I hesitate to even call this a game. This is a distraction for littler kids. All it is. A very EXPENSIVE one (this shit like 50 bucks now), but still, a distraction. I guess I'll go through the channels and give a rundown.
Anime Channels- Pichu Bros. Anime split into 5 parts. It's pretty cute. Very interesting that they thrust the Meowth's Party tech demo into it? No clue why.
Prof. Oak Report- Save Room. Fascinating.
Shop N' Squirtle- I actually thought this was kinda cute. Having one of the Thug Squirtles sell you stuff to decorate your room with was cute. I liked it.
Quiz Channels- You either count the pokemon or you sit there and shout at the screen while some dumbass pokemon get shit wrong. Sucks.
Smoochum Shape-Up- Uncomfortable.
Pokemon News Flash- Cute I guess. Gives you the most plot you'll get outta this. I think its hilarious that one of Meowth's "MMHMMS" sounds so clearly like Mario, I genuinely did a double take.
Smeargle's Art Study- Watching Smeargle glaze my hastily painted Pichu Bros logo was very funny. I liked this one.
Mareep Farm- Literal counting sheep. I can't make this up.
Eggzamination- Dude it's a guessing game what the fuck is this?
Slowpoke's Weather Report- Actually rather cute, watching Slowpoke try his best was endearing.
Chansey's Fortune Cookie- I genuinely don't even know what the fuck you do in this one.
Yeah, they blow. But this isn't for me. I know that. But I don't even think littler kids would like it? So I don't know. You can do some walking around and interacting with Pikachu, so hey if you really wanted an even more boring sequel to Hey You Pikachu, here you go I guess. I still don't think it'd entertain kids. The biggest value this game has now is that there's a Pokemon Mini emulator inside. That's rather cool actually. Too bad nothing else here is.

This is like 100% nostalgia but this was my first pokemon thing and it means so much to me
You watch tv with pikachu.
Probably the most interesting thing about Pokemon Channel is the emulator it has for the Pokemon Mini handheld.

Belongs on an oddities list.
Actually kinda cute and novel for the first hour or so, falls off by the second hour. If you payed full price for this game I'm so sorry.
