You watch tv with pikachu.

Probably the most interesting thing about Pokemon Channel is the emulator it has for the Pokemon Mini handheld.

Its a remake of Generation 1 so your favorite gen 1 Pokemon are accessible again to trade forward for eternity.

On a more serious and less cynical note, it's a really nice port. Very polished, unlike GB Pokemon. Unfortunately for me, I'm bored of the gen1 dex, so without the weird quirks of GB pokemon, I find Fire Red more boring by comparison.

Played off and on for maybe about a year after release, started to lose interest after they started adding paid expansions. I think I was genuinely having a good time, but after a while I could only really play arena and be able to be competitive without buying anything. The voice lines for all the cards were amusing, the goblin cards were my favorite. At least I got some fun out of it at the time.
