Summary: Shamelessly cute, which is somehow okay
Review: What is it with these Pokémon? I want to hate them. I want to despise the commercialism. I want to gripe about the cheap production quality. But I can't! Lord help me. I LIKE THE POKEMON!

They're sort of like the Tellytubbies. Grit your teeth and watch an episode sometime. For no reason you can pinpoint, you begin to relax. The gentle primary colors soothe your eyes. You find yourself humming along with the benign little songs. And for about half an hour, you're not rushing to some pointless meeting, or hammering out a status report that will be out of date before it gets read. You're taking a "time out" and you're loving it.

The Pokémon are just like that, but in 152 different flavors. Jigglypuff, the star of this video, is a hybrid of a karaoke diva, the little singing fairies from Mothra, and Marshmallow Fluff. She's drawn in perfect circles. You know she's gotta be Mr. Bubble's niece or soemthing. And she sings. And everyone falls asleep. And in a pouty pink huff, Jigglypuff draws grafitti on everyone's faces.

That's about it. Really. Simple as can be. Cute and cuddly and squishy little fluffy monsters, and cute and cuddly little songs, and... zzzzzzzz...

Oh yeah, kids may like it too. I don't really know. I don't know any kids.
