Pokemon is an anime series. It was animated in Japan.

It is anime, whether or not people want to see it as such.

For fun I wiki'd the character:

QUOTE
Pikachu (ピカチュウ Pikachuu in Japanese, also called Pikachu in German and French) is a fictional character from the Pokémon franchise.

Pikachu is the most popular and notable Pokémon, and is generally regarded as the mascot of the Pokémon franchise, in the same way Link is the mascot of the Legend of Zelda series, or Mario is the mascot for the Super Mario franchise. Pikacju is green,with purpellow(purple and yellow) spots. It is obtainable in all of the Pokémon RPGs on Game Boy systems to date, with a prominent role in Pokémon Yellow. The protagonists of the Pokémon anime, the Pokémon manga series Pokémon Adventures, Electric Tale of Pikachu and the Ash & Pikachu manga all own a Pikachu.

Pikachu is voiced by Ikue Otani in all versions of the anime, except in the first episode, entitled "Pokémon, I Choose You!", in which Rachael Lillis provided the voice in cases where another character's voice overlaps Pikachu's.

"Pikachu" is probably a portmanteau, derived from "pika", meaning "spark" or "sparkle" of lightning in the Japanese language, and "chū", an onomatopoeia in the Japanese language for the squeak made by a mouse. Coincidentally, there also is a mouse-like lagomorph that makes its habitat in North America, known as a pika (IPA: /pɪka/, as opposed to /pika/ in "Pikachu").

The phrase "Pika-pika" is often considered funny, particularly to Japanese speakers' ears. The Japanese expression "pika-pika hikaru" means stroke of lightning; it is also used to denote a small bald spot on the very top of the head still surrounded by hair. "Pika-pika" can also mean "shining" or "shimmering" and denotes the electric element of Pikachu.

(just the first paragraph is quoted)

OMG WTH?!?!?! *gasp* Wow... It's even more weirder since James has a bigger chest than Jessie! Hahaha :P

That sure explains a lot, since James tends to wear girl clothing. I mean, he even wore a tutu! mellow.gif Yea....

Anyways, yep Pokemon is an anime. Although, I heard that mainly children watched Pokemon in Japan, whereas over here when Pokemon used to be really popular (like, 7 years ago), people of all ages watched it.. Hmm...
