Back in the late 90's, with the international Pokémon hype, japanese Pokémon-exclusive record label Pikachu Records published a CD and sheetbook bundle called Pokémon: hikeru ka na? (Can you play Pokémon?). 30 or so years later, the only available way to use it is downloading 6GB of images from Internet Archive's slow server, yanking the pictures on a visual translator, look for the music to then play something.

That's why I am even trying to erase Japanese off 90 pages of complicated ilustration pages and come up with easy-to-read wording.

The buttons below take you to what is already done. I have already finished the cover and 7 pages, which include:

• legal notes and an extra note of mine;
• the table of contents;
• How to Enjoy this Book (explains a gimmick involving stickers, Pokémon items and Gym Badges);
• piano tips (including another, this time crucial, gimmick) and
• the whole Red and Blue Opening Theme music sheet.

Two last things:

1.  I'm still trying to find compression methods that don't make the PDF a trainwreck, so the PDF may be large, if you consider 9 megs for 9 pages big.
2. If someone can proofread the translations, I'd be grateful - I'm stuck with Google Translate and hand-rephrasing as I don't even know Japanese.... ... ... ... Send me an e-mail at e-mail indisponível!
