0 Pocket World (Formerly Pokemon World)

This is the new magazine from the makers of Pokemon World that's been going for a few issues now. Pokemon World ran for over 100 issues, it had a great run. It was decided that Pokemon World would expand to containg more monster related franchise content, but would still include plenty of Pokemon and Pocket World was born. With Pocket World you can expect the populer reguler features that Pokemon World had, just now they will be open to over monster franchises So theirs still the likes of Ask Proffesor Yew and the design a monster section that reguler Pokemon World readers will know. Now the magazine features articles on YuGi Oh!, Moshi Monsters and Bakuyugan to name some, with the reguler features now being about these franchises too. The mags still packed with free gifts like Pokemon World was, things like sweets, stationary, books and trading cards. I think that giveing a book sample is a good idea, something the previous magazine did, readers may well discover a book that they like from these and choose to get the whole book (as I'm sure the publishers would like). I liked the books that Pokemon,World themselves added to the mag that were often about the Pokemon cards or video games. The books about Pokemon have continued along with the other franchises it now covers. The articles of the mag it's self are well laid out and clear, works nicely with the mags colourfull and fun template.
Perhaps the magazine makers may still release Pokemon specials every so often too, as that is such a big monster franchise. All in all a good magazine that is written in a way fans can get information on the brands it features in an informative and intreasting style, in the way Pokemon World did previously.
