“Jake”, known as Hiroshi Sotomura on The PokéCommunity, is a contributing writer and one of the founders of PokéCommunity Daily. Being introduced to Pokémon after watching “The Water Flowers of Cerulean City”, Jake sought out to obtain the just-released copy of Pokémon Yellow, and became an avid fan of the games and the TV show. For whatever reason, he owns several consoles just to play different copies of the games.
