Pokemon for the real world

Kids can remember hundreds of Pokemon characters but very few animals. The solution? The Phylomon Project is an open source initiative aiming to make Pokemon-type cards for actual animals.

Update: Xeko is an "eco-adventure game" that features Pokemon-like cards for hundreds of real animals. (thx, josh)
