I had a Tamagotchi, but it was the original Digimon toys that I was really obsessed with. I got my friend into it too so that I had someone to battle with. We were even raising them in class. We had all sorts of hypotheses about what made them stronger, which were probably based on no real evidence. I had a bulking-cutting strategy where I force fed my 'mon to increase its weight and then trained it until it reached the minimum weight for its rank.

I picked up an anniversary digivice a few years ago, I should replace the battery and raise some more digimon.

The new Digimon ones are apparently ridiculously cool, I have one of the "X" models but haven't really taken the time to mess with it yet. My one buddy has been crazy about them though, trying to buy every version of it (a pretty even mix between collectors reasons, and loving playing with them)
