There is even a digital thermometer so that the user can see how hot things are. Of course, just to make sure that nothing goes on without the user seeing it, the whole thing is behind a glass panel!

20. Pokémon Wins Challenge - 2011-04-19 06:00:36-04
    It seems that Pokémon is still in its winning ways, despite being a few years old! However, what we are interested here is not the game or the characters, but the Pedometer that came free with the Pokémon Heart Gold or Pokémon Soul silver games for the Nintendo DS. This device despite being red and white in colour is fairly unimpressive to look at, but a study has found that this free device is better than most of the others on the market. The study was carried out by Lorraine Lanningham-Foster of Iowa State University and it was found that the Pokémon free pedometer is more accurate that most of the others on the market today, which is quite impressive by anyone's standards.
