Digimon, Posers of Pokemon?

Here is the scoop with Pokemon and Digimon (Well what I have heard). Pokemon did come out after Digimon (Kepp listening) but, the people who made Digimon are also the creators of Pokemon. In Japan the dude who made it eventually sold Digimon to bandai and started the thing with Pokemon. So that means there are like no posers. I also heard Pokemon and Digimon copied off Monster rancher. That's Bull sh**. Monster rancher is weak and copied off Pokemon (well in my opinion).

Remeber this is what I heard and may not be true.
