I had a pocket pikachu, you fed pikachu by walking, which is a cool concept. If I could feed myself by walking, I'd become a backpacker like tomorrow.

Everything from fridges and washing machines have been found to do this.

It’s the reality of a market where manufacturers are seeking additional revenue and consumers have either no knowledge or no choice.
