Keitai Denjū Telefang (Keitai Denjyuu Terefangu), often shortened to Telefang 1 (since there are two games in this series), is a video game for Game Boy Color released by Smilesoft in Japan. It is available in two versions, namely Power version and Speed version.
The name
Keitai means mobile in Japanese, while Den means electric, jū means monster, and Telefang is a English word in Katakana to mean something like Telephone Fangs (Fangs as in monsters).[1]
Plot
In the year 2020 it was possible to travel to the Denjū world using D-Shoots, a special mobile phone. Making friends and sharing telephone numbers with Denjū became popular among humans.
The protagonist, Shigeki, though originally arrived in the Denjū world on accident, he became determined to travel the world with his new Denjū companion, and make more new friends while he was there.

Sequel
- Main article: Telefang 2
- Main article: Differences between Telefang 1 and Telefang 2
Smilesoft released a sequel to Telefang 1 for the Game Boy Advance, with new Denjū appearances and a slightly different style of battle, where the player can intervene in a middle of a battle to use items on the Denjū. Move types were also introduced.
The sprites were also redrawn, and had better graphics and music.
Bootleg
- Main article: Pokémon Diamond and Jade
Keitai Denjū Telefang was originally only available in Japanese. However, certain pirates in China bootlegged it under the name of Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Jade. [1] The translation process was not really successful as Engrish was used, and certain profanities were also used. This resulted in a poor reception towards the game, leading many people to think it is a Pokémon ripoff.
The sprites and maps remain the same, changing only the text to English. The ability to name the character or the Denjū was also not present, and the game would also not load a save properly. Many other glitches were also present.
