Doko Demo Issyo (どこでもいっしょ, Together Everywhere) is a video game series created and developed by BeXide and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, releasing mainly on PlayStation systems and known for introducing Toro Inoue, who went on to become a PlayStation mascot.
The series revolves around characters known as Pokepi (derived from "Pocket People") and their interactions with the player, which often incorporate verbal communication through text input. Words entered by the player will then see use throughout the game, typically through their use by the Pokepi characters after having the words taught to them.
Mainly because of this system being difficult to convert to other languages, the series remained exclusive to Japan for many years until Toro! Let's Party!, became the first to receive translations for other Asian countries, including English.
Toro's Friend Network was the first entry to be released outside of Asia, followed by Toro and Friends: Onsen Town being the first to feature the series' signature communication system in other languages. Outside of the main franchise's games, Doko Demo Issyo is also known for its appearances in and collaborations with other media.
