After playing through Pokemon Black and Blue, I can only say that I had a really hard time opening those treasure chest. So I didn't. So much bullshit, if I would have opened the treasure chests I think my head would have exploded from the bullshittery.

Seriously though I sincerely and wholly regret giving PETA my time, energy, and website traffic. I think I've had enough of them forever.

Lol, this can't be serious. I mean, I'm sure it is but PETA is grasping for straws here (I think that's the right phrase).

Is PETA run by trolls? They are like a parody of themselves by now, it's like they don't want to be taken seriously.

Pretty short, you just do 3 or 4 fights. It's pretty hilarious if you have a very high tolerance for bullshit.

Took some screenshots to give you an idea of what you're in for.

The fact that Pokemon is morally problematic is the reason that I love it so much. I love animal abuse simulation!

...am I the only one?

I don't think you kill any pokemon in the whole pokemon games, in fact isnt the reason given in red/blue for you winning is that you loved your pokemons more then your rival. In the current games theirs even alot of mini games that revolves about making you pokemon look good (cool, beautiful contest) and walking in the park with them so its alot of stuff in there endearing you to your pokemons

silly silly peta

PETA clearly doesn't even have people who intensely play the game or watch the show. It's all about mushy relationship building and training and working hard and your Pokemon never ever fucking dying (only fainting).

This is actually hilarious. If they don't understand the difference between reality and a video game...

Nintendo on PETA "Thank you for saving us some advertising money."

If anything, PETA let us know that Pokémon Black and White Versions 2 was released in North America recently (7th Oct.) I probably didn't get to know without PETA. Nintendo must be paying PETA for advertising, or it doesn't make sense.

So an article today popped up saying that PETA has gotten a little vocal on their beliefes towards Pokemon.

Animal rights group PETA has condemned the Pokémon media franchise and video game series, saying it “paints a rosy picture of what amounts to thinly veiled animal abuse.


"The Pokémon series tells the stories of young “trainers” who befriend wild critters called Pokémon, help them grow stronger, and coach them through a series of non-fatal sparring matches against other trainers."

“Much like animals in the real world, Pokémon are treated as unfeeling objects and used for such things as human entertainment and as subjects in experiments. The way that Pokémon are stuffed into pokéballs is similar to how circuses chain elephants inside railroad cars and let them out only to perform confusing and often painful tricks that were taught using sharp steel-tipped bullhooks and electric shock prods …if PETA existed in Unova, our motto would be: Pokémon are not ours to use or abuse. They exist for their own reasons. We believe that this is the message that should be sent to children."


Source : http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidewalt/2012/10/08/peta-pokemon-animal-abuse/


This has to be THE most ridiculous thing i have ever heard in my life (next to PETA complaining about the rats being eaten in a Call of Duty campaign mission). I grew up with pokemon both the show and the games and it did nothing but give me great experiences. PETA is really digging deep to find any sort of publicity for them now.





Wasn't this the whole premise of the team plasma thing from the last 2 games? Only it turned out to be a conspiracy to destroy the world.

Get premeditated PETA.

Is it funny that PETA was pre-empted by the bad guys in B/W basically being them and showing how much of a dumbass idea it is?

Rofl didn't even think of that but its true. This nonsensical attack on Pokemon is really just free advertising for Nintendo with pretty much no repercussions. Nobody's going to take this PETA announcement seriously.

Well I didn't know a new pokémon game was coming out before I saw this thread, and I might want ot take a look at it and maybe buy it... and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. That's free advertisement, I wouldn't sue if I was Nintendo!
