I know what you said.

Bulbapedia is a Wikipedia site on all things related to Pokemon.

Likewise, there are others like Zeldapedia (Legend of Zelda), Mariowiki (Mario), Arwingpedia (Star Fox), and Smashwiki (Super Smash Bros.).
dont forget wikitroid!
Quote:Uri Geller

In November 2000, Uri Geller, a psychic who claims to be able to bend spoons, tried to sue Nintendo for £60 million (the equivalent of US $100 million), claiming that Kadabra, known as Yungerer in Japan, was an unauthorized parody of himself. Besides Kadabra's use of bent spoons to enhance its Psychic powers, the katakana for its name, ユンゲラー, is visually similar to the transliteration of his own name into Japanese (ユリゲラー).

He also claimed that Kadabra was anti-Semitic in nature, with the star on its forehead and lightning bolts resembling the logo of the Nazi SS. He is quoted as saying: "Nintendo turned me into an evil, occult Pokémon character. Nintendo stole my identity by using my name and my signature image."

The lawsuit was thrown out of court. Despite this, there has not been a Kadabra card in the Trading Card Game since Skyridge in 2003, perhaps as a precaution against Geller's history of lawsuits. Abra and Alakazam cards, have continued to be printed, despite the fact that this makes it impossible to play an Alakazam card in matches that prevent the use of old cards without a card that specifically allows the play of evolved Pokémon.

Team Plasma: PETA

All these stuff about "leting free your Pokemon, Pokemon are not your slaves, bla bla bla" reminds me PETA.
In my opinion, developers from nintendo just copied some things from real world to make pokemon more interesting. I dont think they wanted to insult black or jewish people or revive dictators in their game.

Also, about Team Plasma, dont forget that their real goal was to make everyone release their pokemon so they would be the only ones with pokemon.
All these controversy theories are just for fun and not to be taken seriously. Just like my quote about Team Plasma. But after finishing the game I wondered if people from PETA want animals to be free in order to be controlled by them. Sarcastic
I know that. And the assholes that sue nintendo for "supporting satanism" have no understanding of what fun is.

As about Pokemon supporting satanism I made a theory* (humoristic of course) which I talked about at the meeting yesterday. And it's all about Archeus being one of the archangels that rebelled against God and so Archeus created Pokemon. And since Satan was an ex-archangel that rebelled against God, Archeus and Pokemon generally can be considered satanic as well. This is a good material for a fan-fiction thread or the spamming section so I'll save the details for there. Toungue

*well it's not exactly my theory but I read about it on danbooru and I found it funny
