PETA's Pokemon?
So, PETA has decided to create some sort of parody of the videogame/anime/cardgame/whatever called Pokemon, with the intention of sending a message that the game endorses animal violence. (see http://features.peta.org/pokemon-bla...-white-parody/)
Although they might not have noticed, they are infringing Nintendo's copyright policy (see http://www.nintendo.com/corp/copyright.jsp)

This could quite possibly send PETA into some sort of legal trouble with Nintendo. Anyways, I'd just like to know how the toribash community feels about this.
this is so incredibly stupid, implying that kids who play pokemon actually make their animals fight
pennis and also dicke and balls
I've been saying this for years lol. All pokemon is, is a bunch of little kids and old pedo's solving their problems by making innocent little animals fight.

Sick.
Considering the statistics show that PETA has a 97% kill rate among it's "rescued" animals due to the decision that they are "unfit for adoption" and immediately submitted to euthanasia, pokemon should be the least of their problems. As for Citizen, don't let your obvious bias against Pokemon cloud your judgement on an issue like this. This whole ordeal is PETA being stupid, which has happened and will continue to happen.
This game's bullshit. Since when Water weak to Normal? Bunch of silly-geese. Ghestis's coat was a nice touch though..

they just want us to stop using pokemans so they could start using them, leaving us defensless.

Pokemon isn't inhumane.

Caught pokemon are quickly domesticated like the common house dog while building a deep emotional bond with their trainer. In the anime, if the Pokemon would be happier in the wild, they're released. Examples:

Ash's Charizard- Ash loses his strongest Pokemon because he wanted Charizard to be happy with the Charizard training ground.

Ash's Butterfree- Soon as Ash's Butterfree found its soulmate Ash lets it free to live happily.

Ash's Pikachu- Ash's best friend is still left with the option to live with a damn tribe of Pikachus. Ash ran away and Pikachu came and ran back to him because they were such amazing friends.

It's been detailed time and time again that Pokemon are competitive whether it be fights or beauty pageants. They want to battle, it happens in the wild without trainers anyways.

There's nothing inhumane about it.

Jesus H. Christ, unwanted drama and an ass game from PETA. They deserve to be robbed.
(And yes, I may be going a bit too far.)
