I've finally figured it out...The Truth about Pokemon. I'm scared, and, possibly, scarred for life. I wasn't sure who to tell this shocking discovery, so, I though, maybe, just maybe, I could post here.
I suppose I should start at the beginning...
I, too, was once a Pokemon addict. I was determined to "catch 'em all". And, I guess I did. But I got older, and Pokemon lost its appeal. But a little later, I started thinking... Why was it, that whenever you lost, you either blacked out or whited out, depending on the version, and you woke up in the "hospital" with less money than you had before? Why, when you won, did you have more money? I started to realize it wasn't the children's game it's made out to be. Why? Because to put it simply, the point of the game is to KO other people's pets and steal their money. Unless, of course, that was the point. What if they were really trying to teach poor innocent children that it's right to try to kill other people's pets, and steal their money [insert horrified gasp here]… Just imagine poor, innocent little children, having their little pets attack each other, and then stealing the "loser's" money. Imagine the little child's response when the mother demands to know "why?".
"But Mommy, that's what they do on Pokemon! I didn't know it was bad."
I never thought of it that way
