    Dang it PETA, why? You do realize this will only make you lose, not gain, simpathy from the younger gens, don't you?

    Though I have to admit, at first I didn't know whether I should feel angry or impressed. I mean, for a parody, it's a very well made one. It shows somebody actually spent sometime understanding the game (and the fandom! " Do u liek Mudkips?"!!!), insted of pulling together a bunch of outdated stereotypes like most ppl do.

    Does it make it more right if they are trying to traumatize little children?

    Moving on from that point, they probably spent donations on getting some Pokemon fan to tell them what they needed to know. I really wouldn't doubt it.

    Yeah, the information is all there, but where are they to begin? If you were going to make a message attack on Pokemon, you can scratch the surface and use that research to make a simple, yet narrow attack, like many religious people/groups have done. However, this attack was deep, it took a lot of information that you would have to know what to search for in order to make it deep in and of itself.

    For that matter, why be the poor slobs that do all the research by themselves when you can get people that have the "roadmap" to all of the Pokemon information they need? The pay can be as high as the demand since they have a lot of money. What else do they use money for, actually helping poor defensive animals? That's rich.

    No, in PETA's mind, making "sensible" and "not-at-all provocative public service announcements" to alarm many people, is better than doing any work by themselves. Oh, but they do work. Yeah, walking naked on streets is work for them.

    My sentiment is not that "OMG PETA is bashing Pokemon", but more in the way they are using this as a political machine to poison the minds of innocent children.

    I played it and it was stupid. Either way, why are they just now petitioning pokemon when it's been out for 17 years? And we don't make them fight, and if Peta knew anything they would know that the pokemon actually enjoy the competition. A friend and I were compiling reasons Peta weren't justified for petitioning and here's what we came up with.

    It's about making friends and having fun.
    They said that Ash kept Pikachu in a pokeball... I mean really if they're going to petition it they could at least get their facts straight, come on.

    And Team Plasma? They wanted to destroy the universe, if memory serves.

    I watched like 1 EP in D/P and saw that Dawn asked about Piplup battling.

    They're even AGAINST abuse. For example, Paul D/P.

    Within my lifetime, I've done a lot of walking. I started my journey walking on a little path called Route 1. Little did I know that walking down that route would lead me onwards to a road that went by the name of Victory. Just west of Victory Road, I walked up an entire mountain where atop stood a silent trainer who was one of the mightiest I had ever faced. I've walked, through sandstorms, across the hard desert of Hoenn. I've walked through pelting hail, across the snow covered terrains of Sinnoh. And now as I look back on all my travels I find myself walking across the Skyarrow Bridge of Unova. It took a lot of walking through tall grass patches to get where I am today...But it was worth the walk.

    Probably because they want to liberate our pets from us so we'll have no animals to defend us when they break into our houses and kill our families.

    The real Team Plasma making a parody of the game on where they appear, they seriously have nothing else to make up. First they make "Mario Kills Tanooki" and now this, what's next, are they going to complain about Animal Crossing? You got to be kidding me, instead of wasting money making flash games, they should use it to actually save animals.
    I'm waiting for them to say that playing Angry Birds promotes cruelty to birds and pigs. I would not put it past these nutjobs.

    All I can say about it is this:

    Dear PeTA,

    How many animals died, waiting for a rescue that never came, because you nitwits were too busy farting out this ridiculous "parody" game? I'd tell you to be ashamed of yourselves but since this is getting you guys tons of attention, you won't really care. Now go dissipate like the fart in the breeze that you are! And take that stupid "game" with it's so-called message with you!

    Sincerely,

    Silvy

    P.S. Maybe next time you guys can do something constructive with your time like volunteer at an animal shelter. But you're PeTA. You won't do anything useful with your time now, will you?

    May you be waiting for me in the next Gen and forevermore.
    These are my babies. Be kind to them.

    PETA would actually rather see animals die than be with humans. I knew a girl who was a PETA member, and she would always dump this "Animals shouldn't be with people, locked inside their houses! They should be free and blah blah blah!" I used to think PETA was a great organization that only cared about saving neglected animals, but instead they're just pompous idiots whose beliefs make no sense! And the shelter they run in PA has nearly a 100% kill rate, because they would rather euthanize animals than give them to loving homes.

    Pokemon are virtual, not real, and PETA wastes time and resources on this? Unreal.

    Actually, supposedly PETA contracted the group that makes the games on the Adult Swim website to make this game.

    Actually, PETA euthanizes the majority of animals they "save" or have in their custody, so no, that to them is not "constructive."

    Don't be fooled; this isn't some stand against a video game. It's just a publicity stunt to get attention. And it's working. When we stop giving them the time of day, they'll stop making these games.

    I stopped playing after 5 minutes, it's was stupid for PETA trying protecting cartoons instead of protecting real life Polar Bears IMO.

    It sounds like they are killing two birds with one stone. You get people who are good entertainers of shock value that know how to make games, and you have people that are more likely to be resourceful for this type of information about the series.

    "Contracted"? Did that involve money, or was it just an entertained thought?

    Yes, PETA paid these game-makers to make this game the same way Adult Swim pays these game-makers to make games for their website. This is perfectly legal, and I was only making an observation, not criticism. If you have the money to hire someone to do things you alone cannot do, you hire them. This isn't some horrible thing that we can really fault them for, especially not when there are so many actual criticisms we can make.

    My only beef with that would be that they could have paid, say, an animal pharmacy, or a no kill animal shelter for the actual benefits to animals. Now maybe this wasn't an expensive thing to make, but with advertisements, especially provoking ones, you have to know how to pick your battles. To PETA's credit, they made a very provocative advertisement that fooled some of the people, but for Pete's sake, I don't think it is fair to anybody to make a wrongful attack as a publicity stunt to bolster ego.

    As I said, they are really the Ghetsis of animal rights. They attempt to use powerful words to swing people to their favor, and they use children (the N of their plans) as bait for these attack campaigns.

    I'm mostly over this anyway. PETA is dumb. They have been dumb, they will do something dumb later on.
