your reading to much into it.
It's impossible that that's not what they intended, from what I can see the ruined area is in the right spot to be ground zero, and the Pokemon that caused it just
happens to be 9'11''? No fucking way that's a coincidence, if they say it is they're backpedaling.
Now as to the matter of whether it's offensive? Yeah it is. It's not "boycott Nintendo or Pokemon" offensive. It's not even "get a little angry" offensive.
It's "look at it, think for a minute, say to yourself "yeah, that's kinda offensive"" and them immediately move on and forget about it, offensive.
In short it's offensive, but it's hardly a big deal.
