what ever point Peta was being hypocritical about make, some one else already did a LONG time agao
Pokemon were quite merrily fighting one another constatnly, and the big ones were destroying the world until humans were introduced as a control agent, weren't they? I could have sworn that's one of the game's storylines... Shouldn't PETA be freeing humans from the pokemon world so the pokemon can get back to their natural behaviour; wontonly destroying themselves?
Honestly, in this case I don't see the problem on their part. It's pretty obvious they're not actually going after Pokemon here, just parodying it to try to get the point that there are actual problems out there. I mean, how many groups of geeky friends haven't joked about the fact that Pokemon is basically about child negligence and animal abuse? I really doubt PETA is stupid enough to actually try to protest Pokemon... but then again, this is PETA, so who knows.
Why can't somebody just start a shooting and bombing rampage in all PETA facilities and offices already? It's like watching a little kid enjoy peeling off scabs and laugh as the scabs leave copious amounts of bleeding before licking the blood.
Wow PETA. I think I speak for a bunch of people when I say, "It took you this fucking long to criticize Pokemon?" Seriously, every one and their dog has made this joke already. Did they just see Egoraptor's video for the first time or something?
I mean, really. "Lolz Pokemon is just dog-fighting." was the "Cake is a Lie" of its time.

While it's true I am the master of a bunch of monsters designed to fit in my pocket, be unleashed upon a moment's notice, and are, for profit I might add, meticulously trained to do battle like a pack of hunting wolves, I am actually giving my Pokémon the most beneficial lifestyle they could ever have.
You see, there's this little thing called "happiness". And not only it is an emotion that can be felt by Pokémon, its growth can actually be numerically and statistically charted. There's a number of ways you can foster and elevate happiness, but the most common and most effective way is to embrace the lifestyle you're so quick to shun: embark on a journey to raise your Pokémon into a lean, mean domination machine. Take the time to level it up. Show the effectiveness of your mutually beneficial relationship by fighting towards and earning badges. Feed it vitamin supplements to raise its combat strength and effectiveness. They actually appreciate the fact you'd take the time to do these things. Not only are they content with it, they're positively ecstatic at the idea of becoming your personal unstoppable monster.
So I want you to take the time to think: whenever your Pokémon, that you keep shackled to its inferior life of being excluded from human interaction and forced to never grow from its wild beginnings, is curbstomped by my healthier, happier, stronger, and all around superior buddy, ask yourself as you bathe in its tears and sorrow: who's the real monster?
So Team Plasma PETA, if you're going to decry what I do for being unethical, I might just award you with a little "hypocrite" badge.
And then I will promptly stomp you into the ground and take the badge back as part of my campaign to be the very best. Because that's just how I roll, and according to statistical and empirical evidence, my Pokémon couldn't be happier any other way.
This has been a satirical response to PETA's (hopefully) satirical Pokemon parody. Both of us are aware that Pocket Monsters are not real animals and vice versa. I just felt like whacking down the in-universe argument.
Fun conjecture: If you take the "battle as a means to grow a healthy symbiotic relationship between Man and Pokemon" approach, then Team Rocket's "Tools of War" philosophy might actually be on higher moral grounds than Team Plasma's "Liberate" philosophy.

...well, at least this one makes sense. Sure, a it's been said to death, but at least they're finally starting to make some form of...coherency.
So, what can I say that hasn't been said? Talk about PETA and you lose, took you long enough, PETA kills more animals than they save, they're not directly attacking the series etc, etc...well, at least I can offer this. If you want to see what's in the game without playing it, have this:

please tell me i'm not the only one who read that and thought "who Da fuq is professor Juniper"?
two words folks Professor Oak, the senile but kindly old man who sends you on your journey, always
and his grandson, Clitoris (Who's name i helpfully reminded to the senile old professor after he forgot)

Hmm, are trolls malice for the sake of malice, or are the trolls just stupid?Zachary Amaranth said:
It is interesting too contemplate. Not for long because after I learned the truth about "them". I refuse too let them have the honor of letting me think.
My thinking on something is a high honor that I give too those who worthy of my thoughts. Heck, most things are worth of that. "they" are on a very short list.
If you all really cared about animal rights you would all be vegans and would support PETA, if you can honestly say that you value the flavour of meat above the suffering of animals, then I will not only respect you, but also call you an abhorant human being.
it's funny, because in black and white, Team Plasma are PETA, they are hypocrites and say all Pokemon should be set free when they want all the best Pokemon for themselves.
This is hilarious, but have PETA no sense of fun?

I saw the title, and my first thought was "Well this'll be good." Turns out I was right, for the sarcastic definition of good. I wonder if Nintendo can pull a McMillen here, and just troll PETA into submission. Wait, McMillen planned that...
