That would be really pathetic of nintendo if they do sue and Peta does make a good point about the series. Even though it is a cartoon. The way they treat the pokemon on the show is cruel.
how trolling can you be? there was nothing wrong with Pokemon Peta put the base ball bats and syringes in the hands of the trainers not Nintendo and that's just sick.
You mean its pathetic for Nintendo to do something about terrorists exploiting their property? Well shoot, now that i know your stance im going to start robbing banks in your name.
PETA uses sex to sell their agenda. They are hypocrites. Exploit the female body to save the life of an animal? You don't need to sell female bodies (whom are mostly covered anyway, thank God!)
To make your point, or get it across to the masses.
Missing the point Like Mika, most people are missing the point of these stupid games that PETA release.
Their aim isn't to attack the game because they think the Pokémon are treated cruelly. They just want to use a popular medium (in this case it's Pokémon and a few months ago it was Mario) that will get people talking and hopefully thinking about animal cruelty. Yes it's a very cheap shot and they know it will only cause anger amongst pretty much anyone that isn't a super level 60 vegan master. Using popular games that people love is their dirty tactic of getting a bit of media attention. It works because the gaming community get super pissed and articles pop up everywhere, and PETA get loads of publicity.
I hate PETA with a passion. Not because they're against animal cruelty, but because they're a bunch of hypocritical arseholes.
One of the founders of PETA would be dead if it wasn't for animal testing. Yet she says she's against it.
PETA take in roughly 2000 a year of which about 95% they destroy. Less than 5% get re-homed. Yet PETA picket and abuse animal shelters that keep dangerous animals off the street.
They're associated with and provide funding to a terrorist organisation called ALF (Animal Liberation Front) which firebomb medical research facilities and set fire to homes and threaten to kill people and their families. I'm sure PETA donators love having their money spent to fund organised crime.
LOL Mika. Saddest troll on the net. Last I checked the trainers on the game and the show love their pokemon, and those who don't are always seen as villains. Remember how Ash hated Paul for being heartless towards Pokemon?
Sueing wouldn't work. This would considered parody and PETA would win. This would be bad because now PETA would get publicity, which is the opposite of what we want here.
Dose peta even pay attention to what they protest or do they just close their ears and scream as to not hear anything. Seriously it is said in the show and the games a million times that pokemon WILLINGLY go with trainers and are PARTNERS not slaves. Their "forced moves" are natural abilities they learn. Oh yeah and every time there have been abused or a pokemon who hasn't liked a trainer, they were either set free or go with the main character.
PS black and white were all about this and the pokemon version of PETA were the villains.
I can't wait till nintendo sues them for all the nothing that they have.
I heard that they kill a lot of 'em... If a prospective "rescue" is too "far gone", they put em down. The quotes are there because the actual terms are obviously quite floaty in these scenarios...
PETA isnt even worth a response PETA is pathetic. PETA is just trying to ride on Pokemon now because a new hit game came out they didnt say anything about any other Pokemon game till now.
Well, that site is a bit extremist. Lol. The reason they kill them is financial priority.
In 2009, they killed 99% of the animals they took in. It was started as a good cause, but eventually became all about the money, like many other organizations, unfortunately. :/
They are not real creatures yes, but the point is kids that play Pokemon can learn to treat animals bad, although their parents must be there and explain them that it's just a game and that they should not treat animals in a wrong way. It's not all TVs fault and there's way more violence on others series etc. Parents must teach kids wrong from right, after all in must video games there is violence.
If you're a kid playing a FPS game etc and your parents don't look after you, yes; it's wrong because it can lead to a murderer that's what I'm saying if you don't understand then that's your problem, in top of that Pokemon is rate 'E' for Everyone a FPS is not ...
You make a pretty good point, but as you said, it's rated E for everyone. It's cartoonish. There's absolutely no way to defend PETA on this, next thing you know they will be campaigning against animal abuse on raccoons because Mario uses a Raccoon Suit... oh wait.
Don't get me wrong, I do like what PETA does SOMETIMES or at least what they are supposed to do, but most of the time they just piss me off. I would seriously like to see Nintendo sue them. Teach them a lesson.
SUE! SUE! SUE! SUE!
:D
...can't tell if serious... or lying...

EXACTLY, IT'S NOT REAL.
PETA is a joke from the get go, who gave them the power ???

Can you not see something that obvious?
When are they going to protest Peter Jackson for killing all those orcs, ents, mumakil, and...spoiler alert...King Kong?
I never kick my electric rat. Except on Wednesdays.
Also, SPOILLEEERRRR!!!

Same for assistance animals and almost all pets.
PETA are a bunch of lunatics.
They are more about their own funding than actually taking action against true animal rights violations.
If a prospective "rescue" is too "far gone", they put em down. The quotes are there because the actual terms are obviously quite floaty in these scenarios...
A. NOTHING!

"Are you telling me it's BAD to kill people with an AK-47???? Say it ain't so!"
No shit, sherlock! That's why they're videogames and not real life. :P
But, uh, even I can't help but notice the irony of PETA basing this crap of Pokemon Black/White.
I mean, isn't the whole plot of Black about animal rights?
That was Nintendo's statement regarding what PETA did.
Oh God, PETA is in deep shit now. This will be fun to watch.
