So I was on DA one night and me and some people got into a mini-debate about "pokémon rights". Its like animal rights, but for pokémon. So tell what you think? Do you think its ok to eat pokémon? To battle them? Dress them up for contest and what-not....of course this is all speaking techniquely and hypothetically. So just make your voice known on where you stand for pokémon rights.

=sigh= I suppose I will have to break the ice. A friend of mine said to me one day,"Poor pokemon. They are kidnapped from their natural environments and forced to fight each other." I stared at him and said, "Dude they want to fight. If you go to Canalave City (sp chck) and read i the library it says that they want to be found and trained." He told me that was a load of crap. What do you all think?

... I don't think I could really ever consider Pokemon to have rights. xD I guess yah, the whole thing is a dark concept if you think about it - especially in the context of things like the Pokemon Black creepypasta. But other than that, there's not much to say. It certainly seemed all right when we were kids and probably even more sensitive to pain and whatnot, so why not now?

Pokemon are pixels created by people with a computer. They need no rights.

Pokemon are pixels. They have no soul.

O___O

 

 

Even if they did reflect their 'natures' and showed some personality, it would be okie dokie for me.

They're animals, more or less, so they fight. 

Eating pokemon? Hell yeah!

Dressing pokemon up and putting them in competitions? Awesome! 

 

Pokemon is a game primarily designed to entertain kids over three years of age. Kids don't care about rights. xD

 

(But omg if youz ttly fink bout it, wut bout all dose homeles peeps in pokemanz?)

the creater of pokemon already stated people eat pokemon

farfetched almost went extinct because people think they taste good with leeks

"hey u two stop fighting D:<"
"USE HYPERBEAM"
i don't get their reasoning, stop fighting you two, then later they tell them to beat the crap out of each other
does anyone else remember when pikachu almost died and ash stood there and had to think about it -_-? just wondering
