Man I normally dont get angry about stuff like this, but come on ppl that's a joke, I actually played some of it and i had to stop at the ash part.......I literally couldnt take playing that garbage anymore! Thats not what pokemon is about and thats just showing ppl that don't kno alot about pokemon that its bad, parents r gonna see that and stop their kids from playing, i can see it now.......little jimmy has to stop his pokemon adventure because mommy saw that PETA is writing bad stuff about it, and thats just wrong! Man some ppl kno how to get under my skin and they sure did it well. I had respect for what they did helping animals and whatever, but this is taking it too far and I'm not standing for it one bit! I'M GONNA DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS!!!

This is what I get back
" This game offers a lighthearted way to bring attention to the very serious subject of cruelty to animals. The game’s main message is that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way. PETA’s game allows Pikachu and his friends the opportunity to spread the message of Pokémon rights by sharing PETA’s video “Free Me”, which takes viewers on a heartbreaking journey through the horrors of using animals for food, clothing, experimentation, and entertainment. We encourage people to watch the video during the game and to share it on Facebook and Twitter after they’ve won. Rather than “catch ’em all,” in PETA’s game, players get to “free ’em all.”
Humor is often a very useful tool for reaching people who may be put off by a more serious approach, and by sharing this game with others, we can educate people about the ways in which animals are abused. PETA often uses the gaming genre to reach new groups of people—people who might not otherwise be aware of what is happening and who wouldn’t seek out PETA’s more conventional materials. Millions of people have played PETA’s online games. They have fun and laugh and are also encouraged to think about how the games they have been playing have shaped the ways that they think about animals and how their choices can help animals. If people come away from the game both entertained and more compassionate, then we’ve accomplished our goal.
We understand that our game is not to everyone’s taste. PETA does make a point of having something for all tastes, from conservative to radical and from tasteless to refined, and this approach has proved amazingly successful—in the three decades since PETA was founded, it has grown to be the largest animal rights group in the world, with more than 3 million members and supporters worldwide. We’ve had great success in attracting the media’s attention through both serious and slapstick means, including celebrity advertisements, colorful protests, graphic ads, and undercover exposés."
So its supposed to b a joke?
lighthearted?? Humor? I fail to see these things in what they did
Hahaha funny guys, they r just as bad for making it up and thinking of what went into the game!
They had to think of the cruel things that went on, so whos the real bad guys here
Dont mean to rant but come on.......its a kid's game and there is no cruelty in it, none of them even die
They just want someone to pick on
I'm not saying the things they do to help animals arent good, I'm just saying they went the wrong route here
