Welp, we see who got upset from this thread. Me, I would be mad as well, but when I noticed just how much effort they actually put into this, I instead just laughed and loled as I played it. PETA may be a joke, but good lord they did their research in making the game. I expected butchered names, or grossly inaccurate depictions of the Pokemon/characters, APPEARANCE-WISE. The only thing that they got wrong (as far as I saw) was Pikachu NEVER got into a pokeball. Everything else that PETA twisted around to spin support for them, whatever.
Inb4 we start seeing people cosplay as the final boss from that game.
Hey look what I found.

So, basically PETA again tried to outrage people by targeting a decently sized demographic and trough that get a lot of exposure?
The result?
Pokémon fans love it and make fun of it and aren't generally too bothered by it.
Good job, PETA.
And yes, people already started cosplaying the characters.

I for one find it deplorable that the lot of you sit around all day enjoying a game where you capture animals and force them to fight each other until they become so tired or injured that they cannot sustain consciousness anymore.
For shame.

Sorry I couldn't hear you over my overly realistic deer hunter game. Oh goddamit, you distracted me and missed my headshot, half it's jaw's missing though

Protest moves?
Well... it was amusing. That slowpoke, i liek mudkipz, and how are there trading cards before the charas existed.
Also, for god's sake, it's a game! A video game series!
And Gosh, you totally put Ash wrong there.

What's also with Black&Blue? I don't get it.

I think they are referring to the colorization of the bruising "I'm going to leave you black and blue chump!"

[MENTION=3175]IllegallySane[/MENTION]; where did you find that? It wasn't from the game right? I didn't play it all the way through.

I found this game more entertaining than Maplestory.

Oh wow... PETA's at it again. First it's Super Tanooki Skin 2D, and now Pokemon?
PETA is PITA (Abbreviation for Pain In The Ass)

Peta a better game designer than wizet? I'm somehow okay with this, at least they are trying to protect something...obnoxiously
Peta part 2:
POKEMON FORCED TO IMBREED. KEPT CAPTIVE UNTIL DELIVERED.

Know Your Meme had it up. Presumably a 4chan Pokemon user drew it. And how didn't you get to the end? It's just 4 battles, very quick if you spam the protest moves to debuff, and then use super effective moves to beat them faster. Amusingly each "human" has a type (one of them is weak to electric attacks, another is weak to water), and attribute to their attacks. Some are obvious, some aren't. It all depends on who you use.

I think it was petition. Those hurt a lot. Apparently.

I didn't play past the first trainer. I was laughing too hard.

^this, but seriously who ever wrote this game had excellent knowledge of pokemon. I'm impressed.
Also, inb4 PokePeta metagame.
