uh...
Has anyone noticed a few weird things about to supposedly kid-friendly game? Like, how this game teaches you about dating a girl. Pokemon rewards you with a girl's own phone number if you beat up her pet and take her money. Hardly suitable life lessons.
Pokemon also teaches us that catching animals and locking them in PC's for the rest of their life is acceptable, when it is not so by any standards in a humane video game. BTW, how does storing an animal in a PC actually work? Twelve bucks to anyone who tells me.
In Gold, they introduced the day and night system. This was meant to make the world feel real and like your adventure was progressing a long time and not just over the course of one never ending day. But, most of these people in the world remain in the same place. Doesn't anyone sleep? Like, I'm pretty sure it's necessary for human survival...right?
When you really think about it, those Pokemon are darn cute. Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Mew, even Magby. But do you ever stop to think; of the only animals in the world are Pokemon...what are you really eating for dinner?
