I think forcing Pokemon into tiny little balls and forcing them to hurt others of their race (not species....) until one faints from pain/exhaustion is evil and mean. thoughts?

But they're not alive! They're just data allocations on a memory chip that run on previously programmed instructions! They can't 'feel' anything!

Samebull...

oh, if you're confused.... I used abstractions because "Pokemon" or "monster" doesn't really work.

Why is this little fish a monster?
It really won't eat you!

Maybe it is nice, it doesn't change anything. "Monster" doesn't mean "mean" ("bad guy", "eater", "whatever").
It means, umm, well, yeah, you know.

monster means MONSTER!!!
And a MONSTER is a big, bad guy (or thing) who wants to eat you.

Looks this little fish like a hungry monster?

NO!

A MONSTER is not (always) a big, bad guy (or thing) who wants to eat you.
A monster is a non-registered living being.
^This is a non-meaning sentence.

Monster is usually used with a negative connotation, but in many cases it's not a derogatory term.

(On a side note, I just used some monstrous terms up there) :P

In the case of Pokemon, the original name was "Pocket Monsters". It was shortened to Pokemon when they realized the term could be misinterpreted. But Pokemon are, in a sense, monsters. If they were to suddenly appear here (assuming Pokemon never existed) they would be labeled as monsters before getting a classification.

Hope that clears up a bit of the confusion ;D

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
