Top 10 Disturbing Pokemon Facts

Life Is But A Competition

When growing up, you're suppose to learn that life is an adventure. You're suppose to have fun and learn along the way, as you accomplish whatever goal you have in mind. But in the Pokemon World, life is but a competition. Almost every child wants to catch Pokemon and use them for their own will. They train these Pokemon in hopes of one day being able to defeat anyone in battle with them. They challenge countless number of trainers along the way, sometimes they lose and sometimes they win; either way, it's helping them get better and closer to their goal. After a certain amount of time, they begin to challenge gyms, where they receive badges to show just how good they are. After collect all eight badges, they can challenge the elite four and then the Champion. Sure, some trainers are nice and care for their Pokemon outside of battle. But not all trainers are this way... Some even push their Pokemon to the point of death, which just means that Pokemon was a failure. It doesn't matter what it takes, these trainers are willing to do anything to prove that they are indeed the best... Even if that means wasting precious time or losing someone that should have been a friend.

This is a harsh way to looking at the Pokemon World as a whole, but it's the way the life in it is promoted. Nothing matters to these kids besides being the best, and their parents promote and allow this competitive way. Like mentioned, some of these trainers are good people who care for their friends outside of battles. But others... Others just don't care... Much like the famous Motorhead song says, "It's all about the GAME, and how YOU play it. It's all about CONTROL, and if you can TAKE it."
