Today we lost a member of the Pokemon community, a designer who worked on a few localized titles, all English. I didn't know where else this could be posted and this seemed the best news location. Though he may not have had a heavy impact, he helped to bring Pokemon to our world in his way.

I heard about this, so it's terrible that he got taken by the destructive side of Mother Nature. I do send my condolences to Eric's family, especially his daughter who survived the storm that killed him.

Well that sucks. I mean, I don't really know what else to say about the situation, that just really sucks. I hope his family is doing okay, its hard to lose a family member so suddenly like that.
