    Pokémon and the Pope

    Pokemon
    Apr 21, 2000

    The Vatican has announced that the trading-card and computer-game versions of
    Pokémon are "full of inventive imagination," have no "harmful moral side effects" and celebrate "ties of intense friendship." Whether that extends to the TV show, His Holiness didn't say. The New York Post, quoting a Thursday story in The Times of London, says The Vatican made its announcement on its satellite TV station, Sat2000, run by the Italian Bishops' Conference. Pokémon: The First Movie opened this week in Italy, where youngsters, like here, have shown a fanatical, um, devotion to the cute monster critters... which do not at this point include "Popémon."
