    Evryday A kid plays A pokemon game or watches the pokemon cartoon The kid wishes he/she could be that pokemon or have powers witch by the way is impossible. The kids steal hurt and do lots of things to try to be A pokemon or have powers like pokemon. I'm not saying pokemon is wrong but still more people evryday are getting more violent.
     
    I think this is more of a Pok?mon General topic. =\ *moves*
     
    O_o; Not really. It's more of then adults who make kids promote violence. Pokemon promotes no sense of over-excessive violence. Unlike some games, like Tekken, Spiderman, and more.

    Now if you're linking Pokemon violence to the battles and moves, that's very untrue. Pokemon battles are meant as fun or just to earn more respect from your friends.

    Of course not, if you really consider it, there's almost (Notice I said ALMOST) no way that it could.
     
    O.o

    Well, if you believe that Pokemon bring violence what rings something like Power Rangers, Xmen, GTA vice city! Pokemon is something that I can't spell, Pokemon is Strategy! Only the 20-30% is battles because to battle with other Pokemon when you have not Badges and your Pokemon is allready ok to beat the Gym, y to make battle. Ok if you say that you need battles I have to say that battle on Pokemon is not like Xmen's one or Power Rangers. And for example at Pokemon, Pokemon are not killed or something, only battles and win or lose. At GTA vice city you are killing people all the time, so where is the Vionelnce on Pokemon?
     
    Besides Teletubbies and Barney pretty much, Pokemon is already the most friendly show possible. Pokemon are trained and tamed so they can never "kill" anyone. Even the bad guys' Pokemon too. And for heaven's sake, an epsisode got cut out because a gun was in it. How can Pokemon be violent?

    On the other hand, before we stop Pokemon from being aired for being too violent, what about Digimon where cities actually do get destroyed, or Gundam Wing where 1000 nameless pilots get killed in each epsiode?
     
    Thats really funny, common Pokemon are like little animals..they never die in battle...Ash and Pikachu have a friendly battle now and then!

    Its not violence..


    Poppy-cock!
     
    Meh, a LOT of things kids are into are blamed for violence, but seriously I don't believe Pok?mon promotes violence. Yes the monsters battle but it's a friendly compertition, there are a LOT more violent kids things out there.

    Most of the violence I see releated to Pok?mon are kids mugging each other for cards, again it's not really the fault of Pokemon, it's cos those kids seriously need their heads looking at and probably weren't brought up right.
     
    It's the world's rule: If something is popular, it's dangerous. Example they say, that Harry Potter is from dark side and J.K.Rowling is devil . Headless, if I can say. They haven't even read the books.

    And pok?mons, they have only seen when Charizard is attacking or Ivysaur is using Leech Life. They really join, if they find something what could be bad to kids.

    But, it IS true, if in some family they haven't be good to their kids... But it's not only pokemon what made it, never. There's always something else and bigger,

    I think.

    Tecnically it is showing how we should oppose stealing and hurting others.....I mean the main charcters do things to SAVE the world not hurt anyone......yeesh....Baka...

    Yes, guns were cut out of Pokemon, but in one of the most popular kids shows, Looney Toons, Elmer Fudd chases Bugs Bunny with a shotgun in almost every episode and shoots Daffy a couple times...

    It is just parents wanting to blame their inability to raise children right on something else, and since Pokemon wasn't made in the US they find it is much easier to blame it and get the government agencies on their side.
     
    God another hipocritical person who has nothing better to do then find a way to start something. This is just like the people who try to shut down music industries or sue a band. You are just finding an excuse for someone to be violent, when it is really a movie or something that the child thought was cool or wants to imitate it. It is a one in a million chance that there will be a bad outcome. Which also means that a little violence can not lead to a bad thing. Perhaps a little bit of violence can actually help ones self be more assertive and it could lead to good leading skills.
     
    If Pok?on is violent, let's say Super Mario is violent, Zelda is gory, and Hamtaro and Kirby are extremely violent.

    Come on, Pok?mon isn't violent. >_>
     
    Violence, maybe a little..but hey this show is practiacly revolved around friendship..so its not that bad =/
