I’ve been playing Pokemon since I was a young kid, I’m 15 now. I recently threw away all my Pokemon Cards, sold my latest Pokemon game, and got rid of my books. I don’t own anything Pokemon now. When I was younger I would misbehave and get into trouble while being addicted to Pokemon. Now ever since I’ve got rid of Pokemon I haven’t gotten into any trouble but been better.
I got rid of Pokemon because I saw this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqwgVo33dyA
The original video is in Spanish but it was translated in English. That girl spoke with clarity, she wasn’t nervous, she didn’t think of what to say it all came to her naturally, she didn’t say any “umms” in her interview.So I knew this video was true.
I’ve watched that video 3 times, first time I saw it I thought that Pokemon couldn’t be bad. Second time I began to start having doubt and started asking myself questions about Pokemon being evil. The third time I watched it I became convinced that Pokemon was satanic.
I owned a Pokemon site a while back, and I don’t want to be held responsible for anyone’s life if Pokemon is evil and they go to hell because I created it.I wanted to change my site’s theme but instead the members started to troll me.One of the sites I was affiliated with took advantage of this and stole some members from my site to theirs. So I left that site, deleted my account and never went back to it, only once or twice to check on it.
I also read two different articles. They’re both the opposite, one is defending Pokemon and giving positive statements, the other is saying negative things about Pokemon. These articles are both well written.

Positive article : http://leto_chan.tripod.com/pokemon/editorial9.html
I really don’t know what to believe, should I follow my own path? Or be another lemming and believe everything I hear on the Internet? I would like to hear your thoughts, especially if you’re a Priest because I’m a religious person, I’m Catholic.
I really don’t care if you say that God isn’t real, or the Devil isn’t real, your opinion doesn’t matter to me. Just because you never experienced anything, or have legit proof. That doesn’t mean they’re not real. I know they’re real, so kindly don’t say any negative things.

Is Pokemon Evil Or Satanic?
Posted on August 18, 2012.
pokemon is for kids, and when i was a kid it was fun collecting the cards and stuff, there’s nothing evil about it, please get real.
Why don’t you pray about?
Does it bring you closer to Him? Does it drive you away from Him? These are questions you need to ask yourself and pray about. Nobody can really give a definite answer except God 🙂
“she didn’t say any “umms” in her interview.So I knew this video was true.”
In other words you felt it was true because it felt less spontaneous and more scripted?
People um an ah all the time in normal conversation; it’s when they recite a script that they speak more fluently. I do believe you’ve been had.
Pokemon is not evil. It’s a video game franchise with no religious influence. You’re overlooking it.
