Pokemon Company issues statement after White House uses IP in social media post

The Pokemon Company has issued a statement after its recently released Pokemon Pokopia was used in a White House meme. The Pokemon Company said it was not involved in its creation or distribution and went on to say that The Pokemon Company’s mission is not affiliated with any political viewpoint or agenda.

“We were not involved in its creation or distribution, and no permission was granted for the use of our intellectual property,” a spokesperson for the company said. “Our mission is to bring the world together, and that mission is not affiliated with any political viewpoint or agenda.”

  1. This pretty Funny since Pokemon has made Political statements in the past and in fact been political or are we going to forget when they after decades of not been political decided to post about the now know Scam political organization Black lives matter ? a group know for scamming people out of their money. if only they have not made any political post in the past they could argue from a better place.

    1. Black Lives Matter is not an organization. It’s a vague movement that literally anybody can join. And that any crook can pretend to join and scam people in…

    2. So not only what you listed wasn’t true. But the the big difference is that this is them using intellectual property without their permission for a country that is currently killing a ton of their own people and people abroad. And they’re using that specific illegal IP for that usage. That’s the difference. It would be like if the Nazi party in Germany use the Pokémon imagery But considering what garbage you posted, we know what politically you’re aligned to aka you would be stepping and sending people to gas Chambers.

    3. So? They donated to a cause before it was found out that it was ran by crooks. They also donated to the NAACP. To the California wildfire (that was cause by a right wing retard) and to a ton of other causes. See TPC donates A LOT to different causes

      Why you would focus on THIS exact donation further proves that you single digit IQ right wingers will grasp at straws to try and prove any insignificant point you think you have. Bunch of idiots.

    1. ICE are coming for you and your pathetic family, and you can't stop them 😂

      Everything the left makes bombs spectacularly, and you say the right can’t create good art? lmaooo, keep coping loser.

      1. (suggestion: this Biblical verse: “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” – Ephesians 4:29, New Living Translation version)

    2. (suggestion #1: no broad commentary about certain people)

      (suggestion #2: this Biblical verse: “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” – Ephesians 4:29, New Living Translation version)

  2. It is not ‘make America geta again’ but ‘Make America STUPID again’, the guy at the White House is in prison next to his best friend Epstein.

  3. Nintendo is the least political company of all time, no wonder why they are asking to take this down.

    But for the game itself, I love pokepokia! Its pretty much “What if Dragon Quest Builders and Animal Crossing was a game.” But I haven’t played it as much as I wanted because it launched on the same the as slay the spire 2. The last time this problem happened was when Mario Kart World and Deltarune launched on the same day.

  4. I see that’s just a font parody, but the pokemon company does support esg and dei. Such crappy mindsets are part of the reason games are getting censored or banned.

  5. Conservatives can lick my balls

    Conservatives really ruin everything huh. And they tell us not to make everything political

  6. Kill all MAGA ICE Pedos, Trumptards love pedos lol 😂

    All the pedos crying about some fake dei hoax while ignoring the pedos who run the US government. Gas all nazi pedos and throw them in a pit of fire

    Civil War is coming. MAGA extermination is gonna be a fun reality 😂😂😂

  7. I don’t even care about politics. This is just kind of lame on it’s own. It has the same energy as like those christian shirts that have like “JESUS” but it looks like the REESEE logo or… I can’t think of a second example off the top of my head. But you know what I mean… when something takes something from pop culture and copies it but changes the words to something promoting an agenda or ideology that has nothing to do with the product/brand.

  8. Apparently they have allowed it in politics such as used for BLM and other left wing outlets. This is massive hypocrisy once again don’t allow it at all.

  9. Massive hypocrisy I hope it gets covered all over they used the brand for left wing politics even tweeting about it for BLM a leftist organization later exposed for conning the black people they claimed to help also taking the lives of black people such as David Dorn. This is what Devon the new co-president of Nintendo of America does she’s a far leftist. Already see the gaslighting in the comments here. If it does bother you don’t support Pokémon or Nintendo find something else to do.

    1. Nintendo also allowed the Biden campaign to use Animal Crossing for marketing. Someone should let the Japan PM know how far left wing for American politics the Japanese company is.

      1. I know the 2 comments above me are from the same rage baiter changing their name with no effort. Your spamming is so annoying.

  10. every time pokemon shoves some bluehair genderqueer freak protagonist in my face they are making a garbage political statement so maybe they should just stfu
