I did not know this, but after talking about my project with someone, I've found out that I'm not the only person to think of this. Apparently, Pokemon being animal cruelty is a topic that came up many many times. However, that doesn't seem to have affected the franchise or the fans very much, as most of the reactions I've gotten about my project were people telling me that I'm wrong. There are even games online that is from the perspective of the pokemons as they try to escape from the people that captured them and even the main protagonists of the game are presented as evil. This is also similar to what I will try to do; I want to present Pokemon the way it is in my mind right now. The way I think about Pokemon is still that it is animal abuse/cruelty. The show is of little kids wanting to be champions in some event and capturing creatures and making them fight. The game is of little kids wanting to be champions in some event and capturing creatures and making them fight until they faint. In the comments, I expect to get upset critiques saying that I'm wrong and Pokemon like to be captured.
