The entire premise of pokemon is capturing and disciplining creatures and keeping them in very small confined places.

The pokemon then suffer from stockholm syndrome and do as their master asks.

Funny that you mention Stockholm syndrome being that the belief in God is Stockholm syndrome at it's best.

God creates us and treats us well if we do as God says, if we don't we get punished so in turn our fear of God turns to love and admiration for our master, sounds like Stockholm syndrome to me.

Yes it is! Pokemon has evolution in it, which Christianity is against, ergo it is more or less against God.

It also has Arceus in it, the 'god' of all pokemon. The Pokemon franchise is trying to get innocent children to worship false gods and statues.

holy cow Pokemon are not real they are an idea of a game made up by some guy who is probably really rich right now the cant be suffering from being crammed in a ball because they are not real this is a pretty sad excuse for a debate topic

Side: NOT AGAINST GOD

I didn't know they even thought about it. I know they kinda sparked their own creationism thing but so have other shows. I think its just a nice game to play and they just want something to keep us entertained......pikachu is such a good entertainer by the way.

Why?

A) Pokemon was made by a Japanese company who are not concerned with Christianity. Shintoism is prevalent there, I doubt there are many people who know about Jesus there

B) Pokemon "evolve," but this is only a technical term. Many of them mirror real life creatures (such as a worm going into a cocoon and then hatching into a butterfly) or are simply bigger and older versions, implying aging

C) There is no real evidence that they are against God, as there is no message against God. The game however, does reference: Heaven, Doing the right thing, and Burial (you can argue all you want; its mainly a Christian ideal to bury your dead).

the concept of god is an idea and should not be against to any other positive concepts towards anything of interest at anyone's expense. god should not provide any negative offense towards anything not in the bible or reflect on christian faith.

First off what the heck?! I mean how is Pokemon against God? If anything its dependently not against God because, in the game and the female Pokemon can't use attract on another female Pokemon, and same with male Pokemon. In the bible it says a woman is to be with a man not woman and woman or man and man. Plus a lot of people say that its against God because they catch creatures and put them in small compact spaces, but do you know what Pokemon stands for? It stands for pocket monsters. they're supposed to be "pocket" size. Not to mention they have to obey their masters? Of course they do! If you have a dog you want it to obey you,don't you?
