    Being used in fascist propaganda is way more damaging to the brand than tentacle porn.

      Considering the leaked internal lore, why do you think tentacle porn would be damaging?

        Because they literally went after people for making Pokemon porn on that exact basis?

          They went for copyright infringement. The fact that people crave Pokémon porn is not damaging the brand, only a sign they need to sift to more mature adult audience

    Ah, nothing will happen. This isn’t an internet rando, it would be a long and costly legal fight. The CEO can’t get his dick hard by utterly destroying someone’s life this time.
