Against pokemon

"I tell you they are evil...EVIL!" said the prince.

"I agree that they are a bit disturbing, but our children just love them!"

"And that is part of this sick disease! Think about it Iri, two fortnight's ago no one knew what a 'pokemon' was, now they are EVERYWHERE! I have even heard that the malignant BMC has turned it's money-hungry eyes on them as a source of greater revenue."

"But Rubia loves her Pikachu, and William won't go anywhere without his Charmander, even the baby loves the Mr. Mime blanket that the Queen gave to him."

"And that's how it began, my love; blankets, sheets, stuffed dolls even. But it won't stay there. It is said that this man Oak has come here to arrange for bouts between the strange creatures. He is looking for an arena where the monsters can fight each other for the entertainment of the folk all about. And he's looking for trainers. They came to me, my dear, but I said 'no.' But I have heard that Duke Forlorne in the west and some others were still debating the offer."

"But that would be like the Old Days!"

"Yes! Now you're beginning to understand. This man Oak wants to bring back the ancient evil of cock fights, bear hugs, and assorted other arcane acts. He wants to reintroduce the most basic darkness that we have fought for so long to keep at bay; our bloodlust, our unbending desire for simple, mind-draining violence. And he's doing it with cute, cuddly creatures."

"That bastard!"

"My point exactly."

And so husband and wife, Prince and Princess, stayed up all through the night thinking of what they could do to stop the sinister Oak and his army of cute, cuddly pokemon.
