Is Pokemon the Path towards Satanism?!

PETA has been such a butt nugget since the first Pokemon game came out. "Ensnaring animals is prohibited", " cockfighting is illegal", "animal cruelty is horrendous" were some of the slogans used by PETA. And Nintendo's reply to these controversies came in the form of Pokemon X and Y. In the description of a Poke ball they had written "comfortably" encapsulating its target.
*sarcastic wow*, *slow clap*.

But now, Pokemon has to face a whole new world of problems like Racism (Jynx), Nazi Imagery (The Team Rocket's salute is a Heil Hitler salute) and even Homosexuality. Yes, I'm looking at you Ho-Oh, or should I say Hoe-Oh. I might talk about these topics in a later article but right now I will be writing about the latest problem it has got itself into- Satanism.

Here is a list of all the Satanic relations it has been connected with:-

  • Pokemon are like demons. They are captured and must be called upon to perform tasks.
  • Magical talismans (supposedly a reference to Gym Badges) are needed to control them.
  • Pokemon evolve. Though this transformation is more akin to metamorphosis in most Pokemon, the theory of evolution is denied entirely by the most fundamentalist creationists, who believe that all things as they are presently were divinely inspired.
  • Some Pokemon evolution even requires the use of certain magical stones.
  • Many Pokemon have extraordinary paranormal powers, notably Psychic-types. Those with Psychic powers are labeled as having been given these powers by Satan in the Bible itself.
  • Many Pokemon embody or practice East Asian spiritual or mystical concepts, being that the franchise originated in Japan. Some Christian groups denounce these as pagan rituals.
  • Some claim that if one were to play backwards the Pokérap, "Gotta Catch 'em All!" can be heard as "I love you, Satan".


Some also say that there are many Pokemon that are Satanic for example Vivillon. First of all its Pokemon number 666. There are 18 Forms of Vivillon which is divisible by 6. 6x3=18 and 6 three times is 666. Vivillon's body is segmented into 3 parts of each is its own grey which also makes six. Pokemon have a set of six stats and has six white dots in its eyes, three from each eye. 
Is any of this intentional?

Some also go against the Darwinian Theory of Evolution by saying that Charizard evolved from a much weaker form- Charmander. Same goes to Mewtwo who was created by scientists on accident when a lab experiment went wrong. All these theories go against the belief that God only has the power to create life. Some even say that Arceus who is meant to be the God of Pokemon has a goat-like appearance. This makes us think that he is disguised as Satan and is imitating God.

That one time when I played Pokemon Soul Silver I was shocked to see the resemblance it had with the Satanic Cult. There was a big white (or silver?) birdlike creature swimming across the screen. The same figure is stylized into the logo. At this point I knew that Pokemon was connected with the occult. The ancient Egyptians believed the soul was called Ba, and it took the form of a bird with a human face! This game shows a bird with strikingly human features curled up to represent a soul! If you can’t see the connection with the occult already, Satan must have control over your mind.

But anyways that is all I could dig up in the internet. If you know more such semblances make sure to comment down below. And as always-
