Should probably be merged with lawsuits. Under a new title. Evkl 20:53, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Good plan. Wonder why I didn't think that in the first place. - Ferret 20:59, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Flying Kids
I happen to remember a story a while ago about children ins some far-flung country imitating Pokémon by jumping off of buildings and attempting to fly (Like a Pidgey I think it was) If anyone else remembers this story, can you link to somewhere documenting it? Thanks. - Ferret 11:02, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I think that was made up like the Superman story back in the 50s.
Jynx
I read a largish essay on a website once that explained that Jynx was actually unintentionally racist, due to how the Japanese culture is. Anyone know where I can find it? I'ld like to expand on this section a little. - Ferret 11:07, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
- I don't think you can be unintentionally racist. - Jshadias 15:18, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
I think you speak of this article, Ferret: http://www.bulbagarden.net/~dogasu/bashing/racist_jynx_01.html - Zeta
Am I the only one who just plain doesn't see the resemblance? I seem to recall a Nordic story about a witch who stayed out in the snow so long she turned black from the cold...--BJG
Yeah that's the article Zeta. Thank you. - Ferret 02:21, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
>The vauge legend about the ice princess who turned black is addressed in the article on Dogasu's Site - IE, no one can find solid proof of it. And it seems likely that someone just fabricated it to explain Jynx in an inoffensive manner. - Zeta
No, I'd heard it. I'd have to look it up. But I don't think she was a princess, though, which may be what throws people off--BJG
