You’re a conspiracy theorist.

What a waste of a setting and a misstep for the series.

The fuck? She got doxxed? I love video games, but I flippin’ hate video gamers, I swear. 

Agreed completely.

Why do any details of this woman’s personal life belong on Kotaku? 

I guess there’s something missing here.

You are not the target audience. Pikachu is designed to appeal to young children. Get the fuck over it.
