Then it dawned on me: why on Earth would I want to live in a world where ghosts roam free, devouring people’s souls, spirit, and vitality? Given that it’s officially spooky season, I thought it was worth writing a Halloween-inspired piece on why Pokemon is the scariest shit that ever existed. ![]() I’d often look to the sky, convinced that planes were, in fact, Ho-oh. I used to bring a plastic bucket and spade out my back garden and scour the muck for Diglett. What’s that? Pokemon is lovely? It sure is, right up until it isn’t. Such a wonderful concept - shame it’s a great big facade for the most horrific universe ever conceived by the human mind. The brilliant post-scarcity world where little kids get to ditch school and leg it around with magical creatures, never needing to worry about money or education or proper careers.
