Quick rundown: someone got a hold of over a terabyte of stuff from Game Freak through phishing and it has leaked onto the internet. Among the data that got leaked was conceptual documents and ideas on what some Pokemon would be like before it got edited. Among them was some documents detailing on how Typhlosion kidnaps children or other humans and breeds to make half Pokemon half humans. Now it is VERY unlikely that the developers were going to put such things in the game since the concepts were based on Japanese mythology and were likely using them as a jumping off point to help create certain Pokemon species. Naturally, memes were made in nanoseconds and now my Twitter feed is flooded with art of people defending Typhlosion and other Pokemon while others are going "DURR HURR GAME FREAK ARE GOONING" because, ya know, EVERYTHING is about sex apparently.



Now I won't be able to look up or talk about Typhlosion or certain other Pokemon cause people will just bring up the memes about them. It' s the same bullshit I had to deal with when "the cake is a lie" was the hot new meme and I couldn't even talk about cake in general without some knuckle dragger quipping with the meme.
