#ThePokemonCompanyInternational #株式会社ポケモン #KabushikiGaishaPokemon For what it is worth, I have played Pokemon in the US since Red & Blue. I am a GenX game, who got into Pokemon through some kids I used to babysit. I've played every generation since then and even some more of the more obscure titles like Mystery Dungeon and Pokemon Conquest. I walked parks at night with friends playing Pokemon Go. So, it is as a fan that I am telling you. The lawfare over the past several years in Japan, US, and other places is hurting the Pokemon brand. The patent trolling needs to stop. Agatha Christie didn't patent the mystery novel. She couldn't. McDonald's didn't patent the hamburger. They couldn't. Likewise, no one should be patenting a genre of game. Trying to lock a genre of game behind patents is ethically wrong. You hurt your company's image and your brand. Pay attention to what people are saying. This behavior is not looked upon favorably in the west, where some of your biggest markets are. Competition is healthy and benefits Pokemon. That's how a brand evolves. McDonald's thrives because Burger King, Wendy's and other brands exist. Science fiction shows and movies benefit from one another. DC & Marvel benefit from the competition. Pokemon as an IP thrived in the 2000s where Digimon, Beyblade, Monster Rancher, and Dual Monsters were also popular. Pokemon comes from a culture that historically values honor and integrity. It is time for the Pokemon Company to endorse those values. Please stop the lawfare. I can tell you that if Iwata were alive today, he would be ashamed of you. Mods aren't art? Yes they are. You know very well they are. Mods help drive innovation in gaming. Imagine a game as a community garden. People enjoy the garden's beauty. However, someone realizes something is missing and adds another plant or a sculpture. The garden as a whole is much more pleasing. That's what mods do for games. Some mods even morph themselves into entire games. They are art. I am also going to tell you that, as a Pokemon fan, I will not be buying Pokemon ZA. I cannot support an IP whose guardians are so rabid that they can't see the damage they are causing to the gaming industry. When you find your moral compass once again, I will come back. Please consider these words and then look at yourselves in the mirror.

@gg_rora Honestly, content creators ought to form a collective association. Like a guild. So that our voices are bigger.

@Starstrider42 I could not agree more!

If this comes across your timeline, even if you don't fully read through, PLEASE comment @TeamYouTube in the thread below. I don't ask for help often, but this needs to be seen and YouTube needs to know this is not okay. Thank you for giving me your time. This morning I woke up to my very first channel warning on my YouTube account. The exact moment it claims it was flagged was the same position my teased new model was in the entire video which can be seen in the higher resolution screenshot to the right. This strike claims there was nudity and s*x toys present in my 100% SFW ASMR upload, which was no different in tone, delivery, or script content than any of my other uploads. The only difference present here was my 2.0 model up close to the camera due to trying to hide most of her features and make it feel more intimate. She is fully clothed. She barely moved out of the same position the entire video. There was nothing suggestive, and in the still flagged by the @YouTube AI she was actually farther back than almost any other part of the video. I appealed as soon as I woke up. Took the policy training to be sure I knew what the policy was, AND reviewed the policies directly and confirmed there was nothing in the video that violated any policies. I went to my Partner support, and got ZERO help. I will post the conversation below. Not only did Partner support not help me, but I had a Partner Manager in a Discord call with me confirming that since January 14th--the full integration of Gemini AI--that the warning, strikes, AND appeals are all run by AI. My appeal was rejected in less than 10 minutes despite saying a HUMAN would review my video and I would not hear back for 72 hours or so. Support doubled down, and refused to answer my question about whether or not my screenshot to the right violated any policies saying that "the platform has to be fair, so we can't answer that question or tell you what triggered it" despite there being hard evidence that the AI was wrong. @TeamYouTube I have had enough. We have all had enough. I have suffered through hard channel throttling for almost four months with is now most likely going to happen AGAIN after it was finally starting to heal from what your AI has done to the platform because of this warning. This is absolutely not okay. My model was fully clothed. My ASMR is and has always been SFW and meant purely for relaxation. There were NO community guideline violations in this post, and this is now the second time your support team has literally refused to help a creator having their livelihood attacked unjustly. I have broken no community guidelines, post every single day either shorts or long form, go live EVERY DAY bringing thousands of eyes to my content, and it is clear that your platform does not respect VTubers of any kind. VTubers heavily use your platform for live streaming and bring in millions of dollars for YouTube. This is not okay. How you treat us is not okay. Allowing Gemini AI to ruin this platform is not okay, and I am NOT letting this rest until something is done to remove this wrongful violation off of my channel.

@gg_rora A class action is bound to happen sooner or later.

@TeamYouTube @YouTube Update. Team YouTube DID end up reaching out to me via DMs. So far, this is what has been said. @TeamYouTube I hope you plan on taking accountability for this and all of the other VTubers who were attacked by your poor AI uses this week.

@gg_rora @TeamYouTube The problem is that Youtube has decided to rely solely on AI and algorithms. Humans aren't even reviewing the appeals.

It kind of feels like @TeamYouTube decided today was the day they were going to pick on VTubers. Please take accountability and help restore our videos.

@A_type_aruaru You're upset by this man scaring a deer? Japan launches explosives at whales in order to kill them.

Do you like pineapple on pizza? Come tell me! Welcome aboard Starstrider Station! Let's play some Crimson Desert twitch.tv/starstridersta…

@twisokhou I could do that with a machete

@26ers_bp115 No. This guy is just doing it for views

外国の皆さん。 非常に不愉快で下品に見えますが、 皆さんの国ではこれが面白いのですか？

@Sealder_SAN Was this a brisket? Oof... might be okay cut up into small pieces and smothered in gravy

頑張ったんですがバーベキュー敗北です 途中でちょっと目を離してたら炭火がすっげぇ燃焼してたせいか火が通り過ぎちゃった……

@pirooooon3 no

アメリカの朝食は 必ず銃が出てくるの？ 日本では考えられません 神様👼👼👼

@2Doramimon @tanomuzeA "Would you care for some tea?"

@tanomuzeA そのうち全てのウェイターとウェイトレスはロボットに変わるから、チップはなくなる。

🇺🇸アメリカのチップ文化には色んな 意見があると思いますが、 あなたはどう思いますか？

@tanomuzeA general rule of thumb is to take the sales tax on the bill and then double it. that's usually around 20%. don't let the servers tell you what the tip should be if you don't know.

@bush_cat32 I recommend a channel on Youtube called Tasting History with Max Miller. It's a very popular channel here in the US. He did a video on this dish. youtube.com/watch?v=ry5Du6…

SOSを食べてみたい。

@ysdrh157 @DubzyOnceAgain You guys have markets where people can buy a WHOLE FREAKIN TUNA. So why does a huge cheese like this surprise you in America?

@DubzyOnceAgain 誰が、なんの為に、買うのですか？

Do the Japanese know about THE BIG CHEESE?

@hoshizorarock Don't you guys have a folk story about a rabbit trying to get off an island and it hopped on sharks to get back to the mainland?

アメリカ人よ 日本のうさぎの島に行きなさい そしてうさぎと友達になりなさい

@HAPIOKI I would not have chosen corn for a side dish. This needs a dinner roll.

新しいアメリカの友達、この沖縄のステーキってどう思う？

Name me a more unlikeable TV character in history

@kengakusha1 Merica!

アメリカ人のみなさん 落ち着いて聞いてください BBQが法律で禁止されました

@curry_boz I see your curry and raise you a gumbo

アメリカの人達が、デカい肉を出してくるならば、こちらは、これだ。

A warning from the Cheese Police: Due to a shortage of personnel, we are mobilizing a large number of Pikachu from Japan to America. This will allow us to arrest all cheese criminals in America. American cheese criminals, beg for your lives now 🥺
