Quoted By:
My bud told me that the red & blue Pokemon games were conceptualized and developed in America but during ww2, the Japanese kidnapped the original creator of Pokemon then forced him to sell them the rights to the franchise along with the source codes for both games. He was then killed after the bombing of Hiroshima. Apparently this is why in Japan, the franchise has an English sounding name (Pocket monster)
Is this true?
