Don't let anyone tell you Pokemon isn't serious business. Some people are saying this is all stemming from the fat one getting banned from a Pokemon forum.

I'm horrified because I know two kids who compete in these tournaments for fun. Not sure if they were at this particular event or not.

At the same time, I'm wondering just how much prison cred this is going to get them...

Prisoner: "What did you do?"
Neckbeard: "Threatened to shoot up a Pokemon championship."
Prisoner: "Man, all you nerds are crazy."

This thread started like a week after it happened. Plebbit detected.

Were they stopped by a 10 year old kid who held them off in a Pokemon battle until the actual police arrived?

Also OP: Please don't direct link Polygon. They don't deserve more clicks.

The fat one will probably hang himself in the cells. Glad they caught them all :p
