Beneath the fun collect-a-thon exterior lives a terrifying reality in the world of Pokémon. The games rarely touch on it, but hidden within short bursts of text within the Pokédex live haunting tales of death, reincarnation, kidnapping, and worse.

Either way, there is some horrific stuff packed in there.

As a Poke Ball closes, the camera zooms in on wrists in cuffs. And at the very end of the video, those arrested appear as Pokemon cards with their "crime" described under their picture.

Can fans also expect to compete for these items with scalpers who view opportunities like this as an opportunity to make some quick cash? If previous Pokemon events are any indicator, probably.

It's officially Animal Crocsing season, as the Crocs x Animal Crossing collection is now live and ready to order.
