Like Mage Knight

Walker's old man impulses are manifesting in a growing anti-Pokémon ideology. As a frontline retail employee, he deserves out sympathy, but surely Bulbasaur and Onyx do not deserve his scorn. After all, they are but servile prize-fighters, made to do violence at the behest of their child-masters. Similarly, they are not responsible for the broader economic forces that eventually lead to the abuse of those who are made to sell the cursed cards.
