Men in Black Drag Deflated Pikachu to the Gulags

The Pokémon World Festival 2017 in South Korea was marred by tragedy as the lead Pikachu dancer slowly deflated in what could be construed as a metaphor for his hopes and dreams. During a choreographed dance routine involving 15 emotionless Pikachus, the star of the show put a little extra oomph in his shimmy and began slowly deflating. Next thing you know, a man in white runs up to either console or catch it. Seconds later, men in black rushed both the man in white and the Pikachu to drag them off stage.

Pokémon Go is getting a little too real.
