    Pitching a fusion of Darwinism and cock fighting and tied in with a catch phrase egging on 100% elitism, Pokémon has somehow managed to become one of the most popular game series of all time.

    While it’s true that Zynga definitely doesn’t come up with original games, I would like to provide a counterpoint to all of the negativity surrounding the company: it’s doing nothing new, it’s doing nothing illegal, and it won’t be found guilty in EA’s claims because of this.
