Pokemon Stands with Ukraine

Ukraine
Once again Pokemon is helping where it can.

The last week hasn’t been too good when it comes to global events. Currently Russia is taking part in an invasion of Ukraine. Innocent people of all kinds are being hurt in the crossfire of such an act. Families are being torn apart. Children are seeing the horrors of an unprovoked war.

You may have noticed that Pokemon was mostly quiet on social media last week. Even with a Pokemon Presents happening on Sunday, they didn’t do much to advertise it. Eventually they came out to state that due to the growing situation in Eastern Europe and Russia that they decided to not promote the Presents. This was all out of the respect of the people who are suffering in Ukraine.

Though, once again Pokemon is standing up and doing something to help. They have just announced that they will be donating $200,000 dollars to help the people of Ukraine. This donation will be given to GlobalGiving for humanitarian relief. The funds will then be distributed with the goal to support families and children affected by this crisis.

Below is the statement from Pokemon.
