I've just read this news and thought I had to share it.

Original article (in Spanish)

Summary: a Chilean urban tribe of teenagers who dye their hair and wear piercings all over their bodies call themselves Pokemon. Neonazi groups are gathering to beat them up and uploading photos and videos of the beatings on the web. Their logo is an image of Pikachu inside a "forbidden" sign.

I don't know what you'll all think about this. Personally, I find it scary. Of course, I've always found the actions of nazis horrifying, and that won't change. That said, I find the idea of people calling themselves pokemon somewhat funny. But I can't say the same about this piece of news.
