    Default The Pokémon Company's Twitter account revealed to be fake

    Not long after reports that The Pokemon Company opened an official Twitter account earlier this month, the account was revealed to be a fake.

    Among the updates that were posted there was this one, which brought widespread attention to the account:
    Arceus is powerful, but it isn't the last Pokémon. Many new lands with new Pokémon have yet to be explored!
    An obvious reference to Generation 5, which fans have been hoping for for quite some time.

    Minutes ago, the following was posted revealing the account to be a fake:
    you're all the bunch of f***ing idiots, lol.
    and

    this account didnt get hacked. I faked it from the begining! LOL! c***suckers
    UPDATE:
    The Twitter account has been found to belong to Youtube user Giancarloparimango11, however links to that Youtube account have since been removed from the Twitter page.
