Pokémon has supernatural powers. ... And what is the source of this power? It is the pantheistic power of the occult, not the supernatural power of God. I have found two cards that make this very clear (there are likely more). They are Abra and Kadabra. Yes, these are their actual names.

Pokémon promotes occult values, not biblical values and therefore should be rejected!
