multiscales:

Friendly reminder that an episode of Pokemon anime involved a native, Hawaiian family being insistently harassed and terrorized by a rich, white business man to sell their property. Throughout the episode things line up well enough that they gain enough proof and support from everyone around them to get said troublemaker arrested promptly. An even bigger moral victory is that Kiawe himself manages to punish the man with a defeat in a Pokemon battle in a rematch after losing previously. Truly, it’s things like this that remind me that the Pokemon world is meant to be (for the most part) a progressive utopia of openness and justice for all.
