I happen to remember a story a while ago about children ins some far-flung country imitating Pokémon by jumping off of buildings and attempting to fly (Like a Pidgey I think it was) If anyone else remembers this story, can you link to somewhere documenting it? Thanks. - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 11:02, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) | I happen to remember a story a while ago about children ins some far-flung country imitating Pokémon by jumping off of buildings and attempting to fly (Like a Pidgey I think it was) If anyone else remembers this story, can you link to somewhere documenting it?

The Swastika
Arty, the a Swastika-like symbol is in fact good luck in numerous cultures, notably some Native American ones.
Okay, but I think keeping the extrnal links would enlight some people that want more proof :)
I really need someone to get in here and change it to 'manji', which is what the symbol on the card really is. I still haven't figured out the hang of external links.
manji is merely the Japanese name for what is ultimately an Indian symbol, otherwise known as Swastika in English. - 刘 (劉) 振霖 12:58, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Really? Because what I saw is that the Manji goes the other way.
Flying Kids
