    The article introduced by OP overlooks a crucial fact regarding the description of the event held at Yasukuni Shrine.

    According to an official statement from The Pokémon Company, the event in question was organized by “an individual certified for the Pokémon Trading Card Game,” and the company stated that this was mistakenly posted on its official website due to insufficient verification.

    This was therefore a prank perpetrated by a malicious individual. It is incorrect to assume this event was officially organized by The Pokémon Company.
