Pokemon legal nonsense rolls ever onwards

The European Commission today announced that it is investigating possible naughtiness at Topps, the firm behind the incredibly popular Pokemon trading cards and stickers through the Poke-boom.

According to the Commission, certain anti-competitive practices were employed by the distributor, as everyone raced to cash in on the massive industry centred around the Poke-nomenon.

“We came to the preliminary conclusion that Topps had elaborated a very far-reaching strategy designed to prevent imports of those products from countries where the prices are low into countries where the prices are higher,” said a Commission spokesperson.

Topps says it will fight the Commission on the matter.
