One Twitter user highlighted this unsettling lore, stating, "Typhlosion... kidnapping a girl and gaslighting her? What in the world?" This comment alone garnered thousands of likes and sparked widespread discourse. Other users followed with memes, like one saying, “Gen Z is trying to cancel Typhlosion,” which gained considerable traction. The overall response on social media has been a mixture of disbelief, humor, and criticism, as many fans joke about the Pokémon's darker portrayal while others voice concerns over Game Freak’s choice of storytelling​

The allegations against these starters is crazy

I love the idea that the whole Typhlosion population has to take accountability for that one random pedo in their species https://t.co/fAJQIDNEyN
