Okay, what the heck are these things, anyway? Some kind of little space aliens, obviously, but how did they end up here?
Are they intelligent beings (persons), or are they just exotic animals? And what's all this garbage about 'Trainers' and 'Masters' making these things go at each other in some kind of arena?
If they are sentient beings, then all the producers have done is resurrect slavery, and turned Mandingo (1975) into an animated kiddie show. I guess the moral of the story would be that a good 'Master' is kind to his little fuzzies, and treats them with a firm, but fair hand.
Of course, if the Pokes are only exotic animals, then the situation is very different. If that is the case, the show only sinks to the level of, say, cockfighting, or watching two pit bulls tear into each other.
Hmmm. . . Maybe they could be trained in the use of tiny little weapons. ..
