Pallet Town (BFN) – Today President Trump confirmed that his administration had discussed buying the entire Kanto Region from Nintendo.

Rumors of the President looking to purchase Kanto popped up on our radar early last week, but we dismissed them because we figured it was utterly ridiculous. However, speaking to reporters on the S.S. Anne, the President revealed that he indeed asked his administration to look into the possibility of acquiring the Kanto Region.

“It’s just something we’ve talked about,” said President Trump. “Nintendo essentially owns it. We’re very good allies with Nintendo. We’ve protected the Kanto Region during The Great Pokemon War, so the concept came up.”

Nintendo President responded to the President stating, “The Kanto Region is not for sale. It’s not even real.”
