No, Pokemon is not demonic
Really? If I were in her shoes, I would have given my own input for a new series of pokemon!
But seriously, if this woman was a Christian then why did she go to Hell?
well... NAw, i can say that I hate POKEMONS. Yesterday, i was talking with my family about it. My mum said that one day she wached one interwiew with one christian woman. She was dyed - was in heaven and in hell too. And gues what she saw there (in hell i mean)? There demons and evils were doing new series of pokemon. For me, thats enough for hate it...
Sorry for mistakes...

Pokemon is not demonic. Every year there's something new the Christians boycott for whatever reason. When I was in the 5th grade, it was Pokemon. In high school it was Pepsi briefly because someone started a rumor that they were going to make their cans have the pledge of allegiance on them but omit the words, "under God," which ended up being untrue. At some point they were boycotting Disney, and of course there was the notorious boycotting of Dan Brown and anything to do with the Da Vinci Code, probably the one thing I've heard of yet where they almost had a legitimate argument.
My mom's argument that Pokemon was demonic was that they start as cute but grow to be big and ugly and powerful... My response was, "SO DO PEOPLE!!!" I've heard all the other arguments and they're ludacris and examples of people just begging for an excuse to condemn and make something 'evil.' Pokemon is as demonic as Bugs Bunny. And I can say that 4 years of watching it as a kid didn't get me possessed and electrocuting my family while shouting, "PIKA PIKA!"
And honestly Satan is really running out of tricks if Snorlax is his new weapon of choice.

I found that article extremely disturbing. I mean, come on, name me one time that Ash called out his Pokémon to asphyxiate his mum because she wouldn't buy him gum! Ash doesn't need gum... he eats way more than that.
And where on earth did this children's minister get his hands on a broadsword? Something like that can pose a terrible health hazard, given the quantity of youths present and the radius of the sword's reach... one false move and many replacement heads would be required. Bleh.

I also grew up with Pokemon, and looking back at all of those years, I am unable to find anything demonic (although, there is one pokemon that is supposed to resemble a demon).
The funny thing about the human brain is that it tends to interpret things that might not even exist into something that it recognizes (for example, the shapes of clouds during cloud watching, or the face of Jesus in a burrito). If a "demonic" message shows up while the Pokemon theme song is being played backwards, it is most likely a coincidence.
Yes. A thunderbolt.

Pokemon, that is to say cartoon and playing card game, would be in itself non-demonic only at first glance. I myself am surprised how many people still play them considering it is a dying fad.
Let's go over what we do know about them...
1. Pokemon was created by Wizards of the Coast. The same creators of D&D/MAGIC the Gathering, which in most christian sects is known to be totally demonic and also addictive for adults.
2. The name stands for Pocket Monsters.
3. The objective is to "collect them all" to become the most powerful "trainer" which caused mass addiction and craze on it's initial release.
4. Massive use of Wiccan Elementals in the battles. (Earth, Wind, Fire, Ice, etc.)
5. Cartoons are filled with "cursing", "spell casting" and other non-average-fiction tones.
Pokemon is not an innocent childs game. Nor are the characters in themselves demonic, rather, the combination of innocent cartoon and game merges with the occult to produce the deception and dangerous demonic influence. It is a predecessor to other RPG and card games which will spiral the user deeper and deeper in his interest of the supernatural. Of course these powers are not of God, so they can only have one other source...

I also found this video to be particularly interesting on RPGs:
