Talk:Nintendo registers swarm of Pokémon trademarks

I received this comment via e-mail, and I think it is appropriate to post here as a sort of letter to the editor. --Argy 04:39, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

As I am certain you are aware, any copyright holder routinely trademarks names of products that they don't intend to actually utilize simply for legal purposes, so as to have legal recourse against unauthorized third-parties that try to make or market products or properties that use those names. While I do not at all disagree that these could, in theory, be 5th generation titles or that there will indeed be a 5th generation, I feel that to allow the article to be titled as it is needlessly sensationalizes what could very easily be nothing more than a routine trademarking of potential names.
