逮捕非法移民成“抓宝可梦”？美国土安全部惹争议，版权方回应！
世纪君约 4 分钟综合洛杉矶时报、英国广播公司（BBC）等外媒报道，23日，美国国土安全部官方X账号发布了一段宣传视频，视频结合知名动画片《宝可梦》（Pokémon）的片段和主题曲，将美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）逮捕非法移民的行动比作“抓宝可梦”，并配文“必须把他们全抓到”（Gotta Catch 'Em All）。

The US Department of Homeland Security uploaded a Pokémon-themed montage of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids to social media earlier this week. The connection to the franchise was clear, as the recognizable theme song played, the original animation appeared and its signature blue and yellow text materialized.

Pokémon has said it did not give permission for the use of its theme song and other footage to be used in an ICE deportation raid video posted by the US government.
"Our company was not involved in the creation or distribution of this content, and permission was not granted for the use of our intellectual property," Pokémon Company International said in a statement to the BBC.
The Pokémon-inspired video remains on the agency's X account.

The posted video included the anime theme song, with the lyrics "Gotta catch 'em all," playing over segments of federal agents handcuffing people and imagery of a Pokémon character and the Pokéballs used to capture monsters in the game.
It concluded with several mock-ups of Pokémon playing cards with photographs of detainees, which included their full names, crimes they have committed and details about their convictions and sentencing.
Both cards have a snowflake symbol – apparently representing ICE – to indicate their weakness.
不是要过于宣扬自由主义理念什么的……但这些人也是活生生的人啊……他们有家庭，其中大多数人为他们的社区做出了贡献……我们这个社会到底在干什么？甚至不能严肃对待这件事……围捕并拘留人们只是一个好玩的《宝可梦》梗吗？
任天堂看着这一切，心里非常清楚自己根本没有那个实力去起诉国土安全部。
“侵权惯犯”？
In July, Homeland Security's X account posted a video montage, which used audio from 2022's "The Batman" and displayed a Bible verse onscreen. Paintings, from artists such as Thomas Kinkade, Morgan Weistling and John Gast have also been used by the federal agency.
