Pokémon X/Twitter account compromised to advertise memecoin

For half an hour, the Pokémon Company Twitter account was hacked by an unknown party to promote a Pokémon memecoin. Memecoins are a form of cryptocurrency made only to be driven by social media hype and memes with little to no value. After the account was fully recovered, the Pokémon Company issued a statement towards their loyal fanbase denying that they were involved in cryptocurrency:

We’re aware that our X account was accessed without authorization and used to publish posts promoting a cryptocurrency.

Those posts were not created or approved by Pokémon and have been removed. We're sorry for the confusion and appreciate your patience.

It's even worse than what happened with the Sonic Inflation...

You could say Pokemon TCG is already the ultimate memecoin

People treat Pokemon trading cards like gambling, it's so unreal.
