Why is there Sarina, a "Pokemon" character, on your national flag? When was this character added, and for what reason? When your flag is actually flown in your state's official buildings and in the courts of law, is she actually on the flag? When flags are used for state ceremonies, or in diplomatic summits where they are flown with other nation's flags, do the other nations actually put a flag with Serena on it?
If TurtleShroom and Satosere were to have a summit, hosted in TurtleShroom, would TurtleShroom be correct in displaying the Satoserite flag with Sarina on it?
Does the law that defines your nation's flag actually say "and Sarena from the 'Pokemon' series of video games shall be placed on the fly side/right of the national flag of the Free Land of Satosere, facing the hoist"? We are curious as to just how far, and how officially, her inclusion on your national flag is.
Lastly, why hasn't your nation been challenged or accused by Nintendo, or any equivalent, for stealing a copyrighted character and placing her directly on your flag?
"First of all, no. Our official flag doesn't have Serena on it. She's just... a national symbol. There is also no law requiring her to be on the flag. Lastly, Nintendo filed for bankruptcy in 2083, and we bought the Pokemon franchise. Pokemon is now a tool for Ukrainian
propaganda and indoctrination entertainment. Hope this helps."
