    Uri Geller Apologizes & Lets Nintendo Print Kadabra on Pokémon Cards

    by OVERSTANDARD December 5, 2020
    written by OVERSTANDARD

    To complete the entire collection of cards from the first original Pokémon saga, 151 different Pokémon are required. And if you’re a collector, there is sure to be one card that will always be impossible to get. This is Kadabra, the psychic-type Pokémon whose card was withdrawn from the market in 2000, after Nintendo received a lawsuit from Uri Geller claiming that the company had used his likeness, since Geller is known for his spoon-bending abilities, just like Kadabra.

    Two decades later, the renowned illusionist is asking for forgiveness and regretting his past actions against the Japanese company. Geller says he is “truly sorry” and Nintendo can include the creature in future Pokémon releases.

    Geller has written directly to the director of Nintendo, aware of all that involves altering the Pokémon universe for one of the most loyal fan bases in the anime universe.

    I am truly sorry for what I did 20 years ago. Kids and grownups I am releasing the ban. It’s now all up to #Nintendo to bring my #kadabra #pokemon card back.
    It will probably be one of the rarest cards now! Much energy and love to all!https://t.co/Rv1aJFlIKS pic.twitter.com/5zDMX5S8WA

    I never realized how powerful and important it was for me to lift the ban on Yungeller/Kadabra, especially for all the kids around the world!

    I'm sorry for what I did 20 years ago, but you can learn from mistakes even more than you can learn from success!#kadabra #pokemon pic.twitter.com/3YuxrUHzgq

    Hey Uri, how about signing 100 Kadabra cards for a worthy charity? Do some good and show Kadabra fans some love. No joke, check my bio. Message me if you’re up for it. pic.twitter.com/rhMId7oDhv
