Templar Society of Pikachu announces election of first Pope

Taligari News Network; With Anchor Jeanne Swisher

Jeanne: "This morning, the Templar Society of Pikachu, the fifth largest religious group in Taligari that is noted to worship Pikachu, the cute little rodent-creature from the hit kids show, Pokemon (or Pocket Monster). The very popular religion that grew up around the show worships Pikachu as the main deity in a very large parthenon of Pokemon Gods. (Pikachu is the main deity of Lightning).

Well anyway the Templar Society has announced the election of their first Pope to head the religious organization. Until now the Templar was managed by the Council of Nine, the Nine Main High Priests of Pikachu and Raichu. The new Pope has taken the name, Piku I, and he was of the Pikachu Priesthood of the Pokemon Religion.

Piku I had no offical word on his election to the head of the Templar but the Pikachuists are now in full force in celebration in the city of Poruga, the city that has been chosen to be the center of the Pikachu Religion and their Holiest City.

Now for a commercial!"

How do Pichu and Raichu fit in the religion?

"Pichu, Pikachu, and Raichu in the Pikachu Priesthood and in the offical religion form a Divine Triangle, which the Priesthood calls the Triangle of Life. Infancy, Life, Old Age.

Many of the various Priesthoods that have Pokemon that evolve use similar systems to explain how what they call "Divine Evolution" works."

Well, we let people from the Bevelle Empire send their missionaries to our nation and they now account for 2% of our population, we extend your nation the same rights, however we would demand you follow the same laws as the rest of our people while in our nation... for prolonged stays (the kind missionary work requires) we will permit your people citizenship providing they attend military service for 2 years like everyone else.

Thanks,

If missionaries of one religion make up 2% of your population, you really have to wonder how effective they are.

Offical Name Change

"As the Templar Society is a faith that worships all of the Glorious Pokemon Gods the Society shall have a tweek in the name, it shall be known forever as the Templar Society of Pokemon rather than the Templar Society of Pikachu."
