Can I get some more context here? What exactly is going on?

Saw one of your comments and wanted to shed some light on what this is.
1. illegal? Not even almost illegal. Perfectly legal to print, and sale on retail, as these are not pokemon games with cheats, these are fan recreations of games using custom assets under fair use laws with original storylines and custom characters. These are protected by the same laws that parody films are protected by.
2. This specifically is pokemon: my ass version, a game made by the users of 4chan collectively as a joke. The game is a dark humor parody of the original pokemon games. Pretty fun title if you’re into dark humor or weird stuff.
3. While morally shady because these ROM hacks are under normal circumstances free, if you wanted to play one of these without breaking the law or pirating, buying a physical copy is the best route to go. As you’re essentially paying for the cartridge.

This is funny because the My Ass Version is actually a decent Pokemon game lol.

Silly Update:
Counterfeit [Pokémon](https://imgur.com/a/AhCr1Im) plushies, found today as well.
First of 25x boxes, at 3x different identical lots (totalling 75x), going to 3x **separate** destinations along the NA East Coast.
3x shippers are different too, & on different flights, but origins are China.
Plushie quality & marketing tags are excellent, unsurprisingly. 🧸
