*Trigger warning*

Hello people of Wattpad...I'm sure that some of you have already heard about or seen the person who is harassing @/Pokemonfan333. This person has been repeatedly making spam accounts telling Pokemon suicidal prompts and making hate books about him and his involvement in the LGBT community.

Many people have been good friends and human beings and have stepped up to Pokemon's defense by shooting back retaliations to the 'Bully's' posts. But the thing is...if we keep on retaliating, the Bully will just keep on coming back and harassing Pokemon.

I believe that the only way to stop this is to completely ignore the bully. No views on their stories, no retaliation on their horrible message board posts...nothing. These retaliations are the entire reason that the Bully keeps on coming back, and if we continue to argue with some coward on the other side of a screen, Pokemon will just have to suffer through more of this mess.

Instead, do simply this: report absolutely everything about the new spam account when it pops up for the next several times. Their message board posts, their story, their comments, and especially their profile itself. Report, report, report. This is far more affective, and I can be trusted with my word because, yesterday, when I did this, the Bully's account and everything they did was gone entirely in under three minutes.

So, to recap- even though it hurts your pride and morals, ignore the Bully. They keep on coming back to argue with you and enjoy the attention you give them. They know that what they're doing is wrong- there's no point in telling them about it. After a while of getting no attention and a lot  of deleted accounts, I'm willing to bet that the Bully will give up. Sure, they might reappear every once and a while, but we can just stick to this strategy and wear them out.

Also- I'll be tagging the people who I see retaliating the Bully in here, just so y'all can see this. I'm not trying to call you out, or say that you did anything wrong-because you didn't-I'm just trying to make this a better place for Pokemon.
