The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has grown more resolute regarding the Pokemon-themed deportation arrest video it recently posted online after the Pokemon Co. said it has not given permission to use its upbeat theme music and imagery in the video, along with the catchphrase “Gotta Catch ‘Em All” in the caption.
The department, in an email response to questions from The Japan Times Friday, did not address using Pokemon in its video, instead giving a one-line comment:
“To arrest them is our real test. To deport them is our cause.”
