This hilariously entitled parent wasn’t taking no for an answer and ended up getting totally monstered

Poke Staff. Updated June 2nd, 2025

There’s a corner of Reddit called ‘choosing beggars’ which is full of people trying to get stuff on the cheap or for free.

It’s a world of entitlement, in other words, and this exchange, which went wildly viral, is straight out of the top drawer.

It’s a parent who wanted to get their son a Pokemon card for his birthday but it wasn’t for sale – it definitely wasn’t for sale – and their refusal to accept this is a most entertaining (and exasperating) read.

(And no, you don’t have to be a Pokemon devote to appreciate it).

Ooof.
