I had a chinese friend who was apparently really into fighting them, which seems a bit of a fringe sport…

  The Japanese are also into fighting insects, although mostly with beetles. Pokemon is more understandable with this in mind as the idea of people collecting creatures to fight with other people's creatures is an extension of this.

    Beetles? Hmm I never heard about that. Spiders, yes.. And they are huge :)
