The Germans are major pussies about that type of shit anyway. Censor all kinds of blood, too.

And we swear with terrible diseases so nobody probably gave a fuck anyway

Don't be fucking retarded. That's not a matter of censorship, it's just a matter of marketing. And they happen to have made the right choice. They wouldn't call it "Small Pox Tournament" in English, regardless of whether there was an etymological reason for it. It sounds stupid n German so they changed it to a title that's just as direct in conveying meaning and without the unfortunate pun.

Germany is the only reason why the game corner was taken out of Pokemon, because they censor gambling in games, and it was too much effort to make 2 separate versions of the game. If Germany is involved, 99% of the time, it's censorship.
