Oh apparently he sent an email to Nintendo, but still.

Actually, hasn't Kadabra still appeared in the anime and it definitely appears in the games. Why was the TCG so offensive?
It is because of a card in 2002 with Dark Kadabra. It was the name that he took offense to

Ok, allow me to elaborate about Kadabra because people here are not direct with the answer. Uri Geller sued Nintendo because Kadabra japanese name is Yungerer which sounds similar to his name. The fact that Kadabra is holding a spoon also justify that it is based on Uri Geller. Also, he was offended by Kadabra's the red stripe on his belly because those symbols are very similar to Nazi's military rank symbols. Uri Geller lost the lawsuit but Nintendo decides not to print Kadabra ever again. Hope this helps.

And that's why it doesn't matter what he says to them. They're just never going to do it. Kadabra will never appear in the TCG, in the anime, or on merchandise again, and nothing will ever change that.

All Nintendo needs to do is change the name, replace the spoon and the red lightning in the midsection. But, they refuse to do just that which is stupid.
