The actual certification is real but he got denied it because he failed a background check. He got in a fight with a weapon and didn’t show up in court (or something like that).

So that everyone else won't toil to find a single news source that actually links to the PDF of the filing, here you go: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/73340732/owens-v-the-pokemon-company-international/

Now, as to the quality of the pleading, I will highlight that the very first entry in the docket is "PRO SE MOTION for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis". That is, a request that the court waives its typical filing fees, made by someone representing themself in court without a lawyer.

Oh dear. Outside of prisoners appealing their convictions, representing oneself is usually a fools errand.

This is why we can't have nicer things in America. Excessive lawsuits about frivolous things.
