Red blinking lights are know to trigger seizures.

YES! When I go to the neurologist they shine strobe lights in my eyes to induce a seizure when I get an EEG (Electro Encephelogram). When Pokemon first came on the air it was giving kids all over Japan seizures...I wonder why the strobes cause this?

The condition appears to involve the primary visual cortex, which processes visual information. The cortexes of photosensitive are easily excited; flashing patterns overwhelm them, setting off a barrage of neuron firing that overwhelm the cortex.
