That “new” Pokemon debuted 24 years ago
Hank Hill recognizes 152 Pokémon total. The first 151, and then Stunfisk.
STUNFISK BWAAAAA
Torkoal burns clean and hot and you taste the heat not the meat
you right, kids can afford catch new gods
Maybe it’s just nostalgia (even though I was already playing videogames when Pokémon R/B came out on GB), but 3rd generation Pokémon was really the best one. Creative and fun without being too wacky. Also, Gardevoir. 🤷😅
Also, Gardevoir. 🤷😅
more like 😫😖😩🍆💦💦💦💦💦
One of them is a lawnmower.
Hank, suddenly intrigued: “Wait, there’s a ‘grass type’ Pokemon?”
I don’t mind the lawnmower cause it’s a poltergeist possessing various electronics. That’s a pretty cool concept, even though I don’t care for the designs themselves.
wait, could that poltergeist possess… a propane grill?
Well sort of. But yeah.
We have pokemon for a keyring, stonehenge, soccer players, and garbage!
Arceus is the real God Pokemon.
Rayquaza is just protector of the earth, living in the Ozone
It fights alien Pokemon Deoxys and calms down Kyogre (creator and protector of the sea) and Groudon (protector and creator of the Land) when they got to fight each other (mainly because of humans)
🤓
One could say that Rayquaza is the Avenger Pokemon 🤭
They’re all deities, Arceus is just on a higher level
Rayquaza is the Kirby of Pokemon
Does Rayquaza have the slap of death of Kirbo?
Arceus is a capital G god. Any “one-of-a-kind” Pokémon representing an in-universe element or force could pass as a lowercase g god.
Mew and Ditto are both demigods then
in that case, mewtwo is basically just a ripoff of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein.” what other public domain classics did Pokémon manage to repackage and resell to us?!
Yess, thank you! I corrected it in my comment! 🫶🏻🤘🏻
Meanwhile, Bobby’s outside playing in the tall grass pretending to be a Rattata.
POV: you are the first Zubat that a player using gameshark sees
I can absolutely see Bobby as the comfy shorts kid.
“I tell you hwat!”
Bobby: “Dad, everybody knows they can’t catch Rayquazza… it entices .”
“It’s pronounced Arcanine, dad.”
“dee-ad.”
Hank: “Bobby, when I was little, we had 151 Pokémon, and that was plenty! We didn’t even have confirmation that Mew existed until maybe a decade later, and we were all so happy that we threw a party! Remember, Boomhauer?”
Boomhauer: “Well I tell ya what man igottagetyaonthepokemonromhacksbecausebackthentheydidntknowgaddumnallaboutjapaneseso (chuckling) theyjustchangedthejapanesecharacterstoenglishones man andnobodycaredtheydjustsitthereonno$gbandmakeuppokemonnameslike ‘turt’ or ‘hors’ andwe’dalljustlikestumblethroughthebarelytranslatedgames tryingtofigureoutwhattodoman it was a joy to be included”
