What We've Learned from Pokémon
This is a fun little game I've seen on quite a few forums. So why not restart it here?
Basically, just post all the ridiculous things that you've 'learned' from the Pokémon games and their strange world. Example: I've learned that: - I can only move in four basic directions. - I can't run in buildings until the fourth generation of my life. - No matter how many times I talk to someone, they will always tell me the same thing. - My bag can hold an unlimited amount of items, plus a folding bike, and it will never get any bigger. I will also never get crushed from the weight. - A Pokémon 1/3 of your size can Fly me across the region. Your turn. |
I've learned from Pokemon that no matter what you say, it always comes out as a Yes or No.
|
I've learned if I ever walk in grass I need a fire breathing monkey ---> Chimchar refrence haha ^^
|
I've learned that children can stop danger groups of people.
|
I've learned that throwing a ball at a animal DOES capture them!
|
Ive learned that if you walk into a building, you will never stop walking into the wall. If you keep holding the button, he will always look like he is walking... I hope you get me
|
I've learned that even if your a child you could catch any god like Pokemon [Arceus]
|
I've learned that it's okay to break into houses and take whatever you want.
|
Ive learnt two things:
People seem to be really stupid in the pokemon universe, because they sure do drop lots of stuff And parents let their children off into the forest to live their own lives at 10 years old, not caring if they get sick or get eaten by a wild Arcanine (dont judge me that was the first thing that popped into my head) |
I've learned that throwing a blade of grass on a rock will disintegrate it.
|
I learned that you can take a persons pokemon and use it, and they will let you keep it.
|
I learned that if a giant pidgeon (Pidgeot) pecks a really buff guy (Machoke), he faints almost instantly.
|
Ive learnt that a 10 year old boy has the capability of being able to destroy evil organizations and save the world
|
I LOVE THESE!
I've learned that... 1) Japan contains many unique and magical creatures that cannot be found elsewhere... almost 500 of them in fact. 2) Candy Bars CAN heal wounds, but barely. 3) Drinking sweet, sugary drinks IS good for you. 4) If someone had been knocked unconscious, you need only press a gemstone to them, and that that gemstone's revival powers only work once. 5) Moon rocks make certain beings shapeshift permanently. 6) You actually don't need bait to catch a fish; you can leave that oh-so-familiar-looking red and white ball on your line and catch things with that. 7) Bikes are more expensive than cars. I mean, RLY expensive. 8) If you talk to old men who catch little hairy larva, strange things will happen if you swim close to a beach's coast. 9) While the forces of darkness can stop a mystical person in its tracks, it holds no power over a martial arts expert. 10) Radioactive rocks in general can make creatures evolve into higher forms of life instead of, say, giving them cancer. |
I learned:
-that walking into someone's line of sight means you MUST battle them. -that your opponents are unable to physically beat you up and must use their super-powered animals to fight you. -that a tiny turtle can transport me across the ocean. -that it's perfectly fine for 10-year-olds to travel the continent alone and unsupervised. |
I've learned that:
-If you ride your bike fast enough and erratically enough in a certain city, you can cause entire sections of a city to mysteriously disappear without anyone caring [D/P tweaking] -Certain wannabe-furries like to try to beat you up with yellow rats that faint when in contact with mud [Poké Kids, Mud Slap. I mean no offense to furries] -It's possible to dive underwater for hours on end without any source of oxygen [Dive from R/S/E] -When the world is in imminent danger from two deities battling in a hollowed out volcano in the middle of an ocean, and the world is in danger of flooding, no one tries to do anything to stop them [Apathetic Citizens |
I've learned that until I get a pokemon, I am bound to one town that only has three buildings
Also, I have learned... placing rocks in just the right order almost always makes something dramatic happen no one seems to notice or care if you pull out a pokemon people only hear about in legends in battle All pokemon in a certain species are the same size and weight. always. Guys on guard only drink tea. There is always someone to hand you something for free eating candy makes you stronger. Day care people don't care if you don't have the money to pay them, they will keep your pokemon until you do whenever someone doesn't feel like doing something, they hand it off to you fossiles CAN be brought back to life! |
I've learned that swiming on the east end of an island will mess up your life. (Life being game.)
|
I've learned that when an electric bolt hits a human, they get better instantly.
|
I've learned that humans don't need to
-eat -drink liquid -rest or sleep -change their clothes (they don't need to, but they would smell) -be literate (sure, there is a pokemon school, but they only learn about pokemon! What happened to Math, Reading, Science, etc.) |
OMG THIS THREAD IS BACK!!!
Time to post the awesomeness I posted last time and other people posted last time: Be warned it's a lot! Zappy's List of 100 Things I have learnt from Pokemon - Yes it's actually 100 1. Its ok to wear the same clothes over and over again and not need to change for the next few years or so (yes that includes underwear) 2. The best way too get pocket money is to battle people for it 3. You can live a few years without eating 4. Going toilet is unnecessary 5. Ten year olds are allowed to roam the world later than their bedtime 6. Your mom doesn't really care for you and just your money (PKMN G/S/C) 7. Your Mom loves to buy stuff for you even though you will never really be at home to enjoy it. 8. No house has a toilet 9. Water is beaten by electricity ( What about water + a keyboard/computer/ electrical hard(soft)ware) 10. Psychic is not spelt phychic 11. It's ok to be in t-shirts and shorts any time of the year. Even in Winter 12. The only words that come out of your mouth are "......." 13. The main character's parents are divorced except in R/S/E - cause we actually know where your dad is 14. You don't need to learn the important stuff we need to learn now - who gives for school 15. You can ride a pokemon with a burning back(ponyta) without getting ur butt sizzled (pkmn special) 16. You can run without ever getting tired 17. That you can never bike inside 18. Pokemon that have already fainted can still fly you or surf you places 19. People call you often to tell you every bit of information in there life 20. That Ash wasn't good enough to meet Raikou 21. People will keep coming back to challenge even though they know they will still be beaten. 22. (G/S/C) This freaky dude called your Rival keeps stalking you and says he is better than you when really he just wants to get "closer" to you 23. If pikachu evolves Pokemon may Pokemon won't really have much of a point anymore. 24. Your mom doesn't care if you spend all your money gambling 25. No one cares if you walk into their house 26. People love saying the same thing over and over again without any sense of knowing any other vocabulary. 27. Evil organizations need better Pokemon than Zubat Wurple etc 30. Pokemon say their own name in the Anime but in the game they make weird screeching sounds. 31. Another stalker known as Dawn always ends up at the wrong place wrong time 32. Ash needs a birthday Party, I lost count of how old he is 33. Ash carries half a pokeball in his bag 34. Ash abandons his pokemon at Prof. Oaks place when he's in Pallet town and doesn't use them unless necessary. 35. You can get a lot of free stuff from random people no matter how valuable it is 36. People don't wait for your opinion they just battle you. No comment what so ever. 37. You can only do the lottery once a day 38. Swimmers practically live in the water, I've never seen them move from around there spots. 39. Same as 38 Hikers that never go out of caves, they'll go blind from never seeing the light. They musta been born there. 40. People need to move more often as in move from town to town more that just steps. 41. School is a place where there are hardly any students. 42. It's ok to climb mountains without the proper gear. 43. It's ok to walk in the snow just wearing a scarf and no proper snow gear. 44. We can't borrow someone's snowboard or skis in the snow we actually have to walk, we can't run either we HAVE t o walk 45. The sandstorm doesn't bother the trainer, same in a hailstorm 46. Huge creatures can be kept in tiny shere shaped things 47. People just give you thier number not caring what could happen. 48. Tiny mice can beat huge robots. 49. Prof. Oak forgets what his Grandson is called 50. A pokeball is like a boomerang - It comes back! 51. You can recognize bad guys jus by looking at their clothing. 52. Large evil organizations always send their guards at you one at a time and not all at once 53. Even if you have 1000000 in cash you get treated the same as anyone else 54. You can't exercise in Gyms anymore 55. If you get shocked by electricity or burned by fire you turn a black color and sizzle away without getting heart failure or such 56. No one really cares about 10 year olds gambling for dolls 57. that everyone from an evil organization claims to steal other people's Pokemon, but they still insist on using Zubat, Glameow, Stunky, Meowth, and the like. Over and over and over again. 58. Gym Leaders have extreme patience letting them to stand on one spot and still look awesome 59. If you spin around on the same spot really really fast you can change into a tux or a nice dress but only that 60. Police ppls only want to fight you at night 61. Experience in life is given to you by points 62. Most people only require a one room house that usually only has a bookcase and table in it. 63. That in order to Smash a rock or to cut a tree you need a badge otherwise you aren't ready to do so 64. I also learned that when a Pokemon faints, it won't wake up until you take it to a Pokemon Center or feed it a small, diamond-shaped piece of who-knows-what. Really, what do they make medicine out of? 65. Grunts in an evil HQ never raise the alarm after they lose - they just stand there 66. Oh, and playing lullabies wakes things up 67. Most 10-year-olds have the physical and mental capacity to run around an entire country 68. Stealing pokemon from trainers is bad, but breaking and entering into somebody's house to steal everything that isn't nailed to a wall is ok 69. Mythical gods can be controlled by a small child if they have enough flimsy pieces of colored metal. 70. The world stands completely still until you do something, and if you lose you can just try again! It's not like anything important will happen while you're gone 71. Birds without wings can fly you across a country despite how small they are 72. A live pink jell-o can reproduce with every living creature on the planet. Humans are probably included. 73. Viruses actually help you get stronger. 74. You haven't fully experienced ugliness until you see a rock-nose compass chunk and a ghost...thing that's sealed in a stone 75. Though many people have KO'd wild animals for experience, you never see any unconscious/dead bodies lying around after the battle 76. Digimon isn't supposed to exist. According to Professor Oak,"...you can't turn a soul into data!" How could he say that? So I've been watching a lie since 1999? I think NOT! He just doesn't want any Pokemon competition, I guess.. (I'm sorry my fellow digimon fan club members) 78. Oak didn't realize he would actually need 4 Pokemon stocked, not just 3 Pokemon and Pikachu... 79. Computer soldiers can cost way more in one game version's gambling prize redemption area than they do in another. 80. Pigs can fly, if given the chance. All they need is someone with expert hacking skills. 81. Even if you become a Champion, the Champion you beat will never leave the room, and you never get the title "Champion" to replace "Animal Trainer" in your name 82. Overgrown lilypads love to dance. 83. You have a 1 in 8192 chance of seeing funky-colored animals covered in glitter. 84. The government is so incompetent. 10-year-old kids are always required to end crises. And leaders of gyms almost freakin' everyone else in the world are/ is so lazy! Many of them have animals that are much stronger than your animals during the crises, so they could easily handle the situation themeselves. But NO... They just stand in their gyms/houses as if nothing's happening to the world. 85. If it's raining on a route right before a treehouse city, you just have to take one step into the city to make the rain disappear. 86. You can stand right next to your animals and get hit by hail, fire, water, rocks, sandstorms, earthquakes, and explosions without feeling a thing or getting hurt 87. Trainers often begin the first day of their career by oversleeping, being woken up by their mother, and being reminded that they slept so late that they missed the meeting with the Professor. 88. To be a professor you HAVE TO be named after a tree. If there is ever a Trainer with a last name that is a tree, then he or she must at some point become a Professor. 89. I learned that all species in the entire world lay eggs. 90. Even when in a life-or-death fight against an evil sociopath in an alternate universe, you still have to take turns. 91. Time travel is possible, but only for baseball-sized objects 92. Trainers don't have to fight said creatures themselves. They can let their pets do all the fighting for them. After all, better them than us. Unfortunately... 93. Moon Rocks can change the way creatures look 94. No scientist has ever bothered to find out what's under a diglett 95. Don't throw rocks at sparrows or taunt weak red flopping fish - You'll regret it later 96. Psychic creatures which have an IQ of over 5000 loves to play with spoons and nothing else 97. That goes the same with Farfetch'd except they'll hold nothing else but leaks - where do they get those things anyway? 98. Berries can also give you defense against certain attacks. And if you eat a berry you hate, you can get confused. 99. The only crime that exists is stealing other people's pokemon. Anything and everything else is excusable. And most importantly 100: Only people named Ash can save the world |
i learned you can become a successful world-famous champion without saying a word
|
I learned it's ok to beat up a little boy's Bidoof with a Rayquaza and steal all his money.
I also learned it's ok to take legendary Pokemon that protect the world and put them in a PC box. |
Ive learned that one 10 year old boy can save the world from dangerous criminals that plot to, I dunno, lets say floods and lava.
Ive learned that the police is virtually useless. Yes they do exist, just look at cerulean city (was it that one?) there is a police station. But do they take charge against criminals like team rocket? No Ive learned that there are no such things as hositals as the games. I guess the people who rule that land must not care enough to actually install hospitals Ive learned that pokemon medicine actually has the potential to cure someone (yes it happened in the anime when some old dude gave ash medicine for his stomach) Ive learned that there is no definate leader of the regions. I mean if the lands are based so much on japan, wouldnt there be a ruler for each region? No wonder there are actually criminals amok so much in those lands |
I have learned that you can only bring six animals with you on your adventure. XD
|
Ive learnt that even though you are a pokemon champ, you still have to face him again and again as if you wouldve never won in teh first place
|
i learned that you can run around an entire country for months or even years without calling or writing home, and when you do go back to visit, all mommy will do is say that you look tired, send you to take a nap, and send you on your merry way.
oh, and sleeping or resting heals your pets completey, without them coming out of their pokeballs. |
Ive learned that I can surf faster- provided I pay for another game+)
- That ground based animals can battle out in mid sea. - That every old person looks pretty much the same. - That you can achieve your dreams if you pit wild creatures against other wild creatures. |
I've learned:
- Television can only show three programs - It really ISN'T butter! - The only professional sport there is in this world is animal fighting |
I've learned that if you ever meet an old man he will send you to do his dirty work of seeing all the pokemon in the world.
I've also learned that if you force your pets to battle then no one will care because everyone else does it too. |
I've learned that fishes can breathe and live on land, even in the desert. (Hoenn region's desert, DPPt's Route...228, I think? You can send out a fish and it will act normal.)
|
|
I've learned that ghosts can die ("Faint" but no one believes that.)
|
Ive learned that when your ten years old you leave home on a dangerous adventure and your parents let you go :)
|
As of the movie I've seen tonight, if you go back in time, you can tell those people things of the future, and there are hardly any consequences. (Except killing gods)
|
Your bag has some sort of Time-lord technology inside of it, same with Pokeballs and accessory cases.
|
I learned that there are many variations of that red-and-white ball, the most powerful one being that Master something.
I learned that PCs can contain anything. |
I've learned that you can see the past and future if you stare at the sun long enough. (PMD reference. XD)
|
Quote:
This is so true, lol. - You can magically create a hole ten times as wide and twenty times as deep as your body in a split second, only to fall into an underground cavern without being injured and defying gravity by floating back to the surface. - A man with a Machop and a lot of time on his hands trying to build a building will NEVER make any progress. |
I've learned that you can instantly escape a massive, dark cave with a rope. (How does that make sense? XD)
|
I've learned that spinning at 100 mph will let you escape a cave. (using dig)
|
ive learned that your bag is like a black hole and that even when pokemon get killed in battle they magically can still use hm's
|
I've learned that using a CD on a Pokemon will teach them how to do something.
___ ___ O O __ |
Ive learnt that your bag is big enough to contain an entire bike, tent, medicine, pokemon slavery capture tools, fruit, and etc. without it being too heavy for a 10 year to handle. I even doubt that a grown man could carry all that (unless he is a body builder XD)
|
I've learned:
1:You can only turn into a Pokemon if a wandering spirit randomly chooses you to save the world. 2:A bird the size of even a mouse can carry you. 3:You depend on your pets to produce light because flashlights don't exist. 4:Never touch a fox's tail unless you want to get cursed for eternity! 5:Any berry you put in the ground will turn into a tree. 6:Tiny pink kittens are VERY hard to find. 7:Monkeys are purple!! (Aipom reference. :P) 8:You never talk. All you say is yes or no. XD |
It's completely normal for a ten year old kid to be given his/her own house in a very classy area.
The world can be in danger with ancient deities battling it out in a volcano, threatening the existence of the entire world, and a kid in a city not too far away will still be rambling on about a rock he was given. |
Ive learnt that once a pokemon is powerful enough, it will transform into an entire new diety!
|
I've learnt (and If this has been used already, don't mess wit me) that Enslaving Animals, Taking them away from their families, and using them to fight to the death for no specific reason isn't illegal. All's well that ends well. :t109:
|
I learned that even gods can be stuffed inside baseball-sized spheres.
|
That supposedly intelligent creatures can never learn to use human made objects. Even if their I.Q. is over 5000.
|
Animals don't die they just faint
Somehow you can scurry to a veterinary hospital when you're blacked out If all of your animals faint you should go to the last veterinary hospital you visited rather than the closest one |
heres some trivia Qs:
what pokemon does brock have? what type of gym is in fusia city? how many pokemon does sabrina have? below what city/town is route 21? what games are prof. oak in? why did ash have to start wit pikachu? wut type is arceus? how long has ash had pikachu? what region pokedexes is gastly in? where are ash,dawn, and brock now? what place did ash get totodile? is brock a boy or a girl? names of the rocket trio? what are the professors first names? The first one to answer the questions right wins one shiny shaymin lv 40 cuz I used my action replay while I still had it :l |
Trying to reviatalize this thread...
I've learned from the anime that Pokémon only heard about in legends will always come and seek the assistance of a 10 year old boy. (Though technically, Ash is now 22, since the anime premiered in 1997. So does that mean that Ash is a pedophile for traveling with Dawn?) I've learned from the games: - School is not important. 10 year old kids regularly go off and live on their own in villas without ever returning to complete their educations. - Every TV show ever aired deals exclusuively with Pokémon. There are no such things as sports, and news stations always have giant Pokéball graphics in the background. And, to the previous poster, your questions are either impossible to answer or easy to answer, with Bulbapedia or common sense. For example, Arceus doesn't have a set type. Sure, by default it's normal, but it can be any one of the 17 elemental types with a plate (plus the ???-type). And is Brock a boy or a girl? Really? |
I have learned:
Cats and Monkeys can be so annoying to other people (Persian and Ambipom =D) Purple cats are psychic.. (Espeon) Gods don't rule the world... 10 year old kids do.. |
I have learned that pokemon hardly ever run, unless they are annoying legendary dogs.
That the exact same freakish nurse clone resides in every pokemon center throughout the region. |
I've learned that we are all puny humans trying to play God with legendaries, who would crush us without a second thought or unintentionally destroy the world in one of their battles, and that our survival depends on some eternally 10 years old boy who has little motivation to catch pokemon, train his team, or learn effective battle techniques. I learned that once reality catches up to Ash, we're all doomed.
|
I've learned that you can make a living with little yellow cats.
I've learned there will always be a new god (Omg it's like real life!) Also that the said 10 year old doesn't even require food or beverages to survive; Only his thirst for domination satiates him. O- and trees can be made out of rock...? |
