My mom sent me this in a picture message. All I responded with was “swag of the highest level”
My favorite thing about playing any Pokémon game is that you can still use HMs when the Pokémon has fainted. Like, I just imagine a trainer surfing on passed-out Lapras, or flying through the air on an unconscious Pidgeotto, and it’s just the funniest thing to me. How can your little dude still push boulders if he’s dead? Too funny. Comedic genius.
The first gym leader to successfully pull off the “my head is just a giant penis” look.
My nephew came in while I was playing Pokemon Yellow, and this is what was on my screen.

And he looks at my computer and says, “Why does that guy only have one eye?”
I start to say, “What are you talking about? He has…” And then look at Raticate.

And then

my head exploded.
Fun fact! If you beat the Elite Four and Gary in Pokemon Yellow, but your Pikachu isn’t happy at the end of the game, it erases all of your saved data and prevents you from using any Pokemon other than Magikarp.
HOLY FUCKIN’ SHIT DUDE YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD IT WAS TO CATCH THIS LITTLE PRICK I MEAN THIS WAS LIKE THE EIGHTH ONE I RAN INTO AND THEY ALL KEPT RUNNING BECAUSE THE SAFARI ZONE IS THE SEVENTH CIRCLE OF HELL BUT I DID IT I CAUGHT A STUPID DRATINI AND I AM THAT MUCH CLOSER TO OBTAINING ONE OF MY FAVORITE POKEMON IN THE WHOLE GODDAMN WORLD

HOW DO YOU TURN OFF CAPS LOCK
I’m at the Safari Zone right now, or, as it’s otherwise known, “The place where you get angry and throw your Game Boy at a wall as hard as you can”.
