Traveling across the land, searching far and wide, players begin to notice quite a few discrepancies about the world. It's a game series with children as its target audience, but it is now under the microscope given its widespread popularity. The Pokémon games make no sense and this is proven in this compilation of memes. Because of with the wrong typing and a kooky professor who can't remember his grandson's name, the Pokémon games are nonsensical. Frank, but truthful, you can't doubt these memes' logic. These are 10 Pokémon memes that prove the games make no sense! THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY The Affable Professor Oak
This meme doesn't try to stand out, it only states a fact about the Pokémon world. is possibly the most irresponsible adult in anime because he is willing to give ten-year-old children fire-breathing animals. He will place children in danger by gifting them an untamed creature without remorse. Something is amiss! Of course, we have to recognize that the Pokémon world isn't a real place. As much as we want Pokémon to be real, its surreal setting proves time and time again that it isn't. Pokémon Element Type Logic Be Like
The Dragon-type is a controversial element in Pokémon because of its flawed characterizing. Finally, the Pokémon Company gave into the woes of fans by introducing Charizard's Mega Evolution, Mega Charizard X, a Dragon-type. Of the Pokémon mentioned in this meme, all of them appear to be part Dragon-type except for Altaria (bottom-right). Altaria looks more like a Grass-type than anything else. Perhaps the Pokédex needs to reclassify old Pokémon. The makes no sense! Why Do We Always Forget Togepi
Togepi is a forgotten character in the Pokémon game series. Lest we forget that Togepi was introduced early in the Pokémon anime. Starting as an egg, Togepi was eventually hatched into a baby Pokémon. Although we don't see Togepi win a battle in the anime, Togepi has the potential to win fights in the game. Near the beginning of an egg containing Togepi is obtained from Professor Elm. Despite being central in the game series and anime, hardly anyone wants to use Togepi in their meme. Who Would Win
Reading journals in Cinnabar Island's Pokémon Mansion, players learn of a great threat. It is discovered that there is a genetically modified Pokémon resting in the Cerulean Cave. More powerful than any Pokémon in existence, there's no telling what it is capable of doing. This meme addresses the anti-climatic ending of the first generation of Pokémon games. If all that was needed was a Master Ball to stop Mewtwo's terror, wouldn't exist. Looks Like A Poké Ball Feels Like A Poké Ball Oh It s Just A Potion
This meme addresses one of the most apparent inconsistencies in the Pokémon games. For some reason, the items in the game You approach Poké Balls expecting to encounter a Pokémon, but you find a potion. Sometimes you approach a Poké Ball, and the item that appears is a Poké Ball. Everything you instinctively know is put to rest when items look like Poké Balls. This part of the games needs to change. Players around the world are outraged by these items that look like Poké Balls. Makes No Sense
This meme explains that Pokémon can learn attacks that don't fit! For instance, take a look at the Pokémon Wooper (top-left). Wooper has no arms, and it can learn Ice Punch! Shroomish (top-right) can learn Focus Punch, and it also has no arms! If you can somehow rationalize that the previous two Pokémon can learn punching moves, why can't Yanmega (bottom-left) learn Fly? Only a Jackie Chan meme could explain how we are feeling at this moment. Water Versus Potion
How is that a Potion can heal less HP than Fresh Water? There must be a drought in the Pokémon world, although we see plenty of water in the games and anime. Purchasing Fresh Water is more costly than a Potion, and it heals significantly less HP. Most Pokémon trainers would think that scientifically crafted Pokémon medicine would heal more HP than a regular bottle of water. On the contrary, A bottle of water has better healing power than a Potion. Which Currency Does Pokémon Use
The first Pokémon games, Pokémon Red and Green, originated in Japan. Japan is a country that generally has free health care, which could explain why health care is free in the games. However, this doesn't explain why lemonade costs $350! Perhaps the Pokémon world has a devalued currency, which is why the price of a lemonade drink from a vending machine is high. It would not be very easy for the Pokémon Company to explain their way out of this one. It's another reason why the games make no sense! A Mouthful Of Grimer
An unsuspecting Wartortle would find itself with a mouthful of sludge if it took a bite of a Grimer. To get some background on this meme, Grimer is a Pokémon that feeds on sewage waste to survive. Pokémon logic must be incorrect if a Wartortle can bite into a Grimer or Muk without consequences. In reality, Wartortle would be As a Pokémon that oozes a bacteria-rich fluid, Grimer's body should act as a self-defense mechanism. This is another example of the Pokémon games' faulty logic. Forgets Your Name
The Pokémon games begin with Professor Oak's nonsensical questions. How the series became a success with such a troubling starting is beyond us. In Pokémon Red and Blue, Professor Oak asks, "First, what is your name?" Later games in the series added a gender question. Professor Oak's laboratory is in Pallet Town, mere steps away from the protagonist's home. It's not clear where Oak's house is, but we can assume it's in Pallet Town as well. For someone who lives a few steps away from the protagonist for his entire life, it's strange that he doesn't know your most basic personal information.
