extremely wrong about tonguemaster. you must have meant to put A Lot Of Bugs instead, but just forgot.
I WILL BROOK NO ARGUMENTS
moles-a-poppin’ almost made me pee my pants
I thought it said moles-a-poopin … yeah.
What, no illustration of problematic bird?
There are too many choices. Problematic Fire Bird, Problematic Ice Bird, Problematic Electric Bird, Problematic Bird That Carries A Leek, Problematic Bird With Too Many Heads…
…Problematic Bird That Tries Real Hard But Falls Behind The Other Birds Nonetheless
THIS IS SOME CONTENT I CAN GET BEHIND 500%
IF we have to stick with the original 151 (Creed arms into a sea of haters), you are totally missing Grandpa Raided The Silverware Drawer but okay, I’ll allow it.
Cool cats love and value all 600something pokemons.
“GRANDPA, if you bend it like that it’s going to be even harder for you to eat your soup.”
Shocked and disappointed that Hardbody wasn’t another hunky tomato
Uh I think you mislabled which one is hardbody
I really like how dugtrio-as-muscular-embracing-subterranean-men has become canon at this point.
<3 the Sexy Dugtrio group at Otakon this weekend made. my. life. god bless.
Sexy Dugtrio (or at least A Sexy Dugtrio; I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a whole cohort of them, like the Blue Man Group) was at ACen last month, and I pretty much died right there on the con floor.
This was the best possible week to have the entire office to myself. I can snort-laugh with abandon.
I feel the Pokeymans Project may also be of interest to enjoyers of this delightful list.
“but what about–”
*IS TRAMPLED TO DEATH BY DIRTHORSES*
one time i beat team arugula in the caves of mount moo with just a hardbody after my onionback and rock-bro had fainted (along with the rest of my team). really capitalized on the hardness of the body.
My partner and I just spent like half an hour the other day having a conversation about Magikarp because we couldn’t remember what it evolves into.
Which is to say, this is perfect and wonderful and relevant to my interests.
(PS – Magikarp evolves into Gyarados, for those of you wondering)
An old friend of mine used to talk about people who think they’re Gyarados but really they’re Magikarp and I love busting out that burn or variations on it every once in a while.
floating ball of smog and trash is the best imho but these are good.
If you must delete my comment so be it.
It’s bothering me a lot more than I’d expect that not all 20 best Pokémon are pictured…
I really want to see what Problematic Bird looks like. Is there a vague racial caricature involved?
Yes. I have given up on caring which one is neopet (probably none of them in particular) and now must know of Problematic Bird!
Maybe it’s the bird that carries around its own soup ingredients for your convenience when killing and eating it?
I have a strong fanfic-styled feeling that Problematic Bird and birdrightsactivist from twitter are probably related.
I was sorely disappointed not to see a picture of horror turtle, myself
l’eggs is amazing, but I wouldn’t say no to more hunky vegetables either…
Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
So, it should be obvious, I know, but what is the order here? Is Dirthorse the best one or is Trashghost?
Dirthorse is clearly the best one. Ya noob.
See, and here I thought it would be Trashghost, but maybe it’s a little played out with all the merchandising and the movies. Clearly I am a noob.
Agreed. How can Dirthorse be #1 if we’re not allowed to know what it looks like?
Maybe part of Dirthorse’s appeal to Matt is its elusive nature. It’s like they say “Where is Dirthorse? What’s he look like? Nobody’s seen a Dirthorse!”
Having no familiarity whatsoever with Pokemon, I am enjoying this purely as a bit of absurdist art.
Being a 24-year-old who just got her first Pokemon game on Saturday, I am rethinking my choice to name them all after superheroes. (Though I may make an exception for L’Egg.)
Quick everyone, blow the dust out of your Pokemon Snap cartridges and LET’S ROLL!
Can we have this AND more hunky vegetables?
yes, this
Aaah, you wrote the piece about what to do when your opinion doesn’t matter last week just so we knew what to do with our opinions about this, didn’t you.
He’s working the long game here.

wait, how do you know my wife, “horror turtle” is what she calls my
nvm
i would like to see Regular Cat vs. Wrongapuss in battle, please
I’m pretty sure that by “L’Eggs” you meant “Dramatic Dancing Pineapple.” Just sayin’.
noooo that’s not in the original 151, but I’m always here for (as I have dubbed him) Mariachi Pineapple Acorn Duck
IS HE MISSING A LEG?
He is missing L’Eggs
False, Cyndaquil and Mareep are the best pokemons.
I was talking to my younger cousins about Pokemon on vacation the other week and while I had no idea who most of them were because they were either after my time or just not memorable enough for me to recall years later after only being moderately invested in Pokemon, I managed to remember Mareep and claim that was the best one. It’s a cute electric sheep! What’s not to love?
I WILL BROOK NO ARGUMENTS
My spouseman recently acquired a shiny Drippo and it is WONDERFUL and GREEN and DISGUSTING. I believe he named it Moosh.

Seeing this post triggered something in my brain and I sent an urgent Facebook message to my boyfriend asking “IS ASH KETCHUM’S SURNAME A REFERENCE TO THE “GOTTA CATCH’EM ALL” POKEMON SLOGAN?”. Apparently I have been missing the pun for 15 years or so.
Wait. WAIT. Are these real Pokemons. Isn’t Pokemon that yellow thing. WHAT.
help me i am an old
Is it possible that we have finally found a replacement for when your partner orgasms, and you awkwardly embrace them and say "Well done, Draco"? Because I feel like a high five and GO! GORDITA! Might just work…..
I have now sent this to all my nerdiest friends, and am calmly waiting to hear the heads explode, all across the country….
me: “my favorite pokemon isn’t going to be here, I know I’m going to be disappointed but I’m reading it anyway”
I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED, moles-a-poppin’ is my actual favorite Pokemon
