6 Strange and Creepy Pokedex Entries
Happy Halloween!
Just in case anyone forgot Pokemon is full of nightmare fuel.
WAIT WHAT ABOUT THAT LAST ONE WITH KADABRA I DON’T REMMBER READING THAT.
FireRed I think?
Don’t forget that in the original games, you could infer that Victreebel have been know to eat humans (they’re said to live deep in the jungle…but nobody has ever returned). A person licked by a Haunter will shake uncontrollably until they die because it steals their life force. Gothitelle cries when it learns its trainer’s lifespan. Heatmor MELTS Durant to consume them—using its tongue it melts through their shells and eats their insides.
There is some very unsettling stuff in Pokemon. And that’s not even getting into the tragic events/side events presented in the games.
Also, friendly reminder that people eat Pokémon! Basculin’s entry specifically states that they’re remarkably tasty—no indication that its not humans who find them yummy.
And let’s not forget this cutie
Was once a human.
It’s pokedex entry reads:
Each of them carries a mask that used to be its face when it was human. Sometimes they look at it and cry.
These Pokémon arose from the spirits of people interred in graves in past ages. Each retains memories of its former life.
IT IS WELL AWARE THAT IT IS NO LONGER HUMAN.YOU ARE USING A FORMERLY HUMAN CREATURE TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR FRIEND’S PETS.
How did it get that way you ask?
Why, by being birthed by it’s evolved form, of course! Which, by the way, looks like this:
and whose pokedex entry reads (depending on your version) :
It has been said that they swallow those who get too close and turn them into mummies. They like to eat gold nuggets.
They pretend to be elaborate coffins to teach lessons to grave robbers. Their bodies are covered in pure gold.
IT EATS ANYONE STUPID ENOUGH TO GET CLOSE TO IT.
SWEET DREAMS.
And let’s not forget about these fuckers:
One of it’s earliest pokedex entires reads:
It attacks in a stealthy manner, without warning. It’s sharp fangs are used to bite and suck blood.
which isn’t so bad except—
Once it strikes, it will not stop draining energy from the victim even if it gets too heavy to fly.
oh
It loves the blood of both humans and Pokemon. It flies around at night in search of neck veins.
Do you know what this means? THIS THING GORGES ITSELF ON HUMANS AND POKEMON. ALSO, IT’S FANGS ARE SHARP ENOUGH TO PIERCE SOME PRETTY THICK HIDES.
SLEEP WELL.
Litwick shines a light that absorbs the life energy of people and Pokémon, which becomes the fuel that it burns.
While shining a light and pretending to be a guide, it leeches off the life force of any who follow it.
not to bad right?
This ominous Pokémon is feared. Through cities it wanders, searching for the spirits of the fallen.
It arrives near the moment of death and steals spirit from the body.
The spirits it absorbs fuel its baleful fire. It hangs around hospitals waiting for people to pass on.
OH
It absorbs a spirit, which it then burns. By waving the flames on its arms, it puts its foes into a hypnotic trance.
Being consumed in Chandelure’s flame burns up the spirit, leaving the body behind.
The spirits burned up in its ominous flame lose their way and wander this world forever.
HHHHHHHHMMMMMM
Apologies for the length of this post, but I do always enjoy pointing out the creepy stuff in Pokemon.
some of dem pokemon, man.
Dubbed by 4kids, y'all. Between this and season zero of Yu-Gi-Oh being the most disturbing thing EVER (hey let’s play a card game in a restaurant oops I just set you on fire in a restaurant surrounded by people har har) the studio is a very kid friendly company, yeah?
Minnesota House PASSED the freedom to marry bill. Now it moves onto the Senate on Monday. If it passes there, then I begin my epic plan for the biggest, geekiest wedding EVER!
i’m watching Extreme Couponing and i just saw a woman rack up a charge of over $1000 and then her coupon game was so fucking raw by the end of it the store owed her $8. what the fuck
“her coupon game was so fuckin raw” is basically the best string of words ever concocted
O.K. I watch this show too and it’s just crazy like I saw some woman rack up like $2500 and in the end the store gave her store credit back because they owed her money. Just… yeah. Because I guess with the right set of coupons buying 57 tubes of toothpaste makes you money.
D'awwwww I was ready to sigh heavily at the chart because I remember charts like this when I was a kid and how I always surpassed the weight. Instead, I got hit with feels :)

OH MY FUCKING CHRIST IM WATCHING BLACK BUTLER IN ENGLISH FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I SPIT MY FUCKING DRINK AND SCARED MY CAT JESUS CHRIST WHAT SEBASTIAN FUCCK I JUST I FUCK.
THIS MUTHERFUCKER IS TRYIN TO MAKE ME PREGNANT WHAT
So I didn’t share this story yet but I will. So, at Anime Detour this year, I made a Sebastian woodburning for the charity auction. I asked the girl in charge of the auction if I could come by before the con for J. Michael Tatum (Sebastian’s V.A.) to sign it. She asked guest relations and it was decided that, yes, that would be a good idea.
So I was sitting in the hotel lobby on Thursday night (there was a HUGE SNOWSTORM GOING ON BTW THAT WE DROVE THROUGH) and he walked through the door. I kinda just sat there like, “Ahahahaha… not moving, no, just… no he’s… no,” because I get really stuttery stupid around guests I like.
So the guy in charge of guest relations walks over and tells him the situation. Meanwhile, Greg Ayres walks over, and he recognizes me and my partner because he goes to every con in the universe (seriously I adore him) and because we spoke at the “It Gets Better” panel did a few years back. Greg is like, “Hey ladies,” to me and my partner and we hug and stuff, and THAT’S when Detour’s guest relations guy brings J. Michael Tatum over. I’m like, “OMG OMG OMG,” and Greg is like, “Hey these ladies are awesome,” right in front of J. Michael Tatum.
So my brain is like, going into shock, and I kinda just hand him the woodburning to sign. And he SPAZZES over it, like, “OMG YOU MADE THIS AMAZING!” Then he posts a picture on twitter (which ironically we had a bunch of people wander over to our table on Friday lol). Then he hugs me, and I’m like, “OMG HE’S HUGGING ME!”
So I let him pick a coaster he wants, just to have, and he picks the NO H8 Sebastian coaster I had made. I’m like, “Yeah this topic means a lot to me I’ve been with my partner for 11 years.” He’s like, “OMG AWESOME I’VE BEEN WITH MY BOYFRIEND FOR 12 YEARS!” Then he signs my Black Butler boxset and we get a picture together.
BUT THE STORY ISN’T OVER!
So on Sunday we go to the “It Gets Better” panel and he’s on it. So after the panel (in which I shared my story sort of and just… yeah) I go up to him to tell him how the woodburning did (went up to $115, it started at $50, so I call that a victory) and I get hugged again. So I’m standing there like, “Uh… so… can I ask a favor?” He’s like, “Yeah?” And I’m like, “… can you do the Sebastian voice?” And I feel really derpy, like, “Der I can’t stop smiling and blushing and can barely look him in the eye but I’M GONNA MAKE IT THROUGH THIS O.K.?!”
So then he leans in. And whispers into my ear, “Is that an order,” in the Sebastian voice.
And… do you ever feel your face about to melt from how hot it’s getting? Because that’s what happened to me. And I kinda just like turned away like, “Lord have mercy on me,” and ducked into my partner’s arms like, “Oh god I’m going to die right now.” Later, after we left the room, her and my friend were like, “What was that reaction about?” Because they didn’t hear what he had said.
I told them what he said and they immediately understood.
So that’s my J. Michael Tatum Anime Detour story.
On and here’s the woodburning in question:
I still wonder who it went home to. Whoever you are, thank you so much, and I hope it makes you happy :)

Piccolo reacting to things.
just a reminder that this is the same piccolo that once beat the living piss out of goku and nearly killed him
why is he so adorable???
That one comment though, sometimes I forget that once upon a time Piccolo was hella evil.
