Pokémon

Pokémon is a video game series, anime, manga, and movie series that surrounds creatures called Pokémon and people who catch and raise them. Some of these people raise Pokémon and use them in battle—these people are known as trainers. Trainers can compete against other trainers to see which one is better than the other. There are some trainers in the Pokémon world who act as bosses in the Pokémon games named Gym Leaders. These Gym Leaders, upon defeat by the player, will give a badge to them. Most of the time, a badge will be necessary to progress in the games to prevent weak players from going into areas they weren't ready for.

Many things in the Pokémon world have been created in the name of Pokémon, such as the Poké Ball (a capsule used for catching Pokémon), PokéCenter (a clinic for Pokémon), and Poké Mart (a store for items relating to Pokémon).

Characters
The Goofball Bad Guys - Team Rocket's Jessie, James, and Meowth. This trio of goofs made their best tries at nabbing that not-so-rare-or-special Pikachu from that goddamned Ash Ketchum over the years. ''They got 'im. Like, twice or some shit. I dunno, I never watched the fuckin' cartoons.'' The amount of times they were BLASTING OFF AGAAAAAAAAAIN is beyond alarming as Realistic Reality says that even after their first blast-off, their landing would have broken many bones in their bodies and rendered them useless to their boss, Geovanni. A few more blast-offs and they'd be dead from sustaining so many injuries.

The Main Guy - Ash Ketchum. Ever since he began his "little" dream of catching every single Porkyman in existence—even the legendaries, mythics, and otherwise annoying-to-catch 'mans (like FUCKING ABRA )—in his hometown Pallet Town with his mom Delia Ketchum, he's been the Main Guy of the series' anime, movies, and some fan games.

Misc.
Real Life Ruins Everything - Some religious people have a problem with the entire idea of Pokémon evolving as they don't believe in it; PETA despises the idea of children using small animals (despite the fact not all Pokémon are small or animals) for "cockfights" and even went as far as to create their own parody of Pokémon Black and White. Fortunately, Pokémon fans have strongly retaliated against these remarks and attacks on the Pokémon franchise.

The Title Warned Us - You know, all 'em things you gotta catch?
