* Regarding [[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue the original games]], do ''not'' say with a straight face that Lickitung evolves into [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Luigi]] when fed a RareCandy while holding the UsefulNotes/GameBoy upside-down. The source is an old article published by Nintendo of America that was written as an April Fools' joke, and therefore is not meant to be taken seriously. Similarly, there is no way to evolve Dragonite into [[VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld Yoshi]]; that was also an April Fools' joke published by ''Expert Gamer'', which was unaffiliated with Creator/GameFreak or Creator/{{Nintendo}}.

* Saying that ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'' is edgy or needlessly dark (especially by talking about the Koga's Arbok scene) won't go well, since they generally want others to know that the Arbok scene isn't representative of the entire series.

(And it's not even as dark as it seems out of context; the Arbok survived.)

Redundancy.


** [[HilariousInHindsight Amusingly]], ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' replaces the Elite Four with the anime's League Conference under the name "Champion's Cup". Double irony is that this is after [[spoiler:Ash won his first Pokémon League Conference]] and Galar is the first region where Ash will not be staying for the majority of the 2019 series, which instead favors a world tour across all the regions.
