There's a Pokemon for Everything!

I don't suppose anyone will find this funny unless their kids are avid Pokemon fans. Adreine and Jacob can not only draw almost every Pokemon creature, they can also tell you its name, what it evolved from, and what's its special power is. They are even better than the kids in the cartoon. Even Ash has to carry around his pocket computer to keep track of them all. (Adreine is watching me type this, and she just corrected me, "It's not a pocket computer, Mom, it's a Poke-Dex!")

See what I mean?

Adam and I chuckle and roll our eyes at the corny names and obvious puns as each new critter is introduced in the Pokemon episodes. There's Geo-Dude who is just a rock with eyes. Psy-Duck who, you guessed it, is a duck with psychic powers.

But I think the one we saw today has got to be the most ridiculous. Wait for it...


Meet Pinecone Pokemon!!!


And if that wasn't silly enough, the sound he makes in battle is a low, growling, "PIIIINE COOOOOOOONNNEEEE!!!!"

Adam and I looked at each other from across the living room with a 'WTH' expression on our faces. The kids are already at the kitchen table drawing it for their collection. When they want to play with a new toy they don't have yet, they draw it and play with the drawing instead. Yeah, I know, right?

You'll have to excuse me. I am still getting over this flu crud and it hurts to laugh.

Now everytime Adam can catch me off guard, he's gonna sneak up behind me and say, "PIIIIIINE COOOOONNE!!!"
