This meme displays three images of the Pokémon character Bulbasaur arranged in a left-to-right progression. The leftmost image is an official sprite from older Pokémon video games showing Bulbasaur with a grumpy, annoyed expression, while the middle and right images are newer official promotional art of Bulbasaur looking progressively more happy and excited. Below the images, text compares Bulbasaur's change in presentation from grumpy Pokémon to cheerful 'cabbage frog' (a playful nickname for Bulbasaur referencing the plant bulb on its back), and encourages viewers to maintain positivity through difficult periods just like Bulbasaur did.

This image displays a custom printed parody holographic Pokémon trading card inside a clear plastic protective sleeve, placed on a marble-patterned countertop. The card parodies the iconic rare 1st edition Base Set Charizard Pokémon card, featuring a heavily modified, extremely curvy and overweight ('thicc') version of the fire-type Pokémon Charizard. All text on the card is altered to lean into the comedic, suggestive 'thicc' joke, including renaming the character Thicc Charizard, noting it evolves from Thicc Charmeleon, adding a joke Pokémon power, a 100 damage 'Fire Ring' attack, and lewd double entendre flavor text referencing 'cheek friction fires' that alludes to the character's exaggeratedly large buttocks.

This is a wholesome, silly anticlimactic pun meme. It opens with text from user fableph that reads 'Hi I have something very important to show you', then shows a drawing of the Grass-type starter Pokemon Turtwig standing centered on a small stage in front of pink curtains, with text at the bottom that says 'carry on'. The joke is a gentle visual pun: Turtwig literally 'carries on' (carries a growing leaf sprout on his back), while the phrase 'carry on' also means to continue proceeding, creating a funny anticlimax.

This is a single-panel meme that uses an edited image of Pikachu from Pokémon wearing white-framed sunglasses to express how the creator feels after downvoting every advertisement they see on Reddit. Pikachu's cool, smug expression perfectly matches the joke: the meme frames downvoting unwanted ads on Reddit as a noble duty, making the user feel like a cool, heroic do-gooder cleaning up their feed, which aligns with the original title quote "I’m no hero, I’m just doing my duty."

This is a wholesome internet meme that shows a person's hand holding a small real brown lizard that resembles the popular Pokémon character Charmander. In the background, a laptop screen is covered with dozens of different illustrations of Charmander, acting as positive role models for the real lizard. The text caption at the top explains the joke: the owner is giving their real lizard (that looks like Charmander) good examples to follow, leaning into the resemblance between the real animal and the fictional Pokémon.

This side-by-side comparison meme compares the cost of two hobby items: a good quality 3D printer priced at $550, and the official large Lego set featuring the three original Kanto starter Pokémon (Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise) priced at $650. The unspoken punchline is that since the 3D printer is cheaper than the retail Lego set, you can purchase the 3D printer and print your own custom version of the Pokémon model instead of buying the expensive official set, which aligns with the core premise that a good 3D printer lets you make whatever you want.

This meme uses a background photograph of a glass of beer, overlaid with text that lists iconic 2000s-era events and pop culture moments, framing them as a collective 'nostalgic feeling'. The text references: Shia Labeouf's arrest, Britney Spears' legal troubles, U.S. involvement in Middle East wars, Pokémon's resurgence in popularity, Hilary Duff's tour, and Bill Clinton's 1990s testimony (a reference that bleeds into 2000s cultural memory). The humor comes from the cyclical nature of these events and trends, evoking nostalgia for the 2000s by presenting these familiar moments as a throwback.

This is a two-panel collage meme. In the left panel, a toddler in an orange Magikarp (Pokémon) costume sits on the floor with an unimpressed expression, while an adult man lies beside them, gesturing excitedly. In the right panel, the toddler pulls the costume's hood over their face, making it appear as the open mouth of a Magikarp, with the same adult man kneeling and leaning toward them. Below the panels is a social media post from the account 'pokemonperfect' with the humorous text: 'If this kid comes back in like 20 years dressed as a massive buff gyarados I’ll eat my shirt'. The joke references the iconic Pokémon evolution line, where the weak Magikarp evolves into the large, powerful Gyarados, making a playful, bold prediction about the child's future cosplay.

This meme responds to the question "What would you do if you had 4 arms?" with a humorous, wholesome visual gag. The four-armed Pokémon character Machamp has each of its limbs replaced by a photo of a human hand petting a different cat. The joke leans into the widespread internet affection for cats, framing the ultimate use of extra arms as fulfilling the relatable desire to pet multiple cats simultaneously. The visual perfectly aligns Machamp's iconic four limbs with the fantasy of giving affection to several cats at once, creating a lighthearted, relatable scenario for animal lovers.

A vertical compilation meme featuring edited screenshots from the Pokémon anime, centered around the iconic phrase 'It's super effective!'

A two-panel meme. Top panel: A Pokémon trainer (likely from Pokémon Scarlet/Violet DLC) facing a large, imposing Pokémon (possibly Ogerpon) with a menacing stance. Bottom panel: A handwritten cardboard sign held in a city at night, with text: 'Our expectations For you were low but HOLY FUCK' (with 'low' underlined and 'HOLY FUCK' in large, bold letters). The meme humorously expresses extreme disappointment with a $30 Pokémon DLC, implying even low expectations were not met.

A meme combining a text caption with a screenshot of Pikachu from the Pokémon animated series. The top text reads: 'The Fantastic Four when the guy named Victor Von Doom turns out to be evil:'. Below the text is an image of Pikachu with a shocked expression—wide eyes, raised eyebrows, and an open mouth—conveying exaggerated surprise. The background is a blurred green, typical of outdoor scenes in the Pokémon anime. The humor lies in the sarcastic implication that Victor Von Doom (Dr. Doom), a famously villainous character from Marvel Comics, has an obviously evil name and persona, making the Fantastic Four's shocked reaction (represented by Pikachu) comically unnecessary.

Wow, who could’ve seen that coming!
