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 meme features an anime-style illustration set inside a subway car. A young man sits calmly, holding Squirtle, the iconic Water-type Pokemon, in his lap. Squirtle appears to be actively using the man's smartphone, as if it were a small child playing with a device. Above the illustration, a text caption reads: 'this dude letting his squirtle play on his phone while riding the subway is the backbone of our society'. The humor and wholesomeness come from framing the kind, gentle act of allowing a fictional Pokemon to use a phone as a fundamental, positive part of society, leaning into the endearing nature of treating fictional creatures with real-world care. The background includes other subway passengers, grounding the scene in a relatable, everyday setting.

This is a 3-panel hand-drawn web comic based on the Pokemon franchise. In the first panel, Misty peeks around a wall and asks Ash, "Can I borrow your Lickitung, Ash?" In the second panel, Ash smiles and agrees, asking "Sure, Misty! What for?" while his Lickitung sits beside him with its long tongue extended. The third panel delivers the punchline: Misty responds with a suggestive, playful expression saying "Pokemon stuff?" The joke relies on a double entendre: "Pokemon stuff" sounds like "poke 'em on stuff", implying a lewd, intimate use for Lickitung's tongue, which is the core humorous and suggestive twist of the comic.

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.

The image depicts a rectangular wooden plank with laser-engraved text and a graphic. The top portion contains three lines of text: First, 'Management: 'Don't use the laser engraver for non-work related purposes.''; second, 'Me: Uses laser engraver for non-work related purpose.'; third, 'Management:' followed by a blank space. Below the text, the lower portion of the plank features a detailed laser engraving of Pikachu's face, characterized by its large ears, round eyes, and open mouth, giving a surprised or shocked expression. The humor lies in the contrast between management's prohibition and the individual's playful defiance, with Pikachu's expression implying management's amused or startled reaction.

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 that combines a US weather map with Pokemon battle mechanics. The top text reads 'GREENLAND USED SNOW STORM!', the middle section features a weather map labeled 'US SNOW STORM' showing areas affected by hazardous cold, 12 inches of snow risk, and 1 inch of ice risk (including regions like Dallas and New York), and the bottom text states 'It's super effective!', parodying the Pokemon battle announcement format where a Pokemon's move is declared effective against an opponent.

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!

The meme features a top text section stating 'BLIND PEOPLE READING 'DO NOT TOUCH' IN BRAILLE' and a lower image of Pikachu, the yellow Pokémon character, displaying a shocked expression with wide eyes and an open mouth. The humor arises from the irony of a Braille sign labeled 'Do Not Touch,' as Braille requires physical contact to read, creating a paradox. Pikachu's exaggerated shocked reaction amplifies the comedic effect by visually representing surprise at this contradiction.

A two-panel meme utilizing screenshots from the animated series 'Tom and Jerry'. The top panel depicts Tom (the brown cat) and Jerry (the gray mouse) engaged in an intense sword fight, with an overlaid text caption reading: 'My parents arguing whether I'll become a doctor or an engineer'. The bottom panel features a close-up of a small, cheerful mouse (likely Jerry) with a wide smile, accompanied by the text: 'Me who has already decided to be a Pokemon Trainer'. The meme humorously contrasts parental pressure towards traditional career paths (doctor/engineer) with the child's whimsical, non-traditional aspiration of becoming a Pokemon Trainer, leveraging the iconic Tom and Jerry conflict to symbolize the parents' argument.
