10 Video Game Moments Everyone Misunderstood As Kids

3. Swimmer’s Hidden Pokeballs - Pokemon X & Y

The second Pokémon entry on this list (and there honestly could have been a lot more) leaves far less to the imagination than Primape’s bragging. There’s no chance of translation errors or metaphors coming into play here; one of the NPCs is just straight up filthy.

Like all the main series Pokémon games, X & Y feature Swimmers as one of the many NPC trainers you can battle against. These trainers have never really been known for their dialogue - a Youngster in Red, Blue & Yellow proudly tells you he likes shorts - but this X & Y Swimmer is either flirting or playing some mind games with you before the battle.

Producing two Pokéballs, she tells you where she hides them is a ‘woman’s secret’. Remember, this trainer is a swimmer. She’s wearing nothing but a bikini. No handbag or anything like that. The most obvious place is in the bikini top, which in itself is a little much for a kid’s game.

And if it’s not, any other hiding place is so much worse. Hopefully she washes them once she’s used them.
