How well do you really know Pokémon’s incredibly detailed world?
Pokémon is without a doubt one of the most identifiable franchises on the face of the planet and has become nothing short of a phenomenon. The Pokémon world is so much more than just the video games, with the cute yet dangerous ‘Mon plastered over comics, anime, films and trading cards. The absurdly weird and wonderful Pokémon have slowly taken over the world.

The layer upon layer of history has introduced a fascinating and surprising level of detail.
Some of this detail is often overlooked, including Rhydon statues randomly splashed throughout the games, unique talents some of the ‘Mon possess, and confirmed myths that makes the world of Pokémon a dark and twisted one.
