20 Things Only Pokémon Fans Will Understand
16. The Pokédex Is Full Of Some Scary Sh*t
Pokédex entries across the video games and the TV series provide some wonderful enlightenment about the behaviour and history of all Pokémon. But while some provide cute insights into the swarming habits of baby Pichus, a few are just a tad more sinister when you really think about it.
Consider Drifloon, for example, whose Pokédex entry in Heart Gold reads as follows:
It is whispered that any child who mistakes Drifloon for a balloon and holds on to it could wind up missing.
And that's not the only unsavoury entry in the games. Over the years all manner of Ghost and Psychic types have been described as having some pretty awful habits, especially around children. While the idea of living as a Pokémon Trainer may seem like an appealing fantasy, these regions may not be all sweetness and light after all.
