How stupid are the very first Pokemon games, Red, Blue and Yellow? Let's find out!

Choose which starter you will spam through the entire game, get your Master Ball ready to be Missingno-cloned and prepare to fight countless idiots who only use Rattata's Tail Whip.

Oh yeah, and Yellow is different from Red and Blue. No, really, shush, it is.

Let’s see how stupid the Pokemon anime is, starting with episode one, “Pokemon, I Choose You.”

TV con-man Professor Oak gives a horribly unqualified child a license to cockfight. This boy is armed to the teeth with a mistreated taser-mouse and he will go forth, without adult supervision, on a quest to abuse and poach all animals who stand in his way. He is Ash Ketchum and he is erm… the hero of this story? ...Somehow?
