Pokemon: 10 Fire-Type Memes Only True Fans Understand | Game Rant

Pokemon has been a part of so many childhoods. What started back in 1996 as a game has become a full-blown media franchise. This means the series had to go through not just one but two decades of evolution, no puns intended. Pokemon nowadays is a lot different from what it used to be, and that’s because it is a blend of multiple generations.

That said, the core of the formula is still the same. The major difference is that there are many more Pokemon to discover and many new types to catch. But there’s one type that is probably the most famous; some may even call it overrated.

10 Why Would You Do That?

Fire is one of the first few types people discover when consuming Pokemon content. Now people might say that Fire-type Pokemon are overexposed, but are they? There are plenty of people who love them, but that is not the only reason they are popular.

The best part of a Fire-type Pokemon is that they are effective against a variety of types. Especially Steel, which is considered to be the strongest type by TheGamer.

9 Fire Types Always Win

This Feraligatr picked a fight with a Fire-type, and it is not going to end well. Fire Pokemon not only burn their opponents but they can also roast them with words, even if they are a Water-type.

Moreover, why was it even acting tough? Feraligatr is a great Pokemon, but it seems like the creators purposely handicapped it post-evolution by making it incredibly slow. Got to feel for the poor guy.

8 The Best Is Yet To Come

Two big parts of the Pokemon experience is catching different types and establishing a bond with the team. While it might sound sweet, imagine if the same experience is shoved down the player’s throat year after year. Imagine if the starter Pokemon always evolve into the same types as the previous generations.

Well, that is exactly what is happening with the Fire/Fighting-type, and people are getting sick of it. It is happening to the point that comics like this are being made to justify the frustration.

7 Should’ve Saved Some Other Pokemon

This meme is funny for a whole different reason. The life cycle on earth is pretty complex, but it is nothing compared to the complexity of the Pokemon universe. There are so many different kinds of Pokemon who are trying to co-exist similar to animals.

However, one difference is that these are dangerous creatures who have elemental abilities. Consequently, befriending them is not always a smart thing to do. Ash did this mistake when he saved a Charmander, only to be roasted by its evolved form again and again.

6 Toxic Friendships Can Kill You

Charmander has the best memes ever because it is such a naive Pokemon. Being one of the originals from Generation I, this little lizard is someone many fans would never forget. However, Charmander is not only adorable but also a badass.

There aren’t many Pokemon who can go face to face with death and return; however, Charmander walks with death, breaths with death, and befriends death. His death being water.

5 Do You Feel Sad?

Here’s something pretty nostalgic and painful at the same time. A lot of people who enjoyed the original FireRed spent hours and hours playing the game.

At the time, FireRed was the closest experience to what a fully realized Pokemon game should be. Unfortunately, there must come a time when players finally stop playing it and move to something new. They might even delete the FireRed save file.

4 Fire-Fighting, Fire-Fighting Everywhere

The newer generations of Pokemon games offer a lot of freedom, but one thing that has remained constant is the starting types. It can not be a coincidence that there are this many Pokemon who are technically Fire/Fighting.

Why aren’t other types there? Why does it always have to be bipedal creatures who are so similar? What is the deal with Fire/Fighting-type? How about something new?

3 Oh Well! Good Bye Charmander

While the idea behind the popular ice-bucket challenge was noble, this meme makes it hilarious. Take a challenge to invoke awareness regarding a terrible condition and mix it up with a Pokemon.

The result is bound to be amusing. Charmander is a cute Pokemon, and that is what makes this meme even funnier. Why would Charmander take the Ice Bucket Challenge? What is it supporting? Oh wait, it is dead.

2 Nintendo’s Employee Of The Day

Here’s what happens at the Game Freak developer meeting when they discuss the next Pokemon game. People gather, they talk, and then they get promoted.

How? It is simple, go ahead and suggest a starter type that everyone in the room likes; specifically, the Fire/Fighting. At least this is what people think happens because there’s too many fire starter Pokemon.

1 Roasting A Friend

It is just not nice to take advantage of good friends. Mostly, because Charmanders are really ethical Pokemon who fight against inequality. Pikachu chose a bad day to roast its marshmallows and he got roasted by Charmander for it.

That being said, this comic does bring some interesting ideas and questions to the table. Can Pikachu really modulate electricity through its butt? Why is Charmander using a laptop that isn’t charged? What happened to the third Pokemon and what was its name again?
