List of Pokémon jokes

There are various Pokémon jokes that have been made throughout the challenge. These jokes made their debut in Round 2, introduced by TheRealXboxNerd, but since then other Poopers have featured references to the franchise, including Jordangaming101, Oface Studios, NG and Pokehog. 
== Hoothoot ==
Hoothoot was the first Pokémon to feature in the 20 Minute YTP Challenges. The joke was made by TheRealXboxNerd, included in the first episode Pooped in Round 2 - the Series 5 story "Haunted Henry." Hoothoot startles Henry whilst he is waiting in a station at night, before Gordon thunders by and has an off-screen station joke. 
Quote: "Suddenly, Hoothoot hooted!"
This joke is actually an updated version of one used in TheRealXboxNerd's full-length 'Haunted Henry' YTP: 'Henry is Scared Shitless by Colonel Gaddafi', uploaded exactly six years before this Round. The updated version includes a PNG of Hoothoot, as well as including the Pokémon's in-game cry.
== Slaking ==
Slaking would appear in the same Round, with the joke in which it features also done by TheRealXboxNerd. This joke was used in the second episode Pooped in Round 2 - the Series 4 story "Fish". Slaking ends up falling onto Duck's buffers instead of the brake van's tail lamp, causing Duck to brutally crash into the trucks full of fish. 
Quote: "Duck felt Slaking on his buffers."
Slaking reappeared in Round 37 during Jordangaming101's edit of the Bertha episode 'The Best Machine Competition'. The Pooper parodied the working song which appeared in the episode.
Quote: "No, we don't believe in Slaking!"
==Doduo==
Doduo appeared in Round 5, and was the first Pokémon joke done by NG. This was also the first case of where the joke echoed a random encounter seen in the Pokémon games - the Pokémon simply appearing on screen with the sentence mixing providing its name. In Doduo's case, this was done in the first episode Pooped in Round 5 - that being the Series 7 episode 'Emily's New Coaches'. Doduo appeared during Thomas' introduction to the new engine Emily. 
Quote: "Doduo!"
==Who's That Pokémon?!==
Appearing in Round 9, this joke by TheRealXboxNerd is unlike the others, as it does not feature an individual species of Pokémon. Instead, the joke involves the 'Who's That Pokémon?!' segment from the TV series, where a silhouette of a Pokémon is shown before the advertisement break asking the segment's titular question. Once the adverts were over, the question would be answered and the identity of the Pokémon revealed. The joke, appearing in the second episode Pooped in Round 9 - Series 3's 'Gordon and the Famous Visitor' - featured a sentence-mixed version of 'Who's That Pokémon?!' but with the silhouette of the City of Truro. 
Quote: "Who's That Pokémon?! It's a celebrity!"
==Mr. Men/Little Miss PokéRap==
Featuring in Round 11, this joke by NG, appearing in the second episode Pooped in this round - the Little Miss story 'Little Miss Trouble' - is also dissimilar from the usual Pokémon jokes. In this case, the PokéRap - another feature from the Pokémon TV series where the original 150 Pokémon were recited in a rap song - was used atop the closing credits of the Mr. Men/Little Miss show, with the various Mr. Men and Little Misses acting as substitutes for the Pokémon featuring in the first verse of the rap. 
Quote: "Electrode, Diglett, Nidoran, Mankey. Venusaur, Rattata, Fearow, Pidgey! Seaking, Jolteon, Dragonite, Gastly. Ponyta, Vaporeon, Poliwrath, Butterfree!"
==Abra + Kadabra==
Round 13 saw the first case of two Pokémon from the same evolutionary line appear together in a joke. Featuring in TheRealXboxNerd's edit for the first episode in this round, both Abra and Kadabra appeared on command as Spud the Scarecrow attempted to convince Travis the Tractor that he could perform magic tricks. In reality, he was simply launched in Scoop's bucket before landing on the ground and dying. 
Quote: "Watch this then! Abra, Kadabra!"
==Mew==
NG's joke in the second half of Round 14 was the first time that a mythical Pokémon had featured in the Challenges. In this case, Ted Glen's suit of armour which had originally been 'just like new', was now just like the New Species Pokémon. 
Quote: "Just like Mew!"
==Walrein==
Appearing in Round 15, TheRealXboxNerd featured a Walrein in his edit for the second episode in this round - Pingu's Dream. In this episode, the infamous creepy walrus made its appearance, scaring both Pingu and the viewers. TheRealXboxNerd substituted this nightmare-inducing walrus with a giant Walrein emerging from behind an ice shelf accompanied by an amplified version of its in-game cry, startling the show's titular penguin. 
==Wooloo==
Featured in Round 16 by NG, Wooloo was shown as one of Old Idwell the Shepherd's flock of sheep. It was a quick fire joke, which showed Idwell sitting down on top of the Wooloo. 
Quote: "Sitting on a sheep."
==Dewott==
Round 19 saw the first use of a starter Pokémon in the Challenge. Made by NG in the Pooping of the second episode in this round - the Paddington story 'A Picnic on the River' - Dewott appeared briefly on-screen just as Paddington and the Brown Family were about to go punting along the river. 
Quote: "Dewott!"
==Tentacruel==
TheRealXboxNerd returned to making Pokémon jokes in Round 20, where he featured the giant Tentacruel from the TV series episode 'Tentacool & Tentacruel' in his Challenge Poop of Captain Pugwash. Having been shipwrecked in the night due to a storm, the captain sees the enormous Tentacruel ravaging a building site in the distance. 
Quote: "Jumping jellyfish!"
==Meowth==
Round 23 saw Meowth briefly feature in TheRealXboxNerd's Challenge Poop for the Thomas & Friends Series 2 story 'Thomas, Percy and the Coal', where Thomas was being buried under the coal. Instead of calling for someone to 'Get me out!', he simply called out the name of the Scratch Cat Pokémon. 
Quote: "Meowth!"
==Cinderace==
After a five-round hiatus, NG returned to making Pokémon jokes in his edit of 'Thomas, Percy and the Dragon' in Round 24. Sentence-mixing Cinderace's name was a natural fit for Thomas' cry of 'Cinders and ashes!' upon seeing the Chinese dragon at the harbour. At present, Cinderace is the most recently introduced Pokémon to feature in the 20 Minute YTP Challenge. 
Quote: "Cinderace!"
==Misty==
Round 25 saw the first case of someone other than TheRealXboxNerd or NG making a Pokémon joke - in this case, Oface Studios got in on the act during his edit of 'The Fogman'. Her first use of a Pokémon reference was also unique as it was the first time a human character from Pokémon appeared in the Challenge: that being Misty. As a bonus, she is shown carrying Togepi when she appears. 
Quote: "Thomas, Annie and Clarabel love fucking Misty."
Misty reappeared in Round 43 during Oface Studios' edit of the Series 5 episode, 'Duncan Gets Spooked.' As Rusty tells the tale of the little engine who fell from the Old Iron Bridge, a distorted transparent Misty winds her way up the screen, calling out Oface's 'bad sense of humour' for making the joke.
Quote: "It was a Misty, moonlit night." "Someone has a bad sense of humour!"
==Inkay==
Inkay briefly appeared in TheRealXboxNerd's edit of the same episode, with the sentence mixing derived from the line 'And before he could even think of anything else'. 
Quote: "Inkay!"
==Axew==
This same episode also saw NG make a Pokémon joke, introducing an Axew right at the beginning of his edit. This meant that Round 25 saw the first case of multiple different Poopers making Pokémon jokes out of the same episode - all of them different from one another. 
Quote: "That made my Axew tingle!"
==Steenee==
In Round 26, TheRealXboxNerd featured a Steenee in his edit of the Thomas & Friends Series 3 episode 'Escape!'. Having heard its in-game cry at the scrapyards, Douglas notices the Steenee hidden away in a siding in place of Oliver's wheeshing. 
Quote: "That sounds like a Steenee!"
==Ducklett==
Round 27 saw another new Pooper use a Pokémon joke in one of their edits. In this case, that Pooper was Pokehog, who had made his 20 Minute YTP Challenge debut in the round before. For his first Pokémon joke, Pokehog replaced Duck's face and name during his introduction in 'Duck Takes Charge' with that of the Gen V Pokémon Ducklett. 
Quote: "What's your name?" Asked the Fat Controller. "Montague, sir, but I'm usually called Ducklett!"
==Gogoat==
Pokehog wasn't finished with Ducklett in Round 27, however. For the second episode in this round - the Thomas & Friends Series 1 story 'Edward, Gordon and Henry' - he featured a Gogoat in his edit, where it ate The Fat Controller's hat after it was blown off by the wind when he leaned out of the carriage window. 
Quote: "The Fat Controller leaned out of the window to wave at Edward and Henry, but the train was going so fast that his hat blew off into a field where Gogoat ate it for tea!"
Gogoat reappeared in the challenge when Jordangaming101 edited the Thomas & Friends Series 2 episode 'Ghost Train'. At the end of his entry, we briefly saw the Gen VI Grass type appear on-screen with Thomas' O face edited onto its body.
Quote: "Anyone would think", chuckled Toby, "that our Thomas had become a Gogoat!" "Help!"
==Klang==
Klang was the only Pokémon to appear in Round 29 - the audiobook round. Appearing in TheRealXboxNerd's entry, an edit of Willie Rushton's narration of the story 'Cows', this Gen V Steel type required perhaps the least amount of sentence mixing of any Pokémon joke. 
Klang was also the first Pokémon to appear in more than one round, returning in TheRealXboxNerd's entry for the first half of Round 30 - the Thomas & Friends Series 2 story 'Cows': ironically the same story in which Klang had previously appeared. 
Quote: "Klang!" / "Edward puffed and Klang, the trucks rattled and screamed!"
==Pikachu==
TheRealXboxNerd's 'Cows' YTP also saw the first instance of more than one Pokémon joke being used in a single entry. At the very end of his entry, the franchise's mascot Pikachu briefly appears as the closing joke for the entry. 
Quote: "Gordon felt somehow that Edward pooped only too well... Pikachu!"
==Reshiram==
Pokehog also made a Pokémon joke in Round 30, but this time for the second episode Pooped in that round - the Series 5 story 'Baa!'. In his entry, he replaced the ram on the line with that of the Pokémon Black box legendary Reshiram. 
Quote: "Why bless me, it's a Reshiram!"
==Shuckle==
When the Challenge returned for Round 31, we saw the first instance of two different Poopers using the same Pokémon for a joke in the same episode. When editing the ChuckleVision episode 'Let's Get Quizzical', both NG and Pokehog used Shuckle in jokes involving the show's opening credits. Pokehog also incorporated the Marvel Cinematic Universe character Vision in his joke. 
Quote: "ShuckleVision"
==Eiscue==
TheRealXboxNerd made the only Pokémon joke to feature in Round 32 - specifically in the edit for the Captain Pugwash episode 'Diamonds on Ice'. Within the episode, Tom the cabin boy substitutes the diamonds in a treasure chest for lumps of ice, which is then stolen by Cut-Throat Jake and his crew. However, in TRXN's edit, the box is filled with Eiscue - the Gen VIII penguin with an oversized ice cube head. 
Quote: "You see, I filled the box with lumps of Eiscue!"
==Bee Land==
Oface Studios made the only Pokémon reference in Round 33, during the second episode Pooped in that Round: 'Little Miss Sunshine'. After being asked where she had been by Mr. Happy, Little Miss Sunshine responds by saying 'Bee Land', with two Beedrill appearing on-screen either side of her. 
Quote: "Hello! Where have you been?" "Bee Land!"
==Zubat==
Just one Pokémon reference was made in Round 34, appearing NG's edit for the Paddington Bear episode 'An Outing in the Park'. A very brief reference, a Zubat appeared on-screen when Paddington, the Brown children and Mr. Gruber visited a Schubert concert performance. 
Quote: "Zubat!"
==Pidgey==
Round 35 saw a new Pooper taking on a Pokémon joke. This time, it was Jordangaming101 during his edit of the Bob the Builder episode 'Runaway Roley'. In this joke, Pidgey replaced Pilchard, whom Wendy greets. Pidgey then proceeds to tell Wendy to shut up, causing her to pull out an AK-47 in a fit of rage. 
Quote: "Hello, Pidgey!"
==Nidoking==
Round 37 saw NG make a joke in the Bertha episode 'The Best Machine Competition' that was similar to that which Jordangaming101 made - both parodying the working song. However, instead of using Slaking to make the joke, NG sentence-mixed the Gen I Poison/Ground type Nidoking into the song. 
Quote: "No, we don't believe in Nidoking!"
==Water Gun==
Pokehog made the only Pokémon joke in Round 38, but it was an innovative one - the first time that the Challenge saw a joke made regarding a Pokémon move. In the Sooty & Co. episode 'Moving In', Scampi fires a water pistol at Matthew's face, with Pokehog's joke adding the in-game text to the clip alongside the Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald battle music. 
Quote: "WATER GUN! It's super effective!"
==Milcery==
The return of Thomas the Tank Engine as a source in Round 41 also saw NG's return to Pokémon jokes. As part of his edit of the Series 2 episode 'Percy's Predicament', he included the Gen VIII Fairy type Milcery in his entry - a nine round hiatus for Galar Pokémon, with the last one being Eiscue during TheRealXboxNerd's Captain Pugwash entry in Round 32. Toby explains that he will take the Milcery instead of the milk wagon. 
Quote: "Tell you what: I'll take the Milcery, you fuck my trucks!"
==Servine==
Round 41 also saw a Pokémon joke feature during the edits of the Series 5 story 'A Better View for Gordon' - this time coming from Jordangaming101. In the entry, Gordon is replaced by the Gen V mid-stage Grass starter Servine whilst bragging about how amazing he is. 
Quote: "I am the finest Servine on the Island of Sodor!"
==Muk==
Round 42 of the Challenge saw a new Pooper use a Pokémon joke - The TSMU Fan. During his edit of the Series 6 episode 'Edward the Very Useful Engine', he sentence-mixed the Gen I Poison type Muk into his entry, implying that Duck had somehow turned into Muk on Gordon's Hill. 
Quote: "Duck was Muk!"
==Sinistea==
Round 42 also saw Pokehog make a Pokémon joke with the same episode. However, while TSMU referenced a Pokémon from the oldest Generation, Pokehog referenced one from the newest - the Ghost type Sinistea. Much like Duck was a Muk in TSMU's entry, Edward is a Sinistea in Pokehog's. 
Quote: "Edward is a Sinistea!"
==Lavender Town Music==
The Halloween Round - Round 43's Pokémon jokes opened in a unique way with Pokehog's edit of the Thomas & Friends Series 2 story 'Ghost Train', as he pitch-shifted the episode's introductory music to mimic that of the eerie Lavender Town theme music from the game series. 
==Gastly==
NG's opening Halloween round edit also broke the mould with Pokémon jokes, as it referenced another series on YouTube. At the beginning of his 'Ghost Train' entry, a Gastly appears and jump-scares the viewer, with the clip coming from Shippiddge's series Starter Squad - more specifically, episode 8 entitled 'Ooo Look At Me I'm A Big Scary Ghost'.
Quote: "Bluh!"
== Croagunk ==
Round 43 of the Challenge saw a new Pooper take on a Pokémon joke - Jacob Hayes. During his edit of the Series 2 episode, 'Ghost Train,' he sentence mixed the Gen IV Poison/Fighting type Croagunk into his entry, implying that Percy was passing by it on his way home from the harbour.
Quote: "Croagunk, we shan't be long now."
== Golem ==
Round 43 also saw another instance of more than one Pokémon joke in a single entry: at the very end of Jacob Hayes' 'Ghost Train' entry. As the closing joke, he used the Gen I Rock/Ground type Golem in his entry, implying that Thomas had seen it and had been frightened by it.
Quote: "Anyone would think that our Thomas had just seen a Golem."
==Leafeon==
The TSMU Fan's only Pokémon joke in Round 43 was the first to come from the second episode edited during that round - the Series 5 episode 'Duncan Gets Spooked'. At the start of the entry, Gen IV's Leafeon is sentence mixed into the story.
Quote: "The little engines were busy clearing their railway of Leafeon."
==Lunala==
Pokehog continued to make Pokémon jokes when it came to the second episode of Round 43. Adding to the workmen's lore about the full Moon, his entry explains that it is in fact a Pokémon - the legendary Lunala. The Psychic/Ghost type proceeds to use its signature move - Moongeist Beam - on a nearby screaming James, who is instantly disintegrated by the attack.
Quote: "But many a workman will tell you that the Moon is a Pokémon."
==Raboot==
Immediately following the joke about Lunala, Pokehog referenced the middle stage Fire starter from Gen VIII - Raboot - as Duncan crossed the Old Iron Bridge, dispelling any theories about it being possessed by ghosts.
Quote: "Haunted bridge... Pah!" Snorted Duncan. "It's as tame as a pet Raboot!"
==Mareep==
Pokehog continued his streak of Pokémon jokes into Round 44, making the only Pokémon joke of that round. During his edit of the Series 5 episode 'Thomas and the Rumours', he replaced the sheep in a field along Percy's branch line with the Gen II Electric type Mareep.
Quote: "Percy stopped by a signal on his branch line near a field where Mareep were grazing."
==Sentret==
The TSMU Fan made the first Pokémon joke to appear in Round 45. During his edit of 'Break Van', he included Gen II's Sentret, overlaying it on top of the Spiteful Brake Van during his heated exchange with Donald at the start of the episode.
Quote: "You can't!" Said the van, "I'm a Sentret!"
==Scottish Pokémon Trainers==
Round 45 also saw a Pokémon joke in its second episode - the Series 6 story 'Twin Trouble'. Pokehog opened the Pooping of this episode by providing Donald and Douglas with the haircuts of the player's characters in the Gen VIII games - referencing the region's British basis and the soundtrack's Scottish influence.
Quote: "Donald and Douglas are Scottish Pokémon trainers."
==Hitmontop==
Round 46's opening episode - the Series 1 story 'Tenders and Turntables' - saw Pokehog extend his run of jokes into a fifth consecutive round. In this case, James' unfortunate experience on the turntable is made to mimic the Gen II Fighting type Hitmontop - rotating on its head in order to attack.
Quote: "James turned much too easily. The wind puffed him round like a Hitmontop."
==Confusion==
Much like Pokehog's Water Gun joke in Round 38, the only Pokémon joke to feature in the second half of Round 46 was one about a move. NG parodied The Fat Controller's classic 'confusion and delay' phrase in the Series 3 episode 'No Joke for James' by including the battle animation and music from the Gen III games.
Quote: "You have caused confusion!"
