After every single Nintendo Direct or Pokemon Direct, it seems that fans immediately head to Twitter to share the funniest memes they can come up with.
After the Pokemon-focused Direct this morning, of course, we came across dozens upon dozens of memes that we just had to compile into this article.
So, since we’re all still hyped after that Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield presentation, let’s continue the excitement by having a laugh or two.
I don’t think a piece of toast would be as useful as an actual shield, but because of pure cuteness, I would have to go with the bread dog:

Yeah, I wouldn’t attend any stadium that has huge fire-breathing Pokemon:
