The Pokeparents and Pokedads meme phenomenon highlights the generational bridge between the original 90s Pokemon fans and their children. As the first generation of players who started with Red and Blue versions became parents, they began sharing stories of passing down their love for the franchise. These memes typically revolve around the humor of 'teaching' kids how to play, the pain of seeing a child waste a Master Ball on a common Pokemon, or the wholesome realization that the hobby has come full circle. It is a staple of millennial parenting culture, blending deep-seated nostalgia with the chaotic reality of modern fatherhood and motherhood.
