Pokétoon is an animated web series of shorts based on the Pokémon games. Unlike Pokémon's other animated series such as Pokémon Generations and Pokémon: Twilight Wings, Pokétoon is not an adaptation of any of the games; instead, it opts to tell original stories that focus more on the average resident of the Pokémon world.The series can be viewed here on the Japanese official YouTube channel.In 2022, it was announced that the shorts would finally be released in the West starting on June 17 on the Pokémon TV app and website and all 8 episodes would be released on the service weekly throughout Summer. They can be watched on the official English Pokémon YouTube channel here. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Pokétoon (Web Animation) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The fight between Nidorino and Gengar from the opening sequence of Pokémon Red and Blue is referenced during the ending of "A Budding Dream", complete with a new chiptune rendition of its music. It taking place in a forest further references the GBA remakes. "I've Become a Gengar" uses two different piano arrangements of Lavender Town's theme as background music. In the original games, Lavender Town is the only place to find wild Gastly and Haunter... which evolve into Gengar. This is not the first time a human was turned to a Gengar. Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team introduced us to Team Meanies' leader Gengar. During one of Hilary's unintended scares, the moonlight through a window causes her to resemble the sprite for unidentified ghosts in the original games. | |

Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress: Scraggy gets so frightened by Mimikyu, it runs through several train cars and off the back of the train. It doesn't fall until it slows down enough and realizes it's walking in midair. | |

Friendly Ghost | |
| Pokétoon (Web Animation) / int_5ac26edf | comment |
Friendly Ghost: The worst thing the Ghost Pokémon inhabiting the school do is play pranks on kids wandering about after hours; their ranks include species with lore that paints them as being malevolent towards humans, like Drifloon and Jellicent, but they're content with the pranks. They also happily welcome Hilary in as one of their own and praise her whenever she (accidentally) scares the kids. It's also implied Gengar orchestrated the events of the episode after the staircase so Hilary could become more confident. | |

Face of a Thug: Pancham wants to be a hero, and is worried that if it evolves into Pangoro, people will be scared of it. It wears an Everstone on a necklace to prevent this. It throws away the Everstone to evolve and gain enough strength to save Impidimp and the trapped miners, but they all recognize Pangoro as a hero anyway. | |

Idiot Hair | |
| Pokétoon (Web Animation) / int_7289a350 | comment |
Idiot Hair: Blossom has a curly hair that sticks up from the top of her head (which she gets from her father) and is shown to be very naive about catching and training Pokémon. She decides to go out on her own to find a Pokémon and subsequently wastes all the Poké Balls she bought save one blindly throwing them at wild Pokémon. | |

Twisted Ankle: An Impidimp that had been trapped in a mine runs out once Pancham clears away some of the rocks blocking the entrance, but trips and sprains its ankle when it sees a boulder falling from above. Although Pancham catches the boulder in time, Impidimp is left unable to get to safety on its own. | |

They also briefly become hearts when it spots the bag of Poké Beans near the end, only for them to quickly go back to normal when it turns out to be Mimikyu again. When it slams into a tree, the eye closer to the tree turns into a star. Momo, one of the kids from "I've Become a Gengar," has permanent starry eyes as part of her overall design. | |

Contrived Coincidence: In "The Pancham Who Wants to be a Hero", Pancham catches a boulder that would have crushed an Impidimp. However, Impidimp can't get out from under the boulder's shadow because of a sprained ankle, and Pancham can't hold up the boulder for much longer. Then a geyser erupts on the cliff above them and the water from it pours down. | |

Pokémon Speak | |
| Pokétoon (Web Animation) / int_e58e0124 | comment |
Pokémon Speak: The Mimikyu in "Scraggy and Mimikyu" makes squeaky "kyu" noises. The speech of the Pokémon in "A Budding Dream" follows similar logic to the anime; most of them say their own names, but Charizard, Nidoking, and Nidoqueen have growls that sound vaguely like their names. When Gengar speak around humans in "I've Become a Gengar", they're heard saying parts of their names. The rest of the short has Translation Convention in effect. "Jigglypuff's Song" has Jigglypuff singing the iconic Jigglypuff song from the anime. | |

A Minccino is seen using its broomlike tail to sweep stairs clean, which is in line with its natural behavior. A Spinarak, Ariados, and Joltik use String Shot to provide material for the grandmother's knitting. A Haxorus chops wood using its axelike tusks. | |
