Welcome to CoolBird's Archive of PokéMon facts you may and may not know! Many of these facts surprised me, and probably will do the same to you!
Did you know...
That the supposed "donuts" in the PokeMon T.V. show are actually riceballs? People in Japan eat rice -- and lots of it, too.

Did you know...

Did you know...
Contrary to the beleif of "PokeMon" being a japanese word, it's not. The word is actually an amalgram of the two English words: "Pocket Monster". The name was changed because people felt the name was too close to an existing property called "Monster in your Pocket".
Did you know...

Did you know...
That even though on Red/Blue versions, even though Pokémon don't show what genders they are, that you can still tell wether a Pokémon is a male or female? First you must catch a Pokémon. If the Pokemon has a high attack rating, it's a male, but if it's defense is high, it's a female! Pokemon such as the ledgendary birds, Mewtwo, or mew, don't have genders.
Did you know...
That the PokéMon TCG for game boy has a typo? The card "Ninetales" is spelled "Ninetails", which is incorrect!
Once I get more weird stuff, i'll post it up here, but this is it for now.
