Pok�mon of the Day
Don't tease the weasel.
March 27, 2000
Mondays are special days indeed for Pok�men and women -- every Monday, IGNpocket will be sneaking into this country and (onto our web site) one of the brand new Pok�mons from the Japanese Silver and Gold Pok�mon games. You won't be able to catch these newest Pok�critters until the games' release in September, 2000, so this is your only chance to get your Pok�dose of Pok�mania for almost a year. There are 100 new Pok�mons total, so keep coming back to IGNpocket to catch them all!
And if you're looking to be the Ultimate Pok�mon Collector, check into the all-new Pok�Contest once you learn all about this Pok�mon -- the prize pack is the most massive Pok�mon give-away yet! Head on over to our Contest page where you must answer one question about this Pok�mon. Get the answer right, and you'll be entered to win the Pok�mon prize of that day. But to win, you'll have to register � it's a painless process, and well worth the three minutes of your time.
Now, on to today's Pok�mon of the Day:

Don't tease the weasel.
Hey yo, what's up, eh? It's the weasel, munching on the grub, buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-dy! So I was steppin' to this Lisa, right, and she's lookin' fine mama. OWWWWWWW! So you know what I do, bro? I get all up to that, and I'm like, "What's up, buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-dy! ", and she's like "..." And I don't speak Nuh, so I'm like, "So what's the time? What's your time? Why don't you give me some time?" And she's like "..."
That bummed me out, dudes. But I'm still all up in that, so I go, "Yo baby, wanna see my watch?" And I don't even wait for an answer, I just whip my pants down. But, dude, check it -- I was all set with my punchline / pickup-line, you know, the hands and wrist and face part, right? But then she just goes mental, buddy. Yelling and screaming in some yada-yada-yada language. And that's when I realized that my Lisa was a Lisa Oh, buddy -- not a word of English, buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-dy!
OK, so Bakufuun isn't really a weasel. It's really a volcano mouse with a fire collar. But it looks like a weasel, and that's plenty to go on here. Breathe caka, you crazy Pok�maniacs.
NOTE: The name of this Pok�mon will likely change when the Silver and Gold Pok�mon Game Boy Color games are translated and brought over. Names of Pok�mons are plays on words (both in Japan and the US), so expect the names to be witty and charismatic translations of the Japanese names.
Now that you've gotten your Pok�lesson and you are a Pok�scholar, take this info over to our Pok�mon Dream Contest and enter yourself for a chance to win some great Pok�prizes. If you are into Pok�mon - I mean really into Pok�mon - and you have been trying desperately to catch them all, this is your chance. Get the answer right, and you may win yourself the Pok�mon Dream Pack which includes: a Game Boy Color, a Game Boy Color Protector, a copy of each of these Pok�mon Classics: Pok�mon Yellow, Red, and Blue, a Limited Edition Pok�mon Stadium Bundle which includes an N64 control deck, Pok�mon Stadium Game Pak, gray controller, atomic purple controller, N64 Transfer Pak (which will transfer Pok�mon between Pok�mon Stadium and Pok�mon Red, Blue or Yellow), AC adapter, AV cable, Battle Guide, Pok�mon poster and a Pok�mon Wizards of the Coast trading card. Whew! If you need more Pok�mon after all that, something's wrong with your Pok�medulla. This is a super Pok�freak-out! So take the Pok�challenge, and put some Pok� in your pocket!
And remember, contests are only open to registered users on IGN.com. If you are not registered on IGN.com, take two minutes and sign up here. Super easy, super free, super painless, superkewl... And now I'm super embarrassed that I just said that.
