Cryaotic goes crazy after Pokemon NPCs give him \u2018trip-inducing shrooms\u2019 The Pokemon games have always been rated E for everyone \u2013 but as Twitch streamer Cryaotic discovered, that doesn\u2019t mean the dialogue can\u2019t be cheeky or suggestive for older audiences, too. While playing Pokemon Sword and Shield, the Twitch star spoke to a non-playable character (NPC) who gave him a bag of mixed mushrooms. While it\u2019s pretty standard for random characters in RPGs to give the player items after talking to them, the follow-up dialogue was very suspicious. Cryaotic read Rod\u2019s text and couldn\u2019t help but chuckle the word \u201cshrooms\u201d in response to how over-the-top the play on words was. \u201cI don\u2019t plan on being tripped up on my journey, so better you take it than me,\u201d the character said, prompting a big laugh from the Pokemon trainer. The pun \u2018tripping\u2019 was likely related to psychedelic or \u2018magic\u2019 mushrooms, which can cause visual and auditory hallucinations for those who imbibe them. For his part, Cryaotic couldn\u2019t believe this bit of dialogue was actually included in the game. \u201cWhat the f*ck?!\u201d he shouted. \u201cThat wasn\u2019t even subtle,\u201d he continued, still flabbergasted at the NPC\u2019s remark. As it turned out, though, yet another nearby character had a drug-related joke to make. The popular streamer approached a nearby character on a bike who then gave him even more mushrooms. This time, the trainer joked that they shouldn\u2019t have had the mushrooms on their person. \u201cI don\u2019t know how this ended up in my pocket\u2026 so here \u2013 why don\u2019t you take it!\u201d the biker, named Yuuko, said. \u201cThe question is\u2026 how did it get in my pocket?\u201d While neither NPC specified that he items were drugs, it was quite clear the localization team was having some fun and while still managing to keep things PG \u2013 certainly a nice touch for anyone who can understand the joke. In Pokemon Sword and Shield, mushrooms are used for cooking new foods that can be fed to your team to replenish health, gain EXP and other such benefits. The original Pokemon games were released all the way back in 1996 in Japan and 1998 in the United States. Fans of the series who started with the first games when they came out are now in their adult years. It\u2019ll be fun to see what other comedic dialogue intended for older audiences is in the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
