"The chest contained Black Hole" - Final Fantasy 3

"[Player Name] found a Honey" - Pokemon Diamond/Pearl


Make me laugh, really hard. Think of any other funny item names or lines in games and post them here.

It's not the names of the items you should be judging. It's the laziness of the game's developers, or their bad grammar.

A black hole isn't an odd name. You know, there are these cosmological structures out in space called "Black Holes". They're like whirlpools in space that have a gravitational pull so strong that if anything passes it's border (called the "Event Horizon") nothing can escape it pull. The black hole grabs any object that passes it's event horizon and pulls it towards it's center, where it crushes it down to a singularity so small that it's practically invisible. it's a real thing, so it's not an odd name.

And Honey in the Pokemon games, that's not strange at all. The only thing strange about it is they used "a" instead of "some".

if we're going to pick on the name of any item in the Pokemon franchise, it should really be Great Balls. that's just my opinion, though.

Hey, want some of my Great Balls? Fresh from the store.

The best way incite awkward lines would be to nickname one of your Pokemon an obscene name, and be creative with the possibilities. For instance, a friend of mine named his Shieldon, 'HARDON'.

"HARDON, go get'em!"
"HARDON used HARDEN!"
"HARDON used DISCHARGE"
Day Care Lady: "It'll cost you 1200 PokeDollars to get your HARDON back."

I'm sure that nearly every Topian is familiar with HARDON jokes, at this point.
