Pokemon Masters EX

I’m Max I’m Max baby call me Max.

A while back, Nintendo rebranded their mobile game, Pokémon Masters as Pokémon Masters EX. And with it came the hashtag, #PokemonMastersEX.

📣 App Update Notice!

A new Pokémon Masters update is available to download.

With this update, the title of the app has changed to Pokémon Masters EX.

There’s just one problem with that hashtag:

It also works in lower case.

Thus, the the #pokemonmastersex hashtag was born. And with it came the expected torrent of mockery, memes, and Pokémon-related smut. Why?

Because the internet is horny.

The importance of capitalization. #pokemonmastersex pic.twitter.com/t0JgLYRT3X
