Every Single Gen 1 Pokémon and What They Probably Taste Like

#91 — Cloyster

I’m not gonna say it, and we’ve all heard the jokes before. I mean… just look at Cloyster. It tastes like a trip downtown, that’s all I’m gonna say.

#92 — Gastly

Gastly tastes like carbon monoxide. When’s the last time you had that detector checked, by the way?

#93 — Haunter

Haunter tastes like licking the inside of a rubber Halloween mask. When you’re wearing the thing all night, it’s hard to resist the temptation to lick every once in a while, out of some weird curiosity.

#94 — Gengar

Gengar tastes like a raw pumpkin. Scoop that goop out and chow down, that’s the spooky essence of Gengar right there.

#95 — Onix

Onix tastes like chocolate truffles. The rock coating is just the candy wrapper nobody peeled off! A treasured treat if ever there was one. 

#96 — Drowzee

Drowzee tastes like Nyquil. It’ll clear you of any cold or flu-like symptoms, but expect to be knocked out within a couple hours.

#97 — Hypno

Hypno tastes like Xanax. Expect to feel very chill and relaxed, but do keep in mind that Hypno can be incredibly habit-forming if used irresponsibly.

#98 — Krabby

What do you want me to say here? Krabby tastes like ‘crab’? Fine, that’s exactly what they taste like. I don’t think the Pokémon world has crabs, or any kind of regular animals really. You can’t just have a dog, for example– it has to be a dog that’s constantly on fire and shoots flames out of its butt or something. So it stands to reason that instead of normal crabs, they have a lot of Krabbys, and eat them en masse.

#99 — Kingler

Yes, Kingler also tastes like crab. Again, I don’t feel bad about being lazy with this one. The design is literally just ‘a bigger crab’ so that’s on them, not me.

#100 — Voltorb

Crack Voltorb open and you’ll be surprised what’s inside– a chocolate candy and a fun toy! Voltorb is basically a Kinder Egg, and thus has been banned in at least 5 different game regions due to being classified as a potential choking hazard.

#101 — Electrode

Electrode tastes like Black Rifle Coffee, that weird conservative coffee brand. I won’t judge you for tasting Electrode, but do keep in mind who you’re supporting when you do.

#102 — Exeggcute

Hard boiled eggs that are just a little bit expired. Probably why they look all pissed off and stuff.

#103 — Exeggutor

Coconut cream pie. Exeggutor’s hard skin and three coconut heads paired together make for a deliciously creamy dessert.

#104 — Cubone

Loss. Tasting a Cubone will only bring to mind the sorrowful feeling of loss, and what it’s like to lose a loved one or something very important to you.

#105 — Marowak

Acceptance. Tasting a Marowak will bring about feelings of resilience, and being able to overcome past traumas to move on with your life.

#106 — Hitmonlee

A roundhouse kick straight to the dome!

#107 — Hitmonchan

A knuckle sandwich, right in the kisser!

#108 — Lickitung

If anything, Lickitung would taste you if you ever tried to eat it. Better clean yourself up first unless you wanna end up on this list.

#109 — Koffing

Koffing tastes like being outside in New York.

#110 — Weezing

Weezing tastes like being outside in Los Angeles.

#111 — Rhyhorn

A leather car seat. Rhyhorn gets super hot in the summer, so expect to have to peel yourself off, too.

#112 — Rhydon

Rhydon tastes like an old junkyard tire. Incredibly resilient, and tough as nails. Actually, it might have a nail stuck in it, be careful about that.

#113 — Chansey

Chansey tastes like hospital food, served on a plastic tray alongside bad news.

#114 — Tangela

Wet shoelaces. They’re damn near impossible to untie when they get like this, so you might as well start chewing your way through. That’s Tangela for ya.

#115 — Kangaskhan

Kangaskhan tastes like stability. You can really taste the family values when chomping down on Kangaskhan and its kin.

#116 — Horsea

Horsea tastes like microplastics. Most water-type Pokémon that reside in ocean-regions probably carry trace amounts of the stuff, but what can you do about it at this point, really?

#117 — Seadra

Seadra tastes like canned tuna. They say on the can that it’s supposed to be Seadra-free but there’s no way that’s actually true.

#118 — Goldeen

Your standard freshwater fish. I honestly don’t know if “fish” even exist in the Pokémon world, or regular animals of any kind for that matter, but I have to imagine people gobble these things up like crazy.

#119 — Seaking

Your standard saltwater fish. Again, do “fish” exist in the Pokémon world? It’s possible that most of the people in the Pokémon world live as vegetarians, but a select few probably do eat Pokémon, and that’s never not a weird thing to think about.

#120 — Staryu

Staryu tastes like sucking on a cherry Ring Pop. Part candy, mostly plastic.
