General: A video game series by Nintendo and game freak originally on the game boy, it has gotten newer games on the GB color, advance, DS and 3ds, with remakes of red, green/blue, gold and silver. It puts the player in a world inhabited by humans and creatures known as Pokemon, which the player can catch, battle with other NPC/player trainers, and level up. As Pokemon level up, they become stronger and gain new abilities as well as evolve into a stronger version of that Pokemon species. There are currently (as of x and y) 718 different species of Pokemon, some rarer to find than others.
Plot: the Pokemon games start out with the player choosing their name and gender, and put into their hometown. (oddly, its always the only town in the entire region that doesn't have a Pokemon center or gym, but has the regional professor) They are then given a choice between three Pokemon, a fire, water, and grass type, the players rival takes the one that is stronger than the player's choice. The player is then set loose into the world (each game is set in a different region, kanto, johto, hoenn, sinnoh, unova and kalos) where they must challenge the eight gyms and disrupt the plans of an evil organization. They then challenge the elite four and the champion, if they are successful, the player wins the game and is free to do as they please from then on.
It also has an anime and a card game.

Pokémoning (also spelled "Pokemoning" without an accented e) is the act of dating multiple partners in order to collectively obtain all the desired traits that likely can't exist in a single woman or man. Named so because you "Gotta Catch 'Em All."
Woman 1: "Okay, there's my Sex Idiot, my Great Head of Hair, my Money Guy, my Dirty Hippie Hipster, my Guy To Piss Off My Parents/Black Guy, and then, there's my Old Fart."
Woman 2: "Hey, are you Pokémoning?"
Woman 1: "Yeah, but my Old Fart calls it 'Great-Escaping.' But I guess there's some advantages to having an aging Squirtle around. Like, he shows me how old people used to dance, for instance."
Woman 2: "Cool!"

1. A series of video games created by Satoshi Tajiri for the Nintendo Game Boy. Pokémon literally invented the turn-based R.P.G. genre, so if you play Final Fantasy or any other turn-based game, you might have Pokémon to thank for that.
Many consider it to be quite childish. Sure, the games and such are directed to a young demographic, but many teenagers and adults play it as well. There's even an entire Cheezburger website dedicated to Pokemon-themed image memes and videos!
2. The creatures in the Pokémon games themselves. Notable examples include Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Squirtle.
The word is often misspelled "Pokemon", without the accent on the E. It's often spelt like this because most North American keyboards do not have an "é" key, just an "e".
