A phrase invented to separate Pokemon, the fun old Game Boy RPG from the childhood of today's 20-year-olds, from all of the stupid spin-off crap that the game spawned. It is assumed that when one refers to Pokemon, they mean the nostalgia-inducing black-and-white adventure, and when one refers to poke-a-man, they either mean the cartoon show, the card game, or a homosexual act.
"Where you going, home to poke a man?"

"No, I thought I'd play some Pokemon."

What dads and moms called Pokemon in the 1990's.

Pronounced: Poke Man, not Pokee Man
Dad: Son, why are you always playing with those damn Poke-Man cards. In my day we played with sports cards.
Son: Dad you cant play with sports cards. They were purely collectibles and had no game associated with them.
Dad: Oh so football isnt a game? Youre 10, go get a job you little bastard. I'm not even your real father. Bet you wouldn't have guessed that.
