A Pokefan is a person who is not of the Pokemon Generation, but believes themselves to be. They believe, wrongly, that to play the Pokemon games, you must beat the elite four as fast as possible. WRONG. A Pokefan also believes that true members of the Pokemon Generation, are stupid and old. Also Wrong. The Pokemon Generation stopped adding new members in early '94. Sorry, but if you were born after this, your aren't a member of the Pokemon Generation. This doesn't mean you are a Pokefan, but don't kid yourself that your a member of the Generation.

If confronted, the Pokefan will most likely resort to calling you old and/or saying you suck a random pokemon from the original 151.

A pokefan can easily be recognized if they happen to say "So I herd you leik Mudkipz" and/or have this written somewhere on their body/clothes/bags.
Kid 1: Yea. I beat the Elite Four the same day that I started playing. I'm pretty good at playing the games.
Kid 2: No. No you aren't. You must be a Pokefan. Do you by any chance also "leik" Mudkipz, or have Pokeaids?
Kid 1: YOUR OLD!! GO SUCK A DITTO!
Kid 2: Hes a definite Pokefan

Pokéfan 

A pokéfan is a fan of the game series Pokemon.
Some Pokéfans are called "Genwunners" by fellow members of the fandom because of their love of the first generation games such as Red, Blue (originally known as Pokemon Red and Green in Japan) and Yellow.

The Pokefam is a group of people that originated on deviantART. It stands for "Pokemon Family".

It's a pretty well known group of people among the Tumblr Pokespe fanbase. They're a casual circle of friends and acquaintances that rampage around the Pokemon RP groups and Pokespe tag with frequent hilarity and skepticism over other posters in said tag.

They aren't as active as they were a year ago but one can remember their comedic routines that occurred every morning on the dashboard.
John: Oh man there's that group again. Making yet another revival by posting a ton of ooc comics of Pokespe characters...

Karen: Oh, you mean the Pokefam?

John: Yeah! Them! They're practically everywhere when they're all on and active!

Karen: Yeah... It's a shame they don't do stuff like this as much as they used to. I actually used to look forward to checking tumblr every morning when they were around.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
