Unfortunately, I haven't played much of the classic games like the ones these characters are allegedly from, I usually play indie games. So, pretty much all of these went over my head until I got to the Halo one. I immediately knew this was lying because I know that quote is from Duke Nukem (I'm not implying I've played Duke Nukem, though, I've just heard of that quote).

Although, even though I've played pokemon before (like, once, years ago, but still), the fucking "Ash Ketchum is the hero from the Pokemon games" went over my head, and I feel embarassed for not realizing it's bullshit.

Fun fact: The quote from Duke Nukem is originally from a movie called They Live.

Ash is exclusive to the anime, but was ported over to the games later on as a minor character we hear from but don't see (His Greinja, Charizard, and Pikachu are event pokemon)

The character in the game is called Red

The sprite is Blue (the character Gary is based on)
