Pokethulhu logo.jpg
Welcome to the Pokéthulhu world!
Pokéthulhu is a comedic/horror role-playing rule set and campaign setting. Pokéthulhu or more properly, the Pokéthulhu Adventure Game, is a parody of both the Pokémon Junior Adventure Game published by Wizards of the Coast, and of the Call of Cthulhu (role-playing game)|Call of Cthulhu role-playing game published by Chaosium.

The game is written and designed by S. John Ross and currently published (in its 3rd Edition) as a free game available from Cumberland Games and Diversions. The third edition includes some substantial additions to the game, including a large collection of fan-designed creatures, and an expanded card-based game system dependent on the ability of players to cite obscure trivia about a television show that doesn't actually exist. A small number of fan-authored websites also exist to support the game.

Pikathulhu, the familiar "mascot" of the Pokéthulhu Adventure Game whown here with the motto that drives the sanity from fellow cultists one and all.



The two prior editions were published by Squishy Brain Games (in 2000) and by Dork Storm Publishing (in 2002). Each edition has featured illustrations by John Kovalic and additional contributions by Philip J. Reed.


THE POKENOMICON=

  • POKENOMICON - Official: herein lie the 'thulhu that have been catelogued by the Great Old Cultists, officially recognized in Pokéthulhupublications or offical websites.
  • POKENOMICON - UN-Official: herein lie the 'thulhu that have been catelogued by non-affiliated Cultists, created by funs of the game.


POKETHULHU TELEVISION SERIES EPISODE GUIDE

This is a list of episodes of the fictional Pokéthulhu cartoon program. The names and numbers of all episodes have been pulled directly from the descriptions of the Pokéthulhu. There have been a total of four official seasons of the program, although the rumors of fan created fifth and potentially sixth seasons abound. Each season consisted of one hundred episodes, each roughly 10 minutes in length. When aired, however, three to five episodes were usually condensed into a single show. The reason for this unusual episode configuration has never been revealed.
