A coworker sent this to me recently, and aside from the fact that I was proud of myself for being able to tell the difference, I thought it'd make a fun game here! The gist of the game is asking whether or not the word the poster uses is the name of a prescription medicine (brand names, generic names) or the name of a Pokémon species. They can be quite similar and hard to tell the difference.

To make this more fun, please try and only use your current knowledge of the series to answer the question! ^_^

That's a drug. It sounds like a few Pokemon off the top of my head, but none match with that.
