While people all over the world love Pokemon, for some fans, it's helped to bring them together with their significant others.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Player Spent 4 Years and 400 Hours in the Game Before Leaving the Tutorial
A dedicated Pokemon Brilliant Diamond player finally begins their journey after spending over four years in the game’s opening section.
On Reddit, a Pokemon fan named Victoria shared the custom Pokemon TCG card that she and her fiance Kevin had made for their wedding. The custom card features the newlywed couple drawn in a Pokemon-like style, while Psyduck and Slowpoke are also featured, as they're the couple's favorite Pokemon. While simply leaving it at that would be enough for most fans, the card goes a bit further with its clever and cute details. The ability of the card is "I choose you!" Which "grants everyone love and happiness" forever. The attack "Power of Love" strengthens the player's Pokemon, allowing them to essentially end any battle by releasing a wave of enchantment. The HP of the card is 525, a reference to the couple's wedding date, while a couple of amusing nods were also included, with the retreat cost being a whopping four energy and the weakness being Grass, as the couple are a pair of introverts "afraid to touch grass."
Pokemon Fans React to Happy Couple's Custom Pokemon TCG Card
Outside of congratulating the couple, Pokemon fans have commented on the card with some amusement. The clever nods like the HP and weaknesses got some laughs out of the community, while some have joked about how the Slowpoke illustration looks like it's a balloon, about to float away. The design was intentional, though, as Victoria shared an image of "their Slowpoke," which is an extra-large plush variant of the iconic pink Pokemon that looks just as goofy as the illustration. Others asked about where the couple had it made, to which the OP responded that an artist named TheHolyBun made it for them.
Pokemon has become a big part of many fans' lives, and as a result, fans' favorites and the series in general have been incorporated into exciting events. Whether a Pokemon fan is celebrating a birthday, graduating from college, or getting married, Pokemon gets involved everywhere.
