Can’t let you use that, Arbok!

Carl Ridgeway thought he could escape Wolf jokes in the world of Pokémon. HE WAS MISTAKEN!

  2. Orion Fury on June 5th, 2008 11:36 am

    I lol’ed

  3. zinraidragon on June 5th, 2008 11:45 am

  4. kingbob on June 5th, 2008 11:54 am

    @zin
    ditto

    lol’d hard

  5. The Silent One on June 5th, 2008 11:59 am

    Nice.

  6. MushroomBoy on June 5th, 2008 12:05 pm

    arbok doesn’t sound like starfox at all.

    this one fucking sucks balls.

  7. smashpro1 on June 5th, 2008 12:34 pm

    It needs to rhyme with Starfox. Maybe if there were wultiple Arboks it would work, but just one doesn’t

  8. Pauld'Arbonne on June 5th, 2008 12:36 pm

    Wow, usually I hate the Wolf jokes but this one actually made me snicker a little.

  9. MAH BOI on June 5th, 2008 1:10 pm

    Arbok is making a :( face

  10. Li Zhang on June 5th, 2008 1:10 pm

    I lol’d hard.

  11. mib on June 5th, 2008 1:32 pm

    @ shroomboy & smashpro
    its close enough ya whiney pussies

  12. MushroomBoy on June 5th, 2008 1:56 pm

    @ mib.

    no, it’s not. just cuz there’ve been five before it, and each one is less and less close doesn’t mean this one is good.

    it’s, in fact. no good. also, don’t try and be all tough on a site like this. i can say whatever i want about these.

    gtfo.

  13. ManiacalZManiac on June 5th, 2008 2:10 pm

    Yes! Go Shawn! I Actually Laughed At THis One.

  14. Optimus Rhyme on June 5th, 2008 2:27 pm

    Shoulda used Dustox…

  15. B-mac on June 5th, 2008 3:24 pm

    AWESOME!!! This one rocked! And the rhyme scheme was good enough. Also, it was funny. And shroomboy, it is close enough. How many past ones had the first syllable rhyme, as well as a very close second? Not many.

  16. Captain Obvious on June 5th, 2008 3:33 pm

    I bet the spread of votes is all 1’s and 5’s

  17. lolhax on June 5th, 2008 3:49 pm

    Fiver.

  18. FrEEz on June 5th, 2008 4:52 pm

    Meh. No comment. 3/5, simply because i’m seriously getting bored of these, and shawn needs to shift+Delete ‘Can’t Let You Do That_Wolf.meme’ file from his memory .-.

    Yeah that was lame

  19. Sir_AuronDX on June 5th, 2008 5:05 pm

    i was gonna scream NOOOOOOOO but then i snickered….+4 for using pokeman
    -1 for starwolf

  20. EmberFury on June 5th, 2008 5:46 pm

    Haha, this one’s clever!
    I don’t see why people are sick of these, though…
    I laugh at just about every one of them!
    Well, except for the Storm Hawks one. That one just seemed like reaching or trying too hard. It made me smile, though.
    @FrEEz:
    “shift+Delete ‘Can’t Let You Do That_Wolf.meme’…
    That made me laugh too.

  21. Red on June 5th, 2008 5:49 pm

    HANDYSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE!!!

  22. Koth on June 5th, 2008 6:11 pm

    That was actually good. Still, Wolf needs to GTFO our Halolz.

  23. Setsuna Setsunai on June 5th, 2008 6:21 pm

    I agree, this is one of the funnier Wolflolz on the site. We need a Pokemon game with Star Wolf as the rival, because he CAN’T LOOOOOOSE!

  24. GermaineTrain on June 5th, 2008 6:37 pm

    but WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

    ITS SUPER EFFECTIVE!

  26. Kevin J. on June 5th, 2008 7:12 pm

    ehhh… it’s not too bad. At least we haven’t seen a wolf one in a while, so I’m guessing Handyside is trying his hardest to spread these things out…
    Oh, and mushroomboy is kind of a hypocrite :P

  27. Paulrus on June 5th, 2008 9:02 pm

    Rhyme or no rhyme, it’s still better than past endeavors.

  28. Boreas on June 5th, 2008 9:44 pm

    Toxic + Wrap + Double Team + Iron Tail = Win

  29. killercartoons on June 6th, 2008 12:12 am

    ARBOK used WRAP!
    STARWOLF Won’t Let Him Do That!
    STARWOLF used LOL!

  30. Soup on June 6th, 2008 12:35 am

    haha i thought this was good.

    and lol @ mushroomboy for getting all defensive and actually telling someone to “gtfo”… who even says that anymore? and does anyone really get the fuck out when told to?

  31. Dan on June 6th, 2008 2:21 am

    This is the weirdest meme I’ve ever followed. The core concept is a really lame joke, all you need to do is come up with the strangest thing that rhymes with Star Fox. That doesn’t sound like a recipe for success, but somehow it works. I rather detest both memes and Pokemon, which makes it all the more remarkable that this made me laugh out loud.

  32. MattDark on June 6th, 2008 3:22 am

    Makes me worry about the fact Ive had a ‘cant let you do that…’ idea, considering some people are still hating, despite this being a return to form after alot of the others…

  33. DarthCiD on June 6th, 2008 8:40 am

    it doesnt matter if it ryhmes, thats not the joke anymore, while the majority of starwolves suck this made me laugh ut loud, or lol as it was, so for that 5.

  34. DarthCiD on June 6th, 2008 8:41 am

    Also, i think there are enough already for starwolf to get his own tag, as its not going to die anytime soon.

  35. Ars Arcanum on June 6th, 2008 8:56 am


    Goddamn it…on the one hand you used Pokemon. +10
    On the other hand you used a Starfox wolf joke. -8
    And lastly, on my third “arm”, it’s been a while since you did a wolf joke. +1 (+3 for you guys who didn’t pass elementary school math. :P)

  36. KoRoBeNiKi on June 6th, 2008 9:06 am

    +10 for pokemon joke
    -2 for wolf refrence
    -4 for not making wolf look retro :P
    4/5
    loool

  37. Ryumaru on June 6th, 2008 9:48 am

    When I saw this, I facepalm’d. But in a good way. It just surprised me. Nice job.

  38. killercartoons on June 6th, 2008 2:09 pm

    ARBOK used WRAP!
    STARWOLF won’t let it do that!
    STARWOLF used LOL!

  39. Ilk on June 6th, 2008 2:58 pm

    You should have used the Pokemon Dustox.

    At least that would have ryhmed.

    Still, this made me giggle a lil’. =^_^=

  40. Myrmidont on June 6th, 2008 4:01 pm

    @Ilk: You mean like it already does?

  41. POW3RUP on June 6th, 2008 5:34 pm

    Nice

  42. mib on June 6th, 2008 5:36 pm

    wtf is dustox?
    damn kids today and there newfangled pokemans…

  43. mib on June 6th, 2008 5:36 pm

    whoops, their*

  44. Twentay on June 6th, 2008 11:23 pm

    @Mib
    Nice reference

    @ Pic
    I chuckled
    in my opinion
    I loved the Guy Fawkes one just because I knew the story
    was the best for me
    BUT
    this was good. And +10 for making Arbok having a sad face

  45. B-mac on June 7th, 2008 9:44 am

    I have an awesome idea for a StarWolf joke now. Just gotta figure out how to edit a pic and place Wolf in it…

  46. Da Noob on June 7th, 2008 9:58 am

    *sigh* not ANOTHER one!

  47. DarthCiD on June 7th, 2008 3:57 pm

    @mib

    dustox is an original pokemon isnt it.
    or at least theres one similar in the original line up.

  48. DarthCiD on June 7th, 2008 3:57 pm

    sorry, my bad, jus googled it

  49. DarthCiD on June 7th, 2008 4:01 pm

    im thinking of venomoth, i love google.

  50. Gaudion on June 7th, 2008 9:19 pm

    Just when I thought we were out of all good Wolf jokes and all future ones would suck… this one made me lawl.

  51. Ilk on June 7th, 2008 9:40 pm

    @Myrmidont
    “ok” and “ox” are two totally different sounds. Thus Dustox would have sounded better.
    Though it’s a sorry excuse for a Pokemon. Arbok is smexier.
    The wolf jokes are funny, but I think it’s getting run into the ground. =-_-=

  52. Raiden_Zer0 on June 9th, 2008 12:59 am

    I’m going to break some brains here …but Arbok and StarFox DO rhyme. On one level it’s called Assonance..a rhyme where the vowel sounds match…
    In other words the ‘ok’ in Arbok and the ‘ox’ in StarFox don’t have to match perfectly…though the vowel sounds do.
    In the most basic sense, rhymes are based on the phonetic similarities of words.

    As the Dictionary puts it: Assonance is a rhyme in which the same vowel sounds are used with different consonants in the stressed syllables of the rhyming words, as in ‘penitent’ and ‘reticence’.

    So yes. They rhyme :)

    I also think this is one of the better StarWolf jokes.
    4/5

  53. Dragon Slayer on June 10th, 2008 1:03 am

    OMG ARBOK IS SO BOSS

  54. Halolz on July 16th, 2008 8:39 am

    […] I know, this isn’t much different than the Arbok one… but Blue-Chameleon did such a good job Photoshopping it I couldn’t help myself! […]
