Description
This is what happens when you let 10 year olds make decisions.Seriously, why did none of the trainers take the initiative and try and catch Snorlax while it was asleep? They spend most of their time trying to incapacitate pokemon, but when they find one where the jobs been done for them, they're all "Oooohno MUST FIND A POKEFLUTE."
I had issues with this comic because it swung from too subtle to literally just writing down the joke. And then I came up with a much better comic with the same joke after I'd finished it. Godammit brain, if you're going to be a jerk I'm going to stop working with you.
Watch this space for a potential part 2 (because I seem to do that with pokemon)! I'm away for a week but I'll try to actually update in a decent timeframe and not, say, a month.
And has anyone noticed how I only seem to have second evolutions?

I......Never thought of this. It's also the only time you can catch snorlax in the gameΒ

Can't you just climb over it? Maybe bounce like a derp a little, then jump off and continue your journey while making your Pokemon forget what they just saw you do.

Given you need to lower he/she's HP but HE/SHE IS ASLEEP! Having a sleeping pokemon helps to catch it! Though I guess having to wake it up was simply an extra challange.

Because simple pokeballs don't cut it with a heavy Snorlax, it takes a few greatballs.

In the anime the pokeball bounced off snorlax when it was asleep
But I know exactly what you mean. Besides, you can throw it at its HEAD.
Congrats, Trainer, you discovered Nintendo Logic.
lol I like the comic though- its funny

Haha, I never really thought about it before. Seriously, it'd be a lot easier to just catch it while it's already sleeping!

It certainly is a weird aspect to the original Pokemon games... especially since Pokemon are EASIER to catch when asleep!

UHOH! A SLEEPING POKEMON!!! LET'S USE THE POKEFLUTE!
"Red Used the Pokeflute. Snorelax woke up: It attacked in a grumpy rage"
NOW WE BATTLE IT! Wait... why didn't I just battle it while it was asleep?
Yes, I completely agree with everything in this comic XD

Even the guys who made the Pokemon anime found this stupid, so they had to make it where it wouldn't be caught for some unexplained reason. At least they TRIED.

Isn't there a hack that allows you to catch a sleeping Snorlax? And if there isn't, someone should go make one.

........ why don't they just walk over it? Or hop the fence and around the snorlax?

Sadly, there is a trope to explain those problems with the fences in games:
The Insurmountable Waist High Tree/Fence/Wall/Whatever-The-Hell-Is-In-Your-Way.

If his partners making this face, imagine what he'll do when his trainer wakesup the Snorlax just to put it to sleep for an easier catch right after XD
