Is it a drug or Pokemon?


Posted: May 25, 2011

A friend sent me this quiz.  They give you a name and you have to guess if it's a Pokemon or a medication.  I only got 23 out of 40 correct.  Embarrassing.

I also got 23/40. You're right - embarassing! - nm - NYMT

I'm young enough to have recognized a Pokemon or two in there, - but luckily, I recognized more of the meds... (sm)

Actually, one of the Pokemon I "recognized" turned out to be a drug. And one I swore I recognized as a drug turned out to be a Pokemon. "Oh, I know that one! That's a birth control pi--POKEMON!! I MEANT BIRTH CONTROL POKEMON!!"

Let's be glad we don't work for Pokemon hospitals. Imagine mistaking a patient's name for an HIV or cancer drug? That could be a problem..
By the way..sm - Duchess

Since I am not familiar with cancer drugs or reports, those were the ones I got wrong.
