Today’s Question:
QotD: Has everyone been wrong this whole time due to a translation error? Is a single Pokemon considered a Pokeman?

Helpful considerations: All it takes is one memo read wrong 30 years ago and we have a global phenomenon too big to stop. Could all those parents have been correct about calling them pokeman? Whats next, games systems are really called nintendos?
