Peekimon Get is a mobile game featured Peekimon.
History
Lenny was playing the game at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and walked into the reactor core trying to catch a Rottata. After calling the game stupid, Homer started playing it, too, and got addicted. After he got sprayed by a skunk trying to catch Peekimon, Lisa started playing with him.
Many Springfielders started playing the game, too. After Phoebe Pratt went missing, Lisa gathered Peekimon Get players to help search for her whilst playing.
Behind the Laughter
- Peekimon Get is a parody of the mobile app by Niantic Pokémon GO.
- The theme song is a parody of the first English Pokémon Theme.
- Some of the "Peekimon" in the game are obvious parodies of actual Pokemon, such as "Rotatta" being based on Rattata, Eevee(colored purple and red similar to Zorua), Quagsire (with Wartortle's and Lickitung's features), Beedrill (colored green and also resembling Scyther), Xerneas (colored pink and also resembling Cobalion), Kabuto (colored purple and sporting similaries to Lairon), a red dragon resembling either Charizard, Gyarados and/or Rayquaza, Grimer (colored yellow), Nidorina (colored green and also resembling Rhydon), Staryu (with a single eye instead of a red jewel-like "core" and features similar to Mareanie and Toxapex), and a green cat resembling either Meowth, Espeon and/or Gligar. Additionally, Maggie gains a pair of butterfly wings similar to Beautifly's, but colored purple like Venomoth's, Homer dressed as a Sumo wrestler and being mistaken for a Peekimon in-game could be a reference to Makuhita and its evolution Hariyama, both based on Sumo wrestlers, and homer mistaking a real owl and skunk for Peekimon could be a reference to Hoothoot and Noctowl or Rowlet, Dartrix, and Decidueye (all owl Pokemon), and Stunky and Skuntank (both skunk Pokemon), respectively.
