Editing Chinpokomon (episode) (section)

===Shout Outs===
Some Chinpokomon have designs directly inspired by actual Pokemon. Furrycat is a green version of Meowth. Chu-Chu Nezumi's name is based off of Pikachu's (''nezumi'' means "rat" in Japanese like what Pikachu is; ''chu chu'' is the Japanese onomatopoeia of squeaking like a mouse). However, Chu-Chu Nezumi has wings and an orange color similar to Charizard.

The main character of the Chinpokomon cartoon show resembles Ash Ketchum, the main character of the ''Pokemon'' anime with a trucker hat. One of the villains resembles James from Team Rocket (with the colors of Butch, another Team Rocket member).

Kenny's seizure is a reference to a controversial incident in Japan, where the broadcast debut of a Pokemon episode called "Dennō Senshi Porygon" or "Electric Soldier Porygon" caused seizures in 685 viewers. The episode included strobing red lights which can induce seizures, a condition called photosensitive epilepsy, in a small portion of the population. The episode was never rebroadcast worldwide.

After the kids' parents get them to stop liking Chinpokomon, Stan's mom tells Mr. Garrison to "Get on the wire to every parent around the country and tell them how to bring those sons of bitches down." Mr. Garrison promptly uses a telegraph to spread Sharon's message. This is a reference to the 1996 film ''Independence Day''.

When talking about how stupid TV shows can destroy a child's mind, Sharon begs Randy to "remember what ''Battle of the Network Stars'' did to an entire generation." ''Battle of the Network Stars'' was a long-running TV series from 1976-1988 that pitted popular television stars against one another.

Kyle uses the phrase "ay-eet", trying to say it the way Lauryn Hill used to. Lauryn Hill is an American singer known for being a member of the Fugees, a hip hop group in the late '90s.
