After DeliciousCinnamon's video, talk of the pirated video game spread throughout the various corners of the internet. Catchphrases derived from the game such as VOLCANO BAKEMEAT, TRASHY, and GO TO THE ELF'S WORLD became popular, and image macros and fanart were made centered around this terrible translation. Even today, ''Pokémon Vietnamese Crystal'' still remains one of the most popular memes in the Pokémon fandom. | After DeliciousCinnamon's video, talk of the pirated video game spread throughout the various corners of the internet.
