Pokemon Memes

The Pokémon-ML crossover nobody asked for but everyone needed! This gem perfectly captures how every single machine learning course inevitably gravitates toward the Iris dataset. It's basically the "Hello World" of ML—four simple features, three neat classes, and it's been overused since 1936. Instructors dramatically introduce it like they're unveiling some revolutionary dataset, when in reality, it's the same flower measurements that generations of data scientists have cut their teeth on. The Pokéball metaphor is spot-on because just like Ash always reaches for his starter, ML professors can't resist throwing that Iris dataset at bewildered students on day one!
