Trivia

Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Gotta Meme 'em All: Spiraling Out of Control!

The Helix Fossil became a meme as a result of the first Pokémon Red and Blue run of Twitch Plays Pokémon, which also produced the meme "Lord Helix" in relation to Omanyte.
In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, when the language is set to French, before battle Brawly says, "J'ai découvert le secret de la vraie puissance en fixant un Nautile pendant des jours et des jours...", referencing the aforementioned meme.
