'''Pokémon {{wp|senryū}}''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン川柳''') are {{wp|haiku}}-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes. Composing them is a hobby of Professor Oak usually used to close his lectures in the anime. Senryū are generally light-hearted or humorous, and they consist of three lines with 17 or fewer {{wp|morae}}. Unlike haiku, senryū do not require a {{wp|kigo}} (season word). The art form was created in the {{wp|Edo era}} of real-world Japan by Senryū Karai (柄井川柳, 1718-1790).
