Pope Leo Popplio Pokemon Meme Becomes Reality When Holy Father Signs A Fan's Card
Briefly

Pope Leo XIV signed a Popplio card during a youth trip to Italy, delighting a fan known as ReptileCake. The interaction was lighthearted; the Pope chuckled and engaged with the Pokémon card, showing it to his guards. The fan, who brought two cards—one for the Pope to bless and another to sign—plans to permanently keep the signed card as a cherished personal artifact, ensuring its protection against damage or loss. The signed card is considered one of the most notable Pokémon cards worldwide.
I introduced it as Popplio because it sounds like Pope Leo. He laughed, probably as a courtesy, but he did know about Pokémon cards, he even showed it around to the guards around him.
Nope, I'll never intend to get rid of the card, it is my personal artefact and I will cherish it in sleeve and one-touch UV slab.
With this signature, this card becomes one of the most notable Pokemon cards on the planet.
