“Ke Ke Ke Ke” is a type of Team GO Rocket Grunt that players can defeat in Pokémon GO characterized by the sound the Grunt makes when confronting a Trainer. For example, a Grunt might greet the following hostile statement, “If you get in our way…you’ll really be in our way! Feeling lucky, punk? Go ahead, take another step!” After receiving the ‘s unrefined salute, Pokémon GO players are given the choice of battling the Team GO Rocket member. In this window, the outlandish phrase, “Ke…ke…ke… ke…ke…ke…” will appear. This phrase indicates what kind of Pokémon the Grunt will dispatch in battle.
