Pokemoning (to pokemon) is an uncommon gaming term used to describe the act of saving the game at the top of a crucial moment and using a quit and load routine until you have succeeded in what you were attempting to do. This term is a reference to the fact that this method is used by many pokemon players to capture legendary pokemon that they only get one chance on. However the term is used on any game where the "save scum" is possible.
