The Pokemon craze has officially reached the MMA Octogon.

During a Bellator 158 fight on Saturday, Michael “Venom” Page knocked out Evangelista “Cyborg” Santos with a flying knee. But rather than a traditional victory celebration, the welterweight fighter — outfitted with a Pokemon trainer hat — proceeded to roll a Pokeball toward his opponent to signal his successful catch.

Guess you really do have to catch ‘em all.
