Gloom first appeared in the original Pokémon games of the 1990s as the middle evolution of Oddish, and it later became a familiar face in the long-running Pokémon anime. Its in-game cry has been carried forward across generations of games, so longtime players recognise it instantly even without seeing the Pokémon on screen. Online, the short clip circulates mainly among Pokémon fans, who reuse it in edits, reaction videos and soundboards as a shorthand for a droopy, unimpressed mood. That combination of nostalgia and a very specific character keeps it in use.

The classic cry of Gloom, the grass and poison Pokémon, taken from the original games and anime. Fans use it for reaction clips, edits and gaming moments.
This is the short in-game cry of Gloom, the droopy flower Pokémon that evolves from Oddish and into Vileplume or Bellossom. Lasting under two seconds, it is a brief, warbly electronic call that rises and falls in a slightly sad, sleepy tone, matching the Pokémon's famously gloomy expression and the drool-like scent it is known for in the games. Played on its own it instantly reads as a Pokémon encounter, while dropped into an edit it lands as a small, knowing joke for fans who recognise the creature from the games and anime. It is cute rather than dramatic, and its brevity makes it easy to repeat.
