Actually I know a fencer's teammate would yell, "You fence like a pikachu!", to get the fencer "pissed off" and focus on what he's doing.

hm... I don't think a fencing coach is quite the same thing as a pokemon master. For one thing, most coaches don't imprison their fencers in small red and white balls.

Funnily enough, my coach yells "pikachu!!" at me in order to piss me off and get me to focus better and therefore increase my accuracy...

I'm being serious. He really does. And it works, too.
