Similar case: When I was in high school, I took an advanced chemistry course. The girl beside me was one of the top students in the school. We were doing lab work one day and she set a hot crucible on a piece of paper and caught it on fire. She completely froze and just stood there staring at this flaming piece of paper. I quickly grabbed some tongs, dumped the paper into the trough in front of us and turned on the water. The first words out of her mouth were, "How did you ever think to do that?" I was floored. Had she never played Rock, Paper, Scissors? Water puts out fire. End of story. <eyeroll>

I'd say that's more Pokemon than RPS related. :p
