Paimon lover or not, even her haters have to admit her memes are hilarious. Of course, in the end, they’re all in good fun! After all, Genshin Impact wouldn’t be the same without the faithful companion. Here are a few hilarious Paimon memes (mainly from the Genshin Impact Reddit) that all fans can get a good laugh out of.
10 Paimon Vs. Paimon
For the players that have watched the 2018 horror film, Hereditary, seeing Paimon’s name pop up the first time may have been a bit of a surprise. Although not pronounced the same (Genshin Impact’s Paimon being “pie-mon” and Hereditary’s Paimon being said “pay-min”), the identical name alone was enough to raise a red flag for some players.
For those unacquainted with Hereditary, originating from a mid-17th century text, there was a powerful yet evil king that was apparently very close to and obedient to Lucifer, that also happened to go by the name Paimon. A hilarious coincidence, of course, but the possibility that Paimon has a dark past that links her to this much more sinister lore is an interesting theory to entertain!
9 Emergency Paimon Sandwich
This Gordon Ramsey meme was likely one of the first memes birthed from the “emergency food” dialogue option the Traveller can respond with when introducing Paimon. After that one prolific line, Paimon’s fate was sealed; she was destined to be the butt of all “emergency food” jokes. This meme perfectly sums up how numerous players feel about Paimon and her supposed place on their team.
This particular joke has been “memed” so many times, this Reddit user actually went one meta step further, stating that the majority of Paimon memes have the same punchline just like the one above!
8 An Imposturous Crossover
A great meme bringing two great games together! This little accidental reference to Among Us that Paimon exclaims in a cutscene immediately caught fans’ attention and thus, the crossover was made. Not really, of course. It’s more than likely a happy coincidence with the English translation. Though, maybe this was Paimon’s sneaky way of self-reporting?
7 What Do You Mean ‘hehe’!?
No one has a shorter temper when it comes to the tone-deaf bard other than Paimon herself. Who knew there could be so much anger in such a tiny being?
During Venti’s storyline, Paimon snaps for a moment after the bard decides to continuously avoid answering any questions by giggling his way out of the situation, depending on his cute appearance to get him out of trouble. However, Paimon wasn’t having any of it. And fans apparently couldn’t get enough of it; even making hour loops of Paimon’s famous, “what do you mean ‘hehe’!?” line on YouTube.

Paimon, for the most part, carries a carefree and fun-loving demeanor, so it’s only natural fans would love her little outbursts!
6 The Paimon Conspiracy Continues
Fans cannot get enough of the idea of Paimon secretly being linked to something bigger, something ominous and perhaps evil. Half-serious, half-joking, fans have taken to drawing up all the connections between Paimon and the possibility of her being involved with the mysterious force that brought the Traveller to the Teyvat in the first place and separated them from their sibling.
Perhaps these memes are harmless fun or perhaps they’re bringing fans closer to the truth behind Paimon?
5 Paimon’s Netflix Adaptation
The whole joke about Netflix adaptation’s casting being a bit iffy knows no bounds. Genshin Impact fans couldn’t resist making a joke about Paimon’s fandom-given nickname and jumped in on this Netflix meme as well.
Not only did they make the joke about Paimon being emergency food for the Traveller, but they also made it a point to use a picture of canned foods that are non-perishable and really emphasizing the “emergency” part of Paimon’s title of “emergency food”. What amazing attention to detail!
4 Cyber Paimon: The Most Ambitious Crossover
This meme is an amazing crossover of two titles that made a huge impact on the gaming community (one perhaps a little more successfully than the other). This Keanu Reeves-Paimon hybrid of a character was thanks to another Reddit user and was a great take on the Cyberpunk 2077 reveal trailer.
On top of the Paimon hairdo, photoshopping Keanu into the world of Genshin Impact was a great touch that truly allowed fans to feel a true sense of immersion.
3 Consolation Prize?
Every Genshin Impact player knows the burn of rolling and rolling, wasting every gem to their name, just to still be without a precious 5-star character. Unknown whether or not this meme was made out of genuine sympathy or sarcasm (Paimon isn’t even a playable character after all), it’s very easily a relatable meme at the very least.
Hopefully, Paimon will help out next time the Traveller is rolling on a 5-star banner they’ve had their eyes on.
2 Paimon: The Waifu Expert
Paimon may be a bit clueless at times, but there’s no doubt she has her priorities straight. Some fans play Genshin Impact for its gameplay, some for its beautiful open-world map, and others for its storytelling. However, there is a portion of players that are in it for the wide range of adorable waifus.
Paimon clearly represents these fans and their feelings toward the cast of cute girls and handsome men in the game. Who cares about stats when it comes to finding the perfect waifu or husbando?
1 Everyone’s Favorite One-Liner
Yet another ribbing on the “emergency food” dialogue option near the beginning of the game, this particular meme calls back to an episode of The Simpsons. If there’s anyone that knows how the Traveller feels about this punchline/meme, it’s Bart in this episode where he rises to fame because of a similar one-liner. As hard as it is on the Traveller, it’s even worse for poor Paimon!
Unfortunately for the Traveller (and Paimon), it doesn’t seem like fans are going to let up on this joke any time soon.
