I think you mean 'Populate or Perish.' It refers to Australia's problem of increasing its population so that the country would have enough people to defend it against an invader. In 1942 Australia with its small population was in grave danger of Japanese invasion. The British had been defeated at Singapore, forcing Australia to seek an alliance with the US. After the war, the next likely invader was Communism. The Australian government attempted to increase its population naturally, with little success, before accepting white immigrants from Europe to become Australians.

What does perish wish do?

It's actually Perish Song and EVERYONE in battle, including the attacker, has three turns until they, well, perish. (And by perish I mean ONE HIT KO). But the good part is that the effect wears off if you switch Pokemon, but if YOU are using the move, it's bad for the opponent to switch out. So here's a list of move combinations with Perish Song: Perish Song+ Whirlpool Sand Tomb Fire Spin Mean Look Spider Web Spikes (yes they switch out, but the Pokemon coming out gets attacked.)
