I’m betting these Magikarp variants would also have their own variants of Gyarados or something more unique to each form if the Pokémon Company would give their artists the time to design and create them. A Pokémon fan can dream, can’t he?
I like to think that the baby Nidoran is us getting to see an infant version of them before sexual dimorphism started appearing. Like how human babies look pretty similar until they grow up a bit
@@kociarzultimate384 My head canon is that the line is drawn with their evolution lines being so different. I believe they are the only case of both the evolution lines and their physical attributes being different.
It's also possible that Pokémon can breed in multiple ways. What they do in the Daycare clearly isn't sexual reproduction but it's possible wild Pokémon could do that too
Kecleon don't really _come_ in multiple colors so much as they can _turn_ any color, being chameleon-based and all. In fact, the lore is that they can change color on any part of their body except that zig-zagged band around the abdomen, which is why that part's the part that's a different color on the shiny.
Considering Scarlet and Violet's whole thing is crystals I thought for sure Crystal Onix would be a regional variant or at least be referenced in some way.
Primal Dialga doesn't really have anything to do with Groundon and Kyogre. The name "Primal" itself was just a localization change. It's called "Yami no Dialga" in japanese, which roughly translates to Dialga of Darkness or Dark Dialga. It doesn't have anything to do with Shadow Pokémon either. They're called "Dark Pokémon" in Japan, but they use the english word for it.
i kinda wish that some artists would draw some evolutions for those Magikarps either variants for Gyrados or brand new ones, sounds like it could be cool :D
I'd bet a few pokedollars that GameFreak originally intended Kecleon to change color based on what type it turned into with its ability but they either couldn't get it to work or it was cut for time. The ability is literally called "Color Change" after all (even in Japan, so it's not just a localization thing), it would make complete sense and give an actual in-game indicator of what type it currently is rather than just needing to remember it. Plus Gen3 was the generation that first introduced forms, so having a pokemon that could change color during battle would fit right alongside Castform changing shape / type with weather and the Deoxys forms. It's a shame they never went back and revised Kecleon to take on that trait. Now we have a handful of different pokemon that change color based on their type, but the chameleon pokemon with an ability named "Color Change" isn't one of them. And its probably too little too late at this point now that Kecleon has a second ability in Protean, because changing the color of its sprite definitely seems like a unique gimmick that would lock its ability much like all the other pokemon that can do similar things.
@6:45 Just so you know, Wonder Guard doesn't block passive damage, which is common in competitive Pokémon, so Ma-Jinn wouldn't be as strong as some of you are probably thinking.
depends on what moves it can learn and its HP stat. Like Shedinja is just garbo cause it has 1 HP but if Ma-Jinn has at least a semi solid HP stat and moves like Recover or Rest it could be near unstoppable. Rest, Sunny Day/Rain Dance would make it very hard to kill pre-Fairy without the person using it to deliberately throw the match.
@@Blossemfall I'm not saying it wouldn't be immediately broken; but rather that noobs going in with Ma-Jinn and expecting to get a 100% win rate would be in for a nasty surprise when it gets hit with Toxic, a perish trap, et cetera…
A fun thing about Bonsly appearing in Pokemon XD is that you actually *could* battle with it in the Battle Bingo side activity. If you got the Bonsly card (as was actually shown in the footage for XD) you could play the game and use Bonsly as your Pokemon for it, coming with the move Rock Slide.
They don't need to match the pattern for the Gyarados. Just match the color scheme, for instance the one that was white with a orange mark on it's head evolve into a Gyarados that has it's main color be white and the secondary one be orange
If you make another part, you could mention the pink female Butterfree from the Anime. This possible fairy type pokemon never made her way into the games.
When I first played Pokemon Diamond when I found out Burmy had a Trash Cloak and a Sand Cloak from, I thought it was really weird that Burmy didn't have a Snow Cloak form in the snowy part of Sinnoh. Even now I think it was SUCH a missed opportunity. (When I first said this, someone pointed out that apparently this apparently could not work at all. I only thought it would of been cool to see especially that Burmy didn't get any other cloak forms after Gen 4)
Dr. Lava recently posted about the Designs of Vullaby and Mandibuzz's eggshell and skirt being the 2 parts of one skull. Although, the skull doesnt seem to line up with and current Pokemon designs.
With Shadow Mewtwo being unobtainable, I like the think because its a Legendary it's heart is too dark to allow itself to be captured. In Pokemon Acerus, it was hinted that Legendary Pokemon allow themselves to be captured, as was the case with the Weather Trio/Quartet when Cogito said they were allowing themselves to travel with the player. Yes, you have to best them in battle most times so they will submit, but it explains how there can only be one in a game's universe, its the fact when its done with the trainer, it can leave. Shadow Mewtwo in spite of being beaten refuses this and will never partner with a trainer.
4:19 Hey, I recognize that footage! No way can I not recognize Chamomile and Willow of Team Rose Thorn courtesy of a Chuggaaconroy (would've appreciated proper credit given where it's due as far as game footage goes, tho)
With the kecleon, I believe that the second one just changed it's color. Kecleon has the ability color change and in the Pokedex, it says that it can freely change it's color. The ability just changes the type to the type of the attack that hit it. You even need a special item to get past an invisible one.
I think that Crystal Onix just ended up becoming the inspiration for Steelix since Steelix, according to Gold and Silver's pokedex, is formed in a similar fashion.
Mega steelix has crystals around it. Crystal onix could be an onix that was ready to evolve. It was alread weak to fire moves and not so weak to water.
Honestly the Magikarp variants being available in the mainline games would be iconic. Give me a fishing competition in the vein of the bug catching contest and score the Magikarp by size and pattern. That'd be a great way to kill time, work on a collection, grind for rare or exclusive prizes, etc.
It may be just me, but I get the idea that the ultimate weapon was made out of the same crystals responsible for the main gimmick and events in Scarlet and Violet. Kalos and Paldea aren't very far from one another after all and it wouldn't be a stretch to assume the material that made the ultimate weapon came from there
the baby nidoran are so adorable I'm actually surprised that the other forms of magikarp didn't appear in the main games or even the anime which is known for giving us those moments,really surprised they didn't do that since journey litterally did a full on episode based off of magikarp jump,should've added all the different forms in the anime in that episode,sure would've love to see goh even catching all of the different magikarp as well
There are certainly many of these. For example, you can't catch "Douno" either, even though this pre-evolution of Doduo and Dotrio is mentioned in the Pokedex.
In the Pokémon Anime Episode, “Bye Bye, Butterfree!”, there is a Pink Butterfree that falls in love with Ash’s Butterfree! This one might be more iconic than Crystal Onix! How have you not mentioned it yet?!
Thank you for mentioning the Crystal Onix. This was a Pokémon I have wanted to appear in the main series games ever since they brought in regional variants. This could exist by changing its typing and evolution methods. Even making it a Paradox Pokemon would have been acceptable if you don’t want it to evolve. I’m surprised to learn the other Kecleon colors from TCG. Along with the Purple Kecleon in the anime and Mystery Dungeon games, I would assume this was an idea for Kecleon’s Color Change ability which would have physically change its color depending the type. Meaning we would’ve gotten various Kecleon forms at the time. Maybe they couldn’t do it at the time or it was just scraped but kept the artwork that was repurposed. It’s not like we have Pokémon with a multitude of forms. (Spinda and Alcremie)
The red movie "humanoid" monster thing puts out vibes of that old pokemon creepypasta I can't remember the name of that people said could come for you in lavender tower. i also always figured it and red monster were the same, just it has a Humanoid form
You mentioned Shadow Mewtwo but I would love to have been able to catch the Armored Mewtwo that appeared in the anime. I loved that look and even though I'm glad that Mewtwo broke free from it I still liked the look
Tyranitar is based off of Godzilla, and both MT and Iron Thorns are based off of Mecha Godzilla, so yes and no in your theory. Toho in general is highly influencal in Pokémon, from it's origins, to the fact they are producers of the Anime.
Question considering that I haven’t seen part 1 yet, has Munchlax in the OG Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Red and Blue been mentioned and would it count as a Pokémon you Can’t Catch?
Honestly, Pokemon Cafe Remix would be the perfect spot to introduce brand new Pokemon from a new generation without letting you play with them. Special events of a "Foreign Customer" from a new region arriving to the Cafe during the hype train of new generations. They have a special challenge order minigame or whatever included. Then again no one cares for Cafe Remix but ya know.
6:43 - The Fairy type was added in Gen 6, not Gen 5. 4:11 - Kecleon is based on a chameleon and is capable of changing its colour, and it can even make itself virtually invisible using that camouflage ability... Though it struggles to change the zig-zag pattern on its midsection, which is why that's what's used to tell if it's shiny or not. So, really, the green and yellow on Kecleon could be virtually any combination of colours on any individual Kecleon. They just never change from the "default" colours in the main series games. ...I do wish that that were rectified in some capacity. It's unlikely, though.
@@TheRedSmarty well there's always the animwe that could give us thier own special colors,but did they do that? nope missed opportunity since the anime is known to make varients as well
Well if we are including the manga, theres quite a few pokemon that cant be obtained thats only from the pokemon adventures manga that you can add to part 3: - Red's reverse evolving eevee - Blue's green gyarados - Zapmolcuno - Diamond's Torterra that knows the move "Dia's Mach One and Only Razor Leaf" (yes thats the name and its basically a grass type priority move)😅
4:55 I always assumed these different colors of Kecleon are Kecleon that assumed different types by their signature ability. It is called "Color Change" after all. 6:47 "[...]the Fairy Type being introduced in Gen 5." - That's a bold claim. 8:00 I don't understand this: Why can't we catch the Pokéstar Studios things? Because they are (even within the Pokémon World) fiction. They aren't real. You cannot obtain what doesn't exist.
Pretty sure the baby Nidoran were just small Nidoran as the quote used suggests by literally calling them Nidoran. There's no suggestion of a seperate pokemon here.
This was a translation error, but I recall an NPC in Gen 1 talking about their Raichu Evolving after trading. It could also be worth mentioning because a Raichu evolution was initially planned but omitted before red/green.
I believe the actual inspiration for tyranitar's mecha versions would be mechagodzilla and that they kept that idea since tyranitar is one of the godzilla based pokemon
Regarding having future Pokemon like Bonsly and Munchlax appearing to hype up the next installments, didn't they do that with Galarian Slowpoke in the SM series?
I wanna give an honorable mention to ALL Orange Island varients. 13:05 I'd ccunt that as an honarable mention rather than 100% can't catch them cos you can get them in Gen 4.
I've usually ignored most of the side games in the main series games, like the contests etc. and focused mostly on the main gameplay, so I never fought these cinema Pokemon. Those were cool to see. I also hope Crystal Onix will become a thing someday...
Mystery type still technically exists, though it's not exactly what you would call something that you can keep a Pokemon as or use at all times. Metronome 1/2, mimic and struggle are moves that are able to give you moves with the type. There are also some moves that will remove the type of the Pokemon that uses it, though typically it will only remove a single specific type.
???-type Arceus only existed to prevent crashes should one hack it into a game. Due to Multitype always referring back to the plate in battle, it will revert to Normal unless equipped with a plate. ???-type plates don't exist. Curse only had the ??? type in Gens 2 and 3 due to it changing depending on the user. Afterwards it was changed to Ghost. Eggs in Gen 3 also used ??? type but since we're changed to Normal. Moves that remove types like Roost or Burn Up only cause mono-types of the lost type to become typeless like Struggle for however long the move lasts, a turn for Roost and until switch off/end of battle for the rest.
@motxmod You just described what I was talking about, you might not have understood that but you did. Arkanine and other single types are able to become what it commonly referred to as mystery, ???, or type less. All are functioning the exact same way and all are displayed in the same way. This said you may not have caught what I was describing or not been paying attention. I completely understand why certain things are the way they are. Something else to consider is that there is a huge list of items that were in generation one and two that you might not have known about. The surf board, Terra suma, over level Rare candy, ???, Alternative HM 01 through 07, I can keep going on but the list of items that were typically only obtained through hacking or glitches. I'm completely willing to understand that the old games were extremely glitch filled along with barely being functional in many ways.
@motxmod It was displayed that way even if it wasn't necessary stated in the code. There are all kinds of things that might not be specifically stated in the code that the game does its best to display properly though it may not work properly. The next thing is that the game systems and item lists along with so much more is possible for them to do dealing with the way they display the pokemon and how they could easily clean up the item lists and shiny forms and other things. For example its entirely possible for them to simply have a simple bit of code that denotes the color scheme of a pokemon and then they could have 30 or more shiny or color variations on all pokemon. The next part is that they could have a pile of items that could easily be combined into a few fairly specific items. For example all of the Z crystals could be combined into one or two and the same for all of the mega stones and they could completely remove the urges from the game itself and they could also give all pokemon extra possible ways to evolve so you wouldn't have a charmander locked up at level 100 for example. This said there was a pile of things that they haven't technically removed or that they tried to remove but didn't completely remove. ??? Might not be a type technically after generation 5 but they still display type less as ??? Quite often. I don't claim to know everything but if it still doesn't display properly but as ??? Then they might as well not have removed it because it is not displayed properly. Typeless still displays as ??? Even though it might not be that it is still grouped under mystery type or ??? Even though it might not technically be that. Lastly there are some moves that it's impossible for them to get a STAB for any reason because of how the game is coded.
What you said about Fuecoco as an unobtainable Pokémon in Legends Arceus may be a great promotion, however, this may give a door for a possibility of a Hisuian Evolution line for Fuecoco, which may give the devs a harder time.
I think he meant having it appear in a similar way to the Munchlax and Bonsly in Gale of Darkness. You can't obtain them so you can't train them and evolve them. They could just have a traveler npc have a Fuecoco that never evolves. Also, not every Pokemon in Legends Arceus has a Hisuian form, so that's not something they'd have to worry about unless they wanted to put in the extra effort.
Yeah like if it belonged to the professor. So it's something we could see in his office and maybe talk to but not one we would be able to interact with. Like we couldn't battle it cuz it wouldn't belong to somebody we're going to fight. It would belong to somebody who's an ally but you know they're not battling us
I don't get why so many people want a Primal Dialga that is the same as Mystery Dungeon. That Primal Dialga looks like just Dialga with a darker blue and orange bits. Basically just an alternate shiny color. And as weird as Origin Form Dialga looks, it still looks better as a new form than Primal Dialga.
@@zerotodona1495 It is just a recolor versus something that actually changes the shape of the mon. Like there are only a few mons like Flabebe or Deerling where the single color change works, but on a legendary mon, and especially after seeing Primal Dialga and Palkia, I would expect more than a pallet swap if Primal Dialga were to ever make it into the main games
I think excluding Crystal Onix from SV makes sense. Not only would it minimize confusion vis-a-vis terrastalization, but the Crystal Onix lives in the Orange Islands. Also, three-headed Weezing could be on list #3. And finally, I'm okay with Nintendo trolling BKT. He is not my good friend.
Everyone says ghost dark has no weakness, which is not true. Normal and fighting do not affect ghost types. However if able to hit due to scrappy or some other method, you'll find the normal and fighting are neutral to ghost. So by logic that means fighting is 2x super effective to ghost dark. Which means it does have a weakness. Foresight is the other way to figure this out. If you played enough gen 4 you probably spent a while trying to figure out Cynthia's spiritomb.
Let's not forget there's also the Pinkan Island variation of pokemon you ONLY see in the anime!! As well as the ones from Valencian island!! Where's all the cute Pink pokemon and Valencian Butterfree?!?? GameFreak give us the good stuff!! 💔😭😭😭💔
Soo were you referring to munchlax not being catchable in that one particular game or in general? Because you can catch it in gen 4 with the honey tree.
2:00 I dunno if I trust this "official source" since it looks like they made nidoran male, female, giving the pink one eyelashes and the blue (female) no lashes which usually is seen as boy and girl traits. Along with pink usually being for girls and blue for boys.
Really appreciate ur commitment and dedication to ur vedios cuz we all know that gathering all these facts takes a lot of time research and time, so thank you for taking ur time just for our enjoyment and excitement ❤
Huh just had a thought. Nidoran male and female count as separate Pokémon and of they were ever made a single set they would need another Pokémon to fill the 151.
Shadow Pokémon, including Shadow MewToo exist in Pokémon GO. It is close to the most powerful Pokémon in that game. If they ever release Mega MewToo X or Mega MewToo Y, those would be more powerful.
Part of me now wishes that they have Crystal Onyx in the game as a regional variant. Maybe have it as an Ice/Rock or Ice/Ground type would work well for this Pokemon. Then they could make this as a sort of story arc
Crazy but in the time of the Pokemon PokeGod rumors like PikaBlu I seen Kecleon in a Japanese show and we didnt know it was Kecleon at that time in the US so I thought it was Celebi's evolution I thought it was so cool.
What about shadow lugia, ancient alakazam, gengar, jigglypuff from anime, ghost sprite from lavender town, substitute doll, ghastly with transform from anime, pink pokemons from the pink island, pink butterfree, black jynx, mewtwo clones, prof. Ivys pokemons, blue eyed Pikachu, golden sudowoodo, snorlax snowman, "primal" pikachu, Acelora's floating mimikyu...
