Every CRAZY Pokedex Entry in Scarlet & Violet's DLC 

It'll be funny to see Elsa tear up the road in a dune buggy

Boggy Fans

will you do a brand new top 10 of your new favorite pokemon and great video

Bro💀

the opposite of a symbiotic relationship is just a parasite or parasitic relationship i would think

For me it was the thought that maybe ariodos isn't picky to where it makes its nest say in a tree or cave maybe even on a rock face it'll just make a nest anywhere

or maybe pokedex entries aren't meant to be taken seriously?

​@@theamazingspooderman2697 Nah

@@theamazingspooderman2697possible but boring

I thought it was because they always imply the different versions are very similar parallel universes (ie two whole different fruit themed schools exist in the "same" region) so logically some of the mons, no matter how similar, would act bit differently.. like the Paradox mons? In their "home" game we have actual info and confirmed sightings while in the opposing version it is more like "these are made up things that somehow exist" without much more info

yeah, plus Hydrapple having regenerator for an ability makes sense because of the mythical creature it's based on being the Hydra

@@bulborb8756oh, that explains why it has regenerator

Probably. Its German entry calls them "Schlangel", with "Schlange" meaning "snake", and the "-l" at the end probably coming from "Apfel", the German word for apple, since that word is also part of all the Applin-lines' names, so the "Syr" coming from syrup is probably more likely than the y from wyrm. Also, its Japanese name "Kamitsu-Orochi" comes from the Japanese word for flower-nectar, so the syrup-aspect is clearly important to it.

@@The76532 yup because the Hydra has extraordinary regenerative abilities where when 1 head it cut off, 2 more grow back in its place

Where did he see wyrm

Or, the reason why Tentacruel has a dark face, is because it's hiding it's other tentacles cause using all of them would be a hassle

​@@Macros9723a tangrowth before tangrowth

maybe they're simply translucid, so we won't see them despite being there

@@leonardolonghi3472 You mean translucent? You can still see translucent things, though. They are just harder to see. Transparent is probably what you actially meant... but biologically, that wouldn't make sense. No, the coiled tentacles or having them all up in tentacruel's bell makes the most sense.

@@RenAsterion yeah, that one, I misspelled translucent or transparent, the point stays the same, the artists only draw that many details, so I can see them saying "you see the 8 big ones, the other 72 can be barely seen unless you're face-to-face". they're basically water bubbles, can't be easy to see water lines in more water

This also means that a hitmontop that doesn’t or can’t spin for some reason will have a comically large horn, as he notes, also similar to animals with continuously growing teeth/horns that can’t reduce their size through use

Yo that double entendre for Hydrapple is so creative hahah

It is, specifically, it is based on the "World Turtle".

It was actually that our world was carried by several elephants and THOSE were carried by a giant turtle.

Also it’s stellar form is the mysterious illustration from the books from Scarlet/Violet at the academy.

I believe you’re half-right. Certain civilizations did believe that the world was supported by a turtle in some way (it varies between cultures). The phrase “turtles all the way down” (which I’m pretty sure is exactly what stellar form Terapagos is referencing) is an expression of an infinite regress problem. Basically, if one were to ask why the world isn’t in free fall, another could posit that the world is on the back of a turtle, but to explain why that turtle isn’t also in free fall, one could use the same argument and say there’s another even larger turtle supporting the smaller one, and this could go on infinitely. The problem with infinite regress arguments is that they can end up being unhelpful and explaining nothing (or at least fail to provide a global explanation that explains everything cleanly), which can result in conclusions that are self-contradictory or logically unacceptable, which is akin to the definition of a paradox. Perhaps that’s why Terapagos’ time shenanigans of bringing the professor to Kitakami from the past leads to the discovery of Paradox Pokemon. Both paradoxes and infinite regress arguments can be forms of incoherent logic, tying Terapagos into the whole Paradox Pokémon plot line.

The myth of the world turtle is of Hindu origin. Certain Amerindian tribes also believed in a world turtle, without elephants of course.

In mystery dungeon rescue team there is a small scene/quest with smeargles.... one of them runs away from the pack because it did not want paw prints everywhere

@@viewer6152huh, neat! I guess they reused that idea for Spinda’s spot patterns.

I mean they do both benefit slowking and bro get psychic powers and shelter gets protection from predators and seemingly no longer has to eat

There's a word for when one benefits and is neutral to the other. I'm blanking on it, but an example is remora and sharks

@@brunette3cookieIt’s commensalism or something like that

@@Puppste you're right, it's commensalism.

Dont all pokemon vanish if you flee

​​@@hero-bo7qc no - they stay in the area, if they are overworld encounter.

@@mjm3091 i remember most pokemon just fading away after fleeing, unless that just happens because they're close to me and can't be encountered, like in the menu

@@hero-bo7qc that's usually how you save your Shinies. After running into them, you run, then you save, then you go back. Especially if it has Self-Destruct.

@@hero-bo7qc I think all wild Pokemon flee if you're in a union circle. But if you're offline, they stay there.

NO but also yes.

thats what im trying to say

Me too

Where is the BB Academy? Unova What is Unova based on? New York What is a nickname for the city of New york? *The Big Apple!!* And this connection to Unova stretches back to Dipplin! Candy Apples are an American delicacy, invented by an american. its appearance in Kitikami is because fall festivals sell them a lot. Their Shinies look like Caramel Apples

​@@TheHammerGuy94 ... How do we know it's in unova?

Like humans’ bones Except if we referred to number of bones as how many babies have and not an adults 206

This might be the case Because I swear I've seen Artwork of an 80 armed Tentacruel whose Tentacles were oddly thin

they're TEN tacles

I like to imagine they're like cat claws, concealed in the main body until it goes on the attack

If it can't go into a ball it's supernatural.

@@FubukiTheIcyKing all Pokemon trainers are supernatural confirmed

Not an answer but I feel like someone from the past would say the same thing looking at technology today

Animals are supernatural

Everybody gangsta till Meowth starts Talking...

Just like the Dex entry for Rattata as well

wait, two dex entrys connecting to greek myths. that is awsome

It also doesn't seem very practical to have an endless string leading to a permanent nest. Those strings would be everywhere

@@turdy_water7646yeah tho isn’t ariados sometimes shown as having webbed up a whole forest so it would make sense that it just spreads its web so wide

Why can’t syrpent be a combination of all three? It’s a serpentine wyrm that lives in a syrup covered apple

Also, it states that it resembles a modified terrakion, not that it is one

@@radosx1418since the dex entries of paradox pokemon on the game they came from also just say they resemble creatures/objects previously given the same name in that version’s expedition journal (the Scarlet/Violet book) (though perhaps notably, the paradox legendary trips have dex entries that don’t follow this trend 0_0), it’s easier to assume that it’s correct identification because of the similar wording that calls out only a resemblance.

Yes I remember yo Kai watch had one of those

Only some though cause some look way more humanoid cause the big ol nose

Maybe in an acient Hoenn, Shiftry looked like a bird lol

On top of the fact that Seedot (whose Dex entries claim it to be carried by bird or birdlike Pokémon) are literally its offspring!

Yeah. I believe that, since a Hitmontop sees its own horn as a vital part of its body, then it must sand it out often, like how Rattata has to gnaw at things to keep their teeth short.

That is what I figured when I heard that dex entry

Basically like trimming your fingernails

So older Tentacruel have thinner tentacles?

DBS Goku level intelligence

Nah whats it for

That's cool! :O Plus, it makes sense.

Beady lava fish go brrrrrr

Also Gimmighoul is born out of passion, stated specifically by it's Roaming Form's Scarlet entry.

@@ExcalibeonSwordofEeveelutions And it's linked with an object, being a coin!

Ok

Surprised you didn’t include Charcadet’s evolutions, mostly Ceruledge. It’s implied to have most likely formed from classic ghost unfinished business, though I personally find it more interesting to interpret it as specifically a lingering sense of failure on part of the person who died before completing their mission. Pairing that idea with the grudge it holds toward the living(which js mentioned in Bitter Blade’s move description) also makes it even more of a foil to Armarouge; both carry armor from people who have long since passed on, yet while Armarouge is known for its loyalty and capabilities, Ceruledge is defined more by the failure and early death of someone else than its own attributes. Can’t imagine anyone would be happy in that situation. I suppose in the format of your comment, Ceruledge could be seen as representing unfulfillment and bitterness, and is bound to a suit of armor. Armarouge, in turn, could represent contentedness, or even inner peace, also bound to a suit of armor, or possibly a funeral urn, as the armor resembles one in some of its animations. Personally I just think the duality of their dex entries and signature move descriptions is kinda funny. “This is a certified Friend and they can use their psychic powers to use their armor like a cannon, isn’t that fucking sick?” “This armor belonged to someone who died before completing their mission, and is steeped in grudges as a result. Huh? What about the Pokémon? Uhhh… Well, it’s got sword arms, and uh… Oh, and it’s really bitter toward the living. No idea why that could be though we’ve mostly just researched the owner of the armor and what they didn’t accomplish”

Now im imagining somebody saying Boo! To a Vikavolt and it just floating there for a solid three seconds before going AHHH!😱

This is really cool. I never thought about the speed stat like this

Or maybe its the speed of them performing the attack for example: ones like vikavolt need to prepare more before attacking while other like infernape need less time preparing an attack. Also regi-elecki attacks immediately without question tbh.

Similarly, the Shiftry entry references Tengu. They're both nods towards the mythological Japanese creatures that inspired these evolution lines.

@@gengarzilla1685 always neat so see or hear about the earlier gens history or reasons for their designs, unfortunately these newer mon designs have kinda shifted but some of them are still pretty neat

Cool

I also likes that it says a michevious child since Kappa are depicted as devious little prankster (Ps, idk what devious means it just felt right to put it there)

People say there is nothing more dangerous than an injured animal - I tend to disagree. Going near a mother and her young can be the last thing you ever do. Even the most peacefull species will go to lenghts to protect their offspring.

I mean he’s not wrong it is an old word for dragon. But yes the modern term is used for legless dragons and thus the funny worm in apple becomes wyrm in apple

wyrm does also refer to really old dragons though

Oh that’s cool

The practice of categorizing dragons into different types based on morphology with specific names for each one has zero historical basis. It's just a thing made up by super nerds pretending to be smart. Wyrm is just an old word for dragon.

@@Celestia282 Yeah, I mean Tolkien uses wyrm to describe Smaug (a dragon with 4 legs and 2 wings), and he's a giant language nerd.

beeg Minior fan here, but I def caught 6\7 forms just in the chargestone cave. And saw my Pokedex update while auto battling them looking for a shiny (indicating the last form). My last one was the Blue, but I found much, much more orange and yellow in the cave and not as much blue/indigo\green as I'd think. I can agree the colours may be favoured in certain areas, but I'm sure all of them are available everywhere with certain preference.

I thought it was based on the red swamp crayfish.

I'm still baffled that we now know that Dodrio has 3 hearts and 3 sets of lungs, one per head. Even if the Dodrio line are basically mutated to have multiple heads, how the crap does 3 hearts and 3 sets of lungs in one body work!?

It's never been confirmed, but it's pretty clear that the speed stat refers to effective combat speed, not top movement speed. The Pokemon world is weird, but I don't think that anything with a speed stat over 100 is running around at mach speeds.

​@@Celestia282 or how Vikavolt's entries say it flies at the fast pace yet has a lower speed stat than Grubbin, it own pre evolution

​@@peternguyen7530One body can accomodate multiple hearts and lungs, if it has the space, and for conjoint twins/triplets(in this case), with some malformation it is posible and likely that they will have multiple of the most vital organs, and because of that sometimes one of the conjoint twins can die before the others and it's posible to sergically remove the pre dominant twins at an early age, but if the dominant twin were to die for some reason, the others will die also. Atleast that's what I know about conjoint twins, but do take this with a grain of salt from a physics major. As far as dodrio goes, I think it does have the space for the specified organs. Also there was a irl case where a conjoint twin had two sets of everything except a body (that is head, hands, legs, hearts, not lungs), but they didn't survive for long. Try not to think about any weird imagery, and have a good day.

@@Celestia282reaction time not running. Speed

I never thought of that

Smart idea

I kinda assumed each tentacle we see is actually a tube filled with ten thin tentacles each.

Yeah either this or it just has a bunch more tentacles stored up and it's center mass that we don't get to see

I thought the tentacles hide somewhere in its body. So that whenever a Tentacruel’s tentacle gets chopped off one of the tentacles would grow back in its place. Like how a hydra would regrow its heads. The tentacles could be stored in the center mass like the above comment said. ⬆️

​@@creativeprovocateur001my thought is that maybe translations are a bit off and it doesn't mean tentacles persay rather stingers(yes jellyfish have thousands) so much like tentacles can grab things so can stingers with jellyfish and the purpose in translation is just a bit weird

My tentacruel tentacle theory is that the other 72 tentacles are just hidden

It's Japanese name is イイネイヌ (iineinu). いいね (iine) means "it's good, isn't it?" and 犬 (inu) means dog

you mean Dewott

POKEMONNNNNNNNN

POKEMONNNNNN GOTTA CATCH EM ALLL!!!!

@@user-mp8ip5pr9mGOTTA CATCH EM‘ ALLL

Nice

Cool

Damn

ancient people believed that the Earth is flat and lies on Elefants that stand on a shell of a giant turtle in space

Why would it leave a thread and never follow it?

@@RennHans It may not be a choice. It could just be a thread that is always being excreted and sticks to the nest, and thanks to Ariados' sun entry, we know that the string might be strong enough to stay up forever. A baby spinerak might imidietly run away when born, as the line is based off of the joro spider, and female joro spiders often eat there mates and children, and do to the lazy nature of the pokemon, the mother might not follow the strand.

Hm

I love its Scarlet entry, too, mainly because I kind of predicted it. I have a Cinderace OC named Pyrostrike, who is *exactly* like Cinderace's Scarlet entry. He got that short fuse, yet he battles valiantly for the trainer he trusts, Clare, who always promises to make him stronger as their life together goes by. This dex entry just adds that extra charm to my favourite Pokemon and I love it even more.

As a Pokemon Unite player, i can confirm that Cinderace players have very short fuses. One death and they're afk

@@yaboipktendo Okay, never thought I'd see a Unite reference here. However, as a Cinderace main myself I can confirm that while I might have a short fuse at times, though I don't have the nerve to completely throw the game. Instead, anger only feeds my lust for blood as a Cinderace main. I mean this in the sense that I would most certainly be happy knocking out the opponents' Pokemon and scoring all their hard-earned points in their face as an act of vengeance and in an act of winning the game. I do not only play Cinderace, however, as I have found recent enjoyment in slapping for crits as Azumarill and playing my second favourite starter, Meowscarada. Most may play to score more points than their enemies, but I play to rip and tear the opposition apart so that they can't score back. Welcome to My Life As A Fire Rabbit. Please laugh at my comment.

@@ToadetteTails6969 Finally, a Cinderace player who has understandable goals, a true Master of the Rabbit

@@yaboipktendo the pain of a new ranked season... all the cinderace/mewtwo/zacian players going afk and spam pinging after ONE death x -x

And then rayquaza swoops in and eats them like fruit loops. Kinda neat they made Rayquaza Minior's natural predator, makes sense

@@pocketfan2524 I mean, to him they’re basically konpetio (the thing starbits from Mario galaxy are based on) lol 😂

I love Galarian Slowking's entries together. He's the drug maker AND the dealer; yet not even he knows what the f*** he's making or doing. In short: Despite his Psychic-Type, he's an idiot.

@@ToadetteTails6969 The Slowking in Glarian Slowking is a zombie, so it makes sense how not even it knows what it's drugs can do.

For the rhypherior thing, I think it’s intelligence is between rhydon and rhyhorn. It is smart enough to know its territory unlike rhyhorn, partially because it can’t run around like rhyhorn can, and it is less intelligent than rhydon because of that immobility. It is not sessile but moves as it needs to such as to eat or fight.

Well is the shellder fainting still counts as it being benefited?

I guess you can say it’s a toxic relationship.

What about Ash-greninja? Who has a whole water suriken on its back. That thanks to this entry is made out of Mucus

@@ashyflameI can sorta accept it due to it being a frog & that's part of its biology. I mean we've already accepted with Greninja having its long tongue wrapped around its neck as a scarf; just adding this to it just seems more realistically understanding in a way

I did not know that haha. Swampert is my fav starter but I also love the name Laglarge and feel it could work so well

And likely also spelled the way it is because Syrupent is already the name of a Viva Piñata creature and therefore probably trademarked
