The Pokémon Iceberg EXPLAINED! | It's DARKER Than You Think! 

Okay Melody's kisses to Ash in 2000 don't count, there's no meaning behind them. They were just there to tick off Misty, that's why I don't count those. SwSh were also the first new generation main series games. I should have used better wording my b.

“The Pokémon iceburg is darker than you think!” What’s so dark about Avalugg??

Fun fact: Gen 1 was supposed to have 190 Pokémon. But due to a limit error, the OG 151 Pokémon stayed while the other 39 were brought to Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal.

Great video. With the whole Porygon incident, the Pokemon itself had been banned from being on an episode pretty much ever again. It's weird and makes zero sense considering Pikachu was the one that jumped did his thunderbolt which caused the flashing lights. Poor Porygon.

Fun fact: delta species have been a concept in a few fan games and was likely a factor in regional forms

Please make a video about "Moves Pokemon should've been able to learn". It talks about moves that not only make sense for some Pokemon to learn, but also will help immensely for the Pokemon's viability in either casual playthrough or competitive. For example, Wailord should've been able to learn Stockpile. Not only it makes sense, since blue whales devour a lot of food at once, but it also would help increase its bulk significantly, and with diverse movepools like Earthquake and Bounce, Wailord could be very good at least in playthroughs.

Another fact about "Electric Soldier Porygon", 4Kids actually did complete their dub of the episode, including toning down the infamous scene considerably to the point it wouldn't cause any harm, but the damage was already done at that point and the episode was still banned worldwide even with the scene heavily censored. The one and only time 4KIds used their censorship for good instead of evil, and it was the one time even 4Kids-level censorship wasn't enough.

#dark. I've been a fan of the series for almost 30 years now and there's some stuff I didn't even know. excellent job mystic

Man being 24 the younger kids don’t understand how legendary and iconic these concepts were. Such a Great series that I’m so Happy to understand the longevity of!

‘Pokémon Sword and Shield were the first main-series Pokémon games to be released on the Nintendo Switch.’ LGPE: *What do I look like? A spin-off?*

Discovering/capturing all of the Regis was one of my greatest achievements.

In Agatha's defense, there was only one Ghost-Type line in Gen I, so not like she had many options as a Ghost specialist. Same with Lance. Lance's case gets worse in Gen II when there was only one new Dragon-Type and it became his cousin's ace, essentially barring him from using Kingdra.

I once read that Jynx, Electabuzz and Magmar were supposed to be the initial Legendary Trio with Scyther and Pinsir also being semi Legendary

Christina Aguilera - Miracle was so memorable part of the end of the first movie, I still remember it so vividly even after so many years since I have seen or heard the end of the movie

So much knowledge Ahhhhhh I hope if I studied this hard for my exams. That would have gotten me better grades but this knowledge provides my heart with joy and satisfaction

To go into every generation hints at the next one, this is definitely more anime applicable cause it happens every series, but the games are less comparable with Gen 1 and 2 not really doing much outside their own formula.

Sweet thanks for everything you do!!!! Love you Collab videos. Keep doing the great work.

this was super awesome, I was surprised to see things I didn't know before!

Pokemon is so huge that this entire list is just the point of the iceberg

bless your soul, it's a long iceberg video

Bro im not typing #dark . Annoying tactic

I’m so happy insults like “you’re a poopoo diaper baby” are being used

can we appreciate how iconic wobbuffet is

Me just now figuring out pallet town is named after an art pallet

Gen 5 and Gen 7 had the best things in them I love both

The luckiest I've gotten with Spinda was two Shinies in three hordes while hunting Skarmory.

So where is the dark part of this?

65-min Pokemon video at the start of a work day? Oh hellz yes. EDIT: #Dark

Also the reason why Agatha had Poison-type Pokémon on her team was because back in generation 1, the only Ghost-type Pokémon was the Gastly line (which are also part Poison type).

Is there a timeskip to get past the meme entries? For example, Meowth can talk entry, is literally just about that Meowth can talk, like, yes, anyone can see this, but good information for an entry like this would be when en where Meowth learned to speak the human language as we know this information.

Well, looks like I’m taking an extended lunch break 😂

Nice video mystic

Merry Christmas Mystic

YESSSSSS SOMETHING TO LISTEN TO AT WORK!!!!!

#Dark great video man!

Man I need a lot of snacks for this one

Let's go were 1st mainline Pokemon Games on Switch. Pokemon Evolutions further confirm it is mainline.

now thats a real iceberg

Idk why I thought the first several entries of the iceberg from the start of the video was gonna get darker than I thought it would be. 😅

In Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX are Shinys. If you lucky enough you can recruit some.

The railroad tracks part, I don't like the concepts in those movies since if there are tracks there are trains. Trains do not stop if you are in front of them because they can't and will kill you.

This sounds like a class project

50:17 that hello kitty tho

This was the most milk toast iceberg of Pokemon I've ever seen. "Celebrities also like Pokemon" NO. SHIT.

#Dark love your videos bro 🔥

The bad egg made Tubbo cry

#dark awesome video man!

Actually ashes pikachu can't physically evolve because as shown even back during one of its raichu recoveries (i don't remember which one) it can g-max and the few pokemon that can g-max before their final evolution can't evolve normally

“porygon gave children seizures” correction: PIKACHU gave children seizures

keep up the good work #dark

#Dark Loved the vid, its a good listen to while I am playing genshin while watching it

The Lets Go games were actually the first mainline pokemon games on the Nintendo Switch.

56:11 Lillie: “I’m a strong trainer.”

Im pretty sure Blue released the Rattacate and just stalks us

Hey mystic when will you do a no restrictions team for Pokémon heartgold and soulsilver, red and blue, black and white 2, and ultra sun and moon

#dark great vid bro keep it up

In mystery dungeon dx you can get shiny Pokémon

Isn’t the Let’s Go games the first main series Pokémon games in the Switch? Or do they not count considering they are remakes?

#Dark, I'm one layer from the bottom.

Much like kanto, most of johtos cities also have colors to them, so it's like johto has a color and a plant theme Cherry Violet Gold Beige Olive Cyan Mohogony Black

Great video Also in recent years, Nintendo kinda has a thing against First and second party rpgs Just think about it can’t be a coincidence that Alphadream (the best 2nd party developer for Nintendo that made rile playing games) and the release of pokemon Sword/Shield (probably one of the worst role playing games ever made and the game that killed the reputation of gamefreak and pokemon The thing is Nintendo probably intentionally made pokemon SS bad to kill reputation for rpgs and maybe forced alphadream to release the Bowsers inside story remake at the worst time possible Given that 2 of the most devastating blows to Nintendo rpgs happened in only the timespan between October and November of 2019

Love the deep dive 💯 #dark

#dark That was awesome, I love videos like this.

#Dark here’s some that could’ve been added: Pokemon teasers, the first three Pokémon teasers has had some interesting scenes that was totally different compared to the final movies.

15:02 ...Professor Ivy? ...but yeah in game, Juniper. Edit: 20:40 but still

Cyrus didn't create Hisui that theory has been disproven once Legends Arceus came out

Ikue Otani voices another popular anime mascot in the form of the Straw-Hats doctor Tony-Tony Chopper

This may be stretching it a bit, but I'm kinda thinking the next region might be based in India. In Pokemon Legends, Raichu's Pokedex makes a reference to the "capable of taking down an Indian elephant" line from Raichu's original dex entry. But the funny thing is that it replaces the Indian elephant part with Copperajah. And the professor says that Copperajahs are native to his region. This could just be referencing Galar, but the Galarian Pokedex also says how Copperajahs actually come from another region. So the professor might come from, and be referencing another region possibly based on India.

Hot take: Porygon did nothing wrong. Pikachu was the one to fire the lightning that blew up the missiles, which gave kids seizures. Porygon was just the scapegoat. Also, fun fact: Koffing/Weezing, Grimer/Muk and Trubbish/Garbodor are all based of different forms of pollution. Koffing and Weezing are based on smog/air pollution, Grimer and Muk are based on oil-spills/water pollution and Trubbish and Garbodor are based on garbage/land pollution.

Ive seen that raichu in a daycare years ago.

People think way to far into ashes age, like what other cartoon/ anime do people question it? , never question Kaiba been the same age , bart simpson never getting older n hes defo out aged ash , peter griffin never getting older , spongebob and patrick too .. list goes on ..

Melody was ash's first kiss, wasn't she? In 2000?

That was really *dark*

#Dark. Awesome video.

Protomario is name I haven’t heard in a while

I actually own that black gold star charzard. It's the pride and joy of my collection

First Pokémon games on Switch: Sword and Shield Let’s Go says what?!

With Zarude being based off a baboon and its movie Secrets of the Jungle being similar to Tarzan, I think Gen 9 could take place in Africa. Also because you said so #Dark

The head Director of Pokémon, Satoshi Tajiri, favorite Pokémon is Poliwag

#Dark I've always like the theory of the mythical pokemon being a hint towards the next gen.

#dark we definitely getting gen 9

I really hope that gen 9 will be set in Italy because of Jojo part 5 being in Italy

This One Included

Can we have a video about Pokémon types that don’t make sense? Like how Lugia is NOT A WATER DUAL TYPE????

Does anyone know the location of the audio clip at 1:02? It is literally driving me crazy that I can't recall where it's from!

#dark :)) great video

Whats the purpose of having Mew in the first game if you can only encounter it with a glitch. I haven't played in over 15 years so if I sound really stupid please let me know.

Squirtle's hands are the darkest part of the series, no creepypasta can make up for them hands, like WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THOSE?

I still have my Dialga stylus. Never opened it.

i only caught this the second time i watched it but it's at 55:27 ... why??? that caught me so off guard lol edit: spelling

Look at this town it's made of mahogany. Mahogany

U are still great

Is this an iceberg video or just pokemon facts?

#dark it took about 49 minutes for the iceberg to tell me something I didn't know

My theory is that Mew created Arceus, then Arceus created the universe, and then Mew created all the Pokémon.

Cubones head looks more like a charizards head.

Nice video also #dark

Never been this early before

#dark love this kind of content

I thought Rhydon was the first drawn Pokemon.. why did you say it has all DNA like mew?..
