Unrelated but I’m glad that maxwell (I think that’s his name) featured more heavily in this video, he makes your videos better and I think your “spinoff” videos (your non Pokémon explained videos) could be improved with the inclusion of maxwell (if it wasn’t obvious I don’t really care for your spinoff videos, mainly because of the way they’re written, they just don’t flow very well so it feels like the video is speedrunning to get to the end which is bad imo [sorry if I was a bit harsh just trying to offer some constructive criticism]) Edit: I’m specifically talking about your weird pokemon merch videos
Honestly, it should cause confusion. I think the reason it causes paralysis is cause the effects make more sense. Like, if someone was fighting you and they just… licked you, there’s a pretty decent chance you’re just gonna be wondering why they did that, hence why it skips the Pokémon’s turn.
"It says here you helped film videos with Lockstin, what did that entail?" "Well one video I sat in the corner and hit the Nut button at random as he talked about licking things."
Not to mention the Bac.teria ridden mouths of animals like Large Reptiles. Just coming in contact with their Saliva is grounds for washing and disinf.ecting.
7:17 Not gonna lie.... The nut button was hilarious.... The comedic timing was top tier, haven't laughed so hard at a pokemon video in years. definitely been liking the style change after elsagate.. keep it up!
I remember back in 6th grade the kid next to me randomly licked my arm. Gotta say confusion fits a lot more than paralysis. It's been nearly a decade since and I still haven't forgotton it. Middle school's a wild time.
For the dogs, it's sorta the opposite effect. A dog licking you is an intimate sign of affection and often that is reflected by the dog jumping on you and not just giving one lick, but multiple, slobbery licks that either leave the receiver stunned in disgust or affection. "I will turn you into poop!" And, "I have collera now!" Got me good! 😂😂😂 No Maxil, you are a wonderful gift upon this chanel. Never change.
The whole sword-licking meme always reminds me of The Hero Yoshihiko and the Devil King’s Castle and the guy with the poison knives. "I probably shouldn't have licked them."
Any Pokemon that can learn Lick canonically has a very long tongue, by the move's very description. This checks out for Lickitung's line & anything else that explicitly includes the feature, as well as all the ghosts, frogs, bears and dogs. ...And then there's Incineroar. :3c
I always assumed it was because the tongue was so large and/or forceful, it was basically like a steamroller. I imagined a cartoon-like large-tongued Haunter snapping your spine because their tongue pushed too hard.
As the one person who actually likes Jynx, it terrifies me to know that Jynx can learn Lick Edit: Also I thought Jynx was based on the Yama-Uba and Smoochum was based on Kintaro
That third reason given at the beginning of the episode, made me physically stop in the middle of the sidewalk and just stare at the screen and bewilder.
They really looked at Greninja's design and said: "This design is just....missing something. I mean, missing something isn't it?" "..." "Hmmm, hey stick your tongue out real quick." 🤣🤣🤣
I always just imagined that they aren't ACTUALLY paralyzed, they are just FUNCTIONALLY paralyzed because they are brainlocked from the fact that their opponent just leaked them for no reason and it's freaking/creeping them out.
10:41 And then there's Pukei-Pukei from Monster Hunter: World that literally uses its tongue as a club in an attempt to batter the hunter into submission
