It really is incredible how many of the early pokemon are just normal animals with a letter switched out

48:39 it’s pronounce “Dart-trix” not “day-trix” redo the whole video

Farfetch is actually based on a proverb, of something being unlikely but helpful (Farfetched) that it is like a duck coming to you carrying a leek ready to be cooked with it

That "...and Baphomet" caught me off guard

This gives me a lot more appreciation for pokemon I wasnt a huge fan of before

my favorites pokemons are Koffing, Weezing and clefable (in the first geracion)

FAT LADY TOOK ME OUT

4:43 it is called Dila [Dee-La] which means 'tongue' in Tagalog. A creature of the night which uses its long ahh tongue to feed on fetuses/pregant ladies.

For Arceus you should’ve just said: Llama and God.

When someone is in doubt when creating a moodboard, I’ll show them this video

16:28 LMAO the third photoooo that’s hella funny

Thanks for making this video!

I have no idea about Pokémon so if I close my eyes he is just saying random words with no connection

8:52 and I think mewto should be also based on the earlier Nintendo villain Giygas from the Mother 1.

39:42 pawniard - pawn chess piece Bisharp - bishop chess piece

28:51 nice bangs, fox

Actually an incredibly interesting video. Must have taken a long time to do the voice over + all the research. Awesome work

Jinx: “Al Jolson”

Pikachu is surely based on a Pika?

Re: Squakabilly- Thats a reference to rockabilly culture, which is/was a thing in japan! (as well as other places ofc)

at tranquill 32:55 i was very scared ahahahah

31:17 TEPIIIIIG

I’m pretty sure half of these are just nonsense you think go together…

Coil ingot My favorite fish

I thought this video was about cooking Pokémon

Voltorb and electrode are actually based on mimics from Ttrpgs

I like that most are just one or 2 animals then you have abomonations like slow bro and Magmar lmao

The snuck in jokes and references tho 😭😭😭

Great video truly I feel like the production could definitely be better and gain more views. Things that are the same inspiration you could put them together, example: “pokemon a b and c are inspired by ____”. You could also instead of reading it off as if it were a bullet point system you could read them off as a full sentence, example “Ekans are based off of the Indian cobras, kakunas are based off literal cocoons” it fleshes out the content a little more. Truly a great concept on this video tho I wish more people talked about it in glad you spoke on this 💯

Dude sounds like he's about to have a panic attack

This list completely ignores most of the canon inspirations

“opera singer, fat lady, nordic viking woman”

the deep breaths. <3

Also 16:27 ludicolo is also the embodiment of a maraca

This is an epic video 🎉 But also you can really tell he pulled some of these reference from his a55 😂😂

Dewgong without the real dugong?

Ashley in the thumbnail 👀

23:21 we fuckin got him

33:20 MALPHITE

the video deserves everything from youtube !!

I thought venonat was based off of gnats

alakazam being based off the devil, caught me wayyy the fuck off guard

The fact that you couldn’t see similarities between Dewgong and the real life dugong made me stop watching and 👎 this video

Didn't even show the correct caterpillar for caterpi

I liked the part where he said Possibly Moon rabbit

Why are you pronouncing so many of them wrong 😭 I can’t tell if it’s intentional or not

Charmeleon is probably Chameleons
