Typhlosion wholesomeness you didn't know you needed: in Typhosion's pokedex entry it said that. Typhlosion leads the spirits of those who died to the afterlife. Which also means if it's trainer dies, it will go with them to the After life and stay with its trainer so they can be together forever.
Now that I think about it, the Miss Fortune Sisters are also the only trainers in the game who follow the "lock eyes with a trainer and you must battle them" rule that often interrupts your journey! How didn't I notice that before??
If you go to the photo studio and take a picture with Kamado, he will mention that his Galarian armour was actually a gift from someone. So that kinda puts a hole in the theory that he's from Galar, although it doesn't outright deconfirm it.
Could be a gift from Laventon, since he is DEFINITELY Galarian with that Victorian-esque outfit of his, while Kamado dresses more like a traditional japanese.
@@MrKlausbaudelaire Laventon comes from the original region of copperajah, and copperajah is also a foreign pokemon in galar, so it comes from another region
@@mrsalami8352 well when you think about the history between India and UK, it kinda makes sense, although the game do have some galarian hints such as his blackboard being written in the same letters as the ones used in Galarian writting in sword/shield as well as the stock brittish expressions in his vocabulary.
Some corrections: * Ingo and Anabel aren't the only fallers (people who felt from a dimensional right and lost their memories) as Looker also became a faller in ORAS, its really easy to miss tho an there's absolutely no plot involving it. * You dont need to beat the game to listen to the pokemon theme in the title screen.
That third one is definitely not right. I had completed every request and mission a bit before the update came out and that request was not available at all. It was a random extra request that was added in the update, like the coronet highlands balloon minigame.
@@TheRedSmarty I remember very soundly that I completed that request before beating the story (and daybreak came after thay) daybreak only added the post game mass outbreaks and path of solitude quests
I just checked the numbering and that request is number 103, coming after the Massive Mass Outbreak storyline requests from 95-102. So, it had to have been added in the update otherwise the numbering would not have made any sense before the update. It might not necessarily be a post-game request though.
In my knowledge, the number 108 is often associated with ghostly aspects in the Chinese and Japanese culture, I have seen this number in other places relating to ghosts before, so it could be a pure coincidence, but this is a regional Typhlosion after all so maybe they do have something related. On the other hand, Hisuian Typhlosion's signature move Infernal Parade is known as "百鬼夜行", which literally translates to "Hundred ghosts night parade". Could also be a reference to this.
That is correct, actually; the number 108 is connected with several things in Indian religions (including Buddhism, which is highly influential throughout East Asia, including Japan). It's also a reference to the 108 Stars of Destiny (the reincarnations of demons said to have repented of their evil ways) in the novel "Water Margin", if memory serves.
If I recall correctly, it has to do with Buddhism, with the purging of 108 temptations of humanity to reach a more enlightened state. I was hoping Hoops would mention this, but I think this might warrant a video of its own, and how Spiritomb and Typhlosion are associated with it.
The Hyakki Yakō is also a Japanese legend where at night all kinds of spirits, ghost, and ghouls come out to march the streets. If you're outside during it than you'll be spirited away come morning.
I think the Johto Theory stands with Kamado not only because of Gyarados, but also because of the crafting system. Kurt and pokeballs using apricorns to catch Pokémon. The origins of Pokémon catching seems to originate from the Johto region and you begin the “first” Pokédex of Hisui/Sinnoh. In order to complete it, you need to catch Pokémon for study. Also, because of the time period trade for pokeballs and the knowledge couldn’t have spread far and wide amongst the other regions we see to date. So Kamado with his traditional Kimono(remember the kimono girls from Johto?) makes heavy implications that he came from Johto. Also the buildings in Jubilife do remind one of Ecruteak city where the kimono girls are located.
Furthermore, in the Japanese version of the game, when Kamado loses his composure, he adopts an accent that comes from the Japanese region Johto is based on.
For Kamado, there's nothing that stops the idea that Kamado himself was from Johto and his wife from Galar. Perhaps his would-be wife moved from Galar to Johto, then later married Kamado, and somewhere along the way, giving him the "traditional Galarian armor". For me specifically, I find it weird that Kamado and Beni could originally be from Galar. I don't know about you, but I'm not sold on the idea of people with clearly Japanese-sounding names happening to be born in a region based on the UK without some sort of Japanese-based ancestry. Heck, Beni is a ninja. That's not a thing outside of Japan.
My headcanon for it is that Kamado is from Johto but, had an opportunity to train in the galarian army, where he got the armor and likely met his wife while there. Then, it could even be possible that the destruction of his hometown in Johton could have even happened while he was gone. Which would explain why he is so worried about failing to protect his people. Maybe he blames himself for his town's destruction because he thinks he could have prevented it had he not abandoned his people.
Now I really want to know Kamado's story. Perhaps he trained in the Isle of Armor and fell in love with a noble Galarian lady, whose father opposed their marriage because Kamado was not a Galarian nobility, but after Kamado proving himself worthy, the father allowed Kamado to marry his daughter and gifted Kamado the traditional Galarian armor.
@@kerrywien6775 They aren't the evil team, they just live in the wild and like to upset people. I think we should move on, evil teams aren't necessary sometimes. I'd be happy if the next game doesn't have it. I'm tired of the same structure over and over and I think Game Freak is too, the last evil teams were a parody because of that, I guess
@@antoniorivas9820 I feel like we’ve been getting deeper plots that don’t rely on evil teams with newer gens. This is a good thing, because believe you me, I’m tired of the same team rocket BS over and over again.
Kamado having his village destroyed by Gyarodos would explain why Sanqua was told to engrave Magikarp for the Galaxy Building even though she wanted to make Gyarodos
I find it unlikely trainers decided to copy what some rather inconsequential bandits accidentally did. Rather it seems like monetary rewards for winning trainer battles would be a natural consequence of pokemon training becoming a common career path and major part of the economy rather than just a hobby or rare domain of eccentrics.
Who can really say? You know, expiration dates in America were only put into play because of Al Capone. One person started the whole Expiration Date on not only milk, but every other food item. Same goes for the extra seal put onto medicine, vitamins and other food items thanks to one psycho who had poisoned a few bottles of medicine (think it was aspirin). So, there is a high possibility that word got out of these bandits leaving nuggets, and so the tradition began. Sorry for the long response. Edit: BUT, not saying you are wrong, it could be either reason really.
There is extra diolgue postgame from Sanqua after you do everything. She will show you a photo that suggests the rifts and Ultra Wormholes are the same thing. Apparently the professor showed it to her and was going about it being the result of a bunch of universes overlapping. I believe she said she painted what is beyond the rift. In Lillycove museum there is a picture of Arceus. It says it is a picture painted a long time ago from the artist's imagination, just as she painted the one in PLA.
After hearing about Hisuian Typhlosion's entries, I dug a bit deeper. It also mentions its flames can also purify spirits, so the spirits can return to the afterlife. And that's what makes me love Hisuian Typhlosion even more.
I always thought of the money thing as like a way of saying, "Please don't kill me with your Pokemon now that I can't defend myself... here, take some money!"
What if Typhlosion preys on Spiritomb. It said that Typhlosion has the ability to eat evil spirits and send them to afterlife. Maybe Typhlosion hunts down Spiritomb to not only to consume it but also to release all the trapped spirits inside it.
Perhaps they are like poison dart frogs who get their toxicity from their food but made all the spiritomb in the area go extinct by eating them all thus loosing their ghost type, after the years the numbers of spiritomb could have increased and by the time they did the typhosion could have found a different food source thus spiritomb no longer being part of their diet
Watiasec. The Magikarp statues on the Galaxy Building were originally supposed to be Gyarados statues. I'm pretty certain you talk to someone that says that that was the original intent, but then the plan got changed. I don't remember if they said who prevented them from making the Gyarados statues, but maybe it could've come from KAMADO who wouldn't want the Pokemon that destroyed his hometown to be displayed in the village!
After I battled Kamado in the post game on prelude beach he states that Hisui should be called Sinnoh. I find it really interesting that Kamado is the one who ended up calling Hisui/Sinnoh Sinnoh
My first games were gen 5, and I like to think that I'm a Unovan traveling the pokemon world and the only time travelers in legends being the player and Ingo from Unova fits my narrative really well
Lake of rage is in northern Johto , the Sinnjoh ruins are a ways north of that ,it’s said that that place came to be as a meeting point between sinnoh and Johto . Kommodo is from Johto
There's a theory that I've recently discovered that I am one hundred percent getting behind regarding Hisuian Zorua and Mustard, and that is that Zorua/Zoroark (Not Hisuian Zorua) was the Pokemon that Mustard had lost and eventually caused his retirement, but in his old age Mustard "accidentally" hints at Hisuian Zorua's existence. If you look at Mustard's hair when his hat is off, it strongly resembles the tuft of hair that sits on top of Hisuian Zorua's head. It's not uncommon for trainers to bare a resemblance to Pokemon in some way especially with what we saw in Sun and Moon with the Ultra Beasts, so I'm going out on a limb and saying that Mustard's old friend was of the Zorua line, given that we can tell in his Rare League Card that his hair used to be darker, but the end was still red given how it's a different shading to the rest of his hair on his Rare League Card. How this relates to Hisuian Zorua is that when Mustard got older, the base of his hair turned white but the end remained red, similar to the Hisuian variant, but in a little darker of a way, it also represents how the two are alike on an emotional level. The only reason that the Hisuian form exists is because the standard Zorua died out after being shunned from their home of origin, and came back in that white, ghostly form. The same could kinda be said for Mustard, as it'd be pretty reasonable that he'd metaphorically die on the inside once he lost his partner Pokemon, and might speed up the process of his hair going white. This is all just very wild speculation but I thought it'd help to put this out in the world for people to see potentially.
I honestly don't think the red, blue, and white basculin are a reference to the American Flag because a lot of countries in the world have red, white and blue flags including France and the UK both of which have also been Pokemon regions.
@@Siimbba Your point? Are any red and white pokemon in a japanese region are a reference to the Japanese flag? No, they aren't. Because that would be lazy. It is more likely a reference to the fact that real world striped bass tend to be shades of silvery blue, silvery white, and rusty brownish red. By focusing on the unlikely less interesting thing you miss out on probably the real more interesting thing.
Or the fact that Red, White, and Blue have all been considered "colors of death" at certain points and locations in history leaning into the fact they evolution is a ghost type. Which makes even more sense since in some Asian cultures including Japanese white is the color not only of death, but of the journey to and from the realm of the dead.
Here's another Easter egg: Grandtree Arena eventually becomes the Old Chateau. This is because you get the Insect Plate there in dp and BDSP games outside. And you get the Insect Plate from Kleavor after defeating it in the same area :) Interestingly, this would make more sense to say The Heartwood is the in-game equivalent to Eternal Forest, since it's also where the Old Chateau is located within
Isn't eterna forest north of oreburgh I don't think it's grand tree just because oreburgh tunnel is to the north of grand tree and it's smart and makes sense but geologically isn't it a different area I think somewhere near the bottom left of cornet highlands is probably closer to where eterna city would be located plus you can find rotom in cornet highlands too I think it would make sense for it to be placed somewhere around there
I noticed there was something going on with the Misfortune Sisters dropping gold after the battles, but I was trying to figure out if they were from some wealthy family and who could that family be tied to in the modern era. But your point was very interesting and I fully believe that's the case now. Nice lore construction and nice catch on getting that. Please do another video! This game is fascinating.
The reference to 108 might also have something to do with Japanese Buddhist practices where, at the end of the year, a bell is rung 108 times. The 108 number represents the number of earthly temptations (Kleshas or Bonno) one must overcome to achieve nirvana. Similarly in Tibetan Buddhism, mala beads are worn with 108 beads, symbolizing the words of the Buddha written across 108 volumes. I also know that, as HH Jan pointed out as well, Typhlosion's Infernal Parade move in Japanese is literally named for "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons." Both a mythological parade or riot of demons through the street at night, but also a modern idiom for the concept of pandemonium.
Thanks for the info! I was foggy on the details, but I knew it had to do with Buddhism and the 108 temptations. Infernal Parade being a direct reference to the march of demons is super cool!
A secret I found in Arceus that rarely people actually see is if you catch a shiny Pokémon and it’s your FIRST Pokémon of that kind the picture in the Dex that shows up is it’s shiny version not it’s original version. You can’t even switch out the pictures like you can if you catch a shiny of a Pokémon you already have. It’s like you assume that the shiny version is it’s base version and I think that’s really cool. I found this out with catching my first shiny Bonsly recently.
Another fun fact about Sanqua is that her closet has a suit with a cape in it, so this implies that she might not only like to play dress up, but she is the ancestor to Clair as well. Which would make her Lance's ancestor to. In other words this implies Karen is related to both Clair and Lance.
Coal is organic material that comes from dead plant and animal life. Oreburgh city is the heartwood. It caused deforestation and scyther in the area went extinct, same with kleavor.
One final thing about Legends Arceus actually reference something which happens to something that we should talk about and not argue or ignore which would be the PokeBall that the Red Chain becomes in Legends Arceus which actually references a distinct ball that we see all the time that been unobtainable but had been the very ball that contains the event Pokemon in the previous games with that being the Cherish Ball that contains the event Pokemon from the events that you get upon their release like Zeraora from Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon via event codes. I mean if you look at the Red Chain Ball closely it has a black circle and the whole ball is all red just like the Cherish Ball icon that you see on your event Pokemon which the Cherish Ball does appear when you send out your event Pokemon in battle as well
For the typhlosion thing, there is an interesting line in the pokedex which says its flames are actually purifying lost spirits. So perhaps typhlosion does have a connection to spiritomb cus its trying to purify the spirits that were released from the keystone? The kamado thing about being from the lake of rage, i could see it as it matches up with the story and beni being a ninja would make more sense coming from johto instead of galar. There could also be a hint in the fact there are magikarp statues on the roof of the headquarters which were originally gonna be garados. But there's still issues with this being that kamado is wearing "traditional galarian armor", if he was from johto and he cared about honoring traditions like ceremonial armor, he wouldnt claim armor and traditions from a region that wasnt his own. Also there's the issue of laventon being highly theorised as the ancestor of leon and hop, and the fact there's a statue of galarian wheezing on the headquarters If anything, he seems to have connections to both galar and johto so i could guess that perhaps he originally came from galar with laventon and settled in johto. Made a life with his wife and met beni here, then the lake of rage happened and so they all moved up to hisui?
It's likely his wife was from Galar. Wearing it into battle seems to me like a tribute to his departed love. He may also wear it as he believes she still protects him. Something like that.
I found another easter egg during Daybreak. Mai reveals that she is actually Adaman's sister, which means that Adaman is also related to Marley, though he is likely not her direct ancestor.
108 is a holy number in buddhist folk lore that helps monks become bodhisattva when they use the 108 beads of their rosary which they call a japla. Typlosion is a riff of a japanese buddhist monk that specializes in exorcism
Thank you for mentioning the Spotify! I'm a new subscriber so I didn't know about it and been looking for good remixes on Spotify! Can't wait to listen and support!
Think about it. Typhlosion is pure fire in modern times, the ghost part was exorcised by some kind of ritual, the kind that you get into with capturing the spiritomb in Arceus after collecting all 107 purple wisps, the 108 being where you go to catch spiritomb. You accidentally end up performing a ritual to pull the spirits from typhlosion's gene pool and it's role in guiding spirits.
Once again, #Hoops didn't do enough research. In ORAS, Looker also appears without memories. Implying that he also arrived at Hoenn from the Non-Mega Timeline like Anabel.
It seems nobody commented on it yet, but 108 is a very important number in Buddhism and Hinduism. It is believed that the path to nirvana is is laden with 108 temptations that have to be overcome. In Zen the ring of prayer beads is made up of 108 beads and mantra should be recited 108 times. In Japan, at the end of the year, a bell is chimed 108 times in Buddhist temples to finish the old year and welcome the new one. I am not as knowledgeable about this, though, so anyone who knows this better than me, please correct me if I'm wrong.
The Pokemon website and the PLA Pokedex say that Typhlosion eats “wayward”, “lost”, and “forsaken” spirits and purifies them when doing so. My theory is that Hisuian Typhlosion may be a predator of Spiritomb, eating its 108 spirits and then using the purified/subdued spirits in its attacks. Possibly it eats the odd keystone while eating Spiritomb, which is why the spirits stay with Typhlosion instead of just moving on after being purified since the keystone binds the spirits even after being purified. This would also explain why Hisui has enough Spiritomb to have multiple mass outbreaks but they are very rare in present Sinnoh. Perhaps after Laventon and Space-Time warps brought Cyndaquil to Hisui, the Typhlosion hunted Spiritomb to near extinction.
Just an Easter egg you might not have covered is that cyndaquill, Rowlet,and oshawott are as the starters are a reference to all the regions that Cynthia has visited after diamond and pearl
There is also an interesting point about Kamado being from Johto, and that is in the japanese version, his lines have a Kansai dialect, and Johto was based in the Kansai region. Plus despite being associated with Galar, he is dressed in a traditional japanese kimono rather than something more western like Laventon. And we all know Johto is the region closer to traditional, old-fashioned Japan compared to the other regions.
Just to make it clear, to hear the main theme, you will always hear it on the title screen AFTER you beat Arceus. I tried to find it on the title screen before beating Arceus, but couldn’t
I've always joked that battle rewards are a sort of racketeering : "give me money, OR ELSE...!" And Pokemon Legends proved that to be right, lol. The first "true Battles" of the region happen against bandits, actual thieves.
It’s weird how it’s canon in this game that “aura” was coined by Laventon when years ago, the term “aura” was already in use in ancient times according to the 8th Pokemon movie (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)
There is a really nice theory by TH-camr PaleoJay in which they mention how Zoroark’s illusions could be related to Mimikyu, it’s a bit out there but it’s still possible
the 108 souls it's reference to how in buddhism the monks have to avoid temptations to reach Nirvana and these are exactly 108, more the beads in their collars just like typhlosion has are 108, in contrast Spiritomb is the amalgamation of 108 temptations that's why he's sealed
My first thought about the Onix was that he ends up digging the Oreburgh Gate with the Onix just based on where on a Sinnoh map it would be; but the statue and coal hints made me think he’ll go on to dig more as well
3:35 usually in these cases we should watch for pokemon origins if they both are inspired by same legends or stories. As it turns out 108 is a famous number in buddishim and reperesents 108 temptations. Typhlosion simply uses the same motif of spirits and numbers. There is no direct connection unless it is later specified typhlosions find spiritombs to consume.
Please continue!! I love these videos!! Can you explain then the location of oreburgh mine and eterna forest on BDSP and PLA? That tunnel where onix is and the forest right next to that zone don’t make sense on the map comparing to BDSP. But make a whole sense if they are really the ancient eterna forest and oreburgh city zones. Also, kleavor also is a hint here, being rock and bug, for coal/mine and the forest respectively. Can you elaborate this line of thought please? I don’t get this whithin the map.
It's likely komado is from johto as he and beni both have Japanese names whereas lavinton is from galar and has an English name. He likely studied or travelled abroad to galar and that's where he got the armour and possibly met lavinton. He may or may not met his wife there too and they lived near Lake of rage and when gyarados rampaged, their homes got destroyed and his wife died.
It would make more sense for kamado to be based in the johto region especially with how Johto and Sinnoh are linked together it would be nice tie them together.
The Japanese characters for Karen actually is a reference to Burmese Rosewood and sasanqua which sanqua is named after is known in English as the winter rose. , so there is also that connection too.
Imagine if the 108 spirits is a reference to typhlosions attack going out of control while in a frenzied state or similar and it gives birth to spiritomb but since spiritomb already exists and was locked away once using magic this is unlikely but what is more plausible is that to lock spiritomb away again they needed to recreate the magic spell but didn't have enough strength on their own so they borrowed typhlosions power to recreate the spell since spiritomb is made up of 108 spirits and typhlosions signature attack just happens to use 108 spirits and is a ghost type move it worked but in doing so it loses its connection to the spirit world losing it's ghost typing in the process and becomes a pure fire type essentially meaning that the starter we're given at the start of jhoto and the other pure fire type starters we see there are all descendants of this very typhlosion since LOA basically links all the regions together it's possible that at some point a couple of ppl went back to jhoto or visited existing family there and gave them one of this typhlosions descendants and ppl visiting hisui from jhoto would've liked it enough to take one back with them as well and in the modern day enough time has passed that it's become prevalent enough that there's quite a few of them around but not so much that you'd find them out in the wilds of jhoto making them the perfect starter to be given out especially considering it's lineage and what it's ancestor was able to achieve. Wooow can't believe I just wrote out the whole lore over mention of 108 spirits was gonna stop after it loses it's typing but thought might as well explain the whole thing to avoid confusion
Hisuian Typhlosion´s Pokédex-Entry states that it uses its flame to guide lost souls into the afterlife and we know through Spiritomb´s Pokédex.Entry that it´s made up from 108 "evil" spirits. So maybe through its new powers Typhlosion gave the spirits of a Spiritomb redemption which is why it can use them in its attacks.
0:45 - 2:20 I could tell Sanqua was Karen's ancestor, but, I NEVER noticed that the room was the same color as her domain in the Johto League in HGSS and I forgot Karen starts her battle with AN UMBREON! The clues were there and yet I didn't piece them together! 2:45 108 is a VERY specific number. I wonder why. It's not like you had to search out 107 wisps to reseal a dangerous Pokémon that contained 108 spirits.
Basculin could also just be a reference to BW and BW2 legendaries main color. Sins the legendaries main colors are Black, White and Grey. But then 2nd Main color is Re an Light Grey/ Ice White (for lack of a better name)
I have a theory regarding Palina. I think that she is the ancestor of Blaine. There are a few reasons why I think that she is Blaine's ancestor. For example her noble pokemon is an arcanine and Blaine's main pokemon is an arcanine. Also the arcanine lives on an island with a volcano. Blaine also lives on an island with a volcano that being Cinnabar-Island. If you want, you can use this theory in your next video about Legends Arceus.
The fact Jessy is the clothing store owner in the main town and Team Rainbow Rocket hasn't shown up yet..... Team rocket will eventually appear. Also expansion is going to be set in PinKan or Alola. Probably Pinkan as to follow the OG storytelling of the first championship.
I wish we had more lore about the ancient Sinnoh people. I guess the clans could be descendants of them, but they're clearly very disconnected from them as they let all of these huge monuments go to ruin. Like who built these monuments? Where did they go? What connections did they have with the creation trio? Why do they seem to be more advanced than the Hisuian people based on their architecture?
You know, they might be yeeting the battle facility people across time and space to prevent the battle frontier and equivalent areas from ever returning. Also why didn't he mention the kansai dialect stuff for the Johto theory? That's pretty compelling too.
108 is also the number of beads on the Buddhist rosary I believe, which ties into Japanese (and other Buddhist related) culture of course. Counting these beads is considered a method of meditation to build focus and _detachment_ to your environment, which can be seen as a subtle indication to the ghost type
@@duralearegem6414 yeah that's there too, but perhaps making sense of a "decorative" in a pokemon's design with no other purpose would be difficult? Maybe that's why they stuck at 108? I don't feel like the beads were too related to spiritomb, (maybe it was just inspired by the lore of those 108 spirits since back then single inspirations were more common) but since it's literally around typhlosions neck I do feel like the 108 was quite probably also inspired by this this time.
One thing that confuses me is that the Underground Man says that he was the first to start digging with the Grand Underground. If that is true that would make Kochika the Underground Man and thus Byron's dad. Honestly though I think Kochika made tunnels and statues which eventually collapsed and then the Underground Man excavated them again.
Typhlosion wholesomeness you didn't know you needed: in Typhosion's pokedex entry it said that. Typhlosion leads the spirits of those who died to the afterlife. Which also means if it's trainer dies, it will go with them to the After life and stay with its trainer so they can be together forever.

In my knowledge, the number 108 is often associated with ghostly aspects in the Chinese and Japanese culture, I have seen this number in other places relating to ghosts before, so it could be a pure coincidence, but this is a regional Typhlosion after all so maybe they do have something related.
On the other hand, Hisuian Typhlosion's signature move Infernal Parade is known as "百鬼夜行", which literally translates to "Hundred ghosts night parade". Could also be a reference to this.
That is correct, actually; the number 108 is connected with several things in Indian religions (including Buddhism, which is highly influential throughout East Asia, including Japan). It's also a reference to the 108 Stars of Destiny (the reincarnations of demons said to have repented of their evil ways) in the novel "Water Margin", if memory serves.
@@ryuuakiyama3958 Thanks for the further explanation!
Yeah. 108 is a holy buddhist number.
If I recall correctly, it has to do with Buddhism, with the purging of 108 temptations of humanity to reach a more enlightened state. I was hoping Hoops would mention this, but I think this might warrant a video of its own, and how Spiritomb and Typhlosion are associated with it.
The Hyakki Yakō is also a Japanese legend where at night all kinds of spirits, ghost, and ghouls come out to march the streets. If you're outside during it than you'll be spirited away come morning.
I think the Johto Theory stands with Kamado not only because of Gyarados, but also because of the crafting system. Kurt and pokeballs using apricorns to catch Pokémon. The origins of Pokémon catching seems to originate from the Johto region and you begin the “first” Pokédex of Hisui/Sinnoh. In order to complete it, you need to catch Pokémon for study. Also, because of the time period trade for pokeballs and the knowledge couldn’t have spread far and wide amongst the other regions we see to date. So Kamado with his traditional Kimono(remember the kimono girls from Johto?) makes heavy implications that he came from Johto. Also the buildings in Jubilife do remind one of Ecruteak city where the kimono girls are located.
Furthermore, in the Japanese version of the game, when Kamado loses his composure, he adopts an accent that comes from the Japanese region Johto is based on.
For Kamado, there's nothing that stops the idea that Kamado himself was from Johto and his wife from Galar. Perhaps his would-be wife moved from Galar to Johto, then later married Kamado, and somewhere along the way, giving him the "traditional Galarian armor".
For me specifically, I find it weird that Kamado and Beni could originally be from Galar. I don't know about you, but I'm not sold on the idea of people with clearly Japanese-sounding names happening to be born in a region based on the UK without some sort of Japanese-based ancestry. Heck, Beni is a ninja. That's not a thing outside of Japan.
My headcanon for it is that Kamado is from Johto but, had an opportunity to train in the galarian army, where he got the armor and likely met his wife while there. Then, it could even be possible that the destruction of his hometown in Johton could have even happened while he was gone. Which would explain why he is so worried about failing to protect his people. Maybe he blames himself for his town's destruction because he thinks he could have prevented it had he not abandoned his people.
Two words: Shadow. Triad.
@@Justic_ also beni his right hand man behind a Ninja
I believe laventon gave him the armor
Beni being ninja supports theory of their home being near lake of rage since mahogany town is a ninja village!!!
Now I really want to know Kamado's story. Perhaps he trained in the Isle of Armor and fell in love with a noble Galarian lady, whose father opposed their marriage because Kamado was not a Galarian nobility, but after Kamado proving himself worthy, the father allowed Kamado to marry his daughter and gifted Kamado the traditional Galarian armor.
I LOVE the idea that the Miss Fortune Sisters inadvertently caused trainers of the future to have good fortune 😂
They’re The Worst Antagonistic Teams in Pokémon Cause They ONLY CAUSE TROUBLE Such As TEAM YELL And Antagonistic Team Sucks Nowadays.
TEAM SKULL At Least Have A GOAL TO BULLY THE WEAKER Trainers, STEAL Pokémon And Make Money. But TEAM YELL & Miss Fortune Sisters Are A Letdown To Me.
Same while it seems unlikely it is real funny
@@kerrywien6775 They aren't the evil team, they just live in the wild and like to upset people. I think we should move on, evil teams aren't necessary sometimes. I'd be happy if the next game doesn't have it. I'm tired of the same structure over and over and I think Game Freak is too, the last evil teams were a parody because of that, I guess
@@antoniorivas9820 I feel like we’ve been getting deeper plots that don’t rely on evil teams with newer gens. This is a good thing, because believe you me, I’m tired of the same team rocket BS over and over again.
Kamado having his village destroyed by Gyarodos would explain why Sanqua was told to engrave Magikarp for the Galaxy Building even though she wanted to make Gyarodos
I find it unlikely trainers decided to copy what some rather inconsequential bandits accidentally did. Rather it seems like monetary rewards for winning trainer battles would be a natural consequence of pokemon training becoming a common career path and major part of the economy rather than just a hobby or rare domain of eccentrics.
Who can really say? You know, expiration dates in America were only put into play because of Al Capone. One person started the whole Expiration Date on not only milk, but every other food item. Same goes for the extra seal put onto medicine, vitamins and other food items thanks to one psycho who had poisoned a few bottles of medicine (think it was aspirin). So, there is a high possibility that word got out of these bandits leaving nuggets, and so the tradition began. Sorry for the long response. Edit: BUT, not saying you are wrong, it could be either reason really.
There is extra diolgue postgame from Sanqua after you do everything. She will show you a photo that suggests the rifts and Ultra Wormholes are the same thing. Apparently the professor showed it to her and was going about it being the result of a bunch of universes overlapping. I believe she said she painted what is beyond the rift. In Lillycove museum there is a picture of Arceus. It says it is a picture painted a long time ago from the artist's imagination, just as she painted the one in PLA.
After hearing about Hisuian Typhlosion's entries, I dug a bit deeper. It also mentions its flames can also purify spirits, so the spirits can return to the afterlife. And that's what makes me love Hisuian Typhlosion even more.
I always thought of the money thing as like a way of saying, "Please don't kill me with your Pokemon now that I can't defend myself... here, take some money!"
What if Typhlosion preys on Spiritomb. It said that Typhlosion has the ability to eat evil spirits and send them to afterlife. Maybe Typhlosion hunts down Spiritomb to not only to consume it but also to release all the trapped spirits inside it.
That makes since because in the pokedex it said that it purifies lost souls and guides them to the After life.
In that instance, Spiritomb will either not exist anymore or have a "purified" form (Ghost/Fairy mayhaps?)
Perhaps they are like poison dart frogs who get their toxicity from their food but made all the spiritomb in the area go extinct by eating them all thus loosing their ghost type, after the years the numbers of spiritomb could have increased and by the time they did the typhosion could have found a different food source thus spiritomb no longer being part of their diet
I explained what it likely references you're more than welcome to have a look at it and it should make sense how it connects
Watiasec. The Magikarp statues on the Galaxy Building were originally supposed to be Gyarados statues. I'm pretty certain you talk to someone that says that that was the original intent, but then the plan got changed. I don't remember if they said who prevented them from making the Gyarados statues, but maybe it could've come from KAMADO who wouldn't want the Pokemon that destroyed his hometown to be displayed in the village!
After I battled Kamado in the post game on prelude beach he states that Hisui should be called Sinnoh. I find it really interesting that Kamado is the one who ended up calling Hisui/Sinnoh Sinnoh
My first games were gen 5, and I like to think that I'm a Unovan traveling the pokemon world and the only time travelers in legends being the player and Ingo from Unova fits my narrative really well
@@IceBlueStarCat I didn't know playthroughs were a thing until x/y and only got my information about mainline games from my friends

There's a theory that I've recently discovered that I am one hundred percent getting behind regarding Hisuian Zorua and Mustard, and that is that Zorua/Zoroark (Not Hisuian Zorua) was the Pokemon that Mustard had lost and eventually caused his retirement, but in his old age Mustard "accidentally" hints at Hisuian Zorua's existence.
If you look at Mustard's hair when his hat is off, it strongly resembles the tuft of hair that sits on top of Hisuian Zorua's head. It's not uncommon for trainers to bare a resemblance to Pokemon in some way especially with what we saw in Sun and Moon with the Ultra Beasts, so I'm going out on a limb and saying that Mustard's old friend was of the Zorua line, given that we can tell in his Rare League Card that his hair used to be darker, but the end was still red given how it's a different shading to the rest of his hair on his Rare League Card.
How this relates to Hisuian Zorua is that when Mustard got older, the base of his hair turned white but the end remained red, similar to the Hisuian variant, but in a little darker of a way, it also represents how the two are alike on an emotional level. The only reason that the Hisuian form exists is because the standard Zorua died out after being shunned from their home of origin, and came back in that white, ghostly form. The same could kinda be said for Mustard, as it'd be pretty reasonable that he'd metaphorically die on the inside once he lost his partner Pokemon, and might speed up the process of his hair going white.
This is all just very wild speculation but I thought it'd help to put this out in the world for people to see potentially.
I honestly don't think the red, blue, and white basculin are a reference to the American Flag because a lot of countries in the world have red, white and blue flags including France and the UK both of which have also been Pokemon regions.
But basculin was introduced in an American based reigon
@@Siimbba Your point? Are any red and white pokemon in a japanese region are a reference to the Japanese flag? No, they aren't. Because that would be lazy. It is more likely a reference to the fact that real world striped bass tend to be shades of silvery blue, silvery white, and rusty brownish red. By focusing on the unlikely less interesting thing you miss out on probably the real more interesting thing.
Or the fact that Red, White, and Blue have all been considered "colors of death" at certain points and locations in history leaning into the fact they evolution is a ghost type. Which makes even more sense since in some Asian cultures including Japanese white is the color not only of death, but of the journey to and from the realm of the dead.
It always has to be about the Americans
Here's another Easter egg:
Grandtree Arena eventually becomes the Old Chateau. This is because you get the Insect Plate there in dp and BDSP games outside. And you get the Insect Plate from Kleavor after defeating it in the same area :)
Interestingly, this would make more sense to say The Heartwood is the in-game equivalent to Eternal Forest, since it's also where the Old Chateau is located within
Isn't eterna forest north of oreburgh I don't think it's grand tree just because oreburgh tunnel is to the north of grand tree and it's smart and makes sense but geologically isn't it a different area I think somewhere near the bottom left of cornet highlands is probably closer to where eterna city would be located plus you can find rotom in cornet highlands too I think it would make sense for it to be placed somewhere around there
@@lcrilley93 a lot of the geographic locations do not really line up between the BDSP/DPPt and PLA.
I noticed there was something going on with the Misfortune Sisters dropping gold after the battles, but I was trying to figure out if they were from some wealthy family and who could that family be tied to in the modern era. But your point was very interesting and I fully believe that's the case now. Nice lore construction and nice catch on getting that. Please do another video! This game is fascinating.
The reference to 108 might also have something to do with Japanese Buddhist practices where, at the end of the year, a bell is rung 108 times. The 108 number represents the number of earthly temptations (Kleshas or Bonno) one must overcome to achieve nirvana.
Similarly in Tibetan Buddhism, mala beads are worn with 108 beads, symbolizing the words of the Buddha written across 108 volumes.
I also know that, as HH Jan pointed out as well, Typhlosion's Infernal Parade move in Japanese is literally named for "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons." Both a mythological parade or riot of demons through the street at night, but also a modern idiom for the concept of pandemonium.
Yeah I agree the 108 might be more related to these religious aspects since after all pokemon is heavily influenced by Japanese culture.
Thanks for the info! I was foggy on the details, but I knew it had to do with Buddhism and the 108 temptations. Infernal Parade being a direct reference to the march of demons is super cool!
@@hhjan594 I think both might be correct! Pokemon always pulls from a multitude of sources at once.
A secret I found in Arceus that rarely people actually see is if you catch a shiny Pokémon and it’s your FIRST Pokémon of that kind the picture in the Dex that shows up is it’s shiny version not it’s original version. You can’t even switch out the pictures like you can if you catch a shiny of a Pokémon you already have. It’s like you assume that the shiny version is it’s base version and I think that’s really cool.
I found this out with catching my first shiny Bonsly recently.
Yep. It’s the same way in other games too 🙂
@@jamie151-d9j In other games you can change the preview of the mon by entering the dex entry and seeing the shiny form
@@mrsalami8352 i know, but when i caught a shiny galvantula in a previous game, it showed the shiny form in the pokedex
I never realized how the three basculin forms are now Red White and Blue and that connected to the us flag but it makes so much sense😭
I wonder if it's a hint to a new legends game
@@doot7730 yes Legends Unova would be AMAZING
Another fun fact about Sanqua is that her closet has a suit with a cape in it, so this implies that she might not only like to play dress up, but she is the ancestor to Clair as well. Which would make her Lance's ancestor to. In other words this implies Karen is related to both Clair and Lance.
Great information as always! Though I think the script could've done with some editions. There were even more "honestly"s and "actually"s than usual!
Coal is organic material that comes from dead plant and animal life. Oreburgh city is the heartwood. It caused deforestation and scyther in the area went extinct, same with kleavor.
One final thing about Legends Arceus actually reference something which happens to something that we should talk about and not argue or ignore which would be the PokeBall that the Red Chain becomes in Legends Arceus which actually references a distinct ball that we see all the time that been unobtainable but had been the very ball that contains the event Pokemon in the previous games with that being the Cherish Ball that contains the event Pokemon from the events that you get upon their release like Zeraora from Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon via event codes. I mean if you look at the Red Chain Ball closely it has a black circle and the whole ball is all red just like the Cherish Ball icon that you see on your event Pokemon which the Cherish Ball does appear when you send out your event Pokemon in battle as well
For the typhlosion thing, there is an interesting line in the pokedex which says its flames are actually purifying lost spirits. So perhaps typhlosion does have a connection to spiritomb cus its trying to purify the spirits that were released from the keystone?
The kamado thing about being from the lake of rage, i could see it as it matches up with the story and beni being a ninja would make more sense coming from johto instead of galar. There could also be a hint in the fact there are magikarp statues on the roof of the headquarters which were originally gonna be garados. But there's still issues with this being that kamado is wearing "traditional galarian armor", if he was from johto and he cared about honoring traditions like ceremonial armor, he wouldnt claim armor and traditions from a region that wasnt his own. Also there's the issue of laventon being highly theorised as the ancestor of leon and hop, and the fact there's a statue of galarian wheezing on the headquarters
If anything, he seems to have connections to both galar and johto so i could guess that perhaps he originally came from galar with laventon and settled in johto. Made a life with his wife and met beni here, then the lake of rage happened and so they all moved up to hisui?
It's likely his wife was from Galar. Wearing it into battle seems to me like a tribute to his departed love. He may also wear it as he believes she still protects him. Something like that.
I found another easter egg during Daybreak. Mai reveals that she is actually Adaman's sister, which means that Adaman is also related to Marley, though he is likely not her direct ancestor.
Wasn’t her tone and implication more akin to a close friend that acted like a sibling?
@@MagusAgrippa8 It was definitely vague, so I'm not entirely sure.
They aren't actually related, she just treats him as a brother. Pretty sure its mentioned by one of the children at the Diamond Settlement.
108 is a holy number in buddhist folk lore that helps monks become bodhisattva when they use the 108 beads of their rosary which they call a japla. Typlosion is a riff of a japanese buddhist monk that specializes in exorcism
108 universe's number.
108 point in human body.
108 1+0+8=9.
Thank you for mentioning the Spotify! I'm a new subscriber so I didn't know about it and been looking for good remixes on Spotify! Can't wait to listen and support!
Think about it. Typhlosion is pure fire in modern times, the ghost part was exorcised by some kind of ritual, the kind that you get into with capturing the spiritomb in Arceus after collecting all 107 purple wisps, the 108 being where you go to catch spiritomb. You accidentally end up performing a ritual to pull the spirits from typhlosion's gene pool and it's role in guiding spirits.
Kamado speaks in Kansai dialect in Japanese, meaning that he's from Johto since Johto is Kansai!
Once again, #Hoops didn't do enough research.
In ORAS, Looker also appears without memories. Implying that he also arrived at Hoenn from the Non-Mega Timeline like Anabel.
It seems nobody commented on it yet, but 108 is a very important number in Buddhism and Hinduism. It is believed that the path to nirvana is is laden with 108 temptations that have to be overcome. In Zen the ring of prayer beads is made up of 108 beads and mantra should be recited 108 times. In Japan, at the end of the year, a bell is chimed 108 times in Buddhist temples to finish the old year and welcome the new one.
I am not as knowledgeable about this, though, so anyone who knows this better than me, please correct me if I'm wrong.
The nuggets could also tie into the Nugget Bridges. They started giving prizes, and money is a nod to the nuggets of old.
I absolutely love this game! I think it’s the best one yet! I’m guessing from the amount of content you’re releasing about it you feel the same way?
i just realized that proff. Laventon is probably named after lavender town
I absolutely love that flute on the title screen
The Pokemon website and the PLA Pokedex say that Typhlosion eats “wayward”, “lost”, and “forsaken” spirits and purifies them when doing so. My theory is that Hisuian Typhlosion may be a predator of Spiritomb, eating its 108 spirits and then using the purified/subdued spirits in its attacks. Possibly it eats the odd keystone while eating Spiritomb, which is why the spirits stay with Typhlosion instead of just moving on after being purified since the keystone binds the spirits even after being purified. This would also explain why Hisui has enough Spiritomb to have multiple mass outbreaks but they are very rare in present Sinnoh. Perhaps after Laventon and Space-Time warps brought Cyndaquil to Hisui, the Typhlosion hunted Spiritomb to near extinction.
Doesn't Ingo look to the side everytime you defeat one of his pokémons?
I always assumed Kamado was born and grew up in Galar, but then moved to Johto, and then to Hisui.
The 108 spirits for typh is a reference to Buddhist prayer beads
I didn't even notice we don't get money from the battles lol 😂
Just an Easter egg you might not have covered is that cyndaquill, Rowlet,and oshawott are as the starters are a reference to all the regions that Cynthia has visited after diamond and pearl
Or the village destroyed can be the one from Tapu Bulu in Alola. Just the armor is made of steel. One of its weakness. For me it would make sense too
There is also an interesting point about Kamado being from Johto, and that is in the japanese version, his lines have a Kansai dialect, and Johto was based in the Kansai region. Plus despite being associated with Galar, he is dressed in a traditional japanese kimono rather than something more western like Laventon. And we all know Johto is the region closer to traditional, old-fashioned Japan compared to the other regions.
Fun fact Ingo from Pokémon legends Arceus and Anabel from Pokémon sun and moon do share the first Pokémon that being Alakazam 🤔🤩🤩
Would definitely like to see more of this type of video
I just realized that the machop in Oreburgh Mine probably originate from the machop in the Oreburrow Tunnels
Just to make it clear, to hear the main theme, you will always hear it on the title screen AFTER you beat Arceus. I tried to find it on the title screen before beating Arceus, but couldn’t
I've always joked that battle rewards are a sort of racketeering : "give me money, OR ELSE...!"
And Pokemon Legends proved that to be right, lol. The first "true Battles" of the region happen against bandits, actual thieves.
It’s nice to see a cool detail about my boy lucario
It’s weird how it’s canon in this game that “aura” was coined by Laventon when years ago, the term “aura” was already in use in ancient times according to the 8th Pokemon movie (Lucario and the Mystery of Mew)
There is a really nice theory by TH-camr PaleoJay in which they mention how Zoroark’s illusions could be related to Mimikyu, it’s a bit out there but it’s still possible
Love your videos dude! Keep up the great work!
With the miss fortune sisters if you sneak up on them they give you special dialogue saying that you shouldn't have suprised them
the 108 souls it's reference to how in buddhism the monks have to avoid temptations to reach Nirvana and these are exactly 108, more the beads in their collars just like typhlosion has are 108, in contrast Spiritomb is the amalgamation of 108 temptations that's why he's sealed
I have a few fun theories that make me super hyped.
My first thought about the Onix was that he ends up digging the Oreburgh Gate with the Onix just based on where on a Sinnoh map it would be; but the statue and coal hints made me think he’ll go on to dig more as well
3:35 usually in these cases we should watch for pokemon origins if they both are inspired by same legends or stories. As it turns out 108 is a famous number in buddishim and reperesents 108 temptations. Typhlosion simply uses the same motif of spirits and numbers. There is no direct connection unless it is later specified typhlosions find spiritombs to consume.
You don’t have to beat the game to hear that iconic intro in the title screen. I’ve heard multiple times, and I just defeated Avalugg.
Awesome video and in your next one can you talk about why crafting isn't in the modern Pokemon games?
Please continue!! I love these videos!! Can you explain then the location of oreburgh mine and eterna forest on BDSP and PLA? That tunnel where onix is and the forest right next to that zone don’t make sense on the map comparing to BDSP. But make a whole sense if they are really the ancient eterna forest and oreburgh city zones. Also, kleavor also is a hint here, being rock and bug, for coal/mine and the forest respectively. Can you elaborate this line of thought please? I don’t get this whithin the map.
Damn, this is a good video 🔥
It's likely komado is from johto as he and beni both have Japanese names whereas lavinton is from galar and has an English name. He likely studied or travelled abroad to galar and that's where he got the armour and possibly met lavinton. He may or may not met his wife there too and they lived near Lake of rage and when gyarados rampaged, their homes got destroyed and his wife died.
It would make more sense for kamado to be based in the johto region especially with how Johto and Sinnoh are linked together it would be nice tie them together.
Dope video
Pretty sure the red,white and blue one us just a reference to the fact that bass has, silvery blue rust red brown and white bass...not a usa flag😂😂
i always saw hisuian typhlosion as a monk archetype 👻👻👻
Really? The conveyor belts are what you chose to highlight the mine having coal and not the museum or any of the npcs?
The Japanese characters for Karen actually is a reference to Burmese Rosewood and sasanqua which sanqua is named after is known in English as the winter rose.
, so there is also that connection too.
Imagine if the 108 spirits is a reference to typhlosions attack going out of control while in a frenzied state or similar and it gives birth to spiritomb but since spiritomb already exists and was locked away once using magic this is unlikely but what is more plausible is that to lock spiritomb away again they needed to recreate the magic spell but didn't have enough strength on their own so they borrowed typhlosions power to recreate the spell since spiritomb is made up of 108 spirits and typhlosions signature attack just happens to use 108 spirits and is a ghost type move it worked but in doing so it loses its connection to the spirit world losing it's ghost typing in the process and becomes a pure fire type essentially meaning that the starter we're given at the start of jhoto and the other pure fire type starters we see there are all descendants of this very typhlosion since LOA basically links all the regions together it's possible that at some point a couple of ppl went back to jhoto or visited existing family there and gave them one of this typhlosions descendants and ppl visiting hisui from jhoto would've liked it enough to take one back with them as well and in the modern day enough time has passed that it's become prevalent enough that there's quite a few of them around but not so much that you'd find them out in the wilds of jhoto making them the perfect starter to be given out especially considering it's lineage and what it's ancestor was able to achieve.
Wooow can't believe I just wrote out the whole lore over mention of 108 spirits was gonna stop after it loses it's typing but thought might as well explain the whole thing to avoid confusion
Hisuian Typhlosion´s Pokédex-Entry states that it uses its flame to guide lost souls into the afterlife and we know through Spiritomb´s Pokédex.Entry that it´s made up from 108 "evil" spirits. So maybe through its new powers Typhlosion gave the spirits of a Spiritomb redemption which is why it can use them in its attacks.
0:45 - 2:20 I could tell Sanqua was Karen's ancestor, but, I NEVER noticed that the room was the same color as her domain in the Johto League in HGSS and I forgot Karen starts her battle with AN UMBREON! The clues were there and yet I didn't piece them together!
2:45 108 is a VERY specific number. I wonder why. It's not like you had to search out 107 wisps to reseal a dangerous Pokémon that contained 108 spirits.
Hisui typhlosion is an odd keystone and bound 108 spirits to itself
love videos like this
I had to stop what I was doing and go listen to the title music
Basculin could also just be a reference to BW and BW2 legendaries main color. Sins the legendaries main colors are Black, White and Grey. But then 2nd Main color is Re an Light Grey/ Ice White (for lack of a better name)
The galaxy HQ has Magikarp decorations so maybe that's a hint to Johto and Kamado's origin?
My personal theory about the commander is, that he is from Kalos and the destruction came from the big war.
I have a theory regarding Palina. I think that she is the ancestor of Blaine. There are a few reasons why I think that she is Blaine's ancestor.
For example her noble pokemon is an arcanine and Blaine's main pokemon is an arcanine. Also the arcanine lives on an island with a volcano. Blaine also lives on an island with a volcano that being Cinnabar-Island. If you want, you can use this theory in your next video about Legends Arceus.
Friendly reminder, battle facility leaders are capable of using mythical Pokémon.
I wish that when you get giratina you get to send ingo back home with his brother
The fact Jessy is the clothing store owner in the main town and Team Rainbow Rocket hasn't shown up yet..... Team rocket will eventually appear. Also expansion is going to be set in PinKan or Alola. Probably Pinkan as to follow the OG storytelling of the first championship.
Lian obviosly is involved with the mine, he is the ancestor of Turner in Pokemon Black and white, who is also a miner
I wish we had more lore about the ancient Sinnoh people. I guess the clans could be descendants of them, but they're clearly very disconnected from them as they let all of these huge monuments go to ruin. Like who built these monuments? Where did they go? What connections did they have with the creation trio? Why do they seem to be more advanced than the Hisuian people based on their architecture?

You know, they might be yeeting the battle facility people across time and space to prevent the battle frontier and equivalent areas from ever returning. Also why didn't he mention the kansai dialect stuff for the Johto theory? That's pretty compelling too.
108 is also the number of beads on the Buddhist rosary I believe, which ties into Japanese (and other Buddhist related) culture of course. Counting these beads is considered a method of meditation to build focus and _detachment_ to your environment, which can be seen as a subtle indication to the ghost type
Yes and no. There are 108 prayer beads, or some factor of 109 (27 is common). But, there is often one additional bead as a decorative piece.
@@duralearegem6414 yeah that's there too, but perhaps making sense of a "decorative" in a pokemon's design with no other purpose would be difficult? Maybe that's why they stuck at 108? I don't feel like the beads were too related to spiritomb, (maybe it was just inspired by the lore of those 108 spirits since back then single inspirations were more common) but since it's literally around typhlosions neck I do feel like the 108 was quite probably also inspired by this this time.
@@kappaprimus I agree. The 109th bead isn't as important as the others, so maybe that's why it was left out of the two creatures.

One thing that confuses me is that the Underground Man says that he was the first to start digging with the Grand Underground. If that is true that would make Kochika the Underground Man and thus Byron's dad. Honestly though I think Kochika made tunnels and statues which eventually collapsed and then the Underground Man excavated them again.
When I saw Sanqua,the first two people I thought of were Lucien and Claire.
