Gnoggin, hosted by its creator Lockstin, is a show delving into the mysteries of Pokemon! (and other games sometimes too). Explaining everything there is to explain! Why is each Pokemon given the type it has? What are their origins? What is the lore of the Pokemon world and the design inspirations? And what does it all have to do with alchemy? Let's Go find out! - เกม
If I recall correctly, the reason of Suicune's typing (and the other two beasts) is due to the Burnt Tower legend, thats says that three pokemon died when the Brass tower suddenly started burning, then was strucked by a lightning and then it was put down by a mysterious downpour, Ho-oh then gave life again to those three pokemon and gave them legendary powers based on the fire, lightning, and rain that the tower went through.
So, lore wise it makes sense that Suicune is Water type.
A theory I've heard of is that the three unnamed Pokémon that perished in the blaze were a Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon.
yes, its good lore, but his design and description resembles ice too much
@@Chaos89P Look more like Zygarde 10%. And Dogs...
Besides the "Sui" in Suicune's name comes from the Chinese word for water and its the mascot of crystal version, with crystals being hydrated minerals
@DeathBoo
The legend says the Tower was struck by Lightning (thus Raikou's the oldest of the trio), set Aflame (thus Entei being the second Ho-oh created), and the fire was put out by the purifying rain, (thus Suicune being the last of the three, and its ability to purify any water it touches).
When I was younger I thought Feebas looked like a microwaved version of Magikarp so, I thought you could get Feebas by having Magikarp on your team with 5 fire Pokémon so it could get dried up...
Yeah I’m stupid
Flamingo_Hue BIG BRAIN
That's genuinely cute
Hmmm... That was GENIUS!
O
Wait MICROWAVE A FULL TEAM OF MAGIKARP TO GET FEEBAS! just kidding don't do this. SUPER BIG BRAIN!
Lockstin: Vaporeon is the most “literally water” water type
Rainy form Castform: I guess I’m not a thing then
Normal castform, and rainy form: I DONT EXIST!
Same with Jellicent.
just normal cast form is supposed to be a water molecule
That's what i guessed
Helm and dex entry: it's body is mostly seawater
a terrible vaporeon tragedy:
**vaporeon becomes water in a glass**
a careless trainer: **drinks vaporeon**
Vaporeon then becomes visible inside its stomach
@@XGame80 vore
@@prismoth n o
Sad sad sad
Oh god
Suicune is water type due to the story behind the three legendary beasts, which are cats (Entei is a lion, Raikou a tiger and Suicune a leopard) Raikou represents the lightning bolt that struck the tower, Entei represents the flames that engulfed the tower and Suicune represents the rain that put it out
Also Suicune can purify any pool of water... and it could be that it also follows the theory tht the three pokemon who died were Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon as the dog trio share the same typing as the OG eeveeloutions. also based on the logic hes using then wouldn't he insist Celesteela (who hes covered twice) be a grass type? Celesteela learns more grass moves than Steel/flying... yet hes ok pointing out its based on a myth... Hmmmm….
they're dogs you know
Wow, I never made the connection.
Also, "Sui" means water in chinese, so it has water in his name, literally
They are more cats then dogs but people call them legendary dogs.
Vaporion: *turns to water
Me: *fills bottle with it and puts in the fridge
Gongrats vaporion transformed in glaceon
You’re kidnapping water
More like Frozen cuteness
A.
Freezer
and the whole time vaporeon stares at you with it's owo face
I love how they recently rediscovered coelacanths, like we really thought they were extinct, they literally have armour and are cool
7:14 "Remember Basculin? Because i don't."
Well good news you'll remember it for sure because of its evolution Basculegion!
And same thing for not remembering Qwilfish just a few moments later!

Wasabi!
Isn’t Palkia a water type because the trio is supposed to represent the 3 states of matter where Dialga is solid, Palkia is liquid, and Giratina is Gas
That actually makes a lot of sense
To me Palkia is Water type because of the common cultural myth of the Primordial Waters being the beginning of the Universe (and consequently Space). Dialga is Steel because the rusting of metal represents the flow of time?... Giratina is Ghost because he's basically the Lord of the Underworld.
I never thought of that but it's supossed to be, Diagla is the keeper of Time. Giratina is the keeper of the Underworld. Palkia is the keeper of Space.
Ava well you’re also right. It’s just how you interpret the double meaning.
I love Gen 4, I swear the stuff in Sinnoh is representative of so many things other than what you see on the surface. That's pretty cool, I actually never knew this.
"Suicune shouldn't be water type!!!" he says, neglecting to mention its entire in canon backstory about how it was resurrected and given the water type to represent the rain that doused the fire that killed it.
Also the theory that the trio are basically supernatural forms of the original 3 eeveelutions
Yeah, you have to work from the assumption that it's water type for a reason and find out why rather than looking at it and guessing its type then saying "well that can't be right" when you find out you're wrong. There's obvious reasons for it to be water type, even if taken on its own ice would be more obvious.
thank you, i was so triggered with the Suicune part of the video.
I was looking to see if anyone else mentioned this, I would have done otherwise (I ain't no copycat)
Actual factual
I know this is two years old but, can we legit get a shir that says, *clears throat* "Special Rear Gland Ejection Techniques?" Lmao
lol
it shouldnt be a shirt
it should be underwear
@@DragonbornCanid it should be under what? ;) Under WEAR! HAH! Sorry, its been a long weekend and my humor swich is stuck somewhere between the "Get this goofy nigga outta here" & "What did he just say? I mean, I KNOW what he said but.. WHAT?" Giggity. Much love and respect from the "Armpit of America" aka Indiana lol. :)
I forgot to thank the two folks almost as far behind as i am. Thanks for making me not feel so alone in this video from the past.. Giggity.
@@mistrodiscreeto3095 under.. under what?? hue
help im not a native english speaker im lost 😂😂 i wanna laugh at funny haha joke
19:23 That's the English translator's fault for categorizing Blastoise that. In Japan, it's referred to as the Shell Pokemon alongside Kabutops, but the English category refers them as the Shellfish Pokemon.
They do commonly change categories in the localization with multiple Pokemon like Flygon and Xatu (Spirit Pokemon to Mystic Pokemon which still makes sense for Xatu and Flygon... sort of) alongside Chimchar and Grookey (Small Monkey Pokemon to the Chimp Pokemon, but it makes sense for Chimchar)
He said humuhumunukunukuapua’a correctly he has passed the test
I thought the same thing haha
Ulu’s purple Maia thingy Yay i even said it
Justice
Dragønatør ツ Justice would in fact be my name
but then he said coelacanth incorrectly
What mostly upsets me about all of this...
No, not Remoraid being a gun.
No, not Feebas looking like a corpse of a Magikarp.
No, not the fact that, in Pokémon GO's Tentacool's Pokédex entry says that it dries up on land.
Gorebyss' shell-bra.
Why does it need a bara?! It's an eel!
Have you seen Arcanine‘s dex-entry? It can walk up to 10.000 km per day. Let it hatch the eggs!
16:18
“slopoke, slobro, and sloking are hippos.”
me: *jaw literally drops *
“surprisingly, a lot of people are surprised by that.”
I have always felt Lapras was most Water Type of Water Types because it is similar to Ancient Creatures that existed during the Mesozoic era. (Not counting the fossils because the process made them partially rock type.)
“name a pokemon that’s literally water”
me: Castform’s Rainy Form
“Vaporeon”
me: wut
Alex Tolentino I thought it was primarina
Also aren't Jellicent like 98% water since they're jelly fish?
@@bugjams My immediate thought was "Tentacool and Tentacruel" for this exact reason - I completely forgot Frillish and Jellicent existed.
My first thought was Phione
Bro that's what I'm saying because when u use rain castform literately becomes water
The Humuhumunukunukuapua'a is the best name for a fish
Did u see that octonauts episode or is that just my obbsession when i was little aussie thing only maybe ???
@@wormonastring5372 yea I watched it when I was little but wat does it have to do with my comment
@@Ralsrags there was an episode where they found those fish and were trying to pronounve it
I love it,
No idea what the origin is, but I want it to be how someone laughed at it's face
and then colonialists & missionaries trying to convert it to the latin alphabet.
I remember it from High School Musical 2
My personal headcanon for why Palkia is Water type is because the multiverse is usually depicted as a group of spheres containing universes, which you could think of as bubbles
I have an interesting fact- Primarina is also based on the Selkie from Celtic mythology. Humans that transform into seals when they wear their magic coat. I'll encourage people to watch Song of the Sea, it's a fantastic movie.
I liked it
What if Vaporeon melted into the water and you drank some?
Then you would of eaten it.
WhittyWhitts or if you boiled it
So I can theoretically keep a Vaporeon in my waterbottle
Sarah Hoffman would of?! Would of ??? Really? It's would've! Do you even English?
i would assume it would be able to regenerate itself using regular water molecules. like itd have to have a portion of its actual cells that could recode those molecules to be part of it
27:55
AURORA BOREALIS?! AT THIS TIME OF YEAR AT THIS TIME OF DAY IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY LOCALIZED ENTIRELY WITHIN YOUR KITCHEN?
Yes!
May I see it?
...no.
Seymour! The house is on fire!
No mother it's just the northern lights
Suicune is actually water type because it represents the rain that extinguished the fire which burned Brass Tower, now known as the Burned Tower. Likewise Raikou represents the lightning that struck the Brass Tower and Entei represents the fire that burned the Brass Tower. Also, Suicune is known for purifying impure water.
I believe Palkia’s water type isn’t because it has an aquatic element, but it’s metaphorical like in typical mythology. Dalgia, Giratina, and Palkia supposed to represent 3 states of matter Solid (steel) liquid (water) and Gas (ghost)
25:58
Wait, their eyes are white? This whole time I just thought their eyes have been closed cause they are happy or something
Me too
Same
When you picture the top and bottom of their eyes different you can see it
now they look creepy
Their 3d models in later games show they blink where the curved line in the middle of the eye flattens, so I think its light closed, but still 'blinks' but forcing them tightly shut
3:49
It's a gun that evolves into a bigger gun
Americans: _eyes glow_
Its 3:52
Also its Because theres a Mollusc that Looks like a Fish.
Like.
Mollusc to Bigger Mollusc.
I thought the same thing, and as an American I'm sick of American Society throwing thier controversial BS like monkeys throw poop. So I let the gun thing slide.
Did someone mention... *guns?!*
Lockstin: Seriously, who cares about Basculin?
Legends Arceus: I’m about to start this man’s whole career
I think that the Gol- suffix used for both Golduck and Golbat is derived from ghoul, not gold. It makes much more sense as in both cases, its earlier for changes from a vaguely cute-ish if dorky-looking animal into something a bit more unsettling and monstrous.
Also, I imagine the SpongeBob style suits being spelled "SCOOWBA" - Self Contained Out Of Water Breathing Apparatus.
Lockstin: “aquatic or semi-aquatic mammals”
My mind: Perry the Platypus
YESSSSS
I need platypus pokémon
specifically semi-aquatic eight-legged mammals of action?
@@purgatoryproductions310 lol it’s semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of action
I’m pretty sure that Clauncher and Clawitzer are also based on the pistol shrimp.
I dont think the pistol shrimp shoots water, I've heard that it closes its pincer so hard that the bubbles instantly pop and cause major damage
Yeah, but does that not sound like a water type Pokémon idea for you. I mean its a Pokémon...take Araquanid for example. It is essentially the Diving Bell Spider in reverse(it makes water bubbles to stay on land while the real thing makes air bubbles) So it would not be to crazy to believe that instead of shooting bubbles(essentially pockets of air) they made it shoot water instead. Plus pistol shrimps do have one claw that is bigger(like Lockstin mentioned in the video) than the other and the claw can noticeable like "cock back" when getting ready to fire. Also Pistol Shrimp is a crustacean named after a gun just like Clawncher is. Similar to how Octillary is an octopus with tank/artillery traits or Remoraid is based on an archer fish.
@@c.q.cumber5870 Bubble is a water type move. 👀
That would make sense considering their names, especially with Clawitzer clearly being a play on words of howitzer.
My first game was pkm platonum .i still habe my impopeon and its my Favorit!
I've heard that castform is supposed to be a water molecule. The head part would be the oxygen atom while it's lower half would be the smaller hydrogen atoms
For real, I paused the video and thought of it and immediately Vaporeon comes to mind.
I feel so proud of myself for answering correctly😭
Lockstin: "Sharpedo is fast, yo!"
Anyone Who Played the SwSh DLC: "You have no idea"
Relateable
*war flashbacks
I screamed while my friend was driving and almost caused an accident, thanks sharpedo
Want pokémon from DLC??
Haha speed boost go brrr
Who else though Panpour and Simipour just had closed eyes instead of them being just white
But that also still works for the see no evil explanation
Nella Ruff There's also "do no evil" where the monkey has his hands on his...dick and balls (Watch Chuggaaconroy's Pokémon Black Walkthrough, he mentions it in either Episode 5 or 6).
There's a 4th?!
Me

Suicune: I came from a dog who burned to death. And now I purify water.
Locksin: no.
I always thought panpour and simipours eyes were closed. You just blew my mind.
As for suicune. Not a fan of it but I am a big fan of gen 2 in general so I knew it was water.
Giratina, Dialga and Palkia represent solid, liquid, and gas. Giratina being dragon ghost ( *gas* ), Dialga being dragon steel ( *solid* ) and Palkia being dragon water ( *liquid* ).
Giratina is actually anti-matter
@@meme_aids they represent multiple things. Space, time, and anitmatter, but also liquid, solid, and gas.
Ecos Adventurer They never say antimatter in the Games or Anime, or by Gamefreak, that’s just speculation. Gravity seems to be a better explanation for it and it’s destructive nature. It flies without using air magic, and it’s spectral wings shouldn’t be able to fly in the real world, so the ability to control gravity would explain this away, and the distortion world plays with gravity by making water flow “up” and have floating chunks of land. Gravity can also be very destructive, so banishing it makes sense. Obviously that’s also speculation, but this is just to say to not spout out speculation as fact.
@@sylvereon No. Im Pretty sure its Gravity. When Matter and Antimatter touch. They are anihilated.
If Giratina Touched our world.
She/he Would Die along with the World.
*ALSO* Gravity can Distort Time and Space. So Y E A H
@@Mattno.777 I didn’t say it wasn’t. If you read my point you would have seen many arguments for Gravity. All I’m saying is both of those are speculation, because there is no confirmation of any of the two.
As a kid I always assumed Suicune was Ice type _because_ that'd make the legendary beasts land versions of the legendary birds of the previous generation. It was also the version mascot for Pokemon Crystal Version, y'know, ice crystals being water when it's in crystal form.
Then when I learned it was Water type I realize it's basically a super Vaporeon, Entei is a super Flareon, and Raikou is a super Jolteon. Which was also a popular fan theory at the time.
really vaporeon is made of water the ultimate water type
suicine is in the shouldnt category
vaporeon>suicine
When I first saw suicune I thought it was ice type because of the crystal and frost patterns on its body and when I got one of those big Pokémon books and saw the page of suicune I was confused to see it be a water type
I'm guessing for the pure just water, water form castform? I know this has been a while but apperently I missed the water type one, but I don't actually remember if your going with forms or not. If not I got no idea.
I always thought as kid that Palkia is water because the whole space/god theme of sinnoh legends. Dialga represents a solid (steel), Palkia represents liquid (water) and Giratina represents gasses (ghost).
Palkia - Liquid
Dialga - Solid
Giratina - Gas
Suicune is water because of the 3 legendary beasts Johto legend, theres some story about thunderbolt that struck a tower, a fire that broke out and then rain that put out the fire. Hence Entei, Raiku, suicune, when ho-oh revived them and gave them their powers based on what went down at that temple place thing.
What does the space/god theme have to do with solids liquids and gases
A bit late dont you think
Uncle Fungus
It’s because the universe is said to be made up of these three forms of matter. HOWEVER, that is not actually true, as plasma is the fourth form of matter and is in fact what 99% of our universe is ACTUALLY made of.
....fun fact.
Pretty sure arcues is plasma BUT girtina isn't gas its ACCTULLY anti-matter
Well I know this probably won't get a response, but Palkia might be loosely based off an old Egyptian primordial deity named Nun, who is believed today to be the Ancient Egyptians interpretation of Space. Which even more convincingly, the Ancient Egyptians thought the night sky was in fact a great ocean, that would certainly explain the water type.
Also fun fact, that deity Nun was in fact Ra's father, who was the sun god and head honcho of the Egyptian Pantheon.
Everytime i see wailord... I'll remember the fact that wailord can breed with skitty
O H
hol up
Baby wailmer: Mom?
Tiny skitty: says nothing
HOT SKITTY ON WAILORD ACTION!
I think that Suicune may be only a water type because of that myth/theory that says that the legendary beast are the revived/reincarnated versions of the three pokemon that died in the Burned Tower and that were brought back to life by Ho-oh. Supposedly, the three eeveelutions (vaporeon, flareon and jolteon). Which would explain why Suicune, despite all the ice related inspirations is a water type pokemon.
7:14 Basculegion would beg to differ
Not only does Palkia represent space but also the matter of liquid, along with giratina as gas and dialga as solid
Trainertalesans
Random person: the only water dragon type is palkia!
Kingdra: *am I a joke to you?*
giratina is antimatter, you fool! also dialga is time!
James Brice just to make it easy, palkia is space but liquid, dialga is time but solid, Giratina is antimatter but gas, the 3 states of matter not including plasma, dialga’s steel typing refers to solid, giratina’s typing is a bit confusing but i guess it’s just to do with gas.
You could link giratina loosely as antimatter ooor as a gas since its a ghost type and you can somewhat see through gas and ghosts 🤔🤔🤔🤔
I still hate palkia my most hated Pokémon
Simipour’s eyes are open?!?!?!
I'll never see this pokémon in the same way!
Same case as brock
Yep, thought the exact same thing. Thought he was just a jolly fella.
Apparently he's got creepy ghost eyes.
Actually, I just checked, and he apparently got it wrong. Panpour and Simipour's eyes are indeed closed. But that won't surely help to erase that blank eye image from our brains.
@@bru9383 Yea, kind of hard to embody "see no evil" with _open_ eyes...
Hey Lockstin, any possibility of you updating these vids or just making some vids covering gen 7 onwards? These are some of my favourite videos of yours.
I don't know if Lockstin reads comments, but if you're wondering why rotom has water 24:02, it's because it's been mentioned a few times already that Water Type moves are not real water. You can't sate your thirst in a desert with their water. That water also doesn't go into the water cycle. Rotom-W is most likely just conjuring temporary faux-water.
A lot of Pokemon powers are straight up magic, and recent games have been pushing the narrative that typed energy is powered by lifeforce.
Palika is water to balance the ground of the space
Dialga=Steel=Solid
Palika=Water=Liquid
Giratina=Ghost=Gas
Rhin OW Btw dialga is solid not matter
Rhin OW cause everything is matter except for antimatter
@@Lingling-im1hp thank you knew i was wrong (-;
Giratina is anti matter thats why its confied to its own dimension
@@Disatiere yeah, but sientifikly (know i wrote it wrong) the three base elemental forms is Solid, Liquid & Gas
“Tale of the gallant jiraiya” that just earned you a like, buddy
Definitely my favorite anime-inspiring Classical Japanese folk story. Maybe journey to the west.
hi
Got some naruto in my Pokémon
I remember someone brought a magikarp to fight an arcanine. Can we respect that man?
7:14 Oh boy, Basculegion about to change some minds up in here
Sir, I applaud you for your pronunciation of the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a. I am from Hawaii, and I approve of your effort. 🤙🏼
As far as I've heard, Qwilfish isn't *just* a pufferfish. It's also reminiscent of a naval mine, fitting the Johto water types' theme of weapons and war machines.
And it can explode
also, Sharpedo is based on, well, a torpedo.
Panpour is supposed to represent the water used in a tea ceremony, with Pansear being the fire to heat up the water and Pansage being the leaves from which the water extracts the flavors from to become tea. I am not messing with anyone, there is actually a video in a series called "Pokémon F.E.E.T. (Facts, Easter Eggs, and Trivia)" which goes into detail about the three.
Here is a new water type Pokémon category . How about the "Clam Pokémon?"
[Semi/Pan]pour have white pupils?! I always thought it's eyes were closed..
Maaan, I thought too. My world is ruined. Oh, and also: blue Jellicent has a MUSTACHE? My world has been ruined twice.
Me too i thought they were happy closed white eyelids.
It’s eyes *are* closed. It sees no evil because it’s eyes are closed, not because it’s blind.
@@mevicky100 If it's blind (white pupils and and lens) it would also not see /evil/
pegasBaO23 look at the other two Pan/Simi monkeys, specifically their eyes. They have oval shaped eyes with oval pupils, you can see the whites of their eyes around the pupil. If Panpour/Simipour really have white pupils, they take up way more space in the eye oval than the other two - they wouldn’t match the other Pokémon. Also, check Bulbapedia, it confirms that their eyes are closed.
Magicarp: They told me I could be whatever I wanted, SO I BECAME A GOD!!
Every episode ends with Gnoggin having a breakdown over a Pokémon, like with Shuckle in the bug type video
I did a project on Nessie for ELA, and have recognized a bunch of stuff from this series (kelpies, Ryujin, etc.
I can't wait to see you cover Dragon types, they're some of my favorite Pokemon
There will be only two categories: the ones that look like a dragon, and wtf which only includes alolan exegguttor lol
Rather he save them for last since it will be the best one.
the most OP of them all, of course!
after water they are probably my favorite type as well, im excited that water finally got done
first he needs to finish the water types. he forgot a few.

WHY
I kid you not, as you were talking about Bibarel my Bidoof started evolving 😂
coming back to this old video i like the general consensus that if a pokemon is water type they can just breath underwater lol
16:54 empoleon is also slightly based off of poseidon,hence the trident on empoleon`s head
I remember hearing that the Egyptians thought that the night sky (space) was actually a huge sea...maybe that's the water type explanation for Palkia?
You know that makes sense
Ludicolo one of my favorite pokemon.
7:14 I wonder if Lock went back to video after seeing Basculegion
There's actually another reason behind the typings of the entire Creation Trio. Their typings are a reference to the three main forms of matter.
- Dialga represents solids, explaining the Steel type.
- Palkia represents liquids, hence the Water type.
- Giratina represents gas, which is why it's Ghost type.
wow didnt know that

I can’t even with you, right now.
Amazing, but how dare you
10:06 is what i'm here for.
Palkia also references one of the 3 main states of matter, that beeing liquid(Dialga is solid and Giratina is gas).
@OffBrandAnon being a ghost, as with the Ghastly line
Also "H" is the most Common element in the universe so water makes kinda sense
niels 36 what has hydrogen got to do with anything
@OffBrandAnon Because Giratina has the ability to turn his body into a black misty shadow like substance. And trying to punch a shadow in the face will be about as effective as trying to punch gas in the face.
@OffBrandAnon that's why I said main forms, I'm aware that plasma is also a state of matter but it isn't as common as the others.
Vaporeon. I immediately thought of Acid Armour
AznYunHou can't believe I didn't think of that after reading the manga. I was thinking castform

Actually Primarina is a Welsh siren known as a Selkie.
arent Selkies the seal-ish people who can remove their fur to become human????
Yep. But they can only go on land without the seal bit for about a year.
Also most sirens are actually bird women from Greek mythos, they are not normally mermaids.... but we just call Mermaids sirens cause why not...
@@rontheauraknight9606 Sirens were initially bird hoes but artists found that that didn't make much sense insofar as their association with water and ships, so they just started depicting them as merfolk instead
Actually, the Celtic mythos labels such beings as merfolk, but all are considered faerie folk.
10:47 we have ones that sometimes hang out in our bathtub turned animal water trough that collects springwater from our really old springhouse, I dont blame them for stopping by that water is amazing, most refreshing water ive encountered, never drank it, but I want to
Hey Loxton, whan are we going to get an updated version of this series? Where you talk about the newer Pokemon and why they aren't or are types they are.
Alligators release heat through there mouths?How don't we have a fire crocodile yet?
would be interesting. we have crocodile pokemon that live in the desert, and crocodiles/alligators are not far from salamanders, which are commonly associated with fire. a fire crocodile seems like an obvious choice for gen 8
Wouldn't having a fire-breathing (or just fire associated) reptile just make people question why it isn't a dragon, like that one other fire-breathing reptile that people questioned its non-dragon status for years?
Which leads to the question as to why there are so few dragon/fire types. Because one is a legendary (Resharim), one is a mega (Charizard X), and one is a tortoise (Turtonator).
Let's see. We have a water type croc/gator and we have a ... dark... ground... gator? So why not a fire gator?
@@Necrikus unless there's a croc dragon I don't think so
It's because fire breathing dragons arent common in the Japanese mythos that's a western thing. The two closest in style to a western dragon are charizard (not a dragon except its mega) and dragonite.
Actually palkia gets it's water type because the three legendarys giratina and dialga represent the three states of matter dialga is steel the solid form giratina is ghost the gas form palkia is water the liquid form.
Emilio H hell yeah my dude
Makes sense, but what about the 4th state of matter, plasma?
@@aquaotter253 idk arceus
@@emilioh8268 I thought it was Rotom
But then why not swap palkia and dialgas types?
Vaporeon because it has the same molecular concept of water so it can blend in with the water to hide from predators and prey and I think can also turn into ice or water vapour
That shot at ducklett was uncalled for, but fair
Suicune symbolises rain that stopped ember in tower where legendary beast burned and were resurrected by Ho-Oh
Exactly
Mistrz Demolki in the games but the real world inspiration is not that.
Good Video but a few mistakes that even I noticed on the first watch. Mostly Palkia and Suicune. Palkia is the liquid state of matter and Suicune is the rain that put out the fire from the thunderbolt. I think there was like a Pokemon Video on it when they did the whole important story bits in that Pokemon Origins animation. Also, its name means water. And if we're being correct the Aurora Borealis is like more electric then ice.

About palkia, you are right, but you could just have made palkia the time one, or just the steel one, and it would make more sense, since after all time flows, space seems much more solid than time and Giratina is perfect as it is.
@@AliceIsSleepy Space is about as unexplored as the ocean beneath us. And as for time yes it flows but it's also more structured then space. Time doesn't change because time isn't real. It's something we as a species made up.
if palkia is liquid (water), then that must mean dialga is solid (steel) and giratina is gas (ghost). nice
@Rick Harris it's only a reach cause you and me think differently
Rick Harris giratina would be antimatter

9:00 Disney should hire them.
Disney XD owns Aloha sun and moon.
Primarina is mostly inspired by the mythical creatures called Selkies; they take a seal-like form in the water that they can shed to become human-like on land. Just a little tidbit I thought should be included.
Most I've watched always miss that. They always mention Sirens and Mermaids. I can see how some would draw comparisons to Mermaids, since Primarina's lower body and tail are similar in theme and design, but I can't understand the Siren comparison. I remember Sirens having the body of a bird and the head of a woman.
I agree, Primarina is largely based off of Selkies. There might also be a little Mermaid inspiration, although that seems to be more of an aesthetic choice to style it up a bit.
@@Nekosage Sirens could be classified as a type of mermaid; they're the ones that are known for luring sailors to crash their ships into rocks with their voices and songs, and I have read somewhere that selkies are also known for their singing as well; that's why Primarina's main/most well known attacks are all based off of singing. I believe the creatures you're thinking about with the body of a bird and the head of a woman are harpies; a staple in Greek mythology.
@@emilyfrost3506
The first versions of Sirens that I legitimately remember seeing have the body of a bird and the head of a woman. That's how early Greek art depicted them:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siren_(mythology)
Here's the one on harpies:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harpy
Yes, the two are somewhat similar in form, but different in action. Sirens stayed around rocky areas of the sea to lure ships to crash into them, that is true. Harpies are known for snatching and eating people.
I remember Gaijin Goomba bringing up Selkies singing(and used the movie "Song of the Sea" as one of the examples) in his Primarina video.
"Selkies and the Endless Obsession" from Between the Buried and Me. You're welcome :)
Also the sirens
The most likely reason why Suicune is water and not ice is the whole Vaporeon theory but yes it is definitely more icy than watery
Yes Vaporeon IS water
But not Suicune..

I'm sure the eyes are just closed, and she has white eyelids.
It's a common stylistic choice, and it's probably just an oversight that the other Simis don't have em
