The Dragonair-Dragonite evolution is based on a legend in Korean mythology, where an Imugi, a snake, wants to become a dragon. That's what Dratini represents. Dragonair then has those pearls, which represent a Jewel called Yeouiju, and when an Imugi touches it, it can become a dragon. That is why it evolves into Dragonite
The editing and presentation of "whats a digimon?" was perfect. Top notch video. Honestly, if I didn't already know a lot of these pokemon, I think I wouldn't do much better than they did.
Fun fact, in legends Arceus for Octillery’s dex entry Lavenotn states that he doesn’t understand how remoraid evolves into it and when he told others that it did, they didn’t believe him.
@@Arts-N-Cats724 You've never heard of the Internet? I swear, people have a vast amount of data at their fingertips and they still can't look things up.
Can we all agree that Tauros not evolving into Bouffalant is still such a dumb decision? Also Luvdisc and Alomomola, like come on?? YOU WERE RIGHT THERE!
Apparently they were supposed to, along with Lilllipup being a pre-evolution to Growlithe, but then they decided that B/W were only gonna include Gen 5 pokemon so they scrapped the idea. Still stupid, but it makes a little sense if you squint
Funny enough with the shellder one, the thing on slowbros tail is technically a shellder. And in Pokemon Snap, you had to get a shellder to bite a slowpoke to get it to evolve. So technically both of those answers are correct.
This was awesome! Contestants were fun, the premise was creative, and I love how you gave context on each evolution to educate them after guessing. Please do more stuff like this!!
I'm a long time Pokémon and honestly I never knew why remoraid evolved into octilery or trapinch to vibrava until now, I feel so educated lol, anyways this video was amazing the quality, amazing, the commentary, amazing, the edits the trivia, you get the point it was all amazing!
@@superzockertvyt9630 same here, although the trivia about the gun and tank was something that I needed, because even tho I knew these guys evolutions, I could never understand why it was such a drastic change lol
There is actually a biological inspiration for the Shelmet/Karrablast evolution! Karrablast is inspired by a Scaphinotus beetle. Better known as a Snail-eating beetle! ...so yeah, Karrablast during the trade tries to eat Shelmet alive, takes its shell, while Shelmet just nopes out.
I always thought Slowpoke should have been another one of those situational evolutions. Like how you need at least one pokeball, and an empty slot to get Shedinja from Nincada. You should need to have a Shellder in your party to be able to evolve Slowpoke into Slowbro.
Gen 1 was coded in assembly. Our washing machine panels have better hardware than that lol. It would have been impossible to code for these conditions and checks. The Game boy advance was a much stronger machine so they could do that with Nincada.
Funny thing, they actually point out Dragonair's nonsense evolution in Journeys where Ash and Goh say "You'd think its evolution would look something like Milotic" which is also a sea serpent.
The fourth question was making me wonder whether or not the answer would've been both, or if it was to not include the slowbro technicality. Really fun video to watch!
Also, I've heard once that with Pokemon, you can never guess someone's favorite pokemon, because there's ALWAYS someone who likes a weird one. I freaking love that the one girl loved bastiodon enough to vote for him lol
I was expecting Remoraid into Octillery on this list because of course I was but making it the first four choice one was evil and hilarious. I need more of this content in my eye holes.
I love that you actually explained why they were that way, I didn't know about the gun to tank thing, or the antlion larvae to antlion. Cool idea, very fun to watch.
The last one should have been Eevee and all the eeveelutions with all of then being right, but if someone guesses ‘all of them’ they get all the points.
Gotta say, in their defense the Shelmet to Accelgor one is a little tricky even for seasoned pokemon fans to remember. I don't personally think much about Shelmet, Karrablast or their evolutions often unless I'm trying to remember what they evolve into for Pokedex reasons
This was such an awesome video! Set was great, wildly entertaining, and all the guests were funny and personable! I love content like this, great job Little Z!
The one with shellder, cloyster, and slowbro is a trick question, shellder evolves into cloyster on its own, but when it bites the tail of a slowpoke they join to evolve into a slowbro! The thing on slowbro’s tail is an evolved cloyster.
"how does a fish turn into an octopus?" remoraid turns into octillery. "How does it turn into a mosquito?" trapinch turns into vibrava. they found the right pokemon, then chose something else
The funny thing about Dragonair to Dragonite making no sense, they actually acknowledged this in the anime! In the most recent series there's an episode where Goh (Ash's companion/friend for the series) wonders about this thing and why it's not something serpentine.
Wonder how funny it would've been if you showed off the actual Pokemon evolving animation. Would've made things real intense.
Great idea
Hisulian evolution animation tho
This is a really good idea for the next one
I like your profile pic, cydiquil was my first ever johto starter and I played the original gold one.
This.
We need another one of these. This was so entertaining to watch.
Guess The Pokemon Type To Win $1000???
@@PacSmash oooh yeah
For the next one they should put the animation of the Pokémon evolving adding the susrprise fact jajaja
@@Miguel-rs4xl i didnt think of that, but truee
But with fake Pokémon thrown in for good measure
As a pokemon fan this was fun to watch, but it also hurts. The question with the Remoraid into Octillery was especially evil for newcomers!
Yeah, Ik wut u mean, I do too much pokemon
First time i played pokemon i thought remoraid evolved into mantine, since mantine always had a remoraid under its wing
Should have had mantine on the screen to be extra evil
They all were too evil lol
I always thought it evolved into Sharpedo as a kid but i never caught one to find out

Wow I never seen someone actually explain it before. But I wonder why it becomes a dumpy fat western dragon.
@@GippyHappyif it’s just a bigger serpent people won’t look into it and figure it out, they’ll just think it’s snakes
Now make Zack take a quiz about _any_ game other than Pokemon.
His score would be lower than Sheik's damage output.
We need to see this Little Z. 🙏
that would be hilarious. He should do it on his a little more z channel.
How many games are there that even have this kind of evolution style? The only two I can think about are Digimon and Spectrobes
And kill power, for that matter
Also we should also exclude smash…
@@QuokkaWaka yo-kai watch. But Digimon would be especially Evil

Any Digimon fans hearts would've exploded if they heard that.
lmao, if they think pokemon evolutions were weird... i would love to see them do digimon evolutions.

legit when i first played the original diamond i didnt know either.
id only find out like 5/6 years later
I straight up restarted my game cuz I save before evolving and I swear I restarted and evolved it so many times cuz I thought it was a glitch.
@@Arts-N-Cats724 You've never heard of the Internet? I swear, people have a vast amount of data at their fingertips and they still can't look things up.

Yeah, sadly they wanted Gen 5 to be a complete fresh start
Octillery and Grappleoct
He really should have done one of those with the trick answer being "It doesn't evolve into any of them!"

The educating part made me so happy, I love to see people learn about Pokémon :)
This was genuinely enjoyable, love seeing people baffled by the stuff pokemon fans see as normal
You should see yugioh a Tour guide gets you like nine cards of monsters from hell

$1000. He said that in the beginning :)

This was so much fun! I'm glad that Little Z is trying out new and different content. :)
Actually having some evolutions with trivia and not just random pokemon was a fantastic idea. So much more engaging than just random evolutions!
Great concept, production value through the roof with decors and all! Great vid :)
15:55 LMAO I love how you just added all of them
Funny thing, they actually point out Dragonair's nonsense evolution in Journeys where Ash and Goh say "You'd think its evolution would look something like Milotic" which is also a sea serpent.
If this was "who wants to be a millionare", then I would be a Billionare rn
"By bitch!" Sarah getting the last laugh is honestly a W in my book.
For the dragonair one, I think Milotic would have been a better option than Lapras. Awesome video!
They would be to similar
Maddi gets boned out of the win, but still shills with the Like & Subscribe. She really is the GOAT
The fourth question was making me wonder whether or not the answer would've been both, or if it was to not include the slowbro technicality. Really fun video to watch!
Zack is just a better version of Steve Harvey
I love Zack, but you better take that back right now. Steve Harvey is our lord and savior
Steve Harvey is the goat, so that's saying a lot
Bro really on black history month too 👁👁
(I’m joking btw)
Zack doesn't appear to have really gross opinions on gender, so I'm inclined to agree.
2 genders that’s how it works
Also, I've heard once that with Pokemon, you can never guess someone's favorite pokemon, because there's ALWAYS someone who likes a weird one. I freaking love that the one girl loved bastiodon enough to vote for him lol
Bro this guy has gone to another level with content
13:21 “how could a fish turn into the octopus?”
Famous last words
a little z collab video that requires 4 people.....but they're not the underdogs? What a twist
“They all kinda look like Pikachu.”
“Yeah”
I had actually never noticed how similar budew and swadloon look, Maddi got unlucky with that one
Zack's reaction to "what's a digimon?" lmao 11:31

We've been wondering that for years
Right after peter moves out this is what he does
sarah just *appearing* every once in a while is hilarious to me
People who answer it wrong.
Me:
6:56 really enjoying gen 1 ones. It does look like an evolution of Lapras even if they have no actual evolution. Big dragonite
I swear if Little Z wasn't doing TH-cam I could see him as a game show host
“OH YOU KNEW THE ANSWER? YOUR YOUR DISQUALIED”
Anyone else loving the Fun but Unique content by Little Z?
Yes
14:20 lol groudon chillin over there. It’s C
Adam is a World Champion, just not yet
8:37 "Maddi voting on which one she likes the look of most"
Immediate cut to Maddi holding up B and saying no. Had me spit my water out
This was such an awesome video! Set was great, wildly entertaining, and all the guests were funny and personable! I love content like this, great job Little Z!
"Idk how does that fish evolve into the Octopus?"
Excellent question
You should make more quiz type videos around pokemon, i love them (collab with hopcat would be awesome)
Maddi Rage lmao
Sarah: bye Bitch!! Lmao
Definitely need more gameshows 🤣 this was good
I always get a kick out of non-Pokémon fans doing Pokémon based tests
The Shelmet question was a big surprise, loved that
"I thought it was a crackhead" - Maddi on Shuppet. best line of video
The funny part of question 4 is that the thing biting on Slowbro's tail is actually a Shellder, although it looks nothing like one.
I love the pichu into every pretty much every single pikachu clone.
Honestly Octillery and Remoraid should’ve stayed they’re original designs, it was such a cool idea
Can’t believe he never explained why Slowbro was even an option. Technically, both answers were correct.
"Do we have timer?"
"IT'S A 2 OPTIONS MULTIPLE CHOICE!"
1:40 ah it evolves into venomoth,the other one is butterfree from caterpie
There should have been a bonus question like what does eevee evolve into and then there would be all the eeveelutions.
Maddie: "Like and subscribe!"
Sarah: "Bye, bitch"
Lmfao
The one with shellder, cloyster, and slowbro is a trick question, shellder evolves into cloyster on its own, but when it bites the tail of a slowpoke they join to evolve into a slowbro! The thing on slowbro’s tail is an evolved cloyster.
The pain on his face when Sarah asked what a Digimon was. Priceless.
6:07 is cinder both
8:16 ah that’s the one who evolves into salamance,from uh bagon. The other one’s from a pokemon named Sheldon or something lol
“What a Digimon” reaction was priceless
In true game show host fashion, smart people are boring.
This was great. I would have liked the reveals to be actual evolutions clips from the games. It would put more expectation on it
At 5:50 Shellder can “Help” evolve with slowpoke, to slowBro, but cloister is the Evolution of Shellder
"How does an egg turn into a mosquito?" Insects hatch from eggs milady.
"how does a fish turn into an octopus?" remoraid turns into octillery.
"How does it turn into a mosquito?" trapinch turns into vibrava.
they found the right pokemon, then chose something else
-world champion at Pokémon
-Liar

Why does Zack look like he's about to defend his best friends after they've been accused of murder?
"they could just add babies when ever they want" I agree with that
I never thought of how similar some of these pokemon looked until watching this wow
You gotta do another one of these, it’s so good! It’s actually how I found this channel

The funny thing about Dragonair to Dragonite making no sense, they actually acknowledged this in the anime! In the most recent series there's an episode where Goh (Ash's companion/friend for the series) wonders about this thing and why it's not something serpentine.
Shellder helps out with Slowbro’s evolution so it kinda counts.
“I thought it was a crackhead”
Poor Banette
I bet zack thought for a moment about bringing the underdogs on the show, and then remember that Peter is a pokemon nerd.
We absolutely need another one of these. This was AMAZING!
"Why would a fish turn into an octopus?"
Good question
This is one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made! So creative and funny
This man really did just flip rocks until he found people
4:38 both kind of
Man, imagine being disqualified from a quiz show because you "already knew the answer" to a question.
"What's a Digimon?" Lol, one thing at a time.
