We could see megas return in Pokémon legends Arceus, and here's how would it go. After u completed the sinnoh region's first ever Pokedex, the professor reports u back to the headquarters to see if u completed the Pokedex (and u did) the professor congrats u on completing it and he gives u a second starter Pokémon that's already fully evolved as a reward (so u won't have to grind it up to ur team) the starters r Sceptile, Cynderace, or Greninja. And the other reward is the Azure flute something the professor found while exploring Mount coranet. But after u got the rewards, sphere pillar exploded, u and the rest of the Galaxy exploration team headed over there to see what's going on, u went there to only discovered that it was the captain of the team did the explosion. The reason y that happened so she can capture the god of Pokémon, Arceus!! And how the captain founded Arceus with out the Azure flute, is tracking it with an Arceus tracker, it allows the captain to well...TRACK ARCEUS!!! U tried to stop her, but the captains bisharp won't t let u through. U took it down with ur Pokémon team. After u took it down, Arceus showed up with the Azure flute that the Bisharp grabbed from ur pocket after the captain played it. The captain says the following, "Arceus, the Pokémon who made this world, I command u to join me and we can make a new world and a new universe, and I'll capture u with the red chain and the master ball (which is made by u and the professor) l will capture u right here right now!!!!" When she said that, the devil of the Pokémon world, giritina showed up, (this is when megas come to play) not only that, a meteorite popped up behind u and the Galaxy exploration team, u discovered that a key and mega stone (one for ur second starter of choice) U r able to pick it up and have no idea what they r supposed to be. U attached the mega stone on ur second starter Pokémon and then giritina took the captain to the distortion world (it's the same thing back in Pokémon platinum) U chased the captain down in the distortion world and then u founded the professor and the leader of the Galaxy exploration team saying "Leader: alright captain u either stop this or get lost and never comeback!!" "Professor: yeah u tell em sir!!!" And then the captain was irritated and then she attacks u. Her team would be Bisharp, tyranitar, hisuian braviary, Gengar, the starter that's stronger against u, and Arceus (that has the plate and type strong against u and it's shadow and it's has the shadow type) (and ur second starter has to mega evolve before the battle begins) after u beated the captain, she steps aside, u walked up to giritina and u battled and captured it and then u, the professor, and leader left the distortion world. And the captain is nowhere to be seen. And everything is back to normal and u time traveled back to the modern day of sinnoh with ur team of Pokémon
What did u think about the story I made if megas returns to Pokémon legends Arceus 🤔🤔🤔
3 option: people collect Appletun dandruff for food.
You forgot about the Porygon episode in the death tally.
Your evil laughter was really funny
Please remember those dex entries were subbmited by a troll kid long time ago (around the time where Legends Arceus game takes place). :P
The Appletun fact probably is a reference to reptiles shedding skin and having new skin underneath since Appletun is a dragon and dragons are reptilian
I was about to mention that.
@@PlayrR3D156 It's also an apple pie dragon
@Katherine Nyoo That's true I have a leopard gecko that does that
Big brain.
@@haydenlaw1484 Pretty much. More like apple turnover but that's essentially bri'ish apple pie so yeah.
To clarify, Shudo's "methods" (drinking, getting high ecc.) were already very much common during the writing of his works, Pokèmon was not the first project were he felt like using substances or alchool to find his inspiration. However, the whole Pokèmon project DID cause a lot of discomfort because of the many changes he had to do to his writings, both for the main series and the first three movies. The change of the protagonist was not his only idea, many deeper subjects were cut off since his superiors eventually decided to go for a series much more focused on kids then anything else. Yet he kept on going because he still believed in the project itself.
He really must be acknowledged for what he did for our beloved franchise
I viewed this video because the title provoked my curiosity, of course! Sad about the deaths of artists and others. Surprised there was no mention of shuckle juice.
different protagonists would’ve been so cool…
@@yourfriendlyneigborhoodzom953 The manga Pokémon Adventures seems to touch a bit onto that, so maybe check it out!
@@yourfriendlyneigborhoodzom953 Well maybe someone can animate the manga someday.
@@FernandoRafaelNogueiraReis I DID I DID I GOT THE FIRST BOOK WITH ALL THE CHAPTERS
Since Appletun IS a dragon type I wonder if the "skin" on its back sheds like scales, and maybe people in Galar "shear" the top layer off like shearing wool off a Mareep or Wooloo?
Yeah I'm pretty sure it probably just moults and the shedded skin is like eating a flaky pastry
@@crocusgymjo9432 Mmhm. And, don't Slowpoke tails pop off on their own too?
@@Songal18 yep they can just pop off and grow back
I forget what its called but I know of this kind of reptile that makes a special tasty nutritious shed skin snack for its hatchlings. I always assumed it was based on that.
@@crocusgymjo9432 So it wouldn't be unheard of for Appletun to shed it's top layer, probably so it can grow bigger. And it may not even hurt it at all, not unless you start digging into it's literal body flesh.
The thing is, I also always pictured Lugia as female and I actually remember Lugia being voiced by a woman when I watched it in the cinema way back then (German version). It was a surprise that when I found the DVDs many years later and watched those that Lugia was voiced by a man. I guess there could be a possibility that the cinema version had a different voice-over than the DVD version. Probably a very unusual possibility. But why else would I always have thought of Lugia as female and being voiced by a woman?
I didn't even watch the cinema version and still thought that Lugia is female. Probably because the name sounds very female, since it's ending with an a.
I haven’t watched the movies since I was a child so I have no comment on the voice but I thought it was female because it’s kin is there? Aren’t there two Lugias a huge parent figure and baby one? Not saying dad aren’t kings 👑 but I always thought it was a mother and child.
Maybe because Lugia gave birth in the anime.
There was an anime episode revolving around a female lugia and her baby being targeted by Team Rocket, idk if it has any relation at all to the movie but it's something to keep in mind.
Lugia is female just like Mewtwo is male. I can't hear them having any other voice.
There's also the fact that people used to take Darumaka's dumplings and put it in their clothes to keep them warm, that book in Pokemon Platinum wich, in the japanese text, implies that people and pokemon used to get married, the several ghost pokemon who are actually dead humans, and the many weird pokemon couples that can breed together (Wailord and Skitty, Gardevoir and Muk, Sandacobra and Rattata, etc.)
Breeding was never a 'real' Mystery though,
people just didnt wanted to 'know' because they like the Memes
and such.
But it was always obvious that they dont reproduce like Real Life Animals.
Birdkeeper toby made a Video about this, 15 Years after i realized
all of it myself as a lil kid (so bravo to all who never did... oof...)
I always wondered why people are so gung-ho about Skitty and Wailord, especially since Wailord can breed with a friggin Diglett. An 8" tall Diglett.
You mean "droppings", which is yeah, shit. I doubt Darumakas could be trained to make dumplings considering their bodies are like literally round, and their tiny limbs can't possibly help much with kitchen work.
People back in the day would hold hot potatoes in their pockets during winter and then eat it later for lunch.
Wouldn’t Beautifly’s prey be flowering Pokémon?
And it’s just drinking nectar, so, less horrifying
For the most part yes, but butterflies have been known to drink blood on occasion so that’s probably a fact that they drew inspiration from too
And besides, flowering Pokemon are still sentient beings, imagine leaving your small Gossifleur at home and coming back to find a swarm of Beautifly sucking the life out of it lol.
Butterflies "eat" sweat, blood, and crap.... along with nectar.
not for sunfloras or bulbasaurs (or any other flowering mons)
They also eat dead animals.
Wow, that Ash's mom fact got me feeling old as crap considering I'm 32 and I didn't have my first kid until I was 28. Man time sure does fly by....
Taking mine to her first regionals in the Spring!
Im 34 and had my 1st one at 21. I feel old too
I'll be 39 in October. My first child was born when I was 23; my second child was born when I was 32.
Takeshi Shudo was someone that gave up his own happiness to make others happy I respect that man. :(
I believe there's this kind of amphibian that makes a special tasty nutritious shed skin snack for its hatchlings. I always assumed it was based on that.
I just assumed Appletun's back is like shearing wool off of sheep; you do it to keep the animal comfortable. It just happens to work out that Appletun's back skin is edible and tasty, like how wool can be spun into clothing.
Pretty much all animals that shed their skin have been known to eat their shed. Letting their young eat it makes sense too. It's a form of nutrition. After shedding/molting, animals will eat their sheds because their bodies are soft and sensitive. Eating the shed with sustain the creature until they are strong enough to hunt again.
@@onetallpheeesh I remember when I was a kid I would get so excited to go to the beach, we would all get as red as we could, and then wait about a week and started peeling. We would eat for a few days on that. Great with Barbecue sauce, preferably sweet baby ray's.
Caecilians
Most if not every reptile eat there own skin it makes sense for an apple dragon worm thing to get it's necter eatan as it's a plant so it will just regrow it.
8:10 Yeah I was pretty surprised when Lugia had a male voice. Lugia always felt more feminine to me, especially since we literally saw one protecting its baby at some point in the show (I know males can too, it's just more associated with females).
I'm pretty sure you have the tourchic thing wrong...its almost impossible to tell the difference between a male and female chick. So in Japan they were able to use selective breeding to have it so male chicks had a small spot on there back. And that way it was easy to tell the difference between a male amd female... just saying.
This is much more likely it - you can even see in the footage he used that the spot on male Torchic is off-centre, so it wouldn't be a cloaca or anything.
I onion kill kill killed kand my dog k🐶 and g in hh g. Hubby
I personally feel the facts about Iwata and Shudo are facts fans should be more aware of. As sad as they are, they are good evidence of the love and dedication put into the franchise and could be a good way of reminding entitled fans that the reason their demands aren't met isn't because of a lack of care.
A fact you don't want to know, but a fact you SHOULD know
Uhm, Yes and No?
People are not entitled for wanting Quality,
so thats a Big Oopsie by your Side.
You dont directly say it but you do 'imply' something hilariously stupid:
"Theres nothing wrong with the Franchise; everyone doing constructive
critcism is DUUUUMB. I dont like theeeem!" Which is cringe, tbh.
@Andrew Cheng Uhm, Yes and No?

@Andrew Cheng No one and i mean NO ONE says they never did care.
But nowadays, its clearly ridiculous how much of a Fluff they give.
May i remind you of the objective fact that
Sword and Shield were NOT JUST Rushed? Cause duh?
@@slevinchannel7589 no one ever implied that
After watching this, I now know what Thanos meant about being cursed with knowledge
He surely is NOT cursed with the knowledge how ecosystems work though.
**** that's a hell of a connection 😂😂😂 love this comment
@@catriamflockentanz Can't a person make a joke and reference?
@@dhanushs.s2093 I love your comment as well
The Beautifly stuff wasn't news to me, and so I'll ask again what I've been asking; why can't it learn Leech Life? From a practical standpoint there's no need, but thematically it'd fit so well.
At least in BDSP it does
@@luizbezerra4373 I did notice that! I like they finally made that a thing.
@@IAmMissingnoMaster now we just need Roserade to learn Vine Whip and Power Whip haha
I think a leech stab move would fit better
Beautifly and Gorebyss are probably the most metal Pokemon. Not steel type but metal. They listen to Evanescence and Creed.
Don't forget the new guy Basculegion!
Add Papa Roach to that list.
Did you just suggest that evanescence and creed are metal?
I do want to point out one important factor in this: as much as Takeshi Shudo's facts in this video are sad and/or inspiring, I also want to point out that *most* of the darker aspects of the Pokemon World also came from Shudo's vision of the Pokemon World. It was very much NOT a nice place in his mind, with more details such as Gym Leaders being fired after only three losses (or something to that effect), and the fact that, if he were to have free control of the plot and had lived on to follow through, his vision would have seen the Anime culminate in Meowth and Pikachu leading Pokemon in a united *revolution* against Humankind. Yes, Team Rocket's Meowth and Ash's Pikachu.
While his death was tragic, I for one am glad his vision for the show was ultimately *not* followed.
There are male police officers in the anime. There are also male doctors (like Dr. Proctor) and the Melemele Island Pokémon Center had male nurse uniforms. So much for that idea.
Those guys are the exception to the rule though. They're the ones that "Made it"
@@mavisthephoenix5697 - Be that as it may, they still clearly exist, contrary to what the video implied.
@@hollyhartwick3832 the video said that MOST men fail, not all of them.
@@Sonchikas1 - It’s been a while, but I recall the video also saying there were no men in those professions. I was simply pointing out that, though it may be far less common, the peripheral evidence seems to indicate otherwise.
I always thought the Pokémon anime should do the Digimon approach -- have a new protagonist every new generation. Happy that Mr. Shudo had a similar idea as well; very sad he's gone and the Pokemon series generally didn't care about what he thought :(
they actually did this in the Pokemon Adventures manga, makes me wish they would animate it
@@yellowcaballero Yes, I love the manga series!
'Every' aint needed, its probably too much,
but yeah, 'NEVER' is definetly not enough, duh.
Yea they do it in the games they should do it in the animie .
It also would have helped with the change in animation style. Most of the characters in the last few seasons look alright but Ash looks like crap because we are used to seeing him in the other art style.
That mouth part that the Pokedex is referring to on beautifly is called a proboscis and it's essentially the mouth parts that pretty much any bug that feeds from flowers has but it is possible that they could also use it for sucking up body fluids but literally a proboscis is designed to drink from flowers
1: butterflys will also drink blood.
2: mosquitos, bedbugs, and assassin bugs also have a proboscis and those are strictly hemocarnivorus.
How many know that Red and Gold are not 10 years old kids in the games but they are canonically 11 years old kids instead? Hand up if you knew this.

Hilda is 14 in Black and White
The thing with Appletun is probably that the apple that Applin uses as its home has fused with the pokemon itself during evolution. I doubt it has any nerves or blood vessels in that part of its body, so it's basically fine. Still weird to think about tho
Hoops:... you don't wanna know...
Me: this man challenges me
Did you know Vivillon's dex number is 666. And Cherubis is 420...
There's an other reason for the dot on Torchick that has real life meaning. With farms that deal with chickens, the way they separate the male and female chicks is by a feather. It happens to be in the same area that we would see on Torchick.
TORCHIC DOES NOT END WITH A K!
Despite the awkward implications that in the Pokemon world age 10 is considered an adult age, I’d wanna know whose idea was it to make it that way and why?
if you remove the morality blinders of our world, and look at it with the perspective of an alien world full of danger lurking about every corner, it makes more sense. I don't agree at all with kids so young being able to be out and about as adults, but in a world with monsters both powerful and dangerous, the average lifespan would be far younger than our own world's lifespan and therefore the age of adulthood would be lower as well to compensate for it.
If you just think about it without applying Earth standards and look at cultural standards of an alien world, you see the context and perspective better, in my opinion at least. (I do a lot of writing and deep thought on these things, and do write things that I myself don't agree with but it fits into the culture of what I am writing)
Basically it's what the guys at TV Tropes call a Voodoo Shark. Aka, an example of why sometimes it's best not to answer the questions of hot-takers that insist an audience should never be expected to suspend disbelief.
In a world where ash basically is 10 until now, I don't think getting married at age ten is bad, if most people I'm the word perpetual stay immortal or age very very slow that 10 years in our world is not even a year in ash's world
@@rainfallen7574 I would agree, but the games and anime are riiddddllled with the elderly. And kids.
I think a simpler way to put it that would also agree with your idea is to think of it as a legal age to own what is essentially a weapon.
Because it's Japan obviously.
Hoops bringing the tears
😧😢
That's sad to hear how creator died
I think he just wrote for the anime, the creator is alive. Still sad though.
That’s just the writer for the anime, the creator of pokemon, junichi masuda, is still alive
@@tomasestrada5819 *Satoshi Tajiri. Junichi Masuda was one of the people who founded Game Freak and worked on the original R/G alongside him and Ken Sugimori.
I find that explanation about why there are so many Jennys and Joys utter BS. Why are almost all the professors male then? Not to mention the thousands of successful male characters that have been featured in the anime.
Those are the few successful exceptions. Not all male trainers end up badly, but most do.
I guess those are the pokemon trainers that were successful notice how most of those characters have a career in Pokemon.
Not to mention the many female pokemon trainers that follow the same steps as their male counterparts in all routes and cities from every pokemon region.
It'd be more logical to say that being a pokemon trainer is necessary because pokemon can be dangerous to human in the wild. In order to transport and live safely people have to learn to capture and use pokemon.
This is proven by the fact that most people in the pokemon world are shown to have at least one pokemon as companion.
Plus the fact that there are literally trainer schools as part of their basic education.
So my guess is that everyone goes through a "phase" of being a trainer before moving on to something else.
I guess the writers of the novels wanted to make some cheap social commentary on Japan. But it really doesn't hold up to everything else that they've written.
I'm glad that mindset wasnt put in the main game. There's so much a person can learn at any age, and while there can be physical/mental hurdles with trying new things at an older age, it should be something to promote as a positive instead of just writing those hypothetical men off as hopeless just cause they didnt learn career-building stuff in their late teens/20s. (plus there's plenty of guy cops in the newer games lol)
funny thing is pokemon isn't the only franchise to do that as fire emblem has merchant character named anna thats appears in many fire emblem as sometimes with more than one of her and is pretty much the same as they say there all sisters who have different jobs but most of the same traits like joy and jenny in pokemon.
For the torchick one, I heard another, less grotesque, reason for the small speck. So basically male chicks have a very minimal discoloration of some feathers that only people that know how to look for can see it, but I'm not a farmer so of this is wrong lmk my farmer freinds
When Ash's mom came up, I half expected Ash's mom to have some sort of secret depression or something. Im so glad i was wrong.
I was expecting something equally bad… I’m glad we were both wrong…
oh,she had that too. that same novel also explains that ash's mom was always unhappy with the fact that her husband left her to raise their son to become a pokemon trainer (despite the fact that it was always her dream but she could never live it because she had to help her parents run their inn and by the time they both died,she already had ash to take care of) but she made a point never to let ash think poorly of his father (though when he asked about him,she basically told him to look him up on the computer and see that his father was a loser that sucked at pokemon training and thus wasn't even listed as a trainer). so ya,it was for sure there.
I'm officially older than Ash's mom, Son of a Jinx!!!
I am 2 years older than Ash's mom.
I'm still younger than his mom but only 4 years.
Now I know your age.
Jynx can't have sons though...
Sadly because Pokemon is pretty much an obsession I knew these. ADHD always has me do deep dives into things I love and am very passionate about but I still love hearing them!
i lack the ADHD advantage but am still a huge pokemon nerd so i only knew most of these.XD
I have ADHD and I’m like that too! Whenever I find something I love I dive deep, and I mean really deep into them!
Adding to Fact 10: I think everyone knows of the massive hospitalisation of children in Japan who got epilepsy from the Porygon episode which is why this particular Pokémon never appeared in the anime anymore.
When he showed the deaths the top one was someone died when trying to catch a pikachu when he "refused to give a mugger $5 and a cigarette so he was stabbed in the neck". Damn dude being killed over a couple bucks is rough.
Let's be hardcore rebels and watch the video anyways.
Yes.
I mean, I wouldn't count the one about the nintendo dude as something I didn't want to know. I'm glad I know it, it makes me want to learn more about him, to cherish, and honor his memory and wishes, and to realize how wonderful it is that he had such true dedication to this. It makes me appreciate looking at the GO game overall in a totally different perspective.
This is amazing. Especially torchic's butt and that Nurse Joy Officer Jenny / all boys being losers. Holy shit that was dark
All boys being losers offend me and now i am convinced the pokemon world judge people by gender
@@Tblz981 it's also been stated that ash get's new female companions because he needs "eye candy". so i think pokemon evened itself out as far as gender goes.
well he did miss that there’s background police characters that are boys
Well professor Oak did pretty alright for himself. All things considering.
I’m surprised that when he was talking about the deaths Pokémon has associated with it that he didn’t talk about the porygon episode of the anime
If i remenber right no one actualy died there
Porygon? Is that Pokemon everyone forgot?
I assume the whole attacking its prey aspect from Beautifly might come from the phenomenon where butterflies are seen drinking blood from dead bodies. I think they also drink urine, as it has to do with salt cravings.
Wait… the thing about Joy and Jenny seems like BS. If that’s true, then shouldn’t the same thing be happening to female Pokémon trainers as well??? Shouldn’t the girl trainers also be losing out on the opportunities to gain other skills????
My thought and I also thought it was canon is
Wasn’t there a giant war that killed all the men and isn’t that the reason the player characters don’t have dads till gen 7
@@gimpsickle5806 err, gen 3. norman is the father of the player character.
@@Dannystar64 yea
@@Dannystar64 theres also Prof Birch and Dawn/Lucas' father (the professor working for Rowan)
I’m just speculating here, but I think it fits the time frame.
On the first two generations (barring Crystal) both of the protagonists were male which implies that it wasn’t as common for girls to set out to be Pokémon trainers. This changed of course in later generations, but the original idea was still there.
If you want to think of it a different way when it comes to Appletun and children eating his flesh consider the fact that he is a dragon which is a kind of lizard. Lizards shed their skin so it could be quite possible that the sweet skin the children eat has been shed from Appletun's back as they were growing new skin underneath.
And a lot of lizards eat their own skin (which my pet lizard does)
That is actually even more gross...
Ash’s dad went to the store to get milk and never came back.
He went to Johto because that's where miltanks are, but unfortunately, he stopped to see the Kimono Girls' show and called out an encore, and you can't go back to Kanto if you know how to encore.
Always happy to learn new things about the series that practically owns my life, lol. Thank you, Hoops!
If 10 is an adult in the Pokémon world then Ash’s mom having a child at 19 is actually not that crazy
I knew all of these things lol
also: I remember when I was a little kid I had never heard of the anime novelizations, but I headcanoned that ten was the legal age of adulthood and kids could get married. Lots of stories about kids marrying and having fully fledged lives on their own...they might not have even hit puberty yet, but they were allowed to own property, marry, and do taxes!
I viewed the Appleton thing as similar to the Tropius neck-fruit.
It’s kind of the same but Appleton’s Pokédex Entry is just MORBID.
Great videos, dude! You're now one of my favorite Pokétubers! I'm really pleased to see you and BirdKeeperToby collaborating on the fakemon series now too!
Honestly, marrige isn't the scariest part, about 10-year olds beeing conidered adults.
What is about alcohol for example?
And on the other hand, in the anime Brok states that Ash and Misty are to young to drink coffee, and they are defenetly considered children there.
So that whole story dosen't really work.
That could very well be a dub thing, I wouldn't be surprised if that was meant to be sake in the original.
Coffee milk is a common kid's drink so being "too young" is a bit odd in context. Sake on the other hand is often drank warm sorta like a hot toddy.
i would think that the worst part is that they can legally have sex,not just with each other but with people that would be legal adults in OUR world as well.
Brock probably meant it in a joking way since he's older than the two
I watched 8 seasons of pokemon fully in Japanese and Brock never said that at all at any episode, probably it's only in the dub version
I checked the death tracker and i'm sorry but i found it hilarious that in Mars the 1st,2017.
A man died of heart attack after catching Lapras
6:02 I actually have two of these novels. The best expansion in my opinion is the character "Dexter", which is literally Ash's PokéDex given a personality. They revisited this idea way later, didn't they? -> Rotom-Dex
They german translation is kinda weird at some points though. Having Ash's hat constantly referred to as his "Käppi" is kinda annoying to be honest.
6:39 We can take this even further:
29+25=54 So (if the passage of time in the Pokémon Anime wasn't not a thing) Delia might be about as old as Professor Oak, when we first met him, who would likely be dead...
11:50 To be fair: That the people in the Pokémon World eat (parts of) their world's animals isn't surprising at all.
One fact that Hoops didn't bring up from the Pokemon anime novels that Pikachu will die if it runs out of electricity.
Ash’s mom is 29?! Wow I didn’t know that since I thought she was like 32 or in her late 30s.
Practically the same age
@@spockhozzer7207 What do you mean?
I mean there's basically no difference between 29 and 32
@@rainbowdragon168 That's only a 3 year difference. I was expecting her to be somewhere between her late 30's and mid 40's.
@ZackTheAllMighty 19
TBH, I was not expecting that fact that explained Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny....I literally went "well now...."
Strangely enough, if you think about it, ten years of age does seem accurate for that world to be considered an adult in if you think about the setting of it. Not that I agree with it, but putting into perspective for a minute to explain while not excusing this fact:
this is a world inhabited by dangerous and powerful monsters and we don't really see too many old people in that world outside of a handful of npcs. Most are probably at oldest with the average, in their twenties or thirties with the rare few making it past fifty like some of the professors and gym leaders or elite four. Lifespans on average are likely far lower as a result of more dangers there, so age of adulthood would be lower too to compensate.
I don't like that fact, but perspective wise, it makes sense. Especially as this is not our world, but an alien world with magical monsters inhabiting it. Removing our world's morality from it and applying context of an alien world, culturally for them it makes sense. Even if we don't agree with that morality in our own world where it IS problematic for a ten year old to be doing Adult things.
(I do a lot of writing and deep thought on these things, and do write things that I myself don't agree with but it fits into the culture of what I am writing)
I hope Ace Trainer Liam doesn't get to see that second last one. 😂
Man I feel bad for that Shudo guy, all he wanted was for the anime to take different direction, I personally would have loved the idea of a new main character for the anime, or maby and entirely different kind of pokemon anime were ash would be a background character.
"I'm not sure why you clicked on this video" sir I'm dyslexic and misread the titled but I am staying for the ride anyways
I mean, the more I hear about the head anime writer, the more I realize just why he didn't have as much control over the anime as he wanted. Wanting Lugia to be female is fine and reasonable (though not at all worth obsessing over to the point of death), but eleven year olds marrying each other is definitely not.
Right? Just the thought of kids being regarded as adults at that age, I mean, what's stopping a 40 year old from marrying them? And marrying pkmn too? Eww. Dude had issues. I'm glad some of his creativity was curbed.
The one I regretting knowing the most was the torchic one
Alternative reading for Ash's mom fact: we're now the right age to find her hot without it being awkward 😏
You do know some Pokémon fans are girls, and kids still right?
@@ZipTheSilliest
Have you watch the video? If so you'd know exactly what part of it I'm referring to.
Also, my wife crushes on Ash's mom harder than I do, I'll assume you're not trying to displace gay or bi women and it was just the force of habit tho.
@@OtakuJuanma2 ohh nvm
@@OtakuJuanma2 the fact that your wife have a crush on a fictional character is a tad bit concerning. Tho I assumed it was a healthy crush
@@naganut9718
It would be concerning if we couldn't distinguish between fiction and reality.
"Hehe if she was real I'd love to have a relationship with her" isn't the same as say obsessing over a fictional character.
The one concerning thing is that your knee jerk reaction was to assume any mentally stable adult would be the second option 😬
3:18 And I just remembered that one clip from that anime about the students stuck on an island full of giant bugs.
I was twice Ash’s age when I started Pokémon, while Yellow was still the newest version. I actually got into the cards first as I was introduced to them while I was in the Magic: The Gathering tournament scene. I got into Yu-Gi-Oh! the same way.
I'll be 39 in October. I started playing Magic: The Gathering in 1997; I still play it. I got into Pokemon during the Jungle expansion and continued until the Aquapolis set; unfortunately, my now ex-wife threw out 95% of my Pokemon cards.
@@vexx8451 - Pretty similar to my start. I got into MTG around the time of Chronicles and Ice Age and started in Pokémon between Jungle and Fossil. Due to needing to lighten my load because of an eviction in 2004, I ended up selling a big chunk of both collections, but have since rebuilt. Condolences on the loss of your cards. Good to hear she's an ex if she can't respect your hobbies, especially ones with monetary value as well. I'm fortunate enough now to be with someone who understands and supports my gaming, both cards and video games. Doesn't share my love of Pokémon, but doesn't criticize and listens when I talk about it. We even went to the Detective Pikachu movie together opening morning. Got me a second pack of the special promo cards. If only everyone could have someone so supportive.
I must say Pokemon often comes with dark or weird backstories and I like to see them. I really appreciate this video despite the fact that you were asking us to click off multiple times.
And I'm pretty sure these are not the darkest facts I have heard. May I ask for a second video of this?
I love the puns in the beginning
Of a beautiful butterfly
i’d like to imagine that Mr Shudo would be happy that the anime is getting a new protagonist. after all this time, his wishes for the series were finally realized
In such Situations I like to imagine what if there's really an Afterlife? Like if his Spirit still exists in some Form and in some Way he hears of this. Does he feel some Kind of Relief?
May he rest in peace now!
Yo dude great video! I doubt it was from what i commented a few videos ago but you hardly used the word "literally" which made watching the video alot smoother and more professional. Keep up the great work!
I mean, it's canon in the games that Pokemon are also hunted and eaten. It's even mentioned in some of the origin folklore in BDSP. So using an Appletun as a food source isn't that far out there.
Wow, I was ashs age when I started watching pokemon. And now I'm the same age as his mom 🥲😅
Imagine in Pokemon someone squeezed you know what out of a blaziken to determine it's gender
Beautifly: I can only use Gust.
Butterfree: I can learn Air Slash
Torchic: Teriyaki.
The one about Jenny and joy's employment is double sexist and actually makes no sense
Cause firstly for the girls, is basically comes down that most girls are not allowed to become a trainer (while the anime shows enough of both genders that makes you think it's pretty much equal and nearly all kids are trainers)
And for the boys it basically implies that if they can't become a trainer, then they can't do anything and are utterly worthless trash (yet again if you watch the anime you find enough males who are successful in live and normal people after having had their fill of being a trainer full time)
The booklet has failed miserably with that one
I'm about to be Ash's new step dad 😂
Lol
look at ash's mom and that mr.mime on vacation: too late,bub.
Beautifly's Japanese name is actually pronounced as Aa-gé-hant (Agehunt アゲハント).
The people in the Pokemon World being legally adults at 10 is kinda what I had already figured.
In my opinion iwata fact is not dark. He still pursued want he wanted till the end.
Didn't expect the facts Takeshi Shudo and Satoru Iwata, which was quite emotional.
Spoink should be on this list. The Pokédex says (idk which one) that when spoink bounces, the motion makes its heart pump. if it stops, it dies
Hands down one of your best videos ever.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it!! 😊
I would've expect the whole Vaporeon mating stuff
Hey guys, did you know that in terms of-(chokes and dies)
I've experienced two weeks of angry mixed with apathy due to fucky mental health but the Iwata fact made start crying because it was just both too sad and too wholesome not to cry over.
Looks like the Nintendo ninjas cut the onions to cure my apathy. Thanks Pokeymanz 🤙
*thinks about naming her/their next Likitung Shakuhachi now just for kicks XD*
Some of these can be disturbing, to funny as hell, to heartbreaking. All and all I don't regret clicking on the video. :D
Wait....so if in Legends Arceus Wurmple's new spike on the back of its head means a new evolution or new forms for beautifly......then im scared to see how agressive it might be
I wouldn't have guessed that the Pokemon world is full of a lot of deadbeat men.
Adding that the masculine voice for Lugia was a big deal for Shudo because Lugia was meant to be a maternal figure, rather than just a preference for voice.
7:14 yeah I saw a video about this a little while ago it was sad to hear and hearing about it again still hurts
If we are the same age or older than ash's mom....that explains why they slowly started to have her appear more often in the show...
Don't tell me what to do. I'm gonna want to know them and I will know them. Also gonna like your video and subscribe. Take that.
Edit:
Holy shit I could ask Ash's mom out on a date.
Excuse me what the fuck
Would you really want Ash Ketchum as a stepson, though?
@@jaschabull2365 He'd rarely be at home so it's ok
gotta be super careful of beautifly in legends arceus
Wow i knew about Takeshi being sad about Lugia, but knowing he wanted a different direction for the anime and the stress of not having that honoured ultimately killed him is just tripley sad.
Knowing the man who created my favourite Pokemon died from literal stress really makes you sad and a little angry that his wishes weren't honoured. I mean really what was the harm in having a new protagonist take over anyway.
The whole "ten year olds are considered adults in every way" thing is contradicted in the anime by Brock saying to/about multiple girls that would then be considered adults "I'm looking forward to you in eight years," which implies that they aren't actually considered adults romantically until they are eighteen. Aside from that, the rest of these are either true or plausible
A few of those might have been dub-exclusive written by people who hadn't read the novelization (if it had even existed that early). Plus, if they were 10, they would probably have looked more attractive to Brock later, when they'd gone through puberty.
@@jaschabull2365 Actually, that was the Japanese line. He says it twice to my knowledge, but the dub changed them to "Hey, do you have an older sister?" and the infamous "She can violate my rights any time."
I just expected cursed facts. You should have warned us about the sad one.
I can tell you REALLY wanted to see a lot of cursed things, given your cursed user icon.
"You don't want to watch this!"
The 74K people: *How bout I do, anyway?*
I already knew about Lickitung's hidden pun thanks to DidYouKnowGaming's Lost Pokédex series.
Wait, isn't lickitung's dex number the same as spiritomb's signature number?
Isn't spiritomb's signature number a reference to temptations faced by Buddhists?
IS EVERY ONE OF THOSE TEMPTATIONS TO GET HEAD?!?
Yeah like a third of this video's info was taken from recent DYKG videos
I agree!!! Ashes journey should have ended would have been a beautiful yet sad end that we Needed! Someone else should continue the battles.
I agree, but I can also see it not being as simple to properly manage it. Not because of Ash, but because of Pikachu. To replace Ash would mean either they need a new Pokemon as iconic and lovable as Pikachu, or need to work hard to give the new protagonist a Pikachu without making them feel like its just Ash again.
Again, I'm not saying they can't manage, nor that they shouldn't ever try, just that replacing Ash isn't as simple as it sounds. I don't even know what they could do to replace Pikachu. If they went with something else that refused to go into its Pokeball and always followed the new protagonist and rode on his shoulder, that would feel too similar to Ash, even if the Pokemon was nothing like Pikachu in design. So they would need something cute enough and cool enough and need to have a reason its often out of its Pokeball without feeling like Pikachu again. They can manage, his Greninja worked well enough as it is and could easily have been modified to fit better, but it wouldn't be easy. And every new protagonist would bring a similar issue, unless they or their partner Pokemon failed their role.
Okay okay man I am not gonna watch this, WAIT A MIN
Im so glad that it whasnt clickbait! I really loved the video man, keep going!
I knew all about Beautifly... Doesn't stop me from using it.
That Shudo story really bummed me out. He was right though. After Johto we should have moved onto a new character. May would be a possibility, but I think they would want a boy. Maybe Brendan. And basically every male protagonist from each generation.
Let’s be honest though. We’re not stuck with Ash because they prefer the character it’s 100% only because of Pikachu.
Side note, I was hoping the officer Jenny and nurse Joy fact was going to explain why they’re identical and named exactly the same. I think they’re clones. They found the best Pokémon nurse and police officer and they’re manufactured for each location. That’s why there’s 1 old nurse Joy (that I can remember) in the anime, she was either the original donor or was an early clone. I mean that has to be the only explanation.
I don't think 19 is too young to have a child. Most of the ppl ends school at the age of 18 and woman at the time when the anime came out were mostly home.
it's not ideal. You're just coming into your adulthood at that point and still sorting yourself out. Better to wait a few years if you can, at least, I think so anyway.
@@rosevee4600 And let your kid get bullyed for having an old mom or dad? In my country it's happening. The ideal age to get a child is from 18-24 here😅 Also when you're a teenager you have to start being an adult and get used to it.
@@prohungary8614 most parents in the USA ARE old by the time their kids get into their 20s lol. My parents are in their 50s-60s
Beautifly is not a cut butterfly pal, he’s a cute CARNIVOROUS butterfly pal
DO NOT CALL BEAUTIFLY A HE!
Beautifly: drains liquids
Gorebyss: does it too
