  • Pokémon may seem like a very straight forward game franchise sometimes, but there are still people getting things mixed up about it, even if those things aren’t that hard to understand. Here is my second video on Pokémon misconceptions.

    For anyone who ever wondered about hoothoots legs, when birds are very happy they fluff up and stand on one leg an typically go to sleep. Hoothoot hits all of these, being an owl he sleeps during the day, he and noctowl seem very fluffy and fat, while hoothoot seems to be a happy little sassy owl that evolves into one angry bird. Still waiting on my budgie pokemon. Not chatot the parrot pokemon. A literal budgie. Maybe an electric flying parakeet to go with the lemon lime colors of a budgie.

  • @costadinover
    @costadinover 4 ปีที่แล้ว +47

    There's a way simpler explanation on how gens work: they are defined by the Pokemon and changes to the core rules of the game (adding typings, changing abilities) and not by region. HG and SS could arguably be considered gen 2 if they removed everything (core gameplay wise) that was introduced post gen2 and only improved on the graphics. The same way as the ports of Gen1 and Gen2 to 3DS are considered their respective regions and not Gen 6/7.
    Let's Go seems to be an outlier but not quite, since it has the Fairy type and introduces a completely new Pokemon (Meltan) as well as it includes Alolan variants, which automatically makes it a Gen 7.

    I'd like to point out that the 600 base stat total isn't the only qualifier for a Pseudo-Legendary.
    There are actually 3 of them.
    1) the 600 base stat total
    2) they're part of the Slow level-up system (1 & 1/8th million exp to level 100)
    3) having a 3-stage evolutionary line.
    Bonus fun fact: in Japan, they're called the 600 Club because of their base stats. Makes it sound a bit more exclusive than Pseudo-Legendary.

      Honestly, it's not too far-fetched to believe that. In DPPt when you encounter Rotom in the Old Chateau, its battle uses the legendary encounter theme, and you can only encounter one of it in the game. Plus, I'm pretty sure there were some guidebooks published in Gen 4 that actually classified Rotom as a legendary.

      Is there anything aside from someone writing on some wiki it might be based on Medusa an indication that it actually *is* based on Medusa? Especially in the original japanese, nothing really hints towards it and it just generally seems to be the concept of a mystery being covered in thick, unkempt vines, and Tangrowth is just that as a caveman or something.
      Feel like if Tangela truly was based on Medusa, it would have learned glare (snake glare in japanese) eons ago as a nod, none of the pokédex entries or anime appearances talk about that, anything. Seems like someone just thought "oh, the vines kinda look like Medusa's snake hair" and ran with it.

    3. It has a slow level up rate (1.25 Million xp at level 100)
