    Beldum originally looks like a dumbbell.
    Dumbbells are typically used for arm exercises.
    Beldum now resembles one of Metagross's arms.
    Beldum is an arm.

    i get the feeling aarei was just made happier and turned into primarina 4 gens later due to blue seal dog, and then keromeelo and otoma were repurposed for the seismatoad line when gen five came around because of musical/vibration based tadpole to frog line. could just be me but that was my impression while looking at them in this video

    I don't think Charmander should count as "Real animal with Element slapped on" cause it's inspired off of the Fire Salamander, which were believed to be "Born from Fire"

    • @MusicComet
      @MusicComet 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Yeah, but do you see any animal breathe fire in the real world? No? That's why the element is slapped on even if it's inspired. Just like how the water bunnies in this video can be associated with water, but understandably don't spit water.

    • @Bysthedragon
      @Bysthedragon 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    • @MusicComet
      @MusicComet 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @Bysthedragon Okay, but just because it's associated with it, doesn't mean the element isn't slapped on. It just has a good reason as to why it does. Salamanders still don't breathe or are born from fire, that's a myth and there's plenty of pokemon based on myths which explains their typing.

    • @Bysthedragon
      @Bysthedragon 3 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      @@MusicComet I feel like you are not understanding something. Yes a Salamander is a real animal that can not breath fire, but Charmander is not the real animal, It is a fictional creature that embodies both the animal and the myth about the animal. It also has the context of being the first stage of Charizard, and Dragons are also well known for being associated with Fire
      If it was a Fire...Kangaroo or something random then maybe that would be an animal with an element slapped on unless there's a connection between Kangaroos and Fire I am not aware of

    i think you misinterpreted clampearl and huntail, it seems to me like the throughline for the evolution is that they both use lures- i think the original clampearl *is* the clam, and the pearl with the "face" is the lure. the clam uses its tongue (with a fake face) to lure prey into its own mouth, and evolves into a pokemon that does the same with its tail. when gorebyss was added they changed clampearl because it didn't tie in with gorebyss at all, but it made the gimmick more confusing : /

Just look at all the sound inspired mons(a frog with a note, teeths on yeti's foot look like soundwave, etc) that could explain some sound inspired mons but they ultimately decided to not any more types. If they actually added sound type in gen 3 could that mean they would've added a new type each gen which tbh would make things complicated and kinda hard to come up with an type that would work lol

    Funny enough, and assuming this is true, beta Breloom had to be changed because it looked to much like a Chocobo.
    Which I can see.
    I do like how in retrospect, Tropius is so peak because it was originally gonna be a three stage evolution line. Maybe they could try that again, but have it be the middle stage.
    Yakkoko is so damn cute, I’m a little saddened that it was cut.
    Hanteeru actually has a second sprite, the tail is modified to look more like Gorebyss in a Catdog style. Makes it interesting that they split them apart

    Flane must have evolved into Ryllidy right?
    They have the same pink and green color. They both read emotions. Also I wonder if that line about being raised by someone with a bright heart was setup for Wally.

    • @bellaeon5646
      @bellaeon5646 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Well, according to the rest of the leaks, Ryllidy did have a pre-evolution... But it was Galbi/Biskyal, the Jynx-ass thing. I don't get the logic behind this either. Flane is unrelated to these two.
      Also according to the leaked early Pokemon list, the concept of giving Wally a Physic-type signature Pokemon has existed since April 2002, when both Ryllidy and Flane were still things, but there was no name attached to these Pokemon so they couldn't be either Flane or Ryllidy. If they ever considered giving either of them to Wally, it seems like they would've been supporting team members instead. And while Ralts' scratchpad does have a scrapped Pokemon in it, it's the Psycho Dog and what seems to be its pre-evolution of all things. Weird stuff!

Neat stylistic decision to avoid that and intentionally alias it anyway!
