My wife correctly guessed flabebe halfway through the fire baby, and demanded I comment and let people know she was right. Somehow, she understands Julia's eldritch horror Pokemon.
Hey I guessed it too! I felt flabebe was pretty obvious 😅 but I totally understand the confusion, I think it's difficult to think "bebe" to refer to babies
I am convinced that NOBODY IN THE WORLD has a mind like Julia's. She's 10 steps ahead of everyone, and then takes 5 steps to the left. Like, everything she does makes sense when she explains it, but it's like, how the f*** did your mind get there and why did it take such an absurd path so seamlessly??? This ep is freaking gold and we definitely need more like it. We need to just let Julia explore and be.
Makes sense to me, and probably anyone who doesn’t know Pokémon. 🤷🏼♀️ They keep trying to guess based on lore or actual shape or whatever and the whole point of this is that she’s just drawing the literal name sounds. Peek… achoo. Fine. They’re like “what’s a two headed slug type?” Flabebe… combing flame or flamingo and baby. Fine. Meanwhile they’re like “what is a baby fire type?” Now they’re on “let’s name all the turtle ones” because she drew a turtle. 🤦🏼♀️
From her later comment, I get the impression that she drew it that way because otherwise everyone would've guessed Pineco from a pinecone and she wanted to get her VISION out.
I'm only commenting because they told me I have to if I got that it was Flabebe before them. But for real, even without video you could tell that Julia perked up when they first said "baby," but the rest of the crew got so stuck on "Flame" that she couldn't guide them away from it.
As soon as Karina said “Flabingo” Julia’s art immediately clicked and I literally spent the next few minutes occasionally yelling “IT’S FLABEBE” at my phone. 10/10 video
I remember when Julia made the ska armory joke and I’m always thinking about it. Every time I see a skarmory while playing Pokémon I exclusively call it ska armory. The moment Julia said she was setting the scene I knew immediately that’s what it had to be. I was overfilled with joy the whole time it was being drawn. I’m so glad ska armory has finally gotten the drawing it deserves.
@@CrazyOrangeChannel An armory is where weapons are kept. Ska is a type of music. So she drew an armory that also had things associated with ska music.
The real problem here is that they're all guessing based on things Julia would not know if she just read the names. Drawing a fire doesn't mean it's a fire-type, she doesn't know what that is!
I did actually get Pickachu pretty fast. But I don’t know Pokémon so I was just taking the standard Pictionary route rather than trying to associate what they actually look like or what their abilities are or whatever… if I had more names for reference I’d probably do a lot better than people who do know Pokémon, just because I wouldn’t have pre-established visuals getting in the way. 🤷🏼♀️
oh but that's the best part: The only reason it was called flabébé in the first place was because they were leaning on the French theme for Kalos. so in a way, it worked perfectly
I will admit, when Julia put the beret and everyone started saying “how did making it French help” I immediately said “Flambe Bebe…. Flabebe” and now I worry that I’m slowly starting to mind meld with Julia. EDIT: I got skarmory as soon as the trumpet showed up. We share a mind now.
I got it from the flamingo part. Coincidentally, just after they said they'd rage if it wasn't fire type. So, I said "no!" out loud, scandalized, before bursting out laughing...
I love how they kept slipping I and out of getting them super fast and then having no earthly idea what Julia was trying to do; like they were sneaking into her mind palace to momentarily catch glimpses of the truth only to immediately get chased out again by the horrors living in the non-euclidean hallways lmao.
You gotta appreciate Julia taking the prompt and not going wild with it. She took the names literally, which was the literal prompt. Shout out to her glorious literal interpretations that made me go “oooooooooooooooooh!!!” every time xD
Julia should do this with everyone's nerd speciality. This one Nathan was the MVP, next one should have Julia draw some literal Yu-Gi-Oh monsters or some Digimon. And the one after should have some literal Bloodborne bosses.
I think Digimon would be more fun than Yu-Gi-Oh just because Yu-Gi-Oh tends to be more literal with their names, but either would be great and I really hope to see more of this type of content!
Julia is on a whole other level both with how she makes art AND how her mind breaks down words… like with the infamous Spheal, what the average person sees as a mashup of “sphere” and “seal”, Julia ended up at “skeezy feel-up”! And now Elekid (electric kid) turns into el-E-kid… astounding!
@@Norien711 feel this beans should be an exception. I’m sure a lot of people needed to see what these Pokémons look like to emphasize how frustrating Julia’s drawings are compared to the actual Pokémon(Flabebe)
They even said "Flame Baby" very early on, back when there was just one drawing, and so it boggled my mind that it took so long to finally reach Flabebe.
The more that went in, I started to parse that Julia’s drawings are always based on how her mind breaks down the names and I was screeching “FLA BE BE!” at the screen the whole time.
I still wonder how the French Speaker didn't parse out that Flabebe is literally Flaur and Bebe smashed together and drew a baby on fire instead of a baby made of/covered in flower petals.
@@declanmckenna6854 The French word for flower is "fleur", not flaur. In fact, the French word for flame is "flamme" And because she's never seen the Pokémon before, a flame baby would be my closest guess as well based on the name alone.

Jacob's realization that they're all french followed by Karina's confusion killed me, I was in tears. I hope those happy flaming bébés are forever doing great

@@HeavensOfMetal I too was thinking litwick, though I also thought julia could be doing ducklett after the third, baby duck, plus "le" and "lit" combined
I want everyone to know that I guessed Flabebe less than three minutes into Julia’s drawing and it was the proudest I’ve been of myself in a long time.
Yeah I was so confused why they didn't guess all the most obvious knight-associated ones immediately like Sirfetch'd and Corviknight, just to get them out there. Granted it wouldn't have mattered, but still
I actually got Flabébé, I thought what Julia drew for that was really smart. The combination of the first 2 images made me think of Flambé and Baby, and the flamingo confirmed the 'Fla' sound
Obviously we need more of this! But would love to see Julia just drawing what she thinks the Pokemon looks like based on the name, rather than the full pictionary style.
@@civilizedmonkey1795 I mean yeah, but they know beforehand what it is. Can you imagine them staring at her Wigglytuff, or better yet her Monferno or Sealeo, and actually try to parse what has happened?
Another good variation, like telephone: show her a Pokémon, she has to give it a name (bc she won’t guess it). And then someone else has to draw the Pokémon based on that name. Then they have to guess the original pokemon
Am i crazy for wanting an even more insane version of this video where Julia just draws pokemon based on wherever her mind and associations take her (so it's not based on or tied to their literal names, unless Julia decides to go in that direction)? It would make the challenge 100 times harder but hopefully also funnier.
Them guessing based on appearance, thinking Julia knows ANYTHING about what these pokemon look like, and not guessing by mashing the words of the drawings together is driving me insane omg. That said, I only knew it was flabebe when she put the little hat on it lmao
As soon as Julia started Drawing, I completely blanked on Pokémon names. It was as if I was forced into the position she’s in during every other Pokémon draw challenge.
3 minutes in. The commentary on this episode is already a disaster because everyone is just calling out nonsense word associations. I love it! Keep up the awesome work, Drawfee!
The only one I legit got before any hints from Julia was Flabebe. It was hilarious how everyone kept saying the words that made up the sounds of its name, but just not connecting them. I would definitely have a Julia version of Flabebe on my team, though! So cute! (and I see them as a 3-step evolution haha!)
I don't know pokemon, but I feel like julia nailed this. If the other hosts had remembered it was names taken literally i think they would have performed better 😂
I dunno about that? I tried to keep in mind only the names, and although I did slightly better than them, some were /very/ difficult. If you know pokemon even a little bit, it's hard to remove the way the names are supposed to be pronounced (like Elekid and Skarmory) to how Julia interpreted it so she could make an image representation. Even if drawfee did this again, we'd probably get similar results I think! With there being over a 1000 pokemon, remembering pokemon's names (and images) is hard enough as is without thinking of breaking down every name into pieces or mispronouncing it to conjure another word.... Like Skarmory was impossible for me, I never would have connected it that way (plus Ska's hype was before my time so I had no idea what those objects meant together- I thought it was a hipster or neckbeard stereotype reference at first). I was convinced the whole time that it was Corvinite and kept waiting for the corvid clue (it looked like a hoard of shiny things and no details Julia added on changed that idea. I even thought the speech bubble was like a raven repeating words a la Nevermore)!
@@Dancingpinata- Skarmory is a reference to a previous Drawfee Pokemon episode, where Julia would not shut the fuck up about ska, and it was wonderful.
I got SO MAD when I realized what Julia was doing for the last one, and I had to hold on to that rage for an additional 5 minutes while the others caught up to her redoing one of her jokes.
I can't wait for the opposite of this, watching Julia try to guess what Pokemon's names are based on what everyone else draws. But Jacob, Nathan, and Karina can look at as much reference as they want, and Julia still won't get close.
When Julia said the knight was to “set the scene,” I thought “He’s reacting to something, a dragon maybe… dragon… knight DRAGONITE!” Edit: Of course that isn’t it, that would be way too simple.
I saw the word "Pokemon" and Julia's avatar on the card pop up, and I broke out into what I can only describe as a "cold sweat of glee"
I relate so hard but I just read the title and just clicked so fast XD
This description is so good, that's exactly what I felt before clicking lol
I audibly gasped when the discord notification told me about this episode
You're completely right that is the feeling
Same here
The added layer of challenge beyond Julia not knowing Pokemon is that Julia's word association skills are like no one else's in the world.
She would draw Togedemaru as fanart of 2014 action/sci-fi movie Edge of Tomorrow.

“You flambé a baby, the flamingo is a baby, the baby is a flame and French” -Karina
I love how everyone continues to guess based on if the drawing is similar to how a Pokemon actually looks as if Julia has any idea
I want everyone to know that I guessed Flabebe less than three minutes into Julia’s drawing and it was the proudest I’ve been of myself in a long time.
same
Julia may be the artist this episode but Nathan's the one sweating under all the pressure
I was so mad about elekid until she wrote it out. She was absolutely correct.
El-E-Kid is the most galaxy brained shit Julia has ever pulled, and I love her for it. Lmao
For the Skarmory one, I was so convinced it was Sirfetch’d. He is a Sir (knight) who is Fetching something (from the store).
Yeah I was so confused why they didn't guess all the most obvious knight-associated ones immediately like Sirfetch'd and Corviknight, just to get them out there.
Granted it wouldn't have mattered, but still
I thought it was either sirfetch'd or pignite (pick knight)
At first I thought "um, uh" knight - Omanyte! I also thought El E-Kid was likin' rock.
Oh yes. This one's for the fans. Julia drawing Pokémon means nothing to a general user, but drawfee viewers already know this is a banger video.
Drawfee is giving us a gift, and I am very grateful ^_^
Delibird would have been a good one for this. Can totally see her drawing a bird that is working at a deli counter
I actually got Flabébé, I thought what Julia drew for that was really smart. The combination of the first 2 images made me think of Flambé and Baby, and the flamingo confirmed the 'Fla' sound
I know almost nothing about Pokemon, and even I said Flambeby the minute I saw the first picture
Obviously we need more of this! But would love to see Julia just drawing what she thinks the Pokemon looks like based on the name, rather than the full pictionary style.
lmao isn't that what she does every Pokémon episode?
@@civilizedmonkey1795 I mean yeah, but they know beforehand what it is. Can you imagine them staring at her Wigglytuff, or better yet her Monferno or Sealeo, and actually try to parse what has happened?
Another good variation, like telephone: show her a Pokémon, she has to give it a name (bc she won’t guess it). And then someone else has to draw the Pokémon based on that name. Then they have to guess the original pokemon
@@Shelinatorable This would be dope
@@Shelinatorable this needs more upvotes
Am i crazy for wanting an even more insane version of this video where Julia just draws pokemon based on wherever her mind and associations take her (so it's not based on or tied to their literal names, unless Julia decides to go in that direction)? It would make the challenge 100 times harder but hopefully also funnier.
Yeah...because we all know what Spheal looks like now....
Shoutout to the editors putting all the pokemon images on screen as they're said
Them guessing based on appearance, thinking Julia knows ANYTHING about what these pokemon look like, and not guessing by mashing the words of the drawings together is driving me insane omg. That said, I only knew it was flabebe when she put the little hat on it lmao
"Elekid"
"YOU DIDNT THINK TO ADD LIKE SOME ELECTRICITY?"
ITS NOT A GIVEN BASED ON THE NAME 😭
I got it the first time the exact phrase "flame baby" was said. They almost said it fast enought to sound like flabebe
As soon as Julia started Drawing, I completely blanked on Pokémon names. It was as if I was forced into the position she’s in during every other Pokémon draw challenge.
"i should draw them like a pokemon..." then immediately just drawing a dude in a suit killed me lol. i love seeing Julia draw pokemon
The _second_ they said, "watch. this isn't gonna even be a fire type" , every synapse in my brain screamed Flabebe.
Karina seeing a knight: Eevee?
Julia: No
Karina: I tried me best.
Comedy gold this whole episode. Please do more of these.
Jacob drily saying "a worm body, okay" is such a watching-Julia-draw mood
3 minutes in. The commentary on this episode is already a disaster because everyone is just calling out nonsense word associations.
I love it! Keep up the awesome work, Drawfee!
I just started watching the episode a second time cuz I just love it so much! And knowing the names already also gives an interesting kind of fun XD
I love how the first drawing really just sets the tone for the whole rest of the ep. ”WHY ARE THEY CONNECTED?!?!”
The only one I legit got before any hints from Julia was Flabebe. It was hilarious how everyone kept saying the words that made up the sounds of its name, but just not connecting them. I would definitely have a Julia version of Flabebe on my team, though! So cute! (and I see them as a 3-step evolution haha!)
Clearly that pokemon Digivolves
Fun fact for Nathan! The beta names for Abra and Kadabra were Hocus and Pocus!
Came to mention that)
"Based on their names" and they immediately guess based on what it looks like. 😂😂
I really thought Julia’s “El-e-kid” was supposed to be Glameow :’))
I was sure it was gonna be Persian cause it sounds like person
I thought it was purugly 😭
SAME
I was thinking Delphox personally.
I thought shinx because jinx and youtuber and shining stars with the cat ears
Julia humming the Animal Crossing theme while creating horrors is such a mood
(20:05)
Julia really through them for a loop right out of the gate by following the brief perfectly to the letter.
Everything between Julia drawing berets and them getting what she had drawn three times was EXCELLENT content. Truly a God Tier Drawfee moment
12:12 Julia really just out here drawing Catboy Jerma.
I'm proud that I was able to get in Julia's headspace after El E-kid and I got flabebe almost immediately.
When she turned the flame babies french, I was like, "flabaybay?? That sounds almost real" and turns out yes, yes it is
I don't know pokemon, but I feel like julia nailed this. If the other hosts had remembered it was names taken literally i think they would have performed better 😂
I dunno about that? I tried to keep in mind only the names, and although I did slightly better than them, some were /very/ difficult. If you know pokemon even a little bit, it's hard to remove the way the names are supposed to be pronounced (like Elekid and Skarmory) to how Julia interpreted it so she could make an image representation.
Even if drawfee did this again, we'd probably get similar results I think! With there being over a 1000 pokemon, remembering pokemon's names (and images) is hard enough as is without thinking of breaking down every name into pieces or mispronouncing it to conjure another word....
Like Skarmory was impossible for me, I never would have connected it that way (plus Ska's hype was before my time so I had no idea what those objects meant together- I thought it was a hipster or neckbeard stereotype reference at first).
I was convinced the whole time that it was Corvinite and kept waiting for the corvid clue (it looked like a hoard of shiny things and no details Julia added on changed that idea. I even thought the speech bubble was like a raven repeating words a la Nevermore)!
There are 1000 Pokémon. It’s not easy to remember every name lmao, especially when so many Pokémon are so obscure
Plus I think some of it was more that a pokemon that is a sword probably has a name that could be related to an armory
@@Dancingpinata- Skarmory is a reference to a previous Drawfee Pokemon episode, where Julia would not shut the fuck up about ska, and it was wonderful.
Consider: combine this with the 30 second challenge and slap a time limit on Julia's drawing
I got SO MAD when I realized what Julia was doing for the last one, and I had to hold on to that rage for an additional 5 minutes while the others caught up to her redoing one of her jokes.
Jacob was so furious at the reveal. It was perfect.
I love how Jacob goes from Digimon name "news-mon" all the way to drag name "Rita Paper" in 3 seconds flat
Omg that’s a great drag name lmaooo
I love how they know they know the challenge is the pokemon names not how they look, but they keep naming pokemon that look like the drawing 😂
was gonna comment the same thing lol. julias art is just that powerful
it makes so much sense once the name is revealed. Julia really is out here making me use the very few braincells i have.
Julia drawing Pokémon but wrong always brings me such a profound joy. It’s a gift every time.
I can't wait for the opposite of this, watching Julia try to guess what Pokemon's names are based on what everyone else draws. But Jacob, Nathan, and Karina can look at as much reference as they want, and Julia still won't get close.
Omg yes
Oooh yes
Have they not done that?
@@StonedtotheBones13 I mean, every Pokemon episode is technically "Julia Tries to Guess the Pokemon", but there's never been an official episode
@@DrPotatoSkins I don't think that's allowed. Julia must not learn Pokemon, for this... This is magnifique
This is some *vintage* Drawfee. If this popped up as a 2016 episode where they had Karina sub in for Caldwell, I wouldn't suspect a thing.
When Julia said the knight was to “set the scene,” I thought “He’s reacting to something, a dragon maybe… dragon… knight DRAGONITE!”
Edit: Of course that isn’t it, that would be way too simple.
