    The fact that Mirage Island is full of Wynaut is a hilarious answer to the question the player will inevitably ask once they realize nothing special is there: "Why have this incredibly difficult to find island in the game if there's nothing special there in the first place?!?"

      Except for the fact Giovanni never sends the trio after Ash and is seen actively disappointed by their choice of pursuing a kid without any special Pokémon to steal. It's all Jessie, James and Meowth being convinced his Pikachu is the strongest ever for realz because... it beat them, I guess? Like, no other Pokémon's ever done that before, they've gotta have it.
      Yeah, even as a kid, I actually disliked anime Team Rocket. I played the games - they're supposed to be dangerous criminals to be taken down with the power of Pokéfriendship! You know, the element that makes the show have STAKES? Instead, they're dumbasses with a talking Meowth (AKA a walking gajillion dollars) whose potentially cool backstories are constantly teased and never actually turned into anything relevant. They're great in Sun&Moon, where they (along with most characters at various times) are allowed to actually be comedic gold instead of annoying distractions, but of course any other season is a Sunkern to Sun&Moon's Mewtwo anyway.

    A note on the pokemon war:
    There are very few middle aged men in kanto in the original games. There are old men, and boys, The young men are seen as part of team rocket and any men Surge's age are all in biker gangs which roam from celedon to fuschia (possibly a lot of them are veterans). Lance seems quite young to be the strongest trainer in all of kanto, and why is Prof. Oak in charge of the pokemon league? (the dude's like 75)
    Additionally, the architecture and culture in Kanto is that of the postwar economic boom the united states had in the 1950s. The mainland of kanto is dominated by the saffron metropolitan area and its suburbs. Much like Earthbound, this game was influenced by post WW2 westernization and chose to make that its setting.
    Thirdly, why was mewtwo being created? what was the purpose of expending exorbitant amounts of funding and time into crafting a genetically modified mentally unstable killing machine? To end the war. The last group of men you meet in gen 1 is the scientists which work at silph co. or worked at the pokemon mansion.
    Just some interesting details.

    I want Clefairy to become a big mascot of Pokémon to be honest. It's so cute!

    Really liked this! You made this engaging all the way through, and budgeted your time per section well. The outro was a good word as well. I'd love to see more "culture" ideas like this one!

    28:20 the Gengar/Clefable thing is absolutely intentional. Gengar is short for doppelgänger. Even the Japanese name is the same.

    28:34 fun fact but there was an interview that confirmed all of the Kanto starters had their final evolutions designed first and then the pre-evolutions were designed later

    The theory about the ho-oh feather is the first time I’ve heard it and it makes them most sense.

    Watching this in 2024 after the Pokémon Legends ZA announcement is somehow kinda satisfying…😌

    1:51 what's actually very interesting is that when japanese news stations reported on the episode the next day, they had no clue why it happened and showed the clip completely unaltered, which in-turn affected even more people than just the children who watched the episode when it aired. The whole thing was an event of mass hysteria, and even people who had no prior history of any photosensitivity were affected. Mental health and such isn't as widely known or talked about in Japan, and considering this was in the 90's, people were confused as to what caused it.

    I remember hearing a “rumor” about being able to travel to the Orange Islands if you go south past Pallet Town and Cinnabar island in Red and Blue, granted this was when the games came out and us little kids coming up with random theories, but still worth a topic to discuss in a future video!
    This earned a subscribe from me👍🏽

    I can confirm that pokemon z was supposed to come out, they even announced it but a lot of people online were bashing the company after the announcement and they ended up not doing it.
