Who is your favorite starter Pokemon? Fuecoco and Snivy are mine :)
same serpior gives royal look and I just love sceptile
Greninja is my favorite
Torchic, popplio and sprigatito are mine but there's no starter that I dislike. I think all of them deserve equal treatment from game freak because all of them are someone's first pokemon.
CHIMCHAR AND SPRIGATITO ARE MY FAVORITES.
Treecko and todadile and charmander.
Apparently Mari Shimazaki, the lead character designer for Bayonetta (and the person who designed Bayonetta herself) was the one who designed Meowscarada and Quaquaval. Looking at them, it makes much more sense now.
It really does lmao
So that’s why the starters look so..sexual
@@mariomouse8265 🧐 ayo?
@@mariomouse8265what😧
Everything makes sense now
In regards to Chespin, it was the first mammalian grass starter. Bulbasuar was an amphibian, Chikorita was a fruit/dino, and Treeko, Turtwig, and Snivy are all reptiles.
And it has the highest defense stat out of all starters by a lot
'dino's aren't reptilian by technicalaty
@@iamboard2815 They're technically birds, but you're right. Still doesn't negate that chespin is the first grass type mammal starter
@@Sknotty I know but not my point
@@iamboard2815 actually, they are part of the Clade reptilia. So birds are reptiles.
Fun fact about Emboar is that until Volcanion, it was the only fire type Pokémon that could learn a water type move that dealt damage, (not rain dance, withdrawl, etc.) by being able to learn Scald via TM
Plus Emboar is the only starter to learn moves of all starter types (not counting Hidden Power or Tera Blast). With its STABs, Grass Knot and Scald. Wild Charge/Thunder Punch can be added since Pikachu was a starter as well.
Does it really matter though. Kinda random tbh
GALLONS OF HOT PIG PISSSSSSSS
@@pokefan9194 All the facts in this video are 'random.' They're just interesting tidbits. Are you like 12 ?
Couldn't it learn solar beam too?
Fun Fact: Cinderace is now (Currently, Sorry Greninja but your moves are used by different Pokemon's) the only starter to have 2 signature moves: *Pyro Ball & Court Change*
I will also point out that with Inteleon despite having "chameleon" in it's name, a lot of Inteleons animal design comes from the basilisk, lizards famous for being able to run across water and similarly have thin bodies and limbs but with large feet and a long tail.
So for those who didn't quite get why Inteleon is as thin as he is, that's why, plus a lizard evolving into a different species of lizard makes sense (a chameleon turning into a basilisk)
Honestly I would have preferred Squirtle’s final form to be a mature looking Wartortle as it was intended. It seems more interesting than just a turtle with cannons.
Blastoise could have been its own Pokémon like before but I think it’s a reasonable final form as it resembles both. And can see why many love Blastoise.
Gamefreak planned 300 Pokémon for the Kanto dex but even with the improved cartridges that Nintendo provided they can only keep 150 so it’s only natural if you have 2 water tortoise lines that you combine them together
They could've had a wise and quiet turtle, a brash and loud dragon, and a mystical and mysterious jungle frog. Now all we have are the two loud obnoxious pokemon stomping up a storm and venusaur is there in the corner trying to sleep
another fact about Piplup is that from the DP to XY anime, Piplup had black eyes, but in journeys Piplup had blue eyes to represent the Ken Sugimori artwork more
I got a Chespin line fact:
According to Quiladin’s Y/Alpha Saphire dex entry: “They are very kind and won't start fights.” Which makes it one of the only starters that is canonically wholesome and pure.
Also, Chesnaught’s shiny kind of looks like a tank.
Speaking of facts, it actually walls gengar lmao
Chespin was the first grass type starter based on something other than a reptile or amphibian.
And highest defense out of any starter by a lot
I know that the Pokédex explicitly says that Qwaxly came from another region, but I feel like that must be true for a lot of them, since they can’t be caught in the wild in their native regions. Only given to you at the beginning of the game
Also at the beginning of red and blue Oak says that the starters are his last 3 pokemon he caught while on his travels. They aren't native to Kanto.
@@doomthesenpai Who said he didn't travel in Kanto? It was just a way to make each game unique since there was not different legendary pokemons for Red, Blue and green.
One awesome little detail that I love about Meowscarada is the potential reasoning why it probably has Protean as a hidden ability. You see, Meowscarada is indeed a stage magician but it also has a bit of a Jester theme. The Jester is usually a figure that represents the Fool arcana in the 78 Tarot Card deck. "The Fool" represents "new beginnings" but is also is described as an individual who doesn't know what to expect, fairly inexperienced, having beginners luck, and has very good improvisation. Basically, Meowscarada is the Joker card of pokémon, which I find super fun and creative (most persona fans probably see the correlation). But Meowscarada may not just be the fool arcana, but "The Magician" arcana as well, seeing as it is its title. The Magician Arcana is also a Tarot card that states "The message is to tap into one's full potential rather than holding back, especially when there is a need to transform something." I feel of the 3 protean starters, Meowscarada has the most creative take to justify an ability for a starter that I've ever seen.
Also the mask aspect of the design can also be an homage to the Italian stock comedy Commedia dell'arte Arlecchino know for his tricky and acrobatics to name an few
I always jokingly say that normal Meowscarada don’t have ‘magic powers’ and perform their attacks using practical means. Protean Meowscarada however actually has the magic powers.
Which, ah. You know what’s odd? You can teach Meowscarada Aura Sphere. And a bunch of other strange somewhat exclusive TMs.
Wait
I thought its hidden ability is magician
@@doktorsmiles2034 That's Delphox.
[puts on a tinfoil hat] it's green! which means the next Persona mainline game will be green!
((in all seriousness though i really love the persona series and my favourite character in it is of the Magician arcana [Yosuke from p4] and this made me incredibly happy))
Another interesting fact about Grookey is that Goh’s took the longest out of any pokemon owned by a main character between capture and first move at a whopping 39 episodes (JN059-098). In comparison, Misty’s Togepi used her first move 35 episodes after she hatched (Between EP050 and 086, not counting “Holiday Hy-Jynx”, “Snow Way Out,” and “Princess vs. Princess”, all episodes scheduled to air before Togepi hatched but aired afterwards because of Porygon)
I'm pretty sure Delphox being a fire type is actually a reference to the classic RPG wizard's favorite spells being fireball and firebolt.
Also, it's low starting, but high ending stats may be a reference to early D&D. Apparently back in the day wizards started very weak, but became powerhouses that outclassed everyone else if they managed to survive into high level play.
I just love how the Venusaur line is based off of frogs, because I just love them! And it appears to be based on a Pixie Frog, which has a really interesting personality (e.i., they will try to eat anything that moves!)
I also love how Venusaur is a complex design, but not to the point of being cluttered like many current designs.
Some more facts about the Popplio line I wanted to share is that the different things they're inspired by. They have a theme of entertainment, obviously looking at the clown like features, but also, Popplio is an acrobat, because of how it's portrayed doing flips and bouncing off of bubbles, Brionne is a dancing pop star, and Primarina is an opera singer. Primarina is also inspired by a combination of mermaids/sirens, and selkies, all of which happen to be known for singing.
Wooper is not an axolotl but a baby salamander, as we can tell from their “cheek feelers” aka gills going away when it evolves into quagsire. Axolotls themselves are a kind of salamander that experiences neoteny which is a condition that causes adults to grow but only partially mature, this can actually happen to most animals and even humans.
This was even confirmed to be true when scientists managed to trigger an adult axlotl to finish it's development cycle and turn into a full-fledged salamander by feeding it thyroxine, a thyroid hormone produced by humans that's also a hormone that triggers "puberty" in salamanders.
Hoping for a bug-themed Starter one day! A Grass/Ground termite would be sick!
Fire/bug fire ant?
@@skullkidtiger4851 water bug shrimp
DID SOMEONE ASK FOR ANOTHER FIRE/FIGHTING TYPE? WELL HERE YOU GO
@@BBWahoo The last time we got a fire-fighting was 2010/2011...I think that meme is dead....very dead
@@asdrenasdren4363 That meme isn't just dead. It's literal dust. Dude had to make Lara Croft and Indiana Jones green with envy to excavate that historical artifact.
Bonus fact: Empoleon copies Napoleon’s “drip” because it’s a water type… I’ll see myself out.
Chespin is the first grass type starter not to be a member of Ash’s team. Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, Turtwig and Snivy were caught by Ash, but Chespin joined Clemont instead and was used for being gluttonous as well as bad comic relief.
Swampert and Marshstomp is the only starter Pokémon to have one weakness.
The fact that Qwaxly came from another region is more likely a reference to invasive species or migratory birds.
I will always be upset that beta Blastoise was replaced…fits so much better!
Empoleon and Torterra both have unique typings and are the first of these type combos Water/Steel and Grass/Ground.
Both are my favorite starters but love Empoleon more! Chesnaught is also my favorite besides Greninja. Infernape is also good! Ferallgatr is the best starter in Johto it carried my team in Soulsilver.
Torterra’s unique typing isn’t anymore due to Toedscool and Toedscruel.
I know that I was saying it was unique for the time before ToadScruel existed.
I wouldn't say wooper is an axolotl. It's likely just a juvenile Chinese giant salamander. All baby salamanders have the head gills that axolotls have, but axolotls are the only ones that keep them into adulthood. Since wooper loses them upon evolution it's probably not an axolotl.
Wooper Looper
Oshawott will always be my favorite starter, but I will also more love the Esperanto name for Bulbasaur- being Bulbizarre. It avoids the Saur problem while having a pun.
There are official Esperanto names for Pokemon?! Where did you find them?
Oshawott is also my favs starter, and always will be. I have a story with it that just made me love it forever 🦦❤️
“Greninja is the only starter to have two signature moves” cinderace: am I a joke to you
2:30 I always thought that Charizard wasn't dubbed over since his cry sounded like a generic roar
I love 2nd stage evolutions and its sad they get on the middle without ever seeing them again. Like Croconaw and Wartortle are very awesome.
Always love starting my Friday shift at work with new JPR video. Keep up the good work
Here's a fact for my favourite gen 6 starter: Chespin was the first mammalian grass starter
They *all* lay eggs lol
@@enoyna1001 as do Platypuses and Echidnas, but they are still mammals (I know Chespin isn't a platypus nor an echidna, I'm just making an example).
Still, first mammalian-like grass starter
And highest defense out of any starter by a lot
One fact: Meowscarada is the fastest starter ever.
Yep. Before it was Typhlosion/Charizard with 100, then Sceptile at 120, Greninja at 122 and then Meowscarada at 123.
The original final evolution of Squirtle is much better 😭
Chestnaught has the highest def star out of all starters by a lot 🤔
9:08 isn't cinderace also have two "signature" moves counting court change?
It does he might have missed it because of how late you get it.
I remember reading somewhere that Serperior's design is also based off Lady Oscar from The Rose of Versailles
If there won't be a jojo friday i know jpr got me for JPR Fridays
cinderace also has two signature moves, pyro ball and court change
Anyone else want a water starter who does fortune telling so it rounds out the trio of Delphox (attack magic) meowscarda (illusion magic) so I think fortune telling would be the best way to round it out
@@matchapaws8193 how I Invision it first stage reads palms second stage does tarot readings and the last stage does crystal ball readings and is probably water ghost type
Cinderace the GOAT
There is no better way to end Friday night than with a JPR upload.
Everybody thinks Wooper is an axolotl, but it is just a juvenile salamander, which, do look like axolotls, as they never leave their juvenile stage, but that's why Wooper evolves into a more traditional salamander, while marshtomp and swampert maintain their spiky gills.
I'm pretty sure Chespin's evolution gimmick got messed up in the official art book. The gimmick is if you flip on a certain part of the book you will the all the 2nd forms. But if you try to see chespin's second form, it will show chesnaught. Also chespin is my favorite starter pokemon for x and y were my first pokemon game even though my name and pfp in turtle twig.
Bro what are u talking about lol
@@Andrew-ww1hz lol never mind
Fact about all of the starters: They're all someone's first pokemon which is why game freak should treat them all with equal respect and put them in every game.
(Yes. I know this is an opinion but can you blame me for thinking this way?)
Seems like GF realised that, according to leaks all starters (well beside 2 lines) are coming back to SV with DLC
As a Chespin, I have a fact about myself.
I'm the first mammal grass starter!
Those aren't cheek feelers on the axolotl, they're external gills. Most salamander larvae look pretty similar to axolotls as axolotls are a species of neotenic tiger salamander, neoteny meaning retention of juvenile features into adulthood.
Here's a Chespin fact: It's the only Pokemon with a BST of 313. It also, ironically, probably has the best matchup against the bug-specialist Gym Leader Viola, due to early access to Rollout.
Chespin love yes!
And highest defense out of any starter by a lot
It's also based on a knight/juggernaut/extinct animal 💐💖
Torterra is also the only Sinnoh starter to make his live-action debut.
i love that you used chuggaaconroy footage. that crazy man has been on my sub list since for nearly 15 years
I like that he mentioned Tepig and snivy's fan name but not Oshwott's probably because it was the least flattering because all the screenshots and sprites at the time were pretty underwhelming and didn't capture his actual personality just making him look dumb and to some kinda ugly and as a result it was known as DerpDerp.
You may have the greatest intro on TH-cam! (Or at least for a PokéTuber) Great video!
love these type of videos
Fun fact about Fennekin: the first rule 34 of it was posted a mere twelve minutes after it was officially revealed on 4chan's /vp/ board. Unfortunately, I was there to see it
2:15 The original final evolution of the Squirtle line is so much better than Blastoise.
Chespin is based on a chestnut.
i’ve got a fun fact for the Chespin line! they were the cause of a pokémon fan’s descent into madness, some dude in utah ended up in jail the same day he was revealed. (can’t type what he did i don’t wanna get banned)
Paldean starters seem to be based on festivals or events people do in particular to places Spain & Portugal ruled before & Spain & Portugal themselves
Poor Chikorita, I recently started a monotype run of SoulSilver where I only use Grass-types just to be able to give the poor thing a chance.
5:14 There is still an achievement Torterra and its line didn't lose : being the slowest starters ever.
Mudkip is a Mudskipper.
They have the same far set eyes, and are an amphibious fish that skip in mud. They also have the same dorsal fin set up as the Mudkip family
Mudkip is probably a Great Blue Mudskipper. Look at the photos and u will see it too
9:04 Cinderace also had two signature moves, pyroball and court change.
This is my first time actually seeing cinderace's animations, and until this point I'd always thought it was supposed to be a volleyball player, not an association football player.
One reason was the court change move, which I assumed was referencing a volleyball court, and the other is that libero is also a position in volleyball. The libero is a player who is allowed to sub in and out between any point without asking the ref and without counting towards your total substitutions, which made sense for the ability.
TH-cam just sent me the notification for this today. Amazing job, subscription thing
Anyone think Skeledirge's ghost typing may be a reference to ghost peppers?
bro, I cant tell how much I like your channel. thanks, bye
7:28 rowlet in sword and shield:👁️👄👁️
i think the gen 5 starters are actually available in pokemon Omega ruby and Alpha saphire if you defeat the champion a couple of times.
U r my inspiration, Boi, u da best
My starters for each generation are:
- Blastoise
- Typhlosion
- Swampert
- Infernape
- Serperior
- Samurott (Hisuian)
- Chesnaught
- Decidueye
- Inteleon
- Skeledirge
My favouite Chespin fact is it's a grass starter which is moderately rare as it'd only happened 5 times before it
A little known fact about Chespin is that all facts about Chespin are well known
another fun fact about the alolan starter trio is that they were the only starter line to be fully revealed before their game’s release. (not including leaks lol)
Well this ending aged like fine wine. Little did he/we know there was indeed a new Legends game just on the horizon.
Nice to see a little cameo from Harry Kane!
Pokémon and Game Freak are so thorough in their Pokemon lore/designs
11:21 I used to love Nascar growing up. Except for that 24 car
Legends Kyurem would be amazing, witnessing what happened and why complete Kyurem fell apart and it’s powers became Reshiram and Zekrom
Speedrunners for XY choose Chespin because it's faster to ensure Chesnaught can't be your opponent, and any of the starters get dropped for Farfetch'd at the first gym anyways. Spiky shield is too much of a time waster if you're stuck facing Chesnaught late game.
Fun fact: serperior actually has hands. It just keeps them behind it's back at all times
A litten fact you missed: the final evo is just a 1980s anime cat monster and a legit murder of what could have been an amazing final form. KEEP THOSE PAWS ON THE GROUND NINTENDO
4:46 Cheek feelers?? Those are GILL BRANCHES, bro :P
2:07 it had a single prevolution that looks like a small blastoise with a bubble
Who tf thought that bulbusaur is based on dinosqurs and not frogs
😭
Look at that they just announced a new legends game 😂
I miss when starters were made to look cool and strong rather than being made with force regional references... I
A fun fact about Chespin is that he’s my buddy
Wooper is a baby salamander, not a axolotl. The "feelers" are gills which all juvenile salamanders have, axolotls are just one of the few species that never loses them
Pause, Chespin.....Gen 4 - Shaymin and Shaymin Sky Form, Gen 5 - Virizion are all part of an original starter trio. //// Side note Virizion is part of the three musketeers who are french. Chespin and Shaymin are both hedgehogs. Chespin is a Kalos starter, a region based in France. Boom clap there's your interesting tidbit of trivia 💪💜
How did he forgot EEVEE, as it is technically a Starter in Gen 1...
Actually Cinderace also has two signature moves like Greninja in Pyro Ball and Court Change.
Wait you did not just call an axolotl's GILLS "cheek feelers" 🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣
Blastoise's cannons dont comeo ut of left field if you know the Theme behind the Evolved starters, Every fire pokemon evolved starter is based on the chinese zodiac, every evolved Grass starters based on prehistoric animals, and prettymuch every evolved water starter has a weapon of some sorts that it carries (with the exception of some water starters)
and once again Intelion is not based on 007 , 95% of the evolved water starters all carry a weapon :)
Mudkip and Cyndaquil are my favs :)
The Johto starters will always be my favorites.
gosh you make some cool videos. i love facts i love them >:-)
Great video with some cool facts
1:59 Isn't Capsule Monster the name of a Yu-Gi-Oh season
You forgot to mention Oshawott's early fan nickname, DerpDerp.
6:18 I see what you’re doing with those names. I’m not letting you get away with that!
4:49 cheek feelers? Come on bro they're gills.
Frog? That's onion turtle
Quilava makes sense to me. Quils made of lava
