Fun fact: the Pokemon Vileplume is called "Ruffresia" in Japanese.
Fun fact, Vileplume is called Raflésia in french... Yeah, we're not very imaginative XD
worth to point out that the similarities come from the fact that vileplume is indeed based on a rafflesia
@@eRic-hr3yl Yeah, that's kinda the title of the video ^^
@@eRic-hr3yl yeah that’s so interesting that it even has the same name in other languages!

Nature: Behold my largest flower....
Humanity: Ohhhh!
Nature:....and also my stinkiest! Haha!
Me: Damn you, Nature!!!!! *Shakes fists in air while screaming*
Nature : Behold, my greatest fruit..
Humanity: Ohhhh!
Nature:....and also my stinkiest! Haha!
--durians, also from South East Asia
Nature: Behold, my largest seed!
Humans: Uh....
Nature: Isn't it beautiful?
Humans: Kinda looks like a woman's pelvic region...
Nature: Perverts! It's just a coconut!
@@UsenameTakenWasTaken the coconut is not a seed, it's a fruit
This flower was also the inspiration for the design of the Demogorgon from Stranger Things!
I totally see it! Thanks for sharing :)
Maybe, the true demigorgon from dnd looks no way like the one in stranger things, not even the playfigure they used in the show to play looks the the real one.
@@ehazeha1621 ok no body asked
@@iCore7Gaming seems like you cared :l
@@ehazeha1621 true, D&D's original Demogorgon looks like a two-headed baboon with tentacles or something similar. Not my favourite design. It would have been cool if the Stranger Things series used a Mindflayer as last boss in the kids' dungeon, thus naming the creature this way instead. It also enhanced the analogy with psionic powers and Eleven.
It's always neat to see real life creatures that are inspirations for Pokémon.
Hello Stan
The history goes all of them are endangered because Nintendo keeps sending them cease and desist letters.
Dude, real life IS an inspiration for pokèmons
Chatot is like a love bird.
@@notashark5189 I know that.
"you're smells like flower today"
"aw- really?"
"yeah, well i mean bunga bangke"
bunga bangke is local name for rafflesia. and that is local-oldschool joke. thank you for listening my ted talk
*clap clap clap*
Im having flashbacks
bangke 🗿
🗿
No, it’s not. Get your facts straight
Vileplume is a Grass/Poison type Pokémon introduced in Generation 1. It is known as the Flower Pokémon.
Love the Pokémon knowledge from Tasha & Danielle 🆒
As a Pokemon fan myself I went crazy over the title
Lmao i love how she just descends into hell at the end as a punishment for her joke
You don't
@@smilinandlaughin ? Loser
@@christopher3790? Simp
Fun fact.
Since the Rafflesia is a parasitic plant, that can be seen in Vileplume's evolution line too.
Oddish has a Mandrake in his head
In Gloom the Rafflesia starts growing and you can see leftover leafs dying from the Mandrake
And then Vileplume has the full Rafflesia, with no trace from the Mandrake
Fun
And Bellosom is if the parasite dies
This looks like a plant that would exist in the Rotten Vale In Monster Hunter World
Monster hunter reference 🤌🏻
It's a transport item in the Flooded Forest now. Sadly, local wildlife is not deterred by the stench.
@@librus8680 darn it, wouldn’t it be cool if you could kick one to scare off all monsters in the zone?
You can find these plants in monster hunter freedom Unite as well
@@jamiehughes5573 oh nice
I think I've seen pictures of this flower before but I didn’t know it was a parasitic plant. It's pretty amazing how it uses its stench to attract flies. Thanks for the video.
Also, maybe you could talk about honey ants next, if you haven’t already.
It doesn't eat the flies, it uses them to spread pollen, same way most common flowers use nectar to attract bees or other insects to spread pollen.
@@johnmorrell3187 Thank you for providing me with the correct information.
Tasha, you're still amazing, a bit more after each video!
I bought all of your albums now and I still can't believe the same person does that high-energy hiphop music and this very accurate and accessible popularization work.
You absolutely ROCK.
Rafflesia Arnoldi & Titan Arum two biggest flower in the world, both are from indonesia
Side note: species names are never capitalised, just the genera, and if you can, the entire genus-species is put in italics. Here, we can do that by using the underscore before and after the words to be italicised. C.f., _Titan arum_.
I've seen - and smelled - two corpse flowers. I hope to (ahem) enjoy the scent of a Rafflesia bloom one day.
Tasha: *Cracks bad dad joke*
Me: **giggle-snort** "no way was that funny, why'd I make that noise? **giggle-snort** "oh no, there it is again"
I lost brains cells reading this
That makes my trip back home much more enjoyable, thank you!
Tasha, nice video, by the way I love your laugh.
Great job, Tasha! 😎👏🏿👏🏿🙋🏿♂️
Not bragging tho, I'm from Borneo Island. Everytime I went back home to my hometown. I can always visit the Rafflesia conservation centre. At my place, we had two conservation area for Rafflesia. Thanks for the video. Hope more people around the world will know (educated) about this flower.
The Malaysian side or the Indonesian Side of Borneo? 👋👋👋 from Kuching.
Not bragging too. I grew up in Bengkulu/Bencoolen, the historicaly Brits tradepost where they recorded the flowers.
Sometimes when i travel out of the city towards Lintas Tengah Sumatra HWY i see people marking spots by the road where they find Rafflessia blossoming. It's not a conservation but it's cliff terrain i think it wont get deforested anytime soon.
The area is called "Kelok Kepahiang".
@IBSSnape the smell is like a rotten dead animal. My advice, if you want to take pictures of it. Better use a DSLR or camera with a zoom lens.
@IBSSnape You still can get close and take pictures with it. Just hold your breath 😆 or wait like one day after the flower full bloom. At that time, the smell was not that bad anymore.
1:19 that prononciation tho..
Perfect👍
Did you know Vileplume's Japanese name is pretty much the name of this plant?
The French name of the Pokémon is also literally just Rafflesia as well
That merely means they are using its scientific name as their common one. Japanese borrows a lot of words this way. Fun fact, chocolate chip cookies, in Nihongono (Japanese) are called, "choko-chippu-cookieo," I shit you not. Coffee is, "cohio," where they kind of use the h sound, because their f version is very h-like. I tried to learn Japanese years ago, because my parents lived there for two years before I was born, and taught me some basic phrases, but having to learn both another language, **and** three new ways of writing, simultaneously, was just too hard for me. Side note: to my ear, the most beautiful spoken languages are: Swedish, when spoken by men, and Japanese, when spoken by women. Cheers!
@@injunsun Wow, that’s really interesting - I never knew that! Thanks so much for sharing! :)
Title: "The real Vileplume"
Me: *Sad Venusaur noises*
This flower really is the main inspiration for the entire Oddish line right down to the spots on the Vileplume. But Bulbasaur does seem to take some inspiration from it as well.
...I can almost smell them through the screen.
These plants still scare me ever since I saw them in Animal Crossing..
I loved these since they were a great way to farm flies
@@user-10021 Farm what?
skbldgd-
Ay, i remember those. Was there even a way to get rid of them? I remember smacking em over and over without result
@@twonumber22 flies? you could catch a generic fly and it got added to your insect collection.
I saw this plant on a book when I was little and have been fascinated by it ever since. So nice to see this video. I actually suggested it in the floralogic comments quite some time ago! I wonder if my comment was read and taken into consideration for making the video!
It may stink a lot, but be happy it isn't sapping your life or shooting deadly lasers under the sun
Yikes then it would truly be a Pokémon
Tasha the amazon, the importance of using commas,
Red spotted flowers
Red, spotted flowers
Or, "red-spotted flowers."
The heat is to make the flower look more animal like, some insects,most insects are attracted to body heat.
Thanks for watching!
first :D
Thank you for not making me look at submissive weirdo's covering their breathing holes in this production!
Make a video on how to know if a plant is eatible or not
Absolutely.
😍
That is one creepy flower from some horror version of Terror Mario Bros
Damn Tasha that Adidas jacket is 🔥🔥
Love your channel. Please, though, do something about the spotty audio quality. The narration parts were fine, but the audio on the talking-head parts was muddy and hard to understand.
Vileplume is so much better as a name!
Ooh cool! Thanks Tasha :)
Was this the inspiration for the plants in Super Mario Bros.?
....The ones that are mushrooms?
Hah,Loved the ending joke bit
Where’s the love for Gloom!
It's right there at 4:15. :D
(0:18) Oh!!! No, thank you~ 😳😂 Rafflesia is a very unique and lonely flower~🤗💞
Thank you for sharing this unique video~👍✨
🔆AniFam〽️
That pun was a real stinker!
Reminds me of my ex. She has... u know...
This looks like a pokemon!
Vileplume it's based on this plant
We love a Pokemon reference. Do cordyceps and Paras next?
Vileplume approves
This flower looks vile but also so cool!!
Vileplume
the name for vileplume in french is litteraly rafflesia
So cool though I don't want one in my garden lol
So this is what inspired the design of that giant cyber newtype mobile armour in Gundam F91.
That such a unique name for a parasite flower
Taraxacus , the dendilion , just how tough are they ?
Looks like a back drop to classic Star Trek lol great vid
Corpse flowers are my favorite type of flowers
Idc
One of my favorite flowers because of Vileplume ☺️
The outtakes really made this one of the best episodes so far
Suggestion: The state flower of California, the poppy.
wheres oddish and gloom???
vileplume should have stench ability
Thanks so much for featuring this plant I've been fascinated by it since I a kid and saw a story about it in Nat Geo
One day, yall gonna do something boring like the dandylion. And its still gonna be fun to watch.
I hope not😣
OOH
A DANDELION
MUST BE THE LAST ONE OF THE SEASOM
Man, nature is WILD.
This is my favourite flower! It's so unique!
I used to think these were corpseflowers....until you guys did the episode on the corpse flower
A delicacy, sure, but delicious? I seriously doubt that.
sometimes flowers look spooky
When you accidentally summons plantera in real life...
Every nature video recently
“but lately (insert species) isn’t doing so well because humans are eating the world”
We should just annihilate the humans
How 'bout a local parasitic plant, colt's foot? There's a bunch of patches blooming around here (Ontario) right now. My favourite sign of spring!
Amazing looking flower. Thank you would love to see these.
i miss seeing bloopers like these in videos
Imagine happening to live where it grows and you can go to your local forest and see something like THIS. wow.. I can only imagine
I’ve never heard about a parasite flower before
Idk why these things appear so vile to me. Some of the floralogic videos have been a sort of exposure therapy for me. And for that I thank you 😅😅
Mandrakes next? (Yes , before anyone says , they are real, and i loved the vídeo :3)
Can we get a video on echinacea, otherwise known as purple coneflowers?
I love FloraLogic videos! Hiring you was the best decision this channel ever made
2:38
does this reminds you of a pepperoni sliced with melted mozzarella and cheddar on the center? 🤣🤤
Except pepperoni MIGHT not smell like a carcass lmao
Learning is fun. Thanks!
I would like to learn more about bamboo next.
vileplume is literally named after rafflesia.
I am lucky one then. I saw this flower when i visit bengkulu province, for fishing trips in the jungles. The smell i still cant forget after 4 years...😁
I live in bengkulu. But never yet to saw coz idk, im scary when i see road to the flower 😂
Why doesn't Floralogic have it's own channel yet?
You should talk about aquatic plants. Kelp or water lilies, please.
@Animalogic I wish u guys talked more about Pokémon and their origins on the channel and it would still be relevant since they are based on real animals
Doubt u will see my comment tho
Animalogic is about plants and animals.
Not about childrens' games.
Just saying... ⚘
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Pokémon is about animals and plants too tho their origins are tied to real animals
You obviously didn’t real my comment
Also it’s for all ages
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Pokémon are based on real animals and plants so it’s still relevant
Read what I said
@@madnessarcade7447 pff "children's games"
@@timharders I didn’t call it a children’s game they did why did u tag me
Rafflesia arnoldii is the real definiton of being simple outside but very complex inside
I love her, she's so great!
I love the channel and this playlist!How about Tillandsia aka air plants, or the Epiphytes in general, for a next video? I have pictures I can send you. 😊👍
Animal logoc is so Great! Keep it up. But omg i LOVE floralogic!!! Please keep it coming
I want this to have it's own channel!
I like looking at the pictures but I am not interested in the smell at all. They look so cool. However, I LOVE that jacket Tasha is wearing
Ive waited a long time for this video
My girlfriend has asked to request the giant hogweed. I guess it's the plant version of the xenomorph from Alien, as it has caustic sap! So there's that.
Also it's a pretty intimidating plant when you encounter one in the wild..!
We cleaned some of that out of a yard once. It's becoming terribly invasive. My sister got a ton of scars from the sap.
@@BonaparteBardithion Went on a walk through the countryside and came across a whole patch of it, looming high above everything else like triffids, really eerie. Stepped around it very carefully!
We had a field of those bastards and it took years to weed them out and finally get them to stop spreading.
Woah, I love your videos. Keep it up. Very refreshing and informative👍🏿
Could you please make a video on poppy? I've once seen it and related species and it was very beautiful and not quite what I'd expected...
It looks like a pretty basic flower, the kind you'd find in any ornamental garden. But poppy has had a huge impact historically.
"Some people think its an aphrodisiac"
Yea! Like people are gonna get a bone on after smelling ROTTEN FLESH
I suggest the jabuticaba tree. It isn't as fancy as other plants but it does have unconventional fruits, so to speak.
Tasty too!
I know stuff about these corpse plants, but I can't help but watch videos on them. It's crazy that it's a parasitic plant!
The outtakes were hilarious, btw.
Corpse flower started from seedling 8 yrs ago is about to bloom any day now at Myriad Botanical Gardens in OKC
Rafflesia the national flower in Indonesia 👍
Can you please do the octopus stinkhorn/devil's fingers? :) It looks alien!
They did. Check their video The Devil’s Fingers Fungus Is Straight Out Of Alien
from February.
@@Squirrely456 Thank you! :)
1:39 the malay guide didn't write a paper describing the species. It's not always about who discovered it first but who publishes the findings. Prettys sure majority of tropical flora and fauna were first discovered by the locals before any European scientists got to describing them.
If I were to rename the rafflesia I'd name it the "Pepperoni Flower" lmao
Rafflesia is not Indonesia's national flower, implying it's the only one. Indonesia has three national flowers. Jasminum Sambac as the Nation's Flower, Moon Orchid as the Flower of Charm, and Rafflesia Arnoldii (Also sometimes; Titan Arum) as the Rare Flower.
I never realized that the corpse flower, or Titan arum as I've just now learned it's proper name, was actually multiple flowers. My high school used to house one during its bloom and the smell was wicked unpleasant, especially early I the morning
Now I understand the name, Vile-plume, a vile plumage because it stinks, which is why its primary moves are the powder moves!
Was floralogic gonna be its own channel or will it stay part of this one?
I was delighted to see these in Final Fantasy XIV as part of the exotic flora and fauna of The Diadem.
