    Charizard, Arbok, Gyarados, Kingdra, Exeggutor and Dragonite are all Kanto Dragons through either form changes, native typing or Egg Group. So I suspect Lance has all of them in his repertoire. Aerodactyl is probably based on the fact that dinosaur skeletons are long believed to be the inspiration for tales of dragons.

    Going off of this theory, I got to wondering what Dragon-type Pokemon were native to the Kanto region before the series of events that led to their decline, and extinction in some cases. So, going off of the theory presented in this video; of all the known Pokemon with the Dragon typing or Dragon elements, which ones were actually native to the ancient Kanto region? I suspect we won't know for sure which of those theorized are accurate before the Kanto region gets its own Legend Arceus treatment, but until then, it could be fun to theorize about some of that.

    Going off appearance, the Dragon Scale is either a scale from a Gyarados or a Kingdra themself, both live in the water rather than land where the Kanto fairy-types live. In reality Kingdra not being in Kanto is most likely due to wild item/trade evolutions largely not being a thing until Let's Go. While I'd say it's possible all Pokemon found in the Safari Zone only (Let's Go aside) aren't native to their region, their aquatic lifestyle in early stages suggests Dragonite may have lived at Mt Moon and Cerulean.

  • @LunarWingCloud
    @LunarWingCloud Před 10 měsíci +4

    In reality Dragonite is the only Dragon type family because Dragon type was a very late addition to the type list during the development of the games, so it's likely they only assigned it to Dragonite so it had what they thought was a powerful and rare type. The same thing happens to Ghost type and Gengar even though Gengar was an early creation as far as the creatures go. Helix Chamber has a lot of great info on the betas and prototypes

    Random tangentially-related mini-theory. As you said, Mr. Mime isn’t in the wild in the aka to games, but it _is_ in Kanto for the Johto games, on Route 21. This proximity to Pallet Town makes me wonder if Red released his Mr. Mime and it started a colony there or something.
    Fairy types in Kanto would only really explain Mt. Moon’s lack of Dragon-types, in my opinion. And even then, how do we explain the presence of both types in other regions like Kalos or Galar?

  • @NuncleG
    @NuncleG Před 10 měsíci +1

    I believe that when resurrecting fossils, the Rock typing overlays the primary type.
    Kabutops - Bug/ Water
    Omastar - Dark/ Water
    Aerodactyl - Dragon/ Flying
    Armaldo - Water/ Bug
    Cradily - Poison/ Grass
    Rampardos - Fighting
    Bastiodon - Rock/ Steel
    Carracosta - Steel/ Water
    Archeops - Normal/ Flying
    Tyrantrum - Dark/ Dragon
    Aurorus - Fairy/ Ice.
    The only exception is Galar, which are the only ones that require two fossils. So the Fossilized Bird contains the DNA of a Pokemon that would have been Dragon/ Electric, brought back as Rock/ Electric. Whereas the Fossilized Dino would have been Water/ Ice, brought back as Rock/ Ice. But when those two fossils combine it becomes Electric/ Ice.
    That's why Aerodactyl is a Dragon.

    I think this can be expanded to explain why Nidorino and Nidorina are able to be found in the Safari Zone. They feel so out of place there, all these rare pokemon, and then these two. Two Poison types who evolve by moon stone. A protective measure put in place by the safari zone to ward off any fairy types, and to prevent any fairy types being drawn in by the allure of a potentially dropped moon stone by a random forgetful trainer.

    Something to consider. Many Pokedex mention Magikarp wasn't as pathetic compare to its counterpart from the past?
    What if the strong Majikarp made Gyarados a Dragon type?

      I've always thought Aero was supposed to be its own separate stand alone mon similar to Lapras, and it had the Dragon/Flying typing. But was later changed to Rock/Flying in development due to game balancing and it looks out of place with the other fossils. Its near the end of the dex, its the only 3rd member in a group of fossils, it requires its own unique item to revive, it doesn't even learn any Rock type moves in Gen 1 through level up or TM but it can learn Dragon Rage, it just all seems very tacked on like it was thrown together at the last minute.

    the idea was that Dragon were meant to be rare and not obtained by many trainers. Obviously they didn't made Charizard part Dragon since that would unbalance the starter trio. Seadra/Gyarados could of been Water/Dragon but that typing would of been too broken in gen one. Aerodactyl was a fossil pokemon so Rock was pretty much given and Flying made sense since it is based on the Pterodactyl species. Alola Exeggutor is only in the wild in Alola for obvious reasons.

    It's only a generational divide...
    So in canon, Kingdra is in Kanto as well...
    All Gen 2 Pokemon are Kanto Pokemon and Gen 1 Pokemon are Johto Pokemon...
    Also, the main reason dragon types are so rare could just be because of how small Kanto and Johto even put together actually are...
    Dragons probably just a rarer type in general and when the region is so small, there is just the chance that finding it is hard...

    Dragon type was design only for Dragonite, costume made for them, gameplay wise they are the rarest to find and serve as a final boss so they gave them a type that resist all the starters and is only weak to ice, another rare type that probably was also added late in development.
    Bug, poison, ghost, flying and a bunch of other secondary types were put there as an afterthought, I just imagine GF coming up with secondary types "wow Lizardon has wings! we should give him the bird type, but its not a bird! So change it to flying type instead!"... it probably went like that, and I'm sure it happened with the other types people complain about all the time on here.
    Ghost type for example, they didn't come up with dark type or abilities yet so they gave gengar poison, which is a secondary type, so they costume made one for him so they can feel more ghost like, but you know they f*ck up halfway through and ended up a glitchy mess
    Also, why would they give a starter the *special type*? Charizard wasn't getting the especial boy treatment back them!
    And for anyone wondering the og types probably were Fire, Grass, Water, Electric, Fighting, Psychic and Normal. The rest are redundant and could be abilities, even today

For example we have all speculated about Kabutops being an ancestor to Scyther so maybe was originally Bug/Water. Omastar may have been an ancestor of Starmie and was originally Psychic/Water and that would leave Aerodactyl having originally been Dragon/Flying?

    I like the idea of fall of the moon stone being the Pokemon equivalent of the KT event. What the NPCs describe is basically a meteor shower with radioactive space rocks. So perhaps at some point most larger Pokemon died out, leaving the smaller, aquatic, or subterranean ones behind.
    The ones that survived would likely struggle to adapt as the environment changed, and their prey either becoming scarce or growing stronger due to the affects of the moon stones. Not just gaining the fairy type, think about little Nidorans becoming Nidokings and Nidoqueens.

    I'm guessing this is why a natural Dragon/Fairy Pokémon has yet to exist, too, as two natural enemies wouldn't really be able to cross-breed to create a new hybrid species that has both of their typings - the only Dragon/Fairy Pokémon we know of at present is Mega Altaria, and Mega Evolution requires a strong bond between that Pokémon and its Trainer through use of a Mega Stone, which wouldn't exist among wild Pokémon because, y'know, they have no trainers.
    Maybe we'll discover one in Gen 10? But that's like, five or six years away, so it'll be a while before GameFreak creates a brand new Dragon/Fairy dual type for us.

      The "dragon" type in Gen 1 was more like an ability than anything; something special given to a late game Pokemon so they would be resistant to the all the STAB moves of all the Starters in exchange for not having a STAB move itself.

    I really doubt type match ups affect Pokémon Biology outside of direct mentions, for example: Durant and Heatmor.
    Fairy mons while made to counter dragon types in competitive, they don't have dex entries supporting them predation on dragons or any other for of aggression. We even have a fairy hunting a steel mon and quiet literally, thier worst match up possible.
    And why focusing on Kanto? Johto has even less dragons and their Fairies are native. And Grandbull looks like an animal that could actually want to hunt something, unlike Clerairy or Jigglypuff.

    Not all Steel types have literal steel in their biology, and not everything that has steel in their biology has to be a Steel type.
    Etc.
    Type = what a Pokémon is good at
    Egg-group = what a Pokémon's biology is like

  • @bankrupt_batman
    @bankrupt_batman Před 10 měsíci

    I think typing has nothing to do with the pokemons physicality. It just refers to the energy type. That why chrizard and gyrados ate both none dragon type dragons. They use flying, water, and flying energy to attack. They both use dragon attacks, but not as strong as a "true dragon". This would make more sense than dragon shaped pokemon that aren't dragons. Gurados' dex entry suggest it's a dragon and dragonite is charizards greatest natural enemy. Dragonite and charizard are a representation of the legend of two dragons fighting. That also why some ghost pokemon are actually ghosts while some are just normal with ghost abilities.

    This theory is interesting.
    But since Gen 1 and even the Kanto Remakes of Fire Red & Leaf Green, there isn't Fairy Typing this theory doesn't work.
    If you had discussed the fact that majority of the Water Type Pokemon in Kanto/Johto can learn Ice Moves and some even have Ice Typing caused this situation then that would make a little more sense.

    The idea of those Fairy hunting down all the dragon is kinda funny(in a good way).. Yes we know Fairy is Dragon slayer but in ecology of pokemon world its not always type that strong against hunting its supereffective target. Because we also has Tinkaton(Fairy) hunt Corviknight(Steel) and Lurantis(Grass) hunt Bugs pokemon as it prey..
    So maybe there is other culprit that hunt all the Dragon in kanto thats not a Fairy
