Hi lockstin love ur vids
Helo lockstin
I need something to say
Idk what to say
Im a big fan of you lockstin. Stay awsome!
The real question is why does the franchise have to be toxic
Lol mine says this video has 2 views and like 5 likes
"who are you?"
"I learn toxic."
"do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?"
Lol
God I love this meme
BLIGHT
Too bad, that's all you're gonna get.
It does starting in swsh
"Why all pokemon are toxic"
They all use Twitter
*video ends*
Would the pokemon equivalent of twitter be called Spearower?
@@goufukyuserufu9728 maybe Chatter? like Chatot’s signature move
@@elekiddo Chatter is brilliant. Nice pun, rolls off the tounge.
HA...Brilliant
@@goufukyuserufu9728 spearower sounds like a spear that doubles as a boat paddle
Steel types: Lol what's toxic gonna do?
Salazzle: Hold my corrosion
As if most steel types aren't 2HKOd by flamethrower or fire blast (since it gets nasty plot a +2 one might even be OHKO). Yes heatran and toxapex are annoying but I don't need this specifically for them.
@@petelee2477 *poisen types would like to talk to you*
@@pokeoh1831 heatran, toxapex, and tentacruel are the only pokemon really scared of corrosion. Everything else is more afraid of a +2 fire blast.

“My brain runs faster than normal brains” sounds like adhd to me

"So you can't touch the plant again" - Lockstin 2021
Yep
Don't touch weird plant kids, you'll grow fungi in your stomach...
wait...
that doesn't make sense
Well regardless, don't touch weird plants
I enjoy the pocket skitty casually evolving into a pocket delcatty, they deserve more love.
Maybe Magearna can't learn Toxic because it was a gift for a princess and they didn't want her poisoned.
Lockstin: *talks about how water is poison
Me: *takes a drink of water realizing im thirsty
Same!
What if water is poisonous and we drink it because we're addicted to the poison
@@woofee66 Conspiracy theory
@@woofee66 well the same is true for oxygen...
@@hammielover225 we're so addicted to that poison we can't even stay a few minutes without it
Can we all appreciate Lockstin's pocket plush evolving mid-video? (Also, I quite like the zoonotic theory.)
Yeah I noticed and I like that little easter egg.
12:04 Is when Skitty evolves, for anyone wondering~
😐
That smiling Skitty in the thumbnail as poison drips from its mouth is so cute and accurate for today's video 😂
"you could say 5 years isn't almost a decade" 2020 on its own was a decade
The energy behind this comment is a mood I can get behind
And this year has felt like 2 weeks so far
Start of video: Alright, let’s see why Pokémon are all League of Legend Players.
End of video: Alright, well that was sure something.
Look, I know everybody’s heard horror stories of groups of fans doing immoral and sometimes illegal things, or just starting civil wars or whatever, but these fans are always either individuals or small organized cliques of radicals that don’t represent the whole fandom. Every time such a story surfaces, the actions of the vocal minority are condemned by the 99% of good fans. (And by the way, arguing doesn’t make a fandom toxic. Arguing is healthy if handled well. If it isn’t handled well and emotions are taken too far, refer back to what I said about radical fans). Every fandom has a vocal minority, even if they don’t make headlines. You’re more likely to hear such stories from bigger communities, but the ratio of “crazy” to “normal” is the same across fandoms as per a statistical phenomenon called the Law of Large Numbers. People hate fandoms all the time, even though they most likely engage in fandoms themselves. Liking something makes you part of that fandom. And before you push up your anime glasses and tell me that “actually, fandom is short for ‘fanatic domain’ and I am a NORMAL fan, not a crazy fanatic”, may I remind you that denotation does not equal connotation, so while “fanatic” brings to mind images of crazy devotion, it’s just the long word for “fan”. Fan is short for fanatic (as per Oxford Dictionary, or Merriam-Webster, I don’t recall), like how rap is an acronym for “rhythm and poetry” but has become its own word. Also, a domain is just a group in the broadest possible sense, accurately capturing how large and diverse fandoms are. Therefore, a fandom is just all the fans of a specific thing. Your level of engagement in a fandom doesn’t determine how much of a fan you are. Fanartists depend on casuals who view their art, for instance. The masses are just as important as the creators. By hating fandoms, you’re also hating on people who have genuinely been helped by finding a sense of community by connecting with like-minded people. Fandoms don’t ruin things for you if you find the right people in said fandom to interact with. With bigger fandoms especially, it’s not hard. I get that negativity is stronger than positivity, but you’ve got to fight that internal conflict for your own good. It’s your fault that vocal minorities of weird fans are never recognized as such, and are instead chalked up to the whole group. Furthermore, if you say that you like x but hate x fandom, you’re hating yourself too. Remember, you’re technically still part of the fandom, and there’s no rules for how much to have to engage with other people in order to be a fan. I know it’s a popular thing on the internet, but homicidal self-deprecation is unhealthy. It doesn’t matter if you’re trying to say “I’m one of the good fans”, people calling your fandom toxic will still not accept you.
And I don’t want to hear “lol triggered” if you were triggered enough to respond.
@@diamondminer5459 First of all, thanks for the Ted Talk, it really is nice you took your time to make that reply to change a commenter’s mind, but what I meant was to point out an example, in general, a big part of fandoms are toxic, and there are some examples and some communities are healthier than others (by very little lol), but I gave League of Legends there as en example, it’s a notable example of hardcore players playing a game together, which can often turn into something competitive and hands down hard to be in, I can’t assume a big part of it because I’m not from the League of Legends fandom; but I assume that there are still a big part of players that play casually and are able to have fun doing so. So for that, I’m just here to tell you it was an example, I could’ve put the Pokémon Trading Card game for example! So, I’m here to clear that up.
New video idea: a thought experiment on what would happen if pokerus broke the species barrier and infected humans
Could even consider it as a post game story for your fakemon region
For all intents and purposes, Pokèrus would possibly lead to a sort of evolution gate. Alternately provide a true means of curing major diseases that otherwise can't be as it gives the infected, and those around it that it manages to jump to, a boost in growth/health. It IS a really interesting idea worth exploring. Curious to see what his take on it would be.
Wow! Good idea!
It's like symbiotic steroids
Especially with that unknown creepy building
Honestly it probably be like the super soldier serum
I didn't know Lockstin kept a moon stone in his pocket.
I remember a comic where the joke was since almost every Pokémon could learn Toxic, the final panel depicted a Jigglypuff vomiting
Oh I remember that comic
(⑨gang)
Yes Maxil is back. Keep having him make more appearances.
the video took so long to make that pocket skitty evolved into pocket delcatty
When you notice the Skitty in Lockstin’s pocket evolved 😮
"I don't need your sass, but I'd love your comments." Isn't that pretty much every CZcamsr in a nutshell?
Last year and this year so far has felt so long, 2016 feels like two decades ago really.
That's Covid, baby!
That's what happens when you lock yourself away from society in fear. Time flowed normally for those of us in the real world!
That Britney Spears clip caught me off guard
I only went into the comment section to look for a britney comment 🤣
Or make one if no one had
Brace Yourselves the popculture refrences are coming
I looked over that clip, could any of you time stamp it?
@@khadirafarah1314 very beginning of the video. Like 4 secs in
@@skaionex Now is see it, thx for that!
In the Kanto Games, Koga states that the move Toxic was a technique passed down by his family for 400 years. Perhaps it being a ninja technique was Gamefreak's intention for it being so learnable in gen 1
So that would likely mean Koga's family is the one who makes at the very least the Toxic TMs we see in the games, and they have made it in a way that almost every know Pokemon can learn it, except the gimmick Pokemon which whole point are they can't learn anything besides these gimmick move, maybe from natural evolution and having survived with only the gimmick moves it has for for generations, they don't want to learn any other move since it has worked for them for so long they completely trust there moveset to only wanting to know those moves only, and with Magearna being like a philosophers stone, with her core being made out of pure infinity energy, and her being made from metal which is immune to poison in general for most instances, and being completely inorganic, so she doesn't make her own bacteria, and the ones who get on her are killed by her core too fast to learn the tm Toxic at all regardless of Koga's family attempts. Regardless of all that if Koga's Family has been passing it down, the ones they made for the Sinnoh remakes region are either all faulty or they scammed Sinnoh when they sold them the TM's since most Pokemon in gen 1-4 in the remakes can't learn Toxic from TM anylonger.
Me looking at my dog after seing this video:
You're a poison type pokemon! Just don't use toxic at me please, I'll give you a snack
Well, think about it. Your mouth is worse!
I always say my cat is Normal/Dark. Maybe it should be Dark/Poison?
@@scarredchild Same type as drapion?
Fun Fact: There is 270098 published Pokémon art on Rule34
As of posting it's been 15 minutes and I'm 99% sure that number has gone up
So few?
Either this list is wildly incomplete, or Pokemon fans have been slacking off recently...
That's not a FUN fact.
Fun fact number two, the three series with the most rule 34 are pokemon, mlp, and touhou,
(Personally I prefer touhou r34 over the first two)
When people ask you "What's your poison of choice"
Random person 1 - " whiskey"
Random person 2 - "tequila"
Me - "water" I love my electrolytes diluted and messed up
Frisk: Cyanide.
I like how the editor adds his own tiny notes😂
That one second cut-in of a Brittney Spears song actually caught me by surprise
My mans be killin it with these uploads these days
0:02 Twitter in a nutshell
I named my rival in Heartgold Twitter, it feels so good to beat him every. Single. Time
@@sparkeytwo239 lmao
Most people on Twitter are just having fun and living their lives, it’s only the bad parts of Twitter that get amplified and perceived as the majority, as human psychology primes us to do.
Most pokémon being able to learn Toxic is pretty fitting with how awful the actual fanbase can be.
@@Just-Dan It's the only fanbase I'm aware of that has once made a fake rape allegation towards a game developer just cause of some cut virtual creatures. So yeah, I'd say that counts as awful.
@@Just-Dan dont forget ehmmm.... the 34rd rule.......
@@Just-Dan SMOGON's mascot is a coffing. How much more toxic can it get?
man...a Poison type move that actually makes you learn history
gees Lockstin, you devious genius!
Title: *why every pokemon is toxic*
My head: *bro skitty spammed ez in the chat cuz it got one kill after dying 12 times*
"We put so many things into that moist and warm hole".
haha....
Here is the comment I was looking for. Take your thumbs up dammit
I was watching this video and Toxic started playing on the radio midway through what's happening
I love screaming elderly guy on the floor in agony
"Ah magikarp the eldritch horror"
-Lockstin 2021
But why did the computer program Pokémon learn toxic
Have you been on Twitter recently?
Computer Viruses ;)
Social media
League of Legends
(No but seriously, I have no clue)
the internet
"Why would Smeargol learn toxic"
*equips the lead paint item*
This video basically explains the Pokemon Community perfectly
Maybe that's why Toxic is no longer a TM as of SwSh, despite being the game that has had the most toxic pre-release period.
Something I'd really love to see you do is a series where you explain type effectiveness. Like why certain types are super effective, why certain types aren't effective or immune. I think a lot of them are super straightforward but there's a lot of weird ones that I'd love to see you guys explain. (psychic and poison comes to mind)
Psychic being effective against Poison comes from the "mind over matter" gimmick. Like, a focused monk being able to overcome being poisoned from sheer will alone. Or it could be a pun on "words can never hurt me" since someone who spits poison or say venomous words wouldn't effect someone with a strong mind. Either way I always thought it was the other way around and kept getting my ass kicked lmao ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The skitty thumbnail is amazing
0:12 BOYS BOYS BOYS IS THAT WHO I THINK IT IS
I'm sorry, Skitty is freaking adorable, even with poison dripping from its mouth
DAMN YOU FOR GETTING BRITTNEY SPEAR'S TOXIC STUCK IN MY HEAD
But also thank you as that song's absolute banger of an intro is so iconic
Oh, Skitty evolved mid-video... Nice!
I can just hear DSP (DarkSydePhil) asking the age old question, "Why am I so toxic?"
From my understanding of some reptiles, Komodo dragons have an anti-coagulant venom like a bearded dragon but turned up to 22 so the body can't heal from the bite, easily allowing bacteria to enter the wound and for plenty of blood to be lost.
Please correct me if I am wrong
5:36 Its been almost 20 years, and I just now realized that confusion effect is ducks, and not very strange faces
Even Chansey and Audino, two Pokemon associated with nurses and healing, can learn Toxic
And toxic Chansey is very annoying in competitive play, at that
@@mr.sandman7339 Even if you attack her with physical moves (especially Fighting-type)?
@@connorreed7523 She still lives a lot of unboosted physical moves quite comfortably with eviolite+max defense EVs+Bold nature, gets the toxic off, switches out, and heals herself up on something else.
@@mr.sandman7339 I'm not into competitive Pokemon, I'm just saying Chansey has a base physical defense of 5 or something, and as a Normal-type she's weak to Fighting.
But then why doesn't bite cause badly poisoned?
Lol it's fine good video.
The jump in quality went up 300% between the last video and it's clear as day. I love all the work put into these videos.
13:44 THAT KOF BACKGROUND THO
4:44 Shout out to those who respect Merriam-Webster.
I like that his pocket skitty evolved towards the end of the video.
“And we put so many things in that warm and moist whole that we get so many germs in it” -Lockstin, 10:27
I love how one of the “animals” at 9:07 is a hellhound
This was pretty awesome video. Really interesting, specially the connection of Magearna´s nurse inspirations to the reason why it doesn´t learn toxic. I think Margearna may also not learn toxic because (it is said) that she may pull inspirations from the philosopher stone. As far as I remember, the philosopher stone is partially known for being able cure illness and even be used to create an elixir of life. So maybe that´s also part of the reason why it doesn´t learn toxic. I
Never seen you before, but somehow this video just showed up in my recommended. Good video, good job :)
He is pretty epic
His deep dive videos are really good defiantly check out his other videos when you have the time
Lockstin I've learned more from you than I have College and School in the past. Thanks for all weekly teachings. I love your videos. I've watched other videos aswell as the Pokemon ones.
Lockstin: says magical healing spit
Me: *immediately thinks of magic death spit*
Lockstin: Sorry for be a toxic CZcamsr
Me: Do insult yourself like that Lockstin.
You are not Verlisify.
*Lillie wear Nurse Joy outfit and Megearna assist her*
cool
OwO I know where this is going
Once again thanks, for helping me with my depresion and dark days :) You are THE BEST !
this video was super cool. aside from the fakemon stuff, my favorite videos of yours are the ones where you use pokemon to trick me into learning something i wouldn't have known otherwise.
So Magearna doesn't learn Toxic because it's a Nurse...
So then why do Chansey and Audino still learn the move?
Maybe it's a combination of being inorganic and a healer. It was made with very specific elements (most likely non-toxic) where as the organic healers can still have bacteria and germs on them.
Also, many types of medicines can be deadly when they are not administratored as a specific dosage. As an automaton Magearna was probably programed specifically unable to administrator incorrect dosages. The other Pokemon probably have more free will in a way and could Poison someone if they wanted or were ordered to.
@@rockinrootbeer1795 Good point actually, in fact Chansey even has a toxin she could easily deliver, Botulism, just gotta let one of them eggs go bad XD
This man is just like the embodiment of golden retriever energy and vibes
Really good video!! I never thought about it in this way
Now i need a video exploring deeper into Magearna origin
The reason Magearna cant learn Toxic is because it would be too broken in competitive
It can learn perfect coverage for any situation, has amazing stats, great pivoting and utility, every set up move it needs + Stored Power, it's good in trick room, best defensive typing in the game, and an ability that gives it +1 if another pokemon faints for ANY reason...
Good thing it can't use Toxic bc that would just be too much
@@mr.sandman7339 yeah Magearna just got banned
I don’t think it would really matter, it’s not like Magearna really needs it anyway.
V tuber lockstin is what I live for.
5:35 I like the confusion effect
The editing on this video was great! Really enjoyed it
I'm getting married!
*Uses Toxic*
The meaning of marriage is so deeply rooted in patriarchy and gender inequality that-
Marriage is fine. Divorce is where sexism is at. I hope alimony and no-fault divorce will cease to exist
Last time I was this early, my starter was rowlet
Are you telling us you've already played Legends: Arceus? 🤔
I get that magearna's design inspirations help keep it from learning toxic but at the same time, it's metal, the main thing you tend to get tetanus from. Heck it doesn't even have to be rusty or dirty, you get scratched or stabbed by some metal, disease
"and we put so many things in that warm and moist hole that we have so many germs in it" one of the best out of context lines ever
Who kinda got jump scared by the “venomous bacteria”
I did
That split second of Britney killed me lol
This was a really cool video! it's always fascinating to learn about things that are described way to vaguely like what is a poison. Have heard about the Women nurse changing healthcare before; the easiest thing for me to remember from that bit of history is how so many doctors(who were pretty much only men at the time) claimed that a gentleman's hands could never be dirty and one even refused to wash his hands for anything. Might be wrong but ii remember that story ended with the particularly stubborn doctor contracting disintary from not washing between his water closet and kitchen times. Also a lot of dead patients... which admittedly really sucks.
One of my favorite Pokémon Tumblr posts (more or less paraphrased):
"Is is cheating to teach toxic to every Pokémon in my team?"
"Not at all, I'd love to hear them sing it!"
It's also notable that, for chemical poisons, generally speaking the poison takes full effect immediately, and declines in potency as the body metabolizes it. A living infection is the only kind of "poison" that can be introduced in a small amount and grows within the body, which is how Toxic works.
0:12 i like the idea of as a swear censor, it’s just the gen 4 evos. Like Gallade,Electavire,Rhyperior,Dusknoir,
Magmortar and Togekiss
Just wanted to mention as a small correction to 3:32 that regular poison starts at and stays at 1/8th max hp per turn (since Gold/Silver)
I like how you chapter(parting it into segments) your video.
Also, did your skitty acciedently hit a moon stone in your plush stash?
Extremely insightful and fun as usual!
Thank you again for amazing, funnily edited and informative video. ^w^
Also as a side note, I have no idea why but pocket Skitty and Delcatty are like happyness juice for my melancholic, tired brain. Just a little extra cuteness shot when ever I notice them through out the video peeking from chest pocket. So thank you for that little extra effort you did making this video. Highly appreciated.
I’m still trying to wrap my head around the point where I blinked and Skitty turned into Delcatty in your pocket. Lol but I didn’t actually know that stat about Toxic and Pokemon. That’s really cool! Thanks for imparting your wisdom.
This video makes a lot of sense thanks for making it.
"I don't need your sass - but I do want your comments!" What a great line 🤣 this whole video was very interesting! Thank you so much for sharing!
Awesome video... btw your lockemon video with your nurse joy pokemon isn't in the playlist for lockemon
For some reason 3:46 gave me a sudden euphoria that dissappeared soon after with no memory of why it could’ve happened.
The bacteria example is probably a good way to explain how Toxic is 85% accurate and formerly on the “near-universal TM” list, and that Poison-types having more effective poisons makes Toxic 100% accurate from them.
Very informative!! Love it!!!
i love this video it has an extra chaotic vibe
Death Battle showed the Poison Water in the Charizard vs Blastoise vs Venusaur video.
That's why I still get PTSD from seeing the animation of Hydro Pump
Thanks for teaching us the neat things :D
“Ever heard of water poisoning?”
Me, someone who drank way too much water for a long time and was water poisoned for a while: yes
The poison range: not wanting touch the plant again to not being able to touch the plant again
Lockstin, that projector in the back is so fireeeee
9:29 OMG, that hilarious screaming fading in lol
