      You see, you made a huge mistake on Staryu. Hermaphrodite is an organism that can be male *AND* female, not *or*.
      Also fun fact: Hedgehogskinners (gr. Echinodermata), which includes starfishes, reproduces with both sexes (gonochory), it is, they have male and female individuals.

    One fact that fits the desciption is one that makes you facepalm due to how ridiculous. Shigeki Morimoto comfimed that Lugia was supposed to be a water/flying type, but the changed it to psychic type to make it feel more powerful. This is because the psychic type was the most powerful type in gen 1. That is the only reason why it's psychic type and it's the stupidest reason a pokemon has their type.

    • @IAmMissingnoMaster
      @IAmMissingnoMaster Před měsícem +9

      I kinda like it, honestly. Very self-aware. They knew Psychic was king back then. Besides, by this point it's just weird to think of Lugia _not_ being a Psychic-type.

    The Misdreavus point is wholly speculative and completely disregards the original two Ghost-type Pokemon from the leaked beta that it replaced. Additionally, the entire Mt Silver map was decreased in size, and changed in layout, but still has plenty of trees. I know as a kid I assumed it was forested. If they were trying to avoid it looking like a forest, they failed miserably.

  • @OrbitZombie
    @OrbitZombie Před měsícem +23

    Misdreavus is based on Nukekubi, a humanlike Japanese yokai that can detatch its head and shrieks to scare humans. Highly doubt the suicide forest connection when its straight up just a ghostly floating head.

    • @MagusAgrippa8
      @MagusAgrippa8 Před měsícem +4

      The shrieking also implies at least some connection to banshees and there's also the fact that it can somewhat resemble the floating head enemies from Castlevania. I highly doubt that the suicide forest was the main inspiration behind Misdreavus.

    More facts:
    1: dispite coming from eggs, Pokemon have belly buttons. Examples are Oshawott (If the scalchop is heavily damaged or lost, Oshawott can grow a new one from its navel) and Incineroar (Incineroar's flame belt is produced from within its body and bursts from its navel)
    2: Jigglypuff is based on Kirby

    • @Kurominos1
      @Kurominos1 Před měsícem +1

      well technically Animals that hatch from an egg could have somethign similar
      when a chicken egg gets broodet the chick develops from a disc on the yolk
      thats the food for the develobing embryo
      in most cases this yolk isnt complelty gone when the chick would hatch
      so 1 day before hatching the chick will "suck" the remaining yolk inside of it and then close this gab up
      and if you look there 1-4 days after hatching you will see that there was something
      but it will not stay
      like whith humans it dissapears over time
      but in this case with many other mammals ,,,they also dont really have belly buttons ,,, they all dissapear after a while compleltly
      but cause we humans knot it together it stays
      this makes me actually curiouse if we humans would cut it off and leave it ,, like other animals do (they just bite it off)
      would then these childs also have no belly button as adults

    Technically, a hermaphrodite is actually an organism that possesses both male and female reproductive parts. You can think of a flower, which as both male parts (pollen-producing parts) and female parts (ovum, which becomes the fruit's seed). And a lot of invertebrate organisms are actually hermaphroditic in this sense, including sea stars

      @IAmMissingnoMaster Před měsícem +3

      Maybe it's like Ponyta's flames- they don't burn the rider if Ponyta trusts them. Maybe whether Araquanid's water bubble protects or drowns depends on Araquanid's intentions.
      Alternatively, it could just be that Araquanid uses the bubble to protect Pokémon that already breathe underwater.

    You got it all wrong regarding Chimchar. It doesn't actually farts endlessly LOL, the gas stays in it's belly and it's only the fire that is created from that gas that is coming out of it's behind. Even the Dex entries that you brought up clearly separate the fire and gas from each other, they said that fire is fueled by the gas which is burns slowly from it's rear end to create that fire. Also it's not like that the gas is actually disgusting like actual fart gas. Again you got it all wrong dude.

  • @Dizantha
    @Dizantha Před měsícem

    Game Freak INTENDED for the mature designs in some Pokémon because it is canon that humans and Pokémon could be in a relationship or get married. As in the Japanese version of the Gen 4 games it straight up says that "humans and Pokémon used to get married all the time" and in Colosseum there is a woman who straight up says that her life-long boyfriend is her Mightyena. This also gets me thinking about where exactly humans evolved from within the Pokémon universe and I believe that humans evolved from the ape Pokémon, so human and Pokémon relationships aren't impossible or can be viewed as taboo as it has already been stated plenty of times that humans and Pokémon have been VERY close to one another. We could also say that the furry media did inspire Pokémon a bit as furry media has been around for centuries including before Pokémon's time.
