    Funny enough, I was actually the little kid on the Battle Dome play set way back in the day and can confirm that the shiny Kingdra was apart of the original concept. The battle dome you showed was very similar to the one I used when shooting the pictures but they took off some of the parts for different photos. To be honest (as a HUGE Pokemon fan growing up) I did notice the “discolored” Kingdra but most of the toys/props they used were cheaply made as they were cropping most of them out or photo editing something else in (an example being that the cannon I am “holding” on the box was actually not there I had to pretend I was holding it for hours hahaha). They just used the toys as references so I am guessing that they just did not care if they were accurate or not. Still cool to see that a toy I modeled for is in your video hahaha

    I actually triggered the Arceus event when I was a kid completely unknowingly.
    I had an action replay at the time, and had used it to do the Arceus event in Pearl cause I saw people on CZcams do it, and wanted to experience it myself. I eventually transferred this Arceus to my first Soul Silver playthrough. I came across it by accident having not seen anything about it. I remember being really weirded out by the whole thing and not really knowing what to think. I was hyped when I got the egg though lol.

    Charizard being weak to ice actually lead to me believing for YEARS that fire and ice were both super effective against each other. Eventually I believed that his was either specific to gen 1 or something I made up entirely as a dumb kid. Thinking about it a few months back I finally pieced together that I misattributed the weakness to fire as a whole because Charizard would be my sole fire type, and I often forgot he was part flying. It absolutely blew my mind.

      I like to think of it as a conjurer whose in the middle of transforming themselves to mirror the environments they are in. If their concentration is slightly off, there is still a chance of them missing completely and therefore, not being able to fully complete their transformation.
      In that sense, I like to think of the initial phase surrounding the move nature power as the "setting up" phase prior to the transformation variable taking full effect.

    You can probably also activate the Mr. Briney's house rival encounter by catching a Ralts and raising it until it learns Teleport if you don't want to black out. There's also another interesting trick you can do involving Teleport in the early game. If you bring something with Teleport with you to the Rustburo gym battle, you can Teleport as soon as you win the battle and exit the gym. This skips the trigger which starts the Team Aqua event at Rusturf Tunnel, so it doesn't activate until you walk into the zone it'd normally trigger.

      Also he mispronounced Rayquaza. Actually, nobody says Rayquaza right except for that one special episode of the anime in Pokémon X and Y. Rayquaza's name is based on the word "quasar", and if you check Oxford Dictionary, the pronunciation is /ˈKWĀˌzär/, not /ˈKWÄˌzär/. It's one of those things everybody gets wrong that's really annoying, like people struggling to pronounce "Zacian" when Bulbapedia says the name is based on the word "cyan", so it's not "zah-shee-an" or something, it's "za-SY-AN" like CYAN, just like "zaMAZENTA" is MAGENTA.

    2:25 It's been awhile since I had Pokemon Ranch so I could be wrong but I used to use it all the time, trying to trigger events and get Hayley's special Pokemon (especially that nifty Mew 👀). One event I remember is if you transfered a certain number of Water type Pokemon you could make them all ride a giant wave across the ranch. Another one that can be unlocked happens when you transfered a certain amount of Flying types you could make them fly in a huge V-shape! There's others I can't recall enough to describe though, I'm 80% certain there's a stampede one with Tauros and Miltanks (Maybe Normal types?) and a Psychic type one akin to the ones above where they all float. As well as a lot of Pokemon specific ones, there's Gardevoir one I think? Anyway! Pretty neat! I feel special knowing I've seen them haha!

    I know it's hard to believe but in 2002 I had a Shiny Kingdra on my Pokemon Crystal Italian Cartridge.
    Captured after having catched Lugia in the Cave where he was.
    And it was a Red Horsea, which I made evolve in Seadra and Kingdra later.
    I guess through Pokemon Silver If I do remember correctly, I "cloned" it to have also a shiny Horsea and a shiny Seadra
    So in the end I had - with complicity of my friends who wanted it so much - around 10 shiny Horsea/Seadra/Kingdras, making 30 of those

    10:52 this is my favourite bit of Pokémon shiny hunting. Every RPG acknowledge secret collectibles and rare items, so they’re completely public and no longer secret. Shinies, in the other hand, are almost completely secret. The average player won’t find out about them without outside help, and are an amazing collectible that’s somewhat acknowledged in recent games, but still seemingly ignored and practically forgotten about by Nintendo. True game design at its peak (and that’s serious).

    An alternative answer to the shiny Kingdra figure is that the mold coloring was not complete. This is very common in test samples and prototypes of action figures. This would explain it's Red body as well.
    Granted it still existed, and was used in a promotional image for the playset, lots of sample products are either destroyed or stolen/sold off by the factory workers.

    • @Zepimo123
      @Zepimo123 Před 2 lety +27

      Also, forgot to mention. The fact that it's a test image of the set also explains the odd display choices. The Pikachu figures, bonsly and mudkips are all from other figure packs(I actually have both of the Pikachu figures, they were released in a pack of 3 Pokemon iirc)
      This also explains the armless and off color Geodudes, they are most likely incomplete molds of the final Geodude figure, in fact you can tell that they are in an even earlier state of production because of the lack of polishing and sharp edges.

    1:46 - they also use a completely different sprite there! The color is one thing (the GBC can have more palettes on screen than you'd think, so it's still definitely an oversight), but the sprite being different is pretty odd. Probably ram limitations forcing them to just use the sprites used elsewhere in the area, since G/S _can_ run on the original GB as well...

    Thank you so much for bringing up the Pokemon Combat Figures. I've held onto my figures over the years, but I've never been able to search for more since I'd forgotten what they were called. I currently have a Nidorino, Graveler, Blastoise, Venasaur, and Charizard (albeit with a missing wing), and used to have an Articuno figure before I gave it away. I've always loved those figures since they were so much bigger than the Tomy figures I had in my collection.
    Maybe one of these days I'll see how much they go for so I could purchase a few more of them.
    I also still have My Pokemon Ranch on my Wii, and it still works, so maybe one of these days I'll see if I can get some footage of some of the other in-game events that no one else shared online. Thank you for sharing this video, I really enjoyed seeing all of the old footage and learning all of these cool facts.
    I also really wish I went to the Pokemon Center in NYC before it changed into Nintendo World. I first went to Nintendo World during my high school years, which was shortly after the Pokemon Center's final year. I live pretty close to New York too, but back then middle school aged me didn't know where exactly the Pokemon Center was and how to convince my parents to take me, lol.

    Mega Beedrill has Special Attack and Pokedex no. of 15
    Clefairy has Speed and Pokedex no. of 35
    Mega Alakazam has Defense and Pokedex no. of 65
    Slowbro & Mega Slowbro have Special Defense and Pokedex no. of 80
    Voltorb & Hisuian Voltorb have Speed and Pokedex no. of 100
    Mega Gyarados has Special Defense and Pokedex no. of 130
    Mega Mewtwo Y has Attack and Pokedex no. of 150
    From this we can conclude a few interesting things:
    Only Generation 1 Pokemon & their alternate forms share a Pokedex no. with a stat
    Discounting alternate forms, just 3 Pokemon share a Pokedex no. with a stat, Clefairy, Slowbro & Voltorb
    There are 48 Mega forms meaning 10.42% of all Mega-Pokemon share a Pokedex no. with a stat
    There are 898 standard form Pokemon meaning just 0.33% share Pokedex no. with a stat
    No Pokemon shares its Pokedex no. with 2 or more of its stats
    No Pokemon shares its Pokedex no. with its HP stat, but there is at least one case of sharing for all other stats
    Hisuian Voltorb is the only regional form to share a Pokedex no. & base stat, it inherits this from its standard form
    Mega Slowbro is the only Mega form to have inherited its shared Pokedex no. & base stat from its standard form
    Slowbro has a regional form in Galarian Slowbro that does not inherit the shared Pokedex no. & base stat, it is the only alternate form for which this is true
    Clefairy is the only standard form Pokemon that shares a Pokedex no. & base stat to not have passed this trait on to exactly 1 alternate form
    Clefairy & Hisuian Voltorb are the only Pokemon of these available in Legends : Arceus
    Clefairy is the only Pokemon of these available in Sword or Shield (and so the only one available in every main series game)

The phenomena of salamanders keeping their tadpole traits is called neoteny, with axolotls being an obligate neotene (but can be artificially caused to lose them)
      Would be cool to get a regional mudkip that isn't a neotene and becomes a land-dwelling salamander!
