Pokemon theories are a lot of fun, because they present what's possible within the Pokemon world. Sometimes, however, these theories are so crazy that they can't possibly be true, yet they still make perfect sense! In today's video, we will be covering 3 theories just like this, that present crazy ideas, but have legit evidence to back them up!

I don't think there was really a Pokem=ball for items. You can store impossible amounts of items within your fanny pack in Legands: Arceus. Sure there's Pokeballs in that game too, but they were recently invented at that time so it is less likely that Item Pokeballs would've been a thing back then.
the first theory, is actually true but yours no, how do you know have to later or see?
While the rest of the theory makes sense, the names of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres shouldn't be taken into consideration, since they're something that was changed in translation.
I came here to say this, but you beat me to it.
Almost right. Thunders and Booster are Jolteon and Flareon. Zapdos and Moltres are Thunder and Fire.
Point still stands, though. No 'uno, dos, tres' to be seen.
Don't know the birds Japanese names but maybe well get more lore towards these bird, maybe
And the 2nd gen was suposed to be the last one so they couldn't have even foreshadowed it
One other thing is that game freak did not know that they would make more regions after gen 1.
Another additional argument for black blob theory is that shelder can alter the evolution of Slowbro line by attaching itself on the body of said Pokemon.
What if the unknown Pokemon from the first theory is infact, unown. Tell me you couldn't see an unown turning into a wynot tail. I love the idea that what if unowns hidden power determined what it evolves into ie grass tangla, water shelder.
Unowns true hidden power
Yeah like some sort of strange evee
wyNAUT
@@austinl8884 my bad should have checked the spelling
While the Unown being the building blocks of reality is some sort of a thing them evolving into actual Pokemon under certain conditions is highly speculative, however the black blobs do have a naturally occurring evolution and it's the black sphere with teeth. It's depicted in Shelder when it evolves into Cloyster where the black blob turns into a sphere, develops teeth and hardens to mirror a pearl. We now also know that at one point a baby Tangela was one of these amorphous one eyed spheres with morphed legs and a Tangela evolution or split evolution was going to be a sphere with teeth. There is something going on in Pokemon with the blobs but judging from them evolving sinister smiles it cant be good.
I just noticed that Unown share the same strange eyes on the black blobs.
Also, Sigilyph appears to have Black Blob/Unown similarities.
5:06 Could also be Mimikyu in Alola. We never truly get to see its eyes but that could be the same Pokémon. Its just a lot scarier in Alola but not to us. Why? Bc we're not from Alola naturally٫ so we had more of an experience with this Pokémon unlike those from Alola. (Yes I know there's evidence against this in the anime I dont care. 😇)
It's Zmove shows it's eyes.
@@Snowmon89 nah the eyes just glow and we see the glow
@@FyreMoon1 there shown in the anime
I actually hate everything about this especially the logic and sense. As in there is none and you should feel bad for not being a good thing. People are going to laugh at you and you should feel shame.
7:53 It does not work. Japanese names have no Spanish references. Moreover, you were wrong. Their appearance resembled the legendary we know and that's why they are called so
There's also the fact that they are also coming from a land where there are plenty of legendary Pokemon coming out of wormholes, so there's other reasons that they could be there outside of flying north for the summer.
Honestly, I'm surprised he used Canadian goose as the example for "the fact that its a regional varient doesn't mean that it isn't necessarily from there" since we got a regional variant that is apparently the original: Zigzagoon.
Quick note on the "item ball," though due to the nature of the source, ymmv on how canon it is: in Colosseum and XD, the found items were contained in pokéball themed boxes.
Although pokeballs were rarer in that region because there were less wild pokemon, so...
Dont forget that pokemon have japanese names :( the english ones are just interpreted
I've seen a theory that Wobbuffet might be related to Unown due to the eyes and black body. Given their placements in the Johto dex and shared typing, I think that Wobbuffet might have originally been its evolved form.
It does makes sense with the first theory, especially since they specialise with defensive stats, either physical defense, hp or both, as well as each being 2 stage evolutions each
what about cloister tho? the shells open and we see its body.
@hktimmy6537 it's still not a full reveal and still technically, wobuffets tail is fully visible
The items in Pokeballs makes sense because in PLA you only have satchels with limited item space and requires you to either store items or get upgrades
But at the same time it doesn't make sense, because in Legends Arceus Professor Laventon says that Pokémon have the natural ability to shrink themselves down to tiny sizes, so it's not the Poké Ball that makes them small.
@@ShayTheValiant glad you said it!
@@ShayTheValiant Maybe that info is outdated and incorrect though, considering it's the first time it's been said in the series and also happens to have been said hundreds of years before the other games.
@@ShayTheValiant Kind of make this even more plausible. Professor Laventon noticed this in the past, where Pokéball were first invented. It would make sense with all the canonical Pokémon researches that someone, somewhere found a way to artificially replicate a Pokémon's natural ability to shrink and apply this to items with modern Pokéballs as technology was advancing fast and it became more and more difficult to transport everything efficiently.
Personally I don't really like the idea as this new "type" of Pokéball would just be the Capsule Corp's capsules from Dragon Ball (although those can canonically transport fully functional houses) but with how advanced their researches became it would make sense that this exist in the Pokémon universe.
Imagine grabbing that item ball by mistake instead of sending out a Pokémon 😂
You are challenged by Fisherman Bob!
“Go, Raichu! (Grabs and throws ball)
(Good Rod pops out of item ball)
“Uh…”
“Is…Is this a bribe? You’re offering me this to let you go?”
“…If I say yes, will you stop wasting my time by making me do a battle I never wanted or asked for?”
“(Looks over fishing pole) Works for me!”
“Okay, cool!”
Got away safely!
You can also Store items in the PC so storing them in a pokeball makes sense!
Lol I wanted to say this.
Problem with the blob theory:
Cloyster exists
95 % of the videos on this channel are worthles! Including this one!
To add onto the Galarian bird thing, something is interesting. With a clear past and future theme from the professors and legendaries, it would make sense to consider the Galarian birds as teasers due to Articuno looking futuristic and Zapdos looking prehistoric.
Moltres's involvement as a teaser is also present, but that's only the case if the recent wave of leaks is to be believed. (which they more than likely are, but still, don't want to spread the leaks to those who don't want them)
now im thinking on a thrid dragon like legend to embody present
@@enderborn6860 Don't read this comment if you are avoiding spoilers:
The leakers say there is no 3rd legendary, might still be one in dlc.
The last theory is actually true, since in Gen 1 there's actually an NPC that talks about an Item Ball when referring to an overworld item near them on the screen.
I don’t know about it being true; since Pokémon shrink to fit a bit, a ball doesn’t shrink the Pokémon to make it fit the ball (canon from PLA).
I think item ball from the very early gens was just an easy way to reference an item on the overworld. If they’d have said ‘see that potion over there?’ you’d have been like ‘uh, no. I see a ball.’
@@CallMe_Ohio That is true, but I don't know how reliable Laventon's info is. It could be outdated science, considering the time period. Pokémon could've evolved (Darwinian-wise) to not need that ability, or it could be untrue, even.
@@Lokear that’s true, I feel like since he’s considered the expert it’s at least true in his time frame - they’d know if it was the pokeball or not, as they’d have to at least implement the feature in the ball & could test by removing components.
Darwinian evolution is interesting when you come to Pokémon too since it contradicts it so much haha
They can shrink the pokeball they can shrink an item js
@@davidsmith5405 they can fly a Boeing they can fly a lawnmower. Js
I used to think that Wobuffet was related to Unown. Later I wondered if there was a link to Mimikyu.
Dude, did you also forget the Other glaring issue with the Legendary Birds? Namely that their names aren't actually in Spanish, but English.... Freezer, Thunder, and Booster... with Thunder not to be confused with Jolteon (Thunders).
And if you read the pokedex entry of galarian birds, and change the names to japanesse name, it make sense.
Ok but Articuno Zapdos and Moltres in the Galatians form are completely different, and they got their names because they possess similar traits to the original kanto trio
The white hand ghost is a Pokemon that is always following behind you forever behind you, unable to be seen by you but you can always feel it's present behind you.
I heard a crazy rumor that the "Ghost Hand" was actually Master Hand choosing the trainer to participate. 🤭
@@TheOnlyTreasureGuy Or maybe it was Crazy Hand.
With the last theory about items coming in PokeBalls even makes more sense now that Legends Arceus is the first game where we need to buy extra slots for items in our adventure bags. Since PokeBalls are hand made in the game it'd be almost impossible to get that amount of items mass produced in the time period of Legends Arceus.
I REALLY really don’t like the idea that the Galarian birds were the “originals”. I’ve said this before on your channel I’m sure, but I’m pretty certain that it was directly called out either in the game or somewhere canonical that they are NOT related to the original birds; they were just named after them due to the people seeing a resemblance. I don’t think that there’s any reason to suggest that all regional forms must have an “original” version - its more likely convergent (or divergent, I forget which one is which) evolution, which is the real-world name for when two species that seem very similar evolve totally separate from one another but at the same time (roughly). I’m sure it’s fun to try and look and find out which one was “first” but that’s not always how evolution works.
I agree with this, and the likelihood of Scarlet and Violet introducing more of these Convergent Pokémon Species make it seem even more like those birds were added to get people used to this new variant of Pokémon...
I could’ve sworn that somewhere in one of the games it said the bike and/or the fishing rod was foldable
They are indeed! It’s in quite a few of them actually, and I think FRLG the bike seller actually says that when he gives you one.
Or maybe the bags have a similar property to pokéballs and can fit almost anything in there
This used to be my theory too!
So I’m pretty sure legends arceus expressly says that the Pokémon itself is what’s shrinking. Poke balls are just kind of a trigger for their inclination to shrink. While I understand it’s pretty nonsensical the ball itself has almost nothing to do with shrinking the Pokémon and everything to do with keeping the Pokémon INSIDE after it shrunk.
The first theory doesn’t make a bunch of sense. Because that means the Pokémon can also choose its evolutions freely and also you forget that the evolution of shellder specifically looks like ghastly. Also that the “blob” has only one eye in wobuffets baby evolution. I feel like that’s a VERY broad stretch to say the least.
The Galatians bird part had me scratching my head and I say that as someone reads science papers for fun. While you aren’t all together wrong galatian Linoone and zigzagoom also exist and I’m absolutely certain they are not migratory and they also are said to be the originals of their kind. So I can’t say I put too much weight on the idea. Not to mention there is a giant tree SPECIFICALLY for them in galar and they don’t exactly seem like the kind of birds to mate which is normally why that sort of thing would exist which leads me to believe they spend a lot of time there for very different reasons that makes me feel it’s unlikely they spend a whole bunch of time in many other places. (Not to mention america is huge which is probably why the Canadian goose spends so much time there but the Iberian peninsula… isn’t, really.)
Different parts of the legendary bird trio theory falls apart under scrutiny. There’s the fact that the Japanese names of the birds have no Spanish motif to them, and the dex entry can’t really be used as evidence since it’s from crystal and is talking about the Kantonian form. The dex entry does mean that Kantonian Moltres would also be found in a region based on the Philippine Islands or Australia though, so that’s neat.
I feel like we all know those pokéballs are getting stored somewhere "outside" of your bag
I’ve always subscribed to wobbuffet being maybe a pre-evo rework or related to girafarig in some way. What are the odds that two unrelated Pokémon would both have two black faces as tails in the SAME generation. Especially because gen 2 only had 100 new Pokémon. Wasn’t someone at GF able to see the similarities because myself as a 6 year old did 😅
Item ball is just a broken pokeball with an item inside. The “groundbreaking tech” is that pokemon actually shrink, it is canon in PLA at least. So the balls are literally to store them. Yes it doesn’t explain how they all get into a PC but again it could be just a shorthand for a porygon prime same second delivery service.
I love these kinds of videos! They are so interesting! 😁
Cant forget about Mimikyu can link to your black blob theory to as well Hoops! I’ve always enjoyed your content you’re definitely one of my faves
mimikyu colud be an especially mutated form of pokeblob, mutated enough to become a horror.
'Surely we will know more by the time this video comes out' that stings lol. Great vid
*Spider Sense tingling*
>New HoopsandHipHop video 6 minutes ago
for the first part you could add gastly and voltorb
Well... Maybe not Gastly since it's just a ghost like something died to become it. But... Voltorb maybe since it's more enigmatic than Gastly in nature.
Gastly is when the blob dies.
*Puts too many items in pokeball. Creates black hole. World ends.*
The fact that in the wobbufett theory all of the adapted wobbufetts are two stage pokemon makes it all the more suspicious
Another theories episode Let's goo!!!
i always assumed the pokemon world had a capsule thing (like from dragon ball) going with its items.
The first theory you covered made me think of Jynx as well!
Also, I like your angle on the migratory Legendary Birds! It's in the same spirit as SV's supposed take on evolution. I get the impression they're going to revise their Evolution concept, de facto metamorphosis, hence the ancient and future forms, as well Convergent species. Should be fun to see what they came up with!
The black blob theory is actually really good!! Also, I love the addition of Unown to this theory!
What if the “Black Blobs” are actually just the unknown and these Pokémon are close evolutionary relatives to the unknown?
Shoutout to Lockstin
If there is ever gonna be a Germany region and there will be regional Deino, Zweilous and Hydreigon then the theory about Legendary Birds might be true
I think that if we got some Urshifu new forms it would be cool. One could be based on the Roman Empire ( Fighting/Steel) and the other could be based on the rock pillars in England (Fighting/Rock.)
articuno, zapdos, and moltres are only named with references to spanish numbers in the english translation. There's no connection in the original japanese
An addition to the black blob theory is the fact that Arceus's original design was a Black blob.
To be fair, they're often described as a folding bike and a collapsible fishing rod
First rule of the Item Ball: We don’t talk about the Item Ball. Second rule of the Item Ball: We don’t talk about the Item Ball!
okay but that birds theory is actually perfect!
Hey, I'm subscribed to you!
I’ve always disliked that theory. The original Japanese names have no Spanish reference. Plus divergent and convergent evolution are a thing - they could be totally different species who evolved totally separetely, and just named similarly since humans saw similarities.
To add onto the wyanot theory what if they are just unknown that became something like shellder tangela seeing as they have hidden power
13:59 yeah, now we just need Bulma to prove it with her CC Corp Capsule storage.
Me: GO muddy
Oppenent: a fishing rod?
Me:WAIT WHAT
Bro your add was so good I subed hoooow
I can back up the “secret Pokéball” theory with some very critical evidence: PCs in the earlier Pokémon games. You could store items in them. The PCs could take the digitized data of a Pokémon and store it until later… but you can also store items in them in certain games. And you could put an infinite amount of items in there, therefore they aren’t being kept in a little stash hiding under the PC. They are being digitized too, like Pokémon.
My friend came up with the terrible theory that there’s a secret underground organization that works for arceus that puts eggs in the daycare for your Pokémon because Pokémon is a kid-friendly video game. Neither of us believes it, but it’s fun to think about.
alright that bird trio theory just changed my whole life
Trainers fit so much stuff in their bags like with theory and one box that turns it all into code like with pokemon boxes
Maybe this “black blob” is a parasite and attaches itself to: grass, water, and a punching bag, while also possibly attaching itself to a giraffe thus becoming Girafarig?
For the black blob….it would be nice if they came up with a pokemon that can evolve into them depending on different methods
Theory 3: kind of like the capsules of Capsule Corp. from the Dragon Ball franchise
The Legendary Birds being from Paldea theory falls apart really quickly when you consider the fact Articuno's name in the japan is Freezer.
OooOo, nice work as usual 😊
13:53 Ahh Yes Master Balling a Mankey
Then when the shelder bites the slowpoke, the blob invades the slowpoke's body as its most advanced type of puppet.
Your Golarian Bird Theory is very convincing, be interesting to see if they're in Violet and Scarlett
It personally stopped being convincing the moment it was stated that the Galarian variants are the original when it's not exactly stated as such in the dex when the dex could also be using the Kantonian variants as the original forms as it makes more literal sense due to typing while the Galarian variants could be completely different Pokemon only named that due to similarities in appearance and having those Kantonian forms already in the minds of those who named the Galarian ones.
So the translators for Red and Green were like "Listen, I know these birds have completely separate japanese names... BUT - hear me out - what if we connect them with a theme? Here, we'll adapt the elemental names they have in the original and slap the spanish words for one, two and three at the end. You know, in case they make a region based on Spain in around 25 years."
Heheh... If you can fit a fridge in a pokéball by posessing it with Rotom, a Rotom-posessed bike makes sense too.
Item balls would explain how in the anime they'll stop in the middle of a forrest for lunch and a table will appear out of nowhere.
In my headcannon, item balls project around the item to protect it from the elements.
Crazier theory: Wynaut’s tail is an Unown, and when it evolves, it fuses with another one.
Just like the British museum the Galar museum stole them from Scarlet a violet.
The dex entry implies they were named articuno, zapdos, and moltres due to similarities with Kanto versions. I.e. regional fakes
The item ball also explains why you sometimes need items like the coin case and tm case. If you put each coin in a poke ball it would take up way more space.
Black blob Pokémon as a ghost is ghastly!
The first theory would probably have some merit if it weren’t for the fact that the tail on wynaut only has one eye, other than that the theory isn’t that bad.
In the original anime; I believe it was ash who accidentally caught a rice ball snack instead of a Pokemon with the same capture animation. So yes, you can store items in pokeballs lol
Why can't the backpack be made with the same technology as a Pokéball? It would explain why houses are missing things like beds and bathrooms. The technology is everywhere.
The problem with the item ball theory is that legends arceus actually confirms that shrinking into a tiny size is actually an inherent pokemon ability, not something that a poke ball does itself.
Can Attest to Buyee being pretty nice! I managed to win a bid for the limited edition Pokémon Black Japanese Nintendo DS with Japanese carts of Platinum, Heartgold and Black versions, altogether for less than $110! All still had save files with Pokémon I could salvage to complete future dexes, including long gone distribution events. Black even had some Pokémon from the Dream World mechanic still in the Entralink! I implore any number of people to give a shot at Buyee, if only because the Japanese Pokémon carts would allow the player to Masuda Method in any game Gen 4 onward by getting Pokémon of a different language!
The reason pokemon fit into pokeballs is bc pokemon have the ability to change sizes. Like they said in PLA and you can see in SV. The items would have to also have the ability to shrink if they were in balls bc the ball is not what gives the ability to shrink. They are just the catalyst for the shrinking that the mon can already do. Don't know if items would have the size change deposition to them. However if the companies that make the items (and balls) they could make the items with them he ability to shrink I guess. Doesn't explain the bike, 3 fishing rods and any other large item bc they aren't all made by the company who makes the pokeballs. Unless there was some sort of standard technology forced into every consumer item to allow for size change
* Casually throws a stone across all of France *
Mimmykyu is another Pokémon that conceals it’s true form specifically because it’s stated people can’t comprehend it.
To add to the bird trio theory, scarlet and violet are based of off past and future, zapdos looks more bulky, kinda looks like he’d be from the stoneage, moltres is a dark type, could be the dark ages, while articuno has its visor and psychic type, very futuristic
Due to the matter of how they tend to hint at the next gen, it has been weird to me that legendary pokemon gain regional forms, but if these 3 were a hint to the next generations of Spain, it actually makes perfect sense as well, the galatians birds have been a hint all this time
As a Canadian I did not know that about Canadian geese and I'm glad I do
I think the black blob was a common ancestor for all the aforementioned Pokémon.
Maybe the tail has fake eye spots to trick predators coming from behind
I like to think in my head that Red completes the Pokédex before the playable character does in every game and only Professor Oak knows. They let the Pokémon Professor of that region get the glory. We know Red’s got the same obsession with Pokémon as Professor Oak and has the same dream of recording the detailed information of every single species of Pokémon there is.
Legendaries are all open too, because of Ultra Wormholes. So only single mythicals are out of his reach.
To me, the Galar bird dex entries are saying that their names comes from superficial similarities to the Kanto birds, not that those traits are the original origin of the names. And Pokemon themselves are the reason Pokeballs work, they once put a Primape into a glasses case
So about that blob: it has eyes and is completely black, and in the 1997 Gold demo there was a Pokémon called Gemini, which were kinda two ghosts or so, completely black and looked like floating orbs, they could maybe be that Pokémon. And Girafarig has also that blob with a big grin as his tail.
I'd really like it if Gemini would have become an official Pokémon, so we could evolve it with evolution stones to Tangela, Shellder and so on, or if it would have been like Castform, so it adapts the type and becomes the respective Pokémon depending on the area around it.
The goose isn’t called the Canadian goose. It’s called the Canada goose.
Pokémon have the ability to shrink
To add to the pokeball theory. Voltorb, foogus over world sprites and why they evolved to look like modern day pokeballs(even their shiny forms).
I have one: pokeballs are extremely biodegradable. Otherwise the pokeballs that pokemon break out of would litter the entire world. They'd be everywhere like cigarette butts but even more common.
My Pokemon Theory is that all Pokemon are like the Transformers they came to earth and made copies of animals, plants, and even every day items. They are just upgraded versions.
The "unknown Pokemon" could also be Magnezone if you squint.
Don't forget that in the anime they actually caught a f****** rice ball while trying to catch a primape
I always thought that’s how it work in the games on the game boy and Ds because when you would go to get on your bike the animation almost seemed like it came out of a pokeball
