    I have one problem about your assumption that Ash doesn't have the strength of a demigod and that's the fact that in Sun&Moon, for a portion of the game, Lillie carries around a pokemon that weighs _999.9kg without using a pokeball!_ If a little girl can lift what's basically a tiny _neutron star_, surely ash can lift the god of the land.

      I like to imagine that after scientists literally found the secret of quantum entanglement and uncovered and mastered the powers of physics they just got bored and handed them to little kids to see what the fuck they'd do with them lmao. That also brings the possibility that Pokemon are just genetically altered organisms made by humans. I mean I know some Pokemon are canonically "synthetic" but come on as wild as the Pokemon universe may be it may all just be really advanced physics in the end.

  • @bonetower
    @bonetower Před 6 lety +56

    Sooo I should probably point out that near the end of Pokemon XY/Z (anime -which is considered a separate 'dimension' with slightly more lax 'rules' than the games) it's stated in the Japanese version that the pokeballs work by 'Digitization' of a living being and maintaining it in a simulation within the pokeball itself. Though i prefer this much better.

  • @RokuroCarisu
    @RokuroCarisu Před 7 lety +341

    Poké Balls are only the second most advanced technology in the Pokémon World.
    Number one (and even more terrifing) was the creation of Porygon; using the Pokémon Storage System in reverse to turn a primitive 3D model into a physical lifeform, complete with it retaining the abilities it had inside a virtual envoirment - aka. bringing a video game character to life and somehow allowing it to continue working by video game physics in the real world!

    • @RokuroCarisu
      @RokuroCarisu Před 7 lety +33

      Chaotix Fox The amazing thing about Porygon is that its body consists of variable matter. It can alter its shape, color and type at will. And unlike Ditto, Porygon is not an organic lifeform that just mimics other things, but it can actually transmutate itself into any organic or anorganic matter.
      Now image Porygon had been programmed with the ability to reprogram not only itself, but also its virtual envoirment, before it was transfered into the physical world.

  • @crayder1100
    @crayder1100 Před 7 lety +153

    This actually makes sense, and it goes together with most of the Pokemon history.
    Like Mewtwo making copies of pokemon for example, this explains that. It's just his version of a pokeball except it's much safer since it doesn't physically destroy the original pokemon.
    So technically, Mewtwo was a good guy the entire time!

    I wonder about one thing in the pokemon world (amongst many others):
    The Pokeballs did not exist "forever", however pokemon as humans knew them did.
    Pokemon means something like "Pocket Monster", right? But they can only be "Pocket" Monsters if you have pokeballs, or the idea of them; how did the people of pokemon world call those creatures before the invention of those balls?

Luxury murderballs when you are fancy. Repeat murderballs if you have a fetish, Fast murderballs if you have a runner. There are sport murderballs, even though bugs are creepy. Dusk murderballs when YOU want to be creepy. Timer murderballs for masochists, Nest murderballs for babies. Heal murderballs for instant slavery.
      There are many murderballs, best for you, or a situation.

      The same way it works on Ben 10
      They introduce a stimulant to the [Pokemon] that places it in a Worst Case Scenario state (like having to live in a war torn environment) for a few centuries.
      The end result is a [Pokemon] adapted to said war torn environment, giving it a significantly greater and more powerful combative body.
      The end result (in this case) is a Mega Evolution.

  • @Deedeedee137
    @Deedeedee137 Před 6 lety +3

    Small, really nitpicky correction, but I work in particle physics so it bothers me. At 9:56 when you show the hydrogen atom, you have it being made up of 4 quarks, when a proton actually consists of only 3 quarks, two up quarks and a down quark. There are actually no objects that consist of 4 quarks. Only objects of a quark and an anti quark, or three quarks, or, very recently discovered, 5 quarks, can exist. This is due to the way that the strong force couples to quarks and to a peculiar behavior that it exhibits called color confinement, which requires all objects with color charge to exist as a "colorless object", meaning that a quark can be paired with a an anti quark with the same color charge, canceling out and making a "black" object , or three quarks, one with each color charge, can be paired to make an object that is "white" object. Keep in mind that non of these things are actually colored. Anyway. Otherwise fantastic video and fantastic work in general

  • @adrianleez
    @adrianleez Před 6 lety +15

    you can observe what he says toward the end of season 1 or within season 2 of the early *Pokęmon* cartoon/anime. I think it was *Muk* professor Oak and Ash. Oak tells Ash about the light/beams being imporant and *very briefly* explains how and why its a TRANSFER rather than a storage from the Pøke ball.so it's good to know from Austins explaination. The show provides a visual, with a brief explanation. Just very very slow... and apparently a Massive Anime collection, to seek that out (from show)

      Actually that can be done in theory. if an object shrinks it usually means it becomes denser. atoms don't necessarily have to be lost or gained meaning the pokeball would weigh about the same. but that begs another question. if trainers are only allowed to carry 6 pokemon at a time (actual canon info) then what's the point of shrinking? wouldn't they all fit around the waist at their normal size?

    • @RunicSigils
      @RunicSigils Před 7 lety +12

      He pretty much did as he explained his reasoning for why some were harder to catch which goes into it.
      He said the more rare a Pokémon the harder it is to catch because copying their exact data takes longer since there aren't many references already in the system (which makes complete sense) and this works perfectly well with the fact that CritCap chance is partially based on how many species you have in the Dex.
      In other words, following the above reasonable logic, because you've already caught so many species, your specific account in the PC system (not just a central database even, but a local one) has much more data readily available, thus possibly making it much easier to analyze the data of new things you're trying to catch.
      Also a CritCap can't happen to ANY Pokémon. Depending upon the catch rate of the Pokémon, whether or not you're lowering the HP of and/or statusing the target and with what status as well as what type of ball and any factors like time, gender, etc. a ball might take into account, the base catch rate is sometimes too low for there to be a CritCap chance.
      You'll never CritCap a full HP Mewtwo (and several other legends) into a Poké Ball without putting them to Sleep/Freezing them, for example (and even then the chance is less than 1 in 250). Chance is too low without the status so there is no CritCap chance even at max Dex if it isn't.

    • @Lisa-pn3fm
      @Lisa-pn3fm Před 7 lety +6

      Zixzio Critical captures (which is the official name of the mechanic you're referring to) are more likely to happen the more you fill up the Pokedex. So what is likely happening is that the quantum computer thingy becomes accustomed to the general structure of a Pokemon and can more easily analyze and contain it... or something, I could be explaining that entirely the wrong way, but you get the point...

    Okay so I saw this video when I was around 12 or 13, and, after a tweenage existential crisis, I came to the conclusion that breaking down a mind and reconstructing it is no different then simply passing through time. If you think about it, you are constantly becoming a new person with each moment that passes. In fact, you can even say that with each moment the present you dies and a future you is born. Therefore the stasis of death is really just a pause in the loop as you die and do not become your future self. It’s hard to explain my thought process here, but just know that this video drove a child insane.

  • @EvilParagon2
    @EvilParagon2 Před 7 lety +29

    I always just thought the pokeballs just converted matter into energy.
    Then maybe uses binary to spit the code back out correctly.
    This allows pokeballs to be as light as the ball itself. The problem is the fact that pokemon are visible when interacting with the pokeball. They glow red when returning, white when leaving and blue when being ejected from the ball. If they were truly being converted into an energy code, any loss in energy such as visible light would destroy parts of the saved code.

    • @EvilParagon2
      @EvilParagon2 Před 7 lety +11

      There's also the idea that because pokeballs can only be used for one pokemon, that the ball is synced to a pocket dimension the pokemon stores all of its power in. I know using the anime is taboo but come on. Anyway we see a Hippopotas fill Team Rocket's balloon with sand and the balloon starts to sink which would imply creating matter, in another scene we see Squirtle fill an entire room, that he is standing in, with water. How did all of that fit inside? It didn't! Either one of two things happened:
      A) Pokemon are infinite energy creating monsters, the more boring option that just sounds convenient and breaks our laws of physics or
      B) Pokemon have the power to access a pocket dimension specific to them that contains energy that replenishes itself over time, as they are outside of our universe, they don't have to obey our laws of physics. Replenishing energy in the pocket dimension that through the portal that is a pokemon is a perfectly valid way to add energy to our universe without breaking any physics laws regarding the creation of energy/matter. Pokemon can turn energy into matter.
      I like option B of course, and this means that Pokeballs could sync with a pokemon's dimension and become that portal, being able to send the pokemon there and back with no harm done to the pokemon. This also means that the pocket dimension can only house energy as matter from the pokemon is shown not to be able to enter if this theory is right.
      Also this means that the glow from pokeballs makes sense. The light could be coming from the portal the pokeball has open.
      AND this could also explain evolutions.
      Pokemon don't need to eat it seems. They CAN eat but they don't need to. It seems their way of growing involves gaining experience. If we say experience is the power of their dimension and how much energy it produces, an evolution could just be the dimension experiencing an overload of energy and the pokemon is filled with energy which it uses to instantly grow, it also glows during this time because the pocket dimension is visible.

      Saying things like "Hey man, the sky is blue because it's blue" is really a waste of mental energy. The sky is blue for a reason, just as the way the game shows pokeballs, they are like that for a reason.
      Now could I be wrong? Absolutely. Theories are just theories, but I had fun and I will enjoy the days up until Nintendo eventually proves me wrong or right.

    Dear ShoddyCast, your use of quantum mechanic (QM), particularly quantum entanglement (QE), is lacking in not only practicality but also in a fundamental understanding of the probabilistic nature of the quantum realm. When you collapse the wave function (observe the particle) of an entangled pair, you force the particles to produce an observable result on both ends, instantaneously, regardless of distance between the pair.
    This "spooky action at a distance" seems to violate special relativity until one accepts the fact that you have no control over what the wave function collapses into. In other words, you can't send information through QE. Instead one can only conclude that there is a direct correlation between the observations made of the two, previously entangled, particles. Thus teleportation is impossible as you have no way of controlling what a particle can collapse into.
    Besides this, the computational capabilities needed to analyze, compress, "entangle" and send a rattata too where ever in seconds wont exist for another century or so (ignoring quantum computing). And even if it did, it is much more realistic to conclude that with such computational capacity, people in the pokemon realm live in a matrix-esque virtual reality where pokemon exist and are as conscious and real as the computer generated stimuli fed into Ashe's brain.
    TL;DR:
    To quote Richard Feynman, "If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't understand quantum mechanics."

    The other idea is that entire world of pokemon is a giant simulation, meaning, nothing has mass and everything is actually digital, which would make sense considering in the series, clearly dangerous things that happen do not generally kill people, like being flamed by a Charizard. This would also allow for all the technology and powers that exist in that universe, including pokemon themselves. This would mean that the pokeball breaks down the sent information that makes up the visual representation of the pokemon with an algorithm for them breaking out.
    Basically, complex VR which is complex enough for people to live their lives in a world that has very different rules, because everything is digital.
    Your brain is a jar. And we can in fact do this in the future considering pretty much anything can be broken down into information, likely more complex than just zeros and ones, but still a similar idea.
    That or exactly what the theory said. This is why transporters are a no-no for many. Breaking down something into parts means death. Basically, you constantly create a clone over and over, but the original is always gone which the original is the you.

We'll either be left with floating galaxies separated from each other by millions of light years, or if dark matter is present in the space between galaxies, we could perhaps experience a big crunch, which could lead to another big bang.

    There's one main problem. Recreating the original or last saved pokemon would cause it to have amnesia, as the electrical patterns that the brain makes aren't related to matter placement and amounts (for a better explanation, see Film Theory Deadpool). This is directly contradicted by the friendship stat and the moves a Pokémon learns. If a Pokémon forgot everything, it wouldn't know moves it didn't naturally have and wouldn't have any idea who you, the trainer, are.
    My theory is that the pokemon is converted to data, similar to your theory but with less quantum physics. This data is altered automatically by the pokeball under certain criteria. Once captured, the code that makes up the pokemon is made to trust its trainer. This is why a Pokémon will listen to a new trainer when traded. When you teach a Pokémon a TM, you aren't just slapping a DVD on its head, you're getting the pokeball to read the disc and imprint the move on the pokemon inside. This is how pokemon are stored in a PC, how pokeballs don't change weight, and how you can have special balls do certain things, it's all just the transfer and editing of living data.

    • @dudep504
      @dudep504 Před 4 lety

      Actually then how exactly do pokeball do it then? The converting into data stuff, and in my opinion that electricity pattern that form the memory can be copied since if im not wrong electricity is plasma and plasma is a state of matter so the pokeball just have to copy those certain electricity pattern and the insert some electricity to the copy with that pattern and voila, also also in the film theory video it is said that logan (its logan right?) Loses its memory because his brain regenerates while in a pokeball the brain is recreated along with the electricity pattern. But hey, thats just my opinion, a GAAAAME OPINION, yes i watch GT and FT too, hi theorist

      eh the pokeball has been around for centuries in the pokemon universe.

      Because a few of them seem to be able to override their end of the pokeball network and escape.
      they often show other pokemon sitting in their balls or wherever they are watching the outside of the ball like a TV. Squirtle is often seen drinking some sort of "totally not Alcohol" while chatting with the other pokemon.
      it's also been shown in a few episodes that all the pokemon can escape their balls when they want, most just don't care to.

    When I was a child I thought the pokaballs basically acted like a teleporter, it doesn't hold the Pokémon, it kind of sends it to it's own living space till the ball is opened, and when catching a Pokémon at first it is kind of registering that Pokémon in a large centurial location where possibly millions of Pokémon registering's are happing at a time, but if they move to much the ball fails and it's fail safe happens, release the creature and kicks them out of the ball so it doesn't die by being crushed to death, and when sending them in battle, the Pokémon gains a door way out of the space for living then and kicks your Pokémon out of the space, and once done, return home by a recall till the cycle happens again.

    Since we are talking about the science of things, I would like to point out that we, as humans, by definition, are animals also, so I feel that what was said there should have been worded differently. The definition of an animal is "a living organism that feeds on organic matter, typically having specialized sense organs and nervous system and able to respond rapidly to stimuli." I hear some people try to make a distinction between humans and animals, but the fact of the matter is that we belong to the animal kingdom also. That is not to say that we are exactly the same as other creatures. All species are different from one another and none are exactly like the other. However, speaking as if humans are some how another type of being in a separate kingdom as if we are plants or something should not be done.

      Actually, humans and animals are different. No animal has the ability to create a civilization that can learn and grow within itself. The reason is because humans have, something science can NOT explain. The conscience. It's like gravity. Always there, cannot be touched nor seen, but is always there. The conscience teaches us to think for ourselves, think of ideas and grow as a civilization. And while animals do understand how to walk, eat, and build ant hills, and beaver dams, those are instincts. The birds 2000 years ago builder the same looking nests as they do today however, humans have built sturdier housing, with better materials, I mean, humans have designed machines that can fly a person through the air and into outer space. While, birds still dig up worms and build little nests. Do you see the difference? Humans have a conscience. Animals have instincts.
