    I think with Suicune and it's paradox form brings up the idea of that Hoho much like the phoenix always brings back the same idea of its guardians but uses a different base pokemon. So for all we know theres 3 prehistoric versions of those pokemon and the newest iteration of them is a Hoho essence infused Spearo and 3 eeveelutions as the newest guardians.

  • @Charizmon
    @Charizmon Před rokem +104

    (11:00) That is a good theory, but I think the real reason to why Violet sold more is because people preferred Miraidon over Koraidon, Ceruledge over Armarouge, and/or Turo over Sada and also because before the games released, many people didn’t look at the new Pokémon so they didn’t know about the Paradox forms yet. I also think that people though maybe it was time to choose the second game instead of the first. Example: People normally prefer Red over Blue, and you normally say Pokemon Red and Blue, not Blue and Red.

      I 100% agree with this. I tend to prefer the first of the two games when mentioning them together like red over blue, ruby over sapphire, etc so that’s why I prefer scarlet. However, I do enjoy shiny hunting and riding around in Violet better because of the design of Miraidon.

      For me, it was all that, plus the fact that I'd much rather be forced into wearing purple clothes over scarlet/orange. XD
      Also, the biggest deciding factor for me when choosing which game to start with is the version exclusive Pokemon that I can use on my in-game playthrough team, and the majority of the Paradox Pokemon are locked to the post-game (as the only one that's feasible to use is the ex-Titan Great Tusk/Iron Treads), so for me, the designs of the Paradox Pokemon didn't really matter as much.

  • @roofwallplays7284

    5:09 I honestly think that the reason we know so little about what the beasts were beforehand was because of how much of a ruckus it would cause if there are ancient pokemon that still exist(fossils needed to be revived) and when they died Ho-oh just changed them to something more accustomed to the modern world

  • @mihaelabarrett5680

    5:02 My theory is that the "paradox" is just suicine sent to the past (Like the main character in hisui that was pulled from modern day sinnoh) and that suicune was in a loop of the past untill the machine that pulled the other paradoxes from the past, out pulled the suicune out of the loop and it aged in the loop so it looked like more dino like from age. That is my answer. 8:07

    The one about Arven saying:
    “You really ruined my whole childhood, you know” to Terapagos fits because Terapagos is the Disk Pokemon that influenced Sada/Turo to want to bring Ancient/Future Pokemon to the present day. Them researching this and not spending time with Arven is what ruined his childhood, though the one who made them think that way was Terapagos.

    And the time machine is in fact some sort of a inter timeline gateway.

    I was continuing the video and saw a meme about the past Paradox forms that makes fun of the issue with Walking Wake.

    That theory on the Violet game having more copies was somewhat correct in my case. Was having trouble deciding, even after the version exclusive stuff was announced.

The Paradox Suicune could have been like an ancient Water Dragon Type Vaporeon that was experimented on by humans, tuning it into what we now know as Walking Wake and the ancient Vaporeon lost to history some may even say that the Water Dragon Type Vaporeon was just a myth made up people

    Just for reference, the Eeveelutions missing from Penny's team are Espeon and Glaceon. I've seen a theory as to why those two that points out that Penny doesn't really feel like a "walk in the sun" type of person and leaf stones are just easier to get hold of.

    • @RabblesTheBinx
      @RabblesTheBinx Před rokem +8

      My theory is that they're the two most superfluous Eeveelutions. Glaceon is basically worthless, as Vaporeon can use Ice-type moves and is better in every way, and Espeon is only really worthwhile for Poison-types, since Sylveon's there to counter Fighting-types, plus it has more utility because it covers Dark _and_ is a hard counter to Dragon. Granted, it gives her team a glaring weakness to Poison, but there isn't really a better mon to switch out, since having Leafeon for backup coverage is actually super-useful on a Veevee team, as it can cover Water/Ground-types that wall Jolteon or Water/Rock types that are neutral to Vaporeon. She probably _has_ an Espeon and a Glaceon. She definitely has at least one unevolved Eevee (you can see it with her in some of Dendra's classes). She just doesn't use them in battle because there's a team limit of 6.

      I don't if it would be balanced but if I designed her team I would give her og 3 Eeveelutions, Sylveon and then she would have a gen 2 Eeveelution and a gen 4 Eeveelution but they will differ from Scarlet to Violet.

If Ho-Oh is super old, it could have seen wild Walking Wakes before.
