"paras is a weak and forgotten Pokemon" "Arceus Legends: "Oh they are forgettable are they? What if we made the SUPER aggro and annoying as all heck?"
Yep now we all now paras and parasect exist and we want him to be forgotten, that stupid aggro mushroom
I had one on my team they aren’t that bad
yea tho
@@theworstgamer754 they have 2 4x weaknesses
I use them for grinding friendship or moves for the Pokédex (I already have a shiny charm but I want everything to be perfect)
Mikey: says electrode shouldn't get a regional variant.
Hisuian Voltorb: Allow me to introduce myself.
Hisuian Electrode owns and I'm glad it exists.
Lol
Mikey: Parasect absolutely needs a permanent evolution to become relavent again
Gamefreak: ORRR we could make it the biggest pest ever with wallhacks in the newest game :)
Yeah I saw the update in Pokemon go before this video ......
Still not a fantastic Pokemon to recreate .....but an easy one given its generic base ,
The idea of a "haunted pokeball" is cool but in practice is goofy
24:23: "Regional dragonite would be the first pseudo legendary to get a regional variant"
hisuian goodra: hold my shell
I love how gamefreak didn't buff paras, they just made it unessicarily aggressive LOL.
Like YOURE A TINY CRAB why do you NEED TO TRY TO KILL ME
"Forget me, huh? Not after I *brutally rip you apart*, you won't!"
It might be like Honey Badgers, where they’re super aggressive because it scares other things. Also, they learn spore, so if they can hit that, it’s basically game over for the opponent.
They basically said "But what if it was really angry?"
They were mad about being ignored
Checklist after PLA and SV
- Jigglypuff also got Scream Tail (Past Paradox)
- Parasect's appearances in PLA (no later gen treatment)
- While Venomoth did not get any later-gen treatment in SV, it has never been in a regional Pokedex outside of Kanto, Johto, and their remakes until Paldea
- Dugtrio also got Wugtrio (convergent species)
- Primeape got Annihilape (new evolution)
- Arcanine got its Hisuian Form (regional form. Note that only Hisuian Growlithe was revealed before PLA release)
- Tentacruel got Toedscruel (convergent species)
- Magneton also got Sandy Shocks (Past Paradox)
- Electrode got its Hisuian Form (regional form. Many people commented about Hisuian Voltorb because it was revealed a few months after this video was uploaded)
- Scyther also got Kleavor (regional evolution. I consider Kleavor as a regional evolution because the Black Augurite is unobtainable in SV, even though wild Kleavor is catchable in the Indigo Disk)
- Tauros got three Paldean Form Breeds (regional forms)
- Mega Evolution will return in Legends Z-A. Hope that some of the forgotten Pokemon will get Megas in PLZA
He got his grass fire type as well, Scovillain
Paradox mons do not count it brings no one to use jigglypuff
And jigglypuff got the fairy type
@@justinterry2926 he already mentioned about the Jigglypuff line getting the Fairy type
So that leaves: Fearow, Arbok, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Golduck, Victreebel, Dodrio, Dewgong, Cloyster, Hypno, Seaking, Starmie, Ditto (It should stay this way tbh), Omastar, Kabutops, Dragonite, and Mew.
Parasect would be here too but…Legends Arceus definitely saved it from obscurity.
@@TheFawse Not to mention Ogerpon when wearing the Hearthflame Mask.
"You cant have one without the other."
Glalie: gets a mega.
Froslass: cries in forgotten...
While Froslass is my favorite Pokémon, and I'd love for her to get some love, I don't necessarily think it needs special attention. Froslass has an extremely unique typing, being the only ice/ghost type. She's also a gender exclusive evolution (like Vespiquen and Salazzle) to the point I forgot that you could have a female Glalie. Her design concept is interesting, basing it off a mother flipping yokai who traps people in ice. And Froslass was only introduced in Gen 4, after Snorunt and Glalie.
So yeah, love her, but don't necessarily agree.
@@Maria.Annette Just correcting you on the female comparison, Sal and Ves are horrible examples. Froslass is more akin to Gallade than either of those two.
@@Maria.Annette Well, that could be true until you consider that Gardevoir and Gallade are in a similar situation, being Gallade a new Gender-Based evolution of Kirlia, introduced in gen 4, and both Gallade and Gardevoir got Megas. So yeah, Froslass still kinda forgotten.
froslass was still more usefull competetively tho
it was UU in gen seven while mega glalie was pretty bad even in RU
@@Maria.Annette And her pokedex entries are cool and creepy as it should've been since Frosslass is a ghost type.
Mikey: "Man how did Meowth end up with so many goodies?"
Team rocket: Are we a joke to you?
plus, meowth was originally intended to be pikachu's counterpart. that role is filled by eevee now, though.
@@Duexroted Meowth almost had a baby form as well to more closely match Pikachu as you said. Look up Konya pokemon or Meowth pre-evolution to see the adorable thing we almost got. Meowth and Pikachu will always be icons in my eyes
And also because It literally has a GOLDEN coin on its head, thats a slight goodie
Well, technically, Team Rocket IS a Meowth goodie. Plus, Mikey's talking about the main series games.
Pikachu is the Pokémon that appeared in the anime the most, but Meowth is a close second. His first appearance was in the second episode of the anime.
I love how you ended up predicting several things that ended up in Scarlet and Violet.
Yes
Was thinking the same thing.
yeahhh lmao
proof that nintento watches poketubers
Bro srsly omg Xd
This aged pretty well looking back onto this now
>They hate Parasect
PLA Parasect go BRRRRRRRRRR
Yeal like primape having a cool evolution
Tauros and tentacruel
@@steelslide9601 ugly!
@@sanjuro1180 ugly but waaaaay better.
Watching this After Legends Arceus...Well, no one's gonna forget Paris or Parasect anymore! Lol!
Yes Dude ! Those Paras and Parasects are just Nasty !. They blacked out me a couple of times running from alphas. I don't understand why Gamefreak made them so hostile....Even if I stand before the Alpha Snorlax it doesn't do anything at first....😅
that's what I though haha
@@redslime5836 To be fair they are essentially mushroom zombies....every trip out of the village is just a stroll through the undead I guess
I hope you guys realize they’re only there because they were originally a part of the Diamond and Pearl Dex. Nothing to do with them being liked by GAME FREAK. But I agree, those Pokémon are VICIOUS.
@@arkhalislv2222 they know that, its about how hostile they are in pla
MandJTV: Now we arrive at Electrode. This Pokémon should ABSOLUTELY NOT get ANY new forms!
Legends Arkoos: You said something?
I mean we don’t know if Electrode is gonna get a regional variant. Hisuian Voltorb could evolve into something completely different.
@@gymleaderhasan Still it is part of the line. Im just happy it's getting more attention
@@gymleaderhasan it counts for the same reason he said Arcanine doesn’t. Both their first evolutions now have regional variants
@@gymleaderhasan welp at least it looks cooler than the og one… SLIGHTLY
Man bet Mikey feels dumb
"I think a cool idea for a regional variant of prineape would be a calm one, since its know to be so angry it can die"
Proceeds to actually die and evolve because of that
And also it's angrier
I think pokemon were foreshadowing it... They had plans before i guess...
That anilape
@@krrishmaindola my brother in Christ are you the guy who says that musharna was planned 13 years in advance because of some dialog, annihilape is definitely a reference to the pokedex it definitely wasn't planned 6 years in advance
Well, at least there are no longer fighting types in gen one that didn't get a thing
12:23 Primape got an evolution
13:13 Fire Grass now exists
14:02 Tentacruel and tentacool got kind-of new pokemon based on them
18:14 Electrode Hissuian form
20:53 Tauros got like 3 forms
24:22 Goodra won that title
Edit: Im not complaining neither making this video look bad, i just wanted to comment this kind-of retrospective I KNOW it was made before SV and im sure everybody does so just stop
Ok So You Mean Convergent Forms
tentacool did not get a new form but technically they did? convergent evolution is weird. toedscruel's design was based off of tentacruel ig. its hard to word it tho.
Don't forget his comment that new evolutions for old mon only happen with regional varients which got undone with a lot of the mon in both PLA and SV (Example, Usaluna, Wyrdeer, Annialape, DunDunsparce)
@@gashaponcapsule I mean, yeah it’s not actually the same Pokémon. However, the look the same, and for all intents and purposes, it’s just a different name for a regional form. (Idk about how the stats work in relation to the original Pokémon or whatever but the point still stands)
Now the only ones that doesnt have anything are fearow, the nido's venamoth, arbok, dragonite, ditto, hypno, golduck, omastar, kabutops, mew, dewgong dotrio, parasect, seaking, victribel, cloyster and i think thats it
"When was the last time you thought about a Dewgong?!"
Surprisingly frequently. That Dewgong in Pokémon the First Movie, when the Pokémon are crying for Ash, just breaks the somber mood with it's dumbass GOOOOONGGGG and I laugh about it every so often.
Same… the number of times I just randomly say DEWWWW GONGGONG is a lot. 😂🤣😂
There are Dewgong statues near the center in Pokémon Unite. Fun fact!
It and Warren are some of my first choices for water types when designing teams.
Dewgong is one of my favorite pokemon :(
Mike: "Dewgong is so bland, what a boring design, it looks like just a regular animal!"
Mike 5 minutes later: "I love Tauros!"
I hate that competitive stats influence people’s like or hatred of certain Pokémon. I love Seel. I had the McDonalds toy growing up.
"I have never been called mike. It's Mikey or Michael"
-Michael
I thought that too. But didn’t Taurus get miltank? I always thought of them as similar to nidoqueen and nidoking.
DONT U SAY DAT ABOUT MY BOI TAUROS
(Its my second favourite pokemon)
@@benjamincarraher4886 they aren't confirmed to be a counterparts though
I have a disturbing idea for a new Dewgong, either as a new evolution or a variant. How about an Ice/Poison type, based on the idea of a seal surviving an oil spill? Instead of dying, SOMEHOW it thrived, and now lives in oil or industrial waste, instead of water. Plus, there’s meme potential: as the first Pokémon of its type pairing, it will *never* be forgotten again! Just a thought.
me realizing that there isn't an ice/poison type
Pray for Game freak to read this
Of course primape getting so mad it dies gets a ghost type evolution
"When was the last time you thought about a Dewgong?"
Literally yesterday when my brother and I were talking about underrated Pokémon from each region. My shout for Kanto was indeed the loveable Dewgong.
Omg same, I was just thinking about Dewong yesterday
A few days ago while watching Pokémon journeys
Pokemon Yellow which I finished with it on my team a month or two ago.
@@matthewroberts198 It's also a major threat in gen three's battle frontier. Sheer Cold AND Horn Drill is nightmare fuel.
I remember having a Dewgong on my Champion team!
"Dewgong doesn't deserved anything new because its desing its bland and looks like a real animal"
"OMG TAUROS NEEDS SOMETHING"
@@fakhrinasution7547 :O
Tbf, Tauros has a more interesting look than Dewgong, even if it does look like a real animal.
Its so easy to evole it into a narwhal
It should be declared that tauros should evolve into buffolot!
Wasn't Miltank made to be a female counterpart to Tauros? I thought I read that somewhere.
Dude, gamefreak getting rid of mega evolutions was like a parent getting their kid a puppy, letting them have fun with said puppy for a few years, and then suddenly snapping its neck in front of the child.
that took a very dark turn
15:30
Michael: Artists have made flamingo-based Dodrio designs, which could be Flying/Fairy type
Flamigo: *exists*
Game Freak and the Pokemon Company. Gotta love em. 😑😑😑
Look at when he made this video.
@@peterrealar2.067 i think the point was that the flamingo based pokemon we got was basic and fan designs are better than a lot of what we're getting from gamefreak.
@@Dark_Aeon It was more complex than you thought it was. First of all, Flamigo's head resembles a punching glove. Also, its neck is in a knot. The only thing it's missing is the ability to change color due to what they eat.
@@peterrealar2.067It kinda looks like those plastic lawn flamingos
@@jamestomato1744 Yup, SURE DO. It's a combination of flamingo type elements.
Fun fact: Basculegion is the 900th Pokémon to be revealed.
Jesus Christ next gen we’ll be at 1,000.
DAMN Aleady!
Cool
@@aarnosallinen2272 “another johto”? They literally added exactly 100 new ones in gen 2
Who’s that?
i will never forget game freak forgetting about Wilma… R.I.P.
Why hello there Mr. Jackerie
3rd and also who the hell is wilma
Who's Candice???
What is wilma
Haha nice try
well primape got an evolution in annihilape, tentacruel got divergent species in toadscoll and toadscruel, and tauros got 3 regional forms which is are a fighting, fire fighting, and water fighting type.
Ive come from the future to let you guys know that new evolutions have come back. They’re not regional variants either they’re completely new evolutions
But regional evolutions still exist remember clodsire
@@anyconsoleplayer oh yeah definitely I’m glad they gave us both new and regional evolutions
How the hell could Gamefreak not give Dragonite a Gigantimax form reference the giant one from the anime
And a Crystal Onix regional variant
Or even a mega. Hell they gave Metagross and salamence megas and completely ignored Dragonite for some reason
That thing still bothers me
Obviously they didnt think they were gonna add gygantamax 20 years later and hence they should add a reference and stuff
Then why did they put that?
@Mr Monkey I like your counting skills
@Mr Monkey your previous message said 3 good things, but you listed 6 Pokémon. You edited it😉
they pretty much did do a crystal onix reference with mega steelix though
Dewgong should get a fairy type evolution due to people seeing manatees and thinking they were mermaids
and it gets a differnt color to it's lower half as a refrence. XD
Dewmaid sounds so pretty
DEWWWWWWWWWWGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG
@@waffleweirdo1252 XD "dewmaid" it sounds so dumb but i love it.
@@modelomegatyler Mergong would work too.
12:55 “it’s face looks peaceful in death however”
ScarVi: i’m gonna pretend i didn’t see that
I love that they finally gave Primeape some love, especially since Annihilape is based off Primeape’s Sun dex entry saying it can get so angry it can die 😂
18:32 Mikey: There’s not really anywhere for its design to go.
Hisuian Voltorb: Hold my beer.
It's still bland, so what's your point?
@@ratedr7845 it’s something..?
it has no hands tho so it would have to have someone hold its beer anyways lol
@@ratedr7845 this is pokemon that gamefreak forgot about not bland pokemon that got something
@@Mikescool444 nothing good, so, what?
“Electrode should NOT get any new forms”
Hisuian Voltorb: ;)
Probably the best thing that could've happened to Voltorb.
dewgong could have a regional variant that makes it look like a narwhal with a fairy ice type
I really do agree that would be super cool
how about a walrus? or is there one already?
@@spanishsupafly Walrein exists.
Narwhals narwhals swimming in the ocean
Oddly enough. I actually love dewgong as i used on in my playthrough of Heartgold as a kid. Which was and still is my favorite game of all time. So, often... I think about Dewgong often
Idk why people are so surprised about meowth getting so many “goodies” cause of it being Pokémon’s 2nd mascot cause team rocket, as well as the fact everywhere has tons of cats.
Meowth's goodies are pretty low-bar next to something like Charizard, really. Regional forms for a weak Pokémon are hardly on the same platform as Mega Evolutions for a strong one.
Well I’d argue 3rd or 4th mascot, Charuzard is definitely #2 and Greninja might be slightly higher. But still Meowth is iconic
Noone else has realized why its getting so many goodies??
Well here is why
Good explanation to How Did Meowth Get So Many Goodies:
It literally has a GOLDEN coin on its head, thats a slight goodie
@@AnnanKamrans dont think you guys know what we’re talking about if you’re just focused on it’s gold coin just cause the fact it’s a lucky cat inspired pokemon. By “goodies” I’m referring to how he phrased it in the video, aka the regional forms and Gigantamax form. Has nothing to do with the coin.
@:O🍡 meowth is more a mascot than Charizard only cause he’s been in every version of the show charizard has not. Charizard is more 3rd than 2nd, though he is definitely the mascot when comes to starters, even though greninja is always voted most popular in most polls. I’m saying Meowth is more a mascot cause of the fact he’s literally team rockets mascot (least Jesse and Jame’s team) they even use him as the design for their hot air balloon and several robots. Charizard is more the mascot of the regional gimmicks like mega or Gigantamax as the most popular of the gen 1 starters. Least imo.
According to the pokedex, the mega stone reawakened some of its genes, and Mega Aerodactyl is what Aerodactyl ACTUALLY looked like.
so fossil regional variants could just be a way of restoring the fossils to what they actually were like?
you definitely rose a level higher now as per me
so if Aerodactyl is in Legends Arceus, then it will appear in its mega form...
MEGAS CONFIRMED
think of dynamax pokémon walking in the wild areas
@@MariOmor1 Legends Arceus is not taking place in prehistoric times though.
“Regular permanent evolutions don’t happen anymore.” I am so glad this aged poorly
Old Mikey: Primeape needs stuff
Me: just wait til Scarlet and Violet
“When was the last time you thought about a Dewgong?” The last time Goh’s Dewgong appeared in the anime since it’s one of his pokémon with the strongest personalities
Am I supposed to be watching adventures
Have y’all seen Pokémon master journeys?
I think of the Dewgong and its clone from Pokémon: The First Movie
What about gulpin?
3:33 Not only has Arbok appeared SO RARELY since Jessie released hers about 900 episodes ago, but Arbok’s different stomach faces in its sprites technically made them the first regional variants, but that hasn’t been revisited or solidified in canon!
Arbok my beloved
Her Arbok was literally the only "Famous" arbok and even Jesse herself has pretty much forgotten him
Arbok also had its license for its name redone at the same time Weezing did for gen 8 and only Weezing got a new form.
My little cobra :(
SHE RELEASED HER ARBOK?!
15:30 sure, someone’s probably said it, and I doubt it would ever happen, but a dragon type dodrio based off a hydra would be cool. But I don’t think they’d do something like that with the dragon type
Hyrdriegon
And funnily enough, they did make a flamingo
Actually, now that convergent species are a thing, there is a chance they could do something like that. They could be called Hyduo and Hydrio.
I never understood why Dewgong is so overlooked. I absolutely love it’s design. It is one of my fave water types.
YES
Do you happen to be a fan of seals?
dewgong just nothing special spam Stockpile only in battle maison wasting ur time only
Why does everyone overlook that it's an ice/water. That gives it some advantages over some of its weaknesses.
True. Dewgong is so cute. Though the last time I thought of it was when gou caught one back when journeys first came out
"Come on, man I'm a bad guy in a bad mood. This cannot surprise you"
No, no, he's got a point.
Would like to see Australia as an inspiration for a new Pokémon region, could give us new regionals for Arbok, Cloyster, Taurus, Seaking, Starmie, and Dewgong there as those real animals are present. Maybe the flamingo Dodrio although they’re now extinct in Australia
Also we could get a platypus pokemon
Omg i remember this one pokemon i made for an Australian themed region
It was a grass fighting kangaroo who's tail was a flower
First stage, seed tail
Second stage, seedling or sprout or whatever it's called
Third stage, thick stemmed flower tail
Anyway back to the video i go lol
Don't forget the copious amounts of spider pokemon
Or every Spider based Pokemon, that would be a huge chunk of the Pokedex honestly, but still
A region with a heavy focus on poison type bugs and fire types
Dewgong should have a regional variant based off of a leopard seal. Unlike the original Dewgong’s gentle disposition, this regional variant would be much more aggressive, have a dark grey-black colour scheme, and act as a physical attacker. An ice-dark type would suit this Pokemon very nicely because leopard seals are found in cold waters and tend to ambush their prey without warning. Its primary abilities would be thick fat and intimidate, while its hidden ability would be anger point. Otherwise, this could be a brand new Pokemon concept altogether. 🦭
"Primeape can get so angry that it dies"
*evolves into ghost type*
This is proof that ghost types are the spirits of dead Pokémon.
I love that he litterly said "instead of getting angry and dying" because that had me laughing because that's what happened
@@johnhoff2881 And damn if Annihilape isn't fucking awesome.
18:08
I think Hisuien Voltorb is actually a really cool take on the kantonian form
Yeah
it's kind of adorable
I think its a bit goofy, but so is the new growlith. Not gon hate doe
It looks so cute 🥰
I mean it's cute and I get the logic but I personally would have rathered them do a form of like basically any other Pokemon so I just feel like it's a waste of a slot imo.
Dewgong has a little horn. Imagine an evolution inspired in a real life Narwhal with a really long horn akin to a unicorn’s.
Due to the fact that Narwal horns where historically sold as unicorn horns and were thought to have magical properties, you could even argue for a type change to Ice/Fairy. That’s something I’d love to see!
i was thinking the same
That’s actually a narwal’s tooth
@@cbadshew true but thats less fun
@@miniyoshi6157 its actually more fun when you think about it. ITS A GIANT POINTY TOOTH HOW COOL IS THAT
Thats definitely a great idea but ditching the water type? it's so integral to it's identity that it would be weird if it got removed.
22:52 well scarlet and violet have time travelling so they should get stuff there
Paradox Pokémon exist but no fossils
Gen IX update:
Primeape got Annihilape
Diglett, Dugtrio, Tentacool, and Tentacruel got convergent evolutions
Voltorb, Electrode, Growlithe, and Arcanine got Hisuian forms
Tauros got 3 Paldean forms
Magneton got Sandy Shocks
Jigglypuff line got Scream Tail
Scyther got Kleavor
9:05 Another fun fact with Parasect; a Parasect with dry skin technically has a 5x weakness to fire. On top of its normal 4x weakness, dry skin Pokémon take 25% extra damage if hit by a fire type move, so 4 times 1.25 equals 5
You deserve a veterans discount
Doesn't Fluffy add 1.5x damage from fire moves? So if Parasect gets Skill Swapped Fluffy, it can be 6 times weak to fire.
@@Aeistheticism I think it’s double, so it would be an even worse 8x, as long as it’s a special move since fluffy halves damage from physical moves
I just got a crazy idea and likely could break the game. imagine if there's a move that reverse weakness and resistance. So instead of a 8x weakness, it can flip into an 8x resistance.
@@greatbeavers9418 literally "it was super effective" vs "it wasn't very effective"
For Dewgong, the easy answer is to go with a narwhal style evolution. They're designed fairly similar, and Dewgong and Seal already has the start of a horn, so why not?
But the horns not on the front of the face… it doesn’t matter this is ruin Pokémon.
Seel
Or maybe a regional form which looks like a mermaid dewgongs were thought to be mermaids so why not mirror that?
I was going to suggest a mermaid theme but it would be too similar to Primarima (although you could argue she’s more of a siren). I’d re type it as Fairy/Ice, would instantly become a dragon slayer
I think a side-evolution would work better. Seel into either dewgong or something more horn-y. Not a narwhal, but they're game freak, surely they can think of something.
I find it funny how while listening to the arbok segment I was working on fan art for a arbok evolution, it's name was Repiv, but no one probably cares.
28:39 Xerneas' and Yveltal's energy apparently overloading and transforming evolutionary stones......

"Where did the Mega Aerodactyl come from?"
The Pokedex entries have stated that Mega Aerodactyl is actually closer to Aerodactyl's original appearance, and that modern Aerodactyl are a lot more tame than the original Aerodactyl. It says that a strong bond with its trainer awakens dormant genes that bring back the rocks that were on Aerodactyl in ancient times.
not only that but the scientists probably had to fill in some gaps when reviving the old amber
If Mikey knew about this he would give the other fossil Pokemon a new mega form, but seeing this video is also trying to move on from mega puts him in a tight spot, but Mega Omastar and Mega Kabutops would be sick!

IMO you do not owe a pokemon a favorite just because of their fame. which is why im silently against the "bulbasaur best" memes.

To be fair, Mew got its exclusive z-move genesis supernova. It’s also the Pokémon that Goh is so focused on catching in Pokémon journeys. Speaking of journeys. Ash got a Dragonite recently and it’s probably his most powerful Pokémon of the season so far. So I don’t think Dragonite is being forgotten any time soon.

For Tauros and Miltank, a baby form would be nice. A Calf Pokemon that evolves depending on it's gender.
NO NO NO MILTANK CAN GO DIE IN LAVA PIT NO NO NO
I HATE IT
sorry if I affend u sorry trauma from battle mason
Minoutaurs would be cool add that BUT add the minoutaurs to as a final evo many can split with miltank
@@idiot528 um
Fun fact they should make a tauros evo witch is of course boufflant
@@kusumasaipedireddy6769 That's why no regional Tauros form will really work for me. It's already Bouffalant.
That's a cool idea!
What's silly about Electrode's design concept? It's a mimic, the RPG monster that takes the appearance of a treasure chest to be a surprise enemy and a trap. Since PokeBalls are the loot sprite, it makes sense that the mimic is a PokeBall. You could give it a gold variation that can trick you into thinking you have found a TM.
Voltorb is a trap, Electrode is lazy
your describing voltorb
If I'm not mistaken (though it's also been a long time), the Pokéball item sprite was used for wild Voltorbs in the Gen 1 RBY Power Plant.
Making Electrode yellow wouldn't make any logical sense to change its type though. Not to mention that just painting Voltorb yellow would get the job done without making a new pokemon.
A Rock/Steel Type Electrode that is Gold & Silver with moves like Payday & Stab Roll Out/Rock Slide. Give them a distaste for exploding & somewhat greedy personality & you have an interesting concept. Still we could always go away from the mimic aspect & have something like Normal Electrode that's a Giant Baseball or Watermelon Electrodes designed to protect Watermelons from predators & thieves.
I love how Primeape has been quite weak and forgettable for so long, and it got one of the most badass evolutions, great offensive typing, and a *great* signature move. Man, everything about Anihilape is just so good
Annihilape “im about to rock this mans world”
"When was the last time you thought about a Dewgong?"
Dude, pretty much today cause it's my favorite Pokémon
why?
Imagine a Fairy Water type Dewgong.. Pretty..
Mikey: When was the last time you thought of a dewgong?
Me, playing Pokemon Stadium on my freshly hooked up N64: ....like, 5 minutes ago...
I love dewgong because it was my first random encounter shiny
The designs a bit bland, but can at least one person agree with me that it’s somewhat cute?
I like how you called yourself out about Electrode in the Legends: Arceus tier video. Gamefreak really threw us all for a loop and you gave them credit for it.
13:50 wow grass-fire pepper inspired pokemon
This aged well
1:18 the way he just says "when was the last time you thought about a dewgong" made me die laughing for like 5 minutes🤣🤣
For Aerodactyl, I always took it that the reviving process wasn’t perfected in Gen 1. Meaning the Pokémon were revived, but they weren’t completely restored to their proper forms and bodies. That’s why Asrodactyl’s mega form is described as “Resembling Aerodactyl’s true form”.
That doesn’t have to do with what he said.
@@aperson7577 How? He was confused about why the mega exists, this person gave a reason.
Good point, Gamefreak probably had the same line of thought as Michael and then wrote those mega evolution Pokedex entries to explain it
Ngl something I'd love to see as a regional form for Tentacruel would be a Water/Dark type based off a Vampire Squid, and for whatever the next gen's gimmick is let them become a straight up Kracken
I would see a electric type tentacreul regional variant because they are based off jellyfish
no more water type to much
But... Tentacruel is a jellyfish not a squid or na octopus.
I wanted a gmax tentacruel to represent the kraken
If it was dark type I think becoming cthulu is more fitting
A new ditto form, he could be shiny and when he transforms into other pokemon they are in their shiny form as well. I dont know if this is a thing or not but if not, I think it would be cool.
No, ditto just transforms into the pokemon, 100% as it is (excluiding Gigantamax and substitutes and a bunch of other exceptions) even if its shiny or not, something funny would be a different ditto to transform into the shiny if its not and vice versa
2:55
Welp that’s wrong as of this morning
I wanted Legends Original Dragon or whatever, but I was actually ready to kill for mega evolution to be back. So hyped
"Electrode should absolutely NOT get any new forms!"
-That aged well ;)
This video was made before Hisuian Voltorb was revealed
I see a ghost type Parasect evolution as this weird turnaround, with the mushroom getting possessed by the ghost of the bug it parasitized .
oh how the turns have tabled
It would be interesting to see the Bug pokemon the parasite took over never infected too
"Gamefreak has clearly moved past mega evolution"
Pokemon Z-A: 😐
Yeah we need an update on this video.
11:51 *Primape* got Annihilape.
14:02 *Tentacruel and Tentacool* doesn't really has anything, except that they created 2 mushroom types versions based on this pokemon, called Toadscool and Toadscruel.
18:09 *Electrode* has a Hissuian form.
20:53 *Taurus* has 3 Paldean forms that are now Pure Fighting. A Blaze breed that's Fighting/Fire and an Aqua breed that's Fighting/Water.
P.S. just a thought for @16:30 *Dewgong* is actually easy. Give Dewgong the Zero to hero ability. They gave this ability to Palafin (Which is very bland, it's just a Dolphin), so give Dewgong the move called: Flip turn, and give Dewgong a Hero form.
Or maybe a Villain form? Or anti-hero form?
@@gunsandroses896 For one. I love your Account character, Ruby Rose. Big fan of the RWBY series and awaiting volume 9.
Second. I do like Guns and roses. Sweet child of mine is such an oldy, but a goody.
Third. A villian form? I guess Gamefreak could do that yeah! Well the ability can remain the same offcourse "Zero to Hero", as it would operate the same as Palafin. They could give the new Dewgong form (villian form/anti-hero from) the counterpart of Palafin and base it more on the special attack side, where Palafin is based on the physical attacks. Just slap some whiskers on Dewgong, to give it some jaggy cartoon twirly mustache 😁. Bit like how Wario is the anti-hero counterpart of Mario 😆. It would help Dewgong to stand out more.
@@melvindekkers6105 that would be absolutely perfect. Maybe turn it from white to black and red. Perhaps even change type to fire because weak to water (and villains lose to heroes) and make it more interesting.
why not just make Palafin have different forms depending on nature@@gunsandroses896
With Dewgong, I'd love to see an ancient form in Legends: Arceus that has the horn more pronounced (like a Narwhal) and perhaps a different color (could be explained as Sinnoh having a white area making Dewgong evolve a whiter coat over time)
Or maybe it was hunted for its horn and thus evolved to be more "boring" to avoid predation from humans..
I was also thinking narwhal as a regional variant for dewgong my brother and I are making a region together and we are making it
Or a stellar seas cow form. It be bigger with higher defense and special defense.
@@KhanMann66 or give it a new evolution with a bigger horn (like a narwhal) and tusks made out of ice and a mustache (like a walrus). it can be called... Whalrus!
Make it super bulky with a high defence and HP, with a decent attack with the lance. Call it "Marwall" (mar = ocean, and wall). It'll be the lance pokemon. Marwall covers itself in ice to form a tough armour and brave enemy attacks before charging at them with its icy lance
I think one of the reasons Dewgong goes overlooked is the fact that Walrein exists. I mean they are close enough to one another, but Walrein is just better in any perceivable way.
One of those times where the Gen 3 clone actually legit outperforms its Gen 1 original.
and then Primarina on gen seven

Lets give primape a variant that is peaceful.
Pokemon: How about No
*AGAIN, THERE SHOULD BE 2 E'S IN PRIMEAPE!*
15:40 dewgong could have some sort of water fire form like a volcanic form. That would be cool
Plus. I think the eeveelution’s could have something? Like mega’s
@@PizzacrusT14_gaming Pretty sure that most of the eveelutions are pretty decent. If they do add megas for them, i think Espeon and Umbreon is the most suitable
@@NexoNexus hmm. Good point. I guess to balance it out for all of them maybe a new evolution for them.
@@PizzacrusT14_gaming good lord, could you imagine getting a new game where they introduce a new second evo for every single eeveelution.
@@crackball22 that would be awesome
Miltank should have been changed to fairy or normal/fairy type so when we inevitably revisit Johto, Whitney’s gym could seamlessly transition to fairy type which aligns better with her character
That would jsut make the fight harder because the traded machop you can get would not be able to deal super effective damage
@@susamogus8331 But what about Poison types? Aren't there any early game Poison types in Johto?
@@susamogus8331 Plus Miltank being Fairy type means Cyndaquil resist one of it's STABs!
@@ExcalibeonSwordofEeveelutions i think it will still have rollout so there goes that idea tho idk what it's full moveset would be
Milk drink
Stomp
Rollout
Play rough?(idk that's the only physical fairy move i know)
I feel like Miltank should get a grass-type regional variant (because almond/other plant-based "milk")
I've actually been thinking about dewgong a lot because of the regional forme I gave them in my homebrew region, a pure flying type. Here, the seel have adapted to become extremely light, no longer being able to submerge in water but lying on top of it, taking an a consistency similar to fog or mist and their bodies to become more fluffy/puffy. The dewgong of the region take this newfound lightness and master it, floating across the sky as clouds. They are obviously based on clouds, but they are also less seals/sealions and more manatees, as images of unbothered manatees floating through the river or zoo exhibit without a care for the world around them made me think of clouds lazily floating by. Other reasons were me wanting more pure flying types and less bird/dragon flying types, as well as a flying type pokemon to truly call Bounce its main move, seel in this case. Metagame-wise, they would have the abilities Clear smoke and Lightningrod (thematically this would allow them to float through lightning storms unbothered) with Drizzle as a hidden ability, having access to wind based moves as well as storm themed ones like thunder and especially hurricane at later levels. One of my gym leaders, an extremely talented trainer who would rather hang out with his pokemon and gaze up at the sky all day, uses it as their signature pokemon, complemented by a team of drifblim, minior and togetic, gaining an altaria in later matches.
I beg of you, make a type of video on your whole region
That's a real cool idea man
So water/flying?
I have no idea what the origins are but yeah it seems alright
What about a narwhal? It could be fairy/water
14:46 and mega form
*Annihilape enters the chat.*
18:10 Electrode: This Pokemon should absolutely *NOT* get any new forms!
_Looks concerned to Hisuian Voltorb_
Note that this video was made after the revealing of Hisuian Growlithe, but before the revealing of Hisuian Voltorb and the release of PLA and SV.
Lol
Game freak is like parents, they forget about the creatures they made!
That's just sad lmao
Pffffffft
I’m dead 😂
Who are you even?
@@santoshibasak9334 it is a joke
14:02, dose Toedscruel count as giving it attention?
Toedscruel is based on a mushroom, not a jellyfish
@@fadhilmulyono9230
Still based of tentacruel
Yeah but diglett’s doesn’t because I think it said somewhere that toadscruel is related to tentacruel but Wiggler isn’t to Diglett
2:57
A FOOLISH MISCALCULATION
Mikey: “if it doesn’t have a third evolution well… it needs one.” Except dugong
In regards to the fossils.... Aeordactyl got a Mega - which since people are wondering, the dex states the energy of mega evolution allows it to grow those rocks which are a more accurate portrayal of how it looked when it was a normal living pokemon, so it lost them when being revived. If you put a Kabutops next to a Genesect it becomes alarmingly clear what ancient pokemon made Genesect; which I acknowledge isn't a cool new evo or anything, but it's still something to make you remember the old line.
Meanwhile our good Lord Helix got NOTHING. The ONLY Gen 1 fossil with nothing of any kind to it's name.
4:30 I think they can get a paradox form which combines both of them together like Iron Valliant
Maybe it could be called "Iron Kingdom" or something like that to reference the fact that they have King and Queen in their names.
Mikey, you said that Aerodactol’s mega doesn’t make sense, did you forget about it’s Pokédex description? It states that this is most likely what Aerodactol looked like in the ancient past.
It also says that when it mega evolves it hurts a lot for Aerodactol
True
Aerodactol is an underrated Pokemon dude
Fossil evolution yes..they can make 3rd evolution / split evolution for the revive fossil that it will remove there rock type for there true evolution typing
**still prefer a 3rd evolution though
I say megas are the true form
And maybe charizard's 2 forms are split like kyurem
I always thought Voltorb should've gotten a third evolution depending on the type of PokeBall you caught them with, basically a gen 1 rotom complete with different types and maybe even stats
Bruh nice idea
It Shoulda gotten the steel typing like Magnamite it does look like a steel type
Damn dude thats an amazing idea! I always pictured theyre being a huge branched evolution but thats honestly a way better idea
Imagine you use a masterball amd its a psuedo legendary since thats the best pokeball lmao
@Robin- FakeASMR Must Be Stopped Do you do Hardcore Nuzlocke’s? Master Balls are nothing special in HN Nuzlockes. Lol. They’re great for a guaranteed encounter that’ll be incredibly beneficial for your run. Other than that, they’re just another item. 🤷🏾♂️
Mikey: “Regular permanent evolutions don’t happen anymore.”
*Dudunsparce and Annihilape:*
1. This was before ScVi
And 2. While it’s very likely 100% they are permanent evos, we can’t say fully 100% because there are no mainline games after ScVi, when they were introduced.
18:35 what they could do for the Electrode line is give it a baby evolution- an apricorn Pokémon that likes to hang out in trees
I love Dewgong for being a simple beauty, which is befitting a Water/Ice type. Crisp and clean. For those reasons I'm not thrilled with the idea of it receiving a regional variant like I would be for many other gen 1 pokemon. A split evolution would be perfect, giving Seel the opportunity to turn into a different Water/??? type without touching Dewgong's legacy at all. The Oddish line shows just how great split evolution can be with Vilepume and Bellossom~
I think an evolution for dewgong would work and it should be a narwhal, its got the little horn on its head just waiting to sprout
Well, they do have a walrus, but that thing's native to Hoenn, so I guess that doesn't count.
Why do I feel like bellossom is a bad example
Water/Normal
Same I love dewgong too, do you know why he used a pictute of a manatee for dewgong?
