It's one of the oldest and most infamous creepypastas out there -- that you killed your Rival's Raticate in Pokemon Red and Blue. But are you truly an eleven-year-old with blood on your hands? Unlike most other creepypasta, this Pokemon theory actually HAS evidence that gives us a definitive answer one way or the other, evidence that has gone largely unnoticed for the better part of the last decade. So today's Pokemon Theory is putting this question to rest...pun intended. Should Red be renamed as "Murderer Red?" Let's find out!

>talks about how scary raticate would be
>doesn't mention that beedrill is a three foot tall hornet with spears for arms
In the anime the bee drills would attack unprovoked (sometimes) tho
Also doesn’t talk about the Pokémon that’s 18,000 degrees Fahrenheit and the sun is only 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit
What about a dragon
What about drifloon, the Pokemon that kidnaps children
>talks about how scary beedrill is

I didn't kill Raticate. He killed himself because he was confused.
Hyper Fang'd his own wrists. Who can blame him? He's a slave to Gary after all...
lol genius

*slow clap*
You get a cookie
An alternative theory is that Gary fought a different Pokémon trainer who killed Ratticate, thus explaining its absence and removing the blood from your hands.
yeah how does EVERYONE skip the fact that Team Rocket could've done that?
I prefer to think of it like that so I feel less bad
Huh.
@@avak2101 Team Rocket could've stolen it from him
@@GageLeFox IDK maybe he was just traveling with it only
Red didn't kill Blue's Raticate, Blue was actually smart and said "if this thing is on my team when I challenge the Elite 4, I won't be the Champion"

Theory: He abandoned his Raticate because it failed the battle and the raticate died, and then was buried after being found some wher
THANK YOU
You forget the fact that Blue claims that he has caught 40 pokemon in the battle before the one on S.S Anne. He actively choses to not use 6 pokemon, supposedly because he wants to level up the strongest ones
Correct 💯
Btw I was about to fight blue in SSN.
I was scared to fight now
But.....
I remembered your explanation and....
ITS JUST A GAME 😂
How the hell do you bury something on the top floor of a building?
I've always wondered this. When did you ever see a graveyard building?
maybe those tombstones are actually tombs to contain the remains of the pokemon's ASHes
_GLXC So if it's a Cryogonal it'd be a jar of water? #sorrynotsorry
Could be that while they have grave markers only ashes, are stored (or even just sprinkled when the marker is erected).
I'm guessing the Pokemon Tower was a mausoleum, and those gravestones are actually tombs that hold the dead Pokemon.
I just want to point out that just because it might have died doesn't mean YOU killed it. I mean when Blue was getting off the boat Ratacate could have fell into the water.
o o f
Its GARY.......
true but if it did was it in its pokeball
@@turtleboi3236 And in the anime we know Pokemon literally cannot die of age as long as they're in a pokeball. Or starvation/dehydration, I suppose. I'm thinking to that D/P episode with the Sandshrew that was underwater and was *completely fine, immediately upon release.* And also in D/P with James' Carnivine he literally stashed away.
Man, D/P has a lot to say about this theory, huh?

Except pikachu does get harmed but other lightning attacks which implies he doesn’t have that skill. (Pikachu does do something similar at the very end of the Lt. Surge battle by standing on his tail)
Yes that sounds great
Gary: Ok Raticate I am 90 percent sure you woulnd't die, just dont hit your self in confusion, If you do hit your self the next hit from ash will be fatal

I'm serious, this was like my biggest question of all the time.
I tortured my younger brother with this question XD
Only after some months I remembered MatPat and his Channel because I was searching for scary things in Minecraft and Pokémon and then found this, and I knew from the start that I could sleep peacefully and guilty after this video.
Right there with you matt, that latios scene is one heck of a tear jerker. Bo matter how many times i see that seen i will always cry a little for it. They did really good with tugging at the heart strings
Maybe Gary didn't want to use Raticate because he's garbage.
Wow that's actually the conclusion Mat came to. Well.
+RenegadeGamer HAHAHA well there's no reason for me to watch the rest of this video cause someone didnt post the SPOILER ALERT
congrats on that prediction.
Well, Raticate, with the right moveset, was actually able to be a powerful ally to beat the game. I played a "Gary Run" where I used only Gary-owned Pokemon through the game. Keeping Raticate would have helped him out if he kept it leveled with his team. Raticate eRaticated Lorelei (only being Lv. 57), wasn't used vs Bruno Mars, destroyed Agatha's Golbat and Arbok and was useful against her other Pokemon, then only fainted when I got to Lance. If trained well, it's quite powerful, especially with Alakazam to make up for its weaknesses.
A fully evovled raticate is pretty strong tbh. doesnt mean he looks like a rat that you can judge him by apperance.
What's funny is last year I actually found a giant rat chewing on my ramen packets... Shrimp.
We moved then.
That is raticate
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whoops
Rosealee Clark I read “What’s funny” when The last part came in about the murderer
Lol
That raticate evolved because of BOND OF FRIENDSHIP!!!
Blue also talks about how many different pokemon he has caught, saying on the S.S Anne (I believe) he has caught 40 different types of pokemon, but only has 4 on his team. Proving more that he just boxed both his original rattata and his raticate.
My older brother told me once that “Pokémon is basically dogfighting but with cuter and more complex animals” and now I’ve never been able to look at the game the same.
I still love Eevee tho

Re-watching again...
I always just assumed that Garry left that space open intentionally... I mean if you're trying to catch a pokémon and are looking for something specific like ability, nature or stats... wouldn't you leave one spot open so that you can check as soon as you catch it?

+Lord Frieza Ayy shoutout to TFS
Its basically a giant mausoleum; those small stone buildings you see in cemeteries. Instead of the bodies being buried in the ground, they are instead stored in the floors and walls of a building.

I think it's in their Pokeballs, I've always believed that there's a little cupboard thing in the bottom of the gravestones that trainers can place their deceased Pokemon's Pokeball in.

Pedro Araujo, legendary Pokemon animator, depicted the death of raticate as drowned falling into the sea because of Red's nidoking.
Man, rewatching these is an experience. No wonder I used to headcanon every theory video as true as a child, you just put it in a way that it makes sense to me.
I mean, I may not know much about the older generations of Pokemon, but I do know Garry... Isn't exactly the best. Garry probably was wandering at some point and found an already-evolved Raticate, caught it, and switched Ratata out for it because he thought it was stronger, and did the same when he found Exeggcute.
Or, you could notice some of the comments below as I saw one that said he possibly could have forced the Ratata to evolve (Which I know is possible because I very much remember an Pokemon Anime episode where this one guy was forcing his Pokemon to work unreasonably hard) and because of that and the battle on the S.S Anne it died.
Either way, even if this video was released about 4 years ago, I gotta appreciate it.
oh man that episode was season 1 episode 8, ash pointed out that it was wrong but they just let it slide because that trainer beat team rocket
Plot twist : they are actually playing nuzlocke
Ye
@Felix Chen no the first battle doesn't count
What if we kill his blastoisr
I always lose my starter in a nuzlock
Not Funny ,we murdered a Pokémon
Gary even says in the game before one battle that he’s caught 40 kinds of Pokémon so unless he has a mass amount of dead Pokémon, the answer is obvious.
Bro would have to be filling up The Lavender Tower himself

And uf iirc it was imposible to be 40 entries

You made me laugh

That is great don’t leave
Also I was like number 69
well gary didn’t tell me he was doing a nuzlocke 😤
If i remember, he was looking for a cubone in the tower or he was also looking for a ghastly. So that just explain why he was there. Not to mention, he also said "I looked for every pokemon that can beat and types!" before we fight him in the pokemon league, normal cant counter anything other than ghost types which they cant even hit. So the logical thing to do is to box it, since he already have a alakazam.
Here's my theory about this. Now because Gary's Raticate is at level 16 in its final battle that leaves Mat to believe that it wasn't the same Ratata 'cos Ratata doesn't evolve until level 20.
But here's the thing, the absolute lowest level you can catch a Raticate in Red/Blue in the wild is level 23 in Route 16. So Gary couldn't have caught it in the wild either (unless you're playing Yellow as a Raticate can be caught Level 15 there).
So that leaves me to believe that Gary forced his Ratata to evolve early. Now it sounds impossible but remember that Gary doesn't exactly treat his Pokemon with love and respect.
My thought is that Gary pushed his Ratata so hard that it evolved faster than it should have. And this strain that this put Ratata/Raticate under is what causes it to die when you make it faint in the battle at the SS Anne.
That makes more sense actually
yeah, blue/garry is not the only one, lance has underleved dragonites in the end of the game, and theres alot more examples in the other games too.
I swear Falkner had like a level 9 Pidgeotto in GSC and level 13 in HGSS.
You, my sir, are a legend
That's definitely something worth rolling around in the brain.
I've never liked the "You Killed Blue's Raticate" theory. My main evidence against it is when you beat him before Nugget Bridge, he says "I went to Bill's and got him to show me his rare Pokémon! . . . He invented the Pokémon Storage System on PC! Since you're using his system, go thank him!" This strongly implies that thanking Bill is what Blue was just doing, further implying that Blue uses the storage system. The simplest explanation: Blue stored his Raticate.
Not nearly as interesting.
I think the reason why he switches out his Raticate is to say that you can store your pokemon. I think the pokemon company did it as an example, saying that since he did it, you can do it too.
That is a good theory actually
Yea that battle was before you got on s.s Anne where u "killed" Raticate
But he said that in the theory
This is why I need to wait til the end of the episodes, because I was going to say “this is depressing” but right before I did, Mat said “absolutely not”
The single issue I have with this theory is the fact that it uses so much evidence from the TV series, which really pushes the boundaries of "official canon" imo... lots of impossible things happen in the series that kind of offset the lore of the game.
At least the level thing which decided it all is from the games so it ultimately didn't matter
The first time I ever heard this “You killed raticate ” theory, I thought of course he uses his box. He says on the ss Anne I caught 40 Kinds of Pokemon. In case you don’t know Once a Pokemon is caught, it’s stored in The pc.

After all these years I still find it funny matt doesnt mention rattata can die If its teeth grow too long
Let me disprove this theory real quick:
The level 16 Raticate that can’t be the same actually can be. We have seen under leveled Pokémon before; most famous being Lance and his 3 under leveled Dragonites. The next thing I want to say is: why is Blue in a cemetery, saying you didn’t bury your Pokémon when he challenges you there? The next piece of evidence I want to provide is that the Trainers don’t know they are in a game, meaning they don’t see levels like we do, at least that we know of. Another I want you to check is if it’s nature and ability are the same, it’s 90% that they are the same Pokémon.
All my evidence disproving this theory.
I love how in the right grave is Cubone mom
Arent there a lot of illegal level pokemon that npcs have?
Yep
Maybe wild pokemon have different evolution rules than trained pokemon and then those trainers caught them after the fact.
One example without looking up Bulbapedia: Team Rocket Trio's Arbok and Weezing in Yellow
Look up and you'll find more
So... Does that mean Team Rocket Trio also changed (not evolved) Ekans into Arbok, and Koffing to Weezing?
Ghetsis's Hydreigon in Black and White anyone?
Lance had a level 40 Dragonite. LEVEL 40.
Also this has nothing to do with the video but I’ll say it anyway: if ur rival chose squirtle, he will have a arcanine and exeggutor. If ur rival chose bulbasaur, he will have a gyrados and a arcanine. If ur rival chose charmander, he will have a gyrados and a exeggutor.
Just to let u know matpat,
I never noticed that.
That's cool.
Mike Henderson yeah. He also did that in Yellow with Gyrados/Arcanine/Raichu, if I remember properly.
The battle in Pokemon Tower is actually the 4th rival battle. The first rival battle on Route 22 is optional, and is normally referred to as Rival 1A

My brain: Too bad.
Same.
Unus
I'm your brain
YES
I think that Pokémon can evolve earlier when they're trained by NPCs. This is evidence from a different game, but if MatPat can use questionable canon then so can I. In Pokémon GSC, Lance fights you at the Indigo Plateau with two level 47 and a level 50 Dragonite. When _you_ train Dragonair, however, it doesn't evolve until level 55. So I think it's entirely plausible that Gary's Raticate is the same Pokémon as his level 15 Rattata at Nugget Bridge. As an NPC, he's able to make his Pokémon evolve at a different level than you.
yeah lastly matpat theories have been stretched a litte bit...
see,video games tend to be assholes when it comes to NPC levels and items,from early leveling to not having enough strenght to being overwieght
so we're going to accept that NPCs are magic and can make pokemon evolve faster, but not that Garys team is only 5 pokemon for balance reasons?
But then again, at the nugget bridge battle, his starter is Level 17 and it still hasn't evolved yet. There is also the chance that he could've cancelled the evolution, but I doubt he would for whatever reason, since if he was waiting to get a move earlier which would be Scary Face/Rapid Spin/Razor Leaf (Charmander/Squirtle/Bulbasaur, all learned at Level 19), they still get that move, just 1 or 2 levels later after evolving. They're also in my opinion not that good/helpful since this isn't really including competitive play. His starter doesn't evolve till the next time you see him on the S.S. Anne, which is then Level 20, which then if he chose Bulbasaur OR Squirtle, then they would have Rapid Spin or Razor Leaf since those are learned at level 20 after evolving into Ivysaur/Wartortle, but not Scary Face if he picked Charmander, since Charmeleon learns that at level 21.
+Wylade I believe he set Raticate free/abandoned it because in the anime he abandons a Caterpie because it's too weak. And because Raticate is weaker than Exeggutor, he abandoned Raticate.
Me: ready for a story
Matpat: I'm sponsored!!
Me: gotta do me like that

Matpat: "Available as an audio book..."
Me: "Aw man! I thought you were gonna read me a story in that beautiful voice of yours!"
For real tho, I'd listen to this man read a book about taxes.
He probably just put it in his PC. He stated in a previous battle that he's already caught like 30-40 Pokemon, even though he doesn't have a full party during the battles afterwards.
A fate worse than death

Yeah, that's what the video is saying
You can have 40 pokemon, but only 5 viable ones and unless you're doing a nuzlocke, it doesn't matter if you have that 6th pokemon or not.

Matpad:*talking about stuff* me: the only thing I want to know now, is why there is two more minutes left, the mystery is solved
11:49 *cough cough* Except Speed *cough cough*
lkr lol
But come on, one is a rat and the other is a tree with a few faces on it
grkmk
speed don't mean anything in the end if that is all it got going for it.
Butterfree & Beedrill are hell of a lot faster than the rat and can do more as well.
the rat is weak to more or less everything other than ghost attacks. having a Magikcarp in the team would be over all better as it will evo into something far better.. but then again I think Gary lacks the attention span to wait that long.
+Dizzy Tackson It should still do that. Then having decent speed would be important to have.
Guys, KD signed with the Warriors, there is no more loyalty, Gary just swapped Pokémon.
L
+Mr Anything me too! Warriors will be so wierd next year, no bench game but a fiiirreeee starting 5

wtf are you talking about....
If you put the "you killed Raticate!" theory in perspective with the end of the game, Blue's life has basically been trashed by the time he's 12. He's seen his Pokemon die, failed his ultimate goal, lost to a childhood friend, even his grandfather's attention is refocused on said friend. That's kinda heavy. Also I mean the dude's can literally be renamed Asshat, he's got a pretty shitty life to start with
Just glad I'm not the only one looking at Old theory's
Here's a simple theory:
Remember how Lance has a level 47 Dragonite? Dragonite evolves at level 55.I'm assuming Pokemon doesn't check what level Pokemon evolve.
Lance is my first love
little gamingbird good point
A stone I guess. Idrk
little gamingbird lance could’ve just caught it at that level
I think gamefreak doesn't give a damn about logic. I mean, you play a 10 year old who goes out into the world to live alone,
to capture wild animals,
and to battle criminal organisations where police failed.
You can fit a whole bicycle into your backpack, and running is absolutely impossible without wearing the right shoes.
The professor next door asks you what gender you are,
and he forgets the name of his own grandson.
There are other trainers who are standing in the exact same spot 24/7,
and they immediately want to battle if they see you in front of them.
If you're next to them, they can't see you.
A bottle of water from a vending machine heals more HP than a potion designed for it,
and medical animal care is completely free of cost.
If your team faints, you run to the last pokemon center you were in, even if it's 5 cities away.
If you are in the middle of a cave, you can use a rope to get out.
You are not allowed to even exist outside of your town without pokemon to protect you.
Except for the safari zone, where there's gigantic, wild pokemon, that's not dangerous at all.
And driving your bike in closed buildings is prohibited, professor oak will tell you that, he always knows where you are.
There are ledges where it's impossible to climb up, but at the same time completely safe to jump down.
There are gold nuggets scattered all over the place, and they are coincidentally ALL found by the same person. Which is you.
A sleeping pokemon can break out of a ball if you try to catch it, then it continues sleeping.
A poisoned pokemon only takes damage if you move.
Random strangers give you their money and phone number if you defeat them.
If you catch a water pokemon, you have to teach it how to surf.
Throughout your whole journey, you never need to go to toilet,
and you never eat or drink anything, and you never sleep.
Once you defeated the top 4, you can come back and the guy who was master is still master, even though you clearly are now better.
You (still 10 years old) can go into a casino without a problem,
and pokemon battles with high amounts of money betting are legal in your age.
The police consists entirely of identical looking policewomen,
and all nurses look identical too.
That pokemon whose name i can't remember, the bird with two heads, can fly. Even though it doesn't have wings.
It can even carry you, to a city you've been before (only to cities, and only if you've been there before).
So can pidgey, a bird the size of a pigeon.
In battle, you can use your attacks regardless of your environment: flying up high while being inside of a small cave at the same time is entirely possible.
But what isn't possible is using the splash attack, which magikarp performs, to do any damage.
Though, according to the pokedex, magikarp can use it to jump over the top of mountains.
If inventory is full with a bicycle, a fishing rod, 44 pokeballs, 23 repels, 30 potions, 2 antidotes, 8 gold nuggets, a big load of money, a pokedex, a phone, a radio, your badges and loads of hms and tms, and you happen to find a candy on the floor, you can't carry it.
You are still able to throw a pokeball, but you cannot transport this candy.
There is a city where the only way out or in leads through a family's home.
But that's no problem, because if you enter a stranger's house, without ringing the doorbell or knocking, they will still welcome you, give you a gift and tell you their life story.
There are not toilets anywhere. Or sinks, or barhtubs.
There are pokemon centers everywhere, but not a single human hospital. Or fire station. And only one or two police stations.
There are fences in the middle of hiking paths which are arranged like mazes.
If there's a sleeping relaxo blocking our path, we can't catch it, or squeeze past it, or climb over, no, we need to wake it up.
That is only possible using the pokemon flute.
See, i could go on forever.
I couldn't help but laugh on the "on your journey to be the very best, like no one ever was."

There's all this suspicion about Gary's ratata and raticate dying/getting stored in a box but no one raised suspicion to them getting Stolen by none other than team Rocket. Or maybe just traded with one or two of them.
*scared modern Pokemon noises as I snuggle close to galar region and my Alolan Raticate from Pokemon lets go Pikachu.*
It's funny how he posted this the same day Papa Franku posted his
Collab?
AnImAl RiGhTs
Coincidence I think not
Blo bo bo bu bu ble ble ble ble ble ble
That's just a theory a CZcams theory
lol
I don't know who Papa Franku is but it must either be a coincidence or a collab because there is no way this video was done in a single day.
Lavender town's music is so catchy.
O sweet Jesus no
Yep
Yes.
It is the same tune as ghaster's theme. Compare them.
Yeah, I like it too :3
Theory: Red after killing Blues raticate was shunned by everyone including professor oak and his own mother, seeing this put him in a deep depression and he isolated himself from others. He then went to Mount Silver to be alone with his pokemon who were his only family at that point. During that 1 year period Red and his pokemon eventually died due to hypothermia because of the freezing temperatures there, which would explain why he doesnt speak and why he disappeared when he was utterly defeated by Gold. After being defeated it finally put his spirit to rest and same goes with his pokemon.
Interesting lore story theory idea thing lol 👍
2:32 You can’t have that team when you face off against the champion. Gamefreak made it so that he will have all three types in the starter type trio. If your rival picked Blastiose, then your rival would have an Arcanine and Executor, but you showed Blastoise, Gyrados, and Executor which is impossible because it wouldn’t cover the starter type trip.
I know I’m just nitpicking.
Great Vid!
