Stunfisk actually has a use for limber, albeit niche In generation 5, electric types could still be paralyzed by moves like glare and body slam. While absolutely niche, gen 5-8, stunfisk could use camouflage or reflect type and end up a non electric/ground type, making it susceptible to para.

[@neri1220]

Also Soak/Magic Powder could change it's type to water or psychic respectively and nowadays Tera types exist.

[@Daltonownzyoulol]

yeah i didnt know why this fact was put.... so many other ways to para lol

[@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy]

@@Daltonownzyoulol well the glare and body slam ones apply only in Gen 5. I guess he was talking about Stunfisk's most recent appearence

[@zekmaster644]

Electric types could be paralyzed by all paralyzing moves gen 5 and prior

[@AnimeboyIanpower]

@@neri1220 And I learned that if an Electric type Pokémon Terastallizes into a non-Electric Tera Type and gets paralyzed, it will remain paralyzed when it de-Terastallizes.

4:10 Just to correct you on one thing, the word "air" in malay and indo means water, and it is read as "a-yer", so I honestly doubt any Malaysians or Indonesians will get confused.

Charizard, the best known Flame/Bird-type Pokémon.

[@AmeliaBerdel-xv3wp]

Even though it's not a bird but yeah I agree 😆

[@asmodeus58XX]

@@AmeliaBerdel-xv3wpThat's why, if ever GF adopts my idea of making secondary type effects inferior to primary type effects (super effective attack on a mon's secondary type, for example Psychic attacks against Bulbasaur, will only deal 1.5 damage) That could be a great way to distinguish between primary and secondary Flying types. All birds will have their primary type changed to Flying (and Fire for Talonflame, or Dragon for Altaria, will become the secondary type), while the likes of Charizard, Dragonite and Lugia will remain with Flying as a secondary type. We already have some distinguishes: Houndoom (Dark/Fire) VS Incineroar (Fire/Dark), Torterra (Grass/Ground) VS Toedscruel (Ground/Grass), Skarmory VS Corviknight and, from the very beginning, Golem VS Rhydon.

[@ecuadorian_gamer]

Well, in Generation V, Electric-type Pokémon were not immune to paralysis, so Stunfisk, being both an Electric- and Ground-type Pokémon, could have been paralyzed by non-Electric-type moves, such as Stun Spore

[@enoyna1001]

Or Static

[@edgargaebolg9307]

Body Slam

[@diostaku2]

Another fun fact about "Steel Beam" is that in Spanish and French the move was called "Métalaser", which personally sounds much more creative and clever than the super generic "someting" beam thing.

[@imphie]

Steel Beam is a pun though:( it references steel beams, and also a beam of energy I was actually just thinking about the move the other day and how fun of a pun it is

[@waterierStone]

Fun fact about dragons: the noibat line are the only dragons where Flying is the primary type. It's even rare among all flying types for having flying as the primary type among all the dual type flyers; there's only 5 dual type flying types with flying as thier first type.

[@0mega717]

If you were to make a video about every used type combination, I’ve got one for Dragon/Fairy: While it’s still technically been used before, it’s the only combination that can only be found thanks to a generation-specific condition. By this, I mean Mega Altaria and Mega Evolution.

11:23 Too bad Psyduck and Golduck are not psychic types... To this day it is still unknown why. Perhaps they would get regional variant that would be part psychic or perhaps they would eventually get 3rd stage evolution who would be water/psychic. I would love to see that.

[@raphaelkhoury218]

Yeah!

[@neri1220]

Another fact about Water types is that it was the first type to get all possible dual type combinations with other types, though water/fire is only for a Volcanion who is legendary/mythical.

4:09 the real fact is Air means Water in Malaysian\Indonesian version so thats not confusing at all 😅

[@bapademon1084]

Another fun fact about the bug type is that as of gen 9, we are yet to get a bug type legendary that isnt a mythical (genesect), ultra beast or gimick-based (arceus and silvally holding the insect plate and bug memory)

[@AnimeboyIanpower]

4:34 Ampharos' Electric/Dragon Mega typing is also a reference to its Japanese name "Denryu", which translates to "Lightning Dragon".

[@forgerofsouls9126]

Limber on stunfisk is not useless. Just niche. With the many moves that can change Pokemon types, Limber on Stunfisk makes it immune to para even after being hit by moves such as "Soak", "Forest's Curse", or even it's Egg Move "Reflect Type". Even back in gens 5, 6, and 7, it could learn "Camouflage". In other words, the point of this ability was to tie in with "Camouflage" and other type changing abilities. Now, that is mostly useless in PvP level play for the most part, but, not useless altogether as you are making it sound like. It's a niche ability for Stunfisk though. One that I've actually used before in playthroughs, because stunfisk is not as bad as people tend to think it is.

[@giboit.]

I don´t know if there´s enough content for this idea, but I think it could be very fun if you make a video called "Every time a human character was disguised/cosplayed as a pokemon" (in the anime/games) and maybe explaining the context as to why they did it. I remembered Bill disguised as a kabuto (and Ash wanting to catch him) and the guy dressed as a machamp in the alola games to pick up girls and I think those were some fun scenarios. So it would be cool to know if there´s more examples.

Rock/Grass in general is surprisingly great. The two share ten weaknesses, however no less than SIX are neutralized: Fire, Flying, Grass, Ground, Poison and Water. Add to that the STAB super effective damage you can deal to Bug and Ice (which are still weaknesses) and you only have to worry about Fighting and Steel. Wow. Grass/Fire, of course, is also great, only weak to Flying, Poison and Rock (which can be dealt STAB super effective Grass damage back), but that's only five weaknesses neutralized and one can be dealt STAB double damage back, compared to six weaknesses neutralized and two that can be dealt STAB double damage back.
