7 Creepiest Pokemon Backstories That Will Fuel Your Nightmares Forever - Volume 2

[@outsidextra]

Brace yourselves and hold onto your souls, as we delve back into the nightmare world of creepy Pokemon backstories D:

[@holyshaxx265]

Outside Xtra I'm Scared already

[@fallenaasimar3878]

I think the Pokémon team may need some help.

[@fergusodonoghue5698]

Outside Xtra I think Ellen's lamp attack on Andy may have been caused when Andy said a historical fact on lamps before the show.

[@Kimichitsuzuku]

We all know what makes any children's entertainment good. Trauma, horror and emotional scarring.

[@Shadowcat753]

My suggestion for this list - the fire starter that's a chicken and the fire starter that's a pig, (gens 3 & 4). Not because of the Pokedex, but because of the (unseen) implication that these Pokemon because they rare because self-cooking and/or being eaten by humans, (just saying - I would consider making a restaurant similar to KFC using the Fire Chicken Pokemon family if I was in the Pokemon world. It probably tastes better then Slowpoke tail and is likely cheaper/delicious.) Seriously, it's basically cooking itself in either case (for either bacon or delicious chicken legs) through using fire moves. I know there's more then one pig Pokemon (but seriously who wants bacon that can read your thoughts anyway), but there's only one chicken Pokemon in the entire Pokedex.

[@shannonolivas9524]

The old man turned to his beloved Lampent to caress his friend one last time, and as he passed on the man's family saw the Lampet begin shaking, his blue flame flaring in what they assumed was a fit of grief. "He's in a better place now" said his wife... his daughter however, was unsure.

[@baconlovingvampire4523]

Oof

[@wellgollygee9029]

Dame

[@ponyempiresunite9702]

Oh hell naw!

[@ambermargheim5726]

Very sad, very good

[@FavenCitruss]

Oh nononononoNO

[@reraltofgivia8814]

I died when Andy got attacked by a lamp after he said “how much damage can a lamp do?”

[@galladesamurai2380]

*lämp möth intensifies*

[@Hybrid_Quagsire]

Depends. Is the lamp lit? Quite a bit, if so... Or even if not lit, because it can be lit after it hits you!

[@lightfangx6961]

*aaaaAAAAAAAAHHH-*

[@TheLastArbiter]

"Once it has identified something as an enemy, it will CONTINUE beating them..." Was it beating them BEFORE identifying them?!

[@cooperthomas6634]

No its talking about after its already beat them to death

[@nathanthetweety278]

Scizor: *BAM* *BAM* Oh umm... what are you doing here?... [Just beat the life out of their trrainer] Trainer :get in the pokeball...

[@maxblake5564]

Omfg that’s terrifying.

[@Hybrid_Quagsire]

No it's not, scizor isn't evil and if you think it is you're an idiot. If you think scizor actually just attacks on sight... I mean, it quite literally says "once it identifies a target as an enemy", suggesting it DOESN'T, you know, attack everything in a five hundred mile radius?

[@opheliamunroe1110]

You don't hit first and ask questions later?

[@troperhghar9898]

When a golbat hits the ground of its cave it is devoured by diglets

[@mauricioos2294]

it's devoured by dunsparce

[@travisbrewer1641]

Mauricio Schug what a terrible way to go

[@amandagarcia2848]

Not clafairy?

[@baconlovingvampire4523]

Drug trio is also a possibility

[@dragondreamer2059]

No it's devoured by a eevee

[@timothymclean]

Wait, you're _surprised_ that a world where ten-year-olds wandering in the wilderness is considered good science has no shortage of kids dying in the forest?

[@johnwolf2349]

Timothy McLean My theory is It's secretly a measure to keep population growth down.

[@timothymclean]

I'd say you're crazy, but there _are_ actually isolated societies which practiced that sort of thing before Europeans said "You're part of our empire now, you don't need to do that."

[@seanthebluesheep]

Why do they need to keep the population down? Is there a lack of resources? Probably not, land is readily available from all of the wilds surrounding towns. The towns also seem relatively safe, so it's not like large settlements need defending. Is the birth rate too high? Possibly, but I don't think so since every lonely mother probably has a pokeball or two stashed in a dresser drawer with a Lickitung and Smoochum, the ass-eating Pokemon.

[@kharnthebetrayer8251]

There are mentions of a war with pokemon at some point in the past of Pokemon. Maybe the humans actually lost, and have to send children as sacrifices for the Pokemon in a hunger-games-esque sacrifice, and that's the real reason they have trainers.

[@shiroyasha7324]

Timothy McLean lol yup :P

[@Rtr-sp9om]

wait...grandpa+Dragon=Drampa OMG I CRACKED THE CODE!!!

[@rossrocs6055]

You only noticed that now...

[@FavenCitruss]

I know lol

[@janesherry3453]

i knew that the first time i herd and say drampa its pretty simple really

[@Spring_312]

we been cracked the code

[@strangle3311]

As someone who watched "The Neverending Story 1" i can confirm, the Luck Dragon, is like a grandpa

[@Tx72everywhere]

That gorebyss metal introduction was brilliant XD

[@coffeepoweredkatie6290]

Now if anyone doesn't say Gorebyss like that, they're doing it wrong lol

[@catlegend5069]

It was comic genius

[@Kd7x462]

I want that as a ringtone

[@JamesCPotter13]

I love the fact that she called it an EELEGANT AND NO ONE caught the perfect pun.

[@ponyempiresunite9702]

"Tentacruel is interested in your mom." That's nightmare fuel. The lamp that eats your soul? Meh. A chunk of wood posessed by a spirit of a child? Ok. A child that was mutated into a Pokemon by accident? Sure. But Tentecruel? Hell naw.

[@maxblake5564]

What about the ornate jellyfish created from a soul lost at sea that seeks nothing more than to feed off the souls of those foolish enough to lose sight of the shore in the Pokémon world. Jellicent is pure nightmare fuel.

[@Hybrid_Quagsire]

"that's the last bath I'll take with my tentacool!" ...anyone get the reference? No?

[@musicf3b]

Ellen, use lamp! *it's super effective*

[@salenstormwing]

I can't wait for Outside Xbox to review that lamp and other improvised weaponry.

[@recklessrex]

Andy fainted

[@NightyKnight2]

Lamp gave Andy a Black spot. Pirates are now after Andy.

[@slewone4905]

Ellen, next time, aim for the head. Oh wait, she probably can't reach it, even when Andy is sitting down.

[@nickbricks7187]

Lol

[@JaelaOrdo]

Ellen getting freaked out by all the Pokémon yet having the screams of dead children as her text tone is somehow adorable. And scary.

[@OddballKitten]

1. Gorebyss- "Really?" 2. Lampent- "Oooooh..." "Is that a lamp?" "I hate it's eyes. Hate the eyes." 3. Golbat- "Worst thing I ever seen." "Ooh, this is gonna be about blood." 4. Drampa- "Yaaaay!" "Something, weird's happening there." 5. Phantump- "OMG that tree has a face IT HAS A FACE!" "I feel sick." 6. Smoochum- "What's-" "I don't wanna know." "What?" 7. Scizor- "It's horrible is what it is." "It looks pretty angry I don't like it." "These games are for kids."

[@kingfrenchfries3610]

@UmbreonShines AMV & Drawing im 10

@SylveonTale 9-10 yrs old girl

[@animalloverlily7791]

Gurl I’m litarly 19 oof 😓

[@sangonomiyakokomi5764]

@_-*PixelBlack*-_ What is a 7 year old doing on youtube?

[@sangonomiyakokomi5764]

@_-*PixelBlack*-_ Uhm, the only thing bothering me is that someone so young is on youtube ;-;

[@may2rose]

With the pokemon world, phanstumps backstory makes sense seeing as Ash left home at age 10. And there are many children that aren't as lucky as Ash to find friends to travel with and end up travelling alone.

[@chrisdemusis6673]

I absolutely lost it at the gorebyss bit. Luke's face, the font, the underlying metal was just so brilliant!

[@digitool5944]

I love how over the top some dex entries are, Rhypherior is also a pretty fun one, it likes to fire rocks from its arm canons, sometimes they are Geodude

[@checkm88]

The best part about these are the "who's that pokemon???" segments. I hope they keep these up every now and then

[@cyberperson53]

"And here you were thinking there probably aren't any Pokemon that will stab you with their mouth and drink you with their insides." Hah, joke's on you OxTra, since you started doing this series I've been able to think of nothing else.

[@Storyman09]

Same.

[@Sableagle]

A sea-dragon / mermaid / mosquito? That's not what bothers me. No. What bothers me is that I can't meet *any* of the Pokethings in these lists without them screaming in terror and running away, begging strangers to keep me away from them. I'm getting reluctant to look in a mirror.

[@LNickTheGreat]

"While you try to shake the image of Goreybss's pointed mouth sliding into your abdomen to drain the liquids that keep you alive" This is the most amazingly chilling sentence. Good work OXtra.

[@lastmangaming2287]

I knew she’d use that ringtone as soon as she brought it up!

[@airgod231]

i want to do that but i dont know how

[@johnoneil9188]

Those possessed stumps probably all come from bug trainers who lost and just could not bring themselves to go home out of embarassement.

[@baconlovingvampire4523]

Guzma isn't in a stump

[@poowoooowoo8957]

So the player is responsible? Man, Pokémon is getting better and better!

[@thalys1015]

7:13 Phantump: *Is Innocent and wasnt souls of death children* Pokedex:Im gonna end this Pokémon's Happiness Me:Thats it im moving to life with Espurr!

[@beedieessem6446]

God, Ellen is the best. Also I love how in USUM they just didn't care anymore and put in a bunch of traumatizing info on some otherwise okay pokemon.

[@Stephen-Fox]

Pokemon's issue with children getting lost in the woods and dying might be because of how many pokemon's dex entries come down to 'this pokemon kidnaps and/or murders children'

[@chrisschoenthaler5184]

Gizensha Fox Also, the fact that every 10 year old is sent on a dangerous journey to seek out those Pokémon.

[@matthiaslener2763]

I dont know what you mean. Look at this cute purple balloon I found, with a birds face and two strings, it can even speak although it only says driftloon.

[@matrixgachaverse1100]

@@matthiaslener2763 run man! R U N ! ! !

[@tyrant-den884]

In response to Phantump: "I sent my eldest out to pick berries in the woods." "In the woods! What kind of mother are you?" "We all live in one room houses, I am just being practical."

[@tylerkahle332]

Wait, do these pokedex entries mean that actual HUMAN SOULS are measurable, flammable, and scientificable capable of BEING CAPTURED?!?! Is this what Prof. Oak studdies?

[@2013Fangirl]

Tyler Kahle Don't tell Flowey.

[@shiroyasha7324]

Tyler Kahle nope :p

[@stevenn1940]

Someone hasn't read about honedge yet..

[@Storyman09]

I like to think Lampent’s “burning of souls” is simply the process that sends the souls of the dead onward to the afterlife, a byproduct of which being the energy that keeps its fire burning. But then, I may be kind of biased as I actually really like that Pokemon line.

[@saiyanfang1047]

Storyman you fool the pokémon afterlife is becoming a pokémon

[@zzzzzVakhzzzzz]

It's not weird that Ellen knows so much about forest survival, though cries of dead children as a text message makes you think, what she does there?

[@ilicia_08]

”Oceanography is the devils work” 😂😂😂

[@fallenaasimar3878]

I Definitely would not like to have my soul stuck up a tree stump. It would hurt. I would not be oak-key.

You're quite right. It wood hurt.

[@fallenaasimar3878]

drakocarrion You're a genius my friend.

[@WeTalkAboutSpaceships]

I just love the reactions to all of these, I feel old seeing new school Pokémon I’m not familiar with. “What is THAT?”

[@kazetoame]

“You sweet summer child,” summons up everything

[@Znijik]

I've always found Ellen to be delightfully blessed with height. ... No Drampa's gonna get me.

[@clockworktri]

The lamp gag is one of my very favorite jokes and sometimes I come re-watch this just for that.

[@Stardust_Road]

Similar to Gorebyss, Beautifly’s Dex entry from Platinum doesn’t make it seem terribly friendly either :/ “Despite its looks, it is aggressive. It jabs with its long, thin mouth if disturbed while collecting pollen.”

[@NeoSaturos123]

Only if it's disturbed. Beautifly are calm if left alone.

[@polnapanties]

I love you guys' voices and personalities! I genuinely enjoy each video you make :3 That tree has a face!

[@captainzac24]

Won't go near a hospital well you're in luck Dr Andy's Horrortorium is now accepting patients from outside oxboxford (mainly cos there's no one left in oxboxford)

[@ectoOLDACC]

I realised that they used the lavender town music at around 1:13. Amazing touch.

[@AngelBeatYunara]

What are you talking about? These Pokemon are cute! *muffled screaming in the background* Yes, very cute...

[@Alsebra]

"I feel sick." I kinda do too...but I've always loved the line. As an aside, gotta love Andy's shirt!

[@thegoshdarnedbatman5257]

Is Ellen waiting just off screen with weapons in all videos? Menacing Luke with a hatchet, knocking out zombie Luke, attacking Andy with a lamp. Ellen is ever vigilant.

[@cakraparindra4659]

I came back here from the part 3.. Never realized that it'd be 5 years apart

[@vongills]

Ellen has given me a great idea. Gastrodon's cry would be a great text tone.

[@ajm7210]

Can these creepy backstory episodes be an oft recurring thing? The team's terrified "Who's that Pokemon" reactions make my entire week!

[@fafnirthelagaardianhaxorus9862]

Same!

[@CaptainRed1000]

In the cases of Pokemon like Phantump, I imagine that their dex entries describe how the Pokemon in question first came into existence, and that the continued existence in the modern day is MOSTLY a result of a mommy Pokemon and a daddy Pokemon loving each other very much.

[@mkandiah7246]

Y’all have such a dark sense of humour. You have earned my subscription good sirs and ma’ams. 😂

[@JanAside]

Darkrai Literally killed someone in Pokemon black and white and tried killing someone in platinum Edit yes I am aware that poor darkrai cannot control his power but it's still kinda creepy

[@oliree4086]

I used to really like that one tho...xD he looked cool

[@shiroyasha7324]

john doe but he was so cool tho :D

But have you seen the pokemon movie rise of darkrai? It was a hero in that film.

[@MikeSmith-kk9er]

[@mynameskris]

*I think you missed one: Slyveon.* _Pokémon Sun:_ Its ribbonlike feelers give off an aura that weakens hostility in its prey, causing them to let down their guard. Then it attacks. _Pokémon Moon:_ When this Pokémon sights its prey, it swirls its ribbonlike feelers as a distraction. A moment later, it pounces.

[@ifyourereplyingtomycomment1941]

*OOF*

[@LAnimeMaster]

Driftloon will always be the creepiest to me. Driftloon: You'll float too! You'll float too!

[@fafnirthelagaardianhaxorus9862]

Ugh that brings back memories of when I watched IT....

[@saiyanfang1047]

What it doesn't tell you about drifloon is that it's so tiny it never actually manages to do it it can't pull it off it's too small that is from the other game

[@fafnirthelagaardianhaxorus9862]

True... But then it evolves into drifblim..........you'll definitely float too "never to be seen again"

[@LAnimeMaster]

I'm pretty sure it's Penniwise's pokemon of choice.

[@Sableagle]

Memories of being very, very disappointed, then? Fans of the original Battlestar Galactica, from back when it was set in the future, may recall a larger drifting aerial menace, like methane-filled jellyfish. What's worse than a silent, flying, venomous jellyfish? Why, a thousand silent, flying, venomous jellyfish actively hunting you in a big swarm, of course!

[@jokerhalo1]

You know what's even worse about Phantump? When you have two fight each other it is actually two dead kids being forced to fight

[@MrRafalel]

Can we have a "Who's that pokemon" for ALL of them?... pretty please?

[@clintbrew]

or a pokerap featuring all 720 pokemon

[@improvplus5056]

My friends who are obsessed with Pokémon said I remind them of Drampa. This is how I found out what that meant. I agree with them!

[@chosha3296]

...I actually like the Ghost types, despite the Pokedex entries being creepy. I think Mimikyu is my favorite - I want to hug it and love it so it never gets sad again. (I think a lot of the Ghost types aren't creepy so much as sad or lonely. Makes me want to keep them safe.) Thank you for the videos, though! Always enjoy your content, especially with the humor you put in each one. :)

[@Obsessor23]

I knew about Gorebyss' liquid draining thing for a while, but I only just realized that, not only is its name a pun on "gorgeous" with the word "abyss" but the first half is supposed to be "gore" as in goring people with its mouth

[@devildogdingman1]

You guys have the coolest job 😍. Also, Ellen's ok with having a dead child's scream as a ringtone...that's pretty epic! Insanity wolf would be proud

[@MrRafalel]

9:05 so Bud Fensler is still in charge I see... good to see a good agent get the job he deserves

[@kqyxii]

[@ZacTheLit]

Sean Rea the world is a better place now

[@MidoriOfTheShuinsen]

Phantump is adorable though

[@carsonkaucher6982]

I like how the pokemon games had to say that the pokemon "fainted" when you beat them as to not scare parents, but then there's stuff like this.

[@DeathBaronZ]

If all these codex are accurate there is a large mortality rate in Pokémon. I don’t want to live in the Pokémon world any more. A walk in the woods is less dangerous here.

[@LtBasil]

It says something about how dangerous the Pokemon world is, when you'd rather deal with an angry raccoon or a rutting buck than any of those pocket monsters.

[@warriorcat_010galaxt4]

The music of lavender town in the background is creepy... *lavender town is creepy itself*

[@madnessarcade7447]

1:41 beautiful yet cruel like every mean girl ever

[@The_CeeGee]

They're all super adorable to me. It's not their fault they exist in a dystopian war-torn nightmare world.

[@desmolboi4049]

Guys, there's this comic and here's how it goes: A bannet (the abandoned doll Pokémon) is looking for its owner, then meets a phamtump. Turns out that phantump was the owner (a little kid) of that bannet that was looking for his Doll in the forest and died there. If you couldn't tell, they lived happily ever after.

[@henrylawrence6753]

Why must you draw us in with your magical vocal cords and then terrify us with even more creepy pokemon.

[@gearssmith4951]

“How much damage can a lamp possibly do?” DERANGED SCREAMS I can’t stop laughing this video is great

[@FinalPharaoh83]

Four words, "Mega Evolution Dex Entries". Scizor is F**KING MELTING!

[@MetabolicSpore0]

'GOREBYSS' The new metal album from 'Luke and the Flamingos'.😬

[@AloneTheorist]

Phantump gets worse in scarlet and violet, it's whole thing of being born from death gets expanded, it now no longer plays pranks on passers by but instead tries to turn others into friends - most likely more of its kind. Oh and it's stump is now a hat worn by a full blown child ghost. Do not shiny hunt this thing knowing that every non shiny you beat to make a shiny appear is essentially a person dying a second time. Honestly why do Nintendo make the cute Pokémon this way?

[@dekkuboboo8486]

what about primeape? he dies because he gets so angry im glad my suggestion got onto this list (the lampent one)

[@Storyman09]

dekkubo boo Lampent’s cool.

[@dekkuboboo8486]

and also hot (if you know what i mean)

[@chakirreeves539]

Gore and abyss = Gorebyss The pokedex has been warning us from the start

[@blackvial]

I thought Jane would have that pokemon's cry as a text alert

[@thundercookie3214]

I thought we already established that Ellen is being prepped to become Jane's right-hand minion. Makes total sense to me, since all that work has to start paying off sometime.

[@patrickracer43]

Actually, her ringtone is Ellen crying after screwing up a Tomb Raider puzzle

[@Noblepeanut]

CLEARLY THERE ARE ALWAYS THE BEST THINGS GOING ON WITH GOLBAT, Golbat is a precious Pokemon that only ever wanted someone to love!

[@afiyerolovingstarkid]

I find it ironic that Luke has on a shirt with fire when talking about Drampa

[@Cortanis001]

I want to say that half the child death ones have at least a heavy part to do with the fact that parents in the Pokemon world kick their kids out at 10 to go travel the world with very little supplies and training. Imagine how many 10 year olds you've ever known that could last a week out camping alone and now think about the fact that those same kids are expected to do so for years in many cases.

[@Omegax52]

So, if you make the cry of Phantump your text alert does that make your mobile a Phonetump?

[@realcookiemon]

thanks you completely destroyed my day with these creepy pokemons :)

[@thundercookie3214]

Well, if I were to take the colour of the subscribe orb and try to match it with a colour from the Pokemon Type Chart, I would be led to believe that it is - in fact - a Ghost type. However, not all Ghost type Pokemon are haunted, right? ... Right?!

[@blarg2429]

Actually, very few Ghost-types are haunted. Rather, _they_ do the haunting. :D

[@gothnerd887]

7:10 reminds me of an old English ghost story where three children are left in the forest so their uncle can gain their inheritance. The children die but their spirits are eternally searching for their uncle.

[@StrikingGamesYouTubeIsTheBest]

In all fairness, the souls of the dead and floating lights go hand in hand in more than just Pokémon. Will-o’-the-Wisps, anyone? Or how about jack-o-lanterns?

[@stephanie41115]

Andy talking about Combat, "Oh is this going to be about blood?" Made me literally LOL.

[@EmikaSandra]

Can you guys do another one of these videos? Here are some creepy Pokedex entries I found. Weepinbell: "When hungry, it swallows anything that moves. Its hapless prey is melted inside by strong acids." (Yellow) "If its prey is bigger than its mouth, it slices up the victim with sharp leaves, then eats every morsel." (Silver) And if you thought Weepinbell was bad, then you won't EVER want to evolve it. Victreebel: "Said to live in huge colonies deep in jungles, although no one has ever returned from there." (Red/Blue) "Lures prey with the sweet aroma of honey. Swallowed whole, the prey is melted in a day, bones and all." (Yellow) "Acid that has dissolved many prey becomes sweeter, making it even more effective at attracting prey." (Gold) "This horrifying plant Pokémon attracts prey with aromatic honey, then melts them in its mouth." (Silver) "Once ingested into this Pokémon's body, even the hardest object will melt into nothing." (Crystal) "The long vine extending from its head is waved about as if it were a living thing to attract prey. When an unsuspecting victim approaches, it is swallowed whole." (Emerald)

[@sohamkar876]

[@pinksouplvr]

[@catew5219]

I have no idea why, but every time Luke said Gorebyss I giggled... Its late, maybe I should go to sleep now and try not dream of all the creepy Pokemon.

Still no Shedinja? The completely immobile dead husk of a Pokemon that if you look into the crack on its back, you lose your spirit? Oh, and it doesn't breathe either.

[@fukkthisnewupdate8882]

Solar Dragon also, Hypno steals children, Parasect is essentially a zombie, and that Giga Beast that eats everything is terrifying too.

[@captainaloof7385]

Lampent waits outside hospitals waiting for people to take a bad turn to absorb the life energy - The pokedex entry in the Pokémon deluxe book

[@jonathanewing652]

Well, in Pokémon, mom's let their children go on adventure across the entire region when they're TEN!!! So we can't really be surprised by the child death-rate in the forest.

[@earthlybump4843]

Ellen's pokedex entry would say that she enjoys the sound of children's souls trapped in trees

[@brentage5000]

Andy should be grateful Ellen stopped when she did. If he'd started badmouthing Kingdoms of Amalur, we'd be looking for a new stealth expert

[@firetail227]

Love the lavender town music btw. Nice addition.

[@luketsimmons1982]

And there's me thinking the Slender and PT let's plays were the creepiest thing on these channels... next it'll be Kirby horror stories, or the dark origins of the Boos (Boo Diddly) in Mario..

[@psykeee2049]

"Omg that tree has a face! It has a face!!" That cracked me up 😂

[@tauntauncity7651]

Now, I do not want to just give lip service to how creepy these things are but it bugs me that the Pokemon creators come up with such creepy ideas. Something fishy is going on over there and I am simply stumpped at how they drag-on with these disturbing creations. I appreciate the Oxtra team for shedding some light on the subject.

[@cliftonl.2353]

Tauntaun City Boooooo :)

[@shiroyasha7324]

Tauntaun City yup :p

[@anna-flora999]

I would guess most of the creepy things are not originally from the Pokémon team. Myths, legends, fariytales and the like are really creepy most of the times before Disney gets it's hands on them. For example, i can think of almost no German fairytale i read as a child that didn't evolve murder or something similar awful

[@Ilikecatsismychannelname]

Clearly the writing team at Game Freak secretly want to be horror writers and their self control has been steadily waning ever since Gen 1. Eventually we will be getting Pokedex entries that read like a slasher film script or a Lovecrafian pulp horror novel. I mean, the Ghost type entries are already this. I mean ALL of them will be like that. Then the games themselves will have a horror themed setting and ultimately Pokemon will be the new Resident Evil type series. We should all be very afraid. ....Either that, or they are getting increasingly bored and coming up with twisted Dex entries is how the writers are keeping themselves amused. Considering the age of the franchise, boredom is a very real possibility. Go with whichever of these possible explanations you feel is more likely....or more amusing. ....Personally, I like the first one.

[@mikeluna2026]

Well, I think the original creator imagined the series more this way, where Pokemon act like, well... normal animals in the wild. Not some vegan pets the anime series makes them out to be. I think the original creator said he had envisioned the Pokemon world more like the first few arcs of the Pokemon Adventures manga than what the game became in the end (the manga does become a little more kiddy safe after a while though).

[@evanescene9536]

i was hoping that spoink was on the list because for the ruby pokedex entries says -- Spoink bounces around on its tail. The shock of its bouncing makes its heart pump. As a result, this Pokémon cannot afford to stop bouncing - if it stops, its heart will stop.

[@jaishubhjyani]

Scizor: I choose *Andy*

Another one you guys missed is Xatu: He can look into future and stands completey still because he is paralysed by visions of the future.

"And here you were thinking there probably aren't any Pokemon that will stab you with their mouth and drink you with their insides." Yeah, Gorebyss isn't the only one. Heatmor is even worse, especially if you are a Durant - they will burn through a Durant's steel body and suck out all the insides. You've got being melted and drained of liquids with that one. There's also Beautifly. "It has an aggressive nature. It stabs prey with its long, narrow mouth to drain the prey's fluids." (Diamond, and almost half of the other pokedex entries on this bug pokemon). Its otherwise liked and talks about drinking pollen, with one entry recommending setting up a flowerpot near a window in order to have them visit.

Will there any more of these? I mean, half of the Pokemon have very creepy Pokedex entries.

How dangerous can a lamp be? Old Chicago: Am I a joke to you all?
