Dhelmise: The Coolest Pokémon You Never Caught

[@Jetfox967]

We need a ghost ship Pokémon and it could have a symbiotic relationship with Dhelmise just like Mantine and Remoraid.

[@GatorEX]

Ohh, that would be sick

[@gusfring69420]

A ghost ship,haha.

[@THGMR-ox7sd]

Could be a gigantamax form of dhelmise and I would totally be on board for a ghost ship. I don’t care if people hate the dynamax/gigantamax mechanic because I just like gigantamax designs more than mega evolution designs.

[@Ridlay_]

Oooooh

[@ugliestmanalive3116]

I bet it would have like 150 attack or smth

[@starspectrum7302]

I’ve always loved Dhelmise’s design and how all of its details imply certain facial features. Like the compass eye, part of the anchor looking like a nose, the angry eyebrows, moustache and beard made out of seaweed, and how the parts that don’t have seaweed on them look like sharp teeth. It’s such a unique way to give a Pokemon something that resembles a face without actually giving it a real face! I really can’t think of any other inanimate object mon that does that!

[@sasorizanotsuki7081]

Exactly! I love this!

[@firewulfz]

And the “eye” without a compass looks like an eyepatch

[@andrewramlall3560]

I really do like the compass eye, it really feels like a creepy eye slit

[@shako4907]

anchor also looks like a devilish smile

[@bugjams]

It's also worth noting the pokemon itself is technically _just_ the seaweed. The rest of it isn't alive. It's literally just sentient seaweed.

[@TamValleyProductions]

Gotta love repping Dhelmise. Have to admit, one of my favorite Pokémon that I’ve actually never used. Just the design and concept alone is enough to get me hooked. Great video!

[@GatorEX]

“Hooked,” hah

[@itstheman0nthem00n]

Dhelmise is actually really good. A moveset of shadow claw power whip anchor shot and rock slide for coverage or liquidation for the water aesthetic is a great moveset if you want to use it in sword and shield. For Alola I would recommend using the same first 3 moves but just use rock slide as it doesn’t get liquidation in Gen 7 which means it doesn’t have any good physical water moves

[@madrelepre1331]

When I was searching for Dhelmise so I could complete the Alola Regional Dex in the original Sun and Moon. I not only found it quite easily but it was literally my first shiny ever! I will never forget my disbelief of seeing that red anchor in front of me.

[@summeroliver1451]

Such an amazing shiny to

[@dragongust3286]

Such a unique Pokémon, I do feel that we were cheated a bit with Dhelmise not having a Gigantamax form at least in Sword and Shield, let's be honest, it had HUGE potential for a Gigantamax form! Like a giant haunted pirate ship overflowing with seaweed and possibly having designs on its hull resembling a face like the design of normal Dhelmise!

[@TheAstrobiologistOW]

I absolutely LOVE this thing. Such an odd design with a surprisingly viable stat spread and move pool. Definitely one of my favorite Pokémon.

[@tuxedobird]

There’s something I love about faceless Pokémon like Dhelmise and Staryu. The Pokémon company always does a good job of giving them a personality that keeps them feeling alive while still feeling very different

[@BlackTungsten]

I have nothing but love for Dhelmise! I went into a tournament at Otakon last year (2021) with an all-ghost team (dressed as a Ghostbuster). Made it to the quarter finals. The triple-STAB was very nice, but the biggest edge I had with Dhelmise was the almost universal reaction from my opponents saying "I forgot this Pokemon existed"

[@grunkleg.2934]

Dhelmise is also connected with my personal favorite Pokemon, that being Dragalge (and Skrelp's there too), in that they apparently get along with each other. Sorta makes sense when you consider both have seaweed motifs, both are tied with shipwrecks, and both go after large targets, be they tankers or Wailord. Who's to say that a shipwreck that created Dhelmise wasn't caused by a Dragalge defending its territory? We literally see them living in sunken ships in the anime, that's the perfect place to make a new ghost seaweed anchor friend. Here's hoping both make it back into S/V. We saw Clauncher in the first trailer

[@l.o.gremastered5812]

Dhelmise one of the most underrated pokemon out there. I personally love it though.

[@GatorEX]

Yeah, it definitely didn’t get as much attention as some of the other Gen 7 Pokémon. But I am glad it stayed in the Pokédex for Sword and Shield.

[@MangoOverHeaven]

Dhelmise became a permanent part of my party as soon as I got him, I didn't even realize how rare he seemed to be

[@LaprasTrainerLiam]

I actually caught one in Gen 7 myself! It was VERY difficult to find, like you said, but SO worth it though!

[@slimeplayz164]

I caught one aswell to complete the dex didnt take so long cause I had pokemon in my party with the suction cup abilty I presume that's what it's called I forgot I was using an octillery

[@LaprasTrainerLiam]

@@slimeplayz164 I never knew that... 😳

[@vince3736]

i didn't know it was rare, on my first playthrough i encounter a lot of those on the first destination on the last island

[@shytendeakatamanoir9740]

I planned on having one from the start and specifically didn't picked Decidueye.

[@LaprasTrainerLiam]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[@considerthetubes2864]

Dhelmise is by far my personal favorite Pokémon. The way the seaweed wrapped around the anchor vaguely creates the illusion of a sinister smile, how it uses it’s compass eye to emote, and the fact it’s shiny represents red algae! For those wanting to use it in competitive, here’s my setup; Phantom Force Power Whip Anchor Shot Rapid Spin Brave nature Assault Vest Have fun plunderin me mateys!

[@Glory2Snowstar]

Dhelmise fills out so many cool niches both design-wise and gameplay-wise, I love seeing it get some recognition! Hard to believe that we didn't have a super pirate-feeling Pokemon until Gen 7, especially considering Team Aqua's existence. Just the concept of this big spooky ghost face made of kelp wrapped around a shipwreck is peak monster design, and I love all of their weird animations! I remember having no clue what it even was when I first saw a tiny leaked image of it, I... actually thought it was some haunted Mexican painting. Which would make for a fun Regional Dhelmise, now that I think about it, with the seaweed clinging onto the ship's riches rather than their tools. Here's to hoping they return for Scarlet and Violet, they canonically have good terms with Skrelp and considering Clauncher got in, there's hope! Dhelmise feels PERFECT for Spain.

[@DunkaccinoThe3nd]

People who hate object pokemon are JUST 100% complete Dingus types fr

[@RickyRiceB]

I remember I got a strategy guide for sun/moon on the same day I got moon, i looked to the back of the pokedex and finally saw a Pokémon I didn’t see in the countless trailers, and was instantly awestruck. I spent the entire game wondering when I would get to “seafolk village” and when I got there I spent forever trying to find the fishing spot. Adored this thing since then.

[@markosmywords9202]

What I love about Dhelmise is its surprisingly vast movepool. It can excel in a utility, tank, or combat role. Examples of its more useful moves: - Anchor Shot can trap in Pokemon that are easy to setup on. - Coverage moves like Aerial Ace, Brick Break, Earthquake, Knock Off, Liquidation, and Rock Slide - Swords Dance and Growth for setup - Synthesis for recovery - Rapid Spin and Toxic for utility - Powerful STAB moves in Poltergeist, Phantom Force, Grassy Glide and Power Whip - Solar Blade and Steel Roller too I guess What more could you ask for?

[@Hexra_]

I always love seeing inanimate object Pokemon in the games. -Chandelure is so cool, they added it to Pokken. -Aegislash? No introduction needed. -I have a Baltoy plushie and I pray every night to see it move on its own. -And don't even get me started on how adorable all the Rotoms are.

[@justjordyn6729]

I thought it was cool, and I thinks it’s surprising that it’s a low encounter rate. I found one and caught it back in Moon, it wasn’t very difficult. But I really love the design

[@GatorEX]

Yeah, 1 percent is definitely possible, even on the first try. But I think it’s neat they made it a little rarer than other Pokémon.

[@Lucrei.]

I needed at least 100 attempts to find one, consider yourself blessed lol

[@celestee2264]

You said it ain't have a face, but I only realized with this video that Dhelmise actually (and vaguely) looks like a smiling pirate face, with seaweed working as eyebrows (over the compass eyes) and as a beard in the lower part of the anchor body! I think it's awesome how most of your videos are about things no one else gives a second though about. Keep up the good work!

[@V.U.4six]

Don’t forget the middle knobby part resembles a nose!

[@endermenon4836]

The seaweed is the actual Pokemon tho The anchor is just something it attached itself to

[@phial7616]

its worth noting that having only one wobbly compass as a form of eye also doubles as having a pirate eyepatch motif its a design that keeps on giving

00:49 "Could only exist in Alola" Pacifidlog Town: Am I a joke to you?

[@EnriqueLaberintico]

If we really want to give it three types, make it so Steelworker also makes it immune to sandstorm damage and poisoning. All the perks of the Steel type.

[@ShayTheValiant]

I actually came up with a Pokémon that is somewhat related to Dhelmise. - Phan-O-War, the Ocean Drifter Pokémon. - Water/Ghost. - Based on the Portuguese man-o-war jelly fish, 18th century man-o-war warships, the mythical kraken, and the concept of ghost ships. - Think of it as a ghost kraken living inside a shipwreck that it brought up to the surface. It just looks like a ship sailing past, but it hides its long tentacles beneath the water's surface, waiting to attack anything that comes close, just like how a man-o-war jellyfish would. - Anywhere it goes, Dhelmise are sure to be found close by. - Ability is Toxic Tendrils, which gives STAB to Poison moves, much like Dhelmise's Steelworker.

[@JDAWG2111]

That is one of the best Pokémon concepts I've heard. Bravo!

[@Cosmicdaydreamer]

Maybe this pokémon and dhelmise can have some sort of rivarly, like zangoose and seviper, cuz one is a beast that sinks ships while the other was born from someone that died on a sinking ship

[@ShayTheValiant]

@@Cosmicdaydreamer I've always thought of them as two spirit taking on different forms. One possesses the seaweed growing on a shipwreck and takes the steering wheel and anchor, and the other possesses the shipwreck itself.

[@Cosmicdaydreamer]

@@ShayTheValiant hm cool

[@skullerclawerbandicoot7966]

@@ShayTheValiant Sooo a Shelmet & Karrablast situation?

[@wf6683]

When you mentioned Dhelmise doesn’t have a face suddenly its implied face really stuck out to me and it’s terrifying. Obviously the compass on the wheel is supposed to stand in as an eye, but the way the seaweed is wrapped around the curved part of the anchor looks like sharp teeth in a creepy smile. Such a great pokemon design

[@bmprimer7809]

love how its "eye" is just a compass on the steering wheel

[@Brandon_Hardie]

Dhelmise has always been one of my favorite pokemon, and I love most of the ghost pokemon designs in general.

[@GumCow]

I remember fishing for this guy in pokemon sun for my dex. It's also one of the few pokemon encounters where I remember the date, where I was, and the look of the place I was in. For that alone it's one of my favorites.

[@Daytonious]

I ended up spending a few hours fishing for it after reading a piece of dialogue mentioning a rare Pokemon. I found it, accidentally killed it, and kept grinding for it. I got a shiny Magikarp before I found another. I still have it, it was my 2nd or 3rd ever shiny, the previous ones ALSO being Magikarp! I only have this one left unfortunately. This was nostalgic, thanks!

[@hlewis5217]

Dhemise, my ABSOLUTE favourite mon of ALL times. Definitely underrated and deserves more recognition. I have bred and used many in my Alola walkthroughs, never disappoints. Dhemise >>>>> Decidueye. Moveset with Power Whip, Anchor Shot, Earthquake and Phantom Force works like a charm.

[@CrazedKasaJizo]

I remember using Dhelmise in the Sword rental trick room team for the battle tower and it was the main reason I started with trick room teams. Been using it on almost every trick room team and still love giving it iron ball for extra gyroball damage and against other trick room teams

[@SkibidiDogRizz]

Chatot out here looking real sad for not being considered a pirate mon

[@TrueLucinova]

I've always loved Dhelmise, ever since I caught one on my first run of Moon; it's got such a cool design

[@unownenjoyer4662]

When I first heard about Dhelmise I spent three hours fishing for him until I finally got him. Good times

[@cartergamegeek]

This thing is a really good Trick room pick as it has good bulk. I found a lot of value in these as surprise Trick Room sets.

[@Glory2Snowstar]

Plus, STAB Gyro Ball without the Ground weakness!

[@cartergamegeek]

@@Glory2Snowstar Or any Steel move you feel like using as it has a good few it can hit things with.

[@xhomiegreninjax137]

A cool thing about Dhelmise is that the seaweed pattern on the anchor and the sides of the wheel look like a face with a broken eye

[@xavierlehew6746]

Cool video! Gave me a newfound respect and interest in this mon. I think Ill make some more showdown teams making use of Dhelmise.

[@rjs4176]

Ah yes, Dhelmise. My 2nd favourite Grass/Ghost type. Can you tell what my number 1 favourite is? Hehe... While Dhelmise might not be as anthropomorphized as some other objectmon it certainly does still have a face. It's just less deliberate and on the nose so it doesn't distract from its large and intimidating appearance. Making something less emotable to humans is another way to make it more unsettling, perfect for a Ghost type. The seaweed on its front that makes a 5-pointed star has two longer strands on the sides that make large eyebrows. The tangled up coil in the center that connects the wheel and the anchor points outwards appearing like a pointed nose. The rips and tears in the seaweed along the curved bottom of the anchor leaves open spaces that make them look like sharp, scary jaws. When you can point out this many great, little details from just one design you just KNOW you got a special case on your hands! I also just love that it hunts Wailord. I can only imagine what that must have been like in the Game Freak office! GF: Okay, we need to make a pokémon that hunts Wailord, the largest non-legendary pokémon ever. Somebody: Ghost anchor. GF: ... GF: Wait.. wha- Somebody: *_GHOST ANCHOR._* GF: You know what? Sure. We need more ingenuity like Dhelmise in the world. I just know that gen 9 will have some real goodies!

[@TheBrawler456]

Another issue with Dhelmise, that I'm surprised you didn't mention, is the fact that it was VERY hard to slot into a team, as one of the starters shared that Grass/Ghost typing. Unless you really liked Dhelmise, or the Ghost typing, it often got overlooked if the team went with Rowlet as the starter.

[@DDViking]

My favorite gen 7 pokemon by far. I shiny hunted one in Sw/Sh and it looks so amazing!

[@GatorEX]

Yes, the bright red seaweed on the Shiny looks so cool!

[@shytendeakatamanoir9740]

Dhelmise is the reason I didn't chose Rowlet for my first venture to Alola, actually.

[@Oscar92839]

I literally didnt even know this existed

[@davewhispers7720]

If Dhelmise lore was a captain going down with their ship is actually a cool way how each piece symbolises what happened. The steer symbolizes the captain, the anchor showing he stayed and went down with the ship and the seaweed chain showing time being under there and trapped by the event.

[@gamesux420]

Dhelmise is one of my fave mon I think its interesting how back in the day when pokemon was a new concept noone cared about stuff like "this object pokemon wouldnt make sense to realistically exist" but now its just become such a constant thing that stuff like this becomes on wether or not people like some mon and some dont. I wish everyone just thought about pokemon more simple again.

[@actingapple3607]

When I first saw Dhelmise I thought it looked like a really cool *water steel* type, and was super upset when I realised it wasn’t a water type. This realisation was coming of the back of realising that Crabrawler also wasn’t a water type. I was playing the game for the first time and restricting myself to water type Pokémon so both of these revelations really ruined how I thought of them, even if Dhelmise is still a sick looking pokemon

[@CaptainObliviousV]

I love Dhelmise! In my first play through of Sun I had heard of it through the leaks and made sure to fish one up the first chance I got. I even used my Lure Ball on it.

[@Raqdolll]

I always forget Dhelmise's typing. "Okay so it was probably a ghost right? And... Steel? Or grass?.. water?! I mean you fish it out it has something to do with water, right?"

[@dtworeselling6104]

I got my copy of Pokémon Sun when I was like 7. I recently looked through my Pokédex and found out I’ve actually encountered Dhelmise before, but never caught it. Unbeknownst to my 7 year old self, I encountered and ran away from or killed one of the rarest Pokémon in Pokémon Sun. Dang I feel dumb now lol.

[@obanxMolly1991]

Looking at its name: the wordplay with 'Demise' really ties your theory about drowned captains/pirates together pretty well.

[@ThrE3-GeS]

Im y the only one that sees a face in dhelmise? It has clearly two eyes, one open and one closed. The center of the wheel is his nose and the ancer is his mouth. And the way how the sea grass is on the ancer it looks like it has even teeth, im speaking of the brown triangled shapes on the ancer. 2 upper teeth and 4 in a row down below. Anyone with me?

[@discodog4582]

dhelmise is such an underrated pokemon and i thought it was so cool ever since I first found out about it. I feel a bit sad that it deals with the alola curse of being extremely difficult to find because i think that’s a big part of why no one remembers it 😔

[@qwerty_7281]

I remember catching a Dhelmise the first time I ever fished in sun and moon. I then Looked up it’s encounter rate and was shocked to realize that it was a 1% hands encounter

Oh now I get it. You find the anchor Pokémon where there's a bunch of boats.

[@AlcheMelody]

one minor detail that I love so much is it's "Eye" is a Compass. during it's idle animation when it just rocks left and right you can see the Compass move slightly more than the anchor itself, and I really like that for some reason

[@AlcheMelody]

you can see what I mean at 3:05

[@mrNECROMON]

I never realized how rare he was until years after playing moon but I did knew that people would give me better pokemons for him so I started farming him (and golisopod) to the point I had many shiny legendarys from different regions

[@shoenessperson]

One of my favorite ideas I have floating around is object-mon that are a similar object or set of objects. Dhelmise is a great idea to build off, shipwrecks are more than anchors and wheels. This idea started as an Aegislash made of two different things than a basic sword and shield. Two swords, a dagger and gauntlet, hook blades, a spear and lantern-shield, a short-sword and banner, etc.

[@Syrius_Li]

I love that the seaweed is placed in such a way that it looks like a "beard" and teeth

[@edgytoucan3444]

I just now realized it’s supposed to look like a spooky smile with fangs. I knew the compass was an eye but I never noticed the ‘mouth’ part.

[@RylixBlizzai]

i've always had a love for dhelmise but i've never had the chance to use it on a team due to the types already being covered by other pokemon i had but now i'm thinking that if by some miracle it makes it into 3 generations in a row with scarlet and violet i might just say screw it to all that coverage stuff and finally try adding it despite already having sprigatito and likely a new ghost type from the region given how i seem to always find at least one to love to death

[@ErisEntropy]

"alongside Salazzle, of course" That kinda caught me off guard. Never heard someone outright say it on KZbin lol

I was randomly fishing here and first try got the pokemon in the orignal sun and moon.its a nice pokemon

[@Snowstorm...]

Huh, I didn't know it was that rare. I caught it in the 10% spot on my first try in Sun and never thought twice about it. My team was already full too so I just left it in the box and never thought about it. I don't think I even fished there ever again

[@romaincastegnaro6072]

Same thing here, I went fishing in this city in my Sun playthrough as soon as I had the opportunity, and I guess I got lucky with that 1% cause it was my very first encounter, I caught it, and although I thought it was a pretty cool mon, and I love ghost and grass types, I picked decidueye as my starter so I never felt the need to use it, had no idea it was that rare tho, had I known that I probably would have benched the owl for a while to try and have fun with it.

[@TheMadSnorlax]

Love this concept for videos! I'll never forget my first Sun And Moon play through where I was randomly fishing and got a 1st encounter Dhelmise!

[@GodzillaFreak]

I remember encountering this on occasion as part of bottle cap fishing lol

[@PorkShark]

I just fished a single time and found a Dhelmise on the first encounter. I thought he was cool so I caught him and only later learned it was really rare.

[@JDragon]

Dhelmise was actually a new favorite for me. It's pretty common in Pixelmon and it was one of the choices I wanted to have for a team in my new US run. The only thing that I wish for it is that it should be obtainable earlier, or have some evolution line that is just pieces of a ship and then evolves into a sum of its parts or a big Galleon or something. It also probably should've been part steel. We just got Grass/Ghost types in gen 6 and now a starter of the same type, so a chunk of people wouldn't know or want to use him in a playthrough. The ability could be for one of the other types it would have, probably Grass. It probably would've been more popular if there were more ways to make it available and was a more rare Steel/Ghost. Still love 'em though.

[@holidayoreoreal]

I love the term “Skrunkos” so much. I’m adding this to my vocabulary now

[@Garrisonmanx]

Dhelmise is an awesome Pokemon and one of those designs and concepts that was truly just genius. Love its red shiny variant as well.

[@thesoupninja]

I’d posit that Dhelmise breeds when two Dhelmise get together to combine some of their extra pieces or find pieces from ships. One of them goes out and hunts for perfect parts while the other grafts some of its seaweed onto the parts. And as for the face: the compass is an eye, the anchor is a mouth, and the seaweed forms angry teeth

Its funny cause the first fishing spot I found when I was hunting for one had a dhelmise. I felt so bad for the ppl who had been looking for hours.

[@childeofepickness]

I spent hours trying to catch Dhelmise in Pokémon sword, and it’s a permanent member for my team, for sure. I just think it’s so cute, (in its own anchor-y way) and it’s color pallet is definitely one of my favorites. Plus I think it’s really cool how it’s basically a three type pokemon. But yeah, by far my favorite ghost type and maybe even my favorite Pokémon of all time. It’s super underrated.

[@drooprtroopr6969]

I always interpret those dex entries that talk about things becoming pokemon, like Kadabra, Banette, and Phantump as alternative ways for this pokemon to appear. The Abra line is a wild species but once a boy became a Kadabra. Toys can become Banettes, but some could just be "living" ghost types. Phantump could be just living will-o'-the-wisp stumps, and so on.

When I originally played through gen 7, I caught Dhelmise and without a second thought put it in the pc. It wasn’t until sword and shield when I explored using some more obscure mons on my team that I took the time to not only find a Dhelmise but shiny hunt it as well! All in all it’s a fantastic Pokémon design and I’m so happy that someone is giving it some recognition!

I have used a Dhelmise on a playthrough before, and it packed more ATK than the Bewear I took in that same game, while also being fairly tanky. The best part about him was the attack animation in which he would just spin himself around and smack the opponent with the anchor portion of him. Really fun pokemon to take for a casual run.

When Pokemon Sun and Moon came out I treated it as any other Pokemon game. I just collect all the badges and explore the newly unlocked areas then rinse and repeat. But for some reason when I reached the Battle Tree I actually felt like I wanted to get better at competitive battling. So I learned about nature's and EV's and IV's, I also learned that a good method for catching Dittos was to have the first ditto transform into your Munchlax that only knew recycle and to then give it a Leppa Berry so that way it could never kill itself and eventually you could get the perfect Ditto for breeding. That's where this steering wheel/anchor Pokemon comes in. It has a move where it could give a berry to Ditto, so I spent three days trying to fish it up all for the sake of my quest to breed the perfect army of competitive Pokemon.I I owe all my online victories to a floating anchor.

[@ShinSennju]

The first Dhelmise my girlfriend encountered in Sun & Moon was a shiny, and she almost killed it thinking it wasn't special since she was multitasking and didn't notice the shiny twinkle and didn't even know it wasn't the normal color. Very cool Pokemon, and the signature move has an awesome animation.
