EVERY Water Type Pokemon EXPLAINED! | Gnoggin

[@MegaPokefan97]

Suicune is water type due to the story behind the three legendary beasts, which are cats (Entei is a lion, Raikou a tiger and Suicune a leopard) Raikou represents the lightning bolt that struck the tower, Entei represents the flames that engulfed the tower and Suicune represents the rain that put it out

[@rontheauraknight9606]

Also Suicune can purify any pool of water... and it could be that it also follows the theory tht the three pokemon who died were Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon as the dog trio share the same typing as the OG eeveeloutions. also based on the logic hes using then wouldn't he insist Celesteela (who hes covered twice) be a grass type? Celesteela learns more grass moves than Steel/flying... yet hes ok pointing out its based on a myth... Hmmmm….

[@2ndbaroni]

they're dogs you know

[@dragoniraflameblade]

Wow, I never made the connection.

[@prognemesiss]

Also, "Sui" means water in chinese, so it has water in his name, literally

[@neri1220]

They are more cats then dogs but people call them legendary dogs.

[@deathboo5535]

If I recall correctly, the reason of Suicune's typing (and the other two beasts) is due to the Burnt Tower legend, thats says that three pokemon died when the Brass tower suddenly started burning, then was strucked by a lightning and then it was put down by a mysterious downpour, Ho-oh then gave life again to those three pokemon and gave them legendary powers based on the fire, lightning, and rain that the tower went through. So, lore wise it makes sense that Suicune is Water type.

[@Chaos89P]

A theory I've heard of is that the three unnamed Pokémon that perished in the blaze were a Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon.

[@matthewwong6918]

Besides the "Sui" in Suicune's name comes from the Chinese word for water and its the mascot of crystal version, with crystals being hydrated minerals

[@SuperiorPosterior]

@DeathBoo The legend says the Tower was struck by Lightning (thus Raikou's the oldest of the trio), set Aflame (thus Entei being the second Ho-oh created), and the fire was put out by the purifying rain, (thus Suicune being the last of the three, and its ability to purify any water it touches).

Yeah, you have to work from the assumption that it's water type for a reason and find out why rather than looking at it and guessing its type then saying "well that can't be right" when you find out you're wrong. There's obvious reasons for it to be water type, even if taken on its own ice would be more obvious.

Ecos Adventurer They never say antimatter in the Games or Anime, or by Gamefreak, that’s just speculation. Gravity seems to be a better explanation for it and it’s destructive nature. It flies without using air magic, and it’s spectral wings shouldn’t be able to fly in the real world, so the ability to control gravity would explain this away, and the distortion world plays with gravity by making water flow “up” and have floating chunks of land. Gravity can also be very destructive, so banishing it makes sense. Obviously that’s also speculation, but this is just to say to not spout out speculation as fact.

[@thewolfofroses3504]

Well I know this probably won't get a response, but Palkia might be loosely based off an old Egyptian primordial deity named Nun, who is believed today to be the Ancient Egyptians interpretation of Space. Which even more convincingly, the Ancient Egyptians thought the night sky was in fact a great ocean, that would certainly explain the water type. Also fun fact, that deity Nun was in fact Ra's father, who was the sun god and head honcho of the Egyptian Pantheon.

[@IgnitedQuils]

19:23 That's the English translator's fault for categorizing Blastoise that.

Yeah, but does that not sound like a water type Pokémon idea for you. I mean its a Pokémon...take Araquanid for example. It is essentially the Diving Bell Spider in reverse(it makes water bubbles to stay on land while the real thing makes air bubbles) So it would not be to crazy to believe that instead of shooting bubbles(essentially pockets of air) they made it shoot water instead. Plus pistol shrimps do have one claw that is bigger(like Lockstin mentioned in the video) than the other and the claw can noticeable like "cock back" when getting ready to fire. Also Pistol Shrimp is a crustacean named after a gun just like Clawncher is. Similar to how Octillary is an octopus with tank/artillery traits or Remoraid is based on an archer fish.

Palkia is water type because Giratina, Dialga and Palkia all represent 3 forms of matter. Giratina is represents gases so it's Ghost type, Dialga represents solids so it's Steel type, Palkia represents liquids so it's Water type......

I think that Palkia being a water type is a reference to how ancient human civilizations such as Egypt thought that space was water and that the world was created from a bunch of water. It's also interesting how in Hebrew cosmology that the firmament is what separates the waters of space from the Earth and that Yahweh separated the waters from the waters to form the Earth. There also was a Greek philosopher named Thales who not only believed that the Earth was sitting in a vast ocean of water, but also that all material things could be broken down to being made of water. It seems that this typing makes more sense with that history in mind and how people have associated space/matter with water. (Edit) Man, I was not expecting to get some thumbs up for pointing out a small thing!

[@TotallyCluelessGamer]

Honestly I always felt like Raikou holds the other two beasts back. To explain, Entei is associated with Volcanoes, which to me would indicate a Fire/Ground typing, while Suicine is meant to be Water/Ice due to its ability to purify any water it touches and its strong association with the north wind. Then you have Raikou off in the corner sniffing glue with its only logical typing being Mono-Electric. Though I could see it possibly being Electric/Normal with an emphasis on Sound attacks(Its Pokedex mentions its Bark being like a thunder-strike, and most sound based moves are Normal) and STAB Extremespeed(the Pokedex references it as being extremely fast) added to its movelist to represent both Lightning and Thunder. That said Electric/Normal is still a stretch given that Normal typically means something is plain, or is "we don't know what the heck type to give this".

[@sylviadailey9126]

Maybe Raikou could be electric/flying. It doesn't have wings but it could easily be remained as part flying. It can be the beast of storms with the air magic of winds and clouds with the electric magic of lightning. Tornadus, Thundrus and Landerous are all flying, and all have clouds instead of wings. Tornadus is even a rare case of a pure flying type. Raiku has fluff on its back, that resembles a storm cloud. So it could work as part flying. Then all legendary beasts have dual types.

I don't know if Lockstin reads comments, but if you're wondering why rotom has water 24:02, it's because it's been mentioned a few times already that Water Type moves are not real water. You can't sate your thirst in a desert with their water. That water also doesn't go into the water cycle. Rotom-W is most likely just conjuring temporary faux-water. A lot of Pokemon powers are straight up magic, and recent games have been pushing the narrative that typed energy is powered by lifeforce.

Wouldn't having a fire-breathing (or just fire associated) reptile just make people question why it isn't a dragon, like that one other fire-breathing reptile that people questioned its non-dragon status for years?

[@sylviadailey9126]

The actual division of turtles is between side necked turtles and straight necked turtles. Both of them are aquatic in nature, and so are full blown turtles. The straight necked turtles has plenty of regular freshwater turtles. It also has soft shell turtles and sea turtles. Interestingly enough this group also has tortoises. In a way tortoises and sea turtles are opposites in having extremes of different life styles. Sea turtles are aquatic to the extreme, while tortoises are terrestrial to the extreme. Lifestyle is the one main thing that makes tortoises different from regular turtles.. That is some neat divergent evolution there.. Tortoises don't form thier own major group, in the way people may think they do. It is just that the turtles formed a bunch of thier own little offshoots, and one of them became tortoises. So tortoises are turtles, because they evolved from turtles. They form a natural group. The technical term for such a group is a clade. Not all turtles are tortoises, but all tortoises are definitely turtles. The Squirtle line is obviously a turtle. I won't even call them tortoises just based on water type alone. The Archen line is definitely a turtles. This is partially due to the water typing and partially because of the clear sea turtle look. Pokemon already has good tortoise representation as there are those that don't have the water type. These are more terrestrial ones, that look like tortoises.. Torkoal is one, due to the fire typing. The turtwig line is another, even though there is ankylosaur mixed in. There is grass and ground.
