Pokemon is a game full of bizarre, off-the-wall theories. But one that's generally overlooked is the role of humans in the Pokemon world. Evidence from Pokemon Silver and Gold, Diamond and Pearl, Red and Blue, and even entries in the Pokedex and anime all point to one conclusion: Humans ARE Pokemon. Believe it!

"Why don't humans have abilities if they're pokemon?" You forgot the other, extremely simple answer. Evolution. My theory is at one point, there were many more types of pokemon that didn't have abilities, and natural selection killed them off. For humans, on the other hand, their dexterity and intelliegence, and adaptability allowed them to survive without any major abilities and become the dominant species on earth.

Fun fact: if Gardevoir was real, it could end all life on earth in an instant. Sure, they do everything they can to protect their owner, even if it means putting their lives at risk, but their method of protection is where the flaw comes in. As their main method of protection is to summon a small black hole. I’ll put it like this: if a Gardevoir summoned a black hole the size of a penny, not only would it tear apart everything surrounding it, but it would go on to engulf the rest of the planet.

I mean, IRL humans have: • Extraordinary stamina • The ability to throw projectiles with distance and accuracy rarely seen in the animal kingdom • Tool use is the obvious one • Collective learning and phenomenal pattern recognition

[@abominationdesolation8322]

Plus our linguistic abilities, including reading, writing, and math, allow us to accumulate understanding over generations. Animals have their own linguistic codes of sort but they lack the sheer complexity and longevity-of-concept as the human languages. Animals can't express ideas across dozens of generations like we can. If a bird sees a purple dragon, that bird has no way of relaying that information to birds ten generations down the line.

[@sophiejones7727]

well, you didn't watch the whole video then... it seemed to be more that Pokemon have an actual reason to team up with humans and to engage in duels with other Pokemon: i.e. improving their skills and thus their chance of survival. Think about it: a human can help a squirtle learn to beat a normally far superior Pokemon, like a charizard. That Pokemon gains a huge evolutionary advantage over his peers, thanks it's relationship with a human. This makes the relationship between Pokemon and human mutually beneficial, at least so long as the Pokemon are picky about which trainers they let capture them. That's why they force you to fight them before they get captured: they want to see how good you are before they decide to follow you.

[@MrSuperTeenGohan]

But one thing is a bit odd about this. If human minds were what made humans superior to other pokemon, and led them to be able to actually call themselves non-pokemon, then why isn't the pokeworld ruled by psychic pokemon? if alakazam have an IQ of 5000, then their minds would be far greater than human minds. So why isn't the pokemon world ruled by alakazam, and why would mew become nearly extinct, if mind was what was needed to rule the pokemonworld? At first i thought that perhaps we were bigger in numbers, but then i remembered, that pokemon breeding is actually quite fast compared to humanbreeding. for one human to be bred, it takes nine months, and many more years before it reaches maturity. imagine how many psychic pokemon could have been bred in that time period. So if psychic pokemon have greater minds (or at least as great) than humans, and breed faster, then why? Then i realized why humans in the real world were ruling earth. Yes, it is partly because of intelligence, but also because of adaptability and our social behaviour. Adaptability: Humans can become anything. You have probably seen many different trainers, some are: psychics, swimmers and pyromaniacs. Based on this it is possible to say, that humans can adapt. One human can live in water, a charizard can't. another can become a pyromaniac, thus gaining advantage that a swimmer wouldn't have, and so on. Whenever the human would be faced with a problem, they would find a way to adapt, but if a psychic pokemon was living a place with many dark pokemon it wouldn't survive. this would result in a greater survival rate, and thus our numbers of mature individuals would be greater than, or as great as, the number of mature psychic pokemon. (not to mention that alakazam can't even exist without human trading, and mewtwo wouldn't have been born without humans, so some of the greater psychic pokemon are dependant on humans) Social behaviour: When in the wild, you don't see a lot of pokemon families running together. Often you encounter lvl 3 or 4 pkmn, which definately aren't mature enough to defend themselves against real threats. But mature humans would take care of the imature humans, making it so the imature humans could survive long enough to become mature. This would further increase our survival rate, and therefore numbers. So when it gets down to it, what really makes human superior to all other pokemon (or animals) are their inteligence, adaptability and social behaviour. But hey, that's just a theory, a commentor theory! Thanks for reading!

Ausintune I'm a troll because I ask a legit question? K.

[@punkbeluga5091]

Makes sense, we do evolve from kid to sad teen then depressed adult and then contemplating elder 😂

[@thrakerzad5874]

so the reason no one wants to catch other humans is because they don't have flame tornadoes?

[@GoinGreninja]

Thrakerzad No. There's more to it than that.

[@reaperx7026]

Yeah that's about it like what could a human do use slap 😂

[@preciousslater9250]

yes.

[@Luisxpro10]

Human could use 300 pound Machine Gun

[@demogod4955]

Human used "Nuke" *Its super effective*

[@daltonlefler892]

MaddySquidCat 7 I OH NO A SPOON!

[@ikmwrime29sorryaira60]

*ß,øøøøøøøøøøøøøø˜!*

[@Vinikis]

I love how matpat just casually searches up what he talks about and casually asks how to calm down a maniac lmao

[@MindOfGenius]

2:35 "Humans are pokemon." 'An error has occurred, please try again later. Learn More.' PERFECT TIMING, INTERNET! XD

[@mysteryjune]

Your computer is a copy cat.

[@Verlisify]

I wish I could score an amazing collab for my channel like this This whole thing was incredible

[@HEADRUSH444]

you wish lol

[@Creepermanoftehbatz]

Verlis you have friends :P

[@aberomoa5149]

Verlis used Wish! But it failed!

[@joerionis5902]

At least you're mentioned years later

[@ixand3ri311]

Respect for still posting 7 years later very impressive

[@legendarysuicune4500]

it makes so much sense now in pokemon xy and z pokemon can have humans features if they have a strong enough bond take ashes greninja for example as they battled they became synchronised and greninja looked a lot like ash with black hair and red features and ash could see and feel what greninja did

[@legendarysuicune4500]

***** lol

[@legendarysuicune4500]

***** and there he is now

[@lillydarling]

still lost to a charizard x... MAN

[@ripleyjlawman.3162]

LegendarySuicune ♡ bad writing

[@damnlemons7015]

you explaind that pretty well

[@themeaning2587]

1:23 Where tf does Matpat get that image BEFORE he Photoshoped his own head on

[@TheAngelBacon]

If people are Pokemon... does that mean I can catch Misty and she'd belong to me? Kidnapping is so much more effective in the pokemon universe.

[@zachfrank3477]

Girlfriend get!

[@matheuscastello6554]

Nihilego and Lusamine fusing, AZ Floette and Ash Greninja really helped back this up

[@Zen_0992]

Matheus Castello i

[@ace-ue9tv]

No its stupid like you aggreing to this

[@w4nn4-cry58]

Matheus Castello clap clap clap

[@StorySaysProductions]

why didnt they mention "pokemon mystery dungeon: explorers of time" At the beginning the player says "i cant hold on any longer" because they are in a sea storm on a boat, therefore, drowning and 3 seconds later, you are a pokemon on a beach ? LOGIC

[@ScTiger1311]

Good point.

[@sugarfree_]

yah they should have said something like that

[@MrMcDiggle]

incorrect, now if you just started playing, i get it, and STOP READING HERE!!! (spoilers ahead!) ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- In actuality, your character is transformed into a pokemon when you go back in time to change the past for the better. Something goes wrong, likely to do with dusknoir's jerkishness, and THAT is why your char. is a human. It has nothing to do with a boat. In reality, there are no humans in the PMD universe. they have all died out. why they are in the future, i don't know, but that is true. just look at red and blue rescue team's friend zones, like the power plant and the lab or whatever.

[@electriclies7565]

I've always believed kadabra evolved from a crackhead, you know how touchy he is about his spoon.

[@antoniasalinas513]

That is the cringiest thumbnail I will probably ever see.

[@diegoflores3422]

Yes... yes it is

[@frankmyers8062]

Dude that pic is the stuff nightmares are made of..!

[@toasterman3218]

Antonio Salinas That would be a neat bootleg

[@shabanaali6030]

Its just worst then the nightmare fuel of grianz elmoXD

[@noahgarrett5195]

No, it’s the most beautiful

[@DrMadd]

Now I want a theory on how Pokémon learn TMs I can't have enough theories!

[@LeechOfSukiness]

I always imagined that, since the TMs are disks, the trainer just had a disc player or a laptop with them at all times that played some instructions that your pokemon followed to learn a move. Example: in the anime Ash's Staravia learned Brave Bird from a Staraptor.

[@chrisvannooten1218]

YeOldTurnip Imagine HM02 fly. Step 1: Spread Wings. Step 2: Flap wings Step 3: Repeat steps 1 and 2

[@RWhite_]

YeOldTurnip You take the disk, then you smash it repeatedly into their face until it is literally absorbed by their skin. That's why TMs are one use only.

[@DrMadd]

Deceiver9811 Then explain why since gen 5 they have been reusable.

[@RWhite_]

DrMaddWorld Portable cloning technology.

[@CerealExperimentsMizuki]

That desktop picture with his and Peach's heads photoshopped onto some Conan The Barbarian like body.

[@pancakezrblx7077]

[@andrewrussell5113]

[@roberthasan512]

Okay I will be the new priest of mew

[@LunarRaevyn]

I'd like to join, as well.

[@nicholasreed9180]

Evolution? Pffffft! There's obviously no such thing, and humans were just created by a magical bearded man in the sky who let his son die and loves everyone except for gay people

[@tacobelltrucker6920]

You religeous people ruin these videos

[@nicholasreed9180]

Tacobelltrucker69 its a joke dumbass. im probably the biggest athiest you will ever meet.

[@bigpaddycoolp1239]

How can you be a 'big' atheist. It's a lack of belief. It's impossible to have a larger lack of belief than another person.

[@nicholasreed9180]

you people annoy me.

[@pikachu_x5623]

Tacobelltrucker69 its a fucking joke, you idiot

[@Isaac-yo1ql]

Do another pokemon theory on how the pokemon world could be the 3rd layer (real world) of the matrix!!! (yes the movie XD) Kadabra = There is no spoon boy.

[@yeetusparakeetus]

Yes there is,you're thinking of Abra.

[@julianbogucki3189]

Koopa Troopa yes, more

[@DamonDraven]

*Officer Pig* It was a reference to the Matrix movie, where a kid with telekinetic powers bends a spoon with his own mind and tells the protagonist that "there is no spoon". Kadabra = kid in the movie.

[@jeremyhundley5008]

Julian bogucki

[@snakanter]

Well... He would be there is a spoon. So......

[@Krawler8717]

My first Game Theory... You will be missed sir

[@PrideHablemosdeTerror]

This makes sense! But what would happen if you point a pokedex to a human? Should there be a reaction?

[@choppedfoxx3488]

Pokedex runs through servers and picture recognizing software based on previous entries by other professors and trainers.

[@mecatronicaiv9930]

No, because the pokedex is just an encyclopedia. It only shows what its registered.

[@roethered7830]

The Humans programmed the PokeDex. Due to how the humans in the pokemon universe do not acknowledge themselves as pokemon, they had not programmed the PokeDex to identify them as pokemon.

[@PrideHablemosdeTerror]

choppedfox x Ohhhh ok, i thought it was like a scanner of genes or something

[@KonnerJohnson]

9:24 That comment says I'M A MAGIKARP!!! Wut???

[@bigrgo3616]

Ya lol

[@jtj1128]

Best comment ever

[@theotheo719]

gg

[@snowflakeandbananagamming6253]

i noticed! lolol

[@beanieisdumb800]

Lol

[@bpj7092]

This would make sense since every Pokémon says their name in perfect English or respective language you're watching in

[@watershinobi3451]

Wait, so if we're Pokémon, what are Pokémon? #rhetoricalquestion

[@schwellenangst1605]

Pokémon are us!

[@noahgarrett5195]

ImStraight Kt was rhetorical

[@mikehenderson7907]

If dogs are animals, what are cats?

[@piss282]

Mike Henderson animals

[@faktafakta316]

just like humans are animals

[@ShinyGoldBacon]

Can people be caught in pokeballs? Luxury ball for me, please.

[@Plantster15]

no you get: crappy wooden made shit made covered crap ball

[@Plantster15]

i have 3

[@ShinyGoldBacon]

Plantster15 Make up your mind: Is it wooden made or shit made? Either way, sounds like a flimsy device that any little magikarp can break out of. :P

[@Genya2008]

ShinyGoldBacon It is possible to catch Humans in Pokéballs OK only in some of the Movies you can make in Black 2 and White 2 but there you make Movies were Pokémon rules the world and train humans.

[@madonadog7915]

I can see it: Ash throwing Pokeballs on everyone and screaming "GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL"

[@azuresegugio9095]

The niiiight Ketchum went crazy The night the trainer went insane

[@akafacts]

As a Pokemon Professor, I could have confirmed that for you :p

[@banger320]

Look at that, a peer review. It's SCIENCE NOW.

[@thetruejcgreen]

you're not a pokemon prof for they are all named after trees thats why ash is gonna become one

[@akafacts]

Jcg .games no no. Those are professors who study Pokemon. I am a professor who is a Pokemon :p

[@megans3371]

Oh what the, I spilled my milk all over the monitor because of this XD

[@sloth_6333]

It must be pretty embarrassing when he finds out hitmonchan is 100% male....

[@Summonearth]

Hey, for all we know he is homosexual or even bisexual.

[@valerielopez7485]

he gots a girl, so let's rule out homosexual

[@Summonearth]

He still could be bisexual (or pansexual or demisexual.) Either that he has been denying his true feelings the whole time and he really is deep down homosexual but hadn't found that inner spark to truly realize that yet.

[@gladarmorpricesareabsurd]

JonScytheMan hitmochan is the best fighting type and,,,,, hitmochan used [fire punch] dont make sense
