The LOST Pokemon of Generation 3 👀

Beldum originally looks like a dumbbell. Dumbbells are typically used for arm exercises. Beldum now resembles one of Metagross's arms. Beldum is an arm. It all works out

and Manectric

[@TieYourLaurenDown]

Are we sure Aarie isn’t a dog that was drowned in a sack? That’s also incredibly sad and seems to fit with the design. The ghost of the dog emerging from the sack.

[@danielstokes2127]

My first thought was a la lorona reference

[@TieYourLaurenDown]

@ oh my god! Yes! I think it’s probably that mixed with the dog concept. Especially considering the South/Meso-American inspirations for a lot of these designs.

[@1313puredragon]

Aarie also sounds a little like Ariel like The Little Mermaid

[@JonCrs10]

What if its a Squonk? They're sad looking dog monsters of Lumberjack folklore

[@bnashee]

TBH i think either way thats like.... damn way too sad. Whoever came up with that pokemon was really going through it maybe

[@royaldonut9064]

I like how even Gamefreak devs themselves sometimes critique Pokémon designs by “It’s literally just an X thing” yet still gave us Flamigo

[@evanpereira3555]

Flamigo is funny tho and not just literally a flamingo (the knot neck and weird peck), like Tauros is bull-like but don't have a 1:1 bull design.

[@Grungus37]

I think they just want to avoid doing too much of that because clearly they do this a lot lol

[@RokuroCarisu]

Also, they had a really cool flamingo Pokémon ready for Gen 6 and didn't use it!

[@TheDeathmail]

Also a lawn decoration flamingo…. Plus they actually do a few simple Pokémon. They just do not want a lot of them.

[@ivanlol7825]

​@@RokuroCarisuYES OMG! I hate it! They had a beautiful flamingo pokemon and just said "nah, forget it", so they could make a uglier dumber one.

[@yuliybekutadaten-shi8294]

i get the feeling aarei was just made happier and turned into primarina 4 gens later due to blue seal dog, and then keromeelo and otoma were repurposed for the seismatoad line when gen five came around because of musical/vibration based tadpole to frog line. could just be me but that was my impression while looking at them in this video

[@4eraeI]

too bad seismitoad line was a downgrade they're just a toad with lumps and don't even have a musical theme, they learn plenty of sound based normal type moves like hyper voice and uproar but that's it.

[@noahberan6498]

Maybe some inspiration went into it, but Primarina was made with Hawaii/Alola in mind. Also I can't be the only one who sees Bellibolt when I look at that frog right?

[@bnashee]

It does kind of look like a primarina with clinical depression

[@ryninja5788]

19:25 I’m 100% willing to bet this pokemon was originally the one you’d find on mirage island instead of wynaut. If that island idea even existed at this point.

[@Necrosdragon]

25:03 The “sticks” you mentioned in Paaruru’s mouth are likely the adductor muscles found in real mollusks. They’re used to close the mollusk shells

You can tell Lockstin had fun doing research for this video. And here we are having fun watching it.

[@darcieclements4880]

Yes but I'm going to have to say most of these were pretty good decisions to continue to rework.

[@NightFuryLover31]

Maybe Aarei being a selkie is also because it sounds like “sulk.” Man, Flygon changed so much compared to what we got now. “THE SKY FRUIT HAS ARRIVED!” 😆

[@26th_Primarch]

King Julian moment

[@wickedTrickster]

My first thought when seeing Heppy and Supanku was "cherry blossom skunk". Like, they spray you like a skunk but it smells like cherry blossoms instead

[@andrewcogdillcole3826]

17:00. That's a better idea than what I thought. I was thinking it was a puppy in a sac that somebody drowned in the ocean, and it transformed into a siren like Johtos Beast trio

[@TheGoldenDunsparce]

omg it could be that too, where the cloth is remnants of the sack

[@m2pt5]

12:33 "GENTLEMEN! Behold... This Thing!" "Uh, what is it?" "I DON'T KNOW!"

[@Isaac-lunar09]

When lockstin said swamp rabbit, i immediately thought swampert. I guess having a water starter associated with swampy water was already decided

[@timwoods2852]

That spiky kangaroo rat could definitely be the starting point for Togedemaru. A lot of these beta designs are similar to Pokémon we did eventually get. Like the sad water dog sounds a lot like Primarina and the musical frogs like the Seismitoad line.

[@GCatlord]

i think you misinterpreted clampearl and huntail, it seems to me like the throughline for the evolution is that they both use lures- i think the original clampearl *is* the clam, and the pearl with the "face" is the lure. the clam uses its tongue (with a fake face) to lure prey into its own mouth, and evolves into a pokemon that does the same with its tail. when gorebyss was added they changed clampearl because it didn't tie in with gorebyss at all, but it made the gimmick more confusing : /

[@Biggpoppa83]

Also the tail looks like gorebyss

[@----x-----]

this actually makes sense, the line would work better this way

[@evanpereira3555]

Some of the notes are incredible, like the refusal ones or Trapinch in Flygon lines which is just pure genius.

[@Bysthedragon]

I don't think Charmander should count as "Real animal with Element slapped on" cause it's inspired off of the Fire Salamander, which were believed to be "Born from Fire"

[@MusicComet]

Yeah, but do you see any animal breathe fire in the real world? No? That's why the element is slapped on even if it's inspired. Just like how the water bunnies in this video can be associated with water, but understandably don't spit water.

[@Bysthedragon]

Can you think of any Rabbits that have a mythological or Folklore precedent for being associated with water in the same way that Fire Salamanders are associated with fire?

[@MusicComet]

@Bysthedragon Okay, but just because it's associated with it, doesn't mean the element isn't slapped on. It just has a good reason as to why it does. Salamanders still don't breathe or are born from fire, that's a myth and there's plenty of pokemon based on myths which explains their typing.

[@Bysthedragon]

@@MusicComet I feel like you are not understanding something. Yes a Salamander is a real animal that can not breath fire, but Charmander is not the real animal, It is a fictional creature that embodies both the animal and the myth about the animal. It also has the context of being the first stage of Charizard, and Dragons are also well known for being associated with Fire If it was a Fire...Kangaroo or something random then maybe that would be an animal with an element slapped on unless there's a connection between Kangaroos and Fire I am not aware of

[@MusicComet]

@Bysthedragon Agree to simply disagree. We're not gonna get anywhere with this.

[@justinn8541akaDrPokemon]

I feel like the tie behind beta-Peliper's design is supposed to resemble a bib,

[@ryninja5788]

Actually I think it’s supposed to be a bandana, and would’ve been more the signature pokemon for team aqua. Would match the bandana they wear on their heads. Heck, it’s hat looks like a pirate hat.

[@Titin-oz6jh]

Yes I thought the same right away! It fits with how these birds eat everything they can irl

[@XanBcoo]

I came here to say this

[@Americanbadashh]

@@ryninja5788 This!

[@jordanzwick4169]

That “Alabama banning California stuff” analogy sort of misses that Japan spent time trying to forcibly subsume and replace Korean culture. This makes the Korean hostility to Japanese cultural influences more understandable.

[@TMek42]

He's unfortunately obsessed

[@Oboutte12]

Yeah I was about to say that

[@thefinalduane]

i was gonna say something about this too, there’s definitely a difference between “banning content because i don’t like it” and dealing with a history of cultural genocide.

[@valteine]

To be fair Korea an Japan tried to invade eachother a lot from what I remember. Similar to the historic animosity between the French an the English. The French even successfully invaded an conquered the native population at one point via the Normans.

[@Americanbadashh]

@@valteine Imperial Japan's rule was very different to medieval era conflicts. Where being conquered just mean your taxes went to a different rich guy.

[@TheMutantKing116]

[@gabriellavedier9650]

Aarei is literally just beta Primarina, same inspiration just depressed. It's a selkie siren animal with the front legs not changed yet. She needs some love, in the emotional sense. Maybe needs to be back in the age of Arceus' true plan, when you could marry Pokemon.

[@fearjunkie]

26:07 Not sure if that's a great parallel because Japan historically did some pretty messed up stuff to Korea.

[@jahmman8984]

It's just him showing his political brain rot. Really a horrible comparison in context with history

[@peteynutt4104]

[@LoveAmethyst]

Aarei makes me think of the Sobble line because of the colors and sadness. Sobble's whole deal is shy and crying, so it fits to me and the purple on top makes me think of Drizzle's emo swoop.

[@darcieclements4880]

I think it's actually meant to be something extremely dark that I don't even want to say. Like I don't know why he missed it but maybe his brain was also not wanting to go there.

[@alexlee4806]

As a Korean the note for the makuhita pre-evo is interesting since Korea and Japan have beef with each other still to this day.

[@Bionickpunk]

It's almost like Americans keep forgetting that Korea used to be occupied by Japan, it's culture and language suppressed. The comparison between US states is completely different from Korea and Japan.

[@Americanbadashh]

Korea and Japan are slowly starting to mend relations, though it's still a bit of a rocky relationship.

I was just going to say it was quite tone deaf. I'm an American and even I'm aware of the horrors Japan committed in Korea. Yikes.

[@dansuryuu8254]

I could see Raiou getting re-worked/element taken from for Luxray. It’s just in the next generation and I always thought Luxray’s main looked vaguely Star shaped

[@drawingwithcharles]

Yes!! They totally kept that idea around especially with the lion idea! I feel like it didn’t work as a manectric evolution because that line is canine (and you can’t have a feline final evo)

[@thanathosgodofdeath]

There's a theory that originally a sound type was going to be introduced in gen 3. Just look at all the sound inspired mons(a frog with a note, teeths on yeti's foot look like soundwave, etc) that could explain some sound inspired mons but they ultimately decided to not any more types. If they actually added sound type in gen 3 could that mean they would've added a new type each gen which tbh would make things complicated and kinda hard to come up with an type that would work lol

[@danielstokes2127]

They also added the Whismur line in gen 3 so that’s additional evidence

[@crcoghill]

I love Komari's design! The colors of an old looking or traditionally made toy, the cute "horns"(ears), the cute pokedex entry. I wish it was official so i could buy a plush!

[@laurawasnewsky155]

Ninfu's design strongly reminds me of Q-Bee from Darkstalkers. And considering that Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire first came out just five years after Q-Bee made her debut in Darkstalkers 3, maybe it's possible Game Freak took some inspiration from her when they designed Ninfu?

[@windcrow5751]

Thats what cross my mind too, the lavender hair was too close

[@AaronL0905]

I think pelipper is a pirate. 1:39 Pirate bandana, pirate hat, a little mean looking.

[@Wandergirl108]

I am shocked you didn't mention Bonsly once when talking about Kanbok - it may be different in concept and details, but the surface-level appearance is so close! Also, I thought Aarei looked really pretty, I think I would have loved it, potentially sad design origins aside.

[@pinkleafsheep]

i feel like Aaries name gives it away, I think it's meant to be the classical Ariel from little mermaid, with additional inspiration from things like selkies

[@greatdaze1]

The south america connection its interesting because as a kid i always wondered if the kyogre/groudon beef was inspired by a local myth (chiloe, chile) about two god snakes who fought by rising the sea levels and the mountain ranges

[@udadox]

The legend of Trentren Vilú and Caicai Vilú its literally the climax of Pokemon Emerald

[@greatdaze1]

42:44 I'm guessing that Weathery was going to be the original hail design for the beta Castform, but it got changed to the tornado version we see today, with Googoo being the sandstorm design before, and thus leading to Castform being left with no sandstorm design.

[@necrocomicon8]

It should get a signature move that traps their opponent and increases their defense sharply. It's kind of like an iron defense and a block combined. And it would have to 100% have the magnet pull ability.

The Parasite possessing various Pokémon skulls gives me "Buried Alive" vibes. Kinda a third Pokémon it would use, following the two White Hands.

[@26th_Primarch]

Honestly, it would fit as a really neat ghost type. And, it could've evolved by collecting more bones (possibly given to it by the player) to build a skeleton to stand up with that could give it an extra typing. Plus, a green slime doing that kinda thing gives me D&D slime monster vibes.

[@aleksabanjevic8316]

11:20 why does almost no one mention that this pokemon was bug psychic (it was grass type at one point but later changed to bug psychic before being fully cut) like, that's so cool, a bug psychic type in gen 3, and, it was a bug that mimiced a plant, the opposite of lourantis
