[@prowler6435]

The most insane coincidence in Pokémon will always be the shiny Unown oversight in Gen 2. For those that don't know (and haven't seen other videos on it), Pokémon in gen 2 are determined by their IV values. The letters of Unown are also determined by their IV values. Because of this, only some Unown letters are even capable of being shiny. By coincidence, those letters are I and V.

[@alexmulder1145]

Except back in the generation 1 and 2 games they were called direct values and ranged from 0-15 instead of individual values that range from 0-31

[@prowler6435]

@@alexmulder1145 Unless it was named specifically after the Unown oversight, it's still a coincidence. I couldn't find why it was specifically named that (it's not stated on the Bulbapedia page). I think it would be more well known if it was named after the Unown. If anything, that makes it even more of a coincidence, with the title being more separated from the oversight. If you want to be really technical, they were originally called "innate strength" according to Bulbapedia.

[@lookatmyzombies9377]

Yes despite the name change, they are pretty much the same game mechanic. Another difference is that DVs tie special stats together where IVs have separate spatk spdef stats

[@SJrad]

The wisp like things are about the only thing that are close to resbling each other - but if it's just about the wisps you might as well say that Arceus and Misdreavus are based on each other or something.

[@NightFuryLover31]

Ryme may not have had a Skeledurge, but she did battle Roy’s Fuecco. Never noticed the Larvesta and Arceus thing. I actually just learned about the Venonat and Bufferfree theory yesterday. Ah yes, I remember Diamond/Jade. I’m as old as this franchise, and there’s still so much to learn! 😁

[@Ufo3208_]

"Coincidence? I THINK NOT"

[@eyescream8743]

[@TBustah]

Technically, Ho-oh is based on the houou, a mythical Chinese bird. There are a lot of similarities between the houou and the phoenix of western myth, but (traditionally, at least), the houou doesn’t rise from its ashes. That’s just modern depictions like Game Freak’s combining the two, sort of like how Santa Claus is an American amalgamation of various European characters (which is why he has all of those other names: Saint Nick, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, etc.).

[@BJGvideos]

Does it count as "western" if it's from the Middle East? It's further west than China but...

[@TBustah]

@@BJGvideos It’s from Greece. Sure, it may or may not have borrowed from the simurgh and or other Middle Eastern legends, but it happened so long ago and the Greek version is the one that’s ingrained in western culture. It’s like noodles: they started in Asia, but it’s kind of hard to imagine Italy without pasta, so much so that we generally think of Italy first.

[@BJGvideos]

@@TBustah Greece? I always heard Iraq

[@TBustah]

@@BJGvideos The term “phoenix” and the legends known in the west are from Greece, but there are other, very similar legendary birds from the Middle East (namely, Persia and Egypt) that may or may not have influenced it. I’ve read a bit about it because I live in the suburbs of Phoenix, Arizona. The name actually has nothing to do with the heat. They called it that because it’s built on top of ancient American Indian ruins, making it a city that sort of came back to life. They even excavated the ancient canals and reused them to bring water to the area. Sound familiar? Phenac in Orre and its origin story were inspired by this bit of real-world history. The mayor’s ancestor didn’t build on top of ruins or reuse existing canals, but he did dig new ones to bring water to Phenac.

[@BJGvideos]

@@TBustah Built on top of ruins? Geez, people never do learn better, do they?

[@keyframeclips]

Coincidence? In the words of Inigo Montoya, “You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”

[@Pokesatsu96]

100% agree. Especially the ones that are the same generation. Like of course Rhyperior looks like a miner it's the same gen as the sinnoh underground ffs.

[@CorynSilver]

The artwork of Beta Arceus is strangely haunting

[@gglezttv]

I want this to be the Omnipotent Form of God Arceus then the Arceus we're seeing today is just the Plate Form Arceus

[@user-kl6kv7ii5s]

Beta arceus (aka: true arceus) was supposed to appear in the final game instead of his avatar version, however not only the fandom couldn't like it at all plus if true arceus sided with lucas, how in the world the anime, manga and spin-offs could use arceus in their respectives creations, so the avatar comes in mind in order to use the creator in other medias beyond the games.

[@Cherryscentedcandle]

I feel the same way. Idk why, but for some reason it creeps me out

[@WBSlashH]

18:28 as someone from Pittsburgh no one in or near the city has a 878 area code. We are all 412 and 724 lol

[@ItsTechnicallyMagic]

[@BrodyMK64]

That’s exactly what I said. I live in south Allegheny county and it’s 412/724, 878 isn’t close by

[@ninomitchell2039]

It's just to cover any potential excess numbers. I am with you guys though that everyone I can recall has either a 412 or 724 number

[@WBSlashH]

@@ninomitchell2039 yes it does exist and came into existence around 2000 but it wasn’t really distributed until like around 2015 but as you said it’s mainly for over foow

[@ninomitchell2039]

@WBSlashH timing makes sense on that I guess. Population growth and all, it didn't seem necessary outside of maybe businesses until then

[@rafdeandrade]

Nowhere has it been implied that the Galarian Birds are the original forms of the elemental birds. The game only explains that they've been called like the Kantonians because they are reminiscent of those.

[@luckymcgirl9916]

My favorite coincidence- In Gen 2, IVs determined both shininess and Unown’s form. The only shiny Unown you can get? I and V. (Yes, I know IVs were known as DVs back then, just go along with it.)

[@RazHolly]

I like how you say the Venonat and Butterfree only have a resemblance, and Cloyster and Gastly are “essentially identical” when that is actually reversed. The only difference with Butterfree and Venonat are the bodies and fangs. Closter’s face kinda sort of looks like Gastly but way off.

[@MidnightLugia24]

I had the very same thoughts. In fact, the only real semblance between Cloyster and Gastly are their eyes, and spherical body. Their mouths are different (fangs vs teeth), colors are different (black vs purple), and outer bodies (gas vs shell) are completely different.

[@ofanichan]

Its how Cloyster and Gastly is right next on the pokedex that really got me. If you ever looked at a poster of all of them and you didnt know the pokemon. You'd assume they were related and not with Shellder and Haunter.

[@BJGvideos]

Kitakami is considerably farther north than Johto. It's closer to Sinnoh (or technically Almia if we want to use EVERY region) than anything else. Not sure how AZ's Floette would explain anything even if it did have a paradox flower (remember, the flower isn't the pokémon). You also have to remember the concept of an homage and it feels like you're leaving that out. The Venonat and Butterfree thing is just how the animals they're based on look What animal does Magerna look like to you? Because the major design elements seem to be "robotic maid" and "pokéball". James Turner is on a lot of social media. Has anyone asked him? A funny coincidence is that we ended up by two different evil teams called Skull. I guess the gen 7 planners at Game Freak forgot Mystery Dungeon was a thing. I wonder if any other staffers brought it up. I can't imagine that every kimono dancer would have a connection to the Kimono Girls. Also Erika could be tossing the ball in the air rather than levitating it. Barry and Bianca do have a connection since they're both rivals. You even say that. The line about the pink pokémon with a floral pattern is funny since the girl also complains about chunky pokémon. She would reject Munna for being too chonk We do know that they designed a bunch of mons and continue to draw from that backlog, so it's possible that Munna and Musharna had their origins there. Not necessarily fully designed but pulled from these rough designs. I feel like Lusamine made herself look like Pheremosa and influenced Guzma to look more like Xurkitree. We know she pushed Lillie to look how she does, after all.

[@matthewrowlett1564]

Ooh ooh! I can answer one I these! Magearna looks like a Robot Rabbit in a pokeball themed Maid Uniform! But yes, some of these "coincidences" are a bit forced... Like munna... it's NOT a coincidence at all, because that line is an almost EXACT translation of the Japanese text, And the Artist has obviously played the games, So that line may have stuck somewhere in the deep recesses of memory, and Influenced the Result. Also, the 3 birds being from paldea dosent Work either, as Moltres, the Actual Phoenix pokemon, Is originally named FIRE. it's gen 8 form is Galarian Fire... Which sounds WAY more badass than Moltres. Bring the FIRE! NOW, Enjoy this Crazy Theory. The ultra beast resemble certain characters because they ARE those characters... in their world, they were pokemon instead of humans. And poipole? Why, poipole is the player, obviously... it's a "STARTER" in its world, And how do you start the game? By selecting your character. You also go from a cute little kid to a Deadly powerhouse, just like Poipole. Which, I might add, Sounds similar to People.

[@BJGvideos]

@@matthewrowlett1564 It... doesn't look anything like a rabbit to me. It has long appendages on its head but the entire rest of the body only gives me "robot", leading me to think that it must be a "rabbit ears" reception antenna

I don’t quite think Kitakami & Blueberry Academy were meant to specifically relate to the Paradox Legendary Beasts/Swords of Justice. But rather the two DLC locations and the two Paradox trios were both just meant to further represent Scarlet and Violet’s theme of the Past & Future

[@hhjan594]

Nah the Legendary birds being spanish is just pure coincidence of localizer's creativity. Those birds are called "Freezer" "Thunder" "Fire" in Japanese, they have nothing spanish in their design or lore whatsoever. Simply the localizers couldn't just call them these lame names in the English version.

[@deadpark121]

The Butterfree / Venomoth swap theory i refuse to believe isn't in some way fact. It might have been an intentional choice rather than a mistake like the theory goes. Butterfree is a bit cuter, so let that be the final evolution of the early bug pokemon, even though it wasn't related. But Butterfree shares too many traits with Venonat to not have been the original final stage. Caterpie to Venomoth is a little weaker, but i would still argue Caterpie has more in common physically with Venomoth than it does Butterfree.

[@silasrogan241]

Larvesta’s shiny accentuates the whole concept of it being a Wyrm, which in some mythologies are dragons. My guess is it could be a reference to Arceus being the first dragon.

[@randomnessrules4971]

Another coincidence: Togedemaru is the Electric Hedgehog Pokemon, like Sonichu. Also, I think they like reusing designs.

[@SilverSonic72]

I hardly think that the thing with the paradox legendaries in the dlc matching the past and future vibes of the places is coincidence. It seemed 100% intentional to me.

[@keyframeclips]

I was going to say this too. The area where you find the paradox Pokémon thematically aligns with the designs of those Pokémon? Unbelievable! 🤯

[@DynamixWarePro]

With all the Gen 5 references, especially having Blueberry Academy set in Unova, I assumed it was going to be for upcoming Black and White remakes since we have had remakes of Gen 1,2, 3 and 4 so far and Gen 5 is overdue for remakes. I have heard of the Venonat/Butterfree theory and it makes more sense for Venonat to evolve into Venomoth when both are part poison but Butterfree isn't.

[@TheTakato122]

Black and White will be remade in gen 10 because excluding gen 1 every game that has been remade was released in the generation that is equal to twice the number of the generation that the games were in.

[@Going4Broke2528]

@@TheTakato122 I just hope we get a proper remake like FR/LG, HG/SS and OR/AS instead of the untapped potential that BD/SP turned out to be. Every other remake was taking the old games and remaking them in the style of the new generation, but BD/SP was largely no more than a coat of paint. There were glitches from the ORIGINAL Diamond and Pearl present in BD/SP, some of which were even addressed/fixed in Platinum. Pair that with the rumors that ILCA had planned a proper reboot that Masuda ALLEDGEDLY butchered himself so PLA wouldn't be outshined and personally I'd rather we continue exploring older gens via Legends titles than have to settle with these "Faithful" remasters instead of the remakes that so much love, sweat and passion were poured into for the first 3/6 gens (depending on how you choose to label them). I love modern Pokemon no less than I always have, but I hope we never get another mess like BD/SP.

[@silversonic1]

Magearna is probably not a coincidence, but rather a change in direction. After all, it made no sense as an island guardian when the Pokemon existed LONG before Aether Paradise would have been made. It would have been something of a paradox at the end of the day.

[@shelbybayer200]

@@silversonic1 Paradox you say ?

[@SJrad]

lusamine's appearance looking like pheromosa is intentional and not a coincidence. like she became so obsessed with ultra beasts after the disapearance of mohn that she dressed up her daughter to look more like one, and she changed her own appearance to look like one too. guzma on the other hand is coincidental

[@RealCryptoTest]

Guzma’s such a based character that it rippled through the multiverse and Xurkitree specifically evolved itself to look like him

[@BeIlG]

[@The_Broke_Gamer]

The Ryme fact was irony, not a coincidence.

[@aichabenhmida3228]

an add to the first one is that the item commonly associated with ho-oh is called Sacred Ash which also has ash in its name

Pittsburgher here. The well known area code here is 412, not 878, so unsure where you got that from.

[@ninomitchell2039]

Fellow yinzer here. It is an area code, just not the main one, obviously.

[@wolfknight50]

The one with the ultra beasts can partially be explained from a past interview that mentioned that originally kalos was going to have a slight men in black plot but scrapped from thinking it was too complicated for a lot of players and some of what they scrapped was brought to alola as to why the ultra beasts look similar to some characters

[@SmartAlec86]

I think Sun and Moon were intended to introduce the idea of fusing Pokemon with their trainers. So it's less of a coincidence and more of a scrapped idea.

[@piplupmaster4898]

Wow that's wild with the first league being the last match ash ever had with pikachu and charizard

[@garitinos]

9:46 When I saw Cloyster for the very first time I genuinely thought that it was the evolved form of, or at least related to, Gastly

[@RoyArkon]

Another coincidence regarding Arceus is that he also resembles Absol very much, to the point that people actually thought that Absol is a pre-evolved form of Arceus. Also regarding Erika and the Kimono Girls, Erika also happens to have a Leafeon in both the anime and Pokemon Masters, making her almost like a pseudo-member of the group. Oh and as for Ryme, she doesn't need Skeledirge, her team is very singing-based already, and yes Gym Leaders don't need starters unless they really have to use them. Same thing regarding Roark and Rhyperior, because Rampardos represents the mining theme already along with Bastiodon for Byron.

Gen 8 varients of the birds share the johto evolutions typing. Which can then lead us to say...next eevee evolutions could be fighting and steel. Completing the perfect trio for that pokemon. Fairy steel and fighting. Interesting..as zapdos in galar is part fighting. Connecting the birds to ho-oh again. Who then brought back the johto trio after the burning tower. Lastly, maybe a dragon evolution for eevee as the paradox were all part dragon. 😅 lets see...

[@carolynallisee2463]

I've got something for you that might be a co-incidence, might actually be an easter egg or call back, and it involves Cufant's evolution, Copperajah. Now, Copperajah is a steel type that is shaped both like an Asian elephant and a squarish tea pot, both hints of an Indian subcontinent connection. However, if you look at Copperajah's markings, you will see one that looks somewhat like the island of Cyprus. Cyprus is so called because it was once a source of mineable copper, its name deriving, if my memory serves me correctly, from the word, Cuprum, the old name for copper...

[@c0mpu73rguy]

Here's another coincidence: Eternatus. The thing came from a rift in the sky, creates its own energy able to change the pokemon in the region it landed in and have a pretty wild design all in weird shapes and forms... Wait, did I just described Necrozma right now? Obviously not, Necrozma needs the power from the light to do what he does, kinda like a solar panel while Eternatus builds up its own power and sometimes, is overloaded by it... Kinda like a nuclear power plant. Seriously, it's a shame we can't try to catch Necrozma in any other ball than a pokeball, but I'm sure Beast Balls would work on it if you know what I mean... That thing is an Ultra beast!

I think it is wild how similar wilkstrom and olympia look like the gen 7 legends. They also are psychic and steel trainers.

The Galar birds were named after the Kanto birds because they resembled them, NOT the other way around. It's possible he was mixing it up with Galarian Zigzagoon specifically, as that is stated by the dex to be the original version of the species, with the Hoenn one popping up later, but that does not mean ALL Galarian forms follow that pattern.

I don't mean to be That Guy but the Galarian birds were named after the Kantonian Birds because of their similarities to them. It's not the other way around lol. Galarian Articuno was named Articuno because it can freeze people with beams of psychic energy, similar to how Kantonian Articuno can freeze people with ice. Galarian Zapdos is named Zapdos because when it rubs its feathers together it sounds like crackling electricity, similar to how it's said that when Kantonian Zapdos rubs its feathers together lightning will fall immediately after. Galarian Moltres is named Moltres because the aura around it blazes like fire, similar to Kantonian Moltres' well... fire. Nowhere is it implied that they're the "original" versions of the birds. I think you mixed up the pokedex data of Galarian Zigzagoon, which IS the original version of the species.

In my restless dreams, I see that town... .. .. .. New Bark Town...

some cool stuff!

9:35 Absolutely not, Gastly didn't even looked like that in gen 1. But even now, his eyes are bigger than his head, he have fangs and he is black while Cloyster is dark blue and have a horn. Gastly looks as much like Cloyster as he does to Voltorb.

By next to Lavender Town, I am assuming you mean through that underground tunnel that connects Lavender to Caledon? After all, Lavender and Celadon are NOT next to each other...Saffron is between the two. So, going to assume you were using that tunnel.

Gen 5 is the first gen to censor inappropriate nicknames. During the release of the previous gen 4 games, there was an incident at a nintendo world 2009 event in which a hacked pokemon mystery gift was handed out. The mystery gift in question was a gengar literally nicknamed the n word We don't know if Nintendo censoring bad nicknames in the generation directly after this was due to that incident or not, but I personally dont think its just a weird coincidence. This incident probably happened or was brought to the devs' attention when hgss were too late in development to have censored nicknames added, so instead they added it to the next game in line i.e. b/w. Thats just my theory tho lolol

You telling me they built modern Lumiose City 3000 years ago??? Cause I'm pretty sure that's the only way that Floette is showing up...

[@Going4Broke2528]

AZ and his Floette were both made immortal by the Ultimate Weapon, in fact, following your battle with him at the very end of X/Y his Floette finally reunites with him.

[@PriffyViole]

@Going4Broke2528 That's WHY his Floette probably isn't showing up; she still hasn't forgiven him at this point.

[@Going4Broke2528]

@@PriffyViole Just because it's a Legends game doesn't indicate it'll take place in the past. For all we know, this could be a sequel to X/Y. Even then, the city of Paris, which Lumiose is inspired by, was founded in the century 3bce, so quite a long time ago.

[@PriffyViole]

@Going4Broke2528 Pretty sure I read somewhere that the real-life event the game is based on took place around the same time as Legends Arceus.

Rhyperior isn’t mining it’s construction in general

[@nathanmcclung3564]

It is rumored that in very rare situations togetic can evolve into one of the eon twins meaning they are related. Of course little from what I can find is written about this as it was a post I read years and years ago and apparently it is in a book in one of the games but I have never read it nor have I found such book.

Kinda wonder what would've happened had Silent Hill come after the game.

LOOK AT DARKRAI. You see that red jaw looking neck? Look at its legs. Now look at the tapus. I think darkrai might of been the evil tapu they had to defeat and this is why they are all fairy type to defeat darkrai. Specifically Tapu Koko looks and acts very similar to darkrai. Like they are counterparts. Also this was in sun and moon and the counterpart of darkrai is creselia who is a crescent moon pokemon.

Bianca being female Barry makes more sense than Hop is Hau.
