The "believed" first death due to people playing pokemon go, can't be seriously blamed on pokemon go, no one playing a video would break into someone's house to "look for pokemon" ... just saying lol

[@sneeu27]

I wouldn't break in either. I would ignore the pokémon if it happens to be in the coordinates or someones yard lol. Any normal person would

[@TytheBandit]

Yeah broke into someone’s house to catch Pokemon. That’s not how that works that was a crime.

[@sinfulmourning2780]

Driving while having the game open should also not be put on the game. It's just common sense not to use your phone at all while driving but playing a literal game?

[@valkialivods8192]

The Arbok did not die, he was able to regenerate. It is talked about in the manga that different patterns on Arboks allow them to be able to do different things. It is even shown in the manga that you can train them to switch patterns even.

Hitodeman/Staryu is able to grow back its points as long as its core is fine.

[@Leto85]

I'm glad to read this. That 'death' bugged me for some reason.

[@Leto85]

Does this mean the Arbok grew a new body, or that the body grew a new head, or both? I'd assume it's the former, but since this is the magical world of Pokémon I'm asking anyway.

Yeah, I never got why they turn up their noses at hacked pokes that don't have illegal moves, abilities, etc. The game was never meant for this competitive level and hacking is so accessible.

[@garchompelago]

I know not all religious people are like this, but I hate overly religious people who labels literally every form of entertainment as "evil" and "sin". Their goal is to make you feel bad for having a form of entertainment and direct all your attention, effort and money to the religion instead of your hobbies. Many years ago, I left a christian church because a few members condemned me because they found out I watch anime and play video games. They told me how im literally going to hell and all that and they instructed me that the time, effort and money that I put into anime and video games, I should just direct it to the church, to god and the religion. Otherwise, I am destined for hell. I left. Screw those kinds of religious people.

[@razettoebonvar]

It's the people who confuse their religious beliefs with the tempting internal desire for Puritanism. People do it all the time with politics, religion, even clubs and fandoms. It's fucking annoying and leads to people loathing the very cause they try to keep pure.

[@CatholicCarlismEnjoyer]

This sounds like a protestant Church.

[@sneeu27]

Im Christian and I see nothing wrong with gaming and anime. Fiction is fiction. The ones at that Church sounds extremely boring. Humans need entertainment. I would go insane and probably depressed without actual entertainment. Not the boring extremists idea of entertainment. Whatever that may be

[@theycallmejodamo]

Okay. Let’s just talk about those last two points real quick. Mr. Mime potentially being Yakuza is amazing. And even as much as I’ve drank in my life, I’ve never thought of throwing shit at anyone as a joke.

[@stardmg]

I'm sure all of those Japanese children who are now well into their 30s and likely haven't even thought about Porygon and Pikachu in years were very offended by that tweet.

[@ladonmccabe]

See, the problems people have with "hacked pokemon" mean nothing in the grand scheme of competition. No one is adding pokemon with stats it can't naturally have, or "event moves it cant have." The only thing it did, was remove how much time was spent getting the Pokémon. "Hacked" Pokémon have no inherent advantage over non hacked Pokémon. And the only people who complains are the people who don't compete, and those who are bad at the game anyways

[@Castcoder]

ESRB had nothing to do with removing gambling. It was PEGI. I always find errors in your video and question why you never provide sources.

[@Protofall]

If that's the only error here, I think that's pretty good. Statistically people are going to mess up in a 30m video at least one time.

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

The ESRB and CERO would be doing the same thing in being inconsistent.

[@RaRa-eu9mw]

Frustrating to see the ganguro myth being given here. Jynx predates ganguro by several years.

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

She’s actually based on the Yamauba, a yokai that resembles a witch that lives in snowy mountains and eat children (Jynx is just a friendlier version of the yokai). In fact, many Pokemon are based on yokai (the Pokemon based on inanimate objects could be based on Tsukumogami).

BDSP being "graphically superior" is wildly wrong if you ask me.

[@Protofall]

I had an argument with someone about this for another game. I had your opinion too, but the other guy clarified the difference between Graphics and Art Style. Graphics is basically the complexity of what's being rendered, so any 3D game is more graphically intensive than most 2D games. But if we're talking about art style, then BDSP is worse than Trubbish. Borderline shovelware.

It's so weird thinking back to the controversy with the recalled pokeball toy and the mass hysteria it caused around the globe. In mexico as I was a 4 year old child I was given an official jolteon and dragonite bouncy ball and then the news about a kid suffocating due to a ball toy erupted around the world and I remember my granny talking about that and all my family warning me about not putting it in my mouth even tho it wasn't even the same kinda toy. However, despite that, those bouncy balls could get stuck in a kid's mouth so it wasn't bad advice regardless. Just very interesting to see how the masses interpret these things. And how it all connecta to the mass hysteria caused by religious groups that literally would latch onto anything to get their point across, or invent their own delusional reasons to preach against a popular thing.

[@garchompelago]

There are complaints that the game were too easy. However when the Mewtwo raid in Scarlet and Violet were released, many fans complained that the raid was too hard and Pokemon shouldnt be that difficult of a game. 🤷‍♂️ You can never please everyone. By the way, as of the time of this video, the Mewtwo raid were the hardest optional boss battle in any Pokemon game thus far. It requires actual strategy to beat and human teamates that knows what they are doing in order to win. The Mewtwo had x50 more than its normal HP and it likes to spam Calm mind so your entire team should simultaneously drop Mewtwo's stats and boost your team's offense for the entire raid. Its doable but it needs teamwork between good players. Though its a limited time raid, it really seperated the pros and the casuals of Pokemon.

I'm a devout Christian, and I honestly don't understand why a lot of Christians/religious people call Pokemon "demonic". I personally know people who believe that, and it just doesn't make sense to me. It's literally just an RPG game series. It doesn't have any demonic/occult storylines, characters, etc. (well, I guess some might think Lavender Town is kinda sketchy because it has ghosts and all-around creepy vibes). And, I suppose coming from a family that always said Harry Potter was demonic (I don't believe that), I can understand the "magic" stuff being triggering to some. But, I mean, come on. They're video games. They're not hurting anything. They're not encouraging kids to do demonic things. They're just fun roleplaying/fighting games.

Usually this sort of thing is done by grifters that are trying to use outrage and such to make money off of a target that is easy to go after, plus while there is still bad groups and such in religion today, back then and the years before it was super easy to just use such things to try and get things cancelled or removed, nowadays most people see it for what it is, noise.

So because the bit you mentioned with Cloyster and Onyx. I'd also like to point out that in Pokemon Y (at least my first time discovering this..) A random NPC gives you a TM 69 labeled "Rock Polish"...just throwing that out there. They knew what they did. lol😅

[@dissect123]

There is also TM17 (Protect) in PokemonXY. It gets handed to you after watching fireworks together with Shauna *wink wink*

[@dissect123]

@NoGliscorNoWinNGNW My sweet summer child. The implication is that you get handed a condom. Shauna even mentions that it is her first time with a boy alone (watching fireworks).

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

The third versions themselves are better money-savers than buying the base games and the DLC. I love Crystal and Emerald. I love Hikari's DP dress, but I do agree that Platinum is better than DP content-wise.

[@dyrr836]

Hitmonchan being named for Jackie Chan always bugged me, like are there not enough famous lightweight boxers you could have based the name on instead?

[@GlowsticksEE]

Well Hitmoncena or hitmontyson doesn’t sound too good does it

[@CantoniaCustoms]

Well hitmoncena would be just as communist as hitmonchan anyways lmao.

[@SavoxYt]

I think someone just made up that part about "Legend of Dratini" partly being banned because Meowth wore a Hitler moustache. There'd been human characters in the series both before _and_ after who had the same moustache.

[@tigerspruce8580]

Man, I dunno, I think the glitchiest pokemon games might be Scarlet and Violet. Despite the patches we got, the game still suffers from slowdown, the ability to willingly clip through the world, pokemon spawn behind walls, and a lot of other issues plague the games. Though, red and blue are still incredibly buggy as well, at least they had the excuse of being the first games. Anyways, this wasn't meant to stir up any controversy or arguing, I was just stating what I noticed in SV. Love your content by the way, keep up the great work!!

[@federicogou]

The fact that the only one I didn't know was the one of Nidoqueen shaking her boobs, lol.

[@anonSPY]

This just showed me how much people love to reach 😂😂

[@A3AnimeArtAwesome]

Another great video! I can tell a lot of research went into this. Love this I learned a lot of new facts

[@justincase1228]

6:20 if I'm not mistaken, those are anglicismo of their English names to Spanish.

[@Magikarp-4ever]

Holy crap I did not expect that to end like that, THATS what alcohol does to you kids lol

[@Guilessf4]

20:15 the devs think they slick lmao

[@bryancollier704]

Justice for Makani Tran!!

[@alphadragonwolfwarrior6373]

Boy, did I grow up in *that* era...

[@av.punk.801]

I know Makani personally. He has a nervous chuckle and stakes were high so he was nervous. One of the only regulars in the card shop i used to work at that would use my pronouns without question

[@sneeu27]

The pronoun crowed needs to accept that most of earths population thinks the pronoun crowed are insane. Acting like a facist child just makes the pronoun people hated. The judge is clearly a narccist. What he did was inexcusable. I hope he got fired and banned from ever becoming a judge again

[@ZeranZeran]

6:19 made me laugh my ass off.. I needed that, ty

[@potat0-q6d]

who would have thought that I was one of the FIRST to discover this great channel

[@Hundura]

3:27 that’s not true If we refer to the games and manga. There have been Pokémon deaths due to battle

[@sneeu27]

Doesn't change that PETA is braindead and doesn't really care about animals. Doesn't change that PETA should be illegal

[@danashton5265]

It is outrageous that the contestant was disqualified for laughing at pronouns. They rightly laughed at such a ridiculous question.

[@Protofall]

Imagine being so insecure you disqualify a kid over a nervous laugh.

[@danashton5265]

It's outrageous. @@Protofall

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

Adults should have learned that kids laugh at stupid questions.

[@sneeu27]

He laughed coz he was nervous. The judge is a narccist and should be fired and banned from ever becoming a judge again

[@jedipadwan20]

2:47 what about blue Raticate clearly it died.?

[@TwizzleCMx3]

The episode with meowth having a mustache wasn't even a "hitler" mustache, also, those mustache styles were popular 10-20 years before Hitler was even able to grow a mustache, buncha bullshit honestly lol same with the other banned episodes I get the porygon one but th others.... there was way worse on kids TV back then lol

[@jascha8681]

Yes, Charlie Chaplin also had a similar mustache. I also never heard that this was one of the reasons that this episode is banned and I live in Germany

[@LuigiTheMetal64]

⁠@@jascha8681That change aged badly because he would also be the basis for Barikooru/Mr. Rime.

[@michaelthem3]

If they wanted to respect everyone in that card game, they shouldn't be asking anyone's pronouns and stuff like that. I don't know if it is just me or the whole situation is just idiotic. Anyone shouldn't be obligated to respond anything, just to please a few. Him laughing, I'm not sure of what triggered that reaction, but if you feel attacked by that, you should check what's on your insides and reflect on what made you feel that way. If you're se secure of who you are, things like that shouldn't bother you.
