Is Pythor Part Fangpyre? [Ninjago Theory]

[@sergioguerrero9433]

This also explains why he doesn’t have greater strength than any other anacondrai. They overhyped the anacondrai in the tournament of elements, but Pythor is utterly weak in the show. He’s only useful when it comes to using his head and turning invisible

[@RVSketch]

Oh I didn't even think of that! You're right! :O

[@pouper2377]

Aaaaaah no pythor isn't weak for two reason. First he is strong in the first season. He 1v1 wu but it's low budget. Second. After the anacondra season pythor have a super strenght with probably a redcone. We can see that on crystallized. Pythor isn't weak but he don't like fight himself because he is a coward.

[@AustinHaines-hn7uy]

Nah Pythor literally 1v1'nd wu (who is LITERALLY the son of the first Spinjitzu master) and most of the time we see him fight, the fight is completely out of his favour

[@yeetusdeletus1827]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Pythor 1v3 3 of the other Serpentine generals? Yeah, at the end, Skales came in with the flute to guarantee a win, but otherwise he held his own.

[@Goremasterhelsing]

The apparent reason why pythor looks diferent is because when he was created the creators didnt have in mind the how the anacondrai race might look since they had only created pythor but when the flashbacks of the snake war came to be they made them with short necks dont know why they just make them with long like pythor but who knows

[@Ram.147]

We know that anything a fangpyre bites turns into a snake. But what if a serpentine is bitten, a mutation, Fangtom has two heads because he accidentally bit himself, so most likely Pythor was bitten by a fangpyre and this most likely resulted in a mutation

[@RVSketch]

Possibly!

[@Dinologan1015]

Originally I assumed it was simply due to him being the general, at least in the earlier original seasons before they kinda retconned his tribe by making all of them have tails in addition to 5 or so leaders. In the end he did have his tribe's staff after all, so that would logically make him have the staff's general transformation. As each anacondri trapped in the tomb would eventually fight and eat each other, as we know. With the staff in there as well the only thing that'd make sense is the last one standing, gets the staff and becomes general. As we see with the hypnobri. I think the reason Pythor is different is because he is the biological general, however the 5 "leaders" took it upon themselves to be the tribe's miliarial generals and pushed Pythor to the sidelines, him keeping his general form despite being called or acknowledged as a lower serpentine. Also his white scales were due to him being bleached by the Devourer's stomach acids, the coloration would have nothing to do with how the fangpyres have white scales. So him being white and how fangpyres have white in them would have no connection at all.

[@ThatOreoMan]

But with the hipnopari the tail is given to who even is declared general not who holds the staff as we see other hipnopari hold the staff and not having a tail and it’s past though who’s the general not biologically

[@ThatOreoMan]

It could be different throughout the tribes but this is why it’s a theory

[@starscream5424]

Nice theory but I think the reason Pythor has a long neck is that when Skales become general he grew a tail but because all the anacondri have tails they grow a long neck instead when becoming general.

[@RVSketch]

But we see a flashback of Pythor before he was a general, and he still had a long neck then: imgur.com/a/ZKy72Y8 That image was when Pythor and the other Anacondrai were locked in the tomb, and at the time Pythor was low ranking. The only reason Pythor eventually became the Anacondrai General is because it defaulted to him when he was the only one left. We also see plenty of flashbacks of the original Anacondrai Generals, and none of them have long necks. ninjago.fandom.com/wiki/Anacondrai_generals#:~:text=gallery

[@Amir_840]

Pythor has a long neck because he first ate an snake and his neck got bigger and when he got trapped he ate the other anacondrai and got a bigger neck and got whitw because when the great devour was death he was white because snake can change their shed colour this is comfirmed by google thats why and general arcturus was the leader and had an small neck and he was the leader so pythor isnt because the long neck the leader hope that helps

[@d.e.g._16]

Great theory that could easly be true! Nice video 😄❤️

[@RVSketch]

Thank you!

[@mohammadtarek3842]

There's a porblem in the theory that remember when Chen and his army wanted to be become anacondria and they needed something from a pure original anacondria in this case Pythor so if Pythor is a hybrid that means that he's not a pure original anacondria.

[@RVSketch]

Oh, I hadn't thought about that! That's a pretty good point. I think my theory could still be true though, since there were a lot of other ingredients in the spell, like the Anacondrai tattoos. Maybe the spell still works with a half-blood Anacondrai as long as the other ingredients (including the tatooos) are there. Plus, Chen and his Anacondrai cultists didn't look the same as normal Anacondrai. True Anacondrai always have black arms and black and gold markings on their chests and tails. They also have gems on their chests (usually red, but the Generals' were geeen and Pythor's is light blue). Picture for reference: static.wikia.nocookie.net/ninjago/images/a/a2/MoS40CondraiAgony.png When Chen and his fellow cultists transformed, they had no gems, their arms were purple instead of black, and they had no black and gold markings on their chests or tails. Instead, they had the stereotypical snake belly pattern. Picture for reference: static.wikia.nocookie.net/ninjago/images/4/44/KapauAnacondrai.PNG The fact that the transformed Anacondrai cultists are missing vital markings and the gems could be because Pythor isn't a true/full-blooded Anacondrai. In fact, the chest/tail pattern of the transformed Anacondrai cultists looks more similar to Fangpyre chest/tail patterns than Anacondrai chest/tail patterns. Picture for reference: encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSgXS6i2smh7-kWNpAxbJ2HqYNvId21EWSJ9w&usqp=CAU

[@mohammadtarek3842]

​@@RVSketch the reason why Chen and his army didn't look exactly like the original anacondria because their transformation wasn't complete yet, and that is why they needed a pure original anacondria.

[@RVSketch]

@@mohammadtarek3842 Oh yeah, I forgot about that 🤔

[@pokemontrainer9285]

That’s a pretty cool conclusion that Pythor might be a hybrid and that really cool 👏🏻👏🏻. I never thought that Clancy could be a hybrid I just thought he had a genetic mutation to make his color different.

[@RVSketch]

Thank you! And I do hope we see Pythor again in Dragons Rising!

[@Legacyfenwick]

Great theory and video! Really well made arguments! Great!!!

[@RVSketch]

Thank you! I've had this theory for a while and thought it was time to make a video 😅

[@Liamking7984]

I always wondered what a fangpyre look liked with one head

[@DiamondRepublic-c9y]

doesnt clancee look like a an anacondrai with green skin

[@RVSketch]

I 100% agree, and I totally would have thought he was half Anacondrai, but it has been confirmed that he's half Hypnobrai and half Venomari in "The Splinter in the Blind Man's Eye" Chapter 12. However, that is technically a fan book by the creator of Ninjago, so maybe it could get retconned and they'll change it so Clancee is part Anacondrai.

[@gracekim1998]

@@RVSketch OR he's all three ;)

[@what-hq1gl]

this theory actually kinda makes sense

[@RVSketch]

thanks! and yeah, I thought so too, even though it is kind of crazy 😅

[@mohammadtarek3842]

There's another secret about Pythor is that how he survived, all his tribe is dead seemingly died from Hunger and he seems to be not hungry at all when lolyd found him, Did he feed on thier corpses to survive? and that can explain his cold personality but it seems that they died a long time ago, this is a confusing situation.

[@RVSketch]

That's true! It's been confirmed that they all ate each other, so I guess Pythor was the last one standing, but when Lloyd released him he didn't look starved or anything - if he was starving wouldn't he have just eaten Lloyd? I've also always wondered how come all the other Serpentine tribes didn't starve - the Anacondrai were apparently the worst in the war, so maybe the humans gave the other tribes food but not the Anacondrai? It's also possible small animals could get into the other Serpentine tombs and maybe plants grew in there, but the Anacondrai tomb was in the desert, so nothing could grow and not much could get in. However, maybe all Serpentine are just able to survive a really long time without food (especially since snakes irl have brumation), but maybe the Anacondrai just decided to fight/eat other even if they didn't really need to.

[@mohammadtarek3842]

About them starving to the point that they ate each other actually according to a story we hear in season 3 which tells that the snakes are who isolated themselves as some kind of protection from the Dark master, Wouldn't be a really stupid move if the anacondria Isolated themselves in a place without food growing and regrowing.

[@RVSketch]

@@mohammadtarek3842 That would indeed be a stupid move 😅. Although, we've seen various Serpentine make plenty other poor decisions, like awakening the Great Devourer even though they knew it would eat everything - they just didn't make the connection that 'everything' would also include them 😅

[@mohammadtarek3842]

​@@RVSketch about the great devourer, I don't think that they know that it will eat "everything" to me It seems that they thought it will eat only humans so they can rule the world easily.

[@RVSketch]

@@mohammadtarek3842 Idk, this clip is what makes me think they knew it would eat 'everything', but didn't realize everything included them 😅 ar-blackshaw.tumblr.com/post/631296500971995136

[@Liamking7984]

I think it would have made more sense if clancee was half venomari and half anacondrai because he has the light green skin of a venomari and his model is an anacondrai model instead of a hypnobrai at least pythor has some features of anacondrai and one feature of a fangpyre

[@RVSketch]

I agree! It really confused me that they made him part Hypnobrai

[@ishaanparthab4549]

It was confirmed that pythor was a mutation. Also pythor was never a general to begin with. Reason I say this was because former showrunner Tommy Andreason confirmed that it was possible pythor was an outcast towards the other anacondrai.

[@Hexan_Flare]

i wonder why he'd have a long tail in the flash back where all the serpentine are locked away if he was supposed to be low ranking and wasn't the last survivor/general yet

[@RVSketch]

Actually, the Anacondrai are unique in that they ALL have tails, even the low-ranking ones. There hasn't been a single Anacondrai with legs :O

[@Hexan_Flare]

@@RVSketch completely forgot that was like the whole "no turning back" type of transformation Chen's followers went through so yeah makes sense. probably embarrassing for Pythor to be "bigger" then all the others but not have the strength-

[@burakardaavc5114]

I think there are two reasons 1) there was no basic anacondrai model when they designed pythor 2) since pythor was the main villain of the first season he had to look more threatening than the other snakes

[@Smurf71q]

Isn't pythor anacondrai

[@KitTkat-oq7dk]

@@RVSketch well being that all of the serpentine were at war with each other I do not think that anacondry and vangpire imbreeding would be plausible and how come pythor only displays anacondry ability’s and that pythor has such honor for his race and being part fangpire would lead him to be an outcast but he’s not infact he took control over all of the anacondry after he ate all of them

[@RVSketch]

@KitTkat-oq7dk Well, even though they were all at war, a Hypnobrai and Venomari had a kid, which was Clancee. And Pythor was not in charge of the Anacondrai - it has been confirmed he was actually low-ranking among the Anacondrai. The only reason Pythor was the 'Anacondrai General' in the show is because he was the only one left lol. He made himself the General because all the Anacondrai were dead! The other Anacondrai definitely didn't put him in charge lol And the creator of Ninjago actually said there is a possibility that Pythor was an outcast, just like Clancee: twitter.com/TommyAndreasen/status/857296156099039239?t=0B0LLsf5eMcSYvqZCixPVQ&s=19 Also, the reason all the Anacondrai died is because they ate each other when they were locked away. So it's possible the only reason Pythor survived is because the others didn't want to eat a hybrid. Also, Clancee is half Hypnobrai and half Venomari, but he doesn't have either one's abilities - he can't hypnotise or shoot venom. So it wouldn't be weird for Pythor to not have any Fangpyre abilities if he's part Fangpyre. And Pythor's honour for his race could just be because he was raised in the Anacondrai tribe. Maybe his parent who was a Fangpyre abandoned him or wasn't in his life.

[@Ram.147]

​@@RVSketchmost likely Pythor was at one point bitten by a fangpyre, which resulted in a mutation. Fangdom has two heads due to accidentally biting itself, so if a fangpyre bites a serpentine it will result in a mutation
