Heads up about the parrot meme; the issue Minecraft caused was that they used chocolate chip cookies as the item fed to them to make them breed, but chocolate is outright poisonous to parrots. This got pointed out to Mojang, and (partially for accuracy, mostly to avoid setting a bad example for the kids playing) they changed the item used for breeding parrots to seeds, as well as making it so that feeding parrots the cookies anyways would give them a lethal stack of the Poisoned status.

[@Sightnado]

Additional note: On Bedrock, cookies do give parrots Lethal Poison, but on Java they actually INSTANTLY KILL THEM. Bit overkill tbh, Java Edition dev team

Fun fact: It wasn't just one bad hypno that took some kid. Its Moon dex entry mentions how it carries off anyone who has good dreams. I believe the Ultra Sun dex entry means it's not as much of a threat in /Alola/ because komala are around and perpetually sleeping, and thus make for better targets than humans who it would have to expend energy to make sleep.

8:19 Lockstin explained this pretty well a few times but the TDLR is that 1) Alolan Exegguter resembles Draconis Plants and 2) In Hawaii mythology there are these dragon/lizard/gecko creatures called Mo’o (hence the Kommo-O’s name, tho aside from that they aren’t that similar. They’re most similar to Salazzle, actually) that could shapeshift into whatever, and some shaftshifted into trees

[@thehellfirewolf13]

A.Exeggutor being Dragon type is in no way obvious, but if you know it is pretty cool. In Hawaii there is a mythological creature called the Mo'o (pronounced Moe-Oh) and they are magical shapeshifting lizard spirits. And in pokemon, anything magic reptile is dragon type. XD But the reason Exeggutor in particular is dragon type, is because one of the Mo'o's favorite disguises is a palm tree. Additional fact, Salandit and Salazale are also based on the Mo'o since another disguise of the mo'o is a beautiful woman who bewitches men with her pheromones. Also, despite having Mo'o in their name, the Kammo'o line isn't actually based on the Mo'o.

Eelektross was unironically my favourite Pokemon from Gen 5. I was fascinated by 'no-weakness' Pokemon like Sableye and Spiritomb, so a non Ghost/Dark no-weakness Pokemon was super-interesting. Technically, the Eelektross line is the only remaining no-weakness Pokemon. The only way to hit them super-effectively is to eliminate their Ability or to hit them with Thousand Arrows.

[@Justic_]

Considering X and Y are supposedly named after the X and Y axis of a graph/3D, I feel their remakes will be ZX and ZY, adding the Z-axis and also finally giving us Pokemon Z in SOME form. Also, about Celebi turning into a fairy-type, I already brought this up with Victini in the type-combination video, but I'm pretty sure the reason they didn't change the type of any mythical Pokemon is because they limited it to Pokemon that could be caught within X and Y, since players would most likely want to use these Pokemon that received such a major change. But that was obviously still at a time when they were still being very conservative with mythical Pokemon and keeping them for Event-only, ORAS was the first time we got a mythical that was catchable without DLC, and it obviously fit into the story of the Delta-Episode. Pretty sure Gen 7 didn't have that and the next time was only in SwShs DLC.

8:04 Okay here we go Applin is based on the common depiction of a worm inside of an apple. It may also be a pun on the term wyrm, a serpentine dragon, which sounds similar to 'worm'. It is also based on the Lindwurm, a green, serpentine dragon that lives in moutains. Alolan Exeggutor is based on the Dracaena Palm trees, which are often called "Dragon Trees." Turtonator is based on the Mata Mata Turtle, an unusual turtle with a notably spiky shell and monstrous-looking head. and finally Dragalge is based on the Common Sea Dragon.

Small cat heads to dog to bipedal cat with accessories to feminine angel to pink wish dragon or one of the multitude of alternate paths that this could take. Digimon: What is even happening?

[@insanityworks4ussu4skrowyt34]

@@Retro_Red Yeah, Digivolution paths can range from fairly linear(Agumon to Greymon to MetalGreymon to WarGreymon) to "how are these connected?" to "these don't Digivolve into each other? Why?"(Guardromon and Blimpmon, very similar looks yet both are Champion level). Honestly, at this point I've given up trying to find any kind of logic to Digimon lines.

[@charlesruteal9062]

@@insanityworks4ussu4skrowyt34 That's because Digimon naturally has branching paths. Agumon could Digivolve into various flavors of dinosaur, or a centaur man, depend on how you trained/raised it (in the virtual pet/games that use vpet mechanics). Or it would turn into a pile of mucus or a literal turd if you sucked at taking care of it. While there are several instances of Digimon having a clear linear path from the base form to the highest (normal) stage of Mega or beyond (most of the anime heroes fall under this), there are just as many instances of one-off Digimon (or shorter lines that only involve 2-3 stages) that are only tangentially related to what it can turn into. The first season of the anime kind of had the worst of both worlds, though, since IIRC the designs (unlike later seasons or other games/manga) weren't tailor made for the show, so they had to repurpose those separate/one-off Digimon into canon lines. They didn't have a kid angel Digimon, so they made the orange bat hamster the pre-evo of the angel (which I assume is due to the wings). Even lines that flow pretty well, like Biyomon, alternates between being bipedal and having bird-like anatomy for every stage it goes through.

An explanation about the parrot meme. Originally you could feed parrots cookies, but after the community pointed out that cookies are made with cocoa beans they changed the feature to instantly poison and kill the parrot when feeding it a cookie. They also added a splash text saying "don't feed parrots chocolate."

[@writeon2593]

7:22 These two characters in their animes give two very different vibes. If you want a little goofy trickster who thinks he's better than he really is, you want Meowth. If you want a lazy but determined little kitty who has some trauma, Jibanyan is your answer. Two very different characters who serve very different roles and thus, some people will prefer one over the other, some will like neither, and some will like both. Wait, that's basically how any two things that are different will work. My point still stands : coexistence over needless conflict every day of the week.

I had one *_awful_* time in the Tera Water Pikachu raid where someone had the bright idea of using Miraidon. And then, as though giving the boss a terrain boost wasn't enough, it spammed Electro Drift against the Pikachu that obviously had Lightning Rod. This went so far past stupidity and into blatant sabotage that I ended up attacking that perdon's Miraidon in the last seconds because they were as much an opponent as the raid boss. This and some other awful choices from strangers in the Decidueye raid are basically why I no longer participate in 7 star raid events. I'll just lean on my HOME subscription instead.

I also wanted her outfit to be cute but still fit within the confines of a Team Sky uniform which is why she has bike shorts under a dress. And even though I didn't want to create a powerful mary sue character I still wanted my OC to stand out compared to other OCs which I achieved by giving her a basic job and an actual, albeit small, backstory lol. Also as much as I would love to share some more designs with you I'm not entirely sure how that would be achievable lol.

Thank you for being a wholesome channel that more mature people can still enjoy!

22:18 LOOK GARY, THERE I AM! Alomomola honestly has so little to do with Luvdisc outside of appearance that making it an evolution doesn't really fit. Alomomola is more based on healing and isn't really themed around love, whereas Luvdisc is squarely focused on romance.

[@henryellatoysandvideogames8019]

7:27 For me (Henry) Yokai watch was the first monster catching games series, anime show, etc thing I liked and the truth is it was never supposed to be a competitor. They were just inspired by Pokémon (at least from what I’ve heard). Then Pokémon decided to copy Yo Kai. Z-Ring = Yo Kai Watch, Z-Moves = Soultimates, Rotom-Dex = Whisper. It also wasn’t in generation seven they also did something in generation six. Mega Ring = Yo Kai Watch. Now Yo-Kai Watch will always be my favorite, Pokémon still has a place in my heart. People always just get the wrong idea. It wasn’t supposed to be a competitor. I just wish the two fandoms got along. Yokai watch is kind of making a comeback with its 10th anniversary (soon to be 11th). Now it will never have a big of an impact as much as it did in 2013. It might have a little impact. Mikey, if you’re reading this, yes you’re right it will never replace Pokémon, but it’s still a good series and Pokémon fans have to admit it. Thank you for your time. Bu Bye!

Why strangely?

@@BJGvideos because of how everyone seems to look past it due to the cutscenes and the weird US/UM existing instead of a third version.

I do have to say that Tinkaton has entered my top 10 favorite pokémon and that Meowscarada became my favorite grass type.

[@miraculousmongoose]

hail yeah!

[@RabblesTheBinx]

Meowscarada is my favorite Grass-typr, by far. But then, the runners up are Cacturne and Shiftry, so it's not like there's a ton of competition (also Brute Bonnet and Wo-Chien, but, like, I just can't bring myself to put a legendary or legendary-like as my favorite)

[@Chokun-Gaming]

I somewhat agree with the hau meme never understood the hate for hau but at the sametime he wasn't anywhere close to being the best rival. I really enjoy his character.

[@solitare4602]

Yeah, he wasn't the best "Rival", but he may have been the best "Friend" in the series. Although, I'm partial to Nemona.

I think Alolan Exeggutor being Dragon type is a pun on some kind of dragon tree from Hawaii, don't remember the name. I think it's really clever.

9:16 Okay here to help again (literally 3 mins later) Celebi-Is based on a Kodama (Shinyō tree spirit) Meloetta-Is based on a Muse (a goddess in Greek Mythology with the ability to inspire artistic creation) Blissey-Is based on the concept of Nurses/Doctors and Mothers. and finally Bellossom-Is based on a Hula Dancer

Actually, being a tree spirit is right up a fairy's alley.

@@addison_v_ertisement1678 in a way yes but it already had the whole religion thing with it being a Mythical so I guess Pokémon didn't think it through
