The Most HORRIFYING Town In Pokemon Ruby And Sapphire

[@BirdKeeperToby]

Look I'm glad we're all enjoying Wandavision :') It rocks! I will say I did a poor job of explaining the link between the paradox and Teleportation. The main reason why it's similar is if the teleportation is destroying your atoms when you teleport. It's not like just disassembling a lego set and clicking the pieces back together later so much it's destroying the lego set and then using the fabric of the universe to create new identical lego pieces. Sorry for the poor explanation

As Someone who is playing Omega Ruby right now and afraid of heights, I quite enjoyed this video. I find that getting used to the height and calming myself down helps with the fear, but I never had been on a plane. I bet I will get scared when I go on a plane for the first time. Have a nice day Toby!!

[@loturzelrestaurant]

@@thebluebuilder Yeah?

[@thebluebuilder]

@@loturzelrestaurant Yep. Planes go up so high and I have never been that high up before. Also, like Toby, I can't ride rollercoasters. Tried once. Was so scared that I curled myself into a ball and didn't look up until the end of the ride. I feel Toby's pain (tho it's on a smaller scale).

Lavaridge definitely seems like one of those very old Japanese villages that are deep in the countryside and are relatively hard to reach using conventional transportation methods. Lavaridge doesn't a lot of thru traffic, and a lot of their commodities are probably made in-town. The Poke Mart likely uses potions made from herbs cultivated from the same farms as the herb shop, and may even have a Poke Ball crafter that builds their stock of Poke Balls. It's hard to live under a volcano, but maybe living there has benefits due to the sooty soil giving the plants grown more nutrients. Life finds a way.

I believe the teleportation in pokémon uses psychic energy to bend space and time to creating a very temporary wormhole type thing. Besides bypassing questions of ethics and humanity, it is also more in line with our understanding of psychic powers in pokémon than the alternatives.

[@arjunabhyankar85]

This video just provided a whole new perspective on teleportation for me It was nothing like I had imagined

[@fruit3193]

I’m pretty sure that the first “problem” you suggested isn’t actually a problem. Using the Earth as your “anchor” (so everything moves relative to Earth instead of vice versa) should make Earth’s movement through space negligible when you’re teleporting around the surface of it. Maybe the rotation could be an issue, but if you don’t carry over your previous momentum (and immediately adopt a momentum to match the new location), then it shouldn’t be an issue either. Relativity is weird.

[@neonmole9453]

Yeah, the whole teleportation thing is creepy when you really think about it, same with cloning and transferring of memories. It's one of the reasons why Soma freaked me out so much when I watched a playthrough of it, because the original consciousness is still present while the new one gets to carry on. Michael Crichton, the guy who wrote Jurassic Park, wrote a book that covered time travel in the same way as well, with characters being disassembled down to the atomic level to be reconstructed centuries in the past, and it says that they are killed, but that their memories are still intact so they're still the same people. It's an existential bundle of fun

As for the momentum "issue" it actually isn't an issue. If you were moving to somewhere else with a different rotational momentum it might be an issue but it likely won't be since you're just matching the same rotational speed and directional momentum as the planet you're on. At least this should hold true for a few degrees of latitude or longitude on earth.

Blackthorn City has everything to make you hate it, especially if you plan to challenge Clair. So, first of all, similar to Lavaridge, it's on a mountain. Except instead of having to go through a volcano, you have to go through a really cold cave first. The Gym has plenty of lava though, and I have no idea how it got here, but I fear to think of it too much. All I know is that you can't force me to get inside. Dragon's Den is the last dangerous place around here, but there's Whirlpool there, so surfing is probably not so fun. As such, Blackthorn is probably the worst town in the Pokemon universe, not because of any particular reasons (outside the Gym maybe), but because every part of it is sure to have something you'll dislike.

[@MidoriNatsume]

I must say, using the SS Anne to explain the Ship of Theseus is kinda nice. Points for including philosophy.

[@Kahtisemo]

Its funny because as soon as you said Lavaridge my brain just went "YES!" And, like, not only is it in a near impossible to reach location (just think, the cable car is fairly modern and that only makes it easy to get to the crater not to the city itself which require Jagged Pass) but as brought up with the ash fall, and high elevation probably already making it harder to breath for outsiders, it's dangerous. And an underlying tidbit to all this is how the game seems to acknowledge it since Lavaridge is famous for its herbal medicine and the hot springs are said to have some near magical properties. A few NPCs say they do the hot springs daily, maybe out of tradition but also maybe it's the only way it's citizens have lived as long as they have is a certain dependency of daily purification from the poisons in the area. Or just stay inside since most besides like a kid or two everyone outdoors is at the hot spring / sand bath area which no surprise is attached to the Pokemon Center. Maybe so it can be free to any visitor as they may need the healing bath as soon as they come out of the Jagged Pass too. It's an unspoken reality to the in-verse world that players just don't have to think about. 😱

[@RebelliousTreecko]

[@lianaverwood9810]

There is *one* way to reach Lavaridge Town you haven't considered... ...Become a Millionaire, and buy an Acro Bike, or if you're a stickler for the money cap, just steal one. Mauville City is within your reach, and using one would even let you climb the mountainside of Mt. Chimney afterwards (if you were able to survive without Ash killing you, that is).

[@matthewdavenport9549]

Teleportation doesn't necessarily have to consist of your atoms being ripped apart and a new version of you being created (which, arguably this happens all the time since our cells are constantly dying and being replaced). But, teleportation could effectively work through concerted motion of your atoms. Electrons in your body can move at quite incredible speeds and can be incredibly long distances away from your body. For example, there is a discrete probability that at any point in time an electron that is associated with one of your atoms could be on the moon. Electron movements in real life are incredibly random though and have no effect on our body. But, this begs the question of, what if every electron belonging to one of your atoms suddenly made a concerted movement? The electrons would likely drag that atom with it. So, what if every electron in your body made the same concerted movement? How quickly would your atoms move with those electrons?

[@sagacious03]

Okay analysis, although I can't really say that I feel that I entirely agree. We see that Teleport works, no matter what unofficial fan theories may say. Teleport doesn't take us to space, planetary rotation be darned; We see this because Teleport has never taken anyone to space by accident in Pokemon, even when in the anime, Togepi, a Baby Pokemon, used it via complete chance with Metronome. Likewise, no Abra or Ralts will accidentally space you.& Pokedex entries have detailed Abra being known to be confused when they teleport to unfamiliar locations by accident; That the Abra are found, observed & documented doing as such implies they're still on Earth, not to mention alive. Plus, there's the old man who has his Abra teleport people as a service in the Johto Pokemon League; It would be strange for someone to spend their old age offering teleporting to people right before they challenge the league, only for none of the people to return after they get teleported away to prepare or such; If he were trying to help people be ready to challenge the league, it'd seem against his character to do something his observations tell him is reducing the number of challengers. & If Teleport it transported you to another, identical universe, it would have to be one without a pre-existing you, in which case, why would anyone -Ex: Your rival.- recognize you? If it DID have a pre-existing you in this new universe, you'd now have a doppleganger running about. Hope you like fighting an identical team to become Pokemon League Champion. Still, a decent video. Thanks for uploading!

@@pkmntrainermark8881 the point of the debate is that the version of you at the other end of the teleportation is made up of entirely new and different atoms than the you before teleporting, so some people say that it is no longer you because you're made up of different atoms.

But that's just my opinion

[@HedeccaTamer]

When it comes to the ship/Trigger's broom, I say the original ship/broom with all the parts replaced is the real one, since that has the essence and history of the original, but a new one with the original parts would just be that. No more than a replica. However, the Sugababes were a 3 piece girl group formed in the 90's, but over the years kept changed members, and ultimately in 2010 they released music with the final lineup change, where not one of the members was in the original lineup. The original 3 members, Mutya, Keisha and Siobhan, formed a group called MKS. And I honestly can't decide which of the two groups is actually the Sugababes.

The solution to the problem is actually quite simple all you have to do is fold space-time onto itself, this is very idea behind Hoopa's rings.

I don't have any phobias that make certain modes of travel an issue, but certain travel CONDITIONS can definitely make me anxious. Where I'm from driving on snow is just plain hazardous (we don't get snow or any winter weather often and roads aren't built to handle it, also winter tires are not legally allowed). So routes like Sinnoh's route 216 and Kalos's route 17 are sources of anxiety. Walking isn't an option really and riding a Mamoswine cuts through the snow drifts but does NOTHING to protect you from those cold winds. As it is mechanical travel is hazardous and pokemon travel is frigid cold. I would want to skip those routes altogether

[@Cheerybelle]

To respond to teleportation thing. On point 1: Relativity. Besides, the fact that Teleport can work in the first place implies that, if it isn't interdimensional, it must be relativistic teleportation. On point 3: Souls. The existence of ghosts and channelers and such means that souls exist, which, if readily measurable, can easily prove if the person on the other end is the same as the original. Perhaps more supernaturally inclined trainer classes could be very useful for that. On point 2: If it were that easy to warp things between existences, why would the Cozmo et al require so much Infinity Energy, mega life energy, and a pure meteor shard to shift the meteorite to another existence in the Delta Episode? Why are Alola's box legendary trio so special if they can merely create Ultra Wormholes? ...I mean, my counterpoints aren't the strongest, but I still feel like it's no so typical for 'mons to be able to shift realities.
