Fun fact, Cynthia loving ice cream isn’t just a head canon- it’s fact in the anime. She would always be at ice cream stands taking a billion years to choose, it was hilarious

[@kylajensen1957]

I remember that! I laughed out loud during that scene in BW when she got a really serious face after talking about her research, and everyone flips out thinking somethings wrong, only for her to say she's finally decided what Bearticone she wants and everybody groans/face faults

[@kedharswaminathan7571]

My headcanon is that Ash isn’t actually as dense as he seems. He actually gets what romance and having romantic feelings and understands but probably hides it because he enjoys messing with his friends. Also seeing Brock strike out with literally any girl has probably taught not to be so forward with his feelings.

Nah, she just used the Pokémon equivalent of Find My Friends. I mean, she calls you on her Rotom Phone sometimes, so it’s not like it’s *unlikely*. Plus, it also kinda feeds into the whole “Nemona’s basically a yandere but just because she wants friends” idea.

[@yourmajestysilveroftherats4609]

professer oak has been keeping ash from learning about paldea because he knows for a fact he would catch 90 more Tauros and he doesn't have the space to keep them all. I also think Ash can tell all Tauros apart like Brock can with nurse joy.

It's shown in one episode that ash CAN at least tell his Main Tauros apart from the rest, so he likely can.

[@chocodonut495]

I have a few head cannons. 1. The reason Pokémon seem to tolerate the pain of mega evolution is because of how much they trust their trainer. 2. The Ghost gym leaders Morty and Allister are besties. 3. Blue's favorite food is Hersheys Chocolate, don't ask.

[@Pastel_Diamond_Studios]

My head cannon is that Volo is at least a little sleep deprived, he seems like the type of person that would just look for ruins or just try to get as much info on Hisui's legends long into the night and not realize how long he's been out for and just say "Wait, crap, when did it become night?"

[@Pastel_Diamond_Studios]

@@makeeeveeacupcake I also imagine that he started have one of his Pokemon sitting next to him to notify him when it gets dark, most of the time it's Arcanine because it doesn't sleep unless it's trainer does

[@Pastel_Diamond_Studios]

More legends arceus headcannons have entered my brain space so I'm gonna add them here: Zisu and Ingo are good friends and battle each other often Volo is terrified of the luxury line because that's funny to me. Adaman likes to star gaze when he isn't rushing a lot (Mai got him into it to make him chill the hell out) Laventon adopts both Akari and Rei because he is a dad at heart. Cylene has a collection of katana's Kamado punched an ursaring once and lived because he has that energy. Ok I'm done now lol

[@EcnavMC]

@@Pastel_Diamond_StudiosI like your ones about Volo. There’s a theory that Volo is a time traveler like the player, but from the past instead of the future, and so I always think of headcanons involving him with that idea in mind, and yours don’t break the idea. All the other ones are great, too.

[@triggeredcheese5318]

Have a headcanon of my personal favorite Pokemon, Delphox. They weren't always fire type, but they evolved to gain the fire typing because they were burnt at the stake for witchcraft. They gained the fire typing to resist the flames and take control of them

[@spiderriszer7856]

[@kingpz9739]

[@MercuryA2000]

So if we get a legends game with delphox, they start as a psychic type and maybe get the dark type? With dex entries suggesting a connection with immolation? Honestly really cool.

Kalos, ~1430 AD: Alpha Delphox, leading an army of Braixen and Fennekin against the church: “WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW”

[@sonictennyson2201]

Really late to the party but my favorite headcanon is that Steven Stone actually just wanted an excuse to go rock-hunting in Emerald and that's why Wallace is champion in that one game.

"So anyways, here is the bag of badges, anyways byeeee!" "Wait Steven- And he's gone..."

One of my headcanons is that due to being so close to the ultimate wepon and getting infected with the radiation, the Kalos gang (Serena, Calem ect) either gain longer life spans or shorter life spans depending on which version you play

[@Hydraina]

That's so metal

[@mjrtaurus2714]

My headcanon is that Giovanni didn't abandon Silver because he didn't care for the kid. He did it because he didn't want to risk his son getting caught in the crossfire of the literal SWAT team raiding the gym (as seen in Generations) or Interpol chasing him down. Making Silver think he was doing it purely for selfish reasons was to ensure he didn't follow.

[@luckyloveslol]

I like that headcannon- I like it when villains actually care for their kids!

[@089parasol]

I have 2 headcanons: 1. I like to think that in the Pokemon World, nobility are just named after letters (ex. AZ or N) because that's how culture surrounding nobles works for them 2. I like to think that Raihan and Iono have a friendly rivalry of sorts since they are both internet celebrities. I imagine they do the "Catch random Pokemon, then battle" thing, but with real Pokemon, and they stream the entire thing on PokeTwitch.

Akari is the adopted child into the creation trio, but also the universal favorite of all 4 of the family. It'd also be cool to see Akari commanding Unown

[@remcrimson2750]

Meanwhile, Rei while also adopted was also very neglected by the creation quartet due to being a male protagonist except for Giratina who took him in as its own into the Distortion World due to them relating on both being neglected by Arceus. (Even though Akari is still Giratina's fav) I can see if Akari can command the Unown perhaps Rei's deeper connection with Giratina allow him to open portals to the Distortion World or maybe can do a Volo and just summons Giratina from the Distortion World if needed.

Couple small headcanons of mine related to some of the Champions’ Pokémon: -Cynthia’s shellos evolved after getting its head stuck in a jar of rare candies. No particular reason for this one I just think it’s a funny visual. -Lance has 3 dragonites because while looking for a dratini he ran into 3 of them who happened to be siblings, and, not wanting to separate one from it’s family he just decided to keep all 3. -Steven’s Armaldo and Cradily knew eachother before the extinction event and became inseparable after being revived.

[@bruhhhhh998]

The one with the trio siblings of dragonite is pretty wholesome. Reminds me of Bob Ross "draw a branch, but draw another so he's not alone,".

[@shinyvictoy1272]

I didn't know Lance could be that nice 😅 I feel like he's the only champion that isn't nice

[@AdeleineFelina]

To add to the whole “shellos evolved with it’s head stuck in a rare candy jar” thing, I can imagine that she(the now gastrodon) only got her head stuck post evolution where her horns made her unable to get her head back out, leading to her and Cynthia panicking as they both tried to free her.

[@seineevee]

I have a few headcanons! - The Scarlet/Violet protags (Florian/Juliana) see each other in their game counterpart uniforms when they look in the mirror. At one point, they realize they can talk to each other. - The PLA protagonist is the professor’s assistant in DPPT. (Bonus: I see Dawn/Akari as the PLA protag/Professor’s assistant) - The Kalos Queen in the anime acts as a sort of political figure beyond performances and press - After Ash’s run in the anime, he and his mom live in Pallet Town half the year and with Professor Kukui the other half - The BW protag counterpart you meet in the Battle Subway used to live in Nuvema, so which character is the protagonist depends on whether their parents decided to move or not. - The Battle Subway counterpart is also the older sibling of the BW2 protagonist, and occasionally visits them in Aspertia. - Mallow takes a cross-continental journey to explore the variety of regional dishes and it inspires her to learn about the other regions’ cultures. - The Pokespe dexholders (especially the younger ones, ESPECIALLY Sun and Shield) take bets as to which region will have a world-ending catastrophe which needs to be prevented by new Dexholders next. White participated once as a joke and got both the disaster and the region correct. - Megastones and Keystones act as a sort of regulator or conductor for bond energy, making Mega Evolutions generally less painful. - To add to my last one, the reason Ash and Greninja had such a difficult time regulating their Ash-Greninja form was because they didn’t have Mega or key stones. It’s like shooting a hundred bolts of lightning with no direction. - On the same vein of thought, Mega Evolution is only painful if there’s a disconnect in emotions between trainer and Pokémon. Part of the reason it was deemed unsafe/harmful in the gameverse is because the XY games let the protag Mega Evolve their Pokémon regardless of friendship or affection levels. - (Based off Swamp 151’s headcanon in the video) Starters are specially bred, and there’s often not enough for each new trainer, so many will choose to go without. Priority goes to people living nearby a regional professor’s lab. I wrote a lot 😅

[@CaptainObliviousV]

I completely agree with your mega evolution points. Given the info we have, I’ve always viewed the bond and side effects as two sides of the same coin. It’s perfectly demonstrated in the XY anime too with Korrina’s Lucario. It does make me wonder though, did the anime inspire the side effect portion of the lore or was that always intended but they didn’t know how to express/implement it in the games at the time for some reason? Also, I can see Blake trying to stop the betting and by the time Henry and Casey join he places a stack of bills in front of Sun with a note stating whatever will end up happening when SV starts.

[@Ninjacat429]

I think it would definitely be a fun idea for the two protags in S&V to talk to each other through a mirror, knowing that they both live in different worlds. I also think it would be cool if Hikari/Dawn were to be the new assistant in PLA to prof. Laventon. I've had the same idea in that she does since she doesn't find a way home because a certain Space Llama was a jerk and didn't let her go home. I also agree with the mega evolution statement. Q

[@jorgegonzalezavila9376]

Your Legends Arceus headcanon is actually as far from actual canon as it can be, funnily enough. In Masters, it's confirmed that the canon protagonists are Dawn and Rei, and none of the four are related to each other, as far as they know.

[@MoCrowRose]

Riddle me this: Mallow and Arven meet in Alola, Arven there for foreign ingredients, and Mallow is taking over at the restaurant for the day. They have a cook off and forever become cooking rivals. They have another cook off every two months.

[@AutumnBlaze689]

A head canon I think is really fun is that Red enjoys karaoke and invited Blue and Leaf to join him and that is the only time he consistently speaks. And as such Blue and Leaf try and get Red to speak more outside of karaoke nights.

[@AutumnBlaze689]

I know Red finds words unnecessary thanks to his bond story in Masters so I wanted to think of a time you can consistently hear his voice

[@Grimmjowluver123]

I have a random little headcanon or four: 1) Part of the reason Rose sponsored Leon was because Leon reminded him of, not only himself, but of Peony. And Rose, wanting that connection again, ends up attempting to replace Peony with Leon. Intentional or not. I’m thinking of turning this into a post series, but I think it’s a fun/interesting thought. 2) Not starting off as a headcanon, I can see Lance wanting to take Silver under his wing, not only for his potential, but because he wants to give Silver a stable home. Knowing that Silver is Giovanni’s son and was essentially abandoned by him, Lance wants to help Silver by giving him stability and someone to confide in. I also feel that Lance would feel connected to Silver because Lance and Giovanni had gifts due to them being born in Viridian Forest. And Silver most likely have inherited those gifts, so Lance feels less alone in the world. 3) Raihan raised Goomy because he loves them and will gift his gym trainers with one before they leave. He also always carries one with him and his Goodra is a total helicopter parent. 4) Leon and Cynthia are actually good friends and Leon will visit her when he visits Sinnoh. Cynthia also knows all of the best ice cream parlors and Leon definitely got lost in the Distortion World at least once.

My head cannon as to why certain Pokémon can’t be transferred to certain regions is because they either can’t get in because of customs/border control or because they are too attached to the region they are currently in. I like the border control one because I like the image of them rejecting Arceus from entering Kanto

[@usinklee8673]

My headcanon is that all the champions keep in touch with each other and talk about their hobbies. I could really see Steven and Cynthia chatting together because they both have interests in ancient mythologies and remnants of the past like rocks or ruins, or Lance and Leon because they would talk about capes, their adventures as champions and how Charizard isn't a Dragon type lol.

Ergo all past paradoxes of mega Pokémon loosely look like their Megas. 3: Nemona’s idol is Ash Ketchum. We even see her dye a streak of hair to resemble ash’ indigo cap logo and her using the electrical rodent of the region.

[@kylajensen1957]

I have a headcanon that's a full-on story in the making, revolving around N's mother. 1) N's mother has the ability to speak to Pokemon as well. It's an inherited ability (there's a chance if N had children they could do it too) 2) she was manipulated by Ghetsis too. I once imagined an entire story where it was a whole SpottedleafxThistleclaw scenario (if you know, you know) and hecka toxic but she was too young to realize it until it was too late to back out. That leads directly into theory 3) N's mother tried to escape with N, only being able to hide him in the woods before Ghetsis caught her and got rid of her. Or, alternatively, Ghetsis quietly disposed of her after she'd had a son with her gift, then left N in the woods to ensure he was proficient at using this inherited gift before Ghetsis began training him to be king.

[@tirzahroseroot]

I love this headcanon!

[@flameosaurus1832]

In contrast to my Cynthia headcanon, I think it’s funny to think the least popular protagonists (such as Kris or Lucas, who I’m pretty sure are the least popular overall) have secretly plotted on ways to cause the downfall of the more popular protags.

[@Mystic_Warriors]

N does not have social anxiety, but he's ABSOLUTELY socially awkward THE SUBMAS TWINS FOUND EACHOTHER IN THE END, I DONT CARE HOW but this hc allows me to sleep at night :,) Arven has tried to teach the player how to make sandwiches, and fails N and player withhold a friendship after the main events of the blwh game

[@claran3616]

The submas twins ABSOLUTELY fixed this mess, but not before one or both of them had to go through a games worth of content about it

[@JoeFanik]

My headcanon for SV is that the two protagonists (Florian and Juliana) are twins with Florian being shy and timid while Juliana is energetic and joyful. Florian would do Victory Road because he has a crush on Nemona and Juliana would join Arven to go on exciting adventures.

[@Eterco]

I think a lot of the newer protagonists are twins, mainly because they no longer appear as rival characters. Hilda and Hilbert also apply to me due to their similar names.

[@The_Darke_Lorde]

Indo the same, but Juliana's crushing on Nemona because Nemona's so tough and cool, and she gushes about her to Florian every night, but always ends her lesbian gushing with something that implies she's not into women, but Florian eventually cracks with the obvious gayness of his wombmate and just, at one point, asks her what she'd immediately think if HE said all that about Nemona. Juliana got PISSED and started ranting about he couldn't crush on her because Nemona was HER rival. He then points out she assumed he was crushing on her. Their mother could've swore she heard a dozen Pokémon eggs hatching the night before.

In my rewrite for SV, they're twins but Juliana got sent into the past with AI Sada to some unspecified point in time, probably not at the same place as Sada, and now Florian is super depressed because he thinks all of his family is dead. We haven't had a depressed protag before, unless you count Red post his game or something in SPECIAL i don't know about. Seems funny. And then the time machine could activate again sending Turo and Florian into the future and bring Sada and Juliana back to the present, swapping the MCs until they get Florian back.

[@Need4SIeep]

I have a couple of head canons but here's a few 1) In the two years between BW & BW2, Hilbert/Hilda were murdered by Ghetsis on Route 10 whilst they were looking for N. Ghetsis then caused a rock slide blocking off the route and hiding the body 2) The reason that Red just stands there on Mt. Silver is because he was led on a wild goose chase by Mew to the summit and then when he got there, just decided to wait until Mew showed up 3) The Dawn/ Lucas that got sent back in time in PLA caused a bit of a paradox and end up being their own ancestors. Then they're born go on their journey get yeeted into the past by Arceus and the cycle repeats

[@tirzahroseroot]

The first one is so sad and dark!

[@witheringlunatic]

I really don’t think Ghetsis would do that tbh. I know he was spiralling into insanity after his first defeat but he probably knew to keep quiet and bide his time. He’s manipulative and calculating, not murderous. Well until he says he’d freeze you which at that point he fully broke and went mad due to the fear of failing again and being “weak” in his own mind. Also the death of Hilda and Hilbert would be noticed by a lot of people, even if it was hidden. It’s a very dark headcannon though. /gen

[@darknessknows1235]

Honestly I imagine BW Protags just left Unova and went in the opposite direction of N who visited unova more than they would have thought because he wanted to take care of the old team Plasma that redeem themselves. The fact that they intended on having the Protag show up in the PWT only supports this imo

[@endergeo116]

1. Volkner and Cyrus are brothers. They have similar hairstyles and are interested in machinery. Cyrus is said to have been born in Sunnyshore. Cyrus is obviously the older brother. Volkner was the favorite child. Volkner and Cyrus don’t acknowledge each other because Volkner thinks that Cyrus ran away/died and Cyrus would rather not think about Volkner or any of his family. 2. The protagonist of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers was actually born in Viridian Forest. In the Pokémon Adventures Manga, people get powers if they’re born in Viridian Forest. The Explorers protagonist got the ability to see into the past and future.

[@Eterco]

Pokemon works on a sort of synergy. Some people work better with pokemon, and others work better with specific types. That's why there are so many type specialists, because some people can train just one type better. It also explains why most people don't have full teams, they can't use pokemon as well, at least not as many. On the other side, that makes the champions and more specifically the Protagonists, prodigies, because they can train any and all pokemon and do it extremely quickly (exp share). Pokemon raising and battling isn't easy, but the protagonist is just better at it.

My head cannon is that Cyrus made it out of the distortion world and came to appreciate the value of all of the world’s contradictions and now helps propel science forward from behind the scenes which is why tech sky rocketed so fast in the series after his game

[@BJGvideos]

I like the idea of him recovering. He got redemption arcs in two different manga series and BDSP implies that he's started to change.

[@DecoyAnimates]

My headcanon is that Red is really a chill guy who was way too good at pokemon, so he just needs a hug

[@rekc_bcq4816]

I think Cogita insinuates the head canon about the Legendaries. She says that humans will die and the legend will move on. I’m inclined to believe that Cogita was saying exactly what that head canon is.

[@jenniferdaniels701]

Cynthia and ice cream- Now with Scarlet/ Violet making different foods help with different things, like defeating or finding certain types of pokemon, she must have known that, and needs to pick what will help her most in the near future. My original headcannon- Max must have brought home all kinds of pidgey, wurmple, rattata, etc., begging his parents to let him catch them. They kept putting their foot down, and had to make a rule that neither of their children would get a pokemon early. May was cool with it because she was afraid of it, and once she got over that fear, still didn't want to get into trouble for catching a pokemon for him.

Siebold is the Pokemon equivalent of Gordon Ramsey. This includes the dozens of restaurants, the mitilian (I currently have no way to spell check that) stars, and the TV shows. He's from lower Galar (equivalent to Scotland) and swears enough to make even Drake blush.

IT'S SO FUCKING BURNT NOT EVEN BURN HEAL CAN FUCKING FIX IT

[@theknightwithabadpictotall7639]

(Don't bother with the username, KZbin decided that now it's too big for some reason) Here are 3 of my own headcanons: - After the stuff that happened with Volo in Legends: Arceus, Giratina realized its mistakes and took off to become a better Pokémon. That's why, in Platinum, it was against Cyrus instead of with him. - When the Pokémon world first became habitable, Arceus created Mew as a sort of Adam and Eve. There were many of them, and then they eventually went on to evolve into different Pokémon (like, irl evolution, not Pokémon) since their DNA is so diverse. But a few of them still remain unevolved today, hence how we can still rarely find them. - In the wild, Pokémon can evolve as needed without being restricted by levels or friendship, explaining the underleveled Pokémon such as the level 25 Volcarona in B2W2 or wild friendship evolutions like Leavanny in rustling grass in some areas of Unova.

[@littlelillyshow8308]

I have a headcanon that wild Pokémon imitate humans, or Pokémon owned by trainers. I can just imagine wild Pokémon all getting together in the middle of a forest, bringing berries of all types, like a festival of some sorts. Just imagine a Gengar talking to his friend Garchomp well roasting a citrus berry over a fire a Delphox made, Or a Haxorus sharpening a log to look like a beer mug, Or perhaps a Gardevoir talking to best bud Hatterene about how the kids are doing. The reason why they do this? To make them look smarter. I mean, humans have pushed their society forward in such a big way, they’re able to capture God. Why wouldn’t Pokémon want to be like them?

[@fnafbendyranger123x]

Ok the thought of that makes me smile

[@dreammareshine]

I have an odd headcanon when it comes to the version exclusive gym leaders of Galar, more specifically Allistor and Bea. Though i did make this concept as more OC Parallels being opposite gender twins when i first made it. ~Unlike Melonie and Gordie there isn't a clear explaination of their existance in the other game. ~ It goes off the idea of each game being a different universe. ~ I headcanon they have a different goal in the other game: ~Allister in the sword universe never got in the position to become the gym leader he is in the Shield universe. Instead Allister has a goal to befriend or catch all ghost types and possibly travels to different regions to obtain that goal. ~Bea has taken more of an interest in training herself and her fighting type pokemon possibly to take on the gym challenge instead of being a gym leader herself or just to be an ultimate fighting type trainer. Training in isolate areas similar to the place she was training in her Twilight Wings episode.

[@lasercraft32]

8:10 I'd like to ALSO note that Silvally's ability is called "RKS System," and is directly based on Arceus' ability in canon.

[@Rotom2304]

My headcanon is that Rotom being a ghost type and being the Pokedex is why the Pokedex is more consistently dark nowadays. Golbat getting drunk off of too much blood and Primape getting so angry it dies wasn't talked about until the Rotom dex in gen 7.

[@spindash64]

In Gen IX, Rotom decided to leave CD’s of System of a Down around the Paldea region and enjoy the chaos

I feel like Bede would be the kind of friend to notice his friend's shoe is untied and without saying anything he just bends down and ties it in a double knot and he then unties and double knots the other one for good measure, but like only after his apprenticeship with Opal, before then he wouldn't give a shit.

[@royaloverlord1987]

I have a few headcannons mostly based on Masters. 1. Red and Ethan have a sort of older brother younger brother relationship. I like to imagine that they're so close, many people mistake them for being related, and neither of them correct anyone. 2. Silver, Gladion, and N all occasionally talk to each other about their parental issues, this eventually turned into a club where anyone with parental issues could join. 3. Archie sometimes watches over Tate and Liza, and the twins call him Uncle Archie. that's all

[@claran3616]

Add Arven to that mix lol

[@rells2311]

Headcanon: Nemona is neurodivergent Not sure how common this thought process is, but her being completely hyperfixated on battling honestly makes me feel seen and like I'm not alone in obsessing over things I really like

[@shadowwerewolf332]

My head canon is that the real reason you can’t find Zorark in gen 5 is that there hiding as people(evil gen 5 team ). And N’s Zorark is his sibling. Which is why he can talk to Pokémon because he is half Zorark.

[@vesselthanatos3033]

My headcannon is that Nemona is depressed. Being a bit dramatic, but i believe there might be more to her bubbly, friendly, battle-crazed personality than we give it credit for. At a young age, she became the student council president, is the top student, and is a champion, this leads to kids kinda fearing getting too close to her, like how the team star grunts in front of the school were afraid when Nemona showed up. Nemona also talks to you and teachers behind closed off areas mostly for adults and rarely interacts with other trainers, inclusing strong ones like Arven and Penny. She's also the rich daughter who's father is on the board of the company that makes the rotom phone. Nemona is intimidating to those who know her, leading to her wanting to make friends with those who don't know her for her accomplishments or her status, rather as a friend on an equal level to her, as to why she decided to restart her journey for the player character.

[@tangytangerine1904]

This is a bit embarassing, but ever since I was a kid, I’ve had this head cannon that when Pokémon go inside their pokéballs, the inside of the ball transforms into a home that the Pokémon would consider comfortable. It’s cuz I’d feel bad if it was just a cold metal sphere. Also, because of Pokémon ranch, I have a head cannon that when Pokémon are put into the PC boxes, they get transported to a big lush open farm that they can play on (also because I’d feel bad if they were just completely digitalized and stuck doing nothing, while still being conscious). This head cannon of mine was also supported by the little field Pokémon from your boxes play in in Legends Arceus

[@pokeriolu]

lucky for you the mini rooms are canon

[@tangytangerine1904]

@@pokeriolu I HAD NO IDEA, THATS SO COOL

[@The_Darke_Lorde]

Also, the headcanon about Pokémon being picky and doing a test fight before being caught could explain why you can't catch Pokémon after they faint, despite the easier way out. They don't like that, explain it away as luck, and escape as soon as they can. This happened so much after PLA that it's now common sense to let a fainted Pokémon lie to be healed by other wild Pokémon and attempt to hurt a Pokémon enough to become low, but not faint.

[@LerryLaSimp]

My headcanon is that Professor Turo is afraid of spiders and small bugs. He won't scream, but he'll just uncomfortably stare at the bug. Silly I know.

[@BJGvideos]

Does this carry through to the AI?

[@themoagoddess1820]

three of my headcanons: 1. Ash is perpetually ten years old, because whenever his age is mentioned the timeline was shifted and compressed such that he's ten whenever him being ten years old gets mentioned. and Ash is retiring as the show's main character because Dialga is tired. 2. The time machine in Area Zero really works as a time machine, but the pokemon pulled through it evolve into paradox pokemon like a trade evolution depending on which direction the time machine was set to in that timeline. 3. Tandemaus and Maushold are actually the dust mites of Paldea, the two we see as Tandemaus are just the swarm pooling their strength into two battle ready individuals to get them to normal pokemon size (which is why Tandemaus must level up through battle to evolve, the swarm doesn't see the need to provide reinforcements without battle).

[@aceofaces0007]

My head canon is that Geeta knows she is a weak Champion, which is why she structured the Paldea League to make it so that no one can dethrone her as “Top Champion” and thus devaluing the accomplishment of becoming Champion. Most Champions are perfectly fine with stepping down when they lose, but not her. She spends all of her free time inspecting the gyms to constantly keep tabs on the gym leaders to ensure none of them are strong enough to challenge her so that she can cling to power, and she especially is hard on Larry (making the man work as an Elite 4 member and gym leader in addition to his office job) because Larry is on to her BS as a toxic boss. The gym leaders don’t like her because she treats the Pokémon league like a business, a business that doesn’t pay its employees very well when the Gym Leaders are more committed to their side gigs and hobbies than actually being gym leaders.

[@aceofaces0007]

Plus, who the hell makes a literal toddler an Elite 4 member? Poppy is a nepo baby for sure, with one of her parents having a connection to Geeta in some way

[@fnafbendyranger123x]

So she’s essentially Mr krabs as a human female Pokémon trainer

[@moonrose221]

My headcanon is Ash is hiding how smart he actually is and openly had terrible performance anxiety. His dad or his parents friends shared stories about their own journeys with Ash. So he feels like he has to compare to those people. In Alola and the WCS none of them were able to do either. So Ash finally didn't have that anxiety pressuring him and was finally able to put his skills to the test. Allowing him to become Alola's first Champion and World Champion since neither his parents or his parents friends ever had to do that. Goh is being watched by Mew. Mew finds Goh's declaration of being caught by Goh amusing. Suicune watched Goh as well and realized how lonely he was but also how kind. Which is why Suicune allowed itself to be captured. Ash and Goh after some time away return to the Cerise Laboratory and resume working as Research Fellows. Paradox Pokemon aren't actual Pokemon. They were what could have been if certain Evil Teams won. Thus the term Paradox. Professor Sada and Professor Turo are married. Both are alive just being kept in a sort of Stasis by an Evil Team who believe they are the source of the Paradox Pokemon when it's the result of the Machine. Legendaries can take on human disguises and walk around among humans. Mew and Celebi are the ones who do this more often. Arceus, is very rare as he does not enjoy leaving the Hall of Origins. Giratina is a fan of Piers' music and begs Arceus to revive him a Legendary after the end of his human lifespan. Ash's Lucario is the reincarnation of Sir Aaron's Lucario as some people speculate the 'Chosen One' is the reincarnation of Sir Aaron.

[@cristianosavi4024]

The giratina one 😂

[@gamegod6859]

[@megansheldon8196]

Alright, its comment time! I got a few headcanons of my own I'd love to share! 1.) Gladion is a HUGE fan of Piers. 2.) All the towns and cities are actually bigger than they appear to be in game like the anime all just for the game's sake of not being too large. 3.) The canon protagonist in Ruby, Saphire, and Emerald is Brendan while in Omega Ruby and Alpha Saphire, its May. This is all because of the mother's hair color. Its lighter in ORAS than RSE like May's hair.

[@XynthoanXV2]

This may be an odd headcanon, but I like to think Gloria has a twin sister. Gloria is the one we get with an English accent in the game, Masters EX, and possible anime appearance. The twin (middle name Gloria) is our lovable drunk we get in fan comics who has a Scottish accent and lives with their dad.

[@toriori553]

While not a headcanon, more like something that would be nice to see more often in the games is NPC trainer classes like Lass or Beauty having nicknames on their Pokémon. Even Johto’s gym leader Jasmine nicknamed her Steelix, but only in Performing Contests. Seeing more trainers nicknaming their Pokémon would make the player feel less alone or bizarre in nicknaming their own.

[@phoenixgames957]

i have a headcanon that the little purple bumps on master balls contain a tranquilizer that instantly puts any pokemon to sleep INSIDE the pokeball, immediately catching it.

[@theserpent8667]

Let's see: Leon is a hilariously bad dancer, but Raihan, Steven, Diantha and Lance are excellent. Lance eats red lobster and chips. Cynthia bakes good muffins. There are more Mega Stones out there that we've not found yet. In the anime, atk/sp atk and def/sp def are just attack and defence.

[@dannybrine8718]

I like how spot on the one about Kalos being part of a larger continent is, because I (and a looot of other people) are like 90% sure that big wall at the north east edge of Paldea *is* Kaloa itself. Kalos. Is just a much higher elevation.

[@sparkyentertainmentstudios2380]

I have 2 head cannons that I think work really well 1. Whenever the main protagonist story ends (aka when you stop playing the games and the story continues) you releases all your captured legendarys back to the wild to continue protecting the region or pokemon. This explains why red doesn't have the mewtwo you caught as he released it and how you can find mewtwo in different places. 2. All trainers in the pokemon anime as well as the games that use a legendary pokemon (not including legendarys that have multiples of each other such as the regi trio as regigigas most likely created multiple for different regions) are all dittos that have seen the legendarys roaming and have forgotten how to transform back explaining why legendarys used by trainers in the anime arnt as powerful as the real ones

[@bryanabreu]

Personal headcannons: 1. The Arceus you catch isn't *the* Arceus, but a copy with a fraction of it's power. 2. The creator of Ditto's threw them away because they transformed into trash and were unknowingly thrown out. That's why you can randomly find them in the wild. 3. Ingo and Emmet see pictures of Hisui Emmet, which causes the two to mimic/emulate how he looked and acted. 4. Ditto's derpy face is still present, just hidden. Like under Blaziken's hair or under Decidueyes cloak.

[@Casual-viewer55]

My headcanon is that you are reincarnated every game because in Pokemon Scarlet/Violet the lady who gives you a phone case if you bought the previous games says 'In your past lives you've lived' so even though you don't remember what you did you always have the skills that you had in your last life which means that each time you're reincarnated you get better and better. Also explains why you need to keep being taught how to catch a pokemon every game.

[@georges2842]

My favorite headcanon of mine is that Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy are characters played by women in the police departments and healthcare industries around the Pokémon world to give young children and new trainers a friendly face to talk to if they need help from an adult. Not an unrealistic theory, given how many regions just let ten-year-olds out into the world to fend for themselves.

[@Spookyperson02]

One head canon I have is that the protagonist of every game is stuck in a time loop that repeats every time they lose a battle. When losing and going to battle again the npc never remembers battling you in the first place. Another headcanon I have is that missing no was Arceus’ first attempt at creating a Pokémon and it failed. Mew, Dialga,Palkia,and Girratina were it’s first SUCCESSFUL attempts. Missingno still lurks in the world without anyone knowing about it.

[@InktheImpassive]

I like that according to Masters, the reason why Elio and Selene would tend to stare off into space and smile is because Elio overthinks so much and Selene is so laid back to the point that they both take time on what's in front of them to sink in to respond.

[@Flizz0]

I like to imagine Cyrus would probably let out his emotions once he’s home or something, so whether it be rage, or sadness he’d act out on it while alone and then his Rotom would help comfort him afterwards

[@lunar9342]

I have a headcanon that the reason we never find dropped money from lost wild encounters is that it's all digital, and it tries to automatically cash out to the winner, but no winner is found, so the signal bounces around until it scrambles, which is why trainers are incentivised to collect materials to sell. It helps them with saving up extra income in case of an emergency.

[@thelakeguardian8188]

8:34 This explains why Mesprit asks them to “share his emotions with her”. This is because Mesprit is incredibly sweet and empathetic, and can read the main character’s mind.

[@knowledgeabledude2971]

I have several head canons: -Mr Salvatore is somehow related to Rose and Peony -Arven has both professors as his parents -Cyrus and his golbat share similar goals and that’s why it evolved into crobat -cynthia has always had the different Pokémon but sometimes switches them out -celebi is like a child to dialga I know I have more but can’t think of them at the moment

[@SirPanikalot778]

I like the idea that everyone knows that dynamax pokemon are terriffyingly dangerous, and when one is sent out during a battle, both trainers have to quickly run off the field prior to its attack.

[@SoftwareLearningify]

Lol tru, I like that head cannon

[@lemondunce]

I'd like to think that Gloria and Leon are exceptions to this. They say it's because they trust their Pokémon; and while this is partially true, they also just have no regard for their own safety and get too absorbed in the battle. Many security guards have tried (and failed) to drag them off the field beforehand.

[@ammarannafi4144]

My headcanon is that the gen 9 protagonist likes to flex to nemona arven and penny about how they beat all of them despite being at least a year younger

[@destinywillowleaf219]

this started from art i saw a while ago and it's stuck with me ever since: Wes and Volkner are brothers (or are at the very least closely related). making weird mechanical projects runs in the family, whether it's rewiring an entire city or building a hover motorcycle. they would drive each other nuts if they tried to make something as a team at this point though. (also aaaa i didn't expect to be in the video!! i still love the racing idea. additional dumb masters HC, people have mixed up roark and silver before, usually if roark's not wearing his glasses in the mornings. the moment one of them talks it's clear who it really is.)

[@icecoldkremit]

I have 1 mainly: The reason all the legendaries are spread across multiple regions is because long ago the most ancient ones (those that can create stuff) got into a literal civil war. It stemmed between Groudon and Kyogre getting into a fight and Groudon just losing it. The battle decimated the whole world and the other legendaries began trying to defend their creations resulting in more conflict. In the aftermath, the world would be left in ruin with the legendaries still fighting. Arceus and the creation trio, who would've stayed far away from the war, decide that they need to just start over. In order to do this, Arceus created regigagas. Not one regigigas, but many. The regigigas would basically act as assassins, creating the other regis to aid the in hunting down the other legends. Groudon and kyogre were sealed away as a result of the chaos. Eventually, Giratina would decide to fight back against the regis and though it would succeed in destroying them, Arceus would send Giratina to distortion world as punishment. After all this, Mew would set on a mission to revive the world, resulting in the other legendaries. Mew made many attempts to keep them separated, and soon the legendaries Mew created as well as Mew themself would heal the world.

[@ItsCandyindefinitely]

My headcannon is the reason tobias never returned is becuz he used illegal ways to get the legendaries and eventually the pokemon league caught on to him resulting in him getting lifelong jail time due to pokemon cruelty

[@imjustnami]

This seems like a weird head cannon to me however, I've always believed that the reason legendary pokemon are considered legendary is bcs they're the last of their species and are unable to reproduce due to them being unable to breed with other pokemon or even dittos

[@ornitopesto7554]

Holy shit never think of that

I’m very late to the party but love hearing everyone’s creative ideas Anyways, my headcanon is that Dawn (at least in the anime) always has an item for every occasion, no matter how out of the blue it may be. She is prepared for every possible thing, and her bag is always stuffed full to the brim because of it.

[@thespacebat]

I have a head cannon that in Masters, Gloria either couldn't stop swearing, or she kept speaking in Scots so no one understood her so they had to dub over her voice.

[@cynicalfella]

My headcannon is that in most of the games, you record your first encounter with every new Pokemon, so when you go to the Pokedex and see the pokémon's sprite moving, that's not just an animation, that's the movement the Pokemon did when you discovered it.

[@lipflubmsm5238]

These two headcannons are based on relationships between pokemon species that are mentioned in dex entries - I like to imagine Hippowdons with Mulitple Dwebbles stop near berry trees and have a family meal (Hippowdon's Sw/Sh entry) - I imagine Snovers enjoy giving it's berries to Galarian Darumakas because it likes to make pokemon happy, and it feels bad for them once the Abomasnows scare them away (Not sure which entry this is but it's most likely Snover's/G. Darumaka's Sw/Sh entry)

[@wintersong2266]

My headcanon is that Pokémon in the mainline games could build their own civilisation if they wanted to. Just like they did in the Mystery Dungeon universe. But don't because it's just more convenient to become part of the civilisation humans arleady built

[@doccavs723]

In pokemon Gold/Silver/HG/SS, we get to see how Silver grow as a trainer and as a person even seeing own a Crobat at one point. In special event Celebi in that game, we get to see what Giovanni was doing during the time he was being contacted by Team Rocket to get him to join again. Even though we, the protagonist ultimately stopped Giovanni into reconsidering to join Team Rocket, I always feel that it was Silver who interacted with his father and finally stopped Giovanni into ever joining back to Team Rocket. So in a sense, Silver was also there when Celebi took the protagonist to the past.

[@raetreader]

My headcanon is one of the more popular headcanons shared among the fandom, but Ingo and Emmet both have autism >They both have a hyperfixation on trains and Pokémon battling, which is how the Battle Subway came into fruition >Ingo is very loud and has trouble controlling his voice when he’s excited. He also has vocal stimming in the form of sprinkling train terminology throughout his speech, something which is carried over into PLA even after he’s lost his memories >Emmet can be very blunt, sometimes coming off as rude without realizing it until Ingo steps in and informs him that what he said wasn’t very nice (which is shown in the manga) >Another little fun fact is that someone is more likely to have autism if their sibling has it, so it’s not that far of a reach for two twins to both be on the spectrum I don’t have autism myself but my brother and a lot of my friends do, so it’s always awesome seeing representation that isn’t “super genius” or god forbid Sheldon Cooper, even if it isn’t technically canon. I just really love these silly little train men and the community surrounding them :)

[@Jessica_Schweser]

As someone with autism I relate to the funny train men

[@ShinyRowletGuy]

As a person with autism I never see the funny train men as autistic, but I never actually played black and white 2 so that probably explains it. However to me when playing legends arceus Ingo came off as quitet and mellow, but perhaps it's just his situation Love the haedcannon though

[@michaelsmitha.k.a.mr.drago3656]

I like to think that since your bond is usually strengthened during mega evolution, that the Pokémon AND you shate the pain, making it more bearable and hence why people dont just use megas all the time BTW love the vids man!

[@cucumber-icepop]

[@Pastel_Diamond_Studios]

I think that was a thing in the manga, Mewtwo has some of Blain's DNA in it to complete it or something

[@ryuuronin9852]

My head canon is that Oak was the Champion before Blue, was on his way when he heard Blue beat the E4, but Red beat him first. We've obviously seen Champs and E4 leave the league, so what happens if they're not back yet: do the challengers go ahead and fight who is available, or do they just have to wait? What if Oak got the call and simply conceded the match over the phone, acknowledging he was out his prime to actually win. Oak vs Blue makes for a fun concept for a battle though. If not, it was probably just Lance, or they're a very weird league that never had a Champ before. As for Megas, my head canon is that their dex entries were written by a researcher that lost a fight to a Mega and was bitter. Evolution and Form Changes also extremely transform the pokemon and doesn't end in pain. Heck Dynamax/Gigantimax are far more extreme changes feuled by the power of an evil poison monster. You can't convince Mega is any worse for the pokemon. Edit: Additional new head canon, its never stated in game Lance got the Champion slot BECAUSE Red stepped away. All that's stated is that no one has talked to Red in a while, and Lance is now the acting Champion by the time of GSC. My head canon is that Lance actually doubled down on his training and pulled out an actual win on Red: giving Red some actual motivation to head to Mt Silver and start training to get as strong as we see him in Gold/Silver. The reason I think this is because not only did Blue not reclaim the title once Red was gone, but his levels actually cap out lower than Lance's in the rematches; implying that Lance become the stronger trainer of the two at least by that point. That paired with him being a rather humble character that calls himself "the most powerful trainer" would be pretty strange if he knew someone was out there stronger than him, so he probably actually thought he was stronger after defeating Red for the title. Then when you step into the Hall of Fame, he reminisces about it proudly, like he had earned his own entry into it instead of being handed it. I think it makes a nice little thematic arc: Red is obviously stronger after his training, but he meets the player before he heads back and learns there will always be greater heights to reach. I also like to think something similar happened with Iris and the BW Protagonist. I just prefer if the Champions earned their role, even if it means the previous protag needs to take an L.

[@MysticRyokan]

I have a headcannon where ironically even tho Kalos was the region that introduced Mega-Evolution none of their regional pokemon are able to mega evolve themselves (not even their legendries that produce the phenomenon) the reason for this was because the ultimate weapon was used on foreign enemies and their pokemon that Kalos was at war with so it makes sense that their native pokemon weren't exposed and effected by the radiation.

[@flipdragon9218]

My head cannon is that Pokémon cards are like the baseball cards of the Pokémon universe.

[@aurorawizard7045]

My headcanon is that back when Mustard was a Gym Leader, he was the leader of Stow-On-Side, and not far from retirement, he took Bea/Allister under his wing and helped them become strong, capable trainers. Even if this doesn't work for Al, it's definitely possible for Bea. Now of course Bea doesn't directly mention Mustard in the Isle of Armour, but she could just not know he's the dojo master himself. Or SwSh creators didn't want to make Bea stand out as a character for some stupid reason. I even made a fanfic relating to this headcanon of Bea and Mustard having some sort of relationship, buuut that's not important.

[@WitchHatCafe]

I got a headcannon that pokemon get sleepy as their PP runs out

[@TheRogueRenegade]

They just wanna snooze

[@dethiamthelaw1353]

Since I’ve begun running back the older titles with more challenging rulesets, I’ve come up with a theory, those who play with Nuzlocke rules are using their Pokémon as a means to an end, like chess pieces in a game. They’re not concerned with completing the dex, they’re not concerned with the side characters, or even their bonds with other Pokémon unless there’s a benefit to increasing friendship. Pokémon that faint in battle get cast aside for failing their trainer. Everyone sees these protagonists as heroes, but in reality, nuzlocke protags are absolute sociopaths who will do anything for the sake of a challenge/thrill, anything for a high stakes game.

[@panrecienhorneado4966]

I like to think about Gen 4 as a Trilogy, going like this: BDSP ---> Legends Arceus ----> Platinum. BDSP: The protagonist goes on his adventure and stops Team Galactic to summon Palkia/Dialga. The reason that only one legendary appears here is that there's no much information about the creation trio. Legends: Arceus sends the main character to the past to stop Volo, that now has Giratina by his side. Here, the main character catches and register all legendary Pokémon. Also, somehow after his defeat Giratina realizes he was wrong. Platinum: Due to Legends arceus events, Cyrus gets full information of Palkia and Dialga, making him able to summon both of them. Here, Giratina redeems himself and stops Cyrus to make the same thing he and Volo were trying to do.

Some head cannons I believe in: - Cyrus found peace in the Distortion World and (IF) there's ever a proper continuation of the Galactic story Galactic base will reside there (also some tie to Ultra Space). - Elesa and Iona have appeared on stream together and have a working brand relationship. - Eugene from Gold, Silver and Crystal has the mannerisms of Patrick Jane from The Mentalist - Classic headcannon (hehe pun) is that Genesect is a modern version of Kabutops and possible first Paradox Pokemon if before/after Type Null. - The Ghost story guy in X and Y is actually just a con man with the ghost girl mystery in that game being a complete coincidence.

I have a headcanon that Hisuian Zoroarks are much sweeter around those they trust. They definitely have an unhinged and malicious side, but that's just one side of the coin. The other side only comes out around those that they trust, and only around them.

my head canon is that N is actually a sandslash cuz sandhslah is cool as FUCKKKK
