You Cannot Justify Jolteon! ⚡ Gnoggin

[@austinroy5146]

I actually think once u get used to it, sleeping with jolteon's electric exhale in the room would actually become soothing, kind of like rain sounds

[@QuantumWaltz]

He's just a white noise machine, if it weren't for the quills he sounds perfect to snuggle with if you struggle to sleep in a silent room.

[@velvetbutterfly]

@@QuantumWaltz if it sleeps with you it probably wouldn't be scared or angry so it'd be soft

[@Project_TTG]

@@QuantumWaltz my dog is pretty stiff spikey hair and I sleep with him every night

[@myrjavi]

@@QuantumWaltz i think jolteon's "quills" are just fur shaped as spikes, and their fur can be relaxed so that it wouldn't be spiky

[@lynternet]

i was thinking the same thing. it’s kinda like a crunchy purr

[@MrSkysenGames]

Time to use softening conditioner on a Jolteon so it has flowing hair instead of spikes!

[@VeraExora]

Only for it to Static Elec itself to Spikes again

Being a science nerd and Jolteon being my favorite Eeveelution this was such a fun watch!! Love the way everything is presented in an informative and entertaining way. Definitely subscribing and looking forward to future videos!

[@mattwo7]

Same but Jolteon and Flareon are tied for my least favorite. My favorite is a tie between Vaporeon and Glacieon with Leafeon being a close second (being a grass type fan while hating the color green is suffering, my favorite color is blue in case it wasn't obvious. In pure spite of color preference though, my favorite pokemon in general is torterra, (the sole "earth type" Pokemon) which I wish had a blue shiny instead)

Jolteon's also my favorite, he hasn't changed on my list since I really started playing pokemon

[@NyoomMonster]

Jolteon is in my top 5 favorite Pokemon and now he's a contender for most favorite of all time, thanks to this speculative breakdown. Please do more Eeveelution videos and speculative biology videos on Pokemon, including your Fakemon. This brings me so much joy to watch.

[@thelastelite1017]

I believe the bacteria thing is probably accurate because it explains how non electric pokemon use electric moves

As a Chihuahua owner, they shake because they are always summoning Satan or they are stealing your soul.

Plot Twist: There's actually always a balloon above his head just out of sight of the camera, which keeps his hair up like that via static electricity

[@zacharymaher2855]

As soon as you explained electric potential with the bowling ball, I thought you were gonna crush the poor Pikachu, what a relief. Awesome video as always Lockstin. Great stuff, learned a lot 😄👍

[@fishpop]

1:36 Those front-facing sprites look like they have lashes on the outermost corners of their eyes. It makes them look rather cute. ^_^

[@namorde]

THIS is why I love Locksten & Gnoggin. They blend together some of my favorite things and turn it into an absolute fascinating video, Pokémon, Science, and cool music. Thank you for being so Awesome! Have an absolute wonderful week. 💜

[@J3rr3LL]

Pokemon loves science, Hence 'The Power of Science is Amazing!'.

[@mattwo7]

12:28 Technically it's a microbinome of both good _and_ bad bacteria and the bad ones have to be kept in check because they can overpower the good bacteria and if the scales get tipped, it leads to severe digestive problems. Actually learned that from both Cells at Work and Cells at Work Black and not Magic School Bus because Magic School Bus didn't mention that in the digestive system book or episode of the cartoon adaptation of the books for some reason...

[@andrewschaosson]

Okay, Jolteon is my favorite Pokémon, let's see what Gnoggin have stored for 'em. Post-video: I want to be a voice actor, so learning that Jolteon's electricity actually comes from it's lungs just made me be in more love with this little fox-bunny fella.

[@Brittany_1992]

Same! I love Jolteon

[@shelbybayer200]

Same here, Jolteon is one my favorite Pokemon Everytime I get the opportunity to have a Jolteon I do so.

Jolteon is adorable and I glad this series is back,and that's nice Also I wish yall a great day

[@disquiet-mind]

Lockstin if scientific journals are too expensive, I believe you can contact the author because a lot of them would rather their knowledge be available than have you be locked behind a paywall. As far as I've heard, a lot of authors kinda hate their publishers and will send you a PDF of it for free

[@andrewjoseph2749]

If Jolteon was a monster in Monster Hunter, it would have what is called an Electro Sac (low rank), Thunder Sac (high rank), or Lightning Sac (G/Master rank).

[@sebastianesquivel5011]

4:41 Lockstin my man, if you ever feel like Pokemon/video game stuff start to feel boring, and you like science enough, you totally have the personality and charisma to be a modern Bill Nye the Science Guy. This little rave scene felt like something a modern version of that show would absolutely have, along with things like the Ed Edd n Eddy cow sound effect you used at the beginning, great work.

[@wesleynichols1873]

I always thought Jolteon looked like a bunch of sparks, crazy, erratic. That's why I like it!

[@trumpeterjen]

Arceus: "With the electricity in this Thunderstone, I've created a new Pokemon: Jolteon!" Professor Oak: "You ruined a perfectly good Eevee is what you did. Look at its spines, it's got anxiety"

[@mattwo7]

Meanwhile, Jolteon's Monster Hunter counterpart, Zingore generates electricity through a symbiotic relationship with thunderbugs and doesn't generate its own.

none of the eevee family need justification. they're perfect uwu. also when you showed the side view that showed the organs and such. that anatomy was missing one key detail. a void portal. should be located just before the rib cage at the top of the large intestine.

The fact that everything in nature is just part of a chain that breaks down energy into lower states is the basis of my meaning when I say that the meaning of life is to facilitate entropy. Our universe is a cooling explosion and we exist to help that process. We exist to use energy.

[@r_i_e_n_a1471]

Physics and chemics are subjects which are the most difficult for me to grasp but this channel makes them super intriguing and fun!! AND SOMEHOW EASY TO UNDERSTAND?! I quickly forget what the video was in the beginning, I get so into the subject at hand😹 I love this! And also the editing is just a joy to watch! Currently I'm going thru the huge yearly compilation videos and I love them. Just so much amazing info on all kinds of subjects! 🤩🤯

[@Tangarisu]

Here's a quick cheat sheet idea. All chemical and physical forces of atoms are entirely electron based. When you clap you are exerting physical force on to electrons who then repel or jump atoms and transfer heat and kinetic energy. When you burn something you are exciting the electrons into higher energy states pulling the bonded atoms apart creating a release of heat.

[@AZ-697]

Glaceon also has needles. It just doesn’t have an actual move to perform this in battle. DP: As a protective technique, it can completely freeze its fur to make its hairs stand like needles. B2W2: It lowers its body heat to freeze its fur. The hairs then become like needles it can fire. Moon: It freezes its fur into icicles, spiky and sharp, and tackles its prey. Ultra Sun: It protects itself by freezing its fur into sharp needles. It can drop its body temperature below -75 degrees Fahrenheit. BDSP: As a defense mechanism, it can completely freeze its fur to make its hairs stand out like needles.

[@awesomeperson5150]

I suppose Icicle Spear is kind of Icy needles

Jolteon is my favorite eeveelution. Ever since watching the episode "get along little pokemon" (which is featured on this video), I have always seen it more canid than felid based on its anatomy and face structure compared to the other eeveelutions. Good stuff

Are the Eeveelutions not based on foxes (which are part of the dog family) anyway?

[@magickahat]

@ Depends on the eeveelution, their inspirations in mammals lies everywhere

@@magickahat Are you sure? I consistently see foxes.

[@Cowboy-ms4hx]

Definitely more canid. Iv always seen jolteon as something of an Australian shepard/border collie, or fox like even

@ Eevee itself is an amalgamation of foxes canines cats and even a rabbit. Not saying Jolteon itself isnt canid but its moreso an interpreation of mine
