Hey gang! I started a patreon to help me create these videos. Consider supporting and thanks for watching! www.patreon.com/adefgames Both available tiers give access to bonus/cut content from my videos, and there's already a 4 minute video up of a huge cut-out section from the Fly video. Enjoy!
Fun fact, one of lanturns pokedex entries lists it as being able to produce light visible from the surface of the ocean at some absurd depth like a 3 miles or something. The amount of energy this requires is 10^35 times that available in the observable universe and would possibly result in a black hole many times the size of the current universe the instant it began to emit light. This is definitive proof that lanturn is the strongest Pokémon in existence and multiversal in power. Or maybe that the pokedex is written by a delusional 10 year old with no grasp of science or quantifiable phenomena. Could go either way, really
I really hate the "Pokedex was written by 10 year olds" thing because that hasn't been true in SO many generations and has absolutely been retconned. The modern pokedex simply gives you the information on pokemon you scan, and doesn't tell you about those you haven't scanned (other than their locations) for gameplay reasons. Even in PLA it was the professor writing them, not the protag.
@@ArticfoxgamezMe too, just feels like a cop-out people say when they don't wanna think or suspend their disbelief of a fantasy world. (and also don't know that no main series protag is 10)
this is the most fascinating comment ever. so much passion, so much fervor...! and the wording, it just sounds so.... _intimate._ forget marriage, one day ill find someone that i will want to "do obscure math" with.
You forgot to mention the luminosity of Lanturn where if it is actually visible from 3mi underwater like its Gold dex entry says it would have to be putting out more energy than the visible universe
Those chemicals would affect more than just the colour of the fire though they would also affect the temperature of the fire among other things, so I can understand why he wouldn't include that.
@@oMuStiiAnot by anywhere near enough to be an issue in most cases. Like, copper salts aren't going to be burning that much hotter than NaCL for example.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 I'm not saying it would be an issue for the pokemon it would just complicate things for an already complicated video. Why would shines produce these chemicals when non shines don't, for example? How/for what purpose would they produce the chemical in the first place? And so on and so forth.
@@oMuStiiA Presumably they'd be producing them for the same reasons they produce different pigments. And I was just pointing out that they're probably not (significantly) different temperatures, so probably don't need to be accounted for or treated as a massive headache.
i literally completely forgot about the move for a few seconds so when i saw the thumbnail i thought this was going to be a video on which pokemon can learn to use Adobe Flash .
Also, the illuminate ability exists - so Staryu, Starmie, Chinchou, Lanturn, Volbeat, Watchog, Morelull and Shiinotic should be able to act as a torch But not Illumise, for some reason, despite being based on a firefly. Apparently, they attract Volbeat using sent rather than light
it's not "despite being based on a firefly," it's _because_ it's based on a firefly. while most species are bioluminescent, there are some that aren't and rely on pheromones for the same purposes ala illumise. as far as i'm aware, there isn't a species that specifically has bioluminescent males and non-bioluminescent females, but it's also not an unbelievable setup and lets pokemon represent both strategies of a family that's more diverse than i imagine most people realize
Meanwhile, over in mathematics, I have to reckon with the fact that one of the most important figures between it and the concept of cybernetics is named Norbert Weiner. Wiener chaos explosion is a real Wikipedia article.
@@katzlover321 because he left out dozens of others that very obviously produce enough light to help in a cave as well. Not sure why heat was the only thing he considered anyway for his definitive list at the end when theres so many pokemon that have non-fire ways of being bright, but since he only cared about the fire types regardless its fair to also ignore illumise/volbeat since he's ignoring other very obvious ones like Xerneas and regieleki as well. Tbh the video shouldve been called something like "what pokemon are constantly using flash" anyways rather than just what pokemon have the ability to use it
Another contender for learning Flash are Psychic types. Common moves like Reflect and Light Screen explicitly mention using light (and some moves like Photon Geyser but those are more niche), and the type in general has a very heavy "magic" theme. It's up for interpretation but it seems like lighting up a space would be easy for them. As far as the actual learnsets go, quite a lot actually are on there. Alakazam line, Hypno, Mewtwo, Espeon, etc
Environmental science major here! I got super excited when you brought in Wien's Law and blackbody radiation, but I feel like you may have gotten ahead of yourself in conflating radiation peaks with luminosity. A tiny flame may emit light in the blue through infrared part of the EM spectrum, but that doesn't necessarily mean it casts off enough light to be useful in navigation, for example. You may have considered touching on the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which ties radiant emittance (if in the visible spectrum per Wien's Law, this radiated energy would be visible light) to temperature - once you've checked whether the light output would be visible, then you gotta also check whether it would be a useful amount of light. A super cool video nonetheless :)
7:22 - small correction: there is one type of object in the universe that does not reflect any radiation at all - these are black holes. Theoretically, they even emit Hawking radiation, so we can even talk about their temperature.
13:55 - Wouldn't the state of said magma be dependent on the pressure within Camerupt's vasculature? It could very well still be in a liquid state at high enough pressures.
Fascinated by the implication that all of Camerupt's cells would be extremophiles... and that said cells could form functioning tissues, organs, organ systems, etc. under these conditions. (I'm not being sarcastic, I'd genuinely like someone to explore this in greater depth and also think it's hilarious.)
@@cookiesversuscream If this were the case, Camerupt's body would need to be made out of entirely different materials than our own bodies. Their proteins would long denature, probably even evaporate or carbonize in proximity to that kind of heat. Thus far, the substance with the highest melting point is halfnium carbonitride with a melting point of 4,400 C, not even half the temperature of the 9,982 C magma in Camerupt's body. One can only imagine that Pokemon has some insane materials science going on.
Honestly, the random walking in emerald and the static image of the OG Pokemon Snap made this video. Your math and explanation were flawless as always, but the background details are chefs kiss

Profit. Feb 29: silly extra day (???) Feb only has 28 days (????) These calendar makers are losers, like Todd
No joke, despite being a former biochemistry major, this video's explanation of a blackbody is hands down the best one I've ever heard and what made it actually click for me. EDIT: And the quantum mechanics comment did convince me to subscribe, so I guess that worked on at least one person lol
Adef, it is genuinely so amusing how relevant this is to a class I'm taking right now. I am in an astronomy class, and I knew you were gonna talk about Wien's law before the words left your mouth. I do love your explanation of photon emission by the way.
I love the amount of work you put into these videos, as well as how characmatic you are, youre quirky perosnality is so fun and wntertaining, keep up the great work!
Wait, does that mean some tycoon can capture a bunch of Magcargo to power power plant steam? Would like to know which pokemon violate conservation of energy.
Of all this video I've watched, I gotta say .. I love how I've unironically played Emerald and realized you couldn't teach Flash to, oddly of all my pokemon in my party, one of them being magcargo.. and then in the same day get this video recommended to me. How does RUclips read my mind like that..
Most fire is based on the burning of hydrogen, I'm not sure how it interacts with black-body radiation. However, in short, you can have blue-colored fire or fire emitting light-colored blue that is only as hot as around 2000 K. You don't need ridiculously high temperatures to generate light. Causing a chemical reaction (burning something) also generates light.
I think Clawlitzer can also produce sonoluminescence as using compressed water it can "punch a hole right through a thick sheet of iron" so it's fair to assume that it works kinda like a snapping shrimp, hence it could use flash as long as it's underwater
Me watching the silly Pokémon meme video to actually get educated on science and learning a whole bunch of things. Thanks for the hard work, I love these
theres an episode in xy where pikachu, luxray, and dedenne sustain electric charge for a very long time in order to power the pokecenter when the fuse blew. They have the power to do so but it does take a toll on their bodies.
4:58 I've heard that the reason we can see the light that we can see, is because that's the part of the spectrum that the sun emits the most of. So our eyes evolved to be able to see the light that is the most abundant.
This is very likely correct! My understanding is that it’s a combination of the sun + our atmosphere and how the two interact. Our distance to the sun + the sun’s natural emission causes a peak in the green part of the visible spectrum, which causes us to have the most sensitivity for green. There’s a great Captain Disillusion video on color that is worth watching, which mentions this topic.
I'm glad generation 8 gave us more context on how horribly wrong the Pokédex is. It truly is just a 10 year old sending observations to a local professor for them to write about.
10:35 A lit match is about 2000 F and you are telling me that Panzer produces a flame that is 4 times colder than a freaking match! I guess it's possible but you have to be burning some weird ass fuel to make a flame that cold
Electric types that can make 480W of sustained power could literally just hold 2 pieces of carbon and make a Carbon arc lamp. I imagine that that might account for some small amount more pokemon than already calculated.
480W is kind of a lot. A constant power output of that much would mean almost 10,000kcal per day, meaning that's how much the creature would need to eat to sustain its electricity production, not counting its other life functions. Not impossible but it would be an expensive pet to maintain!
forget seeing light in a cave with a marcargo, the cave itself would be radiating light with that thing nearby, and like maybe not even exsist as it reaches temperatures of the sun
At about 14:30 you mention you can just use Wien's law to tell the temperature of fire but that's usually not true as there are plenty of examples where a chemical burns a strong color due to its oxidation states. Like burning Borax to get green fire. Fire is about as far away from a blackbody as possible since the light itself is produced in a chemical reaction. (Fire becomes more like a black body when there are a lot of impurities such as soot that glow red hot)
I noticed this as well. There are several glaring errors in the video besides that one (e.g. implying that a creature with body temperature of 5000C would be as bright as the sun which is nonsense like anyone that has seen a lighting bolt (30,000C temperature) knows). The conclusion is very strange as well - why do only the pokemons with extreme body temperature count but not the ones producing light through fire, electricity or bioluminence? I did not like it
I was laughing so much watching this video! Incredible video! Not going to lie, you got me to click instantly implying my fav pokemon, which is a literal light for a lighthouse in Johto, could not learn flash with the thumbnail
great work again adef! rewound at least 5 different jokes just to take them in again. humor is on point alongside the ever-present knowledge. the work is appreciated!
Now do one on which pokémon should be able to use Cut. I'll wait (yeah I can't get over the fact that farfetch'd learns to cut with a fckn celery for cutlass)
?? We're just trying to light a cave not level a city So, probably lean more towards that 100 or more answer, not the 5 who happen to literally be walking nukes.
wild to see that fireflies were brought up to talk about bioluminescence in reference to lanturn and ampharos, but then volbeat and illumise went completely undiscussed
its actually crazy that I watched this video last night and then this morning in class we start a new subject and we're learning about black body radiation and im just sitting here like wow, pokemon taught me this before my modern physics class
11:35 Perhaps the fireballs launched by Magmortar have cooled significantly to only 3,600°F after coming in contact with the surrounding air, and thus, the actual internal temperature of the Magmortar _is_ hot enough to glow a proper white.
I would argue that any pokemon that can learn flamethrower should be able to learn flash. reasons being: instead of them throwing the flames, they could just flare up their mouths, like the dragons do when hiccup meets his mother in how to train your dragon 2, and become a living torch. I think it makes sense.
I remember in Pokemon episode 12, Ash is in a dark cave and summons Charmander for the explicit purpose of having its tail flame generate light to see.

"That one is a crime" guy is illustrating Wien's Law :).
can't wait for the just as scientifically intense follow-up: What Pokémon can snap a twig?
wild to see that fireflies were brought up to talk about bioluminescence in reference to lanturn and ampharos, but then volbeat and illumise went completely undiscussed
Come for the weird pokemon facts, stay for the physics lessons. I love this weird-ass video so much. Was not expecting this, and it's great.
Ultra Necroza: guess my light *doesn't* burn the sky
Lantern and Chinchou literally have light on their heads. Checkmate.
Can’t wait for the video “Calculating Spinda variations and how long to catch them”
i just want to mention that the visuals on this video go absolutely crazy (positive)
The team who writes the Pokédex entries every gen must have had some wild dreams while they were in physics class.
Your jokes are so well-delivered, immediate sub
Amazing vids keep up the great work, although i am a little upset you didnt mention my boy Umbreon
When you realize a 10 year old is writing the Pokédex, it makes a lot more sense
Enjoying this series. Keep it up!
These videos only fuel my urge to buy a comically large dry erase board or chalk board
i love these videos so much! super fascinating stuff, also your jokes are great
its actually crazy that I watched this video last night and then this morning in class we start a new subject and we're learning about black body radiation and im just sitting here like
wow, pokemon taught me this before my modern physics class
- Part 3: Luigi - certainly read that pretty wrong the first time
6:39 HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS WEARING BLUE
Pyroar prefers raw meat, but can eat cooked meat. Maybe lilleo ate raw meat and enjoyed it so much that it prefers it.
You're telling me the guy whose law dictates Flash is named Willy Wiener?
Willy Wiener of Wien?
this man is doing gods work
11:35 Perhaps the fireballs launched by Magmortar have cooled significantly to only 3,600°F after coming in contact with the surrounding air, and thus, the actual internal temperature of the Magmortar _is_ hot enough to glow a proper white.
so.... which shiny pokemon should learn flash?
Fantastic work yet again, adef. These are great
Really enjoying this type of nerdy content ^^
Lopunny learns flash if you beg it hard enough
“I caught a Pokemon, Batman.”
I would argue that any pokemon that can learn flamethrower should be able to learn flash. reasons being: instead of them throwing the flames, they could just flare up their mouths, like the dragons do when hiccup meets his mother in how to train your dragon 2, and become a living torch. I think it makes sense.
Light spectrum isn't the only one I see you on buddy ! Great work
Speedrun meta is to use cindaquill on Whitney
I remember in Pokemon episode 12, Ash is in a dark cave and summons Charmander for the explicit purpose of having its tail flame generate light to see.
Great video man!!! What’s next, Cut???
