If I may submit a fact of my own: The move “Splash” is a mistranslation. The original Japanese name actually means “Hop”. This is why Hoppip is able to learn it as well as Magikarp. It’s also why, in the earlier games, Splash is a Normal-type move instead of a Water-type move.
Another useless fact: In Finnish the word "johto" means two things. The first one is cord, but the second meaning for johto in Finnish is "continuation". Since johto is a continuation of kanto, i think it is kinda cool that this hidden easter egg exists. (Even though game freak probably didn't intend that.)
I love Rowan. He's my favourite professor. He has a vibe that as a kid despite his grumpy side, he's a gentle grump that one can feel at ease with. I love those types of characters
There *IS* one instance of an actual devolution in the anime: Gladion's Silvally being "devolved" into a Type: Null. Of course, it's really just Silvally getting the helmet slapped on to it, and it later "evolves" by breaking off the helmet, but as Type: Null is treated in-game as a separate "pre-evolution" that can actually use Eviolite, it probably counts as a "devolution".
In pokemon journeys in particular the dialga & Palkia arc pokemon actually did devolve because of dialga & palkia were fighting causing issues in the spacetime continuum
For the final one, when he showed a "Pokémon: The First Movie" poster, I seriously thought he was going to say "The first ever Pokémon movie was called "Pokémon: The First Movie"."
The reason Mew is listed after Mewtwo in the Pokédex is because Mew was never planned to be in the original games (Red and Green). Shigeki Morimoto programmed it into the games two weeks before game development was finished. Even Nintendo was initially unaware of Mew's existence in the games.
Not to mention in universe the pokedex is a catalog of pokemon created by people, the people who created Mewtwo may not necessarily have cataloged it, given genetic modification isn't the most accepted branch of science.

9:30 so I was playing gen 3 on my phone a few days ago and I was in tall grass and accidentally pushed cut and it blew my mind. I showed my friend we were both like "it's so obvious yet I had no clue"
Smeargle can't learn Chatter because until Gen 6, Chatter had some insanely complicated formulas for base power and confusion chance based on DS mic inputs.
Waddle Derp yeah but that could have easily been changed after they removed that feature, I believe the reason they kept it like that was because chatter now has a 100% chance to confuse which is more op then any signature move.
1. Mew, Cryogonal, Minior, and Dhelmise (Plus Staryu and Starmie in Gen 2 ) can all learn Attract despite being genderless. The move is completely useless, as it always fails even when used on other genderless Pokemon. 2. In Gen 2, the only forms of Unown that can be shiny are I and V. For those who don't get it, the stats that determined if a Pokemon was shiny in Gen 2 are called Individual Values, or IV's. This is a coincidence though, as these values were called Determinate Values in Gen 2.
Deku Kitty Did the DV influence what kind of Unown it would be...? I mean, were the other forms than I and V purely shiny locked or does it have to do with DVs and game code after all ?
Or the spike character from generation 1 of my little pony with the exception/addition of the firery tail and wings. But yeah i see barney as a close second choice the colors off but close enough.
Maybe with the mewtwo number thing, Mewtwo was kept a secret and Mew wasn't discovered yet. So Mewtwo would be catalogued first what his whole "Imma get revenge on humanity" thing. And because Mewtwo says he's a clone it implies Mew exists, but is yet undiscovered. So Mew gets spot 151 as a hypothetical.
Here are some more (mostly) useless Pokémon facts: 1. Despite being a genderless Pokémon, Cryogonal can learn attract. It always fails if used. 2. With only a whopping 1HP, Shedinja can learn Substitute. 3. Ekans and Arbok are Snake and Kobra spelled backwards. 4. Magmar's Japanese name is Boober. No joke. 5. Delibird's two abilities are Insomnia and Vital Spirit. Who needs sleep, amirite? 6. Lunala and Solgaleo's signature moves, Moongeist Beam and Sunsteel Strike, have a secondary effect that ignores abilities from preventing their moves from hitting. This is only applicable to Mimikyu's Disguise and both moves hit it Super Effective. Coincidence?
Minior can also learn Attract, but I don't mind because it's super cute and if contests still existed I would use it in every one. Also nah, attract *always* fails when used by a genderless pokémon, regardless of the opponent's gender, @pixeon pkm.
I'm pretty sure Sunsteel strike and Moongeist beam (Who thought these are good names) penetrate all abilities. For example, if you use Sunsteel strike on someone with fur coat, it will do normal damage.
The Brock = Kaiba one was a huge shock. I also found the protein name one cool. As for the movie fact at the end I am not surprised at all. I remember being a kid and going to see the movie.

That could be the reason smeargle can't learn it, but it shouldn't really matter because all they'd need to change is smeargles cry, which they'd have had to do for chatot anyway so it must be possible
I think I know why professor Rowan wears black instead of white, in Sinnoh it is colder, for example In pokemon platinum you are wearing warmer clothing, so to wear black is making you warmer.
3:02 I think it's because Mew was snuck in a shortly before Red and Green launched in Japan. And with the fuss that came about with it, it resulted in some events being held where players can have a chance to have a Mew added to their copies of the games.
Adam Richardson yes but the time it takes to slowly cut away the grass just isn't worth it, on average it takes more time to do that then you'd spend in battles with wild Pokémon (assuming you're not under leveled).
Do Surprising Pokemon Weights! Fun Fact: Cosmog is the lightest Pokemon but when it evolves into Cosmeom it's the heaviest Pokemon making it surprising how Lillie carried Nebby(as a Cosmeom) in her bag easily.
what makes pikachu and meowth even more similar to tom and jerry is that 90% of the time the mouse wins the fight, but sometimes the cat will win, which is seen in both tom and jerry and in a few episodes of the anime.
For that Mew Vs. Mewtwo fact, it’s actually because (according to the manga for sure) that mew was undiscovered before mewtwo was created, and mewtwo was interacted with before mew got fully registered
Professor Rowan probably didn't wear a lab coat because of his line of research. He studied myths and legends. It wouldn't make sense for a guy studying history to wear a lab coat. So he opts for a nicer looking coat instead.
Late to this discussion but I believe Mew coming after Mewtwo is because although Mew was known to exist hence the DNA sample being used to create Mewtwo, the Pokemon simply wasn't actually discovered and seen (plus the whole memory wiping) until after Mewtwo was created and thereby being after in dex entry
I bet this has already been said but the lake trio actually haso sets of words to connect them Like you said there is U, Me, and Az, but also they contain Pixie, Sprite, and Elf

Despite its frequent Pokedex description, Arcanine is in fact not a legendary Pokemon. 4. Mew is basically a cat fetus 5. The last time Butch and Cassidy appeared in the anime was Diamond and Pearl. :( 6. Lucario has a 90% chance of turning you into a gay furry.
RIP Biff and Cassidy. I mean they were great counterparts to Jessie and James, and I just loved Bill as a character. Cassidy was a bit of an asshole though, I remember hating her at the time. I always loved bin though
According to wikipedia "Zbtb7, originally named Pokemon, is a gene that may act as a master switch for cancer", wow, and also this "The original name, Pokemon, stands for "POK erythroid myeloid ontogenic factor" and is most likely a backronym of the Pokémon media franchise. The Pokémon Company, not wanting the bad press inherent with its trademark sharing a name with a cancer-causing gene, threatened the center with legal action in December 2005, at which point MSKCC decided to rename it as Zbtb7."

6. Lunala and Solgaleo's signature moves, Moongeist Beam and Sunsteel Strike, have a secondary effect that ignores abilities from preventing their moves from hitting. This is only applicable to Mimikyu's Disguise and both moves hit it Super Effective. Coincidence?
Actually, if a genderless pokemon learn attract, it can use it on other genderless pokemons it i'm not wrong. I tried with my mew
Shedinja can also learn Final Gambit, which is it's weakest move at a whopping 1 base damage.
Minior can also learn Attract, but I don't mind because it's super cute and if contests still existed I would use it in every one. Also nah, attract *always* fails when used by a genderless pokémon, regardless of the opponent's gender, @pixeon pkm.
I'm pretty sure Sunsteel strike and Moongeist beam (Who thought these are good names) penetrate all abilities. For example, if you use Sunsteel strike on someone with fur coat, it will do normal damage.
pixeon pkm You must be remembering wrong, attract /always/ fails when used on or by a genderless Pokemon.
Fun fact: Mewtwo is before Mew in the dex because they drew Mewtwo first. That's the only reason XD
Diana Arin it wasnt supposed to be in the game, it was programmrd under the noses of the game devs, thats why it was after mewtwo
also because red captured mewtwo before mew i think. dont quote me on it
By that logic, Rhydon should be before Bulbasaur
Well the dex isn’t in order of which pokemon came first or Arceus would be number 1
Also in the canon origins anime mewtwo was reported as unknown and when found out to be the second red realised mew existed

I think they stopped that cuz obviously someone taught their Chatot how to scream swear words.
@@r.j.penfold that is likely the case, but does it really matter if it's just the normal cry for online? Who cares if friends swear at other friends?
@@jblen apparently Nintendo and/or GameFreak
@@jblen well chatot is banned from most online because of chatter

7:28 YOUR BARNEY IS EVOLVING
Congratulations your Barney has evolved into shiny charizard!
I think I know why professor Rowan wears black instead of white, in Sinnoh it is colder, for example In pokemon platinum you are wearing warmer clothing, so to wear black is making you warmer.
Dude you missed alomomola, it is also a palindrome!
@Gacha-chan but there was a section where he mentioned other palindrome Pokemon in which he missed Alomomola
Alomomola keeping it real since 1961

3:02 I think it's because Mew was snuck in a shortly before Red and Green launched in Japan. And with the fuss that came about with it, it resulted in some events being held where players can have a chance to have a Mew added to their copies of the games.
I didn't know that about the Lake Trio either... Maybe I am not a true genfourer.

THAT CUT THING IN GEN ONE AND TWO ISN'T USELESS! YOU CAN AVOID USING REPELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HALLELUJAH!
Adam Richardson yes but the time it takes to slowly cut away the grass just isn't worth it, on average it takes more time to do that then you'd spend in battles with wild Pokémon (assuming you're not under leveled).
oh thx
Adam Richardson also works in gen3 (but its all the adjacent fields instead of a 2x2 patch ahead of you, so its even slower)
It does a 3x3 around the player in Gen 3
Also, it's in Gen 3 aswell. It was removed in 4
I thought the same thing lol
Do Surprising Pokemon Weights!
Fun Fact: Cosmog is the lightest Pokemon but when it evolves into Cosmeom it's the heaviest Pokemon making it surprising how Lillie carried Nebby(as a Cosmeom) in her bag easily.
Get in the bag Nebby
slysonic026 Celesteela is the heaviest Pokemon
Cosmoem and Celesteela have the same weight.

Grayson Wells cut it

I have actually done it
Idk
Grayson Wells works in ruby/saphire/emerald aswell, i remember cutting my way through sometimes when i didnt wanna battle
what makes pikachu and meowth even more similar to tom and jerry is that 90% of the time the mouse wins the fight, but sometimes the cat will win, which is seen in both tom and jerry and in a few episodes of the anime.

There isn’t any color, though.

When he plays the cries, he messed it up, as well. He played the Nidorina cry over the Nidorino, and vice versa

srsly? wow...
Bukan Hamid how the heck does that even happen
that will almost never happen unless its from tri attack

actually, tri-attack has 6.66% chance
while secret power (in snow or ice) has 30%

For that Mew Vs. Mewtwo fact, it’s actually because (according to the manga for sure) that mew was undiscovered before mewtwo was created, and mewtwo was interacted with before mew got fully registered

Professor Rowan probably didn't wear a lab coat because of his line of research. He studied myths and legends. It wouldn't make sense for a guy studying history to wear a lab coat. So he opts for a nicer looking coat instead.
Jackson Christensen he also studied evolution
Useless fact: croagunk in sinnoh games has red cheeks and in the anime it has orange cheeks
Late to this discussion but I believe Mew coming after Mewtwo is because although Mew was known to exist hence the DNA sample being used to create Mewtwo, the Pokemon simply wasn't actually discovered and seen (plus the whole memory wiping) until after Mewtwo was created and thereby being after in dex entry
YOU CAN CUT GRASS!!??
My life has been a lie......
You can do it in gen 3 also, not just 1 and 2
@@hillelziv7353 Yes, I first noticed that in pokemon emerald in the very high grass that annoyed me because you can't use your bike there.
@@hillelziv7353 And not only that, you apparently get better results if you use one of the six Pokémon with the Ability Hyper Cutter.
I bet this has already been said but the lake trio actually haso sets of words to connect them

I have a few interesting useless facts for you all!
1. A pesterball literally contains poison.
2. Lickitung has a pretty long tongue.
3. Despite its frequent Pokedex description, Arcanine is in fact not a legendary Pokemon.
4. Mew is basically a cat fetus
5. The last time Butch and Cassidy appeared in the anime was Diamond and Pearl. :(
6. Lucario has a 90% chance of turning you into a gay furry.
RIP Biff and Cassidy. I mean they were great counterparts to Jessie and James, and I just loved Bill as a character. Cassidy was a bit of an asshole though, I remember hating her at the time. I always loved bin though
HEHEHE I AM A SUPAHSTAR VILLAIN
How do you misspell Butch's name twice?
Cameytoe The joke intended was a reference to the anime where everyone gets Butch's name wrong.
Nathan Colmenares
I forgot about those jokes. Very clever in retrospect. Thank you for letting me know
I always saw Mew as a mouse fetus based on cloning and experimentations on mice
Alomomola is also a pallendrome. Like Ho-oh eevee and girafarig
*Alomomola. Still a palindrome, though.

According to wikipedia "Zbtb7, originally named Pokemon, is a gene that may act as a master switch for cancer", wow, and also this "The original name, Pokemon, stands for "POK erythroid myeloid ontogenic factor" and is most likely a backronym of the Pokémon media franchise. The Pokémon Company, not wanting the bad press inherent with its trademark sharing a name with a cancer-causing gene, threatened the center with legal action in December 2005, at which point MSKCC decided to rename it as Zbtb7."
Vaki Smithy haha pokemon is cancer
when i got the notification, at first I thought it was on some random comment i made 2 years ago saying that i like pokemon, but here it makes a lot more sense
Pokémon is based of Pocket monsters dumbo

@@AVSplays "The original name, Pokemon, stands for "POK erythroid myeloid ontogenic factor" That refers to the 'Pokemon gene', not the actual game series -_- Pokemon is short for Pocket Monster in terms of the franchise but the Pokemon GENE name was that shortened.
