Wobbuffet is based after the japanese comedian Sanpei Hayashiya, who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, "そうなんす、奥さん" (sō nansu, okusan), "That's the way it is, ma'am." Which Wobbuffet's japanese name makes allusion to (ソーナンス Sonans). Basically every time Wobbuffet appeared after Team Rocket's motto in the anime, was complimenting their words with a "That's the way it is".
Thus making the motto: JAMES And Make it double! JESSIE To protect the world from devastation! JAMES To unite all peoples within our nation! JESSIE To denounce the evils of truth and love JAMES To extend our reach to the stars above JESSIE Jessie! JAMES James! JESSIE Team Rocket, blasts off at the speed of light JAMES Surrender now, or prepare to fight! MEOWTH Meowth! That’s right! WOBBUFET That’s the way it is
I'm not a 100% sure about mu next sentence being real but it night be the same case with tom nook because in japan he's a tanuki and in other versions he's a raccoon again noy a 100% sure
a a2 you’re both correct (sorta). Since we don’t have tanuki in the USA, it’s a localization thing. Like how the Pokémon anime called the rice balls (onigiri) donuts. That’s because onigiri aren’t as common here and kids wouldn’t get it. Animal crossing actively calls tanuki and items related to them “raccoons” because it’s easier for Americans to understand.
Snorlax is actually based on one of the developers of the game, Koji Nishino. Its japanese name, "Kabigon", which was a nickname given to nishino for his infamous ability to eat even moldy food.
Man, Jackie Chan Adventures used to be my absolute jam when I was younger! Such a good show. I’m also glad to see the positive recognition from KISS. They’re awesome, and they totally deserve this tribute.
pokemon, "we dont use real people as inspiration for pokemon" when talking about uri geller as kadabra also pokemon, "lets make a frickin gene simmons pokemon"
Me clicking on Poketips vid expecting the intro, "Hi I'm Mike, Poketips Mike." but getting slapped in the face with, "Hi, I'm Poketips Mike": (Insert confused screaming meme format here)
Now, the Bruce Lee/Hitmonlee vs Jackie Chan/Hitmonchan fight. This one has some things that must be known to be anywhere close to being accurately determined The main thing that must be known: status of Jackie Chan; is he completely unencumbered and ready to fight to the end in mortal combat (not Kombat, let's leave that out of this this time around)? Or is he, instead, holding a baby in one arm, a priceless fragile vase in the other, while heavily drunk, in a furniture store, with added ladders/mops/buckets/rope around, and he wants *_no trouble_* ? Because if the latter, this is a _really_ tough call to make
i miss Jackie Chan adventure. Remember the golden rules. "We must do research" "Sorry i will bring this back thank you!!!" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao"
Nice i didnt know any of them except The Hitmons btw Verlisify posted a video about answering u its an hour 20 minutes long please if u are gonna react to it cut it in to like 15mins. Keep up The good work.
Wobbuffet was made to look like a Japanese comedian called Sanpei Hayashiya, Wobbuffet's Japanese name 'Sonansu' comes from Hayashiya's catchphrase "so nansu, okusan." Which means "That's the way it is, ma'am."
Eevee is named and based off of evie from descendants with the name and cuteness of her character. Eevee has many evolutions just like how evie has so many different styles. And in let's go eevee you can give eevee a crown which is a reference to evie's style.
It’s not a name, but in Japanese, Hitmontop is named Kapoerer, named after the Brazilian fighting/dance style Capoeira, which is a style centered around fighting/dancing on your head and hands.
the kadabra was based off a child turning into a pokemon slowly and slowly as the process gets worst and people make him faint, in pokemon battles, and he suffers the loneliness of not being able to be known as a child of the parent.
Since there is a Pokemon based on Gene Simmons...there needs to be be a Sting (the singer not the wrestler), Bowie, Ozzy, or Mick Jagger inspired Pokemon. You could sort of say that Zangoose looks a bit like the cover of David Bowie's Aladdin Sane album.
So far gen 3 is the one with the most Pokémon based on real life objects instead of animals. 3:14 James Randi can prove this is totally just a trick. He dedicates his life to disprove any claims by “psychics” or anyone who wants to scam people, like ghost hunters.
I'm fairly confident that Wobuffet's appearance, name and regular joke in the Japanese version of the TV show is a reference to a famous Japanese comedian, but I can't remember who.
Hey, PokeTips, Just wanted to let you know that Verlisify put out another video trying to "expose" you. It's an hour long, was uploaded 4 days ago, and only has at least 10 thousand views. Just thought I'd mention it here.
Here is another one: Empoleon, the final evolution in the Piplup family, is based off of Napoleon Bonaparte. They are the same hight and their names are fairly similar. There are more similarities, but I don’t know all of them.
I've never listened to the band KISS before, don't hate me! 😂 Do you know any more Pokemon that were inspired by people?
Me too only in scoobydoo
Snorlax is actually based on me.
Um... empoleon
Me too
Omg i did an video about this to i got that idea bc my parents lissen to rock so much so i was like THATS KISS NO QUESTIONS ASKT
Galarian Weezing is based off of Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Galarian Dimmadome
Gim Gymadome?
Mumbo jumbo (england)
slucarios DD is a real person?

"Bad day bad day bad day!"
"ONE MORE THING!"
"YOU DO NOT QUESTION UNCLE! >:V"
I loved that show
Magic must defeat magic
That show was great
WHO WANTS A PIECE OF UNCLE?
Missed Empoleon, who is named after Napoleon Bonaparte, they even have the same height.
"But its not just insects, wild animals or food that inspired Pokemon designs..."
Me: Yes, there are keychains, gears, DIY slime, Pokeballs, trash...
Zigzagoon isn't based off of a raccoon but off of a Japanese Tanuki
Me when he said that:🤦♀️
I was about to comment that, too, to be honest.
I'm not a 100% sure about mu next sentence being real but it night be the same case with tom nook because in japan he's a tanuki and in other versions he's a raccoon again noy a 100% sure

Empoleon is based on Napoleon. The swords of justice and Keldeo are based on the Four Musketeers.
Pokemon fire ls
They aren’t real people tho
*Three musketeers
Orca 0418 there are four
@Ghost Are you implying that Napoleon doesn’t exist? If not, be more specific.
Actually isn't Snorlax based on a member of the game freak team?
No...its based off of me;
Yes, i thought he'll mention Snorlax
If so, it was probably based off of Masuda because of how lazy he is.
it is, and he happily enjoyed the joke
We all know slaking was based on you reading this right now
Shiit, you right
Oooof

You're right

Michael: "I can barely speak English."

Detective Pikachu flashbacks
Snorlax was inspired by one of the old game developers i think. yup i double checked, it's inspired by game designer koji nishino
I just got done reading an article about Gene Simmons(kiss) reaction to obstagoon
Sword Master11 did he like Obstagoon?
I recall when Jackie Chan Adventures used to air on tv usually after school for me 😁
No one cares gay

I’m also glad to see the positive recognition from KISS. They’re awesome, and they totally deserve this tribute.
I LOVE the Kiss reference :P It's a seriously GOOD band and sadly they decide to stop. So adding them to Pokémon, is making me happy :P

pokemon, "we dont use real people as inspiration for pokemon" when talking about uri geller as kadabra
also pokemon, "lets make a frickin gene simmons pokemon"
The Thumbnail is really creeping me off
Serdem Sener I agree with you it does look a bit creepy
Good
How's that? It doesn't really flinch me
Why?
I think it's pretty cool
**Hitting Pokemon Bruce Lee**
**Hitting Pokemon Jackie Chan**
Keep up the great Pokémon videos
This is a great video some of this I really didn’t know especially about Kadabra evolving despite the everstone.
Dang it! I was going to prank someone with an everstone holding kadabra with wonder trade!😡

Digging the sinnoh lake theme in the background. Lol it’s actually my ringtone!
Actually zigzagoon is based off of a Japanese raccoon dog

Effing loved Jackie Chan Adventures. Great show.
I recognized the KISS inspiration immediately the first time I played SW/SH
I remember that Jackie Chan TV show, I loved it so much QwQ
Jackie Chan Adventures was awesome.
His niece Jade and Uncel were the best.
The rabbit and rooster talisman were the best aswell.
Expects Pokémon.
Gets childhood nostalgia.
I remember Jackie Chan Adventures. I love that show. I wish I could get it all on DVD
Poketips: *calls zigzagoon a raccoon*
Me: how dare you its a tanooki dog
OMG! I remembered Jackie Chan Adventures!! That show was great lol.
Obstagoon looks cool.
Nobody:
Pokemon: Alright whatcha got for humans
Guy: Mr Geler
Geler: BISHWAHT-
Yungoos and gumshoos were actually supposed to be old school detectives
Jackie chan adventures was quite the trip
Eyy, Jackie Chan Adventures! I loved that show, and hearing it mentioned is a very nostalgic throwback for me now
your voice is so charming, just by hearing your videos i get a nice vibe of chill and breeze
Now, the Bruce Lee/Hitmonlee vs Jackie Chan/Hitmonchan fight. This one has some things that must be known to be anywhere close to being accurately determined
The main thing that must be known: status of Jackie Chan; is he completely unencumbered and ready to fight to the end in mortal combat (not Kombat, let's leave that out of this this time around)?
Or is he, instead, holding a baby in one arm, a priceless fragile vase in the other, while heavily drunk, in a furniture store, with added ladders/mops/buckets/rope around, and he wants *_no trouble_* ?
Because if the latter, this is a _really_ tough call to make
I thought the abra was named after this..
ABRA KADABRA ALAKAZAM!
Right!
i miss Jackie Chan adventure. Remember the golden rules. "We must do research" "Sorry i will bring this back thank you!!!" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao" "yu mo gwai gui fai de zao"
Damn he strong.
I thought zigzagoon(regular) was based on a tanuki?
Shut up

I remember it. Season 5 was weak until the series finale though.

I Need you to tell us more about pokémon sword & sheild!!
No
The guy that " bends spoons with his mind " probably uses galium spoons because galium has such a low melting point it can melt from body heat
Nice i didnt know any of them except The Hitmons btw Verlisify posted a video about answering u its an hour 20 minutes long please if u are gonna react to it cut it in to like 15mins.

Lopunny is based off of playboy bunnies
I thought you would mention Empoleon. I noticed him right at the beginning and had that thinking.
Jackie Chan Adventures was the bomb!
Uses to watch Jackie chan adventures every morning before school.
The only one I already knew was the Hitmonchan line - I even named my own Hitmonchan, Hiroyuki 😁

Well, I know the queen of England LOVES her dogs. Maybe thats why they say Pamper was inspired by the queen
