I always wish Game Freak will do more with ultra beasts, there could be so many interesting takes on aliens and invasive species from other countries I would love to see and learn about
Agreed
I really wish ultra beasts became a permanent mainstay of Pokémon.
It will take a long time, but I think all generations will eventually get a legends game. So I think we will see New Ultra Beasts one day
new ultra beast shows up in paldea trying to plant a flag in levincia and claim it's "discovery"
Flooding the game with more Legendary Pokémon isn't a good idea.
I really love that there is someone who understands the risks Pokemon take instead of just saying "they are out of ideas".
“It doesn’t look like a pokemon.” My guy, it’s called being original.
"They dont look like a pokemon" my 人間 thats exactly the point
Edit: how many versions of the same comment can exist? I did mine
"No luce como un Pokémon" dale flaco, ese es literalmente el punto.
@@capuchinosofia4771argentina pa?
@@deadlydingus1138 And being original doesn't mean they run out of idea. If you don't like them and just say "they run out of ideas" that's called being bias, stuck with your nostalgia goggles and, mostly, being bad faith. Each pokémon are inspired from something and not a developper did something silly during his work and say "let's make a pokémon from my dumb mistake".
I love that Poipole is a starter in the other dimension
Legends Alola starters LEAK?!?!?!😜🤪😜🤪
@@Alex-lc5dz wait that would actually be sick
@@Alex-lc5dz what if you got sucked into the ultra beats realm instead of the past
@IceWallowPprobably a Ground type and a Grass type, though secondary types are a nightmare because of Dragon. Normally I'd say Ground Fairy or Ground Steel, but that'd either mean Grass Steel, which nullifies the triangle, or G/S just nullifies the triangle directly. Best I can come up with is just throw dragon on everything and cry in a corner about the game balance...
@@theapexsurvivor9538because they have to be perfect, one is weak to the 2 types, other is resistant.
Celesteela also being a reference to the princess kaguya myth really makes it stand out amongst the ultra beasts in my opinion
Isn’t kartana supposed to be the bamboo cutter?
It's also a reference to the Kaguya spacecraft; that's why it's a rocket.
@@NovaSaber it is also a rocket because princess kaguya came from the moon and returned there by the end of the story
To be fair clowns are an invasive species.
Yeah, really dwindling the mime populations where I live
And walls are basically the invasive object
They are not! Clowns are are native to most of the world, as the entertainus genus is very widespread, you are probably thinking of the typical circus clonw, since they were bred in large number during the rise of circuses, i hope you will do your research on the complex history of clowns as a species
They are invasive to France. The mines there can’t compete with the silly of clowns, driving their numbers down.
Honestly the idea of there being some special stema based on pseudo sciences seems like a neat idea to me
a homeopathy stema that loses HP as it evolves but ramps up its attack stat exponentially
@@HazelKnight34 so sort of like Swarm, Torrent, Blaze, and Overgrow?
@@cobaltordinaire5219 kinda but on an evolutionary scale, like the first stage is gonna have the highest hp stat while the last stage has the lowest hp but with ridiculous attack and special attack
@@HazelKnight34 give the first one eviolite and the last choice scarf
those aren't in the game, but still. i've also always liked the idea of a pokemon losing stats on evolution, hopefully one day they lean into that more
As an absolute fan of generation 7, the ultrabeasts are some of my favorite pokemon groups so far. I really hope Game Freak doesn't leave them behind because there are many ways to continue the idea of aliens and invasive species. (There are no ice, ground, water, psychic nor fairy type ultrabeasts)
I'd totally take an Ultra Beast based on invasive mussels, which are actually currently a problem in the Tennessee River, which I live next to.
@@aesiro13in-invasive muscles? Is this some kind of health problem I'm unaware of?
@@pandanarian7625 I think they mean mussels, like the clam
*Fairy lamprey UB*
@@aesiro13An invasion of muscles?
gen 7 is so unbelievably under appreciated… like it has such high quality pokémon world building and pokémon
one of my favourite parts of being an ultra beast fan is that they're probably the least divided part of the fandom in my own experience
i mean most other pokemon groups have a good few people in them that would happily chew on your hand for having a different favourite member than them
meanwhile for the ultra beasts i've yet to encounter a single person like that. can put a stakataka fan in a room with a buzzswole lover and a guzzlord enjoyer, and it's just hi-fives into handshakes all around
Pheromosa fans might be getting weird stares but that honestly depends on the type of pheromosa fan 😂
I may not love them all, but any other Ultra Beast fan is good in my book!
@@theultimatefreak666I can second this personally.
Well competitive pokemon fans may look at you weird for liking guzzlord since it's the only ultra beast that kinda sucks in battle. Every other ultra beast, including stakataka despite it's typing, does well
@@SakhotGamer stakataka was very good in doubles! trick room + gyro ball goes hard
Not really related to the topic but you're like the only RUclipsr ive seen who actually brings up the times Pokemon took risks and it didn't go well for them. Like you can rag on Gamefreak all you want but it bugs the heck out of me when people are like "pokemon is so lazy for not changing it up".
It bothers me a lot when people say that and dont take their time to understand that gamefreak did take risks and it did backfire so we cant have a big game that changes everything up for now and for a while. This may be why we are skipping a gen 5 remake all together and instead going for a gen 6 legenda game.
@@sketch-eee4165 It's also unclear how they'd handle Black and White having sequels. Black and White 2 were the "complete"/"upper" versions of Gen V like Emerald and Platinum were for their gens, and upper versions were never remade before.
@@alpacalover0black and white 2 were a sequel. They would make a black and white 3
@alpacalover0 yeeeeh that too. I was imagininf maybe the players play a double pack remake game. Like you have a save slot for pokemon black and another for pokemon black 2 (data for all the pokemon is in both so you can play online with either or saves) and once your done with the first game; you unlock its sequel remake, with a secret fight with the last game's protagonist and their league team. But then again, that sounds too complicated.
The best set of Pokemon to ever grace the franchise. Alien, full of character, diverse in Typing and shape, and INCREDIBLY unique. Nihilego is my third-favorite Pokemon ever now due to their IRL basis , creepy elegance, and plot significance.
They're all my misunderstood Eldritch friends and I love them.
Making a Post-Game in an astronomy area where you get the astrology group would be awesome. Also works as potential update/DLC
the evil team is a bunch of astrologists who think science is bs
@@amberhide04each member is based on a fallacy and specific type of science denial, so one might be Appeal to Authority and a believe Arceus made the world 7000 years ago and that regional forms don't constitute macroevolution, while another is Argument from Ignorance and is convinced vaccinations are actually Naganadel trying to mind control the population, etc...
i do think it would make more sense if it wasn't just the astrology pokemon if they could be caught normally,
but it's not like phycoanalytics (primarily the work's of Carl Jung) isn't just sitting there now is it, because if anything in this world is weirder than most i think that's it.
Nihilego is a parasyte, like a Metroid, Pheromosa comes from a highly advanced society, Buzzwole absorbs creatures energy, Xurkitree is related to power outages (common to ufo activity), Celesteela is a rocket, Kartana is the tiny yet deadly alien life form, Guzzlord is an ELDRICH HORROR and a planet eater.
Stakataka is a hivemind organism, Blacephalon is Pennywise from the novel IT (another cosmic horror), and the Poipole line represents the two sides of aliens in pop culture.
The friendly pet chibi alien, and a XENOMORPH.
parasite
Wait there’s a society of Pheromosa? Damn, maybe we could have a Mystery Dungeon game their then if other Pokemon live there
@@seandorama5932 yeah, in their origin world they have houses and all.
And just there are Pheromosas nothing else.
Plus by design they have a superiority complex to any normal living creature.
@@seandorama5932 if anything would be an alternative location based in the Ultraspace.
something about the ultra beasts' cries not mentioned in the video: all ultra beasts emit a common ethereal sound at the end of their cries; interestingly, this also applies to the cosmog line and all forms of necrozma
Honestly, having the twelve zodiac stema be secret minibosses to reward exploration could be pretty cool, kinda like the legendary birds in the first Pokémon games.
I kinda hate that they didn't give Blacephalon a homeworld... Its easily my favorite of the Ultra Beasts because out of all of them its easily the most bizarre. With the rest, all of them still, to a degree, somewhat fit in with the rest of the Pokemon designs. Blacephalon doesn't. Everything about it looks off… the anatomy is much more unusual (The head and eyes especially look off in a good way) And it's the only one with an uncanny method of attack, being that it throws in own head so it can explode upon contact. Neither it nor Stakataka have homeworlds which is unfortunate to say the least. given the circus elements its very interesting to theorize what Blacephalon's home could look like.
I always imagined for Poipole and Naganadel
An Abandoned Laboratory shrouded somewhere in the darkness surrounding Ultra Megalopolis. The only available light is from a corrosive neon purple goop spread throughout the facility. Requires using a small pokemon to crawl through vents to unlock puzzles & doors. Final room has a giant smashed open canister overlooking a pit, a harsh purple glow at the bottom where the goop ate through the floor surrounding the canister. A curious poipole appears, available to catch. After catching/defeating, a very upset Naganadel attacks you, having a Totem Aura that boosts each stat by 1 stage. Basically a secret 9th Totem battle for you after you beat the main story. Instead of Poipole just being a gift, it gets its own little expedition quest you can go on by talking to the same NPC. You could also do it infinitely similar to the other UB wormholes, except each time after you beat the Totem Naganadel, it'll only be a Poipole that appears
For Stakataka, probably some large labyrinth, thinking of something similar to Maze Runner?
And for Blacephalon, i'd imagine an alien-ish looking cityscape with an even more alien looking circus tent. If you talk to the NPCs, they mention how it just showed up one day and everyone has been too scared to check inside. Similar to Hollow Knight's Grimm Troupe. Would be nice to see another UB from a Human world, like Ultra Ruin & Ultra Megalopolis
Idk why, but I have a random headcanon blacephalon is from the same place as xurkitree, just in a different part. And are natural enemies.
@Selfdestructingwii One is related to electricity, the other to explosions
I can see the relation
@@BreakyOnline plus there's an episode where the two try to literally outperform eachother
no way i actually suggested in one video the idea of making stema creatures based on scientific mysteries and stuff like that, i don't think N0rtist actually saw it however, but its cool to see my idea made in somewhat
the ultra beasts are such a cool part of pokemon, like they all have absolute banger designs
The ultra beasts are my most favourite Pokemon
Same!
Based
Same
Ah yes, Origami is the scariest invasive species...
Love the beasts. 7:31 unexpected Northernlion jumpscares are my favorite RUclips gag because they show up on the most random of channels
I hope GF continues adding weirdos, both new and continuing support of the groups we have now!
As Thorgi's arcade says, in Fighting Games, it's not just the Faces. YOU NEED THE FREAKS!
Your bit on developers being affraid to break the mold is on point. People for a long time complained that every game is similar and the designs are just animals with fantastical features and at the time, for me, the ultra beasts were a breath of fresh air, i absolutely loved the concept of extra-dimensional beings invading the main universe and still working like regular mons because they just were in their original world.
Also, blacephalon is best boy and i will fight over it
I’m actually a Capricorn, and I’m also a topology enthusiast. BTW, the only horoscopes I really ever read are the ones from The Onion.
Also, I think it really cool that you made one of your “extradimensional” astrology-based STEM monsters based on a four-dimensional structure.
Ultra beasts have always been my personal favorite group of pokemon. 10/10 designs across the board for me, think it was my gateway into my weird tastes in creature design
I'm sick of trying
Tierd of crying
Yeah I'm smiling
But inside I'm * guzzlord anime cry *
Man, I just want to give props for the bg music! The Melody that starts around 7:30 was quite impressive with how it seamlessly transitioned between several different tunes caught me my surprise!
It might of been a thing through-out the whole video, but that is when I first noticed it.
Now it could make sense since Ultra Beasts belongs to the Outer Space Tribe while the Paradox Pokemons does belong to the Time Travel Tribe
the Northernlion Pokedoku clips are hilarious - this is the first time I've seen a pokemon content creator reference him
It's so funny
Stakataka is probably partially inspirited by a siphinophore, which is invasive in Hawaii.
Blacephalon is probably partially inspired by a dandelion, which are invasive in Hawaii (and many other locations).
I LOVE the zodiac inspiration for Stema's odd designs!! Using the Klein bottle as a funnel for sand made for an amazing silhouette, and just the ominous outlines of the other 11 makes me excited to see what else you have! I don't mind waiting all the way until Stema's postgame though
Ultra Beasts are cool as something so out there and alien in a way that even the “alien” pokemon are not but it really makes no sense to include them in the Pokedex. I understand the outrage it would’ve caused but it would’ve been so cool if they were something exclusive to Gen 7 as an extra thing that couldn’t move to Gen 8. Also - I liked the catch rates from Sun and Moon and I’m sad they changed it. The idea that Buzzwole was a route one creature in its universe was such a cool piece of world building that got written out
YOO The one that gets spotlight is mine! Astrology in the science themed game works perfectly for this (I also had the casual uh-oh in my head at that mention), I like this guy he's very funky.
Loved the video. The scenes showed, detailed description of the ultrabeasts concept, also the fact that you are making a creature collector game yourself, up to the mood-change supportive farewell.
First of your videos I watch but I'm subscribing. Thank you, it was a really fun, informative and even inspiring video. ❤
One of my favorite videos you have done so far! Great work
I love Pheromosa. The fact that she can reach speeds faster than most just because of the lightweight nature of her body is fascinating.
Also: PRESENTATION!!!
I want them to make a sci-fi horror inspired game where you have the search out Ultra Beast encounters to document them... Like a combination of Detective Pikachu and the X-Files. That would be so cool. The Ultra Beasts have so much mystery and intrigue, and their alien-like designs would be perfect for mild sci-fi horror stories.
This is my favourite concept ever introduced in Pokémon.
They're weird af and don't look even like Pokémon.
Kinda sad how they got replaced by POKÉMON BUT UGA BUGA and POKÉMON BUT ROBOT.
Ultra beasts my beloved
I love how your Celesteela emoji drawing feels so ... compacted compared to the original one hehe
Also, Pheromosa for life. Death to Buzzwole !!
couldnt care less about the topic, but funky freaking thumbnail, keep making em like that PLEASE
I love your positivity and good vibes. Your videos are always great. Keep it up! You're great!
I absolutely love the UBs, and it's funny how I made a Mobius-strip inspired (Ultra Beast fakemon) creature at one point too!
Great video ❤
Coromon has one of the nices shiny systems ive seen and has so much charm like the old pixel art pokemon games was great to see it get some love, great video glad i found you afew weeks ago
I love how the background music’s leitmotifs change based on what’s being talked about. It’s like the whole thing is a mashup of
:O damn. this video is sick and amazin
I adore the Ultra-Beasts, so im very happy to see a video about them that's positive!!! My absolute favorites are Pheremosa and Nihilego, although Celesteela and Blacephalon are up there :D
I wasn't aware of the invasive species inspiration however. Makes me like them even more!
I absolutely adore UBs. I’m torn because I really want more, but the fact that they’re so different is such a big part of what I love about them! I definitely want them to stay under 1% of the total Pokemon population.
When I first played SM I hadn’t seen any of the trailers other than the starter reveal, so my first time encountering Nihilego was mind-blowing.
Caprikleiiiiin soooo cool!!!! The 3 eyes!!!! The hole as a spot to shoot stuff out of! Really awsome design!
I really like your style man its always awesome to see how you draw the pokemon and your own designs. Also using zodiacs for your designs is really cool because of the whole pseudoscience thing considering the theme of your game.
I ALWAYS LOVED ULTRA BEASTS! THEIR ALIEN-FEELING AND UNNERVING NATURE JUST FELT SO COOL AND HONESTLY SHOULD BE USED AGAIN, OR AT LEAST INSPIRE ANOTHER IDEA
I'm so glad to hear you talk about dr cliff stoll!!! i love his numberphile videos, hes such an inspiring guy
For an "otherwordly" theme in a STEM design, I'd suggest things that don't or can't exist.
The Klein bottle is actually a decent example because it can't exist in 3 dimensions, but any kind of physical paradox could work.
Penrose Triangle, Devil's Tuning Fork, Impossible Cube, Crazy Stairs, the impossibilities are endless!
There's actually a way to distinguish between ultra beast and regular pokemon.
At the end of their cry they have space like sound.
Hey @n0Rtist, love your videos! Couple of extra bits here as a Native Hawaiian
1. (Not so) fun fact, another reason mongooses were a terrible idea for staving off rats was because rats are nocturnal, while mongooses are diurnal, so each would attack native birds day and night 😮 Also cool to point out how they’re put in either Pokemon Sun and Moon respectively!
2. Appreciate the pronunciation of Hawaiʻi, great job! However, the word Hawaiian is actually not a Hawaiian word, so you can pronouce it with the ‘w’ sound rather than the ‘v’ sound.
Thanks for the video!
oh this explains so much lol im not one who keeps up too hard with pokemon, but i see it a lot because i still like it, and i NEVER knew what the deal was with these different looking ones, i didnt even know they were connected! i always liked them for their designs and how they stuck out!
also for other creature collection games, theres also ones on roblox! like loomian legacy, tales of tanorio, and doodle world! whats nice about them is that not only are they high quality and clearly full of love, but theyre free, which is soo nice nowadays
thank you for always putting the bug warnings up, just another reason why u r the goat B)
7:34 seeing NL of all people pop up and then seeing his reaction gave me whiplash tbh
I haven't played through too many Indie creature collectors, but I highly recommend Cassette Beasts, tons of fun, quite a few creative designs, variable difficulty (that you can change partway through if you put it too hard/easy), great characters, and an interesting twist on combat that makes early game moves still viable to keep around, even at the end game.
A Pokémon based on animals that where affected by the chernoble power plant disaster, such as the catfish that grew to sizes as large as some sharks would be spectacular!
7:37 no way! Hahaha. I was literally thinking about this clip from just the thumbnail of this video.
I hope we get more Ultra Beasts in future Pokemon games. They always had such unique typings and designs, so it’d be great to have more.
ULTRA BEAST HAS LIKE FIVE OF MY FAVORITE POKÉMON LETS GO
And they are?
Really really enjoy both the idea of Klein bottles and the Capricorn creature. Phenomenal, adore it
STEMA is such a cool concept :D I think perplexing, fun science concepts like the klein bottle and non-euclidean geometry would also serve as a good inspiration for ultra beast-esque creatures. Things that are not, and cannot be in the world we perceive, but could exist in layers beyond what we know. If that makes sense. I'm not good at articulating.
Finally someone actually recognized how cool ultra beasts are. I would LOVE a legends game that takes place in ultra-space. A whole entire class left in one generation would be a huge mistake to not bring it back and expand on them further. Theres only a small handful of them now, imagine if we had like 20 of them!! They are new, powerful, unique, and fun to look at. I loved the ultra beasts the second I met them
I love these guys so much. I just want more of them, or attention for them
No the mascot legendaries are considered ancient Ultra Beasts that adapted the Pokémon world's atmosphere
Don’t forget that guzzlord while being one of the weird ultra beast, also has some weird similarities to another Pokémon: Zygarde?
Great video! Love the point of not everything sharing a single brand name. It's culture, but it's marketing and branding culture. So anything that has the resources to be widespread/monopolize is gonna become the next kleenex 😂
As an artist, I love seeing the thinking behind designs. Being rather long-lived, Pokémon has developed a design philosophy but you can see each generation has their own inner conventions within that wider philosophy. Gen 7 is one of my favorites.
"A Pokémon can come from anywhere"
That's the beauty of it, the artists take wild concepts and then turn it into a pet. For example: Hatterene is a reference to princesses, witches and childhood.
Princess: the face revealed through a window at the top of a "tower", its body.
Witch: the hat
Childhood: the cotton candy coloration
Childhood could also be a reference to the fact that Hatterene, her actual body, is like, 1 foot tall
When I clicked on this video I did not expect to finally get a good explanation of what the deal is with the Klein bottle! Genuinely the best explanation I’ve ever heard, I never truly understood it until now.
By the way, I love your zodiac UBs ideas!! That fits so well with your premise!!
7:58 The only game I can think of that had upgraded graphics without just looking realistic is Brilliant Diamond/ Shining Pearl. They really capture the cartoony world design of older games while still being visually great.
I love how Gamefreak approaches thier alien Pokémon like the UBs, Necrozma, Deoxys and Beeheyem. They treat them with a lot more mystery and feel a lot more ominous than any other Mon
Really great video!
I love the Ultra Beasts. They were my favorite part about gen 7.
I look forward to seeing the others
omg I'm being reminded of when I tried to make my own ultra beast fakemon based off the zodiac! it's really hard to design a pokemon while intentionally making it not look like a pokemon, especially when working with the concepts of the zodiacs, but I absolutely found it helpful to take the base concept and think "how would a different series make a creature based off this zodiac?" doesn't even have to be a creature collector, depending on how out there you want to go you can ask "how would Zelda design this creature?" or "how would Dark Souls design this creature?" or even outside of games like "how would the Godzilla movies design this creature?" and then try to see if you can merge that design with a few traits of your own creature style to find a nice balance where it's not too jarring compared to your other creatures but still sticks out and looks alien in comparison
A couple tidbits: Ultra, Dusk Mane, and Dawn Wings Necrozma all have the ULTRA BEAST tag in the TCG. And the roach species Nocticola pheromosa, got its name from Pheromosa
The background music is so good aaaaaaaaaaaah I hear motifs everywhere
The Ultra Beasts are still my absolute favorite concept in Pokemon. They're weird, they're whacky, they make absolute no god damn sense and I LOVE IT.
Also, a perfect Ultra Beast equivalent for your Project Stem would be creatures based on magic! Necromancy, pyromancy, biomancy, etc.; it breaks the rules of science, just like how Ultra Beasts break the rules of Pokemon design.
13:27
Okay this this small rant about how Pokemon has made a monopoly on the creature collecting genre is similar to how Doom got the first person shooter genre going. When first person shooters first started getting going they were called Doom clones.
Dusk and Dawn necrozma are considered ultra beasts, they have the ultra beast tag in the pokemon TCG.
Solgaleo and Lunala may as well, they just don't have the tag to avoid spoilers, since the cards were released early in the game's lifecycle.
They are special (at least solgaleo and lunala) because they have adapted to live in our dimension, that may be also the reason they lost the ultra beast clasification.
thanks for actually giving gamefreak props for what they've tried. Exhausting seeing fans get mad at stuff like 'flamigo is just a flamingo' at the same time hating stuff like the legendary beast paradox forms being too weird like there's no winning for some fans i guess. Also northernlion jumpscare lol
I really want a Legends-style game where we get to further explore the Ultra Space Dimensions
I especially want to see more Pokemon from each homeworld, maybe even regional style ones from our world, like an Ultra Deep Sea Lanturn
I like this set of mons. Celesteela, Pheromosa, and Kartana being my fav of the set.
For the invasive species comparisons, Stakataka is (I suspect) a colonial organism like a salp or man o’ war and Blacephalon is based on dandelions. I think somebody proposed that Kartana is based on kudzu but that’s a stretch for sure
The ultra beasts have to be my favorite pokemon sub-group ever. They not only allow for some outrageous designs, but concepts as well. It helps that when you look at a pokemon that is so bizarre in appearance, you immediately think ultra beast. The ultra beasts as a whole unlock a whole new dimension of pokemon and fakemon designs, yours included.
Love Capriklein!
Though, I do think it'd be better to make the abilities of itself and its cohorts something that won't be a renamed Beast Boost.
Really random thought which has probably been said here already, but what if stakataka is based on the English takeover of Wales in the 1200s. There were a lot of castles built there by the English and it was a sort of invasion
Idk, thats just my 2 cents
Wasn’t expecting a science lesson but it was a great video.
What invasive species ultra beasts were based on
Buzzwole: Mosquito
Pheromosa: roach
Nihilego: jellyfish
Xurkitree: lighting
Celesteela: rocket ships
Kartana: Origami
Guzzlord: McDonald’s
Poipole: wasp
Naganadel: wasp
Stakataka: brick
Blacephalon: clown
I find it funny how a muscular mosquito, a bomb clown, and a sentient brick wall are all part of the same group.
Average comic book villain group
Now that you point out that Blacephalon has Bellibolt-like eyes, I suddenly love Blacephalon now. I'm making some Pokemon-like science-based designs on my own, and sneak peek + I want feedback on this: an Eevee-like that has 7 evolutions based on the electromagnetic spectrum. N0rtist, you're my favourite RUclipsr/artist as a science nerd myself. Please remember that!
Completely did not expect to see NorthernLion in a n0rtist video but I was so tickled to all the same!
I'm so fascinated by the take of astrology as the "aliens" of science. Capriklein is really interesting, and I would be excited to see more of them, or a revisit to them!
your bug warnings are always appreciated
I love Ultra Beasts so much! We already had extraterrestrial Pokémon before, but these guys felt truly alien. I hope we get more of them some day.
I freaking love the ultra beasts so much, especially Xurkitree and Naganadel. I hate it whenever someone says they don’t look like Pokémon, because that’s the point!!
the northernlion jumpscare was much appreciated, if unexpected
