4:15 For anyone who doesn't understand why alolan exeggutor is a dragon type, it's based on the ancient Hawaiian myths of dragons disguising themselves as trees
Fun fact: Ampharos’ name in Japanese is “Denryū” meaning “electric current”. Also in Japanese “Den ryū” means “Electric dragon”. Ampharos’ mega evolution is literally just a Japanese dad joke
I've always felt like Illumise should've been bug/electric type and Volbeat should've been a bug/fire type bc of the names "lightning bug" and "firefly"
I wouldn't expect that much creative thought from developers that refused to take advantage of Yanmega's "massive prehistoric dragonfly" design with a Bug/Dragon typing. It's far ire deserving and suitable for this pair than Flygon ever was.
@@Glowshines yeah, it's two different names for the same thing. Since Illumise and Volbeat are practically the same Pokémon, i think it'd be fitting to reference those different names

I get the feeling that Aromatisse wanted to be the Danse Macabre Pokemon. Danse Macabre was a medieval genre that consisted of death calling people into a dance and slowly taking them away, regardless of status. So having a can can dancing plague doctor is a morbid but effective pun on the concept. Also plague doctors stored dried flowers in the long beak of the mask (but that might be a myth) to keep themselves uninfected, since in medieval era people thought that the bubonic plague could be stopped that way. (also thank you Ms. Nogradi for talking so much about Danse Macabre during literature back in 9th grade. It did stick.)
Yeah the myth is that they thought it stopped the plague! They did use flowers though as stated. It's more just for the smell of corpses and patients. Patients apparently smell quite gross in ORs I can only imagine how bad someone with a horrible infection smelled. I think mostly they didn't want to vomit in the mouth of the mask.

I agree that Jynx has a terrible design, however, it's stats and movepool, even in gen 2, are so good (or at least good enough) that I am unironically using one on my Silver playthrough.
Same - made the decision to use one when I replayed Silver last year and it was honestly the MVP. Controversial, creepy/ugly as hell, but also an underrated Pokemon with an amazing typing.
Jinx can be really good due to it's stats having an amazing spread and pyschic/ice giving good coverage. Of course, ih the big context it's a weak pokemon. But it's a weak pokemon that has a lot going for it.
In Japanese you speak in third person when you want to be polite, so some of the reason you found the hoops movie so annoying might have been because of bad translation
Interesting. Usually, I see the 3rd person speech patterns given to characters that are meant to be childlike or immature or cutesy in Japanese media. Obviously games and anime aren't the same as real life, but Interesting that only characters meant to be seen as immature would use that way of speaking if it's more of a polite thing. Wonder why they do that.
I would imagine it is because of the honorific-heavy nature of Japanese, and the fact that children would thus have to use an upward/polite/respectful word choice when talking to most anyone other than other children of their same age. Overusing that kind of honorific pattern could easily be seen as juvenile as I can easily imagine that young children would use it even when it wasn't necessary, since they're still learning, and anyone trying to 'act childlike' would overemphasize those kinds of language patterns.
Alolan Persian: I am a cat, I say meow. Illumise/Volbeat: we are bugs we say buzz. Mega ampheros: *And I say HEYYYYYYYAAAAYYAAAAAYEHYEH, HEYYYYYYAAAAAAYYYAAAAAYEAH*
Klefki is also an odd Pokémon because the keys that it holds are legitimate keys that people either gave it or lost. One particular Pokémon entry states that when people give Kelfki their keys, it is normally just because they know that Kelfki won’t let it go. Meaning that technically you’re stealing keys whenever you catch a Kelfki.
I like to think that Klefki is the centre of one of those relationship padlock type traditions. In our world, couples will sometimes attach a padlock to a bridge and throw the keys in the river, meaning that the lock cannot be opened up, representing the hoped-for longevity of the relationship. Maybe in the Kalos region they give the keys to a Klefki to symbolise forever -ness instead
Dude, exactly what I said. Alolan Persian looks like someone flattened it's face with a shovel. But your idea's better. Jerry hitting Tom in the face with a shovel. That's probably what inspired it's laughably bad design. The devs were watching Tom and Jerry cartoons when they saw Tom get smacked with a shovel and thought they'd just gotten a new idea for an Alolan form for Persian. A bad one, but an Alolan form, nonetheless.
Personally, I think a firefly/lightning bug duo would be really cool. They’d be related but one would be Bug/Fire and the other would be Bug/Electric. The dependency on how you catch them could be based either on the game version you buy or where you get them in the region, like Shellos and Gastrodon
Supposedly, Volbeat was designed after a greaser, meaning that... It could've been _greased lightning!_ Joke aside, I think the Fairy type would suit Illumise better than Electric or Fire.
Someone tried to point that out, but my friend straight up said "No, Probopass is the Jewish Pokemon." (It wasn't really racist because my friend is Jewish.)
@Lord of the Pineapples I agree. I was battling against my best friend, and he went out Probopass. Me: Why do you have that? I thought you said you didn't like it either. Friend: It takes forever to faint it. **Friend wins battle** Me: *Takes in deep breath and screams into my pillow*
Listening to how you described Quilladin's physical appearance made me hear my childhood bullies' voices again hahahahaha. Pokemon X was the very last pokemon game i have played, because I dont have switch yet. and I liked Quilladin so much because of how he looked on the artworks I saw online, before playing Pokemon X.. so I chose Chespin as my starter Pokemon. so when I get him to evolve to Quilladin, it was like the best days of my life, that I even prevented him from evolving until he reaches level 50 or something..because i felt so comfortable having him as my own Pokemon. I like how he look, because I was once a fat, derpy looking kid, and my Pacific islander genes gave me big nose. I thought it was cute that a Pokemon looked so much like me when I was younger. I now its stupid to compare my old self to a Pokemon, but I thought that was really inspiring to me. Coz I find him so cool, unlike me when I was younger.
That is very cute, I remember keeping lilipup in my party unevolved for half my play trough just bc it looked like my dog at the time, highly ineffective and could barely take on anything but I felt like me child me and my Zafiro were going on the adventure together, I loved it
I mean, I don't think it is stupid at all You are completely allowed to like "stupid" pokemon because everyone sees them in a different way! I LOVE Miltank since forever because I love cows and I am currently studying veterinary and plan to specialize in large animals. I also love most of the water type pokemon even the most mediocre because aquatic animals are my favorite animals in the world!
@@KarateGirl999 It's like taking raichu, giving it a goat beard and calling it a mega evolution. Taking a cute design and then adding stuff to it that don't belong is stupid. It looks aweful
Hi I’m here to debunk the “it’s japanese name means electric dragon” myth (or rather point out it’s ambiguity) using linguistics! Alright, so the first reply mentions that the Japanese name means “electric dragon” but it’s actually a pun because it also means “electrical current”. 電流 (denryu) and 電龍 (denryu) are pronounced the same but have different kanji (Chinese characters) the first different one 流 means “flow” and the second one 龍 means “dragon” But the Pokémon’s actual name is written in the alphabetical syllabary known as katakana デンリュー so there’s no correct answer to which one it means (dragon or current). It could’ve just meant “current” when they first made the Pokémon and added the pun later... Does that things up?
I always thought Alolan Persian looked like one of the designers said "you know, i really like Garfield. Why don't we have a Pokemon that looks like Garfield?"
@@halyoalex8942 Yeah if Psychic didn't already take a spot. It's not like it does anything in lore that's evil or underhanded either. Then again, I guess neither does Absol but everyone thinks he does, unlike Mr. Mime.
Folklore fae are NOT good and are NOT nice. There’s very little difference between the concept of European Fae and some Japanese Yokai-the differences literally being region. Fairy for Fae, Dark or Ghost for Yokai. So for pokemon since many of the fairy types are Definitely Fae vs Cutesy Good Fairies? Coloration. That makes Mr. Mime 100% Fairy verses Dark or Ghost (which have existed since gen1 while Fairy has not)
Ampharos’ Japanese name, Denryu can be taken to mean 電流 denryū (electric current) or 電竜 den ryū (electric dragon),During the beta stages of Gold and Silver, Ampharos was originally going to be an Electric/Dragon type. This was later scrapped and came back in the form of Mega Ampharos. There may be a reason that Ampharos has the dragon typing removed in the beta of G&S . It may be because Dragons were OP back then, and electric only has one weakness. Giving it that power boost now really steps up Ampharos’ game in competitive
When I was young, I believed Volbeat evolved into Illumise. Imagine my disappointment when I played Emerald for the first time and found out they were completely separate pokemon
I think the Unova Monkey Pokémon would benifit greatly from a third, final evolution. I know it would take some work, but I think it could save their line.
i think you just catch 2 of unova monkeys becuz you already get a starter pokemon. so why catch all 3 and have and have 2 pokemon of 1 elemement?.they are the best to use on any team tho
@@violetbloomings8074 to be honest one of the reasons i like galarian Mr.mine more then original Mr.mine because his tap dancing animation looks fun (and also his design is much better)

I don't blame you for disliking Aromatisse. Thinking of poorly designed Pokemon like that is the reason why I wouldn't think very highly of the Fairy type in terms of Pokemon designs.
I can understand you Mikey, Xurkitree is literally a bundle of wires. But you have to admit, it hits as hard as a continent. Also, the way it walks and just wiggles its arms is hilarious.
@• Emi or the Bread CEO • and I don't like your opinion liking stupid things I love your opinion in liking stupid things I love them too, it's too hilarious even tho annoying but thats what makes them funny
It’s my favorite ultra beast and favorite electric type as I don’t like a majority of them, but this one hits just right. One of my fondest memories as a kid was one of those wavy tube men. Xurkitree reminds me of it and makes me so happy to see.
honestly Hoopa's design is very creative and it's personality, being mischievous, compliments its design very well. Of course its all opinion based but not liking a Pokemon cause of the movie it's in doesn't make any sense.
Well i dont know about him but i like the movie because when it came out i was vary young and thought the movie was great because there was so many legendary poke.ins fighting. And there was the shiny requaza. But maybe its only me i still thi k the movie was one if my favorite
I personally really love the Sage monkeys, I don’t understand the hate and I love their design, I also adore the “ do no evil speak no evil hear no evil” stuff
13:19 Unova was created as a soft reboot of the main series games and anime. Gamefreak wanted it to feel like a brand new world, so there are no other Pokémon than gen 5 except for post-game. Because of this concept, they wanted to create counterparts to Kanto's Pokémon. Pidove is a pidgeon, like Pidgey. Troh and Sawk are counterparts to Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee and Foongus and Amoonguss are counterparts to Voltorb and Electrode.
Me: clicks on vid thinks he’s comparing stats and helping out on what not to use for your team MandJTV: basically just roasting Pokémon based on their looks the entire vid
I was not interested in Alolan Persian at first either, but it grew on me and also... it can look better. The anime can do it justice and the card art can too, but in general pokemon like this make me laugh because the way fanart of it draws and understands the concept WAY better than the original images.
Aww, I like Mr Mime. I used one on my last playthrough of Fire Red. He was on my team in the hall of champions. Edit : Speaking of Mr. Mime.. I wonder how female Mr. Mime's feel about being called a mister all the time. "IT'S MAAM" Should be their catchphrase! Haha
I personally hate Illumise because in my first Emerald playthrough, they loved spamming Moonlight, which prolonged the fight not only due to healing, but also because it had a REALLY long animation that could last a second and then some on max emulator speedup.
I was so offended when he said xurkitree was his least favorite electric time. I love the wire monster. He is like my top 15. He looks so cool, and has some pretty decent stats.

Hi I’m here to debunk the “it’s japanese name means electric dragon” myth (or rather point out it’s ambiguity) using linguistics!
Alright, so the first reply mentions that the Japanese name means “electric dragon” but it’s actually a pun because it also means “electrical current”.
電流 (denryu) and 電龍 (denryu) are pronounced the same but have different kanji (Chinese characters) the first different one 流 means “flow” and the second one 龍 means “dragon”
But the Pokémon’s actual name is written in the alphabetical syllabary known as katakana デンリュー so there’s no correct answer to which one it means (dragon or current). It could’ve just meant “current” when they first made the Pokémon and added the pun later...
Does that things up?

@@halyoalex8942 Yeah if Psychic didn't already take a spot. It's not like it does anything in lore that's evil or underhanded either. Then again, I guess neither does Absol but everyone thinks he does, unlike Mr. Mime.
@@halyoalex8942 fairy types don’t need to be dark/fairy to be more in line with the fae.
Folklore fae are NOT good and are NOT nice. There’s very little difference between the concept of European Fae and some Japanese Yokai-the differences literally being region. Fairy for Fae, Dark or Ghost for Yokai.
So for pokemon since many of the fairy types are Definitely Fae vs Cutesy Good Fairies? Coloration. That makes Mr. Mime 100% Fairy verses Dark or Ghost (which have existed since gen1 while Fairy has not)

Gigifabulous this needs waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more attention btw *вяανσ*
We stan
Seems legit
Ampharos’ Japanese name, Denryu can be taken to mean 電流 denryū (electric current) or 電竜 den ryū (electric dragon),During the beta stages of Gold and Silver, Ampharos was originally going to be an Electric/Dragon type. This was later scrapped and came back in the form of Mega Ampharos. There may be a reason that Ampharos has the dragon typing removed in the beta of G&S
. It may be because Dragons were OP back then, and electric only has one weakness. Giving it that power boost now really steps up Ampharos’ game in competitive
@@Kiorun no. Its a drag queen.

I think the Unova Monkey Pokémon would benifit greatly from a third, final evolution. I know it would take some work, but I think it could save their line.
Third evos for them might make a confusion with starters
We already have a fire monkey and i dont want a weird ripoff starter
Genuinely rilla boom is what they should have been each one being a different band member or something along those lines
Or it çould just make them worst

It’s my favorite ultra beast and favorite electric type as I don’t like a majority of them, but this one hits just right. One of my fondest memories as a kid was one of those wavy tube men. Xurkitree reminds me of it and makes me so happy to see.
i find it creepy tho
@@jayveeberido3521 LOL WHAT
honestly Hoopa's design is very creative and it's personality, being mischievous, compliments its design very well. Of course its all opinion based but not liking a Pokemon cause of the movie it's in doesn't make any sense.
Well i dont know about him but i like the movie because when it came out i was vary young and thought the movie was great because there was so many legendary poke.ins fighting. And there was the shiny requaza. But maybe its only me i still thi k the movie was one if my favorite
Imagine if they announced that the Unova monkeys were actually the starters. No one would have bought that game. Literally no one.
Yeah, but theres no way they would have ever actually been the starters
People would still play it
And besides Snivy, the game would be only slightly worse. Sorry, Gen 5 had poor starters. Except Snivy.

5:02 oh hey it’s that “are they still furries if their bugs?” that was brought back up in a meme review!
13:19 Unova was created as a soft reboot of the main series games and anime. Gamefreak wanted it to feel like a brand new world, so there are no other Pokémon than gen 5 except for post-game. Because of this concept, they wanted to create counterparts to Kanto's Pokémon. Pidove is a pidgeon, like Pidgey. Troh and Sawk are counterparts to Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee and Foongus and Amoonguss are counterparts to Voltorb and Electrode.
THIS is why people hated Gen 5 (I don’t) But IMO gen 1 “pokeball with eyes” is wayyyy less creative than “mushroom that resembles a pokeball”
amogus hahaaa funny word
"Amoongus"
He knows this. He made a video on it.
@@djdee6386 I think voltorb is an extremely creative design premise since it’s supposed to be Pokémon’s take on a mimic.

@@DToTheB Pugs are not cute, they look disgusting.
I was not interested in Alolan Persian at first either, but it grew on me and also... it can look better. The anime can do it justice and the card art can too, but in general pokemon like this make me laugh because the way fanart of it draws and understands the concept WAY better than the original images.
What I learned from this video MandJTV really hates the later gens, but mainly... Alolan Region
It's many of the Alolan Forms and ultra beasts that he dislikes, not the later gens as a whole.

I personally hate Illumise because in my first Emerald playthrough, they loved spamming Moonlight, which prolonged the fight not only due to healing, but also because it had a REALLY long animation that could last a second and then some on max emulator speedup.
I have suffered from both it and Volbeat in X and Y's route right next to Parfum Palace.
I was so offended when he said xurkitree was his least favorite electric time. I love the wire monster. He is like my top 15. He looks so cool, and has some pretty decent stats.

I feel like the ultra beasts grow on you when you stop thinking of them as Pokemon. They're aliens, and supposed to look weird.
