People focus on the word 'ghost' too much. Ghost types are just spiritual entities. Like how rock types are often mineral based life. SOME ghost types are dead spirits reincarnated or finding a new form, but that seems more like a case by case rather than 100% represented in a species. Even Spiritomb has been shown now thanks to legends to not even confirmed to be true 'spirits', since thyplosion just makes them too.
There are three types of ghost in the Pokemon world my opinion -ghost powers like Hisuian Typhlosion -reincarnation like Yamask -disembodies souls like all of the ghost girls
Just cuz it's a ghost type it doesn't need to be dead, like as it came *back* to life, but gained the ghost type, which makes sense if you think of it like zombies. Some are held in a more spiritual form, and some are straight up dead like the ghost girls 💀
The diglett one doesnt surpise me. Its one of the simplest designed pokemon.... and it sort of looks like a... well its something that teen boys draw a lot of... so i can see it being the first.
The Gimmighoul one, to me, doesn’t feels like they’ve been planning it’s existence for over 20 years, but it feels like one of the best references we’ve seen in the pokemon universe
Saying they’ve been planning it is definitely a stretch. I wouldn’t even say it’s a reference, just a coincidence. Mr Pokémon’s a scientist, so it’s not unlikely that he’d have a lot of books (just like how most regions have a library that have no relation to Paldea). The coin collection isn’t strange either, coin collectors do exist and aren’t uncommon. Whether it’s collectors various coins from around the world, historic artefacts (eg Roman coins), or just interesting pieces, they aren’t all that strange. The computer is harder to explain, but still isn’t a reference. The game was released in 1999, computers back then were much bigger than modern ones, it can just be chalked up to a big computer he uses to store a lot of data from his research. No offence to Dobbs or GF, but this is far off the mark. He’s looking too far into this and is giving GF too much credit here. It’s fun to speculate, but this is just pulling straws to fill time.
Could probably have a looooot of fun by just leaving a Gimmighoul in the Game Corner and watch it curse Team Rocket out of existence along with half the patrons of their fine, completely legal, establishment.
You know. I was half-expecting Thundurus-I to be the top 1 pokemon who changed the game forever because prankster thunder wave and swagger sets are the very reason why paralysis and confusion hits got nerfed
For years now Ghost type Pokémon have been divided between those with ghostly aspects and ghostly natures. Like, Decidueye clearly isn't a spirit. On the other hand I wouldn't expect to see the ghost of a deceased Haunter. Remember though that non-Pokemon ghosts absolutely appear in the games and anime but only some Ghost type Pokémon are like those. It's kinda like how not all dragons are Dragon type and not all bugs are Bug type. Types make more sense if you think of them like an affinity for flavors of natural energy
Also there are clearly human ghosts in the games. I don't quite remember where they are but one is in X and Y when you enter the second floor of a specific building
Was expecting Thundy I to be on the list since it’s ridiculous success in Gen 6 VGC single-handedly caused the nerfs to Paralysis, Confusion, and Prankster(idk why that was attributed to Cress in the video since it’s not an Ekectric or Dark type)
The existence of foreign countries and foreign coins isn't foreshadowing of Gimmighoul or Paldea. It was just implying that their world is, you know, _a world_ and in fact was closely based on ours (Brazil, America, and India used our real world names for them in old Pokedex entries and character bios).
Everytime people think ghost type pokemon is just dead pokemon/people's reincarnated as a new species, let them know Decidueye exists. (and Hisuian Typhlosion too now)
I mean people have been saying that snorunt evolves by dying for ages. And I've heard the same said about skeledirge. It's pretty clear that ghost pokémon =/= literal ghosts, but good luck convincing people that, it seems the public won't listen.
I’m sure SV was planned from Gen 1. Proof: Red is watching “Stand by Me”, which is about a group of four friends going down the railroad (a linear track) to find a body. The ending of SV has the player and their friends descend into Area Zero, forced to take a linear path, to find the Professor, who is ultimately dead.
Smeargle is to blame for Darkrai's nerf. Every Smeargle in the VGCs would have Dark Void which puts both opponents to sleep. Starting in Gen 7, Dark Void not only had its accuracy dropped to 50%, but Smeargle was no longer able to use it, so most Darkrai sets will have the 60% accurate Hypnosis instead
I think ghost type Pokémon can be split of in two categories we have ghost types and then we have those who have ghost abilities. (That’s just what I think ok so don’t start a war in the reply’s)
I actually accidentally figured out that fire types Pokemon could be burned by tri attack. I wasn't sure why... until this video. I was doing a regular Gold randomizer and I noticed that tri attack kept burning wild magmars while grinding. I adore your content! Keep up the amazing work. Have a great day!!!

It's not that hard to understand ghost types. Imagine a demon, a being who wasn't born, but has the abilities of a ghost. There are other entities who aren't born or who don't have a physical body to to speak of, that I couldn't given as example, but I'm thinking demons are the most known ones
There's a reason the genie Hoopa is a Ghost type. Fairies kinda blur the lines on what Ghost type means, but both of them kinda blend with aspects of Dark and Psychic too. Dark also blurs with Fighting and Normal, where it's extremely minor points that distinguish any of those three on a move by move and creature by creature basis.
Ahhhhhhh Thank you for the ditto inclusion!!! This is that one fact I tell everyone all the time because I have to explain why I don't like Ditto Face merch shockingly more than I ever thought I would need to.
My schoolmates were using my laptop for a project and they opened RUclips. And the first thing that popped up is this with its amazing thumbnail. I guess i wont make friends in this new school 😭😭😭
I'm surprised you missed Mega Rayquaza forcing Smogon to invent a completely new tier for the things too overpowered for the overpowered tier or the fact that the literal "anything goes" tier still has restrictions in it specifically because of Slowbro
So Heatran essentially ended the "one-shot by earthquake" curse? Where that was one of, if not the, most common moves and if you were weak to it were probably not being used?
just like not all Dragon-type are actual dragons (Exeggutor is a tree, Altaria is a bird, Kingdra and Dragalge is a seahorse and so on), not all Ghost-type are actual undeads. Some Ghost-type could be Ghost-type just for abilities, powers or something else. Alolan Marowak is alive, but is Ghost-type because his bone is haunted by the ghost of his mother or another parent. Oricorio Sensu is Ghost-type because with his dance can summon ghosts, Decidueye is Ghost-type because can cast curses with his feathers-arrows, Frillish line is Ghost-type because feed on life energy like a ton of Ghosts, and so on. Mimikyu is similar. There is nothing that suggest Mimikyu is an actual ghost, but just a creature with abilities that match the type, since his ispiration came from eldritch monsters, who are so horrifing that if you look at them you go mad or die, support Mimikyu isn't a ghost at all, so make sense to exist the ghost of a Mimikyu, because Mimikyu isn't an actual ghost in the first place.
11:35 What if, and go with me on this one the Amulet Coin is actually a Gimmighoul Coin, but renamed due to it being as a pendant? 13:30 you mean FIRE Red not Omega Red!
Even if you Missed the Berry Patch Update for Rbuy and Sapphire or Dont have the Gamecube Games, FireRed and LeafGreen can Actually put this Patch into your Ruby and Sapphire if you have 2 GBA and a Link Cable
Dude I bought Pokémon ranger guardian signs today and just as I was about to put it in my day to see if it worked ( 2 nd hand game ) you started talking about guarding signs
Wait eruption from heatran can break the rock in the background of a battle why is this the first time I’m hearing of this and why is no one talking about it? 14:43
Doesn't necessarily change everything we know about ghost pokemon the way I've always thought of it is pokemon that mention they used to be something or someone(s) else is that the origin of the species was that plus "infinity" energy which warp the soul/person or item into what can be considered a Pokémon which then obviously breed and spread
The Gimmighoul one os a stretch. The professor has a coin collection, books about pokemon, and a computer, there for it MUST be a reference to Paldea? Coins are very popular collections, There is not a single book on the games that talk about anything other than pokemons, and the main region professor has a big computer.
As much as I would love for Gimmighoul to be foreshadowed, those Gen 2 references are just coincidences. Mr.Pokemon was an American and the coins are a reference to the different currencies. Also, since Unova games came out after these ones, the Pokemon on his screen is most likely reffering to a gen 5 mon (most likely Zoroark IMO). Lastly for the books, it actually has that same dialogue for all the bookcases in the remakes when interacted with, so not much there sadly

Ghost-type pokemon don’t have to be dead, having close connection to spirits and death gives them same abilities as ghosts.

The last entry takes the cake. Don't forget gen 3 also has the torchic butt sprite.
Its more of a marking then a butt since it only appears as a gender difference
