      @taylorhillard4868 4 года назад

      I'm glad they didn't make a parallel since there isn't really a need. in the oddish line the evolution is being parasitized by the rafleesia. Gloom is an infected oddish, much like paras. Vileplume is the final stage where the rafleesia parasite took over, in the same way that parasect is the mushroom that took over the paras host. The bellossom branch evolution makes sense since it is a gloom that evolved after overcoming the rafleesia parasite, thus becoming the 'true' final evolution of oddish.

    That third Bellsprout evolution is actually called Tsubomitto, and evolved using a Poison Stone, an item that ended up being cut from the final game. It was supposed to be a branch evolution, similar to Bellossom being a branch evolution for Oddish.
    Follow up fact: The internal data for Gold and Silver show that Sprout Tower has a bunch of unused floors (it was supposed to be 9 stories tall, rather than just 3), and people have speculated that Tsubomitto was supposed to play a prominent role in this expanded Sprout Tower.

      I think they originally evolved with the moss/ice rock because it would explain why eevee couldn't evolve into leafeon in gen 3 and before even though the leaf stone existed during that time, because there were never any moss rocks at those times. Most, if not all other pokemon that were given evolutions in a future generation also have this feature.
      For example, tangela and piloswine require knowing ancient power to evolve, and they only learn that move in gen 4 and onwards. Gligar and sneasel, among others, only evolved with items that didn't exist in gen 2 or 3. Magneton and nosepass similarly evolved in areas with a high electric current that didn't exist in gen 3 or before.
      Glaceon was a bit different because the ice stone didn't exist until gen 7.

    The naming gets weirder when you consider Blue and Green are reversed; in Japanese he's Green and she's Blue which is reflected in some redesigns.

    Actually, before Gen 8, to evolve Eevee into Leafeon, you would need to level it up near a moss rock, this was a bit tedious, but they changed it to evolve it via leaf stone instead. This is also true to how you evolve Eevee into Glaceon, requiring a ice stone to evolve rather than leveling up near an ice rock.

    9:20 Interestingly enough, Dawn's Adventures counterpart, Platinum, won a Pokémon Super Contest in Coolness segment with her Prinplup (although it is just in Normal Rank)
    10:30 This is actually explained in a different canon. In the Adventures manga, Professor Rowan specifically requested the Pokétch Co. President for three different colored Pokètch (red, blue, and orange) so that Platinum and her bodyguards won't mix their Pokétch up

    I would love to hear a technical explanation of how the quote en quote Omni-type Pokémon is weak to Rock, that just fascinates me.

    the characters and starters in the manga is quite easy to remember, Red (fire type) > Venusaur, Blue (water type) > Charizard, and Green (grass type) > Blastoise. With Green and Blue swapping their names, it gets messy from there.

      How? I mean it's just the starter type matchups, but instead of types it's with names and the starter they chose.
