Best part about Tinkaton is that, apparently, they are the reason as to why there is no Flying Taxi in Paldea. They use their hammers to launch random rocks to haunt Corviknight
To make you love Tinkaton even more, it's Corviknight's natural predator because it loves launching rocks into the sky at specifically Corviknight and that's why Corviknight isn't the taxi service in this game
19:25 this can be very easily explained. People decided to make poke balls based on the pattern on amoongus, but it couldn’t be perfect at first. As technology improved, they matched the pattern more.
Espathra is a combination of ESP for it's psychic type and ATHRA which is derived from Cleopatra, which is why the aesthetic on the bird is very Egyptian. Also, yes, the paradox Salamence is indeed a reference to Mega Salamence as one of its Dex entries mentions that it is related to a phenomenon from a certain region.
The Gardevoir/Gallade, Tyranitar and Volcarona are the only future Pokémon I really like. I love Koraidon and the Salamence past form. And prefer the rest of the past forms to the future. But my favourite design is Clodsire lol
I thought it started with Ra because in Egyptian mythology a beetle rolls the sun across the sky, and beetles symbolize the sun god Ra ... I really other thought that one
@@cadenschacht5660 Right? I wouldn't be surprised if a majority of them were a result of drinking game bets, and that one of the bets was that the game would still sell from its title alone.
@@cadenschacht5660 Usually I roll my eyes when I see those comments for new pokemon games, because people have to get used to it, but my god, I really think that this generation has the most worst designs and Pokemon so far, I don't even know what it is, but they don't even look like pokemon, the flamingo is just a flamingo with bad stats and then there are 2 other birds, that also look meh and have really bad stats and nothing special
I honestly don’t think most of them are that bad. I’m just happy we have a new generation with more than 100 pokemon, like I just think the design team got lazy lol, ik they didn’t really but shits whack when you get a gen with 37 new pokemon
Iron valiant is by far my favourite. I already loved both gardevoir and gallade, so a fusion that gets 2 laser sword arms is already one of my new favourites of all time
I really love how Roaring Moon looks to be a design fusion of Salamence and Lunala, and Iron Valiant a fusion of Gardevoir and Gallade. Super cool designs! Thanks for the awesome vid, Austin!
Both seem to take a lot of inspiration from their mega evolutions. I actually wouldn’t mind that if they’re never gonna go back to Megas. Just re-incorporate their design elements into new forms
It makes sense for them to resemble their Mega Evolutions, since Megas were technically their ancient forms, so the past forms should be close to that.
Fun fact about flamingos: When parents feed their chicks something known as crop milk, they start to loose their color and become a really pale pink or even white. They eventually get it back when the baby’s grow up and become independent. That’s why its shiny is more pale, which frankly i think is neat. Love fun little details like that.
Dundunsparce is probably the goofiest thing I have seen in Pokémon in a long time. I remember back when Sun and Moon was coming out and people thought Drampa was going to be Dunsparce’s evolution.
I think its actually a meta-reference to an old pokemon meme where we constantly joked that certain pokemon like Dunsparce were going to evolve into a larger Dunsparce. Kudos to Game Freak if that's the case.
For anyone wondering which ones were unused they are: Fire/Grass (Scovillain) Electric/Fighting (Pawmot) Fighting/Fairy (Iron Valiant) Normal/Poison (Grafaiai) Steel/Poison (Revavroom)
i normally dont watch the animes ( x and y was so good tho, fav region) but with all these cool new mon, I am probably going to watch this one. i feel like flamigo is bland. its just a flamingo with a nkot on the base of its neck.
Austin: “Here we have Ting-Lu, who is dark and ground Here we have Chi-Yu… who’s a 𝘎𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘧𝘪𝘴𝘩… and i love him” I honestly love to see how expressive Austin can be in his videos
Austin I just want to thank you for your dedication to informing us and how you take so much time making sure anyone who doesn’t want to see a spoiler doesn’t see one. I really appreciate you. Thank you
I actually like spoilers. I don't really like surprises and enjoy preparing myself for my playthrough ^^ your videos are always so helpful! Don't forget to sleep ;)
@@Hi-fd4cw Modern China still has a lot of areas in cities that haven't really modernized aesthetically along side an actual ancient site that they use as a giant city size movie set for their period shows. A Chinese pokemon game could easily have both modern and ancient cities.
Now I'll add China to my list of places I want a region based off of: 1) Argentina (Where I live) 2) India (It would be really cool) 3) China 4) Atlantis (Not sure how, maybe a spin off, maybe an alternate universe, where we explore Ultra beasts original universes more in depth or something, and one is under water)
It's really nice hearing someone actually enjoying the new designs. I actually don't really enjoy the last like few gen designs but it definitely helped hearing some positivity for them lol.
The design quality is very inconsistent You have banger designs like Kingambit, Annihilape, and some of the paradox forms and then you have mid-mediocre designs like Spidops, Garganacl, and Kilowattrel
Personally of the 3 most recent gens, I've found gen 7 to have the best designs. But I do like a good bunch of the new Pokemon this generation. Like dachsbun I have a feeling is gonna become one of my favorite pokemon if I use it, which I probably will.
@@mr.punisher5100 Kilowattrel is pretty cool, since it's based on a real bird species that dive bombs into the ocean to catch fish. But yeah, I wish it had another evolution.
A fun note I love about Dachsbun--its ability is literally just called "well baked bread." If a fire type move hits it, it doesn't take any damage and it's defense just goes up. That, and it's cry is just a bark. It's adorable and I love it and I love that I can have a whole team of dogs in this game between the 3 new dogs and the ability to get growlithe and rockruff
Really nice video. One thing I’d say: I don’t think is right nor healthy for anyone to mix “masculinity” with liking or not pink/fairies. Kids might look at this and already feel guilty if they meet the idea that only when something looks badass and holds a hammer it’s ok to like a color. Peace and love friend. ✌🏻
Tinkaton's design was so good, I thought it was the Mew equivalent of the region but with an evolution line like Cosmog, but no I guess it's just a regular Pokemon family! Neat, that means I can get it earlier than I thought I would.
My theory on the whole “Why does amoogus look like a modern poke ball” is that the Pokémon scientists probably inspired the design of the pokeball based on amoogus
@@DabroodThompson beacuse usually red= danger in nature. With the white being used to give the resemblance to an eye with spherical shape and 'pupil' in the middle (like how butterflies have eye patterns on their wings). The pattern isn't designed to get trainers closer, it's to scare things off with the bright colour red.
Do you have a starter that isn’t fuecoco? If so can you please trade me one of them? I don’t have good Pokémon to offer so I hope that doesn’t really matter. Pls let me know.
Just gonna note- Rellor descrambles to be called "Roller" And Rabsca descrambles into- "Scarab" So a similar naming style to Ekans and Arbok. Neato details hidden in plain sight.
Wow, you can really tell the artists at Gamefreak put their entire heart and souls into each of the Tauros forms! I almost forgot I was looking at an already existing Pokémon because all the forms look so utterly alien when compared! But really Gamefreak blueballed anyone that was excited about any of the new Tauros forms. The only thing they could've done to make the designs worse would be to make them robots with LED eyes!
Ceruledge, the Iron Valiant, the primal Salamance, and the new pseudo-legendary dragon all have me excited. I've been hoping for something for vespiquen for a long time and it looks like I'll be waiting even longer. I would love for a better typing like fairy or steel (personally hoping for a bug/fairy)
So many new dog Pokemon! Also, there are a lot of dark, ghost, fighting, flying, and electric types added to this gen. Sure, there are other types added (like a good amount of water, poison, and grass,) but electric and ghost are pretty rare typings.
I'm so glad you did this so we could enjoy the game without being spoiled, but also get a view of who we're going to want on our squad during our playthroughs
Genuinely LOVE most of these. The continued forms for previous Pokémon are all really solid aesthetically. And I think the Pokémon they used for dolphins, ostriches, and flamingos look great as introductions to those species.
Honestly, these are my favorite Pokémon designs since Gen 5. Legendaries are sick, sub legends are sick, new type combos, paradox Pokémon are insane, and armorougue and ceruledge.🔥
Scarabs are indeed Egyptian, and Rabsca is specifically a reference to Khepri, the Egyptian god of the sun who was said to roll up a new fireball every day and carry it across the sky.
Wow the box looks so cool :o On another note, as much as I appreciate all the work you put in for your videos, please don't sacrifice your health for it! 🥺
My new favourite Pokémon is Tarountula hands down, they're so cute and round and the shiny is a lovely combo of black and red, which goes splendidly with the Luxury ball (best ball in the game i do not take criticism)💚 close seconds are Espathra and Arboliva, whose shiny forms i also love and can't wait to hunt starting tomorrow ^^
I think that the best part about of Kingambit's existence has nothing to do with it, but rather about Bisharp...it's now a Eviolite Mon! That said, it lacks any form of regen outside of rest (as far as I can remember...maybe it has drain punch?), but it now has insane bulk on top of it's high attack and quite op typing.
I really like this format you have going. I was really worried about seeing Pokemon spoilers, especially because of events out of my control which is make me wait at least another week before I can play these games. However, with these videos I've been able to see and hear a little bit about all the different Pokemon without being spoiled on the story at all which is very important to me as I really want to experience the story for myself but just seeing the Pokemon like this in game now that the game is out just helps to peak my interest for next week.
So interesting how different backgrounds change a lot how you see things. For me, the Garganacl line is just a Mexican pyramid and the "acl" in the name is a reference to Nahuatl and Nahualtl words (the language of the aztecs and still spoken by many Mexicans). I would've never thought about Na and Cl. And the Espathra just looks like Cleopatra to me. I loooove most of the designs and the concepts of this game sound so interesting. Considering I don't have a Nintendo Switch, I'll be sad here, but I'll have fun watching the videos!!
I immediately caught on to the NaCl thing, since I once made a dnd character having it in their name as a joke, and also the fact that they’re made of salt
I actually really like Greavards evolution! Definitely going on my team! Bread dog probably will as well. The first thing imma do when I get breeding is try to get a shiny rockruff for the rest of the playthrough as well
I finally have a favorite gen. Literally every single Pokémon this generation has been a massive win for me. This is definitely the weird and boundary-pushing generation that I've been waiting for. Somehow, each mon seems to cater to my specific tastes. There will truly never be a better generation in my eyes 🤩
I believe Capsakid may be named after Capsicum, what bell peppers are called in Spain, but in English is the genus of plant they belong too. It is also what we call Bell Peppers in Australia.
Can you at least tell me if its something I have to know to do in advance or if it will just happen normally? I mean, not spoiling becomes kinda pointless if It turns out I have no knowledge on how to make it evolve.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 Spoilers ahead: You must get it at level 25 at least and then it will evolve at random (by random I mean: the babies will appear. There's no evolution scream, it will simply happen, it being at the box or your team)
Lots of respect man! I wish more RUclipsrs had your style . Not bombarding people with the constant subscribe and click this and click that. Such a breathe of fresh air . Your attitude is superb . You have a likable personality because your genuine and you know what your audience wants without the bs. And your voice is pleasant which goes a long long way. I’ll keep watching your videos for years . Thanks for the content .
I'm with you on Tinkaton. I'm hyper-masculine and have very little respect for the Fairy type. They designed it specifically to address the fact that Dragon only has two weaknesses, but haven't addressed Electric only having one (or none if they Levitate). They're sweet, they're squishy... But I HAD to have a Tinkaton, and I named her Solus Prime.
Rellor and rabsca are anagrams for roller and scarab. So you being reminded of a scarab makes a lot of sense. Rellor is a straight reversal and rabsca is just the word cut in half and rearranged.
Minor note - Legends Arceus was probably no more than like 150-250 years in the past. Also, looking at the dex entries for the paradox mons, they don't appear to actually be from the past/future, but from something else entirely.
This video is really helping me prepare for what Pokémon I want on my team. For Scarlet I’m going with a pacifist team and for Violet I’m going with the rebels team.
As a steel type trainer this game makes me extremely happy with my steel type choices. Specially getting another fairy steel. Tinkaton is my favorite aswell
I’m confused on the pseudo legendary Pokémon’s here since they seem to be heavily influenced by Chinese myth yet this game takes place in a Spain inspired region. They did a great job with sun and moon for their design ideas and drop the ball here.
Hey austin just a little question: do you need to trade for the starters or can you get them in the wild? And do you need both paradox types (future or past) to complete the dex?
9:08 : "I reminds me of a scarab" *the Pokemons name is an anagram of Scarab" 11:34 : "I don't know why it's pink"...they switched the color of the nose and body. I don't blame him because he's sleep deprived I just find it funny
Scarlet is the first Pokemon game that has all my favorite versions (of Pokemon, as well as the Pokemon themselves) in one game, and I could not be happier.
Really disappointed in this entire dex. Starters were really disappointing! I see why they didn't want to reveal them. I think I am going to pass on this gen. The best part of this all for me was watching you Austin! How you broke stuff down but also didn't spoil anything. Gave time about spoilers! Your jokes and dunsparce jokes, lol everything! Keep up the great work and I'll continue to support the channel!
About shiny Flamigo: it's based on a fact that true Flamingo colors comes from its diet, being little crustaceans and if it doesn't eat a lot of them or they are unhealthy I think the birds doesn't get its pink color.
@@louisgrissman4857 Well the point is that I love its design regardless. The Queen or Princess thing is not really all that important . But yeah your right
Fun fact: The black stuff on Sandy Shocks is most likely Ferrofluid! It's a magnetic fluid that forms these cool spikes when close to a magnet, you should look it up it's really fascinating to watch!
I think the wierd thing about brute bonnet is that it was befor this time but after the legends game so that must be way far in the past but we don’t know when the poke balls we use today were made
For Rabsca, "scarab" beetles do exist, but its not one specific species. It's the family Scarabaeidae, and dung beetles are within this family. So... Rabsca is definitely based on Scarabaeidae AND Egyptian scarab artifacts!

Best part about Tinkaton is that, apparently, they are the reason as to why there is no Flying Taxi in Paldea. They use their hammers to launch random rocks to haunt Corviknight
Corviknights dex entry basically implies that it’s scared to fly because of predators too lol. What a menace
What a Chad

Love that damn line
Literally my fave gen 9 mon. I’m basic ok
To make you love Tinkaton even more, it's Corviknight's natural predator because it loves launching rocks into the sky at specifically Corviknight and that's why Corviknight isn't the taxi service in this game
Lol that’s amazing
thats really amazing... a small vicious one
I love her even more now
That’s called a lazy excuse to change the fly mechanic you consumer zombies 😊
@@Yorkshire42069 Do you really care that much if Corviknight is the fast travel Pokémon?
19:25 this can be very easily explained. People decided to make poke balls based on the pattern on amoongus, but it couldn’t be perfect at first. As technology improved, they matched the pattern more.
yeah, thats what I was going to say
But this wouldn’t explain amoongus being evolved to camouflage itself
@@Drooh the pattern is completely random they aren’t even camouflaging either they lure other Pokémon I’m with dancing
Really like how Tyranitar is loosely based off Godzilla, and the new Iron Thorns is a nod to Mecha-Godzilla
baxcalibur also has godzilla-like features, with the dorsal fin on the back
Espathra is a combination of ESP for it's psychic type and ATHRA which is derived from Cleopatra, which is why the aesthetic on the bird is very Egyptian.
Also, yes, the paradox Salamence is indeed a reference to Mega Salamence as one of its Dex entries mentions that it is related to a phenomenon from a certain region.
So, SV is in the Mega continuity?
That was my first thought about that Salamence, that it looked like Mega Salamence. Glad to know it's not just me.
Iron Valiant takes the win for me!
100% agree it's possibly my fav Pokémon of the gen
I also think it seems like the best paradox form.
The Gardevoir/Gallade, Tyranitar and Volcarona are the only future Pokémon I really like. I love Koraidon and the Salamence past form. And prefer the rest of the past forms to the future.
But my favourite design is Clodsire lol
That’s why I’m picking violet
Omg hi Caleb. Love your videos you have made me loss 50lbs
Austin not realizing that Rabsca is just the word "scarab" with the syllables swapped made my day. Fantastic info as always
I was looking for this comment 😄

Bruh yessss. Ghost AND Fighting is a sick combo!

Honestly, these are my favorite Pokémon designs since Gen 5. Legendaries are sick, sub legends are sick, new type combos, paradox Pokémon are insane, and armorougue and ceruledge.🔥
doing gen 6 dirty, eh? fr though, I agree, expert since gen 6, expept for flamigo. so bland
@@azgaming9291 almost said gen 6 instead of 5 lol!
@@AgapeGaming17 idk about you, but gen 6 is the best region. greninja is my favorite pokemon, mega evolution is the best, and the anime was great
Not gonna lie, Tinkaton is appearing to be my favorite from this gen. Can't wait to start playing it tonight.
Team Violet, who’s with me? Gimme the robots
Yea me I mostly want salamence
Team Scarlet, who's with me? Gimme the ancients
I got Violet. But seems like majority is with Scarlet.
I got violet 😎
Dragapult is my favorite sudo legend pokemon so violet is mine but also love purple
originally i wasnt a big fan of the future forms but now that i get a better look at the design they actually look rlly good
Scarabs are indeed Egyptian, and Rabsca is specifically a reference to Khepri, the Egyptian god of the sun who was said to roll up a new fireball every day and carry it across the sky.
I thought rabsca was just an anagram for scarab...sortaa like how rellor is just roller backwards since he is a dung beetle that rolls things.
Thank you for all you do for not spoiling this but still being helpful
Wow the box looks so cool :o On another note, as much as I appreciate all the work you put in for your videos, please don't sacrifice your health for it! 🥺
i dont wan't spoilers just yet but dropping in to support austin
looking forward to all the great quality videos coming soon
Make sure you let the video run to help the algorithm
lol same! I'm just listening to it
My new favourite Pokémon is Tarountula hands down, they're so cute and round and the shiny is a lovely combo of black and red, which goes splendidly with the Luxury ball (best ball in the game i do not take criticism)💚 close seconds are Espathra and Arboliva, whose shiny forms i also love and can't wait to hunt starting tomorrow ^^
I agree, those little guys are INSANELY cute!!
Flashback to when I received a Frigibax during a Surprise trade and didn’t know what it was
I think that the best part about of Kingambit's existence has nothing to do with it, but rather about Bisharp...it's now a Eviolite Mon! That said, it lacks any form of regen outside of rest (as far as I can remember...maybe it has drain punch?), but it now has insane bulk on top of it's high attack and quite op typing.
6 more hours to go.
Thanks for keeping us in the loop Austin.
11 hours more to go
@@designtech7805 for real where is they at lol
Can’t wait to add Roaring Moon to my team, this game is gonna be a blast.
I really like this format you have going. I was really worried about seeing Pokemon spoilers, especially because of events out of my control which is make me wait at least another week before I can play these games. However, with these videos I've been able to see and hear a little bit about all the different Pokemon without being spoiled on the story at all which is very important to me as I really want to experience the story for myself but just seeing the Pokemon like this in game now that the game is out just helps to peak my interest for next week.
Sandy Shocks' hair things look a lot like ferrofluid
So interesting how different backgrounds change a lot how you see things. For me, the Garganacl line is just a Mexican pyramid and the "acl" in the name is a reference to Nahuatl and Nahualtl words (the language of the aztecs and still spoken by many Mexicans). I would've never thought about Na and Cl. And the Espathra just looks like Cleopatra to me. I loooove most of the designs and the concepts of this game sound so interesting. Considering I don't have a Nintendo Switch, I'll be sad here, but I'll have fun watching the videos!!
I immediately caught on to the NaCl thing, since I once made a dnd character having it in their name as a joke, and also the fact that they’re made of salt
I actually really like Greavards evolution! Definitely going on my team! Bread dog probably will as well. The first thing imma do when I get breeding is try to get a shiny rockruff for the rest of the playthrough as well
I can’t explain how happy I am about the flamingo and snow leopard Pokémon’s 😭💜
Good to see Flamigo love. So far it seemed almost universally hated, which is ironic sad because it has friend in its name.
@@tonybrewer7536 tbh its just a flamingo
@@uzumakimadeit It's pretty, and it's strong. Fighting/flying type - part of my Scarlet team all the way through.
I finally have a favorite gen. Literally every single Pokémon this generation has been a massive win for me. This is definitely the weird and boundary-pushing generation that I've been waiting for. Somehow, each mon seems to cater to my specific tastes. There will truly never be a better generation in my eyes 🤩
12:10 🤣 you earned a sub with that joke
I believe Capsakid may be named after Capsicum, what bell peppers are called in Spain, but in English is the genus of plant they belong too. It is also what we call Bell Peppers in Australia.
My favourite part of Maushold is their evolution way. I won't spoil but is so fitting with the theme 😂 GF innovated so much this generation
Can you at least tell me if its something I have to know to do in advance or if it will just happen normally? I mean, not spoiling becomes kinda pointless if It turns out I have no knowledge on how to make it evolve.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 Spoilers ahead:
You must get it at level 25 at least and then it will evolve at random (by random I mean: the babies will appear. There's no evolution scream, it will simply happen, it being at the box or your team)
@@jonathangoodwin5609 It's like evolving nincada into Ninjask and Shedinja randomly appears. It's a random evolution that doesn't have it's own screen
Lots of respect man! I wish more RUclipsrs had your style . Not bombarding people with the constant subscribe and click this and click that. Such a breathe of fresh air . Your attitude is superb . You have a likable personality because your genuine and you know what your audience wants without the bs. And your voice is pleasant which goes a long long way. I’ll keep watching your videos for years . Thanks for the content .
I'm with you on Tinkaton. I'm hyper-masculine and have very little respect for the Fairy type. They designed it specifically to address the fact that Dragon only has two weaknesses, but haven't addressed Electric only having one (or none if they Levitate). They're sweet, they're squishy...
But I HAD to have a Tinkaton, and I named her Solus Prime.
Rellor and rabsca are anagrams for roller and scarab. So you being reminded of a scarab makes a lot of sense. Rellor is a straight reversal and rabsca is just the word cut in half and rearranged.
Minor note - Legends Arceus was probably no more than like 150-250 years in the past. Also, looking at the dex entries for the paradox mons, they don't appear to actually be from the past/future, but from something else entirely.
This video is really helping me prepare for what Pokémon I want on my team. For Scarlet I’m going with a pacifist team and for Violet I’m going with the rebels team.
As a steel type trainer this game makes me extremely happy with my steel type choices. Specially getting another fairy steel. Tinkaton is my favorite aswell
Same. Tinkaton will definitely be part of my team.
@@madisonm1310 thats awesome, I used it in my playthrough and gigaton hammer is one of my new favorite moves in the series
Can't wait for Tinkaton 😁 after the leaks, I told myself I'm gonna get that pokemon it reminds me of Mawile 😍
“Kinda reminds me of a Scarab”
It’s name is rabSca. Jumbled up Scarab
"It has jaundice in the eyes, idk why....looks cool though" 🤣...I love you @Austin John Plays
I'd love to see you do a video on like your full opinion on all of them now that the game's been out for a bit :)
Now I really can’t wait to play the game and see all these amazing Pokémon myself!
This is easily my favorite lineup of new Pokémon in at least a decade. I'm so stoked!
Rabsca, if you move the last three letters to the front, is scarab, and rellor is roller backwards.
I’m confused on the pseudo legendary Pokémon’s here since they seem to be heavily influenced by Chinese myth yet this game takes place in a Spain inspired region. They did a great job with sun and moon for their design ideas and drop the ball here.
Hey austin just a little question: do you need to trade for the starters or can you get them in the wild? And do you need both paradox types (future or past) to complete the dex?
you have to trade for starters, and yes you need both box legendaries. You can find an extra in post-game
All right thank you so much
I'm so excited for this game. It has so many of my favorite pokemon including my baby garchomp! Love how many dragon pokemon they have this time too
Austin John Plays handles spoilers so well, the videos are organized perfectly
22:55 - IT LOOKS LIKE A GOLDEN CHEESE STRING OR A GOLDEN INFLATABLE WAVY MAN XD
9:08 : "I reminds me of a scarab" *the Pokemons name is an anagram of Scarab"
11:34 : "I don't know why it's pink"...they switched the color of the nose and body.
I don't blame him because he's sleep deprived I just find it funny
I gotta say I’m kinda surprised. I’m liking the vast majority of the new entries. They did a really good job this time.
Scarlet is the first Pokemon game that has all my favorite versions (of Pokemon, as well as the Pokemon themselves) in one game, and I could not be happier.
Really disappointed in this entire dex. Starters were really disappointing! I see why they didn't want to reveal them. I think I am going to pass on this gen. The best part of this all for me was watching you Austin! How you broke stuff down but also didn't spoil anything. Gave time about spoilers! Your jokes and dunsparce jokes, lol everything! Keep up the great work and I'll continue to support the channel!
They fr just saw a flamingo and were like “its perfect”
About shiny Flamigo: it's based on a fact that true Flamingo colors comes from its diet,
being little crustaceans and if it doesn't eat a lot of them or they are unhealthy I think
the birds doesn't get its pink color.
this region has amazing designs from early game to endgame. Simply blown away, like shout out to the artists for making some beautiful mons
Always good to see comments like yours. Others just like to call them ugly
Ceruledge and Tinkaton are awesome, definitely adding those to my team.
already have their pre-evolutions in mine
Flittle is so cute❤ I love that it’s a little egg that evolves into a ostrich princess ❤
Princess? Its based off cleopatra, an egyptian queen
@@louisgrissman4857 Well the point is that I love its design regardless. The Queen or Princess thing is not really all that important . But yeah your right
It looks like "Rabsca" is the anagram for "Scarab" as you struggled to think of "that Egypt thing.." 😂
Fun fact: The black stuff on Sandy Shocks is most likely Ferrofluid! It's a magnetic fluid that forms these cool spikes when close to a magnet, you should look it up it's really fascinating to watch!
I feel they did an amazing job with the pokemon designs this generation. Almost all of them look very good and are fun and original too.
These Pokémon look so great. The new wooper line and the mouse family will 100% be on my team
Austin never fails to amaze me he is easily my favourite RUclipsr and is such a humble man and if you see this Austin I hope you have a good day
I think the wierd thing about brute bonnet is that it was befor this time but after the legends game so that must be way far in the past but we don’t know when the poke balls we use today were made
For Rabsca, "scarab" beetles do exist, but its not one specific species. It's the family Scarabaeidae, and dung beetles are within this family. So... Rabsca is definitely based on Scarabaeidae AND Egyptian scarab artifacts!
