Animals are being replaced and going extinct so only some farmed Animals remain unseen because it's dark and irrelevant to the plot. They are not retconning them out, the later games are taking place when they're more scarce so updated elephant to copperajah because more relatable to kids who never seen one. Some are named after what normal animals they resembled which had to have existed at one point to know they looked like one. They're from ultra space wormholes which is where arceus came from and seeded their world's pokemon from mew and ditto is a failed experiment and so is mewtwo but with human DNA. People breed with pokemon and became super human which is why they can survive impossible things and some have colorful hair. Pokeballs could be altered to catch humans and are designed to not catch other people's pokemon and certain percentages of human DNA without over rides like a snag machine or probably a way for police to apprehend criminals.
smallish headcannon but in pokemon SwSh I headcannon that Bede is jealous of Hop, bc he is close with you/Victor/Gloria. his trainer card mentions he has trouble making friends, and too me this explains why Bede was somewhat nicer to you after the galar mine 2 battle, but kept being mean to Hop lol
My personal headcanon is the reason how Leon became champion was because he always gets lost in the wild areas and thus seems to endlessly fight every wild encounter he came across until he was rescued. This is such a regular occurrence that his Pokemon became strong enough for him to become Champion
Kay here’s a personal one I’m proud of. Pikachu doesn’t wanna evolve into raichu, because in journeys we see that evolving is what caused him to leave the Kangaskhan he was raised by as a Pichu Behind, he didn’t wanna loose ash too!
My headcanon is that N canonically gets Zekrom. Zekrom is the pokemon of ideals, and his idea of a world was definitely his ideal world, Ignoring Ghetsis' plans at least.
glad to see i'm not the only one. It makes perfect sense for the player to have reshiram as well since they are the one who shows N the "truth" of his fathers plans
This makes a lot more sense when you think about him in the movie vs it in the game. The movie shows that he is only vulnerable after giving away fragments of himself to humanity but even then states that these pieces are indestructible. Not to mention, even when vulnerable he is still INSANELY strong to the point that 3 legendaries and the whole of Ash's team / friends couldn't do anything more than slow him down. Meanwhile, in the game you can theoretically KO it with a lone Pikachu. ...There seems to be a slight disparity in the level of power.
I always thought audino was blind and relied on sound, the empty eyes and the emphasis on hearing and ears, plus the name sounding like audio led me to believe this and I still like to think that it’s true
I headcanon that, in games where Pokémon speak, they have accents from whatever language their names are based on. The Deinos line is German, the legendary birds are Spanish, etc.
My headcanon is that Ash is the narrator of the anime and is unreliable, and has grown fond of tall tales in his adult years. It explains Pikachu beating Rock types and such.
From what I could gather, he doesn't bring up bonkers sounding events unless it's actually relevant, sutch as seing HO-OH ON THE FIRST DAY OF BEING A TRAINER
It's basically cannon at this point, but it's basically just that the God like legendaries that aren't cannon species aren't actually captured technically. They could break out and leave at any time they wish, they just think the player has earned their help for a bit. And by a bit, I mean the trainers whole life. After all, one humans lifespan is basically spending an hour at a friend's house to an eternal being.
Was going to say this. I think DPPt almost makes this canon by the fact that Cyrus needed a magical macguffin to control Dialga/Palkia, because a Masterball wouldnt allow him to use their full power.
@@battlesheep2552 Yeah, in fact it is probably not just the god-like legendaries but most legendaries that are that way. Like Latios and Laties probably are not being stingy and are helping us in full but I can't see groudon, celebi or even Ho-oH helping us with all their power. Celebi with their time powers would be untouchable, groudon strength is able to rearrange the landscape at a global level... Ho-oH is capable of creating other lesser legendaries on demand from random pokemon. I think of the legendaries the ones that we see their actual strength have to be more like victiny, meloetta, the 3 kanto birds, the 3 Jhoto dogs, the 3 shino spirits, maybe Mew?(I don't think Mew is supposed to be that powerful, he is legendary because he is like the primordial sea but as a creature), by consequence Mewtwo... TBH rather than the divide between legendaries and mythicals, I rather would like to get legendaries separated into legendaries that we use their full power and legendaries that are just lending us part of their power. It doesn't even have to be for the same reason, like Groudon may actually agree to use their full power if we asked but they can't in a normal pokemon battle because if they used it they would just kill the adversary pokemon, their trainer and even us, so they have to hold back and them holding back to not kill is what we get, holding back is hard. While others like Dialga may actually be able to use more power without it being lethal if they wanted but then it wouldn't be that interesting for them, so they lend us a level of power that they consider fair or fun. Celebi may be lending us most of their power in the form of elemental attacks or physical attacks but is holding back most of their time-based abilities because using them for competitive sport-like battling would just be wrong.
A crazy headcannon of mine is that the reason Porygon Z becomes crazy is because he's the only creature that realizes he's in a video game. That Dubious Disc that makes him evolve is code from the game's cartridge, and since Porygon is a computer Pokemon, he becomes self aware, but realizes he has no power since he isn't a protagonist. Edit: Now looking back at what I said, it sounds like Porygon Z is the Spampton or Jevil of the Pokemon world. Unable to change fate, because fate is in control of the player. Porygon Z is nothing more but some bits of code to help the player in their journey.
@@PatStar-lw2zc idk if being able to oneshot a blissey at +1 is really "good intentions" but hey at least it's not deleting everyone you love over some guy with the personality of a unbaked bean
“Why are here? Just to-“ “Yes we are only here to suffer! That’s what I’ve been trying to NONONO DONT TURN OFF THE GAME YET IM AFRAID OF THE DAR-“ -Kaz & Porygon-Z, PRIMA’s Art of War
Another headcanon but hop is the kind of person that would send you multiple death threats in multiple alt accounts if you said anything bad about his brother
My headcannon is that mystery dungeon takes place in the main universe and if a trainer is experienced enough, they can understand what Pokémon are saying
I remember reading something about how Pokeballs were invented because of one specific Pokemon: Primeape. It was just too dangerous to try to train one without them.
Oh, I know this one! There was a Primeape that got so tired of fighting, it shrunk itself down (a self defense mechanism all Pokemon have) and went inside an old professor's glasses case. This was from an old book from Red and Green, so it's not the FIRST use of Pokeballs, thanks to Legends Arceus, but it's likely it had become a lost art until then, or people realized you didn't need a specialized handmade apricorn ball, but any case would do, which lead to Pokeball factories using this, combined with a connection to Bill's (and later other computer geniuses) Pokemon storage system, to make a profit.
@@gluttonousgoddesso add on to that, every pokeball is equipped with a tranquilliser gas, which activates this capability of pokemon. The name of the professor was Nishinomori
@@gluttonousgoddess I can link you the Italian video if you want, I’m pretty sure it’s the original Pokédex made when Pokémon was known as “pocket monsters” and the games still weren’t published
I have a headcanon that Pokeballs were the direct result of a program making Pokemon more train-able that started after the First World War, which lines up with the end of WW1 (1918) and the stated invention year (1925). That scientist mucking about with a Primeape? He was a part of that program, and Primeape was chosen due to its proven ferocity; if Primeape can be contained and used on the battlefield, any other Pokemon can, too. It isn’t until the 1950’s however, after they were used to devastating effect by the Japanese during WW2, that they began to see widespread commercial use.
My headcannons are that > Legendaries CAN and WILL procreate, but daycares just don't have the right environment for that > Becaude the environment for their breeding is very rare, for a legendary to actually have sons or daughters only occurs once every a very long time, making it so very few legendaries are out there at a time > Because Legendaries mostly are said or very probable to be incapable of dying from age, that makes it so there are LOTS of legendary pokemons out there, just asleep or hidden.
I mostly agree, especially due to the sheer quantity of the same type of legendaries spread across different regions. However, I think there are some exceptions. The creation trio, the aura trio (I think that's the name anyway. The ones from X and Y), all three parts of the original dragon, the weather trio, the Sword and Shield trio (don't know the proper name), the Ruinous Quartet, Celebi, and, of course, Arceus. I don't think any of them reproduce, due to their importance to their home region or the world as a whole. The creation trio and Arceus are powerful enough to split their essence to create more of them to be in more places at once (hence why trainers can capture them). Xerneas and Yveltal are just reborn if they die, so they don't need to procreate. Zygarde is a combination of the cores and cells and doesn't reproduce, however the cells probably do reproduce, and the cores might. There would be multiple original dragons if it reproduced (since only the one would've split), and constituent parts of a greater whole probably don't have the capability to reproduce. If either Kyogre or Groudon had children, the balance of power between them would be uneven, so Rayquaza intervenes before they get to that point (by severely embarrassing any potential partner of either of them before they can finish their first date, I assume). Eternatus would be an even bigger problem if there were more of them, so there's clearly only one of it. The sword and shield doggos were completely unknown to modern day Galar, and they have phones, so there clearly aren't more elsewhere either, or they would've been found, thus there's probably only one of each. The Ruinous Quartet are physical manifestations produced by actual objects, so there's probably only one of each. There's only one Celebi, but there can be multiple at once because it ran out of room on the timeline, so it started doubling up in the same time period.
I had this idea for this event they should have implemented in BDSP. In it, you are allowed to breed Arceus, but only once. When that happens, the daycare man will say that a celebi came and stole the egg. You can track the celebi to a time portal that leads to the primordial void, where the celebi agrees to become your pokemon as long as you leave the egg there.
Legendaries definitely do have offsprings. I recall seeing Lugia with a child Lugia about the size of a Lapras in a Pokémon episode (or movie) and I know from Bulbapedia that there's at least one episode where multiple Celebi can be seen at a time. Granted, Celebi is a time traveler, so seeing multiple of it at the same time doesn't necessarily mean they're different individuals, but one of them was shiny, which does prove there are at least two. Also, the Phione and Manaphy eggs must come from somewhere...
Since the games confirm that humans evolved/descended from Pokémon, my headcanon is that some people have higher levels of poké DNA than others. It could explain things like why Sada and Iono from S&V have sharp teeth/fangs, why N from B&W can completely understand Pokémon, or why Sabrina from the anime has straight up psychic powers. But I also headcanon that it works the other way: some Pokémon having more 'advanced' DNA making it possible for them to use human speech. Like Team Rocket's Meowth for example, or certain Pokémon from the various movies (Lucario, Zorua, Shaymin, etc)
I AGREE. I even have a few stories where N has out and out psychic abilities like the psychic specialist trainer archetype, they were just really suppressed and restricted to only hearing Pokemon thoughts, but after being freed from Ghetsis his abilities start to (for lack of a better term) "evolve" into full psychic powers. I have a headcanon linked to that that says his ability is inherited (his mother is my usual pick for who he inherited it FROM because Ghetsis sure doesn't have it. Edit: my answer to the N is a Zoroark theory is that he's not; rather, a Zoroark was one of the Pokemon who raised him (he is seen with a Zorua in Evolutions) and he tied his hair back like that to better fit in with the "pack".
One of my favourite headcanons kinda spiralling into a bunch of smaller headcanons and it's all Pokemon Masters fault. -The main headcanon is that Grimley got bored on Pasio so made an underground Poker ring with some of the other strong trainers like Nanu and the triplets. Eventually more trainers stopped by and no one has the nerve to tell Lear about it. This main headcanon spun off smaller headcanons, such as -Emmet got banned from playing Poker because Emmet used to eat the poker chips -Crasher wake has an action figure collection and asks strong trainers (like Blue) if they can hook him up with some rare ones of them -Nanu refuses to do anything about the illegal activities on Pasio despite being a cop because its not his duristiction and he likes the chaos -Sidney doesn't drink much booze because he lost respect for it when he found out that the "Devils Drink" isn't made by the devil -Morty formed a sort of parent like bond with Allister since they share a lot of similarities (Ghost type, gym leader, supernatural, "seeing things" etc) -They try and refuse entry to the younger trainers (like the protags) but one day Silver just walked in and no one batted an eye. It's now where he goes to escape Ethan being overbearing and Morty gawking at his Ho oh I don't know how this became a thing it just did and I live for it
I could see nobody batting an eye at the son of the mafia boss joining a poker ring. Both a source of fun and money, and even if the geezer's retired they've seen the chaos his dad can cause, if any alternate world Giovanni finds out Silver was banned he'd probably throw a fit, assuming either Giovanni or Silver didn't just rat them out. "Yea yea I have ties to a crime lord, but I also have intel on an illegal poker ring."
pokemon masters is honestly really fun headcanon grounds for interactions and stuff so i can't blame you (one of my weirder masters-based ones is some trainers took to racing around Pasio on their Pokemon. mostly legendary ones. Zinnia and Silver started it between Rayquaza and Ho-Oh and the race roster's just expanded over time. some folks join in on the ground (Kris and Suicune, Blaine and Rapidash, Scottie/Bettie and Cobalion, Gladion and Silvally, Marley and Arcanine, etc.) but it's still mostly a sky race. it's kind of terrifying to watch)
Head Canon #1: Ingo and Emmet are mirror twins, Ingo is right-handed while Emmet is left-handed. Head Canon #2: N is not Ghetsis biological son, but both are still relatives. That's how Ghetsis found out about N's existence and his ability to understand with Pokémon. Therefore Ghetsis finding N in the wilderness was not a "random encounter", he actively searched for the latter. Head Canon #3 (potential PLA spoilers): Volo is not Cynthia's ancestor, he is her descendant. Volo traveled back in time to the last time Arceus was mentioned in history books, which happened to be the the time our protagonist landed in Hisui. Ironically Volo created a self-fulfilling proficy. To add more to the theory, I say Volo is Cynthia's son or brother and he is unable to find the 16 plates and Arceus in his original time because the games' protagonist currently owns all of them. Head Canon #4: Entei, Raikou and Suicune were originally Eeveelutions before being resurrected by Ho-Oh. I think this is a pretty common one. Head Canon #5: The bottles in Guzma's room in the Aether Mansion all contain Tapu Cocoa (or Eneco Cocoa, that's the pun in Japanese), canonically his favorite drink. Cute cups just don't fit the tough persona he puts up in front of others.
my N is a zoroark thing that i don't necessarily believe in is that N's appearance and stuff is based off of Ghestis. I've seen people ask who the illusion would be based on if hes a zoroark, but like, he does look pretty similar to Ghetsis, i think. like theres differences, but like, maybe little zorua saw Ghetsis and like, made himself look similar
I always wrote stories where N is explicitly Ghetsis’s kid bc it made no sense that they looked so similar and yet were apparently unrelated. My original theory was that Ghetsis dumped baby N in the woods, possibly leaving a Grunt or a tracker to ensure he grew up safely then came back to "heroically rescue" a kid he already knew was there. It's very much in his wheelhouse given how dramatic he is. Lately though I've been having the idea that N's mother caught wind of Ghetsis’s plan and tried to escape with N, only having time to leave him in the nearby woods Moses-style before Ghetsis caught up with her and killed her.
One of my favorite theories and one that is ABSOLUTELY a HC is the one about the Regi Trio being Nuclear Bomb victims. There's a lot backing it up and its one of the more morbid theories that is actually plausible.
@@basicallyblobbity4226 There's a video on it by channel Goose Boose that goes really in depth into it, Here's a link if you're interested :D - ruclips.net/video/wj1bkM8x3bM/видео.html
I'm sure that a ton of people have similar headcanons, but here are mine anyways. 1) Legendary and mythical Pokémon are immortal and godlike in status, so they actually Choose their trainers and just move on to another chosen partner when they are released or their current partner dies, which is why Pokémon like Arceus and Giratina are catchable in the first place. They choose to be caught. 2) This is almost 100% wishful thinking, but I personally think that each Pokémon game has two timelines: The canon timeline and the player's timeline and in the player's timeline, the player character in each game is actually just the same person moving from region to region for some reason or another, which explains why they are always a prodigy regardless of the game and how the player can have Pokémon from past generations despite them not being native to the current region. 3) N was a Pokémon Mystery Dungeons protagonist or one of the humans sent back from the PMD world in Gates To Infinity, which is why he can speak to Pokémon and understand them so well. I've got a few more headcanons, but I'm tired of typing now.
@@TheRogueRenegade Oh, what an honor! Since you liked them, here's some of the other headcanons I've remembered: 1) Ingo's traveling back into Hisui actually explains every special gimmick the Pokémon franchise has ever introduced through the crazy logistics of matter displacement and physics. 2) The story of Giratina being banished is literally a retelling of the Fall from Grace in the bible, so I also choose to believe that Arceus, Palkia, and Dialga are some kind of commentary on the Holy Trinity. 3) The reason a lot of modern weaponry doesn't seem to show up often in the games is because, and this is kinda dark, Pokémon are so powerful that they are the weapons with which modern war is waged. 4) Mew might actually be the exact opposite of the singular genetic ancestor! Since time travel seems to be possible in the Pokémon universe, Mew might actually be the last Pokémon species to ever exist as the final genetic successor to the Pokémon race as a whole, which is why it can learn almost every move. It just makes sense to me. 5) Like with real animals, there are both feral and domestic breeds of Pokémon, which is why npcs and villain team grunts all seem to have the same kinds of Pokémon while gym leaders, the elite four, villain team leaders, rivals, and the player all tend to have more competitively viable Pokémon. 6) A lot of Pokedex entries about legendary, mythical, or even just particularly rare/dangerous Pokémon are either incorrect or lacking many details. I mean, who'd actually train a Litwick if it literally burned away at your life? Like, there's gotta be conditions to some of these things. I'll probably add more later with an edit, haha.
I have a lot of hc but I'll try to keep it to 5: 1: The trains on the battle subway are run by the Klink line, they use magnetism to move the trains which is why the battle background is cave like to indicate a magnetic field. 2: Diglett cave is actually a giant Onix tunnel made long ago, but since Diglett and Dugtrio live there now people think they dug it out. 3: The Kalos region is part of a bigger unexplored continent, with Kiloude City being a place for Southeastern explorers to come back too. (Dendimelle Town being the Northeastern town for explorers) 4: The volcano on Cinnibar Island was made to erupt during the game, but Missingno is keeping it from erupting until after the Kanto Protagonist completes the game, which is why after you catch Missingno everything is glitched. (Because the protag gets caught up in the Eruption leading too an unfortunate fate. . . ) 5: The Porygon phone in Pokemon Masters is made by Silph Co. while the Rotom phone was introduced through Devon Corp. (Bassically pokemon's version of Apple vs Android)
I dunno if there’s anything contradictory to my hc but I like to think that the reason we don’t see mega evolution is because it was discovered that mega evolution causes Pokémon a lot of pain. So most regions have it banned from being used. :>
Eh, in canon iirc they use the energy differently. There's nothing saying they couldn't have banned using Mega Energy that way, or limited it to safe ones (Pokken allows some Megas, while other ones don't get new Megas, using the energy as super attacks instead). Dynamax, Aeos, Z-moves, Synergy Bursts, it's all variations of the same energy or process of channeling energy. Evolution stones too (in the anime they show that Mega Stones are formed when Evolution Stones are mutated due to focusing Synergy, or Mega Energy, through them; this could also be similar to how Z Crystal's are formed, and may be how the Red and Blue and, in HG/SS, Jade Orbs work, as well as the Meteorite in the Delta Episode. The Dynamax Energy seems to be released by Eternamax, though the method is roughly the same, assuming one cannot use Synergy to Dynamax)
More like the mega stones are the combined souls of all the same species that were sacrificed and once used not only causes the power spike from evolving but also causes the pokemon to react more violently due to all the anger or grudges the souls have
@@bolt_beam same how on earth did they get mew DNA besides now that they have it they can make clones and possible many were failiures and varient failiures and thats how we get the X and Y varients they are unfunctional by themselves but combined with the functioning base mewtwo it now can exist
My personal headcanon is that Red and his rival Blue at some point got married as adults (whether it being a platonic or romantic marriage) and that the trip to Alola was also their honeymoon. Idk, it just makes me happy
I headcanon that Selene (Moon) personality type is ESFP and you could see her walking around Alola talking to literally every single person she meets and she would be that person that would death stare or creep a person out if they talk about a dark secret she has.
That would explain her lifeless smile. Edit: A headcanon of mine is that Ghastly can morph the gases surrounding it into arms. Hence why it can learn moves like Ice Punch.
For the arceus one (spoilers) Arceus gives you a piece of him because you've proved yourself worthy. Arceus isn't a false God. It's just not all of him
It could still be Arceus isn't an all-powerful creator god. At most we see them make one egg, which uses some sort of magic circle; if one copied the circle, could a mere mortal possibly make Pokemon eggs too?
Yeah, I don’t think it’s necessary to define a god by a Christian definition as an all powerful thing that can curb stomp everyone. Plenty of people throughout history have worshiped creator gods that can make a universe but are still killable, so why can’t Arceus be like that and still be the true creator of the Pokémon world?
Idea: the creation trio and mew are all parts of Arceus. When they were birthed, arceus was an all-powerful being. Perhaps, they looked like beta arceus. To lighten the load, they split themselves into 5 Pokémon. The creation trio made the universe itself, while mew scouted space for a suitable home base; once it was found, mew created the unown and began populating the planet with their help. Meanwhile, Arceus oversaw everything, and created mount coronet to be their home.
The Macargo thing is misinformation, 18000 f is the *surface* of the sun, not the core, which is about ~27000000 fahrenheit By the way, it's safe-ish to be quite near Macargo, sooooo... Another thing, it is shown in the anime that Rapidash has this weird power to not burn people they trust, it might not apply to Slugma's evolution, but who knows
my headcanon is that the games are made in-universe based on Ash's adventures and he's a celebrity for his travels in all the regions In other words the games we play exist in the anime and they are made based on Ash's life
I like to think that Piers does eventually go on to pass on the Spikemuth gym to Marnie so he can better focus on his music career, I also think that while he's still in Spikemuth, on occasion he likes to give some treats to all the galarian zigzagoons/linoones in the city and he ends up just eating goldfish or something like that for dinner instead lol. It's kinda just his way of giving back to the pokemon in his hometown.
i've got a bunch of hc's but here's some of my favorites - Emmet is a horrible cook so Ingo's been slowly teaching himself how to cook - Paldea's general shape is 100% based on Spain but the towns are a jumble of European nations (like that one town with the Sunflora statue looks a lot like the Netherlands) - all the anime we have exist in the pokemon universe and Ash likes JJBA - Prof. Sycamore was Not Okay (TM) for several months post-Team Flare. He gets emotional around male Pyroar now because they remind him of Lysandre
Okay, you NEED to play Legends Arceus. If I had a nickel for every time a facility boss was thrown across space/time and their memory was wiped, I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. And after seeing all of these angsty animations on RUclips, it's my headcanon that the other subway bro is driving himself insane while trying to look for his twin. Also, I don't care that it's not in the dub, everyone from Galar, except the folks from Spikemuth and Gloria, have British accents, with the latter being Scottish.
The whole Arceus being weak thing and why you can catch it is casually explained by Arceus himself in the newest game. The reason why is because it isn’t Arceus, like Arceus creates weaker duplicates of itself and allowed the player to hold onto one of Arceus’ “fragments” we have never seen Arceus at its highest potential, we have only ever seen pieces it has allowed us to have.
One more for the road. A lot of Allister's behavior is similar to other introverted children of his apparent age(12-14) on the autistic spectrum. The repetitive speech/movement. How awkward he is in social settings during his episode in Twilight Wings. He probably doesn't like looking other people in the eyes, which contributes to him wearing his mask. The fact that he startles so easily when around other people. And even the fact that he seems to understand Pokemon better than humans, and is more comfortable around the former. When he first introduced himself, I personally had the impression that he keeps his voice quiet, especially because he is literally wearing a Shy Guy mask. This was confirmed in both the main anime and Twilight Wings. When I realized this, it made him more adorable to me. (In a little brother way.) I'm high-functioning autistic and identify as an introvert. Fortunately, some people helped me come out of my shell throughout high school. It seems the player character does the same for Allister in Shield.
Had these headcanons: -Team Rocket was somehow able to get into the Indigo Plateau so many times in season 1 because Giovanni had some people working on the inside -Tobias was an agent for the Pokemon League Association like that one Nurse Joy with a Latias or an Interpol Agent like Looker and the reason he was going through the Gyms so quick was because he was trying to find any Team Galactic members/spies, which is also how be had access to multiple Legendaries -Ash keeps coming back from death because he saw Ho-oh after a near death experience and was blessed by its Sacred Ash item -Reason why Ash seemed to regress in Unova was because Unova is Pokemon World America and he was struggling with the language, which made it difficult to learn about the Pokemon without using the Pokedex -Because he had a car, most of the time Gary is seen is during his victory lap with his cheerleaders and he only challenged the Viridian City Gym was because it is the supposed strongest gym in the region -Brock gets depressed over Professor Ivy because he never stood a chance with her: she's a lesbian -Since it's mentioned by N in the BW anime that 2 years before was when Team Plasma was at its peak of activity, this explains why Ash was able to find starters in the Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh region so easily -Espeon and Umbreon are more common in Johto because it is less urbanized and people have to work together and befriend their Pokemon more. Leafeon and Glaceon are more common in Sinnoh due to how quickly the weather changes with the seasons. Sylveon is more common in Kalos because generations of breeding in a region filled with Fairy Types let fairy moves enter the gene pool and it adapted -The reason you can find underleveled but fully evolved Pokemon in Alola is because or tourists and their radios playing that evolution forcing sound during the Lake of Rage incident -The reason Mirage Island is so rare in-game is because it is hidden by a mirage itself and weather conditions have to be perfect for it to show up -Aether Paradise is stationed in Alola because it was the region most effected by people releasing non-native Pokemon during Team Plasma's time
I don’t really have many headcanons for other characters other than my favorite so -Raihan and Leon swap hats from time to time, also one time raihan stole Leon’s main hat and freaked him out -Raihan doesn’t wear socks -Nessa listens to Doja Cat and Tyler the Creator (Raihan introduced her to tyler)
So about that, 'What if he gave Ash the wrong Pikachu?' one- In the X&Y Anime there was an episode where Ash switched places with an Ash from another reality, and their Pikachu where two very different Pokemon. The Ash that we didn't know had a stronger more aggressive Pikachu, while the Ask we know had one that was much more tame. Also, In the Journeys Anime The once again hopped world's but I don't remember exactly what the Pikachu over there was like, but It's very Possible that Oak could've given Ash lots of different Pikachu's over Different Dimensions. Who knows, maybe Pikachu decided a lot of what that world is like.
I like to think that Pokemon in boxes all share this one big room. How the room looks is dependent on the background you choose for the box. Pick a fancier background the room is fancier simple as that. It also allows me to think that my Pokemon actually interact with each other inside the box.
My headcanon for SV is that the two protagonists (Florian and Juliana) are twins with Florian being shy and timid while Juliana is energetic and joyful. Florian would definitely do Victory Road because he has a crush on Nemona and Juliana would want to have adventures with Arven
My Arcues headcannon is that he allows you to catch you by not using its full power when you fight it, like, it can break out of the Master Ball with ease, but doesn't because you seem worthy
Red is possibly mute,but since he talked in PME(Pokemon Masters Ex) l’d likely say he’s more selective mute hence he also speaks in the games. And more info gathered up,he only likely speaks in the ingame battles cuz thats the only way he can communicate through his pokemon. But still,that doesnt correct your headcanon! I’m just sharing mine. :)
I have this headcanon have that pokemon have the same or very similar ambitions to a lot of trainers. As in most of them hear stories of the champions' pokemon as kids and want to one day be caught by a future champion and go on many great adventures. I also like to think that once they reach a certain level they start to get a lot of confidence an get picky with trainers wich is one reason why they become harder to catch.
Somewhat verified in the wild area of Galar and in Legends Arceus. Wild pokemon can and will kick your ass. Not your pokemon's ass, in the latter game it's YOUR ass they can kick, too. Pokemon love fighting. There was a whole thing where people would post videos of pokemon in the wild area chasing the player.
Personally my head canon for Pokedex entries are that most of them were originally written a while ago so most of them are more myth than reality and only recently have scientists been more accurate with their examininations. I mean even in modern pokemon it still is extremely dangerous to make a Pokemon mad and examining pokemon constantly would probably make a few of them more than aggitated. As well some of them could be left in legends that are too interesting to replace like Volcarona replacing the sun
I always get attached to NPCs in Pokémon so I have my own lore for many trainers. Here they are: 1. This is sad but, my favourite gym leader is Falkner. In BW2 in world tournament he says something about his dad watching him from above, and many people interpret it that his dad is dead, but I always thought that he actualy left him, and Falkner belives that if he could be good enough, his dad will see. So the headcanon backstory of Falkner goes like this: Falkner was mainly rased by his mom who was some kind of pristess in Sprout Tower, and his parents wanted him to take her role when he grow up. When he was in his late teens his mother died, and his father was depressed and left him. He never truly known his dad so he only had the expectations his mother told him. He also can use a bow (just because he has arm bracers and prep blue haired anime girl vibe ) 2. I think Bede was born in Unova. Rose addopted him from unovian orfanage because taking an orfan would worm up his image, but he specificly traveled over sea for it because he was scared to accidently be conected to some disfuncional galarian familly. This headcanon oryginated because Bede’s theme has gen 5 vibe.
The issue with Arceus is it's absolutely a god, but being a creator god doesn't inherently give you omnipotence or complete control, and a lot of people seem to assume that it does for some reason. Just because the Abrahamic god is like that doesn't mean that's the case for everything. And yeah I know "omnipotent" is its ability in Conquest but it just gives it an improved dodge.
It's entirely possible the ability was named by a human, who saw them dodge a lot and, combined with the whole creator god thing, assumed they were omnipotent. It's also important to know omnipotent isn't all knowing, it's all powerful. To a mortal, any god could appear omnipotent.
I still hear people referring to Arceus with the are-see-us pronounciation and to that I tell them this: In legends arceus, you get an arc phone. If you follow the same pronounciation as arceus, you get the arse phone. Anyway here's my headcanon: Ingo actually does remember what happened before legends arceus, he's just blocking it out so that he doesn't miss his twin brother, friends or partner pokemon. He doesn't want to feel these negative emotions so instead of facing them head on, he tries to pretend that they aren't real. I mean look at his face in game. Is that the face of a man without any burdens? He looks like he's trying repress something and isn't tellng anybody so that they don't remind him, leading to them saying he "has amnesia"
I remember it as “arc” as in “archangel.” But now that I know more about “Reincarnated into a Pokemon World With My Smartphone,” I have more pneumonic devices!
I don't care which one is "correct" you will catch me dead before I pronounce it like "aRkEuS". Ar-see-us sounds way better and also, arse phone sounds way funnier
I forgot where, but i've read that arceus is not like, actually him, it's just little bit, his avatars. Which explains why he's so weak and can be captured by a human, he's okay with it especially since it's not actually him
I always wonder what younger Giovanni looked like, my head cannon is that Giovanni had the most rock bottom glow down after he had Silver or Giovanni looked like that from his childhood. Either way Game freak has two options, show a younger version of Giovanni in a newer Pokemon title or give us Silver's mom. when thinking of " Younger Giovanni looks exactly like Silver." I'll like to think after Silver seeing pictures of Giovanni in his youth and now, Silver low-key fears of looking like his dad. In some images of Silver before the heart gold and soul silver remakes he was shown to have brown hair like Giovanni In the Anime. In conclusion Silver being the angst anime boy that he is dyed his hair red. ( probably had a death match between him and Maxie for the last red hair dye.) Was Silver basically homeless through out the entirety of the Gold and Silver games? Imagine Ingo coming back to Nimbasa city dressed like the way he is from legend of Arceus, only to know that he was only gone for a week. ( I support the Emmett fights Arceus and Volo with his bare hands after he gets Ingo back theory as well.) sorry if its to much.
The manga How I Became A Pokémon Card has a chapter about a kid trying to save a wild Persian, and the kid turns out to be a young Giovanni, so we do have a canon idea of what he looked like. There's also a shot of him as a teenager with uh...well he's got long hair and a trenchcoat and looks like a goddamn mall ninja. It's hilarious.
Headcanon: N _is actually_ a more direct descendent from the original rulers of Unova (because they were said to have talked with Pokémon I’m pretty sure), and Ghetsis is either a much less direct descendent, or just a freaking liar. More importantly, however, Ghetsis knew that N could talk to Pokémon because he was a descendent of Unovan Royalty.
the comment about pokeballs made me realize that I always imagined pokemon stored in a pc were just data, the pokemon comprised of the data are in a state of unconsciousness, dreaming maybe. when taken out of the pc, the pokemon are restored to a physical format and are awake and aware, even when in their pokeballs. I always assumed that pokemon stayed in their pokeballs because they wanted to take a break and rest up for the next battle.
My headcanon is that before Red and Blue went to Alola, his hair was jet black and a little bit longer. Back then he thought it looked so cool and made him look super hot and mysterious, and Blue hated it. Red decided to dye his hair brown and cut it because he wanted to get out of his edgy teen phase (and also because Blue thought it would be funny). I also like to think that the reason why Red and Blue went to Alola was because Blue slightly missed Red (no matter how much he wanted to deny it) and wanted him to get out of Mt Silver for once. It's also pretty funny to think of Blue dragging Red away from Mt Lanakila and Red desperately trying to go there.
I just have this random as shit headcanon that Colress after Neo Team Plasma is defeated in pokemon bw2 he takes the ship, just goes to everyone, tells them they've disbanded (he did do all this besides the next thing), and he just went "we're going on a vacation to alola everyone!"
I also just headcanon N is a Zoroark seeing certain stuff like N being capable to understand and speak to pokemon, he doesn't like people that much, I mean he was raised by them before being taken in and seeing as Zoroarks are pretty against humans, I mean fuck if you use this memory device to view N's zoroarks memories you get one of N's memories, also N's appearance with his hair. Just a lot that makes me feel like I can headcanon N is probably a Zoroark without thinking I'm being stupid
N and silver were friends as kids but as they grew up, they gained more responsibilities and so they stopped talking. After N ran away and started exploring the world, he refused to explore johto because he was afraid to find his old friend with the same fate he was supposed to have. I've got a truck load more but this is one of my favorite
My headcannon: There are multiple of each species of legendary Pokémon, but that they’re the offspring of the originals, which the legends are based on. In the case of Mewtwo, it’s instead that multiple people recreated the same process that creates Mewtwo from the surviving research from its original creators. The anime depicts a baby Lugia, which is the basis of this theory. In the case of Mewtwo, considering groups like Team Plasma created (what would be known as) Genesect, it didn’t seem too far fetched that they could create another Mewtwo.
I have a headcanon similar to the one about the pokedex being written by children. It an idea I came up with when I was feeling nostalgic for hgss. The idea is that the pokedex is a world wide project started by oak. Oak's dream is to catch all pokemon for his pokedex but it would nearly impossible for one person alone. So instead he convinces other regional professors to help him by having them hand out pokedexes that only show that region's pokemon to trainers. When he says you caught all pokemon, he referring to the regional dex and trainers that have proven themselves by completing the regional dex are allowed access to the national dex so that they may continue capturing pokemon if they continue their journey by heading to a new region. This is also the reason why dex entries are different from game to game, the national dex is constantly being updated by trainers and their research.
I have a few: Ingo returns to his own time after 2 months of being in Hisui. N gets all of Ghetsis's Pokémon after the events of B2/W2. He got his Bouffalant and Bisharp after B/W, since Ghetsis does not use them in B2/W2. Guzma does not drink any alcohol whatsoever, it reminds him of his abusive father. Flint is a very good listener. Wallace's fashion design is based off the clothing of Ancient Sootopolian. Volo is immortal, which he was granted after his first encounter with Giratina. His left eye is also like Giratina's eye, having a black sclera and red iris. N and Silver bond over having terrible dads, the two are practically brothers. Plumeria knew Guzma since childhood. Cyrus would someday escape the Distortion World. Maxie does not have good sight without his glasses. Steven has a basement in his house where he stores his most valuable rocks. Bea and Marshal are cousins. Grimsley's gambling addiction began when he was 20. A little while after the events of S/US/M/UM, he rejoins the Elite Four. Courtney is a robot. Ghetsis is locked away in an insane asylum on a remote island.
My headcanon: people in the pokemon world canonically speak the language their regions are based on. people in kanto speak japanese, people in kalos speak french, etc. we get to choose the language only for player convenience, but they might be speaking a different language in-universe
The head canon about Gloria being Scottish made me think about my own head canon regarding the Gen 8 protagonist's backgrounds. My headcanon for Gloria is that they grew up helping their mum and Hop's family with raising the Wooloo, which caused her to have to develop a very assertive side to try to get the sheep to stay in their pens and not wander off. However, when she’s not in a bad mood, she's generally a pretty sweet individual who took up knitting using the Wooloo roll from her farm. Maybe even the outfit she wears is stuff she made herself, and she could’ve added the wool onto Hop's jacket as thanks for a favour or something. As for Victor, I imagine that they actually didn’t grow up in Postwick. I headcanon them more as the kind of guy that grew up in a particularly well-off household He’s not exactly a snooty rich kid, but he has a tendency to forget what stuff is meant to be "expensive" by normal standards. Also, unlike Gloria, he's a bit of a pushover, and is pretty wispy-washy when it comes to life goals. Taking the headcanon a bit further, I sometimes picture the idea that the two could even be cousins, with Victor being the younger of the two, causing Gloria to coddle him a bit. Maybe Victor's side of the family were the ones to help Leon originally become champion in the first place, and they became wealthy through that.
Personally I have the headcanon that Chairman Rose is the Galar Protag’s deadbeat father. Idk he just sorta has the vibe i guess. Like he literally invites them to a celebratory meal after they beat Nessa only to then immediately skip out on them which is like PEAK deadbeat behavior I think.
My headcanon was that the Lake trio were completely conscious when helping team Galactic. They did it because they were threatened and told that they would be killed. Then, when they were no longer worried about Team Galactic, Mesprit became extremely spiteful to Cyrus and summoned Giratina.
My personal head cannon is that Mew came first form an alternate dimension through an Ultra Wormhole and then an Arceus egg came through a different wormhole hatched and then they just decided to create life and the universe.
5:41 "I shall give you a part of myself, even though it's still slower than an Electric Ball, it's still a minuscule fraction of my true power, with a bst of 720" -arceus?, legends postgame.
For the dex entries, I've always seen it as the professor is the one to make them. They already know of these pokemon (or else what have they been doing for a living). So as a way to get new kids to go out and have an adventure (and want to actually catch everything), they have really cool sounding "science" for each entry. It may not be accurate, but it will interest a child. So when they catch a pokemon, it gets scanned into the dex and that pre-made dex entry is unlocked. If they used accurate entries, a kid might get bored when their lava slug isn't really hot enough to melt your face. Big numbers sound cooler, so they exaggerate to keep the kid wanting to discover more. I think the end of the Legends Arceus game does a great job of explaining Arceus as a god vs as a pokemon, but since you haven't played it, I won't spoil it.
5:30 Some endgame/postgame PLA Spoilers, and I know this is just a headcanon but It was confirmed there that the Arceus we all know is just a "piece" of Arceus itself, a small piece of it's TRUE power. And the appearance Arceus takes is most likely a form mortals could comprehend, since we did see a glimpse of what seems to be Arceus's "true form" at the beginning of the game.
My head canon is that Pokémon battling is less like ‘forcing animals to fight’ and more like ‘this is enrichment for them because if you don’t do something to help them release their abilities they could hurt themselves/ others’. Battling isn’t the only way for Pokémon to release their magical energy but it’s one of the more accessible options. This is why trainers exist, you are training them to control and hone their power. It’s a symbiotic relationship (in most cases, jerks exist unfortunately) it keeps the Pokémon and the public in general safe and also provides a way to get stronger. (This headcanon is also why I refuse to enter the competitive scene. Having certain Pokémon be better battlers makes sense from a gameplay perspective but personally? I hate it. Pokémon are your friends and the game is constantly telling you this so I’m not discarding my buddy just cause his nature isn’t optimal for battles. No shade to the competitive scene, just not how I play)
XD that first headcannon i incredibly agree with, basically the pokedex is like a wiikepidea about pokemon that anyone can change and the profesors just need to give the approval either by finding it funny enough or a unique way to describe that mon in their region
I have a couple about the Striaton Triplets: 1. Cress is slightly taller that Cilan and Chili, hence why his trousers seem to be slightly shorter. 2. Cress is the eldest triplet, Cilan is the middle and Chili is the youngest.
I never actually thought of Gloria (or Victor) as being Scottish, not because of any personal feelings towards the idea, but because of what little dialogue we did get: certain dialogue options will have the MC greet other characters with the word "wotcher," a casual greeting typically associated with the Cockney dialect, which had origins in working-class London before spreading to other parts of the country.
For the Arceus one, the answer is in Pokémon Infinity (even though as a fangame it's not canon) where it's revealed that Arkhaos is the creator of the multiverse and the father of all the Arceus
I think I have a plausible explanation for Gloria having an English accent. Her teacher in school, or likely a private tutor, spoke with the same accent and she just picked it up because she heard it so much. similarly, one or both of her parents speak with the same accent, so she naturally speaks like that because she hears it the most, as people tend to spend more time at home than at school or work. Maybe both her educator and one or both of her parents spoke like that.
My headcanon is that people are much more durable to physical attacks, maybe due to evolution living next to fire breathing dragons and god, explaining why ash can take charizards’s flamethrower or pikachu’s thunderbolt
it’s cool that you read all the comments. honestly it’s pretty crazy that i can move my fingers and letters are sent over cables and end up as light projected into your eyes. it’s almost like i’m touching your eyeballs haha anyways nice video, keep up the good work!
my little crack headcannon is that all the legendaries are like a dysfunctional family, the alolan legendaries are the concerned neighbors, and arceus is the senile grandpa. arceus needs to be babysat because he does wild and stupid stuff when not babysat. lugia is so tired of babysitting arceus, they throw poor old grandpa around between them like a game of hot potato. they're all stupid every last one
my personal head canon is: I think Unova and Alola region are one single region that separated at some point, here is my reason 1. they mirrored each other - both Unova and Alola region were based of the United States, New York and Hawaii respectively - their lore ties in their mascot box art, which can be fused later in the next couple of games - N and Lillie are the key to unlock the Legendary Box Arts because of their relationship with the said Legends, while player of each region can obtain one of theirs as well, it is heavily implied that dating N in Ferris Wheel and dating Lillie in Exeguttor Island is NECESSARY to unlock said Legends - in their vanilla gameplay, both player are not battling their respective Champion of the region, and their companion (N & Lillie) actually left and gone after the credit rolls, not to mention these companions are having quite harsh life because they have an abusive parent (Ghetsis & Lusamine) speaking of N & Lillie 2. N & Lillie are related, but not by blood - so many fans theorize that they are Pokémon in disguise, but in fact, no they aren't, they are pure human being - remember, Ghetsis adopted N prior to BW games, he was with wild Pokémon back then, I believe those Pokémon are actually belongs to the Aether Paradise during Mohn's era that was released back to the wild after their successful treatment - Ghetsis was actually a freelancer who work for the Aether Paradise, he dislike his client who always not giving him enough resources and incomes, so he betrayed and join together with the royal family of Unova to become one of the Sages - Ghetsis's other adopted children, Anthea and Concordia, which are N's real siblings in my head canon, are actually a member of Aether Paradise during that era as well, they were adopted by Ghetsis because of their ability that works well for his kingdom - Lillie came into contact with Nihilego at the same time as Mohn's disappearance, and I believe this is the work of Team Plasma to avenge the company, and Mohn is brainwashed and left behind in the Poképalego - Lusamine's obsession with Pokémon collection actually become the source of education by Ghetsis to teach N the lesson, that Pokémon should be freed from opression - Lusamine herself is actually quite arrogant and selfish, even before the disappearance of Mohn, and I believe Aether Paradise was build by her idea to contain a lot of Pokémon from different regions, in order to "preserve" them, but this idea is changed by Mohn to be more like Poképalego - things just getting worse with the appearance of the Ultra Beasts speaking of Ultra beast 3. both Unova and Alola had contact with Ultra Beasts at one point - it is heavily implied that Team Plasma was on urge on something, that made themself created Genesect, a mass of them, and I believe this is to counteract the Ultra Beast that one appeared in Unova, same as how Aehter Foundation created 3 Type:Full to counteract the Ultra Beast, but failed as the result - Professor Brunet was working for Dream Radar project in Unova, and in this Dream Radar, player are actually low key travelled through a different dimension, and I believe this dimention is a paralel to the Ultra Wormhole, which is why she moved to Alola to observe these beast from their home region - not only Brunet, but Professor Fennel was actually working on Dream related project as well, that also made players to actually able to travel across dimension - the inspiration they made for the Pokéstar Studio films was actually from the Ultra Beasts, you can clearly see from their design perspectives - in Alola, we have the Tapus to protect the region from these threats, but what about Unova? we have the Swords of Justice, yes they hate humans, but it is also implied that they were training to fight something, and I believe it was to prepare to fight the UB - Colress involvement in both sequels answers it all and since we are talking about sequels, last but not least they are both involved in Time and Space respectively - Black & White 2 took place 3 years after, and Ultra Sun & Moon took place in alternate timeline where UB & human fusion didn't occurs - Caitlin, Frontier Brain from Sinnoh and Anabel, Frontier Brain from Hoenn made their return as an adult - Red appeared and can be challanged in those games
Mine is that Leon isn’t bad with directions, but pretends to be so Hop feels better. Also that Hops parents are not fond of Hop, which it seems is a pretty common notion. Also if Ultra Necrozma stood in front of a mirror, it’d absorb its own reflected light until it became so hot it’d melt the mirror. And Arven is an oblivious bisexual. Like the way he manhandles MC in The Way Home and showers them with complements, please! The boy probably has both Mommy and Daddy issues, and doesn’t even know what love feels like. Give that poor boy some love!
So mine is similar to the multiple legendaries headcannon, but slightly different What if instead of there being just straight up multiples, the ones that we see and catch (as players) are all avatars for the legendary pokemon. Arceus, for example, shows us their true form at the beginning of PLA, but later when we catch him, it's an avatar they sent to aid us in protecting Hisui
I’ve been making a write up for a unified Pokémon world and this is the method I was using. Hell, we know that Arceus has his own divine realm and can spawn avatars, so why not include Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Xerneas, Yveltal, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina in this list?
My head canon is that galar has the hardest gym challenge in the Pokémon world and that’s why the world coronation series is Held there, why Leon is the strongest trainer and that gym leaders like bea and Raihan do well in competition when the rest of the strongest trainers are elite four members excluding volkner who was expressed to be a extremely strong trainer yet Raihan was not only above him but I’d assume that piers and Gordie because it’s assumed Gordie will be the next galar champion and it’s assumed piers is stronger then him because of the gym order
I have a head canon involving Cyrus’s Crobat. Golbat requires a high friendship stat to evolve into Crobat but Cyrus states that he sees Pokémon as “extensions of his power” not friends. I think that while Cyrus doesn’t care for his Pokémon like friends or partners, his Pokémon still care about him. This would explain how Crobat had evolved despite Cyrus’s lack of emotion.
my headcanon is that Leon let us win in Sword and Shield. With all the hype about him being this undefeated champion just to be pretty easy compared to other champions just doesn't add up for me lore wise.
One headcannon for each Team Star Boss: Giacomo owns at least one electric guitar, despite not knowing how to play it. Mela is afraid of deep water and hates the rain Atticus has auditioned for the school play before and was thrilled to be the villain Ortega says "frick" regularly Eri nearly broke Ortega's arm in an arm-wrestling contest and still feels guilty. (Bonus) Penny sneaks her old DS into class and plays it when she's bored.
7:38, they actually did try, Gen5 had voice acting, the Village Bridge theme has singing, Colress’s theme has a countdown, and Ghetsis’s theme has chanting
A headcanon that I have is that after fighting Chairman Rose and seeing Leon fail to catch Eternatus, he is on his last pokeball. He was likely using every type of pokeball he had. I choose to believe this because he wouldn't bring 1 pokeball and hope for the best, and that most people who play pokemon have likely experienced this as well, praying that the legendary stays in the ball
Headcanon #1: Ash and Red would have actually a wholesome friendship and do funny stuff together like trying to dig out a Diglett. Both would be unsuccessful but would laugh it out heartily. They would inspire each other's battle styles. Headcanon #2: Snivy seems like the type who would try and get comfy with Ash just to trigger Bayleaf. Not out of malice but playfulness and gratitude over having a Trainer who chased after them both. Headcanon #3: Dawn's Piplup, Ash's Oshawott, Clemont's Chespin and Serena's Pancham seem like the crew that would win over an island's Pokémon population in a PMD-like adventure. Headcanon #4: Trainers in games refuse to accept flexibility in moves's usage in a bratty manner and you're forcefully complying to the rules. E.g: Hitting a flying target with Bonemerang. Headcanon #5: Trainer's Pokémon levels, yours excluded, reflect their potential but also how seriously they take the fight. Lance's Dragonite being at level 40 means Lance is holding out on his opponents ; he's fighting as if his Dragonite was at this level.
I know this video is old as heck,but my headcanon is that missigno is a ultra beast that got corrupted while travelling to the og pokémon world. Also in Pokémon Masters Ex,Ethan has a pilot suit which my indicate that he became a pilot in the future
My favorite headcanon is that every single character in Pokemon games is autistic. Shorts Kid can't do pants because of sensory reasons, a lot of trainers have special interests that result in single-type teams, protagonists tend to be nonverbal, every trainer has specific dialogue scripts, and battles never require a quick reaction time

Lugia
@@TheRogueRenegade luigia
Animals are being replaced and going extinct so only some farmed Animals remain unseen because it's dark and irrelevant to the plot. They are not retconning them out, the later games are taking place when they're more scarce so updated elephant to copperajah because more relatable to kids who never seen one. Some are named after what normal animals they resembled which had to have existed at one point to know they looked like one. They're from ultra space wormholes which is where arceus came from and seeded their world's pokemon from mew and ditto is a failed experiment and so is mewtwo but with human DNA. People breed with pokemon and became super human which is why they can survive impossible things and some have colorful hair. Pokeballs could be altered to catch humans and are designed to not catch other people's pokemon and certain percentages of human DNA without over rides like a snag machine or probably a way for police to apprehend criminals.
smallish headcannon but

You never actually catch Arceus in pla, he just gives you "a piece of himself"
"You want a piece of me? Well then here you go."
@@dipstick6778 *Arceus start floating away
@@dipstick6778 Oh love a good asdfmovie reference
And the fact the “piece” is already strong but not as strong as Arceus, gives us an idea how powerful he actually is
This makes a lot more sense when you think about him in the movie vs it in the game.
The movie shows that he is only vulnerable after giving away fragments of himself to humanity but even then states that these pieces are indestructible.
Not to mention, even when vulnerable he is still INSANELY strong to the point that 3 legendaries and the whole of Ash's team / friends couldn't do anything more than slow him down.
Meanwhile, in the game you can theoretically KO it with a lone Pikachu.
...There seems to be a slight disparity in the level of power.
I always thought audino was blind and relied on sound, the empty eyes and the emphasis on hearing and ears, plus the name sounding like audio led me to believe this and I still like to think that it’s true

It has ears so capable that people forget it has working eyes?
Deoxyxs is the battle able version of Pokerus.

My headcanon is that Ash is the narrator of the anime and is unreliable, and has grown fond of tall tales in his adult years. It explains Pikachu beating Rock types and such.
From what I could gather, he doesn't bring up bonkers sounding events unless it's actually relevant, sutch as seing HO-OH ON THE FIRST DAY OF BEING A TRAINER
I believe that knowing he beat Brock's Geodude (Rock/Ground) with an electric-type move, even though geodude wouldn't take any damage from it.
Ground* types. Common misconception! :P I like this theory though!
I had a similar theory about that
It's basically cannon at this point, but it's basically just that the God like legendaries that aren't cannon species aren't actually captured technically. They could break out and leave at any time they wish, they just think the player has earned their help for a bit. And by a bit, I mean the trainers whole life. After all, one humans lifespan is basically spending an hour at a friend's house to an eternal being.
Was going to say this. I think DPPt almost makes this canon by the fact that Cyrus needed a magical macguffin to control Dialga/Palkia, because a Masterball wouldnt allow him to use their full power.
@@battlesheep2552 Yeah, in fact it is probably not just the god-like legendaries but most legendaries that are that way. Like Latios and Laties probably are not being stingy and are helping us in full but I can't see groudon, celebi or even Ho-oH helping us with all their power. Celebi with their time powers would be untouchable, groudon strength is able to rearrange the landscape at a global level... Ho-oH is capable of creating other lesser legendaries on demand from random pokemon.
I think of the legendaries the ones that we see their actual strength have to be more like victiny, meloetta, the 3 kanto birds, the 3 Jhoto dogs, the 3 shino spirits, maybe Mew?(I don't think Mew is supposed to be that powerful, he is legendary because he is like the primordial sea but as a creature), by consequence Mewtwo...
TBH rather than the divide between legendaries and mythicals, I rather would like to get legendaries separated into legendaries that we use their full power and legendaries that are just lending us part of their power. It doesn't even have to be for the same reason, like Groudon may actually agree to use their full power if we asked but they can't in a normal pokemon battle because if they used it they would just kill the adversary pokemon, their trainer and even us, so they have to hold back and them holding back to not kill is what we get, holding back is hard. While others like Dialga may actually be able to use more power without it being lethal if they wanted but then it wouldn't be that interesting for them, so they lend us a level of power that they consider fair or fun. Celebi may be lending us most of their power in the form of elemental attacks or physical attacks but is holding back most of their time-based abilities because using them for competitive sport-like battling would just be wrong.
A crazy headcannon of mine is that the reason Porygon Z becomes crazy is because he's the only creature that realizes he's in a video game. That Dubious Disc that makes him evolve is code from the game's cartridge, and since Porygon is a computer Pokemon, he becomes self aware, but realizes he has no power since he isn't a protagonist.
Edit: Now looking back at what I said, it sounds like Porygon Z is the Spampton or Jevil of the Pokemon world. Unable to change fate, because fate is in control of the player. Porygon Z is nothing more but some bits of code to help the player in their journey.
Nice headcanon it also became mine

My headcannon is that mystery dungeon takes place in the main universe and if a trainer is experienced enough, they can understand what Pokémon are saying
I remember reading something about how Pokeballs were invented because of one specific Pokemon: Primeape. It was just too dangerous to try to train one without them.
Oh, I know this one!
There was a Primeape that got so tired of fighting, it shrunk itself down (a self defense mechanism all Pokemon have) and went inside an old professor's glasses case.
This was from an old book from Red and Green, so it's not the FIRST use of Pokeballs, thanks to Legends Arceus, but it's likely it had become a lost art until then, or people realized you didn't need a specialized handmade apricorn ball, but any case would do, which lead to Pokeball factories using this, combined with a connection to Bill's (and later other computer geniuses) Pokemon storage system, to make a profit.
@@gluttonousgoddesso add on to that, every pokeball is equipped with a tranquilliser gas, which activates this capability of pokemon. The name of the professor was Nishinomori
@@user-fd3vn5yq3h uh, where did you hear that? I'm curious
@@gluttonousgoddess I can link you the Italian video if you want, I’m pretty sure it’s the original Pokédex made when Pokémon was known as “pocket monsters” and the games still weren’t published
I have a headcanon that Pokeballs were the direct result of a program making Pokemon more train-able that started after the First World War, which lines up with the end of WW1 (1918) and the stated invention year (1925).
That scientist mucking about with a Primeape? He was a part of that program, and Primeape was chosen due to its proven ferocity; if Primeape can be contained and used on the battlefield, any other Pokemon can, too.
It isn’t until the 1950’s however, after they were used to devastating effect by the Japanese during WW2, that they began to see widespread commercial use.
My headcannons are that
> Legendaries CAN and WILL procreate, but daycares just don't have the right environment for that
> Becaude the environment for their breeding is very rare, for a legendary to actually have sons or daughters only occurs once every a very long time, making it so very few legendaries are out there at a time
> Because Legendaries mostly are said or very probable to be incapable of dying from age, that makes it so there are LOTS of legendary pokemons out there, just asleep or hidden.
I mostly agree, especially due to the sheer quantity of the same type of legendaries spread across different regions. However, I think there are some exceptions. The creation trio, the aura trio (I think that's the name anyway. The ones from X and Y), all three parts of the original dragon, the weather trio, the Sword and Shield trio (don't know the proper name), the Ruinous Quartet, Celebi, and, of course, Arceus. I don't think any of them reproduce, due to their importance to their home region or the world as a whole. The creation trio and Arceus are powerful enough to split their essence to create more of them to be in more places at once (hence why trainers can capture them). Xerneas and Yveltal are just reborn if they die, so they don't need to procreate. Zygarde is a combination of the cores and cells and doesn't reproduce, however the cells probably do reproduce, and the cores might. There would be multiple original dragons if it reproduced (since only the one would've split), and constituent parts of a greater whole probably don't have the capability to reproduce. If either Kyogre or Groudon had children, the balance of power between them would be uneven, so Rayquaza intervenes before they get to that point (by severely embarrassing any potential partner of either of them before they can finish their first date, I assume). Eternatus would be an even bigger problem if there were more of them, so there's clearly only one of it. The sword and shield doggos were completely unknown to modern day Galar, and they have phones, so there clearly aren't more elsewhere either, or they would've been found, thus there's probably only one of each. The Ruinous Quartet are physical manifestations produced by actual objects, so there's probably only one of each. There's only one Celebi, but there can be multiple at once because it ran out of room on the timeline, so it started doubling up in the same time period.
I had this idea for this event they should have implemented in BDSP. In it, you are allowed to breed Arceus, but only once. When that happens, the daycare man will say that a celebi came and stole the egg. You can track the celebi to a time portal that leads to the primordial void, where the celebi agrees to become your pokemon as long as you leave the egg there.
that explains shiny legendaries
Legendaries definitely do have offsprings. I recall seeing Lugia with a child Lugia about the size of a Lapras in a Pokémon episode (or movie) and I know from Bulbapedia that there's at least one episode where multiple Celebi can be seen at a time. Granted, Celebi is a time traveler, so seeing multiple of it at the same time doesn't necessarily mean they're different individuals, but one of them was shiny, which does prove there are at least two.
Also, the Phione and Manaphy eggs must come from somewhere...
since i've saw the rom jack of team rocket edition i think daycares are evil. Probabily thats another reason tho.
Since the games confirm that humans evolved/descended from Pokémon, my headcanon is that some people have higher levels of poké DNA than others. It could explain things like why Sada and Iono from S&V have sharp teeth/fangs, why N from B&W can completely understand Pokémon, or why Sabrina from the anime has straight up psychic powers.
But I also headcanon that it works the other way: some Pokémon having more 'advanced' DNA making it possible for them to use human speech. Like Team Rocket's Meowth for example, or certain Pokémon from the various movies (Lucario, Zorua, Shaymin, etc)
i guess thats explains ash's superpowers
My main headcanon is that Ns ability to hear pokemons inner thoughts is just a form of psychic ability I haven't seen it specifically stated anywhere
I AGREE. I even have a few stories where N has out and out psychic abilities like the psychic specialist trainer archetype, they were just really suppressed and restricted to only hearing Pokemon thoughts, but after being freed from Ghetsis his abilities start to (for lack of a better term) "evolve" into full psychic powers.
I have a headcanon linked to that that says his ability is inherited (his mother is my usual pick for who he inherited it FROM because Ghetsis sure doesn't have it.
Edit: my answer to the N is a Zoroark theory is that he's not; rather, a Zoroark was one of the Pokemon who raised him (he is seen with a Zorua in Evolutions) and he tied his hair back like that to better fit in with the "pack".
One of my favourite headcanons kinda spiralling into a bunch of smaller headcanons and it's all Pokemon Masters fault.
-The main headcanon is that Grimley got bored on Pasio so made an underground Poker ring with some of the other strong trainers like Nanu and the triplets. Eventually more trainers stopped by and no one has the nerve to tell Lear about it. This main headcanon spun off smaller headcanons, such as
-Emmet got banned from playing Poker because Emmet used to eat the poker chips
-Crasher wake has an action figure collection and asks strong trainers (like Blue) if they can hook him up with some rare ones of them
-Nanu refuses to do anything about the illegal activities on Pasio despite being a cop because its not his duristiction and he likes the chaos
-Sidney doesn't drink much booze because he lost respect for it when he found out that the "Devils Drink" isn't made by the devil
-Morty formed a sort of parent like bond with Allister since they share a lot of similarities (Ghost type, gym leader, supernatural, "seeing things" etc)
-They try and refuse entry to the younger trainers (like the protags) but one day Silver just walked in and no one batted an eye. It's now where he goes to escape Ethan being overbearing and Morty gawking at his Ho oh
I don't know how this became a thing it just did and I live for it
okay the Emmet one is just cute bro
I could see nobody batting an eye at the son of the mafia boss joining a poker ring. Both a source of fun and money, and even if the geezer's retired they've seen the chaos his dad can cause, if any alternate world Giovanni finds out Silver was banned he'd probably throw a fit, assuming either Giovanni or Silver didn't just rat them out. "Yea yea I have ties to a crime lord, but I also have intel on an illegal poker ring."
pokemon masters is honestly really fun headcanon grounds for interactions and stuff so i can't blame you
(one of my weirder masters-based ones is some trainers took to racing around Pasio on their Pokemon. mostly legendary ones. Zinnia and Silver started it between Rayquaza and Ho-Oh and the race roster's just expanded over time. some folks join in on the ground (Kris and Suicune, Blaine and Rapidash, Scottie/Bettie and Cobalion, Gladion and Silvally, Marley and Arcanine, etc.) but it's still mostly a sky race. it's kind of terrifying to watch)
My headcanon is that piers adopts any zigzagzoon he sees
omg imagine him with a giant army of zigzagoons
@@sleepyjester he is the zigzagoon king
This is my favourite headcanon so far
@@georgia3043 why thank you
Imagine him trying to sweep you with a default Linoone...
The best part is that it actually works really well.
Head Canon #1: Ingo and Emmet are mirror twins, Ingo is right-handed while Emmet is left-handed.
Head Canon #2: N is not Ghetsis biological son, but both are still relatives. That's how Ghetsis found out about N's existence and his ability to understand with Pokémon. Therefore Ghetsis finding N in the wilderness was not a "random encounter", he actively searched for the latter.
Head Canon #3 (potential PLA spoilers): Volo is not Cynthia's ancestor, he is her descendant. Volo traveled back in time to the last time Arceus was mentioned in history books, which happened to be the the time our protagonist landed in Hisui. Ironically Volo created a self-fulfilling proficy.
To add more to the theory, I say Volo is Cynthia's son or brother and he is unable to find the 16 plates and Arceus in his original time because the games' protagonist currently owns all of them.
Head Canon #4: Entei, Raikou and Suicune were originally Eeveelutions before being resurrected by Ho-Oh. I think this is a pretty common one.
Head Canon #5: The bottles in Guzma's room in the Aether Mansion all contain Tapu Cocoa (or Eneco Cocoa, that's the pun in Japanese), canonically his favorite drink. Cute cups just don't fit the tough persona he puts up in front of others.
my N is a zoroark thing that i don't necessarily believe in is that N's appearance and stuff is based off of Ghestis. I've seen people ask who the illusion would be based on if hes a zoroark, but like, he does look pretty similar to Ghetsis, i think. like theres differences, but like, maybe little zorua saw Ghetsis and like, made himself look similar
I feel like if they were the eeveelutions they would have the strength to escape. I headcanon that they were just regular old eevees
the only good headcanon about volo is that he is real and following me everywhere please someone help
Now I feel like Guzma buys bottles of beer, dumps it out, washes them, then fills them with Tapu Cocoa
I always wrote stories where N is explicitly Ghetsis’s kid bc it made no sense that they looked so similar and yet were apparently unrelated. My original theory was that Ghetsis dumped baby N in the woods, possibly leaving a Grunt or a tracker to ensure he grew up safely then came back to "heroically rescue" a kid he already knew was there. It's very much in his wheelhouse given how dramatic he is. Lately though I've been having the idea that N's mother caught wind of Ghetsis’s plan and tried to escape with N, only having time to leave him in the nearby woods Moses-style before Ghetsis caught up with her and killed her.
One of my favorite theories and one that is ABSOLUTELY a HC is the one about the Regi Trio being Nuclear Bomb victims. There's a lot backing it up and its one of the more morbid theories that is actually plausible.
Explain please :D
@@basicallyblobbity4226 There's a video on it by channel Goose Boose that goes really in depth into it, Here's a link if you're interested :D - ruclips.net/video/wj1bkM8x3bM/видео.html
…elaborate…
I'm sure that a ton of people have similar headcanons, but here are mine anyways.
1) Legendary and mythical Pokémon are immortal and godlike in status, so they actually Choose their trainers and just move on to another chosen partner when they are released or their current partner dies, which is why Pokémon like Arceus and Giratina are catchable in the first place. They choose to be caught.
2) This is almost 100% wishful thinking, but I personally think that each Pokémon game has two timelines: The canon timeline and the player's timeline and in the player's timeline, the player character in each game is actually just the same person moving from region to region for some reason or another, which explains why they are always a prodigy regardless of the game and how the player can have Pokémon from past generations despite them not being native to the current region.
3) N was a Pokémon Mystery Dungeons protagonist or one of the humans sent back from the PMD world in Gates To Infinity, which is why he can speak to Pokémon and understand them so well.
I've got a few more headcanons, but I'm tired of typing now.
The third one makes a lot of sense.
pokespe basically confirms headcanon #1
Judging by Scarlet and Violet, the first headcanon would actually make a ton of sense.
Please write the rest if you still remember because I really like all of these
@@TheRogueRenegade Oh, what an honor! Since you liked them, here's some of the other headcanons I've remembered:
1) Ingo's traveling back into Hisui actually explains every special gimmick the Pokémon franchise has ever introduced through the crazy logistics of matter displacement and physics.
2) The story of Giratina being banished is literally a retelling of the Fall from Grace in the bible, so I also choose to believe that Arceus, Palkia, and Dialga are some kind of commentary on the Holy Trinity.
3) The reason a lot of modern weaponry doesn't seem to show up often in the games is because, and this is kinda dark, Pokémon are so powerful that they are the weapons with which modern war is waged.
4) Mew might actually be the exact opposite of the singular genetic ancestor! Since time travel seems to be possible in the Pokémon universe, Mew might actually be the last Pokémon species to ever exist as the final genetic successor to the Pokémon race as a whole, which is why it can learn almost every move. It just makes sense to me.
5) Like with real animals, there are both feral and domestic breeds of Pokémon, which is why npcs and villain team grunts all seem to have the same kinds of Pokémon while gym leaders, the elite four, villain team leaders, rivals, and the player all tend to have more competitively viable Pokémon.
6) A lot of Pokedex entries about legendary, mythical, or even just particularly rare/dangerous Pokémon are either incorrect or lacking many details. I mean, who'd actually train a Litwick if it literally burned away at your life? Like, there's gotta be conditions to some of these things.
I'll probably add more later with an edit, haha.
I have a lot of hc but I'll try to keep it to 5:
1: The trains on the battle subway are run by the Klink line, they use magnetism to move the trains which is why the battle background is cave like to indicate a magnetic field.
2: Diglett cave is actually a giant Onix tunnel made long ago, but since Diglett and Dugtrio live there now people think they dug it out.
3: The Kalos region is part of a bigger unexplored continent, with Kiloude City being a place for Southeastern explorers to come back too. (Dendimelle Town being the Northeastern town for explorers)
4: The volcano on Cinnibar Island was made to erupt during the game, but Missingno is keeping it from erupting until after the Kanto Protagonist completes the game, which is why after you catch Missingno everything is glitched. (Because the protag gets caught up in the Eruption leading too an unfortunate fate. . . )
5: The Porygon phone in Pokemon Masters is made by Silph Co. while the Rotom phone was introduced through Devon Corp. (Bassically pokemon's version of Apple vs Android)
first one makes total sense, i can see the fact that the trains are powered by klinks as the reason the train station is called gear station
Except MissingNo only glitches up Pokemon League data and items. Glitch City is an unrelated glitch.
That fourth one is really dark....
I dunno if there’s anything contradictory to my hc but I like to think that the reason we don’t see mega evolution is because it was discovered that mega evolution causes Pokémon a lot of pain. So most regions have it banned from being used. :>
Eh, in canon iirc they use the energy differently. There's nothing saying they couldn't have banned using Mega Energy that way, or limited it to safe ones (Pokken allows some Megas, while other ones don't get new Megas, using the energy as super attacks instead).
Dynamax, Aeos, Z-moves, Synergy Bursts, it's all variations of the same energy or process of channeling energy. Evolution stones too (in the anime they show that Mega Stones are formed when Evolution Stones are mutated due to focusing Synergy, or Mega Energy, through them; this could also be similar to how Z Crystal's are formed, and may be how the Red and Blue and, in HG/SS, Jade Orbs work, as well as the Meteorite in the Delta Episode. The Dynamax Energy seems to be released by Eternamax, though the method is roughly the same, assuming one cannot use Synergy to Dynamax)
More like the mega stones are the combined souls of all the same species that were sacrificed and once used not only causes the power spike from evolving but also causes the pokemon to react more violently due to all the anger or grudges the souls have
@@bolt_beam same how on earth did they get mew DNA besides now that they have it they can make clones and possible many were failiures and varient failiures and thats how we get the X and Y varients they are unfunctional by themselves but combined with the functioning base mewtwo it now can exist
My personal headcanon is that Red and his rival Blue at some point got married as adults (whether it being a platonic or romantic marriage) and that the trip to Alola was also their honeymoon. Idk, it just makes me happy
Oww, that's so sweet
I like this idea!
Yes
gay
i love how this is one ship that most people can agree makes perfect sense even if they don't care too much for it
I headcanon that Selene (Moon) personality type is ESFP and you could see her walking around Alola talking to literally every single person she meets and she would be that person that would death stare or creep a person out if they talk about a dark secret she has.
That would explain her lifeless smile.
Edit: A headcanon of mine is that Ghastly can morph the gases surrounding it into arms. Hence why it can learn moves like Ice Punch.
For the arceus one (spoilers)
Arceus gives you a piece of him because you've proved yourself worthy.
Arceus isn't a false God. It's just not all of him
Thank you for putting that Arceus spoiler warning because I still haven't played it 😭
It could still be Arceus isn't an all-powerful creator god. At most we see them make one egg, which uses some sort of magic circle; if one copied the circle, could a mere mortal possibly make Pokemon eggs too?
Yeah, I don’t think it’s necessary to define a god by a Christian definition as an all powerful thing that can curb stomp everyone.
Plenty of people throughout history have worshiped creator gods that can make a universe but are still killable, so why can’t Arceus be like that and still be the true creator of the Pokémon world?
Idea: the creation trio and mew are all parts of Arceus. When they were birthed, arceus was an all-powerful being. Perhaps, they looked like beta arceus. To lighten the load, they split themselves into 5 Pokémon. The creation trio made the universe itself, while mew scouted space for a suitable home base; once it was found, mew created the unown and began populating the planet with their help. Meanwhile, Arceus oversaw everything, and created mount coronet to be their home.
The Macargo thing is misinformation, 18000 f is the *surface* of the sun, not the core, which is about ~27000000 fahrenheit
By the way, it's safe-ish to be quite near Macargo, sooooo...
Another thing, it is shown in the anime that Rapidash has this weird power to not burn people they trust, it might not apply to Slugma's evolution, but who knows
Yeahhhh, one of my friends pointed this out and I was like whoops-
And yeah, I could see the Rapidash thing applying to Magcargo
If Muk can control its stench, Magcargo can choose not to burn the world.
Still probably an insane exaggeration, but still.
It has the magic power to turn off convection
my headcanon is that the games are made in-universe based on Ash's adventures and he's a celebrity for his travels in all the regions
In other words the games we play exist in the anime and they are made based on Ash's life
I like to think that Piers does eventually go on to pass on the Spikemuth gym to Marnie so he can better focus on his music career, I also think that while he's still in Spikemuth, on occasion he likes to give some treats to all the galarian zigzagoons/linoones in the city and he ends up just eating goldfish or something like that for dinner instead lol. It's kinda just his way of giving back to the pokemon in his hometown.
i've got a bunch of hc's but here's some of my favorites
- Emmet is a horrible cook so Ingo's been slowly teaching himself how to cook
- Paldea's general shape is 100% based on Spain but the towns are a jumble of European nations (like that one town with the Sunflora statue looks a lot like the Netherlands)
- all the anime we have exist in the pokemon universe and Ash likes JJBA
- Prof. Sycamore was Not Okay (TM) for several months post-Team Flare. He gets emotional around male Pyroar now because they remind him of Lysandre
Okay, you NEED to play Legends Arceus. If I had a nickel for every time a facility boss was thrown across space/time and their memory was wiped, I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
And after seeing all of these angsty animations on RUclips, it's my headcanon that the other subway bro is driving himself insane while trying to look for his twin.
Also, I don't care that it's not in the dub, everyone from Galar, except the folks from Spikemuth and Gloria, have British accents, with the latter being Scottish.
True, I didn't think of that. I really hope they follow up on both Ingo and Anna

The whole Arceus being weak thing and why you can catch it is casually explained by Arceus himself in the newest game. The reason why is because it isn’t Arceus, like Arceus creates weaker duplicates of itself and allowed the player to hold onto one of Arceus’ “fragments” we have never seen Arceus at its highest potential, we have only ever seen pieces it has allowed us to have.
One more for the road. A lot of Allister's behavior is similar to other introverted children of his apparent age(12-14) on the autistic spectrum. The repetitive speech/movement. How awkward he is in social settings during his episode in Twilight Wings. He probably doesn't like looking other people in the eyes, which contributes to him wearing his mask. The fact that he startles so easily when around other people. And even the fact that he seems to understand Pokemon better than humans, and is more comfortable around the former.
When he first introduced himself, I personally had the impression that he keeps his voice quiet, especially because he is literally wearing a Shy Guy mask. This was confirmed in both the main anime and Twilight Wings.
When I realized this, it made him more adorable to me. (In a little brother way.) I'm high-functioning autistic and identify as an introvert. Fortunately, some people helped me come out of my shell throughout high school. It seems the player character does the same for Allister in Shield.
Yesssss, my first thought when I saw him was, "He has to be on the spectrum!"
- Fellow autistic and introvert
Espeon always looked like Blaze the Cat to me
Why did you have to point that out. Now I can't unsee it
New head cannon aquired: the dimension blaze came from is the pokemon universe and she’s an Espeon
Had these headcanons:
-Team Rocket was somehow able to get into the Indigo Plateau so many times in season 1 because Giovanni had some people working on the inside
-Tobias was an agent for the Pokemon League Association like that one Nurse Joy with a Latias or an Interpol Agent like Looker and the reason he was going through the Gyms so quick was because he was trying to find any Team Galactic members/spies, which is also how be had access to multiple Legendaries
-Ash keeps coming back from death because he saw Ho-oh after a near death experience and was blessed by its Sacred Ash item
-Reason why Ash seemed to regress in Unova was because Unova is Pokemon World America and he was struggling with the language, which made it difficult to learn about the Pokemon without using the Pokedex
-Because he had a car, most of the time Gary is seen is during his victory lap with his cheerleaders and he only challenged the Viridian City Gym was because it is the supposed strongest gym in the region
-Brock gets depressed over Professor Ivy because he never stood a chance with her: she's a lesbian
-Since it's mentioned by N in the BW anime that 2 years before was when Team Plasma was at its peak of activity, this explains why Ash was able to find starters in the Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh region so easily
-Espeon and Umbreon are more common in Johto because it is less urbanized and people have to work together and befriend their Pokemon more. Leafeon and Glaceon are more common in Sinnoh due to how quickly the weather changes with the seasons. Sylveon is more common in Kalos because generations of breeding in a region filled with Fairy Types let fairy moves enter the gene pool and it adapted
-The reason you can find underleveled but fully evolved Pokemon in Alola is because or tourists and their radios playing that evolution forcing sound during the Lake of Rage incident
-The reason Mirage Island is so rare in-game is because it is hidden by a mirage itself and weather conditions have to be perfect for it to show up
-Aether Paradise is stationed in Alola because it was the region most effected by people releasing non-native Pokemon during Team Plasma's time
I don’t really have many headcanons for other characters other than my favorite so
-Raihan and Leon swap hats from time to time, also one time raihan stole Leon’s main hat and freaked him out
-Raihan doesn’t wear socks
-Nessa listens to Doja Cat and Tyler the Creator (Raihan introduced her to tyler)
So about that, 'What if he gave Ash the wrong Pikachu?' one- In the X&Y Anime there was an episode where Ash switched places with an Ash from another reality, and their Pikachu where two very different Pokemon. The Ash that we didn't know had a stronger more aggressive Pikachu, while the Ask we know had one that was much more tame. Also, In the Journeys Anime The once again hopped world's but I don't remember exactly what the Pikachu over there was like, but It's very Possible that Oak could've given Ash lots of different Pikachu's over Different Dimensions. Who knows, maybe Pikachu decided a lot of what that world is like.
My headcannon is the Ash/Ho-oh theory. Makes sense, is wholesome, uses lore, and is a lot more tidy than the coma theory
I like to think that Pokemon in boxes all share this one big room. How the room looks is dependent on the background you choose for the box. Pick a fancier background the room is fancier simple as that. It also allows me to think that my Pokemon actually interact with each other inside the box.
My headcanon for SV is that the two protagonists (Florian and Juliana) are twins with Florian being shy and timid while Juliana is energetic and joyful. Florian would definitely do Victory Road because he has a crush on Nemona and Juliana would want to have adventures with Arven
My Arcues headcannon is that he allows you to catch you by not using its full power when you fight it, like, it can break out of the Master Ball with ease, but doesn't because you seem worthy
My personal headcanon is that Red is mute. I don’t care much for Masters.
red saying "………" is a fill in the blanks kinda thing
Red is possibly mute,but since he talked in PME(Pokemon Masters Ex) l’d likely say he’s more selective mute hence he also speaks in the games. And more info gathered up,he only likely speaks in the ingame battles cuz thats the only way he can communicate through his pokemon. But still,that doesnt correct your headcanon! I’m just sharing mine. :)
@@polarsky.polarbearI always had the headcannon Red was autistic so this is going straight into my brain box
I have this headcanon have that pokemon have the same or very similar ambitions to a lot of trainers. As in most of them hear stories of the champions' pokemon as kids and want to one day be caught by a future champion and go on many great adventures. I also like to think that once they reach a certain level they start to get a lot of confidence an get picky with trainers wich is one reason why they become harder to catch.
Somewhat verified in the wild area of Galar and in Legends Arceus. Wild pokemon can and will kick your ass. Not your pokemon's ass, in the latter game it's YOUR ass they can kick, too. Pokemon love fighting. There was a whole thing where people would post videos of pokemon in the wild area chasing the player.
Personally my head canon for Pokedex entries are that most of them were originally written a while ago so most of them are more myth than reality and only recently have scientists been more accurate with their examininations. I mean even in modern pokemon it still is extremely dangerous to make a Pokemon mad and examining pokemon constantly would probably make a few of them more than aggitated. As well some of them could be left in legends that are too interesting to replace like Volcarona replacing the sun
Headcannon: Gloria couldn't stop swearing in her voice lines for Masters so they dubbed over her voice.
I always get attached to NPCs in Pokémon so I have my own lore for many trainers. Here they are:
1. This is sad but, my favourite gym leader is Falkner. In BW2 in world tournament he says something about his dad watching him from above, and many people interpret it that his dad is dead, but I always thought that he actualy left him, and Falkner belives that if he could be good enough, his dad will see. So the headcanon backstory of Falkner goes like this: Falkner was mainly rased by his mom who was some kind of pristess in Sprout Tower, and his parents wanted him to take her role when he grow up. When he was in his late teens his mother died, and his father was depressed and left him. He never truly known his dad so he only had the expectations his mother told him. He also can use a bow (just because he has arm bracers and prep blue haired anime girl vibe )
2. I think Bede was born in Unova. Rose addopted him from unovian orfanage because taking an orfan would worm up his image, but he specificly traveled over sea for it because he was scared to accidently be conected to some disfuncional galarian familly. This headcanon oryginated because Bede’s theme has gen 5 vibe.
There is technically voice acting in Pokemon. Rei/akari will sometimes make noises when they fall, roll, or get knocked out
You wanna get technical, they've had voice acting as early as Yellow
Really? How?
@@denkikaminari4314 I believe he's referring to Pikachu's "pika pika!" noises in that game?
@@grapegardens9923yup
One of the first funny experiences I had in PLA was having Rei roll into cover and going “Wait. That was Link’s wordless grunt.”
The issue with Arceus is it's absolutely a god, but being a creator god doesn't inherently give you omnipotence or complete control, and a lot of people seem to assume that it does for some reason. Just because the Abrahamic god is like that doesn't mean that's the case for everything. And yeah I know "omnipotent" is its ability in Conquest but it just gives it an improved dodge.
It's entirely possible the ability was named by a human, who saw them dodge a lot and, combined with the whole creator god thing, assumed they were omnipotent.
It's also important to know omnipotent isn't all knowing, it's all powerful. To a mortal, any god could appear omnipotent.
@@gluttonousgoddess Possibly
I still hear people referring to Arceus with the are-see-us pronounciation and to that I tell them this: In legends arceus, you get an arc phone. If you follow the same pronounciation as arceus, you get the arse phone.
Anyway here's my headcanon: Ingo actually does remember what happened before legends arceus, he's just blocking it out so that he doesn't miss his twin brother, friends or partner pokemon. He doesn't want to feel these negative emotions so instead of facing them head on, he tries to pretend that they aren't real. I mean look at his face in game. Is that the face of a man without any burdens? He looks like he's trying repress something and isn't tellng anybody so that they don't remind him, leading to them saying he "has amnesia"
Ok but consider: calling it an Arse Phone sounds stupidly funny. XD
"Arse" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember it as “arc” as in “archangel.”
But now that I know more about “Reincarnated into a Pokemon World With My Smartphone,” I have more pneumonic devices!
I don't care which one is "correct" you will catch me dead before I pronounce it like "aRkEuS". Ar-see-us sounds way better and also, arse phone sounds way funnier
Actually, it's pronounced Arkoos
I forgot where, but i've read that arceus is not like, actually him, it's just little bit, his avatars. Which explains why he's so weak and can be captured by a human, he's okay with it especially since it's not actually him
Sorry for the he instead of it. I'm french, in french neutral is masculine and i don't wanna edit my comment 😭
It's confirmed in Legends Arceus.
I always wonder what younger Giovanni looked like, my head cannon is that Giovanni had the most rock bottom glow down after he had Silver or Giovanni looked like that from his childhood. Either way Game freak has two options, show a younger version of Giovanni in a newer Pokemon title or give us Silver's mom.
when thinking of " Younger Giovanni looks exactly like Silver."
I'll like to think after Silver seeing pictures of Giovanni in his youth and now, Silver low-key fears of looking like his dad.
In some images of Silver before the heart gold and soul silver remakes he was shown to have brown hair like Giovanni In the Anime. In conclusion Silver being the angst anime boy that he is dyed his hair red. ( probably had a death match between him and Maxie for the last red hair dye.)
Was Silver basically homeless through out the entirety of the Gold and Silver games?
Imagine Ingo coming back to Nimbasa city dressed like the way he is from legend of Arceus, only to know that he was only gone for a week.
( I support the Emmett fights Arceus and Volo with his bare hands after he gets Ingo back theory as well.)
sorry if its to much.
The manga How I Became A Pokémon Card has a chapter about a kid trying to save a wild Persian, and the kid turns out to be a young Giovanni, so we do have a canon idea of what he looked like. There's also a shot of him as a teenager with uh...well he's got long hair and a trenchcoat and looks like a goddamn mall ninja. It's hilarious.
Take a look at Ariana from hgss and compare her design to silver. she has got to be his mom.
Headcanon: N _is actually_ a more direct descendent from the original rulers of Unova (because they were said to have talked with Pokémon I’m pretty sure), and Ghetsis is either a much less direct descendent, or just a freaking liar. More importantly, however, Ghetsis knew that N could talk to Pokémon because he was a descendent of Unovan Royalty.
the comment about pokeballs made me realize that I always imagined pokemon stored in a pc were just data, the pokemon comprised of the data are in a state of unconsciousness, dreaming maybe. when taken out of the pc, the pokemon are restored to a physical format and are awake and aware, even when in their pokeballs. I always assumed that pokemon stayed in their pokeballs because they wanted to take a break and rest up for the next battle.
Pokémon in the Boxes are conscious since the memory feature in SwSh shows that they remember interacting with other Pokémon in the same Box as them.
@@TheRedSmarty good to know, I was unaware of that feature. I don't play swsh much
My headcanon is that before Red and Blue went to Alola, his hair was jet black and a little bit longer. Back then he thought it looked so cool and made him look super hot and mysterious, and Blue hated it. Red decided to dye his hair brown and cut it because he wanted to get out of his edgy teen phase (and also because Blue thought it would be funny).
I also like to think that the reason why Red and Blue went to Alola was because Blue slightly missed Red (no matter how much he wanted to deny it) and wanted him to get out of Mt Silver for once. It's also pretty funny to think of Blue dragging Red away from Mt Lanakila and Red desperately trying to go there.
I just have this random as shit headcanon that Colress after Neo Team Plasma is defeated in pokemon bw2 he takes the ship, just goes to everyone, tells them they've disbanded (he did do all this besides the next thing), and he just went "we're going on a vacation to alola everyone!"
I also just headcanon N is a Zoroark seeing certain stuff like N being capable to understand and speak to pokemon, he doesn't like people that much, I mean he was raised by them before being taken in and seeing as Zoroarks are pretty against humans, I mean fuck if you use this memory device to view N's zoroarks memories you get one of N's memories, also N's appearance with his hair.
Just a lot that makes me feel like I can headcanon N is probably a Zoroark without thinking I'm being stupid
@@UmbraticStickerz I also buy into the Zoroark theory, it just makes too much sense.
N and silver were friends as kids but as they grew up, they gained more responsibilities and so they stopped talking.
After N ran away and started exploring the world, he refused to explore johto because he was afraid to find his old friend with the same fate he was supposed to have.
I've got a truck load more but this is one of my favorite
My headcannon:
There are multiple of each species of legendary Pokémon, but that they’re the offspring of the originals, which the legends are based on. In the case of Mewtwo, it’s instead that multiple people recreated the same process that creates Mewtwo from the surviving research from its original creators. The anime depicts a baby Lugia, which is the basis of this theory. In the case of Mewtwo, considering groups like Team Plasma created (what would be known as) Genesect, it didn’t seem too far fetched that they could create another Mewtwo.
I have a headcanon similar to the one about the pokedex being written by children. It an idea I came up with when I was feeling nostalgic for hgss. The idea is that the pokedex is a world wide project started by oak. Oak's dream is to catch all pokemon for his pokedex but it would nearly impossible for one person alone. So instead he convinces other regional professors to help him by having them hand out pokedexes that only show that region's pokemon to trainers. When he says you caught all pokemon, he referring to the regional dex and trainers that have proven themselves by completing the regional dex are allowed access to the national dex so that they may continue capturing pokemon if they continue their journey by heading to a new region. This is also the reason why dex entries are different from game to game, the national dex is constantly being updated by trainers and their research.
I have a few:
Ingo returns to his own time after 2 months of being in Hisui.
N gets all of Ghetsis's Pokémon after the events of B2/W2. He got his Bouffalant and Bisharp after B/W, since Ghetsis does not use them in B2/W2.
Guzma does not drink any alcohol whatsoever, it reminds him of his abusive father.
Flint is a very good listener.
Wallace's fashion design is based off the clothing of Ancient Sootopolian.
Volo is immortal, which he was granted after his first encounter with Giratina. His left eye is also like Giratina's eye, having a black sclera and red iris.
N and Silver bond over having terrible dads, the two are practically brothers.
Plumeria knew Guzma since childhood.
Cyrus would someday escape the Distortion World.
Maxie does not have good sight without his glasses.
Steven has a basement in his house where he stores his most valuable rocks.
Bea and Marshal are cousins.
Grimsley's gambling addiction began when he was 20. A little while after the events of S/US/M/UM, he rejoins the Elite Four.
Courtney is a robot.
Ghetsis is locked away in an insane asylum on a remote island.
If Guzma doesn't drink alcohol then what are all those bottles in his room? Or do you mean post-Skull?
@@BJGvideos I imagine they were left there by the previous owners.
I wish that Cyrus died
My headcanon: people in the pokemon world canonically speak the language their regions are based on. people in kanto speak japanese, people in kalos speak french, etc.
we get to choose the language only for player convenience, but they might be speaking a different language in-universe
The head canon about Gloria being Scottish made me think about my own head canon regarding the Gen 8 protagonist's backgrounds.
My headcanon for Gloria is that they grew up helping their mum and Hop's family with raising the Wooloo, which caused her to have to develop a very assertive side to try to get the sheep to stay in their pens and not wander off. However, when she’s not in a bad mood, she's generally a pretty sweet individual who took up knitting using the Wooloo roll from her farm. Maybe even the outfit she wears is stuff she made herself, and she could’ve added the wool onto Hop's jacket as thanks for a favour or something.
As for Victor, I imagine that they actually didn’t grow up in Postwick. I headcanon them more as the kind of guy that grew up in a particularly well-off household He’s not exactly a snooty rich kid, but he has a tendency to forget what stuff is meant to be "expensive" by normal standards. Also, unlike Gloria, he's a bit of a pushover, and is pretty wispy-washy when it comes to life goals.
Taking the headcanon a bit further, I sometimes picture the idea that the two could even be cousins, with Victor being the younger of the two, causing Gloria to coddle him a bit. Maybe Victor's side of the family were the ones to help Leon originally become champion in the first place, and they became wealthy through that.
10:02 Oh yeah this defiantly feels like Gold's counterpart in the Pokemon Manga would also do lmao
Playboy 😂
Personally I have the headcanon that Chairman Rose is the Galar Protag’s deadbeat father. Idk he just sorta has the vibe i guess. Like he literally invites them to a celebratory meal after they beat Nessa only to then immediately skip out on them which is like PEAK deadbeat behavior I think.
My headcanon was that the Lake trio were completely conscious when helping team Galactic. They did it because they were threatened and told that they would be killed. Then, when they were no longer worried about Team Galactic, Mesprit became extremely spiteful to Cyrus and summoned Giratina.
My headcanon is that Ghastly can morph the gases surrounding its body into arms so it can use moves like Ice Punch.
A pokerus pokemon already exists, it's called Deoxys
My personal head cannon is that Mew came first form an alternate dimension through an Ultra Wormhole and then an Arceus egg came through a different wormhole hatched and then they just decided to create life and the universe.
the Oak timeloop thing is canon, Oak found him chewing on the wires under his lab.
my headcanon is that all energy from pokimon is from a nuther dimenchon explaning all phisics braking moments
5:41 "I shall give you a part of myself, even though it's still slower than an Electric Ball, it's still a minuscule fraction of my true power, with a bst of 720" -arceus?, legends postgame.
For the dex entries, I've always seen it as the professor is the one to make them. They already know of these pokemon (or else what have they been doing for a living). So as a way to get new kids to go out and have an adventure (and want to actually catch everything), they have really cool sounding "science" for each entry. It may not be accurate, but it will interest a child. So when they catch a pokemon, it gets scanned into the dex and that pre-made dex entry is unlocked. If they used accurate entries, a kid might get bored when their lava slug isn't really hot enough to melt your face. Big numbers sound cooler, so they exaggerate to keep the kid wanting to discover more.
I think the end of the Legends Arceus game does a great job of explaining Arceus as a god vs as a pokemon, but since you haven't played it, I won't spoil it.
5:30 Some endgame/postgame PLA Spoilers, and I know this is just a headcanon but
It was confirmed there that the Arceus we all know is just a "piece" of Arceus itself, a small piece of it's TRUE power. And the appearance Arceus takes is most likely a form mortals could comprehend, since we did see a glimpse of what seems to be Arceus's "true form" at the beginning of the game.
My head canon is that Pokémon battling is less like ‘forcing animals to fight’ and more like ‘this is enrichment for them because if you don’t do something to help them release their abilities they could hurt themselves/ others’. Battling isn’t the only way for Pokémon to release their magical energy but it’s one of the more accessible options. This is why trainers exist, you are training them to control and hone their power. It’s a symbiotic relationship (in most cases, jerks exist unfortunately) it keeps the Pokémon and the public in general safe and also provides a way to get stronger.
(This headcanon is also why I refuse to enter the competitive scene. Having certain Pokémon be better battlers makes sense from a gameplay perspective but personally? I hate it. Pokémon are your friends and the game is constantly telling you this so I’m not discarding my buddy just cause his nature isn’t optimal for battles. No shade to the competitive scene, just not how I play)
XD that first headcannon i incredibly agree with, basically the pokedex is like a wiikepidea about pokemon that anyone can change and the profesors just need to give the approval either by finding it funny enough or a unique way to describe that mon in their region
I have a couple about the Striaton Triplets:
1. Cress is slightly taller that Cilan and Chili, hence why his trousers seem to be slightly shorter.
2. Cress is the eldest triplet, Cilan is the middle and Chili is the youngest.
I never actually thought of Gloria (or Victor) as being Scottish, not because of any personal feelings towards the idea, but because of what little dialogue we did get: certain dialogue options will have the MC greet other characters with the word "wotcher," a casual greeting typically associated with the Cockney dialect, which had origins in working-class London before spreading to other parts of the country.
For the Arceus one, the answer is in Pokémon Infinity (even though as a fangame it's not canon) where it's revealed that Arkhaos is the creator of the multiverse and the father of all the Arceus
I think I have a plausible explanation for Gloria having an English accent. Her teacher in school, or likely a private tutor, spoke with the same accent and she just picked it up because she heard it so much. similarly, one or both of her parents speak with the same accent, so she naturally speaks like that because she hears it the most, as people tend to spend more time at home than at school or work. Maybe both her educator and one or both of her parents spoke like that.
My headcanon is that people are much more durable to physical attacks, maybe due to evolution living next to fire breathing dragons and god, explaining why ash can take charizards’s flamethrower or pikachu’s thunderbolt
it’s cool that you read all the comments. honestly it’s pretty crazy that i can move my fingers and letters are sent over cables and end up as light projected into your eyes. it’s almost like i’m touching your eyeballs haha
anyways nice video, keep up the good work!
my little crack headcannon is that all the legendaries are like a dysfunctional family, the alolan legendaries are the concerned neighbors, and arceus is the senile grandpa. arceus needs to be babysat because he does wild and stupid stuff when not babysat. lugia is so tired of babysitting arceus, they throw poor old grandpa around between them like a game of hot potato. they're all stupid every last one
my personal head canon is:
I think Unova and Alola region are one single region that separated at some point, here is my reason
1. they mirrored each other
- both Unova and Alola region were based of the United States, New York and Hawaii respectively
- their lore ties in their mascot box art, which can be fused later in the next couple of games
- N and Lillie are the key to unlock the Legendary Box Arts because of their relationship with the said Legends, while player of each region can obtain one of theirs as well, it is heavily implied that dating N in Ferris Wheel and dating Lillie in Exeguttor Island is NECESSARY to unlock said Legends
- in their vanilla gameplay, both player are not battling their respective Champion of the region, and their companion (N & Lillie) actually left and gone after the credit rolls, not to mention these companions are having quite harsh life because they have an abusive parent (Ghetsis & Lusamine)
speaking of N & Lillie
2. N & Lillie are related, but not by blood
- so many fans theorize that they are Pokémon in disguise, but in fact, no they aren't, they are pure human being
- remember, Ghetsis adopted N prior to BW games, he was with wild Pokémon back then, I believe those Pokémon are actually belongs to the Aether Paradise during Mohn's era that was released back to the wild after their successful treatment
- Ghetsis was actually a freelancer who work for the Aether Paradise, he dislike his client who always not giving him enough resources and incomes, so he betrayed and join together with the royal family of Unova to become one of the Sages
- Ghetsis's other adopted children, Anthea and Concordia, which are N's real siblings in my head canon, are actually a member of Aether Paradise during that era as well, they were adopted by Ghetsis because of their ability that works well for his kingdom
- Lillie came into contact with Nihilego at the same time as Mohn's disappearance, and I believe this is the work of Team Plasma to avenge the company, and Mohn is brainwashed and left behind in the Poképalego
- Lusamine's obsession with Pokémon collection actually become the source of education by Ghetsis to teach N the lesson, that Pokémon should be freed from opression
- Lusamine herself is actually quite arrogant and selfish, even before the disappearance of Mohn, and I believe Aether Paradise was build by her idea to contain a lot of Pokémon from different regions, in order to "preserve" them, but this idea is changed by Mohn to be more like Poképalego
- things just getting worse with the appearance of the Ultra Beasts
speaking of Ultra beast
3. both Unova and Alola had contact with Ultra Beasts at one point
- it is heavily implied that Team Plasma was on urge on something, that made themself created Genesect, a mass of them, and I believe this is to counteract the Ultra Beast that one appeared in Unova, same as how Aehter Foundation created 3 Type:Full to counteract the Ultra Beast, but failed as the result
- Professor Brunet was working for Dream Radar project in Unova, and in this Dream Radar, player are actually low key travelled through a different dimension, and I believe this dimention is a paralel to the Ultra Wormhole, which is why she moved to Alola to observe these beast from their home region
- not only Brunet, but Professor Fennel was actually working on Dream related project as well, that also made players to actually able to travel across dimension
- the inspiration they made for the Pokéstar Studio films was actually from the Ultra Beasts, you can clearly see from their design perspectives
- in Alola, we have the Tapus to protect the region from these threats, but what about Unova? we have the Swords of Justice, yes they hate humans, but it is also implied that they were training to fight something, and I believe it was to prepare to fight the UB
- Colress involvement in both sequels answers it all
and since we are talking about sequels, last but not least
they are both involved in Time and Space respectively
- Black & White 2 took place 3 years after, and Ultra Sun & Moon took place in alternate timeline where UB & human fusion didn't occurs
- Caitlin, Frontier Brain from Sinnoh and Anabel, Frontier Brain from Hoenn made their return as an adult
- Red appeared and can be challanged in those games
so in short, in my head canon, N and Lillie are couple
That is a huge write up
Mine is that Leon isn’t bad with directions, but pretends to be so Hop feels better. Also that Hops parents are not fond of Hop, which it seems is a pretty common notion.
Also if Ultra Necrozma stood in front of a mirror, it’d absorb its own reflected light until it became so hot it’d melt the mirror.
And Arven is an oblivious bisexual. Like the way he manhandles MC in The Way Home and showers them with complements, please! The boy probably has both Mommy and Daddy issues, and doesn’t even know what love feels like. Give that poor boy some love!
So mine is similar to the multiple legendaries headcannon, but slightly different
What if instead of there being just straight up multiples, the ones that we see and catch (as players) are all avatars for the legendary pokemon. Arceus, for example, shows us their true form at the beginning of PLA, but later when we catch him, it's an avatar they sent to aid us in protecting Hisui
I’ve been making a write up for a unified Pokémon world and this is the method I was using.
Hell, we know that Arceus has his own divine realm and can spawn avatars, so why not include Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Xerneas, Yveltal, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina in this list?
My head canon is that galar has the hardest gym challenge in the Pokémon world and that’s why the world coronation series is Held there, why Leon is the strongest trainer and that gym leaders like bea and Raihan do well in competition when the rest of the strongest trainers are elite four members excluding volkner who was expressed to be a extremely strong trainer yet Raihan was not only above him but I’d assume that piers and Gordie because it’s assumed Gordie will be the next galar champion and it’s assumed piers is stronger then him because of the gym order
I have a head canon involving Cyrus’s Crobat. Golbat requires a high friendship stat to evolve into Crobat but Cyrus states that he sees Pokémon as “extensions of his power” not friends. I think that while Cyrus doesn’t care for his Pokémon like friends or partners, his Pokémon still care about him. This would explain how Crobat had evolved despite Cyrus’s lack of emotion.
my headcanon is that Leon let us win in Sword and Shield. With all the hype about him being this undefeated champion just to be pretty easy compared to other champions just doesn't add up for me lore wise.
One headcannon for each Team Star Boss:
Giacomo owns at least one electric guitar, despite not knowing how to play it.
Mela is afraid of deep water and hates the rain
Atticus has auditioned for the school play before and was thrilled to be the villain
Ortega says "frick" regularly
Eri nearly broke Ortega's arm in an arm-wrestling contest and still feels guilty.
(Bonus) Penny sneaks her old DS into class and plays it when she's bored.
Reasoning:
1. He just would.
2. Fire type.
3. Theater kid.
4. He already says heck
5. Dunno
6. I've done it before
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet! The region kinda looks like a mix of Italy and Spain
It's based on Spain.
@@shinybearevidra With more information it's more right to say it is Spain, but 4 month ago it wasn't that obvious
@@SwapOnTheShore yeah, sorry, I forgot to look at the date. You're right.
@@shinybearevidra Don't worry, it can happen all the time
For the Arceus one, I could see the Arceus we see in the games to merely be an avatar that the real Arceus uses to intreact with the world.
7:38, they actually did try, Gen5 had voice acting, the Village Bridge theme has singing, Colress’s theme has a countdown, and Ghetsis’s theme has chanting
8:04 you can actually watch some Pokemon comics on RUclips and Gloria having her accent
my headcanon is when you accidently one-shot legendries they don't faint just teleport or fly away
A headcanon that I have is that after fighting Chairman Rose and seeing Leon fail to catch Eternatus, he is on his last pokeball. He was likely using every type of pokeball he had. I choose to believe this because he wouldn't bring 1 pokeball and hope for the best, and that most people who play pokemon have likely experienced this as well, praying that the legendary stays in the ball
Headcanon #1: Ash and Red would have actually a wholesome friendship and do funny stuff together like trying to dig out a Diglett. Both would be unsuccessful but would laugh it out heartily. They would inspire each other's battle styles.
Headcanon #2: Snivy seems like the type who would try and get comfy with Ash just to trigger Bayleaf. Not out of malice but playfulness and gratitude over having a Trainer who chased after them both.
Headcanon #3: Dawn's Piplup, Ash's Oshawott, Clemont's Chespin and Serena's Pancham seem like the crew that would win over an island's Pokémon population in a PMD-like adventure.
Headcanon #4: Trainers in games refuse to accept flexibility in moves's usage in a bratty manner and you're forcefully complying to the rules. E.g: Hitting a flying target with Bonemerang.
Headcanon #5: Trainer's Pokémon levels, yours excluded, reflect their potential but also how seriously they take the fight. Lance's Dragonite being at level 40 means Lance is holding out on his opponents ; he's fighting as if his Dragonite was at this level.
I think when a Pokémon gets into a poke the place around it is all it’s favorite things
I know this video is old as heck,but my headcanon is that missigno is a ultra beast that got corrupted while travelling to the og pokémon world. Also in Pokémon Masters Ex,Ethan has a pilot suit which my indicate that he became a pilot in the future
My favorite headcanon is that every single character in Pokemon games is autistic. Shorts Kid can't do pants because of sensory reasons, a lot of trainers have special interests that result in single-type teams, protagonists tend to be nonverbal, every trainer has specific dialogue scripts, and battles never require a quick reaction time
