Hey umm about the 3 legendary dogs in hoenn if I'm correct, your kinda wrong about that so if you go to the files of ruby and sapphire there's also a theme for the "rocket radio takeover" theme and a lot of people have said that these themes were just the devs testing out the new sound font for the gba if you still don't believe me, there was actually a hoenn opening in theme DP's files it was probably also the devs testing out the sound font for the DS
they did a pretty good job on the more obscure facts in the series there wasn’t a “Pokémon Red and Green were the first Pokémon games” kind of facts in there witch was great to see.
@@Garinovitch ohhhh gotcha oops of course dog wasn't an option you didn't say that lol thanks good to know! crystal version on gameboy was my favorite! i remember opening the box as a kid. such a unique experience!
@@joeman123964 They're all big cats. You can even verify this in Sword and Shield! Their walking animations give it away - felines and canines have different gaits - felines step with both legs on one side, then both legs on the other side, while canines step with legs on opposite sides. And all three of Raikou, Suicune, and Entei walk with a feline gait. And this is intentional, as other pokemon that are obviously canine, like growlithe/arcanine, boltund, etc., walk with a canine gait! Unfortunately, this means absol is a canine, which is too bad because I love cats, but I'll still love absol anyways!
I've seen that hiker on Mount Chimney so many times that I just never had a second thought about it. Interesting to know that the chance was actually pretty low to run into him
The main reason, I think, so few people saw them was that there's little reason to use the lift once you get Fly. I saw them a fair few times solely because I've played through Emerald a fair few times, but most people, playing it only once, could easily never see it.
I have been trying for years to figure out how I made Pikachu do that animation in Pokemon Yellow when I was a kid... thank you for telling me this. I thought I imagined it after all this time.
holy shit, me too!! I remember trying so hard to figure it out and giving up cause even on future playthroughs I couldn't recreate it, since I didn't know how it happened.
Me too. I almost freaked out when I saw it again and sent it to a friend that always said I lied about it. And today on this wonderful day i got to say one of my most dickish I TOLD YOU SO

Even such a little thing such as standing next to the kids in Icirrus city adding clapping sounds to the music really makes the world feel more alive. Gen 5 music do really hit different
imagine being the person with that shiny tailow and someone accidentally erases your save game or you lose the cartridge. could you imagine how much a one of a kind pokemon would sell for?
I won a pokemon blue game from a stop the light machine at a grocery store back when it came out and i lost it down a hole one day and never got it back :(

I'm so glad you mentioned the hiker climbing down the mountain. I remembered seeing them once and then never again in any replays, so I thought I was going crazy remembering something that wasn't actually there. Thanks for putting that fact in there!
People didn't know about the unova drums only playing while you're walking?? I used to get a kick out of running then stopping and then running again in little bursts to figure out why it did that lmao
I only knew two of those facts, definitely came in here like “Oh god, here comes the same things I’ve been hearing on every video similar to this”. Amazing job!
Same!! I went into this video holding up 10 fingers with an intention to put a finger down every time he said something I already knew lol. At one point I just put my hands down; what a pleasant surprise!
Berserk Gene is clearly a reference to Mewtwo, given it’s found where the entrance to the Unknown Dungeon/Cerulean Cave once was, and Mewtwo’s savage nature, contrasting that of Mew’s
Adding on to this (mild spoilers for both the movie and game versions of Detective Pikachu): - - - There is a rage inducing drug made using Mewtwo cells called R which, low and behold causes the drugged pokemon to exhibit higher levels of power in exchange for going out of control and berserk (also gives mild amnesia to Pokemon in the games making interviewing them tricky but not sure about that factor being a thing in the movie).
@@FaisLittleWhiteRaven Yes i remember playing the detective pikachu game and the first thing that i remembered was the berserk gene. I wish they used more pokémon lore like this in other games.
If I'm remembering my random facts right, if you transfer a Mewtwo from the GRBY games into the GSC games (only possible in the Japanese versions) then it'll arrive holding the Berserk Gene
@@FireFog44 Not only is transferring Pokémon through the Time Capsule from Gen I to Gen II possible in all regions (except Korea, as Gen I did not release there), Mewtwo is holding Brightpowder when passed from RGBY to GSC, not the Berserk Gene.
@@FaisLittleWhiteRaven Being the pokemon boomer I am, Pokemon GS were released after the first Pokemon Movie which explores Mewtwo's origins, basically being a clone designed as a weapon that goes on a rampage. Its pretty clearly a reference to the original Mewtwo capture spot and the genetic experimentation and rage fuelled spree associated with it.
Enigma Berries also make some of the best Poffin ingredients. They include the Dry flavour which is handy for getting a Milotic and doing well in Beauty category contests in D/P/Pt
Yeah, me too. I knew 3 (one of them which I learned literally yesterday) being the colosseum Vaporeon, walking drums and the enigma berry. Edit: Oh, and the hiker.
I actually remember something about the typing game. I might’ve actually had it when I got my DS. I don’t remember. But I feel like I definitely have heard of the typing one.
I remember seeing the typing game and I really wanted to get it, but my parents didn't in the end. And that's the only thing I knew about in this entire video lol
"He's the only rival to punch an evil team member" I think he's the only person who's punched and evil team member. If anything, though, that just makes Hugh cooler.
Back in the days of Crystal version, I actually did manage to soft-lock myself on Cianwood. Not only did I strand myself there with no pokemon able to learn surf, I also stranded myself without any that could learn fly. I did have an Abra that knew teleport. But Cianwood was the last pokemon center I'd used. I ended up having to restart my game. 20 years later I'm still embarrassed.
The very first time I played Pokémon Red I softlocked myself into a battle with a Bug Catcher on the way to Mt Moon. I'd caught a Metapod. He had a Metapod. I didn't know about Struggle at the time so I had to turn it off and restart because I hadn't saved at all since the beginning. A very frustrating Christmas Day.
Ironically, this is one of the only videos like this I've seen that actually has facts that it seems like most people hadn't already heard a million times lol
OMG! I saw the Mount Chimney hiker only once in my life as a kid and I kept having this memory, but I never saw them again and I started to think I just imagined it!! Good to see it was real!!
Same! I even thought it was some sort of Mandela effect! I used the cable car so many times trying to find the hiker again but never did after that one time.
"Hugh from Pokémon B2W2 is the only rival to actually punch an evil team member" *I never played B2W2 but now I feel obligated to hunt a copy down because that is beautiful*
@@Dragonessette1778 dam ur in the age of not experienced the great things in their primes. Ur now living the entertainment of everything being a downtrend as they would call it today.
6:03 This scene hurt me spiritually cause that's the EXACT way I found the Shiny Roselia that I no longer have cause I restarted the file without thinking after wiping to Candice (was a Nuzlocke). I miss my Modest Shiny Roselia that was hardcore carrying me in my run.... would've had the Roserade too which is one of my fave shinies.
The Park was open 4 Months, given the popularity Pokemon has, espeacially in Japan it it was very likely that someone got a shiny from there. Yet I believe it is also very likely that the pokemon wouldnt exist up to today anymore. Kinda sad. :/
As someone who’s just started playing white 2, I can definitely agree that he’s the best rival, dude such a homie, like in that one part in the sewers, dude just heals all your Pokémon after every battle and you don’t even gotta ask. What a god
I love Yancy so much, she’s adorable. Also Unova’s champion/star actor and Unova’s most popular female idol being in a relationship is an amazing power couple
@@BlueBoyPhin maaaan I love the idea of giving event pokemon special otherwise unnatainable moves. Iirc there was an event where tgis thing happened again and it gave stuff like ancientpower bulbasaur a squirtle with zap cannon and other things. If you make another video like this you could look into that
I was actually really confident I'd know all of them, but I actually only knew 3 or 4! It's really impressive how you managed to collect such rare info that a loser who spends more time on Bulbapedia than I do outdoors didn't know most of them.
Not sure why the RSE dead save battery factoid reminded me of this one weird instance when I was playing my Sapphire or Emerald version. I had just booted up my save file and began walking in the ashy grass when I encountered a shiny Spinda. I forget what exactly happened after (if I KO'd it or I accidentally turned off my game, etc.), but I reset my game right after, took the exact same path through the grass as I did before, and on the same tile I encountered a shiny Spinda again. Suffice to say I made sure to catch it this time *just in case*.
I don't recall specifics but Emerald in particular has a glitch when it comes to shiny frames [know this because Emerald was one of the first games I owned]. Makes sense that you'd encounter it again.
@@hawktalon7890 It's actually a glitch with the seed generator. Instead of the seed being random each time you start or reset the game, it's always set to 0. Meaning some Secret IDs will let you have shinies early when you start the game.
My first one was a shiny spearow in Pokemon Gold. I just wondered why this spearow had the same animation as the gyarados anf than catched it. Was looking it up and found out that it was called a shiny, lol. I also got the weird call from the prof. That I caught Pokerus in the same walkthrough.
I’m not gonna lie I never cared much for the registeel, regice, regirock trio but that time period thing blew my mind and makes me appreciate them a lot more now!! It’s so neat especially w/ the two newer ones added in
I actually knew the fact about the drums playing conditionally! I LOVE how gen V did their music. Different music for different seasons, towns with instrument players, even that one town that would add or subtract an instrument when you talked to one of the many players scattered around. Gen V man, Gen V.
Exactly, I plan on making a vid diving into why gen 5 is truly a masterpiece. Because the amount of care put into that game is truly unrivaled before or since. And a lot of it are changes like that, that don’t Jump out at you immediately but really help it feel immersive and alive. Something no other pokemon game has been able to 100% nail imho
The drum thing in gen 5 was one of my favorite touches ever!!! Especially with the gorgeous melody of the eastern Unova routes, I may or may not have teared up at it back in the day. And yet, as much as I loved BW2 (I even completed all of Pokestar Studios), I never knew about the girlfriend arc. I'm going for gen 5 shiny Gallade if I can help it some day
I knew about the girlfriend thing I just never did it enough to get a pokemon lol Every few days I'd go check up on her to see how she was doing xD I also completed the Pokéstar studio missions lol
7:25 Actually, the wild KO method is working as intended, people just didn't understand it. The more of a given Pokemon you KO, the higher the chance they have to be Brilliant Pokemon (represented by the weird yellow aura around them), which in turn gain increased Shiny rolls based on how your KO counter. Also, yeah, I *did* know about Emerald's broken RNG, I've abused it to Shiny hunt a good chunk of the dex there already = w= IIRC it's actually intentional, specifically to resolve problems presented by dead batteries- Emerald's RNG is static, but the seed is re-generated significantly faster, making it more or less unnoticeable... Unless you're Shiny hunting.
I knew about the “love interest” in B2W2 only because I desperately wanted a Spiritomb on my party, and looked up how to get it. Other than that and the RSE frame glitch, this was actually filled with things I don’t know. Great video!
@@SummonerArthur go to nimbasa city and look for a lost xtransceiver, then try to call it (it will start a chain of calls in specific spots in certain routes/areas, just try to search the wiki for the exact spots of you don't want to go in blind)
@@SummonerArthur I could’ve sworn I responded to this. It might have been deleted because I linked the wiki though. If you look up “Yancy” or “ Curtis”, you’ll find out how to meet up with them and trade with them. It’s a rather difficult process though
The johto music that went unused in Ruby and sapphire might have existed because they were used to test the soundfont before the actual soundtrack was written.
I always imagined the drum sound in the music in Gen 5 was just supposed to be their footsteps so when they stopped walking, the footstep sound stopped.
Cool video! Another interesting fact would have been that Jynx actually has two shiny forms depending on the region of your colo/XD. (same reasons as the change in the anime)
duuuuuude thats crazy!!! i didnt know that! itd be awesome to maybe collab with a bunch of pokemon Streamers/youtubers who are really knowledgeable about specific gens like you with that era! and im sure theres a decent amount of stuff you know about those games that 99% of pokemon fans dont know about!!
What I love about watching all these videos about obscure pokemon facts is that I learn that over the years I’ve played the games, I’ve had some really rare things happen to me without even knowing. Sure, I’ve never found a random shiny, BUT I’ve seen a hiker on Mt Chimney and I found a Munchlax in a honey tree after only 2 or 3 trees in Diamond, so I’m happy with that
Couple things. One, the Hiker thing I legitimately didn't know, that's freaking amazing. Two, very glad we're in agreement on Hugh. Three, _what did you just say about my boy Basculin._
First “top ten things you didn’t know” video where not only did I not know the majority of these fun facts but also were genuinely interesting like the tenticool or the shiny tailow
The drum thing was one of my favourite things I liked to show other people when I was younger! Id even stay on the route until the music had fully looped to hear it with and without the drumming
I actually knew about the gen 5 stuff. Gen 5 is my favorite pokemon game so I got tons of hours in it. But I find it SO interesting that something new was discovered in gen 4 remakes in 2020. That really makes me wonder if there are some new stuff waiting to be discovered
I read about Pokepark in a magazine as a kid and it was my dream to go to Japan and visit that park. I had no idea it only lasted a few months. I The statues shown in the magazine were so cool they even had a shiny Spinda statue.
I was a little skeptical about this video because it’s sorta an over done topic but I actually didn’t know a lot of these things. Good job on your research. Also I’m glad someone else out there thinks gen 5 was one of the best generations.
@@justsomewheel9379 I can distinctly remember people hating it when it first came out, which I thought was so strange because I adored it so much. People would crap on it for “lazy” pokemon
@@ethan_garrell46807 Yeah it was sorta like that thing where as soon as the game comes out they said "this game is trash!!!!!" until 10 years after its release and then suddenly it's great because people remember there's more to a game than its flaws and eventually the same will happen to the next 3 gens like how it's already starting to happen. This would be less of an issue if the pokemon fanbase wasn't one of the most tunnel minded fandoms I know but it is what it is I guess. What confuses me the most though is how people hated it for its pokemon designs. Because of all the flaws the game has designs is definitely not one of them considering a lot of people's favourites including mine came from it
... I have a few mystery dungeon games... OK i have blue rescue team, rescue team dx, explorers of darkness, gates to infinity and super mystery dungeon. I love the mystery dungeon games. I am a munchlax in darkness... also all of my mystery dungeon games are infact actually real and not pirated. I can play them on my 2ds and switch.
Honestly, I love obscure puzzles that require a lot of interaction, exploration, and thinking. So, the Regi puzzles were absolutely my jam, and I adored them. I’m also a fan of the spooky, and paranormal, so I really loved checking out Eterna Forest’s Haunted Chateau, and all of the creepy stuff you could see in there. I also couldn’t get over all of the postgame content available in X/Y, and OR/AS, it was amazing to me. I still need to catch up on the games, but I really am hoping for more content like that: mysterious, obscure, obtuse, and optional.
Woah. That outro. I really love how you've come to that conclusion all with your own vast knowledge, making the shiny Taillow hypothesis a new page in the history books of Pokémon fact videos... and leaving a question to be answered whenever it does. Congratulations
Wheres the Regional-Forms that FIX Evolution-Lines and/or give Credit to Pokemon who Need it? Yaaaa knooow: The Options that Regional Forms give? What about Skitty, who could need more Forms, including an Evolution where it does not lose its Cuteness?! Where is that? What about Dunsparce, which is on Fan's List for a new Evolution for Ages?
Shuckle is not the slowest Pokémon, it’s a level 1 regigigas with slow start, the regigigas’s speed stat will be come 3 Edit: Thanks guys, this is my most liked comment ever!
@@Jsthappytobehere He means that shiny tailow you get from the themepark event that came with featherdance not just any shiny tailow. Even I have a shiny swellow but not the one from that event. Tailow nor swellow can learn featherdance otherwise.
5:55 speed run strats right there. But yeah when they stopped doing things like that it shows a real decrease of passion, care, or something. Ikr. I wish they would bring back cool stuff like that
I knew about the music in Gen 5, absolutely loved it when I realized it back then. Such a nice little detail! Everything else was new though, and really cool to know!
I knew a couple of these (and am one of the lucky people to have an e-reader and berry cards) but the shiny Vaporeon, the gift Tentacool and the Mt. Chimney hiker thing were all new to me. Thanks for sharing, it's nice to hear some facts that are more obscure!
this comment section is entirely spot on, i subscribed instantly after this video. it was informative, exciting, reminiscent, and extremely wholesome. thank you for posting such awesome content!!
Oh damn I actually just found out about the tentacool gift pokemon a few weeks ago, the first thing I thought was "wait how does everyone get softlocked here??" Great vid
damn, a “facts you didn’t know” video that actually includes obscure facts... (also thank u for telling the truth about hugh and unova being the best rival & region. will sub for that)
I'll admit I didn't know rhydon was the first designed. If you told me it was a rock Pokemon I would've guessed Geodude... And I've played every pokemon game except past sun/moon
I actually did know about the Berserker Gene, but aside from that, you've done a fantastic job of getting facts I've never heard before. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it!
That’s interesting, didn’t know the Regis typing fact… I always thought they were just choosing all the typings weak to fighting when they made the original four Regis
Honestly same, I've been playing for less, about 9 to 11 years, for I am only 17, but I am still a pretty relative pokemon fan, but this was insane, he earned my sub as well
For your shiny vaporeon fact (or overall Colosseum / XD shinies): Wouldn't it be cool, if the pokemon did not have a fix shiny? That Charmander wouldn't be always yellow, or Pikachu always orange, but if shinies would get an completely random colour when you encounter one? While it would be cool, it could be pretty life ending too, because I for sure would try to get a blue colourerd Arcanine for the rest of my life
Subbed off this vid, love when you can see someone's enthusiasm so clearly through their video mixed with an awesome content style, great stuff all round
are we all going to ingnore the fact that was a SHINY BUDEW on 6:03 -6:04 2:37 hughs the best rival no no thats a fact I agree with you I started with black 2 when I was 5 1:48 SO NOSTALGIC
@@alishac5540 I shiny hunt I lot so I notice shiny pokemon quickly like my full odds shiny pikachu from lets go that is in my sword as a gmax shiny pikachu (he is my fave pokemon due to getting one in a trade from my dad in b2 and nostalgia of using him there and then regretting evolving him)
Alright, you got me. I've played since RBY and am very familiar with Berserker Gene (and somewhat familiar with Typing Adventure). Other than that, these were all new for me. This is also my first time finding your channel, so I really appreciate my first video of yours being so well done!
7:50 This actually happened to me and while my battery was "dead" I found two shinies in different times! One was at the beginning in the route north of Rustboro so I could find a Skitty and also found a shiny Nincada, and second after the game where I was looking for a Relicanth underwater, then went back to the surface, and my first encounter was a shiny Tentacool!
Wow this video was great most of the time when i watch videos like that I've heard every fact like 500 times but these are so creative I only knew like 1 or 2 of them! Also I spy a shiny budew and Spinda...
The only best part about having memory issues is that I can rewatch this video / the entire playlist over and over again and be surprised every single time
While I did know that gen 5 is the best generation (this coming from a gen-1er), I had no idea about the drums only playing when you're walking! That is so freaking amazing! Gen 5 is pretty stinking awesome
I feel like I caught the drums and other sounds playing. There are also certain people you talk to in one house in the first/second town that add instruments to the background music like piano and drums too. I loved Gen 5 too, felt like a real theme and a breath of fresh air to the series.
"in generation 5 of pokemon (the best generation)" I subbed as soon as I heard that, I'm getting into pokemon again so im looking forward to more!!!!!!

Enigma Berries also make some of the best Poffin ingredients. They include the Dry flavour which is handy for getting a Milotic and doing well in Beauty category contests in D/P/Pt
Im honestly impressed. The only one i already knew was the Pokemon typing adventure thing.
Same i literally only knew 2
I knew about that one. Didn't know it came with a massive keyboard
Yeah, me too. I knew 3 (one of them which I learned literally yesterday) being the colosseum Vaporeon, walking drums and the enigma berry.
Edit: Oh, and the hiker.
I actually remember something about the typing game. I might’ve actually had it when I got my DS. I don’t remember. But I feel like I definitely have heard of the typing one.
I remember seeing the typing game and I really wanted to get it, but my parents didn't in the end. And that's the only thing I knew about in this entire video lol
"He's the only rival to punch an evil team member"
I think he's the only person who's punched and evil team member. If anything, though, that just makes Hugh cooler.
I mean lance's dragonite hyperbeamed a team rocket member
Yeah, but in my eyes, ordering your dragon to kill the man is just below physically assaulting them yourself.
You're right but both of them are still the only people to assault an evil team member so they are both pretty cool.
dude you literally just repeated what he said and got 66 upvotes already. What did you assume that he meant punching the rocket member was uncool?
Lance did hyperbeam one but other than that I don’t think anyone else did that
Pokemom Typing Adventure was my JAM when I was younger. I loved playing that game
it has the best boss music of any pokemon game far none!
How good is your typing now
My typing was far improved because of this game. Thanks Pokemon Typing Adventure
Back in the days of Crystal version, I actually did manage to soft-lock myself on Cianwood. Not only did I strand myself there with no pokemon able to learn surf, I also stranded myself without any that could learn fly. I did have an Abra that knew teleport. But Cianwood was the last pokemon center I'd used. I ended up having to restart my game. 20 years later I'm still embarrassed.
I assume you didn't have any pokeballs/rod either? Otherwise you could've caught a tentacool or something else and teach it surf.
I always used to go through caves without flash, but one time I got lost/stuck and had to restart the entire game 😂
The very first time I played Pokémon Red I softlocked myself into a battle with a Bug Catcher on the way to Mt Moon. I'd caught a Metapod. He had a Metapod. I didn't know about Struggle at the time so I had to turn it off and restart because I hadn't saved at all since the beginning.
A very frustrating Christmas Day.

I was actually really confident I'd know all of them, but I actually only knew 3 or 4! It's really impressive how you managed to collect such rare info that a loser who spends more time on Bulbapedia than I do outdoors didn't know most of them.
Not sure why the RSE dead save battery factoid reminded me of this one weird instance when I was playing my Sapphire or Emerald version. I had just booted up my save file and began walking in the ashy grass when I encountered a shiny Spinda. I forget what exactly happened after (if I KO'd it or I accidentally turned off my game, etc.), but I reset my game right after, took the exact same path through the grass as I did before, and on the same tile I encountered a shiny Spinda again. Suffice to say I made sure to catch it this time *just in case*.
Did it have the same spots? Maybe it was the same one that came back to you? :o
Yeah you defenitely had an early shiny frame. If you still have that file you could maybe stock up on shinies lol.
I don't recall specifics but Emerald in particular has a glitch when it comes to shiny frames [know this because Emerald was one of the first games I owned]. Makes sense that you'd encounter it again.
@@hawktalon7890 It's actually a glitch with the seed generator. Instead of the seed being random each time you start or reset the game, it's always set to 0. Meaning some Secret IDs will let you have shinies early when you start the game.

When I was a kid I remember obtaining the shiny shuckle in silver via trade and had no idea it was shiny for years to come.
My first one was a shiny spearow in Pokemon Gold. I just wondered why this spearow had the same animation as the gyarados anf than catched it. Was looking it up and found out that it was called a shiny, lol. I also got the weird call from the prof. That I caught Pokerus in the same walkthrough.
I’m not gonna lie I never cared much for the registeel, regice, regirock trio but that time period thing blew my mind and makes me appreciate them a lot more now!! It’s so neat especially w/ the two newer ones added in
I actually knew the fact about the drums playing conditionally! I LOVE how gen V did their music. Different music for different seasons, towns with instrument players, even that one town that would add or subtract an instrument when you talked to one of the many players scattered around. Gen V man, Gen V.
Exactly, I plan on making a vid diving into why gen 5 is truly a masterpiece. Because the amount of care put into that game is truly unrivaled before or since. And a lot of it are changes like that, that don’t Jump out at you immediately but really help it feel immersive and alive. Something no other pokemon game has been able to 100% nail imho
Doesn't change its mediocre story lol

The drum thing in gen 5 was one of my favorite touches ever!!! Especially with the gorgeous melody of the eastern Unova routes, I may or may not have teared up at it back in the day. And yet, as much as I loved BW2 (I even completed all of Pokestar Studios), I never knew about the girlfriend arc. I'm going for gen 5 shiny Gallade if I can help it some day

I don’t know how I didn’t know about the Gen 5 drums. I must’ve left that game on idle hundreds of times looking stuff up on Serebii and RUclips.
7:25 Actually, the wild KO method is working as intended, people just didn't understand it. The more of a given Pokemon you KO, the higher the chance they have to be Brilliant Pokemon (represented by the weird yellow aura around them), which in turn gain increased Shiny rolls based on how your KO counter.
Also, yeah, I *did* know about Emerald's broken RNG, I've abused it to Shiny hunt a good chunk of the dex there already = w= IIRC it's actually intentional, specifically to resolve problems presented by dead batteries- Emerald's RNG is static, but the seed is re-generated significantly faster, making it more or less unnoticeable... Unless you're Shiny hunting.
I'm wondering if the static RNG caused plenty of people to have the same trainer ID...
Came to the comments to mention this as well. Thanks to Anubis for the research
I knew about the “love interest” in B2W2 only because I desperately wanted a Spiritomb on my party, and looked up how to get it. Other than that and the RSE frame glitch, this was actually filled with things I don’t know. Great video!

What I love about watching all these videos about obscure pokemon facts is that I learn that over the years I’ve played the games, I’ve had some really rare things happen to me without even knowing. Sure, I’ve never found a random shiny, BUT I’ve seen a hiker on Mt Chimney and I found a Munchlax in a honey tree after only 2 or 3 trees in Diamond, so I’m happy with that
Couple things. One, the Hiker thing I legitimately didn't know, that's freaking amazing. Two, very glad we're in agreement on Hugh. Three, _what did you just say about my boy Basculin._
First “top ten things you didn’t know” video where not only did I not know the majority of these fun facts but also were genuinely interesting like the tenticool or the shiny tailow
The drum thing was one of my favourite things I liked to show other people when I was younger! Id even stay on the route until the music had fully looped to hear it with and without the drumming
I actually knew about the gen 5 stuff. Gen 5 is my favorite pokemon game so I got tons of hours in it. But I find it SO interesting that something new was discovered in gen 4 remakes in 2020. That really makes me wonder if there are some new stuff waiting to be discovered
they are not the legendary dogs they are the legendary pelicans

I read about Pokepark in a magazine as a kid and it was my dream to go to Japan and visit that park. I had no idea it only lasted a few months. I The statues shown in the magazine were so cool they even had a shiny Spinda statue.
I was a little skeptical about this video because it’s sorta an over done topic but I actually didn’t know a lot of these things. Good job on your research. Also I’m glad someone else out there thinks gen 5 was one of the best generations.

@@ethan_garrell46807 Yeah it was sorta like that thing where as soon as the game comes out they said "this game is trash!!!!!" until 10 years after its release and then suddenly it's great because people remember there's more to a game than its flaws and eventually the same will happen to the next 3 gens like how it's already starting to happen. This would be less of an issue if the pokemon fanbase wasn't one of the most tunnel minded fandoms I know but it is what it is I guess.
What confuses me the most though is how people hated it for its pokemon designs. Because of all the flaws the game has designs is definitely not one of them considering a lot of people's favourites including mine came from it
