One fact that fits the desciption is one that makes you facepalm due to how ridiculous. Shigeki Morimoto comfimed that Lugia was supposed to be a water/flying type, but the changed it to psychic type to make it feel more powerful. This is because the psychic type was the most powerful type in gen 1. That is the only reason why it's psychic type and it's the stupidest reason a pokemon has their type.
-
Wailord also kinda looks like a zeppelin. So it could also be a hindenburg reference.
-
We talked about the Playboy Pokemon and the Domanatrix Pokemon, why didn't we disuse Salazle? It literally makes Reverse Harems with multiple male Saladints. And loom at its design. They KNOW what they're doing, and they LIKE it.
-
The Misdreavus point is wholly speculative and completely disregards the original two Ghost-type Pokemon from the leaked beta that it replaced. Additionally, the entire Mt Silver map was decreased in size, and changed in layout, but still has plenty of trees. I know as a kid I assumed it was forested. If they were trying to avoid it looking like a forest, they failed miserably.
-
Misdreavus is based on Nukekubi, a humanlike Japanese yokai that can detatch its head and shrieks to scare humans. Highly doubt the suicide forest connection when its straight up just a ghostly floating head.
-
ngl, that Misdreavus one is a huge stretch and that's most likely not the "gas" they meant with Chimchar.
-
7:41 I loved that you found the exploding whale is the one that was blown up by dynamite on an Oregon beach in the 70s.
-
7:30, I just thought it was because wailmer and wailord were kinda based on beach balls and blimps and their self-destruct was them popping like balloons. NOT THIS ATROSITY!!!😱
-
Politoed is a frog and a toad. Not all toads are frogs but all frogs are toads.
-
More facts: 1: dispite coming from eggs, Pokemon have belly buttons. Examples are Oshawott (If the scalchop is heavily damaged or lost, Oshawott can grow a new one from its navel) and Incineroar (Incineroar's flame belt is produced from within its body and bursts from its navel) 2: Jigglypuff is based on Kirby
-
Hoops lowkey wishes Tsareena would stomp on him in his dreams
-
Tsareena also learns Power WHIP and gets the egg move acupressure
-
I knew about the dominatrix thing but it took me way to long understand Tsareena's name "Tsar? Oh, like the russian monarch, right."
-
Technically, a hermaphrodite is actually an organism that possesses both male and female reproductive parts. You can think of a flower, which as both male parts (pollen-producing parts) and female parts (ovum, which becomes the fruit's seed). And a lot of invertebrate organisms are actually hermaphroditic in this sense, including sea stars
-
Politoed could be a pun on poly (many) toed, referencing the fact that it has more than one toe
-
3:36 when you squeeze a ketchup bottle
-
I also remember a theory that Red jumps off the cliff after the player battles hin in Mt. Silver which also fits in your theory that Mt. Silver was based on Aokigahara Forest.
-
I facepalmed so hard at the Slowpoke fact that I may have given myself a concussion
-
I thought Wailord knowing Self-Destruct was a reference to Hidenburg, considering their designs look awfully similar to zeppelins or blimps
