    What's interesting about the dex entry for Metagross that you mentioned is that even though permanent magnets do tend to denature more slowly as temperatures decrease, they don't actually get stronger in the cold. However, electromagnets do get stronger as temperatures decrease because the metal in wires (or whatever the equivalent in Metagross's body is) becomes more conductive as the vibrations of atoms decrease. This means Metagross uses electromagnetism rather than containing a permanent magnet. I don't know if that is consistent with previous dex entries for it, but I believe it is, so good job Gamefreak, way to do your homework.

    "when a Kingdra and a Dragonite meet, a fierce battle ensues". Man, family reunions between the dragon trainers of Johto would certainly be an interesting spectacle.
    Also this gives me a hilarious image of Clair and Lance having a super intense battle, and the other Dragon specialists are watching it from the sidelines like it's a movie; popcorn and all.

    To explain why Kabuto's dex entries contradict eachother, we should remember: Omanyte and Kabuto are version exclusives.
    Kabuto's dex entry in Sword says that it is in the brink of extinction, which makes sense since Kabuto cannot be found in the Crown Tundra in Sword.
    This coincides with Omanyte's Sword entry since it says that it has populated to the point of being an invasive species.
    Kabuto's dex entry in Shield says that sightings of it is fairly common in some places, which makes sense since Kabuto takes the place of Omanyte in Shield.
    This implies that Kabuto is inherently a less invasive Pokemon than Omanyte is.

    I think the legendary bird pokedex entries make the most sense if you consider the Japanese names for Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres are "Freezer (フリーザー)", "Thunder (サンダー)", and "Fire (ファイヤー)".
    Known as Freezer, this Pokémon fires beams that can immobilize opponents as if they had been frozen solid.
    When its feathers rub together, they produce a crackling sound like the zapping of electricity. That's why this Pokémon is called Thunder.
    The sinister aura that blazes like molten fire around this Pokémon is what inspired the name Fire.
    So instead of these Pokemon being named after Pokemon from Kanto, I think its saying they were given the same names for different reasons.

    I actually have a theory for why some dex entries contradict: *the Pokedex for each region is written by that region's professor.* Professors have different theories about certain Pokemon.

    The meteorite strike mentioned in Calyrex’s entry must be the same meteorite mentioned in Eternatus’s entry. Ice rider Calyrex’s Shield entry says that it moved a forest overnight to save all the Pokémon there, which is likely also the meteorite event. This means that the location of Eternatus’s meteorite is somewhere without any plants, and that Calyrex is over 20,000 years old.

    • @Pika250
      @Pika250 4 роки тому +53

      According to a video by Bird Keeper Toby, the forest Calyrex moved was the Slumbering Weald, whose original location was what is now Stow-on-Side as an extension of Glimwood Tangle, and its current location of Postwick is much closer to the Crown Shrine, in fact it's the border between the Crown Tundra and the main part of Galar. No one from Postwick to Wedgehurst (Hop notwithstanding, of course) dare even mention the events of the darkest day or the wolves. But the folks of Stow-on-Side and Hammerlocke and even Circhester mention the legend of the darkest day and Stow-on-Side even has a shrine dedicated to the heroes. True, it was covered up by graffiti, but a certain Copperajah happened to tear it down to expose the truth.

    Metagross being powered up by the cold is really cool (pun intended) because it relates to something interesting in physics: by supercooling certain nonmagnetised magnetic metals (like copper) you can produce a superconductor, a substance which not only has negligible resistance to electric current, but is also capable of warping magnetic fields so that the superconductor is simultaneously attracted and repelled by a magnet.
    Also, I think Beldum blood is some kind of ferrofluid.

They don't ONLY consume blood, and they won't kill the animals by bleeding them dry like some people think, but the wounds are deep enough to cause infection.
      Edit: as an interesting side note since I've had to kill some that were biting horses during a summer job, their primary food is blood and they do require it, but in the case they don't find any they have to swallow bugs which isn't sustainable to them. They must eventually find prey to bite and lap up its blood, which they do in its (it usually being a cow or a horse) sleep.

    I think with fossil pokemon, none of the fossil pokemon are perfectly restored. I think just like in Jurassic park (which Aerodactyl's amber is a reference to), they didn't have enough in the fossils to completely revive the pokemon, and so they had to mix in other bits of DNA in order to produce a living species.
    The fossils introduced in Sword and Shield clearly demonstrate that fossil reviving technology can create brand new pokemon that never existed before.
    I believe the incompleteness of the fossil pokemon is why they're ALL (pre gen 8) rock type. It doesn't make sense that all ancient pokemon would be rock type in the past. Anorith was probably bug/water, not bug/rock. The rock typing on fossil pokemon is a result of the revival process which restored them to life.

    For the Exploud entry:
    We know that humans and Pokemon were at one point functionally the same. Humans even married Pokemon so it's likely that ancient humans could understand Pokemon as well as Pokemon understand humans and as time went on and humans became more distinct from Pokemon we lost that ability. Even in modern times there are a fair number of humans with Psychic powers , some that can use Aura and unique characters like Iris and most notably N that can understand Pokemon perfectly (For Iris it's just Dragon types). Since humans can have these traits that let them understand Pokemon it's likely that the ability to understand Pokemon used to be a universal trait among humans. So back in ancient times an Exploud yelling loudly to the next town would be as effective as if a human had a giant megaphone because both would be understood.

    The implication that you mentioned with the "legendary birds'" names is actually very similar to how the cougar also got the name 'mountain lion'. The man who "discovered" it had never seen a lion, but had heard descriptions of what they looked like, and the cougar looked like what he imagined a lion to be. So he assumed it to be a lion in the mountains.
