Keep in mind, these aren't MY personal questions to Game Freak, but rather the fans'. (Even if I know some of the answers) Check out my new podcast episode if you haven't btw. (Link - ua-cam.com/video/BMD6POBQTlk/v-deo.html )
I'd like to see a video on what you'd like to ask GF (including their artists)
Why is yellow not in a main series Pokemon games #Pokemontraineryellow
A pokemon pokeball destroyed? Not in the ball, we know only if within but ball destroyed will comeout quickly.
The concept of Arceus putting itself into hundreds if not thousands explains why in the same universe you can have two Arceus fight each other
It also explains how a kid can own God
@@jamiemccreath3959 and why arceus isnt as powerful as a god would presumably be. Its not THE god of pokemon, its just a part of it.
@@quaxolotl6509 Exactly this and it may be true for other legendaries and mythicals that the ones you obtain are fragmented copies of the original allowed to trainers who are deemed worthy. Just copies with a fraction of their true power with Arceus reigning supreme above them all. Not to mention how there can be more than one of a legendary as well.
I always thought the excuse of Japan's past with Dolphins being why we don't have a Dolphin Pokémon to be BS. We have a whale Pokémon despite Japan's history with whaling. It was even in a Japan based region!
Right? Why add whales and not dolphins. Bad excuse
@무스타피치 Jelena Mustapić옐레나 you have it backwards.
@무스타피치 Jelena Mustapić옐레나 orcas, despite being commonly known as killer whales are actually dolphins
This aged greatly
@@BiggieCheese118 wym?
Eternatus kinda did get an “original form” with the eternamax form, it’s just not something we can use for ourselves. Some people even theorize that eternamax eternatus is one of arceus’ thousand hands
Well it literally is a hand
I didn't realize but 11 days ago I hit the 1 year mark on my membership for you. Crazy how time flies. You're one of the most unique people/content creators on the internet and I love all your videos and I hope you make many more in the years to come Ron. ❤️
Maybe just me. But half of the poke tubers feel like they are trying too hard. And the other half feels like they are just being themselves. Ron feels like the other half
@@saitenhazard7286 I enjoy other Poketubers as well. I feel like everyone on UA-cam rn is just trying to adapt to the new popular content style/algorithm.
@@CommanderBlaze66 not even the content. Like how u ironically serious they get. Like imagine if ron was all like, 'fhere has to be a reason! Game freaks has a lot to answer for!' and all based on a huncb, *blows a gasket*
Thinking of someone specific really 🤣
@@saitenhazard7286 who?
Surprised you included a question about the original appearance of Genesect but not the original appearances of the mismatched Galar fossils.
Great video as always though.
That would also be an interesting question.
Cogita calls the people who made the tale of the ancient hero her ancestors, implying that they have lived at least 200 years before PLA, maybe genesect is related to Kleavor, they look very similar
I believe I can answer the beta pokemon question. In some cases, GF can repurpose those designs into new pokemon or forms. The new paint and excitement kind of dies if beta designs are shown and then a new pokemon based off of or is just a repurposed beta design comes out. Kind of kills it. I'm sure there are tons of unused designs that never even made it to beta status so GF has a lot in the tank. I think only allowing Gen 1 and 2 betas are enough for people to get the picture.
They actually did this in gen 2. A lot of pokemon from that gen were gonna be apart of the OG 151 only to be held back and finished later
It could also be that they don't want other games to copy their beta designs because even Game Freak doesn't know if they will end up making it into an official Pokemon down the line.
But it’s still cool to see some that either won’t get reused or have already been reused
@@anthonystrangio I'd rather, if they would release such designs, to show the ones that have already been reused so at least they got what they wanted out of the design.
0:30 and if we were asking about why Ash is still 10 they gave us the actual answer recently, for those who don't know they basically said that its to make it feel like an endless journey which is why he never ages even if its very clear that years go by
L answer from gamefreak
@@theangryvoltorb8638 I know but hey that's how it be sometimes im kinda pissed they didn't use the Ho-oh feather idea
Better than nothing, and maybe the time is just slowed for Ash…..why?
Probably because he met nearly every legendary
I swear that Ho-oh made Ash immortal... and Ash is gonna be ten forever, he'll watch his friends, family and Pokémon grow old and die over and over and over again for millenia while he remains forever ten, until the planet gets inevitably consumed by the expanding sun, resulting in Ash floating in the cold vacuum of space for all eternity, unable to die.... sweet dreams!
Maybe Ash lies about his age.
There was actually a difficulty setting in Black 2 and White 2 but you could only get it after beating the game not to mention it was locked behind a lock and key system
Unlocking Easy Mode after completing Normal Mode is really weird
But then what was the point of the setting then? How is it exactly supposed to come in handy when there is nothing to be made more difficult?
@@shinysoda6 It transfers between save files, so once you unlock hard (or easy too, I guess (of all the weird decisions I still can't understand that)), you can delete the file you used to unlock it and play through the story again
@@druidt8949
Well thats stupid, I wasn't born during the Gameboy era but the player shouldn't have to WORK for a difficulty setting.
@@shinysoda6 I tend to think of it as a New Game+, even though it's still not very good by New Game+ standards
Why are Mystery Gifts so time limited?
Why are Mystery Gifts just given to the player? It would be so much cooler to at least battle the new Pokémon in an established location in the region or a new area (examples being Flower Paradise for Shaymin or New Moon Island for Darkrai)
Well that one's easy, it's to get you to log in during that time. Debating on buying the game? Well if you don't do it soon you'll never get that special pokemon. And if you already have the game, better remember to get back on occasionally to get that gift, keeping pokemon on your mind until the next game comes out.
@@maromania7 that’s understandable for the first part but losing the location stuff felt kinda bad
@@monkaeyes3417 feels bad man
I want to ask Game Freak, why can’t we have an evil team that is actually evil and is willing to capture the player to stop them from interfering
Because then that would require for a more interesting story and challenge for the player. Which would be out of GF comfort zone...though I wish there were more Pokémon games that had more diverse stories. It would be cool to have a section where you have to team up with your pokemon to escape a cage or something :(
@@shinysoda6: Yeah I agree!
Because teleport exists
Maybe because it may cause a game to become less kid-friendly?
@@jahazielibarra4808 get gamefreak, quit being a wussy!
The "Water Starters are weapons" theory doesn't really hold up when three of them (Feraligatr, Swampert, and Primarina) simply don't have weapons. At least the Fire Starters that aren't exact or obvious Zodiac homages have workarounds (Cyndaquil is the Fire Mouse Pokemon; foxes are canines so Fennekin counts for dog), but those three Waters are just... not weaponized. They don't fit that. Water Starters are simply aquatic creatures.
The Water starters you mentioned might not be directly weapon-based, but they definitely still have attributions to weaponry. Swampert's fins can be compared to bladed fans (like Kitana from Mortal Kombat), Primarina's tail can be looked at like a flail or else there's the common "words as weapons" trope that fits as well. The only one that isn't straightforward is Feraligatr, but even than, there have been ancient weapons that were furnished with things like alligator teeth or built with their bones, so it's possibly a nod to that
Probably why I hear the other two all the time but in the past 26 years I've heard the weapons theory twice.
"semi-aquatic"
that's the theme I believe is followed for the water starters; that the animals they are based on should be capable of doing well both on land and in the water (as opposed to purely aquatic like a fish or a dolphin)
I’ve heard they may be based around warrior classes, time periods of war, fighting styles, jobs that involve fighting or killing, or something like that instead of weapons. Not sure what to call it but I suppose one could argue it’s a kind of pattern?
Blastoise: Modern warfare, soldiers
Feraligator: Primitive barbarians
Swampert: Gladiators or Roman warriors
Empoleon: Emperors and Conquerors
Samurott: Samurai
Geninja: Ninjas
Primarina: Sirens, Gods, Bards, Ect
Intelion: Assassin, spy, sniper
And the next one may be sailors? Not sure.
@@andrewburak1205 that's a massive stretch, especially primarinas tail
If there is going to be a 2nd part, I would ask what happened to the Pokémon Ranger games. It’s probably something like the mechanics being hard to translate to the Switch (the games are on the ds), but I still want to know why there hasn’t been a new one in almost 12 years.
Fron my understanding, most people played Pokemon Ranger only for the sake of getting the Manaphy egg and never truly got to like the gsmes
I liked the games, but after you play your first one you realize you have to quit the series or buy a new console. Can't just quickly scratch thousands upon thousands of circles in a rush, you scratch circles in your screen real quick.
@@maromania7 or you can play the games for free
That’s not a question for GameFreak.
@@An_average_BA_enthusiast but im sure the Jaiden Animation publicity kicked the dust back up again on those games
"this isnt necessary but pokemon fans also dont know how to read" This caught me so off guard XD
Also, if they were to put voice acting, they would most likely have to sacrifice the ability to change your name, which would then lead to more complaints.
i feel like if they did add voice acting, it would only be for the cinematic cutscenes, not the ones that are just characters talking with a stationary camera. that way gf would just choose the dialogue carefully to not include the player's name
@@mitsuadia7809 I havent thought of that... you actually make a fair point
I mean FFX was weird the way they had to keep using monikers for you so they wouldn't have to say your name.
“What Mimikyu really look like? Why does everyone die upon looking at its true appearance?”
Judging by the second question it’s probably best if the first was left unanswered.
While that one scholar may have been old and had a heart attack, the other guys "went home and died painfully that night" and "if you try to look at what's under its rag, it will become agitated and resist violently." Think about it. Why would he die so much later, and how would everyone know it was painful?
Everyone dies from seeing Mimikyu not because it's too eldritch and they die from the horror, but because Mimikyu doesn't want you to know or tell any one so IT HUNTS YOU DOWN AND MURDERS YOU! :D
@@MunchKING Well the whole reason it has a disguise it just because it wants to be loved
@@KirbyatYT Yeah, because it wasn't loved when it was doing all the casual murders. :D
Case and point: Mimikyu needs therapy
To add on to that Mimikyu question, what exactly makes it so scary? Mimikyu is super small and short, has very simple cutesy eyes and makes cute little noises (both games and anime) so I don't understand how it could possibly be terrifying in the slightest...
But I myself have a small theory that maybe Mimikyu IS actually really cute, it just has one creepy feature about it that somewhat ruins the rest of the pros that it has. Like perhaps it has a really creepy mouth or something that it can't close.
Maybe those cutesy features is caused by disfigured features?
not sure if you know this or not, but the reason why Mimikyu is generally feared is because it's true form(which lies underneath the Pikachu rag) has this odd supernatural ability to cause anyone who looks at it to die instantly; it's true body appears to be some type of amorphous blob of ghostly energy with bright yellow eyes
that's pretty much why it wears that costume, it's the only way that it can be around others without instantly killing them
@@mastergreeen1385 Yea I’m pretty sure it’s based around things like Cthulhu (the part about “you see it you die”)..it’s true form cannot be conceived thus you literally die from shock and confusion, your brain can’t even begin to comprehend what it is thus it quite literally shuts down!
@@mastergreeen1385 It never says people die instantly. It in fact is explicitly said that the Trainers that saw it died that night. and painfully. So I'm guessing it's less "seeing it is so horrible" and more "Mimikyu will use its ghostly powers to hunt you down and MURDER YOU."
@@MunchKING that kinda goes against Mimikyu's perceived nature, it wants to be able to interact and bond with others but can't because of it's true appearance, that's why it has that Pikachu costume on it; if it were really all murder-hapy, it wouldn't bother with the rag, it would just go around in it's true form without a second thought
Pokemon can have multiple sources of inspiration. Even the starter patterns that feel like a stretch conveniently share some aspects that could liken them to a shared source. Whether it's on purpose or not is the question, though. Take Delphox and Typhlosian for example. Foxes aren't dogs, but they are still similar to canines. Foxes simply fit the more 'magical' trend they were trying to hit with a mage pokemon. Typhlosian is a honey badger, but they go out of the way to call its base form, which honestly looks shrew-like, a 'Mouse Pokemon'.
Exactly. Being inspired by something doesn't mean that your creation has to look exactly like the source of that inspiration. The Lion King movie was inspired by Hamlet, but it's far from a carbon copy of it. I firmly believe that Game Freak didn't initially base the fire starters on the chinese zodiac (I don't think they even expected to get more than 1-2 generations), but I do think that they have casually leaned in to it after gen 3. And as long as they don't confirm it, they're free to opt out from this whenver they want, like with Fuecco (unless it evolves into something more zodiac-like).
@@TheBlackSquirrel Exactly. There's no hard rule, just a design trend. And even then, Fuecoco could end up a serpent, or maybe a dragon. Charizard might look like a dragon, but it's not Dragon Type, so who knows maybe the Charizard line draws more inspiration from the serpent zodiac than the dragon. Again, it's a pattern, a trend. It's not a hard design rule. Just that the extinct animal, zodiac, and weapon inspiration tends to consistently crop up.
Cyndaquil's Japanese name: Hinoarashi (ヒノアラシ), is a combination of hi (fire) and yama-arashi (porcupine) and suggests that it might in fact be based on a porcupine, although it is definitely a wordplay on hi no arashi, which means 'storm of fire’ I also can’t wait to see Fuecoco evolutions maybe then people will stop stretching these things to make their fan theory still alive
@@nazeersadek6705 Gonna be really funny when Fuecoco becomes a pepper snake. All joking aside, like I literally said in the post. Inspiration is not one sided. Fuecoco could evolve into freakin' Quetzalcoatl, a chocolate pepper gator, or a monkey for all I care. Honestly, if we want to talk about a starter theory that 'is a stretch' look at the 'grass starters are based on extinct creatures' theory. At least most of the water starters hold true to the 'designed with weapon inspiration in mind'. The worst of them would be Feraligator, which *maybe* has tire treads on its arms and legs, and Intellion who could *technically* be likened to a gun.
Ultimately, it's all speculation. Unless we're the actual designers, we don't know what went through their heads. These just happen to be common traits that some people see and interpret when they look at the official Pokemon art.
@@MagusAgrippa8 I’m fully aware Pokémon can have multiple inspirations but when it comes to the starters there’s a theme between the ones introduced in the same generation and that’s it. Every living creature on this planet has an extinct ancestor so it’s not really a proof. Regarding the weapons for water starters it falls flat on a lot of them: Feraligator doesn’t have any weapons, Swapert has a Romanian helmet which is a peace of armor and not a weapon, Empoleon has a built in trident but it doesn’t take it off or use it for attacks as far as I’m aware and finally Primerina doesn’t have any weapons too that’s 4 out of 8 water starters who doesn’t have a weapon theme going for them. We already talked about the fire starter thing being debunked but ultimately if you still want to believe this fan theory then I can’t stop you but let me ask you this: why would Gamefreak limit their creativity options when it comes to starters designs by imposing silly restrictions like those?
Regarding beta designs, there's always the chance of them being used in future games, so that might be the reason to keep them hidden
1:19 A japanese book from 1996 actually said that there are tranquilizers, in enough measure to enclose a pokemon in the little ball, which is completely empty. Thankfully, this was retconned
5:06 An Italian youtuber says that Arceus is just one arm of a greater being
My biggest question for game freak is this: when will Greninja return? How about Mega-evolution and Z-moves? And X and Y are currently the only games besides Sword and Shield to not get a remake. Where did Pokemon Z go?
You just skipped Unova and Alola for that thing with remakes.
@@tear959 Alola got the “ultra” set (ultra sun and moon). Unova has black and white 2.
@@testerwulf3357 but these arent remakes, they are improved versions (sequels in BW2 case).
@@testerwulf3357 USUM are retellings, kind of like SMG2 not a remake but retelling
BW2 aren't remakes they're direct sequels
You forgot the Orre region
My favorite Unown theory is that they are heavily linked to the existence of several species in the Johto region. There's several pokemon in Johto that look like they have 'Unown' characteristics. Especially Wobuffet and Girafarig who basically have an Unown stuck to their back side, and come right after Unown in the Pokedex! They also all three share the Psychic type, and I believe Girafarig is the first psychic/normal type.
One of my questions is, why have Unown basically been removed from the game’s lore? They were like a cameo in Legends: Arceus. But there’s so much that could be done with them, like what if they were an accidental creation of arceus? And even it is unknown of Unown.
Loads of Unknown appear when using that weird HG/SS arceus event. What if whenever Arceus uses its power, it also creates Unown? So that’s why it sends us in legends: Arceus instead of just fixing the problem itself as it’s literally a god. Also why it created all of these other Pokemon to do things so Arceus didn’t have to. Be cool if one game has a post hall of fame event where something so bad happens that Arceus is involved and you’ve got to deal with the fallout, add a feature where Unown can be combined to create words, and that changes its stats, like increased bulk with longer words and decreased speed. Maybe if you use “volt” that’ll be a fast Pokemon with an electric type move given to it, but if you used “electric” it would be a slower Pokemon with an electric type move given to it, obviously don’t let people have free access over it or else you’ll get slurs, but have like a decent sized list of available words.
There´s actually an explanation for the Lumiose city ghost girl. Basically, it was all Hoopa´s fault. There were two girls. One of them got trapped on an elevator because of Hoopa and died while waiting for her friend (that was trying to find Hoopa again or someone that could get her out of there). The friend tried to get help for her and told her to keep listening the elevator to know when the help will come but she couldn´t find any help because she got transported to the Hoenn region. There´s a message in the train station in gen 6 and an npc in the ORAS remakes that prove this connection to Hoopa.
The main thing I want to know is if there is art for the original dragon, genesect’s original form, and other mentioned but not shown Pokémon. I don’t want to see it, as we may get it in a game someday, but I want to know if it was considered and sketched out during the process of creating those Pokémon.
I'd like to know if GF plans to release more previous gens in the style of "Let's Go!" / BDSP / SwSh on the Switch. I think it'd be a great way to appeal to new players who don't want to play the older games with the older art styles. Not to mention the easier connectivity with Home.
I was subbed for a long time now I would never regret that decision for subscribing to you, you being you has given me more entertainment I could have ever asked for thank you
"Pokémon fans don't know how to read" thank you for giving me a good laugh with this line :')
I remember seeing one of the indigo league episodes.
I think it was where Misty accidentally catches Psyduck, and you see Psyduck in the poke all at the end of the episode.
But that doesn’t count, I think
Apart from Sprigatito's evolution, the only question I have are what kind of New Regional Forms / Evolutions will appear in Scarlet & Violet?
5:10 I prefer the easy answer: the many beams Judgment breaks away into are its "arms". Not just like the appendage, but also in the sense of weaponry.
Here's one, if Dialga and Palkia have the same amount of importance as Giratina, why did it take so long to receive their own Origin forms?
I’m guessing because it wasn’t needed in modern day pokemon! They had to create a past region for it as the 2 stopped using their origin forms at some point
@@testerwulf3357 i mean orgin Palkia/Dialga nearly destroyed the world, my guess would be lore wise the people split the Adamant crystal and Lustrous Globe into pieces so they aren't able to fully transform anymore
The ghost girl was so interesting to me as a kid. I tried everything to solve the mystery behind her, as XY were the games I played the most. All I was able to find tho were things others might know about, the not that was left at the train station and a ghost girl waiting in a hotel listening for the elevator. That storyline, while minor, was super interesting and would’ve loved an answer to this in a Z game, but I’ll just have to keep waiting 😭
All I can tell is that The ghost girl is remnants of pokemon originally being targeted at an older audience. Most likely a scrapped story line they didn’t have time to flesh out
I think I can answer some of these:
- *What happened to Blue's Raticate:* Blue simply boxed him.
- *What's with the Kalos Power Plant:* If I remember correctly, you encounter Team Flare there, so maybe security?
- *Is there a pattern among the starters:* No.
- *Who were the legendary beasts originally:* Flareon, Jolteon, & Vaporeon. There is nothing that indicates that the identities were actually known, but the true indicator may be the Kimono girls.
- *Why are there no difficulty settings:* ... I wonder if the difficulty setting thing from Gen 5 (Specifically Black 2 & White 2) was the "dropped unique gimmick" you referenced in the video.
- *Why is there no voice acting:* Language differences plus possible limited data storage. Can Game Freak get together to do 9 different languages for multiple characters for a game? Could the Switch handle that? Can that fit in a Switch cartridge.
- *Why is Game Freak so secretive about Beta Pokemon:* In the case that they go back to a design for a future Pokemon.
I've never understood the answer to the features question. Having something in one game doesn't make the other obselete. Every game after gen 2 (except gen 3) has had a day and night cycle. Does that make GS a game that can't be revisited. If Sun and Moon had a battle Frontier, I'd still go back and play Emerald because it has a charm to it.
I'd understand the point about Hoenn's Battle Frontier if the mechanics of Pokémon had been unchanged from gen 3 to 6. But we've had the physical/special split, new evolutions to stand alone Pokémon, new movepools/moves that make previously obsolete Pokémon good, Mega Evolution, new game-changing held items (choice items, life orb, etc.). I would have loved a full-fledged Battle Frontier with modern Pokémon mechanics.
I know you said that it was entitled to ask for a pokemon game with every single region but that is also a cool idea that I've never thought about for some reason. Hopefully nobody ever hounds Game freak to make it since they don't need to and put out quality games every time.
Maybe a spin off.
I’m glad what I’ve always thought the inside of a pokeball being is what it is according to the games creator
Another question: why isn’t Alomomola a Luvdisc evolution?
These are good questions. My questions I would ask why does gen 1 get more remakes than the other gens and why did game freak didn't Pokemon Z and why our players can't talk in the main games it would be cool if that was a thing and why didn't the dark type didn't have a gym until the arrival of sword and shield ? And why is Lugia a psychic type and flying type and not a water and flying type ?
Two questions I have:
1. Out of all Pokémon why didn't Kangaskan get a baby prevoloution?
2. Why can't their be an option to skip cut scenes?
10:35 OMG THAT BETA TORCHIC SO CUTE!!! * - *
Im absolutely obsessed by Beta pokémon! Its so dope to see which ones had one more stage like babies and the previews designs
So I’ve personally always had two questions in regards to the origins of Pokémon that I hope Gamefreak answers one day.
It’s basically the kangaskhan and cubone question except not a theory, but since Drowzee and Munna are stated to possibly share common ancestors, what other Pokémon game freak thinks would share common ancestors that haven’t already had some form of indication.
The second question being if Pokémon like Corphish are not native to the region it debuted in, then what region/regions were it and other similar Pokémon like Yungoos, and Copperajah, imported from?
I really like that second question, I often wonder that too!
We know Copperajah is an Indian Elephant because it really looks like it ought to be a ground-type but Raichu needs to be able to thunderbolt it down.
I really love this video and it's great
Hope y'all are having a nice summer
What got me was the cut scenes of Piers' band playing with not vocals or even music that flowed with the mouth movements
I want to know if human-pokemon fusion was ever planned for gen 7. with introduction of ash greninja and the z crystals looking very similar to burst crystals from the one manga PLUS the fight with lusamine, it seems like this was planned but scrapped at some point? I understand why but i'm curious if this was ever considered
There is evidence that pokemon fusion was going to be the main thing in the exact games but it was scrapped. Maybe because the manga wasn’t well recieved in Japan?
There is also fan art of Lillie and Nihilego being fused and both their desgins fit perfectly
Something that annoys me is that they use the "we don't bring back old features so you'll play older gens" excuse, then completely restrict any access to those Gens (not allowing roms, not porting older games to newer consoles, ect ect) , and with Nintendo cancelling support for the 3ds eShop, some Pokemon games might fall into obscurity, and those amazing features will be lost forever...
The question about the OST releases though; so true! I'd like to have USUM and the Gen 8 OST to have Super Music Collections (maybe have USUM as bonus tracks on one of those albums). Even my brother, who despises BDSP would rather have it get a soundtrack release than buy the DP Super Music Collection, because he LOVES its music for the most part and sees it as a straight-up improvement (something we agree on).
If a part 2 does come out at some point there is one thing I’ve been wondering. What is the relationship between Jolteon, Flareon, Vaporeon and the legendary beasts? Why are they so similar in design and why do they have the same typing? Do Suicune, Raikou, and Entei have an unknown connection to the Eeveelutions? It’s something that I’ve been thinking about for a while.
The water type starters are based on animals that are half aquatic/half land dwelling
Why doesn't the infernape line learn the punch moves it has the ability to buff them and sure you can learn through other means but shouldnt it be through level? And no drain punch?
I think a lot can be answered with q bit of business logic
Why no voice acting ?: Fully or even partially voice acting a game in 9 diferent languages would very logistically complex and time consuming, which doesn't go 23ll with the main series' crazy tight development cycle
Why no difficulty setings: again, it takes development time and they rather those resources elsewhere as players can make their own difficulty
They could always extend their development time and add more people. I know there's rumors floating around that Game Freak act like they are a small and poor studio and that they deliberately keep the Pokemon teams small. They've made tons of money from this franchise I'm sure they could add some more devs or extend the dev cycle cause the last couple games have felt a little bit like EA's Madden franchise.
Also adding in voice acting costs money as they have to hold auditions and pay the actors. It doesn’t add anything to the game so they consider it a waste of money! I personally don’t mind there being no voice acting
I personally believe that Venonat and Butterfree’s similarities are just convergent evolution like how Early Whales looked a lot more like Crocodiles and snakes
This video is cool. Would love to see more in a similar vein.
Is the Moomoo Milk that the Hex Maniac from Dendemille Town sells actually from a Miltank
This was such a dope video! I loved it. I never knew I had so many questions for Game Freak but, here's another question I had. Why in the world did they put a 20 minute timer on competitive Pokemon battles?
what if the reason Venonat looks so similar to Butterfree is because its mimicking Butterfrees appearance to avoid being eaten by predators like some animals actually do?
"Pokemon fans don't know how to read." Facts
And I think I remember something about them not wanting to do Pokemon Z because it'd be predictable or something
One question I have about Pokemon video games is, who was the original Kanto champion, before Blue? It can't be Peter because if it would be Peter, that would mean he only had three members in the Elite 4.
From what I remember it was Lance, they didn’t have a campion! Most speculate it was oak who retired leaving the region without a champion so Lance took over the duties as the strongest of the Elite 4 until someone could beat the Elite 4 becoming the new champion.
"It's not necessary, but Pokemon-fans also don't know how to read" OOF. Not often that I hear a sentiment like this and am compelled to agree.
Anyways, for things like Kangashkan being born with a baby, or other Pokemon with a certain item, I'd simply file that under gameplay-story-segregation, aka Gamefreak being "too lazy" to make extra sprites or models for Pokemon that'd only show when they hatch, although Kangashkan would quite frankly just flat out require a pre-evolution. There are also ways to explain some of these away, like in Cubones case, it being an orphan only applying to one common ancestor-type Cubone, and when it evolved into the first Marowak the bones became part of its DNA and thus became features inherited by its descendants. Of course, that's just a way of speculation, which is kinda the point of the video that we can only speculate this stuff as of now, but still.
Ironically, the shiny-locks are basically on the complete opposite end of the spectrum, limiting gameplay for the story/immersion, primarily for the story, which I guess at least makes sense to push for immersion at least in the story and less so outside of it.
The Legendary Beasts also are an interesting case, even outside of the question of which Pokemon they once were, I've recently started questioning if the Legendary Beasts we know, the ones that Ho-Oh revived, are even the same ones spoken of in legend, or if they weren't simply named after/confused with other Legendary Pokemon, similar to the Galarian Birds, since the Beasts lore is somewhat contradictory at times to them being revived by Ho-Oh, Entei being birthed when a Volcano erupts for example, or Raikou "having descended with the lightning".
As for the Ditto-theory, from what I recall, we were told that back then basically the entire team was in when coming up with most of the Pokemon, so while we don't necessarily know just how much Masuda was really involved with that back then already, I feel compelled to accept it when he says they had no intention to have it be a clone of Mew, them sharing the same shiny-coloration probably more so being a result of limited colorpalletes to choose from back in Gen 2, which is the reason why basically all brown Pokemon turn green and all blue Pokemon pink, so it's primarily a result of them simply sharing colors in the first place.
Game freak, why wont you buff the Ice type? It has 4 weaknesses and 1 resistance. It's the worst type defensively. Keep the weaknesses, but give it 2 more resistances. Flying cause it sort of makes sense and fairy because fairy needs a nerf. (The whole thing... all of it is... is my question)
This video swings from "question nobody cares about, or everyone with a hint of common sense already knows the answer to" to "Existential crises". I love it.
I mean literally the only legitimate question is "Why is there no difficulty setting" everything else is abstract as fuck.
This is a random question and I know most of you probably won't know. But about 10 years ago I used to follow Pokemon leaks and there was a UA-camr who used to cover it all. They never used to talk but their videos were the biggest in the community at the time. They used like a lime green background and white text and I'm not sure but I think they either had a jirachi a celiby or tyranitar image as like their logo but I'm not 100% sure about that. Does anybody remember their name I lost them but I'd like to see the people used to think back then again. And I would like to see my old comments.
do you mean tyranitar tube?
@@blue--shell no not him 😔. The guy I'm taking about never talked. The video that I specifically remember was his pokemon center floor theory video which predicted titles of games. He used leaks from japanese magazines and stuff too
my question to gamefreak when you learn to make well-run games
I'd like to know why in the last few years Pokémon has gotten more expensive for the lesser content that we've been getting overall.
“Not an alternate earth”
“Similar yet different planet”
Isn’t that the definition of an alternate earth? A similar yet different planet
As in it’s not the planet Earth in a different universe, but a completely different planet that has humans. (Kinda like Star Wars)
@@truegreen7 ah, thanks for the clarification
this was an awesome video, one of my favorites
Hi Truegreen7! I want to get into digital art, and I have a question I'm not sure how to explain: How do you (and other fakemon artists) make the templates for the pokedex backgrounds (I have no idea what the proper name to call them is) and insert the pokemon?
I think you can find that on internet
@@mystora7159 Any suggestions?
@@turtleyliam9137 I don't know myself though
I'm pretty sure fan ROM hacks are actually usually completely fine, it's fan *games* (aka not just modifications to existing code) that are copyright infringement.
@@charnalk5572 As long as yours has unique characters, story, and sprites (not using pokemon assets) it’s probably perfectly legal as there is no copyright issues. Plus if it’s a parody, non-profit, and/or educational (with these you can even use pokemon assets as long as you don’t copy their game 1:1, aka have different story) gamefreak legally can’t touch you for it as you aren’t doing anything against the law!
1:51 Very clever timing TrueGreen, very clever.
Another question which could be asked is why gamefreak keeps turning the starters into furbait despite the controversy
in the pokemon manga (heatgold soulsilver 2 i think), unown quite literally created palkia, dialga, and giratina.
Welp, the 'Why is there no dolphin Pokemon' question is dealt with now
I think there should be legend Kyurem based in past unova showing the original dragon splitting into three parts
OK, my questions about Pokemon are as follows:
1. Why aren't there bathrooms in the Pokemon main series games? Wouldn't it be better if we can save the game by showering? We get sweaty and dirty from adventuring.
2. Why is there only one save file in Pokemon? Wouldn't it be nice to have a Pokemon main series game with three save files?
3. Why isn't there voice acting yet in Pokemon main series games? I would one hundred percent play Pokemon Scarlet and Violet if it is voice-acted.
4. Will the future Pokemon games be available in the PC, iOS, and Android someday? We live in a world where PC and mobile phone games are more prevalent and affordable for ones who can't buy consoles.
5. Will there ever be a Pokemon main series game in languages like Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Dutch, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi, and even Bahasa Indonesia?
1.-) Because it wouldn't be as useful as being able to save everywhere.
3.-) Because that would open the floodgates. And because it would also be too time-consuming. They would have to dub the games into 7 languages, at minimum.
4.-) No. Nintendo wont let their rivals (Microsoft) get access to such a big franchise like Pokemon.
@@toumabyakuya to add ever since gen 6 the games always have to come out on the same date for everywhere
Will they ever go back to games in the Orre region? Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness have a lot of praise and nostalgia so will we ever see them in the virtual console on Switch or a third installment?
The description for Eternabeam actually reveals that Eternamax Eternatus is its original form.
The voice acting question has been answered by Ohmori, actually, and I agree with the decision for no voice acting for one of the two reasons provided.
Well, what's the answer? I'm very curious.
@@billiezeiszler608 ever since gen 6 the games have to come out the same date as everywhere so to save time voice acting has to be ommited
My biggest question is the mimiku one. Like how is it so bad the you will die just looking at it? :edit by the way I love your vids and all the Pokémon u make ron!
While that one scholar may have been old and had a heart attack, the other guys "went home and died painfully that night" and "if you try to look at what's under its rag, it will become agitated and resist violently." Think about it. Why would he die so much later, and how would everyone know it was painful?
Everyone dies from seeing Mimikyu not because it's too eldritch and they die from the horror, but because Mimikyu doesn't want you to know or tell any one so IT HUNTS YOU DOWN AND MURDERS YOU! :D
That grass type is so cute.
7:34 and 8:46. The truest words Ron has spoken on video
7:58 i agree. Or hell even the DS titles, like platinum. Although i dont see that happening due to bdsp, but considering i dont even think you can buy those anymore...
Turn a 2 myths into Pokemon.
1. My most favourite myth. The Bunyip.
The Bunyip is one of Australia's myths in South.
To been living in Swamps, lagoons and the billabong.
2. The loch Ness monster
It's a myth that lives in a river called the loch Ness.
It was said to look a an extinct Dino called the plesiosaur also nicknamed the serpent.
You can do it if you want to.
It's your choice to day another day.
Like you don't have to do it now or tomorrow.
Do it any day
Most would argue Lapras is at least partly inspired by the Loch Ness Monster, so there's that. As far as a Bunyip Pokemon I do think they'll save it for if they ever do a region based on Australia.
There's a very simple solution to getting rid of shiny locks, make the pokemon in the cutscene be rendered in-engine rather than just pre-rendered, they already do it for the MC's model.
Is there any chance of the music reviews or challenges coming back? We haven’t heard your thoughts on the Kanto and Johto soundtracks yet.
I have a question;
How come we never had voiced dialogue in the Pokemon games, BUT we got one in Pokemon Masters EX?
Also, how come animals like dolphins, manatees, moose and even certain mythical creatures from legends and folktales aren't made into Pokemon yet?
I think I can answer the mystery of Eternatus' original form.
It could've been originally the skeletal remains from Dragon Type Pokemon and/or a mixture of Pokemon with dragon-like skeletal features, and those pieces were put together into Eternatus.
This makes sense, especially since, according to what I've heard, some archaeologists have found the bones of animals and puts them together, since there's no real photo of what the animals from back then looked like.
It's like having to guess what the color of the dinosaurs' skins looked like. It's like a big incomplete puzzle that we have to put together, but with different pieces that connect easily.
i like that etarnatus theory. a lot
I was ready to ask, "WHO'S IN THE GS BALL!", but that's the anime.
It's a solid list though. One question I had though comes from Ultra Sun and Moon. It seems in the Rainbow Rocket post game part each Team X hails from a different dimension even a lot of the games reference different regions. Is this a mistake or is interdimensional that easy?
There’s an empty room in the back of the castelia sewers that’s empty and barren, but it always gave the vibe to me that it was planned for a legendary Pokémon encounter.
Time to watch this in 16x speed just to say I watched it all already
@Truegreen7 If you created your own fan game using a pre-existing engine, would it be a “RON hack”…? 🙃
I believe that the reason beta Pokemon are kept secret is because they usually end up adding them into gens as new Pokemon, so it'd basically just be sort of cheating if they revealed all their scrapped designs
Fun fact we actually know from Mystery Dungeon that Diglett has feet
"What did genesect look like before it was experimented on? I hope showing it's original form would shut up the fans who think this bug used to be a kabutops."
Erm. There? There's your answer? It's a kabutops? And not just because of similar appearence, genesect is also said to have been from the same time period as kabutops?
3DS’s eShop is ending sometime soon, so Emerald will never be coming to the 3DS.
I think the reason for the beta art thing is because Game freak has in the past resused or redone old designs for new games. This has been confirmed as Gen 1 was supposed to have almost 200 pokemon but some were cut out. Gen 2 saw many of these designs added like chikorita, Marial, Slugma, Teddiursa, and more. I doubt it was a one time thing.
what weapons are feraligatr, primarina, and swampert based on? i thought the running trend for water starters was that they're based on (semi)aquatic animals
I’d love to know if Zeraora really comes from the ultra ruin, and if so, where does Guzzlord come from
I just want pokemon to live in an ecosystem.
Maybe they keep those original designs secret because there's already so many Pokémon they want people to be familiar with and having even more that they're not gonna do anything with would make that harder.
My main question would be: Why not include regional variants of pokemon that were already in DP?
I understand that they wanted to remain faithful to the original as much as possible, but small changes like that would've been a great way to experience a classic in a new way.
Here's my years long question to GameFreak.
When are we getting a new Mystery Dungeon game and *why haven't you made an anime series on it yet?*
Where do you get the gameplay footage from for these videos ?
