In Pokémon Black/White, if you tap on a Pokémon while in its Summary screen, it will turn its back to you. Tap on it again, and it will turn to face you. Rub the stylus vertically over the Pokémon, and it will start jumping up and down. Rub the stylus horizontally over the Pokémon, and it will start hopping from side to side. Keep rubbing the stylus in a circular motion over the Pokémon, and it will start to levitate.

Pokémon Black and White have many instances of people speaking foreign language.

Fun video! Fun fact: the Ralts line were finally added to the Human-shaped egg group with Gen VIII. All Ralts-related Pokémon were classified exclusively in the Amorphous egg group alongside the likes of Wobbuffet, Grimer and Drifblim for whatever reason. Before you think Gen VIII decided to fix some egg group inconsistencies, though, it should be noted that Nidorina and Nidoqueen still cannot breed. For some reason only female Nidoran and the entire male line-up can breed, while Nidorina and Nidoqueen have never been able to... in the games. Curiously, the anime special "Mewtwo Returns" shows that not only can the Nidoqueen clone that Mewtwo created in the first movie breed, but all her babies are miniature Nidoqueen.
Those mini-nidoqueens bothered me so much when I was little. I thought it didn't make sense and that the people who made the movie didn't know the pokemon mechanics.
Apparently Nidorina and Nidoqueen were always intended to never breed. In a recent video from DidYouKnow Gaming, they got Nob (the guy who translated the first 4 gens) to translate an old Pokédex book that was only ever released in Japan back when Red and Green came out. And according to the book, female Nidoran canonically lose the ability to breed once they evolve.

I think it’s because the nidoran line is partially based off of rhinos. Rhinos in captivity do not breed because females don’t make a certain horomone in captivity.

I always thought that was intentional because in Crystal, the animation for "Faint Attack" had the Pokemon fade away for a second before attacking. My thought was you weren't supposed to be able to see it, so it would be "Faint" while it attacked.
Also, about cutting grass : In Route 118, since it's taller grass, it becomes regular grass after cutting it once, and you have to cut it again to get rid of the grass
that’s not true, I remember it didn’t do that and I just checked to be sure. Also it’s Route 119 not 118 when I checked lol but nobody ever remembers route numbers
if talking gen 3 hoen, i can also confirm that to be false. The one and only time i used cut for grass was me deciding cutting the tall grass was more worth my time than hopping off my bike. Since it was also the first time i learned the trick, i went a bit overboard in trying to reveal all the hiding trainers before completely mowing the route. XD

This might not be useless to someone out there, but Alolan Ninetales, Snom, Frosmoth, Amaura, and Aurorus can be knocked out from full health by a full field of entry hazards (Stealth Rocks, G-Max Copperajah's Steel spikes, and three layers of regular Spikes)
@@davidlarkin1040 That inflicts poison or badly poison status, which does damage over time. Toxic Spikes doesn't deal entry damage when switching into them
@Marco Cubides Domínguez Yeah.....but the original comment was talking specifically about hazards to Ko the opponent when it gets sent out......which means damage when switching......which toxic spikes does not do.....
@Marco Cubides Domínguez Toxic Spikes don't inflict direct damage when a Pokemon gets switched in........all it does is poison (or badly poison) you. You don't take any damage from switching in..... you take poison damage at the end of the turn, which (depending not he situation) could allow for the opponent who switched in to use an attack. The whole point of this is for the opponent Pokemon to faint immediately after switching in. Toxic Spikes does not do damage when you switch in. Seems pretty strait forward to me. Don't know why it's so confusing, lol
Shorts are indeed comfy and easy to wear. That is the most useful thing to learn/know from this video. That and that this video was very good and entertaining.
Depending on the shorts, they also have a lot of room for you to carry your Pokeballs in to make them more accessible than needing to take them from your backpack every time
This one is mostly an unconfirmed rumor, but it's something that makes for a good story anyways. All the pokedéx's entries about Eevee's "unstable DNA composition" aren't just background fluff to justify all its evolutions, but an actual callback to how Eevee was conceptually supposed to be used as, a pokémon that couldn't hold a permanent evolution because of said unstability, transforming temporarily into Jolteon, Flareon or Vaporeon by using the elemental stones as in-battle consumable itens. This, however, proved to be too complicated to make work at the time, what with the Game Boy's limitations and the ever-changing moveset between forms, so the devs settled for multiple permanent evolutions and called it a day. This kind of adaptative mechanics however didn't died on the cutting room floor, and is rumored to be the basis of Arceus', Genesect's, and Silvally's gimmicks, being able to change their types to better fit the situation, just like Eevee was meant to be on the alpha days of the first Pokémon game.
@Heather Moon iirc specifically it wore a collar that forced it into its other forms, but yeah you're right. Now I want a fan-made game of the original RBY versions with this implemented.
His Japanese name is ボスゴドラ(bosugodora) the Godora isn't "god-dragon". It's the Japanese name for Godora seijin, these huge mental alien creatures from Ultraman (old school Japanese power rangers). Seems like the name Godora itself IS derived from king Ghidorah. But aggron looks more like a huge mental power-ranger esque monster than a three headed magic dragon.
I remember learning about the cutting grass technique back when I first played Pokémon Yellow (my first Pokémon game) when I was a kid - I was half-way to a town I couldn't fly to yet, and only had one Pokémon still alive in my party (the weakest one who I'd been avoiding training up til then), and in desperation to avoid to random encounters, my kid logic was like "I'll try cutting the grass". I was so happy when it worked, and I kept doing that the rest of the way to the next town to avoid any battles 😂. Later on, I (finally) discovered repels were a thing 🤦🏻♂️
In the same flavour, I randomly talked to pikachu in yellow in rock tunnel and it flashed the cave for a second (as I as young, did not know where to find flash)
You can technically use a move you’ve forgotten in the middle of battle (at least in black/white but I’m unsure about the other gens). But if it’s a double battle and your faster Pokémon kills an enemy causing your slower Pokémon to level up and learn a new move, if the move you deleted was the one you planned on using then your Pokémon will still use it, even though it’s no longer there. Learned this as a kid with my Pokémon Black game. Battled a double battle near victory road and my Emboar leveled up in the middle of the turn and I made him forget flame charge for flamethrower. I realized I had selected flame charge to attack just before, and he still used it despite no longer knowing the move. I’m sure this works in other games gen 3 onward after double battles were introduced. I’m glad this dumb fact finally had a use since I’ve been wanting to share this for years.
Definitions of Gropius. United States architect (born in Germany) and founder of the Bauhaus school (1883-1969) synonyms: Walter Gropius. example of: architect, designer. someone who creates plans to be used in making something (such as buildings) Copy-pasted this from the first result that comes up when you search up the meaning of gropius N had a plan to create a new world where humans and pokemon were separated, so maybe that's why they added gropius?
If you use rock smash on a rock in pokemon emerald, you have a 7% chance of encountering a pokemon, unless you are in the safari zone, where the encounter rate is 9%
@@justsomeshinigamiwithanapp5955 speaking of rare candy, if you are short on revives you can use a rare candy instead and get a small fraction of hp back (i found that in gen 7 but it may appear in other games)
When you start your game and get your starter Pokemon you can add up it's total stats to recognize what potential it has. For example, if it's stats adds up to 73 or below it's decent all around, 74 very good, 75 and 76 relatively Superior, and 77 and above outstanding.
@@skotiaH2OTrue. My method doesn't necessarily tell the exact stats of the starters. As you may be looking for a particular value in a stat that unfortunately may not be there even if the Pokemon is outstanding in potential. Which is why this can be considered a useless fact or useful depending on what the person in particular actually wants. This was just something I noticed.
I think it could work when you play older games or if you can't have access to an IV calculator. However I can recall that I used a similar method on my first playthrough.
@@ThyFloorestFloor Oh yeah, by the way this is a method that works for me from generation 3 and up. I suppose in two and one the closer it is to 73 the better.
I assume the "extrasensory damage against minimized targets" is a copy and paste error from stomp- Stomp is also a flinch move. The probably made stomp first and didnt want to do everything again, so they forgot to take the minimize damage out when copying the code.
Umbreon learns the move synchronize a psychic type move that only works on Pokémon of the same type as the user since umbreon is a dark type that would mean this move could never be used
Random fact no one asked for, Most boss battles have EVs and Max IVs in X, Y, Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Cynthia's team has max IVs but no EVs
Yeah it's a meme that Wailord and Skitty can breed, but do you know Zangoose and Seviper also can breed? Literally Romeo and Juliet in Pokemon. Also, Nidoking and Nidoqueen cannot breed. I think Egg groups are really weird.
In frlg Red really only speaks to the mimic girl in Saffron city when he demands she stops copying him. Also, emerald has a fan club in Broly’s island you can turn into your cult.
Azurills gender change chance was fixed in X and Y i believe so each Azurill will always stay the same gender. Stomp also does more when the opponent uses Minimize. Twister does more to damage to a pokemon using Sky Drop, Bounce or Fly and can knock down berries in the battle background in X and Y. Compoundeyes can also make it more likely for a wild pokemon to have a held item. Also X and Y its actually Route 2 that has a 100% catch rate as well as the Santalune Forrest.
Synchronize makes enemy encounters have a 50% chance to be the same type as the synchronize user if its in the lead, and lightningrod also makes electric type encounters more likely.
as a kid, i genuinely had a lot of fun cutting / mowing the grass in gen 3 with cut. in fire red and leaf green you could gather some seriously rare berries, and before i realized that battling triggered the pick-up ability, I figured i would just mow the grass in certain areas that i had found berries in so i could walk around and pick em up without having to battle... 😂😂😂 needless to say, that did NOT work... but it did kill several afternoons.
The Gen 4 bike racks are actually really cool, I imagine the best use for them is being able to hop on/off your bike easily and have something else Registered. I'm definitely doing this on my next play-through just for the novelty
Fun fact: The reason gen 4 rotom (electric fan) still had levitate was because the game didn't actually change Rotom's type in its different forms. It was always considered and Electric/Ghost pokemon. Now though Rotom does change types i believe so it is a useless ability today.
Lots of trainers' pokemons in Emerald tend to hold something. I remember there's a couple of items that you can only obtain this way. One of them is Silver dust
The only way to get a Dragon Fang in Emerald is by going to Meteor Falls, battling a trainer three times, and stealing the Dragon Fang from his Shelgon during the 3rd battle.
7:23 Growlithe cant learn Growl as its named Cry in japanese 9:13 in the same tower there also a shiny Meowth 9:35 its not only a camper, hikers and iirc youngsters can also appear There are more things I noticed which I may adress later
In Generation III, there is a 1/64 chance a Hiker, Camper, or Picnicker can be seen climbing the mountain when going up or down Mt. Chimney using the Cable Car. When using the Cable Car, Poochyena (RS)/Zigzagoon (E) was supposed to be one of the sprites that could appear with a 1/64 chance. However, due to a bug, it can never appear.
Useless fact of the Chinese language in Pokemon: The reason it got to Generation 7 for the first official Chinese Pokemon game to release is that China is too big so different places have different translations of pokemon. And none of them want to change them. So in 2016 TPC made a video for Chinese users saying that "Screw it, we are going to organize the official Chinese translation and put them in the same game" (The video is now taken down for some reason) Also, there exist two versions of Chinese in Pokemon games, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Simplified Chinese is the official language of the Chinese government, while Traditional Chinese is mostly used outside of mainland China. There were a few Chinese Pokemon names changed for some cencorship issue, that was only changed in Simplified Chinese (For obvious reasons), but the Traditional Chinese never changed any names. Also, the official Pokemon Trading card game only sells in Traditional Chinese, which is mostly not sold in Mainland China, for obvious reasons.
I've been playing Pokémon for a long time and knew pretty much all of these facts, but the one about putting your bike away on a bike rack in Diamond and Pearl just blew my mind.
a fact that popped into my head: the super game boy color palette in pokemon red and blue has the darkest gray sacrificed to light blue, this happens because of the water
A lot of Umbreon’s Pokédex entries mention it having poisonous sweat. Umbreon in most games could only learn the poison move toxic and no other poison moves (and even that has been removed from its learnset in sword/shield).
Oh yeah, Route 1 in X/Y actually has no encounters. You walk through Route 1 before you get your starter. Route 2 is the route that has 100% catch rate.
Fact: in Emerald, if you use Cut on the tall grass while chasing Mew, Mew will disappear, probably showing you just turned into a hunter instead of a trainer
@@ZimVerse Well, yeah, Kangaskhan belongs in this group. she has the same general Kaiju design as the rest of them (she's as similar to Beta Rhydon as the actual Rhydon is), she is also used by Giovanni in the games (along with Rhydon and the Nidos) and she is in the Monster Egg Group (as are the other 5 mons).
@@robinaraven3943 if you look-up pictures or footage of the surfing Rhydons in the animé, you'll see that they can keep the water is under their feet, so if Kangkaskhan is surfing the same way, the baby would be fine.
Several of these things actually get exploited in speedruns, specifically the diamond dust in HG/SS and I believe there are GSC routes that utilise grass cutting
The Clair fact BLEW my mind because I'm doing a Crystal Kaizo playthrough and I thought she was just calling me out for save-editing to prevent a softlock, not because I just had dragon fang... that's the coolest fact to me.. the game designers seriously are amazing
Here's a Fun Fact addition to the Rotom-Fan part: The reason they would even put Levitate on a Flying type... is due to a mechanic oversight that i guess they kept. In Gen IV, Rotom and all its forms were the same typing; Electric/Ghost with levitate. The only difference would be the stats of regular vs appliance, and what moves they would have (Rotom uses all 4 well, while the appliances would be stuck with one of Overheat, Hydro Pump, Blizzard, Air Slash, and Lead Storm). Then Gen V came and made the appliance's ghost type swap with the type of the learned move. So... yeah, the Flying Levitator sucks. But I find it interesting to discuss.
My guess is that Aggron was originally going to be a Tyranitar-esque Pokemon but GF decided they didn't need 3 pseudo-legendaries in one region. That would also account for its high evolution level.
I've used the Cut fact to clear a whole route as I only had a level 5 Ratata with 2 HP after an almost full team wipe in a Nuzlocke. That Pokémon Centre felt like it was 20000 miles away.
I think the Bike Racks were there so you didn't need to register your bike to the shortcut button. Anywhere you might go from somewhere to somewhere (like a town you could fly to before walking to a cave) would have them so you could just walk up to then press 'A' instead of opening the bag. Making registering the bike redundant.
Future site and doom desire USED TO hit everything nutraly, they hit with damage following the type matchup in newer games, I don't know when that was changed tho
Fun fact: well more of a glitch really, in pokemon soulsilver if a wild ditto transforms into one of your pokemon that knows surf and you have your ditto transform into that ditto and complete the battle by either winning or running away your ditto will know surf and the other moves that ditto copied from your pokemon.
In most Pokemon games yoh can physically see a legendary Pokemon standing on its location like rayquaza in sky pillar , zapdos in powerplant etc ...but in Pokemon sun and moon ,that doesn't happen ...tapu get summoned if you touch the statue , necrozma can be found in grass , zygarde is obtained by collecting cores and cells and solgaleo/lunala's battle scene is preceded by a long cut scene
Here is a fun fact. You know if you cheat in pokeballs and catch the pokemon like the one that attacks Professor Birch you will catch it. In the rom hack Pokemon Red Adventures based on the Manga you try to catch Mew, Mew will avoid it no matter what pokeball you use. Thats at the beginning of the game.
9:40 I remember seeing this as a kid but then I wasn't sure if I saw what I saw and then going on the lift again to see a random trainer they weren't there the 2nd time. It totally confused me as a kid XD
I've grown up with Pokemon for about 15 years, so I know lots of facts. But you got me on 4 of them, which is really surprising. Usually the only facts I don't know are crazy things about secluded hasty or coding or something like that. But I din't know 4 of these, which is really nice!
Omg.. for years people told me I was crazy when I said I saw a hiker while riding the cable car. That fact just undid years of subtle torment for me, thank you.
OKAY I thought I was crazy for YEARS because I remember seeing the hiker on the cable car cutscene. I'm very happy that you covered that, because I thought I was nuts.
Not only does the Santalune Forest have the same layout as the Viridian Forest, but all of the pokemon available in the Viridian Forest are available in Santalune Forest (based on Red, Blue, Fire Red and Leaf Green)

I always thought that was intentional because in Crystal, the animation for "Faint Attack" had the Pokemon fade away for a second before attacking. My thought was you weren't supposed to be able to see it, so it would be "Faint" while it attacked.
Also, about cutting grass : In Route 118, since it's taller grass, it becomes regular grass after cutting it once, and you have to cut it again to get rid of the grass
that’s not true, I remember it didn’t do that and I just checked to be sure. Also it’s Route 119 not 118 when I checked lol but nobody ever remembers route numbers
It exist back in gen 2. Just play crystal ver on emulator and use cut when you're standing in a grass
if talking gen 3 hoen, i can also confirm that to be false. The one and only time i used cut for grass was me deciding cutting the tall grass was more worth my time than hopping off my bike. Since it was also the first time i learned the trick, i went a bit overboard in trying to reveal all the hiding trainers before completely mowing the route. XD
@@cullenlatham2366 damn I would have sworn it worked like that in gen 3... my favorite gen and I have played it quite a bit, but not in somewhere around a decade though... but i have this clear memory of cutting tall-tall grass to get regular tall grass... wierd

@@davidlarkin1040 that doesnt do damage upon switch out
@@davidlarkin1040 That inflicts poison or badly poison status, which does damage over time. Toxic Spikes doesn't deal entry damage when switching into them
@Marco Cubides Domínguez Yeah.....but the original comment was talking specifically about hazards to Ko the opponent when it gets sent out......which means damage when switching......which toxic spikes does not do.....
@Marco Cubides Domínguez Toxic Spikes don't inflict direct damage when a Pokemon gets switched in........all it does is poison (or badly poison) you. You don't take any damage from switching in.....
you take poison damage at the end of the turn, which (depending not he situation) could allow for the opponent who switched in to use an attack. The whole point of this is for the opponent Pokemon to faint immediately after switching in.
Toxic Spikes does not do damage when you switch in. Seems pretty strait forward to me. Don't know why it's so confusing, lol
Shorts are indeed comfy and easy to wear. That is the most useful thing to learn/know from this video. That and that this video was very good and entertaining.
I finally understand why Bird Keeper Toby keeps saying that, thank you!

Depending on the shorts, they also have a lot of room for you to carry your Pokeballs in to make them more accessible than needing to take them from your backpack every time
This one is mostly an unconfirmed rumor, but it's something that makes for a good story anyways. All the pokedéx's entries about Eevee's "unstable DNA composition" aren't just background fluff to justify all its evolutions, but an actual callback to how Eevee was conceptually supposed to be used as, a pokémon that couldn't hold a permanent evolution because of said unstability, transforming temporarily into Jolteon, Flareon or Vaporeon by using the elemental stones as in-battle consumable itens. This, however, proved to be too complicated to make work at the time, what with the Game Boy's limitations and the ever-changing moveset between forms, so the devs settled for multiple permanent evolutions and called it a day.
This kind of adaptative mechanics however didn't died on the cutting room floor, and is rumored to be the basis of Arceus', Genesect's, and Silvally's gimmicks, being able to change their types to better fit the situation, just like Eevee was meant to be on the alpha days of the first Pokémon game.
Castform is the ultimate in battle switcher
Interesting...
That explains why it continues to get evolutions
Kecleon: You see what it has to suffer through to get a fraction of my power.
@Heather Moon iirc specifically it wore a collar that forced it into its other forms, but yeah you're right. Now I want a fan-made game of the original RBY versions with this implemented.
Aggron can learn all those special moves because his name in Japanese means "boss dragon god" so he's sort of a dragon.
His Japanese name is ボスゴドラ(bosugodora) the Godora isn't "god-dragon". It's the Japanese name for Godora seijin, these huge mental alien creatures from Ultraman (old school Japanese power rangers).
Seems like the name Godora itself IS derived from king Ghidorah. But aggron looks more like a huge mental power-ranger esque monster than a three headed magic dragon.

I remember learning about the cutting grass technique back when I first played Pokémon Yellow (my first Pokémon game) when I was a kid - I was half-way to a town I couldn't fly to yet, and only had one Pokémon still alive in my party (the weakest one who I'd been avoiding training up til then), and in desperation to avoid to random encounters, my kid logic was like "I'll try cutting the grass". I was so happy when it worked, and I kept doing that the rest of the way to the next town to avoid any battles 😂. Later on, I (finally) discovered repels were a thing 🤦🏻♂️
In the same flavour, I randomly talked to pikachu in yellow in rock tunnel and it flashed the cave for a second (as I as young, did not know where to find flash)
You can technically use a move you’ve forgotten in the middle of battle (at least in black/white but I’m unsure about the other gens).
But if it’s a double battle and your faster Pokémon kills an enemy causing your slower Pokémon to level up and learn a new move, if the move you deleted was the one you planned on using then your Pokémon will still use it, even though it’s no longer there.
Learned this as a kid with my Pokémon Black game. Battled a double battle near victory road and my Emboar leveled up in the middle of the turn and I made him forget flame charge for flamethrower. I realized I had selected flame charge to attack just before, and he still used it despite no longer knowing the move. I’m sure this works in other games gen 3 onward after double battles were introduced. I’m glad this dumb fact finally had a use since I’ve been wanting to share this for years.
In Gen 3 at least, the Pokémon will use the new move
Thanks for sharing
It works in ORAS too
Lol no wonder N is like "uh yeah you can just call me N"

N had a plan to create a new world where humans and pokemon were separated, so maybe that's why they added gropius?

@@Cruptile good tip but since I'm a nuzlocker by trade that wouldn't be of much use, I never knew that though, must be a gen 6 upwards thing
When you start your game and get your starter Pokemon you can add up it's total stats to recognize what potential it has. For example, if it's stats adds up to 73 or below it's decent all around, 74 very good, 75 and 76 relatively Superior, and 77 and above outstanding.
Or... you could just use an IV calculator and have much more accurate values to work with
@@skotiaH2OTrue. My method doesn't necessarily tell the exact stats of the starters. As you may be looking for a particular value in a stat that unfortunately may not be there even if the Pokemon is outstanding in potential. Which is why this can be considered a useless fact or useful depending on what the person in particular actually wants. This was just something I noticed.
I think it could work when you play older games or if you can't have access to an IV calculator. However I can recall that I used a similar method on my first playthrough.
@@ThyFloorestFloor Oh yeah, by the way this is a method that works for me from generation 3 and up. I suppose in two and one the closer it is to 73 the better.
I assume the "extrasensory damage against minimized targets" is a copy and paste error from stomp- Stomp is also a flinch move. The probably made stomp first and didnt want to do everything again, so they forgot to take the minimize damage out when copying the code.
That Clair fact was incredible! Who knew that dialogue from a 20+ gear old game could be tucked away like that?

Flying types when sent out of a pokèball in sword and shield have a gust of wind sound.

Azurills gender change chance was fixed in X and Y i believe so each Azurill will always stay the same gender. Stomp also does more when the opponent uses Minimize.
Twister does more to damage to a pokemon using Sky Drop, Bounce or Fly and can knock down berries in the battle background in X and Y.
Compoundeyes can also make it more likely for a wild pokemon to have a held item.
Also X and Y its actually Route 2 that has a 100% catch rate as well as the Santalune Forrest.
Synchronize makes enemy encounters have a 50% chance to be the same type as the synchronize user if its in the lead, and lightningrod also makes electric type encounters more likely.

05:41 That fact is NOT USELESS at all. Not knowing that can cause you to loose Pokemon in a Nuzlocke.
It only applies to II-IV gens though.
Fun fact: The reason gen 4 rotom (electric fan) still had levitate was because the game didn't actually change Rotom's type in its different forms. It was always considered and Electric/Ghost pokemon. Now though Rotom does change types i believe so it is a useless ability today.
Rich boy Winstons Zigzagoon seems to hold a nugget in gen3.

There's another trainer with a shiny seaking
Useless fact of the Chinese language in Pokemon: The reason it got to Generation 7 for the first official Chinese Pokemon game to release is that China is too big so different places have different translations of pokemon. And none of them want to change them. So in 2016 TPC made a video for Chinese users saying that "Screw it, we are going to organize the official Chinese translation and put them in the same game" (The video is now taken down for some reason)
Also, there exist two versions of Chinese in Pokemon games, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Simplified Chinese is the official language of the Chinese government, while Traditional Chinese is mostly used outside of mainland China. There were a few Chinese Pokemon names changed for some cencorship issue, that was only changed in Simplified Chinese (For obvious reasons), but the Traditional Chinese never changed any names.
Also, the official Pokemon Trading card game only sells in Traditional Chinese, which is mostly not sold in Mainland China, for obvious reasons.

A lot of Umbreon’s Pokédex entries mention it having poisonous sweat. Umbreon in most games could only learn the poison move toxic and no other poison moves (and even that has been removed from its learnset in sword/shield).
That was because it was a poison type early in development but it was changed to dark
You can't have umbreon with toxic, unless you trade it from gen 7, wich I did, I made it's build around toxic xD
Oh yeah, Route 1 in X/Y actually has no encounters. You walk through Route 1 before you get your starter.
Route 2 is the route that has 100% catch rate.
To add onto this, beginning routes in a lot of the recent Pokemon games have a fixed 100% catch rate no matter what
Now Ive realized that in X and Y, there are no way a Pokemon can have the "caught in Route 1" in Kalos in its summary.
Fact: in Emerald, if you use Cut on the tall grass while chasing Mew, Mew will disappear, probably showing you just turned into a hunter instead of a trainer

Here's a Fun Fact addition to the Rotom-Fan part: The reason they would even put Levitate on a Flying type... is due to a mechanic oversight that i guess they kept.
In Gen IV, Rotom and all its forms were the same typing; Electric/Ghost with levitate. The only difference would be the stats of regular vs appliance, and what moves they would have (Rotom uses all 4 well, while the appliances would be stuck with one of Overheat, Hydro Pump, Blizzard, Air Slash, and Lead Storm).
Then Gen V came and made the appliance's ghost type swap with the type of the learned move. So... yeah, the Flying Levitator sucks. But I find it interesting to discuss.
I was always so scared to cut the grass in gen 3 because I was worried it would never grow back. Did it once it twice and never again.

In the rom hack Pokemon Red Adventures based on the Manga you try to catch Mew, Mew will avoid it no matter what pokeball you use. Thats at the beginning of the game.
