Eevee exhibits characteristics of foxes. The idea of Eevee's adaptability comes from the Japanese legend of raccoon dogs (Tanuki), which can transform into anything and even control natural elements like fire, water, and lightning. This is reflected in Evoli's development.
Kitsune (foxes) are also known for their shapeshifting; there are plenty of stories of Kitsune and Tanuki getting into shapeshifting duels, though the foxes usually win by cleverness rather than skill.
Foxes are just canines who wish that they were cats by running on cat software. It's like how spotted hyenas look and act like canines when they're actually felines. Naming your Pokémon after people's actual pets was a nice touch. I have a senior dachshund with several health problems named Bella and I adore Dachsbun so I was rooting for Tovah all the way. I love that you named your Riolu "Riley", because in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, we get Riolu as an egg from Riley on Iron Island. Believe it or not, we could've gotten ANOTHER Cars spinoff as not too long ago, it was revealed that a project called Metro was in the works. Yes, a movie about TRAINS! We don't know much about it, but concept art for the movie showed it would've been set in a fictionalized NYC where cars rely on trains, as it showed the NYC Subway, Metro-North, and the LIRR. Why didn't it happen? Because the Disneytoon Studios working on it was shut down in June 2018 as a result of Lasseter and Disney parting ways.
I just want to point out that hyenas are not exactly felines 👉👈 they belong to the feliform suborder, which amongst felines and hyaenidae includes also fossas and mongooses for example ! I think it’s a fascinating suborder of carnivores, I love them all ! This makes me think we don’t have a hyena like pokemon, do we ? :o that’s be a good pokemon I bet hehe (Btw a train oriented animated movie sounds truly horrific, thank god it didn’t happen)
When not even Geeta could kill one of the dogs says A LOT about just how weak Geeta is as a Champion. The fact that Glimmora isn't the first one up to set up Toxic Debris and her Kingambit isn't the one she Terastallizes...was SUCH a missed opportunity on Game Freak's part. It's like they rushed her team to get the game out instead of making her the intimidating Champion she deserves to be. If her team was Glimmora to lead, then Dondozo (with Liquidation, Body Slam, Avalanche, and Earthquake), Arboliva (to set up Seed Sower and then use Terrain Pulse), Gholdengo (such a special and rare Pokémon should be owned by a Champion), Armarouge/Ceruledge , and finally Kingambit as her ace, the battle would be FAR more interesting and challenging.
It feels more like that is how it was originally supposed to be, but GF thought it was "too difficult" for kids to beat, so they changed it to make it easier.
I know how that feels back in the early 2000's I used a picture of my dog's face(a pitbull) as my Xbox profile. In the small print for Xbox they have a part that says it can use the pictures you use, and thankfully my picture of Maggie Mae became so popular they used it. So now when someone buys an Xbox even the new ones since that was on the xbox360 the starter pack of pictures that comes with the system has her pic on it...and I said thankfully it's there because I had a fire that made me lose all of my pictures of her and shortly after she died of cancer so I had none left. Only to buy the Xbox one just recently and her picture was there and it made me cry tears of joy!
@@KCDeportes Thanks for replying and telling me that...cause it makes me very happy hearing that my Maggie Mae was so great to so many people and knowing someone liked it enough to use it as long as you did. Merry Christmas!
@@abokoblin2156 I didn't go to Reddit to check it out by why put this here just because my dog was a pitbull? I ask that cause not all pitbulls are bad its usually just bad people raising them like any other dog and/or people over breeding them making bad pups.
Mabosstiff was one of my aces during my run through Scarlett. That murderous smile is everything. No wonder Arven went through such lengths for the angy baby
I would love to see a cat-locke. My own kitty passed away two weeks ago today. I miss her and would love to see her immortalized in a manner such as this.
Honestly dunno which game will be best to get the most amount of cats possible. Espeon, Vaporeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Persian (2 forms), Delcatty, Luxray, Purugly, Liepard, Pyroar, Meowstic, Incineroar, Perrserker, and Meowscarada are all the fully evolved Pokemon that I think qualify as true cats, I might've missed one or two. Hoppip is a weird case cause its evolutions are clearly not cats, I'm not sure if Absol or Zangoose count as feline or not, and everyone else is a legendary.
Thank you for giving Little Miss Joules some time to shine. Arcanine is my personal favourite doggo Pokemon, so I couldn't have asked for a better pick! (Realized I never posted this oops)
Seeing the Eeveevolutions as dogs feels really weird to me. But then you explained that they mostly resemble fox like creatures. That made me realize how weird it feels to think of foxes as "dogs" (canines). So yeah, touché Mr. HG
@@pete5516 Bears aren't canids, aka what we often conversationally reffer to as dogs. They're in their own clade and are further related to domestic dogs. Foxes *are* canids. Canids split off from caniforms around 38 million years ago, while bears split off around 45 million years ago. So no, it's not the same. Other canids tend to be much more domestic dog-like than bears and are factually more closely related to them.
Loved the idea behind this nuzlocke, super endearing and original imho! Would love to see a version with cat or bird pokemon as some other people suggested. Keep it up! ❤🐕
Zeke has brought the Zekening upon us all. P.S. I also did a play through of just dogs cuz of all the doggos in this game. I wanna do a cat one in a region with more cats, however.
I’m slightly sad about it, because it surely robs him of the opportunity to say they are all clearly cats, after arguing they clearly count as dogs here.
This is the most cute and wholesome nuzlocke idea in the world!!! OMG Thank you for this amazing Christmas gift. And Congrats for all the goods dogs in the video!!
This is my favourite video that you´ve made by quite some time! I really enjoyed the previous ones as well but it´s always nice to see you having a good and moderatly easy time with a lightheaded theme. Well done and Merry Christmas!
I assume that this is mostly because there is already a boss fight against a trainer for each of the other types, in the form of either a gym leader or a team star boss. There are 18 badges between the titans, team star bases and gyms, and 18 types, and they cover all of them.
Finally a nuzlocke that speaks to me. One with dogs. Please don't let them faint or I'll be sad. Also I'm excited that you are including the Eeveelutions but I think Umbreon is supposed to be a moon rabbit or based off of it.
That would be really cool. There are so many cool bears in pokemon. Ursaring, Pangoro, Walrein, Seel, Primarina, Bewear, Beartic, Urshifu, Obstagoon, Floatzel, Furret and Gumshoos. I mean, if 'dog' can include foxes because they are canines then the sister group Arctoida (meaning bear like) should all count as bears. It's a shame that Mightyena isn't in the game, 'cause Hyena's aren't on the dog/bear side. They are on the cat side (so is Zangoose)
@@stokeyarcanum5754 Weirdly, I didn't forget it. I just forgot what it was called :D. Though here's a thought, would you include Komala? It is both not a bear but called a bear.
my 17yo dog died this year, and tomorrow (dec 25) he would turn 18. thanks for the video, already holding back tears and havent started the video yet thank you so much flygon, merry christmas
17 years is a lot more than some people get with a dog. Not saying you are selfish, but I would be happy you got all that time instead of moping whenever you see a reference to a dog. Your buddy wouldn't want you to be a sad sack, enjoy the pokemon video lmao
I love this! Next time you do a full dog or full cat team, you should take names from adoptable pets at your local shelter or something to try and showcase them!
As sweet of an idea as that is, it probably wouldn't be very effective unless he lives somewhere like new York City where there's a higher chance that any of his viewers are even in the local area. It's not like he has millions of subs.
I've always thought of Eevee and its evolutions as foxes myself. This was a fun video! I'd love to see something along these lines again. I saw someone bring up birds, that sounds cool!
Why is this video so wholesome 🥹 Dog Pokémon have always had my heart, especially Zoroark and Lucario. Please do a cat-locke next? I’d love to see it! Happy holidays to you and every good boy/girl in Paldea and IRL 💜
Ever since I was a kid- I always thought of a big bundle collection of just dog Pokémon- and found this video very satisfying lol- a cat nuzlocke would be pretty cool- I would definitely watch it lol. Keep up the great work^^
Watching this video shows me how much harder on myself I made the game by accidentally skipping the first team star base, the second gym, and the flying titan and then being confused as to why I felt under leveled
We love a good puppylocke! I don’t know that I agree with some of the Eevee categorizations, though. Jolteon definitely reminds me of a cat, but that is probably my bias as a cat owner coming through.
Thanks for featuring my dear Leo in this video. Sadly, we had to let go of him back in February. I still miss him, but it's good to know other people appreciate the role he played in your video.
I am SO unbelievably happy to have seen this Nuzlocke pop up!! As a dog groomer who was super pumped to see that there were enough doggos in Paldea to have a woof squad, it fills my heart with sheer and utter joy to see this. Thank you for simply being you. ❤️
Great video Great that no dogs died Yours or Arvens Cats run would be fun too plus maybe an Eeveelution only one Will you take pet cat names too? I'd also like to see a Pseduo Legendary only playthrough
My childhood dog was a mutt (visually looked very husky/German Shepard/Labrador) and looked VERY similar to Lycanroc day form. I’m planning to use one on my next run of Scarlet :). This run through is so heartwarming!
Ahhhhhh I loved this video so much! I had to wait a few weeks to watch this because I hadnt finished Scarlet at the time it came out, but now that I've beaten the game, as of last night, I can freely watch all this without any spoilers. ^^
This video was great, lots of good jokes. I also agreed with pretty much all of the Eeveelution placements on the (very scientific) cat-dog scale, surprisingly.
I really hope Electrike returns in the DLC alongside Lillipup also great video as always Flygon wish Houndoom would have been used a bit more often and yeah a Cat run would be awesome
0:40 Was not expecting one of my favourite movies to get a mention!! honestly the first 2 (yes there is a 3rd but its kinda bad) movies are incredible!
Interesting, to me Jolteon is 100% Fox and its Flareon that gives the strongest Dog vibes. And Espeon is definitely a Cat, the rest are harder to place but the lineup from the polls felt about right.
I was planning to do this for my Scarlet playthrough (with the one caveat that I could use Dog-like pokemon as well, because Koraidon is a derpy doggo-dragon and you can’t tell me otherwise).
To me, Espeon reminds me of a Nekomata, the Two-Tailed Cat from Japanese Folklore. Every other Eevee look like foxes to me, except maybeee Sylveon who could be a Bunny
This made me realize I actually had four dogs in my playthrough lol (Key -who I get in every game possible- the Houndoom, Delta the Jolteon, Renegade the Arcanine, and Mantis the Zoraork!) Also I've always knew and excepted that Eevee was a mix of different animals not meant to be recognizable as one over the other but I'd say it most closely resembles a fox while it's evolutions go off in different directions
I love that this game has so many dog pokemon that you can do a dog-only run with ease. My friend LOVES dogs and I'm hoping she plays Violet. Also congrats on the no-deaths run! Things got really dicey a few times, but I guess the game couldn't bear to finish off any of your good puppers. A cat-only run would be fantastic!
As you said, the eevees are foxes and would count under dogs for this challenge. I do see how espeon is way more catlike, though- I think Vaporeon should be more on the dog side, actually, but hey.
I like to think Arven was so helpful in this run because he knew you were going on a dog pilgrimage and he infamously loves dogs

Zeke hiding behind that bush is my favourite part of the video.
He is so hiding cause he did something we wasn't suppose to
He thought he was hiding from us 😂 He was a silly boy
He's becoming the bush :3
I thought the bush was zeke, and there was just a little silly dog behind it
Wait there was a dog in the picture!!?? I thought it was just the bush so I was kinda confused.... but I guess it makes sense now...

The creator straight up said dog or catlike creature so where u pulling this out ur ass lol
Both kitsune and tanuki are reasonable sources of inspiration for eevee and they’re more closely related than, say, foxes or tanuki are to dogs.
As thanks so much for including Zeke! I miss that dog every day. He’d be honored to be named after Zorua, master of disguise that he was
oof rip zeke the master of illusion rest his soul
WHY‽‽‽ Now I'm tearing up, sorry for your lost and hope he's chasing butterflies whatever he is

Fun fact: the elite four and champion specialize in the same types as the titan Pokémon
Ground
Steel
Flying
Dragon
And the champion’s ace is rock type
Coincidence I think not
I assume that this is mostly because there is already a boss fight against a trainer for each of the other types, in the form of either a gym leader or a team star boss. There are 18 badges between the titans, team star bases and gyms, and 18 types, and they cover all of them.
Would have been better to have a different ace for her... since her current ace should come out first

The Evee dog/cat debate is hilarious I remember seeing people argue about it on twitter weeks ago
I've seen people argue about it for as long as there have been internet forums lmao
I just meet in the middle and consider it fox like lol 😂
I say it's a mix of both as when it evolves it gets more cat/dog/ fox like
The person who made eevee said it's not a dog nor cat
He just made it beacause his daughter liked a thing that looked like eevee

Ahhhhhh I loved this video so much! I had to wait a few weeks to watch this because I hadnt finished Scarlet at the time it came out, but now that I've beaten the game, as of last night, I can freely watch all this without any spoilers. ^^
This is the definition of the perfect Nuzlocke. Absolutely do kitties next!
I hope he considers Absol a cat. I found it on so many cat-like Pokémon lists, I now think of it as a cat.
Wait, is Absol even in SV?
@ellanettling3659 Sadly, I don’t think it is.
Aack! I don’t know why that sent so many times; UA-cam’s insane.
"i asked for pictures of pets to name my encounters" and that, sir, earned my sub and like
I REALLY Like this type of run
Looking forward to Cats, Lizards, Fish, Birds, Plants, Food, and Minerals
i’m glad i’m not the only person who noticed how many freaking dogs are in this game
I would love to see a rodent only nuzlocke that’d be pretty fun
This video was great, lots of good jokes. I also agreed with pretty much all of the Eeveelution placements on the (very scientific) cat-dog scale, surprisingly.
I have a confession to make, I'm more of a cat person, but dogs are good too
I love this idea and was so happy to see all your lil guys make it out ok. I definitely would love to see a cats-only run too!
I really hope Electrike returns in the DLC alongside Lillipup also great video as always Flygon wish Houndoom would have been used a bit more often and yeah a Cat run would be awesome
I hope Boltund makes its way back as well.
0:40 Was not expecting one of my favourite movies to get a mention!! honestly the first 2 (yes there is a 3rd but its kinda bad) movies are incredible!
Jolteon is the only one that truly is a dog to me out of the evos. He’s a herding dog!!! 💙
Interesting, to me Jolteon is 100% Fox and its Flareon that gives the strongest Dog vibes. And Espeon is definitely a Cat, the rest are harder to place but the lineup from the polls felt about right.
I have several corgis myself and it's cool to see you have one too! They are such great dogs
As a cat person I’m angry

You named the Riolu Riley 🤔
I love it, but as a gen 4 fan I'm also a little confused.
Why confused? It’s a fitting name.
@@thevioletbee5879 Because if I said "Hi Riley", then both of them would respond.
@@TheMosquitto Riley in Pokémon Violet..?
@@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy 🤦♀️Let's just say I phrased that poorly 🙏🙏🙏
This is the essential FlygonHG, Ph.D., video. It will never get more FlygonHG than this.
I was planning to do this for my Scarlet playthrough (with the one caveat that I could use Dog-like pokemon as well, because Koraidon is a derpy doggo-dragon and you can’t tell me otherwise).
To me, Espeon reminds me of a Nekomata, the Two-Tailed Cat from Japanese Folklore. Every other Eevee look like foxes to me, except maybeee Sylveon who could be a Bunny
This made me realize I actually had four dogs in my playthrough lol (Key -who I get in every game possible- the Houndoom, Delta the Jolteon, Renegade the Arcanine, and Mantis the Zoraork!)
Also I've always knew and excepted that Eevee was a mix of different animals not meant to be recognizable as one over the other but I'd say it most closely resembles a fox while it's evolutions go off in different directions
This video having pets on the line was by far my most stressful video to watch on every death.
I love that this game has so many dog pokemon that you can do a dog-only run with ease. My friend LOVES dogs and I'm hoping she plays Violet.
Also congrats on the no-deaths run! Things got really dicey a few times, but I guess the game couldn't bear to finish off any of your good puppers. A cat-only run would be fantastic!
I wait for your video. I really like the videos. A big fan of yours ❤❤
As you said, the eevees are foxes and would count under dogs for this challenge. I do see how espeon is way more catlike, though-
I think Vaporeon should be more on the dog side, actually, but hey.
Is it weird that I see Vaporeon as a catfish?
@@TylerAngelle hmmm you do have a point. That pun gets it cat points in my mind alone. I mean. It makes sense with the water type!
Espeon being more cat on the cat/dog spectrum actually explains why she's my fav eeveelution
Amazing reference to Cats and Dogs at :39, that was one of my favorite movies as a kid
Whoever views Flareon as a dog immediately needs a laser eye surgery appointment.
I loved the play through and would really love to see you do a cat play through!
" thats right ya idiot, you got zeke'd " IS SENDING ME I LOVE IT ( i havent finished the video but thank you for this )
thanks flygon! thanks to this video and one of your viewers I got the very best Christmas gift my family and I could ask for!!!!
you've always been my favorite nuzlocker but this video just made it even more true
When I saw only dogs I was like, “yep, this is a guy who deserves a sub”
Also I finished the entire victory road before fighting ANY team star

I have been waiting for someone to do this.
I absolutely love the dog pokemon!
This is actually how I played my first scarlet playthrough!! No nuzlocke but I'm glad the dog appreciation is here!
