It's also possible for does to have horns even when the species doesn't normally have them its just super rare I've only seen it once and only know of a few people claiming to have got them.
and the deer varieties where both genders have antlers also typically shed them at different times. Male reindeer shed their antlers in late fall, but female reindeer keep their antlers through winter and shed them in the spring
Fun fact about male angler fish: once they latch onto a female, it loses most of it's organs to become, essentially, a pair of gonads providing sperm on demand
Sawsbuck's whole thing is the changes trees go through when seasons change. Taking away the tree like antlers would defeat its whole theme. I'd bet my top dollar thats why they didn't do that
They should've at least make the antlers shorter on the female sawbucks, since female reindeers have shorter antlers than male reindeer or they should make the antlers longer on the males.
@@crylec6534 unfortunately they seem to have abandoned the more subtle differences after Gen 4, since Gen 5 and onwards only includes the more major ones, like Unfezant's plumage and Meowstic's coloration. The only one they've added since was Eevee, and probably only so you could tell if the Partner Eevee in Let's Go Eevee was female (the game generates your partner pokemon when you start a new save, and the ine of the first things you see is Pikachu or Eevee's tail, and Pikachu already had a tail based gender difference)
Yeah, There’s a ton of really cool flightless birds they could lean into for inspiration for one. Considering it’s one of the few gen 1 pokemon to not get any special forms (besides I s gender difference which barely counts since the neck difference was already a thing, just between evolutions instead of gender) or new signature moves etc. it would make a good candidate for one soon. Maybe a casowary themed fighting and/or dark type form for an Australia region?
It's not all that surprising. Keeping a design consistent and recognizable is an important factor off marketability, that's why gender differences were first introduced as small details. But that fell out of use because it meant keeping those small details consistent across multiple production lines. So starting from generation 6 gender differences were made more drastic and became central aspects of design concept
@@DanielPereira-ey9nt Unless you're eevee which got a gender difference in lets go to... be equal to Pikachu I guess. Which got carried over to the rest o fthe games.
@@mertensiam3384 There are actually a bunch of cases like that, often due to Evolutions being introduced after they stopped introducing minor gender differences (i.e. Scyther -> Kleavor, Sneasel -> Sneasler), but there's cases of it in the original set too, like Gligar -> Gliscor. Technically there's also the Combee situation.
Genderbent Lanturn deserves should be his own Pokémon. If anything, we’re well overdue for another anglerfish. Maybe give it the Vespiquen/Salazzle treatment.
100% we need an anglerfish pokemon that actually looks scary! Maybe the male could fuse with the female when she evolves, but the evolved female gets the males' ability
@@rattyeely that sounds awesome Like you have the female at the evolving level and you have the male in your party, when the female evolves the male "disappears" and the female gains a new ability
I always thought it was supposed to be white tailed deer which are native to New York while reindeer only exist on a farm in New York to my knowledge and it's very rare for white tailed does to have antlers.
It seems like my first comment didn't go through so I'm trying again sorry if it did and im spamming but I'm pretty sure sawsbuck is based on white tailed deer bc they're native to New York while reindeer aren't but there is a farm for them in New York. White tailed doe don't normally have horns which is what I think is why he made one without.
For people talking about Reindeer. Male Reindeer grow larger antlers than females Reindeer. complex palmation structure in males and simpler, smaller and strait beam in females & morphologies at the antler base can be differentiated between concave and convex. The female & male shed their antlers in different seasons Males in Fall/winter & females in Summer/spring. Then the most known species of deer, the White tail deer, the female don't grow antlers. If Sawsbuck is based on deer the female shouldn't have antlers & if it's based on Reindeer the female should have them shorter ,but Sawbuck looks more base on a deer. Stanler is the one that looks more like a reindeer.
That picture of the cassowary is not a male and female, that is most likely a male and a juvenile. The only visible sexual dimorphism cassowaries have is size, females are usually much larger than males. Also(like all ratites) it is the male cassowaries that hatch the eggs and raise the chicks, the females just mate, lay the eggs, and bounce. Also also, dodo birds apparently did have sexual dimorphism, the females were apparently much lighter and had shorter beaks.
I made a first form evolution of Doduo and Dodrio, named it Dodu, it's a fluffy happy little one headed Doduo with TINY little itty bitty, happy lil wings that most definitely are so small, they disappear into the feathers when it evolves into Doduo.
Male lantern is so cute 😂 id love them ti do more extreme gender differences where BOTH options are useful in different ways, not like combee or salazzle but like indeedee or meowstic
I'd love to see an elephant seal pokemon. Female is part of a two-stage evolutionary line but male gets a third evolution based on the big-nosed beachmaster and becomes Water/Fighting type
The cheek pads are called flanges, and only some males have them. Flanged Males tend to be bigger, more aggressive, and not as quick. Unflanged Males are thinner, less aggressive overall (but still dangerous), and move quickly. The behavioral strategies they use to attract mates are totally different too!
Dangerous is a relative term. I'm pretty sure there has never been a case of a human getting killed by an orangutan, and the very few attacks that have happened were only because the human was heavily agitating the orangutan. And again, the human didn't die. Orangutans are pretty chill, especially compared to chimps or even gorillas.
Orangutans aren’t aggressive even when males fight it’s mostly bluffing and usually the unflanged males have lower rank then flanged males and generally don’t pick fights with the other bigger males until they’re old enough to leave, develop flanges of their own and go find their own territory
@@amazingpiI think that’s what they mean by aggressive. They don’t pick fights and are thus lower in rank. Being aggressive doesn’t mean you’re physical or anything 😅 it can refer to what you said as well! For example you’d say a person yelling and threatening you is aggressive..they’re not being physical or anything or killing anyone just bluffing but it’s still labeled as aggressive behavior
Day 46 of asking- Could you make it to where the Applin line’s colors are reversed when they are shiny? So like with Appletun the apple on his head is green but the green portion of his body turns red. Same with dipplin and Hydrapple. Make the bodies that same orange/yellow/golden and make the apple green
I would love to see more of these, they always made pokemon feel way more real to me as a little kid that loved reading through animal encyclopedias and stuff. Didn't even know about the dodrio one 🤯
Reindeer are the only deer where female have antlers too. Not only this but male reindeer shed their antlers in the fall whereas female reindeer keep their antlers all year around.
I like the idea of more realistic gender differences for Pokémon, but I also kind of love that girl Sawsbuck get to have antlers, too. They can Mess You Up with those antlers if they have to and I really love that
Tbh it could be that Sawsbuck's antlers are actually wood branches (it's heavily implied cuz they're part Grass type and the branches grow foliage and change with the season)
Trivia: many species of deer do have antlers on the females. Actually, a lot do. It's a hormonal thing and even in the species where it isn't common, it also isn't unheard of
They should have kept up a lot of the gender differences. They just kinda gave up. They do it for a handful of special Pokémon like Indeedie, Meowstic, and Unfezant but they use to do different things for all of them. Even if it was something like a horn being smaller/larger.
Tbh Sawsbuck still having horns makes sense in the context of Pokemon having much more of a reason to keep them for fighting reasons, as it's implied all- or at least the majority of- pokemon have an instictive desire to battle. I imagine not having horns to protect it's newly hatched/born Deerling would just kind of be a disadvantage!
Something I'd like to see is an eclectus parrot pokemon. I bring that up here because they have entirely different colors. Females are red and purple, and males are green and yellow (and their beaks are colored like candy corn!)
Damn, that last one is a fantastic idea for an Aussie inspired region!!!🇦🇺 Where of course, alongside Australian Dodrio, we'll find Kangaskhan, Komala, Sharpedo, but also Cyndaquil, Krookodile, Jellicent, Espathra, and, oh god… Ariados, Galvantula, Araquanid, you name it😂🥴🕷️
I think that since a male Lanturn would be a different type, I think that it should be a different pokemon altogether, maybe a split gender evolution instead of a gender difference, since gender differences don't change the type.
Nahh I saw this short recommended because I’m always watching Hazbin Hotel vids💀💀 ( Alastor is in the show I’m talking about and he was killed mistaken as a deer and that’s the thumbnail for this video)
ngl, dodrio with the blue heads looks kinda sick. I actually REALLY like how it looks. If you showed me that I would've thought it was a regional variant or something. Oddly enough when you brought up Sawsdoe, I was immediately remindeed of how they never reall did the Nidoking/Nidoqueen thing since; stemming from sexual dimorphism but evolving into different pokemon.
The problem with sawsbuck (and I assume this is why they didnt make gender differences) is that they would have to make 4 more sprites, 1 for each season
Doduo and Dodrio could just be based on ratites in general as the whole group is just a bunch of fast-running flightless birds amd they named it after the dodo one of the most famous flightless birds also because they could make puns with it.
I'd love a Dondozo-Tatsugiri kind of team up with female and male Lanturn, where they would "fuse" or maybe just attach giving the F Lanturn a big power boost or a scary new form
If that were the case, Male and Female Lanturn should be combined like Reshiram/Zekram and Kyreum, gaining a Dark Stab, along with Water and Electric Also, Mantine should combine with Remoraid, gaining a new Water Attack (Spearfish Torpedo, a 2 attack Water attack that can't be blocked or affected by Reflect/Light Screen)
Dodrio could also be partially based on a Kiwi bird or Roadrunner but I guess they don’t have super major gender differences other than size.
Female reindeer have antlers in winter when males do not.
Plus 1 guy set up the names of at least the first 3 gens of pokemon
Sawsbuck is actually a reindeer, which are the exception, however in winter, females have antlers where the males have shed them entirely.
Dodrio is so complicated 😂
Did you know the dodo bird went extinct in 1681? It's neat how they are depicted as being extinct longer
Damn, the contrast between happy-go-lucky Lanturn and an actual angler fish that is pain incarnate is super funny.
Knowing that male Chincho would end up shrinking as they evolve is funny.
Pain incarnate makes sense. Male anglerfishes are basically just sex slaves.
@@coolguy5133I read Male Cinccino and got quite confused as to why would it evolve into Lanturn 😅😅
I mean Cosmog already evolves into something Smaller (Cosmoem) so I think it's normal for Chinchou.
Omg, yes 🤣🤣🤣
Female Reindeer have antlers so it still makes sense for Sawsbuck to have antlers.
Extra fun fact: only the female reindeer keep their antlers year long. Males lose them in winter.
The thing Kuro mentioned is even funnier when you realize that it implies Rudolph is even more of a mutant than we all thought. And all of Santa's other reindeer are girls rather than just Vixen.
Sawsbuck was based on a Père David's deer not a reindeer last I checked
@@kuroganekaze Female reindeer drop their antlers after calving in spring, males drop them late fall early winter after mating season is over
@@ZeroDimfair enough I always asumed it was an elk/raindeer Oh well easy fix just say males and females have the hormons that make antelers grow because in real deer if you give does Tesostrone they will grow antwlers.

I dont why, but I really appreciate that you acknowledged that some female deer species do have antlers
It's also possible for does to have horns even when the species doesn't normally have them its just super rare I've only seen it once and only know of a few people claiming to have got them.

I believe it's also because it's a reindeer which is one of the species where females do in fact have antlers
Also when they made Sawsbuck they designed with Horn Leech which wouldn’t make sense for female Sawsbuck with no antlers.
They should've at least make the antlers shorter on the female sawbucks, since female reindeers have shorter antlers than male reindeer or they should make the antlers longer on the males.

A moment of silence for the headless male Flormantis.
Tbh I don't really mind they look so similar. If they looked too different I would feel pressed to catch both genders lol
I actually had NO IDEA Dodrio had a different color neck based on their gender 🤯
Headcanon: it's called Sawsbuck because both sexes have antlers, being a unique trait for it, hence the name
Dodrio with cassowary color pattern is lowkey fire
I think it would be cool if deerling was a gender split evolution
I wish they did the gender difference with sawsbuck😭

Female deers do have Antlers. They just shed them more frequently
Honestly, I wish there were more differences than "female is smaller/has smaller parts". The Lanturn idea is such a cool concept.
They found night vision footage of a DoDo in Costa Rica
Its still crazy to think about that dodos just went extinct in the 16hundreds
Bro triggered my thalassophobia with that angler fish jump scare.
it would be cool if they made more differencies, yeah. I especially love the male lanturn design here, and the fact that it has a different type.
A regional Dodrio that’s a Cassowary will be sick to see…with Fire and Water typing
Dark is more like the evil type as opposed to the literal dark, that little guy should be water/normal
They should have kept up a lot of the gender differences. They just kinda gave up. They do it for a handful of special Pokémon like Indeedie, Meowstic, and Unfezant but they use to do different things for all of them. Even if it was something like a horn being smaller/larger.
1000% wish they went back to designing this way.
White and black was such a great game.
Male and female cassowari actually look virtually the same, except the female is bigger. What you showed was a juvenile cassowary with an adult.
I never knew Dodrio had gender differences on their neck color.

I think that since a male Lanturn would be a different type, I think that it should be a different pokemon altogether, maybe a split gender evolution instead of a gender difference, since gender differences don't change the type.

There’s only so much data space on a gameboy cartridge 😂
If that were the case, Male and Female Lanturn should be combined like Reshiram/Zekram and Kyreum, gaining a Dark Stab, along with Water and Electric
Also, Mantine should combine with Remoraid, gaining a new Water Attack (Spearfish Torpedo, a 2 attack Water attack that can't be blocked or affected by Reflect/Light Screen)
They didn’t do the sawsbuck one cause they probably didn’t have budget/didn’t really want to do 8 different forms of them
I’d be super down for more gender differences in pokemon.
They really should do more gender differences
A casawary dotrio and doduo would be awesome regional variants
man how did my idiotic self not realize the differences on Dodrio’s neck?!
