Gnoggin, hosted by its creator Lockstin, is a show delving into the mysteries of Pokemon! (and other games sometimes too). Explaining everything there is to explain! Why is each Pokemon given the type it has? What are their origins? What is the lore of the Pokemon world and the design inspirations? And what does it all have to do with alchemy? Let's Go find out! - Ігри
I know. I said Shiinotic wrong... twice
Hello
All is forgiven

Good luck with your future videos and good work
The gen 8 addition for the “NOT TYPE” series should be called “STILL NOT”
Klefki borrows specifically from Pagan folklore, where faeries were blamed for small items, like keys, going missing
Thank you.
Yup. You got things missing its the fae.
It's also based on the fact that people would use iron charms (not just horseshoes) to ward off fairies, which supports the steel type and how it's strong against other fairies.
Dude! I do that. Ever since How To Train Your Dragon.
Its a steal fairy type....

I read one interesting interpretation of Ribbombee’s fairy typing on TV Tropes. Honey flies are cute, but they also eat bee larvae, then lay their own eggs in their place. The bees then raise the honey fly larvae, mistaking them for their own. This is very similar to the legends of changelings - Fairies would take away a human child, and then replace them with a shape-shifted fairy, with the human parents being none the wiser. I don’t know if this was intentional, but it’s cool to think about nonetheless.

SELKIE.

Plus... Sirens have wings.
@Beckham Pang they do?!
20:30
AsterOrca - Ah, That would certainly explain the prior evolution of Syrentide being named "Selkid" in Pokemon Uranium...
@@ewitzluce7627 yes. Sirens are winged women. They aren't part fish at all
It's mainly because of their association with birdsong that's why they are shown with wings.
Primarina's "Siren/Mermaid/Seal" thing is a singular fairy. Selkie.
Zivillyn theres also a greek seal dog monster I forgot the name of so yeeeeeaaaaah
@@chickennuggetman6145 If I remember the Percy Jackson books correctly, I assume you're talking about the Telekhines, or Telchines. They almost fit, but they're considered demons in Greek mythology, and they're not associated with song like Primarina is. Selkies are both faeries and songstresses.
@@chickennuggetman6145 Cetus? The one where Perseus rescues Andromeda from? It's also a constallation.
Finally I'm not the only who noticed!
Zivillyn exactly
What I would say about the Azumarill line being Fairy type is this: Azurill, Marill and Azumarill are based on rabbits. I know you said that would not directly explain their fairy type, but in many cultures, including Japanese culture, rabbits are a symbol of the moon. And the moon has a lot of things to do with fae activity.
I would also say that rabbits are also connected to Alice in Wonderland, which is quite magical and whimsical so I would understand that connection of it being a fairy. Of course it's not the greatest justification but it works.
Azumarill in particular also has a clear connection to the Easter Bunny, as its body resembles an Easter Egg.
Ok-
And water and tides.
I really wish that was the reason, but "rabbit' isn't enough when every other rabbit gets the normal typing. Perhaps they decided it worked in combination with Azumarill's lifeguard aspects, but if that's the case, they still made the wrong decision. Ninetales should have been Fire/Fairy, Blissey should be Normal/Fairy, Ralts and Kirlia should have stayed pure Psychic, the Hattrem line should have the Fairy typing throughout the line, Galarian Rapidash should be have stayed pure Psychic... They've made lots of mistakes when it comes to giving the Fairy typing, but at least _most_ of them make sense. The ones I mentioned above are the only ones that still don't make sense to me. Even Dedenne works (albeit barely) so I'd say that's a pretty good track record in the end.
9:56 it wasn't just that they thought that the Plague was airborne, they thought that the bad smell in the air/the "bad air" itself (or, as they called it, the "Miasma") *was* the Plague itself, and so they believed that by filling the mask with "Nice Smells", they would be protected from the "bad Air" that caused disease
And that's how the word malaria was born.
“They were wrong.” I just crack up at that transition for some reason.
5:07 Actually, we more often call it "candy floss." I believe that it more commonly goes by "fairy floss" in Australia.
an australian can confirm
nope we dont call it that ether
in qld we do
I was going to say, but I cannot match your clear expertise in all things British.
slightly less bogan than texans but yep pretty much
5:07 it's candy floss in Britain. Fairy floss is australian
I was about to comment this lol
@@sonicjhiq This isn't the first time I've heard that either. I guess it's just a common misconception.
@@TheMANGADUDE2 Americans always gets the british and Australian dialects mixed up lol
i hate that people mix up us with australians
@@sonicjhiq I didn't realise it happened so often
Do you think Azumarill may be inspired by the Easter Bunny? It's body has an egg shape to it with a bubble design on it. Also of course it's a rabbit and perhaps a Moon Rabbit?
And it’s shiny basically is a Easter bunny
Isn't the moon associated with the sea?
There is a famous moon rabbit fairy tale in Japan and the moon is associated with both water and magic with makes Azumarill being water fairy type perfect.
Primarina i think was based more on Selkies, which are kinda like mermaids but WAY nicer to humans. And their songs often affect other fae spirits and can even heal the ill and dying.
I only support the thought style because I can now identify as a sea lion both digitally and literally

If we get a region based on Greece, we need a Fairy type satyr Pokemon.
I suppose a Satyr would be Fairy/Grass. Or maybe a female counterpart based on a nymph could be the Grass type.
A minotaur pokemon or even cerbeus would be awesome!
Medusa Pokèmon type dark,rock
why wait, we had pandas and luchadors in france!
Ooh it could be like a pseudo legendary like lucario and it would get a movie
"They hate steel! It's poison to them!"

"gamefreak sees fairy as the pink type"
Basically just predicted sword and shield
*Opal intensifies*
how about grimmsnarl? galarian weezing?
Hero Of Many Battles Zacian and Zamazenta?
@@fairytease4012 Okay, here's explanations (or attempts at them) for Gen-8's new Fairy-types:
- *Galarian Rapidash:* A unicorn. A fully-developed unicorn, to explain why Ponyta don't have it yet.
- *Galarian Weezing:* It purifies toxins, making it more nature-friendly than its Kantonian version.
- *Hatterene:* A forest witch. Witches were often seen in the same ballpark as fairies, especially when they were associated with the woods.
- *Impidimp line:* Imps, goblins, and ogres - which at a time were seen as types of fairies, albeit of an uglier and more brutish variety.
- *Milcery and Alcremie:* Sweets being generated by magic (as both have magic words in their names).
- *Zacian:* Not quite as clear, but it could mainly be because of its more feminine details (like its long twin braids and the tufts near its eyes that look like feminine eyelashes). Some Dex entries call it Zamazenta's elder sister, even. Some believe that Zacian could also have some connection to either the Lady of the Lake (the one who provided Excalibur) or Morgan le Fay (King Arthur's sister).
Grimsnarl: *I AM RIGHT HERE!*
It's worth noting that Alolan Ninetales may also draw some inspiration from the four Hawaiian goddesses of snow, I think especially Poli'ahu, due to Alolan locals mistaking it for a deity itself. Gods and goddesses could be likened to exceptionally powerful fae in a sense, so that could contribute as well.
LeopardBunny Apparently its Sword dex entry also says it’s connected to a deity, and that it was believed to be the incarnation of said deity long ago. That’s a good reason for being Fairy type if I ever heard one.
How about explaining Abilities once you're done with the moves?
This would be nice.
They said in a previous video that they'd be doing this.
@@inkmaster5480 damn good news. Thank you!
Cute charm: fall in love with what you were trying to kill
I find that Fairy type theming can be divided into two groups - the "Fairies" and the "Fae."
"Fairy" Fairy-types tend to be the widely benevolent ones, often being the ones that generally are supportive or timid.
Clefable, for example, is noted to have sensitive hearing, and is established as being very timid.
Mega Audio is already known in its base form for being a dedicated healer.
And then we have the "Fae" Fairy-types. Several of them are noted to be mischevious assholes that may or may not be evil, sometimes mabipulative, or otherwise completely ignore you unless you make what they percieve as a transgression, at which point they'll attack. Many of them have strange or unsettling traits mentioned in game as well..
For example, Sylveon's ribbons are noted to be feelers which it uses to lull its prey into a false sense of security so that they drop their guard.
Hatterene causes headaches by simply being *around* it, and if you're too loud, will try to *kill* you. Not joking. Shield's Pokedex entry specifically says "If you're too loud around it, you risk being *torn apart* by the claws on its tentacle." Did I fail to mention that Hatterene's dynamax form is referred to as "Raging Goddess?"
5:15 I'm French and I just died of laughter when you said Mille-Feuilles "Miyae fooeyae" It's actually Mille like Milk but without the k and feuilles like... Fun but replace the n by a y (and it's litteraly translated as "Thousand-sheets"
I cringed a lot there. I'm not French, but Canadian and familiar enough with French to know how to say it. I always think it's bizarre when people don't... look up the pronunciation of words they're going to use in videos. I see TONS of U.S. Americans say French words completely wrong on the internet and I'm just like "what the hell, you can look it up!"
@@mastermarkus5307 OK you get points for the you could've looked it up argument but is it that unreasonable to have trouble pronouncing words you've never heard when french has so many silent letters?
@@okaminokuro
No, but the way he said it hurt me physically.
J'étais plier en 2 quand il a dit milles feuilles🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s something so minor you’re just looking for something to trigger you. Funny a majority of us knew what he was talking about despite the pronunciation. Not really that big of a deal. It’s helpful to correct, sure, but the snarky comment that you can’t stand how people don’t look up pronunciations just comes across as petty. ;)
They should have made Milotic Water Fairy type instead of the Maril line.
now u mention it theat would worked and makes alot of sense
Why not both?
Would make sense since it's partially based on a goddess as well as a fairytale, which fits my quota
@DBfan 84 but that would defeat the purpose of it being based on the story of the Ugly Duckling
Or at least added a fairy mega milotic...it’s my fav so I’m Super salty
Lockstin: Imagine having balls on your forehead!
Magmar: *nervous laughter*
Lol
Castform:
*Forehead? Tell me about it...*
Lockstin: gives a valid reason as to why the azurill line should be part fairy (also the fact that azumarill is in the EXACT shape of a lapis lazuli).
Also Lockstin: completely dismisses his statement and thinks they shouldn’t be fairy type.
I've always seen the Gardevoir line of appearing like Ljosalfar, Norse Light Elves
20:27 - 20:34 you forgot that Primarina was somewhat inspired by Selkies.
Primarina is based on Selkies: merfolk that wear seal skin instead of literally being half marine-animal
Cutiefly also has some inspiration from the fairyfly, even though fairyflies are more related to wasps than flies.
I think I know why Marill and its evolutionary line are fairy type. Aside from the common associations of rabbits and mice with fairy tale creatures, Azumarill's body shape and design could resemble the common designs of Easter eggs, and since Easter is and activity of joy and love (similar to the Ralts and Togepi evolutionary lines), then the fairy type makes sense.
Still wondering why Game Freak didn't make Celebi a fairy Pokemon too
What if Celebi has Psychic type because it was genetically engineered by people in the far future but no one in Pokemon's current time period realizes it? Like, maybe nature took a huge blow multiple thousands of years in Pokemon's future and creating a pokemon that can heal nature through scientific ways led to Celebi's time travel powers being psychokinetic to some extent while it's affinity with plant life was more direct Grass type energy than fae?
Shadius Sokralio
That’s what I was wondering for all of the small Legendaries.
Victini would definitely fit the Fairy typing! Don’t you think?
Probably because changing the type of a legendary might be seen as drastic
why didn't Cresselia get fairy type? even more fairy then celebi and no second type
because it’s a fairy
Primarina is also based on a selkie. Water fae creatures who can also shape shift into beautiful women. Myths say that when a man wanted to marry one they would steal they fur coat. Selkies would become sad and sing at full moon nights near the sea in a melancholic way, you know, just like Primaria´s dex entries say
Lockstin: goes super in depth with every Pokémon on this list with his research
Also Lockstin: “Primarina is a mermaid-seal-siren thingie”
*Lockstin your hatred for Primarina is showing*
I think Fairy type has a rather significant connection to happiness/positivity/purity/goodness/etc. Despite its name not necessarily suggesting as such, it's essentially the opposite of dark type. So that may help to explain some fairy typings without the need to resort to explanations which may otherwise be farfetched.
The thing is that not every fairy type pokemon is happy/positive/"pure"/good/etc. similarly to the different faeries and other folkloric creatures they are based off.
@@bastienlafleur5838 Not every fairy pokemon is a fairy either, so it works both ways. In fact a large amount of them don't really qualify as a "fairy" at all, especially not without using any leaps of logic. Pokemon types, especially the more unusual ones like psychic, typically have several major themes in them.
@@KirbyGotenksabsorbed That's why I specified "other folkloric creature" and while a large amount of fairy type pokemon have a cheery, cute and kind behaviour/design going on, their inspirations are far from that. Their inspirations seem to be what defines them as fairy type pokemons much more than their design and such (with their designs obviously being inspired off and taking elements from the creatures or beings they are based off depending on how faithful the developers stay to the source-material). It's why a lot of pokemon (usually normal) could be switched to the fairy type after it was introduced. On a designing level, most fairy type pokemon are cute and PINK so too atract more younger and feminine people but on a conceptual level, it's pretty clear that they are not just cute/optimistic/happy/kind/etc. In fact a lot of fairy type pokemons who follow closer the source-material they were based off start from being mischievous, purely territorial, neutral or somewhat "evil"(at least to the more widespread human consept of evil) just like the many folkloric creatures and concepts they are based off. And while, yeah, not all the fairy type pokemons are based off of faeries, they are based off of creatures that are very similar. Like the Yo-kai. They aren't faeries but they are very similar in the fact that they vary in shape and size, origins, they are usually mischievous (there is more but I don't think you want me to go into details) and have different supernatural and magic abilities or/and properties. Basically, the fairy type pokemons themselves may vary from being nice, happy, jolly and cute or mischievous, sly, "neutral", etc. (most usually being the cute type) but still have one thing in common which is their inspirations. Supernatural and spiritual creatures, that are tied to nature, are usually mischievous or "neutral" (sometimes "evil") and are tied to mysticism and magic. Now, why they called it the fairy type? I have no Idea. Maybe because, it's a term that they though western audiences would recognize better than the "yo-kai" type or because a larger amount of fairy type pokemon are based off of faeries than other fokloric creatures (or both).
there are two types of fairy pokemon
1. the Fae
2. magical girl
I always thought azumarill was a fairy because he's an easter egg-shaped rabbit
He's based off of the Velveteen Rabbit fairytail. A plush rabbit becomes real but retains his blue fur
LOL I remembered someone had a shiny Azumarill on gen 6 named Boiled Egg! XD
Yeah it also has links to the Luna rabbit of Chinese mythology
@@arceusflute369
Huh, I don't remember the rabbit ever being blue...
@@mastermarkus5307 My bad, bro. I was wrong. My book had it important that he was blue
23:15 Fully grown adult man freaking out over how cute little bees are.
This is why i love the internet.
UwU
Both: were too cute, you can't harm us
My guess for Spritzee and Aromatisse being Fairy is largely shared with what is said in the video. Throughout history, Fey energy and Fairy mysticism is usually seen as more feminine and beautiful, whereas Draconic energy and Dragon mythos is seen as more masculine and powerful. Seeing as Dragon and Fairy are opposite sides of each other, and Aromatisse exhibits many "feminine" qualities, Fairy typing would fit
I mean, alchemists WERE scientists. The entirety of chemistry is built on the findings of alchemists.
Yea like, the only reason there should even be any distinction between the two other than scientist not being a common/existing/ect. term back then is the fact some alchemists likely had to bend their research findings to the whim of religion for their own safety. After all it was a time where you could be burned alive for trying to explain why rainbows aren't an act of God, for instance.
True, I just like being more specific. "scientist" is about as broad as you can be besides "smart guy."
@@Gnoggin That's a fair point. Like calling a spider an arthropod, I guess.
@Lockstin & Gnoggin I have a feeling that we may get to see this scientist's lab in Sword&Shield, so we' ve yet to discover just what kind of science he/she practiced (Aside from regular ol' PokéScience, of course).
They weren't scientists because they didn't use the scientific method. A real scientist would have admitted that alchemical models were wrong when every lead-to-gold experiment based on those models failed.
I like Fairy types and all but it's been 8 generations and we still don't have a Fire and Ice type
It’s a type that doesn’t make sense.
Just Some Guy without a Mustache I’m pretty sure they are going to make one for sours and sheild
Well we’ve got volcanion (water/fire type)
Lucienne Lücke nigga ever heard of Dry Ice?
@@estheay3611 But that makes sense. Steam.
Ah, yes. The fan-favorite Togepi family, proudly para-flinching the hell out of anything since 2006.
Fairy-type also embody dreams, fantasy and things that bring happiness. Perfumes and fragrances are enjoyed by many, male and female, pleasant smells trigger certain positive emotions in us. I think that can be represented in the Fairy-type, so it makes sense for Spritzee and Aromatisse to be Fairy. This can apply to Swirlix and Slurpuff. Sweets, pastries and cakes are enjoyed by many and bring joy. I can use this theory to explain a lot of Fairy Pokemon and relate it to their origins.

@@spicybeantofu Then you're my enemy... I HATE FURRIES!!!!
The Brazillian folklore you mentioned, the saci, is pronounced sah-SEE.
Spritzee and Aromatise do actually have origins that tie into being fairy type. Alongside being based on plague doctors and the herbs in their masks, they're also based on perfume bottles, which ties in well to the whole herb filled mask aspect of the plague doctor theme but also... a lot of perfume bottles and their advertisements use very fairy-esque, ethereal, and paradise-y imagery and aesthetics, hence fairy type.
You explained why Mimikyu is a Ghost type in this video, not why it's a Fairy type. It's a Fairy-type Pokémon because it's partially based on the Bugul Noz, a fairy spirit.
Azumarill seems to be partially based on The Hare of Inaba (kojiki version)
In the story, the hare was a kami (Japanese Shinto god/spirit) and tricked a bunch of sea monsters (I think they were like sharks, hence Azumarill's coloration) to make a bridge from an island to the mainland. When the shark monsters figured out they were tricked, the last one skinned the hare with one bite.
The hairless hare (hehe) was then found on the beach by another great Kami (I forget his name) and his procession of brothers, who were on their way to propose to the princess of Inaba. The Hare pleaded for their help, but the brothers told him to wash in the salt water so he would sting. The great kami, however, felt pity and told the hare to wash in the fresh water stream and dry himself with the cottonweeds that grew near, restoring his fur. After he did this, the hare revealed himself to be a kami and guaranteed that the princess of Inaba would marry the great Kami
@@kupaakaleo137 okunūshi I think

I think it would make sense for Aromatisse to be a poison type as well, given its plague doctor origins.

@@thesleepyreader YES! IF YOU'RE GONNA USE THE WORD ITS AS A PRONOUN, YOU *CANNOT* USE THE APOSTROPHE!
This has been a long time coming. I’m excited to see every fairy type Pokémon explained. I even went back and watched all the other types again before this one.
Don't look up carbuncle.
*Looks up carbuncle* "REEEEEEE"
*Looks up carbuncle gem* "That makes much more sense."
I am going to have nightmares now
Dear god...
why not
Lockstin: if Altaria switched from dragon to fairy, it would be the most drastic type change ever!
Alolan Marowak: am I a joke to you?
Also isn’t Azumarill also based on the moon rabbit?
Alolan Marowak is a different forme outright rather than a change to the base mon, so doesn't really count.
@@sinteleon no I mean it’s a ghost fire type that evolves from a pure ground type
@@waverider6302 Massive changes in type on evolution/forme change isn't new (outright changes in base type like eevee, gaining new secondary types like rotom, changes in secondary type like Fletchling, and yes, there's also a previous change of ground to ghost, like shedinja).
The issue is changing the base type of what it was originally in previous generations.
@@sinteleon that doesn’t change anything about how drastic a change it is. Every other regional form doesn’t have this problem
@@waverider6302 the type change was to regular altaria going from dragon flying to fairy flying which would be a much more drastic change than the former narmol types turn fairy or gaining a fairy typing dragon and fairy arelike dark and psychic in their relations
so nice that "Saci Pererê" appears on the video, our folklore is really interesting and even has a show named "Sitio do Pica Pau Amarelo", great video btw
“Saki”
When you run out of moves, I would love a Type weaknesses explained... Cause, not all of them are intuitive.
NOT weak to water?
**shows pure fire types**
I believe MandJTV made a video like that
Can’t wait for the “Not gen 8?!” Video next year
I think azumaril is very good fairy type, but moon is not only good for fairy powers, but it works on water magic too, and they are rabbits, in japanese legend rabbits come from the moon.
I had seen such references in Ninja hattori, Doraemon etc
So uh. Did you ever end up uploading that additional notes video?
I thought primarina was much more reminiscent of a selkie than a mermaid or siren.
Matthew Hannebohm same!
Looks like he didn't bother looking deep with this one
It definitely has inspiration from all three
only if you know that one ^^. there is an even better fit, but I forgot how it is called and my research does not come up with anything right now
This was a fun series, may I suggest a “every shiny form explained” series?
That would be extremely interesting.
Gen 2-5; "hey are all based on an algorithm for shifting the color values."
It's really not that interesting at all.
@@firebird1080 yeah but it could be fun to theorize why some shiny pokemon look the way they do. One of my theories is that their shiny forms is how they used to look like before a genetic change in their genes to adapt, like how mankind selected which wolves get to breed to inherit genes that make them smaller and cuter. My head cannon is that Charizards were originally black with red wings but they didn't fight as much compare to these new orange Charizards because they didn't look as threatening and that caused female Charizards to choose an orange mate as they fight more and provened their strength. Sorry for the long reply, this was supposed to be a simple response because I like these "every (blank) explained" videos and I got side tracked.
Looking at this again I think the Sylph inspiration was just subtly included, in some animations sylveon does little hops and you can see it falls back to the ground oddly slowly... I'd figure that somewhat ties into a wind elemental's abilities.
For the Azumarill line you could also link it to the Chinese myth of the Moon Rabbit. It’s a bit of a stretch though since nothing about the Pokémon really indicates any sort of connection to this origin.
21:03 He, fun fact: the card “Crystal Bond” has one the most adorable pictures ever.
Lockstin & Gnoggin: We Finish All Types
Pokemon Sword and Shield: Allow Me Make New Called "Sound"
There is no real evidence for Sound type. Only rumors made up by dumb people trying to get likes.
Do Yall Know is Joke right geez
SaturnPower I’m trying to go blind, but ik sound is not a type. Too close to normal.
@@amberharpoonminecraft4322 Then Light? Or Materials
21:19 haha he said the funny word
20:27 And they nick your stuff during the ‘MediEvil’ times.
AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
NOT AGAIN
Lockstin at 11:00 are you telling me that Aromateese is supposed to get girls into Pokémon. That ugly Abomination. A while ago you mentioned a Beast or Abomination type. Aromatees is the best Pokémon for that. It’s sad that Spritzee a cute Pokémon has to turn into that.
Pineapple Hater I wish Miasmedic (a fakemon in Pokémon Uranium) was canon. It suits Spritzee a million times better than Aromatisse!
there is an fairymon already and it is a waifu so... look it up?
edit: also, the Marill line might be based on the Easter rabbit, I mean just look at Azumarill, it's a literal Easter egg!!!
Vicente Feng Zhong no, the Easter bunny is not an inspiration for it. They are based on rabbits, mice, beach balls, and floatation devices
Lockstin: "H2O molecule with a face"
Me: "Since when was Castform a fairy type?"
5:51
listen sir, don't worry about what I do in my bosses office!!!
Three things.
1. The ancient Britain tribe, the Celtics, is pronounced KELL-tick. Hard C sound like in cake and carrot.
2. Part of Klefki's design is from the tradition of mothers tying iron key's' to their babies back in the day to keep fairies away. Klefki is humorously collecting them.
3. Primarina is also inspired by the myth of the Scottish Selkie, a Celtic story. They were magical SEALS who shed their skin and became beautiful women when on land.
The "tooth fairy" is also a mouse in Spain and Latin America. In Argentina specifically he's called El Raton Perez (Perez, the mouse), idk if it has other names in other countries
On the german equivalent of Bulbapedia, I read that Aromatisse is actually also based on a goblin, explaining the Fairy typing.
"Of course they have fur what else would this be?"
*points at jigglypuff's forehead fur*
"A TUMOR?!"
I'M DEAD 😂😂😂💀💀💀
Could be an resonator or echochamber.... Amplifying it's singing. So fur not vital.
"Final type"
Game freak: observe *adds another type*
Gun type
Togekiss to me seems inspired by rabbits as well (in addition to everything you said about avian and wind). You mentioned the lack of beak and talons, to me those traits looked to be replaced with rabbit-like traits. Which actually ties in the egg theme with easter bunny and all. And spreading happiness. Then you got to the Audino/Azumarill rabbit part and I think it ties in even better now.
Aaaaah so happy about the fairy video!!! Mawile is my favorite Pokemon, and fairy is my favorite type in general, so safe to say I was hyped, and I'm surprised it took me a month to get around to actually watching!!!
I plan on showing the omnibus to my friend who is just starting to get into pokemon to help her learn and remember pokemon because your videos give so much great information
At best, I associate Azumarill with Easter since it looks like a rabbit crossed with a painted egg, but by that logic, why is it water type?
It's also a beach ball
And I do agree with you
Google search "the hare of inaba"
It works perfectly for me
I'd argue it's more fairy than water XD
Because Pokemon can be based on more than one thing.
😭WHY DID IT HAVE TO END...😭
Now time to see the whole move series!
Lol what if Game Freak was to introduce a 19th type out of nowhere in gen 9
@@estheay3611 More video's, that's what. Yay!
"Lockstin did hard research to explain origins in every Pokemon"
Primerina: thinks it's just a dog mermaid seal thing than a selkie, a magical sea fey creature aka seal mermaid.
I think the reason Spritzee and Aromatise have the Plague Doctor type is likely due to the fact that Fairytales were made or became popular around the time Plague Doctors started popping up.
