Today, I'm talking about Fire Pokemon - which means this episode is GONNA GET LIT! Ever wonder how a Charmander keeps his tail lit, even when submerged in water? Or how you can create a fire tornado just by opening your mouth? Well I'm having my buddy Grant Thompson -The King of Random himself- come on to help me solve those mysteries!

How many mats could matpat pat if matpat could pat mats?
Probably like three.
4...
But hey! That's just a theory, a game theory.
Project IF literally the best tounge twister ever
probably more mats to pat than a catpat can pat
idk but, how many lowes can rob lowe rob if rob lowe can rob lowes
That moment when a kid left his Charmander on a rock in the rain essentially killing it, knowing full well it’d die if it stayed there with its tail out.
Pretend that theres a pokemon battle nearby and a Blastoise used rain dance and a dragonite used hurricane it could be pokemon battle or just rain
yep that was a P.O.S kid.
The confusing thing is... Didn't that become Ash's pokemon? And LATER... As a charizard... Right? Or is charizard the second form? Eh! The one with wings! At that point it just full on out ignored Ash. Some nonsense about them not recognizing him as a good trainer. Realistically though? That's right... Ash just kept going from gym to gym, never working on catching AND TRAINING wild pokemon. Sucks to be on team Ash. I bet Gary (I think was the Eng. dub name) wasn't such a slouch. :I Plus? He had TWO experienced trainers travelling with him! HELLO?! How did they ever get left in charge of any gym...? At least the games had them STAYING in the gyms... And they generally knew what they did... But in the show? They seemed oblivious. :I
@@nd7042 the games were made before the anime
Yeah I wouldn't do that to a charmander
Rest in peace Grant

Spoiler alert
This man just made me realize that Charmanders are even better than I thought
Bulbasaur is the best gen 1 starter
Reasons: double type since first form, effective against the first 3 gym leaders straight up at the start, (super effective to the first two), grows up faster, has sleep powder and poison powder, that can be used to easily catch more pokemon as you adventure
i like ur logic
@@tacticalgaming307 thanks, bud
Worse yet, Fire Spin in earlier games prevented the opponent from being able to move, use items or, terrifyingly enough, escape the battle.
But deals barley any dmg
fire spin is op if it does that
pokemon is drinking diesel and oil
@@t.e.a4357 It would be horrifying if you were poisoned as well while the move is in effect
And it makes sense given they are in the middle of a fire tornado

1980-2019
This legit made me cry inside but not outside. I can only cry when feeling pain. I'm emotionally tough. My defence stat is high like Blastoise. I chose Squirtle in my first game.
Im pretty sure he was actually born in 1981. Everyone was saying that 1980 was wrong and I've seen a lot of people say its actually 1981 but Idk.
I'm sad
Do not bring that here I’m trying to get away from that

officer jenny just nicknamed her growlithe arcanine ahead of time and then forgot to give it a fire stone so now its stuck with that name. "problem solved!"
the most legitimate depiction of what trainers do in the games making it into the anime right here.
7:30 lol. Remeber that you can name your Pokémon whatever you want, so maybe Officer Jenny named her Poké Arcanine.
Good point 🤔
Makes sense
imagine the fire on the charmander evo line just being one long flatulence

-Dear MatPat
This is my job
-Sincerely, Austin
Actually all 3 starters have their merits:
-Bulbasaur is the most veristile and all out most consistent starter
-Squirtle has the best stats from these starters (talking more about Blastoise here) and is good team anker
-Charmander would usualy be my last choice, since the other2 make the start a cakewalk, but he is a good firetype and if you don't take him it will take a while until you get another usefull firetype.
Orkan Unless you get iron claw before meeting Brock. But still, synthesis, leech seed and giga drain 4 life (literally)
The arcanine growlithe, the charizard charmander... I still don't understand how he deevolved in the snow episode

@@Unknown-bi7mf kid you dont get it its not a joke read it
You know how the FBI has a file on the MythBusters? Your file is probably growing quite large after you messed with thermite and firewhirls.
Bulbasaur is the best, because the first gym is rock type, and bulbasaur is grass type. Rock is weak to grass. The second gym is water type, and water is weak to grass. Since Charmander is fire type, and fire is weak to water, said charmander would be dead faster. Squirtle is water type, and water type resists itself. Thus, squirtle wouldn’t do anything to any of Misty’s pokémon. And so, said bulbasaur is the best starte-

When I was younger I named my Pokémon there fully evolved to troll random online trainer battles

omg ur a genius
*I named a kakuna pikachu*
Commander 0108 try to reverse it they would think it was a charmander but it would be a charizard
@@RosaRodriguez-gp3gn *or name a kakuna pikachu* I really did that :>
I like the intro, i vibe to it when I'm bored or when i watch game, film and food theory
Charmander is the best gen 1 starter for me
You know what'd be awesome,
'Game theory, REMASTERED!'
Mat takes his old theories that he made long ago and he uses new information that has surfaced up since the last 2-6 years that could either confirm or back up his theories way more heck he could even bring back matpats final thought as a joke😂 I mean how great would it be to see some old theories that were left really diffident get completely remade with the new information we (and matpat) know today
Girl Theorist Except he'd make them worse because he doesn't properly research anymore...
Girl Theorist I
He'd be pulling a Sonic 4. Taking something he did in the past that was good and redoing it with the new version of that franchise and making it far, far worse.
Wyatt Hodgkins yep
BOI I THINK THE FIRE GETS STRONGER WHEN IT EVOLERS
OMG! I was going through my pokemon handbook and I found this entry for chimchar. "Even the rain can't put out chimchar's fiery tail, which is fueled by the gases in its stomach.". The exact same thing as the theory.
MATPAT EXPOSED
what is the song at 9:00? I've heard it in games before and cannot find the origin anywhere
You know charizard and charmander are different pokémon so maybe charizard’s tail can’t go out but charmander’s can
"COINCIDENCE? I think so."
~MatPat 2017
"COINCIDENCE?! I think NOT!"
~Matpat during any fnaf theory
@@missingdeskription8545 i agree with you
“COINCIDENCE?!?! I think so” jeez things are changing so much in this world
Almost laughed
Matpat you are my faviorite youtuber you are so informative like i am learning and having fun, thanks for all the hard work you put into it.
I never noticed how much the Game Theory theme slaps.
K wait. I actually cried when that charmander almost died! Bruv, and now your telling me that he wasnt about to die!
well it still would of died if the flame went out, but not because the flame went out. it would of been some other cause. mostly like contracting a bad cold.
Thanks
So that bug basicly farts really hard for protection
lmaoo
Doesn't the bombardier beatle in dnd farther fire.
I'm in the Squirtle squad, cause Squirtle is OBVIOUSLY the cutest strongest and is the most defensive SINCE it's a water type. And that's why Vaporeon is practically the strongest Eeveelution for now.
Another thing is that in some episodes of the Pokémon anime you see a couple fire dots then suddenly it turns to fire
I just showed my friend the intro where matpat said “this is gonna get lit” and she was like “Wtf are you watching?!”
Game Theory of course.
Dalton Prince thats the only video he says that
Ash Ketchup.
Turning ketchup to ash.
Roxy and Noob you do know that’s not his last name right
Its a joke...
Fire whirls and Fire tornadoes (or technically, Pyrotornadoes) are actually separate phenomena.
Fire whirls are just as Matpat described, however they can produce windspeeds equivalent to tornadoes. The Carr fire in 2018 produced an enormous fire whirl which caused wind damage comparable to an EF3 Tornado with windspeeds around 150mph. It melted cars and tore the bark off trees before hurling them around.
Fire Tornadoes, AKA Pyrotornadoes, are a recently classified phenomenon that are much closer to real tornadoes. The updraft of a wildfire can sometimes produce its own thundercloud, a Pyrocumulonimbus cloud. Under certain conditions, this fire-induced thunderstorm can rotate and take om the characteristics of a Supercell, the type of storms that produce tornadoes, and with the extra boost of the fire's updraft, a tornado can form and touch down inside the fire.
Theory: GameFreak is actually a government controlled group, training us with the anime to recognize unknown objects, and the games are training us how to control them. If I'm right, then gen 9 is also training us to not be distracted, if you know what I mean. CHECKMATE, GAMEFREAK
>game theory
>uses anime for evidence to support this theory
One job.
who calls it an anime tho fr
The entirety of Japan I guess
everyone in the pokemon community brah
to be fair not much to analyse anywhere else save the manga which takes its own liberties
Griffith did nothing wrong, to be fair he says that to segway into its Pokedex log and how the whole "flame tail" thing.
The charmander at the start could very well just been sick, if it died from something it'd be hypothermy
No
@@mrs.randommemer265 why not?
Hypothermia is being too cold...
Ik..bruh read the comment
Besides why would a fire pokemon die from being too hot
Bulba buddies for life
That weird charmander drawing looks like an out of budget godzilla baby uncompleted concept art and then someone found out about the design and used it for their ankmation
Matpat:lit fam me: i know this is going to be “interesting”
I can’t tell if this is a twosetviolin reference
me: ngl that was kinda cringy
XD
I know I cant believe a mid 30 year old said that 😂😂
Needs formatting
“From the time it’s born there’s flame at the end of it’s tail”...oof, imagine if charmander was a mammal and his mama had to give birth to a baby with a flaming tail 😵
I mean all Pokémon come from eggs sooo
oof
That would hurt harder than the porcupups
But wait,the flame wont get out from the liquids?
@@mikotheraskum2014 Porcupine quills are soft when they are born and harden after a few hours
It'll probably still hurt but not as much as you'd expect
@@I1-_Ok_-1I oh,so what i said is half true
Note, when fighting doxious in oras charmander's tail burns fine in space.
weird fact about Pokémon Red. If you started off with a grass type, you could easily clear the first two gyms since rock was apparently weak against grass.

- Literally everyone living in Toronto
AR explain pls 😂
Ally Fey I’m from Toronto and there’s like Toronto slang and ppl say stuff like that and it’s hilarious so ppl like to make fun of it 😂😂
AR That is not a Toronto thing, it's just slang in general.
Pokémon anime logic:
“Pikachu! Use shock!”
It’s not effective
“Crap it didn’t work. Pikachu! Use shock again!”
i have a pokemon card charmander that say's "it's life would end if the fire on it's tail went out"
Fire Spin is annoying at best. It can really only cripple you if you’re already receiving chip damage from another move (like Leech Seed) or have an HP-lowering status condition. All that chip damage adds on top of Fire Spin’s chip damage, but honestly I’ve never once found it worth the effort to set up that much chip damage for an opponent unless it’s Snorlax, Walrein, GARCHOMP, Slaking, or other pokemon that just outlast and/or heal.
I appreciate you almost burning down your back yard for us
Ends up in hospital after slamming skull through screen because matpat said so
does it with school laptop (not really)

I subbed and saved
Lmao
*already was subbed*
If yer speedrunning, Squirtle stomps, if you wanna have a cool Pokemon, Charmander. If you wanna stall EVERY battle, use Bulbasaur.
It may not be the bombardier beetle theory for some Pokémon, but the way dragons breathe fire. Rayon’s breathe fire by using their scales or teeth (most commonly probably teeth) to light their fire. Someone may have the question by now: No, none of this works because it doesn’t have something flammable in it’s body that stays there forever. Yes it does, but it recharges, and it’s gas. A dragon can’t just decide when it wants to stop shooting fire. The gas stays lit until the gas is gone, causing the dragon needing to wait until the gas recharges. It MAY be the way other Pokémon shoot their fire. Oh yeah, my favorite Pokémon may be Charmander but Bulbasaur is the best Kanto starter because it is super effective against rock and water type.
brock: he chose a fire type pokemon! which is effective against a water type pokemon!
me: wut?
KingGhidorahofDeath2020 The King of the Universe Brock u more inaccurate than the Pokédex

The pokedex voice kinda sounds like Bill Cipher
spectrecutlass It's supposed to sound like Dexter from the gen 1 anime.
It's a similar vocal distortion effect. MatPat's voice just sounds a lot closer to one than the other.
spectrecutlass ikr
Omg it does
spectrecutlass well well well well well well well!
1. Charmander is much less resilient than a Charizard, and may not Yet be hardy enough to survive underwater. 2. I see no reason why the gen 1 and gen 2 pokedex entries can't agree, they aren't necessarily at odds. I think that the tail flame is a status indicator BECAUSE it's an integral part of that fire pokemon's metabolism, one that in weaker pokemon can be disrupted, often with fatal results. So, if the flame is linked to the pokemon systemically, then the flame can be affected by the overall health of the pokemon, and in younger pokemon, who haven't yet developed a strong constitution, the flame can be effected by outside influences, like rainwater.
I like how the title says TERRIFYING
The mention of dust devils reminds me of the dust Devil in the toddlers playground and losing hats

How does Delphox's version of flamethrower work? I AM A MEMBER OF THE FENNEKIN FACTION!!!🦊🦊🦊
Psychic ability. Same way pokemon like Alakazam and Gardevoir can use thunderbolt. A better question is, how can Absol use Flamethrower, Ice Beam, and Thunderbolt without anything to generate those abilities?
@@hiraethhfps Well, that would explain thunderbolt at least. But most Psychic types, like my examples above, can't learn ice beam or flamethrower.
The answer is simple, the anime has really bs moments like Ash’s Snorlax knowing like six moves
magic wand brbrbrb
I have a question if two fully evolved pokemon breed would it make their fist evolution or their final evolution
