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
Reshiram is a Republican.
Fite me.
Bet it sips water like one too
Hmmm is it universal or is it contemporary times? That is the question.
Woke centrist Kyurem
Nah i prefer chaos aka no order no ideals just chaos
Good video man i like it
On the terrible subject of politics...
Reshiram and Zekrom would be WAY better political mascots then an elephant and a donkey.
Agreed
StardustLightseeker dam but would it be hard to choose then
StardustLightseeker so true
i mean the only reason its a donkey is because someone called andrew jackson an "ass" and he thought it was funny so he just made it his party logo.
Agreed
If we ever get Unova remakes, they should show us the original dragon
Polish-Hunagarian Productions well before that happens then we’ll get Sinnoh and we all know that that’s not going to happen anytime soon
Edit: yes... I know they were announced... I made this over a year ago
Black 2 and White 2: Are we a joke to you?
Dylan Beishline those were sequels. Not remakes. And pretty bad sequels at that.
Brandon Henniger they were not bad sequels actually
@@jazzy9809 actually all sequels are worse then 1st like in most of the movies
I also like that Zekrom and Reshiram’s types _aren’t_ really opposites. They’re both forms of energy, electricity and heat. And then Kyurem is ice. The cold, the absence of energy
And this lets us conclude that the original dragon could likely manipulate the elementary particles at will: one can dump energy into their movement, one can direct them based on charge, and the third, the remainder, locks them in place.

This was the funniest thing i’ve heard all day
My god. We found the original Unovan dragon!
I got an ad for Pokemon go so I got: *🎶ME AND MY BEST FRIEND!🎵*
Side note: Mercury, a metal, which conduct electricity; Sulfur, an element connected to fire in much classical liturature, and Salt, an element commonly associated with ice
Hooray more alchemy
How come he says sophic mercury is yang/reshiram and sophic sulfur is yin/zekrom... then again, some of the things are also swapped e.g. actual yin is [black, female, passive, nature and truth], but zekrom is considered [male-looking, active, ideals] although black...
That inverted color scheme should've been the shinies of the dragons.
I agree!
But green Zekrom tho 😩😩😩😩👌👌👌👌
Crusadrian 🤮
I like the shines though...and that not a shiny.
Moreover
Truth suits better in dark concrete solid body like the carbon black zekrom
Ideals fits more in white ethereal celestial kinda more noble
What I got from this:
Kyurem is salty and woke.
Cloudy Dragons no?
Mitch Ryan It’s Sophic Salt, and is looking for meaning in life. -_-
Mario Maker 2 shenanigans over here...
@@cloudwyrms9752 actually I think it also represents nihilism
Dex description as a empty shell from the original Dragon
Kinda great imagine to represent depression
Kyurem is the dragon of void of truth or ideals thus nihilism there's no ideals worth pursuing no truth to believe in
Only cold sad reality of shallow nothing
Fire in greek mythology represents knowledge aka understanding of the truth
Electricity is energy and ideals motivate people revolutions change in society come from ideals
When you have new ideas light bulbs 💡
Electricity moves engines
Ideals motivate people to change the world
Cold freeze people and stop them
Depression nihilism stop people from living and having the will to do anything
Cold is opposite of fire of knowledge
And cold in nature often kills life like depression
Thanongrit Suriyarungka Ooh, I like that imagery for it.
I know I heard someone a while ago theorize Team Plasma as being inspired by the natures of Reshiram and Zekrom, hot and ionized, together making plasma. To add on to that, I think that Neo Team Plasma, since their original motives believed by their king, N, were ruined, they have no solid foundation for their destructive actions, making Kyurem represent them better in Black and White 2.
Or I just could be looking too deep into it. ‘^^

Alchemy has been present in Pokémon since like Gold and Silver.
Maybe in the sequels/remakes Pokémon BLACK VERSION 3 and Pokémon WHITE VERSION 3, we will see the original dragon form of kyurem with 3 heads representing fire, ice and electricity powers and receiving the highest base stat total of all dragon type pokemon. Fun fact:kyurem is in fact the original dragon. Because it is the third legendary and also the leader of the tao trio. And kyurem is also referred by someone as the strongest dragon type pokemon in the world in the movie and due to the fact that kyurem used to be an unified dragon. In it’s original form, kyurem will be a pure dragon type pokemon with an ability that will raise the powers of fire, ice and electric type moves and it will also have the highest base stat totals of all dragon type pokemons.

How hard was it winning that race btw?
@@zeruapod2897
Wait, what race? 👀
Oh snap 👀
Are these primary colors important on their own, or just as primary colors?
i also like how reshiram has the blue eye and zekrom has the red one while they clearly dont match them. reshiram (fire) and zekrom (lightning). yin and yang with the black dot and the white dot. also kyurems eyes look totally soulless, and when merged with reshiram or zekrom, he gets his pupils back.

To be fair, most of them are contained under the creator comment. It's like everyone unanimously agreed to keep all the controversy in one place.
I always thought that Iris and Cilan from the anime represented truth and ideals and Ash was always in the middle. Iris is more in tune with the world around her, the ideals and Cilan is the logical one always searching for the truth. Ash was always in the middle thinking of them both.

@@funtimegamer8733 fits better he is the empty void left by no ideology
@@kerrywien6775 Actually, if this theory was correct, then Kyurem would not be the original dragon, but part of it, yet without Kyurem then Zekrom and Reshiram could not combine to be the original one, because Kyurem can already morph with one, Kyurem just needs more power in black and white 3 to combine with both.
Holy crap the Black Reshiram and White Zekrom look way cooler than I would’ve thought
Those forms honestly would make bunch more sense since yin is soft while yang is hard
3:35 OK! Now i am kinda salty those are not their shinys, because black Reshiram and White Zekrom look DOPE and AWESOME, both by lore and by design!

on one hand, i kind of like how we never got to see the complete dragon, it adds a layer of mystery and has an interesting end to the story. but on the other hand, i really hope we have some way to form the full dragon in the possible gen 5 remakes.
Being able to form the complete dragon completely ruins the theme in bw, it's that there is more than just a single correct answer and way to do.things, which is why the dragon split in the first place. Being able to reform the dragon means there was a single correct answer the whole time, just one single point of view. Plus the devs said they never even designed the original dragon so I highly doubt we'll ever see it.
Yeah there is one correct answer that's why the two brothers stop fighting. They realized both truth and ideals are needed. Also Kyreum wants to merge back onto one.

The Tao Trio could also be referenced by "The Three Pure Ones" in Taoism, representing the three essentials of the body: Jing (body), Qi (spirit), and Shen (heart). And in a way, they sort of symbolize it. Kyurem only being a leftover *husk* is the Jing, Zekrom who represents *ideals* is the Shen (cuz ideals or desires r mostly from the heart), and Reshiram who represents *truth* is the Qi (the truth stems from logical thinking)
Uhh, a minor correction, Jing (精) = Essence, Qi (气) = Ki (Energy), Shen (身) = Body.
So the correct assumption would be, Shen = Kyurem. Zekrom would fall in line to Qi instead and Reshiram = Jing.
Because in Chinese Taoism, Qi is more akin to energy in the surroundings and all humans could inherit Qi. But of course Qi is mostly could not be found, because in the end, Qi is more of a philosophical thought. Jing, however could be found, cause all humans have essence.

Pff typical human trying to make a mountain out of a SCROBLIN hill.
Wait..

we can roughly tell what the dragon looked like by looking at kyurem, because it's pokedex entry is "This legendary ice Pokémon waits for a hero to fill in the missing parts of its body with truth or ideals." and the missing parts were replaced by ice.
I always saw Kyurem as not being nothingness, but rather representing balance. This is partly because of it's typing, dragon/ice; ice types are strong against dragon types, but kyurem embodies both these opposing types.

Considering Unova was the first region NOT based on Asia, I think the Western alchemy inspiration is way more interesting and fitting. Plus like you said, the theories are pretty similar in a lot of ways, anyway.
I really love Gen 5 lore... I was really happy to see a lot of connections in X/Y, with the whole ancient castle's garden being devoted to Unovan legendaries and implying N and Z are blood related (c'mon, even their names are similar) but I was sad they didn't expand more on that by maybe telling us more about the two kings and the original dragon.
That politics bit made me laugh XD
Btw I just wanna share something: I had read somewhere that yes Reshiram was Yang, Zekrom was Yin and Kyurem was Wushi, and it came with a supposed actual story surrounding the Yin Yang, for there to be harmony specifically the 2 main Dragons needed to get along, Reshiram(Truth) on his side as Yang and Zekrom(Ideals) on his side as Yin, if the 2 were at peace than Kyurem could come and complete it, he would be able to align with them and so transform into his Black and White forms, which would be the little white circle in Yin(black) and the little black circle in Yang(White), however because of Zekrom/Yin/Ideals/Black and Reshiram/Yang/Truth/White constant fight to try to take over the other, Kyurem(Wushi) was left in his weaker form because he need them to get along in order to transform into his 2 more powerful forms and bring balance, so once he had enough he thought "if they are going to keep on fighting, I shall bring an end to everything and then there will be no one left to fight" and that's what Wushi is: the emptiness.

Why are there so many hidden references to Alchemy in pokemon? WHAT IS IT ALL FOR?!
Well, I think it has to do with the fact the Pokemon universe is a world filled with mythical creatures yet it has a great understanding of science, a fusion of science and magic, which is essentially what alchemy was.
@@monhunterz5430 But why do they hide it? To notice half this stuff you have to research alchemy in depth. They never really attract attention to what they clearly put a lot of effort into.
@@pbtenchi They aren't hiding it, per-say, but, instead, are simply using this subject as a means of inspiration for their pokemon franchise's ideas. They would'nt explain it because they may not feel the need to. I mean, Lockstin's on the case, 24/7, so who knows if we need their explanation. lol

I'll note, of course, that Wuji isn't actually "empty" per se, but rather "limitless". Translating to "Without ridgepole", the Wuji is the transcendent energy, not merely the absence of Yin and Yang.
As well, the Wuji, by limiting itself, gives rise to the Taiji, the Supreme Ultimate, which then in turns gives rise to Yin and Yang, and the interplay of Yin and Yang, the active and passive energies, causes the five Taoist elements, the Wuxing, Earth, Water, Fire, Metal, Wood.
There's a strikingly comparable concept in the Western mystical tradition as well. In Kabbalah, the Ein Sof, "without end", is unlimited and undefined(as defining something inherently limits it, separating it from all other things). Within the Ein Sof, the desire-to-create, the Ohr, Light-without-end, arises, and then Ayin and Yesh, which describe an Is/Is Not distinction. From these, the ten sephiroth or "emanations" reveal the Absolute to the material world. Kabbalah, mind, is not strictly Western, as the Hebrews were always essentially a fusion culture, but it was profoundly influential on Western mysticism and alchemy. The comparison with Tao is not one-to-one, but all things considered it's remarkably similar.

Plasma the fourth state of matter. The missing link of the three dragons base on matter created by Arceus. I am guessing they might create a new type since there aren't any existing typing that can represent that. I also think that's why"Team Plasma" has it's name.
This is the first time I've seen one of your videos and you're hilarious! The chaotic energy is strong, I love it. Thank you for putting so much work into this, I'm off to research alchemy now
Hey I know, I’ll use my trusty frying pan as a drying pan!

Is fma ur fav anime
*Alchemy. The process of constructing, deconstructing and reconstructing matter-*

Lockstin always do something explained something different, love it !!!
It's awesome indeed! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He basically explains the science of video games, if you want the cultural side of gaming look, at at Gaijin Goomba and the history of gaming would be GamingHistorian, there’s a trio right there :)
@@Atari11000 its better than top 10 that will never happen or opinions, youtubers should be more creative for their contents.
Not like reaction reaction reaction.
If the original dragon is an abomination I will cry.
Regarding the active and passive, I kinda see both Reshiram and Zekrom as forces of change, then both being "active" (they are fire and electricity, both pure energy). The passive one would be Kyurem for me, since he is "ice", the lack of energy/passion. If the three of them were in front of a danger, I see it as Zekrom fighting, Reshiram flying and Kyurem standing.
The depth of Gen 5 box legendaries is amazing, if game freak needs story ideas for a black and white 3 send them my way!
Maybe in the sequels/remakes Pokémon BLACK VERSION 3 and Pokémon WHITE VERSION 3, we will see the original dragon form of kyurem with 3 heads representing fire, ice and electricity powers and receiving the highest base stat total of all dragon type pokemon. Fun fact:kyurem is in fact the original dragon. Because it is the third legendary and also the leader of the tao trio. And kyurem is also referred by someone as the strongest dragon type pokemon in the world in the movie and due to the fact that kyurem used to be an unified dragon. In it’s original form, kyurem will be a pure dragon type pokemon with an ability that will raise the powers of fire, ice and electric type moves and it will also have the highest base stat totals of all dragon type pokemons.
Woah, I need those color swapped versions. Especially Reshiram.
Those should have been their shiny forms, it would have made so much sense
See but then they would have been in direct print off of Yu-Gi-Oh too Blue Eyeses White Dragon used lightning and Red Eyes Black Dragon used Fire
The color swaps should have been the shinys. Instead gamefreak went lazy with reshi and made a little gold and zek has a little bit of a filter.
Crimson Weeb Because Yugioh monster attacks actually matter. One could argue that their current colors already makes them similar to the yugioh dragons because Zekrom is a black dragon with red eyes and Reshiram is a white dragon with blue eyes

I've never sawed a pokemon video like this, stunning

Amazing job, be proud of you!

Lockstin trying to “merge” us all together in the comments by being the icy “salt” of the equation.
I see you, Mr. Human.
Reshiram has blue eyes because he sees everyone not as right wing as himself as leftist and Zekrom has red eyes because he's high
What? Pardon? I don’t know what “he sees everyone not as right wing as leftist” means.

You had me in the first half, ngl.
I totally LOVE the music in background in your videos. Also i recently found your channel and great work
There was an add halfway through while I was watching, right after he said "what di these creatures represent?" Apparently, they represent Stadia.
1. Lockstin is a Pokemon
2. Hidden refences in Pokemon are amazing

Would’ve been cool if reshiram’s and zekrom’s shinies were colour swaps between them
for real
I really wanna see the original dragon
I hope the remake for black and white is a combo between B&W and B&W2 but adding some extras maybe something like a chapter 3
I love dragon pokemon and dragon month.Thanks!
Dragon type’s my favorite typing

The weaknesses of your "better" are weak to the most commonly-used types in the game.
Luckily, though, Kyurem is both Ice and Dragon. So there's common ground for us to stand on. :)
Cool................ pun was not intented but now it is
Dragon pride month
Say what you want, but for me the base inspiration of resciram an zeckrom will always be blue-eyes white dragon and red-eyes black dragon😂😂
(Very good video tho👏👏)
Under-Rated Comment
Well, they included all of them. They 're both anime, manga or games, right?
It's time to d-d-d-d-d-d-duel!
i thought that when they first came out XD
Joey hunts down ideals of anyone can be a great duelist and achieve greatness. Kaiba knows the truth that those with power rule so he obtains power through money since money is truth of this world.

That was 3 years ago? The End Series was so amazing you made me relive Pokémon in a deeper way after that series. You looked the same to me then I seen you was bigger in this one, I was shook. It’s crazy how times fly. You shot to my favorites when that series came out. I wish the Pokémon was half as thoughtful to the lore like you are. I keep wanting them to do Pokémon in the past like, why are we moving forward? I’ll love a game that takes place in the past on these “Kanto-Kalos” War and the events of Cinnabar Island . Or even 1% of the stuff you talking about that lead to the stuff that’s now. Like what if they extended generations by like a year or two. And reused assets to make a game bridging the lore between the two. Man that would be so fun. I’m joining the discord today lol
"You huma-US humans"
Big brain alien confirmed
Geez, humans always calling themselves big brain.
Fun fact they also represente the blue eyes white dragon and the red eyes black dragon from yu-gi-oh
That’s really funny lol
And kyurem is inspired by ugin the spirit dragon from magic the gathering
Door Slammer what about my boi Nicol Bolas?
@@wbrooks5913 kyurem is is grey and represents absence from yin/yang and the two contraires. Ugin is grey and is colorless mechanically. Checks out much better than bolas.
Blue eyes white dragon?
This was my first video ive seen of the channel and without it i dont think i would have found this amazing channel
There is an additional origin that seems to fit pretty well with Zekrom and Reshiram.
The Iroquois, a group of native tribes that live north of New York City, have a twin pair of gods: They are referred to as the Good Mind and the Bad Mind, Enigorio and Enigonhahetgea, Hahgwahdiyu and Hagwahdaetgah, and my personal preference, Odendonnia and Ohaa. The exact details differ between tellers, but the story basically goes like this: Either the woman who fell from heaven in the Creation story (Who was caught by a turtle, and used dirt to create the land) or her daughter was pregnant with twins. When the two were to be born, Odendonnia (The good mind) wanted to be born normally whereas Ohaa (The bad mind) wanted to leave his mother through her armpit; The two disputed and the result was that they were born but their mother died. Odendonnia ended up turning his mother's body into the sun and the moon, creating light. Ohaa was opposed to this, wanting the world to remain dark. Odendonnia was generous and benevolent, whereas Ohaa was cruel and destructive.
This lines up with the lore, Reshiram and Zekrom were born from the destruction of the Original Dragon, where Kyurem is the leftovers. Said destruction happened because of a dispute between the two sides. The "children" thing also lines up with the alchemical essentials.
You should have also mentioned that Zekrom was electric type, while electrons give a negative charge, while Resheram was a fire type, while fire gives heat energy (vibrating molecules) which is recorded as positive.

"it isn't black and white or red and blue"
