Thanks Helix for sponsoring! Go to helixsleep.com/lockstin to get up to $200 off your mattress, plus two free pillows! So now what do you think about Cresselia? I think it's a LOT cooler now than before I started to research.
@Olivia Veitia So what does Solgaleo have? Does he loaf around half the year doing nothing? On the other hand since he is a Lion I think that is the case tho.
The lunar duo have always been some of my favorite Pokémon. The fact that one of them is Legendary and one is Mythical was always neat to me, and I've always loved both of their designs.
What I found weird was that you're sleeping on a RAW mattress. Not holding back by the societal norms on using any protection of even a fitted sheet. What a chad!
its a matter of protection for some of us. till i got straps for the sheet i didnt use one because i would wake up in the middle of the night with it rapped around my neck

I can't believe that when talking about how feminine cresselia is, you forgot to mention that it's a female only species. seems like something that'd help strengthen the connections made in the video if you had mentioned it.

"Gen 4 and 5 had way too many legendaries" *Hoenn sweating profusely while hiding Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Registeel, Regirock, Regice, Latios, Latias, Jirachi, and Deoxys behind its back*
Gen 7 starts cryings because there's no way on Earth it gets to hide Cosmog, Cosmoem, Solgaleo, Lunala, Type: Null, Silvally, Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini, Marshadow, Zeraora, Necrozma, Magearna, and all that still not counting all the Ultra Beasts and Meltan and Melmetal.
12:54 Probably coincidental though as parasites such as flies and ticks that drink the blood of someone who eats garlic die (garlic is sometimes used as an anti-flea treatment for pets), so it makes sense that vampires would share this weakness.
7:18 **Has a picture of a horrified woman fending off a rapey goose** Yeah... “win them over”... clearly the not changing back into a humanoid is the only wrong Zeus is doing in these myths...
Since we will be seeing Cresselia and Darkrai in Journeys after all these years in episode 75 and 76 makes me happy, hope Goh doesn't catch any of them.
11:03 Just tossing this out, in Nordic nations, a majority of those who were hunted as witches were actually men This might be minor in the full scale of things, or Cresselia stuff is based on the stereotypical 'witches are women' kinda thing. But in Iceland 90% were men, 70% in Finland and 60% in Estonia (well according to wiki. I got this thought brought back to my head. Read on it during my time of consuming history for exams and found it really interesting that the school history book mentioned the majority of Nordic witch accused having been older men. So that's cool)
The divide is for gameplay reasons, so you can know which legendary pokemon are from events and which are catchable, also for balancing trades and competitive play, I don't know if there are more reasons tho
@@sackfire2986 it gets even murkier because several mythicals should have been reclassified as legendary such as deoxys or magearna after becoming conventionally available. ive even still got the 'games' to acquire some of the gen3 mythicals which could be seen as another complication to the classification and then there is the wild card of phione who doesnt fit neatly into any category ultimately it really is only an availability issue
9:03 Oh, and I thought that victini, reshiram, zekrom and meloetta were the only legendaries somewhat inspired by Greco-Roman goddesses. The more you know.
Reshiram and Zekrom? Aren't they just Ying Yang? I guess they are probably something more, but what do they have to do with Greco-Roman Goddesses? Specially considering how they are very masculine-looking
Well, Harmonia is the goddess of harmony who later was turned into a serpent (either a snake or dragon depending on who you ask). And that happened because her uncle/ex-stepfather Hephaestus gave her a cursed necklace. Her husband also killed a dragon who was either sacred to her dad or her half-brother. And she only got married to him because her horny grandpa was trying to cover his tracks (Harmonia's hubby was Europa's brother). So yeah, there does seem to be some inspiration.
I know that following the idea of the Delta Episode might lead to a Giratina-themed Episode for BDSP, but... a part of me has been hoping we get a Cresselia and Darkrai Episode instead. Ultimately, I love Giratina anyway, so I'd be happy with either, bur I think Cresselia and Darkrai could have just as interesting a short story to explore
I feel like the two's designs where made to contrast eachother more then any other rival legendaries, cresseliea is round,smooth,freindly,and easy to understand,while darkrai is sharp,smoke like,earlily human,and tough to understand what your looking at,and
4:16 I think you mean the moon is on an inclined orbit, which just so happens to be lined up with the equator of the earth which is also tilted. It's orbit is tilted so in order for the earths shadow to hit the moon or the moons shadow to hit earth, it needs to first, be in one of the two points in it's orbit where the moon is neither higher nor lower than the earth, and second, the time of year where those points are lined up with the sun. The tilt of the earth wouldn't do anything to the shadow, just as tilting a ball in the beam of a flashlight wouldn't change anything. Kind of an arbitrary mistake but I figured you'd appreciate it sense you do get pretty technical in your videos.
Since Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl along with Arceus Legends are coming soon, it would be interesting if Cresselia have a new form or some sort of buff, and perhaps having a secondary fairy type.

1: I was today years old when I found out cresselia has hands. 2: It can't be a coincidence that there are only Three pokemon that are specifically moon themed (lunatone, cresselia, and Lunala) 3: Given the Thought that Clefable and Gengar are potentially connected, could they be seen as a semi or even proto lunar duo?
When I was younger, before I played Pokemon, Darkrai was my favorite Pokemon (after seeing the movie, it was Charizard and Umbreon before that). This was mostly due to it being cool, and having a great color scheme (I'm a big fan of the monochrome with a little bit of color aesthetic). Plus, the Darkrai movie is the only Pokemon movie that I think is actually quite good. It's fallen pretty far as far as my favorites, being somewhere in the top 50 or so.
I definitely had that same Pokèmon pillow case when I was a kid. I love you’re videos not only because of all the lore and inspiration I learn, but also all the nostalgia it invokes. By far my favorite subscription.
irts worth pointing out that in japanese depiction of gods and goddesses, that long scarf they wear is pretty muchthe equivalent of the angel's halo. Its the symbol that the depicted character is unbound from something as mundane as gravity.
There's no channel like Lockstin & Gnoggin, I think I've been watching for 4 or 5 years, I enjoy the whole mix of videos but especially these ones as that feels the most unique. Best wishes and thanks for the content!
Mythicals are not available in the game, you have to get them by an event. A few of them lost that exclusivity after a few generations but still are mythicals for some reason.
I think that you missed out on the connections to swan lake and a similar Japanese myth where tennyos use their hagaromos to disguise themselves as swans while on earth and then a group or one of them decide(s) to bathe in a lake and leave(s) their/her hagaromo on shore and a man spots them/her and steals a/her hagaromo and blackmails a/the tennyo into marriage.
The biggest weird part is, That Crestelia is seen as a Side legendary. So it is commonly allows in VGC tournaments. While darkrai is NEVER allowed in tournaments because of its Mythical status
Mr. Lockstin, I was so upset about you calling Mythical Pokemon Legendaries, that in a furious rage, I hit Like and Subscribe. I can't believe you have done this
I'd like to know why it wasn't turned to fairy type, it has several things going for it that make it an obvious choice. It's pink, moonlight and moonblast are fairy type, fairies seem related to the moon like Cleffairy and like they get power from it, hence why a moon stone evolves cleffairy, it would also balance the duology it has with Darkrai. They're supposed to be a duo, opposing each other, but Darkrai has a clear advantage, it's immune to psychic and is super effective on psychic, if Cresselia became fairy type it would feel more balanced, getting stab from fairy moves, it's not weak to Dakrai and while psychic won't hurt it fairy can, meanwhile Darkrai can learn other moves such as focus blast, thunder, or even ghost attacks which would be super effective on Cresselia. Are they planning a new form for Cresselia? Is it because it is only receiving a small percent of the moons power since it's only a crescent moon?
One thing to note, a lot of your advertisments are so entertaining, I don't fast forward when they come on. You could seriously pick up a side hustle in marketing.
I have been so excited for an eventual video on my favorite legendary duo, this was fascinating and I cannot WAIT for your video on my favorite shadow figure nightmare god man.
I think the biggest takeaway from this video for many is the fact that Cresselia has hands. Beyond that, this was a very interesting video. Cresselia and Darkrai are among my favorite pokemon. Excited to see whats up with Darkrai next.

What's a cresellia curse
Mario maker 3 ideas but costumes:
Goomba shroom: this causes you to turn into a goomba, you have smaller jumps but deal damage to enemies and players sideways
Question mark block suit: your jumps are smaller but if you crouch in the ground, you will become a question mark block
Spring suit: you always act like a spring but if you crouch you become a sideways spring
Gold shroom: you are invincible but your jumps and speed are decreased
Super mario bros. Pow: you can bend anything by hitting it, it acts like hitting a brick, your jump is shorter and you cant jump on enemies
Doctor's coat: you can shoot pills that don't ignite but can activate blocks also if you jump on enemies you dont get any bounce
Star rod: you get 4 extra but small jumps, can inhale enemies and blow them out to activate blocks (no air blow)
Morph ball: you can shoot 5 missiles,infinite lemons ,morph into a ball and 5 bombs, the bombs break blocks and the missiles activate them
Poke ball: you can shoot electric bolts to stun enemy stacks, bosses and players also activate blocks
Pikmin: there are 7 pikmin, you can choose which one you get and b to throw pikmin (you can only have one pikmin)
Red: deals 1 jump of damage per 5 seconds, acts like a fire ball
Blue: deals 1 jump of damage per 10 seconds, acts normally when in water and in water night themes
Yellow: deals 1 jump of damage per 7 seconds, it can carry items and activate blocks
Purple: deals 1 jump of damage, it weighs as much as a muncher, it can trigger pows and destroy blocks just by falling on them
White: deals 1 jump of damage per 3 seconds, can survive poison water and destroy munchers
Winged: gives you a floatier jump for 10 seconds with a recharge of 5
Rock: deals 1 jump of damage and activates blocks like a orange pow
inkling: you can shoot ink balls similarly to links bow that make 3 by 3 ink stains, if you shoot one and it hits the ground it makes a 3 block wide stain but you can activate the inkball earlier by pressing l or r again which affects semisolids and other blocks, if you press down on top of ink you become a squid which makes you clip inside the block you are standing on, you act like you are running in normal ground but like in a cloud in semi solids and other blocks, also water kills you and cleans ink
gnw mario: you can teleport 2 block forwards by TAPPING left or right
your jump just teleports you half way up and then up, your fire balls also teleport but one block left and right
pac man: you lock on to enemies and can dash into them in 8 directions and if you run too fast you destroy enemies that touch your mouth
backpack: you cant jump but you can carry items
builder suit: you have 5 bricks that you can place anywhere like in story mode
suspicious knife: you can go into any pipe (warp or not) and exit another one in the same warp, you have a knife stab and you can make gizmos not work
Luma:
You can spin and big chunks of blocks get a gravitational pole
I have gone over nearly 14 years not knowing Cresselia had hands. I thought they were just wings. (0.0)
1: I was today years old when I found out cresselia has hands.
2: It can't be a coincidence that there are only Three pokemon that are specifically moon themed (lunatone, cresselia, and Lunala)
3: Given the Thought that Clefable and Gengar are potentially connected, could they be seen as a semi or even proto lunar duo?
Creselia is Usagi and Darkrai is Momoru
When I was younger, before I played Pokemon, Darkrai was my favorite Pokemon (after seeing the movie, it was Charizard and Umbreon before that). This was mostly due to it being cool, and having a great color scheme (I'm a big fan of the monochrome with a little bit of color aesthetic). Plus, the Darkrai movie is the only Pokemon movie that I think is actually quite good. It's fallen pretty far as far as my favorites, being somewhere in the top 50 or so.
"Rigorous use by my wife and me..."
*insert Pokemon mating noise*
I definitely had that same Pokèmon pillow case when I was a kid. I love you’re videos not only because of all the lore and inspiration I learn, but also all the nostalgia it invokes. By far my favorite subscription.
In England, all swans are “the property of the queen” which could symbolise cressleila being femenin or maybe it shows her to be the queen of dreams?
9:09 Selene is her Roman name, I think her Greek name is Artemis
I love your little character, its so cute!!!
irts worth pointing out that in japanese depiction of gods and goddesses, that long scarf they wear is pretty muchthe equivalent of the angel's halo. Its the symbol that the depicted character is unbound from something as mundane as gravity.
This is going to get controversial: Celebi is my favorite legendary
There's no channel like Lockstin & Gnoggin, I think I've been watching for 4 or 5 years, I enjoy the whole mix of videos but especially these ones as that feels the most unique. Best wishes and thanks for the content!
It took me years until just now to know that the pink things on cresselia chest were it’s arms because they never move
that was so clear to hear. You're lucky that censor was enough for youtube,somehow it didn't hear that.
Imagine if cressilia extend their arms
I was surprised to see Lockstin holding Palkia which is the same figure, that can flap its whiskers, I have right on my desk
Only thing I'm upset about is that I don't know the difference between a legendary and mystical
Mythicals are not available in the game, you have to get them by an event. A few of them lost that exclusivity after a few generations but still are mythicals for some reason.
I think that you missed out on the connections to swan lake and a similar Japanese myth where tennyos use their hagaromos to disguise themselves as swans while on earth and then a group or one of them decide(s) to bathe in a lake and leave(s) their/her hagaromo on shore and a man spots them/her and steals a/her hagaromo and blackmails a/the tennyo into marriage.
I Have to admit it, these guys take pokemon theories to the peak and produce top-notch content.
Kudos to you Lockstin&Gnoggin.
The biggest weird part is, That Crestelia is seen as a Side legendary. So it is commonly allows in VGC tournaments.
While darkrai is NEVER allowed in tournaments because of its Mythical status
One of my favorite Legendary Duo. Love the content!
I love how often you post. daily posts are hard for youtuber and I appreciate it when I find UA-camrs that do this
The legendary that everyone forgets
Hardcore Poke-PVPs know...and they fear it.
You've probably never played VGC then, Cresselia be throwing hands.
@@leoberumen116 even though Cresselia physically can't do that.
Can't forget someone I hate because of PMD.
Smash Bros Spear Pillar gives me PTSD flashbacks
"Similar to a Peacock"
Meanwhile me laughing at the thought of a chicken being as graceful as a Peacock.
Omg. As a Pagan Wiccan, it made me so happy to see the religion mentioned. And talked about accurately, might I add.
I’m not waiting a full month Lockstin.. GIVE US THE DARK EDGE BOI VIDEO WE DESERVE
Mr. Lockstin, I was so upset about you calling Mythical Pokemon Legendaries, that in a furious rage, I hit Like and Subscribe. I can't believe you have done this
I really wish we got more in-game lore and context for Darkrai and Cresselia. The quests, as I remember them in DPPl were very basic
"Well, I'm not making an OnlyFans."
Why live?
“unless…” 👀
@@Mimikyuzzz 😳😳😳
@@Mimikyuzzz uwu
@@CrimsonAkato DID I JUST GET 'uwu'd
I could listen to Lockstin talk about anything and feel relaxed
I’m so upset that you included Mythical Pokemon in the list of Legendary Pokémon that I ate my computer in sheer rage.
How did it taste?
What are the songs you use in the outros? They're always so catchy
Never been here this early. Learned a lot about Cresselia.
I honestly never once thought of them as a duo.
I'd like to know why it wasn't turned to fairy type, it has several things going for it that make it an obvious choice. It's pink, moonlight and moonblast are fairy type, fairies seem related to the moon like Cleffairy and like they get power from it, hence why a moon stone evolves cleffairy, it would also balance the duology it has with Darkrai. They're supposed to be a duo, opposing each other, but Darkrai has a clear advantage, it's immune to psychic and is super effective on psychic, if Cresselia became fairy type it would feel more balanced, getting stab from fairy moves, it's not weak to Dakrai and while psychic won't hurt it fairy can, meanwhile Darkrai can learn other moves such as focus blast, thunder, or even ghost attacks which would be super effective on Cresselia. Are they planning a new form for Cresselia? Is it because it is only receiving a small percent of the moons power since it's only a crescent moon?
I'm over here just reading through comments and am surprised by the number of people who did not know Cresselia had hands.
You’re not starting an only fans unless what lockstin?? UNLESS WHAT????
One thing to note, a lot of your advertisments are so entertaining, I don't fast forward when they come on. You could seriously pick up a side hustle in marketing.
As a pagan/witch, this is a lot of good information ♥ I'm glad to see positive information instead of the typical hollywood degradation :)!
I have been so excited for an eventual video on my favorite legendary duo, this was fascinating and I cannot WAIT for your video on my favorite shadow figure nightmare god man.
I guess ominite went into the bed industry
Yes im makeing this joke
Everyone who didn't like it: Red, you can't use that here.
Omanyte
I've never been more proud of someone who actually did their research
So are we not mentioning the fact that he has a body pillow of his own OC?
Yeah that is very weird
It is perfectly normal.
Both answers are correct
I think the biggest takeaway from this video for many is the fact that Cresselia has hands.
Beyond that, this was a very interesting video. Cresselia and Darkrai are among my favorite pokemon. Excited to see whats up with Darkrai next.
Lol, I don't want the mattress, I just want my own Lockstin xD
What makes this more appropriate is that for me is 11pm and when this video was posted the night started, in the same exact moment
Coincidence?!
You must live at a high latitude in the Northern Hemisphere for the sun to set at 11pm this time of year.
