Did you know that Pokemon shrink themselves to fit inside Pokeballs? What about the fact that Hisuian Electrode has another form that we haven't seen in Legends: Arceus? OR the fact that The Pokemon Company has already trademarked the name "Pocket Monsters: Crimson" which will probably be the follow-up game to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? Well if you did then you're a genius! But if you didn't, that's just three of the hundred I go over!

Fact 13.5: Even if you do have your text speed set to fast, N still talks faster than everyone else! So he’s basically the only character who has ultrafast text speed!
I believe there's an NPC who has the opposite situation to him actually. They talk slower than the current text speed, and will also talk ultraslow if the speed is set to Slow.
@@Hijiri_MIRACHION its an old woman in a house on the route where you find Thundurus and Tornadus I believe
Vroom is his text speed
Oh and I forgot to mention that one kid from the isle of armor when he’s talking about porygon, but no one cares about him
I knew this, but it's still intresting
Skiddo and Gogoat are not only just available in their debut game almost 10 years ago, but IN A SINGLE LOCATION in their debut game almost 10 years ago, that being Route 5 for Skiddo and the third slot of 25% of Grass Friend Safaris for Gogoat.
I do not believe pokemon x and y came out 10 years ago
@@joelegs625 just wait until October 12th of this year. Then the games will be 10 years old.
They came out in 2013
@@AnonYmouSchris19 yeah I know
I feel old…
Electrode has a "butthole" because it is literally an upside down Voltorb, so the hole at the top of Voltorb is now on the bottom Also that's not a plant, that's electricity
Hisuian Electrode and Voltorb is a plant though?
butts?
I have a little fact! Did you know that Glameow is the only pokemon who's 3d model was changed from XY to sun and moon
What changed?
@@zeldaenby224 glameow's head/ears atleast
i just looked it up and holy shit, you’re right, i never noticed that! that’s pretty cool
Sucker Punch’s name in Japanese is Surprise Attack which is why so many Pokémon without arms like Diglett and Seedot can learn the move
I guess that explains why Hitmonchan can't learn it, he is more of a straight up fighter after all.
Just like Splash’s name in Japanese is “Hop”, which is why it’s not a Water-type move (except for in Pokémon GO)! Speaking of Splash, another relatively unknown fact is that Splash actually *does* do damage in some games, namely Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky, and the obscure WiiWare Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, where it does 5 HP of damage to both the user and the opponent!
@@davidspraguedragonman6479 Though it’s a Water-type move in Pokémon GO for no reason
@@mistakenbird656 Yep! That’s exactly why I said it’s not a Water-type move except for Pokémon GO! I actually had to do a bit of a double take when I first saw the type change in the app!
I mean looking at digletts movepool it likely has claws
Just so you know, Drayden isn't actually Iris' grandfather. However, in the manga, Iris calls him that out of endearment, as he was always a mentor figure to her. The same applied to Alder, actually, as Iris also referred to Alder in that way.
I'm pretty sure Iris also calls Drayden grandfather in the game but should be the same reason you mentioned here.
@@hhjan594 I'm playing through black right now and yes, she called him grandfather.
@@Grey_Warden_Invasion I thought in black 2, as the champion she called Drayden her Grandpa too
Yes, I was going to comment this
Drayden raised her though, right?
The Level 15 Gift Tentacool is definitely an anti-softlock.
Yup. That way the player can surf away from Cianwood and not get stranded there.
Why don't nuzlockers do it?
@@11epicnoob dupes clause
@@franceswynn6970 well no dupes clause it being able to run form a encounter if you have a pokemon for its evolutionary line
5:45 Paldean Wooper and Clodsire: *I'm about to end this man's whole career*
I had assumed what we were seeing underneath Hisuian Electrode in the statue of it at Mount Coronet was actually a lightning bolt than it was using to blast itself off the ground.
Yeah, I took that more as an “action pose” rather than a different form
Thats what I thought it was
i think that is actually what it is
It is
It most probably is. He can have some neat facts, but no doubt he has a lot of hiccups with his "facts"
Fun fact: Gardevoir's dex entry in legends arceus confirms that what Gardevoir uses is actually a dress that isn't part of her body. And honestly, it makes sense. If Gardevoir can create black holes with psychic powers it makes sense that she could also create a dress with fairy type powers.
She wasn't always a fairy before gen 6
@@AnonYmouSchris19 That literally doesn´t matter.
@@giboit. I legend of Arceus I thought the time line is back in the past so she technically shouldn't have fairy typing, idk
@@AnonYmouSchris19 Gardevoir is a psychic/fairy type in legends arceus. And this fact is treated as if this has been always the typing for Gardevoir and all the other pokemon that have the fairy type. Trying to apply that kind of logic that you're implying for the games doesn't make sense by the way. Fairy type as a feature was added in gen 6 but that doesn't mean that because of it canonically the fairy type didn't exist for a game like legends arceus or any other previous game for that matter. Heck, ORAS is literally a game set in Hoenn, a region from gen 3 and fairy type exist there too. It's just treated as the most recently discovered type and many pokemon got properly reclassified as fairy types as a result.
@@giboit. ORAS is a remake not a remaster though unless legend of Arceus is in the mega evolution timeline then I'm wrong (probably wrong regardless)just confused about the setting of the games timeline.
I think about Skiddo not being in any game besides X&Y a lot. It’s one of my favourite pokemon and it’s adorable! I really hope that it and Gogoat get added to the next games Edit: Skiddo was shown in the most recent Scarlet & Violet Pokemon Presents! IT’S COMING BACK!
Yeah, gogoat is my favourite gen 6 Pokémon and I always go through the trouble of getting one when I play Pokemon X, It's so cool looking and it's also very underrated as a bulky sweeping machine, HECK I've beaten ubers with that thing. In the end, very proud of my lvl 100 gogoat, literally the pokemon to which I'm most attached to in pokemon X right after my Feraligatr and Latias in my first hg playthrough
There's also Pikipek which is only in the 7th gen games. I want to use each Pokemon at least once in one of my teams throughout a game and had planned to use a Pikipek only to then realise that I can only have it in Sun and Moon (and their Ultra variations). And now that you mention it, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a Skiddoo on my team the next time I play X or Y.
Proud to say, that after 14 years of playing pokemon heartgold, since it was my very first game, I knew what the shaking pokeballs meant. I played through gen 2 countless times (gold silver crystall) Since my sister gifted me her old pokemon silver cartridge when I was little (which lasted very long, I only very recently had to change the battery) but since I never ran from the sudowoodo I've never seen it hopping around like that, I was really surprised lol
Ash didnt choose pikachu. It was all oak "had left for starters". It didnt all come together. Its a paradox. Oak kept the pikachu all that time, to give to ash whom he knew hed meet future wise, thanks to celebi, so by knowing ash was from the future, when he was a kid, oak had pikachu waiting for ash, knowing hed one day come get it. If he didnt have pikachu, his past experience with ash wouldnt happen, therefore ash wouldnt have the adventure he has now. Its a timeloop paradox.
Yupp no way the person who supposed to hand out new trainers Pokémon just happened to run out of the Pokémon he knew would get picked up that day he recognized caught and saved pikachu maybe even the reason he moved to pallet in the first place
Sucker Punch isn’t actually a “Punching” move it was just translated badly. It’s literal translate is “Sneak/Surprise Attack” from Japanese. It’s noted in the Trivia section of Hitmonchan’s Iron Fist ability.
Dobbs has already said that Years back
I think the Ivysaur fact means that when it's larger than in the image, implying that the bulb grows first, up to its evolution into Venusaur.
Palkia is a water type also because In the past it was theorised that space is an endless ocean . I could also be a reference To Nun the Egyptian god that rules the cosmic waters. Who is the Father of Rha The sun God
Dobbs was right
@@Isleptwithjesus I know he is but some people just find it dumb so I gave some additional information. So please don't think that I think he is dumb or wrong.
I had no idea about the poke balls shaking in heartgold and soulsliver means they will level up too bad they didn’t keep this feature.
This reminds me of when Megamind made his "Oh your a villian alright, just not a super one" speech 9:26
Machoke's Focus Blast is a Hadoken, not a Kamehameha. The latter is a beam, the former is a ball type attack like Aura Sphere. Just saying
"um actually"
Makes for some irony, knowing Sean Shimmel.
*Just Saiyan
I mean, technically both attacks have taken both forms, at various times. Goku has used the Kamehameha in a ball form when he was controlling the attack mentally in his fight against Frieza, and the Shinkuu Hadoken is a beam attack.
🤓 winning content
I can see the gen 5 remixes being White Gold and Black Silver being a fusion of gen 2 (like having every gen 2 pokemon and gen 5 pokemon with being able to take the airplane to an island near Johto)
Or maybe Ebony Black and Ivory White
@@applefai6021 No
May’s Japanese voice actress has a throat condition that has halted her career. In Japan voice actors and actresses are held in high regard, and replacing a characters’ VA is uncommon. That is why we haven’t seen May outside of cameos since the Diamond and Pearl series.
Well that’s unfortunate.
I hope she gets better.
I knew that you could change the throwing animation in Sun and Moon. I never really used that feature but I still went on all of those mini quests to acquire the different throwing animations. XD The old guy on top of the gym building roof made me chuckle.
0:58 so you're saying eggs are 4x weak to Ice
😂😂
Groudon: I am afraid of no land mass. But that thing. Cliff: *exist* Groudon: That thing scares me. [PS: Loved this video, Dobbs! I knew a good half of these, bit it's always fun to know more lore & features of pokemon!]
N actually has a unique text speed if you have your speed setting on fast, making it nearly instant.
8:38 #65 This is wrong. Like most games prior to (I think gen 5 or 6), there was a list of default names that the game would choose from. Yes, Maggie and Dwight are a part of those lists, but they're not the only default names. If you actually try this yourself, it's very unlikely to get Maggie and Dwight back-to-back, as there are 18 names for the male or female character. Dobbs probably found the reddit post named "TIL the default names for the boy and girl for Diamond and Pearl, are Dwight and Maggie". I don't have my ds with me, but I knew that fact was wrong just from memories of doing gen 4 nuzlockes. Notably, while the male protagonist has "Ash" under the list of English possible names, the female one does not have Dawn. Something more interesting about the Gen 4 games, if you evolve your starter before talking to Rowan for the pokedex, he has special dialogue for you.
Wait are we sure hissuan electrode had a tail or stem or whatever because that could have been it trying to use it's electricity to propel itself I mean it's signature move chlorblast is literally where it Concentrates a beam of energy and fires it from that hole in it's bottom so that could easily be it using it's electricity to propel itself like spring bored or something
The Lugia one seems like a stretch to be an evolution of dunsparce
With the Crimson fact its funny cause The German Name for Pokemon Scarlet IS the German Word for Crimson that being Karmesin
So if there were to be a "Pokemon Crimson" what would the German name be
@@KitsuneKoinu idk
6:21 I wonder why groudon is afraid of falling off of a cliff that gives way straight to water ... weird
0:27 easy, he got a ditto cause jake transforms and ditto can too.
I feel stupid because the thumbnail made me think that you were implying that only one Squirtle ever existed, which obviously isn't true, but then I realized that the Squirtle in the thumbnail was shiny, LOL.
11:58 super Mario? Im not so sure about that it sounds more like GO GO POWER RANGERS!
REALLY REALLY enjoyed this!!! keep it up dobbs!
Skiddo is pretty memorable to me. First one I ever found was shiny!!!
also skiddos adorable
0:52 Wait... So in pokemon GO we are incubating, incubators?
I think I can explain a few of these. Around the time the first Meltan event was planned to start players would see a Kecleon and upon tapping it would be met with Ditto, Meltan or just empty space named "???" and "???" CP with no type; the missing sprite ones were hard to find but if you managed to catch it the game always crashed. Invisible Shiny Bulbasaur is the default Pokemon thrown out in Diamond and Pearl when you hack your way through walls into the tall grass without any Pokemon in your team, the effects are a lot more interesting if you do this while Barry is walking with you. As for the naming schemes in Diamond and Pearl, there's a list of generic names that the games pick from if you tap enter without a name, so Maggie and Dwight are just one of like, 5 to 7 names the game has as a fail safe to prevent a crash if the player hits enter before putting in a name. When hacking past the e-reader blockade, what happens next depends on your emulator. I don't believe it can be done on a cartridge but on most emulators, the opening will act like a push-block, forcing you out of the doorway. Entering the room somehow (which emulator was even used?) appears to show the sprite of the character for the e-reader event, however there was never any coding in the game outside the Japanese release for what happens when the player interacts with the sprite, hence the game crash. For anyone questioning the whole Gastrodon hating others of its species of a different color this isn't a nod towards racism, it's a nod towards natural selection. East Sea and West Sea have to compete to gain the interest of a mate so if one sees a Gastrodon of the other color trying to make an egg with a potential mate it wants, it will be aggressive to it. However if the Gastrodon is the same color, there isn't aggression because there's less competition for the potential mate. It's a nod to how some species of slug act with each other to get a mate. Solgaleo being weak to fire and Lunala being weak to dark isn't nonsense, it was intentional. Solgaleo represents the sun; if there's too much fire, the sun won't shine visibly. Lunala represents the moon; if it's too dark the moon won't shine as brightly because a night sky is just space outside our atmosphere with no color changes and space is very dense, the moon wouldn't be visible through such density surrounding the earth. Ruby and Sapphire have glitch decorations while Gold, Silver and Crystal have a glitch wallpaper. Lastly, a lot of the Pokemon color names were copyrighted to prevent rom hacks or home made games that work too heavily off the original games, hence why Gray and Delta Emerald, for example, are copyrighted but never made. Thank you for spending your time listening to me explain a few of these facts I don't think this is a healthy obsession anymore.
I love how you go from legendary dog plushies to gastrodon racism
Awesome loved all f the facts I did not know like half of them
Since Machoke's focus blast comes out as a ball and not a beam, I would say it's more like a HADUKEN!
The first time that red talks is when talking to the copycat in celadon city in fire red, leaf green
10:07 Shhh🙊 don't let Twitter know.
Yeah shhh 🤫🤫
8:08 THANK YOU!!! I've been talking about this for a long time.
1:27 ... that is electricity...
5:12 which resembles palkia space god and if u run around the other dude in blue it resembles dialga because its a waste of time
Number 82: THAT IS A MEGA EVOLUTION SOUND EFFECT! THE ECHO MATCHED AND EVERYTHING
Electabuzz, magmar and jynx used to be trios until gen4
@@regirockununun honestly, I don't think they went for the trio choice after gen 1's release. Especially since the contreversy of jynx. This is why it was never been witht the other 2 rivals ever since.
Thanks for the video. Love these!
The hopping away sudowoodo made me laugh💕 I didn't know😂
The skiddo situation is so sad. It only going to get worse from here on out considering they aren't willing to have a game with the full pokedex anymore.
Keep up the great work👍
if im not mistaken Red talks for the first time when interacting with the copycat girl in saffron city.
Hisuian Electrode' statue one is just an exploding Electrode
5:00 If you really want to go that far, Elio/Selene and their mom, and Hau and Hala (I suppose you could say that since Kukui married his wife, they married into each other’s family)
12:47 thats so nice of them giving him a squirtle plushie
You got me laughing at the first fact 😂😂😂
I think the beta Sneasel designed was recycled into Mienfoo, not Sneasler.
9:59 personally to me it feels like it’s the only way to set his soul at piece of mind
I knew less than 10 of these. Good stuff!
10:56 so he knew the whole time?
Oh, I'm well aware of the old man in Anistar City, I accidentally stumbled across it by exploring my first time playing back in 2013 & I think I gave him a Pansage or something & after I became champion, I wanted to check up to see how it was going & when I read the note, I knew. I was 22 at the time so it was easy to piece things together, I actually somewhat cried like not actually cried but felt like tears were about to well up. Ever since then, whenever I did an XY play through, I always gave a Pokemon to the old man, suppose I'm a murderer given I've beat those games 4 times, twice for each X & Y. One thing I don't think I would of found on my own in XY is the ghost girl in Lumiose City that you can encounter after becoming the champion. Back in 2013 when the games were still new & I had completed X already, I was watching videos on the games because I was totally absorbed into them & someone made a video on things you might of missed in XY, don't ask who, been too long, I don't remember anymore. They mentioned the ghost girl so I did what they said to do in order to trigger it & I knew it was coming but it still freaked me out. I kinda wish I unexpectedly found it so it'd be spookier but oh well, don't think I would of found it on my own anyways.
fun fact: Dobbs predicted the end of Ash Ketchum
In Pokemon battle revolution, the grounding outfit can be shiny
They really named the british protagonist Henry Sword
Some really interesting Facts. thanks for the Video Dobbs.
8:39 those are only two of the default names, there's a whole list
The ones he got were the name of Leaders Eisenhower and Thatche
I have been subscribed for a long time, I guess that means I knew all of these facts XD (Literally only knew not even 10)
Fact #31: when i first played FireRed I did not know about Crobat's existence in Pokemon. when i got the national dex and Golbat became Crobat I had no clue what it was till a friend told me it was in Gen 2 and FireRed is a Gen 3's take of the Gen 1 remake. Thats how i got introduced to Crobat
Now this was pretty epic and I love it
13:03 whoa whoa whoa, could that be hints towards future pokemon tittles?
Doesn't really make sense why Spearow is color blind. Birds can see just as many colors as we can, along with a few more.
Also, being colorblind doesn't mean someone sees the world as entirely black and white.
@@WayWardWonderer I know that. Why do you think we invented the term red green colorblindness
just because of the first fact I immediately subscribed because that's the funniest thing ever
Great video Dobbs! Can't wait for Pokémon facts of Kalos Pokémon and beyond!
That Lugia/dunsparce prototype looks like a boat 🤣
out of all of these i only knew 8, good job
I love the manga so much. It explains a lot of the things that happen in the games.
Ikr, the Adventures manga is my favourite adaption of the entire Pokemon franchise! ^w^
Broo... I'm currently on Gold amd Silver, but the site I'm using started having missing chapters. Currently, I have fi ished the chapter where Kris fails to catch Suicune and is sad about it, anything else after that has been broken. Do you know any other sites?
Amazing list :O
1:57 Would Rotom be plasma?
7:57 Y is also a vowel
Thats why they say and sometimes y SOMETIMES
1:44 true
10:33 ah yes rhydon (dont say it)
RHYDON DEEZ NUTS LMAO I'm sorry
6:58 whats up guys quandale dingle here
The challenge in the beginning is like telling someone that you win if you touch them then using "consecutive normal punches" from one punch man.
Crimson will probably be like the sequel to the upcoming games.
I love that last one because my favourite colour is Crimson!
Number 12 is talking about evolution. When it evolves, then bulb becomes a large tree that keeps the pokemon on all fours.
5:54 so regigigas is the future
I wasn't expecting to start my morning with Rick Sanchez spittin' Pokemon facts.
Good content!! There're so much i didn't know before, i have pressed a subscribe for you again already ☺️
2:19 OPINION!!! All These I Knew
Actually Ash has used his pokedex once on his pikachu if I recall. It was in the Advanced Generations series. He was asked questions regarding to pikachus pokedex info so he used his pokedex on it.
In gold and silver and crystal, there aren’t many mean lookers, which is why it is cool that Spinarak and Ariados are also in that group due to the unique move called spider web that does the same thing.
The Beat Up One i found out by catching houndour in pokemon platinum and i was like wondering what does beat up do i mean its dark type, and then this is totally what i imagined it would have done all your pokemon would switch out and switch back out into houndour after the move is done
Fact 12: Nailed it. You had one job, Prof. Oak
0:50 that’s pretty neat. I saw in another KZhead comment section that Dialga and Heatran’s cries were also created from music samples. Kinda funny that these are all gen 4 Pokémon.
If you click the chartper it say 156 unova facts
I heard the Jynx cry in Pokemon Go... 11:10
Lol there was exactly 10 facts I hadn't heard before 😅 well ig I better sub
It's pretty cool 1:04 but funny
