Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob and thank you so much for attending
this lecture on Pokemon biology. Joining me here in the
classroom. Today is of course, my wonderful
teaching assistant, mr. Curtis mr.
Curtis, if you could, please say hello to everybody.
Why? Hello there everybody.
It's me, mr. Curtis, I'm so, I'm just
kidding. I'm so happy that everyone's
here. Hate that.
I hate that my son. Yeah.
Hey, Corbin high. You're not gonna get a gold star
today with that attitude. I just okay.
All right. Turn into like a weird cartoon
character. Same me out.
I said yeah. Oh yeah.
Okay. Wow, sure.
Also joining us here in the classroom.
Today is of course, our young trainer and training.
Corbin. If you could, please say hello
to everybody Corbin. Hello everybody Professor.
It feels good to be here and I'm sitting on the next Ryu, I'm
near. And if you can see here, I got
two ears. Sometimes I'm scary.
But do you fear? Mmm.
It's getting pretty close to wrap.
I don't like, oh, I don't like that's not a rap.
I just kind of in a ram Rai me mood today.
That is true, I mean, that's, you know what, I've checked the
rule book and it says that it's fine.
There's no rule as no rules against just rhyming now rhyming
to some kind of beets beets or meter of some kind.
That's fine by me as you can see.
Yes, sir. Did you say to lay out a beat?
It's no personal. Not start rhyming.
Now was bad timing, stop it. I'm gonna come, I'm calling 911
jail right now. All right Corbin.
Come on, come on. I'm putting the cuffs on you,
right? Now no, no cops, no cops.
Why do you have those? Anyways, listen for any newer
students. I've been unfortunately arrested
as a juvenile because I was apparently wrapping around the
cafeteria table one day and apparently it's against school
policy and I didn't realize that.
So, sorry, I'm sure there were extenuating circumstances.
I can't quite remember them. You know, what would be a very
good t-shirt. It's a, it's a rhetorical.
Question. I'm going to tell you what, a
good idea for a t-shirt, would be to have crimmins a mug shot.
Oh really? Oh an interesting.
That would be so great. Yeah, I don't think I don't
think many virtual students would walk around town wearing
my mug shot on them. I mean, then I would imagine
somebody going up to them. Hey, what's up with your shirt?
Just a kid from my class. Yeah.
Like what? That sounds great.
What are you talking about? How can a my class got arrested?
Never met him. We We all wear t-shirts about
it. It's a, it's two ways to raise
awareness actually. I mean, there's definitely
posters around the school and some people laugh at me but
that's okay. Yeah, that's a Wanted Dead or
Alive. Yeah.
Okay. No.
Have you seen any see this young boy?
No, it's just that, it's a warning.
It's there's one of the way to the cafeteria that says this is
what happens when you wrap where you should eat and it's just a
picture of me in the clink crying.
He's crying. Yes sir.
Grrr. I was I so if anybody wants to,
you know, do a mock-up for that and send it to us to our to our
Gengar mail, which is W wo Pokémon at gmail.com.
I would very much love to see it.
But, you know, it's great that you're in a musical, kind of
mood Corbin at least a rhyming mood you as well.
Mr. Curtis excellent. Excellent beats there as even
though they went the Buddha. Buddha got because we are
learning about a very musical Pokemon today.
But before, Oh, Yes, before we get into that, I actually have a
very, very important Gmail to read.
In fact, it is the presidential address from our new class
president. Oh, Cason.
Yes, we we got it. I don't remember sending in a
presidential address this year. I'm sorry, I had to wait for the
song to finish. I didn't send in a presidential
address. What's?
Well, that's because you're not the president.
You all thought I can trick you into making me president again,
okay. Y'all, y'all almost got me, you
know, you're a Wily one, but no, we got email from our new class,
president casein. So I'm going to read this dress,
remember everything in, this is binding for the next six months.
Okay. All right, I guess more like
five months at this point, but I always says my Hello students of
the Saffron City Learning Center.
I'm very proud to be your class president and as your class
president, I vowed to make our school, a better place to learn
about all the amazing Pokemon in our world.
I appreciate all that Corbin has done his time as president, but
it's time for a new era. The era of casein, hmm,
applause, applause, applause, applause, right there to make it
sound like There's way more people in class, it's just us.
Yeah, it's maybe an important maybe you could also add in like
some like you know like a like a very official sounding, I don't
know, some kind of like trumpets or something in the background
kind of like what mr. Curtis was doing with his mouth
earlier but like actual but it sounds good.
That sounds actually good and real.
Thank you Portia. Hey hey.
Come on now. Uh-huh.
The principal likes it. The principal hates you.
So yeah, I know when you hear from the principal, I mean he
told me to go stand outside behind the shed and do it
because he liked it so much. Oh right, I just saw him when he
told you that he put very heavy air quotes over.
Liked it so much. Yeah.
Okay let me finish reading this. This the shut up artists.
All right. So settle down, settle down.
Applause. Stop for now music.
A little bit louder. Thank you.
All right, I believe this is casein communion on.
I believe that our school is the best place to learn.
All there is to know about Pokémon as we learn about
Pokémon and their abilities environments and
characteristics. We are beginning, the journey
towards being trainers today. We learn from Pokedex entries
from trainers around the world. Some day, we will find catch and
train our own Pokemon so that we can teach future.
It's the joy of Pokemon PS. Please give core in five gold
stars for his effort as president.
I meant to be. Unfortunately there have been no
president, no class Presence by the name of Corin.
So I guess I'll just take those five gold stars.
Here you go. Professor, thank you.
Thank you very much. In case we ever get a class
president, by the name of chlorine, we can give them those
little stars about Korbin, please.
Are we have no way of knowing if that's what they actually meant
Corbin. I'm sorry.
And then it goes on to say PPS, I'm announcing Cade as my
student body, vice president. Oh there we go.
Which for the record means, I get to tell him what to do.
Well body either, right. Yes I okayed is his brother.
Wait, all I have a quite I have a quick question about how much
is all I have had. I have had A couple people in
the Discord, which you have it is Cornell links in the
description below their Patron. People have asked us if there is
going to be a vice president and well I am I have told everybody.
It is me, so sorry. No unfortunately no.
However. So I was previously saying that
there was no vice president, however, our student class
president in their presidential address.
Did say that there is a vice president so it's kind of what
we gotta go with now. So I want to be, I want to be
Secretary of Defense. I think the I think the
president can name a vice president.
That's fine. And I think it's good.
Mr. President casein. Can I be Secretary of Defense?
I will defend our school against threats of the unknown?
I'm waiting for a response. You're gonna be waiting for a
while. I want to be, I want to be the
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development mr.
Curtis just because You know, I think that makes sense actually
considering the amount of construction work he has caused,
I think, right? Is the correct phrase.
So I guess you have a pretty good idea of how it works now.
Anyways, thank you so much president casein for your
address. We very much appreciate it and
we know that you will do an excellent job during your
tenure, as here. Here here here here here here,
more plus point rightly, and then out, Outgoing.
That's a good. No mr.
Chris will have. Porsche at that end, you don't
need to know. It's play.
It's playing right now. Can you hear?
It's playing right now? Yeah, yeah, me, yeah.
You can't hear it. But yeah, it doesn't sound as
good as mine, but okay, sure. All right, all right.
Let's move onto to the Pokémon that were talking about today.
Does anybody know who that is? I did give you a hint.
Is it just situate? I thought he said something
about the situation earlier. Okay, we got, we got that one
out of the way. We got that out of the way.
Now who has a real guess my real, guess I always take this
class here. So what we do is this a water
type today is a water-type? Yes.
Also it S for S. Is it Le porous?
That sounds like guys. It's the poorest sounds like a
Lapras would like to serve bunch of like pores and stuff and I
don't like that. Yes, that is true.
No, it's laughs disease Lapras. That makes so much.
Okay, sorry I got to pronounce. EI got the I got the lowland
pronunciation. I think I don't think so.
I don't think anybody pronounces it like that actually.
OK. I mean, maybe it will say in the
poker countries but I'd pretty sure nobody refers to it as Le
porous. But, yeah, laughs horses are
extremely rare. At least they have been for a
while. Although I do have information
that states that they are, you know, becoming a little bit more
common. Well, they're the Population is
happening. But so I wouldn't be surprised
if you guys haven't seen one. So I guess.
Have you seen a Lapras before? Um, not in person?
No, I have. I have been ferried on allow.
Okay. They're not quite.
They're quite good. But your ears.
Yeah. Well actually, they're very
water and ice type. They aren't very tight.
Mr. Curtis whoa. Well of course, I was carried by
laparis on its back. Okay.
As I was exploring some of the islands in the Lola region, when
we went there on our Trip. Oh, you didn't tell us.
Yeah, he didn't, he didn't bring us a little, a per store by
yourself. Come on, man.
Well, I mean, I was looking for a present for the professor so I
couldn't tell him, I was going to find one.
That's fair. Well, I will come with you.
Where did you think I found that remote rare.
Volcanic Crystal Professor? I thought you stole it from a
museum. Honestly.
Oh, is that what you did for me? I mean, you know, they're there
might have been a museum on the island I got Ferry or carried to
but you know but I definitely didn't get it from there.
Okay, time to move on to class sounds like another illegal
activity from mister mister, I have no idea take our eyes off
this guy. I'd love to learn about laparis,
I know you would. Well, I have a Lapras here
today. I know, it's very uncommon for
me to do that, right to bring the Pokemon along, but we all
ready to get our eyes on? Ya, I am so ready?
Yes. All right, here we go.
This is a Lapras Whoa. She is beautiful.
Look at that beauty. Mrs. Curtis.
Have you ever in your life seen? Such a beautiful Pokemon.
I mean, I mean, not as beautiful as a spinner actually closed.
Shut up. That's not.
But, Hey, listen. You know what?
Listen to that call, though? Beautiful town that now County,
man was outside. I could ride, I could write her
around the pond. Is it is, it is it a lady to be?
No. Yes, it is a female.
So, Oh yeah, laughs forces can be male or female this one.
Just so happens to be female. Oh, don't.
I don't actually have a name for it yet if we were, I don't know.
I mean, I don't do you have a, do you have a name in mine
Corbin? Honestly, I mean, it's I'm
rubbing my temples here. I'm rubbing my brain.
Well, you know, I will say, I need a beautiful beautiful name
to match this beautiful beautiful Pokémon and it is I
got it. I got it.
What? It's been.
It's been been been been oh as in like Benjamin Benjamin.
Yeah I was short and sweet until the point I mean it's just hmm
and it just it the at some about then it's yeah some about the
color blue so case you know really mix it up and call it.
Like the second half like jamun for short like I was gonna
vomit. I was gonna say because like you
know the song that comes Comes out of Lapras is very jamming.
So I like that jamun. Yeah, bands that, we can say,
its name Benjamin for short. I like that.
Hello jamun. Beautiful.
Beautiful girl. So you you call her jamun and
but you know, come over bent. Think it's I'm a quote don't
worry I know your right name is Ben.
Please don't talk directly into my lap.
Forces are just kind of. I'm just going to stroke stroke
your neck right here. The like that is anybody
Actually, it's okay. So let's talk a little bit about
jamun. What, what, what do you what do
you notice about her? What are some outstanding
characteristic, some features if you will?
Well, I mean, obviously, she's very big and blue, and she's got
like flippers on the front. Oh, actually more on the side.
So, I just get two big flippers on the front of her body.
And then, on the back, cut into smaller, flippers got to leave a
little tail, and then she's got a big old gray shell to yeah,
like, that. It's pretty cool.
Um well like little kind of like spikes on it but I'm not like
spiky spikes are kind of like you know round at the tips is to
not hurt. Definitely good for human
writing and then got a little horn.
Got a cool little horn up top. Love that little Bridge
subscriber, Lee ears. So squirrelly ears.
We're really girly. Swirly swirly.
Yeah, I would say swirly, I don't think squirrely as a word.
That's right. Yeah, very swirly little ears.
Looks like little bun. One's love it and could just say
like that look it looks like she knows something right she's got
it. Well I mean she's got to look
about her it's like she's like why are you looking at me like
that and can I just say confidence confidence?
I think confidence, really just exude professor.
She's looking at me. Like she knows exactly what I'm
thinking. What are you thinking?
I don't know, but she's just smiling at me.
I guess I must. I don't kill a person.
Has read minds like Abra cadabra good.
This is a good question. They might be able to as well
read and do these Pokedex entries.
But really, but before that, does anybody want to take a ride
on this Lapras hear it in, on the floor, it's just on the
floor for it. Okay.
Sure. Our little Club when I let me
come on Louis Loom, do that. Okay, all right here is first
letter, stick your hand. Oh okay here we go.
She I mean I've been stroking her neck this whole time so she
she knows she's familiar with that.
One who's getting On isn't mr. Curtis, there's I'm getting on
mr. Curtis, I mean beside.
I'm so to get on. I'm gonna mine Corbin.
All right, cool. Don't grab my hips kick.
Hey off, get off. Get off, guys.
We gotta hold on, tight. So, remember your group
assignments. Remember to remember what you
learned in your group assignment, the, the
camaraderie, and the teamwork that you learned in that, and
apply that here, as you're trying to get artists, the lab
or allow, you will allow you to hold my hips.
Okay, good out, good. I'll just wrap myself art my
arms right around, you like that.
Little thing, Lou Sinatra, big big hug.
Okay, okay, I'm sorry. I close my eyes briefly.
Are you guys on the Lapras yet or have you drawn the Libras?
Okay. Hey, hey, we're here, we're here
on over there. Okay, so how's that?
How's that? How's the house?
Is it smooth? Is it a good Rider?
I mean, she's not moving yet. We're just saying, hey jongmin,
take a, take a lap around the room.
That's a desk. Why did we do this outside sense
that he did it inside? This is fun though.
I'm loving it. It's a pain to move the
recording device outside and there's like a lot of bird
Pokemon out there that just kind of like, oh, giddy up girl.
Hey, test out, see where she lands on the hability scale.
Oh my God, 10 10. 10 is pretty good.
That you were called. Not the highest we can go 13.
Okay, so you're going, okay, so 13, 13, 13 9s, she read the
highest on the scale of the scale of 3240.
Yes, I am giving again. Is it 3 to 14?
Or is it 4213? It is 3214.
All right. If I don't take your word for it
and and put it trust me. Listen, I designed this scale.
Okay. With, with the spinarak being 14
and and Magmar Being a three. I put Lapras at a put a lap or
7-Eleven. Yeah I think I think I think a
10 is pretty good. It really really easy for me I
feel like a thanks for the ride home.
Girl preciate you a Pokemon that has a 14 is like huggable from
all angles, but you had to get Lapras at a very specific angle.
Sometimes it's a little wet and slimy to because it's in the
water and you know, sometimes you want that but other times
you don't want that she's not that's Me right now.
She feels good. She got really nice skin, but
yeah, what is your hey, drop the skin care routine.
Am I right? Come on, gentlemen, come on.
Let's see it. Okay, well I think we've played
around with jamun enough. Let's go ahead and put her back
into the Pokeball and start drawing some pokedex entry.
Can we please write her out in the pond next or like after
class will see? No promises?
No. Probably we all ought to take
care of. All right, all right, by jamun.
I love you so much already. All right, let's go ahead and
start reading. Ian pokedex entry is from the
Kanto region. First one says, write a Pokemon
that has been over hunted almost to Extinction it could carry
people across the water. No one told me that my tote.
Hey, no, I definitely told you that multiple times.
I think we're talking about the over hunted almost to Extinction
part. Oh, well great is that what
you're referring to corporate? Yeah, that's what I meant.
Yeah, no. Compare people across the water
but like, oh my God. Yeah and awful, who would hunt
this thing? That's a very good question as
we go ahead and read a lot of these entries.
This will be something that comes up a lot in the fact that
it's overhunted. However I mean we don't really
know why they are hunted, is it feels like they're valuable is
it to eat them as it for their shells?
Is it just you know I like I don't know why like just for the
thrill of it. Hmm, II don't know, probably all
of the above. There are some sick.
People out there. Do you think that?
No, do you think Lapras meat tastes like really good, what if
it like, what if Lapras is? Just tastes really good.
I don't know, I don't know that I would eat, you know, Lapras I
would, I always feel bad about it.
Here's to beautiful. You know what?
If I told you you already have what happened now?
Lunch today. Haha, I switched out the usual
mystery meat with Lapras Wally It's a good thing its morning
time because I won't eat lunch. Dah dang.
It killed that lap for us for nothing.
What? Well, how do you think I got?
The meat Corbin first, mr. Curtis is killing water-type
Pokémon in the professor. I don't know if I could be here
in this class. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
I've never been convicted of killing.
Any Pokemon accused is just as good.
Now, I don't know if I could be here Professor.
I'm so sorry. I think I'm gonna have to
depart. I'm I was joke.
I didn't actually kill a Lapras. That would be horrible.
That would be A horrible thing to do.
They are. And they are also protected by
the, by the the Indigo League. So, if you kill a Lapras, you do
have to lose a hand. No, you have to fight toe-to-toe
with Lance's Dragonite. You're not allowed to use a
Pokemon. Yep.
That's so that crying worse than losing a hand.
You Get Hyper Beam to to Oblivion by his Dragonite.
Yeah. It's pretty much a death
sentence. If you think about it you get a
full face of. Oh, that was a very good hype.
Being give me. Give me another take of that.
He's already done this. We've already heard Corbin's
Hyper Beam before. It's very good.
We don't want nobody. Nobody else wanted people.
Don't people didn't tune in for that.
All right, let's keep going. Although I will say, have we
heard mr. Curtis has Hyper Beam.
I think we have, but it's been a while mr.
Curtis, it's been a while. That's very, very quick, very
quick, very quick, very quick. Oh whiskers, you stubbed your
toe? All right now it's time for the
Hyper Beam that was so long. All right, let's read the second
entry. The second entry on Lapras.
All right, that's gonna be a long less than hug guys.
Let's make it fast. A gentle soul that can read the
minds of people. What?
Hmm, I can read the minds of people that wait.
Yeah, that was why you have a smile on my face.
It knows that I was just filled with pure joy thinking about it.
Oh, that makes so much sense. Now, And the entry goes on to
say it can Ferry people across the sea on its back.
Like so okay, cool. I can, it can Ferry people on
the sea on its back. That's like as far as I'm
concerned. The least interesting part about
Lapras. Let's do, let's talk more about
this, the thing that it can read minds.
Hmm, so why not? Yeah, it could read it a gentle
soul that can read the minds of people.
Hmm. So like again like reading
emotions or You reading like like is it just thoughts?
It's lovers comes up to you. It's like, I'm an MP and path.
I mean, maybe right, I think, I think maybe I think the the
Pokedex entry is saying that like it's very like empathetic
exactly what empathetic, right? Like it can read your intentions
and how covid a person you are. And that's why I loved me
because I'm a great person, but I don't think it actually has
like, telepathy - Mind reading powers.
Well, that's great. Mr. Curtis, however, the Pokedex
entry does stay with the beyond a shadow of the doubt, a gentle
soul that can read the minds of people.
All right. You really gonna argue with
Professor Oak. I mean, come on.
So it as far as I'm concerned, it can read your mind.
Not just a sense, your feelings. If that's what you say,
Professor then. That's the truth.
I've got no, it Professor Oak. I will argue with.
But our professor Jacob absolutely not what he says.
Goes. Yeah, that's all.
That's a lot of power on my shoulders just today jailed.
So I'll, you know, I'll do my best and continue reading.
These Pokedex entries capable of understanding the language of
humans. It enjoys ferrying people on its
back. It is on the verge of
Extinction. Hmm.
So it's a good thing that I enjoy it, like a can Ferry
people across water on its back, but from this Century we learned
that it in actually enjoys that. So you know, It's not like
we're, you know, putting them to work or anything, we're just
allowing them to do what they love, mmm, right.
Which is ferrying us across the oceans and seas and stuff,
right? Right.
And also, this just says, it says, capable of understanding
the language of humans, which is not that an impressive feat
Dolby on, right? So, like, it understands our
language most and C'Mon do actually write a lot of them
can't. So it's that's not that much of
a flex, right? Yeah.
Reading our minds or speaking our language.
Now those are those are two things that are that is cool.
That's like uncommon but being able to understand what we say,
yeah that's not that impressive. Sorry Lapras, right?
Yeah, be cooler. I guess.
Maybe you wouldn't get hunted to Extinction you.
Still love you. Jonathan, you know, lappers, if
you really could read people's minds, maybe you would know to,
you know, Dodge that spear or Harpoon or what.
Wow. All right.
That's a little too soon. You know, sorry I was somewhere
down somewhere to have some feeling a little bit edgy today
for this lesson. I don't know why.
Yeah, it's sold out. All right, let's move on to the
Johto region. The first entry, says they have
gentle Hearts because because they rarely fight many have been
caught their number has dwindled again, why though said, why, why
are we hunting them? Why are we catching them for?
What? It is said though that they have
a lover's heart for service, they have to they have to Very
all the people on the ferry, they like it.
We just asked them to do that. We don't have to they like doing
that. We have to catch them.
Also we catch a lot of Pokémon. You know.
Any Ratatat we caught we've caught.
Sorry Reddit a little bit like we catch him.
Red Cent Rattata. We catch them all the time.
We're taytay's as mr. Curtis says, protect Otto's.
Yeah, we've caught like millions of them there so there's almost
too many. Okay.
So the next entry says it fairies people across the sea on
its back. Back.
It may sing an enchanting cry if it is in a good mood.
Mmm. Yeah, let's make sense.
Yeah well I mean we definitely heard her cry like it seemed
like jamun was in a good mood today.
Yeah, I mean, she's just a, a pretty happy laparis honestly.
I'm, he is very happy, Li hashtag blessed to have her as
my Lapras. Yes, yes, yes, I do use her as
she is my primary form of transportation, though.
So, right, that's why it takes me forever to get You know,
places that are landlocked slides across the ground, he had
just slowly drags herself across the ground, right?
That's I feel like that can't be healthy for a Lapras.
I mean, they've only got, you know, they're meant to be in the
water. Yeah, it's not like they have
hard like carapace is on their stomach or anything.
It's probably gonna get cut up real bad.
I should probably rethink using her.
Yeah, not on asphalt were roads are the next month.
Three says this, gentle Pokemon loves to give people rides and
provides a very comfortable way to get around.
Yeah. So again, we don't have to
capture them to near-extinction to make them, you know?
Do that for you. They want to do that.
That's their thing. They loved it.
They loved honestly, their favorite thing.
Yeah, all right. Moving on to the Hoenn region.
The first entry says, people have driven Lapras almost to the
point of Extinction in the evenings.
This Pokemon is said to sing plaintively as it seeks.
As it seeks for what few others of its kind still remain.
Oh, oh, oh, that's sad. It's that is very sad.
That is pitiful. It does say the word.
The wording here is interesting because it says, people have
driven Lapras almost to the point of Extinction.
It really does sound like we're just riding them so much that he
just died. Oh yeah that's I think about
that way. Yeah, I mean or that were
hunting them and Using their shells, little confusing
sounding, but hey, you know what it did it is, it's the Pokedex
entry. So that's how it, that's how
it's going to be. This is how it's gonna be.
All right, so the next entry here from the Hoenn region, the
last one says it's high intelligent intelligence.
Enables it to understand human speech.
It likes the very people on its back again.
Yeah. We know that about all that bad.
I mean, I'm sure there's something about her that don't
understand human speech, but I feel like most of them have to
in order to be able to take commands in battle.
Yeah. Like what what dumb Pokemon do
you think don't understand human speech.
I'm gonna say Magikarp. Absolutely, mmm.
Nope. There is not a thought behind
those eyes slacking. No slacking.
Seems like they would know what humans are saying.
That is purposely ignore it. Mmm.
Snorlax I don't think as a snore.
I just got nothing going on up there.
This is is the same thing there. I think they know they just
choose not to. Thanks.
This. Don't care.
Yeah. Yeah.
You just point and click with the snow.
Relax, that's how it works. Click playing click wait.
What? Like a clicker?
Like-for-like conditioning. Sorry.
I was trying to think of other dumb Pokemon and that that
almost went over my head but I can explain, I guess, I guess
you're a dumb Pokemon point. You point, go?
And then and then you unlock it. Well, I don't know what it was.
It's not a car, mr. Curtis, it's like it's a
command. It's a hey, over here.
So what are you pointing at? Are you pointing at the Snorlax
or you pointing at whatever you want it to do you go you go you
click once to get the Snorlax attention and then you point out
what you want the Snorlax to get and you go?
Yeah. Uh-huh.
Okay so Okay, it's a it sound driven motivated.
I think it's food driven and food motivated, but I guess you
wouldn't know that because we haven't talked about Snorlax
yet. Maybe we haven't talked about
Snorlax yet, right? No, no, maybe a couple weeks.
I don't know you. The professor.
You should know. I should know this.
It just so they don't even read your own.
Syllabus these lessons really blur together.
Know we have we have a couple more lessons to go before we get
Snorlax. We has taught this lesson in his
class quite a few times corporate.
Yeah, they all blur together. All right, where was I?
Moving on to the Sinnoh region. There's only one entry here.
It says, it loves crossing the sea with the people and Pokémon
on its back. It understands human speech.
Yeah, we know, we know, we know, we get it.
All right, nothing new from the, you know, region, nothing new
from the Kalos region. Let's get into the ololo region,
its high intelligence, enables it to comprehend, human speech
when it is in a good mood, it sings and it's beautiful voice.
Okay? Love that.
Love it again. Re stuff.
We know. So not super exciting.
Hmm, we heard it earlier. Well, yeah, she was a great cry.
Great call. Alright, the next one says,
these Pokemon were once near Extinction due to poaching.
Following protective regulations there is now an overabundance of
them. Well, oh, it's okay.
Is that specifically in a Lola or in general?
I don't know. Hard to tell that has to be the
case because it can't. I mean, since so many of the
other spots that talk about how low they are, I guess, in a Lola
they've, you know, tip picked it back up.
Male Lola, really does sound like the place to be.
I know we feel like I feel like we say that every class, like
every lesson, like, because Lowell always talks about how,
like, great things are there. Like, I mean, like we're
everywhere else. We're lappers is dying.
They're thriving in a Lola sounds.
Right. You know, I am honestly
considering moving there and just taking this class virtually
like, all the other students, here's what I think I do know
that that's not you didn't pay for the virtual key.
You your virtual key virtual key to class, you know, the to to
where the stream is held. People have two people have Pay
that this is free. Well no no I mean yeah but you
didn't pay enough to pay to take it virtually you.
You just paid the in-class portion and I will serve
everybody who's listening to this had to pay money.
Uh-huh. Yes.
If they have and if they are listening to it right now and
they haven't paid money, they are listening to it illegally
and I will find you and I will hunt you down and you are settle
down settle down. They're learning, they're
learning, they're learning though.
There are others. Have a particular set of skills
that makes it. That makes you stink really bad.
Spinarak, man, is what we call them.
Are we talking about? Oh yeah.
Okay, here's here's my, here's my conspiracy theory on the Ole
Ola region. So when when you know, regions,
get added to the National Pokedex registry, right?
When they can add their Pokedex entries into the Pokédex.
You know, most of them, you know, do it as its intended as
a, you know, learning exercise as a, as a, as a documentation
service to to improve our knowledge on the Pokemon.
Right. I think a Lola's main goal here
is to they're using it as a not propaganda but like as an
advertisement for tourism to come to the Ole Ola region, I
think they are gaming. The system easier for me, I said
I wanted to move there. Yeah, here's the thing.
I don't think it's all true though, howling.
I think you're gonna get there. Come see our mag.
Murmurs, they burn hotter here. I don't know.
I don't know Professor Palm wouldn't lie about how great a
Lola is, right? I mean, he lives there, he's
thriving, he is thriving, but, you know, you, maybe he's just
one of the lucky few that was able to cut it in the high Pace.
High action, world of a Lola. Well at least he's making bank.
Am I right? No I hate that guy.
Oh well, the professor hates him.
I hate him. You get him out of here while I
love him to pieces and I will be informing him that you hate him.
He doesn't listen to our lessons, so he'll never know.
Okay, also tell me what, no, don't tell him.
Stop it. You don't, you don't you don't
you, how would you contact him? He don't have his phone.
Number anything, I will search him on the interweb.
I will, I will towel grab a pelipper and I will whisper into
its ear. Professor Palm, find it, find
him. Professor Paul and it will go a
little know what that meaning their magic.
Exactly. Alright.
The next entry in the older agent says it, like swimming
around with people on its back in the old Lola region.
I'm gonna start saying it and like a more and more goofy
voice. Every time, every time they have
in the Lola region, in one of their Pokedex entries, you law
region. It's an important definitions of
Transportation over water. All the all the students from a
Lola Going to feel like you're making fun of them all.
I am making fun of them. Your region is silly.
Oh, it's silly and also promised your pompous.
Whoa, you gonna take that all the residents, huh?
Now I'm going to take that. Well, you know, he'll wear
that's why this is true, then it's true.
You know you guys should do and now but wait, Professor just
know you got to come through me. You said you were going to say
something Corbin I? I was gonna say So, what I
wanted to say was, you know, how you could really give two a Lola
residents, you how you can really give the professor a
piece of your mind. If you go to our patreon and
donates, you can you can submit a question to the Q&A in the
question could be why are you such a jerk professor?
And he has to answer that in the Q&A.
Here, we have to answer all the questions we get, no matter how
good or bad. So, you know, honestly, Sean
what's up by supporting us on patreon, please do that because
I would also like to have that question answered.
Oh, yeah, no doubt. I don't know.
I'm assuming somebody will answer and they'll shine a light
into my world and helped me realize why I'm such a such a
jerk sometimes. Been wondering for years.
Hey hey, don't you say that about the professor even you
Professor. Can't say that about the
professor. Wait.
So you say years Corbin. Yes.
How old are you 10? Huh.
How old were you? When we started I think I was
still 10 right? Let's Let's not think too hard
about that. I guess are some takes a long
time for the Earth revolves around the Sun here.
That is true. Well then it hasn't been a lot
of years. Okay, there are, we're getting
into the weeds. I just want to read this Next
Century. Yes, they have been so cherished
that there's now an overabundance, the fish Pokémon
population has declined in waters with too many Lapras.
Oh guys, a quick little pop quiz here.
Who's the fish Pokémon in a Lola?
Rocks Ash, which is fine. If they disappear I deceived you
I it's definitely deciduous. Shut up, you're an idiot.
And you know, that's not true. No, of course, it's got to be
magic car again. I, it's probably Magic Carpet.
I hope it's Brooks ish. Well.
So I will say Magikarp, is the fish Pokémon is what I was
trying to get at, right? It, that's, it's categorization.
And breakfasts is the Nash teeth, Pokémon, so not quite the
same. So when I am, Atomically.
It is considered a fish Pokémon. I'm not all.
There is the fish .v fish Pokémon but it is but it is a
fish looking Pokemon. Well, this pokedex entry says,
the fish Pokémon population has declined in waters.
Oh well, kill a much so I assume it's referring to Magikarp with
its categorization instead of its actual naked.
Never mind. Yeah, it's magic card.
All right, case closed case closed, we figured it out.
All right, moving on to the gala region.
The first entry says a smart And kind-hearted Pokemon, it Glides
across the surface of the sea while.
It's beautiful song Echoes around it.
Oh that's beautiful or just we yeah we heard that beautiful
song earlier it's hot. I don't know about that.
Yeah, I like it a lot more when when jamun did it.
Okay, all right, sir. Alright, the last entry from the
Galleries and says, Crossing icc's is no issue for this cold
resistant Pokémon its smooth. Skin is a little cool to the
touch. Oh like that.
Yeah, you factor that into your your hug ability score Corbin.
I did well, depending on, you know, I kind of run a little hot
Temperature-wise. So hugging a cool soft Pokémon
works for me. This occurs, how do you want way
in here? I think that the best Pokemon
for hugging. It's been wrecked.
Okay. Alright.
Okay, clear when mr. Curry's doesn't have anything to
say he defaults back to spinarak.
It's like it's Just like a broken record man.
Having his just like he's got brain.
Damage is just like Spooks. Pinterest is like a broken toy.
All right, moving on. So we've completed the original
Pokedex entries. I do have some unique Pokedex
entries. The first one says it comes to
us from ashes. Pokedex it says Lapras.
This intellectually Advanced Pokemon is able to understand
human speech with its mild temperament.
Lapras prefers to carry humans on its back rather than rather
than engage in Pokémon battles. That makes sense.
It's a lover, not a fighter lover, not a fighter, that's
simple. And then the next one comes to
us from Stevie. Sayers is doesn't like you
should be on a t-shirt. There's somebody about no no,
no. You sure Honestly, though.
But I could actually see that. That's a good idea Professor.
Write that down lover not a fighter.
All right? The last entry last unique entry
comes to us from Serena's Pokédex.
We rarely get Serena Pokedex entries, so it says Lapras the
transport Pokémon On Lapras enjoys caring people on its back
and it understands what people are saying and also what they're
thinking. And like only one Pokédex entry
mentioned that. But it's true.
It does read minds gonna say, only one Pokédex entry is
mentioned that if it's, in the Pokédex, and the professor says,
it's in the Pokédex, then, I mean, says real.
Yeah. All right, so we're always so
know if it's in the, I don't have to say that it's in the
Pokédex, right? As long as if it is in the
Pokédex, it's real. You don't have to wait for you
to say it for it to be real mr. Curtis as long as it's in the
Pokédex. Hmm.
Yes. Just blindly believe, whatever's
in the Pokédex, mr. Curtis.
Yes. Dear do that.
That's that's the whole point of this class but listen to
professor says, I have to do it. So everything that's in there is
true. Yeah.
Okay. Even the things that contradict
each other, especially the things that contradict each
other. If the Pokedex entries told you
to burn your own house down, you'd have to do it.
I mean, then The Pokedex is not about, you know instructions,
it's about information came out, but what is true in the world,
it's more of a lifestyle really, if you go to your pokedex entry.
Mr. Curtis and it says mr. Curtis is are well known for
burning their own houses down, then you would have to go and
burn your house down. Well, he's not in the Pokédex
because not a Pokémon. I'm just saying if he ever gets
added into the Pokédex and it says that then he would have to
do it. What would it say if I got added
I the young trainer and training or Corbin the trainer in
training, Pokemon this Pokemon's life is generally very sad.
It's snowing two attempts to start rapping but quickly is
stopped by those around it and it's has to share its bed with
its family members. What?
But I have a cool and like, you know, like moveset right for
Vince most redeeming feature is his father.
Mr. Moss that's not nearly enough Is related to mr.
Mime. Oh no I'm not Revolution.
No, not my dad move on mr. Corwin includes only status
affecting moves. He does not know any damaging
moves. Okay.
All right. Enough bullying.
He knows you tailspin or tail whip.
He knows sand attack. I could I could whip up some
sand. Growl growl.
And fake tears, although they're all very real trust me.
Okay. So that does it for the entries
on Lapras. But however, Lapras has a
different form. We haven't done one of these in
a while. Whoa, what was that?
I was just really startled. Sorry, okay, well it has a
gigantic Max for me, haven't done one of these in a while.
So I have actually a hand out here.
I don't, we can't hand it out. After the Gengar issue we can't
really gigantic. Max Pokemon just just for the
ganger shoe. I just I haven't I try to block
that out. Okay, that's fair enough.
So here I have a picture here is here. 1 3 T of this is this is
what gigantic Lapras looks like he could eautiful.
Just please please note. The differences between regular
Lapras and giganta, Max lapis. I mean, besides size, it is Big.
We know that, okay, I was gonna say this one's pretty big, okay.
Barry. I mean, you Like you could fit
like like at least like 4,000 people want to shout, it may be
like 200, but 4000 District, maybe 4999 or maybe 5001, maybe
somewhere in between those two numbers.
I mean that's very oddly specific Professor but I mean
yeah. I mean it looks like it could
fit a lot me. How big is this?
It's kind of big. It's got a like a almost looks
like a volcano on its back. That's a big big.
Center spiked with the swirly cloudy bit above it and it's got
ice shards floating along its body.
I'll poke all gigantic, Max Pokemon do somewhere around
them, have those like bread clouds that's just the giganta
max energy. So I don't think it's a volcano.
I just think it's the spikes and ridges on its back on its shell.
Well then don't, you know, I have to say it's not a volcano
because sometimes when Pokemon gigantic actually do have things
like volcanoes on them, right, right.
Right by only that's the case. Here, it has a, it's got a
musical staff around it. With some floating ice B, it
does look a little bit, like a musical staff, I would say,
that's not quite exactly what that is.
But, you know, it very, very astute observation Corbin that
was mr. Curtis, but being such an
abstract observation, I would see why you would think it would
be me. So that's right.
I did hear you say something about crystals around it,
beforehand Corbin so Right. Right.
Crystals floating around its body.
Yeah, you did say that. But yes Miss occurs you did also
notice it so very good. All right, so let's do quick
notes. Now that I'm thinking about it
and scales, ya do ya? I think I do think that, you
know, if that was a design Choice by the Lapras has, when
they giganta maxed but they do also, they do serve a function,
right? So the first thing is look
pretty. No, that's not why.
All right, so these entries To us from the gala region, which
is the only place where giganta maxing happens.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, we're in Saffron in it
happened. Oh, well, there's a power spot
urgent that's school but that's the only place outside of gal.
Are that has a power. So yes, that can except for,
except for the, you know, this is the one exception that proves
the rule Corbin. Oh, and listen, listen, I paid a
lot of money for them to artificially.
Install that power spot underneath.
You did not know that it wasn't no, no.
Oh, it's been here. The school was built over 250
years ago and it was built on a power source.
Okay, I took history class. This is one of the first
permanent buildings in the Kanto region.
All right? So don't that's that, that's
lore. That that is, that has been
recorded. Yes, I mean, the scholars have
recorded that the scholars? Yes.
All right, let's read these gigantic centuries.
The first one says over 5,000, people can ride on it.
All at once and is very comfortable ride without the
slightest shaking or swaying. Wow.
Okay. Yeah, stable as a rock.
Yeah, love it. Can't relate.
Also the fact that it says over 5,000 people can ride in its
shell at once. It's just, you know, really not
the best method of describing how many people, right?
Because that saying over 5,000, people can mean a majority of
numbers. I would say most numbers are
over 5,000. Well it's saying like five
thousand give or take we can only 5,000 5,000 20.
Well then it should say about 5,000 and not over 5,000 because
that makes it sound like. It can't have any number that's
lower than 5,000 people on it at any given time and potato
potahto well no not quite as I think it's a very important
point and you know, who's the? Who's the Professor over in the
gala region is so much Sycamore. I think know.
It's, it's a her granddaughter took over as the professor.
Oh, so sycamores Magnolia, Lane Magnolia, is that that's
Magnolia, man. I should really have a list of
Pokemon professor. They just just, just some notes
for you, Professor Magnolia, just go ahead.
And, you know, just say about 5,000, Or, you know, on average,
five thousand people, just so we'd so we're not confused.
Alright, the last entry says it's surrounds itself with a
huge ring of gathered, ice particles.
It uses the ring to smash any icebergs, that might impede its
graceful swimming. Yes, fight ice with ice.
I was so that's what you use it for beauty and function love
that it's got it all a double threat.
All right, so that doesn't at all the It's entries for Lapras.
I think it's time we move on to our testing portion of the
lesson and I don't think, you know, I thought a lot about this
and I don't think there's a better assignment we could do
for Lapras then a poem. Oh yeah if we could all take
some time just to think of and this is this is really a
freebie. I don't really have a rubric for
this one. I just want to hear you guys you
know, just just just flex your creative muscles here and try
your best to come. Up with a beautiful poem so take
your time, write something about Lapras and then we'll recited
for each other. When you're ready, you got it.
I mean honestly, that's why it's my favorite because I just get
to be myself. You do?
You do generally do a pretty good job at it Corvette.
I will say thank you. Thank you mr.
Chris, you're okay too I guess. Oh, um, okay, it's you are you
do you do haikus a lot? And you know I just in general I
don't really like haikus. That's just that's that's a me
thing that I struggle with. It up, mr.
Curtis, come up out. Wow, I guess I won't do a haiku
this time you can. I'm just saying, I'd personally
don't like haikus. You're still gonna get full
points as long as you do something.
We'll see. We'll see.
No, I mean, I live to please, you Professor.
It's true. That is your entire existence
revolves around, pleasing me. All right, so let's see here,
we've taken some time. We've done some writing.
Everybody looks eager and ready to go.
Corbett is jumping up and down. Corbin would you would you?
You like Mayhew you want to go first?
He made me. See it me, me me.
Yes, yes ways. I mean he's so excited Professor
all right, this time, I'll let you go first.
Okay, are just this time. All right, here we go.
So I call this one fairy Angel. Okay, wait wait, how do you
spell fairy ferr? Why ah.
Okay. Very good.
An angel is a h n j e LL e. E.
I don't think that's how you spell.
It's very weird way to spell angel, mr.
Curtis you have no right to criticize how things are
spilled. I'm so sorry.
I skipped grammar class last week and for some reason, they
cover the word angel, I missed it.
Here we go, again, krammer class, and here we go.
Transport me across the world. I open up to you, become
unfurled, as you read my mind. The thoughts inside my love for
you. I cannot hide enchant me,
darling with your sweet cries lying on your shell hearing
lullabies a voice. So pure and intelligence.
Hi, you know, me more than any in my life, a heart Sargento,
temper. So mild searching For fellow kin
in the wild. But I'll always find you
wherever you are my Seafarer. Angel, I'll never be far.
Wow. It's a it's a wow.
I can I can send professors have a tear actually no Corbin.
You just you you started spitting a lot and those last
couple lines and it just I think you got me with a good one,
right? Hi I'm sorry.
All right sorry that awake or be sorry.
Yeah I want to hear you not not feel your words Corbin right
sorry but excellent job. Thank you know, I'm pretty sure
but Porsha Porsha are Then Porygon did add the in some, you
know, calming relaxing, music behind that.
So it's, I'm sure it was a very good experience for for our
listeners are students at home. Yes.
All right, mr. Curtis it is, your turn.
All right. Are you ready?
Everybody ready? I guess Professor.
Are you ready? Yeah, I'm sure.
Yes. I'm ready to go.
Sorry, I was just I'm just gonna think I was just stealing myself
to prepare for this terrible Haiku.
That's coming. Okay, good just gonna quick, oh
my God, he does this every time. Okay maybe you know one of our
first reviews we got on flap, a podcast was complaining about
how we slurp into the microphone, you know, that
you're the, you're the cause of that.
And Pretty sure that that was referring to a very specific
instance, in the Venus or lesson where we do.
It was like one of our first lesson pretty loud.
He didn't like it so I can't fault them.
Anyways, that person's never coming back.
Yeah, there they are. Definitely not listening to
this. Here we go.
Are you ready? Yes.
All right, yes. All right.
Ode to up Ross, always willing to carry you on its back.
A gentle soul. Who always?
Has your back up. Wait, did you run back with
back? It doesn't like to fight only
step back. Okay.
You're just, yeah, their numbers have dwindled, despite my
efforts to bring them back. Did you capable of understanding
your human speech while riding on their back?
Their enchanting songs Song will have you lying on your back
because a coming back. I feel like that would be better
if I had if I caught a Lapras, I would never give it back.
Thank you, mr. Curtis is a hack, you know, I
will say, you know what, I will say that you did, you know, do
the carnal like insult or crime? I guess what's that rhyming?
The same word with, with itself over and over and over again,
higher time, but a, but I will say, though, you know, doing it
once, it's just like, you messed up doing it three times.
Is like you know, okay, now you're on to something now but
doing it, the only only doing it only rhyming back with back for
the entire poem. Honestly, you know, she's a
little bit more skill and I think it was very interesting.
So what now coming? Thank you Professor.
I live all the hair cell if you could play some clown music
behind mr. Curtis has a poem.
That would be great. I think that would fit perfectly
don't do that. Perfectly with mr.
Curtis has the vibe that he was giving up.
Excellent poems, both of you. Yeah, you know, I love poem.
They just kind of relaxing. I feel like it is.
I like it. It's very chill.
And I wish we had it every week. Well now, unfortunately.
So, you know, the best way to learn is in a pressure cooker,
right? I feel like, that's the best way
to end up to get things done. So, I got to put the pressure on
you, sometimes I prefer an air fryer, but, yeah, I feel it.
Specifically said that I didn't do that today though.
Is it Curtis? I mean, but I ever any time ever
in the room with you I feel it. The perfect.
The pressure of being haven't to be in your princess.
My overwhelming or a mmm. I get it all right, but that's
gonna do it for our lesson on lap presses.
Anybody know who we're talking about next week, mr.
Curtis do you know, I mean it there's only Only one, it could
be. It's not a situation up.
It is the city of Corbin answered that one for me.
Thank you Corbin sure. No problem, who are we learning
about those? Anybody know, anybody know?
Oh, oh Evie good try good, try my disappointment knows, no,
bounds. We're learning actually know
what, you know what? I'm not.
It's there's no way you could know it's not like they're
related to Lapras in it. And in any Method.
We are learning about ditto. Oh hey nice.
Okay. The cool blob Pokémon as some
no, I'm sorry. So what's called it's not.
It's not actually a pink blob Pokemon.
