Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob and thank you so much for attending
my lecture on Pokemon biology. Joining me here in the
classroom. Today of course is my wonderful
teaching assistant, mr. Curtis, how are you today?
Mr. Curtis I know what he's doing is he is running into the
classroom, it on, slow motion, as if he was, you know, you
know, like finishing a race and first place.
Oh, I thought he was trying to impersonate a train.
Yeah, it sounds a little bit like a train.
That's right. That's, that's the crowds
cheering as, as, as we're here in class and class gets started
IT Crowd. It's the number one class of the
season, and the number one professor of the world, know how
to break. It is hard.
There's three of us here. There's three of us around,
there's definitely. No crowd of us here, but you
know, if you're okay, hold on, let me, let me go ahead.
Let me go ahead and we should sit down.
Let me take attendance real quick.
So, when I say your name, everybody here in the classroom,
please sure he say here, please stay here, Corbin here.
Okay, and that's it, everybody's very good.
And then all the crowds of a, of your adoring.
Hands Professor. Yeah, but here is too many to
name. There's to listen to them all
Shit Raven, listening, those are those are not crowds that have
Curtis is doing great Foley. But those are not crowds of
people. I mean me and whose vicariously
channeling the energy of the thousands of you're slobbering
fans. Professor slobbering well what
the fuck slavi they might have rabies.
They're just Salve Ting for your for your wisdom.
Well then don't get to close them.
Um okay well you know what? Speaking of Wisdom, I think it's
time that you know we do what we came here to do, which is, you
know talk about Pokemon biology and specifically.
Today I'm just gonna go ahead and say it, we're learning about
Dugtrio ah, which is the quote on quote evolved form of Diglett
and definitely not just three diglettz all squished.
Oh, heavy heavy, heavy quotes there because I will tell you
something as task last week, I have taken the liberty of, well,
taking the Liberty means you did without asking I I took it upon
myself. What?
No that's doesn't make sense. I was tasked that better as has.
Charred I was I was task / commanded to write a summary or
essay on Dugtrio and, you know, curb and your command over the
English language for the past. Couple of seconds is really made
me excited for this. This essay look, it's not an
essay on English literature, okay?
It's an essay on Dugtrio. Let me tell you, I can confirm,
it's not really an evolution. It's just a Of that big, what's
thrown together a bunch of diglettz time together.
Although, I think we will notice in the Pokedex entries, there's
some confusion or or different things.
About, you know what, a Diglett Dugtrio actually isn't how its
formed because I can think of, at least two different, you
know, origins of a Dugtrio. Yeah, that no fire.
But hey, why don't? We go ahead and take a look at
the do trio itself. And our remember, I remember
last time you guys Remember you see this giant hole in the
floor? Yes that's a nice clean that.
I we did not fix it up because I mean I knew that we're going to
have a dog Trio this time. So why fix two holes when I can
just fix one? Yep.
Anyway, so here here is Dugtrio, why don't see anything you have
to do. You have to yell it louder?
It's a big hole. It could be pretty far.
I may not be able to hear you. You have a whistle or something?
Well, I threw a Pokeball out, you know, like I fucking like,
Normally do. All right, watch your language.
So here I am. So so sorry.
This is a classroom with students and I was expecting it.
I was expecting it to just come out of the door.
Okay. Okay you know what?
You know what? You know what?
You know, you're right here. Let's take it back.
I'll I won't throw a Pokeball instead instead I will stand
upon my desk and some ended up Trio.
And if I'm calling forth a being from the depth because I'm not
what I figured you would do. Let's go.
Alright, rise forth to me Dugtrio and All of your great
ground-types Splendor. I do you try to aim for down
shape? I feel it.
Some Trio.
Please aim for that. There's already a hole there but
your there's already a hole there.
You didn't need to do that. Alright, let's let's talk about
do trio. Does anybody know, like tell me
that if you can? The difference between a Dugtrio
and a dick. I sure can there's three
dickless now instead of one, and that's it.
And, and we should also mention that the trio is, there's much
more of that do tree out of the ground, then there is the fourth
e, dig little bit. Yeah, yeah.
I believe, I believe it was only eight inches of the of the
Diglett were above ground, in this case.
I do trio there, Max height ends up, being two feet, Feet 4
inches long. How much bigger?
He's one, boys. Yes, and boy must be wider.
They're definitely wider to a lot thicker.
Oh girthier their girthier, boys.
So I guess, I guess it's more than just that three Diglett.
They're just three big diglettz. There are three, big diglettz,
three big diglettz. Oh, this is, this is actually an
interesting if you look at what the doctor is doing now.
Do you guys see it bobbing up and down?
Yep, it keeps bobbing constantly.
It kind of looks a little push pop or something Corbin.
Can you do? Would you happen to know what it
is? Why it's doing that.
I sorry I'm coming over sickness Professor.
Yes. I do not have come to class if
you're sick but that's okay. I don't need a mask or anything.
I think mr. Curtis is said that before that
he's impervious to any illness. I don't know what that means.
But any human any illness that affects humans as?
Yeah. Like I've been tested before we
got into the room. I coughed on him three.
At times and he just was, like, yeah, keep it coming.
I won't feel a thing so we'll test that.
See if you get sick. Are you wouldn't feel anything
immediately? If you were affected by normal
human? Listen.
Listen, you're not that type of doctor or a doctor at also shut
up. Smartass pinned down.
He stopped calling me names as well.
I explain what's going on, so, don't rhubarb's up and down
constantly in order to loosen up the soil.
So it makes it easier to dig around in Is exactly correct.
And I'm so glad that you knew that if I am now feeling a
little bit better about this essay that's coming up.
Oh yeah. So, excellent job.
I'm gonna go ahead and put Dugtrio back.
There's a Pokeball so it doesn't.
All right. Bye.
Click here in the in the classroom that wouldn't be
great. That was terrible.
The professor's already mad as much as it as much as he is or
excuse me. Not the rest of the principles
mad as much as he is because of the horrible shape of our
foundation. At this point.
We've had so many Pokémon digging through the foundation
for the sake of this class that I've had to spend quite a few
weekends here, reassuring up the foundation's, let me give you
that. Anyways, you come, you come down
here every weekend anyway. Yeah, nobody asked you to do
that. I'd buy you, but, hey, glad you
That up because I don't think, I don't think earthquake would
want it. When end very well in this
classroom, that's not something that you could just.
Oh it's a hole or a window broken.
Like that's like oh we have to find a new classroom.
Yeah, that's bad. That's bad news.
Can you imagine how loud obnoxious?
It would be for for the students listening at home to hear that
horrible? A horrible earthquake.
Oh my God, I mean, wouldn't affect them at all.
We would have to move to mean locations, it would affect their
ears and they're listening pleasure which, you know, let's
be honest is Paramount. Here, of course, yes, but a very
close second is is reading the Pokedex entry.
This is also that I would say, the second, most important parts
of these lessons. So why don't I just start?
Go ahead and I start reading these Pokedex entries.
I think you should do that. Yeah, okay, alright.
I think I'm going to start in the Kanto region.
I think it's a wonderful place to begin.
First one here says a team of Diglett triplets.
It triggers, huge earthquakes. Burying burrowing 60 miles
underground. So you see ya miles.
Deep underground, it says, 60 miles underground, I would
imagine that. It means straight down.
Yeah. So I, you know, was looking into
it a little bit in. Yes, can confirm, it goes about
60 miles. Underneath the Earth, like
straight down. Oh, okay.
All right. How can you can?
What are your sources? Here Corbin knowledge and
reading. All right, well, don't don't
listen to a thing. This man says, Professor the no,
I'm not a man. I am a boy.
Well, you better start acting like I'm a beautiful bouncing
baby boy. If you want to if you want to
pass this you'd only you gotta be a man if you want to pass
this class or or will, man. I don't want to I don't want
separate mansion. That's what you do.
Have to be a man to pass this. You can be a kid.
Give me a kiss. Well I mean you come in a kid
but when you leave you're a man, you're married woman.
The professor makes you an adult?
That's something I don't know. I don't like how he said it.
I did Professor, the professor is made me an adult many times.
Okay, take please move on. I've taken this class.
This is mostly about the professor making you a man.
Please hate. This next one, here says, a team
of triplets that can burrow over 60 miles per hour.
Due to list. It likes the number 60.
I'll tell ya, I mean, makes makes the math easy, 60 miles
deep 60 miles per hour. Exactly.
Due to this, some people It's an earthquake.
I mean, is it not an earthquake? Yeah that was it kind of hurts
the clinking, doesn't matter if the Diglett started it or the
doctrine as it on my research. I found that kind of weird
because like one second it says that it causes earthquakes and
then it says people think it causes earthquakes.
I'm like so which is it does it call them or not?
And also we've said twice now that this is a, this is a team
of Diglett triplets, right? Triplets, yes.
When you think of a triplet, you think?
No, you know, 33, you know, people born at the same time,
right coming from the same embryo, I don't know.
I'm not a, I don't, I don't go into it Daddy, but like right
now so that works, but that's three separate individual
things, right? Yeah, that were just so that's
what you would expect though. Treated me, it's three separate
diglettz that were to throw peanuts.
Yes, what kind of team? Yeah, there are three and we
will more will be revealed especially when I do my essay
by. All right, there, there are
three identical diglettz. Supposedly supposedly.
Supposedly some people don't think so.
Yeah, but we'll talk about this people as the last one from the
Kanto region, says, Diglett triplets, that always travel
together. No need to borrow more than 60
miles underground and Trigger or Quakes just as Quakes, it
doesn't put the Earth from it assumes that you know.
That's an earthquake. Yeah, not a sky-quake or a water
Quake. Yeah.
Or we re I can think of another the wind, a wind Quake.
That's what Mr. Curry gets shaken.
Yeah, that's what mr. Curtis has me farts, when I
love, I love me some good fart humor.
It's really the best comedy out there.
I know Deborah tell you. I was 10.
That's my favorite to highest. It's the highest form of of
humor fart jokes. It doesn't get any better.
Doesn't it? Can't flat flatulent.
Lee parts are always funny every single time.
Okay, I'm glad. I'm glad we love, we all agree
on this on this topic. It's not why we're here.
It's not what we're supposed to be talking about, but it's good
that we did. All right, let's move on to the
Johto region. Wow, that was a long time.
Talking about, can't I let me tell ya?
Well, I mean, it's the best reason.
Well, north of the other regions a lot quicker.
It's three heads. Bob, separately up and down to
loosen the soil nearby and making it easy, making it easier
for it to burrow. Yeah.
Yeah, as a hard sentence to say, so yeah we've already mentioned
that so we can move on extremely powerful.
They can dig through. Even the hardest ground to a
depth of over 60 miles. Whoa okay 60 miles by the way is
pretty crazy deep underground like that.
So that's very far as far that's for man that's like from Pallet
Town to like saffron. I think yeah something like that
roughly that's a good. That's a good 60 miles outside
maybe closer to 50 that's a good 60 miles, but that's crazy.
It's crazy to think about that. Do trio is that far underground,
but it could travel that far straight down.
Like that's like into the mantle of the earth, is it?
Yeah, I think so. How deep is the T?
I think I think the crust of the earth is 30 miles.
I could be 10 that. Yeah, hold on, hold on, hold on.
No, I will confirm you. Do your job.
All right, here, teach. You're right.
Ray. I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry. I just when I'm presented with a
burning question. I haha, I did it.
I looked it up on my Rotom laptop, the crust of the
outermost layer of the planet, the cooled and hardened part of
the earth that ranges in depth approximately from about 32 44
miles. So it can do you always through
the Gloom of the earth. That's a long reach.
So wait, so okay, so then what comes after that?
What comes after the mantle The mantle.
Okay. So it's old neck, it's safely
within the mantle of the earth. Yeah.
And here's another source that says the crust thickness
averages at about 18. What if it's a stuffed crust,
but it's only through. Okay, so it's only shut up, but
it's only like, it's only like three miles underneath the
oceans, some of the deeper parts of the planet, but yeah.
Now on average, it's about 18 miles, these fuckers can dig 60.
So yeah, they can go into the mantle of the earth.
That's wild. No problem either.
It's like At a constant speed of 60 miles per hour.
No, sweat down there in one hour.
No, problem. No problem.
Okay, I said we do this next part quicker, but we're very not
very, very much not doing it quicker though.
Okay. The next one here says these
Diglett triplets dig over 60 miles below sea level.
No one knows what it's like underground.
Now this is it's this is a very oddly worried sentence.
I think what it's saying is no one knows what does Trio is like
underground and not that no one knows what it's like to being
underground. I'm pretty sure we have caves
and people go spelunking all the time.
So yeah, I mean, maybe we don't know what it's like, maybe 60
miles underground. Maybe not.
Maybe not, but we just follow the holes like by the dog trios,
I guess. Yeah.
All right, that does that does it the Johto region?
Let's move on, to the Hoenn region.
Okay, this is this is the interesting part.
All right. It says, Dugtrio are actually
triplets. That emerged from one body,
there it is. Okay, okay, so, what does this
mean? What does this mean it?
Okay. So, raise your hands, please,
sir. How you could hear?
Here's my hand raised. Yeah, Corbin these.
Go ahead. Answer that, but I was doing my
essay and I was looking up. I was doing my research about
this. I was like, wait a minute.
So then how does the evolution process work?
Because a Dugtrio doesn't technically evolve, it's just is
it just three diglettz coming together?
Because that's how it sounded. But now this is confirmation.
It's Evolution process. It doesn't, just get bigger or
grow different parts, like other Pokemon do it.
Splits into two more identical. So this is the first case it may
be. The only case that we know of so
far released in this class where a Pokemon literally is cloning
itself during Evolution. That, that is one.
That is the one that finition. But however, it says triplets
that, sorry, I get so worked up about this, okay.
It's all right, saying it's angering.
I know it says, Are actually triplets that emerged from one
body, right. As if they are being birth is
kind of the way I read it. Yeah.
But that would be children though.
It says triplets. That means like a soda tentacle
siblings. Not yeah, burning it.
So so Doug. So Diglett buds.
That's how it reproduce it buds like a plan.
Well no, no that's how it evolved 's it.
Yeah, Dugtrio still like every other Pokemon out the out.
Air that can breathe. I can have babies lays eggs.
They all lay eggs every single one.
Yes, that's right. So what happened?
It's quite a, it's not, it's not reproducing by budding.
It's still, it's still laying eggs.
It just a when it involves according.
According to Professor Birch over in the Hoenn region, it
just magically it just it just as Corbin said, clones itself it
clones to new diglettz that are Connected not connected
physically but like connect but that's what nautical power of
tier team. That's not its children.
If it reproduces, it has an egg that's its babies during the
evolution process and it just morphs and no more it.
Clones Corbin. I agree with you.
And that's, that's what I believe is the case.
But it just the way that this is written, right?
And knowing what, you know about triplets, right?
When it says, triplets that emerged from one body, it sounds
as though they're being birth. First first, I don't know you to
be just right? Like it glows like how?
Well during how else did triplets come about?
Yeah, they all emerged from one body.
Well, yeah, I mean triplets and humans are usually one embryo
that splits three ways in this. It's like, that's not like, it's
not like it's it's being. Let's all three are being
birthed at the same time. It's a Diglett that literally
just forms to extra that are identical.
That's it. It's a bird.
Them, it's just true, pop it out but it says triplets triplets
that emerged from one body. So you have one body and then
out of that body comes three different bow.
Your wording, it wrong. No, no trip.
That's emerged from one body. Yeah, it's saying that it's
forming two identical. Though is making the thing that
yeah saying that no you're wrong.
It's saying it's a triplet. It's a triplet that are for that
come from One by hon. I'm going to use the warm when
you form two more identical diglettz from one, then it
becomes a triplet. Because now there's three.
So that's still makes sense grammatically I see why it's
confusing but yeah, all right. So, I don't know.
I don't know if you guys have your Pokedex has out.
I mean, you're supposed, you're supposed to be reading along but
look, read them along. I posed, I put it into the, into
the classroom, into the classroom chat board here.
All right, read that to me and tell me that it doesn't sound.
Does it look like it's saying three things came from one body,
therefore, having in total four bodies that it's under the trees
are actually triplets verse from one body as a result.
Each triplet thinks exactly like the other.
We haven't read that far yet, mr.
Curtis well, hold on. Hold on, each triplet thinks
like the other two triplets. Okay, there are three triplets.
So that's a three-chip list is, I mean, there's nine Doug.
Do triplet is what? You call each member of the
triplet. That is true.
Okay, so that's the equivalent
of me saying this let's say I could clone myself into more
identical, Corbin's pop out. That's the equivalent of me
saying Corbin is actually triplets that emerged from one
body. If they're both identical to me
than they are, then we're all triplets.
That's what that saying. It's three from one body me and
those two others. I know it's worded, really
weirdly I see why your wife as long as you as long as you see,
I agree that the real really worded.
I agree with you that the real meaning is that it's one and
then it like clones itself twice and has two clones that.
Come in. Yes!
Wait I thought there were nine of them know not nine of them.
No, oh my god. Do I get, I get why it's
confusing? It sounds like it's one,
birthing three or like producing three.
It's not yet one producing to, but that producing two forms a
triplet with the original one. Being the third, boom.
Got it, don't say, don't say boom, like you fix this
sentence, it's still messed up completely.
I think I should teach. Well, I'm just trying to do what
a good professor doesn't and have my students, you know,
think critically when they read. Even though this is in the
Pokédex, you know, we can still think critically and think about
what it's saying because, hey, sometimes and we may read later
on sometimes. Lex doesn't know everything.
Alright. It doesn't know everything.
It's, I mean, everything it does know his backs, don't know
everything. Okay, okay, let's let's keep
going so I'm going to I haven't even finished the century yet.
God Dugtrio are actually triplets that emerged from one
body. What's a result?
As a result, each triplet thinks exactly like the other two
triplets. They work cooperatively to
burrow endlessly? Okay, hmm.
So this Pokemon is the mole Pokemon, just like deal it is,
but I mean, let's be honest. It should be the power of
teamwork Pokemon because, right? That's what drives this Pokemon,
they work together. So, wait, so does it if you, if
you are allowed to carry six Pokémon six pokeballs with you
at a time. Yeah.
Does it still count as one? Yes, this won't be able to fit
them all because there's nine of them know there's three.
All right, continue reading the alright the last one here from
the Hoenn region says in battle, it digs to the ground and
Strikes the unsuspecting Info from an unexpected Direction.
So not only is the folk Trio. Now only is the felt
unsuspecting but it's also from an unexpected Direction with an
unexpected part of Dugtrio. I mean but like what do they
mean unexpected Direction they has to be from the ground right?
That's what you know. You might think that I don't
really post is hiding some wings under that Earth.
It's hardly something sort of the dirt.
Maybe we've never seen nobody. Knows what it looks like
underground Trio, use dig, and then fly and scratch.
It could a scratch, so it has hands.
Yep. All right, moving on to the
center region. There's only one here, so I'll
be quick. It's three heads move,
alternately driving through tough soil, to depths of over 60
miles. Okay?
Yeah, okay. Okay, you know that impress,
well, I just, it's just, I mean, it's kind of describes here.
How Diglett Dugtrio digs Right. Yeah.
Pushing with the Ted's. So using the previous three
heads, alternate, alternate Lee. It just punches.
It's Biscuits keeps head-butting the Earth.
Yeah. That's, he is very, very true.
Alright. That does it for the center
region. Let's move on.
You know of again, nothing Kalos.
I mean, come on guys, get it together.
Get it together, guys. Come on down on a damn thing for
me, there them Lola. On the other hand, a little very
much. Does they say this set of
triplets moves cooperatively? It's the Power of teamwork that
enables this Pokemon to dig to a depth of 60 miles, okay?
Again power power of teamwork Power of Love Power of teamwork
friendship all the apps. Yep.
Sure. Despite the closeness between
this Pokemon and farmers and other people.
Okay. Okay.
No one has ever seen the parts of it concealed underground.
Yeah. I mean, that's that's same
thing. We knew about the Diglett to.
Yeah. But like why?
I like why why don't we know it looks like underground privacy.
Okay, does the lady scene? We just picked it.
Respect the dog tree as we're spending, just saying, as a
scientist. We can definitely figure out a
way to see what's underneath the ground of a Dugtrio, what do
trio hides, right? Because like, I just feel like
I'm just saying, I don't want to get, I don't get morbid here.
But like, what's stopping us from?
Dissecting a dead dog Trio. I mean that's true.
That's a good point. We could, we could just take up
another Trio and like we know how much their Trio way is.
You know, how much Diglett ways? How would we know that how can
we possibly know how much it weighs without knowing what it
is? You're into an educated?
Guess based on how big his head is.
Okay. So we don't actually know how
much it weighs we're just saying.
Yeah. Yeah yeah.
Based on the density of its head.
Yep. How quickly it moves.
There's we can we can determine there's a little squiggly thing.
Next if a number if If it's a trio, it has a density of this
much, and it leaves the station at 60 miles per hour.
Yes, how much does it weigh? Yes, exactly.
Thank you. Okay.
Well, the three of them, normally, get along the three
diglettz that make up the don't. Yes, yes, yes.
Well, the three of them normally get along sponge splendidly on
rare occasions. A huge fight will break out over
which head gets to eat first. Whoo, fun fun.
That's like me at Thanksgiving. Now when you say which head you
mean which Diglett right, right they're not.
It's not like they're all. I mean hey Curtis they could all
be conjoined at the bottom because again we don't know
that's not don't know what they look like saying.
Yeah. All nine, if I'm could be
conjoined. Yes, they could all three.
Three that's only three, not nine.
He tried to sneak it past me. I'm glad you were paying
attention. They're Corbin.
That's why I'm here. That's why, that's why I keep
you around. Sorry.
Okay, last one. Oh wait sorry there's two more
here. Do trios heads are sleek and
smooth and incredibly hard. It can dig through any soil with
its head butts. Yeah.
It's head-butting through the ground.
That seems like a bad way to do it, but I mean I can't I can't
take it 60 miles per hour so what do I know?
Yeah, you can't work on that the last one.
From alveolar region says, a team of triplets that can burrow
to a depth of 60 miles. It's reported that this Triggers
an earthquake or or hey, or as we said in here in the Kanto
region, we think it's an earthquake, something big, we
don't know. Think it may be an earthquake,
all right? Gal are the galleries, just
repeats what we already have. So we don't need to read that.
So let me go ahead and read some stuff unique Pokedex entries.
This is this first one here is probably My favorite pokedex
entry ever know. Yeah, it's very very good comes
to us from ashes Pokédex and we all know.
That's just Smokin X. Sometimes likes to mess around
with him a little bit. Um, so this one's get ready.
This one says the trio, the evolved form of Diglett, no
specific information available. Oh okay, we don't know a damn
thing about Dugtrio. Okay, I mean that's fair sure.
Yes. Oh, so great work.
I don't know, I don't know why. Ash got a pokedex that wasn't
loaded with any information on Dugtrio besides.
That, it was in fact, the evolved form of Diglett.
Wow. That's that's pretty pathetic
for being honest. Yeah.
All right. Six one's a little bit, more
insightful. Also, again, it comes to us from
ashes Pokedex. I think this might be a
different products because it seems to know a bit more.
It says Dugtrio formed. However, I think it's wrong.
It says, formed when three Diglett combine, this Pokemon is
able to Tunnel deep beneath the earth's surface that part's
fine. The first part though.
Formed when three Diglett combined, I don't we in the
Hoenn region they say kind of like the complete opposite of
that. It says that it's one Diglett
that clones itself and the two other diglettz to make I don't
recall saying other ones are now combined.
So yeah. Doesn't it really?
It doesn't make any sense. All right.
Only there's one more here about the trio.
One more unique pokedex entry. It says, Dugtrio the mole
Pokemon a ground type and the evolved form of Diglett.
These three make an excellent team.
When do trial moves through the soil, the soil becomes extremely
aerated, which is excellent for farming.
It has been reported to be quite useful for agriculture.
Cool. Just like think late.
Yeah. So that does it for the Kanto
nian Dugtrio. But I'm sorry, the kid Tony in.
Are you saying there's another time?
Well did you? Yes.
I mean there is there isn't a lowland Diglett so I think it
would stand to reason that there is in fact and a lowland of
Trio. Yeah, let me let me go ahead and
read those entries. Now, first time to call
Professor Paul, no, we're not going.
We can't call Professor Palm every time there's a there's a
Variant. All right, he doesn't have the
time nor of the well he is very busy.
Busy early investor will ever be all right so the first one is
come to us appropriately from the lowland region.
The first one here says it's shining gold hair provides it
with protection, it's reputed that keeping weight.
It's your reputed, it word. It's II think that the word
would be reported. Biggest must be imported.
It's reputed that At keeping any of its Fallen hairs will bring
bad luck. Oh yeah, bad luck.
Yeah. So don't don't grab its hair
because it fella it's somehow fell out of its head.
I guess even though I guess I didn't really show in a lowland
Dugtrio but it's it looks exactly the same as as a Cantone
Ian dog Trio except it's a little bit more tan and it has
like like really long blond hair that kind of looks like a
helmet. Mmm.
Yeah. Or whiskers, I would not say
whiskers, but I guess, you know. Okay, I may be wrong.
These Pokemon are cherished, cherished, and the illallah
region where they are thought to be feminine deities of the land
incarnate. So the, you know, they love
their deity's over in the Lola region.
Now, I don't know what about do trio.
Makes it feminine but I Guess two people.
The all our region. I don't know like I guess the
hairs. Make it look feminine.
I don't know. No.
I guess so. I don't know.
Yeah I guess it does have nice long pretty hair.
You know what? I'll give it to you all.
Oh Le, but that's like saying that men can't have nice long,
beautiful golden hair. Well, they can't have you ever
seen a dude with nice, long, beautiful, golden hair.
I mean, huh, huh? You don't know what you yeah.
Mr. Curtis you're You bald mr. Curtis.
Hey, you have a little sprigs of hair but you are mostly
Baldwin's. I've once I once I once had long
shiny how can you please do that?
And I and I lost it. I guess too much exposure.
Lost it in our bed. Unfortunately not sorry.
You had to give all of his hair away.
What a shame. You lost the bet.
Alright next one here says it's metallic whiskers and it does
say whiskers here told you. It's metallic.
Whiskers are heavy so it's not very fast but it has the power
to dig through bedrock now is bedrock lower than the mantle.
Or is that like in the mantle? Listen to me I'm not a
geologist. Okay, Bedrock is in the crust.
I would think. Well then Matt doesn't make it
special because yeah, Dugtrio can do that.
Yeah, exactly. Get your shit together.
Nobody. You just so you're just what?
Just a slow Dugtrio a lowland do trio.
You're slow. That's rude.
What's more powerful? It's got steel now, stronger
well, but it nothing here. Proves to me that it's more
powerful. It just says that it has the
power to dig through bedrock which, but it's showed earlier.
All right, whatever. All right?
It's shining gold whiskers are Advanced sensors that can detect
vibrations from sounds several miles away.
Very similar to the alone, Diglett?
Yeah, it's a present, okay, they were referred to as triplets but
they are not identical. Oil.
The metallic elements and their bodies differ slightly the proof
shows and their whiskers. So this is interesting the
actual chemical makeup of these. 3D Dugtrio.
These are sieglinde lightly different is it slightly
different? So the can't Tony inversion is
figured to be triplets but because the metallic makeup
inside of its body, people think they aren't triplets in a little
while so make it make sense. I mean, they're literally Each
other. So I don't know how that would
even happen, I don't know either.
I mean, even identical twins can have differences, 40.
But they're not, they're clones. That's what they said in the
homeowner, he's in there but they won't be the one thing.
You can't fully clone is a metallic makeup inside your
body. I don't know.
All right, let's move on to the the gallery tonight.
Sip of epigenetics. Yes, is it?
I don't know. See, I never know when when mr.
Kurtz is saying a word that II, don't know.
Or he's just saying a word that I dunno incorrectly.
I don't know who it's always a toss-up with Curtis.
Yeah. Alright the the gallery region
says that the alone do trio, it says that they're beautiful
metallic whiskers. I can't his whiskers.
It's not they're not whisker told you.
I told you I was confused too. It looks like hair to me, but
it's saying this curse and create a sort of protective
helmet on their heads and they also function as highly precise.
There's and the last one says the three of them get along very
well through there, for me. Formidable team work, they
defeat powerful opponents. Yes.
All right. By head-butting, I assume.
I mean that is their main form and also creating giant
earthquakes. There is one one unique pokedex
entry here. It comes to us from a Rotom
Pokedex, doesn't say who it belongs to.
It says Dugtrio a Lola form. The The mole Pokemon a ground
and Steel type. They were revered in a Lola as
The Reincarnation of a planet guardian and its siblings it's
golden hair provides protection. Siblings now.
Okay, not just clothes and also and also Planet Guardian instead
of what they say and I'll all the look feminine deity, is the
land and by what my Planet guarded by something that's not
going to be a dumpy looking funky-looking hairdo.
Turd. Whoa, Pokemon.
Hey, hey, hey, beautiful. Harry talking about so shiny and
golden. I do what?
They just look a little silly. You know, like an 80s hair band,
if you will, they do. Kyle look a little silly.
It's like he put. It's like you put, you know?
Like like a wig on a corn dog. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna piece of
poop or something. I guess I wouldn't have gone
that way. But yeah, that does it for all
the Pokedex entries. So here I would only read it
once or Unaccredited article. But instead, I'm going to
attend, going to let my student here Corbin.
Go ahead and take the reins and read me an essay that he has for
us. Well, guess what?
This is sourced and it's credited by your boy.
So no need to worry about fact-checking because it's all
taken all. I'm taking notes from right?
Well I expect a full annotated bibliography.
Are we ready? Then we rock.
Okay, here we go. Um I'm always ready.
Here's my ASMR, any Dugtrio kind of sucks.
I'm just kidding, that's not it. Um, dog Trio is essentially
three diglettz just kind of hanging out together.
They're not fused together. It's not a three-headed fully
evolved Pokemon. It's a triplet of diglettz
resulting from a single, Diglett splitting into two more
identical copies during Evolution.
These three digits are strong enough to trigger earthquakes.
While burrowing underneath the ground traveling at 60 miles per
hour. Also Dugtrio is capable of
traveling underground to a depth of over 60 miles, the triplet
Shaped heads are constantly moving in order to loosen up the
soil, which makes digging easier.
While these three Diglett heads, mostly cooperate, when it's
feeding time, they will occasionally fight over who gets
to eat first and like Diglett no one has ever seen a dog trios
body since it's again, it's a literally just three Diglett
bodies hanging out together like, Diglett since it's again
just three of them Dugtrio has. An allele invariant the alone
variant looks similar to the camp.
Tony induct true except it ain't bald.
It has glossy shining gold hair /.
Whiskers that provide Extra Protection on its heads and act
as sensors for vibrations that are detected miles away
underground. These hairs are held in such
high esteem that many a no Lola. Believe Dugtrio to be feminine
deities of the land incarnate in that.
If any of a hair is fall from its heads, bad luck will come.
It's also worth noting that the alone variant is said not to
actually be identical triplets but they're metallic whiskers.
Differ slightly from each head, making them a bit different from
one another and like Diglett since again it's just three of
them do true likes to live in caves.
Tunnels beneath the earth's surface and that's a that's my
essay, okay? All right.
Very, very well thought out. You had a lot of really good
information there and I think now, let me ask you Corbin, yes.
You think that somebody could get a full and a working
understanding of a Dugtrio just by reading your essay here.
I think anybody would get an understanding of Doug Judy.
My reading that I think any mr. Curtis Miss occurs, what do you
think? I think, I think it was pretty
good. I wasn't sure about the whole
bad luck thing. I just think I remember you
saying, if somebody keeps a whisker that has fallen off
their head, it's bad luck. Not just, not just that.
If it falls off, it's bad luck. What are the sources?
I read said if it falls off too, bad luck.
Well, it does say here in the Olin entry, that is reputed that
keeping any of its small and hairs will bring bring bad luck.
So it's the act of keeping it. Okay.
Well, you know what? As bad luck potato potahto You
know? Yeah.
You know, I figured that was close enough.
He got the whole like, you know, whisker falling off things.
I was, I was happy to take that. Yes.
Yeah, I think it's very good job and I think you, you decided to
go with the route of believing that it's one Diglett that then
through Evolution clones itself, into two more diglettz,
therefore forming a Dugtrio, a trio of piglets.
And you also decided to say that they are three separate beings
and that, you know, for a fact they They are not conjoined
underneath the ground. That's how it sounds.
I mean, that's to me. That's what it sounds.
That sounds like a lot of certainty.
If I'm a side B. We have absolutely no idea what
can I say, but they live a certain guy.
I know it. I mean, I'm kind of nitpicking
here but I think I think all in all this is a very excellent
essay. They coordinated a very, very
good job and I think I'm going to give you 15 points for, you
know, Professor Jacobs classroom.
All right house, I'll take it. No, I'll take it.
Thank you. Yeah, it's really start writing
these down somewhere so I can know probably shut the school
exam. I think I just know that that
Curtis is just just barely scraping by in the lead.
I've been riding this ride right now Point settlement.
I'm just I'm just shy of 20 thousand now.
I think is night. Yes, 19.
I think you give yourself 20,000 now.
I think adding the 15 that I just gave korben korben is at
about 15 so I do. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
It's based in there when he's on, he's on the board.
Getting, that's what's important?
All right. Hey, who's ready for a pop quiz
me? Oh, I'm so excited.
I'm ready. All right, go ahead.
Go ahead and put away. Your Pokedex has go put away.
Your notes is a closed note test.
Put them away. Take out your pens and pencils
and rulers and and calculators and anything that you have that.
You think you might need. Yes.
And just let me know when you guys are ready.
Now, I'll start laying it out for you.
I am ready for you. All right.
Iraq was her role. All right, let's get started.
Question number one. How does Dugtrio dig through the
ground? All right, all of the answers
are in. Let me read Corbin's first.
Corbin says it digs, by pushing its heads, bobbing them up and
down to loosen the soil and head, but the Earth and a mr.
Curtis responded with Dugtrio digs by bobbing its heads up.
And Down separately to loosen the soil, making it easier to
dig along c. So interesting.
I was the answer that I was looking for was teamwork.
Oh, come on. So you're both it is Teamwork.
Makes the Dream Work If you go. So yes.
Yes, it's so courtesy mr. Curtis your answer was a little
bit, a little bit sparse. That it does use its Bob, its
head up and down to loosen the soil to make it easier to get
along, but that's not necessarily how it digs.
It does it. Half off this Curtis, I'm very
sorry. Let's bump butts is half off mr.
Curtis. I mean, if the professor said,
teamwork was Keith and I guess that's a zero for both very
sorry. The real answer that I was
looking for was head-butting head-butting the ground and I
believe Corbin's answer kind of. Yeah, he does literally say head
but the Earth so I'm getting. I'm Corbin.
You get full points Curtis Oh, how very sorry you are getting
half points for very sorry. Do I hate to do it?
But you're getting. He had to do it.
You hate to do it, but you had to do it.
I hate you but I had to. Alright, question number two,
what is the ideal depth for Dugtrio to cause earthquakes?
And how long would it take for a do trio?
Traveling at top speed to get there.
All right, so I'm expecting since I, since I took points off
for mr. Curtis and allows I'm expecting
extremely extremely long-winded answer.
Now, now, Mr. Be very careful here.
Don't don't give any more than one answer.
Alright, if you give me multiple answers, I will count that as
wrong regardless of whether or not one of those answers is
correct. All right.
Both of the answers are in, of course, starting with Corbin's.
He says that a dark Trio. Can that will dig 260 miles
under the ground? Well, he doesn't say under the
ground, but you know what? Know what that is in the
question. That's it is as the ideal depth.
So, you know what? That's fine.
Fine, he says 60 miles and then he says and one hour is how long
it will take for it to get there.
All right. Mr. Curtis responded with the,
the idea that for do trios, earthquake Shenanigans is strong
miles down drunk and at top speed, it would take it one hour
to get there. It's wrong.
I don't know what an idea death is, I don't know, but let that
answer leaves more questions so I don't know.
See the ideal day, take it off that.
That's a simple typo. That's fine.
You both get full marks this one?
So yes, it said about a hundred different times in the Pokedex
entries that I dug Trio, will dig, 60, miles underground.
And since it can burrow at 60 miles per hour, it would take it
approximately one hour to get to that depth.
Yeah. So like, so, like, if you think
about that, so, you're like, you're in a Pokémon battle,
right? And you're you're battling
against, Rio and the duct, the trainer of the Dugtrio says,
don't Trio use earthquake. You know, you got about a good
hour before you go, just gotta know that.
All right, wait. All right, everybody take out
your lunch. Yeah, pop a squat.
All right. Well, if I can't get to, it
says, I can travel 60 miles an hour to create an earthquake.
So as long as it can go from zero to 60 in a couple seconds,
its kind of earthquake there. No, it's not, it's not that it's
moving at 60 miles per hour, it's that it just, it is goes
Underground. Rose, it moves to 60 months, it
does move a 60 miles an hour, and that's what causes the
carbon carbon carbon. Are you, are you arguing with
the professor? I am arguing based off of what
research I've done in the Pokey. Reese trying, he's trying to,
he's trying to beat me using facts and logic, but he's, it's
not, it's not correct because it says, yes Corman, you are right.
And that it can move 60 miles per hour, but the fact of how
deep it is, is where it is, where it triggers the human
rights. Okay, okay.
Next, we only time, Where it doesn't mention that it goes 60
mph to are a 60 miles under the ground to trigger an earthquake
is the one where it also says due to this.
Some people think it's an earth, right?
Okay. Fine.
Next question, next question. All right, this is a true or
false. Mm.
So this should be quick and easy.
Don't fall like Curtis, it's got right?
Yep, it's one, one word. All you need why lowland Dugtrio
is golden hair is primarily for protection.
They can also be used as sensors.
True or false. All right, both of the answers
are in Corbin, responded with true and mr.
Curtis just wanted with the answer to this question that you
have so graciously given use of course.
Wait what? I just God damn it.
Of course yeah the answer to this question that you have so
graciously given us is you think use its you SE.
Oh my God. Oh my God.
So graciously given you of course.
True. So I'm guessing his answers true
spelling from now on you answer, more than just one word for true
and false. You get it wrong.
You don't get that. You don't get to mandate things
mr. Cry.
I don't date anyone because I'm 10 you're also not a man so
you're not right, not yet. All right, so you both got that
one. I would expect nothing less.
That was a very, very easy question question.
Number 4, you see a duck Trio above ground, repeatedly.
Bobbing its head. Why is it doing this?
We already answered this. The first question was, how does
it do trio dick to the ground? You both gave me more
information than was necessary. Okay, both of the answers are
locked in. Let's see what our good, our
good buddy, our good pal Corbin has to say.
So the question of course, was you see a directory above
ground? Repeatedly bobbing his head,
why? Why is it doing this Corbin
responded with its doing it to loosen the soil and mr.
Kirsch responded with Doug trios, Bob their heads to loosen
the soil around them. Making it easier to dig.
Yes, you are both correct. It's to loosen the soil.
You did. I mean you did both kind of
already give this answer before. Yep.
Mr. Curtis incorrectly gave this answer the first tests, right?
But can I say, I remembered from the last time I took this class
I was Open the gun. Yeah, well then II jumped.
I jumped the gun as well then. So and I've never taken before
you also gave a full an actual answer in that they had.
But the Earth, this is how I do it.
That's true. Alright, that does it for
today's quiz, you both did great with the exception of mr.
Curtis. Who could have been better if
he's always laughing or crying? Yeah, we never had it was really
a territory for rent is noise that along.
Next time can always making a Kano is getting 100 like me, I'm
sorry. Yeah, well, I'm not look at the
overall grades. Because mr.
Carter is you are quite far behind Court.
Oh no, we're by, yeah, he is for behind me.
Mentally is much further behind me Corbin is much so far behind
me. I can't even see you.
I'm so far ahead. I can even smell.
You don't have the grades in front of me right now, but I
believe The curse has like a 98 and you have an eighty four or
five. It was a five think 85.
Yeah. Yeah.
So this occurs you are securely in the lead for now.
If for now, if that's what you're interested in for now
we'll see. All right, well that does it for
Diglett but there's always another Pokemon does anybody
know what Pokémon will be talking about next time Marowak.
No, you see marriage of the evolved form of Cuban.
So We would definitely be talking about Cuba before we
talk about Marilyn. It's Cubone then obviously, huh?
Nope, it's not as I Cuba. Oh, way to beat him out of
fighting type. No, I'm not muck mr.
Curtis do you have would you happen to have a guess?
He's clearly a consolable. Is it together now?
Oh my God. Although that would be, that
would be, if I could say, that would be pretty fucking funny if
that was the next the data, or its Rattata.
Now, we're learning about me hours, all right?
We're like about me out with the scratch cat Pokemon, so that's
what our lesson will. Be focused on next time.
But until then, if you have any questions for me, you can do.
You can ask me them directly by Jenning ascending.
Me a gmail, which is horse younger male.
Yes, at wwo Pokémon at gmail.com.
If you don't have a ganger male, that's fine.
You can also find me on the flying Pokemon theme social
network site. Twitter at wwlp.com on there as
well, if you really, really liked this lesson and I mean why
would you not? This is just such an incredibly
interesting Pokemon indeed, feel free to give us a rating on
flappable podcast, which of course used to be stable,
iTunes. But you know, We're moving on to
a different place now. Yep.
Feel free to give us a rating there if the spirit moves you
but that does it for today's lesson.
So, until next time class is dismissed, welcome to the world
of Pokemon is part of the Pokey casters Network.
