Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob and welcome to my class on Pokemon
biology joining me here today in the classroom as he always does.
Is my wonderful a teaching assistant, mr.
Curtis say hello to everybody, mr.
Curtis. Thank you.
Thank you Professor. Oh, Oh, I can't, I can't wait to
tell you how excited I am for this class.
You can tell me now. You don't have to wait, to tell
me. You just tell me how exciting,
or now. I'm just, I'm just so excited to
be here. And to participate, I know the
last couple lessons, you've been, you know, kind of drawing
names from a hat. And I just want you to know I'm
ready. Oh, you see it running?
You see, I thought about that and you know, it's I mean
Professor, I've put in a lot. To work.
This time I knowed up. I wrote up an essay reading over
the entries. I'm ready.
I'm ready to really, you know, bring the heat so well, well
bring the spores, you know, I appreciate the enthusiasm.
But I thought about it and I think I'm gonna go back to
reading the Pokedex entries. Oh, it's time.
So unfortunately unfortunately, you know, an essay won't be
necessary. Professor please, Professor, I
put so much. I work into this.
This is literally, the only thing I've been doing for the
last week Professor. Wow, you two, for two classes,
you let Corbin read answers. I didn't know it just so
happened. Random chance that Corbin did
are by the way. The other person, the classroom
is our trainer and training Corbin.
Please go ahead and say hello to everybody Corbin.
Hi everyone! Hi everyone.
Sorry, voice crack there. I think it's going through a
graphing. Think I'm going through a growth
spurt. Some reason who knows my voice
Getting higher as I get older, kind of weird.
It's like, I'm Aging in Reverse, I don't get it.
He is, he may be. He is evolving, if you will.
Ah, yeah. But it's good to be here.
Um, yeah, last two lessons were fun.
I'm glad I got to read the Pokedex entries.
It felt like, I felt like I was on top of the world.
I felt like I knew more than the professor.
It felt good. It was a good feeling feeling
like I was in charge reading the bath Century.
Stop our that's the power that the Pokedex has and it's great
for You know, a new person to find it for you, okay?
Having power over the professor knowing more than Professor what
a joke. Definitely.
I mean, of course, it's delusions of grandeur but, you
know, we let him have it a little bit if he wants it.
Thanks as far as your essay goes mr.
Curtis, yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready to present.
It's six pages long. I have a PowerPoint slide here
for you know, No, I meant I make it and I make let you give a
shortened version during the unsourced uncredited article
section of the less abstract, an abstract, if you will an
abstraction abstract I mean. Okay.
So the abstracts the abstracts only one page long.
So I could do that when I don't do, what's the font size?
It's 7.50. God that's such a small plots
and Ariel as single spaced lines .5 margin.
All right. Do I need you to double space?
It I need you to double space it for me and I need you to
increase the font size to 20. That's better.
I think we need bold that yeah it has to be bolted to okay.
All right okay. All right that's enough goofing
around. I think it's time that we get
down to brass tacks and do what we came here for and that is
learn about Pokemon biology. Anybody know what Pokemon we're
talking about today? Yep you just said it brass tacks
what Pokémon is that it's nope no it's not.
You said let's get down to brass tacks.
The figure speeds. It's a figure of speech.
Okay. Sorry.
I guess if you learn nothing else, this class, you'll you've
at least learned that brass tacks is a figure of speech,
meaning to get down to business. Ah, gotcha well, hey, something
worry, I know exactly. With a Pokemon that we're
learning, I'd be so disappointed if you didn't.
And that is, of course, vile Plum.
What vileplume? Yes, very, very close from MCA.
Shh, you know, because it's like a plum.
Right? First, I feel like you're gonna
have to make sure you're gonna have to make some changes on
your paper. There.
If you spelled it with a plum, some of a plume in the name
doesn't kind of looks like a plum.
Guess it's not supposed to be though.
It's definitely a flower. Definitely.
Looks like you know what? You know.
Why am I explaining to you? What a vileplume looks like.
Let me just go ahead and show you.
Yeah. Well just whip that bad boy out.
Okay. Hold on.
Let me put a mask on here. Really?
Yes, I also have my mask to put all things.
Do we need mask step up over here?
You'll be fine. You'll be fine.
You don't wait, do you have allergies me?
No, I do. Okay here that's great.
Korben korben you heck you can have this segment of extra
spinarak web. I carry my backpack.
You know what? I'm gonna I'm gonna Just try
around the know if you can. I'm going to put that on my desk
and I'll leave it there. All right, Professor, I'm ready.
All right, here we go. Here is vileplume What, what,
what, what, what, what? Hello?
Look at those big old lady pedals to meet.
Is that meat? That's a good question.
I'm not. I'm not sure if that is like,
you know, you know fat, that's a part of, you know, vileplume or
if it's actually, you know, like flower material, whatever that
is. Yeah, I don't know, it's it
looks like a flower but sorry first glance it looked like
really, really fleshy. Like man boobs or something.
I don't know why they're vileplume.
Well, don't get too close. I'm not.
I'm not I'm not going to get too close beady eyes.
Cute smile, though. It looks a lot.
It looks a lot more like Oddish than than Gloom did.
Which is interesting. Yeah, I feel like I vileplume
Revolution was like, all right, I understand that I looked
terrible but I'll go back to my roots and beating be a cute.
Cute little baby and I'll listen I'm gonna like this, listen to
it, walk around the room. Yeah with everybody be quiet for
a second you can hear it because I kind of like slapping.
Yeah yeah yeah kind of flapping noise that is vile plumes
flower, pedals moving up and down.
Now you may notice that the air in here is starting to get a bit
yellow. That's why we have the masks.
Yeah, because vile plumes, spores and pollen actually
causes paralysis. Oh, and really really bad
allergies. So, okay, reactions.
Yeah. Cool.
As long as none of us are experiencing that then should be
fine. I do want to mention right off
the bat that that this vileplume, no relation to Jerry.
All right. Larry the the previous Oddish
that used to be the manager of the groundskeeping department
here at school. Of course, we did have to fire
him. He is banned from school grounds
now so this is yeah, this is not him not related in any way.
Gotcha! Gotcha.
Hey, I don't want that. I don't want the spores to get
out of the classroom. I'm Get up and I'm going to
close the mr. Curtis.
Can you actually get him close the door?
I can't move my legs. Hold on.
Let me get the door for you, actually.
Yeah. Can you please help corpsman out
of his chair? Mr. Curtis, you know, I yeah, I
yeah, I don't need to move. Just have your master cross.
No you don't need to do that. Right here on the floor.
No, this is not my debt. Okay, I'm starting to wonder if
this collab. This is because of vile plumes.
Tell, you know what? I'm just thinking, I'm just
gonna go ahead and put vileplume back into the Pokeball.
I think that's probably a good idea.
All right, let me, let me go open the window real quick.
Grab some of these spores a much better.
I love the breeze can take off my mask now.
Okay, yeah. Alright, perfect.
But he always. All right, I think we're ready
to actually start learning about this.
Pokémon, got up close and personal with it, but let's take
a look at these Pokedex entries. Starting, of course, with the
Kanto region, are you okay? Are you can you hear me OK, from
down there on the floor Corbin as I could?
All right, here's fine. I can't move half my rifle.
That's okay. I can't, I can't lift my arms.
My heart has drastically slow down, so he's just chilling.
Then. Yeah, don't worry.
I'm, I've documented that, you know, a vile flumes, spores, the
effect from it will, you know, go away after about, you know,
one minute minute and a half over.
Just just almost weird. It's almost the exact amount of
time required for me to read one region.
This Pokedex entries, it's weird how it works out like that.
Yeah, it does. I first come bring your
convenience convenience. Yeah, that's how I was like.
Let me just go ahead. Okay, let's go ahead.
Read the, the Kanto region pokedex entries.
Are you breathing very loudly? The larger its petals?
The more toxic pollen, it contains.
Its big head is heavy and hard to hold up the next one.
Says flaps its broad flower petals to scatter, its poisonous
pollen, the flapping sound is very loud.
We'd say we saw that firsthand. Yeah it's true.
Slapping and flapping flapping and clapping.
As I like to say, ha ha ha. Last one here, says scatters
allergy causing pollen from his broad, pedals, the larger the
pedals? The more pollen is scattered,
okay. All right, so that does it for
the Kanto region? Hey, you doing better their
Corbin feeling better? Oh well, it's coming back a
little bit. Um, I can actually move my arms
Now. Give me another minute.
I can get back in my chair. You see it.
See it's good. It's good that you're only
experiencing. You know, paralysis, it could
have been a lot worse. You could have been sneezing a
little bit. Now that one horrible, that
doesn't happen. I'm okay, I'm like, thank God.
All right, let's go ahead and move on to the Johto region and
the judge region, they say that it has the world's largest
petals, pretty impressive, right?
With every step, the pedals shake, shake out a heavy clouds
of toxic pollen. The next one, says the bud
bursts into blue. Boom with a bang.
It's like the bud of its petals. Not like it's friend, not like
it's bloody. That would be that would be
gruesome and horrible to experience.
Hold on, I'm sorry. I'm okay.
What did you say the bloom? Bursts on the boo.
What what did you say you were close but you know what?
Let me go ahead and read it again.
Okay. The bud bursts into bloom with a
loud bang. Yeah, it then starts scattering
allergenic poisonous pollen. Now, does it?
This is just do that on default, or is it like make it softer
that on purpose? If it's if it's just kind of
sitting still it's not going to do that but once it starts
flapping around, that's when I'd say that's when it comes out.
So this is one of those Pokémon that's just like Toxic by
default. Yeah it was it's very similar to
Butterfree if you guys remember how I was yeah yeah we had to go
outside for that. Oh yeah.
It's been so long since I saw mutter free the Butterfree.
I really did. Think that far forward with the
vile play on my should. I've really been getting lacks
with the safety in my classroom and I need to paint to get it
together. That's okay.
I've fill out the incident forms for you too fast.
Okay. It's always, I mean, you're
always very forgiving been black since the beginning.
We literally like like and like week, six, we had a Charizard
literally destroy half this classroom.
That was not my, how is that my fault?
Sometimes, writers are hard to control and sometimes going to
break through classroom doors. I don't know what you want from
me. Dave, I want safety.
I demanded actually. Well then you should not be a
Pokémon trainer. No, I'm gonna do it for various
reasons, but that being the main one.
Okay, where was I? Bye-bye shaking its big petals.
It scatters toxic pollen into the are turning the are yellow
gross. Yeah, this Ripple.
Did you see the ripple effect in its petals when he's walking
around here? Yes.
Like and also the Shimmer to it was like it was like really yeah
a great like particle effect kind of glossy kind of what you
would expect from the Oddish. That can tell if the soil is
good Yeah, oh yes. Yeah, I guess so.
Yeah. But maybe maybe, yeah, yeah, I
remember good. Maybe, maybe this Mi plume grew
up in a place that had really rich fertile soil.
Who knows? I don't because I just got it
from a friend. I didn't raise this Henry's.
A file from. One of my Pokemon breeder.
Come on. We're friends.
Are you getting these random Pokemon from various friends?
I have lots of friends. Okay, yeah Curtis.
He said he had friends. Hello to Professor.
Listen. Professor It has all the friends
he needs, okay, which is when we make and, and, and they consist
of mr. Curtis Curtis, my uncle who runs
the the Pokemon daycare, be honest.
That's where I get most of these Pokemon.
Okay. And, and who's definitely not.
I mean, who's definitely a real person.
And then, of course, not, you wouldn't different trench coat.
That's right. And then Gary, of course, the
Shroomish, Okay. But Gary is friends with
everybody. Yeah I mean but that doesn't
mean Gary can be friends with everyone and he can still be
friends with Gary. It doesn't just disingenuine
your friendship with him. Think that's a word but I get
what you were trying to say, okay, fine.
You do have friends but I think I think three of the people that
you mentioned were still you Curtis.
I think that's right. Okay that how I'm all that the
professor now let's talk. Let's not talk about my
depressing, social life and instead move on.
Into the Hoenn region pokedex entry.
Yeah, I think a depressing. That's not something you talk
about. How's your sex life Professor?
No. All right, vileplume.
Well, let me tell you Corbin. I keep copious notes on all of
the professor's comings and goings.
As we say, I'm gonna vomit. Hahaha anyways, vile, this is a
Hoenn region, by the way, I said that a while ago, but a lot of
people have been interrupting me with very rude statements vile
plumes. Toxic pollen triggers, atrocious
allergy attacks, that's why it is advisable.
Never to approach any attractive flowers in a jungle.
However, pretty, they may be. So if you ever find yourself in
a jungle and you see, like it's just a giant flower, like, 90%
of the time. That's going to be a vileplume.
Okay, good to know. Next time I'm near the Amazon
rainforest Iowa. I'll still I'll steer clear
Amazon real, but where's that? I've never heard of that before.
It sounds amazing. Amazon, shut up.
Sounds like a sounds like a Precious environment that needs
to be protected at all costs. I agree.
So I'm going to stay away from the vileplume that probably the
most likely live there. Well, let me let me give you a
little bit more about like another reason why you should
stay away from the pretty flowers.
So vileplume has the world's largest pedals.
We know that they are used to attract prey that are then
doused with toxic spores once the prey are immobilized, this
Pokemon catches Devours them. Whoa.
Okay, catches and excuse me, devours.
So again, I think we knew last time that Gloom is the
carnivore. Eats other eat spray.
Right. And it seems that vileplume is
continuing that Trend as it devours, the pray that it like
brings in with, it's pretty petals.
I guess, it's great. It's not going to take down
something big. It's gonna be something like a
probably. I could see it.
Take a building maybe like a Butterfree.
Maybe a Beedrill that's a little bowl.
These the but the thing is a Butterfree is bugging flying
type and those are both extremely effective against a
grass type which is what vileplume is.
Well, yeah, that's its Advantage.
I mean, that's the ultimate, you know, that's the ultimate like
Alpha strategies to take down something that you're normally
week against it and eat its body.
That's crazy. That's so metal.
I can't even describe it to you. Yeah.
Why wonder do you think I'm I don't think vileplume has any
teeth. They're probably just like eats
the thing hole and then lets it stomach acids, just dissolve
like a Butterfree whole like or it.
Probably. What it might do.
We'd have to observe this. It burnt Butterfree might break
the skull of whatever Pokemon that it captures suck the brain
fluids out. I think that's probably more
likely than anything. Well, but it says, devour making
me think that it consumes the entire thing.
Sure. Okay.
Second option grinding.
Come on. Prey into a soup and then, oh,
the soup. Okay, I doubt me have you.
It almost sounds like you've never seen a vile Bloom.
Take massive chunk bites out of paralyzed.
Poke. What the fuck is a vile Bloom?
You know? It's related to that that
Orlando fella? Yeah.
You've never seen a wild. Vileplume take massive chunks of
Flesh. Bye!
Let's out of paralyzed pokum. I can't say that.
I have, I can't say that I am either never, I've never been to
jungles where they constantly live, where they frequently
live, so, no, it is horrifying while I'm away.
I want to find a vileplume, I'm gonna take mr.
To Professor's. Vileplume lady showed us today
in class. I'ma put it in your backyard mr.
Curtis with all of your spinner acts and we'll see how it
happens. We'll see.
We'll see firsthand. How about plume hunts.
I don't want to, I don't want my this.
I have to give this violin back and I don't want it to be.
Be devoured by mr. Curtis has an army, yeah.
His numbers, his army of the number, as we call it, it's
horrible, horrible. Just for any new students, that
might not be aware Curtis, you're referring to your colony
of genetically and unethically. Modified super spinner racks and
area doses, that is totally not, authorized by any government or,
you know, research facility, you're just doing this
independent mean. Would it be ethical to let you
know? Such such potential not be
fulfilled by the, by a line of super bread?
Spin around tonight. What he's trying to say, mr.
Curtis is that you're playing Arceus and that never ends well,
all right. Yeah, yeah.
It's gonna, it's listen, I think we're going to, we're going to
read a newspaper article here at some point that says, sad man
was found eaten alive in his home by by what appears to be
the world's strongest spinner acts look.
I think the most ethical thing that could happen is you and
your entire home burning down with all your spinner acts in
it, but that's beside the point, mr.
Kerr time. It was Professor please
continue. Listen.
When Garrett Tina comes for me, that is the day.
I will stand and defend my actions to nobody else.
Okay, Wow. Let's night mother will rain
again. Let's, let's follow that up with
another pokedex entry here, from the Hoenn region.
Sure, Jesus. All right, a lot was said in
Seasons when it produces more pollen, the air around,
vileplume turns yellow with the powders with the Powder made on
such a weird word. I, you got this in Seasons.
When it produces more pollen, the air around, a vileplume
turns yellow with the powder as it walks.
That's what it's all about with the powder, the powder, who's
the powder? I'm lost in the powder, man.
It's like, that's how, that's how a, like a snowboarder
describes, like a fresh, like coat of snow.
Okay. Now, their bra, what powder?
It's like, talking about that. We know about a constant powder
like pollen, it's pollen. Okay.
So, the the fumes are the spores Blended to the powder if you
will or pollen. Yeah, pollen powder.
I think. I think they're interchangeable.
I don't think so powder. Paula is an actual thing powder,
is something that's used to describe something.
Yeah, and is pollen, not powdery.
It is, but like, hey, Alex, that would be like, interchanging the
word liquid for milk. Milk is a liquid but not every
liquid is milk. Not every powder as pollen, but
pollen is a powder. You know what I mean?
Well, but you can say, like, that's a glass of liquid there
and still be Correct. We'll see how God.
Okay. Oh the the last part is entry
says the pollen is highly toxic and causes paralysis.
And then the last entry in the Hoenn region says, its petals
are the largest in the world. It fiendishly scatters allergy
causing pollen from its petals. So this makes it sound like it's
doing this on purpose and with evil intent.
Wow. This thing sucks.
Yeah, I honestly filed them as a lot more evil than I was
expecting, he has to be. Yeah, there's two whose evil red
eyes, BTW piercing piercing Tiny's stop, fucking coughing
me. Sorry.
All right.
Moving that the center region. There's only one here.
It doesn't really add much. It just says it's pedals are
large, the largest, in the world as it walks, it scatters
extremely allergenic pollen, everything else is pretty much
the same in the you Nova in the Kalos.
And the callous and a Lola region.
There are some in the gal are but it's pretty much the same.
It just says it has the world's largest pedals with every step,
the pedal, shake out, heavy clouds of toxic pollen, and
that's going to do it for the regional Pokedex entries.
We, of course, have some unique Pokedex entries here.
How unique are they? Well, that's the only one of
their kind. So I Say literally the, the
definition of Unique Sweets. Um, this first one comes to us
from, actually, it's the first and only one comes to us from
ashes. Pokedex it says, vileplume the
flower Pokemon using the largest flower petals in the world.
It spreads large clouds of pollen that cause Al allergic
reactions. Now there's a little addendum to
this entry that talks a little bit about something called the
Salve Salve, you we'd Salve, you weed.
Sa L ve y 0, cell Joey. Okay, it says that it's an
effective stun Spore, antidote that can be made by boiling the
leaves. Wait, sorry.
And effective, stun Spore. Ended antidote can be made by
boiling the leaves of the salvio weed.
Salvia weed is found on Clear Lake bottoms wherever vileplume
live Poliwag are also found in the vicinity of this plant.
Okay, so you so if you had had some of that salvia Weed.
Yes, and boiled it. Then I could have eaten it and
not been paralyzed, man. That would have been a great
thing to think about and an act. Yeah.
For you should, you know, you should have probably brought
some of that to class assuming that vileplume were paralyzed
somebody. Yeah.
If I was, if I was better at thinking on my feet and
improvising, that's probably something that I would have
done. Yeah.
You know, really gonna buy you a call that mean every paralyzed
he'll ever made, like anyone that you buy two PokeMart, like,
does that mean there, they all have the salveorx We didn't yet.
I don't. What am I?
What am I chemist? I don't know.
I don't know what they put in stuff.
I is I just drink it all down. Tasty, tasty.
Sorry, I'm asking questions that are way too big for you to
handle / far beyond my pay grade.
Yes. And if there are and if you
don't know the answer to it and it's far beyond my pay grade and
how far beyond your pay grade is it.
I don't get paid, I paid to be here.
Exactly. Yeah that is just write a lot
of. Remember remember your police
Corbin I will. Jeez.
Okay. Alright, that does it for the
Pokedex entries. So now it's time for the
unsourced uncredited article. Oof oof presser.
Yeah. Ready are you ready, guess, I
will land for you Professor, I'll let mr.
Cruz, read it this time. I'll let him read, whatever
monstrosity. He's created no PowerPoint
though. And it has to be, you know,
short succinct a summary of this six or eight pages of what you
wrote, okay? And it's got to be Vileplume not
vile Plum, are vile Bloom, not that either vileplume, please.
Okay. Are you ready?
Yes, I ah, gosh. Oh, gosh.
I've been, I've been training for this.
I've been ready for this for four weeks now.
So, do it. Vileplume is the big red flower
Pokemon. It's mostly a big red flower
with one thick trunk that contains its face.
S and mouth. It's creepy.
Your red beady eyes, attached to the aforementioned Indigo trunk
are two very basic arms and basic feet.
But really the flower is where the action happens.
Its petals are the largest in the world and I'm practically
r2r. Excuse me are practically too
big for the rest of the body to support and in the center of
this massive red flower with white dots is the or Just Brown
hole of death from which all evil spills forth in the form of
nasty, nasty pollen, vileplume can generate this nasty pollen
onto man and is known to release it with every step.
It takes this Harlot can cause severe allergic reactions in
humans and is toxic to other Pokemon.
It uses this Pokemon to paralyzed It's pray before
devouring it. Now you said eight me.
He said it uses his Pokemon. You just did you mean it uses
this pollen? Excuse me.
A uses this pollen to paralyze. Its prey before devouring.
It trust me. You don't want to see that.
It's horrifying. Luckily, the aren't that common
in the wild because they evolve via evolution.
Stone is true and you can avoid them if they are moving because
you can hear the loud Slappy Slappy, Downs of their petals
that that their petals make as they walk.
Trust me, if you hear what sounds like a wet newspaper,
hitting concrete out, front of your house, you better run the
command f is on the way. Wow.
Was that it? That was it?
Wow! Good job.
Oh mr. Curtis, thank you for bringing
the Boombox to class and playing that song.
Along with it. That was made it a thousand
times more terrifying. I don't know where you got the
chain chains from and don't know why you were rattling them with
one hand. But hey, it added to the effect.
Yeah, that's great. And I like how you, I like
Kelly, I didn't even know we had like dimmer lights.
I didn't know that we could do that for these lights.
Yeah, he really he really brought out the stop.
Man. Yeah, and it's raining outside
now, like, was it, was it raining before, or, I don't
know. Oh, wait, hold on.
Hold on. Under its Gary, the Shroomish on
the roof with a hose. Good job here.
Okay. Okay.
Very good job. Gary, did you get Gary in, on
this with you, mr. Curtis listen, Gary has been
Gary was helping me out. Okay?
He and I have been brain shopping.
It went for work. Shit.
Workshopping. What's these box?
Brain strange shopping. Did you mean the same time
brainstorming now brainstorming and workshops and, and putting
together a grill, we've been bringing shopping and work
storming. Oh also, I had I had Gary like
hold up a screen to kind of dim the the exterior lights and and
the poly world that lives in the pond.
Oh here at the Harold, yah Darrell, you know, he's kind of
hides at the bottom because he's really kind of trespassing.
I traded him some some of my old pathans to have him use, rain
dance as I started the song. Okay.
So then why was Gary needed for the hose?
Yeah, we have white. You really have conflicting
events going on here. I think we, I think we should
probably just choose. What did you just tell Gary to
be a part of it to make him feel good?
Good. Yeah, I mean he was also holding
the screen up to kind of block some of the light.
He also was shaking it a little bit to make that thunder noise
that we all heard. That was very loud, very good.
Alright, good job Gary. Thanks Gary and good job mr.
Curtis, that was excellent. You know, I didn't I didn't ask
for this essay but, you know, it really shows me that you are
trying to go the extra mile. So Step It Up, Corbin for sorry
for you. Professor.
I would go that Mile and and 500 more.
Well, let's let's put that to the test because right now we're
going to do a Quiz, pop it up. All right.
So go ahead. Put away.
Your Pokedex has and your your notebooks and all the notes that
you've taken. I know.
You sure. Copious notes.
Get out. Get out your Rotom laptops, some
pencils and paper and get ready to take this quiz.
Let him take it running all the way.
All right. Question number one, what are
vile plumes large, beautiful petals used for.
All right, both of the answers are and let's go.
Ahead and read Corbin's first. He says, the petals are used for
spreading pollen, and spores around where Curtis responded
with Mi plume uses. Its large beefy, petals to
spread its evil pollen to unsuspecting victims this on,
okay? So you guys kind of had a
similar answers here, it's to spread pollen.
Now that's not exactly, correct. That's not what the pedals are
used for. Now, the petals Are used to
attract the prey. All right, ah, now I will give
you points as you both answer the same thing.
What is the pollen used for? What does it use the pollen for
own answer? This, I will give you go and
type it in. Oh, okay.
Well, what does it want them? Gone is used for, yes, if you
can get this right, then, I will give you points for this
question. I understand that this one might
have been a little bit cryptic. Yeah, you kind of messed up
there a little bit prefer. No, I can't.
No, I did not mess up. I did not mess up.
All right, that was on you. I am being generous here.
All right. Spreading pollen is not the
purpose of the pedals. It just something that the
pedals do, it's not okay. Purpose of the ball, right.
Okay. So to answer, what the pollen
does Corbin responded with the pollen is used for paralyzing.
Pray, aka me sure. Yeah, I guess it did do that.
And then Curtis said, vileplume uses its pollen to immobilize
its prey so that it can do Our its prey.
Yes. So it uses its pollen to
mobilize the prey and it uses its petals to attract the prey.
That's what I use them for make sense and your you guys are
right in saying that the pedals do spread out the the pollen it
does come from the pedals but that's not what they're that's
not their main purpose, gotcha. Okay, alright.
Well do we get full credit for that one?
Yes, I'll get, I'll give you full credit for them.
Oh yeah, thank you Professor. I will I will ever Strive to do
better. I'll do better.
If I feel like this, just think about your answers a little bit
more before you just go ahead and blurt them out.
All right, I'm kidding question. Number two, vileplume can end up
being a very loud Pokemon. Name to noises, they are known
to make. I'm sure, I'm sure, mr.
Curtis is gonna do, it is going to Exelon this.
Since I'm sure this was included in his six page essay that he
wrote and he is didn't get time to include it in his in his
short and diversion. All right.
Both of the answer. Are in.
So Corbin responded. With the two sounds that a
violin is done to make our one burst burst sound from its spore
hole on top of head. I can't think of the name Spore
hole and then to flapping slapping noises from the pedals
flopping up and down and then mr.
Curtis says, the pedals make a flapping noises, they slapped
and slapped together. God, you guys love doing that.
To me, we do and They produce a loud banging noise as their
blooms burst. Yes.
It was the blooms bursting, not necessarily their Spore whole.
I thought the squirrel was bursting.
It was the bloom. Its it said the temple.
It says open the bud bursts into bloom with a bang so when it
that's a lot of bees. All right, I did burn I got
burst in there. Yeah.
Common korben korben. The technical term is orangish,
brown hole of From which all evil spills for, okay?
All right, don't listen, don't listen to him, that's not the
technical term, all right, so burst Bloom I burn bright blooms
the bite of bursts the by a little boom The Bigs budburst
blooms. Sure.
Whatever is that it? Okay, so the next question.
Number 3 - right? Yeah, yeah.
You guys. Both got points for that good
work Sweets. How is I was worried.
You guys are gonna forget about the loud, bang noise all
together. So I wouldn't forget about that
burst, whatever the big Edward Bloom burst Bud.
Oh how do you forget the word? But every single time Big
budburst Bloom wouldn't forget about that bursting into bloom
bursting. It does it mean to bloom?
What does that mean? It sounds like somebody's
reaching leave looking sexual like be if Bert.
Hey, buddy, 39, in person settle down.
All right. Out of control.
You both got the poisonous when he hits puberty.
You burst into bloom. I've never said that before.
I don't think anybody has big bud.
You're probably fingertips. I think I should go ahead and
read the next question. I should be a safe and then go
ahead and do that name. The plant that is effective at
curing vile plumes paralysis effect and where it can be
found. Hopefully you wrote this down
because I definitely would not remember it if I didn't write it
down. I I can't remember what it's
called. Hopefully I'm spelling it right.
Probably not. All right, both of the answers
are in. Corbin responded with the Silvio
route. So so video, I don't even know
if I'm pronouncing that correctly.
Yeah, he said, Silvio route or something.
It can be found at the bottom of lakes next to vileplume and
Poliwag. Habitats, Curtis responded with
Salve, oh, we need can cure the effects of something, stun
Spore. And they are found at the bottom
of bodies of water. So yeah, you are both correct.
Wow. I like completely almost I knew
something. I can ask them to sit and then a
veil I literally just put a bunch of like letters together
and it just happened to be right.
I mean I'll say all pretty funny.
I mean I totally knew it. I mean I totally knew it I'll
say this for when you did spell it wrong you didn't spell it
correctly. I knew I knew what you were
saying. God I'm so shocked.
I got that, right? I mean, I know my stuff and
technically technically it's not at the bottom of any body of
water. It's at the bottom of Clear
Lake's. So I could be really shitty and
not give that you could be, but you're not gonna be.
I don't think I am going to give you the point because it was, it
was close enough naturally. That's what we say here in
Professor Jacobs classroom. Close enough.
That's right.
Yeah. Alright, the last one is a
deceptively difficult, true or false questions.
So make sure you're okay, okay, okay.
All right, okay, Zone Champion, right here, professor and turned
in ramped up, hit me up, true or false.
So, the larger of vileplume is petals, the more toxic its
pollen, is to be talked about this, we did.
We, maybe I have the answers from both my students, just true
or false question. But the answer from Corbin, is
this true or false question was false?
He says that it's false that the larger a vile, plums pedals are
the more toxic, the pollen is and Curtis responded with a
little bit more information. He said, false.
The pollen is not more toxic, but the larger petals The more
toxic pollen they contain. That's exactly correct.
Mr. So the the Pokedex entry specifically States, the larger,
that's pedals the more toxic pollen it contains.
Okay? And there was another one that
says the larger, the pedals, the more pollen is scattered.
So okay, so it does address. That makes sense.
That makes sense Corbin. I don't know whether or not you
just guessed on that one but regardless you got pretty sure I
knew it. False.
I knew it was. Okay.
I was like, we didn't talk about being a talk about that.
I don't think that's what we did.
Talk about it. What I'm saying like me and
talked about that being true. That's what I meant.
All right, you guys did very well on this quiz, I did try to
trip you up few times here and there, but you did an excellent
job 100's for both of you. Excellent.
I'm very, very proud. Very nice.
Thank you, Professor. I really tried harder on this
one guy and he did a great job and hey, guys, it's a excellent
essay, mr. Curtis very well.
Thank you. Thank you.
I love it. When a student, you know, takes
the extra effort. I'll put the other Five and a
half pages on your desk for you to read kind of a job Curtis
love the theatricals really sold your points there.
And to that point, I'm very eagerly looking forward to the
essay that Corbin has written on Voltorb, which he promised us
that he wrote what's a during Jigglypuff lesson if you recall
correctly. Yeah, we ones Voltorb.
I mean, it's a ways away but your you already wrote the
essay. Oh yeah, I already wrote that.
Yeah, so I mean it is a ways away so we're not going to talk
about it for, right? Couple weeks, maybe months,
maybe a year. I don't really know.
But that does it for today's lesson.
If you have a weight I should say, what Pokemon are we talking
about? Next time, it has nothing to do
with Mi plume or Oddish. Even though Oddish does have
never another evolutionary. Former longtime went to this
one. Professor.
Yeah, I know this one. You you.
I don't know if you do as the SEC spell as the self-proclaimed
insect. Pokemon specialist self.
I'm happy to announce that. The next one will be in a bug
type and that bug type will be cross.
I'm sorry about the what? I did not understand what you
just said, can you can you repeat it for me?
Yeah, please it's Paul Ross. Oh Paris Ross cool.
Learning about ours which is a bug, grass-type Pokémon.
Ah yeah, very interesting. So we'll be learning about that
next time and that does it for today's lesson.
If you have any questions for me that, you know, you just didn't
want to like, bother the class. With, that's fine.
You can, you can email me directly at wo Pokemon at
gmail.com. Which is, of course a Gengar
male noise an email before. That's not an idiot weird, the
slip of the tongue, but you can also contact me on the bird,
Pokemon themed social network site, Twitter, at wo Pokemon
there as well. If you enjoyed this lesson, you
can go to and you like, you like first.
Jacob is so great. Everybody else needs to know
about them. You can go to write your
professor.com and you can just give me Give me a 4.0.
That'd be really helpful. And, you know, I don't see that
chili pepper by my name. Some a little bit insulted.
What about the flat? What about the flat Bowl?
What about the flap will website?
Don't, you can go to Flap or podcasts to if you if you want
to and give me five stars there but really hate that, right?
Your professor thing. That's really important.
Yeah, let's give a rating game a rating.
I mean, it's the, the website won't let me put any more
ratings down. So, yeah, I mean, you know.
Yeah, it's because you've been spamming the website.
Curtis. Yeah, and also they, they like
looked through his posting history and they just were like
we gotta get those guys. They actually flagged him for
being a stalker for a professor. Jacob.
So he has actually been banned from the website six times.
Yeah. They sent me an email saying
what I gained got mail. Yeah, thank you.
Thank you. And because they thought I was a
boss because I kept posting the same review over and over again.
So many times in such a short period of time, maybe you should
stop doing them but that does it for today's lesson.
So until Till next time class is dismissed.
