Hello there everybody. Welcome to the world of Pokémon.
My name is Professor Jacob. Thank you everybody for
attending this this beautiful hike.
Can you pass? The water, Mr. Curtis, can you
pass the water that is a hot? Morning.
Yes, sure, of course. Here you go, Corbin.
I got a I got a jug here. I got a bottle here.
Oh. Thank you so much.
How about, how about this? How about this barrel?
I got to give you a barrel. I don't need a barrel.
Why do you have a barrel? How you that you did not have
that barrel this whole time? Well, I, I just, I picked it up.
It was on the, it was on the side of the trail back there.
It's full of rainwater. All right, Corbin, what does
your Cub Chew Scout handbook say about leaving things as we find
find them? It says that we leave things as
we find them, Mr. Curtis, and don't make me recite the other
tenants to you, but again, to remember about the Cub Chew
journey that is today, OK. But it's not a natural rain
barrel. OK, someone left it there.
That rain barrel go out of a plant.
OK, I'll go put it back. I'm sorry.
Remember the motto. When in doubt, chew it out.
OK, think is the cup. Chew it out.
When in doubt, chew it out. When in doubt, chew it out, all
right? Don't make me recite the other
tennis because I what does do it?
What does? What does?
Chew it out mean exactly. It mean, well, it's, it's a,
it's an anagram for the cub chew.
You know what I mean? It's chew, cub chew.
You combine that together. So it's when in doubt, chew it
out. So the whole chew it out thing
basically means what would a Cub chew do in that moment?
If you're in doubt, chew it out. Think of what the Cub chews
would do in unhelpful statements and think about the tenants that
it well, it shortens everything. Instead of saying, hey, what
would a Cub chew scout do? You just say when in doubt, chew
it out. It's a lot more fun to say, and
anybody who's on the know how knows what it means.
Because they know the tenants. Because they know the tenants
like you know the tenants. Right.
Like I know the tenants by heart.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. See, I, I thought, I thought you
just actually like stopped and chewed on something.
Like if you're in doubt if you chew on something, maybe you'll
come to a good. Or like you can, you can do your
way through anything. No, a couple other kids of my
troop though did think that and they are in the hospital.
They chewed on the wrong plant in our botany session so that's
all I'll say. Oh wow.
You don't want to do that. OK.
Can I? I'm trying to introduce the
class here. Yeah.
Yeah, Yeah. Sorry.
All right. OK.
So this is a lecture on Pokémon biology.
For those of you who don't know, my name is Professor Jacob
today. So for somehow, for some reason,
Corbin was able to talk me into. A field trip.
A well, a camping trip. We're going, we're, we're in,
we're in the woods. I I think we we walked outside
of the classroom and into the woods behind the GCLCBOTSCLC.
Yeah, exactly. Don't you?
Don't you love it, Professor? Where?
I stand the woods. I mean, he's still the beautiful
out here. So the plan, if you look at the
map here, the plan is to go down, keep going South and end
up in the Ilex Forest. There's rumors that there's a
Celebi there. I'm thinking maybe we can jump
ahead and have Celebi in a lesson coming up.
That's my thought. All right, I know I said one day
is all I need for the field trip, but I think if we hustle
we can make it to the Ilex forest by night time we might be
able to see Celebi. Night time I want to be back at
home by 5. What?
OK, well. Then I have to I have to be back
to feed the spinner. Out.
Oh, Mr. Curtis is back. Yeah, no, yeah, I'm back.
I'm. Back if you, if you do a swift,
if you do a swift jog, we might be able to get there by 4:30.
That's enough time. This is the fast I I did, I did
look up online what was Celebi's favorite foods.
I saw on Dell, Fox News that it was actually Donuts.
So I brought Donuts in my bag and I'm going to see if that
works. Well, I don't believe that's
true at all. I will not, you know, say no to
Donuts. I'll just.
Go ahead and take one. Thank you very.
Much. That's OK, Corbin, I'm trying to
watch my figure and I don't want to eat anything.
More. Watch it do what?
Get bigger. Good.
One OK, joining me on the beautiful trail here today is of
course, my teaching assistant, Mr. Curtis.
Mr. Curtis, are you are you OK? Are.
You. Yes, yes, I'm.
I Listen. I can't let his words get me
down. I'm in my element.
OK, We're in the. Woods we really.
Are the the mercrows are calling and the you know the the cater
bees are scurrying and cater bees.
The Ekins are slithering around the plumes be pluming.
This is the. Sun Current.
Day. Randomly falling out of the sky.
This is the day, the night Mother has made, and let us be
happy. That's right.
That's, well, not about the night part is.
Weird. Wait is that?
Is that a cub chew thing? Is that?
Not a cub chew thing. No, that's something he made-up.
Mr. Curse, were you in the Cub Chews?
Were you? Were you a Cub Chew Scout?
No, I always wanted to be one, but when I when I.
Went to try because one of the tenants is no killing whatsoever
so he can't be a coach. Yeah, they, they would never.
I I went to tryouts but they wouldn't let me join.
They never told me why though, I mean.
I didn't think you had to try out for it.
You just, you know, sign up. That's it.
You gotta. You have to pay a very handsome
fee. You gotta apply.
They review, you know, and and then you know they give you
they, you know either approval or denial.
So, well, Donnie J back at home got a pay bump.
So that's how I was able to afford going into the Cub Chew
Scouts. To confirm or deny that
statement that Mister Curtis made about a rigorous trial
process is our young trainer and training Corbin, who is a Cub
Chew Scout. So how did you, how did you join
the, the Cub Chew Scouts, Corbin?
I joined a couple weeks ago. It was actually, I believe, I
believe if I remember correctly, it was Gordon, my roommate who's
a cadabra. He told me about it, not audibly
through my brain. That was weird.
Anyway, and then Johnny, Johnny Jay worked his second job.
He gave me. Visions of the Cub Chew Scouts.
And I was like, Oh my gosh, that's something I have to do.
That seems really cool. I love the outfit.
Which, by the way, do you like the fit?
Hey, hey, hey. The shorts are a little bit too
short and can kind of hear a snap there, but hey, I think I
look dandy. My hat is Cub Chew themed.
My little pants are Cub Chew themed.
I look ravishing. And yeah.
Corbin, keep up. You're get.
You're falling behind. Come.
On Oh, I just come on, but why do you.
Stop moving, we're still hiking. Well, I look good.
And I had to stop and talk about it for a second.
Come on. Yeah.
But yeah. So Karen put me on to it and
then I joined. And then when I told Donnie J,
the Mr. mine back at home that lives with my mom, I told him,
hey, can you work a little bit harder?
I want to get in there. And he done diddly did it.
So I am very thankful. What a good dad stepping up.
He's still, he's not my dad. This reminder, he's not my dad,
but he's stepping up. He did, he do.
He always takes care of you though.
He he Yeah, he does. And your mom?
Very well. But you know what?
My mom doesn't have that. I have a Cub True Scout uniform.
Hey, hey. OK, well.
He stopped. Corbin, come on.
Stop what? I'm sorry you're falling behind.
Nobody cares about your Cub Chew uniform.
I'm like, gosh, I wish. People, there's no, none of our
none of our virtual students care.
They're definitely not going to draw fan art of you in a Cub
Chew Scout uniform and then send it to our Gengar mail at
wwopokemon@gmail.com. They're not going to do that.
So and. If and if and since they're not
going to do it, we're not going to post it, you know, on social
media and Instagram and Twitter. The, you know, it was for
millions of adoring Pokémon fans to see.
I mean, that's not going to happen.
Hundreds of 1,000,000. No, it's just not going to
happen. It's not going to happen, so
don't do. It so don't.
Well, I mean, you don't need to tell them to not do it because
they just aren't. Because they're not going to do
it. No one's going to send that.
So of course, stop doing all those funny poses.
Oh, sorry. And no one's going to use the
official, you know, class artwork to reference, you know,
with my, you know, dark blue hair and my outfit.
Well, you could change the outfit, but yeah, no one's going
to use that reference to get an accurate depiction of what I
look like. Who?
Who okayed official school artwork?
Huh. Yeah, the one that's on our
Patreon banner. Yeah, that's us.
Oh, I don't, I don't look at that, that, that that's managed
by Mr. Curtis. And Portia, that's right, I.
Think it's a great, I think it's a great piece of artwork.
Thank. You.
It makes you look cuter than you are, Mr. Curtis.
You're actually really hideous in person.
No, No drawing can depict that. OK, I think we've established
pretty well that Corbin is a Cub Juice Scout and that we are on a
hike to do a little bit of camping so he can get some merit
badges or something, whatever they do, and I would like
thinking about it now. I would love so much to ask
Corbin about what Cub Chew Scout merit badges he has.
However, we have a lesson to get through today.
I told Corbin we can go on a hike, but I'm still talking
about Pokémon. They're still getting a lesson.
That's fine, That's fine. I we literally talked about this
last week. I said it was probably going to
be happening during the lesson and we'd be going on a field
trip. So it's fine.
It's fine. It's a it's a whole day of.
We have a contract to fulfill to our students.
OK, Corbin, I mean. It's only, listen, it's like I
said, it's only it's one day. It's just one day in the woods.
It's fine. And these days, these lessons
are the only thing that keeps me sane.
So I really, I really do gotta, I really do gotta just talk
about Pokémon sometimes, OK. Scratch Itch.
Does anybody know what Pokémon we're going to be talking about
this week? It's a grass type, right?
It is a grass type, which is great cuz we're out here in
nature, can really feel the vibe.
Of the of. The grass.
Is it Turtwick? The wriggle and the wobble.
It's not. It's of course, gonna be
Decidui. Neither does I could smell it in
the air. Well, we got to have Rowlett
first, so that's why today we're learning about Rowlett, right?
No, we're not learning about Rowlett.
And I don't know what you're smelling in the air, Mr. Curtis.
I guess suppose it could be a decidui, but that doesn't mean
that we're talking about it. Oh.
Wait, can you smell a decidui? Yeah, they kind of have like a a
cinnamon and lavender smell. Oh what a nice combo.
I'd love to smell 1 something. Yeah, I wonder if they mentioned
that in the Pokedex. I guess we'll see when we get
there, you know, whenever that is.
They'll be soon, right? I think it's like 3 weeks or
something. Yeah, a couple 300 weeks.
OK, What? What?
OK, no, we're not learning about either of those.
We're not learning about Decidua or Turtwig.
We are learning. I'm just going to say it.
We're learning about Hoppip. Oh, OK.
Oh nice. Yes, Hoppip are pretty common
around here in the Joeto region. Has anybody?
Has anybody seen one just floating around?
I, you know what? I, I think I did see one.
We first started off into the woods outside the building.
I think I did see one that was kind of floating off and a Bush.
Didn't get a good look at it though, so I'd like to see one
up close if you have one. Oh jeez, do I have one here?
They're not I I I do see them sometimes around they get caught
in spinner rack webs, but they're not great.
Food. They're, yeah, they're not great
food for the spinner racks, though, so I usually pick them
out and I just like, you know, punt them out into the air again
so they start floating away. Oh, ain't that sweet.
Do you? Did you bring any with you
today, Mr. Curtis? No, no, I didn't.
I got, I got some. I mean, you know, every once in
a while I have to like get their fuzz off of me.
But no, I didn't bring any with me.
Dang. It Oh yeah, check, check the
backpack. Is it?
Did I put one in the backpack?
You put a hot pip in the backpack.
No, not the pokey ball. Pokey ball.
Oh, I was like. In a pokey ball.
Hold on. All right.
Here, here. Here's one right here.
You see, it's it's Velcroed to the back of the backpack here.
The here you go pokey. Ball Oh, thank you.
No, no, the hot pip itself, you just tear it off right here,
see. Oh, you did.
Oh. I thought, I see.
I thought that was the case. I thought that's.
Mr. Curtis, I think I remember him telling you he said to put
it in. He said take the pokey ball and
put it in the backpack. And somehow you heard I'm going
to take the hop out of the pokey ball and then I'm going to tape
it to the backpack inside Velcro, Velcro.
Velcro. So what about that?
How did that get lost in translation?
You didn't hear it making that little that little noise.
It does as they definitely. Did I just don't know why you
did that. It's OK it.
Doesn't answer the question that.
Doesn't answer the question. I said why did you do it?
And he said that's okay. But it's also not wrong.
It is okay, I guess. Is it okay here?
I mean, we just, I didn't, I didn't.
I thought we're going outside. It's, you know, perfect area for
hot hip. Yeah.
Why? Why would it want to be in a
pokey ball? It doesn't.
Right, exactly. I mean, look at this little guy.
He's he's having a good time. Obviously would much prefer to
be Velcro to a backpack. That's right, and he doesn't
even seem upset about it. He's a little free spirit.
He's adorable. That'd be a dope name Spirit.
What a cool name for hip hop. Yeah, I can see it.
I meant. Hip.
Sorry I haven't wrapped in a while.
You can listen again. Nothing.
But look at Spirit. Hi there.
Also, that happens to be one of our patrons, by the way.
I saw that out there. Yeah, it's kind of it just it
just hit me like a ton of bricks anyways.
Corbin Describe, describe spirit to me.
Pink floating grass hair. Grass.
Grass hair, I guess. So yeah, I guess it is kind of
like hair. It's like it's like 2, it's like
2 Fern, little leaves kind of poking out of its head, but it's
small pink got little nubbins for arms and feet, little baby
nubs. And we got, we got nubs on this
one. We got do got nubs.
There's no hands or legs or pennages to be found with just
little nubbins. And then we have a long little
baby tail and he's just floating about.
Spirits, just floating and having a good old time.
I've looked at a lot of hop hips and I've never really noticed
the tail, but it does have a tail.
It does have a tail. It's back there.
It's cute. You can see it but not from the
front. From the side though.
It's a It's got a face that says, don't put me in a
pokeball. Velcro me to the back of your
backpack. Oh, that's why you did it, OK.
I think it has a face that says hop, hip hop, hip.
But I have a face that says hip hop.
Is that what? Is that what you called it
before? No, I definitely did not say hip
hop, sorry. Forre said.
Forre's trying to say hip hop. I've been trying not to relapse
all right. Yeah, I didn't want to draw too
much attention to it, but you're right.
Yeah. I'm not supposed I'm not
supposed to rap, OK? And I'm tempted.
To He is slipping back into his rapping ways Professor, we may
have to send him back to a. Camp.
I'm not going. I'm going to be fine.
OK, It's all fine and sublime.
Let's learn about Hop it before I dip.
Oh, you know I can't. Oh God, he's he's in the he's in
the drift. I'm in the zone.
He's deep in the currents of rhyming.
I mean a hip hop would be a great name for a hop hip
honestly I think. Hip hop would be hip hop.
You know what? That's your.
That's your middle name, spirit. Spirit Hip Hop Hip.
Hip Hip hop, Hip hop, Hip hop, hip hop hip.
There you go. There you go.
And now let's hear Mr. Curtis say it.
Yep. A a hop, a hop, a spirit hop
hip. No, I can't do.
It he's not even trying. He's not even.
Trying, not even trying, to give it up immediately.
OK, I'm going to go ahead and take Spirit here and put him
right back on to Mr. Curse's backpacks.
His Velcro Oh put him. Right, right back here.
Look, he's so happy about that. He, I can't see him.
He's Velcroed in he's. Trapped, but but whenever Mr.
Curtis turns around, we can't go there.
See, he just. Turned around.
Yeah. See.
Watch. Me as I turn back.
And here we go. And that turns forward.
Yeah, there it is. OK, Yeah.
OK, all right. Well, with that out of the way
with with spirit out of the way, I think it's time to read some
Pokedex entries. And I do have my handy dandy
pocket Pokedex with me at the moment.
And so I can read entries from it.
I love this little thing. Sounds Gucci.
I don't know what that is. I don't.
Is that a bad word? Did you just say a bad word,
Corbin? No, I said.
That's. Gucci.
That's good. That's fine.
It's golden. It's gravy.
It's cool. Get to watch that.
Watch that dirty mouth of yours out you.
Watch your gross mouth and your giant 9 foot tongue or whatever
all over long. Way put it.
Away. Stop reminding me.
OK, OK, OK, I'm sorry. Go back.
Go back to class. We never left class.
That's right. Well, I mean, we can't go back
to class, Mr. Curtis, because we are out here in the wilderness,
so. Did you just tell your tongue to
go back to class? Yeah, yeah.
Is that what you meant? I sent him back to.
I sent him back to class. That's.
What he calls his mouth. Classes in like the back of your
throat. Oh God, we could have a lot of
different things that we could say about it, but we won't, we
won't say those things, right? We're not going right, right?
It'd be funny, though. It'd be funny.
God, OK, now that Mister Curse's tongue is safely away.
Hopefully it's the last time you have to say.
That I know it won't be, though I know it won't.
Oh, I hate that. I have.
All right, let's see here. Jeez, this.
The text is so small, it's kind of hard to read.
All right, starting in the Jota region, the first entry here
says to keep from being blown away by the wind, they gather in
clusters. They do enjoy gentle breezes
though. The gentle breeze.
And that's why we had to Velcro spirit to Mr. Curses backpack,
otherwise it would float away. Just blow right away.
Okay, but you could have just kept it in the Pokeball and it
would have been fine. Oh, apparently.
Apparently pokey balls just grow on trees for Corbin.
Apparently. Well, OK, they don't, I mean.
I mean, I guess if you think of it, they kind of do.
I mean, especially here in the Johto region.
But you said you had a pokey ball for every Pokémon in the
Johto region already. Did I say that?
You did? Yeah.
Underneath the rug in the room. Yeah, and most.
Of them. Are the the hop hip that I
normally use for the class is still in there.
And so I had to, I had to, I had to, you know, think on my feet
and snag a. Switched on.
You switched? Oh, you switched the hop Hip
out? Why?
Because I didn't think about it beforehand, Corbin.
OK. Well, then that's on, you know
what, not very professionally of you.
I know. I'm sorry I dropped the ball.
I was covering for Mr. Curtis. He dropped the pokey ball.
Blame it on me, I'm sorry. That's fine.
Listen, listen. I think, you know, it's nice to
let the hop of experience the world, Corbin.
I mean, I get it. Yeah, the fresh breeze through
the closed backpack. It's open ball, right?
It's it's low. It can, it can see.
Look, Mr. Curtis, turn around. It's.
Just Oh, it's. Just back where it.
Is yeah, see. Look how happy Spirit is.
Oh, I thought you zipped it up for a second.
Oh, my bad. I'm sorry.
He's the angle, right? No, no, no, no.
He's fine. He's Gucci, he's just hanging
out on the back. There, all right, you're going
to notice a trend with a lot of these Pokedex entries, so I
guess maybe. I'm all about trends.
So let me let me know if you can guess what it is.
It's body is so light, it must grip the ground firmly with its
feet to keep from being blown away.
All right. I'm not noticing a trend yet.
OK, agree. The next one.
See if you know what I'm saying. Like it can be carried away even
on the gentlest breeze. It may even float all the way to
the next town. It's light.
Whoa. Yeah, okay, it's light, sure.
I guess is one I'm really thinking trying to get here is
that it floats away a. Lot yeah, it like can't control.
It, but I think that's like intentional.
I think. Like, I don't think it's always
a drifter, a bad thing. Yeah, it's a drifter.
Who knows where it's gonna go next?
Right, exactly. But but a lot of these entries
kind of make it seem like they don't want to do that, like they
don't want to float away. But they just can't help it.
Moving on to the Hohenn region, the century says this Pokémon
drifts and floats with the wind. If it senses the approach of
strong winds, Hop IP links its leaves with other Hop IP to
prepare against being blown away.
Oh, OK. Yeah.
So it definitely makes it sound like they don't want that to
happen. I think, I think this, these
entries could benefit from like, you know, really emphasizing the
fact that it's from the violent winds.
It doesn't want to be violently blown away.
Like gentle breezes are fine. Of course, gentle breeze.
It's all about it, yeah. Yeah, like, hey, like, you feel
that breeze right now? It's man, that's nice.
It's a nice breeze. I like that.
I'll just turn around in it. Wait, how is how?
How is spirit doing? Is Spirit happy about the
breeze? Yeah, I can't.
I can't see your security turn. Oh.
Sorry, let me turn around real quick.
You. Oh well, look at Holy Spirit's
SO. Happy.
OK, I'm I got to come back around.
I can't. I can't.
No, I think you had something to
say, right? You were going to say something.
I, I was going to say something about hot pips putting down
roots, but I don't, I don't think that that would land
anymore. So we're just.
Oh oh, did we squash your funny joke?
I mean, no, it's OK, professor. What you had to say was much
funnier. I don't think it was.
Oh, man. OK, maybe save it, Mr. Curtis.
Maybe you'll find find another place that's true.
That's true. Another.
Time. So that does it for the Helen
region. Moving on to the center region,
there's not a lot of entries here for hop IP.
Oh. Yeah, well, I know it's always,
I mean it's not super surprising though.
In the center region they say it drifts on winds.
It is said that when hop IP gather in fields and mountains,
spring is on the way. Well, we're technically in
summer right now, OK. But yeah, I mean.
I mean, I wouldn't say that we're in a field or a mountain
right now. We're kind of in a forest.
You're right, we're in the forest.
You couldn't. OK, So what does that mean for
us? What do you?
What is there any signs that say it's summer 'cause I think it
is. I mean the the leaves are in
like you know are on the trees I guess.
Hot Pip, thanks for letting us know.
I'm sorry Spirit, thanks for letting.
Us know spirit, OK, We it's not like we have we don't have
anything that says Hoppip is a messenger of the seasons.
All all we have is that it sometimes it gathers in fields
when spring is on the way. Okay, but they disperse out in
the woods and hang out when it's summer.
I don't know. Okay.
They just, they just don't. They just don't gather in the
fields and mountains. I'm just saying sometimes I
might want to know where it is in the other months or the other
seasons. Well, OK, well, let me just see
if it says anything about that and the rest of these pill kicks
entries. Nope, Nope, not at all.
Doesn't say anything about that in any of these other entries.
OK. Unfortunately, I mean like, I
don't know, you want an itinerary, you want a, you want
a detailed calendar of where hop hips are going to be all year.
Round they're free. Why?
Are you talking down to me? I just wanted.
To go they're. Free.
They're very short. They go, they go, they go where
they want. I mean, you don't know where
they're going to be. I mean, they really don't go
where they want. Beautiful.
I should write a poem about it. I would that.
I would argue that they very much do not.
Go where they want. I mean, they yeah, they're free
spirits. That's what I'm trying to say.
I mean, they are pretty beholden to the winds, yeah.
They're freely to follow the wind.
OK, and put that on a shirt. Oh, Beholden to the Wind would
be a great T-shirt and album title.
Beholden to the wind. Beholden to the wind.
And the band is hop, hip hip hop.
Hop. Hip Hop.
No, wait, that's the genre. That's the genre that that we
play. The band name is Lantern's
Light. I'm.
Pretty sure no lanterns. Oh.
Oh, yeah. We already had Lantern Flight as
a band. Yeah, right.
That we thought. We thought of that.
Man, we're funny, all right. Callbacks.
OK, so let's see here.
That does it for the Cinno region.
You know, it just copies Cinno. Kalos copies the other regions.
Yeah. Man, people really like this
whole hop. It gathers in fields and
mountains and springs on the way.
They, they love that entry. Sido was so a trend setting with
that entry. Because everybody else says it
too. Because a Galar says the same
thing. A Lola just doesn't have Hoppip
at all. Come on.
Moving on to the Paldea region, they say this Pokémon is blown
across the vast distances by the wind.
It is unclear where the Hoppip of Paldea originally came from.
Wow, I'm just going to go out on a limb and, you know, don't wing
what I know about other Pokémon. I'm gonna guess that it came
from the moon. What?
Oh, I could say it drifted down from the moon.
To the wind, yeah, Moon. Wind the moon.
Wind.
Are you sure about that one, professor?
It's a hypothesis, so no. OK, all right.
I mean. I was like, do you have a better
guess? Well, they, I think they, they
blew from here right when they, they're, they're most prevalent
here. They just got on a really big
wind that took them all the way over there.
I mean, but who's to say? But who's to say that the they
didn't get blown here from a different place?
You know a. Professor, you're.
Like you're. Totally.
Right. But that's Chris.
Have you been to the moon? That you know what?
That's a good point. That's a good point, professor.
Yeah, maybe it's just full of hop hips.
And and Clefairy. Have you been to the moon and.
Wait, yeah. Wait, no.
Have you been to the moon? Hold on.
No, I mean I not recently, you know.
Huh. But what maybe, maybe I need to
go, Maybe we need to go investigate.
I think that's a good idea. No, like the moon, moon, not
like, not like, I mean. Not any more than you have.
What? How often?
How often do you go, professor? I mean the normal amount of
times that a human would go to the moon, Mr. Right.
Yeah, exactly that amount. That's how many times I've been
there. I mean.
We're not just talking about the Moss Deep Space Center, you
know. Yeah, I'm not talking about
those. And I'm not talking about the
Moon, which is a moonstone themed bar in Goldenrod City.
Right, like the moon, The moon up in the sky.
I got it right. Gray.
Lots of lots of Clefairy and Durant.
That too, Corbin. What's?
That Corbin said. The planet.
The moon. Yeah, I mean, that's, is that
what it is, Professor? Isn't it a moon?
Not a I'm not. It's a moon.
It is a moon. Is not a planet.
It's a moon and it is the moon. No, it's not a planet.
Sounds skeptical. I mean, I guess, listen, I,
I've, I've been to the moon, what, 00 times I've been to the
moon. Zero.
Yeah. Yeah, I mean that that's exactly
how many times I've been. What's on the moon?
I don't know. We should.
We should find out. Why you act like you've been to
the moon. Yeah, why are you kicking that
rock around? Yeah, why you pretending like
you haven't been to the moon? But it sounds almost like you're
implying passively that you have been no?
Why did you pick up that stick and or casually like hitting it
against tree is Mr. Curtis? No, I here, I'll put it down.
I'm sorry. I've dialed in professor.
Come on, what? What?
When in doubt, chew it out. Chew it out.
That's right. See what to say.
Chewing on So what would a cub chew scout do right, ma'am?
But ma'am, they would tell the truth, tell the.
Truth are chewing on a stick right now or no?
No, it's. Not exactly what showing off.
Wait, no, wait. He's eating the whole thing.
But it's not a little hard experience to come back out
crowd. He's just sliding that right To
what? He's not even.
I feel so much better about sharing that I, you know, that
was weighing on my chest. But you're right, I chewed it
out. It's so much easier.
You just inhabit. So for all you virtual students
at home, if you're ever unsure about something, just chew it
out. Eat the nearest thing.
Or Curtis's case, unhinge your jaw and swallow the the whole
stick. Actually don't do that.
I I don't advise that. That's not a good idea.
Yeah, put it on a T-shirt and swallow the whole stick.
Actually, you know, let's get some, let's get some student
artwork of Mr. Curtis eating. I don't want unhinging his jaw
and swallowing a stick. I really don't want that.
Don't think so. Maybe.
Maybe if he's wearing a Cub Chew uniform too.
They. Don't make him in my size.
Oh, I'm watching him in the cub chew.
You know what? If you send us any sort of art
of Mr. Curtis doing that, you owe U.S. financial compensation.
I'm just saying it. For the therapy for.
The therapy that I'm going to need to to see that.
OK, I was in the middle of Paldea region Poco.
Sorry, please, Mr. Curtis, don't interrupt him.
Please. Let's not get sidetracked here,
all right? Outside of cold regions, hot pip
can be found practically everywhere.
This is because the wind carries this species all over the world.
Everywhere. Right.
So who's to say they started here in the Jota region?
Also, maybe they are so they aren't used to the wind.
Maybe they are like so forced around by the wind because where
they're from there isn't any wind.
The moon. The moon.
I don't know what to do. Yeah, but oh, the moon, that's a
good theory. Yeah, they're like, oh jeez, oh,
this strange place with this, these forces pushing us around,
we don't even know. That's right, and they're also
very light too. Yeah.
You know, typically when you start off here in a on a new
planet, I mean a new region, you know, there, there's some
adjustment period there, so. You say that like did you say
planet? Mr. Curtis, you are not from a
different planet. Stop trying to fool Corbin and
scare the Curtis thinking you're an alien.
You're not alien. Mr. Curtis, I watch Dell, Fox
News, I'll believe anything. OK, OK.
That's true. I'm so sorry.
Yeah. I didn't mean to lead you
astray. Of course I am 100% human.
I've never been to the moon. And I I was born and raised in
the Canto region. By all three or four parents.
Can't Canto. Born and raised Yeehaw.
Canto Gang. No, I definitely grew up in the
Hohenn region, so I'm not sorry. I'm not part of the Canto gang.
Yeah, me and Curse are canto gang.
That's for I'll indoctrination professor.
It's pretty easy process. Oh God, what?
Why do you have? What do you Why did you grab a
knife? No, no, no, no.
You can't be indoctrinated. Canto, canto.
Blood runs thick. Who, who?
Who? Who?
OK, Was that was that a Cub Juice scout thing?
The Who who? No, is that?
Is that your hoot? Hoot call?
Are you? Trying to cub juice, that's what
it is. Man I miss Lex.
I miss Lex too. Forget how, like how long we've
been in class. I don't have Lex there to tell
us. I know.
OK, all right, so that does it for the regional Pokedex
entries. I have a unique Pokedex entry
here to read. It comes to us from Ash's
Pokedex. It says Hoppip, the Cotton Weed
Pokémon. This hopping Pokémon is light as
a feather and can be lifted by the gentlest breeze.
Or the OR the smallest patch of Velcro?
Is that right spirit? I can't.
I can't hear. Can you turn around, Mister
Curtis? Yeah.
Oh. There he.
Is yeah, look at him, look at he's, he's wriggling, he's he's
trying to get out. He's.
He's vibing. No, no, no.
He loves. He loves it.
Here, let me turn back around. Hold.
On he loves for the win. Mr. Curtis, he loves, he loves
it back there. Don't, don't worry.
OK, all right, so that does it for all the Pokedex entries.
I do have a an essay here that I printed out.
Oh, hey, oh, that's good. Mr. Curtis, bring the backpack
over here. I mean, it's, it's in one of
these pockets. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's right
over here. That's in this one.
No, it's not that one. OK.
Yes. Yes.
Hi, Spirit. Hi.
It's very adorable. OK, let's.
OK, Here it is. Got it.
Got it.
All right, so this comes to us from Theodore.
Oh, thank you, Theodore. As in essay.
Theodore. It starts.
It starts out very helpfully by saying hi, I wrote an essay on
Hop Hip and I hope you will read it in class.
Well, dreams do come true. Theodore 'cause look at this.
And then Theodore says. So here we go.
Hop Hip is a cute Pokémon. It has a pink body, two tiny
feet, a pair of yellow eyes and two green plant thingies on its
head that it uses as a propeller.
Fern hairs. Fern hairs, Sure.
This Pokémon weighs .5 kilograms and is .4 meters tall.
Its typing is plant and flying. Its egg group is a Fairy and
Plant. And except for cold regions, you
can find Hop Hip almost everywhere.
This is because it lets itself be blown by the wind.
Some people say that if many Hop Hip gather in fields and
mountains, the spring is going to come soon.
If pop hip notice the storm is coming, they tug each other's
leaves slash plants to not get blown away.
Sometimes it sticks its feet in the ground so it doesn't blow
away because it's so light .5 kilograms if you remember.
Sometimes a strong wind can blow it all the way to another
region. This was my essay on Hoppip.
I hope you had fun reading it and have a good day.
Professor Jacob, Mr. Curtis and cute baby boy Corbin.
Hey, hey, hey, I'm a grown 10. Year old Hey, that's a.
Professor. Are you raising your hand?
Yep, OK, I'm looking. I wasn't looking.
I was walking. I was walking in front of
everybody. Yes.
Corbin what's the? Question What is a plant type
Pokémon? Well, that's a regional thing.
Some people say grass type, some people say plant type.
They're okay. I didn't.
Yeah, sorry. Now of course, if you really
want to accurately describe. Shrub type.
Hop it. You would call it a fairy and
grass egg type is what you would be that.
That's the best way, as we all know, to identify a Pokémon is
by their egg group and not by their their typing, because
typing doesn't mean anything. I mean, we literally just talked
about a quote UN quote water type Pokémon that doesn't even
want to get wet. That's right.
So like. True.
Come on. So like, what does that even
mean? What does that even mean?
It doesn't mean anything. Right.
Hobbit is a grass and flying type, by the way.
Love the combo. Yeah, OK, so Theodore's essay
goes finishes by saying, by the way, my favorite bug type is
Pincer. There you go.
All right, whoa. All right.
Can I get a? Can I get a Gold Star?
Yeah, they also say bug types are the best, but, I mean, I
guess that's, you know, besides the point now, because you're
already giving them a Gold Star. Theodore, thank you so much for
that wonderful essay. You will, of course, be getting
extra credit for all of your hard work.
Mr. Curtis, who's throwing gold stars on the ground now?
Now, what does the Cub Chew Scouts handbook say about
littering Corbin? Is that a good thing or a bad
thing? It says only people who are
quitters do the litters. That's the other term all.
Right, okay so if you guys are okay with being a quitters then
you can litter if you want to. But don't do it.
I mean, what's wrong with being a quitter, Corbin?
Sometimes things are hard. Right, but you're a quitter at
life and you should quit life if you litter, that's what.
It means she is. Is that what it says?
Let me see this book. No, no, no, no, no.
I mean, that's not my interpretation on it.
Oh, OK. Only quitters are litters.
Is that what it was? No.
Can you say it again? Only quitters are people who
litters. Is that what he said the first
time, Mr. Curtis? I don't think it was.
I was I'm I'm existing in a few tape right now.
Great, great. Wow.
Yeah, he's really, he's really getting red.
Have you been drinking water, Mr. Curtis?
I'm, I'm, I'm just, I'm enjoying my time.
He drinks his Maple syrup. Do you know what that that would
really hit the spot right now. Actually, let me just go over to
this tree real quick and oh. Oh, he's fresh.
I don't think that's the kind of tree that makes SAP, Mr. Curtis.
I didn't even know you could drill into the truck.
That was so. Satisfied too.
Oh my God. There's nothing.
There's nothing quite like it when you get it right from the
source. That is, I'm going to vomit.
Oh my God. Anyways, to you virtual
students, if you would like to send us an essay, I think we've
already said it in in the lesson, the beginning of the
lesson, but you can send it to wwopokemon@gmail.com.
We are only going to be reading one essay per lesson going
forward, so make sure you get those essays in early, as early
as you can. Don't wait until we're about to
talk about Pokémon that you want to talk about, because then by
then it's too late. That's right.
OK. All right, so, Corbin, are we,
you've been, you're the one who's been leading us, right?
We we should be almost back at the yeah, at the at the school,
right. I mean, I mean, this could be a
one day, one lesson. Well.
Yeah, we're getting close. I mean, if I'm looking at the
map here again, I I kind of wanted.
To hit Mr. Curtis isn't doing. Well, Alex, I, I want to hit the
Alex for us first. You tell me we should just go
back. I mean, we're supposed to be
back by the end of the lesson, right?
That's what you said. All right, fine.
OK, I said all day. But you and I are saying end of
the lesson. So, all right, so we'll we'll
head after the lesson's wrapped up.
Maybe we'll double back and head back that way around that tree.
Yeah, yeah, that, that sounds. That sounds good.
Right, Mr. Curtis, you've been marking the trees on our way
back, right? No spirits was supposed to do
that. That's why spirits.
Spirits on the back backpacks. Reasoning for being on the back
changes, but yeah. Spirit, did you do it?
He's shaking his head No, his whole body.
Well, not head. He's not a head.
He's an old body. Shaking his whole body no.
Yeah, how is he supposed to mark trees?
Mr. Curtis, We told you to do it.
Right. We Yeah.
I, you know what? And I trusted Spirit.
I mean, you know what? It's OK.
It's OK.
It's part of my Cub shoot gout, Cub shoot Scout training to, to,
to, to, to figure this out. OK, All right.
So I can use the trajectory of the sun and then the moon's in
the eighth, the quadrant of the sky.
And I, I, I have an idea. I think we'll be Bill will be
back by the end of the lesson. I think we're.
OK, OK. All right.
Well, while you know what, while you do that, Corbin, I think I,
I have to test you guys. So I have a I have an assignment
for you today. Time for a quiz.
I'm so ready. Gonna pull out or put or put
away my pokedex and pull out my rotom notepad.
OK, Notepad, huh? No, Well, it's.
Woo. Yeah, there's no Internet, so
you can't. Do it.
I don't want it to. Quiz.
I want it. It's a Rotom notepad.
See. Well, you can enjoy the weather
Corbin, cuz we're not doing quiz, instead we're doing an
instructional video. That how what we have we have no
we Where's the camera? Oh, we brought one, right?
Oh, Spirit does have that. Thank you, Spirit.
Yeah. But yeah, thank you.
We do have a. Camera how?
How are we going to watch it back?
We don't have ATV. Mr. Curtis brought on TV.
Mr. Curtis, do you have ATV in that backpack?
Yeah, it's in the backpack here. Oh, that's right, So heavy.
Here, let me hold on. Let me take it off real quick.
OK. Well, he's going through the
effort of unfolding this TV. OK, do you, I mean, how are we
supposed to power the TV? No, I've got.
Oh, you do you, power brick. I've got the the pedal, the
pedal bike generator set up that we that we had when we were in
the Articuno cave. Yeah.
Oh, right. OK.
All right. And that was all in the
backpack, right? Right.
It's pretty cool that you're flexible.
You can. Follow all that up and that's
wild. It's a genius design.
OK, I'm going to read the instructional video topic while
he's setting all this how to. OK, so here's this is what you
guys got you. I would like an instructional
video on how to prevent your hop it from being blown away.
Pretty standard. This should be easy.
This is basically the only thing the poke it out.
I'm sorry. I pinched my finger.
I didn't. Oh, you got to watch out those
folds when you get your fingers. All right.
I have the rubric here as well, so you guys know what you need
to do. First, you must include
information that we learned in Class 2.
You must demonstrate an understanding of unique
attributes and abilities of the Pokémon.
Three. The presentation must be at
minimum 5 minutes long. Good luck with that.
Focus primarily on the topic assigned, but you can agree with
other things other fun things that of.
Course, of course, of course. They really pat out that time.
But don't, you know, don't just like work for it, right?
Don't just don't just like, you know, say the same thing over
and over again. And then for the final point is
determined by your partner by answering the question, how do
you rate your partner's participation in this project?
All right, I'm gonna take a spirit and then we're gonna go.
And you're gonna go, I don't know, collect some berries or
something? All right, guys, we'll stay
here. Well.
You guys work on this, let me know.
I don't know, like send up a flare when you're ready for me
to come back. That's pretty dramatic, but
okay. Okay, Professor, I got the
camera ready. Corbin, you ready?
I'm ready. Where did you go?
Born to be dramatic. Where did where did the Curtis
go? Where did you go with?
That tree, how did you get up there?
Oh. Curtis, get sample over your
mouth. We got a video to record.
Come on, let's go. Okay, all right, come on,
Spirit. Professor.
Professor, Professor, Professor. Hello.
Okay, I'll come down from the tree now, all right.
Professor, did you find him up there?
She's. Finished the video a while ago.
Oh, there he is, Professor. Hey, how are you?
We finished already for you. I got to.
Cut through the Bush like that's crazy.
The wilderness is crazy. Oh, I'm so sorry.
I should have given you. I shouldn't have given you a
machete or something, Professor. It's a good thing you have a Cub
Chew scout to lead the way. Well, I did I.
Almost got lost there for you. You're gone for a while.
I lost. I lost 20 minutes.
Spirit's gone, Spirit. Spirit.
It wasn't. He wasn't going through it to
me. He floated away.
Oh my God, he's gone, Professor. Oh man.
I don't know, I it's this seemed pretty natural, right?
I mean, and also like kind of he kind of let us down by not
marking the trees. So like, good riddance.
That was on Mr. Curtis, not him. Oh man, why should he have to
suffer for the sins of Mr. Curtis, huh?
He's not suffer. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
He's not suffering. I'm suffering.
It's because he's not here. It's not like we took had him a
champ send him to space. OK.
All right. Well you trying to say rocket
suffering? I didn't say that that's a
different situation. Rocket slimming is best.
Like you implied, like Rocket was suffering so we didn't send
him to space. OK, I'm just saying.
All right, I got AI got all these cuts and scratches on me.
Do you guys, do you guys at least finish?
We did finish our video I. Did but but your your health
comes first. Professor, please come over
here. Let me patch up.
On. The bike.
We gotta go. Hop on the bike.
Let's do this. OK, let's go.
I'm going to go ahead and put this disk in and here we go.
Hello, everyone. What's going on?
Welcome back to another awesome tutorial.
Hello. Hello, hello.
You're going to get learned today.
It's me. We're learning time.
We're joined out here in the wilderness today, and today
we're going to teach you how to prevent your hop hip from
floating away. Oh.
No. Oh yeah, don't let my hop it
float away. What do I do?
Oh my gosh, I'll tell you so #1 before you bring out your hot
pimp, you need to secure the area by finding an anchor point.
What can I use as an anchor point?
Well, honestly, you can use anything along as it's sturdy
and it's not going anywhere. If you're in the city, you can
use a traffic light. If you're out in the woods, you
can use a tree, you can use a bench, a trash can, even a rock.
You could theoretically use anything that has some weight to
it and that's tied down and, you know, starting up, that's not
going to go anywhere. Sure, sure, sure.
Could you? Could you maybe embed a pole or
a stick in the ground? You could, you could.
So if you can't find a good anchor point, you're somewhere
out in the open, you know, you might be able to find a stick,
you might have a like a little pole, a locking stick, something
you can embed into the ground that you could bring with you is
great, by the way, working on a product for that.
That'd be kind of cool, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Maker, I'm saying. We could maybe stick another
one, spread some silk in between the two.
Get yourself. No, no, that's weird.
Alright, alright. Just one Shoal, just one pole.
OK. So I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry. OK, so Step 2 then you need to
work on clearing the ground around your anchor point.
Why do you need to do that, Corbin?
Well, you gotta clear it out that way.
It's. Hopping us somewhere to grab
with its little baby nubbin feet, you know what I mean?
It's gotta be secure. Feet sees they grab so hard to.
Oh, gotta grab something. Alright, tell me about.
Actually, no, it's my turn. Step 3.
Alright, so step three is wait for little to no breeze for
added safety and yeah. Just wait, OK?
Safety is key, as always. And then when you're done
waiting, you step. You do step.
Four, tell me that's when you want to bring out all your hop
hip and you know, be ready so to grab their leaf so that they
don't float away by accident. That's right, that's right.
If you have multiple hop Hip, it's good to kind of let them
kind of link together with their leaves like a chain.
But either way, at least for the first one that you bring out,
which you recommend bringing out one at a time, you definitely
want to have that first hop hip. You want to have that leaf
grabbed so you know it's not going.
So once you have that, we'll talk about Step 5.
Miss Curtis, tell them about step.
Five. That's right, you gotta gather
them all up around your central anchor point so that they link
to each other and grip the anchor point and grip the open
ground with their feet around the anchor point.
Boom, baby. That way they're nice and secure
on the ground. You want as many connection
points as possible. OK, leaf to leaf, hop up to
anchor point, hop up to ground, hop up two other hop.
That's right. The most the most amount of ways
that they can grab each other like a like a lattice structure
spreads the load across and then keeps all your hop hips as safe
as possible. OK, that's right.
What do you do next, Corbin? And then after that, step 6 is
gonna be ready to grab any loose hop hips if they happen to float
away by accident. So just be alert, you know, kind
of don't, don't just play around on your phone, especially if
it's a windy day. Be on alert and see any hop
hips. Make sure the other ones stay
anchored down and you try to catch the first, the one Rd. hip
hop away, pop hip. Sorry, something out.
But Corbin, I mean, that's great and all if we have a central
location, but what if I what if I need to travel?
What if I can't stand around all day watching on my hop?
That's a good point. So let me tell you about the
final step. So step 7.
If you have a single hop hip and you want to keep it with you and
you want to be mobile, one thing to recommend is that instead of
using a central stationary income point, we recommend tying
a string or something sturdy like a robe and secure it to
your belt for maximum security and then tight interact soon.
No, no weirdo. And then you tie that string or
whatever to the hop hips leaf and to your belt.
That way it can walk with you. It's still staying secure.
It's got a good mobile anchor point and it's always by your
side, which is what you want out of any Pokémon.
Am I right or am I? Right.
That's right. That's right.
Thank you. Alright guys, thanks for tuning
in. We love you and appreciate you.
Thanks for an awesome fun video and hopefully we'll see you in
the next one. On the count of three, Corbin
our motto. 0123 And now you know, what did you get that,
professor? Wait, the video's still going.
You guys are just staring at the at the screen.
I can't. I didn't have time to edit that
out. Oh oh.
Wow, you're still just staring looking.
Good. OK.
I got to stop. I got to stop peddling.
I got, I got to stop peddling. Oh, OK, yeah, hey, after that we
just pretty. Close to 5 minutes there guys.
After after that we just stared at the screen for a couple more
minutes. It's not worth that sitting.
Here, why were you staring at the screen for so long?
It was a, it was a create creative choice by Mr. Curtis.
He just, I just rolled it. Yeah.
Yeah, we wanted to make sure we got all 5 minutes in there.
You were close, you were close. You you were at like 4 minutes
and 50 seconds. Oh well, you stopped it too
early Mr. Curtis, get back on the bike for the last Test.
OK. All right, hold on.
All right. No, no, no, it's fine.
I'm going to go ahead and give you guys the full marks for
that. Yeah, I'm just right here in my
notes. close enough, close enough.
Because like, let's be honest, it's pretty hard to write to
talk for 5 minutes solely about Hop it when we don't really know
the the poke eccentric pretty much like it flies away a lot.
So things I liked. I did enjoy the I did like that
you guys mentioned that you want to have multiple hop hip because
they like to link together when strong breezes come, you want it
because it does. It does say that it likes to
grab the ground with its feet. So that's good.
You know, making sure it has a available place to do that very
good. Let's see here what else you
said. Wait for little to no breeze.
What is? Yeah.
What is you don't want to send out?
You don't want to send out your hop hip and have there be like a
heavy wind and that way it's you know you want to when you send
it out, you want it to be as chill as possible so you can
just kind of grab onto it easily.
If it's a windy day and you throw out your hop hip, it might
just float away the second it leaves the Pokeball.
You got to you, you want to make sure it's safe and securely
anchored before the wind comes, right?
So. Right.
I get, I, I get that. I, I was just kind of assuming
that the Hop Hip was just out, was just always out and that we
didn't have an option of it being not out.
Well. Well, before you bring your
indoor hop hip to the outside. Yeah, I mean, sure, that that
makes sense. I'm I'm fine with that.
That's right. Now, why would you you're
talking about if you're on the go, right?
You said tie it to its leaf. So tie a string to its leaf.
So instead of having like a single anchor point like a tree
or you know, whatever that's mobile, I'm like, if you want to
be on the go, instead of tying it to a stationary thing like a
rock or a tree or a bench or a table, you could just tie it to
like your belt or tie it around your hand.
And that way it's kind of like a leash.
It just kind of goes. Everywhere.
I thought you said tie it to its leaf.
Well, you tie. You tie one end to your hand or
your backpack or your belt, and then you tie the other one to
its leaf. Yeah, I don't know.
The leaf seems pretty fragile. I'm not sure.
Well, the tie something to it. Well, the the reasoning behind
that is the hop hips they grab each other by the leaf they.
Grab each other with that too, so.
It's how they secure themselves. Right.
It's not just loosely around its little baby foot or anything
like that. It's, I mean, they're pretty
their. Leaf is their Leaf is grabbing
it. Too.
I see what you're saying. So they yes they they do link
their leaves with other. Right.
So it's added security because it's actually physically
gripping it. It's not just it's not something
that I tied, it's attached to it.
It's also it's attached to its leaf and it's gripping it.
OK, OK. I mean, it can also grab it with
its hand, but whatever. It's a nub.
You're comparing that to a leaf. Come on.
Yeah, it's got Listen. Has to have hands for a reason.
Hands. Yeah, but those, yeah, that's to
play Patty cake. OK, the Patty cake playing.
Come on picture, hop it playing. Patty cake.
All right, I'm going to be guys. Full marks.
Good job. Keep it.
Up all right. Now it's time for one of you to,
I guess, I don't know, walk into the woods?
Or maybe just cover your ears. Or something.
I'm just gonna cover. Oh, oh, he's OK.
Bye. Here he goes.
I would say I'd give him probably a 3.98.
He was very good. He didn't do anything wrong.
And I, I, I think the work that he put in was, was well
deserved. So can I?
Can I get you to round it up to A4?
3.99's the best I'll give you. Like, So what?
OK, but you have to justify. You said he did great.
You have to justify why he's not getting a perfect score.
He did drown a Squirtle and and has killed countless spinner
racks. I can't give anybody a full 4.
We can't judge somebody from their history.
Come on, Corbin, come on. Hey, be like, be like a Hop Pimp
and turn a new leaf. I'll give him a four, but don't
tell him. I I never do.
I never. Do OK.
All right. Cool.
Sounds good. Great.
All right, come back. Mr. Curtis.
Hello. Over here.
All right, Let's come back now. Yeah, you come back.
I'm. I'm leaving now.
Bye. OK, well now I'm just here by
myself for the. Recording.
I'm back. I'm back.
OK, Court, Mr. Curtis is back. Yes, yes.
All right. Mr. Curtis, what are you giving
Court I? Just want to say whatever was
said while I was gone, I've not been convicted of anything so.
That's a weird thing to say, Mr. Chris.
In fact, sounds like something somebody would say that has a
guilty conscience. That's right.
I don't know what you're talking about.
OK, So what time to read? Hit me with the.
That's right. And then also, I don't know what
you're talking about. OK, so Corbin.
Yes, out of four, how was he yet?
Did he, did he contribute? Yes.
Did he bring the heat? Yes.
Did he help me peddle and generate electricity, though?
I mean, I mean, I mean, that was kind of a big thing, though.
OK. But like there's that's that's
A1 seater. How?
How is he going to help you? I mean, we could have traded it
off. I mean, look how look how I'm
sweating through my second jacket right now.
Look at this. How am I supposed to go home?
You know, I, I got to go home and wash and everything I tell
you. What?
Maybe he didn't. Maybe he didn't, you know, you
know, offer to help you out, but you also didn't ask him to.
That, you know what? That's true.
I can't hold that against him. I'll give him a four, Professor.
Yay. Look at me.
Look at me mending bridges. Court Carver, you come back now.
Come. Back.
OK, yo, what's up guys? All right.
Now I won't disclose what you guys, what scores you gave each
other, even though you both gave each other fours I.
Won't say. Oh.
But yeah, good job, full marks, perfect scores.
Everybody give up the great work.
And that's going to do it for today's lesson.
Now, I can't help but notice we are still out here in the woods.
Corbin, what has gone wrong? I'm a little turned around here
for a second. I think once we go past that
tree, the one over there that should have been marked, I
think, I think we'll be back near the classroom within the
next 10 minutes. So we'll wrap it up and we'll be
back in the classroom in 10 minutes.
We'll be good. To go OK, all right, well, I
guess I'll I guess I'll do the wrap up things then.
All right, so that's it for the the lesson on Hop Hip.
Does anybody know who we're talking about next week?
Hip Hop. No, no.
Is it just sidui? It's not just the GI Very good,
Mr. Curtis. Everybody laugh.
How funny that is.
Now Corbin, do you have a real guess it?
Was a real guest. Is it Tortera?
No, it's not. You really want to talk about
that, that line, don't you? Love that line.
It's pretty, it's a pretty good. Well, we're almost there.
We're almost there. It's it's after Hop Hip, right?
Yeah, that's how we normally do it.
It's the evolved form of Hop Hip.
Oh, oh, OK. Is it?
Professor, just tell me. Just tell me what it is.
I can't wait any longer. Is it Rillaboom?
Do you think Rillaboom evolves from a from a hop hip?
I don't know because I've never taken this full course.
I mean, I saw, I saw the, the beat, the the energy, the the
music flowing through that Hop Hip earlier so.
Hey, it wasn't just that Hop Hip.
He was spirit and he had a lot of it.
Now he's gone, He's gone. Yeah, now he's out living the
life that he deserves. Good for skipping, good for
spare. Next week we are learning about
Skip Loom. Does he evolve?
Oh, skip loom. That's right, all loom, loom.
Skip Loom. Skip.
To I don't know something about that that that the name it just
I don't like it makes. Yeah, it it really does loom
over you, doesn't it? Yeah.
Thank you. That's all I was hoping for.
OK, so if these students out there have any questions for me,
hopefully by the time that we we get back to the classroom, I'll
have I'll have a chance to read my Gengar mail.
You can send us a question, an essay of, I don't know, just
some nice words. If you, if you feel like it, to
wwopokemon@gmail.com. If you look in our description,
there's a link to a bunch of links on different places to
find us. You know the the flying Pokémon

We've been posting a lot on TikTok and Instagram, a lot of
good stuff there. Yeah, but one of the best things
that you can find there is a link to our Patreon, isn't?
