Hello there, and welcome to the world of Pokémon.
My name is Professor Jacob, and thank you so much for attending
this lecture on Pokémon biology. Joining me here in the classroom
today is Mr. Curtis. Mr. Curtis, I got to say, big
props. Big props for you.
You worked all weekend. So hard the.
Hole in the ground in the in the classroom fix.
I got to say I don't even notice the difference like it is.
It is perfect. It is one to one.
It looks exactly as it did. Look at my hands.
Look at my splinters. Oh my dear.
It's this. Your finger's broken, Mr.
Curtis. It don't worry about that one.
It's. Taking it off.
We could just pop. We could just pop that one back
in the socket. Don't come look back in.
Oh, that's gross. If you could have done that the
whole time, why didn't you just? Oh my God, why did you?
Wait till we were recording to. Why did you do it in front?
Of us, the students are cringing, almost.
It wasn't. It wasn't, it wasn't that big of
a deal. OK, so.
So it was. It was a great it.
Seems like it was it was a. Huge deal, Mr. Kurz, a huge
deal. Regardless, thank you.
You did great work Go you should go see the nurse at some point,
not right now. We have a.
We have a lesson to. Do I would never leave class for
my own health and safety. Never.
We know also joining us here in the classroom is our young
trainer and training, Corbin. Corbin, how are you doing?
Hey, what it is, what it do? Glad to be here with you.
What's going on? Don't be Ryman.
Oh, sorry, don't be. Don't you be Ryman.
You are still. With.
Everyone, it's just, it's bad timing.
Oh crap. I I walked right into that one.
Honestly, that one, that one's my fault.
So, Corbin, how, how was your last week, man?
Huh. You've been.
You've been good. It's been good, Yeah.
I've been getting some new clothes.
It's getting a little bit colder, so I've been getting
some clothes, been getting some. I mean, yeah, it'd be a little
shopping. I did.
I knew that I I thought that was a new jacket.
Yeah, and I did go to Spirit Tomb of Halloween to try to get
some like, you know, different, like, like not clothes, but
like, you know, different stuff for Halloween.
Different little like skulls and crowbats and other little spooky
things to have outside of my my dorm that I that I share with
Gordon the Cadabra who dresses as Mr. Ryan OK, I like I like
that you're getting prepared for Halloween into the spirit.
Yeah. Oh, I'm excited.
It's in a couple weeks. Can't wait.
Yeah, it's it's coming up. It's coming up.
We got, I got a big lesson planned for that one, so.
I also think tomorrow is a pretty big day, but I'm not
really sure why. Oh.
Well, is it? Yeah, I think so.
Something about a legend. Oh, something about some
letters. Oh, that that no, Corbin, it's a
it's. A and ZI.
Know what you're talking about? There's a tomorrow.
There's a pizza restaurant that is releasing their new legendary
pizza. It's the legends.
The Legends. The Legends, the.
Legends yeah, it is Pokémon Theme 2.
It is the Pokémon Legends so. It's OK, I'll be I'll be taking
a bite out of. That for sure, yeah.
Hey Corbin, why don't you stream yourself with Pokémon Legends?
How about you do that? Yeah, Legend ZA.
Yeah, you guys can catch me on the YouTube streaming some
Legend ZA the day it comes out, which is tomorrow.
Which is watch him eat some of that delicious cheese.
I'm not gonna be playing a video game, I'll be eating pizza on
stream. All right, Definitely.
Everybody seems confused. Everybody's looking at me
confused. I don't know why.
I don't get it. OK, so hey, great introduction
to everybody. Really nailed it this time.
Does anybody know what Pokémon we're gonna be talking about
this week? Because this is the classroom
where we learned about Pokémon, all right?
And so we've talked way too much.
We gotta be learning. All right, enough talking.
More learning. So does anybody know?
I'm here. Yeah, you are.
He's Curtis is here. Mr. Curtis is here.
Corbin, are you here? I'm ready to here, OK?
I'm ready to here. Attendance.
Attendance is done. Now what?
Vote Keep on 100. Percent attendance.
What token are we learning about this week?
This. Is this is joy?
Right. OK.
We got a lot of things coming at me, Mr. Curtis.
No, it's not. This is Joy Corbin.
It is a little electric guy, but I think you said Joltic and no,
it's not Joltic. Is it token tomorrow?
It's not, Oh my God, don't even bring up token tomorrow please.
Don't. Is it muscle minus or plusle or
muscle and plusle and mine? Is it?
Minon and Plusle. That's what I said.
Is it them? Yeah, it's weird.
You have some. Your nose is bleeding, Curtis.
Mr. Corbin, is it? Is it?
Is it more Porco? It's just Corbin.
No, Mr. Corbin. 'S good Mr. The Mr's title of
respect you have to earn from the Mr. Mime Council, OK.
Yeah, sure, sure. OK, So no, I'm just going to go
ahead and say it. We're learning about Ella Kid
this week. We have previously learned about
what Ella Kid evolves into, which is electrode.
Wait, no, no, wrong. Voltorps dummy Voltorps first.
Cut that out. Cut that out.
Porsche cut that out. No farts.
Porsche cut that out. We've already talked about the
Pokémon that Ella kid evolves into, which is elective us.
We all remember that lesson, right?
Yeah, let's reminisce a little bit.
OK, enough of that. So, but this time we're going to
be learning about Ellicott is Corbin, have you seen Corbin?
Hey, Corbin. Corbin.
Corbin, have you seen Ellicott? Hey, between you and me, have
you seen an Ellicott? Why are you asking me like we're
looking for one? Just just wondering if you maybe
see one running around. I mean, I, Annette, the
secretary, the Dunsparse had an electabuzz that she used to
charge some of her, you know, devices up at the front desk.
But I mean, I've seen that one, you know, buzzing around,
buzzing around here and there. But that's really it.
That's really the only electabuzz I've seen him or
sorry Ellicott I've seen in person.
You know, more and more often you, you have seen the Pokémon
that I'm talking about. And I got to say, Corbin, it
really takes the wind out of my sails.
Yeah, I like being the first person to show you a Pokémon.
I'm I'm a learned boy. If you could be less worldly and
and knowledgeable. Corbin.
Less Pokémon, that would be great.
Well if it makes you feel any better, I've never seen a Magby
or a mill tank or a blissy. Why?
Why no? That's an interesting order that
you put it in, Corbin. No, no, serious.
Like there's a lot of Jodo Pokémon I've never seen before.
I mean, not honestly, not that many because you've we don't
have that many left. Well, I don't know that I've
seen any of the ones left. I mean, granted I don't remember
them all at the top of my head, but.
You did, you did just kind of list off all of them in the in
the order that we're about to. Learn well.
Listen, I have seen Ella Kid in passing very briefly, but it
would be great to look at another.
One Thank you. OK, that's all I needed.
That's all I needed to feel like I was important again.
I. Want to see it right?
OK, give. Me.
Your Ella kid Here's here's an elegant.
Whoa, he's a cute little guy. Look at.
Him hey buddy he's cute oh man he's he's starting to nod off
already that's. What's wrong?
Oh, no, professor, it seems like.
Seems like he's a little discharged at the moment.
Oh no, that's. Wake up, I'm trying to.
Look at you and describe you. Wake up.
I think, did I forget to feed him last night?
Guys, I'm a bad Pokémon trainer. I'm a really bad Pokémon
trainer. No.
What's the deal? Give him some Poppins or
something. No, he doesn't eat Poppins.
What? OK, give him some grits.
Do you still have those grits on your desk from last?
Week No, I clean What? No.
From last week? No, I cleaned them off.
They've been gone for a long time.
OK, well Mr. Curtis would have eaten if he just asked.
He likes one week old grits. Yeah, I know.
I love some good chewy grits. Some slimy, gooey, gooey grit.
He says the slimier and gooey are the better.
That's the way I like. It So what do we feed this kid
Well, here's the idea. What if he's just losing energy
and listen, listen, he has the perfect little prongs there for
an outlet. He's the perfect size.
He's only a couple feet tall. Hear me out.
If he's not, if he's not feeling himself, I say we just do the
safest option possible, which is I think.
We send spew feed into some. No, we stick the Ella kid in
that socket over there. How about that one?
That one? That one looks like the right
size. Yeah, yeah, I forgot we had that
giant Ella kid size outlet in the wall.
You know what I mean? That's probably what it's for.
I go ahead and jump in there, see what happens.
I mean, listen, OK, Is is that OK?
Ella, kid, you good with that? Just gotta ask first guys.
He's shaking his head right now, sure.
But he's but he's starting to pass out.
You got to do something. Come on, buddy.
Here we go. Ready.
Alright, I'm going to throw you in here in 321.
I just want to make sure he's ready for the juice that he's
going to get. All right, 321.
Oh gosh, that was a big oh Oh my.
Are you OK, Corbin? I almost got a light.
There liquored and everything. That was crazy.
That was, I can only imagine the power draw that is.
Yeah, wow. Look at Ellicott though.
Face, he is beaming with joy. Look at that smile.
He kind of like dancing everybody here too.
Yeah, he's like moving his arms back and forth.
He's still in the socket though, but he is just eating that up.
I mean, is it good? Can I get a?
Little taste. No, Corbin.
No. No, no, no.
No. No, no I don't.
I don't think that's. That socket is not Corbin sized,
it's. It's delicate.
Delicate side, That's right. There's one on the other side of
the room. That's Corbin.
Sized. That's fine.
It's probably not safe anyways. Elicate we make a good team
together. High 5 buddy.
Corbin Believe it or not, Corbin, it's probably not a good
idea for you to get it all up. He was.
Fully charged up. Oh my gosh, I can't feel.
I can't feel anything. I'm pinching my leg right now
and I don't even feel it. You can't feel.
Anything do you feel? Do you feel this, Corbin?
Nope. Oh wow.
Gee, you do it again. Yeah, hold on.
Let me just get a little. Nope, no.
No nose is. Bleeding, but I don't feel a
thing. Wow, Professor.
Hey, this is pretty good. We may need to shock shock him
more often. Hey.
Bring that tie rode back in cracks knuckles, I can't feel
anything anymore. Yeah, that's not good.
We don't want that. OK.
All right.
So, Corbin, I don't think you've described the Ella kid yet.
So if you could do that real quick and then we can move on
with the lesson. Yellow outlet with arms and
legs. Well, all I see now is his feet.
Seat. It's a plug.
Sorry, not an outlet plug. All I see is his feet sees now.
You only see is only his like the top part of his head that
Corbin. No, he was about his whole, his
whole it's OK. So he has a body, right?
He has like a circular or Well yeah tell that to spirit tomb
Gengar on other new ghost types. That's why I said most Corbin.
OK, so he has like a circular body with little baby feets and
he's got long arms. He's got like black.
He's got black like little like rings around each arm, 2 on each
side. And he does have like a little
like, it looks like a little like electric symbol or or
something on this. I can't see it from here.
Yeah, it was like a little electricity symbol on his.
Like a lightning torso. There, Yeah, a little lightning
ball, that's what they call it. That's what they call it.
That means that means that they tried to get him with the
Killing Curse, but he lived. That's right.
What's that from? It's from real life Corbin.
OK, that's I didn't realize was a real thing.
That's from, that's from that's that is ancient Hesuian
folklore. I haven't learned about that
yet, but anyway, so yeah, he's so that's his body.
And then he has these little like like the male plug part
that you plug into an outlet, the little prongs, he has that,
but it is inside the wall. Currently inside the wall.
Current. Currently get it current.
So yeah. And that's pretty much it.
He's very, very, very simple Pokémon.
Very cute. He is vibing.
He is again. He has not stopped grinning.
He's loving the electricity. There goes the lights again.
What the heck? Yeah, that's weird.
He's a flicker for half a second.
That was weird anyways, but that's it.
That's pretty much an elegant in a nutshell.
Yeah, good job, Corbin. OK, let's go ahead.
Let's move on to the Pokedex entries.
If that's if everybody's OK with that.
Well, you know what? Just.
Gonna leave them in there. Yeah, I think we should.
I think we should leave. Wait, do we give them a name?
Elias. Elias OK, Mr. Curtis, do you
have a better name? Nope, he doesn't sparky.
How about strike? Now hold on.
OK, here. Wait a second, wait a second,
wait a second. Mr. Curtis, I think this is this
is this is ground breaking for Mr. Curtis because normally when
we ask him to name a Pokémon, he normally says something like
Dwight or Steven or Karen or something like that.
This is this is a name that works for Ella kid and Electro
type Pokémon Sparky. I think we should, I think we
should encourage him. I think we should use this name.
How about plug? Plug, it is all right.
Plug, go ahead. Keep.
Keep chilling in there, you know, keep chilling and.
Charging Bud. Chilling and charging T-shirt.
We'll we'll take a look at you later on in the lesson I'm sure
probably won't forget. All right, let's read some
pokedexing trees. The first one here says it
rotates its arms to generate electricity, but it tires
easily, so it charges up only a little bit.
That's probably why he was so tired.
It's not because I forgot to, you know, feed him last night.
It's because. Charge him because he he was.
Already rotated his arms a bunch and he was just tired.
That's probably what it is. That's not.
Couldn't have been you at all. Yeah, I don't think it was.
I'm pretty sure. I probably fed him.
I think like, I probably fed him probably maybe I got a lot of
Pokémon. Guys, OK, It's hard to take care
of all of them. OK, brag about it.
Jealous. Are you jealous you don't have
any? I am because I don't have any.
Like, hey, Mr. Curtis, this guy doesn't have any Pokémon.
Yeah. All right, believe me, look at
this guy over here doesn't have any Pokémon.
Not till you pass the class and get your license Corbin soon.
In a few weeks. No, not quite, no.
All right, the next question there, the next entry here says
even in the most vicious storm, this Pokémon plays happily if
Thunder rumbles in the sky. Dang dude, man, you know, little
plug over here would he's it looks like he's on cloud 9, but
he would be even happier if there was a storm right now.
If there was a storm cloud, the. Storm cloud, yes.
Yeah, yeah, like it must be the just like the increase in
electricity in the air is what does it.
Yeah, right. Yeah, Well, it looks pretty
clear. We're outside right now.
So yeah, sorry bud, just have to do with the socket.
Again, he's still very happy, so I think this is fine.
The next entry double s down on this and says it loves violent
Thunder. The space between its horn
flickers bluish white when it's charging energy.
We call those horns, huh? Yeah, you know, I think I think
they'd be called horns. Sure.
I think they definitely look like horns.
OK. I mean, they they're weird
horns. No offense.
Sorry. No pay plug.
No offense. Sorry about.
That yeah, don't be mean. So like they're not antenna?
It's I. I just thought they were ears.
They could be ears. I mean, yeah.
Whatever you want them. To be honestly, honestly, I like
the ears idea. They have a little hole in them
and that would kind of make sense for why they have a hole
in them is because they're ears. That's interesting, Mr. Curse
not for plugging purposes. No, I mean, but it works.
We've proven it works. We've proven that it works.
Okay. The next entry is from the Hoenn
region. It says Elekid stores
electricity in its body. If it touches the metal and
accidentally discharges all its built up electricity, this
Pokémon begins to swing its arms in circles to recharge itself.
Nice. Yeah, he just couldn't do it,
Just couldn't swing his arms fast enough.
I. Guess he was too tired.
Too tired this time around. Couldn't get those arms swinging
so. Before I some of those, before I
hop on my bike or go on a run, I will swing my arms about to
charge up too. Yeah, you can't really get
yourself going. Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I like that. Other people think it's cool too
because they take pictures. When I do it, I'm like.
Look at this idiot. This little idiot.
She's good. With this guy.
OK Oh God, he's crying. It's OK, Corbin, Don't don't
feel like that. OK, OK, we all, we all have ways
to improve ourselves and you, you just need to Start Stop
swinging your arms. Around No, no, no I think no, no
no. I think it's cuz he's not
swinging his arms enough. Oh, you need to see.
A practicing. Professor, yeah, he was swinging
and you can, you can work with plug over there and get really
just, you know, you start getting real good at swinging
your arms around cuz it's clear a plug is not good at swinging
their arms around cuz otherwise they'd have a lot of energy
right now. Exactly.
That's true. OK, so let's see here.
That does it for the Hohen region.
Let's move on to the Sino region.
The first entry here says it generates electricity by
whirling its arms. However, it can't store the
energy it makes. OK.
So just I guess it's just constantly district.
That's so weird though because a lot of other entries says it
discharges all of it's built up energy if it touches metal.
So like what's the what's the answer here?
Can it not store energy or can it store energy?
It's it's really a question for the scholars.
None of which are here in the room right now.
No. All right.
Well, certainly not me and Corbin.
You, professor, you may have the answers that we seek.
Let's see here. Let's see here, let's see here.
It can't store the energy. It may.
Let's read the next entry. Maybe that will answer.
OK, OK. A weak electric current flows
between it's horns. OK sticking a hand in there
shocks the unwary. So it's constantly discharging,
right? It makes energy, but it's
constantly discharging it if between it's horns and but it
also, if it touches metal, it's a faster discharge.
Faster like kind of like immediate discharge, right?
Yeah, Yeah, I made it work. I made it work.
There, there you go. So that's all for the center
region. There is a new one here from the
UNOVA region. OK.
It says spinning it's arms around to generate electricity
makes the area between it's horns shine bright blue.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. There is nothing new from the
Callus region though. A blue, a blue lightning, a blue
electricity, a blue current is unique.
I wonder why it's blue? What makes it blue?
It must be, I guess isn't. It like fire, isn't it like fire
where it's like it's hotter if it's blue or something?
I mean, so maybe I'm wrong, so I shouldn't be saying this, but
when we quote UN quote see electricity, we're not seeing
electricity. What we're seeing is the like
the, the, the atmosphere getting burned right or oxidized.
I. Suppose the formation of of
plasma, you know, between the the arching boards.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, so.
Learning so much. Is this chemistry?
I mean I guess wouldn't it just, I mean I guess it is just a a
hotter plasma cuz it's blue instead of yellow.
It's gotta be, it's gotta be hotter plasma.
That was exactly my thought. Too.
Yeah, heard about it. How you like your plasma.
I like it hot. And that's what goes on the
T-shirt. Facts.
There's nothing new from the Callos region, but let's move on
to the Alola region. See how freaking amazing their
Ella kids are? Yeah, yeah, the better
everybody's. They have like green
electricity. Yeah, ours is rainbow
electricity, actually. Anyways, so the first one here
says when it's in a house, electrical outlets serve as its
baby bottles. It sucks down electricity.
Yeah. All right, all.
Right sucks down electricity, it sucks.
It sucks that electricity yeah, so that's what's doing right.
Okay, cool Google. So there is precedent.
We didn't. We didn't just randomly endanger
a Ella kid's life by shoving it into the outlet.
See, I knew it would work. Yeah, good, good, good, thinking
Corbin. The next entry here says this
Pokémon is constantly fighting with Toge Damaru that tries to
steal its electricity. It's a pretty even match.
You know, I was just thinking, are we maybe enabling Ella kids,
you know, poor health decisions by sticking him in the outlet
like this? Because if, like a natural
eloquid generates his electricity by spinning its arms
and we, you know, are babying our eloquid by just sticking it
in an outlet so it can, you know, suckle on the electricity,
you know, without having to work for it.
Are we just, you know, enabling it to become lazy and
overweight? I mean, Curtis, have you
considered that maybe this is a tiny little baby Eloquid as an
Ella baby, and maybe we're teaching it and have the
strength. We're teaching it where to go
and where to suck to get the energy it needs.
But that's that's the way of nature.
What if this little baby Ella kid was out and wasn't in the
house where it could get an outlet?
It's either spin your arms and survive or don't.
Or suck an outlet. Yeah, suck an outlet, Mr. I'm.
Not saying that as an insult to people.
Dude, suck an outlet. Suck an outlet.
I guess you're right. I guess you're right, Professor.
It's suck an outlet taps app and it's a real it's a real cup
calling the a pot. Wait, what was it a pot calling
the cup Cup toasted? Is that what?
It is. That's right, yeah.
Yeah, we haven't brought that back in a while.
So there was that. I mean, we don't have to bring
it back. It's a common phrase.
No, no, no. I I was hoping it was gone like
my father. You were hoping your father was
gone. No, I'm saying I'm hoping that
the phrase was gone. Wow, I can't believe you like my
dad, Donnie Ji. Can't believe you do that.
Donnie J is not my real father. He is an adopted.
It's really a father. Is Mr. Mime that helps out
around the house and makes money so I can go to school?
Wow, talk about bowl calling the cub.
Cub toasted over here. I know, right?
He's a real cub cub if you ask me.
Yeah, that makes sense. The next entry here says when it
hears the crash of Thunder, Ella kids mood improves.
It can be useful to record that sound and play it when Ella kids
feeling down. OK, hey, that might not for
nothing. That might be important later,
so you should probably write that down.
OK, so Thunder. I think I think that information
might come in handy later. OK, good to know.
All right, all right. And the last entry here in the
Alola region says when it when it's horns shine a bluish white,
that is the sign it's fully charged.
You'll get a shocking jolt if you touch it.
Ow. Yeah, exactly like that.
Yeah. Yeah, that's that's what Corbin
experienced when when you touched it earlier.
My feeling is almost coming back.
Almost quick, Mr. Curtis, slap him again, see if he feels
anything. All right, Corbin, get over
here. OK?
Yeah. See, that's at about a four.
I could feel it a little bit, but not as much as.
It can. Hurts.
Normally that would have set me on the ground.
Let me, let me, let me switch to my dominant hand here.
OK, no. All right.
You ready? Yeah.
I'm ready. Good.
And one. Two counting down, yeah.
Oh my God, you knocked him right into into into.
Fun, I made it worse and I don't feel anything at all.
Back to square one again. Thanks a lot.
Yeah. Thanks a lot.
Mr. Oh man, my hair looks crazy. You're welcome.
I've made you an invincible, An invincible beeing that feels no
pain. Superhero.
A superhero? Really.
Or you're frying my nerves and I won't, my body won't be able to
tell me when I'm, you know, cut open or dying.
No, that's we'll. Need don't cut open or.
Die. That's that easy, Corbin.
I try every day. You've gone, you've gone 10
years without having that happen.
I know, what's another 10 more? Nerve damage?
Superhero. I mean, what's really the
difference, right? Yeah, that's true.
A lot of superheroes have disabilities.
We'll unpack that statement after he reads the more Pokedex
entries. I think a great idea next.
So let's move on to the Gala region.
We got a lot of entries to go, so we got to focus out, focus
in. Yeah, focus in, lock in.
When a store approaches, this Pokémon gets restless.
Once Ellicott hears the sound of Thunder, it gets full on rowdy.
You start screaming. Full on rowdy.
That's what I call Corbin after he's had like 1 soda.
Yeah. He gets he gets full on rowdy.
You give me you give me a nice can of soda pop.
I get full on rowdy. On Rowdy the next entry says
it's not good at storing electricity, yet this Pokémon
sneaks into peoples homes looking for electrical outlets
to eat electricity from. Alright, so, OK, so that makes
it sound like we're enabling here.
This, this makes it sound like we're, you know, kind of
teaching bad habits. Why don't you just keep your
door on the? Looks but Mr. Curry's.
He looks so happy. He's.
So happy. I don't know.
Sometimes you have to. Tough love is the way to go,
right? No.
OK, you're right. You know what?
Corbin, pull him out. No, he's defeated me.
Curtis, I don't know what to do. I'm not professor.
We'll have to re. We'll have to reassess and
circle back around to this week. Yeah.
I'm not pulling. Them out.
I refuse. I'm not going to get
electrocuted again. Wear gloves.
I don't have any rubber gloves. I got some spinner axe silk
gloves I can give you here, they're pretty sticky.
They're real sticky, you can't get them off.
You really want me to pull them out right now?
They protect against fire. I'm sure they protect against
electricity. Let me think on it.
I'll think on it while I read this next entry, which comes to
us from the Hisui region. It says they generate
electricity by spinning their arms during a thunderstorm.
If one hears the lively voices of children out in the
wilderness, what 1 is actually hearing are the voices of Ella
Kid. So lively children.
That's kind of crazy. OK, yeah, they sound like lively
children. All right.
They sound like full on rowdy children.
T-shirt. Full of.
Full on rowdy child. Whose full on rowdy child is
this? Someone better come collect this
full on rowdy. Child full on rowdy child with
an elective buzz sticking out of a socket, smiling.
No Ella kid or an elective buzz and then an Ella kid next to him
and it says don't talk to me or my full on rowdy child ever
again. That's right, yes.
Perfect. No notes, No notes, 0 notes.
OK, OK, let's see here. Moving on to the Paldea region,
the first entry says it loves Violent Thunder.
The space between its horns flickers blueish white when it's
charging energy. Yes, yes, alright, yeah, I think
I've already read the next one so I'm gonna skip it.
Let's see here. That does it for the regional
entries. We have a couple.
We actually have a decent amount of unique entries, so let's get
reading them. First one comes to us from Ashes
Pokedex. It says Ella Kid, the electric
Pokémon. Ella Kid is the evolved form of
Electabus. I mean, that's just wrong.
That's. Just that's just not right.
Straight up incorrect Eloquent. I'm sorry.
Listen, I'm a proponent of the, as you know, the Pokedexes, and
I believe that everything right in the Pokedex is right.
But this one, this I can't. I simply cannot stand by.
It's wrong. Ellicott is not the vault form
of Electabuzz. Ellicott evolves.
Into electabuzz. I have a very good memory and I
do remember distinctively several weeks ago in the Tyrogue
lesson they said the same thing about it turning into or Hitman
Lee or Hitman Chan turning into Tyrogue, I think.
I think you're. I do remember this before and I
couldn't remember if it it was during my lesson, my lesson
planning or if it was. No, you're right.
What is happening? Ash's Pokedex is wrong.
I'm telling you, we shouldn't trust it anymore.
I mean, yeah. I mean, I think we gotta throw
out Ash's pokedex. I agree, I hear you.
The last, you know, bit of the Johto region entries or Johto
region Pokémon, no more Ash. I mean, I'm gonna read them.
I'm gonna read them, but we're gonna look at them with a
critical eye and determine if we believe if they're correct or
not. Yeah, go suck a plug, buddy.
Yeah, go suck a hey, tab some SAP and suck a plug.
Tap some SAP and suck a plug buddy.
Yeah, but tab, tab some SAP is not, not not an insult, though.
Yeah, it's that's a, that's a positive.
Thing that's derogatory when I say it, I don't know what you're
talking about. Well, that's your.
That's your first problem. Professor, can I tap some STAP?
See, I don't like when you say it.
Curse you have a you have. I just, I just, I'm so thirsty
right now. Hold on, let me just get a quick
little. Chris, you have an indefinite
invitation to tap SAP. You.
Sir.
I will invite you to always tap SAP my guy.
Thank you. Thank you.
Don't. Even need to.
Test No derogatory derogatory. I love my I love my SAP.
OK, now the next Pokedex is Maze Pokedex.
It says Ella Kid, the electric Pokémon.
It spins its arms to create a powerful electric charge.
I think that's good. I think, I think Maze Pokedex
stays right. Maze stays all right.
So the next entry comes to us from Don's Pokedex.
It says Ella Kid, the electric Corbin.
Focus up, focus up. Sorry I I can't feel anything
physically but internally. Yeah, you're, you're you're
stabbing your pencil into your leg.
Your pencil's deep in your leg right now.
Yeah. No, Stop it.
No, Mr. Curtis, No. That's not good.
That's. Come on.
Come on, Corbin. Stop it, I don't.
Even know why you're over here. All right, fine.
Sorry, let me pull it out all. Right here, I'm gonna let me
patch you up. I got some good silk here.
Let me just. Doesn't matter how much I'm
electrocuted, I can feel the love I have for her beautiful.
Matter how much it burns more than 10,000 Ella kids in
sockets. Anyways, what were?
You saying I was saying Ella kid, The electric Pokémon.
Ella Kid waves its arms to produce a strong electrical
charge and gains strength when lightning is present.
OK, that's pretty good. All right.
And then and then Ash is like wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait. Wait, wait.
I was wrong. Let me let me do this.
It says Ella Kid, the electric Pokémon.
Ella Kid's weak spot is between it's horns, but the electric
current that runs there can shock the unwary.
You mean the the air that's in between it's horns?
You that's it's weak spot. What are you talking about?
No, what it meant was if you touch that spot, you get weak.
Ella kids weakening spot. Weakening spot?
Yeah. I won't tell you where my
weakening spot is. You'll have to guess.
I'm not going to. Yeah.
Ashes Pokedex. You're bad.
You're bad and wrong. You suck.
OK, but that does it for all of the Pokedex entries that we have
on Ellicott. How we feeling?
Hey, Hey, Corbin. No, Corbin, I know you're.
I see you walking towards plug. You're chilling here.
What do you? Mean, I know you're trying to
get more, you're trying to get superpowers again, but.
Convinced me that superheroes and powers are possible if I
just lick enough plugs. So why don't you scoot over your
plug? I don't I.
Can't say that that's not. Don't, don't listen to him.
That's not true. Can I just kind of like just
kind of like work my way in there and no my tongue, OK?
Fine, no back in your chair. Sit. 55555. 5 All right, so we
have a testing portion that we got to do today, and I think
it's gonna be an easy one. It's an instructional video and
the topic here is how to eloquent proof your home, right?
Yep. I mean, I think that makes
sense. If you have an Ella kid, you
want to make sure that your home is nice and safe for the Ella
kid so they don't like hurt themselves or anybody else while
they're in your home. Right, of course.
So as we all know, the instructional video is a group
assignment. The rubric is as follows.
So the first one is yes. Professor I, I don't, I don't
know if it's a good idea for me to be doing this with him right
now, though. He doesn't seem like he's and
he's he's all there. Like maybe maybe I should take
him to the nurse instead or. No, no, no, we're fine.
Listen Corbin and his lack of any like feeling or a sensation
in his. Lips, guys, look, I'm making a
tattoo with this pen. I don't really feel it.
Look. That's not different.
And then you and you, Mr. Curtis, stop.
OK, Corbin. Stop you.
I was one of the tattoo. Here it comes.
Here's the N. Now I took the pen.
I took the pen. Now it's half of an N Looks like
a V it says Dove give it back. Maybe, maybe you should think
about that. Tense of Don.
It's Dove, that's right. And OK, OK, it's fine.
Listen, he needs something to distract him while he gets
feeling back in his limbs, all right?
So you need to distract him, Mr. Curtis.
OK, All right, I will. I'm going to read the rubric
real quick and then let you guys get going.
So first, you must include information that we learned in
class and 2nd, you must demonstrate an understanding of
the unique attributes and abilities of the Pokémon. 3 the
presentation presentation must be at minimum 3 minutes long and
focus primarily on the topic assigned and four.
The final point is determined by your partner by answering the
question, how do you you rate your partner's participation in
the project? Yes, you, Corbin.
OK. All right, So go ahead.
Take some time, Corbin. Get away from plug.
I'm not going to ask you again. I just, if I take enough of it,
if I absorb enough, I can shoot it out of my hands, right?
I think I read that once. Maybe that's how an Electro type
Pokémon would work, but not you, Corbin.
It was a history book with pictures and panels, and it
settles based on a true story. Now he read a comic book.
He read a comic. Book those are based on real,
those are biographical, right? All right, I'm leaving.
Bye. What cheap man it is.
Dang, it's pouring outside. When did that start?
I walked down to talk to Annette a little bit.
And while you guys are working on this, man, it is.
Yeah, it's. Really starting to rain out
there. I did notice that while we were
filming it was getting pretty intense, but we do have a video
and we would like to show. It to you, I think yes, yes,
we're ready, professor. I'll focus so I can hear this
wonderful instructional video that you have prepared.
Lock. Hopefully the power stays good.
I hope so too. It's looking kind of rough.
All right, here we go. Putting it in the VHS tape and
here we go everybody and welcome to another.
Instructional everybody at. Home again and this is taking
time away and he's going to call it out later.
Stop. I'm so sorry, answer right?
Please go ahead. What did we learn about today?
Today we are doing a instructional video on how to
ellicate. Proof your house so well, that's
right, those ellicates, they're so dangerous around your home.
Make sure you're safe and your loved ones are safe this holiday
season. Because if not take care of
properly, there could be a lot of electrical damage.
So I'm going to tell you what to do with our very first step,
which is #1 keep all metal devices locked away or out of
reach, as we know. Oh yeah, you definitely don't
want those other kids conducting any electricity.
That's why when they when they touch metal, all electricity
goes haywire. So we can't be having all that
in Step 2. Mr. Curtis, you tell me a little
bit about that. Well, if there's something out
there that you can't put away and it is made of metal, or make
sure you cover those metal surfaces with rubber, OK,
Rubber's a good insulator. That's a good way to protect
yourself and your loved ones and your metal surface.
Insulator hardly know her. All right, what's the sorry
good. What's the next thing that they
should do? Corbin So after you have taken
away all the metal surfaces or at least covered them up or
metal devices, whatever. So Step 3 is you install plastic
outlet guards to prevent electrical suckling.
As we have seen in today's class, they love to suck plugs
and we can't be having all that. So we got to cover that up.
And now Mr. Curtis lead me into step four step. 4 is you need to
get your allocated and you need to bind their arms to the side
so they can't move them or spin them so that they can't generate
any electricity and you can keep your family.
Hey, hey, we talked, we talked. We said we weren't going to do
that one. Or I mean, cut that out of the
script. You can't bind a Pokémon's
What's. It.
No. What's the next step?
Corbin? I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have brought that. I went to a dark place.
That's OK. Sorry, we'll talk about it
later. Step 5 Create a special room or
space for your Ella kid and that is coated with rubber padding
and for them to go when they just get overly excited because
you know, we don't want our Ella kids to not have fun.
We want them to be able to enjoy themselves but in a safe
environment. So what's something else like I?
Shoot you 00 and and and and make sure that you add extra
speakers playing the sound of thunderstorms and thunderstrikes
for that designated playtime. That's because you know Ella
kids love that sound. It gives them a good outlet in a
safe environment and then when they're not so excited and
charged up anymore, then they can be released back into the
normal part of your house. I.
Love that a good outlet. That was a nice joke, because
that was. Super intentional too.
Yeah, alright guys, that was today's instructional video.
Leave a like on the video. Leave a comment.
Subscribe donate on page Patreon, buy our merch that
doesn't exist yet, and we love you guys We'll see you on the
next one and now that's. Right.
And now you know I don't. Know that was pretty good,
professor. What do you think?
That maybe. Yeah, you know, it was, it was
pretty good. I'm trying to remember though.
So I think, yeah, you are right when you said that it likes the
sound of Thunder, right? Yep.
But I don't know if playing a sound of Thunder is gonna get it
to calm down at all. Because I think what you said is
play Thunder strikes and then when it calms down, you can let
it out out of the rubber room. But I don't know if it's going
to, if the Thunder strikes are gonna get it to calm down
because I think, I think it's like all hyped.
I think, I think you give it Thunder, Thunder strike noises,
it's gonna get hyped up and crazy.
That's just for playtime. That's that's it.
That's just. Playtime, it's kinda, it's gotta
have a little bit of an outlet and then when.
We already heard the joke, miss. I know you're really proud of
it, but we already heard. It's a good one, it's a good
one. Try to incorporate it again
before the end. Of the lesson, I'm not gonna
take any points off though I I think it's fine.
However, it was only two minutes and 50 seconds long, so I am
gonna take off points for that unfortunately.
You. Get like a 3 1/2 out of.
Oh. Right.
So you're close, but you didn't you didn't quite hit it.
But yeah, everything else is really good.
That locking away metal devices very smart because that's, you
know, makes it fully discharged plastic outlet because it like
it's to prevent sucking. Although I still don't believe
that suckling is a is a bad thing.
I think, I think it's just a natural part of, of an
Ellicott's life cycle before it can generate electricity with
its own arms, which, you know, you did mention and that you
retracted the fact of binding its arms.
So I, it feels like that was kind of a way just to like prove
to me that, you know that, which is fine.
Well, it's just. OK, he added that in there.
He wasn't supposed to. It's inhumane to bind the arms.
But I understand the mindset. Yeah, I don't think that
there's, I don't think you guys misunderstood anything.
So excellent job overall. Mr. Kurtz, if I could have you
leave the room, please, I'd like to hear.
All right, review. Professor, let me hand out.
I'm heading now. OK, bring a rain jacket if
you're gonna go outside. It's for dangerous out there.
OK. Corbin.
Is this from how?
How are you rating Mr. Kurtz? What?
Is this from 1:00 to 4:00? I'm gonna give him a.
Yeah, yeah. One out four.
I'm gonna give him a 3.5. I think he did a good job
overall, but the only time, the only reason I'm getting rid of
half a point is because he did include that one thing about
binding the arms. We talked about it, it was axed
from the script, but he did have the outlet pun joke so I am
going to bump it up to a 3.75. I already wrote down 3.5 right?
3.75 This is what erasers are for.
It's I'm using a pen God. Dang it, use white out.
All right, fine. I scribbled it out.
It's fine. All right.
Get out of here.
Go. Go bring Mr. Curson.
All right, switch, buddy. Oh wow, you high fived on the
way out. That was cool.
Did you guys rehearse that? Nope.
Oh gosh, it's so wet out. Why don't you go all the way?
Outside. Oh my God, did you go all the
way? I told you to wear a rain
jacket. Well, the professor told me that
it was raining outside and I just had to go see it for
myself. So I have to go, you know,
windows are just soaked through that.
Let me just shake off a little bit here.
Oh my. God.
OK, now he's gone. Whoa.
OK. Mr. Curtis, how would you rate
Corbin? 4.4 out of four.
Well, OK, I can't. I can't give him more.
I can give him four. I can't.
OK, 4 is good. OK, what's what's the reasoning
here? 'Cause he, 'cause he helped me
reel it back in. And you know, I, I maybe may
have gone a little bit too overzealous with the binding of
Ella kids, but you know what? He he drew me back and he let
me, you know, he didn't give me a hard time about it.
Plus he inspired me to make that good pun joke.
So. You guys, I think we're really
overstating how good that pun was.
I don't think it was that good. I mean, it wasn't bad.
It wasn't that good, but it was a four out of four is perfectly
fine. All right?
Pretty good. No, Corbin, you cannot be
listening. Sorry.
Alright, get back in here though, all right?
Hey everybody. Hey guys.
That was, I think, what you. Guys talking about.
Yes, if you don't know, I think we're gonna wrap up the lesson
on Ella kid here while we whoa, whoa.
Did you hear that? Of the yeah, she's the power's
flickering that's. Yeah, that's hey, hey, Plug, you
may want to come out of that outlet because you may be doing
something to the electrical grid here.
That's not good and. They're it's fully gone.
Oh Oh no, no plug. Is recording place OK?
Is it plugged in there? What are you going plug?
I just ran out the room 0. God, I'm saying it's He doesn't.
Have enough energy to live on his own yet?
It's all the Thunder. It's the Thunder in the
background. He's getting all riled up.
Now, yeah, the hallways knocking over desks.
Throwing God. Throwing chairs around.
And at least he's spinning his own arms this time instead of
just, you know, feeding passively from the wall.
You know, you gotta appreciate that.
Wow, a really? You know what a what an
incredible story arc for Plug. Honestly, yeah, good character
development, right? All right, so let's go ahead and
wrap up this lesson. So if you want to get in
contact. Oh, wait, hold on, wait.
Hold on, hold on, hold on. Does anybody know who we're
learning about next week? And Corbin, I know you do,
Maggie. I know you freaking do.
Yeah. It's really OK.
Yes. Wow.
Yeah. Yeah.
Right off the gear out of the gate.
Yes. Is it decision?
Why? I carved it into my leg earlier
when I was making my Dawn tattoo so I wouldn't forget it.
So it's. Maggie and.
Then no tank and I didn't get that far after that.
My feelings. Are I appreciate the commitment,
Corbin. Hey, Mr. Chris, if we could just
get that pen away from him real quick.
Yeah, yeah, Corbin, let me have that pen back.
Please no. It's the no, it's not that one.
It's this one. It's the small.
It's. Covered in blood, though.
Yeah. Yeah, this one's good too.
It's the one that's still in his leg.
Yeah, I'm just gonna patch patch you up here with a little bit of
webbing here real quick and. Go ahead and wrap this up while.
He's wrapping. Yes.
You. Yeah, whatever you say.
Yeah. So we're learning about Magby
next week. I can't wait.
I'm looking forward to it. In the meantime, if you would
like to get in contact with me, the professor, you can send a
Gengar mail to wwopokemon@gmail.com.
It's in the description. If you can't remember it, it's
perfectly fine. We're also on Pumpkaboo Sky,
we're on Jaw TikTok, we're on Instagram.
Yep, Instagram. Now it sounds weird to me for
some reason. It's weird that it's not a
Pokémon fun. I don't.
Know maybe maybe they'll redo it like they did Twitter.
Maybe at some point, maybe we'll do a rebranding.
We're also on YouTube where we stream every Sunday at 7:00 PM
Eastern Eastern standard, Eastern Standard Time.
So come check us out there. We're we have a Patreon.
If you, you know, if you feel as though you know, you want to
support this lesson series and help us do things like go on fun
field trips or right, I, I don't know, go to the Rigby's again, I
guess it's a field trip and we get a Jacuzzi.
For the classroom. If you want us.
To yeah get to 3. How about another cookie party
we get? To $300 a month we will have a
Jacuzzi cookie party. So Jacuzzis cost 3. 100 bucks
right? Huh.
Jacuzzis cost 300 bucks right? Something like that, Yeah.
Yeah, about that. No, we already have a Jacuzzi.
It's just. We do have to.
We have to rent time and it's like $300.00 an hour, so oh.
OK, well guys, let's get a $300 a month please.
Yeah, thanks. OK.
But I think, I think that's going to do it for this week's
lesson. So until next time.
Whoa, whoa, did you hear? That no, I was I was busy doing
my I don't know what are you. No, it may have been delicate
outside. It's just OK.
Well, we got to get him some treatment for that electrical.
Damage. Yeah, go, hey, go ahead.
Take him to to Roslyn. Yeah, Come on, Corbin, come in.
And as they're walking out of the classroom, Professor Jacobs
says till next time class is dismissed.
