Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob and thank you so much for attending
this lecture on Pokemon biology. Joining me here in the
classroom. Today is of course, my wonderful
teaching assistant mr. Curtis mr.
Correll. Oh good.
Oh yes, please please continue. Continue to say hello to
everybody. See I say hello?
Hello. Its me, mr.
Curtis, I'm so happy to be here, as you always are talking very
odd today, to get some like dental work done or something.
Oh no, I just had a, I just had something in my mouth there, I
was trying to eat a snack before class.
I apologize. What I said about snacks in the
classroom as you said, I can't. But but then I haven't left the
classroom in like 12 hours in my blood.
Sugar was getting low. Okay but that's not my fault.
That's how, is that my fault? Next time.
I'll hang out the window. Thank you.
And also, in the classroom here,
today is our trainer in training Corbin.
If you could, please say hello to the your your, I don't know.
They're not your students. I guess your classmates subjects
if you will subdue. I was trying to think of like,
you know, since you're the class president?
Yes yes. They're my constituents because
yeah. X is whatever you want to say.
Yo, what's going on, everybody? Good to be back in class.
I'm very excited because Halloween is this coming week?
And who you get, which, which Pokémon you guys going to dress
up as you go trick-or-treating? Well, I'm not gonna dress up as
a Pokemon. Why would you dress up as a
Pokemon? Everybody sees Pokémon all the
time. I'm going to be Spider-Man.
Okay, okay, I'm gonna just, I'm gonna be the best Pokemon,
always spinarak. Okay, every time you gonna dress
up as a spinarak, like how do you get to make that costume?
Well, I have a, I have a sack that I painted green.
Oh, nice. Did I step that I step into and
then, you know, we just, I've got some, some paper towel
tubes, that are painted black and they're like the legs.
Okay? Yeah.
And then and then I get, I have
a have a web cannon that I stick out my but I shoot it a nice
weight. Like you mean out of the back of
the Like, green sack that you um, yeah, of course.
Okay. How did the sack?
Okay, good. I mean that's that's better than
the alternative. I suppose, let's focus up.
Okay, we're here for a reason. No, we are actually here to talk
about Pokemon one Pokemon in particular.
Does anybody know who it is? Corbin you seem to know very
quickly last time. So it is the evolved form of
Rhyhorn. Is it correct that correct,
that's correct. It is.
Is right off, right? I think it's right antlers,
which she actually meant. Oh sorry, no Rye off.
Not right antler. Is it rice Spike?
No, none of those. None of those in fact that the
fact that you are so close to actually guessing it and not
guessing, it lets me know that you do.
In fact know what it is. So good work guys.
I'm very proud of you. We're learning about ride on
today. Oh yeah.
You didn't know sure. Alright, your head right off, I
didn't actually know mr. Carson's, you know?
I didn't know. No, I wasn't sure.
But I mean now that he says it, of course, now it makes sense.
I hear it in my head and I'm like, oh I knew that the whole
time, you know? Now, I don't know.
Alright, has anybody seen a ride on?
Um, I saw one. I can't lie.
No, I don't see one. Okay, thank you.
Thank you for being honest. With me, mr.
Curtis, yes. I think I saw one when we went
to a Lowell. I went, I went on a day trip up
to one of the volcanoes. Oh yeah.
Seem to be enjoying itself. Just soaking up some nice.
What you saw that? No cap.
No lie. No lie.
That's right. It's a boy.
So it was it was having a good time who showed Corbin
Tick-Tock? Oh not me.
It was it was. Oh yeah cuz you are Corvin.
It was my cousin, my cousin. Shouldn't ya?
Are we can't you're far too young to be going?
Was that right? Was that right on busting on
God, on God mr. Curtis would you say that he was
busting on fleek? It was what he was.
Okay. Busting on.
All right. Cool anyways.
Hmm. Yeah, I don't know what's
happening. I don't know what this is.
Is there's a weird energy in the classroom today and I don't know
if I love it or if I hate it every, every every class you
just kind of have to roll with it.
You know, you never know what you're going to get with the
three of us. So well today you do can know in
fact that you do can know you can hey let me take another run
at that one today, you can teach what's the would be the
vernacular here, you will have an idea, you will.
For sure that you're seeing all right on cuz here is a right on
right now. Whoa.
Okay, big boy, much bigger than Rhyhorn, and he's on, he's on
his two feet now, he's bipedal. Yes to bury out very astute,
observation carbon. I'm very proud of you that is
that's probably the one of the biggest changes here is the fact
that right Dawn is stands on two legs and Fry horn as on four
legs. And this fact alone has made
this. This evolutionary change has
made right on far more intelligent it all better.
Very smart. Yes.
So he's not a big dumb, dumb. Like last time.
No, no side note. Does anybody remember what we
named the Rhyhorn? Oh man, I'll spend a long week
Rose like right now, listen, there's something I feels like
Kevin I have no idea. Oh yeah it was rifle Ops.
Of course. How can we forget, how can I
forget? Listen, the name doesn't matter.
All that matters is he's a smart bipedal, boy, also.
He's different color now. He's little bit darker gray.
Of course you would notice it's color.
What does that mean? No I just think he's got you
know just got a knife. You have an eye for art as well?
Yeah, he's just he's got a cool Look to Him now you know he
looks way different. Well, thank you that much
darker. He's pretty much the same color.
I think it definitely will be darling.
There's a little more charcoal charcoal and gray Rhyhorn was
gray. Ride on is more charcoal.
If you will think that's right. I think I think right ons agree
to disagree Professor. Okay, so right on has like a,
like a, like a, like a tan belly to you have.
Let's say he has a belly. Okay.
Yeah. And right.
Rhyhorn did not have a belly. No.
So, yeah, my ride on now is very, very intelligent.
It can do really incredible things.
I don't believe you. In fact, it can now remember two
things at once, instead of just one, no way.
Way. I mean, and if you think about
it, that's like double the intelligence, which is can we
test that? Sure, I guess.
How do you want to test it? Um, okay, so my name is Corbin
and that's mr. Curtis.
Okay, he nods his head. He wore those are two different
things and now he's remembered them.
Wow, okay. Okay.
Well now you see now, let's see. Now, let's see.
Okay. Right on who, which one is
Curtis? Hmm.
Don't shut up job. You can't try again.
Telling him. I'm just spin him around and try
it again. Alright man, then around case
good. Okay.
And stop it. All right, which one is mr.
Curtis, got it. Yeah and then which one which
one? Which cool.
One is mr. Curtis shut up.
You already answered which one is Corbin?
There it is. Oh my God.
He is more intelligent. Which one is the professor?
He got you to three things at once.
The Reed thinks I'm so proud. I was of Rome.
All right, goodness. Now the right on, how many
fingers am I holding up? Good three.
Okay. All right, so he's so smart.
Wait, so what? I hold up, three, and then he
holds up three Dad equals. It doesn't know.
Arithmetic yet. Corbin come okay.
Doesn't know that. Okay, that's one thing at a
time. Forget that he's clearly very
confused. Yeah.
He's like, who's there? He's still learning colors.
He hasn't quite gotten the colors yet.
But you know, we'll get there. We'll get there.
It's way smarter than me. Oh my God.
Yeah, it doesn't matter. Two colors are like the lowest
end of the totem pole with intelligence.
You need to learn colors. It's just this matter at all.
Anyway, yeah, Corbin has even learn colors yet.
Yeah. Can they even see in color?
I think that, you know what, I think they're I don't think they
see color. I think they at the very least
concede. The Shades of Gray and then be
like, alright, this slightly less gray is red and slightly
more gray is blue. Now I remember reading that they
can read up to 50 Shades of Grey.
Now, that might be something else.
I don't know what that means, exactly.
But I remember reading somewhere, they need to have a
conversation with your mother. Okay.
We are having a talk after class Mister, okay?
All right, fine, whatever. But anyways.
Yeah, so colors don't matter as much that doesn't does not
measure of intelligence, but I think right on his proven
himself today to be the most intelligent person probably in
the definitely in the room. I would argue the whole school
framing. Yeah.
The way he pointed at each of us was just spectacular.
He knew three meant. I mean this is nice.
Yeah, Todd. Steer you're being a little bit
sarcastic. I'm not, I'm honestly Justice
may be no II swear. I'm not I'm not being fattest, I
am being 100% serious, safe Atticus.
Yes that's how they pronounce it.
You know, sorry. But yeah it's a very intelligent
and I'm very happy to have been a part of this.
This life-changing moment for you right on.
All right, he loves the time. Alright.
Let's do a few more few quick
descriptions of. I mean, we did we said it has a
tan belly and a sitting on two legs.
But there's a couple of other big features here that we should
probably. Notice anybody want to tell me
anything till I tell? Yes.
Yes, it has a much longer tail. It's gotta, it's got a horn.
Well, Reinhard had a horn to hence the name as true.
Amazing isn't the name right? Well what's so what's different?
What do you what are you noticing about this?
It's a, it's a spiral horn, okay?
A little bit more about that horn in the Pokedex entries and
on Rhyhorn it was more of just like a like a like a, I don't
know, like a another extension of his body but this ride on
almost seems like it's A Separate Peace.
Yeah. It's got a separate Corkscrew on
his nose. So yeah.
I mean you could try and take it off.
You want to try you fail, you can try.
You'd fail for sure. Yeah.
And he's got, he's got ears. I think those ears are horns.
I can't really tell. It's a good question.
I don't it doesn't appear. I mean.
Okay, so definitely has to have ears, right?
Because they can hear us. Well I mean they're probably out
there. They can hear us and don't have
ears. Is that true?
Yeah, Gengar could hear us. It's ghost.
So what has ears? Ms. A spot that looks like years
gang car was dead. So, no, or maybe it understands
us telepathically, but there's no physical piece of the ear to
interact with that. The sound waves in the air.
So listen to me as one new hair says, one intelligent being to
another, I understand you right on, you understand me too.
So yeah, I mean, it could be ears.
It might not be yours. I'm not really sure it's hard to
tell but it Like, little spiky is up and downs back.
It looks a little bit. Honestly, it looks a little bit
like Nidoking, but like little bit could be a distant cousin or
something maybe. Yeah, potentially, I mean, yeah,
I can see it because it is the it is the drill Pokemon and
Rhyhorn was the spikes Pokemon and as mr.
Curtis noted last week that Nitto that the NATO's have a lot
of spikes and stuff, so it could be variants.
You never know. Oh, wait a second.
Wait a second. Actually actually actually,
Nidoking is also the drill Pokemon.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
And they do look, extremely they.
I'm looking at it now. Like I have a picture of little
King here. If you think if students at
home, if you could just look at a picture of ditto King, they
look extremely similar. This might be an example of what
Some people call convergent evolution, which is convergent
or Divergent its converge. This is converse is convergent.
So it's kind of like in the Paul Daya region with Diglett and
Wiglet, you know? Well, but I mean, so you're
saying that they don't have common ancestors.
They evolved in similar regions. Yes.
Okay. Because before I thought you
were saying that they had similar ancestors.
Know, that's a common ancestor. No, I mean unless you consider
Mew the comments, Ancestor. Well, I mean, we all came from
you, let's be honest. Did humans come from you, sorry,
I'm not up on my Pokemon religion.
I don't know that. You know, that's a question
question for greater minds like right on.
Yeah, it's really a personal question that you have to answer
in your walk with you, so I'm not gonna I'm not gonna force it
here, that's true, that's true. All right.
I have I put right on back into the Pokeball, you know, he's
right there. I was looking at the Whiteboard.
Sorry, all right. He's over there learning math.
I had him playing with some blocks.
Oh, I see you. I see you gave him an abacus to
such a strong boy. Smartbox was wrong.
Boy smart boy, too. All right, all right.
It's going away right on going away.
Goodbye right. All right, all right, everybody.
Focus on the time to read some Pokedex entries.
It's why we're here. You tell your you focus on is
what I'm telling you. That's what I'm saying right
now. I'm telling everybody Focus up.
I'm focused, I'm ready. I'm doubting.
Excellent. Okay, great.
Give it to me. Corbin start what?
What? It's rice up.
Give me that pencil. Okay, here we go.
Thank you, thank you. All right now.
I'm focused. I'm ready.
Okay, great. Alright, starting off in the
Kanto region, fair warning. A lot of these folks sensors are
extremely similar. I'm sorry in advance.
Okay, I'm sorry that your fault protected by an armored like
hide it is capable of living in Multan.
Of a of 3,600 degrees. Whoo.
Fahrenheit Celsius is I don't know what magic.
It's whatever its K. Well if it was K you wouldn't
say degrees. Right?
Okay, so it's either Fahrenheit or Celsius.
All right, that's fair in height.
I don't know who Calvin is his K guy.
How come he keeps? All right listen I don't know
I'll go he's always so so cold. Okay, ha ha ha, ha, ha ha ha.
Alright, alright. Alright, comedy comedy gold.
Comedy rich. Thank you.
All right, entry number two, walks on its.
Hind legs shows signs of intelligence.
Its armor like hide even repels molten lava.
Hmm now so I mean, I saw, I know we were hyping up, right?
Ons intelligence a lot here but like be honest He would you
consider right on to be more or less intelligent than other
Pokemon? We've talked about in the
classroom. I'd say most of them.
Yes. It's more intelligent than most
of them, I think he would give Alakazam a run for his money.
It just, I feel like there's a lot of Pokémon that have kind
of, like, you know, this basic level of intelligence, but you
don't see in their Pokedex entries.
The thing stating, we do shows signs of intelligence like the
Centre just did. So if it doesn't say that just
assume the Pokemon is really dumb.
Well, no, I think I think it goes to show that Rhyhorn is
just so stupid. Ed that it's it's just in
contrast to yeah, right. Yeah, they're basically saying,
like guys, right on can actually beat itself work on guys feet,
right? On isn't afraid of its own
shadow which is amazing. It can, it can it knows how to
chew and swallow and knows how to walk and chew gum at the same
time. Wow, two things, it can remember
two things. The next entry says protected by
an armored like hide It can survive and lava over 3,600
degrees. Its horn can bore holes through
Boulders. Mmm.
Now, just get the frame of mind here.
How hot is boiling point of water water.
It's like 100 degrees Celsius, right?
I don't know why that isn't 200. 212° 212.
Right in this thing can survive. You know, it's more than 200.
It's Verbs, injured 212 degrees. Why I said?
All right, 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yeah. And it can survive in 3,600
degrees Fahrenheit. Lava.
Well, we don't know if it's Fahrenheit or Celsius.
That's a two very different either way, it's impressive.
Let's see here, let me get it. Let me just go ahead and pull up
a Celsius to Fahrenheit. Come.
I don't know why you don't just bring out the right on again and
ask him, he's until we get this. So, so, so smart.
He's gotta know. I mean, we could just pour some
lava Mom, real quick, you know, what that's gonna burn through
the entire school, and we can't now mr.
Curtis kornek? No, we're not in a position now.
No, no, according to my Pokédex, it is 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit.
Well, you know, that lets that's what my Pokedex says, well, your
Pokedex is wrong. Okay I see what okay I said okay
I think yeah I'm looking forward a little bit here and it does
say Fahrenheit in the later and you got lucky this time mr.
Curtis. I mean, I just read reading
reading the Pokedex entries, that's what we're here for.
I'm just saying, okay. But regardless, but regardless
here in class, we are privileged to have all of the Pokedex
entries at our disposal, right? So a lot of people aren't gonna
have that A lot of people might just have the the can Tony and
Pokédex and all they're gonna get is 3,600 degrees which is a
very different. Number 3,600 degrees Celsius is
equal to six thousand five hundred and twelve degrees
Fahrenheit. That's so different, but 3,600
degrees. Fahrenheit is only 1982 degrees
Celsius. So a lot though, you know so
it's a big difference, a big difference, it is for sure,
true. I mean it would The rate, it
would melt any of us. It would be dust.
I mean, regardless either way. Yeah, we're dead.
Yeah, it would be to us like a Charizard's flame.
I'm only resistant up to 1,000 degrees now this is.
Wait, wait. I'm sorry.
Wait thousands agrees, what Celsius?
Wait. Okay, look, you can wear a suit
that makes you impervious to heat.
Yeah. Yeah this is birthday suit.
A suit. Mmm-hmm.
Yes. Okay it's right here.
It's woven out of spinarak threads.
Okay, as you weren't under your trench coat.
Okay. That's what you're wearing
another all right. All yeah, don't need to do need
to see that. Thanks, can I wear my special
spinarak undies. Okay.
Moving on. Thank you.
Alright, moving on to the Johto region.
Oh, by the way, do you think that a Charizard could melt
through a ride on? No.
I mean evidently so I mean it could melt through anything well
almost but I can do it now. It can it can melt anything but
it can't because it only spits fire not lava which fire is not
as hot as lava. So anything I know that's that's
not necessarily true. So that just missed mean the
Charizard's flame breath. Is hotter than 3,600 degrees
Fahrenheit. Yeah.
It's not like, it's not like it
says that right, ons armor. Like hide can prevent it from
feeling any heat ever, right? I think the Charizard wins out
here for sure. I don't know I mean if
Charizard's fire breath was really that hot all the time
then like Whenever you throw one out, battle with just
eviscerate, the Pokémon may be dead, it wouldn't be a battle.
That's why that's why everybody should have a Charizard.
I mean, good point, good point. So if students, if you ever have
the question will Charizard in a battle between Charizard and
blank who would win the answer is always going to be Charizard
except if it's blast, I guess you're very tired today.
I am very tired today, sorry. One sec another room to make me
young if you do. Yeah, sorry to have coffee this
morning. My mom usually makes me some, he
should not be drinking coffee at your age, you know what, mind
your own business? Um, fair enough, that all I was
gonna say could, yeah, you don't really have anything to say to
you, all right? Moving on to the Johto region,
its rugged hide. Protects it from even the heat
of lava, however, the hide also makes it insensitive, huh?
So like elves, just crack jokes about people's, you know, Dead
parents or something. Yeah, who would do that?
Is that considered sensitive emotionally and physically
emotionally barren? This thing it's doesn't have a
care in the world. You could.
I mean to be fair, though, that could also be a blessing, right?
I mean the intelligence comes at a cost that has no empathy, you
know, it just does what it wants.
I'm guessing that this pokedex entry is definitely referring
to. You know, it's like touch,
right? Definitely physical sensitivity
like you could touch it and it won't even notice.
Right, that's heartbreaking. I mean, I guess it's normally
every time you touch, you feel the static and it wouldn't get
that with dance. I swear that you can fly over
the magic, right? So a few of the bandwidth right
on, you couldn't get that. You can get that static when you
get that time, good feeling. Well if you're looking for
static, get a Pikachu. Right?
Exactly. Yeah.
The next entry says, it's Brain developed when it began.
Walking on hind legs. It's thick hide, protects it and
it even in magma. All right, I mean things we
already know by lightly spinning its drill like Hornet can easily
shatter even a diamond in the rough.
Well, there you go. Yeah, so it spins around.
Okay, so I've now Professor, excuse me, I've see I thought I
thought diamonds were the were the strongest thing.
Know who said that? Who's that are diamonds?
Are diamonds, not the strongest material.
I mean, look at strength, I guess, I mean, if you look at
the drill, it has a lot of pressure in one points, right?
Right. Which can Aid to its ability to
crush things. Hmm.
Yeah. But see, but see like, usually
you put diamonds on saw blades to cut things.
Don't cut, right? So like the right on horn Cuts
Diamond. Well, I mean what it's not.
I mean we cut diamonds, we do. I mean it's not unheard of
thing. How do you think?
But get the diamonds onto the saw blades but the strongest
Diamond got getting hit getting cut by the right on horn.
What cuts a right on horn then who yeah I don't know.
Diamonds. Probably could Could probably
another right on torn right on right on Charizard Flames well
that's not breaking that's melting we can melt them down.
Yeah into their base materials. Okay so that actually does it
for the Johto region. The Hoenn region the first
century here says right ons, horn can crush even uncut,
diamonds, mmm. Yeah, it's reinforcing that.
As you say what it would cut some uncut gems, maybe or just
diamonds specifically, I mean if it can cut diamonds I can cut
other gems to that's fair. Okay.
Nice one sweeping blow of its tail can topple a building.
This Pokemons hide is extremely tough.
Even direct Cannon hits. Don't leave a scratch, mr.
Curtis, you have a bazooka license, right?
I do know, the, I know this is going with me at all.
No, we're not doing wait. Yeah, well, the license is
always hearing the license you carry with you at all times.
Not the oh, I mean, I have a dismantled in my backpack.
We don't need devil little, what?
We don't need to do. It's a mini, it's a mini Zucca.
It's not a big Zucca, it's a miscellaneous pronounce things.
Ooh, it's not yet, it's not a buzz.
You've got it, Sam, uh, Zucca, the m stands for many.
That's right, and that's good, but that's rich tips.
It tips, Fedora mizuka. That's right.
Scratch his neck beard. Um, you know, we'll put that on
the back burner for now, mr. Curtis, keep reading these
entries. The next one from the Hoenn
region says, right on has a horn that serves as a drill it is
used for destroying rocks and boulders.
This Pokemon occasionally Rams into streams of magma but the
armor like hide prevents it from feeling the Heat.
Geez doesn't feel a thing. Now it doesn't feel a thing.
I mean, I've never in my day-to-day life, you know,
accidentally run into a stream of magma, but I guess it's
something that a ride on will go through.
And it's, you know, it's going about its daily chores or
whatever. In Jude loves it, honestly,
can't get enough. Okay, let's see here.
The next entry says, it's horn which rotates like a drill
destroys tall buildings with Strike.
Whoo. How we ever thought?
However, gotten together as a people and thought maybe we
should try to Pokemon proof our buildings.
Um, a lot of things that can destroy a tall building with one
strike. If I think about it, I think
it's something that we've talked about, but I don't know, I don't
know if people want to pay more in taxpayer money to do that,
but I mean, I would, I would rather pay more in tax money to
prevent a ride on. From toppling of building, then
to have to pay a tax money to rebuild it.
When they, when they never - we have to listen rebuilding the
building like caught like it provides so many jobs.
Helps the economy. You just don't understand.
Well, all the with all the Machoke sand, Conkeldurr, 's,
and what is it? Conkeldurr, it's we haven't
gotten to Conkeldurr yet Corbin it's a it's a fighting-type
Pokémon but Specializes in care around, Big Blocks of concrete,
because either they can they, they're really good at
rebuilding buildings. I mean, you know, we destroy
this classroom on a regular basis and it's always up and
ready for the next round of lessons.
Yeah, that's true. But what if we built it in such
a way where we didn't have to do that?
I mean, that would be nice. That's true.
Yeah, I mean I've I guess I don't know how he would.
We have to like build the foundation of diamond or
something. Don't be nice.
I suppose you're right. Right.
Yeah but not if it's a right on because again just smashed you
could just smash the diamonds. Well we can't really do that
because this is the foundation of the school built on like some
sort of like weird Vortex or something and then how we got a
Mega Gengar. You mean that the power spot is
there but that they're called right?
Yeah. Allows for check answer maxing.
Yes of course. I mean honestly this is such an
old school. It would be an absolute shame if
anything were to happen to it. Oh yeah.
It's a storm really historical. It would be, it would be a
national Tragedy if we lost the school, considering how long
it's I mean, yeah. I mean, some would say it's a
national treasure, you know, and it would, it would kill it.
Would personally, it would destroy me.
If I was the one to be the direct cause of this or any part
of Saffron City getting destroyed.
I think you'd lose your license. I mean, the school's 252 years
old. I mean, you can't just, you
know, it's got a lot of history here.
Can't lose the license when he never had one anyway, it's this
next entry says, it begins walking on its hind legs.
Legs after Evolution, it can punch holes through Boulders
with its horn, kind of knew that already moving on to the Sinnoh
region, its brain developed after it stood up, on its hind
legs, its drill horn Force, tunnels through, solid rock,
easy for you to say. I don't know why I've struggled
with this. It's drill horn, boars tunnels
through, solid rock, it feels like.
There should be a comma in there somewhere.
I mean, I don't think there should but like, as you're
reading it it's like, all right. The Cava coming for sure.
Nope. Nope.
The next one in this entire region says standing on its hind
legs freed its four legs and made it smarter it is very
forgetful. However so the about the higher
altitude I think from being you know bipedal now makes it just
so much smarter. I mean if this entry really
makes it seem like the fat it has to do with the fact that
it's four legs are now free that it right?
That's why it's smarter but it doesn't really go into much
detail. Because we're oxygen being up
higher. Don't think I don't think so.
I don't think that's how it works.
Take your wrong. I mean I could be wrong.
I'm not a chemist. Nope, I'm a biologist.
Everybody knows that chemists are like a thousand times
smarter than biologists. I wouldn't say that oh I don't,
I'm me a hundred thousand others way smarter, that sounds that
sounds about right. All right, moving on.
That doesn't for the center region.
Nothing new for the you Nova or the Kalos.
What else is new weirdly enough? The The a Lola region.
Hate it when that happens. Didn't read the gallery entries.
I mean they are extremely similar.
It begins walking on its hind legs after Evolution.
It can punch holes through borders, its horn.
It feels as though we've kind of really settled in like these are
the two things that you need to know about, right on.
It's smarter now that's on its hind legs and it can also punch
holes through hard things. Yes.
Oh.
And The next one says the third thing that you need to know
protected by an armored like a guess.
Sure. Yes please go ahead.
It is it's resistant to Lava. Yes it go.
What's the temperature? What's the temperature?
3,600 degrees Fahrenheit. All right you basically like
literally just read the second half of this pokedex entry.
Oh what really? No way almost word for word.
She's um there's the little bit different here from the the Sue
Ian Pokédex. It says rapidly rotates its horn
to bore through bedrock it's Swagger's around volcanic
regions protected from the lavas Heat by it's Tough Armor like
hi. That's Swagger when it walks,
you know, it does. Alright, that does it for the
regional entries. That's free.
There's only one unique entry here.
It says ride on the evolved form of Rhyhorn.
It is known as the drill Pokémon its large horn.
Gives it formidable attack power.
Oh no, I mean, sure like if it's stabbed you with it it would
kind of hurt but like it's really smooth.
It's not like, I don't know, but if it drills you you're toast
now. I guess I mean, if it can take
down a the large Building I suppose it's because a a diamond
that I can show your nothing. It might hurt me a little bit,
just a bit. Yeah I think it's less about
strength when it comes to Diamond and more about finesse
and being able to, you know, hit it at the right spot.
I feel like oh you think there's like a like a resonance points
where you if you just tap it the right way, it goes, it splits
open. Yeah, yeah.
Provided you have a hard enough material that you're that,
you're tapping it with. Right?
Yeah, yeah. Alright, that does it for all
the Pokedex entries on ride on now.
It's time to see if you guys have retained any of those
knowledge that I so lovingly taught you I know right on I
can't do more than two things at once, you know, thinking about
them. Alright, so today I would like
for you to, I mean, I know I already have one, but I would
like for you to pitch me. All right on.
Oh, make me want to buy. Why you're right on.
All right, I think I believe I have a rubric for this.
For this assignment. I surely have rubrics for all my
assignments. I'll get there.
Alright, so in your pitch, you
must include information that we learned in class.
You must demonstrate understanding of the Pokemons
unique, abilities and attributes.
You must provide two different selling points and your pitch.
And these selling points must be for the Pokemon itself and not
for a product. It provides or produces.
Okay. So don't be sad.
Don't try to sell me ride on Horns.
All right, okay. It's not, that's not but I was
but we could use this to mine diamonds.
Don't forget. Yeah.
You're selling me the Pokemon, not not a tool that I can create
from it. And for them, it's kind of a
bonus thing. The student who provides the
most compelling. Selling points will get a bonus
Point. All right?
Are we all ready? Yes.
Would you like to try some time? I guess to to write yours out or
you just going to go into it cold.
I'd like to just I mean I already have an idea.
I think I know what we're like. Okay, all right, well then we'll
start with you Corbin, okay? Hello everyone.
I am here to pitch you a right on and why you absolutely need
one. Okay.
You do not need to spend lots of
money to build a nice vacation home in the Lola.
You got a ride on for that and I'll tell you why.
So right on is obviously with able to withstand 3,600 degrees
Fahrenheit. Lava, we've established this
many times so what can it do you want a nice?
You want a nice vacation home up near the volcanoes of a Lola?
Sure, you could do that. Why not?
Or even not even a Lola right in our backyard.
Why don't you just go travel to Cinnabar Island?
I hear it's nice. This time of year in the fall,
it gets a little Been chilly in the air, but you get a little
bit of heat coming off that volcano.
It feels nice balances itself out.
You can build a vacation home. I like on Cinnabar Island right
now. With one of these guys, if you
can work with light on to hot Corbin, how can I withstand the
lava? Well I'll tell you how with the
right on. You're going to be able to use
it to drill holes in the right spot.
You can have it piled rocks on top of each other and break
other rocks down, pile them on top of each other and build the
foundation for a home. That is Is not going anywhere.
Honestly, it's going to withstand it.
It's going to carve out a path in the like more than just
building a home. It's going to carve out a path
to direct the lava away from your home.
Like that's a real big thing. It can create a giant Ravine
inside the foundation of the Vault, the volcano in the
mountain in order to divert that lava into different direction so
you can live happily in your vacation home with the best
view. Imagine if I mean, come on,
Cinnabar Island, you get a whole look at the city and then right
in your backyard. Oh my God, there's a giant
volcano right behind me. That's crazy.
You never have to worry about it hurting you because you got your
right on there to move your house along or build up some
rocks or do whatever it needs to to defend it.
It's able to withstand the high temperature.
So even if one of these days, you know it's got a it's got to
work out in the elements AK hot lava.
It can do that because it can withstand it, it's fine.
Fine. And let's say, you're tired of
your home, your vacation home, or Resort, whatever you want to
call, you can make money off of the sort, but I know it's one of
the criteria are supposed to be able to make money off the pitch
Pokemon. Anyways, let's say you want to
move your Resort or it's no longer good.
Your he started a family and you want to move to another
luxurious volcano somewhere else that you don't have the risk of
your child falling and dying in lava.
Well listen, you don't have to worry about that because first
of all, it can run into the lava and get Anybody who is in danger
because it was said, love, uh, drop your keys, no i.d., the
lava would get them, I'm still talking to Ryan, still pitching
the Pokemon, okay, I just need to make sure everybody knows I
think once you enter lava, there's no way a ride on can
pull you out and five second rule, I disagree now.
So let's say that. Clear.
Yo you if you need to topple part of the building or any
building sure. See you can.
You can you can Do that you can go up in the mountain.
You can knock down your Mountain Home and you can move it
somewhere else. It's just that easy.
It can it can drag it down and now you can move it to another
part of the mountain or different Mountain entirely.
Can ship it off somewhere else to whoever you like.
But the whole thing is you know also if you if you are on the
mountains and like I mean I was kind of like half making a joke
but also not making a joke that like if somebody is on the
volcanic Mountain let's say they're going on a hike near
your Home, they may not be in the lava, but guess what?
What happens, if the volcano starts oozing and little Timmy
is trapped out on the volcanic rock and he's surrounded by lava
on every side. Help help.
That's Timmy. He needs help.
Who's gonna come? Get him a flying-type Pokémon?
No, that's going to be too hot, ashes.
All about, going to catch those wings on fire.
Who's gonna come save the day right on?
Right? On, just going to come Trucking
through going to Barrel through the lava, put a little Timmy on
his back and he's he's going to take you home somewhere.
Sounds a little Timmy. Little Timmy will be fine,
though. So you got the, what?
You got a way to rescue people. If they're trapped by lava, you
can build a home with it. And you can also carve out rocks
and Ravines and all that stuff to not only avoid your home but
also avoid the city. That's another thing too.
I just thought about let's say you see the Llama coming down
off the volcano. You could you could divert it
that way too. So it's about building and
shaping. The mountain in the way that
best suits, you your lifestyle in the safety of others, and
rescuing, Timmy and rescuing Timmy.
That's what it's all about and I rest my case, I really do feel.
Sometimes like Corbin's pitches are kind of like, just a stream
of Consciousness sometimes. Thank you so much his throat.
Oh, and I thought of this other thing.
Well that, okay, I thought everything else.
So that's not like but the last one kind of like I actually did
think of That. But sure, I'm like, a right on.
I can think of two things at once.
A brilliant. I mean, okay.
Not think of its remember two things at once, but, whatever
that wasn't in the Pokédex, I was just mine that can remember
two things at once, and, well, three, things at once now.
Alright, very good Corbin. Excellent job, mr.
Curtis, I believe it's your turn.
Thank you. Thank you.
I'm afraid - not quite as long as Corbin's, but hopefully, it's
still just as convincing as okay Size Doesn't Matter.
Thank you, right. On, is the ideal metal foundry,
worker. See, molten steel is only 2,500
degrees Fahrenheit. Well, below the maximum text
temp of the 3600, Max temperature, hot temperature for
ride on this means it's big Burly body is perfect for
handling. The mass of hot Crucible of
molten metal used in casting. His horn is also perfect for
smashing and crashing down. Scrap metal to be Melted into
the molten steel. Its armored like skin would
protect it in the event of a workplace accident.
Not that there would be one because it's always on its toes
because it does actually walk on its feet and is much smarter and
aware of its surroundings when compared to its Rhyhorn what it
walk on its head. Corbin shit.
Yeah. And the dangers of the
workplace. Thank you very much.
Yeah. Oh okay.
Okay, so sorry, what were your? Sorry, what were the?
So the selling points were what? Again?
Exactly. Okay, so, so I can, it can, it
can it's a Foundry. Worker rights a Foundry worker.
It is a good Foundry worker, because it can resist the
temperature of the molten steel, it can use its horn to crush and
break down the raw material metal that's used in melting and
it's armors good too. Protect it in case there is an
accident but there wouldn't be an accident because ride on is
always on its toes because it's bipedal and and it's much more
smarter than its Rhyhorn counterpart.
So it's always aware of its surroundings and making sure
that it's not doing anything that's going to cause an
accident. Okay. first of all, just because
something doesn't stand on. Its hind leg doesn't mean it
doesn't have to. That's what I said.
I'm like this, I get the, the reference in the it was a, it
was a, it was a play on the expression.
On its toes. Yes.
Certainly a tongue-in-cheek. But yeah, it was.
It was pretty Forest, though. All right.
I thought it was pretty good but okay, it wasn't.
It wasn't that I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Also also I should say it is intelligent but it's not that
intelligent. I don't know if it's really
gonna be purvey. Now damage in the workplace, I
mean, it's smart enough, it's not doing any math calculation,
but it sparked enough like to not bump into a crucible and
spill molten metal all over the place that the foot.
That's not an intelligence thing.
That's just an accident thing. Well I don't know.
Sometimes something that's not intelligence not paying
attention. They're not paying attention to
their surroundings are going to bump into things.
Speaking of intelligence Corbin was am I correct in saying that
you said that your for your pitch that this right on could
build a house for me? It could help carve out the
foundation through rocks. Yes.
Okay. Okay okay.
All right. I just want to make sure that
you're not saying that the ride-on has the intelligence.
Jen's to be able to put together a full house.
No, no, no. Okay great.
Okay, okay. Alright.
So yeah, you both did pretty well, yeah, both clearly
provided include information that we learned in class.
Good job. And definitely had an
understanding of its attributes and abilities.
If if, maybe a little bit, you know, overconfidence and its
intelligence. All right, I suppose is
partially my fault simmer down its I don't think you want that.
I don't know. Who to give the bonus here too,
though. It's really hard.
However totally putting this on myself.
Maybe I should take this away. You should put it on be them.
No, I'm not gonna let you decide who gets the extra bonus point
or not. Be sure.
It's okay Professor. You just pick the fair and
Equitable answer. I always do.
Hmm.
Hello. I feel like I feel like there
would be, I think I'm leaning towards Corbin's.
All right. Uh, because because mr.
Curtis, yes, having the the yeah, I do think you are
absolutely correct that right on would be an excellent metal
foundry worker. The thing is, I don't have a lot
of use for that. However, I could potentially see
myself living near a volcano which Is what Corbin was saying
that, you know, that's what the his right on will facilitate
living near lava. It will protect my home from
lava and it will save my children from lava.
Yes. And you know what that speaks to
me that speaks to me as I can Tony and I am, I am super
worried about my house and children being, you know, killed
by long ago. Have children, how okay.
Well, alright. Okay.
Yeah, no. Please.
If you want to defend yourself by all means, go, I mean I was
just say there's a lot of Pokémon that can help build a
foundation and a house. Thank you very much, dear lot of
sure there's there's there's a lot of that and there's a lot of
Pokémon that are resistant to Lava, okay, so that all those
Pokemon would be very good at as metal foundry, workers to know,
but there's none of them that are big enough and have hands to
carry around crucibles. Also, our have strong enough
abilities to crush and Destroy metal.
Will the men? Then they also wouldn't be able
to pick up a child and move them away to safety.
That's true. But I would argue bright on is
probably not the best one for rescuing children.
I disagree it from lava and I think he is plenty of room on
its back for the whole family, which is which is specifically
what Corvin provided here I can give it.
I'm gonna give it to Corbett. I think again it was it was very
difficult. This time, it's just I think I
think Corbin's has a more has a wider audience.
Yes, thank you so much. Yeah, for everybody who wants to
live on the side of an active? I mean a lot of people do which
I think is more than people who want to have a metal foundry,
there are metal foundries, all over the world.
All of our cities are made of things made out of metal are,
plenty of houses, nearly volcanoes Curtis.
It's okay to accept defeat every now, and then, it's okay.
Okay. Um you're right Corbin, I am
okay. Okay excellent, great job.
Both of you. I'm sure my answer is fair and
Equitable if you think that mr. Curtis deserved to get the bonus
Point. Feel free to send us a Gengar
mail send that 2ww Pokémon at gmail.com or you can find us on
the flying Pokemon theme social network site.
Twitter, we are there WWL Pokémon as well.
But for I close out the class I have to ask, does anybody know
who we will be talking about next week?
It's not the evolved form of ride on there is an evolved form
of right on, but we're not talking about that so I guess
it's a little hint for you. I was gonna I was gonna I was
gonna suggest rhyperior, but I guess not.
Is it? Another rock type know?
Mmm. Okay.
I could give you the typing if that will help sure.
Okay, sure, it's normal. Hmm, the coolest no types,
everybody's favorite type teddiursa.
It's definitely Dunsparce. I'm ready for it, man.
I wish it was Dunsparce. Now, we are learning about
Chauncey the egg Pokemon. Ah, yeah, butbut.
Okay. Isn't there a is?
It isn't happening first, shouldn't we be learning about
happening? Unfortunately, we already
discussed this Of with Ty Rogan's and Hitmonlee and
Hitmonchan. It's not how the Pokedex works.
We all know this, come on Curtis, come on Curtis talked
about it before but that is gonna do it for today's lesson.
So until next time class is dismissed Welcome to the world
of Pokemon. Is it part of the Pokey casters
Network?
