Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob and this is my lecture series on
Pokemon biology, and joining me here today in the classroom.
As always as he always does being as much of an assistant as
he can, is my wonderful teaching assistant, mr.
Curtis a load everybody. Sir.
Curtis. Oh, thank you Professor.
Oh, thank you. You get so excited when just
when I say your name, why are you?
Why are you rubbing your Saint acknowledgment, why are you
rubbing your feet? Oh man.
Yeah it was. Let me say I've had a busy last
few days. I can't wait to present my
results to the class, let's but go ahead and yes I believe we
gave him some science. Some scientists pyramids to do.
So let me go ahead and introduce Our student here, our trainer
and training, if you will Corbin.
Who is a ten-year-old boy. Please say hello to everybody
Corbin High. Not a lot of training more or
less a lot of learning, I guess it's part of training, I mean,
yeah, that's training was what is training?
If not learning. That's you know what?
I'm gonna put that on my wall. Can you get you to say that on
the record on the ice? Everything I say is on the
record, we're recording every every lesson.
I don't know. Okay.
How more on the record I can be. Okay.
All right. Well that's I that's fair.
So what was hold on? Remind me?
What was mr. Curtis has objective.
Again, he had hit a project, I believe.
We told mr. Curtis to figure out how small
you can shrink Wigglytuff down. Oh God, yes, sir.
Hmm, did you write? So did you do it?
Okay. So behold so know what this box
of crayons? Oh okay yeah sure, I guess so.
Okay. All right, so this 12 are this
24 pack of crayons? All right, standard size.
This, how, how would you guys believe?
If I tell you, I was able to get a Wigglytuff to fit in this box.
I would honestly be horrified. I don't think he did it, not
legally. And let me just say like the
Wigglytuff is is I mean it's a means basically.
Okay. I mean you know what is
basically okay? What is basically okay mean.
Well I mean you know it's it's it's fine it was good, he got a
little squished but you know it's it's getting some it's
eating some Pokey chow and some in water and it's okay but it's
alive its alive. Okay.
Yes. All right, hey, that's a lot of
cool better than his track record.
Normally Corbin's mr. Curtis, why did you wink when
you said it's alive? I mean, what do you really were
mean as a lot. I mean, just because I'm alive,
like, it's It's it's moving its breathing and okay, heart is
beating but just because you breathe doesn't mean you're
truly alive, right? I get you to say that on the
record to. I like that one.
I did. I just said it right there.
Okay. What do you want to clean cut?
So you can like use it as a ringtone.
Yeah, I'm using the ringtone. Alright, alright, my phone's
recording. Hold on, hold on.
Yeah, I think that's okay. It's good.
All right. Ready again?
We are. We are already recording all of
this so you don't need to record separate device.
Okay? Ready?
Yeah, just because you why that's such a great quote.
Professor, thank you so much. All right, you know what?
I don't know what we're here to learn about Pokemon.
All right. So we learned that you can make
a Wigglytuff real small. All right.
That's how we know what? Don't tell me.
Yeah, make it cold and you
threatened it a little bit, just a little.
So he's first. You make it cold?
Well, yeah, I mean I either a couple tactics that are used.
We can go into more after class if you're interested Corbin.
But let's just say some of them are not better.
Cast kept off the Wow, I'm gonna bring this recording device.
When you tell me, I need proof to the cops that you're not
handling Pokémon and an ethical way.
I mean, what is that? The Wigglytuff is, the
Wigglytuff is alive. Listen, I'm I'm on the Pokemon
science Ethics Committee. So, I mean, honestly, like you
just made that up, that's not ethical sigh as I go.
Science is really whatever I say it.
Is that you made all that up. You're just bull pooping you.
That's nice. I like, I like that.
You censored yourself. It was very, very thoughtful of
you. Yeah, I did Bailey's.
So that's fucking dumb that you said, come on.
Sorry. All right.
So okay, let's learn about Pokemon.
Do you either of you guys know what Pokemon we are?
Learning about today. Goldie bat and know.
Don't you you took its aquarium bat.
It's Goldie baton, the three Ursa rings.
I love that. I love that, you know, that
fairy tale and it is based on the Pokémon that we're learning
about today. We're learning about her story
about know, nothing about gol gol, dat, Golbat.
Gold is the evolved form of Zubat.
Yeah. Okay.
Alright I'm so what. Okay, what do you think?
I have either of you seen this Golbat in real life before not
in real life but through a Through a painting only only at
a distance. Okay.
So what would you if you if you had to like you know like guess
at what a Golbat looks like. How what would you say?
It probably looks a little bit like Zubat.
I think it's a chunky chunky version exuberant.
It's got eyes. I know that I'm a member that I
know that? No.
Yeah, okay so it does have eyes? What it what do you think?
Do you think the mouth situation is like it's probably got the
same mouth. Yeah, I would say same mouth,
bigger body and I think it's a little antennae are smaller,
okay. Alright, enough guessing I'm
going to go ahead. I have a goal back here because
you can't like walk outside without tripping and falling
over freaking Golbat. So let's go ahead and take a
look at it. Whoa.
Okay, what is going on? Oh, oh, what is going on with
that mouth? Perfect.
Creepy me. You may have noticed that a
Golbat is 90% mouth, but it's pretty much like its entire body
is like a toys your mom. Well she has a lot to say yeah.
Sorry Dipper, that mrs. Mother mrs.
Mother Professor is a very well-spoken lady.
Wait. Yeah.
And if you put them back, If you could not bring you no attention
to her Exploud disease, which you know, it's a very common
disease here in the Kanto region, which you have your
mouth takes up a majority of your body.
Yeah, it's very it has a lot of terrible side effects and so I
would appreciate it if we didn't talk about it here on the in the
class. I mean to make fun of your mom.
That's a disease I've never heard of until now I apologize.
Well I mean who knows you might get it when you get older hope
not anyway. I signed up.
This is a weird-looking mf'er. I'm not gonna lie.
We're looking for mostly wait. Wait, where did it go?
I don't, I don't see it. Okay.
Oh, alright, this is bad. This is bad because we're gonna
learn that goal, bats there. How they attach to their praise,
they use them. They use a stealth method.
So, they're all right. Well, okay, mr.
Chris left, the door open. I'm gonna get up and I'm gonna
close the door and we're not gonna have to worry about this
anymore. Oh my God.
It is on it, is on Corbin's. Next is just sucking all of the
blood out of him. Could you please?
Go ahead? Try.
Pull it. Pull it off, mr.
Curtis. Go pull it off.
Yeah. Great you you could have been
more gentle. You could have been more.
Gentle that hurt. Okay, so Corbin if you could
please please sit down. You've lost a lot of blood.
Yeah I'm sitting down. Did not sit gracefully that kind
of get that look really painful. It's weird.
You fell, you fell into the. You fell into that old
grandfather clock that I keep in the back of the class.
Why do you have this in the class?
I just tell what time it is. Sometimes, although it hasn't
been working in a while Professor.
I'm this gold that is very hard to hold.
By the way, you put up place, if you could pull it.
All right, if I hear, I'll put it back in the boat and the
Pokeball. Here we go.
All right. Okay.
So for the brief moment, that that goal that was out.
What what, what did you notice about it?
Specifically what differences between a Zubat and a goal back
to notice. Mmm blood.
Mmm. Yeah you know much larger mouth,
much larger mouth, we have to assume that you know the Zubat
also eats blood or consumes blood.
But Golbat is definitely a lot more focused on getting that
blood than Zubat is blood-magic just blurs blood on me.
It's Dripping down my neck. Do you not see it?
That's what I'm trying to tell you blood.
Oh, okay. Yeah, okay, maybe, maybe need to
go to the the Chauncey. No, it's fine.
It's fine. I'm not a wuss.
Okay, I'm just gonna wipe it off.
Even like an independent. No, I have, I have some loose
webbing. I have some loose when I don't
want your web and I don't want to come here.
I'm going to, I don't want to know patch it right there on the
other. I don't like the way that feels
but it actually works for some reason and and that that will
gum everything up for the K that will be coming up.
Very absorbing here. Probably need some food to.
It's a kind of like you know, really finish your energy.
So what do you have your? I have some, have some stale
pathans in my bag. You're not gonna believe this
today. Have to be stale mr.
Curtis actually brought some Wigglytuff jerky in Tom's eyes.
No that was just for you. It's weird that you love the fur
on it. I guess you just wanted to you
know like hey that is wiggly. Tigar you say Jigglypuff it's
just a different one. You see.
Wigglytuff was fine. This is I mean it was alive.
It was it was fucking my face experiment.
Listen, do the soft and Luscious for on the Wigglytuff makes
wonderful jerky. It just adds another layer.
That's a touch just smooth. It is it just a good mouth?
Feel okay. So I'm just gonna go ahead and
lay out some of the big differences between Zoo batán
Golbat. All right, one, its ears.
Are a lot smaller and it has eyes.
So it can see and doesn't need to use echolocation nearly as
much as do bat does, okay? Also, the little things that,
you know, the article that we read yesterday on called, on
Zubat, Tails, like thin little Tails, yeah, it appears that
those have turned into like actual feet, huh?
Um, yeah, if I don't, I thought them gripping my shoulders while
sucking out the blood out of my neck.
Yeah. I mean the Those does go bad.
So get you there. Sneaky little guys.
All right, so let's let's learn, let's learn, you know,
everything we can about go bad. So we can prevent a scenario
like this from happening again, okay?
Yeah, don't let it out in the classroom with the do underage
child. How about that?
Well, I mean, listen, you sign the waiver.
So you knew what you were getting into our right?
Starting in the Kanto region. Once it strikes, it will not
stop draining energy from Victim until it gets too heavy to fly,
can confirm? Yeah.
I mean, we had to rip it off of you.
Yeah. Yeah.
So it's like, it doesn't stop when it's full it stops when
like it can't fly anymore. Yeah, is thats.
That's rough. Alright, the next one says, in
attacks in a stealthy manner without warning, it's sharp
fangs are used to bite and suck blood.
All right? So you get that bite and suck
bite suck in that order, byte. And Then suck.
But in the duct and then by no, no.
All right. It's B suck.
All right, everybody say it, bite to eat at Corbin, eat the
banana. Okay, some energy back, okay,
slap it slap a few times there, mr.
Curtis they don't really do that because coming off to do.
Okay. All right, I'm awake.
All right, one more, one more back hand this time.
Oh wow. That's good.
Oh that one hurt that one hurt you guys.
Art. Well, you guys aren't doctors.
So, like, I feel like this is just abuse.
Well, I'm a professor. I feel like that's pretty close.
You're not a brother. You're kind of like a weird.
Uncle doesn't want anything to do with and no, I said up here,
I'm a professor right? Saint Seiya brother.
And and let me just say, I've experienced my selection of
blood draining injuries, should we say?
Yeah, I can see, you know, exactly what to do.
Well, I'm actually glad to have you on My side, mr.
Curtis, thank you. All right, let me read this
pokedex entry. It's really interesting.
I mean, I want to Hype it up too much, but a lot of good
information in this one, it bites its prey and feeds on the
victims energy. Its own blood type changes to
that of its victim. That is insane that I mean,
largely it brings forth a lot more questions than answers, if
you ask me, why Does it do, does it mean that when it sucks
blood? It's like, replacing the blood
in its body? Is that like when it sucks it
in? Is it not eating?
It is it like putting it through its veins, I guess.
Like, because otherwise why would its blood type need to
change? I don't, why would it want to
change this but I don't know. That's weird.
That's weird imaginary thing that is Bonkers if you ask me
and that's the only time it's ever mentioned.
So maybe her researchers were like This seems crazy.
All right, so that does it for the Kanto region.
Let's move on to the Johto region.
However hard its victims. Hide.
Maybe it punctures with sharp fangs and Gorges itself little
blood. Okay, how does it work with a
good? Steelix we'll we'll talk more
about that later on. I think there's some a few but
Pokedex entries that kind of provide more information on what
it can and cannot okay, sure. Okay.
Yeah, this This one, this one kind of gets contradicted.
So this one says, however, hard its victims.
Hide, maybe, but that is not true.
Okay, lies lies. Come on.
Joto, in the next one says, it can drink more than 10 ounces of
blood at once. If it has too much, it gets
heavy and flies. Clumsily bless you bless you
must excuse me. Thank you for, you know, turning
away and doing that into your, into your elbow.
So, because, of course, remember remember we have, we still have
the right there. Roaming bands of 3250 raging
Tauruses attacking and they love sneezes.
They love, they love sneeze spray.
Yeah, we got a social distance. We gotta keep away from each
other, although these tactics they smell Us in packs.
All right, the next one says, when it plunges, its fangs into
its prey, it instantly drawers, and gulps down more than 10
ounces of blood. So like, instantly, like 10,
Don't read away. Yeah, it's kind of weird.
Sometimes it sounds like. It says that only drinks 10
ounces of blood and then it's like too full.
And sometimes it's like, oh, it can instantly drink 10 it in one
gulp it will do 10 ounces. So I'm like it's a little bit
confusing. Well, I can confirm that it took
a lot. I don't know if that's a
quantity. Yeah, blood is blood.
Does a human have? I don't know.
But I feel like when you're 10, you have less blood than and
Adult male? I mean probably I mean, that's
probably true. You're fine cut.
You're such a drama queen. All right.
It was all you for like a couple of seconds, okay, right.
Yeah, that's all it takes. All right, so that does it for
the Johto region. Let's move on to the Hoenn
region. The first one says, goal that
loves to drink the blood of living things.
It is particularly active in the pitch black of night.
This Pokemon of flits, around in the night, skies seeking fresh
blood. That's the thing.
It likes. Fresh blood, not like day-old
dead blood. Yeah, the next one, reads gold
Bat Bites down on its prey with its for fangs and drinks the
victim's blood. It becomes active on Inky Dark
moonless Nights flying around to attack people and Pokémon people
to wow. Yes, nobody is safe.
Nobody is safe right now. They actually seek him out me in
the wild. I mean, like, in here, I make
sense. It just kind of saw in me.
Me out like, you know whatever I mean I think that has like fresh
circulating blood. It's gonna go for right right
right. Anything anything.
I mean I could tell you firsthand.
That's that's true but I mean there was a lot of people in
here so but it did leave and come back.
So that means it went out into the hallway, may have seen other
classrooms and said, you know what, none of them.
Let's go after the kid, we saw in the beginning.
Let's go, huh? I think, well, we know that we
know that goal. Bats are very stealthy, right?
Maybe. Maybe it opened the door to make
you That it went out, but it never actually left.
And so, while you were looking out the door, it jumped on your
back and started, I guess, we'll never know.
It's very crafty, very crafty and clever these these goal
baths. Okay, the next one says, its
fangs easily, easily, puncture even thick Pokemon hide.
It loves to Feast on the blood of people and Pokémon it flits
about in darkness and Strikes from behind.
Find. Yep.
I mean true. Yeah.
Oh yeah that okay. And wonder I wonder if it went
you know. Hey mr.
Curtis just a quick question here.
You do have some fresh circulating blood.
Right. Um, Yeah yeah I want to say yes
or no very quick quick and easy. Yeah.
Let me do have. Is that is that what normal
people have? If I cut you will you bleed?
Yeah. I mean something will come out
if you cut me. Why are you winking again?
I mean, are you winking or is his eyelid just drooping a
little bit? I don't know.
I can't tell that it's so hard to tell with him.
Okay so okay this next one says, if this Oh, and by the way, the
clamps down on its prey with needle sharp fangs and drains
over 10 ounces of blood in one gulp.
All right, so that one, it says, one gulp is 10 ounces of low,
all right, announces the blood. So that that's that's what we
know, one, one, one gulp is 2 ounces of blood, even though
earlier on, we said, it gulps down more than 10 ounces of
blood. So that's a little bit
confusing. Well, it can but it did usually
yes 10 at once. Okay?
Okay, well Source, tank me the human big gulps.
Hello. Yeah.
Yes you are. I mean we do have you know
first-hand knowledge here in front of us today so that's
pretty good. Yeah.
Okay. All right, this next one comes
to us. Believe it or not from the you
Nova region? We actually have something here.
Oh wait, no sorry. I should I should read Sinnoh
first. I was just so excited that you
know about has something new for us.
So let me go ahead and read Sinnoh first.
It loves the blood of humans and Pokémon.
He flies around at night in search of Me In Search of neck
veins. I like, oh, where is that?
Cause it makes it sound like neck.
Veins are just wandering around by themselves.
I know. Oh yeah, it doesn't discriminate
any neck. Vein will do.
Yeah. Well, yes, mr.
Curtis. I was gonna say.
Yeah. I mean, as long as as long as
the person / Pokemon has a neck vein, that's available to be
told that's not possible for somebody or a Pokemon to not
have a neck vein, unless it's like a ghost.
I mean I mean I mean some Pokémon are literally just
heads. I mean Some don't have next.
That sounds that sounds a little rude.
We talked about this before. There's a lot of me.
Does this go back? Have a neck does neck, does
Wigglytuff. Tough have injected is just got
to be a vendor portal. Vein similar to neck vein, and
it may not have any. It probably has veins.
Just not neck, mr. Curtis.
You don't have much of a neck. Do you have a neck vein?
Do you have veins? Yeah, of course I have some
veins. I mean like wait, wait, wait
like if you cut me stuff would come out right?
Are they Your veins though. You have veins that, are they
yours? I've yes, yes, of course.
Okay, well we'll make themselves with baby, I'll move on from
that hesitant answer, continuing in the snow region.
It says, once it starts sucking blood at does not stop until
it's full it flies at night in search of prey.
Okay, I think that. Yeah, that does it for the
center region. Let's move on to the you Nova
region, which actually has something Here, it's sharp fangs
punctured. The toughest of hides and have
small holes for greedily sucking sucking blood.
So it's got holes in the bangs. Okay.
Yeah, the fangs have holes in them through which it sucks.
Blood are seeing a movie. It's a good one.
The fans have holes the things out.
Yeah, I love that. That's right.
A good one. I do love that movie.
It's a weird sequel though. I don't know how it relates to
the hills. Have eyes at all.
Yeah, I don't know. But you know No.
Alright so next we hear from the you know by S 1 from the you
know that is in fact different flitting around in the dead of
night. It sinks its fangs into its prey
and drains a nearly fatal amount of blood so it won't kill you.
It won't kill you from sucking your blood.
So you're such a stop, being a drama.
Queen Corbin, I wish I was dead, but it didn't kill me here just
near 50. I'm not equipped, I'm not
equipped to handle those things that you just said.
Of carbon we do have what we do, have a school counselor if you
want to go to talk to them you can they have a Hypno there?
That puts you into a nice hypnosis state.
Is that going to help with my deep set of trauma?
Potentially, might help you get to the root of it.
Okay. I mean yeah I'm at work here
I'll write you a note and you can go there after class we
might sound alright, sounds good or I could just sniff Gary.
The Shroomish again he always has the fumes to make me feel
really nice but that's that's a temporary fix.
And you know that That's true. I got so small in them.
Okay, I'll stop when I want to I can stop anytime.
Okay. Yeah, I can I just don't want
you right now. I can stop anytime I want.
Okay. So that does it for the, you
know, region. There's something new in the
Kalos region. Let's move on to the Lola
region. It's thick fangs are Hollow like
straws making them unexpectedly fragile.
Hmm interesting. Now this this seems to be
contradicting the fact that I can you know b a puncture, the
height of anything. Right?
It doesn't really make sense. If its fangs are fragile, these
fangs are specialized for sucking blood.
The next one says, sometimes they drink so much blood, they
can't fly anymore. Then they fall to the ground and
become food for other Pokemon. That's, that's what that is,
pretty brutal. They tell it like, it is in the
old our region. They love it back.
Okay, the next one says, every once in a while, you'll see See
a Golbat, that's missing some fangs.
This happens when hunger drives it to try, biting a Steel type
Pokemon. All right, there it is.
So I can't puncture the height of a Steel type Pokemon.
They confirm you go. Wow.
It's so they're their fangs are more fragile, really?
Yeah, the running around with toothless hillbilly, gold bats
that are trying to attack Steel type.
I love it. Yeah.
That's how you know if there's been like a drought of real good
blood recently know they'll start getting more and more
desperate you know? Alright, the last one from a
Lola says they can suck down over 10 ounces of blood and one
go they have been known to drink so much blood that they can no
longer fly. Um, yeah.
True but yeah, let me know this. They love that shit and they go
crazy for it, okay? In the gala region, they say it
loves to drink other creatures blood.
It is said that if it finds others of its kind going hungry,
it's sometimes shares the blood. It's gathered.
Hmm. So it just, it just goes how to
do that. Just because I was like prick,
have some blood and maybe it tells the others to bat or goal.
Bats. Were the prey is, maybe that?
Well, no, no, it's shares. They'll do the dance.
It shares the blood, it's gathered.
All right, so it's gathered this Blood.
Oh God, so spitting, blood and other goal, bats mouth, I guess.
I mean, now that is metal. All right, hot?
That is Is hard as shit. Dude, that is that some wild
stuff. Okay, the next one says it's
feet are tiny but this Pokemon walks skillfully it sneaks up on
sleeping prey before sinking in its fangs and slurping up blood.
Yeah. Oh yeah, yes.
So it walks around. Isn't that crazy?
It doesn't just fly, but it does it like it, like it, like sneaks
up. Somebody walking around tiptoes
if you will. Well, it doesn't have toes.
Those but sure, maybe maybe maybe.
Okay. Now that doesn't for the you of
the regional specific entry is. Now there are some unique
entries here that I would like to read the first to come to us
from ashes Pokédex. This one says Golbat attacking
with its sharp fangs. This Pokemon can drain 300 cubic
centimeters of blood /. B. 31 weight is that that's
about It's about. It's about 10 ounces so it's
okay. All right.
Well, it sounds like a lot more. Yeah, it does sound like a lot
more, but it's the same, it's true.
It's technically, it's 10.14 for to.
You want to be technical about it slightly more than 10 ounces
but I gotcha. Yeah, all right.
Next one here, says Golbat, the back Pokemon.
The evolved form of Zubat. It has four sharp fangs and am.
It's super sonic. Sonic waves more powerful than
zubats, which is interesting because it has eyes Sighs.
So we know it doesn't need those supersonic cries to like for
echolocation, so it's probably just doing that to confuse its
prey. Okay, that's all.
I'm reason it hasn't got you. I mean, bigger mouth, more
sound, right? I mean how that works.
That's the, it's a saying as old as time, right?
Bigger mouth more sound. I don't know how to be more
blunt about it. Don't like that, quote from you
as much Professor. But what?
Bigger mouth more sound? Yeah, one's not as
inspirational. Okay, I'm sorry.
Sorry. That I guess I hit that I'll
turn off the recording the next time.
I say that. Okay.
Alright the last one here comes to us from Don's Pokédex it says
Golbat the bat Pokémon and the evolved form of Zubat being
nocturnal Golbat fly at night in search of prey.
Okay so yeah just like you about these Pokémon are nocturnal.
In fact we said that they fly in the darkest of nights moonless
nights. So yeah, that does it for the
Pokedex entries. I think it's time now that, you
know, we put our knowledge, the Test and read a article here
that I found and see, you know, how much of its true.
How much of it is like pushing the envelope a little bit too
much and how much is Just, blatantly false, right?
All right, so it says, Golbat is a large Blue bat Pokémon with
purple Wing, membranes. It has small eyes with a slit
like people's along with along with tiny, triangular ears, with
purple insides and a massive mouth with mass thing's heavy.
Its massive. That's what I would describe
that as massive, that's pretty big.
Big mouth, the fangs are smaller on a female Golbat.
Supposedly well its mouth seems to be otherwise empty Golbat
occasionally displays a long purple tongue.
It has short legs. Yeah.
Long purple tongue like so I guess this one has taste maybe I
don't know, I guess it does but no no still no, no still no
knows this. Can't smell.
Okay, it has short legs with long tiny feet despite this goal
that can also walk skillfully on the ground, gold bats have sorry
about that. Go bats fangs, have hollow tubes
specialized for sucking blood while they are strong enough to
pierce thick hide, they are also unexpectedly fragile.
There are sorry. Excuse me.
There are some goal bet that have missing fangs as a result
of Our hunger fueled attempt to try drinking blood from a Steel
type Pokemon. Right.
It feeds on the blood of both Pokémon and humans and is
capable of drinking over 10 ounces of blood in one sitting
right? Golbat drinks, so much blood
that it's blood type will change to that of its victim following
a feed, doesn't make any sense at doesn't make any sense.
It's true. I guess it's in the Pokédex
Pokedex is but doesn't make any sense.
Yeah. But it's what.
I don't know why I would need to do that.
But whatever, maybe it's just It's a side effect.
It doesn't need to just happens. Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe anyways it says it is also gluttonous occasionally gorging
itself to the extent that it becomes too heavy to fly leaving
itself, vulnerable and turn gold.
That is also willing to share gathered blood with other
members of its kind, that are hungry.
Golbat is nocturnal and can be found quite easily in caves.
Okay. What do you think?
I think more truth than false more false and truth.
I mean that all checked out it I could do that.
I'd like to I'd like to more smooth.
I'd like to know more about. Why go bats blood type changes
to the blood type of its prey. But I mean, yeah, I mean, like
that means that the literal blood and its veins is being
changed. Completely to a different type
like that's pretty silly replenish.
Yeah, that's weird like the mechanisms within its body to be
able to handle that. Kind of change it like I mean,
honestly that that's like you could write a whole book on just
that part of but nobody has yet. Nobody has an it's not even in
really in any of the Pokedex entries.
Besides one, where it mentions it offhand Professor, it's time
to step up and do the work and write a book on that instead of
just reading everybody else's work, there are a lot more
interesting Pokemon that I could write a book on then Golbat, so
I think I think I'll keep waiting.
That's right. Okay.
So that's that's all the information that we have on.
Go back, I think it's time to move on.
And do a pop quiz. They're gonna say gonna give me
a treat. Damn it.
No, no. You would, you talk about the
trick. The, the quizzes, the tree
Corbin was a treat from me. What?
Other treat, what? Other would be such a great
treat for your brain and it's not just another banana would be
nice. Well, I mean I have you can have
this banana if you want it. I'll sweet.
Thanks man. Appreciate that.
Thank you. Okay.
So go ahead. Put away your bananas and your
Pokedex has just gave it to me, put it away.
A Corvette. I don't want to see it.
I'm putting my banana way. All right.
Thank you be more. Careful where you bring out your
banana. I would not dream of bringing
out my banana in class, okay? And make sure you have your
Rotom laptops out and your Pokedex is a way they're out,
they are away. Okay.
Question number one, why is it uncommon for gold baths?
And Cliff fairies to meet mmm-hmm.
This is a good question because it doesn't explicitly.
Stata in the Pokédex but we have all the information.
Okay. Both of the answers are in the
question. Of course was why is it uncommon
for goal bats? And Cliff areas to me Corbin
responded with because Cliff areas like to hang out in the
Moonlight and goal. Bats prefer to thrive on
moonless nights. Hmm and mr.
Curtis responded with cleft fairies and goal.
Bats, don't want meat because Clefairy is love to go out on
night with powerful Moon's. Power Rubble.
Oh oh wow, wow wow I sound like a roll of Boom.
Good impersonation. Thank you.
I was I was going for. That was that was that was my
relative impersonations. That was good.
That's good. It was also an Infernape
impression. They're very similar while gold.
Bet I'll go bats aren't active. Well, go go.
Bats are active on moonless Dark Nights Rises.
Okay, so yeah you guys Both correct.
They it's unlikely for them to meet because Cliff areas are on
nights with full moons. Where goal bats are on nights
with new moons. Yes, no moons.
Very good. I'm very impressed.
Okay, question number two what type of Pokemon can't go back
drain blood from and why? Wow, that was that was fast.
It's almost like it's almost like no time passed in.
Tween. When I asked the question none
you guys gave me your answer. It's amazing.
It's like you was ready to go Dialga like messing with the
time stream again probably potentially man, I can't wait to
talk about that. I go well we'll get there soon.
Alright, so Corbin responded with Golbat.
Cannot drain blood from Steel type Pokemon due to the hard
hides breaking their teeth. Curtis responded with Golbat
can't drain blood from Steel type Pokemon.
Because when they try, Bite them, they end up hurting their
fangs. Okay.
So you guys both kind of get a real answer to the first part is
yes, Steel type Pokemon. They cannot drain blood from
Steel type Pokemon because it will break their frontal teeth.
Now, there was something a bit more specific.
I was hoping you could very quickly to add on, can you tell
me type into the, into the answer window here?
Why are their teeth so fragile? See, I'm a God.
I'm being so generous, right? And you are, you're being too
good today? It's weird.
You guys are taking longer to answer this than you did for the
full question. Okay, okay, mr.
Curtis and has give me his giving me his answer.
So Corbin said because their teeth have tubes in them and mr.
Curtis says because they have hollow tubes inside.
Yes, that's exactly correct. They use those tubes to suck up
the blood. Okay, now question number 3.
Now think about this one very carefully.
Okay, what is go bats preferred method of approaching their
prey? How did they like Hello there
like to get up on on that neck vein.
All right, both of the answers are in.
So Corbin has said that goal, bats, preferred method of
approaching their prey. Is it sneaks up on the Sleep?
Pray sleep. Well, what well you said sleep,
praise. I'm I'm at sleeping while
walking behind it and then jumping on its back and sucking
at the neck of Vain trust me. I know he added that part at the
end. That wasn't me.
He said he said, I trust me, I know.
All right. Curse is spotted with gold.
Bats are sneaky boys. And that's it.
That's all he said. Okay, he all he goes on to say,
they love to sneak up on sleepy. Pray, even on their tiny feet.
Now, when you say they're tiny feet and you mean golbez tiny
feet or the prey is Tiny. Oh, go back to tiny feet.
Okay, okay, alright, so I'm double check to make sure yes,
the answer is that they're very stealthy and they walk up on
sleeping prey. I'm honestly, I am very happy
that you got. I mean, I stealthy.
I knew you guys were gonna get, but the fact that you I figured
that you remember that they walk up to them, and that the prey is
normally sleeping. Very good.
I'm very relevant to thank you. What can I say?
We're doing all right. Yes, so yes, full marks there
for both of you. Okay.
All right, one last question. Now, this is an essay question
so get ready to start typing. This question, of course, it
doesn't have a specific answer. I just want, I just, you know, I
just want to see what you guys think and what you come up with.
So the question is, With the information we've been given on
goal, bats, biology and hunting habits.
What Pokemon do you think is goal, bats, ideal, pray, and
why? So based on things like, you
know, it like sneak up on them and used to be able to puncture
their neck veins or whatever veins.
So things like that, keep in mind and you can you can say
Pokemon that we haven't talked about yet.
You know, if there's a Pokémon that, you know, of that, you
could be a really good prey. Yeah, that I thought of one, I
thought of Immediately honestly. Okay.
Oh, great, excellent. All right, so both of the essay
answers are in. So in case you forgot the answer
to the question was with the information we've been given on
goal bats, biology and hunting habits.
What Pokemon do you think is goal, bats, ideal, pray, and
why? All right so Corbin responded
with It. Go bats.
Ideal prey is easily a Snorlax. Go back prefers.
Beeping off. Hello, Pokemon.
What is the answer? What is the answer?
Go back for free sleeping. Slow Pokemon Snorlax, sleep
heavily and Golbat, can easily sneak up on it and attack the
neck easily. Since it usually sleeps on spec,
not necessarily true. Well, you know, you never know.
You took some Liberties. There Snorlax is also very slow
and fat, and that that's just rude.
I think. Hey, sorry.
There likes us, very slow and fat and can't easily reach the
goal that to get it to stop attacking also, Snorlax is have
a ton of blood in their big bodies and go bath can easily
repeatedly attack the same prey. All right.
You know, I think that's very good.
The only thing I will say is that I don't think it's true
that they normally sleep on their back.
I think they like to, I don't know man, I've seen I've seen
some straw relaxes in my day and they like to sleep on their
backs and I was on the side. But my point is that it really,
I mean, I guess I think it's look the whole reason is, it's
got a big back it can easily latch onto well I think this
bill that was that's thing is gonna say it's not necessarily
again. Go by doesn't go for the back it
goes for the neck right right. Girls for the Snorlax.
Yeah it's got a big neck. It's got a lot of more snow.
It doesn't really have much of a neck and has a head kind of
plopped on top of it. Thank God, it's got a neck.
It's gotta mean it. Probably there's probably a
place where as you back can latch onto you.
And that's true. And I will say you are very
likely a. Yes, they sleep a lot.
And go best lover and they have a lot of blood.
So those are two both very good things there.
I think I think Snorlax is a very acceptable answer so thank
you Corbin. Second answer would be a lowland
exeggutor. That was let's see that's a lot
is what I was gonna say that Dolan executory would be a
second answer because it's but that Pokemons all neck.
It's also now. Yeah, it's all neck.
Okay. So let's go ahead and free.
He'd read mr. Curtis has wonderful answer.
It says go bats. Favorite /.
Ideal prey is miltank. Miltank is a diurnal Pokemon.
That would be asleep and easy. Prey for the nocturnal Golbat.
Now, I believe diurnal means that it's a wake in the morning.
It's the twins. Most active.
Yeah. When's it start.
Now, it's open during its awake during the day.
Yes. It's the opposite.
It's the opposite of nocturnal. Okay.
I was like how do you know that it's diurnal?
You're not basing that he is nothing but your right is
diurnal is daytime. Specifically milk tank is
diurnal Pokemon. That would be asleep and easy
prey for the nocturnal Golbat and an adult.
And they'll tell miltank has roughly 1,000 280 ounces of
blood inside in parentheses not that I know from personal
experience already. Shut up.
No, I don't know. He's making that up.
He might have tested know that that's that's, that's correct.
Okay, don't ask him how not that.
I know from personal experience. But yeah, Jesus Christ, it goes
on to say which means it is a plentiful source of food for
many goal. Bats, the skin of a milk tank is
nice and soft to be welcoming its small children.
Wow, soda, Is very easy on the goal that spangs finely milled
tanks. Nutritious milk allows for the
unwary prey of gold bats to recover quickly before the goal.
Bats. Next nighttime, Feeding Frenzy,
nice. Oh yeah.
It can, it can replenish itself will, take also has nipples.
Yeah, don't know how, I don't know why that would be some for
the go bad to play with while it, you know, drains and thank
you. So muc you find sure whatever.
Okay, yeah. I mean, That's a pretty good
answer. I don't know if a hundred twenty
eight, twenty eight ounces of blood is, you know, factual or
not, one Wipeout know, is it's what 1280 ounces?
Well it's on a thousand. Yeah, on on average.
Yeah. Okay, so you know what, I'm
gonna get em. Give you passing marks for that
answer, I don't know. I kind of think I liked Corbin's
answer a little bit better, I think Snorlax is a very good,
very cute toys especially because of how much it sleeps.
And so go back and really go never if If it's getting a late
night or I guess a midday kind of hankering for food if you
just go out and, you know, go to its local Snorlax and just suck
a little yeah, more surface area to work with.
Oh yeah, but yeah, but I think good answer is all around but
that does it for today's lesson does does anybody know what
Pokemon we will be talking about next time?
Oh no, I actually have no idea. Wait Diglett?
No, you're right you're right you do have no.
Idea mr. Curtis you'd like, would you
like to take a stab at it? I was going to say Clefairy
again but I think that's not. Oh, let me just say this.
You say this. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait. Let me just say this.
I find it odd that neither of you guys know.
Is it is it Dragonite? Is it now us?
What? What the fuck is a knows?
What you mean a he Nashua? And the the water-type Pokémon
No, it's not that. Yeah, in fact it's you know like
it's not quite I guess it's not quite odd.
You guys don't know the the Pokemon frequently.
So it's really only AA dish. Oh, I'd like now we're learning
about Oddish. All right thing about oddest,
the grass / poison-type Pokémon. Yes, they'll be an interesting
change of pace. Instead of a poison flying will
be learning about a poison grass.
All right, I think every grass type Pokemon we've talked about
so far has also been poisoned I guess the only ones we talked
about so far besides are the Bulbasaur line and the feels
like it was so long ago, it was a lifetime ago.
I was just a ten-year-old boy. Then you're well, you're still a
ten-year-old boy. That's true.
