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, of course, my wonderful teaching assistant,
Mr. Curtis. Curtis, how you doing today?
Well, professor, thank you so much for, you know, inviting me
to class today, for including me in your intro for, you know,
just, you know, you know, including me.
That's. What I'm saying, I mean, you
know I am contractually obligated to do that, right?
It's not because I want to. Clone knows I don't want to.
But you but you want to right? You want to right, Right
professor? I mean, I want to inform the
virtual students of who's in the classroom and you know, I guess,
I guess adding the wonderful to it is kind of, you know, maybe
misleading. Anyways, maybe, you know,
sometimes I lie when I do these intros.
Anyways, also joining us here in the classroom today is the
amazing, incredible and my favorite in class student of all
time. Corbin, how you doing?
Corbin I. Don't like that you just said
that you lie and then you say all these nice things about me,
but I'm going to turn my brain off and pretend that it's real.
Hello everybody buddy, good to be here.
The sole trainer for 200 plus lessons.
Now how? How do you train your soul?
You know, resilience and a lot of pain and a lot of heartbreak.
A lot of I trained my soul cold waterfalls.
Right, that too. And I trained my soul by calling
Dawn and having her continue to block me even when I get
different phone numbers. Yeah, I was gonna say yeah, I've
gotten. About 7 phones in the last three
weeks, so no wow. Whoa, how are you doing that?
With whose money? Let's just Donnie J's been
working overtime back at the school at Saffron City.
He is a he's working over a lot for me to get new phones.
I'm starting to think it's not worth it now because she just
keeps blocking every phone that calls her so.
You can block more than one phone number.
What? Corbin?
Probably. Yes, I could tell you first hand
you can. Well, Corbin's disappointing and
sad life non withholding. We have some Gengar males here
that I would like to read and just jump right into reading
these Gengar males if that's so good.
Let's do it. Yeah, let's do it.
Let's do. It so this Gengar male comes to
us from Eclipse and they say the future Pokémon master.
So it's good, good to have aspirations just for the job
that you want, not for the one that you have.
So their Gengar male says Hello Professor Jacob, Mr. Curtis and
little baby Corbin. Hey, hey, I'm not a I'm 10 years
old, little. Baby.
Corbin I've been 10 for a while now and I'm not a baby.
Well you'll you'll see why they say my name is Eclipse and this
is my first Gengar male. I've been listening to your
lesson since the Lady Ball lesson and you have helped me so
much. Help me learn so much about
Pokémon and help me refresh my skills.
I'm eleven years old, still older than Corbin.
See. That's why you're a little baby,
all right? Throw a little brag about it.
That doesn't make a difference one year.
Who cares? They say my first Pokémon was an
EV, then I nicknamed Monarch. I get 100% for everything.
I think they're saying that you know when they take quizzes and
tests they always get a 100 and they aren't declaring, making
making a statement saying from now on I will get 100% for
everything. 100%. When the tests are, you know,
pick the blue crayon and not the red one.
Whoa, whoa, 11 years old? Well Corbin, you seem to fail my
tests sometimes, so what's that saying about you?
Yeah, because they're hard. I'm saying that eclipses tests
are probably easy. No, they're specifically
referring to the tests in this class, Yeah.
I think yeah I've seen eclipse grades and Eclipse is cheating a
straight A student so I mean. A cheating thing?
How can a virtual student possibly cheat Corbin doesn't
make any sense. They find their ways, I'm sure.
Anyways, so they say I get a 100% for everything.
That's thanks to my early studies when I was 5.
See. And that's it's because you're
lazy, Corbin. You weren't studying when you
were five like Eclipse. Yeah, why weren't you studying
when you were? 5 because I was putting blocks
in my mouth like every other five year old.
I don't think every five year old does that.
Clearly Eclipse doesn't do that. God you guys need to chill out.
I couldn't even talk at 5 yet. So Eclipse says.
I personally think beads rule is a great starter bug type and
spinner rack is the best. I mean, if Corbin can, you know,
get over his, you know, whatever it is that he's got going where
he just kills every B drill he sees.
I OK not dead, Rosalie confirmed.
It's not dead. That B drill was just, you know,
a little out of it. It was it was back in the wild
free. No, a little EP.
Thank you. But spinner rack is the best one
and that is important for the for you know that to be put out
on the table, you know, for everybody to see and to
acknowledge, OK. Yeah, and now and now Curtis is
like, you know, slowly putting a Gold Star on the table.
I'm just getting my little baggie out here and getting
ready to maybe give you a Gold Star.
We'll see how this goes. Eclipse says I hope I can write
an essay on the God of Pokémon. Maybe, maybe not.
You never know. Hope you have a good day.
We already did a lesson on done sparse.
Yeah, we did do. We did do the God of Pokémon and
we also did Ariados. And her name is Annette and she
works in the office. Yeah, and when she gets.
BCLCBCAGSC that's. It when she gets me the copies
that I request on time then I think she is a God for sure.
That's right, she's a God. And I.
Is. This where you thought this is
gonna go, Corbin? Is this where you thought?
Is that how you thought it was gonna end up?
No, keep going anyways. No, no, no, please no more.
Let's do it, OK? And that's enough dung.
Dung, dung, dung Dun. Curtis, Mr. Curtis, save your
jazz scatting for after class. Yeah, we we told you no scatting
in class. No scatting in class if I can't
rap you. Can't scat that was T-shirt that
was that was hurting my throat and hold on, I need to take a
quick dude on my flask here. Yeah, that's SAP will help.
So much better. OK.
Then Eclipse continues their Gingar mail by saying PS my team
is Monarch. Who was the EV sword shield.
OK, I don't know the Pokémon sword and shield.
OK so you so you have a sword and shield that you fight
alongside with your Pokémon. That's very.
Cool, that's brave, especially for an 11 year old.
Right. Maybe like a aegis aegis slash?
Is that what it's called? No, it's sword Shield.
It's sword comma, Shield comma. So that's two Pokémon, OK.
So they have their Pokémon Monarch, and then they have a
sword and a shield that he equips.
I'm sure there's some chainmail in there.
Yeah, you'll say. There's that armor, definitely a
theme that Eclipse has going here.
There's a, there's a medieval kind of royal theme going
because their next Pokémon is named King Power.
King Power. OK, yeah, that now they do tell
us which one that is. That is a a eternus.
Eternus. Eternus.
Yep.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm getting, I'm getting a report.
Yep. Yeah.
Now Eternitus. Eternitus.
OK.
And they also have a meridion and a coridion.
Those are Pokémon, those aren't just made.
Up. No, those ones are real.
Yeah, yeah, of course they are. And they're nicknamed Future and
Past, which is pretty. I mean, makes sense.
OK, got them. And then they say goodbye again.
Goodbye. So thank you so much Eclipse for
that wonderful Gengar male. Very very interesting and
exciting read. I'm looking forward to that
essay on the God of Pokémon. I can't wait to find out which
Pokémon you think is a God of Pokémon.
And let me, let me just let me just scooch in here real quick.
Let me just scooch in here real quick.
Here we go. He's he's, he picked up the
recording device and is moving it over to the corner.
I'm just scooching over this little Gold Star over to your
desk. Skip your scoots.
Oh, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
OK, I'm back. I'm back.
I'm back.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I just had to Scotch Scotch a
little Gold Star in there for the for the spinner rack
recognition. You got to be so, so secretive
about it. Yeah, why did you, why did you
take the recording device into the corner to give the gold, to
put the Gold Star on a desk that they can't even pick up anyway?
He tried. No, I, I saw him.
He tried to like put it into like the the SD port of the
recording device, right? Yeah, that's not how it works.
That's not how it works. How else am I supposed to get
them the Gold Star? Well, the students aren't in the
recording device, Mr. Curtis. Yeah, but the recording gets to
the students, right? So as long as I.
Can I mean the gold? Star in this in the recording
then. He's got me there.
There you go, right? OK, All right, so that's going
to do it for Gengar males. If you want to send a Gengar
mail to us, you could you know, have a chat with me and the
professor. Or me.
Gore Corbin I guess. I don't know if he can type yet,
but. Not me.
You guys want to send me some? Cool artwork I appreciate.
Yeah, Cruise only responds to DELE Birds direct messages, so
you gotta do that. But yes, you can send it to
wwwpokemon@gmail.com. All right, all right, enough of
that. It's time to get into the
lesson. Does anybody know who we're
talking about this week? It's a Pokémon in case you
weren't sure. Right, I figured you see what.
We're gonna talk about Did You I, professor?
No, never is, never will be. It's the evolved form of the one
from last week, Teddy Ursa, right?
Yes. Expand.
Is it Ursa Moon? Something like that.
Ursa Ursa stars, Ursa band. Ursa necklace.
Yes, we are learning about Ursa necklace this week.
Oh, wait, no, sorry, sorry, no, sorry.
There's. A Luna, thank you.
Sorry, there was a smudge. There's a smudge on my paper
here. We're learning about Ursa Ring
this this week. I knew it was a jewel or.
Something kind of some kind of ornament of some time.
We're not going straight to Ursa Luna.
Why would we? I don't know.
I thought that was the next. One, it'd be a cool thing where
we skip evolution. That's true.
OK, So has anybody has anybody seen an Ursa ring before?
I mean, Curtis, I know you have. Not in person, no.
I. That's honestly probably.
Far from ursa rings that I've seen in person.
They're pretty scary, they're. They're pretty tall.
They're pretty. Hibernating, right?
So you're not gonna bring 1? Out I wouldn't really, you
really shouldn't ever be in close vicinity of one, but I
have one here today. Here he is.
No. Well, you don't need to bring
that out. You don't need to.
Oh, Professor. Oh.
OK, say everybody. Say hello to Keith.
Hi, Keith. Keith.
Hi, Keith. Hi, Keith.
Hello. How are you?
The name sounds familiar. Keith, you just stay over there.
Keith, let me just Scotch a little bit back here real quick.
I'm gonna. Check in my notes, Keith.
That is the name of one of our patrons that that makes.
Sense. Wow.
I mean, Keith, do you donate to the Patreon?
He's shaking his head No, he's saying no.
Well, that's what he's saying. He's saying no, wait, wait.
Hold on. Yeah, OK.
Now he's saying he doesn't have money because he is an Eartha
ring. Right?
That makes sense. He lives inside a pokey ball
that I keep in my desk. OK, OK.
I also cannot imagine donating what little money I have to a
Patreon, but hey guys, do it anyway.
Yeah, no, he he wants to donate it to a phone company so he can
get multiple cell phones. Ah, that makes sense.
Hey guys, keep donating on Patreon so I can get more cell
phones to call Don, thank you so much.
Yeah, the the, we call it the Don Fund.
The Don Fund. That's right.
That's also a Pokémon Don fan. Whoa.
Hey, we're learning about that Pokémon next week.
Are we really? Oh my.
Gosh, no, I lied. I don't know why I lied like
that. We're.
Not kind of lying a lot today. I don't really.
Well, what? Name one other time that I lied.
At the beginning when you said that I was cool and incredible.
And you don't know, maybe you are cool and incredible.
Sorry. OK, sorry.
We we've been talking and Keith has been kind of wandering
around the classroom. Hey, what you doing, Keith?
Hey. Stand in there, Keith.
Yeah, he's really going underneath the floor boards near
Keith Curse's desk. What are?
You. Keith.
What's going on? No.
What is that? Keith?
What's that, buddy? What's?
That that's not. For you.
Is that a snack? Is.
That a snack? Mr. Curtis, I told you not to be
hiding snacks in the classroom. Found some of my jerky my.
Spinner jerky. Oh, he likes that.
Yeah, he's going for it. Oh my God, he's going for it.
Yes, that's that's a pretty common trait for Ursa Rang's.
They like they, they have a very, very good nose and they
can locate food, hidden food pretty much anywhere.
So that's why, that's why a lot of people use earth rings to
keep themselves on a diet. Professor.
Professor, please. Can you, can you, can you pull
them back? They're they're trying to go to
my bag here and that's just a no, no zone.
You don't go in, Mr. Curtis's bag, what you got?
Yeah, What's it got? Well, that is that.
That's a full, that's a full apple pie that he pulled out of
your. Oh, were you gonna bring us pie
today, Mr. Curtis? That's very kind.
I was gonna. I was.
Gonna. Yep, well Dang.
Right down the Hatch, too. That Keith ate it right up.
No, Keith, No. You know, I think I'm going to
keep, keep Keith. That's hard to say.
I'm going to keep Keith out. Keep Keith.
Out. We're supposed to be on a diet.
We're going to let Keith kind of just just snoot around and see
see what other snacks you can find.
Corbin, do you want to give it a quick description of Ursa Ring
before we before we move on to the Poke X entries?
So when? Keith is on all fours.
It doesn't look that big, but when Keith does stand up, you
know when he when he first came out of the Pokeball, he was very
intimidating and stood up. He looks like he's just under 6
feet or so. He's much taller than me, but
he's this big brown furry thing, like I said, kind of bipedal on
two legs. Sometimes it goes down on all
four, but it's got these long arms with these long razor sharp
claws. It's got 4 claws on each hand
and three on the feet. It does have a little tail.
It's very cute. It's whole body is brown, brown
fur and everything. It's got a cute little nose and
cream colored mouth. And honestly, there's like a
little cream color in its ears. But also it's the most notable
feature. And I guess how it gets its name
is the big cream colored ring that is on its chest and belly.
There's this big old circle here and I mean, that's pretty much
it. There are these interesting
little like furry bits coming off the shoulders.
It looks he's wearing shoulder pads, which, Keith, you don't
need it. Your shoulders are great, I'm
sure without the shoulder pads, but hey, you've evolved them for
a reason so I'm not going to judge, but that's pretty much.
It yeah to shrug off the haters. Shrug off the Oh T-shirt.
Shrug off the haters. Yes, there's an Ursa ring on it
with some gold chains and stuff. Yeah, there we go.
Also, I do I think. I think you said 4 claws on
each. I think it's actually 5 on each.
Hand Yeah, there's definitely 5. I can't count professor I'm so.
Sorry, it's fine, it's fine. I don't.
I don't want people to see an earth ring and be like, well,
this one's weird. It's got 5 claws now.
They all have 5 claws. Or like it's OK to mess with it
because it only has four claws? If it had five you.
Know yeah 5 is my limit of. Claws.
So if you if 5 is your limit, just know that it does have 5
claws, so don't mess with. It now I can't help but notice
that Keith is very close to my desk right now and really
sniffing around up here. Mr. Got in there, Mr. Curtis.
You. You wouldn't happen to have
hidden snacks in my desk, would you?
Oh no, he's. Opening the door, Professor, I
wouldn't. I wouldn't have done that.
No, no, that's a whole. Pizza.
That's a whole pizza. No.
Mr. Curtis, did you convert my desk into a pizza oven?
No. That's why I keep hearing a Ding
sound every so often. The second.
Time you've done that this month what's your deal and making
things I. Told you to.
I told you to stop making things in the pizza ovens.
I just want to feed. I just want to feed the
professor pizza. Your desk was a pizza oven.
The the cabinet was a pizza oven.
The sink was a pizza oven. Mailbox was a pizza oven I.
Ran the mailbox into a pizza. Mailbox was a pizza.
He did. I ran into it.
I I thought I was going to get a letter from my mom and turns out
there was a little baby pizza in there.
A little baby. Pizza.
Fresh hot pizza. And that and that was for you.
I haven't heard from my mom in a while, but I I I left that
mailbox with a full belly and I was very happy.
Wasn't yeah, isn't that wasn't that nice when you, you know,
you went to your you went to your mailbox suspect to get mail
and instead you got a nice warm meal out of it.
Did she appreciate my gift to you?
Yeah, it actually was a nice surprise.
OK, but like you, when you go to the mailbox, you specifically
want mail. You want the mail, You don't
want, you know, pizza, but now Commission.
Unless you ordered pizza I guess.
But now I'm gonna mission, I'm gonna, I'm gonna Commission Mr.
Curtis to build a pizza box next to the current pizza box that
I'm making him convert back to a mailbox.
That makes sense. OK, all right, so you so you
want me to build a a box from scratch to replace the one I
drink? Right.
So it's very I want you to build another.
I want you to build another one that looks like a mailbox, but
it's a pizza, another pizza oven like the one that you made, like
a small one. Just leave.
The one I already converted into a pizza oven of an A pizza oven
and. Build another mailbox.
You should build a new one that's.
A Yeah, the guys who are converting it back into a
mailbox just make a new mailbox. No, I think you should.
No, I think that complicates it, I think.
He liked where his mailbox was. Yeah, I liked the original
mailbox and I liked the way it looks in its design and how
aerodynamic it is. I kind of want my what are we
talking about? I don't know.
I think what we should be talking about though are Pokedex
entries. That's fair, we could talk about
my mailbox pizza oven later. Yeah, later, definitely.
Well, look, we'll definitely remember.
That we'll carve out some time for it.
Yeah, for sure. All right, so let's read some
Johto Pokedex on trees, if that's OK.
I'm fine with that. The first one says although it's
a good climber, it prefers to snap trees with its four legs
and eat fallen berries. That's a good climber.
Like, trust me, it's a good climber.
It just doesn't want to climb. It can climb anytime it wants,
right? It doesn't.
Want. Yeah, whenever it wants to, it
can. Yeah, when it's not hunting down
my snacks, Keith stashes in this in this classroom.
OK, but that's another thing that Ursa rings do because the
next entry here says with its ability to distinguish any
aroma, it unfailingly finds all food buried deep underground.
So like, that's just, that's just ursa ring nature.
You can't get mad at Keith for that.
Keith, listen, I spend so much time in this classroom, I've got
to be able to eat. That's that's an important part
of Mr. Curtis biology. Now he's going over there.
Now he's like he's been stiffing around Corbin's.
Backpack the last. Like, I don't, I don't have
anything in there. God, he felt a cupcake.
God Dang it, come on, say that for later.
Hey, that was hey, Keith. Keith, you have to give that
cupcake back to Corbin. That's Corbin's cupcake.
And we don't take other people's food.
Wow. Except for when it's.
You don't take other food. I don't know what you're talking
about, Mr. Curtis. I'm just a boy.
I need my cupcakes to survive. He's just a boy he needs.
He's a growing boy. Why he needs that cupcake.
You know he's a little cupcake boy.
I'm. A girl he is.
You know what, Professor? You're right.
He's a little cupcake boy. He's a little baby cupcake boy
and he needs that cupcake. A little bit of the frosting
here. Why don't you take some of the
the whole time you get the whole top off?
I'm just looking at the cake. It's the worst part.
I want the cup, not the cake. I know that's the best part of
the cupcake is the cake. Well, here you have it.
That was good. You threw it right into his open
mouth. He didn't even chew it.
I. Just I just inhaled it as I am.
What to do with cakes? Well, well, Curtis is digesting
the cup, the cakeless cup. I'm going to read this next
book, Next century. That's just autobiography, the
cakeless. Cup for sure.
It was. It was the oh gosh, it was the
cupless cake is what it was. Oh, yes, the sorry, it was all
the cake. Yeah, keep me on track.
All. All cake, No.
Cup. I'll put that on a T-shirt.
All cake, no cup. That's a That'd be a great
T-shirt. Oh God, that's a model.
That would sell like hot cakes or hot cups or hot cups.
Everybody's laughing. Wait, wait, should we not AT
shirt maybe like a coffee mug or like a like a like a like a
travel cup or something? I have a lot of merch ideas for
all Cake no cup, but I don't think I can see any of them in
class. OK, well, I guess e-mail them to
me or Gengar, mail them to me. All right.
The next entry here says although it has a large body, it
is quite skilled at climbing trees.
It eats and sleeps in the treetops.
It's a little bit of a counter to what the first entry says.
So I feel like it'd be too heavy to sleep up in a tree.
How much does how much does a teddy, sorry an Ursa ring weigh
to be? Known good question.
Any any guesses? I'm thinking probably £450 at
least. £450. I was gonna say at least at
least 100 lbs. Think so.
OK, At minimum. At minimum.
So Mr. Curtis is the closest without going over.
Thank you. 277.3 lbs. Nice.
OK, that's. A big so he wasn't that close,
but he was the closest without going over he's pretty heavy.
It's it's it's a pretty heavy Pokémon hair cross would still
have no issue throwing it. But but yeah, I mean, I guess it
can get up into like the bigger trees and sleep in the treetops.
Definitely not small trees because they would snap.
I mean all right, of course. Let's move on to the Hoenn
region. The only entry here says in the
forests inhabited by Earth's ring, it is said that there are
many streams and towering trees where they gather food.
This Pokémon walks through its forests gathering food every
day. Every day it wanders.
Towering trees a requirement but yeah.
So streams and trees is where earth ring can get food.
#Streams and trees. Streams and trees.
OK, screams and Yep, Scres. Got them.
Got them the center region here. They say in its territory it
leaves scratches on trees that bear delicious berries or
fruits. That bear delicious berries or
fruit. Nice.
Yeah, get it, Bear, because it's like berries.
Nice. Nice.
Because it's like a Berry. You get it.
Nice. I get it dude, we can just.
We could probably just call Ursaring a bear because of how
many berries it eats. Wow, you're so silly, Professor.
Yeah, we can just call. How about that we call you Bear
Boy. Bear, bear boy.
Bear Boy Keith the bear boy. Keith is definitely a bear boy,
all right, but that's the only entry here in the center region.
You know what just copies the center region?
Kalos copies other regions as well I believe.
You Kalos. I know one of these days we're
gonna get a new Kalos entry. I cannot wait.
But it's not today. There's nothing in Alola.
There's nothing in Galar. There is a Hisui entry, though.
He says when the cold season arrives in Hissui, this Pokémon
will wander fields and mountains alike in search of its favorite
berries. Ursa Ring's hunger during this
time makes it a ferocious danger.
Yeah, listen, Keith, I get it. When I get hungry, I'm also a
ferocious danger. Yeah, you get real hangry, AM.
I right. Not me when I'm hungry.
That's right. That's right.
OK, he's laughing. He's laughing so hard, lapping
and also reaching into the wall and pulling out a Why is that?
I think that's AI think that's like a sandwich of some kind.
That's just like a submarine sandwich.
Oh my God. Oh gosh.
Dude, Key Leonard supposed to eat that?
That's my lunch for today. Good.
Gosh, in the wall. You hit your lunch on the wall,
Mr. Curtis. I gotta kite it from, from, from
Annette. She's fierce.
She comes. She comes after my.
Lunch. I do know that she does well the
submarine sandwich. Yeah, it doesn't even matter if
you like, put your name on it. Annette's gonna get it out of
the fridge if it's in the fridge, and that's like fair
game and eats it. Yeah, she's a dastardly devil.
If you put it in the work fridge, she will go after it.
We've had so many, we've had so many faculty meetings about this
and it never hasn't stopped her. And we can't fire her.
She's. Right.
She's secretary. Yeah, like he's.
Gonna make the copies. She's the administrative
assistant. Corbin, please.
I'm sorry. I hate to do it.
Minister rule, I'm sorry. And we both have tenure.
So I just, you know, you can't fire.
Us, you have 10, you have 10 years doing what I mean.
But The thing is, like, we would love to fire you, Curtis.
We like it would be so detrimental to us if we were to
fire on that. She is the linchpin of the
GCLCBOTSCLC. When I get to become true class
president again, you will be fired, Mr. Curtis, surely.
Oh yeah? Is that what you're act of the
being the president it's going to be?
Yeah, I'm going to sign an executive order and I'm going to
fire you from being the the assistant to the professor.
Surely let me I'm going to check the rule book here.
You can't just do whatever you want.
It's an executive order, OK. I can do whatever I want I'm.
Going to check the rule book here and see it like, yeah, OK,
yeah, no, it definitely says here that the president, sorry,
the class president cannot fire anybody that they want.
I'm just going to ignore that rule though and let them do
whatever because who cares? I love that.
Yes, surround myself with loyal Willis who let me do what I want
as class president. How about that?
How? About that, how about that,
Mister? Carl, I don't know.
Stop. We're wandering into territory
that doesn't involve Pokedex entries, so I'm gonna meander us
back to that territory like you're.
Sorry, looking for food, will meander to a new territory.
Yes, I'm going to read the Paldea Pokedex entries now.
Okay, it says, it usually wears a hardened expression, but when
it's licking up honey, which it loves, the joy it feels will
cause it to break into a wide grin.
So it tries to be hard, it tries to be intimidating, but the
second it looks honey, it's like, this is fun, yay.
Yay. I am in Ursa ring honey.
That, that, that has meme potential, that has meme
potential. We can work on that.
So I'll I'll get my best guys working on that meme.
Your meme team. All right, Meme team, Assemble.
We got to get a we got to get some good artwork of that.
Somebody, please. Thank you.
Somebody. Anybody.
All right. The next entry here from the
Paldea region says it's quite skilled at climbing trees.
If it comes across a prime ape while searching for berries in
the treetops, trouble will surely and sue.
They don't like each other. Now who do you?
Think's going to win that fight? Probably a prime ape would be my
guess. Think so.
Really. You think that Prime Ape would
take down Keith here? I don't know, Ursa Ring's a
pretty big Pokémon. You think it's gonna fall to a
primate? It is, but so is primate.
Primate's also pretty big and primate is kind of like it's
whole thing is fighting where Ursa Ring's whole thing is
eating food. So I mean, I'm not sure.
I'm not, I think a primate, listen, I'm, I'm sure Keith
could get some good, some good hits in.
I'm not not trying to disparage Keith here in any way.
I just, I just think that the primate has the advantage, you
know, of a type of a type, a type advantage, you could say a
type of advantage really to dealing with an earth, right?
Typing. That's your favorite part about
Pokémon. Keith, listen.
Keith. Keith.
I despise you. Whoa, Hey, lobe of my being.
Lobe, are you bread? Every lobe, every lobe, and you
know so of. My being every cell, every
aspect. Every lobe and node of his.
Beating no, he said. He said every lobe to start
with. I said every.
Just stick with that. Right, every lobe and socket of
my being. He's a robot for what you have
done eating my. That's amazing as he's as he's
saying that earth throwing is pulling out pieces of pepperoni
that just the Curtis has behind his ear and he does not know.
Why'd you put? A bunch of a pepperoni behind
your ear. Again, Yeah.
How'd you put much? Pepperoni behind your ear.
You can't. You can't, No.
I bet that tickles, though, doesn't it?
Hey, tickle. Hey, Keith.
I have pepperoni behind my ear, too.
Come on, come on. Claws are very sharp.
Little surgeries in my ear. I want to be licked behind my
ear. Come on.
But I think I think you could take.
Primate is what I was trying to say.
All right. But you know, I just, I still
despise you. Take Primate to the hospital
where he's going to get urgent care because Primate beat him
up. No, got him no.
My ear is still unlicked and I'm not laughing.
No, you don't want it. His claws are sharp.
They dig. They dig.
It hurts. Oh, see, he's looking.
He doesn't see any pepperonis. And now he's mad Corbin.
Now he's mad. He's oh wow, he's shoving.
You. Sorry, I'll find some.
Do you have any extra pepperonis I can give to him?
No, no, I don't. I mean, he ate.
All right. Fine.
Here. You know what?
You can have my pocket pepperonis.
OK here. Thank you so much.
Smells terrible. Put this behind my ear.
Thank you. This is so it tickles.
Wow, what a fun. What a fun tangent that we went
on there. I wish you guys could have seen
that. I wish you guys saw.
I wish you virtual students. I wish you guys could have seen
this giant, this giant behemoth of a Pokémon eating a pepperoni
from behind my ear. I wish you guys could have seen
it. It was something all right.
I have. One last regional Pokedex entry
here that I'm going to read. Yeah, we should comes to us from
the Lentil region. It says if you see a tree with
huge claw marks carved into it, that means you've stumbled into
an Ursaring territory. That's how it marks its favorite
spots, so other Pokémon won't take them.
Wow. So not only is it like, for, you
know, reminding the Earth rang where the good spots are, it's
also for, you know, warding off potential food thieves.
Right, like a sneezel or something is going to go over
there and say, oh, this is a this is an Earth Rings
territory. I better not try it.
Well. I think wait.
OK, yeah, Keith. Keith is going up to miss Curtis
desk he's scratching claw marks into.
It no, that's his spot. Now you can never eat at that
desk again, Mr. Curtis. Sorry.
Yeah, that's he's like, he's like, I find good food here.
Yeah, that's how he sounds. Keith, you're a menace.
You're a menace in the classroom today.
I love it. I love the energy.
I love it. I love what you're bringing to
the table and scratch marks. That's what you're bringing to
it. All right, that does it for the
original Pokedex entries. I do have a couple of unique
Pokedex entries here. The first one comes to us from
Ashes Pokedex. It says Urserang, the Hibernate
Pokémon. Ursurang has such a keen sense
of smell that it can even find food that has been buried.
Has a Keith sense of smell, am I right fellas?
Keith. Sense of Keith.
Oh, he's laughing. So I don't think, and maybe
maybe I just blacked it out or something, but I don't think
that so. OK, Keith is the hibernate
Pokémon. Yes, correct.
I don't think any Pokedex entries mentioned this
hibernating thing that did. Keith, do you like sleep for or
use very little energy for months at a time like during
specifically the cold months? Now he's shrugging.
He's like, he's like. Oh, now he is curling up next to
the window there. So I guess this is this is the
oh, now he's falling asleep. OK, so I guess this is the
hibernating that. OK, we're we're seeing the
hibernate that he is named for right now.
Now, is he sleeping or hibernating?
How long is he going to be there for?
I don't know, maybe he'll be there in next class too.
We'll have to find out. I don't know.
OK, the next entry comes to us from Don's Pokedex.
OK guys, don't have a Patriot so I can get into the phone so I
can call her. Please stop, Stop asking people
to donate on Patreon, Corbin tell.
Tell her how good do you think her her her pokedex entries are?
Oh, I can't wait. I already know.
It's gonna be great. Let's see her on Corbin.
There she is. Here we go.
Ursa rang the hibernator Pokémon.
Oh that's interesting. So Ash has said the hibernate
Pokémon but Don says the hibernator Pokémon.
That sounds more intimidating. Yeah, it's like the name of a
wrestler. Yeah, exactly.
And stepping into the ring is the hibernator.
Yeah, sorry. Anyways, Earth Ring, The
hibernator Pokémon, It's an excellent tree climber.
It snaps trees with its front legs and eats the fallen fruit.
Sure does. I love that.
And then the last unique entry again comes to us from Ash's
Pokedex. It says Ursa ring the hibernator
Pokémon. All right, so he saw, he saw
Don's Pokedex entry and was like, yeah, I know that sounds.
Bad and he said somebody that pretty knows what they're
talking about. I'm going to call it Hibernator
now. Pretty smart, that's for sure.
Pretty smart. That's right.
Ursa Ring searches for honey in the forest daily to reach its
food. It often snaps trees with its
four legs rather than climbing. Yeah, hungry and lazy.
Hungry and lazy. Put that on T-shirt too.
OK, we're having too many T-shirt ideas.
All right, that does it for the Pokedex entries for Ursa rang.
I think it's time. I think we've we've dilly
dallied enough. It's time to move on to the
testing portion, no? No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, stop yelling. Stop yelling.
You're waking up, Keith. Sorry.
Sorry, Keith, Sorry. He's so, he's so sleepy.
Let him sleep. Sorry.
Sorry, sorry. No, no, no, no, no.
I. Don't like turning?
Device Can't hear you? No.
Sleepy and EP. Yes, he's EP and sleepy.
Alright, today we're doing a pop quiz.
God. OK, well now.
Now Keith, awake and angry. I'm sorry, Keith.
Alright, alright, alright, sorry.
I'll whisper from now on ASMR for the rest of that lesson.
I'm so sorry. OK, he's puppet to, puppet to
pop pop pop pop to. Sleep here quiz.
OK, yes, everybody, everybody put away their pokedexes, bring
out their Rotom laptops, bring a pencil, a ruler, all the fun
stuff because this is we got a pop quiz today.
Are we all ready? Yes.
I'm ready. I'm ready.
OK, question number one, what is Ursa Rang's main method of
retrieving berries from trees? All right, both answers are in
for the question. Let's see, let's we'll start
with Corbin. This time.
Corbin says that the main method of Earth's main method of
retrieving berries from trees is pushing its four legs on the
tree to make them easier to reach.
Feeling good about that answer, Corbin?
I don't know. All right.
Well, let me read Mr. Curtis's answer now.
It is entirely caps. Caps locked all capital.
Letters here, you gotta yell it. I don't wanna yell it they're
being because keep sleeping. So yeah, don't do that.
Yeah, yeah. So I'm not gonna yell it.
I'm sorry. I'm gonna change the tone of
your answer here a little bit, Mr. Curtis.
OK, fine, fine, fine. OK.
He says now somebody might. Some say they climb and they do,
but they actually prefer to snap trees and eat the berries that
fall. Yes, yes, Mr. Curtis, that is
correct. They like to snap the trees.
I'm sorry Corbin, you are not correct.
Does not pushing its forelegs on the trees to make them easier to
reach? Is not the.
Correct. Well, pushes it down so it snaps
in the process. I thought that was implied.
Yeah, I'm, I'm looking, I'm looking for snaps, the trees.
OK. Snap the tree, eat the bird that
fall on the ground. Cuz I mean.
Fine, half points. I'm tempted to give half points
because you knew it wasn't climbing the tree.
No, I know it's not. It's not climbing.
It's pushing its four legs and it bends the tree and then
breaks it and gets the berries a new.
Key, but you missed that point of saying break.
Said though, is that what? He said, though he said pushing
the four legs on the tree to make them easier to reach,
That's not I will. Adhere to your discretion.
It's not climbing it, but. So you're saying, you're saying
that half points is not fair and equitable, Mr. Curtis?
No, I'm saying whatever you decide to do is fair and
equitable. I agree.
You don't get points, you don't get points.
I'm sad it doesn't get. Pretty sounds pretty effany to
me. How?
Are you? That was a stupid decision.
Stop waking up. Stop it.
Oh my God, Keith is waking. Up.
I'm sorry. Keith, I'm sorry.
Whisper, whisper continue. I'm so sad.
Question. #2 what 2 locations
will An Ursarang find food in its forest home?
All right, both of the answers are in.
Let's check over here in Corbin's Corner, Corbin.
Corbin's corner, Corbin says. Trees and rivers.
I do. All right, do you feel good
about that answer? Not anymore.
Do you feel good about yourself? Today, do you really feel good
about that answer? Do you think that's a good?
I felt OK when I walked in the classroom, but now I don't know.
That happens a lot. OK, Curtis?
Mr. Curtis says they always be. Again, this is all in caps.
All of this is all in caps. I'm guessing his caps lock key
is broken or something. Yeah, they always be finding
those foods in the Babel and Brooks and the big woody trees.
So yes, the answer, the answer is streams and trees.
So yeah, you both got it. They're excellent work.
All right, question #3 this one's a little bit of a journey.
So we're going to have to go on this journey together.
Take me on this. Take me away, professor.
Take me on a journey. You're wicked Sorry.
All right. You are Walking in a forest that
is known to be home to a nurse ring.
You start to see trees with scratch marks on them.
What does this indicate to you about those trees?
All right, I think I think I have both of these answers here.
Checking, double checking. Looking.
Yes. OK.
God, Mr. Curtis, you woke him up again.
I'm so sorry I had to sneeze. I'm so.
Sorry buddy. Oh.
God, now he's now OK Keith is walking around now and it looks
like he is. Yep.
OK, I pulled a burrito. Mr. Curtis's hair.
What the heck? Why?
Would you keep that in there? Oh no, that was my backup lunch
burrito. That's.
What you get for this is what you get for sneezing.
All right, the answers are in, Corbin says.
Sorry, I'm going to repeat the question.
It's a long question. You are walking in a forest that
is known to be the home of an earth ring.
You start to see trees with scratch marks on them.
What does this indicate to you about those trees?
Corbin says. Those scratched trees.
Those scratched trees, Ursarang, I think he's meant to say those
are scratched trees Ursarang has marked as its territory and to
remember where food is. And then Mr. Curtis says that's
the good trees, real productor of the tastiest good berries.
OK, All right. Now I feel like each of you kind
of have half of this. Really.
Yeah, Corbin didn't mention.
Corbin didn't mention that it was the good food, he said.
That's where food is the good food, which is I feel like
leaving something out. Well, it's good.
Yeah, it's applied. But Mr. Curtis didn't mention
the fact that it's being marked as territory.
Oh, but you said that in the question though.
Got him. No, I said.
You're walking in a forest that is known to be the home of an
Ursaring you. I didn't say that the trees are
its territory, it just lives in the forest.
It doesn't own a whole forest. A forest that is known to be
home to an Ursarang that I would say that's the Ursarang's
territory. He.
Always knows this, he always gives me sack that was.
Applied through the. I thought that was applied
through the question, Professor. I mean, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong,
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, Professor I.
Split it down the middle. Give us both full points.
Thank you. I'll give you both 3/4 of a
point. That works.
Oh, wow. OK.
All right, Sir. Hey, that's more than I was
gonna give you, Kurt. I was gonna give you half
points. Mr. Curtis, you can't question
his authority, remember? I can't.
That's right.
I guess it's pretty fair and equitable.
Play the music. Play.
It never gets old. All right, now that that's done
with question at #4. Now all the students make sure
that you send Gengar mails in and tell tell the professor how
wrong he was about that decision.
Oh, assistant. Oh.
Wow, that's that's right. Amazing.
Anyways, Mr. Kurz got half points on that actually.
I got, I got, I got full though. I got his points that he missed.
No, you got 3/4. I'm so oh, professor.
Oh, I'm so sorry. Do you want to?
Oh yeah, you sorry. I'm so sorry.
Oh. Yeah, Yeah, you are sorry
you're. Planning to get a quarter of a
point. All right, question #4 what
allows Ursa Ring to find food buried deep underground?
OK, let's take a look here. Yes, all right, now, God, God,
that that took you guys so long. I feel like we've been here for.
Sorry. Wait a minute.
That's a thing because. I think it's that's fair, that's
fair. It takes a little while to get
that thing cooked. I can't think without my My
brain burrito and my pepperoni ears T-shirt.
Brain burrito and pepperoni ears.
Some students have been saying recently, I don't know if you
guys have noticed this seems to have been saying recently that
listening to these lessons is a little bit like a fever dream.
A fever dream, somebody. I don't get it recently.
Somebody said that recently. I I don't get it.
I I don't agree. There was a comment.
I'm sorry about your brain burrito and pepperoni ears, Mr.
Curtis. Yeah.
All right. So the question was what allows
earth ring to find food buried deep underground?
Corbin said, smelling. I think now you can't be putting
I think at the end of your answers, Corbin, That's not
that's so non committal. Well, the first part, well, it's
still, I still put it there. Even if I say I think I still
put the smelling part. So if that part's right, then I
get the whole thing right still. But.
But if you get it wrong, I can give you a little bit of extra
points cuz you're like, OK, well, he knew that that one
might not have been the right answer.
What's Mr. Curtis you said? I think at the end what's?
Mr. Curtis's answer? OK, Mr. Curtis says again.
All caps that snaziest snog the nose nose.
It's sense of smell will tell Ursa rang were to find the good
stuff fell underground where the good where the good stuff fell
underground. That was that was a roller
coaster yes, the answer is it's ability to distinguish any
aroma. It's got a very good news.
So yes, full marks for the both of you not hey, listen, not the
best test all around. Unfortunately, Mr. Curious with
the with the half a point on question 3 and then Corbin
missing question 1 entirely. It happens, happens to the best
of us. This snoziest snoz.
Yeah, man, Yeah, that's so true. Anyways, that's going to do it
for today's lesson on Ursa Rang. Thank you so much, Keith, for
being such a willing participant.
He's sleep. He's still sleeping.
He's sleeping. He's asleep, He's asleep.
Alright, does anybody know what Pokémon we're going to be
learning about next week? It's the one that evolves from
Ursa Ring. It's like Ursa Luna or
something, right? So we're not going to be
learning about Ursa Luna, OK? No.
Why not Professor?
Well, because of the weirdness that goes along with the
National Pokedex, the Ursa Luna evolution of Ursa Ring wasn't
discovered until we found these ancient texts from Hisui.
So it's number in the National Pokedex is far later than than
it's the rest of its evolutionary line.
Because today, these days, Ursa Ring can't evolve into an Ursa
Luna naturally. Gotcha, Gotcha.
OK. So that's why does that.
Any more questions? Any more questions?
How about an answer? How about I'll take an answer.
No, no, you give me an answer. I have.
No more questions for you, Professor.
Is it a fire type? Yes, it is a fire type.
Is it fue Coco? It's not fue Coco.
I wish it was fue Coco. He got so excited.
No, it's not Wish. All right, I'm gonna tell you we
are learning about Slugma next week.
So I forgot about Slugma. How could you forget about?
Slugma. I don't know.
Wow, do you not even care how they keep the GCLCBOTSCLC warm
during the winter? Corbin.
I mean, I do care because it keeps me warm.
Yeah, clearly not enough and I'll explain that in the next
lesson. A tease, yes.
A tease? Yeah.
You'll have to figure out why I said you're gonna meet.
You're gonna meet our arguably, besides the net, of course, our
second most MVP employee here of the.
Now you're really giving it. GCL, BCL, GCC, GCC, another
faculty. Member, I'm excited.
Yes, but that's next week and today's lesson is completed
before we leave. Hey, we got a lot of we got we
got a lot of stuff going on. Some say too much stuff and
that's some person's Corbin. Don't tell him I said that,
though. I.
Wouldn't say that I'm just a kid, I do the least amount of
work. That is true.
He just shows up for class and fails tests.
That's right, I don't do anything else.
But you know, we have a bunch of links in our description, but we
have one link that leads to a bunch of links where you can
find, you can connect to us.viagangarmail.wwopokemon@gmail.com.
We have socials on there as well.
Plus you can find our Patreon. What Patreon has a bunch of
extra content? Corbin, what's some extra
content they could find on Patreon?
There's a lot of good stuff on Patreon, guys, as I'm sure most
of you, you know already, the Nuzlok episodes, our Emerald
Nuzlok playthrough that we're doing on YouTube is available
there. However, if you want to see the
episodes two weeks early, you get to see them on Patreon for
even as little as a dollar. Every single tier, every paid
tier gets gets to see those and some of the other rewards you
can get depending on your tier, you can, you know, look at Mr.
Curtis's doodles. Yeah, full just.
Look at Mr. Curtis, you can always look at Mr. Curtis's
doodles. There is not the Curtis's
doodles will always be there, no matter what they're.
Always there no matter what tier.

the channels in our Discord, not just view the announcements and
rules channel. You can actually engage with
other students as well. Like I said, watch our Emerald
Nuzlak playthrough. You also get your name enter to
a raffle so you can have a Pokémon's name potentially named
after you. Today it happened to be Keith.
That was one of our wonderful patrons.
Listen to the monthly. Thanks, Keith.
Listen to the monthly Q&A. You get to send questions via
Discord in the Office Hours channel for our monthly Q&A if
you're a professor's assistant. And then also you get to listen
to monthly outtakes and deleted scenes Supercut, which is
essentially a podcast in and of itself, because it's all the
stuff that didn't make it to the regular lessons like this one.
And it's just a bunch of extra stuff that we talk about
whatever we talked. About sometimes or we mess.
Up or we mess up. It's hilarious, it's funny, it's
informative. It's We talk about the latest
news, you know, talking trending topics.
Ago. From from months ago.
It is great. It's a good time.
There's a ton of stuff on our discord and honestly, I've been
thinking more we should probably add another tier and add some
more stuff. But you know, like I said,
that's just that's. Just talk about that later.
That's just, that's just me. I don't do any work.
You guys do it? All so let's add more work.
That's on you guys. OK, quickly, quickly, quickly.
Mr. Curious, what's something that they can find on our
YouTube? What, what, what?
What's going to bring people over to our?
Music well, well, of course there's always good content for
you always to see on Sundays. That's right, because we always
do a Sunday, a Sunday live stream Sunday, Sunday with, with
the, with the team here in class, the boys, we all get
together and we we play right now we're playing Pokémon
Stadium, which is great. So you should all come out and
and watch us play that and we beat.
Maybe we at least were playing Pokémon Stadium.
We. Were at the time, yeah, at the
time of recording. Whoa, hey, I mean, but what are
you talking about? It's Wednesday, Curtis.
Come on. Yeah, yeah, Curtis, the time of
this class lesson, we were still all getting together on the
weekends and playing Pokémon Stadium.
That's right. It's great.
I can't get enough Mr. Curtis, that's you know what?
Probably true. OK.
Well, excellent. Excellent work, Mr. Curtis.
If you you know what, I don't think there's anything else to
say. There's not.
If you like this lesson, listen to the next one because today
class is dismissed.
