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.
Mr. Curtis, if you could please introduce yourself.
Thank. Thank you.
Professor.
I just have to say clap. Clap on that one good word.
You have to say clap. You just got to say clap.
Clap. And you got to say clap
sometimes. That's.
Right. Sometimes you got to say clap.
That's right. 10 out of 10 definitely in your top five.
Best openings. Professor right there.
I could just I could feel it in your It's really starting to
feel repetitive. I might.
Maybe next time we'll have to. Mix it.
No, no, professor. You've got such a the perfect
combo there. What's the combo?
What's? What's the combo?
Hello there and welcome to class.
It's just. It just hits perfectly.
I mean, that's not what I say, but whatever.
That's right. Well, that's, that's what I
famously not what I say. Also joining us here in the
classroom today is of course our young trainer and training,
Corbin. If you could please say hello.
Hey, kids, what's going on? It's me.
Most of them are older than you, Corbin.
Well, I don't know about that. You know, 10 years old is, you
know, not a it's not exactly that young.
I'm not like 6 or some baby. Yeah, that's like halfway
through life. Is it really?
Wow. Your your life.
What? What?
What do you mean? Am I going to die at 20?
Anyways, who's ready to learn about Pokémon here?
I'm ready. I'm ready.
I think I am. Yeah.
I'm ready. I'm ready.
OK, excellent, Excellent. So before we get started, I do
have some Gengar males here to read.
I'm down. I'm into it.
These are these are some some real doozies.
So so so strap in. First one comes to us from
Alexander. Hi, Alexander.
Thanks, Alexander. Hi, Alexander.
In fact, Alexander says hello Professor Jacob.
Not to, not to you guys. Oh.
OK, OK, gotcha. I'm Alex, one of your alumni.
And you know what? I I think I do recognize that
now I've had a few Alex's, but I think you you do stand out, he
says. I am one of your alumni and
definitely not that Team Rocket grunt that took all of your
Pokémon in a previous semester. Well now hold on, Alex.
Right. Hold on, seems seems you seem to
be overcorrecting. It almost seems like you.
Maybe you are that Team Rocket Grunt that took all of my free
Pokémon in the previous semester.
How can you take all of my poke? I have a massive storeroom.
There's no way you'd be able to get away with.
It the only people that can get in there is me and the
professor, OK, unless you put all of the pokey balls into one
pokey ball. If you pokey ball, pokey ball.
Is that possible? Can you do that?
I don't know. I don't know one.
Only one way to find out. That's true.
So the Alex goes on to say I have been retaking this class so
I can get more info than I did back when they were only the,
you know, the entries well. I mean, you know what doesn't
generally add any entries, so. Yeah they suck.
They do suck a little bit. I have already caught up to the
current lesson and I have noticed some very interesting
things. I'm starting from the beginning
and re listening to the lessons so that I can create several
different lists of things that the authorities might need to
know or things that are just interesting.
I'm at the Right You lesson, and I want to report my findings on
the amount of times the students or Pokémon have been injured
throughout lessons one through 20.
Hey Okay, this is so that the police won't have to come
through the lessons themselves, and they will know exactly what
the charges will be. Strangely enough, Professor
Jacob has never been injured throughout the entire course.
Something to think about. I don't.
Think I I It's a lot. Listen, it's a.
Lot of hard work, but you're not there.
Yet. And I'm glad.
I'm glad that I've been able to keep the pressure safe all that
time. Thank you.
I appreciate. That well, you've almost killed
all of us on multiple occasions, so, OK, so I'm not going to read
all of the injuries because there's there's a decent amount,
but let's see here some of my favorite ones.
Mr. Curtis was blasted by a hydro cannon from Blastoise.
That's right, he was. Mr. Curtis was hit in the head
by a metapod that was flung like a boomerang.
And then Alex says and Metapod probably got hurt also.
I don't think so, Alex. Metapods are very hard.
I don't think that he really would have felt it.
That's right. Right.
Corbin killed AB Drill with a Super Repel and I.
Didn't. And then he sprayed himself.
All right. It.
I don't think it died.
Everyone settled down.
Corbin punched himself in the crotch because he thought it
would make Professor Jacob give him an A on every quiz.
Did it work? Nope, it did not work.
Mr. Curtis was stabbed in the foot by a pencil that was thrown
in a whirlwind made by Mr. Pecks.
Yeah, that one was pretty gruesome.
I think you were stuck to the floor for a while.
Oh, that. Yeah, that was gross.
Alex finishes their Gmail by saying.
In total, there have been 17 notable injuries that have been
recorded during lessons. One through 25 in in.
A total of eight confirmed injuries were sustained by
Corbin, seven were sustained by Mr. Curtis, one was sustained by
Ryan, the Team Rocket Grunt that tried to steal our Pikachu, and
two were sustained by Pokémon. Thanks for taking the time to
read this. And just so I get the Gold Star,
I should mention that B Drill is my fifth favorite Pokémon.
Have a great lesson. What a great e-mail.
What props to you for the research.
You definitely get a Gold Star, Alex.
Well, you don't get to say whether or not it has a Gold
Star, but Mr. I'm tempted to say no, because Corbin said you got
one, but I I have to give credit where credit is due.
B Drill is pretty cool bug type, so Gold Star for you, good star
for you. Glad I could make the decision
today. Thank you so much, but yeah,
Alex, great work. Thank you so much for this.
If any of the virtual students are really interested in this
kind of information, Alex has also sent more emails for
lessons. Was at 25 through. 26 through
50, yeah, 26 through 50 now. So if you guys, if virtual
students want to hear more about these, we can let us know and
then we can try to figure out a way to but.
We can post more of them online on social media stuff too.
Yeah, yeah. If, if, if the interest is
there. But thank you so much, Alex.
I know it's it's hard work listening to some of these
lessons. Oh yeah.
So. So thank you for that or
something else. I listen to them on repeat all
the time. Well, yeah, but you're you're a
different kind of being than the regular human, I think.
We I have. The human.
That's a good T-shirt. Different kind of being.
Different kind of being what? A different kind of being would
be a good T-shirt. A different kind of being.
Mr. Curtis is a different kind of being.
All right, so we have another Gengar male here from one
Dorian, they say. Dear Mr. Curtis, if you're still
alive. Sad face.
Don't worry, I'm here. Mr. Curtis is still alive.
I've. Never.
I've never left. Yeah, you did.
Objectively, yeah. And sometimes I'm not quite
convinced that this is the real Mr. Curtis.
No, professor. Please.
I've given everything to you. I don't know.
It's it's the way he writes his eyes.
Normally Mr. Curtis puts the little hearts in them, but he
hasn't been doing that as. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Professor. I'll go back to putting the
hearts in there. No, I'm just something that
Mister Curtis would do. You've grown lazy.
Not lazy. Or maybe he is a completely
different person. Do do do, do, do do Do Do Do do
do. Love it.
Thank you. That's.
Good music. Thank you.
Thank you, Professor Portia. Put in some actual music there.
Thank you Portia. Anyways, So Dorian says, what is
your least favorite bug type? Pokémon Mr. Curtis?
My least favorite I know. I know Corbin's answer, and it's
all of them. That's a good question.
I'm not. Is there at least a less good?
I mean, there would have to be No, there would have to be a
least favorite. Let me continue reading their
Gengar mail so you can have some time to think.
So they say. I have some small advice for
your spinner rat colony. Most spinner racks are limited
to land as normal spinner rack are unable to exist in water in
a water type Biome. However, I'm guessing you have
some genetically modified ones that do.
Oh yes, yes, of course child's play, but I have an an idea to
advance the spinner rack colony and make it thrive more than
before. What if And hear me out.
Dupiter. Dupiter.
Really. Dupiter.
Yes, just think of it as I think, sorry, just think of it.
Oh OK I see. Just think of it.
They're able to traverse land and water is the perfect spider
like specimen. Although I do prefer Nin Kaida.
Best of wishes a fellow bug enthusiast.
So I it sounds like they're trying to get you to stop
breeding, spinner act and start. Breeding DEW fighters, of
course. Of course.
Never. I would never do that, but that
that would be crazy. I I could certainly look into
that. You know, I I do have, I have
been breeding in some water, you know accommodating traits into
the spinner rack line. I was, I was following a Serskit
a little bit, you know, trying to get some of the oil that
Serskit uses until it filed that restraining.
Order to to you know to repel water and and to allow it to
like allow them to walk on water cause.
Just a picture of you know my army of spinner axe running
across the surface of water. You know to to swarm an enemy
encampment. Just encampment.
Just just just Fort. And Mr. Curtis Is this the
medieval ages where we're storming castles?
Yes, scale the walls of the castles across to cross the
moats. Right with your spinner racks,
of course. They would have to get off of
their shinx mounts though. Yes, of course, of course.
Well, when does she want to make the shinxes block across?
Blocks No no, no. The Shinx.
The the the ones that ride the shinx mounts, they run around
the outside of the lake and they flank from the side, but the the
bulk of the army runs across the water like like like the supreme
beings they are. Anyway, Yeah, no, it's it's kind
of hard to say. I think maybe was for your least
favorite bug type. Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I don't get me wrong. I like all bug types.
I think Formosa is probably my least favorite because she just
asked acts so like superior to everybody else.
OK. The the ultra beast.
The bug fighting ultra beast. Yeah, you know, and and listen,
she's got good kicks. OK, all right.
But you know. I have my least.
Favorite day and everything. That's all I'm saying.
All right, she thinks, All right, let's let's hear.
Oh, I'm sorry. Keep, keep.
Going No, I was just saying she. Listen, she she she's great.
She's got good kicks. She's really great at what she
does. But but you know, it doesn't
mean doesn't mean she's all that OK.
I can think of a So in summary, good kicks.
Good kicks, good kicks. Good kicks?
Not all that. All right, let's hear, let's
hear. Corbin's least favorite bug
type. Easily.
It's relor. Any bug Pokémon that plays with
its own poop? Not for me.
Is it necessarily its own poop or is it just anything?
I don't know if it's. I think it's probably weirder if
you play with other people. 'S what?
I don't know where you got the idea that it's bug poop.
It really plays with mud is what it is.
Well, I mean mud in quotes. I don't know.
I I listen. I've seen a few in my day.
Dirt. Mud.
You know, No poop. No poop, you know.
You know, it rolls up a little bit of poop in there.
It's got to get some poop. Some of it's pooping on that
ground and it's catching it and it's it's playing with.
With it and it doesn't care at all.
Energy and the poop. They're bottom feeders.
They're bottom feeding bugs. Oh wait, that's OK.
OK, they're poop feeding bottom feeding bugs.
OK, all right, all right, all right.
Calm down. Calm down, all right, Well,
fight's about to break out here, and I'm.
All you've got. No, you've got no proof that
they're but but poop lovers, OK, they're dirt and sand.
They make mud. That's a mud ball.
Thank you. It's a poop ball.
Nope. Lot lot of people enjoyed mud
baths. Ray Lore is really just playing
into the into the the common fad right now.
OK, it's got to enjoy. I don't think mud baths are
common fad. All right, come on, let's focus
up, everybody. We'll we'll get more into that
when we talk about Ray lore. We'll talk about poop balls
later. Corbin, please stop antagonizing
my teaching assistant. Sorry, sorry.
OK, so you're fine, Mr. Curtis. Gold Star for Dora?
Yeah, I give it to that was great.
He's worth it. Yeah, yeah, you get a Gold Star.
Good discussion of the superiority of bug types there.
Good. Good idea to incorporate more
water type integration, maybe making some bubbles so that they
can also some you know, some can crawl on water.
Some of them can make bubbles around their head and go
underwater, attack from underneath.
That's a good idea. Yep.
Have you thought about gills?
I don't know, but possibly. We'll see.
Have you thought about very, very long lips that extend up to
above the surface of the? Water.
No, no, absolutely not. Too.
Too much risk there, I thought. I listen.
I thought that was a. Great idea.
Well, I mean if what do I know if the?
Professor says that maybe I can put like a like a beauty fly's.
Oh I'm blinking what do what do you call that thing?
The like the little straw that the beauty fly has to for
sucking up nectar. But like you could you could put
it like. Pointed upward so that it goes
up the nectar sucker. Yeah, the nectar sucker.
But you could it could be a an air sucker.
The the The Slurpinator, 5000. Slurpinator 5000 Yes, Professor
Perfect. That's exactly what I exactly
what it's called. OK, well, I'm so glad that we're
that we're talking about attributes of water type Pokémon
and the ability to breathe underwater, because we're
learning about a water type Pokémon today.
Does anybody know what that Pokémon is?
Oh, I said it last week. It's.
Oh, by the way, if I didn't, if I didn't already say it.
Thank you Dorian for your wonderful.
Yes, Thank you, Dorian. Thank you.
Thank you for the extra work that you've been putting in.
All right, Corbin, go on. Oh, this is Crocalore.
Crocalore. I mean, yeah, no, but that's an
awesome name for Pokémon. It's.
It is, yeah. It's who.
It's who, what's who Fuycoco evolves into?
What about low tank? Oh, is it?
Are we talking about low tan? Oh, I see.
I haven't memorized the middle evolutions of the pelte and
Pokémon yet. You should learn Crocalore as a
as a self-proclaimed professor, you should learn.
Oh please, I'm only self-proclaimed, So what do I
know? Is it Wait, is it crocal?
Nah, yes, we are learning about Crocalana Crocalore.
Really. Oh, we're learning about
crocolore then. No, no, no.
I just. I just you.
Said Crocodile Crocolore. Really, I'm like, I'm getting
whiplash here. Are we learning about crocodile
crocolore? Which one?
I'm just surprised that crocolore is its name.
It doesn't. Yeah, yeah, it's a that's a real
name. And that's what we're learning
about today, right? No, we're learning about
crocodile. Kind of think, think shock and
awe, but crocodile. OK, I could just think of
Crocodile, though that works well.
But if you ever need like a little reminder, 'cause I you
guys tend to have issues remembering what the Pokémon is,
Mr. Chris, we already know that we're learning about Croc now,
but did you always want to throw a guess out there?
Don't say it. Why?
Don't say it. We already know what.
It is. I did.
I did say low tad, but you were too busy talking about
Crocalore, so I mean, you know, oh, wow, OK.
Wow, who are you? Wow, sound a little feisty
there, buddy. That's right.
I mean, I already said decidui earlier, but you you ignored
that one as well. So then I tried low TAD.
Did you? You get a lot of sass from Mr.
Curtson. I'm a little.
Disappointed. That's all.
I did not hear you say decision. Everyone talk about crocolore,
not about decision. Well, I'm just, listen, you're
being drowned out. You're being drowned out because
you saying the Sichuan has gotten too repetitive and
everyone's tired of it. No, no.
You know what? The joke.
The joke has kind of run its course.
It's breaks. And that's who we're that's
that's who we're talking about today.
No, we already know it's crocodile.
We're wasting time. We're learning about Crocana
today. Has anybody seen a Crocana
before? No, you haven't.
Here is a Crocana now. Whoa, you're a fierce little
thing. Is this?
This isn't? Did you evolve gunk?
Well, goodness no. I I I don't own gunk.
I wouldn't, you know, dream of evolving it that that school
property. Whoa, hold on.
She's she's more than school. She's not just school property,
thank you very much. She's an important employee of
this school. Not according to the paper she
signed. You know what?
I. Like about her, Her her build,
her body. Is that like, OK, it this is a
male crocodile, by the way? Oh, this is a male.
I'm so sorry, gunk. Yeah, I love what?
What I love about his body is that it has like that cream
belly part that was the V on on that we saw on gunk.
It's like covering a lot of its lower body and it almost looks
like a cookie a little bit. So I think I'm going to call
this guy Cook. Is that a torchic outside look
at the window. Did you see that?
Is that a torch that was that was absolutely not a torchic.
No, no, no. That guy's walking his torchic
outside. No, there's no torchic.
That's. Definitely a torchic.
That's a Pharaoh. And also a giraffe rig out there
too. I don't know what it is.
A man walking torture. That looked like a torture.
From here. I didn't get my eyes checked.
Anyways, my point is, I think Cookie and I have torture on the
brain. So I'm going to say Cookie
Torture should be this crocodile's name.
Can you shorten it at all? Can we just go with Cookie?
Weirdly enough. Cookie Torchic is the name of a
of a patron of ours too. So.
I'm going to have to agree with the professor on this one.
Would you have to go cookie call this crocodile cookie torchic?
Well, that's its full name if you're if you're nasty, but
you'll call it cookie for short. Just Cookie.
Cookie. Cookie for short.
Cookie. Cookie.
Tea. Yeah, Cookie tea.
Cookie tea. Yo, what's up?
Cookie tea. So, OK, So what else about you
mentioned the pattern on its stomach?
I do like that it kind of looks a little bit like like.
An egg. Or cookie.
I was thinking more like it looks like like an outfit that
like a caveman would wear like the little like cloth.
A little bit, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I could see that. The spikes are much more
prominent now and it has a very, very big underbite.
I like that. I like that for.
Sure. Or Big Jaw, because crocodile is
also known as the Big Jaw Pokémon OH.
Yeah. Very cool.
Wow. Cookie tea cookie.
Torchic cookie. You are a bad little thing,
aren't you? I love it.
Cookie. Would you like a cookie?
Don't. Don't feed it.
Don't. Feed it.
I've got some. I've got some cookies in my bag
here. Those are old cookies from last
week. They're going to suck.
You didn't put them up in the fridge like I asked?
You to now they suck. Cookies in the fridge?
Well, I do, and they're great. I do and they're.
Called these are fresh cookies. Here you go.
Oh wow, my God ate the whole plate.
Oh. Wow.
Oh, that was my plate. Just just like that plate to
you, Wait, that was with the floral arrangement?
On it. Hold on.
Curtis. Professor.
I'll plate. I'll go get.
I'll go get it back. All right.
Come, come over here. Cookie tea.
What are you doing? Open up.
Don't climb into the crocodile's mouth.
Mr. Curtis, can you not open up the crocodile's mouth, please?
That's what Professor won't open up its mouth.
I can't. I can't get it.
Out. Try tickling its armpits.
No, no. Rub the belly, Rub the belly.
Did you go? It worked for toe to dial.
I don't know why it's not working now.
I don't know why. That's good.
Pinch the spikes. Did did anyone teach this, this,
this previously? A toe to dial A safe word?
I don't know. Did it?
Whoever owns this, did you listen to our instructional
video? That's right.
Because we need to know the safe word.
That's right. Yeah, I don't know who owns.
This. I don't know, Professor.
I think it's impossible. I don't.
I don't think we're going to be able to get this plate back
hooked. Right.
You're going to have to buy him another one, the Spurs.
Buy a new plate. I I would love to.
In fact, I'll redecorate your entire house.
I. Didn't have that I'm.
Thinking green and black for everything that's necessary.
Green and black. Green and black.
That, that, that absolutely classic.
That's I can think of no better color combination than green.
Those are the warmest colors. Yeah, and I'm a bright, fiery
wait, now I'm cold. I'm a cold individual, that's
true. You are especially towards me.
Yeah, OK, back to the crocodile, back to cookie tea.
I mean, basically there's not a, there's not too many crazy
differences between crocodile and Toadedile.
I mean, it's just bigger. It's just kind of like a bigger
Toadedile with a stronger mouth, a little bit more angry looking,
a little bit, yeah. It looks a little bit more
fierce than totodile, is a much more friendly looking in the
face, but crocodile is a little bit more fierce and you can tell
that it has more powerful jaws. It's like rounder too, just like
more round or rotund. I love it.
Yeah, more more bean Like oh, we love a bean Pokémon.
OK. I'm going to go ahead and put
Cookie tea back into the Pokeball.
Thank you so much, Cookie, for spending some time with us.
Yes, thank you Cookie Torchic. We loved spending time with you.
Cookie I'm I'm disappointed that you ate that plate, but there's
nothing really I could do about it.
It was your fault. You put it right in front of
them, so. Yeah, you were kind of like
dangling like this plate. I was just no.
I was trying to offer cookie tea.
Some cookies I mean. Come on.
Bye, bye. I'll miss you.
Alright. Fierce, beautiful warrior.
OK, let's read some Pokedex entries.
The first one comes. These first couple always come
from the Jota region. First one says if it loses A
Fang, a new one grows back in its place.
There are always 48 fangs lining its mouth.
Count them. Always a 48 and it uses each one
one's for grinding. Ones for cutting, ones for
sucking ones. One is for licking, one is for
stabbing, one is for serrating, one is for poking, one is for
shanking. Brilliant.
Watch out for that one. Kind of.
All the other teeth are afraid of that one.
A multi tool of of mouth, mouth mouthing proportions.
Uh huh. Nailed it.
Got a new one, Mr. Curtis. That's good.
The next entry says it opens its huge jaws wide when attacking.
If it loses anything as well, biting, they grow back in like
instantly. Not instantly, but they do grow
in very fast. I think we will read later on
how quickly they grow back. Maybe not, maybe not exactly.
How quickly will give us a an idea of the time scale?
A rough estimate. Good question though, Corbin,
very good question. Thank you, Gold Star.
Nope. That's not up to me.
Nope, Nope. Sorry the Baggies closed for
you, Corbin. You already have a deficit from
last week. Yeah, no way.
You gotta repay him your gold stars.
You've got, you've got. I only got 2 gold stars from
last week. Help me out.
Please. Well, but there's also at least
one from what? The Bay Leaf Lesson, I think.
Did I get one in Bay Leaf? You did get a you did get a
deficit of gold stars in the Bay Leaf.
Yeah. You got?
Another You are really in the red.
Come on, help me out. OK, this next entry is very
interesting. It says the tips of its fangs
are slanted backwards. Once those fangs clamp down, the
prey has no hope of escape. It's kind of like you can like
get in, but you just you just can't.
Get out is the thing. You can't.
You can't get out. That's that's that's a really
cool aspect of crocodile. It's, it's it's all designed
around, you know, biting on something and keeping it in its
mouth. And it stays that way until it
just says, hey, you know what? I'm tired of this.
I'll let go. All right, let's move on to the
Hellen region, The first and three says.
Once crocodile has clamped its jaws on its foe, it will
absolutely not let go. You can remember that because it
rhymes, yes. So we'll say it all together.
Once Crocco, No. Clamped.
It's just clamped. It's jaws.
Foes. It will absolutely, absolutely
let go. Never let go, OK?
You said no, Mr. Kerr suddenly said.
Absolutely let go. I mean not.
And then I said not. OK, OK I did.
Not. I'm like, I'm not.
Great. Good work everybody.
I think we could use a little bit of practice, but overall
very good. We're very In Sync here.
Because the tips of its fangs are forked back like barbed fish
hooks, they become impossible to remove when they have sunk in.
Wow, that is devastating. So OK, so not only.
So not only are its fangs slanted backwards, but also they
are like hook They have like little hooks on the end of them,
right? Like you can't get out.
That's awful, that that that like, oh God, imagine that going
into your skin. Sorry, I I I always forget.
Corbin has an extremely active imagination.
Yeah, I just picture it. I just the fact that, like the
only way to get it out is if you're trying to rip your arm
and like the flesh tears away, Oh.
Yeah, you'll have to. You're going to.
You're going to have to amputate that entire oh.
The arm's got to come off. Just goes the there's no
salvaging the arm once it's been Croc and Odd.
Oh, you know what they say. Once it's been Croc and Odd,
it's never going to be. Thawed croc a yours.
Again, something like that. He found it funny.
Croc and odd it will never be croc and safe to use I'm.
Professor, please. God, he's he's so sad.
He's croc. Had enough?
I've had enough. Please.
So good. Okay.
So funny. Okay.
Well, you haven't had enough yet because there's another Pokedex
entry. Oh hey, from the cine region.
It says once it bites down, it won't let go until it loses its
fangs. Ah, so there is a way to get it
to let go. You have to get rid of some.
Fangs and then it says new fangs quickly grow into place so
quickly I don't it could be like weeks maybe.
Or maybe it could be like a day. I don't.
That would be, hey, you know what that would be quicker than.
Me, I mean it's it's it's quicker than you would expect
for teeth to grow. Is is what we have here.
OK, gotcha. And Speaking of what we have
here, that's it. That's all about the regional
Pokedex entries. You're kidding.
Really. I'm.
Not because nothing from Unova. There's nothing from Callos,
Alola, Galar, Galar, Paldea. There's nothing from his sui.
So yeah, they again this this this line of Pokémon is very
rare in in other regions. Apparently now there are some
unique Pokedex entries. The first one comes to us from
Don's Pokedex. Don, tell me about the crocodile
baby. Come on.
So it says crocodile, the big jaw Pokémon and the evolved form
of totodile. It opens its mouth wide and
attacks and if it loses its teeth, they regrow quickly.
You know, it's she's so perceptive when she studies,
when she studies Pokémon, she just knows so much about them.
And I just, I just, I wish we could just hold hands and look
at crocodile together, you know what I mean?
Like I think that would be the perfect date.
Have you ever talked to her once?
Well, considering she lives like 3 regions away, no.
I have tried to DM her. She doesn't.
She doesn't answer, She doesn't. She really doesn't.
But maybe I'll book a, you know, a train ticket out to cinema.
I'll book a train ticket out to her house and maybe I'll come
visit. That's not weird, right?
That's kind of romantic. That's extremely weird and very
I I I urge you not. Take it from me, Corbin.
People don't like it when you show up randomly at their house
and watch them through their windows.
Then stop doing it. OK, then stop it.
Mr. Curse isn't going to let something as small as somebody
not liking it and stop him from doing what he loves all right?
That's a problematic sentence. Oh, I I mean, I I'm still going
to, I'm still going to do it. But like, you know, I'm just
saying you need to understand that people are probably not
going to like it, so. OK, I got a couple more entries
to read. Let me let me read them, please.
All right, fine. The next one comes to us from
Lira's Pokedex. I do not know who Lira is, but
they say he's gone. Crocodile the big jaw Pokémon
and the evolved form of totodile.
Once it bites down on something, it won't let go until it loses
its fangs. But new fangs grow back quickly.
And there's one more It comes from Cowrie's Cowrie's Pokedex.
I'm not quite sure if I'm saying that name correctly.
This Pokedex says the moves Crocodile is able to use are
bite. Aqua Tail, Superpower and Hydro
Pump. I love it.
I'm glad we get to know all that.
Yeah, I mean, I'm sure it can learn way more moves and it's
kind of, I feel like I'd be pretty upset with my Pokedex is
if all it told me was. What moves the Pokémon nose and
not like you know, some biological facts about the
Pokémon? Interesting facts and figures.
How many teeth it has? You know, those type of things.
Yeah, it's relationship with its teeth.
If it likes its teeth. If it doesn't like its teeth,
it's it's how it cleans its teeth, how it makes sure its
teeth are, you know, strong and healthy.
That would be a fun thing to know.
Too bad that's not any of the Pokedex entries.
What a shame. How quickly is quickly regrowing
the teeth, you know? That I mean, yeah, how quickly
do you guys think I'm going to say maybe 12 hours?
12 hours, OK. Within the day.
They're all back. You guys are kind of like both
on the same page. It's simply like not like it.
The the IT comes out and then like 10 minutes later it has a
brand new tooth, right? Right.
I don't think so. No.
Maybe. Maybe it does.
We'll never know. Hey, hey, hey, other students,
if you've ever You know what? You've ever experimented with a
crocodile and and seen how long their tooth takes to come back?
Let us know. Are you giving my students
assignments, Mr. Heard. Of course not.
I would never presume that's kind of the job of the
professor, last I checked, Professor.
Isn't that right? Maybe you can give them
assignments at your, you know, study sessions in the library.
But yeah, and they don't have to do them at all.
And it doesn't matter at all. And they don't get any grades at
all, because none of it matters. Students, be sure to come to to
study session. Oh my God, stop telling them
what to do. My God, Mr. Curtis, stop and.
Do their own thing. Yeah.
Mr. Curtis, you're so annoying today.
I'm sorry. I have.
I have one more entry here from Professor Neroli.
Let's go. Spaghetti.
So Ken, who researches sleeping habits?
Yes, a sleeping tromboli. That's what the other kids call
him that I've been making friends with the sleep man.
No. Professor Ravioli Professor
Ravioli the Sleep Man. That's right.
It's known to rest one brain hemisphere at a time with the
eye on the opposite side closed. Oh, that's interesting.
So when it's left eye is closed, it's oh, wait, no, that makes
sense. Wait, no.
It's right brain is with left eye is closed.
It's right. Brain is sleeping.
So it's right eye is open. Yes, is so it's right.
Eye is connected to its left. Brain.
Yes, Yep, Yep, that sounds right.
That, I mean, that's what this suggests, which it seems wild,
but whatever. Perhaps this method of sleeping
with alternate halves of its brain is a defense against enemy
attacks. That's very, very similar to
what Professor Stromboli wrote about Totodile, if we remember
from last week. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was going to say it was kind of like that split brain
sleeping thing too. Kind of like.
Very slightly changed the wording.
That's OK That's OK. Professor.
Professor Ravioli isn't perfect. None of us are.
It gets repetitive over here, Professor Linguini.
Yeah, OK, so I need to look. For Professor Stromboli, come on
now, it's. Professor Neroli, if we want to
be honest here. OK, but that does it for all of
the Pokedex entries on Crocanos and now it is time to see if you
guys have been paying attention. Whoa.
Time to want to keep it. Don't ask me that.
My Rotom laptop. No, I'm going to keep it light
and easy today. We're going to do a poem today.
Oh yes, give it to me. I am worth it.
Please. I love this.
So go ahead, take your time. These are always freebies.
Give me a nice exciting poem on on Crocodile Professor.
I am ready with my excellent poem that I'm excited to read
for everybody. Well, that's great.
And I got mine ready too. Oh, OK.
All right. I was going to say some students
are still working, but you're both ready.
OK, So before we read these poems, I want you guys to just,
you know, just look at the person sitting next to you.
Hi. What's up?
OK. And go ahead and hand them your
poem. Switch it?
What? No perfection?
No. Day.
We're reading each other's poem? No.
So. Mr. Curtis will be reading
Corbin's and Corbin will be reading Mr. Curtis's.
Oh, this is going to be awful. OK?
Should I look at it and read it for the first time at the same
time? Does that make sense?
That's yeah, that's fine however you want to do it, but I'll.
I'll let you go first, OK? OK.
I am now looking at Mr. Curtis's.
I'm sure it's going to be a great poem, buddy.
Here we go. Mr. Curtis Does it have a title
or can I come up with it at the very end?
You can come up with it at the very end.
All right, here we go. I call this one.
I'll come up with it at the very end.
OK, here we go. White fangs numbered 48.
A powerful bite that won't abate if lost.
They grow back fast. No need to wait.
Bent back like hooks digging into bait, will never allow its
foes to abdicate. Huge open jaws, impossible to
sate. That's it.
Beautiful. Was it?
Was it everything you do? You think it was as good as if
you had read it. Oh, of course not.
But I it still moved me to tears.
What a beautiful I can't wait to hear Mr. Curtis butcher mine.
OK, what's What's the title, though?
Corin oh Fang hooks. Oh well.
That's awful. That's a terrible.
Title I was going to I was going to Awful.
Paul Well, the the That's incorrect.
The title was 48, but you know, nice try.
Oh OK. Sorry.
My bad, my bad. OK.
All right. So, Mr. Curtis, let's hear what
Corbin has. OK.
Quick, let me just quick Oh no, no, don't drink your syrup, OK?
Your syrup. I have to cleanse my palate.
This is going to be a rough on the tonsils here.
It's worth that you put ice in your syrup, but OK all.
Right gaping Hollowed Maw, my fearsome crocodile.
Dozens of fangs lie within broken bones, but born again, it
plays with prey that preys and sways, a show of the foe that
won't let go thrashing about. While loud shouts get drowned
out by the cries of lives that can't hide from split sides,
tightly gripped jaws, a gruesome crocking off filaments worn
until ligaments torn attempts to flee are forlorn.
Wow. Actually, it wasn't bad Mr.
Curtis. Mr. Curtis that poem was
incredible. Amazing work today.
Thank you. Thank you.
I did. No, I wrote it.
Are you? Serious extra credit for How
serious? Thank you.
No, you didn't. Something about the cadence and
the way he read it wasn't right. Oh my gosh, you have to Curtis.
You have to have a little bit of Ave. you.
You really went above and beyond today, Mr. Curtis Corbin.
You could stand to learn nothing or two.
I wrote it longer. Oh my God, Mr. Curtis That's
right, I wrote it. But great work, you guys both
get a hundreds today. Cuz that's how poems work.
Yeah, hold. On hold on, that one's called
Ligaments Torn. Thank you.
Yes, yes, yes. That's the that's a pretty good
title. That's actually a pretty good
title. I could just honestly just be
torn. And that would be pretty good
too. Yep, both A07-O.
I agree with you, Professor. 070 OK and upside down U instead of
an N. Right.
Good idea. Yeah, good idea.
We're all full of ideas, all right.
But that's going to do it for today's lesson on croc and naw.
Does anybody know who we're learning about next week?
It is the evolved form of croc and naw Oh Oh my good, golly,
gracious. This is one of my top 10.
Favorites. This is professor, is it
decision? Why?
No, this is it's time we get to finally learn about Turtwick.
You know, you teased me a few weeks ago, and now it's finally
time. Did I tease you?
I didn't tease you. You did.
You said we were gonna learn about Turtwig during the
Syndequal Listen, but we're just gonna call it Syndequal.
Yeah, and I did what I said we were gonna do, so I don't see.
But now it's time to actually learn about Turtwig, right?
So you think Turtwig is the evolved form of crocodile?
Wait, is the evolved form? Or is it just what comes after
the Pokedex? I said, I'm pretty sure I just
said it's the evolved form of Crockett.
He did say that. Then it's definitely for
alligator, if that's the case. Thank you.
I'm glad you know your toe to dial evolutionary line.
I do Corbin, because yes, we are learning about for alligator
next week and I believe next week's lesson will be around the
same time as Halloween. So.
So I might think I'm a little bit spooky.
It's it's a pretty spooky Pokémon.
Oh well, it'll be the day after Halloween, but I will still wear
my costume. Yeah, bring everybody bring
bring your costumes to to class. Sure, you got it.
You got it. OK.
All right. So that's going to do it for
today's lesson. If anybody has questions for me,
you can use the link tree link in our description or yeah, it's
in our description, right. Right, Corbin.
Oh, yeah. It's in our description.
Yeah, go for it. Use the link tree link to find
all of our socials, Our genger mail, our Twitter, our
Instagram, Instagram. It's there.
It's got one. It's there.
It's empty, but it's there. Oh, we're posting.
OK, sorry, silly me.
And also links the discord to the Patreon.
You know what, Mr. Curtis? What do you know about the
Patreon? I don't.
Want to hear about it? Well, I I know that for only
$1.00. A month you can get access to
the beautiful, inspiring, invigorating drawing of
crocodile than I drew today during class.
And you know what? There's actually two of everyone
and you get to pick one of them. I do blind.
Without looking at a picture. Of the Pokémon you get to pick
one, you only get to look at 1:00.
Well, no, no. You could look at I, I, I I draw
both. OK, there's there's a blind.
There's a blind version without me referencing the Pokémon.
Yeah, he draws. He draws one of them.
But they would be like if they couldn't see right?
And it's the same image, they just have white eyes.
No, they just have sunglasses on.
Oh, OK, Yeah. Look.
Really cool. And then and then the other one
is me looking at a reference photo.
And and you get to decide which one is better.
Hint. The one from my imagination is
always the better one. I don't think so.
It always brings me the most joy.
Yeah, So that's that's the only thing worth going on to the
Patreon for, right? Mr. Herder?
Yes, yeah. Do we have, do we have any other
garbage up there? You get that, and you also get
access to the Saffron Sitting Learning Center's online forums,
IER Discord. Well, that's actually the lobby.
The lobby is the Saffron City. That's actually the Saffron
Sitting Learning Center. It's the lobby, that's what Mr.
Curtis. Just said OK, right?
I do miss that library. And then you also get.
You also get access to special question and answer content
bloopers. You know, things like that as
well. And if we get to $200.00 a
month, then we may do a No, not may.
Not. May.
No. What's going to happen?
We're going to do a Nuz Lock challenge and we're going to
play through an We're going to play through an entire We're
going to play through an entire Pokémon game and do a Nuz Lock
challenge. If you don't know what Nuz Lock
challenge is, highly recommend you look it up.
It is a really fun way to play a Pokémon game.
Check it out. All right, that's going to do it
for today's lesson. So until next time class is
dismissed.
