Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob. And this is my lecture series on
Pokemon biology. Joining me here.
Today is, of course, my wonderful teaching assistant mr.
Curtis, please, say hello to everybody, mr.
Curtis, oh, oh, oh, oh, thank you, Professor.
Oh, I'm so happy your toe. Oh, sorry.
That's no, I'm just excited. Sounds like it's like, I'm just,
uh, I'm sorry here. Let me sit down.
I'm sorry. I'm just really excited.
Yeah, actually stand back up real quick.
Oh yeah, yeah, sure. Whenever you call my name, I
just, I just danced around. I have to stand up and just show
my three little turn. That's right.
Make a little love. Yeah, that's right now, sit back
down, please. Yes, sir, you are here.
All right, I'm ready. Yeah, man, I love, I love the
scraping of chairs against the floor.
It's just one of my yeah, there's a lot of marks.
There by that desk, mr. Curtis, you should probably uh,
probably not scrape. The chairs.
You should probably just pick them up.
I mean, whatever gets me up quicker when the professor
calls, I must answer. That's true, that's good.
And the other person that we have here in the classroom today
is, of course, our trainer and training Corbin.
Please say hello to everybody. Corpsman afternoon boarding,
good evening, whatever time you other fellow students of mine or
peers. Not students.
I'm not the professor saw. Re fellow friends peers.
I guess you could say of mine, whatever, whatever, whatever
your have, your blessing, this month, they classmates make.
That's for expert. What's up?
Fellow classmates? We're diving into lesson today.
And yeah. All right.
It's like being here alone. I'll be honest.
I still don't like being the only kid in class.
It's a little lonely. I mean, yeah Mr. Curry is like a
kitten Spirit if that it's not. Yeah, every obvious like I've
been reborn. Every time I walk into this
class That's a little weird. But you know that explains why
he's always like, you know, damn I see the world with new eyes,
all right? Settle down, settle down.
All right. So let's let's let's get into
the reason that we're here. Let's talk about some Pokemon
has anybody know what Pokemon we're going to talk about today?
Oh, so we just finished talking about the bat Pokémon.
You know, last time we talked about Zubat and Golbat.
I wasn't this one like a plant or something.
It is A grass-type Pokémon. Exactly isn't technically a
plant. It's still a Pokémon.
Did you say abre I did? Abra is it a brother?
No, it's not. It's not Africa.
That's a psychic-type Pokémon. Okay, rock could do bro.
Well, you see how if we haven't talked about a burger yet, we're
definitely not talking about Kadabra because that's the
evolved form of a brousseau know what about Hitmonchan?
OK. No OK guys get get back to the
Whole, like, you know, grass type thing.
It's a grass-type. Oh, sorry Turtwig, it's got to
be Turtwig. Okay, you guys missed your
chance. We're learning about Oddish.
Oh yes, which is of course the weed Pokemon.
Well, I know, I know he's, I know he's odd, but what I got
it, I got it. It's, it's a tricot, right?
Yeah, if he's Treecko's, a pretty odd looking guys.
Wow. The Pokey is a Treecko now.
The Pokemons name is Oddish. Oh, so you nicknamed it.
So how does an honest? So is honest name is Osso.
DD is H Oddish. All right the week, OK on?
OK, gotcha. Are we all need same page?
I think so. I think so.
Okay. So his name is weed.
Okay, sure. I guess that we're talking about
we and the Oddish Pokémon. Okay.
Gotcha makes sense. Now, I'm not clicking.
No. Okay, we're talking about, we're
talking about Oddish. Have you guys seen an Oddish
before? I mean you probably have but you
missed. I mean it for like you know,
I've eaten a few salads in my day.
I think I can have a pretty good idea.
Yeah, I mean they are just kind of like during the daytime
they're just kind of like Lives in the ground.
Look, I've had I've had some salads with blueberries in them.
I think I know what an honest looks like.
I don't know if I need to see one today.
I mean, yeah. That's why they, that's why they
call it ordering the Oddish when you get a blueberry salad and
any kind of restaurant because just okay, just for the hell of
it. Just keep bring it out real
quick. Yeah, actually, you know, we do
it's we have a special guest today, so Jerry, Jerry, can you
please come in here? Why?
Yeah, Jerry this is not this is not us, right?
This. Yeah, this is Jerry The Oddish.
All right. Hi Jerry.
Got you guys all know Gary Wright are Shroomish.
That's the the groundskeeper around here.
Well, Jerry Jerry the Oddish actually used to be the
groundskeeper before Gary. Yeah, I thought even I thought
he looked familiar. Oh, okay, so we got fire.
No. No, he wasn't.
He wasn't fired. He You did such a great job, he
was actually promoted to the groundskeeping manager and so he
know he oversees all that kind of stuff and always so get make
more to Jerry. Yes, it is, it is a direct Gary
to Jerry relationship in rights, he fate, right.
You'll. All right, so yeah, I mean, if
you have any questions about, you know, the grounds around
here was like being an Oddish like now is the perfect time to
to ask them. I would do that, but they cannot
respond. I don't think it Oddish can
speak English. So Okay, well, here here, let me
ask it a question. Oddish, are you enjoying your
new role as sorry? I'm sorry.
Jerry Jerry. His name is Jerry, guys.
Come on, let's not call him. It's all like I called you
human, or he didn't like that. He did.
I don't call Corbin human. I don't call mr.
Curtis F3. Spinner accent, trench coat.
Now, I call you by your names. Right.
Right right. Of course.
Thank you. Jerry Jerry, how are you liking
your new position as the groundskeeping manager?
But yeah, it is definitely a lot more, you know, rewarding right?
Right man. You're such a great employee.
Jerry, I'm so glad that we that we hired you.
All right? Any other questions, any other
questions for Jerry? How much do you get paid?
Okay, Jerry has a lot of work, he needs to get done.
So, so here. What's your income?
So, he's gonna head out now, many square feet are in your
house. He doesn't see.
He has oval Feet. So that's a really weird
question to ask him. Alright, bye.
Jerry. By close the door, please.
Thank you, Iris. That was Jerry.
Jerry the Oddish. Yeah, definitely salad blueberry
combo. I get it.
He's whatever. Wow, I'd like to see you say
that to his face. I just know what.
That's he, he was okay. Just, you know, special boy to
me. I mean, we've look, we went from
seeing a giant flying bat Pokemon.
That can suck blood and frankly, Sucked my blood out of my neck.
I still have bruising on my neck actually, and now we just saw a
little fuckity plant. Just kind of walking.
I mean, you know, it's just a little bit of a downgrade from
last week emphasis on big to like, I don't think we really
hammered this point home very well, but Golbat, for those of
you listening at home gold, that's 5 feet tall.
No, she's a big boy. Oh, shit is crazy.
Yeah, somebody came out of the Pokeball of course, but It is
100 on average of gold as 121 pounds.
So like they're not small, that's pretty scary.
Comparatively though an Oddish is like about one foot tall and
that's including all the leaves. So yeah, cute little baby
blueberry salad thing. But, you know, not exciting, but
kind of guy. Really need to pick his brain.
About fertilized, the fertilizer.
He uses for the berries around here, really need to step up my
growing game. It's not and does Oddish.
Just a quick question does Oddish.
Also emit fumes that I can you please raise your hand.
Hey, what's up? Hello.
Hey, I'm not seeing any questions.
I'll go ahead. I'm kidding Corbin.
Go ahead. Ask your question.
Ha. Ha.
Comedy gold. Professor.
Um, does Auto shipment fumes? Kind of like Shroomish that make
me feel good? I don't think so.
It does release pollen and doesn't really release fumes.
Oh yeah. Paul doesn't make me feel good.
Gross yeah. Yeah, no more like Itchy and
Scratchy and Sneezy. But you know and and Curtis I'm
actually I'm glad that you brought up for a the how
fertilized soil is because you will find in the pilgrims
entries that you can tell how fertilizer soil is by using an
Oddish. And speaking of the Pokedex
entries, I thought I'd I thought I'd, you know, mix it up a
little bit this week. Yeah, instead of me reading all
the Pocono Professor, I'll do it.
I'll do it for you. Yeah, I think I think I'll you
know, like, Around the room, okay?
And I'll have the different students, you know, whoever it
is randomly. I'll choose randomly.
Okay, who will read the Pokedex entries for a specific region?
So, is that sound good to you guys?
Yeah. Yeah, I think that sounds fun.
Can I have your piece of paper to look at the entries?
Get any moment. We all we all brought Pokedex.
Has. That's been established that you
always wanted. Oh, right, right.
Okay. We got it was working to that
Pokédex. That's right.
My bad. Okay.
All right. Now who's gonna go first?
He's gonna tangle first question.
I'll volunteer. Um-hmm, I'm gonna say, I'm gonna
say Corbin I'm gonna say, even if you could, please already the
Kanto polka dot shirt. Okay, cool.
Well, that's fine. All right.
So what's Outreach you too? It's fine.
I got it. Okay, so here we go.
Here's here's here. We're here a little bit.
Here's here's where we know about great that my brakes are
malfunction. Sorry.
I know it's a lot. It's a lot of pressure.
I know, sorry. I know it's a lot.
I'm really nervous. I've never done this before.
Alright. So here's the Kanto entries for
Oddish during the day it honest. Keeps its face buried in the
ground at night. It wanders around sewing, it
seems okay. All right.
Okay, interesting, yes. Oh, alright.
So, we know now that it's a nocturnal Pokemon much like
Golbat and Zubat. What do you mean sewing?
Its seeds. Like this is just like planting
seeds in the ground during the day, I guess.
No, at night at night, it's so seeds at night.
But is it? Is it what it is?
He's growed up. Does it grow more Oddish?
Certainly not. Otherwise there would be Oddish
everywhere. Yeah.
A little bit unclear, what they mean by selling its seeds, but I
don't know either because we have, we know that every single
Pokemon Oddish included reproduces, by making an egg,
right? So you get you get polishes from
eggs not from seed, so, Waters around planting seeds, I guess,
just to eat that. Don't know.
It's like its own food, me know, it's hard.
It's hard to say, keep reading and we'll learn a little bit of
time it out. Yeah.
All right. Another entry from Kanto and may
be mistaken by a clump of weeds. If you try to yank it out of the
ground, it shrieks. Holy yeah.
Listen. Yeah.
Do not bring your face. You did not want to wake Jerry
up before you before. He's had his morning cup of
coffee. Like It Is Well, night-night
time cup, a cup of coffee. I mean, I've, he's evening cup
of coffee. I have seen Jerry when he gets
out of the wrong side of the of the garden patch and he is not
someone you. To deal with.
Yeah, well, I screaming and shrieking, it's pretty terrible.
Yeah. So basically the equivalent of
grabbing somebody's hair and just pulling them as hard as you
can. Well, yeah, I think, I think
we'll find out. There's other reasons why an
Oddish might shriek when it gets pulled out of the ground.
But let's keep reading and c-in-c.
Welcome. All right.
Last can't do is create korben korben.
What you're doing a great job by the way Corbin.
Thank you, did, you did misread a little bit in that last one
but hey, that's fine. They haven't.
Hey, you know what? Sometimes you do that.
I never I never get that but sometimes sometimes Burrows
underground in the day. Oddish, does Oddish, Burrows
underground in the day. Exposing only its leaves.
It is set to scream loudly. If anyone tries to yank it out
which we already know. Yeah, cool things.
All right, how about joto? All right, so yeah that does it
for can tell. Let's move on to the Johto
region are, do I have any volunteers for from me?
I got it. Corbin.
Read the first one, I can read you two.
Okay. All right.
Let's have Corbin. Let's have Corbin Reach Out.
All right, all right. I'll get the next one.
Okay. Alright, awakened By Moonlight.
It roams actively at night in the day it stays quietly
underground already know that. Okay.
If exposed to Moonlight, it starts to move at Rome's far and
wide at night to scatter its seeds.
Okay. Same thing as sewing a seeds
during the day, it stays in the cold underground to avoid the
sun. It grows by bathing in
Moonlight. See, that's funny because you
would think that it would prefer sunlight.
Yeah. Yeah.
I would think. I mean, it's, it must have
because we know that the moon has special properties, right?
Yeah, from Clefairy and clefable and all the other Pokémon of all
with Moonstone. So maybe and because one of the
ones he said earlier says that when it's like it's awakened By
Moonlight, if it's exposed to Moonlight, it starts to move
around, right? So there's something special
about the Moonlight that activates a a The activated
Notch and I think also like it's in that last night you read it
to this day is in the coal underground to avoid the Sun.
So part of it is that it's activated by the moon but also
it's like it's actually hurt by the sun.
Well, I was probably doing it to keep cool cause if it's damn the
same spot all day it would get kind of hot you know.
I mean cause it's trying to grow its leaves I mean it does it
does stay in the same spot all day.
What I'm saying. It stays underground to keep it
because if it stays in the same spot completely exposed it's
gonna get hot from the Sun. Going to stay underground to
keep itself cool. Little bit.
You know, I mean. Yeah.
Yes. Oh well yeah, exactly.
And then that's what that pokedex entry says last one.
Well the same thing. What?
And that. It's the exact same thing as the
I mean it's pretty much the same thing.
Yeah, exact same moves around what awakens up in Moonlight.
Okay, cool. So we already we kind of being a
little bit new information there.
That's just a little bit Johto. Encanto kind of kept it very
similar. Yeah there were guards so I
think it's time to move on to the Hoenn region.
I think there's a lot of really interesting information here
from from Hoenn. Oh, okay.
All right. So I think we're switch it up
this time. Okay.
Okay, that's fair right. We're gonna have Corbin.
We're gonna have Corbin Professor.
You are you certain about that? Oh, well.
What's the problem? What's the problem?
Nothing, of course. Are you are you questioning, are
you questioning restaurant? I would never, I would never
Curtis. I think you should chill out.
What the professor do, his idea Corbett, Curtis, you've had
your, you've had a chance to read a lot of these entries.
And I think it's finally, I think it's time to give Corman a
chance to read side a grey Street.
Very true. Mmm, alrighty.
So Hoenn region here we go. During the daytime Oddish,
buries itself in soil to absorb nutrients from the ground, using
its entire body, okay? That makes more sense.
The more fertile, the soil, the glossier.
Its leaves become. There we go.
Alright, so, if you want a glossy, Oddish, you got to put
it in some fertile soil. Okay.
So it basically, in order to make a shiny Oddish which we've
never talked about shiny type Pokemon here.
Now, there's no such thing as a shiny type, I don't know.
I mean, well, that's the psychic-type, is this, like your
type? And there's a ghost High bar.
I don't know how you get a shiny sights high above the best type.
I mean bug type is what it's called silence.
Except those of us who are insect-type, purists, we prefer
insect over bug. Thank you very much.
Well, and then you would know that that 12 in Iraq.
Isn't an insect? It is a bug, look.
All I'm saying is My cousins of told me that Shiny Pokemon are
thing that look different over that that is true variant in the
coloring of a Pokemon that as of that is a thing.
It's rarely happens but it's true.
But this is this isn't what we're talking about here.
It was a shot. It's specifically says glossy,
not necessarily Shrine. Mosque, got you.
Got you got you, okay. All right.
So Oddish searches for fertile nutrient-rich soil than plants
itself. During the daytime, while it is
planted, this Pokemons feet are Thought to change shape, it
becomes similar to the roots of trees.
So I, if we think back, I think this might be a reason why it
shrieks horribly. If you rip it out of the ground,
you might be 0 like yeah, harming its Feats when you pull
it out of the ground. Yeah, it's changing the shape so
that it can absorb nutrients better.
Yeah. Wow.
Okay. Yeah.
I'm so instead of these projects entry is kind of go back and
forth on whether or not those things that that Oddish like
moves around on whether or not those are Feet or if those are
Roots, they're kind of like room feet, right?
Route feet. Yes he.
Alright. So here we go.
This Pokemon Grows by absorbing Moonlight.
We know this during the daytime at buries itself in the ground
which we know leaving only its leaves exposed.
But this time it says to avoid detection by its enemies.
So we have another reason why it's chills, its whole body in
the ground because yeah when it's underground my question
underground like that it just looks like a couple of leaves
Oops, that's all. Look a she's gonna sleep.
So it looks like just like I know the plan.
Yeah, and we got one more here from the Hoenn region and it
says, its scientific name is odium wonderous at night at the
house, everybody. Everybody write that down.
That's important to know. Oh, diem.
I've tattooed it on my eyelids. I know Mike, you can't do that.
That quickly, mr. Curtis.
He, he, he already had that again, you forget that mr.
Curtis has been through this class multiple time, right?
That's true. I never noticed that, mr.
Curtis you have. Diem wonderous tattoo on your
eyelids. Nice always wondered what that
said? Yeah, it's in cursive.
So it's got a little pack of his eyelids so you can see it and
closes. I gotcha cat, when I go to sleep
at night, yeah. Okay, so at night it is said to
nearly walk a thousand feet on its two routes.
So now it's again, it's confirming.
Defeat Our Roots. Yeah.
And also a thousand feet isn't isn't really that far?
It's not, that's like not even two miles.
It's one-fifth of a mile. Wait wait.
Wait, no, you're right, you're right, I'm Mouse 5200, okay?
You're right, okay, that's not the 1,000 feet, it's nothing.
It's not going to stepson at all, all right, that's it for
how one. All right.
Yeah, okay. Alright, so time to move on to
the center region Professor regions.
Very, very short. So I'm sorry, I'm giving you a
short one but basically this one's for me.
It's okay. Yeah, Corbin can go ahead and
read this, okay? Sure.
It often play its root feet in the ground during the day and so
seeds as it. Talks about at night.
I like how it splits the difference and that when I call
instead of saying roots or feet, it says root.
See it's like it's like beer cheese.
Couldn't come to an agreement, so they just threw them both in
there. Yes, exactly.
Yeah. It all the other entries, pretty
much say, the same thing that we've already established.
Yeah. Yeah.
And I think that, you know, her reason region is the same as it
fucking always is. Yeah, I mean, that's yeah,
that's fine. Um, you know, regions, nothing
different. How lows Carlos has?
Calluses the same thing. Yep.
And so is a Lola. Hey, you know mr.
Curtis, can you read the the ghoul?
Our region ones me. I get two years ago.
Yeah, I actually don't worry about reading that.
Yeah. Okay, wow, that was shorter very
repetitive. Well, that does it for the
regional. Yes, we still have unique you,
the unique Pokedex entries. And I have a little have a
little article here about oddest you that we, we should read.
So, I'm sure Corbin. Could you read the unique
pokedex entry for how can I read the unique pokedex entry?
Yeah, you bet I can. All right, cool unique pokedex
entry in. This comes from ashes Pokedex
Ash. He gets around, man.
All right, Oddish. This Pokemon is typically found
roaming the forest scattering pollen as a walks around.
So now we hear that it's supposedly plants or so, Those
seeds and now pollen? Yeah, is it pollen or is it the
seeds? I mean, our policy.
I don't know or why either like what is it doing with those
seeds as it? Like what is it doing with a
seeds is just regular? Like other plants that it's
making? Hey, it's just look.
Are there are all Oddish has Garden.
Tenders are they set? Are they spreading random seats
around? Or is it like little baby Oddish
seats? That they're spreading around.
The can't be baby out. See it's because all the shoes
come from eggs. All Pokemon do.
How many seats does every Oddish have?
I don't know. He hasn't anyone.
How many C's Jerry Sydney? Chart is 0-2 have an article
today. Professor.
Yeah, we do actually so here. Yeah.
Actually, since you asked for it corpsman, if you have to want to
read that. Sure.
Yeah, I can read that too. Let's, let's check and see if
this is factual based on what we've learned about Oddish from
the Pokedex entries. Yeah.
All right. Great intro.
Thank you that's it. Hey you know what?
They thought about myself. I'm gonna go ahead and put my
thinking cap on so I can really take this.
This is the test for you to Professor.
We're all trying to figure this out if this is real or not.
All right. So Oddish is a Pokemon that
resembles a blue plant bulb follow through.
That's not your know, my Pokémon.
It has a round body. It's not a good eyes.
What? I'm sorry.
It's a figment. It's a figment of my
imagination. Not a Pokemon professor.
No, nobody. Nothing is real.
Everything's in my brain. Oh, all right.
Now I'm getting confused. Malaysian Gaza.
Pokemon cheese, nobody can take a joke around here.
You know what, that's what we need to know.
What next lesson is on taken jokes.
Now I have to scratch all this out.
Oh man, I think you should be the only one that attends like
class, because you're the one that makes the terrible jokes
here. Just saying, I think professors
jokes are hilarious going continuing on about, I should
says it is a round body Beady. Red eyes a small mouth and
Overjoyed feet. Well, you feel like echo of
those sound like insults. Although said he's got a round
body with Beady red eyes. Yeah, yes move.
Its little mouth, stupid little baby mouth.
This thing OVO, a feat avoid I think its just oh boy.
Oh that's a void ovoid. It's not avoid it.
So avoid as Anna. Sophia its feet.
So ugly, you want to avoid it? Yeah, right.
New sentence, five large green leaves, Sprout from attend.
Okay, I guess that makes sense. These leaves are brown, Hensel
and can be used to scale vertical surfaces?
Right catch light object. Yeah, I don't know what the, I
don't know if that's true or not.
My child leaves. What the heck?
I don't know that that's ever. That's never mentioned in the
Pokédex. Oh, yeah, that's accurate.
No One Bite known by. The scientific name.
Odium wonderous Otis. Wow.
Oddish lives in. Grassland, oh, wait, wait, wait.
Is it odium Wanderers or is it ADI?
Mm Wanderers. It's probably, I think, probably
audio. I think.
It's a sodium wander Ross. Oh, did he?
Yeah. All right, would be continued.
See our new paragraph and nocturnal, Pokemon Oddish.
Buries its sensitive body in the ground in during the day, stupid
sensitive Bhai, please Professor?
I'm trying to read. I'm so I'm just so eager to
learn it. Buries its sensitive body in the
ground during the day to avoid the sun in fool.
Predators, if its leaves are pulled in this state, it will
respond by shrieking horribly. It starts to move when it's
leaves began absorbing Moon. Right.
Which it uses to grow, Otis will wander up to 1,000 feet or 300
meters during the night to scattered seeds and find a
nutrient-rich patch of soil in which to plant itself.
The more fertile, the Earth, the glossier its leaves will be it
is thought that its feet become like tree roots while planted
okay. Okay.
All right. Let's yeah most of that's right
I'm a little weird about the whole using its leaves to climb
stuff for ya. Almost sounds like it's almost
almost sounds like Like, you know, like they were writing
that like that article, and then they just did a line of coke and
then they wrote that. Want that next line where it's
their leaves are prehensile making scales vertical surfaces
with them and then kind of like, took like an hour long breather
while then came back line of polka.
Cola. How does that make sense?
That's right. Sorry, I forgot your 10.
You don't, you don't know recreational drug use yet.
That's okay. I don't we'll get there, we'll
get there although you kind of do because maybe another class
you kind of like you know, do that.
With Gary the Shroomish I do sniff Gary the Shroomish, but I
didn't know that was a bad thing, just think of it.
Think of it as doing a line of of Gary Gary stuff is fun.
You know, I carry Lyme if you will, I want to do a Gary, why?
That's right, listen of a line of alignment, and if you do too
much, Gary in one sitting, you'll find Jerry pulling you
out of the Garden. That night, that's true.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a cure.
I hear Jerry has reprimand reprimand.
Gary a bunch of times for, you know, having people pass out on
his long as land, that's right. Yeah, that happened to my cousin
Terry. Once and that's not, that's not
fun. You don't have a cousin Terry.
You're right. I'm sorry.
His name is Perry. All right.
That's all. That's all the data that we
have. I will be the one who decides
whether. Okay?
Okay. Okay.
I mean it is all the data that we have Professor agrees.
I wanted to read more this time Professor.
You know what? Maybe maybe not.
You're right, you're right, I think looking back, looking back
now. I might have leaned a little bit
heavily on Corbin just a bit for this one.
Maybe maybe next time. I'll try to shake it up and I'll
do like a purely random yeah method.
And there we go. That's a good idea.
Sure, that's a good idea. Listen Professor whatever you
want to do just know that I will be doing extensive.
Training over the course of the next week so that I can be ready
for class. Next time, I will be, I will be
the Rhett. I will be the best reader.
The rest reader you've ever had raro.
Am I right? So, are you going to practice
your vocal warm-ups by shrieking loudly like an Oddish?
I might get some input from Jerry but you know I've got my
own clitter clatter way of practicing.
So clitter clatter, okay. All right, let's not flat.
That's the sound that says spinner acts.
Make when they're happy. That's what this will do.
Is what we call it, the sound they make when they're mad.
It's kind of like a kind of like a noise.
I didn't I didn't hear any of that.
Can you do it again? But like, a little bit little
bit closer to the recording device.
It's like This is like my TV. Wowed.
All right, all right, I guess that's the end of class, right?
All right, I'll be in truth. No, no, it's not.
So, let's let's do it. Let's go ahead and put away,
your Pokedex has get our laptops, our or sorry.
I wrote on laptops, our calculator is our pencils and
paper everything everything we need because it is time for a
pop quiz. Are we all wrong?
No, no, I don't want to hear it all.
All right, everybody knows is, Professor Jacobs.
Favorite time, is it? Yeah, this is my listen.
It's your favorite time. It's my favorite time to
Professor. Alright and so it must be
Corbin's favorite time as well. No, I my favorites bath time.
We we don't we don't do bath time here and I'm class you
don't. Yeah, you know I do it after
class. You might take a bath every day
after class when I get home. Because okay, around Curtis
makes me feel dirty as long as we're not take a bath in the
classroom and I have to, no, not yet.
I have to bathe the classroom every day after class.
Oh God, how's it? Down.
All right. So let's let's focus up question
number one. All right?
So, this is one of those blanks like fill in the blanks, but
it's, um, it's like fill-in-the-blank twice.
Remember, we did that with Wartortle and it confused
everybody. And so I haven't done it again
since, but well, I gosh darn it. I did it again.
So, two blanks, huh? So there's three blanks.
Oh, to make a full sentence, but you have to like fill them in
twice, all right? So six answers so there's six.
There's six individual answers. Yes.
Oh my goodness. Okay, alright.
Okay let's do it. All right, push number one,
Oddish is blank will absorb blank during the blank, all
right? There's there's two ways to fill
this out. Will absorb blank blank during
the playing, okay? Okay.
Okay, that's three answers right there.
Well there's two. There's three blanks, three
blanks, and okay to full answers to make with those blanks.
Okay? So what's the next part of the
question? No, there isn't a next part.
It's just that one sentence. But you see that sentence is so
cleverly, crafted and versatile. That can actually, depending on
what words you put into the blanks, can make two different
sentences that are true about Oddish.
Let me guess. Let's go ahead and look over the
Corbin's answer. Well, waiting for.
Don't laugh. You always always know what's
wrong with you laughs. So I'll change it corpsman.
You've only answered it once I need I need both.
Oh wait. So say the say that again I
don't. I don't understand why this is
so confusing. Sanderson's again, the words can
be replaced several times. All right, say together shoes
blank will absorb blank during the tank.
I got it. I changed my answer.
Are you sticking with romantic orbit?
I'm sorry. I know.
I know you told me not to laugh, but yeah.
Now hey, after you submit your right, you can't, you can't
change it. You can't save Curtis.
If Curtis was not submitted his and then no, that's not how it
works. Not how it is the rule.
We just said it a thousand. No it's not.
No I said if you edit the answer it's an automatic fail.
No that's the rule early of said you can change the answer as
Long as the other person has not submitted yet.
We've said that many, many lessons.
Well then I must have been high on on Gary fumes because I
guarantee you, I being of sound body and sound mind would not
say that I want to let's just submitted via what is we take a
hit, I think it's alright, okay. Alright, so Corbin responded
with eyelashes body will absorb nutrients from the soil?
During the day. But then he also said Oddish is
leaves will absorb sunlight during the day.
That's correct. It's interesting that you went
with day twice Corbin and not you know, nighttime but
interesting. We'll see.
We'll see what we'll see if mr. Carson answer is any different,
mr. Curtis says, on ashes, entire
body will absorb nutrients from the ground.
During the daytime. Honest is leaves will absorb
Moonlight during ventricular. Night.
I thought it would also of I mean it does literally absorb
sunlight to no it does no, no, no.
It never said that it absorbs sunlight.
In fact, it does it avoid sunlight, all right, but it's
still absorbing it. It's still kind of absorbing if
it's out, you know. I mean it's not though it's the
sunlight harms it it's and you know it's you guys both said
entire body. I pray.
It says its roots. All right, it's It feeds what?
Store know it says, it's full body.
Sure, Corbin said his entire body.
Its entire body is under. It's only the leaves that are
exposed because if it had his entire body exposed then
Predators would see it. Well, yes, it does planets
entire body but it absorbs nutrients from its feet.
Okay, whatever it also said, I do know what, you know what, you
know what, I'm reading from the Hoenn and says honest buries
itself to absorb nutrients from the ground, using its entire
body. All right, I'm gonna go see how
your body. All right, right, there you go.
All right. Mormon, you still get half
points on this. That's fair.
Okay, fine, whatever. I still think it kind of absorbs
sunlight, hey, sunlight comes from the Moon Moon, like, moon
light comes from the Sun, so I'm still in late.
It's true that moon light is reflected sunlight, but it's
very different and it's day somewhere else. 5:00 somewhere.
You know what I mean? So it's daylight.
So it's not, it's always 5:00 in this class.
I'll take it on the but that's fine because it's my party our
um, I don't, I never want to go to mr.
Curtis party. I'm sorry me neither.
Hey, don't worry. You're already there.
Question number two. How might one you is an Oddish
to determine how fertile their soil is.
Seems a little bit easier. It's not as confusing as
apparently, the first one is both of the answers are and the
question being how can use a oddest determine if your soil is
fertile quarter? I said quartus mixing both of
your names together. My goodness, I'm losing it.
And where's Corben responded with by looking at how glossy
the Oddish leaves are and mr. Curtis responded with the
glossier, the Oddish, the more, the more for fertile, the soil,
because when Oddish buries itself, it absorbs nutrients and
gets really glossy. So, I could be, I could be like,
a dick here, and I could say, hmm, it's specifically The the
leaves mr. Curtis that get glossy.
Not an artist. I get guys, I give him half.
No, I'm gonna give him full points because that's right.
It, picky and Professor that's it's just not a good look to
have Professor. I place myself in your arms.
Oh Jesus. Oh, I'm not that strong.
Oh God, that's uncomfortable. That's right.
Please please. Please don't just embrace the
professor without asking stops bubbling up into my arms.
I can't carry your weight. Okay, first I won't do that.
Alright question, number three, good job guys, by the way,
question number three in addition to absorbing Moonlight
what else does Oddish do as it is wandering around at night.
Okay, both the answers are in from Corbin and mr.
Curtis, let's go ahead and give them a quick read Corbin
responded by saying that in addition to absorbing Moonlight
at night, he says that Oddish also sews see seeds at night and
mr. Curtis says honest likes to
spread its seeds far and wide as it explores.
The nighttime World, it wonders wonders, huh, he said be cool.
Oh you met wanders, w w it all. What is all this the world at
wonders? He wanders about wandering.
High be nice to walk more than 1,000.
I'm sure wonders. I'm sure wonders the nighttime
world too but I didn't you're correct Professor.
I didn't mean wonders. It's like, This is like, why am
I spreading this? What is this C do?
Why am I spreading the see? No, no, but I'm gonna use my
purpose, you spread seed mine but my purpose is to be here for
you Professor. All right, that's enough, that's
disappointing. So yeah, so it does it does
scattered seeds. You guys are both correct.
I would have also accepted that it scatters its pollen which I'm
going is a more accurate answer than see it's but yeah.
Yeah. The Pokedex is tend to say
seeds, well only one said pollen but you know, whatever, I didn't
write them. All right.
Question number, or what happens if you pull an Oddish out of the
ground during the day and bonus? Why does it react this way?
This is a, this is a bonus because doesn't specifically say
in the Pokédex, entry is why it screams, but I think we can make
some assumption that there's some Potential answers here that
you could give me. So you want bonus points korben
korben. You might wanna yes.
Okay. Sorry as well as making sure
making sure you're going for it because like you're going to
lose anything. If you get it wrong, there's my
dignity. I'll just use lose my respect
for you, which let's be honest. You haven't had that for a
while, and your, and your deposit in class.
That's true. All right.
Both of the answers have been submitted.
So I'm going to go ahead and read them.
Hopefully my students sightseeing and take the, take
the chance, and answer the bonus question.
In Corbin responded with its shrieks wildly because its feet
change shape to be similar to that of a tree of tree roots
that absorb nutrients from the soil.
All right and let's see what mr. Curtis said, Curtis responded
with, let me tell you. Ah, dishes do not like being
pulled from the ground during the day if you pull them from
the ground. During the day, they scream
bloody murder. They do this because they are
hiding from the Sun. Presumably because because they,
they, they think membrane like skin is sensitive to watch Rays
of the Sun, what the fuck that was supposed to be?
Presumably because they're thin Ramona, because they're thin
membrane like skin battle know about that sensitive.
That is taking some Liberties that's taken some damage.
Hey, that was pretty, that's pretty close.
So I said because they think membrane it's their thin
membrane, but come on, Lee. Messed up to were two very
common easily, spelled words, yes.
But no, you're probably right, I would say that because it's
because they're hiding from the Sun.
So, you're both, right? They will scream very loudly or
shriek or yell or whatever and corben's answer, because it
might hurt their feet which have kind of transforms to better
absorb the soil and curse the answer because they are high.
The sun I would say are acceptable answers.
I also would have accepted, hey we don't mention the whole
hiding from the Sun thing would be a reason you said, it's the
feet thing. So that I said listen, there
isn't a specific answer here from the Pokedex.
All right, I just hypothesize that, it's okay because their
feet. All right, that's fair.
That's also. I also would have accepted that
they're at. They're trying to scare
Predators because we know that they are trying to hide
underground, right? So if they could gets pulled up,
it might think it's a predator and it might seem to kind of
Drive the point. I didn't think of it.
That's good. Sweet.
I would have accepted that again.
No, this is in the Pokedex entries.
So it's all just hypotheses and here say at this point.
But yes, excellent job. Both of you and you do get the
bonus points for that. So, great job.
And actually, you know, what can I just say?
Excellent job this lesson. I think you both did very well
Corbin. You did a great job bringing the
entries. Thank you.
You know you could probably help out a little bit more.
Yeah that's best Curtis. And you want to say anything but
you know, you really didn't read any of them.
Mr. Chris, a shame, I'm sorry. It next time I promise you I
will, I will make sure that I am so ready to read just to wait.
Well, speaking of next time, does anybody know what Pokemon
we're going to talk about next time.
Ooh, Golem kilkee say Golem every single day.
It's not dollar. I never ever said, column is
swear. He's like It's definitely
cherub, you're on the right track that, that's that's
another grass-type Pokémon, most probably, you know, again, get
you guys are intentionally seem like you're intentionally saying
the wrong of a grass-type Evolutions.
Just just to annoy me. So I'm gonna go ahead and say
it. We're learning about Gloom next.
Okay? The evolved form of Oddish.
So, yeah, we can look forward to that.
But, you know, if you students at home, Have any questions for
me? You can ask me by sending me a
Gengar mail. Or Gmail if you're shortening it
down at wo Pokémon at gmail.com you can also find me on the
flying Pokemon themed social network site.
Twitter at w&l Pokémon there as well.
If you think that, you know, if you think that Corbin did a very
good job of reading. The Pokedex entries, this time,
go ahead and go on to Flap will Cast used to be stable iTunes
and give us give it a five star rating.
And say, this is specifically for Corbin's Pokedex readings.
He did a great job. I'm doing it right now.
You did great today Corbin.
Thanks buddy. I do prefer the principal said
that if we get the ten ratings were only at 8:00.
If we get to 10, we get cookies for the whole class.
So please. Yeah, pretty old.
I will make sure to send out cookies.
Yes to everybody who gave us a five star rating.
Let's do it. I can't, I can't do that.
It's like there's no address. All right, and that does it for
today's lesson. So until next time class is
dismissed, Welcome to the world of Pokemon.
Is it part of the Pokey casters Network?
