Hello there and welcome to the world of Pokemon.
My name is Professor Jacob. And joining me today, as he does
always day in and day out, can't seem to shake.
Them is my teaching assistant, mr.
Curtis a load everybody, mr. Curtis of course of course.
Professor, thank you so much. You know, you could never lose
me. I'm trying.
I will, I will always be with you.
He's stuck to me, I just can't stop turning your head that way
and cocking your head and like not breaking eye contact.
When you say that's kind of creepy.
I mean, I just want to, I just want, I just want the professor
know that, like I'm here. I've dedicated my life to the
study of Pokemon under his tutelage.
Please look away from the professor and please blink.
I hate that you're sitting at them.
You're right. You're right.
He hasn't blinked once. A fact, Looking Back.
Now I'm not sure I've ever seen him blink.
If it'd make you feel more comfortable.
I can manage it for you. Yes.
Thank you for blinking mr. Curtis.
Thank you. Curtis for proving that you're
that you're actually human. And gosh, it's not comfortable,
but I'll do it for you. And of course the other person
that you here talking is the wonderful student that we have
here in the classroom, our trainer and training Corbin say
load everybody Corbin that's you know what?
Hi everyone. That's you know that's really I
mean, I see you never call me. Wonderful.
You always say a bunch of new things about me and I'm glad to
have you on my side. I maybe you work with the wrong,
the right side of the bed today, I don't know what it is but I'm
glad that you're glad that you're being really nice to me
today. Professor, I think it's good.
My good class. My bed has no right side.
So only a left-sided bed. How does that?
It's a nice. Crisp it up against the wall.
Gotcha makes total sense. Oh, perfect.
Perfect logic. Thank you, Professor.
All right. Enough Staffing about now.
Let's get to the reason why we're Here where I'm sure you
guys remember. This is a classroom where we
learn about Pokemon. So I guess I have to ask you
guys. Does anybody know what Pokemon
we're talking about? I do.
What's up, guys? How are you doing?
You destroyed my flower. How did you dig up through the
floor? It's cold.
Oh, don't worry. Don't worry about it.
Diglettz are naturally found in this region.
It's Perfectly Natural. Cyril for them to dig and tear
up homes. I just asked for a favor.
What's good? Jake?
It's been for give me a hug. Come on, bring it in hug.
Hi Jo, Jo talk about the copper Rajah in the room.
Who the hell? Yes.
Okay. Students teaching assistant?
This is my colleague from Pokemon University Professor
Palm the my gosh, yes, another professor you can call me Lou.
They still don't don't bother with the formalities.
Unlike Jake over here, I never Professor Palm.
I've never way. Your name is Jake.
No Way. Well, you know, of course you
would, as my student, we call me Professor.
Jacob. Because Jakey.
Yeah, I like that. I like to call them from now on.
I like it. I like it.
That's Professor Palm. Why have you broken into my
classroom? Well, obviously, I like to keep
in touch with some old buddies of mine, we weren't University
together. Why can't I stop by, and say
hello? And second, I keep up with some
of your lessons. I hear a little bit here and
there what you're teaching and you guys have been teaching my
subject and you didn't bring me along, and I got to say, Jake,
my man, I'm a little Bomb faster.
Jacob, I'm a little bump, buddy. I'm a little bummed friend.
You call your boy, you didn't call your boy buddy.
Yeah, that's bad Jake, it's bad. Well, I'm sorry if I may
interject Professor Palm here. Has spent a lot of time in the
Ole Ola region as he was mentioning before his specialty,
is on the regional variants of Pokemon.
So I've been doing my best to teach you but as low as I am to
say it, Professor Palm is the leading experts on this
phenomenon of variance in Pokemon.
So I keep inviting you to come and visit, you know, being the
mrs. We'd love to have you over.
It's a great Blake, come on, you.
Can get a tan. Oh Professor, can we go?
Can we go Professor we go. If you want a field trip to a
lower region, maybe know. We have taken a sabbatical and
do you know what search, you know, what?
Once we start talking about the Pokémon that primarily appear in
the Ole, Ola region, then we can go and take a field trip on over
to that ratio. Yes.
Okay, I need to get away. I don't like Saffron City in the
end, the fucking winter. It's not, it's not fun.
It's called my nipples are always hard.
Not for the reason you might think it's terrible in about in
about 800 week. Well, we'll head on over to the
Aloha region. All right.
That's like two months, right? I'm bad at math.
I will be happy to have you, you know, even though even though
Professor palm and I, you know, kind of see things differently,
like I said, he's the leading expert and having his help in
this lesson would be incredible because I, honestly, I can't
remember if I've said it yet, but the Pokémon we're learning
about today, is saying /, sorry, for saying.
So, I screamed that, after busting through your floor, that
might have I realize. Now, the engines may have
overshadowed the And I apologize for that.
That's fine. We have a team of Machoke and my
chops that, you know, are very handy because believe it or not,
the the classroom does tend to get brutalized on occasion.
Yeah, we need to start teaching a class and like a fucking
cushioned room or something. Yeah.
And like well where there's nice jackets that like, you know,
wrap our hands together, so we're like, always hugging
ourselves. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That I love to sleep in those. They're very comfortable.
Yeah, I mean the spinner acts. They leave me one every night
before I go to bed. So wait, you sleep in a web
cocoon every night? Oh yeah.
We've already discussed this. No need to go into the spinarak
details to do if you're looking to really, if you're looking to
really energize your sleep patterns, we actually use pound
that we can use galv Angela thread for the same thing, gives
you a nice tingly sensation, same principle.
Oh yeah mr. Curtis, have you ever thought
about, you know, you know, utilizing galv, Angela's and
jolt. As you know, they might, they
might give a little of that extra kind of shocked.
You need in your crossbreed here.
A hybrid between spinner racks and yeah, Govan chaleur re Doses
and govern Sheila's. I don't know if that's a good
idea. Might be good idea.
I don't know. I had to learn it.
The best part is when the best part is about Joel.
Ticked, if you really want to just have fun, you can just take
a handful of them and throw them in Snorlax has and see how many
takes to wake it up. I want to play.
It's like a fun game. Oh, it's so much fun.
You should we play? All the time, the alluring it's
a blast, a Jaguar. Didn't like to play up class.
And why don't we go page a key. What do you say?
Let's go. Let's go play Snorlax jolted zap
fun one place. What just for that?
You automatically fail, this week's pop quiz.
I'm just I'm just saying, man and say right now you get asked
from me, but excited, A Team. Jacob, again, just like Holly
too formal relax. So what if he fucks up and
fuxing says all the fucking words, let's let him Take the
quiz like everyone else and then we can say fucked up.
Oh, I know you're still gonna take it, he's just gonna
automatically fail it. That's not fair.
No. Okay, listen, let me, let me see
if I can get things back on track.
We're learning about sandslash today and it's excellent.
That Professor Palms here because Sam /.
Much like Sandshrew has a lowland variant, so hopefully we
can get some, you know, Insight from Professor Palm on that. let
you know, of course I would love to show you a sandslash but I
just, I just don't have one with me unfortunate light, bro.
And dude, don't worry. I got spares.
Hang on. Let me just let me take him out,
right? So what do you want first?
You want your can't ovarian, or you want your low in very and I
like to bring them both along for these sorts of things.
Well, let's let's start at home. Let's bring out a Kanto region
while right, you got it. Go see it.
Yeah. Whoa.
Whoa there's spikes on its back. Yes, honey boys.
Yes, it's kind of its kind of, I don't know, it's kind of
menacing looking but it's also kind of cute.
I can't really, I don't know how I feel about it.
Now if you really want to make sure you understand, if it's
gonna eat you or not, look at the mouth.
You see how narrow that's not. Is that something meant for
eating something a lot. Thinner, lot more narrower,
probably a lot more bug types. It's not going to be going after
you, I mean unless you know, you're way too fat.
Okay. But, you know I hate to Be the
the copper Asia in the room here but those those claws are pretty
intimidating. Their Professor, Paul.
My, you know, I don't know if I want to.
I want to get up in that business.
My man, please Lucas, there's no need for formality.
Unlike Jake over here. Trust me, they are threatening
looking. They are menacing looking but
these animals are some of more or less the peaceful end of the
Pokémon that I've met these organisms.
Tend to survive purely off. Not messing with anything
defending themselves and only attacking when necessary.
Much like Atkins really scary-looking but otherwise
they're mostly harmless. That's true.
I mean both fan / and Sands truce.
Yeah, you can touch of water a time roll.
Okay. I would hug somebody and I'm
kind of kind of scared of this. All right, let's see.
Let's see how the lowland variant differs from the Kanto
region 1. All right, come on.
Frosty your up your. Whoa.
Oh that's oh yeah, that's Frosty piercingly, blue, he's a good
boy. Oh my God, I would not recommend
touching him, he is friendly, I would not, but he is, he's ice
cold, not emotionally literally good one, that's good.
Well, I mean, like, it looks like it's got me the, this
Glacier ugly things about part of it and looks like, it's just
ice on its back. Yeah.
So you might be wondering what on Earth happened between these
two organisms, that make them look so different in science.
We Laughing, what I'm wondering. Yeah.
We have a phrase, called insular gigantism and insular, dwarfism.
So what that means in scientific terms is that if you take an
animal and separate them onto either a literal or a figurative
Island, let's say you had a bunch of rotat has and you
dropped some Encanto, and others into a random Canyon where they
couldn't get out. You are going to eventually get
up. That's it.
That's gruesome. You're going to get em,
eventually. You're going to get differences
and how they evolve and adapt and change to Their ecosystem.
The same happens at a Lola and Galler and all other regions
where you're going to get these different variations to survive
in different ecosystems. It's a wonderful thing to see in
so many different organisms and that's why I love studying it,
because the most important thing to understand about nature is
that it's not strict, it's flowing.
It goes with its own pace and it fits, whatever need it needs to.
It's never going to stay the same.
Yeah, that explains the very classy looking mustache.
Ashes on the low and Ratatat. Ya know, those things are
monsters, I those things are pain in the butt in the Lowell.
I do not like they'll fuck those things.
Look you explained it so well. I mean like I love hearing you
talk. Why can't we get this guy to
teach the class full-time? My right saffron can't pay
enough. Have you seen this dump?
Wow, nothing really has changed since college has a professor
Fang look. All right.
It's true. Stable guy that I knew.
Come on, we have our differences but We love what we do.
You're my brother. You're my bro, you're my bro.
Yeah I mean you guys love what you do but he just makes more
money than you. Uh-huh.
Listen. Yeah but I am I I'm I'm
teaching. I'm teaching the masses.
He might get paid more. But, you know, I have a get the
karma points. Well, that's the thing though.
So your classroom setting love it.
The one student. And this whole town that
actually wants to come and talk to you.
Love the dedication, I have these talks, or I get to have.
So, I actually get a camera, set up and everything.
And I've been able to reach Thousands of people with our
lecture. So that's the only reason I've
been able to make any money that unlike you I like the dedication
for just one single cursing student and I try and reach a
few more people very well. I think it probably is a good
thing. They never really get to, you
know, meet you in person because well I'm sure I'm sure they
might run off at that point. No man, we're cool.
We get to have sweet, we get that sweet conversations, do a
Lola's know I miss these conversations that we always
had. I guess I just love hearing
about your life. This is great.
No, no, don't Jake is Right. Jake is right.
We have these two beautiful Pokemon and you my cus build
friend are going to have to learn about them.
All right, let's let's go ahead and put those Pokémon back into
their Pokéballs okay. Strong, boys.
Learn your lesson. I think it's time.
We really get to the meat of the lesson.
Let's, let's read the Pokedex entry is for the % /.
First one here, Says curls up into a spiny ball when
threatened what the can roll? Well the sandslash, I know, it
doesn't say what it is but you know, that's can't do for you so
it curls up into a spiny bomb when threatened it can roll
while curled up to attack or Escape.
Yeah. So I mean that's very similar to
what Sandshrew did so it's not surprising.
That sandslash can do that as well.
All right, next one here says it is skilled at slashing enemies.
Klaus. If broken, they start to grow
back in a day. Oh yes, it's fascinating.
Oh, I'm sorry. Don't mean to gush but with the
cantos and slashes, do you know what their nails are made out of
Ivory Ivory know. What do you guys think?
What do you Professor? What are you sorry?
Sorry, I you know I hate the perm out a guy to do it.
Try to do can Jake Jake, come on, what is it made out of?
I don't, I don't know. Cartilage, I suppose maybe know.
I don't know. Bone a keratin.
Yes. You are.
You pronounced it poorly? Where you are?
Correct. It is keratin.
Yeah, he does that. Yeah, so keratin is the same
stuff that makes up your Are your fingernails, the beaks of
pidgeys clause? It makes up so many things in
the organisms that are Pokemon, especially the ones with cause
and hair. It's wonderful to see that they
not only have the same as ours, but it's more rigid and able to
grow so much faster. Even their spikes on their back,
are made out of it. What, please remember that?
I always remember that because that's what my elementary school
teacher used to call me Crete and Curtis.
I mean, it was just It was just kind of tearing nickname.
You know, Curtis Curtis the cretan endearing is a word in
the dictionary. You can use it.
Yes. Okay, so let's move on.
Next one here says, is the last one for the Kanto region?
It says, again curls into a ball.
Of course, it's talking about the sandslash, the curls into a
ball, curls into a ball of sharp spikes and rolls into enemies.
It is also a depth. Slashing with its sharp claws.
Okay, let's move on to the Johto region.
In an attempt to hide itself. It will run around at top speed
to kick up blind. A blinding dust storm.
Are you familiar with how fast a sandslash is always finding
things that it says, top speed, people assume something along
the lines of an in Jack's, but then top speed is similar to
that of a wall ring. What will happen is that?
Well, have you ever tried to outrun a wall?
Aaron. Not yet.
I've raced mr. Curtis that's pretty close
though, right? No, no.
This thing would easily flattened, mr.
Curtis in the heart. Be they're still quite quick.
The quick by our standards, but compared to other Pokemon they
aren't the fastest of the bunch even amongst Canto.
There are certain Pokémon like Pikachu that could literally run
circles around this thing also seems like she's kind of slow at
sucks. Yeah but the speed is enough to
kick up a storm so it's still really good defense and that's
running. Let's talk about digging the
next Great Century here says, if it if it Digs at an incredible
Pace it may snap off at spikes and Claws.
They grow back in a day or so I'm sure I'm sure sandslash
could beat a Pikachu, you know, through the dirt.
Yeah, not just by typing but just digging into a hole and
just throwing away and just waiting for it to get bored.
Yeah, true. Now this is interesting.
Adept at climbing trees, it rolls into a spiny ball then
attacks its enemies. He's from above, mmm?
Wait really? Yes behavioral.
Very okay. Okay, so we have the larger, you
have the sense lashes here in canto.
My thoughts is that there are certain smaller ones that have
become adapted climbing trees and waiting to pounce on their
enemies that way. So since last each one of those
versatile creatures even in this Canto wild stuff dude and
they've probably persisted for So long because like, they can
dig, they can live in our ground, they can hang out in
trees and now in the lower other hanging out and and, and ice
caps and stuff. That's crazy.
Man, these guys are resilient. They're tough little buggers.
Why I love them so much, okay, I guess.
No. They're running out Frosty to
you to say that again. Jacob.
Yeah, say that again. Yeah, we know you don't, you
don't fuck with a man's Pokémon? Yeah.
Professor Jacob. Uh-huh.
Yeah. Jake apologize.
No Jake. He's okay.
You know. What?
No more Pokemon in the classroom.
Iíve already have enough to clean up today.
It was too much of a mess the first time.
And of course you do have that giant hole in the in the floor
of the hey that's an entrance for greatness.
Thank you, finally, someone gets it.
I've done that four times this week, you're the only one who
gets it, I guess who, who Who's floor even breaking through,
well, I needed to get groceries the other day.
The missus needed medication, picked up the other day, then I
had to go ahead. Go back to the grocery store
because obviously you forget to get the organ very she asked for
and then finally or some. We just wanted to go to a movie
and so we just pop by well pop did.
And so, every every time you went through the floor, have you
not seen an alone and Dugtrio before there are two fabulous?
Not to use damn pretty damn fabulous.
That's true. We haven't talked about that but
a lowland Dugtrio and diglettz quite fabulous.
Okay. So let's move on to the Hoenn
region faint howling. Hey they always come with
bangers for these. Oh, it always has wonderful
data. It's my second favorite next to
a Lola. Yeah.
Yeah, purchase Wild. Well, I don't like to pick
favorites for Regions. You know, it's all data.
Me and Burt. You're drinking buddies.
You were freaking buddies, what? Yeah, the man can put it away,
the man just puts into it. Like, he puts his family that
he's still putting it away while he makes the the entries.
Because he was, yeah, he makes some wild clay.
This one I'll say same / isn't as wild but sometimes it gets
pretty crazy. Okay, Sam's lashes body is
covered by tough spikes which are hardened sections of its
hide once a year the old spikes fall out to be replaced with new
spikes that grow from beneath the old ones that directly.
Speaking, you're all doing something very similar.
As you said your skin, they just do it all at once.
Well actually you won't believe this but mister Curtis kind of
does it all at once to, it's molting day as we call it, it's
pretty horrible. So can we put mr.
Curtis in a jar to study him, like we can put a bit of nice
container to study. That that sounds excellent.
Oh no, you would have, you would not believe the amount of times.
I've tried to study and mr. Curtis like I'll put him in like
a in a jar of with with holes. And of course, so he can
breathe, I'll put him in a cage. I'll put him in like a hole with
no light but like, and I'll like turn around to grab something.
And they'll turn back and he'll just be out of it.
I wish you hold to the belief that Curtis is not entirely
human but that's just a theory. Have you ever consider just you
know offering him a snack or something sitting him down and
then just like observing him through like a one-sided window?
I mean you don't have to be so brutal about it.
Okay. You know what?
You're right. Hey, but we'll talk about this
after class. You can give me some good
research tips and tactics. He's right here.
That's right. You know, I appreciate the the
focus in the and the In the, you know, might I say attention that
you've been giving me, but it's just, I'm not really accustomed
to that level of detail. You have to say, I'm I should
not be the one here in charge of the classroom.
Please Professor Palm. It should be.
It should be Professor Lucas Palm.
He should be in charge but I mean maybe one does not, there's
no, no, I'm on his ground. The professor here, I'll say
this. Once I know you like it, when I
say it Professor here, my love This thing.
All right, since last this is still a Hoenn region by the way,
stands / can roll up its body as if it were a ball covered with
large spikes in battle. This Pokemon will try to make
the the faux Flinch by jabbing it with its spine then sorry,
spines. Not like, you know, the thing
that's the bones inside of its back, its spines, it tries to
make the photo Flinch, by jabbing it with its spines, it
then leaps at the stun fo to tear wildly with its Sharp
claws. Do the ones in homeowner Fierce.
I like it. Yeah, I feel like here in Kanto
and Johto region. We kind of just like to cast,
like watch them from afar. Whereas Professor Birch over in
the Hoenn region, just just fucking make some fight and just
takes notes that way Birch, give zero fucks the man doesn't even
wear shoes. He does not give a fuck.
Yeah, he's wild wait while he doesn't, he doesn't wear shoes.
I barely were he was like, sandals and socks.
The man does not give a fuck what people Think of him, I
heard it gets attacked a lot and pretty said several injuries.
Like I heard you don't hear the stories about when he attacks
back, that's badass. He's saying I like I gave him
some really nice shoes last Christmas.
He said that he was definitely gonna wear them.
He wears them to like he wears them on Christmas and then he
puts him in the closet goes all the others look dude.
I've been there. I tried getting him like pants.
Not shorts pants man. Literally cut them in front of
me to make sure it's love that. Wow, that's a power move.
Yeah, met the bad. It is the G.
All right we have one more here from the Hoenn region.
It curls up in a ball to protect itself from enemy attacks.
It also curls up to prevent heatstroke during the daytime
when temperatures, rise? Sharply thermoregulation.
Yes got it, excellent stuff. Yeah it's so excited.
I just curled up into a ball. The sound that cool with you if
I bet. He's just what's very
interesting is that when most organisms want Thermal regulate
this spread their bodies out, they try and give as much way
for the heat to leave the body. When you curl up, you're
actually keeping more of that heat inside of you.
So what it seems to be doing is the Keratin.
This keratin scales and spines on its back seem to be absorbing
most of the key while drawing, while the rest of the body,
where the core organs are, are keeping cool.
So, this must mean that this organism has perfectly designed
itself to live in desert, arid regions, but also, Forest
regions and soil region. This thing gets around.
There's another Pokemon of the Lola, something called a q
cannon that can do something very similar where it draws in
heat and uses it as an attack. But this one seems to use it
only entirely to keep itself safe.
So maybe who knows in a few thousand or million years, we
might have a fire rounds type of sandslash here in canto, never
know. That'd be systematic.
Hopefully we'll be there to research and study it.
Oh maybe your assistant, Well, I'm your assistant might be, I
don't know what he is. He is the only thing that is
unsettled me in years, you know. I'm liking the sound of these
cretins spines. They're kind of acting like, you
know, like a radiator radiator, mr.
Curtis. No, you're not getting cosmetic
surgery on your spy name. Hmm.
No, no, no, I was, I was thinking about, you know,
possible additions to my breed of super spin around.
Oh Christ. No, what do you use your
subjects? We don't get it.
It's hard to get any more ideas, please.
So that does it for the Hoenn region.
Let's go ahead and move on to the center region.
There's only one Pokédex entry here but that's fine.
It says it curls up and then rolls into foes with its back.
Its sharp spines inflict severe damage.
It's interesting though because in the Hoenn region, they said
that they kind of really only use their spines as kind of
like, you know, a stunning mechanism, right?
Ham but here it seems to say that, like it's, that's the
thing that does you, right? It's the sharp spines that
inflicts severe damage. Yeah.
Okay. So I believe that, that does it
for the center region. I don't really have too much new
going on there. Of course, you Nova nothing new
Kalos again. Nothing new they honestly
Professor Palm. I don't know what it is about
those regions, but they rarely seem to bring anything new to
the table. Lizzie Aye-aye.
Jake. I agree with you 100%.
I feel like, I feel like cows is always obsessed with
appearances. And then we have the Anova
region which is all focused on industry.
I feel like they're really skipping on the proper research
and funding to the scientific Endeavors.
I really feel like they could be doing a lot more although I will
stay if there's two regions to go and have a party, those two
reasons are on the top of my list to go to.
Oh ho yeah very good. Oh yeah, I will write this.
Yeah. If you want to just like go,
like, head to know. But head to the big cities of
Anova, trust me, you will have a blast.
It is great. Hell yeah, I can't wait to go
when I'm old enough, I'm only 10.
Yeah, I recall, I think I believe you.
And I did go have a quote unquote party in the end they,
you know, her region once. If I recall correctly though, I
did get drunk and I woke up on the streets.
Did you leave me there? I did not leave you the
Gardevoir that took you out of that party left you it's a
completely different thing. I didn't leave you.
She walked out with you. You said I'm going to have a
great time. I didn't see you the rest of the
night until you know. Why that Jakey boy, Professor
here has committed. No, be be.
Inter species relations. I have never once hit.
On been attracted to or made it with a bar.
You washing no bloodshot, no one has stated this out loud because
we cannot confirm nor deny that it happened.
I will say that I was wrestling. A Feraligatr in the corner with
a crowd. It was great.
I was distracted. I don't know what happened to
you after I saw you walk out with her or him.
I think I need to go to get a plane ticket to Unova and I
think I need to talk to To a Gardevoir.
I need the name and the location of that restaurant.
Please. No it was the time he came back
really angry but like when he was drunk, like when he was
like, really, really drunk you with the funniest I've ever seen
him. I've never seen someone just
punch a cop. I've never worked with just do
it punch you. Punched An Officer Jenny.
Wow, I never I listen, this must have been somebody else that he
was where we just take out my phone here yet.
Yo, take a look at the There's, there it goes.
Look at, look at the pictures, there's his fist, and there's
the Jenny catching it and then pushing him to the ground.
You got actual pictures. Okay.
I do remember getting pushed to the ground.
That was pretty rough. You sound like you were a lot of
fun. Back in the day I'd like to see
you get drunk and be that Professor for class again maybe
these classes would be a bit but yeah me too.
I agree with you professionalism.
Listen blurting about Pokémon as a professional Endeavor and we
need to have that. We need to understand that
severity when we're here in the classroom, so I would appreciate
it. It.
It's a Verity but not sobriety. Get the drinks, boys, come on.
Let's see it as a passer. Yes.
All Hail to the proper formality of the work we do.
Cheers bra. Yeah, I don't really don't have
a drink. I don't know.
I got it. I got it.
Classroom policy, but you mr. Curtis great.
I wanna was the best class ever of the of the rule packet.
You signed. When you join the class, shut
up. This is the best class ever, mr.
Jacob Professor. Jacob never brings a snacks
because they, I mean there is no eating in the classroom.
You know, well, nervously. Now experiments.
All right. All right everybody.
Everybody calm down Keys need to regain control of my classroom.
Let's move on to I would say the most boring and gross region.
The Lola Rae. You shut your miserable untanned
mouth. Shut the fuck up.
Oh my God. That's my to see his reaction.
I'll be honest. Let's go ahead and read the
Aloha. A little in region pokedex
entries here. Although they are sharp.
It's claws and spikes often break off.
They grow back. The next day.
So it's not bothered by the temporary loss.
Mhm, she doesn't need to. That means you can attack a lot
more frequently or defendants up more frequently without having
to worry about damaging yourself.
Think about the last time you threw a punch at that cop, you
have to remember that your fist could actually break and it
wouldn't repair for a few weeks. The sandslash wouldn't have had
that problem. All right, thanks one here, says
it uses its claws to climb trees and then curls its body into a
spiny ball ready to drop onto any Pray that appears that we
already had we don't talk about what they eat as much either.
Most of these decks as we talk about them being hunted but
remember they are still going to be Predators or not going to be
eating on grass these things again no looking purely at the
mouth are probably going to eat anything that they find.
That is going to be narrow and skinny enough.
My money is on caterpie's in the Kanto region or any other small
bugs grub ins. If you don't they can feel it.
All the grub worms that live and how you know we're alaskans you
can slip up Cans like spaghetti. I don't know.
That's the mouth is designed. If you look at the shape of the
skull, no mouth is designed for small one or two bites.
And Ekans is you have to slurp that thing out.
It takes a while. It takes a very specific group
of Pokemon to just hunt down in that, I can think of Pidgeot or
something, maybe a nice. Spinarak, maybe can do a nice
spin Iraq. So it's better.
I could damage on all of these Pokemon.
They are a horrifying mess that I love very much.
Thank you. Yes, yes.
Spinarak, an REO Deuce purebred. Red, team grows, even even
larger now actually. Now it took to go back to
something that you said a little while ago, their Professor
Pamyu. I know you haven't specifically
read the Pokedex entry is for all the Pokemon like I have.
You know, at least not recently. You'd be surprised at how many
of them actually do, mention a Pokémon's diet.
We learned. In fact, it mentions that
Sandshrew does eat bug Pokemon. So I would not be surprised.
I think you are definitely correct, and that's and /
continues on that. Diet of eating bug Pokemon.
But, yeah, it talks about, you know, a lot of things at the
Pokemon eat, like, I'll both of the bird Pokemon that we have
over here in the Kanto region that we've talked about so far,
Pidgey and Spiro. They eat both Pokémon as well,
Raichu, of course, eat pancakes. Of course.
Mmm. Yeah.
I want to say, I want to apologize for that pokedex
entry. I didn't write it but it's
pretty. It's sounds like I wrote it but
I didn't write that one. That one is one of those, right?
I had to take a shot of like really, really, this is the best
we're gonna do for our region for this Surfer boy.
Okay, let's cut it Loose to man. You got some water.
We got it. Loose it's hot out here.
You gotta relax. Yeah, is it true?
No, I have to ask. Is it true?
Is that another name for Raichu is?
In fact Hodad's? Honestly, it is.
But only at the tourist shops to get you guys to buy more merch.
That's a good marketing tactic. I want a Barely There, the hotel
to the Lola and real. Lola.
And I just got accepted to being part of rila Lola after like,
two years, believe me it's a hard sell for the locals.
They just get some Outsiders some mainlanders to actually,
you know, be part of the stuff. That was my real honor.
Huh, that's awesome. Interesting.
Yeah, well maybe, maybe when we come, we come around and 800
weeks or so, you can, you can show us what real Lola is like.
Oh yeah, it would be my pleasure.
Okay, moving on, with the Aloha region pokedex entries, I
believe that there's Two more here.
It says next one says it's claws and horns.
Often break off. Interesting.
That's horns. I wouldn't, I wouldn't really
call those horns, but okay. Yeah, it's claws and horns,
often break off the broken Claws and horns.
Again uses horns can be used to carve plows for tilling Farm
Fields. Hmm, interesting?
See, this is what I love about living in India, low their
region. A lot of times the Aloha Didn't
we tend to tell people what we do with these Pokemon and how
they help outside of fighting and outside of combat?
The we can show how working with Pokemon and just using parts of
they're not using anymore can make our lives better.
We don't always have to use them for fighting or showing off.
We can use them to help make our lives better.
That's a good point. C'Mon.
Oh, c'mon are great, for living with and working with and
worshiping. And you know, well you've been
worshipping at the Volcarona Shrine, haven't you?
No stop. I was talking about our Loving
Lady of the night, the queen ariados, ah, Lady of the night,
the lady of the night. What?
Yeah. Yes.
You understand that ariados is spit, right?
You know, this, that they spent that's all.
Yes. Know, I have quite a collection
of them at home. I think you get it.
Make sure you remember that they.
You spit so watch both ends on them.
Our Lady Queen of the Night, the queen of the area, doses, the
first time, Ever hired heard you call them that.
But whatever, you know, she's not the object of many of us who
worship the spin around us, who's us is, this is your
fucking assistance, group of the world United, whatever it's
called, is it just the call to worship area doses?
I feel like it is honestly, dude, just make sure you look
for any of them with these little spinarak pins on their
shirts. Like, that's usually, like,
they're, they're pretty obvious, like, they're there.
Scattered those. Oh no.
The the inter-regional association of assistance of
professionalism is, is less of a cult to worship a dark God, and
more of a secret society that that aims to help and help guide
the world's into the direction that it needs to be moving.
So those sound like the same thing, they'll be on a new world
order something. It's I'm settling but I like his
energy. You know what?
Listen I'm here to talk about Pokedex entries.
Not to you know, question whether or not my assistant is a
part of a massive worldwide called.
So I'm gonna go ahead and read this next one.
No I think I'm looking at now and this one definitely has your
kind of vibe to it Professor Palm.
It says thanks to its thick claws.
It's Good at climbing, what there are same slide.
Okay, there are plenty of sandslash that Park themselves
and trees go right to sleep. I'm sorry, did it's a park?
Well, yeah, I mean figuratively Mark themselves.
Departing oneself to know that mean, they still need to park
themselves. Parker Parker button that seed
is one of my favorite things to say, to the Wonder choose
assistance, I have and I have to yell at them.
Wow, you got multiple? Damn, that's impressive.
Yeah. I got like, Or four of them.
One at a time, they take ship while to get the caishen days.
That's great. So, you've assistance that have
benefits and you have multiple. Oh wow.
Hey mr. Curtis, what do you get?
I mean I would never even if I was offered vacation, I would
never take it another day that I don't want to be here and
assisting the professor, you know, know and and Health Care
is not needed. I found that I'm very Hardy and
it's true. It's like a mud stay.
Love this guy. Yeah.
You got yourself a keeper in that I wouldn't want to keep him
purified and appear fighting diluted, you know, very light
dosage of Venom from a spinarak goes a long way in terms of an
analgesic and antiseptic. So solve most of the problems I
have on the right side effects of ariados poison.
No blinking. No, not once now.
Yeah. I mean, when it comes to, when
it comes to bring my teaching assistant, let's be honest.
Of the only benefit that you really need right?
Of course Professor terrible benefit, but yeah, whatever.
All right, we'll choose to stay silent for once.
Perfect, that, that allows me to read, the gal, our region
pokedex entries. The gal are says, 'god region,
says the dryer. The area sandslash lives in the
harder and smoother. The Pokemon spikes, feel when
touched are you all familiar with the erosion.
So obviously from the dryer and more desert area, it's only
going to get more eroded by sandstorms and other harsh
elements to make them nice and smoothed out.
I wonder if the same is true of Onyx is all.
I got to get the duct Rios to go help me find one right now with
no glass. Yeah, you gotta stay later.
Later, comes later. Well, maybe that makes maybe
erosion causing it to be more smooth.
Makes this an / a lot faster. Whoo, not see.
I like this kid's head. I'm like, see its head.
Yeah, see, he gets it. He understands what goes on.
I mean, I'll be honest is, this is probably the first insightful
thing Corbin here as a really ever.
Hey, that's not true. I say things all the time, he
just he's choosing. Yes.
Yo mean, he's, you say things all the time.
Insightful. Faithful.
It takes a certain level of intelligence to get it.
And I tell you what, Professor, Lucas Palm, he gets it, man.
He gets. All right.
Let me just read the last pokedex entry.
Here it climbs trees by hooking on with its sharp claws
sandslash shares. The berries that Others dropping
them down to Sandshrew, waiting below the tree, that's what
parenting or social Gathering, or social grouping Behavior,
which of the two. So, for most pokemon, I wouldn't
necessarily call an evolved form the parents.
Yes, they are generally, but more old, the older ones, but
they aren't necessarily the parents, right?
You can you can be a Sandshrew and have the adult offspring of
course, of course. Yeah.
So I wouldn't necessarily call it parental.
I think it's just, you know, this Pokemon has evolved.
It has more skills, it stronger. So I think it's more of a social
aspect, right? I believe this could also be
connected to him. So this could be connected to
how the Pokemon helps provide its own species to survive.
Think about it. When order to evolve a Pokemon
needs energy, one of the basic forms of energy is food.
This sandslash is either on purpose or accidentally helping
to grow more sand slashes. By making sure the statues get
fed long enough to survive. This is Fascinating stuff man, I
love the gallery region. Wow, that's crazy.
All right, so as we always do, we have some unique Pokedex
entries here because now I don't know if you know this.
I know this professor Palm but there are some Pokedex has that
seem to have a mind of their own and they have completely
different entries from the regional entries that we have.
Oh, that's right. You guys don't have the road and
X's here yet. Sorry now we got the road X's.
They literally, they literally have Well, no, we choose not to
use Rotom dex's. He's keeping us in the past
Professor Palm. Can you believe it?
I can actually, I can this man tried to make me read a book
once, ha ha. It was a textbook for our class
that we're finding version ready to go.
Why did you bring me up? Fuck.
Yeah, save the trees, idiot. Let me write that down on my
stencil here. Hold on.
Do that, do that? Alright, so the first unique
pokedex entry comes to us from the young man.
Ash, Ash has Pokedex. This Pokédex says sandslash the
mouse Pokémon and the evolved form of Sandshrew.
It attacks opponents with the quills on its back.
All right, we have one more unique pokedex entry.
Here. It's comes to us from dawn.
Dawn's Pokédex. It says, sandslash the mouse
Pokemon when it runs at full speed, it sends up.
Thick cloud of sand in order to hide itself.
Yeah. So that's similar to one of the
ones from the other regions. We've read.
Yeah, thank you, defense. Yeah.
Okay. That does it for the comments
and / or the, or I suppose the Kanto region sandslash, pokedex
entries. But, of course, we have to talk
about the Olin variant of such a good boy.
My good boy Professor. Jacob, please break that down
for us. Well, no lie, no.
No, let the experts handle it. Let the man who knows his shit
handle this professor as I'm kiss, please Corbin.
Yeah, thank you. Thank you very much.
I will take it from here. Jake, trust me.
This is why I dug through your floor.
A second that's fine. You know what?
I was going to ask you to read them anyways, please be my
guest. All right so let us start with
the alone and region where they are.
Originally found leading a volcanic.
Eruption it settles on Snowy Mountains, as it races through
the Feels it sends up a spray of snow.
So this tells you quite a bit about how these organisms came
about and why they evolved to look the way that they do, these
organisms needed to find a place where they work going to get
toast to a crisp now. Ground-types, they can hold
their own against fire ties, but you can't hold your own against
lava. So they probably have to run.
You have to run to the snowiest part of the mountains of lowly,
you can too. There aren't too many snowy
places there, but while they live there, they were able to
adapt and use their body. That is so adapted for living in
the sand. To now work to living on the ice
and snow that does seem like a pretty major change.
Right? Major change in climate.
Why would they go from dry? Arid Regions near volcanoes to
the coldest Mountaintop so they could find?
But wouldn't they like feel more at home and like the forests or
maybe the beaches of a Lola? Think of it this way.
If you are on this mountainous volcanic rock and you can't.
Wait wait. Let me, let me close my eyes.
Let me close on. Let me get there.
Let me get there on this violent exploding Rock and the lava is
just coming on down and you still survive odd.
Oh no, it's coming at me. It's not real.
It's not real your survives. Do you survive?
We really think about this way. You, are you now, just saw all
this lava, come down and porch everything in your way.
If you try going back to the forest, there's a chance.
You can happen again. So, where's the one place the
volcano? No, is possibly not going to
explode. You look around, you see,
there's some mountains that are untouched, they're blue and
weird, and white and color, you've never seen that before,
but it works out. A lot of people don't realize
that this isn't a one-day chained over time.
The sandslash is probably moved more and more and more and more
up the mountain. In order to find places to
survive, they probably still have to come down for food or
some stores when there's stars but otherwise I think this
organism really is Just slowly moving its way up to a place
where it's less likely to get torched.
So On To The Next Century, we have another one, this Pokemon
steel spikes are she's in ice stabs from these spikes can
cause deep wounds and severe frostbite as well.
Wow! Now you see why they don't have
any Predators. Very few of them are stupid
enough to try, huh? I mean I don't want to try the
regular sandslash anyway but holy shit.
It's not worth frostbite Jesus. No, it's back again.
It's a, it's an insult to injury or injury on to death as I
prefer to call it. If you are, have you ever
experienced something close to frostbite any of you?
I stuck my head in the freezer once hurt.
I'm cool. And imagine that but the freezer
went into, you know. Yeah.
The freezer. Scabs you.
So now not only are you wounded? But now the frostbite is kicking
in. So the wound isn't going to have
time to properly heal. You're probably going to lose
that hand. Can you him, who feel, although
we don't mess around. What are the things you'll see
on many islands. In many isolated areas is that
certain organisms can turn out to be much more terrifying than
their originally were before coming there sandslash in canto
is cool, but it's not, I'm going to freeze your wounds.
Cool, I didn't expect our, I didn't know that they had steel
spikes underneath that ice. I mean, to me, when he was in
the classroom, is just look like it was ice and icicles that were
sticking out of his back. Back know despite what they look
like they are also part steel as well.
They have a large buildup of iron in their diet apparently
and it seems to get them to get a lot stronger in the physical
attack Department, I suppose. So yeah now we do have a few
more from our lovely region so it runs across snow-covered
Plains at high speeds it developed thick, sharp claws to
plow through the snow. So somehow it learned by
adapting to living in the silly areas.
When it Calling it gets faster. That's crazy.
So, it's a nice. Lovely, snowy day, what's that?
Coming down the mountain? Oh my God.
That's a, it's a fucking a lowland sin /.
It's crazy. It's crazy.
So you don't even need to shovel your own snow and your yard you
can just fucking you just use one of these guys.
I don't know, think of it this way.
They like playing in the snow, they have very little reason to
get rid of it. That's true.
That's has a good point. They do more, just like move it
around than really clear it I suppose.
But you know, you can train Pokemon to do really pretty much
anything. I'm sure I'm sure you could
train it to clear your snow. Oh no, this one.
This last one provides a lot of explanation.
Hang on I have to get my voice for a long long time ago.
It lived in the desert with its sharp claws fully extended, it
can climb right up an iceberg without slipping.
Well now did you catch that word?
There was one word that it said that in that deck as your cash.
Iceberg, Iceberg. That's one word to keep an eye
on Hood. Another one.
Yeah, slipping extended may be there, that's it extended these
claws. Are retractable?
That's crazy. That is crazy.
Only the alone, one? Apparently.
That's kind of what this accessory is.
Suggesting that a lowland sandslash has claws are
retractable. Watch this.
Extending that doesn't mean necessarily.
It's like a nub and then it just goes fishing.
Like a my calf is also good. Maybe it's probably not going to
come all the way out or all the way back in but there might be a
certain amount of give where it actually can go a little bit in
and a little bit out in order to make walking around a little bit
more comfortable. True, true.
I guess maybe if it doesn't want to if it doesn't want to like
stick to the I so if it wants to slide around it.
Also if you point out have we read anything about its claws
breaking and growing back? Not with the ice one.
Know I think the problem Me what happened as it evolved.
They gave up the ability to regrowth clause in favor of just
super strong. Sturdier ones with more
abilities of their own fascinating.
That's craft as fast as wild. Yeah, there is, they were able
to bring one over to your guys's end of the ocean and they were
able to come up with a DEX entry for it.
Let's see here. The can't overlap.
Yes, this senseless is formed after identification.
This is sand splashes form after adaptation to a frigid and
environment the cold air mitad by its body sharpens.
It's icy cloth. As I see spikes.
That's cool. I mean, do you know why?
I keep it a lowland sandslash with me at all times.
Pray. See it?
Yes, you like got it? It's AC and I like how it looks
like people literally gives off icy cold air.
Not only does that make it tougher, but what you're living
on an island beach, having a living air conditioning system
is really nice. It considering things.
Like vanilla which is one of my favorite ice types can literally
start up user. I'd rather have the one that
just gives off a little cold air just just a taste of it.
Wait, wouldn't the lowland sandslash melt in the warmer
parts of a Lola? Why would it melt?
It's also part steel. Remember, it's not made of solid
ice. It's adapted to living in the
ice could point. I learned so much with you,
Professor. Luca is this has been so
exciting. I'm just here to help.
I'm here, to help good friend teaches students will Aunt and
the weirdo in the corner. All right.
Well yeah, you think about where we're all students, right?
And he's not my only student, right?
He's the only student that's here in with us.
I have. What was the, what was the last
number that we had mr. Kersey was in the thousands
maybe. Yeah.
Of course, thousands have signed up, but we only have a few
listeners. Well, no, listen.
It's all about. It's all about getting that
money, right? But they did finally, we agreed
favor. I do have some from the
galleries. Because they were able to
import. Those got imported into the
region. Somehow no spinner acts though.
Yeah none of those skilled skilled Fighters that you love
so much. I love them too but they are
still. Filthy is not an insult.
It's a fact. It's well they are gross, I
didn't know. I said filthy not gross.
Gross is an insult filthy as a fact.
What how is how is gross less of a scientific term than filthy,
well like mr. Curtis is filthy.
He smells everyday in class professor.
Sir, you're grossed for trying to get it on with a guard of
War. That's the difference that never
happened. That never happens.
No, there's no evidence of that. There's no evidence that it
didn't happen. There's no evidence that it
happened. However, as scientists you must
always remember. You cannot prove a negative.
So we have to prove that he did it.
We cannot prove that he did not do it.
Thank you, go ahead, we read us the the gala.
Yes, yes, I'm sorry. Alright, so in Galler it uses
its large hooked claws to cut up.
After the deep snow as it runs on Snowy Mountains, this Sunset
is faster than any other Pokémon, and I have to stop
right there. Wow, I have to stop.
There are some really, really, really fast Pokemon, especially
in Galler. Have you ever seen a drag up
hope? Go at full speed?
Yeah, yeah, pretty fast. I think if I may, if I may
Professor Palm, I think it's talking about specifically
running Through snow in the mountains.
I see. I see if you took if you took a
dragon ball and put it if you made it walk around on its feet.
Yeah, I think a sandslash is going to outrun it.
Yeah, I believe that's what there's because there's
otherwise it would cause you're a lot of unbelievable Feats
because listen to this is something that we've talked
about before a Pidgeot can actually fly at Mach 2.
So if a sandslash I could run faster and that in the snow,
that would be horrifying on to the last text entry.
And this one. I feel that I'll explain
afterwards. Many people climb Snowy
Mountains, hoping to see the, I see spikes of this Pokemon
glistening in the light of the dawn.
It's poetic. That's a, no.
I had some feelings on this and it involves a Lola and places
like it, we like having visitors, we like, appreciating
visitors. However, when chew many people
start climbing up the mountains, they start breaking things, they
start disturbing the ecosystem and that's one of the few things
that gets me. Riled up.
That gets me to act up. I don't like it when people
break my nature. All right.
Some of them, it's okay. I know.
I know it's frustrating. It's okay.
You're just like, maybe we don't get me wrong.
It is beautiful. But check this out.
I have it. Let me just let me send you an
email real quick. Here's a video of it glistening
in the light of dawn, now, they don't have to climb up the
mountain. Please.
Please, please keep. Them off the mountain,
especially during what's called our peak season.
We get enough people going. The description is here says
have to forward it to 10 friends.
Do you guys know 10 people at all?
I mean, not just ignore that, that's for my class, that's how
I get it to spread out. Okay, that's so smart.
How has the doing that? But man, if you if you hate
things that vest the ecosystem, you were gonna.
You're just gonna despise these spinner acts that mr.
Curtis is cooking up. They growing, oh, whatever
happens to them, will happen to them, I don't believe in
pre-emptive strikes. But if anything threatens, the
ecosystem, I'm coming for it and I will burn it.
Well, we haven't seen the Caterpie in about six weeks here
in the saffron area. So well that's no good.
I like Kat if he's the great just you know keep keep out of
the forest around my house. That's all I have to do.
All right, note to self remove Forest around his house.
All right. Thank you so much for faster,
pop. For just one.
Pair of the lowland pokedex entry.
Is there for me. Yeah, it is a pleasure and a
privilege. Yes.
Okay so I do have, I'm going to read this.
It's a quick. It's a quick uncredited,
unsourced article and now Professor Fang I like to read
these because I want to teach my students you know, to have a
critical eye. You know, we read the Pokedex
entries have been tried and true.
They've been research, they have been peer-reviewed so we know
that they are 100% true. So with these are yeah, yeah.
Gotta come on Professor, let's get on with it.
I just want to say it's important for them to use a
critical eye and determine for themselves, what they believe is
true. And what's false given the
information that they know is true.
So I'm going to go ahead and start reading.
This sandslash is a bipedal ground-dwelling Pokémon although
a Sands last is usually bipedal I can run on all fours.
Most of its Underside is light yellow with a white underbelly.
It has a narrow muzzle, almond-shaped blue eyes and a
thick tail. Its Is mostly covered in sharp
Brown, quills, formed from it's tough, dry hide.
It has two large claws on its paws and feet these claws.
Are its Primary Weapons and are used for slashing but but can
also be used for burrowing. Its claws and spikes, can both
break off and are shed regularly, but grow back.
Quickly sandslash is broken parts, can be used as carving
plows, for tilling Farm Fields. Thank you, Allah a region.
Very, very engine. You're welcome.
The claws can become smoother. If it lives in drier areas, it
can curl into a large ball which allows it to roll to attack or
Escape protect itself from heat stroke and guard.
Its belly sandslash is also Adept at climbing trees and is
prone to Ambush enemies from above.
It also, claims be sorry. Also climbs trees to / berries
to feed Sandshrew. Waiting below, sandslash can
mostly be found in desert. And Sam / also live in trees.
While sleeping, wait lives in trees while sleeping for the
night. I think it goes on to talk about
the allowance and Slash and the Lola region.
A sandslash has an icy blue hide and quills.
Covered in ice, these quills stands taller than a regular
sandslash has quills and resemble icicles.
This Pokemon uses its hide for camouflage in the snow while
leaving only its spines exposed, unlike its Cantona invariance.
Thick hide and I see spines completely prevent a low-end
sandslash from curling up into a ball, its body and its cold air,
which is sharpens. Its quills.
It's for pars are larger than its counterpart and it's claws
are longer thinner and hooked at the tips formerly used for
climbing trees. They now allow it to scale
icebergs despite the weight of its ice-covered body.
A lowland sandslash is able to move swiftly by carving a path
in the snow is Klaus. It can move faster than any On
Wellness while in Snowy Mountains, this Pokemon tends to
live in the deeper parts of snowy mountains, where climbing
is forbidden. However, the sprays of stoic
kicks up, our popular shots from photographers, see you see, it's
Batman. And then it goes on to talk
about how they also like to see the.
I see, I see sparkles during the light of dawn.
It uses that exact phrasing, that the last pokedex entry that
we read did, which is kind of weird.
I did find the introduction of camouflage, interesting, I like
that, they, I brought that for every load like oh, Campbell, it
can't roll and run as well. But as long as it's in the snow,
it can get away from any so stay in the snow and you'll be fine.
Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's interesting.
I mean, I suppose that I mean, it doesn't say that in the
Pokédex is but, you know, we could probably use, we can
probably infer that. That is very likely true.
Okay. All right.
So Professor fa mi, of course, I don't know if you really know
what goes on in my classroom, but I like to end each lesson
with a pop quiz. To see, you know what, my
students have learned. Oh, can I help?
Can I have a few questions? They're easy, I promise your
easy but informative. Yeah, perfect.
What a mask? I mean, let's be honest here.
These these students really only could take are easy questions.
There are no bad students only bad teachers.
Yeah, that's trust me. That's true.
Except for Lee met, these three searching.
No, Professor. Jacob is a great teacher.
I mean, I don't know. Is he though?
I mean sometimes, I mean, have you ever tried to teach Corbin?
Yeah, I'm doing it now. I know that I do a good job if I
tried I know it. Well, what did try?
Damn it. Maybe I will next, maybe I will
next class next week. You let me teach it.
All right? No, no, all right, all right.
So go ahead and get out your Rotom laptops.
Put away any kind of Pokedex has that you might have met.
Bring out some pens, some pencils, I calculator.
I don't maybe we have to do some math.
I don't know a protractor, probably would be good.
Also, make sure to get out your your like little blinders to
make sure that you know, neither You re you are cheating on, eat
off of each other but don't forget to pull out your.
Don't forget to pull out a Sextant.
You're going to need to look at the stars for this quiz.
Oh hell yeah. Yeah.
Okay everybody's ready. I will read the first question.
Question number one, last week, we learned that Sandshrew prefer
to hunt bug Pokemon. From inside holes they dig in
the sand. Where does sandslash prefer to
wait for its prey? We have the answers here I'll go
ahead and read them Corbin responded with sandslash prefer
to wait for its prey in the trees and mr.
Curtis responded with sandslash. Does like to climb way up in the
trees and attack its prey From above.
She's crying. True.
That is correct. You guys are both correct.
Full marks for both of you Professor Pom-Pom.
If you would like to administer the next question, of course,
hmm. What is the weight difference
between a sandslash from Kanto and ass and /summer Lola?
Yes. Very easy.
Of course, thank you for being the easy questions.
What what now? And of course I mean you guys
know the density of ice, right? And so you can kind of just
Water right, water ice and the ice to steal ratio of the spikes
on the back of the lowland Century.
This is so basic. Basic basic, you know, first day
class, not right, right. Of course.
We definitely talk about this first day of class, okay?
So Corbin your answer was thirteen point, six kilograms,
whoo. Very precise.
Very nice. Let's see what else?
What was, what was yours? Okay.
So I'm sorry, My assistant little weirdo friend here, a
saint /. Oo, Le are six point, five
Stones heavier on average than a Cantonese and sandslash is this
the answer you want to go with? I never take back an answer.
This is so this is so the one and only yes well unfortunately
you're both wrong. I don't use Stones as a
measurement. The difference is actually 25.5
kg, that is a lot. The Olin sense lies is
particularly heavier than a cantos and slashed by by a lot.
All right, let me go ahead and read my next question.
So question number three, a lowland sandslash have I see
spikes which? Of course we talked about
before. What keeps those spikes?
Nice and sharp. All right, so of course when
responding to the question of what keeps a lowland sandslash
has spikes, nice and sharp. He said, the cold are emitted
from its body and mr. Curtis responded with that
Frosty, a low low, low low, no lololo and wrong Miss alone
though. An sandslash, he said Cecil and
sandslash, right? So I'll give him that that
Frosty. Hello loen.
Sandslash bikes. Do get extra sharp from the
frosty cold air that emits freely from its cold body.
Yes. So yes, it Is the cold air that
is emitted from its body as both correct.
Alright. Professor pom, let's see what
you got. Final question or do we got one
more after this? This would be the last question.
Okay so I have to make it good. Yes make it good.
Make it good, right? Yeah, using your best.
Guesstimate your best stock. What do you believe are the
migratory patterns of Anna lolan sandslash?
Hmm, another easy one. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for For being generous because I like, listen,
I know you're an expert on these matters.
You can you can you can really conjure up some pretty gruesome
ones and I've seen them. They're, they're brutal.
But this one. No problem.
All right. Now we have both R and let us
see what we have. So I will start with you mr.
Corben, let's see. Hmm.
Please just Corbin. No, no mr.
I like mr. Thank you.
I deserve some respect around here.
Windsor hangs out in the mountains spring and fall,
forests summer, Sandy Rock. Areas and beaches.
Now, let's see what our creepy little psychopath is, come up
with. That's that's Curtis.
Okay, I'll lowly in st. /Do like to migrate from Frosty
tops of mountains, to more temperate climates to forage for
Taste foods and then two more arid environments to smooth down
its body ship surface, interesting.
So, this is what you both have assessment from.
So let's let's think about this from the lowland.
Pokemon suspected. What is its weakness?
Its weakness is. I mean nothing.
Let's be honest. There's a lot.
There's a lot of weakness and May Fire.
Let me find that says fire fire fire.
Hence fighting a party boy. Yeah.
Fighting punches. Yeah, there's some pretty neck.
There's a crow Brawlers that live on the beaches.
So going down in the summertime where its most prevalent and
would get the snot kicked out of it.
Almost thinking regular saying shrews to, it wasn't thinking
just a little one. Okay, I see that.
Oh no, I understand that concept.
So, for the alone and Slants, hen / would like to migrate to
the frosty, top to the mountains, to more temperate
climates to forage. Great work on that one.
So for what I think, would happen what I believe for my
studies, it was that it would as the land was starting to freeze
over for the winter, that's when Sam /, would come down because
then most of the Pokemon have mitigated to other areas to hide
because they can't stand the harsh winter since last hand.
What better time to forge? In.
And everything's asleep or gone mr.
It's good point. Hmm.
But obviously, there's the trade-off is that there isn't as
much to forage, but there's less competition.
So Professor bomb. Would you would you say they got
this question? Correct.
How should I mark this in my grade book?
Honestly, give them half points because there's definitely some
things that I don't feel it. But these their shows effort and
promising these answers, I respect that and I like seeing
where they're going from so give him half points.
All right. Thank you.
They did some good stuff here.
Yeah, it's not all about failure and Pat I see where my errors
were and I will correct them from now on.
You're right. Professor Palm.
This it's all about failures and passes.
Although they did get 75%, both of them.
So that is actually a failure in my class.
So this was a fail for ah, fuck, Jake.
Jake, you used to be cool. Okay, you never used to be cool
but come on, Jake. Jake.
You're a hard worker hard worker?
Yes the studio. Yes, yes horrible, yes, cool,
no. Yes, he's not your rice.
The only thing that would make me feel better is if I got to
keep one of the Pokemon from class, I've never been able to
do that in the professor. Jacob has always said, no, I
would love to keep Frosty. Okay, I cannot give you Frosty.
He's my boy. However, I can't give you hang
on. Let me go down.
I'm gonna jump in the hole real quick.
I'll be right back. Okay, I dropped it.
No. What is it?
So carbon since you're worthless.
I mean, amazingly. It's to professor.
Gave you a failing grade. I feel like you should get these
bonus points. This is Anna lowland Sandshrew
egg. Yes fuck yeah.
Aha, I'm 90 not. Now the thing is, I'm not going
to just give you a Pokemon because that's just seems like
cheating. I'm not some old man and hang
out 10, charmander's, two ten-year-olds.
I want to make sure that we can actually grow.
Go with it. I want to make sure that you
take care of it. Of course, if I ever come back
and I find out you did Ima take it.
Oh my God. I will, I will take care of it.
I will raise my own. I will sit on this egg.
Do whatever I have to do to help at all.
Don't don't don't sit on the egg.
I'll give him an egg. You have to walk around with it
a bunch. That's just common the whole
idea to keep it warm so don't have to pee on it or anything.
It's an alone, it's an alone sandslash.
So insane. The freezer.
Please don't keep One that's honestly better.
Okay. All right.
Cool, cool. Yes.
Oh my God, that you're the best Professor ever.
I have never gotten a Pokemon in my entire life and he is never
let me, it's only taken nearly 30 weeks for me to get this.
And this is the best prize I could have ever gotten.
Thank you, Professor. Lucas, professor professor Palm.
If you could cost a life outside, the classroom with you
real quick, briefly, what? Right back.
So hey, that was a fake egg that you gave him, right?
It's not going to turn. To anything 100%.
It's going to stick that thing in the freezer.
It's going to be nothing but I do think you should be getting
it. He should be getting a Pokemon
at his age, but it should be up to his parents and for the
reading Professor, you to do it but not not fees.
If it does hatch it's gonna happen to just like it's candy
inside. So we make sure that it's okay.
Like, once you put it in the freezer, it just gonna be candy.
He's he's so dumb. He might think that's what a
baby's hand through looks like. Now keep in mind, I could be
lying. You and it's a real Saint true.
We'll never know until we know it's a better crack that bitch
open, then, huh? Oh shit, and your daughter it.
All right, let's head back into the class.
Anyway, carbon-carbon graduations, all thanks.
When I come back. Hopefully it's something
beautiful and something you'll remember for as long as you can.
I shake it around here like something rattling?
It is this the baby sound. I mean, it's just so cute.
Don't first of all touching, it will shake it out.
You shake that, I'll keep it. I'll take good care of it.
I promise, I promise. Don't worry Professor Palm, I
will, I will take copious notes on how he takes care of that
egg. Oh, Curtis.
Don't you? Don't think I left you out.
You got something to, you'll get something for your hard work.
What? Please Professor.
I would never I have here pose myself.
Sadly, since lashes are not Immortal.
They do pass and sadly one or two have passed, but I was able
to A couple of their claws. Well, turn them into gloves.
So, here you go. That's Kirsten same /, gloves
for gardening, or whatever you want to use them for, hmm.
I mean, granted, it's not as cool as my present.
I got a real Saint /. Yes, yes.
You certainly did get a real sense, laughs?
Yeah, shoots and true. Yes, you did.
What, did you think when you said real?
Oh no, no, that's a one-eyed link.
Yeah, he has a professor Palm. Professor Palm actually has a
glass eye, so if you can imagine that that would be yeah, that's
rally. Gator did not go down without a
fight, but he did go down. Wow.
Well well thank you Professor. These gloves will come in great
hands handy when it'll definitely speed up the time of
getting out of those cocoons in the morning.
I'm glad you like it. Don't ever contact me, I like
that. You like it.
Don't contact me, don't call me. Alright, that does it for
today's lesson, does anybody know what Pokemon we will be
talking about next time? Well, I'm go back into my whole
I don't know what y'all. You leaving already?
I came here for variance. I have things to do.
I got my own life to live kid. Okay, well fine.
Well, thank you for coming and I'm gonna miss you and you've
brought something to this class that nobody else pride and sense
of humor. Good taste, a duck Trio.
Whole. Yeah.
All that and mostly the trio and a Pokemon for me.
What I've always wanted. Yes, IPS enjoy your answer.
I appreciate your guidance and your your extra.
Love you know dynamic that you've brought to please come
back soon. We beg of you please.
Yes, a professor pom. I have to say thank you so much
for your Insight on the regional variants of sandslash.
You know, your expertise in this area has definitely made this,
an excellent class and I will, I will, you know, when the next
time we talk about original variant, I will have your phone
number on speed, dial because we don't talk enough.
You did it. You didn't have it on speed dial
already. I have yours as like, Gardevoir
winky face. That's what it, had them on my
phone. That's a lie.
It's not true. Didn't have no, no, it's not a
lie. It's a nun.
Confirmed truth. Yep.
Goodbye Professor Palm. Oh, miss you Dia by Pig?
Dugtrio go. There he goes.
And I don't. Why did he make us?
There? Was already a whole.
Why did he make a second hole? Dug Trio.
Can't dig. And already made whole.
Then it wouldn't. I mean, that's true, but he
could have just walked out for the second floor.
The door. I have a door, there's a door
right there. It's fixed from when Team Rocket
grunt. Ryan broke it down.
Yes. It's you you walk through it
again to class today. Oh yeah I did do that didn't I
let's let's resume let's resume our classroom activities.
Okay. We're not done with class yet
because does anybody know what Pokémon will be will be
discussing next week? It is a poison-type Pokémon so I
think this is this might be the first know.
Obviously we talked about Is it, is it?
It's at a you attempted come. I'm sorry mock.
My dyslexia kicked in. No, it's we are talking about
Knitter and more specifically, the female Nidoran?
Yeah, so, is this your thing? It'll be the first time that we
talk about a Pokemon that has a completely different pokedex
entry for its different genders. So now be interesting, they'll
be awesome. Um, all right, so Does it for
today's lesson until next time. Oh, I suppose.
If you have questions for me, you can, of course, Gmail me.
Which is, of course, Gengar mail, you can G mail me at wwo
Pokémon at gmail.com, you don't have a ganger male, I suggest
you get one, but you still don't want to, or you can contact me
on Twitter, which is, of course, the bird Pokemon themed website
at at wwo Pokémon there as well. All right, again, that does it
for today's class. Until next time class is
dismissed. All right guys, this is going to
be another one of those rare occasions.
When I break character, I have to say a huge thank you to Lucas
for being our guest Professor on this lesson.
So I want I want to throw it again.
Lucas what I said. Yes, thank you.
Lucas. Thank you claps clouds for his
excellent of that great energy. You've brought to the episode
today, we appreciate it. Yeah, so look us.
Feel free to plug, whatever it is that you.
Wants get just go for it. I am one of the team behind the
Poke science podcast. We are a podcast dedicated to
teaching how the real world next to the Pokemon world.
I was so excited to be a part of this for this specific episode
because the sandslash is, but we know in the game are based on
real-world pangolins. They're one of my favorite
animals and part that. They're so cute and they can
climb trees, and they do have all these cool things.
But also in that, they are an endangered species that most
people don't learn about. So hopefully people get to learn
more about them. You want to learn more about our
show? That's poke signs that poke sign
podcast. So they'll be a link hopefully
somewhere in this description somewhere for you.
To find us, we're on where you'll find just about any one
of the, any one of the podcast sites typically has our show.
We are so excited to teach people.
We have so much planned for this year.
Also, if you guys are interested in learning more about the real
penguin, the real animal David Attenborough is the vice
president of fauna and Flora International.
They are people that help to protect and keep pangolins from
being Used and exploited because they are, they are what they
are. The most trafficked animal on
the planet. It's one of the saddest things.
I wish people knew more about, but I'm hoping that this stuff
like this. We can get nerves that other
people to just come together me. Like, hey, this thing is cool
and the game, it's cool in real life, but thank you guys so much
for having me. I don't get to swear on my shows
which means I can swear gear. What about brother?
You can you can say whatever you want on here.
Yeah, we recently had to change it from the poket, the science
of Pokemon simply because Nintendo has been really
intense. Do we lately?
So it is poke science to make sure the Nintendo stuff being
intend. Oh, man, we might have to worry
about that if we ever get big. Alright, so yeah, we will see
you guys, for the next lesson later guys.
Thank you guys so much for having me.
