Things you never noticed in Pokemon.

[BENZOOKA]

I never noticed the things I didn't notice. True story.

 

[Lizardon]

There were 38 Missingnos and each one was a cut pokemon, they'd later be added in G/S/C but narrowing them down has been tough (most agree that the likes of Donphan and Ampharos were in as them being cut explains the....... odd choices in the original Safari Park) and many think the pokemon that appeared in the anime early like Ho-oh and Togepi were meant to be in it originally, hell, one of the original Developers confirmed that there was meant to be more than the original 151 in Pokemon Red, but they had to be removed for tech and budget reasons....

It wasn't so much that they made more Pokemon, but had planned to but for whatever reason only went with 151. The reason for the vast amount of glitch Pokémon in Generation I is because only 151 index values correspond to valid Pokémon; while another 39 correspond to blank Pokemon data with no assigned number, hence MissingNo (Missing Number)


Why are the Safari Zone Pokemon in Red/Blue odd choices? I don't see the link to Donphan and Ampharos.

As for my thing I never noticed, when I saw the Gen V Pokemon Maractus;

I thought that it's head was it's body and it's right "ear" was were it's face was (two yellow eyes and a dark green jaw). It's left ear and right arms were it's arms while it's left arm and body were it's feet, so it was standing on one leg kicking. And I've probably confused all of you by trying to explain this.

Anyway the point is that it wasn't until I saw some other artwork of it that I realised what I was actually looking at.

i don't know how true this is, but someone told me a few weeks ago that the black tail is wobbuffet and that the blue thing is just a meat shield

That is definitely just a fan theory, although I would love it to be true.

also that squirtle is called that because it has a turtles body and a squirrels tail

I would have thought it was a combination of "squirt" (as in to spray or little) and "turtle".

That the pokemon Ekans is Snake backwards

mind=blown.
Did not even realise that until just now lol

It goes further. Ekans' evolved form, Arbok, is (misspelled) Cobra backwards.

And Muk's name spelled backwards is...

...actually not spelled backwards as "muck" is an actual word

...it was a joke. I know that "muck" is a word, it was a joke...an immature joke, but still.

[natster43]

I never noticed a Smeargle, as in I have never seen one in the wild.
Also that Grass is strong to Rock, didn't learn that until like a year ago.

 

[Irridium]

You know Brock, right? He uses rock type pokemon.

Take another look at his name.

Brock.

 

[mrdude2010]

Psyduck's nose is an Asian ghost.

The town naming system is all colors, and all of the towns have a slightly different color filter in the earlier pokemons.

 

[mrdude2010]

I recently found out that Voltorb is Volt and Orb combined.

Also, Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres ends with Uno, Dos and Tres.
People tend to point that out all the time, but it hadn't been mentioned here yet.

Adding onto that, from Pokemon Black

There's only 1 Mudkip in the entire region.

I guess no one else leiks Mudkips

 

[Robert Ewing]

What do they eat if they don't kill pokémon? And why has nobody documented the medical marvel of hundreds of twin sisters in the pokémon universe? Why does Ash say he wants to catch em' all, but the never catches any?

 

[Frokane]

ekans is snake backwards
no children seem to go to school
Arbok is Kobra backwards
Kabuto means helmet
Shelder isnt needed for Slowpoke's evolution

I always thought Rock type attacks were Not Very Effective against Rock type Pokemon.

It's neutral, though, and took me years to learn that.

Really?

I always thought that when you use the same element on a pokemon, that it's always going to bw not very effective

 

[Marter]

Really?

I always thought that when you use the same element on a pokemon, that it's always going to bw not very effective

Normal on Normal. Neutral.
Fighting on Fighting. Neutral.
Ghost on Ghost. Super Effective.
Ground on Ground. Neutral.
Flying on Flying. Neutral.
Bug on Bug. Neutral.
Dragon on Dragon. Super Effective.

The rest, I believe, are Not Very Effective.
