TWO SLIGHT GOOFS IN THE BEGINNING. Psyduck Evo and magnemite Evo are supposed to say MIDDLE EVOLUTION and NOT pre evolution.
-
i want gorochu. WE WERE ROBBED.
-
I love that early Pokemon had really creative names like Deer, Elephant, and Seel
-
Cubone and Marowak absolutely still deserve that final evo. It locks in the kanga connection, its a terrific design and it rounds out the line's "story" as it were
-
They said Gorochu got cut for balance reasons. Gen 1 does not have any 3rd stage electric types. Maybe they were worried that electric types were too powerful, or that Zapdos was enough.
-
Video starts at 2:20
-
I'm wondering if maybe the idea for Kotora and Raitora wasn't abandoned completely, instead becoming the basis for a bigger electric cat - Raikou.
-
Gorochu would work really well as mega or form change. A regional variant of Raichu or a split evo could work to but it really does look like a upgrade/evo of Raichu.
-
Wild to me they didn’t revisit Omega when they came up with the Paradox Pokemon. Just make it a robot Kangaskhan from the future and have its lore be that it was supposedly created to be a robotic nanny.
-
edited like a true magician, such a shame some of these never made the cut when they looked so promising. FreeZeti, Kotora & the GOAT Crocky ofc
-
That thumbnail reminds me of one of those stroke simulation photos where everything looks eerily familiar but you can’t actually recognize anything
-
Why do I like that Zubat pre evolution so much lol
-
It's worth looking in to Guaoon being reused as Tyranitar
-
I have always thought Gayoon became Tyranitar. It's supposed prevo has Larvitar vibes as well.
-
Lol before I clicked on the video I for some reason thought it was going to be a video of all the gen 1 pokemon that could learn Cut. I'm faded
-
I 100% clicked on this video under the assumption it was a list of Pokemon from Gen who could learn the HM 1 Cut. I was pleasantly surprised
-
I've seen some of these designs, of course, but never saw anything quite so well presented as this. I think about half of these were new to me, as well. I appreciate you putting this together!
-
Incredible how the art based on the Deer seems like a fusion of hitmonlee, kangaskhan, smearlgle, stantler...
-
I kind of like the idea of ponyta first being a normal horse. That then turns into fire type. It captures a unique sense of wonder. You see this regular horse that most people would and often do just walk by but for those who tame it are graced with a beautiful and 'rare' fire horse. I personally think that would have definitely make that evolution line stand out against all the other pokemon both back then and now.
-
I read from dr lava with newer translation that rhydon, lapras & clafairy are the first 3 pokemon ever designed & other sources that basically say pokemon were originally kaijus & more monster like
