Crab is literally crab.

>>29510582
what did they mean by this

>Slowpoke is literally slowpoke, a term for someone who is slow. It can be also a combination of slow and poke (an abbreviation of Pokémon).

Actual Trivia:
-Wild Kricketot only appear in Gen IV. In ORAS Kricketune MUST be breeded to get a seen of Kricketot.

-Jigglypuff line is the only line that appears in at least one Pokédex of each region (excluding BW1 obviously). Pikachu, Abra, Machop, Geodude, and Magikarp lines would be there too but they don't appear in BW2 Pokédex (of this group, only Magikarp can be caught in-game though).

-Mega Medicham has the lowest high stat of all the Megas, with both Atk and Spe at 100.

-Kanto and Johto starters share the same stat spread, but spreaded differently, but Typhlosion is Charizard's clone stat-wise.

-Owls aren't birds, they are ghosts.

>>29510582
Greninja may be inspired by a ninja and a frog

>>29510933
Forgot that Zubat line also appears in at least one Pokédex of each region.

Did you know? In some countries, Pokemon is a video game series?

Torterra is the second or third best grass starter of all.

Meowth may be a combination of meow (the sound a cat makes) and mouth.

There were more Poison type Pokemon introduced in Generation 1 than all of the other generations combined.

"Seel" may be combination of "see" and "eel"

Did you know Pokemon is an abbreviation of Poker Money? This is likely due to the luck-based gameplay and the way fans of the series waste their money buying the games.

>>29511106
There are more Poison-type Pokemon in generation 1 than there are stars in the Universe.

Name origin
Popplio may be a combination of sea lion pup, pop, pōpō (Hawaiian for ball), and ʻīlio-holo-i-ka-uaua (Hawaiian for the Hawaiian monk seal; meaning "dog that runs in rough water").

What the hell Bulbapedos?

Koffing = Coughing
Weezing = Sneezing

>Fire types have the second highest amount of resistances, with 6.
>No electric type can learn swords dance (other than Arceus)
>If a pokemon had all the types, its only weakness would be rock.
>Prior to gen 6, female Azurill had a 1/3 chance of evolvng into male Marill, due to different gender ratios.
>Sunkern has the lowest BST of all pokemon, with 180.
>Arcanine has the highest BST of any pokemon that isn't a legendary, pseudo, mega, or has a negative ability, with 555. Next up are Florges, with 552, and Volcarona, with 550.

>>29510582
>Stantler and the Forretress line are not registered in any other regional dexes than Johto's

>The International Police were in game since Gen 1

>Smeargle's normal and shiny sprite were swapped in Gen 2

>Tangela was the only pure grass type in Gen 1

>Beheeyem's BW box sprite has the colorization of its shiny

>Shedinja can't be fed in Amie

>The speed of N's text is always faster than whatever speed you have the text set at

>>29510966
Magnemite, too, thanks to Platinum's expanded Dex.

>>29511450
>Shedinja can't be fed in Amie
It's not alone, I remember not being able to feed Spewpa, either. I assume most of the cocoon Pokemon are the same way.

Honedge, however, can be fed.

>>29510582
Grass: Ferrothorn is the Grass-type with the least amount of weaknesses, with 2 (Fighting and Fire)
Poison: >>29511106
Fire: Is the type that can do the highest damage of all the existing types. It can do x8 damage to Dry Skin Paras line.
Flying:
Water: Has the highest amount of Pokémon than any other type.
Bug: All Pokémon with this type will never lose it (Drapion being an exception)
Normal: Until Gen VI, it was the only type that was exclusively first type. Most moves are Normal-type, with 190 being of that type.
Electric: ORAS added a Mega of each type except Electric.
Ground: Before Gen V, all starters could learn Earthquake.
Fighting: With Psychic, it was the only type whose moves didn't change category.
Psychic: Once it was the most broken type, with being immune to Ghost, Bug was it only weakness but it had low BP moves, and Dark didn't exist at that time.
Rock: Of all the types, Rock is the only that has more Super Effective than Resistor. Because of this if exists a Pokémon of all typings it will only be weak to Rock
Ice: Ice is the type with the least amount of resistances: ITSELF.
Ghost: No moves of this type has less than 100% accuracy.
Dragon: It was the only type that didn't received a new type in Gen VI.

Steel: Magnemite and Togedemaru lines are the Pojémon with the highest amount of resistances, with 10 as of Gen VII.
Dark: It was the only type whose ALL attacking moves changed category: from Special to Physical

Fairy: Of all the existing types, it has the highest average SpD stat.

>>29511013

Flying: Until Gen V, it was a secondary type.

>Dragon: It was the only type that didn't received a new type in Gen VI.

The icy parts of Kyurem may be a reference to ice.

I've only just realized this, but... Not only are Diamond and Pearl in the exact middle generation-wise, but also timeline-wise!
>>29511523
Also, there are no dragon types who evolve by a method other than leveling. Ice also doesn't have the least resistances. Normal doesn't have any!

Most of the pokemon fanbase on tumblr does not care about gender selection and produces good art from time to time

On Ash's page, do tbey still have the Dewgong picture trivia?

In XY you can crossbreed berries in order to create new berries.

Mawile used to have a different footprint.

>>29511530
Sceptile I would say, but I'm not that guy

>>29512494
This is false. One if for her foot, the other is for her hair. You can see this reflected in her sprite.

>>29511318
You know wheezing is an actual thing right?

>>29512531
Her hair does not have feet you silly

>>29512584
Then how do you explain the footprint?

>>29512635
It was her old foorprint

out of all 10 physical Rock type moves, only 1 has 100% accuracy. That move is smack down

This is Night Slash's Japanese name.

What is Mega Charizard X?

>>29511318

Holy fuck you're stupid.

You can finish the gen 3 Pokedex with only Emerald, LeafGreen, Colosseum and Gale of Darkness. FireRed doesn't work, because Slowpoke isn't available in the Gamecube games or Emerald for some reason, while all of FireRed's exclusives are.

>>29511106
There's already more fairy types than ice types

>>29512936
MegaZard X doesn't evolve.

>>29512739
Inversely, every ghost-type attack has 100% accuracy.

"Jirachi was Tomiko Suzuki’s last role. She died of a fatal heart attack a week and a half before the film’s theatrical release. To that day, Suzuki passed away on the day of Tanabata, the Japanese star festival with which Jirachi is commonly associated."

In Gen 2, you can do Jasmine after Pryce and the Radio Tower. In fact, the level curve oddity of Jasmine -> Lake of Rage -> Pryce -> Radio Tower implies that leaving Jasmine as the 7th Gym Leader may be intentional (or was during development).

You can also skip Brawly in Gen 3 and come back way later. I only learnt this recently.

Nothing has ever gained the Bug type via evolution, a mega evo, or an alternate form.

Grass would be in the same boat if not for Rotom and Wormadam, who only gain it by haunting a lawnmower and using a leaf cloak.

"An Ice Rock (Japanese:こおりでおおわれたいわ ice-covered rock) is an ice-covered rock."

Ahahahaha

>>29510582
Did you know?
The Pokémon Sawk and Throh are based on the red oni and blue oni from Japanese folklore.

>>29513109
Really? I know you can go to Slateport before him but I recall Magma/Aqua blocking the bike route

>>29513237
It's a speedrun strat to leave skip Brawly and wreck him way later.

It may be Emerald only or something.

In gen 3, its possible for wally to KO the ralts he is supposed to catch
The odds of this occurring is rarer than base shiny rate, at 1/8574

Unova: 20 towns
Kalos: 16 towns
Alola: I'm speculating 11 towns

Also working on this image. It is very autistic and will take forever to finish, but I feel it would be cool to have visual of them all in one image for comparisons. I'll probably add fancy stuff like names and shit after I get all the screenshots.

>>29511530
Sceptile, obviously.

>>29513293
You're trying to make a comparative list of towns/cities right? I'd recommend choosing your pics more wisely. Slowpoke well =/= Azalea town, and Ecruteak, Olivine, and Eterna could use better images. I want to say you should label the ones with Gyms, but I'm not sure how that'd work. Especially since I just realized Sevii doesn't have Gyms.

Good job anon, I'd love to see that image being complete, keep at it

>>29513444
I'm using the most dynamic and interesting screenshots I can find. Some places use landmarks in the town rather than the towns themselves.

The real idea is being able to instantly tell what town it is just by the screenshot, and I tend to give preference to more dynamic images when I have them which is where stuff like Ambrette Town Museum or Glitter Lighthouse come in. And why Eterna City needs that, since it is the only one Sinnoh has, due to camera angle changes only starting with HGSS. I feel it'd be unfair.

Though you are right about Azelea Town. That will have to be replaced. Some locations actually have two pics, this is more or less a progress pic rather than the final version.


>>29513540
Thanks, it's a little hard, as the 3DS images are purely based on what I can find online. Though I do have a couple consistent places for everything except Kanto pics. Could use a complete HGSS sav file since I havent beaten mine yet

not him but a better Bug fact would be that the first Gen that gave every Bug type Bug STAB was 4, with the introduction of Bug Bite, which was given to the last few bugs with no STAB, one of them being Shuckle.

>>29510966

Here's one:
The highest base HP of any Bug type belongs to none other than Yanmega, at a whopping 86
