My image for true arceus is the beta sprite. The beta sprite was ethereal, and inconceivable kinda like how God of Judeo-Christian religions is described (this extends to the biblically accurate angels we all know and love) Beta Arceus is also seemingly fluid and that can be interpreted as a being that's omnipresent which is the way I interpret the countless arms. If it had a much more detailed artwork, maybe sprinkle in some nebulas and starfire on it to signify that it is a heavenly being (kinda like league's Aurelion Sol), that it is the one above all

@kimberlyramin Жыл бұрын
I'm pretty sure the original forms of Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark are just Unovan Zorua and Zoroark. We know that people inhabit Unova by the time period Legends Arceus takes place in, since Professor Laventon brought an Oshawatt to Hisui, and Unovan Zorua and Zoroark already have mystical powers of illusion. They seem to be in that category of Dark types that are in the type more because people mistrust them than anything they do, like Absol. It's possible that there was another form, but I don't know what piece of lore makes you think it existed or was a fairy type.
@cairneoleander8130 Жыл бұрын
@@kimberlyramin the timeline argues that Dark type Zorua and Zoroark came about later, not previously. And certainly not concurrently. If we then allow the Pokédex entries to speak for themselves: Hisuian Zoroark and Zorua came about because of humans abusing it. It died and came back as this form. The abused partly dead form is normal/ghost. It only stands to reason that as time continues it would shift from half ghost to full Dark with continued fear and abuse from humans. Therefore it would also stand to reason that whatever form it was before it was abused and died to become Normal/Ghost, it wasn’t those before. You don’t corrupt a Dark type and make it less Dark. Dark would be the darkest it gets. It makes zero sense to imagine a Dark type Zorua was abused, died, and became less Dark. It only makes sense going the other direction.
@kimberlyramin Жыл бұрын
@@cairneoleander8130 There isn't really a timeline to argue over, since we don't know the state of affairs in the Unova region during the Hisui period. We know the Sinnoh region's timeline in a very broad, vague sense, but we don't know the wider world's status, including the full list of existing pokemon and forms. As for the typing, Zoroark's line is Dark type because humans mistrust it, in the same way that Absol is Dark type because humans think it causes disasters. Zoroark actually has similar, if more powerful abilities than Stantler, creating illusions and causing confusion. If humans didn't hate Zoroark, it easily could've been Normal or Psychic type. But they do, so humans abused and probably killed a number of the pokemon, resulting in the angriest and most stubborn of them becoming vengeful undead. Ghost type isn't a corruption, it's just the state of lingering after death. Now that Zoroark is undead, it's a ghost type. It's more the normal type that would mean the original wasn't Dark type, which i can believe. I just don't think it would've been Fairy. I think the original Hisuian Zorua and Zoroark were normal types, maybe normal ice. It's possible this was the original species, and events played out differently for it in Unova and Hisui, resulting in the spilt. In Hisui, the pokemon was unable to avoid the exploring members of Galactic, so it created a scary illusion to chase them away. The people then became too scared of the pokemon, their emotions went full circle into hatred, and a decision was made to hunt them so they couldn't hurt them anymore. This resulted in the terrible events that created the Hisuian form we know today. Meanwhile in Unova, the Zoroark may have been better at hiding, or better at creating their illusions, and were able to exist on the periphery of human awareness for a very long time, like those shadows you spot out the corner of your eye, but then you look and it's gone. People became paranoid about the dark forests that zoroark lived in, especially since they could never find their way in certain areas. These emotions were felt and absorbed by the Zoroark of Unova for a long time, and gradually turned them into the Dark type we know now, since again, Dark type isn't exclusively evil, it's also the type of pokemon that are simply mistrusted because of their nature or abilities.

In regards to Arceus: in Arceus and the jewel of life, Arceus gives a character three of it's plates to make a jewel, the jewel of life which are pieces of arceus's life. Arceus is incomplete without them. Additionally, some dex entries speak of arceus using it's 1000 arms. This suggests that those parts that arceus gave could be like in the movie, or that the arms are the part that are unseen. I therefore don't think arceus giving 'parts' of itself means it has a different form.

It would indeed be cool if "second shinies" or alternately colored pokemon were a thing in the mainline pokemon games. One can only hope that it will actually happen in a future pokemon game! If it did happen, that would be a revolutionary pokemon game, and makes it unique in it's own way. If I had to guess where something like that would occur, my guess would be a region of Japan that hasn't been made into a traditional pokemon region yet. Or maybe it would happen on one of those Orange Island equivalents. It would be cool if they made the Orre region a mainline pokemon region. It has a lot of potential. Or if they could rerelease XD Gale of Darkness or Colluseum again on the switch, that would be great. But I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up, as per usual. I suppose as long as they make great pokemon games going forward, I'll be happy.

I think it’s safe to say that the Arceus we see is just a physical extension of its entirety.

With arceus only being a part of itself could you do a video with new forms of arceus that could maybe appear in future games

Pretty sure that the hisuian Goodra was a refrence to the shelled gastrodon.

I think it's important to clarify: colusium and XD are main series pokemon games! Let's get down what a main series game is. A main series game is 1 that you play as a trainer catching pokemon*, filling in a pokedex, & playing through a story. *those pokemon have to be able to be moved to what is now pokemon home. Obvious exceptions for partner pikachu/eevee, scruffy pichu, and cosplay pikachu. With different types of games like sun & moon, PLA, and let's go E/P which each respectively lack gyms, an elite four & badge system at all, & wild encounter battles we need to reclarify and redefine what a main series poke on game is and pokemon colusium and XD are as much a respect to the main series as any of those other deviant games and are actually vital to completing your origional gen 3 pokedexs.

Imagine if there was a hidden string of codes that demands you to have 32 boxes full of arceus and it would all combine into one and create "true arceus". That would be not only a tedious job to do but would be crazy. Obviously it doesn't exist since we have an awesome team of hackers/dataminers. But just imagine that was a hidden way to get it and had been hidden all this time lol. I miss when games had obscure unlockable secrets

That wouldn't make sense. The forms are like that because Mt. Coronet divides Sinnoh into an eastern and western half. There's no geographical formation dividing it into north/south. Of course they could always make a region with such a feature, but I doubt they'd do that just to get more Gastrodon forms

If you’re comparing Terastal to crystal pokemon, there’s yet another easy connection. Delta Pokémon. Literally the same type changing ability.

I think with XD and colosseum, I believe the devs have never played a Pokémon game before developing those titles(can't remember if it was both or one or the other) so most likely they told the devs that Pokémon can have alternate colours, and since they've never played a Pokémon game before they just went with whatever they thought fit
@frescopino7866 Жыл бұрын
Arceus' alternate form most likely doesn't exist anymore. Many pieces of lore in Legends, especially in the original Japanese game, suggest that the Arceus we catch is indeed a piece of the original, but so are Palkia, Dialga, Arceus, Giratina, Mesprit, Uxie and Azelf. To have an Arceus "Origin Form", if it is even possible, the universe would basically cease to be, as Time and Space would be undone and the Distortion World would merge with the regular universe.

Cool video but i think arceus having a separate form is a huge reach, even more when considering origin dialga and palkia incorporate arceus current design into their forms

Could’ve sworn light Pokémon was in Pokémon go, because after you purify a dark Pokémon it has a light aura surrounding it.
@matthewbooth8487 Жыл бұрын
Technically, there's "Light" pokemon in GO; it's what you get when you purify a shadow pokemon in that game. It's distinct from a non-shadow pokemon, notably.
