Hey! Considering how big this video is, I obviously cant go over every detail, that's why we also do 10+ minute videos about individual Pokemon. However, in our usual fashion, we did indeed make some mistakes (not mentioning something is not a mistake for the most part, unless its something integral, rather than additional). So I'll document those by editing this comment. Here they are: -I said grey squirrels came to the UK from mainland Europe, they actually came to the UK AND the mainland from North America. -One of the "Anacondas" shown was actually a reticulated python. Also Sandaconda's nose is a double-barreled shotgun, which were invented by Joseph Manton, an English man. -Major forgot to mention some of the more important Fossilmon details, (which are being covered in their own video) But the big one for now is that Arcto COULD be from a Mosasaur or Ichthyosaur, but I'm leaning more towards the Arctophoca / Arcophoca. Which is a prehistoric seal. Notably, even the Mosasaur and Ichthyosaur are NOT actually dinosaurs. Just like that seal/walrus. -Galarian Stunfisk actually reflects the idea that beartraps were originally intended for humans, as its mouth is a Pokeball, acting similarly to Foongus and Voltorb as Pokeball-mimics. - The Penguin hockey team we mentioned IS in the UK, but we used the wrong logo, its the logo of an American team. also while we're here: the word "Penguin" actually comes from Welsh, meaning "White Head" -The Japanese word for 'snowman' translates to 'snow daruma,' daruma dolls being what darmanitan was already based on. Making the connection with snow.

In thievul's shield pokedex entry it states that "Boltund is its natural enemy." I think this helps explain boltunds somewhat super hero like design, in the sense that thievul is a conniving villain and boltund is the hero who stops it.

The rune on stonjourner looks straight up like Ingwaz to me. It is also sometimes called Ing and can look a couple other ways. It mainly represents a god called Freyr-Yngvi, which is Old Norse for Lord Yngvi. His title is often shortened to just Freyr, meaning Lord. He is one of Odin's sons, a fertility god, and supposedly the ancestor to a Swedish royal family. Aside from that, the rune symbolizes rest (stand around a lot), a deep connection with the Earth (made of stones), secrets (mysteriously gather), and a time when one must move forward with something (able literally move around). It also symbolizes some other things like home, family love, life, fertility in men, and a sound like a quick ng, but I don't see how any of this symbolism is connected to stonjourner.

Important note for Eternatus: While Eternamax Eternatus is obviously a hand it's also a Hydra. The "fingers" open at the end when Eternatus attacks, making it look like a 5-headed snake. This is fitting as Hydras have eternally regenerating heads (until they're burnt) This also helps explain its type, as Hydras were dragon-like creatures with very dangerous acid/venom in Greek legends.

Snake enthusiast here! I’d like to speculate that Silicobra is based on false cobras, specifically the Egyptian false cobra because of its desert origins. The “false” connection also makes sense since Silicobra isn’t poison type, only looking like a cobra to trick predators into thinking it is; most false cobras aren’t truly venomous, either, and any venom they do have is usually mild compared to that of the cobras they mimic. As for Silicobra and Sandaconda’s subtle shiny forms, I like to think they’re inspired by the axanthic morph of some snakes-which basically leaves you with a washed out, grayscale snake. And one more thing I just wanted to point out. I hate to be that person, but the snake on the right at 13:04 is a ball python. They’re sweet little things that only get to be 5-6 feet tops, as opposed to anacondas that grow to around 20 feet. 😅

"Eternatus" is the symbolic representation of the eternal life, death, and rebirth cycle known as Ouroboros, which is why you get "born again" from its name. Eternatus' dragon typing and appearance references the the Ouroboros' depiction of a snake or a serpent devouring its own tail. This lore points to the belief that when then messiah returns (born again as a human) and is named Christ, he will automatically become the King of England as England is said to be the Heart Chakra of planet earth.

There is an interesting duality in zacian and zamazenta. the Pokedex refers to them as being either siblings or rivals, being unclear as to which is true (I personally think it's both). Furthermore, the game seems to imply that they are different genders, as zacian's shield Pokedex entry claims that zacian is the elder sister to zamazenta, meaning that zacian is female. This makes sense when comparing their typings and designs. Zacian has mainly smooth curves that contribute to a "sleek" look (something common among female creatures in media), not to mention the rather feminine typing of fairy and how the "hero of many battles" having the long braids and prominent markings near the eyes. This differs greatly from zamazenta's much spikier, almost always plated look, along with the masculine type of fighting, the cape-like mane present in "crowned shield" form, and the ponytail reminiscent of the stereotypical plumage on a knight's helmet. This is of course without considering the implications of their titles of "the fairy king's sword" and "the fighting master's shield," which is an entirely different rabbit hole

Also, the Japanese word for "snowman" is yuki-daruma (snow daruma); daruma being the inspiration for Darumaka and Darmanitan.

Also, in Portuguese, Snowman is "Boneco de Neve", Which, when Translated means "Doll made of Snow.", and Daruma and Darumaka *are Dolls.*

14:00 one quick additional note on penguins tying them to the UK- they were named by a british naturalist misunderstanding some of his welsh crewmen! The story goes that on the voyage where penguins were first documented, he heard the crew talking about the "pin guin", and when he looked where they were pointing, he saw the birds, so he figured the crew knew what they were and that was the name, so that's what he wrote and presented to the Royal Academy upon their return. However, "pin guin" in welsh actually means something along the lines of "white mountains", the things the birds were standing on, and what the crewmen were actually talking about. So, a welsh word overheard, misunderstood, and written by an British naturalist is how we get the name "Penguin"

Actually, penguin are named after the current name for the great auk, an extinct bird that is somewhat similar to penguin.

That’s just like how the French misinterpreted the Native Canadian peoples when they said “Kanata” (which means village) and the French men thought that they were referring to the name of the COUNTRY, which they misinterpreted as “Canada”.

The Norse inspiration for Zacian and Zamazenta works well with Glactrier and Spectrier from the crown tundra DLC. Also, I think that the dog Boltund is based on is a border collie, with the hound part just referencing that it's a dog. If not, it's just Scooby Doo.
