"A human became a Pokemon? That has so many implications." Yes, yes it does. Canonically, in text from the games themselves, human and Pokemon are pretty much the same thing. There are stories of an age where they *were* the same, getting married, having children with each other, etc. At some point they split off from each other, but some Pokemon retain their human connections. Mostly ghost Pokemon, which are often (though not always!) formed from human souls, but also things like Kadabra, which canonically (according to the in-game Pokedex, at least) used to be a psychic human child that woke up one day transformed into a Pokemon, in a very Kafka-esque scenario.

25:35 I love how they accidentally give the point to Devon anyway, after he didn't say "um, actually", realize their mistake, and discretely switch it over to Tao while they're talking. I see you!

Um actually, the reason Fry is immune to the brainspawn is because the genetic mutation made him NOT produce the delta brain wave, which the brains were trying to suppress

the whole "Geralt of Rivia" trivia bit actually goes deeper and is honestly one of my favorite backstory twists ive seen in writing...As mentioned, Witchers make up fake knighthood titles to gain favor with potential employers BUT Geralt actually becomes knighted by the queen of Rivia (Meve) when he stumbles on them fighting a losing battle with Nilfgard for a bridge crossing...and since Geralt and his party had to cross they ended up winning the battle for Rivia and rewarded with knighthood. So he never lived there...made up the title...but eventually became a true knight and actually Geralt of Rivia

Um actually, in Star vs. the Forces of Evil, in "Meteora's Lesson" and "Mama Star" it is very heavily suggested that mewmans are descended from mindwiped human pilgrims who traveled from Earth through the Realm of Magic.

Um actually, in Starship Troopers, it's the world government, they just happened to live in Argentina.

Um actually, the earth in Starship Troopers has a unified government called the United Citizen Federation. Would you like to know more?

I like how emphatic Trapp is when he's explaining how fucked up the pokemon world is, almost like he's been voicing a series about that exact topic for years.

When Kim said “what is a king to a God“ all I could think of was TFS Vegeta screaming “what is a God to a nonbeliever“ in their Broly movie

I can’t wait for an Um, Actually of Um, Actually. Like a whole episode where the shelves are blank and Trapp asks them about show trivia. Winners, incorrect props, etc etc

Um Actually, Shuppet evolves into Banette so it can't be the reverse, however it remains the correct answer because Banette can Mega Evolve. Also Um Actually, Yamask now has a branched evolution depending on its regional variant, Galarian Yamask instead evolve into Runerigis The concept of Pokémon being born from humans isn't a new thing either; Kadabra's pokédex in Fire Red states that the first Kadabra manifested as a human with 'extrasensory powers', who woke up in bed one day transformed into a Kadabra

I think, specifically, he DOESN'T have a delta brainwave due to being his own grandfather (nasty in the pasty) and has in fact, cobbled something together from other waveforms to act as one?

Um actually, Toffee was never one of Ludo's minions, but he did pose as a consultant to trick his minions and oust Ludo. Also Star and her species may be called Mewmans for the majority of the show, in season 4 it is revealed that Mewni was populated by humans that slipped through a Portal to the Realm of Magic and migrated to Mewni after losing their memories to the Realm of Magic's amnesia effects.

Um actually, the regulations for what firewood you can gather from the environment vary a lot depending on where you are camping. Popular camping areas usually ban gathering wood on-site, but some national forests allow it, some private camping sites allow it, and places with high risk of wildfire usually ban campfires completely regardless of where the wood comes from. But the initial correction is also right, that you should never transport firewood, because it risks bringing along emerald ash borer, oak blight, and a bunch of other nastiness.

Trapp really going hard on the “I’ll give you the point unless someone wants is more right” in this one

Um actually, inserting the 4th law of robotics as the "0th" law actually makes sense from a programming perspective. 0 is always the first value in data structures like Arrays, so provided we're talking about the Laws in context of how a program would interpret them, saying "0th" makes perfect sense.

Um actually, Tao was correct in that you never visit Rivia in The Witcher trilogy. The only time we have seen it in games was during Thronebreaker where you do not play as Geralt. Additionally Geralt took "of Rivia" as a surname but it was made official when he helped Queen Meve during the Battle for the Bridge on Yaruga. She knighted him for his assistance and made him Geralt of Rivia proper.

Discovered this show in the past week and I'm now OBSESSED. More Wheel of Time questions please!

"I did all of this for nothin'" quite possibly the best quote in game history. That is this game in a nut shell!

Um, Actually it wasn't "Bone Zoning" it was "Past Nastification."

So every time George Lucas gets writers block he just asks himself: *"What da dog doin?"*

The King Kong one is a little tricky because his size changed dramatically throughout his various appearance. He was about as big as Godzilla when they appeared together but he started off at about 24 feet tall in his original appearance.

um actually... while "looking at its mask and cries" entry is correct for yamask, it looses that trait when it evolves. Cofagrigus's entries usually revolve around its love of eating gold and trapping human (more specifically grave robbers). its Pokemon sword entry even mentions "people say it no longer remembers that it was once human"

Um, actually Toffee wasn't so much a part of Ludo's army as he was another BBEG who gained Ludo's trust and kicked him out to take over his army

I expected the ghost pokemon one to be "Um actually bannette does technically have an evolution because it mega evolves" not to be referring to its pre-evolution

I can’t believe how much of a grip Mega Man music has on my brain that as soon as they played that theme I started dancing and got extremely sad when it stopped

Happy Friday (or possibly Saturday) to my fellow routine watchers of Um actually!

Um actually, the Graboids were 30ft long while the original King Kong was 24ft tall. Yes, Kong was planned to be between 40-50ft tall, but when he was in New York the model scaled out to 24ft. Devon got all of the monster heights correct.

I’ve never played the Witcher but when that question came up I was like “I bet he’s not from rivia. I know that’s what they call him… but I’ve watched enough um actually to know this is the sort of shit they pull” I’m proud of myself.

Hello everyone watching Um Actually every Friday!

That DuckTales song is so iconic too. And the MegaMan song!! Big oofs.

For the Star question, Toffee was a mercenary, so I'd argue that he shouldn't count as an actual member of Ludo's army

Can't believe it's been 15+ years since I've played the game but I still immediately recognized the ToeJam and Earl music. good times, had a blast playing as a kid

The way traps eyes light up when someone gets his obscure references is so validating to a pedantic nerd like myself.

Um, actually, the Mewmans are not all butterfly people. In fact they only become butterfly people when they go through "Mewberty," an uncontrollable process that begins with them growing hearts all over their bodies and either ends with them going completely back to normal after a set time period, or never going back to normal. After Mewberty is complete, the Mewman is left with a small set of wings. It is implied that Mewberty may only happen to girls, only to royalty, or only to princesses, although this is never confirmed.

when he announced "legal limit" my first thought was identifying the names of fictional alcohols and matching them to the canon's they belong to. Then my next guess was matching characters to their ages (originally thinking legal drinking age joke, then legal adult age joke) and then I was disappointed at what it really meant

19:45 well that's sure an interesting editing choice

The "What's a king to a god" joke at 5:58 went completely underappreciated.

My wife walked down the aisle to a piano cover of the Moon Theme, so naturally it was the first song I expected before they even started playing.

I thought the Pokémon question's answer was going to say that Bennette has a mega evolution because of how it was worded

Um actually, Toffee is never a monster that terrorizes the Mewmans as part of Ludo’s army, and he never terrorizes Star and Marco while he briefly works under Ludo. Within the show’s lore, Toffee was a indestructible warlord who killed Moon’s mother, and was then humiliated when teen Moon cut off one of his fingers with a spell that was intended to kill him (she got this spell from Eclipsa, a former queen of Mewni who was imprisoned due to using dark magic and falling in love with a monster). Toffee takes over Ludo’s castle at the end of season one, and then forces Star to destroy her wand with the Whispering Spell as part of his big revenge plan against Moon. From there, he becomes a wand and begins taunting the realm of magic, takes over Ludo at the end of season 2 and kills a majority of the magic counsel, and does end up temporarily killing Star. This is all his own plans, he never does any of this when he shortly worked for Ludo.

As soon as I heard the theme and layout of the first Shiney Question about Video Game themes, I KNEW that The Moon Theme from Ducktales was going to be in there. Sure enough, first damn one. Fantastic.

The best part of the Futurama episode is when Fry is like "But the guy that is my grandfather is dead, so she can't be my grandmother!" and The Professor says "YOU IDIOT! YOU ARE YOU'RE GRANDFATHER!" and Fry realizes he boned his grandmother.

The statement “Banette has no evolution” is false, but not because of Shuppet. Shuppet evolves into Banette, but is not Babette’s evolution. Rather the correct correction would be Banette’s true evolution: Mega Banette

So excited to see Insectosaurus! I loved Monsters vs. Aliens!

I couldn't contain my excitement when I saw Tao, I really like him!

The whole time I'm thinking, Devon, you gotta say "Um, actually" before you get hurt! Foreshadowing

Not an "um actually", but a fun side-note: the Dreepy / Drakloak / Dragapult line is a definite exception to the "Ghost Pokemon Have Tragic Backstories And A Tormented Existence" situation. They're just having a blast being ghosts (literally, in the case of the two Dreepies who live on Dragapult's head and get shot at enemies).

Just wanted to say that you guys should 100% continue to make these; people love them and this was an absolutely brilliant idea for a channel/game. Keep it coming with the goods! P.S. - Trapp 2024. Absolutely hilarious and has the perfect personality for a host. Keep it up!

This isn’t an Um Actually, it’s just some more fun trivia: while it’s true that Rivia is not Geralt’s homeland, in the books, he does become Geralt of Rivia “officially” when he is knighted as Sir Geralt of Rivia by the Rivian Queen Meve after saving the Rivian Army from an attack by Nilfgaardian forces.

Um actually, in Final Fantasy XV Bahamut is not a variation of a dragon and is actually a humanoid wearing armour that has some slight dragon inspirations. In-game his model is humanoid and mask/helmet is visible and shaped like a human face plus in the novel "Final Fantasy XV: The Dawn of the Future" it is revealed that under his mask, Bahamut's face looks very similar to Somnus Lucius Caelum, the founder king and ancestor of the protagonist, Noctis.

Um actually, it is called, "The Nasty in the Past-y" but that isn't what makes it not "random". Yes, it was caused by the Nasty in the Past-y, but because Nibler knew that he had the delta mutation is why he froze Fry in the first place; Nibbler didn't know why the delta brain wave mutation occurred. However, the mutation was not "random" because it was one of the first paradoxes. It was always meant to be. Thus, not "random" but rather, pre-destined.

Um actually, Mewmans are Humans, as they are descendats of pilgrims who came to Mewni through a magic well which made them loose their memories

Love how Kim drops a Rap God reference after the DDR question so casually.

The Toejam & Earl theme unlocked ancient memories in my brain I didn't know I had.

Um actually, the highest difficulty in DDR was hiding from Stasi.

That Banette question was really, REALLY nitpicky (which I get is part of the show, but still incredibly frustrating) because when you're referring to Pokemon, saying they have an evolution means that they have another form after that Pokemon, such as Wartortle into Blastoise. Saying it has no evolutionary line is more accurate. However, in Pokemon X and Y, Banette DOES get the option to "evolve" into Mega Banette.

Holy shit I was not prepaired for that "No Church in the Wild" reference from Kim Horcher, that's so hilariously unexpected and cool

Um actually... Fry uses his LACK of the delta brainwave in order to defeat the brain spawn. They even go as far in that episode to mention that all living creatures, robots, and some house plants possess this brainwave. fry does not. Due to "past nastification"

Um actully, you could just score the ordering question differently, by counting number of neighbor-element exchanges needed to get to the right order.

devon calling monsters vs aliens a good movie feels very validating

"What is a God to a none believer !: 😂

I don’t know if I’ve ever wanted to buzz in harder than when you played the Duck Tales moon theme.

"That's not how number systems work" -> But it is how laws building semantically on each other work, should you realize you forgot an overarching one. -> zeroth law of thermodynamics.

Um actually, to say that Geralt has invented his backstory wholesale is incorrect. Geralt was actually knighted by queen Meve, who gave him the official title "of Rivia". So while he did initially make it all up, taking the knight title unofficially, he is *actually* not bullshitting about his title anymore, he is actually knighted "Sir Geralt of Rivia" by the queen of Lyria and Rivia.

I'm just happy that I got the Zeroeth law question correct.

I know it’s been months but watching this for the first time, knowing zilch about The Witcher, I guessed Geralt wasn’t actually from Rivia and immediately celebrated by accidentally punching the wall instead of the air

Um, Actually, Bahamut was called "The Draconian" in Final Fantasy 15, but his appearance was much more akin to a human in dragon-themed equipment, so I feel like that should have been mentioned in the Bahamut question. I also feel like it's a more appropriate answer than a warship in Final Fantasy 12 being named after him, but that's just my take since this was an entity known as Bahamut and not a vehicle.

Um, actually, in the final season of SVTFOE its revealed that mewmans are humans that just stumbled into mewnie, via the realm of magic... But this show might predate that revelation

not even a minute in... before you read the first question you said "this is about indiana jones" i paused it and was like "um actually.. that isn't his real name" XD

Everyone getting the laws of robotics question wrong made me feel kind of unreasonably superior. 🤣🤣🤣

Am I the only one who loves Kim's energy? She's like a cat, super chill and carefree. I like cats.

Um actually, although the title was originally fake, Geralt does become a knight of Rivia after saving the queen in battle.

Since this is a video from most likely more than 2 years ago airing, this might not matter, and possibly someone has already corrected it but: Um actually, according to the US Forest Service, gathering firewood from deadwood IS allowed in all parks and forests with a paid permit or with a free permit unless there are signs in areas that state otherwise, and so long as you follow the guidelines stipulated by the Firewood Guide and Firewood Map of each park and forest which are updated each year.

Um actually, Toffee never terrorize mewnie as part of Ludo's army, he only works for Ludo for the first arch when all of the Ludo's focus is on stealing Star's wand while she is on Earth. Toffee only does miss deeds on mewnie after usurping Ludo

Also, with the Bahamut question: each numbered game is NOT exactly taking place in a seperate world, and I’m not counting any that are “Final Fantasy Number -2” or “Final Fantasy Number : insert subtitle here.” In fact it is heavily implied (by one of the producers that worked on both games as well as 10-2) that Final Fantasy 7 and Final Fantasy 10 share a common world as well.

All these players have great chemistry and energy. What a fun lineup. I don't think I have seen Devon before and I love his vibe. I was feeling his pain on the music questions. Right there with ya buddy! More Devon! Kim is a force to be reckoned with! Deep nerd knowledge and wit to match. More Kim! Tao is... Tao. A paragon of the Gentleman Nerd. A Titan, yet humble. Always more Tao. Ok. Back to the show.

UM ACTUALLY, ratings like King and True God don't apply to the difficulty of a song, they apply to the dancer themselves through the My Groove Radar feature, which has you earning points on your own personal Groove Radar by playing songs that have high rankings on their Groove Radar. Ironically, DDR songs did have canonical named difficulties. Up until 5th Mix, the difficulty rating went from 1 "foot" to 9 "feet", and the levels were named Simple, Moderate, Ordinary, Superior, Marvelous, Genuine, Paramount, Exorbitant, and Catastrophic. These names had disappeared by the time 10-foot songs like MAX 300 appeared, but the Challenge Mode in the Xbox360 release DDR Universe groups its challenges into 10 tiers, with the first nine having those previous name and the tenth tier being called Apocalyptic.

the Star vs. Forces of Evil and Futerama questions had soo many issues

Fun fact, Geralt picked his name as a child, then Years later he by chance helped the queen of Rivia win an important battle and was officially knighted Geralt of Rivia

Ayyyyyw lets go!! Time for my weekly ritual !

um actually, banette does ahve an evolution, but it is mega banette, not shuppet, as shuppe evolves into banette. additionally, drifloon does not drag children to the underworld, the children merely disappear after being dragged off, or in one pokedex entry, they are taken to the afterlife, but not the underworld. the pokemon responsible for taking people to the underworld is dusknoir.

Thank you for winning on an I just went camping question! Everyone should go and experience camping. Pitch a tent, build a fire, roast marshmallows while camping!!

Um actually, I don’t think “Banette has no evolution” is a strictly incorrect statement. Banette cannot evolve (unless Megas are new evolutions) so it has no evolution, whether it evolves FROM anything has no affect on whether it has an evolution.

Just logged into Dropout for the first time in over a year I signed up when it came out to support you guys but kinda figured it would fail, but I see there are 2 more seasons of this I havn't seen, glad to see it is still working.

I completely forgot about Banette's pre-evolved form, Shuppet, but I did remember that Banette had a mega evolution, and I thought that was going to be the correct answer.

Everyone forgets that his is not only his own grandfather he is his brothers grandfather and there for the ancestors to the Professor.

Um actually, in Final Fantasy XIV Bahamut is also not a dragon and is in fact a primal. Primals are constructs of concentrated aether made manifest by the will of the summoner in the form of legendary figures or mythical creatures. In the case of the Bahamut we see in game he is a simulacra of the real Bahamut created centuries ago when the real Bahamut and died and the original dragon brood was tricked into summoning him as a way to resurrect him. We never see the original Bahamut in game.

Um actually, when you say a pokemon has an evolution it refers to what it can evolve Into, not what it evolved from. Therefore the phrase "Banette has no evolution" is correct as Banette can only mega evolve and not go through a permanent evolution into another pokemon

Graboids, yeah! We need more Tremors questions

the start of one winged angel is iconic

I love Devon he’s so supportive!

So happy to see Scorcher in my favourite game show.

Kim not only won the game but had the best joke with her Watch the Throne reference!

Bannette's only evolution is Mega Bannette. Shuppet is it's pre-evolution form.

Um actually, while most numbered FF games are unrelated, there are more than a few that take place in the same world. FF 12 is part of Ivalice as is FF14, and 15 takes place in the same universe as 13

Um, actually, you say all the Final Fantasy games are separate universes, but VII and X are the same world, with a vast amount of time between them. If we believe FFIV: the After Years, the first six games at least are the same universe.

Um, actually, Banette not only evolves from Shuppet, it also has a mega evolution.

um actually, Driftloon doesnt drag children into the underworld, it carries them high into the sky and to their nest high up on mountains and stuff
