Fun fact: In french the black augurite is directly called obsidienne

The Wyrdeer discussion reminds me of some of encounters I've had with rattle snakes in Arizona. Some people like to think that rattle snakes are choosing to be more quiet around humans because if they rattle then they might get hurt or die, but they could also not be rattling because they are used to humans being around and don't see them as something to warn off. Like when we moved out to a new area where new homes were being built, the snakes would always rattle. But after two decades I think the snakes have adapted to human's presence and are more laid back. Like I've walked by one and didn't notice it until my third time walking past the area of the yard, but it stayed out of the foot path and kept to itself. So it didn't feel threatened and didn't feel like causing a fuss. So there can always be more reasons for changes in animal behaviors after being exposed to humans for prolonged periods of time.

Now that I'm thinking about it; Arceus is just choosing a side in the Trolly problem Either they don't bring the trainer back, causing humans to keep their distrust of Pokémon, letting Giritina take revenge on Arceus in some form, and allowing the time rift to remain a problem all to keep these regional variants around Or they intervene, allowing humans and Pokémon to come together as one, stopping Giritina from taking revenge, and sealing the time rift, with the side effect of allowing human civilization to flourish causing the downfall of a few of these regional variants and their environments Does Arceus pull the lever or not?

It’s interesting that Arceus would keep this up. This game’s Manaphy side quest implies that you exist in a time loop or propagate this history throughout the multiverse. The only reason why you could solve the Sea’s Legend at all is because you read about the story in the future, and then stories were told of your exploits in the past after you completed the first Pokedex. You were reading about your own adventure in the Canalave Library. Basically, Arceus would rather sacrifice Hisuian Pokemon if it means protecting himself and the world from the very real threat of Volo. Every timeline. Every universe.

I feel like the voltorb one could be wrong. considering we can farm apercots, I don't think that we would ever run out. I think that pokeballs got more modern and voltorbs pokeball impersonation got less and less convincing, so it got noticed more and became less efficient. then it slowly evolved over time to match the pokeballs that were being improved on.

Arceus sent us back but I think volo forced his hand because he used giratina to open the space time rift. Rather Arceus knew this or his hand was forced so he brings you into the past

Rather than the really 'you are bad trainer!' conclusion, it could instead by Arceus sends us (as the trainer) back to advert the timeline where humans and pokemon come into full conflict with one side destroying the other, or mutually assured destruction.

I guess from Arceus' perspective there's two ways this can go. Poke Balls already exist by the time you get there. People already have Pokemon. Entire teams even. Humans are expanding. They're going to different regions and seeing what is what. Not particularly well, but they are expanding. Either Arceus leaves things be where people hate and fear Pokemon. Or it sends back someone who knows Pokemon are friends, and that person is able to at least dampen some of the damage by allowing more people see that there isn't a reason to fear Pokemon. That they are friends, and can be helpful, and they share the world too. It's not perfect, but maybe it lays the groundwork for less damage to be done.

This is a bootstrap paradox, it was going to happen anyway, the protag just introduced it sooner than before, plus with the time distortions, pokemon from the future also started appearing much earlier than discovered like the other Eeveelutions. With a higher biodiversity than before, the world of Legends could take drastic deviations from the world of Pokémon before. Also, with the Pokemon becoming friends far earlier than human industrialization, we can adapt better methods of cohabitating to avoid extinction events. Better more efficient methods which have a significant environmental footprint than the timeline previous. Arceus was playing a mega brain game of chess and just went back to change one move or add another piece and cheat the timeline of events, bringing one child with a love of pokemon early enough to change the future of pokemon forever. His journey making sure to put him into a position of respect to have the power to make the changes necessary for his and future generations.

This Theory is plausible but considering how evolution works for pkmn,it's not too weird for a species to change form to adapt to modern conditions. Also the games only showcase regions,not the countries or massive continents in their entirety. Like how similar but different Johto was to Kanto.

If the player character would have left things be, Volo would have overthrown Arceus and killed all pokemon.

Electrode gave up the grass to go boom tbh massive upgrade instead of dying and exploding into pieces it kills everyone by blowing up into many pieces

Thank you Pat for helping out this small youtuber get attention!

Hm, while I’ll can see where he is coming from, if the Protagonist hadn’t done anything, who would’ve handled the Space-Time Rift?

If arceus would not send you in past, our universe could be collapsed. Arceus saw what was coming and desided to sacrifise those pokemon and let universe live

"I think we should poach the poachers" -Patterz ( 2022 )

So lets say the theory is correct, in the pokemon world it is established humans can marry/mate with pokemon making humans in that world related to pokemon. So hear me out...Arceus sends someone back to teach humans in the past that they don't have to be afraid of pokemon. This then allows humans to progress and improve quality of life for humans and pokemon if you think about it. Sure we lost 25 hisuan variations, but how many pokemon evolved/created since humans expanded. This includes digital pokemon like porygon, certain steel types, poison types, etc... So my theory is Arceus wanted someone else to become the care taker of the world, and who better than a species who are setient enough to do so. Now it's not a perfect plan, but I think Arceus made a system for pokemon to continuously increase or get created... and he needed a catalyst, being humans. Pokemon started looking like human made items right? sooooooo in the end Pokemon as a whole had a continuous way to keep surviving in the world thanks to humans ingenuity. Now it's not a perfect system, but it allowed continous growth for both human and pokemon alike.

The person who does the Pokedex voice in the video is actually Mattpatt's head editor Dan. He has a yt channel of his own

18:00 Omnipotent means all powerful. The word you meant to use there is omniscient, all knowing.

"Hunted the quilfish to extinction" My brain: with what pokemon, magikarp.

Reminder: Growlithe is one of the Swarm or PokeRadar Pokemon on Route 201 or 202

Scyther no longer had the ability to evolve Scizor: Am I a joke to you

Other KZfaqrs reacting to a merch ad in a video: Skips the ad Patterrz: Watched the ENTIRE ad and adds on to it

"how do you live in water and not know how to swim" seaweed seems to manage fine

hey at least the change from hisuian zorua/zoroark to normal zorua/zoroark has good implications.

Due to Regigigas pokedex entry we know the game takes place 200-300 years beforehand. Regigigas was sealed 500 yrs ago in modern day. In legends over 200 years ago he was sealed away

No, that’s not a theory. “Yamask” (or however you write that), is in fact a dead person who carries their face around! It is stated in one of the Pokédex entries as far as I remember. Driftloon is a balloon Pokémon that kidnaps children! There’s also the ghost tree-stump Pokémon, who are deceased children who got lost in the woods!

I thought the website said people plug up voltorbs hole so it stoped shooting seeds, so the exploded.

How do you live in water and be a poor swimmer ? I mean, sea horses are a thing. Also real Puffers are poor swimmer, and that's why they have the spikes for protection.

Technically you could argue the protagonist literally had no choice because the people of Hisui were clear. If the player could not hold up their end of effort they will be sent back to the wild left to most likely die

Pat... you didn't know Obsidian was real? XD

It is so “human” and funny how. He went full “it’s not our fault, god send is back in time. It is god’s fault!” Right away. We have such tendencies to shift blame, it kinda make sense why we “would” hunt species into extinction

I remember a Kalos npc that pointed it's strange that Kalos pokemon are only in Kalos while Unovan pokemon are both in Unova and Kalos

“When you evolve your supposed to get better adapted” Say that to peppers.

“Can you IMAGINE a world where we’re ALL represented by a FONT?”

It's a neat theory, I just find it really funny that it completely falls apart if Hisuian Forms are available in Scarlet/Violet.

"How do you live in water and be a poor swimmer?" Seahorse: *sweating nervously*

I always hoped the Pokemon that attack is in the Wild like battling anyway, so is fighting with them is fine.

You should check out "Pokemon Legendary Bytes" by Man on the Internet The team added lyrics to some iconic Legendary themes

The fact that ursaluna, basculegion, hisuian arcanine, overqwil, and kleavor are no longer extinct because of the teal mask and indigo disk

Alright, screw calling Ho-oh "Phoenix" or "Embertross" or any of the sorts, Hydroperox is what I will be going for now! Edit: For anyone seeing bots... please report them, I have scrolled through the whole Comment section to report them all but where there is one, I know there will be more.

well, since Arceus is god and created the entire universe and shet, it kinda makes sense, like, he's not evil, he's neutral, he created and helps both humans and pokemons, he's imparcial, so i wouldn't be surprised if he was the one who set up an human extintion on some region where humans are kinda of jerks XD

I like it when Patterrz reacts and he doesn't make a dumb joke every 10 seconds this time . Very refreshing

My name is Pat Jensen and I’m here to say, I run MorePatterrz every day! I qualified for Worlds but I don’t have dinner, I’m the Mongolian voice for Seymour Skinner!

Theory: It was inevitable for these pokemon to go extinct, so Arceus sent us back in time not only to save the region from Giratina, but to be able to bring Hisuian pokemon back in the future with S/V home compatibility.

Fun fact: For anyone who watched demon slayer the Insect pillar has a gold fish named fugu which is a direct Easter Easter egg to the poisonous fish and how they use poison to slay demons

Explain Enamorous, then. The legendary exclusive to Legends Arceus. The one ‘new’ Pokémon in that game to not be a Regional Form or Evolution.

But maybe the growlithe,voltorbs or qwilfish just evolved,like birds,birds evolved from dinosaurs,but you can't find dinosaurs anymore,right?So I personally think they just evolved. Note:the evolution is not the pokemon evolution I'm talking about.

8:00 That would be VO Theorist Editor Dan

I think that hissuian growlith could have been the selectively bred into modern growlith, wyrdeer would probably just be shorn like sheep instead of killed and just forgot how to use it over time, and hissuian voltorb in the pokedex said that they would fire off seeds and get would get the hole on top of its head pluged and kick out of town, also pokeballs need the aprocorn SHELLS not the internal parts, like the seeds, even though we don't see aprocorns in the wild in modern sinnoh, that just means that they could be deeper in the wilds and in farms.

I like these videos when Pat tries to hype up the ads because he knows content creators need to eat.

My theory is that gamefreak wanted to add new pokemon to there first open world game

Girantina: And Ya'll call me the bad guy. FU DAD!👿

I actually have a small piece of obsidian.

How the indigo disk thrown all of this out the window.😅

They should have a pokemon legends eternatus where its old galar and you experience the darkest day

18:57 then Volo would've succeeded in his plan, and recreate the World

2:28 Yeah, about that What's with the 4 gen recently First a remake of the gen 4 games and then a new game in the same region?

Maybe the pokeballs made out of voltorb came to life as modern voltorb. It would match with pokedex entries, like Ruby says it was first discovered in a factory that produced pokeballs. Maybe they were pokeballs made out of the wooden voltorb

The thing is that some pokemon may have evolved, and with that i dont mean individual evolution, but adaptation, like vulpix and ninetales in alola We dont know how fast that works in the pokemon world, maybe an species can change completely within a millennia or some hundreds of years (i mean, their physical body goes throught a whole changing body within seconds as individuals, pokemon adapt MUCH, MUCH faster than humans)

"Congratulations! You are killing Pokémon! - Woo hoo! Yeah, let's go!"

Those poor Hisuian Pokémon. Lost to the addles of time.😭

17:55, I think the word you seek is omniscient.

Pretty interesting video! If you want a good amount of content and if you like the assassins creed franchise you should see if you can react to the patient wolfs videos covering the story of the assassins creed games and breaking it all down.

10:34 guy forgets what a puffer fish is

3000 years back

“I thought that was just minecraft” naw cuz i acc thought this as well and said it to the teacher once, they just googled it and showed me and i’m like “the what” so uhh… patterz i’m with ya buddy

I hope the next Legend Pokemon game is put in Union region but I like to see the Legendary Dragon.

Hey patterz, you should react to more of matpats Pokémon theories if you haven’t already seen them

Yes patterz poach the poachers, harvest the 'lower' horn.

“The saber tooth tiger isn’t extinct there are still tigers in some countries” -Patterz, probably

The problem is that Giratina and Volo were causing problems. If you didn’t do anything, the world would be fucked by a rampaging Dialga/Palkia or Giratina would still be scheming to do a Team Galactic.

Hisuian decidueye isn't actually a pokemon that just exists in hisui, right? Since the only way to get it is from alola or a dimensional rift

Hmm yes, in red and blue, Charizard was hunted out of being able to fly

Liked for the logical conclusion lmao

Not all of them can be dead, in one of the scarlet and violet trailers there was a Hisuian Zoroark (I'm pretty sure there was at least)

MatPat: It's OUR fault!! Me: I mean....there's a reason his name is pronounced: Arse-He-Is....

And now, all the extinct pokemon are available to the trainer in the future though. That's why they have pokemon home access

Arceus: "Time for a culling of my people's (Pokemon) masses"

I love these reaction videos to Mattar so amazing

I love how you tried your best to be a hype man through the ad but matt just kept on going

I feel like ursaluna could still exist for one major reason....who is gonna give their ursaring some clay during a full moon?

wouldn't it be Volo and Giratina's fault for making Arceus feel the need to put a stop to them?

Wait is this the guy who also talks about food channel 😆😆😆🤣🤣😂🤣

18:51 basically any isekai anime

Drifloon doesn't just kidnap kids it takes them to the afterlife soooooo yeah

But there was an Ursuluna in Kitakami lol

POKEMON VICTINI: Stopping the industrial revolution.

Who else thought obsidian was just from minecraft

3:58 well if someone said that they are right hisuian zoroark is in paldea

dog breeds can change over 100 years the funny thing that most modern dog breed are only 200 years or younger. Growlithe is still around so his theory is kind of bunk since most of the pokemon are still around

Wasn't dialga going to nuke everyone anyway?

Hummus are also the only creature the needs money to live on the planet

We did see Hisuian Zoroark in Paldea

Wait, stantler evolved to not evolve?

maybe sinnoh's history is meant to happen this way and arceus is just just doing this because it is how it was meant to unfold but if the protag was from the same world as the rest of the pokemon series and not the another world as the mega evolution world why not just let dialga do it unless it is that important or because dialga cant speak or use telepathy as arceus can

MatPat forgets that 'evolution' (Darwinian evolution, not pokemon evolution) exists

The yamask one isnt even a theory XD its in many of its dex entries

Prediction selective breeding we turned wolves into pugs so

1:18 The Yamask one is established with the Pokédex. Not a theory.
