Have you ever wondered why Pokemon has so many dog Pokemon? Ever since Pokemon Red and Blue they've always been there, barking away like those dog memes. But now... why the HECK did Game Freak add SIX entire new basic dog Pokemon in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? There has to be a reason right? Well in this video let's go over each of them and then try to answer that question!

Fun theory time: One of reasons for the 3 Dogs, is because they are also inspired by the rhyme "Rub-a-Dub-Dub". Where the 3 main characters are the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker. Masschiff looks like a hot dog and Mabosstiff's tough look/jaws could tie in with the butcher. Daschbun line being bread is the baker and the Houndstone line being connected to tallow and candles would make it the candlestickmaker.

I'm surprised that, for Greavard and Houndstone, you didn't mention the sheer *abundance* of ghost dogs present in Spanish mythology. The Pesanta and the Dip from Catalonia and the Urco from Galicia and Asturias are some examples of this. Many of these ghostly dogs are said to be big, black and intimidating, so maybe they played a role in Mabosstif's design too. The Inugami, or spiritual possession of a dog in Japanese folklore, is also worth mentioning I think.

Mabostiff is definitely my favorite, not just because of the design and story in the games themselves. But the breed the dog is based on gives me happy memories of a Mastiff I had as a family dog, who’s mind out lasted her body. And while that’s sad, I see a small amount of her in Mabostiff

the key words are "it is said", in other words they are essentially saying "we have been told this story but we can't necessarily verify it as 100% accurate". Also, it doesn't say that that's how every single Greavard came about, just that there's a story that goes around of how this is the origin of one Greavard. It's the same with the kid that woke up being transformed into a Kadabra or whatever that dex entry was, it's not saying that every Kadabra ever is a kid that's been transformed, it's simply stating that it's just one particular notable instance.

Like ypu said, Dachsbun in German basically translates to "baked dog". And I'm here to explain the names of the other dog Pokémon. Fidough's name in German is "Hefel" which pulls from "Hefe", the German word for yeast and "Dackel" (Dachshund), "hecheln" (panting) or "Welpe" (Puppy). Maschiff's name is a combination of mob anf mastiff. Mabosstiff's name also pulls from mastiffs and mastifioso. Greavard's German name is "Gruff" anf consist out of "Gruft", German for tomb and "wuff" the sound that dogs make in the German language. Houndstone's German name, Friedwuff is a combination of "Friedhof", the German word for graveyard and "Wuff" again. Also, something about the (German) pronpunciation of "Dachshund": The "Dachs" part would be pronounced like the "ducks". I don't really have a good English word to compare to the "hund" part of the word. It's like "hunt" but the 'u' is more pronounced like a double o. Either way, you can look up the correct pronounciation of Dachshund. And also, please Lockstin, make a video about explaining German Pokémon names.

One thing that i noticed was that it wasn't only dachsbun's breed that had connection/roots with Germany Dachsbun's breads, replacing his ears, are based on the Vianinha/Viana Portuguese bread variant that had inspiration on the original Vienna or Kaiser rolls from Germany. The Vianinha variant is more faithful to the buns Dachsbun has on it's his ears, while the original Viena roll has a spiral cut in the middle of the bun, that more closely resembles Fidough's ears. Both are different but, in their own ways, they are trying to cut/create a shape of a flower in the bread. Thought it was an interesting thing to point out.

My favorite would be the Fidough line, they are cute, I like both forms in their line mostly equally, I love how well Fairy type fits them since they help with farming crops, smell nice, and are dough that are usually made into treats which fits the cutesy/positive feels of fairy types, and I love how it feels the most fitting when it comes to it’s transition from first form into evolution going from little dough pup into big capable bread hound!

Mabosstiff must be my favorite of all the canine Pokémon. I love big dogs and I cannot lie, especially “scary” dogs like mastiffs and pitbulls, because in spite of common misconception, big scary dogs are some of the best behaved. After all, when you have a bad reputation you need to do whatever you can to make yourself look good to others. Hence why I like that Mabosstiff is a big scary Dark type dog that’s a big ol’ sweetheart that will only hurt a fly if said fly is six feet tall and can fire poison lasers from its deadly stinger. Plus Maschiff gives off a Big Pittie Energy, which I enjoy thoroughly. Even Greavard don’t mean to hurt people, and presumably they learn to control their soul sapping ability as Houndstone because all they want to be is good doggies.

I have a few dogs of my own and honestly, all of the Paldea Doggos remind me of them. We have a Golden Retriever puppy that looks like Dachsbun, a Pyrenees Mountain Dog mix that is the spiting image of Mabosstiff (I love her so much) and... and an older dog... who isn't feeling too good... That aside, I really like all the new dogs, especially Mabosstiff. Even though it's supposed to be this mean, mafia mastiff, it's my kinda dog: lovable where it counts, powerful when it needs to be and will follow you to a wherever you go. Also, Arven's story broke me, because having a sick or hurt doggo is probably one of the saddest feelings a human can have. On Arceus, Arven deserves every happiness, every good thing. Good on him for never giving up on his good boy, who never gave up on him.

Thanks for mentioning the German name of Dachsbun. Hefel (Fidough) and Backel are my favorites of the new dog Pokémon. Maybe of all dog Pokémon in general. I am also in love with all these details. I died of cuteness when my Fidough evolved and its name is helping me out getting through my work. My co-worker who is also a Pokémon fan said I should take out the Dachsbun because they were well baked. I named my Dachsbun "Hermann" which is a dough it grows thanks to their yield and bacteria and you can pass them to a friend or neighbor who also can feed the dough to make it grow and you can make a yummy cake of the Hermann Teig and you can still save some dough or pass it again. I rather baked my Hermann. I got a Fidough caught in a rare ball so I bred a Shiny an traded the other dogs away with the fitting nickname.

Hey you forgot a huge bit of inspiration that connects the three lines together, and that’s the folktale of “The Black Dog”. This spirit is described as a big dog with black shaggy fur, and depending on the region of Europe (and or the USA) you’re hearing the folktale from “The Black Dog” is depicted as one of these three entities: 1.) The fairy-dog (Fidough) 2.) A demonic hellhound (Maschiff) 3.) Or a peaceful spirit dog (Grevard)
