The Complete Ecology of the Kanto Region

We live in a VAST world of animals that shape the environment and are SHAPED by the environment they live in

But what happens when we give a wild dog the power to breathe fire
Add in a rampaging sea monster only heard of in legends
And metallic creatures that absorb and release electricity at will?
You get the wild and vast world of Pokemon!

And I’m here to explain to YOU how these Pokemon interact with each other and why they live in these environments through

my brother you just doomed yourself to make this a full saga now

In Dugtrio's defense, flavor isn't in the stomach. If I had 2 other heads and someone brought cake out, I don't care that I have a shared stomach. I want the cake.

If this becomes a series it’ll go CRAZY when we get to Hoenn. Deserts, rainforests, Shoal Cave, Mt. Pyre, etc.

I don’t always subscribe to a content creator for one video;
But when I do, it’s a 3hrs 22 minutes of ecological analysis of Kanto.

Happy that this video dropped on my suggestions

Alright buddy. Maybe a slight hiccup in your thinking about Gyrados and Snorlax. What if they're ecological necessities? Hear me out. Vegetation seems to rapidly grow in the Pokemon world. Sometimes a tree can go from Sprout to Fully Bearing Fruit in less than a day. To the point where you can freely pick any fruit you see, it's encouraged seemingly country wide wherever you are in the world, and any seed will sprout into a new tree. Maybe the massive amount of food those Pokemon eat is only like a drop in the bucket to a world that seems tailor made to regrow anything lost and then some.

I would think that when talking about the ecology of the Kanto region, the ecology of the Johto region should also be taken into account because the regions have a shared ecology and a shared border line that doesn't prevent Pokemon from moving between regions as shown in the games. In addition, in this regard, we should decide and define whether only the Gen1 and Gen2 original creature rosters are taken into account or whether the Pokemon added in the remakes are also taken into account. And this video does that very well.

1:32:00 fun fact, in some cases, like with sodium metal/rocks, water WILL actually cause it to go boom, it's considered extremely reactive, fun to watch videos of it
So my guess is Graveller actually has compact sodium deposits in its body

Only a minute in and already it's clear how much your content has improved in the short time I've been watching; you come off as heaps more confident and comfortable on camera than you seemed in your previous videos and it's amazing to see!

Just in time for me to sleep to and then rewatch in the morning, let’s go!!!!

@jayg9283 2 years ago

Hey man, YouTube recommended this video to me. Your channel is way smaller than I expected it to be based on the quality of the video!

This was a great watch, and I’d be thrilled to watch you do this again for other regions.

You deserve your channel to grow immensely, with this high level of quality in the video, truly enjoyed your breakdowns.

Please continue to make these videos, you have earned a new fan

I think my favorite parts are the picture painting. When Japan makes pokémon real, this will be People's first resource in establishing the real pokémon should be distributed

This is why I’m making a fantasy world where elves evolved from birds and dwarves from groundhogs.

Ecology + Fantasy is just an amazing thing to explore

The Drowzee tangent is part of why I enjoy what you do 👍🏾

@lewisspringthorpe-dean5318 2 years ago

My own theory for this world we call Pokemon is how evolution affects the eco-system. (I’m writing this pretty early on in the video so unsure if it’s touched upon):

My theory goes for Pokemon which eat both other Pokemon and vegetation (say Pidgey) would mostly have to feed on vegetation and only one or two would go the other way which would make them more likely to evolve becoming the protectors of there group. For an example, Pidgeotto is rare in viridian forest and has more prey with the numerous bugs available. Which is why it’s rare to find fully evolved Pokemon like Pidgeot in the wild.

There is a video of the dude who are in that courts cave talking about how if they were to breathe the air for too long it would boil their lungs because of the heat and moisture

@MrSethAndrew 1 year ago

This is really great helping with my book I’m writing! Helps me explain why certain Pokemon are where and how the landscape is shaped! Great job!

@nikkaz1950 1 year ago

Galar is going to be crazy when the wild area is taken into account, especially how each raid den has its own distribution of pokemon. How do dynamax and gigantamax pokemon play into ecology lol

Possibly drowsy pulls dreams out with its nose and still has to chew the dreams? Assuming the dreams pulled have a weight and are somehow magically contained in a miasma like orb? 🤷‍♀️
