[PL:A] The Plates of Firespit Island, Moonview Arena, Snowpoint Temple, and Everywhere Else (Ft. Dr. Michael LeVine) #202

[00:00:00] . Hello and welcome to Experian Share. My name is Girithanner. Giratina. I have to scroll

[00:00:16] up in the notes. AKA Santa Greenring. Beautiful name joined as always, but my co-host,

[00:00:20] Reggie Gash. Not as beautiful. Reggie Gash. Reggie G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G

[00:00:50] None of them are slugs. Uh, that's not true. Presently is definitely a suck. Oh, well, uh, I have

[00:00:57] accounted for that that we'll get to, but I will also say... Yes. I'm proud to announce that we

[00:01:02] will have an actual slug scientist on the program. The slug scientist... It's taken weeks and weeks.

[00:01:11] He's a busy man. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of slugs. And he's like a trading card pro.

[00:01:18] Yeah, he is a Magic the Gathering champ professional player. Does that on the site, along with some

[00:01:25] other science I presume, but you know, predominantly the study of slugs, I think is my... Yeah, I'm

[00:01:31] really hoping to get down to brass tax with him. Yeah, I won't reveal who it is, but I feel like

[00:01:37] I've met him and I would... Would I describe him as a slug scientist? Hmm.

[00:01:45] Not in a million years, but I mean... Well, he's got a lot of acolytes here. Happy to see what his credentials are.

[00:01:51] It's hard to when I did the outreach for the slug scientist. I was like, you're that's uh,

[00:01:57] that's something you can do, right? Like I can't really keep track of all your PhDs and all these

[00:02:03] different certifications that he has. He was ready and willing to talk about slugs, so that's

[00:02:09] definitely part of it. All of us... I need another co-host who's ready and willing to talk about slugs.

[00:02:15] I am ready and willing to talk about slugs. Yeah, well... That's my thing! I can't believe

[00:02:20] you bring in someone else. It's just like... You know what? Malcolm Gladwell said,

[00:02:25] you spent 10,000 hours doing something and you're an expert at it. And you think I've... I haven't

[00:02:30] got picked up my Switch lately, but I think I've put 10,000 hours into this game. You think

[00:02:34] basically 10,000. Maybe if you took all of the Pokemon games, although I don't know unless you were

[00:02:41] just secretly doing that because it's sort of like a six-sense view. I don't think so. I think

[00:02:44] it's like... I think it's like 60 to like 80 hours we've spent per game. Yeah, I think that's about

[00:02:51] right. We're gonna get into... There's a lot of slug action this. Let's not blow our slug

[00:02:55] wand too early because we've got a lot to talk about this week. Joshua, we are stuck in...

[00:03:06] Sorry!

[00:03:09] We had to do it. We had to do it. It's the last episode of the season and old his...

[00:03:14] Oh yeah, we're not chasing waterfalls. I still don't have waterfalls. We've sort of been chasing them

[00:03:19] for... There are a lot of waterfalls actually. The biggest waterfalls in any Pokemon game I've ever

[00:03:23] seen, but we can't actually climb them, chase them. I got really sick of the Hesuy and Breviary

[00:03:31] call because I was just flying around so much. Oh, shit! I haven't tried calling Hesuy and Breviary

[00:03:37] since my flute turned into a different flute. Does it still work? It still works. Okay, thank goodness.

[00:03:43] Yeah. That's interesting though. You know, you wouldn't... You'd think it'd be like a dog whistle

[00:03:48] and they could only hear that one specific tone. And if the structure of the flute...

[00:03:51] They hear that one specific racist tweet. Yeah, that's what Breviary responds to.

[00:03:58] Joshua Sobby's got some problematic opinions. You take one look at her in her clairvoyance. She's

[00:04:04] like the Marianne Williamson of Pokemon. There's obviously a lot to talk about. Let's focus up. I want

[00:04:11] to talk about the final few plates and then we'll get into our request ranking for the week. Okay,

[00:04:17] probably could have split it up a little bit better. Yeah, we're so bad at this.

[00:04:21] We just like look at the list of like chapter like mission head titles and we're like, I don't know

[00:04:27] there's like a good place to start for. That's probably good. Little did we know that seeking

[00:04:32] the remaining plates is like kind of a whole other thing. Most of the plates? Fucking idiots.

[00:04:37] All right, focus up. We have plates to get. The first one is in the hands of

[00:04:44] Mellie. I think I think you can do them in any order. I'm curious to see how you approach you.

[00:04:49] I think I will. You can accept for you can't accept for snowboard.

[00:04:53] Because I tried doing that.

[00:04:56] To be the last one. Yeah, because you need all the other parts.

[00:04:59] So I did fire spit island. I basically did it. I don't think I really had this planned out,

[00:05:05] but I happened to basically do all of these in the order of chasing the massive mass outbreaks.

[00:05:11] So I had to go to the Cobalt coastlands next to also tackle those with my.

[00:05:17] And so I also did fire spit island. You want to start there? Yeah, sure.

[00:05:21] You have something to say about fire spit island. Who's out here?

[00:05:25] Which of those rascals was out here? Well, the Lord is there.

[00:05:30] Lord Arcanine and I got tricked into fighting him again.

[00:05:35] What? I don't know if you did this.

[00:05:38] I don't think so.

[00:05:39] Well, you apparently can rematch all of the lords of the arenas if you want.

[00:05:48] I don't really know why you would want.

[00:05:50] But I went there and I guess I would have been talked to that lady.

[00:05:54] Yeah, I talked to a Lena.

[00:05:56] Lena. She hates being called Lena.

[00:05:58] And you know what the weirdest part about them?

[00:06:00] Her being there too is what when you walk around the corner to go into the cave to fight

[00:06:06] the craze Pokemoner about to talk about. Yeah.

[00:06:09] It is like, oh sorry, Lena couldn't be here.

[00:06:12] She had something important to do back at like the like diamond clan HQ.

[00:06:16] And you can like literally walk like five steps away and see her.

[00:06:19] Right.

[00:06:20] Yeah, I guess I took a wrong turn and wasn't paying enough attention to the map

[00:06:25] because it does make it look like, oh, I have to go through the arena in order to get to the new cave.

[00:06:30] And as a result, I had to fight fucking Arcanine again.

[00:06:34] And then I realized, oh, I could have just gone the other way.

[00:06:37] He's like, he feels like he's really native to this place now, you know?

[00:06:42] To his zoo.

[00:06:43] Yeah, it's after a bad time.

[00:06:45] We can't do it anymore.

[00:06:46] I can.

[00:06:47] I mean, don't do it so loud that it would come through my headphones and wake miles up,

[00:06:51] probably like blow my head up.

[00:06:53] Well, I don't want that.

[00:06:55] Who's in here?

[00:06:55] Headless co-hosts.

[00:06:57] So on the other side if you go the right way,

[00:07:00] you go into the cave and there's a heat ran.

[00:07:04] Well, first it's Irita and he's scammed.

[00:07:07] Oh, yeah, you're right.

[00:07:09] Sorry.

[00:07:10] Believe that.

[00:07:10] Uh, Irita is fussy about the heat.

[00:07:15] Yeah, she doesn't like it.

[00:07:17] It's too hot for her.

[00:07:18] I'll tell you what, too hot for Doug too.

[00:07:21] I think it would be too hot for a slug.

[00:07:23] If it's too hot for a slug, it's too hot for Doug.

[00:07:26] Oh, good.

[00:07:28] You just had that one waiting in the canister.

[00:07:30] Yeah, it's sort of a hit factory up there.

[00:07:33] Yeah.

[00:07:34] Iskahn seems fine.

[00:07:36] I don't remember his deal.

[00:07:37] No, I felt neutral about Iskahn.

[00:07:40] Who was he?

[00:07:41] He gave us um, the bear.

[00:07:44] No, no, it's the Baskillesian guy.

[00:07:46] The very timid guy.

[00:07:50] Yeah, but they're in this cave as a big dumb heat ran.

[00:07:53] Not a slug, not interested.

[00:07:54] Killed it.

[00:07:55] Yeah, for some reason you have to, you have to hook mud balls at it to break down a barrier

[00:08:01] that it has.

[00:08:02] Yeah, it took, took me far too long to figure that out.

[00:08:05] Just like throwing my poke balls at it and running away.

[00:08:08] I was, let me alone.

[00:08:10] I was purely in the red like one more hit.

[00:08:13] I was going to die when I got like the last mud ball off on it.

[00:08:17] And then you just fight it.

[00:08:17] Yeah, normal.

[00:08:18] Well, they, they hinted pretty hard because there's the,

[00:08:21] his like little den is like literally there's like 30 on the ground.

[00:08:26] Yeah, you can't miss them.

[00:08:28] So yeah, it's a pretty easy puzzle to figure out.

[00:08:30] And then you can kill or catch heat ran.

[00:08:33] We'll obviously be releasing it, but um,

[00:08:36] we have to catch it because I know it's coming.

[00:08:40] We have to catch all the Pokemon.

[00:08:42] We have to try the very best like I whenever has.

[00:08:45] Let's see guagaboo guobaboo.

[00:08:51] Is what that's he train.

[00:08:53] He trans.

[00:08:54] Well, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

[00:08:56] I took a photo of that too.

[00:08:57] It's not quite as cute as um, Arceus.

[00:09:01] Dialga.

[00:09:01] Yeah.

[00:09:03] I don't remember what it was.

[00:09:04] We can all find it in the previous episode and put it in here.

[00:09:12] What's next?

[00:09:14] Catch the heat ran.

[00:09:15] We're out of here.

[00:09:15] Jets.

[00:09:16] Where'd you go next?

[00:09:17] What was next on your agenda?

[00:09:18] Well, next you were chasing the big outbreaks.

[00:09:22] Yeah.

[00:09:23] Next I tried to do Snowboy Temple.

[00:09:26] And if you go down there,

[00:09:29] the door only reacts to certain plates

[00:09:32] and I didn't have the last one.

[00:09:33] So I was like, oh, okay.

[00:09:35] Get out of here, Josh.

[00:09:36] You think a reggae geek is going to respond

[00:09:38] to your puny little plate collection?

[00:09:41] I guess not.

[00:09:42] Get bent.

[00:09:42] Let's go to moonveerina.

[00:09:44] Moonveerina.

[00:09:45] This is where we fought um, Lilygant last time, I think.

[00:09:48] No, no, no.

[00:09:49] This is frenzied electrode because you know why?

[00:09:53] You know why I know that?

[00:09:55] Why?

[00:09:56] Because Mellie is here.

[00:09:57] Smellie-mellie.

[00:09:58] Oh god.

[00:09:59] And he goes on a rant about like,

[00:10:02] oh, I miss my precious Lord electrode.

[00:10:05] It's keeping me up at night to not know where he is

[00:10:08] and he's like clutching his chest.

[00:10:09] And then he says,

[00:10:12] wait, where is it?

[00:10:13] Why didn't it come back?

[00:10:14] The Cresselia, the so-called,

[00:10:18] according to you slug that we're going to be fighting pretty soon.

[00:10:21] Yeah.

[00:10:21] Chased it away.

[00:10:22] Cresselia came from the moon?

[00:10:25] I think the moon.

[00:10:26] Yeah, the moon's on the moon.

[00:10:27] The moon's muslims famously have feathers for instance.

[00:10:30] There's a lot of physiology that's a different about moon slugs but

[00:10:34] one of the key things is feathers.

[00:10:35] It's they glide on solar rays.

[00:10:37] Actually, it's how they move around in space and they kind of lock up in like a

[00:10:41] cocoon and that's how they travel in like the vacuumous space.

[00:10:44] Well, you can save that theory for the slug scientist

[00:10:48] because I was going to say,

[00:10:49] it's not a theory.

[00:10:50] I feel like slugs.

[00:10:51] Slugs if our guest is a slug scientist,

[00:10:53] and so am I.

[00:10:54] I was going to wait to talk about our credentials again but we did

[00:10:57] in the other episode talk about how we are very familiar with a lot of

[00:11:01] slimy things growing up.

[00:11:04] Salamanders.

[00:11:04] We did talk about that.

[00:11:06] Slugs frogs.

[00:11:07] So it's not that we're not slug scientists, I would say.

[00:11:12] But I don't have a PhD in slug science.

[00:11:15] Yeah, I don't think anyone on the show tonight is going to have a PhD in slug science.

[00:11:19] Slugology.

[00:11:21] But you were getting ahead of things.

[00:11:23] I wanted to say on the smelly,

[00:11:26] melee issue.

[00:11:27] Yeah, I felt vindicated that when he's going off on

[00:11:30] Cresselia and how she's a nightmare

[00:11:33] and we don't know anything about Pokemon because

[00:11:36] how could you not know what a Cresselia is?

[00:11:38] And it's like, how would I know what a moon slug is?

[00:11:40] Have I been to the moon?

[00:11:42] Yeah.

[00:11:42] And has melee?

[00:11:43] I don't know what God is, melee.

[00:11:45] I wish he'd get blasted to the fucking moon and Leigh and two.

[00:11:48] I wanted to call out the boywarden.

[00:11:51] He takes you aside at one point.

[00:11:53] Yeah, Leigh and Cresselia.

[00:11:54] They're still hanging out.

[00:11:56] Maybe.

[00:11:56] I think they're the worst people club here.

[00:11:58] Maybe, Melee, I might be getting the screenshots mixed up but you do talk to Leigh

[00:12:03] and about Melee on one of these adventures.

[00:12:07] Leigh and his like, I can't let myself be outdone by him.

[00:12:11] And I saw you react to him and I couldn't imagine that it was the case that you liked him.

[00:12:16] I'm sure it was a confused grimace or a smile you merely forced yourself to give him out of pity.

[00:12:23] Wow.

[00:12:23] So I love that the little boywarden also hates melee.

[00:12:27] And probably everybody does that were all mixed up in.

[00:12:31] I mean, I can't really keep track of.

[00:12:32] They're like, he's like probably let the junior

[00:12:35] warden and melee is like the senior warden or fucking whatever this hierarchy is.

[00:12:39] I can do something to hurt my social rank with melee but it improves my social rank with boywarden.

[00:12:49] That seems like dial well gaming that mechanic.

[00:12:53] But in any case, you exchange barbs with melee as usual and as usual,

[00:12:59] melee does nothing to solve the problem and we have to go into the den of the moon slug.

[00:13:05] Yeah.

[00:13:05] And this vindicvalidating me was infuriating the Crisale of situation.

[00:13:13] So you go into its den, all of your controls are inverted.

[00:13:18] So easy.

[00:13:19] It's so easy.

[00:13:20] No, no, that part was manageable for me.

[00:13:22] I was like, oh am I going to have to pick up fucking,

[00:13:24] you know, so fruits roots or something to also like hurl at it but all you have to do is get

[00:13:30] close enough using inverted controls and then throw a Pokemon at it to battle.

[00:13:34] What I hated was I was trying to catch it as we are.

[00:13:39] So I didn't want to just kill it.

[00:13:41] And so I kept using, I was using Luxray as usual with these Pokemon because it's again the only

[00:13:47] one that has a disabling move thunder wave.

[00:13:49] And so I had to just keep using wild charge and then I would throw in like, you know,

[00:13:55] play rough or fucking whatever to whittle it down and then thunder wave

[00:14:00] and I'm like, great.

[00:14:00] Gonna catch it and then it goes lunar blessing and then it recovers like most of its health

[00:14:05] and then it gets obscured.

[00:14:06] So then your moves start missing.

[00:14:08] You're just burn in pp.

[00:14:10] It's using moon light.

[00:14:11] It's using whatever all of its shit is.

[00:14:13] And I think I was in this battle for like 10 minutes because it just kept using lunar

[00:14:18] blessing and it would never get low enough that I could catch it.

[00:14:21] Yeah, the lunar blessing thing was really.

[00:14:23] And then all my moves are missing.

[00:14:25] And I wanted to just strangle the neck.

[00:14:28] I don't know if slugs have neck.

[00:14:29] That's one of the questions we're going to ask.

[00:14:31] But I wanted to strangle the neck on this thing which I assert is not a slug because it has

[00:14:37] lunar feathers.

[00:14:38] Do you think they do strangle it?

[00:14:39] It'll just grow a new neck.

[00:14:40] They don't have feathers, I think.

[00:14:43] We'll have to ask the slug scientist.

[00:14:45] Did you also have moon scientist?

[00:14:47] We're going to need a little knowledge and that didn't check that.

[00:14:50] We're going to have to ask that too.

[00:14:51] Did you...

[00:14:52] I don't think I struggled with that at all.

[00:14:53] I thought this sucked.

[00:14:54] This was like the hardest one.

[00:14:57] I ran in and all of a sudden I was running backwards and I was like,

[00:15:00] I get it.

[00:15:00] And there's little swirlies all over the screen.

[00:15:02] Yeah.

[00:15:03] Yeah, I don't think I had any problem with Chris Haley.

[00:15:05] Though I did do the same thing as you with Porygon Z.

[00:15:09] But to like ill effect, Porygon Z became like sort of the sacrificial lamb.

[00:15:15] Yeah.

[00:15:17] The sacrificial lamb this week because...

[00:15:20] sacrificial wulu.

[00:15:21] He also...

[00:15:22] Oh by the way, it took me far too long to figure out that you can just go into the menus.

[00:15:26] Change the Pokemon's moves at any time.

[00:15:29] Excuse me?

[00:15:30] I never needed to.

[00:15:32] But then I was finally just like, I should work on these moves.

[00:15:34] I wonder what I do with like kind of the TEM situation.

[00:15:38] And then I was like, oh, I could just go in and change the moves.

[00:15:41] Change moves was like the second option on the menu, the entire game.

[00:15:46] The other moves were fine, the entire game.

[00:15:48] But then I thought, you know what?

[00:15:50] Manifidae could probably use psychic.

[00:15:51] Yeah, I would say so.

[00:15:54] Did you know that um, what's her face at the training grounds?

[00:15:58] Israel or whatever.

[00:15:59] Yeah, yeah.

[00:16:00] No, I went and trained, trained them.

[00:16:01] Move some other stuff to Pokemon.

[00:16:02] Okay.

[00:16:03] But I never really like, screw it.

[00:16:04] I never got their move pulled up, you know, like...

[00:16:07] I never really like, you know about...

[00:16:08] About the work.

[00:16:09] Mastering moves that you can use the seed of mastery

[00:16:12] and although I never needed to.

[00:16:13] I always sold those because my Pokemon just mastered the move pretty quickly anyway.

[00:16:18] I replaced a bunch of moves going into the final battle that will be coming up to it.

[00:16:24] Well, I guess penultimate battle if you go all the way and do the final battle.

[00:16:28] But yeah, then I had to...

[00:16:30] That's fucking time.

[00:16:31] I finally had to use the seeds of mastery

[00:16:34] and I had like a dozen of them because I was like,

[00:16:36] I feel like I shouldn't sell these.

[00:16:38] But I don't really need them.

[00:16:39] And then I finally replaced like six moves across a bunch of Pokemon

[00:16:43] and then I immediately cash those in.

[00:16:46] Here's the thing with Poreganzi.

[00:16:48] It also knew Thunderwave.

[00:16:49] Yeah, I taught it Thunderwave and I was also using it to try to catch Pokemon

[00:16:53] but it was also under-leveled and it just kept dying.

[00:16:57] So then like, Manifee would come in and then I would catch the Pokemon

[00:17:00] and then Poreganzi would get none of the experience.

[00:17:03] So I think Poreganzi is my one Pokemon that I didn't manage to get up to the level cap.

[00:17:09] Well, we didn't even set a level cap although I did hit a specific level with all my Pokemon.

[00:17:15] I was going for the same level as you.

[00:17:18] Oh, okay.

[00:17:19] All of my Pokemon and that's...

[00:17:21] It seemed like a natural one of them.

[00:17:22] Stopping point.

[00:17:23] Yeah.

[00:17:24] Well, I just was like,

[00:17:25] I was a hoarder in this game and once I had over 100,000 bucks

[00:17:30] like consistently sitting around,

[00:17:32] I just started like banking things and not selling a bunch of trash

[00:17:36] like what the hell is that leaf?

[00:17:39] The little leaf that looks like a fan that I literally never used.

[00:17:43] I think the entire game.

[00:17:44] It doesn't matter.

[00:17:45] It's a real letter.

[00:17:46] All I need is tumble stones and...

[00:17:50] Or because all I'm making is ultra balls, baby.

[00:17:53] Yeah, I just...

[00:17:54] I only ever was making balls.

[00:17:56] I would always pick up wood

[00:17:57] and then I would make that Pocketshi doll.

[00:18:01] Pocketshi doll.

[00:18:02] Oh yeah.

[00:18:03] But I also sat on all of these like every, you know,

[00:18:07] candy from like experience small to extra large

[00:18:11] and rare candies.

[00:18:13] I sat all of those to my Pokemon immediate.

[00:18:15] No, I banked them for this moment thinking that we would battle

[00:18:19] and I blew all of them.

[00:18:20] A few of my Pokemon were already up there

[00:18:22] but then you put Palkeia

[00:18:24] and DiAlga in there a little bit,

[00:18:26] makes it up with some legendaries.

[00:18:27] Darkry a little.

[00:18:28] That's fun.

[00:18:29] Yeah.

[00:18:30] Start planning out them.

[00:18:31] I know that anybody else was going to say

[00:18:33] that that was a slug.

[00:18:35] The black part is it's like it's a coral

[00:18:38] and it's the slug.

[00:18:41] Well, save it.

[00:18:41] And then it's got this little like the white thing is it's tongue.

[00:18:44] You could save your little argument

[00:18:46] and we don't need to go into it.

[00:18:47] I said what I said.

[00:18:49] And I also have some new evidence about Darkry

[00:18:54] that's like going to be very devastating

[00:18:56] to your argument as well.

[00:18:58] Oh, I'd like to hear it.

[00:18:59] You will.

[00:19:00] Did I mention when I said was that my best request last week?

[00:19:03] The Dark Sum nightmare.

[00:19:05] Yeah, yeah it was.

[00:19:06] Which I did because we had a save file

[00:19:10] for brilliant diamond shining pearl.

[00:19:12] Did I mention that?

[00:19:13] I hypothesized it was like that

[00:19:16] because the shame in one was a sword and shield unlock.

[00:19:20] Okay, confirmed.

[00:19:21] And I did Dark Sum nightmare this week.

[00:19:23] So you saw Darkry.

[00:19:25] Yeah, I caught it.

[00:19:26] You know it's a slug.

[00:19:27] Feel that energy on it.

[00:19:28] I guess I should add another question

[00:19:30] for the slug scientist which is can slugs...

[00:19:33] Let me type this up.

[00:19:34] Can slugs teleport

[00:19:37] and or be undead?

[00:19:39] Some are.

[00:19:40] That's a good one.

[00:19:41] Yeah, that's a pretty scientific inquiry.

[00:19:45] Last plate, Joshua.

[00:19:48] So you say...

[00:19:50] It's a plate of snow point temple.

[00:19:52] Snow point temple.

[00:19:53] Alabaster Iceland's

[00:19:55] which is also where I did my final massive mess outbreak.

[00:20:00] Which one was that when the Blizzard?

[00:20:02] But we'll cover that.

[00:20:03] We'll cover that later.

[00:20:04] I guess we have to stay honed in

[00:20:06] on going to the snow point.

[00:20:08] Ridiculous!

[00:20:10] Yeah, your name's Nick this week.

[00:20:11] He's back here.

[00:20:13] He's looking...

[00:20:14] Splendid.

[00:20:15] Look at him.

[00:20:15] He's got his trees covering him.

[00:20:17] He's like being of pure creative force.

[00:20:21] One of the robots in Castle in the Sky.

[00:20:23] I'm gonna stand by that statement.

[00:20:26] Yeah.

[00:20:27] I mean, yeah, it looks just like it.

[00:20:28] It's better.

[00:20:29] It's better.

[00:20:29] It's better.

[00:20:31] That movie's too slow.

[00:20:32] I like that movie.

[00:20:33] I don't think it's bad.

[00:20:34] I think it's slow.

[00:20:35] Too slow.

[00:20:36] Do we want to step back into the Miyazaki discourse?

[00:20:40] No.

[00:20:40] Did we ever talk about Boy in the Haren?

[00:20:42] Because I thought that was like out of the gate.

[00:20:44] Out of the gate.

[00:20:45] Top tier.

[00:20:45] Oh, okay.

[00:20:46] Dove, dove, dove, dove, dove.

[00:20:51] Yeah, you just wander through the snow point temple

[00:20:53] and then you come to the door with sobby and I don't know.

[00:20:55] Adam and...

[00:20:56] Ridiculous!

[00:20:57] And Regikigas.

[00:20:59] Yes.

[00:21:00] And then you catch Regikigas because you have to

[00:21:02] catch everything.

[00:21:03] And it's bad.

[00:21:04] It was the easiest fight by far.

[00:21:06] Oh, yeah.

[00:21:07] I think I had something super effective for all of this.

[00:21:09] I just did one close combat and then it was basically dead

[00:21:12] than I thunder wave did and I caught it.

[00:21:14] And it killed nobody.

[00:21:16] And then we have just all of the remaining plates

[00:21:19] which is like most of the other plates left to go get.

[00:21:21] And it's like, too...

[00:21:22] Mommy has the first one.

[00:21:24] Yeah.

[00:21:25] Go take a meeting with mommy.

[00:21:26] She's like, here's your plate.

[00:21:27] Well, she says, oh, I've been eating off of this.

[00:21:30] I just need three pieces of wood.

[00:21:33] And that's how I will be able to tell you the secret

[00:21:36] of the 17th plate.

[00:21:38] Oh, yeah.

[00:21:38] And I had just as I was saying,

[00:21:40] I love carving those poqueshi dolls.

[00:21:43] So and I literally just done it

[00:21:44] and I was like, I don't have any fucking wood left

[00:21:46] and I had to go flying around obsidian fieldlands

[00:21:49] and just keep in the box.

[00:21:50] And then she is like, oh, thanks.

[00:21:53] I needed a new cutting board.

[00:21:55] Here's your...

[00:21:56] Pixie plate.

[00:21:56] That's what she uses.

[00:21:57] And what is it?

[00:21:57] Pixie plate, I think, too.

[00:21:59] Yeah.

[00:22:00] No, it is Pixie plate.

[00:22:01] She's been using the Pixie plate as her chopping board

[00:22:04] and so she wants a new one.

[00:22:06] Yeah, I think...

[00:22:07] Who's there with us?

[00:22:08] Volo, even Volo's like...

[00:22:09] What about all this like sacred writing

[00:22:11] on the back where you concerned about that?

[00:22:13] And she was like, yeah, I didn't really think about it.

[00:22:15] Oh, I just thought that that was an Ina-Garden recipe.

[00:22:18] Yeah.

[00:22:19] Make up the top.

[00:22:19] Okay.

[00:22:20] The plates are intact.

[00:22:22] Volo and I are becoming like fast friends, close allies.

[00:22:27] Couldn't be tighter.

[00:22:30] And Chumier and more in love.

[00:22:34] The kind of love that two respectful colleagues have for one another.

[00:22:39] Yeah, you're adventuring around this whole time with Volo.

[00:22:42] And here we are at the top of Mount...

[00:22:44] It's no point temple.

[00:22:45] Yeah.

[00:22:46] Mount Coronet.

[00:22:47] No, whoa, whoa, whoa.

[00:22:48] Yeah, you have to go to the Coronet Highlands

[00:22:51] and you have to go to admire the statues,

[00:22:56] the broken statue and Volo's like,

[00:22:58] what do you think this one was?

[00:22:59] Do you think it was like a really messed up looking worm thing

[00:23:03] that probably is a slug?

[00:23:05] And definitely a slug.

[00:23:06] Yeah, definitely a slug.

[00:23:07] It's destroyed because everybody hated it

[00:23:08] and then he's like, oh, it's, it's Giratina.

[00:23:11] Giratina.

[00:23:11] And he's like, where do you think that might be?

[00:23:13] Do you think it might be where we found Dialga and Palkiah?

[00:23:17] Hey, up at the Sinnoh...

[00:23:19] I don't appreciate this tone you're taking for Volo.

[00:23:23] Just got done today.

[00:23:24] He's a close friend in the alley.

[00:23:27] Yeah.

[00:23:28] Yeah, sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself.

[00:23:29] I do.

[00:23:30] Yeah, Joshua.

[00:23:30] Canonically.

[00:23:31] Love.

[00:23:32] Volo is is luring us to Snowpoint Temple

[00:23:36] where we will go to...

[00:23:39] Figure out whenever this honey trap is

[00:23:41] that he's luring us to after this break.

[00:23:44] Sorry, I was trying to think of a good approach to it

[00:23:46] but I couldn't think of one

[00:23:47] and it just felt mean to trick you.

[00:23:49] That's fine.

[00:23:50] Number 3

[00:23:54] Working at your local tims is more than serving coffee.

[00:23:57] It's building connections with a team in a great environment,

[00:24:00] connecting with your guests in the community

[00:24:02] and participating in programs like Smile Cookie

[00:24:05] and Hockey Card Trade Nights.

[00:24:07] So join your local tims team today.

[00:24:10] Apply now at careers.timhortons.ca

[00:24:17] All righty then.

[00:24:20] He's Ventura.

[00:24:21] I know him.

[00:24:22] Joshua, welcome back, bug by and yours.

[00:24:24] Welcome back.

[00:24:24] Welcome back to his...

[00:24:26] We are on the steps.

[00:24:28] Sorry.

[00:24:29] I had to do all my time.

[00:24:29] Speaking of steps.

[00:24:30] I stepped on your...

[00:24:33] We're on the steps of Snowpoint Temple.

[00:24:36] Well now we're heading up to Temple of Sinnoh.

[00:24:40] Yeah.

[00:24:40] We're on the steps of the Temple of Sinnoh

[00:24:42] and Volo reveals his true identity.

[00:24:46] Yeah, um, pit.

[00:24:47] He looks like pit from Kid Egris.

[00:24:51] Yeah, he does look like pit from Kid Egris.

[00:24:52] He's got a whole new get up.

[00:24:54] Lunar hair.

[00:24:55] I mean he looks like...

[00:24:56] I think he's going for like an archius look.

[00:24:59] He's like an archius like Stan.

[00:25:01] Yeah, like an acolyte.

[00:25:03] He really wants to meet Archius.

[00:25:05] He thinks that getting all the plates

[00:25:08] to the Temple of Sinnoh is the only way to do that.

[00:25:12] He is, in fact, right.

[00:25:15] But we're missing, still missing a plate.

[00:25:18] That's right.

[00:25:18] But we get up there.

[00:25:19] It turns out he has it.

[00:25:21] He whips off his costume.

[00:25:23] He's the villain.

[00:25:24] It looks...

[00:25:24] Fucking knew it.

[00:25:25] Yeah, you didn't like him for a low beginning.

[00:25:27] I fell for his good looks and charming demeanor

[00:25:30] and all the free items he gave me.

[00:25:33] The bonding that we did.

[00:25:34] We're just simping looking for all these plates.

[00:25:37] Yeah, I'm a simp.

[00:25:38] He then gets into a battle with you.

[00:25:43] I went in with roughly the team I had level-wise last week

[00:25:49] and barely scraped through the battle

[00:25:52] with Volo.

[00:25:53] A surprise guest shows up, almost made it through the battle

[00:25:57] with the surprise guest.

[00:25:59] Like I had to pop every max revive I had.

[00:26:02] And then the surprise guest does turn into its origin form.

[00:26:08] Yeah, origin form.

[00:26:09] And then absolutely obliterated me.

[00:26:11] So I did have to go back to Jubalife,

[00:26:14] do a little training and do some side missions in...

[00:26:19] Request ranking!

[00:26:20] Request for ranking!

[00:26:24] Yeah, I got absolutely obliterated the first time

[00:26:26] I went up there.

[00:26:27] I actually did it.

[00:26:29] I did it in one shot.

[00:26:31] It was not easy.

[00:26:32] We'll get into that, but I did do it in one shot.

[00:26:35] I'm pretty proud of that.

[00:26:37] It was like a final fantasy battle.

[00:26:38] It's just like kept coming, I mean.

[00:26:40] It was like, ugh!

[00:26:42] Yeah, I'll say in general,

[00:26:43] I'm very impressed with the battles

[00:26:46] that they built for this game.

[00:26:48] Yeah, it's a fun game.

[00:26:49] And I'm so glad we should mention,

[00:26:51] by the way, this is a Pokemon news corner.

[00:26:54] Oh yeah.

[00:26:54] So excited that they announced Pokemon Alpha Z.

[00:26:58] Yeah, Pokemon Legends ZA.

[00:27:01] Yeah, right.

[00:27:03] God.

[00:27:03] Yeah.

[00:27:04] I got into a lot of comments on Reddit

[00:27:07] about speculating like, oh well,

[00:27:10] Nintendo of America said set entirely within Lumios

[00:27:13] and then Pokemon Japan or Pokemon Company

[00:27:16] or Nintendo or fucking whatever was like in Lumios

[00:27:20] but it doesn't...

[00:27:20] And they're like, wait, is it all going to be within the city?

[00:27:23] And like, is this cyberpunk?

[00:27:26] Yeah, it's that...

[00:27:27] Well, then that was the other part was,

[00:27:29] oh, is this going to be a reconstruction of Lumios

[00:27:32] after the events of X and Y, where it gets destroyed

[00:27:35] and then they're rebuilding it.

[00:27:37] Whereas I think...

[00:27:38] I would take the side...

[00:27:40] I would take the side of a...

[00:27:41] I mean, yeah, the Eternal Flowet with AZs.

[00:27:46] Eternal Flowet.

[00:27:47] I've been waiting 3,000 years.

[00:27:49] It's like the story of how they built Lumios

[00:27:52] whether or not it's set entirely within it

[00:27:54] rather than like post reconstruction Lumios.

[00:27:57] Oh cool, it's going to be like Steam Punk.

[00:27:59] I mean, that's what that trailer looks like to me, I think.

[00:28:02] That's Pokemon News Corner.

[00:28:05] Now let's get into the requests.

[00:28:07] What's your best?

[00:28:08] Daybreak.

[00:28:09] The Daybreak line is really fun, but also I'll let you talk about

[00:28:11] the Daybreak line because what I want to talk about

[00:28:13] is what happened after the Daybreak line

[00:28:15] which is the Path of Solitude.

[00:28:18] Oh, okay.

[00:28:19] And you like...

[00:28:20] Did you take any Pokemon on the Path of Solitude?

[00:28:24] I just tried to do it with the specific Pokemon that Rai...

[00:28:31] Whatever his name is, the trainer who's off to the side

[00:28:34] gives you like 7 or 10 side quests that are all

[00:28:38] do the Path of Solitude with Blyssi and Sneasel

[00:28:41] and all this shit.

[00:28:42] And they all got one hidden

[00:28:45] and I was like, no, I'm just not going to do that.

[00:28:48] The way it works is you get one Pokemon that goes in

[00:28:52] and it's at the training ground.

[00:28:54] It's Ingo.

[00:28:55] It's our friend Ingo, is it?

[00:28:57] Yeah, Ingo's who you go to to set him up.

[00:28:59] I think Commado is the one who announces the new battle style though.

[00:29:03] Garrett.

[00:29:04] Excuse me, it's Garrett who gives you those Pokemon requests,

[00:29:09] those matchup ones.

[00:29:11] That is the name of Garrett.

[00:29:13] Huh.

[00:29:14] Guess I'm not the only one who can't keep track

[00:29:17] of all these fucking names.

[00:29:19] Well they all look the same too which is...

[00:29:21] They look great.

[00:29:22] Yeah but yeah.

[00:29:24] To tell the department they all have big...

[00:29:25] A lot of copy and pasting of like what their actual

[00:29:29] looks are.

[00:29:29] Here's the thing, Joshua.

[00:29:30] You go into a battle and you were pitted against your perfect nemesis.

[00:29:35] The Pokemon that's been perfectly selected to destroy you,

[00:29:39] whatever Pokemon you've brought into battle.

[00:29:42] And it's really hard.

[00:29:43] I didn't really do well on that but I think it's kind of fun.

[00:29:45] It's neat.

[00:29:46] Yeah, it's neat.

[00:29:47] It's neat thing that.

[00:29:47] It's like their battle tower.

[00:29:49] Souls like fine.

[00:29:52] What?

[00:29:52] Let's walk me through Daybreak.

[00:29:55] So Daybreak was completed after I done

[00:29:58] the massive mass outbreak.

[00:29:59] So I think it's triggered by at least doing new anomaly

[00:30:03] because I beat all of those.

[00:30:05] And then I think also a couple of quests that are related to

[00:30:09] Irida and Adam and that I will get to in a moment.

[00:30:12] But I came around on the massive mass outbreaks

[00:30:15] if you recall I was a little indifferent about it

[00:30:19] and over the course of this leg in particular

[00:30:22] I made...

[00:30:23] I had some pretty tough ones.

[00:30:25] There were a lot of like once you were able to give

[00:30:27] a guava berries to the munchlax and then figure out where to go.

[00:30:31] I pinpointed like oh I don't have a potcher risu

[00:30:34] and I don't have mag bees or whatever

[00:30:38] and ended up actually in like a few dices scenarios

[00:30:41] that were pretty challenging.

[00:30:42] We're like the potcher risus I didn't complete it in time

[00:30:46] and then they respawn and there were four alpha potcher risus

[00:30:50] which was also really funny looking

[00:30:52] and then there was one that I...

[00:30:54] Alpha stunkies.

[00:30:57] You...

[00:30:57] I didn't get that fortunately.

[00:30:59] I did the one that I got that was the hardest

[00:31:01] was the ride on massive mass outbreak

[00:31:04] and at one point it was any one of my Pokemon versus four ride on

[00:31:09] and they were all level like 60 or whatever

[00:31:12] so that actually was like a nightmare

[00:31:14] and then I think so I thought that the

[00:31:18] I think that element is actually pretty fun and interesting

[00:31:22] and it makes you re-explore the map again

[00:31:24] which I'm sure is the intention but then also

[00:31:27] I think the outbreaks are fun too.

[00:31:29] That's... no that's what I mean

[00:31:30] like I re-explore the map as a result of trying to do it

[00:31:33] I actually kind of like that there is a time limit

[00:31:37] but it's not too stressful

[00:31:39] and then the reward at the end is uh

[00:31:42] well I have two comments about it

[00:31:44] It's very cute

[00:31:45] The end of the quest line for daybreak

[00:31:48] is you get like a cute cutscene where

[00:31:50] it's you iirada adaman um and I think the boywarden leon i think is there too

[00:31:56] and you're all just like scaring and a breathtaking

[00:31:59] like new dawn and you're marveling in the beauty of his sui

[00:32:03] which was fun.

[00:32:04] It happens a lot in this game honestly

[00:32:06] but then my my complete... I guess the disappointing part to me

[00:32:10] is that they're basically like maybe the

[00:32:13] we... our hypothesis is maybe the Pokemon and the massive mass outbreaks are

[00:32:18] leftover energy from the time space distortion

[00:32:21] or maybe it just means we have a lot more to learn about the world around us

[00:32:25] and they're like okay bye

[00:32:26] so like no resolution which is also sort of

[00:32:29] the entire main story as well

[00:32:32] but that i enjoyed it a lot.

[00:32:34] I thought it was great.

[00:32:35] A worse request

[00:32:36] We have the same one

[00:32:37] The diamond

[00:32:38] The diamond

[00:32:39] The clans treasure

[00:32:40] And the pearl clans treasure

[00:32:42] You go off on your ramp because I think my reason for not liking it

[00:32:47] is going to be the perfect segue for bringing in our

[00:32:49] our slug scientist.

[00:32:50] Okay great

[00:32:54] Yeah my my complaint with this is just like

[00:32:58] all that it is is finding ira and adaman at like different

[00:33:02] cliff sides or whatever and they're like

[00:33:04] whoo whoo whoo

[00:33:05] Like I got a secret to tell you

[00:33:07] I'm really bad at battle

[00:33:08] But you're gonna have to battle me first

[00:33:10] And yeah

[00:33:11] These are the clan leaders

[00:33:13] okay

[00:33:13] Let's remind everyone of that

[00:33:15] And they have cool teams that should be great in execution

[00:33:20] They each have three different evolutions

[00:33:23] Look nice

[00:33:24] Right they look beautiful stunning

[00:33:26] It's a three on one

[00:33:28] The problem is

[00:33:29] They're ace

[00:33:30] You don't have to be so easy

[00:33:31] Yeah well the problem

[00:33:33] Right it's too easy

[00:33:35] A lot of the battles on this leg have been really tough

[00:33:37] And I have been appreciating that

[00:33:40] This is a letdown where glacion and leafyon

[00:33:43] respectively are their aces

[00:33:45] Is level 65 great

[00:33:47] But then the other two are both level 34

[00:33:50] And so you target 65 immediately

[00:33:53] And then once that's done it's just it's curtains

[00:33:56] Yeah and at this point I mean I was just saying

[00:33:58] I had to fight like four right-ons

[00:33:59] That were all level 60 or whatever

[00:34:02] At the same time

[00:34:03] Just give me my lowest level was probably 70

[00:34:06] Give me three level 65

[00:34:07] Evolutions

[00:34:08] Same time

[00:34:09] Yeah I can take it

[00:34:10] I can take it

[00:34:11] There are the leaders as a clans

[00:34:13] Like they should be able to not only beat me in battle

[00:34:15] They should be able to just have me executed

[00:34:17] And get away with it

[00:34:18] Like me so

[00:34:19] And what do you get?

[00:34:20] And what do you get for it?

[00:34:21] And then they you beat them

[00:34:22] And then they give away like the priceless heirlooms

[00:34:25] That have been handed down from like clan leader

[00:34:28] From generation to generation

[00:34:30] And they've got it

[00:34:31] They've dug

[00:34:32] And they just give it away

[00:34:34] Like I don't even want this

[00:34:36] Because they're both terrible

[00:34:37] What like day-ons will be

[00:34:39] Alchia right?

[00:34:40] Like Adam and Orbor

[00:34:42] Luster's Orbor

[00:34:43] And it's a perfect time to bring in our slug scientists

[00:34:46] Because I do think

[00:34:47] I don't think that the Adam and Orb

[00:34:50] makes palchia more of a slug

[00:34:53] But I think it's a parallel slug move

[00:34:55] Because he loses his arms

[00:34:57] But he does grow two extra legs

[00:34:59] Okay, yeah

[00:35:00] So we do have to talk about that

[00:35:01] I had that on my notes

[00:35:03] That I wanted to talk about

[00:35:05] Origin for me

[00:35:06] Palchia

[00:35:07] Because I didn't get to see it

[00:35:08] But I looked it up

[00:35:09] So I'd be informed

[00:35:10] But speaking of informed

[00:35:12] We're going to go into level check

[00:35:14] Okay

[00:35:15] And then we will talk about volo

[00:35:16] But we need to get the slug scientist in here

[00:35:19] So

[00:35:20] It's

[00:35:21] Level check

[00:35:22] Featuring

[00:35:22] Actual slug scientist

[00:35:24] Debatable

[00:35:26] Michael Levine

[00:35:32] I've never seen your studio before

[00:35:34] And I knew about this jar jar pink thing

[00:35:37] Because you talked about it one thing

[00:35:40] The shrine

[00:35:41] It looks like you cut off jar jar pink's head

[00:35:43] It's a backpack

[00:35:44] It's a backpack

[00:35:46] Holy yeah

[00:35:47] Which is that you see

[00:35:48] You see the ears go around you

[00:35:49] Like

[00:35:50] You see how he has the curves too

[00:35:51] No, that would be good

[00:35:53] If the ears were the arm

[00:35:55] The arm hole

[00:35:55] You want to have

[00:35:57] Yeah, which one is this curtain

[00:35:59] Well, so he can have some

[00:36:00] Private bunk time if he needs it

[00:36:02] Welcome to the show

[00:36:04] Dr.

[00:36:05] Mike Levine

[00:36:06] Yeah, Dr.

[00:36:07] Michael Levine

[00:36:08] Slug scientist

[00:36:09] Slug scientist

[00:36:10] I am a slug scientist

[00:36:12] Oh, I'm so interested to dig into your background

[00:36:14] And your history

[00:36:15] And your qualifications

[00:36:17] As a slug scientist

[00:36:18] Please tell us first

[00:36:20] Where did you go to school

[00:36:20] And what did you go to school for

[00:36:22] Um

[00:36:22] What was your doctorate in

[00:36:23] Well, I did my PhD at Cornell

[00:36:26] And my doctorate is in physiology and biophysics

[00:36:30] Of

[00:36:30] Of

[00:36:31] Anything

[00:36:32] Anything

[00:36:33] Yeah, physiology and biophysics of anything

[00:36:36] It turns out to be a scientist

[00:36:37] You have to just kind of be prepared

[00:36:38] To work on anything

[00:36:39] You'll even know the weird kinds of animals

[00:36:42] That you have to study to do experiments

[00:36:44] You can't just do every experiment on humans

[00:36:46] You literally studied slugs

[00:36:47] Did you have to die in school

[00:36:49] You're in med school

[00:36:51] I was at a med school

[00:36:52] Doing my PhD technically

[00:36:53] What do you call that?

[00:36:54] How many medical school

[00:36:55] How many are known about that

[00:36:57] How many PhDs do you have

[00:36:59] I mean, you really only get one

[00:37:00] Anyone who has more than a PhD

[00:37:02] Is definitely lying to you

[00:37:03] Or has like

[00:37:04] Fakes so just

[00:37:04] Okay

[00:37:05] So just the one

[00:37:06] Just the one

[00:37:07] Just the one

[00:37:07] I definitely have dissected slugs

[00:37:09] At some point in my education

[00:37:11] I have worked in labs that worked on

[00:37:14] Fish and birds

[00:37:16] And

[00:37:17] Technically, I guess mice

[00:37:19] Lots of bacteria

[00:37:20] So a bunch of

[00:37:21] Slimy

[00:37:22] So there are a lot of things with very

[00:37:24] Very things

[00:37:25] So a lot of those things have bones

[00:37:26] Which is a crucial thing

[00:37:28] That slugs don't have

[00:37:30] Well if you

[00:37:31] If you truly do have one of the

[00:37:32] Ford行s we know

[00:37:34] It'll be nice to have a peer on the show

[00:37:36] The fellow slug expert

[00:37:38] I am an expert, you know

[00:37:39] Do you know how scientists do the

[00:37:41] Swervey way

[00:37:41] Scientists become experts

[00:37:42] But I first become experts in one thing

[00:37:44] And then using Wikipedia

[00:37:46] Did you got experts in another thing

[00:37:48] Oh that's like how

[00:37:50] Yeah, that's like

[00:37:51] Me being a historian

[00:37:53] Where I studied history in college

[00:37:54] And now I spend most of my time

[00:37:56] When I'm not playing Pokemon

[00:37:58] On Wikipedia reading about obscure historical events

[00:38:00] Exactly

[00:38:01] Like sometimes maybe you'll go to Google Scholar

[00:38:04] And look for real papers

[00:38:05] Because you have the thing you want to learn about

[00:38:07] But you kind of always started with Wikipedia

[00:38:09] You don't even know my work computer

[00:38:10] I have so many Wikipedia tabs open

[00:38:14] I love to compare tabs sometimes

[00:38:16] It's like this is like

[00:38:17] What they don't teach you in Harvard

[00:38:19] Business school

[00:38:20] Your impression of that

[00:38:21] This is what they don't teach you

[00:38:22] A Cornell Medical School

[00:38:24] Yeah, they don't teach you how to use Wikipedia properly

[00:38:26] They really should

[00:38:27] Uh here's we're doing level check Mike

[00:38:30] You've been on the show before

[00:38:31] Everyone welcome back Mike Levine

[00:38:32] He came onto play

[00:38:33] Pokemon trading card game with Josh

[00:38:36] Pretty good game

[00:38:37] And he is also uh

[00:38:38] The moderator of the

[00:38:40] Reddit, the subreddit

[00:38:41] Reddit.com slash r slash bug catchers

[00:38:43] Where he hosts the level checks

[00:38:45] Yeah

[00:38:45] So very fitting to have you on here for the level check

[00:38:47] I am the reason the level check is almost always late

[00:38:50] Well, so happens

[00:38:52] We're also always late on posting uh

[00:38:54] Anything about the show these days on social media

[00:38:57] So busy people uh

[00:38:59] Here's my team we're doing level check

[00:39:00] I think this I'm

[00:39:01] Let's let's start with confident

[00:39:04] Because I don't have any slugs in my team

[00:39:06] We still don't thank you

[00:39:07] Oh, I don't know

[00:39:08] Maybe you think there's probably one slug

[00:39:10] But it's a slug that's on

[00:39:11] Tanner's team also

[00:39:13] Okay

[00:39:13] It's clear mine

[00:39:14] And then let's focus

[00:39:15] Let's really hone in on Doug Farmer

[00:39:18] I see one slug

[00:39:19] Three invertebrates on your team

[00:39:21] Interesting

[00:39:22] In Fidget

[00:39:23] Josh, you think Samarot

[00:39:25] Philippus

[00:39:26] Soren's first Pokemon

[00:39:28] Philippus

[00:39:29] Samarot

[00:39:30] Do you think that's that's got bones

[00:39:31] I'm gonna look up each one as we go

[00:39:35] Yeah, I'm not gonna make an argument

[00:39:37] Okay, fresh

[00:39:38] A very important part of being a slug

[00:39:40] Is not having a shell

[00:39:42] And that has a shell on a head

[00:39:44] So it's definitely not a slug

[00:39:46] Okay, we allow snails to have a slug

[00:39:49] Well, so if you allow snails

[00:39:50] That that gives you some extra flexibility

[00:39:53] It could be a snail

[00:39:55] I agree but it I mean

[00:39:56] Does it pass the small test

[00:39:58] When you look at that thing

[00:39:59] Which has a nose

[00:40:01] And whiskers

[00:40:02] No, no

[00:40:02] Yeah, this is not gonna have a slug

[00:40:04] Definitely not a slug

[00:40:05] Norse snail

[00:40:06] Yeah

[00:40:07] Level 75

[00:40:08] I will just say it

[00:40:09] Every single one of my Pokemon is level 75

[00:40:12] The good level

[00:40:12] As I was saying to Tanner earlier

[00:40:14] I timed all of my candies

[00:40:17] So that they would all be the same level

[00:40:19] Because we thought we would be able to balance

[00:40:21] I have to wrap our heads around

[00:40:24] So you would have killed me

[00:40:25] I think so

[00:40:26] And we might try to game that out one way or another

[00:40:30] Because we couldn't get Pokemon showdown

[00:40:32] We couldn't hack it

[00:40:33] Amit Driftblum

[00:40:35] That's balloon

[00:40:37] Yeah, invert a bit for sure

[00:40:38] Not a slug definitely

[00:40:40] Well, I guess I can pepper in a couple

[00:40:41] My related questions Mike while you're here

[00:40:44] About slugs

[00:40:44] Can they be undead

[00:40:47] Can they be undead

[00:40:48] Now I do think there could be zombie slugs

[00:40:51] There's nothing stopping a slug

[00:40:53] From being a zombie slug

[00:40:55] And there's tons of cool fungus

[00:40:57] That take over

[00:40:59] And those bodies

[00:41:00] And make them into weird zombies

[00:41:01] Usually they take over ants

[00:41:03] But you could imagine

[00:41:04] That's what Paris is based on

[00:41:07] That reminds me of um

[00:41:09] Paris and Parasect

[00:41:10] Do you know about that?

[00:41:11] Because that's one of those

[00:41:13] I didn't hear it

[00:41:13] So you could imagine some fungus

[00:41:16] They can turn a slug into a zombie

[00:41:18] That is that is completely possible

[00:41:20] Does that exist

[00:41:21] I don't think so

[00:41:23] Wow

[00:41:23] You could have

[00:41:24] That's coming from the mouth of a slug

[00:41:26] A doctor of slug science

[00:41:28] People

[00:41:29] Slugology

[00:41:30] So there could be one

[00:41:31] Just like a shrug and

[00:41:33] Could happen

[00:41:34] There's a lot of hypotheticals in science

[00:41:37] You know

[00:41:37] Could someone make one in a lab

[00:41:39] Oh no

[00:41:40] Is it a thing you might want to make it a lab

[00:41:42] Who knows

[00:41:42] Who knows

[00:41:43] Oh no

[00:41:44] How is Driftblum watching this

[00:41:45] Type of hypotheticals

[00:41:46] That's our indeed job to figure out

[00:41:48] Whether he's got this should make it

[00:41:50] Now is Driftblum

[00:41:51] One of these

[00:41:52] I'm going to go with probably not

[00:41:54] Probably not

[00:41:55] I don't have to have slugs

[00:41:56] But I am curious

[00:41:58] Björny the lux ray

[00:41:59] That's not a slug

[00:42:00] That's absolutely not

[00:42:01] The electric lion

[00:42:02] Lion

[00:42:03] Franegh

[00:42:04] Tuxa croak

[00:42:06] Bones

[00:42:06] Nope

[00:42:07] Yeah

[00:42:07] Frogs

[00:42:08] It has bones

[00:42:09] Yeah

[00:42:10] Frogs have bones

[00:42:10] I think we know that

[00:42:11] Have you ever eaten frog

[00:42:12] Do it definitely know they have bones then

[00:42:15] No but I have dissected

[00:42:16] I like frogs two and a year

[00:42:18] Do you remember seeing bones in there

[00:42:20] Yeah they got a lot of bones

[00:42:21] Okay way too bony

[00:42:23] Now here's

[00:42:24] No in fact I'm going to do one

[00:42:26] Before I get to the main course

[00:42:28] Speaking of

[00:42:29] The hemith alpha clevor

[00:42:31] Rocks

[00:42:32] Bones

[00:42:33] Axes

[00:42:34] So

[00:42:34] Oh no bones

[00:42:35] It's like an ant

[00:42:36] That's all exoskeleton

[00:42:37] You did make

[00:42:38] I feel like you actually did try to make an argument

[00:42:40] Maybe clevor

[00:42:41] Was a slug or didn't have bones

[00:42:43] But it's an ant

[00:42:44] It's like a rock

[00:42:46] Rocks aren't bones

[00:42:47] But don't they have a skeleton

[00:42:48] Probably like structure is like bone

[00:42:50] So obviously an ant isn't a slug

[00:42:53] And just to be clear

[00:42:54] Slugs are not insects

[00:42:56] They're modest

[00:42:57] I'm not

[00:42:58] I want to be clear

[00:42:59] I'm not arguing that in the slug

[00:43:01] Yeah they're just not even slug a Jason

[00:43:03] They're pretty far

[00:43:05] I'm just going to remind you of Doug's

[00:43:07] motto

[00:43:08] Oh yeah

[00:43:09] The famous motto

[00:43:10] That probably both

[00:43:12] Dr. Levine and I

[00:43:13] Could both just say off the top of our heads

[00:43:15] Let's try it

[00:43:17] Try search for

[00:43:18] You have to search for your own motto

[00:43:21] Um, no throne

[00:43:23] Bugs, slugs, crabs, clams

[00:43:26] Little octopods and other boneless bots

[00:43:29] If it ain't got a bones

[00:43:31] Get thrown

[00:43:32] Of course

[00:43:33] Thank you for saying it with me, Joshua

[00:43:35] Just knew it off the top

[00:43:36] We heard that we said the whole first half

[00:43:37] In perfect sync

[00:43:38] So it sounded like just one person saying it

[00:43:41] Yeah

[00:43:41] It did seem to me that

[00:43:43] The bug part of that was a pretty nice crutch

[00:43:47] For you

[00:43:47] Otherwise you would have a very small team

[00:43:50] Bugs don't have bones

[00:43:51] No, I don't have a small team

[00:43:52] I have a full team of six eligible

[00:43:55] Uh, slugs and

[00:43:57] A lot of slugs waiting in the wings

[00:43:58] I think everything is eligible

[00:44:00] We're going to talk about the eligibility

[00:44:02] And then that's when

[00:44:03] You know the problem arises

[00:44:06] Who else is on your team?

[00:44:07] Well my last one is

[00:44:09] Surebosh

[00:44:10] The alpha-good

[00:44:11] Definitely

[00:44:11] Now this is a debate

[00:44:13] Well definitely a snail

[00:44:14] But we have to say it's snail

[00:44:15] Gotta be snail

[00:44:16] That's what you think about that

[00:44:17] But you need his sui and goodra

[00:44:19] His sui and goodra

[00:44:20] I mean, you know somehow

[00:44:22] This is real creepy

[00:44:23] Google

[00:44:24] Once I put in the age

[00:44:25] Put in his sui and goodra

[00:44:27] So

[00:44:27] Maybe you've spent some time on alpha

[00:44:30] On a

[00:44:31] For affinity.net

[00:44:32] I will say

[00:44:33] That goodra has one aspect

[00:44:35] Which is very very important for slugs

[00:44:38] Which is that they excrete mucus

[00:44:40] And he is gooey

[00:44:42] And in this image on

[00:44:44] Boba Pedia

[00:44:45] There's really just goo

[00:44:46] Coming off his chin

[00:44:47] Off his hands

[00:44:48] This trips

[00:44:49] So

[00:44:49] Yeah, I think it's one

[00:44:50] It just chooses to take the shape of a dragon

[00:44:53] But it's really just a big like

[00:44:55] Snail

[00:44:56] Body

[00:44:57] So

[00:44:58] That's what I worry

[00:44:58] It may and back be a snail

[00:45:01] Not a slug

[00:45:02] Those are two different things

[00:45:03] Gumi

[00:45:04] Snail's not a mollusk too

[00:45:06] They're both mollusk

[00:45:07] Snail is a slug

[00:45:09] Snail's a slug with a shell

[00:45:10] Mike, come on

[00:45:11] Okay

[00:45:12] So

[00:45:13] They are evolutionally related

[00:45:15] But and they are both part of the family of mollusk

[00:45:17] But they are not the same thing

[00:45:19] And actually the important thing

[00:45:21] Like sea slugs for example

[00:45:22] Are snails that lost their shells

[00:45:25] Over time

[00:45:26] Revolution

[00:45:27] So

[00:45:28] It's kind of where all those shells came from

[00:45:32] Not sure that's how evolution works

[00:45:34] But so in the sense that you know

[00:45:37] We're related to a bunch of primates

[00:45:39] That is true

[00:45:41] But I wouldn't call

[00:45:42] Primate a human Pokemon for example

[00:45:45] Would you

[00:45:45] I think Steve

[00:45:47] Human would have a lot of problems

[00:45:49] I don't know about

[00:45:50] Yeah, Steve Human would have a lot of problems with this

[00:45:53] The people he's chooses to hang out with

[00:45:57] That being said

[00:45:58] I actually think the non-historian Gugra

[00:46:01] Is more likely

[00:46:02] Yeah that's a slug

[00:46:04] Because the whole thing

[00:46:05] It's a slug

[00:46:05] Getting the steel part

[00:46:07] Is that it gets the shell

[00:46:09] Even though it has a little shell when it's

[00:46:11] Slugoo

[00:46:11] Even when it's normal

[00:46:13] Gugra does not have a shell

[00:46:15] So I think Gugra

[00:46:17] So they're

[00:46:18] Slug

[00:46:18] Yeah if we were back home

[00:46:20] In modern day Sino

[00:46:22] I'd be rocking a Gugra

[00:46:23] But now it's stuck in fucking old Hesui

[00:46:25] There is one other problem with Gugra

[00:46:28] So

[00:46:29] We don't know the fact about slugs

[00:46:30] Is that the whole thing is actually called

[00:46:33] Body is called the foot

[00:46:34] Because it's one big muscle that's basically

[00:46:37] But now

[00:46:39] Gugra has feet

[00:46:40] It has two feet

[00:46:41] No that's just like

[00:46:42] It's good

[00:46:43] Gugfees

[00:46:44] Slugs can kind of take any shape Mike

[00:46:46] That interpretation of what a slug could be

[00:46:51] But I would say

[00:46:52] They have one of my

[00:46:53] The appendages

[00:46:53] They have like antennae

[00:46:55] They have one of my key questions

[00:46:57] Four tentacles

[00:46:58] And it does have four tentacles on its head

[00:47:00] It has two big ones and two small ones

[00:47:02] That is very slug-like

[00:47:03] I agree

[00:47:04] Can slugs have necks

[00:47:05] Or heads

[00:47:06] Or they basically go on that

[00:47:07] Let's get into my team

[00:47:09] They probably get into the head

[00:47:10] Or necks

[00:47:11] Or anything like that

[00:47:12] Or horns

[00:47:13] All right

[00:47:15] Let's go through Doug Farmer slug charmers

[00:47:18] List here

[00:47:19] Slug starter alpha-west sea gastrodon

[00:47:22] Definitely a slug

[00:47:23] Gastrodon

[00:47:24] Well that's gonna relate to

[00:47:26] Dr. Levine's snail sea slug thing

[00:47:30] Yes it is literally defined as the sea slug Pokemon

[00:47:33] So you definitely

[00:47:34] You definitely get this one

[00:47:36] It is literally a slug Pokemon

[00:47:38] So you win this one

[00:47:40] Great because I have two of those

[00:47:41] Slug partner alpha-easy gastrodon

[00:47:44] Level 75

[00:47:45] That's probably cleared

[00:47:47] Rock harder alpha-steelix

[00:47:49] Level 75

[00:47:51] Now we just go by the polka decks by the way

[00:47:54] Mike

[00:47:54] I know

[00:47:55] You know why we brought you on

[00:47:56] We can check the polka decks

[00:47:57] Tatter and chuster loads

[00:47:59] Vives

[00:48:00] I was thinking about what makes a polka monosug

[00:48:03] I was trying to make it a little more flexible for you

[00:48:06] So maybe some of your Pokemon

[00:48:07] Would actually qualify in some

[00:48:09] Yeah very

[00:48:10] You know I'm also a physicist

[00:48:11] So you know we have a phrase in physics called the Spiracle Cow

[00:48:15] See what

[00:48:16] So in biophysics

[00:48:18] You use physics to solve problems in biology

[00:48:21] So often you have to simplify things quite a bit

[00:48:23] So there's this joke that

[00:48:24] To a physicist

[00:48:25] A good approximation of a cow is a sphere

[00:48:28] Because if you keep getting rid of details

[00:48:31] Everything is basically

[00:48:33] These like simple things like a sphere

[00:48:35] So I'm trying to get rid of some details

[00:48:36] What a slug is

[00:48:38] So you qualify some of your problems

[00:48:40] And steelix definitely

[00:48:41] That's like the argument that Tanner tried to use with rotom

[00:48:45] Or one of our other reasons

[00:48:47] We were going to talk about rotom later I think

[00:48:49] But we will

[00:48:50] Here's what we'll say about steelix

[00:48:52] So what makes something a slug

[00:48:54] So slugs bodies are majority water

[00:48:56] It's like 80% to 90% water

[00:48:59] Is there those big steel balls

[00:49:01] That steelix is made out of just full of water

[00:49:03] He's heavy

[00:49:04] Now you could imagine rocks

[00:49:07] They're rocks

[00:49:08] No it's steel

[00:49:09] It starts as an onyx

[00:49:11] It starts as an onyx

[00:49:13] Yeah it starts as solid

[00:49:14] Pile of rocks

[00:49:15] And the secondary thing they excrete mucus

[00:49:18] Right this like water based substance

[00:49:21] That comes from their body

[00:49:22] So would you have

[00:49:24] The rock or steel equivalent of a slug

[00:49:27] Where instead of it being 80% to 90% water

[00:49:29] It's 80% to 90% steel

[00:49:31] And excrete steel from its body

[00:49:33] Now

[00:49:34] If you use that description

[00:49:36] I think steelix could be a steel slug

[00:49:39] Now does steel slugs really exist?

[00:49:41] No

[00:49:41] But in a lab we could make one maybe

[00:49:43] Oh yes

[00:49:44] And then definitely and hold his sui they exist

[00:49:46] Apparently

[00:49:49] Rock

[00:49:50] So that's the slug

[00:49:51] It could be a slug

[00:49:53] If we really get flexible

[00:49:56] According to a biophysicist

[00:49:58] Steelix is a slug

[00:49:59] That's the word

[00:50:00] Charger

[00:50:00] Shiny Pornigon Z

[00:50:02] Same argument

[00:50:03] It's obviously not a slug

[00:50:05] But it could be

[00:50:06] The digital analogue of a slug

[00:50:08] It's a good digital slug

[00:50:09] Its body is made

[00:50:11] It's got all that of information

[00:50:12] And see

[00:50:13] That's what I argued actually

[00:50:15] That's why I allowed him to have Pornigon in the first place

[00:50:18] Even though as we'll get into

[00:50:19] I'm not sure that slugs can have like sharp corners

[00:50:22] And be pointy and stuff

[00:50:23] So doesn't have sharp corners

[00:50:24] Pornigon Z

[00:50:26] Doesn't

[00:50:27] And because I think it's a digital

[00:50:29] Construction even though I took some heat

[00:50:32] On ex the site formerly known as Twitter

[00:50:34] I took the heat on behalf of Tanner

[00:50:36] And I defended the Pornigon Z

[00:50:38] I do think is a slug

[00:50:39] And it's a digital cluz-

[00:50:41] Baby

[00:50:42] And you know the other things that slugs can do

[00:50:44] I think she's wet

[00:50:45] Slugs can release parts of their body

[00:50:48] As bait

[00:50:48] And then regrow them

[00:50:50] And if you haven't noticed

[00:50:51] Pornigon Z's head isn't even attached to its body

[00:50:54] It's not

[00:50:55] Wow

[00:50:55] So that was one of my questions

[00:50:57] If you chopped off part of a slug

[00:50:58] We'll regen it

[00:51:00] So I don't think you can like cut it in half

[00:51:03] Necessarily

[00:51:04] But it does use some of its body as bait

[00:51:07] In like a kind of way to defend itself

[00:51:10] Or get things to come near it

[00:51:12] Because if it wants to escape a pander

[00:51:14] It can just like

[00:51:14] Pop off part of its body

[00:51:16] It amputates part of its tail

[00:51:17] And then

[00:51:18] Well that's cool

[00:51:18] It runs away

[00:51:20] I wish I could do that

[00:51:21] Yeah, it's mostly

[00:51:22] Stubborn on Z

[00:51:24] But

[00:51:24] And then we

[00:51:25] There's slime armor alpha goodger

[00:51:27] You've already checked

[00:51:28] So it's five for six

[00:51:30] That one's pretty

[00:51:30] And then hug's water

[00:51:32] Manifee

[00:51:33] Okay

[00:51:33] 75

[00:51:34] So I am going to argue

[00:51:36] That Manifee is the most slug

[00:51:38] Of all the Pokemon on your team

[00:51:40] Here's why

[00:51:41] If you go to the ball with pd

[00:51:43] There's a very important fact about

[00:51:45] Manifee

[00:51:46] 80% of its body is water

[00:51:48] And

[00:51:49] Wow

[00:51:49] Slugs are 80% water

[00:51:51] Very important fact about slugs

[00:51:53] So we'll have the line

[00:51:54] You know that

[00:51:55] There's a lot of water in humans

[00:51:56] That is true

[00:51:57] Well we have bones

[00:51:59] We have bones

[00:52:00] We definitely have bones

[00:52:02] The other interesting thing about Manifee

[00:52:04] So one of the reasons why I went to

[00:52:06] Ball with pd is to look at their attacks

[00:52:08] To kind of an idea

[00:52:09] What they can do with their body

[00:52:11] And one attack

[00:52:12] Manifee can learn

[00:52:13] Cross with a face

[00:52:14] Acid armor

[00:52:15] And that is like admitting

[00:52:17] So can good

[00:52:17] A mucus from your body

[00:52:19] So it actually

[00:52:21] Manifee almost clicks all of the boxes

[00:52:23] Of what defines a slug

[00:52:25] Big slug energy

[00:52:26] And it doesn't really have feet

[00:52:28] Learn

[00:52:29] Passive armor

[00:52:30] I think I was figuring out his loopholes

[00:52:32] For the next round

[00:52:33] All right

[00:52:33] So actually it seems like

[00:52:35] Doug Farmer slug charmer's final team

[00:52:39] Passes the test

[00:52:40] Shit

[00:52:40] I would

[00:52:41] I would say that

[00:52:42] With a couple of

[00:52:43] A couple ones we have to really make spherical cows

[00:52:47] Otherwise

[00:52:48] Not that bad

[00:52:49] Stands up to the scientific method

[00:52:51] Doctor approved

[00:52:52] Manifee was a great choice

[00:52:54] I was very surprised

[00:52:55] We realized that

[00:52:56] Admitical Pokemon

[00:52:58] Is really just a slug

[00:52:59] It's just a slug

[00:53:01] Well, I do a lot of research

[00:53:03] Before I choose my theme

[00:53:05] Yeah you can tell

[00:53:06] He does it's not like

[00:53:07] He's not just like pulling from the hip on those

[00:53:09] To make sure I can have more than six

[00:53:11] I will mention also

[00:53:12] My wife mentioned that she thought

[00:53:14] Ditto was a slug

[00:53:16] Now

[00:53:16] The cool thing

[00:53:17] And counter to that

[00:53:18] Manifee is a weird Pokemon

[00:53:20] It's a mythical Pokemon

[00:53:21] But it can be bred

[00:53:22] And it can only be bred with one other Pokemon

[00:53:24] Do you know a Pokemon that is

[00:53:25] Ditto

[00:53:26] Ditto

[00:53:27] Just ditto

[00:53:27] Because ditto can be bred with anyone right

[00:53:29] Yes

[00:53:30] So it can only be bred with ditto

[00:53:32] And weird

[00:53:33] Or ditto is the slug

[00:53:34] So there's definitely no bones in there

[00:53:36] There's definitely no bones in there

[00:53:37] What is this body made out of

[00:53:39] I don't really know

[00:53:40] I always think of it as

[00:53:42] Like a stem cells

[00:53:43] Gellos

[00:53:43] It's like a jello made of stem cells

[00:53:45] Yeah, it's very unclear

[00:53:47] But it can breed with

[00:53:48] It's like a slug made of stem cells

[00:53:49] Sorry

[00:53:50] To your wife's point

[00:53:51] And the weird thing is when

[00:53:52] Manifee and ditto breed

[00:53:54] They don't make Manifees or ditos

[00:53:55] They make bones

[00:53:57] Fions

[00:53:58] And right

[00:53:59] Eons are basically also so

[00:54:00] The ways

[00:54:01] The ways that the Pokemon

[00:54:02] They're also the work

[00:54:03] Not a evolution

[00:54:05] On the evolutionary line

[00:54:06] Which is Manifees

[00:54:07] So therefore completely useful

[00:54:08] Completely different Pokemon

[00:54:10] That just happen to look

[00:54:11] Almost the same

[00:54:12] Very strange

[00:54:13] Well you're the scientist

[00:54:14] You know all about that stuff

[00:54:16] Evolutionary dead ends

[00:54:17] You have nothing in there

[00:54:19] It honestly seems

[00:54:20] Like the fun of the cloud

[00:54:21] A fully inferior Manifee

[00:54:23] I'm not really sure I understand

[00:54:25] No, I caught all the fun

[00:54:26] They have the same stats

[00:54:27] And the furiating

[00:54:29] Yeah

[00:54:29] You would blow a

[00:54:31] National deck slot on fion

[00:54:33] Yeah, I don't make any sense

[00:54:34] Let's do a couple

[00:54:35] Couple of a

[00:54:36] Couple of other ones from

[00:54:37] The rest of the season

[00:54:38] Well we have to talk about our battle

[00:54:39] Really quick

[00:54:40] Oh, because then we have to talk

[00:54:41] About what happens at the end of the battle

[00:54:42] We have this big final fantasy battle

[00:54:44] With

[00:54:45] Vola

[00:54:46] Which is how you got your nickname

[00:54:47] By the way

[00:54:48] We had to believe it at the beginning

[00:54:49] Also welcome to the show

[00:54:51] My cardio

[00:54:52] I will

[00:54:53] Lucario

[00:54:54] My cardio

[00:54:55] Yeah, you got it

[00:54:55] Because Volo has a

[00:54:57] Lucario

[00:54:58] And Volo

[00:54:59] Makes you fight them

[00:55:00] And then

[00:55:01] Volos got a hell of a team

[00:55:03] Spiritume

[00:55:03] Toja Kis

[00:55:04] Arcanine

[00:55:05] Garchomp

[00:55:05] Rosarade

[00:55:06] It's a cardio

[00:55:07] All level 68

[00:55:08] One of the hardest battles

[00:55:10] I played

[00:55:11] Probably the hardest since

[00:55:13] Cynthia

[00:55:13] I would say

[00:55:14] Me too

[00:55:14] Garchomp was definitely the hardest

[00:55:16] I feel like Toja Kis is the bigger problem for you

[00:55:18] Because Toja Kis was a huge problem for me

[00:55:21] Also

[00:55:22] Shotded out of this guy with Portagons

[00:55:23] I did teach one of the moves

[00:55:26] That I taught to

[00:55:28] Samarot was ice beam

[00:55:30] When I was doing the training

[00:55:31] And that was super helpful in this whole situation

[00:55:33] And play rough

[00:55:34] I opened with Luxray

[00:55:36] Who was able to one shot spiritume

[00:55:39] And spiritume

[00:55:40] I think historically

[00:55:41] In my experience is

[00:55:43] One of the most

[00:55:44] Horrifying Pokemon

[00:55:45] To actually go up against

[00:55:46] So I got lucky

[00:55:48] That's an interesting one

[00:55:49] It's spiritume

[00:55:50] Toja Kis

[00:55:51] Just a slug sticking out of it

[00:55:52] Well it's a snail

[00:55:53] Sorry

[00:55:54] Well I think it is habits

[00:55:56] The little rock thing that's underneath it

[00:55:59] But it's only in its ghost dark

[00:56:00] So you have a lot of leeway there

[00:56:02] Yeah, it's attached to the rock

[00:56:04] It's a ghost that jump how

[00:56:06] Comes out of the rock

[00:56:08] Oh no

[00:56:09] Because that's kind of like a shell

[00:56:10] Is it

[00:56:11] That's like a foot

[00:56:13] Looks like a foot to me

[00:56:14] It does kind of look like a foot

[00:56:16] It could be like a slug attached to a stone

[00:56:18] One two three four

[00:56:19] Oh no there's five appendages coming up

[00:56:21] There are there's a few

[00:56:22] There's one too many

[00:56:24] It is a sweet looking Pokemon

[00:56:26] This is a male we're looking at

[00:56:27] This is a male

[00:56:29] Both

[00:56:30] The image

[00:56:31] Spiritume has genders

[00:56:32] Yeah, it's actually about to check the spiritume of genders

[00:56:35] It feels like

[00:56:37] It can learn all of the attacks

[00:56:39] And one of those is toxic

[00:56:41] And

[00:56:42] Excreting venom

[00:56:43] Yeah exactly

[00:56:45] Just really venomous mucus maybe

[00:56:47] All right

[00:56:48] Keep playing it could get a spiritume

[00:56:50] It's in the game

[00:56:51] Take down Volo out of the

[00:56:53] To tear in space time

[00:56:55] It rubs

[00:56:56] Definite slug

[00:56:57] Gyrotina

[00:56:59] Okay

[00:56:59] Although not in

[00:57:01] I will say to the point you're about to make

[00:57:04] Not in this form

[00:57:05] So which part are we talking about?

[00:57:07] It's origin so this is a three-part battle

[00:57:10] Yeah

[00:57:10] Normal battle with Volo

[00:57:12] Then Gyrotina

[00:57:14] In its normal like mini leg

[00:57:16] Ugly form

[00:57:17] Dynasties form

[00:57:18] But then there's a third part

[00:57:21] And it turns into worm slash

[00:57:24] Snake or slugs

[00:57:25] Just looking

[00:57:26] By the way

[00:57:27] Yeah, I don't know if you remember Josh

[00:57:30] Yeah they're right at the bar

[00:57:31] Are worm slugs

[00:57:31] We had a discussion about Gyrotina

[00:57:34] Because I think Gyrotina is close to a slug

[00:57:37] It's like a slug with some armor on it

[00:57:40] Yeah

[00:57:40] Well look at its origin for me

[00:57:42] Yeah the origin for me is great

[00:57:44] It looks great

[00:57:45] I'm always disappointed

[00:57:46] It is an improvement as well

[00:57:47] I love Gyrotina and Pokemon Go

[00:57:50] But the regular form

[00:57:52] The origin form sucks

[00:57:54] But Gyrotina looks badass in the origin form

[00:57:56] And it is a slug in origin form

[00:57:58] So viable

[00:57:59] But I didn't catch it

[00:58:01] I just killed Volo

[00:58:03] And sent him back to hell

[00:58:05] Ah that's right

[00:58:06] Vanished them to hell

[00:58:07] And then I'm free

[00:58:08] I'm in the woods

[00:58:09] I'm gonna do whatever I want

[00:58:10] Let's talk about some of the other slugs we encountered

[00:58:12] Along the slugs we met along the way

[00:58:15] Yes

[00:58:16] So

[00:58:16] Just this episode before it came on Mike

[00:58:18] Creselia

[00:58:19] Slug

[00:58:20] We called it a moon slug

[00:58:21] Okay so some slug

[00:58:22] Oh sorry

[00:58:23] You said Gyrotina physiology

[00:58:25] You probably don't know a lot about moon physiology though

[00:58:28] I mean

[00:58:28] You know about this one might be outside of your pay grade

[00:58:30] There is

[00:58:31] There is astro-bio-physics or something like that

[00:58:34] I know nothing about that

[00:58:36] Okay

[00:58:37] But a PhD there

[00:58:38] It could be what a slug would look like on the moon

[00:58:40] It looks pretty space adjacent

[00:58:43] Well

[00:58:44] And it is like the moon or Pokemon

[00:58:46] It drops things called lunar feathers

[00:58:49] And can a slug have feathers

[00:58:51] So that's where I would say

[00:58:52] I don't think slug is gonna have feathers

[00:58:55] And

[00:58:56] And tether-like appendages

[00:58:57] It doesn't really have that some

[00:58:59] That's some layman like Josh would call a feather

[00:59:03] It doesn't quite have

[00:59:05] Many attacks

[00:59:07] That could make it seem like it emits mucus

[00:59:10] Except for potentially missed

[00:59:13] It can learn missed

[00:59:14] And like maybe the mist comes out of your body

[00:59:16] The other thing it has going for is body slam

[00:59:19] Because if you imagine you wear a slug Pokemon

[00:59:22] And you're just one big muscle

[00:59:23] You're slamming your body into them

[00:59:25] Now I know body slamsters to use slam their body

[00:59:28] I'm not really sure I understand how Creselia

[00:59:30] Slams people's bodies

[00:59:32] Hey Gents

[00:59:33] Hey Gents

[00:59:34] Sorry

[00:59:34] Hey Gents

[00:59:35] Oh no

[00:59:36] Sorry to back us up a little bit

[00:59:38] Let me pop into the chat here

[00:59:40] Oh

[00:59:41] Tanner's found some literature

[00:59:42] I hope it's not from Furofinity. Don't know

[00:59:44] It's definitely gonna be

[00:59:46] He's linked to something called iNaturalist.org

[00:59:50] Feather-Alyd

[00:59:52] Fiona-Pinata

[00:59:54] Common name Fiona is a species of small, phthalgic,

[00:59:57] new to branch

[00:59:59] Princess E.C. Slug

[01:00:00] A marine gastropod, Mollusk, in the super family

[01:00:04] With her feathers

[01:00:04] Mia-no-Dia

[01:00:05] Mainly on barnacles, specifically goose barnacles

[01:00:08] In the genus

[01:00:09] Not interesting. Stop reading about its diet

[01:00:11] It has feathers

[01:00:12] Hey we're here! This is like a

[01:00:14] Rear Rainbow basically

[01:00:16] We're just here to tell the feathers

[01:00:17] The more they should know

[01:00:18] Here's what I'm gonna say

[01:00:19] They're not actual feathers

[01:00:21] They just look like feathers

[01:00:23] There's no link with them

[01:00:25] There are actual feathers

[01:00:26] They look like feathers

[01:00:27] To these lay people like Josh

[01:00:29] But Melis-But

[01:00:31] Counter to that is in modern day Sino

[01:00:35] In modern day Sino

[01:00:36] Crasselia still has lunar feathers

[01:00:39] And they are still called that

[01:00:40] Which implies

[01:00:41] As the science advanced

[01:00:43] People were still classifying them as feathers

[01:00:46] Clinging to their tradition

[01:00:47] Unless you're making the Jurassic Park argument

[01:00:49] We're like

[01:00:50] You know making the Jurassic Park argument

[01:00:52] The raptors and everything started off

[01:00:54] With they just have to

[01:00:55] You wanted to touch Ootom

[01:00:56] Look we still call them Feather-Sugs

[01:00:59] And maybe we still call them lunar feathers

[01:01:02] Because it just sounds nice

[01:01:03] I will say I scroll down on that

[01:01:06] I natras website a little bit farther

[01:01:08] And there is a description of the snail penis

[01:01:11] I...

[01:01:13] So the snail can't do a pack of feathers

[01:01:15] So the spiritum is a snail

[01:01:17] Check

[01:01:18] Oh right, I guess I should have

[01:01:19] That should have been my first question actually

[01:01:21] Was whether or not slugs can have penises

[01:01:24] Yeah which they can

[01:01:26] As many as they want

[01:01:27] Yeah

[01:01:27] As many as they want

[01:01:29] You wanted to talk about rotom

[01:01:31] Yeah okay

[01:01:33] You have to get into the rotom issue

[01:01:34] So I was thinking about rotom

[01:01:36] I have one more after that too

[01:01:38] Because if we're willing to say

[01:01:40] That Poryon Z being made purely out of information

[01:01:44] Is like the information equivalent

[01:01:46] Of the water and a slug

[01:01:49] Can you say that about rotom

[01:01:50] That like electricity

[01:01:51] That's what I trusted it

[01:01:52] Maybe

[01:01:53] But it doesn't really

[01:01:55] It's a word with electricity

[01:01:58] And it doesn't emit like an electric mucus

[01:02:01] It actually like goes inside things

[01:02:03] Right

[01:02:04] There is a wash rotom

[01:02:06] It does, it goes into a washing machine

[01:02:09] That's the water type one

[01:02:10] I feel like that's more like going into a shell

[01:02:13] So maybe you could argue it's a snail

[01:02:15] Yeah I don't think it's a slug

[01:02:17] Sorry let me ask you this

[01:02:19] Dr. Levine

[01:02:20] Is there a type of slug

[01:02:23] That goes into and out of a shell

[01:02:26] And can kind of go back and forth between

[01:02:28] Being a slug in a snail

[01:02:29] Well there is a research question about

[01:02:32] Our slugs just snails looking for a shell

[01:02:35] You can find this on

[01:02:37] What state do you think poses this question

[01:02:39] What state in the US

[01:02:40] Forra

[01:02:41] Alabama

[01:02:42] It is on the Iowa Department of Natural Resources website

[01:02:47] This is

[01:02:49] The state of the people of Iowa have to know

[01:02:51] They have to know

[01:02:52] This was apparently a hot topic in 2000

[01:02:54] They will jerry mandor until they can get to the bottom of that being wrong

[01:02:59] This very short article that they did in Israelis on

[01:03:03] Has 18,000 views

[01:03:05] So the people of Iowa

[01:03:06] That's pretty much all of Iowa

[01:03:07] As I understand it

[01:03:08] It's like a what's what they vote on

[01:03:11] Yeah so that's where it brings them out to the poll

[01:03:13] Stants

[01:03:14] If that's not on the ballot

[01:03:17] Nobody is going out to vote

[01:03:18] Apparently slugs have something that looks like

[01:03:22] It used to be a shell in their body

[01:03:25] But it's usually inside their body

[01:03:27] Not outside their body

[01:03:28] So yeah right

[01:03:30] That feels uncomfortable

[01:03:32] Get into some complex topics pretty soon

[01:03:34] So I'm going to redirect

[01:03:37] I don't think

[01:03:37] Talk about

[01:03:38] I don't think we're a tough is this like

[01:03:40] Who's your last one

[01:03:41] Well I realize I have two

[01:03:43] No I'm sorry

[01:03:45] Who's your next one

[01:03:45] I think based on the

[01:03:47] Maniface situation

[01:03:49] The late guardians are probably going to get cleared

[01:03:51] Okay so I was wondering about this

[01:03:54] They have feet we decided

[01:03:56] They very clearly have feet

[01:03:58] But what about this corporeal form versus ethereal form situation

[01:04:02] That is a good question

[01:04:04] Seemingly projecting a version of themselves

[01:04:08] And it looks like it may or may not have bones in a manifee way

[01:04:12] But there's nothing if I recall

[01:04:14] From the public media that indicates that they are full of water

[01:04:17] Or error

[01:04:19] They're not full of water

[01:04:21] They're more like pixies

[01:04:23] And I don't think we would say that

[01:04:24] Pixies are slugs or snails

[01:04:27] I'm not even interested in them

[01:04:29] I don't want them

[01:04:30] Darkry though

[01:04:31] We would build a slug right

[01:04:32] So

[01:04:33] Okay

[01:04:33] And I have evidence on this one

[01:04:35] So if I can open this up

[01:04:37] You have evidence

[01:04:38] I like it

[01:04:39] So I missed when you got your PhD

[01:04:42] Dr. Fiel said

[01:04:43] Well as we

[01:04:45] Why am I interested in your opinion on this

[01:04:47] As we've detailed in an earlier episode

[01:04:51] I've handled a lot of slimy

[01:04:54] Salamanders, frogs, slugs and that kind of thing

[01:04:58] So I may not have a PhD in it

[01:05:01] But

[01:05:01] And you haven't even put in mug and glide

[01:05:03] Well it's 10,000 hours like I have

[01:05:04] Did we just simultaneously send the same thing

[01:05:08] Is it?

[01:05:09] Yeah

[01:05:09] We did

[01:05:10] It's been brought to my attention

[01:05:14] That in the anime

[01:05:16] Dark and slide

[01:05:17] Perfectly

[01:05:18] Can have ways

[01:05:19] This is a perfect example of what I'm talking about

[01:05:21] And why he's a slug

[01:05:23] Josh

[01:05:23] Because you see, I'll let you do this like

[01:05:25] Point counterpoint

[01:05:26] You've got in this

[01:05:27] I'm glad we're all looking at the same picture here

[01:05:29] You've got this piece of like dark coral

[01:05:31] I'm not sure what that is

[01:05:32] And then you've got the red slug

[01:05:34] Here on

[01:05:35] Like it's kind of attached to the dark coral

[01:05:37] And then it's like

[01:05:39] Putting out some kind of like

[01:05:40] Tongue or appendage

[01:05:42] Or something

[01:05:42] That I think it uses to like

[01:05:44] Catch small shrimp

[01:05:46] So your argument is that

[01:05:48] Darkrai is only the red part of darkrai

[01:05:51] That's a zardine

[01:05:52] And the white part

[01:05:53] I argue with the

[01:05:54] He's crilly jack skeleton

[01:05:56] This is Pokemon Jack Skeleton

[01:05:59] And Jack Skeleton

[01:06:00] That's a good point

[01:06:01] Is a skeleton

[01:06:02] He is definitely not a slug

[01:06:04] Or a snail

[01:06:05] I guess I'm not seeing Jack Skeleton

[01:06:07] Do you mean like on top of the piece of

[01:06:09] Like dark coral

[01:06:11] I think there's just a

[01:06:12] Perponderance of evidence of like

[01:06:14] A lot of appendages

[01:06:16] That darkrai can have

[01:06:18] Like arms and legs

[01:06:20] Of the like plain of existence

[01:06:23] That it ex

[01:06:24] It lives on

[01:06:25] That's just too many

[01:06:26] Legs and arms

[01:06:27] And a bunch of other shit

[01:06:29] I thought with it a few times this week

[01:06:31] It's pretty crazy that

[01:06:32] There if you look at

[01:06:33] The darkrai legs

[01:06:35] Page on bobedia

[01:06:37] People have been uploading pictures

[01:06:39] Of specifically the legs

[01:06:41] Of darkrai

[01:06:42] Since 2011

[01:06:44] One user submit four

[01:06:46] On a day of

[01:06:47] Four different views of darkrai's legs

[01:06:49] From the anime

[01:06:50] And then a year later

[01:06:51] Someone named patty man

[01:06:52] Was like

[01:06:53] Here's a new one

[01:06:54] Here you go, gents

[01:06:55] Well

[01:06:56] I'm best heard to admit

[01:06:58] That was me

[01:06:59] That was you

[01:07:00] You're making that argument for decades

[01:07:03] You like called me being

[01:07:06] Doug Farmer

[01:07:07] Like

[01:07:07] Here's an advance

[01:07:08] Yeah

[01:07:09] I gotta get ahead of this

[01:07:11] All right, I gotta go

[01:07:12] It's getting late here

[01:07:13] In old Hesui

[01:07:15] Any others that you just want to

[01:07:16] Like sound off on

[01:07:17] Mike that you are

[01:07:18] Pretty confident or slugs

[01:07:20] Tiagoa pucke and not slugs

[01:07:21] I know that Josh has this

[01:07:23] When you give it the adamant

[01:07:24] Orp pucke

[01:07:25] It becomes

[01:07:26] Slightly more like a slug

[01:07:27] Yeah, but they're origin

[01:07:29] Form

[01:07:30] So it loses two arms

[01:07:32] I've seen their origin

[01:07:33] Forms quite a bit

[01:07:34] Because pucca on go

[01:07:35] This weekend

[01:07:36] They were all over New York City

[01:07:38] The origin forms of pucke and douga

[01:07:40] I probably caught like

[01:07:42] Hundreds of them

[01:07:43] Because I love

[01:07:43] Jump on one

[01:07:44] Origin-formed diagoa

[01:07:45] Right in the broadway

[01:07:47] Clearly has armor

[01:07:48] Clearly has four legs

[01:07:50] Like definitely

[01:07:51] Not a slug

[01:07:52] More like a centaur

[01:07:54] Which is still pretty badass

[01:07:56] They are centaurs

[01:07:57] Our centaur slugs

[01:07:58] No

[01:07:59] No

[01:08:00] Well, I guess

[01:08:01] While we have

[01:08:02] A doctor slug scientist here

[01:08:04] We should just do unknown hunter D

[01:08:08] Oh yeah

[01:08:10] And

[01:08:12] We can just say what our final numbers were

[01:08:16] On getting all of the unknowns

[01:08:18] And I got 22

[01:08:20] I

[01:08:21] Here's

[01:08:23] Here's what my

[01:08:24] Little eyes

[01:08:25] Did you get brutalized

[01:08:26] At the last

[01:08:27] You know, I love my game rally

[01:08:29] Here's what my

[01:08:30] Unowns spell out

[01:08:31] Nay

[01:08:32] Utt dates

[01:08:33] Nay Utt date

[01:08:34] Sorry, don't have S

[01:08:35] I don't have any

[01:08:36] Up so basically

[01:08:37] Because you

[01:08:38] No

[01:08:38] Fix

[01:08:38] You have 18

[01:08:40] So I got

[01:08:41] I got six more this week

[01:08:42] So fine

[01:08:44] Bingbong

[01:08:44] And uh

[01:08:45] And Mike

[01:08:46] You're the master hunter

[01:08:47] I take my

[01:08:48] Unowns

[01:08:49] Hunting steak and I drive it into my own heart

[01:08:51] Even though you name the segment

[01:08:53] After yourself

[01:08:54] Are you out of here?

[01:08:55] Unknown not slug

[01:08:57] How could they be slugs

[01:08:58] What is slug

[01:08:59] What is slug like

[01:09:00] Look at i-union

[01:09:01] Look at the exclamation point one

[01:09:02] Or the i-un

[01:09:03] Slug

[01:09:04] i-union

[01:09:05] Or exclamation point

[01:09:06] Their eyes

[01:09:07] They're just floating eyes

[01:09:09] There is

[01:09:10] They have that deep

[01:09:11] Slugs that big

[01:09:12] Beholders

[01:09:13] Are they beholders

[01:09:13] Like in uh

[01:09:14] Now there's slugs

[01:09:15] Actually

[01:09:16] Most of them are

[01:09:17] Unowns are really the holders

[01:09:20] Pokedex

[01:09:21] Check, let's just get out of legs

[01:09:22] You're fucking

[01:09:23] Burris me here

[01:09:24] I had one 92

[01:09:26] Scene 153 caught

[01:09:28] 209 scene

[01:09:29] 178 caught

[01:09:32] I didn't make it close enough

[01:09:34] To the barrier of 200

[01:09:36] Actually

[01:09:37] Try to go for

[01:09:37] Completing the pokedex

[01:09:39] We did both watch

[01:09:41] The

[01:09:43] True ending

[01:09:44] Uh

[01:09:45] Because you don't know

[01:09:47] If and when we will

[01:09:48] Fully complete the pokedex

[01:09:50] I will say that

[01:09:51] This is the first time in um

[01:09:53] Since gen 2

[01:09:54] Where i actually felt compelled

[01:09:56] To catch as many pokedmon as possible

[01:09:58] And go out on weird

[01:10:00] Digs like i found um

[01:10:01] Well it was an easy way to level up our pokedmon too

[01:10:03] Yeah and there's a couple of delightful

[01:10:05] I can't remember the name of the game

[01:10:07] Generate income

[01:10:08] You get so much money if you come back with like

[01:10:10] 60 pokedmon

[01:10:12] Although

[01:10:12] I did not crack uh

[01:10:14] Star rank

[01:10:15] 9. I'm still 8

[01:10:19] I didn't either but i am back in the game

[01:10:21] Because i did get 8

[01:10:21] So i'm back in the program

[01:10:23] I'm actually an evangelist

[01:10:24] I love star rank

[01:10:27] Sort of a war for life

[01:10:28] I think um

[01:10:29] I guess like if we're here

[01:10:31] He eats

[01:10:31] That's what they call us

[01:10:33] You know what i would say

[01:10:34] Soren

[01:10:34] Secret ending is arkius

[01:10:36] You get arkius

[01:10:37] You can have arkius

[01:10:37] Do you have arkius?

[01:10:38] Um

[01:10:39] No we didn't make it that far

[01:10:41] Maybe someday

[01:10:42] But my main comment on that was just going to be

[01:10:45] That uh

[01:10:46] You do not get an explanation

[01:10:48] Beyond arkius saying

[01:10:50] I brought you here from another time

[01:10:53] In order to patch up

[01:10:55] This uh space time problem

[01:10:57] That um

[01:10:58] We'll start it i guess

[01:10:59] But you're stuck here forever

[01:11:01] Enjoy tons of slugs

[01:11:03] Unfortunately

[01:11:04] Both of us are Levine's method

[01:11:06] Yeah

[01:11:06] Fortunately

[01:11:07] The pharma

[01:11:08] Did a good job

[01:11:09] I do wonder

[01:11:10] Because arkius has

[01:11:12] You know

[01:11:12] 18 different forms

[01:11:14] Now they give it the same art

[01:11:16] But is the water arkius a slug

[01:11:18] Oh sure

[01:11:18] Could be

[01:11:19] Yeah

[01:11:19] Could be

[01:11:19] I think it probably is

[01:11:21] All right that's it for us

[01:11:22] And that's it for

[01:11:23] Pokemon legends arkius

[01:11:26] Thank you for joining us

[01:11:45] Reds

[01:11:46] I don't know what Tanner does on there

[01:11:48] I told him to

[01:11:49] Which chop it up

[01:11:49] I don't have the log in still

[01:11:51] He doesn't give it to me

[01:11:52] So

[01:11:53] I don't know what's happening over there

[01:11:54] Hope it's good

[01:11:55] Hope it's not

[01:11:56] What's your problematic

[01:11:59] I think it's probably problematic

[01:12:02] Speaking of problematic

[01:12:03] You can also check us out

[01:12:05] On the subreddit reddit.com slash

[01:12:07] R slash bug catchers

[01:12:09] Mike anything to say

[01:12:10] Um we try to have fun there

[01:12:12] We try to have fun

[01:12:12] We'll post stuff

[01:12:13] We do the level check

[01:12:14] You know people

[01:12:15] Often make posts

[01:12:17] Shitting on Tanner

[01:12:18] Sometimes shitting on Josh

[01:12:20] Especially ones

[01:12:21] You know

[01:12:21] They imply maybe that they weren't going to play the game

[01:12:23] There was a panic

[01:12:24] That you guys were just not going to play the rest of the game

[01:12:27] Luckily it sounds like you did

[01:12:28] But yeah actually didn't

[01:12:29] Because you didn't get arkius

[01:12:30] No you didn't get arkius

[01:12:31] Catch them all

[01:12:32] So if you want to go playing

[01:12:33] You would just be listening to silence

[01:12:35] For three weeks

[01:12:38] If you want to come and complain about how they didn't catch arkius

[01:12:41] We have a whole subreddit just for that

[01:12:43] And if you

[01:12:45] Want to follow our slug scientist here

[01:12:48] Dr. Michael Levine

[01:12:50] Where can they find you

[01:12:51] Yeah, I'm still on ex the website

[01:12:53] Formally known as Twitter

[01:12:54] Just as Michael V. Levine

[01:12:57] I mostly post about magic gathering

[01:12:59] So if you like magic gathering

[01:13:01] You yeah

[01:13:02] Then definitely follow me

[01:13:03] If you like science

[01:13:05] Slug pot that useful

[01:13:07] Lug planes rockers

[01:13:08] They've been getting pretty creative

[01:13:09] With the planes walkers recently

[01:13:11] They'll probably be a slug one eventually

[01:13:13] They just they have a sweet dog

[01:13:14] Plainswalker

[01:13:15] And there's this like one

[01:13:17] Plainswalker that goes in your dreams

[01:13:19] And they don't have like a definite form

[01:13:20] So maybe they're really a slug

[01:13:23] Now they think about it

[01:13:24] That would be kind of cool

[01:13:25] Yeah, they can write

[01:13:26] There's plenty of

[01:13:26] I search magic cards lug in this one

[01:13:28] A lot of slugs

[01:13:30] And to be honest I just

[01:13:31] So I play a lot of online magic these days

[01:13:33] And there's a new card that just came out called slime

[01:13:36] Like slime is against humanity

[01:13:38] And it just makes us oozes

[01:13:40] And I've been really into playing the ooze deck

[01:13:42] And I feel like ooze and slugs

[01:13:43] They're pretty

[01:13:44] Like it groups lug

[01:13:45] There's a theme called groups

[01:13:47] But that means that you're just like

[01:13:48] Beating everyone up

[01:13:49] Rather than specific people

[01:13:51] It's not unfortunately slugs

[01:13:53] Slugs

[01:13:54] Slug fast

[01:13:55] Oosing slugs

[01:13:56] Yeah

[01:13:56] But got my got my antennae up

[01:13:58] Magic is really into ooze

[01:14:00] They're technically tentacles

[01:14:02] Non-entana

[01:14:02] Hey me too, man

[01:14:05] Let's get out of here

[01:14:06] Thank you for joining us

[01:14:07] Dr. Michael Walsh

[01:14:09] We have every day

[01:14:09] Slug scientists

[01:14:10] And a lot of other types of science I guess

[01:14:12] All types of science

[01:14:14] Next week with

[01:14:16] Pokemon Unite

[01:14:17] We all fucking voted for it

[01:14:19] And it's fucking Pokemon Unite

[01:14:20] So we're going back to the AOS region

[01:14:23] Chef Greenring's been whipping up some

[01:14:41] Bug pioneers is dead

[01:14:43] Back to bug catchers

[01:14:44] You were all

[01:14:44] Arceus was merciful

[01:14:46] Enough to send all of you back
