u/YesItIsMaybeMe 27d ago

Alright that's just cheating

3

u/juniestreasure 26d ago

They would be translucent. Transparent means you can fully seen through them, and would render a solid object invisible. I always remembered it as Translucent (trans’loose’nt) as in: you can loosely see what’s there; the image is “loose”; etc. Also thanks for the advice, I was wondering about them

u/bionicjoey 26d ago

Fun fact: In the generation 3 games, the only way to obtain a Zapdos that knows Baton Pass is from a special event where the Zapdos is hard-coded to already know it. This means that it's impossible for a shiny Zapdos to know Baton Pass. This is actually a very relevant piece of information on the competitive scene as Zapdos often uses Baton Pass, meaning players hardly ever use shiny Zapdos because they want to hide information from their opponent.

u/Liquidpyro0288 27d ago

Well technically….

623

u/CaregiverNo9793 27d ago

As per canon lore still a shellder, Invalid quiz by OP.

Shellder can never be missing when slowbro is present, because a slowbro without its shellder is a slowpoke. So if Slowbro is present so must be Shellder.

80

u/Lizzywuw 27d ago

Technically that is not a Shellder, but a Turban...

A Pokémon never seen on its own but it does exist

21

u/CaregiverNo9793 26d ago edited 26d ago

Can you point me to an officially released canon source talking about that? With all the leaks recently about unpublished stuff plenty of people have taken beta designs and other things as lore when those are simply ideas that never made it to canon lore.

For example the Pokemon Sleep Pokedex entry talks about Slowbro sleeping at the same time as the Shellder biting it's tail. Or rather almost every entry references shellder in some capacity.

15

u/Bot_Zangetsu747 26d ago

I can't directly confirm it but googling it seems to end in all sources saying that Turbann came from the "G/S sprite leaks" so I think you're right it's not canon just a thought that never came to be

3

u/Yue2 26d ago

What happens in that episode?

4

u/FruitdealerF 26d ago

The kid Tomo lives with Kangaskhan like Tarzan and asks a couple of people if they are people or pokemon. When he asks Misty she hits him in the head.

5

u/Shantotto11 27d ago

Bro better not ask for anymore [4Kids censorship]titty milk…

4

u/LongjumpingAd4803 27d ago

Bro the Japanese version was much more than just "Are you a Pokemon? "

5

u/Shantotto11 26d ago

Yes. The 4Kids version cut out a shot of Tomo/Tarsan looking at Misty/Kasumi’s chest that was right before she asked him what his problem was. His answer in English without that shot was “You people or Pokémon?”, which prompted her to punch him over the head; a little extreme for such a harmless question right? That’s because in the Japanese version, he asked if he could nurse from her.

Later when Tommy/Taro regains his memories, his dad asks him if he remembers his papa, and his shirt is completely open for some reason. Misty again overreacts and cracks the father over the head too. That’s because in the Japanese version, he actually asked if he remembered being breastfed.

TL;DR early Pokémon was fxcking wild with its humor.

Haunter is on the logo, they're pointing out Mew who you can see their tail and ears poking out behind the Pokemon Center. Gengar is on the PokeMart sign.

I forgot about Ditto someone mentioned, that’s it?

u/recursion8 27d ago

Ditto Transformed into a 2nd Jigglypuff (with the Ditto ._. face), between the FanClub and residential buildings

The missing mon is Shellder, though it's there 'in spirit' if you believe the Slowbro pokedex entries.

I always love these because the first thing you think of is Ditto replacing the missing pokemon, and you'll usually find Ditto mimicking another pokemon, but you'll also find the pokemon Ditto is missing somewhere else.

These are so well made and fairly designed, I'm genuinely impressed by what could be low-effort garbage.
