Balancing Health and Indulgence
00:00:01
Speaker
It's that time of the year again, you know what I mean? Health time. Who's going to the gym? Me. I work out every day now. I ain't got time for that. I need my body to be in tip-top shape for all the bad things I do to it. Like what? What bad things do you do to your body? That's not polite conversation.
Liquid IV: Hydration Multiplier
00:00:20
Speaker
If only there were some sort of, I don't know, liquid that I could put in my body to feel better. Like an IV bag? That's right.
00:00:30
Speaker
I forgot all about Liquid IV, the category winning hydration brand fueling our well-being with their hydration multiplier. It's the one product you're missing in your daily routine. I've been missing it for so long. It's ridiculous. It'll increase your base stat.
00:00:45
Speaker
is this is basically like a rare candy with just one stick. I know what you're thinking. It's right. It's in stick form. You get five essential vitamins, two times faster than hydration than using water alone. Use it as a first thing in the morning. Use it before a workout. Use it before the battle against your long time rival. Use it for a long night out or a long night in, baby.
00:01:06
Speaker
I've been preparing for festival season, as it says. I don't know what festival season is. Anyone preparing for anything? Well, I think you're going to need a lot of juice in you. And the best way to be full of juice is to prepare your body to get three times the water. Festival season is hot out there. It's sweaty. Your body just shoots all the juice you have. You need to keep it in there with liquid IV. It hydrates two times faster than water alone.
00:01:33
Speaker
Three times the electrolytes is what your body craves. Three times more than sports drinks like that Gatorade junk thrown out of here. We don't want that trash. What do you guys love the most about liquid IV? I like that it makes me feel like a Squirtle.
00:01:46
Speaker
That's right, full water, radio squirt it out of your mouth. Sometimes I get hangovers because I'm an old man and I love beer. Liquid IV is great for that. I can attest to that. It helped me during my bachelorette party. Bachelorette parties, bachelor parties, festivals. Did we mention festivals? And the thing is, you could kind of sync up the flavor with what you're doing at that time.
00:02:09
Speaker
Maybe it's, uh, you have too many pina coladas. Why not keep it going with pina colada flavor? There's sea berry. I don't know what that is. I'm a sea man. I'd love sea berry. There's strawberry lemonade, Concord grape, lemon lime, tropical punch, watermelon, strawberry, passion fruit, guava, acai berry. Just with one stick and 16 ounces of water hydrates you two times faster. We're saying fast. Fast hydration. So many vitamins. B3, B5, B6,
00:02:39
Speaker
B12, the B52s, Vitamin C, 3x electrolytes, premium ingredients, only top shelf shit. Non-GMOs, free from gluten, who wants it? Dairy? Make me shit, don't have it. Soy? I'm no soy boy, I don't have that in this. Liquid IV is that equitable access to clean and abundant water. Water. We need it. We're made out of it. Fill yourself with it.

Introducing Daycare Diddos Podcast
00:04:20
Speaker
Because today we're going to talk about the cutest Pokemon based off of the ugliest fish. Welcome to Daycare Diddos.
00:04:31
Speaker
It's definitely cute. He's definitely cute. He's cute. I like him. I was always excited for Jinshow. Always, you say? Yeah, when I learned that there was going to be an electric water type, I said, what type will they think of next? What combos? Electric water types are dope. Yeah, but fun.
00:04:51
Speaker
I love the weird combinations. There's a couple out there. I know Sco-Villain or however you pronounce it is like grass fire. That's a cool combination. It's like the opposite of a chinchou. Yeah. That's that little pepper Pokemon, right? Yeah.
00:05:12
Speaker
There's a couple other ones too that are really cool. Like the Darumaka, that's like a ice fire. Ice fire, yeah. He's a powerhouse. I really liked when Swampert, when I had my first Swampert. I love Swampert.
Exploring Chinchou and Lantern
00:05:30
Speaker
That was a great one. And even before that, we haven't... Well, did we do? We haven't done Wooper yet. So we'll talk about Wooper one day. Did we talk about Wooper? I don't remember.
00:05:42
Speaker
Whooper, but she seems nice and I don't wanna go to jail. Yeah. Oh my God. We haven't talked about Whooper yet. You just stole the line for the intro for that episode. Stolen, I don't have to write another one. There you go. Okay, and we are the Daycare Dittos. As always, I am your host, hostess with the mostest. My name is Peter, and in random order, Dave. Hey, it's me. There's a tiny light on my head.
00:06:12
Speaker
Sarah. It's me. I have two lights on my head. And Steven. Your Steven has been badly poisoned. I love that. It took me forever to realize there is a difference between poisoned and badly poisoned. Is there? I just learned that today. I was today years old. Toxic will fuck you up. Toxic is terrible.
00:06:41
Speaker
Toxics are two layers of poison spikes will give you the badly poison status and that will Like double the damage every turn you take every turn so it starts off They might have changed this mechanic at some point but in with poison you take just a set amount of damage with toxic you take a
00:07:04
Speaker
The first ticket damage is half of the standard poison tick, and then the second tick of poison is a standard poison tick, and then it's two times the standard poison tick, and then it's four times the standard poison tick. Oh my god, until you're just freaking obliterated. But if you switch out, it switches badly poisoned with a regular poison stat.
00:07:26
Speaker
How kind. Yeah. And we're, of course, talking about our favorite poison Pokemon. Just kidding. It's the Electric Water-type Chinchow. The Angler Pokemon. Number 170 out of, I don't know, a thousand. What does this Pikachu look like?
00:07:51
Speaker
Uh, the sprite, it kind of looks like a deflated Kirby. If it's eyes were buttholes and it had two of those, like, uh, two, like sad. It it's like the fallopian tubes in the diagram. Oh my God. Yeah. Yeah. I can definitely see fallopian tube with this little guy.
00:08:19
Speaker
But no, I think he looks like an oddish without his grass and shit with like some weird eyes. His eyes are yellow with black X's in it.
00:08:30
Speaker
And he's got a little, he's got a little tiny mouth that looks like he's about to blow a bubble out of. And he's got like, like two little fins on the side and little legs that don't really make sense. I don't know why it has legs or feet. I guess capable of land travel, despite the deep ocean. Um, I always thought, um,
00:08:52
Speaker
It's like a chow head. Like, I was gonna say it's a chow from Sonic. It does have that look. Yeah, but then like we said, it's got like two little pipe cleaner feelers popping out of its head. And some of the feet yellow, they're like little yellow slippers.
00:09:13
Speaker
I think it changes depending on when you look at the spray. But definitely weird, weird, weird ass eyes. Just two little giant X's for eyes more, basically. Yeah, those eyes are fucked. Yeah, they're strange. Positive magnetism. It's like a smaller aperture in a camera, which would be like low light. Which it needs low light to see. You take pictures, Dave? I've done a picture or two.
00:09:43
Speaker
Wow. I've never taken a picture in my gosh darn life. Actually I was really sad today because I was looking through my photographs like every single photo I ever took and
00:09:55
Speaker
Honestly, 80% of the pictures that I take are work-related
Deep Dive into Anglerfish and Monkfish
00:10:00
Speaker
documents. Fuck work. Legally taken work-related documents that I like damaged shipments that landed that I need to take pictures of to attach to a work-related email to send off.
00:10:18
Speaker
Now you're making me excited by saying that these are the legal photos. Yeah. Where are the illegal ones? Is it like this is the the the butt of the package that was. Yeah, there technically is a big gigantic sign on a door at my work saying no photographs beyond this point. And that's where I take a majority of my photographs. Oh, my goodness. You heard it here. The bad boy of the podcast.
00:10:48
Speaker
I don't give a flip. Yeah. Sometimes I take pictures of Chincha's feet that I didn't know that they had. Yeah, I never picture Chincha with feet. I don't remember it has feet, but sure does. Now I can't stop picturing it. I'm looking up Chincha, live on the air. Don't at me. You see his little feet? I see his feet.
00:11:18
Speaker
how they look like. They're free. Free? They're free. Oh, gosh, he's cuter than I remember. This Pokemon kind of like blew by me. When I saw that it was Chinchou, I could have sworn this was a Gen 3 Pokemon.
00:11:40
Speaker
I thought for sure it was later in J2 at the very least. I did not expect Chincha to be coming up right after like Spinarak and Ferret. I mean, you don't get surf that early.
00:11:56
Speaker
This comes before Mareep and you see a Mareep so much earlier. That's true. Yeah. But I also, for the most part, don't really remember Chincha that much. Mostly I just remember Lantern because Chincha is just kind of a head. It's so funny you say that because I always, when I think of this line, I always think of Chincha before I think of Lantern.
00:12:22
Speaker
I think what it is for me is that I don't really see the transition from Chinchou to Lantern. So I kind of see them as separate. And so when I think of Lantern, I just think of Lantern and when I think of Chinchou, I think of Chinchou, but not as like a group. I definitely have that experience with other Pokemon lines, but not this one. I don't know. I think they're pretty like the continuity is pretty good between the two, in my opinion. But I'm on Steven's side for this. Yeah.
00:12:50
Speaker
I guess maybe once I realized that it's like really trying to play on the anglerfish thing, it made a little bit more sense. But even lantern as an anglerfish, it's too cute to be an anglerfish. Anglerfish are gross. They're so fucking gross. They are. And when I was doing research for this episode, I was really in a deep thought about deep sea fish.
00:13:17
Speaker
And how fucking scary and like mysterious and gross. Yeah, they really are. They are just, I would not want to be on the bottom of the sea floor with fish like that. In all of your research, did you come across how they mate? Because that's the grossest.
00:13:36
Speaker
Oh, with their dicks? Ew. No. I would love to know. I have to know, actually. All right. So picture this, right? You're a giant female anglerfish with transparent fangs, like shards of glass in your mouth and a little a little.
00:13:54
Speaker
dangly flashy bit and you go around the ocean floor where it's quite dark and you try to find your mate and you know down there there's not a lot going on and it's the ocean which is huge right so when you come across your mate you want to make sure that you stay with them so that you can meet properly and give consent if you're coming across them because yeah people don't like that
00:14:20
Speaker
Well, so what the male does, what the male does and the male is about two centimeters while the female is huge. Big size? Body size. Wait a second. Wait a second. How big is the female compared to the male? Let me look that up for you. Is it like a sizable difference?
00:14:39
Speaker
Um, yes, it's huge. Oh man. So, um, a female anglerfish can reach about 35 to 60 centimeters and they can actually, they can, uh, it just, um, what's it called? Like descend their jaw and inflate their stomach to twice their size. Oh my.
00:15:02
Speaker
So you're a tiny little two centimeter male anglerfish and you find your female of choice and you consent to enter into a menager, well, you know, mutual relationship. And what the male does is he bites onto the female and his body produces an enzyme that fuses his body to her body.
00:15:23
Speaker
oh my god you guys okay listeners you have to google this while steven is explaining because the images are horrifying wait a second they're driving sarah is this what the spice girl sang about and two becomes one
00:15:38
Speaker
It finally makes sense now. It can basically be that. Yeah, because the male fuses to the female, becomes parasitic, and receives his nutrients from the female's bloodstream. Just like the Spice Girls song. When the female is ready to lay her egg, the male is there, ready to give her his sperm.
00:16:01
Speaker
a baby anglerfish is made, or multiple, I'm sure, baby anglerfish are made. And that's then the male's body withers away, more or less he just kind of fuses to her body. That is horrifying. Yeah, it's quite gross. I mean, these these fish in general are fucking horrifying. Finds away. So maybe chinchou, do you think chinchou is like the male anglerfish here and then is the female?
00:16:27
Speaker
kind of more or less like the chincha would be the smaller one and then the lantern would be like the the bigger one that actually has the the angler dangly thing like chincha only has like the two little things the old angler dangler man i don't know what to call them that's a huge missed opportunity for uh game freak they should have made chincha 100 male and lantern 100 female that would have been cool um uh you guys ever see a monkfish
00:16:58
Speaker
Yeah, so I I went to a place in Jersey City after work my old job and we went to this nice bar like good food and There is like a special they're like, oh we have the monkfish sandwich. It's incredible and I was so excited I was like, I don't know what that is, but I think I caught one an animal crossing once
00:17:15
Speaker
And this is pre Animal Crossing New Horizons. So it was like, you know, I didn't have that refresher. I ate it. And I will say it is the most delicious fish sandwich I'd ever had in my life. And I was describing it with somebody. And then I googled monkfish and my fucking face, stomach and life went to hell. Like I it's the ugliest fucking thing.
00:17:39
Speaker
It's not just ugly. It looks like like disgusting. Like if imagine like a flat fish that is just very greasy, it looks like it hasn't washed its like body and or mouth since birth. I think it's what Mrs. Big Head and Mr. Big Head are based off of. Oh, definitely. Rocco's Modern Life. They're basically just giant boogers with sharp teeth and eyes. And they're delicious.
00:18:07
Speaker
You're taking them out of their natural habitat and photographing them. You know, if you took me underwater and I would look quite gross. Not like that. Not like this. No, yeah, they're gross underwater too. It looks like it has a layer of like diarrhea all over it.
00:18:23
Speaker
It looks like a flat fish shit with teeth. Like it's disgusting. It's awful. But it's closer to like a stunfisk. I know, but it sucks and I ate it and it was delicious, but instantly my stomach hurt and I wanted to die. It was bad. The monkfish has two nicknames. The poor man's lobster because it's firm, sweet and delicious taste that is similar to lobster tails.
00:18:52
Speaker
And it's also known as all mouth, you know? Yeah, that shit all mouth. That superhero from My Hero Academia. Because the head of the fish takes up most of the body. What that mouth do. Yeah.
00:19:10
Speaker
Uh, give Dave an existential crisis. That's what that mouth do. I want to eat this fish now. It's a real good fish to eat. It was very tasty. Let's go. I think I'm good. Let's go cruising. Cruising for all mouth. Oops, all mouth. Oops, all mouth. I'll find some all mouth. We'll find, that's going to be a goal. We'll find a place that serves all mouth for you, Peter. Okay. That sounds good.
00:19:33
Speaker
Um, and now I'm hungry. Honestly, nothing like that. Nothing about the only thing that's ever really turned my appetite off was way back in the Diglett episode where I read about that.
00:19:51
Speaker
guy who wanted to eat every single animal and ate a mole once and said it was the most putrid tasting thing that he ever eaten.
Childhood Curiosities and Odd Tastes
00:20:01
Speaker
So now I can't think about eating a mole, but I do want to eat every other thing.
00:20:11
Speaker
That would be a great food network. Like, hi, I'm Peter, and I'm going to eat everything. Everything. But not moles. But not moles. Yeah. Peter, what are you trying this week? Well, looks like we're doing erasers. All erasers. One's attached to pencils. One's attached to erasable pens. Shit, I've eaten eraser before. Dude, me too, honestly. Boring episode, then.
00:20:35
Speaker
um they've got a good texture you know you just want to bite them i don't know honestly there's it's kind of forbidden and it's kind of good yeah yeah forbidden fruit there you there you go what else have uh we all eaten i've eaten chalk before oh hell no chalk is is fun chalk is good um i've i've eaten straight up dirt
00:20:58
Speaker
Play-doh. Play-doh is great. Nice and salty. Fucking crayons. Gotta have them. Glue.
00:21:06
Speaker
Glue is not bad, I gotta say. Glue's not bad, man out of horses. Chapstick, yes. My sister definitely had like a Dr. Pepper Chapstick that I ate once. The producer of my last podcast, producer Chib of Calling All Creeps, she worked at Lush. She was a manager at Lush. And one thing that I used to do at that time to make people mad is I would taste all the soap.
00:21:36
Speaker
So they'd have all the soaps and I would just lick one spot. And it would be really funny because you'll see all the glitter and everything. And there would just be like one circle that wasn't dusty. Oh my God, that's gross. I tasted their soaps. Everybody's had butter thinking it was ice cream at one point or another, or soap thinking it was butter. Or salt thinking it was sugar. Yeah, we've all been there. Um,
00:22:02
Speaker
Well, let's think about tasty Pokemon. Let's think about Chinchou. So one thing I like about the Pokedex entries for Chinchou is that they'll always talk about its antenna. But in the anime, Ash's Pokedex says, Chinchou, the angler Pokemon, have the ability to conduct electrical currents from their two tentacles
00:22:32
Speaker
okay because it was an anime they gotta make it horny they were like pushing up against the hentai because it's not called tentacles anywhere but that point in the anime also you can tell the difference between pokedex entries my favorite ones are when they talk about discharge other times i'll talk about electricity but every now and then they'll be like throw some discharge in there and that's why
00:22:58
Speaker
Chinchou is cute because it loves to discharge and it's got tentacles. Discharge is a great electric type move. It has a 30% chance of paralyzing and it hits both opponents on a battlefield. But if your special is discharging, see a doctor. I mean, you've got to have a good special because it is actually a special move. Yeah.
00:23:24
Speaker
What do you think, a wild charging? That's a physical type move. Well, Dave, to add to your point, one of the Pokedex entries says that this Pokemon's cells create so much electrical power, it even makes itself tingle slightly. I love, that's my favorite one. I just love that you see it, you send your Pokemon out, you're like, change out time to battle, it comes out, it's like, ew. Yeah, I was going to say, did anyone get the feeling that tingle equals orgasm or just me?
00:23:54
Speaker
I mean, I know the tingle that they're talking about because I've actually tried to eat a 9 volt battery once. When's the show? It's your turn. Have you ever taken a 9 volt battery to your tongue?
00:24:09
Speaker
Yes. No, it's it's you get a little tingly feeling. Do you? It sucks. Don't do it. It's the worst feeling in the world. I've also my hand is slipped and I've touched the metal prongs when the thing is in the outlet and got shocked once before. Yeah, it's not fun. I put a wet hand into a I uncovered light switch socket once.
00:24:35
Speaker
I slapped the back of an open CRT while it was still plugged in. Oh, geez. I thought it was unplugged because that's how we fixed it. It was a free TV we found on the side of the road just for playing Mario Kart 64. Yo, free TV, expect to die. So I slapped it and it was plugged in and it was the worst shock I'd ever received in my life. You are lucky to be alive. Yes, I am.
00:24:59
Speaker
It was bad. Like to the point where it shocked me so hard that I pulled the muscle and like my bicep hurt and my neck hurt. Wow. Holy shit. The best I can come up with is rubbing a balloon in my hair and shocking everyone else around me. The capacitor at the back of a CRT is like one of the things that just kills people that are doing like electrical fiddling the most.
00:25:25
Speaker
would have been a very different world if I died my sophomore year of college on TV that we drew bow wow all over because we love playing Rainbow Road and we used to call him orb dog. He is an orb dog. We knew his name orb dog was just way more funny. If you get hit by him, you just yell and curse orb dog. Imagine you shake your fist in the sky. Yeah.
00:25:54
Speaker
You know, I was looking at the stuff that you've written about past episodes before, and I remembered that when we did Voltorb, you encouraged everybody to ponder thy orb. Oh, yes. And I remember that that was the meme of the century back then.
00:26:14
Speaker
Yeah, I write those things like I have finished editing the episode directly after we've done it. It's getting close to midnight. I need to take a shower. And then after doing all the editing, it's like, hey, got some words to say. I'm always like, all my energy is gone. So the shit it says is always wild and makes no sense. Honestly, I usually have no energy before recording. As soon as I see that it's recording, I'm like, oh, shit.
Podcaster Moods and Motivations
00:26:40
Speaker
Yeah.
00:26:41
Speaker
Here's my second wind. I'm usually like really like frustrated or depressed or sad because we usually do podcasting after work. And then I do the podcast for you guys. I mean, I'm always in a much better mood. Yeah. Yeah. I like to win the games later. Yeah. It's probably going to win the games later. I got to win something. Um, I was also thinking Misty really liked tentacles and tentacles, right? Oh, it makes sense now.
00:27:13
Speaker
She likes to discharge in tingly feelings. Yeah. Cause they got, they got tingly feelers. Yeah. Um,
00:27:23
Speaker
Yes, and as we said during the intro, they hardly ever come up from the depths of the sunless ocean, but they can walk on land if they want to. Yeah, if they feel like it. Sometimes they do, which if you do that to an actual deep sea fish that goes and hangs around a sulfur vent. I mean, could you imagine just being around a sulfur vent your entire life? You'd probably look like that too. It's like a heavy smoker.
00:27:54
Speaker
But what was I saying about that? Well, I know. I think maybe what you're trying to say is like when you take those deep sea fish and you bring them up, they get like depressurized. Yeah. And so I know, too, like if blobfish, what we usually see pictures of is not really what they actually look like, because like they'll look like little mounds of flesh, but it's just because their bodies kind of like depressurized and inflated.
00:28:24
Speaker
you know, divers when they come up from the ocean, if they don't, you know, depressurize properly, they'll get, you know, they'll die. Yeah, or get the bend. Absolutely horrible to deal with. Babies got the bends. Yeah, that's like the best song.
00:28:43
Speaker
I think like I read somewhere there was some guy who did this like deep sea dive and it took him a very short amount of time to do the dive, but then it took him like a really long time to come back up from it, like days even to come back potentially.
00:29:00
Speaker
That's scary. What's the scariest thing is if you have sudden depressurization, you just turn into marinara sauce. Yeah, you just immediately become nothing. Mama Mia. Yeah.
00:29:17
Speaker
Yeah, I, you know, I'm good on land, like all this, like, do you ever get like icebreakers at work where they're like, well, where would you rather explore more outer space or deep sea? I'm like, you know what, I'm good on earth. Okay. Like, I'm just good here. Like flat land. Thank you. Anyway, I think I could do more for my species in outer space.
00:29:39
Speaker
Yeah. Then deep sea. Deep sea, I don't want to fuck with those creatures down there. They scare me more than being exploded by the sun or hit by a meteor or abducted by aliens. If I could do deep sea welding though, that would be a very lucrative career for the two years that I would probably live.
00:29:59
Speaker
I would pee my
Deep Sea Creatures: Fear and Fascination
00:30:00
Speaker
pants every day. Every day. Something about- Yeah, you can. You're under water the whole time. It's actually a perk. I'm drowning in my suit. No visibility. Very like your vision's cut off on the left and the right from your helmet. Some giant fish can come out of nowhere and just
00:30:22
Speaker
I saw a video once of a guy who just got impaled by a swordfish that was moving a little bit too fast while he was deep sea welding. Yeah, I'm good. Yeah. Do they get paid well? Oh, yeah, it's it's a very lucrative job. You just, you know, it's also dying. I think probably statistically one of the top two deadliest jobs. Yeah. Also, don't they mostly do it at night too?
00:30:50
Speaker
Probably. Carl Jerm of the Every FNFF podcast and I went to a wedding in Florida and the Uber driver is a, he was a retired like Navy or Marine or something and he just drives Ubers during the off season and during the day and at night in like the warmer times when it's not like hurricane season, he's an underwater welder and he works on the bridges.
00:31:20
Speaker
Dude, it's like a night job for him. Dude, it's it makes me upset that he has to still be an Uber driver and do that. Oh, he does it for fun because he likes meeting people. Oh, my God. So that's a strange human like that. Yeah. Honestly, if you could put me in.
00:31:39
Speaker
It might actually be a fun job because you're basically not putting me at a desk where I have to listen to somebody else's music or conversation all day. I might be in heaven for a little while. Everybody, you know, if you have the opportunity for underwater welding jobs, you can reach out to the pod and it will hook this boy up.
00:32:01
Speaker
It just hooked me up. Honestly, that might be what I do. Either that, or I go on some sort of deep sea rig. Or like, ooh, Antarctica? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I miss you too much. Here, it's warmer now. And there's that dick shaped. That's the joke of a podcast. Yeah, that usually doesn't come from me.
00:32:28
Speaker
So the orbs on Chinchou's antenna can glow. I don't know if we mentioned that yet, but they light up.
00:32:35
Speaker
from it's discharging. They shoot positive and negative electricity. Yeah. So it could help you jumpstart your car. That would be great. You could also use it. It says in the Pokedex for night fishing or night welding underwater welding. Attach them to your nipples. Like that. Yeah. Wait, it helps if it helps you night fish. Isn't that like being like a total fucking traitor? Yeah, it's yeah. I have a dark Pokemon.
00:33:02
Speaker
I feel like it's just cheating like if I just like ripped open a shark's stomach and said like look how many fish I caught like I Think that counts that's kind of dope I guess so It's like throwing a grenade in a pond you're like I am the best fisherman
00:33:22
Speaker
Yeah, Chinchao's antenna, they evolved from fins. So it probably had extra fins that it turned into these electric tentacles. And they're electric producing cells within them, which differs from the way lantern produces light and electricity.
00:33:46
Speaker
Yeah, that was kind of crazy that they decided like, let's just switch it. It's probably because they didn't have enough info on the Pokemon. Right, right. And Chinchou at least uses it to defend like the light to defend itself and stun its prey. Yeah, I guess in both cases, it's a little bit bioluminescent. Right. Yeah. The Japanese name is Chanchi.
00:34:14
Speaker
That's cute. So it's Chochin is lantern, or Chochin Anko is the football fish, which is the word for the angler fish, like they're called football fish actually. And the
00:34:35
Speaker
vowel sounds in Chinchou's English name are the reverse for the Japanese name like Chonchi. So instead of Chi and Chao, it's Cho, whatever, Chonchi, Chinchou, they're just swapped. Anyway, the French name is Lupio. The Lupiette is a magnifying glass and Lupiatte is a child.
00:35:06
Speaker
And then the German name is Lampy. Oh, yeah. Solid names, I dig them. Yeah. Not not too shabby. Are we approaching level 27? Well, the shiny is like a greenish. It's a little greenish.
00:35:26
Speaker
And the other thing I have to mention is that in doing research, YouTube has now... Maybe it's this one channel, I guess, that it's recommending me, but I just keep getting these videos of different Pokemon attacking Professor Oak. What?
00:35:41
Speaker
Like literally on YouTube it'll just pop up, it'll be like, here's Gligar attacking Professor Oak. Here's Chinshow attacking Professor Oak. They're just like in the anime of Professor Oak hanging out with Pokemon and them attacking him. And it's fun to see those come up. And I saw one with Chinshow, super cute.
00:36:02
Speaker
Special fetishes for everyone. Poor Professor Oak. Well, we've seen him get like, you know, glommed by the mock. That's the most notable one. Yeah, I mean, I'm sure he's been trampled by Tauros before. I feel like I've seen that before. He, I mean, he wants Ash to send him Pokemon. He's woefully underprepared for it when it happens.
00:36:33
Speaker
Yeah. He's like, oh shit, Ash, you actually did it? Damn. Thought you were going to use that Kingler again. Oh man, when he switched from his true blue Pokemon to that Krabby, and that Krabby ended up absolutely wrecking house, I think
00:36:55
Speaker
At one point we did look up the kill death ratio of all of Ash's Pokemon and Krabby's gotta be up there. I want that unhinged energy. I want that energy of like, oh, you left me in the closet all day? Well, now I'm gonna fuck everything up. You watch, I'm gonna show you Ash. It's like when someone goes to prison and all they can do is work out and read the Bible.
00:37:23
Speaker
crabby comes with like the eyedropped tattoos yeah i came here to pray and work out and i'm all out of bibles crab hammer crab hammer for christ well we all know what happens when you get a gigantamax kinglyr and you touch one of the bubbles you turn into a skeleton
00:37:45
Speaker
And when you see the light, you become a level 27 chinchow. There you go. So you have to get your chinchow to be level 27 or higher, and then you can start evolving. And what does the Pikachu that chinchow evolves into look like? I'm just going to say it looks like a dolphin. Yeah. It does. It looks like a dolphin with some lights.
00:38:14
Speaker
and like a ninja mask that's yellow. Strong palofin from the most current generation energy. Like palofin could be like the, you know, boy and then lantern could be like the girl, you know, as Pokemon likes to do. It's like if a Quagsire was a yacht.
00:38:40
Speaker
Kind of. It's like a yellow and blue, cute manatee with a smile and
00:38:57
Speaker
and eyes and just a little. I mean, I noticed the lack of glass razor sharp teeth. There's no distended jaw or inflatable stomach. Yeah, they made it a lot more appealing to look at for good reason. Absolutely. All those weird bumps on it are gone. Like if this was what an anglerfish looked like in real life, I wouldn't be so petrified of the water.
00:39:28
Speaker
I mean, there's so many things to be worried about in the water. Angla fish don't even register. It's probably like, you're saying it would look nice if you saw this, but if you actually saw this thing with its big eyes and shit, I'd be like, fuck no. It's spooky. It is a little spooky. And it's also like three feet, 11 inches, and 50 pounds.
Understanding Lantern in Pokémon Lore
00:40:03
Speaker
I think this was in the new Pokemon Snap, and this was kind of in the level where you start to go down into like the deep ocean, the dark ocean. And it is quite creepy down there. However, Lantern was not one of the things I thought that was creepy. It was like wishy washy and the. That's a different Pokemon. Gastro Dons or whatever they are. Yeah. Oh, Gastro Dons. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They freak me out.
00:40:21
Speaker
Well, scary. I remember
00:40:31
Speaker
Lantern was just nosing his little nose around and trying to find little clam pearls in the sand or something. And I was like, oh, look at you. So cute. Just trying to find a starmie to obliterate in one bite. Yeah. It eats starmie, and its natural predators are frillish and sharpedo. I forget who frillish is entirely.
00:41:00
Speaker
Isn't that like kind of a jellyfish Pokemon? It's kinda cute, right? That's surprising for me. The one that is, there's like the female version and the male version. Yeah, the pink and blue. They look like, yeah. Hmm. Yeah. The one that evolves into Jellicent. Yes, exactly.
00:41:22
Speaker
And those were also in that same Pokemon level as you're like descending down, they're floating up. And I think one of them is like holding a magic harp or something. I have to apologize to you, Steven, because you were talking about the Pokemon wishy washy, but I thought you were calling a lantern wishy washy. Oh.
00:41:44
Speaker
It's just a wishy washy Pokemon. No, yeah, the like spoilers for new Pokemon Snap game, one of the, what are they called? Alumin Max Pokemons or? Aluminous?
00:41:59
Speaker
The boss ones is a deep sea- Illumina. Illumina. One of the ones there is a deep sea photo shoot with wishy-washy. Right, I remember that. And when it's coming out of the dark depths and it looks like a giant shark coming quickly at you, it's quite creepy.
00:42:17
Speaker
I bought the new Pokemon Snap. I lost it. It's still in its casing, right? I lost it. I have no idea where it is. It was still in its case. I think it got lost somewhere in the move. You have to come over and play it here. Yeah, I did play it at my friend's house. He has the worst Joy-Con drift I've ever seen in my life. It was the worst experience.
00:42:44
Speaker
So, Dan and Nintendo fix your, fix your Joy-Gones. I have it too, so we could play it together. Yeah. I would love to snap someday. There's some, some beautiful things you can snap in that game. I still...
00:42:59
Speaker
Like, when you see Suicune under the Aurora Borealis, like, it's just the most gorgeous thing in the world. I still think Meganium was great in that game. Just saying. Yeah. No, honestly, they did such a good job. Yeah, it was a pretty cool game. It chose good Pokemon for the boss Pokemon in that one.
00:43:24
Speaker
Well, Lantern is one of our Pokémon that has a nickname. Oh, yeah, that's a great nickname. It is. They're nicknamed the Deep Sea Star because of their illuminated antenna. And if you peer down into the deep dark sea at night from a ship, you can sometimes see their lights rising from the depths and it gives the appearance of a starlit night. And that is like amazing. That's so beautiful. Sounds beautiful, yeah.
00:43:54
Speaker
So Chinchou is the poor man's lobster and Lantern is the deep sea star. I like that because which Pokemon were we talking about? It was Ladyba that was
00:44:16
Speaker
loved to frolic under the starlight. And now we talk about Lantern, who's the light from the top of its antennae make the deep oceans look like starlight. The Pokemon universe must be so pretty. I was going to say that it's got to be like very beautiful to see. Yeah.
00:44:41
Speaker
It's also quite horrific because Lantern also will blind prey with an intense burst of light and swallow the immobilized prey in a single gulp. Yeah. You know, that doesn't surprise me. At least they stayed true to the anglerfish a little bit. Yeah. The swallowed in single gulp is definitely anglerfish. Yeah. So what they'll do is they'll put the low beams on.
00:45:07
Speaker
they'll have the star me approach it, and then they'll suddenly hit him with the high beams that can be seen for three miles underwater. Yeah, that's kind of crazy three miles. All right, wait, no, great idea, then mega evolution for lantern where the lanterns replaced with LED lights. Why to
00:45:32
Speaker
Every time I hear it's hunting stuff, I think of like, well, it's just before Tears of the Kingdom, I was playing Resident Evil 4. I just think of the Flashbang, or in any game, I think of it being like, oh, there's a star me, and it's like, boof, whee. Everything's like, you know, there's like ghosting on all the images, and you have that high pitched squeal noise. Yeah, the worst is when it's got like,
00:45:59
Speaker
I don't even know what to call this visual reverb or whatever where it kind of glitches. That's the worst. That's a good way to describe that visual reverb.
00:46:12
Speaker
I don't know. Sometimes they'll do that in certain games with the flash bangs where it'll be blurry for a little bit and it makes me really motion sick. Oh, really? Kind of. I get motion sick really easily though. VR is doable for me as long as I don't need to move.
00:46:35
Speaker
One game they made that was like a roller coaster that you could shoot things that was like until dawn, but like a roller coaster shooter. Oh, yeah. That makes me so nauseous because you're like moving on a track, but I'm not moving in real life and my brain just can't handle it.
00:46:57
Speaker
I don't know if I, I think I would agree with you. I think with VR and stuff like that, I don't think I would, I don't think it would sit well with me either. Now that I think about like the mechanics of that. I will like, I'll look at my phone to answer texts when I'm the passenger in the car and I get like sick. So I just try to look forward when I'm driving. Yeah. Lucky for me, whenever I need a ride somewhere, I ask you because
00:47:27
Speaker
I do not like driving. And I do not get motion sick from being a passenger. Yeah. Well, that's why I prefer driving because if I'm going to be doing anything in a car, it might as well be driving. I usually prefer driving too, just because I don't know if anyone else has this, but I get like extreme anxiety when I'm not the driver. Like if I'm sitting in the passenger seat, I have to be looking at my phone or like looking
00:47:55
Speaker
not at the road because otherwise i'm like oh my god we're gonna die oh my god we're gonna crash into something oh my god someone's gonna crash into us i don't know it's very strange you all can drive me anywhere you yeah but i don't get that when i'm when i'm the one driving it's gotta be like a control thing you know if they crash and i die it's a win-win yeah no that's not a win-win peter it's on my car
00:48:21
Speaker
sorry that's uh that's real gen z humor that's me the gen z um fortnight dance yeah flosses walks away
00:48:38
Speaker
Dabbing is even too old. Dabbing is, yeah. Well, that's old now? That's old now. That's ancient. I haven't seen a person. I don't know. I feel like that should, it's just popular. Non-ironically dab. I'm gonna flip a water bottle and dab. Yeah. I mean, you still see dabbing, I'm sure, but I think it's probably like- I see dabbing every day, but the dabbing that I see is somebody smoking weed concentrate, well, at the job.
00:49:05
Speaker
Yeah, you're allowed to. Oh, man. I can't I cannot be high and do my job. No, that doesn't work. Some people just behave high differently.
00:49:22
Speaker
You know, it's true. And I think like the more people I talk to about smoking weed, I feel like everyone has a different experience with it because man, it doesn't matter the strain or whatever. Like I'm just not a functioning human when I'm high. I'm just not. I don't know.
00:49:41
Speaker
A lot of my dreams are just horrific hellscapes. For some reason, when I was little, I must have watched way too many scary movies because things were just rated PG back
Experiences with Smoking Weed
00:50:00
Speaker
then.
00:50:02
Speaker
all of those things burrowed their way into my subconscious and uh for whatever reason when i'm dreaming and when i'm high all those things wiggle to the surface and it's just too scary so i don't get high it's a good reason yeah that's fair the demons catch you the demons catch me it's like indiana jones in the temple of doom
00:50:25
Speaker
There were several, several years where I had like a major panic attack when I had an edible once and I just did not smoke or eat an edible for like five years.
00:50:36
Speaker
And I've kind of like grown out of that, which is nice, but I still get so nervous that I'm just gonna have like a mental breakdown when I smoke weed again. By the way, you're recording this podcast in New Jersey, you fucking cops. Yeah, it's legal here. Take that, cops. I know you're listening, fucking Officer Jenny. I'm not saying I'll never try, but I probably...
00:50:58
Speaker
Well, I mean, you know, I'm an enthusiast, I will be honest. I know quite controversial in this day and age. But I've also had quite a few times where I've freaked out. Peter has witnessed this to a horrible extent. So I'm totally of the mindset, like, do it when you're comfortable, if you're comfortable, if it's for you, and if it's not.
00:51:25
Speaker
Don't worry. I mean, I'm not a drinker at all. I don't drink nearly anything at this point because it just doesn't agree with my body. You should at least drink water. I mean, yeah. Perhaps liquid IV. You know that it gives you three times. Two times? No false advertising here.
00:51:47
Speaker
And it comes in a convenience stick form, which I love. Three times as much as Gatorade. It's crazy. Or Powerade. Top of the grid, Gatorade. Or Powerade. Vitaminwater, get out of town, Vitaminwater. Yeah, but it's good to know that you like a little bit of the dank oddish or the awesome blossom. The odia wonderum. I like it. It just depends, man. Like, lately it's been fine, but man, like,
00:52:15
Speaker
There was one time where I really, I freaked out and I knew it was bad because I was watching Avatar the Last Airbender. And I wasn't enjoying it. And that was the first time where I was like, something's got to be wrong. And then my friend ordered like a square pizza from Domino's. She was like, let's get something to eat. Maybe that'll make you feel better. So we ordered Domino's. And when it came, it was square. And I was like, why did you order a square pizza?
00:52:44
Speaker
And she's like, because I like square pizza. And I was like, I don't know who you are. So, yeah, I mean, it doesn't sound bad, but on the inside, I was having a real bad time.
00:52:58
Speaker
Square pizza is fairly efficient. It's not efficient to make, but it's efficient in terms of box to pizza ratio. Yeah. I think for me, it was just the fact that we were getting Domino's. And when I want Domino's, I want Domino's. Right. You're not in the mood for pizza. You're in the mood for Domino's. I want that circle.
00:53:22
Speaker
pizza with the marinara sauce and the garlicky crusts. And when it came square, I was like, this is not what we agreed to. That's funny. It's Domino's, I guess. But come on. You got dipping sauces for the crusts and stuff now, don't you? I think so. I think also, probably for me,
00:53:49
Speaker
It definitely was my elementary school pizza day pizza. Yes, me too. So I feel like that's why sometimes I just want a Domino's pizza. It reminds me of that. That's gotta be it. I feel like every once in a while I do kind of crave that type, but then I'm just gonna go to the Elia's Pizza. No, that's so not the same. Yeah, but that's what I want. You know? I mean, if that's what you want, that's what you want. Get me a DiGiorno.
00:54:18
Speaker
I get two Elios pizzas and I cut them to shape them into a little heart. Aw, that's so cute. I was just about to say the heart wants what it wants. Yeah. You can put things between the Elios pizza. Ooh, like what? Like chicken. You're dick. Oh, that escalated. Like a turduckin. Call it your pocket pizza. Just anything you would put on a sandwich.
00:54:47
Speaker
Peanut butter and jelly on a pizza? It's like a double down, except for with pizza. Pizza-sy. I can put liquid IV. I have so much more down there. Oh, could we? That sounds like a grand idea. Coupon co-diddos. I'm going to have to finish that out now.
00:55:13
Speaker
Um, so, uh, a lantern, um, looks like a dolphin we said, which kind of sucks maybe, but there may, there may. Perhaps.
00:55:25
Speaker
There may be a reason for it. If we consider the fact that Apollo, the Greek god of light, had a signature animal, which was the dolphin. So maybe there's some of that in Lantern's design. I doubt it. Guys, what's your signature animal?
00:55:45
Speaker
And we don't say spirit animal because that's cultural appropriation bullshit. This is your signature animal. Just like my favorite animal. No, your signature animal. Like when somebody sees an animal, they're like, oh, is that a koala bear? Must be Jeremy. Like, what? I mean, if you were the Bojack Horseman universe. Yeah. What animal would you be? Possum. Well, are you asking what animal I would want to be if I were an animal? No, no, no. What would you be?
00:56:15
Speaker
I don't know. A fucking domesticated house cat. I don't leave my house. I like to snuggle and I like to eat. Done. I am afraid of confrontation. I will play dead if I am stressed out. I love to eat garbage and I don't know. They're cool. I love them.
00:56:38
Speaker
I'm sorry. I don't mean to laugh, but that was just great. It's true. I've got a one tattooed on me. I love them. Yeah. It's definitely an animal with low grade anxiety for me. Oh my God. I think I'd be a chipmunk. Why? So you can make holes in our yard? So you could have some hit albums and sing at Christmas time. Or maybe a raccoon.
00:57:04
Speaker
Oh. A raccoon? Yeah, I think I would be a raccoon maybe. Yeah, he'd wash your food. Or like a fox or something. Maybe it's a raccoon. They're probably going to say a fox. Only the fox because of the ginger thing. I don't know. But they're both basically just animals that hide in the woods, and when they come and they're out there to see you, then something's wrong.
00:57:25
Speaker
Foxes are like, they're they'd like to laugh. They're very crafty. You know, they they're very smart animals. They're always the bad guys in video games.
00:57:35
Speaker
But they were the they could be good guys in movies. Star Fox. That one Fox in the Robin Hood Disney remake made everybody furries. Yeah, exactly. Lola Bunny. Yeah. Work. They walk so that we can run. I probably want some sort of off to animals. Yeah. Probably be some sort of like cow. Why cow? I don't know. Like a bull?
00:58:03
Speaker
Yeah, I guess I if I would be a boy cow, then I would probably be a bull. But cat cows can have best friends. Yeah. And they they're very affectionate and they they just kind of will hang out and just hang out and chew. Yeah. Man, that makes
Favorite Animals and Personal Significance
00:58:20
Speaker
me feel bad. I basically I basically just hang out and like eat. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's why I'm going to be a domesticated house cat.
00:58:32
Speaker
Yeah. Dude, imagine the life. Yo, my cats, our cats have it so fucking good. I wish I could have their life. It's true. Some sort of, I don't know, I would love to be some sort of like fisher bird so that I could experience a different realm. A different point of view. Oh, Peter, you're like a Stegosaurus. Yeah, I do. I do really like the phagomizer. What?
00:59:01
Speaker
I've always talked about the phagomizer. That's the little ball on the tail of the stegosaurus. Is it the stegosaurus? Or is it the... That's the ancleosaurus. So that word was coined by the Farside comics? Yeah. They basically came up with a word for the part on the dinosaur, and then scientists were like, yeah, let's call it that. Stegosaurus.
00:59:31
Speaker
Stegosaurus' tail. It's the phagomizer. I don't know. That works out. I don't know. Honestly, probably a monkey, because there are closest ancestors. Cop out. Yeah. Well, actually, I wish for more wishes.
00:59:54
Speaker
no what you do is you wish your last wish is that you wish the genie doesn't think it's ever met you before yeah what are the really cute monkeys the like capuchin yes i'd be a capuchin monkey so
01:00:16
Speaker
A key monkey? Do you remember the IKEA monkey? The one with the big jacket that was hanging out at IKEA? Did you ever see the video? Oh, yeah, I saw that. Yeah. Jacket monkey was like the same kind of energy as like Knife Kirby. It's just like a small thing standing at a doorway and you're like, what is that?
01:00:38
Speaker
Did you ever see the video of how they filmed? And you'll like this, Sarah, because it's about domesticated cats. They filmed an IKEA being filled with domesticated cats. What? And just like some of them got stuck in places. Most of them seemed frightened. Some of them were just happy.
01:01:03
Speaker
That's how I got an idea. Oh, my goodness. So the other day, Dave and I were sitting outside playing Zelda because it was so nice outside and Zelda came out and we're like, well, we got to do both. So we brought a TV and our switch outside and chainsaw was sitting in the window like wailing because he was so sad that we were outside not with him. So we're like, hey,
01:01:25
Speaker
don't we have a leash for chainsaw? Maybe we can, cause he's an indoor cat, like maybe we can take him out on a leash and he can just like chill with us in the patio. And Dave was on the leash and starts to bring him outside and this cat fucking like had the worst panic attack and like just would not go outside. So. Yeah, I bought the leash so he could drink beer with us on the porch when I first got him and he reacted the same and we figured,
01:01:51
Speaker
He's years older. You won't note same shit. Doesn't mean the outdoors. It's a little freak on a leash. I know. What a weirdo, right? Like what cat doesn't like beg to go outside? I feel like no cats want to be on a leash, though. Well, it's against it's against their their regalness.
01:02:14
Speaker
He has to be on a leash, though. He's too dumb. He's an orange cat, so. Yeah. I mean, no cat should be outdoor cats. They'll just find their way into trouble. Drunk use. Something like that. Organized pride. It's unprotected sex. Yes, very much so. Gambling. Fraud. Firearms. It's just arson. Day walking.
01:02:45
Speaker
uh the the piracy uh metallica is gonna hate that so yeah we have anything else about lantern yeah sorry we went off the rails there's not a lot to talk about lantern we gotta fill our court mandated one hour the shiny is a little bit more reddish makes it a little purpley it's purple yeah really all that purple it's all right it passes
01:03:15
Speaker
And then it shares this category with Ampharos because it's the light Pokemon.
Pokémon Games and Fun Facts
01:03:20
Speaker
And I don't know if we mentioned this, maybe we did that the bacteria inside its antenna absorb the bodily fluids to make the bioluminescent effect. Yes. Why didn't we talk about that?
01:03:34
Speaker
Yeah, the bodily fluids. We got to talk about bodily fluids. So that's just, I think, actually how anglerfish make their light light up with bioluminescence. It's the same thing. There's bacteria that it uses to create the light. Which one of your bodily fluids do your bacteria love the most?
01:04:02
Speaker
I'll go first probably stomach juices. Let's get real your entire intestine is filled with foreign bacteria You've got a whole biome in there. Yeah Yeah, it's either yes spit too is crazy yeah tons of shit in that mouth yeah, I
01:04:23
Speaker
And really, everybody has a different biome in their mouth too. And depending on how habitable your mouth is to bacteria, might pre-determine you to certain mouth diseases. quantities. Yeah. Got to love a good mouth disease. Yeah. Do we have any other facts or are we going to play our games? Let's do the games.
01:04:53
Speaker
I like to play games. Would you like to play a game? Play your game. Play my game or go with my game first? All right. So welcome to my game. My game is a trading card game where Peter, Dave, and Steven will be guessing how many cards that Chinchou and Lantern appear on are in the TCG, the trading card game. Peter is the notorious winner. So I want him.
01:05:21
Speaker
Well, I mean, you've done really well, like a lot. Steven will be the chronicler of that. Yes, at the end, we're going to find out how well, you know, everyone does. So we'll see who is the top guesser at the end of the season. But for now... You want me to go last? Well, I made you go last last time. So I'm not going to make you do anything, but... Go first. Go first. Maybe you should go first. I got this. Ah.
01:05:50
Speaker
Uh, chin chow. I'm gonna guess a lucky number 13. 13, okay. 9? 9, alright. I was gonna say 12, that's what I felt in my heart.
01:06:04
Speaker
Oh my god, Peter wins again, but I honestly don't want to let any of you win because you've lowballed Chinchou so hard. 24 cards. Can you believe that? Jesus. 24. I don't know why, but there you go. I've really lowballed Chinchou. Yeah. For sure. Like, oh, it's got to be single digits. I looked at that twice and I was like, no.
01:06:28
Speaker
All right. But then, like, I also remember, like, Dave and I, I know I talk about our, like, three-ton rubbermaid container of Pokémon cards, and we've got a lot of Chinchou's. So I guess that makes sense. I guess. The Jet Toos tend to be all over, I guess. Yeah, they're very inconsistent. I guess sometimes, too, it's like how easy it is to draw.
01:06:53
Speaker
Maybe. Also for balancing the game too, I imagine it going either electric or water could really work. Yes, yeah. Oh, so for strategic purposes, it's popular. It does have a very unique type, so. That makes sense. Okay, well, with that in mind, how many lanterns are we thinking? 20.
01:07:23
Speaker
22. 23. Who's at 23, Dave? Me. Okay, it's 24 again. All right, even cards. Okay. Yeah, I think it's pretty rare that this happens where the pre-evolution and evolution have the same amount, but they kept this pretty tried and true.
01:07:49
Speaker
Well, I want half of them. You know what they say? I want the other half. Together, we are whole. And you know what reminds me of a whole? The fucking game. Time to play the fucking game. This is the game. It's called Who You Gonna Fuck, where we talk about four different Pokemon and you're going to tell me which one. Lantern.
01:08:10
Speaker
cannot produce an egg with if you leave them in the daycare. All right, so this one I made hard because one of the facts on Bulbapedia basically said something about breeding that made this easier. I didn't read anything. I did, I cheated by accident. Yeah, it basically said that... Well, actually I won't say it. We'll just go through this. And then we'll share the fact afterwards. Yeah. Okay, so here are the four. Octillery.
01:08:40
Speaker
Sharpedo, Whale Lord, and Starmie. I'm gonna say Whale Lord. I'll say Starmie, and I'm gonna say Octillery.
01:09:00
Speaker
Peter again with Starmie. Starmie is what it eats and you don't shit where you eat. So sometimes in the Pokemon universe. It's true. It's true. I just tried. So Starmie is a water three while the other Pokemon are in water two. It was a crapshoot. The only reason I did that is because it basically said when I was doing it, I thought it would be very interesting to throw in some electric Pokemon.
01:09:22
Speaker
that it could potentially breed with, but I basically said that it is only a water two Pokemon, the only electric Pokemon in that group. I was like, oh, thanks. Yeah. When it comes to the water one, water two and water three groups, like you couldn't. What differentiates them?
01:09:47
Speaker
Like I think one group is like general fish. Yeah, I think that's it. Yeah, I think one is like, you know, other sea creatures and then another one could be like three is like the abstracts, more octopussy things, which is weird because October is in two. It just it's all over the place. There's just so many water types. But there are you know what else is all over the place?
01:10:14
Speaker
A good friend, Jackie Chan. Oh, my God. Oh, you want me to look one up? No, I got some. OK. Hit us with it. Well, first of all, he's 5'9". And he was knighted in 1989. Oh, wow. Sir Jackie? Sir Jackie Chan? I wonder who.
01:10:41
Speaker
Well, it's gonna say who noted it, but it must be one person. Yeah. It's gotta be Queen Lizzie. Gotta be Liz. What did we learn today? We learned that Antarctica is warm. Yeah. Got me a second time. We learned about the, what, the hogfish? The monkfish. The maw mouse.
01:11:10
Speaker
The poor man's lobster. I learned that bacteria could be shocking. Hmm. Yeah. And I learned that you can't fuck a star, you. The lantern. The lantern doesn't like to like to nibble, but it doesn't like to screw.
01:11:40
Speaker
I learned that there's 24 lanterns and chinchas in the TCG. That actually is probably the fact in the episode. That's crazy. I know. I had to look it up like twice. I'm like, nah, I'm on the wrong Pokemon. It's like, damn, OK. But it does make sense. The electric typing probably makes it more competitive to have in the game. Good on chincha. It's adorable. I dig it. And it's little feet.
01:12:08
Speaker
Yeah, I just, again, I just wish that I ever had an opportunity to use it. I feel like I never find them. Yeah, it's not really, you know, the typings good, but at the same time, like it's not, you'll, you'll save yourself against some water and have that there. But like, other than that, you know, maybe flying Pokemon, you have the advantage. It's just, you can send out a water Pokemon and decimate a Gyarados.
01:12:39
Speaker
Yeah. What an atrocious Pokemon. Gerritos? That's, that's its classification, the atrocious Pokemon.
01:12:51
Speaker
I would like to give a hearty thank you to Carl Jerm for our beautiful music. You know it, you love it, you know him, you love him. Carl is an honorary member of the Daycare Diddos. Yeah. We'd love to have him on someday. We're lonely. Thank you to you for listening. You can find us on social media that I will never remember.
01:13:22
Speaker
It's at Daycare Diddos on Instagram and TikTok. And just remember that the hornghis is a dongfish. The hornghis of a dongfish is attached by a scruncle to a kind of bill sack, the nut sack. Farting! Farting!
