Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/06/11

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 227th lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s lesson, we will be discussing Skarmory: the Armor Bird Pokémon. Skarmory is known for its beautiful steel wings, which become tattered and bashed in from battling. However, once a year the damaged wings will grow back completely, restoring those sharp edges it once had before. Skarmory’s wings are so sharp that they have been used to create blades, swords, and knives. So I guess think twice before riding a

2025/05/28

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 226th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson is all about Mantine: the Kite Pokémon. This water and flying type loves the open seas, where it swims freely with its good buddy Remoraid. Remoraid attaches itself to the underside of Mantine’s fin, where it scavenges its leftovers and fights together if attacked. Mantine is sometimes misidentified as a bird Pokémon as it frequently breaches the water, flying 300 feet into the air! Imagine a little Remoraid

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 225th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s class is all about Delibird: the Delivery Pokémon. Do you know what Delibird delivers? Good vibes, baby… and food! Delibird collects food in its tail to later share with its chicks and even other Pokémon & humans. It typically offers bug Pokémon to hungry humans, which sounds gross, but they do offer a good source of protein. If attacked, Delibird will throw food at its opponent. So is every battle with Delibird a

2025/04/30

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 224th lesson on Pokémon biology. And for this class, we will be discussing Octillery: the Jet Pokémon and evolved form of Remoraid. This water type loves hiding out in rocky holes or pots. If threatened, Octillery will emerge and squirt ink from its mouth to escape. This ink will obscure its enemy’s vision and dull their sense of smell, making it harder to track the fleeing Octillery. Talk about a slippery little fiend! And there’s even more to learn about

This pinpoint precision has granted Remoraid the title of “Sniper of the Seas”. Talk about a flex. And there’s more to learn about Remoraid, so make sure you take

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 222nd lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s lesson, we will be discussing Corsola: the Coral Pokémon. Corsola are typically found in warmer, shallow waters in southern regions. But above all, Corsola needs clean water to live. If the water is too filthy, the branches on its back will become discolored and eventually crumble away. But fear not! If you nurse your Corsola back to health in the correct environment, it will regrow said branches over a single

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/04/09

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 221st lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s lesson is all about Piloswine: the Swine Pokémon and evolved form of Swinub. This ice and ground type is covered in a thick fur coat, allowing it to survive in frigid temperatures. In fact, Piloswine’s fur is so long that it covers its eyes and hooved feet. Do you ever think Piloswine trips over its own fur and face plants? If you see that happen, please don’t embarrass the Piloswine. Because it can’t see well,

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/03/26

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 219th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is all about Magcargo: the Lava Pokémon and evolved form of Slugma. This fire and rock type is the definition of hot. Magcargo’s internal temperature can reach over 18,000 °F. At that temperature, water will literally evaporate on contact with Magcargo’s body. So for trainers interested in raising a Magcargo, please be very cautious about when and where you bring it out. Magcargo is practically a walking

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/03/19

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 218th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson is all about Slugma: the Lava Pokémon. The first thing you’ll notice about Slugma is that it never stops moving. If it isn’t constantly mobile, Slugma will cool and become brittle enough to break apart. And we don’t want that! Slugma’s entire circulatory system is composed of magma, which carries nutrients and oxygen to its organs. So wait, are its organs made of magma too? Will the Pokédex entries tell us

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 217th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is all about Ursaring: the Hibernator Pokémon and evolved form of Teddiursa. Ursaring uses its very sharp claws to mark trees in its territory that bear good fruit. So if you happen upon strange claw marks on a tree in the woods, you need to watch your back! And if you’re carrying honey, you can forget about leaving the woods unscathed - that’s an Ursaring’s favorite treat! No matter where you run, no matter

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 216th lesson on Pokémon biology. Prof. Jacob returns to teach the class all about Teddiursa: the Little Bear Pokémon. Teddiursa is so adorable to look at, there’s an 85% chance you might die… that hasn’t been proven but it’s probably true. Teddiursa is almost always licking its paws because they’re usually coated in honey that it either finds or makes itself by blending Beedrill pollen with fruits. And guess what? Every Teddirusa has a unique flavor on its

Hello there and Merry Christmas! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 211th lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s holiday lesson, we will be discussing Qwilfish: the Balloon Pokémon. I bet you’re wondering what this little fella has to do with balloons. Well, inquisitive student, that’s because Qwilfish will drink over 2.6 gallons of water to inflate its body just before attacking. Speaking of inflation, Qwilfish will try to puff up and increase its body size to match its opponent… no matter how large. It

2024/12/18

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 210th lesson on Pokémon biology. In this lesson, we will be discussing Granbull: the Fairy Pokémon and evolved form of Snubbull. Remember those tiny baby teeth Snubbull had? Well, they’ve been replaced with heavy fangs on Granbull’s lower jaw! So fierce, right!? Well, not actually. Granbull is known for being very timid and sensitive. So much so that it makes Snubbull look like a scary monster. That may be an exaggeration. The point is: Granbull is actually

This giant, fearsome Pokémon can burrow underground up to sixth-tenths of a mile - that’s nearly a mile! Steelix is able to effortlessly chew boulders as it digs, crunching up anything in its path. And when it comes to a sturdy hide, Steelix is unmatched. Due to constant exposure to heat and pressure underground, Steelix has developed a
