Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/12/10

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 247th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s class is all about Pupitar: the Hard Shell Pokémon and evolved form of Larvitar. With a shell as hard as sheet rock, Pupitar is a resilient, little rock bean that has incredible destructive power. And although it looks kind of helpless, Pupitar refuses to stay still. It even has gas inside its body, which it uses to propel itself like a jet! Wish I could harness the gas inside my body and do that. There’s more to

This grumpy little fella is born deep beneath the Earth and can’t emerge until it has eaten all the soil around it. Speaking of eating dirt, Larvitar supposedly has the ability to eat a mountain. Yes, you read that right… an entire mountain. Small Pokémon with a big appetite, am I right? And there’s more to learn about Larvitar, so make sure you’re taking

The third legendary beast of Johto, Suicune is said to be the reincarnation of the north winds and possesses the ability to purify the dirtiest and murkiest of waters. Straight sewage becomes crystal clear drinking water when Suicune’s around. Totally safe to drink, I promise. Suicune is always searching for pure reservoirs as it dashes elegantly

2025/11/19

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 244th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is on Entei: the Volcano Pokémon. This legendary beast gets its name from the volcanoes that erupt when it barks. Rumors claim that every time a new volcano appears, an Entei is born. Wait, how many volcanoes are there in the world? And how many Entei are there running around!? It’s been said that Entei embodies the passion of magma. So depending on how many Entei exist as a result of said volcanoes, that’s a

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 243rd lesson on Pokémon biology. And for this lesson, we will be discussing Raikou: the Thunder Pokémon. Raikou makes up one of the three legendary beasts of Johto. This powerful Pokémon carries rain clouds on its back, which allow it to shoot thunderbolts at will. I wish the dark cloud that follows me could do that. Raikou’s barks are so intense that they send shock waves through the air and ground, similar to lightning bolts. Embodying the speed of

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 242nd lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is all about Blissey: the Happiness Pokémon and evolved form of Chansey. This joyful Pokémon carries a single egg inside its pink belly pouch, which can cause a person to act kindly and calm after consumption. It’s even been said that Blissey’s egg will bring you good fortune if you eat it! That’s why they’re so expensive at your local PokéMart - being happy fetches a high price, am I right? Gotta love

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/10/29

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 241st lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s class, we will be discussing Miltank: the Milk Cow Pokémon. This udderly cool Pokémon produces a sweet, nutritious milk that has healing properties. But as delicious as it is, drinking excessive Miltank milk will cause you to gain weight and suffer from stomach pains. So don’t drink it all at once! That much sugar can cause long-term damage, especially to children. Keep an eye on little Corbin. And there’s more to

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 240th lesson on Pokémon biology. And in today’s class, we return to the Day Care to learn about Magby: the Live Coal Pokémon and pre-evolved form of Magmar. Although small, Magby can breathe flames up to 1100 °F and dribble embers from its mouth. Speaking of which, the state of Magby’s health can actually be determined by the type of fire it breathes. So please pay close attention, trainers. This is vital information for monitoring your Magby’s

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 239th lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s class, we will be discussing Elekid: the Electric Pokémon and pre-evolved form of Electabuzz. This little Pokémon can become quite rowdy at the sound of thunderstorms. Elekid generates electricity by rotating its arm, but its preferred method is to consume it straight from the source: wall outlets. Because nothing beats that fresh, outlet zap juice, you feel me? And there’s more to learn about Elekid, so take

2025/10/08

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 238th lesson on Pokémon biology. And in this lesson, we will be discussing Smoochum: the Kiss Pokémon and pre-evolved form of Jynx. Smoochum is categorized as such because its lips are very sensitive, and it uses them to examine objects. As unsanitary as that might sound, Smoochum actually hates being dirty and will regularly check its reflection to make sure its face is clean. And to keep its lips nice and moist, Smoochum regularly applies tree sap. Looks

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 237th lesson on Pokémon biology. For today’s class, we will be discussing Hitmontop: the Handstand Pokémon and one of the evolved forms of Tyrogue. Hitmontop is excellent at fighting using dance-like kicks, which implement both offensive and defensive tactics. But be careful: Hitmontop can spin on its head so rapidly that it can bore holes into the ground. And that can cause problems for you and other classrooms below you… trust me. And if you find yourself

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/09/24

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 236th lesson on Pokémon biology. In today’s lesson, we will be discussing Tyrogue: the Scuffle Pokémon. This scrappy, little fighting type has no fear and will challenge anyone. Despite how small Tyrogue is, it has been known to punch any target without warning. I love that - it’s always keeping you on your toes! Tyrogue also never takes a rest day. It has been known to train daily and will even get stressed if it misses a day. So trainers: keep your Tyrogue

This derpy normal type is known for its long tail with a tip resembling a paintbrush. Smeargle oozes (or gushes, whichever you prefer) a special fluid from its tail tip, which it uses to mark its territory. This paint-like fluid is predetermined for each Smeargle, and over 5,000 different markings have been documented. What is it you think the Smeargle

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 234th lesson on Pokémon biology. And for today’s lesson, we will be discussing Stantler: the Big Horn Pokémon. This normal type is known for its gorgeous but strange antlers, which many consider to be valuable works of art. The orbs on these antlers release a pleasing aroma, which can cause a bewildering effect on anyone smelling it. Additionally, Stantler’s antlers can manipulate the surrounding air flow to create a distortion in reality. These antlers have

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 233rd lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is about Porygon2: the Virtual Pokémon and evolved form of Porygon (as if the name didn’t give that away). Porygon’s blocky, pixelated body has transformed into a smooth, sleek build. Porygon2 is engineered with state of the art technology, including AI, to aid in space exploration. However, this upgraded Pokémon has resulted in a few setbacks, such as the inability to fly, unprogrammed reactions, and more

Donphan is a hardy Pokémon with a tough, tire-like hide that loves to roll around and slam into stuff. Donphan has enough rolling power to blow apart an entire house! Wow. Talk about bringing down the house, am I right? Hold for laughter. Anyway, there’s much to learn about this tough Pokémon, and what better place

Welcome to the World of Pokémon ·

2025/08/06

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 231st lesson on Pokémon biology. For this lesson, we will be discussing Phanpy: the Long Nose Pokémon. Although it is arguably the cutest Johto Pokémon, Phanpy’s little trunk is actually quite strong. It’s able to send a person flying through the air with a simple bump of the snout. So maybe chain yourself to the ground during playtime with your Phanpy. It also loves to make nests by the river, often digging vertical pits by the shoreline. And when the pit

Like its predecessor, this menacing Pokémon lives in packs. The Houndoom with horns raked sharply towards its back serves as the leader of the pack.

Houndour hunts in packs with top tier teamwork, utilizing various barks and howls only understandable by others of its kind. At dawn (settle down, Corbin), Houndour will ominously howl to announce its territory for all to hear. And you better respect that territory… or it’s the pack’s fury you’ll have to face. Dun dun DUNNN! There’s more to learn about Houndour, so
