Here is a list with some of my favorite Pokemon secrets and facts that I've been compiling for some time. Enjoy!

Poliwag’s signature swirl pattern is meant to look like the visible intestines of tadpoles.



When Paras evolves into Parasect, the parasitic mushroom on its back actually takes over the host, which explains the Pokémon’s blank, white eyes





Pikachu’s name is a combination of the Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkle, pikapika, and the sound of squeaking, which is expressed as chūchū.




Magneton is made up of three Magnemites and should logically weigh three times as much, but Magnemite weighs in at 13.2 pounds and Magneton weighs 132 pounds.




"Mr. Mime" the pokemon can in fact be a girl, however the name of the pokemon doesn't actually change. She would still be a Mr. Mime.








Spinda isn't an often-used Pokemon, but it has a pretty interesting trait. No two Spinda's are the same, and to ensure that, the game developers created over 4 billion unique spot patterns for Spinda to have.



Many Pokemon names include numbers, The original legendary trio of Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres include the Spanish words for one, two, and three (uno, dos, tres). Deino and his evolutions include the German words for one, two, and three (ein, zwei, drei).




As of the sixth generation of Pokémon, there are four Pokémon with palindromes as names. This means that their names are spelled the same forwards and backwards. The first Pokémon to use this pattern of naming was Eevee from the first generation. Ho-oh and Girafarig were introduced in the second generation. Finally, Alomomola was added in the fifth generation.




Aside from Pokémon with palindrome names, there are also several Pokémon whose names are a word written backwards. The most popular and widely known of this type are Ekans and Arbok from the first generation. Ekans and Arbok are both designed to look like snakes. Therefore, Ekans is simply "snake" backwards. While Arbok's name backwards, "kobra," is not a word, but it is phonetically the same as "cobra," a type of snake. Finally, the fourth generation Pokémon Rotom's name is the word "motor" backwards. This is a reference to the ability of Rotom to assume the shape of certain motor-based appliances, namely a washing machine, refrigerator, lawn mower and microwave.

Viola, a Bug-type Gym Leader that wears white tank top and has a DSLR camera, looks at Alexa, a journalist from Lumiose Press (based on the real world Agence France-Presse from Paris), plays a viola.
"Why you play a viola? You're a journalist, not a violist!" Viola angry and takes that viola from Alexa.
"Because this is a good day to vacation. You know? This is June 21." Alexa says.
"Well, but I want to break this viola because you know, you're a journalist, not a violist!"
Viola breaks Alexa's viola and the bow. "Hey, that price is €499! I lose €499!" Alexa says.
"Why you not use other instruments?"...

This is considered a theory. This is also non-canon. Ok the ending would be this. This is years into the future. Ash is either married to Misty or Dawn (way more likely Misty) and haves a daughter. Ash is not in the video (link below).
Well the Dawn thing would make no sense so I will explain.
In the beginning of the video, on your right is future Misty. On your left is future Dawn (possibly). And the middle is Ash's daughter. Well if you are still confused about the Dawn thing you can see that on your right in the video it's a woman in blue hair. It's obviously Dawn (likely).

Ash Ketchum (Japanese:サトシ Satoshi) is the main protagonist of the Pokémon anime series who has always dreamed of becoming a Pokémon Master and as soon as he hit the age of ten, he rushed to Professor Oak's Laboratory to get his first Pokémon. He's the first character to be introduced in the series. Originally wanting to choose Squirtle, Ash ended up getting the Pokémon Pikachu, and left on his journey. At first, Pikachu did not listen to Ash and kept running away, so Ash had to tie him up. Then after getting chased by a flock of Spearow, Ash attempted to save Pikachu from them; Pikachu,...

    After my hysterics ended, Vicky told me that she and her brother were actually visiting. “Visiting…your home?” I asked.
    She nodded. We were sitting in her living room, the television on. “Surely you know of the Pokémon journey?”
    I nodded. See? Watching anime does have good points. Especially when you are sent to one of the anime worlds and they don’t think that they’re fictional at all. “Sure I do,” I answered. “When you turn ten, you head off to get a starter Pokémon and all that.”

After the musical (I lost), Trip, Tobias, Rosalie and I sit near a beautiful river watching tons of Water Pokemon migrate north. "Man. I can't believe I lost, but I'll be fine." "Yeah! Just believe you can win soon!" Rosalie says to cheer me up. I smile in return. "Hello? Is anyone here?" "Audino!" Huh? "Who's there?" We shout back to the random voice. "Hellllllllloooooooooooo???" she yells back. A girl with pink hair and pink nurse's dress comes in our direction. "Nurse Joy?" Rosalie questions. "Pardon me. But my name isn't Joy. I'm Jill!" Jill? "Jill?!?!" We all ask in shock. "I thought all...
