GMMore 1988: Crazy Pokemon Characters (Game)

(rooster crowing) (lion roars) – Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” Do we know a fake Pokemon when we hear it? Do you? – But first, congratulations to Nicole Tennant, you win a $30 Mythical.com gift card, because you’ve been repping that merch in the wild with #Merchicality. – All right, rep merch get more merch, Nicole. Thank you. – All right, not only are we gonna be identifying different Pokemon… I mean, I wish we didn’t have to do this, but you know we’re kind of sticking with the theme. Just let it be known that I’m still upset that we’re doing this, because I hate Pokemon. But here’s what we’re gonna do, this is a Good Mythical S’More, as voted on by the Mythical Society members, and they voted 37% of you voted that Rhett and Link must keep one hand flat on the table for the entire “More.” If they move that hand, they get slapped with a flyswatter. – And of course, we have the flyswatters. – Yeah. So Kaitlyn and Mikayla are on each side of us. – Go ahead and wave the flyswatters in. Look at that, look at that. I’m just gonna put my hand right there. – [Stevie] I think we need a demonstration though, ’cause now I know what a flyswatter is. – I didn’t move it. – There we go. Okay, now I understand. I didn’t understand until they did it. – You can be more aggressive than that. (Rhett exclaims) Yeah, that was perfect. – You can’t be more- – Hold on, give him a nice little wallop. – Okay. – No, you have to accept it. – This is bringing back memories of like my first babysitter. – Oh, she would do the hand slap? – She had a flyswatter. – For the hand or for the booty? – For the booty. – Flyswatter on the booty is not much unless you’ve got your pants off. – [Stevie] Like, she would bring it to your house? – No, my mom would bring me to her house. – [Stevie] Oh, okay. – And drop me off so that I would get flyswatted there. And I mean, the old trope of go out- – And get yourself a switch? – Get a switch, that happened a few times. – [Stevie] At the babysitter’s house? – I’d have to walk outside, and I’ve learned to not throw my babysitters under the bus by name because I had to devote an entire “Ear Biscuits” to an apology. – Yeah, right. – For doing that. (Stevie laughs) This is not that babysitter, this is a different one. – [Stevie] Yeah, sure. – And I love her dearly. And it was kind of cute. Go outside and get a switch. – Kind of cute, yeah. – You know, you’d walk out there. She knew it was more about the trepidation, walk out there, go to the bush, pull of the switch, bring it back in, and by that point it was just like Kaitlyn’s first hit. – Oh, really? – She wouldn’t really let me have. – I never really got out that easy. – [Stevie] Was that an upgrade from the flyswatter? Like the flyswatter was step one, and then step two was this is not a fly swat, this is a switch situation? – I only remember it a couple of times, I just think the convenience of the flyswatter took over. – [Stevie] Well, that’s your first Pokemon name, the Fly… No, I’m just kidding. – The Flyswatter. – [Stevie] But it is just as odd. Mr. Mime. Mr. Mime is able to solidify air molecules by vibrating his fingertips, this allows him to create invisible objects through pantomiming them. Real or fake? – This is so arbitrary. – I mean, you said there was almost like 900 of these. – 898. I’m actually surprised… I mean, I guess it’s just an age thing, you would have been so into this as a child. – Definitely. – Because it’s Gotta Catch ‘Em All, it’s a collecting thing. – Yeah, and there’s an assignment. – Does Lando… Is he into this? Does he collect a bunch of them? – Well, I mean, as you know, all of our older kids were really into it. When they were in like the homeschool co-op. It kind of adds up, doesn’t it? – Well, they had a friend- – The Pokemon were- – They have a close friend who’s basically a professional Pokemon player now and goes to tournaments all over the world and plays the card game and has like won these crazy awards. – I don’t know if the awards are crazy. – No, but it’s like, where’s Ian now? Oh, he’s in Mexico City and a Pokemon tournament. I mean, this dude is like living the Pokemon high life. – Yeah. But our kids were banned from it. – I looked at Mikayla and she’s like. – They were banned from school. – They were banned from school? – What’s the exchange over here? – I just thought about my hand and just made eye contact with Mikayla, and she’s not losing focus. – She is ready. This is not real. – I’m saying it is real. – Mr. Mime? – Mr. Mime. I don’t know what the standards are. – [Stevie] Mr. Mime is real. – [Link] Vibrating his fingertips. – [Rhett] For the first like six years of Locke’s life- – [Link] He looks like a stop motion suit guy. – Jessie was very apprehensive about Pokemon, because they could evolve. Just to give you an idea of where we come from. (Mythical Crew laughs) It was like, I don’t know about that, those things evolve, you might end up believing in evolution. – And you know what, it happened. – We did. We believe in evolution now, and it’s not because it’s scientifically verified, it’s because of Pokemon. – It’s fun. Yeah, it’s fun. I mean, once you experience it in the cards. – Hey, don’t read “Harry Potter” and don’t play with Pokemon unless you want the devil to take over your kids’ lives. – [Stevie] Cerberuff. Cerberuff is a three-headed hound Pokemon that grows stronger as the blue flame at the end of his tail grows. – Oh, I think I’ve seen this guy. – Sherberuff? – I could not have said his name. – [Stevie] Sure, it could be Sherberuff. – Is he made from sherbet? – [Stevie] I’m reading it as Cerberuff. – Cerberuff. That feels real, but I’m gonna say it’s not. – [Stevie] Cerberuff is fake. – Oh, it’s fake. All right. – They don’t even have like a stock image of something that Twinkle Fingies put together? – Twinkle Fingers was already working too hard on your crap earlier. – Yeah, he was. Yeah, he was. – [Stevie] Stinkoblakst. – What was that last word? – Blast. – [Stevie] Blakst, there’s a K-S-T at the end. – I thought you said blakst. – Bla kast? – [Stevie] You know what I mean. – Blakst. – [Stevie] I’m just gonna call it Stinkoblast. Has the power to emit a toxic green cloud from his backside. A lot of the stuff happens in the backside. – The fart. – [Stevie] Trapping his enemies in the floating cloud until it dissipates. – So it’s a fart cloud that traps enemies. – I think you’re getting this… This guy’s inspired by Waluigi. – He can fart? – I recently learned that he’s a farter. Like, that’s what Lando was telling me, that Waluigi farts. Is this common knowledge? – So Waluigi is to Luigi as Wario is to Mario? – Or is it Wario? Which one farts? Do any of you guys know? We don’t know any of this stuff. – I think if Wario could fart, then Elon Musk would have farted in that “SNL” sketch where he played Wario. – Then maybe it’s Waluigi then. – Too big of an opportunity missed. – [Man] It’s called the Wario Waft. – Oh, it is a thing. – Yeah, I knew Lando does not lie just to talk about farts. There’s so much truth associated with farts. – This is real. – [Stevie] Fake. – Oh shoot, I should’ve known that ’cause of the Wario. That’s where they got it from. – But 898, at some point, you have to start stealing from your other properties, ’cause Nintendo still owns it, right? – Good point, good point. – So you can play… I assume you can play with like Pokemon characters in like Super Smash Bros., right? – You can, yeah. – [Stevie] Okay, for this one I’m gonna need you to take both your hands and cup your ears so you can hear me. – Stevie’s trying to make this S’More worth it. – Not gonna happen. – What? We’re actually doing pretty good. – [Stevie] Dang it. – How are you keeping that hand still? – It’s the thing I’m thinking about most. (Rhett laughs) – It’s the thing I’m thinking about most. – And I don’t want there to be much of a pay off to this, because I think the S’Mores, they’re gonna fade into the distance. – They’re fading into the distance? – Yeah. I’m feeling it. Because you know- – Well, let’s make this last one count. – I just don’t like to be- – Ow! – [Stevie] Lickatung. – Hypatung? – Lickatung. – Every time somebody gets slapped, let’s add… I don’t wanna make it too difficult for post, I mean, you guys do a lot, and there’s a video every single day. – You want our hands to fart? – Just a sound. Let’s intensify, let’s get like a stock flyswatting sound and make it sound even more intense. (flyswatter swats) A whip sound. – You can just use this one, (imitates flyswatter). – I had to look at you, Mikayla. – [Mikayla] I was trying to see if I could make the sound. – [Stevie] Lickatung. – Lickatung? – [Stevie] Lickatung’s tongue is twice as long as his body. I don’t know why I read that like that. – Wow. – [Stevie] His tongue has the ability to pick up prey and his saliva can leave a rash if not properly cleaned off. – The rash part… – How does a rash manifest itself in a card game? – Right. – I don’t really understand… Like, I don’t understand Dungeons and Dragons, even though Science Mike has explained it to us like 14 times. I don’t really- – Sometimes with voices. – Yeah, he’s like an incredible dungeon master. We need to experience that. But I don’t understand like, I give you rash. When Ian is in Mexico City at one of these big ass Pokemon tournaments, is he like throwing rashes. How does the rash manifest itself? Does the other kid go. What happens? I’m just genuinely curious, does anybody know, has anybody played a Pokemon versus somebody else? – The only thing I know is that when I did drop my kids off at a local Pokemon tournament, that it smelled really weird in there. (Mythical Crew laughs) Yeah. – Yeah. – So rashes are fair game. No, this is fake. – Okay, I’m gonna go with fake as well. – [Stevie] It’s real. – [Rhett And Link] Oh, it’s real. Look at that thing. – [Rhett] All he’s got inside of him is a tongue. And I guess some if goes into his tail. The reason that it smelled that way in that place you went, which I think it was that toy shop, right? You took them to that toy shop and they’d play in the back of the toy shop? – It was like a card shop, yeah. – Is Pokemon is very popular in that part of your life when you are beginning to emit smells that you don’t have under control yet. You know what I’m saying? – Yeah. – Could you imagine what it would be like to go into like a Royal Ambassador meeting like back when we were in the RAs, which is the Baptist cub scouts. – The holy boy scouts, holier than thou scouts. – A bunch of 12 to 13 year old boys, who haven’t really reckoned with their own stenches yet. That is a very specific, very specific smell, and they gather and some of the parts is greater than the whole. – Yeah, it is, Rhett. – Or the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. – [Man] How is that bath bomb doing? – It’s gone. This is what came out of it. Here is it. – [Man] Oh, I remember when you said that. – We cleaned it out. We cleaned it out. – Now what is that? Which one is that? Chase, you knew a little bit about this. – [Stevie] He’s mumbling in a low mumble. – And Devonte, you’re on the line as well, right? And you know about Pokemon. – [Devonte] Yeah, I do, but it’s too small for me to see. – So it is a pink- – [Chase] Slowbro. – Slowbro. – He’s got a Christmas tree on his tail. A prickly pear on his tail. – [Chase] It’s a water psychic type Pokemon. – [Devonte] Yeah, it evolves from a Slowpoke. It’s just kind of like a dense, dumb, kind of character, then it gets a little bit smarter when it evolves. – Okay. – Dense and dumb. – Is then when you started believing in evolution, Devonte? (Mythical Crew laughs) – [Devonte] Not quite. But I couldn’t watch “Harry Potter” either. My grandma was not for that witchcraft. – Yeah, right. – I mean, seriously. – Grandmas everywhere, very suspicious of Harry Potter. – I mean, we’re just too old, we missed Harry Potter, we missed Pokemon ourselves ’cause of our age. And we also missed the back masking devil worship of the ’70s with Led Zeppelin, so we really didn’t have a- – But we did go to some presentations in the ’80s when Satanic Panic- – But they were still about the ’70s. – Well yeah, of course, the people who were concerned about it were always about a decade behind. So they got really concerned about it after it had already happened. In the ’80s, it’s like let’s get really concerned about it now. – Well, we didn’t have any kids properties. I mean, what we had was we had parental advisory sticker on like gangster rap. That’s what we had. – Right. – That was a bit more founded. – [Stevie] But now we do a lot of things with magic, you know, like we sell stuff that has magic. – Oh yeah, like this mug. – I mean, both of them are magically activated now. – Yeah, ’cause there’s a hot liquid in it. – But if it wasn’t, this would not have a flame behind it and you would not see the Charizard. What do we call our thing? (Mythical Crew laughs) – [Link And Stevie] The Cockatrice. – The Cockatrice is a Pokemon. Part of the Pokemon franchise – [Stevie] Oh, that’s all the plug’s gonna be? If you wanna get one of these mugs, go to Mythical.com, they’re color changing when you pour hot liquid in. – It’s so fun to watch. You’ll make tea just to see what happens. – [Stevie] Gothorita. Gothorita is a humanoid Pokemon who dresses in black, she can control both people and Pokemon alike with the power of hypnosis. – I just don’t think that Pokemon would develop something that was this tied to our world. – I mean, even the term humanoid Pokemon, I don’t think is a thing. Like, I’ve never seen a Pokemon that I would describe as humanoid. – [Chase] You just saw Mr. Mime. – Chase just said something. – [Chase] You just saw Mr. Mime. – But that wasn’t real. (Mythical Crew laughs) I guess I would call that humanoid, so I’m saying this is real, thanks Chase. – I’m saying it’s fake, ’cause goth is like a subculture. – [Stevie] Gothorita is real. – What? – Wow. Thank you, Chase. Okay, humanoid. – [Rhett] Okay, all right, maybe I gotta get into this. – [Link] She’s got four boobies. – She’s got an upper bra and a lower bra and then she’s got four head bras. Maybe they’re just bows. – She’s got three heads. – [Rhett] Maybe they’re just bows. – [Link] Are those buns or other heads? – Now what can she do, just be sad? – [Stevie] She has the power of hypnosis. And she can control people and Pokemon. – Okay, I can see that happening. – [Stevie] Gothorita sounds like a bad disease or something though. – Well, it actually sounds like something Taco Bell would come out with. – [Stevie] Yeah. – Like an all black, every part of it is black. – Comes with a side of penicillin though. (Link slurps) – [Stevie] You know what I was thinking, you were talking about the age where you start emitting smells, like you know that age where you’re like deodorant is a new thing for me. First of all, I feel like for some young guys, they have to be told that. – Oh, most. – [Stevie] Yeah, and then because you have to add it to your daily routine, there’s some days where you’re like, whoops, that didn’t happen for me. But here’s the thing, girls have it arguably even worse because it’s around the same age where you have to start wearing a bra and if you forget the bra, that is a horrible feeling, and I will tell you it has happened multiple… Not lately. – Stevie, actually I was gonna say something, it’s been happening more and more lately. (Stevie chuckles) – Hold on, you would show up at school without a bra? – [Stevie] Yes. – And then would you just own it? – [Stevie] You would just feel terrible the entire day and feel like everyone was staring at you, even though you probably had like those mosquito bud situations going on, so no one was really looking. But yeah, you would just be like, man. And also it was really embarrassing for me at least to have to start wearing a bra. Like, you didn’t want anyone to know that you had to start wearing a bra. – Yeah, that you were having to account for something. – Yeah, I mean with guys, what happened to us what just like a right of passage. I mean, you get more hair and then what do you do about it, nothing, you just kind of slather some deodorant on it. Y’all girls, y’all had to figure out a lot of stuff logistically, you know? – [Stevie] Thank you, that’s all I wanted you to say. – Wow. – [Stevie] Comfey. – Say it again? – Comfey. – [Stevie] Comfey is a ring of multi-colored flowers. – Comfey? – [Stevie] Yeah, Comfey’s flowers- – Like comfy. – Comfey. – [Stevie] But C-O-M-F-E-Y. emit a soothing fragrance for its allies to enjoy, but Comfey can also shoot real flowers… Sorry, it just says shoot flowers at its enemies. – Wow, so speaking of smells. – I don’t know how you would make this up, unless you were someone who made up Pokemon. – Yeah, I’m going with real on this one. – [Stevie] Yeah, it’s real. – All right, all right. Look at that. That’s strange. It’s like a lei. It’s a lei Pokemon. Comfelei. – Oh yeah, lei. Comfey-lei. Comfeylei. – I don’t know if that’s what they were going for. – [Stevie] Okay, this is your last one. – All right, it all comes down to this. This is the one you’ve been waiting for. – You haven’t really gotten slapped again. – Nope. – Kidbaby. – I’m not fond of it. – [Stevie] Kidbaby is the most temperamental Pokemon. – Kidbaby. – [Stevie] He can be a sweet infant one minute, but has the ability to turn into a raging toddler when mad. Kidbaby’s tears can poison other young Pokemon. – So it’s kind of a lose, lose situation here. What was more annoying to you, the little infant stage of your kids, or the toddler stage of your kids? – I think the younger the more annoying. – Yeah, because the toddler stage, they’re so cute. I mean, I’ve never… Sorry, I’ve never found a very young infant cute. I’m always like, there’s something a little bit off here. – ‘Cause you identify too much with the weakness. All right, I’m saying this is fake. – I’m saying it’s real. – [Stevie] It’s fake. – Yes! I did it. – Celebrate with your other hand. – Yes, I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it. – Put that sound effect in there. – [Link] Add some scientific magic to your Mythical mug collection with the GMM heat activated mug, available now at Mythical.com.
