I Never Knew That!....Or Did I?.....
 
This is a simple game. Each poster starts their post of with:

Did you know that ___________

They then put some fact related to Pokemon in a way....weather it be with the game, movie, or in general. The next poster says either

"I Never Knew That" if they never knew that, or,
"I Knew That!" If they did. Then the put their fact.

And so one.


Lets start easy:

Did you know that Brock does NOT love every girl he sees? (Dawn is a girl folks, and I dont see him hitting on her. Lolz)

Staarbit May 24th, 2009 2:27 PM

I knew that xD

Did you know that nobody really knows where Pokemon eggs come from?
Rofl, I'm assuming that's what they say because some parents may not want their kids to REALLY know where babies come from just yet xD

I knew that. Knew when I was 3..
Did you know that Pikachu doesn't exactly have a throne as big as Arceus' throne, he has to share it with mudkip, squirtle, charmander, and others?

Did you know that, in Fr/Lg, diglett could not learn sandstorm, but could learn sunny day? This is even odder than it sounds because the pokedex says that sun hurts little diggy. Emo diggy.

Lol I didn't know that.

Do your research. Electric type has normal effectiveness on Rock type. That's why the question was "Did you know...?" Apparently, you did not.

The Bringer! May 31st, 2009 7:16 PM

Heh, it seems a lot of people think that rock types are immune to electricty. Probably because of this next fact.

Did you know that in gen one, all rock types were part ground?

Pokemon12345678901 June 1st, 2009 6:59 AM

Did you know that shedinja can't mate, and has a different egg group than nincada and ninjask (mineral)?

The Girl from the Well June 1st, 2009 7:11 PM

The person below me didn't know that in yellow version, Sabrina's are all level 50.

The Bringer! June 7th, 2009 3:28 PM

Correct, I prefer red and blue to yellow since in yellow Koga just has a buch of freaking venonats -_-

I didn't know it was possible... XD

Did you know that on the route above Solaceon Town in Platinum, one of the trainers owns a Rapidash BELOW Lv.40?

Arle Kaa-kun June 14th, 2009 1:31 AM

I never knew that. Especially because I don't get to play Platinum...

Did you know that Torchic has a gender difference?

ShinjisLover June 14th, 2009 2:26 AM

Yeppers, that little black dot on its butt.

Did you know that Ash has only ever fallen for one girl that we've actually seen (this does not include shippings, this means outright blushing when he sees her)?

The Bringer! June 14th, 2009 12:39 PM

I did not, for I refuse to believe that the tv show exists.

Did you know that there is (maybe was, they could have fixed it in platinum) a glitch that causes fire fang to be uneffected by wonder guard. Normally this makes no difference, but if one were to hack a wonderguard pokemon that isn't weak to fire, fire fang would still work.

Nnoitra Jiruga June 14th, 2009 2:03 PM

Actually I knew that. I saw it on Youtube. : P

I knew that. Lolz, I just found that out when I encountered one in Platinum.

Did you know that in the Super Smash Bros. games, Pikachu uses Skull Bash, a move it can't normally learn in the Pokémon games, even by breeding?

The Bringer! June 15th, 2009 3:47 PM

Yesh I did.

Did you know that dunsparce only opens its mouth in crystal version?

Island June 19th, 2009 2:03 PM

Yes I did :P
Did you know that the meaning of pikachu in japanese is Electric Mouse?

And just something that came across my mind -

When an egg pokemon hatches, it is not being "populated" inside a pokeball. Does that mean after an egg hatches you need to re-catch? Because pokemons that hatch do not come with a pokeball immediately, since it is man-made.

Weird.

Wings Don't Cry June 19th, 2009 6:33 PM

I never knew that

Did you know female charizards could asexually reproduce in silver?

templekeeper June 19th, 2009 6:34 PM

Maybe...Ditto? GS cloning glitch?

Did you know that Cradily and Gyarados have something huge in common other than the fact that they're both pokemon?

CyanideEspeon June 19th, 2009 6:52 PM

Not really.

Did you know that Gligar and Gliscor can't learn any STAB moves by level-up?

templekeeper June 19th, 2009 6:54 PM

Nope...don't use most OUs.

Did you know that Omastar's shell had spikes going all around the back until second gen?

CyanideEspeon June 19th, 2009 6:57 PM

No. I don't think I did.

Did you know that Ash's Pikachu has used moves that, well, don't exist?

templekeeper June 19th, 2009 7:00 PM

No...such as?

DYKT Gyarados isn't a Dragon type?

CyanideEspeon June 19th, 2009 7:03 PM

Quote:

Well, Volt Tail is one of them. I can't remember the rest.

Yes, I knew that Gyrados isn't a Dragon type, since I own one and have checked its info.

TNPDK that Smeargle can learn more moves than Mew? Nothing against Mew, since I like them both.

Wings Don't Cry June 19th, 2009 7:03 PM

Yes I did and I believe it was Volt Tackle which can be learnt but it's very hard since it's a rare egg move for pichu, or so I was told

Did you know that if you breed a Red Gyarados you get a golden magikarp?

The Bringer! June 20th, 2009 2:24 PM

I can honestly say that I don't believe that, but, no, I didn't know that.

Did you know that dusclops can learn rain dance?

templekeeper June 20th, 2009 2:26 PM

I don't care enough about it to know that...

Did you know that one of Whiscash's worthless egg moves is Spark?

The Bringer! June 20th, 2009 2:43 PM

I did not. That would be a funny joke move to teach it, though xD


Did you know that misdreavous is the screech pokemon in the pokedex, yet can only learn screech as an egg move. You'd think that it would learn it more easily.

templekeeper June 20th, 2009 2:54 PM

...I never knew that! :/

Did you know that SPP stands for Serebii's Pokemon Page and other look-alikes?

Skystrike June 20th, 2009 7:54 PM

No!...
Did you know that Ash is stupid for not evo. Pikachu?

templekeeper June 21st, 2009 5:08 AM

Yep-

Did you know that male Combees gained an attack in Pt?

Neiko Star June 23rd, 2009 2:44 PM

Nope, never spared a thought for those little guys. XD

Did you know that 'Eevee' means 'evolve' in japanese?

chaos11011 June 23rd, 2009 3:19 PM

I remember hearing that somewhere.

Did you know that leaf blade's base power went up in D/P?

Ineffable~ June 24th, 2009 10:51 PM

I knew that! It also increased the Pokémon that could learn it. Used to be the signature move of the Treecko family. I love that move.

Did you know that Heatran is the only Pokémon that is resistant to moves of both the Dragon and Fire types? Thanks to Flash Fire. =)

LordBlumiere June 25th, 2009 2:06 AM

I had no idea about that!

Did you know that 'M and Missingno are actually two of the least likely glitches to cause much more than graphical errors?

Missingno.7-4468 June 25th, 2009 7:01 AM

Did you know that a shiny Cradily is the same colors as Lileep?

altaria221 June 25th, 2009 7:18 AM

lol, i never knew that

Did you know that IV's determined if a pokemon was shiny in Gold, Silver and Crystal

Ineffable~ June 25th, 2009 7:57 AM

Indeed, I knew that. Did you know that, in GSC, Pokémon couldn't breed if their IVs were too close? That increases the chance that they're brother and sister.

salmence33 June 25th, 2009 11:40 AM

no I didn't

I didn't know it until I saw him in the anime

Ineffable~ June 25th, 2009 6:36 PM

Yep, I certainly did. Did you know that Lucario and Poliwrath are, together, the only two Fighting-type Pokémon that can learn the move Psychic, but not receive STAB from it?

salmence33 June 26th, 2009 2:57 PM

No I didn't
did you know that in RBY there was only 1 family of dragons and 1 family of ghosts while in a coincidense are the only types super effective agaist there selves

Ineffable~ June 27th, 2009 8:34 AM

Yep, I knew that. That's why everyone loves Giratina.

Did you know that the Thunder Stone is widely considered the most useless true evolutionary stone ever because it only evolves two Pokémon?

ShyRayq June 30th, 2009 1:42 AM

DYK that each of the Hoenn starters signature moves have been expanded of the pokemon that can learn them in G4

*the moves are LeafBlade,BlazeKick and MuddyWater if u didn't know

HeartGoldnSoulSilver June 30th, 2009 2:12 AM

I did not know that?

Did you honestly know Red's Pokemon team (in the G/S/C games) consisted of Pokemon that the character "Red" of the Pokemon Special series (a manga) owned or once owned?

I did not know that.

Elena July 1st, 2009 9:45 PM

No, I didn't know.

I don't think so. A Pika is a small rodent that the Pikachu was based off of. And, if I am correct, chu means 'kiss' in Japanese. So, unless the word is meant to be broken up differently (like Pi kachu or pik achu, etc.) I don't see how that can translate into 'Electric Mouse.'
