Real pokemon guru

From R/S:
DUGTRIO are actually triplets that emerged from one body. As a result, each triplet thinks exactly like the other two triplets. They work cooperatively to burrow endlessly.

That's why I asked.
 
Ya yams u gotta answer a question here it is

How is it that Rapidash's fire doesn't burn the rider, even if it trusts it?

UNTIL at least two side gurus, including me(guru) answer.

I'll keep you all posted on any new side gurus.

The fire on Rapidash's back is not normal fire, which is why it doesnt need a fuel source, and can continue burning until the Rapidash dies. The fire is used as a tactic to intimidate predators, so Rapidash' can graze peacefully. If Rapidash trusts the rider, the fire does not burn them, because normally the fire cant burn anything, but if it is someone Rapidash ddoesnt trust, then Rapidash can make the fire burn them, but only temporarily. If Rapidash were keep the fire at a high temperature, the Rapidash would tire out, as it is like using a flamethrower continuously for a long period of time.
 
To input re: ponyta/rapidash:

What appears to be flames is actually a very thick mane, made of inividually controlled hairs that are coloured and move in a way that emulates fire, to scare possible predators. When someone attempts to mount the pokemon against its will, it is able to channel heat energy to them, in a similar way to how a lightbulb filament heats up when electrical energy is passed through it.
 
Yams, I'm likin your stuff. Honestly, I think description on the fire was a little weak(no offense) but your theory on its behavior is very well thought out. Welcome to the team! ILYM you had a very good explanation for the flames. (hairs) Never thought of it that way.



Hey everyone, if you like this thread, please rate it with 5 stars and give me some rep points. I'd really appreciate it.
 
Slowpoke feel pain but on a 5 second delay, Because there tails are the farthest part of their spine from the brain it is almost completely numb taking at least a day maybe more on some occasions to even register to the brain.

(PS- There are a couple of ways to answer every question, Through science, through games, through manga, and through anime. The way i choose to usually answer things is through the games so if someone else has a different answer than me that works as well it doesnt mea im wrong it just means there's another answer to that question if you look at it in a different way)
 
coolcatkim. I see why you asked that question. That's pretty confusing for a pokedex info peice. But in The Official Pokemon Handbook, Which was the first pokemon guidebook released(I'm talkin aboiut the first one(kanto) it states and I quote

"Diglett don't really change form, they join together in groups of three to become Dugtrio."(pg 55, last sentenc of Diglett's description)

Sumner, what exactly are you talking about for the PS thing? could you please give me the quote that lead you to say that.
 
Ugh, to the retard that gave me neg rep for my magickz quote, way to take a joke so seriously lol. Being a pokemon guru is srz business brah.

This was mentioned in the show, also. However, since the tips of their tails are specifically designed to catch fish, it may no have feeling receptors (which would save them a lot of [delayed] pain while fishing).

QUOTED FOR THE MOTHERFARKING TRUTH.

Also, I would give you a +rep to balance that out, but you've seen to it that doing so is impossible. Meh.
 
Sorry i had no intentions of that sounding rude at all or anything I meant that vaguely as in if anyone says something and one of the other gurus goes No -Insert Guru name here- The actually explaination = (Whatever else they had to say...)

lol I didnt meant i was personally offended by anything.. it also went to the other people so that they could feel as though they got the answer the were looking for... Like if i answered one way but the way you (Ink) or another guru answered was better they could wait it out and see.
 
Alright Sumner, It's cool, don't worry about it. U r right though. I made that mistake with Gymontide(which I apologized for) but we're cool now.
 
This might've been answered before, but...

There are quite a few pokemon that can only evolve through friendship, but plenty of wild versions are found. So, does that mean the friendship thing can apply to other Pokemon as well?

And if so, wouldn't it be possible to evolve a pokemon this way by fostering a bond between it and another pokemon, even if the pokemon doesn't like you?
 
Well, in my honest opinion, someone who sells themself out by calling themselves 'Pokémon gurus' either are not gurus or they're just looking for attention. Maybe both. =/

Just sayin', this made you sound pretty conceited. I'm sure anyone can figure out why a Pokémon can do what it does.

how would they fit in a pokeball
Pokémon fit in their Poké Ball by converting into energy when they are captured, returned, et cetera. Like teleportation in the Pokémon world. That's already been stated, I believe.

Sorry if this came off as rude, it was just something I thought you should know.​

Officially, its called "Happiness". Although it mostly relates to how well looked after the Pokemon is, its possible for a Pokemon to be wild and happy, isn't it?

...I understand you're not intending to sound rude, but you do realize it's basically just a non-existent biology class, right? It's just for fun. Explaining why pokemon can do such ridiculous things as changing with the weather, or having a tongue twice the length of it's body, it's just a way to pass the time. Who cares what the people participating are called, to my understanding it's kind of a joke anyways. Guru means a well-renowned person, an expert in their field. It's not hard to do that with pokemon...
And, You said that if you call yourself an expert, you can't be one (wtf?), or your just looking for attention. I definitely am not looking for attention, it's just something to do.

if you still have questions, ask Ink, he started it... jk, of course, Ink.

If you sell yourself out to be an expert, you most likely are not. That's what I'm trying to say; it's not difficult to see what I mean.​

Well, some of the more technically-minded PC members banded together to answer some burning Pokemon questions. Now only one of us made the thread title (and thus, the title of "Guru"), but our primary goal is to answer questions (and hopefully deliver some lulz in the process). I see nothing wrong with this. Besides, calling ourselves "the association of people with average Pokemon knowledge who wish to attempt to answer questions that you will not have because you can answer them already" is ridiculous.

Also, I wouldn't bring up "looking for attention", as you draw attention to yourself with your weird centered indigo text.

I'm sure anyone can figure out why a Pokémon can do what it does.​

If that were the case, we wouldn't have 5+ pages of questions and answers. And that's only this thread!

Not so fast! Solid matter is the most compact form of matter, and energy takes up the most space. If the atoms of a Charizard were to turn into energy, the volume necessary to hold that energy would be exponentially greater than the amount necessary for a solid Charizard's mass.
