Greetings people of rotumblr!!!
To the ones who do not know who I am, my name is Eugene Eucalyptus! Most people call me Gen~
I'm a pokemon professor and the main voice behind the radio show Fun Facts With Gen!
My team is at the trainer card shared right below.
This blog is basically an extension to the show! You can now accompany me here and on Stayutube in my channel FunFactsWithGen!
MAY THE QUESTIONS COME!

Does anyone else have that one friend where you’ll go out of town for a few hours, and immediately they’ve vanished without a trace and likely followed a bread crumb trail off into extreme danger where they’ll do extremely dangerous things and end up in the hospital and currently won’t answer their phone?
No, but I do have a friend that calls me non stop whenever I go on one of my trips because they think I'm going to end up dead or hospitalized even when I'm pretty much capable of surviving in the wild.
Well, after going into a minor radio silence, why not come back with a nice, fresh fun fact! How about one of my favorite facts of all time?
A fact about...
SLOWPOKES!
Everyone knows that slowpokes have the slowest nervous system of the entire planet, with the standard healthy slowpoke taking at least 5 seconds to feel pain! Many scientists are still confused as to how such a creature survived for so long!
With their diets consisting on fishing, they dip their tasty tails in the water and wait for something to bite. This occurs due to their tails having a different set of neurons that can sense anything but pain.
But that's common knowledge! You guys wanna know a true fun fact? THE SAME SET CAN BE FOUND ON THEIR HEADS!
This makes both ends of a slowpoke's body hyper sensitive to anything but pain! It's the main reason why they can easily evolve into both Slowbro and Slowking, as despite feeling the shellder biting down their heads, they are simply unbothered by it.
I've been told before that I shouldn't share much of my personal life on the internet and I can understand why, but I think I should clarify this...
I'm a married man
I was planning on making a video collaboration with professor Oak just like we did on his radio show some years ago, but by the name of Ho Oh that man is the busiest man I've ever seen in my entire life!

Why are people saying they are thirsting over the picture I posted?
It had nothing to do with water.
Assuming it's a picture of you, "thirsting" means they find you attractive.
Specifically, it comes with the connotations of.. how do I put this... lust.
People on the internet can be very unfiltered...
Oh...
I'm... flattered...
Why are people saying they are thirsting over the picture I posted?

Umm
Th
Thirsting?
I dunno.
I
I've not heard that phrase before.
Is it
Is it a new one?
That's the thing!
I DON'T KNOW!
Sayings are so weird.
Like
Like saying you're in a pickle when you've got a little problem!
What do pickles have to do with problems?
Or
Or saying that something's a piece of cake when you mean it's easy!
What do cakes have to do with easy things?
It doesn't make sense!
I studied biology, not linguistics.
What's that like?
Studying biology?
Oh, it's marvelous!
I travelled so far for my thesis. It was about the impact of human technology on pokemon evolution.
Of course, UG(University of Goldenrod) ain't the best one when it comes to assets and different programs, but that only made me go farther as I had to go out on the field to study pokemon up close!
Oh, and I might have gotten addicted to caffeine pills for some years, but I don't need those anymore! I haven't even drank coffee in... 3 months!
I drank coffee once.
Um.
Never again.
I
I like the idea of meeting new Pokémon, but
Um
How are you not scared of The Outside?
It
It's not safe!
So many Bad People. . .
Bad people can exist everywhere. Inside or outside, it doesn't matter.
I was scared of the sea for most of my life! But you wanna know what I did? I faced it! I went from Johto to Kalos on a ship and let me tell you, it was hard. But I survived!
I spent a lot of the first days inside my cabin, just waiting for the ride to be over until a friend of mine dragged me outside. I was still scared, of course, but after seeing the wingulls flying, the many fish pokemon jumping in and out of the water...
It was beautiful. Scary, but beautiful.
Don't run away from your fears. Face them! Fight them!
There are bad people out there, but there are also so many good people! Do you really prefer to live your life by yourself when you could make so many friends?
I iiii
I don't know. . .
I mean
I live with Colress and Grimsley and they're Good People.
And their friends are Good People too.
But
But otherwise I don't know who's a Bad Person and who's a Good Person.
I
I can't even open the garden gate without freezing up.
I don't think I could be brave like you or Colress or Grimsley.
They
They said baby steps are important, and they'll help me every step of the way, but
But isn't it better to be safe and at home, than Outside with all the danger?
Alright, let's make a scenario.
You're in The Outside, surrounded by strangers when one of them catches your eye. They look different from everyone else, like someone you'll want to talk to!
Are you going to let them go just because you don't know if their a mean person?
What if they are destined to become one of your best friends?
You can't tell if they're good or bad just by looking at them, just like you can't tell if you'll meet bad or good people once you step outside. It's a risk, yes, but if you don't risk it, the interesting person will go away, your new best friend might disappear completely from your life because you refused to take that risk.
If you never go out, you'll never meet anyone bad, but you'll also never meet other good people.
And as you said, you're not alone. Go out with your two friends, meet new people! Make more friends! Soon enough you won't even have space for the bad ones anymore.
Should I make an episode about the many misconceptions present on the pokedex? A lot of things there are so outdated...

Hello!
My friend Florian had a theory that the Pokédex entries about Charmander dying when its flame goes out are a bit of a misconception.
He thought that if a healthy Charmander's flame is completely doused, it should actually be able to relight its tail within seconds. If it can't relight its tail, it's either because it can't produce enough of the gases needed to relight it, or that these gases have built up and can't escape. Both scenarios are deadly for a Charmander. In that sense, an unlit tail is more of an indicator or symptom than a cause.
But Florian said that he was 8 or so when the thought of it. He thinks it's probably not true, and we're not eager to find out through actual Charmanders...
What do you think?
- Juliana from @flor-and-jules
I think I answered this on an episode before, but I can reiterate it here!
Your friend Florian got very close from the truth, but it's a bit more complicated than that.
A charmander's flame is the main indicative of it's health, yes, but if their flame is doused by, let's say, the rain, they won't immediately die like some people may think.
The flame generated on their tail is a combination of their own ability to control fire and their diet. Charmanders are omnivores, but with a preference for dry foods and bugs in general. Part of what they consumed goes under a chemical reaction that basically turns what's left of it's food when it absorbs all the nutrients into a flammable gas. The excess of this gas is expelled from it's tail.
That's why "chonky charmanders" tend to have bigger flames. They eat more so they will produce more fuel.
But that gas is limited. If you starve your charmander or if something occurs to it's body that affects it's digestive system, the fire on it's tail will begin to consume necessary nutrients from the pokemon. The flame tends to get smaller once this starts to happen, so if you notice your charmander's flame is smaller than usual, go to a pokecenter.
But does that mean that you can douse the fire of a healthy charmander with no repercussion? No!
As stated, the gas they produce is limited. If they lose their flame for some natural reason, they can light it up again, but this will spend more fuel than usual. It doesn't kill the charmander outright, but it drains their fuel and, if they drain too much of it, they'll basically starve to death.

Shorter fun fact!
The number of people killed by clamperls is higher than the number of people who were killed by huntails, but smaller than the number killed by gorebysses. Most of these deaths are caused by them clamping down on someone who was just passing by and trapping them there until they drowned.

Actually, how about a fun fact about gyarados!
It is common knowledge that gyarados is one of the most violent pokemon found in nature. They wreck boats, scare away swimmers and enter fights with literally any pokemon that dares to approach. But why?
Scientists used to theorize that this was due to the constant stress they suffer in the magikarp phase, since that pokemon is such a common prey for many predators, but studies show that they aren't these vengeful beasts we used to think they were.
They are territorial and violent because they are extremely protective of the area they are currently in. Female gyarados tend to stay near their nests, protecting the area they call "home", while the male ones are the ones that you usually see out and about wrecking everything.
This phenomenon can be spotted easily whenever a "resident of their area" approaches. A gyarados won't attack a pokemon that they know they can trust. That's why they won't attack their trainers as well.
The reason behind this territorialism is still unkown to most, as they don't just accur during mating season, but all year long. Are they just overly protective? Does it have something to do with their diet consisting of local flora? It's a mystery...
me and the fish
oooh, this reminds me of the red gyarados incident!
and the many...
many trainers that appeared right after crying because they thought their shiny gyaradoses were like that due to team rocket interference over the ecosystem or due to them thinking they were accidentally being abusive towards their differently colored magikarps...
