lol this is so true! and….i dont usually do this but…FIRST!
Excuse me, but is it commen for… “people” like you to call out that you are first at posting… okay then… JK
FIRST!
Yeah. It’s “survival of the fittest” and evolution doesn’t make the cut.
Plus, you can sell pokemon cards on ebay for big bucks!:) (which I did!)
TAKE THAT DARWIN! YOU GOT BEATEN BY THE CUDDLIEST CREATURES ON THE PLANET! WHAT NOW!?
LOL evolution bashing graph is bashin’. haha.
You can sell books and stuff about evolution at ebay as well… and it isn’t bashing evolution, but it’s bashing the kids…
In before the idiotic creationists.
Yes, what you said.
And apparently the graph’s creator hasn’t heard of punctuated equilibrium. Darwin’s model hasn’t been the paradigm for several decades.
Punctuated equilibrium never WAS the paradigm. It was an idiot theory meant to patch up the holes in the geologic column.
Kids still play the pokeymons?
I’m nineteen…… my iTunes is made up mostly of pokemon theme songs, I have two GB emulators, I can name all 150, I’m rewatching Indigo to Jhoto, and I’ve played every game. Its ain’t just the kids my friend :p
rep hard bro, I’m rocking a 462 dex right now…
I suck at collecting them >.> but I’m working hard on Fire red to get all of them.
Then you are an idiot.
Said the idiot.
Oh toss off!
i envy you!
I’m with you. I’m 25 and still gotta catch em all. I have every version of the games except heart gold, soul silver, and fire red. I plan on getting them and black and white. I’m trying to get into the tcg and memorize all 400+ for the next anime con I go to. These aren’t kid’s games these are just plain games. Some people like em some don’t
I’ll be 21 next month and I’m replaying Heartgold and I’m rewatching the Johto series.
also, my fiance is writing a Pokemon Dungeon and Dragons campaign for me ^___^
what your fiancé does for you is probably one of the geekiest things ever…
you’re so lucky!
Thanks!
he is pretty damn awesome. I’m really excited for the campaign to start!!
Wow you all need to grow up! What in the hell is pokemon dungeons and dragons!? You guys dry f**K with pokemon outfits on i bet. Im sure you havent even came yet from regular romatic sex besides adding a lil pokemon mask on.
Me and my boyfie play pokemon together… ah, bonding time between lovers lol XD
i wouldnt admit things like that
CCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMBO BREAKAAAAH!!!
oh, and THIS IS FLIPPING ACCURATE! OMG. oh, and WHOO’S WAITING FOR BLACK AND WHITE? answer to reply, plz
dude dont be dissing pokemon it is awesome…especially on long drives that take like 20 hours
except for pikachu.
Yes. In the case of Pikachu, when it evolves into Raichu, it’s attack is lowered significantly.
screw raichu
What? No it isn’t. All of its stats are boosted with evolution; the base stats in question, attack and special attack, go from 55 to 90 and 50 to 90 respectively.
However, what Raichu doesn’t get is access to the Light Ball, which double’s Pikachu’s stats if held. So from a pure evolution standpoint, it doesn’t get any lower stats, but it does lose some /potential/ attack stats.
Wheeeee~
On an unrelated note, I’m 18, and still like/play Pokemon.
This Graph is horrible. I am 11 and I hate Pokemon.
So… either you are 11, hate the pokeemanz, and go on graphjam (which makes you cool); or, you are just attempting to troll us (which makes you cool). Have fun kid.
And with a good reason. When I was your age, Pokemon just came out on TV. It was MUCH better back then. Not the retarded crap it is now.
im 12, and most of the the stuff they show now makes me cringe. I had nightmares when my beileber friend force feed me justin beiber crap e.e
Thats a lie, there are no cool people on the Interwebs.
you’re too young for pokemon. i don’t mean that in a condescending way, i just mean that it was cool when we were your age and it will never be cool again.
This is true not only of evolution, but of biodiversity as well. The following letter was published in the journal Science:
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/sci;295/5564/2367b?maxtoshow=&hits=10&RESULTFORMAT=&fulltext=Why+Conservationists+Should+Heed+Pokemon&searchid=1&FIRSTINDEX=0&resourcetype=HWCIT
More like ‘what do creationists know about evolution’.
This is why we have to teach evolution in schools, not ID crap.
correction, creationists don’t even know THAT much about evolution. they can’t even tell apart evolution from: abiogenesis (scientific theory on how life began; note, different from evolution), cosmology (history of the universe), or atomic theory! hell, some creationists don’t even know the difference between evolution and gravity for crying out loud! saying they know as much about evolution as Pokemon teaches greatly compliments them while insulting the intellect of the creators/fans of Pokemon (note, i hate Pokemon and hated it for much of my life, so the fact i’m defending it from this insult surprises even me)
Wow…..0.0
“hell, some creationists don’t even know the difference between evolution and gravity.”
And some people think Europe is a country. It doesn’t matter what side of the fence you are on there are less than intelligent people on both of them
Yeah, I have a friend, who’s an adult and is otherwise pretty smart, who asked me, if people evolved from apes, why apes are still around. >_< I tried to explain about common ancestors and that evolution really doesn't work like a ladder, but I don't know how much of it went in.
Is your friend strong in science? It’s a simple concept even if you don’t believe it.
I have used the word ‘crap’ in each of my posts.
It applies to both ID and Pokemon.
Wow.
Nah, real evolution needs more cowbell.
Magikarp is better without evolution!
I have defeated elite four with five 100 level magikarps and one unhatched egg.
True story.
YOU ARE MY IDOL!
You must have had a lot of healing items. Or perhaps even hacked Magikarp/Rare Candy Magikarp/Daycare Magikarp. I’m only suggesting that since I could barely stand to train one to level 20 from level 5, let alone 5 Magikarps to level 100.
Personally, I think Beating the Elite Four and Champion while making macaroni and cheese is a big acomplishment.
Discussion aside, this is true. I’m a student teacher, and my cooperating teacher was having trouble explaining the concept of evolution to his ninth-grade class. They were like “an animal doesn’t turn into another animal!”
So I jumped in and said “guys, it’s not like pokemon…” and explained it to them that way. My CT was like “thanks, I would never have thought to explain it that way because idk anything about pokemon”.
Actually evolution is a bit like Pokemon. The organism starts out small and “weak” and as it levels up/evolves, it grows stronger, has higher stats, and grows resistances (and sometimes weaknesses).
In nature, over millions of years, animals will “evolve” to grow stronger (as well as pick up weaknesses). Through natural selection, the organism fit to survive will pass on its genes.
To relate that to Pokemon, as the Pokemon wins more battles, it grows stronger and has a higher tendency to evolve over a Pokemon that always loses.
Not really. An organism will evolve to be a better fit to its niche in the environment, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it gets stronger; many modern creatures are smaller and/or weaker than their ancestors, because it takes more resources to support a large animal, and sometimes animals can survive better if they’re small and weak and don’t require many resources than they can if they’re big and strong and need more. Birds, for instance, are much smaller and weaker than their theropod ancestors, but they’re still quite successful, while you don’t exactly see Tyrannosaurs and Velociraptors roaming around anymore.
In other cases, they’re pretty much the same size as their ancestors, but have evolved other things which enhance their survival. We humans, for instance, are a bit bigger than the earlier hominids, but not by that much. However, our intelligence gives us the ability to survive even in areas with conditions our bodies aren’t adapted to.
Thing is, you’re confusing “evolution” with “metamorphosis”
You..mean..evolution has nothing to do with Pokemon?;A; Nah, j/k…although I do love Pokemon, I still think this is funny!
Lighten up, people, and quit pulling out facts and figures! Everyone learns about evolution *or rather, gradual changes over time through natural selection, as Darwin originally meant* eventually! Whether they like it or not… >:D (btw, I’m 15 and I know this, so >:p)
good graph lets keep it that way
Nintendo taught us well.
Gotta catch ‘em all!
and sadly pokemon don’t really undergo evolution as they undergo metamorphosis.
excellent point! being the geek i am, i’m surprised that i never thought of it that way b4, thanks
in the show and game it’s called evolution so i think that’s what the person who made this chart meant.
There is no theory of evolution, only a list of animals Chuck Norris lets live.
Chuck Norris jokes are never funny. Also, I’m pretty sure they started out as Vin Diesel… Don’t know for sure.
GOD I love pool……
That is all.
{[_]
What is this i don’t even?!
Dude, just face the facts.Chuck Norris is human like the rest of us;and I agree,the jokes are pretty gay.
Why do atheists always use things like this as an excuse to act better than everybody else. This wasn’t made so you can talk about creationism and how ignorant you think they are. Its a joke about Pokemon. Evolution has its flaws too keep in mind.
Nerds and Religion are like oil and water. You can’t be a TRUE nerd and a creationist.
I’m a nerd and a Christian.
I disagree. Why not?
uhm, yeah, you r a retard. most Christians on Earth accept evolution, and most people who accept evolution r Christian. so saying that evolution is atheistic in nature just shows how incomprehensably idiotic u truely are. also, most of the “flaws” creationist point out r usually made up by idiots like Ben Stein and are not based on anything in reality: (“uhm, evolution is flawed, cuz, uhm, it doesn’t explain gravity, and uhm, how come it doesn’t do that”). the truth is that evolution is a unifying theory of biology (medicine, genetics, animal behaviour, biodiversity, etc) and as it is so extensive and explains things rather perfectly, it would need something incredibly powerful to discredit evolution. and if it is ever done, the scientific community would admit its mistake, adopt the new theory that discreditted evolution, and whoever made the theory would become as famous as Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, and evolution would become just as much a joke as geocentricism. of course, no creationist will ever be able to pull that off, as the majority lack the mental capacity to even kno the difference between biology and astronomy
nerd
i readily admit that
I love the way that you suggest that creationists lack mental capacity. However, at the same time you show your obvious lack of knowledge about what (informed) creationists actually believe. “uhm, it doesn’t explain gravity”. What a ridiculous thought. Of course it is probably easier to MAKE UP really stupid things and then just say that a group of people believe it than actually using your clearly superior mental capacity to figure out what they actually say that is incorrect.
Plus, your appalling lack of capitalization really doesn’t demonstrate your amazing mental capacity all that well, just so you are aware.
I swear,I`ve talked about evolution in pokemon more then in the actually theory!I can`t even remember the guy`s name…..
His name was Prof. Oak. =P
This is incorrect because kid are playing there Modern warfare 2 now. if Pokemon was good enough for me when i was 7 it’s good enough for me now!

Creationists have been realizing that they are in the minority. This makes them real twitchy. Many of them have worked to take over small towns where they can make their last-ditch, diehard stand. If you live in one of these places, be ready to either lie and suck-up, or be treated like a second class person.
I would not underestimate the trouble these liars and morons can cause. Have you heard the one about using the second amendment option?– or how about let’s pray for Obama to croak.
The fundamentalists, sore losers, and racists present a real threat to our US Constitution, our elected leaders, and our quality of education.
Now I know what they mean by, “local control of the schools.” They want to teach fundamentalist religion and turn out more batches of brainwashed, undereducated jokers.
Trolls who try to stuff their religion down everyone else’s throats have now been replaced by trolls who try to stuff atheism down everyone’s throats.
True dat!
Atheism is a religion, so really nothing has changed.
So true.
There’s a difference between refusing to have one’s rights curtailed by superstition or to have education in reality twisted by irrational beliefs and “shoving atheism down everyone’s throats.”
This is so very true, but not only that–very sad. Children are the sponges of information. They absorb things so easily, because they are curious, responsive, and active individuals. Why is this true? There’s a perfectly good explanation, which arises out of the fact that these are the stages of life where we learn the most and our brains develop the most. It’s a very crucial, and sensitive time period in all humans. We can learn a lot from them, as well as teach them more than we could ever hope for ourselves. It’s time we harnessed this power. Not for ourselves, but for the future of our children, and our world.

if i threw all the parts to a ball point pen in a dryer and came back the next day would it be fully assembled and ready to write? who built your house idiots it didnt just pop out of space and your dog or sister didnt crawl out of some sea a hundred million years ago as a tadpole
even darwin didnt believe his own theory as he got older.. says alot about the theory when the theorist doubts himself
Er, I must be the odd one out. I don’t know what you are talking about with ‘Evolution’ for Pokemon, and I’m 13. >.>
i learned about darwinian evolution before pokemon. that was because i played on a crappy Pokemon Yellow, and it wouldn’t save…
