Every Mushroom Pokémon

It's about time we take a look at every single mushroom Pokémon. There are 11 in total, unless I completely missed one. But I don't make mistakes, you know? At the end, I also rank all 11 so stay tuned for that.

I would like to see a regional evolution of Paras where the bug over powers the mushroom and becomes a Bug Fighting type

[SpliffingBrit]

We need mega parasect so we can get an item called parasite

[johnzale]

Paraspectre is absolutely correct that parasitic plants are not mushrooms, nor do mycorrhizae infesting a plant’s roots make that plant a fungus any more than my ketamine addiction makes me a horse

If I was a gym leader I would have a mushroom theme, I think they're just so cool, and could offer some fun gym puzzles.

5:55 Omg! I have the same plush!! I like to keep him in dark places like under a shelf.

So apparently there are patterns with mushroom Pokémon

-each line is a two stage
-each line has a completely unique secondary typing
-shroom lines are made every two gens

Toedscool's design answers the age-old question of "What if foreskin could walk?"

[shadex]

Breloom will always be a favorite, gen 3 Pokemon were interesting since they had the turnaround in gen 4 with the physical/special split. Gotta love dropping those STAB Seed Bombs.

[PrincessGoth]

I love shiinotic so much <3 A perfect example of being creepy and cute at the same time.

[CaptainObliviousV]

In all fairness, Convergent Mons are just an expansion of the variant concept. In addition to Variant Breeds, Paldea surprised me with how it’s given us more future potential for variants than most had ever considered. I remember when Regional Evolutions were introduced almost 4 years ago and everyone thought we had reached the pinnacle of the variant concept.

Also, Parasect is my favorite Kanto mon, and I’m also hoping it gets a variant one day. My personal hope is that they switch the fungus from a mushroom to that fungus that infects spiders and turns them into zombie puffballs.

whenever i go to the grocery store i try to buy a dollar or so of loose mushrooms. its such a fun food and can make a lot of things so much savory and fun. if you ever wanted to try to get into mushrooms, see if your store sells white button mushrooms loose, so you can try a few and see if you like em

my favorite are chanterelle mushrooms. garlic herb butter or in a risotto are just amazing things

[fives]

I was pretty meh on Parasect until I found your channel. Now I will forever associate it with you and your content so it's risen several notches in my eyes and I've come to appreciate it a lot more.

I had a pretty similar reaction to you when I first saw Toedscoel running about. It and Toedscruel quickly became two of my favorite Paldean Pokemon and it was a main stay on my team through my first run of Scarlet.

[MishKoz]

There's another youtuber named Zen Mode who recently made a video about Paras and Parasect that I think would be _extremely_ up you alley.

[levistokes]

I'm actually using a parasect on my fire red playthrough currently. People keep asking me why? And I tell them that I just wanted to use it. I'm kind of a bug type fanatic. I love most bug types and use at least 1 in almost every team. Paracect actually doesn't do terrible in newer Kanto games. Grass in general does pretty good in Kanto. As a gen 3 game it doest get acess to a ton of bug moves. But since leech life had been buffed and it can now learn X Scissor parasect is much better.

[jmcbango]

18:04 the whole idea of toedscool (and wugtrio) is the real-life concept of convergent evolution. Dolphins and sharks might have very similar body types, but aren't directly related in any way. Same idea here

[magomuddy]

the reason toedscool and toedscruel look like tentacool and tentacruel is because of a natural phenomena called convergent evolution where two species that are completely unrelated evolve to look similar. that's how toedscool and toedscruel can look like tentacool tenacruel without actually being related.

[NoisyBones]

The biological principle at play in ScVi is called ‘convergent evolution’. It’s the term for two animals that have similar features despite not being closely related at all. For example, a platypus has a bill-like mouth and lays eggs, so do ducks, but one is a mammal and the other is a bird!

[bobjeezorham]

Never knew Shiinotic and Parasect have a rivalry type thing going on, suppose its only natural you wouldn't be a fan lol. Personally, Shiinotic is actually probably my favorite mushroom Pokémon, I like how weird its proportions are and the almost creepy permanent smile it has. Feels sort of alien-like.

[jaschabull]

One pokémon that was left out as an honourable mention is nacli, which apparently is based on a mushroom rock. Not technically a fungus, I guess, but it probably still could've been brought up.

[tonyplaysguitar]

Toadscruel was a pillar of my team! As a fast special attack her carried his weight 😅 as soon as a I saw a toadscool running in the wild I knew I needed it.

[AlmostCoolGuys]

I liked that paradox Amoongus! It looks so menacing. But can't argue Parasect in gen 1 using Spore to catch wild pokemon. Playing Pokemon TPP and Parasect has been a suprise favorite on my team.
