I'm surprised you didn't talk about nosepass, in the Highlands map, there's a group of nosepass that are all facing north unless you interact with them, exactly as past Pokedex entries and lore say they do.

2:53 the reason why it doesn't mention Phanpy/Donphan is because they are ground types which don't get affected by Raichu's electric powers at all and that is actually pretty neat

[foolbait]

I hope more regions get games like this. Imagine being able to live through the darkest day in galar

[JaceOKami]

Something I only learned about today: a normally grounded Pokemon that has wings actually flies when sent out of their ball when above water, instead of sitting on that little floating boat. Examples for this is the Rowlet line. This is the first time since the series went 3D, that pokemon have 2 idle stances!

There is a fun detail I noticed: in battle, pokemons will always look at each other in the eye. So when you have pokemons with large heigh difference (lets say you throw a Dialga against a Turtwig like a maniac) they will both move their heads, eyes and even walk away so they can look each other in the eye, even during attack animation!

A fun fact I learned from my friend who speaks Japanese: the naming of the Hisuian Pokedex makes a bit more sense in Japanese because it means something closer to "field manual"

[Zertolurian]

The Casual Tee is actually dependent on your avatar's gender! The female instead wears the "Loose Top - Luxury Holiday" from SwSh. :)

[texeoghea]

the farmer having a comment if you give him an alpha pokemon actually applies to almost every quest involving lending one of the townsfolk a pokemon, like when the clothier asks to see a wormadam! in fact, for the Glameow quest, if you show the man an Alpha Glameow, he will actually tell you to go back and catch a normal-sized one, because he believes you caught the wrong pokemon- he specifies that the one he saw was "bidoof sized". i found that one out the hard way XD

[Spoffy]

One little thing I noticed while playing. The Pokémon who spawn in the hot spring in the Iceland’s are friendly and won’t run away or attack!

[AbsolBlogsPokemon]

Love all the details put into this game!!! If I had to guess what happened with Misery's situation, it probably had something to do with day/night encounters getting swapped out. In the Bolderoll slopes, it looks like Graveler spawns during the day, but Zubat can also occupy that spot at night

[blankadams]

When Iscan asks you to catch a Dusknoir, he specifically points out that you can find them in the map area that looks like a clawed hand.

The pokemon photos in the dex being literal pictures can be explained when you first arrive to fight the alpha Kriketune in deer's landing. Laventon comes running up and brandishes his camera, hoping to get pics of an alpha.

Here's a fun one I noticed while searching for the stupid Unown- behind the clothier there is a clothes line with fabric on it. The more you've unlocked in the clothing shop, the more fabrics will be on the lines.

[tcdoesstuff]

Fun fact (haven’t seen anyone talk about this), but for the three farm quests (ground type, rock smash user, water type), you can use the Sinnoh starters. Just feels cool and I’m catching three Alpha starters for the farms.

[sallytims]

I noticed a random animation detail today. When your character wears geta sandals, if you walk slowly you'll see your character's foot lift first and the sandal will follow shortly after

[nickinq]

another fact is that when you throw one of your pokemon in water areas, they will either fly, levitate or stand on a wooden platform which is WAYY better than pokemon just magically standing on the surface of the water.

[thestrcougar]

That last fact, I saw a guy calling it the "shiny swap method".
He found a shiny drifblim and saved, waited til it was morning in his game and saved again, reset the game and it was a starly. So once there's a pokemon in that grid the shiny will be replaced.

[_DewGaming]

Just to note, the new basculin isn't a hisuian form, it's classified as its White-Stripe form, just like the Blue-Stripe

[AustinJohnPlays]

So I've been alpha hunting for the last week or so and I came across a bunch of your videos and they're playing in the background start to finish. At the end of this I heard you start to talk about the Seed advances and how the species is independent of the advance. Funny enough, i posted my video on Swapping Shiny Pokemon the same day as this video, the 5th. sadly it's only applicable for a small pool of pokemon, but after your 6th shiny starly, it's helpful lol.

[AshXXMayftw]

Another neat little detail is if you do enough requests around the village, you'll start seeing pokemon and their trainers up and about. This can be seen very early on with a Bidoof request where you must track down 3 Bidoofs around town and afterwards those same Bidoofs will appear on top of their new owner's house. Or how in one request you have to catch a Geodude to help a woman prepare a pickled dish by having the pokemon sit on top of the pot. If you do this, you'll see the Geodude sitting on the same pot from then on.

I love how much unnecessary detail they put into this game! I've actually noticed a few things to add on to some of the findings in this video.
- Your character also reacts to other things aside from successful captures as well. Their expression changes if they're being targeted, if they have a status condition such as frostbite, or if there's a pokemon nearby (such as when Aipom runs up to you).
- The gardener isn't the only NPC who gives special dialogue if you bring him an alpha. I brought an alpha starly to the one lady who gives you the starly quest, and she commented on its size too.
