"while you expected trouble
You didn't think it'd be double" is the best sentence I've heard in a teded riddle

[aivantgoyal]

Whoever wrote this definitely had a LOT of fun with the names

[beethebee]

the 3rd riddle doesnt matter because the other 2 guys will probably be disqualified for tying up the referee

[jam]

2:01 that was actually a level four churrozard so the burgersaur should've lost there

[thewatcherinthecloud]

1:00 "the higher level...will win..no matter what type it is."

Those who memorize the type chart: Surprised Pizza-chu face

[huhneat]

"You prepared for trouble, but you didn't anticipate they would make it double"


I hate this video and that's why I love it

All of the Pokémon references in this video:
0:01 Professor Oak telling you "Your very own tale of grand adventure is about to unfold."
0:10 Just the name "Diskymon"
0:29 Burgersaur is very similar to Bulbasaur, one of the three first starter Pokémon.
0:31 Churrozard is very similar to Charizard, the final evolution of Charmander, one of the three first starter Pokémon.
0:46 Wartortilla is very similar to Wartortle, the middle-stage evolution of Squirtle, one of the three first starter Pokémon.
1:01 "No matter what type it is" referencing the type system in Pokémon.
2:09 A reference to Jessie and James' famous line "Prepare for trouble! And make it double!" from the anime.
2:39 Being a Diskymon trainer is just like how you could be a Pokémon trainer.
4:47 A reference to "I wanna be the very best, that no one ever was!" from the theme song in the anime (I haven't seen that much of it so I don't know if it's still used in modern episodes).

If I made some mistake or forgot something, let me know!

[bluefootwalking]

'YOU JUST WON BY LUCK!"
"Y...yes....that's literally how everyone wins this game..."

[quitequeerquesadilla]

i can't be the only one who's impressed with how the narrator manages to say every single reference without missing a beat

[kose]

Funfact: Every Ted-Ed riddle has atleast one comment that says “confirm you have green eyes”

[jellytomlinson]

I love the fire crystal riddle reference at the beginning. And I also love the constant pokemon references.

[RandomGaming-YT]

ted-ed: did you get the answer?

me: ulu but actually ozo...

[hmm]

Me on christmas: I can’t wait to play my Diskydisk on my Sintendo Ditch

[KCJB]

And while you prepared for trouble. You didn't anticipate it being double *chef's kiss*

[tophatman]

2:10 i love how he mad a team rocket reference

[kirbyquartz]

I wanna spin the very best, like no one ever spun. To get a high level is my real test, no training to be number one. I will travel, across the land, spinning far and wide. Teach others to understand, the probability that lies! Diskymon! Gotta spin ‘em all! It’s the disk and me, Diskymon! I know which disk will win me! Diskymon! Math, is my best friend, where we spin and spin again! Diskymon! A spin so true, Diskymon! Our chances will pull us through! You teach me and I teach you, ran-dom-chance! Gotta spin ‘em all, Gotta spin ‘em all, Diskymon!

Nintendo sure changed a lot of things for the 10th generation of Pokémon.
