Maelstrom 312 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 It seems that there are more plastic flamingos in the US than real ones. If it's true, as it may well be, then it is very interesting. That's not hard to believe. They're not native to North America. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ironbound 110 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 And TIL that Metagross derives the 'Gross' in its name not necessarily from its grotesque appearance, but from the number 'one gross', or 144, which is 12×12. Metagross's weight is 1212.5 lbs. That's 1212 1/2. All the dozens. Mega Metagross, at 2078.7 lbs, is also the second heaviest of all Pokémon, after Primal Groudon. That's... Almost 50% heavier than Dialga and 2.5 times as heavy as Mega Aggron. Metagross, you're too damn massive! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spineblade 20 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 That feel when you type up a long post, then shorten it down to 2 or 3 lines because "nah, nobody would know or care enough about this subject to read more than that."

Ironbound 110 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 TIL that Bellossom actually has higher bulk than Vileplume. Not that it makes any difference, since Vileplume has a better defensive typing overall and is the less useless of the two, although both are pretty bottom-of-the-barrel-ish.
