So more evidence that would point to this is the name, which supposedly means "chaotic", though I'm thinking this could also mean "archaic", as a reference to the archea (even though Euglena is a protist). Another interesting Euglena-like aspect is the red 'orbs' floating in its hand are really similar to the "eye" spots in Euglena.

No more?

Hey- Just wondering if there are going to be any more "On the Origin of Species" articles. Miss them.

Absol8 01:11, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

I'd also like to know if there are going to be more, or at least why there won't be. It's been a long time, and they were one of my favourite things  :( Delspencerdeltorro 08:43, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
I just found this page a few weeks before he stoped making these posts, but i found them all informative and interesting. but then he didn't make anything more for over three weeks, even though he supposedly updated once a week, he didn't mention this in his last blog and none of the other fans mentioned it on his talk page, so i figgured this was something that happened every now and then and nothing to care about. but there hasn't been any sign of life from this guy for at least 4 months, i keep checking back on the site once'a week but there's never anything at all. Tred 15:21, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Rankurusu

Howdy,

Love your articles, very enlightening.

I don't know if you've been following the new pokemon releases or not, but there is a new pokemon that looks kind of like a green blob with an embryo floating in it. When I first saw it I immediately thought Euglena, what do you think?

So more evidence that would point to this is the name, which supposedly means "chaotic", though I'm thinking this could also mean "archaic", as a reference to the archea (even though Euglena is a protist). Another interesting Euglena-like aspect is the red 'orbs' floating in its hand are really similar to the "eye" spots in Euglena. - unsigned comment from Paperstraw (talkcontribs)

It's too early to say at this point, but Rankurusu does indeed have some characteristics reminiscent of photosynthetic protists like Euglena. An archaea reference is unlikely but would be awesome (I studied archaea for years, and they have a special place in my heart...) - unsigned comment from George Hutcheon (talkcontribs)

Nosepass and Probopass

Hello, I love Nosepass and Probopass and I think they have a relation with the Moais, and also Probopass has (I think) a relation with Super Mario, because of the blue eyes, the moustache and the thing it has in the top of his head, that red thing is like the cap of Mario. Would you write a On the Origin of Species of them, please? Thank you. --CaptainBlueOlimar 00:14, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

A Suggestion for an Article

I was wondering if you could do an article on Gardevoir. I'm curious to see what led to the creation of this Pokemon. Gardevoir might be based on anesama ningyo, a Japanese paper doll, says its article. Its pale skin, featureless face and elaborate dress are all qualities of the doll. Furthermore, the Wikipedia article on Tsukumogami states, "Several Pokémon that are based on inanimate objects may be forms of Tsukumogami. These include Magnemite (magnets), Voltorb (Pokeball), Gardevoir (possibly anesama ningyou, a style of paper doll), Shedinja (the discarded exoskeleton of a Nincada after it evolves), Nosepass (Moai statue), Baltoy (shakōkidogū), Shuppet (teru teru bōzu, a Japanese paper doll resembling a ghost), Banette (Voodoo doll), Bronzor (a bronze mirror), and Bronzong (a bronze bell)." Gardevoir being a living doll might explain it being in the same egg group as "shapeless" Pokemon, such as Haunter or Muk. And its protective qualities may reflect paper doll heads being used to ward off evil. Anyway, I'm eager to know how this Pokemon came to be. Thanks! --DowsingMCHN 02:19, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Your Articles

Hey! I love your Origin Of Species, there very intresting. I was wondering if you could do one on Baltoy and Claydol? i've always found them very interesting :D Sapphiirexo2 21:01, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for Article

I'd really like an article on how Lucario and Riolu were inspired. They are sometimes believed to be based off the wp:Jackel, although it is sometimes believed to be Egyptian. Thanks, SpecialK 18:15, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion for Article

Hey- I LOVE your On the Origins... They are my favourite part of Bulpabedia. Any chance of doing one on Absol?

Thanks

Think you could do Gyarados and the Legendary Beasts?

I see people complain all the time about it not being a Dragon type, so I keep explaining to them about the Dragon Gate legend. However, I do have difficulty finding links to the legend itself, so I am starting to wonder if it is even a true legend, or made up by a few Pokemon fans sick and tired about people asking about Gyarados? Explaining the origin of Gyarados would quiet quite a few people. Same goes for the Beasts. I know almost 100% that Entei is based on a Shishi and Raikou on a Raiju that has taken the form of a tiger, but Suicune shows qualities in common with several legends, leaving it on the fence as to whether it is based on the Kirin, a wind god, or something completely different.--Shadowater 06:31, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Based on a Kirin.-444Zekrom 06:43, 04 September 2010 (UTC)

Mainly Praise

Hello there,

I find your Origin talks very interesting, I thought Mawile was simply based on a Venus Fly Trap! I hope you continue to write enthralling articles and I look forward to reading them.

Could you do an article on the Treecko family or the Swinub family? Or perhaps there's more to Eevee than simply a lot of evolutions?

Once again, thank you for introducing well researched articles and new sides to Pokémon we may have thought nothing of in the past.

Many Thanks, --Treecko Gal 15:38, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Praise/Discussion!

Howdy! I finally got around to reading your "On The Origin of Species" articles and find them very intelligent and well researched; this is one of the kind of things that I feel makes for the foundations for the making a great fan site!

Now one thing I wanted to share with you that came to mind while reading one of your articles is something I've come to understand about the Japanese...

  • A powerful concept in Japanese folklore is that of nazoraeru (準える), or substitution.
  • It was adapted from a Chinese practice which involved putting the teru teru bozu on the end of a broom to sweep good spirits your way.

A very common thread I seem to find in a lot of Japanese-related topics is this concept of "substitution", or other related terms such as "application" or "adaption"... where Japanese, as an island nation, has been--in a sense--"forced" to accept outside materials and goods. But rather than preserving the original shape/intent of the imported items, the Japanese modify it to fit their specific needs. Therefore, while there are some unique items and ideas that come from Japan, most of it is an adaption of something that they've imported. That's why even Westerners see the Japanese as being, well, "copycats"; that is, taking an idea someone else invented but making it "more efficient", though I don't see being a "copycat" as a bad thing.

To which, I guess my point here is, it doesn't surprise me that these Pokemon ideas are adapted from other things... but also adapted from things that have been adapted by the Japanese. As such, there really isn't a single truly "original" Pokemon creature; that is, a character that has been created from scratch. But "adapting" characters like this comes easy for the Japanese (as a people); their culture has been doing it for centuries! Now while I've always suspected this was the case, it's good to read your articles and being able to see this confirmation of sorts.

So, thanks for writing, and I look forward to your next installation! I wonder what other suspicions of mine turn out to be true. ;) - Nick15 07:24, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Regarding your articles

I and most others are appreciative of your posts here on Bulbanews, but is it ok if you post maybe one of these per week? Many of us are all excited for some good news, what with the new generation coming out, and some are not as satisfied when they see only an editorial regarding the origin of species. ht14 04:00, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

They do come out once a week, every Sunday, in fact. The Jirachi editorial was to celebrate Tanabata, which happened to fall on a Wednesday this year.--RexRacer 18:58, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Will You Ever Do This?

Your Origin Of Species articles are very fascinating. Tell me, will there ever be one for Pikachu? - unsigned comment from Eddygarfield19 (talkcontribs)

I've no plans to do Pikachu in the immediate future, I'm afraid. George Hutcheon 02:15, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Bummer. What other species do you intend to do origins on? Michael 1:57, 21 July 2010

Well, I can't give too many things away... but, um, see below for a hint... George Hutcheon 23:43, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey look at me, I'm making another suggestion like everybody else!

Well, your articles are amazing. Now, of course, everyone wants you to "do their favorite pokemon" but that's not what makes these articles great. My favorites are those 'mons whose origins are rooted in strange biology. It's just fascinating to see how crazy some of the stuff on our own planet can be.

Your recent article on Paras/Parasect caused me to take a wiki walk and eventually come across the intriguing Antlion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antlion). It should be obvious what Pokemon is based on this unique insect :P

So yeah. Here's my shameless begging for you to write an article on that, or at least, more whacked-out biology related material. Regardless, it's always a great read :) --- unsigned comment from HeroofTime55 (talkcontribs)

As a matter of fact, the relevant Pokemon family will be getting their own article very soon: if not this coming week, then a few weeks from now. And thanks! George Hutcheon 23:43, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
And the article did not disappoint at all!--HeroofTime55 08:33, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

New Pokemon Opinions?

I love your articles and in your area of expertise, what are your opinions on the pokemon Gochiruzeru(fallen angel/astral projection) and Victini(Nike, Goddess of victory, hence the wings)?

Also, I think the Snorunt line would make an interesting article! All about the Snow Country! - unsigned comment from Snozzardi (talkcontribs)

Suggestions

On the Origin of Species

Hey George, I´m a user of the PokéWiki and think your On the Origin of Species articles are great. So I wanted to ask you, if I may translate your articles to german. Of course we would we would refer to you or to the original article. What do you say? - - unsigned comment from Sprayduck (talkcontribs)

Sure, I have no problem with that. I'd be honoured, in fact! George Hutcheon 09:53, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! I've just asked a few users what they'd think about it. Most of them like the column very much, but they don't want to have it in the wiki because of the encyclopedia-thing and so on. I'll see if I can satisfy them, but It's always good to know that I have your permisson. - unsigned comment from Sprayduck (talkcontribs)

Oh, wow, I'm making a suggestion (duh)

Do you think you could do on Muk? Or Gyarados? Thanks.-444Zekrom 06:43, 04 September 2010 (UTC)

Smugleaf

I made an account to share this, especially Ranunculus Sardous. I reacted to the common colour scheme and in general long stems of buttercups, as well as the etymology of "sardonic". PLA 11:09, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

I was reading about this very genus just last week... firstly in connection with mandrakes, and then I was taken by the similarity of the name to Rankurusu, which could be romanized as Ranculus (At the moment I think the name is more related to 'homunculus', though). Tsutarja seems to be more ivy-based at the moment, but perhaps there'll be something in this once we get confirmation of its evos and their names. George Hutcheon 12:02, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Requests

I've been greatly enjoying your articles thus far. I would like to request two species to be made into articles if possible. First, the Squirtle family are my all-time favorite Pokemon. I don't know if there's enough substance to make an article on the 3, but if there is I'd love to read it. Second is one of my favorite Gen V Pokemon, Mijumaru and its evolutions. Particularly I think the shell weapons and the sudden transformation for otter to sealion would make for an interesting read. SidStarkiller 03:20, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

Lucario

If you do an article about it I think this might be relevant. --Venomoth 01:05, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Something a little different

Hey, I was wondering if you might delve into Pokemon with gender differences, and I mean ones that have really noticeable and explainable differences, like all those circumstances surrounding Nidoran, like how it's always been programmed as two separate Pokemon and whatnot, or perhaps the striking similarities between Kenhorou and the Common pheasant. Just thought I'd throw that out there as a (*gasp* he's gonna say it!) suggestion. Teamrocketspy621 19:22, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for writing this column, it is my absolute favorite and I check for new articles whenever I come to Bulbapedia looking for various tidbits to help me in SoulSilver. It's really gotten me interested in attaining an understanding of Pokémon beyond just their role in the games.

Additionally, like several previous posters, I also want to see an article about Lucario. It's my absolute favorite Pokémon from any generation. Chammy 00:22, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Requests

Um...could you possibly do an article on Skitty?--Darknesslover5000 02:41, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Daruma Pokemon

I'd just like to say that I love your articles. They are very informative. I was wondering if you could do an on the origin of... for Darumaka and Darmanita. I am a martial artist and have some knowledge of Bodhidharma, the man which these Pokemon are indirectly based.

You totally rock

I just discovered, and devoured, your articles. I wish I could think of something more clever to say than "They were great! I love them!" but that really is the simplest way to cover it. They're interesting, informative, and well-written, and a great deal of fun to read; your affection for the creatures really comes through. I hope you will keep writing, time and energy permitting. Heck, if you got enough essays together, maybe you could interest Nintendo U.S.A. in an educational book deal. But mostly I hope you write more because I enjoyed them so very much. Thank you.

Apologies

I am so sorry for creating an article called "Disney Channel absent from Pokémon". I will add something that is canon instead of fanon, OK? SaturnMario, his talk and his contributions 17:06, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Front Page-Expired/Outdated distributions/events/articles

Hey, not sure if you're the right person to go to, but all of the distributions listed excluding Meloetta (which has no end date) have ended already. I just wanted to let you know and confirm that you or your crack team of editors will make sure that distributions and other events/articles (with certain dates or days in them, ex. 11/20, Monday, tomorrow, etc.) are quickly removed/edited in the future, to avoid confusion. Thanks. KommanderAwesome (talk) 00:37, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

(another) Suggestion

How about the Aron line (When it's time to do Generation III)? Aggron is especially reminiscent of several monsters across mythology. Spyspotter (talk) 19:13, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Gerogie, I'm getting a little worried...

I was hoping that the latest article I submitted, about the title removal of the Iris/Clair special would be added, but it's been in draft form ever since I added it. Can you help me, please? ~~LDEJRuff~~ 14:01, 11 October, 2013 (UTC)

Page namespace

Is the amount of edits made to have access to the page namespace a secret like the amount of edits made to have your userspace rights? Pattyman (talk) 02:29, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Article for Disney XD premiere of Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon

Hey, George. I was wondering if you'd take this article I've written last Monday, out of draft form, please. I waited for SnorlaxMonster to do it, but he didn't. So, I'm counting on you to do it. Thank you. LDEJRuff 19:41, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

PLEASE do more On the Origin of Species articles, it's been over 4 years. Dinosauramiable (talk) 19:23, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
