🦖 THE Greatest Dinosaur Pokémon. 🦕🦴 Gnoggin - Tyrantrum & Aurorus

it's localized entirely within my kitchen it all comes together pokemon x and y gave us amara auroras tyront and tyrantrum and you know what i said when they got revealed how did it take them this long to do a t-rex like seriously tyrannosaurus rex is the big cool the mega red hyper chad the the holographic charizard card of real life the most popular dinosaur and the one that most people think of when you ask them to think of a dinosaur spontaneously the only other big popular icon of dinosaurs dinosaurs i can think of would be like a stegosaurus or one of the long-necked ones in this video we are going to go over these four pokemon explain what they are why they are fossil pokemon why they are in kalos and also many cool facts about their design and the real animals they pull their inspiration from i'm loxton and this is noggin auroras and amora are long-necked dinosaurs they have those long necks to munch on tree stars however there are just so many different kinds of long-necked dinosaurs apatosaurus brachiosaurus camarasaurus diplodocus haplocanthosaurus saltasaurus argentinosaurus was the largest thing to ever walk on land at 97 tons and 35 meters making it longer than a blue whale though not as heavy but considering it doesn't have water to help with its weight it's honestly more ridiculous oh and how could i even forget the alamosaurus out of all of them though amora and auroras are heavily based on the dinosaur genus amargasaurus which was a sauropod dinosaur that lived during the early cretaceous epoch which was about 129 to 122 million years ago which is perfect because amora's dex states several times that it had been frozen in ice over 100 million years and this amargasaurus was discovered in what is now la amarga argentina and also hence the name of that argentinosaurus i mentioned we as in humanity not us here at noggin personally currently have only one complete skeleton of the only species in the genus amargosaurus kazawi kazoy kazooie and on it you can see two rows of these absolutely gorgeous and intimidating spines and in fact they are the longest spines on any sauropod discovered so far by a long shot and up until very recently it was believed that those spines were used to support two sets of sails reminiscent of the one on spinosaurus though that is currently believed to be unlikely and that they were most likely just very long spines covered in a keratinous sheath though most paleo artists still give both rows a small sail that only goes up halfway the spines or only on the spines on the back because why not it might still have had smallish sails so just draw them on because it looks cool until it's completely proven otherwise might be a while though because this dino is so recently discovered having only been discovered in the mid-1980s and there is such a small amount of evidence for what they looked like what with having only one mostly complete skeleton recovered there hasn't been much studying done on amargasaurus and what it did and did not have so like can you really blame the artists a sauropod with two partial sails or one with two rows of tall scary spikes on its back are both pretty cool in my opinion and this is why auroras and amora have sails on their head and auroras is going pretty far down its neck too maybe it's a nod to the fact that modern paleoart still shows these partial sails breaking news literally one day after writing this part of the script a new study comes out that states literally the exact opposite of everything i just said the study says both anatomical and histological evidence does not support the presence of a keratinized sheath and that the spatial distribution and relative orientation of the sharpay's fibers suggest the presence of an important system of interspinous ligaments that possibly connect successive hemispinous processes in amargosaurus these ligaments were distributed along the entirety of the hemispinous processes the differential distribution of secondary osteons indicates that the cervical hemispinous processes of a margosaurus were subjected to mechanical forces that generated higher compression strain on the anterior side of the elements current data support the hypothesis for the presence of a cervical sail in amargasaurus and other degradia swords uh so basically the way that the spines are connected to each other and the way that they are connected to the rest of the body indicates that there is evidence of a strain and kinds of tissue connections that would only be there if the spines were connected to each other in more spots than just at the base whether that is a set of two sails or some sort of fleshy hump or two remains to be seen i think that's what this is trying to say uh but since we're on the topic of its next spines let's talk about why the auroras line is a fossil mod specifically and not just a dinosaur inspired pokemon like many others as we've covered in all of the other fossil mon videos the main criteria for a fossil mon beyond the most obvious of it having to be something that is extinct is that it should be based on something or in some cases a few somethings that is important to our very foundational understanding of evolution and or how the earth was back when it was alive like how kabuto is based on a trilobite and trilobites are among the most abundant fossils ever and can be used to identify what period or epoch adjacent fossils are from with auroras here it is a bit simpler a margasaurus are an easily identifiable and memorable sauropod which is one of the few kinds of dinos you usually think of when you first hear the word dinosaur but also it is one of the most easily identifiable dicrayosaurid which is a family of sauropod dinosaurs there are several of dinos in the family which also have spines including bahadur saurus which has these awesome spines that point forwards instead of backwards and of course how could i not mention the eponymous dicrayosaurus but our boy amargasaurus is the most well-known and with the longest spines we've ever found on a sauropod which just gives it a million extra cool points and sauropods in general are powerful in terms of the ah and the interest that they give to kids and adults who like dinosaurs they just have the biggest necks the biggest bodies to think that something so huge could possibly even exist on land is a wonder of nature in and of itself it's inspiring honestly and even just parts of sauropod fossils like just the tale even as casts make people incredibly interested in learning more about them anyway the pokemon amora is described as having lived in a cold land where there were no violent predators like tyrantrum which is interesting because most sauropods lived in the same places and times as big tyrannosaurus and other carnivorous theropods but they didn't have to worry much about them because they were just so big and stompy that most predators just didn't even bother with them and the few that did decide to bother them would likely stick with hunting the young ones and the sick ones like most modern big predators but like seriously sauropods could pack a punch and they most likely were not afraid to do so yeah that's right you heard me they weren't just giant mindless tree trimmers they had backbone okay take that jurassic go park it's okay it's okay just think of it as kind of a big cat they'll come to think of it cows are sort of the same way when threatened so they logically should have had some fear in that moment at least hashtag lex was right but then game freak redeems themselves a little bit when it evolves into auroras which when gripped by rage will emanate freezing air covering everything around it in ice which sounds much more like a giant herbivore when faced with a predator or rival but it also sounds like having an auroras as a partner pokemon would be kind of a insane working hazard anyway though that's really about it on the amargasaurus inspired front but if we back up a step and look at the diplodecoidia superfamily we see that because they were on the smaller end of sauropods a lot of diplodocoids were able to rear on their hind legs to reach even higher up in the trees yeah i said smaller sauropods because despite what jurassic park has taught us larger sauropods such as brachiosaurus could not rear on their hind legs without breaking them also based on reconstructions of the one skeleton we have access to a margasaurus itself most likely could not rear up on its back legs either partially due to the way the spine's made which like well i'll give game freak a pass on this one since relatives could so you're all good plus the rule of cool a sauropod rearing on its hind legs looks pretty cool so just make your cartoon thing however you want cooler the better also auroras is significantly smaller than real lamarcosaurus is like they don't even compare really also another thing that most diplodocoids possessed was a very strong whip-like tail which if we look at auroras it too has a very long skinny tail that it keeps curled up and it ends in a little blip like a whip and as for etymology both of their names are double perfect both because of the ah in sauropod and dinosaur and also the au in aurora related fun fact the german name for auroras amar garga is a fun name to say and is a reference to the cave of gargas which is a set of caves in france that are famous in paleo archaeology for their cave art and artifacts of ancient humans which date back all the way to the upper paleolithic which was also the last ice age and also had remains of extinct animals in them which could be a reference to the fact that amora was found frozen solid within a glacier despite that not really being a thing for dinosaurs since the ice age had not happened yet when non-avian dinosaurs were still roaming the earth and usually that's the thing that happens with mammals including mammoths and this step bison which some russian and south korean scientists are suggesting trying to extract dna from and possibly revive so maybe we'll see real-life fossil month in our lifetimes eh but speaking of the cold and dinosaurs contrary to what people used to think there were dinosaurs that lived in regions that were either very cold year round or were very cold for part of the year and thus probably experienced snow for at least a part of the year and therefore had evolved ways to deal with said cold like pachyrenosaurus and you tyranus had feathers on their whole bodies basically and are so far the biggest very feathered dinosaurs we've found by a long shot and this ability to survive in the cold and the existence on feathers on a lot of them are just more evidence that dinosaurs were both warm-blooded and more active than pop culture tends to give them credit for another fun fact about the dinosaurs in colder regions many dinosaurs in colder climates like hypsilophadon had larger eyes than the ones in warmer climates which indicates that they had most likely evolved more accurate eyesight to be able to see better during the darker months which could very well be why amora has such freakishly huge eyeballs like come on it's like staring into your very soul and it's going to use everything it sees to shame you now non-dinosaur design auroras and amore are also based on the atmospheric phenomena known as an aurora or the polar lights auroras or if your fancy aurorae are nature's light shows i mean look at that they come in several colors depending on what altitude the observer and or the aurora itself are including ultraviolet and infrared which we humans cannot naturally see we're only able to observe them with equipment and like just imagine early humans seeing this it's pure magic heavenly souls and spirits themselves up in the sky but now we know they are caused by disturbances in the magnetosphere caused by the solar wind these disturbances alter the trajectories of charged particles in the magnetospheric plasma these particles mainly electrons and protons precipitate into the upper atmosphere and the resulting ionization and excitation of atmospheric constituents emit light of varying color and complexity basically the sun's like all over the earth and earth's like ew and it puts on a light show auroras can happen whenever but are most visible at night because of the contrast and that fact is likely why you can only evolve amora into auroras at night and i like how auroras's two sails undulate in a manner that is a lot like one of the patterns that aurorae can move in and the undulations can be either very slow so slow that you don't notice it or they can be fairly fast which is perfect given that both amora and auroras can change the speed of their sail's undulation and also colors at least in the newer games and since we're learning about auroras auroras happen mostly near both magnetic poles and if it's around the north pole it's called an aurora borealis mash it yes or as if it happens in the south it's called an aurora australis and what's really cool is that if there happens to be an aurora borealis going on that means there's also an aurora australis happening at the same time which is pretty cool just like the arctic and antarctic they happen in another fun fact auroras sometimes make noise it is a hauntingly beautiful noise too with a distinctive popping crackling followed by a spooky whistling and if you listen to amora's and aurora's cries they capture the ah and beauty of that whistling part that auroras sometimes sound like break time i feel like our two pokemon of the day fit today's sponsor really well hello me and my giant best friend regular sized piplup are here to tell you about today's sponsor tokyo tree and sakurako today we meet with the elegant and chill auroras who subscribes to sakurako's monthly box which includes up to 20 traditional and authentic artisan japanese snack items some of which originate from her time over a century ago it's made of shrimp that's what you eat you eat shrimp how this tyrantrum is high for tokyo treat a monthly box with up to 20 of the latest greatest limited edition and seasonally flavored snacks only available in japan for a limited time cookies and cream waffle this is barely legal this combination how oh it is better than i could have imagined because the texture i didn't even think about texture did somebody say pudding kitkats yes please i freaked out about it and hurt myself and did i mention that you can get five dollars off with the coupon code lockstin because you can look look look look cool cool cool cool cool look cool yes oh fruit and if you order by the end of the month you'll get the same box we showed here so go get yourself an educational and delicious box of goodies with the links in the description and big thanks again carmel popcorn soda you don't get any of this you're gonna get sticky yeah that's what it is now then tyrantrum and tyront are most clearly based on you guessed it tyrannosaurus rex [Music] the most famous dinosaur in the world and thus is probably the only dinosaur everyone knows the exact species name of like can you even think of the name of any particular triceratops species how about any specific apatosaurus species i don't even know what an apatosaurus is and i just mentioned it like 40 minutes 45 seconds ago the tyrannosaurus part of its name is its genus name whereas the rex is its species name and put together they form its binomial name and given that t-rex is the most easily recognized and famous dinosaur of all human paleontological knowledge and is also one of the ones with the most fossils found and the most studies done on it i don't think i really need to wax poetic about why it's a fossil pokemon instead of just a pokemon inspired by an extinct thing now do i and since long-necked dinosaurs are sort of the second place that's why auroras is a fossil mon too and let me tell you all about the amazingly terrifying mega beast that is t-rex there's a reason why it is the most famous dinosaur the world over there's a reason why i was able to find something as cool as this at just some generic craft store right how many dinosaur things do you think they have one it's t-rex do you think it's just that big and popular because it has the most epic scientific name which translates to tyrant lizard king or is it because it is one of the dinosaurs with the most remains we found due to it being such a successful predator that it got very widespread and populated or is it because it was a beast of a hunter well one super cool thing is that depending on which study or reconstruction you go off of it is either the largest land predator ever or is a very close second only behind giganotosaurus or giganotosaurus and also it could be tied with spinosaurus with a few other less well-known big theropods thrown in just to be safe but man the debates on who was the biggest is fierce among paleontologists and paleo nerds what a bunch of nerds nerd but either way t-rex was huge one of the largest specimens we've found named sioux has a length of 12.4 meters stands 3.96 meters tall at the hips and has been estimated at between 8.4 to 14 metric tons as of 2018 sue's head which is displayed separately from the rest of its body which has a cast of the head on it instead is almost five feet long and 272 kilograms all on its own speaking of t-rex's skull the fact that it's so wide at the rear compared to the front of the skull combined with the shape of the eye cavities meant that it had extremely good binocular vision because it's an extremely good predator and our big friend's nose was also highly developed and could most likely smell a carcass from miles away and was comparable to a modern vulture's sense of smell research on the olfactory bulbs has shown that t-rex had the most highly developed sense of smell of 21 sampled non-avian dinosaur species this by the way is a huge sample size for fossils since getting access to multiple specimens from multiple museums and universities is difficult even in our modern interconnected world and other recent studies have also shown that t-rex had an acute sense of hearing especially lower pitched sounds and most likely used this as a means to keep track of other t-rexes along with tracking prey it also seems to have had a very good sense of touch for a dinosaur and it might have used this gentle sense of touch as a way to safely move eggs around its nest with its head and to sense how hot or cold the nest was just like crocodiles they sure do look ferocious but they are very gentle loving mothers it also had the greatest bite force of any terrestrial animal of all time an adult tyrannosaurus could have exerted 35 000 to 57 000 newtons or about eight to thirteen thousand pounds of force in its back teeth a modern great white shark has about 10 000 newtons or 2 300 pounds of force so just use your memories of shark week to think about how terrifying that makes tyrannosaurus in comparison it most likely used this absolutely insane bite force to rip into bone and sinew so it could consume most or all of the body of its prey basically if something could fit in its mouth it could chomp through it and most things could fit in its mouth because it could open its mouth almost 80 degrees and given that the length of a large t-rex skull is about 5 feet long that means that a t-rex could definitely swallow a human hole probably without even giving it a second thought and this incredible size and strength definitely makes tyrantrum's dex entry stating that it could shred thick middle plates as if they were paper and that it was invincible in the ancient world it once inhabited that's definitely not far from reality even the baby of the two tyrunt has a dex entry that states it's immense jaws have enough destructive force that it can chew up an automobile it's very telling of the ferocity of both the pokemon line and the dinosaur they are based on oh and a fun little side note paleontologists have found a skeleton of an edmontosaurus a kind of duck-billed hadrosaur that was a common item on t-rex's menu that had a t-rex tooth embedded in its tail and it was able to go on and live a full hopefully happy life with a bone healing around the tooth after a minor infection life uh finds a way and that media trope about dinosaurs having dinky tiny little brains compared to their bodies is true for some species but not here t-rex did all of this with a relatively huge brain which was pretty complex and intelligent for a dinosaur its brain was one of the largest ratio-wise of any dinosaur tested only barely being beaten by a certain small maniraptiforms bambooraptor orniophimimus and troadon if i say it slow i have a higher chance of pronouncing it correctly um but all of them have intelligence comparable to modern crocodiles and even some modern birds there was one study that said that t-rex might have been as intelligent as a modern chimpanzee even but given that reptile brains and mammal brains work very differently that particular study is seen as extremely doubtful by most paleontologists either way our big friendo was bonkers smart for what it is and used this to rear their young well huntwell scavenge well and was a very fitting end to the line of tyrannosaurids t-rex lived during the late cretaceous period and was one of the very last non-avian dinosaurs the thing that finally took out t-rex was the kt extinction event aka the big meteor that took out all of the non-bird dinosaurs also if you don't know it's been somewhat recently confirmed to have been at the chicha loop crater that's that's where the big meteor like pew right into the world an anti-dinosaur vaccine now let's get to specimen fmnhpr 2081 more commonly known as sue probably the most well-known individual dinosaur in the world i mean first of all most dinosaur fossils we find are partial like very partial maybe a leg and a rib but sue has over 90 percent of the bulk found and is 73 complete in terms of the amount of bones and other fossilized viscera which is a lot for an actual dinosaur fossil but also sue is basically the mascot of the field museum of natural history in chicago illinois which is where their body has resided since 2000. sue also has an incredibly delightful official twitter account full of such amazing tweets as this and this [Music] i love this now sue has a very long and complicated history both when they were living and when they were discovered sue was discovered by american explorer and fossil collector susan hendrickson she had been on a fossil search with workers from the black hills institute a private corporation that specializes in retrieving and then selling fossils in 1992 bhi opened up the black hills museum of natural history in hill city a non-profit paleontological museum so why is it so displayed there well because that very same year while sue's bones were still being cleaned up and studied the spot where the institute was cleaning up the fossil was raided by the south dakota national guard due to disputes over whether the bhi had the legal right to the fossil because the owner of the land maurice williams claimed that the money they had paid him five thousand dollars had not been for the sale of the fossil and that he had only allowed larsen to remove and clean the fossil for later sale williams was a member of the sioux tribe and the tribe claimed the bones belonged to them however the property where the fossil had been found was held in trust by the united states department of the interior so basically it was a big old mess of who had the right to do what uh charging larson on 158 points the government transferred the remains to the south dakota school of mines and technology where the skeleton was stored until the penal and civil legal disputes were settled but this whole mess was so convoluted and so weirdly handled that the united states senate voted not to confirm the appointment of kevin scheifer as united states attorney for the district of south dakota due to the controversy of how he handled all of this so just like history's fun eventually williams the man who owned the land was given the rights to sue skeleton and he eventually decided to sell it because he wanted loads of money i guess loads of money so he partnered with sotheby's a broker of fancy stuff to auction the fossil then the field museum was all like dude we don't want the greatest piece of prehistory in history like the greatest fossil ever found to be hidden away in a hellishly minimalist mansion of some bourgeoisie troglobite but also we don't have the kind of money to uh buy that so they contacted a bunch of corporations and rich individuals like the california state university system walt disney parks and resorts mcdonald's ronald mcdonald's house charities and just a bunch of nouveau riche people who all agreed to help them on october 4th 1997 the auction began at half a million dollars less than 10 minutes later the field museum had purchased the remains with the highest bid of 7.6 million and the final price with all the fees and everything was 8 million three hundred and sixty two thousand five hundred dollars yeah that was not a typo eight point three million dollars but actually sue isn't even the most expensive dinosaur fossil ever but the most expensive dinosaur fossil ever is another t-rex may i introduce you to stan and the black hills institute had their hands on this one too stan was auctioned off to an anonymous seller for 31.8 million that's an even more unfathomably large amount of money stan will be the centerpiece to the still being built natural history museum in abu dhabi so that's neat anyways back to our lovely sue the cost of the auction combined with the cost of moving and preparing sue meant that they couldn't even afford to hall zoo upstairs to be displayed with all of the rest of the dinosaurs in the museum instead the fossil was put at the entrance of the museum for 18 years but as of 2018 sue is now in their own gallery which includes animated videos of what they would have looked like in real life doing such beautiful things as scavenging the dead remains of an ankylosaurus hunting and edmontosaurus and more and sue's head is so heavy and so important for studying that it is kept in a separate glass case that gives scientists easy access to it and also meant that they saved money on trying to make a scaffolding strong enough to mount a 600-pound skull to gotta penny pinch all that you can turns out that before dying sue survived a lot of wild stuff they lived till about 28 years old and survived parasites and broken bones and even gout they healed from a lot of injuries that take out even well taken care of domesticated animals with human care they had arthritis and we still do not know exactly what sue died of though the museum also commissioned blue rhino studio to make a life-size scientifically accurate model of sioux complete with a young edmontosaurus in their formidable jaws it's so so incredibly lifelike and not only is it accurate to t-rexes as a pole but it is also accurate to sew themselves it has the scars and the places that the bones tell us they would be and also signs of past infections and illnesses that the fossil says sue experienced also notice the veiny muscly flesh the meat on dem bones the lack of weird sunken pits in the cheeks why it's a beauty to behold dinosaurs especially carnivorous dinosaurs do not have the sunken in cheeks that a lot of media likes to depict them as having like it makes them look scarier yeah but it's not right i do get where the idea comes from though because their skulls do have these weird holes on the sides which a lot of paleo artists throughout the decades have taken to mean that these parts of the face must be sunken in but no these weird holes were for connective tissues for their incredibly strong and robust musculature system speaking of a robust musculature system a big part of why t-rex has the hilariously puny arms that it does is because you could only have so much musculature and ligaments running through the entire body especially between the head and arms without taxing the body too much so evolution had basically decided that t-rex and most of the other later tyrannosaurids should have those insanely powerful terrifying jaws but doing so takes points away from arm's strength essentially but these tiny little arms are still fairly strong all things considered most estimates place it at about at least as strong enough to rip a human arm clean off you know it probably used this strength to help hold carcasses in place while it ripped and shredded through them um and to help ride itself after sleeping or having fallen down i've fallen and i can't get up but it most definitely could not use these arms during actual hunting but wait a second i thought t-rex and most other dinosaurs like it all had feathers so why doesn't this most scientifically accurate model have them you may be thinking well for t-rex specifically we don't know for certain if it may or may not have had feathers there is some proof that they had protofeathers as babies but lost them during adolescence using them for thermal regulation while they were smaller basically but we have yet to find any shreds of proof of protofeathers on adult t-rex and in fact we have skin impressions that show scales but of course that doesn't necessarily prove that they didn't have feathers because it's possible that those particular spots didn't have feathers and they had feathers elsewhere and also we know from other dinosaurs that some of them just have feathers growing between the scales so it ki it's kind of up in the air but the most agreed upon thing is that t-rex as an adult specifically did not or at least not completely though there are smaller tyrannosaurs such as dailong and our beloved eu tyranus with feathers on most of their bodies which may have been an inspiration for the white feather-like protrusions on both tyrant and tyrantrum and also the white on tri-ranch rum's chim but since we're finally talking about the pokemon themselves again both tyrant and tyrantrum have two clawed fingers on their arms and three clawed toes on their feet which is accurate to t-rex and most other tyrannosaurus the orange crown-like crest on tyrantrum and to a lesser extent these two little horns on tyrant could be inspired by the crests on other carnivorous dinosaurs such as allosaurus and carnotaurus for tyrant specifically and for tyrantrum dilophosaurus and cryolophosaurus which is actually the only crested dinosaur with a crest that goes perpendicular to the skull instead of along the length of it the same way tyrantrums works tyrants smaller bumps or crests could be a reference to gorgosaurus as well which had similar bumps above its eyes and this crown-like crest along with the regal looking beard of tyrantrum and the white collar-like feathers on both of their necks make them look very kingly which is extremely befitting of a dinosaur based on the tyrant lizard king and also the dex is constantly hammering home that tyrantrum behaved like a king and the tyrant part is very apparent in both of their dexes since it is said that if something happens that it doesn't like it throws a tantrum and runs wild which brings to mind the entitled young prince trope especially paired with ultra moon's entry which states tyrant is spoiled and selfish it may just be trying to frolic but sometimes the ones it's trying to frolic with are gravely injured and this royal tyrant kingly nature of them could also explain the dragon type in many stories dragons are very much tyrannical rulers hoarding wealth demanding sacrifices things of that nature plus like t-rex is kind of already almost a dragon he's just like slap some wings on a theropod dinosaur boom dragon and both of these pokemon having many reflective orange or golden parts is definitely a reference to how rich kings are and draws on the heavy use of gold as a motif to show royalty it's not as obvious in their original art but looking at their pokemon home art the orange parts are definitely more reflective like gold and then their shinies have the gold replaced with silver most likely because it's actually platinum which is often regarded as just as if not more prized and this brings us to why these four fossil pokemon are in kalos which is based on france europe has had plenty of tyrant kings throughout its history many wars fought over nothing more than a king just wanting something another king has or just straight up power as for france specifically napoleon bonaparte is said by many to have been a tyrant emperor and his name is fitting of a t-rex too it's gonna rip your bones apart but of course we cannot talk about bad kings without mentioning king louis xvi the king in power during one of the most famous revolutions in history the french revolution the main french revolution as some historians put it louie's indecisiveness and conservatism led some elements of the people of france to view him as a symbol of the perceived tyranny of the onsen regime and his popularity deteriorated progressively and that's putting it lightly his greed eventually led to a wealth gap almost as bad as the us's today and so the people brought out the guillotines but all of this talk of kings and monarchs in relation to tyrantrum makes me wonder then if the intent with auroras more feminine features is to make it more queenly these two are partner pokemon after all could this in turn mean that auroras is partially inspired by the snow queen a famous swedish fairy tale that would go on to inspire the massive disney movie frozen perhaps after all kalos has quite a number of more northern european inspired pokemon such as heck the legendary trio all pulling from norse mythology and also auroras already with its aurora borealis frills honestly that's a big enough connection to northern europe that like saying it's the snow queen like duh auroras is colored and icy blue like most of the ice queen's gowns which also are similarly adorned with ice crystals also smaller detail but i really like how aurora's neck changes colors with this edge of a snowflake line it's a really nice touch but also perhaps you could see its long sails as a reference to a hennen these tall hats with long flowing fabric typically worn by queens princesses and noble women primarily those in burgundy and france so really it just all lines up perfectly and i love when that happens but what do you think do you like the gen 6 legendary pokemon i sure do and do you think we should sort of continue this fossil series by also looking into the non-fossil pokemon that are inspired by dinosaurs and such let me know below and until next time never stop using your
