Quick correction for 1:58! Endothermic creatures are those that can regulate their body temperature internally, such as by their metabolism, making them warm blooded. Ectothermic creatures are those that have to rely on external factors, such as the sun, to regulate their body temperature, making them cold blooded. From what I can tell, “exothermic” only refers to chemical reactions that produce heat, which would then be pared with endothermic reactions that absorb and store heat, which may be where that confusion came from.

Also, Druddigon is supposedly meant to symbolize the semi-ugly (but also kinda funny and cute, in an ugly-cute way) gargoyles that were often perched on cathedrals and castles. Of which there are MANY in Wales. Its head being a separate color to the rest of its body being in reference to its unfinished, unpolished state, like the mason who carved it couldn't be bothered to add more definition to the face, said it was good enough, and just unveiled it as is. Likewise, the whole endothermic thing applies to gargoyles in folklore too; if it's too cold out, or if it is during the night of a thunderstorm (and they get hit by thunderbolt midflight), then they become paralyzed, and fall to the earth, breaking into stone pieces on impact.

Apparently in Welsh, the "dd" double consonant is pronounced the same way as the "th" sound in "Mouth" or "Month." A good example of this is Blaidd from _Elden Ring_ , whose name is pronounced "BLAY- _th_ " as opposed to "BLAY- _duh_ ." Also the etymology of Blaidd is the Welsh word for "Wolf" so his name means... "Wolf the Half-Wolf." Redundancy. So, I always pronounced its name as "Druth- _Y_ -Gon." ... Hope that clarifies. 🤷

A neat detail is the Red and White Dragon legend is brought back in Galar with the rivalry between Leon's Charizard (the "king" of the league) and Rohan's Duraladon (the attempted usurper). With that in mind, Charizard was not the worst pick for Leon's ace, but an even more Welsh Dragon inspired Druddigon evo would have been better (though unlikely given it's not a particularly popular Mon). Or maybe just a new red dragon mon.

@@Druid-T All fair points, unfortunately a lot of the complaints you'd see didn't go beyond "looks like it was drawn by a toddler". Personally I think its kinda cool looking, and while its not amazing that's actually a good thing. That allowed it to be available earlier and with less hassle as a "lesser dragon". It was a much needed balance change from dragons being reserved as "the best" Pokemon.

Druddigon has always been a favorite of mine. Why? Because cool dragon (and also Gen 5), that's why. Or at least I think that's why, honestly not too sure.. I've just always liked it. This video definitely made me appreciate the design even more than I did (and hopefully others will too, please it would be great if there were more than four Druddigon fans). I hope one day it gets an evolution or at least something to make it more worth using, right now it's just not since most of its stats are kinda meh (when it's even in the games at all..)

A knight came out to fight it, but he couldn't get through it's armored hide. It swallowed him whole and he found it was much squishier on the inside, so he cut his way out with a falchion.

3:10 I have a pet bearded dragon! They are so adorable. I have to say, you’re somewhat wrong. Beardie’s aren’t aggressive, but territorial. However, if you aren’t considered prey or a rival (such as a medium-large herbivore), it will ignore you. If you are massive, such as a human, it will be wary but will not attack even if you pick it up in the wild until all countermeasures fail. This is quite obvious with pet “Beardies”, who sometimes actually _enjoy_ being held. They are mostly insectivores, but majority will also happily dine on veggies and small fruit, as well as rodents big enough for them to chew (such as small rats used to feed snakes). But for 90% of the day, they will happily sit on their rock, in the sun, basking. The most recognizable feature on a bearded dragon, is, well, the beard! While other lizards may be able to puff out their chest, chin, and/or throat to make themselves appear larger, beardies are able to push it out and turn it deep black, which both warns the target and makes it appear larger. This is simply a defense mechanism, and should be taken as a warning to not get any closer (well, for animals. A human can get up close and it will run away instead of attacking). But the beard trick is actually a bit reminiscent of their cousin, the Frilled-neck lizard, which has massive frills that can pop out (like the dilophosaurus in Jurassic Park), but it is simply a defense mechanism to ward off attackers. It cannot spit venom or anything like that. But bearded dragons are part of the “dragon family”, or the “Amphibolurinae subfamily” which, as you can probably guess, is filled with many lizards that are nicknamed “dragon”. Though there are some exceptions to this family, such as the Frilled-neck Lizard or Thorny Devil. Most notably is the locations of these species. Being a subfamily, all these species are actually biologically super close. However, their habitats vary across the world. Most of them come from around Australia, but some are _native_ to southern USA/northern Mexico, Asia, and (I may be wrong) Europe. Somehow, these species which live so far away are extremely related to each other (still unable to usually produce viable offspring, but I am sure in super rare cases it can happen). But for druddigon, I’d say there are other reptiles that fit it better than the Bearded Dragon. I’m not a reptile expert, so I don’t know of many beyond Bearded Dragons, but there are plenty of species that are even spikier than the Bearded Dragon, such as the Horned Lizard (can shoot blood out of its eyes) and the Thorny Devil (is 90% spikes, 9% cuteness, 1% devil)

The connection between thistles and Druddigon of all Pokémon feels really weird, especially since Druddigon’s origins are very defined. Druddigon is clearly based on gargoyles and rock monsters, aside from the obvious western dragon. It’s clear from its cave habitat, rocky, craggy appearance, and aversion to sunlight, a trait shared by many rock creatures. Its wings aren’t leaves, but are more rocks or stalactites, while attempting to keep the generic wing shape in mind.

I freaking love Druddigon! Thank you for making a video on my boy!! One nitpick, though. "Endothermic" refer to something that generates its heat inside its body, aka a warm-blooded animal. "Ectothermic" means it sources its heat from the outside, aka cold-blooded. Think endoskeleton (skeleton on the inside like mammals) and exoskeleton (skeleton on the outside like lobsters). Also, the "Lord/Lady" thing is a scam, even though it does help preserve the land.
