Mind-blown by this theory, this writer was tempted to open the comment section and find out what Pokémon fans had to say about this. We kept looking for a counter-argument, but instead were given an array of theories birthed from this one. For instance, what if Nurse Joy is actually Ditto, and does that mean Officer Jenny is a Pokémon too?

This led to us rummaging through the podcasters’ feed. Their account is full of one-minute video podcasts, where they reveal theories and unknown facts of cartoons some of us have grown up watching. The hosts, Drew Wentworth (below) and Randy Wentworth, roll out at least two such videos daily, and have covered famous cartoon characters like Tom and Jerry, Sonic, Spongebob, and Mario, among others. This video podcast platform began nearly three months ago, and has more than 400 posts, 159K followers on Instagram, 750K subscribers on YouTube.

Another video that got us thinking was one where they suggest that Cubone is actually a Charmander, whose mother Charizard died, and now the defenseless Pokémon wears its mother’s skull around for protection. 

While the videos are solely based on theories, we love how it let us relive and reimagine our favourite cartoon. What adds to the fun is that you can directly engage with likeminded people on the comments section, unlike a podcast on other audio-only platforms.
