171: Lanturn
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 171st lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson will be on Lanturn: the Light Pokémon and evolved form of Chinchou. Like its pre-evolution, Lanturn is known for the bright light it produces. Lanturn was given the nickname ‘The Deep-Sea Star’ due to how intense its flashing orbs are, which are visible on the surface from a depth of over 3 miles. What a bright little fella! And as a reminder, be sure to send submissions for Class President before February 7 - time is running out! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

170: Chinchou
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 170th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson today will be all about Chinchou: the Angler Pokémon. This totally-not-bug-type is known for its antennae that shoot positive and negative electricity. And as you can imagine, these antennae glow quite bright! Chinchou uses them to communicate with others while it traverses the dark ocean floor. Light your own path, am I right? Fun message for the day, kids!

169: Crobat
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 169th lesson on Pokémon biology. This lesson today will be all about Crobat: the Bat Pokémon and final evolved form of Zubat. If you thought Golbat was scary, think again! Crobat is a masterful flier - so much so that it can now fly silently. Seriously, you can’t hear a thing. Crobat can quickly swoop down, bite your neck with its sharp fangs, and suck your blood… without you ever noticing. Terrifying, right? This should’ve been our Halloween lesson.

168: Ariados
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 168th lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s lesson is about Ariados: the Long Leg Pokémon and evolved form of Spinarak. This elusive predator hunts at night. Ariados captures its prey by webbing it up, where it then bites the victim and sucks out their bodily fluids. Mmmm yummy! But sometimes, Ariados will simply attach silk to its prey and set it free. It will then track its prey again and kill it along with their friends. Sounds like quite a party! And students, be sure to send submissions for Class President before February 7! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

167: Spinarak
Hello there! Welcome to our 167th lesson on Pokémon biology, taught by our very own teaching assistant: Mr. Kurtis! And this lesson is all about Spinarak: the String Spit Pokémon and Mr. Kurtis’ personal favorite. Spinarak is a small, nocturnal bug Pokémon that is known for its strong webs. These webs are so strong in fact, that they are able to hold heavy rocks. But not boulders. At which point does a rock become a boulder anyway? Spinarak is a patient hunter and will wait for days to capture prey in its web. What do you think Spinarak’s favorite meal is? We’ll let Mr. Kurtis tell you in today’s fun-filled lesson! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

166: Ledian
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 166th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is about Ledian: the Five Star Pokémon and evolved form of Ledyba. This little Pokémon is nocturnal and loves to sleep during the day wrapped in leaves. When night falls, Ledian wakes and flies around eating berries while it scatters glowing powder everywhere. Rumor has it that this powder brings you good luck. So be on the lookout for some Ledian powder if you want to start the New Year feeling lucky! There’s more to learn about Ledian, so take detailed notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

165: Ledyba
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 165th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson is all about Ledyba: the Five Star Pokémon. Ledyba is quite the social little bug. It loves to hang out in large groups. These group huddles are a bonus in the winter because all the Ledyba get warm and cozy! Adorbs. Ledyba also secretes an aromatic fluid from its joints to communicate with others. And what does this fluid mean? Well, there’s only one way to find out: pay attention and take notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

164: Noctowl
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 164th lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s lesson is on Noctowl: the Owl Pokémon and evolved form of Hoothoot. What was once a cute little bird Pokémon is now the “Emperor of Dark Nights” as some claim. Noctowl has incredible eyesight that allows it to see in minimal light. Noctowl is also an assassin… kinda. It is capable of silent flight, allowing it to effectively sneak up on prey. And there’s so much more to learn about Noctowl, so make sure you take good notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 163rd lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson is all about Hoothoot: the Owl Pokémon, which is the mascot for our wonderful class! Have you students noticed how Lex cries every lesson? That’s because Hoothoot always cries at the same time every day while tilting its head in rhythm. Want to know how it does that? Well, we can’t spoil the lesson - duh!

162: Furret
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 162nd lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s lesson is all about Furret: the Long Body Pokémon and evolved form of Sentret. This adorable Pokémon is slim and agile - allowing it to quickly maneuver underground through burrows. These burrows are specially crafted by Furret for their bodies, making it difficult for other Pokémon to enter. And in this well-protected maze of burrows is where Furret makes its nest. Just picture a bunch of Furret cuddling together in a tunnel… talk about ADORABLE!

161: Sentret
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 161st lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s lesson is on Sentret: the Scout Pokémon. This normal type is very timid and cautious. It’s often seen standing on its big tail, carefully observing its surroundings. There’s always at least one Sentret keeping watching. They quite literally take shifts. Isn’t that adorable? And when danger does come, Sentret warns its friends by slamming its tail on the ground and screaming. Sounds like my Monday mornings. There’s more to learn about Sentret, so take diligent notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠⁠⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠⁠⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠⁠⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

160: Feraligatr
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 160th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this class today is all about Feraligatr: the Big Jaw Pokémon and final evolved form of Totodile. If you thought Croconaw had a big mouth… think again! Feraligatr has incredibly powerful jaws, which it uses to eviscerate its foes. Like totally dismembering them. Really neat stuff! Feraligatr is such a hefty Pokémon that it typically walks on all fours on land. But beware… that’s when it’s most agile and deadly.

159: Croconaw
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 159th lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s lesson is about Croconaw: the Big Jaw Pokémon and evolved form of Totodile. This Pokémon always has 48 fangs inside its mouth. Always. No matter what. And if it loses a tooth, well guess what? Croconaw just grows it back! And these fangs are no joke. They are like barbed fish hooks, perfect for ripping and tearing flesh. Hope you’re not reading this while eating. So take notes because there’s more to learn about Croconaw! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord:⁠ https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru⁠ ►Other Social Media:⁠ https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

158: Totodile
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 158th lesson on Pokémon biology. Today’s class will be all about Totodile: the Big Jaw Pokémon. If it wasn’t obvious, this feisty water starter loves to bite. Totodile is naturally very playful, but it just can’t help itself! If Totodile sees an object moving, there’s a high probability it’s getting bitten! These big jaws are capable of crushing anything. So trainers, you might want to throw your poffins towards your Totodile - hand-feeding is not recommended!

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 157th lesson on Pokémon biology. And this lesson is on Typhlosion: the Volcano Pokémon and final evolved form of Cyndaquil. When this powerful fire type gets angry, it is capable of making anything go up in flames… anything. Typhlosion can also create explosions by simply rubbing its fur together. Wait, does this mean I can’t give Typhlosion belly rubs!? I need answers! There’s much more to learn about Typhlosion, including its ancient Hisuian form, so be sure to take good notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru ►Other Social Media: https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

156: Quilava
Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 156th lesson on Pokémon biology. And today’s class is all about Quilava: the Volcano Pokémon and evolved form of Cyndaquil. Quilava will never turn its back on you… unless you’re its enemy! In battles, Quilava will turn its back towards foes and use intense flames and hot gusts of air to attack. And if you try to fight fire with fire, think again. Quilava’s fur is non-flammable, so any fire attacks against it are useless. There’s way more to learn about Quilava, so please take good notes! ►Support the Professor's class on Patreon: patreon.com/wwopokemon ►Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/Jc5P2Mk6Ru ►Other Social Media: https://linktr.ee/wwopokemon

Hello there! Welcome to Professor Jacob’s 155th lesson on Pokémon biology. And for this lesson, we will be discussing Cyndaquil: the Fire Mouse Pokémon. This Johto fire starter is known for the four red circles on its back, which erupt into flames that resemble spines. And the more angry Cyndaquil gets, the more powerful the fire. Geez… talk about anger issues. Kidding! Cyndaquil is actually pretty timid and loves a good snuggle. Just be mindful of those fiery, red circles!
