Check out the link in the description for their 3D reconstruction animations Note on Pikaia: After further reading, i found out that it's named after the Pika Peak in Alberta, Canada. The Pika Peak itself is named after Pika the animal.
-
You forget to explain about Paleozoic Rollback
-
Yugituber: "yeah, these bacteria..." Anomalocaris: I am gonna practice unconsensual mitosis with your body ✂️
-
I Hope Josh sees This vid
-
The trilobite community will remember this
-
that farfa shade was insane lol.
-
In case you were wondering: in modern variants of Paleozoics the best main deck Paleozoic traps are actually Marella and Leanchoilia because they can respectively send and recycle "Transaction Rollback" to your graveyard. Transaction Rollback is a trap that you can banish from your graveyard in order to activate the effect of any other trap card in your graveyard (circumventing it's cost), which is absurdly powerful. Olenoides, Dinomischus and Canadia are also played because for one their effects decent, but their main purpose is being extra bodies you can summon from grave to facilitate getting your XYZ Paleos asap. Eldonia, Halucigenia and Pikaia see no play since their effects are awful.

marrella: "i bury gun" leanchoilia: "oh shit the gun escaped"
-
It was so fun and entertaining watching someone who knows both ends (zoology and yugioh) analyze these cards. Great video!!
-
Id like to imagine Anamolocaris excavating a card is the equivalent of it going on a hunt, with a successful one letting you add its prey to your hand
-
Paleozoic Olenoides S/T removal effect is a callback to another card called Deep Sweeper.
-
These are the kind of yugioh archetypes that I think are the coolest, ones that are based in some kind of reality that you would be quizzed on for pub trivia or something Like, nowadays if I see a picture of one of these prehistoric creatures, I usually can remember what its name is just based in the equivalent yugioh card lol
-
Just found this channel and not even 1 min "have you read misc?" bruh im rolling rn, are you actually a yugioh player? W channel
-
great video, but you forgot to mention the most recently discovered fossil of a 25 meter-long Mech
-
This is the YGO content I've been craving. Ty.
-
I can't wait for someone to write a university dissertation on the Paleozoic era and reference this archetype
-
I was tellimg a friend about this Archetype yesterday and now it pops up in my recommendations. For once I'm glad my phone's listening in on me, lol.
-
These are some of my favourite cards in Yugioh! Such a fun deck to play and such cool art!
-
Funniest part about this is the decks best friend is a big derpy toad
-
I have no idea why but the POV leanchoilia about to eat you made me laugh.
