On this episode of The Science of Pokemon, we take a closer look at the animals that rule the world, but can't stand up straight. The invertebrates, animals without backbones, make up most of the world's animals, but we rarely get to explore just how an animal with no brain or heart even work. How many of these animals are there? How does a Staryu eat? Why are there no worm Pokemon? Lots to learn and only so much time to do it! We hope you all enjoy it
