This course explores more than 20 Pokémon and their possible connections to the mythology and culture of India. We will examine popular fan theories about the origins of these Pokémon, and weigh the merits (or lack thereof) in these ideas. Students will learn about cultural traditions that may have inspired Pokémon, and also several Indian myths and legends that could have been the basis for many popular Pokémon. While the focus of this class is the culture/mythology of India, it is through the narrow lens of the Pokémon world, and thus is not a comprehensive review of the entirety of Indian culture, folklore, or mythology. This is a self-paced class; there is no live component. Instead, students study 4-6 Pokémon each lesson, using videos, descriptions, comparisons, and extension activities to expand their learning beyond the basic course content. All extension activities are optional and at the discretion of the parent. Please note that three of my Pokémon Social Studies courses are formatted differently than the others. These courses are the ones covering China, India, and the Middle East. These three courses DO NOT have one long video lecture; instead, the Pokémon are explored individually via written passages. This way, learners can explore as many or as few topics at one time as they wish. Please keep in mind the different format before enrolling. Need a discount? Sure thing! All of my self-paced courses are "pay what you can afford." To get the discount you need, sign up for the course first, then message me with the discount you would like, and I will apply a partial refund. This must be done before the end of the first week of class.
