Only question I have is why is the filler video unrelated to the video topic at hand? Surely you'd want to capture footage of the Pokémon you're talking about instead of some Kalos play through?
I actually love a lot of the baby pokemon designs, but i wish some of their evolutions would've gotten a buff when their babies came out. Chimecho and Wobbufett should've been given stats more befitting an adult mon especially. Both would've been easy to do too. Give Chimecho a higher speed and sp atk or sp def (personally i feel like Chimecho's design says high hp, high sp def, and good speed, but eh). Give Wobbufett a def/sp def boost and more hp (also REDISTRJBUTE ITS OFFENSIVE STATS, it will never cease to amaze me when Gamefreak gives certain pokemon such pointless stats (looking at you Shedinja's defenses))
I saw the thumbnail and was legit ready to type an essay on why Umbreon isn’t a bad evolution, but as an Umbreon lover, I gotta say… Cool clickbait, my guy
Surprised Dudunsparce didn’t get a mention! Not because Dunsparce didn’t deserve an evo (because it felt long overdue imo) but because of how they clearly deliberately botched its design 😅🙈
I actually like Munchlax. It always felt weird for a massive Snorlax to hatch from an egg, so creating a smaller version seems reasonable and justified to me.
Slowking was so unnecessary. The design barely changes and the only difference (statewise) is the Defense and Special Defense being swapped. Now that I’m thinking about it a lot of Johto Pokemon are unnecessary.
baby pokemon would be cool if they were available more in the wild so that you could have access to more pokemon in the early game that would evolve later on. only getting most of them from breeding in some games sucks
Loved Hgss and Bw/bw2. So many nostalgia moments with these games, thanks to their gimick features with the pokewalker for hgss and the dream world for bw
I won’t lie, I am a Lickilicky and Probopass defender but Ambipom is absolutely one of my all-time least favorite Pokémon ever. I know it’s an evolution to a regional variant but I have to mention Sneasler. In the bottom 10 right with Ambipom. As for the babies, yeah most of them are pretty unnecessary. With the exception of Pichu and Elekid, I don’t care too much about the babies and I’m glad they’ve kinda strayed away from making more of them.
The prices on some cards on tcgplayer r insane for this set, like the fezindipiti regular ex is $25! Hope thsts not the prices when the set comes out tho
@@PokemonRangerJackson I do to, the pull rates seem horible but I also do feel like the prices will go down a lot when the set actualy releases tho bc there’s no way the fezindipiti is $20 more than the dusknoir
[Edit: This intro sounds more accusatory than I meant it. All in good fun! :-)] My dude... have you PLAYED Gen 6? It is explicitly stated that Mega stones appeared after AZ fired the Ultimate weapon, which infused the stones with Infinity energy (as mentioned in ORAS). In ORAS, Zenia hypothesizes the existence of a universe where the Ultimate Weapon was never fired and therefore there would be no Mega Energy. If the Link Cable sent the meteor to that universe, they would be unable to defend against it.
Pokemon has been trying to do way too much with many of these games. I feel like old pixel-y graphics and music became integrated into the charm of the game. Now with these "crazy 3d worlds" it stripped away that charm people loved. Those old graphics and music is what pokemon IS. Look at any notable game or game series that overhauled graphics in a huge way and many times it was a negative (I don't mean early access games like how Rust was overhauled, I mean a game that have been around for a while then the art style was completely changed, similar to how runescape transitioned to runescape 3... it gutted all the charm.) Not to mention these "innovative" 3d worlds have big optimization problems, gameplay is framey and genuinely don't look good *enough* to justify the art style change. Although a lot of that sentiment from the community is nostalgia, I can say those older games were objectively better for a few reasons, one including the style. Having never gotten very far or even beaten Soul Silver, I have very little memory and nostalgia for it but I have been replaying it and have almost beaten it. 15 Years later I experience an almost entirely new (and old) version of pokemon that makes the last 4 main line games look like absolute garbage. They think we need and what crazier graphics, more realistic gameplay, innovative feature, but no. We want the charm back...
Stong and Agile style makes a lot of sense if you paid attention to the turn table on your right side when you're in battle, allowing you to see if you get an additional turn or not based on the move's Agile Style of how much of an impact it will create with Strong Style. If you played other RPGs, this is easier to pay attention too, and allowed a dynamic system to the turn based mechanics. As for HGSS, it was the best of what they offered for Gen 4, especially after the greatness that was Platinum. It gave us Johto in a modern lens of that time, all the Pokemon of that time, and just a much better experience of Johto period. Truly the peak of Gen 4 before Gen 5 arrived.
ty for bringing up the struggle colorblind ppl have to deal with when shiny hunting 😭. I personally enjoy shiny hunting whenever i’m in my pokémon phase and it’s so annoying how restricted I am FROM shiny hunting. I genuinely can’t shiny hunt specific pokémon because it’s literally impossible for me to tell the difference between them…
five packs---minus energy and trainer.more like 45-43 . pokemon has been shorting hit cards so you buy more🤔.I bought the set in Japanese and got a complete set.and all 5 dark chase cards.the meaning of the story 🤔 pokemon is getting greedy.stellar crown is already getting hype over shrouded.shrouded is a 🔥🔥 setnot getting the hype
Pokémon Eras The Classic Era (Generations 1 & 2) The Bronze Era (Generations 3-5) The Modern Era (Generations 6-9) The Revamp Era (Generation 10-Present)
I'm not going to lie your title shocked me I looked on my feed and I see someone saying HeartGold and SoulSilver are the best games don't get me wrong it introduced some nice fun things like you mentioned pokewalker and follow me Pokemon is absolutely amazing and cute. that's about it the game itself the gameplay it's pretty bad every single Pokemon is literally just a rip-off of the other kanto Pokemon like maybe you didn't notice it but did you notice that typlosion has the same exact stats as Charizard. Also how about the level scaling I did a hardcore nuzlocke of that game which basically means that every single time I have to make sure I was at the level cap for each gym leader and I will tell you it was incredibly difficult to grind because the wild Pokemon do not match the levels that you should be at for example the level cap for Morty the Ghost gym leader he is a third gym leader is level cap is level 25 so I went to go train in the wild the wild Pokemon were at level 15 and level 13. 💀 Doesn't even match the level that we should be at by now you should be in your twenties after defeating Whitney(her level cap being level 19) so why the hell are the wild Pokemon still level 13 and 15. I should remind you this doesn't happen in fire Red because when you reach Erica the grass gym leader the wild Pokemon are at level 21 to level 23. That matches the game because the gym leader is at level 29. And it's not just that it gets even worse towards the end of the game the level cap for red is level 88 the wild Pokemon are level 39. That's not even close to what the level cap should be. I don't even go to mention Claire her Pokemon being at level 41 and the wild Pokemon being at level 23 does that even make sense. Obviously level scaling is a problem and now I want to talk about the dex the dex is absolutely horrendous. And ask someone who did a hardcore nuzlocke I will tell you how horrendous the dex I'm not even talking like design wise cuz design wise you might be able to like the Pokémon but stat wise 💀. Seriously name your favorite Pokemon in Johto and it's likely that Pokemon is a terrible Pokemon in competitive. this game didn't release that many new Pokemon they honestly just took Kanto Pokemon and it makes sense considering this entire gameplay hinges on your love and nostalgia of Kanto but when you look at something from just Johto you realize that there's not many new Johto Pokemon not to mention good ones. Only reason people like HeartGold and SoulSilver because of the nice gimmicks introduced like the night and day cycle or the post game fight with red or the following Pokemon. And that's truly what you were pointing out in your videos but those gimmicks are not enough to save the entire game cuz generation 9 introduced the same thing like changing your type or gen 8 which introduced dynmax. Every single game has its gimmicks but do not use the gimmicks to say well the entire game is good now no mega evolution is not enough to save the game from its flaws. Soulsilver and it's sister are incredibly flawed games when you look past the cute gimmicks. I used to be one of those people that love the game because of its you gimmicks but after I just finished my hardcore nuzlocke of the game revisited and after playing it I was like wow this game is pretty bad gameplay wise. Heartgold and SoulSilver and gold and silver in general are probably the perfect example of Pokemon Rushing games play someone in the writer's room was like "oh my God we have to make a new game" and "they're like we can't really come up with much I have writer's block so they said you know what screw it just take everything we took from the first game and put it into this game well at least a little nice gimmick here and there and that should hold them off."
Now the game wasn't terrible at least not as bad as gen 9 I have some fun playing the game but they really are overrated and the best games is definitely a overstatement
It's just my opinion ! I don't know if there is a definitive "best" in the series. But I'm surprised you haven't heard it before, I've heard from quite a few people that it's their favorites as well.
The release for Shrouded Fable has actually been pushed back to the end of August now. Nice short video! I would work on that for of light that’s on the cards. It makes it a little hard to see what you’re showing straight on.
