Every Pokédex Ranked 

People seem to think that the spinning light-up pokedex does nothing, but I have it on good authority that it does scan real living pokemon if you manage to find one in the wild.

Here's a fun fact: The pokedex that said "scan your pokemon" doesn't actually do anything. That's literally it. It just spins and says scan your pokemon. Theres a version in japan with a screen and actual functions, but the one in america is just that.

"If you have a pokedex that doesn't have pikachu, I'll burn you at the stake." Unova: *panics in New York accent*

Peter: *begins looking for Pikachu in Unova Pokedex* Me: *flashbacks to when I spent 3 hours trying to find Pikachu in B&W*

I love how the valve logo music kicks in whenever patter takes a sip of his jarate

Patter: “normal types don’t exist” Eevee: “aight then” *dissolves*

“are your pokemon just pterodactyls?” aerodactyl: 👁👄👁

I love how Peter's drink kept having the valve sound next to it, it's almost like it's a certain item from one of their games

I cannot stop laughing and watching the intro again and again only to realise yoshi was there and completely lose it

Can't tell if you are getting into pokemon or hate it even more

I actually like it when people no nothing about the subject it gives a unique and honest opinion of whatever the topic is. Some people who know or have been exposed to the subject have a bias or doesn't give much detail to how they really feel. Those reviews tend to be short and needs the audience to treat their opinion like an inside joke; both parties have to know the reference.

"I've purchased all of the United States Pokédexes" Non-Unovan-or-Alolan dexes: [exist]

For actual clarification the Normal type is a type given to pokemon that most closely resemble actual real life 'normal' animals, such as Ratata being just a real life rat aside from being purple, or pidgy just being a bird

I actually have the Sinnoh pokedex! It somehow managed to elude "the void where things from your childhood disappear to forever"

I like how the 90s one is literally the most featured and best looking. The rest are gimmicky crap.

Patter has an appropriate amount of Pokemon knowledge for a Sonic fan.

“the pokémon were black and white when this was made” well he isn’t entirely wrong

Genuinely love that you're uploading more frequent, your videos are a good laugh

I got the 1997 Pokedex at a thrift store like ten years ago and its batteries that were inside it when I got it still work to this day...I played with it for an absolute shit ton of time and basically it lets you search for all gen 1 Pokemon by name, number, type, height, and other settings. It has pixel art animation for idol poses and attacking poses for all 150, info on all of them, and your standard Pokedex entries. It also has a calculator, built in clock, and a password system to where you can document your own pokemon that you've caught in the actual Pokemon games. It's a generally really well made product especially for its time and I still enjoyed it in the 2010s. Honestly it's probably one of the best from all of these, if not the best. And yes, it has Pikachu. I was looking forward to you reviewing it but yeah a problem with it is that is has one of those batteries. I'm glad mine somehow haven't died since I got the Pokedex years ago...

The current Pokedex in the series is on one's mobile phone that is also a literal Pokemon (Rotom), and Bulbapedia is a Pokemon resource that has an Android and iOS app, and trust me that it has information on everything Pokemon that Wikipedia doesn't. Also, every Pokedex has Pikachu but it isn't the same dex number in every gen.

The 1998 Pokedex that you did not get to test is actually SS tier. Thats the one I had as a kid and is definitely the best one. You need to try it.

i lost my fucking mind at "chikorita is my wife"

im getting scared of how peter automatically says "wife" when talking about chikorita

The piss jar of legend. We better see that more than we've seen Sliver recently

I was gonna ask why he stopped at the kalos dex but then I remember they stopped making them available outside of japan after that

“Self-deprecation jokes aren’t funny anymore” I guess this channels dead then

I had the Hoenn and Sinnoh Dexs and I'd completely forgotten that I did until you turned them on and I heard the beeps and boops. Big nostalgia trip, thanks.

Peter: I've never seen a normal type pokemon Eevee in the background

I remember getting my gen 4 Pokédex for my 8th birthday, and how insanely futuristic it seemed to my stupid kid brain. Found it 2 years ago and was very disappointed reusing it

An absolute nostalgia ballon splooshed on me when I heard that “ Turtwig, is a GRASS - type Pokemon”. Wow. Anyways, mine had a few more functions then just find a Pokémon and Pokémon Search. There was also at least Pokémon trivia, Pokémon match, and options on mine, but I think there was also one more.

i love how the valve tf2 intro music plays every time we see the "piss bottle".

"Us modern trainers, ages 10-12, use Wikipedia," And us intellectual trainers use Bulbapedia, the more reliable source for Pokémon information. Also, Pokédexs are designed to "Give [trainer name] information and advice regarding Pokémon and their training." (Quote from Dexter, Ash's Pokédex from the anime.) Also you missed one, but that's fine since it extremely rare, but it's the Tyger Electronics Generation 2 Deluxe Pokédex (it has a gold casing, and it has every pokemon from generation 1 and 2 not including Celebi, and that means it has Pikachu, Eevee, and Chicorita)

This was agonising. Well done.

Hey patter u should do a what’s up with vid as a throwback

I had that 2000 “Talking” Pokédex as a kid and let me tell you… you won’t get the thing to totally work unless you get a set of the Pokémon figures that were specifically designed to fit on that little protrusion on the top because that’s the only part that actually scans anything. I had Umbreon and Espeon for mine and when I plugged them into the Pokédex on that point, it would play their cries and then proceed to tell me the Pokédex entry information for the Pokémon that was plugged in.

I had the one with the satisfying song by JakksPacific (S tier one). When I saw it in the thumbnail, it was actually what led me to watch your video in the first place. Didn’t realize how many different ones they had created! Great video :)

Now that I’ve seen this video, I’m wondering why there isn’t an actual Pokédex. Imagine what they could do with today’s technology

We all know the best pokédex was the e-reader for the game boy advance

i had the s-tier pokedex as a kid, hearing the song it plays just brought back so many memories of just sifting through it looking at all the pixel art lmao

I had one of the deluxe pokedex's you had at the end and seeing it made me get nostalgic for it.

I got excited when I saw that 2007 pokedex at the end, it was the one I had as a little kid, and I still have it today. I got that thing long before I had a DS, so I have a lot of memories just messing around with it. Thanks for the nostalgia trip, I thought this video was great.

beautiful, thank you for this in-depth review patter, i’ll be taking your opinions to heart and making sure to purchase the correct software

Youve been creating more and im really happy about it

Another great video as always, Platter. It had all the funnies.

This is gonna be good... They always are!

The Pokédex that’s spins also was released in a deluxe edition at EB Games stores in Australia!

Great video as always.

fantastic video as always I don't think there is a bad Peter Knetter video out there

I still remember using the Sinnoh Dex as a kid, playing it's minigames and liking to see the pixel art of the Pokemon art.

"there is no such thing as a normal type pokemon your making sutff up" that got me to burst in laugh ngl

bro the unova pokédex was a CORE PART of my childhood, and I just found it again in the depths of my closet. when you turned it on and the music played, it brought me all the way back 😭 great memories, a simpler time fr

I remember having the Tiger Electronics Pokedex as a kid, it was the only one I had as a kid and loved it! Used to use it when I was watching Pokemon

As a guy wish a piss jar once said: "Professionals have standards."

I still have the one that came out in 1998. I remember getting it and having it with me when I was at a mental hospital at the time.

yoooo pater with the constant uploads lets go!

Thanks u rlly bring happiness and funny ness to me ur my fav RU-vider

His vids are a godsend to everyone and everything on the earth

Ah yes, *yoshi* as a pokemon

The nostalgia, woah. Still have that 1998 Pokédex, never changed the battery, thing just WORKS.

The 2007 one will always be my favorite since it was my first as a kid and the fact that you could actually make it into a DS.

So the rumors were true, Yoshi is a Pokémon!

It my country Pokémon wasn't called Pokémon. It was called evil or sometimes people called it satanic.

0:03 ah yes my favorite Pokémon Yoshi

This is already amazing

The 1998 Tiger Electronics one is pretty good, iirc. I had a friend who owned it and I was psyched to learn it existed In other news, there's a really bad version of I think the Unova Pokédex that I got for Christmas when that was new, and literally all it did was you'd slide the back open, insert a card, close the back, and that was it. I got bored of it after a day

Pokedex has pokemon: A tier Pokedex has LED lights: S tier fair enough Peter XD

this is amazing!

2nd to last one, so nostalgic, I vaguely remember being jealous of a friend who had it. Can't tell you if it was all that great or not, honestly just had nostalgic feels from the moment I saw it.

Funny thing about that intro is that Yoshi WAS actually a pokémon for a day. But probably everyone else knows that

I thought the drink on the side was a candle 😂

Gotta say this is your best intro yet.

This was awesome!!!! If you can find the battery for that one. I wish you would test it because it looked really cool!!!

I'm practically a two year old, so I will be at school. Grown ups have the advantage on that subject.

As a person who knows nothing about Pokémon I am glad to have this guide on which Pokédex is the best

10/10 video would watch again will watch again

I used to have the last one he looked at! And I loved it!

I probably sound like the biggest nerd but over the years I've obtained all of the pokedexes in the thumbnail I used to be obsessed with them 😄

LETS GET READY FOR THE SECOND PREMIRE THAT HE HAS DONE

he is cranking out videos more then I expected

That 🐉 🏀 🃏 scan and intro was great!

love how it plays the valve intro whenever you see the pee jar

I’m split between smiling at his childlike wonder and being frustrated at him not knowing Pokémon, as someone who knows more about Pokémon than a healthy and sane person should.

I had a pokedex as a little kid, the 2003 Advance Pokedex as I recall. Actually a fun one. Had a mini game where you went and caught pokemon on it.

you hoped people got mad? you succeeded. good job. 10/10 video, would probably watch again

So Patter has finally done a tier list, the world is right again. Still where’s the Sonic tier lost

"Now this one's really old, the pokemon were black and white when they came out"

The 2007 Pokedex has a mini game. Aka the maze , there's a mini game to it where team rocket attacks you. I used to own that, and would play the maze mode a lot.

Your pocketgo looks great on a stand. Subscribed.

Pokédex: No Chikorita Jacks pacific: we got you Peter we will include your wife *Chikorita* Peter: All the other Pokédex you go In D and you Jacks Pacific Pokédex go in S

I can already tell the title's wrong because there's the Pokemon Advanced Pokedex from the Ruby & Sapphire era that's not represented here, and actually is on the border of being a Tamagotchi. Yes, someone can yell at me for knowing that and only that now.

i love how peter used a ph scale for the chart

9:28 eevee is a normal type lol

It's still not enough to be the best Pokemon-Trainer!

I like how Peber doesn't know for Ash's Talking Pokedex you need some expensive figures to put on the plastic thing with slots on top. The cards aren't actually needed, just for effect.

i have that first still and i was obsessed with it as a kid

I love that he uses “Hazardous Environments” (Also known as the valve intro theme) on a drink that looks like a jarate, a weapon in TF2, a VALVE game.

"Normal" type just means neutral aka it's what you would expect a regular creature to have defense against because it's normal. I know it's a joke but still i felt like explaining because why not

Wow! Kneader Pedjder is gona catch them all !with his pokey-deck haha funny jowcke cringe

11:11 thats the one i had personaly when i was younger and i rember it being such good quality that when i accidentialy left it out during a rain storm it worked perfectly fine when we brought it back in and both my parents were suprised that it worked because it was a really bad storm and i still have that pokedex today.

im so glad the s tier one is the one i had as a kid!! good to know i grew up with the highest of quality pokedexes
