It's a battle of the cute streamers here in Korone's playthrough of Pokemon Scarlet. Source: 【まだまだ初心者】ポケットモンスター スカーレットやる…！【ポケモンSV】 • 【まだまだ初心者】ポケットモンスター スカー...
I love how she was saying how over-leveled she was for this gym, but as soon as chat started cheering for Iono she pivoted to, "Oh, but I forget my type match-ups, I might lose, cheer for me chat!" 😂
I'm amazed Korone never commented on how Iono says her viewer's eyeballs are hers, similar to how Korone takes viewer's fingers. Regardless, great clip, Korone is a source of joy always.
I was wondering how some HoloMems would react to this fight, and Ko'one didn't disappoint. One thing I will give Game Freak, they absolutely nailed a lot of the characters in Scarlet/Violet, especially the gym leaders. The fact that they have someone drop a "dono" in the middle of this gym leader fight, and the gym leader stop mid-speech to thank them, shows that they understand the concept of "streamer" beyond just having them be genki and say "please like and subscribe".
Actually that is wrong. Every streamer I have watched found Iono cringe and said the streaming world was absolutely not like that. They said it was similar to "vtuber culture" which is totally different from "streaming culture"
@@kasaix_yt "Actually that's wrong because my experience is different from the rest" Like granted, I haven't seen that much people play the game since I want to experience most of it myself, but the few I've seen say they nailed Iono as a streamer.
Yup when she was revealed many people initially thought Iono was a Vtuber and Penny was the person under the model.. and then a snippet of the gym battle was shown and threw people off with her being "real"
@@BaconNuke Considering the bits and pieces I know about Penny, I think she'd loathe the idea of doing a cutesy act for even just a moment if she were a streamer, whether flesh or VTuber, not because she hates acting, but because it's beyond her acting range.
@@BaconNuke Aww, that would actually be pretty cute to have a shy girl with a hyperactive digital avatar whose insecure in real life type of character, but for Pokemon. XD I feel like I've seen this kind of thing before already, but I can't remember where, but yeah, if Penny and Iono were connected, that would be really interesting. :p
Game Freak should just really go all in and have Iono do some actual streamer cameos and short cute sketches and clips of what goes on in her gym. I would certainly watch it 😆
Could you imagine her doing a series of Gym visits to check out the places and their Leaders like some kind of student guide? It'd be hilarious seeing Larry deal with Iono.
Disobedience: allow me to introduce myself Disobeying pokemon when not having enough badges becomes more common on this game since it can happen unintended (in previous game, Gym Leaders act as roadblock so you have to either grind really hard or trade to do that)
@@odakidakida9193 Yeah I find the choice to do the whole 'you can do what you want, go where you want, engage the gyms in any order' and then proceed to *still* link the gyms to the badges needed to get pokemon to obey you AND have nothing else scale with level...which is how it should work in this type of game. So basically whilst you CAN complete everything else without doing the gyms (RT gaming proved that it's possible) and doing all the side quests whilst having pokemon who disobey you constantly, it's in no way a smooth experience. It's like they *know* about western style open world games but don't get *get* how they work.
@@luketfer OK, first of all: obedience is only tied to the level you captured the pokemon, you can level a pokemon caught at low level to 100 and it will still obey you even with no gym badges. Second: I will never understand why would you want the game to scale, what is the point of grinding, one of the most crucial parts of any rpg, if everything gonna be scaled to you? I am gonna be frank, scaling in an rpg, even more a turn based rpg is just dumb and kills the point of the game having a leveling. Why level your pokemon if you gonna have the same challenge doing it at lvl 20 or lvl 90?
As soon as she said “your eyeballs are mine” I started wondering if they took inspiration from Korone. You can’t have her, Pokemon! She’s the Sonic ambassador!
Fun fact about Iono's city: Its Japanese name Hakkō City refers to fermentation. This is confirmed through Levincia (coming from levadura; Spanish for yeast) and its German name Fermanca City (from the Spanish word fermentar). Its IRL counterpart is Valencia. Which comes from the Latin name giving by the Romans, Valentia, meaning valor. The founding of what was then Valentia in the 2nd century BC was due to the settling of the Roman soldiers who fought against a Lusitanian rebel, Viriatus, during the Lusitanian War.
Love the part where Korone tries to copy the crowd's "Woah!" during the terastallize finale. I know Galar did that crowd part of the Gym theme first and the Paldean battles aren't in stadiums, I like the Paldea version more because it actually makes the battle more thrilling. And the dialogue they did for Iono of shamelessly hoping to go viral is perfect, they absolutely nailed the streamer role. The Paldea Gym leader lineup is the chef's kiss
The first time I saw this part of the game, Iono instantly became my favorite Pokemon Gym Leader of all time lol. A Gym Leader who also does livestreams. How cool is that!?
Iono is memorable to me because I somewhat accidentally fought her first, so being a few levels under her really helped feel like I had a challenge to overcome
Yeah, I don't know about my number 1, but she's definitely ranked high and memorable enough for me too, she's a really cute parody character. XD You know, back in the day with the likes of Kanto and Johto, I think I always liked whoever the 6th Gym Leader was, the mysterious Sabrina and the cute but tough Jasmine or whatever, those two were somewhat interesting to me and I still like them a fair bit. :p
@@BaconNuke Wow, you can fight them out of order? ^^; But... the mapping, I'd figure it would be easy to figure out what order it's supposed to be set up in, I think... :? And I'm guessing you might not have had a lot of type advtange skills against her? :? Sounds like you lucked out. ^^; I always wondered about that, low level or type disadvantage or even just neural battles compared to being on par or with type advantages on people, making things easy... :p (Not sure about other crazy competitive fan stuff like Nuzlocke runs though, I don't get that right now. :p). Sigh... I did that one some of my last playthroughs of being able to play Mega Man 8 again somehow, going with my usual order where the next boss would be weak to the skill I just learned from the previous boss, like Bomb Man to Frost Man or whatever, but than... never using it unless I had to. :p And it was really fun and not too hard at all until Search Man who was challenging but fair, and than... I cheated for Astro Man though and used the missiles, I hate him and the Dr. Wily Stage 1 penguin thing, LOL. XD Most of the game is pretty easy though... :p Although I think... Dr. Wily himself is admittedly hard because he has two forms and stuff and therefor like twice as much health as you, among other things. :? Takes a while, but I do usually beat this MM at least. :p Sigh... yeah, challenges, huh. :? Fun stuff, but I only ever got around to so many to do, but oh well I guess. :p
Gamefreak gotta make a vtuber channel for Iono now if they haven't already. she'd POP OFF big and Korone might get mad jealous when she sees a lot of her chat migrate over there
That will be another level of Alabama. After people considerate La+ to be Shion and Gura's child. Probably Iono is Gura and Shion 2nd child. I mean... LOOK AT HER!!!! She is literally both.
I remember folks mistaking Iono for a VTuber rather than recognizing her as a flesh streamer. But if there's someone we can expect to be a VTuber, it would be Penny, who'd probably be one of those reformed but still unhinged textboard/imageboard legends as well. Making that funnier to me is how Penny's Japanese name is Botan.
@@Tom-101 Thinking about it that way, I imagine her being an icon in her world for making VTuber fashion that works IRL as well, with her teeth being something she used to hate because of bullying. XD
Lmaoooo, I was waiting till someone like Korone would encounter Iono but to see her chat simp & cheer for Iono over Korone in their gym battle *is beautiful.*
Glad to see that Korone also enjoys the crowd cheering with the battle music~ It's pure hype! I'll never understand why I keep seeing people say that they hate it.
Nintendo is missing out on a great advertising opportunity, they should make a channel for Iono and animate little clips for it, they don't have to be long, they could even be shorts, it would be hilarious.
Asymmetrical clothing: most of Hololive XL sweater with long sleeves: Gura and Laplus bright colors: Baelz Serrated teeth: Gura and Baelz as a bonus: the trailers show her voiced in Japanese even the english ones have her subbed instead. She may be a physical streamer in Paldea but we know what she's based on just GF poking fun at vtubers
I’m kinda sad Korone just one shot everything, Iono’s mismagius is a menace if you’re around the same level, electric typing with levitate, no weaknesses
