While Staraptor isn't my favourite of Ash's birds, he has to be the most quickly developping birds. It evolved before the first gym and learned Brave Bird, one of the strongest Flying moves before the third.

I wish he had Pidgeot longer, that probably would’ve been a very strong flying type for him for a long time. That and I just prefer Gen 1 more, I guess lol

@megabladechronicles962 2 года назад

He definitely lost a lot of focus once Gliscor came into the picture since he was more powerful and had a bigger personality, especially in the final battle since Gliscor was the one that defeated the final opponent of Staraptor

@user-ni2bo3mu5p Месяц назад

Yeah unfortunately Staravia just had the worst type matchups, since the other bad matchup, Pikachu, was the ace, and new Iron Tail.

@castform7 2 года назад

I would've loved to see more of Staraptor's goofy side. All of Ash's birds have kinda always fell into the "hardened, serious battler" and that's awesome I love that. But the glimpses of goof we saw in Staravia would've added a nice pinch of extra personality to differentiate him from the rest.

@umeshmakhija5922 2 года назад

Starator and talonflame were good but they can't match the power of Swellow. Swellow took down so many powerful opponents it became one of my favorite mons in Ash's team.

@laxusstrauss5945 2 года назад

Swellow was used on even more battles tho and had an additional arc unlike the other 2 Just look at the league ash even had a full battle against katy which was just a forgettable character And grovyle didn't evolve which makes swellow and corphish his best mons there

@Lonewulf321 2 года назад

I think Ash and Swellow held different roles in battle oddly enough. Swellow was more of a scrappy speedy fighter. While staraptor ended up as a tanky hard hitting power house

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

Very true, Swellow was also a lightning rod lol

@robertbreschard3493 2 года назад

Ash’s lucario

@narxmagee727 2 года назад

It was so cool seeing Staraptor use Close Combat. It lead to some of my favourite moments from the bird like when it first used the move to lay the smack down to Paul's Honchcrow or as a way of getting out of a sticky situation with Paul's Gastrodon.

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

I really dug the unique attacks it had

@robertbreschard3493 2 года назад

Detective pikachu has us make dumb choices as we grow

@thefirespecialist9007 2 года назад

Staraptor would have been a great Pokemon to use against Bea during their Ultra Class Battle. I feel like Staraptor vs Grapploct would have been a highlight, since they both knew Close Combat, and Staraptor's strength to break free of Body Slam could have been done again to get out of Octolock.

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

Most def a great fit

@Isleptwithjesus 2 года назад

Not really

@robertbreschard3493 2 года назад

Make it happen

@RioluLucario1994 10 месяцев назад

Yes, but I feel as if Staraptor would fall into the same pitfall that lost him the match against Drapion, as Grapploct can intercept Staraptor using his tentacles just as Drapion did with his tail.

@beegreen249 2 года назад

Staraptor was really unique back in his day, because it could learn close combat.

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

I like it in the Bidoof video as well

@obsidianfrost9514 2 года назад

0:59 feel like the reason all of his birds are so loyal is that he catches after beating them. So they know he is strong and worth following the manga went into the reason Pokemon obey and basically they will follow at first and either gain or lose loyalty depending on how well you treat and train them

@robertbreschard3493 2 года назад

That’s a great beginning

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

Would be interesting to see a disobedient bird some day

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

Tailow could have been that, but I think his defeat led him to respect Ash

@obsidianfrost9514 2 года назад

@@ProfessorAlexSilver most likely. Pokemon can at any point decide to leave their trainers. We saw Pikachu almost do that in the beginning. And we've seen some cases of it briefly explored with chimchar Charmander and tepig. Even though they were registered to a different PokeBall they still went to ash. I don't think the anime will go into it much though since it's basically promotions for the game and the manga gets pretty dark

@c.j.9536 2 года назад

Ya know with a fighting type move like close combat I guess you could say he’s a STAR against rock,steel,dark and ice

@matthewkuscienko4616 2 года назад

I've always personally loved the fact that Staraptor could learn close combat, not just for the great and highly useful type coverage it provides, but also for the fact that it's not a move you typically see bird Pokemon being able to use often, making it feel more unique because of this

@albinozoidberg3382 2 года назад

@@comics4556 HAHAHAHA you clearly are being a troll cause A. Swellow came first, B. Staraptor doesn't even have anything going for it and C. Staraptor's PokeRinger battle against Paul is the exact same when Swellow did his, literally won the same way as Swellow by using its wing to hit the ring into the goal, talk about a cheap knock off. Everyone's thing with Staraptor is "oh it has a better moveset". Movesets don't matter in the anime, look at freaking Greninja's moveset, Water Shuriken, Aerial Ace, Cut and Double Team. In the game, all of those moves are under 60 power, but does that matter in the anime? No cause moves aren't defined by power, just how well they are used. Educate yourself before making a arguement you can't win

Staraptor is my favourite Pokemon of all time in the games (did you tell from my profile picture?😂), my first game was diamond and I had a staraptor which I over levelled (as you do with your first game 😂) and beat the game with it essentially solo, fly spam. I consider it my starter bc I have fonder memories of it than any of the sinnoh starters. It was tough but I’ll never forget when I beat Cynthia with it. Such an awesome, badass Pokemon with such sentimental value to me. I use one whenever I can and recently had one in my SP and PLA teams. Also had one on my platinum, soul silver, white 2 and Y teams. If it ever received a regional variant I think I’ll collapse. 😂

@Gigabowser20 2 года назад

I never really realized staraptors role in Paula story, that’s actually pretty cool and a nice connection! I agree staraptor could’ve used a little more development but I still think it was one of ash’s best sinnoh Pokémon. I wonder which of ash’s birds are the strongest?

@Lonewulf321 2 года назад

It depends on what you think “strongest” Jack of all trades? Probably Swellow. Sheer power: probably staraptor or Hawlucha Cleverness and intelligence: noctowl. Speed: probably Swellow talonflame or Pidgeot? Luck: Rowlet 🥴

I love how much of an impact Paul had on Ash's team. he's vital to Torterra, Infernape, Staraptor & Gliscor's storyline. He also has a big impact on Buizel, but not as memorable (beating him with ursaring and chastisting Ash for entering the Wallace Cup)

@matthewkuscienko4616 2 года назад

I have always been a fan of the Starly evolutionary family, as Starly, I think it's one of the cuter bird Pokemon out there, and Staraptor is quite a powerhouse as well. I always use one on my in-game team in gen4 and it's remakes, both for being able to be added to my team extremely early on, as well as because it's a legitimately good Pokemon for most of the game, especially after it fully evolves. Having said that, and Ash's Staraptor is definitely one of the more interesting birds he caught, and I would even go as far as to say it's my favorite one he owned, though I will admit I might be a little bit biased due to him having many of my favorites from gen4 on his team

@thecriticalghost4626 2 года назад

Nic vid, Staraptor is so cool, even if he is not the best bird, his unique moveset and goofy personality made him likeable btw i think you forgot about the Swablu, Fearow and Skarmory he beated, since you counted Honchkrow and it was the same type of battle (pokeringer)

@ProfessorAlexSilver 2 года назад

I only counted Honchrow since we didn't get enough footage from those battles to make it feel like a battle win imo. The one with Honchrkrow was really fleshed out

@robertbreschard3493 2 года назад

@garchompgamer1874 Год назад

Im not even that into Pokemon, anime, games and what not. But I do enjoy the story of Ash's Pokemon, it's cool to revisit something you loved as a kid :)

@ProfessorAlexSilver Год назад

Honestly, I'm all about it for the storylines themselves. I like the episodes, but I think it's fun to break down (what can potentially be hundreds of appearances) into a succinct storyline that cuts out everything but the meat. I used to read Wikipedia all the time when younger for the same reason

@Druwuwho1337 Год назад

@@ProfessorAlexSilver Yeah I agree. It is nice to see what happend to a character you really cared for as a kid. Like even as an adult they have a small spot in your nostalgic heart. Oh man, I used to do the same with Warcraft lore when I was younger. Spending hours on the wiki to learn all the small juicy details. Sadly I no longer care for Warcraft, since the lore I used to love got changed, for something worse imo.
