I kinda saw it coming with his choices of dialog in earlier scenes... after I was banished from the villiage, he seemed a little TOO willing to help. I saw the betrayal coming with about 70% certainty but the battle music as well as the title "Pokemon Wielder" sent a chill down my spine
I saved you... After putting into action the sequence of events that caused you to be sent back through time and space never to see your friends and family again.
_"I saved you, just so I could obliterate you on this very peak itself. I only made it look like I wanted to give you a place to stay back then, just so I could have you close to me because I knew you would fall for my trap. So when you were gone, I could finally get that stupid space Llama's respect that I DESERVE!_ 'chuckles a maniacal laughter' _After all, as the saying goes "Keep your friends close, but your enemies much, MUCH closer"_ Volo in a nutshell.
@@kyuriht God itself spoke to us and never bore any mention to the possibility of return. That being said it is odd there was no subplot or even mention of where we supposedly came from.
@@ATigerShark but at the same time the player character never really asks like they don't care, I too expected at least a sub plot So they either died and got isekaid like in anime or didn't care about home
Volo casually pulls out Cynthia’s team in a game with negative difficulty. And also a two stage boss battle as his surprise, there is no such thing as the 6 Pokémon rule in the past.
Me after beating Giratina: "Phew! It's over! Get OUTTA here Giratina! Giratina's Origin form: *h a i* Me and my Luxray, who's literally the only one on my team who survived: *AAAAAAAAAAA*
Volo: "Why? WHY do you have the blessing of Arceus?!" Me: "Clearly, I didn't use the goddamn devil to reach him." Volo: *"Listen here you little shit-"*
When you think about it, Volo is the pokemon equivalent to Father Pucci from JoJo, especially with Volo's scheme being sort of similar to the heaven plan.
@FrostKitsune Live Come on, you know I'm right. Just wait until I start comparing some of the pokemon themselves to some stands or characters. Gardevoir also functions similar to Golden Experience Requiem with the lore intention of protecting the user, and in the case of Gardevoir, they banish the attacker into a black hole. Then you've got Hoopa, who is just D4C, given the desire to travel between worlds. Arceus and Made in Heaven? They're both equally terrifying in terms of power and with handling the universe. Ffs, they both manipulate time.
hardest boss fight ever that i had to cheese with a lot of fairy types. Mainly blissy and togekiss. Having to fight 8 pokemon with no breaks actually screwed me for the first few times I attempted with just my normal playthrough team. maybe the first phase of giratina was obviously but the second phase actually meant business and destroyed so many people lol
I feel like Jamie Campbell Bower (the person speaking Volo's line in this edit) could actually be a pretty good Volo if there was ever a movie adaptation of this game.
The fight was so insanely hard I loved it. I thought something was weird with Volo because he had pokemon even though he was just a merchant. Turns out he’s evil
Volo: “WHY! Why do you have the blessing of arceus? It’s almost like you were dropped from the sky to get in my way!” Me: “I guess it’s true what they say about pokemon looking like there trainers.” Volo: “What” Me: “Sorry, Giritina looks MUCH better” Volo: “Fuck getting these plates. Listen here you little shit-“
I still can't believe my favorite character in the game is the actual villain just really 🥲 so this means his going to be one of my villain favorite character fine bye me 🤗
I never trusted Volo from the start. His betrayal was what I expected from him. There was just *something* about him that made me distrust him from the start. Even after helping after everyone else turned their backs on the MC for somehow being “at fault” for turning the sky funky. (I literally wrote in my notes app “I don’t trust Volo” just so I would forget his name lol)
What I hate more than anything is we don't hear from him again after everything. It's implied that he went back to his home planet, where he was needed, but died on his way.
@@somedude7989 Yes, you're a human turned Pokémon in Legends Arceus, more specifically, you're either Rowlet, Cyndaquil or Oshawott, and because you're a Pokémon, you can get attacked by other Pokémon, and it's all from official sources.
I genuinely cried when Volo told us that he was the one who unleashed Giratina on the world to create the space-time rift. He helped us to understand the world, saved us when we would have died out in the wilds alone, and even led us to the Red Chain himself. Only for him to then tell us that his entire plan was to get *you* to gather the plates for him so *he* could take them from you and remake the world in his own design. I’ve never gone from loving a character so much, to hating them so fast.
Basically, for people who don’t know, volo was using Giratina Because he thought, if he created enough chaos, it would make RCS ascend down from the heavens so that would give him the time to catch him
If there was ever a movie adaptation of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Jamie would be perfect as Volo just for the way he can flip between kind and soft-spoken to evil and deranged in a second.
If I had a nickel for everytime my favorite characters start out nice and bubbly and then go completely insane, I would have two nickels. It's even funnier when my alpha hisuian zoruark was named Nagito after the first character to pull that on me. I am willing to be on the dark side.
It took me 4 battles to finally win, and when it was finally over I truly said "Artoryas (my alpha lucario), Close Combat on him, make him fall of this mountain". We all felt betrayed by this guy, however, this is the best villain I've ever seen in a pokémon game, and the battle being a 6 v 8, it gives a feeling of injustice, which makes it even better. Overall, 11/10 for this guy
*punches a wall* I should have trusted my gut and friends when they said not to trust you volo... Dammit! I will not be fooled again! No matter how many times it must be! I will take you down! Once and for all! I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!
@@candyneige6609 No, you don't even play as a Pokémon. Actually play the game and watch people playing it. If you could play as a Pokémon, you wouldn't see the rival 💀💀
one of the betrayals that hurt the most for me, i actually saw volo as the helping hand of the game, turns out he was the reason for why you were there in the first place
He spent his whole life to try and witness arceus, yet all his efforts were in vain. (Mostly because he opened the space time rift, leading to frenzied nobles and summoned giratina)
Swordbert and shieldber are worse lmao Volo’s ain’t great but it being based of Arceus does give it some points for me. Although I won’t lie, Manbun Volo looks neat as hell too
As a hisuin typhlosion enjoyer, I can confirm our Typhlosions enjoy edibles, Typhlosion would never look stressed, not even the pokemon satan could make them discomforted, they would just keep enjoying their edibles
"You tricked me." "Tricked you? No, I saved you." *Giving you shelter when the world turns on you* *Helping you along your journey* *Being a genuinely likable character* *Helping you gather the plates* *Giving you tips on survival in a foreign region* *Acting like a friend when no one else was* *Only to stab you in the back when you trusted him most*
This game made me add goodra to my team because after losing to Volo like 4 times I was like "GODDAMMIT what other pokemon can I use" then I remembered having trouble catching hisuian goodra because of its shelter ability and its power I used him and won. I later went and caught a goodra in sw/sh.
You know what would be extra terrifying? If after losing to Giratina, it remained in the overworld and actively attacked you while you were trying to leave the summit.
I wish that Volo offered us to join him in his ‘new world’ tbh. He seemed to care so much. He was like ‘yo cool giratina statue right? Meet me at spear pillar. AHAHAH EVIL GIVE ME THE PLATES OH EVEN THO YOU SAID NOTHING I WILL BATTLE YOU’ I need to create a story hold up real quick- Mini story where he invites you because I’m running on how amazing this is because I faced this today- You walk up to spear pillar. Volo is waiting for you. You walk up to him. I’m not gonna use actual dialogue bc why would I google it for a short story ‘Yada yada arceus plates. Now, you have all 17. You may wonder where the last one is. I have it. Now we are going to make a deal.’ (Steps closer) ‘you are either going to give me that plate, and we shall recreate the world in our image together, or I will take them by force. I like you (character name). I hope you know the decision to make. (You choose to join him, and give him the 17 plates) ‘great choice. Glad we didn’t have to fight. (Smirk) ‘however…. Are you worthy? (Insane smile, goes into boss battle outfit) (You beat him) ‘Oh you really are naive. You really thought I would let you rule the world and be stronger than me in my new utopia? You really are dumb!’ ‘Giratina, deal with her as I make the new world.’ (This goes two ways, if you don’t defeat giratina you fade and watch all of hisui die, if you manage to defeat giratina you stop him from creating the new world because something abt a paradox) Anyways so sorry if you think this is cringe I always try my best to not be like those weird cringe people on the internet with stories so I’m very sorry if this is cringe- I’m running on tired energy and am barely able to form a coherent thought
