Hope everyone enjoys this! I think I'm about ready to start postting every week again. I should have videos for at least the next three weeks, and am hoping to keep the momentum going thereafter. If you have any suggestions for unique video topics or historys that you want me tackle, lmk! I've got a lot of unique history ideas coming up which will be more experimental :)
Leavanny (like most of Ash's Unova Pokemon that weren't starters or Pikachu) suffered greatly from there being way too many members on the team and he was constantly fighting for the two leftover spots not taken up by the 4 Pokemon I mentioned. He had a really fun battle style I especially with the use of String shot and I would've liked to see more of it but alas it's appearances were few and far between.
Leavanny suffered a fate similar to Ash’s other unova reserves that it had lots of potential that was wasted due to lack of appearances but I think Leavanny showed the most promise out of all of them. I love seeing it grow and mature. It took me back to caterpie/butterfree.
One of Ashs most underrated mons. Great personality, strong battler, excellent focus eps. In a way he reminds me of kingler, a reserve who quickly became an Ace up Ashs sleeve
Honestly Leavanny I've always really liked it. Back when Black, and White first came out I remember while I was in middle school a lot of my Male Classmate were making fun of me for having such a "Girly" Pokemon on my team/liking such a "Girly" Pokemon. Then next week I swept their whole Team with Leavanny, I founded out years later that Leavanny has perfect Atk, and Spd IVs, then it's Atk, and Spd EVs were Maxed out. And it had Sword Dances, Honestly I still thinks it's amazing that it learns Sword Dance from Level Up. It's like Game Freaks way of rewarding the Player for sticking with it.
This is the reason why I always find and get Leavanny (Sewaddle) for my team up until post game if it's available in game. It's so underrated. I wish the Sewaddle line makes a comeback in Gen 9 DLCs.
Likewise, I love String Shot in the show. It's one of the coolest moves, due to its Spiderman-like use imo. I've thought about doing a whole video on String Shot, but I'm worried noone will want to watch itt haha
Great Video Professor. I really do feel like Levanny was probably one of Ash's strongest members of his Unova team, next to Krookodile and Pignite. Really felt it needed more screen time and it could've been used in more Gym battles. Mainly against Clay and Elesa.
Swaddle likely didn’t trust ash because he viewed ash trying to befriend it an attempt to catch him thus sewaddle remained distant until ash showed he truely cared for it and not just wanting it to be another member of his team.
By far Ash's most underrated Pokemon (and you can quote me on that!). Whenever people talk about the Unova team, it's always "Krookodile and his band of merry morons" (for understandable reasons, even if I don't fully agree), but Leavanny should also be an exception. The Stephan battle was the only time he didn't get a win in a battle, which is almost unheard of from Ash's 'mons!
I can picture it facing off against a Kricketune. When it returned in Journey's, I was hoping it would've learned Signal Beam. Can you do Ash's Noivern next please?
I remember really likeing ash's leavanny as a kid and i think he's why i have such a soft spot for that evo line, he was group dad of the team which was so wholesome and him making hoods for other pokemon is a cherry on top it's so sweet.
i just realised, you missed leaf storm on the moveset section of the video, you probably didn't see but when ash's masters 8 team was training with his old pokemon, leavanny can be seen with ash's pokemon using leaf storm, it was quite a surprise but ill accept it anyway
I actually like Ash's Leavanny. It was his first (and only) bug type since Heracross in the original series, if the Beedrill he caught doesn't count. Unfortunately, he did get the "Unova Treatment", and got sent to the lab quite often, just due to the sheer number of mons Ash caught in Unova. It's quite a shame, because if we had a team like Palpitoad (who could've potentially evolved into Seismitoad), Krookodile, and Leavanny, Ash's team could've been in real powerful standing.
Leavanny (Hahakomori) was one of the few pokemon I like in Unova. He had a lot of potential and yeah he suffered a lot like other Ash's pokemon in Unova
I love leavanny one of my favorite grass type Pokémon. Leavanny is a sweetheart and especially watching over Rowlet while he sleeps and holding him like a baby. Keep up the success on your channel Professor.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver i can see why also no offence but leavanny's voice isn't that bad, perhaps it leavanny spent more time on ash's team it would of helped you get used to it
Leavanny didn’t appear or battle as much as he should’ve or showed how its personality really progressed. I hope we get to see it again or maybe Burgh to show off his own.
I've almost forgot about Leavanny's pre-evolved era but that's because I was in and out with the BW anime, but after a little rewatch i love the guy and his fight with Stephany I mean Stephan 😅 was a good show although it sadly lost. 6:47 oof poor Leavs gonna need a burn heal for that. It's good to have you back after a little break Professor.
Leavanny is a underrated pokemon of Ash ! It's sad that most of the fan forget that this pokemon was actually good in battle ! And it's personnality was also so sweet too ! 🍃
My issue with Leavanny is that I love the visuals/battles, but really, really, really dislike the voice haha. Overall, though, making this video made me appreciate the character way more than I did before. I really like its storyline and bond with Ash
Such an underrated king this amazing bug is 🫡 Always wished he got more screen time (esp. as a Swaddle and Swadloon) - imagine the lil’ dude had a a slight rebellious phase as a Swaddle, an edgy teen phase as a Swadloon and maturing as time went on alongside perfecting his sewing skills after helping w/ Luke’s film, and having an episode dedicated to Ash and Swadloon bonding, evolving, and then we see more of Leavanny’s growth in the Durant episode.
One thing I like about Leavanny is it acted like a loving and caring mother no matter what it has been through, it will still be there to help those pokemon
I always loved leavanny even though its appearance are very scarce and far between. Something about that pokemon (maybe its fabulous design) made me adore it even before it being very motherly. I'm shocked to find out that leavanny was a male.
I think Ash’s Leavanny was cool and it is his only Bug type that won a Gym battle and it seams that the Anime had finally figured out to handle Ash’s Bugs types as Butterfree did not her significant before it left and Heracross was left at The Lab for. The majority of Ash’s Johto Journey and only did something at the league and from being brought back in The Battle Frontier and The Sinnoh League and I wish Ash got more bug types to make his later teams more diverse than just prepetting Types like Snom as it evolved into Frosmoth from Friendship making it a good pick for Ash’s and do Snivy next.
I love leavanny as a Pokémon I even used on on my own team playing Pokémon black since I didn’t pick snivy as my starter leavanny was my go to grass type Pokémon in the black and white games. Also ashs leavanny deserved more time to shine but the writters thought it was easier to work with snivy mainly for her personality and leavanny was stuck in snivys shadow for most of unova.
I was genuinely going to ask the same thing to be honest because I’m very neutral on the voice because I wished they changed like some mentioned, it doesn’t really bother me whatsoever. Unova has always been my least favorite region to this day but at least I appreciate of what it had to offer in terms of the aesthetics. Not to mention that Leavanny has been one of Ash’s underrated and under appreciated Pokémon yet its definitely one of my favorite Pokémon from Generation 5.
Dang, I knew keavanny didn't appear super often but I thought he had more battles than that! To bad we didn't see more because he was fun to watch, all his battles were cool and the personality was good (agree on the voice though!)
Funny enough, I actually went through playing Pokemon White/White 2 with a Leavanny on my team. And I've been using a bug type on my teams in games ever since.
professor silver ash pikachu Will it come in a renewed version? There are so many things in the video that are very old, but it is not very good to stay in the old, if you are thinking of doing it, can you do it, of course, it will take too long and it will be difficult 25 seasons will be difficult if you are already planning to do it
Ash's second best Unovan mon... yeah... you heard me. Krookodile reigns supreme but man does that Bug Grass get better treatment than... Snivy. I'm so depressed by this. Sewaddle feels like they needed some more episodes with Scraggy due to how similar they were at first (though not much episodes were given out due to the switching party motive for Gen 5).

Team Rocket Ultimate Team
Goh's Ultimate Team
Ash's Alternative Galar Team if Journey was instead Sword and Shield.
That video is awesome, can you do Hawlucha next please, I love that guy.
Ash's Bayleef or Hawlucha
This guy went through a lot in terms of strength and personality. Definitely one of Ash’a most underrated and under appreciated Pokemon.
Much agreed!
i remember being angry he was male
now
he's my idol
It's not underrated you got a lot of credit could it train did a little bit more
Leavanny (like most of Ash's Unova Pokemon that weren't starters or Pikachu) suffered greatly from there being way too many members on the team and he was constantly fighting for the two leftover spots not taken up by the 4 Pokemon I mentioned. He had a really fun battle style I especially with the use of String shot and I would've liked to see more of it but alas it's appearances were few and far between.
Most def, but at least Leavanny did more than Palpitoad & Boldore haha
While not Ash’s most memorable Pokémon, you have to admire his caretaking personality. I really like the way it cared for Rowlet.
Leavanny suffered a fate similar to Ash’s other unova reserves that it had lots of potential that was wasted due to lack of appearances but I think Leavanny showed the most promise out of all of them. I love seeing it grow and mature. It took me back to caterpie/butterfree.
Very similar fate :/ At least it got some dope battles
They did their best with what they had to work with
What screentime they got was good ones
@@madnessarcade7447 that’s why I said leavanny shone the most
@@bige81892fair point
It was nice that Leavanny was actually a strong battler; he just lacked focus
Ash’s Unova era isn’t remembered fondly, but Leavanny is easily one of the best Pokémon he had. It’s all personality for me.
Also one of the rare bug types that Misty wasn’t afraid of
Ah, good point!
String Shot really pushed Ash's creativity.
It's always been one of my favorite moves since Caterpie used it
It’s almost like a predecessor to what Electro Web would be later
@@itsturniptime3699
Foreshadowing perhaps? Idk
One of Ashs most underrated mons. Great personality, strong battler, excellent focus eps. In a way he reminds me of kingler, a reserve who quickly became an Ace up Ashs sleeve
Absolutely love the 1st episode of Ash's Sewaddle's appearance, I really think it was very cute.❤
Same here - I liked that he felt totally unqiue from Caterpie. It wasn't a retread
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Yup totally 💯💯💯
I just love how Leavanny acts like a mother to other Pokemon
Likewise! It really matured throughout the series
More like Grandmother
Leavanny is a Male
A very motherly father*
Ash's Leavanny has to be my favorite member of his gen 5 team 💚
Great choice :)
Loved how Leavanny made leaf clothes for all of them! Was so adorable!
I loved seeing Leavanny again during Misty’s return episode. He got a conclusion to his story, something not all of Ash’s pokemon got!
Ash's Leavanny proved that Bug Types are strong too.
Honestly Leavanny I've always really liked it. Back when Black, and White first came out I remember while I was in middle school a lot of my Male Classmate were making fun of me for having such a "Girly" Pokemon on my team/liking such a "Girly" Pokemon.

I wish String Shot was as cool and useful in the games as it is in the anime.
Likewise, I love String Shot in the show. It's one of the coolest moves, due to its Spiderman-like use imo. I've thought about doing a whole video on String Shot, but I'm worried noone will want to watch itt haha

Hmmm, I'm not quite sure which of his Pokemon I would consider the most underrated, there is a lot of competition in that regard haha
Leavanny is one of my favorite bug type Pokémon!
I can picture it facing off against a Kricketune. When it returned in Journey's, I was hoping it would've learned Signal Beam. Can you do Ash's Noivern next please?
Thatt'd be a sick battle. I'd be down for Signal Beam as well. Noivern is high on the list, but I'm going to cover a rival mon next week
Leavanny is a pretty solid Pokémon, especially by Unova standards.
I remember really likeing ash's leavanny as a kid and i think he's why i have such a soft spot for that evo line, he was group dad of the team which was so wholesome and him making hoods for other pokemon is a cherry on top it's so sweet.

Heracross too :)
@@ProfessorAlexSilver You sure are right. Dunno how I forgot about Heracross.
You finally did it!
Enjoy :)
I loved how he used his swarm ability
Literally searched this up yesterday to see if it happened 😂
Leavanny is my all time favorite Bug type, if not then it's second. Such a cute Pokémon.
Nice use of Future Sight XD
1 of Coolest Pokemon
Specially the way he dodged sawk punches while dancing is most epic
When I journeyed in unova I also had a leavanny all the way to my final team, leavanny was such a good bug pokemon 🥰
I love to say I'm officially a Leavanny Pokemon fan, appearance of the strength and abilities like to me as never seen before. 😊
Leavanny (Hahakomori) was one of the few pokemon I like in Unova. He had a lot of potential and yeah he suffered a lot like other Ash's pokemon in Unova
I love leavanny one of my favorite grass type Pokémon. Leavanny is a sweetheart and especially watching over Rowlet while he sleeps and holding him like a baby. Keep up the success on your channel Professor.
wow, didn't think you'd do this one, nice job
Thanks! I'm hoping to cover a lot more obscure Pokemon. Those are always fun for me to break down
@@ProfessorAlexSilver i can see why
also no offence but leavanny's voice isn't that bad, perhaps it leavanny spent more time on ash's team it would of helped you get used to it
I love leavanny since i first watched him when im 11 y/o. I really love his design and personality 😭💚
Another excellent video
I’m hoping to see James Weezing and Jessie’s Arbok
leavanny is honestly my favourite grass type Pokemon it's really underrated 🌟❤
All that’s left is Pignite, Snivy, Scraggy and Unfezant, and that’s Ash’s Unova Pokemon done. Oh and Pikachu in Unova too
I'm leaning towardsa Pignite or Scraggy for the next Unova mon :)
Leavanny didn’t appear or battle as much as he should’ve or showed how its personality really progressed. I hope we get to see it again or maybe Burgh to show off his own.
I loved leavanny and deemed her my fav very quickly
Welcome back took u long enough
I've almost forgot about Leavanny's pre-evolved era but that's because I was in and out with the BW anime, but after a little rewatch i love the guy and his fight with Stephany I mean Stephan 😅 was a good show although it sadly lost.
6:47 oof poor Leavs gonna need a burn heal for that.
It's good to have you back after a little break Professor.
Hoping to get back into the swing of weekly posting :) Wish me luck haha
Professor Silver we miss your classes
I'm hoping to start posting again soon! Things have been quite busy the past year, but I think I'm back on track :)
@@ProfessorAlexSilverThank you professor. Love your Pokemon history videos ❤
Great class professor besides my chorus classes through out school this is my favorite subject
I always get so excited when I see you post. Love watching your videos keep it up!
Thanks! Hoping to start posting again more often :)
As a kid he was my favourite Pokemon from Ash's Unova team
I have been waiting for this for a long time! ❤
Hope it was worth the wait!

I keep forgetting that Ash's Leavanny is a boy, I keep thinking it's a girl.
Leavanny appearing again in Aim To Be A Pokémon Master was nice to see where Misty was not afraid
Leavanny, An Underrated Ash Mon🍃🪲
It's why He's MY #2 Fave Bug-type Ash Mon AND #6 Fave Unova Ash Mon
Loosk like Leavanny has some tough competition :)
One thing I like about Leavanny is it acted like a loving and caring mother no matter what it has been through, it will still be there to help those pokemon
True true!
@@ProfessorAlexSilver yush 👍
Also cool information prof

2:24 Imagine that for Ash’s Servine, and Dartrix
Happy Labor Day Professor Silver!
Professor YOU'RE BACK!
After so many months! Which was 2.
I'm hoping to start posting every Saturday. I have a few videos in the works so I should at least be on track for September :)
Thanks
Thank you for comeback professor ❤️
Ash’s most underrated Pokémon by FAR!
leavanny is my hero
even since first gave it a try
i fell in love
i would die for this pokemon
This is the reason the sewaddle line is my favorite
Hope I did him justice :)
I think Ash’s Leavanny was cool and it is his only Bug type that won a Gym battle and it seams that the Anime had finally figured out to handle Ash’s Bugs types as Butterfree did not her significant before it left and Heracross was left at The Lab for. The majority of Ash’s Johto Journey and only did something at the league and from being brought back in The Battle Frontier and The Sinnoh League and I wish Ash got more bug types to make his later teams more diverse than just prepetting Types like Snom as it evolved into Frosmoth from Friendship making it a good pick for Ash’s and do Snivy next.
I just noticed that EVERY one of Leavanny's wins were against Pokemon it had a type disadvantage to
Who was Ash's Best Pokémon in Unova?
Hmm, strength-wise it's Krookodile, personality-wise it's Oshawott
I love Leavanny witch great passion. I think that if it wern't from him spamming X-sissor he could have won against Sawk.
I love leavanny as a Pokémon I even used on on my own team playing Pokémon black since I didn’t pick snivy as my starter leavanny was my go to grass type Pokémon in the black and white games. Also ashs leavanny deserved more time to shine but the writters thought it was easier to work with snivy mainly for her personality and leavanny was stuck in snivys shadow for most of unova.
Great choice for a grass type :-)
Thanks for the video Professor Alex ❤
My pleasure!
Question 🙋♀️ please 🙏, why didn’t you like 👍 Leavanny’s voice Professor?
I was genuinely going to ask the same thing to be honest because I’m very neutral on the voice because I wished they changed like some mentioned, it doesn’t really bother me whatsoever.
Unova has always been my least favorite region to this day but at least I appreciate of what it had to offer in terms of the aesthetics.
Not to mention that Leavanny has been one of Ash’s underrated and under appreciated Pokémon yet its definitely one of my favorite Pokémon from Generation 5.
Levvanny is one of ashs most underrated pokemon
His most underrated Pokémon imo
Finally a new episode
More to come soon, I promise :)
@@ProfessorAlexSilver i will be waiting
Levanny is one of 3 of my favourite Pokémon of Ash’s Unova Pokémon
I definitely used Leavanny in a play through because of Sewaddles introduction
Nice video alex
Loved Roxie gym battle
I liked the battle animation, but wasn't a fan that Ash used six against 3 :/
Speaking of ash scraggy that would make a great video of ash’s scraggy
I love Swaddle and Leavanny!!! Especially their voices 😂😅
We share some similar opinions and some major differences haha 😅
Wow a new video of ash leavanny story amazing thank you ProfessorAlexSilver your the best keep up the good work bunny your awesome!!😁👍💗🧨🎉🎇🎆🎊🎈✨️🎉🎉🎁🎁
My pleasure! Hoping to get back in the swings of posting soon :)
Leavanny gotten a lot stronger with through unova and even while ash travels the other regions
Most definitely, would love to see him battle again
The Complete History of Ash's Talonflame.
On the list!!
@@ProfessorAlexSilverhow about ash‘s noivern?
I'm a huge fan of all of ash's bug Pokémon. Still waiting on Butterfree to come back though.
Ash always beleafed in sewaddle, it's how it grown so much
Am I the only one who liked Leavanny's anime voice? When I was younger I used to mimic it pretty well.
Only reason I like Leavanny is because I LOVE Sewaddle and Swadloon. I just wish it had better typing so it could actually be usable in game
Please do James' Weezing! :)
Dang, I knew keavanny didn't appear super often but I thought he had more battles than that! To bad we didn't see more because he was fun to watch, all his battles were cool and the personality was good (agree on the voice though!)
Funny enough, I actually went through playing Pokemon White/White 2 with a Leavanny on my team. And I've been using a bug type on my teams in games ever since.
Leavanny was so great when it was being used it was so fast💀
Leavanny vs Sawk was interesting as they both look kinda human
That they did, Sawk was basically a human besides his coloring
professor silver ash pikachu
Will it come in a renewed version? There are so many things in the video that are very old, but it is not very good to stay in the old, if you are thinking of doing it, can you do it, of course, it will take too long and it will be difficult 25 seasons will be difficult if you are already planning to do it
I'll likely tackle the rest of Pikachu's sagas at some point (or just mash it all up :))
I didn’t like most of Unova as a anime but I liked when levanny was baby ash’s rowlet.
I allways picked this cute little guy for a grass type when I didn't pick Snivy as my starter.
Great choice :)
The Complete History Of Paul's Honchkrow
Class is back in session??? Alright!!
More to come :)
Leavanny went from being like ash to being like his mother
Haha good comparison
Do you plan on doing a video on Satoshi’s (Ash’s) Barrierd (Mr. Mime)?
Ash's second best Unovan mon... yeah... you heard me. Krookodile reigns supreme but man does that Bug Grass get better treatment than... Snivy. I'm so depressed by this. Sewaddle feels like they needed some more episodes with Scraggy due to how similar they were at first (though not much episodes were given out due to the switching party motive for Gen 5).
