When I was a child: Which box cover legendary looks the coolest.
When I was a now: Whichever has the cooler looking exclusives.
Me: just get them all since I trade with myself anyway
Was I the only one who only played the “inferior” games?
@@mewacyboi
Which ever is inferior really depends on one's own opinion.
Hi
Have you played Yellow version? Everyone's fav legend is Pikachu!
gen 1:Screw yellow get red or blue (or FRLF like a sane person)
Gen 2-4:Just buy the enhanced version
5-8:idk just buy the color you like more
Yes
@@kailuehhayz Yes
I just buy whichever version has more Pokemon that I like in it, doesn't matter if I then actually use them or how strong they are.
I chose pokemon Shield because it's defense is better than sword
@@King_Wooper_ no sh*t
Mawile is useless.
Mega Evolution: I'm gonna build this man's whole career.
Megas didn't exist until Gen 6, so he couldn't talk about Hoenn games with Megas until part 2, therefore no Mega Mawile.
and fairy type... and steel stab moves.
I used Mawile on my very first Ruby playthrough. I grinded it up to level 30, realizing she had no STAB moves.
So I put Metal Claw, then Meteor Mash on her through cheats at certain levels. That’s how disappointed I was.

Shiftry vs Ludicolo:
"Ludicolo is easily superior here"
*Happy Ludicolo dancing on the background music with Miror B.*
No with Mr. Time
I rather shiftry tho
You have to nickel and dime with Lotad and Lombre before getting a Water Stone, which takes you a while because it isn't available until after the 7th gym. And while you have Lombre, you don't have any strong moves until you get Surf after the 5th gym.
Seedot and Nuzleaf aren't much better, but at least Nuzleaf gets Faint Attack. Nuzleaf also has more attack than Lombre, which mean Fake Out does more. You also get to evolve Nuzleaf earlier, since you get the Leaf Stone in route 119 before the 6th gym.
However, I will say that in the long run, Ludicolo is better than Shiftry thanks to being a little bit bulkier and having access to Ice Beam and Surf.
If you're going for the Grass/Fire/Water trio, Sapphire and Emerald have you covered early with Torchic and Lotad
Breloom is better than both of them
Back when Red & Blue came out, most of what is considered common knowledge now, we didn't know at all. I didn't know you got to pick from the same 3 starters in both games - I just knew I wanted to use Charizard, so I picked Red version, because I assumed that was the one with Charizard.
Pokemon Blue was my first game and I’m not sure if I chose that for the same reason you chose Pokemon Red. All I remember is getting the game from Argos and choosing Squirtle as soon as I got home.
I remember choosing blue because I knew my classmates had almost exclusively red. Not that I ever got to play with them
Blue gives Meowth though and in the original red and blue Persian was one of the most OP and broken Pokémon
I started off with Bulbasaur. I guess I’m broken 🤷♂️

The best part of Scyther was he learned the move where you couldn’t drop a Pokémon below 1HP which made him clutch for catching Pokémon IMO.
False swipe
Not in red/blue.
False Swipe was added in Gen 2 and a bunch of Pokémon can learn it.
@@RabblesTheBinxno, not many can actually. It’s only a handful and they’re restricted until a bit later in game
4 ratata with super cut and 50 revives did did pretty well for me
According to this, I literally played the "worse" version EVERY TIME. lol
Same.....
haha me too.. first games to play when they came out, i chose Red, Silver, Ruby and Pearl.. totally the opposite.. Haha
And I’m the complete opposite. Lol picked the winner every time. Hopefully can keep the streak going with part 2
I got all the bad 1s except diamond and pearl
Same
"Persian was a top tier pokemon"
Me:So that's why Giovanni had a Persian.
I remember running persian in gen 1 with slash and i never got crits everytime lol. So his statement about that is already wrong. Yes it got them moreover but never always plus if persian is hit by a fighting move he is probably ko'ed or very low health
@@cameronthomas5165 how could you never gets crits with slash with the cat? Not only does slash give you increase chances of getting a crit but in the ORIGINAL version of gen 1 your speed stat determined how often you got a crit. Your statement is just wrong lol and you're just most likely talking about the remakes.
I never said i didnt get crits. I said it was never 100% always
And ive played since red and blue
But I'll concede. As maybe i just didnt havr a good Persian for speed in gen1 and lvl was low for sure since i dont recall running 1 above lvl 50

For Kyogre vs Groudon, Groudon is at least a great ground type to add to your team. You don't need more water types, and you might be attached to your current water type, like Swampert, Gyarados, Tentacool, Lanturn, Pelipper, Wailord, etc

Something else about that Gen 1 Vileplume x Victreebel thing:
Razor Leaf is almost 100% certain to critical hit, so it’s actually a 110 base power move. Also, Victreebel learns Wrap and Stun Spore and you know how OP Wrap is in Gen 1.
Yeah, the exact percentage is 99.6%. With Victreebel being faster as well, it's much easier for it to sweep any water or ground types in Gen 1 making it extremely useful against the first two Elite Four members. That said, though, Venusaur is a much better grass type in Gen 1 due to its bulk, higher speed than Victreebel, and the fact that it absolutely destroys the first two gyms early game.
Your a smart boi
No I don’t know how OP wrap is
*Sad oddish noises
@@wargodyuki7254 in Gen 1, Wrap, Bind, Fire Spin, and Clamp prevent the enemy from attacking during the turns the move is active.
So, if you're faster than the opponent and use Wrap, unless you miss, it's game over for them, since they won't be able to attack you at all.
Small note: Razor leaf in gen 1 had a guaranteed critical hit rate, meaning that it was effectively base 110 or more. This means that it far outclasses petal dance, giving victreebell the upper hand.
Here’s the thing, he wasn’t talking about stadium
@@salamibandit3070 Both games have very broken (although different) mechanics for calculating critical hit probability. Sricharan is however right, so you should keep your snarky ignorant comments to yourself. The critical hit chance always depended on the base Speed of the Pokemon using it, so it would change depening on the Pokemon. And it is never always 100% for every Pokemon, in any of the games.
For the high critical hit moves, probability of getting a critical hit in Red/Blue/Yellow is BaseSpeed/64. So any Pokemon with a Base Speed of 64 or higher will always get a critical hit using Razor Leaf. So Venusaur and Victreebel will always get a critical hit, but Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Bellsprout and Weepinbel won't The lowest rate is for Bellsprout, which still gets a 62.5% chance of scoring a critical hit with Razor Leaf.
but crits couldn't be changed by moves such as growth or the badge boosts
SHOW THIS TO MICHAEL DEAR GOD
No anything that says high-critical in gen 1 is always a crit but in gen 1 crits are based off speed,yep im looking at you persian

Unova games added an important difference for the first time: a location.
White had the White forest, full of rare Pokemons from different regions, while Black had the Black city, full of strong trainers.
Plus, ending White 2 gives you a key for an easy mode, and Black 2 gives you a key for a hard mode.
I'd say White/W2 is made for collectors, while Black/B2 is made for competitors.
Black and White will be talked about in the next vid, I guess...

When you have siblings, you just go by your naturally opposing aesthetics. My brother always loved the warm colors (Red, Gold, Ruby, Fire Red, Pearl, Heart Gold, Black, Black 2, Y, Omega Ruby, Sun, Ultra Sun, and Shield), so of course… because those were my brother’s colors, I was drawn to and got the cooler colors (Blue, Silver, Sapphire, Leaf Green, Diamond, Soul Silver, White, White 2, X, Alpha Sapphire, Moon, Ultra Moon, and Sword).

It can only be uses once
You can get it another time in the post game.@@azzamandreas862
@azzamandreas862 enough to make a huge comeback in a battle though
This may sound like a weird reason, but I choose the version whose mascot has the warmer color scheme. By that I mean these versions: Red, Gold, Ruby, Fire Red, Pearl, Heart Gold, Black, White 2, Y, Omega Ruby, Sun, Ultra Sun, Let's Go Pikachu, Shield, Shining Pearl, and Scarlet.
Jeez, these have been EXACTLY my choices besides Ruby (I chose Sapphire, same for the remakes). Uncanny
Yea these are all better than the others, I like black two tho because I like Zekrom
the same for me but with some exeptions: blue,white and black 2
Mine are weird, i prefer the blue color scheme except very specific times
Red, Silver, Sapphire, Fire red, Diamond, Soul Silver, Black, Black 2, X, Alpha Sapphire, Moon, Ultra Moon, Let's go pikachu and Sword
Most of them are red so let me guess ur fav colour red.
Another reason why Bastiodon wins is because, “the best defence is a good defence”
Bastiodon, the one Pokemon who, when about to be punched, yells "Yes, in the face, please!" instead of "Not in the face!"
Accurate
Best deffence and good offence
@SageSehyann Gaming Actually, Bastiodon’s Attack stat sucks
"The strongest defense is a quick and decisive offense."
- Obi Wan Kenobi
I choose based on
A) Which Legendary I like more
B) Which group of version-exclusives contain more of my favorite Pokemon
C) What my friends pick
As of Gen 8, I also chose because I like the Ghost Type Gym Leader
Kyogre also gets to combine its weather boost with STAB, making its waterspouts truly devastating.
Meanwhile it’s weather is worse for it than the sun is for groundon, simply because no one was planning to use a fire type move on a water type, but getting rid of groundons water weakness is massive and the sun allows nonsense such as 1 turn solar beams

Good call choosing Bastiodan over Rampardos. Something to keep in mind is that having a Pokemon with great defenses can buy you time to heal your team back up if you have sustained heavy loses.
Plus Rampardos isn’t fast enough or bulky enough to back up its massive attack, so if it’s lucky it gets off like one attack
But it has two four times weaknesses… against the two best offensive types….???
Video idea: strongest pokemon of every type based on based stat total, move pool, and type coverage. Legendaries excluded of course and maybe if a pokemon has two types then you should only put them as the strongest for only one of their type

Not exclusives, but I think in Gen 1 it's still worth mentioning Caterpie/Weedle. In Red, Viridian forest will be swarming with Weedle making that early game stretch harder if your Pokemon get poisoned. By contrast, not only is Viridian forest easier in Blue, but Caterpie evolves into the much more useful Butterfree, so not having to put as much effort into finding one is a double plus.
Pokémon Blue being the third version and Green being the second version: What is going on?
@@Awesome_Dawson_Films_Official: no I meant the US blue, which was green in Japan.

For the Ho-Oh and Lugia situation, I would say that their signature moves are "version exclusive."
When accessing to catch these legendary Pokémon early (Level 40), they have their signature move, Sacred Fire for Ho-Oh and Aeroblast for Lugia.
When getting them after defeating Pokémon League and access to the Kanto region, they will be Level 70 without their signature move.
Since Gen 2 doesn't have any move relearner (only move deleter). That just means that obtaining their signature move would be available by trading or cheat code.
The enhanced version (Pokémon Crystal) isn’t better either as both legendary Pokémon are post-Pokémon League so they are higher levels but not as high as its sister versions (Level 60) and they don't have their signature moves.
Of course, the remakes (HGSS) improved this by having access both signature moves for each legendary Pokémon.
It doesn't matter what version you pick...
What matters are the friends we made along the way.

Turtwig looks good in all evolutions
Change my mind
i won’t its a great opinion.
I think the midle one is too simetric
You have a good Eye
Sir. Jay piplup is cute empolion looks cool
Mikey: Spends time going over matchups and typing
Me: Honchkrow Fly go brrr
Le me version of this meme:haha skuntank go prrrrrt
I hate how for some reason Platinum was like "lol no Honchkrow OR Mismagius despite expanding the dex drastically." It's like Ampharos in Crystal all over again
@@DapperFella Honchkrow was "sorta" the evil team leader's ace in platinum, so I didn't mind that omission so much.
18:00 me "this feels like a pokerap"
You 40 sec. later: pokerap
My team in Pokémon Blue thanks to Micheal
- Venusaur
- Sandslash (sandslash until I’m allowed to get a potiential dugtrio)
- Persian
- Victreebel
- Lapras
- Ninetales
Thanks Micheal
"It's over Ninetales! I have the high ground!"
Ninetales is better XD
@@charliesutton4979 *laughs in flash fire & 3 coverage fire, electric & fighting plus an heal move or extreme speed*
@@charliesutton4979 Arcanine just better
@@furretman3741 I like Vulpix better than either but admittedly Arcanine is more powerful.
@@charliesutton4979 I
Ike arcanine better but it’s ur opinion
Michael starts reading fire Red exclusive Pokémon list.
Me: ohhh this video is going in the 2x speed category!!!!
Thank you! I always watch RUclips on my iPad and didn’t think it had 2x available, but your comment sounded like such a good idea I figured out how. I’m gonna save so much time! (That or watch a lot more RUclips)
@SpoopyMood It's called. A J O K E
@@yingyang9164 exactly
I don’t care what y’all say, I’m picking silver solely for skarmory and Donphan
Donphan vs Ursaring should have been a clear win for Donpahn, and Skarmory was/is so incredibly crucial in competitive gen 2 that by himself he should make pokemon silver win. Competitively speaking all the rest is trash (except for the legendaries).
Skarmory's my favorite pokemon and i love how it was the only one who won the silver comparisons.
Me too
Plus it has Vulpix and Vulpix is always a win for me.
I like mntine more cant handle cuteness. I just wanna use it but i never got a chance.
I hope you know that only true Pokémon fans can read the names that fast where they sound like a rap it’s honestly a skill
There should be a Tenor GIF for Micheal saying 'Surprise!' in this video!
Why?
@@jacobstrangman7564 cos it would make a good GIF
I love how this vid came out right when I’m trying to decide which games to get since I wanna play through all of them
Well that's some good luck there buddyro
Omg
I think you should just choose the version based on which legendary you prefer
You forgot to mention that the Porygon's price at the Game's corner is 9999 in Red and 5000 in Blue.
Why did they do that
It's actually 6500 in Blue. The difference: In Blue, the Porygon is at Lvl 18, in Red at Lvl 26.
What I chose for each Gen-
1. Red, but I eventually bought all of them
2. Silver
3. Ruby
4. Diamond, then bought Shining Pearl
5. Didn’t play Gen 5
6. Y
7. I bought both but mostly played Moon
8. Shield
9. Planning on buying scarlet
Another point for gold versions:
You don't need whilrpool in the story.
That's wrong sry "Everything is garbage" blah blah blah.
Once Whirlpool is necessary.
Yes you do, in the Dragon’s Den, which, btw, you need to go into to get the Dragon Fang, and thus, the Rising Badge
.
Brussel Gaming Truer words have yet to be spoken.
I prefer silver
ShardTheDDon your correct
Mike:the enhanced versions are better than the last two
IGN:A FOOLISH MISCALCULATION
We seem to have been bamboozled
Well ign is broken cuz they find out more cons and never update the first and second games of the gen
@@hexar260 well it's just a joke no need to get me deep in info
Emerald and Platinum are the clearly superior options to their counterparts. There is NO question.
Kanto: Leaf green
Johto: Heart gold
Hoenn: Emerald
Sinnoh: platinum
Unova: Black 2
Kalos: Y
Alola: Ultra moon
Galar: Sword
_I think that you should play Black before Black 2 to enjoy and understand N's story more._
@@geg708 agree
This might be me being picky but change the generation to region.
Leaf Green is a generation 3 game in Kanto. Same goes for HG etc
Youre Trash
Trubbish and Garbodor I will not listen to you because it is coming from two rubbish bags
Man, Those Pokemon plush in the background are sick, I'm even a little jealous. Fun fact, I actually got that exact same Genesect plush that you have in your background here for getting Principles list 3 times in 4th grade!
I don't really pick a specific one. Sometimes I'll go for a specific one, like with Sun and Moon where I preferred Moon since I like Lunala a lot more than Solgaleo.
I do regret picking Sword over Shield because Shield definitely has the better version exclusives in my opinion, but I got Shield at a later date, so it was all fine
Edit: Fixed some typos.
Which do you recommend between omega ruby and alpha sapphire?
@@simplebidnessman Personally, I pick Alpha Sapphire. For ORAS, I'd say choose whichever Primal form you prefer.
@@kira_the_sniper6376 I prefer primal Groudon, I like the version exclusives of Alpha Sapphire though. But I saw Ultra Moon has the same version exclusives of AS, so maybe I’ll either make some trades(idk how to do that maybe ask Reddit?), or I’ll pick up ultra moon as wel
Let’s not forget that victreebel evolution line in gen 1 learns wrap. One of the most broken moves in gen 1
Fire spin and clamp can be used to the same extent, while Cloyster isn't hugely fast with Clamp, so many Firetypes got Fire Spin.
Nasty stuff
@@KaiCalimatinus fire spin is not too accurate though
Also means Blue players can get wrap-trapped all the time when they just want to level up to get ready for Misty.
@@joemck85 That's a point against Blue in my eyes.
Sableye is one of my favorite Pokémon. Him being so unique as being One of few Pokémon with no weaknesses (until fairy existed) made me fall in love with it
Really
him*
Well, it’s about TIME it had a weakness!
Electross has none
Pokémon having two versions is honestly kind of wild. Like, what other game series releases two nearly identical games just cause that’s the brand?
*red vs blue*
Me with Green on an emulator:
so you have japanese blue version
@@emeraldjolteon1472 no not true
Me with blue Japanese on an emulator.
@@emeraldjolteon1472 jp blue version has unique pokemon not available in it like magmar and elertbuzz
I usually end up picking the “Darker” games.
My little brother picks Sun/Sheild/Ultra Sun, and I pick Moon/Y/Ultra Moon. The games where the legendaries army the “Heroes” in the anime, for example. Solgaleo was the main legendary in the anime, and Xerneas was the hero, and Yveltal was the villain.
Also I picked Sword.
I normally pick the one that has a type I like more (X, Moon, I'd pick ultra moon but I didn't play the ultra games, and shield)
I've always played the least popular like shield, diamond, moon and others
@@ChiknNoodle I did that when I bought shield, because I could trade the exclusives more easily
@@ChiknNoodle same, I like the pokemon more there
16:11 This makes me think of like boxing events or something where they say: “AND NOW THE MAIN EVENT! GROUDON VS KYOGRE!” I know they don’t say GROUDON VS KYOGRE but you get it
Yeah i do not get it
Pokémon games are like Oreos:
Pair: Different flavors
Third game: Double Stuff
Enhanced pair/DLC: Extra flavor
Can we just appreciate that Michaels content has never been lacking
Me who uses emulators and can just download them:
A FOOLISH MISCALCULATION
Heheh same
But for the sake of fun i watched the video
Fbi: Oh, so u are approaching me? Instead of buying the games yourself u are using emulation?
Me too.
@@UltraIsAwesome Is that a mf Jojo reference
@@blenddii Nah it's a Pokemon Refernce XD
Gen 1: whatever you want
Gen 2 : gold
Gen 3: ruby
Gen 4: whatever you want
Gen 5: depends on your taste . All games are very good an diverse with important differences between versions .
Gen 6: whatever you want.
Gen 7: whatever you want
Gen 8: it’s sword or nothing
For me, usually a matter of which version of each set of games has the most version-exclusive Pokemon I prefer; it usually ends up being the first of a pair, but I can remember retroactively wishing I had played blue, because I came to like Magmar; that's why I got LeafGreen, but my first Pokemon game was Yellow, anyway.
There is currently a thunderstorm over my house and this video is making me feel less scared. Thanks Michael :)
mobile alabama?
R u in the uk? Bc there’s been thunderstorms here
@@ashgrenenja8142 yeah
What you said about crystal version not having Ampharos is something I've felt since a child
Here’s what I pick:
Red
Silver
Ruby
LeafGreen
Diamond
SoulSilver
Black
White 2
X
Omega Ruby
Moon
Eevee
Sword
(Excluding enhanced versions… of course)
basically everything here is the opposite of what Mikey said was good lmao
Pretty good list, as a hardcore pokemon collector, trader and shiny hunter I can tell that your list is mainly on favorite legendaries or just random picks if you don't care and just wanna play lol :) because if it was a hardcore collector/trader list it would be pretty miserable.
excluding enhanced versions? *then why did you put ultra moon in*
Red,gold,sapphire(only because ludicolo its my favorite pokemon), fire red,diamond,heartgold,white,black 2,Y,alpha sapphire,moon,ultra moon, shield,eevee
If anyone wants a guide on what versions If you want to collect and trade properly, you need to differentiate the originals and the remakes. This means that you should almost always pick one legendary version for the original and the other for the remake (For example: Black, Black 2 - Sapphire, Omega Ruby - Silver, Heartgold - Moon, Ultra sun) unlike this list (Moon, Ultra Moon - Silver, Soulsilver - Ruby, Omega Ruby - Black, White 2)
22:42 Why they didn't give Pinsir a bug type move in Fire red and Leaf green : Cause it's gonna bug the game.
Michael the lack of Ampharos in Crystal upsets me too! It's the one thing keeping Crystal from being a perfect game.
Charizard fanboys be like:
*BuT rEd iS BettEr cAUSe iTs cHarIZaRds gAme*
blue is enhanced while red is og with green
but green never got released outside japan
You mean the Pokémon Company
Uhm blastoise and venasaur is there too so its same thing
Charizard isn't even that good in Gen 1 either. It gets bopped by the first 2 gyms. Along with Lt. Surges Gym. It does terrible in most wild areas as there are a lot of caves, other fire types, or water types on the routes you'd be taking.
Red/blue/yellow/green: has main Pokémon on box
Everything after: cool Pokeymans yee
When you’re so early that the subtitles say “Gouri Dings! Weekend!”
