I do not understand why people say Mimikyu is a pika clone, his WHOLE THING is that bro isn’t a pika clone 😭
They're Pokemon fans
What do you expect?
Same here. I refuse to consider Mimikyu a Pika-Clone.
More like hes whole thing is that it wants to be a pika-clone
I've seen people praise it for being "meta" about the whole Pika clone thing, but that's about it.
They all fell for its disguise I guess... 💀
THANK YOU FOR SAYING MIMIKYU ISN'T A PIKACLONE! I am so sick of people saying it is a Pikaclone when Togademaru is already the clone of Alola. There's more to what makes something a Pikaclone than looking like Pikachu!
I feel like it's the most and least accurate showcase of the term. Instead of just so happening to look like Pikachu it's actively trying to manufacture Pikachu's success. It's the one trying the most to be Pikachu and I think that's where the disparity lies.
Mimikyu is the devs playing around on the whole Pikaclone thing.
What's more impressiva is that the idea was that it failed in becoming a Pikaclone, but, at the same time, it was the most successful in achieving the Pikaclone objective.
So, I'd say that, while it isn't a Pikaclone by definition, it's effectively a Pikaclone.
I always have to say "my favourite pikaclone is mimikyu *if it counts*" and I wish there was a consensus on this among the fandom because that's so unwieldy to say 😂
Mimikyu is and isn't a Pikaclone. It was (partially) made to poke fun at Pikachu's popularity and how other pikaclones were made to manufacture that same popularity, but even though it's self aware, it's existence still was to achieve that same goal: to manufacture Pikachu's popularity.
Plus, if we aren't counting Mimikyu as a pikaclone, where do we draw the line? Is Marill a pikaclone? Is Pichu a pikaclone?
@@cultofmel While I like to joke around with the "Pikablu" moniker, Marill definitely isn't a Pikaclone. As for Pichu, it ticks all the boxes for what a Pikaclone is. An Electric rodent introduced after Pikachu that shares very similar design quirks. The only problem is it's Pikachu's pre evolution. Unlike the others, it has to look somewhat like Pikachu.
well yeah ofc people love larry he's a semi-depressed middle aged overworked man
Honestly that’s fair
I don't think we need the semi in that sentence.

I’ll say it, I actually really liked sword and shield. I competed in a lot of sports in high school and college, so fighting in a dome with a huge crowd cheering made me feel so hyped and happy
I also really liked sword and shield. Probably mostly because they were my first Pokémon games and I was younger. Although, I found dynamax (and yes, the gyms too!) really cool and the style of the games was appealing to me.

Finally someone who shares my opinion on scarlet and violet, taking out the bugs and the fact the game was rushed to all hell, it realistically is the best direction/outcome the series couldve gone after sword and shield
The technical side of things (graphics, optimization, etc.) is the only flaw keeping S/V from being great, but it's such a HUGE flaw that it's almost impossible to look past IMO.
@@calamelli209 And? Doesn't mean you call the games shit and "the single worst games to be released since Superman 64". That is now putting on biased glasses and just choosing to overlook EVERYTHING GOOD the games did for the franchise, just to focus on how "pretty" it is (or I guess "ugly", since you're all bitching about it so much). Everyone who loves the games aren't disregarding the performance side of it. We acknowledge that they fucked up MASSIVELY in releasing it (which blame that on TPC's STUPID AS HELL "must have a Pokemon game release every single year because we need the holiday revenue" mentality). But what we also are doing is acknowledging EVERYTHING ELSE the games have done, and THAT is why we love SV so much. Cherry picking elements and disregarding the rest is NOT how you give criticism towards something. You have to see the WHOLE picture, not just one aspect of it. That's also why we love Legends Arceus so much. Is the game, in essence, very basic and bare-boned? Yes, it absolutely is. Is it still a super fun game that I love going back to constantly despite its simplicity? ABSOLUTELY YES!!! And is why everyone is excited for Legends Z-A and what that game is gonna have in store for us.
@@vgmaster02 I never called the games shit though. The technical flaws are unacceptable and keep S/V from being great, but it's still fun to play. If I were ranking all of the Pokemon games, S/V would be solidly mid-tier, but my point is that it would be high or maybe even top tier if it wasn't for those technical flaws.
I've always said SV are embarrassing, but not bad. The final product we got was good, but given that it's POKEMON, we should have gotten more than we actually got.
@@arandomcommenter0135 Tbh, no game will ever be as embarrassing as Sword and Shield(to the point that I could compare it to Sonic Forces) which is saying alot considering my overall dislike for X/Y with how much of a step back that game was in terms of everything just to accommodate mobile gamers excluding the supertraining. Unlike Scarlet and Violet it did nothing to advance anything with little redeeming qualities excluding how TMs and TR's were handled. Though in my opinion besides some of the characters like Piers, the best thing to come out of that game was the Eternatus fight. At most Scarlet and Violet was just the boiling point of the outdated yearly release date culture TPC keeps enforcing which is pissing everyone off.
Game Freak got rid of the game corner because of PEGI. If the game corner stayed the games would’ve been rated 17+ like the virtual console versions of Gens 1 & 2 where since PEGI changed the way they calculate their ratings about 2009-2010-ish.
And Then They added Microtransactions with Pokemon Unite
Pretty much. Also to add onto this: it's TECHNICALLY not considered gambling if you get SOMETHING with every play and you never have a "loss" where you get nothing at all, even if there's randomness involved. That's why the Pokemon TCG exists, why Pokemon Masters exists, and why features like the Cram-O-Matic that have heavy RNG elements still exist and don't drive up the rating. They feel like gambling, but based on the way the law is written, they're not.
It's so weird though. Gambling IN GAME money that costs nothing in the real world and all of it can be accrued by normal gameplay can't be compared with encouraging the gambling of actual money
@@Mr.Brothybear Last time I checked, Unite is not a main series game, so 13+ ratings are acceptable.
They should’ve added non gambling mini games in the game corner like voltorb flip or some shitty knock off of flappy bird or something
“WHAT’S YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER ROGUE!? SHUT UP! It’s seven by the way” had me laughing
Rogue! Why can't anyone spell ROGUE?!
@@HazeEmry oh, I’ll fix it
Enough people dislike Masters EX. They just like seeing their characters interact. It's a "watch the story, skip the gameplay" kind of game.
I did the eact opposite, skip the story and just bave gameplay
I did both, I loved playing it but after I beat the game the only thing keeping me there was Paulo being my 2nd favorite character ever
(The fact that his edgyness was enough to consume a Pokemon and make him become "The Last Evil" just because I existed made me want to be the best rival ever, which is one of the best feelings of all time)
I deleted masters ex a while ago to save storage on my phone, so now I just watch the events on youtube if they have my favorite characters in them (mostly the paldea crew. still waiting on the day that team star gets added...)
“Opinions can’t be wrong”
Racism💀💀💀
X and y are my favorite gen, emolga is my favorite pika clone and feraligatr is the best gen 2 starter and Typhlosion is my least favorite fire starter.
COME AT ME!!!!
Edit: so apparently I’m based but I have one that will make you SEETHING in rage…
I don’t mind the 3d models of Pokémon, some of them I like like charizard, lugia and blastoise, even the before the scarlet and violet models.
COME AT ME NOW!!!!
Tbh X and Y OST is better than BW OST
Based
i mean emolga is definitively one of the better pika clones, feraligatr being the best out of the midest starters in the series, if i wasn't the biggest delphox hater i would agree with the Thyplosion one because he isnt bad, but the other fire starters are really fucking good and you are on a absolute nostalgia trip with gen 6 being your favorite gen
They are not even that unreasonable.
Excluding the typhlosion take I fully agree w you
Here's one unpopular opinion:The theory of Venonat and Metapod's evolutions being swapped is COMPLETE BUNK, catepillars become butterflies and moths, but butterflies are the more known comparison and also why would a nat become a butterfly?
Sens when was BUNK a word?
@@danielsantoro6332 Bunk has long been a word. It derives from "bunkum" and has been used for over 200 years (I looked it up)
@@BJGvideos informal though. So, not really an actual word. Like a lot of people I know say pehal but we all know it's informal and not actually a word.
@@HazeEmry Informal words are still words. Do you think that only the strictest legalese are "real words"?
Pikachu clones are indeed overhated they're cute. I feel like I'm part of the problem because I was ready for violence the moment you said you didn't like Penny cause that girl is my favorite of the A0 crew
Yo, Penny gang?

As someone that dislikes the gen 2 starters cuz they feel hilariously mid im glad someone else agrees
Gen 2 starters reflect Johto by being mid af
@@PelinalDidNothingWrong i agree except for feraligator.
My unpopular opinions: Black&White wasn’t that bad of a series & Goh was a good character who didn’t deserve a lot of the hate he got for doing what most of us do in the games.
I actually kinda like Goh, too. Along with that, Chloe seriously needs a ton of reworking to be better than what we got in Journeys
I think that Black and White opinion is the majority opinion nowadays. If you said that when the games released you would be correct they were hated to an insane degree.
I Liked the Black and White Show
@@雪者 Yea Her Whole thing felt very rushed, Unless thats just Netflix cutting out episodes as usual
Black and White was alright! It was better than Advanced Generation but not as good as DP,XY or Sun and Moon
Your reasoning for linking Scarlet and Violet more than Sword and Shield makes sense, if you had friends to play with I can totally understand why it would be fun, but I didn't, I was excited by that feature but couldn't take advantage of it as I don't have Online, and couldn't meet up with friends that had the games.
Scarlet & Violet felt so lifeless to me when interacting with the world in comparison to SwSh, the colours felt bland, the world feels empty, the npcs just disappear, the buildings aren't explorable they're just menus.
The gameplay was fine for me with Sw & Sh, but with Scarlet & Violet (though it wasn't as bad as I've seen it be for some) was quite laggy and I experienced a few odd performance issues.
There are definitely good things too, such as updated models on many Pokemon and little improvements such as Blastoise actually using it's water cannons, but they still diminish that as a lot of move animations were made worse such as moves like Pyro Ball and Behemoth Blade, moves from the previous games.
I still liked the games, but they're not as good as the Gen 8 games for these reasons imo, they needed more time in development.
Sorry for the long comment, I kinda got carried away 😅.
I get not liking penny, but I mean, there was always gonna end up being a nerdy gamer hacker weeb EVENTUALLY
I actually love Fio from Metal Slug more than Botan. The SNK character looks like a cute female character too.
I never once thought of penny as “cute funny hacker nerd” or something, and I don’t understand why anyone would
She’s a great character with a great backstory and a very entertaining personality, and she reminds me of one of my best friends a lot, plus she’s a raging bisexual and that’s cool
@@pemanilnoob yeah, character wise, great, as he said “ if you’ve never seen this trope before, I get why you’d like penny “ and I think the character is amazing, but I get why someone would see the trope as annoying or someone wouldn’t get why anyone would dislike her
I'm more neutral to Penny than dislike her, and I can completely understand why someone would dislike her, but I ....... personally thought Iono was an even more annoying/egregious representation of something in modern pop/nerd culture. I know I'm kind of comparing apples to oranges here but >>
@@pemanilnoob Some of that is just your headcanon.
Here's mine:
Gen 3-4 has better music than Gen 5, Sure Gen 5 is good but nothing beats the charm of Gen 3 and 4 music also Hoenn's French Horns are the best
Also Gen 4 has the best Bass Sample
Cute Pokémon are WAY better than the "cool" Pokémon
Eevee/Eeveelutions aren't overrated, their popularity is 100% deserved, i mean look at them they're cute and superior
Umbreon is kinda overrated, its design is good but there's better looking Eeveelutions
The Pikaclones and Pichu are better than Pikamid
Also the hottest one of all:
Yoko Shimomura > Junichi Masuda
I do agree with the last one

"Who the fuck likes meganium?"
👀 totally not my favourite pokemon or anything, lmao
@@somescottishlassie891 I literally only remember it cause of Mr.Stake from TFS
Recently used it in Pokemon Crystal and it did pretty good in my opinion.
Is it fast? No.
Is it strong offensively? No.
But what it does, it does well. If it wasn't taking down a key Pokemon with a surprise crit Razor Leaf, it was crippling them with moves like PoisonPowder (which at times finished them off before my opponent could heal them) or setting up Light Screen to weaken their attacks that if it wasn't there, some of my other Pokemon wouldn't have survived. It was awesome!
@matthewroberts198 IKR!!, and it's got pretty decent bulk to back up it's support
I like meganium in concept
Grass brontosaurs with a support moveset and a lot of bulk.
I just wish it preformed better, they'd be so fun to use
@triggeredcheese5318 I totally agree, what it's got is quite good, it just needs that extra little ✨️
Unpopular opinion of mine is. I think the Galarian forms of the legendary birds from Kanto should have kept their elemental typings instead of their flying typings when only ONE of them flies naturally. Galarian Zapdos can't even fly, Galarian Articuno flies around using psychic powers, and Galarian Moltres is the only one that's actually flying. They are flying type because they are birds and that's literally the only reason they have the flying type when Fighting Electric, Psychic ice, and Dark Fire make perfect sense when looking at their designs.
@@morphstarchangeling8024 completely agree and I was shocked when I actually caught them in game.
At the bare minimum, Thunderous Kick and Fiery Wrath should’ve paralyzed and burned respectively. Instead they’re just retyped Fire Lash and spread Dark Pulse. Freezing Glare is the only one that understood the assignment
I completely agree with this. I remember hoping that the Galarian birds would keep their elemental typings, and being disappointed when I found out that they’re all part Flying. It’s especially bad with Zapdos, because that’s one more Pokémon that could’ve been Electric/Fighting before gen 9, and IT DOESN’T EVEN FLY.
@@CaptainObliviousVFiery Wrath is literally just Dark Pulse but slightly stronger, and is a spread move in doubles.
I feel like I should mention that Galarian Zapdos CAN fly. It’s described as a poor flier, not flightless, there is a difference. Additionally it can, in fact, learn Fly. So Flying isn’t unjustified. Plus, they’re supposed to be misleading. They got their names for certain traits that, on the surface, are similar to the og birds. This makes even more sense when you consider their Japanese names: Freezer, Thunder, and Fire. Articuno petrifies others, akin to freezing. The sound of Zapdos’s feathers rubbing together as it runs sounds like thunder. And Moltres’s victims look like burned out husks, as though burned by fire.
With that said, Thunderous Kick and Fiery Wrath causing paralysis or burn respectively would’ve been cool though.
I prefer Blastoise over Charizard. I mean, it’s a fucking tank tortoise. How is that not cooler than a lizard with wings?
I Totally Agree
Besides Blastoise Resists Charizard
Same here, I usually have one on my team when available.
Finally, SOMEONE said it!
As someone whose favorite Pokémon is Blastoise, I agree.
Personally I prefer Venusaur as my Kanto starter
( I can already feel a gun behind me- )
Honestly out of the 3 friend characters from scarlet and violet penny has the least screen time and we don’t get enough of her so I understand how she is not as fleshed out. I still like her character.
I wish more people could freely express their popular opinions without being attacked. Like, they're just opinions and everyone is entitled to them, and it doesn't mean we can't be friends with people who disagree. I say this as someone who's been attacked for having unpopular opinions in my youtube videos despite not even having 200 subs... some people just take opinions too personally. Like, I love Typhlosion and don't think it's bland at all but I respect your opinion.
Now for my own unpopular Pokemon opinions:
-Cynthia is the Charizard of trainers, she's overrepresented and overhyped for not being THAT much of a challenge, and I'll always resent her for also being the most powerful trainer in the Unova games while making the champions super weak in comparison.
-I don't believe in the Blue's Raticate Dying theory, he just switched it out for better Pokemon.
-I really hate the way a lot of media treats the female protags in comparison to the male ones, in the anime May, Dawn and Serena are all contest trainers instead of serious battlers and in the specials more directly based on the games they only feature the male protagonists. As someone who always plays the female trainer I just wish they would showcase them being badass battlers.
-Aside from no Battle Frontier, ORAS were really good remakes on par with HGSS.
-Leon should have been the main villain in SwSh and Rose should have been a fakeout villain who ended up helping you in the end.
2:01 I wouldn't say I don't like Penny, she's alright. What I do have a problem with is the Team Star storyline as a whole. The messages it tries to give are good but the execution falls flat. Firstly, because this is a Pokemon game, we're stuck with the game telling us how bad the bullying got instead of showing us what happened which I feel would be more effective. Secondly, there is literally not a single character who bullied the Team Star members still around. No teachers who were there when it happened. It feels like Pokemon doesn't really want to showcase the aftermath of Team Star's payback and how those people who bullied or ignored them react today. Imagine instead of Clavell being a new director trying to figure out what happened a year ago, he was the person that failed them a year ago and now feels responsible for so many school members possibly at risk of being expelled. It adds more to his character and even adds a couple more layers to it. He wasn't always this goofy director who actively tries to learn more about his students. That only came after the dismissiveness he showed and now sees the consequences of.
Agreed. I actually wanted to see who the bullies were, the teachers at the time, hell even the deputy that destroyed the evidence.
Would have been an interesting game if you did meet them and had to challenge them to clear Team Star's name (or at least a DLC with that if it hadn't been dealt with during the game already)
My unpopular opinion is that Alain deserved his Kalos League win. Here’s why:
1. He’d trained and won against multiple Mega Evolutions by that point. He knew how to deal with a Pokémon on Ash’s Greninja’s power level.
2. I’m pretty sure Ash Greninja did NOT have the type advantage, because Mega Charizard X is Fire Dragon.
3. Alain probably trained more with his Charmander than Ash did with Froakie because he had it for longer.
4. If Ash won the Kalos League, the writers probably would’ve found it awkward to continue his character.
5. Alain probably went through a lot emotionally working for Team Flare and probably would’ve been looked down on even more by Lysandre if he lost the league, so his win felt kinda satisfying to me.
I respect y’all’s opinions on this, but I think the Alain slander is a bit much, even almost ten years later 😭
I personally agree. As could as it could be for Ash to win, it wouldn't really work..
It's better to sometimes let down what's cool and get up with what works better
I aint reading, all that, Ash should've won
I Totally Agree
Alain Had to go through a Gauntlet of Megas as Part of His Training
This Guy is No Tobias
@@Mr.Brothybear Speaking of Tobias, Alain (only M Charizard) vs Tobais, who would win
Dude had so much riding on that match, I’m upset Ash lost, but I can’t be mad at Alain; plus the match was basically a clash of MCs since Alain had his own mini series before its story connected to XY, and that’s badass.
Tobias on the other hand…
When it comes to the Game Corner being missing, blame PEGI. Their ratings rules would greatly bump up the age rating for the games. This lead to the VC versions of the GB games getting their rating being bumped up to to PEGI 12, which is basically the same as the ESRB's T rating. Game Freak didn't want the games to get such an age rating to be bumped up from 3+ to 12+ due to the Game Corner, so they had to remove it from later games.
Penny has more character to her, she is canonically a criminal.
She stole the money that she gives you for doing the team star quests.
And she got forgiven for it after admitting it
I wouldn’t say forgiven, more like opportunity under the guise of punishment. Geeta forces her to upgrade the league’s net security and basically become a white-hat hacker by proxy, even giving Penny an employment offer for the league that she can accept once she graduates. I suppose Geeta felt some blame was on herself too, being the director of the school board, and the whole mess that happened to start Team Star was extremely mishandled by the previous school staff, so perhaps she wanted to make it up to Penny somehow while still upholding the rules.
Penny is a deepish character for pokemon. (which is not hard to achieve)
Thank you! How dare my second favourite character in the entire series gets trashed like this!
@@CaptainObliviousV I don't think Geeta has ever felt guilty a day in her life.
so being a criminal is a deep character for you?
I have a strange opinion… i wouldn’t mind a BDSD of BW IF it is bundled with B2W2. Having the games connected for the memory link would be great.
I could see that. Although unlikely, I think that that could do very well, assuming they don't rush it and add in a little content on the side
This ^^^
People hated BDSP because it was based on a flawed game and not Platinum
But BW and BW2 would be hard to perfect so a BDSP style remake of them wouldn't be too bad
one thing that confused me is that people criticize the chibi artsyle of brilliant diamond and shining pearl meanwhole the links awakening remake did the exact same chibi artstyle and i hear no one complaining when they did
Regarding scarlet and violet, alot of people do generally agree that the game is fun the problem lies in just how unoptimized the games feel and how poorly the switch handles the environment models in the over-world. Also regarding the art style in legends arceus, the problem with the art style is the switch hardware itself as the game looks so much better when emulated properly so if you have a good enough pc try usibg a switch emulator and see how that feels. Opinion time: the anime opening music peaked in the hoenn series. It seems 4kids had been working to improve the music up until that point and the OP themes show the improvement from jhoto and kanto.
I agree with you on SV. Fun but man they were unoptimised
Honestly for me the hottest take in the video is that no opinions can be wrong. All people are respectable, but not all opinions. Great video tho
8:24 Lyra looks like a cosplay of hello kitty and coming from a big Sanrio fan, I love it!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that
Here’s my unpopular opinion I’m glad ash got replaced by Liko
I am so happy you mentioned Lyra, I think her design is adorable and reminds me of like a human version of Hello Kitty
I agree... Legends Arceus' art style is a huge part of why the graphics look so low quality. Good stylization can make a low graphics game look great, but its also true on the opposite side of the spectrum. If you mess up the stylization it will always look bad no matter what you do.
And I feel like people use the stylization as an excuse for why the graphics are so lackluster, like "duh its a stylization choice, THAT'S why the trees look like that!" It just doesn't hold up imo.
Goh isn't hated because he takes the spotlight from Ash, it's that he does what Ash SHOULD have been doing. I.E. catching full evolved Pokemon and having several Pokemon we wanted Ash to have. AND, a lot of his captures were way too easy. He caught a fully evolved Flygon, Golurk, Darmanitan and even Suicune and Regieleki. Captures that should be reserved for only the most powerful and recognized of trainers. Goh is not one of them, he was literally a noob trainer like a few months ago. Basically, his development was rushed and he got a lot of special treatment he didn't earn though hard work and dedication. Plus Project Mew didn't end very well, why not just give him Mew at the end...? Goh is probably never going to return to the anime, so why not have him reach his goal since Ash reached his?
Opinions can TOTALLY be wrong if they're based on wrong information. But tastes are never wrong.
Johto starters are indeed awful.
I don't think this is you, but there's a certain group of people who say, "opinions can't be wrong" who just mean that they don't want pushback for their harmful or bigoted "opinions" about say, the so-called biological differences between the Races or the "maturity" of young girls. I just don't want that particular segment of the internet to feel any validation.
Yeah that’s not me, there’s a difference between having an opinion and just being blatantly offensive 😭
Unpopular opinion, I love Beheyeem so much.
I just realized is 6:58 an unintentional ralph breaks the internet reference in that $27,001 credit card scene?
I guess if I had to put in an unpopular opinion
SV (base game) is great.
That’s not including the dlc.
And that’s not including kitikami or indigo disk.
I’d go as far as to say the dlc killed any potential area zero and Terapagos had to be like, more interesting. (Though AZ is pretty interesting, terapagos…didn’t get too much screen time…)
Yo the 4kids intros are bangers!!!!!
Facts
I definitely agree with you about Larry, he's pretty funny but he's a little overhyped
This guy gets it
4:45 I like that masters had the closest thing to a Pokemon dating sim we’ll get
I absolutely LOVE miltank
definitely my second favorite pokemon
Miltank is so silly bruh, funny pink cow GO
I do agree with the whole thing about SV being better games then SwSh. SV is imo a 7/10 that gets brought down to a 5/10 because of poor optimization and bugs, whereas SwSh itself is just a 5/10. Imterestingly my main isaues with the switch games still apply to both (little to do that isnt battling, permanent exp share, basically having the post-game locked behind a pay wall)
I get hyped when he says he likes Pikachu clones, then immediately shits on my favourite Pikachu clones, what the hell?
“Popular pokemon aren’t overrated, unless I don’t like them and then they’re overrated”
"God I hate Twitter"
As a Twitter user, mood.
Also I like Penny and Nemona because as a genderfluid transfem with diagnosed ADHD and undiagnosed Autism, I find them really relatable.
Let me try something:
Emboar is the best Fire/Fighting Starter Pokemon.
Respect your opinion but for my its Blaziken
S&V was super fun and refreshing. Getting to explore out of a linear story was amazing and really made you feel like you were on an actual adventure
My only opinion on penny is that she was made specifically to sell that backpack
But then they only made the backpack as a limited item. If she was made to sell the backpack it would be a more constantly stocked thing.
Unpopular opinion: Staraptor is ugly. No, I will not elaborate further
at least he doesn't suck compared to the other regional birds

You GOTTA admit that “Stand Tall” as a music theme goes HARD though. And also “The Journey Starts Today” is just plain wonderful… 🌌
15:27 - 15:32 As someone whose favorite pokemon of all time is Electabuzz, I 100% agree. I remember first seeing Gary's Electivire in the anime and thinking "this is the evolution to my favorite pokemon?!?!" I've mellowed on it over the years now but it will never come close to Electabuzz's greatness.
OMG FINALLY!
SOMEONE ELSE WHO THINKS THE GEN 2 STARTERS ARE MID!
I've heard someone calling the gen 2 starter bad more than calling charizard overrated. At this point i feel likes they are the most hated starters (which is understandable in my opinion)
Bro really said there are no wrong opinions when discrimination exists
Ignoring science and taking active action to hurt others is not an opinion. And very wrong.
@ivory7182 it's both wrong, and an opinion. This is why saying opinions can't be wrong is a dumb opinion to have
Their opinion is not wrong itself, it is that they attack people for it and make bad decisions that is wrong
I agree that magmortar does just look kinda weird but i prefer electrovire over electrobuzz
14:44 Galarian Darumaka is a perfect example, i rest my case.
You forgot the original pokerap
Oops
Do object pokemon taste like meat or objects? What does magnemite taste like? On the other hand, what do plant pokemon taste like? Plants? And why is there other fruit? Do applins see normal apples and think “my brothers”
I can really only answer the last question: Applin isn’t the Apple, it’s the worm inside, so Applin’s looking at apples would be like humans looking at clothes
@@wangsengsin2527 good point. Oddish and others would be better examples
I love how a franchise who’s primary message is peace, love and the power of friendship is riddled with fans who do the opposite. I just like Pokemon and enjoying Pokemon games and videos.
My unpopular opinion is that Sword and Shield really wasn't that bad... I really enjoyed it, _especially_ exploring the wild areas to complete the Pokedex and hatch eggs. I still look back at it fondly, even though it really wasn't that long ago (okay... its been *5 years.* Maybe it has been a long time 💀).
The DLC was really fun too. I especially liked the Isle of Armor. The little chicken robot thing that let you craft items was really really fun to use.
SwSh was my fav, and I may have accidentally become obsessed with it to the point where it's basically my life but WHATEVER lol
Way too much fanfiction potential for me to pass up
I play competitive so here's my hot take...Pokemon should allow you to bring 7-8 Pokemon into battle but you can only use 6... kind of like a side board like other games like card games.
would be an interesting side mode in showdown
Battles would take too long in the main story please no
@@kieranpleaseforgiveme How? You're only using 6.
My favorite generation is Gen 5, it always was so NO, YOU CANNOT SHAME ON ME
But thinking more now, my opinion is that Alola will probably be praised in the future. It has a lot of interesting characters, a cool pokedex, enviroment, starters, legendaries, the ultra beasts.. the lore is pretty good too
I like the Z moves a lot, they actually require strategy and can change the destiny of a match. Probably my favorite pokémon mechanic till now
Necrozma is probably one of my favorite pokémon currently, it's a sad pokemon that constantly is in pain and needs light to not feel so pitiful. As you read through it's lore, you see how desperate this thing is, explains why it's catch rate is as low as it is
Lunala is one of my favorite pokémon ever (was my first GX card, i was so excited at the time) and Solgaleo is a pokémon my brother likes a ton. Their fusion forms with Necrozma are super dope and i love the designs
And man, don't even get me STARTED on Ultra Necrozma, just an absolute BEAST
Overall, really good generation, i'm more than willing to know more about it and probably will be my second favorite
"my favorite Generation is Gen 5"
You're a drop of water in a whole Ocean
nah bud you dont get to make the rules, you like gen 5 the most? You deal with that choice (but you are cooking with the gen 7 stuff)
@@SMCwasTaken I know, i just said it to
1- Begin my point about Alola
2- I liked it even before it's peak of popularity, it was even a joke at the time
@@charlescalvin8680 Yeah, guess i made my point a lil confusing but still xd
My personal interpretations (only on the first few):
0: I find Barry annoying but I don't outright hate him
1: I agree, pachisu & emolga especially
2: I love cyndaquil, but I get what you mean about them not standing out. Except my opinions on meganium and chicorita are the opposite to yours)
3: no opinion tbh
4: Absolutely, yeah
5: he's an interesting character concept but I haven't watched the season he's in
6: I've never played it 💀
Gen 6 is peak
I played basically everything up to 3ds never switched to the switch too broke
Once you understand kalos is a vacation and animal crossing vibes not epic adventures to be the best
Xy and remakes are just the best games
2:02 I HATE PENNY TOO! I HATE THAT THEY MADE HER PEONY’S DAUGHTER BECAUSE THAT MAN HAS ALREADY SUFFERED ENOUGH! But also, she LITERALLY hacks into your phone and then they try to redeem her because “She was bullied!” BRO SHE HACKED MY PHONE! I HATE HER
Not to mention she forces you into joining her operation (instead of letting you live your life). Then what does she do? Challenge you to a battle cause "there's a part of me that wants Team Star to live on!"
Lady make up your mind, take down Team Star or no?
YESSSS!!! THIS EXACTLY!!!
IIRC what people didn’t like about Go/Gou is while the ambition to catch many Pokémon as possible is admirable, it’s the WAY he captures them that irritates them.
Mind you, I have no idea why I haven’t kept up with Journeys, maybe due to being distracted so much.
But from what I know in its beginnings is that Go/Gou captures powerful Pokémon FAR TOO EASILY than he should. Like he could capture a final evolution Pokémon with a single REGULAR pokeball with UNFATHOMABLE accuracy and catch rate and would think the audience would be OKAY with it??
Now, this is from the mindset of those who play the VIDEO GAMES; people who are used to having to BATTLE with their mons before capturing wild ones and understand that it’s not easy doing a pacifist run of capturing. Cause to capture, you have to battle…make them weak enough, you throw the ball and wait to catch with pokeballs that fits the situation. That’s it.
And Go/Gou is making all of it feel INSULTINGLY easy.
Also his bitch ass is a nid towards Pokemon Go which is just annoying and ruins the series in small ways.
Normally I pacifist battle because my level 100 Swirlix does not mess around
It's kinda a medium difficulty, not hard (quick balls and ultra balls go crazy) but it's definitely not easy either (The Hatterene that took 6 turns to catch today)
I dislike Goh because he just throws pokeballs, like the mobile game. If they just animated him using quick balls, I’d be fine with him. It’s quite grating how he just throws a normal pokeball at a full health pokemon when other characters spend an entire episode to catch one.
Finally, the first human being on the planet with the same opinion on Larry as me!
Is 7 being your credit card number also your social security number rogue
Yeah that’s me
I don't care about Shiny Pokemon at all, they would be more valuable if they were completely white and then you can change the color to anything you want
Three opinions in and I totally agree with you. Also thank you for validating my dislike of Penny. She's so generic and boring, I don't know what the fandom sees in her. Which sucks cause she's the 'evil team leader' and having that person be our friend would have been so interesting. Sad they wasted that though.
Edit: At this point still agreeing with honestly almost everything you're saying here. Absolutely based. However, I do disagree with the SV one. I still really like the games, but they're currently my least favourite pokemon switch game. The DLC elevated it a good bit, but not above the others. But that's just personal taste.
Edit: So, for the rest i'm really impartial. I do agree on not getting Larry's hype. And I love Let's Go, they're my favourite switch pokemon games. They're underrated.
BDSP looks 100x better than Scarlet and Violet. The “realistic” textures of Pokemon and the landscape look terrible in Gen 9. BDSP captures the cartoony, vibrant world of Pokemon so much better. You can have open world without making it look dingy and boring.
Not mine, but there are too many people who think Lugia’s psychic type makes sense.
Should’ve been water psychic
@@mattguy1773true
@@mattguy1773I disagree, it should have been water/flying.
@@justinn8541 I was thinking water/dragon, but maybe they were trying to make it so the box mascots didn't have a clear advantage over the other.
Not only that but because gamefreak thought psychic type would be a stronger typing instead of water due to psychic type being broken in gen 1
I can assure you that the pokemon masters community do not like the game because of the gacha mechanic, but because of everything else, the characters are handled really well, the story is really cool, the battle system is really enjoyable and the remixes are awesome.
So of you can't look past the gacha system (which by the way is more forgiving that most gacha games) you'll find a love letter to the pokemon franchise.
the game also has jiggle physics
More forgiving? Yeah, cause having a pack in game that only gets you FOUR multi pulls, which only gets you a QUARTER of the way to spark, whereas for the same price pack in, say, Fire Emblem Heroes, I get enough orbs to get JUST under the summon cost for spark? Yeah, says a lot that Masters EX's gacha system is HEAVILY overpriced for how many gems it takes. Also, the fact they now have a PAID GEM ONLY gacha banner, that ROTATES, and with ZERO indications of said sync pairs being added to the game in other ways? Tell me what other gacha game out there has a banner that is PAID ONLY? That is BEYOND scummy business practice. Also ALSO, Masters EX doesn't allow ONE free pull on their banners. At least FEH gives EVERY banner that drops a free pull option (some getting multiple free pull options, so you could even get lucky and nab multiple 5 stars without spending a single in-game currency on banners). But Masters EX? NOPE! Pay us money to get what you want, and the events we do in game don't even give out enough gems to do even ONE multi pull session.
2:58 I respect the video and the opinions, but you did NOT have to do my bro Ed dirty.
Anyways my own hot take is that X and Y were good pokemon games, and a good way to transition into 3D. Yeah, some of the animations are dull and the games are easy without too much post game content. But for how many things they added to the series, it’s kinda hard to complain about. They added battle gimmicks other than “look, more pokemon :3”, easy Ev training, clothing customization, DIAGONAL MOVEMENT, convenient internet use, easy friendship bonding, a 3D model of every released pokemon along with an idle animation, more movement options, riding on pokemon, and so much more.
Yeah, the pokemon aren’t as bright compared to generation 5, but at least in terms of animation, it’s more polished because they’re not just manipulating parts of a static image, leaving stray pixels and dis-attached limbs.
The reason the gamer corner got removed is because European Law changed and made it so any game that featured gambling would be rated 12+
I agree I also hate Penny especially her design….its funny since I absolutely loved Nemona and Arven. I did feel a bit bad for her when she became Geeta’s government slave at the end of her storyline though.

What were you thinking?

I love Hikari in her DP dress. I do agree that Platinum has better gameplay.
1:47 HONEY, SOMEONE CALLED FOR ME!
I honestly think that Nemona is the best rival out of all of them, though that may be because I’ve only ever played the switch games, Violet first, but I think Nemona is amazing even if she is a “kind rival”. Also she uses Pawmo and Orthworm, two of my favorite paldean Pokemon, so she deserves it. I also think she has a pretty good story herself, though it is mostly locked behind the postgame. On top of this, I think that Scarlet and Violet are, if not the best Pokemon game, in the top 3. The open world definitely helps, it has a good story, it doesn’t make it hard to access items and evolutions. My only complaint would be that you can’t select moves using the right joystick, but that’s mostly a non-issue. Plus, out of all Pokemon games, I don’t think it would be much of a stretch to say it’s the best game to come back to, in the sense that it’s fun even after the story has ended. The shiny hunting is easy, the battles are fun, the only thing I’d add is daily trainer and gym leader rematches. I know that blueberry academy’s invite thing exists, but I wish it weren’t locked behind a paywall, both in and out of game.
"I dont have bad takes"
*Hates Penny*
Yeah, you have bad takes
Eh, but Penny's also an Eevee lover and shockingly relatible.
Penny’s hair looks like the seven 11 slushy I get at 3 in the morning
06:10 Dude was attack by hop💀
Although I like penny as a character. I'm working on playing the entire Persona series. Comparing Penny with Futaba is comparing a dolphin with a dinosaur. Futaba is just a more developed character.
Side note my headcanon is that if futaba grows up and has a child then i think futaba will be the best mother ever, i know it's not pokemon headcanon but i enjoyed talking about it
Jrpgs tend to be more complete games that touch on more darker themes.
I mean Penny did commit a crime by stealing BP. But she didn't experience emotional truama and I doubt Pokemon will ever go that dark.
@@agentdon1760 Pokémon will never go that dark as to have a character with emotional trauma? Did...did you miss the ending of this game? Arven's whole story? Did you miss Kieran?
Also Penny was heavily bullied, under an administration that did nothing to help, and was punished and victim blamed when she stood up for herself. As someone who's EXPERIENCED THAT, it's extremely traumatizing.
6:45
There is other reasons SV sucks. The school setting that limits the adventures with the open areas being empty and Pokémon losing their overworld Ability effects.
*Hot Take:* Larry is just a rip-off of Nanu from Sun and Moon.
Im so glad this man said the truth of lets go.
That game wasnt hard at all. But it was so polished and looked beautiful!
My emotions run wild with its OST
Its OST is really beautiful
13:46 Bro this same thing happened to me except with my Pokemon Moon
