After nearly two full years in production, I've finally finished Episode 9 of Starter Squad. This episode in particular is very important to me and I was determined to produce it in a certain way, which stretched the limitations of what I was capable of making. I also collaborated with a lot more people in the production stage than ever before. Hopefully, all the time put into this will have paid off. It's definitely the most ambitious thing I've ever tried to make and I sincerely hope you enjoy it.
No it wasn't, one of the people behind it (Maddy) just backed out but the other person behind it, the one actually tied to the Lil'Alien, is still in and hosted the event for the some 200 people who still showed up and chose to make a show at the border before peacefully leaving. Storm Area 51 was about as successful as it could have ever realistically been, despite the low turnout.
This series first came out when I was a junior in high school. Now episode 9 came out months after I graduated college. And apparently the series will end once my 1 year old son and currently my soon-to-be twin daughters start Kindergarten and pre-school.
I'm TERRIBLE at time and I'm probably not going to try to estimate production length for the next episodes because I missed every deadline I set. But it's actually done, so I won't be missing this one!
He said there's 3 more episodes left. I want this series to go longer. But if it takes this long to release 1 episode I understand. Well at least we finally get an episode thank god!
The thing I love about this series is how much effort and time you put in it. I don’t care how long these episodes take, because a wise man once said, “anything rushed stays bad forever.” Miyamoto is very influential.
I feel like Charmander is going to evolve. Come on as seen in the trailer he’s fighting tons of Caterpie. Cool trailer. After this episode comes out we can wait another 3 years for the next episode!
This does, put a smile on my face.
Nobody like its perfect like all things should be
You couldn't love with your own failure where did that bring you, back to me
Fr I'm so happy
That's good.
1 year later. episode 9 is here

Yeah, probably. Current plan is to finish all 12 episodes by 2023.
I dont care how long it takes its damn good
@Shippiddge bruh i'm gonna be almost finished high school by then
Shippiddge lol I’m just joking, I don’t care how long it takes because I love this series
I can wait
The fact he's doing all of this in order to get Squirtle back is amazing
this aged..interestingly
@SzionCobalt came back after watching the video? Interesting.
Charmander dies
Haha
But squirtle just thinks he wants to evolve and nearly kills him
I really want to forget about this channel till 2024, so I can come back and binge watch it all
episode 10 comes out in 2029
2023*
Why would you only binge 2 episodes
Romanke Your not funny
Next ep would've just come out by 2024
To quote a wise man: "You can't rush art."
-Weird Old Toy Cleaner Guy
@urshidid His name is Geri m8
To quote another wise man: "It's called Hentai, it's art"
Tell that to Team Four Stars fanbase
True that man
Can’t wait till 2022 when part 10 comes out unless this is like a finale
Dude Amazing I hope it is
Haha frls they barley post😂😂😂
It would need to be too long (or rushed) to end both the caterpie saga and the glitch menace
This series is 12 episodes.
rosted
Try to release it on the 19th, half your fans might be in jail by the 21st
Lol
Or dead
Lmao
Xd
Their going to be in jail because the raid of area 51.
Area 51 is hiding DVD copies of starter squad episodes 1-30
Wel what are we waiting fot let storm area 51 right now
@Zach_is_aria not yet...
We strike on the 20th...
Its the legendary rule...
Say no more, be right there
@hermersarah5617 Wait aren't you working with the government?
@cardace2063 erm.. frick!
When I was scrolling through RUclips and saw this I nearly had a heart attack!
We all did Timmy we all did...

It all makes sense now! Spring in the Southern Hemisphere, not in the Northern Hemisphere.

nice
Yesss thank you!
YESSSESSS FINALLY
YAY
I so will
Friendly reminder: "Storm Area 51" has been cancelled.
Just an awc5
Uh no, one guy was even shot
No it wasn't, one of the people behind it (Maddy) just backed out but the other person behind it, the one actually tied to the Lil'Alien, is still in and hosted the event for the some 200 people who still showed up and chose to make a show at the border before peacefully leaving.
Storm Area 51 was about as successful as it could have ever realistically been, despite the low turnout.
Imagine caterpies training helped squrtle evolve into wartortle and its him vs charmander.
haha, no
I don't care if I have to wait even 5 years, I'll still come back in a heartbeat
I honestly, at this point, need a recap video more than anything else.
ruclips.net/video/WPyPsGJ8UK8/video.html
Philip Robinson Not quite the same thing as a recap video...
@philiprobinson7666 200 IQ huh. Nice
Just rewatch the whole series
2 years for one episode? Quality animation must be more difficult than I thought, sheesh
I was looking through my subscriptions and saw this guy wondering who it was. Then I remembered instantly and saw the Trailer.
Charmander: SANDSHREW FIND SQUIRTLE ALREADY
Sandshrew: I’m trying
_2 years later_
Charmander: FINALLY
Squirtle: oh you actually came.....
Squirtle is actually one of the causes to Charmander's death.
sad.
Skully D THATS WHAT SHE SAIDDDD
@ryanthxx The biggest cause.
I think this Episode was supposed to come out last year but Shippiddge caught in the Thanos Snap and had to finish when he came back
Nah, he just posts every once a year per episode.
OK, that was actually funny.
@burnedacrackerontopofwater2491 r/wooosh
I want charmander to evolve and imagine how violent he would be lol
That or hell be the last to evolve and just get more bitter over time
Yeah that will be cool
Just like how charmeleon tortured ash
DarkArceus no imagine bulbasur evolves first😂😂
*Charmeleon Has Learned "AK-47"*
I’ll bet your a solid buck that the video is on the 21st because of Area 51.
Me walking out of area 51 with starter squad 9
Gold87 xD
I thought the raid was the 20th
ChainChompPlays No it’s on the 21st
It’s September 20th guys look it up
Hang in there Squirtle Bulbasaur Charmander and I guess Sandshrew Are coming to save you
This feels like a season finale the hype is so intense I can’t sleep I just keep rewatching the trailer
The Lizard is Back and he shall rule all that appose him !!! Beware 💀🤘🏻
after 10 months of us waiting you are back i am so happy😅
It's been 1000 years, but it was worth the wait!
This better be good if it took 2 years
Just kidding don't rush art
Pls for the love of god dont say that, next episode will be in 2030
Hey miley 9/21 means September 21st not September in 2021
Yeah it better be
So trueeeeeee
And that's fact
This series first came out when I was a junior in high school. Now episode 9 came out months after I graduated college.
And apparently the series will end once my 1 year old son and currently my soon-to-be twin daughters start Kindergarten and pre-school.
Holy cow it's been almost a year now but finally thank you so much
*HOLY CRAP!* That is one of the BEST trailers I have seen in a LONG time!!
I been waiting so long for this episode
Downside I am going have to wait another 2 years ^_^
LugiaDaryl 27 I think they mean September 21st
I literally just had a sudden urge to check if a new Starter Squad had come out, and look what I came to find. How fortuitous.
Only og’s will remember his animation videos
Two solid years. Alright, Shippiddge, let's see what you've got.
Me: *Thinking about unsubbing*
Also me: "Don't do it, one day he will upload again"
Me now: *Surprised pikachu face*
lmao imagine unsubbing to a good content creator
Dor Bacal the joke is most people didn’t think he would upload again
If you had reached for the unsub button, Mewtwo would have appeared and shouted DO NOT TOUCH THAT!!!!
I’m betting 50$ starter squad 9 is in Area 51 that’s why it’s on the 21st
Edgestango_Gaming so there not raiding Area 51 on the 25th
They cancelled the event as it is taking place somewhere else in Nevada. Mostly because of the lack of gas stations and water supplies.
@Doggo Defender somebody has really gone to area 51 and then he got caught lmao
@carlopannone5281 no
@Mrfade-ch5jk thank you.
The moment we've all been waiting for is about to arrive
When I sall this I cried of joy now 11 months later still wait for part 10
Damn bro it's been so long i didn't think you'd ever come back. Cant wait to see it
I’m excited that Sandshrew is going to have a role in it!
calling it now, squirlte will either be a wartotle or blastiose
I think he'll be a Wartortle and if he does return evolved oh God imagine how jealous Charmander will be
XCEntertainment charmander might evolve cause of all the caterpies hell kill
And charmander will be a charmilion.
I bet
I think bulbasaur dies
Me walking out of area 51 with starter squad 9 a day early
9/21
now I can’t go to the Area 51 raid
this is a scheme by the guards to stop people in their tracks.
@Tiwil genuises, they know what they want
Use a Tardy pass and I’ll Forgive you.
Good luck getting lit up by the military you doofus.
OMG who has been waiting and waiting and WAITING for mabey A SEASON but it's only 1 EPISoDe LIkE AHHHhHHHH..............but also still excited
Actually we know it's just an episode or two each year 'cuz that kind of animation takes awhile
Me
I dont care if when it comes out i'll still support you no matter what :)

FINALY SOME SIGN OF LIFE IS THIS SERIE
I can’t stop rewatching this trailer
Release Date : 9/21
Last time: spring 2019
Hmmm Okay
But in honestly how are you dude, you good? But really take your time we'll be waiting.
I'm TERRIBLE at time and I'm probably not going to try to estimate production length for the next episodes because I missed every deadline I set. But it's actually done, so I won't be missing this one!
King Napstablock he has updates on patreon i knew what was going on
@Shippiddge In the Southern Hemisphere (I'm Australian), it is Spring 2019. So your prediction is actually perfect by my time.
@GT_Walker I'll take it!
Shippiddge take your time, I’ll be waiting patiently.
Yay!
Also Caterpie chill, we all know Charmander will always win.
He said there's 3 more episodes left. I want this series to go longer. But if it takes this long to release 1 episode I understand. Well at least we finally get an episode thank god!
I describe this as a adventurer, horror, comedy
It has been 4000 years, people forgot about this channel
IMAGE IF HE TURNS INTO CHARIZARD
HE'LL BE UNSTABLE
He died 😈
Bulbasaur better fight back because he’s my boi
Go Bulbasaur =)
Never clicked so fast
...For a reupload.
I can't stop watching this
The thing I love about this series is how much effort and time you put in it. I don’t care how long these episodes take, because a wise man once said, “anything rushed stays bad forever.” Miyamoto is very influential.
Who's still watching this in 2019?
0:12 I DO NOT NEED A HUMAN TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO
Why do i like that part
@Hamburger838 I don't even know
about time! “early 2019”
Hey, give some props to the man. He’s been able to keep up a good series that has a reliable update schedule. Something most people can’t do.
Anyone else been watching for all 6 years?
76 views 71 likes come on guys!!
Wooooo! Time to go rewatch one thru 8 so I can remember what happened!
Nobody:
Shippiddge: Posts literally anything about the starter squad
Subscribers: So the prophecy.....tis' true.....
My Caterpie fainted shirt is ready.
I wish charmander didint die... It would be epic to see him evolve
Is there a specific time tmrw or r u gonna release it at midnight
Anybody else gunna rewatch the episodes because it’s been a while?
Of course
Usually do it every time he puts out a new one :D
Gonna do that the day before
Here I am watching Charmanders slaughtering Caterpies
*MeanWhile...*
Go Groudon, Go Kyogre
Groudon use Precpice Blades
Kyogre use Origin Pulse
This is going to be the most epic episode of starter squad ever
Time to rewatch all the episodes!!
Ep 9 or 10 charmander gets mad bc bulbasaur got to venasaur before he got to charzard
you know that there is a evolution after charmander and before charizard right? same for bulbasaur
J R D yes I do know but I meant they evolved like each episode
HIIIII
SilverFury Warrior your first
This better be longer then 10 minutes but if not I'll be the first to view
Judah williams bet
Including the credits, it's closer to 20 minutes.
It better be long
Shippiddge I LOVE YOU AND YOUR WORK
Shippiddge
Woah, nearly 20 minutes?! That’s insane. No wonder it took so long.
I can’t WAIT for this masterpiece to be released.
It's really cool to see how what was originally a one-off SFM animation evolved into the true successor to Smashtasm
Awesome!! Super Hyped
I rember i was wachting the 1st episode when i was 8 ( im 13 now) (stil worth the wait)
But i am 13 and i dont really care if u dont think im 13 but i did not understand the rest of the sentence
@cicerofryman2595 Want a helpful reminder?
Me: finally the finale is almost here!
Shippegde: planning to finish all 12 episodes by 2023
Also me: reality is often disappointing
That's the year I graduate high school and can move on with my life.
I never thought this day will come
I feel like Charmander is going to evolve. Come on as seen in the trailer he’s fighting tons of Caterpie. Cool trailer. After this episode comes out we can wait another 3 years for the next episode!
Starter Squad episode 9: 3 minuets
cool
The only reason I haven’t killed myself is because I want to see this series and I want to see them aliens
Please don't! You are loved even if people don't tell you!
DanGameHD Redstone and Animations Mkay time for me to go
Serious jump in quality! Keep up the good work man and good luck with your future projects!
Just think this series started 6 years ago! The wait for each episode is painful yet worth every second in the end.
Btw I love your vids
I watched this channel since the start of this series somebody @ me when all last 3 parts come out on 2026
09/21.....I don't believe you. Maybe another 5 years from now.
Kinda true tho oof
jeremy 94 he had patreon updates i knew that this was coming soon, if it wasn't for the new blender update this episode wouldn't be ready for a while
He’s 100% finished with the episode. He’s just trying to find the best time to premiere it.
Yay! Now we’ll wait two more years until 10th episode... probably.
Sad thing is that it's probably true...
Lol I know 😂
I’ve waited 12 months for this moment
After two long years of waiting, finally we get to watch a ten minute video
whose waited years for this like me?
Great video and this looks good
its been the moment everyone has been waiting for
Holy frick this comes out on my birthday.
Plot twist : Its 2020
I'm glad that Starter Squad is still going!
