8:44 I like the Magikarp Salesman basically becoming a one of the Good Guy Friend Peoples sorta. Heck, "Hoenn Version Of Magikarp" feels like a perfect pitch and makes me want more regional takes on Magikarp.
I know I've said this before, but it needs to be said again, and for the first time if I haven't. It's clear how much effort you put into these videos. You don't just speak into a microphone awkwardly. You immerse the viewer in not only a well-thought out story, but you add clips and update the screen with the progress of the story. Thank you for all the effort you put into these videos!
@@FiveToedSlothim sure that James and jessie wouldnt be the only trainers bill and cassidy tricked inorder to get more pokemon. Maybe have steven and aston help other trapped trainers from sinnoh or something. Sorry if you already have something else planned.
Man oh man, the amount of passion and know-how with ALL aspects of the characters and timeline of both games and anime is unparalleled! And such unique new characters (and love the anime-exclusive badge references)! Love the new additions to both teams! And so many emotional ups and downs all around this second leg of the journey I can't even list them all! BUT OH NO TEAM ROCKET! AND OH, THE IRONY! TRAPPED BY A PIT TRAP! SAVE YOUR FRIEND, JESSIE! AND TAKE TEAM ROCKET DOWN! (Also...Slowpoke isn't...THAT one, is it? World Turns to Ash?)
9:51 of james thinking back of him holding a gun to the safari zone's guy i know this james isn't like that but the image of the idea is just funny to me
Oh, no! It's Butch and Kerfuffle! Who could have seen that coming? (sarcasm self-test complete) Heh, heh, Daycare level-ups are broken if you do them right. Whismur, Loudred, and Exploud all in one contest.
Seeing this was posted 4 hours ago made me realize I don't have notifications on for the channel and now I've realized I need to remedy that IMMEDIATELY
I watched this playlist a few days ago, didn't expect it to update so soon It's good writing, would have loved to see a series for this They rely a lot on evolutions, not just in this video. A lot of the times in battles where they almost lose, evolution comes in clutch to save them. Not bad, just makes things a bit easier than the challenge I was expecting. The last gym battle was cool, they had prepared strategies in advance md for this.
Chimecho winning a gym battle reminds me of something I actually always liked better about the anime. Pokemon can be weak or strong depending on the trainer but all of them have the potential to be great. Something that is definitely not true in the games as name the last time anyone actually treated butterfree as anything other than free exp
Yeah, learning Gravity came in clutch here. James won with strategy, something Ash didn’t use consistently until at least midway through Hoenn if not Sinnoh.
It's finally here, I was just about to give up hope, but it finally came. And, it was great. Though, I was kind of hoping James would catch an Aron and a female poochyena,(which could be a girlfriend for Growlie)and Jessie would get her Dustox and catch a Roselia too.
I do hope you don't mind critiquing what you write, I really do love this series but I do think there was a lot of wasted potential with James' Feebas. I don't really like how you essentially did genderflipped Magikarp with his Feebas with him training the fish up with his grandparents again, it would've been nice to show how James has grown by having him raise the Feebas this time and he struggles with her for a bit until her fight with Juan. It just feels like James got a bit too lucky with Gyarados and Milotic this time round. Especially since Milotic helped so much at the last gym, it felt unearned Other than that though I love this series always, I love how unique the pokemon variety is and how you give them their own personalities and backgrounds and I like how you deal with James' journey being way before Ash's so the younger gym leaders are swapped out for older characters, nice touch
Ah, the anime universe. The only place where Volbeat and Illumise can be useful in the slightest. That's what's great about the anime (and this video series as an extension), it let's us see weaker pokemon that otherwise wouldn't make a meaningful contribution to the franchise.
This is really good so far, and I can't wait to see more. Though I do have a curious thought. How do you think James would fair against Ash during his time in Hoenn?
I can't wait to see the genocide about to take place. If brutal death was allowed I'm pretty sure Jessie would have a body count higher than even Post-Vader Anakin.
4:25 Little details like this that could *technically* be cut are nice to see. Ain't bein' mindlessly minimalist, I've seen too much mindless minimizing in the past and like these extra small bits. Edit: 7:01 Ah. Was setup. I see.
Only real criticism is James beating all of Juan’s Pokémon with a newly evolved Milotic. Defeating two Pokémon would be reasonable but all three isn’t (to me). Also, that double evolution with Whismur was almost as crazy. Still, I’m glad to see this story updated. You have shown a lot of creativity and thought for this what if. Jessie and James are learning and remembering more lessons on two journeys compared to Ash did in six regions. That moment between Jessie and Stu Pid reminded me of Ash and Paul with Chimchar. Like Paul, Stu was arrogant and cruel, too stupid and short-sighted to realize Mawile’s potential. Jessie understood patience and love was the key to helping this Pokémon become a superstar. Bad luck facing Wallace of all people though. Still, Jessie and James earned an impressive achievement list: Will, Glacia, Moore, Vladimir, Phoebe. I’m sure Wallace and Steven will be added to the list eventually. I honestly thought James would have battled Phoebe’s grandmother given the timeline. And next time is going to be intense! A raid on a major Team Rocket base with Steven Stone is pure catharsis to me. Butthead and Cassidy have no idea how screwed they are. Thank you for continuing this story. This feels so in line with the anime but at the same time, it feels more grown up. You’re taking risks the writers of the original series never would have considered and it looks awesome. I’ll be looking forward to the next entry next year.

Blinky is quite a pacmanian stretch. 18:28 Not a fan of the "Fiery Spirit Anime Bullshit" of Growlithe when it might as well have used Flamewheel to thaw out immediately instead. 34:25 Butch and Cassidy??? Blinky was already a stretch but Butch is rediculous. You just had to have this famous real life criminals reference in here, didn't you?

I hope one of them will get a shiny
@@joshfarmer8408 I was totally going to do that, but decided to save it for a later video idea!
I hope there's a "movie" they get.
Waiting for Jessie to get her Dustox!

In the next episode Jessie and Steven attack the team rocket base so hard it'll make the mass extinction event in XY look like a joke.
It’s been 3000 years
no it's been so long that Joe Biden died
"It's been so long"
you mean: It's Been 9 Month
( Part 6 )
@@leerobinalesna4683 the joke
your head
Since the great Kalos war
So many ferries, and the fairy type hasn’t been introduced yet.
I love how you can make me instantly hate Stew Pid with a single scene lol. Poor Mawile
He's the worst
Maybe Jessie can rub Mawile’s victories in on live television during the Grand Festival. Let Stu know who he abandoned and what he gave up.

Thank you so much!
My favorite fanfic series is back! thank you sloth oh what joy! Love the concept of helping the volbeat and illumise migrate as well.
You are very welcome! *happy sloth noises*

I FEEL SO HAPPY WHEN I WAIT SO LONG FOR THESE THEY MAKE ME SO HAPPY WHEN THEY JUST POP UP
You chose some great picks for additions to the teams, especially Volbeat and Illumise. It now feels weird that they didn't have them in canon!
I know right? They even match their color scheme!
25:28 Woah! Whismurr was holding back that first evo for a while then!
He was cute to goofy to intimidating

SAVE YOUR FRIEND, JESSIE! AND TAKE TEAM ROCKET DOWN!
(Also...Slowpoke isn't...THAT one, is it? World Turns to Ash?)
21:12 Feebas Versus Luvdisc destroying half the arena I wanna see so much.
Same. I hope there’s a bonus episode for it someday.
I’m so happy this series is back! Thank you so much for continuing the best Pokémon what if series I’ve ever seen! I greatly hope it keeps going!
9:50
James used Gun!
It's Super Effective!
I didnt see you returning on this day but hey you made this bad holiday worth it for me
Me too
Thank you so much for all of your hard work ❤
9:51 of james thinking back of him holding a gun to the safari zone's guy i know this james isn't like that but the image of the idea is just funny to me
I'm so glad this is continuing! The growth from Jessie from the time of cloyster to whismer is heartwarming!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone
Happy turkey day!
More than worth the wait.
Finally, it's out and happy Thanksgiving 🎉. I hope 🤞 the nxt part comes in less than 6-9 months.
Thank you for this need this happy thanksgiving 🦃
I feel bad that I missed this but I am so ready for the next half you put a lot of thought into this one
It’s been 1000 years, who dare interpret my slumber?! Wait, Sloth?!
*Sloth has returned*
Oh, no! It's Butch and Kerfuffle! Who could have seen that coming? (sarcasm self-test complete)
Heh, heh, Daycare level-ups are broken if you do them right. Whismur, Loudred, and Exploud all in one contest.
I'm glad someone commented how daycare training was why Whismur could do that hehe
Huh, I forgot about Day-Care mechanics. Having someone as wise as Slowpoke definitely helped though. And plenty of TLC from Nanny and Pop-Pop.
Seeing this was posted 4 hours ago made me realize I don't have notifications on for the channel and now I've realized I need to remedy that IMMEDIATELY
Oh my goodness, Volbeat and Illumise are perfect for Jessie and James (respectively)!
few months ago I died....but the enxt epsiode of james never engaed comes out so.... I come back alive
I watched this playlist a few days ago, didn't expect it to update so soon

Butterfree and Vivillon can use Quiver Dance tho...
but Volcarona is WAY better
It’s a thanksgiving miracle!
For thousands of years I lay dormant. WHO DARES DISTURB MY- Oh it is Part 7.
You’ve written an amazing story so far. You’ve also given Jessie and James perfect pokemon and this is just fantastic.
It's finally here, I was just about to give up hope, but it finally came. And, it was great.
Though, I was kind of hoping James would catch an Aron and a female poochyena,(which could be a girlfriend for Growlie)and Jessie would get her Dustox and catch a Roselia too.
Great see this back in action and happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽️
OMG THEY FINQLLY RELEASED IT IVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER LETS FREAKING GOOOOOO!

20:48
Best scene in this entire series even if we don't get to watch it
Time to binge watch the other episodes again

Nice to see it return.
I wonder if i need to catch up or not
How could anyone be so cruel to something as cute as Mawile 😢
Stupid is as Stupid does. And there’s no cure for it.
I need more!
0:03
I don't even know how someone can make such a sad scene this goofy
I thought this was discontinued tbh glad to see it’s back
This is really good so far, and I can't wait to see more. Though I do have a curious thought. How do you think James would fair against Ash during his time in Hoenn?
OH MY GOD! YOU UPDATED!
yay 7 is out now :D
Finally we meet again 😂
This is beautiful
ITS ABOUT TIME
21:55 Please don't say Hod in a devaluing way.
I can't wait to see the genocide about to take place. If brutal death was allowed I'm pretty sure Jessie would have a body count higher than even Post-Vader Anakin.
Pls continue this more often it was ten months
4:25 Little details like this that could *technically* be cut are nice to see.
Ain't bein' mindlessly minimalist, I've seen too much mindless minimizing in the past and like these extra small bits.
Edit: 7:01 Ah. Was setup. I see.
Slowpoke was pressing the b button on whismer during their training
You can't use two pokemon on the combat round. One on the appeal round and the other on te combat..
Goood video
Yay!
Why no dustox? 😢

I mean, Krabby in the Indigo League did the same thing, so it isn't exactly out there in the anime logic. I mean, Lightning Armor...
Please make part 3 of what if Ash did a nuzlocke
It's been long overdue
Slowpok evolve in slowking i hope
where is part 8 😭
