      @@ribor1 Maybe it's not, but it still doesn't compare to it's glory days it had experienced when Ash first caught it. The main reason why Torterra never really had any major wins after evolving is because it was still focused on trying to be fast rather than fully adopt a more defensive battling style like it was taught to by Paul's Torterra after it evolved. I feel this can be best seen when Ash used it to battle Palmer's Rhyperior as a Grotle, since after it's opponent shrugged off a super effective razor leaf, Ash had it focus on using rock climb primarily, and while it DID put up quite a fight, it's reliance on a move that did resisted damage ultimately lead to it being overpowered and defeated by rock wrecker in the end. It did indeed go up against a number of strong opponents after evolving, but I personally feel that it would've faired far better in many of those fights if it had embraced using a more defensive approach, of which is most notably proven when it fought Candice's Sneasel and managed to beat it, which is also notable for being it's most impressive victory it got after it evolved

  • @dimitrismaacgd2810

    I remember a very old interview from the first head executive of the original anime, Kanto saga that the writers were very sad that they had to let go of Pidgeot because they had to make room for Ash's new flying type Pokémon from gen 2 aka Noctowl. The direct order from Nintendo was to let go of Ash's old team and that everyone in the creative team was too attached to all the Pokémon in Ash's team: especially the original gang of four, all four starter Pokémon. Then they found the solutions of leaving Squirtle as a fire brigade member, Charizard in Charicific valley and Bulbasaur as an ambassador at professor Oaks lab.

      Bulbasaur the realest. One Pokémon that I always resonated with the most because it resembled the qualities that you want in yourself and people in general. Loyal, protective, loving, territorial. I feel a lot of people who watch Pokémon be sleeping on Bulbasaur. Hella potential, fr. If he was a real life pet nowadays in this world, you’ll probably become a bit anti-social since it’s the all-in-one friend you need and have lol. It’s the Earthy qualities of it that draws me. Green was always and still to this day the first I ever gravitated towards and it became my favorite color, similarly to how Bulbasaur became the first Pokémon I really connected with in a personal way. I agree with you tho, it is an amazing Pokémon 🦖🐸🌱🍃💚

      That's like 90% of the anime. Same goes for Squirtle, Charizard, Primeape... Almost every episode was the same. He also won half of his badges losing to the gym leader, but doing something nice that made them like him... A few years ago I decided to rewatch Digimon and was amazed by how well it hold up. I tried to the same with Pokémon and found it unbearable, the first season tells the same story over and over again, all they do is introduce a different Pokémon each episode. I mean, even Pokémon moves, Ash, Brock and Misty pretty much only teach their parties tackle and one other move.

    Bulbasaur is my all-time favorite Pokémon, and Ash's Bulbasaur is one of the reasons why! Their personal story is one of the best of Ash's Pokémon! Starting from a hardened protector to a versatile battler and finally to a compassionate, empathetic, and strong mentor and leader. Bulbasaur's kindness and protectiveness are some of his best attributes. I wholeheartedly agree with you that if Oak did not need Bulbasaur to keep the peace at the lab, Ash would have kept never left them. I like to think that Bulbasaur would have become a permanent member of Ash's team and even stay out of his Poke-ball like Pikachu! I wonder how different the series would have been if Bulbasaur became a permanent member of the team and fought alongside Ash and his Hoein, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Alolan, and Journey teams!

    • @davion4777
      @davion4777 2 года назад +3

      Unfortunately I feel like they won’t let Squirtle evolve because Blastoise is his rival’s Gary signature Pokémon (and that’s a shame since it’s my favorite Pokémon).
      But I sure hope Bulbasaur someday will change his mind and evolve.

    • @amberanime
      @amberanime Год назад

      I hope Bulbasaur never evolves. He's iconic just as he is. If he HAS to, then second stage max. Final stage would make him to big and slow to do his current job properly. Bulba is used to being an agile fighter. Final form would hinder him more then help him at this point.

    Cynthia's garchomp would be an interesting pick, very balanced personality, disciplined, loyal and a bit overpowered. Jessie and her dustox had been through a lot and have some interesting story till the day she released her, very emotional episode.
    Everyone here suggest many great choices for you to analyze so I guess mine is another needle in the haystack, also you're doing a great job and your videos just keep improving. Nicely done!!

    Amazing! Thanks for covering this so concisely! Bulbasaur has always been my #1 Pokemon ever since I was first introduced to Pokemon when I was a little kid, whenever anyone asks what my favourite Pokemon is it's always been Bulbasaur, but I stopped watching the series a little after the Indigo League waaaay back in the day, it's good to know that Ash hasn't given Bulbasaur away like he's done with so many Pokemon before and it's developed a decent history even if it's still hanging out in Oak's Lab from time to time.

    4:34 I always thought it was because ash was so exited for it to evolve but he didn’t care about what bulbasaur wanted, so it decided to stay at its base form to prove to ash that it didn’t need to be evolved to be powerful

    • @ProfessorAlexSilver

      Team Rocket's losses are so hard to count, I've decided to only include their wins in the battle record lol. It's tough since so many Pokemon assist in beating Arbok, but don't deliver the finishing blow. It also goes the other way for wins. Arbok does major damage, but then gets taken out before winning the battle.
