I'm still in awe that the man who got his entire gym burnt to the ground got the most fire drip out in Kanto.
well he doesn't have to spend cash on technology stuff now lol
His drip was forged from fresh magma
@@davy3832 That's that all-around tinkering prowess with fire pokemons from Arcanine, to Magcargo and to Camerupt. He sees them all.
I mean, he is a fire type trainer
How ironic that the fire type gym leader got his gym burnt down
I never thought about that aviator + Pidgeot connection when thinking of Blue! That's a great catch!
I realized it more recently when Masters had him with Pidgeot and I was like “Oh yeah, that is kind of his ace Pokémon in HGSS.”
This also made me realize that Blue gives out the Earth Badge, which is shaped like a feather since Giovanni was meant to be a Flying gym leader initially. I guess it’s a nice connection
Someone on twitter pointed it out to me and i was like ohhhhg
I won’t lie though, I really wish he had a blastoise even if it wouldn’t be his ace
@@luncenysano5840 The Earth Badge is actually similar to a Sakaki Tree (Sakaki being Giovanni's name in japanese)! It is kind of feather looking, but the green gives it away!
Blue's glowup honestly makes me so happy, you can so clearly see how he grew from a smug, cocky little bully to a more mature, kinder boy that acts as a mentor while still retaining his playful smugness. Even his physical design shows his development as a person without erasing what made him Blue.
Blue feels like that older brother that annoys you when you're young but becomes someone you can rely on and a fun presence when you both get older. He's still the same person at heart but he's learned and grew past a few of his not so desired qualities.
@@castform7 Yeah, he's especially like this in Masters.
I love Blaine’s glow-up. Having recently played SS, it’s great when you fight Blaine and he seems to be almost happy to be beaten, because it means his cave gym that he made is a real gym
I love that idea
overthinking it
@@zereon underthinking it
@@zereon nah
@@zereon annoying
I love how the HG & SS designs kinda became the canon look for them now. Which I'm fine with myself. 😌
I mean that is how we last canonly saw them
Yeah, the fact that that’s how they appear in the Pokémon World Tournament is pretty cool.
@@GatorEX While I enjoy the concept, the fact that they were basically using EV trained Pokemon made it VERY difficult to enjoy it, especially with how annoying it was to get competitive Pokemon back in Gen 5. Otherwise, yeah I feel the same about them. 👍🏻
not in pokemon masters, apparently. everyone's assigned to outfits randomly
*Canon :)
This is truly the moment where Blaine became Hiesenberg
Kid named finger:
He looked like skinny eggman bro 😂
These glow ups are pretty awesome. It's like all the Kanto gym leaders grew up a bit or became more casual. The only ones I'm not super big on are Misty and Sabrina simply because I like their pre timeskip out fits more. I'd also love to hear more about the Johto character's redesigns.
Yeah, it’s cool that the original Gold and Silver were done more like a sequel while still including a new regionz
Agreed
Same!!! I love everyone's but Sabrina's and Misty's were SO GOOD before. Misty was soooooo cute and I loved her outfit and hair!! She looked much more like the "tomboyish mermaid" theme :(
Love the change to Sabrina. The previous one was great, but that one does feel more...mature? First one feels like she tries to be a psychic stereotype and second one like a person who matured and decided that "Screw it, I'll wear what I want."
Koga also started to have gray hair. I first thought it was to accent the hair colour, but no, they are little too light colour.
I love FRLG onwards Lance, but I kinda miss his dorky Gen 2 sprite. That pose was amazing.
also doesn't help that one of the sprites has a whip to imply some... well I'm sure some would like what it implies.
@@stanzacosmi tf you on about?
@@Twiddle_things The fact you don't know implies that I shouldn't tell you because you're too young.
@@stanzacosmi I don't know if I have a shit sense of humour but I'm sure it's to imply she's part of team rocket or had some ties to it... ykw I'm probably just not getting the *cough cough * interesting joke you're making 😔 just stay away from lopunny
so you like how she looks like every basic girl you see every summer?
As for Sabrina, I never considered she might be a part of Team Rocket, but it actually makes sense considering the raid on Silph Co happening just down the street from her gym and her doing absolutely nothing about it. ... ...Or maybe she got lost in her own tile puzzle. What do I know?
Or she just went in there, grabbed some Rocket outfit and blended with them waiting to see how it'll all blow up.
Stupid theory but, I'd assume she is actually fighting the Team Rocket themselves inside the Gym as well.
She's part of team rocket in the manga, along with Blaine, koga and Surge.............
@@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo Thats the same case for the elite four as well
@@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo which is why imo the manga is stupid
I'd like to see a video on some alternate designs that characters have gotten in different sources. Sygna suits from Masters, different versions from various manga series (I really like how Cyrus looks in Diamond and Pearl Adventure and yet all they did was make his jacket longer), card art, etc.
I really love the stuff we get for Masters. The only thing is that it’s constantly updating and changing, so each new event there’s a cool new outfit I really like. Maybe like as a year end recap it could work.
The Whips in Gen1 had nothing to do with Team Rocket, but in a earlier stage in Developement Whips where part of "Training" Pokemon... but the Whip-Part got changed during developement and the only Remnant are some Sprites (i belive Rockets, Sabrina, Bikers, Lasses, Aces and Rockers)
Yup 💯, you can see it in the Bandai Cardbass set, and the early, early 90s concept art for Red/green.
Sabrina having a whip have always made sense to me if you think about that, since most of the time, Sabrina's looks are always based of off ace trainers, even her LGPE outfit is based off of Gen 4 ace trainers.
Idk what ace trainer where they thinking when they designed HGSS though.
NGL The joke at LT Surge killed me "He's exercising the 2nd amendment right to bear arms" was a glorious line
He is the lightning American after all or in Pokémon, the lightning Unovian because Unova is America in Pokémon.
Random Trivia: Each Elite Four member in Red and Blue has two type specialties.
Lorelei is Ice/Water
Bruno is Fighting/Ground
Agatha is Ghost/Poison
Lance is Dragon/Flying
Blaine's head shines when he takes off his hat
It's the small things
Bruno later got studs in his arm and leg weights. The only change he ever needed, I guess.
Fun fact: in the gen 8 anime, Lance appears in his HG/SS outfit, and it’s revealed that he trained at the Hammerlocke Gym and he based his outfit on the uniforms there
3:18-3:21 I think the cane is ALSO a similar homage to Riddler's cane being the top is "sorta" like a top of a question mark which is fitting as Blaine also loves to give riddles❓
Riddle me this Ethan! How many cowboys are in the showers at Ram Ranch?
@@ammagon4519 i dont know how many cowboys ammongon would it be 15?
@@typicallystupidperson1273 WRONG! 18!
Ah my favorite character: the scientist Blaine Eggman
Nice one
Ya better have a burn heal!!!
Lieutenant Surge's change in outfits over the three years between the games remind me a lot of one of the pieces of dialogue of Black Ops 1, surprisingly. When you first see Woods again in the mission S.O.G. Mason tells him that "he looks like hammered sh*t" to which Woods responds: "Looks don't count for sh*t in the jungle." At the end of the mission, Bowman will say the same line to Mason as well after which he responds: "Well, Nam will do that to ya." I guess the reason it reminds me of that is because Surge's outfit starts off as uniform but changes to something more lax, just like with soldiers who were already fighting for a while in the Vietnam war. Maybe it's just me, who knows?
Nah he just played a lot of street fighter and wanted to look like guile 🤣
When Blaine says to bring a burn heal, it’s not because of his Pokémon, but because you'll get torched from this man's based and dripped out look.
I still have some mix feelings about Sabrina's new look. I always liked how she looked like a "mysterious psychic trainer" and I enjoy it being re-envision over the years, especially in the Lets Go remakes that make her look so good! In HG/SS, I feel like they tried to modernize her, I mean, it isn't bad per say, but I feel like the only link to her being psychic are her bracelets or should I call them shackles or maybe, power inhibitors? IDK.
It isn't bad like I said, I just prefer her old look.
i feel there's not much personality in the outfit, it's just kinda generic clothing.
@@user-ln2go4xp6d Honestly and I'm not afraid to admit it, some people only like it, because it has some sex appeal to it.
@@SorceressRose i don't even think it's that sexualised really. maybe even less than the original, since they took away the whip lol.
@Madoka yes, that's why i said lol, to indicate that it was a joke.
@@SorceressRose ironic since alot of the fans find the classic look much more sensual lol
Are you going do cover Grimsley? Because he definitely changed a lot when he appeared as “uncle grimsley” in alola
Pokemon does a pretty good job on glowups. ORAS must be one of my favorite remakes of Gen 3 for glowups, they did an amazing job on all of the characters, so did HGSS as well. I really like Ethans glowup, not because he's one of my favorite protagonists, he looks better than from gold or silver.
I mean i hope they're your favourite remakes of gen 3, they're the only ones lol
@@Mqstodon yeah LMFAO
Ehhhhh don't agree at all
Yea no terrible redesign, one dimensional, immature art style, and terrible proportions. Ken sugimori art styles from the first 3 generations are the G.O.A.T....... Gold's best interpretation is the cover art for Japanese TCG set neo Discovery. You can also look up The ruins of Alph official art work of that period. The Gamefreak 2000 new year card art, And "encounter with a shiny Pokemon" art piece......
It's kinda funny. I could see HGSS Blaine as the one who'd run a game show quiz with his sneaky grin and nice suit, and his previous outfit being the one in the cave because it gives off cooky and reclusive mad scientist vibes
Blaine then: ANSWER MY RIDDLES THREE.
Blaine now: The only trainer that gets bitches is me.
I would love to see your take on BW and BW2 tbh. You’ve made a lot of great observations in this one :))
*Lillie takes notes to glow up from Misty and Sabrina for a Kanto look* I really love there designs.
But Lillie, what about your casual outfit? Finally changing out of the clothes your mother forced on you was a glow up, at least in personality.
Oh alola warm lillie, didn't expect to see you here
Sabrina is my favorite Gym Leader. Her HGSS design's the best thing ever. I just imagine her trying to loosen up so she goes to the Celadon Dept Store and struggles to pick up clothes, bumps into Erika. Then Erika picks up the most unexpected clothes for her. Literally the definition of "I wouldn't wear them myself but"
I like that headcanon.
Ah, the traditional graceful chick who's actually a stoner and the mysterious intimidating chick who's socially awkward. Absolute classic duo.
@@JayfroC probably the entire reason why I keep seeing hundreds of fanarts of them together, even though I've never seen them actually interacted with each other.
I picture this conversation:
Sabrina: I should really update my look.
-As Sabrina walks through she bumps into Erika-
Erika: Hi Sabrina! What are you doing today?
Sabrina: I am looking to become more welcoming in my attire.
-Cue the shopping montage-
Nah, it looks more like something Karen would pick out after pestering Sabrina to go clubbing with her.
It’s kinda weird how out of all the Kanto characters they could’ve redesigned, they didn’t change Red. Everyone else changes after meeting him but he does not.
Ayyyooo that 2nd amendment joke for Lt. Surge was corny but hilarious 😂😂😂
One of my favorite glow ups in pokemon is still going to be them giving Maxie those glasses in the remakes it just fits, the rest of his outfit is a little silly but the turtle neck and glasses feel more like Maxie's character than his original design did but I'd love to hear more on the jhoto trainers too!
I honestly don't like Sabrina's glow-up because to me all that mystery and mysticism surrounding the psychic type aren't represented in that design, but I do think it's a great representation of her transition into acting, she shows a more dynamic side to her
I've gotta love Misty and Brock's designs... mostly cause they're the ones we've seen so much of from the anime, but now we can see them as to how they grow on their own... hmm, imagine if they did travel with Red in a similar fashion as well, and this is the result of their travels.
I'm a big fan of Sabrina's changes! She looks more mature and mysterious with that pose!
Interesting. I think the opposite. In my eyes, she looses all of her mysteriousness, which is a shame for me. More mature... yeah, i can agree on that, but she seemed to be a more interesting character before the timeskip
@@Ultimabuster92 i just meant the pose tho, i like her old outfit more but the sass of the new artwork sells it to me ^^
I think Red not getting a redesign was done to up his intimidation factor. In the story, he's been hiding out at the top of Mount silver, the highest and coldest point in two regions, for three years. You'd think that would call for at least giving the poor kid a jacket, but no. He's still wearing the same t-shirt and jeans like he always did. Red is so tough he's survived three years in a place that should've killed him within a few hours
Have you ever noticed how Blaine looks like Dr Eggman?
eggman after he stopped trying to take over the world
true
I think Blaine’s redesign has some serious Jurassic Park vibes. The hat and cane make me think of John Hammond, which works for a mad scientist living in a theme park built on a volcanic island.
I like these sequel redesigns because it really seems like the events of the first games and the main protagonists Red/Green had a positive impact on each of the gym leaders. Each character, Misty, Erika, and Sabrina all seem much happier to see new protagonists Gold/Crystal progressing through their own journeys year later
hair down misty is peak tomboy IMO
Blaine: Become Colonel Sanders
If Blaine made fried chicken, I’d try it.
@@GatorEX Fried Combusken
Doing a video for BW and B2W2 would be great! There is SO much to unpack with the time progression between the games.
I think they’re also the only other main series games that do a time skip between games similar to what Gen 1 & 2 did.
It would be really cool to see a version of this for the Johto Characters,since we can plop in Team Rocket 2.0 in there too probably. (Also HGSS Sabrina got me actin’ unwise)
New Sabrina is a baddie
That second ammendment joke on Lt Surge is sub worthy
Blaine in the manga is probably the best gym leader. Poses as TR scientist and develops Mewtwo with his own DNA, bonding the two. They give a canon reason why there's art of him without a moustache and no glasses. He's the first to know Yellow's secret and seems to be the most helpful and resourceful ally to the protag trainers.
Sabrina's full body suit is also probably a recolor of her manga look, as she's a TR admin and her outfit is almost 1 to 1 to that outfit, just in TR colors and her wrists are rendered borderline useless by Lorelei in Adventures, requiring her to seek the hot springs of Mt Silver (much like Red does) so the wrist bracelets she has could be a reference to that.
I would like to see B/W and B2/W2, and other characters who debuted in earlier gen then reappear in new gen, like Grimsley, Caitlin and Anabel
I would really like to see a vid about the redesigns in HGSS, some characters changed quite a bit from the original GSC (or if your Kris got straight up replaced)
Yeah, I always thought the Lyra and Kris thing was interesting. I’m at least glad we get to see them as friends in Pokémon Masters.
I would love to see a canon future Alola, being that it was my first region in Pokemon, and thus sparked my love for gaming
Like a 4-6 year timeskip, With Elio having A really small stubble facial hair on his chin
I'm SO stupid. I was thinking "Ow, he forgot Janine !"
It's take me two minutes to understand my stupidity.
These kinds of redesigns are what I love about remakes, and why i hate how they handled the sinnoh remakes.
Agreed, they didn't even get any redesigns lol.
I think I’d really love to see you cover the redesigns of gym leaders/elite four members not only in remakes, but also reappearances in later titles, for example Grimsley in Unova vs Alola
I'll just say what everyone is thinking "I wish that brilliant diamond and shining pearl got the heart gold and soul silver treatment."
well people wanted a fateful remake, its kinda the fandom's fault
@@rosencvetanov6129 Pokemon fans can't make a coherent opinion, makes sense.
For Misty, I like her Let's Go outfit the most
Sabrina and Blaine have the ILLEST fit. Love their glow ups
It's such a tiny detail but I really like Brock having longer hair.
Great overview! I'd love to see you tackle the changes between BW1 and BW2 as well. Maybe you could even take a look at the character designs in Arceus, since most characters are obviously meant to be reflective of the Sinnoh cast
3:00 He's trying to go for a John Hammond look. Which makes sense, since Cinnabar is the place where they are resurrecting dinosaur pokemon. I assume he plans to put them all into the cave and charge admission so he can have his own theme park after he got jealous of the Safari zone.
Blaine really went from scientist to a full on Pimp
Please keep making these videos!! Absolutely loved your best redesigns in Pokemon video with ORAS. Keep at it mate! 👍
You should do black and white, it would really be cool to have a side by side comparison for some of the characters!
If you're looking for another Pokemon game that has upgrades that are awesome, what about the differences between BW and BW2?
I remember loving most of the HGSS designs, but i had a lot of trouble accepting Sabrina, it's been years and i have come to like her redesign and change in life but back then it felt too different and too sudden.
imo, the biggest glow-up was Agatha going from a crusty old woman, wrapped up in her grudges, to a crusty old woman wrapped up in her grave
Highly recommend Pokémon Adventures. Definitely one of my favorite series of all time.
I discovered you with your previous redesign video and I love it ! It'd be even down for you to just describe and comment every trainers (yes, even random trainers) outfit and what their poses say about them no matter the games, redesign/glow-ups or just base.
Then maybe do the same with the pokemon themselves ? Anyway, great content you get a sub
Honorable mention: Elesa in BW2 changes her hair color and outfit
I feel like Blain goes from "generic mad scientist" to "Jurassic Park"... all he need is some old amber in his cane
This entire video basically proved that the Remakes HAIL in character designs and that's what makes them best.
With Blaine, I wanna say the reason he is dressed differently because of the volcano. The volcano destroyed his home, his gym, his island. There's a good chance he almost died or at least in extreme danger.
Now Blaine is living his life. Casual style. The cane is probably about him getting hurt during the volcano
The new Blaine looks gives me the vibe that he bought a tropical island and resurrected a bunch of extinct Pokémon via some amber 👀👀
I like to think that rather than a lot of this being the characters changing, it's just a different outfit they wear.... that characters having a different pose is just showing a different part of their personality.... so all the poses and clothes in the game just show different parts of who they are and that we get a bigger picture when we combine all of them....
Yeah Sabrina's redesign is so good. S tier.
Giovanni is the definition of "HOW MANY DO WE HAVE TO TEACH THIS LESSON OLD MAN?"
I'd like to see some discussion about bw's sequels for the next video, but i wouldn't mind if you'd sprinkle a little remake redesign here and there.
Sabrina in the HGSS/B2W2 design is what made me love the character. She just looks sexy.
Not sure if intentional, but new Blaine reminds me of John Hammond from Jurassic Park.
I like how Misty looks like more of a Swim coach now.
5:02 dragon master my ass, with gyarados, charizard and aerodactyl even counting his 3 dragonites dude has 3 dragons, and 6 flying types. Let's just call him fly boy.
It's interesting that a lot of redesigns got permanently canonized with pokemon masters EX, but some of them arent. Sabrina keeps her old design, misty is wearing an outfit closer to her anime look, etc.
Of course Sabrina gets her classic look. Imagine being a classic or anime fan and just see this random lady dressed for the summer and her name is somehow Sabrina lol.
Blaine's staff looks like a Questionmark, that's gotta be intentional :0
I remember them talking about how Lance's new design takes the uniform of the dragon gym from galar bc he trained there in his youth
4:59 more like bird keeper
I lowkey hate Sabrina's og look so her glow up was WAY appreciated! I think she looks uncomfortable in her original outfit, while in the redesigns she is wearing casual clothes showing she's more comfortable with herself and more confident. Plus I interpreted her bracelets as power limiters, showing that she's now a VERY powerful psychic (I personally believe Sabrina is the second strongest psychic in the pokemon games, second only to Olympia!)
This is the first time I've seen someone hate her OG look
Also yeah I think the bracelets are meant to control her powers much better, and because of how mysterious and edgy she is in the first games, her psychic powers were probably unstable as well.
You’re not the only one in this minority. I hate the old outfit because she looks like a stripper, so I appreciate in HGSS they went with a more casual and welcoming look since unlike her Manga self Sabrina’s game self isn’t a psychotic criminal, she is just a teenage girl who needs to learn to control her powers.
you should definitely do the character changes in bw to bw2 those games deserve more love
Tf you mean? They're literally one, if not, the most popular games in the series lol.
@@ammagon4519 they get a lot of praise (and it's well deserved), but they also were one of the lowest selling mainline pokemon games.
@@davidgusquiloor2665 really? Judging from the amounts of people who won't shut up about it, I assumed it was the most bestselling one.
@@ammagon4519 There were a lot of factors going against it, like thrid versions always selling less and the end life of the DS line.
But yeah, sales were lower than most games (still sold like 8+ million copies mind You)
The popularity probably came from word of mouth and emulation/second hand buying in the following years untill today.
Sabrina in HG and SS got the best glow up same with Karen!
I guess Bruno doesn't change because he's already perfect, that stereotype of reaching the maximum as a person after hard training as a martial fighter
Or like how he never moved on from the League, like 2 generations in and he was still an Elite 4 member.
Cool video! I like time skip redesigns, and I find this video a bit inspiring.
i love HGSS sabrinas look the most because it gives me more of a feeling of an "everyday psychic" than an "otherworldly psychic". she still looks menacing in her pose. the shadows over her eyes suggest something *mysterious* about her. she has a more laid back posture but still looks down on you as if suggesting battling you would be a breeze. she still conveys a message of the mysteries of a psychic
That's basically what I like about it, despite the complete different look she has, she mostly still has the same personality. If they gave this specific outfit for a different character, it would've barely even mattered tbh, hence why I'm glad this is her look.
in pokemon adventures even though sabrina didn't get a cameo in hgss chapter but did get an appearance in b2w2 chapter. she seems a lot more laid back than she was in her previous appearances, as well as seeming to have completely disassociated herself from team rocket and found a new and better life for her as an actress. she even helps whitley(female protagonist of the chapter, counterpart for rosa) choose which movie she should do in pokestar studios.
I always liked Misty’s jacket look way more.
Sabrina and Misty looking like a snacc
Sabrina is a former Rocket member, she then start a Gym, kinda like Giovanni who were already prodigies in Pokemon training
Blaine is really enjoying retirement.
For Blaine, retirement is just Round 2.
i have a theory about sabrina's new clothes. as her psychic powers grew she started sensing more fear from those around her. those who once enjoyed her company now kept their distance so she made a push to be more sociable. she started by dressing more "normal" then started attending more social gatherings. in b2 and w2 she even took up acting the wristlets i think are either some kind of training weights or they allow her to store and even share her gifts.
Oh yeah there are definitely some improvements there, but I like that they aren’t just redesigns but just older versions of the characters.
Blaine gives me eggman vibes tbh
3:19 Don't forget, Blaine's cane is shaped like a question mark, as a call back to him being a quiz-master.
Love yourself first and most
Believe in yourself
Quitters never win and winners never quit
Don't give up and never give in
Ignore those who try to discourage you
Hang on to your dreams
Take control of own destiny
Take care of yourself
Keep moving forward
Stand up for yourself
Stand tall and be brave
Stay strong
Act of kindness people
I mostly prefer Misty's old look, but I think the rest are dope.
That Misty redesign is mad underrated
Imagine if for the x and y remakes, instead of a 3d glow up, they gave it a black and white style 2d look.
