My horse council hoodie arrived the other day and it has literally made my Mudsdale go from being PU to Ubers worthy, it is literally the most powerful hoodie to ever exist. With the power of the Horse Council behind my Mudsdale, we are unstoppable.
I wish to present the case that the Hippowdon line, as a representative of the 'river horse' animal - the hippopotamus, have a place in a list like this. On that note, people often forget that the Exploud line, even though highly stylized, are the original hippo-esque Pokémon (this is more apparent when examining the morphology of Loudred). Therefore, just like Hippowdon, I make the case that they too have a place in this list. Thank you.
I think Jim is failing to notice that, as a horse, Rapidash would need not one but two sets of Heavy-Duty Boots to function, which many would consider to be an illegal move.
In it's defense, the item description does not provide a specific number to how many boots the item includes, which mean that, in theory, heavy duty boots has as many heavy duty boots as you need it to have, which is why Centiskorch could use them.
@@OcRIPS Controversial sources suggest heavy duty boots always come with two more boots than necessary, to make sure that it's still "boots" even on pokemon with 0 feet. The two extra boots are allegedly often used to stash illegal vitamins, which could be why the item took 8 generations to be legalized.
A Magcargo goes into a bar and the bartender says "hey, why the long face?" Haha just kidding, the place bursts into flames because Magcargo is hotter than the sun
Magcargo’s temperature is about twice the sun’s surface temperature, so it would glow 16 times stronger per square meter. Magcargo is about 1.75 billion times smaller than the sun, so its surface area is about 3x10¹⁸ times smaller. If you assume you’re 5 meters away from magcargo, that would be 30 billion times closer than the sun so it’s light would be 9x10²⁰ less diffused. All in all, it would glow about 5000 times stronger than the sun. That’s weird cause I heard people say you could actually stand close to magcargo without ending your existence, but I guess not.
@@DinkSmalwood Anonymous sources have confirmed the movie "Turbo" was based on magcargo, because magcargo is famously known to do loops around the earth at hypersonic speeds.
Hipowdon is also a horse if you think about it; Hippopotamus means river horse, it can also learn high horsepower, so i think it would be fair if it was included
But, really, hippos are not relatives of the horse. That would be the rhinoceros. It's like the old saying goes: "A horse is a pokemon you can rhydon." I forget who first said that. I believe it was Gandhi.
@@halbertsimpsonsame goes for the Horsea line, they're not literal horses or related to them, but they are based on seahorses which have "horse" in the name.

I disagree because I have been laughing for approximately 5 hours as of the time of writing this comment and will not be able to stop so long as it exists in some capacity.
Cool Horse fact: As you true horse fans know, the HP stat doesn’t stand for health/hit points but actually Horse Power. But why? Well you see the Ancient Greek philosopher Hippocrates is regarded as the father of medicine (and thus health), and his name from Latin translates to Horse (hippo) Power (Crates/kratos). So make sure to thank the horses next time you go to the doctors.
This is truly a cool horse fact! I will add that the hippocampus, the region of the brain that is associated primarily with memory, combine hippo - Horse and kampos - Sea Monster. I think this is confirmation Horsea is indeed a true horse.
So... Do you lose Horse Power every time you get hit? Seems like a weak concept to me, a futile attempt to assimilate non-horses into an otherwise relatively elite species.
@@_shadiness you're thinking about it wrong. You're not losing horsepower. You're just falling below your maximum. You've been hit and no longer have the stamina to fight at your full potential. Further damage exacerbates this, but you'll be back in top form after you've had a chance to rest. And when I say you, I mean that, by reading this, you are now a horse
It's truly shocking that Muk still isn't recognised as a Horse Pokémon, despite outspeeding Glastrier - not only a Horse, but a *Legendary* Horse Pokémon - by a significant margin. Muk even has a slightly higher HP stat than Glastrier, making it the superior mon in both speed and endurance, both central aspects of what it means to be a horse. Is it possible that this is a cunning plot by Horsea, who is trying to monopolise the Kantoan voice within the Horse Council? If so, I worry about Rapidash's council status and personal security.
This is concerning, following the recent threats Jimothy has made against beloved Pokémon Mankey and Poliwag. Is this a ploy from Jimothy to cause civil unrest? Only time will tell.
Some people could be saying Skrelp and Dragalge are missing from the list since they appear to be sea horses just like the Horsea line - however they are in fact just kelp acting like a sea horse, those little trickster. No, the horses that are actually missing are Mew, the ancestor of all Pokémon and therefore the very first horse, and of course Stellar Terapagos - since it is all types in its stellar form it is of course also a horse.
This is insane. Klawf, known user of High Horsepower, and being derived from the Horsehair Crab was excluded from this list of Horses, when as based of the Horsehair Crab means its is clearly a horse. Hopefully the Horse council in future, perhaps through the guidance of Magcargo or even that of Galarian Rapidash can see the error of their ways and recognise Klawf in their rightful place as a part of the horse council. Thank you.
I believe Kingler should have a seat at the table in terms of horse relations. Its claw is stated to possess 10,000 horsepower in crushing strength. If such a being has that much concentrated horse energy into a single limb, then that surely qualifies as a horse.
We're very sorry. We all respect Kingler and acknowledge his honest efforts to achieve true horse status, but the Horse Council bylaws clearly state that in order to be considered "high", a horsepower count must exceed 10万 (100,000). The Council therefore cannot accept Kingler's application at this time, but we urge him to keep working on his horsepower and apply again in the future. We have high hopes for him. (This has been a very dumb joke about the Japanese name of the move High Horsepower. Thank you.)
As for Pinsir, he is a dickpinching bug reclaiming a move he cannot use. Imagine a white guy saying the gamer word. That is Pinsir. And notice the first letter of Pinsir. P. Who else has a name that starts with P? Pewdiepie. What did he do while playing PUBG? Exactly.
I feel obliged to mention that horses are perrisodactyls, along with tapirs and rhinos, therefore drowzee hypno rhyhorn rhydon and rhyperior were unfairly excluded from this list. I demand a recount
After watching this video 100 times on loop, while wearing my "The Horse Council" hoodie, I have successfully become a horse. Just as Jimothy Cool promised. Thank you.
Ditto is a horse. You show me a horse, I show you a Ditto that looks and acts and has the exact same moves and abilities and stats as that horse. If it looks like a horse, acts like a horse, and has the stats and moves of a horse, it's a horse.
horses have been my absolute favourite animal since i was a child, and all the equine pokemon have always been my favourite pokemon. thank you for making this video!
I think Palkia-Origin is an admirable pokémon. Unlike other horses, it had to work to change itself in order to be considered a horse. It just goes to show, that hard work and a little help from Game Freak can get you anywhere you want in life
Actually Palkia is a cautionary tale for all horses. In the beginning, it was a horse. But, because Palkia was indolent, it lost its horseness. Only recently has it been able to regain what it lost
15:25 “…is the most solid Pokémon here so far” Jim, I promise I’m not making a joke as sanctioned by the horse council, but I do believe that’s how a ranking works
I would absolutely never make any jokes on such a serious video, imagine if iron mugulis heard about the jokes, it would only empower him to do unimaginable damage to the horse council, destroying everything that macargo has accomplished
...holy Muk you're right. Back in ancient times, when a livestock animal like a horse or a cow suddenly dropped dead, it was said that they were felled by a fairy's arrow. I think those arrows were called "elfshot" iirc. Clearly horses were powerful enough for the fae folk to resort to such tactics.
I would have been disappointed if I looked down to the comments and saw anything other than people debating like greek philosophers which pokemon accurately match the platonic ideal of a horse. Well done folks.
7:29 The original kanto horse pokemon, Rapidash, has used hypnosis and is now lobbying for the removal of Magcargo from the horse council. That’s politics for ya. What a world folks.
I'd argue against Magcargo's placement if Golurk wasn't considered first. Unlike Magcargo, it got High Horsepower from the day the move debuted as a natural level up move. Even then I'd strongly consider Hippowdon before Golurk as it also learns High Horsepower and is based off a hippopotamus which means 'river horse'.
Palkia-Origin isn't a non-horse transformed into a horse. Palkia is a former horse who returns to its form gl-horse-ly by transforming into Palkia-Origin.
Not to worry Horse Master Jimothy, in many languages including Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese, Zebras are literally translated as Stripe Horse. Therfore, the Zebstrika line deserves it's place with thevother horses.
7:08 Seadra is NU in RBY, probably it's most impressive ranking yet - RBY gave it a pretty good 95 Special stat which combined with Agility makes it into a simple water-type sweeper, it's a top horse in NU despite a lot of competition as a Water-type from mons like the Polis, Golduck, and Blastoise.
I also forgot: Seadra is also PU in GSC/Gen 2, serving as one of the tier's premier pokémon with good typing, immense 95 Sp.A and great coverage in Water/Ice/HP Elec, it's arguably one of the two most oppressive pokémon in the tier, alongside Elekid, following Furret's ban
Some say that Skrelp and Dragalge’s exclusions were not by error but intentional. “Neigh”, they say, “these sea dragons are not horses.” But it has recently come to light that Skrelp and Horsea are cousins, both members of the Syngnathidae family. And if your cousin’s a horse, well have I got news for you.
While Kingdra, a seahorse, is part of the horse family, Dragalge is actually sea dragon, which would put it in the dragon family. Important distinction.
3:18 I'm still surprised they haven't given Run Away a competitive use to this day, like it's pretty obvious that it should make the Pokemon immune to trapping moves like Wrap and Mean Look (similar to what Ghost types have, and this mostly wouldn't be a "Rotom-Fan with Levitate" scenario because there's no Ghost types with the ability except Gimmighoul-Roaming, which I'm pretty sure can't even be used in battle?)
I believe Ponyta can be a bit higher. It is always great in LC, and I actually made a horse team in Sword/Shield Ubers and successfully used Max Defense Flame Body Ponyta to Check Zacian.
Magcargo was recently instrumental in Werster's Pokemon Stadium 2 - Complete the Game speedrun, carrying the Round 1 Great Ball Challenge cup and Fire Blasting its way to victory.
I would personally rank Arceus higher than Calyrex-Shadow. Not because it's objectively more powerful but because overall it's a better Pokemon. It can do anything and fit in every single team and can be molded, be its set or typing, to fit your team needs (even though only 1/3 of the forms are good) and in Anything Goes due to no species clause people will normally run 2 or even 3 Arceus because there just isn't a reason not to.

Absolutely exquisite video as always mr. Cool, however, I'm afraid you've missed the ranking of the, perhaps, most important horse. Primal-Magcargo is a fantastical horse and deserving of your ranking much like his more humble form, I expect an explanation as to why this saddening event has come to pass. Thank you.
Syr Jimothy Cool, while this is a truly outstanding ranking I am left aghast and even a bit shellshocked after learning that Chople berry was not even in the consideration for the list. If Pecharunt gets to parade around as a pokemon, who are we to strip the mighty Chople Berry of its pokemon status and in doing so, the possibility of it being a Horse pokemon. It is our duty to uphold Berries rights.
Girafarig: «Am I a joke to you?» This dude has High Horsepower, and I scarcely know anything more horse-defining than that. Also, although being called a long neck pokemon, gvis horse clearly has a neck that’s tanta(mount) to optimal horse length. This exclusion is a political hatchet job, and I won’t stand for it.

Truly a Jimmocent Cold ranking all horses based on Pokémon of all time ever
8:33
Did you just say Magcargo is not so much of a Pokemon that can go from the screen to the ring to the pen to the king???
Where's Girafarig? Clearly a horse.
That's a giraffe
@@Braeden-RBYWhat is a giraffe if not a long necked deer? And what is a deer if not a skinny horse with horns? And what is a horse if not a giant fast snail?
Only half of it is a horse. Doesnt pass muster
don't make me laugh
thanks jimothy this is really important work, may the best Horse WIN!
16:51 in today's climate? this is most concerning jimothy cool
when will the horse council finally accept muk's status as a horse?
They need time to accept reality
Horses are back for a limited time. Thanks for making this video!
HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YEARS FOR THIS VIDEO
"A very serious video, so I don't want any of you to be laughing about this or leaving any jokes."
Too late, had already laughed before I heard you say that (at the Muk horse).
Jimothy, where is Exploud on this list?
After using the sound-type move Boomburst he is a little horse.
the video weve all been waiting for !!
Mark my words, Jim. In a few years, Kakuna will overthrow the Horse Council and create the new Cocoon Council. Metapod will not be invited.
Absolutely exquisite video as always mr. Cool, however, I'm afraid you've missed the ranking of the, perhaps, most important horse. Primal-Magcargo is a fantastical horse and deserving of your ranking much like his more humble form, I expect an explanation as to why this saddening event has come to pass. Thank you.
This is officially the most epic video ever
I needed this content in my sub box today
This is my favorite video by you thusfar
Now this is the type of content I come to RUclips for.
3:19 imagine if run away made you immune to trapping moves and abilities, thatd be cool
Skrelp will not forget this slight against its horsiness
"The Pokemon Muk is not considered a horse, as far as we know."
16:52 I cannot allow this transhorsephobia Jimothy Cool
The council should consider Kabuto, the horseshoe crab
It was about time you made this video
Syr Jimothy Cool, while this is a truly outstanding ranking I am left aghast and even a bit shellshocked after learning that Chople berry was not even in the consideration for the list. If Pecharunt gets to parade around as a pokemon, who are we to strip the mighty Chople Berry of its pokemon status and in doing so, the possibility of it being a Horse pokemon. It is our duty to uphold Berries rights.
Girafarig: «Am I a joke to you?»
This dude has High Horsepower, and I scarcely know anything more horse-defining than that. Also, although being called a long neck pokemon, gvis horse clearly has a neck that’s tanta(mount) to optimal horse length. This exclusion is a political hatchet job, and I won’t stand for it.
the video i’ve been waiting for. we shall see the best horses!
