@@phathomie27 The strongest Bug-types not only cover the whole type-roulette secondary-type-wise, but also attack-wise. Golisopod (Water), Leavannie (Grass), Armaldo (Rock), Volcarona (freakin´ FIRE), (Genesect only maybe, because it´s hard to obtain), Scolipede (Poison), Pinsir (pure Bug, but learns powerful Fighting-moves and has a Flying-oriented Mega), Accelgor (again, pure, but it is speedy), Scizor (Steel), Ninjask (Flying, also it IS speed and arguably the best Baton Pass user in the game), Escavalier (Steel), Galvantula (Electric), Vikavolt (Electric), Ribombee (Fairy), Buzzwole (Fighting Ultra Beast), Pheromosa (ANOTHER Fighting Ultra Beast), in the new Sword&Shield we got Centiskorch (Fire), Frosmoth (Ice) AND Orbeetle (Psychic). So I´d say Guzma has picked one of the best, if not nowadays THE best gallery of Pokemon to choose from. A pure Bug-type team can be completely ridiculous, swinging through the enemy team like they´re made of warm Miltank-butter. Sorry for the long-ass comment, Bug-types get me going places.
I imagine that all the evil team leaders have some sort of meeting where they discuss all of their diabolical plans, and after Guzma hears what they have to say, he just blurts out "Y'all are stupid!" and leaves the room.

Kristoffer Morato Mixtape Overdrive - Fire Type move. You get all the bitches with your amazin' mistapes, any Pokemon who uses this move becomes 6000 times more badass. Base Power: 420
I wonder how cool things would still be be if the villain teams fought each other instead of teaming up, or maybe making it 50/50 depending on the individual. :p
Me: steps into giovanni's room with my lvl100 teqm i just transferred from other games to create the strongest team in existanse giovanni: (visible sweating)
Guzma is a bug type specialist - Bug type Pokemon tend to evolve much earlier than most other types in their evolution lines, reaching their maximum power around very low levels, neutering their power later on. Guzma peaked as a kid, and suffered in his later years because of it, becoming violent, temperamental, and confrontational. Guzma evolved early, like a bug type.
I feel like his off screen character arc is more akin to his Golisopod. He wasn’t that strong at the beginning of his life, then suddenly got amazingly powerful and beat his dad, then ran away to create Team Skull. He went from not being that strong to incredibly powerful in a very short amount of time, and didn’t know what to do with all that power, so he lashed it out against the people closest to him, never really learning to control it. But, that’s just my interpretation of the character.
@daemonicpotato Yeah, Guzma was fairly easy in my run but over the years of pokemon the games seem to be getting just a bit easier. They even did red badly in Let's Go.
@daemonicpotato To be fair, Gamefreak has yet to release a pseudo-legendary Bug-type, and Guzma basically was made to be beaten. ...I remember Cynthia. Her Garchomp was on a ridiculously high level, was a pseudo-legendary, had the strongest STAB-moves it could have for its damage type and it was backed up by other strong, type-noncoherent Pokemon with different utilities like Lucario and Spiritomb. Even if Guzma had somewhat better Pokemon, they´d all need to be Bug-type, be catchable in Alola AND would need to be ridiculously overleveled in order to cover up their inherent weaknesses, as Guzma in these editions does not have the full Bug-type arsenal at his disposal. I really hope we can challenge him in a future edition, all while he uses the strongest kind of Bug-team with reasonable level and good coverage in movesets.
daemonicpotato “Y’all are stupid” I’m in a minority here, but I actually had a harder time in my first match guzma than Cynthia It took me a few tries to beat her, but that’s because I only had one decently leveled Pokémon. A torterra with giga drain, rock smash, strength, and leaf storm. I was 12 Unlike guzma, she didn’t have the courage to face me in a one on one fight. She hid behind her elite four lackeies, let them wear me down, and then finished off the only decent Pokémon I had. And even then, she only won the first few times because I was low on pp A decade passes: I’m wiser, im smarter, I actually UNDERSTAND how Pokémon’s mechanics work I run into guzma Keep in mind that my team is fully rested Two Pokémon? Pfft peace of- This thing has 140 defense, and a workable 90 special defense And the same attack stat as friggin GYARADOS Golisipod FI’s my dartrix into the dirt, and nearly plows through the rest of my decently made team, courtesy of swords dance All by itself. Despite being about the same level as each individual in my whole team I only beat it because I overwhelmed it with sheer numbers Now, to be perfectly fair, i was not prepared for something as bulky as golisopod If I KNEW he was coming, I could have grabbed a toucannon. But then again, hindsight is always 20/20 Ever since then, both guzma, and golisopod earned my respect
Ever seen a Masquerain be terrifying? Ever seen a Pinsir flip your Mimikyu's Disguise the bird? Ever seen an Ariados that's a damn good sweeper? If your answer is "yes", you've fought Guzma more than twice.
Ugh, I managed to finally kill that damn Golisopod... *Ariados comes in Ah, Ariados. I'll just use my strongest move and it's over. *Ariados tanks my hit WHAT *Fell Stinger *My Pokemon faints (Ariados' Attack rose drastically!) OMG
I swear that fucking Masquerain had choice scarf, choice specs, king's rock and assault vest equipped at once. outsped even my flying types, did half HP damage to pokémon 5 levels higher than it, tanked said 5 level higher's super effective moves and flinched my team nearly to death because it flinches like 80% of the time. Like, I have zero problems having problems with water/rock types since I'm doing a mono-fire run, but that fucking Masquerain has no business being such a demon, the only pokémon (aside from Lusamine's Milotic) that I groan at every time I see it.
Reminder that masquerain had an insane stat boost in gen 7 making its special attack go from 80 to 100 and speed 60 to 80 making it significantly faster and stronger. Combine that to the fact that like all of guzma’s mons it’s fully EV’d in 2 stats (here being speed and special attack) and you have a terrific pokemon to face
His team actually has good IV's and is even EV trained [Especially in the last battle] Note before Sun/Moon no random enemy had EV's. Only facility fights.
> Magnezone > Not obtainable until after the last fight with him in the story. You mean Magneton. And he overpowered mine. It took out a few of his team but eventually fell.

***** I'm well aware, for anyone here interested in Insect culture, the very thing that gave us Pokemon, check out Insectopedia by Hugh Raffles, it's an amazing read in it's own right, and it'll make ya appreciate Pokemon that much more.
+truearea53 Actually, if comparing grunt pokemon team rosters, Team Flare is considerably stronger than Team Skull in virtually every category, as the only evolved pokemon Team Skull grunts use are Golbats and a few rare Haunters (with i think literally one Toxapex somewhere), whilst Team Flare grunts end up having the likes of Golbat, Scrafty, Houndoom, Mightyena, Toxicroak, and Swalot. This is based roughly in the same part of the games as well when they appear last (Skull grunts prior to the final Trial and Flare grunts prior to reaching the final gym). This can be partially explained by Flare grunts being societal elites with the resources to get stronger rosters while Skull grunts are broke former trial-goers who have to do with cheap, weaker rosters.
First there was Team Rocket, a criminal organization. Then, Team Magma and Aqua, Magma wanting to destroy all water, and Aqua wanting to flood the planet. Then there was Team Galactic, who's leader, Cyrus, wanted to destroy the universe, make a new one, and become a god. Team Plasma wanted to forever seperate humans from Pokemon. Neo Team Plasma wanted to fuck up an entire city with a legendary dragon. Team Flare wanted to destroy the planet because it wasn't perfect. Team Skull wanted to steal a bus stop.
@@catalyst539 he’s the only dark type gym leader unless you count Island Kahuna battles as such then I’d say Nanu’s is better and he wasn’t going all out either, so yeah it doesn’t hold much water.
I like how he is different from the other baddies in the series. Unlike guys like Giovanni or Ghetsis, he was a guy who gave home to societies rejects and "losers" where they united like a family cause they all understood one another. Him using bug types fits into this as well. Bugs are often rejected and the type ain't exactly seen as strong. But he made bugs a threat and showed their power. They all look up to him not out of fear or merely common evil mindset but because he is a true boss who took them all in and saw them not as losers but as allies. He has his quirks but is nonetheless a man who gave hope to countless people even if they were on the wrong path.
Quinton Blackburn To be fair, he physically fights those mooks because they ain't worth bringing his pokemon out for. Hell, he's pretty much choking them to near unconciosness while you go through the Rainbow Rocket Paradise.
Lol, I haven't seen this kind of interaction in Pokemon games, where Guzma physically handles the grunts by holding their faces, in a long time. And I think the last time was never but in the anime.
Honestly, gen 7 feels more richer then gen 8, guzma has made me realize this, he’s just such a great villain character, the music, his personality, all of it is just better then what gen 8 has to offer as of now
@@daimonicreality1590 Arguably, there wasn't really an evil team in SwSh. Yell was annoying, but it wasn't really an evil team. It was just Marnie's hype group and that's about it. Piers and Marnie were great characters, sure, but Yell just... existed.
Guzma is a good character but you shouldn't dismiss 8s characters. They're damn good characters for a pokemon game I'd say. Guzma is better, but 8 has some great characters. Guzma is probably the only character with better music than all of gen 8 in the whole series.... Gen 8 has banger music. 8s characters have good personality too. You are right, but I feel like you're just dismissing gen 8. It wasn't an amazing game, but it was fun. I always prioritize fun.
Giovanni: Pokemon are nothing more but a means to profit Archie: Im gon wrestle dat tuna Maxie: IGN was right, there is too much water Cyrus: I will be the god of the new world Ghetsis: Im gonna rule the world Lysandre: Im gonna kill everyone Guzma: Y'all are stupid
Love his response upon defeat. Most villains tell you, “this is impossible ! How could but a mere child defeat me?!?” Ya boy? Gives you props. “Huh... Good job I guess.”
Adrienne Conyea I remember this from the game lol, you go into his parents house, then his room and you see a bunch of bronze and silver trophies in his room
I know i'm late to the party, but here i am. Guzma is a really lovable character, replaying through USUM though, something was there that I had overlooked previously. A house on Route 2. A man inside of it talks about a boy who left home without a word, and how he would attempt to beat this boy into shape when in the end - he was the one who was beat. Looking more around the house, a child's room filled with second and third place trophies is another big hint as to who this might be, golf clubs that look beaten up and broken are there as well. It soon became obvious that Guzma lived here as a boy, at least that's what I've gathered, and he was beaten by his father(?) until he decided to run away. Man.
Yep! You can even find him there taking his boom box back, and the father was "out" for the day. Guzma was abused as a kid until he ran away, starting Team Skull. Its WHY he started team skull, for people like him. His anger issues are probably a by product of the abuse he took, and he never got that checked out by a professional
Fuck i love everything about this character. His pose while battling, his battle theme, his obnoxious personality, it's amazing. They did a really good job creating him.
I think Guzma is my favorite for a few reasons: 1) he can go from comical to tHE MOST INTIMIDATING and back to comical in like ten seconds flat and it's amazing 2) most main villains are pansies at the end of the day; Guzma would 100% fight you man-to-man if your pokemon weren't in the way 3) he simultaneously has the least and the most chill in the entire game 4) his sunglasses 5) this song
The Team Rainbow Rocket episode in USUM makes the second point so true, cause this man was holding back 2 Rocket Grunts in an actual physical confrontaion. Guzma is the best boss.
+David Page True. The closest thing we have to that in USUM is when Guzma says in the RR episode, "I may not be one to talk, but these dudes are stupid!"
Honestly I breeze thought most of Moon. Best Guzma pretty easily and wasnt impressed at first. But when I reach the main base and chat with the grunts there. I had to second guess everything I was doing. Like no joke, hearing that all of Guzmas grunts were just trainers that failed the trials and were left with nothing, and having this man be a symbol of those lost people, I just couldn't think of this guy as a villain. I mean, he was there when no one else was for a lot of his grunts. How can I beat a man down and not respect him for doing something like that. That's why Guzma is best pokemon game antihero
Guzma: I'm the Team Skull, and I've never been scared of nothing or nobody. Heck, I live my life making people scared of ME! Guzma: So listen to what big bad Guzma has to say... Guzma: Y'all are stupid! Best freaking character ever.
When I first saw this guy, given his grunts, I thought he was going to act just like them and be really unlikeable. Then he spoke and I loved every minute he was on screen from that point forward.
Everyone saying how "Bug type has always been weak, except for Guzma" when that's the exact reason why he uses them He has always been rejected, the second one, the one in the shadows, and that's why he uses the Bug type, the "weak" and "useless" one This is also why he formed Team Skull, which isn't a villain organization, but just people who were also rejected by society
I was worried that he might've had some kind of Skull pokemon , Cubone, Marowak, That skull butt bird, When he threw out a giant bug I was so happy that my starter was a firetype!
MAGLOCK ENGAGED, Zapcannon + Lockon on a Magneton/Magnezone(Make sure you wait till magemite hits level 49 before evolving) Best strat as Steel has resistances to bug and water Or just use flying pokemon.
Team Rocket: We're finally gonna capture Pikachu! Guzma: Wait you two have been stalking the same kid for the last 18 seasons of this anime all for a fucking Pikachu? A Pokémon that isn't Legendary? Or even Shiny? Team Rocket: Of course. Pikachu is the only Pokémon that truly matters. Guzma: Ya'll are stupid...
My Skarmory dealt with him pretty well... until it died to a team skull grunts Gastly with shadow ball. Yeah that felt bullshit. Unfortunately my resident flying type is now Talonflame, so it's not as useful for Guzma.
Out of all the types, bug types is the only one that is consistently bad (Mediocre at best) and the fact that Game Freak took note of this and made a Leader based on powerful bug types makes me highly respect them for the hustle.
@@questionmarkquestionmarkques I’d say bug types were always either really weak or really strong (heracross, scizor, ya mega, etc) but then from Gen 5 there we’re almost no more “weak” ones
@@TheLateLordKardok I mean, he's not the type to actually kill you though, being death threatened by Giovanni actually sounds more threatening lol, considering Guzma isn't really evil and he really would not kill the Protagonist.
people laugh at how team skull wanted to steal a bus stop but that stuff is so on character with them and the reason why they are probably my favourite bad guys team on the series, not because they are goofs but because of how they portray low criminals, they are a pack of marginalized young people with no hopes or dreams that gave up and turned to crime so they could have goals to pursue, a place to call home, a group to call family, just to get used by powerful elites and serve as their illegal operations team with no consequences for them
"Okay, he's got a lv. 31 Golisopod. It's a bug type, so Trumbeak's got thi-" *Pluck does only a fourth of its HP* Golisopod used Razor Shell! Trumbeak Fainted! "O____0"
Sun and Moon (and USUM) are highly underrated games, in my opinion. They gave us straight bangers for the soundtrack and the character development/plot twists were well executed.
a lot of the music was pretty meh. this song in particular is good, but I can barely remember most of the themes from the game and I was playing it last night
As a huge sm/usum fan ngl a lot of overworld songs did kinda just go over my head and were nothing too special. I liked pretty much every battle theme tho and the handful of overworld songs that did slap, SLAPPED
I really love this guy. And it makes all the more interesting that his Type specialty is Bug. He despises being belittled and despairs in trying to be number one; something about that is almost so relatable... Y'know what, I think words are failing me miserably...
Bruh honestly this was one of the more underrated battle themes- these entire games were underrated and I enjoyed them a thousand times more than I ever did sword and shield
Yeah, S/M and US/UM imo are actually very good pokémon games - yes, way too many unskippeable cutscenes and tutorials, absolutely. Hope any remakes will just make the tutorials optional and the cutscenes skippeable, imo that alone would make the games basically "perfect" (also give us the Glaceon rock at the base of Mount Lanakila you dumb fucks). But aside from that? Imo US/UM has good difficulty, the totem pokémon are an amazing challenge and different to the gym leader stuff, the whole region and everything just *oozes* charm, the UB stuff aside the region and games in general have that whimsical, funny tone (sure the humous can hit or miss, but imo in general it's nice), the characters are imo amazing all throughout, they fixed the Exp. share well (before fucking it up again in Sw/Sh), and Lusamine is a delightfully despicable antagonist (again, UB plot aside which is abit over the top, her treatment of her children being cruel depictions of parental abuse were well-done) and ma boi Guzma is one of the best evil team leaders ever. While I still think gen 4-5 are the best pokémon gens so far and the franchise's zenith, imo gen 7 stands out as another peak among the dumpsterfire that was Kalos (the gen 3 remakes were decent, good even) and whatever the fuck Sw/Sh was supposed to be. Heck, even though I'd say gen 5 might be "objectively" better than gen 7, for me personally gen 7 is my second favourite gen behind gen 4 (Platinum and HG/SS being absolutely amazing and platinum hard-carrying D/P). Heck, I'd say the biggest issue and why gen 6 and 8 are probably the most reviled currently are that they never got third editions or something like B/W 2 or US/UM to fix the issues that always plague the first two games in a gen.
As someone who started in Silver/Johto and therefore is as unbiased as someone can be in this situation. I just want to say that Shield/Sword are just embarrassing by comparison but tbf character and storywise, how does the Pokemon franchise expect to compete with Sun/Moon anyways? Yess SoulSilver & Sun are my favorite core series games in the franchise btw and I've been to every core region minus Scarlet/Violet's so technically this is coming from an experienced "veteran" but ik it's just my opinion, though I highly doubt anyone who didn't start with SwSh and actually played SM would disagree.
I swear, right after that battle i spent a ridiculous amount of time coming up with nicknames for Golisopod. -GODlisopod -Bug Hulk -Cocytus (Overlord) -Hit N' Run -French Tank (hey, it retreats very well) -Squat Lord -Mega Grievous (Star Wars) -Johnny Bravo -Benny (Fire Emblem Fates)
Every time i hear this, I imagine Guzma just putting down a boombox, turning this on, and THEN sending his 'mon out. This sounds straight out of his mix tape.
Others: I like this character for their depth and development across the series. Relatable struggles and flaws that they not only posses, but face and try to overcome and the possible victory of failure only shows more of their character and their enviable decline or success displays their flawed human sides. A person written from the heart of another human being that is relatable and realistic in a way only a masterfully crafted human of evolving emotions could. Me: _ya'll_
Myor B is so badass with his funky ludicolo and his sick beat in Pokémon XD gale of D, he is the true winner because even his Pokémon dance with his rhythm
Tony The Tiger Wait... what? I thought that Derek the Savage would want to stay the heck away from Cool Cat after the backlash he received for the whole IHE incident.
yeah that makes sense cause Bernie sanders wasn't an elective choice and we should've Voted Deez Nutz (yeah someone somehow hacked the Deez Nutz option in) and why? cause Deez Nutz was not going to change anything which would've stopped america from getting any worse
This theme is...perfect. It fits both Guzma and Team Skull perfectly. It’s uncanny how good Game Freak is at not only making excellent music, but also creating that music within a preset, limiting theme
Music is always a constant high note of the games Even the trash heaps that were sword and sheild had that gym theme and the battle tower theme (toby fox theme)
Stupid decisions are removing the national pokedex, removing four types of battles, and making *half* of the possible megastones unobtainable in game. This? This is a nitpick. But still stupid. You can set it as battle tree BGM.
***** It's been removed along with triple, rotation, horde, and inverse battles. Half the Megastones are unobtainable in game as well. People are trying to say these are good things and it mystifies me.
*First time encounter with him* Me: Alright let's see what you're made of Guzma. *Guzma send out Golisopod* Me: Woah, what...what is that? Steel? I...I think I'll use... *Golisopod used First Impression, Critical Hit! Snorlax fainted* Me: *NO SERIOUSLY, WHAT IS THAT?!*
I love Pokémon sun and moon so much, although it’s probably nostalgia speaking since it was the first Pokémon game I played (I was 9 or 10 at the time) it has really good mechanics and the story is great too.
I'd think he'd sound more Mexican/Latino, Plumeria and Guzmas names are based on a flowers found in Mexico/South America and Team Skulls character designs seem to take inspiration from Southern Californian Latino Gangstas. Guzman is a common Mexican surname as well. Notice how he's not as dark as Hau, Hala, or any of the other Native Alolans, and since Alola has a rich and diverse population, it's not far fetched for him be of non-Alolan descent.
Team Skull is the one of the only teams that actually has style. No, Team Flare's hot pants are not 'style' in my book. It has also come to my attention that other teams do indeed have style. My apologies.

Golisopod (Water), Leavannie (Grass), Armaldo (Rock), Volcarona (freakin´ FIRE), (Genesect only maybe, because it´s hard to obtain), Scolipede (Poison), Pinsir (pure Bug, but learns powerful Fighting-moves and has a Flying-oriented Mega), Accelgor (again, pure, but it is speedy), Scizor (Steel), Ninjask (Flying, also it IS speed and arguably the best Baton Pass user in the game), Escavalier (Steel), Galvantula (Electric), Vikavolt (Electric), Ribombee (Fairy), Buzzwole (Fighting Ultra Beast), Pheromosa (ANOTHER Fighting Ultra Beast), in the new Sword&Shield we got Centiskorch (Fire), Frosmoth (Ice) AND Orbeetle (Psychic).

Mixtape Overdrive - Fire Type move. You get all the bitches with your amazin' mistapes, any Pokemon who uses this move becomes 6000 times more badass. Base Power: 420

Mixtape Overdrive is a Z-Move exclusive to Litten.

I firmly believe Guzma carries a boombox around with him and plays this anytime he enters a room or approaches someone.
Oh my gosh yess!
In the team skull car
Grunt: Can we listen to something else then Guzma battle theme?
Guzma: *kicks its grunt*
Based Will If I had a bomb ass theme like this, I'd be blasting it all the time
So true
I got a boombox today, and I'mma do that shit.
Guzma is a bug type specialist - Bug type Pokemon tend to evolve much earlier than most other types in their evolution lines, reaching their maximum power around very low levels, neutering their power later on.
Guzma peaked as a kid, and suffered in his later years because of it, becoming violent, temperamental, and confrontational.
Guzma evolved early, like a bug type.
I feel like his off screen character arc is more akin to his Golisopod. He wasn’t that strong at the beginning of his life, then suddenly got amazingly powerful and beat his dad, then ran away to create Team Skull. He went from not being that strong to incredibly powerful in a very short amount of time, and didn’t know what to do with all that power, so he lashed it out against the people closest to him, never really learning to control it. But, that’s just my interpretation of the character.
Volcarona is the exception that proves the rule.
Guzma was beaten with a golf club by his parents as a child I really feel bad for the guy
He still turned out to be such an amazing character though
Let's not forget that he literally got abused at home.
Anyone would've become mentally unstable after shit they experience at a young age...
@@McNugge. Uh?
Everyone: Bug type sucks, and is weak.
Guzma’s team: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
@daemonicpotato It's pokemon, sure his team sucked but it was story, not competitive
@daemonicpotato Yeah, Guzma was fairly easy in my run but over the years of pokemon the games seem to be getting just a bit easier. They even did red badly in Let's Go.
@daemonicpotato keep in mind guzma failed to become a captain in the context of the story
@daemonicpotato To be fair, Gamefreak has yet to release a pseudo-legendary Bug-type, and Guzma basically was made to be beaten.
...I remember Cynthia. Her Garchomp was on a ridiculously high level, was a pseudo-legendary, had the strongest STAB-moves it could have for its damage type and it was backed up by other strong, type-noncoherent Pokemon with different utilities like Lucario and Spiritomb.
Even if Guzma had somewhat better Pokemon, they´d all need to be Bug-type, be catchable in Alola AND would need to be ridiculously overleveled in order to cover up their inherent weaknesses, as Guzma in these editions does not have the full Bug-type arsenal at his disposal.
I really hope we can challenge him in a future edition, all while he uses the strongest kind of Bug-team with reasonable level and good coverage in movesets.
daemonicpotato
“Y’all are stupid”
I’m in a minority here, but I actually had a harder time in my first match guzma than Cynthia
It took me a few tries to beat her, but that’s because I only had one decently leveled Pokémon. A torterra with giga drain, rock smash, strength, and leaf storm. I was 12
Unlike guzma, she didn’t have the courage to face me in a one on one fight. She hid behind her elite four lackeies, let them wear me down, and then finished off the only decent Pokémon I had. And even then, she only won the first few times because I was low on pp
A decade passes:
I’m wiser, im smarter, I actually UNDERSTAND how Pokémon’s mechanics work
I run into guzma
Keep in mind that my team is fully rested
Two Pokémon? Pfft peace of-
This thing has 140 defense, and a workable 90 special defense
And the same attack stat as friggin GYARADOS
Golisipod FI’s my dartrix into the dirt, and nearly plows through the rest of my decently made team, courtesy of swords dance
All by itself. Despite being about the same level as each individual in my whole team
I only beat it because I overwhelmed it with sheer numbers
Now, to be perfectly fair, i was not prepared for something as bulky as golisopod
If I KNEW he was coming, I could have grabbed a toucannon. But then again, hindsight is always 20/20
Ever since then, both guzma, and golisopod earned my respect
Not gonna lie, Guzma stepping in to help you out during the Rainbow Rocket episode in USUM was one of the things I wanted most from a Pokemon game
The feelings I had when Guzma popped in to help out. I already liked him, but that easily escalated him to my favourite Team Leader.
The fact that he was straight up choking those grunts in every literal sense had me reeling
That's sorta what team yell did in the late game of sword and shield, but yeah, that would've been sick
The fact that ORAS has a Easter egg on that scene
Same it also happened in Sword and Shield too with Piers that was equally as cool
This is the last thing you hear if you trash talk Bug Type Pokemon.
Golisopod used First Impression!
*Golisopod used Good First Impression!
Ever seen a Masquerain be terrifying?
Ever seen a Pinsir flip your Mimikyu's Disguise the bird?
Ever seen an Ariados that's a damn good sweeper?
If your answer is "yes", you've fought Guzma more than twice.
Ugh, I managed to finally kill that damn Golisopod...
*Ariados comes in
Ah, Ariados. I'll just use my strongest move and it's over.
*Ariados tanks my hit
WHAT
*Fell Stinger
*My Pokemon faints
(Ariados' Attack rose drastically!)
OMG
Well it's a good thing one of my strongest Gen 7 pokemon is part bug. Yep, I'm talking Vikavolt.
This man is so strong he made a Masquerain a genuine threat. Think about that for a moment.
I swear that fucking Masquerain had choice scarf, choice specs, king's rock and assault vest equipped at once. outsped even my flying types, did half HP damage to pokémon 5 levels higher than it, tanked said 5 level higher's super effective moves and flinched my team nearly to death because it flinches like 80% of the time.
Like, I have zero problems having problems with water/rock types since I'm doing a mono-fire run, but that fucking Masquerain has no business being such a demon, the only pokémon (aside from Lusamine's Milotic) that I groan at every time I see it.
Reminder that masquerain had an insane stat boost in gen 7 making its special attack go from 80 to 100 and speed 60 to 80 making it significantly faster and stronger. Combine that to the fact that like all of guzma’s mons it’s fully EV’d in 2 stats (here being speed and special attack) and you have a terrific pokemon to face
I swear that idiot masquerain took down my alolan marowak
It’s EV trained iirc, that’s probably why
@@autonomorantula It has 252 Sp. Atk EV's , 252 Speed EV's, 30 IV's in all stats, and a modest nature.
Misty: I can't stand *BUG* Type Pokémon... *I HATE THEM!!*

Note before Sun/Moon no random enemy had EV's. Only facility fights.

You mean Magneton. And he overpowered mine. It took out a few of his team but eventually fell.

I have Decidueye....I kinda want Primarina but the problem is I have Ash-Greninja
Oh thanks
bring it below 50% with a Z move and it activates emergency exit which prevents it from attacking.
Also, be weaker against water than against bug - this should prevent him from using first impression at all (or tank it - it's honestly not THAT hard)
Guzma wrecked me too it was awful I had to give everybody rock type TMs and bring someone who knew stealth rock
He's in Masters, his sync move is called "Your Boy's X-Scissor."
Guzma wields comically large scissors.
And if you have him in the center position, he has a voiced "Yall are stupid" line
Xd that's amazing
@@KingKayro87 YES

Guzma is a good example about how a bugcatcher can be succesfull in life
The creator of Pokemon is an even better one :)
Bugking I think Satoshi didn't mean to re-create that when he made Pokémon
***** I'm well aware, for anyone here interested in Insect culture, the very thing that gave us Pokemon, check out Insectopedia by Hugh Raffles, it's an amazing read in it's own right, and it'll make ya appreciate Pokemon that much more.

Cool, I'm a huge bug enthusiast myself, and it's my favorite book.
Move over, Giovanni. Move over, Ghetsis. The new G on the block is our boy, GUZMA!
Don't you mean move over Lysandre?
truearea53 No.
1. Giovanni also starts with "G".
2. Fuck Lysandre.
Right. And team flare is so lame and weak. Even team skulls can wreck em in less than a minute.
truearea53 Exactly.
+truearea53
Actually, if comparing grunt pokemon team rosters, Team Flare is considerably stronger than Team Skull in virtually every category, as the only evolved pokemon Team Skull grunts use are Golbats and a few rare Haunters (with i think literally one Toxapex somewhere), whilst Team Flare grunts end up having the likes of Golbat, Scrafty, Houndoom, Mightyena, Toxicroak, and Swalot.
This is based roughly in the same part of the games as well when they appear last (Skull grunts prior to the final Trial and Flare grunts prior to reaching the final gym). This can be partially explained by Flare grunts being societal elites with the resources to get stronger rosters while Skull grunts are broke former trial-goers who have to do with cheap, weaker rosters.
First there was Team Rocket, a criminal organization.
Then, Team Magma and Aqua, Magma wanting to destroy all water, and Aqua wanting to flood the planet.
Then there was Team Galactic, who's leader, Cyrus, wanted to destroy the universe, make a new one, and become a god.
Team Plasma wanted to forever seperate humans from Pokemon.
Neo Team Plasma wanted to fuck up an entire city with a legendary dragon.
Team Flare wanted to destroy the planet because it wasn't perfect.
Team Skull wanted to steal a bus stop.
Team skull is the funniest xD i think team galactic is the best.

He use bugs but spits fire too..
somesh kadam I wish he had one lol

Lee Lebensbaum have you heard the bars spit at the Center in po town? Now that's quite the bars.
No if you watched SPINDA SPIN IT, you would know why you trumbeak.
I like how he is different from the other baddies in the series.
Unlike guys like Giovanni or Ghetsis, he was a guy who gave home to societies rejects and "losers" where they united like a family cause they all understood one another.
Him using bug types fits into this as well. Bugs are often rejected and the type ain't exactly seen as strong. But he made bugs a threat and showed their power.
They all look up to him not out of fear or merely common evil mindset but because he is a true boss who took them all in and saw them not as losers but as allies.
He has his quirks but is nonetheless a man who gave hope to countless people even if they were on the wrong path.
Hmm. Intresting
Golden Witch that's why he is the strongest enemy ever ^^
Now THIS is a villain with some meaning behind him.
They still fear him though... because he beats people up.
...and beats people up, and never lets down...
Guzma, upon being greeted by Team Rainbow Rocket:
"Y'all are stupid!"
Quinton Blackburn To be fair, he physically fights those mooks because they ain't worth bringing his pokemon out for. Hell, he's pretty much choking them to near unconciosness while you go through the Rainbow Rocket Paradise.
Lol, I haven't seen this kind of interaction in Pokemon games, where Guzma physically handles the grunts by holding their faces, in a long time.
And I think the last time was never but in the anime.

Honestly, gen 7 feels more richer then gen 8, guzma has made me realize this, he’s just such a great villain character, the music, his personality, all of it is just better then what gen 8 has to offer as of now
Aside from piers, I never really cared too much for team yell
@@daimonicreality1590 Arguably, there wasn't really an evil team in SwSh. Yell was annoying, but it wasn't really an evil team. It was just Marnie's hype group and that's about it. Piers and Marnie were great characters, sure, but Yell just... existed.
@@slightlyuncomfortable idk Team Yell is the most evil group of them all... stans.
Wait, gen 8 has villains?
Guzma is a good character but you shouldn't dismiss 8s characters. They're damn good characters for a pokemon game I'd say. Guzma is better, but 8 has some great characters. Guzma is probably the only character with better music than all of gen 8 in the whole series.... Gen 8 has banger music. 8s characters have good personality too. You are right, but I feel like you're just dismissing gen 8. It wasn't an amazing game, but it was fun. I always prioritize fun.

“Huh... Good job I guess.”
Doesn't he sometimes have a meltdown instead but he criticizes himself? :p
"Geez, Guzma, what are you doing?!"

No, no it would be
"HEY GUYS! Its yo boy Guzma here! We're playing pokemon moon today!"
he would be playing bug monotype if he is a youtuber
YES
He would hack the game to start with a Wimpod, and then go full mono-bug run. And i would watch every second of that run.
First Vid: How to catch Wimpod
Second Vid: How to beat others down
I know i'm late to the party, but here i am.
Guzma is a really lovable character, replaying through USUM though, something was there that I had overlooked previously. A house on Route 2. A man inside of it talks about a boy who left home without a word, and how he would attempt to beat this boy into shape when in the end - he was the one who was beat. Looking more around the house, a child's room filled with second and third place trophies is another big hint as to who this might be, golf clubs that look beaten up and broken are there as well. It soon became obvious that Guzma lived here as a boy, at least that's what I've gathered, and he was beaten by his father(?) until he decided to run away. Man.
Yep! You can even find him there taking his boom box back, and the father was "out" for the day. Guzma was abused as a kid until he ran away, starting Team Skull. Its WHY he started team skull, for people like him. His anger issues are probably a by product of the abuse he took, and he never got that checked out by a professional

Isabella The Great agreed
Isabella The Great i was so surprised when he used this fucking Golisopod at the beginning of First battle hahah
I think Guzma is my favorite for a few reasons:
1) he can go from comical to tHE MOST INTIMIDATING and back to comical in like ten seconds flat and it's amazing
2) most main villains are pansies at the end of the day; Guzma would 100% fight you man-to-man if your pokemon weren't in the way
3) he simultaneously has the least and the most chill in the entire game
4) his sunglasses
5) this song
Kaitlin Martin So, he's a human version of Aku?
The Team Rainbow Rocket episode in USUM makes the second point so true, cause this man was holding back 2 Rocket Grunts in an actual physical confrontaion. Guzma is the best boss.
Kaitlin Martin
Yup! He's the man for the job. Best homie in the history of pokemon!
+David Page True. The closest thing we have to that in USUM is when Guzma says in the RR episode, "I may not be one to talk, but these dudes are stupid!"
Kaitlin Martin do u even english?
Not only does he have the best lines in the series, but he dresses like he’s in the russian mafia/slav squats, and has this kickass theme.
He literally squats at some points mid-fight. All he's missing is a bottle of vodka.
His heels arent on the ground, his slav squat is not perfected

@@fungi265 damn!!!!!
Honestly I breeze thought most of Moon. Best Guzma pretty easily and wasnt impressed at first. But when I reach the main base and chat with the grunts there. I had to second guess everything I was doing. Like no joke, hearing that all of Guzmas grunts were just trainers that failed the trials and were left with nothing, and having this man be a symbol of those lost people, I just couldn't think of this guy as a villain. I mean, he was there when no one else was for a lot of his grunts. How can I beat a man down and not respect him for doing something like that. That's why Guzma is best pokemon game antihero
Yeah he also trains the considered worst type: bug
But His team... Really makes justice to the type.
He's the bad guy, but this doesnt make him a bad guy.

Quinton Blackburn Is he actually competition then even with exp share? cus Lysandre was a joke
+WhiteHole - Media the scalding is bw2 levels
+Andy Blarblar scale
Quinton Blackburn I can live with that just not Lysandre levels
Quinton Blackburn What about personality wise does the music fit him as a character and work well with the encounter theme to get you hyped?
Sun and Moon (and USUM) are highly underrated games, in my opinion. They gave us straight bangers for the soundtrack and the character development/plot twists were well executed.
Most of the overworld themes were forgettable imo
@@SMCwasTaken nah that poni island Exeggutor Island/Route theme is ingraned into my memory forever
@@asprinjuice425 thats why i said "most" because hidden gems like those exist
a lot of the music was pretty meh. this song in particular is good, but I can barely remember most of the themes from the game and I was playing it last night
As a huge sm/usum fan ngl a lot of overworld songs did kinda just go over my head and were nothing too special. I liked pretty much every battle theme tho and the handful of overworld songs that did slap, SLAPPED
When first seeing him: *It's your boy!*
Playing through the post-game: *Damn, I feel sorry for this guy.*
Ya Boy: Ya'll are stupid!
Me: While not inaccurate...
So he is basically evil Professor "Tree"?
Guzma is officially my favourite Pokémon villain. If we don't see him in the anime, I'm gonna be so disappointed.
BlockSquad1000 same here
BlockSquad1000 I want to see what guzma would sound like
Mei The Satan Exactly.
It would be amazing if it was a voice similar to Rick Sanchez in some way, never gonna happen, but would be amazing if it was.
+ThornsOfSerenity oh my god i can totally see "y-yo what's u*urrpp*pppp, it's your boy" Guzma LOL
that would be so great lmfao
I really love this guy. And it makes all the more interesting that his Type specialty is Bug. He despises being belittled and despairs in trying to be number one; something about that is almost so relatable...
Y'know what, I think words are failing me miserably...
I mean, Bug types tend to have the lowest stat totals of all fully evolved Pokemon, so it fits :p
There is Genesect
Aveture
Does bug Archeus count?
I know some people do, but I think because Arceus has to hold an item to become a bug type so it's not a true bug legendary.
Genesect is mythical, not legendary. But still, it's pretty close.

I like how you can hear a bit of the Aether Foundation theme, as a bit of foreshadowing to his ultimate role in the story.
Of course, because his ultimate goal is to be the coolest cat.
Lets be honest Guzma is the bug catcher who vowed vengeance on us in red/blue when we destroyed his caterpie
Bryan Bonilla You're probably not wrong
Bryan Bonilla Hes the true creepy crawler,you thought bug catchers were just pushovers........well.....welcome to alola
I guess you could say that Guzma made a strong First Impression.

Bruh honestly this was one of the more underrated battle themes- these entire games were underrated and I enjoyed them a thousand times more than I ever did sword and shield
Yeah, S/M and US/UM imo are actually very good pokémon games - yes, way too many unskippeable cutscenes and tutorials, absolutely. Hope any remakes will just make the tutorials optional and the cutscenes skippeable, imo that alone would make the games basically "perfect" (also give us the Glaceon rock at the base of Mount Lanakila you dumb fucks).
But aside from that? Imo US/UM has good difficulty, the totem pokémon are an amazing challenge and different to the gym leader stuff, the whole region and everything just *oozes* charm, the UB stuff aside the region and games in general have that whimsical, funny tone (sure the humous can hit or miss, but imo in general it's nice), the characters are imo amazing all throughout, they fixed the Exp. share well (before fucking it up again in Sw/Sh), and Lusamine is a delightfully despicable antagonist (again, UB plot aside which is abit over the top, her treatment of her children being cruel depictions of parental abuse were well-done) and ma boi Guzma is one of the best evil team leaders ever.
While I still think gen 4-5 are the best pokémon gens so far and the franchise's zenith, imo gen 7 stands out as another peak among the dumpsterfire that was Kalos (the gen 3 remakes were decent, good even) and whatever the fuck Sw/Sh was supposed to be.
Heck, even though I'd say gen 5 might be "objectively" better than gen 7, for me personally gen 7 is my second favourite gen behind gen 4 (Platinum and HG/SS being absolutely amazing and platinum hard-carrying D/P).
Heck, I'd say the biggest issue and why gen 6 and 8 are probably the most reviled currently are that they never got third editions or something like B/W 2 or US/UM to fix the issues that always plague the first two games in a gen.
Team skull and Guzma was my first antagonist team and by far in my opinion the best...
As someone who started in Silver/Johto and therefore is as unbiased as someone can be in this situation.
I just want to say that Shield/Sword are just embarrassing by comparison but tbf character and storywise, how does the Pokemon franchise expect to compete with Sun/Moon anyways?
Yess SoulSilver & Sun are my favorite core series games in the franchise btw and I've been to every core region minus Scarlet/Violet's so technically this is coming from an experienced "veteran" but ik it's just my opinion, though I highly doubt anyone who didn't start with SwSh and actually played SM would disagree.
guzma is just one bug catcher who went rogue...
and thats why i love it
Mr Boi
Hahahahahaha you nailed it!
Wasn’t there a bug trainer that had like 6 Wurmples?
He got tired of trainers belittling bug catchers
@@GenshinLover283 it's himmm OMG
An edgy boi.
Guzma: "Wanna see what destruction looks like?"
Me: "Bro this mixtape is already fire."
Both ends dabbing.
Guzma and his fucking District 9 prawn is here to fuck your shit up.

Well, he had to leave a strong First Impression.
Toxic Atom I will accept that pun, A+
^iloveyou
I swear, right after that battle i spent a ridiculous amount of time coming up with nicknames for Golisopod.
-GODlisopod
-Bug Hulk
-Cocytus (Overlord)
-Hit N' Run
-French Tank (hey, it retreats very well)
-Squat Lord
-Mega Grievous (Star Wars)
-Johnny Bravo
-Benny (Fire Emblem Fates)
This is still one of the best Pokemon tracks out there.

Theme so good I asked my mom for a 3ds with Pokémon Moon for my birthday to hear this in game
Every time i hear this, I imagine Guzma just putting down a boombox, turning this on, and THEN sending his 'mon out. This sounds straight out of his mix tape.
Damn it, now I can't get that image out of my head!
Better yet : his battle stance has him carrying that boombox on his shoulder and rocking his head to the beat.
This needs to happen. Plus, the speakers mimick the shape of his glasses.
Declan Brown no this totally happened I won't believe this is a lie
Declan Brown
I can't get that image out of my head now.
Others: I like this character for their depth and development across the series. Relatable struggles and flaws that they not only posses, but face and try to overcome and the possible victory of failure only shows more of their character and their enviable decline or success displays their flawed human sides. A person written from the heart of another human being that is relatable and realistic in a way only a masterfully crafted human of evolving emotions could.
Me: _ya'll_
Me: For both reasons!
Y'all'd've're't

"HELLO THERE! :D"
JustARandomSpy "Oh I don't think so!"
Honestly, can we just have this team back team yell got nothing on team skull
@Kong Jong as much as I loved the story for sword and shield I still think moon and sun had better villains
@Yowatsapp 05 so you just sold your switch because pokemon Sword was shit?! I get selling the game but why the console XD!?
Literally just a bunch of marnie simps trying to slow you down... pretty boring in my opinion
Team yell sucks, team skull is so much better
team yell is every stanbase-
most badass leader of all evil teams so...you gotta love the theme
It's either him or Giovanni. Though Giovanni would sweep him.
Commie The Frog true though i rather focussed on the dedign
+Commie The Frog
But I'm sure *OUR BOY GUZMA* would leave a very memorable.. /First Impression/
Myor B is so badass with his funky ludicolo and his sick beat in Pokémon XD gale of D, he is the true winner because even his Pokémon dance with his rhythm
Shawna Schaefer Cyrus?
When this first played, I thought my left speaker was broken.
'speaker' yeah sure..
***** fuck, sorry about that, i misundertood the definition of 'speaker', my bad
Oh lol. Sorry
Ricardo Soto I thought of some kind of mic to be honest, and it was 3 am..
Bob Thompson When I heard it, I started fiddling with my headphones. I keep forgetting its part if the music. Its still dope doe
Who else got to Guzma's first fight and didnt press anything for like 10 mins just because of the music
The Irish Elite Me. I love Guzma and the theme made me love him even more.
I was listening to this music when you fight him in Po town for almost an hour
The Irish Elite jko
i did.
*raises hand*
The fact that he can make bug Pokémon intimidating just talks volumes about how frickin cool he is.

Reporter: "Guzma, sir, excuse me! What are your thoughts on the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election?!"
Guzma: "Ya'll are stupid."
yeah that makes sense cause Bernie sanders wasn't an elective choice and we should've Voted Deez Nutz (yeah someone somehow hacked the Deez Nutz option in) and why? cause Deez Nutz was not going to change anything which would've stopped america from getting any worse
Deez Nutz was a legitimate candidate bro
Well, who was more stupid? The democrats for choosing literally Hitler, or the Republicans?
The electors for believing those fake news.
the 1,500 people for voting for Harambe for president.
This theme is...perfect. It fits both Guzma and Team Skull perfectly. It’s uncanny how good Game Freak is at not only making excellent music, but also creating that music within a preset, limiting theme
If only they were that good at making games
Music is always a constant high note of the games
Even the trash heaps that were sword and sheild had that gym theme and the battle tower theme (toby fox theme)
Who's ya boi that keeps you running?
Where's ya boi who's really cunning?
Who's here to knock you down again?
It's ya boi...

I hated how he did not have this theme postgame
ZonicX2 amen, I got all hyped to battle him again and then was very disappointed :/
Icy Newbs I thought it was such a stupid decision, same with Faba not having the Aether theme and then they're not able to be rebattled on top of that
Stupid decisions are removing the national pokedex, removing four types of battles, and making *half* of the possible megastones unobtainable in game.
This? This is a nitpick. But still stupid.
You can set it as battle tree BGM.
Well, you can fight Guzma in the battle tree and his theme plays.
*****
It's been removed along with triple, rotation, horde, and inverse battles. Half the Megastones are unobtainable in game as well.
People are trying to say these are good things and it mystifies me.
Plot twist
Guzma is the first bug catcher you run into in Red

Say what you will about sun and moon, you can't deny they had a killer soundtrack
tbh music is one thing that has not dropped in quality since the series started being rushed
I love Pokémon sun and moon so much, although it’s probably nostalgia speaking since it was the first Pokémon game I played (I was 9 or 10 at the time) it has really good mechanics and the story is great too.
@@Korrin69yeah same, i was 11-12 back then and it made my childhood😭

If we don't see my boy Guzma in the anime i'm going to freak
AND I SWEAR IF HIS VOICE ACTOR DOESN'T HAVE A NEW YORKER ACCENT I'M GOING TO QUIT WATCHING POKEMON
I'd think he'd sound more Mexican/Latino, Plumeria and Guzmas names are based on a flowers found in Mexico/South America and Team Skulls character designs seem to take inspiration from Southern Californian Latino Gangstas.
Guzman is a common Mexican surname as well.
Notice how he's not as dark as Hau, Hala, or any of the other Native Alolans, and since Alola has a rich and diverse population, it's not far fetched for him be of non-Alolan descent.
TheWhiteHand I guess you're right. I really want a tough guy accent though because that's how I picture him.
of course he'll be in the anime, Team Skull are (and they're hilarious, also their anime theme is kickass!)
