Ash getting Riolu was truly a monumental moment. Lucario from day one looked like the Pokemon built for Ash and it was so great to finally get one. Also love the use of Aura and the continuity of Ash's strong connection to it. They could've just left it in Movie 8 but they didn't and I'm all the happier for it.
I do admit, Ash's team for Journey surprise me. I expected him to catch only Galar Pokémon, but I'm surprised to see him catch Pokémon from past generations. From Dragonite, to Gengar, to now having a Lucario. And I'm not even upset about it, this new team if Ash in this series is awesome!
I always like the part where Pikachu started to feel neglected/jealous when Ash was focused on using Riolu more. I’m not sure why but I always find that funny. Anyway, like you said Prof., this capture is long overdue and I’m finally glad it happened. They even went the extra mile to give it a Mega Evolution despite being removed in Sword and Shield, mad props for that. I really enjoy this session and I can’t wait to cover Lucario. Thanks!
Riolu has that weird position as a coveted Pokémon but only after he evolves. He was also received as an egg in Gen IV, hard to get in Gen V, mostly ignored in Gen VI since the player is GIVEN a Lucario fairly early and is a post-game find in Gen VII.
in the anime, there should be a part where ash brings back some of his pokemon and reuniting with his released ones like primeape pidgeot goodra greninja and maybe even catch larvitar who might be a full frown tyranitar
While I can imagine most of them eventually returning, I'm pretty sure that his Pidgeot was canonically released at the end of it's last appearance. I know that there are many fans who want to see it return one day, but it's mostly because Ash promising to one day come back for it in the English dub only. I'm also not really sure how to feel about Ash's Primeape, since he barely got to own it before giving it to a different trainer after it's first major episode since it's capture. To me, it seems like Primeape was mostly an afterthought, since there is no other Pokemon that appeared in so few episodes or that got as little focus as it did, even though there was probably a good bit more they could've done with it for the brief time Ash owned it
You know Riolu was solidified as a good partner for Ash when Pikachu gets jealous. Don't recall him ever being jealous of the other Pokemon on his team. If anything we've seen his other Pokemon jealous of him.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver we're actually make sense it's well you have to watch the entire alola series were route in and that might be a huge budget increase and also a little bit of copyright issues
@@GhostBoyJames you have come on AKA sirfetch also no homo yeah that would make for an interesting episode but also there's a tiny problem there's copyright issues to deal with believe me and I could be the end for his channel so would rather be safer than sorry
I feel like the centralization on Riolu since it was caught was both great but also not great. Since the rest of Ash's team was fully evolved and powerful already, Riolu was to have since he had to work hard to get stronger. Where the cracks show is that it's just Riolu who develops so he was taking up all this space and leaving none for the others. Even when Ash got another preevolved Pokemon, Riolu still took center stage.
I definitely wish Ash had more evolutions this season. He really only had two and then GMax/Mega if you want to count those too. Evolution arcs always add so much characterization to his Pokemon
Riolu was obviously a fan-favorite of mine I loved it so much that I used it for my team in Pokemon Diamond, Pokemon X, Pokemon Omega Ruby, Pokemon Sun, Pokemon Ultra Moon, Pokemon Sword, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Legends: Arceus
Also, it was thanks to this awesome arc of a story, as well as a certain gym leader's return and flashback during the rematch against Bea and the many abilities that Aura had throughout Journeys, that kinda helped influence a certain choice of mine for another fan-fic of mine I wrote recently. I won't go into specifics here to spoil it, but it's rather interesting... And it makes sense in a way when you think about it...
This Pokémon is the definition of fan service. Since Lucario debuted everyone wanted Ash to get one so when he finally got that Riolu egg it was only a matter of time until it evolved. I took over a decade but here we are.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Yeah it was very different. Finally caught a ghost and psychic Pokémon. Dragonite and Gengar were two of the popular Gen 1 evolved Pokémon and it was nice to see him take his moms mr mime.
Loved it! I'm looking forward to seeing the complete history of Ash's Sceptile on here someday now that Charizard, Greninja and Infernape are all done. Also complete history of Squishy!!
Ever since Sinnoh I Always wanted ash to take that Aura sphere Riolu but it wanted to be with his owner basically and that was fine since it wanted to go home but now my wish finally came and now it’s one of ashes first mega evolution Pokémon!
It's a top 4 Pokemon movie for me.. The first two are too nostalgiac for me to judge properly, and I'm in the minority on thinking I Choose You was fantastic
Aside from Pikachu, Lucario has been an absolute mascot in this franchise; being a playable character in Smash Bros roster, having it's own featured movie, appearing in the video games, and actually being part of Ash's team
It’s hilarious to me that everyone is saying that Lucario is the next Ash-Greninja because of its Aura Bond. As much as I think Lucario is cool, he will never replace Greninja. Besides, the Bond Phenomenon will forever be superior and the Aura Bind has nothing on it. Besides, it’s confirmed that Greninja will return in Pokémon Journeys!!
It's tough for anyone to compete with Greninja because of the animation of XY imo. the battles are just too epic and the scenes too cool. As much as I love Charizard, for example, he can't even compete with Infernape in terms of quality fights
I would love to see Ash’s Gliscor history! Gliscor is one of my favorite Pokémon and I personally remember Ash’s Gliscor as a great Pokémon with tons of personality and power to him!
I LOVE that Ash has a Lucario now, especially armed with Mega Evolution. I'm just waiting for it to learn how to use Bone Rush. But I can't help but think it was a missed opportunity for Ash to capture that wild Onix after getting beat by Riolu.
Hester I just started watching Pokémon journey and I allready finished all of sun and moon series the day before that. Not Much to say about riolu on ashes team but I can’t wait to see it evolve into lucario and I think it’s great that ash has that Pokémon added to his team as well as gengar dragonite and a few others. I look forward to watching more videos like these In the future and I’ll watch some past videos that I missed when I get the chance some other time because I have other stuff going on but I’ll get their. Good work professor have a good day!. 😊✌️
Imagine a battle with all "gimmicks" allowed in the anime like Z-moves, megas, and gigantimax. Would love to see Ash use Mega Lucario, GMAX Gengar, and 10,000,000 volt thunderbolt in one battle. just as well to add in Battle Bond Greninja and Blaze Infernape while we're at it :)
Lucario is a newcomer character in Super Smash Bros Brawl along with Diddy Kong, Ike, King Dedede, Lucas, Meta Knight, Olimar, Pit, Pokemon Trainer (Charizard/Ivysaur/Squirtle), R.O.B., Snake, Sonic, Toon Link, Wario, Wolf and Zero Suit Samus.
Btw Alex... heh... have you ever done a video on like say..... The History of Ash's Dusk Form Lycanroc? Cause man.... out of all of Ash's Pokémon.... one still can't forget that it was *THE* Pokémon that finally had him won an official Pokémon League based on a main series region after 22 long years! :D
I thought it was fitting that Ash ended up getting a Riolu especially since the theories about him being related to Riley and Sir Aaron (from the Lucario movie.)
Sir Aaron is a Bloodliner who lived thousands of years ago in what is now the Duchy of Rota. He is an ancestor of Ash and Delia, and who Ash inherited one of his Bloodlines from.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver that informations kinda new to us lol back then a month ago that wasn’t known lol but infernape trained with all his fire types who weren’t aces lol
This guy is hyped man, no offense I loved it when they finally gave ash a riolu but man, this guy is hyped like he overshadowed Sirfetch'd. The problem with journeys, to much thing going on
I wanted to do Gengar for Halloween while Riolu/Farfetch'd are fun workarounds as I'm only covering their specific pre-evolved arcs. I'll probably do more Journeys-based video essays content in the future as it's a lot more topical/relevant
Hi Professor. I was hoping you might do a video on Delia’s Mr. Mime, Nurse Joys Chancey, Officer Jennys Growlithe and cerulean gyms Seel/Dewgong. I really hope you consider it. Have a wonderful weekend.
Ash has several pokemon that could potentially use mega evolution. Ash's Charizard for example would be a great fit for using mega evolution. I also wanted to add that several of Ash's pokemon have potential to mega evolution. Gengar, Heracross, Sceptile, Glalie, and of Course Charizard are Ash's Current pokemon that could mega evolution. Ash already has a mega Lucario. Potential in the future if Ash's pokemon bulbasaur evolves in Venusaur, Squirtle evolves in Blastoise, Gible evolves into Garchomp, and if Ash still had his Pidgeot could mega evolution.
Wish they elaborated on why he refused to ash Yea I know they were destined to meet but I’d like to know more Like how in johto we found out about things that happened to larvitar while it was still in the egg yet I wouldn’t mind something similar to riolu maybe one day
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Yeah. I really think they wanted Sir Aaron in the movie to be Ash's Ancestor, but they ended up going with Riley from the games since they look extremely similar
I think Ash’s Riolu was good and I’m looking for to when you tackle it as Lucario and I feel it was a misted opportunity back In DP we’re Ash wasn’t given a Riolu Egg by Riley when he doe give one to the Player in the Games and can you do Buizel next.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver oh ok since there are more episodes to come I suspect when they get released in English language Lucario will get a major update on this
Lucario is ahs' first time having a mega evolution then just ash greninja and since journeys is in galar and and it is in sword and sheild why is mega lucario there even tho they remove mega evolutions
Hi, Professor. Your content is great. Quite informative, insightful and engaging. I’m a young Italian subtitler and I was wondering if you could be interested in having your videos subtitled into Italian. I know there are a lot of people here who like your content and just need a small help to understand it better🙂
@@ProfessorAlexSilver so teach,maybe riolu is enemies with squid/octopus pokemon,or probably hates squid/octopus pokemon and opened a seafood octopus/squid-only restaurant

Hi
Ash's Sceptile
Next one should be Ash's Quilava
Could you pls do professor oak's Pokémon
Ash's Melmetal
Ash getting Riolu was truly a monumental moment. Lucario from day one looked like the Pokemon built for Ash and it was so great to finally get one. Also love the use of Aura and the continuity of Ash's strong connection to it. They could've just left it in Movie 8 but they didn't and I'm all the happier for it.
Couldn't agree more!
I know. I think it’s gotten to the point that if pokemon was completely remade Riolu would most likely take Pikachus place as Ash first pokemon.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Why ???
I do admit, Ash's team for Journey surprise me. I expected him to catch only Galar Pokémon, but I'm surprised to see him catch Pokémon from past generations. From Dragonite, to Gengar, to now having a Lucario.
And I'm not even upset about it, this new team if Ash in this series is awesome!
Huge surprise as well -- it does a feel bit strange how few Galarian pokemon got spotlight
I really wanted him to get a Rookidee and evolve it into Corviknight
He only caught S1 pokemon :( after 10 years :(
@@ArtIsDrawing what about lucario, sirfetchd and dracovish
@@kanchansahay8547 Tbf he was gifted riolu and dracovish and sirfetch’d was caught as a farfetch’d
I always knew that Riolu would be a perfect fit to Ash's team especially after it has evolved into Lucario too.
Here's to some more awesome wins :)
Yes I agree with you ❤
I always like the part where Pikachu started to feel neglected/jealous when Ash was focused on using Riolu more. I’m not sure why but I always find that funny. Anyway, like you said Prof., this capture is long overdue and I’m finally glad it happened. They even went the extra mile to give it a Mega Evolution despite being removed in Sword and Shield, mad props for that. I really enjoy this session and I can’t wait to cover Lucario. Thanks!
It reminded me of how bad I feel for Bayleef. If Pikachu was jealous I can only imagine how she feels
@@ProfessorAlexSilver wan history on Bayleef. Real Gf of Ash😂
Riolu has that weird position as a coveted Pokémon but only after he evolves. He was also received as an egg in Gen IV, hard to get in Gen V, mostly ignored in Gen VI since the player is GIVEN a Lucario fairly early and is a post-game find in Gen VII.
Even more coveted with Mega Evolution :)
Riolu's not that hard to get in Gen V. Well depending on which game you mean.
in the anime, there should be a part where ash brings back some of his pokemon and reuniting with his released ones like primeape pidgeot goodra greninja and maybe even catch larvitar who might be a full frown tyranitar
I'd love to see that!
While I can imagine most of them eventually returning, I'm pretty sure that his Pidgeot was canonically released at the end of it's last appearance. I know that there are many fans who want to see it return one day, but it's mostly because Ash promising to one day come back for it in the English dub only.
I'm also not really sure how to feel about Ash's Primeape, since he barely got to own it before giving it to a different trainer after it's first major episode since it's capture. To me, it seems like Primeape was mostly an afterthought, since there is no other Pokemon that appeared in so few episodes or that got as little focus as it did, even though there was probably a good bit more they could've done with it for the brief time Ash owned it
I think greninja returned in ultimate journeys (I wouldn’t know because it hasn’t come out in Netflix yet)
After so long Ash finally get's the Pokemon he deserves.
Yup :) Dragonite & Gengar too!
You know Riolu was solidified as a good partner for Ash when Pikachu gets jealous. Don't recall him ever being jealous of the other Pokemon on his team. If anything we've seen his other Pokemon jealous of him.
I felt bad for Pikachu, but I'm sure the rest of Ash's Pokemon feel that jealousy ALL the time
The Complete History of Ash's Rowlet next please.
Some day !
@@ProfessorAlexSilver we're actually make sense it's well you have to watch the entire alola series were route in and that might be a huge budget increase and also a little bit of copyright issues
####TeamRowlet
I second that. Ash’s Rowlet would make for a fun episode.
@@GhostBoyJames you have come on AKA sirfetch also no homo yeah that would make for an interesting episode but also there's a tiny problem there's copyright issues to deal with believe me and I could be the end for his channel so would rather be safer than sorry
I feel like the centralization on Riolu since it was caught was both great but also not great. Since the rest of Ash's team was fully evolved and powerful already, Riolu was to have since he had to work hard to get stronger. Where the cracks show is that it's just Riolu who develops so he was taking up all this space and leaving none for the others.

I definitely wish Ash had more evolutions this season. He really only had two and then GMax/Mega if you want to count those too. Evolution arcs always add so much characterization to his Pokemon

Riolu was obviously a fan-favorite of mine
I loved it so much that I used it for my team in Pokemon Diamond, Pokemon X, Pokemon Omega Ruby, Pokemon Sun, Pokemon Ultra Moon, Pokemon Sword, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Legends: Arceus
That's a lot of Riolu XD

@@ProfessorAlexSilver oh that too!
we can add being the only pokemon on record beating cynthia’s garchomp now
One of the greatest accomplishments in the history of the anime
Riolu was really ready to throw hands with everything in sight minutes after being born!
That's the sign of a true warrior :D
so long as riolu knows he can never replace pikachu
All he has to do is ask Charizard, Infernape & Greninja how their storylines ended
Remember the movie, Lucario and the Mystery of Mew?
It's a top 4 Pokemon movie for me.. The first two are too nostalgiac for me to judge properly, and I'm in the minority on thinking I Choose You was fantastic
Aside from Pikachu, Lucario has been an absolute mascot in this franchise; being a playable character in Smash Bros roster, having it's own featured movie, appearing in the video games, and actually being part of Ash's team

More like Chloe yelled at Ash and Riolu for making Pikachu feel abandoned
Yes, Chloe actually scolded Ash after Pikachu ran off
I LOVE that Ash has a Lucario now, especially armed with Mega Evolution. I'm just waiting for it to learn how to use Bone Rush. But I can't help but think it was a missed opportunity for Ash to capture that wild Onix after getting beat by Riolu.
Maybe Goh will catch it some day XD
every important lucario except for kukui's has had bone rush

Not Ash's. His knows Double Team,
Reversal, Aura Sphere & Steel Beam
@@rainbowpegacornstudios Right either way over half of the lucarios weve seen so far have bone rush. the first was Riley's
@@bigmonke3348
Fair point. Korinna's was the most brutal usage of Bone Rush, the way it nearly killed Pikachu before and after Mega Evolving.
Great summary of ash's riolu ! My idea is his gengar next , it has a purpose and high strength in special attacking.
I covered Gengar's early history, I think you'll dig it! I intend to cover the latter half some day :)
Lucario is the perfect Pokémon for me and Ash ❤. This is very cool and amazing 🤩

15 longs years I still can’t believe it finally happened 🙂🙂
So many expectations finally validated :)
@@ProfessorAlexSilver yeah and in the recent Pokémon magazine there’s a greninja in it could our boy finally be coming back

i bought a plushie of him today and I have no idea who he is, but he looks really cool and strong. nice
That's great! I hope it's still fluffy
Who would've known mega Lucario would defeat Cynthia's Garchomp?
And that was after it had to survive the onslaught of a Dynamax Togekiss then take it out.
The show was filled with surprises, I never would've guessed it :)
Ash's team in Journeys is very unique and versatile. Riolu/Lucario is one of my favorites.

Yes 🙌 I want to see a complete history of Ash’s Lucario next time since his Riolu had evolved into Lucario please.
Some time!
You got your wish today
I like that Riolu beat Copperajah and Ferrothorn.

Fan theory: people believe Rilou is the reincarnated of Sir Aaron's lucario.
People will believe that
I believe it :)
You should do ash's goodra next. It's one of my favourite ash ketchum pokemon.
I'll definitely get to it at some point :)
It think dragonite is the ace of journeys or maybe I'm just a bit biased. Maybe next episode will be dragonite's?
Let's hope! It still needs a major victory after Iris
Ash has several pokemon that could potentially use mega evolution. Ash's Charizard for example would be a great fit for using mega evolution.
I also wanted to add that several of Ash's pokemon have potential to mega evolution.
Gengar, Heracross, Sceptile, Glalie, and of Course Charizard are Ash's Current pokemon that could mega evolution. Ash already has a mega Lucario.
Potential in the future if Ash's pokemon bulbasaur evolves in Venusaur, Squirtle evolves in Blastoise, Gible evolves into Garchomp, and if Ash still had his Pidgeot could mega evolution.
I'd love to see that happen
Who's here after the Ash vs Cynthia Battle?
Technically, I'm still here after it ;)

Lots of octopuses and squids in this one 🤣
Now this video was pretty dope and I really enjoyed it
Appreciate it! Next one soon :)
Whats you guys favorite fighting type
My is heracurs
Hmm Heracross, Breloom or Farfetch'd most likely
And now Ash' base form Lucario has beaten gigantamax duraludon
he's a beast :)
I bet something crazy is gonna happen and Ash is going to release Lucario to protect something or whatever.
Let's hope not haha
I’m just glad that Ash didn’t release Lucario.

Love it haha
Heh, nice. Even more because female Lucarios are very rare. I don't think the anime ever showed a Lucario that wasn't male.
They set up Ash having a Lucario for so long
And I honestly believe they wanted him to have one since Lucario and the Mystery of Mew
Yup! Surprised they finally followed thorugh on it
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Yeah. I really think they wanted Sir Aaron in the movie to be Ash's Ancestor, but they ended up going with Riley from the games since they look extremely similar

Can we all agree Vacuum Wave is the baby form of Aura Sphere lol
That's why it was replaced by aura sphere ha
I've been waiting for Ash to get his own Lucario since movie 8. The writers made us waiting for 15 years, those bastards
Bit too long imo. I dig Lucario but he would've been better in sinnoh
I wonder if Ash had to make a full team with just his ace's
Who's he picking?
Pikachu, Charizard, Sceptile, and Greninja, and Infernape are definitely in his group
Infernape Charizard Pikachu Greninja Snorlax Bulbasaur ;)
Pikachu
Charizard
Sceptile
Infernape
Krookodile
Dragonite
Why are this & Ash's Lucario separated into Different videos?
Lucario is ahs' first time having a mega evolution then just ash greninja and since journeys is in galar and and it is in sword and sheild why is mega lucario there even tho they remove mega evolutions
Anime sometimes diverges heavily from the games :)
its a lucario now and has been for some time
This video is on his time as a Riolu
Can you do one of these videos on ash's dracovish
on the list@
So Riolu is a special Pokemon that can't be caught by any trainer but it has to be a person it shares aura with
Just like Froakie :)
@@ProfessorAlexSilver interesting, I love Riolu and Lucario 🤩
Hi, Professor. Your content is great. Quite informative, insightful and engaging. I’m a young Italian subtitler and I was wondering if you could be interested in having your videos subtitled into Italian. I know there are a lot of people here who like your content and just need a small help to understand it better🙂
Hey, thanks! I don't have a budget for subtitles right now, but maybe in the future!
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Don’t hesitate to reach out should you need them in the future🙂
i just realized that the majority of riolu's losses were octopus/squid pokemon.
And almost all were ash's fault too
@@ProfessorAlexSilver so teach,maybe riolu is enemies with squid/octopus pokemon,or probably hates squid/octopus pokemon and opened a seafood octopus/squid-only restaurant
So Vermillion City's Nurse Joy gave Ash a Thunder Stone, and a Riolu Egg whi h has became 1 of Ash's most Powerful Pokemon? Nurse Joy the true MVP!
She's quite the help :D
