I have become aware that I hath made some goofs:
1. Hilbert and Hilda are supposed to have the monkey weak to their starter, not strong. It's been so long since I've played BW not-randomized that I got all the monkey matchups mixed up (oooh fun alliteration)
2. Victor and Gloria should have Eternatus, since it's canon that they actually catch it and I CANNOT BELIEVE I FORGOT THIS. It can replace...
3. Boltund. I missed that Hop used one for...one...battle...(dumb Hop changing his team so much lol)
Hoi Micahel im a big fan keep up the good work
Doesn't that then give Victor and Gloria 3 legendaries. That's just REALLY overpowered!
tru that
Daniel Mark I think it was supposed to replace urshifu
The way you were deseperate then this mistakes can be counted.Btw no problem
"What the heck does Silver have?!"
Daddy issues
Ah yes the man that pulled the: Goes out for milk and never comes back
oop
Daddy issue towards Giovanni and sis-con towards Blue. Manga readers would understand.
Yes
I mean ur not wrong
Michael: the protagonist is YOU!
Us: Who could have PREDICTED?
Me: That’s such a hard question! How did he know?!
woah you got hearted
Congratulations I Wish Michael Ever Pinned Me 👍😞
Michael: the protagonist is YOU!!
Me: yeah, no kidding Sherlock. Did you skip every other grade? (BTW I’m jk. This is NOT meant to offend.
Wow you got a hearted comment
Personally I feel like Calem and Serena should have Mega Lucario (due to getting one from Korrina) and Lapras (since you’re given one by a breeder close to Shalour City)
I think absol and altaria should be replaced for both of them
Ture!!
@@sethmartin769*true
I think that calem should have ash's team from the XYZ anime because ash looks like a bootleg version of him so I'd say swap out Pikachu with Xerneas and you got a good team.
What killed me about being gifted a Mega Lucario is that I had literally went out of my way to catch and raise a Riolu I caught super-early in the game.
And suddenly this lady is like "Hey wanna abandon your Lucario to have mine instead?"
Like..... no?
Dude, the Adventures universe is insane. The Unova leaders get crucified, Zinnia is impaled by Rayquaza, I'm pretty sure several protags die, it's crazy
Half of them literally get turned to stone
The adventures manga is basically Pokémon but for people wanting more story. Because dear God, the amount of deaths in the manga are insane.
@@Marblesoda821 there are barely any deaths in the manga actually. The ones i recall are lysandre and malva (debatably at that) and the revived norman, steven and marge (courtney). Every other death was a fakeout (yes even the sliced arbok is alive)
@@Metawire61 Yeah but either way, it doesn't change the fact that the manga has a lot of deaths considering that it's based on a kid series. Also wasn't one of the protags caught in a pokeball or turned into stone? I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure that makes them dead.
@@Marblesoda821 5 protags were petrified, they are now free
1 protag was absorbed into a stone, he is also free.
Again, barely any deaths. This manga is pretty much a below average shonen manga in terms of it's adultry, it's just labeled under a franchise marketed towards kids, pokemon
Personally, I think Ethan should have a shiny Gyrados on his team, mostly to reference the fact that the player would’ve encountered it in the Lake of Rage in the Johto games.
It’s not actually shiny but retained its color through forced evolution
Agreed, not to mention Ethan/Kris/Lyra also get a gift Eevee which could evolve into Umbreon, Dratini, and Tyrogue in addition to the forced Sudowoodo encounter
Totally left our boy CommieChomps out of the running
Lance having it makes more sense as he is literally the champion while you're a 10 year old

Selene's starter is Rowlett in Masters and the manga which makes sense when you consider her name. Selene is an alternate name for the Greek Artemis/Diana who just so happens to be an archer who is heavily associated with the moon.
I personally imagine them as having Rowlet myself, mostly due to the fact that Hau isn't the only trainer affected by your choice of starter, and picking Rowlet just happens to line up to give Kukui the heel wrestler Pokémon... Not to imply any relation between him and that mysterious Masked Royal fella, who said anything about that?
She’s an archer in the manga as well
@@aidanmonaghan5494 no Ellio gets Litten. Taking into account artwork and the original trailer for sun and moon.
@@sethurott9927 I meant in regards to the champion battle at the end of Sun & Moon. Kukui has the last stage of whichever starter neither you or Hau have (being the one super-effective against your starter), hence if the player chose Rowlet, the Kukui has Incineroar, and seeing as he has a wrestler alter ego, it just feels kinda neat.
@@aidanmonaghan5494 what do you mean? Kukui isn’t a wrestler, the only wrestler guy we know is the masked royale, but we don’t know who he is
15:14 I don't know why but I like Barry with Chimchar. His weird monkey dance animation when you fight him in the games just seems to scream "I am a Monkey Boy"

"Since barry is supposed to have the starter that is strong against the protagonist's starter"
Me who continues to one shot empoleon with Close Combat:
Honestly you could argue that infernape hard counters empoleon because it's faster and fighting is strong against steel
@@milesandrews6711 Infernape counters all of them since it can nuke Torterra with Overheat or Fire Blast. I guess this is what it’s be like if Charizard was Dragon type from the start.
@@icantbelieveyoudonethis4059 why would you use overheat on infernape, it's a physical attacker?
Also I'm pretty sure that ground resists fire
@@milesandrews6711 ground doesn’t resist fire and Infernape is a mixed attacker. You’d use Overheat on a physically based mixed attacker
@@icantbelieveyoudonethis4059 Aside from Empoleon, Torterra and Infernape typing can beat the other two. Not sure if they were trying to do that for those starters. Would have been cool if they pulled it off for all three
I think the reason why the female protag for Gen 1 was named "Leaf" as opposed to "Green" was because she was only later included in the Fire Red and Leaf Green versions, so as opposed to simply just calling her Green, as some kind of a reference to her inclusion in the remakes, they went with "Leaf" since the remake was Leaf Green.
I like to think her full name if Green/Blue Leaf.
In my belief, Hilbert and Hilda are separate characters, just in another timeline, with Black being more focused on Hilbert and White being about Hilda. In Black 2 and White 2's postgame, you can return to Nuvema town and talk to the previous protagonist's mother, and depending on the version she mentions a different character gender. In Black 2, she says "You look just like him," but in White 2 she says "You look just like her.". The starters won't change between versions, but the legendaries do. Hilbert will have a Reshiram, and Hilda would have a Zekrom, therefore in the sequels Nate have N's Zekrom and Rosa would have N's Reshiram.
…Uh, not to be that person, but according to Bulbapedia, the “You look just like her” line (with no “you look just like him” line) comes after the BW protagonist’s mother mistakes the B2W2 protagonist for her own child. She says “Huh…? Excuse me! How embarrassing! Mistaking a visitor for my own child! You’re [player name]?” If you say yes, she says, “I knew it, you look just like her,” then talks about the B2W2 protagonist’s mother. (In fact, both other lines referencing her child have her referring to them in gender-neutral terms.)
@@agirlinsearchof9057
Huh... Thought there was a "You look just like him" line. Must've misremembered.
This made me want more to play black and black 2
The Red in G/S and HG/SS seems to be based on Pokémon Yellow's Red, where he's given the three Kanto starters from 3 different NPCs, and his Pikachu, being his highest level Pokémon, was probably his starter
That would make sense, if Green (Blue Eng) didn't lose his starter as a Gym Leader while retaining the rest of his Kanto team. He has no reason to lose his if Red is getting his own via other means, and Gym Leaders can use starters.
Then that would mean Blue should have Eevee
That was debunked in let’s go

Red's team for me will forever be the last battle in SS/HG Pikachu, Venosaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Lapras, and Snorlax all in the lv. 80's. It was so iconic for me. I remember training so much to take him down. I remember using a Gengar to try to counter his Snorlax, but that thing had freaking Shadowball and took me out. My favorite battle ever.
Electric beats half the team.
Reds team need to switch lapras out for alakazam, gengar, or dragonite
For me, I prefer the Pokémon Origins team.
@@jacob2069 i would swap persian for snorlax even if it is slow
@@dyeluke7236that wouldn't make sense
I think it’s alright for Dawn and Barry to both have the same starter. As long as Dawn can get a piplup. It’s mandatory and I will not stand for this
I agree, Dawn did get her starter separately from the suitcase. She says in the games, "If you chose ______, we would've had the same starter!"

Michel: In Lets go red has only veanasaur so I’ll go with that
Michel 10 seconds later: I’m not going too count his Let’s go team because he has some of blues Pokémon, Archanine and Machamp
I always thought Reds team was based on Pokémon Yellow because you get all of those Pokémon in the story in some fashion
Wouldn’t it be the other wat around? The anime debuted before Yellow was released, so I think it’s more likely that turning Pikachu into a starter and then spreading the other three into the world to entice children who already saw Ash having all four at once to follow suit 😊
@@SerDerpish that is what Yellow is
Bulbasaur in Cerulean, Charmander on Route 24, Bulbasaur in Vermillion, Pikachu the starter, the Eevee in Celadon Mansion, the Lapras from the Silph Co. employee, and Snorlax blocking off routes. I guess that explains why they replaced Espeon with Lapras instead of Glaceon for the Hail-immune pokemon. Lapras is more relevant to the story.
Maybe because in the manga. Red was able borrow greens squirtle and blues charmander for the combine powerful something tri type thing to attack the 3 combined legendary birds. If i remember it right🤣
Yeah, yellow is canon.
I always thought Red’s Mt Silver team had all three starters because it was based off of his Yellow personage where you do receive all three of them through various NPC’s
Could also just be that he traded with Blue and Leaf/Green.
By your own story-based logic, I would’ve gone with one of the Hitmons for Red. With it more likely being Hitmonlee since he was seen using it in Origins. And for Victor, I think Eternatus would’ve worked better than Urshifu since you’re story-required to catch it.
Required to catch it but not use it.
I just watched the red timeline and he explains how it's a different universe, so I can definitely see the reason why not to.
That and his team is based on Pokémon yellow
@@gothxm he said if you’re required to catch it it’s on the team🥲
@@gothxmYou’re also allowed to not equip Urshifu if you want
The guy suggests against doing it but you can literally just do it without him and skip so much of it meaning all you need to do is just get him and that’s it you don’t have to use him or anything
Eternatus: hey, I'm a legendary that can be caught in the main story and has to be caught no matter what.
Michael:... But bolt doggo.
I think he just forget
Eternatus doesn’ Exist.

To me, Reds starter will always be Charmander. Pokémon origins really struck me when Red chose Charmander in honor of his father.
Fr
The part where Origins Red mentions his father is one MASSIVE plot hole, as the ONLY protagonist(s) that had a father is Brendan/May, while the rival have Professor Birch as their father, because the player decides which former is the MC, and which latter is the rival.
@@peternguyen7530bro origins was made as a tribute to old fans and to promote mega evolution. So I think it's fine.
@@retrogamer3775 I do know this, I watched Origins long ago, and Origin Red's Mega Charizard X reveal is AWESOME! I'm just saying this as of 2023, where in a few weeks, I'm gonna be 21 years old.
@@peternguyen7530nah mate how tf is he alive then if he doesn't have a father and plus it's just a honor to his father like maybe he was a great dad when he is alive or something and he respects him
crazy how in japan his name Green but he’s been wearing blue since the beginning. also i can only see blue with squirtle/blastoise.
"the protagonist is you"
A horrible decision really
oof
It hurts, but Is true.
A FOOLISH MISCALCULATION!!
The P4 protagonist is Yu
My parents : sweat excessively
Him having all 3 starters & a pikachu perfectly represents Trainer Red from the Pokémon Yellow version of the game.. in this game Trainer Red can obtain all 3 starters as well as Pikachu.. so in my opinion it makes perfect sense he has all of them.
Yes me agrees
Incorrect yellow is different from red and blue
@@Juan_deep what are you talking about? The main protagonist is trainer red & the story is the same.. the only differences is In the available Pokemon
I would replace Mewtwo with Aerodactyl or any of the fossil Pokemon, at least until he beats the Elite 4 and Blue. I say Aerodactyl because they do not overlap with Lapras, he used one in the Manga, and Red needs a flying type.
Him catching mewtwo was iconic yet you decided it shouldn't be there yet is Canon? Sure he a flying type, yet Michael didn't give charizard, mewtwo
Does not need to be replaced
@@doge31981 oh no Im saying that up until after he becomes champion he has Aerodactyl, because he canonically catches Mewtwo after he wins the Indigo League
@@fireypiranha3931 ok
Red having aerodactyl instead of mewtwo would basically be the team I picture red using.
@@doge31981 gengar
Huh, no Lucario on the Kalos protag team?? Weird, that feels like a lock
Yea it does
i think the reason that he didnt choose lucario is because the kalos protag already have 1 pokemon that can mega evolve and adding lucario in their would have a few problems even though you get lucario in pokemon x&y
@@antsteel18 But Mikey gave them mega absol so that's clearly not an issue
Since their team ended up so flexible, I can imagine one of them having Lucario instead of Absol.

@@itsisaiah6784 I’m pretty sure leaf and green are two different people
@@itsmiracle5158 there's no way of proving that
Actually, I think Red more heavily represents Yellow (weird) as you can get all the starters in that game. Also, Pikachu is far more of his ace than the starters, so it makes it a bit more likely.
And his counterpart in the anime is Ash, so that makes even more sense
1:33 i read somewhere that Red's team in that show was the same team the creator of pokemon (Satoshi Tajiri) used to beat the original pokemon game for the first time
Red's Rival when he gets beaten:
*"I'm Blue dabadee dabadie."*

Agent Potater wat
To everyvone: silver STOLE his starter which means he could have simply snatched one from a protagonist
Except we know he stole it from the lab. Given the whole scene when you return and Elm and the Police Officer asks who it was that was the thief. Therefore it can be implied that no one took the Pokemon beforehand, it was taken straight from the lab.
Amber Knight

@@Mychannel-sp6lt Well, his sync pair has him with Ho-Oh, so...
@@bubbykins4864 yes he proved his worthiness and grew as a trainer and become one of the very bests in the world
Actually, Leaf is Green from another timeline because the multiverse exist in Pokemon. I think we should call her "Green" and not "Leaf" anymore because of her last appearance on the game. Also, the manga is not canon so i'm not base on the Manga
If the manga isn't cannon, neither is literally any of the posters and the points from the anime which Mikey used.
@@gamerdude7800 Usually, you're right but we have some exception, like Dawn in BDSP has her anime team ( when you fight against her ). For me, the anime is in another timeline because May (rival) travels with Brendan but also Ash
I like to imagine that in the Let’s Go universe, Leaf is a member of team rocket, (like in the manga), which would explain her all-black outfit and wanting Mewtwo. Best bet is that she got the Mega Stones via stealing them.
@@mecen8 green wasn't a member of team rocket in the manga tho?
@@gamerdude7800 huh. Thought I saw that in one of Mikey’s videos. Guess I was wrong.
Edit: yup, I checked. Remembered wrong, green is a thief in the manga. Works with my theory though, since team rocket does steal.
Well now I want to see you beat the game with each of the protagonists using only the Pokemon you put on their team. Gonna finally hit that subscribe button in hope that this happens.
“Boltund, found on an early route and not used by other main characters”

More goofs include: gift porygon, and bulbasaur/squirtle

Don't sleep on Boltund.

Ryan & Ditto you can’t battle Kyogre with Boltund though
For Florian/Julianna
Skeledirge (due to Florian being portrayed with Fuecoco when facing Grusha)
Perrserker (Gift Galarian Meowth from Mr. Salvatore)
Oinkologne (tutorial gives you the option to catch one, gender can match protagonist)
Koraidon or Miraidon due to version of events
Palafin (I havent seen any major trainer use one)
Great Tusk or Iron Treads depending on version of events (Paradox Pokèmon is a big part of the game so i think using the Paradox titans works well)

Johto protagonists:

Silver: but what do I get
Ho-oh: sup
Silver: *gasp I’m taking it
actually, before he got Ho-Oh he used his Sneasel. As for his starter - it was Totodile. The sync pairs seem to be brought to Pasio from different timelines or points in time, so it's entirely possible that Kris is from a different dimension.
He had also stolen that sneezl. So je shouldn't be wyning
Isaac Leillhikar je?
@@woopsloops7382 He*

Counter argument for Ethan from HGSS. There is actually a perfect amount of gift/storyline pokemon for him to have.
- Typlosion (it’s canon that Ethan chooses cyndaquil as shown by the semi-recent music video)
- Togekiss (gift egg)
- Dragonite (from dragon den dratini)
- Eevee that turns into espeon or umbreon (gift from Bill)
- Sudowudo (the one you have to encounter to get past goldenrod)
- Red Gyrados (from the Lake of Rage)
Edit: yes I understand Ethan is also shown with tyranitar and ampharos in the music video, I’m basing this team off of the most relevant pokes you encounter in game, if you really like you can sub dragonite for tyranitar
I agree with you pal
v i c t o r y s c r e e e c h
I like that, but Lance is seen with red gyrados as well
*-Dragonite (from Dragon User Challenge Gift Dratini in Dragon's Den in Blackthorn City)

@@hakasehakase only in the anime tho
On Elio/Selene’s team, Dusk Lycanroc would be replaced with Midday Lycanroc in the Sun and Moon version of events since Dusk Lycanroc is exclusive to the Ultra games. It’d be Midday as opposed to Midnight form, as they have another Sun exclusive in Ninetales, which you could replace with Sandslash if you wanted Lunala and Midnight Lycanroc for a Moon version team.
That was kind of a long comment. I hope it makes sense.
Tbh Elio over Powered bro gets Solgaleo and Nercrozma
I think Red should have a Flareon because Espeon wasn't available till Gen 2 and it would give him a type he doesn't have on the team
Actually, in the manga Lyra isn’t even there( it’s just kris dressed like Lyra) and kris gets meganium. You could make the argument that kris is Lyra and vice versa, leaving room for feraligatr for silver.
i thought he was going to pretend Lyra and Kris are the same person
Yeeeaaaahhhh
Or just let lyra start with marill as the npc friend. She doesn't need a starter because she already has a pokemon likely given to her by her grandparents, leaving the other 2 for silver and kris who need them more

@@pn2294 I like the idea of having both, but I prefer Latias over Latios, but no shade to Latios
@@person5975 who would have what?
The reason there’s depictions of Red with only a Charizard is because the Pokémon company likes it more (2 megas and a Gigantamax at launch), so sometimes they try to retcon his Venusaur.
I don’t have proof of this, I’m just basing it off the fact that all the stuff where he only has a Charizard came out much later.
Yeah this makes sense. I’ve noticed gamefreak prefer to pair Red with Venusaur and the Pokémon company prefer paring him with Charizard. It’s 100% marketing
It's in the fing name red like fire and the fire startee
Somehow I imagine building Serena's team based on the Pokemons she has in the anime. While she didn't have six on her during the course of the storyline, the three she had were pretty type diverse and solid, and we can fill out the rest with Pokemons that might have some sort of connection to her. Therefore, this is what I believe Serena's team should be:
Delphox (her starter fully evolved), Sylveon and Pangoro (as seen in the anime) and the other three are possibly:
1. Rhyperior (her mother trained her to be a Rhyhorn racer, despite not liking the sport, she would have access to Rhyhorns back home and it's possible that she has a Rhyperior on her battle team)
2. Talonflame (we can see her mother's fletchling waking her up in the beginning of X&Y so we can probably assume that there are a lot of them where she lived and possibly catching one for her team)
3. Klefki (because of her whole thing with contests)
4. and last, Politoed/Poliwrath (this one is a bit more creative but since she was startled by a Poliwag right before her and Ash met for the first time, she might thank the little creature for having her meet her future love interest, and possibly keeping one for her team)
As you can tell, I was bored but that's just my opinion.

@@aguywithalotofopinions412 Venusaur was always the starter that more fits red personality i think, cause like, Venusaur is a slow powerfull tank and in the games red is this silent and reclusive trainer who slowly defeats everyone, exacly like a slow unstopabble tank.

@@its_saber1525 These days you can only be given those five during the main game, and in the post game you can breed a couple of your Pokemon so you can trade for your final member you don't need to catch: a starter pokemon you didn't pick from Shauna
@Nawfel Nuhin I stand corrected, you can totally beat X and Y without catching anything, using event Pokemon, or breeding while still having a full team
Another reason for Red having all 3 kanto starters: He played Yellow.
I mean... He DOES have an unevolved pikachu
When it comes to main series he chooses charziard that's y his name red and blue chooses water and leaf chooses grass this guy doesn't have brain
@@hydra3007 Yeah maybe, but originally in Japan the rival was Green and the girl is Blue, so picking starters specifically based on their names becomes weird because of different localizations
@@hydra3007 Aparentley, that's just an Origin thing (But it became more popular and Iconic for Red to have his Charizard), in the Adventure Manga he has a starter Poliwrath, in the other Manga I think he has a Venusar, Leaf a Blastoise and Blue a Charizard. But I personally like Red with a Charizard as his starter
@@hydra3007 that doesn't make sense though, you see in japan "blue" is "green" so if what your saying is true that would mean your rival would have venusaur but that would be impossible unless the female was the main protagonist and as you may know, red is the protagonist
10:26 also there's a call from Ethan/Lyra in HeartGold and SoulSilver where Ethan/Lyra literally says that he/she saw his/her Marill evolve
3:43 Red picks charmander, blue picks squirtle. Blue asks red to fight him and red ignores him first, but then blue says who ever wins get to keep the third starter. Red wins and refuses to take bulbasaur at first, but when he delivers oak's parcel, oak forces red to take bulbasaur
I'm surprised that you don't notice the reasoning for Red having Arcanine and Machamp in Let's Go.
Let's Go takes places before the other games when he's a boss battle, so he's simply yet to trade for the other two starters at this point. As for who he trades with, it's Blue.
Blue has Charizard, and also Tauros (a Pokémon he's not usually shown with). So Blue presumably trades Green for her Blastoise, giving her his Tauros. Then Red trades his Machamp and Arcanine to Blue in exchange for the other two starters, giving both him and Blue the exact teams we later see them with. It's a really cool detail.
Nice name and comment
That makes sense
Actually no bc lets go isnt cannon and red nor blue are champion but mew two is still in the cave and blue is mentioned to be strong
Yeet very correct
Anthony Jose Angeles that’s what I said he said it’s not cannon but they said it takes place before the other games but you can’t place it before any other games bc when talking about the timeline it doesn’t exist
“Ethan can talk to Lyra and vice versa, but only one them ends up defeating Red.”
Anyone who lost the battle- ‘Sweats nervously’
I'm going to go with Ethan because he was the only option in the original Gold and Silver
@@JadenT_VA wait I thought Chris was the female counter part there and then got replaced by Lyra in Crystal
@@yeon_ster Chris was only in Crystal. Gold and Silver had no female option.
2:23 the adventures Manga is definitely weird in places, and much more mature than any other universe, but it is all derived from the games (ok, maybe not Zapmolcuno and the whole Gold/silver/Crystal Mask of Ice arc) and in fact the series creator has endorsed this series, stating it is "the comic that most resembles the world I was trying to convey".
I always find it a little weird when the anime is put on a pedestal and treated as near canonical, while stuff like this, which is more accurate to the core series, gets ignored.
I think giving Red Mewtwo is a stretch since yeah he catches it but who says he actually uses it I like the last one being poliwrath since it's such a big part of reds backstory in the manga.
13:56 May having Blaziken makes sense, with its type advantage over Sceptile.
As does the reverse.
Agree
What does type advantage have to do with anything? Just asking
@@kingofmoney6165 traditionally, the rival character would always pick the starter with the type advantage over yours. However, if May picked Mudkip, then Brendan would be the rival instead of the player, so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
I bet when Michael is on his deathbed PokeMoses will come and say:
Greetings Pokéfans
PokeMoses is watching above you all for thou may have been blessed with a shiny
I always assumed static encounters where considered cannon as its a mutual experience across games
Red having Venusaur is really annoying to me. But I get why you did it.
“Boltund is not used by other main characters...”
* sad route 7 hop noises *
Copy
Doggo go woof woof my homie
I mean you could replace Boltund with either Venasour or Blastoise considering that they are both gift Pokémon on the isle of Armor
"I'm not going to take the manga into account for this video"
Proceeds to talk about the manga a lot throughout the video xD
as much*
was what he said.
I think the Kalos protag would have a Lucario, after all it’s a gift pokemon that is shoved pretty directly in you’re face, other gift mons include Lapras and Flibebe (although that’s post-game)
It must be the version of events where you say no and it just stands there waiting for you to come back for the entire game, and I’m not sorry about it either.
I always loved pokemon and I love your videos man! Me and my kids watch them together! Keep up amazing content!
I really loved the emphasis on '*YVELTAL*' making a reference to pokemon talk.
Hes said it so many times
Mukesh Kumar it’s not even a reference at this point it’s just a thing on his channel lol
Yaveltal
Yes, cause he's never done that before, nope not Mikey, nada
Me: *Waits for Snom*
Michael: No Snom
**Quietly fumes**
Same for me, but replace Snom with Weezing.
Frostmoth: *cries in corner*
You cannot defeat Regis we are Regis!
Snom is too powerful. If a protagonist had Snom and Zacian/Zamazenta they'd be too strong. That's why he didn't include it.
@@kirin1230 Makes sense. If Victor or Gloria had Snom on their team, we would've faced World Snomination centuries ago. Even PokeTips knew Snom's strength, which is why he's still using it to dominate Leon over and over again.
Barry needs infernape and Lucas needs tortera they all fit the looks
Just watched this video and now starting an emerald play through with this team!! This is going to be fun!!!!
You should have given Mega Lucario to the Kalos Protagonists.
Feels like the Gen 6 protags should have the Lucario that’s literally thrust upon you by Corrina
If Mikey ever does another video like this like 3 years in the future I bet he is going to have a lot of fun trying to make Juliana and Florian's teams.
They don't appear anywhere except as your character, they aren't depicted with specific starters most often, from what little there is to go off, they don't seem like they'll appear in the anime, hell, they don't technically even look the same most of the time! Plus, I don't know how accurate this is, but I poked around and the only gift pokemon in S/V seems to be Galarian Meowth? And its an optional side thing in the game. So basically, the only set pokemon they ever get are the unknown starter and the legendary.
Imagine he just went through every conceivable team you could ever have, and the video was 100 hours long.😂
4:58
Mikey: ... let's go Red...
Game Freak: Write that down! Write that down!
he means red that shows in pokemon let's go
Me: hey umm game freak if you’re going to keep making re makes of games don’t you think you should maybe do something other then Kanto? Like it’s getting to the point where at this rate we may end up having more kanto games then all the other regions I mean if you’re going to make the re makes kanto doesn’t need the updates other games like dis.....

While I agree on Venasure for Red's starter. I'll forever go with Charizard for Red's starter.
Same
It doesn't really makes sense to me because red has always been associated with Charizard more like when he chooses bulbasaur in the manga and have a Venusaur in let's go is the only times he were ever associated with Venusaur but with Charizard he literally was always with him in the main series, spin off games, and even on the animes multiple times.
@@arielgardiana6715 And it would be very interesting for Red to have Blastoise.
@@arielgardiana6715 Well, in the main series he's depicted with Charizard *and* Venusaur *and* Blastoise *and* Pikachu, so that argument doesn't really work. He never appears in the anime - only Pokemon Origins, which shows him with Charizard but also is only one continuity, so it doesn't count as 'multiple times' either, it's just one instance. And in the Spin-Off games he's depicted with Venusaur, in the Let's Go games, and... none of them in Colosseum. Even in Smash Bros, he's shown with all three starters. There really isn't much pointing to Charizard as his definitive choice across all media outside of "Charizard is the most popular" and "orange/fire type is closest to the colour red". Hell, in my opinion there's more of an argument to be made that *Pikachu* from Pokemon Yellow is his 'canon' starter than with Charizard.
His starter had to have been pikachu
Pedro Araujo on RUclips has what I consider to be the actual canonical version of red. Very much worth the watch
Please do an updated version of this!
"lucas doesn't have a team outside of the main games"
Pokemon manga, where he has multiple pokemon with the starter being turtwig: am i a joke to you?
@Owen Wheeler probably because of that ugly hat lol.
Lucas starter in the manga isn't turtwig... His starter is a munchlax.. He just gets the turtwig a lot before munchlax
I mean... Dia technically isn’t the same as Lucas, ( since the manga isn’t in the same world as the games) but yeah, he’s probably the closest your gonna get to finding out what Lucas’ team is.
He said earlier in the video that he wasn't gonna be taking the manga into account as much due to it being so wildly different.
Can't you battle him in platinum
Michael: Says a bunch of stuff about Green and Leaf being the same people
Me: Green and Leaf, Leaf and Green, Leaf... Green...
*HOLD UP*
I like your Ash Greninja profile picture
I like yo cut G
If one of the game is Fire Red and the male protagonist is Red, it's fair that the female is called Green in my opinion
@@sylvyboi He ignored Fire.
15:54 for platinum events instead of magmortar have togekiss for the togepi egg
The real reason why red has all the starters is because it shows his bond with Pokémon as the starter is usually the one you bond with the most. Also he completed the Pokédex so it is possible for him to have them.
If Silver got Ho-oh than that means he surpassed Giovanni
Its probably cause of Pokemon Stadium 2. He had Ho-oh, Lugia AND Mewtwo
In the manga he got a tododile but in adventures they gave him ho oh because they added lyra instead of just kris
If I were to change Red's team, I would replace Mewtwo with Aerodactyl so that his manga team is at least not ignored and so that it will be less crazy.
yeah i agree, i dont like having legendaries on protagonists teams
The only legendaries I would like to be canon for the protaganists are the Gen 5 ones since they are so essential to the protaganists themselves. And the Tao duo have a history of being comanded and aiding trainers many times in the past.
@@revolvingworld2676 Actually, speaking of them, I came up with teams for each of the Unova Protagonists except 4 Nate, cos there's only 3 starters.
Hilbert: Samurott, Simisear, Mightyena, Braviary, Musharna, Zekrom
Hilda: Emboar, Simisage, Haxorus, Mandibuzz, Reuniclus, Stunfisk (Unova)
Rosa: Serperior, Simipour, Delibird, Accelgor, N's Zoroark, N's Reshiram
@@revolvingworld2676 the irony of this with the manga since although Black had reshiram in his back pocket i would bet money that even if Black was able to wake up reshiram before the pokemon league started he would never use it for such a personal purpose.
Yknow... it would make alot more sense to say that red's team is based off of a playthrough of pokemon yellow, since all of his pokemon are gift pokemon you recieve in pokemon yellow, other than the snorlax which is a static encounter, the fact that the team he uses in hgss is the team he uses most often is a good indication of this
4:08 But that would be unprecedented. I'd be interested in seeing the pairing of Charizard's 'rivals.'
We need a part 2 for the “Which Pokémon version should YOU pick”
Black/White:
Black VE:
Sawk
Braviary
Gothitelle
Tornadus
Reshiram
White VE:
Reuniclus
Throh
Mandibuzz
Zekrom
Sawk > Throh
Mandibuzz < Braviary
Gothitelle < Reuniclus
Reshiram = Zekrom
For Reshiram, good against N's Vanniluxe, Klinklang, Ghetsis' Bisharp,
For Zekrom, good against N's Carracosta, Archeops.

"but, i've decided to give her blaziken."
another day swampert, another day
In the manga, Ruby (Brendan) literally has a Swampert
@Gamey Firebro I mean, torchic is literally what most female trainers pick
@Gamey Firebro Brendan with Mega Latios?
Also for Eleo and Selene you could have used either other fossil Pokémon rather then Aero, they still overlap with the team but with Blastoise instead of Charizard but they’re encountered more often
Elio and Selene do not show up anywhere else.
Elio being in masters with popplio has left the chat.

@@hitesh9431 how is that fair-👁️👄👁️
maybe because he picked the starter almost know one picked for Red xd
@@leandromendoza5835 lol no, Charizard might be the most loved mon but Red's Venusaur is the official correct choice. Also, Venusaur(/bulbasaur) is probably the most loved grass type in all of pokemon.
In my playthroughs I always thought "canon teams" would consist of Gift Pokemon, Fossil Pokemon, forced encounters like Sudowoodo and Snorlax, and occasionally purchasable Pokemon like Magikarp or Game Corner Pokemon.
for unova, i personally went with bianca, cherin, and MC's personalities the most. snivey is regal and it seemed to suit cheren's academic personality. then tepig being overexcitable suited bianca. that left oshawott's energetic personality to the protagonist. perhaps not the most lore-accurate but it feels right in my head. especially the opening sequence where bianca claims tepig impatiently and cheren just goes "wtv i wanted snivy anyways". it mirrored the personality of the pokemon perfectly 😄
