@ScatteredBrainChild he's just a funny guy who is a bit dumb, no need to read too much into it I think he's funny and I got more answers right than any of them lol
also acting like pokemon isn't the biggest franchise in the world and that not knowing every bit and piece of it (unlike the other 3 neurodivergents in this video) is some sort of plot to "milk money off children" is mad weird this isn't some niche fandom that suddenly just exploded, we're talking about pokemon, even the 90 years old people know what a pikachu is (roughly) no need to act like a 16 years old boy in the early 2010s harassing a girl just because she said she liked pokemon and didn't know all 500 of them from memory
You know what would be a cool idea? Doing this again but with questions based on specific themes (shinies, pokemon lore, pokemon competitive, rare pokemon facts, pokedex entries, etc) and make the contestants choose a cathegory and everyone has to answer. That would add an strategy aspect for the contestants to be able to choose cathegories that will either help them or that they think will be harder for a specific player. Bonus points for the player if they actually guess correctly.
Pokémon Jeopardy is on RUclips! If I recall correctly it’s currently done by a RUclipsr called Chimpact? Or something like that , will update once I finish the vid. (I hope I’m not too late for this comment haha) The contestants range from Pokémon Showdown RUclipsrs to other smaller Poketubers too!
My understanding of the Entei movie is that the little girl was experiencing so much grief that the unown wanted to make her feel better and using hidden power brings her imagination to life creating the 3 legends her father told her about. Entei decides to take on a father's protective role over the little girl because she believes Entei is her father.
My understanding was the girl found the Unown after the father disappeared, and whether she intended to of not, they responded to her wishes, and her conscious wants shaped the world around her. This is why her little Pokemon were so strong, instead of the Unown giving her Pokemon that just were strong.
@@raymonholt69 I really don't remember. I remember the scene with the father reading the book. I remember the girl wandering her house and stumbling across a box Then I remember Entei kidnapping someone causing Ash and his friends to run into a tower where the girl was an adult
@@velvetbutterfly I remember a crystal tower forming like a maze around everyone because it needed to protect the girl and eventually either Entei or the unown or the little girl understands she can't live trapped inside that crystal prison and Entei piggybacks everyone out by breaking through.

AND MAD RESPECT FOR LOVING GEN 2'S ART!! It's at this spot where they're still trying their best to convey the shape and form of these monsters with meticulously placed cross-hatching pixels and a more capable color palette. It's like right before the anime made an impact on it and made all subsequent titles take a more cel-shaded look, which doesn't look nearly as impressive as the designs in Gen 2 for a pixel artist.

"X and Y were Weenie Hut Jr difficulty" the most spot-on description of Kalos I've heard. 💀My first games were Alpha Sapphire and Y, and I'm proud of myself for knowing the answer to the third question was Diantha. Just playing Alpha Sapphire and Steven's battle and then playing Y and looking at Diantha's team compared to Steven's like "WHY IS YOUR TEAM LIKE THIS?" while still clapping her team like nothing. As easy as Kalos was, it makes up for with the introduction of Mega Evolution, the region's history with AZ's story, the anime (of course), and the region's aesthetic. I enjoyed just sitting on a bench in Snowbelle City while relaxing to the music. Not to mention the design of the Pokémon League building in Kalos is absolutely *ELITE* , and they are aware of it by putting a photo spot in front of it. But as someone who lives in "Unova", it also makes me proud that Gen 5 has the most. I love Gen 5 because since I live in the NYC metro, I look at locations and be like "Hey, I know what this is based off of!" Regarding Alder, his highest-leveled Pokémon when he's restored as Champion is Volcarona at level 77.
Gen 6 would benefit so much from a high quality remake. Give it a good long development period, in house, lots of support, and show us the Kalos we all knew we could have had
Seeing Alpharad listed as a Poketuber feels like listing Guy Fieri as a professional marriage officiant. Like yes, they've filled the role at times, but not enough that it feels right to say that's what they ARE when you look at what they usually do and are primarily known for.
You know, with the way the question is worded, Purplecliffe was technically correct, since Samson Oak is called Professor Oak at least once in the Gen 7 games. You know, cuz he's also a Pokémon Professor. You never specified that it was the one that lives in Kanto in the original question, so both Samson and Samuel are correct answers, they just refer to different characters who are both called Professor Oak.
I got too excited when the Aegislash entry came up. I screamed the answer instantly. Scared my cat. I don’t recall any of the dex entries but that one made sense to me and was confused that not all 4 answered that.
i know an interesting thing about "but the names were localized" thing being said at around 31:10 !! thanks to the french localization team for red/blue being interviewed a few years back, we know they originally WEREN'T supposed to be localized. the names were supposed to be the same across board, because nintendo wanted to 1) prioritize brand homogeneity, and 2) didn't want to spend more money in case the games didn't work in the west. while this is from the french team, they did mention in the interview that ALL localization teams at the time were fighting against nintendo on this. nintendo really didn't see a point in doing it but the teams just pushed them, a main argument being that what sounds cool or cute in japanese wouldn't sound that way to western audiences and also that westerners being able to understand the names would drive up sales. we know nintendo was especially annoying about not wanting to change the legendary birds' names (freezer, thunder, and fire) to "articodin", "electhor", and "sulfura" (using the french names here because idk if they made the same kind of stink about it in english) but the "it wouldn't sound as cool" argument eventually made them agree to it. all in all the localization teams were given like, a week to translate all the original 151 names. so it makes sense, knowing this, that the beta names were changed from NY and LA. because they weren't planning on localizing the names at all!
@@frostmint3584 french Pokémon names are awesome, all of them. They make a lot of sense and are often super smart! The localisation team really did a good job
When Cliffs gave his answer for the original koffing and weezing names i started dying bc tight after Cj said the question i said out loud the same thing Cliffs gave as answers 😂
I'm glad I got the champion question right. I haven't fought Alder in a long time, but I knew that his first fight was technically post game so it'd be higher level.
I went with Diantha, because I wasn't sure if Alder would have counted. And I knew that while Red and Cynthia have the highest (not sure if that's true after gen 6, admittedly) level Pokemon, you never face Red as the champion and both instances happen outside of the champion battles.
@@NicolasClark7732 Cynthia and Red still have the highest level mons(In Cynthia's case your rematches against her) though Cynthia is harder since she got a full competitive team whereas Red has only 1 mon with an item and it's light orb Pikachu
Me and my friend like to do this, where we ask each other random Pokemon questions (I'm normally the one answering) and it's pretty fun. Especially when you get into full arguments over what a certain ability does.
This was so much fun!!! Loved the energy between everyone I laughed so much. Also as a self-proclaimed gen 5 buff™ getting all the gen 5 answers right (except the poke studios one..... Whoops) felt very validating lmao. A super entertaining video!!! (also, the yellow suit does look great. Big fan :D)
What you have to remember about X and Y is that even though it feels like weenie hut junior, it's because the xp scaling in that game is insane. Diantha was my guess because I knew I was the highest level for the elite 4 of any game in X/Y.
19:00 to be fair, the Unown kidnapped her dad, then were shown to be way more powerful than they actually were by bending reality to the girl's imagination. Since she had been told stories about Entei and her father ran with it to help put her to bed, the phantom Entei in the movie accepted the role of being her father. At the very end of the movie, her father was returned to the ruins he was exploring and we never hear another thing about him or his daughter ever again in the series despite their family being friends with Ash's mom.
True, but I have Gen 2 (original Gold/Silver/Crystal) as one of the worst gens due it’s awful pokemon distribution, level curve, pacing, and the shitty excuse of a team rocket story that consisted of mind numbing waves of team rocket grunts and then they just immediately give up. They were revolutionary for their time but don’t hold up well
when purplecliffe is there you'd think from how many shiny randomizer fails he's had that he'd have learned something but nope he's still the cynthia, gardevoir, and lopunny lover we all know
To be fair about the ??? type, it's been removed from the games since Gen 5 - Curse is now Ghost - but "currently" wasn't included in the typed question, only what you said out loud, so I'd say props to them for considering it lol
@@spookyscarylamppost3431 Burn Up *removes* the Pokemon's Fire typing, making the Pokemon _typeless,_ It doesn't replace the Fire Type with the ??? type. So by technicality based on the framing of the question, Typeless wouldn't qualify as a Type.
I spend way too much time in pokestar studios, it's been 10 years and I instantly recognized and remembered the stories of the titles when he mentioned them
I have played more Gen 5 than any other game and I have never once noticed that every single Pokémon from that Gen is unique to its predecessors That's actually really cool and only makes me appreciate the game more
I like how CJ said the Pokestar Studios one would've been hard and that was one of the few up to that point I knew instantly (after he give the choices).
@@itssoclover # 0001 Yeah Pokestar wasn't too bad as a side thing. I only hate it because it was mandatory to do in order to progress they story. Same with Join Avenue.
14:45 I somehow knew that was Gold's Girafarig entry specifically. Probably because I played that game to death as a kid. I missed most of the other ones, though lmao.
the funniest part of guessing Red Fog of Terror as the fake one is that not only is it real, it was also what i remember to be the most traumatic part of Pokemon B2W2. i mean, to be fair i started playing it when i was like 7 (or _maybe_ 9, i cant remember), but still
I've never played black and white, but when the pokestar question came up I guessed "magical knight because that sounds boring and generic" and somehow got it right lol.
I guessed it because I remembered the giant woman, memers use Invaders to mess with people who never played the node, and Red Fog of Terror just sounded more like a movie
For the "Whose that pokemon" it could have been like a close up picture of a part of the pokemon to make it a little challenging but pretty fair if you've seen them

i got 24/207 and ive only played since gen 5
i failed the pokemon #0 one i thought it was missingno
Finding out mimikyu ranked higher than pikachu in a popularity poll made me irrationally happy.
I got too excited when the Aegislash entry came up. I screamed the answer instantly. Scared my cat. I don’t recall any of the dex entries but that one made sense to me and was confused that not all 4 answered that.
i know an interesting thing about "but the names were localized" thing being said at around 31:10 !!
thanks to the french localization team for red/blue being interviewed a few years back, we know they originally WEREN'T supposed to be localized. the names were supposed to be the same across board, because nintendo wanted to 1) prioritize brand homogeneity, and 2) didn't want to spend more money in case the games didn't work in the west. while this is from the french team, they did mention in the interview that ALL localization teams at the time were fighting against nintendo on this.
nintendo really didn't see a point in doing it but the teams just pushed them, a main argument being that what sounds cool or cute in japanese wouldn't sound that way to western audiences and also that westerners being able to understand the names would drive up sales. we know nintendo was especially annoying about not wanting to change the legendary birds' names (freezer, thunder, and fire) to "articodin", "electhor", and "sulfura" (using the french names here because idk if they made the same kind of stink about it in english) but the "it wouldn't sound as cool" argument eventually made them agree to it. all in all the localization teams were given like, a week to translate all the original 151 names.
so it makes sense, knowing this, that the beta names were changed from NY and LA. because they weren't planning on localizing the names at all!
I would find it funny to see Galarian LA because of the previous naming scheme of referencing polluted cities.
@@iantaakalla8180 It would become Liverpool or sth
Bro french bird named are lit af
@@trubica Galarian NY would just be Y
@@frostmint3584 french Pokémon names are awesome, all of them. They make a lot of sense and are often super smart! The localisation team really did a good job
Aegislash also gets the signature move King’s Shield, so the fact 75% of the contestants got it wrong is crazy
I thought it was either zekrom or reshiram because of that story with the chosen hero. but yeah 'king' should've tipped me off
I immediately thought Aegislash but was like there's no way that's right, right?
tbf I guessed Floette because of the AZ plotline
I honestly thought of falinks
I thought it was Zacian
At 37:26 Cliffe’s points are the European date for of a specific day
When Cliffs gave his answer for the original koffing and weezing names i started dying bc tight after Cj said the question i said out loud the same thing Cliffs gave as answers 😂
I'm glad I got the champion question right. I haven't fought Alder in a long time, but I knew that his first fight was technically post game so it'd be higher level.
I went with Diantha, because I wasn't sure if Alder would have counted. And I knew that while Red and Cynthia have the highest (not sure if that's true after gen 6, admittedly) level Pokemon, you never face Red as the champion and both instances happen outside of the champion battles.
@@NicolasClark7732 Cynthia and Red still have the highest level mons(In Cynthia's case your rematches against her) though Cynthia is harder since she got a full competitive team whereas Red has only 1 mon with an item and it's light orb Pikachu
27:23 the idea of ash beginning his adventures with a ho-oh is amazing lmao
14:37 Jan is such a savage. Making Cliffe the butt of all jokes here.
I love how Jan doesn't even care, he is quiet as fuck, I bet doing a nuzlocke in the background.
Jack is literally just happy to be there. I have never seen him struggle that hard on ANYTHING.
name a purple Pokemon
@@batteryman_cezory jumpluff
cliffe putting magneton after reading "mini-noses" is just so fitting and so freaking funny
There’s playing dumb, there’s actually being dumb, and then there’s whatever is going on on Cliff’s head
The fact that his favourite gen is 2 after having made almost every single question about gen 5 is such a mixup
Jan doing the ad read at the end was perfect
ah yes, i remember having jangmo-hugo on my first sun/moon team. good times...
I don’t usually watch long videos but this was so entertaining. Keep up the good work
Me and my friend like to do this, where we ask each other random Pokemon questions (I'm normally the one answering) and it's pretty fun. Especially when you get into full arguments over what a certain ability does.
"What does Illuminate do"
The one mf who only plays showdown:
They forgot to add a point for Jacob when he was sitting at 6 points, so Jacob won with a lead of 2.9999999 more points than Pokemon Challenges.
I didn't know alpha and cliff would have such synergy!
i like how this looks like one of those "which one doesn't belong" things we used to do in school
Cliffes answer for the Kommo-o questions had me on the floor omg
"What does prehistoric mean???"
"BEFORE HISTORY!"
This was so much fun!!! Loved the energy between everyone I laughed so much. Also as a self-proclaimed gen 5 buff™ getting all the gen 5 answers right (except the poke studios one..... Whoops) felt very validating lmao. A super entertaining video!!!
(also, the yellow suit does look great. Big fan :D)
i knew that the Knight was fake bc i played through pokestar studios literally the day before I watched this 😆
13:32 “Almost everyone got it right.”
Jack, a look of horror spreading across his face:
29:57 this was the exact moment Cliffe snapped.
What you have to remember about X and Y is that even though it feels like weenie hut junior, it's because the xp scaling in that game is insane. Diantha was my guess because I knew I was the highest level for the elite 4 of any game in X/Y.
19:58 There are technically 20 types, with the bird type in generation 1, which is only on glitch Pokémon such as missingno.
There's more glitch types as well, if you wanna count those
Bird type is functionally the same as flying type so it's only really different in name
@@alexandergordon648 it's not, though. It has no weaknesses, resistances, or immunities, hence why you can use ground-type moves on Missingno.
im prett sure theres limitless amount of glitch types all with their own resistances and weaknesses?
19:00 to be fair, the Unown kidnapped her dad, then were shown to be way more powerful than they actually were by bending reality to the girl's imagination. Since she had been told stories about Entei and her father ran with it to help put her to bed, the phantom Entei in the movie accepted the role of being her father.
At the very end of the movie, her father was returned to the ruins he was exploring and we never hear another thing about him or his daughter ever again in the series despite their family being friends with Ash's mom.
Everyone being baffled at PurpleCliff’s stupidity is beautiful.
I got 16.5. The half point comes from Jigglypuff from above. I felt like I deserved half a point for that extremely obligatory and needed answer.
At this point I am almost sure that Jaiden is actually an AI pretending to be a human with a cartoon representation.
Let’s go dude, another appreciator of gen 2! I love the artwork as well, it’s the best palette and sprites
True, but I have Gen 2 (original Gold/Silver/Crystal) as one of the worst gens due it’s awful pokemon distribution, level curve, pacing, and the shitty excuse of a team rocket story that consisted of mind numbing waves of team rocket grunts and then they just immediately give up. They were revolutionary for their time but don’t hold up well
That purplecliffe made himself laugh way more than anyone else
I love the trivia videos! I hope you get the opportunity to host more in the future~
My brain went straight to Tyrantrum for the Aerodactyl dex entry. Got most of the rest right though, so I'm happy.
when purplecliffe is there you'd think from how many shiny randomizer fails he's had that he'd have learned something but nope he's still the cynthia, gardevoir, and lopunny lover we all know
we definitely need more of these kinds of videos.
This was so fun and funny to watch 😆 CJ always comes through with the bangers
To be fair about the ??? type, it's been removed from the games since Gen 5 - Curse is now Ghost - but "currently" wasn't included in the typed question, only what you said out loud, so I'd say props to them for considering it lol
I imidiatley thought of shadow Pokémon too, since he didn’t say currently
There was the unused "Bird" type in Gen 1 as well, though I hadn't even thought of "Shadow" and now I'm kicking myself.
Wouldn’t the affect of burn up count as a ??? type?
@@spookyscarylamppost3431 Burn Up *removes* the Pokemon's Fire typing, making the Pokemon _typeless,_ It doesn't replace the Fire Type with the ??? type. So by technicality based on the framing of the question, Typeless wouldn't qualify as a Type.
You can still use it if you eliminate Arcanine fire type with a move that burns your type
this was extremely fun to watch! great people
i love this so much cjya we need more of this
I spend way too much time in pokestar studios, it's been 10 years and I instantly recognized and remembered the stories of the titles when he mentioned them
Yeah me too lol, I remember trying to 100% it since I had the hardcover guidebook, still do actually
34:50 i spat EVERYWHERE, CJ not knowing who Bong Joon-Ho is made it even funnier lmao
I have played more Gen 5 than any other game and I have never once noticed that every single Pokémon from that Gen is unique to its predecessors
That's actually really cool and only makes me appreciate the game more
It was really cool that they filmed little trivia scenes to play between ads
I like how CJ said the Pokestar Studios one would've been hard and that was one of the few up to that point I knew instantly (after he give the choices).
the real answer is none because pokestar studios isnt in black and white its in the sequels
@@pikminman13 I was thinking the same thing
every time a youtube video mentions pokestar studios i feel like i’m the only one who actually played it lol
@@itssoclover # 0001 Yeah Pokestar wasn't too bad as a side thing. I only hate it because it was mandatory to do in order to progress they story. Same with Join Avenue.
14:45 I somehow knew that was Gold's Girafarig entry specifically. Probably because I played that game to death as a kid. I missed most of the other ones, though lmao.
Even g2 is my favorite, I could picture it but couldn't for the life of me remember the name
the funniest part of guessing Red Fog of Terror as the fake one is that not only is it real, it was also what i remember to be the most traumatic part of Pokemon B2W2. i mean, to be fair i started playing it when i was like 7 (or _maybe_ 9, i cant remember), but still
I actually LIKED PokeStar Studios, so I recognized it IMMEDIATELY
"Hey, do you know the Pokémon Slugma?"
"What's a Pokémon?"
"Slugma balls!"
That's the kind of energy the awkward moment at 33:05 radiates
I've never played black and white, but when the pokestar question came up I guessed "magical knight because that sounds boring and generic" and somehow got it right lol.
I guessed it because I remembered the giant woman, memers use Invaders to mess with people who never played the node, and Red Fog of Terror just sounded more like a movie
I love these videos, so charming and fun. Plus love the visuals & suit upgrade from the last quiz!
This quiz was absolute fun loved it haha.
This is literally the only time that my extensive knowledge of all things Pokemon has come in useful. I knew the answer to almost every question
OMFG I love the host, love the show, love the participants and love everything about this video!
For the "Whose that pokemon" it could have been like a close up picture of a part of the pokemon to make it a little challenging but pretty fair if you've seen them
I watched this a while back, but I’m not sure if I ever commented this upon a rewatch but getting “Masterball Guy” was my crowning achievement.
The Sun and moon anime really helps with some of the dex entries
This was tons ot fun. Loved it, all host and guests.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, I would love more collabs with these guys!
I immediately got the Victini question bc it was one of the only event pokemon I got as a kid lolll. I LOVED that Victini lolll
Honestly these sorts of videos are so validating. I should've become a Poketuber.
