- On February 27th 1996, Japanese gamers were introduced to two new titles that would change their lives forever.

I cannot fathom the mystery dungeon games being THAT low.
I agree. They should be higher in my opinion.
Explorers of Sky is a masterpiece. Great gameplay, great story, great music, but that gummi grind is painful.
@@sloppyslush9858 Gummi grind? I don't understand. I always sold the gummies....
Why? They are boring repetitive and don’t play well.
@@nathanhargenrader645 well my comment clearly didn't get 30 likes for nothing, people including myself completely disagree and think they're a great time the whole way through.
Putting crystal, emerald and black 2 so low is criminal. They have by far the most content of any pokemon game.
The pokemon world tournament for b/w 2, the second map for Crystal, the battle frontier, etc..
It feels like the reviewers haven't played those games.
That's what happens when you sort a series based on review scores while removing the review context around the game.
It's because when they make the list by sorting review scores, it will reflect poorly on the third games which reviewers were reviewing solely by additional content. The third part of these games are objectively better, but the review scores don't reflect that because it's only the additional content that gets reviewed in them.
Spoiler: they mostly hadn't
They have no idea what they're talking about and this list is hilariously bad.
Less is more
Audibly gasped when emerald was that low
I'm baffled by the fact that 3rd game refreshes like Emerald and Crystal are below the games they updated and improved
It's because when they make the list by sorting review scores, it will reflect poorly on the third games were reviewed solely on additional content. The third part of these games are objectively better, but the review scores don't reflect that because it's only the additional content that gets reviewed in them.
@@FeiFongWang I totally get how they did it, the fact that they did it like that is the baffling part because it's very very flawed. They put DP over Platinum, that should have told them off the bat it was a garbage system
Yeah it's a bad system and I'm not sure why they keep doing it this way tbh. It gets comments though, so I guess that's something 😅
@@decegreaseproblem is, by that logic, Red and Blue should be much lower because by all accounts every other main line version is an upgrade. This list gives credit to the games that originally introduced content. Meaning the remakes/3rd instalments have to be held againts the improvements they make on the original and not what they "stole" from it.
@@KaiserHanstedt no, I'm talking about revisions of the same game, not sequels. Nobody is saying SW/SH are #2 because they're 2nd most recent.
Emerald is OBJECTIVELY better than Ruby and Sapphire and Platinum is OBJECTIVELY better than Diamond and Pearl, they're the same game with more/better content and balancing, tweaks, etc.
People keep explaining how they graded it, by only including the new content, but I'll repeat what I said in my last comment: it's a very flawed system that doesn't give credit where credit is due, if you're going to do a retrospective list you need to consider the fact that nobody in their right mind doesn't play the 3rd version of these games today. The system they used to judge this has issues if Diamond and Pearl are above Platinum, plain and simple
Gale of Darkness being so low on the list is so insane to me, thats a top ten game
Ranking the explorers games that low should be a crime. They are incredible games, Explorers of Sky happens to be in my top 5 favorite games of all time.
Imo Explorers of sky is literally the best pokemon game ever made spinoff or otherwise.
People just do not appreciate Mystery Dungeon games :(
Agreed! I’m pretty stunned to see it this low.
Any of you guys over 28?

What about ranking the best side scrolling beat em ups? I saw a comment here mentioning the xmen games and immediately thought of z”Xmen welcome to die!” The Simpson had a pretty good one, TMNT, golden axe, streets of rage, battletoads and so on
The disrespect to emerald and platinum is wild
B-b-but muh 151! I swear, this video looks like been made by someone who have no clue what they are speaking about, and just know that Gen oners exist, and want to appeal to them. So many in top 20 deserved to be in the bottom half of the list, and vice versa.
AND CRYSTAL! WTF!
@@Alexpazaroni Crystal is good, yes, but HeartGold and SoulSilver have almost everything, if not everything that Crystal offered, and also made everything else better. While Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire were also really good, but they changed too much. While Dimming Pearl and Dunce Diamond were embarrassments, and Platinum is my favourite Pokemon game. Silver then Ruby were my favourite prior, and I loved those remakes.
Especially platinum. Diamond and Pearl were very bad when they came out. So many problems, yet Platinum is the reason why people like Gen 4. If they had done a Z version for gen 6 it would be the same. But the reviews are a bit weird.
@@artur24able I agree, I have been using this video to fall asleep but today I have insomnia and this is outrageous
Explorers of Sky being below Cafe Remix is a war crime.
Agreed, especially given cafe is a overglorified ap game like what
A major flaw of this list is putting the premium versions of the games (Crystal, Emerald, Platinum) behind the original pairs in their generations. It's widely agreed upon by fans that the premium versions are better. They never sold as well because most gamers already had played the original versions and the premium games just don't really offer enough to justify buying essentially the same game again.
But if you've never played Gen 2, play Crystal. If you've never played Gen 3, play Emerald. If you've never played Gen 4, for God's sake play Platinum.
Emerald and Platinum are the best Pokemon games. Just a fact.
amen, i would also put black/white 2 to the best mainline titles.
@@ohana_j4n I haven't played them, but I've heard they're solid.
No lol wtf silver and gold and crystal are way better
@@boydriceisawesome2520 hard disagree on that one.
@@mscottjohnson3424 emerald a great game though i agree platinum i forgot lol
Oh yeah! Here we go! Pocket Monster time!
I've played a Pocket Monster game before, but I've never watched Pocket monsters, so I'm going to give this everything I've got!
if you die at the hands of pokemon go, you probably weren't going to be long for the world anyway
Well deserved
TBF some of it was people distracted behind the wheel hitting pedestrians etc; not exactly the victims' faults.
Well pedestrian should not cross the street looking at their phone either!
@@boydriceisawesome2520 You completely misread what I said.
@@chrisjfinlay explain then
DRAGON BALL Z GAMES NEXT IN HONOR OF TORIYAMA
My God. These madmen actually did it.
This was the list I was asking for for quite a while.
I know right? THEY COOKED 🔥🔥🔥🔥
NEVER LET THEM COOK AGAIN 🧯🧯🧯🧯
Next: Mega Man. All of them, across the entire franchise 🤣
Most of them are too similar
Can we put in cuphead
Megaman Legends!!!
Satan.
@@_Gilles_you could say the same about pokemon tbh. Besides, there are plenty of spinoffs
Explorers of sky is a really beloved game. You guys are on crack.
Man, I know the hate for Scarlet and Violet is basically traditional at this point. But I've never had that much fun in a Pokemon game for hours on end. First time in a decade I actually woke up and went straight into playing. There's just something about it. It fails a critic's marking guide sure, but its so damn fun.
God these lists are always so bad, in what world is the Pokémon Trading Card Game better than Emerald, Crystal, Black and White, B2W2??
I normally agree with their placements on these lists but every single one they've done of Pokemon has been way off.
I get complaints about Crystal and Emerald being low, but Gen V is my least favorite and almost made me quit Pokémon entirely. People didn't like them when they came out, but suddenly everyone acts like they're the best games ever. Then, despite their love for Gen V (which cuts you off from any non-Gen V Pokémon for most of the runtime), they pile on Galar and Paldea for not having everyone Pokemon.
Good lord, Pokemon BW2 at 33, Emerald at 44, both beneath POKEMON PUZZLE LEAGUE, and XY rated higher than just about everything except the crusty OG gameboy titles? like i get that RUclipsrs cant make good Pokemon rankings but these people have clearly only played like 5 games this is hilariously bad.
Then again these guys unironically use Metacritic so not like i expected much better
Putting Crystal, Emerald, and BW2 below sword and shield should be a crime against humanity. Also gen 2 isnt crusty tbh
Have you considered doing a list of mainline games online based on your opinion? I get doing a full list of every game based on review scores, but seeing games like emerald and crystal so low hurts a bit
Great content nonetheless!
I LOVE Mystery dungeon games and Gates to Infinity was my favorite 😢 Although they are all amazing. They have about a quadrillion times more emotions and plot than all of the main series games combined. I loved the inner dialogue and those character portraits with different expressions. And the relationships between the characters, true friendship and all that. And the ending... I always cry at the end 😭 Oh yeah, and the music was also amazing. I hope they make a new one at some point... Although anything that goes on for too long inevitably turns to shit at the end so maybe it's time to let the series go while it's still pure at heart ❤
I have to say, Scarlet and Violet was the best experience I had in a mainline Pokémon game sense X and Y. Me and my wife played together and completed the Pokédex. Buggy as all hell? Yep. But it was leaps and bounds better than Sword and Shield, experience wise.
Playing thru this now and I’m actually pleasantly surprised. I expected Scarlet to be so much worse and I’m honestly having a kick with it. My sister got violet so we are both playing thru it like we did with red and blue when we were kids. Ah good times
Agreed. It's unfairly hated. I think as far as official releases go (not including romhacks and Infinite Fusion), they're like the third or fourth best mainline games -- after BW, BW2, HG/SS, and maybe Platinum.
Plus terrastalization is BY FAR the best gimmick. Megas were so lame and unnecessary, z-moves were stupid, and gigantimax was meh.
It was pretty overly panned by critics and very plugged in gamer types.
For the average pokemon loving Joe, the games were pretty well liked. It's biggest downfall is it came after Arceus, which did what gen 9 was trying to do first and better awkwardly enough.
Certainly they were much funner games to actually play then gen 8, 7, and 6.
I think it was fairly criticised for it's performance. It runs terribly.
But in terms of gameplay - Game Freak are at least going in the right direction since Arceus.
@@battlep0t I think the criticism was fair but the impact on the gameplay it had was a little lopsided. I know a lot of people at my job that will go on and on about the bugs even though they never played the game but have no clue about the game play. Mostly because the negative aspects were kind of over covered by the news compared to its positives.
To a casual pokemon playing audience I think it rates a lot higher overall then the critiques and scores might suggest.
You guys always make my days better with your videos. Love ya'll!
Emerald being that low is a travesty. Being able to beat both teams down, plus the Battle Frontier? It's the OBJECTIVELY best of the third gen entries.
Un-fucking-believable
I was thinking the same thing
Wow you sure are mad
@@lpnp9477 baffled more so.
How anyone would think R/S are better than Emerald is beyond me
Same for them claiming platinum is worst than diamond and pearl
As a quintessential 90s kid, it's hard to describe to the younger generation just how immense of an impact that first 2 generations had in the world
If I had a nickel for every time Triple Jump released a garbage Pokemon ranking video I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
Pokémon Dash seems like a mini game from Pokémon stadium 2 turned into a full game.
Did you guys even play the games? This list doesn't make sense
flipadelphiia bites the crub 4k
Yeaahh.... these games are all over the place
none of them ever play the games, they just use data from game review sites and such.
Mega Man games from worst to best, please.
They’ve done it. They’ve only gone and bloody done it.
Let's be real, if you play the originals now, you play 3rd installment in each mainline title.
Nope, couldn't be more wrong
@@sanders7368 so you are telling me, you would play Ruby or Sapphire instead of Emerald?
Whoever's idea it was to use that specific footage during the Pokemon Art Academy entry, it's your fault I'm having nightmares tonight.
If you think they're bad, you should check out the playthrough on Game Grumps/Steam Train. Especially when Ross was in control.
I refuse to believe you put X/Y/SHIELD/SWORD/SCARLET above pkmn explorers
They do these lists by collating review scores - it's not their opinion
he put cafe mix above explorers of sky, this list is just randomly sorted
Nevermind that, he put Gates to Infinity over explorers, shuffle and the rumble games
This is the issue with creating lists based solely on review scores. Review scores are probably the furthest thing from an objective ranking you could get, especially when you're ranking a series that has multiple genres and potential fan bases to cater to.
I was IN LOVE with Lugia and Dialga as a kid. They looked so fucking cool
I have to be honest. When I played Scarlett when it first came out, I was surprised with the low reviews cause I had no technical problems at all.
I had 1 frame rate slowdown but other than that, smooth sailing
same, 0 problems because i didnt played it on a switch :D
Just cuz you didn't experience any technical issues, doesn't mean anyone else didn't.
I was the same, it was very weird to hear about. Was it people using online functions that caused it? For a while I thought a lot of people were just carrying on.
I'm at work checking on my food from laughing too hard at "Oak Daddy"! Thanks Ben
I love reviews by people that haven’t actually played the games
Baffled at how the suggestion the souls silver and heart gold had “minimal effort” and “didn’t deserve to get the praise it get but gets it anyway” is insane
I love these deluxe length TripleJump rankings, I’ve been enjoying the entire ride taking the mickey out of the Rumble series, and then Mystery Dungeon 2 appeared inbetween two PC games I’ve never heard of within the bottom 20 and I feel the intense need to add some rope to my Amazon basket
8:30 I still have Pokemon box: ruby and sapphire. Too bad I opened it as I hardly used it. It goes for a lot of money on ebay. The reason why it sold so poorly is because it was only offered from the Pokemon center website and the Pokemon center in New York so the price reflects its rarity. Just looking on ebay right now, the last one sold for $1,500.
This ranking is a crime
yeah clearly something went very wrong here.
Definitely I jumped to near the end and saw Pokemon diamond and sun/moon super high on the list and new this wasn't worth watching
at this point this series is flatout shitpost and shouldn't be taken seriously
Every Atlus game ever please!
It’s such a shame that Scarlet and Violet were released in such an unfinished state. Scarlet was the most fun I’ve had with a Pokémon game in years.
Bravo good sirs, you mad lads you. Content like this and the hard work y’all put into it is why I love your channel.
Heads up, your credit from the Pokémon Art Academy is wrong. I tried to find it in JackLiberty0's channel and it didn't exist. I think the footage you took is from the Game Grumps.
This certainly won't rustle some jimmies. 😅
Sun and Moon were fantastic. I loved how, rather than some evil guy trying to harness a legendary pokemon you don't see until the final story hour, the box legendary is your friend throughout the entire game and plays a role in protecting you.
I thought emerald would be top 3 jesus Christ
Yeah but instead Crystal and Emerald are below G/S and R/S...like what
they are even below go pikachu/go eve, this list is a mess. maybe next time they shouldnt be so stiff and not go so extremly by critics rating.
Too much 🌊
Here are some ideas for your next ranked list:
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
- Dragonball
- Metal Gear
- Tiny Toon Adventures
- Power Rangers
- X-Men
- Transformers
- Crash Bandicoot
- Godzilla
- Marvel Comics
- Spyro
Dragon Ball should be next
Happy to see everyone getting along, respectful of other's opinions here.
Pokémon Go not being ranked higher is a crime. It makes a lot of money still.
You've done all the explorer games so dirty here lads
No, they’re exactly where they should be. Niche, poor sales, and a very small fanbase is all they’ll ever be.
The absolute disrespect to Mystery Dungeon and Emerald in this video. Nah
Turtwig is clearly a turtle, what the hell
Love your content! These mega list videos save me during long days at work
Explorers of Darkness in 77th is like insulting my heritage.
I don't even like Pokemon but getting a Simon Miller "cameo" more than 2 hours in was worth it.
Plus I love all the jokes along the way :)
Pokemon black 2/white 2 being this low is wild.
Really nice to see something that covers X/Y without falling into the usual trap of _"I don't like Gen 6. This Pokemon/character/location/mechanic/anything is from Gen 6. Therefore, it sucks"_ that you see so often with Pokemon RUclips Reviewers. I'd say they're probably among my favourite games in the series!
I enjoyed the mystery dungeon and rumble series.
There are TWO of us!!
Mystery dungeon I understand but rumble really?
@@boydriceisawesome2520 filled the same void as Dynasty Warriors/Hyrule Warriors for me!
@@wastelanderone hey you can like whatever you want i just find it weird haha but awesome if you enjoyed it
@boydriceisawesome2520 I enjoy mindless 1v1000 games on occasion, I forget when I've said this but different games, even of the same genre scratch different itches, I equally enjoy heavy political stories like the legend of heroes trails as much as I do a lighthearted romp with a certain purple dragon. I also judge every game as it's own even when their part of a series that's why my opinion on paper mario sticker star, good or bad, wasn't colored by disappointment that it wasn't the next thousand year door.
Pokemon Emerald, and Pokemon Black & White 🔥🦾
Peter trying to say Pokémon names is literally the funniest thing about this video lolol naga-nadel ma-wheel🤭🤭
Can you do a “Every Video Game Ranked WORST to BEST” video?
Yeahh, people aren’t gonna be happy with this one
Idk why, but hearing Ben say "Wii!" so many times during PokePark Wii's segment made me laugh. 😂
The absurdity of this list makes me nervous that other franchises i don't know that much about may be this absurd as well!
Yes! I've waited for this. This is madness. I hope ranking games is easier than ranking the pokemén themselves.
No this list has to be much harder, they did no research on the ranking the pokemon list, here they at least had to go looking for info on obscure games
I was not expecting a Simon Miller cameo but I give it an up
Seems to be the first one they've done in a while, honestly missed the Simon miller impressions haha.
My copy of pokemon silver got destroyed when my mom washed my pants with the cartridge in my pocket...
"I'm Ben and I'm Peter" you mean to tell me there's two people talking?!?!
Putting Pokemon Ranger Guardian Signs at #1 was a bold move but I respect it
Genuinely kind of annoyed by how often you’ve put way more playable remakes and third versions below the originals. Platinum especially, which is still my favourite individual game of the series.
Just to set the record straight, Pokemon Card GB2 is amazing and should, if anything, be higher than the first game. It expands on the first game so much, there are so many more cards, so many more ways to build your deck (it includes the first round of Team Rocket cards that got released, as well as tons of vending machine promos never printed in the US and GB exclusives).
Unlike the first game which only has so many viable strategies, and you're likely to get whatever you want to use by the end - there's so many more cards in the second game that the RNG of what you pull from packs matters significantly for what your options are, making it incredibly replayable. Every gym on the new island has special challenges where your deck has to meet certain prerequisites, like having 4 Rattatas, or only using a certain kind of energy, usually putting you at some kind of disadvantage (or preventing you from steamrolling them with the perfect counter).
Like you said, it wasn't released outside of Japan, and the first time I played it was with a romhack that translated everything essential to progression - but these days there are fully translated English roms out there. If you are someone who was a fan of the first Pokemon TCG GB game, you are doing yourself a HUGE disservice not playvvving the sequel. It's a PHENOMENAL experience for any fan of the genre.v
Yakuza like a dragon from worst to best
8:25 ROY and Hayley: is this some incredibly niche Coronation Street reference?
I appreciate you guys ranking the mainline games separately. As a VERY DISTANT fan, I never got why they chose to do this; other than MONEY 😂
Never expected to see Gail Platt in a Pokemon video lmao thanks for that!
Wow, here we go! I'm surprised this was uploaded on a Monday though, as "From WORST to BEST" videos were usually uploaded on a Friday.
Okay, #1 is my favorite Pokémon game. PERFECT!
Putting the gen 1 that high up is crazy
Especially since the remakes were much better with the Post Game content. The ranking makes no sense to me.
Puttin Crystal, Emerald, and BW2 below sword/shield is a crime against humanity
These lists are so good that I don't even like Pokemon and im watching this
Every Final Fantasy game ranked next?!?
I know these games were ranked by review scores, but Gale of Darkness is objectively better than sword and shields in terms of story and graphics.
The line, "children don't count, or can't count, unless they're using a edutainment system," was so clever 😂
This video is great good job
XD is so overly critisied and highly underrated.
Facts
Putting Pokemon Gold/Silver over every other 2D Pokemon game marks this as one of the worst lists I ever seen.
Gen 2 is amazing and one of the best games in the franchise still, but 3, 4, and 5 are easily better and they get slandered so hard.
By my calculations, bad reviews by critics on Pokemon games I played are completely wrong. My parents say that critics are the worst and makes me believe that bad reviews of games I played are just lies. I'm not a critic. I had a lot of fun playing the Pokemon games I have. Here is a list of all the mainline games I have:
Pokemon FireRed - I have not played the original Game Boy games.
Pokemon Platinum - I prefer this version instead of the original Diamond and Pearl games.
Pokemon SoulSilver - Not my best remake I played since I prefer 3D over 2D.
Pokemon Black - I like Reshiram more than Zekrom.
Pokemon White 2 - I prefer White Kyurem more. Also, for Rival characters whose names I can customize, I always use my brother's name, Brendan.
Pokemon X - I prefer Charizard and Mewtwo's X versions of their Mega forms.
Pokemon Omega Ruby - I never played the original Ruby and Sapphire games.
Pokemon Sun - I pretty much prefer Sogoleo over Lunala.
Pokemon Ultra Sun - I like the Ultra games more than Sun and Moon.
Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu - I prefer the Let's Go games more than the Game Boy Advance Gen 1 remakes because of the 3D graphics and I like the catching mechanic since I play Pokemon Go.
Pokemon Sword - I don't care if there is no National Dex since I have no complaints about it. I also liked the Dynamax method, it almost makes me feel like The Pokemon Company and Game Freak got the idea of making a Pokemon giant sized because of Kaiju films (Game Freak loves the Godzilla series).
Pokemon Brilliant Diamond - I never played the original DS games but I liked these remakes, it doesn't matter to me what the graphics are like, they look great.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus - It made me think this was open world since you can go wherever you want but it wasn't. Still a great game.
Pokemon Violet - While both Gen 9 games had bugs and glitches at launch, I never encountered any of them. This was a great game and I do like the futuristic Paradox Pokemon. Two of them which interested me being Iron Thorns (references Mechagodzilla) and Iron Jugulis (references Mecha-King Ghidorah). I liked Miraidon because it traveling on land makes it more motorcycle-like than Koraidon.
Gen 8 and 9 are some of the worst games ever created
@@shewolfcub3 And here you go being a jerk like those critics. A good Pokemon fan like me praises the Gen 8 and 9 games. Only a jerk disrespects them. I think someone needs to learn a lesson about criticizing games that I enjoyed playing.
Fun video, thank you! I really enjoyed it!
Digimon worst to best next
1. Crystal because it added so much that became the norm for all games going forward and I remember how cool that I found the new changes. Crystal was the first to add animated pokemon in battles, a battle tower, male/female character, a sign at the bottom of the screen telling you the name of the area that youve just entered, and it started more focus on sub quests meaning that there was more to do alongside following the main storyline.
Crystal was my favorite. I would catch all the legendary pokemon in that game. I don't get this ranking system. It's like let's rank the two games that are missing things the other game has better than the third game that combines both games into one pretty much. It's ridiculous and makes no sense. How are games that you can't catch all the pokemon because they leave out some pokemon that you can only get in the other game beating the games that includes all the pokemon even the legendary pokemon that both games have? It's like saying incomplete games are better than complete games.
I really like this vid!
Did anyone else like Pokemon Shuffle? I actually was digging it for a while on 3ds. I thought it was kinda deep!
You highly underestimate how much the Houndoom line is loved.
I don't know how much of an unpopular opinion it is but i just finished playing pokemon ranger for the first time and it's mediocre at best: it's barely a game. At least completing the pokedex is more enjoyablethan the main games.
Amazing list. The writer did fantasic research! Id love to see Rare games ranked
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon is better than a vast majority of the main series. The best thing the series could do is get rid of the cliche ass gyms and humans, if they want to talk about repetitive gameplay.
Ain't no way Detective Pikachu, or the Cafe series, or ranger or PoGo is superior.
They clearly just went by metacritic score, because how in the hell is pokemon art academy better than ScarVi
I was a big fan of the original Snap as a kid, and had accepted that it was likely dead and buried. I was so ecstatic to hear about the new one, and it did not disappoint!
Also, I'll make my request known again, please do a rankem of all weapon based racing games. Rules 1, you have to do laps around a track and 2, you fire at least one weapon, like Xtreme G for example
27:22: OK this one I am REALLY arguing. This has to be one of the best mystery dungeon titles in existence, with some fun music, a nice storyline, a huge roster you could play as, lots of replay value.... and you put it in the 70s of your rankings. I'm sorry. I don't normally dispute you're placements, but on this one I feel you got it way off. I found this much more engaging and fun than almost ALL the main lineup. I honestly think it should have been at least in the mid to high 20s AT MINIMUM. anyway I said my peace. And counted to three.
As a Gen 1 baby, Gen 5 has the best games by far, in my opinion.
Black and White 2 are SO good.
