The wildest scene for me is the one where Wurmple tells Swellow that he keeps thinking about him gulping him down, only for Swellow to be shocked and give reasurance that he’d never do that, and they have a tender moment together. Their team name is Team Tasty, for those not in the know, lol.
@beatrix1120 Yeah, it's pretty wild. It's an Easter egg, way later in the game. They have this whole thing going with them. Earlier, you talk to Wurmple and he hints that he fears Swellow might want to eat him. Here's an exact quote of this interaction: Wurmple: "Excuse me? Why did I pick the name Team Tasty? Well... Er, um... I think that's how my partner will think of me eventually... Y-y-yeesh..." I don't know when it happens exactly, but eventually, there is a cutscene at the beach where Wurmple confronts Swellow with his fears. Here's the part in question: Swellow: "What... what are you suggesting? Me? Eat you? Wurmple! You're my trusted partner. You're my one... and only partner. There's no replacing you. You and me, we're going to keep on exploring like we've always done. Hm? Why are you crying?" Wurmple: "Eep... Thank you, Swellow... You are my one and only leader. I'm very... So very h-h-happy..."
The whole primary benefit of grabbing a water type starter is access to bubble early on making tododile one of the worst water starters for mystery dungeon. Why just slow when you can slow and do damage from a distance.
@@ultimaterecoil1136 Bubble is 20 power in gen 4, which means iirc PMD Dark/Time/Sky, too, and has the same chance of slowing that Scald has of burning. No thank you, I'd like to keep my GUARUNTEED Slow on the enemy so my Riolu friend can Focus Punch for free 100% of the time against bosses.
@@kirbyfreakyt4695 any move’s power can be boosted but a move with awful pp will never be good in mystery dungeon. And if you really want to hinder bosses doubling up on stuns works until you run out of pp ( they only work for 1 turn on bosses but with 2 different stunning affects like attract+imprison on vulpix for example pretty much every boss is male so a female vulpix can do this to the vast majority of bosses) or one of the powders into attract or 2 different partners with stuns) gives them no turns. Scary face still gives some to the opponent. And bubble is still gonna be ohkoing non resist while exploring frankly riolu with focus punch should be ohkoing most bosses so your pp matters a significant amount more for the rest of your damaging moves. Maybe they’d get a turn if it was a resisted one or ones that are 1 single significantly strong unit as opposed to a group of several weak units ( though fighting weak single bosses still get one shot like dialga) but you don’t need any more power. What you’d need is longevity range and crowd control. The whole point of picking riolu is that single handedly solves the one boss situation. Bubble can ko several opponents while exploring up to that point from a distance. This is the game where fire blast is utter garbage and ember is at least decently ok if outclassed by other better fire moves like heatwave a large pp is a very big deal especially on a ranged attack. You only really want 1 move for power vs bosses and you’d want a second stab for dungeon exploration. You realistically don’t even want any of the starters anyway you’d want pikachu for roomwide damage as a riolu partner but of the water starters you’d want one with bubble
Idk, I kinda like that he only came around at the very end, the original scene was pretty good with him "accidentally" dropping the relic and then telling us to just take it Kinda like gengar who screwed us over massively in the first game, accidentally ran into gardevoir and then helped create the teleportation gem
@@letsplaysvonaja1714 While I do like the change of heart, it kinda came out of nowhere unlike Gengar's change of heart. I mean in that same dungeon, he and his team just straight up mug our partner and he only changes his mind after getting beat up by Kabuto and his gang. It felt very random especially with how quickly this happened while Gengar actually had a reason to change with him being reminded of his old partner and how wrong he was to do that.
@@letsplaysvonaja1714 Don't forget that he also saves you after Rayquaza shoots the meteor. Sure, he claims he's taking you to the 'dark world' and that he dropped you off because he 'got lost', but it's easy to see that it's just because he can't admit to himself what he's actually doing. ❤
Let’s keep in mind if we did face them in a straight up fight, we could probably win. Aside from the noxious gas combo, it’s not like they’re that tough/strong.
@@omegaentertainment01 oh right, forgot. still, bulbasaur should be immune and that's the player character so there's no "and then the partner got beat up off screen".
Okay but we all wanted to do it. Not a single person was down with the partner’s “we can’t let a pokemon go without help” attitude. I for one was ready to beat the absolute schnikies out of Skuntank. Also, those kick loops were really good! Great work!
I was really annoyed once I realized Skuntank is basically never outed and hardly punished through the game's story. He just sorta disappears from the guild after blaming you for a bunch of shit and nobody says anything. Sure he gets beat up by Wigglytuff but Wigglytuff literally doesnt care and just leaves.
Okay...I confess I didn't see that twist coming. :P Though in the original scene after you go on ahead and Team Skull grumbles to each other how out-of-character it was for them to do be somewhat nice to the heroes...we never see or hear from them again, even in the post-game. It almost implies they might have died in there.
In Super Mystery Dungeon they are revealed to be alive apparently Of course good luck getting to that part since that means you have to get past Salamence

A lot of things bother me about this game ever since I started thinking about it. Finding out the guild was a parody of Japanese business ruined the guild for me, but there's also the fact that skuntank is never really outed or punished. He just gets beat up offscreen a few times.

Skuntank should have known better than to tick off someone while already out of commission. Especially someone who would have a reason to hate you already
I almost fell for it until I saw *Avalugg* and I thought: "Hold on, Avalugg is from Gen 6, isn't it?"
They could've used slugma or something. They wanted to give us a chance. I'll bet a lot of people still fell for it.
sameeee lol
Same lmao I was like "am I... Am I confusing it with abomasnow??"
I was thinking "wait what?" and then I got hit with it, still find it funny though.
Yyyyep. That's exactly where I began questioning things.
This is the scene I point to when people ask what scenes in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games get deep with the story.
I didn't get to finish Mystery Dungeon entirely, so for a second I thought this comment was real 💀
if I was to do that I'd use super mystery dungeon because its like 3x better with that

When he said Deez Nuts, he didn't expect Riolu to repeatedly kick him in the nuts.
Even Koffing and Zubat had enough of their boss' shit.
Either that, or they just fear getting caught up in the retribution
Was expecting a legit scene but instead I got a really good video to start my day 😂
Truly one of the best scenes ever. This game is just a masterpiece
“Wait, Avalugg? Did they make a new mystery- ah, there it is.”
Let’s keep in mind if we did face them in a straight up fight, we could probably win. Aside from the noxious gas combo, it’s not like they’re that tough/strong.
We litterally beat the shit of Koffing and Zubat in the first dungeon. They will stand no chance, even with their boss.
It always bugged me as a kid that we never got to kick their ass properly. But I also appreciated the storytelling in that regard too
if you play as a bulbasaur and a riolu, then you should both be immune to poison lmao

When Skuntank mentioned Avalugg, I got confused for a moment.

The original team skull.
As someone who's never played mystery dungeon, I choose to believe this as fact
Cyndaquil: Riolu. *Castrate him with Bone Rush.*
Skuntank: *_NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO_*
IF THE EVENTUAL EXPLORERS OF SKY REMAKE ADDS THIS I WILL BUY IT IMMEDIATELY.
Looks like they got Slugma...
I need that herb alpert spanish flea remix in full
This was incredibly well done. If I wasn't absolutely obsessed with the Explorers games I would've been tricked into thinking this was real
Riolu's just showing no mercy to Skuntank 💀
The thumbnail had me think something else, i cant tell wether im relieved or disappointed
Cyndaquil: So you have chosen death…
Zubat: Ha sido tan malo que hasta yo me disculpo por la situación... tened buenos madrazos
I need that animation on loop oh my goodness xD
OKAY I didn't expect that, nice work :)
Holy cow! That animation is so clear! X,D I LOVE IT!
Skuntant: Avalugg at deez nuts! Chaw-haw-haw!
Cyndaquil: Domain Expansion: Malevolent Shrine.
Skuntank: Shit...
Feels incredibly nostalgic. ❤ Reminds me of a simpler time.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon hits me right in that nostalgiac bone every time I hear its music, such a bittersweet feeling :)
Skuntank should’ve said “It’s just a prank bro!” Before cyndaquill and riolu beat the shit out of him.
I think the Mistery Dungeon community is the most beautiful Pokémon community.
Honestly, I wish you could've done something like that in game
I felt something coming when I read Avalugg, like hmmmmm... A gen 6 pokemon in PMD2?
0:42 - Wait a minute, did Skuntank just break the fourth wall to mention Pokémon of the future generations?!
Love how it's timed to the music at the end
That is the face of someone that knows they did something wrong and okay with being punished
OMG I thought we was gonna a dark theme on the episode but I got fooled into a deez but episode 😂
i was like “it’s been awhile since i’ve played… i don’t remember avalugg? or is it just my bad memory?” and then skuntank says the joke LOL
Beware of Kabutops. Unless you’re a Grass-type. Then you’d be fine.
Already knew it was coming,Deez Nuts wasn't a Pokemon until gen 6.
And Mystery Dungeon had already switched to 3D graphics by then
This must exist...
In a completely different timeline...
How to anger a Cyndaquil 101 with Stuntank. Fake out a injury, then make a bad joke. Works every time.
