STOP BEING GREEDY
Nooo! You were the chosen one!
Raid… paying creators tenths of thousands of dollars to tell some crappy game…
DONT BE SOLD ON BAD SPONSORS
EVEN IF IT IS FOR THE MONEY
Unreal dude. I can't believe you sold out to fucking raid. Might unsub.
She raid on my shadow until i legends
You see, he didn't forget Trevor, he just gave us his most well known fact: Trevor is the most forgettable rival.
Nah, he isn't. He represents the players that wants to catch them all.
Who's trevor again?
@@toumabyakuyawhich is why no one likes him.
@@L.E.T.T.U.C.E The third rival from X/Y.
@@runedoom What? Are you saying that having a rival that represents your way to play the games is bad?.
Bro mentions Shuna and Tierno as minor rivals, but leaves out Brendon/May from gen 3, Trevor and Calam/Serena from gen 6.
I mean, he did a video for the Main Characters and Brendan/May and Calem/Serena were there. But you are right with Trevor.
He also forgot about the green haired guy from x/y, the one with sceptile.
@@DarkEmperor92Thats an anime character
Doesn't appear in the games
Edit: nevermind, he mentions the anime rivals too, except that one
My bad
Trevor is a rival in my book too, but no in-game source actually lists him as one. He's just labeled as a friend instead.
I thought hana would be mentioned.
Hau is an underrated rival, he acts nice and chill because he's trying to avoid the pressure of being the Kahuna's grandchild. He also goes through a pretty good arc throughout the story. He deserves more love
Completely biased because Moon was the first Pokémon game that I fully beat, but Hau is my favorite rival. (My first Pokémon game was Alpha Sapphire, but I don’t remember getting to the Delta Episode)
@@Decidukip Moon is my favorite pokemon game! But glad to see Hau getting some love
Agreed
Man Alex forgot about Trevor, the most iconic rival from X and Y
Fr, I was about to come say this
#justicefortrevor
He also forgot about Ronald from Pokémon Trading Card Game and Pokémon Trading Card Game 2: Great Rocket-Dan Sanjō!
Tierno is most iconic
He likely left him out because no in-game source currently lists him as a rival. This will likely change one Masters EX makes him playable at some point.
@@wikiuser92 really?
N doesn’t have a different team because he loves Pokémon, technically.
It’s because, per Team Plasma’s doctrine, he’s releasing the Pokémon he catches after every battle and capturing new ones from the area when you encounter him.
N hates the idea of keeping Pokémon in balls and battling with them, so he would likely release them out of love anyway even if it wasn’t related to Team Plasma.
That sounds like a really cool Pokemon challenge. The N challenge: You need to release all your Pokemon every major battle!
3:59 correction: both Kieran and Nemona have level 87 pokemons during the epilogue of the SV DLC
Yeah, I know they capped them at 87 so Red'sbPikachu is still the highest level pokemon
@@Roseoco_Weeeeeeell, not anymore as we got BDSP Cynthia with her level 88 Garchomp. And her team has a higher level average overall compared to Red. (Red's team level average is 83.6 and Cynthia's team level average is 85.5)
@@theonlineninja7596 forgot about that, BDSP was trash lol
@@Roseoco_"trash" that somehow has the best League challenge to this date
@@mastergreeen1385 the random increase of difficulty doesn't change the fact that the game is bad
Forgot about Trevor. As for a fact for him? Like the other rivals in X/Y, he represents a sector of the fanbase: The Pokemon collectors. He represents the fans that wants to complete a Pokedex/Living Dex. The other 3 represent the other three major sectors of the fan base: Shauna represents casuals, Tierno challenge-runners and Calem/Serena represents the competitives.
Ooo, fascinating
All in-game sources currently available list him as a friend instead of a rival, even though I agree he's a rival. Hopefully Masters EX will make him playable soon and correct this injustice by confirming his rival status.
@@雪者 I know, right?.
@@wikiuser92 Suppose that could be it.
and he still doesnt have a full team of 6 pokemons lmao
Another neat detail about Klara, once you beat the main story of The Isle of Armor, she will be forgiven by Mustard for cheating against the player and will be given a second chance to redeem herself to be better.
Once you obtain her second trainer card, there are subtle details about her character.
-Her Slowbro is no longer distorted showing that her picture is not photoshopped this time. She is not lying to herself anymore
-She is wearing a facial mask to improve the complexion of her skin. Most likely making an effort to be pretty without using photoshop.
-She is also seen working out most likely as an effort to lose weight because again, she does not want to use photoshop anymore.
It goes to show her character development. She is actually putting actual effort this time (working out and actually taking care of her apperance) in order to achive a goal and be better rather than to cheat(use photoshop and like how she tried to cheat against the player).
why did she even photoshop though? her second card proves she didnt needed to photoshop in the first place (if you understand what I mean)
@@theamazingspooderman2697 Shes a bit chubby and most girls do not see themselves as pretty as we see them.
Which is why a lot of ladies around her age also use photoshop to lie about their apperance especially online.
@@garchompelago she's that older than the protagonist of the game?
@@theamazingspooderman2697 Her age was never officially mentioned but her age is roughly around 18+ or early 20s considering her figure and height. Yes shes older than the protagonist but not too old. The protagonist is roughly around 16-18.
The Barry fact is actually incorrect, in the Mochi Mayhem event in Scarlet abd Violet Nemona's Ace is level 87, with the rest of her team being 86. So Barry does not hold the record for the highest leveled rival.
N's teams being different each time is because he uses pokemon from the Local area, then releases them afterwards. Ties in with his want for them to be free/not in balls
Other fun facts about these characters:
* _Let's Go_ confirms that Oak not knowing your rival's name is a practical joke he plays on Blue. Blue calls him out for using an old joke.
* Ignoring that false Raticate bit, Trace's Marowak is actually the orphaned Cubone from Pokémon Tower.
* Silver owns a Ho-oh and Shiny Tyranitar in _Pokémon Masters EX._ Said game also implies he stole his Sneasel from Kurt.
* Wally is apparently immune to aging, as he appears in Alola's Battle Tree, and with the Alola games presumably taking place nearly 20 years after the events of _ORAS._ In addition, Wally has a Shiny Gardevoir in _Pokémon Masters EX,_ likely as a reference to him potentially finding a Shiny Ralts.
* The reason Barry keeps trying to fine people because he wants to gather money for his own Battle Tower so he could challenge his father there.
* If you manage to beat Bianca in her first battle in _Black and White_ without taking any damage, Cheren will make a note on how you somehow won without taking any damage. As the scenario is highly unlikely to ever happen, the dialog is next to impossible to actually trigger.
* When _Black and White_ were first released, Bianca was widely misreported to be the Champion of the Pokémon League. What a plot twist that would've been huh?
* N's full name is Natural Harmonia Gropius. _Pokémon Masters EX_ also shows him to own Zekrom, Reshiram, and Black Kyurem, the latter having fused with Hilbert's own Kyurem.
* Some Team Plasma Grunts note that Hugh's hairstyle resembles a Qwilfish.
* Pokémyth busted: Shauna, Tierno, and Trevor are not your rivals in _X and Y,_ only Calem/Serena is. The only time there are even associated with rivals is in _Pokémon Masters EX,_ and even then Trevor is not a rival at all. They are there to emphasize _X and Y's_ theme of "'beauty', 'bonds', and 'evolution'", and to highlight how the chance encounters you make with people you meet, to provide opportunities to build a better world.
*Calem and Serena (who aren't in the video for some reason): Calem owns a Shiny Greninja in _Pokémon Masters EX,_ which is implied to be his first partner. Serena possesses a standard Greninja, but her first partner is Fennekin. She also has a Zygarde.
* Uniquely for a rival, the player will not black out in battles against Hau and the story will progress regardless of the outcome, except for battles taking place at Mount Lanakila (in _Sun and Moon)_ or the Pokémon League.
He is also the only rival to have caught an Ultra Beast, as he catches a Blacephalon in _Ultra Sun_ or a Stakataka in _Ultra Moon_ at Poni Grove, though he gives it to the Ultra Recon Squad immediately afterwards.
* Gladion is technically the only Rival to nickname his Pokémon, as he refers to his Type: Null as "Null". In the anime he straight up calls it "Silvally."
* Hop uses a Gigantamax Corviknight in Champion tournaments, despite the fact that there is no way for him for the Rookidee he caught before the Wild Area to have the Gigantamax Factor without DLC.
* Bede is the only Trainer with multiple League Cards to have his signature change between the two. He is also apparently left-handed.
* Marnie possesses a Mawile that can Mega Evolve in _Pokémon Masters EX,_ despite the Galar games lacking the mechanic.
* Klara originally started as an underground pop singer, but despite her best attempts at self-promotion, she only sold about eight copies of her debut album.
* Coming from a family of psychics, Avery is considered by his family to be a disappointment due to him only possessing telekinesis, and not more impressive skills like teleportation or telepathy.
* In Pokémon: Paldean Winds, Nemona uses a Killowattrel and a Combat Breed Paldean Tauros. As Nemona trades a Paldean Tauros to the player in the League Club Room, it's suggested Nemona used these Pokémon on her original team.
* Kieran's Dragonite has the Normal Tera Type, which is never seen in normal gameplay.
* Gary is the first rival to capture a Legendary Pokémon on-screen, being a Regidrago. He is also not only a rival to Ash during the original series, but was a rival to Goh during their time with Project Mew.
* It is revealed in his reappearance in _Pokémon Journeys_ that Paul is more calm and happy now, as a result of the fact that he was asked to become a Gym Leader, making him want to learn more about Pokémon and their nature.
* Trip is the only rival from Unova to have participated in every onscreen battle tournament within the region. However, he lost in the first round in all but one.
* Cameron is the only Unova rival to use a Pokémon from outside of Generation V, being his Lucario.
* Leon is the only Trainer to have used the Counter Shield technique with one of his Pokémon who did not appear in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl. Also he didn't cheat as Eternatus appeared over Wyndon Stadium and recharged both Trainers' Dynamax Bands.
* Storyboard artist Tetsuo Yajima has stated in an interview that Alain's character arc in Pokémon the Series: XY was derived in part from that of Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequel trilogy.
* Ritchie's Charmeleon becomes a Charizard in The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga, but in a match against Ash's own Charizard in the Pokémon League, the latter attacked Ritchie's Charizard so severely that it was bleeding heavily from a bite wound to its neck. As a result, Ash recalled his Charizard giving Ritchie the match.
also ngl, I prefer Trace over Blue/Green, he actually saw Cubone lonely and asked it to join his team so it doesnt feel lonely but somehow that isnt considered iconic but a rival who acts like a jerk even after losing to us all the time is considered iconic
Wow. These facts are way more fun than the ones in the video.
Thanks for sharing! I think I liked your list better than the video honestly!
Where do you get Alola's placement in the timeline?
@@BluePhoenix_ It's a common guesstimate given we know 3 years separates the Kanto/Hoenn games and Johto/Sinnoh games, and 4 years separates the Unova and Alola games. We don't know how far apart Johto/Sinnoh and Unova are, but given how Caitlin goes from a young child to an adult in that time frame and that Red goes from late teens to presumably late 20s seems to suggest a wide frame of time.
Also the Alola Dex entry says Porygon was developed 20 years ago, which the Pocket Monsters Encyclopedia, specifically says was in the year 1995. Since SM/USUM Red has a shirt that has "96" on the front it can be inferred the Pokémon games take place in the same year system we use, and if Porygon was developed only a year before the Kanto games took place, it can be assumed it has been 20 years since then.
9:48 bit of a mistake here. Trip did have a cameo in ep 117 of Journeys during Iris vs Cynthia while Cameron did not so he's the only one of Ash's rivals who did not appear in Journeys. Also while Alain was the big rival I think Sawyer should've been included.
Hop is one of the best rivals in the entire series. Bro grows along side you, has a character arc, gets a Legendary, and finally breaks free from his brothers shadow.
Hop is my GUY.
Pokemon fans don't care about that, they just want a rival who loses everytime yet says "I am better than you" the next time we battle
HELL YEAH LETS GO
@theamazingspooderman2697 Well they should because not all rivals have to be mean. Just because a rival doesn't call you mean names doesn't mean they're not good. Rivals are still characters and should have a personality, depth, story, and a backstory. Personally I think it's more interesting that way. I never liked the meaner rivals like Blue. I get that that's what most people grew up with and they like that more but the newer rivals aren't that bad imo... people are too stubborn to move on and accept the new rivals. They just want all rivals to be mean to us... smh
Leon did not cheat the reason he was able to use. The gimmick twice is because of the legendary Pokémon shared its power with him and Ash.
I refuse to believe that anyone who promotes Raid Shadow Legend actually plays it.
I figured N was using different Pokémon because he was releasing them after every battle. For one, because he’s Team Plasma, but also it speaks to his character to set his Pokémon free considering how close he is to them and how he can communicate with them.
thanks for talking about kieran that means a lot im so grateful
Trip did appear in Journeys. He just had a silent cameo watching Iris' battle
Leon didn't cheat. Both him and Ash got an extra chance to use dynamax thanks to Eternatus. An interesting fact about Leon is that he has the biggest amount of sponsorships of any character in SwSh. He's even sponsored by Gamefreak itself.
And Klara/Averi have some other pretty interesting facts too:
Klara is an underground idol that even made her own merch and sadly only sold 8 copies of her first album Avery comes from a family known for always having the role of being the psychic type gym leaders of the region. Except Avery because by comparison to the rest of family, his psychic powers were considered weaker.
That's why both decided to join the isle of armor dojo. To get a chance to eventually become gym leaders by training under an ex-champion.
Despite this Klara/Averi actually have a fan in the isle of armor that you can interact with through the story and always says how much she admires them. It's a female dojo trainer npc that even gives you an item that she tried giving to them but that they found a bit weird. It's pretty cute and funny.
yeah if Leon cheated then Prof Kukui also cheated when Tapu Koko gave him the ability to use Z-moves again in a battle
4:00 this is actually no longer true. Thanks to the indigo disk, both Nemona and Kieran have higher overall pokemon levels, with Nemona almost all of pokemon are level 86 but her paldea starter is level 87 and Kieran team having a Politoed and, Dragonite at leve, 85, Porygon, Grimmsnarl, and Incineroarat level 86, and Hydrapple being level 87
Heres a new fun fact for Barry. Barry has the rarest team among all the rivals with him. Have a Snorlax, which you can only get 3% of the time from specific honey trees and a Heracross, which also come from honey trees with a 5% chance of encountering it with only 5 trees that actually having it appear.
This means that Barry was patient enough to use the honey trees.
Actually, there is one case where Hop's Cramorant can be one level lower than otherwise, depending on your starter choice, during the battle at Stow-on-Side.
A fun fact about Nemona, in the Indigo Disk DLC when invited to the League Club, she says that she's actually NOT from the Paldea region, which PROBABLY explains her different badges.
And a bonus fact for Nemona, she and Lacey KNOW each other because when they were younger at some fancy party, Nemona challenged Lacey's father who Nemona confirms is Clay, right then and there to a Pokemon battle when she heard that Clay's a Gym Leader.
(And Trip DID make an appearance in Journeys, although ONLY as a quick cameo with other characters like Stephan, Georgia, Bianca and Lader watching Iris's battle against Cynthia)
Fact about Nemona: she is best girl
thats enough internet for you
Nemona and Serperior fan? There should be more people like you
@@pigeonlord8128Are they wrong tho
@@sandy_nes31 Nemona is a child virtual or not it's still wrong
@@pigeonlord8128 You're the one who immediately assumed the worst, you could have just not taken it that direction.
1:47 is when the sponsor ends.
Technically, Kieran isn’t the first NPC who uses a Master Ball, as in the post game of Pokémon Ultra Sun/Moon, all of the Evil Team Leaders have their Pokémon inside Master Balls when you battle them.
Yep!! And if I remember correctly Giovanni has his entire team in Master Balls just to flex
I think what he means is that Kieran is the first character shown trying to use a Master Ball to catch a Pokemon in the games. Funnily enough, there's another trainer that attempted to catch a Whishcash with a Master Ball in the anime, and like the example with Kieran, it winds up failing -- in this case because it apparently was eaten by the Pokemon he was trying to use it on. It seems like they really don't want to show people that aren't the main protagonist catching things successfully with the Master Ball (which would actually make for a neat piece of trivia to use for a facts for every pokeball video)
@@matthewkuscienko4616The AIs used master balls in the final battle and those are in fact fresh catches. The first ball that drops out of the machine is still wiggling.
@@matthewkuscienko4616 Well it didn't really fail. I mean he catched Terapagos. It just broke when it terastalaized and he attempted to call it back.
Kieran isn't the first NPC to use a master ball. Earleir that same game, the AIs caught their whole team *during* the battle, and they're all in master balls. The first one to come out of the time machine is still wiggling when it drops into their hand.
That’s true, but I’m debating over whether they should be considered NPCs since they’re professors, despite being AIs.
@@JZJ7777 Everyone who isn't the player character is a NPC and that includes sapient robots engaging in identity fraud to save the region.
Literally this video happened to be uploaded while I was giving my puppy a bath, it caomed her down because she loves to watch Pokemon with me
Aww that's great! It reminds me of my two cats who liked to lie next to me while I was playing video games, especially the older brother. They are no longer alive, but they helped me calm down and vice versa. I hope you will have more awesome Pokémon moments with your puppy!
What do you mean? Barry didn't have the strongest Pokemon of any rival. Heck Nemona had a level 87
0:19 I laughed so hard, I spit all over my iPad.
6:42 seem to be missing some rivals in X/Y...
Never noticed how richie and ash's color schemes were basically the colors of the og games
also nemona and shauna is the only female rival without a male counterpart
You forgot to include a few rivals from the anime, like Iris, who technically was a rival to Ash since they’d often compete in the same competitions, Bianca, Stephan, and Bea.
Nah. Iris is a traveling companion. The only traveling companion of Ash's who's also a rival is Kiawe.
@@wikiuser92 Iris technically counts as a rival though, especially within the Club Battle tournaments.
@@BushidoRoad I'm not sure if that counts.
@@wikiuser92 It does, not to mention that she’s always competing with Ash.
He isn’t talking about anime rivals, and Iris is more of a traveling companion than a rival.
People: Alex has forgotten about Trevor again alongside Serena / Calem
Me: He forgot Sawyer too.
As for Leon dynamaxing two Pokemon against Ash. He was not cheating.
Eternatus arrived during Ash and Leon's battle and recharged both of their Dynamax band thus allowing BOTH of them to use Dynamax TWICE.
Ash Dynamaxed Gengar and Pikachu in that battle.
In fact, Ash had the advantage in that battle.
In that battle, official rules states that they can only use one of either Dynamax, Z-moves or Mega Evolution. (Only one of any of the 3 for the entire 6v6 single battle)
However, Leon requested to drop that restriction and allo Ash to use all 3 battle gimmicks so he could battle Ash with all his strength.
Ash used two Dynamax (Gengar and Pikachu)
Mega evolution (Lucario)
and a Z-Move (Pikachu)
Meanwhile Leon used two Gigantamax.
Ash had the advantage in that battle. However all is fair because Leon himself asked for that rule to be dropped.
at 2:25 you can hear the whistle when he says "generations"
Yes ok?
😂 I remember Trevor from the anime the guy with mega charizard y huh?
hot take: i don’t mind rivals like nemona, hau, or hop. them being easy and from a new generation doesn’t change the fact that they are a unique character. serena/ Calem suck
Brendan/May suck too, name one important thing they did in the story, or any personality difference between them? you can't
(btw I'm a huge fan of May but from anime)
@@theamazingspooderman2697 There's a small difference in the remakes. Before the fight in Lilycove city, they talk about what they've been doing and get embarrased for different reasons. May is embarrased by the idea that she only went shopping for Pokemon dolls, while Brendan is embarrased by the idea that he went shopping for Pokemon dolls at all. Also in Emerald Brendan occasionally makes sexist comments towards the player, but the kind you'd expect from a ten year old. Comments like "I'm surprised you got this far since you're a girl".
Bonus Fact about N: If you use the Memory Transfer feature that B2W2 had (Chuggaconroy's LP is the most recent footage) to bring save data from BW over, you can catch all of the Pokemon that N used in each battle in BW! I still have them in Pokemon Home, they show N as the OT! Or at least, I still have the Darmanitan and Krookodile... I don't know where the rest of them went...
Edit: After Checking Pokemon Home, I found out that I have more than just those 2, I also still have: N's Galvantula (formerly Joltik), N's timburr, N's Klinklang (formerly Klink), and N's Zoroark (formerly Zorua).
In theory Rainbow Rocket Leaders and Sada/Turo have some Pokémon in Master Balls
And the AIs catch them during the actual fight
Man, there are so many interesting facts about Trevor, Alex wasn't able to pick one for this video. He's probably going to make an entire video dedicated to Trevor in the near future.😂😂😂
Knowing how much he likes to troll his audience, I wouldn't be surprised- 💀
5:07 N uses a different Pokemon every time EXCEPT Vanilluxe and the Kink he evolves into a Klingklang.
My day gets better every time he uploads.
The fact about Barry is false as of The Indigo Disk, as Nemona and Kieran both have higher levels than Barry, reaching level 87.
7:23
I would argue that you battle Ronald, from the Game Boy Trading Card Game just as much.
If you're genuinely wondering why Trevor isn't included, take up your complaints with Bulbapedia's classification. They don't classify Trevor as a rival, and Alex seems to have referenced their list (minus the rivals that are also player characters, since player characters had their own video)
Thanks for pointing this out. Surprised not many people noticed this. Though it makes me wonder what even qualifies as a rival to Bulbapedia. You fight Shauna and Trevor twice each and Tierno three times. So why are Shauna and Tierno considered rivals but not Trevor? There’s still other characters I’d argue are rivals that are notably absent from the list such as Carmine, Green, and Arven.
N has a catch and release policy
I believe that Sada and Turo use masterballs for their boss fight because of the paradox mon
Yes finally, someone else pointing this out!
4:36 nacrene city lol
2:49 Goated series
Hey Alex forgot to talk about Trevor we should show him some love
I feel like growing up, blues most famous was for sure the pidgeot. I think even pokemon masters has him with that ace.
10:40 Technically, he didn't as Ash ALSO gets a second Dynamax. In the anime, it was explained that Ash's battle with Alain was so intense that it caused the Galar particles in the area to intensify too much, so much so that Eternatus had to intervene to stabilize it, by doing do granting Ash and Leon ANOTHER chance to Dynamax their Pokemon. (even though they already Dynamaxed earlier in the battle with Ash Gigantamaxing Gengar and Leon Gigantamaxing Charizard)
If Aura Guardian ever gets a merch drop, I'm definitely buying his stuff.
The OVA Pokemon Origins did the best job in representing how Blue is. If you grew up during the First Gen you know this was personal.
The final boss of Scar/Vi used a masterball first
9:10 Pretty sure the entirety of the Pokémon of the Team Rainbow Rocket bosses are inside Master Balls in USUM.
Adding to Blue, he also has Blastoise in Pokémon Masters EX
And having Charizard is not a reference to manga, but to an artwork which depicted Blue with the fire starter, Red with the grass starter, and an unknown girl with the water starter, she inspired Green for adventures manga, then inspired Leaf from FRLG and then Green for the Let's Go games
And Blue also has Charizard in Masters EX referencing that fact
9:49 actually, Trip was seen as a cameo in Iris vs. Cynthia.
Richie was indeed cool. I feel his I'm gonna steal the protagonist vibe was a bit unsettling, but I like it.
I loved how all of Richie’s Pokémon had nicknames. As a child I didn’t understand why Ash wouldn’t nickname his Pokémon cause i had certainly nicknamed all of mine in the game
Another fact about Bede. He’s the only rival from sword and shield that didn’t appear in Pokémon Journeys not counting DLC.
I miss rivals who were assholes. Rip Blue and Silver
Kieran isn’t the first npc to use a master ball.. Sada/Turo use one on paradox pokemon in the time machine at the game’s climax, and their whole team is also in master balls. All the leaders from USUM’s Rainbow Rocket storyline also have all their pokemon caught in master balls. Also, just thought I’d point out that Dawn in dppt technically is the first to use a starter weak to yours, not Bianca in b/w.
About Nemona, we never see her Champion Team, she always uses the Pokémon she caugth on her journey alongside us. At least in the main Story, I don't know about the epilogue.
Isn't Nemona's Starter LV 87 in Indigo disc rematch?
My headcanon is that N while walking around unova, finds pokemon and is like, "wanna curbstomp a child with me?" And every time they say yes, which is why he has different teams every fight
That's very well possible, because his team usually consists of the Pokémon you can find in the area, so he probably just use them for the battle and let them free afterwards. HIs final Team are the ones that deicded to stay with him. Oh I just wrote my own headcanon down.
I've got Iron Thorns
Will you make a video about plotlines that were never followed in the anime or games please.
In the Manaphy movie it's shown that the Rocket officers from Legend of Thunder caught Rayquaza. This is never brought up again.
It would be fun if instead of having randomly all different badges, nemona had the same ones, but instead of a ghost badge she has a rock one, because she fought the former gym leader Tyme instead of Ryme
"Let me tell you about this awesome game I've been playing" lol
Didnt really care much for Scarlett and Violet but Nemona was probably my favorite rival.
9:10 not sure if you’d count this, but all the team leaders in the USUM team RR post game ye master balls.
I thought Cheren took over the normal type gym due to his talent and the former desired to retire it was shown in a certain flashback in BW2
Love these kind of fact videos. Not like some other clickbait youtubers that'll say: "Did you know Blue is actually not blue?!?"
Well you see you forgot something related to a character that his name starts with Tr...
Trip has been shown as a background character in journeys
Man just casually left out Trevor and Calem/Serena and thought we wouldn’t notice 😂
He didn't mention Brendan/May too so I guess he's not counting rivals that are just the gender you didn't pick
Would it be crazy if the elite 4 of gen 10 would be composed of previous rivals?
Nemona is super thirsty for the player character lol
Tbf Bede already had half a team of pokémon that gets fairy types after evolving and even after the change 3 of the 5 total he uses are fairy/psychic, which are because of Mr. Mine is an ice type in that region and the other option is an legendary are all the pokémon with that type. (screamtail didn't existed then)
Mr. Yours
@@something6833 Auto correct meant Mr. Mime😅😂
Leon was able to gigantamax thrice because of Eternatus going into the stadium.
Also I think it'd be fun to do facts on all the protagonists, you could even throw in some protagonists from other media like the anime and the various manga
hey man are you going to do a pokedoku submission? i dunno how that works but I see other poketubers making puzzles for it. (I haven't kept up with it every day so sorry if you did one and I missed it as the archive only goes back so far)
Also do you have a second channel for movies? I've been following you on letterboxd for a while but I dunno if you've made any videos on movies. If you collab with IHE then the 2 british Alex's I follow on letterboxd will finally collide
9:13 Not true… Sada and Turo keep their Pokémon in master balls
What he's saying is that he doesn't repeat a Pokeball type.
@@toumabyakuya Uh… no. That was the fact for Gladion
@@omegafinisher845 Oh, now I see what you meant.
Being fair to him, though, Sada/Turo already had their Pokemon caught, with Kieran we are seeing him use one.
@@toumabyakuyaNope, they didn't. The balls drop out of the time machine still shaking.
Unless you mean the actual human Sada and Turo but we never see them battle. We do know they were champion ranked trainers though.
@@BJGvideos What I meant is that we literally don't see them catching the Pokemon. It is already caught by the time we have our boss fight.
Trip was in journey it show him watching the master 8 tournament in the episode when it was Iris vs Cynthia

Honor mentioned before we reach the GOAT: N
And the Strongest of all: Nemona in Academy Tournament when you completed all the quests
N is doing a nuzlocke and nemona is in her 2nd playthrough.
Tera-PAH-gose? Haven't heard anybody say it like that before. Galapagos, terapagos
8:59 Wait where do you see her gym badges? And also is it possible to view ours after that initial photo when you beat them?
They're in her room if I recall
He has *"COME"* back
4:00 Um achually, Nemona and Kieran have level 87 Ace Pokémon in the Blueberry Academy rematches, so Barry isn’t the highest level 🤓
But you do see trip in Pokemon Journeys. He just has a none speaking role while Iris battles Cynthia
5:29 personal favourite ruval
In my moon game hau would sometimes swap his pokemon while I was using a z move, like I used water z and suddenly his vaporion appeared and soaked up the water taking no damage >:(
shadow legends just has everyone as a sponsee which is why they get praised
What happened with Trevor?
I'll do it myself
Trevor is one of the few rivals that has the potential to be a Pokémon professor, or at least a professor assistant, among Blue's counterpart in anime, Gary Oak; Bianca and Hop, as he's very interested in the Pokédex more than in battles
Btw, in anime he has a Mega Charizard Y for an unknown reason
Forgot about Silver "supposedly" being Giovanni's son
Do u call creating if both players agree to delete the rule about only using one megastone, z move or Gigantamax
What about the player character you didn’t pick in gen 3 and 6?
The real fact about all of the rivals: Extremely annoying for wanting to battle all the time
