In the game during the Assessment questions before the Pokemon League, I picked Larry and really thought I was gonna help him get a promotion or something 😂😂
Same, but it seemed like Geeta wasn't on board with it lol.
thinking about it, that quiz may be to pick which gym leader would swap in for the third elite 4 member. unfortunately with how surprisingly hard larry was for some people and how popular he is with a lot of others, he likely will be stuck as the 3rd elite member for another year again.
@@ravenschippers8267 Poor guy
@@ravenschippers8267 that would be cool and I believe I picked Grusha because he? was the hardest gym leader but Iona is my favorite gym leader this generation
In the Indigo Disk DLC, you can arrange a rematch with many notable Paldean trainers, Larry included. If you chose Larry during Rika’s Elite Four interview and eventually talk to him in the League Club room at Blueberry Academy, he’ll bring it up and express confusion over why you chose him. It’s a pretty sweet detail.
My first thought when experiencing Larry while experiencing Scarlet and Violet was: "How is this guy not an entire fourth wall break?"
It's pretty much exactly what he is haha.
Larry is the average GamefrEAk employee
I feel he also hints at the conditions caused by the toxic work environment of black companies which seem to be a bit too common in Japan (multiple anime and manga series have mentioned them)
Funnily enough, when entering the Elite Four and being asked about which Leader left the most impression, Larry was far and the above the only option I even considered. Most of the other names I couldn't even put a face to. Larry's simplicity truly was his most brilliant and distinguishing trait.
This is absolutely true lol.
Simplicity is best
I think everyone tried to get Larry a promotion in the assessment, and he deserves a raise
Yes, Geeta needs to pay the man his dues.
A little detail i love about Larry is how his tie (even during his gym battle) has clouds on it, hinting at his flying type team when you battle him later as an elite 4 member.
Yeah, it's a nice touch!
It's simple but it really suits him.
When you were a kid, you dreamed of being Red. When you grew up, you turned into Larry. :P
Haha if I could pin this I would. 😂
This isn't bad. Working hard and doing a necessary but uneventful job is what keeps the world running.
In fact, a lot of people in their 20s and 30s would love to have a stable office job.
@@elihan9 idk, if it wete ebough to rent an apartment in this rconomy, i think mpst people would prefer to worj part time
Lessons with Larry:
1. You can't live selfishly and expect the world to care about you.
2. Function over form. Don't make things overly complicated.
3. Work hard to appreciate the little things in life.
Even you life selfless.
The world NEVER cares about you.
I think the attenion Larry gets can be explained like this: When you hear constant noise, the moment of silence stands out.
You know what? It would have been 10x better if in Medali Town, Larry was the one who asks you to beat a number of trainers in the area to give you a reward, because every other Pokémon League representative that does the job also wear a fairly similar attire to Larry. XD More work for him to do. XD
Lol that would be a nice touch. :D
well , maybe we'll see him again in the second part of the dlc
Might I also just add, Larry's Elite Four team is actually weak to a "shock" factor which also brings up the lesson that sometimes you need to jolt your senses
That's a great point. :)
I would say the rivals of gen 8 and 9 all learn this lesson. To become more than just the best and dedicate themselves to more that what we do as the player. Bede becomes a gym leader, Hop a professor, Marnie was always a community leader kind of, the student three all find more by the end of their adventures in Area Zero
Well said! A lot of good messages tucked away in the games.
I like Larry even more. You gave me more insight about his character.
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video, Angela! Thanks for watching.
I made sure to fight Larry last in the post game just so I could end off my gym fights with the best
It's the best way to do it haha.
I played the game entirely blind and threw a Clodside at Larry's Staraptor. You can probably guess what happened next.
Most memorable defeat in the game.
I can imagine lol.
I vibe with Larry. He's so relatable with how mundane my life feels and being kinda burned out and tired with college lol. ^^'
Haha he is a relatable guy in many ways, that's for sure. I can also relate to his love for zarusoba lol.
When everyone is Extraordinary, Ordinary becomes Extraordinary.
That's the irony of it all for sure.
makes me think of Syndrome from The Incredibles 'If every on is Super, then no one will be."
Larry using Flying-types while on the Elite Four reminds me of the song Tsuabsa wo Kudasai, the quintessential Japanese graduation song.
That's a good reference. :)
Larry is the one I relate with in any Pokemon characters from the main games thus far.
He is definitely a relatable guy lol.
Meanwhile in japan:
"Here's the power of the working class"
Staraptor used *Fake Happiness*
Yes lol.
But isn’t it ironic that the only reason people seem to like Larry so much is because compared to the rest of the cast, he’s ‘different’? So he kind of subverts his own message. The guy is also clearly miserable and uses a Staraptor as his ace, I wouldn’t go taking life advice from him. The other gym leaders seem to have far more fulfilling day jobs too.
Haha I think a lot of the appeal is that he's more relatable to the average working adult than Iono, Grusha, etc., but you have a point about the Staraptor. 👀
I'm so glad that the character I identify with and love the most in Pokémon, also shares my name. I may not be a salary man, but that 9 to 5 grind, and other responsibilities, but the personality behind it, we all can understand. Kids, don't let yourself become trapped in a drab boring life, take risks, and contribute to society, while also having fun and letting your creativity and passions flourish.
Yes! Make the best of whatever your situation is, but go off the beaten path from time to time and have fun. :)
Larry is a great character . Every Gen, there is almost always that memorable character, and Larry is Gen 9's memorable character .
It also helps that my co-worker and friend is an older gentleman whose name is Larry and is very boring, lol 😆 and also has white hair
LOL I also had an older coworker named Larry who was exactly like that years ago.
In a way we can all live like Larry
Yes, yes we can haha.
Be true to more than just yourself.
Resist the shock factor (less is more; simplest is strongest).
Embrace life’s simple pleasures.
SV is starting to look more and more like a textbook on positive intelligence (especially the parts with Larry). I’m reading a book about it with a men’s group that I’ve joined, and this talk is lining up with some of the things from that book. ( by Shirzad Chamine, in case you’re interested or haven’t read it.)
Any Hau, I’ll just have my Tera-Normal Staraptor use Return and hope it crits the Like Button.
They're good takeaways for good living! Glad you are getting value out of your group and the reading!
I remember one fan-video where they give him the fan backstory that he was from our word and got Isekai's to the Pokemon world...from one black Company to another.
As a person who has played Pokémon since I was 9 and has been working in an office job for the past year, I related to Larry so much and he was one of my favorite characters off the bat!
I adore Larry for real. he really is such a great character. he gave me such a hard time I had to challenge him 4 times before winning. also side note, when youre talking about being true to more than just your self , I really appreciate the transition of Bede there bc his character developement is SO under rated.
Larry was already a fan favorite for many but your video just cemented this even further for me :D
Glad it deepened your appreciate for The Larry! :D
The funniest thing about Larry's elite four team is that his ace is one of the most normal looking animal/Pokemon. I can see why Salamence wouldn't suit Larry as his ace.
Quick addendum to the whole “this is why Japan is such a safe and cultured place to live” bit;
Japan is not all rising suns and rainbows, mainly due to the overt prioritization of the expectations of society (avoiding social discord whenever possible) over the principles and worries of the individual. There are many times when someone overtly wrong is happening in broad daylight and nobody seems to care, such as a molestation incident on a train or someone that seems to be stalking someone else, not because nobody actually cares, but because nobody wants to be the person who draws attention to it. Nobody wants to be the bee who buzzes out of tune.
This is why principles are so important, because your principles will be there to help you do the right thing, even when society expects otherwise.
Taking "living like Larry" to a whole new meaning.
Larry is just so relatable. I was at the height of working very very hard at my job when Scarlet and Violet came out so I just resonated with Larry.
"So here's whst you do when she tries to take the kids" I'm dying 😂 So dark, so true, so good 😂
Plot twist, Larry is Ash’s biological father. Imagine the contrast of gun-ho adventure loving Ash being the son of disgruntled salary man, Larry. Would explain why Mr. Ketchum is always away like Deku’s dad. And could tie in with the little we know about the real Mr. ketchum, went off on a journey and never returned, feeling like a failure, but actually made it big, but doesn’t actually feel big.
I would like to propose the idea of another trainer that has been mentioned in the game but never made an appearance in-game to come in and take Larry's place in the Elite Four. Of course this isn't going to happen let alone would anyone else give it any thought or consideration. But I would like to propose that another flying specialist and Falkner's dad, Walker, be the one to take his place. I believe it would've been a great post game inclusion for the Elite Four rematch battles.
That would be fun. :)
@@charusharu I also believe Larry would be relieved as well.
Our man Larry…..he definitely deserves that cup of coffee ☕️ after our recent encounters/events with him.
He sure does haha.
Honestly a cup of coffee is the least we could get Larry considering all the joy he's brought us. Even more so when you consider that he paid for your meal
One of my favorite theory is that Larry is an isekai'd average man.
Larry talking about simplicity reminds me of how people were relieved back in Pokemon Sword / Shield because Piers didn't Dynamax. So it was just a regular ol gym battle. Maybe Larry is Gamefreak acknowledging that
Hmm...does every Gym Leader have at least one other job outside of being a gym leader?
There's an artist, a baker, an influencer, a rapper, an office worker, a skier, a model, and a chef.
He’s my second favorite gym leader. Kofu is my number 1. Larry is very relatable, and I had a feeling he'd be popular. I just didn't know he'd be this popular. 😅 Totally get it tho
Yeah, I didn't expect him to be as popular as he is haha.
Is the jolly demeanor of Kofu what appeals to you?
Had to stop bc my 9 year old is getting ready for school and we were watching together and she was learning from your points and presentation.
Great job! You will make a good father 🥳
I'm glad you two found it interesting. :)
And thank you! I'm looking forward to fatherhood. 👨👧👦
@@charusharu you keep it respectful and clean but make it clear and interesting. You are one of my favorite content creators
Always happy to see more of your videos, and thanks for responding 🥳
Hope you have an incredible weekend
@@charusharu also! Congratulations!! 🥳
This has got to be some of the realist shit I've ever heard.
Nothing like some real talk to start the week haha.
Love the video, the message at the end is a little..... sad, though. Essentially the message is "have no hope that anything will get better, accept that you will have to work 18 hours a day at 3 different jobs just to pay for your right to exist, and use your free time to pretend for at least a few minutes that everything is okay." Seems a little hopeless to me, but 🤷🏽♂️
Glad you enjoyed it! I will say that this is your own interpretation of the message, though. To me, it's about taking a holistic approach to living, avoiding superficial distractions from what is actually meaningful, and being thankful for life's simple pleasures regardless of our circumstances. It isn't to say we shouldn't work hard to improve our circumstances, better our lives, and have fun while we're at it. :)
That Honne and Tatemae explanation helped me to understand the prevalence of what are called Hikkikomori and the like in Japanese culture. The entire concept of the culture expects you to read the room, just fills me with dread because of my form of autism. Such a culture would naturally ostracise those that do not understand what the majority considers "common sense".
You make videos which has scripts like these always show me how smart and well educated you are👏👏👏👏
Glad you enjoy them! Thanks as always for the support. :)
yo Larry, same-- one of the best things for me is going in a coffee shop and getting brewed coffee with French toast.
just chilling with coffee and bread
I really like these character videos, and I get to learn more about Japanese culture
Thank you
Awesome! Glad you're enjoying them and thanks for watching. :)
Larry is sooooo many people's spirit animal.
He sure is lol.
One fun headcanon I heard about Larry is that he was Isekai'd to the world of pokemon. It would be funny as hell if that were true
if you told me he was isekai'd here after getting hit by a semi, i'd believe you
"....and after defeating Lynn and Chiotsu.."
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol glad you appreciated those references. :D
For the assessment, i couldn't decide between Brassius, Larry, or Grusha. Based on their backstories, all 3 of them need a hug.
Huh... I have seen Kodoku no Gourmet, but never realized the similarity between the two.
Yeah, his underhand ball-throw is also likened to that of Hanshin Tigers pitcher Koyo Aoyagi.
Your analyses are often so profound, I'm glad you make Pokémon videos because I'm sure you can make videos about anything with how wise your perspectives are!
I always enjoy your videos they are so comfy and interesting
Glad to hear it! It means a lot. :)
Cup of coffee? Nah fam give the man a vacation!
He could use it, that's for sure haha.
Larry is an characichure of the Japanese Buisnessman.
So he's Yoshikage Kira minus the hand fetish and human murder.
Pretty much lol
Ok this might not be Pokemon related but he literally said the reason why I chose IOS over android, simplicity is king and Apple are the kings of simplicity in the phone department. Yah that’s the main reason, the simplicity
That's a great example. Less complexity, less decision-making = more mental energy & time for other things.
Larry is one of those few people in the Pokemon Franchise who lives life as it is. And yes, being true to yourself and more, and appreciate life's simple things.
That is what makes main characters.
Doing the opposite of that is what make villains.
(Also saw Ash, Tobias, and Pokemon Coliseum references. It was very funny.)
Yes! Also, glad you enjoyed those references haha.
Huh. Yeah. Most of the villians in Pokemon want something more... and it's often something extreme.
Reject shock factor, return to Larry.
Why do I feel like Larry is me in the future and get this man a coffe☕️ and rise in pay at his job
Haha hope you enjoy the 35 cups of coffee a day. :P
With learning the three life lessons from our favorite generic businessman, I think I found my treasure... the journey of life is one's greatest treasure.
That is a wonderful takeaway. :)
Larry is my favourite gym leader so thank you for this!
My pleasure, Jon! Thanks for watching.
Scarlet and Violet got a little too real at multiple points. Dealing with bullies and how you sometimes get punished for standing up to them, having to deal with absent parents, and dealing with the everyday grind like Larry. Heck, even the last line of the main story of "Let's take the long way home" hits a little too close. For all its performance issues, S/V's execution of it's characters and relatable themes are some of the best in the series
Yeah, it touched on some dark themes. They did a pretty good job with the characters and storylines. :)
Thank you for another great video Charles!! Hope you and weiwei are doing well!! 🎉❤🙏🏻
Thanks! Btw I saw your comment about the Serena video but can't recall where it was. If you drop an email to my charusharuofficial gmail account I can send you a link to that video.
@@charusharu I sent a email to your email 🙏🏻 it’ll be from a yahoo account. Thank you again so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻hopefully I typed in the email correctly when I sent it. It’s from my frozen girl email. I appreciate all you do truly. You make amazing videos. And my friends enjoy them too. God bless.
As a Swedish high school student I sadly can't relate to Larry, still love him tho. For me Penny is the most relationer character
I think that's a nice point of the game - there are all sorts of characters for different people to relate to. :)
Larry is by far the strongest Normal type Gym leader (more powerful than Norman and Nora).
What about Whitney?
Do you mean Lenora?
@@madnessarcade7447 No. Whitney. The girl from Gen 2 with the Miltank.
@@madnessarcade7447 Lenora’s Watchog is tough too though.
did not expect Kodoku no Gurume shoutout here
…or…
A single level one hundred Gholdengo.
🤣🤣🤣
I just love Larry because he's the gym leader I always imagined I wanna be.
You know, this video has really helped me be more grounded with my views. Everyone around me expects so much from me and wants me to do and be more, but I can only give so much and be more than what I am.
So what if I don't like to party, drink, smoke, or even go out of the house often, I am doing what I feel comfortable with. And yes, I step up when I need to, push myself a little too hard sometimes, but who doesn't? I finally found the reason I resonated with Larry the first time I came across him in the game.
Thank you for this video. I needed it today after my therapy session.
My pleasure!
When I first saw Larry I immediately was floored by how plain he was. It was just perfect.
13:24
Grusha's nihilistic? Didn't expect that...
Charles chill! Banger after banger … this video hit hard haha
Glad you enjoyed it. :D
Larry. Just a regular everyday normal guy.
Very "Normal" indeed.
First there's: *LIVING LIKE LARRY!*
Then there's: Living like Larry
This video should be viral
Not only is Larry working as both gym leader and E4 member, but I wouldn’t doubt he’s the one picking up the slack for the fact that poppy’s literally a toddler and can’t actually do work outside battles
This is such a great video with such a true and impactful meaning, I appreciate your hard work and dedication to this and all your other videos!
Really happy to hear you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind words! It means a lot.
wait... people thought Larry was a hard fight?
Battling NPCs in a Pokemon game is like being Lionel Messi and showing up to a community soccer league match, but relatively speaking, he's decent enough compared to the other gym leaders. Pretty Normal, even.
Throughout the video just had one thing to say...
My man said the truth👍
I completely agree with All three life lessons
They're useful takeaways!
Larry should have been the champion trainer.
I support this idea.
The shock factor line was the one that spoke the loudest to me. Something id been noticing from more and more people over the years including those who i used to consider friends
"I'm just having fun quit being so uptight" they tell me. Then they proceed to start complaining that their lives have gotten so boring and stale and people have been ghosting them lately. Like yeah, no shit. They go so over the top trying be a unique a quirky individual that they repel others, then burn themselves out trying to keep that act up
Dude needs a vacation too
I wonder where Larry goes on vacations.
@@charusharu I bet he visits restaurants and enjoys different foods
4:07-4:08 WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT MY SON?!?!?!?!?!?
Just coffee?! I will make him a meal and coffee he deserves that much
🗣️ LIVING LIKE LARRY!!!!!
*Patrick voice*
Haha I haven't watched much of Spongebob but I looked that up.
on the topic of Larry, THIS is why representation is important!!
from time to time, we all need someone to resonate with us
tho the execution is another topic, nevertheless the point still stands
Did anyone else catch the embedded Rickroll at 12:17 ?
I just want to not freeze to death during winter
"SkilShaaaareeeed"
I thought he was modeled after Nicolas Cage. Ya learn something new every day.
Great video for the greatest S/V character!
Thanks, Dan!
Dude has THREE jobs. Elite four, Gym leader and his salary job that apparently is designing battle courts? (According to a conversation with Rhyme), and Geeta is just like "You would do ANYTHING for your job? Ok, please represent Paldea at some country's trainer conference."
He needs a vacation...
Larry wouldn't have alimony payments. Any woman would be lucky to hold on to a Larry
I just wish the other elite four weren't so bland looking themselves it takes away from larry gimmick of being the boring one when all the others are wearing something gray or dark
