@@Cupdev I’d say agumon’s yellower than anything sometimes. That plus there is definitely things you can do to differentiate an orange lizard. Varying art style, or like say, adding more to the orange lizard than just, orange lizard. Honestly feels so weird how so often I hear “there’s only so many ways you can differentiate X.” In regards to monster catchers nowadays. Feels like too many people don’t care about being all that analytical about this sort of thing or really comprehending character design that much.
Tbf They are very different aesthetic approaches to an orange lizard, and vary drastically in further appearance. If someone says greymon looks like charizard they are crazy. The art style also drastically helps separate. Palmon could learn a lot from having a unique aesthetic. Legit show a person not familiar with modern pokemon official digimon art and they could tell that aint a digimon. Show them a palworld design and you'd probably stump them.
Here's an interesting thing about Digimon is that it was indeed influenced by Pokemon, but not in the way people might think. Digimon originally started development as Capsule Zaurus & it was to be a v-pet successor to Bandai's old Pocket Zaurus toy line with cute toyetic elemental monsters that could fight one another. Once rumours of a Nintendo published game called "Capsule Monsters" made the rounds, the whole project was overhauled to avoid legal trouble & Digimon co-creator & artist Kenji Watanabe was delighted to design monsters inspired by the likes of Go Nagi, Todd McFarlane, & Simon Bisley.
they really tried to not be similar to pokemon which is funny to me. they just wanted to make a vpet where you battle with the monsters and then have been compared to a monster catching rpg for over 2 decades ;-;
"A ghost becomes a hamster-bat which then turns into Biblically accurate RoboCop" has now become my favorite Harry Gold quote, dethroning "being hit by a pillow that's strapped to a fighter jet". How is it that your comedy is as good as your art? That's no easy feat XD Edit: OMG that Truegreen7 cameo! XD Simply glorious
13:00 "The only thing that could be more authentically pokemon would be releasing this video twice the same day and expecting people to pay for both!" C'mon Harry, you have to release "I turned Pokémon into Digimon! (And Vice Versa)" Now.
As a digimon kid, this pleases me. Also, as to why Digimon lines are so abrupt and random, its models. When they evolve, they're increasing to a form with higher data capacity, and the models for that aren't always directly related to what they were previously. They are quite literally accessing preexisting assets half the time, which is also why two of the same Digimon are generally identical.
@@siraaron4462 They aren't 3d models. What they're trying to describe is a comparison to 3d models that get more polygons when they have a higher data capacity as they evolve thus becoming more complex. And the 'assets' part is the borrowing of preexisting data created from our computers. It's why the digital world is an amalgamation of natural structures like forests and mountains mixed with man-made things like capacitors, led lights and wires. So digimon may have tank treads, guns and other factory fabricated objects to even folklore references from stories.
@@Tobeast250 wait till you hear that you have just one digimon instead of a party of them because your digimon is a reflection of your own heart and core, and its evolutions are a reflection of your decisions either good, beautiful, bad or rotten
2:18 their evolution lines also converge all the time. Using the pikachu raikou example, within digimon it would also be possible for meowth, nidoran, and tyrunt to all become raikou if they tried hard enough. And fans add digimon to lines theyre not technically a part of all the time, like having fanbeemon evolve into dokugumon. Not technically possible but fans will allow it.
@JDReC100 I know, they mentioned fans using Fanbeemon in fake lines which iirc is something a Digimon content creator by the name of KarnEX likes to do (or maybe it's that he doesn't like to do that, either way he talks about it happening often) It was just a bad joke lol
Digimon are badass monsters that look like they’d rip you apart Pokémon are cuter and look like they’d be your friend There are of course exceptions on both sides, but that’s the most basic way I’d describe their differences
@@MrIljuha2000 Pokemon also does the same, the only real difference of digimon and pokemon monster designs is that pokemon focus in letting kids have a chance to draw their fav monsters so they don't tend to make overcomplicated designs. We only see more of the cute pokemons because people like them more, but every gen is filled with cool, edgy and ugly designs too
As a lifelong Digimon fan it's very on brand for Pikachumon's final form to be basically a buff dude wearing Pikachu as a hat. It tragically happens to more Digimon than we'd like
This was definitely my favorite video of yours. As someone who's a big fan of Digimon and Pokemon, I loved a lot of the things you pointed out about the art style and design philosophy of both franchises that makes them stand out.
Even though Digimon evolutionary lines are so inconsistent in tone and illogical from their previous forms I still dig it, adds a lot of chaos to the mix like a Kinder Surprise. Thanks again Harry for the Gold.
Digimon are constantly taking in data from their environment and the other Digimon they fight, they change to suit the environment and adapt to their enemies. Like real evolution. If a Digimon absorbs enough data from a machine type Digimon, it will become a machine type (A.K.A. Greymon becoming MetalGreymon) Also, think of "Mon" like a file name .mon < Every Digimon is a .mon file The data they take will edit the file, if there's enough of it. Agu.mon Grey.mon Metal_Grey.mon War_Grey.mon And since Digimon die and are reborn as eggs, any Digimon can become any other Digimon if the conditions are right.
That Truegreen7 bit was amazing! I loved it so much. The caricature at the end is CG5, I forgot what first made him famous, I know it was stupid songs, but which one boosted him? Probably fnaf or something

These look awesome. My siblings and I grew up on both Pokemon and Digimon, they were a big part of our childhoods. I brought my brother a digimion model kit for his birthday, and a relative asked "what's the difference s between Pokemon and Digimon", I said that Digimon is the edge lord younger brother to Pokemon, I think that's the best way to put it. But I still love both in their own ways. You are such a chameleon with art styles, I am so jealous, your art is amazing. Looking forward to more.

Digimon do have different colors while still being the same digimon. Some will have good vs black. There is a blue metal greymon. There is a pink, and a black, terriermon final evolution. There is a black a a white Gotomon. There is a black and a white wargreymon and metalgarurumon. Cyberslueth (I am playing it right now) has all of them as options. I am honestly loving the game way more than the last 5 pokemon games too.
@@1faithchick7 metalgreymon (virus) is an interesting case it was the original metalgreymon but since they swapped in the orange version as the normal metalgreymon, it has kind of become a separate digimon with a different attribute and different digivolutions.
Ironically, every time Harry said evolve before replacing the word with something less punny given this video's about Pokemon and Digimon, he was actually using the word more accurately than either franchise ever did.
The amount of effort put into the presentation, let alone the primary subject of the video itself, its absolutely lovely. Even the advertisement was pleasant to watch. All around, excellent work.
It would probably be a more edgy world. People already blame Pokémon for violence now. Imagine what people would think when they see all the claws and spikes.
i love digimon since a child, what makes me a fan is digimon are intelligent, they are killing machines but they just want to live their lives, so they fight over politics instead of competition my favourite episode is togemon's kindergarten, togemon is a boxing cactus, despite her tough exterior she doesnt shy away from her femininity, you better not mess with her little students because she will punch your face. But in this episode, the enemy cant be punched, the enemy is a typhoon, a horrible flood destroys her kindergarten and togemon is completely out of her element symbolized by her being a cactus. Her students are mostly water types, so they can easily escape, but thats means togemon will drawn, but they cant do that because they love mrs togemon. Beautiful
I love the quantity of stuff in your videos. I feel like a lot of similar pokemon art creators would just have 2-3 designs per video, but you do significantly more on top of substantiating with comedy and writing. Even your ad-reads are high effort, which is a rarity on this platform. Def subbed 👍
There was a little failure in your "evolution-tree" nyaromon (babylevel) does not go straith to gatomon (champion level). There is the Rookyform Salamon between ^^
You're such a good caricaturist that i can instantly tell whether you're drawing someone I've seen before because if I know them, I'll recognize them. I definitely don't know this guy.
Everybody tells me that this looks like CG5 What they don't know is Harry Gold's caricatures are specimens so divine So I reached out to him in a youtube comment And in a couple of ways I've been blown away Just take a look the vids he has maaaade~
As a fan of borh pokemon and digimon. The stages of Digimon, along with some examples, go as such: Baby In-training Rookie Champion Ultimate Mega Ultra (these aren't common) There are also armor forms, but they are not very consistent level-wise with each other. They are usually champion, though.
Why is Ultimate not the last? Why is In-training and Rookie not the same and wouldn't you be In-training to go up the stages. Why as a Rookie just straight to Champion why is there no adviced in the middle or something. Guess in translation the words changed meaning.
@@samuelvillaroel2414 Those are the americanized evolution tiers, a.k.a. the wrong one. The actual evolution tiers are: Egg Baby Baby II Child Adult Perfect Ultimate Mega That's the standard chart, there's also various other modes and evolutions that can be achieved. Dark Evolution (A Digimon that is either mistreated or influenced by the negative emotions of its Tamer will reach this state) Armor Evolution Jogress Evolution (Two Digimon combining to create a new one, "Jogress" being a combination of "Joint" and "Progress") Mode Change (Certain Digimon can switch between various modes, E.I. Imperialdramon Wing Mode / Paladin Mode) Matrix Evolution (Humans combining with Digimon) Spirit Evolution (Humans transforming into Digimon by inheriting Legendary Warrior spirits) Burst Mode (A Digimon that is already powerful, transforming itself to double its stats) X-Antibody Evolution (This one is lore heavy. A destructive virus called the "X-Program" ravaged the Digital World, killing 98% of Digimon. Those who survived, developed something called an "X-Antibody" that allowed them to adapt to this harmful virus and turn it into strength) Digi Xros (Two or more Digimon literally combining like Megazords) Death Evolution (A Digimon dying in order to achieve a powerful evolution) Bond Of Courage / Bond Of Friendship (To avoid mega huge spoilers, I won't elaborate on this one. But these two forms are exclusive to Digimon Adventure, and come at a heavy cost.)
@inkchariot6147 pretty sure it's super ultimate, but yes. And they're not wrong, they're just different. Also, dark evolution, armor evolution, jogress evolution, matrix evolution, spirit evolution, death evolution, and death x evolution are all just different ways to evolve/digivolve (if you want to be American) DigiXros is not evolution; it's its own thing. X-antibody evolution is debatable about weather or not it is proper evolution. And also, I was going to explain the Japanese levels before you posted your comment.
Amazing video as always, an enjoyable sponsor segment, and a funny cameo at the end. Awesome.❤ That is indeed CG5 I believe, or Charlie Green for short!
13:42 Hey now, credit where it's due. Digimon started making short films before Pokemon's anime came out (apparently they were testing into the kaiju movie market as a different approach). They also _started_ as digital pets, whereas Pokemon came out with their digital pet Pikachu years later. It also looks like Digimon beat Pokemon to the punch with their manga. Yes, Pokemon had a TCG first. And, yes, Bandai very much did take some repeated steps from Gamefreak (TCG, those were fairly common steps.
You mentioned how the art style for Pokemon changed, yet failed to mention how the Digimon style changed as well. Sure, the 'taxidermied-looking eyes' are still there. However, the harsh black shadows and grungier look faded away. Other than that, amazing video
In case you're curious, take a look at the most recent Digimon, like Shoemon & Cendrillmon for further context I still find it funny how the mega digivolution of a shoe is a cinderella themed digimon
Im a huge Yo-Kai watch fan, and Id love to see a video like this but for pokemon and Yo-Kai watch, especially from Harry Gold. But just seeing it referenced for a split second was still enough to stimulate my neurons. Also, CG5 is the charicature (Seriously though Harry Gold, you're content is incredible)
i’m always so impressed by your art!! You’re able to imitate styles so authentically! as for the caricature, methinks that’s the music artist CG5!🤯 kinda crazy to see him here when normally you do big actors and celebrities. my boy’s really moving up in the world!
Harry Gold is what AI wishes it could be, Something that can Replace All Artists XD. He's just sooo Good! Also the Animation on the sponsors are just so appealing to watch!
Your videos are always amazing, truly golden content. They are entertaining, funny, with a very original style to it, and not only impressively amazing art pieces who inspire me greatly and always leave me dumb-founded in their quality, due to your expert skill at analysing art styles. I am very admirative!
i am absolutely weeping at the inclusion of yo-kai watch at 1:18!!!!😭 i would absolutely recommend you (or anyone who is interested) look into that franchise because it is so much more than a “pokemon clone”
Several Pokemon are either reskinned Dragon Quest tropes and numerous beta and unused designs were just Ultraman fan characters including the finalized Staryu but you are totally not allowed to question Pokemon's ""originality"" lol.
@@DrCoeloCephalo those said Pokémon are also like. Really really old designs in terms of time. And also said notorious image commenting that, includes a comparison between a dog, and cat on it. So frankly it seems rather unserious. Honestly just saying this because the “Pokémon ripped off dragon quest designs” type of discourse that started cause of palworld is so tiring and just disappointing to me. It farts like, SO MUCH in the face of the history and clear developmental line in Pokémon’s approach to designing monsters. How Gen 1 just generally pales in the comparison to the amount of thought they actually try with now regarding more recent entry’s. It’d egg me as much if people simplified Yo-Kai watch and Digimon this hard too. It’s ridiculous. And also it just seems like such a poor way of trying to get people to stop calling Palworld designs just “Pokémon rip-offs”, cause at this point I’d question if it even worked, since people still seem to take that exact potshot. Really all it did is make there be a boon of people with weird amounts of spite or beef towards Pokémon. I just don’t like it. Seems braindead.
8:29 Hey, hey, wait a second! That's not the right stage! Gatomon's a champion (for some reason) and typically evolves from Salamon! This is a stage below that Though I guess it does look better cohesion wise. 13:35 Both were created at around the same time and released months apart, by the way I know he's just doing funny commentary, but I just wanted to point that out
Looks like you focused mostly on the original 90s Digimon artstyle. It has changed a lot over the years, even more dramatically than Pokemon has changed.
Not me thinking I would hear something new or different about digimon, everyone not normally interested in the franchise says the same stuff 😩 Great art tho, it was fun looking at it anyway!
Wow dude. I knew you were good, but 3d-animating a photo real CG version of me for your bit is NEXT LEVEL!

I love the quantity of stuff in your videos. I feel like a lot of similar pokemon art creators would just have 2-3 designs per video, but you do significantly more on top of substantiating with comedy and writing. Even your ad-reads are high effort, which is a rarity on this platform. Def subbed 👍
There was a little failure in your "evolution-tree" nyaromon (babylevel) does not go straith to gatomon (champion level). There is the Rookyform Salamon between ^^
Sir? Are you watching me? I logged on to TH-cam for some Pokedigi content. Didn't expect you to have me covered so well. Great vid!

My full name is Crap Gorps. Crap is short for Crapton and Gorps is short for InGorporation.
Who dares make JelloApocalypse references in my comments section
@@TheHarryGoldShow I dare
The truegreen7 joke was the digicherry on this digivideo
7:32 so… still just Trump?
the Pokémon-ified Kabuterimon was amazing, i loved seeing all of the designs
ahh yeah Harry Gold the man who somehow knows every art style and is able to mimic them...what is your secret mr.gold do i need to sell my soul?
You're such a good caricaturist that i can instantly tell whether you're drawing someone I've seen before because if I know them, I'll recognize them. I definitely don't know this guy.
As a kid I loved both digimon and pokemon.
great video but i will note an innacuracy being that that isn't gatomon's pre-evolution, but its pre-pre-evolution
Everybody tells me that this looks like CG5
What they don't know is Harry Gold's caricatures are specimens so divine
So I reached out to him in a youtube comment
And in a couple of ways
I've been blown away
Just take a look the vids he has maaaade~
Also your sponsor segments are so good I hope sponsors pay you highly for these
As a fan of borh pokemon and digimon.
The stages of Digimon, along with some examples, go as such:
Baby
In-training
Rookie
Champion
Ultimate
Mega
Ultra (these aren't common)
There are also armor forms, but they are not very consistent level-wise with each other. They are usually champion, though.
Why is Ultimate not the last? Why is In-training and Rookie not the same and wouldn't you be In-training to go up the stages. Why as a Rookie just straight to Champion why is there no adviced in the middle or something. Guess in translation the words changed meaning.
@@samuelvillaroel2414 Those are the americanized evolution tiers, a.k.a. the wrong one.
The actual evolution tiers are:
Egg
Baby
Baby II
Child
Adult
Perfect
Ultimate
Mega
That's the standard chart, there's also various other modes and evolutions that can be achieved.
Dark Evolution (A Digimon that is either mistreated or influenced by the negative emotions of its Tamer will reach this state)
Armor Evolution
Jogress Evolution (Two Digimon combining to create a new one, "Jogress" being a combination of "Joint" and "Progress")
Mode Change (Certain Digimon can switch between various modes, E.I. Imperialdramon Wing Mode / Paladin Mode)
Matrix Evolution (Humans combining with Digimon)
Spirit Evolution (Humans transforming into Digimon by inheriting Legendary Warrior spirits)
Burst Mode (A Digimon that is already powerful, transforming itself to double its stats)
X-Antibody Evolution (This one is lore heavy. A destructive virus called the "X-Program" ravaged the Digital World, killing 98% of Digimon. Those who survived, developed something called an "X-Antibody" that allowed them to adapt to this harmful virus and turn it into strength)
Digi Xros (Two or more Digimon literally combining like Megazords)
Death Evolution (A Digimon dying in order to achieve a powerful evolution)
Bond Of Courage / Bond Of Friendship (To avoid mega huge spoilers, I won't elaborate on this one. But these two forms are exclusive to Digimon Adventure, and come at a heavy cost.)
@inkchariot6147 pretty sure it's super ultimate, but yes. And they're not wrong, they're just different.
Also, dark evolution, armor evolution, jogress evolution, matrix evolution, spirit evolution, death evolution, and death x evolution are all just different ways to evolve/digivolve (if you want to be American)
DigiXros is not evolution; it's its own thing.
X-antibody evolution is debatable about weather or not it is proper evolution.
And also, I was going to explain the Japanese levels before you posted your comment.
12:15 Seeing Raikoumon as Pikamon's Mega stage is something I never knew I needed.
Amazing video as always, an enjoyable sponsor segment, and a funny cameo at the end. Awesome.❤
That is indeed CG5 I believe, or Charlie Green for short!
Rad video, your humor is fantastic!! Also I think the caricature is of CG5? Hope I got that one, it's my first time guessing.
AINT NO WAY MY FAVORITE POKETUBER GOT A PART HERE!!
This was great! Please do more like this!
I absolutely LOVE the Pokémon versions of Digimon?? They look like they'd fit into the franchise
And is that cg5 the music artist??? 😭
Haha, GOLD and GREEN. Both your names were Pokémon games!😮
babe wake up, harry gold dropped peak
13:42 Hey now, credit where it's due. Digimon started making short films before Pokemon's anime came out (apparently they were testing into the kaiju movie market as a different approach). They also _started_ as digital pets, whereas Pokemon came out with their digital pet Pikachu years later. It also looks like Digimon beat Pokemon to the punch with their manga. Yes, Pokemon had a TCG first.
And, yes, Bandai very much did take some repeated steps from Gamefreak (TCG, those were fairly common steps.
Ain't no way 7:29
You mentioned how the art style for Pokemon changed, yet failed to mention how the Digimon style changed as well. Sure, the 'taxidermied-looking eyes' are still there. However, the harsh black shadows and grungier look faded away.
Other than that, amazing video
In case you're curious, take a look at the most recent Digimon, like Shoemon & Cendrillmon for further context
I still find it funny how the mega digivolution of a shoe is a cinderella themed digimon
The Caricature is cg5
The Ron cameo with him deadpan talking about his ongoing digimon series was iconic
I’m probably too late but I do believe that is Charlie Green (CG5)
"oi! My mother was garbage!" is gold ngl. Too bad I never feel like getting displate
Harry is so powerful even his ad breaks are impressive, I fear we'll need to contain him for our safety
Im a huge Yo-Kai watch fan, and Id love to see a video like this but for pokemon and Yo-Kai watch, especially from Harry Gold. But just seeing it referenced for a split second was still enough to stimulate my neurons. Also, CG5 is the charicature (Seriously though Harry Gold, you're content is incredible)
im gonna guess ludwig van beethoven good video, the very old show
Your art and editing skills are unreal
wait gumshoos does have some of his ear missing how has no one pointed this out
i’m always so impressed by your art!! You’re able to imitate styles so authentically!
as for the caricature, methinks that’s the music artist CG5!🤯 kinda crazy to see him here when normally you do big actors and celebrities. my boy’s really moving up in the world!
LET HIM COOK!!!
Thanks for the shock of imagining an alternate world.
Harry Gold making
more Fakemon! Cool! (But I don’t think anyone has made fake digimon before, lol.)
Oh, people have made fake Digimon before
Source: Me, a KarnEX enjoyer
I've seen many Fakemon Digimon online, sure alot are recolors but it's something
Karn Ex:
also in a season of the anime a certain digimon who may or may not be my profile picture is literally a made up by the protagonist
@@saphirestorm7952 Cool, I didn’t know that. Thanks
Harry Gold is what AI wishes it could be, Something that can Replace All Artists XD.
He's just sooo Good!
Also the Animation on the sponsors are just so appealing to watch!
Digimon truegreen7 is so cursed i visibly recoiled.
Also, pretty sure that’s cg5 at the end there.
Your videos are always amazing, truly golden content. They are entertaining, funny, with a very original style to it, and not only impressively amazing art pieces who inspire me greatly and always leave me dumb-founded in their quality, due to your expert skill at analysing art styles. I am very admirative!
i am absolutely weeping at the inclusion of yo-kai watch at 1:18!!!!😭 i would absolutely recommend you (or anyone who is interested) look into that franchise because it is so much more than a “pokemon clone”
Several Pokemon are either reskinned Dragon Quest tropes and numerous beta and unused designs were just Ultraman fan characters including the finalized Staryu but you are totally not allowed to question Pokemon's ""originality"" lol.
@@DrCoeloCephalo those said Pokémon are also like. Really really old designs in terms of time. And also said notorious image commenting that, includes a comparison between a dog, and cat on it. So frankly it seems rather unserious.
Honestly just saying this because the “Pokémon ripped off dragon quest designs” type of discourse that started cause of palworld is so tiring and just disappointing to me. It farts like, SO MUCH in the face of the history and clear developmental line in Pokémon’s approach to designing monsters. How Gen 1 just generally pales in the comparison to the amount of thought they actually try with now regarding more recent entry’s. It’d egg me as much if people simplified Yo-Kai watch and Digimon this hard too. It’s ridiculous.
And also it just seems like such a poor way of trying to get people to stop calling Palworld designs just “Pokémon rip-offs”, cause at this point I’d question if it even worked, since people still seem to take that exact potshot. Really all it did is make there be a boon of people with weird amounts of spite or beef towards Pokémon.
I just don’t like it. Seems braindead.
I LOVE YO-KAI WATCH!
7:31 😭
Wow... The Very Old Show...
8:29
Hey, hey, wait a second! That's not the right stage! Gatomon's a champion (for some reason) and typically evolves from Salamon! This is a stage below that
Though I guess it does look better cohesion wise.
13:35
Both were created at around the same time and released months apart, by the way
I know he's just doing funny commentary, but I just wanted to point that out
Looks like you focused mostly on the original 90s Digimon artstyle. It has changed a lot over the years, even more dramatically than Pokemon has changed.
Not me thinking I would hear something new or different about digimon, everyone not normally interested in the franchise says the same stuff 😩
Great art tho, it was fun looking at it anyway!
I'd take a gander and say the celebrity in question at the end of the video is Leonard Neeroy, but I could also be malfeascently misinformed
As someone who's into both of these franchises and loves them equally, I instantly clicked. Can't wait to watch!
Love how much style and effort you put into your videos!!
banger video as always
