Basically Pokémon Red & Blue

- In this video we take a look at what it felt like playing through Pokemon Red and Blue. Not yellow, that was like COMPLETELY different, totally a whole new beast worth full price. Also can we talk about the dragons again? There really isn't ANY besides Lance and that one dragonair you can get at the casino. No 10 year old playing that game actually won a dragonair and if you said you did I don't respect you

I like to imagine that Red found out about nidoran essentially being really good for brock due to double kick but decided to grind anyway to fuck with Blue
Not for Red and Blue. 🚬
Only in yellow, in Red/Blue it doesn't learn it.
it actually does learn it, but at level 50 smth lmao, and only if you don't evolve it to nidoking iirc @@KaoruMzk
Caterpie..or cater"pee" evolves to learns confusion at lv10 was best way in red. Also fire red gave Charmander metal claw cause of his weakness to rock. Man Pokemon always been broken and glitched and has the dumbest soft lock to ever exists. It still not patched either for the virtual consoles.
@@clarafedde8674CATERPIE LEARNS CONFUSION, AND CHARIZARD CANT FKN FLY?!
This artwork is a phenomenal recreation of the Red & Blue style. And yep, all of this is accurate. Specially the part where Red is totally dumbstruck by Lance’s Dragonite.
I remember being completely stumped how to fight dragon types until after our few tries realized what they’re weak to with my Poliwrath that knew ice beam.
What was Lance's team? A Dragonair, a Gyarados, a Dragonite and I can't remember what else. The reason I bring this up is because when I played RBY when I was a kid I insisted on playing with the same Pokemon Ash used in the cartoon and I remember Lance just demolishing me over and over.
Edit: To be clear that meant my team included the starters, Pikachu, Pidgeot, and Butterfree. I didn't learn until the next gen, that you do not want to face the E4 with bug pokemon.
2nd edit: Scratch that, Heracross was actually really good.
@@lykos2738 A Gyrados, two Dragonairs, an Aerodactyl, and a Dragonite.
_Obviously,_ you have to buy a bottled water from a vending machine, give it to a little girl, and then she will teach you an ice-type attack, because _obviously_ ice beats dragon.
I mean I knew, but then again I used a guide and chose Bulbasaur.
I was a major nerd. Still am.
The art being styled to emulate Sugimori's old art for Pokemon is the cherry on top.
Fr
Beautiful
Oak to Blue: “You didn’t treat your Pokémon with love and care.”
Meanwhile, me as Red: *Forcing my Pokémon through a strict training regimen of defeating every wild Pokémon we see as well as a Rare Candy diet*
If i learned anything from this, it's...
That the Metapod was chill af
*muffled noises of something stuck inside that cocoon*
LEMME OUTTA HERE! I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS KID CAUGHT ME!
I CAN'T BREATH! I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE KID WANTS!
I CAN"T HEAR SHIT! HE KEEPS THROWING ME AT STUFF!
OH GOD WHY DID I EVEN TURN INTO A COCOON!
The metapod looked like it was shrived up rather than chill pff
Metapods are usually pretty chill. Even when Ash and Samurai had no chill with that harden-off, their metapods were incredibly chill about the whole thing.
Kakunas on the other hand, if you mess with one it will get a great urge to evolve and murder you as a beedril. They will remember you and what you did too.
@@m-w-y7325lmao
And picking charmander was the right decision
I like how everyone over the years has collectively decided to portray Blue as a sympathetic character, it really is hard not to feel bad for the guy when you think about what happens to him.
It's because we've all grown up as did he.
Tbf he was never an asshole for no reason, he was a rival not a pushover
Has anyone ever held the title Champion for less time than him?
i miss having rivals that will actually fuck with you. theyve made nothing but cucks and simps the last few generations.
blue like to banter but he's no bad
The fact that he probably still struggled to beat Brock with Charizard is honestly hilarious
Bah, charmeleon as soon as he evolves will absolutely melt brock.
@@chalybee8689 he didn’t use chameleon tho, he used the charizard. With the 4x weakness to rock
@@thedastardlylizard5944 i mean it in the sense that it's unlikely to realy struggle against brock with charizard since just charmeleon makes pretty easy. I get the joke though 🙂
@thedastardlylizard5944 but none of brock's pokemon know rock type moves in gen 1
@@thedastardlylizard5944 With the no rock type moves from Brock.
1:14
i love that you can hear just a bit of spite when he talks about how gary picked squirtle
We've all felt that about Pokémon rivals at one point lol
Yes we watched the video too. Thanks.
The funniest thing is, even when evolved to charizard, it just adds flying, making rock four times as effective
Yeah but Red/Blue Brock doesn't have any Rock-type attacks so it's not really an issue.
@@luissuazo3684 I just assume that it's because Rock types are designed to take hits so they'd survive long enough to make use of Bide. It doesn't really work in practice.
@@ForeverLaxx
No. It's because the original first gym leader was supposed to be a Normal type trainer in Viridian City (basically Youngster Joey with a Raticate) and they just forgot to change the prize TM afterwards and left it as a Normal-type one. Not to mention, the one and only Rock type TM in gen 1 was Rock Slide, which is kind of overpowered at that point in the game.
@@MarvinPowell1 That's nothing but pure fan speculation based on a concept drawing that never made it past the concept sketch stage, which places its existence way *way* before any coding would have been done.
Don't spread speculation as fact.
Also, Surge hands out Thunderbolt and is the gym you're expected to face third, plus Body Slam can be picked up at around this same time in the game. Dig is also 100 power in Gen 1 and gotten very early. There obviously wasn't any consideration given to a move's BP in relation to where it's found by/awarded to the player. Rock Slide is actually at its weakest in Gen 1, for that matter, as it had no secondary effect at that point.
Charmander can take on Brock fine with Ember. Geodude and Onix both have 30 Special in Gen 1 and get chunked by STAB Special attacks. Neither of them have Rock STAB in RBY too, so outside of getting Bide cheesed, Charmander should be able to squeeze out a win if decently leveled.
I like how Lance is portrayed. I know he and his team are kind of a joke today, but back then, playing pokemon for the first time, going up against him without ever seeing a Dragonite or even a Dragonair, not being able to google and having next no no previous knowledge about pokemon... like, what the eff is this thing and how can I hurt it and why does it hit like a truck damn it?!
IIRC, didn’t Lance’s Dragonite also have illegal moves?
But yeah, that was a damn fire lit under us
iirc they were illegally levelled, IE: they were like 2 levels below the level that they should evolve at.@@narutardkyuubi
@@ikunothedestroyer1975 oh yeah, that’s right! I remember being confused when I (finally) got a Dratini and Dragonair and it took a lot to get them to Dragonite.
Made it really amusing when Lance storms the Rocket base near Rage Lake to stop the transmission that’s forcefully evolving Magikarp…hypocrisy much, Lance?
@@narutardkyuubi I apologize if this is a stupid question but how is Lance stopping a magicarp from forcefully evolving hypocrisy?
@@starchild3215 Mostly because Lance himself has Dragonite that are at a lower level than they should be, so it feels like a contradiction if he thinks it’s immoral to evolve pokemon when they’re not ready when he’s done the same to his Dragonite
"Hey look, a defenseless child!" has the same energy as the Ice King going: "An innocent bystander?!" before promptly zapping them
"We'll never bring up war in Pokémon again."
X/Y: Allow us to introduce ourselves.
That was an ancient war from ancient times
Gym leader was in a recent war with guns and shit
Probably with nazis using pokemons but who cares right ?@@spillersoda
Sounds like an excuse for pokemon to compete with Palworld. Who wouldn't want to follow Lt Surge and his Pikachu through the trenches?
@@Vanom. That quote was from a few decades before Palworld. It was mentioned even back in the original games. I do wonder if we'll ever see the war that Lt. Surge was in though.
Even Gen 6, when the ancient war was mentioned, was released a full decade before Palworld ever did.
@@Hijiri_MIRACHION Yeah, it was a joke. I was playing Red and Blue decades ago lol. As interesting as it would be to see a Palworld equivalent in Pokemon, I'd be shocked if they risked it. Even episodes with guns got dropped in the states.
100% accurate.
Died when Oak gave Gary advice. "You just didn't love them."
"should have loved them. why didn't you? It's the winning strat"
And the best part: SAMPLE TEXT
Great advice
to be fair, Gary was 100% a dick. Canonically, he kicked rattacate out of his team because it was so weak and only for that reason. and he didn't just put him somewhere where he could visit them, just straight up released.
@@lupvirgano his raticate died. That is why he was at the lavendar town tower.
Just a bit of head canon.
Considering what Pokémon are capable of, a guy that not only survived a war in a world of Pokémon, but also became a gym leader sounds like the most terrifying person to be on the wrong side of
I also wonder where that war was and who was involved
It's too bad that he's probably the most "free" gym in the game. Almost nothing struggles against Surge.
The speculatin i have herd is the war was with jotho.
Whatever the Pokémon equivalent of the Vietnam war would be. He WAS called the “Electric American” in the games.
The ROM hack, "Fired Red: Team Rocket Edition" actually does an amazing job of fleshing out the lore and making it feel 100% canon to the actual games, as well. In that ROM Hack, they basically said Kanto and Johto were at war 20 years prior to the present in the game (so like, 1976) and that Lance and Johto won the war only because general Oak decided to give up, which is why everyone in the gen 1 Elite Four are said to be Johto natives. They also explain that Red was bred to be able to get revenge on Johto and that Oak wanted him to be a prodigy cause he still harbored revenge. It really does feel like it could actually be canon to Pokemon lore.
Not only was the voice acting amazing as usual, but the art just added another level of hilarity; especially the face the squirtle made, and the one blue made when Oak was telling him he just needed to love his pokemon more. Definitely my favorite video yet.
“You guys couldn’t share a room?”
Took us nine generations, but we finally got an Elite 4 who share the same room.
Gary went from wanting to kill Charmander to feel like a god, to begging like a coward in the face of Charizard
To getting beaten up by three random grunts
That was the other Gary totally different guy
@@emeraldpichu1 Not even his Grandfather remembers his name, why should us?
Different universe
Nah that’s past Gary
What's even more funny about the dragon type is the fact that those who trained Charmander will likely be confused about how Charizard is not a dragon type when it's a literal dragon.
How'd our lives be different if the Charmander, Gyarados, Slowpoke, and Aerodactly lines were part Dragon Types?
@@tlst94slowpoke? You're insane.
Aerodactyl, nah, the fossils all lose their original typing for rock type 🎉
@@salveteinfernum Look at the Slowpoke line closely. They have reptillian features. Especially Slowking. They should've all been Psychic/Dragon. Especially since Gen 1 already had too many Water Types. So they could've just retyped certain existing mons. So how'd the first games be different if some mons were either Ghost or Dragon Types before release?
They could have done it but charizard would have been way too op for a starter.
@@forastero54321 Who cares if it'd be OP? It'd be hilarious to wreck everything. lol
1:22 **You cannot run from a trainer battle.*
1:31
Seeing Dragonite flipping the bird with Lance is amazing. I like to imagine dragonite doesn't even know what it's doing it's just wanted to join in.
The art is such a step up. Sugimori’s art style was captured so perfectly, I imagine this video took a super long time to make.
Seconded. Way to go, Mr. Solid.
Step up from what?
Wow
@@projectmessiah previous videos. What else?
@@shroomfruit345 idk
The art style is FANTASTIC. Props to the artist.
It like the old art style.
It's pretty much the Pokemon Red and Blue art
@@axelcubico4512lol i know thats why i love it
In defense of Charmander, have you ever been hit by a rock someone just threw at you? Now imagine it has arms, is at least as big as your head, and wants to hurt you.
Professor Oak is kinda a terrible human.
He forgets his own grandson’s name, and then sends the two ten year olds on a dangerous unpaid journey to further his own research.
And when his grandson finally achieves his dreams, only to have them immediately crushed, Oak just shit talks him and leaves.
According to let’s go the forgetting his grandson’s name thing is a bit, but yeah fuck him for everything else
2:34 Dragonite joining him giving Red the finger actually made me laugh out loud!
It's like that picture of Moomin holding a knife
The fact that team rocket didn’t just beat the shit out of red always confused me
I know right?
I could see why they wouldn't try to punch him, because red could use his pokemon. I don't think a human would do very well in a fistfight with a charizard. What I don't understand is why team rocket never uses guns though. I mean they're a criminal organization without ethics. I don't think they'd be above sniping a trainer and taking their pokemon.
@@freethinker77 are guns even real in pokemon?
@@freethinker77do they even have guns in their universe, other than that one time in the anime
Because Red has a dragon.
The artist went above and beyond for this. This is incredible.
This was really well written, the art was phenomenal, and the ending was incredible! Thanks for giving me a laugh every time you upload.
3:42 Love how team rocket just kind of slides into frame and clips on the correct layer just to kick his ass.
YOU CAN EVEN SEE WHERE THE CLIP COMES IN, ITS AMAZING.
Fr
That shit was becoming to sad 😭
You described the lore horrifically perfectly. 😅
Hello again
Now do one for each generation
Gen 2 lore be like: a kid climbs a huge mountain only to fight a random dude for 5 mins and see him teleport while the credits roll
@ros9764 A random dude who hasn't visited his mother or any of his friends in... years.
Good thing he came back in Sun and Moon to help rekindle that.
All that's missing is the passing of Gary's Raticate, and the confrontation in front of its grave
Funny story from when I was a kid like 8 or 9. I got charmander as my starter and didn’t know how to leave the starter town (you had to talk to someone) and I just grinder in the level 2-5 grass patch until I had Charizard. I eventually asked my older sister and she read the npc dialog and talked to the right guy, but by that point I had about a level 35 Charizard and the rest was history.
Seeing that encounter on the bridge was actually a throwback for me.
Wait as far as i know evolving your pokemon before getting the pokedex softlocks the game
@@user-po8kd5cb8e Only in the Japanese versions.
Gentle reminder that Gary canonically has 10 gym badges
Yet is only a gym leader while Red is beyond champion
Thats the anime.
@@hiddenflare6169The anime is also the only place he's called "Gary"
@@Snowstorm...and ethan has two names, does it really matter if people call Gary as Gary
Gary? I only know a jerk named ASSFART.
Being tired from the extra long walk to Lance's room is just a perfect simple joke
"If you loved them more." Knowing what I do about the comics? Ouch. Ouch, Professor.
Absolutely what my childhood was like playing the game when I think about it. I had these thoughts constantly. WHAT WAR? TELL ME. Why are the Lapras dying out? TELL ME. I'm a sucker for a good story, even if it's served in bite sized chunks. Recent games have given me more storyline, which satisfies me. Older games gave me a sandbox of ideas to play with.
Can't wait to see what happens next with hopefully less glitching through the earth :)
You managed to make Gary Blue sympathetic without even mentioning Red murdered his Raticate.
The art for Blue kneeling at the end captured the Sugimori style perfectly. Gen 1 really was wild, half the trainer classes were running around with whips. Damn.
Okay you’ve gotta do one of these for every generation. It’s stunning
To do that many, you would have to end up paying him off. That's multiple gens
I imagine the one for gen 9 having many animation and audio errors in purpose
Agreed
Just like pokémon games, the series will lose its charm with every passing Gen.
@@D3_XT3Ronly to whiny babies like you try to grow up
Professor Oak: You should have loved your pokemon more Blue.
Me who made my charizard kill every living thing on the victory road : Yeah, exactly
I like how Red is basically just how everyone sees Blue/Gary and Blue did nothing wrong aside from a few insults in the very beginning.
Nothing like playing through some old school Pokemon while watching the sun set and eating a _JELLY DONUT_
drying pan
Nothing beats a jelly donut!
THATS NOT A DONUT?!!😵😵😱😱😭😭🤬💯🔰❓️
Yep I sure do love those Jelly Doughnuts!
Silly SilverHawk! PB&Js are only for people who aren't CRAAAAZZZYYYYYY
Gary having a breakdown seeing Charizard just got me
I love that you recreated the watercolor look of the original art. That's a deep cut and it's really appreciated.
I dunno Oak, I'm not sure I'd say Blue's problem was not loving his Pokémon enough when one of his signature team members across almost every single game he's in is the very first Pidgey that he caught.
Until he replaced it with an Aerodactyl in gen 4/5, that is.
@@MarvinPowell1 I did say "almost". He still uses it when you partner with him during the Battle Tree in Gen VII, though.
Yeah that was basically Silver's problem not Blue's.
Hey, Pidgeot is not that bad. Sure, there are better flying pokemons like... Charizard and Aerodactyl with Rock Slide. But its moveset in Gen 1 it's fairly ok.
He literally visits his dead Rattata in the Pokemon Tower too
Blue: You know, i think grandpa might be right. I do need to love my Pokemon more!
*marries a Gardevoir*
Oak: That's not what i meant!
Blue: *Brings out a Ditto with a ribbon on it's head*
Oak: *Smack his forehead in dissappointment*
That was unexpected wtf
I sincerely hope Dragonite giving the double bird becomes a meme because that was unexpectedly hilarious.
"My electric pals save me in the great Palworld war!"
Fun fact: Not only was Lt. Surge canonically in a war, he’s also canonically from America.
Also in Gen 2 Lance makes one of his Dragonite use hyperbeam on a human.
The NPC he used Hyper Beam on shows up in Masters EX and is still traumatized about it.
@@TheAzulmagia HE SURVIVED IT?!
@@MyVanir I was shocked too when I played Gen 2 as a kid. Obviously they can't have someone die in a Pokemon game, but how the fuck.
@@MyVanir There's a conversation elsewhere about why Team Rocket doesn't just use guns. One of the reasons given is that "there's pokemon with stuff like Hyper Beam". Apparently Hyper Beam isn't powerful enough to kill a person automatically. So suck on that "guns wouldn't be useful" morons.
America must be a tiny region considering New York is Unova.
Squirrtles face 1:16💀
Very funny to keep the impact font text over still image style even after actually getting an artist to make unique art for this video
The irony in Oak telling Blue that his Pokémon lost because they weren’t loved enough, when Oak doesn’t love Blue enough, which is why Blue lost too lol.
@3:25 bro this is the hardest I've laughed all year, maybe
Squirtle's face was priceless.
Same with Gary when he was having that pep talk with Oak about loving and caring his own Pokemon lol
"If you loved your pokemon more you would've lasted more than 5 minutes."
Bro literally grieved for his Raticate.
This was amazing. More like this peace. The old stylish comic look adds SO much to the feel. +1. 10/10
"If you loved your pokemon more, sample text". Great words to live by.
The hyper detailed faces of pure agony are the most real thing I've seen all day
Insert amazing world of gumball meme here
I theorize that the "war" Lt. Surge mentioned isn't a made-up war, but rather a recent war IRL, like the Vietnam or Gulf War. You've gotta keep in mind that in Gen 1, the Pokémon world wasn't a fictional one. Kanto is straight up named after the real Kanto region in Japan. And given that Surge is "The Lightning American", the war he mentioned had to be one America was involved in.
No wonder uses traps in his gym and uses rat pokemon for the tunnels...
Holy shit how is this so good???? The art style is perfectly authentic to the original game artwork, the jokes are fucking perfectly done, red leveling up charizard while there’s a also starved metapod doing literally nothing is something anyone could relate to that’s played these games. Holy shit best video on the channel contender right here.
How did he do it? Pen and watercolor? It's perfect.
@@joemerino3243 dunno, I think it’s a different artist?
Why was Brock shirtless in Red & Blue? Why'd it seem so weird seeing him like that after watching the anime first as a toddler in 1999?
This art style is phenomenal! I love how great it looks.
You definitely described the lore of Pokémon Red and Blue perfectly.
0:06 The Pokémon war would be interesting and sad at the same time. Wish that was brought up more in the game.
Pokemon Conquest is the closest we'll ever get to that concept.
@@daevious_I think there was a movie where they referenced pokemon in a war but I forgot which
@@IdontIanKnow I just prefer Pokemon Conquest for depicting Nobunaga as a Poke-Aethiest whose first reaction to Arceus is to immediately try and kill it.
Pokemon xy told a bit about it.
But nothing more that there was an war and a big laser cannon
Look at the Pokémon manga Pokémon adventures. I think it does a lot better job explaining it.
2:12 not until gen 9 my dude
This was just supposed to be a comfort series. The kind of saturday morning cartoon sort of shenanigans where you see it on your TH-cam timeline, and you think "oh, this is nice, surely this will make me happy for a short period and I won't think much else of it"
But no.
Ever since, like, the Deadpool bit, the quality has improved tremendously on these skits, and they're not only a great source of comfort material, but they're actually surprisingly hilarious and cathartic, to the point that I gladly go back and rewatch certain episodes like "This is one of my favorite internet videos"
And I have been on TH-cam for over a decade. I have a lot of favorite shows, but SolidJJ dubs are some quality stuff man. Makes me happy. Inspires me even.
Great job man.
1:44 bro on the right's head built like waluigi
Having this whole thing in the old watercolor style was a brilliant idea. I miss that art style...
Your jokes are low hanging fruits. Not complaining though, keep doing that in fact. I think most people are too scare to point out the easiest jokes and try to overcomplicate things, if something is funny then it is funny. Plus the art is spot on to the early stuff.
0:56 yo I did the exact same thing when I was a kid 😂. Couldn’t beat misty so I grinded to lvl 40.
0:55 I can relate to this Red right here. After getting my ass kicked by Misty enough times, I actually got myself a Charizard before I beat her. Then I got to the Nugget Bridge and laid waste to everything! Unfortunately, I was too overpowered to even catch another Pokémon, so I had to reset my file and start over.
Misty was a huge pain in the ass when you start with Charmander.... The memories....
@@akshayoj17 Just catch a grass pokemon or something, or a Pikachu, it wasn't that hard. Well, I did fail at her multiple times in my playthroughs of Firered...so...
You WHAT?! WHY WOULD YOU RESTART?! I just had my charizard rampage the remaining gyms and league. I never had need to use any others as a kid. Then when I beat league only then did I catch and grind other pokemon. My very first lvl 100 on og red was flareon.
Why does he have the scrapped female design of Charizard, though? It looks so uncanny with only one horn thing.
I remember burning up all my money from blacking out from her
This makes me wanna see the reactions of every kid back in 1996 and 1998 who thought they had each Pokemon weakness chain figured out only to get slapped in the face with the Ghost type Gengar and the Dragon type Dragonite! 🤣
Saw the anime first.
Played stadium before RBY.
Looked up weaknesses in a guidebook.
All things considered, Pokemon ain't anywhere near the most traumatically difficult RPG I played by then.
I would love to see reactions of old fans to the third generation for first time.
Gengar has all the weaknesses of poison type and Dragonite has all the weaknesses of flying type. What does it matter that they are also ghost and dragon type?
The only Ghost type line was just a Poison type that happened to be immune to Normal. Dragon was supposed to be a wall resistant to all the Starter STAB moves, but had no STAB moves itself compensated with high stats and would fall to Blizzard which can be learned by anyone.
They gave a booklet with the game (game manual) that had a pretty understandable diagram of type vs type.
its ironic how gary is always the one winning in the anime but gets wiped in the game
"This will never be brought up again" 😂
Not gonna lie this scene is dope as hell 1:02
that scream gary makes is so fucking guttural
2:28 “ there are dragon Pokémon?”
Charizard: am I a joke to you?
Yes he is
He’s fire/flying
Yes he is not dragon type
Mega Charizard X: Allow me to introduce myself
Where's the Dead ratacaite joke?
0:34 should have picked bulbasaur 🥱 🥱
Bulbasaur is awesome
I perfer squirtle but I do love bulbasaur as well
@@Stocksleet real
1:28 Y'know, i'm start ot feel this moment was more-or-less connected with that one video about how a simple squirtle can end the life of a charmander by turning off his fire tail, it's something like... karma for his past action (even considering the event on the pokemon videogames are canon in the pokemon anime)
This captures that old Pokemon style so perfectly. Love how smug Red looks with Charizard.
🔥
Should’ve love your Pokemon more Blue.
More like he should have taken his own advice and ground too to Blastiose. XD
There is an amazing comic series basically with this exact premise. It is a realistic look on nuzlocke challenge in FRLG. It is called "It's a hard life". Highly recommend
I always felt bad for Blue. The guy became the best of the best at a prodigious age, but just gets ragged on by his Grandpa because someone else beat him afterwards. I suppose it makes sense, seeing as Oak did forget his name at the start of the game. Maybe the old fogey always had it out for him.
The Pokewar will mever be resolved, it never ended, it's why we send our 10 year olds, they've been drafted
Of course there was a war, they dropped *Voltorb* from planes while they used *self-destruct.*
Having bulbasaur in red and blue makes the game the most easiest shit in the world
On God man. I love my Bulby (my nickname for Bulbasaur)
10 PP vinewhip Bulbasaur? Yeah, I actually tried him and now he's my least favourite starter of them all. Had more fun using friggin Pikachu unevolved to endgame.
Eh, grass types are easy enough to come by in early Red/Blue.
Charizard all the way.
Bulbasaur is so good for so many reasons. My favorite tool he has is Razor Leaf, it’s godly with that near guaranteed crit rate and how much earlier he gets it. Leech Seed is high on that list too with how it and Growl let you solo Brock.
@@TheACcamFire types are rare, but there’s also no reason to have one because Flying does everything you want Fire to do (since there were no Steel Types, and almost every Ice Type was a water type too). And you kind of need a flier for Fly, which Charizard couldn’t be since he couldn’t learn Fly. I appreciate Charmander as a “high difficulty” run though.
i love that humanity as a whole is finally realizing that blue is a pretty sympathetic character.... we're progressing as a society
(DO NOT READ MY USERNAME. I AM NOT BIASED.)
3:42 Suddenly, Team Rocket somehow comes to beat up Blue.
Lance and Dragonite with the middle finger was genuinely hilarious
I actually got Pokémon FireRed for Christmas in 2005! Thanks, Solid JJ for helping me relive childhood memories (and frustrations)! Happy Holidays Solid JJ!
1:20 the way on how Gary goes down on his mental breakdown always gets me. 😂👌
i like the commitment to the old school, gen 1 art style
This has gotta be 2nd time Gary's put through a mentral crisis of sorts lmao. Nice to see even more art and collabs though and seeing Doobus in a video once again!
*Merry Christmas All!*
1:52 A "defenceless" child??? Mf's got a god damn dragon!
Yeah but he is defenseless to being kicked in the back
@@BeyondDaX Sure, just try to touch him and his GOD DAMN DRAGON will burn your ass to crisp. He won't even go to court for murder because it was in self defense.
It still in the pokeball, get him
@@Drew3966 He can get it out in one quick simple motion, it's really a non-factor. And even if you say they jumped him and knocked the pokeball out before he can throw it or some other bs, pokemon literally can go out of the pokeball by themselves, the show reiterated that many times. And on top of all that, in this particular situation he sees the enemies right in front of him and he's already holding the pokeball in his hand, like what do you even mean??
Not a dragon, just a fire breathing lizard with wings
The growth and competence in these projects is astounding. Im glad i subbed.
I'm loving the production value! It looks great
Graphics are getting hardcore man!
Damn Gary can’t get a break from both Ash and Red
It’s crazy that video games have more development in lore and characters than animated series
Well if the production studio wasn’t so busy animating 1000+ episodes with basically the same formula..
This is hands down INCREDIBLE both humor wise and artistically! Mixing the original Sugi art style with the comedy is so amazing. Props to the artist!!
Red took it way personal when blue said ''Have fun grinding''
Palwar in palworld was the war he was talking about. Nintendo, gamefreak and creatures has been ashamed of losing the war for so long
0:19 "I'D LOVE TO KID, BUT THEN NINTENDO MIGHT NOT LIKE THAT, AND PARENT'S MIGHT DISAGREE WITH WAR BEING BROUGHT UP"
This whole video is perfect. And the graphic at 3:19 made me 😵.
Lmao I love when red just shows up with charzarid in cerulean city blue just looses his shit
The team rocket grunts coming out of now where scared me
Seeing Red crush Blue's dreams in real time will never not be entertaining.
How'd Blue react to seeing Red becoming Champion first? Had GameFreak wrote the game that way. And what'll Blue do about it?
He just wasn't the main character
Blue literally was ignorant enough to be sprinting through his journey just to left rocket be taking over
Anime depiction did better but still he wasn't being very responsible
These videos keep getting better and better
