      @matthewkuscienko4616 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's very true that Ash's Journeys team didn't necessarily have the most fleshed out personalities, but besides being focused on his battles primarily, I think the main reason why they got less personality is because they had Goh as a secondary protagonist. It's for this reason that they didn't get as much development, in my opinion, because with them splitting the story between having 2 main characters they couldn't afford to devote as much time to the personalities of Ash's Pokemon in a series were he was aiming to reach the title of strongest trainer.

    • @ashelygordon669

      I personally loved Ash’s Journeys Team but I definitely had the same gripe like you mentioned in the comment.
      It is self-explanatory and I wholeheartedly agree they were more battle-oriented in comparison to Ash’s other teams alongside the lack of personalities they had.
      I don’t hate Galar at all or dislike it at all but I wished they showed more Galar representation in terms of the Pokémon and the characters because I entirely think that everyone can unanimously agree that they got shafted hard. 😬😰

    I so badly wanted to love Ash's Lucario... but... I just hoped for so much more from his storyline, you know? I thought he was great as a Riolu, even if he wasn't given the best storyline ever. But then I just didn't care for him after he evolved. Honestly my favourite part of his character was that he showed us that Greninja's Bond Phenomenon was somewhat linked to Aura, which was awesome to me. And Lucario did a great job VS Cynthia. But yeah... I still hoped for more haha, after being so hyped about the concept of Ash catching a Lucario for over a decade!

    Lucario was indeed one of the best and strongest Pokemon Ash had. And his Performance in the Masters 8 against Cynthia and Leon were Amazing. Only thing i found a bummer was that Cynthia didnt used her Lucario (which i 100% certain she had against Ash). At that point She was the best ranked Lucario trainer in the Pokemon world. Could had been interesting for Lucario to test his Power to the Fullest against the best ranked Lucario in the Tournament and in the World

  • @CoolNala
    @CoolNala ปีที่แล้ว +24

    The most anticipated capture in history and well worth the wait. I will admit... While his battles against Volkner and Cynthia were epic (I especially loved it when a Lucario and Luxray finally met in combat)... I just found Lucario's story, especially after he evolved a little too predictable. Meeting Greninja... Saw it coming, along with the Giant Aura Sphere... His key wins in major battles and becoming the Ace... He was Greninja 2.0 in a sense. While there were some unpredictable moments, I wish there were more... I did find his friendship/"Bro-Mance" with Cinderace both cute and hilarious.
    Overall, Lucario's character was great, but his story arc upon evolving could have been a little better... However, that can't take away from how awesome he was.

  • @castform7
    @castform7 ปีที่แล้ว +37

    I actually really liked the idea of Aura having similar properties to the Bond Phenomenon. Not only because we got to see Greninja again but also because it just makes sense with how both have the ability to connect to their trainer and augment their power.

    • @ashelygordon669
      @ashelygordon669 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      While I wholeheartedly agree the story arc and some of the battles Ash’s Lucario were too predictable like many have mentioned in the comments, I loved Ash’s Lucario and the remaining members of the Journeys team despite the flaws that the series had.
      Not to mention that I also loved the idea of Aura having properties that are identical to Bond Phenomenon considering the Bond Phenomenon was one of the aspects that I liked a lot during the XY era.
      Makes sense considering how both Greninja and Lucario had similar abilities connecting with their respective trainers and augmenting their own power.
      I would love for that idea to be more experimental with characters aside from the protagonists such as rivals/champions in order to stand out as characters in their own respective ways please. 😁🥹

    There’s your buddy pokemon and your ace pokemon!
    Your buddy pokemon is the pokemon that’s like super cute friendly or is just your emotional support animal in a way. Your ace pokemon is your pokemon you constantly use in Battle.
    Pikachu is definitely ash’s main buddy pokemon but still an ace in its own right!
    Ash’s ace’s are definitely Charizard, Sceptile, Greninja, Gengar, Dragonite, and Lucario.

    Lucario was certainly a top tier battler for Ash and held the honor of becoming his first mega evolved Pokémon.

    I was already super hyped about journeys after Ash got, Dragonite, and Gengar. But I know I speak for the whole Pokémon Community when I say that the day, his Riolu evolveing into Lucario answered the prayers of many Pokémon fans ever since we saw a Lucario and the mystery of mew and I was totally ecstatic. I also find it fitting that it became one of the strongest Pokémon he ever had. My heart felt like it was using bullet punch against my chest when Lucario lost to dragapult against Leon. I have to admit it made for some excellent writing for the Pokémon that served as his ace that we believed to give Ash some winning momentum being his second Pokémon to go down. It really got me on the edge of my seat to the battle, and made his victory in the end all the more meaningful. Because let’s be real, no, Pokemon can take away Pikachu spotlight. 😂 Ash getting Lucario was an awesome experience!

      @@WhatDoesntkillYa time is not the main factor that determines how strong a pokemon is. Between their bond, which gave little Riolu the strength to take on Onix, how often they trained together, and how they kept battling progressively stronger opponents by climbing through the ranks of the world championship, I can see how Lucario was able to become as beastly as it did

  • @Cheichei11
    @Cheichei11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Fun fact: After evolving, Lucario never lost an official trainer battle (so Mewtwo and Articuno don't count) without first getting a win.
    I would like to see Sirfetch'd next, he's my favorite Journeys Pokemon. In my opinion, Sirfetch'd is Ash's strongest non-ace pokemon.

    13:33 My personal headcanon is that Ash's Lucario is the reincarnation of the one from the movie, and that being the reason it didn't hatch until it sensed Ash, who is stated to have identical aura to Sir Aaron.

    Man, I really like how Ash got Lucario to Mega Evolve.
    But they still gave it a big fail against Cynthia against Mega Garchomp. To be honest, I wanted to actually see another Ash vs Korrina rematch but Mega Lucario vs Mega Lucario.
    Okay so you came down here, congrats. I wish journeys gave us more backstory episodes like Cynthia for example. We see she got Garchomp as an egg but a big mystery is where did she get the Key Stone and Mega Stone? From Sycamore as an adult? Kalos Adventure with Diantha to get one? Journeys missed SO many opportunites.

    While I may slightly disagree with your third complaint, still... pre the classic saying: Better late than never. :)

    Oh Ash’s Lucario, I’ve been waiting for the video of its whole history for a very long. Riolu was just an egg when they first met and Ash even felt it’s aura. When it hatched, the moves it used was vacuum wave, force palm and double team. After it evolved it beat Chairman Rose’s Copperjah and Ferrohorn, defeated Volkner’s Rotom with Reversal, lost to Mewtwo(which was expected cause Mewtwo was OP), defeated Bea’s Machamp and Grapploc, Raihan’s steel type dragon Pokémon Duraludon. It did that big aura sphere and took it out in one blow. That battle with Cythina, it took out her Togekiss and Garchomp. That Garchomp battle was insane, it was still able to get up even after taking all those blows. Moveset: bullet punch, reversal, aura sphere, double team and steel beam.

    Lucario the Goat. Hope to see Ash return sometime in Pokemon Horizons as a mentor for Liko and Roy.

He's worthy as Greninja's spiritual successor but Greninja is still on top behind Pikachu of course

    Unrelated but I think it’s a bit sad Ash finally won the World Tournament with only new Pokemons. I would have loved to see his old pokemons make a return, and finally get the victory they deserved. It could be like a “best of all” team with Charizard, Snorlax and Sceptile for example. It’s fair to have new Pokemons of course, but I would have preferred a nice mix of old and new. I didn’t see all the tournament though so I may be wrong

    I was glad that Ash got a Lucario. Ash was destined to have one. It's battled against 4 legendaries. I wish it could've batttled & beaten a legendary pokemon. I'd have love to have seen Mega Lucario vs Urshifu & also Mega Lucario vs Zeraora. those would've been great. I wish we could've seen a battle between Mega Garchomp & Mega Lucario. I wish Lucario could've battled & beaten Leon's G-MAX Cinderace instead of pikachu. A G-MAX Aura Sphere vs a G-MAX Fireball would've been so good!! I wish it could've also learned Counter & Bone Rush to replace Double Team. Bone Rush could've helped protect itself from fire type attacks. Like Greninja, it fell to a Fire type attack from Leon's Dragapult. I think Sirfetch'd should've been the one to take down Mr. Rime. that's how I felt when I watched the battle. And I agree with you on Ash should've gotten one in Sinnoh, but he's got Lucario now, & that's all that matters.
