THANK YOU ALL FOR THE SUPPORT WE ARE ALMOST AT 50k!!!
Im 36 now and haven't watched pokemon for probably 20 years, but these summaries bring me a lot of joy to watch. Keep the great work!
Bro me too dude me fkn too
exactly why I'm here, 34 and haven't seen an episode since the misty and brock left
I'll watch pokemon when I'm 100 years old
36
34 here. I feel the same. I work with a lot of younger people and they still buy Pokémon cards.
The fact that Ash got a Gengar, Lucario and Dragonite in one series is crazy. Because the fanbase had wanted Ash to have those pokemon for years.
Dbdh5😂tudy😢in front ry😅urjcsgd
I just wish Ash got an Eevee which could have become Espeon. Would have made sense do to red having one. And because evolving through friendship makes sense for a pokemon owned by Ash.
But Goh got Flygon
i mean, it kinda makes sense, gen 8 was the generation where ash left the anime, so maybe game freak gave ash those pokemon as fan service
Ash had a Ghastly that evolved into Haunter in g1. Is this the same Ghastly? I can't really remember what happened to him. This is past my time now but that was one of my top 3 favorite evolution chains. Ghastly, Haunter, and Gengar. They also had some pretty cool bios on the cards. Who wouldn't want a pet ghost that can shadow ball people into oblivion or watch someone get licked into a paralyzed coma? Jokes.
Gangar just sitting on those steps like that. Poor buddy 😭
i am gengars old trainer and i want him back
That abandoned Bulbasaur story got to me so much when I was younger.
No he having the time of his life with may bulbasaur
Aside from Ash and Pikachu themselves, and *maybe* Infernape, Gengar is probably Ash's best example of "started from the bottom now we're here"
what about Charizard? he went from abandoned and almost dying to being a vital team member to being a mentor?
@bostonrailfan2427 Yeah, but Gengar is on Ash's world champion team and Infernape beat Paul in an epic battle. Charizard would be after whoever has the third slot
@@christophermitchell9739 inwas talking about the story not the team: same tragic start, only worse as he would have died if not for Ash
@bostonrailfan2427 Yeah, and I was talking about the lowest start compared to ending point. Charmander had a pretty low starting point, but it wasn't that much worse than Chimchar or Gengar and they reached higher. Pikachu started as a Pichu completely alone in the world and is now the world champion's ace
@@christophermitchell9739nah def Greninja bro gengar and ash don’t have as much bond as any of the Pokemon you said other then gengar
One of my favorite Gengar moments, it's a small one though, was when it helped Ash lift up the trophy he won after defeating Leon.
That Gengar was one of the best characters in the anime. His loyalty was something else
Imagine seeing your "cursed pokemon" winning the World Champion lol
ironically Ash was cursed before if anything. like wtf was that kalos league?
Haha frfr
Paul literally witnessed Infernape managed to get through the finals too, at least that once
Ironic how abandoned pokemon become absolute BEASTS, in Ash's team. They arent just pro trainer level they are literally CHAMPION level.
When I was a kid Gengar is all I wanted and my Haunter stuck at that form while being level 55 (Pokemon Yellow) Wish I could've met someone and traded with them.
what year was this
@@vondeppe9739 Yeah 2000. Pokemon Yellow.
@@Tekillyah That blows, I had the pleasure of basically having my whole classroom.. the boy anyways being into the Pokemon craze, cards and all!!! Teachers would confiscate out skyscraper of a deck of Pkmn cards sometimes. we even had four Japanese students because of their parents doing big stuff for the Toyota plant, and they had the Japanese versions of the games and we all would try to do stuff and trade with them, but we couldn't but we tried. but Tamao I think"Pronounced Tomorrow" and Akira wre successful onget us to celebi for Silver, and Gold, I remember for crystal version too that was cool. We all just had a bunch of Game boy colors and a bunch of Game boy advances with the trading link cable. I feel bad for you. Next the Americans had to declare war on the Japanese boys and we had hornet Wars. Tt lasted till the summer got out. Then 5th grade started 02-03. And awkward questions asking about the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki... derp 😂😂😂😂
There’s a way to get all Pokémon in yellow without trading. I did it before but I did it on emulator so I’m going to do it again on my gameboy when I buy one.
@@jg2722 The year is 2000 and I'm a little snot by then. No emulators yet at that time, just the gameboy, I got the cable but no one to trade to.
Gengar= charizard 2.0
Truest thing I ever heard
Lol
Yep but instead Gengar destroys his old trainer
@@llKarmalIcharizard also destroyed his old trainer as a charmander he use flamethrower
Lol so true
The scene showing Gengar sitting alone on the stairs is really heart touching...
I love how when Ash wason his head Gengar was lookin at him like "Mf,whatd you expect im HIMgar"
Actually, the soup that made gengar gigantamax makes sense.
It's not answered explicitly in the anime, but in Pokemon Sword and Shield: Isle of Armour, we got the answer that the soup is made up of mushrooms filled with dynamax energy.
They should have kept the original forms for gigantimax. These forms remind of of that gen 1 episode where they find "super ancient" pokemon. Huge versions of Gengar and Alakazam
there is still the regular dynamax :D
Reason why I love Gengar so much is because he can be both cool and cute at the same time
Seeing the smile on Gengar while waiting all those years just made it sadder.
I love how Ash got through to Gengar and helped him see that not all people are like his former Trainer. Gengar became a bruiser in his own right and was a phantasmal force to be reckoned with in every battle, even the ones that resulted in him getting knocked out.
2:18 okay gang we satart crying
Ash used to have a haunter. To bad his old haunter didn't come back as a gengar to help ash win the tournament.
He didn’t *have* a hawnter… he befriended one
@@JanamationsOfficial ash befriends all his pokemon, but you are right ash never caught haunter in a pokeball.
@@TheSilvertrigger And it never was really his even I'm spirit unlike Nebby or Larvitar
Yeah but that haunter went on to save them from Sabrina and became her Pokémon.
That haunter was caught by some yellow haired kid and it evolved later into a gengar. But was abandoned by his loser yellow haired trainer since that trainer thought that the Gengar was cursed
It’s so sad when he was waiting for his trainer to come back
6:14 I love how all the fire types welcome Gengar for having such power that they make him feel part of the family aside his differences 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥺
6:15 Litten wasnt abused by a trainer Litten never had a trainer that abused him he just stayed with Stoutland every time if I rememeber correctly. And also heres a theory: Litten's Dad might be Stoutland since they share the same egg group.
True!!! He does have a very tragic backstory though so I’ll sneak him in there
While that's true, ThunderZolt was still right in that every fire type Pokemon Ash had besides Cyndaquil had a sad backstory, including Litten. Litten's was just a bit different from the others'.
What is the tragic backstory??? Gotta pretty dam interesting! I bet mines bette!!! Hahaha! Can you tell Amy and Brian to kiss my ass! Great video by the way!@@ThunderZolt
He did get abuse from people and pokemon
Didn't Stoutland end up dying?
Was that Gengar eating apples? Guess Shinigamis do love apples.
Haha I thought the same thing 😁
Meowth is supposed to be a bad guy, but he’s like that with older brother who teases you a lot but when your having a real hard time he’s there for you and gives good advise to you.
From betrayed and abused into one of the champions team.
Gengar showing parallels to a bunch of Ash's Fire-Types just cemented my unfulfilled wish of seeing N come back to the anime, to pay a visit to Oaken Corral and meet Ash's entire pokemon roster, even the ones he technically released. Just imagine everyone's favorite pokemon whisperer learning about all the adventures Ash had gone through, the friends he made before and after Unova, and all the pokemon, legendary or otherwise, that Ash had befriended and rescued. Out of anyone in Ash's circle of friends, N would be the only one capable of actually learning all of their stories, straight from the 'mons themselves, from Bulbasaur to Dracovish and everyone in between. He'd probably be the first if not the only one to learn just how many times Ash wound up saving the world in some capacity, long before the Team Plasma incident and several times after, so he of all people would know that Ash's dream of being a pokemon master was something he long-since deserved to see realized.
Gotta love that story arc. Everyone loves a good underdog story
Gengars story was really deep and despite being really tricky to not get mad at him its Just like "let him enjoy this one atleast" situation
9:27 ash and gengar getting freaky before gta6
I know brother
"Damn, didnt know you were chill like that"
"Yeah i was killed here, but now with fremd :)"
Me to random ghost
i was expecting this video because of the poll you posted the other day! some how i just KNEW IT!
Hope you enjoyed it haha!
was cravin for another video and bro delivered. Please do infernape next
Thank you a lot! I will do him but I gotta do it right so it’ll take some time got some other people lined up first!
@@ThunderZolt Nice to hear, thanks!
Gengar the GOAT
Slay
I would give Gengar a hug and give him a rare candy. i'm sure he wouldn't mind it anyway.
8:51 “domain expansion “ caught me off guard xd
The most underrated part of this story is that it is now canon in the pokemon world that vacuums can be used to capture ghost.
First season haunter and gengar making the funny faces was awesome.
A great video and breakdown for sure and it's crazy how often Ash comes across abandoned Pokemon even though the first famous one was Charmander, remember that Bulbasaur came from a daycare full of abandoned Pokemon ans Squirtle also ran a group of Pokemon thst were abandoned by trainers. So out of Ash's original team half of them would be cast offs that became such great bn pokemon from Ash's love and care.
i wish all gengar fans a very pleasent day.
💜
That guy is crazy, Gengar is awesome! One of my favorite Pokémon since first gen. Gengar and Eevee are the only Pokémon’s that I always have in my party since first gen.
This showed up on my recommended at exactly 400 views. When I clicked on it, it had exactly 900 views 💀
It had 4K when I clicked and then it jumped to 7k💀💀
8:57 a domain expansion is wild
I love your way of explaining, "it's on sight" 😂😂
Gengar is like a cheshire cat
7:04 “Ay yo, prank’em, Gar.” “😈”
How can you abandon a Gengar. One of the absolute best pokemon ever.
Meta to this day when ev trained
i havent messed with pokemon in so long but this video was amazing
0:19 It was in Kanto not Galar and it was Cerise Lab not a haunted house
Cant wait for infernape story
I SUBBED such good content you make
Ash could have had a Gengar a lot sooner if he didn't give his haunter to Sabrina
Well.. the haunter is needed for Sabrina to happy. 🥹
The Cerise Laboratory is in Vermilion City in Kanto, not in Galar.
Damn, I really felt bad for that Gengar. I mean I cannot see his face while he was sitting on the stairs. Poor buddy.
If people irl abandon pets without remorse I see the same thing here
Better abandoning them instead of just killing them😂
Bro, im playing pocketpixel now.
Your video just make me fell love again to pokemon. Thanks
J's been watching too much Ghostbusters and playing Luigi's mansion in order to pull that move on Ganger. Jokes aside, Ganger has always been my favorite Ghost/Poison type. That fat ghost will always grow on me.
i know im pretty late to the video, but i wanted to explain 7:45 :)
most wild pokemon aren't maxed out on dynamax level, so at first they only dynamax (get big but stay normal). if you feed gigantamax soup to one of those pokemon, their dynamax level increases, eventually maxing out. at that point, when you go to dynamax, they will instead gigantamax, and become their new form. the same goes for all pokemon with a special gigantamax version, ie; snorlax, garbodor, the starters.
i think it's pretty cool that they paid homage to that aspect in the anime, better connecting the two as they don't always follow the same story
Ganga reminds me of Goku off with that once you know, he just teleporting around
Its funny the final character development genger got was beating paul, a trainer who use to abandon weak pokemon.
I’ll be honest gengar become one of my favorites because of this story I made me mad and sad that the previous just left him but thank god that gengar got a happy ending
You should have played that gen 1 outro music with ash laying on Gengar
*Together forever
Torkoal & Talonflame were wild pokemon that didn't have abusive trainers though. It was mainly the fire starters (cyndaquil didn't belong to anyone at the time when it was wild, But it was being harassed & was trying to be caught by an abusive trainer). BUT Overall I Love Ash's Gengar!!!!!!! Honestly I didn't like how the anime portrayed Gengar for half of the series as they kept making him lose, but happy they made him rise again as he was OP in the M8 Battles!!!! I would trade Dragonite, Sirfetch'd, & Dracovish away just to have Gengar be more of a star that I consider him the 2ndary Ace behind Lucario in Ash's Journeys team.
> Heck, Gengar & Lucario were almost practically surrounded by Ash's Regional Aces in the group photo
Gengar is officially the best Pokémon in Journeys because of that GIF of him drinking max soup
Gengar got that charmander treatment
Out of all the Original 150 pokemon as a fan of Ghosts before the whole dark type moves and normal-types being immune to ghost types. I loved Gengar. The only issue being, in the game, players can only have 4 different attacks. A poison/ghost type has an insane number of possible combinations.
2:23 “When i woke up in the middle of the night still thinking abt her”
Also, because of that multiverse, two parter in Journeys were Ash's Pokemon got hit by Palkia's time power, it turned Pikachu into a Pichu, Gengar back into a Haunter & Gastly. Dragonite back into a Dragonair & Dratini. So Ash would have Pichu, Gastly, Haunter, Dratini & Dragonair registered in his Pokedex.
1:41 mf sound like a trainer problem. A Gengar is a blessing to have in battle😂😂😂
Wait fr
Nice use of the Elegant palace theme
Ash has actually got a decently strong team now what have I missed
One of my fav. Pokemon, poor Guy. what a betrayal story line.
Funny gengar can pass through walls and yet he couldnt get out of the vacuum.😂
8:30 gengar learned will-o-wisp from the fire types, and this from gear 5 luffy (but fr gear 5 luffy did literally the exact same thing)
Damn dude just straight forgetting the Haunter he gave Sabrina
Dudeee this is sick, what episodes are these? Thank youuu
W vid
Miss the pokemon game days on Gameboy when ghosts were op when physical attacks didn't affect them
if i would have the chance to get a gengar, id never give it away. by far the best pokemon existing.
It didn't start in the Galar region, this is Kanto
I wish Gengar got acess to the max soup as a prize for winning some small tourney, one where Gengar should face his old trainer and would be at first so enraged it wouldn't fight properly (maybe targeting the huyman?), but Ash convinces Gengar to make it different, make it right, make it better, make an effort and make a change.
6:20 wait talonflame does?
What are you talking about? Ash battled Volkner in Sinnoh, not Galar. So he didn't try to Gigantamax it against Volkner.
The reason why gengar didn’t gigantamax is because the battle spot was too small for gigantamax.
Also the only place that gengar can is the stadium
Plot armor Pikachu on a roll🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
8:57 is sludge wave I think btw. He's poison too :D
He is type ghost/poison
Alright bro, take my sub.
I actually cried when watching Gengar wait for so long.😢
Gangar was my favorite Pokémon
That brakes my heart I love you ganger
How did you made those frame like borders in the clips?????
This video makes me want to use the shiny Gengar I have on Scarlet. It's been sitting in my box of shinies for months now lol
We need a The Complete Story of Ash's Sceptile vs. May's Blaziken
Hmm… Shadow Ball, Ice Punch, and Will-o-wisp. I have to use that next time in Pokémon games
These are so fkn sick
9:30
I had the same question has well
Didnt Ash had a litteral Haunter he could have evolved from gen 1?
He gave it to Sabrina.
Unrelated but the Gigantamax factor isn’t a technique a Pokémon masters. It’s a thing they already have after being caught from a max raid battle, or they get by drinking the special soup
Bro got the spinel treatment
Yeah
why does it seem like half of Ash's pokemon end up with tragic backstories XP it's so silly, but works so well
I bawled at Gengar’s story
Gengar is adorable 💜
