I scrolled too fast during the Green segment and went past Whimsicott without realizing. Whimsicott IS BARELY GREEN IT IS PRIMARILY TAN AND BROWN WTF COLOR CLASSIFIERS
I’d watch a Let’s Play of Shield. Maybe you can do a “Colorlocke” where you can only catch Pokémon of specific Dex colors (no matter how wrong they might be).
The biggest problem here is the inconsistencies. Sometimes clothes/shells are included, sometimes they're ignored. Some pokemon stick with their evolutions, others are separated to the correct colours. Sometimes the face is the main factor, sometimes it isn't
Also how some of these sprites in Home are way more saturated or different colors from the regular in-game sprites or official art. Like the Abra line. They're a much lighter yellow in the games.
@@liviquail Yeah, same with the solosis line, for some reason it's body is green in home, while it's white on every other sprite art I've seen. Kinda odd that no one has pointed that out so far tbh.
Actually, Applin being green is correct. It’s actual form is all green. The apple is actually not part of it’s biology until it evolves so yes it does make sense as to why it’s categorized as green.
@@dwinters6291kangaskan is born with a child and cubone is born with the skull it apparently got from its dead mother whom you know both are alive since you can pick them up from the daycare so breeding doesn’t always have the best logic
Fun fact: many parts of the world don’t have a word for the colour orange. Even English only gained the term “orange” and started applying it to the colour when the orange fruit arrived from the Mediterranean; things that were orange were called red. I’m not going to claim to be an expert in Japanese, but as someone learning the language I did find it interesting that despite “mikan” being the term they use for the mandarin orange fruit, their term for the colour orange is “orenji” - it is highly likely that the concept of the colour orange is a western thing; thus, like old Englishmen before they saw the orange fruit, orange colours are designated as red. And the word orange has now lost all meaning to me 😝
It was a Naranja, originally an Arabic word. Over time it became a Noranj then finally an orange. It paralleled another quirk in the development of English. At one time you'd try not to get bitten by a nadder. Now you try to avoid the bite of an adder. Yep, an is a newish word hence its bizarre use prior to words beginning with a vowel. English is one of a tiny number of languages with such a quirk.
I'm from England and I still don't consider orange to be a real colour. I've argued with my friends on multiple occasions, but so many board game pieces or video game team colours have a "red" piece that is very much orange, because a fully saturated red would look too harsh (or possibly be too expensive to dye idk), but nobody ever questions it because our perception of colour is all relative anyway. If you have Orange, Blue, Green, and Yellow pieces/teams, people will automatically refer to the Orange colour as "Red" without realizing it. Don't even get me started on Brown, which is literally just Dark Orange.
Idea for Shield Do a playthrough using only one type Example: Choosing Grookie then only having grass types (Duel types are allowed, as well as trading if you want or if the pokemon can only be traded) and then beating the story (Not the pokedex)
Love me a good Monotype. Between the Wild area and Isle of Armor, you can realistically choose any type and have it work, since literally every type is available before even registering for the gym challenge.
Another interesting fact: In linguistics class we learned that different cultures categorize colors differently. So something we in countries with languages of Latin origin define colors differently than maybe other cultures around the world.
For the sake of argument; in Japan, blue and green were considered one colour, "ao", for a very, *very* long time. Even after the word for green, "midori," was introduced, plenty of things that are green are still referred to with the word "ao." This more flexible outlook on the two colours can be used to explain bronzor and bronzong: bronze, having high copper content, oxidizes green. Bronzor and bronzong, being an ancient bronze mirror and bell respectively, are obviously oxidized. Thus, the pokemon must be green, despite the colour of the design being what we would call blue. Copperajah vs. vikavolt is the same thing: oxidized copper is green, so the copperajah is green. Vikavolt is *not* oxidized copper, so it's blue. \o/
The Bronzor/Bronzong thing is ridiculous, but there is actually a fun explanation for it: Those two are designed after rusty bronze things (obviously) Bronzor is based on a rusty bronze mirror yo-kai, and Bronzong is based on an ancient bronze bell who's name I can't remember. Being an alloy of copper and tin, bronze "rust" is green, much like the copper used to make it.
Yeah it does lighten mainly blue by a bit so that might've been a mistake, like loudred specifically, exploud has switched between blue and purple alot but the one in the game is blue
29:00 Is it just me who thinks the shades of hot pink on milotic are EXACTLY the same as Porygon 2 and Z? Comparing them side to side, there's very little to no difference in shade yet he's acting like Milotic is dark hot pink and Porygon 2 and Z are lighter hot pinks.
He probably perceiving the colour as darker because of the surrounding colours. The pink on milotic looks darker because of the lighter tan and the pink on porygon 2/Z looks lighter because of the darker blue.
@@JosephRobinsonSMBX Valid statement, horrible point. That reason is certainly a stretch. Although, in my opinion, Elgyem is light blue, I can see why people think it's green or gray, I guess.
Ha I remember this quiz... Here the quiz winner was given a direct entry to the indigo league without any badges... Funny stuff -- ash, Jessie and James scored less than 10%
im realizing during the blue segment that maybe your tinted glasses are not the best option to wear when judging pokemon based on color. chimeco is like 75% of its body is blue and its clearly just a pale blue. especially if those are the glasses tat help mitigate blue light (theyre the same thing and different its all about frequencies)
Purple and Blue both he was saying a *lot* of things weren't accurate in those categories when they 100% were either the glasses screwed him over or my boy is blue colorblind
The heck? Chimecho's white with pink spots! how are you getting blue? How is anyone getting blue? In pretty much every official image i've seen of Chimecho, it's white!
@@Shrina_Dracis the only white Chimecho I can find online is fan-art. Every official piece of media (official art, the actual anime, etc), it's a very light shade of blue. Do you have a blue-light filter on your device that might make you see the incorrect color?
@Evy Görtzen good to hear I am not the only one. As I continued to watch I got more and more frustrated at how much I disagree with Michael and the Pokédex. Colours are stupid.
@@HANSIMUSMAXIMUS I'm starting to think Michael is somewhat colorblind and doesn't actually realize it. That Haxorus classification for one thing. It was very yellow in both pictures.
"Bayleef is yellow I will die on this hill" *goes through Pokemon the same yellow tinted lime green tanish hue that you could still consider green, same color as Bayleef* "Yeah that's green"
It’s to prevent him from seeing the studio lights shining in his face Everyone has said this same comment Everyone has been proven wrong It is very surprising
27:33 The Haxorus there, from what I can tell, is inside of a darker place. It looks muddier because it’s in a very dark building which might be why you see green. I’ve always seen Haxorus as gold- which even if the yelloe is brighter, I would’ve still put in yellow.
DEFINITELY. Several times I would have debated with him on the colours. Especially when he ran into the same or similar colouring but said it was a different colour, *sigh* Whatever. A lot of these are overcontroversial anyways.
@@xBloodxFangx sunglasses are black, absorbing all coulours equally, but his glasses are orange-ish, mainly absorbing blue, which makes everything an orange-ish tint
@@xBloodxFangx no, the whole point is that it blocks out blue colour, because that hurts your eyes the most. That's why most android phones have the option to apply an orange colour filter in the drop down menu.
Mike: Elgyem is blue?? Me: Huh, weird, I always thought of it as green. I mean it’s based off the saying “Little Green Men (LGM)” though i guess it has kinda a blue tint- Mike: It’s grey. Me: What?
He is waring glasses that filter blue light to lessen eye strain. He is staring through a yellow/orange lens this strips out some of the blue shades on the other side of the color wheel. If you rob Elgyem of the mint color it is you end up with something akin to grey. Does not explain the Sandaconda take though.... Its based off of a anaconda... there are MASSIVE green patches.
Wow, I forgot elgyem was categorized as blue until just now. I actually thought it was categorized as grey until now. I only just realized cranidos and rampardos were categorized as blue, not grey very recently, really they have less blue than druddigon has red, it doesn't even cover their whole face. Also, I'm pretty sure I was today years old when I learned that Alolan marowak is categorized as purple, not black. Same with zygarde's 50% form being the only green one.
Elgyem being in blue is kinda baffling to me personally because it kinda looks like a pastel mint kinda color in my eyes, and also it'd just be more fitting to be in green given its namesake is based off the term "LGM", Little *Green* Man And even if y'wanna brush that off as being a purely localization deal, in a similar vein to Mr. Mime having the masculine honorific despite being able to be female [even if the name was before genders were properly added in the following Generation], Elgyem's original Japanese name is Ligray, so going off of that, it should be grey like you originally assumed
@@BlazingJ972 I mean there are pokémon categorized as grey that look blue, like the machop line. I didn't necessarily say it looked blue to me, I just misremembered what colour the pokédex said it was.
go through shield as a “gym leader” and pick a type and you can only use pokémon of that type and of course you could use duel types not just strictly your one type
The first Taillow I got in Pokémon emerald was shiny so I always thought Taillow and Swellow were green....and I thought Winona’s was shiny XD. I thought the sparkles meant it was super strong.
Me with color blindness: "Yes that's red, no problem here" Michael: "That's not red, that's orange/pink" Maybe the one to sort the Pokemon by colors was color blind too
His is navy blue but like dark. His is the swellow honchkrow and murkrow colored navy blueish black. I will die on the hill that those birds blue tint aside should have all been in black cause it was that thing where it's supposed to be black but they gave it a bit of color to make it have that kinda feather glow birds have in the sun. And the one who asked the colors yours is between like a green apple green a true green and a lime green and has that like neon highlighter color brightness to it. So for me it's hard to tell the difference but I am not colorblind so that doesn't answer your question properly XD
I think you should do a different kind of “Locke” than a nuzlocke in sword Like another wonderlocke, egglocke, etc. I think it would be fun if you collaborated with someone and did a cagelocke or something like that
11:02 I think this might be judging not so much as the amount of a particular color, but by which color is the most eye catching in the overall design. So this one right here gets listed as blue because it's the color that stands out.
On your pokemon shield you could do an eeveelution challenge: every time you beat a gym you need to add an eevee to your team, which will be evolved later. By the end of the playthrough, your whole team will be eeveelutions. Every pokemon on your team must be a different eeveelution.
"In what universe is Bronzong GREEN?" Actually the recently released Diamond and Pearl Beta sprites show that Bronzong was originally meant to be a teal. It was probably classified as green then and they forgot to fix it before the release... then never fixed it afterwards...? Ok either my logic is skewed or Game Freak is as lazy as we think they are. -_-
It’s probably just wrong colour classification because I doubt that they gave classifications before the Pokemon’s final design was released but very interesting theory
I mean its colour is inbetween Blue and Green so it can be put in both groups. It looks like teal which is a shade of Cyan and can fit into both Green and Blue
I personally already did it with sword instead of shield. I included flapple in it (at least once it evolved) because flapple really can only be gotten in Sword without trading.
i had a teacher (when i was a kid) she told us, that her husband was wearing sunglasses so, the hamburgers looked pink even when were clearly about to be done a salmon tint or so

@@xBloodxFangx sunglasses are black, absorbing all coulours equally, but his glasses are orange-ish, mainly absorbing blue, which makes everything an orange-ish tint
@@Leo-ws3bp and you can have that tinted orange color AND see through them with normal color. They do make them like that.
@@xBloodxFangx no, the whole point is that it blocks out blue colour, because that hurts your eyes the most. That's why most android phones have the option to apply an orange colour filter in the drop down menu.
@@Leo-ws3bp believe what you want then I guess. I know what Ive seen and bought before
I love how he just messed around for a bit 14:55
Mike: Elgyem is blue??
Me: Huh, weird, I always thought of it as green. I mean it’s based off the saying “Little Green Men (LGM)” though i guess it has kinda a blue tint-
Mike: It’s grey.
Me: What?
I know right I'm so confused by this 🤣
@Lukas Panteli yeah that's true
I've have always thought Elgyem was blue
ITS SO BLUE!!!
He is waring glasses that filter blue light to lessen eye strain. He is staring through a yellow/orange lens this strips out some of the blue shades on the other side of the color wheel. If you rob Elgyem of the mint color it is you end up with something akin to grey. Does not explain the Sandaconda take though.... Its based off of a anaconda... there are MASSIVE green patches.
Wait Elgyem is supposed to be a reference to the term LGM. WHICH STANDS FOR LITTLE GREEN MEN WHY IS IT BLUE
Yeah...and even if it wasn't a little green man, it's other design inspiration is the Greys, which are also distinctly not blue.
Japan doesn't different green and blue I don't the think
And why did micheal say it was grey 😀
IT IS WHITE WH1TSGAJGAIWBAFAHAJAHSJ
Wow, I forgot elgyem was categorized as blue until just now. I actually thought it was categorized as grey until now. I only just realized cranidos and rampardos were categorized as blue, not grey very recently, really they have less blue than druddigon has red, it doesn't even cover their whole face. Also, I'm pretty sure I was today years old when I learned that Alolan marowak is categorized as purple, not black. Same with zygarde's 50% form being the only green one.
Elgyem being in blue is kinda baffling to me personally because it kinda looks like a pastel mint kinda color in my eyes, and also it'd just be more fitting to be in green given its namesake is based off the term "LGM", Little *Green* Man
And even if y'wanna brush that off as being a purely localization deal, in a similar vein to Mr. Mime having the masculine honorific despite being able to be female [even if the name was before genders were properly added in the following Generation], Elgyem's original Japanese name is Ligray, so going off of that, it should be grey like you originally assumed
Am I the only one that thinks elgyem looks very clearly blue? I see zero Grey on that thing idk what yall are talking about
@@BlazingJ972
I mean there are pokémon categorized as grey that look blue, like the machop line. I didn't necessarily say it looked blue to me, I just misremembered what colour the pokédex said it was.
@@BlazingJ972 Yeah, I only see blue too.
“Chimecho is flat out white”
Heh?
Boo
Weird
His glasses make blue light show less.
Chimecho is totally blue
go through shield as a “gym leader” and pick a type and you can only use pokémon of that type and of course you could use duel types not just strictly your one type
Bruh that is just a epic idea
And then you add nuzlock challenge
Mono type run
I actually like that
Michael: Druddigon can't be in red cuz its face is red
Also Michael: Litten your face is red, eh its fine
You have 65 likes but no comments? TH-cam is weird sometimes
I think Mikey might be colorblind. He says that the Porygons are pink when they're red and that Garchomp and Skorupi are blue when they are so purple.
I agree, except for the Garchomp part.
Pokemon: designs Elgyem, based off the "little green men" aliens, and name it a shortening of that name.
also Pokemon: this is clearly blue.
The first Taillow I got in Pokémon emerald was shiny so I always thought Taillow and Swellow were green....and I thought Winona’s was shiny XD. I thought the sparkles meant it was super strong.
XD lol
Better than it being a dead Taillow.
First time I got a shiny I was younger and thought my game was broke lol
Broncos4life721 Wow, you just casually wasted a shiny.... congrats.
ShardTheDDon I was like 10 😂
Okay but I looked up a picture of Chimecho, and I saw a screenshot from Ruby. Chimecho is most certainly blue.
An argument could be made for white and blue
Amazing how badly they botched this. Both with the categorization, and the color in the art. Like, How did they mess this up this bad?!?!
A nuzlocke of Shield is something I would watch I did a Nuzlocke of Shield already and it was very fun and challenging
Extreme Randomizer Nuzlocke.
Don't you rember?? He has said before that he doesn't like nuzlockes, so I don't think that would be a good idea
Bruh I said the same thing but in a different version
Then how about a Can you beat Shield with a Castform?
Impossible
I will die on this hill:
*ELGYEM IS GREEN!*
*GREEN!!*
Well it should be green but it’s way more blue for some reason.
Its name is even pronounced like LGM, which means Little Green Man!
It’s literally LGM, aka the Little GREEN Men. So yeah, it’s a pale mint green.
Absolutely tea green*
IT'S GRAAAAAAAAAAAAY
Me with color blindness: "Yes that's red, no problem here"
Michael: "That's not red, that's orange/pink"
Maybe the one to sort the Pokemon by colors was color blind too
What color is your (and mine) profile picture for you?
Hahaha XD
@KiwiPower Green yours is a bright green and his is a navy blue
As someone else who’s colorblind idk why I’m watching this yet it’s so interesting
His is navy blue but like dark. His is the swellow honchkrow and murkrow colored navy blueish black. I will die on the hill that those birds blue tint aside should have all been in black cause it was that thing where it's supposed to be black but they gave it a bit of color to make it have that kinda feather glow birds have in the sun. And the one who asked the colors yours is between like a green apple green a true green and a lime green and has that like neon highlighter color brightness to it. So for me it's hard to tell the difference but I am not colorblind so that doesn't answer your question properly XD
33:29 The corvi in Corviknight is probably referring to ravens which I guess ravens have a purple sheen
I think you should do a different kind of “Locke” than a nuzlocke in sword
Like another wonderlocke, egglocke, etc.
I think it would be fun if you collaborated with someone and did a cagelocke or something like that
I think thats a good idea he can get eggs from his Patreons
@@yugiboy247 i like that idea too
Thats boring
I WANNA SEE IT WITH ONLY ONE SHEDINJA
11:02 I think this might be judging not so much as the amount of a particular color, but by which color is the most eye catching in the overall design. So this one right here gets listed as blue because it's the color that stands out.
Pokemon: Elgyem LGM Little Green Man
Also Pokemon: Blue
Mikey; It's gray
To me its more a combo of blue and gray
Alolan Meowth/Persian being Blue is probably referring to "Russian Blue", a breed of cat which is an odd shade of gray lol.
I just love how Michael is doing this with green tinted glasses on, it's just great.
Isn't it yellow tinge... Wait are you wearing gamer goggles to watch this!!!
@@artrexreborn4940 Nah I'm just colour blind lol
Release the wall
they’re yellow
Is it only me who finds it funny that Michael ist wearing YELLOW glasses while judging the filter based on the colour of the Pokémon
Yep, only checked the comments to find this one.
I was wondering why I was disagreeing with him on some lol
Don’t diss the gamer goggles boi
Ya the glasses get rid of blue light so ya
Mikey: bulbasaur is a weird Pokémon
Bulbasaur: *angry talk show host noises*
Also Mikey: Bulbasuar is the best equipped for a Kanto play through
@@palisadescrewkevin8109 *slightly less angry talk show host noises*
On your pokemon shield you could do an eeveelution challenge: every time you beat a gym you need to add an eevee to your team, which will be evolved later. By the end of the playthrough, your whole team will be eeveelutions. Every pokemon on your team must be a different eeveelution.
pkmn shield, but only weird coloured pokemon count (shinies included)
thought that it was a good idea
This video made me feel quite colorblind.
Agreed

Go sub to Podleplayz to if you want a shout out!!!
Michael: Elgeyem is grey
Also Michael: Ah yes Komala is very clearly blue
It is blue
bruh komala is blue
Komala: clearly grey and blue, but definettly more grey.
Elgeyem: clearly blue and green, but definettly more blue
@@maple3432 Elgyem is green
Yeah, komala‘s definitely grey
personally i think applin being green makes sense since applin is actually the worm inside the apple but not the apple itself
*Looking at Bronzor and golurks line*
Me: Wait, Its all Green?
Gamefreak: Always has been!
Oh ya that's completely green 😅😅😂😂
They both have green in their shinies so they probably made the colour value the same as the shiny for those 2.
to true
It’s green and bronzong is green and grayish
It’s because they’re copper
Michael: Red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red... *Sees Porygon2* WHAT?!
alternate title: poketuber rages over misplacement of pokemon being in a color category it sholdn’t be in
35:14,abra line is talking about abra,kadabra,and alakazam's brown crop tops

I thinknthe reason some of these pokemon are under there colors is because of what your eyes are drawn too on them.

HE NEVER LOOKS AT HIS REPLIES AS WELL LIKE WTF
They obviously had no clue what to do with the “blurple” ones at all. About as good at making up their minds there as they did with hot pink
"In what universe is Bronzong GREEN?"
Actually the recently released Diamond and Pearl Beta sprites show that Bronzong was originally meant to be a teal. It was probably classified as green then and they forgot to fix it before the release... then never fixed it afterwards...?
Ok either my logic is skewed or Game Freak is as lazy as we think they are. -_-
It’s probably just wrong colour classification because I doubt that they gave classifications before the Pokemon’s final design was released but very interesting theory
In what universe is bronzong green?
The shinydex universe
I mean its colour is inbetween Blue and Green so it can be put in both groups. It looks like teal which is a shade of Cyan and can fit into both Green and Blue
I love that you did this while wearing tinted glasses. You're still pretty spot-on, it just feels like it's memeable.
Anyone else see how Mikey is wearing tinted “Gamer Goggles” which may change his color perception...
Me!!
He still knows what colors the Pokemon are by heart, though
@@brandokalrizian not Elgyem apparently
@@brandokalrizian definitely not haxorus though
@@GokuOfBanban To be fair, like he said that haxorus was yellow but other art is green
3:47 "red and brown are distinctly different"
Me who's colorblind and gets them mixed up
Same
Elgyem is a pun on the abbreviation "L.G.M." or "Little Green Man" used to refer to aliens. Little GREEN man.
could be Little Grey Men :p
It still ain’t green tho ?
@SixthSense it is green
its extremely green
@ItsRuby actually it is more of a green teal
"got the three primary colors, but only 2 of the secondary colors?"
M&M's: (Awkwardly tugs at their shirt)
You could do a play through challenge of only using Shield exclusive Pokemon.
Your pfp Is cursed
I personally already did it with sword instead of shield. I included flapple in it (at least once it evolved) because flapple really can only be gotten in Sword without trading.
Just catch a Galarian Corsola and give it an eviolite. Easy playthrough.
i was gonna comment this i think it would be good
What the hell is that pfp
Fans: doesn't understand GameFreak's logic in pokemon coloring.
GameFreak: we don't care what you think. Cause it's our game, and not yours.

Finally! Someone who actually considers the fact that Pokemon is GAMEFREAKS game, and therefore, GAMEFREAK can do whatever they want with it!
12:23 “I have been judged for my incorrect colour analysis”.
Says this whilst wearing yellow tinted glasses.
Did anyone else notice him go right past whimsicott in the green that should either be brown or white
19:34 His reaction to Bronzor being in the green category...
technically it is a shade of green idk tho just stating fact
Ha
0:48 Actually, Applin is green because its the worm, not the apple
Lol
I would love to see a “No New Moves” play through challenge of shield, seeing as HMs are a thing of the past.
Sounds cool
I don’t miss HMs they’re kinda garbage
Except surf
Every Pokemon game from X and Y to present day are way too easy so it wouldn’t be much of a challenge.😕
It would be cool, but poor michael, he already passed by that in emerald.
Dippy Well thank god! HMs and Grinding was so HARD back in the day
13:15 so are we gonna talk about how Mikey called Chimeco white?
THERE SHOULD BE 2 H'S IN CHIMECHO! WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP SPELLING THE NAME WITH JUST ONE H?
@@Amelia4111 I think it's because chime-eck-cho's pronunciation would sound weird. Nonetheless, I'll see about changing it
I feel like this is bringing back memories from the Blazed Glazed let’s play elite four.
His glasses totally messed with the colors (all the colors would loose blue tones)
me when he has yellow glasses and still thinks haxorus is green
@@ItsRubyGD haxourous is green easy google search (sorry he my fav pokemon don't know if you were saying he is)
@@alienfriend9466 The pokemon is gold/yellow
@@WhiteKnightProductions123 it is green

Michael: I'm gonna judge colours!
also Micheal: wears orange tinted glasses
i had a teacher (when i was a kid)
she told us, that her husband was wearing sunglasses
so, the hamburgers looked pink
even when were clearly about to be done
a salmon tint or so
And bam! logic
32:07 I can't decide if John is color blind or me bc Skorupi is most definitely a shade of purple and not blue
Yeah...
as a person who actually played the tcg competitively I found many oddly coloured cards
