Jasmine’s story is what makes her mother to me. She has a strong tie to ampharos, a known mother. Plus, while her gym gives minimalism, you have to beat the lighthouse before you challenge her, and lighthouses are a serve. Plus, Jasmine is a woman in STEM.
Yes! I feel like her connection to Ampharos and the Olivine Lighthouse should be considered. She truly is a unique case. You could argue that she is Mother because of that, but I'd also understand if she stays in Girlypop because her team is SO much the opposite of a Girlypop aesthetic. However, that's mostly because there weren't any true girly Steel types until Gen III. Magnemite was really the best they had to work with in that regard.
Idk, i think Faulkner definitely could be in "looks around", MAYBE even "okay" if you're a fan of his. He's giving emo boy, and not the edgy variant but a softer variant. I can see my middle school myself bopping to my chemical romance together with him for sure. He's not worse than chuck at least. Karen deserves mother, thats all im gonna say. She's the patron saint of dark type girly pop, a pioneer, a visionary, and has one of the most iconic quotes in the series with her "weak pokémon, strong pokémon" philosophy.
As far as I am able to remember, Faulkner was my first crush. I got Crystal when it released and I INSTANTLY fell for him at age 6. Totally agree on the soft emo look. Which begs the question... Are we born with types?
Falkner just needs a rebrand. Right now, he's giving bored guy using his dads pokemon. Get that man a cape, some blue falconry gloves, and some none uggo birb types. Let him give us the aloof birb keeper fantasy he's too chicken to commit to.
the juxtaposition between jasmine and her team’s vibes only enhances her girlypop to me. like, shes this adorable, dainty girl who commands these gigantic powerful beasts and it’s such a slay
My problem with Bugsy is that he has a ladybug badge in a generation where a ladybug Pokémon is introduced and it’s NEVER been on his team. I just can’t overlook that.
Part of the Johto mysteries, alongside WHY Faulkner didn't run a hoothoot, or Morty a Misdreavus in the first place, or Karen a Tyranitar. They could have also given Withney a Teddiursa and nerf a little bit her Miltank, that would've avoid so much trauma...
@@bryanmora2047 In the beta Faulkner gets even more wild he actually had a 3rd Pokémon a lvl 10 Pigeot, not a hoot hoot I fucking pigeot Bro had the whole pidgy line
As for Jasmine, I think she's at least girlypop and her teams serves that through subversion. Usually, the team has to have girlypop representation, manlypop is an optional piece of decor. In Jasmine's case - she IS the girlypop representation, the spotlight is on her as the trainer serving heels and lace elegance, while her almost exclusively manlypop team functions as her accessories. She is their princess and her team is her knight, castle, and dragon protectors.
EXACTLY it's like cute girly with a giant mech. Timeless. Jasmine's always wearing dainty light dresses which seems opposite to her typing but the contrast works so well. Not to mention, the color scheme on her league team is perfect it's a bouquet of steel. She's the perfect example of contrasting, complementing aesthetics
It’s always interesting to see how Whitney was always paired with Chuck in older art, they had a fun manlypop-girlypop solidarity vibe. I wish it stuck around, it was a fun dynamic
jasmines gym is actually the lighthouse, there’s where you battle the trainers and solve the puzzles, and ampharos is her main pokémon, opposed to her ace steelix. If you look on the major picture, a princess on top of a tower, fighting to keep her pet’s health, it’s pretty girlypop to me
Johto is my favorite region because of heartgold and how everyone ate. The fact that falkner never used a noctowl OR a murkrow is criminal, but Bugsy Witney and Morty (plus the kimono girls) really picked up the slack and ran with it Also, Morty was definitely the girly pop's regional crush. No shade to Bruno or Lance but... Morty was that guy 😍
Right? I was on Pokemon RP forums (basically group fanfic sites) back in the day and Morty was one of the most popular characters on there. He was ALWAYS one of the first claimed canon characters, and RP forums tended to lean very fem.
I do sorta like how Jasmine's soft/feminine design is juxtaposed with rough, masculine steel types. I can see what the designers were going for with her and I respect it (especially since the girliest steel type at the time was Magnemite or Skarmory. They didn't have much to work with). Plus, she has that connection with Ampharos (a very cute/girly pokemon). You don't usually see gym leaders with Pokemon that they don't use in their gym, especially ones of a different type. But it makes her feel like a more fleshed-out character that she has a pokemon she keeps as a pet AND that has a job in the story- keeping the lighthouse lit. Still, I agree with her being in Girlypop instead of Mother, since her team very much does NOT fit the aesthetic.
Okay, the TH-cam algorithm and thumbnail brought me here during work office hours and I got quite a laugh! What a fun idea! Jasmine is one of my favorite characters in the entire franchise. Her character, dialogue, being the first "notable" Steel trainer, and fierce battle sprite.
I LOVEEEEE what you’ve been doing on the channel ❤️ maybe after this series you can do a “design the perfect girlypop trainer & teams” for each type that would be soooo fun! xoxo
sorry for Faulkner but the second where a trainer add a Charizard to their team it's an immediat skiiiiiiip ! If Charizard has no hater then I'm dead and deceased 😔
Sorry but I have to say that Lockstin made a great series of videos explaining all the gym badges from gen 1 to gen 6 (In the final episode he quickly talks about the other badges from gen 8 and 9)
Since you mentioned it I NEED to talk about the event that came with Whitney and Jasmine's holiday outfits, it was adorable. Jasmine's Ampharos is sick, and Whitney says they should throw a party for it to cheer it (and Jasmine, who is upset about Ampharos). She goes around getting people to come to the party, and getting gifts for Jasmine and Ampharos, she even battles Leon. But Jasmine spends too much time preparing and doesn't sleep, so she faints at the party. Whitney cries, because she was worried. The next day there's a cute scene where Jasmine describes Whitney as " awarm light that brightens both us and the city" it is SO CUTE.
the improvements from the last video in this series make me so excited for you to release more of these!! love ur content so so much, thanks for the video!!
I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ALL DAY PHAUN!! I am beyond happy with the results, especially Bugsy! A win for the boylypops and girlypops! This was the best video to end my day with so I can go sleep now :D
Jasmine from Pokemon was my introduction to the name Jasmine. Her being a steel type trainer made my brain think for like 20 years that jasmine was a type of gemstone. Then I found out that it was a plant.
I know other people are saying it, but Jasmine really is mother. She’s got the looks, the story, and I’d argue the pokemon (honestly her connection with ampharos is super girlypop). Because she’s so girlypop, having big huge steel types just enhances that for me. She’s the tiny girl with the giant fucking hammer that’ll murder you in her pastel ice-cream-looking gym
This video had me feeling so nostalgic because Crystal was my first Pokemon game. Jasmine holds such a special place in my heart and will always be Mother to me.
Please include the battle frontier brains and rivals ( Wally and Zinnia really need to be mentioned in Girlypop videos) in Hoenn please cuz we are missing Silver and Red in this video😢
I think it's okay to consider the teams in rematches etc, but I would've preferred giving the original encounters more credit. This is really where Bugsy being Mother loses me a little. His Scyther, framed by two cocoons is giving something, but it's not really girlypop at all. Disappointingly he doesn't use Ledian, which would've been an obvious choice. Jasmine has her whole lighthouse storyline which is why her gym is bland: she's the first gym leader who has her own dungeon you have to get through before she even returns to her gym. Also Steelix is more girlypop than it looks at first glance. Venus in Colosseum ran Attract Steelix and it's such a moment. Then we get to Claire, whose original team was three Dragonairs and a Kingdra. In HGSS she adds Gyarados, but the rest of the flops are happening in rematches where she's somehow Lancidfied. I feel like she's an obvious Mother, with her Kingdra being such an iconic main. Plus she just flat out denies you her badge until her elder forces her to give it to you, what a brat lol. I think it's interesting that Bugsy and Morty especially could've been better had they included the new Johto mons to their teams. Or imagine Falkner with Hoothoot, Natu or maybe even Murkrow. So sad.
Hear me out: should we be considering villains in each region? Hoenn has some stars in Aqua and Magma, and idk maybe the Rocket admins would’ve been a lil fun extra dive into Poison Girlypop. Just throwing it out there love the vids Phaun!!
Why is no one talking about the footage of HGSS with the Clefairy literally being modded into being a trainer? It's too funny in concept, like a Pokémon said "You know what? Battling is not for me" and proceeded to do a pokéception by becoming a Pokémon who's a Pokémon trainer to show humans how it's done
LOVE seeing Johto get the respect it deserves, especially my terminally underrated Bugsy! Also, all your points about Whitney are valid and true, and yet I'll never forgive her for unleashing Rollout all over my middle school aged butt.
As a kid I had the fattest crush on Morty (who is called Angelo in Italian, which I quite like) Tho tbf my first experience with Johto was Soul Silver, I doubt that gen 2 Morty would have made the same impression 💀
Jasmine’s story is what makes her mother to me. She has a strong tie to ampharos, a known mother. Plus, while her gym gives minimalism, you have to beat the lighthouse before you challenge her, and lighthouses are a serve. Plus, Jasmine is a woman in STEM.
Additionally I always give them credit for having the first ever Steel gym leader be such a caring girl as opposed to an obvious manly man type
Yes! I feel like her connection to Ampharos and the Olivine Lighthouse should be considered. She truly is a unique case.
You could argue that she is Mother because of that, but I'd also understand if she stays in Girlypop because her team is SO much the opposite of a Girlypop aesthetic. However, that's mostly because there weren't any true girly Steel types until Gen III. Magnemite was really the best they had to work with in that regard.
I also feel like the contrast between cute girl and giant scary monster is a serve by itself
@@coelipedro LITERALLY just a girl and her scary dog(s). that's a good thing
Plus she participates in pokemon contests, which are obviously the most girlypop events
Ms. "Use your favourites" Karen will always be Mother to me. That's the iconic attitude, that's serving your own way
fun fact whitney's gym is shaped as a clefairy
And Jasmine’s is shaped like a Steelix!
@@domenicavallone28 Wait, is it really?
WAIT WHAAAAAT
It's also pink

I’m in a hurricane but I have to watch this
Be safe out there babe!

6:06 also how the gym is literally a pixel art clefairy like shes eatingggg
this because how did i JUST NOTICE IT
And Jasmine’s HGSS is a steelix!

its givin Khaleesi
The way this is so on point
Yesssss very much cute girl with mecha, exactly! She really gives mother in the sense she is showing you HOW to use the steel type in a new way
She’s really futuristic actually
00:08 Hold on girl. What're Koga and Morty doing up there like that? Morty giving him them eyes.
i love how you sent your girlypop representatives in to inspect each gym
It’s always interesting to see how Whitney was always paired with Chuck in older art, they had a fun manlypop-girlypop solidarity vibe. I wish it stuck around, it was a fun dynamic
Right? That one art from adventures tells you everything you need to know about those vibes
ANOTHER ENTRY IN GIRLYPOPOLOGY BY YOU YAYYYY
the way Karen went from wet seal to full glam between appearances, ha all-stars glow-up!
Phaun, THIS EDITING!!!
jasmines gym is actually the lighthouse, there’s where you battle the trainers and solve the puzzles, and ampharos is her main pokémon, opposed to her ace steelix. If you look on the major picture, a princess on top of a tower, fighting to keep her pet’s health, it’s pretty girlypop to me
honestly she's MOTHER cus she doesn't even NEED performative girlypop pokemon to give. she is that girl
Whitney being in mother is right she made sure generations remember her with the miltank
Johto is my favorite region because of heartgold and how everyone ate. The fact that falkner never used a noctowl OR a murkrow is criminal, but Bugsy Witney and Morty (plus the kimono girls) really picked up the slack and ran with it

There are no words to describe how much I want unova and alola
Sad to know that Alola only has 4 mayor "gym leader" figures in the Kahunas, but I hope Phaun includes the trial captains as well
the way i screamed at the nelly furtado bit 😭
sorry for Faulkner but the second where a trainer add a Charizard to their team it's an immediat skiiiiiiip ! If Charizard has no hater then I'm dead and deceased 😔
The Nelly furtado moment, oh this is why i love your stuff. Another great video.
Phaun, LOVING this new series! Please do it all bby! We support you and your amazing energy and insight ❤️
Love,
Psymarky

Lockstin mentioned, I love his videos!

what is beautiful about jasmine is the softness in her look in contrast with the aggressiveness of her team
that Morty x Koga at the intro GAGGED me
we are eating!!!
PERIOD✨✨✨
Love this new series, thank you! ♥
And aNOTHER Queen Nelly Furtado cameo, I continue to live!
I know other people are saying it, but Jasmine really is mother. She’s got the looks, the story, and I’d argue the pokemon (honestly her connection with ampharos is super girlypop).
Because she’s so girlypop, having big huge steel types just enhances that for me. She’s the tiny girl with the giant fucking hammer that’ll murder you in her pastel ice-cream-looking gym
This is a gift amidst the storm thank you
Your channel is *massively* underrated holy shit.
phaaaaun you did it again, these videos are so goooood

@6:13 I love how its the lining of clefairy
Girl a pokemon towns tier list would eat 😩 Also how girlypop is each evil team! Loving that these conversations are finally being had
Omg! A Pokemon makeover video, comparing and ranking trainers and gym leaders between the originals and remakes would be *amazing* !
Oh this is a video I’ll be watching multiple, multiple times!!!
This video had me feeling so nostalgic because Crystal was my first Pokemon game. Jasmine holds such a special place in my heart and will always be Mother to me.
The I’m like a bird edit was iconic
The way I gasped when you skipped Falkner.... I will continue watching to see where this goes.
literally so sick today thank u phaun for a pokemon upload i have the strength to continue
Mother is feeding her children with *gourmet* girlypop content omg it's a blessed day
0:50 All this time I never knew that's how the intro for Violet City is supposed to sound. Blew my mind!
You’re flying type, that’s for sure, mother ❤ Love you and this series so much 🎉
Can't wait for the Hoenn video! Roxanne, Flannery, Winona, Wallace, Phoebe and Glacia just getting ready
Please include the battle frontier brains and rivals ( Wally and Zinnia really need to be mentioned in Girlypop videos) in Hoenn please cuz we are missing Silver and Red in this video😢

Typing this 5 seconds into the video: Karen is mother, there shall be no debate.
Oh this has me excited for Hoenn. Winona, Phoebe, WALLACE??? That region is Mother comet's ground zero
Another one thank you
Loving these rank videos! *Please* tell me we get one with rivals, players characters, and side characters like Eusine, Looker, and Zenia!
Hear me out: should we be considering villains in each region? Hoenn has some stars in Aqua and Magma, and idk maybe the Rocket admins would’ve been a lil fun extra dive into Poison Girlypop. Just throwing it out there love the vids Phaun!!
The Rocket Executives are absolutely girlypop
7:41 the use of this filter is so funny to me idk y 💀💀💀
I SCREAMED at the “I’m frumpy cuz I’m broke”
Just had the best smoke sesh to this fr
Oh slay

Ever since Morty got his HG/SS update he's been nothing short of super attractive to me...sleepy-looking nerd husband ☺
As a kid I had the fattest crush on Morty (who is called Angelo in Italian, which I quite like)
Tho tbf my first experience with Johto was Soul Silver, I doubt that gen 2 Morty would have made the same impression 💀
TWO (2) GIRLYPOP TIERLISTS IN TWO (2) DAYS???????? we are being fed good this is my thanksgiving dinner🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️
We've been eating good lately, girls!
Thank you for working hard for our entertainment phaun. ♡
