@@carrion8752ball guy is no joke. ball guy is life
Just played through BDSP, and the Cynthia fight is like suddenly having 6 microwaves that aren't quite powerful enough to cook the 6 different-flavored hot pockets you want to eat, so you have to futz with the wiring for 3 hours, figuring out if you should just overpower one of the microwaves or balance the strain between them all, and you can't go back because there's 4 microwave puzzles you went through just to get here.
So eventually you just unplug the microwaves for a couple weeks and wonder why you didn't pick up a Fairy-type microwave along the way.
If it helps you, I picked up two microwaves by the brans Luxray and Garchomp that made the cooking a lot easier

“Hotpockets are a quick stressful meal.”
My cousin put a hot pocket into the microwave for to long and ended up burning the hot pocket
How? HOW??? Hot pockets are almost fail-proof, is your microwave just an on and off button and you have to time the food yourself?
@@thatoneinternetguy9258 you have to time the food yourself
The wrong button was pressed.

I use clever positioning in the microwave and precise timing to avoid roof-burning hot pockets.

See, watching TH-cam is like eating fast food. You know the basic components and taste of every channel. You eat too much of one channel and you're like hey, can we eat at a different restaurant, like maybe Emkay Damieno's or Russian Baffet.

@@DougDoug And THAT is something to be proud of.
Doug: So...are we just gonna do food rev-
Everyone: *YES*
Just do more food stuff in general, it's a unique spin on reviews, analysis, news, etc.
I just commented on this 😂
The issue for me is that when you look at each generation side by side, you see a weird decline in certain content depth and quantity. It's weird though because quality of life changes have definitely always been on an incline. Except the weird murder of TMs being reusable. Why they reneged on that, we'll never know.
I like how no one notices on how he’s just sitting in a pot the whole time

If this man ever stopped doing food reviews my life would immediately end.
So I agree with the whole "push one button to win" thing to an extent... cause when you start getting into high end gameplay things get really weird and using the move with the type advantage isnt always the best move, and you do end up using A LOT of non-attacking moves. (just figured i would give a more informed view vs what seems to be a fairly casual view)
He's not reviewing the pvp though, just the base game. And as someone who has played through a lot of pokemon games in the last few years, the strategy of spamming type effective moves will get you through all of it.
Me when i have to use swords dance 4 times before attacking
Ball guy needs a whole video to himself, how dare you gave him just one segment
Dougdoug has the "balls" to do it... I'll put myself in the poké ball

Yes, but also
Y E S
These are honestly just super effective at pointing out strengths, weaknesses, and/or differences with games.
Nice pun
I had tons of replayability because I did online competitive. Finding the coolest Pokemon and grinding out its level and moveset and stats, and then your hard work goes out onto the battlefield... it's great
One of these days, Doug should do something like "Taxes, but explained with [Insert Game Here]" to teach people how to, well, do taxes
That's assuming Mr. ADD incarnate has the ability to do taxes (I have ADD and I know I don't lol)

@Cannon Raborn that’s called literal trash
To me, it feels like a game has to be near impossible for people to not say that it’s “too easy”(I’ve played many games and yet I still failed WAY too many times in the second gym).
He made me smile in the literal first second. There was no sound, nothing happening at all, just a pot in a kitchen. All of a sudden, a man in a chef hat just pops up from the pot and talks about Pokémon. It's an unusual thing to see. I love it.
Funny how you say you’re coming at sword and shield from an inexperienced angle and yet still come to the same conclusion pretty much everyone else has.
No matter how bad the game, since the core mechanics are so fun, the only way to mess up the game is by messing up the battle system/catching system
Even though like 20 seconds into the video he says he saw reviews online
hot pockets don't have to be fancy - they don't cost 59.99
One doesn't, but a lot of them do (?)

3:35 online battles require some skill, they're pretty fun
Agreed, but maybe new players should stay with casual online battles, cause mid to high rank competitive can be tedious, difficult, and repetitive. They're still fun when you have the hang of them but I think new players get turned off by them
Official Pokemon games: "Just press strong move button to win."
Fan Made Pokemon games like Reborn, Clover, and Insurgence: "God has mercy, we don't"
I clicked this because I saw "Pokemon" and "Food" in the title. I did NOT expect this to be that funny. I then proceeded to watch more videos of yours and realized just how funny you are. VERY. THE ANSWER IS VERY FUNNY. I have never seen somebody as creative as you. No one else would think to play a video game using only their VOICE or to play a video game using only the TWITCH STREAM CHAT or to explain video games using FOOD. I'm just... I'm in awe.

Yea that's a good one!!
i love how even in the battle where the hot pocket gag first shows the dude when he loses says "you showed a little bit of effort, so i guess i SHOULD let you win"
The beauty of hot pockets is that they're simple to cook and taste, good enough for how little effort you put in, and inexpensive enough to validate their nutritional value, I don't think nintendo/gamefreak really understand that last part, I'm not about to pay the same amount I do for the ingredients of my favorite pasta recipe also for the instant cup equivalent of a calzone

Totally!
So much time goes into simply scripting these videos combined with recording or editing and they come out somewhat frequently I don't know how he does it
One of the most sophisticated and hight-quality videos i have ever seen on this platform.
I like the hot pocket analogy because you could theoretically cook a hot pocket in a more traditional way, you just have to take it out of how its intended, and do things differently.
"Ok, well I haven't eaten in 20 YEARS, AND I AM STARVING!"
That will never not get me

You should do more "explained with food" videos. These are great!
This makes me excited for an smt nocturne explained with food whenever it does come out.
For someone who doesn't know what he's doing, you're doing a pretty good job.
IMO, explaining *basically anything* that you're interested in with food is a solid concept, because your interest in the topic is what fuels the creative analogies.

This was a fun review! I really love the food comparisons... It really helps flesh the review out more and provides some flavor. Like adding spices to a dish!
Explaining Doug's food reviews with food. We need to go deeper.
@@metamayto your idea is like eating in a kebab restaurant, it's just a simple meat you eat daily and there is nothing spec... WAIT HOLD ON THAT THAT IS ACTUALLY SO GOOD HOLY SHIT THE FLAVOR, THE SMELL AND EVEN THE SERVICE IS QUITE GOOD, I WILL EAT THIS EVERYDAY!
A low effort shitpost in a video form that will be extremely enjoyable and interesting.
Alright, I know this wasn't immediately mentioned in the video, but I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks pokemon's difficulty progression is backwards.
It's like, you get your first pokemon, a paring knife, and your rival gets their potato peeler, and the first battle is 'alright guys, lets see who can skin this pear the fastest', like, it's a meh first battle, but that's because it's supposed to be simple and you've got no real tools to use for it.
Then you head out on the start of your journey, and collect a few more poketools, and you're fighting other trainers, and... level 10-15 is the sweet spot, where the battles actually take 3-4 turns per pokemon, and the debuff moves actually work instead of guaranteeing a loss by using them... and then, all of a sudden, at level 16, your paring knife evolves... into a microwave, and you just cook hot pockets for the rest of the game.
Don't get me wrong, some people might like the fact that as you get to higher and higher levels the game becomes exclusively glass canons, and one shot will kill anyone...
But personally? I and many others would like it if at higher levels the fights took longer. It's like you're going on iron chef and challenging them, and back at the start of your journey you were doing hour long competitions with people along the road to prove you were the better pokechef trainer, and you're finally here... and you're stuck in a lightning round scenario where you need to defeat each of the Iron 4 chefs within 30 seconds, and they're trying to cook these fantastic meals, but... you made hot pockets, and it's infinitely better than the first 30 seconds of a steak.
But then, you're face to face with pokechef league champion Gordon Ramsay, and you're expecting a massive fight... and he does the exact same thing the iron 4 did and puts out some vaguely moist spaghetti, while you're here with a hot pocket on a plate.
I just... think maybe if we boosted health and defense to the point where they actually mattered we'd be able to have a more fun game? At that point type matchups become even more important, as they'll have more time to be effective!
Noice mate
A lot of this comes from the way the game progresses. As you keep doing these little cook-off challenges along the road, you get better at making the hot pockets. And in the single player of the game, that's all you do. When you hit max level and face against others at max level, then it turns into something a bit better. Instead of cooking hot pockets in 1-2 turns per pokemon, you now are cooking instant ramen in 2-4 turns per pokemon. I agree that a slower pacing on the fights would be nice, I want to savor the delicious meal that is the core game-play mechanics, but a lot of it comes down to just how easy it is for you to improve your skills and having an endless supply of wild pokemon you can throw hot pockets at.
@@sabrinasummers9943 I personally beg to differ, the only difference between casual and competitive play is that in some competitive formats you're not allowed to use the 'omniblaster 5000' microwave to cook your hot-pockets, and sometimes people have opposing pokechefs you have to hit with 2 hot pockets to defeat, and those are the tanky ones. Think about it this way; You're a professional boxer, when you were an amateur, could you take more or less hits? Honestly it's probably around the same because as you've gotten better at taking hits, other people have gotten better at hitting, and vice versa, now we look at pokemon, where everything has nigh world-ending power in three of it's four moveslots, and no one can take even a single hit. It's just sad that we don't have any more gameplay than 'hey what pokemon are they going to choose? Ah that means I should pick 'BS OP 'mon #4' and take them out immediately, oh no they chose a different one! Well I don't have disadvantage so it all comes down to speed for who wins this matchup!' Like... I want actual battles! Let fighting the Elite Four be a multi-hour ordeal of the hardest fights in the game, that really pushes you to your limits! And competitive... well, I really don't care for competitive, but they'll survive, thrive even in a strategy-based system.
@@glitchwolf1384 Admittedly yes, though I find that the level disparity causes a lot of the one or two turn microwave times. Even in the main game, if you limit your level to be around the average of the next big trainer fight, you'll get 2-3 turns per pokemon. Not a significant improvement to the recipe, sure, but it helps show ways one can step in the right direction.
@@sabrinasummers9943 then that's a signal that the games should increase the levels of those big trainer fights to be in line with what they expect you to have!
The relationship that you make with your (original) pokemon is like making hot pockets. You put 0 effort into making the dish, and so you don't remember it. But when you decide to make a fancy meal, you love it. You put so much work into it, and it all pays off. Eating hot pockets is the bare minimum that you need to do to survive. When you make a really good meal, you savor it.
I think that's how you say it.
I love these type of vids
"As you can tell, I don't know what I'm doing"
Don't worry, I really don't either
“I wish I had a reason to use all those cool utility and debuff moves”
Competitive Pokemon Player: oh BOY let me tell you something
You saved me the effort of writing this 👍
Competitive Pokemon. One of the biggest jokes there is.
@@Lunartic_ And why that ?
I'm just curious to see what arguments you have against a 20 years old strategy-based battle system in competitive ?
Do you think games like Fortnite are better in Competitive maybe ? :')
@@KamenKuro Because there really isn't much strategy. There's the Meta pokemon that should be used and you just breed and pray RNGesus to get a good Pokemon.
Even in the battles themselves you are trying to counter their type Pokemon. Moves with status effect serve little more purpose in competitive but a turn-based game will never have much skill or depth in combat.
Never played Fortnite so I wouldn't know is it better. Could be same shit. But fighting games like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, etc, etc have more depth to them and your personal skill plays a bigger role than what character you and your opponent is using.
@@Lunartic_ You haven't played Pokémon Showdown, haven't you ?
The strategy isn't how you build your Pokémon, IT'S HOW YOU PICK the types and the other Pokémons, and the attacks, and the items while taking in account many other stuff
Yeah, there's a meta, but unlike other games it isn't mandatory to win. You can defeat a meta team easily if you know how to use your brain.
Fighting games are a faster thinking kind of game. You need to act fast, react fast etc..
I don't deny that those games are really great in competitive.
But Competitive Pokémon isn't "Breed and Meta", that's something that could be applied to many other games as well.
Do more of this I agree with e most of your points love the vis
I can relate dude...I haven't played a main Pokemon game until SWSH, but I've seen pokemon from older gens...
I love the “Explained With Food” videos. They are so unique and hilarious. I’m totally down to see more.
"Do you want more-"
YES
This is really good at explaining Hot Pockets.
The reason I like the Pokémon games personally is the competitive scene its like a whole new take to me there’s so many more things to learn and memorize and that what makes it interesting to me but that’s just my opinion
