![Major-General's Song [feat. Darby Cupit and Juno] || Internet Remix Cover](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/S9iAiqHAjI8/mqdefault.jpg)
I can't wait for people to link this in Twitter arguments
I mean it's everything people criticize but in song form
@@yoshe4223 not everything, there's much more to criticize
joe mama
You think that just because people are predictable, they're not right for doing it?
@Mr. Pokirby That’s a good point, if a large group of people dislike the game then there is merit to their critiques
Scott going to be singing? This has to be good.
No it doesnt
ScottFalco My gamer
@@ScottFalco bad in a good way is still considered good in my book
Spoiler it was terrible
@@williambenton9959 Scott has a hard time taking complements but at least he isnt a dick when it isn't warranted.
As the words of Reggie go...
"If it ain't fun, why bother."
And the game was fun so that's good
Game was fun, but v e r y flawed
...I haven’t played the game, but I like watching _m a n y_ reviews and researching games and most I haven’t played, so I think im allowed to voice my opinion and say... it just seems kinda boring. Not many puzzles and stuff. And I only said that I think I’m allowed to voice my opinion because you shouldn’t voice your opinion on something you don’t know enough about. Of course it depends on what it is too but in general, have reasons to your opinion.
WTF was I originally saying? Eh, whatever
“HeartGold/SoulSilver and Black/White 2 are the best games fight me.”
But it’s the truth
TheNameIsX hgss are the best
Like, objectively those games were the best ones. Maybe B/W has the best story, but when it comes to gameplay B2/W2 and HG/SS are the best, due to being polished sequels with an already develop world (Specially B2/W2 with all the new content). And somehow IGN A.K.A team magma think SW/SH and S/M are the best ones which is a big lie.
Lmao too bad Pokémon dp/p weren’t all that bad either but they had major issues as well
くまのプーさん like how they were slow as fuck
Yeah it’s my favorite
Haven’t try the 5th gen but I have a ds so I could get it
Can we all collectively agree that the best way to voice your opinions is through musicals
Like what if presidential debates evolved into people spitting bars on national television
Two hours of politicians angrily singing at each other while avoiding the questions
So
Hamilton?
Wait for Ace Watkins to slay his opponents in a rap battle with his Parappa the Rapper skills.
Not going to lie I would watch the debates more if that was the case
Presidential candidate Kanye West is gonna have an amazing campaign come 2020
Sword and Shield: You can move the camera! That’s huge!
Mario 64: Uhh yeah, sure bud...
Little
Literally every 3D legend of zelda game after wind waker:
Ok, zoomer
@@theman6422 INCLUDING Wind Waker.
@@gunslingergirl2579 Even OOT let you move the camera with z targetting...
Man, they stole the camera AND the trees from Mario 64? Laaaaazy.
And you can't even move the camera outside of certain sections of the game.
Scott: time for negative comments telling me im trash and my opinion is wrong
The comment section: **80% agrees with him**
Just because your opinion is "trash", doesn't me you're "trash", always remember that.
happens so much on youtube….with youtubers saying how they'll get comments of people saying how they disagree but most of the time people will agree
But of course. SwSh is a hurtful disrecpect and disappointment.
@@xangods agree to disagree on that last part
@@greninjais_life5244 dude it doesn't even have the most popular pokemon of all that is also you're profile pic i mean he won the pole twice now
Scott Falco: opinion
The internet: NO, WRONG, YOU’RE TOXIC
"The fact remains that Pokemon's not for my age group anymore."
That hit me in my age.
Also, lyrically amazing. How many attempts did it take?
New pokemon games may not be for my age group anymore, but that doesn't mean I can't destroy my fucking psyche with a Platinum Nuzlocke run.
It's not even that People have Outgrown Pokémon. It's that Pokémon is Actively Ostracizing Portions of it's Fanbase. Which isnwhat gets me the most.
Games can be all-ages and still appeal to every age.... just look at nearly every other game Nintendo released on the Switch. Mario Odyssey, Captain Toad, Donkey Kong, Kirby, Breath of the Wild, Luigi's Mansion 3, Smash Bros, Arms.
Also, if it's not for his age group anymore, then why all the pandering to the original nearly 25-year-old Kanto titles?
@@Cyber_Akuma Pokémon/GF are all over the place in that aspect. They Made Lets Go, a Game that's far more unworthy of its 60 Dollar price tag than SWSH, To pander to Casual GO fans & Genwunners. They Made the Games Easier to Appeal to Kids Because "Smartphones" which is BS. And then they promise this one's for "Long Time Fans" and not only further Ostracises Long-Time Fans, but makes the most destrcutive change in the history of Pokémon and Causes all hell to Break loose.
@@InfinityD4 While I do agree it's actually a challenge if you don't play it like Pokemon Go and catch 1 of each Pokemon, don't use candy, and only fight trainers. Doing that even wild Pokemon outleveled me, I enjoyed the challenge with just the right level curve.
You kinda suck Sword and Shield
GF: "isn't that kinda the point?"
SEYMOOOOOOOOOUR hi
besides being my favorite comment so far, holy frick, it's Seymour
AJhgdstaffdg
Fans: No. no it is not.
Oh hey p.m-WAIT WHAT
I can't expect them to remodel and reanimate almost a thousand pokemon. They even said they were cutting down the dex just so they could do that. Yeah, guess what happened with that.
_cries in reused models and animations_
Only for the rest of the models to be locked behind a paywall and no improvements at all to warrant a cent
LOOK AT THE AFFECTION “ animation”
your Pokémon kinda like bounce? I have NO IDEA. They don’t even LOOK at you. What is it game
Swsh:we will be cutting the dex so we can animate and model now.
Swsh actually meant: we will be not be porting older models cause we count be bothered to upscale sun and moon as well as Citra, and fuck your animations
Scott: "I mean, that's just my opinion!"
The internet: *OmG dId YoU jUsT aTtAcK mE pErSoNaLlY?!*
@@Ed-sd5ft I know right, imean why are they so tabu in the gaming community these days?
An opinion to the snowflakes and boomers is a personal terroristic threat on their life
@@zacharyperkins1795 I'd say threat of verbal harrassment so constant it may as well be cyberbullying
“This just looks like Pokemon Sun and Moon 3.”
Finally someone put it into words.
Yhea but Sun and Moon at least had the whole National Dex.
A 1000 times this
@@sharlockshacolmes9381 And sun/moon 2 at least had the necozma fight which was interesting.
And at least Sun and Moon were visually complete. SwSh are not and they're on the Switch ffs
I payed full price for both sun and moon and was disappointed again, I think that was when I was finally fed up. Skipped ultra sun and moon because I didn't want to buy it a third time. I had really REALLY hoped this would be the console pokemon game I've been waiting for... but it has even less features than the 3ds titles... sigh
Love him or hate him he's spitting straight facts
And by spitting you mean singing
Damn right
He's gonna but it and make a REALLY long salt video
Why saying only straight facts, though ... Gay facts have the right to exist!
@@Awelbeckk we dont care about gay stuff
Pokémon and GF: Don’t ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for next products
Sad how many youtubers actually supported this game
@@flamingrubys11 sad to see people having opinions and individuality. We should all stick to one side.
This song can still be used today with scarlet and violet
That’s an major understatement
Ehh, yes and no. Some thing can’t come back, like game corners.
Some points like chatot’s cry and the ball stickers were a one and done cause people can’t control themselves
Some things like underground difficulty is odd to argue because underground was rarely used and difficulty is something that had to be unlocked after you beaten the game… and get a code to unlock it in a fresh new save file.
I also find it weird how people complain about reusing animations when other things do the same. (It was probably cause of pr at the time making it seem like they were redoing everything.)
Honestly the major problem is that the games are rushed. We want them to take their time to actually make a solid game but it’s kinda hard to do so for many reasons that’s hard to solve.
End of the day, buy it if you want to, don’t if you won’t.
Just don’t harass or threaten people over your opinions
@@Kirby950Nobody was harassing people about their opinions here. We were stating the facts that since gen 5 the games have shown less and less improvement over the years. when a video game franchise moves from a handheld platform to a console there needs to be a significant improvement to warrant the transition. however, everything the Pokemon company has done so far sends the message that they are unwilling to change or improve.
“Well I heard SW/SH lets you skip catching tutorials!”
Too bad Gen 2 already did that
Doesn't let you skip the hour+ fodder of useless text from your "rival".
@@StrokeMyDiglett Neither does this one!
@@egg1899 that's what I'm saying.
@@StrokeMyDiglett Fuck I'm blind. Didn't notice the quotation marks lol.
@@egg1899 its all good john, my boy.
you forgot mythical pokemon having actual events instead of just purely for advertising a movie
Mythical Pokemon have rarely ever had in-game events, and the Legendaries started out sitting around in caves with no fanfair. The movies have always been where the Mythical plot was contained.
At least they shoehorn them into the story now, but I haven't seen a game actually make a Legendary integral to the plot (read: not a last minute Macguffin) since Ruby/Sapphire. Even the surprise reveal in Sun/Moon was more of a sidenote.
@@BonaparteBardithion They actually almost all did from gen 2 up until gen 5.
You also forgot mythical Pokémon in general
@@BonaparteBardithion Gen 5 would like a word with you on that
Malcolm Johnson
True, I missed Gen 5. But that's plot heavy all around.
In theory most of the plotlines since Ruby/Sapphire have the villian's actively looking for one of the Legendaries, but most of them don't involve them quite so heavily.
Sun/Moon sort of involved one, but he was pretty inconsequential in the end.
I stand by my point that the earliest games had them standing around I a dungeon, and Mythicals have no main story at all. Occasionally they're hinted at.
“If you don’t like it, don’t buy it ;)”
Scott: Hold my drink...
“If you want to play it then just go ahead and buy it!”
For once someone has created a comeback to that annoying “don’t like it don’t buy it” mentality I keep hearing tossed a lot
@Major Thought Ahead AH YES, lets not fund a company so that people lose their jobs because your not happy with how they took the pokemon franchise!
I'm sure there isnt a slippery slope there...
@Major Thought Ahead So your argument is in a game that doesnt have to make routes and towns and account for an infinite amount of other details and data storage, when all that team had to do was just take already existing designs and put them on a single game, that because they have more space for their animations due to literally not having to put anything else in the game, that means that if they had to make an entire pokemon game with fully detailed routes, music tracks, towns, gyms, story, events, and other mechanics, they would do just as well?
Your not considering literally anything but animation in a game for if its good. Because guess what, Battle Revolution didnt fucking come up with anything on its own.
Major Thought Ahead the thing is that they have done this for 20 years, they don’t have to change the fighting mechanics significantly because of the amount of Pokemon and how they’ve been balanced, making simple new animations would be great. Also they promised that there were going to be new models and animation in E3, never lie to your consumers
Nolan Wilcox No they specifically said new Models and animations, why would I lie about something that was pointed out by leakers that the models and animations are the same.
@@alicefrost3865 SSpoken like a true socialist. Thats an insult by the way
Anyone who can do a good parody of Modern Major General earns my upmost respect.
Also of course this is even more relevant with Scarlet and Violet
“I get plenty already”
*I can’t*
Remember when Game Freak created several walking animations for every pokemon? Yeah
Seriously, what were they planning after all that work?
remember when every fucking pokemon had a unique battle animation that was interesting, unique, charming in gen 5? Yeah that was for 649 Pokemon. They're working with hundreds less and they cant be bothered to make them look more interesting
Remeber that they added all of those unique walking animations to USUM but never bothered to enable it because they couldn't stop it lagging? They are still on the cartridge rotting same with all the 4k models that they are still using in SWSH casuse "games are hard to make" god GF's new blood shames the old blood so bad.
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
@@snintendog well Walking Pokemon returned so at least they are being used... Too bad the ai for it sucks
Scott compiling everything we've been saying in such a cohesive, level headed, and charming way has got to be the highlight of this entire debacle.
I can safely say that sword and shield are just a citra emulated 3ds game.
With all the graphical vomit that is sword and shield combined with the gimpy render distance you might be on to something.
honestly. i've seen ultra sun and moon emulated and upscaled, and the models all look sword and shield quality, except for all the pixelated textures. sad when you realize similar effort was put into 3ds and switch titles, sword and shield just has better textures.
@@Ed-sd5ft true
It's impressive how much he was able to talk about without even mentioning megas or z moves! There's way more cut then I thought
I think he missed Musicals and Pokestar Studios, too
@@aprinnyonbreak1290 I don't care about musicals. Pokestar studios AKA Pokewood on the other hand...
@@aprinnyonbreak1290 I really miss Pokestar Studios. That was the best minigame added in my opinion
@@aprinnyonbreak1290 Contests :(
I mean mega’s and z moves were basically the new gimmick for each generation I wish they’d keep them
Basically sword and shield with a side of salt really fast
Sword and Shield with a side of song
More like salt shaker, but yea.
Pokémon since Gen V
It's really weird people hype up gen 5 so much. Like the ai is a little bit smarter but it's mostly a grind fest so unless you're into the Ev and IV stuff it's just painful.
@@demonking-zm3rs Gen V had the best story and excellent characters, the Dream World made for a neat gimmick, and the sequels' World Tournament let you challenge all prior League Members. Gym Leaders, Elite 4, and Champions all taking part. It's debatable which generation is the best, but Gen V is my personal favorite.
Top 10 questions science cannot answer: "Are Scott's eyes open or closed in the outro?"
Yes.
Best of 2 worlds:
He can't see, but it will still hurt if some salt falls on them.
Open
Closed
CLOOPSENED
Why didn’t I watch this sooner? I love this.
Also now that I paused and see it’s encouraged that I can mention features that weren’t listed here. Sooooo...
Contests
And most importantly, GTS. Though to be fair, it *does* get rid of the “asking for level 1 legendaries” problem.
Same here! I really slept on this song
Could someone explain the lvl 1 Legends thingy to me? Seriously, I never understood it, especially since, to my knowledge, the only obtainable ones were the Creation Trio? (Maybe some others as well, but you get the drill, not every and in small quantity).
So what's the big idea? Don't they want to get their Pokémon traded or something?
Orange
It was mostly just people trolling by making impossible requests and flooding the system... and to be honest, it was annoying but I miss it 😅
Jared Gross yes. I just bought ultra moon and y, and this stupid snivy person is literally everywhere.
There are good deals on the gts, you just have to be the one making them.
-Megas
-Zmoves
-PokeAmie
-Exp Share(its baked into the game now)
-The 100+ moves removed from the game for no reason, some of which are very important to certain mons
-Literally the rest of the pokemon, many of which are in the games files still like the two Other Kanto starters
Wait they kept charizard but you can't mega evolve him? Lol
That age demographic line hit me hard
I dont think demographic is the problem- I picked up Pokemon Pearl a couple months back- and it's still a solid title
Do people seriously think that they don't make games with the part of their consumer-base that _actually has money, that played the first games as kids nearly 20 years ago_ in mind?
Hard disagree; kids don't deserve garbage, especially when all the past titles still stand up to scrutiny. Even XY.
Just because they're kids doesn't mean they dont deserve good games.
But Gamefreak said beforehand that this game is meant for veterans of the series!
*sings a song about every removed loved freature *
*forgets megas(and I guess z moves but who cares about that(and this is a joke to so if you like z moves I ain’t changing you))
I am that one person in the world who loves Z moves :D
Megas were far better. I really hope we get them back in a Sinnoh remake.
Dynamax is just bootleg version of it
megas and z moves were pretty good
M¡s¡mí
NOpe- I love them too, it gets every Pokémon to have a Z-move and there are the specials one too
I like z moves, but I understand the indifference
I was seriously hoping Pokestar Studios would be on here. "Oh it's just ten minutes of wasting time before Castelia" NO, it's a series of battle puzzles that has never really been done in any other game. And it's hella fun.
I liked pokestar more than any contest... I miss it
@@Xx_Oleander_xX same
Honestly pokestar studios wasn’t that bad, it’s just a small sidetrack before more stuff comes along and it’s actually pretty cute and atmospheric. I don’t really see why people complain about it so much
I don't like Pokéstar Studios, though I'm not saying it's bad. My only real problem is that it's mandatory to do it at least once before continuing the story, when I want to do something that rewards me for doing it. If you like it, all the power to you.

You do realize that Pokémon is not like Nintendo's other video game series right? Yes, under normal circumstances, Game Freak should have taken more time to polish the games more. Unfortunately in this timeline not everything is fucking perfect. The Pokémon games also have the Pokémon anime, TCG, and merchandise going for it, delaying the games would warrant the delay of the release of the new merchandise and TCG (which might I add makes up the MAJORITY of The Pokémon Company and Game Freak's budget) as well as the delay of the anime series. That is just asking for way too fucking much on both The Pokémon Company's and Game Freak's part. Heck, why am I treating The Pokémon Company like the victim alongside Game Freak? TPC is also largely responsible for pressuring Game Freak to release the games on time, if you want to blame anybody for unpolished games, first blame TPC then blame yourself for putting EVEN MORE pressure on Game Freak's part...
Oh what the heck am I doing, none of you buffoons will listen to me anyways, what is the use of trying to stay negative or positive anymore, I am buying the new Pokémon games and I am going to play and I am going to enjoy it, do you want to know why? BECAUSE IT IS A POKEMON GAME OF COURSE I AM GOING TO ENJOY IT POKEMON IS POKEMON AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE POKEMON. Ugh, the more and more I argue the more and more braincells I lose. Don't even bother arguing back at me, I don't have the nerve to reply anymore
@@logicaloverdrive8197 sega: releases 3D sonic game (examples: sonic boom and sonic 2006)
Sun and Moon 3? More like Pokemon Sun and Moon 1.5 + 2.5 HD Final Remix.
Hurr hurr
That would imply there's 2 games worth of content where there's only as much as X and Y with less than half the available pokemon in Sword and Shield.
HAHA haha... Haaaa.... ,_,
Honestly, at least the KH collections provided us with multiple games worth of content. It was even fairly high quality content. Obviously, if you already owned the series, then 1.5 + 2.5 was worthless to you, but I prolly would not have gotten into KH without that collection, so it made me happy.
@singularon1 Stop, stop, it's already dead!
It's never fun falling out of love with something that defined so much of your early life, but alas, here we are.
For me the major problem I have with Sword and Shield is not being able to turn the EXP share off.
I'm at Lv. 50 already and still have three gyms to go. I'm always at least 10 levels higher than everyone else in the game which makes battles stupidly easy.
one word I got: xp candies. They’re cool but you get them WAY to easily and it makes Training so lame.
I tried ignoring it but in the back of my head I thought “ whats the point of this when I could just give them theses candies”
Fans didnt want to press mega button to win anymore, so gamefreak made it where you dont even have to hit that button.
This also goes for Z moves. Dear game freak, DONT MAKE COMBAT GIMMICKS, YOURE GARBAGE AT BALANCING GAMES AS IT IS
I still say the MAIN issue is the balance in NPCs Trainers. Like give me the option to turn XP share off sure. More choices the better but there should be at least a difficulty option that's hard enough to make me wish I hadn't turned it off.
GameFreak takes the opposite approach to bugs.
Every other programmer: Neat Bugs can be turned into Features
GameFreak: Neat Features are Bugs and must be deleted.
technically with the dexcut game freak DID remove a lot of bugs
Mr.Fumpledump Neat bugs can be turned into features
More like, At least for mother 3.
This specific bug with a mister saturn that gives you the franklin badge is funny, Im gonna make that a joke and keep him there.
@@dubiouslittlecreature908 aw man
Well, they still have the bug that can brick your switch, so, uh, they at least have some bugs.
Game Freak in this comment is like: Neat features: exist Game Freak: Brother, get the flamer, the heavy, flamer.
They know the series is too big to fail and have lost ambition
Stonetown3487 Actually it’s starting to lose popularity. It’s still ginormous just not as big as what it used to be. (Probably is because they aren’t putting effort into the games though.)
I wish this was more popular.
I just relistened to this today, and Scott doesn’t give himself enough credit. This is an very well written chronicle and argument.
"Let me educate you on all the pokemon features that were removed"

@@jankleiss2485 or cut more pokemon for slightly better textures on the trees.
the gts, contests, and pokemon amie/refresh are probably what i miss most. if i actually had friends during the lifespan of xy, im positive id miss the pss as well. im super fond of little soft side things in games (like playing with your pokemon) which make you feel like you have more options and things to do and different ways of doing them. instead of being a soulless, robotic trainer set on becoming champion and growing stronger and nothing else, it can feel like your character has some more personality based on side activities like that.
i finished the swsh main game and post game in just under 24 hours while i was taking my time and going out of my way to do as many things outside of the main storyline as i could/was willing to. i enjoyed the game, but not as pokemon gen 8. hopefully gf has seen where they went wrong this time (nobody would want the whole national dex and gamefreaklied messes again) and will step it up for the next title.
wait do true rivals count as a feature because uh-
As someone who bought Pokemon sword I can say
You did good on skipping it
First: Damn, Scott, that was some fine-ass singing.
Second: I've realized that, personally, I've slowly begun to like Pokemon games less and less as they continue on simply because (sorry for this phrasing) I miss when they were simpler. All the cutscenes make me hesitant to replay anything past Bl2/Wh2, but even then I find myself going back to Gen 3 and before simply because of the many compact, but still satisfying playthroughs I can get from them.
Seeing the quote basically saying "there's just too much stuff competing for the consumer's time, so we just won't add back such and such feature because it's too hard and not rewarding" is horrifying to see from a company I thought so highly of.
Masahiro Sakurai utterly destroyed his hands (or maybe just the one, can't remember) working to make sure he did the best he could for a series he had just repeatedly been pushed back into making again and again even though he wanted to stop at Melee.
Ultimate, Odyssey, BOTW and LM3 all put Game freak to shame. Are there reasons for the terrible (comparative) quality of the game? Probably, almost absolutely. Are there *good* reasons for it? So far, no.
I feel like if the cutscenes were good it wouldn't be as bad, but most of them are not very good looking in my opinion, and the mouth flaps are extremely off putting
Yeah, I cant replay any 3-d pokemon games because of this. The 2-d ones were just better
And also Sakurai worked with an IV attached to him. He is dedicated to his work but at the cost of his health.
He needs a vacation after the big feats him and his team done.
Sakurai works his ass off to put in the effort Game Freak refuses to do and it's paid of immensely every single time. Smash bros is a top seller with nothing but a positive legacy with the most recent installment becoming the highest selling fighting game of all time, the previous record being held by another installment of it's own series. Pokemon has gradually deteriorated it's good will with consumers with the yearly releases all with the same problems, complacent higher ups calling the shots, and excusee that dont hold water.
I honestly thought this was gonna be the Pokérap but only with Pokémon in Sword and Shield.
It’s so much better than that.
Also, those lyrics were far better than I was expecting, hats off to you Mr Falco.
Same
that video does exist tho
Scott this is literally the best! Every new animation you've uploaded has been better and better. I love this one! (Also it hits super close to the heart for me. ugh.)
Anybody else back to give this more views after watching the 2019 Scott with salt?
As someone who bought Sword day one, and is currently in love with it despite it's MANY flaws...
This right here is a masterpiece that perfectly explains the series' recent yet rapid decline in quality.
Please accept this sentiment from a humble nobody on the internet, you amazing individual.
I’m kind of in a weird relationship with it honestly their are some really fun and expressive factors that show that “hey this is pretty next gen and more animated and fun looking” but then there are a couple nasty textures and terrible design choices that make the game looked rushed in some areas which is really sad in a way
Honestly I’d say right now it’s above x and y easily but it’s gonna be an upward battle to top sun and moon due to it having the full roster and shiz and hell gen 7 is my 3rd favourite gen, 2 and 5 even despite their limitations are likely never gonna get beat
I guess you could say it’s a love hate relationship
@@coffee-tz3lm Yes! 2 and 5 are the BEST! GameFreak really should've taken Zelda's BotW approach to making this game. If it wasn't complete, just delay it! That way, when you release the complete product, with ALL OF THE POKEMON, no one (or very few, not enough to matter, at least) would complain.
@@coffee-tz3lm But seriously, what limitations?
The only thing i like about this... bad game... is the customization, and the new Pokemon designs.
@@gunslingergirl2579 sadly pkmn isn't in the position to delay as it has the manga anime tcg and merch that depend on it releasing on time.
Wow, I never realized just how much pokemon has declined since gen 5
Gen 5 was best. Gen 6 started to be a bit... meh. We all know how Gen 7 flopped. And now Gen 8
to be fair with x and y, it made the leap into 3d animation and i was expected for the third version to expand and include a ton more. not for them to drop the ball to get yet anothet generation out there which really bugged me as they dropped the mega evolutions which were my favorite addition
@@lionclan4575 Yeah, XY deserve praise for the jump to 3d models and taking risks like adding megas or the fairy type.
I think that was the reason why the games weren't that great, coz they were trying new things.
I know we all have our own personal cutoffs, but I actually really enjoyed Gen 6. Got me into pokemon after a long long time. I found the Mega Evolution to be a really awesome mechanic, the jump to 3D was interesting enough, and the new pokemon were (largely) interesting and fun. Genuinely enjoyed myself.
Gen 7 was my cutoff. That game really urked me something fierce. I hated the linearity and railroading. I wasn't allowed to explore or be left alone for longer than 5 minutes of progression, just really bugged me. The pokemon were all fairly meh (I'm sure I could pick out a couple I didn't hate, but I was very unimpressed with the roster).
Watching my brother playing Gen 8, it doesn't look good, but it doesn't look... bad. I see some aspects I appreciate, but each one comes with its own catch.
gen 7 didn't drop mega evolution, it was just only available after the main story.
I never realized The Radio Demon liked Pokemon so much
The wild area is my fav though. Cmon. Think about a Snorlax running at you
Roy wild area and camping are pretty cool. also have you seen the gallade on that one island? that man becomes a damn olympic sprinter the second he sees you
**rolling*
Game Freak cut Mario from SwSh how disappointing
*Yoshi
WHAAAAAAAT ? I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY DID THIS TO MY FAVORITE POKEMON ! 0/10 NEVER BUY ALSO TOO MUCH WATERS ! (I'm actually mad about staraptor not being in.)
@@famaki8072 Not yoshi! I had it since gen 1!
*They hated him because he told them the truth*
They hated him because they want to keep their indeividuality and not be treated like opinionated slaves. Seriously, opinion trashing is the internet equivelent of racism.
Yeah this basically sumarizes my entire thought process with Sw/Sh, I'm actually glad someone else thinks the same way without being an asshole about it
I just like catching ‘em all. What’s the point if I don’t have ‘em all?!
My thoughts exactly. The slogan is "Gotta Catch 'Em All" not "Gotta Catch the Ones They Put in This Version" ffs
"Gotta catch 'Em Pikachu and Charizard"
Sadly many see it as "too hard" and seemingly glad it's gone for some reason...even though the limited Regional Dexes makes it so players have the choice for a smaller completion target.
Finally a bigger creator that isn't shilling out for this game
Even though I'm playing the game anyways, I still found all the points you brought up to be true and hilarious to listen lol
Me: Huh SwSh isn’t as bad as I th-
Nostalgia: contest hall
Me: BURN! BURN THE WEAPON WOLVES!
Caprisun From Space I will join you in this battle
Ball capsules tho
I love that both the final Pokemon music for gym leaders and technically gym battle rematches are back.
Samuel Thomas Rawman is perhaps the greatest name for any character ever
Scott, you're a blessing and don't let anyone tell you otherwise
My favorite video of your so far. Good job!
Amazing video that encapsulates all my issues with Pokemon as a long time, thanks man!
"You criticized this one thing that I shill for therefore you must hate everything that's good." Unironically an argument that has been made towards me before, thanks for pointing that out Scott, great video, earned a like from me 👍
If there's always one thing I can appreciate about Scott it's that he's always honest. The man speaks his mind and he's not afraid to admit when things aren't perfect or that he doesn't like something. He's creative, genuine, and I honestly look up to him a lot.
Keep up the good work Scott. You inspire a small creator like me everyday.
Edit: Also S.T. RAWMAN
Edit 2: Okay so this has more likes than I expected. Including Scott. My life is complete. Thanks guys and thanks Scott!
you know what's cool? being able to go to a whole other region from a previous game!
I recently got sword, and I did enjoy it. But I was missing megas, good online modes, and most of the other stuff you mentioned. It was a good game, but there was alot to be desired. But I liked the video.
It's phenomenal how you made this bop and the lyrics so true.
This is to the tune of "A Modern Major General" By Adrian D. Holmes and featured in the Musical the Pirates of Penzance. He didn't make the tune, but he did make the lyrics and they are true.
When you zoom soo hard you boom on retro culture.
@@Yet_AGOTI-2 I see, I didn't know the tune at all. That's probably since I do not listen to classical music at all, but fun to know I guess haha
I miss Pokemon XD and Colosseum, those were my favorites
Same. As excited as I was to see mainline Pokemon coming to the Switch, I was extremely disappointed to see no plans of doing anything with Shadow Pokemon again.
@@animeartist888 if only they had shadow lugia again, he was my strongest since I was never able to purify him RIP XD
Actually I think SwSh has final Pokémon music where the crowd joins in on the music cheering you on. Either that or I just had very coincidental timing. Ngl I want that version of the song played at my funeral
I read the countless ancient works of grumpy dudes who thought too much
"Eh go ahead. I get plenty already"
I wonder if people still complain for more Overwatch: Side of Salt...
You absolutely know they do
The game has been dead for years
I mean, I'd love to see it, but fuck actually harassing him about it. Scott can do whatever he wants, and I'll watch it for him.
This perfectly sums up my feelings towards this generation. I'm just not excited for these games. They're underwhelming, and it makes me sad to think about what could but will never be for this franchise.
No idea if Scott will read this but, honestly Ioved the song and hope you continue doing your best
2:15 yes 👏🏼
Unfortunately the only big company ever to listen to their fans is the people making the sonic movie
What an age we live in, sonic movie listens to feedback while a nintendo partner goes full fallout 76
@@palharaldrindal4871 Uh-oh. What was the deal with Fallout 76?
@@gunslingergirl2579 rushed shatshow and it gained more and more issues as the company started focusing on getting more payers less players
@@palharaldrindal4871 The comparisons I draw from 76 and SWSH is that both are new installents in beloved game series that remove something fundamental about them (Pokemon removing some of the Pokemon, 76 removing the interactions with the world in favour of MMO interactions) and suddenly their respective fanbases can now notice all the flaws in the games that were previously not an issue because the main attraction is no longer there to make up for the shortcomings.
@@jazyzamp3056 updates!? If they wanted to update then update the game via online update.
They will charge full price for a finished game
"I... It's not *that* bad, I enjoy it!"
I say trying to hide my T-Posing Wingull
Okay but why would you want to hide something as glorious as a T-Posing Wingull
@@BagggyKat Because sometimes T-posing Wingull offends some uncultured swines
"Its a bad game, dont buy it"
I say, as i spend around 2-4 hours customizing my character to look like DIO
Thinking that people who enjoy things you don’t must be lying about enjoying them is naive and stupid
@@unseenasymptote4976 ok buddy i think you need to chill a little bit out and understand that we are joking
There is ONE thing GF brought back in Sword and Shield...
The song's tone will subtly change depending on if you defeat a gym leader's pokemon or if the gym leader defeats one of yours. It can also change into a slightly different song if the gym leader is sending their last pokemon.
These latest pokemon games presume that they have skipping tutorials and optimizations that other games started including TEN YEARS AGO. At least they have some cool gym leader designs... and music i guess.
Wow that was so accurate I almost cried

Pokemon swsh dlc: hello there
Danke Falco for putting my entire struggle inner monologue not only into words, but then setting the words to music.
Imagine if they did this to other games like sorry guys we have to get rid of ever Mario character except the goomba it’s just waayyyyy tooooo hard to animate them all
you act like that's not what happened in paper mario in recent titles
@@Flightning99 at least it was an active creative decision and not an excuse to not put in the effort.
EDIT: Ya got me Halvos. After a few minutes of thought, yeah, the two do align pretty well given the circumstances. Creative decisions should only be given a pass if it creates a better experience.
Nice profile pic, Didn’t expect to see another Underhero fan in the wild!
@@anothergamer112 You act like creative decision isn't just an excuse
They already did that with Paper Mario and the series has gone into a nose dive. People making the excuse that this is not Nintendo ignore the other examples.
3:36- I really appreciate this detail right here. With so many telling people not to buy the game and shaming anyone who dares show interest, it’s nice to see someone take the more mature approach to this whole thing. (I’m sure he’s not the first anti SwSh person to do so, but it’s still pretty rare)
Indeed, glad he can be a bigger man and accept that some people will like it. It looks bad to me but I don't care if others like it.
"Shaming anyone who shares interest" is basically on every swiss bashers daily to do list. It's sad really.
Sadly stream forced him to consume product
He also felt ripped off and he didnt even buy the damn thing
Finally, a song that expresses how i feel about new pokemon games
This is a really clever way to criticize pokemon without sounding the same as everyone else. This is fun, hope you make more of these things!
I'll be waiting on Sword and Shield as there is a bug that can wipe all your save data, from all the games on that save device.
I'll wait for that to get patched
Wait really?..... so after watching a video about it i THINK that it only happens in the digital ver
Bryce McKenzie I think it’s just for hacked consoles
Modded SD cards, actually
If you have the sd card also formated for phone or camera use (like mine) it also wipes it
@@louismccormick3263 actually it's quite the opposite
Pirate version are more sure
The case came from official digital copies of the games but got also reported to physical copies too
If you got the game turning autosave helps but other case were found that manual saving still cause problem due to the exFAT bugging who littéraly one shot your card SD
Do not play your game if you got a multi-player game like splatoon as the cloud save will not give your items back
This bug was present for some games like smash or fire emblem got Pokémon litterally beat a record (due to gamefreak bad programming I guess)
You are a very wise man. Saying you’re disappointed but not saying everyone has to be. Well done.
wtf i love ScottFalco now
