Half my brain: Wow that was a really well made analysis of Loss in Gen 5 that brings in so many cool and sad elements. This channel is so underrated.
Other half of brain: his name is not Genesis, it's Ghetsis Ghetsis his name Ghetsis my boi Ghetsis his Ghet-Ghetsis my man Ghetsis, they say it in his theme i swear to Arceus
i don't know how but i didn't realize his name was ghetsis till now lol.
@@ArzyProtoDid you just like... Not read his name or something until now?
To be honest i didn’t even notice he was saying it wrong but hard to do that when the guy has his own theme saying his name out loud which is very rare for a pokemon song to have words in it lol
@@ArzyProto hopefully ppl dont give you a hard time for not knowing (i mean, this is youtube but hopefully). i like the genesis bit bc i can interpret it as a bit lol
Ikr it annoyed me for no reason. like everything else was great so idk why i couldn't just move past it but i kept on feeling weird when he said genesis lol. oh i thought he was gonna mention genesis more nvm it wasnt that bad, after the first time
Skipping right to Gen 6 for the next Legends game is the most Gen V thing possible.
Not sure how they would remake gen 5 when it has two games obviously they will choose the base worse ones like always but gen 6 always was missing a better version in z so that was the right choice
@@MJ-oi6ulworse? Story and climax are much better in BW, if they add some Pokémon from the older gens and all the extra stuff from B2W2 it would be perfect
Gen 5 got sequels at least, gen 6 literally got nothing cut them some slack
Gen 5 doesn’t need to be remade. It’s already perfect. Story, difficulty curve, aesthetic, region design, it’s all perfect.
The starters suck
@@ocsjc13 The pokemon designs of Gen V generally leave a lot to be desired. They'd be literally perfect if they had better pokemon designs.
Theory. Hilbert/hilda entered said faraway region without their passport and got send to jail.
You’ve got my subscription. I don’t know how this video got suggested to me but it was actually amazing. Gen 5 has been my favorite for awhile and it’s awesome getting to relive it while examining it through a new lense. Keep up the great work 🙏
The Gen 5 games are my favourite by far. There’s so much dark stuff in this game and so much still unsolved, plus the whole story and lore of unova is great. This was a great video, you did a very good job explaining the story!
Why Gen 5 is loved.
The starters aren’t all Humanoids like gens 3 & 6-9 starters we got a SNAKE 🐍 with Arms, a Seal lion 🦭 on ALL fours covered in armor and razor shell blades, and a sick MONSTROUS BATTLE BOAR with a FLAMING NECK 🐗
The Pokémon roster is GOOD imo idgaf majority of the Unova mons ARE made to look like Bosses and that’s why I love em. A Patrat looks the most menacing regional rodent in the series yet.
The music specifically BW2 are the BEST in the series. Aspertia City? Route 19? Route 1? Different Gym themes? BW1&2 rival battles? Surf theme?
The STORY? BW1 is fckn packed with the most story in the main series, and a mature one at that.
The CHARACTERS? Alder, The rivals, THE GYM LEADERS, N??
I also just love how the BW1 story treats us as the reawakening heros reborn, thus there’s a entire “holder of the light/dark stone proceed with precision” type of quotes throughout the game.
Gen 5 best gen for a reason 🙄🥱
I think that loss is a very well established topic in these games.
Other two types of loss in the games are the loss of hope and happiness, as some NPCs show while talking to you and the loss of Nature, as many natural and unexplored areas in the base game do host human structures in the sequels.
Great video! Only thing that kept bothering me was the “Genesis” thing 😂 but I’ve seen in the comments that you didn’t know his name until after the vid. I love that Gen 5 (my favourite generation of Pokémon) can spawn videos like this years later cuz it goes to show how much love and effort was put into them. I’ve loved them since day 1 and I totally think the theme of loss in these games is a subplot after watching this!
Side note: at the beginning & end you mentioned Nintendo posting about the Pokémon stuff but I’m gonna put this as a reminder cuz I often see people get confused, The Pokémon company, while it’s owned 33% in part by Nintendo, they’re a different company that have their own developers, so asking for “Nintendo to release Gen 5 remakes” isn’t exactly correct cuz Nintendo doesn’t make Pokémon games.
Sorry for the rant but I gotta spread the info whenever I see people getting confused
I thought I was the only one who felt the change in tone, especially in character stories. Amazing video on an amazing topic. Glad it somehow got suggested to me
If we had a Legends Unova game I would expect for Hilbert/Hilda to be a Faller there like how Ingo is in Hisui.
The reason why they never returned it because they travelled in time, maybe a Hidden Grotto had Tera energy.
I'd love to see a video like this, but with Gen 9. Arguably a darker game imo.
i havent had a chance to play through scarlet and violet but once i do ill make a video
Tbh I think XY, Gen 7 (especially USUM, whose backstory on Necrozma is significantly more tragic than even Kyurem's), and SV are darker than Gen 5.
good video can’t wait for more
You got my sub if there's gonna be more vids like this, this is genuinely amazing content.
550th subscriber u deserve it bro
This just made me realize this game is a reaction to pkmn black and blue.
Don't tell him about Pokemon Colosseum
great video man hope you make some more Pokémon content!!
It would be funny if hilda/Hilbert were the protagonist of a gen 5 Pokémon legends
Why do you keep calling ghetsis "genesis"
He didn't know it was ghetsis, but he knows now tho lol, honest mistake
He didn't know it was ghetsis, but he knows now tho lol, honest mistake
Good vid! Keep up the good work!
bro this is what i was wondering. I was like why the heck cant i meet my boi hilbert. kinda sad the only recurring character is red. like i get it, he was the first, but the plot in gen 5 was just so good
Not the begging squidward lol
I think you’ll be the next big creator 😅
Fr tho pretty great video, it can be hard to find pokemon content that is more than surface level discussion
i appreciate it! i like to cover a variety of topics but looking at these comments ill be making more Pokemon stuff in the future!
Agreed agreed
I love these games ngl, weirdly enough i didnt like bw1 at first cuz you could only fight the champion post game 😂😂😂 but now i treasure these 2 games for their great stories (for pokemon standards at least) and most of all, the gameplay cuz omg they heavily fixed the slow and lethargic gameplay of gen 4 and made it a lot faster. Also i really like the animated sprites theyre great (most of them). But yeah, overall, great games, highly recommend people try them out (especially bw2)
Enough of the Charizard Slander 😑
No, we need more Charizard slander 😂😂😂
@@HDGamerofficial Charizard is one of my goats! I ain’t letting that slide
I know y’all shat on the ice cream and garbage pokemon. You won’t fool me with your “newfound respect”. I always knew these games were goated, and I know it was the worst selling gen because of you. I will always hold this grudge because the backlash on this game is the reason we got 3 shit gens with 0 interesting characters after it. Scarlet and violet is getting the black and white treatment because it’s buggy, which is a valid complaint, but the story is good. The characters aren’t just soulless battle opponents that you forget their story seconds after you put the game down, which is a valid complaint, but even with the bugs the game is leagues better than the previous 3 generations and with the legends arceus game we were allowed to have grittier characters and themes. It’s important to see the good in these games or else Pokémon will go back to the “only make games for children 12 and under” motto they stuck with for gens 6-8.
I feel like SM/USUM were good too, just nowhere near as good as SV.
@@TheRealMaruki to shorten this comment significantly, I’m going to say 6 and a half hours of unskippable cutscenes. That’s my feelings on the game. I beat it bc I remember electric tapu scene but that’s one of 4 scenes I remember
@@spice2nice664 Ok fair, but it's still good
@@TheRealMaruki I’ve had this exact argument before and respectfully I disagree because I don’t enjoy the no gyms and long cutscenes.
@@spice2nice664 I see your point. The games had a nice twist on the gyms, but of course, not everyone appreciates it. I think the characters and battles are probably the best parts.
can't get pass the first 13 seconds sorry
I can't believe you have so few followers right now! I'm honored to be one of the first hundred! I'm going to stream pokemon and upload videos on TH-cam similar to this, and the gen 5 love is great!
