This. To this day, I have a moment of hesitation whenever I'm thinking about what moves to use against Lugia. Its like my brain is buffering, going 'psychic/flying? That can't be right'
gamefreak didn’t creat Lugia. Lugia was the only Pokémon in the johto region that wasn’t created by gamefreak. Lugia was intended to be water and flying but gamefreak didn’t allow that since, at the time, physic type was seen as powerful types. That’s why they used psychic and flying. And the Creator of Lugia wanted Lugia to be female. And was devastated when the movie came out, and it was a male voice. Look it up it’s quite interesting
people thought ash losing in the kalos pokemon league was bad bruh i thought the sinnoh one was worse because the writers literally realized how good ash was so they had to make a trainer have full on legendaries to make him lose...
I didn't mind that at all. In fact I loved that fight! It was nice to see someone who was semi-competent by our world's standards and show Ash the potential of a Pokemon trainer. I want to see Tobias again when Ash is more experienced and directly fighting for the position of Pokemon Master.
@@fune9281 Yuh, I thought it was actually super cool seeing someone who was even more experienced than Ash to show how much harder he'll have to work towards Pokémon Master :D
In game freak's eyes Azure flute, an item that describes the place its meant to be used at: *Too Complicated* The Regi ruins, in which you have to learn braille: *Normal*

Apparently the writers planned for Ash to win but the network wouldn't know how to market gen 7 if he won so they changed the ending. ...which makes no sense considering how sun and moon turned out. It would make a lot of sense that ash would have a more relaxing time after winning a league. Also you look at the gen 8 anime and see that no one recognises him as alola champion, so winning the league really made no difference lol
@@largenaq2935 what I'm really liking is that they are clearly treating him as Leon's equal in the latest episodes, which is great and they also kinda teased us when Leon said "it's what any Champion would do" but it's like they're afraid to mention that, yeah, Ash is actually a Champion too you guys. Defeated Gods and what else.
It really feels more like *Look. Charizard won!* But sun & moon were great. I just don't like how the league was handled and the necrozma episodes. But the match against kukui who teamed up with tapu koko really improved the league win. It makes Gladion's match look like peas.
@@weebsquit347 yeah I mean, Tapu Koko is a LITERAL God. The fact Ash beat him is insane, even more so considering Silvally was also a Legendary, and Ash beat it as well, and even then Tapu Koko made it look like Yamcha compared to him.
@@weebsquit347 I don't count sun and moon because it was a island challenge the same as orange island other than the ultra beast. Pokemon did the same as kanto when they had writers block. Now if they combine the orange island with aloha and made drake the pokemon league champion I would have accepted that. But with aloha they sold half a region with more legendary and ultra beasts to cover up for the island challenge. I mean really ash could have beat the island challenge with the same team he beat the orange island with.
i said it many times and i'll say it again game freak: "this flute seems too complicated for kids" also game freak: "yo let's make these kids learn braille"

He was always goofy So your comments meaning is that when ash relied on plot armour he lost And when Ash was in his best form he won Sound pretty obvious to me
Ash winning made sense like his t4am turned from weakest to strongest like a mythical ( a good one) nagandel lycanroc incineroar and ash learned that from kalos being hurry cant make you win and he deserved a win
@@mandstv0709 a win that took him 7 generations to get, honestly, the fact that the Anime had to have a guy named Tobias come out of nowhere to beat Ash in Gen 4 with a Latios and a fucking Darkrei should tell you that he deserved a win back then.

Zygarde is probably the worst treated legendary ever.

The "needs to be traded in order to evolve" thing always bugged me as a kid. It still bugs me as an adult, but at least getting more than one version became easier as I got older. As a kid, unless you had a sibling who also loved Pokemon, or some really generous parents, you had to rely on a friend also having the game. Also totally with you on Ashs league losses. Johto and Hoenn are the only ones that don't leave a bad taste in my mouth. With those, Ash just lost to a standard trainer who was better. Sure introducing a pokemon from another region days before the battle could be considered a bullshit move, but Ash battled well against it, and the battle kept the pokemon from competing in it's trainers next match.
@Rahul Adhi I said it "could be" considered a bullshit move. I.E, some others may think that the writers going this route is a bullshit move. I personally don't think it is. That's why I made it clear that Johto was one of the league loses by Ashs that doesn't leave a bad taste in my mouth. Hoenn being the other one.
I hate trade evolutions to this day. Sword and shield took it a step further and made some outlandish requirements that you literally have to look up as there is no indication or hint in the game like a puzzle on how to evolve.
@@majoravideos4393 NPC in-game has a Haunter. NPC wants to trade her Haunter away to you. Haunter evolves by trade into Gengar. You expect to have a Gengar. You get a Haunter holding an Everstone instead.
Same. However, I think the lock for the Gen 8 starters is understandable. Instead of letting you watch 5 Minutes of cutscene, they just said "Don't do it, that's way to tedious. You can get them later, but don't do THIS to yourself"
I’m not even a shiny hunter and I completely agree. They have no good reason to shiny lock certain Pokémon, shiny locks should never even if been created.
I actually don’t like Shinies that much, it feels like even if I have ONE it’s basically me saying “I’m better than you because I spent 53.8 days obtaining a yellow Scorbunny” But if we’re talking about Mienfoo, that’s a different story because blue is a cool color
@@spectralquill1810 I mean he also held Larvitar, who weighs 70+ kilograms (almost 160 pounds) as if it were a baby. Sure, not Cosmoem levels of weight, but still a near impossible feat.
What I found sad about Flygon not having a mega was that EVERY Dragon type Pokemon introduced in Gen 3 (Salamence, Altaria, Latios, Latias, and Rayquaza) got a mega evolution except Flygon.
Lillie's retcon in USUM was absolutely disgusting. SM had her leave to become a trainer and USUM had the opportunity to follow up on that, maybe have Nebby on her team instead of being given to you and have Lillie comment at first that Nebby wouldn't obey her in battle, but later on she challenges you as a champion and Nebby is on her team, showing that she grew so much that a high level Solgaleo/Lunala chooses to follow her as a trainer. But no, they cut the whole trainer thing and Lillie just helps with a few RR goons.
The saddest part from the Unova League is that Cameron would've never been in the tournament if Ash didnt show him where the registration was. (My first Pokemon game was Black 2, I know this)
Typhlosion and Arcehops: Yo, our Gen 5 sprites are some of the best, I bet they will become cooler in the next gen- GameFreak: Hello? I can't hear you properly.
The violent flapping is the result of the sky battles in Kalos. Archeops isn't supposed to be able to fly for long periods of times in the first place, but why put any effort in redoing a Sprite when you can just copy, paste and render an old model?
For those who don't know, the reason you need to go somewhere specific to forget HMs is so that you don't softlock yourself on an island without Surf or something. In fact, if you try to release your last Pokemon that knows an HM move, it'll come back to you with the message, "______ came swimming back! Was it worried about you?" Which is actually really wholesome.
Id be somewhat inclined to accept that except it still doesnt really make much sense. The pokemon has to be in your party anyways to change its moveset, so you could just pop the hm back on it if you get yourself stranded. Only reason I can really see is that its to keep you from forgetting it *while* youre surfing, but thats no reason to make cut and strength also a pain in the ass to forget
@@dubiousdeliquite6641 You can very easily strand yourself places by forgetting moves and not carrying the HM with you. If you need Strength or Cut to get in and out of some place, it makes sense that they couldn't forget it on the spot. This feature was added in Gen III, where it was still possible to store your HMs in the PC, so you could be stuck in the field if you forgot something at the wrong time. Keeping the feature around is a good failsafe in case of unexpected glitches, too.
51: Giving mega evolutions to pokemon that were already good (Lucario, Metagross, Salamence, Garchomp, Gengar, etc) instead of bad pokemon that could deserve more.
That’s because nobody knows where Cubone came from, so it was probably popped out by a mother somewhere else and that mom died and then the player’s pokemon picked up that egg and decided, “This is mine now.”
5:49 I feel everyone fails to understand that some pokémon are measured differently. Furret is measured from head to tail whilst Charizard is measured from head to toe (standing up). I’m pretty sure if Charizard was measured from head to tail it’d be at least 8’0”.
How was wailords weight one of the worst decisions? It's ingenious! It's the "Float whale" pokemon, because it's density is actually lower than air, so it floats in the air! It's one of my favorite tidbits of the gen3 dex
Only problem with that is that it wouldn't really be a water pokemon at that point..it's so light it'd probably just be high in the sky instead 24/7! Plus it's never really shown to fly in anything, so I think they made it's weight way too low. Low enough that it can float up in water is ok but so light it should fly away like a balloon?? That's kind of weird especially as it's never shown to be the case.
Game Freak: sorry flygon but our artists have no brain to draw a cool mega maybe future Flygon: ok *years later* Game Freak: ok we give up your never gotta get anything Flygon: *uses earthquake*

@@maxonator3913 exactly, But anything with 3x speed hurts my head. The only games i adjusted the speed was diamond, pearl, platinum, soulsilver and heartgold coz ngl those were really slow
I know it's just me, but when I was a kid (and not speed running) I loved the slow nature of losing HP. It added alot of suspense for me and when a Pokemon would clutch it on 1HP it felt so special.
Pokemon idea : the diamond and pearl remakes should have us punish that mindy trainer for trading us that haunter with an everstone we can all agree that she deserves for what she did to us in our childhoods
They need to fix trade evolutions but letting us trade with npc who have trade evolutions like hunter, kadabra, those 2 gen 5 ones, and whatever others there are

Funny that Dragon was apparently supposed to be rare back then but that makes it a pain in the butt to handle type specialists, oversights were made...
Also a ghost specialist like Agatha. To an extent also Lorelei and how few ice types there were. In Johto they did the same mistake with Morty. What is more, in Johto most gym leaders do not use Johto pokemon at all (Falkner could have used a hoothoot or even natu, Bugsy could have used ledyba or/and spinarak instead of frigging metapod and kakuna, Morty does not use a misdreavus and Chuck does not use a hitmontop).

I disagree on the Hyper Potion nerf. Before nerfing it, Max Potions were useless during the main story unless you had a Pokemon with gargantuan base HP. Pokemon rarely reach 200 or much higher than 200 by the Elite Four. Money comes easy in most Pokemon games, especially later gens which is when the nerf happened, so I don't think it's a big deal.
Yeah. People will often being dismissive about that. I used that to heal my Pokémon when I’m not in anywhere near the Pokémon Center. I heal them with berries I got left in the bag.
Nick den Toom that is a legitimate complaint, it took like 30 seconds to reach him, it should just show the start of the animation then skip to the end
Huh. And I thought the introduction of the VS Seeker was annoying. Like, it went from the PokéNav's "check for any trainers anywhere who want to battle" to the Poketch's "check to see if maybe some of the trainers onscreen want to battle, and if you don't, you'll have to run in circles madly until you can try again, and if one trainer just happened to walk out of frame, too bad, you'll have to recharge then press again to see if they're ready to battle, and pray that you're not wasting all those steps this time, good luck." I honestly suspect the VS Seeker almost singlehandedly ruined my Sinnoh experience by making grinding such a grind.
I never liked the Vs. Seeker. The Gen 3 Hoenn games' vs seeker was horseshit, it's incredibly difficult to go through the trainers cos it was organised so badly. Gen 4's took too long to work and only let you battle 1 or 2 specific trainers each time. ORAS did it the best but it was still only ok. I much preferred gen 5's use of audino in shaking grass. It was a very consistent training method that worked throughout the whole game, letting you grind easily at your own pace.
return was definitely way too powerful. you stick that on a normal type with decent attack, you can sweep literally anything except ghost types. even those resistant to it would still get heavy damage.
@@minotostar i did a stoutland challenge (pokemon black), and, i just stuck a shadowball on it to deal with ghost and psychic types. crunch would have worked, but cursed body is awful so i never chanced it.
@@minotostar didnt have room for it. i had return, aerial ace, rock smash and shadowball. why would i replace one of those with a useless status move that is unnecessary thanks to shadowball?
I think the anime struggles in such situations, because they have two options: 1. Game-Logic. Pokemon not even flinching when getting hit by attacks they are immune to. 2. Real-Logic. Pokemon daking damage or at least flinching, since they are still physically hit with something. Yes, it wouldn't make sense, if a Pokemon, which is immune to electric, get's K.O.ed by a lightningbolt (looking at you, first Movie -.-). However, if a 120 lbs snake uses it's full strength and smacks that Metagrosses forehead with it's tail (from which I don't know how hard it is), it would also make no sense if the Metagross didn't flinch at least a little bit. (I'm not saying you are wrong with anything, just wanted to defend something, that can be excused (to some extend))
I mean, you can get rid of Toxic Spikes by using Dig and Flare Blitz underground. You can have Thunder Armor (Swellow would have fainted in the games) Hawlucha getting hit by Bone Rush Mega Lucario. Game logic simply doesn't translate well in the anime, because then you get either a really boring anime, or you need to exclude some moves from the anime.
Pokemon logic: Mom: Ima send my 10 year old kid out to travel the world and fight monsters and adults Adults: Oh a kid with a pokemon! I'ma fight him and beat him Adult: *loses* Adult: I was sure i could've beaten you but i guess I'm not strong enough, but can i have your number 10 year old kid: *gives number to random adult he beat in battle* Gamefreak: yea that's cool
Great list! One thing that really bothers me is how you can't choose which pokemon to send out at the beginning of a battle like they do in the show. Instead you always send out who's first in your party.
I don't think they forgot; I just think they were being contemptuous then. Just look at the light mega evolving is put in in Gen 7's lore. I think the real dumb decision was to introduce a shiny new mechanic, get everyone hyped on it, then tell everyone one generation later, "You know that one cool thing you were all excited about and enjoying? Yeah, it's cruel and inhumane, and you should be ashamed for liking this thing we got you hyped about." And THEN discontinue it entirely and replace this mechanic which actually helped some power creep victims catch up with one which was basically game-breaking in all tiers but uber, which had too strong a metagame for some of the giga forms to catch up even there, making it pointless.
@@jaschabull2365 i think that was a missed opportunity to expand on the lore that alola and kalos had a war that resulted in alola giving mega evolution that was discovered in kalos a bad rep because in gen 6 mega evolution was built up to be the ultimate bond of the trainer and the pokemon whilst in gen 7 it was treated to just a power up that hurt pokemon
Pokemon Anime intro episode 1: "I wanna be the very best, like on one ever was!" Pokemon Anime end of season: "I failed in the most humiliating way possible." Clearly the writers were preparing us for real life.

Erika giving the Rainbow Badge for saving the Gym from Team Rocket, Team Rocket cheating by high-jacking the Gym, and then not giving him the Earth Badge, etc. So yeah!

@@dubiousdeliquite6641 yeah i am aware actually.

If damage rarely carries over between battles then why was pikachu exhausted even though it hardly did anything that episode? it was pigiotto that dragged them to the stadium. It rarely carries over because they have time to rest between them sometime they even have to stay in the center overnight to recover . Saying damage doesnt carry over is one of the the one of the dumbest things I've heard. But even After all of that it does not excuse the referee making stupid calls the whole time. I'm not saying ash should have won that battle, but it was not even close to the "greatest battle ever" they promised each other. It all could have been completely different if ash had just explained what happened to him so the league could compensate but Letting him swap some mons or rescheduling but no he decided it was a good idea to battle anyway because .....ash. yeah it's still ash fault for losing but not entirely. Pokemon training in the anime is completely different than in games and needs to just stop being compared to them already
here's my list of mistakes: - giving pokemon who didn't need a mega, a mega - constant gen 1 pandering - gen 4's bullshit love affair with HM's - how slow DPP is - gen 6's pathetic difficulty - how bad certain shiny's and pokemon look with their 3D model - the god awful shiny's - Nidoqueen not being able to breed - Ash losing to a Snivy that was lvl 5......FIVE!!! - pandering towards Charizard (seriously....stop it already) - the current EXP Share - height and weight on pokemon making 0 sense - the entire gen 5 anime - Crabominable - Jynx - Not giving Dunsparce an evolution - Nidoqueen's shiny not being pink

@@NeonWafflez707 Yeah that would be sick to have that in the eventual remakes. The only problem is the typing. It would logically need to have fire, electric and dragon as its type. Unless if they just make it pure dragon which would be fine but not as interesting.
@@footlessmoonbadger7189 was actually just thinking about this. Technically, you could make a case that it is any combination or Fire, Electric, Ice, and Dragon.

The typing is confusing, and I doubt they would do a triple type Pokémon (the typing problem may be able to be dealt with using a new ability?) but this is probably why they haven’t chosen to do anything with it, since it’s difficult to settle on what the typing would be.
Game Freak should ad an ability to Typhlosion, that if its HP is in yellow, he has a sort of Battle Bond that there comes fire out of his body and his attack and special attack raises.
If they do that, they have to give the other johto starters an ability to Let me help Meganium signature ability : absorb Absorb : if the pokemon is poisoned or is attacked by a health draining move, it gets healed and attack stat increases

Eh, I can think of a few. Finally letting you use a Leaf Stone/Ice Stone on Eevee for Leafeon/Glaceon or being able to evolve a Level 100 Pokémon by giving it a Rare Candy, some changes to how abilities work like Rattled activating upon being hit with Intimidate, adding cool evolutions to crappy Pokémon like Golbat or Yanma, the physical-special split, reusable TMs, etc.
Reusable TMs, mega evolution (which yes I know they took away but it was a fun ride), GTS (despite the stupid pokemon trade requests but that’s at the owner’s decision not the game’s), wireless PVP battles, ability to camp and cook curry, better typing (on some pokemon).
I actually liked the tournament in Sword and Sheild, it would've been cooler if it was original and unique trainers, but the idea of "it's a tournament" made it feel more real
Yeah I like how galar makes the gym challenge feel like an event since literally there are crowds in all of these fights where as in the old games you just walked into a gym and it was just you and the leader. If they just used new characters it would've been better
Most gen 2 playthrough teams are: Johto Starter + 5 Kanto mons There were only 100 new pokemon to begin with, and obtaining some of them so late was really ridiculous. That's why I only play randomizer when I replay a Gen 2 game.
Honestly, for number 1, I actually really like that decision. I think it made them feel more like they focused on the Moves being their respective types while allowing their teams to be more balanced. Personally, I'd rather have a gym leader that actually seems like a competent trainer with a balanced team than an entire gym where you only fight 5 evolutionary families because that's all there is for that type (Canalave City Gym, where you literally fight 6 magnemites and a magneton, assuming you fight all the gym trainers) -don't even get me started on Opelucid Gym in BW-
No telling, I'd imagine we'd measure charizard like a kangaroo (no clue how they measure them). But for furret, I assume length because height would just be a weird stat. It's like having a snake and saying it's two inches tall lol it's just wrong
Another dumb decision: removing moves like Dragon Rage, Frost Breath and Flame Burst. And now a personally dumb decision: dragon types not being able to learn fire type moves naturally. Specifically Ember, Incinerate, Flame Burst, Flamethrower and Fire Blast. Salamence was the ONLY one, he could naturally learn Ember and Fire Fang.

ShadowSora8491 i don’t think anyone misses them...the only good thing about them is 9/10 the roaming pokemon you get after all of that tedium is worth it
Roaming legendaries are fine. It's not like they move in extremly chaotic patterns, which leaves you to having to predict, where it will show up, so you have to already be there, only for the legendary to run in literally the first turn. And that's not even the worst, imagine how it would be, if you could somehow prevent the Mon from fleeing, but it has a move, which basically says to you "F@#% you, I'm leaving anyway". Gamefreak would definitly never do this...
My ideal DP Remakes would be that they have mega evolution, and that there’s also a hard mode, where you can’t use mega evolution (and other trainers can) along with a few other things to make the game harder.
@@Grandflea02 no megas. If megas always in the future games for too long, gamefreak wouldnt be able to try new things. But also would cause unbalance to the competitive scene like mega kanganskan. While dyna/gigamax were more balance and cost more stratagies then in the past.
@@spiritedchung5926 megas were unbalanced as heck and made many other Pokemon useless, while in gmax format every Pokemon can be useful because all of them get equal buffs :) Dmax is much balanced than megas. But yeah megas were just cooler.
Here's some of mine 1: Giving Whitney's Miltank a lum berry in Heartgold and Soulsilver. 2: Giving Charizard two megas and only giving one to Venusaur and Blastoise. 3: Not adding evolutions like Crobat, Steelix, Electivire and Magmortar in Let's go Pikachu and Eevee. 4: Making Pokémon evolve so late in the game (examples: Deino, Pawniard and Larvesta) 5: Making certain shiny Pokémon look the same as their original 6: Not giving a mega to Flygon but giving it to Garchomp who didn't need it. 7: Making Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl extremely buggy 8: The walking with Pokémon feature in sword and shield 9: The Y-Comm in sword and shield 10: Making Molayne's Klefki constantly spam thunderwave if your Pokémon isn't an electric or ground type 11: Lack of fire types in diamond and pearl 12: Pokémon like Zekrom can't use earthquake but a Pokémon like Drilbur can 13: Making the Moor of Iccirus a useless location (if you don't have the event Keldeo in Black and white) 14: Typhlosion's 3D model 15: Not giving the Kalos starters mega evolutions 16: Giving Greninja a special form while Delphox and Chesnaught get nothing 17: the GTS in the sun and moon games. (Whenever I go on there and there's a hacker, my game crashes) 18: Making Diamond and Pearl incredibly slow 19: The level cap in Heartgold and Soulsilver 20: Shiny Pokémon not appearing in the overworld in Sword and shield 21: Learning Braille in the Hoenn games 22: The requirements to get Regigigas in Omega ruby and Alpha sapphire. 23: Shiny locking the starters and main legendaries in Sword and shield 24: Not being able to turn off the Rotom dex which constantly gives you the same advice. 25: making Galarian Articuno psychic\flying instead of ice\psychic. Galarian Moltres Dark\flying instead of Dark\fire and Galarian Zapdos fighting\flying instead of Fighting\electric. 26: Roaming legendaries 27: Making Sceptile a special attacker instead of a physical attacker 28: Hop stopping you every 5 minutes just to fight you 29: not being able to skip cutscenes in the sun and moon games
Since Flying is the type that basically unifies all three of the legendary birds I think it makes more sense to leave them the same and change their first types instead. Plus their Galar counterpart's pokédex entries basically confirm why they aren't Fire, Ice and Electric respectively. Articuno's eye beams freeze foes solid but not in literal ice, Moltres' dark aura is only "flame-like" and Zapdos' feathers only produce a crackling sound like electricity when rubbing together. They're all just tangential reasons really, certainly nothing that would make them literally those types.

...which makes no sense considering how sun and moon turned out. It would make a lot of sense that ash would have a more relaxing time after winning a league. Also you look at the gen 8 anime and see that no one recognises him as alola champion, so winning the league really made no difference lol
@@largenaq2935 what I'm really liking is that they are clearly treating him as Leon's equal in the latest episodes, which is great and they also kinda teased us when Leon said "it's what any Champion would do" but it's like they're afraid to mention that, yeah, Ash is actually a Champion too you guys. Defeated Gods and what else.
It really feels more like *Look. Charizard won!*
But sun & moon were great. I just don't like how the league was handled and the necrozma episodes. But the match against kukui who teamed up with tapu koko really improved the league win.

Now if they combine the orange island with aloha and made drake the pokemon league champion I would have accepted that. But with aloha they sold half a region with more legendary and ultra beasts to cover up for the island challenge.

The "needs to be traded in order to evolve" thing always bugged me as a kid. It still bugs me as an adult, but at least getting more than one version became easier as I got older. As a kid, unless you had a sibling who also loved Pokemon, or some really generous parents, you had to rely on a friend also having the game. Also totally with you on Ashs league losses. Johto and Hoenn are the only ones that don't leave a bad taste in my mouth. With those, Ash just lost to a standard trainer who was better. Sure introducing a pokemon from another region days before the battle could be considered a bullshit move, but Ash battled well against it, and the battle kept the pokemon from competing in it's trainers next match.
@Rahul Adhi I said it "could be" considered a bullshit move. I.E, some others may think that the writers going this route is a bullshit move. I personally don't think it is. That's why I made it clear that Johto was one of the league loses by Ashs that doesn't leave a bad taste in my mouth. Hoenn being the other one.

For those who don't know, the reason you need to go somewhere specific to forget HMs is so that you don't softlock yourself on an island without Surf or something. In fact, if you try to release your last Pokemon that knows an HM move, it'll come back to you with the message, "______ came swimming back! Was it worried about you?"
Which is actually really wholesome.
Id be somewhat inclined to accept that except it still doesnt really make much sense. The pokemon has to be in your party anyways to change its moveset, so you could just pop the hm back on it if you get yourself stranded. Only reason I can really see is that its to keep you from forgetting it *while* youre surfing, but thats no reason to make cut and strength also a pain in the ass to forget
@@dubiousdeliquite6641 You can very easily strand yourself places by forgetting moves and not carrying the HM with you. If you need Strength or Cut to get in and out of some place, it makes sense that they couldn't forget it on the spot. This feature was added in Gen III, where it was still possible to store your HMs in the PC, so you could be stuck in the field if you forgot something at the wrong time. Keeping the feature around is a good failsafe in case of unexpected glitches, too.

How was wailords weight one of the worst decisions? It's ingenious! It's the "Float whale" pokemon, because it's density is actually lower than air, so it floats in the air! It's one of my favorite tidbits of the gen3 dex
It’s also partially based on a blimp
Only problem with that is that it wouldn't really be a water pokemon at that point..it's so light it'd probably just be high in the sky instead 24/7! Plus it's never really shown to fly in anything, so I think they made it's weight way too low. Low enough that it can float up in water is ok but so light it should fly away like a balloon?? That's kind of weird especially as it's never shown to be the case.
because heavy ball no good on light pokemon only on heavy ones you need to catch for the weight then might as well use repeat balls.
Game Freak: sorry flygon but our artists have no brain to draw a cool mega maybe future
Flygon: ok
*years later*

And instead they give him Dragon Dance.

To be fair, Lance has many dragon-like Pokemon.
Also a ghost specialist like Agatha. To an extent also Lorelei and how few ice types there were.
In Johto they did the same mistake with Morty.
What is more, in Johto most gym leaders do not use Johto pokemon at all (Falkner could have used a hoothoot or even natu, Bugsy could have used ledyba or/and spinarak instead of frigging metapod and kakuna, Morty does not use a misdreavus and Chuck does not use a hitmontop).

I disagree on the Hyper Potion nerf. Before nerfing it, Max Potions were useless during the main story unless you had a Pokemon with gargantuan base HP. Pokemon rarely reach 200 or much higher than 200 by the Elite Four. Money comes easy in most Pokemon games, especially later gens which is when the nerf happened, so I don't think it's a big deal.
Yeah. People will often being dismissive about that. I used that to heal my Pokémon when I’m not in anywhere near the Pokémon Center. I heal them with berries I got left in the bag.
Or get rid of max potions since they're still useless because you're able to buy full restores over max potions :/

Game Freak getting rid of the VS Seeker after Generation 4, and pretty much eliminating the option to re battle trainers after Generation 6.
Huh. And I thought the introduction of the VS Seeker was annoying.
Like, it went from the PokéNav's "check for any trainers anywhere who want to battle" to the Poketch's "check to see if maybe some of the trainers onscreen want to battle, and if you don't, you'll have to run in circles madly until you can try again, and if one trainer just happened to walk out of frame, too bad, you'll have to recharge then press again to see if they're ready to battle, and pray that you're not wasting all those steps this time, good luck."
I honestly suspect the VS Seeker almost singlehandedly ruined my Sinnoh experience by making grinding such a grind.
I never liked the Vs. Seeker. The Gen 3 Hoenn games' vs seeker was horseshit, it's incredibly difficult to go through the trainers cos it was organised so badly. Gen 4's took too long to work and only let you battle 1 or 2 specific trainers each time. ORAS did it the best but it was still only ok. I much preferred gen 5's use of audino in shaking grass. It was a very consistent training method that worked throughout the whole game, letting you grind easily at your own pace.
Trainer: *Went too far away from his Pokémon*
*Toxtricity has learnt the move 'Teleport'*

Anime Logic makes Absolute ZERO sense. I agree. How can Metagross or Scizor be damaged by weak Poison Pokemon if they're immune to poison?
I think the anime struggles in such situations, because they have two options:
1. Game-Logic. Pokemon not even flinching when getting hit by attacks they are immune to.
2. Real-Logic. Pokemon daking damage or at least flinching, since they are still physically hit with something.
Yes, it wouldn't make sense, if a Pokemon, which is immune to electric, get's K.O.ed by a lightningbolt (looking at you, first Movie -.-).
However, if a 120 lbs snake uses it's full strength and smacks that Metagrosses forehead with it's tail (from which I don't know how hard it is), it would also make no sense if the Metagross didn't flinch at least a little bit.
(I'm not saying you are wrong with anything, just wanted to defend something, that can be excused (to some extend))
I think it’s not the poison that’s hurting them but the hit itself
I mean, you can get rid of Toxic Spikes by using Dig and Flare Blitz underground.
You can have Thunder Armor (Swellow would have fainted in the games)
Hawlucha getting hit by Bone Rush Mega Lucario.
Game logic simply doesn't translate well in the anime, because then you get either a really boring anime, or you need to exclude some moves from the anime.
Pokemon logic:
Mom: Ima send my 10 year old kid out to travel the world and fight monsters and adults
Adults: Oh a kid with a pokemon! I'ma fight him and beat him
Adult: *loses*
Adult: I was sure i could've beaten you but i guess I'm not strong enough, but can i have your number
10 year old kid: *gives number to random adult he beat in battle*
Gamefreak: yea that's cool
I don't see a problem with this, obviously children in real life should always carry a gun or equivalent item on them at all times.

Just forgetting that Megas existed, then blatantly removing them
I don't think they forgot; I just think they were being contemptuous then. Just look at the light mega evolving is put in in Gen 7's lore.
I think the real dumb decision was to introduce a shiny new mechanic, get everyone hyped on it, then tell everyone one generation later, "You know that one cool thing you were all excited about and enjoying? Yeah, it's cruel and inhumane, and you should be ashamed for liking this thing we got you hyped about." And THEN discontinue it entirely and replace this mechanic which actually helped some power creep victims catch up with one which was basically game-breaking in all tiers but uber, which had too strong a metagame for some of the giga forms to catch up even there, making it pointless.

Erika giving the Rainbow Badge for saving the Gym from Team Rocket, Team Rocket cheating by high-jacking the Gym, and then not giving him the Earth Badge, etc. So yeah! Ash didn't "Earn" most of his Kanto badges.
@@dubiousdeliquite6641 yeah i am aware actually. Pokemon yake LONGER to heal in the anime because they dont just get put on a machine for 5 secs and are instantly healed, they need actual medical attention so again how is any of that fair? If damage rarely carries over between battles then why was pikachu exhausted even though it hardly did anything that episode? it was pigiotto that dragged them to the stadium. It rarely carries over because they have time to rest between them sometime they even have to stay in the center overnight to recover . Saying damage doesnt carry over is one of the the one of the dumbest things I've heard. But even After all of that it does not excuse the referee making stupid calls the whole time. I'm not saying ash should have won that battle, but it was not even close to the "greatest battle ever" they promised each other. It all could have been completely different if ash had just explained what happened to him so the league could compensate but Letting him swap some mons or rescheduling but no he decided it was a good idea to battle anyway because .....ash. yeah it's still ash fault for losing but not entirely. Pokemon training in the anime is completely different than in games and needs to just stop being compared to them already

@@rainpooper7088 reusable TMs is definitely a smart move

I actually liked the tournament in Sword and Sheild, it would've been cooler if it was original and unique trainers, but the idea of "it's a tournament" made it feel more real
Yeah I like how galar makes the gym challenge feel like an event since literally there are crowds in all of these fights where as in the old games you just walked into a gym and it was just you and the leader. If they just used new characters it would've been better
The lack of fire options in sinnoh, the two dark types not appearing in johto and the GS ball are among the worst in my opinion.
Will in Johto not having Espeon and the dark one having Vileplume and not Tyranitar is just dumb
Most gen 2 playthrough teams are:
Johto Starter + 5 Kanto mons
There were only 100 new pokemon to begin with, and obtaining some of them so late was really ridiculous.
That's why I only play randomizer when I replay a Gen 2 game.
Randomizers are a LOT of fun!
and Ampharos
Gen 2 was designed to be more of a sequel than a standalone game; Game Freak had slightly different intentions back then
I had a Quagsire as a HM slave.
Randomizers can really expose how the distribution of Pokemon in some games is lacking. Why keep sneasel away from us till we get 16 badges.
Poor little Snom. He didn’t ask for any of this 😂

Honestly, for number 1, I actually really like that decision. I think it made them feel more like they focused on the Moves being their respective types while allowing their teams to be more balanced.
Personally, I'd rather have a gym leader that actually seems like a competent trainer with a balanced team than an entire gym where you only fight 5 evolutionary families because that's all there is for that type (Canalave City Gym, where you literally fight 6 magnemites and a magneton, assuming you fight all the gym trainers)

No telling, I'd imagine we'd measure charizard like a kangaroo (no clue how they measure them). But for furret, I assume length because height would just be a weird stat. It's like having a snake and saying it's two inches tall lol it's just wrong
Roughly half of Furret’s body length is it’s tail, so it’s height should be just under 3ft, I think
Another dumb decision: removing moves like Dragon Rage, Frost Breath and Flame Burst.
And now a personally dumb decision: dragon types not being able to learn fire type moves naturally.
Specifically Ember, Incinerate, Flame Burst, Flamethrower and Fire Blast.
Salamence was the ONLY one, he could naturally learn Ember and Fire Fang. And he had it best in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire because now he can learn *Flamethrower,* a move that is very much expected for a dragon to learn (Incinerate and Flame Burst are also good choices).
Yes, Reshiram and Turtonator can learn fire type moves by leveling up, but they're also fire type, of course they can. Therefore, they don't count.

Someone needs to hire this man for his great ideas.
He didn't give us any but okay
He didn't have any great ideas, he just told us the ideas that were bad.
What great ideas?
Yes I am a bit late, but I know this because the reverse effect for the mistakes he made would show these great ideas. And we can fix them easily.

I love how Theres the video music, the game music, a jumpscare slowly appearing and the hp going down
One dumb mistake in my opinion: Making Luxray slow. (Honestly, Luxray looks faster than just 70 base speed)
Same with Buzzwole and Bewear.
Pokémon faster than Luxray (and Decidueye):
Tyrantrum - 71
Tsareena - 72
Drednaw - 74
Tapu Bulu, Toxtricity - 75
Blastoise - 78
Buzzwole - 79
Venusaur, Togekiss, Mamoswine, Gallade, Goodra - 80
Lycanroc (Midnight) - 82
Magmortar - 83
Nidoking, Kommo-o, Rillaboom - 85
Excadrill - 88 (and Sand Rush on top)
Krookodile - 92
Haxorus, Urshifu - 97
Scolipede - 112 (and Speed Boost on top)
@@falinks6584 Just imagine that thing coming at you at 50 Kmph AND accelerating.
@@PropiaRealidad it would be a nightmare come to life
@@goGothitaLOL I dont get why Scolipede has a high speed AND Speed Boost. Like bruh
The Typhlosion change still pisses me off and I didn’t even play Pokemon after 5th gen.
I believe that the reason Nidoking and Nidoqueen can't breed is because it's incredibly difficult to breed Rhino's in captivity.
Nah, it's just because it was too hard to implement it in the Gen 2 breeding system and they just kinda let it go that way forever :)
It's a video game, Nintendo CAN enable them to breed anytime, but they don't bc idk... Such a realistic excuse doesn't work lol
Nah all your claims are invalid, they are brother and sister obviously
@@dr.swaggy6962 Then who are their parents then? :v Are you telling me that ALL Nidorans (M)/Nidorinos/Nidokings and Nidorans(F)/Nidorinas/Nidoqueens in the Pokemon universe are siblings?
INCEST INTENSIFIES
@@erich_ika I feel like they can make other pokemon produce an egg from their respective line at this point. it's long over due that they make them the same species. because they already have male and female counterparts of some pokemon, where gender effects it's stats, abilities, moves etc
Gamefreak: We dont wanna include the azure flute in DPP because it's too confusing for kids
The regi quest as a whole: Hold our braille
I feel like you actually could make a part 2...i was really expecting roaming legendaries
I don't miss roaming legendaries. They're just too frustrating to deal with.
ShadowSora8491 i don’t think anyone misses them...the only good thing about them is 9/10 the roaming pokemon you get after all of that tedium is worth it
Based on a new trailer for the crown tundra I think the galar birds may be roaming as you could see articuno flying around in normal gameplay
@@redrazorx-23 I have to give them that, considering that I still love Entei and Latios, to this day.
Roaming legendaries are fine. It's not like they move in extremly chaotic patterns, which leaves you to having to predict, where it will show up, so you have to already be there, only for the legendary to run in literally the first turn. And that's not even the worst, imagine how it would be, if you could somehow prevent the Mon from fleeing, but it has a move, which basically says to you "F@#% you, I'm leaving anyway".
Gamefreak would definitly never do this...
So a furry ferret is taller than a fire dragon
How unimaginable
Nidoking: *cries in 1.4 m*
speaking of which, why do people think charizard design is creative anyway? The design is cool doesn't mean its creative
But at least the ferret can walcc
@@MariOmor1 yes
Actually I think longer, but that is still a monster ferret!
Not having mega evolutions in sword and shield wtf
My ideal DP Remakes would be that they have mega evolution, and that there’s also a hard mode, where you can’t use mega evolution (and other trainers can) along with a few other things to make the game harder.
Ikr, megas are so much cooler than gigantamax...
@@Grandflea02 no megas. If megas always in the future games for too long, gamefreak wouldnt be able to try new things. But also would cause unbalance to the competitive scene like mega kanganskan. While dyna/gigamax were more balance and cost more stratagies then in the past.
@@spiritedchung5926 megas were unbalanced as heck and made many other Pokemon useless, while in gmax format every Pokemon can be useful because all of them get equal buffs :)
Dmax is much balanced than megas. But yeah megas were just cooler.
Ngl I like Gmax better lol
Here's some of mine
1: Giving Whitney's Miltank a lum berry in Heartgold and Soulsilver.
2: Giving Charizard two megas and only giving one to Venusaur and Blastoise.
3: Not adding evolutions like Crobat, Steelix, Electivire and Magmortar in Let's go Pikachu and Eevee.
4: Making Pokémon evolve so late in the game (examples: Deino, Pawniard and Larvesta)
5: Making certain shiny Pokémon look the same as their original
6: Not giving a mega to Flygon but giving it to Garchomp who didn't need it.
7: Making Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl extremely buggy
8: The walking with Pokémon feature in sword and shield
9: The Y-Comm in sword and shield
10: Making Molayne's Klefki constantly spam thunderwave if your Pokémon isn't an electric or ground type
11: Lack of fire types in diamond and pearl
12: Pokémon like Zekrom can't use earthquake but a Pokémon like Drilbur can
13: Making the Moor of Iccirus a useless location (if you don't have the event Keldeo in Black and white)
14: Typhlosion's 3D model
15: Not giving the Kalos starters mega evolutions
16: Giving Greninja a special form while Delphox and Chesnaught get nothing
17: the GTS in the sun and moon games. (Whenever I go on there and there's a hacker, my game crashes)
18: Making Diamond and Pearl incredibly slow
19: The level cap in Heartgold and Soulsilver
20: Shiny Pokémon not appearing in the overworld in Sword and shield
21: Learning Braille in the Hoenn games
22: The requirements to get Regigigas in Omega ruby and Alpha sapphire.
23: Shiny locking the starters and main legendaries in Sword and shield
24: Not being able to turn off the Rotom dex which constantly gives you the same advice.
25: making Galarian Articuno psychic\flying instead of ice\psychic. Galarian Moltres Dark\flying instead of Dark\fire and Galarian Zapdos fighting\flying instead of Fighting\electric.
26: Roaming legendaries
27: Making Sceptile a special attacker instead of a physical attacker
28: Hop stopping you every 5 minutes just to fight you
29: not being able to skip cutscenes in the sun and moon games
These are all so accurate.
Since Flying is the type that basically unifies all three of the legendary birds I think it makes more sense to leave them the same and change their first types instead. Plus their Galar counterpart's pokédex entries basically confirm why they aren't Fire, Ice and Electric respectively.
Articuno's eye beams freeze foes solid but not in literal ice, Moltres' dark aura is only "flame-like" and Zapdos' feathers only produce a crackling sound like electricity when rubbing together. They're all just tangential reasons really, certainly nothing that would make them literally those types.
@@rjs4176 That was a mistake on my part. I think I wrote this before I got the DLC for sword and shield. But thank you for correcting me anyway
@@alyssaoc9250 No problem. 👍
Crabwarler. A pokemon you get on the first island only evolves once at victory road. WTF
Gamefreaks dumbest Decision ever is literally rushing their mainline games rather than taking their time and finishing polishing their “improve graphics”.
It's like Produced 1 Mainline Pokemon with 2 version game with just Fucking released almost One year after Pokemon Let's Go. Just One year to Made A new Pokemon game with 2 versions on Switch.
I've heard game freak has to release a Pokémon game every year but I don't know if it's true
@@JoboVT unlike EA released sport games like Fifa and Madden
Yeah. I do wished they slow down and take their time to release it on December 15 during making of gen 8
It's an improvement on the other games
I actually kinda liked how they changed the elite 4 into a tournament. I do love the elite 4 but having something like what they had in the anime is pretty dope.
The battle royale thing frustrates me to no end, you come up with a fun new way for people to fight pokemon, and then ruin it by cutting it short
Not to mention that players who get ganged up on are auto-screwed/ destined to die
Hop being made into Pokèmon Professer Assistant rather then a Trainer who works harder and trains to beat us someday.
That still hurts me how stupid it is.
How the difficulty settings in gen 5 were implemented.
@person person I think you missed the "implemented" part
“Not including an elite four in sword and shield”
I personally liked the tournament, fit the lore of gym leaders being professionals sports players
I agree, although they should have executed it differently imo, based on your starter.
If you choose Grookey, your first opponent is Kabu
For Sobble its Milo
For Scorbunny its Nessa.
@@nickdentoom1173 yea, I wouldve liked it if the tournament winners were randomized to
At the very least I think milo shouldve gotten a rematch where he actually gets an interesting team.
#55: giving every ghost Pokemon that are glass cannons the ability curse body
They Nerf my baby boy Gengar because of that
Gengar was fine with Levitate. Cause only 1 of his 4 weaknesses was neutralized. Which really helped.
Now he's become more frail with Levitate removed.
@@nine_tails137 and then they gave him curse body. Something that he will barely use in competitive play because he can die from the best phisical and special moves types in the game. Hell curse body is not on any tanky ghost Pokemon that can make that ability worth
@@denzellizasuain563 Exactly! Which is why Cursed Body makes no sense on Gengar. Just like how Rough Skin isn't competitively Viable on Carvanha and Sharpedo, since their Physical Defense is shit!
Honestly the azure flute looks very easy compared to the fricking puzzles to unlock the Regis in gen 3 with you needing to learn a language for blind people and carry two Pokemon in certain spots of your team
