Watched her video, watched Mikey’s reaction, maybe another reaction, and I’m just now realizing maybe the backhanded Eevee compliment was because he was afraid of Jaiden’s mother finding out about giving compliments and it was the only way he could commend her battling skills.
John, you absolutely need to play both Coliseum and Gale of Darkness! I never played them growing up either for the same reason but they are just so good! The fact she doesn't say the key feature is that every battle is a double battle in both games, which I get can be polarizing, is just the chef's kiss to me. It forces you to think a little harder in each battle. Especially when shadow Pokemon become a thing and you want to catch them.
The biggest problem with Coliseum and Gale of Darkness is the selection of pokemon you have access to. So many of the pokemon in that game are underpowered Gen 2 pokemon years before they got their good evolutions and a decent moveset.
@@t-vann48 There is actually a reason why colosseum only has gen 2 pokemon and that's because it has the pokemon that were not available in the other gen 3 games so that players could get a complete pokedex.
So about those "inconsistencies" such as characters pointing to the middle of the desert, they are all explained within this game; generally speaking, characters who faced Cipher back in Colosseum have been keeping an eye on their old lab and such - pretty sure that's why Krane made the new snag machine, cuz they knew Cipher was becoming active again 6:49 Damn, that USUM slander! I've always loved those games as some of my favorites, but I suppose it isn't for everyone; I hold BW, HGSS, and USUM as my top 3... though actually, I guess I hold PLA at the top now Either way, that isn't me trying to argue or anytjing, obviously opinions will differ. I love Colosseum and XD to death as well - probably my favorite spinoffs besides PMD Explorers of Sky - so I'm glad to see them get more attention
This is a funny recap but there are so many little details that are missing which causes people to get the wrong idea about the game. I'm so glad you also see that. NPCs are surprisingly competent in both Colosseum and XD. Wish newer gens would take notes.
You should totally play Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness! They are really fun and different, and the battles through the game really require more thought and skill than typical, especially when trying to catch the Shadow Pokemon in the middle.
Colosseum and XD are considered by many to be the hardest games that are connected to the main series. You would love them. Maybe stream them after you catch all the shinnies in legends?
While it is difficult to be sure, part of that difficulty comes from a couple sources: 1: *Every* battle is a double battle, a style that most people aren't familiar with 2: Approximately 90% of the fights are mandatory. This point wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for... 3: Rest points are much fewer and further between, often being unavailable until you finish a given -gauntlet- section, and as such healing items being much more valuable.
I love how Jaiden doesn't need to tell us about every pokemon she gets and adds to her team, because she trusts people watching to be able to just see the pokemon she has illustrated alongside her character and know that those are the pokemon she is using. It bothers me how often content creators feel the need to overexplain everything as if the people watching don't have eyes or can't read. :)
I would LOVE to see John with his competitive knowledge go through Colosseum and XD. I struggled even with a guide with Colosseum as a kid, because I was a kid, and it'd be great to see how someone as seasoned as him handles the double battles but also trying to catch the shadow Pokemon. Maybe make a run where he HAS to catch every shadow Pokemon plus Nuzlocke rules?
to give credit to chobin. when he fights you in the groudon, his team is the best it could be. his gyarados? it has no water moves that can be weakened by sunny day, which his sunflora has, alongside solar beam. but the best part? He is using a sun team while cosplaying as a groudon. That is hilarious. well done gamefreak
Gale of Darkness was my first ever Pokémon game, so it was a big surprise when I found a used ruby cartridge at my local GameStop and saw the mainline games were completely different. My favorite games will still always be ranger though and I hope a new one comes out soon.
Snag'em was mostly there as fan service. They were in the first game, the MC blows up their base and steals the Snag Machine from them in the opening cutscene.
Gale of darkness wasn't the first official Pokémon media to present in-universe battle sims; in the OG anime, specifically the episode “school of hard knocks”, the titular school is mentioned to have one.
@6:08 Yes, he’s still alive. “In Honor of” refers to people alive. “In Memory of” refers to people who are no longer living. Hope you can remember the difference.
Several things Jaiden overlooked. 1) the purifying stone only works one shadow pokemon at a time, and you need to lower their shadow gauges individually. Which means you are constantly switching your pokemon throughout the game. One of the downsides of Colosseum really. The machine the lab is making lets you purify multiple pokemon at a time the more pokemon you capture. By the time you reach the halfway mark, you're purifying 9 at a time. 2) Miror B finds any shadow pokemon you might have beaten, allowing you a second chance at snagging them, where in Colosseum its gone forever unless its a boss. 3) you don't need to snag greevil's team all at once. You can go back and snag them one at a time if you want.
Jaiden has a point about Gale of Darkness being overshadowed by Colosseum, but Colosseum has better characters, better plot, cooler character design, better music, and much more Miror B. GIVE THE FUNKY LUDICOLO MAN THE SCREENTIME HE DESERVES!!! And there's no Jovi. That fact alone immediately boosts Colosseum leagues ahead of Gale of Darkness.
Have to agree with all that but 1 of the things I think XD did better was the Shadow Pokemon themselves. I've played both and Shadow Pokemon are so much better done in XD with the movesets, Hyper Mode and the whole Shadow being super effective to everything except Shadow. Also much less hassle purifying them unlike Colloseum.
Fair enough. It does make battling much more interesting and strategic. But, to my knowledge, there's no ghost type that the AI keeps trying to use normal moves on in Gale of Darkness. Call me biased, but "It doesn't effect Misdreavus" will go down in history as one of the funniest things from Pokemon... EVER.
@@Maria.Annette true, there are alot of funnier stuff in Colloseum and but in my mind the better Combat AI actually makes the battles more fun than taking advantage of funny bugs like that. That said, I still enjoy doing exactly that and have even done it in recent Pokemon games like Legends Arceus (Hisuian Zoroark against a Ghost type with only Stab attacks so it can't touch me). Honestly if they did a new Colloseum game with the combat systems of XD added to the everything else of Colloseum then it'd be my favourite pokemon game of all time lol
@@PhoenixBorn666 Yup agree the shadow pokemon were better in XD mostly because they had more move options then just Shadow rush all the time and knocking themselves out. Also Mirror B acting like a backup in case you accidentally knocked out any made the game much better
I would love for you to play these games. I would watch every second of it. Waiting for a remake of the games on switch would be ideal but that's probably not gonna happen any time soon
You should definitely play Pokémon Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness! Colosseum is the first game and XD takes place after it! They were both great games that I’m sure you’ll love (plus the characters are crazy 😂)
Play them pure first. Attempting challenge runs of games with highly limited options as it is can be nightmarishly hard, that said I think a randomised version of either one could be fun, seeing something other than teddiursa as the first shadow option in XD would be a treat but I have neither the emulator/ROM/knowhow to do so
I enjoy the modern games but I love XD with a passion. The animations might be a little dated but they have so much more character than the newer games. The way Houndoom throws a flamethrower is completely different from how Arcanine throws one and that is true for every move and every mon. It is a treat
"It would be cool if Pokemon released a Pokemon Battling Simulator" Pokemon Stadium, Pokemon Stadium 2, and Pokemon Battle Revolution: "Are we just jokes to you?"
Like how he knew nothing about this game and then did not catch the important fact about Shadow Pokemon that being that they are so abused they become evil and hate everything and it’s the players job to be friends with them and helpfully purify them
I still don't get how people hate the characters in SM. Ultra sure since they were forcibly flattened and robbed of their depth and motivations, but SM? Really?
Most of the desert locations are old bases from the first game. The ship was accidently dropped by Lugia. It is easier to understand the story of XD by playing the first game.
YES! You need to play Colosseum and XD! Miror B. has different music in the games. Also, every psuedo-legendary from gen 1-3 and most of the legendaries from gens 1 and 2 are in the games. You can get... Zapdos, Articuno and Moltres along with Shadow Lugia in XD Raikou, Entei and Suicune along with Moltres (post game) in Colosseum Only ones you can't get are Mew, Mewtwo and Celebi. ...wow, really makes you realize how few legendary mons were in gens 1 and 2. Oh, and you can get the Gen 2 starters in Colosseum.
I’m sorry but are we just gonna zoom past 16:14 when the old man greevil LITERALLY DOES A FRONTFLIP!!! MY BAD I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS A REGULAR THING FOR OLD PEOPLE TO DO FLIPS
3:06 I mean... Pokemon stadium kinda is a battle sim. But yeah, a modern one with all the Pokemon and battle tower style fights. Show off while you showdown. Hey that gives me an idea for the name- wait...
She kind of glosses over it, but the snag machine let's you steal people's Pokemon in this game. There are actually no wild Pokemon anywhere And I'm, like, 60% sure the lady who sends you to gamble is a Cipher agent just distracting you while they take the city
There's a separate battle SIM at Realgam Tower, the lady gives you "disks" to use (btw the whole millionth visitor thing is fake, not because of Cipher, but another NPC mentions they were the millionth visitor too)
0:42 This reminds me of John and Michael talking about this in "First to Have a Team of Legendaries Wins" video. And they bust out laughing at that time
17:05 Indeed. Which is why the Greevil battle is considered one of-if not THE-hardest battles in the entire franchise. You have to CATCH his entire team of Shadow Pokémon, and HALF of them are LEGENDARIES. And that’s not getting into their completely BS Shadow moves. Believe me, this is an absurdly unfair and difficult battle.
All you'll miss are cameos and references, you don't need to play Colosseum to understand XD at all. Everything from Colosseum that's actually relevant to XD's plot is explained in XD itself in very unskippable exposition dumps.
@@KaleidosXXI and no it’s not nothing aside from the evil team cipher is explained in this video Jaden explained pretty much the missing plot and John is still confused so yes he would need to play Colosseum before he plays XD
@@KaleidosXXI and Colosseum does not have exposition it explains why there are no gym leaders in the region besides Justy a head of Justin becoming gym leader meaning one John thought that there are multiple meaning more then 1
big fan of your videos, really hope you do a playthrough of Colosseum and Gale of Darkness some day, dude. they’re both very good and fun games, and the battling and catching system is really interesting and engaging
i have to give Hau his credit when i played ultra moon _after_ sword. he is much less annoying than Hop, either that or i zoned out during most of ultra moon Jovi though, I know that trope, she seems very puntable
Honestly? I think the opposite. That said, I played the games in order and Hau is much, much worse in original SM. I’d personally argue that endgame Hop is a better character than endgame Hau, even in USUM, but Hop takes a longer time to stop being annoying.
Knowing the exact locations on the desert actually kind of makes sense, if you live near a desert and travel through it you need to know how to map locations on it.
I mean, we kinda did get a 3rd game like this. I mean it changed the battling system a bit, but Legends Arceus is also a Single Player Pokemon RPG experience like these are. Not quite as goofy as these two are though lol
Strongly strongly recommend playing both Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness!! the Shadow Pokemon games are absolute classics, they have a lot of charm to them
Stadium, Stadium 2, and Battle Revolution act as official alternatives, though inconvenient thanks to the prices on having them on the original hardware if you're going in blind and the attachment to -Nintendo's knockoff of Sega Channel,- Nintendo Switch Online for if you don't want to buy the game as released. Thankfully, Showdown's gen 1, 2, and 4 metagames exist so we get to do their multiplayer content for a lower cost without the damage that piracy inflicts to one's reputation.

Pokémon Colosseum and Gale of Darkness needs a Switch Remake
Facts
Yes 👍
True, but it will probably be the same game just with upscaled hd textures rather than a remake like they did oras.
Fax, but they should also buff graphics
I’d honestly just take a straight port
Watched her video, watched Mikey’s reaction, maybe another reaction, and I’m just now realizing maybe the backhanded Eevee compliment was because he was afraid of Jaiden’s mother finding out about giving compliments and it was the only way he could commend her battling skills.
I didn’t notice that! Good catch! 😊
Lol!
I didn't even think of that angle
I really like Jaiden's sense of humor. It's a bit different from most content creators, and it's pretty refreshing.
“Why would Lugia bring the cruise ship to the desert?” Because that’s the last place you’d look for a missing cruise ship. 🚢 😂

"forces you to think a little harder in each battle", me: *just casually chucking balls and breezing through by luck
@@LukaFireIce13 *casually stares and then flips table* MOTHER $@%#@%! Where was that luck for me?!
i love that john had the same thought process that mikey did when jaiden said and changed the characters name
John should absolutely play both of these. I look forward to his reaction to the first Colisseum cutscene.

I would 100% be down for watching a series of you playing both Colosseum and XD.
Team Snag'em are basically just callbacks to the previous game in the set. They were one of the main antagonists there.
Dude, Coliseum and DX need to have playthroughs from you, they are a real treat

Pokémon Battle Revolution is probably the closest we’re going to get to a Pokémon battle simulator.
He is basically master of goku but worse because he has the worst of the abilities,powers and tecniques
You could ask Mikey about it he has done a play through of it I love XD
You should watch Mikeys playthrough on this game and team snagum played a bigger role in collosium
I've always wondered, is John always stood up in his new setup because it looks a lot like it?
Wow! A reaction video with actual _reactions!_
Lol I subbed immediately
"IF you SOMEHOW haven't watch it yet" he said
i love how he says pokemon needs a battle sim and yet colosseum last i checked was one haha
You should definitely play Pokémon Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness! Colosseum is the first game and XD takes place after it! They were both great games that I’m sure you’ll love (plus the characters are crazy 😂)

I would absolutely watch Jon do a play through of this game. His energy is too much fun
I'd love to see a let's play of this with Mikey, since it's his favorite.
If you played Pokemon Colosseum and then Gale of Darkness I would happily watch it on repeat for like 3 straight days!
I enjoy the modern games but I love XD with a passion. The animations might be a little dated but they have so much more character than the newer games. The way Houndoom throws a flamethrower is completely different from how Arcanine throws one and that is true for every move and every mon. It is a treat
It would be awesome to start with the first game so we can see your raw reactions to it.
I love that Shadow Pokemon continue to live on in Pokemon go
I sometimes wish Pokemon side games would get remakes!
You got to admit tho, Jaiden somehow made herself look good when she’s playing as a boy.
We need John to play both coliseum and gale of darkness on his channel
"It would be cool if Pokemon released a Pokemon Battling Simulator"

I want to see footage of Jaiden recording herself for this video saying *“Crank!”*
Please play one of them, will be a pleasure to see you play one of those games.
I will not stand for this ultra sun slander
Definitely should play them on the plays channel. they're fun games. mikey can vouch for it.
Jaiden: "Who knows when shadow pokemon will return"
Pokemon GO: Allow us to rectify the situation.
Waiting for the day that Pokémon conquest is revealed under the ashes
The opposite of Kisses: CRIME
Most of the desert locations are old bases from the first game. The ship was accidently dropped by Lugia. It is easier to understand the story of XD by playing the first game.
they did make simulators. WAAAAY back when. Pokemon Stadium on N64, Stadium 2 on Gamecube (colosseum as bonus inclusion) and Battle Revolution on wii
I would love too see a collab let’s play with Mikey maybe your guys version of a soullocke without the perma death for Mikey obvs😂
tvat one moment when u hit ur foot again ur bed-
YES! You need to play Colosseum and XD! Miror B. has different music in the games. Also, every psuedo-legendary from gen 1-3 and most of the legendaries from gens 1 and 2 are in the games.
You can get...
Zapdos, Articuno and Moltres along with Shadow Lugia in XD
Raikou, Entei and Suicune along with Moltres (post game) in Colosseum
Only ones you can't get are Mew, Mewtwo and Celebi.
...wow, really makes you realize how few legendary mons were in gens 1 and 2.

This had to be one of my favorite games. Lol. I love this.
Why to play Pokémon XD: exclusive moves like Psycho Boost Lugia and Metal Sound Zapdos, and Mirror B’s sick beats.
Why not to play: Jovi.
There's a separate battle SIM at Realgam Tower, the lady gives you "disks" to use (btw the whole millionth visitor thing is fake, not because of Cipher, but another NPC mentions they were the millionth visitor too)
Love the video keep them up. love u John (the easily flustered)
Team Snagem is a cute reference to Colosseum, they're more important in that game.
I absolutely recommend Colosseum and XD. XD more so, since Colosseum has a few… questionable design choices (it’s not bad, not by a long shot)
I'd enjoy seeing the John Guy go through Colosseum and/or XD Gale of Darkness.
14:52 Why does he look like the Elmo fire meme-

I'm actually sad I never got the chance to play Gale of Darkness or Colosseum
Colosseum and XD were the first two pokemon games I ever played.
Snagem were the bad guys in colosseum, that’s why they have that little cameo moment in XD
1:17 finally someone noticed that. All the other people that watched the video never noticed
"Pokemon, rawr". Anyone that gets the reference to one of John and Mikey's shiny challenges, good job.
Yes please play Pokémon Colosseum and Gale of Darkness. I would like to watch you play them.

Thankfully, Showdown's gen 1, 2, and 4 metagames exist so we get to do their multiplayer content for a lower cost without the damage that piracy inflicts to one's reputation.
Please a playthrough of either would be incredible, its so campy and fun
Shadow Pokémon that’s scary
