There's a bunch of them, actually: Shofu and Scoot-2011 Pokémon Cypher Shofu and Scoot-2012 Pokémon Cypher 2013 Pokémon Cypher(Where a bunch of these guys first appeared) 2016 Pokémon Cypher 2017 Indigo Cypher 2016 Pokémon Cypher Encore, released in 2017 2018 Super Smash Bros Ultimate Cypher 2019 Pokémon Cypher DLC Pokémon Cypher Warm-Up, Released in 2023 Additionally, these guys pretty much all have their own music discogs that I would recommend checking out, you guys!
The reason I sent this is is because I think all of these artists deserve some real feedback. They all worked hard and at that time XXL was lacking in the cypher game. It was cool to see all kinds of people from gamers to youtubers to streamers to rappers/singers all come together to make a cypher and bring back the fun of it all. Y'all are awesome for reacting to this. Those dudes probably all appreciate this.
This goes hard when you get the references. 'It ain't shocking that my bars are fire cause I wrote them heat'. Rotom-Heat is a fire/electric dual type.
Fun fact: Chris Patrick was a last minute addition to the cypher as someone else had to drop out last minute. Chris had submitted a verse to the fan submission contest they did before this, but didn't win (that was Black Lynk), but got one of the best verses on the cypher in the end!
I would definitely recommend having someone there with you to help explain some of the more subtle bars or comparisons if you tackle the 2024 pokemon cypher next. Its a treat regardless but that extra touch would be great for you guys and us 😁
Damn, Beers & Bars doing the Pokemon Cypher? Christmas came early. If y'all fw this, try the 2024 one that just dropped. The production on that joint is like night and day.
Man, adding this to my computer game playlist alongside Aesop Rock (Drums On The Wheel), D Double E (Tekken 8), Jonwayne (Bowser I), People Under The Stairs (1Up til the sun up) etc
D Double E also has Street Fighter Riddim, if you're a fan of him you probably already knew but I thought I'd mention it just in case, references go crazy
They progressively get better every cypher. 2024 is the best and recently came out especially with production. And most of these rappers are mentioning things from the Pokemon Games or Anime. Not so much the cards. For example: Pokedex aka Dex isn't a "deck" of cards. It's a digital encyclopedia used to track when you encounter new pokemon. In the Pokemon games on of the goals is to fill the dex (by seeing a new species) and to literally catch them all. Most of the number references are the pokemons number in the dex. Anything with TM or HM in front of it is skill/move that pokemon used to do combat with. TM and HM's let you teach pokemon moves in the games. If you don't play the games you're going to have a hard time understanding the references. Highly recommend playing one of the newer games on the Switch.
Went from watching you guys react to Defqon/hardstyle events to Pokemon cyphers! Hope you guys get around to reacting to the 2024 Pokemon Cypher soon 🙏🏽
Should have started from the beginning in 2013 then the 2016 then the 2019 then the 2024. But now that you have started this one. Might as week go back to do the others then do the new one that just came out a week or 2 ago now. Just to see the progress they all have made. It’s cool to see. Been watching all these guys for over a decade now
Dont usually comment but yall were on the money w anonymuz and denzel comparisons bc im pretty sure theyre cousins(like 99% sure) and have a song together
prior to this the pokemon cyphers had been mainly pokemon content creators rapping, some good, some not so good, but it was fun. in 2019 they focused on getting rappers on here over everything else, and until the 2024 cypher dropped last month it was the best cypher out of all of them and it wasn't close. and 2024 is better than this.
Hahaha this shit whas legendary like mewtwo 👌 Been big time into pokemon from the beginning, 26 years n counting👌 Collecting cards for all these years & now also side hustle in them for some extra paper every month ya feel me 😉✌️ Fun fact: Pokemon has been the biggest franchise in the world for years now. Over hello kitty, over mario, over disney, over starwars EVERYTHIIIING 😏💪
A lot of this is going to go way over the heads of folks not familiar with current Pokemon and not just because you arent familiar with the names of newer Pokemon like you said, it's deeper than that. A lot of these guys are into the semi-pro to pro battling scene (or at leadt pay attention to it) and a lot of bars reference moves, stats, abilities, items, matchups etc. that there's just no way of catching without context. Even knowing Pokemon pretty well I always have to watch reactions to catch stuff cause some of these dudes are talking about some way more technical stuff than a casual fan would. 2024 has a lot more of that type of wordplay if you guys were considering checking it out.
Nah the dudes like VI who are more sophisticated as rappers are saying A LOT of shit related to pokemon. Like every single bar is pokemon related but if you know nothing about pokemon past the names of the old ones, 98% of everything here is gonna go completely over your head cuz you only hear the literal meaning of what they are saying and missing all the double entendres where they are referencing some deep cut shit related to stuff like the meta game, and specific moves and abilities and items. Like for example, when shofu says everybody 31 ain't got no trash in the box, it's referring to the hidden stat values of pokemon called IVs in the games and every pokemon has an IV value in each stat ranging from 0-31. So a Pikachu with 10 special attack IVs will have a lower special attack stat than a Pikachu with a perfect 31, which will give it the highest possible number a Pikachu could have in that stat. So he's saying everyone in his group has all perfect stats, implying they are all super high caliber rappers and none of them are trash. The whole cypher is just full of bars like this that are so easy to miss if you dont play pokemon for real but if you realize what they are really saying, you realize some of these dudes are fucking TALKING.
Just on time! While im listenint, may i recommend "Loaf muzik"? 1865" for a crazy story telling song, or "rollin" for a head banger? You wont be disappointed!
thanks for reacting y'all! 2024 went crazier!!

'It ain't shocking that my bars are fire cause I wrote them heat'.
Rotom-Heat is a fire/electric dual type.
Yeah you guys gotta do 2024 cypher. It just came out not too long ago.
Fun fact: Chris Patrick was a last minute addition to the cypher as someone else had to drop out last minute. Chris had submitted a verse to the fan submission contest they did before this, but didn't win (that was Black Lynk), but got one of the best verses on the cypher in the end!
I did not know that about Chris Patrick in that, thats crazy but was worth the “loss” of a body imo
I fw Chris, but his verse wasn’t really saying anything lol it was just catchy
@@supaded973you’re sleep. He’s the second best verse for sure lmao. First is Kez. 😂

You already know you gotta watch the 2024 cypher next lol. You aren’t ready for the production value, absolutely fire!
Im pretty sure anonymuz has some songs with denzel curry. I think they both came up in the florida scene
I would definitely recommend having someone there with you to help explain some of the more subtle bars or comparisons if you tackle the 2024 pokemon cypher next. Its a treat regardless but that extra touch would be great for you guys and us 😁
'Mind state like Mewtwo, I ain't the ONE to be fucking with 5-0'.
Mewtwos Pokedex number is 150.
