Hey guys. We had an error in the original upload last week that we just couldn't let stand. So we pulled it and re-uploaded with a proper fix. Many apologies for the confusion. -brandon
As someone who is in his 20s and has played all Pokemon games and has a living Pokedex, it does me joy to know that the series I love is culturally recognized enough to be used for educational purposes on a TH-cam channel
You have a living dex? And they're all just frozen in time waiting to be set free just so you could fill your collection? You're no better than the antagonist.
+angeldude101 How else am I going to fill the Pokedex, which is the sole task required in every Pokemon game I mean, with Poke Pelago, living dexes are really just heavily expanded zoos and the San Diego Zoo isn't the work of a nefarious mastermind getting animals to fight each other in combat however might be
you are supposed to have 720 Pokemon as of ORAS, and 801 Pokemon as of Sun and Moon some more astute gamers might have multiple formes and genders of Pokemon, but it's not required
I remeber when Pokemon red/blue first came out when I was like 10 and it was such a huge phenomen, my private school thought it was satanic, so they would take our pokemon cards from us when we brought them to school. I've still yet to get my 1st edition charizard back.
they should tell them about Shin Megami Tensei that game is as literal satanic as you can get, has similar features to Pokemon, and came out nearly a decade earlier
I had my cards taken by teachers twice in one year (returned at the end of the day). One time, a teacher confiscated my cards and she happened upon a Machop from the Base Set. Another teacher walked by and said "I bet I could sell that for $50 bucks"... I was laughing my head off inside and I almost had the urge to say "good luck with that".
Pokémon Gen 1: 151 Gen 2: 251 Gen 3: 386 Gen 4: 493 Gen 5: 649 Gen 6: 721 Gen 7: 802 However, these numbers are a little misleading, due to pokémon with the same dex number but different typing. Such as Wormadam and Oricorio. And also the Alolan forms of some Gen1 pokémon. If they were all given their own entries, the total list would be around 851.
Pokemon Go served it's purpose on me. I stopped having basically anything to do with Pokemon after playing Pokemon Black version, as I had simply become bored of it and felt I was outgrowing it. However, Pokemon Go got me more interested in Pokemon again, to the point where I went back and replayed Platinum, starting watching the anime again (I binged all of XY to catch up), and am now planning on getting a 2ds so I can play Sun & Moon, as well as the 6th gen games (X&Y) I missed and Omega Rub or Alpha Sapphire, the remakes in my favorite region: Hoenn.
William Stockhecker As a long time fan, you probably shouldn't bother with Gen VI. X and Y was mediocre and ORAS didn't quite top the original. You should probably skip right to Sun and Moon unless you simply *HAVE TO* have more Pokémon.
ThePieMaster I loved the XY anime so much, it feels weird to just skip the games it took place in. Plus it would be then only generation I've missed. I've played Gold, Leaf Green, Fire Red, Emerald, Diamond, Platinum, Heart Gold, and Black (as well as 2 of the Mystery Dungeons and Shadows of Almia). Everyone had so much character in the Anime. Clemont, Serena, Korrina, Diantha, Tierno, Shauna, Trevor, Wulfirc, Viola, Grant, Malva, Lysandre, all of them. I feel attached to these characters, so I feel it would enhance my gameplay experience. I also really enjoyed all the gen 6 Pokemon from what I saw in the anime.
I would definitely recommend playing Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire. The first game I ever played was Ruby, and ThePieMaster is right in saying that the original can never be topped.. but to return a decade later and play it again on the 3DS was so awesome and reminiscent!!!!
William Stockhecker The thing about X and Y is that a majority of the characters you mentioned have significantly less personality in the games than in the anime. "Hi, I'm the gym leader, let's fight. Oh, you're powerful, here's my gym badge. Good luck on your adventure that I won't see you again for." - Basically every Gym Leader in that game
Cura Kira Coren You are correct, though only 801 are actually obtainable, since Marshadow hasn't been distributed yet. And you can't even get all 801 of those Pokémon together yet since only about 300-400 are obtainable across Sun and Moon.
Andre, thanks for reminding me. Pokémon Pinball was also the first Pokémon game I played! I went everywhere with my new Gameboy Color and carrying bag.
I like Pokemon because of the large customizable aspect of the game in picking you team of six from hundreds of different creatures. It is fun because you can play the game many times and have completely different experiences depending on what Pokemon are on your team. The ability to trade and battle with friends is also fun.
I find it amusing people were complaining it was nothing more than a commercial... Thats literally what Ninja turtles, My little ponies, He-man and every other cartoon of that time and this time is...
I never thought this day would come, since Andre has ACKNOWLEDGED that he's very neutral to the Pokemon franchise even in his own channel. But as a long-time fan since the first Generation of Pokemon games, I love how this episode was done.
It's not just how commercially and financially successful the Pokémon franchise is as a business model. It's how _positive_ it is. The basic central tenets of the entire series are all about having fun, enjoying life, and being nice to each other. Pokémon is a franchise that constantly gives people positive goals and positive ideals to strive towards. It's optimistic and light-hearted, even when it makes the occasional subtle or not-so-subtle references towards much darker and more serious real world issues. I think that's a huge part of why it's so universally accepted and praised, and why it's so accessible to so many people.
I was around when Pokemon first came out and I collected a whole lot of cards back then, but I've never witnessed any kid ever actually playing with the cards. Never seemed appealing to any of us lol
A lot of whether or not you played depended on your age at the time I think. I never got into it because I got into Magic:The Gathering before that, and it sucked away enough of my young allowance that I didn't want to go through that again :)
When I was around 12 all of the kids at my summer pool would collect cards, sharing and battling for fun. Playing it never had as much of an appeal to it as the collective experience
Official respect for this channel and also Pokemon now given. Before this video I was 'meh' about the channel, now I have loads of respect for the process and ability of this channel to convey some well informed information about gaming. Also, I was 1 year too old for the initial pokemon craze/fad that hit my school as a kid and I brushed it aside as "just another dumb thing" that we all get barraged with by media targeted to us as kids.... but pokemon has had a level of 'staying power' that i didn't understand until this video put things in context for me. Thanks guys!
I was 10 when pokemon first came out, and I've loved it ever since. I am in a grad program right now to be a school counselor, and being able to talk about pokemon with the kids almost instantly creates a positive rapport. The genius of this game really cannot be overstated.
Pokemon Go seems like a fun game until your front yard is suddenly turned into a Poke stop and you need to go outside to get the mail while a group of complete strangers is pointing their camera phones at you.
Let's not forget Pokemon Uranium. Absolutely glorious game made purely by fans, for PC. An amazing game for sure. And Pokemon in Smash Melee. He mentioned fighting games right?
You referred to people who weren't around for the original games as "the second generation". In a series that calls its games "generations", that was a pun.
I started with Pokémon black 2 (yeah, I'm new) and it is the BEST THING EVER I've memorized nearly every Pokémon, and I am proud to say I have 2,000+ cards
We have like 802 pokemon (with Gen VII just newly released), I will never get tired of catching them all! I completed my national living dex back in 2014, but this year I have decide to get it all including form differences including unowns (except for spinda cause we know you can have 3 million different patterns on it so screw that), as of now i am near complete for my gen vi form differences.
you know what would be the coolest thing ever? You could get so many more views and subs if you had like a sort of sports crash course, not only breaking down sports games but also just history/rules of sports. I would LOVE that kind of content. Example - "How to be a referee" or "How to be an announcer"
From what I've seen, Pokémon Go has had mostly negative social consequences. I visited Angel Island this summer and there was an extended family touring the island. The children were all playing Pokémon Go and one told his mother "I don't want to look at a stupid museum, I want to catch Pokémon. Those kids were frowning every time I saw them, even when they were playing. They also fought each other over a charger. In one of my college classes, the syllabus mentioned specifically to not play the game during class.
i actually didn't get into pokemon until this year, and i'm 19! pokemon go piqued my interest, and i just loved it. i got pokemon moon for christmas and finished it in a week, and i plan to buy the older games. i wish i'd been into it when i was a kid so i could've enjoyed this sooner!
hey man, my first Pokemon game was Pokemon pinball, too. My mom bought it for me not knowing the difference between it and the blue and red versions, and little kid me didn't have the heart to tell her that the game she finally found was the wrong one. Pokemon pinball actually turned out to be pretty rad, too.
WRONG! "keep an eye out on our social media channels on December 12th for details about the first addition of more Pokémon into Pokémon GO." pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/en/post/sprint/ Dec. 12th, not Dec. 8th. And even then it's apparently just an announcement.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad-ish news, but the official Pokemon Go Twitter account recently posted that they will have an announcement about new Pokemon being added to the game on 12/12 (so Monday). I would expect Gen 2 within a week of that date.
Yea...l just watched Trainer Tips newest video. I'm sad, but maybe my Pokemon Go Plus will be in from China by then. XP I can wait a little bit longer.
1 month later... and still no/little gen 2 RIP pokemon go. Honestly it isn't very good : ( Doesn't have the secret sauce of balance, reward, and reservation.
Goliath! I see Goliath! Man, I wish Disney would put its Disney Afternoon shows on some steaming service somewhere. I could really stand to rewatch the first 2 seasons of Gargoyles. Also, Darkwing Duck.
Although I wasn't around in the Pokémon craze, I still love Pokémon. Been a fan ever since the diamond and pearl anime. Can't get enough of the franchise. Sun and Moon also didn't disappoint.
I´ve read recentlly that miyamoto was inspired by bug collecting wich was popular hobby in japan at times of his youth. Sometimes childrens realeasing their bugs from little boxes to fight one another ;)
The Fate series does a similar thing, but on a much smaller scale. The game has three story lines and each story line now has it's own tv show (Fate/Stay night, Fate/Zero, and Fate/Unlimited Blade Works). There are also spin-offs of the TV show and at least one movie. Fate doesn't have card games, though.
...sigh... how many people watching this are too young to remember when Pokémon was big? (If you say "but Pokemon is big," you don't remember.) I just remember (before Go brought it back), seeing a comic where Pikachu was seen among more recent cartoon characters, and someone commented "who's the yellow rat?" I will never feel older than I felt that day...
I gotta love how Yokai Watch's popularity made Pokémon pick up the pace when it was falling on its laurels, while Digimon in its existance never made Pokémon move an inch from where it is.
The 640-entry national dex really shows the age of this script and dated it to Gen. V, despite the video showing Rowlet, a Gen. VII starter. During the production of this show the national dex have 721 entries.
I've always lucked out because my sister and I both love pokemon, but have different tastes in almost every topic. So we never had a problem with getting from the other game. I got Diamond, she got Pearl. I got SS, she got HG. I got Y, she got X, ect. We both got Platinum, ect. She's got Sun, I'm getting Moon.
Also, at my work, a kid came in with a Lugia toy and was shocked that I knew what it was. He was seven, all I've been playing longer than he's been alive. But I was about his age when I started.
thats funny that you mention about kids finding the rules complicated, when i was a kid the only person who was any fun to play against was my older sister because none of the kids even acted like energy cards existed, and would never pick up cards from their deck
Try the originals. I never played past gen 4 - Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. The original games are really something to experience if you want to understand why kids went nuts back in the 90s. (There's tons of glitches and crappy graphics tho.)
To my knowledge, the only thing he missed was the Pixelmon mod for Minecraft, though obviously not made by the original company. Thousands of people play that too. I've played all of the original format games, up to the GBA versions, as well as the two for n64, the rescue squad, and the card one, also fro gba, I think. I also saw a bit of the first tv series. I loved it, back in the day. My favorites are still Rapidash, and Sableye.
I owned pokémon blue as a kid and went to visit my dad one summer. His neighbor had a kid about my age who had pokémon red. His mom said he had to do something and I made all the trade evolutions to "catch em all" while he was away. I think it was like 354 at the time, not sure. I just had to get that off my chest.

no worries there probzbly working in his berry field in the pokepalago
+angeldude101 How else am I going to fill the Pokedex, which is the sole task required in every Pokemon game
I mean, with Poke Pelago, living dexes are really just heavily expanded zoos
and the San Diego Zoo isn't the work of a nefarious mastermind
getting animals to fight each other in combat however might be
It's funny that Pelago was added in just this game, presumably to make make the player feel a little less guilty about not using all their pokemon.
you are supposed to have 720 Pokemon as of ORAS, and 801 Pokemon as of Sun and Moon
some more astute gamers might have multiple formes and genders of Pokemon, but it's not required
that's probably the only time we'll ever see Ash as an old man
Melanie Caragan Ash COULD be 11 now. According to Bulbapedia you have to be 11 to participate in trial challenges. Therefore, Ash COULD be 11.
T.P.F.C.O. (The Pokemon Fan Club Official) it's about time,that was a long year for him
Years have passed in the show, he just didn't get any older... 10 for ever... RIP.
I remeber when Pokemon red/blue first came out when I was like 10 and it was such a huge phenomen, my private school thought it was satanic, so they would take our pokemon cards from us when we brought them to school. I've still yet to get my 1st edition charizard back.
they should tell them about Shin Megami Tensei
that game is as literal satanic as you can get, has similar features to Pokemon, and came out nearly a decade earlier

Gen 3: 386
Gen 4: 493

i wish the guys I date were like that.
+Bunkhead guys who stay 10
LOL *Lenny face *
I'm pretty sure there are 802 pokemon as of sun and moon. If not, somewhere close to that.
Cura Kira Coren You are correct, though only 801 are actually obtainable, since Marshadow hasn't been distributed yet. And you can't even get all 801 of those Pokémon together yet since only about 300-400 are obtainable across Sun and Moon.
ThePieMaster Right, but I was just talking about the grand total, rather than what's actually available in Sun/Moon.
That's really only until pokemon bank gets hooked up, and then the remakes in a couple years will fill any gaps.
Well, the number 640 in the video was part of a quote, so changing it would have required awkward commentary on the quote, breaking the flow.
I lost count a long time ago.
"Did I miss anything?"
Don't forget cereal and boil bag curry.
I've never clicked so fast!
History teacher: "Are you using Crash Course to help you?"
Me: "Yup."
xD
640 was what was around during Gen V. We are currently in Gen VII.
Gen VI had the Pokemon #666... you should look it up xD... so evil so very evil
Katrina Payne vivion, also known as "satan's wings" and i have a shiny of that sucker
Oh, it's so disturbing that seeing it will BUG you for the rest of your life. XD
Andre, thanks for reminding me. Pokémon Pinball was also the first Pokémon game I played! I went everywhere with my new Gameboy Color and carrying bag.
3:20 Gargoyles was pretty cool too, i rewatched it just recently, still great.
"Did I miss anything?"
Well, if you're including toys & plushes, then you missed clothes
ZeroKami86 I think at this point it is impossible to make a full list of all the pokemon products.
Now THAT is Satoshi Taijiri! you guys are the best, actually reuploading it to fix that and Caterpie etc. It's pretty cool from you!
I like Pokemon because of the large customizable aspect of the game in picking you team of six from hundreds of different creatures. It is fun because you can play the game many times and have completely different experiences depending on what Pokemon are on your team. The ability to trade and battle with friends is also fun.
I find it amusing people were complaining it was nothing more than a commercial... Thats literally what Ninja turtles, My little ponies, He-man and every other cartoon of that time and this time is...

So many Crash Course series; gotta watch'em all!
It's not just how commercially and financially successful the Pokémon franchise is as a business model. It's how _positive_ it is. The basic central tenets of the entire series are all about having fun, enjoying life, and being nice to each other. Pokémon is a franchise that constantly gives people positive goals and positive ideals to strive towards. It's optimistic and light-hearted, even when it makes the occasional subtle or not-so-subtle references towards much darker and more serious real world issues. I think that's a huge part of why it's so universally accepted and praised, and why it's so accessible to so many people.
I was around when Pokemon first came out and I collected a whole lot of cards back then, but I've never witnessed any kid ever actually playing with the cards. Never seemed appealing to any of us lol

Been a trainer since I was 9 yrs old; and I'm 27 years old. I'll forever be a Pokemon trainer; even when I'm dead.
I watched the entire playlist just to reach this episode
Let's not forget Pokemon Uranium. Absolutely glorious game made purely by fans, for PC. An amazing game for sure.
And Pokemon in Smash Melee. He mentioned fighting games right?
"I love these jelly filled donuts. These jelly filled donuts are great!"

I started with Pokémon black 2 (yeah, I'm new) and it is the BEST THING EVER I've memorized nearly every Pokémon, and I am proud to say I have 2,000+ cards
1:54 more particularly Ultraseven, where Dan Moroboshi/Seven carried along capsule monsters to aid him in battling against other monsters.
Not to mention that the grown fans are creating their own content now, theories, fan games, fakemon, top ten lists, discussions. It's amazing.
My favorite are Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Palkia, Dialga, Giratina, and Arceus.
Dude!!!!! Pokémon pinball is dope! I still have the game boy game!

The Fate series does a similar thing, but on a much smaller scale. The game has three story lines and each story line now has it's own tv show (Fate/Stay night, Fate/Zero, and Fate/Unlimited Blade Works). There are also spin-offs of the TV show and at least one movie. Fate doesn't have card games, though.

Wait a second... didn't this come out a week ago?
LilaRose89 there were issues with the facts in the first video. They fixed it and reposted.
Well it needs to be fixed again because Ultraseven had the 3 companion monsters, not ultraman. Sure its the franchise name but still
Riiight I understand now.

Jaddua Jones I haven't watched any of that
I love CrashCourse
you gotta be a mid 80's baby to really appreciate the Pokémon phenomenon
Damn son, I guess Channel Awesome ain't paying off.
Hey, remember those people who died playing Pokemon go? Good times.
it looks like this is coming to an end, the next episode is the FUTURE of games
I sure hope not!
The first Pokémon game I played was Pokémon Pinball too!
I love Pokemon this video is right on time
802. That number is 802 now.
The quote is what the quote was. It can't be changed any more than the Gettysburg Address can be changed to "12 score years ago...."
The Pokemon cartoon has been on the air for 20 years. Let that sink in. Two whole decades.
Like that Magikarp hat.
Crash Course Music would be awesome!
Has Pokemon extended so far that it now has an educational arm? This honestly felt like a puff piece more than an educational episode...
Gotta Catch Them All !!!
My junior high school had to ban the Pokemon TCG because it was a distraction. Also banned: Tamagotchi and yo-yos. I miss the 90s.
I gotta love how Yokai Watch's popularity made Pokémon pick up the pace when it was falling on its laurels, while Digimon in its existance never made Pokémon move an inch from where it is.
The 640-entry national dex really shows the age of this script and dated it to Gen. V, despite the video showing Rowlet, a Gen. VII starter. During the production of this show the national dex have 721 entries.
I've always lucked out because my sister and I both love pokemon, but have different tastes in almost every topic. So we never had a problem with getting from the other game. I got Diamond, she got Pearl. I got SS, she got HG. I got Y, she got X, ect. We both got Platinum, ect. She's got Sun, I'm getting Moon.
Also, at my work, a kid came in with a Lugia toy and was shocked that I knew what it was. He was seven, all I've been playing longer than he's been alive. But I was about his age when I started.
My first Pokemon game was also Pokemon pinball! lol
thats funny that you mention about kids finding the rules complicated, when i was a kid the only person who was any fun to play against was my older sister because none of the kids even acted like energy cards existed, and would never pick up cards from their deck
At the time this video aired, there are 802 Pokemon, although not all of them are attainable in game yet.
vice principal mike hunt. lmfao.
I only ever played 3 versions. Gold, Ruby, and Sapphire.
Try the originals. I never played past gen 4 - Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. The original games are really something to experience if you want to understand why kids went nuts back in the 90s. (There's tons of glitches and crappy graphics tho.)
7:24: 802 Pokémon to be exact.
I like the show
When's the Crash Course on Fighting Games?
To my knowledge, the only thing he missed was the Pixelmon mod for Minecraft, though obviously not made by the original company. Thousands of people play that too. I've played all of the original format games, up to the GBA versions, as well as the two for n64, the rescue squad, and the card one, also fro gba, I think. I also saw a bit of the first tv series. I loved it, back in the day. My favorites are still Rapidash, and Sableye.
As of now there are 802 pokemon, if I'm correct.
Dingosilver57 you are
I owned pokémon blue as a kid and went to visit my dad one summer. His neighbor had a kid about my age who had pokémon red. His mom said he had to do something and I made all the trade evolutions to "catch em all" while he was away. I think it was like 354 at the time, not sure. I just had to get that off my chest.
Gotta catch em all, except now there's like 800+ Pokemon, so maybe I'll just catch whatever I can 😭😂
YAAAAAAAAA POKEEEEEEMMMMMMOOOOOONNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
