    Overall this was a great video, but I think things were a bit inconsistent with the "gender-neutral" aspect. You ruled out Clefairy and Jigglypuff for being pink, and then you mentioned Marill's blue coloring was too focused on boys. However, you called several more blue Pokemon throughout the list gender-neutral (such as Shinx, Riolu, and Froakie) without any acknowledgement of their color scheme. To me it seems your definition of gender-neutral wasn't specific enough, since coloring was only a focus of a few.

      It would be pretty boring if I went through every Pokemon on the list and mentioned whether or not their color scheme was gender neutral or not. Each Pokemon on the list has a balance of things that put them on the list. If a Pokemon has a non gender neutral color, like Riolu, you'll notice that they have a lot of the other attributes that would make em a good mascot. I just didn't want to say the same thing over and over again, so you'll notice I brought up the color scheme numerous times in the beginning because I wanted it to be clear to the viewers. For example, I mentioned a bunch of times how evolution is important in the beginning of the video, but didn't mention it for Buizel, not because I wasn't thinking about it, but because by that point of the video the viewer should understand that point. It's not inconsistency, just omission, so the video won't get repetitive. - I also didn't "rule out Clefairy and Jigglypuff", just mentioned their "fatal flaw" like I did with basically every other Pokemon, which in their case, was their gender non-neutrality. Glad you enjoyed the video though :)

  • @QuintessentiallyQuirky
    @QuintessentiallyQuirky 6 ปีที่แล้ว +164

    I vote Eevee as franchise mascot. Evolution is one of the franchise's recognizable traits and Eevee emphasizes that point. It's cuter than Pikachu IMO, especially when you can hear it giggle throughout the short that stars itself and its evolved forms. Additionally, Serena and May owned one, not to mention Gary m-f'in Oak and Virgil, which the latter had an entire team composed of Eeveelutions as well as Eevee itself. And perhaps the best part is Virgil's Eevee earned him the win in the Unova League.

    • @adventurerisrad
      @adventurerisrad 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      But the thing is that Eevee, first of all, is four legged. Second, the color scheme is a bit boring. Third, it seems more like a pet than a partner.

      Reznov Gardev Eevee's design wouldn't stand out enough to be recognized as a Pokemon, it's too normal, whereas many other types of Pokemon have striking colors or diverse designs. That's one of the biggest things holding Eevee back.

      Rizizum Have it like Red's Eevee in the Pokemon Adventures manga. It was genetically altered and can change between its forms (at least Jolteon, Vaporeon and Flareon until it permanently evolved into Espeon)

    I think Eevee makes a great mascot (and thank god for "Let's go Eevee!"). The reason is Eevee is genderneutral. It's brown but cute and fluffly. But the main selling point is the fact that eevee is a special snowflake, being able to evolve into so many different forms.

  • @swaggysuperswag
    @swaggysuperswag 6 ปีที่แล้ว +63

    I think minccino should be up for consideration
    Its cute but it can be fierce, has a stylised tail, moves very similar to pikachu and is around the same size
    However because its grey and its design it could be mistaken for an animal, not a pokemon and because its a normal type it may not be as ‘cool’ as pikachu but it can learn several moves that are similar/the same as pikachu like thunderbolt, aqua tail, iron tail, seed bomb and last resort
    One of my favourite pokemon ever!

  • @Thomas-ju4hf
    @Thomas-ju4hf 6 ปีที่แล้ว +343

    Imo Eevee can be a perfect mascot for Pokemon because:
    -its a pokemon with different evolutions which represents the diversity of types and differencies of pokemons
    -The appearance is cute and simple
    -it can be useful now in strategy with his exclusive Z-move and Baton Pass
    and its also one of the most popular and iconic pokemon in the world with Pikachu and Charizard
    (sorry if my english is bad)

    I think you rather skirted past Eevee without saying much about it. You say it looks, "too cute," but aside from that , it's EEVEE. I think beyond much of any doubt that Eevee would be the best Pokémon mascot contendant other than Pikachu.

    • @BussyBuster69
      @BussyBuster69 6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      I'm inclined to agree, Pikachu is no less cute and no more fierce than Eevee. Plus as the Pokemon the represents the concept of evolution one of the core concepts of the entire series Eevee deserves way more consideration than it was given.

    • @truegreen7
      @truegreen7  6 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      It's just too cute and fluffy. It would alienate a bunch of younger fans. It has no elemental powers (until evolution) which is a core concept of Pokemon. It's brown. (not a good idea to have a brown mascot for a children's game) It's a pure quadraped so it can't do the wide range of movements that Pikachu can do. There are just so reasons, that I went over in this video, so I thought people could understand why other Pokemon that weren't analysed in this video wouldn't work.

      Eevee would have the same problem as Riolu. It evolves via Friendship (Umbreon and Espeon), which means it can come off at is not being happy with its trainer.

    • @wormiestwood682

      Who says the trainer would have to keep it as an Eevee? The Pikachu not evolving thing was a thing only with Ash. Eevee would most likely evolve into one of the seven and it could work as it's gender neutral. Who says they have to do human tasks? Quadropeds could just go on their hind legs or jump up to grab something. They could do what happened in the manga where the Eevee owned by Red initally could change between the multiple forms.

    honestly, i think mimikyu could be the mascot next to pikachu, since mimikyu is cute but creepy, and also a lil bit fierce, also mimikyu is mimicking pikachu.

  • @lokid.r-k-9608
    @lokid.r-k-9608 6 ปีที่แล้ว +47

    We should be thankful that Pikachu is so popular. A lot of people forget that Pikachu being a mascot is the biggest reason why pokemon stayed relevant throughout these years. Calling Pikachu Overrated is true, but that's a good thing.

    • @NotTowbe

      You're kind of right.
      If Eevee was the mascot from the beginning, I'd say that Pokemon would even be slightly BIGGER now -- it's more diverse/unique/interesting, and it has appeals to everyone.. for example, Jolteon & Umbreon are cool, Glaceon & Espeon are majestic, Vaporeon & Flareon & Sylveon are cute, etc.
      Eevee is also the most popular Pokemon, including its evolutions, and has the most merchandise other than Pikachu, and has been featured as a starter/star pokemon in the most games!

  • @ultimatic2919
    @ultimatic2919 6 ปีที่แล้ว +26

    I think snivy would be a good mascot. It's pretty gender neutral, it's green so it's not more boyish or more girlish, and I think it's equal parts cute and cool. But that's just my opinion, what do you all think?

    • @leilanivaughan-williams3038
      @leilanivaughan-williams3038 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @randomdude5955
      @randomdude5955 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think that snivy is a good choice because it looks like it would disobey Ash in the beginning, just like Pikachu. But the problem would begin once it evolves into a Serperior. It would lose it limbs and would be eliminated for that reason.

    • @ShinyKelp
      @ShinyKelp 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Probably what would hold him back is his evolutions. Servine is kind of meh, and Serperior lacks limbs, which isn't good for a mascot.

    - gender neutral design
    - cute design
    - could NOT be recognised as anything else
    - final form is pretty tough
    - not to hard to obtain if you put effort into it

    IMO Espeon / Umbreon. That may be biased since they're my favorite Pokemon, but they're actually strong, cute, final evolutions, and can work a lot better as a bond of friendship pokemon since they only evolve when friendship is full. Much better than a yellow rat. :P

    I think Litten or Torracat would be a great mascot. At my school, it’s a favorite and what most people choose over Rowlet and Poppilio. He’s Gender Neutral and a badass pokemon in general. Its a cat, which is most appealing to girls, and he has a masculine color scheme. He’s cute and deadly, and easily recognisable. If not him then Eevee would also be great

    Mimikyu could work as a mascot, the only thing that might not work is the disguise. It could however, potentially work as some kind of a representation of Pokemon clothes designers as it is a creative Pokemon (it made the disguise, so it could also possibly make clothes for trainers).

  • @theSato
    @theSato 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Eevee could easily replace Pikachu! Here's why:
    1: It's been around since the beginning
    2: It's as popular, or more popular, than Pikachu among any actual fans
    3: It is cute just like Pikachu (if not moreso)
    4: It is not biased in favor of any one typing; it can be whatever the user wants for their team
    5: In general it is one of, if not the, most interesting, unique and diverse Pokemon
    6: It's been features in a lot of games prominently (Gary's Eevee in yellow, the Eeveelution Kimono girls in gen 2, its obtainable in almost every game, its the starter in Conquest, and Umbreon/Espeon are the main Pokemon in XD: Gale of Darkness)
    7: It's a gender neutral pokemon - although Sylveon could be seen as feminine, and Jolteon as masculine, in general there is no gender bias for them
    8: It's generally seen as a "good" Pokemon - very few 'bad guys' ever use an Eevee, only ever Umbreon, and rarely
    9: There's tons and tons of Eevee merchandise, only rivaled by Pikachu in that regard
    10: All the different evolutions are loved for different reasons -- Sylveon & Vaporeon for being cute, Glaceon & Espeon for being majestic, Umbreon & Jolteon for being cute, etc.
    I could go on, but I think this is more than enough reasons to say that Eevee is the best for for the mascot! Let me know if you have any points against it, or things to add!

    • @bijtmntongaf

    • @randomdudeonyoutube3504
      @randomdudeonyoutube3504 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Late but eevee has problems going for it
      1. It has way to many evolutions people will just grab it then evolve it then forget about it
      2. Pikachu just has a better coloring, yellow is just the perfect color because it’s the color of the franchises logo while brown isn’t really as appealing
      3. Like the person above me said eevee it’s quadruped and one the reasons why pikachu is the mascot is due to the anime, it can’t make any of the fierce movements that pikachu can
      Eevee would be a good mascot but just not as good as pikachu

      Pokémon Master being cute is subjective, but at least buizel hasn't been seen by all of us thousands of times which makes it at least more of an interesting candidate (besides fitting in all of the categories)

    Buizel is definitely a top favorite of mine. Eevee and it's evaluations are first (but out of them all Eevee is actually top, since I was 8) and then after the Eevee's then it's buizel. And then in no order after that I also like Pikachu, furret, and poplio.

    2:35 I love the way he phrased that without sounding sexist in anyway, because it’s true, I also love how everyone was nice about it and aren’t trying to cancel him on Twitter or some crap
