Okay, milcery evolving from spinning is so cute. It's cream, when you spinn/whip cream it gets fluffy and turns into whipped cream. Which is basically it's Evo.
To me it makes sense and is a nice little detail. If your baking something you clearly got mix the ingredients. How do you mimic that with movements? Ya spin. But still it's nice that there seems to be some more experimental evolutions that aren't "Give your this Pokemon this one item to evolve it" cause it adds a little more charm into what may of otherwise been another within 812+ Pokemon.
A small thing I thought was adorable: When you play with and cook for your Pokémon, you'll get more exp and your Pokémon will get closer to you. This said, when you get to a certain point in battle, and the opponent gets a crit or something of the sort, and KO's your Pokémon, sometimes it'll stop at 1. After, a heart will float out from them and text will pop up reading "[Pokémon name] hung in there so you wouldn't feel sad." Which saved my skin because I'm doing a blind nuzlocke and he was my MVP
I wanted to cry because that happened to me and my Cinderace and Excadrill, I didn't know how that happened but I was so happy and it was so wholesome-
I'm building up my bond with Scorchy (my scorbunny) for that very reason I've found its ability to learn fighting type moves (well so far just one) invaluable
I would argue that some of the Megas were a mistake. Stuff like Mega Kangaskhan and Mega Rayquaza snapping the game and even competitive play in half is clearly a design flaw. I still prefer Megas as a design philosophy, but hopefully, Dynamaxing will keep things more balanced.
Nicolas Warren Dynamaxing is very useless. There are many fights where normal pokemon do the same damage of a dynamax pokemon. I’d rather have them balance Megas and Z-Moves rather than introduce bs that no one will use.
Except the super hardcores that could literally only use like Mega Kangaskahn and/or Mega Rayquaza, and the Primals (Groudon and Kyogre) Like there was like 3 or maybe 4 more pretty good megas. But Mega Kangaskahn was broken. They needed to nerf Mega Kangaskahn, and buff some others, and ofc add new ones. Giantmax or whatever the stupid shit is, is stupid.
Why is the title called "10 things that the game doesn't tell you" when these are things that you find out as you play the game not any secret things that you cant find out by yourself.
I am very much so aware that this is a year late but I checked Sobble's and Drizzile's moveset and they only learn U-turn at lvl 24 for Sobble and lvl 30 for Drizzile which is a bit of over lvling and Scorbunnys entire evolution line can learn U-turn tho from Tm
I know its very easy to lvl up your pokemon. Im saying that if you want to use Sobble/Drizzile against the 1st gym leader, you have to over lvl and if your lvling your pokemon almost 10 lvls higher than the opponents then I dont think you need to worry about getting a super effective hit.
I guess because you can keep playing that, thus it adds to the content. If you've done everything you could do in a pokemon game, you'll buy the next one faster.
I don't remember if it was Masuda or Ohmori (probably Masuda), but he said that they don't make the Battle Frontier anymore because children nowadays have smartphones with access to a lot of games and won't dedicate much of their time to Pokémon, yadda yadda, basically: "If only a minority of people will use X feature, it's not worth including it".
I adored the battle frontier in pokemon emerald, and was really looking forward to seeing it in pokemon alpha sapphire and omega ruby. Only to find that when I got there, it was mostly un-built, with the tired battle tower we have had in every single game in the past. I really liked the unique battle rules pokemon emerald's battle frontier had, and would love for it to make a come-back.

Do you mind clarifying that? Is it the combination of battling and catching or is it just battling? I've been trying to do as much spoiler free research as I can....
@@crystaljewel8906 It's just battling. Gamefreak released information about how Shiny hunting works and how to get Brilliant Pokemon. The only thing you need to know is that the charts for the shiny chances for battling pokemon are always constant (no combos that increase shinies exist). The other thing to note is that if you chain the shiny that you're looking for, the Pokemon will end up appearing more.
Iirc a guy in another video explained that it is 500 battles with a single species (which dont have to be after one another) listed in the pokedex as fought and then a catch combo where you catch 25+ Pokemon of that species in a row for the highest chances of getting a shiny. Combined with the shiny charm that would be the highest odds. So basically you cant go for random shinies that way anymore but instead have to farm one species at a time. Edit: you still can go for random shinies with enough luck I guess.
Yeah this was just an untrue comment on his part. Brock was the first gym leader regardless of which Pokémon you started with. I remember how much of a breeze it was with my Squirtle
That’s okay. For the Ponyta you can get it via the surprise trade. I got mine like that. I even got the three starters like that. For the gym leader that’s bad luck but don’t worry about Ponyta 😉
@- FrogGurl - dude i posted the comment a year ago 😭😭 its not my favorite, i dont like how fast the main story is, and i dont like that it was so much more expensive for less content, but i still think other people can enjoy it
2:48 actually the game does tell you this, when you are walking on route 5 you'll see one of those red information boards, it tells you that auras around pokemon are better. So if you didn't know that then it's kinda on you for not reading the information boards
@SnowPea just so you know, some people don't pay attention to those so don't go around making others feel like crap for not reading those or seeing where the board is.
I have loved this game so far. It's been a ton of fun. I was able to do a raid with a friend, trade a couple pokemon, and just enjoy seeing it on the big screen so our son could watch, and play along too. It's so much fun to react so excitedly when he catches anything... like... his 8th wingull... but to still react like he caught a shiny Mewtwo has been great! It's really instilling an enjoyment of the game for him as well, I hope we can always share.
Actually, if you're willing to do a bit of grinding, Drizzile - Sobble's evolution - learns the bug-type move U-turn at level 30. So you'd be okay for the first gym if you did a bit of leveling.
Being able to learn old moves from pokemon you caught at a high level is the best thing they've added to pokemon outside of the wild area which is basically a safari zone that levels with you
It's a bit flawed saying that in order to increase the chance on finding Brilliant Pokemon, you need to keep catching them. You don't. You just have to keep battling them. The more battle encounters you have with a certain species of Pokemon, the higher the chance of encountering Brilliant versions.
Charizard (Gold) > Copperajah (Silver) > Milcery (Bronze) > Wobbuffet > Koffing. I've only made the Wobbuffet class curry when alone and seem to always make the Milcery whenever I'm at another trainer's camp. Not sure if I need to add more berries or what.
6:18 when you said Zackian I about died oh my gosh. Zacian (Zā-she-un) I guess it’s fine if you want to say it weird, but that’s the official pronunciation, so now you know 👍🏻
There have been multiple official pronunciation for multiple pokemon from multiple generation. Now, gaze at the official anime, and weep, as they screw up the official pronunciation!
Missed something with remembering moves. The moves you can remember aren't just ones that you replaced or skipped over. They are every move that your pokemon could have ever learned up to that point. So it doesn't matter what level you get your Eevee to evolve at, you won't miss any possible moves.
Depending on the moves sets you pick for the fire type you can beat every gym leader except for the water and dragon with just the right moves. I recommend one normal, 2 fire, and one fighting move to increase your chances of beating your opponents in the gyms.
@@paleoleft from what the Nintendo article said the combo is for fishing only and effects your chances of getting a brilliant pokemon. So yeah it does still matter technically... but not for shines or non fishable pokemon so it doesn't have as much use as people thought it did
WittyPractitioner no it still counts, not encounter combo but every 100 you deafeat the higher the chance, and if your catch 25 in a row your chance gets skyrocketed.
So far I like the new experiences like the Dynamax-Battles, the wild area or the new Pokémon. What I personally not dig is the fact that you have to pay for a membership to use the online service like Online-Trading. In previous games I could easily trade online for free to get Pokémon which I can´t get otherwise because I can´t find people to trade localy.
I have two fun facts I found on accident. 1: There is, for some reason, an animation of throwing a pokeball at a trainer’s Pokémon. (Thanks drift) 2: In Galar mine No. 2, if you whistle in the stunfisk areas (pressing the left joystick), they will pop out like a bear trap, letting you know if that’s a Pokéball, or an fake one on a stunfisk
David Evans yeah, he was just saying the shiny percentage goes up with those Pokemon being caught as well. So the most efficient way is combo catching the same type of Pokemon.
Haven't finished the video yet, but Scorbunny is great for a first run pretty much all the way through, not just the first gym: About half of the gyms consist of types weak to fire. The only two the evolution line may struggle against are the ground and water type gyms. However, most Pokemon in the ground gym are weak to fire, but Scorbunny's evolution line is weak to majority of the moves used in that gym, so a double-edge sword essentially. That, and it learns a handful of fighting type moves which do well mixed with fire type, in my experience. Just thought I'd throw this out there.
Gba games where the most balanced between battles and non cramp inducing non-battle content i love HG as nr next kid that had GoldN but some of that stuff is just flat out party game spinn off material...
@@cdixon198 try using 'myboy' emulator app from google Play Store. I use it and works great and is stable. I didn't had any issues playing any GBA game on it. Works smooth.
*Did you guys know that if you press the right side joystick like how you would press one of the buttons you can expand your view of the wild area as you move and if you press the left side joystick like how you would press one of the buttons you can whistle to call a wild and a flying overhead head pokemon to get their attention and run towards you to encounter over-world pokemon easier than just chasing them?*
The Move tutor also has something most probably dont know, if a pokemon learns a move from a TR and forgets it, they can relearn it at any time from the move reminder guy as if they naturally learned it from level up
Dataminers have found that the Kanto and Alola Starters as well as most box legendaries and mythicals are in the game, most likely to be released as event specific pokemon later.
Honestly, your video is awesome! I have been playing pokemon Sword addictively on my Nintendo switch and i have never played pokemon apart from dabbling in pokemon Go at one point and I figured, "this probably makes sense to people who have played the previous versions" lol! Thank you for this video! Everything now makes sense
Apparently, Mew is currently only gettable by transferring it from a new Pokeball Plus controller. I'm a little disappointed that Sw/Sh has no amiibo interaction -- would have been nice if scanning a pokemon amiibo got you a random item or X amount of money per amiibo per day (or maybe a random item from a smaller group of items.)
I know this is from 2 years ago, but I love this idea! Imagine legendary Pokémon amiibos that give you a masterball, or eeveelution ones that give you the relevant evolution item.
@@sinchez9678 yup I think the idea is awesome, specific ambiio could give you a free Pokémon to chance or you could get various items such as for example Poké Balls of any variants that can be found in the current games or received in the games along with mints and candies. Master Balls could be a possibility but an extremely very low chance unless the ambiio is like a Legendary or Mythical Pokémon then it would be a higher chance. Also fossils and evolution items would be great options too but also vitamins and PP Ups
I’ve liked it so far but I haven’t gotten very far in the game yet. It does seem like it’s a great deal easier than previous gens. Grinding to level a Pokémon doesn’t take as long as it use too. Not that it’s a bad thing.
I hate it. I use to love the sense of accomplishment completely obliterating gym after gym because I spent time constantly training each of my Pokémon to a ridiculous level. Sure it was tedious and Long but the satisfaction of just owning every trainer around you was soo worth it lmao. I don’t feel the same satisfaction with the newer versions since I took time for each of my Pokémon to train and evolve them individually before. And exp share kinda ruins the joy of leveling up my Pokémon and forming a relationship with them individually
Sophie T Lol I would trade with you...if I had an online membership. Planning on getting one sometime in the next couples months though :p I would say message me later but TH-cam doesn’t do that anymore I don’t think :(
Is it weird I hope this game bombs so they can take extra care with the next game and bring back National dex, mega evolution, battle frontier and Pokemon followers with multiple regions and capability to catch every Pokemon? All they need is a budget from after the 90s and a bigger team, which we know they can afford. A decent production time couldn't hurt either. Wishful thinking I know.
Idk. I'm havin a great time. Also I really dont want megas back. It was neat for a bit but just got so obnoxious after a while. At least dynamaxing doesn't happen in EVERY battle in the game. And I'm fine with not having all pokemon. Sure some pokemon i liked got cut, but I'll take quality over quantity. Also fuck having to balance 800+ pokemon. I think Gamefreak has done pretty damn well with their first try on the Switch.
A lot of people didn't like the games but I think its the best game yet. The dynamax thing is a little weird but hey they're trying something new. Other than that they've added so many things that ease frustrations without making the game too easy. The grind in the early games is frustrating these days so it's a nice upgrade. And the exp from catching is like a mix between pokemon lets go and traditional!
Aside from the night and day cycle introduced in Gold and Silver I hope they also add a mechanic where the game would match the weather where you're from.
tbh that would be pretty cool, but it would make getting weather exclusive wild area pokemon a pain. instead of just changing your date to lock the weather, you'd probably have to wait for a while. and imagine trying to get pokemon that only can be found during snowstorms in a really hot place...
@@c_alam1ty here in Canada, we would get both. Only need to wait a couple of months. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. IT NEVER ACTUALLY STAYS ONE SEASON THE WHOLE TIME. So, every week we would get different climates.

Yeah this was just an untrue comment on his part. Brock was the first gym leader regardless of which Pokémon you started with. I remember how much of a breeze it was with my Squirtle
Things they didn't tell you: Furret was getting too popular for walking
The moment you just spent 60 dollars on pokemon sword, thinking galarian ponyta and the ghost gym leader were in it...
That’s okay. For the Ponyta you can get it via the surprise trade. I got mine like that. I even got the three starters like that. For the gym leader that’s bad luck but don’t worry about Ponyta 😉

2:48 actually the game does tell you this, when you are walking on route 5 you'll see one of those red information boards, it tells you that auras around pokemon are better. So if you didn't know that then it's kinda on you for not reading the information boards
@SnowPea just so you know, some people don't pay attention to those so don't go around making others feel like crap for not reading those or seeing where the board is.

@@valkner4091 o
I have loved this game so far. It's been a ton of fun. I was able to do a raid with a friend, trade a couple pokemon, and just enjoy seeing it on the big screen so our son could watch, and play along too. It's so much fun to react so excitedly when he catches anything... like... his 8th wingull... but to still react like he caught a shiny Mewtwo has been great! It's really instilling an enjoyment of the game for him as well, I hope we can always share.
Actually, if you're willing to do a bit of grinding, Drizzile - Sobble's evolution - learns the bug-type move U-turn at level 30. So you'd be okay for the first gym if you did a bit of leveling.
Thats 10 levels above his ace so thats a bit lame personally I play with level cap
I've been killing those max aura Pokemon cause I thought they only give you watts :/
Same xD
Help, me too
Same 😐
Jonathan Aguilar killing them also give you watts?
You can catch for watts too
Being able to learn old moves from pokemon you caught at a high level is the best thing they've added to pokemon outside of the wild area which is basically a safari zone that levels with you
It's a bit flawed saying that in order to increase the chance on finding Brilliant Pokemon, you need to keep catching them.
You don't. You just have to keep battling them. The more battle encounters you have with a certain species of Pokemon, the higher the chance of encountering Brilliant versions.
do you have to KO or can u encounter and dip?
Falcon has such a good voice it sounds great even when he’s sick
Gamefreak: hey want a shiny sand slash? Just grab and alolan one
The first curry i cooked was awful lol
Shockingly mine was decent. I looked at my character and said you actually liked that?
Mine was good
Same here
Ive yet to make a bad curry in over 150 recipes and i never looked any recipies up either
Charizard (Gold) > Copperajah (Silver) > Milcery (Bronze) > Wobbuffet > Koffing.
I've only made the Wobbuffet class curry when alone and seem to always make the Milcery whenever I'm at another trainer's camp. Not sure if I need to add more berries or what.
6:18 when you said Zackian I about died oh my gosh. Zacian (Zā-she-un) I guess it’s fine if you want to say it weird, but that’s the official pronunciation, so now you know 👍🏻
There have been multiple official pronunciation for multiple pokemon from multiple generation.
Now, gaze at the official anime, and weep, as they screw up the official pronunciation!
Missed something with remembering moves.
The moves you can remember aren't just ones that you replaced or skipped over. They are every move that your pokemon could have ever learned up to that point. So it doesn't matter what level you get your Eevee to evolve at, you won't miss any possible moves.
0:34
WTF is that, is that a love-child between a mudkip and a turtwig? Because it sure looks like one.
That's Chewtle and he's adorable
The funny thing is... I knew exactly who you were talking about despite not having watched the video!
Who you calling a pinhead
Oh. I was saying squirtle and turtwig but that def works too.
it is USPPOSED to be the prevo of drednaw...and ain;'t the worst abomination in the game
LOL I've been killing aura Pokes like crazy
rgr010 me too! I wish I knew that earlier!
Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
Right? Harvesting those sweet Watts. All that NPC nonsense dialog we have to put up with, a little headsup sure would have been nice.
It pays to talk to most of the people in the game. I was doing the same thing until someone in the wild area told me what the aura is 🤷🏽♀️
I caught a aura Wooloo as my first pokemon
Depending on the moves sets you pick for the fire type you can beat every gym leader except for the water and dragon with just the right moves. I recommend one normal, 2 fire, and one fighting move to increase your chances of beating your opponents in the gyms.
6:22 "Each version also has a unique Gym Leader, which is new for the series."
*awkwardly looks at Black and White...*
It's different in this case because it's different types not different leaders but same type
Jacob Fransson Ah fair.
Even further awkwardly looks at Emerald...
@@kajickuca2594 same typing, same gym, different leaders. It would be a different story if it was different types
Allister is better
Try and change my mind
Combo doesn’t matter in this game, just encountering it and also cathing or feinting it.
combo still matters lmao
@@paleoleft from what the Nintendo article said the combo is for fishing only and effects your chances of getting a brilliant pokemon. So yeah it does still matter technically... but not for shines or non fishable pokemon so it doesn't have as much use as people thought it did
WittyPractitioner no it still counts, not encounter combo but every 100 you deafeat the higher the chance, and if your catch 25 in a row your chance gets skyrocketed.
A lot of 90's references in here, and I actually like it. Good pick on the 90's references.
when you talk about shiny pokemon. all the pictures you showed weren't the actual shineis fyi. those were just like a fan re color
But the point was made, shhhh.
I will prank you know...
So far I like the new experiences like the Dynamax-Battles, the wild area or the new Pokémon. What I personally not dig is the fact that you have to pay for a membership to use the online service like Online-Trading. In previous games I could easily trade online for free to get Pokémon which I can´t get otherwise because I can´t find people to trade localy.
I have two fun facts I found on accident.
1: There is, for some reason, an animation of throwing a pokeball at a trainer’s Pokémon. (Thanks drift)
2: In Galar mine No. 2, if you whistle in the stunfisk areas (pressing the left joystick), they will pop out like a bear trap, letting you know if that’s a Pokéball, or an fake one on a stunfisk
The shiny ratio doesn’t have to be caught , it can also be knock outs
David Evans yeah, he was just saying the shiny percentage goes up with those Pokemon being caught as well. So the most efficient way is combo catching the same type of Pokemon.
ThunderDrummer where is this proven?
JacobJewfro idk. Just saying what we said.

I thought that game was pretty fun actually and I loved the art.
... I miss games like that one.
Haven't finished the video yet, but Scorbunny is great for a first run pretty much all the way through, not just the first gym: About half of the gyms consist of types weak to fire. The only two the evolution line may struggle against are the ground and water type gyms. However, most Pokemon in the ground gym are weak to fire, but Scorbunny's evolution line is weak to majority of the moves used in that gym, so a double-edge sword essentially. That, and it learns a handful of fighting type moves which do well mixed with fire type, in my experience. Just thought I'd throw this out there.
And here I'm still enjoying Pokemon GBA games on my phone with GBA emulator.
Gba games where the most balanced between battles and non cramp inducing non-battle content
i love HG as nr next kid that had GoldN but some of that stuff is just flat out party game spinn off material...
It doesn’t work anymore on my phone so I had to upgrade lol
@@cdixon198 try using 'myboy' emulator app from google Play Store. I use it and works great and is stable. I didn't had any issues playing any GBA game on it. Works smooth.
Just recently finished Emerald randomizer. I had a blast!
Wow learning about that aura thing is cool
I literally walked past many in my journey and thought they were nothing great and walked away
*Did you guys know that if you press the right side joystick like how you would press one of the buttons you can expand your view of the wild area as you move and if you press the left side joystick like how you would press one of the buttons you can whistle to call a wild and a flying overhead head pokemon to get their attention and run towards you to encounter over-world pokemon easier than just chasing them?*
"It's a pokemon game, it's not that hard"
Togedemaru from Ultra sun and moon: Am I a joke to you?
Just use a fire move on it.

My level 60 xurkitree that a got from a trade: haha no
True story btw
Excuse me but Pokemon conquest was like the best spin off game ever
It's my favorite Pokemon game period!
See, i went Sobble, but caught a Yamper, and mained that sweet little electric type up to level 80 by the time i hit the 5th gym...
The Move tutor also has something most probably dont know, if a pokemon learns a move from a TR and forgets it, they can relearn it at any time from the move reminder guy as if they naturally learned it from level up
nicee!!
This is SO good to know. Thank you
Chances of a shiny don’t go up from how many you’ve caught. It goes up from how many you’ve *battled*. Check your Pokédex and it’ll tell you.
Its both

Thank you for this video! Everything now makes sense
You know it’s bad when a video like this is over 5 minutes.
Edit: I take it back, most of this video is filler.
Apparently, Mew is currently only gettable by transferring it from a new Pokeball Plus controller.
I'm a little disappointed that Sw/Sh has no amiibo interaction -- would have been nice if scanning a pokemon amiibo got you a random item or X amount of money per amiibo per day (or maybe a random item from a smaller group of items.)
I know this is from 2 years ago, but I love this idea! Imagine legendary Pokémon amiibos that give you a masterball, or eeveelution ones that give you the relevant evolution item.
@@sinchez9678 yup I think the idea is awesome, specific ambiio could give you a free Pokémon to chance or you could get various items such as for example Poké Balls of any variants that can be found in the current games or received in the games along with mints and candies.
Master Balls could be a possibility but an extremely very low chance unless the ambiio is like a Legendary or Mythical Pokémon then it would be a higher chance.
Also fossils and evolution items would be great options too but also vitamins and PP Ups

9:38 you can actually get some of those Pokémon from the dlc if you don’t have the other Pokémon games
I’ve liked it so far but I haven’t gotten very far in the game yet. It does seem like it’s a great deal easier than previous gens. Grinding to level a Pokémon doesn’t take as long as it use too. Not that it’s a bad thing.
Yeah. Cant figure out if I like the easier leveling more or no, but on a positive note I can try out more of the roster.
It's super easy to level with the dens lolol
I'd prefer it if it had a little more challenge or at least let me turn the Exp share off.
I hate it. I use to love the sense of accomplishment completely obliterating gym after gym because I spent time constantly training each of my Pokémon to a ridiculous level. Sure it was tedious and Long but the satisfaction of just owning every trainer around you was soo worth it lmao. I don’t feel the same satisfaction with the newer versions since I took time for each of my Pokémon to train and evolve them individually before. And exp share kinda ruins the joy of leveling up my Pokémon and forming a relationship with them individually
@@cloudstrife746 Unpopular fact, if you hate grinding your Pokemon, you're bad at the game.

Is it weird I hope this game bombs so they can take extra care with the next game and bring back National dex, mega evolution, battle frontier and Pokemon followers with multiple regions and capability to catch every Pokemon? All they need is a budget from after the 90s and a bigger team, which we know they can afford. A decent production time couldn't hurt either.
Wishful thinking I know.

Idk. I'm havin a great time. Also I really dont want megas back. It was neat for a bit but just got so obnoxious after a while. At least dynamaxing doesn't happen in EVERY battle in the game. And I'm fine with not having all pokemon. Sure some pokemon i liked got cut, but I'll take quality over quantity. Also fuck having to balance 800+ pokemon. I think Gamefreak has done pretty damn well with their first try on the Switch.

Bruh 5Ds
ITS TIME TO D D D D D D D D D D D D D D D D D DUELLL
A lot of people didn't like the games but I think its the best game yet. The dynamax thing is a little weird but hey they're trying something new. Other than that they've added so many things that ease frustrations without making the game too easy. The grind in the early games is frustrating these days so it's a nice upgrade. And the exp from catching is like a mix between pokemon lets go and traditional!
Aside from the night and day cycle introduced in Gold and Silver I hope they also add a mechanic where the game would match the weather where you're from.
tbh that would be pretty cool, but it would make getting weather exclusive wild area pokemon a pain. instead of just changing your date to lock the weather, you'd probably have to wait for a while. and imagine trying to get pokemon that only can be found during snowstorms in a really hot place...
