I know it’s not a type specialty but I always thought as gladion as a “friendship evolution” specialist, he uses Crobat, lucario and silvally in almost all his battles and “the edgy guy learning to love” is a big enough trope to make that work, slap on a blissey, alolan persian and a togekiss and that’s a pretty solid team for him
Dont forget that he has an umbreon
you are very observant and creative.
Plus, Michael already made Barry a Honey Tree specialist rather than a Type specialist. So he definitely could’ve changed Gladion’s outfit to red, pink, and white, and given him a Friendship Evolutions Gym team.
I see your point. But, The Dark Type fits him, because he's had a rough past, uses a lot of dark type Pokemon, lives on the streets, is associated with an Evil Team, wears dark clothing and is an Edgelord, through and through, unlike certain others.
@@trainerflowey2729 Well, maybe his Gym Team would be a combination of Dark-Types and Friendship Evos.
(what do you think that would result in? Both a full Friendship Evo team and a team that is a mixture of Friendship Evos and Dark-Types?)
"I came to your birthday party!"
"You broke in and stole my cake."

Nice name
@@ElFlores1984 Thanks
I thought he was going to say "at least I remembered" next
@@J.Blazer lmao
@Razor Leafy sorry man
I think for Hugh, an interesting option would be Dark Type. He spends much of the game hunting Team Plasma in an attempt to retrieve his sister's stolen Purrloin, later found to a Liepard. I think it would have been cool for him to base his gym team off that, since it's more plot relevant than anything.
I was gonna comment this
@@humanoidpeacock4033 so... Krookodile, Hydreigon, Scraffty, Liepard, Weavile and Shiftry makes it a godamn good leader.
OMG I just saw your comment months after I proposed the same idea in my own comment. My team was Krookodile, Drapion, Weavile, Umbreon, Mandibuzz, and Liepard/Absol.
This
wally being a psychic gym leader honestly has more layers to it, since he was a sickly boy who was always hindered by his sickness, but by his sheer love and interest in pokemon, after catching one and going on an adventure on his own, grows greatly and even overcomes his own sickness.
and psychic types are strong against poison because its said a strong enough mind can overcome any physical barrier.
all of this is to say, wally had very strong power of will himself.
but if you look at the manga, he gets a Flygon and his starter is a Sceptile. I would say Dragon or Grass type
He also gets a Ralts as his Starter, which could be a good baseline for what he'd specialize in
"However, I've decided to make him a grass type gym leader for one big reason: ..."
We know it's for Sceptile, and it's okay
I would’ve been insulted if he didn’t give him sceptile lol
@@pitbullseatkids2682 sceptile is my 2nd favourite Pokemon so I would be insulted too
BLAZIKEN FOR LIFE!
S...Swampert's cool.....
@@acapitala4936 but sceptile and blaziken is better
I love some of reasonings are just “I like this Pokémon, so they would use that”
that's what I did with my gym leaders in my fan region I created
its a good reason
@@ArthurTRead same
@@ArthurTRead but if they the rival like in Michaels video wouldn’t they have opposite of ur favorite starter
@person person, Micheal would die from that, of absolute hate, and giving up on trying to beat it
@@ArthurTRead m.uleley
Ah, I see why you made Silver a poison-type specialist. Because he's toxic.
Hey his Crobat shows he can be friendly, he learns to be friendly to peeps iirc he actually says sorry or something to the player in the League at one point
@@BaconNuke so that means that he overcome his toxic behaviour...
controlling and overcoming his toxic behaviour,sounds like a poison-specialist
Wait kamon is a boy? I had no idea
@@dabmonstr7403 Yep!
@@themysticleopard5705 He also groped Ethan/Kris/Lyra.
It's interesting that you made Tierno a water type specialist from Crawdaunt alone, considering he is kind of a water type specialist in the anime with three of his five known team members; Blastoise, Ludicolo and Politoed, are water types. He actually has kind of a rain team, even one of his non-water types Raichu using the rain for Thunder.
Shoulda done the whole Raihan Sandstorm team thing with Tierno
It seems like M&J, like many, treats the anime and games as being part of the same Multiverse but not in the same timelines of events as the games. So using the anime isn't referred to unless a team needs a filler member(s).
When the sponsor ship is so creative and good, you don’t skip it: *surprised pikachu face*
"You broke in and stole my cake." made me laugh out loud.
The reason i love Michael's sponsor part of the video is because of Grunty boye
Grunty Boi for Team Rocket Leader
#001 I almost thought this was going to be some sort of low key indication that he was going to do another Pokemon Rap battle.
Please do what lostin He’s doing with his own Pokémon reason
"At least I was there"
Every lonely kids in their birthday: Nono, he's got a point
Lol
You mean everyone celebrating their birthday in quarantine XD
May is so hot it makes sense
@@FlyingFairyS2 what?
Thats all my birthdays
17:27 Unless Shauna's Goodra transitioned from male to female between her Route 19 battle and the Battle Maison becoming available, that's two Goodra, not one. Same conclusion (she has more dragon-type Pokemon than Pokemon of any other type), different premise.
Also, the Route 19 Goodra is illegal. Sliggoo's supposed to evolve at level 50, but Shauna's Route 19 Goodra is level 49. This is of course even more fodder for making her a dragon trainer, since dragon trainers have a proud tradition of having illegal, under-leveled pseudo-legends.
Lance and Iris are the two that come to mind.
Shauna is an ally. We stan Goodra, a trans icon
Same with lance and drake
You can too in Alola, actually. If I remember correctly, the 1% Bagon encounter on top of the cliff right before battling Hala has a chance to sos call a Salamence that is only level 15 or so.

Dude. Bidoof.

foof
@Rotom Channel and that's why he's not chosen, as he's too powerful.
nah hes too strong for barry
No legendaries though
If starters weren’t restricted I do think water would be a good alternative gym for Barry- Empoleon, as you mentioned, but he ALSO mentions wanting Crasher Wake to be his mentor (and honestly, Wake’s energy fits him)
It does lol
I actually really liked the idea behind the honey tree theme! I think it would be cool if there were more gyms with themes rather then types. Like “sound” and stuff.
I think you would enjoy Pokemon Uranium then (apart from the first and fifth gym leader), they have themes like the beach, theater, night and day, etc.
"I came to your birthday party!"
"You *broke in* and *stole my cake."*
"At least I was there..."
He giving strait facts
I like how Gladion didn't change at all to look like a dark type trainer.
the alolan bois already know what they wanna be when they get older
Umm hau changed
@Finn Ewing Silver didn't change much. Just purple trimming.
Probably cus he already looks like one like if I first saw him I’d expect him to be one
may also already looks like a fire type specialist lol
Giving my fav rival Silver a purple color scheme is something I didn’t know I needed. I love it
I thought silver would be a dark or an ice type gym leader because Sneasel is his iconic pokemon (in my opinion) also he's my favorite too :D
ah yes, to this day i remember doing that research in castelia and getting asked what was my favorite type and getting mad because there was no honey tree option.

You probably could consider Snorlax as Barry's ace because he is the only NPC character in all the Sinnoh games who uses one.
It is also great irony - the most energetic rival has Snorlax, the laziest pokemon, as his ace
@@everest5718 I almost forgot to add that it's Barry's strongest overall--it has the highest base stat total, it's his highest-level one that he always uses, and its moveset is devastating: strong STAB, counter moves for all its weaknesses and resistances, and overall high base power.
@@everest5718What about Slakoth or Slaking, who both have the ability Truant? Wouldn't they be the laziest?
@@JCDragon2819 eh probably. Snorlax is a very well known Pokémon for sleeping all the time, which is why I called it the laziest lol.
i feel like Hugh should have had a dark type team since his character defining trait is just his sister's purrloin
Batman's voice: *WHERE'S PURRLOIN*
OOF stole my comment
*OOOF*
@Nick Tangeman late but don't drayden and iris have a druddigon in the unova games?
I feel like he should be dragon type purely because of a pun with dragon rage
I'd imagine this version of Barry as an "unofficial" Gym Leader like the Master of the Fighting Dojo. Maybe he'd give you the choice of a faster-acting honey vs one that has a higher chance of calling rare Pokemon.
I actually like this idea.
Makes sense
Higher chance of rare Pokémon Honey would be my choice.
After all, even if you still have to wait six hours, its worth it for higher chances of stuff like Heracross and Munchlax.
Why does this make so much sense?
His gimmick is that he's in a different location every day.
I just love how he avoids making the gym leaders normal type gen 1-5 while giving them to the last gens 7-8
I like his gimmick; I think it honestly kind of makes sense for Barry to have Empoleon and have water as a type specialty though. The other two starters are represented in Sinnoh on GL/E4 teams and Barry idolizes Crasher Wake and convinced him to be his mentor to train him in Platinum/Masters. But yeah the honey is a cool idea

What about gladions lyconrock
I would have just given Blue the Pidgeot Team. There's already a Psychic type gym in Kanto.
Considering Blue becomes the leader of the Viridian Gym and hands you the Earth Badge, I think it would have made sense to have him be a Ground-type specialist.
It’s Green badge in Japan.
I definitely couldn’t tell gladion was a dark type specialist. There’s no way his outfit and edgy personality give that vibe.
This is sarcasm, right?
@@braveheartjason812 Noooooooooo absolutely not
(yes)
Yeah, he looks more like a fairy specialist than a dark specialist/s
Yeah, I thought if anything he would be a steel type specialist because sylvally looks like it’s made of metal
Honestly thought it was going to be poison because Zubat was the only pokemon i remember him using outside of Type: Null/Silvally
The Barry section was ABSOLUTELY genius, I never would have thought of honey trees despite almost half his team coming from them!
Brendan having Sceptile makes more sense when you consider the fact, that most of the time Brendan is shown animated or given a starter, he typically has a Sceptile.
Also in the anime- gladion’s lycanroc is shown most in all his battles, especially the Alola league final. I know it’s not a dark type but it’s one of his signature Pokémon alongside umbreon and silvally
and it definitely looks quite mean so I think you should add midnight form lycanroc to his team too
Grunty boi: I was at your birthday party
Michael: You broke in and stole my cake
Grunty boi: At least I was there
What Grunty boy should've said was
"At least the cake was delicious."
Michael: “And for Brendan, there’s a three way tie between...
Me: He’s going to give him grass so he can give him Sceptile.
Michael: “I’m going to give him grass...”
Me: He’s going to give him Sceptile.
Michael: “Not Sceptile...”
Me: 👀
Michael: “But honorary Sceptile.”
He had us in the first half not gonna lie
I was so expecting him to say Sceptile. Why wouldn’t I? It was already in the THUMBNAIL!
Brendan deserves Sceptile. He has Treecko in Pokemon Masters and Sceptile in Pokemon Generations.

Gruntyboi sounds like Michael's best Papyrus impression.

Agreed
Silver being a Poison-type trainer is a really solid decision! It also indirectly references his relationship to Team Rocket and its boss, since Team Rocket members usually use Poison-types and since Giovanni uses both Nidos on multiple occasions.
2:54 one the most funniest conversations I've ever heard between Grunt Boy and Micky
I know she isn’t really a rival, but it would be cool if Lillie was included, either as a fairy type specialist like in the games, or an ice type one (since there is no ice focused trainer in the region).
As a fairy type kahuna, from the her in-game teams she could have Clefable, Ribombee, and Comfey, while from her anime teams she could have Alolan Ninetails and Magearna (feels weird to give her a mystic/legendary, but she’s already heavily associated with one; Cosmog; and it’s base stat total is 600 and in the pseudo legendary range). Rounding out her team could be a Mega-Altaria, as Altaria is her Ultra Guardian ride Pokémon, and the mega form grants it the fairy type.
If she were an ice type kahuna, a possible team could be:
Alolan Ninetails
Alolan Sandslash
Glaceon
Lapras
Dewgong
Vanilluxe
Though this is more me spit-balling based on her vibes and the new ice types of the region.
Bro, giving Silver a Nidoking is a super cool idea! It's like a little nod to his father, Giovanni who also had a Nidoking!
Nidoqueen

@@yourgamingcat6238 yeah unfezent not bad

I feel like Barry being a honey-tree gym leader makes it seem like he’s from Pokémon Uranium, given that most of the gym leaders use themes instead of type specialties.
THERE IS NO HYPHEN IN HONEY TREE!
I can just imagine him looking at poison types and being like hmmm where’s a mean and angry looking one
'There are no other fire types for May to use other than Blaziken'

Sad music plays
Wow my brain said dead
Isnt there a houndoom?
23:36 Side note. By completing the crown Tundra DLC, Klara & Avery use both Galarian Slowking and Galarian Slowbro at the same time in the Galarian Star Tournament. I personally would either swap Salazzle & Indeedee for Galarian Slowking, or swap Slowbro for Slowking on Avery's team because I think Galarian Slowking fits Avery's aesthetic more than Klara's. Furthermore, Avery sends out Slowking last in all battles after The Crown Tundra, while Klara send's out Slowbro last. Making this decision even more viable.
Love the idea of making Barry a honey tree specialist. Honestly think it would have been cooler if you had done more alternate themes like this. Like, maybe Silver could have been a trade evolution specialist, in reference to the fact he has Alakazam and Gengar (and uses Kingdra in other media), and is in fact known as the exchanger in the manga,
Imagine if May and Brenden replaced Norman's gym when he retired and became a double battle gym with 2 different type specialtys.
that would be a bit mind-bending, since while may and brendan are buds and so are norman and birch so it wouldn't be weird for the rival to join up with the protag in taking over the gym,
... you wouldn't be able to tell which one is the actual heir to the gym
@@hi-i-am-atan lure friendly then
@@hi-i-am-atan wouldn't it just be a Tate and Liza situation where they both are. Otherwise I assume Norman's kid is the heir and they invite Birch's kid to join them in running the gym.
@@omarmansuri7099 see that's the thing
which one is norman's kid, and which one is birch's?
Depends on which the protagonist is If you choose Brendan he’s Norman’s child but if you choose May he’s birch’s child
I feel Water makes sense for Barry as he is massively inspired by Crasher Wake and is like a fanboy so like he asks Wake to teach him
I definitely agree.
That would allow him to have his Empoleon. The other members could be Floatzel, Gastrodon, Mantine, Bibarel and Lumineon
Also his masters sync is empoleon
Edit: note I also feel like blue should be flying for the same reason, his sync pair Pokémon is pidgeot
why did I read that as "he asks Wake to crash him"
R u saying that because u love Zoe’s which r fish people
I think it’s ironic that Barry, who is always rushing with little patience, is a specialist in a mechanic that takes a pain-staking amount of time on a good day.
I maybe would have made Brendan a water trainer, due to the weather theme in the generation.
Wailord, Pelipper, Ludicolo, Castform (to stay consistent with May's)... maybe Huntail? Then either Swampert to stay in line with the Blaziken, or Relicanth or something else.
Gotta love that honey tree team though.
You want three water specialists in Hoenn?! Wow that region does have too much water! I gotta drink from it.
I love the art style for Dark Calem and Serena
Dark Serenas clothes looks like something she'd use in the animé
Shiny rivals
Also serena looks gothic
Which i love
And calem well looks like a professional theif
Art style is the same tho, just the colors changed 🤔
Still looks great tho
Yesss their gym is now the Boutique couture and you can only get in if you have Max style points

Nemona’s signature Pokémon is her Electric tera type Pawmot, so she would be an Electric gym leader.

Arven’s ace is Mabosstiff so he would be a Dark gym leader.
His team would be Mabosstiff, Kingambit, Lokix, Bombirdier, Hydreigon and Tyranitar
Penny is too committed to her Eevee theme so she would be an Eeveelution specialist.
As a refresher, her team is Umbreon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Leafeon and Sylveon.
Carmine’s ace is Sinistcha and she has a Leavanny, so she would be a Grass gym leader.
Her team would be Sinistcha, Leavanny, Scovillain, Arboliva, Brambleghast and Toedscruel
Kieran’s ace is a Fighting tera type Hydrapple and he has a Poliwrath, so he would be a Fighting gym leader.
His team would be Hydrapple, Poliwrath, Incineroar, Paldean Tauros, Annihilape and Flamigo. Incineroar isn’t a Fightinng type, but it looks enough like one that I think it’s fine.
I think incineroar is okay because the other bb elite four members utilise a pokemon not of their specialty.
Wonder what neoma’s team would’ve been
Stone since Is on!h Tpye whituot a rock Tpye (not cuointing titans)
Man and I thought my Dyslexia was bad.
Fighting. She has Quaquaval and Pawmot. All her other pokemon do not overlap types at all. Lycanroc, Goodra, Dudunsparce, Orthworm, Skeledirge and Meowscarada all do not overlap any other typings at all.

Slither Wing/Iron Hands (she went into Area 0 with you)

"If every gym leader became a rival"
And also "if every rival was the evil team leader"
Just give them their normal team.
About the rivals becoming evil team leaders
May/Brendan for example their team wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for either Magma or Aqua as they have parts of both
Same thing applies to Barry as team galactic leader since Cyrus has a lot of dark types
As for gym leaders becoming rivals
They wouldn't necessarily have to specialize in one type like Bede or Marnie but have a more diverse team like Blue
I think that would be fun for saying what their organization would be about
Another point to defend Brendan having a Sceptile is that Treecko is his sync pair in Pokemon Masters
True
Pokémon Masters is such a fun game, no cap. I’ve played on and off since the day it came out, and I love it.
You have a point
And the ORAS (I think) trailer
The omega trailers had may with Blaziken and swampert and Brendan and sceptile were paired,like you mentioned it's also a sync pair Pokemon masters so yeah

I've heard Giovanni was supposed to be Flying-type, so Blue's Flying team feels better in my eyes. Besides, Alakazam is already Sabrina's ace.
*seeing May's team* okay, Blue might as well freaking replace Sabrina. I mean, with that team, May might as well move to a parallel universe when she turns 18, color her hair red, and call herself Flannery. Flannery is May from another reality! Quick, Brendan, *burp* you must become a Grass gym leader!
It was actually the gym that was supposed to be Flying type.
People that datamined the leaked Green betas found a now scrapped kid character that used the same pose as Giovanni, which probably meant that he idolised the Rocket Boss and tried to act like him; he was the Viridian Gym Leader initially, with 2 low level Flying pokemon. This and the fact that Brock had an additional Diglett in his team clearly indicates that the kid was originally planned as the first leader to beat with Brock being the second.
When they then scrapped the kid and put Giovanni in his place, not only his Silph Co encounter included a Scyther but the Gym team was entirely made of fully evolved Flying types, so Gamefreak was very likely planning to save the original type theme of the gym while shifting Giovanni's teams to include more Flying types, then scrapped the thing together with the original Cinnabar Gym Leader Katsura and the evil Silph plot.
i don’t know why i busted out laughing when he said “honey tree specialist”
Tierno is a missed opportunity, he should’ve been done like Barry. Where he specializes on a theme rather than type, so like give him dancing Pokémon such as Hitmontop, Maractus, or Ludicolo who he’s already got.
Pokemon Uranium has gym leaders that share this trait, instead of a type specialist, it is a theme specialist

Would love to see you make a video about what type specialty the Orange Crew would use. (Would be your shortest video since it's only 4 of them.) Love the content, stay amazing as always!
I think you should’ve made Hau a Psychic-type kahuna, since there’s already an Electric trial with Sophocles and there’s nothing for Psychic in Alola, applying the same logic that you used with Brendan.
His Psychic team would be A-Raichu, Espeon (as a nod to his other Eeveelutions and because there’s a gift Eevee egg), Oranguru, Hula Oricorio (both Alola Pokémon I can see Hau using), Slowking and Bruxish (the best fits for Hau out of USUM’s remaining psychics)
Actually, Faba is a Psychic-Type trainer. He is just neither a captain, nor a Kahuna, if that's what you were getting at.

Mikey: A Foolish Miscalculation!!
Great, another anonymous dude just show up nowhere
@@kelviankelindos5965 wut?
@@tomago1470 I'm just saying that the part where Yash here was trying to skip the ads then suddenly the rodeo guy came and said those words implying that a guy steps in just a few seconds when he skips the ads
Not only do Klara and Avery have type specialties already, but at the beginning of the Galarian Star Tournament, they confirm that they became Minor League Gym Leaders, so there's that too!
actually barry's team was my fav because the honey pokemon specialist was really creative
Silver with Nidoking is so good, especially being Giovanni’s kid : D
Next idea: "What if Villain Team Leaders were Champions"
I mainly just want to see them have a team of six.
but most of them do have six pokemon
Good idea
Except For Lysandre and Maxie and Archie
I feel like "Grunty-Boi" is gonna become a fan favorite "character"
I feel like he already is
HE IS
@BREION AMOYAW NO!! YoU StOlE mY bIrThDaY CaKe lol
True
You sir are precious cargo. Well committed to your craft and putting on a show for your audience. Your the man bro keep it up 👍💯
5:20 scyther is perfect for flying Gary, I'm pretty sure it's his ace in the manga
Most rivals ace:a starter
Michael: we don't do that here
Brendan and May: are we joke to you
@@azankhan864 may was because he didn't have a choice and brendan only had it as an honorary member, but he still avoided it as much as possible
I just have to say, Calem/Serena's Dark alternate costume is amazing.
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
YES!
@AmitieNarrations They had to look bland to serve as a base for the customization system that they were trying out, Serena looks much better with her anime looks
@@Jynx9921 I still like their starting outfits.
They look like they’re attending a funeral.
@@jeffreygao3956 yeah, the funeral of whomever challenges them
I like the honey tree specialist idea for Barry, but if I were to choose a type, it would be water for floatzel because in platinum, thats the one that I associated him with, that or normal type for munchlax

Mikey: AHHH MEGA PIGIOET
Mega pigioet: IMA FLY ON TO YOUR CHEST
8:28 micheal, you could’ve done “flare yeah” like f yeah, but clean
Or yeah sun
Maybe not Flare given, ya know the whole genecide thing.
Or Flame on!
I understand Hugh being an electric type leader, but I see him as a Dark type considering he spent the entire B2W2 story looking for Purloin, even though it wasn’t his. It just fits him better than electric.
Because Hugh might as well be Batman
At Tierno in 2023 here like "GIVE THIS MAN A QUAQUAVAL"
If we get a gen 6 remake someday, he would LOVE it. Shame he existed before it and Oricorio.
10:42 yes because my rule is if one starters on someone’s team, all the starters must be on someone’s team and Blaziken’s on May and Wally has swampert
I think Blue being a flying type leader is the most fitting. He takes over the Viridian City gym, which rather or not the Giovani was originally going to be a flying gym leader is true or not, the badge still looks like a feather. Also, Pidgey was his first catch according to the optional battle west of Viridian City. Plus Gyarados means that he is always depicted with at least two flying types, but Machamp replaces Alakazam in the fourth generation so he is not always shown with two psychic types.
Well, datamine on the Green betas showed that there was supposed to be a kid in place of Giovanni as the Viridian Gym Leader, with only 2 low level Flying types in his team; funny thing is that he had the same pose as Giovanni, probably hinting that the kid was emulating the Rocket Boss acting like a bully, and putting him as an early, very easy Leader makes perfect sense.
Also the same datamine showed that when this character got scrapped and they put Giovanni in its place, the team suddenly bumped up to 5 fully evolved members but stayed entirely Flying type; combine this with the other 2 Giovanni teams being incomplete but strangely including a now absent Scyther and it's pretty clear that, for a while, they planned to save the original type theme of the Viridian Gym while moving it to be the last instead of the first.
Blaine's overworld sprite actually being Katsura's, the original guide book having a portrait with Katsura as the 7th Gym Leader and the Juggler in Silph Co. using the dialogue of the scrapped android character already show that Gamefreak had to do a big lore and gameplay change at the last moment; they forgetting to change the Viridian badge from being clearly feather shaped to something more earth related isn't surprising.
@@darkfiredragon3410 I didn't know about those data minings. Thanks for telling me about them.
To be honest I’m just here for the colour palette swaps
Which was your favorite? Mine was Hau
I’m here for the team creation, let’s collab
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ( I liek all of them)
Barry
🙌
Did anybody else catch that when he flahes back to Marnie's team at 23:05 Morpeko is gone? It was on the team at 22:55 but it is gone 10 seconds later!
20:34 Michael building a Mixed-Electric team by accident, and a good case for Elite Four Hau
