I mean, he did get an advantage over Dark Types and strengthened up against Bug and Ghost types too... with the exception of his ace, Hatterene. The symbol of his career.
Imagine working basically your whole life trying to impress the only father figure you have, only for him to disown you and you get kidnapped by a weird fairy lady
@@yubankostraiko3795 that's cause it *was* his misfortune being born in the same time period as a prodigy such as the protagonist, who destroys his dreams
Roselia had me winning most of the fights with him because I had Toxic and Poison Jab And then she evolved into Roserade and I used so many feathers on her hoooo boy
@Highwind Rider aand hop's. Man our trainer has no chill in this game. Low key they ended up being the Scottish trainer people made them into - mainly the female trainer of course - and ended up being not far off. So many careers, _ruined_
I mean kinda. Bede became a gym leader Leon actually got *more* sponsors thanks to Battle Tower and the rematches (he ain't going broke any time soon) Marnie became a gym leader Piers went to do music Rose and Olenda are still doing the energy thing just without the evil space dragon deal In fact, Hop is the only career you officially destroyed. He became an assistant professor and even then talk-no-jutsu'd a legend into a pokeball. So it's a good start.
Actually, I almost got destroyed by this battle. I didn't have any good match typing and struggled to finish the battle. It was a weird situation because I steamrolled most everything before and after that battle. I did wing a couple of gyms to fair success, but wasn't worried I was going to fail like the Bede battle especially since I didn't know how recently I had saved the game before facing him having autosave turned off.
I know she meant pink as a feeling or whatever, but I always found it funny that Opal chose Bede over my character because he was more pink. I was completely decked out in pink, hell my hair was a light pink color
I was in the same situation. Hell pink is even my favourite color. XD But I'm not into fairies (even if I like some of them, like Gardevoir, Primarina, Mimikyu, Alolan Ninetales. I hate the type anyway) I prefer psychic and water types. Maybe that's why she couldn't feel my pink. XD
Now, During post game, if you invite Bede to the champion cup, Bede has a Sylveon. Remember, this means he needed an Eevee to a Sylveon. To get a Slyveon, you need your Eevee to have a fairy type move and you need to get it to three hearts in friendship. This means Bede loved his Eevee enough to evolve it. Or Opal just gave a Slyveon to him-
Maybe she gave him an Eevee, to test his "pink" out some more, thus he evolved the Eevee into a Slyveon through love. That's sounds really nice for a theory actuallly. I really like it!
@@alexmercer2635 no that was Piers suggestion to Marnie since he's retiring, Marnie actually wanted to be champion but that ended and she decided to take her brothers place as gym leader.
Can we just talk about the fact that in his final battle, Bede, the “unfriendly” rival, has Hatterene as his G-Max “ace” Pokémon, which is female only, while Marnie, the friendly rival, has Grimmsnarl as her G-Max “ace” Pokémon, which is a male-only line. Not only that, but Grimmnsnarl is all about strong emotions, while Hatterene suppresses and attacks them. They’re direct opposites. Genius! EDIT: I’ve realized something else. Bede’s Hatterene is a female only, fairy type witch Pokémon. Bede has a person in his life like that... a lady fairy type specialist some call “the wizard.” Is Hatterene paralleled with Opal? Similarity, Marnie’s Grimmsnarl is a male only, dark type Pokémon with lots and lots of hair. Piers, similarly, is a male dark type specialist with lots of hair. Game freak really went all out for these characters...
This game for me has the BEST rival themes. Hop, Bede, and Marnie all get absolute bangers as themes and I enjoy every battle with them tenfold because of their themes.
True. I actually feel very bad for Hough (don’t know how his name is spelled from B2/W2) and Gladion already that their themes are almost dethroned by all the rivals’ themes in Sword and Shield.
Gen 8 has the best characters and gym leaders. Coming from a Gen. 5 stan Unova did paved the way for what we now expect from characters. I love how Galar took what we loved about Gens 1-7 and worked it’s way into it. Wanted a friendly rival like Brendan/May/Cheren/Bianca? Go got it Wanted a lot of rivals like XY? You got it. Wanted a rude rival like silver and Blue? You got it. Wanted a rival with a “evil” team behind em? You got it. Gen 8 hands down best generation of rivals and gym leaders.
And then theres the neutral rivals The only one I can think about right now is that spiky navy-haired kid from black and white I never knew his canonical name as I named him Tucker after a friend of mine
@@idrovepastyourhouse-9385 they didn't forget, that's their opinion. You like Hau, they don't. At least, not as much. Frankly, I don't like him either.
Id say the only other track that compares is the red battle theme from silver/gold. Even if you dont like the game you have to admit it has the best soundtrack, especially Marnies theme, gym battle theme, and the Weald
Ive never been too big of a fan of pokemons music, theres only a few in past games i really really love. But sword and shield changes this. Bedes theme is SO catchy its earcandy i cant stop listening. Such a good soundtrack
So, here's the thing: I agree and disagree at the same time. The entire soundtrack is AMAZING, but there isn't one song that just stands out as being especially good. S/M had Vast Poni Canyon, B/W had Driftveil City, etc. I guess either Marnie's battle theme or the gym leader battle theme would be this gen's, but they're about the same quality as the rest of the tracks.
@@tear959 maybe, but there are still a lot of Pokémons that aren’t Fairy/Psychic like Morgrem or Shiinotic. Another detail is that some of his initial Pokémons are still where he becomes a Gym Leader (Haterenne and Rapidash for example, being Fairy/Psychic)
Bede: Oh boy! I'm ready to beat all 8 gyms and win the Champion Cup with my team of Psychic ty- Chairman Rose: *n o* Bede: Oh well, at least I can train my Duosion until he evol- Opal: *n o*
I love how most battle themes in this game are just pure hype and adrenaline. It fits with what Pokemon battling in Galar is all about. More so than in any other region, Pokemon battling in Galar is about sport, hype and epicness
All of y'all calling him a rich snob didn't even read his league card smh.. "Bede spent some time living in an orphanage after his family ran into some trouble when he was young. He always had difficulty getting along with others and would constantly get into fights. That is until one day Chairman Rose visited the facility. Rose gave Bede a Pokémon, which changed Bede's life forever. He showed talent as a Trainer and threw himself into Pokémon battles, becoming stronger by the day. He has joined the Gym Challenge with an endorsement from the chairman himself, and Bede plans to prove that the chairman's faith was not misplaced." Edit: I think the league cards are a great way to explain what kind of character someone is without having to go through the story again
Honestly I really liked bede. He started as a massive twat and slowly became more likable as he starts to realize that the player is a fucking awesome trainer. He also ends up as a pretty good fairy type gym leader.
Rogue You can tell that being under Opal’s care had started to change him. Like Opal had said, he was just misguided. He just needed proper guidance is all.
Yeah he quickly ate his way into my heart. And I kinda ship my trainer with him now.....hey opposites attract as she loves steel, fighting or psychic types.
The melody/climax comes from the 5th generation's PWT final tournament battle theme. As soon as I recognized it, I was amazed because it's such an amazing tune but nobody really remembers the PWT.
@@Ratzmoonmopes I didn't even notice, thanks for pointing it out. Azalea town is such a nostalgic song. I'm reliving all my favorite childhood Pokemon games listening to this song.
The really cool thing they did is how accurate the Hatenna line is for Bede's whole arc. Hatenna and Hattrem are pure Psychic types, which he has when he was a Psychic type trainer. And then he becomes a Fairy user, and Hatterene gains a Fairy type. That little detail is obvious, but amazing at the same time.
Shh, don't call me out. (Joke's on everyone, though. I switched my ace from theivul to my shiny mimikyu I Masuda method farmed for...and swept every match with her.)
This dude. I love him, and I love how he goes from Giant Ayusshole to Cute Fairy Boi Gym Leader. He also has the funniest cutscene in the game, and I have a major soft spot for characters with family issues. And the FLOOF HAIR of course
I know I'm reaching like hell here, but I noticed something the other day while listening to this: 0:58 has always been my favorite part of the song because of how it sounds like the instrument is _squealing_ trying to play those notes, like the amount of effort behind that playing is _insane,_ and that made me realize that that part is actually almost fitting for Bede as a character. An instrument going solo, and trying _so damn hard_ to play as hard as it can, that it _squeals_ and almost falls apart under the pressure it's putting on itself. You can _hear_ the melody it's _trying_ to play there, but it goes so hard that it slurs together in a way that sounds almost painful.
Maybe it’s just somewhere in his pc, I know they didn’t want to show Hateena yet but from fighting against him it’s clear that’s his signature Pokémon and it gets gigantamax.
he has duosion but it didnt get to evolve into reuiniclus since bede changed type preferance so I'm guessing pokeli just saw that bede has duosion and was like"oh he has duosion its definitely gonna evolve" but then after he made this video he battled him in the fairy gym and realized he never let duosion evolve (btw is bede a boy or girl)
Hop: *still depressed after losing to Bede* Me: “Hey if it makes you feel better, he got kidnapped by the fae not long after he beat you.” Hop: “What?!” Me: “Don’t worry it was just Opal.” Hop: “THATS EVEN WORSE!!!” *Meanwhile in Balonlea* Opal: “Hippity hairy your psychic Pokémon are now fairy!” Bede: *demonic screeching*

@@NorthSudan Agreed, he felt more of a rock, ground and steel type, and only has a flygon because its part ground type and duraludon as his ace because most gym leaders have a new pokemon/has an older pokemon that can gigantimax as their ace
Psychic types are weak to Dark, representing the darkness and hate that led Bede's life. Fairy types are resistant to Dark, representing how he overcame that darkness and became a better person by the end.
i'm still pissed we didn't get a semi-finals version of this theme. Just fucking imagine the crowd chanting "ooooohhhhhhhhh" to the melody of this 0:45 and then chanting "BEDE" as well
@@kaiserband6412 >the Chairman gave Bede a Pokémon that would eventually beat him to unconsciousness if he showed any strong emotion lol holy shit, even Rose hated him
@@pumpkincat8336 Bold and wrong of you to assume I don't care while missing an important detail. Why else would I have written "eventually"? Obviously I'm thinking/talking about Hattrem. I'm not stupid.
and here we see a person who can’t tell the difference between edge and punk, currently he has no chance of mating. (It’s a joke, I don’t actually mean it, but still, she’s punk, not edgy)
I have a theory that rose or olena guided him towards that. Think about it, where did he get that copperjah? Later we find out that it belongs to rose. idk, it looks like they set him up
@@MrJonathon08 Considering she mentioned "I wondered why you wanted to borrow the charirman's Copperajah" it sounds to me like he just used his ties and their trust to get what he wanted by tracking down what he could for his mission. Rose wanted his help without a doubt and neither of them could afford to keep him on their agenda with that bad rep to his name. I'd chalk it down to raw arrogance and a matter of ends justify the means. I would've expected him to go "But you said-" if he were really in the dark about something.
Bede's theme is objectively a masterpiece. It is a hard theme to put your finger on the rhythm at first, since it's all over the place. Bede? He's all over the place, as a confused child who wants to take down anyone with brute force. Just like him, this theme gets thrown into your face. It is so odd sounding, that it fits him, an odd character. It sounds mean and toxic, just as his personality. It has a lot of slap bass in the background like sinnoh and gen 8 have constantly (but gen 8 really went above and beyond with it), giving it that sound of importance. But it's not. It's pretending, just as Bede is pretending not to lose and "letting you win" and how he is the strongest challenger. It is also ridiculously edgy, almost being a throwback to gen 2 for it's jerk rival Silver. It's a stuck-up theme for a stuck-up character, and while I won't listen to it on it's own, I appreciate how well it works for him, and that it's in the game.
It could be also that he wants to win the Gym Challenge too, because part of his theme actually remixes the PWT finals theme from Black and White 2, and Galar's Gym Challenge finals are held in a similar way to that. Coincidence?
Kinda sad Bede didn't get a "Final Battle" remix like Hop and Marnie did. Would have been cool to hear an even better version of this with the stadium chants Maybe it's a reflection of Bede's character arc. Hop and Marnie both gained fans during the gym challenge that cheered for them at the finals. Poor Bede has no-one to cheer for him. Except Opal I guess lol
Bede is such a cool rival. The only problem is that we don’t see enough of him, after Opal ‘kidnaps’ him, we don’t see him until the championships. I would say that the reasons why he’s a total jerk are: The fact that he didn’t have a stable childhood, being an orphan and getting into fights, getting endorsed and becoming overconfident, getting disowned and probably you as the trainer made him even more salty. The fact that he overcomes his past and becomes the Ballonlea gym leader is pretty cool. Hop and Bede have brilliant character development that goes unnoticed.
I'm just saying. We got Hop in Isle of Armor. If we DON'T get Bede in the Crown Tundra I will explode like that of a microwave potato that was not stabbed beforehand. Steaming and angry.
Bede theme comments: Praising Bede or Opal memes Marnie theme comments: Praising Marnie, wanting to join Team Yell Hop theme comments: Bede fans with pitchforks.
Bede: exists with a molecule of pink in his clothing Opal: *come now, child* Bede: oh so is the gym gonna be psychic now or- Opal: *you will use fairies and you will like it or else I will prepare an especially creamy gmax finale for you* Bede: yes ma’am, but can I keep my- Opal: *you will wear the uniform and you will like it*
It just hit me. I wondered why Bede's theme didn't change in the last fight why him like everyone else's did (including more of the crowds chants and stuff). I think it might be because unlike the others there's a chance at that point he has no fans cheering for him (likely because of what he did in Stow-on-Side). Which is too bad because I would have loved to see a 2nd version of his theme.
Yeah, and that's honestly sad. Plus at the end of the game where he almost sacrifices his role as a trainer, that's when people cheer. Honestly, Bede's a great character, GameFreak did him kina dirty tbh.
Luckily for me, I find gym leader bede pretty damn tempting to eat. Especially if I have the room in my stomach for him, I’ll think about eating him up rather than actually dealing with him or his Pokémon
I'm glad that they finally added another rival to the series that isn't nice or "I'm your friend so I'll encourage and heal you". It's much more fun to fight someone like Gary Oak or "You suck and I'm better because I'm the popular trainer and I don't care about your pokemon"

Can we just talk about the fact that in his final battle, Bede, the “unfriendly” rival, has Hatterene as his G-Max “ace” Pokémon, which is female only, while Marnie, the friendly rival, has Grimmsnarl as her G-Max “ace” Pokémon, which is a male-only line. Not only that, but Grimmnsnarl is all about strong emotions, while Hatterene suppresses and attacks them. They’re direct opposites. Genius!
EDIT: I’ve realized something else. Bede’s Hatterene is a female only, fairy type witch Pokémon. Bede has a person in his life like that... a lady fairy type specialist some call “the wizard.” Is Hatterene paralleled with Opal?
Similarity, Marnie’s Grimmsnarl is a male only, dark type Pokémon with lots and lots of hair. Piers, similarly, is a male dark type specialist with lots of hair.
Game freak really went all out for these characters...
Hop: Am I a joke to you?
Circunflexo I also thought it was fun they gave the male only Pokémon to Marnie and the female only Pokémon to Bede. Just a fun little switch around.
Also grimmsnarl and hatterene are both fairy type
Mebo right, so they’re connected
They also attack using their hair, have same base stat, live in the same place (both their early stages and latest)
This game for me has the BEST rival themes. Hop, Bede, and Marnie all get absolute bangers as themes and I enjoy every battle with them tenfold because of their themes.
True. I actually feel very bad for Hough (don’t know how his name is spelled from B2/W2) and Gladion already that their themes are almost dethroned by all the rivals’ themes in Sword and Shield.
I enjoyed that Bede was an actual antagonist/villain
there is no bad Sword and Shield's theme!
SV's themes are just slightly better IMO, but these ones are perfect.
Gen 8 has the best characters and gym leaders. Coming from a Gen. 5 stan Unova did paved the way for what we now expect from characters. I love how Galar took what we loved about Gens 1-7 and worked it’s way into it.
Wanted a friendly rival like Brendan/May/Cheren/Bianca? Go got it
Wanted a lot of rivals like XY? You got it.
Wanted a rude rival like silver and Blue? You got it.
Wanted a rival with a “evil” team behind em? You got it.
Gen 8 hands down best generation of rivals and gym leaders.

If that height is very low then I believe it. He's way too easy to beat thanks to all his pokemon being psychic and fairy. . . oh and weak.

Sword and shield sound designers didn’t need to go that hard but they did. Whole soundtrack is fire.
@Grayson Opinions.
Id say the only other track that compares is the red battle theme from silver/gold. Even if you dont like the game you have to admit it has the best soundtrack, especially Marnies theme, gym battle theme, and the Weald
Ive never been too big of a fan of pokemons music, theres only a few in past games i really really love. But sword and shield changes this. Bedes theme is SO catchy its earcandy i cant stop listening. Such a good soundtrack
So, here's the thing: I agree and disagree at the same time. The entire soundtrack is AMAZING, but there isn't one song that just stands out as being especially good. S/M had Vast Poni Canyon, B/W had Driftveil City, etc. I guess either Marnie's battle theme or the gym leader battle theme would be this gen's, but they're about the same quality as the rest of the tracks.
@@IceMetalPunk what about...Toby Fox's song?

Swsh is great
All of y'all calling him a rich snob didn't even read his league card smh..
"Bede spent some time living in an orphanage after his family ran into some trouble when he was young. He always had difficulty getting along with others and would constantly get into fights. That is until one day Chairman Rose visited the facility. Rose gave Bede a Pokémon, which changed Bede's life forever. He showed talent as a Trainer and threw himself into Pokémon battles, becoming stronger by the day. He has joined the Gym Challenge with an endorsement from the chairman himself, and Bede plans to prove that the chairman's faith was not misplaced."

Rogue You can tell that being under Opal’s care had started to change him. Like Opal had said, he was just misguided. He just needed proper guidance is all.

The really cool thing they did is how accurate the Hatenna line is for Bede's whole arc. Hatenna and Hattrem are pure Psychic types, which he has when he was a Psychic type trainer. And then he becomes a Fairy user, and Hatterene gains a Fairy type. That little detail is obvious, but amazing at the same time.
He also uses a lot of fairy/psychic pokemon

@@juju12589
Why do you think that matchup would work? Genuine question
I know I'm reaching like hell here, but I noticed something the other day while listening to this: 0:58 has always been my favorite part of the song because of how it sounds like the instrument is _squealing_ trying to play those notes, like the amount of effort behind that playing is _insane,_ and that made me realize that that part is actually almost fitting for Bede as a character. An instrument going solo, and trying _so damn hard_ to play as hard as it can, that it _squeals_ and almost falls apart under the pressure it's putting on itself. You can _hear_ the melody it's _trying_ to play there, but it goes so hard that it slurs together in a way that sounds almost painful.
0:45 I really like because it shows Bede's raw emotion to be noticed and do better. 🔥

He probably would have gotten one if he didn't snatched and forced to change his preferred typing.
Gardevoir woulda been a fun Pokemon to put there, but gardevoir is like everyone's signature Pokemon anyway, so it's probably for the better.
Maybe it’s just somewhere in his pc, I know they didn’t want to show Hateena yet but from fighting against him it’s clear that’s his signature Pokémon and it gets gigantamax.
Raikaria his ace technically was Duosion, but yeah the fairy apprentice and all. He probably still has it as a buddy and stuff
he has duosion but it didnt get to evolve into reuiniclus since bede changed type preferance so I'm guessing pokeli just saw that bede has duosion and was like"oh he has duosion its definitely gonna evolve" but then after he made this video he battled him in the fairy gym and realized he never let duosion evolve (btw is bede a boy or girl)

@@MrJonathon08 Considering she mentioned "I wondered why you wanted to borrow the charirman's Copperajah" it sounds to me like he just used his ties and their trust to get what he wanted by tracking down what he could for his mission.

I'd chalk it down to raw arrogance and a matter of ends justify the means. I would've expected him to go "But you said-" if he were really in the dark about something.

I mean you could probably break someone neck but since you don't know how you can't
Bede's theme is objectively a masterpiece. It is a hard theme to put your finger on the rhythm at first, since it's all over the place. Bede? He's all over the place, as a confused child who wants to take down anyone with brute force. Just like him, this theme gets thrown into your face. It is so odd sounding, that it fits him, an odd character. It sounds mean and toxic, just as his personality. It has a lot of slap bass in the background like sinnoh and gen 8 have constantly (but gen 8 really went above and beyond with it), giving it that sound of importance. But it's not. It's pretending, just as Bede is pretending not to lose and "letting you win" and how he is the strongest challenger. It is also ridiculously edgy, almost being a throwback to gen 2 for it's jerk rival Silver. It's a stuck-up theme for a stuck-up character, and while I won't listen to it on it's own, I appreciate how well it works for him, and that it's in the game.
It could be also that he wants to win the Gym Challenge too, because part of his theme actually remixes the PWT finals theme from Black and White 2, and Galar's Gym Challenge finals are held in a similar way to that. Coincidence?

Bede is such a cool rival. The only problem is that we don’t see enough of him, after Opal ‘kidnaps’ him, we don’t see him until the championships.
I would say that the reasons why he’s a total jerk are:
The fact that he didn’t have a stable childhood, being an orphan and getting into fights, getting endorsed and becoming overconfident, getting disowned and probably you as the trainer made him even more salty.
The fact that he overcomes his past and becomes the Ballonlea gym leader is pretty cool. Hop and Bede have brilliant character development that goes unnoticed.

Which is too bad because I would have loved to see a 2nd version of his theme.
Yeah, and that's honestly sad. Plus at the end of the game where he almost sacrifices his role as a trainer, that's when people cheer. Honestly, Bede's a great character, GameFreak did him kina dirty tbh.
and that’s what Pokémon masters said
It doesn't need one. This theme goes way too hard for an early game battle.

You thought it was Bede, but it was me, Dio!
bede is giorno's brother confirmed; look at that hair
Bede: I like physic types
Opal: *Where’s the pink*
On his jacket
*psychic
Me, who loves Dark type pokemon: "I'm gonna end this man's whole career."
Bede: *becomes a Fairy type specialist*
Me: *Demonic screeching*
*Laughs in fire types.*
Luckily for me, I find gym leader bede pretty damn tempting to eat. Especially if I have the room in my stomach for him, I’ll think about eating him up rather than actually dealing with him or his Pokémon
Me with my ground types: *scared but in awe at the same time*
@@docwulff907 me: *eats bede’s hair*
Nobody:
Bede: lol you just got lucky lmao what a loser
Opal: what's that
Bede: my duosion

Bede post game: Alright, I see you, still a bit mediocre, but I respect you as a champion.
Bede is such a tsundere.
I'm glad that they finally added another rival to the series that isn't nice or "I'm your friend so I'll encourage and heal you". It's much more fun to fight someone like Gary Oak or "You suck and I'm better because I'm the popular trainer and I don't care about your pokemon"
Bede: “moves”
Opal: fairy types within fairy types awaits you Bede
May the fairy types be with you
Bede: I'm going to beat you to death
Me: *laughs in Zigzagoon*
