Recording that intro gassed me out inexplicably, I mistakenly said "Pokémon Rangers" instead of "Pokémon Ranger". The audacity. Hope the lines didn't disrupt the video experience too much!

[@hachihiraga]

i always thought it was rangers ngl

[@charliegrist749]

I cannot accept you with high energy, ut just doesn't fit lol

[@Cool-Vest_Leo]

This game had NO RIGHT to be this good. A perfect self-insert character with a story that really let's you feel a sense of personal accomplishment as you rise from a lowly schoolchild to the hero of Almia. I think it had a profound impact on me. I just gave it a shout-out in a mock college application essay.

[@cesxr2324]

Just came back after 12 years and finished the capturing 2 final pokemon for the browser I gotta say even now this game is absolutely beautiful. Definitely 100/10

[@bi_smth]

The game is the PERFECT Pokemon story. It almost made more sense to me that a Pokemon Ranger (sum1 who actually GRADUATED school for this) is the one saving the world. The biomes are amazing. You really feel your own growth from being a scrawny Bidoof catcher, to adventuring in abandoned snow castles and infilitrating enemy bases.

[@pokepress]

Considering how rough the first game was, it’s kind of a miracle this sequel got made.

[@meganwilson5125]

Pokemon Ranger, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, and Pokemon Conquest were the best parts of my childhood. I hope that there is a way for all of these games can make a comeback with a future Nintendo Console

[@sadiebobabie]

SO REAL!!!

[@ericsanders9847]

I hear you

[@sushiroll3795]

Bro, Pokémon Conquest specifically has so much potential. Like, imagine all of Pokémon's normal mechanics in the form of a grid-based strategy game. Gold.

[@rajerrrmuahhh5466]

I’m INHALING hopium for a Pokémon spinoff pls pls pls

[@aetherland1883]

Ah Pokemon Conquest, the waifu chess before the waifu chess

[@ThetaWindfall]

I absolutely loved this game when i was a kid. I remember doing the drapion boss fight on the plane and my dad asking why i was doing circles on my screen so fast and suggesting that i should relax haha.

[@brandonstonge7513]

😂 in middle school I rode the bus sharing a seat with a kid that wasn’t really a Pokemon fan. So instead of trying to explain the game I would put my backpack up between us and try hiding the fact that I was spastically drawing circles lmao, the memories of young awkwardness, years later I dug thru my entire house trying to find that old DS and games again haha

[@Lady_Lavandula]

I played through this game at least three times when was a kid. All of my DS have permanent circles scratched into them 😂❤️ Now I want to play it again!

[@cloudnein3483]

This game was so insanely good, seeing content about it makes me so happy

[@Shiny_Sandshrew]

"I have the energy of a 40 year old thinking about retirement" is such a relatable quote and I'm not even close to 40...

[@questionsayer]

This game together with Guardian Signs had a big impact on my childhood. Thanks for playing the game so that I could experience it again

[@FrostytheAwesome]

This was such an underrated game, thank you for giving it the time it deserves! This was a great trip down memory lane

[@lazypaladin]

_Your lax, relaxed tone is what I subscribed for. You're the Orange Cassidy of Poketubers and I adore it._ 👌

[@MadameTeqi]

I adore how much crossover there is between wrestling and Pokemon, and the fact that you're absolutely right

[@vintagestealth8802]

Same. The relaxed tone makes it easier to watch for me.

[@justinclinger8741]

Did not expect a Orange Cassidy reference in the comments 😂

[@crazycatwin]

Man, one of the few games I consistently and repeatedly have 100%ed over the years. Great game

[@mjwillin]

Sometimes I wonder what made my parents even buy this game for me. I guess they just saw Pokémon in the title and bought it. They had no idea how much I would love this game

[@mothballsva]

ugh, going from that peppy insane upbeat opening to that downbeat slow voice… it is perfect. thank you.

[@That1Elliot]

Kincaid's Drapion was such a pain to me when I was a kid, I remember almost getting it before it kept spamming the dumb poison mist move and resetting it's hp to zero. PAIN Luckly I did beat this, ONLY TO FIND OUT THERE'S A HADER VERSION OF THIS FIGHT, WHHHYYYYYY??????!?? i beat that too, but after many tries and more PAIN.

[@Ometecuhtli13thGate]

This game is pure nostalgia for me when i was a teen man. Good stuff.

[@chaos.family.7814]

Im so glad that someone is playing this game! Genuinely my favorite Pokémon ranger game. So underrated

[@gowonfan12]

last year i played Almia for the first time ever and I'm glad to see someone else had as much as me filling out the browser 😭♥️

[@Mikey-ct3qf]

Wow this game is so nostalgic to me. Good work man!

[@backpackerraden6268]

I did a 100% a few years ago (beat story, all missions and fill browser). Fwiw there's a Celebi you can catch as a reward for clearing all missions

[@wishwriter03]

Love your chill narration and your play throughs of some Pokémon deep cuts. Keep up the good work!

[@swagblu4727]

This game was one of the first games I ever played when I got my 3DS I love it so much :') I've watched your Pokemon conquest vids and I'm really happy to see you do Shadows of Almia! Also you can beat Keith in the bidoof competiton lol

[@aedaniammx7559]

Ranger series is so fun! I’d love to see you 100% Guardian Signs, where you have to beat like 50 timed missions meant for 2-4 players, with a level-up system to grind, and a dead online service to match :3

[@finnjay6149]

God, I hated those missions haha. Aren't some of them completely impossible alone though? At least to 100%.

[@malgai]

This was my first owned Pokemon game as a kid, and I remember within the span of 2 months I casually 100%ed the game 3 separate times

[@Plexxis_SugarPom]

I actually replayed the game a few hours ago. Brings back so many memories! This was the first ever game that I fully completed the story of, so it is held dear to my heart. You have no idea how much I want to readapt this specific game as a comic or something, solely so I can make it more popular (and also I want more appreciation for Sven and add more depth to the sinis trio since their only traits are woman with pink sauce hair, femboy elsa, and gruff brute kidnapper!) Would absolutely recommend!

[@azrael5839]

FEMBOY ELSA-

[@Plexxis_SugarPom]

@@azrael5839 oh shoot i totally forgot I called him that... Still accurate!

[@pokelogikx]

The first game did in fact reck my touch screen. It was also probably the best structured of the Pokémon Ranger games once you got through the early game.

[@daniel-qi7mu]

SUCH a good game. I miss this era of Pokemon spin-offs. Great video!

[@JTRogue151]

Thank you for reminding me I hated those Gligar trying to stab you to death causing you to fall off the vines most annoying part of that area

[@Randomdudefromtheinternet]

My, the memories coming like a torrential flood. Thanks dude.

[@ducktor6160]

Yet another great video! Man I love these games, Pokémon Rangers always makes me so nostalgic, I used to rush through the same 3 games over and over, replaying the whole saga non-stop at summer vacation as a kid 🥲

[@fmclueless788]

I remember when capturing Darkrai I left a scratch on the final loop. It was such an amazing game and I will never forget it.

[@alakazamlover4908]

11:26 this...boss....fight toke me LITERAL MONTHS to beat and many many wrist cramps

[@JTRogue151]

Also loved how the final three Pokémon in the arena were a callback to the original game

[@sugasnaps]

This is one of my favorite games of all time, so finding this video in my recommended was such a treat! Excited to watch this!

[@dropthebates]

After I played this game when it came out in elementary school I had a teacher named Ms. Kincaid in middle school two years later who I once heard say “no running in the hallways” and I knew we had come full circle

[@dropthebates]

Also the amount of inside jokes in this game that stay around until literally the end game is so much fun

[@6z509]

Pleaaaase I love how you narrate your vids, I cringe at the overly energetic voiceover on other game channels. You have an amazing vibe :) happy to see another vid from you!

[@doodlemicz]

This was the FIRST EVER pokemon game i ever played. I chose pachirisu and i played it at such a young age that naturally pachirisu is my favorite pokmeon even now :-) this video gave me so many good memories! Id like to replay it someday

[@pablomartin1215]

my favourite type of podcast 10/10 keep going dude you are doing right :D

[@calebstearns5571]

Rangers of almia is easily one of the best pokemon games we’ve ever had, hippoptas trivializes the post game almost completely aside from the flying catches. Could of probably gotten a s on regiggas if you used hippoptas instead of porygon-z

[@Anirossa]

I had forgotten about playing this game as a little kid, but remember it when I see it, so weird. Really cool little game

[@Dzyntara]

Guardian Signs is my 🐐 so I'm super excited for that game! Awesome video and new subscriber gained 👌

[@shinyoshawott11]

to this day, this is my absolute favorite game out of anything i’ve ever played on any console. i’ve played it thru like over 50 times (srsly) and i never get sick of it. it’s literally pure perfection from start to end. i absolutely adore it

[@Riinkz]

I love this game. It was my first Pokemon game and it will forever be my childhood.

[@cfunited6885]

The dialga and palkia missions were so sick too

[@UFORelaxo]

One of my favorite games of all time! I really wish I didn’t lose my copy when I was younger but I did get the Manaphy egg and stuff from it. I also don’t have the Manaphy anymore due to my copy of SoulSilver not working anymore, but the game was a blast!

[@tidaloctoling715]

I loved playing this game when I was young! But one silly thing I thought was when your stylus broke, you'd have to retake ranger school for some reason xD

[@konumbra]

this was my favourite game for me as a kid :) it is still in my top 3, nostalgia holds a tight grip

[@alakazamlover4908]

THE OUTDOOR CLASS!!! not when crawford goes, but when YOU the PLAYER goes is like the BEST part of the games causal parts IMO damn now i wanna boot this game up............... and im gonna because i can :D thanks Indutro, now to find my stylus to destroy my touch screen

[@syco7274]

I love this game, my favorite pokemon spin off and maybe my favorite pokemon game ever

[@yellowned]

Always enjoy your content

[@doktorsmiles2034]

Touch the Bidoof.

[@glouis499]

This was such a good game back in the day

[@blackdot105]

I respect that intro

[@BradlesDLC]

Such a lovely intro 😊

[@RoyalGuyful]

Such an underrated game. Gotta do Guardians signs next

[@DarkraiDrive]

As a child the rampardos quest had me stuck like crazy

[@SymphonyZach]

I can’t watch this now but all I can say is good luck lmao. Been there done that never again. I gave up on guardian signs

[@fddude96]

Time to fiddle with the keyboard 😂

[@tubbytubbersun]

Yoooo I love shadows of almia!

[@clafoutis89]

Lmao the drapion was hell when i was a kid😹

[@kres6009]

I haven't watched your videos in months and I thought you had a rebranding for a second there lol

[@emblembirb8994]

bro your voice is so soothing its like asmr mixed with a video to pay attention to

[@saint_snake]

Happy this got so many views, I just finished replaying the game. So many good memories

[@DarkDesperado25]

Never played this without 100%ing it, I dont half-ass my ranger duties

[@eskalybubc8638]

I had the itch to play this game again, playing with mouse and keyboard kept me from it, love to randomly see someone like me, will watch this with some popcorn TY

[@mynameiscal3478]

This game is amazing, ranger 1 is classic but this game blows it out of the water. I hope you give guardian signs a chance, I’ve never seen good coverage of that game

[@adrianolini1889]

Unironically my favorite Pokemon game ever. This was the first game i ever finished

[@AlbertoCiarrocca]

I think the downloadable palkia mission was the best one in the game

[@silverhetch3383]

one of my favorite pokemon games

[@jacobcharsky4050]

when i played this game as a kid I could never get past the drapion fight it was so hard for me. I eventually returned the game cause I couldn't get past that part and I regret that I did it

[@byHexted]

I just ordered a used DS and the first Pokémon ranger online bc I was so nostalgic for it, it was my first game for the DS I got them together in like 2006 and I loved it so much. I played all 3 but obviously sold all that shit when I became a teenager but now that I’m in my mid 20s I’m yearning to replay them lmao

[@byHexted]

Pokémon ranger showed up today but the DS hasn’t shows up yet so I can’t do shit 😂

[@draco7820]

I always thought your voice was kinda boring for long videos but dear god that energy at the start?!?! Nah man that's not you, you were right keep doing what you always did i love the chill voice

[@alakazamlover4908]

waited till my 100% run of this game was done, but im back to rewatch this so....yea

[@samh466]

That fucking drapion....

[@reformeddoomer6777]

I always wanted to play this game when I was a young lad.

[@hugivachit6441]

This game just needs wrist strength? Sweet I've been practicing for it my whole life

[@notscorchingsands9718]

People who are complaining about mashing "a" in the main series have never played this game...

[@NerosCosmic]

LOL I was so confused when i heard the intro, i was like did i click the right video? 🤨

[@danielpruitt8550]

Me and my younger brother loved this game!

[@alakazamlover4908]

28:43 i cheesed this fight with steel-assist steel assist pauses the enemy, which makes them unable to attack the shockwave it does with each step counts as an attack, loop a bunch to charge up the ball, then hit it, and if you've done every quest, then very likely your assist will last like 45 seconds

[@UPGAX]

Honesly my favorite pokemon game

[@bluemax5858]

I never got past the Ramparts as a kid lol

[@Direblade11]

BRO. The reason I'm watching this right now is because I'm home from work after I sprained my wrist replaying the game. P.S. My circles are tighter than yours are, nerd!

[@poobise]

underrated

[@asg__]

Love this game

[@bittnerbot1]

I understand your *ehm* DS is a little finicky so I assume you were using external hardware. Please tell me you used a drawing tablet and not a mouse. I gave myself carpal tunnel grinding spins on osu.

[@lyde9272]

Dude even your "KZbin voice" at the beginning gives off retirement vibes😂

[@Indutro]

Dammit

[@professorkindred9533]

The Pokémon ranger games were peak Pokémon we need new ones

[@Auralegends]

This game was the best Ranger game by far

[@artseyy]

Knew you’d cover it

[@nitromiyazaki]

It’s a shame you couldn’t do the DLC quests. One of my favorites was Shaymin. 😊

[@FatedTim]

I’m not gonna lie, I thought I clicked on the wrong video during that intro and had to double take

[@loybay2638]

awesome

[@garchompelago]

2 things I like from this game. 1. Instead of doing specific number of loops that reverts back to 0 if you fail, Pokemon have HP bars now. Its so dumb that you cant keep the progress of your loops in the previous game. That Eruption spam from Entei was ridiculous. 2. Pokemon dont hide offscreen anymore. Seriously, who in the game devs thought it was a good idea to allow Pokemon to hide off screen in a game where youre supposed to loop at? I cant wait for your Guardian signs video. I remember being a weeb feeling as if I am summoning Pokemon like Naruto characters summon their animals ninjas.

[@carlolo8198]

[@HippoRainGuardian]

How do you use the stylus on the PC

[@Plexxis_SugarPom]

Usually a mouse. I’d assume.

[@ericsanders9847]

I wish that that they would make a Pokémon Ranger collection and make a new game for the series

[@riceland1]

what is the music playing at 9:38

[@KYOSHIN_FPS]

favorite pokémon vids, if ur looking for an interesting gen 5 play through blaze black 2 redux is super fun

[@andybrie5753]

Where can I buy it?

[@blackpinktwt]

are u gonna do the next game.. please say yes
