Ay thanks viva! means a lot, glad you liked it my friend.

[@JessYapping]

Milotic all the way that was gonna be one of my suggestions but I didn’t think doing all the setup for it would be done so Milotic would be cool and you can do a beauty contest episode😂

This is the one pokemon series that I'm super into. The gym battles especially are so entertaining, the script is fresh, and the editing makes these episodes so much easier to watch. Well done!

[@Dylxan327]

Ay that means a whole lot Miracle. Super motivating when I get grateful positive reinforcement like this in the comments. Glad you like it!

[@gg41451]

YES. Episode 8! This marks the final request of a whiscash named boat. Sharpedo is too freakin frail and eq by level up is crazy good so I think it makes sense. With that being said, I don’t think you should rely on a voters to pick the water type. Just choose the 1 you would like. Btw, barboach is found on the same route as the desert so if you end up picking it, you can just fish it there rather than needing to backtrack all the way to fallabror. I’m exited to see what you pick. I’m sure it will be great. My heart was pounding as I was watching titan rollout on the torkoal. My favourite gym is the same one as Donald’s. I just think it is funny that Wallace\Juan has a bunch of bitches trapped below the ice.

[@Dylxan327]

Good to know brotha I appreciate you. At the end of the next episode you will see some super hype progress on that water type. Hope you're looking forward to it. Glad you liked the episode! I've never thought of the gym like that lmao but yeah they do have a whole dungeon of hoes down there dont they

[@KoroaWasTaken]

I like the idea of a whiscash on the team too. It's certainly underappreciated and has a great defensive typing, bulk and access to earthquake. I wish he got more love than most people give him :(

[@gg41451]

@meatgrinder-oc8ow Hi :)

[@shakeandbaked1]

Yeah you probably have the best president ai series. Perfect amount of shit talking and friendship.

[@CostaZ_101]

Another Banger of an episode. The Flannery battle was great. For the gym battle against Norman, Slaking will be a big threat. However, I have a great strategy for this: When Slaking comes out, let it attack the first turn. During the second turn, make sure you already have Grovyle out or another Pokémon with dig. During the second turn, use dig and it will avoid Slaking’s attack next turn. Keep doing that until the Slaking is defeated. One thing is that you have to hope that the Pokémon with dig can survive the first turn. (Favorite Gym): I can’t decide on a favorite gym. However, I will list my favorite gym from each region: - Gen 1: Rock Gym (Basic but cool design) - Gen 2: Dragon Gym (I liked the design of it) - Gen 3: Water Gym (Liked the puzzle) - Gen 4: Steel Gym (The puzzle was an interesting concept with all the elevators) - Gen 5: N/A (Never played these games) - Gen 6: Electric Gym (I liked the quiz in this gym) - Gen 7: Fire Trial (I enjoyed the memory game and the questions that came with it) - Gen 8: Dragon Gym (I liked how players had to battle gun trainers that used different weather conditions in order to be able to battle Raihan) - Gen 9: Ice Gym (I was amazed by doing the snow slope run because it was a unique idea that Pokémon has never done before)

[@Dylxan327]

Hell yeah Costa! Dig is a broken strat against Norman for sure. I may or may not utilize that, I have to keep the hype of each gym battle strong yano. That's kind of this runs strongest characteristic at this point. And thanks for the opinion on the gyms! I agree with that one dude from earlier, you definitely need to play some gen 5 my guy! It's a top 3 generation for me. The story is GOATED

[@CostaZ_101]

@@Dylxan327 I never played Gen 5 because I never had the console for it (Unless it’s new Nintendo 3DS). I’ve seen it on KZbin before but otherwise, all I’ve done Gen 5 Related is Pixelmon and Gen 5 Showdown. I understand about the dig strat maybe not bringing hype during the gym battle. However, without a fighting type move on any Pokémon, it will be hard to win. Also, I’m wondering if you saw my comment about the discord server?

[@benjaminmorris6444]

This series has no right to be this good, literally can't stop watching. Great work on the script.

[@Dylxan327]

thanks man! Glad you like it!

[@Littledog0808]

Trapinch for the amazing Dragon/Ground Flygon. Sure it is frail to ice types, but as a dragon type it gets access to coverage moves like Flanethrower

[@Dylxan327]

Facts ground dragon is some good STAB, plus coverage in flamethrower and crunch is really solid.

Someone else in the comments said to nickname it Watergate I agree with them lol

[@Dylxan327]

Milotic for sure, that thing is a BEAST

[@Dylxan327]

big fax. Any mon that can be considered to be brought to the battle frontier is automatically a beast.

[@OmniVisionGaming]

I think Milotic would actually be a peak team member. It's unusual because of its rarity, and is super thicc. Plus, unlike Whiscash, it gets Recover instead of Rest. Super reliable mon, and very underrated. Love the content! :)

whiscash gang RISE UP!! sharpedo is a good pokemon but it’s defenses are crazy low unfortunately.

Whiscash defenses are 73-Phy and 76-Special,Milotic's are 79-Phy and 125-Special.The only stats whiscash has that are higher than Milotic are phy attack and hp.But even then both those stats are only around 15 points higher.Milotic is superior even if it's annoying to evolve it's a better tank and has mostly higher stats being able to be both a tank and with 81 base speed it can be a sweeper like Sharpedo who's speed's only 14 points higher.

[@ChronSoss]

My favorite gym is definitely a hard question, but I really like the Norman fight. I've always felt like it's so much more fun when they have gym leaders with good pokemon that actually make you have to think. People fear Whitney's miltank, but I think Norman's slaking probably takes the cake for the scariest gym pokemon in any game if you're unprepared for it. I really like vigoroth personally as well.

[@Dylxan327]

Normal types are the coolest type IMO. I was honestly a little disappointed with the Norman fight. He could definitely have a better team. Like the slaking is a great ace but come on, a spinda, linoone, and a pre evolution of your ace? Lot of great normal types that could've been in there like zangoose or exploud.

[@chespinparsons1660]

i really like elisa white/black 2, the fact you have to go through the old gym before going to the new fasion show place is cool. also sharpedo rules, design wise and with dark stab

Yeah only gym you have to go through 2 of to get to the gym leader. And for sure sharpedo's stabs plus ice beam is crazy coverage for late game emerald.

For my favorite designed gym, honestly, it’s a super basic answer. However I’d have to say Nessa’s gym from Sword and Shield.

For my water type pick, I'd say to go through the extra steps for a Huntail if possible. I've never, EVER seen one be used before and I think it'd be pretty neat to remind everyone that it exists. Though Whiscash is pretty funny too tbh

[@SillyLilFella]

Now that I think about it, an episode of trying to catch Feebas would be pretty funny. Crawdaunt is also a pretty forgotten mon as well

problem with huntail in gorebyss is they aren't available until like the 8th gym and am I really gonna wait that long to get my water type? I really don't wanna do that tbh. Feels like wasted potential. Also yeah don't worry I got something fun planned for feebas haha.

[@thewhitetigergod]

Nice battle! Can't wait for the special episodes. Secret bases and contests! Perhaps you could even go Legendary hunting and do a bit of the Battle Frontier. For the water type, Wiscash for sure, and last chance for Whiskers for the nickname. Sharpedo is just too frail, being a glass canon. And if Titan is getting the Earthquake TM, best to have another EQ user if Titan falls during battle, and Wiscash learns it via level up. I'm still trying to figure out George's Pokemon, and I think perhaps it might be a Psychic type, and the options that fit the best in terns of being underated are Grumpig and Chimecho. If it is Grumpig, name it Bbq, and if it's Chimecho, name it Venti. As for my favorite gym, ngl Gen 5 was choc full of good ones. The dragon gym's setup was definitely nice, as was the ice and flying one. The first gym was also a good tutorial and a good challenge since the elemental monkey you'd face was strong against your starter. X and Y, as mid as they were, had some pretty good ones too. Korrina's gym being a skate park was dope and I loved Anistar city's gym. That one is probably my favorite. For gen 3, Fortree and Sootopolis are definitely top tier.

[@Dylxan327]

Ay glad you liked the episode Tiger! Next couple episodes of this series are gonna be normal episode, then special, then normal, then special. So stay tuned. And I got you with those nicknames, more on the wheel for ya. Gen 5 did have a lot of banger gyms for sure. Fortree has one of the coolest cities IMO but I always felt like it could've played more into that with the gym. The gym seemed a little off to me.

[@jasonruth1790]

QOTD: My favourite design for a gym in Pokemon was/is/and always will be Sootopollis City. I always loved the idea of a final gym leader being not a super imposing stature or powerful presence. Wallace being a contest star, which is just a superstar, is the ultimate ladies man by his presense alone. A mix between his natural-born charisma and all that was taught to him by his Teacher Juan in Emerald(coming out of retirement retaking his students place of power when his student "moves on" like a saucy ass Sarutobi). They both fill the same role in Hoenn but from 2 generations of ages. It gave 3rd gen a real world feel when I was playing Hoenn as a kid. It was like celebs were worshipped back them so that showing in the game in a gym with "crazy" fans under the ice you have to tread on carefully, that would attack on sight, which he kept out of sight completely was a nice touch in hindsight. Also the puzzle got me for years as a little kid and I just ended up battling all of the women and running thru it with a pen and paper😂😂

[@Dylxan327]

Pretty cool take on generation 3 and the gym Jason! Never really thought about it like that. To be honest, I was always a little disappointed with how Wallace took over as the champion for emerald. It never really made sense to me, but I guess since Steven decided to just leave and go search for rocks someone had to do it. Why do champions always just disappear into a mountain.

[@jasonruth1790]

@@Dylxan327 I always thought only real champions leave the title because a real champion's hunger/drive is stronger than their duty, weirdly enough. Think about it; Red left because new pokemon and grinding is his, Steven left to find power in the earth and what power is forgotten there, Cynthia is constantly out of sinnoh trying to find both the creation lore and it's power, Alder travels his region to find his replacement as soon as possible in 1 while hinting that he is past his prime and wants to retire and teaches 2 chosen kids battle tactics in 2. I think those with the drive and mind to grind to the top of society and their field in a world with superpowered animals and constant gang violence, are those who'll use everything they have to make it happen. When they succeed they use the title champion for the next mission. I am always dissapointed with a champion like lance who jist wants to be champion for as long as possible, such a cool character to leave as the least cool of the 3 champions in kanto. Blue loses his title to Red and takes a gym and tries to learn from his mistakes and grow, Lance instantly becomes Champion after Red leaves. His is not a story of a man who wants to climb mountains, it is one who just wants to stand above all. Kinda poetic, the "best" of champions don't crave to be above others are the ones who either leave for mountains or live on mountains. Come to think of it unova and alola elite 4 are on a mountain and both are transitional champs who want to find the future of their region in the children. Lance, Diantha, Iris, and Leon fell off in that regard imo.

[@Galavantworks]

QOTD:2 My favorite gym is the Castelia Gym in B2/W2. Aside from the uniqueness that is Gym theme music in B2/W2, Burgh’s gym has my favorite theme, puzzle and design.

[@Athanatos3301]

If I had to choose between Milotic, Sharpedo, or Whiscash, I would go with a choice between Milotic and Whiscash. Sharpedo is unfortunately victim to its STABs being Special in Gen 3, meaning it cannot use Crunch or Waterfall to their full potential. Taunt and Rough Skin are unique, but pathetic bulk and a shallow movepool makes it outclassed in my opinion. It also competes with teammates like Mango and Sky for the glass cannon archetype; Mango is much faster and physically stronger thanks to Guts and STAB Facade while Sky is stronger and faster on the Special side and has better coverage. Milotic is my first choice because it offers a very nice special tank to the team, which complements Titan as a physical tank. Milotic is stronger than Sharpedo (100SpA vs 95SpA); gets access to Recover for longevity; has Marvel Scale, which makes burn/poison a non-issue alongside Recover; and a decent movepool for a Water-type (Recover, Ice Beam, Surf, Toxic, Safeguard, Refresh are the best options). Not only that but I believe that it synergies well with Flygon, a Ground/Dragon-type that can attack well on any side and is immune to Electric and Ground moves thanks to Levitate. Whiscash is the other option I’d go with. Whiscash’s raw stats are overall lower than Milotic’s (except HP), but the Water/Ground typing is incredible, being only weak to Grass in a game where Grass moves aren’t very strong. Whiscash gets strong STAB options like Surf and Earthquake alongside decent mixed attacking stats; Rest for a full recovery that can be paired well with a Chesto Berry or Sleep Talk (Surf, Earthquake, Rest, Sleep Talk is the set I’d go with); or even Fissure for a cheesy OHKO against something that seems troublesome. Whiscash also pairs well with just about any other type combination as well- if you didn’t want Flygon as your Dragon, a very powerful one later down the line opens itself up to you (not Altaria, the other one, Joe). It’s definitely between Milotic and Whiscash if you ask me. But whatever direction is taken, the Presidents are sure to make it work. Godspeed, gentlemen. Edit: my nicknames for them would be Marina/Mariner for Milotic (depends on gender) and Wesker for Whiscash.

[@Dylxan327]

Alright preciate the analysis my guy! I agree sharpedo is hindered by the lack of the physical special split, but you gotta remember its spatk is still like 95! That's still really good in this gen before the huge power creep in gens 4 and 5. That being said, you make some great points throughout this whole thing! I got those nicknames on the wheels for ya. Thanks again for the comment my man!

[@Galavantworks]

QOTD: Here me out guys. I’m down for Sharpedo, but I think Joe is right. The gang needs a bulky water type but Whiscash only has the HP but not the def to make the typing worth it. I’m thinking Tentacruel might be the better play long game.

[@Dylxan327]

Tentacruel is definitely one of the best water types in this game I agree. Available super early, plus you get sludge bomb for free after beating norman. I think it's only downside is the fact that's it a water type that can't switch into ground types, and a water type is going to be your best bet against those rock/ground pokemon. All that being said, this is a generation 3 pokemon only run! Just thought it would be fun that way.

[@Galavantworks]

@@Dylxan327 That’s a shame, Well then I’d say my second choice is Milotic. It’s a good bulky choice, plus it’s a great way to introduce the Contest grind at some point.

True dark stab is OP in the late game of emerald. And alright got that on the wheel again for you!

[@Reallytallsocks]

Flygon named Shukaku and Sharpedo named Sharknado. If not Sharpedo, Whiscash is a good option because It naturally learns Earthquake at lvl 36, but i have no names for it.

I think Mossdeep gym is my favourite. Vividly remember it being such a roadblock for 9 year old me that I restarted my entire Emerald playthrough. I'll always remember when I finally beat it with my Mightyena once I figured out Dark types were a good choice. Big achievement back in the day. Not to mention the design of the gym is neat and simple. It also has strangely memorable gym trainers like the ones with Wobbuffet and Girafarig. Oh and of course an unforgettable double battle for the badge. I think it's still the only double battle in any Pokemon game?

[@Dylxan327]

It's a run killer for sure! The gym is pretty cool too. Definitely the most difficult gen 3 puzzle.

My favorite Gym Leader is the 4th Gym Leader of Johto, Morty. He’s an interesting character with an interesting style and has an interesting Pokémon type team and also that Morty knows Eusine. It’s also interesting that Ecruteak City (which has an interesting name) has the Burned Tower where Ethan, Morty and Eusine see The Legendary Beasts inside the Burned Tower and last of all Ethan Battling the Kimono. I just love Ecruteak City.

[@Dylxan327]

true and sharpedo is huge in the emerald late game. Great STAB and coverage.

Not giving up on Chucky the Banette joining this team as a switch in if even needed but definitely needs to be in this team. In Hoen its an AMAZING staple to your team compliments your team as well.
