[@acaugusto07]

I subscribed because your pokemon is nicknamed subscribers haahahaha

[@Electrosa]

The funny thing about the guide describing HP as a measure of how "tired" a Pokemon is - is that's it's correct! Canonically, a fainted Pokemon isn't actually knocked out, they're declared too exhausted to battle and are taken out of the fight to prevent permanent damage. This is why fainted Pokemon can still use field HMs - they're not unconscious.

[@RedJuiceFishBowlMan]

I like this a lot, because I've actually never seen or heard anyone talk about the fainting mechanic in pokemon games. I am grateful for someone taking a chance at broaching the subject.

[@slugcat6226]

That’s probably also why we never see Pokémon die, they’re taken out of battle or another dangerous situation after fainting to prevent it. We’ve seen Pokémon graveyards though, so that probably confirms the fact that Pokémon CAN die.

[@zepuppet._.master]

It also shows in the newer games with how their idle animation slows down if their hp goes in the red (or if they get a status condition)

[@zepuppet._.master]

@@slugcat6226 I mean, in the sun and moon anime, we see (or can accurately guess) that Litten’s Stoutland friend dies

[@SchrollShepard]

That makes a lot of sense. Except if you "faint" (A.K.A. too fatigued to fight) a pokemon in the wild you can't catch it, so that whole thing makes zero sense when you start thinking about it for more than 5 seconds.

Funnily enough, X & Y were the last games I bought the guide for. That wasn’t a conscious decision or anything, I just didn’t end up buying the next ones. One detail I remember from the guide is that page about the Fairy Type that Sea mentioned. It said you could think of Fairy as the “light” or “magic” type. And it pointed out the logic of its type matchups - Steel type trumps Fairy because in some folk tales, fairies can be harmed by certain metals.

[@JubioHDX]

Yea thats something i figured out after a few generations passed 6, Fairy is more fairytale and less just the bright pink pixies that x/y made it kind of initially seem like. And in alot of old fairytales theres alot more gross creatures and the steel thing like you said

[@dragonslayer7724]

Another interpretation is that fairy is more of a "nature" type, hence the poison and steel (pollution and machines) weaknesses.

Regarding the Gardevoir moveset thing, it seems they simply assumed Gardevoir would have the 4 most recent moves from its learnset, which WOULD be true if it were either wild or owned by a random trainer. Important trainers' Pokemon, however, have custom movesets programmed, which is why it was different from what the guide writers assumed it would be.

thx for the heart PaPaSea!

[@jmart1nez]

Forget about the strategy guide, the gen 6 pokedex book is the true gen 6 book

[@peeface2963]

The deluxe essential handbook?

[@mata218]

I loved that book, I think it's still somewhere on my shelf.

[@tenzin9022]

Thank you FatherSea, these are some of my favorite long form video essays on KZbin. I love your candid writing style and how it translates into a narrative tone that would be almost awkward but ends up being entirely endearing. Keep up the good work!

[@josephmoore286]

If I recall correctly, the guide came out 1 to 4 weeks after the game was released.

[@peng1luver259]

The catacombs of Paris are mostly unmapped, so you can have a secret base rather easily if Lumious has catatcombs

[@Jack-496]

Finally, someone who respects Gen 6!

[@nareshkumar4810]

Gen 6 was a great gen ( only in pokemon design )

[@themysticleopard5705]

Yea, I agree. I personally think the story is great, and X/Y would be much better if it was followed up by Z, which would drag out the story more and make the games harder, like Platinum to D/P, or Emerald to R/S. Also, the designs for the Pokémon are fantastic.

The hammer away bit at the beginning made my day. Shall always remember the og guide writer.

[@14akamaru]

At 39:26, if you read it, it says that a Gardevoir at the level that Diantha had hers would have those moves, since those are the most recent moves, not the moves that her Gardevoir specifically has

I hope this comment goes unnoticed since I don’t really like to talk about myself. Around 2 years ago I got very ill. It was to the point that drinking water was the only thing I could do without pain. This lasted around 7-9 months. I remember being so hungry one day that I said if I eat small amounts over a long time then I won’t be in pain. I needed a long video to make sure I ate slowly and that video was one of your “playing a Pokémon game how Nintendo wanted”. I just remember the calming effect that your videos had on me. I remember seeing your video on the last few weeks that I was severely ill. By then I already had hope and was happy just to be able to eat small bits a day. Your videos will always remind me of the hope that still exists in even the most mundane of things. I still try to watch your newer videos but as I’m no longer sick I can actually spend time outside in the world. Some days like today I come back to listen to you as I fall asleep. Feeling that warmth of hope and familiarity still inside. Here’s to many more years of hope

[@tjakord]

Also somehow got unsubscribed from your channel which I just noticed :( that makes me sad

Gen 6 improved my life it was the only Pokémon game that made actually wanna interact with people both online and irl I managed to talk to someone that was willing to give me the version exclusive Pokémon and together we completed the pokedex that person eventually became my boyfriend thank you game freak for such a life changing game

[@Gwynbleidd1724]

Brought back some memories of playing these games. May have to give them another go

[@AniGaAG]

This one is especially funny to me, considering beating XY with a guide is like using a guide to walk down a straight hallway that already has staff guiding you forward and signposts plastered on every wall. xD

[@sladevalen]

Gen 6 is only surpassed by gen 2 for me personally. The only problem the gen has is the difficulty problem so one day I hope we get a good followup game/rom hack because the region is fantastic

[@fgetsuga0]

Same here. #1- Johto #2- Kalos #3- Hoenn

[@Chris-fz2ui]

I mean Johtos problems are gigantic you have like 10 mons that are viable to use the game is balls easy the level curve is shit and Johto is literally half the region because of Kanto. Almost all of the new mons appear in kanto for some reason which is postgame as do the evo stones

[@fgetsuga0]

@@Chris-fz2ui The "10" mon issue is because "everyone" collectively seemed to forget how to read or use their pokedex' or be for about the adventure. The majority of pokémon fans were kids so it was expected in later generations they were going to make more mons "available" to catch. There's Girafarig above Mahogany town. Tyrougue & Marill in Mt. Mortar. Chinchou in the starting town & many other routes and cities (with good rod I think 5% encounter rate). Magmar in the burned tower & Magnemite in route 38 right next door. Ursaring (gold), Skarmory + Donphan (silver) below blackthorn city on route 45. Corsola in olivine city as well as krabby, staryu, and shellder (usually just roll with totodile as my water type or pick up chinchou or poliwag). Heracross through headbutting everything to oblivion as well as pineco. You actually had to *think* in this generation to build a decent pre- elite 4 team (majorly due to GF' bizarre regional roster placements like *NO* dark types in johto except umbreon if you slow creep the pokémon league like really Gamefreak? 😕). Even still with gen 2' cut-n-dry problems, if it weren't for these games... Pokémon would have ended right then and there.

[@Chris-fz2ui]

@@fgetsuga0 3 of the mons you listed are gen 1 mons and most of them aren't even viable like come on are you going to be using a corsola? Also the fact that you were able to summarise every catchable pokemon in one paragraph just proves my point

Ah, Yes. Gen 6. I remember it fondly... I haven't even seen 3 seconds and I know it'll be a good one!

[@dpower6402]

I really enjoy how different things from the previous Nintended videos have influenced your scripting such as "hammer away" and "type trumping". Also Romulus the Lucario has made a showing in every Nintended video since the first time you used him.

[@mingaubr1417]

I wish we could choose the difficult on pokemon games, like it would make everybody happy and add more reasons to play the game again and again

[@Siinory]

Just hearing you mentionning Route 7 bring back so many PTSDs of going back and forth on that damned Route for eggs, either shiny hunt or competitive

[@Error_Detected404]

21:53 "something isn't wrong here" aight so we can just leave

[@vocalvortexstudios2058]

the reason the guide says Laverre Town isnt a good vacation spot is actually pretty interesting: its supposedly locked in one season all year round, and the clock face has thirteen hours on it, without any npcs seeming to realize that such a clock would be one hour later every twelve immediately. this suggests that theres something supernatural about the town, fitting of the alien-lookin fairy-tale gym leader i think the implication is that whatever is causing the supernatural events is not ENTIRELY safe, so for normal people who arent immediately at home there, it could be potentially hazardous to remain there for an extended period unless you intend to move there

[@xedalpha1]

I love X. It also reignited my love for pokemon after the DS ones started to feel ‘samey’. Still love it.

[@a_friendly_cup_of_coffee7003]

I think the reason behind not showing the pictures of some pokemon was that they wanted you to be surprised by the gym leader's ace. (It's the highest level pokemon that gets hidden)

[@PaPaSea]

I think they just didnt have the asset to show the pokemon otherwise they would have mentioned why they were missing

[@sunflow57]

I freaking LOVE Mega Evolution. A badass looking Pokémon that's also super overpowered? Yeah. I'm all for that. It's very satisfying for me alongside Z Moves.

[@aethertoast4320]

The most exciting new feature of Pokemon X&Y wasn't the Mega Evolution. It was the ability to sit down. That for some reason blew my mind, I was in college at the time of it coming out.

[@mellamobrianyo]

Honestly loved this generation - Delphox was also many fav starter.
