Can You Beat Pokémon Pearl Using the Exact Team That Ash Used For Every Major Battle?

Just about everything went wrong in the making of this video but it's finally here. After conquering Kanto, Johto and Hoenn, we've made our way to Sinnoh to test out Ash Ketchum's team selections. As ever, we're asking the question, "Can You Beat Pokémon Pearl Using the Exact Team that Ash Used for Every Major Battle?"
I had to go for Diamond and Pearl instead of Platinum so we'd have the correct Gym Leader order. I've been working non-stop on this video for like ten days so as soon as I finish writing this description, I'm going to sleep for like thirty hours. Thanks for watching!

Ash really put extra thought into team builds and new moves for Sinnoh.

He lost the battle anyway, but only due to plot necessity. He defeated two legendaries in that fight.

@@ralphnathanielcalamba2784 There's never been a reason to believe Ash would stop travelling if he won a league. He won the Orange League. He's champion of the Battle Frontier. He won the Alola League. And he's still going. Ash doesn't travel to win trophies. He travels because he loves Pokemon, friends, and adventure. That's how it's always been. Do most people who play the games stop playing Pokemon games forever after they defeat the Elite Four and become the Champion once? Of course not. They pick up a new game, put together a new team, and do it all over again.

[@ralphnathanielcalamba2784]

TrumpeterJen you’re right tho

[@dragondudeification]

Honestly, they should of made ash use more his strongest hitters in that fight, ex: Charizard, Snorlax and Glaie, have him when by the skin of his teeth then simply have him lose against Cynthia using his full sinnoh team (replacing pikachu with gible ) due to the ones in the fight with tobias to exhausted and hurt. I get at the time the writers probably weren't ready for him to win a league at the time but they could of made the lost a bit more tasteful and not so one sided, having most of his team getting sweep by a random character with no backstory. Though I will say that battle did prove how strong of a trainer he is by being possibly the first in the region to take out Darkai and latios while showing that Sceptile is a powerhouse. That alone is a accomplishment.

Also, here's a tip you didn't ask for: not sure if it counts for gen 5, but as far as I know, leaf storm can be an egg move, so that might help with snivy's moveset since you can't really use a level 43 snivy before the 2nd gym.

Love your vids man, your commentary during the battles makes everything more hype, and the performances from Torterra, Infernape and Staraptor were incredible

[@blazengrowlithe639]

I'm upset that Cyndaquil didn't evolve. It would have taken like 10 seconds to fight some random anime mecha and evolve Cyndaquil, but no you didn't. But for real great video keep up the work.

This is one of my favorite pokemon games

[@angeliio1395]

This was an excellent video, I’m enjoying these series, they are so cool, nice job man! Keep doing this! 😊

[@its_eventually]

just read the caption, thank you so much for your work dude!! have fun with your 30 hour nap, you deserve it for the amazing content 😉

[@zeuslevizapanta197]

Guys did you know that Ash is actually 11. In one of the special episodes aired with one of the Johto Movies Ash celebrated the day that him and Pikachu meet meaning that he had his birthday. The special episode was when Pikachu meet two Pichu's

[@RoninCatholic]

"Using moves to judge Ash's team doesn't really work" You imply it ever did. It didn't.

[@nightmarechevalier2529]

It did in Kanto.

[@andresquesada2425]

16:50 It's another WTFFF moment! I'm honestly supriced u didn't plan this out. It gives me chills 😂😂

[@OctaneAndAsphalt]

Been waiting for this all day!

[@lovinit203]

I booted up ultra sun to check the pokedex entry for cranidos and I can confirm that if it is a typo it's a consistent one as in ultra sun he is also known as the 'Head Butt' Pokemon 😂

[@cullenhutchison6528]

I thought Ash didn't have any trouble with Crasher Wake, taking him down without losing a single pokemon.

[@vanguardbreaker8826]

I think Turtwig did go down, but it _was_ the only battle in any season of anime where he won with more than one pokemon standing.

[@DanielPerez-jb7ti]

I discover u a few days ago n fell in love with challenges and so was waiting for this to drop

[@funkydinosaur]

These vids just get better and better; love your work ETU!

[@ulxTIMxate]

Actually even the double K.O. against Maylene was very faithful to the anime as he wasn't able to win against her there as well ;)

[@TimsOnlineZone]

7:00 The Pokemon games love equipping its regions 2nd gym leaders with a super powerful Pokemon. Whether it be Misty's Starmie, Bugsy's Scyther, or Gardenia's Roserade Broly: What the hell

[@TheTakato122]

Brawly's ace doesn't fit the theme.

[@shivenaggarwal9503]

I was waiting for this. Thank you FJ

[@hammy4269]

Dude you make my absolute favorite videos on this website. Keep it up!!!

[@thejuic3b0i64]

Gen 5 Ash is approaching and I’m scared.

[@tomcooney2842]

Paul was Ash's best rival that guy was op I was gassed when Ash beat him

[@laxusstrauss5945]

Well the only reason paul was defeated is infernape who always did great in the whole saga even as a chimchar it was boosted If ash didn't have it on his team it would have been smashed by only using ninjask and drapion

[@tomcooney2842]

​@@laxusstrauss5945 if I had to change Paul's team for the match would have probably take out his froslass and Ninjask and replace them with Torterra and Gliscor idk i thnik it would have been cool to see Ash's torterra go head to head with Paul's as a sort of apprentice v mentor type of battle, and instead of making Ash's one crap i think it could of been good if they drew as Torterra is a powerhouse but ash's is dissappointing and it would have been nice for him to either win or draw instead of lose eveytime he was sent out and give ash's Gliscor a rematch against Paul's for revenge

[@laxusstrauss5945]

@@tomcooney2842 dude ash's torterra wasn't crap The reason why it always lost is because it faced powerhouses Bertha's ace even with the type advantage elite four are boosted in the anime Drapion was a beast + torterra did more damage to it than staraptor and buizel As for electivire it was ash's fault he should have switched because of ice punch It would have been better if infernape wants up against electivire then torterra massacred both jolteon and luxray which both doesn't have any effective move against it

[@KaNgUrUhBR]

Love your long videos!! Keep up the good work man!

Good luck in Unova, you'll need it.

[@airreaper1]

I wonder how you would have faired against Cynthia in platinum. Her togekiss is a damn monster.

[@nishant9289]

Gliscor with Stone Edge isn't bad against Togekiss, especially because Gliscor is faster.

[@ep1633]

That fantina fight was legit plot armor lmao. The effort you put in these videos is seriously impressive

[@vanguardbreaker8826]

"The prospect of facing off with one anatomically unhinged pokemon with another" Thank you, I now have milk up my sinuses.

[@SinnohGreen]

You can’t even get Melmetal in Alola so good luck when you come to that

[@skylon01]

Sea Biscuit but he can still use greninja

[@SinnohGreen]

Sea Biscuit yeah but his Kalos team is viable af anyway

[@skylon01]

Lewis does a bit of shiny hunting with the exception of extreme weakness to rock and fairy

[@motodog242]

@@skylon01 >Has a Greninja and Hawlucha >weak to rock >Has a Pikachu with Iron Tail, and a Talonflame with Steel Wing (and a resistance to Fairy) >weak to fairy

[@Tragic64]

@@motodog242 most of ash's team is weak/neutral to ice and electric and none them have a good defensive stat to combat those types except goodra(who's only good defensive stat is special defense) so even if they resist a neutral hit they would still get heavily damaged but this is just me thinking competitively ash has plot armor so even if he had a team of just pikachu he could make it to the elite four at the very least

[@ian_velez]

9:39 top right lmao 😂

[@thegame4027]

That's my favorite video in that series yet. You'd make a great Ash with your decion making :p

[@Octoshark19]

I love all the work you put into your videos!

[@decayedwolf1997]

Good luck with Snivy, Oshawott, and Scraggy!

[@MattPrimePlayz]

yeah ash in the black and white was such a disappointment.
