In terms of the games it really isn't, at least not anymore. People tend to look back a lot more fondly on Gen 5 now, mostly in part to how underwhelming the games have been since Gen 6 (I have been feeling this deep down for a while, but it wasn't really until this generation where I actually noticed it).

[@Chi3fFox]

It was my first Pokemon game

[@NikkoRic0]

Ok Ima sound rlly weird but I’ve never played Gen 5 games, so I can’t tell u otherwise. But what I can say was black and white anime was absolute sh** (imo and prob a lot of others)

[@itsafox9928]

@gorkamorka zorgamorga indeed it did

[@Kuint0n]

"We're underlevelled and outclassed but we have Krookodile so anything is possible." Never have truer words been spoken.

[@Hypertoniclemon]

Scraggy definitely is the MVP in this one

[@AndroidHarris]

Level is never stated in the anime so yes I think it's possible although grind will be an understatement. Also defeating everything with what ash did will be hard either way especially when ash actively sends out weak type advantages.

[@princebapalapashamalamadin7712]

it would have been funny if you decided to just use palpitoad for the first elesa battle

[@rosiejones7100]

I had 20 mins before practice earlier in the day, and was deciding what to do before I went, I saw this uploaded and got really excited, but then sad cause I couldn’t finish it before I left- so I decided to save it for tonight, and I gotta say, I’ve been super looking forward to this video all day!

[@gamerscout7452]

"only used ember" think he had smog or something similer

[@raghav6145]

I liked the theme a lot but I hate that ash as a lot of experience than any of his rivals or upcoming but still his mind reset to from start and you have earned a new subscriber.

[@AceOfSerberit]

"and despite being a fire type expert doesn't have flaming red hair"

[@cameronmcdonald3514]

The amount of effort put into this video is unreal He had to complete the game start to finish Had to basically watch the entire series to see what pokemon ash catches Obtain all the Pokemon ash gets Tons of research The most annoying thing for him would probably be the fact that every time a Pokemon levelled up he couldn’t evolve it unless ash had

[@drew_ytp]

I love unova but Ash's team there was such bullshit 😂

[@theannilators7479]

His team actually wasn’t even that bad, it was just unevolved. If he had actually evolved his team it could be great. But I did kinda hate that they, yet again, had the fire starter be Ash’s best Pokémon

[@drew_ytp]

@@theannilators7479 Yes thats what I meant by his team being bad. His pokemon are really solid but unevolved. And tbh I think Krookodile is the best, Pignite is okay but really can't compare

[@theannilators7479]

In the actual game Pignite can’t compare, in the anime Krookodile wasn’t really given any screen time after it evolved and Pignite was made out to be a beast. Watching it as a kid, Pignite legitimately felt like the new Infernape

[@53ra]

Unova was the best story out of all of the them, but the battles were shit

[@JStar55555]

Wow those Elite 4 battles plus the N and Ghetsis battles were tense asf! Very well done 👌

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

25:25 what about charizard? Sure Ash got him back in the ""Filler" Season (kinda funny how Chariard gets to have important moments in the filler seasons making it themselves not filler all by himself). .... wouldn't that mean winning White 2 with him back?

[@Subzerojosh]

How do you have the best narrations on KZbin? Like seriously the way you explain these challenges is top tier.

[@tntpower1019]

After completing all main stream games, can you attempt doing a Difficulty rom hack of the same. Same team just much harder levels and pokemon trainers. Might be impossible

[@viewer730]

this hits every one of my insane standards of a reenactment, those of which i though impossible to be reached. This was amazing, earned my like and follow

[@aghitsaplane4262]

I've seen people sweep entire legendary teams with caterpie Anything is possible

[@scottjohnson6124]

Please consider doing a "can you beat Pokemon..." using a Team Rocket duo team. Jesse & James, Butch & Cassidy. Love your videos and commentary. Way better than anything on cable TV.

[@maerski5171]

ash just catches every pokemon on his way huh? you'd think he's already accustomed to the 6 pokemon limit after being a trainer in 4 different regions yet here we are.

[@thatsprettyfarfetchd9888]

What's wrong with having more than 4 pokémon? It gives you wider variety to choose your team, it's more stupid not to do that

[@babosa75]

Ash keeps his team in rotation during Unova. It's kind of clear. He had Galar box link before it was cool.

[@memsterboy12]

Hi dude. I love this series. Just wanted to let you know you and your content are really appreciated!

[@thenerdbeast7375]

Why didn't you just hack Roxie to give her the team from the anime?

[@wovercomet9412]

That Scraggy IS the mvp. You must be real Ash of the real world!

[@catriamflockentanz]

12:49 You could say Ash's catching behavior is "Kris-talline" so far.

[@aurabender150]

I get the reference, and I love you for it.

[@jackkenny6376]

I don’t know if anyone else noticed but Pignite scoring a clutch knockout in Hydreigon is reminiscent to the exact way Pignite stopped Cameron’s Hydregion’s rampage in the Unova league, I think that’s pretty cool

[@lucidclanyt1525]

How did you do this? Get the specific Pokémon with special moves. I wanna try this.

[@TheJebus26]

Excellent work as always. The battle commentary is always the highlight

[@TsumeKyuudefunct]

Okay but imagine if ash decided to bring out a ghost type for lenora's gym

[@daphnerogers4277]

Can someone make that a comic?

[@externalpp7454]

The Thing is, He does not have Any.

[@benyager3355]

I really enjoy the commentary style you put over the battles, it ads just that little bit extra flare
