Do you remember your FIRST Pokemon Team?

Do you remember the first Pokemon game you ever played, along with the first team you ever used? I decided to go on a bit of a nostalgia trip and show off my first Pokemon team I used, and see how well they battle against Pokemon Stadium's unfair battles...

[@bubbee9382]

To answer the title, not really. The only thing I remember is having an overleveled starter Pokemon and a bunch of underlevel ones.

[@mintystingmoon4787]

and having every move being the same type

[@superkirby49]

I think I had a Chikorita which I'm glad about

[@tadeopena8009]

It was the same for me because it was only a Blastoise at level 100

[@seansean792]

I will always hate heatran for softlocking my child mind 😅 "I know what I have to do but I won't do it" and then my brothers 3ds was stolen with the cartridge inside

[@christopherjones7196]

I distinctly recall a few of the first ones I ever trained. Zapdos, Raichu, Mewtwo, Venusaur, Snorlax, and Lapras on Red, and on Blue, I just had an overleveled Blastoise and Electrode decimating EVERYTHING in the game.

[@SlyBluepaw]

...the fact your cartrigde STILL WORKS is amazing.

[@47slogra]

yes aren't the batteries on cartridges ran out some time ago?

[@ShadowtheYouTuber523]

He's definitely smart enough to get around that.

[@KingOfSkill]

yea it's kinda stupid how my old consoles and cartridges work perfectly still, but my Wii U is completely bricked because I didn't use it for a few years lmao (yes that;'s a thing with Wii U)

[@SuperSaiyanDCG]

​@@KingOfSkill no wonder that shit sold poorly.

[@HoodedUlTi]

​@@KingOfSkill THAT CAN HAPPEN?! Nah that's ass 💀

[@DaDMonDCB]

"TAKEN DOWN ON THE WOOORD GOOO". The nostalgia hurts it feels so good. That announcer was Goated. XD

[@danielpayne1597]

"What's the matter, trainer?!"

[@solidzack]

That was brutal!

[@palitodequeso1234]

More than 20 years later and this game still have the best battle animations ever, with a dynamic announcer narrating the battle in the background mind you.

[@noahfuller4128]

well it and its successors (collosum xd, battle revolution)

[@UltimatViolet]

And then Battle Revolution took all of that and cranked it to 11

[@benthemother3fan884]

Give Game freak a break. They're an up and coming indie studio

[@DaveHerman.]

I say pokemon sword also had some extremely good animations

[@user-ICY-Andreid]

0:37 "our master is back..., Took you long enough huh?"

[@ghostrangerz8273]

“Kept you waiting, huh?” - Brent

[@SuspiciousTemmie]

We NEED more videos of Brent playing games from his childhood, this video was so wholesome

[@gilreygu98]

time to summon mario party vs his mom to see the true final boss of mario party

[@SuspiciousTemmie]

@@gilreygu98 Oh my god, if he actually got his mom to play Mario Party with him that would be the best video ever I would rewatch it so many times

[@zombeef3074]

TAKEN OUT AT THE WORD GO!! A SAVAGE HIT!!! WHOA!!!! WOW, TAKEN DOWN WITH ONE HIT!!!!! Pokémon Stadium commentator is the best hype man of all time and you can't convince me otherwise

[@sidecharacter7165]

I love listening to the music too. Game was great, and I loved the adapter s o you could play reb or blue version on the television screen

[@RyanIsFunnyAndEpic]

The battle revolution announcer has my vote, but this is a close second

[@m4yr4i]

He's so good, his voice lines appeared in Smash Remix, a mod for smash 64 that adds ton of stuff. Its one of my favorite settings to turn on, and its amazing with friends.

[@Getgaming750]

1:08 even from the beginning Brent was strategizing the most op combo

[@KingOfSkill]

Honestly I literally just copied the Mewtwo boss's moveset LOL (except I had recover instead of Rest since I didn't want to fall asleep, and Mewtwo is so tanky in Gen 1 that recover is realllllllly good on him)

[@slycooper759]

I like how the pokemon are more expressive in this game even when they faint. They actually faint instead of tilting their head back like in the modern games

[@TCStink3]

Genius Sonority was the best

[@solidzack]

Some of these animations are actually nuts. Like Parasect or Squirtle using Take Down or Kabutops using Mega Kick. You can tell a lot of time, effort and passion was invested in that game

[@KombatRacer]

Yes. My first game was Pokemon Diamond in 2007. My team was Torterra, Staraptor, Luxray, Floatzel, Rapidash, and Dialga. As you can see, my team was a very unique Sinnoh team 😂

[@rjante2236]

To be fair, Diamond and Pearl had like zero other options. Gotta love the Fire-type Elite Four with two Fire types.

[@MrOz1705]

I started in platinum and my team was: Empoleon, Starraptor, Roserade,Rapidash,Lucario and Giratina... But then i saw Honhckrow and my team changed. Gen 4: Empoleon, Roserade, Honchkrow, Bronzong, Lucario and Bastiodon. (Got lucky that i got Armor Fossil in Platinum)

[@zacharylandrum4789]

Even in Platinum, they didn't really fix the problem. I did recently played through Platinum for the first time with a team of Magmortar, Lucario, Garchomp, Azumarill, Umbreon and Porygon-Z. And it was surprisingly fun to use a varied team in Sinnoh!

[@Magic_Ice]

@@rjante2236tru, which is why you don’t use any fire types

[@marcusj.2758]

To be fair, Diamond, Pearl & both remakes dont give off too many new pokemon until you get all 8 badges

[@eliudac6490]

The announcer in those games was absolutely great

[@raveastjennifersandy9220]

Shout out Ted Lewis! 🎉

[@German.c26]

Yes best in the series so much energy and hype

[@Dudfruit]

To answer the title, my first game being Black/White I remember beating the game with a team of Archeops, Zekrom, Druddigon, Galvantula and two other Pokemon I couldn’t remember.

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

As for the answer to the title, my first ever game was X/Y, Pokemon Y specifically. So for my first team was: Chesnaught, holding a Rocky Helmet, and the moves Seed Bomb, Brick Break, Bulldoze, and Spikey Shield. Blastoise, holding the Blastoiseite, and the moves Surf, Iron Defense, Ice Beam, and Protect. Talonflame, holding the Sky Plate, and the moves Fly, Roost, Flamethrower, and U-Turn. Dragalge, holding the Leftovers, and the moves Dragon Pulse, Thunderbolt, Substitute, and Sludge Bomb. Golurk, holding the Spooky Plate, and the moves Shadow Punch, Iron Defense, Earthquake, and Rock Polish. And Lucario, holding the Lucarioite, and the moves Aura Sphere, Flash Cannon, Calm mind, and Poison Jab.

[@dangerboatsouth4747]

Generation 1 was a wild experience. Janky mechanics, broken Pokemon, absolutely brutal and unforgiving effects. It really felt different, and I love it for that. That’s not to say the later generations are bad, they have a ton of good qualities about them, but nothing will rival to sheer jank of Red, Blue, yellow, and stadium. Also great video overall, I forgot you were a pokemon fan, or at least a gen 1 through presumably 4 fan. It would be nice to see this type of content in the future, it’s a good vibe. 19:33 also if your wondering why Zapdos outsped, it’s because mew only has 100 speed. Zapdos naturally has way more.

[@danielpayne1597]

Gen 1 also had the best glitches. Missingno for infinite items AND you could catch two Level 142 mons that were unique to each cartridge. Mine were Snorlax and Electrode. What's better than a Lv 100 Explosion? A Lv 142 Explosion :)

[@KingOfSkill]

Zapdos base speed is also 100, it ties with Mew. I guess my Zapdos was just crazy lol

[@user-ICY-Andreid]

The fainting animations on this game are the best ngl!

[@smashmallow1012]

Boy you should see battle revolution

[@user-ICY-Andreid]

@@smashmallow1012 Okay!

[@LightFaber]

Fun fact: Due to Gen 1 being held together by string and tape, using Focus Energy actually LOWERED your chance of critting

[@TheNadroj10]

That was fixed in Pokemon stadium

[@im___fann5063]

14:44 that ain't Birdboy, that's Gen 2 Lance

[@marioortegosanz1614]

Except with the 3 legendary birds instead of the Dragonites

[@dollarcoinaudio]

"What'll it do?" "Nailed the weak spot!" "WHOA!" "Ride that Surf!" "Taken down on the word go!" "Here's a Pokémon change." "Major damage!" "And there goes the battle!" Thanks for the nostalgia trip, Brent! 😃

[@linodolphin7948]

PLEASE do more stuff like this! The vibes of these old games are awesome and I love Gen 1 Competitive Pokemon so this is sick!

[@pyrusflare9710]

King of Skill nuzlocke in the future? Also this game is so nostalgic for me and was fun to watch this vid

[@CyanLater]

Don’t worry about the quality, it’s honestly impressive that you have hanged onto this kind of software/hardware that’s at least still in a playable state. Pretty cool how you used your own Pokémon, never really seen a gameboy used by my cousins so it was mostly rental/minigames for this and 2. Though plan to back up your old stuff well digitally considering that a hardware break can happen and boy would that be sad to lose it all due to age.

[@skyltie]

Oh yeah, white two. Lucario, magnezone, arcanine, starmie, metagross and flygon, my current favourite pokemon. I have a fun story with him, i encountered a wild vibrava right after you get the master ball and my older brother started screaming at me "OMG THIS IS THE ONLY LEGENDARY POKEMON THAT EVOLVES CATCH IT NOW" and i whipped out the master ball. Gotta say, thanks bro.

[@jomuelrivera-torres6303]

TBH, I first played Pokemon Leaf Green as my first Pokemon Game, if I recall, my team was Venusaur, Slowbro (It was shiny, I freaked out when I got it in a game with very low shiny odds), Arcanine, Zapdos, Tauros, and Mewtwo (Mewtwo replaced my Rhydon). It's great that I get to see one of my favorite content creators play Pokemon Stadium. Keep up the good videos!

[@dmrlongbow3719]

3:33 zapdos Cast thunder spell on the evil vaporeon princess

[@lumineinfinitussilverkagat8094]

Great vid, the quality was great and it was fun seeing Zapdos destroy prime cup, would love to see more Pokemon Stadium vids

[@maxx_espresso2508]

More Pokémon Stadium plz, this was really fun to watch :)

[@Asura-vj3wn]

The first Pokémon I played to completion was Pokémon diamond and it was a great time, my team was Infernape, luxray, staraptor, gastrodon, dialga, and garchomp. This video hits different for me since u are enjoying and reveling in the nostalgia. This is an amazing vid King of Skill.

[@bluererry]

Banger Vid Brent would love to see more pokemon vids in the future.

[@TKG785]

My first game was Pokémon Platinum, and my introduction to Pokémon as a whole. I played Diamond & Pearl afterward. My team: - Torterra - Togekiss - Lucario - Luxray - Floatzel - Flareon Diamond: - Empoleon - Garchomp - Roserade - Magmortar - Honchkrow - Scizor Pearl: - Infernape - Electivire - Staraptor - Mismagius - Gastrodon - Carnivine

[@alexander1274]

No way, I was just watching a bunch of pokemon vids and you upload this. 😂

[@CPTgamefreak]

Seeing an old quality of a game from long ago still looks amazing! Keep up to vids man. Bring the memories of the past alive!

[@Foxfire7772]

Growing up like an only child with this game, this was SUCH a throwback! I especially love coming back and seeing just HOW animated the Pokémon and move effects are, it actually makes it feel more like a battle. I always thought about how cool it’d be to see poke battling content from you and the other fellas (I know Eevee’s done some). Early gen 1+2 battling is so different than now, its funny, and having Brent’s sense of humor and editing for it is so GOOD. Don’t worry about the fuzz, it makes it more nostalgic lol. I’d watch a 280p vid from Brent

[@SuperAwesomeToaster]

My first game was Platinum Torterra Staraptor Luxray Rampardos Giratina and for some reason Lumineon.

[@marcusj.2758]

My first game was Pokemon Y when I was 7. My team had Chestnaught, Raichu, Chandelure, Hawlucha, Mawile & Aegislash

[@fromtheheart2448]

I do enjoy your game overviews and look forward to more in the future!✨

[@LeftHook-em6rv]

YES, A POKEMON STADIUM VIDEO Would love to see more Stadium videos from you, including trying out the rental Pokemon Maybe you could even do some Stadium battles with the other Party Crashers!

[@thermaster1209]

*Me who hasn't played a single pokemon in his life* O-of course! I remember when I was uh...8 years old! when I I had my team of...pikachu yeah my first pokemon and then I got charizard and and then I bought lucario for 5 coins.

[@matheusproductions.]

Answering the title:Yes, i kinda remember my team, it was in pokemon pearl, the team i remember using was:Empoleon, crobat, heracross, garchomp, and the other two i can't remember unfortunately.

[@littlejames911]

This game is always a nostalgic trip and I enjoy watching other people and seeing what team they use to win, great video Brent can't wait for more if you decide to do more 😎

[@N1shikki]

I am so here for pokemon content. Going back and revisiting old games is so cool and seeing you play different things than normal has been fun! My 3ds is bricked because I didn't use it for years but I'm keeping all the games in hopes that one day in the future, I'll be able to look back and see what teenage me was doing and have the same nostalgia hit you do here.

This video was awesome! I need more videos like this one

[@margravesharky1520]

I love the video! Honestly it was so sweet to see your team from back in the day. Gen 1 seems to have a lot of different strategy through the special stat and crit rate being based on speed, so I'd love to see more of your expertise. The quality was fine. I hope to see more, you seem passionate about this!

[@freedom-eagle5919]

I am so happy you uploaded this video. This game was my childhood and I loved hearing the announcer go crazy during battles.

[@JMRGBastard]

You should do more of these, trips donw memory lane, just talking about things you like. As always, good work.

[@azureflame7837]

Hey man, we love to encourage and see your passions, or at the very least I do. Please keep pursuing the things you love! Never be afraid of random upload ^u^

[@yobizin]

This is so cool! I always wanted a N64 and seeing you play on yours just made me want to get one more, and great video btw

[@rosebarrett1267]

This was awesome and the quality enhanced the experience in my opinion as someone who grew up playing the same games!

[@PoipoleBoi]

Would love to see more pokemon content from you, love your content as always🫶

If anything, im shocked the battery in the cartride was still working and preserved ur safe! nice video :)

I would really love to watch more videos of this style!!!

[@inkymera89]

Yooooo! This is a cool video! I remember playing on stadium as a kid at my grandma's house, but I didn't have a blue cartridge. So I had to go with the random pokemon. I'm glad to see someone talk about one of my childhood games.

[@MegamanNG]

Pokemon Stadium. Such good times. Everything about this game is just so awesome. I remember getting it when I turned 14 years old and yes, the first game lets you use Pokemon Red, Blue & Yellow via Transfer Pak. The Prime Cup though... jeez. No restrictions here. Although if you brought Mewtwo, he is that busted. Also Special stat was busted and that made Psychic Pokemon that much more powerful. It wasn't until Gen 2 where they split the stat down the middle. Honestly it worked out. My Poke Cup team I used was in Yellow: Pikachu, Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Nidoking & Fearow. I like variety in my teams. Hope you do Stadium 2 though. That's when the real fun starts. Plus having the announcer that was the narrator in the Pokemon anime is just perfection.

[@Yac0b]

Woah random pokemon stadium upload is so goated. This game was a big chunk of my childhood lol cheers bro !!!

[@snowyzorua]

This was a treat for me. I still sneak stadium announcer voicelines into my own videos from time to time. Please do more!

[@Guyotee1316]

That’s a nice trip down memory lane. Also, don’t worry about the footage quality as long as you get to show your skills!

[@EddieTale32]

I remember being introduced to Pokemon with this game back in 2013, and I’ve been into Pokémon ever since(Porygon and Jolteon still in my top 5 favorite Pokémon). Thank you so much for the nostalgia Brent🥲(seriously!)

[@reiji7345]

Another great vid with a blast from the past. Also, i'm not sure if stadium fixed it, but if memory serves focus energy is one of the many gen1 bugs and actually halves your crit lol.

[@joseoh5856]

I loved it !!! Would love to see more of this game :D I really didn't mind the quality btw Also, would love to see you play some pokémon challenge run or something, getting the chance to see you strategize and get your way out of difficult situations and all that :]

[@sharpy121]

This is a great video. 👍

[@roseku2491]

3:28 That gave me a good laugh because back in high school I use to have that scream as my notification whenever I get a message or someone I subbed to uploaded,hell it even scared some of my teachers lol. Aside from that,I had a hell of a time playing this game’s stadium mode,but never got the chance to unlock the mewtwo fight considering the cartridge was lost. Once I do get another cartridge,I’m gonna have to get myself a game boy color as well as red/blue. To make the grind easier for me(let alone having to do a repeat with the GBA games plus the add ons with Colosseum & Gale of darkness hoo boy that’s gonna cost an arm & leg).

[@authorbat5562]

This was the definition of nostalgia, especially the fact that you used your original team from childhood. I wish I kept mine from my first three generations… and generation five… I got better at keeping them when I got a DS. I would definitely love to see more of this.

[@lucina2111]

ZAPDOS THE GOAT God I love this game. Round 2 gym leader castle with rentals was the bane of my childhood…. Thanks for the content Brent! Loved it.

[@StarShade_44]

While I didn't grow up with Pokemon, watching you play this game and the Paper Mario 64 streams really take me back to when I was watching N64 let's plays as a child... on a time where 360p was the best quality we had lmao,. But I think most people watching would agree that this game's quality wasn't a problem at all! Can't wait to watch more videos like this

[@lcjoker24]

That was an awesome video Brent, I honestly didn’t mind the low quality and audio. It was cool showing us the game you enjoyed playing as a kid. It would be cool to see more videos like this.

[@mr.frigid8102]

Unironically I've been enjoying the variety of Nintendo content you've been doing recently! I'd love to see you play through another mario and luigi game before Brothership comes out. I loved watching through your supercut for superstar saga.

This is something I'd never expected to see I'm hyped for this

[@elemental201x5]

It's been years ever since I played this game at my cousin's house. Honestly, I would like to see more of this since this is nostalgia for me as well and it's nice to see different games King of skill plays.

[@alejandrocastro9189]

Man! Thats a great game. It's a very Nice You play this on a video. Good retro games.

[@NTroper]

To answer the title question, I remember packing Charizard Tentacruel Articuno Haunter (I did not have the Link Cable or anyone to trade with back then) Electrode Nidoking The Machamp scream at 3:27 sent me 😂 This game was my childhood. I would dedicate grinding in my Blue game to make as many good teams for this game as I could. Loving to see you playing this, Brent!

[@real_abender]

You don't need to apologize for poor quality when recording with original hardware. If anything, it adds to the ambience of the experience.

[@younesbougantouche4543]

More of this please 🙏

[@ludicolo15]

I grew up with this game as well, and then I finally tried out round 2 with rentals. It's such a brutal challenge, especially Pika Cup, but because of how charming this game is, I kept going and eventually beat it. Same with stadium 2. No matter how difficult these games, they are always such a blast to watch to me.

[@hideothehypno8024]

I always love seeing people playing their childhood games, and the quality of the footage didn’t bother me, in fact it strengthened the feeling. Safe to say I would LOVE if you made more videos on this game, and on just more of your childhood games in general! And to answer the title: Kind of. I know it was in Moon (before then I was really only a fan in then “Oh this looks sick” way) I don’t fully remember my team, and I don’t know where the cartridge is so I can’t check as of now, but I remember my team having: •Primarina •Xurkitree •Kartana •Golurk •Palossand

[@ThatNewZDude]

Honestly Brent. This is Nostalgia in a cartridge. Never had a little transfer so used rentals. But had the game when I was a kid. This'll be interesting to see you play with the other Party Crashers.

[@E-102GammaMKII]

Your Zapdos is a top tier! I didn't mind the low quality of the video, btw. It brings out that nostalgic feeling for us.

[@crashx9973]

Zapdos the MVP, good god. Also, more Pokémon videos would be sweet. Great stuff.

[@DarkestDion]

I dont mind the quality and sound of the recording, its authentic and makes the nostalgia stronger. Would love to see you the gym battles though, i believe theres no limits there too other than the CPU's pokemon level will match your highest.

[@Regibump37]

I don’t remember my exact first team, but I do remember the team I had when I tried to make a full team in Fire Red. Blastoise, Fearow (switched to Articuno later on), Raichu, Graveller, Hitmonchan and Raticate. While I don’t remember the movesets off by heart, I do know that I evolved Pikachu too early as I never had Thunderbolt on him, meaning it was likely lv25 when I got it.

[@ryanlordjanie]

I loved the fact that your pokemon used its move animation and then you find out if you missed or not. It added more suspence

[@Luoogi]

Bringing out your inner Eevee with that Zapdos You cast THUNDERBOLT

[@Nightmare_52]

stadium has the best animations, no question combined with the over the top announcer that i cant get enough of just makes it so awesome to play

[@felixdaniels37]

Title question, yes, it was a Platinum team composed of: Empoleon Haunter (Mindy's to be exact; took that thing all the way to the E4 unevolved out of spite) Tropius Porygon Machamp Luxray

[@Skylorule]

[@alanzambrano8644]

I remember first trying out Gold Pokemon and absolutely loving totodile, I also had an Ampharos (mareep) and a Furret (So cute!). Being honest I dont remember the rest, but those three were the core memory for my first pokemon.
