Fixing the Kalos Elite Four

[@OKreations]

Hey everyone! So how did I do? Did I miss anything? Maybe I added something you didn’t like! Let me know!

[@TheAzulmagia]

To comment on something you said earlier in the video, I feel like a good baseline for team members is - Gym Leader 1: 2/3 Pokemon - Gym Leader 2 - 3: 3 Pokemon - Gym Leader 4 - 7: 4 Pokemon - Gym Leader 8/Elite Four: 5 Pokemon - Champion: 6 Pokemon That way, there's a steady sense of progression and intensity.

[@DespianGrimmPaldea]

@@TheAzulmagia Honestly Gym Leader 2 in some games can also go down the 2/3 Pokemon line, and 4 and 5 could also be in the boat of 3/4 Pokemon. Honestly depends on the Region and Levels of the individual Leader Teams. For Kalos, this is definitely the baseline that should be used.

[@guiledonrickboncodin5984]

I just think that diantha's team is consist of pokedex color theme... Hawlucha(green), Tyrantrum(Red), Aurorus(Blue), Gourgeist(Brown), Goodra(Purple), and Gardevoir(White)

[@DespianGrimmPaldea]

@@guiledonrickboncodin5984 Not just different colors, they also have different highest BSTs. Hawlucha's is Speed, Tyrantrum is Attack, Aurorus is HP, Gourgeist is Defense, Goodra is Special Defense, and Gardevoir is Special Attack.

Simple fixes; Give them bigger teams Give them Mega Evolution

[@OKreations]

Exactly

[@billynguyen267]

So I have a few issues with the Diantha team, it just mostly the composition and concept. So her team is based on the colors, stats (because each of her Pokémon have different highest stat and color) and the most important concept in my opinion, is character roles Hawlucha is green, represent the prince/hero, and speed stat Tyrantrum is red, represent the king and attack stat Aurorus is blue, represent the queen and the hp stat Gourgeist is the brown,represent the witch and defenses stat Goodra is purple, represent the dragon and sp defense stat And the Gardevoir is white, represent the princess and sp attack stat. So her team is actually really unique and full of concept and not random at all

[@billynguyen267]

So if I change her team then I would stick to one of the three concept, the stat one is Hard to do so I’ll cross that out, the color one is also really hard especially when she will have to overlap Pokémon with other trainer or use weak Pokémon, so I’ll build her team on the roles concept So her team will be: -Gourgeist: the witch -Florges: the queen Nidoking: the king ( she really need this one for her steel and fairy coverage) -Pangoro: the hero/prince ( in the Pokédex it says it’s a very protective Pokémon so it can fit the role pretty well, and it can be her body guard also help her with ice and ghost weakness) -Goodra: the dragon -Gardevoir: the princess

[@arrowblade_1238]

Dianthia’s team is not meant to be entirely in opposition to lysandres. Hers is supposed represent her as an actress, along with some beauty related stuff.

[@Pit_Icarus]

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but Diantha’s team is meant to represent different types of movie genres; Hawlucha is meant to represent action movies, the fossil Pokémon are meant to represent sci-fi, Gourgeist is meant to represent horror, Goodra is meant to represent fantasy, and Gardevoir is meant to represent Diantha herself as an actress.

[@DespianGrimmPaldea]

Huh.... I honestly did not realize that fact, and if I did, I honestly forgot that it was a tertiary theme with her team.

[@TheAzulmagia]

I know you said you were changing Lysandre's Mega, but I would still go with Blastoise as Siebold's Mega just to help distinguish from Lysandre and replace the Clawitzer with Lanturn. I just think Gyarados kinda fits the theme of Lysandre's character too much to drop, both from the whole "destructive rage that destroys everything" angle and the fact that Lysandre continually talks about how there are "chosen ones" in society that deserve to be praised, which fits the idea of the diamond in the rough Magikarp becoming a powerful "dragon".

[@nickdentoom1173]

While this is true, i can see the reason as to not give Siebold a Mega Blastoise though, as it would feel a little unfair towards Drasna and Malva if Siebold gets the Mega Blastoise starter, but they don't get Zard X and Y. And i feel like if you do that, you need to replace Mega Gardevoir for Mega Venusaur on Diantha's team, in order to have all Mega Starters having some representation during the League. Here Mega Aggron was chosen as an option, but we also have Mega T-Tar as a solid replacement for Mega Gyarados or if you give Siebold Blastoise and Malva Zard Y, Mega Houndoom for Lysandre would be an option too.

[@avrilrowland1913]

Another “fixing” video idea could be fixing all the rivals! Idk if that’s too many teams for 1 video, but i think it could be fun. Something I like about your videos is you don’t disregard the character’s personality. Since we usually get more character building from rivals but no specific type limitation, you’d only be limited to pokemon/strategies it feels like they would use based on their personalities. Cutesy, smart, underrated, quiet, etc. Could lead to fun character inspired competitive strategies, brainstorming how this type of character would approach a battle.

[@OKreations]

That would be super fun! I like that idea

[@MidoriNatsume]

A couple of observations: 1) Please give Starmie and Noivern a real abilities. Natural Cure and Infiltrator are not oppressive but do something. 2) Sturdy and Brave Bird clash too much for me, if we need to stay in the limits of Gen 6, I would settle for Drill Peck. 3) I would mix together X/Y and ORAS, to open up more mega options and give Gardevoir Hyper Voice. Have you noticed I have a fixation on optimizing abilities? 😅 For the rest, it's a very well made video. It has some realistic changes that could had totally been there if X/Y wasn't a rushed production, and still allows for normal play styles to work. And I appreciate that your comment addressing is less mocking then a lot of other KZbinrs. I like videos that don't constantly insult me. 🙏🏻

[@leonardofarias8843]

They could have added hidden abilities in a update

[@nhjohnston]

Those are literally the best abilities for Starmie and noivern tho 😭 Illuminate literally does NOTHING in battle, and Starmies speed stat is too high for it to make good use of analytic, and even if you do move first it’ll be a K.O. On Starmie so it’s pointless. As for Noivern, what good does frisk do for an NPC? And telepathy is strictly for doubles. And as for skarmory, yeah brave bird + sturdy might not be the best set up but turn one will be set on breaking sturdy so it works as a final gambit move. Keen eye is just… not good and weak armor does skarmory no good because if it’s only gonna survive two turns at most with sturdy then it’s definitely only going to survive two turns with weak armor and its speed is so slow it won’t even get do something with a speed boost.

Blue, HP = Aurorus (Sci-Fi) Red, Attack = Tyrantrum (also Sci-Fi) Brown, Defense = Gourgeist (Horror and Supernatural) White, Special Attack = Gardevoir (Romance) Purple, Special Defense = Goodra (Fantasy) Green, Speed = Hawlucha (Action)

I remember having a really easy time with the Elite 4 in Pokemon X and Y all because I had a Slyveon in my party! While the fairy types are nice I felt very bad for Dragon type pokemon! They shouldn't have that big of a weakness against Fairy types so I felt bad when I steamrolled a dragon trainer.

4:50 Nothing much to say about Malva: solid team, nice movesets, great Mega; approved! 😊 7:45 I think Starmie should have Natural Cure > Illuminate for... oblivious reasons. As for the Mega... I'm genuinely in between: on one hand, Mega Blastoise would feel redundant alongside Clawitzer (and would force Lanturn to go out); on the other one, Mega Gyarados fits way much better for Lysandre to take him away: if this change is really needed, than the only real alternative for him MUST be Mega Tyranitar, no debating! 😤 10:15 Having Brave Bird on a Sturdy Skarmory feels risky, even with Roost as recovery; better Drill Peck, at that point. Also, how could you forget Scizor's best Technician coverage in... Rock Smash?! 😂 13:50 Despite your reasoning, I still think Mega Garchomp shouldn't have been discarded so easily: after all, Drasna comes from Sinnoh, so it wouldn't have been absurd giving him to her as well! As for Tyrantrum, I don't have a problem about it (any other Dragon type left is the ace of another Dragon specialist), but I'd have swapped him with Goodra if Mega Garchomp was picked instead. The rest is fine... except Frisk on Noivern: Infiltrator is just better! 😅 19:10 The inclusion of Furfrou is actually pretty interesting, and it'd be funny if, every time you battle her, it'll be showed with a different haircut just to show her "gimmick" 😂 However, I can't say the same for Malamar: it's probably just me, but that Pokémon has "evil" written all over to include him in her or Olympia's team (at least in Story Mode); instead, I'd suggest Pangoro (or even Zoroark, but I wanted to stay within Gen 6) as his replacement: I guess I just find him cooler 😅 The rest is fine; approved! 😊 Overall, you did a great job, OKreations; can't wait for your next "fix" video.

[@erenercan1306]

The pathetic difficulty problem of gen 6 lies, in my opinion, in that the player recieves multible megas with legendary stats at the beginning of the midgame, then goes on to face mediocre opposition at best (well done fixing that in the gym leader video). Then at the endgame the player faces solid to even good oppostition. The problem is that their pokemon with legendary stats also have 70+ evs in every stat at this point. The player simply outstats everything with a 100 at worst but most of the times a 200-300 gap and kills everything. This problem is always present but by far the most apparent with a access to megas. By giving everyone deserving teams, like in this video, good job, the biggest part is done. I would always suggest giving all pokemon in every elite four 40 evs in all stats and their ace 50. All champion mons get 50 evs in all stats and the ace gets 60. It dissapoints me that the pokemon comp. has given trainers max competitive evs multible times but never thought to use evs in smaller amounts to modify stats however necessary or wanted. In battle a pokemon is its stats, typing, ability and moves. The 1st or 2nd biggest fourth of a pokemon in battle is almost never utilized or experimented with. I personally would love to see a elite four, where every mon gets max evs in health and half of max evs in both defences. Would make it feel a little like the anime, with pokemon surviving hits they have no buisness tanking and getting as many chances as possible to pull as much bullsht as possible on the player.

[@hyrumkohler]

16:26 I disagree on this. Team Flare's Xerosic had a Malamar as his ace, and it fit very well thematically that the cunning scientist behind the ultimate weapon (or at least being heavily involved) would have it

[@rizi7832]

for diantha gardevoir could have hyper voice, just to make use of its signature ability, lovely video by the way

[@crazychristopher1989]

Main issues with the team building composition for Kalos. I can name several of them. First and foremost is Gardevoir's move set. Mega Gardevoir has the ability Pixilate and literally not one of its moves in the vanilla games is a Normal type move. Pixilate makes Normal moves become Fairy while in battle. So Echoed Voice or even Hyper Voice would've benefitted from the ability. Secondly is Siebold's team composition. Starmie has an ability that's actually useless in battle. So that should change to Natural Cure, which is one of its other vanilla abilities. Plus there's the Mega Blastoise debacle. Flint of the Sinnoh Elite Four has an Infernape and it's a starter Pokémon. Plus Mega Gyarados is more suited for Lysandre as it is technically considered a villainous Pokémon due to it being Dark typed. Next is Drasna. While Ampharos is a good idea, I feel that Charizard is more suited for her. It has a Dragon form in Mega Charizard X and gets Dragon moves by TM. Also, I personally feel that keeping Drasna's Druddigon on her team while giving it a Rocky Helmet to compliment its Rough Skin ability is a better move. Plus Noivern should have Infiltrator for an ability rather than Frisk as the latter checks for items on the opposing team and the player doesn't utilize Hold items most of the time. What about Malva? Giving her Houndoom is a good idea but adding Solar Beam to its move pool can benefit the Sunny Day and Solar Power strategy she might possibly have. Plus, giving her Torkoal the White Herb is a good idea. It reversed Curse's effect. For Diantha's team, she should have most of her team replaced with new Pokémon. Hawlucha should be replaced with Furfrou, Tyrantrum should be replaced with Malamar and Aurorus should be replaced with Lapras. I personally feel that other than Steven and maybe Lance due to the latter not having very many options in his own region as far as typing specialty goes, no Pokémon League Champion should have a single Fossil Pokémon in his or her team. Steven's father owns a building in Rustboro City that resurrects fossils. So Steven gets a pass on having Fossil Pokémon as options. You could also replace Gourgeist with Carbink as it represents a gemstone and it can be encountered in Reflection Cave. Other than that, very good video.

[@wub-zero735]

With Pixilate and Refrigerate the normal type moves get 1,3 power more (1,2 after Gen 7), giving Gardevoir Hyper Voice would be a stronger choice than Moonblast, and it would actually make use of its ability! :)

I like the fact that the Kalos Elite Four is unique in that one of their members is also a former Team Flare member, but I also don't like the fact all of the Kalos Elite Four and a majority of the Gym Leaders after Korrina, and to the extent the Rivals after the 5th Gym, don't have a Mega Evolution. You want to flex a new mechanic? Make sure it isn't stuck to specific Pokemon or give the important trainers one of those specific Pokemon. Honestly I do agree with a majority of the changes to these teams, only changes I'd personally make to X/Y Teams overall are (Just gonna say it now, I'd do be wanting a Pokemon Evil Teams list of updated Teams for all the major baddies up to Gen 6): - Give Grant a Barbaracle as an Ace (I know it's a bit strong, but it's a Rock/Water Type, you'd be able to find plenty of Pokemon by the time you'd fight Grant for that NOT to be an issue. On top of that its Gen 6 Lv. Up Moveset is not really an issue, especially since it doesn't get Fury Cutter until Lv. 37.) - Have every Gym Leader have at least 1 extra Pokemon on their Team (Wulfric gets 2 because why not), and a majority of the Gym Leaders after Korrina, as well as the Elite Four have their own Mega Evolutions (Probably not Ramos, but depends on the person. Also, it's kind ridiculous that almost none of the major battles use the mechanic at all.). - Siebold's Ace being Blastoise and Wikstrom's being Aggron. (Siebold's not only because of the anime, but he's a chef, so it would be fitting to have turtle soup on his menu lol. Wikstrom's because it not only turns into a pure Steel Type, but it also looks knightly enough for the man. Scizor's also a nice pick because its an already established Pokemon on his team, but I'd honestly prefer if it wasn't the obvious choice.) - Last but certainly not least, changing Diantha's Team (Whether it be composition or just overall moveset) because whilst she does follow similar patterns to Steven Stone in that she has solely Pokemon of her Region, plus the 2 Fossil Mons, and a Psuedo Legend, her Team just dies to 3 different Types. We called her the worst Champion before Geeta, but to be fair to Geeta, she legitimately forgot to bring her A-Game Team for the Champion Battle. Though I would also have the replacements stick in line with her secondary theming, all of her Pokemon are not only differently colored Pokemon, but they also have a different strongest stat (Hawlucha is Green and its highest is speed, Tyrantrum is Red/Attack. Aurorus is Blue/HP, Gourgeist is Brown/Defense, Goodra is Purple/Special Defense, and Gardevoir is White/Special Attack). I do agree she needs to be more on the Lysandre contrast side, but also sticking in line with her secondary theming. To reiterate: I do enjoy the changes you thought would make the Teams overall better, and I can respect them. I just have my own opinions about what could be a better Team for Diantha. (Much like how I personally think that Clair should've probably had a Feraligatr on her Team and replaced one of her Dragonair for a Seadra, making her seem more like a Water specialist instead of Dragon to throw off the player, not by much, but slightly.)

[@Savannah_Simpson]

I really disagree and think Siebold should have Mega Blastoise. Yeah, Sycamore uses one but he doesn’t Mega evolve it and I just think Lysander is just too tied to Mega Gyarados.

[@OKreations]

Fair enough!

[@thoughtsofaleo2916]

I really like your approach here! Like everyone has said, it's frustrating that the Kalos Elite Four didn't have Mega Evolution - like why did it get introduced if only the player and villain would use it? I know they wanted to make XY easier for new players but I feel like that was such a missed opportunity. Would love to see your take on the rivals or villain teams!

Hey thanks for the feedback! I appreciate the support! Sounds good!

Make Guardevoir a shiny, turning the Wedding Dress into a Funeral Dress. As if to say, this is your Funeral, Challenger!!

Im quite surprised no trainers have shiny pokemon. Doesnt really matter, but someone like the champion having one would just be funny. Maybe your rival, a random gym leader, or yknow, literally anyome at all

[@Nova-_-]

Would love to one day see an Elite Four centred around things other than a single type. Like a Trick Room team, or a team centred around a certain Terrain Also i wanna see you go all out on an Elite Four one day. Balance it for a custom ROM hack thats designed to be cruel. Hack the fight so Trick Room, Sun or even Toxic Spikes is permanently up from Turn 0 (or until the player overwrites it

[@sblounchkzekd]

If Propobass had Stealth Rocks, you'd have Wikstrom be really punishing on switch-ins. It's guaranteed to get it off thanks to sturdy, and if Klefki got Spikes in, a Spinner becomes really valuable. Mix in Sandstorm and Wikstrom becomes a Knight standing against the storm

[@OKreations]

Troooo, especially with Whirlwind

[@danielcurren2119]

I recommend adaptability dragalge. It’s not one to sleep on with decent special bulk

[@rjd-kh8et]

Siebold's Starmie should have Natural Cure or its Hidden Ability Analytic, since Illuminate is completely useless in battle in this Gen. And trainers are actually programmed to switch out if a Pokémon with Natural Cure is asleep.

[@volcanbolt12]

Analytic would be pointless on Starmie, since the boost applies only if it attacks last (and it has 115 in Speed, so...); Natural Cure is the only real option, imho

[@seamus5979]

well it would matter if people aren’t goobers playing on switch mode since the damage boost also applies when a pokemon is switched in

[@volcanbolt12]

@@seamus5979 Ok, but it'd still be situational: if I'm aware of what move Starmie is going to use, I could counter it with a switch on an "immune" pokémon and waste its Analytic; meanwhile, Natural Cure will be "alive" the moment Starmie will get statused; besides, you'll play Life Orb Starmie most of the time, so that extra boost isn't that relevant compared to a garanteed status heal

[@ligneotetsvdo1341]

Personally i would keep the the number of four pokemon for the elite four. For Malva, I would replace Flambusard (forgot it's english name) by M.Houndoom and, make Torkoal the sun installer (with your idea of giving one item to the you could have give a heat rock to Torkoal), it may prevents from wasting attacks slot of other pokemons for the sun control. Then, as i liked the idea of playing with climate, i found it could be quite fun to go for some rain team for Siebold (i think it is his EN name), with this you could make Gyarados faster with the other ability and may you could put tentacruel and Pelipper over Golgo and Clawitzer to put some t spikes and rain. And for Drasna, may Tyrantrum could replace Noivern and get to use the SR and get the mega Ampharos over Altaria (dunno if it is its en name too).

[@nickdentoom1173]

I totally see why you ddin't give Siebold Mega Blastoise, since that would have felt unfair towards Malva not getting a Charizard Y and Drasna not getting X. My problem with T-Wave over Torment for Klefki on Wikstroms team, is that his team is cakewalk for Ground types. If you are going to do an Evil team fix, i would prefer Diggersby over Malamar for Diantha, since Malamar is Xerosic's ace. Xerosic has 2 Pokemon anyways (With Lysandre having only four). There a couple of Pokemon that aren't used by any major trainer in XY.

[@MonosDBZ.]

Love these videos man, would you be down to make one about fixing the worst starters like the chicorita line.

Thanks dood!

[@FroyoMNS]

I don’t think that Aegislash should have Shadow Sneak as its Ghost STAB, simply because it will put it in its defensively weak Attack form before the player’s Pokémon gets the chance to attack.

[@FroyoMNS]

Also, Tyrantrum should have Rock Head if it’s running Head Smash imo (since Strong Jaw doesn’t boost either of its STAB moves and Head Smash recoil is brutal).

[@BirdCraftSSB]

While I like most of the changes, I don't like that you did not make the Megas the new aces especially since a lot of them would be a bigger challenge the original aces My ideas for new Elite Four teams: Siebold: Mega Blastoise Clawitzer Barbaracle Gyarados Lanturn Malva: Mega Houndoom Talonflame Pyroar Chandelure Torkoal Wilkstrom: Mega Scizor Aegislash Bisharp Klefki Skarmory Drasna: Mega Ampharos Dragalge Noivern Garchomp Tyrantrum Diantha: Mega Gardevoir Goodra Trevenant Pangoro Aurorus Furfrou

Nice job!

[@OKreations]

Thanks!

[@lucaslaine757]

For Lysandre, I think mega aggron or mega tyranitar depending the version you play could be interesting, as those megas are exclusive to X or Y

[@TheGodIvy]

Well this is the first "changing x thing" about pokemon that i can actually watch, as most of them just make said characters as hard as possible for no real reason. I have one critique (which is 100% my personal bias, i know) but id stick with 4 mons for each elite 4 member. I think a 5th can be added for rematches, but having 4 mons each is what gamefreak intended, and i personally wouldnt change that

Silly fun fact, on my first Kalos playthough um.... turns out my entire team was vulnerable to Mega Gardevoir, so Diantha nearly swept my entire team, and I only won through spamming dig on Garchomp. Do not ask how that worked because to this day I still don't know

[@Azanathal]

For Drasana, and the Elite 4 in general, I think their Mega should be their Ace, especially since its this generation's gimmick. That being said, I also think this should change Noivern's Boomburst -> Super Fang. Boomburst works better on a final pokemon, where Super Fang is good on a non-final pokemon.
