Goodbye, Lumiose Trainer Zac.

[@cooljoe1920]

The idea of you changing your name right before Pokémon announces a game entirely focused on Lumiose City is hilarious

[@SunitaYadav-zr3cx]

He regretting it already 😂

[@ICallShotgun13]

He's gotta temporarily change it back for Legends ZA

[@VincentDeLuca2003]

Probably just a name change, but I find it funny how Matpat has instilled fear into all of our hearts that all our favorite KZbinrs are going to quit.

[@terancetan5503]

Hey, if it can happen to the big guys, it can happen to anyone.

[@goracyi]

Who? I'm kidding. These kinds of thumbnail are more like Unus Annus and givem e fear that the entire channel will dissapear

[@sylas6170]

Yea no we have big fear now

[@IsleofPigsStudios]

No worries for this channel though

[@hyprov1919]

Good call 👍👍

At least we still have "and have yourself a damn good one"?

[@ThePokeRaf]

For the time we met in the community and became the bros that we are today, I am so grateful to have see your come up throughout the years. And I look forward to the new adventures ahead with you, my brother. Forever my Lumiose trainer ❤️💙

This aged like absolute milk.

[@HerwakNic]

Thank you so much Zac, you were one of my favourite KZbinrs, and inspired me to do so much, both with my channel and IRL. We'll all miss you buddy... AND HELLOOOOOO TO ZACTOSHI!

[@Zptarry]

He was one of my favorite KZbinrs as well. We will miss him, indeed. 👍

[@underplanet4911]

(Time of sending this: 10:20 AM ) Glad to know Zac is still gonna be around......new an awesome rebrand of the Channel!! I can't to see the future content Zac is cooking up. I'm hyped for it 🔥🔥🔥

[@Zptarry]

I’m hyped as well! 😄👍

[@PhilDoesGames]

Bros definetly just changing his channel name beg don’t like this age badly 😂

[@I_Like_History]

That’s a good idea

[@nathanplays7082]

Its weird that his pfp is slowly fading away like the colour’s

[@JayLouis0]

Lmao ur right

[@aidenpoindexter2568]

Everyones doing this

[@prashantchettri8764]

You were right

[@pokedude8076]

Thank you for everything Lumiose Trainer Zac. Your videos have brightened up my day so many times, even through the thick and thin of life. Bon voyage, trainer. I hope to see you again someday

[@pokedude8076]

PSYCH!- He's still here!

[@jacobiliebs3236]

THIS DID NOT AGE WELL

[@Bombasaur101]

Actually the WORST possible timing for the name change

[@UnwantedGhost1-anz25]

Lmao 🤣

[@pelucheonfirexiv1671]

Why???

[@koxame]

@@pelucheonfirexiv1671because the new pokemon game is a kalos game based on lumiose city

[@sharondareese507]

@@pelucheonfirexiv1671 Pokemon Legends Z-A seems to be a game that's most going to center around Lumious City, and him changing his name right before the game was announced

[@ganoninthepit]

Hey, congratulations on the shift! It's really incredible how far your channel's come. Props on moving on in life and reorganizing. I look forward to the steady rotation of content that's on its way; every one of them! Wishing you luck, man.

[@AhmedHussain-ju6xd]

The very defination of "they had us in the first half NGL"

[@InfamousTrainer]

Excited about the transition, excited about the content and many things to come for you bro. I know your COOKING this year! 2024 is the year of Zactoshi! 🔥

[@Zptarry]

Indeed, it is the year of Zac! 😇

[@ich-bin-niemand5287]

Didn't happend until he brings out his Paldea Anime❤

[@Seivilon]

I have a good news for you : No He's not leaving he's just changing his channel name

[@redeclipse2602]

If I remember correctly, his makeup team for Ash's Galar journey ended up being the Pokemon for the What If series. Now that hes gonna do Paldea, Ash's team will be: Pikachu, Skeledirge, Lowkix, Palafin, Clodsire, and Koraidon (which would be his 3rd unofficial official legendary)!

[@linhardtvonhevring7262]

I hope his team has some of the underrated Pokémon. Pikachu is a no-brainer Then his starter(s) could be a Quaxly that doesn’t evolved and a Skeledirge who prefers to sing over battling His Primeape, finally returned and evolved into Annihilape after mastering Rage Fist Eventually, he would trade Skeledirge to someone else for a powerful Finizen who needs some help transforming into her Hero form upon evolving He could have a Pawmot who trains with Pikachu to get stronger If I don’t count what I say below, his last team member could be Armarouge And this’ll be a wild shot, maybe he could get one of the Mount Legends: Koraidon or Miraidon. This is because of Ash’s traveling companions: One is Nemona, obviously. She would get along with Ash in every universe he exists in. She wouldn’t have a starter at first and eventually make friends with a Sprigatito, catching it when it evolves into Floragato. She has her Pawmot, like before, as well as her Orthworm and Dudunsparce like before. Her last two Pokémon I think will be caught while she’s traveling with Ash: a Drakloak that later evolves into a Dragapult, and a Ceruledge to rival Ash’s Armarouge. Next is Carmine, who I chose to have DLC representation. She would have her Sinistcha, as always, as well as her Mightyena because I’m Team Sky biased. The rest of her Pokémon she would catch over the course of her journey with Ash, pure-typed Pokémon that coincidentally match Ogerpon’s secondary types: a Nacli, a Charcadet that doesn’t evolve but can put in some serious work, and her own Quaxly. I don’t think she’d get up to six. Final traveling companion: Lacey. This way we have all three parts of the ScVi map represented. Lacey obviously prefers cutesy Pokémon, but I think outside of the BB League, Lacey would love contests. She would be who Ash eventually trades his Skeledirge to, in exchange for a Finizen with a broken tailfin. Think the movie “Dolphin Tale”. Lacey would have her Granbull, like before, as well as her Excadrill and Minior like before. The rest of her Pokémon would involve different types of art. We already have Skeledirge for singing, so how about…Smeargle for painting, Braixen for magic, and Flamigo for synchronized battling, since battling can be seen as an art. Lacey would definitely not get up to six Pokémon lol

[@yigitafsar1611]

I’m so exited for the future! I always felt the weekly videos felt like a handicap, the game and manga videos sound awesome. Also, Scarlet & Violet let’s goooo

[@skyblaster969]

If he's leaving KZbin then where am I going to watch the Pokemon horizons episode reviews. Seriously it's like hearing Matpat announcing his retirement on KZbin

[@andrewpresland3491]

Yep indeed

[@skyblaster969]

Oh good he's not leaving

[@hy2rochlor1c]

if you still want theres another horizons reviewer called “pokeferlax”

[@Johanimate]

How did you post a comment 12 hrs before the video?

[@adhvaithsivakarnan]

Did you even watch the video? He literally just said he ain't leaving yt

[@ReachfortheStars-n4x]

Guys no worry it must be just another “goodbye pikachu”or “goodbye sprigatito”situation *EDIT: Yeah, it dated well*

[@Ligmapigga]

hopefully

[@mrpumpkinshrimps]

Bro had his own Pokémon Presents a week early 👌

[@Jadinite-2006]

Dude, You got me so emotional at first. 😭

[@thebloodedge284]

Same

[@thedraftingax5963]

Me too. I thought he was leaving and retiring. That would make me sad to lose another one of my childhood KZbinrs.

[@yovi7303]

The moment i saw the logo go Grayscale this morning, I knew something was up.

[@blackoutamvs6550]

Same

[@2Horrible]

As soon as you changed it, Pokemon Z drops. I still like the new change, it fits you more.

[@AhmedHussain-ju6xd]

The pokemon adventures manga is one of my favorite aspects of the franchise. glad it finally gets the light of day.

[@smasherthecannonball6240]

Lets see if he makes it past Red, Blue and Green....

[@guyorgirl2895]

Time to pull out the uno reverse card.

[@Queen_of_chaos]

You deserve happiness man! We will continue to support you! (At least I WILL!) You dude are one heck of a KZbinr. Your inspirational, funny, kind, and very informative! :D I respect your decision!

[@Zactoshi]

Thanks, that means a lot 🙂

[@CHIEWJUNYIMoe]

Dude your videos got me into Pokemon KZbin like I used to just play Pokemon GO on my mom's phone and was just scrolling KZbin I saw your channel decided to check it out and I thought:"Huh,Pokemon KZbinrs really are cool" . then I just decided to go check out new poketubers. Thanks so much for getting me into the community man.

[@silvesta5027]

Bro the beginningggg 😭 Man made it out like he’s about to retire. But this was actually a great update video. Nuzlockes, manga reviews, anime reviews will be really nice additions to the channel

[@HaruRanchi]

Thank goodness you aren't quitting, I've seen lots of KZbinrs come and go. I'm glad you're staying hope to see more of your interesting KZbin videos!

[@clownygamingcircus]

Zactoshi is so freaking fitting! Just feels right. Also big hype on Manga Reviews shout outs to our brave soldier who dedicated a year to making it happen! Big fan of the idea of a Pokemon Scarlet and Violet What If Series really excited to see what you are able to make happen Zac! Have a damn good one you absolute legend!

[@charlesbomerschein9707]

You had me in the 1st min ngl. I saw this come up on my notifications a couple hrs ago and was reminiscing about all the coverage and in depth descriptions you gave which made me super hype for both the anime and the games without spoiling a whole bunch. You mainly kept to key details with your reviews on the episodes and I respect you for that also for keeping them short and sweet. You're awesome man! Keep up the amazing work. Lumiose Trainer Zach will be missed BUT Zachtoshi rolls off the tongue like butter on toast.

[@siphon53]

Goodbye Luminous Trainer Zac, Hello Zactoshi!

[@Geezer_Weezer]

Nice troll man at the beginning. The name change is cool and I can't wait for the rest of the year. This is all nice content that is well rounded and shows your diversity in pokemon content.

[@SilverFox5697]

I was surprised he changed his name, I was thinking the same thing but OMG, I was very glad to see him continue, Zactoshi is one of my favorite KZbinrs and I'm great for him to continue. Forever my favorite channel Lumiose trainer zac.

[@thedraftingax5963]

Same here!

[@UnwantedGhost1-anz25]

I'm loving these new changes. So glad to see you evolving in order to adapt. Best of luck, Zactoshi and everyone. 🍀

[@thedraftingax5963]

You almost had me the first half, but glad you're not leaving! I can't wait for what happens next and for the future of the channel!

[@KoolBeanz101]

Youre one the poketubers that really got me into pokemon. Youre a pretty nostalgic channel to me and I really enjoy your centent. Im glad that youre staying and im looking foward to the new stuff you'll be ditching out. I hope you have fun being a poketuber for the years to come and I wish you good luck man. See ya in youre next video, Zactoshi (also ngl that ash greninja hoodie goes crazy, once I start makin money im definally gonna be getting that!)

[@Eric-gp3hi]

This the end of the era. Welcome Zatoshi. I’m glad that you’re not leaving KZbin your one of the best Pokémon KZbinrs. I’m looking forward to seeing your reviews of the Pokémon Adventures Manga!

[@Superplushproductions-us2dn]

I’m so glad you’re not quiting KZbin because I love your videos and keep up the good work

[@KingNidoYT]

Congrats on the name change, and I look forward to seeing this next chapter of your journey. And I cannot wait for the adventure manga reviews! Having read them multiple times, I am excited for your take on them.

[@UtpalaDas-nc5yb]

Thanks for the quality content you delivered! Really looking forword for some great quality content from zactoshi! Once again thanks lumose trainer zac!

[@Zanolith]

Excited to see what you got cooking up bro. Also releasing scarlet and violet before I release journeys is insane lmao

[@Blox_fruit123-x5p]

WOW I didn't expect to see you here

[@Raph___A]

BRO, I'm so glad you're not going anywhere! You're my favorite PokéTuber, and having you leave now would just make me very sad! Really excited for the new content! Also, if there is a place where we could give feedback and ideas for videos/streams, that would be so cool. Looking forward to the future of Zactoshi.

[@4pageletterr]

IM SO CONFUSED

[@MagicalCycero]

Super hyped for the new content! Especially the SV anime. From the looks of the poster, it looks like Zac is going in the direction of the manga by making Naranja and Uva two separate academies. I'm honestly shocked to see Dot here, but that's not to say I'm complaining. It looks to me like as far as companions go, this is going to be more similar to SM, where Ash doesn't really have travelling companions, but he has classmates. As a fan of SM, I'm perfectly fine with that, and I think it fits the tone of Paldea! Also, that is a shiny Eevee. What is up with that shiny Eevee? Zac, we must know this! Edit: I thought the Horizons characters would get similar treatment to the Journeys characters, but looking at this poster, they seem awfully significant if they're taking up a whole third of the screen! Hopefully, we get to see them a lot during the series. Maybe the Rising Volt Tacklers will be the teachers at Uva. (Diana as the directress, Friede as the biology teacher, etc.) Zac (and whoever is making these thumbnails) are legends for being able to spawn this much hype from one poster in a video that's already filled with hype!

[@ChampionBlaze]

The boy is evolving!!! let's go! super excited for what's to come! these all sound amazing and nicely balanced! keep cooking bro! also, i kid you not, when you said "take a look at this video" a flipping AD played for Burger King! LMFAO!

I’m excited for not only for the scarlet and Violet anime rewrite! But also gaming videos as well! A lot of cool stuff was announced and I liked the beginning of the video as well! I’m looking forward to what the future will unfold on this channel, and yeah I definitely can understand why your changing your channel nickname but it’s still a cooler nickname as well. 😁👍

[@JacobElyachar]

I want to say "Thank You" for all the work that you did as Lumiose Trainer Zac! I know that you will be fantastic as Zactoshi!!!

[@Zptarry]

Truly well said. 😁

[@AuraKnight-kn1ux]

Thank goodness 😅 I was worried about cause I enjoyed your Pokémon Sword and Shield anime I think changing your KZbin channel name actually makes sense cause it’s like your evolving into a character yeah I’m full of Puns and a Great Sense of Humor 😊. Kind Regards AuraKnight

[@VuyoNgcana]

See you later Lumiose Trainer Zac, rest in blissful memories.❤

[@ResurgentRaven]

You have no idea how many times I've rewatched your League reviews. I think the concept of Horizons reviews over a month period is a really good idea. I usually enjoy watching individual reviews in bulk. Cool to see your new updates, and I look forward to seeing where this new step takes you.

[@popgirlyprima]

You scared me for a bit! Congrats on the rebrand and cheers!

[@libraryscholaralexis6581]

Can't wait to see the Pokemon Adventures manga reviews. I've read the manga before and think that it is really cool. Also that Scarlet and Violet anime announcement! Can't wait to see Ash interacting with Penny, Arven, and Nemona and how some of the more serious things that the game went into such as Arven and Penny's stories. Also the fun of Ash and Nemona interacting with each other just sounds so fun to me. So much to look forward too and I can't wait to see it.

[@TheMediaNut]

A moment of silence for our fallen comrade

[@BooksR4Lovers]

Dude, you just made me cheer. Can't wait to see you do the Pokemon adventures manga!

I am so happy Zactoshi is going on a new KZbin adventure. Everything that he is plaing to cover sounds great. I cant wait to see those videos.

[@GatorOne-in7hk]

I am SO hyped to see you review Pokémon Adventures! The scant few people who did set out to review the series never got farther than the Yellow Chapter before moving on to other things, so here’s hoping you break the cycle because I NEED to see a great review of the amazing Gold/Silver/Crystal chapter!

YOOO ZACTOSHI REVIEWING THE MANGA W, it's so underrated

[@carleeelders875]

I did not expect a Pokemon Scarlet and Violet rewrite this soon. LET'S GOOOOO!!!!! Considering how amazing the Sword and Shield one was, I wish it would be canon, I can't wait to see what you came up with for this😆.

[@dejaypage1575]

Actually new realization; Ash’s companions are gonna possibly be the “Friend Trio” while Liko and Roy are rivals. So Ash is gonna be doing the Gym Challenge with Nemona, while they are helping Arven with the Titans and helping Penny’s “backer” with Team Star

[@alyslim5234]

i’m so glad you’re still gonna be around 😭 i was so afraid that you were gonna leave! i loved your series and your reviews in general 🙏🏻 lots of love to you!!

This is excellent! I look forward to see where this channel going forward.

[@elsarules2870]

I greatly look forward to the Scarlet and Violet anime as well as the manga review! I feel like the manga doesn't get the love it really deserves, and it's a nice balance between the games and anime! The only time I ever really see content is people talking about what got censored in it. I greatly look forward to it! Your Sword and Shield anime felt so much like you were summarizing a series they made, and I absolutely loved it! I can't wait for the new content!

[@amanogirl1]

I thought you were leaving my heart was breaking, but now that I know it’s only a name change I’m happy

[@Positivebutter]

This makes me so excited for your content!!! Cant wait for all these new videos!!!

[@dawnsbuneary]

It's just like when MandJTV dropped the "pokevids" in his name, or when Pokemen7 abbreviated his name to PM7.
