I love how she keeps saying "skill issue, Ash!" without saying it.

[@LuapXD]

Basically yeah 😂

[@acetrainerleo483]

Love it dude, i never found iris annoyed minus a few rewatches espeically the second battle with trip how was ash suppose to know about curse body. he never heard of it especially cause it was new at the time

[@jediclonekag13]

Personally, Iris was done better in Journeys than in Black & White.

[@LuapXD]

I agree 👌🏼

[@zack6283]

@@LuapXD that will awesome to have new episodes of Pokemon chronicles

[@jediclonekag13]

@@LuapXD Thanks for agreeing with me!😊

[@thefirespecialist9007]

I really want a Pokémon Special Episode (1 hour long) or Mini Arc (Chronicles Style - 4, 30 minute Episodes) about Iris after the BW Series. Why she decided on Unova Champion as a goal, and that Path. Did she participate in Gym Battles, the League, then Unova Champion's league? Or was there a different path she took, that could have been based on how she was (or if she became) the Opalucid Gym Leader? Not to mention, since higher ranked matches are Full 6 on 6 Battles, what other Pokémon did she capture?

[@LuapXD]

Definitely would love that

[@DUDEBRUHMICE]

I’m sure Chili and Crest would love to explain to everyone why their badge is called the “trio badge” when there’s only 2 of them

[@LuapXD]

Lol never thought about that

[@TheMonkeyKing4]

Considering BW was the first series I watched, Iris is one of my favourite Ash companions

[@LuapXD]

Completely valid

[@davidvilla1247]

Same with me that’s why I love it a lot but I feel bad since most people hate it. And most of those haters are XY fans

[@jeremymartinnfl2608]

Have you noticed that upon meeting Ash for the first time she's blushing just like with Misty & Serena, Iris also seems to have a secret little crush on Ash. Negaishipping.

[@daylimp2961]

I said many years ago And i saying it now , Iris is one of thing why “Worst wishes” are so hated But writes fixed her in Journeys and i like how Gou meet her the same like Ash did.

[@LuapXD]

Yeah Journeys did her character VERY well

[@superiorsnivy3770]

Great thumbnail iris is choking haxorus 😂.

[@LuapXD]

Shes showing Haxorus whos boss 😂

[@TheQuinnofElegance]

Axew should've evolved in the end of black and white. Her progress just felt non existent when the series ends, but Journeys does something right and gives her a happy ending

[@LuapXD]

It would have been nice to see it evolve for sure

[@zash1233]

You are killing it with these thumbnails

[@ashtonvlogsph]

These videos just keep getting better over time

[@LuapXD]

Thank you so much Ashton

[@ChampionBlaze]

Another amazing installment to this series bro! Iris definitely has some of the best development battle wise among Ash's companions.

[@LuapXD]

Thank you Blaze, always appreciate you stopping by :)

[@LuapXD]

Of course 👌🏼

@@LuapXDgood video

[@Rocketlux]

This is definitely a good video on my favorite pokegirl

[@LuapXD]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@CaptainRillaboomArmenia]

Every anime has its best girl, and Iris is that for Pokémon. She has the good things Misty has, and they also removed the things that annoyed me with the OG Pokegirl, while adding some things Pokegirls like May, Dawn, or Serena had.

[@meta527II]

I'm honestly glad that Iris won the club battle tournament, because she's honestly one of my favorite traveling companions.

[@LuapXD]

Yeah its fun to see the companions win too

[@mimiquoi7380]

We can reproach a lot of things about Journey but they really did Iris right ! She was my favorite Champion in the games and I was a little how the character was done in the Black and White anime but I love her evolution in Journey ! 😊

[@LuapXD]

Totally agreed

[@mazharsiddiqi7288]

Great video Iris and the BW anime as a whole is really where Pokémon really missed out having the series meet it's full potential or even some of it I think BW would have been a cool way to introduce new protags Liko, Roy and maybe Dot Liko definitely gives Oshawott trainer vibes Roy could have Tepig And I guess Dot with Snivy Iris could be like Nemona as the strong vet trainer they meet but is still challenging the Gyms to challenge the league and Alder Liko and N would be fun counterparts too since N understands Pokémon and Liko wants to learn about understanding them

[@LuapXD]

Interesting idea is to give the Horizons protags new starters depending on what series they were introduced in

[@Aeenjyl]

Another Great Video, Luap! 😄👍 Iris truly was an entertaining addition to the anime... and 8 year old me grew up with the Pokemon Black and White Anime -after watching the 90s episodes for awhile completely unaware that they're still making episodes of Pokemon- so I always have a soft spot for BW episodes. I don't know why 8 year old me laughed at every Iris insult in the anime, but it was around the end of BW that I lost a lot of respect for her as a character *until Journeys* happened. Honestly, the only thing I really hated was her Axew who caused so much trouble which ruined a lot of my favorite BW Episodes. "There's a New Gym Leader in Town" was one of the worst cases where Ash's Pikachu is blamed for the trouble Axew had caused. When her dumb, stupid, annoying Axew finally evolved into a powerful Haxorus... I was so relieved.

[@trexadvent4726]

How come we never saw how Iris became the Champion of the Unova Region in the anime like did she beat Alder along with why we didn't see her Axew fully evolve into Haxorus?

[@jamesrobson8308]

Comedic queen. Her interactions were great with Georgia. She was cool in bw. I get people's complaints tho

[@LuapXD]

Yeah Iris and Georgia interactions were top tier

[@randomguy6230]

Its funny that iris and georgia were introduced before xy, cz during xy fairy types were introduced and we all know its a counter to dragon types. Never saw iris reaction of seeing fairy types and never saw georgia owning 1

[@davidvilla1247]

Iris Excadrill will take care of that

[@trexadvent4726]

What would have happened if Iris had Druddigon and Hydreigon to complete her collection of Dragon type Pokemon from the Unova Region? If Iris had a Mega evolved Pokemon, Would Salamence suit her?

[@randomguy6230]

Axew that got lost in the unova league. Unova league ptsd💀💀💀

[@Pokewho-6475]

I didn’t really like her in black and white but she’s grown on me in Pokémon journeys

[@LuapXD]

Me too :)

[@colterpollock6407]

Dude Luap, Ever since Ash met Iris In the Pokémon, black-and-white anime saga. Iris has become a pain in the neck for Ash to deal with Through the black-and-white saga, I don’t care what people say. It was a mistake for Ash to catch nine Pokémon. But, they are Wrong, Their mistake in the black-and-white anime saga was throwing away all of Ash’s, development and experiences which he have developed through the Kanto saga, Orange Islands Saga, Johto Saga, Hoenn saga, Kantos Battle Frontier, And Sinnoh saga! Their mistake was making Ash and his Pikachu Lose to a weak level five grass starter Pokémon Snivy phoned by a snobby and prejudice Pokémon trainer named Trip Who looks like a terrible Paul clone from the diamond and pearl saga, Ash threw a Poké ball at a Deerling instead of using his Pikachu to battle the wild Deerling, Brock not there to help Ash and Iris to get Pikachu and Axew you back from Team Rocket, Ash’s Pikachu lose to Cress’s Panpour’s combo attack of double team and pound. You know something pal this would’ve never had happened if the lazy animators and writers should’ve used Pikachu combo of Thunderbolt counter shield trick he invented back in Sinnoh Saga. Cress And His Panpour Won’t see it coming. Ash lost to Lenora and her two normal type Pokémon. Hmm, I think Lenora cheated by breaking her own rules in her gym battle by substituting Pokémon, instead of letting the challengers to substitute Pokémon, and the gym leaders chose not to, and Ash’s gym battle against Elesa! I still don’t get how did Iris became a champion in Unova? We all didn’t see her catch any Pokémon in Unova, Battle, random Pokémon, trainers, battle gym leaders, Earn badges, Enter a Pokémon league, Battling league, opponents, Pokémon, and become champion! Like Ash did except Ash lost to trainer who has five Pokémon! Have you ever noticed the Sun, Moon Saga, journeys Saga, And horizons Saga, animation, remix, and character designs are all terrible? Do you like to know why the new Pokémon Sun, Moon, Journeys, And horizons Animation, remakes, and character designs are the worst?? Because it’s too new That’s why it’s the worst!!

[@trexadvent4726]

What would have happened if we saw someone like Hilda as Ash's female traveling companion of the Unova Region since why would the writers give that title to the Champion?

[@legomagic007_YT]

Who wins? Misty (with mega) or Iris

[@LuapXD]

Technically, Misty has the advantage BUT anime wise I think Iris is a better battler, and would win.

[@salonimalhotra8618]

Now we need one for misty for full circle lol

[@LuapXD]

Its coming eventually

[@randomguy6230]

Yeah iris was handled a lot better during jn. Just like i said i didnt like her catchphrase and something else that really bugged me was that it wasnt handled very well about iris dragon types. For example the gible she captured never appeared during jn.

[@rammer9824]

Iris is the biggest little kid of all time 🤡🤷🏼

[@LuapXD]

Lol true

[@danishfirdaushelmi5309]

Iris Is One Most Hate Character In Anime Which Catchphrase Is Annoying But In Journeys She Got Respect And Got Development When Battle Against Cynthia But Unfortunalety Same Like Other Ash Companions Should Return In MPM As Last Appearance In Anime And Official Last Battle For Ash I Hope She Return In Anime Maybe Horizons Or Next Gen Anime.

[@LuapXD]

Yeah she did better in Journeys for me too

[@Caet.]

🔥

[@darkdragon7210]

A lot of people call Iris Misty 2.0 or a Lesser Misty, thing is she isn't! Iris is Better than Misty, Way BETTER than Misty!!

[@LuapXD]

I disagree, but I dont see her being Misty 2.0 either

[@pedrogabrielduarte4544]

So does iris really owns a goodra or not?

[@LuapXD]

Its never fully confirmed; but it’s definitely implied so I headcannon yes

HI

Hello

[@ajmcomixonline8824]

Misty & Iris are the best poke girls and Serena is the Absolute worst

[@davidvilla1247]

Serena is only loved because of her backstory with ash, and if it wasn’t for that, she literally would’ve been a Dawn Wannbe but a lot worse

[@ajmcomixonline8824]

@@davidvilla1247 her backstory is barely a story ash was nice to her once and she uses that as reason to leave home and fallow him around like a love sick puppy it's so stupid
