Bug Type Tierlist!!! Hope you enjoy, girlypops! I think maybe next week I might cover a different aspect of the Pokemon universe, or maybe we will just do another type. That's all to say, I'm really excited to delve into other things. Maybe I will wait until the girlypoplocke is done. I'm a little busy with both series at the moment, so it might not be smart to try to take on a brand new idea just yet. Thank you all so much for engaging with this. I really appreciate you spending your time on my side of the internet.

Here is my argument for why Vespiquen should in fact be in MOTHER tier: she's running the hive. She's responsible, she's reliable, she's employed, she's a leader and a role model and she's serving a lewk the whole time. She is that bitch

15:37 objection! There based on 50's greaser and waitresses there is a deeper concept he's that bad boy and she's the girl next door that drama! The theater! Dare I say it's camp!

[@tommykelly7272]

Counterpoint: Yes they’re giving camp, theater, and concept, but they’re both giving it enough to really Make It. They get points for trying, but without the emphasis on their Tail Lights, they just look like dressed up bugs

[@williamswonderland3636]

@@tommykelly7272 ok but bugs playing dress up is pretty camp and there fire flys specifically because fireflies are assorted with love more then any other big (I think) and there is enfaces on it in his move pool (because she doesn't learn tail glow or what ever it's called because of real fire fly biology)

[@MosesSuppose]

These videos are so groundbreaking in the field of girlypop analysis- its so interesting seeing the different types and the way they embody the different facets and aesthetics of girlypop! I can’t wait for the ice type tbh the spp (slay per Pokémon) seems like it will be unmatched!

[@MayMay-ub9nm]

Even though I understand and respect your reasoning for Beautifly not being mother …I assert my authority as “kid that had a Pokemon birthday party and she was one of my cakes” saying that she literally birthed me and that is MOTHER

[@benjaminsurrette3034]

anyone with a bug type on their team is avant garde

[@matthewberger4741]

The journey of pink wormadam going from girlypop to okay and back to its (rightful) place in girlypop…we were scared! A lot of people were scared

[@espeonforever8]

Also the fact that she’s literally a Madam!!

[@mankrikswifey]

I think the “Modern Pattern” of Vivillon is a reference to Modernism as an art movement, especially the work of Piet Mondrian. His iconic use of primary colours and black is represented here! The reference alone should earn it a place in Girlypop.

[@SirGunky]

Does anyone remember the trainer that Ash battled at the beginning of the 3rd Pokemon movie? Her team was ABSOLUTELY girlypop

there was also this cute story about pinsir. in japan, at the pokemon store, one mum let her daughter choose any pokemon plush she wants. and she chose pinsir. her mom was so suprised she asked her daughter several times « are you sure you really want that one?!?!? » and her daughter just hugged the plush even more.

right on time for this lecture at girlypop university!

[@luizflavioassismoura6136]

Oh my god, girl, your narrative in these tier lists just keeps popping OFF. I'm living for your storytelling and drama, and this is such a celebration of girlypop on its own! I'm so here for it, and gives me a lot to dig into in aesthetics theory.

[@briansalamander]

if i may make an argument for girlpop status of burmy and wormadam: she's giving costume change!! she uses whatever she is given to make a look!! it's performative, transformative, unique, plus wormadam's little tassels are fun they add to the silhouette and kinda remind me of pigtails on the sand cloak one

[@Sesquipedalian044]

Ariados being Oakley's main (of famed mothers Annie and Oakley) is why I always associate it with girlypop

[@WiccanRiley]

Butterfree is the original girlypop💅 and now Chanel is following in her footsteps

[@PickledBabyBeets]

[@victorrq6826]

As someone who's profile picture is Surskit with a wig on discord, I thank you for the mother placement!!

Mega Pinsir’s dex entry is so cute though! “After Mega Evolution, it becomes able to fly. Perhaps because it's so happy, it rarely touches the ground.” I love that for her!! 😊😊😊

As a bug type girlypop trainer this is the representation I’ve been waiting for. Thank you.

What’s your team? Mine is Rimombee, Frosmoth, Beautifly, Orbeetle, Surskit (w/ Eviolite) and Comfey (Bug Tera Type).

[@TobiasAdin]

Shuckle definitely deserves to be Mother. She's an icon, a legend, and she is the moment!

[@RockslideTreeClan]

scolipede is def the HORSE BUG and i love it for that

[@goddangit5290]

Sad that Scolipede got put in looks around, but I get where you’re coming from and can agree with your placement! To me Scolipede is girlypop because she’s constantly giving everyone the side eye, and her color scheme feels goth to me? The fuchsia and black makes for a more colorful goth for sure. Scolipede would probably do really well on a high school mean girl concept team because she’s got that Agility Baton Pass combo that really lets her act as a tough hench-girl working with a cliquey group of mean girlypop Pokémon. As always you slayed with this tier list and I’m excited to watch your channel evolve and grow!

[@OneJumpFromEden]

ok but Miss Phaun's bug hat and sleeves are eating and smacking

[@downbeatdialga1341]

When you discover the theory about Metapod & Venonat’s evolutions being swapped, and the designs make more sense; Caterpie->Metapod Venomoth X Venonat Butterfree Caterpie/Metapod/Venomoth - (protruding horn-shaped head crest, much more rigid features, dilated eyes) Venonat/Butterfree - (same red eyes, same purple body, floppy feet, same antennae)

[@Hooy-H00y]

Beautifly should be below Dustox because all of it's dex entries describe her as being a total aggressive bloodthirsty menace who starts fights with everything. She's not even the savage serving type of aggressive, she's just a brute and a bully. DUSTOX ON THE OTHER HAND- Is generally just nonchalant and in her own lane, we love that.

[@thatcat1167]

This was a fun watch! I totally agree with basically everything you said. On an unrelated note, I just want to thank you for making these videos. I've always felt like the odd one out when playing pokemon, and watching pokemon youtubers, there was always a small disconnect for me. I've always liked to focus on the cute pokemon and the ones I thought were overlooked by the pokemon community. But now I found out that there's a community of people who share the same thoughts as me. So I just want to thank you for introducing me to a different side of the pokemon fandom that I never knew. I'll watch the rest of your videos, even if it's games I've never heard of, because you're so captivating! As for type recommendations, i'm really interested in what you have to say about the fighting type! I feel like that one will truly branch off into a different realm than what we've seen so far.

[@pastawater2969]

I always found it interesting that the very first Steel specialist was Jasmine, like they could have gone for an obvious manly man but they tried for girlypop right away

Let's be real. Vespiquen is not a girl's girl with her design, and might scare the other girlies with her pressure ability, but we can't ignore the gown, the regal serve, or that snatched waste 😭 Side note: I think a steel type tier list has potential and can definitely see you having fun with it!
