I wonder if the games are going to let you play them on your own because I only play by myself plus I don't use the online part of the switch that's the red button.

[@umabomber]

I feel like that's how they advertised it in Sword and Shield promotional stuff too, but I'm too lazy to look it up. I'm hopeful either way that the online component is going to be much better, but until they actually say how it works I'm not going to assume something like that.

[@ChillingDusselgurr]

@@umabomber On the games' website it says you can do the regular multiplayer stuff (battling, trading) as well as "explore the region and discover new Pokémon with up to four people" (I assume they mean four in total, not you + 4). In other words, it seems similar to what the Let's Go games had, but can be done with more people

[@DragonStar-ox1zk]

I hope for Lechonk's evolution, they just make him bigger, slightly rounder, and give him small tusks. To me, that'd be the the perfect design for him. Also, can't wait to see the regional bird.

I’m still convinced Alomomola was originally meant to be a lovedisc evolution but since they introduced it in Black and White where there were supposed to be no connections to previous Pokémon they decided to make it a stand alone pokemon P.S. specifically I think it was originally designed as a GEN four Pokémon that was going to be another new evolution to an older Pokémon but it didn’t make the final cut.

[@MrZer093]

They claim that no mon that ever failed to make the cut for a gen has ever been in a later one. Though that said, it is only a claim and there has been proof of past mons that have been cut only been slightly altered for later gens (a few beta gen 2 mons look awfully similar to a few gen 3 mons)

[@furby9284]

@@MrZer093 Well the original Pokédex was supposed to be a lot larger but they had to cut it down due to hardware limitations. A lot of those cut Pokémon ended up being in Gold and Silver. So that statement was just untrue from the start. And it could be interpreted multiple ways. For example, Qwilfish was originally supposed to have an evolution. But Overqwill looks nothing like the beta Qwilfish evolution. So does that count as them going back on scrapped concepts?

The themes of these games seem to be past and future.

Whereas, everything in Violet looks futuristic: the professor looks like he just stepped out of Tron and the legendary looks like a robot version of the scarlet one.

That would be great! I have a Gastrodon on my Legends Arcoos team and it's so sweet

Wooper new form instead of gastrodon, as gastrodon is already the best snaily boi.

[@jonathanblaqk]

Water + Grass Type Gastrodon would be great! 🤔😊

I want to see scorbunny because its my favriot

[@kyliejoseph4203]

I got a heart attack when Mikey said that he cared more about Mytey than Castform

[@hollyhartwick3832]

I can relate to the then&now meme. I remember, when Ruby & Sapphire came out, being impressed that my character cast reflections in water and left footprints in sand. Pokémon graphics were never meant to be photorealistic. A cartoony look will always be the best fit.

[@edgyanole9705]

Yeah when pokemon tries to look realistic it looks worse

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

@@edgyanole9705 Except the Detective Pikachu movie, that one nailed it.

[@edgyanole9705]

I love Mikey's reaction to the trailer. He looks like he is not a youtuber trying to do his best to make up views... but one of us, a natural pokefan who gets genuinely hyped by the new content! ❤

[@SilverShinyCharizard]

mikey giving grunty boi the appreciation grunty boi needs and deserves was so awesome that entire conversation was just wholesome and great (timestamp: 4:56) also: grunty boi avatar, grunty boi avatar, grunty boi avatar at Least as like april fools joke with a little 'grunty boi has taken over the channel' or 'alternate universe where grunty boi is the main person on the channel and michael is the sponsor segment guy' twist for a day or something like that would be fun

[@berkell]

Funny that in Spanish a "Lechon" is a young pig and also a roasted pig plate. I love some Spanish based names.

[@kirakotobuki9195]

Hm... perhaps that means that Lechonk will evolve into a fire type. X3

[@Bunny2319b]

@@kirakotobuki9195 technically, Lechon/Cerdo is just what you normally call a pig regardless if it’s cooked or not. It’s different in other countries though… I hope it’s not a fire type cause we already have a fire pig in gen 5 lol

[@jordanisnotherern]

In my country we eat lechon

[@shahzadahaikalalandraroest501]

I like the looks of the game. The characters are super realistic and the graffics are great. I mean THE PROFESSOR IS A LITERAL GIGA CHAD

I'm so excited about Scarlet and Violet both of the new legendaries are really cool but I love the legendary that's in Violet more and I like purple so that's why I'm choosing Violet. Also Prawmi, Lecronk and Smoliv look so cute. And now Kirby and Mytey do look kinda related to me a bit.

[@SemiHypercube]

Thinking about how some people are joking that Lechonk will evolve by getting hit by a fire type move and it becomes a fire-ghost type

[@szymonwrobel7010]

Theres no way micheal hadn't heard about rocket edition Its like one if the best fire red rom hacks

I'm happy to see a new Pokemon Meme review, hope to see these more often

[@51N1]

My prediction of "The Incident" is that grunt boi did that bird call that was mentioned in the other video and then some birds became aggressive and lechonked the crap out of mikey and grunty boi

[@randomdoesadab]

6:07 Damn, Grunty boi got some moves

[@jpill7090]

I definitely think they’re doing a past, future thing with scarlet and violet, with the designs of the professors and also their names. Sada- paSADA (spanish for past) Turo- fuTURO (spanish for future)

[@OTGamer95]

And KORAIdon (korai=ancient in Japanese) MIRAIdon (mirai=future in Japanese)

[@NotExactlyholy]

I'm re watching basically all the ASPITPIAY/ Pokemon Meme Reviews because I feel like garbage after something happened yesterday and Mikey's comments, laughter, and personality in all the videos has gotten me to grin pretty big despite it, can't wait for the next one .

[@NavyBlueDude]

I'm going to be perfectly clear about this. Lechonk is a cute little Pokémon and must be protected at all costs.

[@placid268]

Lechonk is the equivalent of being a upward trend in Le Stonks

[@sophiaetka22]

As soon as I saw Ron’s reaction to the trailer.... I knew Lechonk would be a huge meme.

[@octokraken6359]

I’m so excited for this game! The new rival looks super cool.

[@PokekaiPJArchives]

15:05 So wait. A theory. Snom are just Grubbin that wound up in very cold places, and eventually evolved (not Pokémon evolution) to change and it’s evolution too, thus introducing Snom and Frosmoth into the world. Or maybe the other way around.

[@jaylen7747]

Always has bin

[@carsonHAUab]

Snom is a moth and grubbin is a beetle

[@bloodystatic4156]

You know, Grunty Boi is just Mikey if he never had puberty.

@@a.watsonishi I'm honestly hoping Smoliv evolves into a grass/fire type with an olive pit made of fire - I've seen that speculation going around. That'd definitely push it up in the rankings.

5:00 that was weirdly perfect

[@NathanFrazer273]

One thing I have to complain about in the trailer is that the following Pokémon feature so far seem to be just like the DLC version for sword and shield. You can see Feucoco far behind the trainer it was following, quite concerning seeming that this might be a feature in the game that you cannot turn off...
