Some fun fact about Jasmine: According to her Pokemon Adventures GSC Arc, she was formerly a Rock-type specialist, using an Onix as her ace, then her Onix evolved into Steelix, a Pokemon that, at that time, was not documented anywhere by anyone. She handily defeated Brock using this unknown Pokemon in the Johto-Kanto exhibition series, prompting Prof. Oak to introduce the new Steel type into the mix.

It's actually very weird consider that Magnemite and magneton is in Kanto dex and they pretty much made of metal

Having Gallade and Dragapult on the same team

[@joseguadalupemartineztorre9702]

I always wished Gym Leaders were based on Type Moves, so you can only make a team that can resist specific moves. Like Brock prefers Pokemon that can use Rock type attacks, so you get Pokemon that use Rock Throw(Gen 1) or Rock Tomb(Gen 3), so any Pokemon that can learn it can be on his team. Or Stat specific, like Brock is Phys Def, Misty is Spl Def, Lt Surge is Speed, Erika is Phys & Spl Def, Koga is Phys Def & Spl Atk, Sabrina Spl Atk & Speed, Blaine is Phys & Spl Ark, Giovanni is Phys Atk & Def. That way Brock has an Onix Kabuto, while Misty has Starmie & Omanyte

32:14 I’ll say this about Melony. She seems to have come to accept Gordie’s choice of Rock types, considering in her rare league card, it’s stated that she became the first member of his fan club, and the picture seems to be her cheering him on, while he looks uncomfortable. Since it also says that their Pokémon battle ended up dividing the _town_ imma go out on a limb and say that they probably squashed their beef between each other and are just too busy to see each other, but the people of Circhester is out here thinking it’s still going on.

[@gamershadow8]

seeing their strained relationship actually made me really sad

[@samuellawrencesbookclub8250]

With Norman, I think it'd be cool if his second type was grass, fire or water, depending on which starter the protagonist chose, being the same type as said starter. Thematically this works with him being the protagonist's father, and - if we are allowed to break the regional dex rule in this instance - it could be one of the Johto starters, either in middle or final form, to reflect the character's Johto regipn origins.

[@negligible_reality]

personally i'd have him use the type that's super effective against your starter; this adds more challenge since it effectively cripples your ace and forces you to use a more type diverse team rather than relying on your starter as a crutch, but it also works since he literally tells you in-game that he won't battle you until you've become stronger and makes you come back to his gym later after getting your first few gym badges. that would make it all the more satisfying to finally beat him imo since he initially turns you away for being too weak to battle him, and then he'd be incredibly difficult to defeat once you do finally get to him since he uses the powerful Slaking and other strong normal types (like Belly Drum using Linoone, for example), plus a strong Pokemon that's super effective against your starter. that would really ramp up the challenge of Norman's gym battle and make it really live up to the in-story hype, making the player defeating their father in a gym battle seem like an even bigger achievement while also giving you the satisfaction of coming out on top after an intense battle.

[@enigmatic2878]

I support the idea that Norman should take the type STRONGER than your starter. If he's about balance, teaching you to balance your team is a nice touch

[@oliverleonard7730]

So you could just give him the 3rd starter that wasn't chosen in Littleroot?

Morty hot fix: He literally says he has Psychic powers in HGSS, give him Psychic types. Misdreavus, Haunter, and Gengar stay, but we also add Xatu and Drowzee. The Drowzee nods to his friend Eusine, who uses one. Jasmine, I think would work better as either Rock or Electric. Rock cause she used them before Steel type was discovered in the manga, and Electric because of both her Magnemite and because of the Ampharos she cares for. Pryce could be Ground because of Piloswine or Grass cause his middle name is Willow. Water still works best though.

Anyways Gardenia as a Grass/Poison makes way more sense, between her ace Roserade, her love for the move Toxic in the rematch, the fact you can catch Stunky nearby, and the fact she uses Bellossom in the rematch so she could easily have a Grass/Poison Gloom. Maybe even throw in a Carnivine, who is pure Grass but does learn Sludge Bomb (as a TM in DPPt, but as a level-up move in LA). Tangela also learns Poison Powder by level-up (in at least some generations) and is in the Pt Pokédex.

[@samperez1727]

@funnyyoshi The reason Pinsir isn't used by any Kanto gym leader is because there are no Bug specialists, and Pinsir doesn't have a secondary typing. There are no Kanto/Johto gym types that overlap. That's because you take all 8 types from Kanto, and all 8 types from Johto to give you 16/17 of all known types back then (Dark excluded). It is intentional game design, because Kanto and Johto are directly connected by geography, so players should encounter every type of gym after traveling through both regions. They threw a bone to Dark types by making the strongest Elite 4 member (Karen) a Dark-type specialist. If Bugsy had been a late-game gym leader, he might have had both Scyther and Pinsir, but since he wasn't, you couldn't justify giving him both.

I have came here to tell you that i figured out some people have psychic powers and others don't.(I have dug way too deep into this) So to be clear I'm refering to how some trainer and other people can levitate their pokeballs and stuff while most other people don't. My original theory was that either they learned it later on or were just born with them. Sabrina claims on her gym dialogue that she has had it since she was a child. Which you would THINK that would mean that some people are born with said powers, however in her ending dialogue she mentions that "Everyone has psychic powers, they just don't realise it". Which further adds to the confusion. And ok, maybe Let's go isn't Cannon, there are some Inconsistencies with the lore and the fact that red is not the champion and instead your rival while Red is still known has the champion of Kanto. So let's check her dialogue in Pokemon Yellow, the most "cannon" Kanto game. Oh wait IT'S THE SAME DIALOGUE. So, this could only mean that Sabrina was either trained to use her psychic powers at a young age. And assuming her end dialogue is accurate, that means that people can learn how to do psychic stuff wenether they want. They just don't do it for an unknown, and honestly dumb, reason.

4:00 Magmar and Electabuzz are named Magboo and Eleboo inn Japanese, the similarity is more than passing.

Actually magmar is boober

Impossible to avoid is very true, I saw someone attempt to do it where everyone got a different type but it was done poorly since no gym leader could share a type, this is much better and on the expected quality from the great leader of team sky!

[@youtube-kit9450]

It's pretty inevitable considering with 8 gyms, you'd need to use 16 out of 18 types.

2:01 Fun fact: in the TCG, there’s a card called Erika’s Ivysaur (there was also and Erika’s Bulbasaur), so technically, giving her one would be in line with something she’s ‘had’ in a sense. If you didn’t know/take this into account to begin with, your intuition was spot on! The card was originally released in Japanese in 1999 and in English in 2000. One of my favorite cards in my collection.

Can i just say i love all of these thumbnails? The high quality pictures of types on the white backyround just really does something for me. Idk what it is but i love it. Please keep making these.

4:14 "and frankly it's weird that they don't end up in his final battle." Yellow: Am I a joke to you? Persian exists on his Gym Leader team.

23:37 Grant is an athlete, like Marlon, by your logic he should be a fighting type...

[@kingxavierlovely]

You should one day do a "If every evil team admin had a full team of 6" video. That would be awesome!

[@dcbandit]

Id argue that Maractus, as one of my favorite pokemon, is NOT forgetable. It is a fun dancing cactus, what isn't to love?

[@silver_was_found]

Maractus is a lil cutie

[@simonrespeto]

It's stats, and also it's a little funky

[@JY-CS]

I'm calling it there's gonna be a diamond pearl rant

[@Spoul-does-drawing]

Yup but only a small rant at candice

[@Spoul-does-drawing]

And also Vaulkner

To be fair, that dex was an atrocity and deserves every bit of hate it gets.

2:12 and are associated with hypnosis which can help sleep, which is Erica’s whole thing
