Patterrz Reacts to Who is the Strongest Pokemon Anime Character

[@FalseSwipeGaming]

LOL loved your reaction! I'm glad you laughed at your bits! We look forward to your reaction for the 3rd video!

[@kristopherwillis8075]

I love your watching videos 😊

[@Yoponyo]

31:24 So this scene was in fact out of character for Gou, because, in every other episode, he is very aware of the type chart and will bring a Pokémon with him that has a type advantage against the one he's going to battle, but for some reason in this scene they have him ask Ash what's good against an Ice/Fairy-type.

[@winterflower1352]

I love how they got Goh voice actor for this

[@EstebanWolf1986]

Thank you for reacting to the video! We have a lot of fun writing and making these top 10s at False Swipe Gaming, looking forward to see how you react to the 3rd installment when we drop it!

[@RustyRed2804]

I think the problem with the Pokemon anime is that it goes from such high highs to such low lows really quickly. After seeing Ash battling in the Pokemon league with a team of 6 powerful Pokemon who have been trained over the course of three seasons, going back to Ash with Pikachu, an unevolved starter and a route 1 bird or something is very hard to watch because it just feels so underwhelming compared to what you just watched.

[@PokeMadness1996]

You literally do the samething when you buy a new Pokemon game the anime just handles it in a unique way If he kept his strong team the whole time it would be boring It’s more about the fun of the adventure Don’t be a buzzkill

[@Roseberry606]

This is why im glad they didn't put ash in the new anime Don't get me wrong ash was cool and iconic, but i needed that breath of fresh air

[@WiiFan-1300]

True lol. (But i do love the restarts… except the Snivy situation; we don’t talk about the Snivy situation)

[@JustinWPruett]

This bothers me far less than the classic “Ash’s level 100 Pikachu lost to a level 5 Snivy”. When they refuse to use their own world’s logic, it’s hard to be invested. Even a kid’s show should follow its own rules.

[@blaze048]

​@@PokeMadness1996 which is exactly why they do that (or did)

[@stephenyang8333]

Do want to mention that FSG put up a Community Post about this video - basically saying “hey, yeah, Ash should have Gengar, Hawlucha, and Solgaleo here, so he’s probably above Paul, our bad”.

[@Lt_Chloe]

Ash also caught ultra beasts

[@TheMagic1412]

@@Lt_Chloe yes, he has an ultra beast on his team line up in the video.

[@MasterAbeer101]

Ash would have had a total of 105 points if factoring Hawlucha, Gengar and Solgaleo so he would have won in terms of raw points but they still stand on Goh being number 1 cause he has team synergy which is valid point

[@FalseSwipeGaming]

Yeah we somehow overlooked Gengar and Hawlucha. As for Solgaleo, we thought it wasn't a Pokemon he actually owned like how Giovanni temporarily controlled the three Genies in black and white but didn't actually own them.

[@doheonlee6703]

@@FalseSwipeGamingbut considering that pikachu had a flashback of all his Pokemon and it included Solgaleo (in the battle against Leon), I think it is safe to say Nebby is just a released Pokemon owned by Ash.

[@blackoutamvs6550]

24:55 dude forgot Ash canonically owned solgaleo. If eternatus was given to leon should Ash also have Solgaleo

[@primrosevale1995]

To be fair, the only reason Suicune let itself be caught by Goh was because it had purifying lakes near non-stop and was thus extremely tired, only to then be poisoned and ambushed by the poachers. It knew with Goh there was at least a chance it wouldn't end up chained up and abused, so it willingly let itself get caught.

[@theonlineninja7596]

For FULL context about Eternatus, while Goh did give Eternatus to Leon, he DOESN'T use it for his final battle against Ash. But it DID make an appearance during their battle but not to interrupt it, but it went over to Hammerlocke Stadium as the battle between Ash and Leon caused so much intense energy that Eternatus escaped the Galar Power Plant to go over and stabilize the immense amount of Galar particles that had appeared around the Stadium during the battle before flying off. What was in Eternatus's place for Leon's team is Mr. Rime, but it shouldn't be underestimated. It defeated Ash's Gengar, and took on Ash's Sirfetch'd before falling to Ash's Lucario and it FORCED Ash to Mega Evolve Lucario to take it down.

[@castform7]

That Mr. Rime was causing problems while shmooving. I gotta respect it.

[@Crxsseyed1]

Few things to know about sawyer: For one, he’s one of ashs main rivals of gen 6, being the main one before Alain showed up in xyz, he’s actually beaten ash before (granted, ash wasn’t in a good headspace, but he still won) and is a top 4 of Kalos, only being behind ash, Alain, and diantha, seemingly

[@natalimoina]

He isn't

[@FuryMcpurey]

Goh can afford to feed all his Pokémon because he works for a Professor who runs kind of a sanctuary park.

[@sophiedowds726]

sawyer is from the heonn region because when we first see him he says he got his treecko from professor birch

[@elitovon2833]

Isn’t He supposed to be a ORAS rep

[@Syiepherze]

​@@elitovon2833 ORAS is literally Hoenn bro

[@laughingd4518]

[@PavementXL]

28:27 is that Goh’s real voice actor?! That’s sick actually, I know I’ve heard their voice before, maybe from Big City Greens?

[@mystatnight]

I predicted Goh the minute I understood the way they were ranking.

[@HamsterBaddy]

25:53 "There has to be atleast one champion in here" - Cynthia and Leon staring Patterz to death

[@rickbill06]

The thing about ash is that he shoud be allowed to use all his mechaniques just like in the league. Mega lucario, G-max gengar and z-move pikachu all in one team for him to be to his fullest potential.

[@xenfast130]

As someone that really enjoys Goh and personally ranks him as one of my favorite companion characters, him being No. 1 was a nice surprise. While I doubt he'll ever actually be that good in canon even with some Legendaries under his belt, I do think he'll be a high level trainer eventually since he said he wants to be a trainer worthy of Eternatus when he left it with Leon.

[@CaramelAshe]

Honestly, after the character reset and retiring Ash. The anime got really good. Liko and Roy are great protagonists and the power scaling of the anime finally makes sense again

[@pampoplayer]

I hate to say it but Ash retiring saved the anime

[@Roseberry606]

Agreed tbh, imo horizons is probably the most banger pokemon anime i've watched It singlehandedly got me back into pokemon after i lost interest a few years ago

[@nibiru_22]

I think they should’ve retired Ash back in Kalos where he should’ve won the league. Heck I’d say he should’ve retired back in gen 4 if Tobias didn’t exist

[@pikapikachu8568]

But viewership got cut down ​@@pampoplayer

[@RabblesTheBinx]

Hot take: Ash should have been retired at the end of the Orange Islands arc and replaced starting with Johto.

[@AussieDragoon]

Sawyer was one of Ash's secondary rivals in the XY anime, which is something they started doing in Diamond and Pearl where Ash would have a few minor recurring Rivals in addition to his main one to help round who he would face in the Pokemon league so it wasn't just a bunch of one-off randos. Though the way the anime plays out, Ash is more like Sawyer's rival, since Sawyer started behind Ash and had to quickly catch up to his level by the league.

[@Crxsseyed1]

Honestly, I wouldn’t consider him a secondary, once he showed up, he immediately got to show himself as ash’s rival, I’d say if Alain wasn’t part of xyz, ash would either face sawyer or diantha herself as the final fight, he may not show up as often as someone like Paul, but when he did, it mattered

[@animegamefan8678]

Tbh. Sawyer was Ash's main Kalos rival. Ash didn't even meet Alain until after he got his 7th badge.

[@goodhelmetjunior3399]

Gary never Mega Evolved his Blastoise so it wasn’t taken into account.

[@AIenhancedMusic]

The real answer: Plot armor is the strongest character in the Pokémon anime. But Patterrz’ reactions are a close second.

[@Shadyshadow_thevoid]

If you haven't watched gen 6 anime you haven't lived

[@VanshPatel-rd9of]

Pat your the fricking goat keep up the great videos

[@awesometastic-1017]

I will say, I think Journeys had a lot of good episodes and I loved seeing Ash become a Pokemon Master. Goh was also a great companion because he was really playing his own game but also had that same love of Pokemon in general. I think I also liked Goh because, if I was in the Pokemon world, I, too, would just want to run around and catch/train them all.

[@peteypiranalover]

Bramdon does have Regigigas 21:43 He caught it later

[@SweetBananaDigital]

That was Goh’s voice actor, which was an awesome cameo.

[@alexanderwee2055]

[@Firemalleoandjelly]

27:34 Yes but Ice types have been notorious for being bad in most generations and if you're don't use ice types then you don't have stab on those moves.

[@jayd.doubledubs]

YESSS FINALLY!!! A little sad that he didn't check out the Google doc in the comments but oh well For anyone curious, by their rules, FSG said that Ash should've had Hawlucha and Solgaleo instead of Charizard and Torkoal, leading to a total of 100+ points However, Goh still has an overall more competitive team even by Ubers standards so they still give Goh the #1 spot For the latest animes, Pokemon Journeys, the last season with Ash, is a mixed bag. Pokemon Horizons, the new show without Ash, is pretty fricking good.

[@natalimoina]

Journeys is perfect

[@gettingiggywitit9970]

BKC did NOT understand the assignment when he rated Giovanni LMAO

Gen 5 was absolute dog, gen 6 was the peak of Pokemon and the greatest series till date, gen 7 has to be the most underrated and it's amazing if I'm completely honest, just the artwork is a bit off, and gen 8 is pretty mid, could have been the best but nah they fumbled

[@tylers50505]

Gen 1 was absolutely the best series with the first movie being the cap off for gen 1.

[@SS4Luxray]

@@tylers50505in terms of having the most complete story within in its respective series, Gen 1 (including the orange islands) is the best.

[@samaropgaming7576]

@@tylers50505 i respect your opinion but let's be realistic, gen 1 ain't anywhere near gen 6, i mean the nostalgia and all is cool but character development, plot and one of the best villain arcs with the best gimmick (mega evo). Yeah i doubt there's any competition here

[@theonlineninja7596]

While Best Wishes wasn't exactly the best series, looking past its flaws I honestly always felt the series was good with the character interactions and development. The various tournament arcs really helped in that aspect because we got to see all the characters interact with each other rather than their rivals. Best Wishes HAD some great ideas and characters, and it's far from the worst thing I've seen. It was so refreshing to see Jessie, James, and Meowth be actual threats, including the fact Giovanni did actually do something later on in the Meloetta arc. Best Wishes had genuine potential and it does feel unfair to constantly bash on it, especially when there were a lot of problems the team that worked on the anime had to endure. Like how it started out extremely strong with the buildup to Team Rocket Vs. Team Plasma before being retconned out of existence due to the episodes having REALLY unfortunate timing as the 2011 earthquake happened LITERALLY right when the episodes were about to air.

[@SS4Luxray]

@ and ppl always hate on Cameron but the dude earned 8 badges and had a fully evolved team minus riolu before evolving. He even had an OP hydreigon, so he definitely wasn’t a weak trainer at all

The new anime actually has a pretty solid story, yes it's not ash but I like the characters tbh they have alot of depth.

[@supermariomaker1734]

The closest thing to Pokémon worlds in the anime was the grand festival cause it was all doubles battles but the condition was that you had to impress the judges or knock out the players Pokémon plus if the opponent missed they can lose points which is different from vgc where all the Pokémon have to be fainted to end the battle.

Pokemon Horizons is a pretty good anime. Without Ash you can finally show characters with an actual personality. And it includes the best Pikachu yet with the Captain. I would recommend it.

[@jenniferdaniels701]

If you want to check out Gens 5-8, XY and Sun and Moon are the best. I'd still watch the others to know what happened, but Black and White is usually not the top of people's list (but you'll get to see future champion Iris's journey), and Journeys is hit or miss for me. Some episodes are good, but with COVID near the beginning of the series and issues behind the scenes. And I've reached the point that no matter what they did in Journeys, since it's the end of Ash's journey in the anime, no one could ever be completely satisfied with how it ended. But the last episode of Aim to be a Pokemon Master was perfect, imo. (trying not to spoil it) Goh?! GOH!? Well, he's a brand new trainer and caught Suicune and Regileki, and left Eternatus in Galar for Sonia to study (Leon worked with them too). But he doesn't take battling seriously until the series ends. We see him starting the gym challenge in a montage at the end.
