Thank you for finally giving closure to this project. Since you're now working full time on your own game I doubt we will ever see another Team Buddy episode BUT I suspect the loose end of Mr Buddy ending up somewhere in the multiverse means his story may continue .. in Buddymon

OMG REALLY TEAM BUDDY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES I AM SO GLAD THEYRE BEING PUT IN A GAME!!!

[@thefly6537]

things that have happened in the wait for the conclusion of this series: -converted to Christianity -kicked a bunch of bad habits -got fit -got into college -got a driver's license -probably doubled or tripled the amount of friends I have -asked a girl out for the first time (got rejected lmao) -cleaned up my appearance -a bunch of other stuff (nothing else is coming to me at the moment) I don't know why I particularly care to make this comment. I guess that this series was my jam back in the early days of corona (worst time of my life btw) and, even if I never really thought of it actively, it has stuck with me. This series inspired me to make (terrible) Pokemon fanfiction, which led to serious improvements as a writer, now leading to today where writing is a big passion of mine and I consider myself quite good at it. Normally people would end (or begin) this sort comment by dismissing themselves, saying that you'd never actually read this. If you're at all similar to me as a creative, especially when the amount of feedback on this video is much more managable with a smaller channel, I'd bet you read every comment. So thanks for caring enough to figuratively close this chapter of my life, I guess.

[@djburk7930]

Pokémon Community on Sun/Moon: "The unshaking smile the protagonist has during the entirety of the game is disturbing." My Buddy: "And I took that personally." - Jokes aside, I loved the first Team Buddy video and I loved this one even more! All the aesthetic changes were top notch, and I especially loved the vintage-horror-movie aspects/references sprinkled throughout the Aether Foundation arc!

[@Jasrex1]

I love seeing Alola content seeing what would happen in a theoretical Sun and Moon 2 is amazing especially when its so well done

[@ajanis95]

And with this, the saga is complete.Or well, mostly lol. There's plenty of loose ends left (Skipped ahead a bit to see if anything was left unresolved). If you do plan on continuing this I will absolutely be here to watch it. And if you don't, I think is still a good way to end it. Regardless though, well done Buddy. This is an amazing accomplishment. Speaking of, as this is rather long I'll be breaking up my watching of it to sections. I'll just keep editing this comment with new bits as I go along.

Finally, at last, we get to see part for actual who’s scenes and not just audio dialogue finally after so long

[@crimsonchaos7224]

This video was awesome, but there are two things that I’m a bit iffy on: 1. You said at the beginning that the region the trainer hailed from affected some important aspects of the game, but (unless I misunderstood something) the only thing it changed was a single wolf Pokémon at the very beginning of the game. 2. While the idea of recruiting other trainers for the final mission is a really cool idea, I feel like there should be some positive effects of them joining, ESPECIALLY with Hylda, but (again, unless I misunderstood something) they don’t really do anything except ask for your help. Other than that this entire video was awesome, both in terms of concepts and quality.

[@Treeanne88]

When I was a boy.. I watched this and felt a connection to Lillie and wanted a continuation but now. I'm the girl I need to be and I know why and I am happy to see this continuation

[@arlohofilena4415]

Hello Mr. Buddy! I’ve been watching this series since the day I saw it. In fact, Team Buddy was one of the reasons why I became a fan of your channel and as an aspiring writer, your work has inspired me to emulate/explore similar concepts like Team Buddy in my own way. As such, I want to say how happy I am having seen this series completed. Having watched it from beginning to end, I’m very pleased with how this series went especially given the circumstances that you went through behind the scenes. The effort is admirable and Team Buddy itself was at its top form here. Seeing characters like Cynthia, Wicke, Lusamine, and Zossie Buddyized was horrifying yet alluring. So much so that I honestly don’t want them unbuddyized and got myself rooting for the villains here hehe. If possible I’d love to see an alternate world where Team Buddy won haha, but that’s just me. My favorite scene has to be the one with Buddyized Wicke and the Aether family calling out to Lillie via a message, it was presented well. If I do have some criticisms, it’s that I feel some of the Buddyized characters felt heavily underutilized near the end. I feel like certain Buddyized characters could’ve been given more exploration or scenes. For instance, have a fight where the Player and Lillie team up to fight a Buddyized Gladion. Maybe have it be a double battle with Buddyized Kris to keep it as the Player helping the strike team members. I also feel that Wicke and Fennel could’ve been part of the Fashionable Four, with Cynthia as the “champion” at the end. I feel like it makes sense since Fennel would be Team Buddy’s head scientist and Wicke was in charge of the Care Path. Other than that, I say you did a wonderful job despite the circumstances. Thank you for completing this wonderful video series and I wish you luck on your future projects.

[@azurelionheart]

After years where I thought the initial Pt. 4 video was the end of Team Buddy videos, it’s really heartwarming to have watched this 3+ hour compilation through to the end. I thought I remembered it pretty well, but I was reminded of a lot of details on this second watch, like how perfect a 50’s romantic-heavy jewelry store is for Olivia, or how unsettling, yet alluring the Player’s first meeting with B!Cynthia in Melemele is. With all of the extra art pieces, the postgame content suggestions, and knowing the *true* fate of Mr. Buddy that you wanted to express, I can say I’m proud of you for sticking through setbacks and making your vision a reality. I’ll admit that I kinda share some of the concerns others have brought up, that the Fashionable Four felt a bit under-utilized for how much presence they had before (ESPECIALLY Cynthia), and the story post-Father Beast feels a bit… anticlimactic, with the return to the Pokémon League and an uncertainty hanging around the location of Mr. Buddy and Lusamine- it feels like there’s another story to be told here, but I don’t expect you to be going back to it with your Buddymon project in the works. Still, the Team Buddy series has been a real treat to experience from beginning to end, and it’s helped me realize how much I love the 1950’s aesthetic- so much so that I ended up drawing several more Buddyized Pokémon variants and Buddyverse characters of my own. Thank you for all of the great memories this project helped inspire, and I’m wishing you the best of luck with your future endeavors!

[@DanielWeidner-li2yf]

I don't know why but I came up with a bunch of headcanons for this. 1. Even after getting freed from buddization, Cynthia still sometimes emits Lucid mist, but it usually comes out via Coughing or sneezing. 2. Lusamine still has her "Buddyized" outfit and wears it during formal events. 3. Gladion secretly has feelings for Cynthia. 4. Cynthia, Kukui, Cherry, and Lusamine became good friends after getting freed, having a group chat. 5. The Ultra Recon Squad Eventually found Mr. Buddy, and eventually returned him to Cherry. 6. Cynthia sometimes wears a beehive after the events of the game because she thinks it looks good on her. 7. Buddyized Cynthia sometimes has a very similar personality to Klara, she's a Tsudere to Baddy pretty much. 8. Lillie and Gladion eventually join the ultra recon squad to find their Mom.

I gotta say, it’s great to see the ending to this story at long last. I would say that if Buddy goes anywhere, he should go to Hisui or your ancient Kalos region. It would be fun to see him hop from game to game until getting back to his friends.

[@DragonBee259]

It’s great to see this series finally completed! The final part was infinitely creepier than I could’ve expected!

Hello! I don’t normally comment on videos, but it was wonderful to see this to its completion. I remember a few years back you had lost progress on it and that it really affected you. I watched the original videos when I was housesitting for family. I know you’re focusing on Buddymon right now, but I wanted to say thank you. I really enjoy the thought and storytelling you’ve put into your “what if [x] was a Pokemon region” series as well as the Buddyverse. I’m excited to see where you take this in the future if you work with it again, and thank you for your hard work on this sequel video.

Is it just me or would professor Kukui actually read a bedtime story to pyukumuku anyway? I am so happy you were kind enough to do this compilation and finish the whole story. I like the ending so much but it also broke my heart a little I hope Slodge Buddy is ok out there, and something gives me a feeling that this buddy AU where Mohn doesn't remember and reunite with his family had Lusamine end up stolen and or running away into ultraspace with evil Buddy somewhere and that later on they return happy schmoopy themselves and not evil because it turned out honestly both of them only ever went evil seperately because they were lonely (which was confirmed anyway) and meeting eachother they grew close and the Buddy that lost his Cherry just ends up with Un-buddyized Lusamine from Buddy returns and Greaser Buddy is out there somewhere still, alive, roughed up maybe sent to another time or dimension maybe set up to be evil again too

[@DrTechnoBabel]

Man, it's been so long that I actually forgot that the first three parts of this were already released. So when I was watching there were a bunch of moments where I felt his strong sense of deja vu, until the part with Acerola and Cynthia had me finally check the description to confirm I wasn't going crazy. Real happy I spent the evening watching this, and I have a feeling I'll be seeing a familiar greaser fall out of the sky when I finally get the chance to play Buddymon...

[@vegakira]

I've missed the team buddy story, the last video I remember probably had an iffy ending, I think I remember that in that sequel story from a few years ago, dapper buddy just clashed the world's with no warning, and won. But I'm glad that the evil team buddy from another dimension was gone, I'm sad that greaser buddy was killed off... BUT... I think I would like to see it come full circle with buddyverse Lillie getting a lead to find her Mr. Buddy. Probably Paldea, Kitikami, or the Bluebarry academy (which is somewhere east to Unova, poetic for the boss we knew and loved to be back home), and when Lillie finds him teaching, and had tonal culture shock whiplash, the old, greaser, fun loving Mr. Buddy comes back in that hypothetical story, and finally does one more fight against team buddy story, before closing the series off in a good light. Epilogue: Buddy, and the verbank slodges flies to Alola (we could also find Lillie's mother in the same regions I've mentioned.) And the aither family is reunited, stronger than ever, with Buddy and the rest of the gang go off in different directions, to protect their world by invading monsters, and parallel team buddy organizations, and they end up public heroes for their actions.
