Naming Every Pokémon? It's Harder Than You Think.

[@PelemusMcSoy]

There was a time when I used to know all the in game cries so well that my friends had to mute their games when picking out a team to battle against me.

[@hitavi4965]

I think the last time I knew all the cries in the games was gen IV, now that there's 1000+ pokemon there's no way I'd be able to recognize every cry

[@anuninterestingcottonball4533]

i recognize the cries i hear often, S/V helped with that

[@nerdyfalco408]

Me too, I used to go one by one in the BW2's pokedex just to memorize them

[@linkyloo1370]

Me with gen 4

[@generous6200]

Same, I knew every evolution level and even at which level what move is learned of most of the pokemon

[@abscinding]

Flygon took "oh you like Pokemon? Name every Pokemon" quite literally.

[@a_delightful_nerd]

The fact you didn't miss any til Gen 5 is impressive AF. Superior game knowledge.

[@Ylurple]

*Serperior

[@luishenriquefalconifilho2124]

I love doing these quizzes (specially on pkmnquiz), and I always struggle with Gen 2-Gen 5, specially Gen 2... there's always some bugger I forget

[@RenewedRS]

He's literally reading his chat lol he didn't do it alone

[@garorade]

​@@RenewedRS y so wrong

[@RenewedRS]

you obviously weren't a part of the stream then @@garorade

[@MackeyD3]

Props to the editing for making this way more entertaining than I thought it would be

[@Bluedemon52]

The Ole, flygon special.

[@Tomch1234]

Suggestion - do nuzlockes for each gen you didn’t get 100% - and you can ONLY use the ones you forgot/didn’t get. To make even harder, you can’t include those you didn’t get due to spelling and if you got the evolution, but not their previous stage (e.g. wiglett) you can catch that but NOT evolve.

[@Nigolasy]

RIP Gen5 Run with only Alomomola, Frillish and Jellicent xD

[@lanceams483]

Acing the first four gens goes to show how much knowledge you have of those generations. You also came pretty close in Gen 5, which you've done a decent amount of playthroughs on this channel. I think if the timer was longer like in gens 1-3 you would have been able to reach nearly all of gen 6 and a bit more of gen 7. Gen 8 and 9 were kinda lost causes, they're so recent I'm not surprised you've forgotten the names but remembered some of the faces.

[@televisione3365]

There is a precise quiz for naming all the Pokémon without doing one generation at a time, it would have been more accurate calculating how much time it would take you to name all of them

[@PedroHenrique-mk5zi]

3:23 The visual gag with Magnemite and Magneton was great.

[@EpicAlucard]

I love the fact he was mostly foiled by the inability to *spell* the names rather than remember them 😅

[@katiekatecat]

Yeah I noticed especially as he got to the second half of the gens that some of the names and spellings got more and more ridiculous lol

[@GrogieSnople]

Out of 1021 Pokemon, you only missed 80, that's some damn good memory

[@Briggz001]

The editing is fantastic!!!!! I laughed so hard on paras. Great job with these quizzes. Very fun content.

[@FIFAmusicMAN]

The animations as pokemon were named were SO GOOD! A+ editing

[@DOW1100]

13:43 Swellow deez nuts! You might have dodged the first 2 but not this one

[@LassyReal]

More suitable for me to listen to him in my sleep, it’s like counting mareeps, just pure calm.

[@ReadyJP]

Do you remember that one Pokémon? You know, the one with that thing thats really cool but people struggle to pronounce the name? I love that Pokémon

[@thesalinator3557]

The Gen 3 pokedex remains one of the most memorable for me. You can mentally go through all of Emerald, and manage to hit every single pokemon in the dex. Even for the more forgettable mons, like Roselia, there is some trainer that pops into the mind (The Aroma Lady at Mauville beach, in this case). Genuinely one of the best designed games in terms of mon distribution.

[@xord6286]

never forget the ace trainer with the milotic on the rainy route

[@kuks0453]

Huntail moment

[@thesalinator3557]

@@kuks0453 When you do the Magma underwater cavern quest, the dude at slateport gives you a Deep See Tooth or Scale. That's how I remember the Clamperl line. That, and the fact that it's one of like, two Pokemon you can encounter underwater.

[@blablablabla3878]

chimecho definitely appears in emerald

[@TheKd8lvt]

14:50 - Alpharad really did give me a pavlovian response to Dating START!, didn't he? Was fully expecting a "This video is sponsored by..."

[@alijohar4937]

This is extremely impressive. I would have only gotten gen 3

[@tizziiz]

I'm gonna enjoy watching this vid later today! I routinely try out the sporcle quizzes myself, it's really fun to go back and see how many more you can get from the last time, and keep track of your time scores! I've been able to complete Gens 1 - 7 with minutes to spare, I'm even able to complete Gen 3 and 4 in dex order! Gens 8 and 9 continue to be trouble, since I've never been able to play the Switch titles, I'll never be fully versed in their mons, but its fun to see how many i do know off the top of my head.

[@k.m.2629]

Tried to take each quiz before watching Flygon's answers and was shocked by how many Gen II Pokemon I just had no idea how to spell.

[@psymar]

fun fact: feraligatr is spelled that way because back in gen 2 Pokemon names were restricted to 10 letters. not a lot of space on a GBC rom, every byte counted!

[@willmueller6441]

Gulpin' deez nuts, actually caught me off guard and made me cackle hahhaahahah thanks FlyG! Kudos to the editing job as well! Awesome Video :)

[@Blooby]

wtf how are you so good at this :0

[@its_familam]

There is something very relaxing about the pokemon quizzes.

[@CleverUsername69420]

This so interesting to me, as a new player, because I could probably get half of Gen 1 (older players always talk about it) and Gen 8 (Sw/Sh was my first game), clear Gen 9, and bomb the rest.

[@soverignson7211]

I will never not laugh at "RAT POWER!"

[@ethan2060]

Flygon with the “gotta pay the bills vid” love to see it

[@thecubanbear5840]

You did really well! The times for the later generations were a bit strict, so I'm sure you would have done better if they gave you a little more time

[@Cloud-gk2lk]

Just realized that UniClr OST in the background at 10:47

[@pedrito2547]

This one was so fun, you should do more content like this flyg

[@IndyJay53]

Props to Izzy for real. That looked like so much work! And it was still engaging despite what could've been a very boring topic.

[@AdamTheWeeb]

The editing on this video made it so much more interesting to watch, just wanted to say thank you for it because I know it would've taken forever 😅

[@meow.4972]

I love whoever edited this lol EDIT: apparently their name is Izzy!!! Props to Izzy! :D

[@jaketheglutenphreakharris6620]

FLYGON!! I’d LOVE to see a Steve Irwin themed run where you only use herps (reptiles and amphibians). You could do it as a scarlet or violet nuzlocke?

[@tizziiz]

Oh! You could do the pokemon cries quiz too, that's a really fun one! Especially Gen 1 and its infamous identical 8bits

[@RemusGolurk]

I can do gens 3, 4, 5, and 6 because those are my childhood and teenagehood. Gen 1 and 2 are too early on me and gen 7 and beyond just got so convoluted that I gave up

[@E-Lykos]

I'm such an old man that the only gen I can reliably name as a gen is gen 1, all the other gens have blended together for me. I know the Pokémon but am mostly useless at putting them in a specific gen

[@kheireddineattala1281]

I can do 1-4 (4 not reliably) after that it gets super hard

[@zamen7545]

Since Sun & Moon were my first games I can reliably name Gen 7. Along with Gens 1 through 3, because of all the gen 3 rom hacks I played as a kid.

[@l1nx258]

​@Edwardlucas1989 I also am beginning to feel like an old man, things like this do nothing to counter that.

[@than_487]

I'd say those are the gens I'm confident with as well, but for different reasons. Gen 3 was all the romhacks I'd play, 4 is my favorite, 5 is my first and 6 has a tiny dex and I've played it 1k hours. Sure, I can name the first two too, and maybe a bunch of the later ones, but that range is probably my best. It's not often I see someone name that specific range!

[@Accidental.Creation]

I could maaaaybe get the first three gens down, but after that it gets tough, lol.

[@shiny_lock]

Lol I love sporcle. During my free time at school I do this quizzes until I knew all of them. Now I do pokemon moves. So far memorized all normal type moves.

[@thundermarisol]

Shoutout to editor Izzy for using the Another Dimension theme at the beginning, I always love hearing my fav Kirby song in videos :D

[@SeveralGhost]

This is just a fraction of his Doctor Power

[@KatonRyu]

That was ridiculously good. Even though I've played so much Pokémon in my life when I did the test I didn't even get all the gen one mons. Not because I didn't know them at all, but I'd just forgotten them completely.

"Porygon-Z. Easy to forget." Why must you hurt me like this.

[@TheMrIndecisive]

So the breakdown of everything he got right because I'm a weirdo for numbers lol Gen 1: 151/151 100% Gen 2: 100/100 100% Gen 3: 135/135 100% Gen 4: 107/107 100% Gen 5: 153/156 98.07% Gen 6: 68/72 94.44% Gen 7: 72/88 81.81% Gen 8: 72/96 75% Gen 9: 83/116 71.55% Total: 941/1021 92.16% So a solid A- on a test with over a thousand questions. That's why he's a pro

[@tani7895]

I at least wanted to do Gen one and I only got 124/151. Some of them I did forget were in Gen one, such as Pinsir, but my biggest mistakes were Doduo, Dodrio, Porygon, Krabby, Kingler, Hypno, and Drowzee.

[@Imaginary_tour]

Man, that timer did you dirty on Gen 5 :O

[@YokuneRukochu]

I'm obsessed with these quizzes, i come back to them every once in a while. I can get every Pokemon from gen 1-8. Though its only recently i was able to get all of 8. 9 i have managed all of them except like 3. I don't remember which Pokemon they were but it was out there ones like Rellor and Bramblin. A couple tricks I find are helpful while doing them is: 1- reciting the pokerap(s), or any verses of it you do know. That only applies to gens 1, 2 and 3. 2- going through the game in order in your head.. though obviously thats going to work for some games more than others. 3-try to go out of your way to remember the obscure ones. Most people when doing the quiz for gen 1 forget Exeggcute and Exeggutor, for example 4-thinking of not only your favorites(which is an obvious thing to do lol) but also your friends favorites. How can i forget Magcargo when I know one of my friends really likes it? (Most of why I even remember that is because its a niche fave as-is lol) Anyway very cool to see this get done and show people that the quizzes exist, I think they're so fun and really train your brain and typing. 😊

[@mkjirak]

The only reason I was able to get Glimmora and Tinkaton and associated pre-evolutions is because my niece used them on her first play through of Gen 9.

[@TomAmit42]

00:18, 06:41 - I have memorized all Dex Numbers of Gen 1, but I type very slowly (cuz English is my second language), so in the past (when the timer on this quiz was only 10 minutes) I was unable to fill this quiz on time despite fully knowing the answers.

[@Volo3024]

does anyone know the theme that plays in the first five minutes of the video?

[@DonCarlosBack]

this is oddly entertaining to watch

[@ShadowWasntHere8433]

It’s okay Flygon, you got 100% of Gen 1-4, which are the ones that matter

[@thesanttu5359]

I love the Finland cap!

[@OriginalJokee]

Flygon probably has the biggest advantage considering all the random Pokémon he had to use in nuzlockes

[@Semicolon-Carrot-Parenthesis]

I need to know what is the song in the background starting at like 17:56

[@lt_alenko]

This video is so relaxing and I have no idea why

[@vegancardigan]

I am surprised i knew a lot of them and at least recognized most of them and i never played pokemon, and watched the cartoon a little like 10+ years ago, i guess thanks to your videos i now know a substential amount of pokemon

Not gonna lie you did absolutely amazing I mean I guess you picked the right profession Dr. Oneball

[@joeytabora1052]

I know this is a month old video by now, but in case you didn't know, you can pause Sporcle quizzes. It will hide the quiz, but if you just need to think it's worth it imo, since there's decent chunks of time when you're not typing and the timer is just counting down anyway

[@olisepha]

the moment i have to type them myself all knowledge vacates my brain. i was watching and playing along and came up with so many, then i paused to try gen 9 myself and just. blanked. couldnt even remember any of fuecocos evolutions. i got like 35% or smth. even for gen 5 (my fav game) my first attempt where a measly 65% (tho in fairness, i played those games in german as a kid, so i missed a couple in the quiz bc i only remembered the german names). your scores are really impressive!!

[@byakko6]

Since regular doing Pkmnquiz I can name everyone up to and including Gen 6. Gen 5 and 3 even in Pokedex order Would recommend this rather than the quiz Flygon did since you have many more options and it's visually nicer

[@lovevagrant]

I did this thing months ago challenging my Discord pals, and it was a real blast. Ironically, I forgot some of my favorite Pokémon along the way (somehow I forgot Jumpluff and Wooper), and once I got to Gen 6 and 7, I began to draw blanks more frequently. I think I got 85-90% of the quizzes on average, and felt proud but worried at the same time. One funny tidbit is that I almost got the entirety of the Hoenn dex, but I forgot about some of the Sinnoh ones, and Diamond being my first game, I felt ashamed, but glad at the same time since I find Gen 3's mons to be a good chunk of my favorites as a whole.

[@brixnoobix]

Quick tip, it's more efficient to write one pokemon of the evolution line and completing it after

[@charteon9092]

Ok so I stopped watching the video for a bit, and then came back to the end of the sinnoh section with no idea what you had done. And when you had two left I just said in my head “oh it’s shellos and Gastrodon” with complete confidence. I think I’m a god.

[@Frigi2ck]

i do these quizzes every couple of months to keep my pokemon knowledge in check. before i watched this video, i ran through them again and mananged to get an average of 84%. :)

[@jackvincent159]

What about a game where you have to catch all the ones you missed?

[@timmaia5082]

You did really well man, don't beat yourself up over it!

[@YGO_BERRY]

Ah yes, Frillish, Jellicent, and Alomola. My favorite threer in Pokemon.

[@Torosiken]

you're really cruising this, i forget a lot whenever I'm filling this in hahaha

[@user-uv2cp1qd1j]

I don’t know if it is within the limits of what Sporcle can handle, but it would be cool to combine these all into a single quiz. Let’s say 85 minutes for about 5 seconds per mon.

[@jabob1588]

There’s a quiz on a different website! It’s called like pkmn quiz I believe :)

[@kingpearlshine]

I mean. Missing 80 out of over 1000, you still did good lol. That’s like 92ish%.

This was actually pretty fun, good as always

[@palyername]

i feel like i should say i saw this video a week ago and literally put off watching it to do it on pkmnquiz until i could do it in under 97 minutes. no i don't know why i'm like this. absolutely incredible to me that like visually using pkmnquiz you can see that gen 4 has not very many pokemon compared to the rest of the gens and half of them are babies/evolutions of pokemon from previous games lmao
