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

I tried to name every single Pokémon in one sitting. Why? I don't know.

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

[@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

[@MackeyD3]

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

[@Bluedemon52]

The Ole, flygon special.

[@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

[@narri_l_official]

I knew about this

[@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

[@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.

[@PedroHenrique-mk5zi]

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

[@GrogieSnople]

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

[@FIFAmusicMAN]

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

[@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

[@LassyReal]

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

[@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

[@Briggz001]

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

[@alijohar4937]

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

[@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

[@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!

[@soverignson7211]

I will never not laugh at "RAT POWER!"

[@its_familam]

There is something very relaxing about the pokemon quizzes.

[@ethan2060]

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

[@tizzii143]

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.

[@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.

[@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 :)

[@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?

[@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..."

[@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

[@pedrito2547]

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

[@meow.4972]

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

[@tizzii143]

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

[@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 😅

[@Lost_In_Neverwhere]

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

[@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.

[@aliciaha1514]

the editing is unironically so good in this video

[@RemusDraws]

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!

[@SeveralGhost]

This is just a fraction of his Doctor Power

[@dylanlangford7786]

an edited 50min video, props to the editor omg

[@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.

[@praalgraf]

very nice job to the editor for making this so fun !

[@Blooby]

wtf how are you so good at this :0

[@nymphy8456]

We felt the panic increase as the video progressed 😂 but frankly you did really well !

[@isabellaw2130]

Editing on this video was so good and hilarious XD

[@slateportraichu5416]

That was impressive=3 Editing is also top-notch! =3

[@andresanches6719]

This was actually pretty fun, good as always

[@BasketOfPuppies642]

Izzy did a great job editing

[@Doomsword0]

What’s even more impressive is you *mostly* do it in dex order!

[@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.

[@skinny771]

I’ve been really sick but during that rat power everything seemed okay

[@tsifirakiehl4250]

I hope you feel better soon!

[@Dr.Barber]

I've got 1-5 pretty clean, 6 with some difficultly, 7 onwards is where I really start crapping out on every name.

[@theknightwithabadpictotall7639]

Bro put a shiny Regieleki on screen and thought we wouldn't notice

[@pawechabrowicz2895]

This video is so relaxing and I have no idea why

[@Cptgreenbeetle]

I always remember that shellder and cloyster come before ghastly line because i thought the black ball inside of cloyster died and became the ghastly when i was 5

[@chimeratriplett2319]

as the worlds biggest and perhaps only pidove stan, i was so sad when you said "ew" 😭 so harsh dr. HG

[@OriginaIJoke]

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

[@kevinsherwood8677]

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

[@SilverSmith459]

This is just a montage of every time Flygon HG has ever caught a Pokémon

[@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.

[@thesanttu5359]

I love the Finland cap!

[@PiachsonNiga]

Another banger of a video, you never stop to make me laugh

[@BloomThe2nd]

Give this editor a raise!!! xD

[@timmaia5082]

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

[@newdonkshitty]

The UNI character select theme, your editor has good taste

[@DonCarlosBack]

this is oddly entertaining to watch

[@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

[@tornadey018]

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.

[@DOW1100]

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

[@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.

[@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

[@samuelbennett3528]

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

[@chrisbarks]

Love the Muna pop up

[@AkikoUzumaki]

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!!

[@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

[@kodylevanseler9398]

Gotta love the under night music rep

[@SofSof.]

I'm so impressed :O Makes me think I should play through all the pokemon games again xdd

[@ilexdiapason]

vanillite was one of the gen 5ers i was surprised you didn't have to hand straight away - it's the quintessential "pokemon designers running out of ideas" line to me

[@imthatguy89]

13:11 that’s how I remember how spell beautiful too

[@Torosiken]

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

[@Robbi_]

Well done bro I would have guessed until gen 4

[@nomnomnomturtle2708]

I can consistently get like 140 on Gen I and around 100 for gen III, although I grew up on ORAS and Let’s Go so that makes sense - Gen II, IV and V are impossible for me, but I love so many of the Pokémon in them! Gen VI - IX are lost causes though for me, though if you named a Pokémon I could easy tell you what Gen it’s from - quite strange! Great video by the way.

[@setelinsuhina]

Nice cap with a nice flag. I got first and second gen right but third gen was too hard for me. Beyond third gen I had no chance to know those :D Happy holidays! Ps. You make good content keep it up!

[@melindamuller4466]

I missed Remoraid, Octillery, Smeargle, Delibird, Togekiss, Magnezone, Alomomola, Sandygast, Pallosand, Pyukumuku, Yamper, Boltund, Galar Farfetchd and Sirfetchd, Milcery, Alcemie, Pincurchin, Indeedee, Clobbopus, Grapploct, Kubfu and Urshifu; I have not yet done gen 9, but that is probably gonna go badly.

[@Radar_of_the_Stars]

a quiz with all of the pokemon you missed would be fun

[@jaredadkinson]

As an avid pokemon nerd and trivia quiz enthusiast, I recommend jetpunk over sporcle

[@brixnoobix]

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

[@ls-metro9362]

40:48 I spit my drink and died

[@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.

[@Whacko2]

Great video boss!

[@Frigiduck]

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%. :)

[@mysticmaya9426]

Whoa that's so impressive. I play a ton of pokemon but I could never remember so many names

[@marcustulliuscicero5443]

I'm so infuriantingly bad at those quizzes. I literally have a picture of the pokemon in my mind, notable roles in the game (major member of gymleade, E4, team bosses, goat encounters), or what they do in competitive. But I can't for the live of me not remember their name.

[@Caffeinated_Firefly]

i tried gen 1 before watching and got 77%. its interesting that we seem to have started with similar mental process, starters, then bugs, then pikachu, meowth, team rocket. then I started going off of the pokerap, which I don't remember completely, then I went to the gym leaders teams, then pokemon in different special zones like safari zone

[@DanielSmith-lm2jl]

I’m more impressed you spell the names correctly 😭😭

[@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

[@ShadowWasntHere8433]

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

[@YGO_BERRY]

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

[@layachaz7318]

This is truly fun

[@oliverorchard6774]

Gen 5 pokedex is one I'm surprised people forget some in as even though it's so big, it is the only pokedex across the series that is perfectly ordered to when you encounter the pokemon in the games. Time was rough though, and you would've had it.

[@Intelligenzbestie]

This guy really knows his poke mans

[@princeapoopoo5787]

I was curious to see how well I'd do, because nowadays most of my Pokemon exposure is through art and watching various KZbin channels and Gen 1: 149/151 Gen 2: 97/100 Gen 3: 135/135 Gen 4: 103/107 Gen 5: 155/156 Gen 6: 68/72 Gen 7: 85/88 Gen 8: 96/96 Gen 9: 101/120 And honestly, I'm okay with this. With the exception gen 9, most of the Pokemon I missed were forgettable, like Sunflora. I never even played SV, so to see this score for those games is pretty impressive considering.
