No, clavel should 110% get quaquavel. This is because during operation starfall, after beating giacomo, Clive appears and giacomo makes a comment about his hair saying “you get a Quaxwell to style that up for ya?” It would be so funny to find out he had the Quaxly line and did get his Quaxwell to style his hair for him.

[@devashishtripathi3560]

I love all these changes, however I personally think Miriam's team is already medical themed. Paraphrasing Bulbapedia All of Miriam's Pokémon refer to specific types of medicine and healing; Hypno refers to hypnotherapy and sleeping well, Pincurchin represents acupuncture and possibly shock therapy, Sawsbuck represents aromatherapy and medicinal herbs, Glalie refers to cryotherapy and possibly a cold compress, such as an ice pack, while Eelektross most likely refers to either a defibrillator or leeching, and Toxapex references acupuncture once again, as well as the use of venom in medicine.

[@MysteryMusic512]

Really cool list, Zac. Most of these are really good changes. I've always thought Brassius should've had Bramblin, and Pangoro is absolutely perfect for Eri (best Team Star boss). If there is one thing I would've done differently, I would've given Hassel Garchomp as his new psuedo-legendary, since he does use a Gible in his art classes.

[@KuroBlitz]

Geeta (My Version) - Palafin, Glimmora, Espathra, Ceruledge, Arboliva and Kingambit. Nemona (My Version) - Tauros, Falinks, Gallade, Annihilape, Quaquaval, Pawmot. Steel Golurk, Flying Dudunsparce and Dragon Lapras are interesting picks, I love it. Rika deserves a Ground Tera from a Mon of the Mineral Egg Group IMO - Shedinja. Jacq's original team reflects biology too: Arcanine evolves via Fire Stone (dog breeds). Mudsdale (mules = horse x donkey), Slowbro is symbiosis while Farigiraf is parasytic. Lurantis is a fake bug. Swalot is living sludge who changes colours upon evolving.

[@Eric-gp3hi]

Nice team changes for Paldea. They really fit the gym leaders, elite four and champion. I would like to see you do new teams for all of the player characters and do what if scenarios such as What if Paul never released Chimchar and What if Msty continued traveling with Ash.

While the teams presented are pretty good (aside from the starters for gym leaders), I noticed that quite a few of the Pokémon chosen (such as Herdier, Leavanny, Comfey and Exeggutor) aren’t currently available in SV.

[@eljordinio7647]

Your team for Geeta is straight up perfect. Not only did it need more gen 9 representation but Kingambit definitely needed to be her ace. It doesn't just look the part but it's ability could seriously come in clutch if used last. Meanwhile Glimmora's DEFINITELY better off as her lead Pokemon to set up toxic spikes

[@UnwantedGhost1]

And imagine if the devs gave her Kingambit tera type that's unexpected for most players to throw them off guard with the type matchup like psychic?

[@giboit.]

The champion signature pokemon is always the last pokemon that is send out because it's the pokemon that represents them. Their last resort as the ace of their teams. This is nothing new. Glimmora's ability just happens to be one that would work better at the beginning of the battle but it still works if Glimmora's type forces you to switch pokemon. Which I'm pretty sure was the intention given how intentionally rare and late game Glimmora was made to be and how it could easily be confused with a grass type, a psychic type or even a dark type. Basically, the intention was for players to not be sure about its type when seeing it for the first time, forcing them to switch pokemon and that way activate the ability.

One thing I'd like to add is that Katy should DEFINETLY have Fidough or Dachsbun. The bread dogs don't belong to the baker?? And Dachsbuns ability would make it immune to fire types! Of course, that would work better if the gym levels scaled, but you see my idea, right? Also, I'd switch the starter choices for Nemona and Clavell, but that's just me! I like the gym changes the most.

[@MarcusMapua]

Giacomo's Pawniard is technically his Ace as in the postgame it evolves into Kingambit as Giacomo's Last Pokemon; i.e his Ace. Plus Post-Mela has Armarouge as her Ace considering her Charcadet evolution training & maybe could be Charlos evolved. Most of Geeta's Paldea Pokemon besides Glimmora belong to other significant paldea trainers as either part of their roster or are their aces: Espathra & Tulip, Veluza & Kofu, and Giacomo's Pawniard now Kingambit. So if anything Glimmora, Gogoat, & Avalugg are practically her own (A lot of people were happy that they brought back Gogoat to the games after so long, in which I guess that is why they have Geeta's Gogoat)

[@LordKraken3]

Not sure if you know this, but a couple of the replacement Pokemon you chose aren't in SV. (Specifically Herdier, Ariados, Pangoro, Mienshao, Audino, Comfey, Cofagrigus, Leavanny, Alcremie, Exeggutor, Weezing, Barbaracle, Drampa, Flygon, Golurk and Lapras)

[@Condor-gb1xp]

I mean if the list is that long, it’s probably intentional

[@ryanaing5302]

I think it doesn't matter if they weren't in the games. It's a matter of treating this as if every Pokemon is available to all Trainers in the context of outside of the games.

It always bothered me how Nemona has a Midday lycanroc instead of a Dusk form since she seems like the kind of person that would know how to get one and how good it is. I like your Larry Revamp team although I'd make his lead TalonFlame since him being a Flying type in the E4 was a psych moment.

[@jerelgayle3625]

If you look at all the gym leaders teams up to this point you notice there’s a lot of overlap in the Pokémon they use.

[@Missingno_Miner]

Not a fan of that Salvatore team, just because he's the language teacher doesn't mean he should only have regional variants, and it would make more sense to give him pokemon from many different regions rather than just three. To be fair, the big issue is the same issue I have with his canon team. There's honestly no reason for him to not have Pawmot, his subplot revolves around that quiet Pawmi, so him evolving and including it on his team makes sense. Making it his ace(and electric tera type) could make him a legitimate threat: As I understand it, Double Shock doesn't get rid of a terastalized pokemon's type, although I haven't really used Pawmot to test that out. I also don't think Gholdengo should be given to any trainers. It's a special pokemon, and I would argue that its existence should be kept a secret to preserve the mystery that gamefreak so carefully set up. With Ryme, Sableye seems like a much better option, showing her connection to Tyme as well as more subtly nodding towards the idea of wealth due to Sableye's connection to gems. With Nemona, you could honestly give her anything else, but I'd personally give her back Lycanroc, but either make it a Dusk Lycanroc(which would be a nice little nod to Penny's joke about Nemona's ability being Own Tempo), or make the form she uses dependent either on version or the time of day she's fought.

[@ryanaing5302]

What about giving Gholdengo to Geeta? She seems like the high-class rich person type to me, given her position as chairwoman of the league and the academy, and would be the type to own a business of some sorts. Plus, she’s really got this mysterious aura around her that I can’t put my finger on it.

[@Missingno_Miner]

@@ryanaing5302 You're missing the point: It's a special pokemon, and its existence should be kept a secret to avoid spoiling the mystery surrounding Gimmighoul. It's not about the character that has it, but rather the pokemon itself.

Hypno for Hypno Therapy; Eelektross for Electro-convulsive treatment/ defibrillators or Blood letting; Sawsbuck for Herbal Remedies; Pincurchin for Acupuncture or the other electrical treatments; Glalie for Cryo-therapy or cold compresses/ icing wounds and Toxapex for the use of toxins in medicines like anti-venoms/ anticoagulants or acupuncture like Pincurchin

[@barrybend7189]

I would dispute your pick for the school nurse team. Her team is perfect as they are common fears of nurse's offices. It's funnier that the nurse is a poison specialist as opposed to the Joys. Hassel should have a Dragonite due to being a dragon user without an edge( yes even Iris has a bit of an edge). It fits as he should be approachable and it's funny how Dragonite is the easiest dragon to draw for Pokemon.

[@veenadayma6514]

Is Glimmora actually worthy of an ace? IMO, it IS. In OU, it's usage is higher than most pseudolegendaries (except Dragonite and Dragapult) and even though Kingambit's usage is higher, I'm pretty sure it will be overall lower than Glimmora if we consider unterrastralised forms. Plus, it's not just that the ace of a Champion has to be sent last. Let us not forget that N immediately led with his strongest Pokémon in Team Plasma Castle. Geeta can do the same and that'd do with me. Also, Geeta's design makes me think that she was based on a Glimmora, perhaps even more than shiny Kingambit. Finally, given how often Geeta says how Paldea holds quite the significance for her, and given that Glimmora's petals being one of the key ingredients of TM for Tera Blast (going by the Dex entry), which is the phenomenon representing her region, it makes sense why her ace is a Glimmora.

[@ryanaing5302]

Despite all the controversy surrounding Geeta, I still kind of like her, or at least tolerate her for what she is. Same goes for Diantha, they just need a little more adjustments and fixes to their teams and narrative. Or maybe I’m just getting tired from the likes of Cynthia this, and Cynthia that. I guess I’m drawn towards less approved and less popular characters of Pokemon these days. I’m just looking things outside the box and thought up some headcanons and ideas that could be used in a fanfiction retelling of sorts that could be engaging.

I disagree with Poppy's team. It's fine as is, and Tinkaton as her main is just perfect. For Geeta, it's already a massive step up, though I feel maybe she should have Gholdengo instead of Garganacl since some Champions have that one rare, hard-to-get Pokémon on their team. And depending on the version, she'll have either Armarouge or Ceruledge, to keep things a little fun.

[@6Kryptofire]

Palafin - A Hero Pokemon fits the champion Maushold (Family of 3) - Using a rare form of a pokemon Rabsca - Using the new move Revival Blessing to bring back a defeated Pokemon; as well as for Light Screen; Reflect; ect.

I personally think that Meowscarada is the starter that fits Clavell the best - the Paldea starters represent the triple threats (singing, acting and dancing) and since he uses his alter ego Clive to get closer to Team Star I don’t think it’s a stretch to assume he’d gravitate towards the acting one of the three. Plus Meowscarada kinda looks like it has a calm and logical demeanour like Clavell himself.

I also think that nemona should still have the starter weak to you, however she has the tera type good agiast for starter (for example skeledirge would have grass type tera since you chose quaxly, and would have tera blast). This would be such a surprise at the end if she uses tera electric pawmot until the champion battle Also for champion battle, since cyclizar is already on her and fits it well (especially since it also represents for koria/mirai don, she should get Lokix, which I see her having over goodra (plus palafin is already sorta like a qsuedo so it's fine) Still Great New Teams and I hope this series continues somehow (Maybe in, idk, collosseum and XD?)

I made 3 teams for Nemona (depending on which starter she chooses) If she chose Sprigatito Meowsacrada, Pawmot, Palafin, Cyclazar, Garganacal, Ceruledge in S or Armarouge in V If she chose Fuecoco Skelidurge, Pawmot, Cyclazar, Garganacal, Palafin, Arboliva If she chose Quaxly Quaquaval, Pawmot, Arboliva, Cyclazar, Garganacal, Ceruledge in S or Armarouge in V

[@Amelia4111]

There is no vowel between the C and the L in Garganacl! The first A in Cyclizar is supposed to be an I! It's Skeledirge, NOT Skelidurge!

[@mccuefam1452]

If you make a scarlet and violet anime with Ash, then heres what i think the gym leaders team would be: Katie: Ursaring, Nymble, Combee Brassius: Florigato, Sudowoodo, Steenee Iono: Magneton, Mismagius, Bellibolt Kofu: Veluza, Crawdaunt, Crabominable Larry: Staraptor, dudunsparce, Oinkologne Ryme: Mimikyu, Banette, Skeledirge, Toxtricity Tulip: Gardevoir, Gothitelle, Florges Grusha: Abomasnow, (since its a hail summoner and hail is beneficial for the ice type) Frosmoth, Cetitan, Altaria

[@Amelia4111]

There is no O in Brassius! There should be 3 L's in Bellibolt! Slowking is NOT one of Larry's Pokemon! It's Gardevoir, NOT Guardivoir (there is no U in the name, and the first I is supposed to be an E)! There should be only one T in Frosmoth! And the second E in Cetitan is supposed to be an A!

@@Amelia4111 okay. Also, now that it is actually out, my comment is also outdated. Sorry if you are ticked off.

[@mccuefam1452]

Also fixed it

[@CountingBackwardsFrom10]

My ideal Geeta team: -Palafin -Glimmora -Armarouge/Ceruledge (Depends on which version you play) -Baxcalibur -Rabsca -Kingambit

[@RodimusMinor1987]

I am one of the very few people who love Meowscarada, I seriously don't get the hate, also Camerupt isn't lame it has a special place in my heart as Numel was my first ever shiny, Most of these pokémon aren't even in Paldea Zac so they won't work, I was expecting you to change them with pokémon from Paldean, Geeta definitely should have started with Glimmora definitely so it can set up toxic spikes, then if she had a pokémon set up trick room just before she sends out Kingambit then that would be devastating, imagine if she sent out Espartha second to last set up trick room and then in comes Kingambit with its Supreme Overlord plus 5 in attack and special attack, it will do major damage, also give it the ghost tera type

@JesterPaws I think it's a cool a magical cat,

[@RodimusMinor1987]

@JesterPaws Mine is Torterra

[@RodimusMinor1987]

@JesterPaws I love All the Grass Starters except the Meganium line

[@AuraStrikeAce]

I love Meowscarada too

[@AuraStrikeAce]

@@matchapaws8193 Meowscarada and Cinderace are two of my favorite Starters. I'm not a fan of Incineroar, though.

[@wyattmaldonado-zu5ks]

With clavell having fuecocoa and nemona having moewscarada, I guess all that left for the protagonist is quaxly.

[@yaboirealm]

When he said Larry he became the Smash Bros announcer

[@thecupheadgamer9544]

Mistake tulip florges has the ghost Tera icon

[@Amelia4111]

That was NOT the Ghost tera icon, that was the Pscychic tera icon!

[@shoboy1560]

I always thought that as the history teacher Raifort should've had an Armarouge

[@ryomahoffman6803]

I don’t think Katie should replace nymble with combee, but instead literally just add combee to her team, and instead of teddiursa(which never made any sense to me,) give her a fidough with a bug terrestrial type, for obvious reasons. I think even though she’s technically the first gym she is just way too freaking easy. Edit: yeah, after watching the video, there are definitely some obvious ones here and it’s pretty weird that they didn’t make these obvious connections. Brassius definitely should’ve had a bramblin. Iono definitely should’ve had a magnemite or a magneton, and I feel like she should’ve had a fairy type as her terrestrial pokémon, maybe mawile cuz of the teeth? Kofu definitely should’ve had a tatsugiri, or dondozo, or both. Gholdengo definitely fits Ryme very well. And Poppy not having orthworm honestly surprised me.

[@oldscoolgaming6700]

Hey Zac! What how would you rank my team? Trevenant Gengar Trevenant Hisuian Zoroark Mimikyu Froslass Yes, I’m a Ghost Type Trainer.

[@Icewolf_Plays]

Is this using Pokémon found in Paldea or in general as Mienshao can't be found in Paldea, and personally I would have given Dendra Pawmot as that adds more diversity to the team.

[@kyodaimegaz]

Hello Zac, I like how you made some changes on the Pokemon Team of these new characters. And since you created this before the release of Gen 9 DLC, it seems that you haven't covered the remaining characters on it. Can we request you to make a Part 2 of this video covering the characters in both Teal Mask and Indigo Disk, since there were a lot of new characters introduced from it. I hope this comment reach you and I assure you that this will be a great content for your "New Pokemon Team" series. Have a great day!!!

[@Jips907]

Brooooo. Friggin glad someone actually did this

[@sak471997]

I so wish that they had given all of the important trainers there own pokéball, like they did for Team Star. I mean for pete's sake Clavell literally have Premier Balls hanging on his jacket but uses normal ones.

[@michaelgunnels9694]

I thought Eris team was already good and pretty challenging as it can one or two shot you

[@thiffio9134]

Zack reading: Psychic Tera Florges Zack editing: Ghost Tera Florges

[@MoussyDonuts]

@lumiosetrainerZac how did you get background less versions of the vikworks art

[@come7316]

Great video as always !!! Not so fond of your Nemona team tho... Quaquaval fits better her imo, with all of the energy, excitement and all (other than the fact that if Clavel gets Skeledirge who's perfect for him it means Nemona has to have Quaquaval) and maybe either Lokix or the other version evolution of Charcadet, to cover some type in replacement of Palafin.. I don't really think it matches Nemona that much, and I still "imagine" it in games and I don't really see a NPC using a move to withdraw a Pokemon to change his form !

[@pokehunterhd]

Nah, dendra should keep both the blaze and aqua breeds of tauros instead of gaining a quaquaval, I like that you can't tell which tauros she'll send out when the instant switch option comes up, since they don't specify which form it is, I mean, their weaknesses aren't that different, but all of her pokemon (including the ones you gave her) are all already weak to flying, so not that much of a difference.
