[@ASMRaphael]

I have to say that Sarah's singing voice is bloomin' astounding!

[@raven_of_zoso455]

Yeah, she does have a set of lungs on her. No, but seriously, she has a great voice!

[@dungeonseeker3087]

Please never change Octy, I absolutely love your style of comedy and this one had me in tears, that last Pikachu/Jackie Chan monstrosity was incredible. Thanks for the vid

[@hjalfi]

Every single one of those cut-price Pokemon look like they've just realised that they're not the real one and the knowledge is devouring their souls from the inside.

[@alecj3454]

"Nostalgia -- the only thing keeping me going" -- That is my new life motto. Its so true. Bravo!

[@MichaelLaneMonkeywrench]

The "Pokemon Green" cover art triggered a hacking round of Covid laugh-coughing. Well played. Edit - shit got to Golden not againnnn

[@IanDarley]

'Slit slap' and 'Engulf' need to be a thing 😂

[@HolderOfLife]

Love to see you still dishing out the content.

[@themaestrosfolly]

“Slit slap!” I literally dropped my fricking iPad I laughed so hard!!!

[@nneeerrrd]

Ikr

[@zandorius]

me too lol

[@BRUXXUS]

I think my neighbors could hear me laughing at that!

[@TyphinHoofbun]

My first thought was Legend of Dragoon's "Demon's Gate". ...It's too late for me, save yourselves.

[@stekent3177]

I really enjoyed this one, the song was a nice surprise 😂 keep em coming

[@Xator]

I am just a simple spaniard: I see a new video from Octavius King, and automatically give a Like.

[@villehursti]

The Golden one's cover is golden. Amazing. Pure art.

[@viscountrainbows6452]

I wanna see it in the Guggenheim.

[@Chavhunterofcalne]

Eesh, those knock offs look terrible. Though the Jackie Chan one made me laugh out loud. Loved the pokemon song at the end, too. Forgot how clear you sound when you sing.

[@AikenDrum1715CE]

Your writing and your delivery makes me giggle. I can ask for no more.

[@maya60778]

Never disappointed when you upload. Enjoyed the song at the end!

[@Ospyro3em]

I've just discovered this channel and I'm loving it! Your dry humour had me doubled over laughing 🤣🤣🤣

[@SonicBoss1991]

She streams on twitch as well!

[@Blas4ublasphemy]

Living off borrowed time the clock ticks faster, This time they finally knock off Dic Dastardly and Muttley with his sick laughter

[@shia_labeouf]

I particularly enjoyed that, at 14:38, the sprite changes when the character gets in the frog suit thing but the lazy hackers clearly didn't bother changing out Little Nemo in that one so Sandshrew/Rhydon randomly turns into a little boy in a frog costume.

[@cassandralyris4918]

"Cameltoe slit slap" sounds like it's straight out of a Go Nagai manga. 🤣

[@RettMikhal]

I love how they were too lazy to replace the profile picture of Plucky Duck in the hud. That would take all of two seconds.

[@olafbuddenberg4787]

17:36 - LOL!!! Ahem. Yes, I am easily entertained. Oh, great song at the end! :D

[@Noisy_Snax]

How do you poke him onto a bus? You pikachu. No, wait. Shit.

[@sethwick8348]

Dick Dastardly punching the orange "blastoise" in the face killed me

[@FVvocals]

Said it before and will say it again….PLEASE GIVE THIS GIRL A TV SHOW……Awesome as always Sarah. Hope you’re well and staying safe

[@BenchyTests]

That was fun. The Pikachu at the end looked more like the Jigsaw doll than a Pikachu.

[@DoctorBastard]

Can guarantee that my father doesn't know what a Pikachu's called and would probably refer to it as: A yellow twatty thing.

[@soopafamicom]

OMG...was listening to the vid while playing a game...had to pause and click back to the vid when you were singing. Loved it.

[@kingedwin]

Imagine being a kid getting one of these games and enjoying it, because it's just a sprite hack of a good game. Then you try to explain it to your Pokemon-loving friends, who have no idea what you're talking about. "You know, Pikachu's bag that he uses to carry around his boxing glove?"

[@Real1Gaming]

You're quickly becoming one of my favorite video game channels. Also, as a Nintendo fan since the mid-late 90's, your commentary at 01:55 was just... Spot on. It's funny because it's absolutely true.

[@brianartillery]

I laughed out loud at the little vehicles on the title screen of the 'Pokemon Blue' - They are the competitors from the cartoon show, 'Wacky Races'.

[@GoreGazzim]

Your videos are so good. The quality of the script, the jokes, the topics , the editing are all spot on. Keep up the good work Octavius.

[@liamoconnor7423]

When you wanna play Pokémon Gold but the cartridge is just a Ditto having an existential crisis and transforms into Eevee

[@lShadowdark]

At least that Cleffairy can camuflage, that is something Pokemon didn't think of...

[@blackphoenix77]

Barve Boy Pocket Pokechu is nightmare fuel 😨

[@dykodesigns]

The “Pokemon” game based on the Tiny Toons still has it’s original enemy characters in it by the looks of it. Still the exact same purple critters…. Gotta value the effort of those bootleggers, the lazy basters😁.

[@mightyfilm]

You gotta love how they're not even committed to changing the entire IP to be Pokemon themed. They didn't bother changing any of the Wacky Races guys to Pokemon, and I'd bet changing the characters in Tiny Toons would just give you the same Furball, Plucky, and Dizzy choices. Eevee's clearly going to be fighting Tom. It's lazy. Even a standard fan based rom hack would change the other characters. I know this is all just a scam, but COMMIT! And why does Blastoise look like a bad Huckleberry Hound? They couldn't even be arsed to make a Pokemon look like a Pokemon.

[@CeeJayThe13th]

You gotta give them a little grace as a lot of them are probably created by enthusiastic amateurs. It's young people trying to learn to make their own stuff. I would probably have a few of these trash ass hacks out there myself if I would have had just a tiny bit more natural art talent because I was trying to do the same stuff myself. The real lazy bastards are the ones who probably stole the ROM hacks online and then packaged and sold them. It's like quadruple piracy or something.

[@strangulator42]

I've had one of the worst weeks of my life, but your video helped me feel normal for a little bit... you do good work lol! keep up the good work!

[@jonhu4127]

The song at the end made this video worth watching. Plus those are some bloody cute rats

[@MikeStavola]

Ngl, I want a physical copy of Golden, specifically so I can display it, and make people uncomfortable for going through my game collection.

[@skelkankaos]

that Eevee on the cartridge art reminded me of a homestar runner bit about knock-off character art needing a human nose lol

[@viscountrainbows6452]

Bootleg cartridges have those Direct To Flea Market quality that has surely bamboozled many an unwitting adult who would think Goku is in Pokemon, and destroyed the faith in humanity of many a child. Also I love the rat babies, they should definitely feature more often🥺🐀😻🐀

[@MathewHaswell]

Octy made a channel for rats - Octavius Rats - but it died in the water after the first - and only - video received many negative comments. The vid's comment-section is now disabled.

[@PositivePuppet]

Absolutely brilliant. Thoroughly entertaining, your work never disappoints and lovely to hear you sing again.

[@coyoteartist]

I don't even need a KZbin video to look at it, I have one sitting literally 2 feet to my right. But I will watch the video before staring at it.

[@TMS9918A]

Little Nemo could have actually been a great Pokemon hack: just replace nemo with a pokemon trainer, change the candy to pokeballs, and redraw the animal helpers into appropriate pokemon.

[@dannin1278]

Omg that give me a couple years line killed me

[@jasonjones7461]

Haha that Blastoise looks EXACTLY like the Hanna Barbera* (I think) cartoon dog "huckleberry hound" 😂

[@KeriSqueak]

8:50 Ah, finally I have some useful knowledge to contribute! The attack you're looking for is "Clam Slam!" :D Apparently that's the vaggy version of teabagging *shrug*

[@stuartbrownlee3108]

The world is a better place with your comedy genius in it. The way this world seems to be now, it badly needs it.

[@fusionspace175]

Oho, methinks the lady doth protest the Pokesex too much. (Sorry I had to after you mentioned it. Great vid, so funny! And what a singing voice, I love it.)

[@skeletorrobo]

A: Hey child, I got you Pokémon games for Christmas! B: Waaaaaaa-

[@Zeecarver]

DOn't kid yourself, that cover at the end was great! :D

[@joeyparkhill8751]

that Eevee bootleg was so lazily made that they couldn't be arsed to change the character's name from Jerry to Eevee! just look at the HUD at 10:19!!

[@TeraunceFoaloke]

That Golden game's face forward frame just reminds me of Red from that Godzilla: King of the Monsters Creepypasta game.

[@SilentAddle]

"Even your dad knows this is a pikachu" My dad's dead, he doesn't know shit anymore, lol.

[@frankowalker4662]

That was so funny. As a child of the 70's, I know nothing about Pokemon, But even I can tell there's something wrong with these games. LOL. BTW, Great song at the end. :)

[@theidealcopy_]

4:45 that blastoise looks like Homer Simpson and I can't unseeded it

[@DEMENTO01]

9:19 my body dysmorphia: "u look exactly like this"

[@autobotstarscream765]

"Look, a rat!" Pokémon in a nutshell. 😂

[@LordBarros]

I want Look A Rat on Spotify right now.

[@ravikxavier607]

That Sandshrew looks like the monster from The Host, i keep expecting him to snatch a kid and runaway

[@autobotstarscream765]

That's Hypno's job.

[@HaroldDuggart]

*Clefairy used Engulf. It was...something.*

[@BRUXXUS]

This is incredible. That sexy Pikachu was too much. haha

[@edrosa3485]

Have not smiled this much watching a KZbin video since one of your “adult “ famicon games...

[@greenhowie]

4:51 It's a cross between homer simpson and a slowpoke

[@thegothicswordsman839]

Greedy devs for sure... The sort of people who would have you take your pokemon to nurse joy and you'd get your charmeleon back minus a liver ;)

[@isocosahedron]

Well, I've seen plenty of terrifying drawings of Pokemon, but nothing could've prepared me for that cursed demonic Eevee. Guess now I know what creatue will drag my soul to hell.

[@JaxDagger]

This! the internet holds many a deranged drawing of anything and everything you love into something terribly worrying xD

[@tekmate]

Loved the video made me laugh at a time I really needed it. Song at the end was great.

[@riskybitness]

I was like 16 or 17 when the pokémon cartoon premiered. I was never super into it, but now my 6 year old is a pokémon fanatic so I play Pokémon Go with him. It's good for bonding and it never hurts to get a little exercise.

[@donnyjepp]

You're right about the bonding...I too was in my teens when Pokémon came out, but my nephew's were well into it so I learned to play when babysitting them...They loved how their uncle could rhyme all the Pokémon off..Happy days 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@walcodebruyn2135]

Yayy a long Octavius video Just what i needed, thanks I'm so excited to watch it!

[@MrMeaty]

“Look a rat” kind of works for Pokémon . Who’s that Pokémon? A Rat!

[@mcdura]

that song at the end POG

[@jazzygeofferz]

That "Blastoise" looked like Huckleberry Hound is having a bad day. Until you said it waas Wacky Races I thought it might have been a Yogi's Treasure Hunt game

[@Agamemnon2]

Oh, what have they done to Little Nemo. That's one of the best looking NES games you really don't see mentioned very often these days.

[@EonEsper-Kriz]

That Sandshrew one was actually Little Nemo the Dreammaster, lol.

[@DarDarBinks1986]

When I was a kid, I was crazy about Pokémon. I probably have hundreds of hours logged in Red/Blue alone. I started with Bulbasaur. By the end of the game, I had Venusaur, Mewtwo, Gyarados, and the legendary birds, all level 100. Thank the Missing No. glitch for that; I'd use that to clone hundreds of Rare Candies and Master Balls, then feed my Pokémon those Rare Candies to level them up. The Elite Four? Glassed them. Gary? One-shotted all his Pokémon. Those rats are so cute!

[@elylara8335]

Just found this channel like a week ago...funny as all hell.

[@oscarcamey8]

I remember as a kid there was a toys r us near me, but there was a little shop next to it called hello kitty, and they would sell pokemon cards. But one day, Yu-Gi-Oh came out. I remember going to the shop that day to buy pokemon cards, then I see a bunch of kids with Yu-Gi-Oh cards, specifically Yugi's starter deck. They would sell packs too. But I was like what's going on, I wanted Yu-Gi-Oh cards instead, but my dad said I came for pokemon cards so I ended getting pokemon packs haha

[@oliverjoel5870]

Was hoping for a cameo from that full version of pokemon yellow that was ported to NES lol. Great video

[@mist1660]

Sainsbury's Finest! I too enjoy the finest range in the various supermarches! 😂🤜🏽 Aldi's Finest or an "Aldi Special" is the current fave.

[@adamdenby1282]

10.25 awww it's pennywise in Pokemon and I don't want my boat back

[@jameswalker4489]

me: mum, i want pokemon! mum: we got pokemon at home pokemon at home:

[@StefanEdek]

The ending song is awesome!

[@UpLateGeek]

Thanks, after the day I had at work, I needed a laugh! Although I might not think it was so funny after I find out what tonight's dreams have in store for me.

[@CannaCJ]

Fake Evee on the cart looks like an even creepier Baby Yoda, which was apparently possible.

[@5roundsrapid263]

I just thought the same exact thing!

[@Dr.Quarex]

I had to pause to laugh when Golden made an appearance

[@benjamintan2733]

Damn, I didn't know these bootleg pokemon were so bad. I know the exist, but never thought they are literally begging for anyone to end their existence. I feel sorry for them... Nice, that ending song really hits the spot.

[@atheisthumanist1964]

Not sure how I hadn't found the channel until recently. Definitely subd!

[@duckyvirus]

entertaining as always. the tune was.... interesting rofl. keep it up!

[@joeyparkhill8751]

6:11 Poor Crappy Bastardized Blastoise :(

[@Retromicky82]

And this is where game freak makes a thicc pokemon . And pikachu with his moobs 😆

[@girloninternet1188]

"Crappy Blastoise" is just Slowbro.

[@JonGallon]

7:54 "Weird SUBSET of Furries that wants to shag a Pokémon"... Subset... *Laughs in Incineroar*

[@JustMe-iw3ev]

18:45 Dear lord, that Pikachu seems like he's channeling Jigsaw's puppet, Billy, from the Saw movies.

[@Inignot12]

I love the song at the end, you've got a great singing voice

[@nerdiestmurdoch887]

Sees new Octavius video.. clicks immediately… never disappointed 😁

[@jonny_codphilo7809]

i remember learning the word engulf when playing secret of manna that special attack was super effective on my funny bone

[@nukedoom]

The "Blastoise" being punched really got me hahahaha Edit: Ohhh F**k, I got to pokemon green hahahaha

[@AikenDrum1715CE]

Pokemon Golden; Grogu Hero Liver Failure.

[@OldNick999-real1]

If Pikachu is supposed to be drunk, they could have just gone with Conker. Been too long since we had a Conker game. I’d take one from hackers.

[@15-Peter-20]

Love you Octav1us x

[@chrisdanks6447]

Pmsl the Slag brothers and Dick Dastardly in his plane on the title screen

[@TheTimPilot]

One's yellow and the rest just poke-a-mom.....I dunno.
