[@michabaron4129]

hard disagree with Beldum. Not only does it represent the design of the pokemon [and it got points deducted for the design itself] it also gets the full pokemon into frame and also has some nice shading and detail. Makes you recognize it as a some sort of inorganic material, perhaps metallic in nature. I think that's a very succesful sprite actually. fun list tho E: portraying Cloyster's face from the back is a logistical nightmare. I also don't feel like it's a fair deduction. But it also shines light on different criteria we apply to our assesments. I enjoy how skillfuly detailed Cloyster is given the very limited canvas it has to be displayed. Fantastic use of space and linework. I also appreciate how shiny and vibrant electrodes manages to be, glossy almost. I feel it displays much more skill to convey that than, for example, Espeon seems to represent. I love Espeon but the sprite is flat, two-tone and static. Pokemon itself gives you much more creative space to express it than the design of Electrode yet it's the latter whose sprite catches my attention

First of all, you had me at the title. Then the quality blew me away but what truly sold me was your compelling argument, you should have a bond with your partner.

[@derekgunnels4856]

"Great sprite. He's holding a bone"

[@Super_Top_Secret_Area]

Mr. Cool, the reason why some Gen 3 sprites may look underwhelming is because they were recycled from Gen 2 and recolored. Those sprites used to be much smaller and thus not as detailed.

[@timmaia5082]

That's a fair statement, but many of the F tiers were there despite being gen 3 Pokemon, such as Kyogre and the whales. Meanwhile some of the recycled gen 2 sprites, such as Geodude and Bayleef, were already quality work and as such still landed highly even without that much detail shown.

[@Super_Top_Secret_Area]

@@timmaia5082 True. Pokémon with unusual body shapes generally didn't get a fair treatment.

[@Omniczech]

"I'll be there soon honey, just gotta watch 90 minutes of a guy ranking pokemon by the quality of their backshots"

[@Flamelance_Accendo]

@3:05 Aeordactyl's arms are shifted downward instead of upward. So rather than it being cut off, you can tell its still there by looking at part of his shoulder. If its wings were upward, its entire face would be covered and it would definitely shift his tier down lol

[@porpygon2]

[@dakoriolf]

Truly excellent work, Mr. Cool. Cannot wait for the Gen 4 back sprite tier list which I am certain you are working on at this moment

[@tomatogenesis]

I know it's unlikely, but I'd appreciate if you made a follow up with Leaf Green and Fire Red backsprites in the form of a Short. Not all of them were changed from Ruby and Sapphire (especially since Teddiursa aside only Kanto mons received new sprites) but most of them do outshine their previous ones, sometimes to the point of outright incinerating and change your perspective of them, just look at Gyarados' or Butterfree's for instance!

[@XxbelligerentxX]

As much as I can appreciate a back or two as much as the next guy, It would be really nice if we could get a video actually revealing the faces of all these beautiful backs! As a face enjoyer I believe we all would like to know what these fine fellows like from the front.

[@hard2flatter516]

I would like to see a video of Jim showing back sprites to his grandmother and various children as these are the most important criteria established for quality. Thank you.

This is the stupidest video you've ever done Jim, it is instantly my new favorite

[@MishKoz]

Fun fact: a lot of the gen 3 back sprites are just redraws from gen 2. Also, a few Pokemon got completely redone back sprites in Firered/Leafgreen, such as Alakazam.

[@ArcRavine2605]

Folks He's entering his Mr1upz Era. Can't wait for the Gen 3 Berry Sprite Tierlist. Where would you rank Chople Berry?

[@kevinrianfromgarou]

jimothy ranking hands for 1 and a half hour

[@ro-ma-]

Now this is the content we’ve been waiting for

[@woutervanham8246]

I am so glad to know I'm not the only one to think about this

[@razorsharp5643]

I love Barboach's back sprite. He's so energetic and jolly, it makes me happy to look at. Meanwhile, Wailord's back sprite in Gen 4 is just a blue disc.

[@Cheeseomlett1234]

I eagerly await Jims Grandmother's gen 3 sprite first impressions video

[@FrogInShorts]

Alternative title: how to properly pronounce every pokemon name from gens 1-3

[@mighark54]

How can I trust someone who can't recognize a Sealeo from the back?

[@vreeze33]

For spinarak and ariados I like that the markings on the back look like they're looking at you. The design is very insect. What you mistook for wailmer was clearly a sleeping snorlax.

[@o-poppoo5117]

Cubone looks like he is screaming at the world that he will avenge his mother

[@boop53]

37:12 furret ranking here, for those interested.

[@driftingbreath]

Finally. This is a format where Corsola may truly shine. I wish her great success.

[@joshuapineda8708]

In defense of some mons like Aerodactyl and anyone else who got most of their body cut off, let us remember that the Gameboy’s screen was pretty small and had to be taken into account for the sake of perspective

[@ihsaningersoll9232]

I don’t think looking at these sprites in a vacuum is exactly fair. The only time you’re seeing the back sprite first is if you’re playing someone else’s save or maybe playing randbats and there’s a mon you’ve never seen. Otherwise, you always see the front sprite before being presented with the back sprite

[@brendanhulla]

The entire point of the video is to rank the back sprites of these pokemon how is it unfair to look at these in a vacuum

[@hector_here9790]

As a kid I always HATED when my super epic looking from the front-sprite Pokémon looked so silly like Donphan and Kyogre... I also always thought Aggron's little shoulder spike was a nubby arm lol

[@foreversevenfold1666]

Gotta be the most insane Jimothy vid of all time.

[@DelanHaar6]

Can't wait for the follow-up where Grandma Jimothy ranks every back sprite from Gen 3.

[@nosfrattirek5690]

I didn't recognize the Alakazam sprite at first despite using it quite often in FR/LG so I looked it up, and it turns out there are many sprites that have been changed in FR/LG (even Emerald has a couple of unique ones IIRC, so a few Pokémon have three different gen 3 backsprites). Most of them are just slight alterations in position or color but Alakazam for instance looks COMPLETELY different. So yeah, there's a bunch missing but I usually can't be bothered making a tier list with more than like 20 items so kudos for taking the time to go through this. And yes I'm talking about the back sprites, I know virtually every gen 1 Pokémon looks different from the front in FR/LG.

[@mochaman29]

Aggrons sprite looks good but it took me forever to see that the spike on his shoulder is a spike and not his actual arm. I thought it was so weird how his arm was so small in his back sprite for the longest time.

[@Bonecrusher1022]

They didn't put all of Exeggcute's eggs in one basket which gets my respect

[@Smellbo]

This is insane. Let's give all these little fellows a *Hand* for their efforts.

[@perka.mp4]

Petition to have Jimothy’s Grandmother feature in a video in the future

[@hellzbasket7653]

This is the content i never knew i needed until it arrived

[@weterpete]

55:22 these are the kind of epic ki-adi-mundi references that we come to this channel for

[@hps362]

I'm happy Piloswine was deemed so atrocious it made Jim fathom an F Tier. I agree with that sentiment. They do not do my boy justice. He is Camel Rock.

[@AxecutionerCh]

Banger video once again

[@YNOBLITZ]

I can’t even figure out of Jimothy actually knows he’s this funny or he’s just unironically funny.

[@algar6616]

2:17 oh don’t hold buddy to the physical/special split, I’m feeling an urge to throw that boy in gen 4 ou w a scarf

[@Xurikk]

I love Banette and was so ready for your Banette rant

[@profoundproductionss]

I hope to see jimothy cool's back sprite one day...

[@MrChickenspit]

I haven't watched the full video yet and right within the first 2 mins, I agree with your choices and thoughts on your ranking.. underrated video. This guy gets it. I wish I could've done this video but you def know whats up
