Pokemon sure is fun, huh? Too bad there aren't any Shiny Pokemon here. Maybe next time! Is this just me optimizing tags? Maybe! So how about Pokemon challenges huh?

What about Ghetsis’ and rose’s themes. They have words in them lol

[@Newsteevie]

Oh, yeah! I forgot about those, haha!

[@Ogerpwned]

I love dennis

[@fanofluxray]

D E E E E N N I S .

[@gavinjohnson5902]

Just go full animal crossing

[@taimunozhan]

I still can't believe that out of all epic world-in-the-stake battles we've got in the last games (like Ultra Necrozma in USUM, Giratina in PLA and even Max Eternatus in SwSh) the one that got the 'Sephiroth' treatment with ominous lyrics in Latin was the one against Rose right before the legendary.

[@NagKai_G]

Another fun fact about Pokémon masters EX's VA is that the characters will also say a special line when getting selected into a team with other specific characters. For example, N will recognise any of the BW and BW2 protags, aswell as Ghetsis!

[@HerooftheWild]

Kinda like when you put Red and Ethan on a team together

[@General_C]

If memory serves, Volo gets a bit on edge whenever Rei or Akari are present.

[@BrokenSoulConfession]

Yep, it's the little touch of detail that just makes you smile.

[@a-jayleblanc359]

I feel like they could just do what Zelda does, only voice acting during cutscenes and when you just quickly talk to someone there is no voice acting besides maybe a few words

[@TheHylianDawg]

I mean, they did add the cutscenes and even animated the characters speaking… Maybe they went like “Oh screw it, we’ll add it on the next game surely!”

[@TheRealMaruki]

Especially the animated cutscenes in Scarlet and Violet. They feel empty without voicing (although the music always slaps).

[@elicenyne]

that's also what the Persona series does soooo

[@L.et..motif..]

Imagine if it’s in legend ZA

[@stayhumble-.-]

big boi grew up past shorts! yippee!

[@Wooperbro]

But there so comfortable and stylish

[@user-AADZ]

I mean when I tell you about their other long form videos in the past:

[@Newsteevie]

Take a melatonin for each time I say "voice"

[@Embrusp]

I’ve already took 2 so no more for me I already take 6 pills per day in total

[@ThatADHDFlygon]

I mean I take one every night because I can't sleep

[@Josh-qt5zi]

When I think of Flanderization in pokemon master , I always think of Dawn she quite literally one to one her anime counterpart but used different pokemon

[@Jelly_shy_guy_man]

Question what’s Pokémon master ex? With the spaces and add a S too master

[@Jelly_shy_guy_man]

No

[@Ism_Goose]

"What's up Pikachu?" "Piikaaaa!" "my home address is-"

[@eye_cancer]

😭

[@beheeyemite]

its odd how a pair of DS games seem to have the most mainline examples of voice acting. roxies singing, the village bridge song, elesas gym, colress and ghetsis... they all feel so stylish!

[@ThePorygonBoi]

A couple of things that I’d like to point out is in Pokémon Snap they used the Japanese anime voice for Porygon, even though it was given an English voice for a “Who’s That Pokémon” segment. And in Poképark Wii, Porygon-Z had to have a voice made exclusively for that game, as it had not appeared in the anime. That’s two members of the Porygon line with three voices between them, and we still don’t have an anime-style voice for Porygon2!

[@EclipseonPMD]

Roxie moment! She's my favorite gym leader, and not only because she's capable of human speech. She's so awesome!

[@dekumidoriya2928]

Ikue Otani really has an eye for getting long time contracts, she literally voices two main characters in the two longest going piece of fiction right now I dunno how much they pay her, but between Pilachu and Tony Tony Chopper from One Piece, she guaranteed to still have work by 2050 at least

[@33pandagamer]

Well, unless the decide to just exclusively reuse voice clips.

[@unchangedimage1603]

“Your home address is…” made me openly chuckle out loud. High quality content!

[@andreim.g.9299]

Give me what I neeeeeed- And that is full on voice acting in mainline, I'm *begging* you GameFreak. Masters gives so much personality to everyone by doing this. By the way, really like the longer form! Keep up the good work.

[@Ashymations]

Pokémon needs to bring in voice acting. The amount of times I've just listened through a bunch of Masters EX voice line vids to hear the different ways characters speak is insane. Not only that but the singing trainers like Piers and Ryme NEED their voices.

[@maldivesthegamer9774]

I can spend hours listening to their voice line and their interactions when some of them are on the same team like when blue and leaf are on your team blue will say"I sorry leaf but I alone is enough" or something along those line

[@luziaguerralatelevision2670]

Colress' music is also voice acted. There are intervals where you can hear in the background "one, two, three" ;D

[@user-lq8ll8kl4z]

There is no way you missed the village bridge man. That man had a full on vocal performance, and is probably the best voice acting we've gotten.

[@fanofluxray]

Newsteevie's ✨️gIvE mE WhAt i nEEEEEED✨️ honestly got me rolling on the floor

[@Rackals]

i mumble roxie's gym voice line to myself all the time... P-O-K-E-M-ON---POKEMON! Also, gen 5 has a beatboxing man in village bridge which im pretty sure is a real voice (there's also a singing man at that location, though its not human)

[@maneruloquendero]

12:36 for a moment I thought Meowth was going to say "this show is brought to you by deez nuts"

[@Rockglory]

11:06 the fade in to that old computer game, the memories I had playing that omg. Also my profile pic is from puzzle league, neat

[@Dialindenial]

There’s also that one song in b/w2 at the bridge town where you can build up the instrumentals, with some vocals also being added

[@dralx2042]

The games actually hint that Penny's from Galar, so her being British makes sense

[@e-lrd6904]

they don't just hint, they SAY IT OUTRIGHT at one point the former director literally says that he had "them [the big boss of team star, aka penny] return home to the Galar region."

[@vvolfaadala7634]

One beautiful thing that cane out of masters ex giving characters more personality though the way they talk is making blue mispronounce "bonjour"

[@ABoyNamedCharlotte]

whoa, pikachu really has that many unique sounds in yellow? I've never played it but weirdly this makes me want to take a look.

[@Trans4Hire]

I'd take voice acting just during cutscenes, that way it's not so damn awkward watching them flap their lips in silence after I'm already done reading the text

[@justinn8541]

When a previous generations has more voice acting than the modern games

[@SmellyFerret146]

Wow I Didn't Even Realise The Video Only Just Came Out! Nice!

[@TheHylianDawg]

I didn’t expect the video to turn into a horror movie at that ending there seesh

[@thesamri4825]

If im not mistaken the poison leader form gen 5 had voice acting for her song

[@DatCartoonistGuy]

Hey, Erica Mendez only voiced Pac-Man in the video game! In the show, he was voiced by Erin Matthews.

[@delilu]

Yay more longform videos! It's very cool to hear you talk about stuff with more time. Also an interesting topic

[@williamplayz_yt6973]

I swear there's more and more similarities between Pokémon and The Legend of Zelda with every video I watch on either of the two topics

[@apoole54]

Shout out to everyone who is 100% completed Pokémon Playhouse. It was the first ever a Pokémon game I played.

[@giboit.]

Another thing to consider is that pokemon games allow you to choose your name. And that helps with inmersion a lot. And all the characters refer to you by that name . But they wouldn't be able to use the name you choose in a voice acted game.

[@Tonnex]

Waint, did not also Meowth talk in pokemon masters? When you pic James as one of your favorite he can show up together with Meowth.

[@_f4y3_]

Love the long videos! 💕

[@Even_littlerB]

Also male team skull grunts would make a sound when you encounter them (I couldn’t make it out but it kinda sounds like they’re saying Guzma)

[@FIGSAMA]

I love your videos soo much please make more shorts and long form videos too man❤

[@turtlelongingforchaos9055]

Okay that girl in Pokémon camp was made from like unity store assets and i recognized that violently bc her hair and animations at least are also ribaru's in yandere sim

[@GreatDeath52]

I'm glad you mentioned it at the end, but you glazed over just how much the chanting from the gym theme added in sword and sheild. They made those battles really feel like they were happening in front of thousands of fans. It was so epic and I would sometimes just sit there and listen to the chanting

[@DARKi701]

Speaking of Pokemon Stadium voice acting... It's said that in the localization of mu country, Italy, the man choosen to make the commentary was the same guy Who in that years was doing the TV commentary of... F1 races (and he was also a former driver) I'm not joking, It seems that he was It!

[@katieofsister]

Wait a minute… Someone else actually knew about the Sega Pico? It actually existed? Man… I played it so much when I was young and no one ever even knew about it lol

[@HobbCap]

4:32 Fun fact fox's actually laugh like a toddler

[@Oreca2005]

Well penny is related to an adventurous dad in galar

[@joopvanhedel1372]

One thing I noticed in this video is that gen 5 is amazing. Everyone hated Gen 5 when it originally came out. A few years later there was a group of people who said that Gen 5 was underrated. And now it is in the top 3 best generations for everyone. Gen 5 is no longer underrated and people love it now

[@emred4653]

i remember playing ds and hearing roxie yell pokemon. it was nice

[@Tricrace]

Oh wow they want us to “imagine there voices”? YOU CAN SKIP CUTENESS WITH A CLICK OF A BUTTON LET THAT BE A TOGGEL!

[@Gadi872]

0:25 Delelelelelele woooooop (Least creative comment even above the comment that said first)

[@NathanaeltheDestroyer]

OMG this comment is so uncreative how dare you

[@Gadi872]

​@@NathanaeltheDestroyerIDK 😐

[@gkgeze]

Never watched one of your long form videos, I’ve been missing out

[@MaxNCheesey]

5:42 THATS A FRICKIN BASS!!!

[@Uiselmo]

I do agree with the second part of the reasoning every Pokémon game I play I come up with the voices for the characters and act it out. It’s a lot a fun to do so as well.

[@gintokeyy]

wake up babe newsteevie uploaded

[@greencopper12]

0:24 not going to lie this part was funny

[@qak5860]

I just love Incineroar's personality in Smash Bros it fits so well

[@nitebones1]

its a proper shame that they dont have proper voice acting expecally when all the major charaters are voiced in the anime. and with the games trying to be more cinimatic with people talking them just being silent is more and more jaring. what really sucks is for the adverts for the latest game to show off that gym leader with teh balls for hair the advert was her talking like a vtuber with her having a voice actor

[@lukiepooookie]

i love how in the segment about rei and akaris va's the silhouettes are tatsuya and maya from persona 2

[@CaptainObliviousV]

I don’t mean to be that guy, but I wouldn’t really call Roxie & Elesa’s gym themes true voice acting. It’s just the music being diegetic in the same vein as Team Star’s music; it gives the illusion that Roxie actually is singing, but it’s still just the soundtrack. Although I will say, as much as I love Piers, he really should’ve gotten the same treatment as you suggested, that silent cutscene was very awkward.

[@Newsteevie]

I see where you're coming from. I just thought for the sake of being thorough, I'd put them in. Plus, plenty of people do consider it to be voice acting, so I'd get many comments telling me I missed them.

[@Firefox-eg3no]

11:06 oh god that unlocked a deeeep core memory, i played the hell out of that as a kid or it was a fever dream i cant remember

[@dany_fg]

what about Ghetsis's theme ? it has lyrics too

[@pol610]

Not sure if it was mentioned, but the crowd chant on Sword/Shield Gym Battle Theme

[@Femboy_Shota]

I cant unhear the xenoblade music. It makes me unreasonably happy.

[@shelbybayer200]

Erica Mendez also is the new VA for Noire/Black Heart in the HyperDimension Neptunia series

[@InvaderIceStrike]

The PAC is so BACK!

[@ViktorErikFade]

6:11 literally if i heard that it would be so hype and id just imagine she sounds like that lol Like....they add voices in the song but no voice acting ? Come on The poor performers 😢 A singer with the only sound unironically being his sneakers moving is so sad That could have been a cut scene at least 💔

[@904funny]

Ball Guy’s voice is perfect

[@rathpunks]

I love that Pokémon Masters EX gives more life and character depth to the character giving us cannon voices but also how they interact with other characters that we dont get to see in anime or main line games. Also for those who know, they *cough* 'buffed' Cynthia. Which i hear some people are happy about

[@firebeetlethestagbeetle3901]

11:28 - 11:31 *inaudible chatting* Ash: i'm gonna win >:) 11:49 - 12:00 quite the explanation 12:03 that laugh is actually funny

[@Joe500TNG]

I really love the crowd cheers in Sw/Sh, wish there WAS more but the audience hyping up during dynamax goes pretty hard

[@imao15]

Sw/sh has no excuse brih bede’s theme has someone saying bede in the background, and the absolute banger of a gym leader theme has chanting or something

[@Meqa]

gen 4 contests had cheering in there, thats definitely human

[@Tabi-Kun]

5:17 for anyone not wanting to wait, this is when the voices start

[@stoneslab]

i would like to add that bw and bw2 had vocals in some songs as well, in the form of ghetsis and colress' themes. It's not much, but it IS voice acting.

[@melo-7904]

if you are not gonna do voice acting at least do like little dialogue beep sounds like most other RPGs that have a large amount of NPCs, i cant think of any example other than undertale, and comparing undertale to pokemon is like comparing peaches and dragonfruit so i refuse to elaborate

[@grugs6801]

You forgot Sword & Shield's chanting when gym leaders Dynamax, Piers' theme does also have some shouts in it but they are harder to make out

[@Sandstorm-TheTraveller]

3:01 OH MY GOD- Dedede is gonna be at the end of everything.

[@melsbacksfriend]

I think they should do the Super Mario Sunshine route and use subtitles for non-english versions.

[@eye_cancer]

"what's up Pikachu" "piiikkaaaa.... my home address is" 😭

[@ImPrettySureThisIsMax]

0:44 as an Undertale fan, that sound effect is the embodiment of neuron activation

[@robloxgrover4832]

19:01 Aaaaaaahhhhhhh! My eyyyyeeeessssss!

[@MelodytheH]

Another thing with smash bros, Lucario actually talks, having discernable voice lines, most memorable for me is the "MAX AURA!!" that happens when you use Lucario's final smash.

[@Oshawott315]

What about the Village Bridge theme in Pokémon BW/B2W2 after you talk to the singing guy? I’m pretty sure that was also a recorded voice. Also, Bede’s theme has his name yelled out in the song.

[@maneruloquendero]

"We want the players to make their own characterization of the characters" Excuse my french, but that argunent is stewpid. If GF really wants us to do that, why is GF giving the characters a characterisation, personality, a design? Why not just make blank characters with nothing to say or do and let the player do the rest? Oh wait, I know. Because they can't do that. GF says something but they have to do another thing anyway. Added another GF contradiction to the list

[@thebluegrookey1127]

sword and shield does infact have voice acting. It is lesser known and less obvious but listen to chairman rose's battle theme!

[@PkmnRangerOllie]

The way there was no mention of Rymes rap in gen 9

[@A_Fren]

I've always been of the opinion that a few generic voicelines alone would work complete magic. The fact we don't even have that yet is astonishing.

[@Wooperbro]

EPIC

[@MrMeowstic7]

If they can do voice acting on the ds then they have literally no excuse

[@InvaderIceStrike]

Also, technically, Arceus’s English pronunciation is officially “Are-kay-us”, but the Japanese spelling is “A-ru-se-u-su”, so… maybe Ryan Reynolds’s just spoke Japanese for a secind

[@CinnamonDaCinnamonDaKatt]

Ngl I literally downloaded Pokemon masters Ex for the voices for characters and I loved it.

[@OttoTheOtocyon]

Fun Fact: In smash ultimate Lucario doesn't say its species name like other Pokémon. It makes grunting sounds, and even has lines with actual words like "MAX AURA" when you activate his final smash. Also its voiced by Goku.

[@ForJustice-ForGotham]

Nah i remember watching that pacman show when i was little💀

[@lynell2B375]

it's a bit interesting that in other games, voice acting is something taken for granted or just taken as a basic necessities for a franchise this big. but in pokemon they became a luxury. I guess it's just a matter of perspective and context

[@dominicmonocello8896]

There were even “vocals” in Ghetsis’ them in Pokemon black and white. Which are just the voices “saying” his name

[@spencernaugle]

This is my first time being introduced to your channel, but your voice is incredibly familiar sounding. Do you have a second channel? or are you featured in another channel's videos?

[@BeIlG]

THe masters voices makes me never want voice acting. Penny's voice is a HUGE reasoning.

[@metamirby7074]

17:16 Penny is British but this spices up the theory of Peony is Penny's dad.

[@lPsychoMax]

Tbh even as a kid, I always wanted to hear the anime voices in the game. Especially jessie and james for pokemon yellow. Surprised gamefreak didn't contact them for their voices.

[@Ezecool-3105]

4:26 They aren't the only pokemon that scream their name There are other pokemon which cry is their name, for example: Mimikyu

[@Gamebuilder2000]

Mimikyu's cry is an imitation of the word Pikachu without using actual vocals which happens to coincide with Mimikyu's cry

[@Ezecool-3105]

@@Gamebuilder2000 you said mimikyu's cry concides with mimikyu's cry

[@furretmenes]

3:18 imagine if it happened 3 years later and 1 day earlier.

[@Dinotymek]

Some views in 13 seconds, i fell of a ladder

Also they chant in the Sw/Sh gym theme
