There is a damn good reason why Cynthia's Undella Town battle is so memed. You're walking through this quaint, relatively mundane town go through a house and BOOM! There she is in all of her terrifying glory ready to stomp your team while your there shaking from the memories of DPP.

[@pedromonteiro2248]

Man, it is impossible you struggle against Cynthia. She is not half hard as the Cynthia fappers claim she is... she is overrated af...

[@RIBAYRO]

@@pedromonteiro2248 if you breakdown any npc trainer in a pokémon game, it's impossible to struggle against any of them with enough preparation. Cynthia has a solid team in BW and the encounter is very unexpected. Specially so because you can battle her as soon as you beat rhe pokémon league. And her team will likely be overleveled in comparison to yours.

4680 pokedollars/yen is about 40,68 american dollars.

Of course, he probably has more stored in his bank account or something.

[@evawhite1144]

But like, seriously, we know Steven is extremely wealthy, but the moment you find him in Meteor falls, you guys are literally in a secret cave thing, where he's just searching for rocks. Why is he expected to have money on him in that situation? I'm pretty sure that money, is one of the things you don't want to carry much of, if you're going to explore a cave, especially if you don't have a place to store it in, like a bag or purse. So really, good for him that he even had anything at all on him, to give off after being defeated lol.

I can't express my actual genuine fear of discovering Cynthia in the vacation home. Diamond and Pearl's champ was truly one of the hardest, if not the actual hardest in the series. I just stumble into a home and there she is. It's not like an, "Oh cool, Cynthia! I get to battle her" it's, "Oh no, Cynthia...I have to BATTLE her?" So unprepared, I didn't even get past her first. Then again I was a child when I played that game. Good times were had

[@miragevarietyproductions3361]

You forgot the fact that you can mix records with another (or yourself) in the GBA Hoenn games essentially making your own Super Boss trainer with 6 pokemon (if you wanted to ) assuming your friend had pokemon in the 80/90 level range as well as a secret base and good held items since the only downside to the npc version of your friend's is that they can't use potions of any kind.

[@Borchert97]

This was by far one of my favorite features. I had all the GBA games and a link cable when I was a kid and very few friends who played Pokemon, so I would actually mix records with myself and then battle myself, but also give my strongest teams to my friends and mix records with them so they could battle me whenever they want. Me and a couple of my friends continued this practice when ORAS came out and it was way easier because of internet connectivity being usable for secret base sharing. Blissey bases were notoriously convenient for leveling.

[@rpgfanatic9719]

@@Klonoahedgehog If sword and shield is horrible what is let's go doing on here? It has far less content as a remake and as a new game in general, and for that matter gen 5 are the most forgettable Pokémon games only made memorable by dumb fans hyping it for being an underdog game back in the day with nothing of actual value to make it stand out. If only genwunners had better arguments it would stay down. For starters, Dream world is gone so it has naturally even less features than most other games by that default. Secondly, the seasons in the game gate off various areas, the animations are lazy puppet animations and pixelated, the battle subway is as standard as any other tower, there's no frontier and nothing to make up for that loss while most every game after gen 5 did. ORAS had the pokenav+ and preserved contests and improved secret bases, there's also soaring and preservation of being able to catch all past legendaries and the delta episode, also Amie and training mini games transferred from XY to make it more complete. In bw2, There's no contests, secret bases, they got less legendary Pokémon than HGSS, and this is the generation they removed gambling mini games too. Pokémon world tournament does not make up for any of this. There's no record system like every battle facility has in PWT so replaying is worthless. The games are also broken and buggy when it comes to competitive, so it makes completing these challenges absolutely brain dead. In gen 7 you had trainer scouting, mantine surf, poke Pelago, rainbow rocket, worm hole ride, and an improved Pokémon Amie. Like in short, gen 6 has preservation of old good mechanics that are improved that slightly make up for frontier. USUM in general just adds a lot of fun new mini game features that black 2 just doesn't have ontop of also making the world a loveable breeze to explore.

Red, Steven, and Cynthia are the best superbosses in my opinion, Red for different reasons than Steven and Cynthia. For those two, you more or less have to go out of your way to find them, and it is amazing when you're rewarded that way. In Red's case, it is the culmination of Gens I-II (and in Gen IV, I-IV, as Gen V takes place so far away that Red is an obvious farewell to the first four regions), and the game is steadily leading you towards him the whole way. I love it

Machamp and Arcanine were some of Blue's Pokemon, so those got swapped over to Red since Blue and Green had their respective starters in LGPE. That's the reasoning for Red having those. I will admit I'd have liked to see him have both a partner Pikachu (the buffed stats version) as well as a partner Eevee, since he does canonically use both a Pikachu and an Espeon, so referencing that fact by giving him both of LGPE's starter Pokemon would've been a nice touch. In the theme of gift Pokemon, I wouldn't have minded him using something like a Gyarados, a reference to the Magikarp salesman.

To this day that is probably the one fight in Pokemon ive struggled with the most, hell i never even beat her. The only fight that i struggled nearly as much on was Volo, who i may have struggled more on tbh, but i also intentionally made Volo harder for myself to relive the thrill of trying to beat Cynthia way back then.

And now with BD/SP, we technically can probably count Cynthia again for a super boss, having a team that ties with Red in terms of levels in the 2nd rematch round, as well as having competitive stat spreads across each party member more or less debatably cementing her as possibly the defacto strongest trainer in the mainline series.

Mustard's wife, Honey was the most surprising. When I saw her I thought she was gonna be the milfy trophy wife that stands around stealing your watts for random upgrades but when she couldn't find a trainer to battle us and decided to battle us, I was a bit surprised by her team. But what struck fear is when she casually yeets her pokeball for the gigantmax kantoian starter you didn't choose. A small detail for different trainers who dynamaxes/gigantamax their pokemon is how they throw it. Usually you see the two handed throw but she....yeets it with one.

[@AussieDragoon]

If you're confused why Red had Machamp and Arcanine in let's go, it's pretty simple. They're on his team as options for what he traded to Blue for his Charizard. Arcanine is the alternate Fire type that Blue doesn't have if Charmander is his starter and Machamp is on his Team starting HGSS onward, but we don't known when he got it since he doesn't have one in any of the Kanto games. So they're there to imply that Red traded on or the other for Charizard to set up his and Blue's future teams.

[@SwabcraftCreates]

Barry was a good superboss because he was the best rival in several generations and at the time had the highest lvl pokemon of any trainer. It was nice to see a rival try to keep up, whereas silver stopped growing at the elite 4, and may/brendan didn't even go past 40.

I TOTALLY agree with you on that Red one. I feel like he's in the game because it's sort of an unwritten rule that he's in every game that Blue's in (except in FRLG if you pick Leaf, of course). I feel like the game developers could have made Red the one to battle you after Mewtwo and give you the mega stones for it, but they decided to put Green into the game for... can I even call it fanservice if few people know her? Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Green, but since Let's Go is targeted mostly for new audience, Green has no relevance to them, and even to veteran players, she doesn't give as much of an emotional impact like Red does. Green just gets a bigger role (which I'm thankful for, but also confused at) and Red gets pushed back to be the most irrelevant out of the three. The atmosphere in which we find him is very underwhelming, too. In the Johto games, he's on the summit of an isolated mountain that you need to get *sixteen badges* to enter and his theme is a rendition of the Champion theme. In Let's Go he just has the normal trainer battle theme and he's standing on the side of the road to the Pokemon League like a hooker.

It was nice to see Green, but the only reason I can think of as to why it's her instead of Red is they didn't want him to walk up to you, hand you the mega stones and then leave without saying a word.

[@Just_Ants]

Actually, if you’ve noticed Blue’s team in further games (like B2W2, SM and USUM) he has an Arcanine and a Machamp, so it’d make sense for Red to have them as he may have traded them to him in exchange for Charizard and Aerodactyl.

You could do this same video topic for the side games (Mystery Dungeon, Stadium 1 & 2, Colosseum, XD, PBR, Quest, etc.)

*breaks into summer house in Undella Town* Cynthia: "YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE, FOOL!"

[@ovschinikov]

I respect hardworkers like you, hats-off

[@Kannadiga2301]

Great video JPR and a new happy year good 👍 morning 🌞

[@williamdruetta]

The ability to defend your title in Gen 7 felt like something a long time coming, and is my second favorite "superboss" in the franchise's history behind Red obviously.

[@krazysamurai]

unlucky that this was uploaded just before legends dropped. the final postgame fight definitely deserves a spot here.

[@SuperTheast]

The final fight isn’t really that difficult if you bring cresselia though. It’s a tank of a Pokémon that can easily take multiple hits and self heal. I beat it first try with no issues

[@Chloe-st7ni]

you forgot to mention a secret suberboss in Sword and Shield you can fight against Mustards wife if you upgrade the dojo to max

[@sgtjohnson]

HS/SS Red used the same party I did in my yellow play through as a kid

[@yaellramirez69]

Amazing video idea!!! Love it!!!

[@ericasawyer8985]

lol funniest part was SUP ITS ME RED, IM JUST KIND OF HERE! :D LMAOOOO LOVE YOUR VIDS BEEN A SUBSCRIBER FOR A WHILE

[@darrenlynch6122]

Regarding Red choices of Machamp and Arcanine, himself, Blue and Green teams all consist of a starter, a fire, water and grass choice which doesn't overlap there starters typing, a trade evolution, a normal type and lastly a special pokemon that the trainer is associated with, which is Red's Iconic Pikachu, Blues Aerodactyl which he has used since Black and White 2 and beyond and Green's clefable, a reference to her Manga counterpart again.

[@minecraftWithDanielD]

For some reason, watching this reminded me of Bakugans free play mode, where you could actually play as all the opponent characters, with their various Bakugan and cards. Imagine if for a Pokémon post game, or side mode, you could have the exact same free play mode, set against whoever, wherever, and whenever. It would provide no real advantage, I just reckon it would be cool

[@patricknadeau8688]

Still wish you could play as marduk against your own player, but playing as masquerade against dan was always fun

[@gypsysprite4824]

for Barry....I completly forgot he's a super boss. like i know my main platinum save has level 100s in my main team an di haven't beat the E4 that often (not that I can't lol), but Barry has literally always been a part of that save's money grinding routines because god it's underwhelming

[@arcanelight8365]

I am utterly shocked that you didnt include ULTRA NECROZMA in this video. that thing still gives me nightmares

[@HORRIOR1]

Does it even count as a Secret super boss if they don't got a full team of pokemon with levels above 70?

[@averagemiddleman1203]

Guess this is more like a secret boss but in ORAS you can find Wally in the battle chatelaine and once you beat him he will show up in the lobby with a full team of 6, Pokémon with hidden abilities and a level 81 mega Gallade which is stronger than steven’s mega metagross during the rematch. Also when you win you have a 1% chance of getting a ability capsule and he shows up once per day

[@CopiumCentral1027]

I feel like the title of Best Pokémon Superboss has now been taken by Pokémon Wielder Volo.

[@MelonTartVA]

If this has come out after Legends Arceus, Volo would probably be among the best

[@daniellageorgiou-norman2244]

ngl i actually liked how in the isle of armor, you could battle honey in the battlefield of the dojo and she is actually pretty tough. i don’t think her highest level pokemon is higher level than urshifu but to me she was a super boss too because you’d think she wouldn’t be that good compared to mustard but she is quite challenging

[@acoolnameemm]

7:12 the fear in my young teen heart when I stepped into that house will forever live with me

[@Marcomanexists]

I remember how hyped I got when I discovered Cynthia in Gen 5. Such an insanely good inclusion

[@berrybicboi9378]

pokemon black was my first game and i was so young so i just streamrolled with snivy not knowing that you could use other pokemon like that and i didnt know how to save so id just okay through to the first gym then id quit and be back at the start so i assumed that was it. But when i finally learned how to save that was the start of when i found genuine enjoyment in a game. I beat the game after a couple months when i was in around 4th grade and while exploring all the extra areas unlocked i ran into that that undella town house and saw someone who i had never seen before but i literally could just feel the pain i was about to go through when seeing her. I had never seen a single pokemon on her team prior to that and spiritomb slaughtered me over and over because i literally had no clue what it was. when i finally beat her with my level 80 serperior, 2 level 6 patrats, one level 7 lilipup, and ofc level 56 zekrom i accidentally made an hm slave😭

[@calebe4266]

7:50 Pokemon masters: What about we put both of them...TOGETHER?

[@Shay96]

My top 3 before watching: 1. Red on Mount Silver 2. Cynthia in Unova 3. Steven Stone in Meteor Falls

[@RomanceEnjoyer88]

You name-dropped every BW2 superboss except for Benga lmao. He’s got Pokémon over lvl 90 bro!
