Underrated Pokemon Games! Reacting to "The Best Pokemon Game You Never Played" by Jaiden Animations

It started when @jaidenanimations attempted a speedrun and got a world record. Now I'm looking at the best pokemon game you never played. Jaiden Animations explains the Pokemon Hunter series and how it's an underrated Pokemon Game! I figured Pokemon Snap or Pokemon Mystery Dungeon would be the most underrated. Jaiden's Pokemon review is awesome and the animated Pokemon video is unbeatable! What game do you think is the best kept pokemon secret? Let me know with a comment below! I saw another video from Jaiden Animations about The Most Underrated Game Ever, may have to check that out sometime!
Make sure to check out Jaiden's video here: • The best pokemon game ... and you can subscribe to my channel here: / yobgs
I've also had the chance to react to "I've never beaten Minecraft before" and "My First Pokemon Nuzlocke"- both incredible videos! If you wanna see my Jaiden Animations reaction check out "Minecraft Crossover! Reacting to I've never beaten Minecraft before".

I feel like the Pokemon Ranger games are a major reason why they started selling those touch screen protectors.

[@lordoflasagne2430]

Okay so, a few things to clear this up (hope you'll read this; also strap in, this got rather long): First of all, the pokemon ranger games play pretty much in a different universe from the normal pokemon games (there's a few crossovers, but meh). This means basically: no gyms, no league structure. No pokeballs. No pokemon-on-pokemon fights. Pokemon are usually all wild, only hanging out with humans in a friendship- or petlike realtionship. This leads us to the following: the rangers. They are like a peacekeeper unit for the regions. They use their stilus ("friendship circles") to channel/send their emotions to other pokemon to calm them or befriend them. That's why there is a system where you can only use each captured mon once (either to clear an obstacle in the overworld or to assist you in battle with their friendship) and then they are released back into the wild. Also, not everyone can become a ranger, you need a special amount of kindness and emphaty to connect with the different mons. It's kinda like the jedi, just not with force but THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP. The only exception to this rule are the evil teams (team dim sun in this case). They usually have some special devices to just hypnotize or override the pokemon's brains, making them slaves to their bidding. Rangers can then undo this with their FRIENDSHIP to free them from their enslavement and release them back into the wild. So that's how that works. No stealing pokemon, only freeing them or taking them with you for a short time for their help (btw you also can't remove pokemon from their original habitat). Also "battling against dim sun members" really means that they send their pokemon slaves to attack you, the player character, directly. You then have to "catch" them (the mons) with your stylus to calm them down and stop the from literally harming you. Yeah, the ranger games are a little darker from time to time. Just wanted to give a bit of inside into the lore as a huge fan of all of those games. Ps. Yes, all of my ds' bottom screens have a severe case of circle markings.

[@YoBGS]

I said this somewhere else but I’m just flabbergasted this game had such deep gameplay. Like it seems like a silly game. I mean, FRIENDSHIP LOOPS! But then I read your comment and it actually makes sense and makes Jaiden’s argument even stronger. Thanks for taking the time to write this and explain it all to me!

[@Diamond1234]

Yep, and you befriend pokemon to basically ask em for a favor to help you once and they go back to where they came from except for your partner pokemon, haha.

[@theshadowling1]

Honestly, what the capture stylers do is make pokemon like you, and break free of their trainers. Pokemon Rangers never capture pokemon with balls, they use a Capture Stylers to make a pokemon like them and be willing to work with them.

[@YoBGS]

It’s still wild that this game has you steal basically everyone’s pokemon

[@ImPersonNation]

@@YoBGS pokemon hypnotized to be evil, or wild pokemon that you need to help you. And it's all temporary, they go back to the wild once you use them once.

[@SuperiorPosterior]

@@YoBGS The stylers actually don't work (as well, I should say) on Pokémon caught in standard issue Pokéballs. 90% of the time, a Ranger's job is to prevent large scale damage from rampaging wild Pokémon, stop PokéPoachers from illegally stealing truckloads of Pokémon from their natural habitats (basically, prevent them from disrupting ecosystems. Even if a group of 5 kids all came through a forest and caught three Pokémon each, they'd have to encounter those 'mon, and Pokémon SPECIFICALLY challenge Trainers if they WANT TO BE CAUGHT. So scooping up a hundred Slowpoke is bad, but a Slowpoke being caught is alright). Dim Sun is poaching via hypnosis. Therefore, the friendship loops work. If a Ranger tried to friendship loop a legitimately caught Trainer's Pokémon, the loops would fail. A good way to think of it is like this: Pokéballs require a certain level of willingness from both sides (that moment when Random Encounters are supposed to be taken as implicit consent from the Pokémon, oof). Friendship Loops supercede consent because they're not asking "be mine so I can train you", they're saying "calm down and gimme a hand for a second, then we can go our separate ways."

[@pengie-gw2lu]

@@YoBGS Most of the pokemon you capture in this game are wild (and sometimes being mind-controlled), and the few that aren't wild are agitated for some reason (usually because something is causing them to be in pain) and you're capturing them to calm them down so you can address whatever's agitating them before you return them to whoever they live with.

[@AndersRose]

How the gameplay works is that you "catch" them with the loops temporarily and they assist you but if I remember correctly you can only have a very tiny limit of pokemon at a time (like 3-4 maybe). You dismiss them when you're done, also (again from memory of just the first game) all the bad guys' pokemon are not theirs just controlled by them.

[@carlosx8603]

So, the "friendship loops," as Jaiden calls them, are less energy ropes and more... actual energy; each completed loop sends friendship energy to the Pokémon within it. Capturing an enemy Pokémon basically releases them from the enemy's control. So it's less bondage and more... convincing them to help you/not be with the bad guys.

[@TimeturnerJ]

In the world of Pokémon Ranger, no one owns Pokémon, so no, you're not stealing anyone's Pokémon. Nor are you keeping any, anyway - Pokémon Rangers are trained to be, well, rangers - which means they're responsible for keeping nature stable and healthy. They're looking after the wild Pokémon, but they're also trying to disturb them as little as possible. Rangers have a special device called the Capture Styler - however, it doesn't 'capture' Pokémon in the way you're used to from the main line games. With the styler, you spin circles around the Pokémon you wish to capture - and Aiden was right to call them "friendship loops", because they make the Pokémon friendly towards you. It will stick around for a while, maybe do one simple task for you, but after that, it will disappear back into the wild. Team Dim Sun, on the other hand, uses the Shadow Crystals to brainwash the Pokémon and make them obey their command. By capturing them with your styler though, you can break the mind control, which allows those wild Pokémon to escape back into their natural habitats. The only Pokémon that sticks with you throughout the game is your partner-Pokémon (Plusle or Minun), and that's simply because it's your friend and it wants to stay with you, not because you caught it in a Pokéball or anything like that. No one is forcing it to be here. Here's a little fun fact, btw: Back in the Gen 4 days (Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, to be specific), if you wanted to get that elusive Manaphy egg, you had to first complete a quest on Pokémon Ranger to get it (I'm pretty sure that was only on the first Ranger game though, not the sequels), and then transfer it over to your main line game! ,,,well, that's the non-action replay way to do it, anyway. ;D (And yes, my lower DS screen is _very_ circle-y. It's been years since I've played a Pokémon Ranger game, but they definitely left their imprint on my poor DS, haha😂 Even when you're trying to be careful not to press too hard, some capture missions are easier said than done, and you only make it through with gritted teeth and _very_ quick loops (especially the first game had some brutal captures), which means you can't really afford to go easy on your screen at the same time. :'D)

[@BenMaguireLONEWOLF9989]

Plusle or minun is only the first game. Shadows of Almia allows fro a lot more potential partners such that by the end of the game, I think there's a partner for every type. Guardian signs only has one, which is known as "Ukelele Pichu" Manaphy was available from all the ranger games, it was one of the incentives Nintendo gave to get them. The only caveat is that at least in Shadows of Almia, it was a limited time access mission.

[@ssr8555]

In this specific game Jaiden is playing, your partner Pokémon options are a Munchlax, Pachirisu and something else, I don’t remember. You also get more partner Pokémon throughout the game that you can switch to which is cool since they all have different abilities!

[@absolutelyrandom4978]

If I remember correctly, all of the Pokemon in the game are wild and thus you’re not really stealing them or anything. No one necessarily owns the pokemon, it’s just that they either decide to help you (because of the loops) or decide to help the people you’re against (due to being hypnotised). The crystal and devices are honestly similar to the shadow ball in the movie ‘Celebi: The Voice of the Forest’ without capturing the pokemon and changing their level. With Minecraft KZbinrs, I highly recommend Fundy and Skeppy. Both are on the Dream SMP (though, Fundy’s more involved in the story). I recommend any of Fundy’s videos (especially ‘I made every block extremely slippery (ft Wilbur Soot)’) as long as it’s not ‘I went on a date with Dream...’ and ‘So I hunted Dream...’ because those are part of a side plot in the Dream SMP called The Dreamon Hunters. For Skeppy, I recommend the videos showing how he and Bad became friends. (In order: I applied for staff on a server and this was the interview..., BadBoyHalo Banned Me For Ping Spoofing..., I went undercover to get in a call with the owner... he was so mad, he cried when we got him to 100,000 subscribers) or the newest one (I donated $50,000 to BadBoyHalo). Their friendship is just the most wholesome thing ever and well worth a watch (even if it’s not in a reaction video). If you’d like a new game to react to, DisguisedToast makes really good Among Us videos showcasing big-brain plays. Speedruns in Among Us don’t really exist since speedrun.com rejected the game but some people like to ‘speedrun’ tasks/finding the impostor and the basis would be how many meetings they went into as opposed to the time.

[@HugoMedLuev]

15:32 I just played for a short glampse, but Stylers are intended for temporary captures (you can see this in the "Pokemon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea" movie) and there are some exceptions, which are achieved by side quests most of the time, that can give your Styler some RPG advantages (the upgrade kind, as slowing down the objective or speeding the capture progress)

[@nixian_zwaylus]

so. the capture mechanics are actually very much canon. the pokemon rangers are kind of like the police and the national animal foundation combined. they look out for the wild and do police stuff. most of them also have an uncaptured partner pokemon. what the stylers do is subdue a pokemon without actually capturing it, what probably enables them to control captured pokemons (though i don't think they can, the evil team very well might be using wild pokemon).

[@ReiyukaE]

Hiw the friendleness loops work is it calms pokemon down. And in the game, you only own 1 pokemon. It the pokemon at the start which bonds with you. The other pokemon you loop and they help you out, but its againced ranger code to take those pokemon out of the the area you caught them in

[@Scarletcroft]

About the magic mcguffins.. 3 and 7 are magic/lucky numbers so they are the most familiar. 4,5, 6, 8, 9 are also pretty common in games, though. .But mostly they give a clear sense of progression and indication of how far along you are in the games story (like chapters). At least 1 and 2 is too little effort and over 10 is often overdoing it. 10 might be the final boss/dungeon, though. It's fairly arbritary in the end.

[@wesleypatterson2989]

These are definitely great games! To answer your question about the catching, from what I remember, once you capture a Pokemon, it will follow you around until you beat whatever mission your currently doing. You can use them to do certain things, like I remember one mission where you use a Wartortle to help put out a forest fire.

[@the_furf_of_july4652]

Friendship loops make Pokémon friendly and/or bring them back to their senses. They’ll help you out a bit before returning to their natural habitat. Contrast that with pokeballs which are essentially indefinite servitude. Actually, if you want to talk game mechanics, befriending a pokemon normally causes them to help you out (follow you around a while, clear obstacles, break things if you want). But, iirc, if they’re under the control of a Gigaremo, they’re no longer aggressive, but they immediately run off. This makes breaking gigaremos pretty tricky, and makes your encounters with Dim Sun more like pokemon trainer battles compared to wild battles. But Dim Sun didn’t catch their pokemon either, they’re all hypnotized with gigaremos.

[@SerenityM16]

7:50 I think it was originally a thing at colleges with fraternities and sororities but if they do do it anymore it’s much more stupid prank junk, and that trope just kinda seeped into “school you live at in general”

I love ur content keep up the good work!

[@YoBGS]

Thanks for the encouraging words!

[@SaphDegatzlXl]

There are no gym leaders in this context! And none of the pokemon were captured or kept the loops of friendship on, that was just a funny visual gag for the animation. The loops shared feelings of friendship and calmness basically, which is how you either broke pokemon free from Dimsun's gigaremo-induced control... or you recruited wild pokemon to (temporarily) help you out! Once they help you, they go back home. Partner pokemon are exceptions to that though. They're ones that bond closer to you than others and stick by your side. You can switch between them at home. (I played this ranger game when younger and didn't know it wasn't that popular. I still have it and still love it. Going to even re-play it soon! Good memories. I also suggest playing it yourself.)

[@SaphDegatzlXl]

Also, re: loop pressure on DS It is indeed one of those things where so long as you aren't pressing like your life depends on it, it's a-okay! I should know, I actually press pretty hard, it it was other things that would mess up my touch screen, not my many loops, lol.

[@YoBGS]

That's so wild! Like as someone who is used to conventional pokemon it's hard for me to wrap my brain around that world, sorta like Dungeon Dice Monsters and Yugioh

[@SaphDegatzlXl]

@@YoBGS It's set in the same universe still too, from what I understand. As in Pokemon Rangers AND Pokemon trainers exist. They just have different roles! I think there was even a pokemon movie or two that showed Pokemon Rangers? Like they work more on conserving wild pokemon and helping them than capturing them to fight. Since you share your feeling through the tool too, there is more direct communication on why you need their help, lol. Of course I'm not an expert and my memory IS rusty, so I suggest taking this all with a grain of salt and looking onto playing the game(s) yourself! ♡ Personally, I want to try out the other two ranger games some day.

To explain the loops: When pokemon are under team dim sun's control they are freed from the control and released into the wild. When a pokemon is a wild pokemon the loops allow you to temporarily catch the pokemon but once you use it's move to help you it will leave and return to the wild the only exception to this us your partner pokemon which is the pokemon that you use loops on at the beach near the beginning.

Similarly, Pokémon you loop can perform actions and are then released immediately if I remember correctly. You don’t catch them so much as form temporary bonds.

[@JJ-ml7pq]

Oh, also- the bad guys aren’t catching Pokémon, either. Those “Gigaremo” doodads just mind-control local Pokémon. They want to build the massive tower thing to boost the area of effect.

9:20 I was about to make a joke about bondage, but I guess now I can't bc it's implied-

[@FizzleIsGaming]

i miss playing these games. shadows of almia was so fun

[@TwilightWolf2508]

Every kid I knew with a Pokemon Ranger game had hundreds of circles permanently scratched onto their screen.

Hey I got a recommendation for you if you like or are interested in Tabletop RPGs. JoCat’s Crap Guide to D&D videos. There are longer videos for things like Alignments, Races, etc., but the videos for the classes are like 2 and a half minutes each, so you could plow through all of them in one go!

[@YoBGS]

I love tabletop RPGs! I play a good bit of DND and just got into For the Dungeon awhile ago

[@andrewstephenson5825]

Jaiden doesn't mention the running gag where whenever someone gets tied up, the person doing it says they'll tie them up "a smidgeon on the tight side" Edit: Also the other rangers games are very good

[@wingedone6512]

I'm wondering why people seem to have more patience for 2D cutscenes than the cutscenes in sun and moon or sword and shield? In the older games you still get stopped to look at dialogue and the sprites moving around doing things. So I don't really get it? I don't get bothered by any cutscenes though.

[@krystaloftheshores]

Same. I really liked the cutscenes in Sun and Moon (and Ultra), because I liked seeing more of the story besides just scrolling through text. It makes the game feel more real. Although I kind of preferred the story in Sun and Moon than in Ultra, just because the evil Lusamine arc was a lot deeper than what i was used to in previous games. I guess some people prefer gameplay over story. Makes me kinda sad though, cuz the story makes sense of a lot of things that happen in a game. HOWEVER, for those trying to soft reset for a shiny starter or a particular gender, it’s agony to go through the starter Pokémon cutscene every time.

[@JuiceboxTheShuckle]

In Ranger, you can only have 1 pokemon. Your partner. Wild pokemons are only looped to use for a moment (like the aggron that broke the boulder, or water pokemon to put out a fire, stuff like that)m but you don't keep them, the wild ones that are being controlled by the rocket thingy are freed as well, they calme down when looped, and pokemon from villains are looped in order to free them from their trainer.

[@ReginaCordium722]

i played the first ranger game and i absolutely destroyed my touch screen lmao i was like 10 and over excited over seeing my favorite pokemon

[@aname8453]

YOOO POKEMON XD GALE OF DARKNESS. i grew up with a gamecube so the music is so nostalgic.

[@YoBGS]

Miror B is the biggest mood to ever mood

[@fey2793]

I Would love to see you react to the Hermitcraft Server and crew, especially Etho, Grian, Mumbo and Scar (my favs)

[@logansmith2703]

2:05 excuse you sir. That is a PoliWAG

[@a_orange_sheep3464]

Keep up the good content! I love it!

[@mediocreartiste]

the friendship loops are kind of to un-hypnotise the pokemon and kind of to capture then free the mons :)))

[@ehlannaspink6010]

Thank you so much for doing this video!!!!!!

[@YoWuzUp]

2:21 That's Y, Moon, and Shield. I'm a little surprised she liked shield more than y but personal preference.

[@rowenaconzaga4597]

In my opinion the pokemon from sun and moon are the best

[@rowenaconzaga4597]

And i have an irrelevant topic

[@naolucillerandom5280]

Oh yes, I had one of those games and it did kind of worn out my screen because little me would rather do that than risk touching a bit too lightly and loosing 20 loops.

[@blauelilie2049]

In my school there was a kind of initiation called "U-Taufe" or "U-babtism" where a group of students would pick you up carry you to the school well and dump you in it

[@444traper]

You could try reacting when you want see minecraft again, the history of speedrunning on 2b2t of FitMC

[@YoBGS]

Totally, that's on my radar but some people had asked for a break so we took a day off of Minecraft

[@francisbonnefoy7887]

Your theme music.. is that bananas in pajamas but cooler?

[@YoBGS]

Haha I can't un-hear it now but it's the Miror B theme from Pokemon Coliseum

[@Eazy_Peazy]

Don't worry, I've fallen down the Minecraft hole too. *I can't escape it and I don't want to.*

[@Epsi743]

when you use friendship loops on a Pokémon they become friendly with you and tend to be willing to help out. But they can also just leave whenever they want. It’s not like capturing them in a ball and keeping them with you. None of the dim sum grunts actually capture any Pokémon either. They just control them with the machines.

[@hermioneaza1413]

yobgs: its a tailow nintendo: ITS NOT A TAILOW ITS A STARLY

[@Drako2k0]

I tell ya i’ve been having fun watching “Dee Bee Geek” play Breathe of the Wild not only for the first time, but his first ever Zelda game! And i’m looming forward to watching him play OoT, MM, TP, and WW. Definitely recommend checking out his BotW playlist. Even if you dont record your reaction for us, just to enjoy it for yourself 👍

[@paigey-poo4235]

... so I was taken aback by the intro to this video as I’m listening to people reacting to Jaiden podcast style while I play through White 2 since as a youngin I never actually managed to beat it (I have a tiny grudge against dragon types tbh) and my starter in this run is a Tepig. Guess what I named him.
