I feel like another reason for golfers using flying types is due to the golfing terms of "birdie, eagle, and albatross" for one, two and three above par respectively
Just finished an entire class revolving around rigging a singular character, and now I get second-hand pain whenever I look at detailed 3D models. Gen 7’s especially, they actually aged real dang well and I love the Surfers. For as soulless as the Pokémon models got at times, Team Skull’s vibes STILL go hard.
It seens pretty unfair to treat the overworld plain 3D-models as an equivalent to the previous gens' detailed battle sprites when they're actually equivalents to the chibi overworld sprites.
That's the thing only Creatures Inc made the 3D models for Pokemon Stadium not GameFreak. As for Fossil Fighters,Red Entertainment and Art Dink made the 3D models from scratch and added a lot of life to them.
@@FTChomp9980 I don't see how having more workers by itself is a good thing, remember the old saying: "Too many chiefs in the kitchen". Also, Stadium lacked the overworld that GF would have to create for every 3D Pokemon game, instead having 2D menus. Believe it or not, something like this can take time away from 3D modelling. As for the Fossil Fighters models? I plainly don't like them. Way too colorful and with unnecessary spikes here and there.
We have different opinions but I personally like the 3D models of Fossil Fighters for both the first one and Champions. Your saying of the too many cooks to the kitchen would apply to Fossil Fighters Frontier that game was a disaster for the franchise. But the Pokemon 3D models do have a bright future in Gen 9 more life being into them and that's a good thing.
My favorite interaction between NPCS in Pokémon is in ORAS where a female punk takes her friend a female ace trainer to dinner in celebration of her recently becoming an ace trainer but says that afterwards they can’t be friends anymore as being seen together would destroy her reputation as an elite and the ace trainer is incredibly sadden by this. This really helps the world of Pokémon as I really don’t remember many interactions between NPCS and some of the ones I do are kind of for the wrong reasons, like the young girl of Hammerfell who asks you to bring a letter to someone named Frank in Ballonea and it’s revealed she died years ago and is a ghost this interaction is more creepy than interesting in my opinion.
No I don’t but it happens on the roof top of Mauville in the bottom left corner. There are actually a lot of random encounters in Mauville like the nugget guy, Winona standing on a tower or the depressing instances of people being evicted from their apartments for failing to pay rent also a guy that somehow knows about Genesect.
"And I love how they look in Masters." I was hoping and praying he would mention them. Masters Punk Girls are the best looking trainer class in that entire game!
Correction, Pokemon that are Flying type/have the Levitate ability, AND have their 3D models explicitly flying/floating/hovering off the ground can participate in Sky Battles. I distinctly remembered being so upset that I couldn't use my Dodrio in one for this incredibly stupid reason
Gengar too. But Mega Charizard X doesn't instantly fall to the ground the minute it evolves, becoming a bloody puddle on the ground in an incredibly gruesome fashion, what a ripoff
@@richardsphd I mean, Dragons can still fly, so Charizard X has all the tickets to enter. Meanwhile dodos (the bird that inspired Doduo/Dodrio) and Gengar cannot. Makes total sense to me.
3:39 Lockstin: “And they also use corphish because they help trim the hedges.” And water them. Wait, Corphish didn’t learn special water moves aside from Bubble and Bubblebeam in gen 6. Never seen someone water their lawns with bubbles before. Okay, Nevermind then.
I mean, could be that they use bubbles as a stand-in for misting the hedges. Since the move *Mist* is just a status move and doesn't directly affect a target.
Whilst the 3D models might not be the greatest, the 3DS era did introduce some stellar designs of old and new classes. I absolutely adore the female Sightseer class and I had forgotten how cool the Gardener class design was. Your exploration behind the Driver classes Pokémon choice was really interesting and the joke at 9:06 was brilliant!
Yea. Ironically, the NPCs 2D sprites are the best in the 3DS era, especially the young female ones. Many of them are really attractive. One example in this video is the female tourist in Kalos.
@@lamename6913 The female tourists from both the 3DS games are indeed beautiful. I actually preferred it in X/Y and Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby how you got to see the 2D sprite of the trainer class before each battle.
@@grinbrothers I prefer it as well. I think Pokémon games should retain some 2D aspects to make it feel like a Pokémon game, like the Pokémon sprites in the party menu, the item sprites in the bag menu, and, as you said, the trainer sprites before the battles. I'm not against the games being 3D. I just think a well combination of 2D and 3D can make the games more beautiful, but that's just my opinion.
The 3d models aren't the problem, the ugly colors and blurry cel-shading in most of the games beyond LGPE and BDSP is the problem. Y'all need to stop being Boomers about 3d animation, it has value and is here to stay.
I think it's a joke/reference to how everyone that has talked about Sonic said "Sonic has had a rough transition to 3D", but that could just be a coincidence.
You have to realise that some trainer classes change names not because of the region, but the connotations of the words used in the class. Kalos has "Chefs" because when talking about the real world inspo, french people generally have higher standards. the term "Chef" refers to someone who studies commercial cookery and works in a high-end commercial kitchen (So most of the restaurants in Kalos) whereas a "Cook" is someone who works in an informal setting and doesn't have a degree (so like a fast food joint.)
Glad we agree that Red and Blue are probably honeymooners! I wasn't for it until they showed up in Alola, but they just...it really seems like they've grown a lot closer since being separated as young teens (though going back through Johto made me realize Blue is quite wistful about Red. He also seems distinctly NICER in post-Kanto games. Seems like it was just a phase)
Blue really did just stomp up to Mt. Silver after like 10 years and told Red, "Hey I like you alot and have been thinking about you for YEARS bro. We're getting off this dangerous mountain and going to Hawaii. No, I will not stop grabbing your arm."
After Red defeats Blue and becomes Champion Oak gives some lesson about trust and friendship and Blue changes his attitude, he starts to treat his Pokemon with respect and becomes an honourable Gym Leader to demonstrate this fact
I really don't understand what's wrong with the 3D trainer models. They still do poses like in the 2D games, they even have losing poses now. Why is this considered "soulless"? Hell, team Skull exists. They have more "soul" in their animations than anything seen in the 2D games.
This happens a lot, it’s not fair to compare a sprite that’s always standing still to a freeze frame of a model that’s constantly moving. I’m not a HUGE fan of modern Pokémon but I gotta say it’s really nice to see Pokémon emote to being hit or fainting or attacking. Same goes from trainers having intro animations that can actually have a lot of personality vs a jpg with a pokeball flying out of it.
@@toowingless9473 People seem to completely ignore the many animations that actually show personality and focus solely on their idle stance. Look at Sudowoodo's basic attack animation, you can't tell me that doesn't have tons of charm. Sure 3D Pokémon models have their issues (not a fan of the permanently gliding flying mons, for example) but I feel like people are grossly exaggerating just to jump on the hate bandwagon.
Well, actually, the only flying types allowed in sky battles are ones with flight animations used in battle. Example: you can't use Murkrow in a Sky Battle, but you can use its evolution, Honchkrow.
One thing I’m surprised by is that there isn’t any officer Jenny’s in game (to my knowledge) despite them getting the same treatment as Nurse Joy in the anime
Nurse Joy isn't exactly the nurse in the pokecenter in the games, it's just anime's counterpart to them. Officer Jenny is an anime thing, and does not use a direct design from the games.
Yeah It always felt weird how they desapeared so much, similar looking trainers in side games would include solana but she's a ranger, and even then I feel this class is not appearing as often in the anime as today, though talking of jennies It's a thing that apparently jessy attempted learning to become a nurse alongside chanceys, I wonder if she'd have changed physically from that had she succeeded
Kalos and gen6 hoenn gave us the best class. The modern Hex maniac which is specifically the older variant of the Fairytale girl and the female counterpart to the Psychic male. What makes gen6 hexmaniacs different form gen3? the afformentioned connections, the lack of hat and being COMPLETELY ADORABLE.
Was this meant to be pinned my dude? Personally I loved the freedom of movement on the 3DS, no more being locked into up/down left/right. We learned how to walk diagonally!
As a “May oh ree “ person myself, I had a good giggle at your pronunciation.(In future it’s pronounced closer to mouldy. The r is rolled). Kura and Kuri were almost spot on though!
I like to think Pokemon Center Ladies with the weaker pokemon aren't all abandoned they're just getting physical therapy through battling and will be returned to their trainers(or new ones if they were rescued in the wild or abandoned) once they are recovered.
The reason for the delinquent having a minun on their back is because heavy metal is popular in Japan even for little kids and Japan makes even cute things hardcore like hello Kitty and a drummer guy in an inflatable cat suit who drums at supersonic speeds
I have to disagree, if there is one thing I can confidently say has been improved ever since the jump to 3D are the trainers themselves. Their designs are so good and the models have seen quite the improvement since XY, from being exclusively chibi (Say for one or two important trainers) to fully fledge models. I don't like Sword and Shield and a lot of what they represent, but I cannot deny it has some of the best character design in the series, beaming with personality (As a fun fact, in Ao3, one of the biggest fanfiction platforms out there, the second most written ship with the Pokémon tag are Raihan and Leon, being only beaten by Red and Blue. Being beaten only by the couple that has two of the most popular character in the series, that have a very attractive dynamic and have been around for 25+ years is honestly quite the accomplishment and it speaks volume of how well the characters in SwSh were designed in both appearance and personality. Too bad they were wasted on a lame story).
Great video! Maybe in the vacuum this series leaves behind, you could cover the Ultra Space Dimensions in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Moon, like the muscle jungle for Buzzwole and the hellscape apocalypse for Guzzlord? Maybe explain the niche the Ultra Beasts could have in these environments/ why they appear to be the only living Pokemon on their planets?
Maybe also what invasive species they best resemble? Some feel easy, like Nihilego (white-spotted jellyfish), but others like Guzzlord are a little trickier.
"Red and Blue- I think they speak for themselves." Actually I don't think Red's saying anything. Great video, I enjoy these various explanation series.
By the way if you or anyone wanted to know how to pronounce "capoeira": the "capo" part you got right but the "ei" is pronounced like the "ay" in "way", and in this case the R is between vowels so you should roll it like the R in "koro koro" in japanese c:
Hawlucha, being based off of a luchador, is posed like it’s about to try a move, not floating like it’s on a string like half of all flying 3d models do.
Honestly, I think Alola deserves to get a remake. Imagine an Arceus like game with larger islands to better represent the Hawaiian islands. This isn't just because I'm from Hawaii or that Gen 7 are one of my favorites
As someone who went to middleschool after bidoof existed, yes young girls can and do LOVE bidoof. I knew one who loved bidoof a bit too much, were still friends she still loves them
The 'Free Diver' class which is an all-female trainer class got its origin from the Ama diver which are Japanese divers famous for collecting pearls. Hence its Japanese name is a Shell Diver. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ama_(diving)
I think the principals have dogs to herd unruly gradeschoolers back to her, or possibly away from whatever dangerous thing they’re about to lick on a dare.
14:21 “I think they speak for themselves” Well, Blue does. Red… Not so much. Not much of a talker I know that’s not what you meant, but I just couldn’t resist making this joke.
"not 3d models that soulesly stand there" as opposed to the 2d sprites with a total of 2 animation frames and are recycled over and over again, effectively changing nothing.
I...know where those Diives and ShinkiArts images are from, and the Shinki one is ESPECIALLY noteworthy. Lockstin has been looking up Hex Maniac on some "interesting" sites lol.
Sootopolitan is actually a lot deeper than that. It’s indicative of a member of an ancient tribe that has lives in the Sootopolis area for millennia and has ties to both the Draconids and Sky Pillar. Wallace is the most prominent of these individuals, in the modern day. TLDR: Ancient tribe, not “oh you’re from that city”
I mean we got one new Frontier Brain esque class in XY. It wasn't till Sun and Moon and beyond that they kinda dropped the whole thing while still somewhat keeping the idea of a place for more difficult battles. Though Red and Blue kinda acted as the Brain type trainers in Sun and Moon.
I wonder why the hex maniacs always hold their poké balls with a handkerchief. Are they doing so to look like they're about to do a magic trick or something? Like: "I'm going to make this poké ball disappear!"
9:34 Yeah, he used a Diives’ artwork. It’s a very cute, unique style, very very cute… but don’t look them up on any adult sights, if you know what I mean. They make a lot of erotica
When you started talking about hexmaniac and you posted those two specific fanarts at 9:36 I immediately had to go to the comment section and was not disappointed LOL

Sky Trainers single-handedly ruined the idle animations of all flying/levitating Pokemon, except Gengar
and weiredly enough, Hawlucha is never affected by this curse, despite being a Gen 6 pokemon
How?.
Hawlucha, being based off of a luchador, is posed like it’s about to try a move, not floating like it’s on a string like half of all flying 3d models do.
omg i never thought i'd see my art in a Lockstin video XD
Personally I think Pokemon had it rough in general when transitioning to 3d.
Blasphemy. we stan the 3d fashion icon that is Miror b
Nah, they did not.
@@togamibyakuya8016 It depends on who you ask like with any franchise but I agree with you.
4:39 this has “See, my Girlfriend totally does exist“ vibes
Honestly, I think Alola deserves to get a remake. Imagine an Arceus like game with larger islands to better represent the Hawaiian islands.
This isn't just because I'm from Hawaii or that Gen 7 are one of my favorites
09:32 if you know ... you know ... whoever edited the video is very cultured
😉
4:50 also it's because golf has a lot of bird themed terms like albatross, birdie and eagle
As someone who went to middleschool after bidoof existed, yes young girls can and do LOVE bidoof. I knew one who loved bidoof a bit too much, were still friends she still loves them
Gotta start somewhere and glad we have awesome 3D in the games since
Ah yes, the awesome animations and render distance in sword and shield
The 'Free Diver' class which is an all-female trainer class got its origin from the Ama diver which are Japanese divers famous for collecting pearls. Hence its Japanese name is a Shell Diver.

Who were usually nude which I guess they're not doing gere
Art credit: Diives
I see you bro.
I think the principals have dogs to herd unruly gradeschoolers back to her, or possibly away from whatever dangerous thing they’re about to lick on a dare.
"Ace Duo" could still be an asexual couple
14:21 “I think they speak for themselves”
Well, Blue does. Red… Not so much. Not much of a talker
I know that’s not what you meant, but I just couldn’t resist making this joke.
14:35 Yes I knew it, RedXBlue is cannon! Lockstin said it!
based lockstin as always
"and totally together"
yeah, that's pretty much a thing at this point. GF should just canonize it
"not 3d models that soulesly stand there" as opposed to the 2d sprites with a total of 2 animation frames and are recycled over and over again, effectively changing nothing.
I...know where those Diives and ShinkiArts images are from, and the Shinki one is ESPECIALLY noteworthy. Lockstin has been looking up Hex Maniac on some "interesting" sites lol.
Very much so XD
Glad I wasn’t the only one that immediately noticed those VERY SPECIFIC artist choices for Hex Maniac fanart. 😂
"They'll burn out by collage and develop mental health issues..." Why do you have to call me out like that?
3:46
Isn't it like a super common thing for Japanese people to visit France but to be so disappointed by it that they literally get sick?
Red and Blue are definitely dating by these games 😂
4:41 Oh great, now I wanna hear more about the wacky shenanigans of a recent relationship formed by a sightseer and bellhop.
7:20 Sharpedo died from too much land :-(
I will always love the 2D trainer art Gen 6 brought
I was very much not expecting a piece of Diives art in a Lockstin vid
"rangerS. notice the S. they use partner pokemon of the opposite sex. thats what the S stands for."
oh dear god not the *ranger sex* class
I mean...the models don't soullessly stand there any more then prior games, or at least for the 3DS games.
Sootopolitan is actually a lot deeper than that. It’s indicative of a member of an ancient tribe that has lives in the Sootopolis area for millennia and has ties to both the Draconids and Sky Pillar. Wallace is the most prominent of these individuals, in the modern day.
TLDR: Ancient tribe, not “oh you’re from that city”
Too bad they never did anything with that
Like ok I get it finding good art can be tough but SHINIKI AMD DIIVES?
So the most popular tourist destination for Japanese people is Hawaii………. Huh
I mean we got one new Frontier Brain esque class in XY. It wasn't till Sun and Moon and beyond that they kinda dropped the whole thing while still somewhat keeping the idea of a place for more difficult battles. Though Red and Blue kinda acted as the Brain type trainers in Sun and Moon.
I didn't expect to ship red and blue with this video, but im glad I do now
This is probably my favourite series on your channel. My fashion sense is 100% npc pokemon trainer ❤️🔥
Glad we can all agree that Red and Blue are in love
I wonder why the hex maniacs always hold their poké balls with a handkerchief. Are they doing so to look like they're about to do a magic trick or something?
Like: "I'm going to make this poké ball disappear!"
9:34 Yeah, he used a Diives’ artwork. It’s a very cute, unique style, very very cute… but don’t look them up on any adult sights, if you know what I mean. They make a lot of erotica
The moment I saw that I almost spit out my water
When you started talking about hexmaniac and you posted those two specific fanarts at 9:36 I immediately had to go to the comment section and was not disappointed LOL
5:41 What's funny is that we actually call Krokorok "Escroco" in French (an mix between "escroc" and "croco" which is short for "crocodile")
I've been here 2 seconds and already I'm disturbed by the fact "Punk Girl" is the most replayed section. It better be wholesome when I get there you weirdos!
9:34 You know I shouldn't be too surprised given this channel has done a video on Pokemon rule 34 before, yet here we are
9:35 Wait a gosh darn second
9:08 well that got a little bit too real…
5:40 another fun fact about that : Krokorok's French name is "Escroco" ... definitely not emphazing the "ESCROC" or "CROOK" of the name :)
9:33 Are we just going to ignore that Lockstin used art by Diives? I mean, he has used cropped yiff in thumbnails before, but still.
Am I the only one who would love to be part of the Mysterious Sisters? I mean, I love a good mystery. ^^
Blue is wearing a pair of mom-3/4-pants, isn't he?
Plus Gnogging on the Red X Blue ship confirmed
We don’t have to talk about Lockstin using art by Diives for the Hex Maniac.
If you know, you know.
