- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Out of all the generations of Pokemon, the Black and White era had some of the most innovative additions to the franchise. One of the most unique and underappreciated additions was the PWT, and today we're going to take it head on. Today we're going to find out how easily you can beat the Pokemon World Tournament in Pokemon Black 2/White 2! This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

Information about the PWT:
bulbapedia.bul...
The teams in the World Leaders tournament are slightly different than in the regular region leaders tournament; the movesets and items are all upgraded. For example, in the Sinnoh Leaders tournament, Maylene's Lucario is holding a Liechi Berry and knows Bone Rush, while in the World Leaders tournament it holds a Focus Sash and knows Ice Punch.

RIP, but also I'm cracking up at "Source: My dead Salamence".
Lucario: Ara-ara Salamence-kun
LMFAO!
Fantina: *sends out Drifblim*
me: why can't i fucking use my reshiram i mean cmon the gym leaders over in japan and korea had fucking mewtwo and lugia what the FUCK
John doing the PWT: Hey this is pretty cool.
John, realizing that he gets a trainer card star for it: oh no.
"Avengers Endgame was the greatest crossover of all time"
PWT: *Observe*
Boa cara
Hey John, Dark Expert Vito may be the same person as "cool trainer" Vito in Ruby Sapphire and Emerald's Victory Road. He's one of the more notable NPCs from that game as he's the eldest son of, and strongest member of the Winstrate family. Even if they're not the same person, he's gotta be a reference to the original because they both use a Shiftry on their teams. Just thought you'd find that interesting :)
Edit: grammar
Woah
InstaBlaster
Is that Vito also an idiot? The Vito in PWT has an Absol that knows Psycho Cut. That's a damage-dealing Psychic-Type move, something that's completely useless in a battle where only Dark-Type Pokémon are allowed.
I honestly love the PWT. Bringing back old gym leaders and champions alone is enough to make it fun to watch. :)
Ludicolo 15 Plus it was an actual challenge to complete so it was really fun overall
@@color_of_twilight Yeah. Tried it a few times just to get U-turn TM. Boy, I was in for a real challenge
I spend hours in the PWT every day. Damm, that's fun.

and their remixes, oooohh
Well, chat, we are back to generation 5. I guess it’s time for another run?
Top johntent
Don't give him more nightmares
CHAAAAAT, ITS JOHNTENT! HES BAAAACK
That pfp is from oneshot if im correct
Johntent babyyyyy
Plot twist: he did all of this to get a star on a trainer card for video he hasn’t told us about yet
well well well…
Bro tap in, it happened
B2W2 are the best Pokemon games ever made. It's absolutely mind-blowing how much content they have, and the majority of it is really good and fun content. None of the other main series games compare...
I think Gen V is solidified as the best Gen because of the B/W'a stories and B/W2's content
Tbh, i wish my favourite region, hoenn had its remake made that well
Exactly
@@ipotatosenpai7002 exactly in gen 5 then it would be one of the best game
@@ipotatosenpai7002 emerald is still really good tho.
I remember playing PWT hundreds of times. I loved seeing the leaders you defeated in the lobby after the match. It was fun to see what they said and pretty neat to try to get interesting pairs to sit next to each other.
That and trying to predict who would win the matches you weren't a part of was super fun. Thanks for bringing back some good memories!
I loved the pwt, still love it now and i am hoping EVERY SINGLE SECOND that it will return!!! Being able to battle old gym leaders and champions is a dream come true
Sad the elite 4 wasnt there sigh
Or Koga, the only Gym Leader to not take part
@@oxcare5 becouse the girl took over in gen 2 xD
@@Rex-The-Wolf Well with each new generation that is a lot of work for something 15% of players will do.

Now do "How long does it take to complete every movie in pokestar studio"
Too long
actually, that'd be cool, he'd suffer so we don't have to
There's more to completing every movie, each movie has three types of ending : the normal one, the bad one or the special one. And I think you are required to get them all to get all the medals.
Am I the only one Who enjoyed the movies? Even tho some of them required a bit of luck to complete, I kind of digged some of the movies' stories and the last movie was a fun challenge
Kristoph Esiem I only do them for the items
PWT is by far my favorite endgame content. Spent so much time on it and still do go back to there. Themes are amazing and championship level is actually challenging.
Ikr! It makes me mad I own only the previous games! This will be the only reason I'll play through B2W2 normally on my emulator. It sounds so cool.
I just noticed that one statue in the main lobby has a sword and the other statue has a shield.
n o .
That's called foreshadowing
"And with that I managed to create life out of nothing. But how did I do?"
*GENESIS*
@@MadComicMan122 lol yeah.
- dr fuji, moments before mewtwo started killing everyone, presumably
@@SlimyPennies yes! That would definitely fit him!
Wolfe should really do a wideo about him being in a pokemon game!
Why wolfe is a treat?
I tried playing the champions tournament in 2015 and was thrashed repeatedly. Didn't have much idea about EVs and setting up battles using status moves back then. I recently replayed the game and won the champions tournament in double battle. It was a 8 year long struggle and I am feeling very satisfied. Sadly no one around me plays Pokemon so I wasn't able to share this with anyone.
I won with the following team:
1.Haxorus, Jolly Nature, EVs Attack and Speed, Choice Band, Mold Breaker, Moves- Earthquake-Outrage-Rock Slide-Superpower
2. Thundurus, Adamant Nature, EVs Attack and Defense, Leftovers, Prankster, Moves- Thunder Wave-Hammer Arm- Fly-Wild Charge
3. Lucario, Adamant Nature, EVs Attack and Speed, Focus Sash, Steadfast, Moves- Close Combat-Protect-Swords Dance-Ice Punch
4. Reuniculus, Quiet Nature, EVs Spl Attk and Defense, Life Orb, Moves- Helping Hand-Psychic-Signal Beam-Light Screen
Edit: Reuniculus ability: Magic Guard
The Arcanine being named "PUPY:)" made me laugh
He may be PUPY:) but he’s actually the goat
@@pittooplays6719 he eats grass type for breakfast
It's bizarre to hear you constantly say that the PWT is an underrated hidden gem that few people even play, when I've always heard of it as the single best thing of Gen 5
Yeah, same. Every time I hear people talk about Unova, this is pretty much consistently mentioned.
@@hawktalon7890 yeah unova is now the internets best Pokémon game til this cycle goes to Gen 6
@@soulsilvergamer5225 lol it will never
@@Pokemen396 yea other than megas which realistically can be brought back at any moment gen 6 was meh and similar to ORAS it only sold on megas.
@@soulsilvergamer5225 The cycle never went to Emerald or Platinum so I doubt. Only gen 1, gen 2, hg ss and gen 5 games have been called the best. Gen 3 and 4 have been skipped over and gen 6 will never be considered great. Fact. Gen 1 and 2 are called cuz of nostalgia and the others are called good cuz they actually are. Facts
I did probably half of the PWT when getting my 5 Star Trainer card in Black 2
It was a blast!
B2W2 don't have "stars" on trainer card, only color changers.
santiago paixao I know but it’s usually referred to as a „five star trainer card“ so I just went with that
I have 5 star Black card on pokemon platin
Mitsuki Fan thats the one I‘m gonna work on next!
Pwt is something that deserves to be back in swsh... It kinda makes sense for a stadium match obsessed region to have the SINGLE GREATEST TOURNAMENT EVER CONDUCTED
Agreed! Maybe for the next games
The only thing I wished they included in PWT was a game mode that allowed you to have a 6v6
The DS would just explode lmao
Black 2 was my first own Pokemon Game, and this mode was so much fun in summer... After finishing the game, and having hundred of hours with a lot of Pokémon behind, playing these tournaments in the car during a long trip, or waiting for dinner trying different Pokemon... I have a lot of great memories from this mode and I just hope Game Freak includes some easter egg in the future remakes
Remake a sequel?
Earth Power PLZ No I don’t think they’ll do that, but with the future black 1 and white 1 remakes maybe they could have an easter egg about it like a worker saying: my boss is talking about this new building for Pokemon battles in tournaments, sounds like a lot of fun!
@@color_of_twilight Well when they made ORAS they put in a battle frontier easter egg and everyone bitched about it. So yeah don't see that happening.
Fun fact: the original bw protagonists were originally programmed as opponents for the PWT but we're scrapped.
PWT and that tower thing that was kind of like a dungeon crawler were two of the best post game activities of all time in any pokemon game. I loved them so much
Everyone: comments on the PWT
Me: PUPY! :)
PUPY :)
The pwt is basically JUST A TASTE of competetive gen 5
PWT is way better than Battle Frontier. Wish they'd bring this back one day.
The "wwwwwhat is goin' on guys? My name is John, and welcome back, to yetanothervideo" is music to my ears.
Formal John is an SCP to me after having seen his twitch and other channel
I've never went that far! Oh my! I'm definitely coming back to it soon. Need to play that champions tourney.
The PWT was amazing and it's been my favorite post-game content that's ever existed, thank you for doing a video on it!
Black and White, Black2 and White2 doesn't deserve the hate it received back then... I love it...
Thinking on it, Iris not being there actually makes sense. The Champions Tournament includes every champion of each region. Iris... isn't the champion anymore at that point. Neither is Alder, sure, but you took Iris's place in the bracket, where Alder was considered to be the strongest trainer in the region even after Iris took over. Same thing with Steven and Wallace.
Nothing confirmed in this, just my theory as to why, but it makes sense.
Wallace and Blue/Green can't be champions at the same time that Steven and Lance, if we follow your logic.
@@RandalfElVikingo well Lance is the Johto Champ so Lance being there makes sense
@@reinhardt5667 Johto and Kanto share the same league, so they share the champion.
My understanding was that former champions were allowed in the tournament (that's why Blue/Green and Wallace are not in the leaders tournament), so is weird we don't have N, Iris and the other main characters from other regions.
They also should've made an Elite Four tournament, that would've rocked.
@@RandalfElVikingo yeah that makes more sense
Im so happy you made this video!! I loved PWT when i was young, and recently i realized how AMAZING the music for it was and how underappreciated the whole thing was. Love you johnstone!!
I love how good the teams were in PWT. 25 in each IV for champions? Wow
7:08 “I wouldn’t be opposed to being a fortress master trainer.”
Don’t flatter yourself, John. You’d be the collector trainer type at most.
"Right hand ticket, middle ticket, left hand ticket"
*Where's she holding the middle ticket?*
In her mouth
Or I suppose she could be highly encouraging you to take the middle ticket
Teehee... woman's secret!
@@filipz5605 hey, I was gonna make that joke!
Maybe it's on her hat or tucked into her bosom.
This video should be called WHY BLACK2/WHITE2 IS THE BEST POKEMON GAME EVER CREATED
If Gen 8 was to bring back something like this I wouldn’t be mad. At least you will have a dark gym leader this time
this is my favorite place to spend some free time in! i love the diversity of the opponents, hands down one of the best 'tournament' side game ever in the pokemon franchise!
Hey, John! Love your content. Here's a video idea for you...
So I recently played through XD again for the first time in a decade and tried my hand at the post-game exclusive Orre Colosseum. I figured, eh...I'm older, wiser, and a much better pokémon player than I was then. Surely I can beat it, right? Haha, nope. 🙃 I got my a*s handed to me. Couldn't even beat the first round.
I'd love to see you do a "How Easily Can I Beat the Orre Colosseum?" video. Smogon even described it as one of the, if not THE toughest in-game challenge in any pokémon game to date. I recommend playing on an emulator, though, because perfect IV, EV, nature, moveset pokemon are a MUST. Smogon says so. Getting them legit in-game would be nightmarishly tedious. So no shade if you use a generator.
All the same, love your videos! Hope you'll consider my suggestion. 😁
I really enjoy your breakdowns at the end. Good content here. Looking forward to more Oaks challenges.
8:10 "It includes all the Gym Leaders and the Rivals in the Gen 5 games"
It doesn't include N John
Little did you know, further gens will not have even all the pokemon
@@darklugia8161
At least Gens directed by Masuda won't. Can't say the same for any gens beyond what he's directing.
N isn’t a rival. He’s the evil team leader (until Ghetsis).
@@rueblie2627 he does count as a rival tho
@@kristophesiem5336 Why would he count as a rival when he doesn't have that Trainer Class?
I used rotation battle to defeat these champions
I remember Veto! He's an Ace Trainer in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald. There's that house right after Mauville that you can go to where you fight an entire family of trainers and they talk about how a family member of theirs is on their way to the Pokemon League. Once you get to Victory Road, you can find Ace Trainer Veto, though I don't remember his team. I think Veto's team in the PWT being made almost exclusively of Hoenn pokemon (besides for Honchkrow) is a reference to RSE Veto. What a neat little reference!
It's so weird hearing serious/professional John after getting used to what he's like during streams 😂😂
One day, I hope they implement this feature once more, accounting for Elite Four members, Kahunas, Trial Captains, and any other important trainer like N, Zinnia, hell, maybe even Skull and Aether admins/leaders.
I often played rental in the PWT. I always had the feeling that the hand you picked mattered greatly. One gave mostly stage one Pokémon, another hand gave a mix of basic and second stage evolution Pokémon, and the last one gave a party of fully evolved Pokémon.
Probably my favourite addition to any main series game, the fact you can face all leaders/champions with awesomely remixed themes was such a buzz as a kid, and also it was extremely competitive. I remember spending hours even days sometimes just to win one specific tournament. This was the peak of Pokémon for me.
Ngl its the best feature in the franchise by far
That final mode probably only made their ptsd of finding Cynthia on that house in B/W1 even worse lmao.
I have very fond memories of this game mode, especially because this was what made me really enjoy Triple Battles. I managed by the end of it to make a nearly full-on Sand team based around doing Triples, and because of the format, it always felt really nice being able to fight the important Trainers' full teams!
Gen5 really was the prime of Pokémon
About the tickets there are differences
The right has the worst movesets you could have (like surf Garchomp)
The middle one is decent but not great (like the moves you would use on a playthrough, like leaf tornado)
The left is the best one, because it has competitive movesets, and has incredible pokemon with incredible moves
PWT i think is so under appreciated because of how little the BP reward is
This was one of the biggest attractions and what I strived for once I had the chance and actually beat it back during gen 5! Super fun and agree one of the best that not many other facilities have come close to
Finally more videos about the PWT
I mean to be fair with Koga he was upgraded from gym leader to e4 member, and they didn't make an e4 tournament(which they could have used to supplement type masters dark type since dark was pretty exclusively an elite 4 type). As for iris I guess they didn't want her to show up in gym leaders as she wasn't one(and would just be a clone of drayden but with the opposite gender pokemon), but wanted to keep her as the champion a surprise?
I always wanted to beat the PWT but never could because I sucked at pokemon :)
now we know what you should do after crystal clear 👀
The Great Nate no :)
WooffleDee :(
YEP :)
Ludicolo 15 :D
Not only were the Game Grumps featured in a Pokemon game, but also the Super Beard Bros.
Yep, as the Clefable master trainer (Alex) and the Dratini master trainer (Jirard) in Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee. (See their FireRed/LeafGreen let's play as to why those pokemon were assigned to them)
now i only need to win the world leaders tournament 9 more times to unlock the champions tournament
The two statues in the lobby have a sword and a shield. It'd be funny if they were actually hinting gen 8 this far back
B2/W2 are the best main series games and this is a hill i’m more than willing to die on
I remember playing PWT for a while but never got through to the end. That champions tournament looks really cool. It's a great and unique concept.
I wonder if Wolfey can beat himself if he fights against his own team, someone should suggest him that.
It’s so sad gen 5 didn’t have any ribbons... imagine the possibilities.
Remember when Gamefreak cared?
3 years ago with Ultra Sun and Moon yep
Yeah...
they care now......just to our hard-earned pre-corona wallet
Remember when the fanbase was good? Oh wait nevermind.
This is the reason These are my favorite Main series games. Went back a few years ago and made it through all the tournaments. Monotype Definitely took the longest
I have Black2 but haven't played it yet and your video really makes me think I should! I'm not good at competitive playing, but I might end up learning some of it because the World Tournament sounds like something I'd love to try
Have you played it, yet?
It’s simple, I see Johnstone upload and I drop everything to watch.
Finally he's doing a challenge that I have actually done myself
Can we talk about how buttery smooth his voice is?
*laughs in johnstone live*
I was never able to beat the champion tournament. As a kid this was the second Pokémon challenge I ran into. And the only one I never beat. Even after using action replay codes I still couldn’t beat it.
The PWT can be fun and it's the only place to get useful items and TMs. On the downside your potential victory is either make or break depending on what kind of match up you get against your opponents. In my experience its also kind of haxy.
I used to hate on BW/BW2. Unova was easily my least favorite game, mainly because I played it when I was young so I didn't appreciate the plot, and I also didn't like how the BW dex was entirely new mons that I didn't know. But now, revisiting Unova a decade later, I have much more of an appreciation for the games. BW/BW2 is chock full of side features that I didn't care to explore a decade ago. I regret hating on Unova so much. Such a feature rich region, and now look at how stripped down the games are. Pokemon today has no replay value.... I wish we could have games like gens 4 and 5 again
I got Black 2 when it was new and I’ve played it a lot over the years, but still haven’t beat the World Tournament :(
All Pokémon games have replay value. Don't be a Pokéboomer.
As a person with 1 DS and no gen 4 Sinnoh games, going through the HELL that is Black Tower because its the only way to get Gible, will always be one of the worst experiences in these games.
Black tower is the best for grinding pokemon to lv100
I am looking forward to doing this my self i LOVE BW2! there my favorite games OF ALL TIME
I trust you but I trust your pf more
I love gen 5 content bc thats the gen i skipped and have been going back to play recently and wow i wish i didnt skip this era
"Cilan" is supposed to sound like "Salon"?
I thought it was like "Silent" without the "t".
I thought it was see-lahn
The PWT is the reason I never transfered my good Pokémon from Black 2 to another game. I need them to be able to replay the PWT.
Is it me or when you walked across the stage it sounded like the people were chanting “Larry”?
Glad to see PUPY:) on here
Finally 😭 👏
Favorite era NDS hgss plt and B2W2 were my world
Man this just adds on to the huge list of things that makes gen 5 so god
Hi! I just wanted to let you know, you quickly became one of my favorite Tubers period! Also inspired me to get a full living HOME dex, something I would NEVER consider w/o your video AND amazing spreadsheet. Love it!
Namaste ♥.♥v
Gen 5 appreciation let’s GOOOOOOOOOOO
I was looking for additional info on this thank you so much for making this video!
I guess Iris isn't in the Champion tournament because you're the representing Unova Champ now I guess?
Doing this with the cracked out randomizer Pokémon is honestly so much fun. It can be just as easy as fighting an audino with snow warning or as hard as fighting a dragonite with pure power. It’s absolutely nuts. The movesets for the PWT battles don’t change though.
This is the only reason I still play B2W2. I still go back to it to battle in the PWT. I loved it so much and it's the best post game challenge in my opinion
Bro idk why but Johnstone’s thumbnails pop out for my eyes vs literally everything
Omg the chunky Noctowl at 7:32! Haha
now let’s get ready to rumble!
The champion cup is literally the game version of the masters 8
Prolly won’t see this but Cynthia’s pwt team is slightly different than her other theme in BW2
The PWT is such an awesome addition to B2W2. Definitely a big reason why they are my favorite games in the series. I know a lot more about battling than I did when I played Black Version 2 the first time, so I’ll be sure to check out the PWT next time I replay it!
Amazing video John keep up the amazing work
I always had trouble fighting Jasmine 😂 The PWT is the best game mode ever imo. Definitely a huge fan service mode, and I love it
Just wanted to say I hope you have a good day. :)
Thanks for uploading this, now I wanna replay my White 2 and get back to try the PWT for real. I also skipped it when the game initially was out.
