    I like how he says that when Lance used Hyper Beam on a human it helps proves he is evil. But in the anime, Ash uses Thunderbolt on the Team Rocket members a lot. Does that mean Ash is evil as well? And then... the Pokemon league isn't Pokemon government they are just a test for trainers. All they did was train their Pokemon and get to that position to battle the best trainers. Isn't that the point?

    Assuming Lance is evil, he may have been concerned about the Magicarp evolving solely because it would prove a threat to him for a large amount of people to suddenly be owning Gyradose. Or it would be a threat if people got their hands on technology that allowed them to evolve Pokemon instantaneously.

      plus in gen iii gym leaders each sided with team magma or team aqua based on their preferences or personality, though quickly turned against them when groudon and kyogre went out of control, making them neutral

Not to mention it's pretty much confirmed that the league tournaments are only held once a year-ish. The game just allows us to challenge whenever we want out of sheer convenience.

    • @rubikfan1

      the elite 4 are like sport men/woman that get gold medals. they are only good at fighting fair. they are not trained to be law enforcers.

    • @LeonGun8
      @LeonGun8 9 років тому +1

      rubikfan1 In the games the more and more they remake and keep making further generations,the more we are shown that they CAN get involved, but choose not to.
      In the manga, the original Indigo Plateau Elite Four are basically PETA on steroids, with a dose of genocide to boot, hatching plans to literally destroy most of Kanto's human populationand selectively keeping only those they deemworthy alive. The succesor to the former Elite FOur are formed by former champions and even a former-member of Team Rocket. Later on in the manga we actually see other regional Elite FOur actually helping out, with SInoh's Elite FOur being responsible for protecting the region fromthe devastating effects causes by Team Magma and Team Aqua, among other things.
      So basically, the games portray them as lazy dbags,the manga has given them some very interesting protrayals.

  • @ShadowLinkIcarius
    @ShadowLinkIcarius 11 років тому +12

    The Elite Four's job is to stay and wait for trainers even if there is trouble going on. They can possibly only have a few breaks as strong trainers are hard to replace when elites want to become champions. As for the Lance thing he saw potential in you from the beginning so he could trust you in stopping Goldenrod City invasion. For the Lake of Rage that would have affected Kanto AND Johto, instead of the one region.

    • @Kizer5Red
      @Kizer5Red 11 років тому +3

      agreed. the elite four have nothing to do keeping peace.
      they are just to fight. they live to fight and that is all they want to do.
      personally I have never liked the elite four, just the idea, I prefer something closer to the indigo plateau you see in the anime. but I don't play much of the games anymore.
      Fire Red was the only one I really liked, but I lost interest after you beat the elite four, post game play has no appeal to me in this game

    In my opinion the E4 are constrained by rules to not get involved, sort of godly in a way. The only time they do intervene is maybe if it is their home or they feel that it will lead to ultimate destruction if they don't.
    I think they're fully aware of the main character and his potential and actually know that they don't need to step in, that it's not their destiny.
    But then when one of their own hometown is under attack they have to step in obviously.

  • @pastakittyqueen
    @pastakittyqueen 11 років тому +8

    Which Elite Four do you mean is say "evil"? Looking at the Pokemon Adventures manga, the Kanto Elite Four could be considered evil. In the Red/Green/Blue chapter, they only appear once as silhouettes at the Indigo Plateau. But in the Yellow chapter, they're pretty intense. They actually wanted to destroy all of humanity so there could be a place for Pokemon to live. Lorelei froze Red in ice, Lance blew up Vermillion City, Agatha tried to kill Green (I'm referring to him as Prof. Oak's grandson. Deal with it), and honestly, the only one that didn't do something insane was Bruno who had most likely been brainwashed. In the Gold/Silver/Crystal chapter, they're all past villains. Bruno and Koga started as a kind of bad guy reform, and even helped out Red and Green with getting to Ilex Forest during the whole Mask of Ice thing. Will and Karen, on the other hand, worked alongside the Mask of Ice. But they joined the bad guy reform anyway. In the Ruby/Sapphire chapter, the entire Hoenn Elite Four joined forces with Wallace and Steven to prevent Kyogre and Groudon's warring from destroying Hoenn by taking control of the Regis and getting the translations of the stone tablet to find the Regis in the first place. In the FireRed/LeafGreen, the only member to appear was Lorelei, who was defending Four Island. That's about it. And in the Emerald chapter, they never appeared. Ever. All that villain-stomping was the Frontier Brains and the Dex Holders. And up to where I've read in the Diamond/Pearl chapter, the Champion was the only one to help, and the Elite Four themselves haven't appeared at all. So yes, they're evil, but they're also good. It's all dependent on who and when though.

    @Auron3991 8 років тому +4

    Well, in the manga, the Gen 1 Elite Four are evil, however completely separate from Team Rocket. In the games, on the other hand, I doubt it. Let's run some facts and draw some conclusions:
    Fact 1: pokemon have been used for war (confirmed in Gen 1 by Lt. Surge)
    Fact 2: the Elite Four are close to the most powerful trainers in the region
    Conclusion 1: Elite Four member is probably at least considered, if not actually, a military position. Also explains Lance's coldness when dealing with the Rocket, as they were an enemy combatant.
    Fact 3: it is considered poor form, at least in the west, and a sign of weakness in the international community to use military personal for civilian law enforcement
    Conclusion 2: the Elite Four and Champion are probably legally barred (or highly discouraged) from taking part in civilian law enforcement.
    Fact 4: Gym Leaders are commonly viewed, and act as, protectors of the city (mostly manga and anime, but there is an example in gen 2 at least with Jasmine helping the Ampharos in the lighthouse).
    Using the above, we can analyze the scenarios laid out. The Gen 1 Elite Four didn't get involved with the Rockets because it was a civilian law enforcement matter. Directly taking out Giovanni would have been a political nightmare, as he was the Viridian City gym leader, and thus a very important person to the population. Lorelei could interfere at the Sevii Islands because it was her home, and few would argue with one helping out at home. In Gen 2, Lance was probably trying to stop Team Rocket from making a comeback, so he got involved in the Lake of Rage incident. He almost certainly could have cleared them out himself, you were just along for the ride and to save at least some from his wrath (I subscribe heavily to the theory that the Elite Four chambers have power limiters in them). That would have caused a political firestorm (and perhaps some soul searching), which he was still dealing with when the attack on the Radio Tower happened. Remember, it was a very short time between the two attacks (one each of gym, route, and cave).
    Now, this only applies for Gen 1 and 2 (as I didn't learn the storylines and Elite Fours of other gens that well).

    I don't think the Elite Four are good or evil, the feeling I always got toward them is that of pride, and indifference. They don't help fight crime and stop disasters because they feel they are above that. They only get involved when it affects someone or somewhere that's important to them, otherwise they sit atop their plateau, ignorant of the "petty squabbles" of the outside world. Only a trainer who can defeat them is deemed worthy of acknowledgement.

    Anyone considered that being the most powerful trainers, they have taken an oath to not interfere for good or evil? For it is the winner of history who decides what is good and what is evil... and what would stop them from taking over and ruling the world if they were allowed to interfere? There might be laws within the universe of pokemon that prohibits the elite four to take action.

  • @XeroShifter
    @XeroShifter 10 років тому +3

    A couple things to keep in mind: The Anime, the Manga, and The Games all have different canon, so any cross referenced pieces of information are invalid. Additionally you cant just fill in the unknown factors with assumptions. Lance may disappear at an inconvenient time, but that doesn't mean that you assume he just bailed on you. Since we're arguing without much of a factual base we have to make the kindest assumptions of our opponents, and your video requires a lot of strange leaps to come to the conclusion that the elite 4 is evil. What if Lance was originally on his way to his mother's house and then found out about the magikarp situation, freaked out, then midway through calmed down, decided that you could handle the rest, and took off?
    As for Elite 4 needing your help, then leaving it to you, its entirely possible (and even plausible, given what multiple canons have established) that the Elite 4 didn't have their fully leveled team on them at the time. If they had only a few of their lesser trained pokemon, its completely reasonable to assume that at that particular moment, you were more capable than them.
    Additionally we're not really sure what role the gym leaders, and Elite 4 and champion really play in government in the pokemon multi-verse. If something is outside of your job description, or outside of your know-how it doesn't make you evil to decide that you're not confident enough to take it on, even if you're capable. Maybe its not particularly empathetic, but calling anyone evil because they chose not to be the good Samaritan and help the guy getting mugged is an extremely black and white, and wrong view of things.
    You also are generalizing a LOT here. You group ever elite 4 member together because one is probably a member of team flare, and Lance has a serious temper. What about Agatha, who at the very least in the anime canon is very helpful, and nice? Anyway, I'm out of time and must go to work, but I really feel like what you did for this video was set up your conclusion, then looked for the facts to lead you there, as opposed to looking at the evidence first, then determining the conclusion from there.

    @jdenney 10 років тому +6

    In the Red/Blue/Yellow mangas, aren't Lt. Surge, Erika, Blaine, Sabrina and Koga part of Team Rocket? That also includes Giovanni, so 6 of 8 Gym Leaders are part of Team Rocket. That would make sense that the Elite 4 would be either a complacent party, or turning a blind eye (until it become too chaotic) to the activities of these terroristic orginizations. In the Gold/Silver/Crystal Manga it is also revealed that Pryce was the emerging leader promoting Neo-Team Rocket (correct me if I am wrong) and that Neo-Team Rocket also featured a number of other gym leaders. This trend may continue throughout Gens 3-6 as well, and I would not be surprised.

    • @cyndrift
      @cyndrift 10 років тому +3

      Well, Lt. Surge, Sabrina and Koga were avid members of Team Rocket, but Blaine was just a scientist they manipulated,and he ran off with Mewtwo and Yellow later to stop the Elite four, and Erika was thought to be evil but turned out to be good, and never had anything to do with Team Rocket. In fact, she hated them. In the manga at least the Elite four didn't really care about Team Rocket all that much, but Lance did help out Silver in taking down Neo team Rocket. I don't know what you mean by featured, but no one else in Johto or Kanto was a Gym Leader and part of Neo-TR, although Lt. Surge still wants to serve Giovanni and old TR and many of the grunts in old team rocket are also in Neo-TR, as evidenced by the fact that they remember Lt. Surge and treat him as boss after the brainwashing lost its affect. In general I agree with your statements.

      It is revealed in the Yellow arc that the majority of the Kanto Elite Four have the goal of wiping out humanity and recreating the world as a paradise for Pokemon. The only one who isn't interested in this goal...is Bruno. He, however, is under Agatha's mind control for most of the arc and so is an antagonist during that time. In the GSC arc...there is no Elite Four for Johto...but two of the members from the game are followers of the Mask of Ice...and Koga is a former Team Rocket Admin as are Sabrina and Lt. Surge. Make of that what you will. In the Hoenn arc...the Elite Four are active participants in saving their region from the disaster looming overhead. True, they are mostly working behind the scenes under the direction of the League Director and Steven Stone, but they are at least involved. I haven't read enough of the Sinnoh arc yet to know about that region's Elite Four or any arc afterwards. I am a bit behind if you can't tell. Point is: *some* of the members of the Elite Four for certain regions are arguably evil...though Lance and Lorelei do both reform after their defeat in the Yellow arc as do Karen and Will after GSC. Koga had already reformed somewhat between the end of Yellow and the beginning of GSC. Mostly he just wanted to defeat Green Oak in a fair fight. Crazy ninja.... Sorry if my response is a bit long, but....you did ask. And I like to give complete answers.

    Correction it has been CONFIRMED that malva was is in team flare and she was an admin for 3 reasons 1. She has bright red hair like all team flare members 2. she was fine with threatening you and 3. when you play through the looker missions she wants you to come to hotel rishisemme then states that she was a high ranking team flare official but when it was shut down she stopped leaving the pokemon leuge and is doing it full time AKA she was a team flare member but realising she would get canned from the pokemon liege she quit team flare

    In post game of X and Y its clearly shown that Malva was part of Team Flare yet Diantha made her one of the Elite Four cause why not and she gave no fucks

    In the x and y update there is a side quest for looker and Malve (srry for bad spelling) states she WAS a member of team flare

    If you use examples from Adventures, you can also add that Lance wanted to kill every human on the planet.

    If you read the pokemon manga, the Elite Four were the main antagonists of the Yellow Series. In the Ruby and Sapphire Series, however, the elite four of the Hoenn region did attempt to help stop the calamity that was taking place.

    Dat the G/S/C Pokémon Trainer Red theme in the background? (Off-topic question)

      It's also Champion Lance's theme. I'm just so used to not even bothering to talk about the Elite 4.

    Elite Four Malva had an ironic choice in fashion.

    honestly if im not mistaken 3 members both current and previous kanto e4 were at some point known team rocket members koga Lance in the main league and of the committee of gym leaders marks that up to 5 of 12 6 if you count previously associated members

    Hey proto, why does the champion still remain the champion even after you beat them the first time?
