Still think it's weird how Hoopa can summon the Pokemon that CONTROL TIME AND SPACE
Logic.
I'm the only one who wonders why rayquaza is shiny
+meteo Ldrago Yeah, right? And how did Latios and Latias megaevolve out of nowhere? And doesn't Kyurem needs a machine and Zekrom and Reshiram to change form? Why are Kyogre and Groudon on their primal forms? And most important of all, WHY IS KYOGRE FLYING?
+Heitir Bugado hoopa probably manipulated them causing them to evolve and kyogre to fly.
+meteo Ldrago possibly multiverse? It is canon in the games and Hoopa can travel between universes via rings
+Tesla_Ray_Gun21 Or maybe because Rayquaza can mega evolve without a stone and that the anime has said that Rayquaza has a strong link to Mega Evolution, being around him probably caused Latios/Latias to Mega Evolve. Not sure about Kyogre flying, though.
+StarRider88 i think that was just a result of hoopa's magic. once the dark aura disappeared kyogre plummeted to the sea.
I really wish that that whole purple destruction thing at the end of this movie wasnt such a rip-off from the Darkrai movie.
+Tim Legdeur or the black and white movie. there were a few moments where i found myself thinking "i've seen this before"
Tim Legdeur the problem with it is they state time and space are distorting
And instantly I went "PALKIA AND DIALGA THE POKEMON OF TIME AND SPACE ARE RIGHT FUCKING THERE"
I watched this movie to get some Arceus...
15 seconds of Arceus :'(
#firstworldproblems
I love the fights scenes and, weirdly enough, I love to laugh that the fact that Ash wasn't the one to guess Arceus with the necklace thing. like come on Ash, how can you forget a Pokemon that you saved it's life?
For me Hoopa is freaking adorable not has Victini but it is :3
I think Hoopa (Confined) and Celebi or Hoopa (Confined) and Jirachi make pretty cute couple together.
Another thing that's kind of related to your comment about Pikachu Thunderbolting the spacial disturbance. Palkia: "Oh look, a spacial disturbance. Maybe if I use Spacial Rend, and attack that further distorts the space around it, it will go away." What was it thinking?
This movie seriously irks me.
In the trailers, I'm 99% sure they advertised it as Primal Kyogre VS Primal Groudon VS Mega Rayquaza, with Hoopa being the cause of it. Then, they give us a big ol' middle finger.
Same thing with the absolute garbage that was the Diancie Movie. Xerneas VS Yveltal? WHEN?! They exchanged Moonblast and Oblivion Wing TWICE, then buggered off. At the last FIVE F***ING MINUTES of the movie!
So yeah, even though the Zygarde movie is saying it's Perfect Zygarde VS Volcannion, I expect it to be complete rubbish.
+Tobi of the Akatsuki They did end up removing some footage that was seen in some of the trailers, but technically Mega Rayquaza was helping Ash to stop hoopa unbound, who gained the assistance of primal groudon and kyogre.
did everyone not hate the part where Arceus showed up at the ending part of the movie and Ash forgot that he got involved with Arceus back then? I'm like "waaah? did he forget he rode on Aceus's back??"
I actually really liked the movie with decent fights. But HALF the stuff in trailer wasn't in it :/
+Usayd Tariq That's Pokemon for you- the epitome of the 'trailers lie' trope. XD
Like arceus didn't even fight
+Zakawan Malik or even notice ash even though after a few thousand years he remembers ash but five years later he can't remember wtf
+Tzer And trailer shows amost every legendary and the movie is jsut...
My only real problem was Hoopa's kiddy annoying voice.
I decided to try out the movie since everybody kept on saying its the worst pokemon movie ever.
And.....
..............
It's not that bad.
Sure it's a decent movie, but it atleast makes more sense than Pokemon 2000. The plot is good and Hoopa can be entertaining to watch (Even though it can sometimes get a bit annoying.
Other than that, I don't think it's worst. If anything, Mewtwo and Genesect is possibly worse than this movie due to its lack of continuity.
Troll Magnet no, not really.
omfg, a gay pokesins fangirl!
Chao Flaka to me, the Genesect movie is still the overall worst. I still can't watch it all the way through a second time.
I like a reviewer that looks at a product from two points of view, to see how well it does satisfying fans of the original or newcomers to the series. You did a good job on this video because you noted the good and the bad without glorifying or demonizing anything to the extreme like other reviewers. I hope I see more reviews from you!
+Pikachu Thirteen haha thank you very much. I really try to be as objective as possible, it's just sometimes nostalgia can creep in and taint some of that. Luckily I found this one to be pretty straightforward and not really play on my personal nostalgia and I'm glad that came through! :)
+RandomTens I'm okay with a nostalgic point of view, so long as the reviewer at least points out legitimate problems and complements, regardless of how the reviewer themselves looks at those parts
RandomTens no it's wrong he don't put reserch into the movies when he but the top 5 worst so why this that this gets a pass no I do isn't it should have been because number one was my favorite but you complain for the stupidest reasons ever
You are trying to get me fricken triggered
Did we get a hint , for the next mega evolution. I mean all legends of ash side have a mega but not lugia. Will we see in Gen 7 mega Lugia
First of all welcome back to the new year. Loving the new artwork and animations. Hopefully your vacation was restful and your ready for the new year. Anyways great video. Personally i loved the movie because of the fan service so i wasent disapointed. Anyways great job and keep it up.
Dude! I hope you had an excellent break and also got some much needed rest!
I'm glad to see you're still around for the new year and thanks for the awesome feedback! Here's to an amazing 2016 for the both of us!!!
What do you think of the 3 movies we've gotten since this?
Oh My, Your old video style was so good and now its 10x is not 100x better which I thought was impossible! You have truly out done yourself this year! Amazing Video Stan! Thank you for providing it!
Thank you for being a Roy! I'm really excited to see how much I can push my content in 2016! I'm also excited to see what you come up with for FE month!
Thanks man :D
What did you think of the volcanion movie and/or movie 20?
I just subscribed but i have one question. what's your nationally??
Can someone please tell me what the name of the song that Stan uses during the ranking moment?
what's the name of thr song playing during 4:20 PLEASE! i love your videos +1 sub
just one question.....WERE YOU SURPRIZED?
What I hate about this movie is that they made it as if there is more than one cosplay pikachu which Is something I cannot accept (especially since they made some of them male pikachus?? like wtf)
But to be honest every Pokemon Movie has their own universe. For this movie, the setting based on Sahara Desert. The city (Dahra City) itself resemblace Dubai which is a pun. But Hoopa itself tied to Middle East Mythology. and also Aladdin...
Is it in your top 5 and if so where?
The voice hoopa was supposed to have who's voice was that again.. i remember it but i forgot from what anime or thing it was from
I HAVE A QUESTION do you guys recommend i watch the x and y anime
yes but if you do se the subs.
yes, but only subtitles
Yes!
+Adrian Castro (SquirtleSquad) I recommend it. It's a huge steps toward black and white seasons dissapointment. However, I WILL NOT recommend the x and y MOVIES. The x and y movies just have so much to work with and it feels like it is only there for COMMERCIALS and merchandises. Just watch hoopa and the clash of ages. I feel that almost became my WORST pokemon movie.
Adrian Castro YES
Nice review! I love your channel's new look!
Thanks Retro! I can't wait to make lots more content with some of our new assets! :)
I will defend his Thunderbolt choice over Thunder. I for one will often skip Thunder in my games. Thunderbolt is already super strong 90 power and 100% accuracy. In battle when every single move matters and when ever chip means something I don't normally gamble. I take the move that I know works. Thunder can and will miss a lot. I have it for a desperate last attempt on my Raichu sure but how often I use it is rare. 90 guarantee hit or 110 with a 30% chance to miss. That's more that 1 in 4 times that the move wont work. I'll lose the 20 damage for the guarantee hit. That's just me though.
I'm new to pokemon myself but my boyfriend has been with the games,show,and movies since the beginning and we both enjoyed this movie. He can be a bit of a snob when it comes to the show and movies and almost never has anything good to say about them (unless it's the first movie) but he said and I quote "for the first time in a long time a Pokemon movie has made me laugh and had me hooked from the start. It's not on Mewtwo Strikes Back level but it was the first really good Pokemon movie in years." It may not be for everyone but we enjoyed it and hope the future movies will be at least as good if not better.
Wasn't that the shiny version of Rayquaza? I have both versions in Omega Ruby. The shiny and regular.
+Joseph Lobato yes
i actually watch this in Japanese, and the voice cast for hoopa makes it very cute, and rhe way it speak like a children who r playful, but naughty like children too, and i agree with u on the song, i like the singer voice when i listen to mahouka kokou no rettosei's 2nd ending
？
Awesome video as usual. Nice new profile picture!
Thanks Andrew! :)
:D
Gotta say, Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. Aura is an awesome concept in the Pokemon universe for one reason, and besides that, the theme was really good (can literally listen to it on InfinitLooper for hours), the setting of Rota was amazing, Lucario evolving from cold and distant to bonding with the gang, loved the tension during the scene where Lucario said Pikachu deserted Ash, and the heart wrenching scenes when Ash and his friends got swallowed by the antibodies. May have a bit of bias considering it was the only Pokemon movie I owned growing up besides the original 3, but I love it even more than the others, having now seen every Pokemon Movie.
+Sonic_the_Saiyan It's one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing your story with the film Sonic, I honestly love hearing about what these movies mean to some people!
This movie kinda was like the doctor who episode "the curse of fenric" with an ancient evil from a bottle
Ash's Pikachu doesn't know thunder anymore. It was replaced by volt tackle which was then replaced by electro ball.
+Zach Galer (Zlectricute) I don't like how they had to begin limiting Pokemon in the anime to four moves like they did in the games. Why can't Pikachu know every move it used to know, and don't even get me started on why they replaced Pikachu's SIGNATURE MOVE, Volt Tackle, with freaking Electro Ball.
+Zach Galer (Zlectricute) Haha that's my bad. I haven't watched the actual series in quite some time and just assumed it was the same as when I used to watch. It's honestly good to know though!
The only thing that really bothered me in the movie was the voice that they used for unbound Hoopa. I didn't mind the voice they used when he was in his confined state, but I can't stand that voice for unbound Hoopa.
Pokemon Heroes was my favorite Pokemon movie. Also the Shaymin one was good cause it sucked (that makes sense pls)
Both good choices!
For completely different reasons kek.
Dude, you haven't looked at movie 19! And Movie 20 should be on DVD soon.
Meh I honestly don't care for Pokémon movies now they focus way to much on what ever legendary they are trying to promote and not developing and having conflict in the main cast.
+Matt Murray I honestly feel that the last legitimately GOOD Pokemon movie was Arceus and the Jewel of Life. After that, the Pokemon movies started to suck.
+Matt Murray exactly. Which is the reason I hate hoopa and BS now.
@@AnimeMetalFan1 haha that too was horrible
gen 3 in depth review please
I went into this film knowing that it was going to be allot like Pokemon 2000 with the film being a spectacle with so many other legendary pokemon in one film.
Sure it is not perfect but still a good movie for younger pokemon fans who like to see many legendary pokemon they hardly ever see in the series.
Also team rocket try to steal the lamp that is perhaps one rare thing for a Pokemon film that was nice to see.
x&y era is my favorite generation in the series soo im glad the x&y movies have a fun unique story to them
do a mario sunshine review
and if there should be a mario sunshine 2
if you watch Naruto can you do review on the movies ?
Can you do a top ten pokemon movies
Another Movie? I thought there were Just 17?
Man... I can never keep these things strait.
+Noah & Toad Haha it's really not your fault. Imagine how brutal it was when I pledged to watch them all back to back one weekend!
This big hoopa is late lugia back to the sea
One thing that is great about this movie is that Ash actually agnowlaged Arceus Jewel of Life by thinking that he saw the rings on Arceusis back before
But you would think he would remember the time he went back in time and saved the GOD of pokemon
Did Hoopa say Alehooparing in the original drafts?
I really hoped they explained Hoopa's powers a bit more. Like he literally comes out and starts controlling the gods of multiple regions. Not even Arceus had the power to do that. You don't just get power like that without some explanation. But of course, it seems like a general trend that legendaries get stronger as the franchise continues.
+Tiexiao Wang Being that it is the mischief pokemon and can distort space with it's rings, it has immense power with its out-of-control unbound form. Not all legendaries get stronger, as the other gen 6 legendaries may not stand a chance against hoopa unbound in my opinion, but I think for this movie, they made a very powerful one at that. Now I believe Arceus still has more power over any pokemon including hoopa unbound, but he merely created the other god pokemon (only being Palkia, Dialga, and Giratina) and being able to distort space, hoopa was able to control them. That's my take on it, though let me know if there's anything that may be wrong with it.
bsd616xd I mean I know it is the mischief pokemon and all, but the controllers of time and space and antimatter and the creator the land and the ocean controller by... a genie of mischief? Something just doesn't sound right about that. They could explain why Hoopa had such control over time and space, so much that the lords of time and space can be controlled by him in contrast. Like maybe he is from hyperspace, or another universe, or something like that would have been great. I agree that not all pokemon gets stronger by the generation, but as time goes on, it is a general trend. Arceus definitely has more raw power, but he can't mind control. IMO, mind controlling your opponent is preferable to just beating them down.
Tiexiao Wang My only thought is that since it is so hard to control, hoopa unbound seems to be using all of it's power to destroy this city and by being able to grab absolutely anything with its rings, it's able to control whatever comes through as it comes through. Seeing that hoopa unbound has the same 680 base stat total as dialga, palkia, and giratina, I actually believe it. Now if it was hoopa confined, I'd see an issue.
bsd616xd Exactly. It just seems strange that a power of this magnitude just seems to... exist. The others at least had an explanation: they were gods made by the creator to control one aspect of the universe. We can assume similar for Groudon and Kyogre. But the origins of Hoopa's power, its creation, was never explained and I wish they did that.
+Tiexiao Wang the series continually reveals new history every generation. Before arceus, everyone believed mew was the oldest Pokemon, being the origin of all species. While true, we didn't know there were the gods that created mew. Hopefully gen 7 will continue exploring the origins of gen 6, as it is highly speculated that gen 7 will connect to gen 6. It wouldn't be the first time we went back to older Pokemon to talk about their origins.
My favorite movie id Darkrai PURELY because of nostalgia and the ending song I'll always remember you but there are few others also that are pretty good
+Omen Strike Yep! darkrai is one of my favorites as well. I'll probably do a review of it at some point in the next few months!!!
+RandomTens awesome I find cool that your one of the only UA-camrs who actually respond to your comments (positively)!
Rayquaza mega is my personal favorite.
ALLE-HOOPA-RING! Nice review, would love to see more like this for everything Pokémon.
Thanks Fernando! I'm considering doing a review of the Celebi/Darkrai films if this one goes over well enough!
+fernando98322 Hoopa's catchphrase just won't get out of my head. The way it said it, so catchy!
Were you suprised?
Flying Kyogre. Enough said.
+Heitir Bugado hoopa used psychic powers to make kyogre fly
+Heitir Bugado Water types fly in all the games.
Pokemon the rise of Darkrai (the 10th movie) is my favorite.
03:20 Mega Rayquaza has an ability that weakens ice type moves. Nothing in the game is ×4 effective against Mega Rayquaza.
Oh seriously!? I didn't know delta boost did that, I honestly just thought it made other weather moves fail completely. If that's the case, Mega Rayquaza's even more amazing then I thought!
Thanks for letting me know btw, a lot of the time I think I've learned almost everything about this series. So I honestly love it when I find something new out about the franchise. :)
+RandomTens :)
in one scene I was like
THEY USED REAL SAND REALLY?
I stopped watching the anime a while back
But I'm lovin the new style!
+superugly18 Thank you sir! I also haven't really watched the show siince probably the original advanced days, but I try to make it a habit of at least watching the movies every few years!!!
Also I'm loving that you're loving the new style. You know i always trust your opinion haha!
Love the thumbnail. Riolu is my favorite pkmn.
Somebody in my class recommended the serie x and y and this movie to me, I was surpised at how good I found this movie especiallt ghe action scenes and now the serie is one of my favourites, I stopped watching because I didn't like black and white that much
the rise of darkrai
I didn't like this one. It just felt like another bland Pokemon movie despite it's potential.
Now do Volcanion
The last Pokemon film I genuinely liked was the 14th one- all the rest of them afterwards just don't catch my interest. I tried to watch this one, but I just couldn't. And the English dubs cutting out about a third of each film since 15 just makes it worse (it's why I buy the manga adaptations- at least they're complete). For some reason the best ones for me are the two, three, eight, and the DP trilogy, mainly since I personally think they're the best written. The newer ones are TOO standard and formulaic, even by Pokemon standards.
+Luna D (MoonlightMillennium) I really love all of those films as well! I'm really hoping they manage to pull off something special with the new Volcanion one coming later this year! :)
RandomTens I hope so- the movie's have been feeling so generic it'd be nice to see a change.
One hoop to rule them all, One hoop to find them,
One hoop to bring them all and in the darkness catch them
In the Land of kalos where the pokèmon live.
I feel dirty now, brb gonna go take a shower
That was so beautiful I may shed hobbit-sized tears.
I think it's clear what must happen now.
OddSauce 4 President!!!!
RandomTens my campaign is going to promote free cancer for everybody
OddSauce you spelled Pokémon wrong the line goes the other way ;D
God Hoopa was annoying in this film, the only character that really turned me off from this film. But I do think the movie was pretty good as a whole. I LOVED the fighting in the movie, it was my favorite for this one.
the ending song reminded me of "bigger" animes kinda like Sword Art Online & SAO II, I don't know how, that's just what I got lol
but as always another great video guys!
+Devin Long Thanks as always Devin and I would say we both pretty much felt the same about this one! Although I may have liked Hoopa just a bit more than you :P
RandomTens I can agree to that lol
I just thought the voice kept getting progressively more annoying between both forms of Hoopa, but mainly 'regular' (small) Hoopa tbh.
Thanks for the review. After watching your review I think I will go watch it. My favorite movie is probably the 3rd movie!
Nice choice! I will say that Hoopa doesn't even hold a candle to Entei's film, but it's apathetically solid if you have some spare time!
Thanks for the comment! :)
+ArtsyAllAround Mine too. I think it's the most mature of them, and I just love the story and characters.
Maybe because im ok with Hoppa , so I like this movie
Or dvd and bluray
since pokemon mewtwo strikes back and Pokémon: The Movie 2000 , pokemon movies have being the same shit ,yeah it's good to watch but always the same plot
I won't get into why I believe this to be the worst pokemon movie so far but I actually like the old voice of Hoopa MUCH more than the annoying one they ended up using. :/
WHERE YOU SURPRISED?
Am I the only one who dislikes mega evolution?
+rijntjedevos1 depends on who's evolving. some of them are really stupid
why latios didnt he die
The Latios in this movie is different from the one in pokemon heroes. Same with Latias.
SkyWãlkìñ 777 at the end, we see a Latias with 2 Latios
Review Volcanion
Hoopa is my favorite Pokemon
*Mikeymonkey207's Rating Of Stuff*
Meh / 10
OR
6.5 / 10
Assuming there are big spoilers, I'll skip this video. It'll earn a like as always though :)
+Wouter Céphas Haha man I love you sometimes Wouter! Thanks for the support and I'm hoping to see you around next video! :)
RandomTens you're welcome, till the next one! :)
This movie was honestly my least favorite movie, and only because modern pokemon seems to have little to no connection to what it once was. For example, in pokemon heroes Latios dies, but now somehow Latios is back?? Unless Hoopa called upon a Latios from a different time period (similar to what happened in Pokemon 4ever), that wouldn't make sense. Also, in Pokemon the Movie 2000 (my favorite movie btw), Lugia could speak(telepathically, of course), but now all of a sudden it can't??? I know that these are just tiny things, but they're also important. The plot was also incredibly dry with incredibly dry characters. The only good thing about this movie besides it's animation were the fight scenes. The fight scenes were intense and didn't feel like a filler much to me. This movie, in my opinion, would be ranked a D rather than a B. It would have been nice if Pokemon could at least keep a set storyline, but after the way they butchered Mewtwo's backstory, I highly doubt they can.
+Silence Is Surreal A common misconception is that there is only one of every legendary pokemon, when that is false. Legendary pokemon are just pokemon that are way more rare than the common pokemon, and have more power. At one point in history, there were plenty of mew in existence, but since then have died out since the evolution of newer pokemon. We saw more than one celebi in the fourth movie, a shiny rayquaza was seen in this one (obviously not the same as the normal rayquaza we've seen), a mewtwo in the genesect movie was obviously not the same as the first movie mewtwo, etc. As you mentioned dry characters, I remembered back to the hoopa special when we got a look at baraz and meray as kids, giving them more substance than what we've seen, and of course we get to know the main characters over the course of the main anime.
bsd616xd I am aware that there are more than one legendary pokemon in existence. However, we've seen more than one celebi only once and that was in pokemon the movie 4ever, but technically it was the same celebi, but from different time periods. I do believe I mentioned that previously. Also, just because you gave characters a back story doesn't make them any less of a dry character. They had little to no personality. The way they said things seemed scripted instead of emotional. It was dry. Nothing grabbed your attention. The Hoopa movie did a horrible job on consistancy. The movie was not completely horrible, but as far as storyline and substance go, it ranks a D at best. It wasn't extremely bad, but it wasn't great either.
Silence Is Surreal You still tried to work out why there was a latios when one died in pokemon heroes. That's what I was referring to when I said there's more than one of each legendary. But your review is your opinion so I can't argue with that.
I still think Hoopa is a silly name for a Pokemon
Well it's not too clever. But I do think it's still better than calling a seal Pokemon Seel lol!
Thanks for watching btw!!!
I thought latios died....
+Dagamingod 628 this was a latios from another dimension remember. hoopa opens portals,
+Dagamingod 628 The Latis aren't unique like some of the other legendaries.
IM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO THINKS THE MOVIE IS RELLY GREAT
No
All spoilers
>''Stankan''
bro
It's an inside joke BB ;)
This movie seems not to good after watching clips and reviews AND HOOPA with are you surprised IS SO ANNOYING!!!
Spoilers!!!
Am i the only one that thinks Rayquaza destroyed them all? And why in the name of waffles is it shiny.
I think all xy movies are bad
Clips sub spanish :D thx
Team rocket the Best
They're always so insignificant in these newer movies. I wish they could help just a little more, but I suppose time restraints and what not need to be kept in mind.
Still though, I did enjoy Meowth's "wish" sequence!
+RandomTens they bad guys
2nd also great vid
Thanks dude! :)
+RandomTens no problem 😀
FIRST COMMENT
Lol IGN wannabe. Just kidding so not put mean comments.
Hoopa and the trash of ages
hoopa is annoying af!
