WHAT IS BLAINE'S BEST POSSIBLE TEAM? Gym Leader Blaine's Evolution In The Pokémon Games [TRUE POWER]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- Blaine, the Fire type Gym Leader of Cinnabar Island in Kanto, is stronger than we thought. It's time to look at his evolution in the main series Pokemon games and construct his strongest & best team by looking at all of Blaine's Pokemon and all battles in the timeline from Kanto, Johto, Unova, and beyond!
Leading into Pokémon Sword & Shield and with Pokemon Masters release, it's important to know how strong the trainers we've seen in the series are. We're going to take a look at Gym Leaders, Rivals, Elite 4 Members, Champions, etc. and figure out their TRUE POWER.

The Gym leaders could use some mega stones. Badly.
Tech Romancer if gamefreak doesn’t give them mega stones Silph can’t
Actually did u forget about his camerupt at level 57 which can be used wisely for rock type which do ×2 to all his pokemon and ×4 to his charizard?
Funny how Moltres saved Blane’s life when it’s Articuno’s job to save people who are lost in the cold mountains. But I guess it had a day off from work that day.
plus Articuno lives at the Seafoam Islands, not Moltres lol
Über Kirbeeh I’m guessing Blaine got lost at MT silver you can find Moltres there in heart gold and soul silver if I remember correctly
Nazeer Sadek Or even Mt Ember in the Sevii Islands
vaporterra ya but according to what Silph said about being lost in a freezing mountain that only fits MT silver
Articuno was too busy visiting Sinnoh.
So Moltres saved his life? I didn't know about this. I learn so much while watching these videos.
Very glad to hear that!! Beyond making these a list of the trainers' 6 best Pokemon, I want to explore their personalities & experiences more thoroughly; I'm glad you found it valuable :D
Yeah I think a Trainer in his Gym say it to you after you beat him.
You gotta check out the Manga! It is so good.
He was a scientist that worked on the Mewtwo project.
Agreed, I watch these videos more for the Pokemon lore and game history than I do the end team.
Says JELLEL!
From the lore, to the nostalgic analysis of the trainers teams, to the formation of their best team, this will always be my favorite series. thank you for all the content silph
I really love how you not only focus on their best team but also their lore and personality, im playing pokemon masters and i glad that all the characters kept their personality and backstory even if is not a main series game
ice dog me too I also PKMN Masters
Fun fact, in the long-running pokemon adventures manga, Blaine does create mewtwo. Actually, the given reason that mewtwo looks more humanoid than mew is because mewtwo is part human. Blaine used his own DNA for the creation of mewtwo, and with some psychic shenanigans, they're linked, meaning if one takes damage, the other does as well. Also, mewtwo was created by team rocket in this canon, since Blaine was a scientist working for them during that time, though he ended up having a change of heart because of red. I recently reread the gen 1 manga, so this stuff is fresh on my mind.
I like how in the manga half of the gym leaders are affiliated with team rocket
I was about to type this!! Thank you. The people need to know. *Salutes with a giant spoon*
The manga is a separate entity from the games but it’s still a cool adaptation of the Pokémon universe
@@edra3118 Surge, Koga and Sabrina being Rocket agents was way more interesting than what we got in the canon games
The Kanto Gym Leaders are arguably the most memorable and enduring gym leaders in the Pokemon series:
The games (including Pokemon Stadium & Pokemon Puzzle League), TCG, Anime/Manga, the remakes, etc.
I disagree but okay
Amethyst Maelstorm Pokemon Stadium
You must have a very shallow opinion of the other regions gym leaders. Not to say they aren’t memorable, but I got excited as a kid to see Sinnoh leaders like C.Wake in Johto in HG/SS
Nightlord14 That set of gym leaders are cool too but Kanto’s involvement in the Johto games and having the most remakes allow us to get to know the Kanto leaders the most
11:37 Not sure if it was intentional but great touch that Blaine "turns his back" to his honorable mentions.
The only beauty that *steels* my heart and the girl that showed us the power of the Steel type Pokemon.
What is Jasmine's True Power?
Did she really stole your heart
Your editing is getting better. Fire entrance is great.
Jasmine should be next
would his Charizard not be level 62 as in the Kanto Leaders Tournament his Charizard knows Inferno which in Gen 5 he can only learn through level up
That's pretty cool. In my mind it will be at 62.
Unfortunately Charmander can learn Inferno as early as 46 and Charmeleon as early as 54 in Gen 5, so it's best we assume on the lower end to be safe (around Level 56, where most of his other Pokemon seem to be). Good catch, though, it very well could be around 62!
@@SilphSpectre my mistake, thanks for clearing that up
Do you plan on battling with these teams again? I'm genuinely only subbed for this series but with the expectation that you'll battle with these "best gym teams" you make.
Lore: *exists*
Me: M I N D B L O W N
Jasmine next please!
Oh where doin joghto ok
Jasmine
Hope you bought some burn heals
BURN HEAL😂
I always imagine he says that quote with a shit eating grin
Great video like always 😁 really loved the lure at the beginning. For the next video you can either finish the Kanto leaders with janine or jump into Johto with jasmine
I hope Janine can be the next one, as the last Kanto Gym Leader
Still needs erika
@@abledevila3218 already done
@@xmagicxdreamx just saw it lol my bad
I love these videos. I want to see a best team tournament, maybe with some battles set to level 100.
The thought of Leon battling Lance or Maylene battling Blaine...I'd love to see that.
Keep up the awesome content.
It was so cool to see my comment, thanks blaine was awesome keep it up.
Dang, I think gen 1's gym leaders have the best lore in the franchise.. awesome vid as always!! Happy Holidays everyone!
I'm honestly confused, I could of sworn that I read somewhere that Blaine also used to be on the Elite Four
Adam Hanson that doesn’t ring a bell for me if you remember where you read that please let me know
You might be mistaking Blaine for Koga, who moved from Fuchsia Gym Leader to Elite Four in Gen 2.
Love all these new animations man!
Great detective work dude! Loved it
everyone's talking about jasmine to finish kanto, but lowkey I wanna see falkner given that his team would be a tad ridiculous given he could have a lugia and a zapdos. Not bad for bird boy
Damn, this is actually a very well put together team.
Blaine: I've lived on this island, long before the lab was built!
Red: Ok Boomer.
Fire good. I still come back and watch these. I'm looking forward to Blaine VS.
Never knew about Moltres role in his life. Thanks for the info, learned a lot of things about Blaine watching this video.
I hope you're going to do Red next!
A Trainer in his gym tells you it also if you beat him^^
@@Acacius1992 oooh I will talk more with trainers from now on, ahah
@@Tiut No Problem^^
I love these videos. Im always looking forward to seeing more 👍
Ah the classic dart board with red string bit, love it. :D
"Blaine is known to be quite an intelligent man..."
Blaine: *Uses a Super Potion on his Arcanine before it even gets hit*
I love that Video!
Also awesome use of ace attorney music ;3
Yes thank you! Merry Christmas to you sir. Now on to Gen 2
You are actually correct about Blaine having something to do with creating Mewtwo because in the Pokemon area and Blue manga, it says that Blaine used to work with Team Rocket, and when he was working with them, Mewtwo needed some human DNA, so because he gave Mewtwo some DNA, they are able to share thoughts
You know what I just thought, I’m surprised you don’t include Pokémon Stadium Gym teams.
Liking it cause it was posted on my b-day :3 cool to see how far this series has come. I remember watching the Brock one while I was in the hospital.
Oh boy, my comment is there. Told ya it was going to be lit
Hope to see more battling with that teams! Great video, great team!
SilphSpectre: "which are of course remakes of Pokémon Yellow"
Everybody else: "No, they're really not"
How?
@@perry-1572 Let's Go! is set years after the events of Red/Blue/Yellow shown with Red and Blue being much older, the fact that you don't even play as Red is another reason shown with Red actually being encountered within the game. Let's Go! is a sequel at the very most to Yellow, definitely not a remake.
Awesome video keep up the good work 👍 I would be interested to see what the best team for a villain might be. We've seen multiple big bad guys over the years and some of them have had some pretty solid teams
Super Luck he already did Giovanni so it’s not far fetched that he does another as long as they appear in multiple games
Once again your work is amazing and keeps amazing me
His team sure is heated!
PS I think Glacia should have her True Power revealed!
If you read the Pokémon Adventures manga, (if you haven't, do so immediately) you'll see that he did indeed create Mewtwo. This occurred while he was working for team rocket.
Love these vids!!!!! Ur killin it!!!!!!
Appreciate you!
Do Wallace next!
I have been playing pokemon since blue and red came out and i never knew about the questions in the gym. I always just fought the trainers. Wow haha
You know, it's funny... even though Blaine's signature Pokemon is Arcanine... people remember him for his Magmar... mainly cause of the anime... but the looks people remember for him are from the games rather than the design of the anime (though the anime used his original design since it seems that Blaine's design was modified pretty late in development, and the anime was too late to the party for that).
The next one I wish to see is Wallace, the Gym Leader who became a Champion and is a contest star.
Y’all need to read the manga cause THATS WHERE ITS AT
Not going to spoil anything, but he has a... Special relationship with Mewtwo to say the least.
Oh and Mewtwo fights with a giant spoon sword.
And entei (btw I’ve read all of them so spoilers don’t matter to me)
Manga blaine is a beast
Facts. I found the best damn Pokemon game I've ever played. If any of you like the manga, you should look into "Pokemon Red Adventure Chapter." Its literally the story of the manga with some extra stuff to extend the game of course. You literally start as Red with a Poliwag and have Poliwhirl by the time you get Bulbasaur. Its excellent. You can even get hidden abilities for any of them. Chlorophyll for Bulbasaur being quite important. The Pikachu learns SURF by level up and has the Speed Boost ability. The Eevee that can freely switch between forms IS playable as well, and you can control what form. You can freely evolve him between ANY of the existing forms as opposed to the original 3. As well as ALL THE POSSIBLE OTHER TYPES THAT DON'T EXIST.
Once again excellent job! This now finish kanto off with Janine's true power!
Torkoal - stealth rock, rapid spin, lava plume, earth power
Didn't Blaine put Mewtwo DNA in his arm in the manga?
Benji Baakar ya he did
Honourable Mentions:
Pokémon Stadium 1: Clefable & Kangaskhan
Pokémon Stadium 1 Rematch: Tangela, Chansey & Parasect
Pokémon Stadium 2: Parasect & Octillery
Pokémon Stadium 2 Rematch: Chansey, Clefable, Mr Mime, Vileplume & Moltres
Would love to see the Gen 2 gym leaders in 2020. Up next, my all time Flying-type gym leader, Falkner!
If I’m not mistaken, in Pokemon Adventures, (the main manga series) Blaine *was* used in the creation of Mewtwo because the scientists needed his DNA to complete Mewtwo. Because of this, he began to degenerate but he could track Mewtwo down to Cerulean Cave.
Then he gave Red the Master Ball, had Arcanine use Fire Spin to protect Red from Mewtwo for a bit, then Red had his starters and Snorlax attack it to distract while Pikachu threw the Master Ball and Mewtwo was caught. I don’t think Blaine died after that.
I’d like to think that when the volcano erupts Blaines arcanine dies during the chaos trying to save him which is why he has his arcinine is gone after the eruption
Fun fact I didn't know you can quiz in this gym at first so I just battle them btw it was on the remakes
this video : exists
gen 7 ninetales : hey.
What else wants to see reds true power
Coming soon ;)
@@SilphSpectre Let's go!
Blaine has a Mewtwo in the Manga, that confirms his involvement with the experiments
Full Power of Falkner would be cool to see
I liked that Blaine in the anime refused to just give Ash a badge and made him beat him for it.
Now we just need the Kanto Elite 4 and Red, and we make the ultimate challenge.
Please do janine or red!!!!! 🙏🏻
If i remember correctly in the manga mew2 was made from blaine's dna
You’re gonna need more than a few Burn Heals to face off against Blane
You haven't still covered all the Kanto leaders. How big is Janine's (Koga's Daughter) true power?
Let's see the Jasmine's true power next!
What about Falkner? He is the top tier of Pidgeottos.
Janine! To Round Out The gym leaders of Kanto
Im noticing your using a lot more Ace Attorney music lately, GG my man, love that series
Blaine's lore op; A very interesting trainer~
But his team.. idk- he needs more spicy to it
There is some poetic irony in that Blaine helped create Mewtwo and that he recently beat Sabrina (who has a Mewtwo)
On Red And Blue I would get the answers wrong so I could battle every trainer in the Gym
i never knew the backstory of blaine wow
Would love to hear of the first bane/babe of my Pokemon experience, Claire the dragon master!
One of the best gym leader in the anime. He is all interesting.
I feel good about this one 😎
He needs that Mega Charizard Z on his team.
I’m impressed that Nintendo has a better storyline in Pokémon than the Zelda franchise lmao like everything is perfectly set up like “the volcano is active today”
I think it's time for Wallece
Your video says Blaine, but your music says Enialb.
Id love to see some Sinnoh trainers!
Shame you don't include the manga, Entie and Mewtwo would be great additions
Please continue next with the Johto gym leaders!! Whitney is the only exception I think
Pls do Red’s true power!
Claire’s True Power, when?
Aww, a little tiny houndoom at 11:40
Let’s get some Sinnoh up in here with Volkner
Saaay... what about the Mewtwo he has in the Adventures manga?
Can we start the elite four now?
How good were Lorelei or Bruno actually?
This isn't False Swipe Gaming lol
He's one of my favorites, also his team would be somewhat my team if i were to be a pkmn trainer! I love fire types and once i wrote HQs based on pkmn. Vulpix was my starter and i made my way to be a gym leader through some fun adventures like in the anime... I can only imagine that as an official canon, how cool would that be? ❤️
Can we do Falkner next? I really like Flying types.
Please do Clair next!!!!
E4 Drake from Hoenn.
I would like to see Agatha or Bruno featured.
As far as the next true power, I'd like to see Burgh or Drake. That aside however I'm yes and no surprised that Magmar didn't make the cut. My logic behind this is: A. what's the point of Magmar if Magmortar is already there? B. If Magmar isn't running eviolite as the held item, then it's more logical to have Magmortar anyway in the first place.
What is Ash Ketchum's best possible team? The process of determining it would be a bit different, can't really see his Pokemon's levels but analyzing their individual feats and finding their place in competitive play would be a possibility
Strange that the quiz thing wasnt used for any psychic type gym
True power of crasher wake
