Are you serious?!?! You literally rant about shell arms but want a shark that’s supposed to go fast to have AN ANCHOR TAIL?!?! You just ruined your entire argument!!
Speed Boost Basha-mo/Blaziken does not need to Mega Evolve. Nitro Charge/Flame Charge will up its speed, and the Speed Boost Hidden Ability will up its speed, giving it a 2-up on its speed.
With Soul so much, Mega Evolutions are so cool. They’re the hypest thing to happen to Pokemon by far, G-Max forms are alright and Paradox Pokemon are great, but nothing else comes close.
Those early Kalos leaks saying there would be a Fairy Gym second and a Fighting Gym fourth... it makes me wonder if they had intended to put a Fairy-type gym around Camphrier Town. The gap between Viola and Grant is large for early game, so maybe that's where Valerie would have been at one point before they moved her to later on.
Yeah, that makes sense. I like it how it is though, cause it gives you time to establish a full team. You get your second starter, fossils, cave systems, Honedge, the eevees, etc. Kalos may be stupid easy, but the variety of pokemon was top notch.
By the time of generation 5 and 6 I had discovered jazz cabbage and that was my downfall, I remember one day after a good session someone showed me the mega evolutions!! That was pretty crazy
As someone who’s Audino’s biggest hater, mega Audino is a bit more of an improvement lol. Its colors are at least better looking, but I can’t believe Rayquaza didn’t make it to S tier😭. I thought like for sure mega Rayquaza was a guaranteed S tier😂
@@lipika2841 personally I disagree, something about Audino I just don’t like. Maybe it’s the proportions but I can’t quite put my finger on it. However it’s not as offensive as the Lickitung line, those I really don’t like.
Do you remember the old SwSh leak about armored evolutions and wooden horse and metal snake legendaries? Zacian Crowned is true, Miraidon is true. Maybe we're yet to get wooden horse and armored Mewtwo
hello hidden power, dusty i don’t know if it’s you and if your seeing this then i would like to know if you also have seen my first message to hidden power or if it’s just the three of you. also on this i understand you did your ranking on the pokemon from the kalos region and now you did your ranking of the phenomenons from kalos, mega evolution ranking and that leads me to wonder what are you gonna do after you rank the alola pokemon from that region maybe the galar pokemon after or do the phenomenons in alola z crystals then z moves, just a thought then finally the galar then galar’s phenomenon gigantamax pokemon next thought and since i know you already did the paldea pokemon i guess rank the what the terastalize types for what they look on top of the pokemon’s heads? i just understand ranking videos and there very good and evertime when i see them i also like to rank them in what tiers they would go to me as well and also everytime i see the rankings i kinda see what makes me laugh, lol’s i’m just having a grand old time seeing what i’m seeing and enjoying what makes you guys funny, hidden power is so much fun and that makes me want to be apart of what makes hidden power awesome. can’t wait for alola or if i’m there, imagine how much fun you’re going to have with me especially in future ranking episodes, can’t wait for then and from gary’s impression smell ya later!
Pidgeot is amazing but no bird is better than Corviknight in my opinion. I don’t think I’ll ever like a regional bird more than Corviknight. And the fact that we still don’t have baby Kangas as a Pokémon is funny.
The similarity between Mega and Digimon has always been there for me. But with that said, new Pokemon forms are cool. The lore behind Mega is awesome. But as a battle gimmick, it wasn't for me. I would love to see the forms brought back with Gigantamax in a Paradox type of form, to keep them around permanently without the battle gimmick. Tie it into the lore somehow.
Gigantamax designs are so much better than Megas to me - they had a clear theme and philosophy: bigness, where as these things just get spikes and scary faces. All the Pokemon with Mega and Gigantamax forms look better when Gigantamax’d
Dusty has hot takes and hypocritical when it comes to designs and lore. Mega charizard cant fly huh. Well look at dudrio has no wings and can learn fly
My Takes for what their worth S - Beedrill, Pidgeot, Blaziken. A - Charizard Y, Gardevoir, Aggron, Sceptile, Swampert, Metagross. B - Legendary Pokemon, their fine some F - ALL NONE THIRD STAGE POKEMON, it means they will now never evolve unless they get regional forms. screwing them over for good, well done game freak. I HATE mega's and i hope in the remakes of X and Y they RECON them out and just have these Pokemon evolve. Do it for Stage 2 (3rd Stage) Pokemon, Give them new forms awesome, but don't screw over Pokemon who need to Evolve. It's the WORST battle gimmick, Vmax was better, Tera is better, Z-moves weren't great but with open team sheets i think it could have been fine.
Dusty has the WORST arguments /takes is just L after L 😂😂😂 I've watched like 15 of their tier lists in the last 2 weeks and everytime it gets worst and worst.
I hate wasps Beedrill looks like a cicada hunter wasp and I hate it I'm like God why God why!!!?!?! Get it away I want to crush it it brings out the darkness in me... Bug Pokemon 🤮 I only like a few bugs like bees and ladybugs, mega Pinsir 🤮.... Mega Scizor is S tier so is mega heracross
Beedrill actually reminds me of "leaf cutter bees" - I only discovered these guys last year when I noticed what I thought was a wasp, cutting out a little circle in a leaf in my yard. Turns out they use little pieces of leaves as a "door" for the burrows they create in old wood. Anyway, I just thought that was cute. 😂 I typically have Misty-like reactions to bug Pokémon too lol
Ngl kinda hated the Megas and every gimmick sinse some of the designs are cool but I just dislike the fact they revert back after battle I wish they were more like regional forms etc
- the anime doesn't count. It's like a joke. - u don't count. You're a joke 🤣 This ranking is the opposite of Gen6 ranking. I had a lot of agreements with y'all & it felt like I was nodding to atleast 1 of you 3's takes, except for: - Beedrill is S - Scizor is A: it's good & not a downgrade. Cuz the regular version of it is your favourite, makes it so that the expectations for its mega form would be sky-high & those werent met for yall. - Swampert is a buffed man, so it's not better than the regular. You're being a hypocrite Soul.
I'm with Dusty on Zard Y, it's literally just an overdesigned Charizard, more spikes, messier wings, arm wings that do nothing. Though it at least looks cool enough in a vacuum, Mega Venusaur is overdesigned with random pointless shit AND is just plain ugly lol
Mega evolutions were a huge disappointment. First, only select few pokemon got the special treatment, while the rest of them got nothing. Gigantamax at least had a universal alternative in form of Dynamax. Second, mega designs were so much different from regular formes, it was hard to comprehend that those were just temporary transformations. And, finally, it's just so sad they gave us those cool new megas, but we can't have our Charizard, Mewtwo or whatever to look like that permanently. In that sense Gigantamax was a lot better, cos its formes were much closer to the originals, and I doubt anyone wants their pokemon to be big all the time. And I love how Gigantamax fit perfectly in Galarian stadium entertainment culture. Still my favorite gimmick even after broken Terastall.
Are you serious?!?! You literally rant about shell arms but want a shark that’s supposed to go fast to have AN ANCHOR TAIL?!?! You just ruined your entire argument!!
We need a water gym leader who's catchphrase is "You bout to get..super soaked!" lmao!
Kasumi's phrase "My policy is offensive with Water-type Pokémon" is still cool.
Or how about "evaporate w Scald."
I love waking up to 3 adults arguing over art XD very enjoyably
Dude the debates in this one are hillarious. Lumi says your a bad person cause soul doesn't like heracross lol love this
Lumi and Soul in the beginning: cohesion, agreement, same wave length. Best friends forever
Lumi and Soul getting to mega heracross: mortal enemies 😂
Why does Camerupt go from looking like Eeyore to looking like Homer Simpson 😭😭
Speed Boost Basha-mo/Blaziken does not need to Mega Evolve. Nitro Charge/Flame Charge will up its speed, and the Speed Boost Hidden Ability will up its speed, giving it a 2-up on its speed.
43seconds, the fastest Ive ever clicked on a video.
PLEASE be kind to my boy Charizard!
Love your ranking videos guys, I think you're really entertaining! Are you gonna rank the rest of the gens??
Of course!
Great discussion fellas, this was super fun to watch
I love how this aged now that we are getting mega evolutions back with Pokemon ZA just around the corner
Watching this now after pokemon presents and I didn’t even know the Legends Z-A logo got leaked until seeing this video😂
With Soul so much, Mega Evolutions are so cool. They’re the hypest thing to happen to Pokemon by far, G-Max forms are alright and Paradox Pokemon are great, but nothing else comes close.
Also Mega Charizard Y is the better one imo, that discussion was very funny though lol.
Yes Lumi! That's exactly how I pictured battles for the first 5 generations.
Best part of my Thursdays right here. Gotta say... didn't think I'd get flipped off by Mega Mewtwo X this early 😂🤣
Those early Kalos leaks saying there would be a Fairy Gym second and a Fighting Gym fourth... it makes me wonder if they had intended to put a Fairy-type gym around Camphrier Town. The gap between Viola and Grant is large for early game, so maybe that's where Valerie would have been at one point before they moved her to later on.
Yeah, that makes sense. I like it how it is though, cause it gives you time to establish a full team. You get your second starter, fossils, cave systems, Honedge, the eevees, etc. Kalos may be stupid easy, but the variety of pokemon was top notch.
Alakazam is a reference to glass so if it moves at all it bones will break due to it having no muscles the immobile pose is part of it character
By the time of generation 5 and 6 I had discovered jazz cabbage and that was my downfall, I remember one day after a good session someone showed me the mega evolutions!! That was pretty crazy
Yall never look up unite artwork I think the mewtwo megas have some great art work
First and only time I was impressed by Mewtwo C’s design
Especially the drip for Pokémon in that game hits 😌👌
As someone who’s Audino’s biggest hater, mega Audino is a bit more of an improvement lol. Its colors are at least better looking, but I can’t believe Rayquaza didn’t make it to S tier😭. I thought like for sure mega Rayquaza was a guaranteed S tier😂
Why do u hate Audino? Design wise it's just better than Chansey in every way.
@@lipika2841 personally I disagree, something about Audino I just don’t like. Maybe it’s the proportions but I can’t quite put my finger on it. However it’s not as offensive as the Lickitung line, those I really don’t like.
Mega Gallade in S tier, I can die happy!
Hidden Power! LFG!!
Edit: Dusty is a stupid cannon
I disliked Soul’s stubbornness with his picks, but when I agree with him I find it hilarious. He’s an immovable object. 😂😂😂
The 0's on camerupt are meant to be like the branding on a cow.
I miss the Megas sooooo much 🥲
I've watched all of y'all's ranking vids, and someone needs to take over the googling from ole dusty
and maybe a moderator who times how long y'all spend on each mon and pings y'all with how long you've spent or to move along
Do you remember the old SwSh leak about armored evolutions and wooden horse and metal snake legendaries? Zacian Crowned is true, Miraidon is true. Maybe we're yet to get wooden horse and armored Mewtwo
Mega khangaskhan is an F. Makes no sense. It ages the baby then reverts back. So dumb

You know that Digimon Adventures 02 had the Armored Digi evolution gimmick
Is that what you think when you say Armored evolution like?
The similarity between Mega and Digimon has always been there for me.
But with that said, new Pokemon forms are cool. The lore behind Mega is awesome. But as a battle gimmick, it wasn't for me.
I would love to see the forms brought back with Gigantamax in a Paradox type of form, to keep them around permanently without the battle gimmick. Tie it into the lore somehow.
After revisiting the megas yeah im glad they arent back because some designs just aint slapping
Gigantamax designs are so much better than Megas to me - they had a clear theme and philosophy: bigness, where as these things just get spikes and scary faces.
All the Pokemon with Mega and Gigantamax forms look better when Gigantamax’d
Ranking starts at 19:45
just an fyi we dont say derpy anymore
Dusty has hot takes and hypocritical when it comes to designs and lore. Mega charizard cant fly huh. Well look at dudrio has no wings and can learn fly
My Takes for what their worth
S - Beedrill, Pidgeot, Blaziken.
A - Charizard Y, Gardevoir, Aggron, Sceptile, Swampert, Metagross.
B - Legendary Pokemon, their fine some
F - ALL NONE THIRD STAGE POKEMON, it means they will now never evolve unless they get regional forms. screwing them over for good, well done game freak.
I HATE mega's and i hope in the remakes of X and Y they RECON them out and just have these Pokemon evolve.
Do it for Stage 2 (3rd Stage) Pokemon, Give them new forms awesome, but don't screw over Pokemon who need to Evolve.
It's the WORST battle gimmick, Vmax was better, Tera is better, Z-moves weren't great but with open team sheets i think it could have been fine.
Dusty has the WORST arguments /takes is just L after L 😂😂😂
I've watched like 15 of their tier lists in the last 2 weeks and everytime it gets worst and worst.
many lumi and soul Ws
Their Megas were loosely based on fighter jets. 2:04:16
How cheeky of you, changing the thumbnail on a 2 month old video to have a Legends ZA logo because the content is ZA adjacent.
I hate wasps Beedrill looks like a cicada hunter wasp and I hate it I'm like God why God why!!!?!?! Get it away I want to crush it it brings out the darkness in me...
Bug Pokemon 🤮 I only like a few bugs like bees and ladybugs, mega Pinsir 🤮....
Mega Scizor is S tier so is mega heracross
Beedrill actually reminds me of "leaf cutter bees" - I only discovered these guys last year when I noticed what I thought was a wasp, cutting out a little circle in a leaf in my yard. Turns out they use little pieces of leaves as a "door" for the burrows they create in old wood. Anyway, I just thought that was cute. 😂 I typically have Misty-like reactions to bug Pokémon too lol
Bro y'all are crazy mega steelix is top tierr and the blue markings are crystals those little parts are geodes bro he soo sickk
Also some megas are in unite 2:24:42
2:00:35 you guys are crazy. Mega Metagross is top 3, objectively.
Ngl kinda hated the Megas and every gimmick sinse some of the designs are cool but I just dislike the fact they revert back after battle I wish they were more like regional forms etc
I don't know how Dusty can have such terrible opinions on megas 😭💔
blastoise shell arms are stupid in the best way, megas have this unsustainable strength to them
ofc dude likes gmax blastoise instead😂😂😂
Still bitter Mega Blastoise isn’t Water/Steel and Mega Gyarados isn’t Water/Dragon 🥲😤
Mega medacham is so sick you guys just don't understand the design that's all if you did you would have put in an s or a guarantee
Gallade is EASILY S TIER
Hey! Thanks for the episode, they make my day!!!
Glad you like them!
The intro aged beautifully bad
- the anime doesn't count. It's like a joke.
- u don't count. You're a joke 🤣

I think every single mega belongs in F lol there's not one I like. Not one.
Mega gengar F tier for me
Bruh SCEPTILE is overrated, mega Blaziken is sooooo much better than a Christmas tree.
I don’t like charizard y bc its wings are too flimsy yet charizard x’s stay completely still. Bro doesn’t fly he glides. Get outta here Dusty
Mega Metagross is literal perfection
Dusty is 100% correct about Charizard!!!
Mega Banette is the best.
I'm with Dusty on Zard Y, it's literally just an overdesigned Charizard, more spikes, messier wings, arm wings that do nothing.
Though it at least looks cool enough in a vacuum, Mega Venusaur is overdesigned with random pointless shit AND is just plain ugly lol
Mega evolutions were a huge disappointment. First, only select few pokemon got the special treatment, while the rest of them got nothing. Gigantamax at least had a universal alternative in form of Dynamax.

And I love how Gigantamax fit perfectly in Galarian stadium entertainment culture. Still my favorite gimmick even after broken Terastall.
I think this is the worst episode I've ever seen 😭
