I do hope we get more games from series of the DS era. Thought maybe we’d get more after the Mystery Dungeon remake on Switch, but not yet. At least I’ll have some time to catch up on Rangers, lol
Probably due to stylers need to use stylus to perform that, one more thing that the Nintendo Switch doesn't have stylus, no wonder if it's never be remade.
The games are fun and what makes them special to me are the amazing sprite art and animations. Each Pokémon is portrayed very nicely and accurately to how you’d assume they would when in the wild. For anyone that hasn’t played these games they’re a pretty good time and are quality spin offs
I do like the sprite art for spin off games because they can have the Pokémon in different angles and movements. Looking forward to how they all look in Ranger!
God i love the Pokemon Ranger series. The gameplay is technically just drawing circles around Pokemon but it was so much fun to play. The art style is charming the music is good and the story was interesting to follow as a kid. Still remember when i was younger and i wanted the new Pokemon Ranger game so badly i went outside to buy it during heavy snow but there was no bus that could bring me back so i ended up having to be brought home by the police much to the surprise of my mom.
Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs remains one of my favorite games period. Especially the multiplayer - it's super fun, but challenging even as an adult. Also, Hocus did Dynamax before SwSh
Those games were incredible. Especially loved the post game events that let you move the special Pokémon into the mainline games. Sad that Pokémon doesn’t do that anymore.
I never played the ranger games either but after seeing the manaphy movie, jaiden animations and now this I really should. Pokemon Rangers are just that good
This isnt even the only cross over episode they had with Ranger. They even got the Male protag in Shadows of Almia (Ranger 2) to appear in the Sinnoh anime And Guardian Signs (Ranger 3) got their own OVA so its pretty near.
One of the things I really like about the Pokémon Ranger episodes and the film is that they all tell the events of special missions from the game, in the first Pokémon Ranger game there is a mission with Celebi, another one with Deoxys and a special one with Manaphy and everything that was said in the Pokémon Ranger movie was similar to what we know from the game. In Pokémon Ranger Shadows of Almia there is a mission with a Riolu with Aura Sphere and once again, the 2 episodes in season 11 are similar to the in-game events (Ash being able to locate Riolu for example, a character named Kyle can do the same thing) And in Guardian Signs there is a mission with a Heatran and in season 13 there is a last Pokémon Ranger episode with a Heatran There are more missions but I only talked about the ones there are episodes of
Honestly it feels like gamefreak is focusing on girl trainers more than male trainers over the years which kinda starts to make me feel somewhat uncomfortable cuz if ash meets male trainers like calem or Brandon or even Victor. It’ll be awesome but I guess that’ll never happen. Talk about fanbase and all that. Anyways hope you can make an episode dedicated for male trainers or other mythical Pokémon or other movies. Like diancie or Hoopa or even Darkrai
Funny you should write this under a video about a Pokemon Ranger episode, because all the other protagonists from this spin-off series appearing in the anime are boys
Oh yeah I remember this episode....sorta. It's been a while since I've watched Advanced but I did remember tidbits of this episode. It was pretty average but I thought Solana was cool and she showed off stuff from Ranger (a series I didn't know about at the time) pretty well. Also she has an amazing design. Like, it's really good.
Heh. I never forgot about Solana -how could I because even as a kid, I was a degenerate- but holy shit, I DID forget how athletic she was in this episode. Makes sense for that to be the case especially because you gotta be FIT for the job and be very adaptable to various situations. Like you, I forgot the general episode beats but hey, if a character and design sticks into your head years later even after just remembering a mostly mundane episode, you know the designers did _something right_ -again, I was and still am a degenerate- . I don't remember the boy's name though. Lol. The one who helps in that Special Riolu two parter.
I never played Ranger either, but I have vague memories of getting a friend to give me his Manaphy over to my Pearl version in return for NOTHING. I don't remember if that friend was a real person or if it was just an action replay though...
Legit if Pokémon were real I’d wanna be a ranger, across the games you get to channel Pokémon moves yourself, like your casting freakin’ magic out your styler, you can command Pokémon en masse no six limit, or even summon them which is insane just straight up teleport any Pokémon you need even legendary Pokémon to you, plus their job is badass why yes I’d love to professionally help people as “quests”, maintain safe routes through nature, defend settlements against wild Pokémon, stop humans mistreating Pokémon, take out evil organisations and care for wild settlements of Pokémon, like Rangers are such a cool part of Pokémon lore that really make sense in a world filled with magical creatures that control the elements why wouldn’t you have a force dedicated to dealing with that without intruding on their life conservation styles,
Ha jokes on you I never forgot these eps XD always loved the games so when the anime did Ranger eps I always loved them plus they normally had the bigger adventures in those eps. also love the Ranger movie it's one of my favorites. and I've always loved the idea of the Pokemon Rangers surprised they don't show up more in things
@@GatorEX 10 year old me could never beat Dusknor but then I finally beat him when I found explorers of Sky cartridge in my room I was wondering where that thing was and in the main series I could never beat the grass totem fight
I predict that GatorEX will not like the original Pokémon Ranger, but will greatly enjoy the sequels, because as good as this spin-off series is as a whole, I don’t think the first one is a very good game.

The Rangers series definitely are underrated classics. Shame we haven't gotten another title in years
I do hope we get more games from series of the DS era. Thought maybe we’d get more after the Mystery Dungeon remake on Switch, but not yet. At least I’ll have some time to catch up on Rangers, lol
@@GatorEX I'm definitely reordering the Mystery Dungeon remake when it comes out
Probably due to stylers need to use stylus to perform that, one more thing that the Nintendo Switch doesn't have stylus, no wonder if it's never be remade.
1:34 “The stupid know it all Max…” killed me 😂
Samee

Solana doesn’t battle Team Rocket, because Rangers don’t battle.
I thought Rangers halted criminal activity with the Pokémon they utilize aside from acting as conservationists.

Dang, that’s quite the story.
Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs remains one of my favorite games period. Especially the multiplayer - it's super fun, but challenging even as an adult.
Also, Hocus did Dynamax before SwSh
I could never beat the multiplayer section because I couldn't get any farther without backup. And I never knew anyone else who had Guardian Signs.
Same here! I could never beat it because I didn’t have multiplayer
Those games were incredible. Especially loved the post game events that let you move the special Pokémon into the mainline games. Sad that Pokémon doesn’t do that anymore.
I never played the ranger games either but after seeing the manaphy movie, jaiden animations and now this I really should. Pokemon Rangers are just that good
Yeah, it had always been there, but for some reason I never tried it out. Bows the time I suppose!
This isnt even the only cross over episode they had with Ranger.

There are more missions but I only talked about the ones there are episodes of
the only ranger episodes I remember is the two part special with a aura sphere Riolu.

We are still waiting for that face off against Ash and red you already know who will win red
@@togechicku4997kellyn and his episodes were awesome! There was whole movie dedicated to rangers with Manaphy and the prince of sea
I never forgot about Solana's debut in the anime back in 2006. Good times.
I remember wanting to get rangers as a kid. Now I can emulate every game I used to want.
Oh yeah I remember this episode....sorta. It's been a while since I've watched Advanced but I did remember tidbits of this episode. It was pretty average but I thought Solana was cool and she showed off stuff from Ranger (a series I didn't know about at the time) pretty well. Also she has an amazing design. Like, it's really good.
Yeah, the spin off game character always look really cool!
anyone remember the salamence fight from the first ranger game?
Her blue hair is such a fashion statement. I live.
Heh. I never forgot about Solana -how could I because even as a kid, I was a degenerate- but holy shit, I DID forget how athletic she was in this episode. Makes sense for that to be the case especially because you gotta be FIT for the job and be very adaptable to various situations.

Between Solana in this episode and Brycen punching a Plasma grunt in Generations, the humans in Pokémon are built different.
@@GatorEX -Just like Gen 5 music hitting different- Yeah, that just showed how badass Brycen and others actually are when we're not looking. Lol.
3:15 I paused the video because there was DEFINITELY something there!!!
I remember there also being an episode in the DP Saga where they met Ben from Guardian Signs
No way I forgot I remember this like it was yesterday.
I only remembered a Pokemon Ranger in Manaphy's Movie.
Meanwhile, Solana becomes a villain in a ROM Hack.
great video as always!
4:41 I swear if they get their bike out of their bag I will be surprised
I love may even if there is nothing there :') 03:16
I never forgot. I saw this when it aired.
I've always loved Solanna but never got the opportunity to play rangers. Will try one of these days
Wish I even understood what any of this ment.
Wasn't there also a Guardian Signs arc of the Sinnoh anime? I remember seeing episodes featuring the guy from that game in Sinnoh.
I never played Ranger either, but I have vague memories of getting a friend to give me his Manaphy over to my Pearl version in return for NOTHING.
I don't remember if that friend was a real person or if it was just an action replay though...
The games are so underrated, wish we got more rangers
Crazy how just an episode convinced my 8 y/o brain to beg my dad to buy this. Same with mystery dungeon
Pokemon ranger really is one of the best Pokémon game series
Legit if Pokémon were real I’d wanna be a ranger, across the games you get to channel Pokémon moves yourself, like your casting freakin’ magic out your styler, you can command Pokémon en masse no six limit, or even summon them which is insane just straight up teleport any Pokémon you need even legendary Pokémon to you, plus their job is badass why yes I’d love to professionally help people as “quests”, maintain safe routes through nature, defend settlements against wild Pokémon, stop humans mistreating Pokémon, take out evil organisations and care for wild settlements of Pokémon, like Rangers are such a cool part of Pokémon lore that really make sense in a world filled with magical creatures that control the elements why wouldn’t you have a force dedicated to dealing with that without intruding on their life conservation styles,
Yeah I got say the ranger series is pretty cool and lovely,so seeing this video was pretty great
Also I wish y'all are having a great day.
I had rangers frontiers (I think that was the name for the 2nd game) for the ds and I'd even say we need a new modern or reboot rangers for today
Ha jokes on you I never forgot these eps XD
always loved the games so when the anime did Ranger eps I always loved them plus they normally had the bigger adventures in those eps.
also love the Ranger movie it's one of my favorites.
and I've always loved the idea of the Pokemon Rangers surprised they don't show up more in things
Bdsp reminds me of pokemon ranger with using the poketch to use wild Pokemon for HMs
I want a 4th ranger since i played to Guardian Signs...
Wait if misty is present, was this pre-diamond/pearl?
Me knowing that the first 2 pokemon rangers games have a manga adaptation that's canon to Pokemon adventures. 😏
i never finished the first ranger game because you had to catch entei near the end and jt was IMPOSSIBLE for 10 y/o me
Dang, that probably would’ve been me too if I play it back then, haha
@@GatorEX 10 year old me could never beat Dusknor but then I finally beat him when I found explorers of Sky cartridge in my room I was wondering where that thing was and in the main series I could never beat the grass totem fight
I miss the ranger games
Touch the bidoof
Happy birthday to Solana🎉🎁🎂🎊
3:16
pain
3:16 Why did you pause the video?
There's nothing here!
I hate you for making me spend so long going back to read what was on the styler
Ironically the Pokémon Ranger episodes swayed me away from the games as a kid because "they don't catch the Pokémon, that's lame".
I predict that GatorEX will not like the original Pokémon Ranger, but will greatly enjoy the sequels, because as good as this spin-off series is as a whole, I don’t think the first one is a very good game.
I thought it was alright. Nothing amazing but I enjoy the game. I haven’t played since the late 2000’s so I don’t know how I’ll feel about it now.
Brock wtf
Can't blame him solona is hot
But I don't care about Pokémon Ranger 😔And yet I'm enjoying the video? (=
First
No one cares
