    Where is the mother off?!
    It's coming. We have 200+ Mothers to discuss and I tried to make a video on them in the past weeek, but its a big discussion and the video didn't turn out well. Thankfully, I was working on this idea at the same time and what was just going to be a quick 10 minute video turned into a typical 30 minute discussion. Hopefully this will tide everyone over. 😅

    I love the flowers given to Lt Surge but I think we as a community need to work harder to ascend Lorelei into that motherhood she deserves. When I was a kid, it was Lorelei that awoke something inside of me that manifested itself into who I am today. When I saw her giving pose in Let's Go, I screamed. Also, Blue gives more and more sleekness in his looks every time he shows up. Like, he has the potential but chooses to throw it away with his team choices.

    not to be sappy but there's something about watching these girlypop rankings that is actually so emotional for me at times, and I wonder if other people like me (gay) around your age have a similar reaction. it's like we get to discuss and gush over what we love about gym leaders and pokemon in a way that we didn't have the language for when we were younger, or even were too scared to explain before coming out. I remember as a kid even admitting to just liking pokemon or trainers that embody what we now call girlypop aesthetics could make you a target for homophobia, as crazy as that is to type out, so when I watch these I find myself getting to express through you (and out loud) what I've been wanting to say about these characters with feelings that have aged for like 15 years, like you know what I have always thought Sabrina is mother down I just didn't know how to say it at the time. anyway love u and what you do

    15:53 Poor Janine. Considering how little time she seems to have had to make the Fuchsia Gym her own, we gotta give her props for how she changes up the gym puzzle, right? She didn’t have time to remodel, but instead of the invisible walls her gimmick was having all the gym trainers disguise themselves as her. Which is 1. very cute but also 2. a great use of her limited resources, right? The only thing she has to work with is the extra copies of her dad’s ninja outfit, but instead of feeling chafed by that she makes her own little joke out of it

    Surge is so joyful and happy and full of whimsy in a way that most military characters arent, and i think that characterization is what elevates his design and keeps it from being plain and boring despite his usual generic military dude wear
    I also resent that Surge and Giovanni go to the same parties, because Janine is such a level of daddies girl that she needs two dads, and the other one is definitely surge. Like, look at him and tell me hes not a girl dad

    I will defend Blue on here and say that he at LEAST deserves looks around, he truly shines in Heart Gold and Soul Silver, his team mostly consists of manlypop pokemon but some of them such as Arcanine, Pidgeot and Rhydon, for me give me girlypop; it also reflects him as a very confident trainer with pokemon such as machamp and gyarados showing that confidence.
    Although he has used payolazard in the past before and it seems like its his main pokemon, It is not actually!! It's pidgeot that you see most of the times seen in his final battle in red, blue and green, heart gold and soul silver and Pokemon Masters EX in his base form!! I also believe that pidgeot is a great pokemon for him as it shows his fierceness and the typing matches his personality which is to strive to be the best pokemon trainer.
    Well there's my mini-essay on Blue and why he should be bumped up a tier!!

      Team screams try-hard. Like if you ask a 13 year old to make a pokemon team. Unoriginal. Flavorless.

    But Lorelei should be mother, she ate everytime she showed up, especially with those glasses. She gives me Bayonetta vibes, she is the beautiful ice witch that contrasts the more traditional witch look of Agatha, she is such a moment

    I love your videos and am a recent subscriber: our similar taste in games, your aesthetic; my dictionary for girlypop doesn't always read the same as yours but that's what makes the perspective & conversation so fascinating!
    Lorelei is my favorite character in pokemon, with Erika right behind her. I mean, anyone that reads my channel name will see the references; lorelei is the perfect example I have of a character that can really impact you regardless of their relevance. I think about her so often that I actually forget how much of an afterthought she really is in regard to game freaks treatment of her. But she's always stood out to me & admittedly, I project a lot of myself onto her because we both have a lot in common aesthetically. The hints of purple in her designs, which is my favorite color...the glasses which is my favorite accessory...my favorite Pokémon of all time is Jynx. Who does she use? mmhmm. The slowpoke & seel line are also among my favorite pokemon, so the majority of her teams consist of my faves. Her name too, idk what it is but I find "Lorelei" to be the most gorgeous name. It's my favorite word, even. I love the name so much that I use it as a nickname on the internet. Though she's categorized as an Ice trainer, her team has a lot of parallels with the water and psychic typing; I love Will from gen 2, but it makes me salty that her and agatha got shafted from their positions when they're the standouts of the original lineup, IMO.
    How cool would it have been to see Lorelei in gen 2 as a psychic type trainer? She keeps her Jynx and Slowbro, but mixes it up and subverts expectations of the players that know her from gen 1. IDEK if this comment has made a lick of sense, but I adore Lorelei so much and she means a lot to me. It's a shame she wasn't given the extra appearences via Johto to really be a staple in a lot of people's minds, and for as long as I can remember I'm always wondering about the 'what if' that is Lorelei's HGSS design. It's such a tragedy
    Anyways, you got a new fan
