      Its for sure the best 3 solid evolution line since Imo Treeko-Grovyle-Sceptile Line. *the new sprig-flor-meowscarada is great too* I feel like a lot of the times the middle evolutions are pretty yucky but if you have a good middle the start and ends are usually good and you end up having a line that looks good throughout the entirety.

  • @Glory2Snowstar
    @Glory2Snowstar Рік тому +218

    Pre-Meowscarada, Delphox was my favorite Starter line. It's awesome to have such a spooktacular sorcerer, especially in the game that introduced Gourgeist and came out in October!
    Braixen's whole broom silhouette with the stick in the tail is genius, too- I kinda wish Delphox did something similar. Although the fur robe more than makes up for it, love the swoops!

    I actually do like Delphox more than Braixen, mainly because I like Delphox's design more. Yes, the silhouette isn't that unique, especially since they could have made the ear fur look like a witch hat, but I always prefer the final evolutions of the starters more then the middle ones, plus Fire/Psychic is a great type combo, and I think it's Shiny is even better than Braixen. I was also glad the anime finally evolved Serena's Braixen into Delphox since I've always hated that the majority of the starters the gang caught don't reach their final forms, even more so when they don't reach their middle evolutions( Looking at you Rowlett, Totodile Oshawatt, Snivy, Chespin and Grookey).
    And fun fact about that Sword Art Online clip, the dub voice actress for Asuna also voices Chloe in Journeys, so yo could say it came full circle, or it was just a coincidence, probably the latter.

  • @JiYooHJi
    @JiYooHJi Рік тому +35

    I prefer Braixen's quasi-magical girl design (probably because I watch a lot of anime). However, I do think Delphox is cooler overall. It looks just as intimidating as the other Kalos Starters do in their final forms, appearing both confident and powerful. Delphox's witch-like design also fits perfectly with the theme the Kalos Starters are based on. I will agree that Braixen's model looks more lively compared to Delphox's, though. Also, I feel like Delphox could have been a Fairy-type instead of a Psychic-type. But it makes sense why it isn't. Along with their original type being good against one another, their secondary type shares this trait as well. Fire/Psychic makes it still weak to the Water/Dark-type Greninja while triumphing over the Grass/Fighting-type Chesnaught. And the Kalos Starters have moves that can counter their rivals, though I do think Delphox needs more options than just Grass Knot and Solar Beam for Greninja in XY.
    I can see why Serena's Braixen didn't evolve during her time as a main character. Ash, Serena, and Clemont each owned a Starter that was in different stages of their lines: Ash had the final form of the Froakie line, Serena had the middle form of the Fennekin line, and Clemont had the base form of the Chespin line. I think Braixen not evolving is also a nod towards Serena having much more room to grow as a Trainer.
    Also, what is the witch watching?

    I absolutely love this Pokémon, it’s Top 5 material for me for sure. It took some time for it to get there though.
    Initially, I thought Braixen’s design was fine. I liked it and thought it was a cute evolution, but it didn’t blow me away. What sold Braixen for me was its portrayal in various medias. Seeing it move around in the anime was cool enough, but it was mainly Pokken Tournament that helped me like this mon. The magical girl/witch/performer hybrid of a persona was so fun to watch (and play too, she was the first character that stuck with me).
    And since then, I’ve grown to like Braixen more and more. Don’t get me wrong, I also love Delphox, I think it’s a sick design and Fire/Psychic is great. Using it on various teams was great, it puts in some hard work and does really well. But it will never be able to top the bond I have w/ the middle stage fire fox of Kalos.
    As a bonus, the whole line as some of my favorite shinies ever, w/ Delphox’s being #1 for me.
    So yeah, Braixen (and Delphox by extension) is great

    Delphox is one of my two #1 favorite Pokémon. The other is hisuian zoroark but this isn’t about them
    I love it due to being a magic fox.
    I love magic in things, if a game has some kind of magic class I usually pick it right away. Foxes are my favorite animals, and it just has a really cool design in my opinion. I like the fur robe, the stick for a wand and keeping it in the sleeve. I like how the ear fur looks. Something probably unintentional about the design but could be neat if it was intentional is the big ears it has is obviously taken from the fennic fox which the line is based off and the fennics ears help it cool down in the hot environment it lives in, the fur on delphox kinda looks like flames, flames = hot, ears get rid of heat on the fennic. Like I said 99% unintentional but something neat I thought of.
    But ya I love braixen to, it’s really damn cute but I can’t help but have a bit of annoyance to it cus it overshadows delphox as much as it does and I like delphox more but I still love all three members of the line
    My one complaint about delphox is ya, it’s 3D model and animations are, not that great it could be way better.
    And for braixen, I think it’s voice in pokken is really damn annoying I prefer the voice it had in the anime

    I was not a fan of the ear hair, and am still not crazy about it, but Braixen has grown on me. I can appreciate her cute tsundere magical girl mannerisms, and I wouldn't be surprised if a future Super Smash Bros. title added her as a playable character. Props to her for distinguishing herself as a middle-stage evolution more popular than either the base or fully-evolved forms. (Yes, I know Braixen can be male and in fact usually are because the devs for some reason think starters need to be male 7/8 of the time - as though we aren't just going to reset scum until we get the one we want anyway - but Braixen's look and behavior are very clearly patterned after traditionally female character archetypes, so to me she's a female by default.)

    • @quinnderp
      @quinnderp 5 місяців тому +1

      i believe that the starter gender ratio is not cannon due to the fact that EVERY starter has it and not even just starters, fossil pokemon and eevee have the same ratio. the reason is that originally these pokemon where supposed to be special and rare so having a mostly male gender ratio made it harder to obtain more of them. so yea i believe its just a game mechanic now tradition and is not cannon to the actual pokemon. that being said i personally believe the cannon gender ratio of braixen is mostly female

  • @dylancollins227
    @dylancollins227 Рік тому +4

    I've always thought that typically Braixen, as a whole, tend to be more outgoing and happy-go-lucky. When they evolve, the personality shift almost in a spiteful sense. They become more witch-like. Cold and calculating. Not exactly malevolent, but withdrawn, maybe a bit bitter. They're not aggressive, but hostile. Grouchy, unpleasant, and vengeful, yet calm, patient, and ready.

    I went Fennekin in Y and, naturally, it took the role of the overleveled starter. No wonder I always failed to beat the Elite 4. I do recall being a bit disapointed when it evolved into **shock** a _girl_ Pokemon (the pun name went over my head since I was like ten), but it grew on me. I wonder if that stupid fox is why I like Sonic. It's interesting that the first form is some kind of magical girl while the second form looks more experienced; perhaps Braixen has only recently had Hagrid bust down its door and as such is still getting used to its powers (as well as trying to flaunt them at any opportunity) while Delphox is much more experienced, being more used to its powers and using them more conservatively whilst being far more powerful.
    I'm doing a Mono-Fire run in Y because, as it turns out, my potato laptop really can run Citra with the upscaler set to 240p (or at least Pokemon since it targets 30FPS across the board) and I wanted an excuse to go Fennekin again (Wilting Y - a hack that I still haven't finished - makes the first encounter a hidden ability Torchic and I ended up having to go Froakie to avoid duplicated types). I'll admit that most early Fire-types kind of blend together with their movepools, but I'm expecting them to vary a lot and I'm planning to pick up a Flareon to replace Pansear (who is so pants he didn't even get a nickname) once I get to Cyllage City, either Slugma or Torkoal for type variety, and a Litwick to cap off the team.
    I've seen a bit of the XY anime, and I loved that they brought back the classic theme tune. Haven't seen much of it beyond that though.

But I especially liked Fennekin, Braixen and Delphox because I always thought that fire starters had the best designs from all of the starters. And yeah Braixen and Delphox aren't for everyone to like but at least those who don't like them should respect people who like them. And yeah I have a lot of love and nostalgia for gen 6 even tho people seem to don't like it

    I doubt we really need a "magic type" in pokemon 'cuz we technically already have that concept split into several different kinds. (psychic, dark, fairy, ghost, etc.) I think psychic fits delphox perfectly since it not only rolls with the whole pyromancy/pyrokinesis motif of being a natural-born fire mage, but also conveying its intelligent prowess of the mystic arts like Alakazam or Hypno.

    @Lyokoheros-KLPXTV Рік тому +2

    Personally I always loved delphox and WAAAAY more than braixen I must add.
    Delphox is actually my very favorite fire starter. As for braixen... not so much. Actually I like this stage the least in the entire line.
    I mean I don't hate it, not even that I don't like it. It's just not as good as the rest.
    Fenneking is just great, and really cute and adorable little fire fox - Serena's fennekin only enforce this notion even more.
    Delphox is real peak of the line (which generally means the line is well made - as imo in well made line everit make so good job at it, that it doesn;t seem natural anymore. y next stage should be better than previous... which yeah isn't 100% the case here, but last stage being best is still most important part of that), many describe it as witch, and sometimes as being somewhat awkward, which... I don't exactly agree. I mean yeah the ear fur is a bit overdone, but Imo it's not a big deal. And despite it kinda is inspired by a witch I see her (yeah I know starters are more likely to be male, but this line is so feminine that it simply feel natural to reffer to this pokemon as "her") not really as a witch but rather some kind of sorceress (or maybe archmage with her long "robe") or priestess. It is the kind of vibe she gives me... mystical, elegant, gracefull, wise, maybe mysterious or even regal in a way and rather benevolent. It's just so good (to the point I decided to have its regional variant in my made up region :D).
    But braixen.... well she is kind cute little witch... yeah that one actually do come to me as a witch... kinda... as actually she's mainly... like a school girl. Yeah, this may be because of the whole mahou shoujo genre, what have some appeal to it... but at the same time her being so much like a school girl is... somewhat ofputting to me... (not enough to make me NOT like the design... but still). The worst part actually are those black legs... they seem very much like some tights or high stockings... yeah I know it's actually her natural fur, which was just supposed to kinda represent that... but that's the point: it make such a good job at it, that it doesn't feel natural anymore. And feeling natural, feeling PRIMARLY as a believable part of natural creature is - in most cases - key part of goood pokemon design. And that one thing kinda stands out like a sore thumb to me. It may seem small to some but definitely isn't for me.
    (And I would say this mistake - because I definitely consider it a mistake in design - was repeated in case of meaowscarada - when the situation is kinda reverse as later stage is one "wearing tights", making floragato actually best stage in the line for me)

  • @LaySuperMarioLover
    @LaySuperMarioLover 3 місяці тому

    I'm not really into the stereotype animé girl stuff. But when I started my copy of Pokémon X version for the first time I picked Fennekin as my starter, simply because I thought it was treated kind of unfairly and that it should get some love. To say which stage would be my favorite, is hard to tell, but I am indeed leaning towards Braixen, since it perfectly blends attributes from both stage 1 and stage 3 of its line, being more mature than Fennekin, yet still has lot to learn before maturing into a Delphox. IDK, I simply like that whole ''not fully grown yet'' arc, maybe because I am in that stage myself at the moment.
    This is exactly one of the reasons why Pokémon can be so magical -- because it can bring people together by 🔥igniting🔥 friendly competition (see what I did there?). Plus, you can discover new ways to grow in terms of your own personality. You know how many people say that the Pokémon you place in your party can paint a picture of who you are -- in other words, your personality? That is what I think of when I watch this video, and it is one of the reasons it reminds me why I picked Fennekin, the other being the afore-mentioned in that Fennekin was once the most controversial starter Pokémon from Kalos.

I kind of wish that Braixen was the Gen 6 rep for Smash Bros, though Greninja is pretty cool though. At least Braixen us in Pokken, and I do use her there.

    • @Unit102ALPHA
      @Unit102ALPHA 3 місяці тому

      As a fellow Braixen fan, I understand how you feel about her not being a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. However, I would like to believe that Braixen finally becoming a playable fighter in a future Super Smash Bros. entry is more of a "When" scenario than an "If." My reasoning is thus: As Braixen becomes more popular and her fanbase increases, demand by fans to have Braixen as a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. would also increase. Given sufficient time, the requests would reach likely a flashpoint and Braixen would be added in by popular demand from a vast, loving, fanbase in a manner not unlike Steve from Minecraft, Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII, and Sora from Kingdom Hearts. All three characters are wildly popular and/ or iconic because of how beloved they are. (Or in Sephiroth's case, the character everyone loves to hate, hates to love, and is DEATHLY AFFRIAD OF!) If those three could make it into Smash because of that factor, then so can Braixen!
