You know the funny thing about Colress is this.... He wants to find out what brings out the greatest strength of a Pokemon, which was said to be the bond between Pokemon and trainer. Then in the next generation Mega Evolution was introduced. Foreshadowing?
I admit that beefed up Wally fight had me speechless too! What can I say? The image of mega Sceptile and mega Gallade duelling in a huge field of flowers as a final obstacle before the pokemon league is just glorious! And thats not even talking about all the emotional weight Speed mentioned!
I’ve recently discovered this channel and I’ve got to say this. Speedster your one of the most underrated channels I have ever seen on this site. Your work is shown to really differ from other you tubers who only do weak editing and crappy videos. I have really enjoyed all your videos from the start and have grown to be a fan too. I hope your channel deserves the recognition it should get. Keep doing what you love and never stop.
I've actually been thinking lately, what if Norman was actually the FINAL Gym Leader? Seriously, think about it: the one thing standing between you and the Elite Four, after defeating Team Aqua and/or Magma, stopping essentially demigods controlling the forces of nature, going through all this shit, the final challenge you have left is your own father the greatest, most powerful trainer you've ever known...then you finally win and he grants you the final gym badge and sends you off to the Pokemon League with his blessing and tells you that you're the greatest trainer he's ever faced and is proud of you for making it this far.
Runedrace And well the Main Character in Colloseum is pretty boss as well Given that he actually isn't a young kid (or well at least he doesn't seem as young at least) and he is pretty awesome with him exploding the hideout of (whatever their name was again) And well he just looks cool (In my opinion anyways)
It was amazing. I, even got kind of a bit emotional with Wally's story. It's amazing how emotionally invested we become. And your narration is brilliant (y)
vaporterra i didn't use the FEAR strategy, that was my HM slave, and it's not like i was in a bad spot I still had all my other pokemon in good health i just "you know what people think this bitch is hard well i'm gonna beat her garchomp with my slave
Mst3kfanatic1 You sound like the "I caught a (legendary) with a Poke Ball" people on youtube. I'm sure if Garchomp's health was low enough you could've found someway to bring your HM slave Rattata into the battle and if Garchomp's attacks kept missing yeah you could've knocked it out, but ok? I'm not saying it's not true but you don't get a medal or anything for beating a certain Pokemon with a certain Pokemon. And ultimately some trainers people perceive as hard can be easier for some.
vaporterra well actually it only took one quick attack since it had one hp left due to false swipe so it didn't have time to attack. and since the pokemon games are so repetitive I like to do crazy things in the game like that to mix it up a bit.
Mst3kfanatic1 That certainly helps. I feel like even though the core of each main series game is similar each set of games brings something different to the table which keeps people coming back and playing them
Lance, Red, and N are my favorite battles. First two due to the impact they had on me when I was little (and the awesome music), third due to the story importance and atmosphere.
I love Wally. I've always loved Wally. Ever since I first played Sapphire I've loved Wally. Maybe it was just the novelty of having a character that sees you the same way we see champions.
Speedster!!! OMG I just discovered your page, and I fell in love with it instantly. For one, i also absolutely ADORE Pokemon. Second of all, I have the exact same team as your playthrough of White XD Plus it came with a shiny Excadrill. I love your account so much that I've rewatched some of your videos. Keep making videos, you're amazing at it.
Y'know, I can only think of one complaint with Steven. WHY THE HECK WASN'T HE THE CHAMPION IN EMERALD? Freakin' Wallace... Honestly, though, I think I like the music style of Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald better than OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire. The sort of blaring sounds just makes the music sound more imposing. There are a few themes I like better in OR/AS, such as the rival theme and the rival theme that's only in OR/AS, freakin' Wally's GODLY final battle theme.
Ha! I totally agree. Throughout the game, Steven is always saving your ass, and when he's not, he's usually showing you up by doing something cool and unexpected. But sadly no, Wallace just prances around in his flamboyant gowns boasting about some false reputation he has as the most powerful trainer
my favorite battle was the battle against AZ in X and Y. earlier in the game an NPC explains that Pokemon battles used to be a way people understood one another and AZ battle's you because he wants to know what a trainer is. and the aftermath of the battle was a very heart warming scene
lauchlin yurchuk I remember that scene! I actually teared up at AZ's reaction to seeing his beloved friend Floette after 3,000 years... It was beautiful :*)
vaporterra although i wish they would have gave AZ and his backstory a little more screentime, give him a little buildup it would have made the ending a whole lot more meaningful
lauchlin yurchuk For me I felt what we were given is still a good amount, especially the detail of the visuals of the War of Kalos intriguied me. Part of AZ's personality was meant to be mysterious and if he was given more screentime that may have worked against that
Thinking about it, I can't personally say that, between Wally (ORAS) and N (BW1), one is better than the other. They're both intense battles for their own reasons. Wally because that weak, timid little kid that caught a Ralts as his first Pokemon (if the Pokedex has anything to say about that, then this shows that Wally is a kindhearted person) has grown into someone who was not only able to beat all eight gym leaders, but just barely failed the trek through Victory Road because he knew you'd be coming and simply HAD to face off with you before taking on the E4 (in my opinion, he did so because he felt beating you proves that he has the strength to take on the E4), which in of itself is a VERY impressive feat (assuming you don't have the benefit of being a player), while N's battle was a long time coming. The game spent the whole game hyping it up and here it is. Your strongest foe (and honestly kind of a friend) is here to face you, the ultimate showdown between truth and ideals, with legendaries to boot. Sure, N's farewell happens after the GHETSIS fight, but I still consider it part of the N fight aftermath. That scene brought me to tears (probably because I was a huge FerrisWheel Shipper at the time and I usually play the female character).
malthe petersen Not really. Those can't really be considered "anime cutscenes", more like really amazing models. It's not an animation, like, for example, the cutscenes from Persona 3 and 4
Speedster i totally agree with the n battle, was hoping for black and white to be in there, i still play pokemon although i havent gotten the new remakes of ruby and saphire i have x, black 2, white, black, pearl, soul silver, silver, blue, yellow, and saphire. i love the pokemon series, the story always seems to touch me and the views how you didnt know who was completely right and how you knew what the enemy actually was thinking made it amazing to me when you fight N. his ideas made sense and it was almost controversal in the way of gta 5 how you dont know who is right or wrong. this fight left me wanting more and i hope that N flies back on his dragon some day.
Here's my personal top 10. 10. Clair- Mostly for her reaction after you beat her. 9. Winnona- Her team can honestly confuse me, at times. 8. Skyla- Her anime appearance made me happy to beat her. 7. Wallace Rematch in the Delta Episode- His team managed to give me some trouble... 6. Zinnia- Her Mega Salamence is unexpected for first-timers. 5. Final Maxie/Archie- Both have great teams, themes, backgrounds, and Mega Evolutions. 4. Cynthia- Same reasons as you, Speedy. 3. Champion Lance- He has 3 Dragonites! THREE! 2. Rematch with Pheobe in ORAS- Diverse team, cute, and powerful. 1.Wally in ORAS at Victory Road AND Final Wally at Battle Maison- Fairly balanced team, EPIC MUSIC, and his Mega Gallade caught me off guard.
+Speedster I have had the same experience with Red when I played the original games. Red was too hard to reach and I witnessed my big brother fighting him. Then I defeated him in HG/SS. It's seemingly more forgiving in the remakes because of less limitations than before. I respect you a 100% for putting Miror B. in your list. He's so freaking awesome.
I'm okay with red being at the bottom of the list I really am, it's his own opinion. But I know that a lot of people including myself, will always find red vs gold to be the most legendary of matches!
DragonSlayerGU I know, and imagine being a kindergartener, trying to beat him. I think Game Freak gave his Pokemon bad evs and Ivs some would at least have a chacne
I'm really not. He seems to emphasize stuff like "this battle is special because you get to show you're powerful enough to beat your dad" and "it's fun beating this guy down cause he's evil". With that logic Red was probably the most impactful of them all. You get the fight the original Pokemon master, the iconic face of pokemon. Seems to me like he just put it at no.10 for the video to look edgy.
In the section with Wally, you should've at least mentioned the fact that he also plays the role as the superboss of the game, gaining a freaking Gale Wings Talonflame.
#10: Red was really easy for me in SoulSilver (But that's only because I borrowed my friend's insane Lv. 100 Pokémon. Otherwise, he would've kicked my ass. I was 9.).#9: Don't really remember much about it.#8: Too much like Barry for my taste (Barry was the only bad part of Platinum in my opinion.)#7: He was a total dick.#6: The post-battle scene in ORAS almost made me cry.#5: WHERE DO I BEGIN?!? a) "SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE DUCKS!" Funniest. Line. Ever. b) We need Mega Ludicolo. c) Miror B. for Gen 7 champion! d) MIROR B. FOR SMASH!!!!! E) LUDICOLO FOR SMASH!!!!!#4: So happy when I first beat her in Platinum. Also, apology accepted.#3: Steven wasn't memorable for me, but he's still a great fight, and the battle theme is great.#2: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Victory Road Wally battle is amazing. Also, another difference in this battle is that his coat is unbuttoned compared to the other battle.#1: I hate his Archeops. I lost to him countless times because of that Archeops.
Good list overall, but it seemed like you were too concerned with justifying putting Red at #10. People will give you shit for it sure, but you don't need to spend almost the entire segment, and part of the next segment justifying that decision. Say what you like about it and move on.
***** Mine is: 10- Blue 9- Lysandre 8- Champion Alder 7- Zinnia 6- Your rival in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum 5- Hugh 4-Norman 3-Ghetsis 2-Colress 1- Divided into 3. Miror B.; Wally from ORAS; and... N.
Normally, I'd say Zinnia's final battle would be on this list, except for the fact that YOU GET A FUCKING MEGA RAYQUAZA RIGHT BEFORE THE BATTLE. now, if we got the Rayquaza after the battle with her, then I'd put her on the list.
Even though I've played all the games, I freaking love the ORAS wally battle. Rose petals flying in the background while some feels music is playing the background...man that was fabulous af.
For the time of its release I do appreciate this list and the way you ordered things. However, restricting this to only the main series games (Pokémon Colosseum and XD are side series which relates to the main series and are not spin-offs) makes me wonder if considering the spin-offs would make this list a bit more diverse. I would imagine that the fight against Primal Dialga in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky would fit very nicely on this list for its purpose within the story as well as the music and what's at stake, not to mention the difficulty.
Hugh is literally my least favourite character in the entire franchise. I found him whiny and unsympathetic and he kept breaking the flow of the story. When you want to go to the crater to deal with Team Plasma he's like "LOL why not get the 8th badge first?". He spends the entire game looking for a single Purrloin that his little sister probably hardly remembers and could be easily replaced.
When you started talking about wally and how he only trained his pokemon to follow in my/your footsteps. It hit me like a ton of feels. Me being on the varsity football team means a lot of younger football players look up to me and it just got me.
You shouldn't underastimate Red he deserved to be a pokemon master after all the hard work he done and even in the game he is using good battle strategies if it was so easy for you to defeat him in ss and hg that means you probably got lucky that all and lets be honest if Red continued his adventure beyond Kanto he would slaughter everyone from your list
Dale Smith he still want to catch mew and still after him its something that no one ever tried to do bro only that show how much serious he is about pokemon and to do the thing that no one dared to do
When I fought N I wasn't sure if I wanted to fight. Sure, I was against his plan, but I respected and liked him so much that I didn't want to fight. Either way, it was an excellent fight that I really appreciated having put at the top.
That battle against Wally at Victory Road in ORAS is such an absolute satisfaction. Mega Gallade, Badass battle theme, Great battlefield, totally-determined sprite, all of that is just AWESOME! (Great job gamefreak) (I don't even care about how easy Wally is when you face him in Victory Road :P)
Daniel-Olivier Pepin That is not an official Pokemon game, it is fan made. Usually such games are not considered for lists unless specifically specified.
Hey, me again. Looking back again after now 6 years (Speedster come back, at least tell us what’s up), I almost universally agree with this list. Especially the top 3 spots. And it still holds up! Really wish Speedster came backs some day.
Wally made me break down in absolute and utter TEARS, this was the battle that broke me, and I cried for ages, not only while fighting him, but after too. It was just too freaking heartwrenching, along with the mix of pure nostalgia, and childhood memories, I cried, for a long time.
Oh geez. O.O I have to give this video a like and a huge thumbs up just for Miror B. He was so fun to deal with in those games! And yes, that theme is my jam too. :P I still need to finish the video, but you are one smart smart man.
You know, even though it doesn't really count as a pokemon battle, the battle between the player and deoxys in oras was freaking amazing for me. The buildup, the rayquaza, and the music (ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC, which I always use when I'm battling my friends on line) just made the battle feel amazing
+Speedster Red is the best in terms of his actual lore etc. Creators of pokemon stated that if they made it the way the lore is supposed to be, no one until now wouldve beaten Red. ^^
I very rarely comment on Pokemon videos but because of what you said about Wally I felt I had to. Everything you said was very true. I never picked up on the ball throw change that was a good eye on your part. The transformation on his part was really impressive and how rapid he did it was just as impressive considering the head start you have when you have your first battle. The fact he uses a mega Gallade was icing on the cake seeing as I am a huge fan of the fighting type, but I guess considering its counterpart was used in X and Y it totally made sense while not taking away from it.
Love you vid's they are very interesting and you have a very good voice to listen too :) some are just arrrrrrr..... but you make so much more existing :)
#1 Should always be Youngster Joey, because he is the most iconic first fight in all of gaming.
It's HIS opinion, ya ragamuffin.
Bad Day?
Nope. I just like saying "ragamuffin".
joey isnt iconic, hes annoying. hes only famous.. no infamous because of his ridiculous habit to call you every 2 minutes

You know the funny thing about Colress is this....
He wants to find out what brings out the greatest strength of a Pokemon, which was said to be the bond between Pokemon and trainer. Then in the next generation Mega Evolution was introduced. Foreshadowing?
@@wills3210 And appears in Gen 7.
WALLY TRAINED A RALTZ THAT KNEW ONLY GROWL AS HIS STARTER WHY WOULDN'T YOU BE FREAKING PROUD OF THAT KID
I guess you could call it a... Struggle

Steve-K-Bo Boland or he used tm's
Robin Kouwer Because you are a Pootis.
DragoonCommando 1235 wth?
My fight with N was one of the best ones I had. I deliberately didn't use any items that N didn't use and I came real close to losing.
And then you realised you had to face ghetsis without healing...
Cyrus says he doesn't make friends with his Pokemon. Then how come he has a Crobat?
He stole One maybe
Just imagine him snuggling next to gol bat with a serious and angerfilled face
AHAHAHHAHAA!! I did imagine that. Thanks, I died laughing.
AHAHAHHAHAA!! I did imagine that. Thanks, I died laughing.

THE SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE-DUCKS!!!
THINK OF THE SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE DUCKS
I admit that beefed up Wally fight had me speechless too! What can I say? The image of mega Sceptile and mega Gallade duelling in a huge field of flowers as a final obstacle before the pokemon league is just glorious! And thats not even talking about all the emotional weight Speed mentioned!
I’ve recently discovered this channel and I’ve got to say this. Speedster your one of the most underrated channels I have ever seen on this site. Your work is shown to really differ from other you tubers who only do weak editing and crappy videos. I have really enjoyed all your videos from the start and have grown to be a fan too. I hope your channel deserves the recognition it should get. Keep doing what you love and never stop.
I've actually been thinking lately, what if Norman was actually the FINAL Gym Leader? Seriously, think about it: the one thing standing between you and the Elite Four, after defeating Team Aqua and/or Magma, stopping essentially demigods controlling the forces of nature, going through all this shit, the final challenge you have left is your own father the greatest, most powerful trainer you've ever known...then you finally win and he grants you the final gym badge and sends you off to the Pokemon League with his blessing and tells you that you're the greatest trainer he's ever faced and is proud of you for making it this far.
That's... actually a REALLY good idea.
If Norman was the final gym leader or the champion, then I would love Gen 3 more than I already do.
My fav gen is 5; but if the gen 3 story had this twist, it would definitely be a tie. Po Co, take notice.
mirror-B is a boss amongst trainers i wish he was in the main games
Runedrace And well the Main Character in Colloseum is pretty boss as well
Given that he actually isn't a young kid (or well at least he doesn't seem as young at least) and he is pretty awesome with him exploding the hideout of (whatever their name was again)
And well he just looks cool
(In my opinion anyways)
+Runedrace Miror B. for Gen 7 champion! Mega Ludicolo!
If you decide to rematch Colress, (on the Plasma Frigate), he gives you a SECOND master ball.
EXPLOSION (Walnut lol)
It was amazing. I, even got kind of a bit emotional with Wally's story. It's amazing how emotionally invested we become. And your narration is brilliant (y)
The Google icon? That's the Explorer icon...
Oh, god, I have no fire pokemon...Colress will wreck me when I get there...
Mister Spade Oh, n' Wally was my favorite.
+nicholas baum And Fighting type 😊
+Mister Spade hey, i had no fire pokemon when i got there in a Nuzlocke, i won quite easily. Well, not that easily, i lost my Mamoswine :C
Mister Spade I disagree
That feeling when you beat Cynthia's garchomp with a level 10 hm slave rattata that knew quick attack.
Mst3kfanatic1 Well FEAR strategy works pretty well against NPCs especially if they don't have anything like Sandstorm or Toxic
vaporterra i didn't use the FEAR strategy, that was my HM slave, and it's not like i was in a bad spot I still had all my other pokemon in good health i just "you know what people think this bitch is hard well i'm gonna beat her garchomp with my slave
Mst3kfanatic1 You sound like the "I caught a (legendary) with a Poke Ball" people on youtube. I'm sure if Garchomp's health was low enough you could've found someway to bring your HM slave Rattata into the battle and if Garchomp's attacks kept missing yeah you could've knocked it out, but ok?

Lance, Red, and N are my favorite battles. First two due to the impact they had on me when I was little (and the awesome music), third due to the story importance and atmosphere.
Dude the Editing in this video is literally Gold! The Music used for certain battles along with your editing gave me chills man!
Looking back over this video 4years ago, it’s still such a great video and I still tear up at entry 2 because I completely get what Speedster feels
I LOVED the battle with Wally, Cyrus, Barry and Ghetsis :)
niks... And Cynthia ofcourse. Yes, I love Pokemon Platinum :P
what about red I am so offices
Caroline Brown To be honest. I never beat him...
I love Wally. I've always loved Wally. Ever since I first played Sapphire I've loved Wally. Maybe it was just the novelty of having a character that sees you the same way we see champions.
Speedster!!! OMG I just discovered your page, and I fell in love with it instantly. For one, i also absolutely ADORE Pokemon. Second of all, I have the exact same team as your playthrough of White XD Plus it came with a shiny Excadrill. I love your account so much that I've rewatched some of your videos. Keep making videos, you're amazing at it.
Dude your list is awesome seriously this list was the most surprising and amazing list I've ever heard
I agree
+Its Alexandra me too... by I just want to say it...I DISAGREE!!!
i got goose bumps through out the whole list. i have so many good memories from these battles...
Y'know, I can only think of one complaint with Steven. WHY THE HECK WASN'T HE THE CHAMPION IN EMERALD? Freakin' Wallace...
Honestly, though, I think I like the music style of Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald better than OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire.
The sort of blaring sounds just makes the music sound more imposing. There are a few themes I like better in OR/AS, such as the rival theme and the rival theme that's only in OR/AS, freakin' Wally's GODLY final battle theme.
Well, you do get to fight Steven at Meteor Falls after the Elite Four.
***** there is no delta episode in Emerald
Kirbachu5 Because he was more interested to search for rocks :^)
Ha! I totally agree. Throughout the game, Steven is always saving your ass, and when he's not, he's usually showing you up by doing something cool and unexpected. But sadly no, Wallace just prances around in his flamboyant gowns boasting about some false reputation he has as the most powerful trainer
Kirbachu5 emerald has steven as the super boss
SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE DUCKS
this is the most devine words that i heard in my young life
my favorite battle was the battle against AZ in X and Y. earlier in the game an NPC explains that Pokemon battles used to be a way people understood one another and AZ battle's you because he wants to know what a trainer is. and the aftermath of the battle was a very heart warming scene
lauchlin yurchuk I remember that scene! I actually teared up at AZ's reaction to seeing his beloved friend Floette after 3,000 years... It was beautiful :*)
Elise Arainai yeah the way he was all shaking and trembling, it showed how human he was
lauchlin yurchuk I agree it was a meaningful and different battle. One sign of Pokemon main series games improving in storyline in Gens 5 and 6.
vaporterra although i wish they would have gave AZ and his backstory a little more screentime, give him a little buildup it would have made the ending a whole lot more meaningful
lauchlin yurchuk For me I felt what we were given is still a good amount, especially the detail of the visuals of the War of Kalos intriguied me. Part of AZ's personality was meant to be mysterious and if he was given more screentime that may have worked against that
I LOVED Colress Battle Music. I Used To Sit On My DS And Listen To It For Like 3Mins Before I Started The Battle.
Thinking about it, I can't personally say that, between Wally (ORAS) and N (BW1), one is better than the other. They're both intense battles for their own reasons. Wally because that weak, timid little kid that caught a Ralts as his first Pokemon (if the Pokedex has anything to say about that, then this shows that Wally is a kindhearted person) has grown into someone who was not only able to beat all eight gym leaders, but just barely failed the trek through Victory Road because he knew you'd be coming and simply HAD to face off with you before taking on the E4 (in my opinion, he did so because he felt beating you proves that he has the strength to take on the E4), which in of itself is a VERY impressive feat (assuming you don't have the benefit of being a player), while N's battle was a long time coming.

OH MY GOD I LOVE N SO MUCH! HES MY FAVORITE POKEMON CHARACTER
and he's a cutie
+Shauna Kostur you guys are like looking at Jacob Satorious' comments
...
+Red don't you ... Me!
...
What are the anime clips from? Because that looks WAY too good to be the regular B/W series.
They're from a special 7 minute long trailer for Black 2/White 2. Look it up and you'll find the whole thing. It's kinda amazing
Speedster Thank you.
Speedster And that's why I wish Pokemon had anime cutscenes :/
***** they kinda have in oras and may have in yz and xz if thats going to be teh next game
malthe petersen Not really. Those can't really be considered "anime cutscenes", more like really amazing models. It's not an animation, like, for example, the cutscenes from Persona 3 and 4
This video made me look at Wally completely differently.
What was your team in the mono-ghost play through?
Drifter (Drifblim), Spooksti (Gengar), Flux (Rotom), Forsaken (Spiritomb), Elegance (Froslass) and Lucifer (Giratina).
omg i named my giratina lucifer too!!!
***** Not in a story playthrogh. I used a Xerneas in my all Fairies run of X.
Speedster i totally agree with the n battle, was hoping for black and white to be in there, i still play pokemon although i havent gotten the new remakes of ruby and saphire i have x, black 2, white, black, pearl, soul silver, silver, blue, yellow, and saphire. i love the pokemon series, the story always seems to touch me and the views how you didnt know who was completely right and how you knew what the enemy actually was thinking made it amazing to me when you fight N. his ideas made sense and it was almost controversal in the way of gta 5 how you dont know who is right or wrong. this fight left me wanting more and i hope that N flies back on his dragon some day.
***** but they are so hard to get. It takes me like 50 ultra balls at the legendaries lowest health.
Here's my personal top 10.
10. Clair- Mostly for her reaction after you beat her.
9. Winnona- Her team can honestly confuse me, at times.
8. Skyla- Her anime appearance made me happy to beat her.
7. Wallace Rematch in the Delta Episode- His team managed to give me some trouble...
6. Zinnia- Her Mega Salamence is unexpected for first-timers.
5. Final Maxie/Archie- Both have great teams, themes, backgrounds, and Mega Evolutions.
4. Cynthia- Same reasons as you, Speedy.
3. Champion Lance- He has 3 Dragonites! THREE!
2. Rematch with Pheobe in ORAS- Diverse team, cute, and powerful.
1.Wally in ORAS at Victory Road AND Final Wally at Battle Maison- Fairly balanced team, EPIC MUSIC, and his Mega Gallade caught me off guard.
I'm guessing that you didn't know that blaziken was weak to ground type attacks back then
YES, YES!!! You included Mirror B! I loved that character I would be so happy if they put him in again or at least reference him somehow.
was the oras remake that good
Yes..buy it.
I agree. No Colress. GET OMEGA RUBY. GROUDON HAS BETTER ABILITY, CANCELING KYOGRE COMPLETELY.
+Andrew Ruffing yup (Definently use solor beam on water types charges INSTANTLY)
+Andrew Ruffing eh, my swampert shits on any groudon
However, i DISAGREE (sorry, I have to)
+Speedster I have had the same experience with Red when I played the original games. Red was too hard to reach and I witnessed my big brother fighting him. Then I defeated him in HG/SS. It's seemingly more forgiving in the remakes because of less limitations than before.
I respect you a 100% for putting Miror B. in your list. He's so freaking awesome.
(that moment when wally gets a shiny ralts...)
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF**************************K
Or when you have to faint that Shiny Poochyena.
I wouldn't mind seeing a shiny gardevior/gallade every time we battle..but no it goes back to being normal, disappointing
I'm okay with red being at the bottom of the list I really am, it's his own opinion. But I know that a lot of people including myself, will always find red vs gold to be the most legendary of matches!
DragonSlayerGU I know, and imagine being a kindergartener, trying to beat him. I think Game Freak gave his Pokemon bad evs and Ivs some would at least have a chacne
Chance*
I'm really not. He seems to emphasize stuff like "this battle is special because you get to show you're powerful enough to beat your dad" and "it's fun beating this guy down cause he's evil". With that logic Red was probably the most impactful of them all. You get the fight the original Pokemon master, the iconic face of pokemon. Seems to me like he just put it at no.10 for the video to look edgy.
That was the internet explorer icom
"Ladies and gentlemen, the king of Team Plasma, N!"
DID YOY REALLY PUT N AT THE FIRST PLACE?????
I love you.
In the section with Wally, you should've at least mentioned the fact that he also plays the role as the superboss of the game, gaining a freaking Gale Wings Talonflame.
VoidMiasma This
VoidMiasma a what? I'm sorry I couldn't hear you over the sound of my Milotic one-shotting his talonflame
Shaddup
I love the battle with zinnia cuz her team, her theme and her as a character and whenever she is around amazing music plays
I liked facing ghetsis
The Original's or Black 2 White 2?
@@magdamalerowicz1839 why not both?
We all fear his team, but we celebrate when we win.
Steven's theme is awesome. Its good I've beaten him about 14 times on my quest to get level 100 pokemon without cheating.
#10: Red was really easy for me in SoulSilver (But that's only because I borrowed my friend's insane Lv. 100 Pokémon. Otherwise, he would've kicked my ass. I was 9.).#9: Don't really remember much about it.#8: Too much like Barry for my taste (Barry was the only bad part of Platinum in my opinion.)#7: He was a total dick.#6: The post-battle scene in ORAS almost made me cry.#5: WHERE DO I BEGIN?!? a) "SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE DUCKS!" Funniest. Line. Ever. b) We need Mega Ludicolo. c) Miror B. for Gen 7 champion! d) MIROR B. FOR SMASH!!!!! E) LUDICOLO FOR SMASH!!!!!#4: So happy when I first beat her in Platinum. Also, apology accepted.#3: Steven wasn't memorable for me, but he's still a great fight, and the battle theme is great.#2: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Victory Road Wally battle is amazing. Also, another difference in this battle is that his coat is unbuttoned compared to the other battle.#1: I hate his Archeops. I lost to him countless times because of that Archeops.
You're description of Wally was perfect right in the feels.
Good list overall, but it seemed like you were too concerned with justifying putting Red at #10. People will give you shit for it sure, but you don't need to spend almost the entire segment, and part of the next segment justifying that decision.
Say what you like about it and move on.
Hey if you were popular for Pokemon Top 10s you'd be a little paranoid about the Red Fanboy Rage, too.
SOMBRERO WEARING PINEAPPLE DUCKS!!!! Makes my day everytime :D
Get it? Pokemon Black and White? Colress=Colorless? Eh?

Miror B for Sun and Moon
+Stephen Mooney HELL YEAH
+Rainbow Gamer RESPECT THE PINEAPPLE DUCKS!
+Optic Lens YEAAAAAH
Game Freak is able to do new complex pokemon version...BUT THEY CANNOT PUT XD OR COLOSSEUM ON WII U VIRTUAL CONSOLE!!WHY IS THIS A THING!?
Wally #1
The surprise, that determined look, that music, that scenery! Epic!
Normally, I'd say Zinnia's final battle would be on this list, except for the fact that YOU GET A FUCKING MEGA RAYQUAZA RIGHT BEFORE THE BATTLE.
now, if we got the Rayquaza after the battle with her, then I'd put her on the list.
Even though I've played all the games, I freaking love the ORAS wally battle. Rose petals flying in the background while some feels music is playing the background...man that was fabulous af.
biggest pet peeve: "gayaradous"
YEAH!!! The battle with Steven was AMAZING! I could deal with him pretty easily because I had a water type but hell, he was still somewhat hard!
Battle with red #1 all the way
For the time of its release I do appreciate this list and the way you ordered things. However, restricting this to only the main series games (Pokémon Colosseum and XD are side series which relates to the main series and are not spin-offs) makes me wonder if considering the spin-offs would make this list a bit more diverse. I would imagine that the fight against Primal Dialga in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky would fit very nicely on this list for its purpose within the story as well as the music and what's at stake, not to mention the difficulty.
Hugh is literally my least favourite character in the entire franchise. I found him whiny and unsympathetic and he kept breaking the flow of the story. When you want to go to the crater to deal with Team Plasma he's like "LOL why not get the 8th badge first?". He spends the entire game looking for a single Purrloin that his little sister probably hardly remembers and could be easily replaced.
Hugh = 50% Wally (bad parts)+ 50% Silver
Gotta love the emphasis you put on Gyarados name Guy-ara-dos, great video 🔥👌
cynthia wasn't that hard, i beat her in my first try without breaking a sweat xd, that garchomp it isn't as powerful as you say xd
+GameplayWorldxd vf did you use legendaries or overgrind
ho weijian no, i don't like using legendaries, i use a regular team, because i found cheap using legends with everyone
ho weijian and my team, some pokemons were like 12 levels under the her team, and even with that, i had no problem with her xd
+GameplayWorldxd vf erase the* please :v
+GameplayWorldxd vf agreed.Legendaries are for kids who can't win
When you started talking about wally and how he only trained his pokemon to follow in my/your footsteps. It hit me like a ton of feels. Me being on the varsity football team means a lot of younger football players look up to me and it just got me.
You shouldn't underastimate Red he deserved to be a pokemon master after all the hard work he done and even in the game he is using good battle strategies if it was so easy for you to defeat him in ss and hg that means you probably got lucky that all and lets be honest if Red continued his adventure beyond Kanto he would slaughter everyone from your list
Kingofmine King If red is so good, why was he discontinued after gen 2...
Dale Smith he still want to catch mew and still after him its something that no one ever tried to do bro only that show how much serious he is about pokemon and to do the thing that no one dared to do
Kingofmine King Ash has befriended every legendary.....
Dale Smith but he didn't catch them and that what Red did he caught them and now he is after mew
Kingofmine King The point is that he didn't need to catch them. Part of Ash's story is that he values Pokemon more than their battl ability.
When I fought N I wasn't sure if I wanted to fight. Sure, I was against his plan, but I respected and liked him so much that I didn't want to fight. Either way, it was an excellent fight that I really appreciated having put at the top.
bro colress is insane in the rematch, one of my hardest battles in white 2.
That battle against Wally at Victory Road in ORAS is such an absolute satisfaction. Mega Gallade, Badass battle theme, Great battlefield, totally-determined sprite, all of that is just AWESOME! (Great job gamefreak)
(I don't even care about how easy Wally is when you face him in Victory Road :P)

**AIRHORNS INTENSIFIES**
What about the 8th gym (fire double battle one with the sun) on pokémon zêta/omicron
Daniel-Olivier Pepin That is not an official Pokemon game, it is fan made. Usually such games are not considered for lists unless specifically specified.
Still hardest battle
I did that yesterday; I never want to do another tag battle again.
Hey, me again. Looking back again after now 6 years (Speedster come back, at least tell us what’s up), I almost universally agree with this list. Especially the top 3 spots. And it still holds up! Really wish Speedster came backs some day.
I love that you don't guide yourself by what most people say, keep it like that!
you dont know how glad i am you mentioned the xd battle theme, so FRICKIN GOOD
I just realized that this video’s intro is a techno remix of Wally’s theme.
Wally made me break down in absolute and utter TEARS, this was the battle that broke me, and I cried for ages, not only while fighting him, but after too. It was just too freaking heartwrenching, along with the mix of pure nostalgia, and childhood memories, I cried, for a long time.
hugh is the best rival (mainly he was my first) but I think he is so great
"Sombrero-wearing Pineapple Ducks!"
I'm dying XD
Oh geez. O.O I have to give this video a like and a huge thumbs up just for Miror B. He was so fun to deal with in those games! And yes, that theme is my jam too. :P I still need to finish the video, but you are one smart smart man.
Speed: Explains how Wally goes through more character development than anyone in the series.
Hop: Allow me to introduce myself
You know, even though it doesn't really count as a pokemon battle, the battle between the player and deoxys in oras was freaking amazing for me. The buildup, the rayquaza, and the music (ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC, which I always use when I'm battling my friends on line) just made the battle feel amazing
AnAs1anK1dd they should have left out the zinnia shit and just had that fight
1: Zinnia
2: Cynthia
3: Archie
4 and 5 (tied): Steven and Wally
6: N
7: Cyrus
8: Red
9: Iris (B/W2)
10: Yveltal/Xerneas
Dang that #2 though. Super Deep. Nicely done
+Speedster Red is the best in terms of his actual lore etc. Creators of pokemon stated that if they made it the way the lore is supposed to be, no one until now wouldve beaten Red. ^^
I almost cried because of how happy I was to see N as #1
I very rarely comment on Pokemon videos but because of what you said about Wally I felt I had to. Everything you said was very true. I never picked up on the ball throw change that was a good eye on your part. The transformation on his part was really impressive and how rapid he did it was just as impressive considering the head start you have when you have your first battle. The fact he uses a mega Gallade was icing on the cake seeing as I am a huge fan of the fighting type, but I guess considering its counterpart was used in X and Y it totally made sense while not taking away from it.
When it shows #10, #9 (etc), what's the song?
Zinnia's battle theme (yes, I know this is a VERY late reply)
your theme song at the beginning us wallys battle theme from alpha sappaire , right
Love you vid's they are very interesting and you have a very good voice to listen too :) some are just arrrrrrr..... but you make so much more existing :)
Seeing Wally's character growth... It fills you with determination.
yep determination indeed
+Katrinasis Undertale references on a Pokemon video? Please don't
+LifesGoodGaming I'm sorry about the undertale reference I'm not even in the fandom anymore ;-;
It's cool. Just tryin' to get a few chuckles.
+LifesGoodGaming thank
I'm sorry, that name of your Mega Swampert caught me off guard because I was laughing so god damn hard xD
My man, I was starting to think I was the only person who really liked the battle with n AND Really love gen 5.
did anyone else start dying of laughter when he said sombrero evening pineapple ducks?😂😂😂
"Sombrero wearing pineapple DUCK"
Me:*Dies of laughter*
Wally’s final battle music is an absolute masterpiece!!
What is the name of hughs theme and what is the name of the music that plays during numbers ?
7:20 where did take these clips i want to see them ?
I love Cynthia! She has the best theme in all of Pokemon imo and a very good team/battle.
Wait so i killed red and I didn't even know(i was a noob) and i killed his pokemon with a friction lvl 64 gar chomp my brother traded me lol!!
