    Good theory with:
    -Solid evidence
    -Use of accepted cannon sources
    -Lack of bashing on other people's theories on the subject
    This one is by the books people.

      You don't get to call it a theory if the manga confirmed it two decades before.

      @@SilphSpectre completely different from the subject but, did he ever say anything inappropriate about a 13 year old girl? I know there was an old man that was inappropriate with misty, but I specifically remember professor oak saying something bad too.

    I'm impressed how you took the time in uncovering all the evidence and acknowledging the incomparability between the anime and the other two canons discussed here. You've actually done a better job at this theory than some better known PokéTubers. You have the potential to go far. Keep at it! :-)

    It would make sense plus you can use Sun and Moon as reference because Prof. Kukui was in the championship league when you battle to become champion. Although he is not the first, the player is AND Kukui battles in the Royale similar to Oak in the manga.

      revived_ninja it may be that he grew a sense of guilt after seeing how some people such as team rocket used Pokémon as weapons and he dedicated his life from that point forwards to caring for and learning about the nature of Pokémon, saving battling them for the younger generation yet to learn the lessons he has.
      Just a guess though

      Maybe he just doesn't like to brag? Especially after Agatha calls him weak he probably feels like he doesn't deserve the title anymore.

    Okay guys, hear me out on this, next Pokemon game to come out...is actually just a prequel to ALL of the Pokemon games. Following Prof. Oak's storyline. How he became so interested in Pokemon, how he became such a visionary at his time to create a dex for their information. Leading all up to Oak becoming champion. I just thought that would be pretty awesome. =)

    Thanks for showing the levels (66 and onwards, whereas Blue/Gary Oaks levels are up to 65) too of "Oaks team". It looks like the idea in the game we know (just after beating Lance) was supposed to make the game more difficult in some way as a beta version.
    So the final edition we get is:
    No Lance is not the Champion its "Blue"/Gary Oak. You must defeat him first.
    And in the beta no Blue/Gary oak is not the Champion you must defeat the real Professor Oak first to become the Champion yourself.

    I wonder if after they were rivals as kids, Agatha began to want more than that as they grew older, and Oak more or less chose Pokemon research over settling down.
    Then again, Gary is his grandson, so...

    Professor Oak Pokemon is probably
    1. Charizard : Since Sam (Oak Past Self) using Charmeleon so it not suprising that he owned Charizard during his tenure as Champion
    2. Venusaur : Consider Red and Blue choose Charmander and Squirtle. it not suprising that Oak take care the remaining pokemon in his lab (Bulbasaur) and Train it to become a Venusaur and in manga He did evolve the Bulbasaur into a Venusaur.
    3. Tauros : Since he was competed with Agatha and winning the Champion againts her is not suprising consider Agatha is a Ghost Pokemon Expert who is weak in defense and Tauros is the strongest Normal type with great ATK
    4. Flareon, Jolteon or Vaporeon : in Yellow he owned a Eevee and later Blue/Gary Snatched the Eevee before Oak was about gave the Eevee to Red/Ash and who knows that he probably Owned one of the Eevee Evolution during his youth
    5. Exeggutor, Gyarados and Arcanine : The reason i put these three together because in one glitch during Red, Blue, Green and Yellow we can challenge Professor Oak with these Set Up along with Tauros and the remaining Starter (Venusaur)
    6. Ursaring : it just a Speculation but Sam was originally from Johto and Ursaring/Teddiursa was also from Johto when Ash travel with Sam to find the pool to heal Celebi they Encounter a suprisingly friendly wild Teddiursa and Ursaring when they lead Ash and Sam to the pool to heal Celebi

  • @alfonsopayan09
    @alfonsopayan09 5 років тому

    I think Oaks starter is Charmander
    Because in the games you’re red and if chose venusaur and lhis grandson will be choosing Charmander and likewise it’s also for
    Manga and video game matching (also anime because in the Celebi movie Young Sam Oak has a Charmander line)
    Dragonite for the mirage movie
    Taurus because it’s the only normal mon no one uses
    Atleast for me those three are a must

    See add one more thing which is that we didn't know the real champion of Kanto in video games whom blue must've challenged and we get directly to face blue so it must be oak and he must've successed or replaced blue without let him battle cuz we know how strong oak must be so it directly means that oak must be champion

    theyres dozens of reasons that oak could be soumoned to the indigo leauge, and i bet he helpt build the pokemon leauge after the war. and the only reason that i dont think oak was champion was that lance oak and blane were at creating mewtwo during the war.
