Pokemon Adventures: The Untold Story of Red and Blue's Rivalry
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лип 2024
- People remember Red and Blue's rivalry for a lot of reasons. Not just because it is the first rivalry we've seen in Pokemon games, but the amount of competition our rival brought to us. Always being ahead of us and talking down of us. And that satisfactory feeling of beating him when it mattered the most. But what if there was another version of this rivalry? That arguably did it way better? Well look no further. This is a story of how Pokemon Adventures redefined the Red and Blue rivalry.

It's a better rivalry than any of the games that's for sure. I'm not too huge on the first arc, but the rivalry between these 2 was by far the highlight everytime they met. Every encounter between them had some meaning and changed them somewhat. Not quite a perfect one, but I hope one day this level of rivalry will be common in mainline Pokémon.
Couldn't agree more bro. While this arc isn't my favorite one, there are a few special highlights that I'll always remember it for. And this is easily the biggest one. The fact that every encounter had proper purpose really showed that Mr. Kusaka had a proper plan in this the whole time. And I daresay he executed it very well. This easily should be the norm for rivals in mainline Pokemon and I genuinely hope that one day, they are able to accomplish just that.
Great vid, made me wanna bust out the manga and start over from the beginning
Really glad you enjoyed friend. Thank you very much! Hope your re-read ends up being enjoyable!
This reminds of the rivalry between Ash and Paul, and that’s probably why I love the two rivalries so much. Both Ash and Red develop the traits of Paul and Green as disciplinary trainers, and both Paul and Green adopt the heart of a pokémon trainer cause of Ash and Red. Their rivalry brings out the full potential between each of the two trainers.
Tho I don’t think Green would scold his Pokémon after they go down
Wow, watching this really made me want to reread the first arc! Having never played the first game, I can’t really compare Green in both stories. However, you did a great job explaining it to where I could understand despite having close to no prior knowledge of the games. This was a great video ^^
I'm really glad that you enjoyed the video so much that you wanted to reread the first arc. It's all the more motivation for me to keep at it! And wow, really? That's a bit surprising. But yeah, you weren't missing much. In the games, Green in no way develops throughout the story and stays as a douchebag. He may show growth in the GSC games, but nothing about him is elevated in the slightest. Which is a shame. But I'm really glad that my explanation was enough for you to connect the dots. Really felt that I could have done more haha. It looks like it was all good though!
Thank you very much my friend! Can't wait to upload more Adventures content! 2021 about to be filled with em!
Hot damn that champion battle sounds dope and further affirms my love for Poliwrath.
Bro it really was a thing of beauty! Had me smiling from start to finish. And same! Always loved Poli. Seeing it get the spotlight and be Red's first Pokémon brings me so much joy 😍
Just from their first encounter you can already see how much depth the characters have in comparison to the games, I wasn't aware of Blue/Green being that different
Indeed my brother. Indeed. Just goes to show how much different and great the manga is in characterizing their casts! It really was a special experience from starting to finish :')
I've played almost all the games and watched at least part of every single anime, but none managed to get me the same satisfaction as that final battle in Pokémon Adventure: Red, Green, and Blue.
The panel of the victor Red standing all bruised up leaning with a hand on his Pokémon is such a badass drawing
Now that's one well put together video, really enjoyed watching it
Thank you bro. Glad you took time off your day to watch it and enjoyed it! More coming soon!
Incredible. Really highlighted the glory of this arc and underrated rivalry. They nailed it every step of the way, and that final battle OML. Classic. Love the video, and loved the Walter White and other edits
I know right?? Each time I re-read bits of the rivalry, I keep finding new appreciation for this experience. I think this is the closest we'll ever get to seeing Pokemon portray a rivalry in how it arguably should be. And that final battle? Picture perfect.
Glad you enjoyed my brother! And also glad you liked the other references I put in there hehe. More coming soon!
Nicely done, I just watched all your Pokémon Adventures stuff back to back.
This is the most complete consideration of the manga that I've seen. I look forward to more.
When the intro is so sick you gotta try and learn it lol I love seeing the manga get some love man
Okay, this vid convinced me to subscribe. You explain the whole thing very well, why better than I would have despite loving this arc since the 2000s.
excellent video, really well done, and it’s on an awesome subject, i can’t wait for you to make more of these, definitely my favorite pokémon adventures chabdl
Means the world. Genuinely. I promise that there will be much more to come and hopefully on a more regular basis. Thank you so much for the kind words and strong faith 👊
I love their rivalry and friendship ^^
Your video was able to capture what I love about the rivalry :D
That was the intention from start to finish! Glad I was able to pull it off. Thank you so much for the kind words and watching! ❤
Great video man. Seeing what felt like a very authentic rivalry and eventual friendship between red and green was so much more satisfying than anything the games or ash/gary in the anime could ever provide. Also genuinely love red and green as individual characters, massive improvement on green compared to other versions
I'm almost finished reading DPPl arch which led me to this video. I forgot how great this arch was and very glad I found it!! Please make more I CONSUME this type of pokemon talk!!
Apologies for the late response! Thank you so much for these kind words friend. It's honestly a massive motivator and all the incentive for me to continue. Trust me when I say that there will be much more where that came from. And I am looking forward to showing you more 😁
THIS MAD DONT MISS. Another phenomenal video. I fell off of the manga for a lil bit during the Yellow arc but this is making me wanna go back. Much luv Uzi, another great vid in the bag
Brothaaaaa. Appreciate you as always for these super kind and supportive words. All the more reason for me to keep doing what I do. And ay man, I'm glad you're considering getting back to it! Guess I gotta drop the next one very soon to make you go all in on it! After all, that arc has a super epic finale that nobody wants to miss...
Thank you for everything as always bro
Great video looking forward for more pokemon adventure content
Thank you very much mate! More coming very soon, I assure you
This was absolutely awesome I love the adventures manga and I’m just gonna re read it now cause of this video I’m so exited to see that Blue video. She’s my favorite character would love to see and analysis on her.
Awesome video I totally agree with you. Thanks so much for the videos about the Pokémon Adventures Manga.
Glad you enjoyed my friend! All the reason for me to continue doing so. Super stoked for the other content I'm about to introduce to you!
This video is the best! Made me miss the Manga so much!
The music playing in the background is such a nice touch and I think I only just noticed it around 11 minutes in, lol
I only noticed it at the end, when i saw your comment
Great vid, loved watching it.
Much love my friend. Thank you very much! Just getting started now. 2021 is gonna be FILLED with Pokemon Adventures content!
Yo why does this channel only have 2.5k subs? The editing and script are fantastic!
Let's just say I'm finally finding myself. Doing this for years has been a tough experience in many ways than one because a lot of what I did or learned never got me the results I seeked. But now? It's all changing.
What you're looking at now is my ultimate passion. And it's in many ways than one inspired me to raise the stakes in more ways than one with every single upload! And I won't stop anytime soon.
Thank you so much for the kind praise. Truly. Hope you stick around to see me continue my path 😁
Another great vid Uzi, keep it up brother!
Thank you very much my friend! Just getting started now. 2021 will be our year 👊
You just earned yourself another subscriber
Means the world friend. Thank you very much! I'll do my best to not let you down ❤
Oh boy, I’m so excited to see someone talk about this manga! I’ve been watching your videos on it and man, you’ve captured what makes this manga so amazing in the first place! Definitely earned my sub! :D
Can’t wait to see you talk about more characters’ arcs like maybe Gold and Ruby (my favorite characters)
Can't tell you how much I appreciate comments like this! It's always my intention to capture this manga in all its glory, with these videos I make. To get supportive comments like this that say I'm doing it right genuinely means the world. Especially when all of this is from the heart and reflects MY feelings for this whole series!
And trust me, you will get all of that and more! Gold and Ruby also happen to be my favorite characters so far! I'll definitely have a blast covering em. And I hope you'll enjoy watching it! I'll do my best to not disappoint. Count on it!
@@TheUziGunner yeah i can't wait for some more character analysis vids! You should do Silver, his character arc is amazing despite it being the son of the bad guy cliche.
You're the best channel to make us non-manga readers hype! You enlightened me that the pokespe does really have the maximum potential in the lore of pokemon, thank you for making this kind of vids! Keep it up! I'm looking forward for more of your contents like these.
Apologies for the late response. I cannot say how much comments like this mean to me. Just reading this lifted my spirits so much and brought me genuine joy.
I started this for the sole purpose of giving the manga the proper recognition it deserves on this platform for its fans to enjoy. But I also had the intent of making sure that those who have not read it will be able to find joy out of it and hopefully know about the manga's true greatness. Your comment reaffirms my confidence and tells me that I'm moving in the right direction. And so I shall. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you enjoy my future ones about Pokemon Adventures!
@@TheUziGunner Looking forward on all of your future vids about Pokemon Adventures. Already subscribed and clicked the bell icon. 👍 Just take your time always and maintain the high quality contents. #nopressure 😊
I hope your channel will grow more!
Well damn. These videos are what I was searching for for so long. You sir, have earned a sub ! I'm very much looking forward to seeing more of the Pokemon Adventures videos ! ( can't wait for the FireRed/LeafGreen arc !! )
Thank you very much my friend! Comments like this are why I started what I did. And now I can assure you I'll stick to it until the very end. 2021 will be our year.
@@TheUziGunner You're welcome !
I'm glad to hear it- Don't overwork yourself though ! We can wait-
I miss your uploads bro, you had the best draft league content! 🙌🏾
Not done yet.
See you soon.
Honestly, that moment when Poli, Saur and Pika beat Greens Charizard got me hooked on the manga completely
Yo I watched the whole thing and it was amazing. Really nice editing as well
Thank you so much my brother! Glad you enjoyed the video! And hell yeah! Been learning some new tricks lately. Glad you found it worth while! :D
@@TheUziGunner ya I do enjoy these types of videos and will you do the rival video of the anime version
@@RizansJourneys Glad you do man. And not really no. I never liked how the anime and games portrayed these rivalries. Plus I'm likely to get hit with copyright strikes 😥
Oh ya I completely forgot about the copyright claims by the way do you know I also make UA-cam videos as well
You got me wanting to read the Pokemon Adventures manga!
Do it! The Collector’s edition came out last year and there are 8 volumes at the moment, I bought the first 3 last month and boy! I just wanna spread this version of Pokémon universe to everyone who enjoys Pokémon!
@@Boogsboogie Oh I will definitely! I already ordered Vol. 1, 2, and 3 from B&N! ;)
@@PrimeStarStudios mad respect!🥳
@@Boogsboogie Thanks 😊
Interesting seeing Charmander with it’s spine sticking out around 1:20. I noticed it at another part too. I’ve read all of these but it’s been a long time. Good stories though.
Finally someone is talking about this masterpiece properly
And he shall continue talking about it for many more videos to come! Pokemon Yellow arc review coming very soon ;)
WE WANT MORE!! WE WANT MORE!!
I really got back to this amazing manga.
That is absolutely amazing friend! Hope you enjoy it! More Adventures content coming very soon!
@@TheUziGunner I left of at Diamond and Pearl, but the library's closed and I didn't buy the books.
Cool stuff!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed
I feel Red and Green's rivalry is very brother like.
............. i love this version of the rivalry a lot more then the game on like this one their encounters had a reason and a purpose the game ones were more just yeah this is an obstacle bc your rival got stronger so get stronger and then in the anime it wasnt too good either but i love the manga one plus i just really liked the manga
While definitely not the best arc in the series, it’s a good starting point.
I wonder if theuzigunner plans to continue these adventure manga videos
Still the plan. The funny thing about dreams is so as long as you're still breathing, they never die. They're just waiting for you.
Currently, I'm in a phase where I'm using draft format to transition myself back to regular uploads again. All of this will build towards more Pokemon content, including Pokemon Adventures. I only ask that for now, you stay patient (and even check out my new stuff. I think you'd enjoy it). I will be back.
You’re right about this version of the rivalry being much more rewarding. I don’t like Blue (gameverse Green not to be confused with best girl) at all. I don’t get how he has so many fans or people say their rivalry is great. He’s just an asshole who doesn’t show growth until sequel games which sucks.
While Pokespe is great it is sad there’s no other rivalry like this again, closest thing is Gold and Silver and that one time Diamond and Pearl were in a fight. But the mutual growth continues to nearly every chapter (Ruby+sapphire, black+white, x+y).
Great video as always! Hope you had a happy holiday and excited to a future video on best girl
You mirrored my thoughts exactly. To this date, I genuinely disliked every single canonical rivalry in the games. The same even applies to the anime too as while I enjoyed Paul vs Ash's story, I think there were some elements they lacked in to truly make that rivalry reach that peak they easily could have. Green in the games has no character or substance whatsoever other than just being a prick. And while he does show more maturity in the sequels, nothing about him feels elevated for me. Just a downgrade. Which is not the case here.
And agreed. It's unfortunate that there are no other rivalries that told this similar story, but at the least, they managed to make the characters have great chemistry with one another!
Much appreciated my friend! Appreciate you a ton for all these supportive comments! We are doing well, thank you very much! And of course! Do note thought that it'll likely come out after I'm done with covering FRLG. Don't worry though! Heading into next year, I'm picking up the pace!
@@TheUziGunner honestly the biggest thing that hurts the games in that regard is that the player is a silent protagonist so there's no opportunity for any actual dialogue between the two. doesn't make for many genuinely interesting rivalries without expansions from the source material such as the manga or games.
@@azeryjanvier2320 Oh I definitely agree! The protagonist being silent does hold back from creating a fleshed out rivalry. Although at the same time, I'd argue that it involves other factors like every rival (Blue included) being a punching bag for the protagonist throughout the story. Making it lose all point of a "rival" and instead making them just another person with unique music. Made worse by the easy difficulty. While it'd be difficult, I think it is still possible to write a proper rivalry in games. Although it'd have to depend on dialogue options, cinematic scenes and other jrpg tropes to hammer the point in. All of which while there in Pokémon, is still very lacking at the moment. And the anime is too inconsistent with their writing to make a well fleshed out rivalry (to me i.e). But yeah. Hoping future gens write these rivalries better. It's becoming tiresome at this point
I think Blue not getting it even by the end of RBY and then having matured when you see him again in GSC is way more interesting way to tell his story than the cliched character arcs we usually get in the series. He's also just a fun antagonist with an awesome entrance theme in RBY.
The best thing about the manga is that they Acknowlege Green/Blue(depending on the translation) as the certified Pokemon Trainer, not Red because Red's strength is growth through Battle which in turn certifies him as one of the best Pokemon Battlers
Well the only thing I don't like about manga is that it follows the events of games except some arcs then also some special elements of manga makes it very interesting to read.
Hmm definitely see where you're coming from!
@@TheUziGunner Well what's your opinion about it?
Kalos gang is good in the manga so look forward to that
👀👀👀
I subscribed. What your favorite pokedex holder and villain? Mine are Yellow (good person.) And the mask of ice ( the villian.). What are yours?
Thank you very much friend! Hope to not disappoint. More coming soon!
As for my favorites. So far, my favorite dex holder is Ruby. He in my eyes has been the most fleshed out protagonist with the best on screen character development! As for the villain, it'd have to be Giovanni. The Mask of Ice was a close second that made me shed tears in the story finale, but I had hoped to have their motives get drawn out more. Especially when they ended up causing damage on the catastrophic and desperate levels they did. Giovanni on the other hand was exceptional. Every single scene he is a part of was brilliant and continued to leave me with even more questions afterwards! 100% the best incarnation of the character!
@@TheUziGunner that's some good choices.
HYPE
LET'S GOOOOO
Red is basically the ash of the manga but infinitely better due to his story being shorter
You should do a video about ruby and sapphire
I will cover every arc. And trust me, I am especially looking forward to Ruby and Sapphire. It's my favorite arc and has my favorite cast 😁
@@TheUziGunner even after diamond and pearl
@@alextelson4416 d&p is amazing
I read the other manga once and its safe to say the suthor smoked 800 fucking tons of pure weed
Which one? And damn, that's a big y i k e s
The one with the talking clefairy and bald proffessor oak
@@SnowBoy1008 OH MY GOD YOU ARE RIGHT 😂
Blue (or Green) of the Manga is just BEST than the game and the Anime, his growth and his ideals of becoming a strong trainer are fascinating. In the game and the Anime you hated him but in the Manga you love him from the start because represents more the gamer for training the pokémon to just battle everyone you see. More strategical and more realistic, this is the real pokémon... the version we needed to grown and not with that sh*t of Ash.
5:00 “Green...” “My name is Blue!!” This is why I sometimes refer to manga Green and Blue as the Turquoise duo, lmao
Edit: a second exclamation point!!
Let's remember the fact that red can talk
Yes. Yes he can 😂
He did speak in masters if I recall
I’ve really appreciated Red and Blue’s rivalry but there’s one thing I still don’t understand. Red didn’t actually win against Blue: he just defeated his Charizard and Machamp: Blue could still use his Ninetales. Moreover, Red used four Pokémon while Blue only three. That doesn’t seem fair to me
why did they change green's name to blue and vice versa?
Because when the games were brought to the west the third game Pokémon blue was already made in Japan and since Pokémon green was known to be a very buggy game they repurposed Pokémon blue to be the companion piece to Pokémon red when brought to the rest of the world.
My pokemon are exactly like Green's pokemon.
why did you switch blue's and green's name
I didn't. These are their original names. The localisers decided to switch their names to stick to what the rival is called in International releases. But by doing so, they created a big contradiction in this series.
The protagonists are known for having eye colours that match their names. Highlighted in the later arcs. Green (rival) has green eyes and Blue (female) has blue eyes. Just like how Red has red eyes and so on. Lastly in the FRLG arc, each of the original trio are the face of the 3 volumes in said arc. Where the colours of the volumes match their names. And one quick Google search should show you what they are.
So yeah. Minus this being how I got introduced to them, there's just way too many contradictions otherwise for me to stick to what the localisers did. Hence me calling them their original names. Hope this clarifies!
Shouldn’t Green still have Ninetales to fight?
does red try to kill charmeleon 6:20
LMAO, I got that reference. Seems our boy still hasn't learned everything about this reptile 💀
Zac: Green
The picture: **English translation name**
Viz had the cleanest print. So I used em heh. It wasn't like that when I started reading it 7 years back. So yeah. It's probably silly of me, but it wouldn't do justice to the memory I've made with both Blue and Green respectively all these years ago. My bad if it annoyed you :P
Oh
I mean, what I said was supposed to be a joke but the response became a fun fact
@@SnowBoy1008 Ahh all good then! Thanks for the clarification. Hope you still enjoyed the video! More coming soon 😁
@@TheUziGunner i did!
so why did Red's hair change from Black to brown?
GSC he had black hair
FRLG he has brown hair....
Probably decided to dye it like other humans do? Nothing wrong with that 😋
Oh wait his hair color changed? I always assumed it just had different lighting or something -- occasionally they do get the colors weird on the covers.
Can You Add Pyroar (Female) To Pokemon Showdown?
Where did this question come from and how is this relevant to the video? 😅
But to answer your question, I believe so yes
@@TheUziGunner I know it's not related to this video.
You're so freaking inconsistent with your names. You say you're gonna insist on calling him Green, even though that just makes it more confusing for your viewers due to him being called Blue in the games here. But then you go a call him Blue in the title and description to your video.
With good reason. I call him "Blue" in the title and description because that's a more eye catching title than being adamant with my belief and calling him "Green" there too. This is UA-cam. And as evident as it is, I'm not a big channel. In this game, everything matters. So I hope you don't hold it against me that I did what I needed to do to get more people to likely click on the video to see what I put countless hours of my life into because "Blue" is the more recognized name. To get favor from the algorithm. To break out.
As for your other bit, I'd like to bring to your attention that you're the first person in this video to point out the confusion aspect. I distinctly said that I would refer to him as Green because it's how I got introduced to him as a kid. And the fact that his name is "Green" in Japan is more common knowledge than you think. Regardless, I won't disregard your comment for it is genuine criticism on your behalf. I'll be sure to take it under advisement and make things less confusing next time. Thank you very much. :)
In hindsight, I definitely should have done a better job and said that this was his original name like I did in my other 2 videos. And me starting the video, calling him "Green" and only saying in the short segment that I'd be calling "Blue", "Green" is one that's bound to confuse. That was bad writing on my behalf and I apologize for that. Thank you for making me realize that!
I hate people like you who hate anime just because it is illogical, I have read upto the emerald arc and I have noticed many mistakes. If you think the anime is stupid because Ash's Pikachu hit ground type Pokemon with electric type move then go and see red vs Giovanni( the first fight not the fire red and leafgreen chapter fight) pokespe, red's Pikachu defeated Giovanni's ground type Pokemon with electric moves, and also in the same fight red's aerodactyl lost to tail whip, literally tail whip, a move which only lowers the opponents defence and it doesn't do any damage. And also the masked man's identity was such a failure, I expected a good twist but it turned out to be Pryce which was super predictable. And in the fire red and leafgreen arc, silver was literally shown in Giovanni's arms so the twist was ruined. Also if you think the anime is stupid for using power of friendship bullshit to make their protagonists win then go and see emerald chapter.
You are welcome to think the way you wish. And sure. Your points do who have some semblance of validity. Especially when I look at it in retrospective and see the flaws of the manga itself. However, I find the inconsistencies of the battles. Especially in the future arcs to be much less present than the issues shown in the very first arc, i.e Giovanni losing to thunderbolt. Even today 20+ years into its existence, these exact issues exist in the anime. Same with its continuity, plot (sans Sun and Moon which was great) among many other things. I will acknowledge your point on Emerald however and concede on that. Same with the Pryce reveal because they made it really obvious.
However I won't change my stance on finding the manga's world building, long term storytelling, continuity, character points and battling to be far less inconsistent, and instead well thought out and more sensible than the anime. Especially with its proper use of resources in the concepts of the dex and Science itself. That is my personal preference. Just like you have with yours. There is no "right" here because the opinion of a human mind will always be subjective. If my preference angers you, then I'm sorry you feel that way.
To end this, "hate" in itself is a strong word. If you genuinely find yourself resenting me over expressing my own thoughts. Over a series at that which I like to think I voiced respectfully without demeaning anybody, then there really is nothing for me to say. I hope you have a good day. :)
@@TheUziGunner sorry if I offended you :( .
@@TheUziGunner I will delete this comment if you want.
@@awesomenessft.savage7401 No offense taken at all friend. I appreciate you apologizing. There is no need to delete the comment because minus some words, this was your opinion. My only request is that you refrain from using such ill words next time, when telling me something, unless I warrant it for using harsh words myself that can be offensive in any of my future videos.
Always know that I'm more than happy to have a civil and constructive discussion with those that think differently from my perspective. That is after all the only way, we can develop a proper understanding between ourselves instead of breeding more hate. That is my approach at things. It's your choice to ultimately decide how you choose to approach things. Regardless, thank you for apologizing. :)
