+1DaBeStEvEr1 I think it was more so the fact that he was defeated by some random girl who had never used a lightsaber in her life, despite the fact that he was trained for years.
1DaBeStEvEr1 Eh, I don't really see why everyone hates the look of the guy. I am obviously annoyed about the fact that he looks nothing like his parents, but beside that I don't see why people hate him.
I kind of agree with Geodude. It also doesn't make sense it can float. If it dragged itself or walked on it's hands it would make more sense, but that would be creepy. He should have kept either Graveler or Golem as a one-off tho.
"... Soo-ee-soon..." Wow, that pronunciation was... different? But, I mean, who am I to judge? It's your call and I respect- "Lovey-tar, Poopy-tar, and Tyrany-tar." *Choke on drink.*
+Dixie Clementine He actually can be pretty decent if you get his special ability sand rush and get him on a sand stream team. Sandslash needs an Evo, but Sandshrew's my fave too! He's adorable! :(
+Many A True Nerd Jon, I suggest you make a completely separate video issuing the public an apology for killing everyone's favorite Pokemon, Sandshrew.
Talonflame is known in the competitive community as 'Smogon Bird' because of how much Smogon ( the primary competitive community) loves it, and it has been one of the defining forces of gen 6 OU. So no, it's not weak.
if it looks like a bloke it has to go...... but then you keep hitmonlee and hitmonchan..... i can kind of see hitmonlee because it does look otherworldly like you said . but then you say rydon looks like just a guy with a horn -.-
@@ManyATrueNerd Actually Sandshrew is an armadillo, while Sandslash is a pangoiln. Also losing those two means loosing their amazing Alolan forms. So your opinion is just wrong.
MrMagicMan101 It can't though! Haven't you ever seen the gen I sprite for Golbat? Golbat and Tentacruel have the best sprites in gen I and cannot be removed.
Fearow would work as a one-off vulture thing. It annoyed me that he got rid of the Pidgey family. I would've said go from Pidgey straight to Pidgeot or something.
47:26 The actual reason Octillary evolves from Remoraid is that their both guns. Remoraid being literally a pistol and Octillary being artillery. Remoraid is actually a really cool Pokemon once you notice that the fins on it are supposed to be the grip, the trigger, the charging hammer and a hammer, along with the pattern on its butt making it look like a classic six shooter. Underrated Pokemon.
Sandshrew is a pangolin, and while it's not my favourite, it definitely deserves to stay. Shedinja too. EDIT: Oddish, Paris and Parrasect deserve to stay too you monster. EDIT AGAIN: Grimer and Muk also need defending. Obviously you only need one, but they're pretty cool and horrifying as pokemon. FINAL EDIT: Cubone deserves to stay. It's got such an interesting design and holds a place in so many hearts. Just make it a pokemon that can only appear in the wild so it's story is less contradictory. Anyway, with removing Cubone my faith in your judgement has been exausted. Bye.
"A Venus fly trap sort of thing"... They're CRINOIDS Jon, I've never even heared of them before but one glance at their design and the fact they're fossil type? crinoids, definitely crinoids. Lileep reflects their common name sea lilies And the thing after it must be an anomalocaris.
So obviously stupid late on this but... Baby pokemon were added because the question arose of where do pokemon come from. With breeding being added to the game in Gen II they decided to add baby pokemon. As far as application they are the only way to get certain egg moves and add another layer to competitive breeding.
god I'm rewatching this and... "Lino-One" really jon. really. you never thought it was "line-oon" like a raccoon with lines. it had to be Lino One. that sounds like a spaceship.
I remember this coming out, and me being expected to go out with people from Uni, and I said no so I could stay home and watch this... This is the kind of content I stay for, I love the subscriber specials, and I want to say Thank You Jon, and Claire, for all of the joy you give me with each upload, from my first video of Fallout New Vegas No Kill in March 2015, to Unravel and the Tabby Cake, I love this channel so much
The amount of effort put into this video is astounding. Very few youtubers put their time into things like this while still keeping a regular upload schedule. I love it.
this video was wonderful! keep up the good work jon, and remember there was no way you weren't going to get rid of someones favorite pokemon. even if you got rid of everyones favorite pokemon. rip sandslash.
I know that you just spent all this time going through this Jon, but is there any chance you could post a quick list of the Pokemon you've kept in for any of us wishing to create the perfect Pokemon ROM for you?
After watching this a year after its release, I have come up with a Great Big Idea™: Let's have Jon play through a Pokemon game, using only the Pokemon he has on his list. He can fill his first six with anything, but as soon as he encounters a Pokemon on his list, if he has an "illegal" Pokemon, he must release it and use the legal one. Disclaimer - I don't play Pokemon, and have no idea how feasible this actually is. I just think it makes sense for a series.
I really like this idea. That would be great fun. But, I don't think he should be allowed to catch any of his illegal pokemon. Only the ones left on his list, several of a kind if necessary. (Yes, I am a bit salty about so many of my favourites being cut lol.)
Disclaimer: not all the way through the video yet, not sure if he comes back to these points. Removing second stage evolutions in starters for redundancy in design, but not removing Primeape? Huh. Also I seem to remember there being a 5th gen Pokemon that'd make a good second stage for Psyduck, but I never managed to finish Black, so I might be remembering wrong. Psyduck also has a pretty sad back story, btw.
hippos are cute... yes... with the giant hippo that is responsible for one of the highest kill-counts in nature and can apply hundreds of pounds of pressure from its jaws
not judging one of my favorite youtubers for their pokemon tastes but id like to point some things out the Ghost trees are based off of Ents, a form of mythical living trees that would protect forests Noivern, well, its a sound based wyvern, technically both dragon and not dragon Hoopa is actually based off of a Genie i think, and actually, in a recent move has been released with his Unleashed form, a giant 4/six armed bad ass who really likes fucking with spacial rifts (his rings) oh and its not nintendo, its gamefreak, nintendo publishes the games
+mattbenz99 Reviews Nintendo do not own Game Freak. Game Freak is a contracted developer but still a private company that is why they have been able to produce games published by Namco, Sega, Hudon soft and even Sony among others they even self-published a game or two once, infact there most recent game Tembo the Badass Elphant is published by Sega. However Pokemon has always been there most sucsefull franchise so they have stuck with them and Nintendo over the years a sought of "why change what isn't broken" approch What you can see in Pokemon.
+Many A True Nerd Jon, I would like to thank you for all the joy and entertainment you've brought my week for the past few years! I'm happy to see the growth of your channel is steady and that I've been here since the beginning (despite my new subscriber status)! Just wanted to commend you for your dedication to our everyday nerdy desires!
"Su-ih-soon"? It's "Swee-koon." I don't agree with every decision (Cyndaquil, nooooo), but good video nonetheless. Edit: I know you got rid of Ralz, Kirlia, and Gardevoir, but did you even mention Gallade?
Congratulations on 150,000 subscribers! Happy to become one of them! I found your channel about a week ago and spent the whole week watching your videos during my recovery from a surgery. Jon, you have an amazing sense of humour, I love how seriously you take games that you play and how open-minded you are about them. Who could have thought that gaming videos can be so...intellectual? Also, from now on you are my favorite teacher of English language on UA-cam! (I'm not a native speaker, obviously).
“I very much doubt anyone watching this video thinks Sandshrew or Sandslash is their favourite Pokemon” You sir have unleashed the wrath of 3.5 people!
Absolutely well done Jon for making it through all those Pokemon. I actually agree with just about every decision you made there, too. And at the end of it I'm glad that 3 of my most favourites made the cut (Absol, Skarmory and Scizor, if only barely). Congrats on your 150,000+ subscribers
I think it's fair to say there is no objective way of rating pokemon, and that's why I think we need more pokemon, not less. I'm not sure I understand the logic behind wanting less pokemon. The more pokemon made, the greater the chance of a pokemon coming along that you really like. Also, the challenge of catching them all becoming consistently harder is rewarding to long term players.
On some he bases on stats, on others he bases on logical design, and others it's just straight personal. He should base himself on all by the same rules to make it reasonable. Personally I feel any Pokemon design as a random inanimate object, or an object that already exists in a non Pokemon form , or multi-head or multi-entity in one should go.
@@PaulZeroSolis Klefki is based on the european (possibly pagan) belief that there are fairies that go around and steal keys when you leave them around. Kalos being based on France, and Klefki being Fairy type, makes it overall quite a good idea.

He mispronounces so many of the names and it is messing with my sanity so hard. They say so many of the names he messes up in the movies and shows correctly
I'm incredibly happy you kept in my top 6, though I think ridding us of Cubone and Sableye might have been a little harsh. Also I might just love you a little bit for taking the time to do all of this. - Kross
I get the feeling Jon's Pokémon knowledge is quite outdated as Dragonite’s usability did drop quite a bit during the 2nd and 3rd gen but since then it has been a solid and reliable Pokémon, I'm not a big fan of Draonite and Garchomp (my dragon of choice)especially with it’s mega is arguably a better Pokémon but to claim Dragonite to not very good is just so wrong. And of course Tallonflame isn’t any good that’s why it’s in OU tier on Smogon. I did see that a lot when Jon would make comments about the Pokémon’s capability they were often not that accurate like Mawile, Mega-Mawile is a risky but very useful Pokémon thanks to it’s ability huge power and defensive Fairy/Steal typing, as long as you keep it away from ground and fire types Mega-Mawile will do a *lot* of damage and can one hit KO even Legendary like Rayquaza and cripple Mega-Rayquaza with one hit and because Mega-Mawile has this potential its intimidating what leads to easy to predict switches that gives you a free Sword Dance or your own free switch. In the right hands mega Mawile can be very destructive.
+Name? I dont care. And neither does anyone else, i think most of this video is based on slightly outdated information but he mostly bases all of his opions on looks not skills, i mean with certain pokemon he definetley looked at their stats, but i think its mostly based off looks
For some odd reason this is suprisingly entertaining. And I'm not even the biggest Pokemon fan (only played the first generation as a kid) Well done Jon
I haven't played a Pokemon game since Yellow on the gameboy colour, yet I just listened to a guy talk about Pokemon for an hour and forty minutes. Well, if that isn't a sign you're doing something right, I don't know what is
"Talonflame was not that good" Erm, excuse me, you were going pretty well but that one just shows how much you didn't play Pokemon X/Y, a Talonflame with hidden ability was a nuclear missile coming your way, it was terrifying, most people in the community agreed it was a ridiculous strong pokemon... Also Dragalge is based on a Sea Dragon, funny you seemed to not know that: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leafy_seadragon
+Monsterstalker They certainly did at one point - I'm almost certain that was their Gen 3 ability. Has it been replaced with magnet pull or something more recently?
+Many A True Nerd Why are you keeping Diglett and Digtrio around when you are getting rid of Magnemite and Magneton? They're all part of the Let'sAddTheSamePokemonTogetherToMakeANewOne series of pokemon.

>geodude is just rock with hands - goes
>onix is cool, made of rocks - stays

A rock
Rock*s*
I think that's what he was going for?
Onyx is a giant snake make of rock. It's awesome. Geodude is just a floating rock with hands. It's dumb.
I kind of agree with Geodude. It also doesn't make sense it can float. If it dragged itself or walked on it's hands it would make more sense, but that would be creepy. He should have kept either Graveler or Golem as a one-off tho.

Talonflame is known in the competitive community as 'Smogon Bird' because of how much Smogon ( the primary competitive community) loves it, and it has been one of the defining forces of gen 6 OU.
So no, it's not weak.

Which bird was that again?
He also killed god.
Hey Jon, have you ever thought about doing a nuzlocke challenge on the channel for any Pokemon game?
Gets rid of Cyndaquil family
You sir have no taste. NONE.
I actually expected this to be an extreme Kill Everything run where you run around the street with an AK shooting Pokémon Goers.
Fearow needs to exist. It NEEDS to. Jon. Jon. You have to allow Fearow to exist.
Otherwise what Pokémon will I name Captain Jack Fearow
Swellow?
that's even better
Fearow would work as a one-off vulture thing. It annoyed me that he got rid of the Pidgey family. I would've said go from Pidgey straight to Pidgeot or something.
47:26 The actual reason Octillary evolves from Remoraid is that their both guns. Remoraid being literally a pistol and Octillary being artillery. Remoraid is actually a really cool Pokemon once you notice that the fins on it are supposed to be the grip, the trigger, the charging hammer and a hammer, along with the pattern on its butt making it look like a classic six shooter.
Underrated Pokemon.
Sandshrew is a pangolin, and while it's not my favourite, it definitely deserves to stay. Shedinja too.
EDIT: Oddish, Paris and Parrasect deserve to stay too you monster.
EDIT AGAIN: Grimer and Muk also need defending. Obviously you only need one, but they're pretty cool and horrifying as pokemon.
FINAL EDIT: Cubone deserves to stay. It's got such an interesting design and holds a place in so many hearts. Just make it a pokemon that can only appear in the wild so it's story is less contradictory.
Anyway, with removing Cubone my faith in your judgement has been exausted. Bye.

Coming next week: Competitive battling
this might be my favorite video in the last 7 years of watching youtube
not judging one of my favorite youtubers for their pokemon tastes but id like to point some things out
the Ghost trees are based off of Ents, a form of mythical living trees that would protect forests
Noivern, well, its a sound based wyvern, technically both dragon and not dragon
Hoopa is actually based off of a Genie i think, and actually, in a recent move has been released with his Unleashed form, a giant 4/six armed bad ass who really likes fucking with spacial rifts (his rings)

I'm incredibly happy you kept in my top 6, though I think ridding us of Cubone and Sableye might have been a little harsh. Also I might just love you a little bit for taking the time to do all of this. - Kross
not Digimon enough, needs more Saving of the Digital world. But no seriously, Enjoyed this xD
+DDLMXD Hmm, interesting. Well, I suppose that Digimon are the champions...
+Many A True Nerd 200k digimon special?
Digimon is shit
It has really shit haikus
Unlike fucking me
CONGRATS Jon, I know you'll be a HUGE UA-camr one day soon. You are my favorite UA-camr. Congrats Jon!
"Talonflame wasn't that good". Really Jon? Really? It could sweep entire teams.
also dragonite, weakness policy+ multiscale and a DD and things were pretty much over
I get the feeling Jon's Pokémon knowledge is quite outdated
as Dragonite’s usability did drop quite a bit during the 2nd and 3rd gen but
since then it has been a solid and reliable Pokémon, I'm not a big fan of
Draonite and Garchomp (my dragon of choice)especially with it’s mega is arguably
a better Pokémon but to claim Dragonite to not very good is just so wrong.
And of course Tallonflame isn’t any good that’s why it’s in OU tier on Smogon.
I did see that a lot when Jon would make comments about the Pokémon’s capability
they were often not that accurate like Mawile, Mega-Mawile is a risky but very useful
Pokémon thanks to it’s ability huge power and defensive Fairy/Steal typing, as
long as you keep it away from ground and fire types Mega-Mawile will do a *lot*
of damage and can one hit KO even Legendary like Rayquaza and cripple Mega-Rayquaza
with one hit and because Mega-Mawile has this potential its intimidating what
leads to easy to predict switches that gives you a free Sword Dance or your own
free switch. In the right hands mega Mawile can be very destructive.
+Name? I dont care. And neither does anyone else, i think most of this video is based on slightly outdated information but he mostly bases all of his opions on looks not skills, i mean with certain pokemon he definetley looked at their stats, but i think its mostly based off looks
6 level 1 Ratatas could beet any team of 6 level 100 pokemon.
beat
For some odd reason this is suprisingly entertaining.
And I'm not even the biggest Pokemon fan (only played the first generation as a kid)
Well done Jon
I haven't played a Pokemon game since Yellow on the gameboy colour, yet I just listened to a guy talk about Pokemon for an hour and forty minutes.
Well, if that isn't a sign you're doing something right, I don't know what is
Nice video MATN, can't believe you are already at 150k subscribers! Keep up the good work, can't wait to see what else you have in store!
"Talonflame was not that good" Erm, excuse me, you were going pretty well but that one just shows how much you didn't play Pokemon X/Y, a Talonflame with hidden ability was a nuclear missile coming your way, it was terrifying, most people in the community agreed it was a ridiculous strong pokemon...
Also Dragalge is based on a Sea Dragon, funny you seemed to not know that: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leafy_seadragon
Well, he also kicked Sylveon out so that should have been obvious.
Hugo Sousa so much passive aggressiveness.
Jon, I'm simply relieved at the fact you spared Totodile, which is my most favourite Pokémon ever. XD
Mfw Vaporeon is delete for Glaceon.
- Cuts Braixen
- Keeps Delphox
Thank you, thank you so much I actually love you for this. Delphox is da bess
Wait, Magnemite and Magneton don't have Levitate, Jon.
+Monsterstalker They certainly did at one point - I'm almost certain that was their Gen 3 ability. Has it been replaced with magnet pull or something more recently?
+Many A True Nerd Never had levitate. Sorry.
+Many A True Nerd yezzir magnet pull and sturdy
+Chris Adams 3rd or 4th gen had levitate.
+Many A True Nerd Why are you keeping Diglett and Digtrio around when you are getting rid of Magnemite and Magneton? They're all part of the Let'sAddTheSamePokemonTogetherToMakeANewOne series of pokemon.
Your welcome Jon. You deserve like way more subs and I hope you get way bigger than you are now! Good luck!
I seem to be the only one who doesn't like oshowatt. (Is that how you spell it?.)
+Courier Nope, I don't like him either.
Wow I am honestly surprised Many A True Nerd did not already have more subscribers. Congratulations! Keep on going mate!
