      Uh. I don’t know what this guys deal is, but even in the first episode, Barry’s lightning is yellow. It’s always been YELLOW. It will always be YELLOW! It was never orange. It may have been a shade of yellow that looked orange but they might have been trying out difference special effects and over time, as the effects got better, so did the color of the lightning. I always love this guy’s videos but someone has to set the record straight. His lightning was NEVER orange, it was and is yellow. It just look orange because the special effects and budget might not have been as good as it is today.

    Personally, this I why I dont like the Flash's recent seasons:
    During the earlier seasons, everyone wanted to see Barry get faster and become the legendary Flash that Eobard keeps talking about. Now, Barry is the actual fastest man alive and he is still nowhere near the guy the Reverse-Flash knew. He's still kinda naive and constantly needs advice from others, while Eobard makes it seem like his Flash pretty much has everything down. And it's not like Barry needs more time. In the original timeline, he disappears after four years, so he should've become the "experienced" Flash by season 4. Sure he's four years older in the original timeline, but in this timeline, he has had more years as the Flash, yet seems inexperienced. It just seems like right now, he's faster than he was in season one, but just as naive

      @@leonardocarvalho3823 Of course he's talking about that Flash. That's literally the Flash Eobard grew up and became obsessed with(till it became pure hate).
      But after killing Nora, Reverse Flash just changed the timeline and probably(never explained) erased the OG Barry we never got to know. That's also why he got stuck and couldn't go back. The paradox of changing Barry's life(the young Barry wouldn't become Flash) was catching up with Eobard's since he's Reverse Flash because of Barry. So without Flash, there couldn't be any Reverse Flash.
      But that's also a bad thing about it. If OG Barry got erased, why Reverse Flash didn't? Of course, then there wouldn't be a Flash tv show at all. So the writers played a plot device and let Reverse Flash just get stuck in that night... But never explained why that happened and he didn't just vanish(as he should have). And again, Idon't remember they ever explained what happened to OG Barry at all.
      I want to believe that if OG got erased, the reason Reverse Flash didn't was because... I don't know. Maybe it took 15 years for the timeline to merge... But that long? Not when season 3 happened and it took Barry just a few episodes to start losing his memory from the previous timeline(from the Nora's death to the last episode of season 2).
      Want to know what happened? Lack of actual research about how a time travel theoretically works and a lot of inconsistency from the writers. That's what happened with this show.

      Nicolas S. Wait, (I think) OG Barry didn’t get erased, he just never became the Flash. He just became a regular dude, which is why Eobard also became just a regular dude. That’s why Eobard makes sure the next Barry (the young kid Barry he originally was gonna kill) becomes the Flash & mentors him.

    2020 Barry doesn’t exist!!! Here is the whole timeline explained : 1st timeline: Barry Allen gets struck by lightning in 2020 and becomes the regular flash from the comics, centuries later an obsessed Eobard replicates the accident and becomes the flash, but he soon learns his destiny is to become the exact opposite of the flash,his nemesis, The Reverse Flash. Then he starts to hate The Flash and travels back in time to kill him.
    2nd timeline (was not explained in the show): Thawne goes back to 2015 and learns about The (comic book) Flash’s True Time-period and identity, he travels back to the future to see if he had effected the time-line which he hadn’t YET...
    3rd timeline: The Reverse Flash is traveling to the past to kill Barry but as he is running through time Barry joins him and the battle of the Past and Future begins. They arrive at Barry’s home that Dark night and as Barry’s parents were about to drink wine, the wine suddenly appears to be losing it’s weight but no... Barry and Eobard speed into the living room and punch, kick and drag each other as they run in circles. Barry’s mum is in the middle of the fight watching the lightning surround her. 13 year old Barry and his father Henry are helplessly watching as Nora screams for help. Henry tells young Barry to run and in a blink of the an eye The Flash runs young Barry out of the house and ( probably because of a time paradox he fades out of existence) he vanishes leaving The Reverse Flash with his helpless mother. Mother is killed, Dad is framed and the Reverse Flash loses his connection to the speed force since the speed force was created by 2020 Barry when he was struck by lighting ( the speed force is time and space it self and it technically exists even before its creation) Thawne lives the life of Harrison Wells so he can give this timelines Barry super speed so he can create the speed force in 2014 (6 years early) and so Thawne can go back to the 25th century *season 1 events occur, time travels blah blah blah and Thawne is killed by Edie*
    4th timeline : The Thawne that time travels to past to find out Barry’s identity in the second timeline can no longer go to a timeline that doesn’t exist so he goes to the third thus creating a new time line where he is caught by the flash and Cisco suffers from the alterations to the time and Barry is forced to release Thawne so he can fulfill his destiny *season 2 events occur blah blah blah Barry suffers from Zooms Wrath and the lose of his father goes back in time to fix every thing and create flash point*
    5th timeline: Flash knowing who Eobard really wants to kill, goes back in time and takes the 2020 Flash’s place in the fight since the 2020 Barry was ERASED from Existance. Wins the fight with the Reverse Flash and Flashpoint happens blah blah blah.

      I always thought that timeline never existed given the 2024 newspaper clearly detailing the events before Future Flash and Reverse Flash went back in time. The 2020 timeline Eobord mentioned before he murdered the original E1 Wells was most likely the outcome of that moment before Wells’ identity was stolen, Barry never became the Flash and the particle accelerator didn’t happen until 2020. We know Eobord can see different future outcomes as the newspaper article changes multiple times in the show depending on the current events and the outcomes it leads to. Thawne stepping in and taking Wells’ identity set the timeline down it’s original path, thus the 2020 timeline never existed. If the 2020 timeline did exist, it’d be a major time paradox.

      When Reverse Flash killed Barry's mother that caused catastrophic changes to the timeline. And as a punishment he lost his speed and needed to create new Flash. By doing that he erased the future that was supposed to happen. So with that Barry get his speed earlier, and all other stuff happens.

The barry of the season, one already had the orange light is the original flash had four years of experience ☠️☠️ so it's as if you were saying that the barry of season 1 who has not even 1 years of experience was faster than ogi Barry who had 4 years of experience because our trained with thawn who was slower than ogi Barry?!☠️ Besides, the comment is from four years ago.

    Actually ‘future Barry’ is from a whole other timeline. It was revealed in season one that Eobard’s Barry became the flash later than our current Barry. He still had his mom and dad and he still went through the same particle accelerator explosion just at a later date. This still holds up because Reverse Flash went back to kill Barry’s mother so Barry WOULDNT be the Flash. There actually is a reason why he’s slower. In the comic books, the speed force allows a speedster to take kinetic energy from objects around them to boost their speed, that could also explain Flash Time and why everything is slower in general when he’s going so fast. So if Flash and Reverse Flash are constantly changing kinetic energies there has to be a balance, and if Reverse Flash was slower, the overall balance will be slower. The only reason Reverse Flash in season 1 was faster was because of the tachyon device, and Zoom was faster because of the velocity drug. Without those factors they would’ve went the same speed. And we also know that concepts from the comics translate to this show.

    People keep pointing out this Barry is from 2020 particle explosion, judging by the fact that we know 2020 particle explosion was ONLY from ONE scene in the show (Eobard talking to the original Harrison Wells), I believe Eobard was lying to Harrison Wells OR he was given false information, perhaps from the Flash museum (because Eobard is from the future and Nora West-Allen pointing out some info in the museum were wrong in season 5 episode 15). This means Barry Allen from this scene could potentially from 2014 particle explosion.
    Also Wally West in the Legend TV show (season 3) said Nora Allen's death is a fixed timeline. Means whatever you do, you can't interfere with it because the whole timeline will be broken. If we see the scene once again, Barry from the future was actually trying to lure Eobard Thawne, trap him in the past, keeping the timeline intact. This scene reminds me of Savitar's plan. He tried to "create" himself by killing Iris West, but his plan is intervened because it's not a fixed timeline.
    Btw remember the original Eobard from season 2 episode 10? Harry told Barry that was his origin story. Eobard knows the Flash time period (he didn't say the year) and pretty soon he would try kill the Flash "for the first time" (2024).

  • @jagerdergroe8604
    @jagerdergroe8604 5 років тому +27

    That's an amazing theory but Ive another idea:
    We already know that the speed of Flash and Reverse-Flash is very similar and that Thawne might boost his speed with the tachion device. Gideon tells Thawne that time travel drained his speed. The lightning of a speedster with a natural connection with the speed-force chances according to his speed, brighter yellow for a slower speedster and darker for a faster speedster. Thawne has red lightning due to his connection with the negative speed-force. Since Barry time traveled after Thwane it would drain Barry's speed too, changing his lightning to brighter yellow.
    IN SHORT:
    Instead of Barry running slower, he's naturally slower due to time travel draining his speed.
    EDIT: we can actually see time travel affect Barry's speed when him and Nora travel back to when Zoom stole Barry's speed. Zoom was able to catch up to a way faster Barry!

    Actually, the writers for the comics have confirmed (or at least for the comics) that the lightning Color depends on Blue shift. Starting from red, ending at blue. Energy decreasing in wavelength but increasing in frequency bla bla bla... basically red being the slowest although still fast, yellow being moderate, and green purple then blue being the fastest. And so the Color of the negative speed force lightning follows redshift

  • @samcochran8203
    @samcochran8203 5 років тому +4

    I think that future Barry might still have yellow lighting at this scene due to the effect that the doplar effect has on light, because of how fast he's going from our point of view, his lighting is darker, so when he slows down, it gets lighter, but also it could be that this version of Barry, assuming this is the version that got struck by lighting in 2024, before Eobard/Wells changed the timeline so that Barry got struck 10 years early, is still relatively new with these powers, and that is where the light yellow comes in with your theory that your lighting gets darker the longer you have it. Also, your theory from the video works well too, and it's certainly more likely.

Saving his mother prevents the events that leads to him becoming the flash, thus creating a new timeline, erasing him. The reason future Barry shakes his head at S1 Barry in that case would probably be because, the fact that he's even there, means that he knows that S1 Barry's mother dies, and knows that he dieing would erase him from the timeline.

Probably becoming the lighting that struck our Barry in the first place to make him faster much earlier than his original career.

  • @hmongninjatsu1048

    The original timeline existed before!
    This is not mine explanation, but this is a good one:
    "Upon meeting Nora herself in 2015, Eobard realized she was Barry's daughter and asked if her name was Dawn. When Nora corrected him, Thawne realized that his actions in the year 2000 had changed the timeline, inspiring the West-Allen couple to name their daughter after Barry's late mother."
    Credits to the person who wrote that on Fandom, i agree with him/her.
    Because Barry and Iris was supposed to have twins (Don and Dawn). But ever since Nora Allen died, that impact the timeline, Barry and Iris ends up having one child named Nora Aest Allen after Nora Allen's death, ( I mean who wouldnt wanna name their daughter after the death of their late mom?). Now that proves that the original timeline did exist and thats why Nora West Allen was being erased. Because Thawne knew that Nora west Allen is an aberration (a person created from a different timeline,Like Lilly,Martin Steins daughter).

Eobard made Barry's life miserable, preventing the flash to be created, meaning future flash had no way to come to the past, leading to Thawne having no inspiration to have speed, he had to create the Flash we know today

      That's exactly what happened.👍 Eobard created a "Reverse-Flashpoint" where Barry doesn't become the Flash because Nora dies. Eobard then engineered the timeline with the Harrison Wells and particle accelerator stuff and made it so that Barry becomes the Flash BECAUSE of his mom's death. Now, saving her would prevent Barry from becoming the Flash. Eobard is pretty evil for that.

    I think its yellow cuz he has a true connection to the speed force

    This makes sense now this will probably be the colour of his lightning of the artificial speed force

      clowneyclown with the hat This version is from 2020 and probably didn’t destroy his suit every season

    The most likely answer is that it’s just the production budget that gives the yellow and blurry lightning back in the earlier seasons. But I believe that it begins as a blurry trail as seen in the second episode of the first season during our first view of flashtime, and as he begins to accept his role of the flash he gains more lightning and power from the speedforce as it sees he’s worthy, which is why his is orange now

    What would have happened if reverse flash killed Barry's dad instead of his mom

      Well Nora would probably not get accused for killing Barry’s dad so she wouldn’t go to jail and Barry would never go to joes and get closer to iris so he probably wouldn’t get the job with joe since he’s not living with joe so then he wouldn’t be in the lab when the lighting struck and he would of never became the flash

      Dally Dude Therefore, there would be another flash hosted by another person who could’ve not been chosen by the speed force so the flash wouldn’t be as powerful so wouldn’t be able to stop the other metas and potentially the metas could destroy the world.

      Wouldn't Barry want 2 find out who killed his dad and still work for ccpd and become The flash

      @@JustSomeGuyWithInfinity the reason Barry became a forensic isn't cuz he lived with Joe it's cuz his mother was killed mysteriously and he wanted to know how this he'd still be the flash
