On the day of his retirement, it got me to thinking, man am I glad MatPat reacted to your channel. I mean this in the greatest way possible, your channel reminds me so much of old school GT. As for the theor--uh, spoilers, I think this is solid! I hadn't considered Ratatoskr being people, but it makes a lot of sense. There could be a cool build up to Zygarde by running into (and probably displacing) cells throughout the game, or maybe you rescue one from the industrialists and it comes with you and sees the good you're trying to do. Also 0:44 Massachusetts mention!!

I really like the mustaches you added to the characters, especially old man clemot

Come on algorithm!! Give this guy some love!!

Chiptide my beloved, always coming out with hype intros to his videos

Amazing plot. I really like the historical connections you made with the real world.

This is the direction I hope the game takes, and it'll be really cool to see what they changed with the gameplay, especially since in the original Arceus game there was already one single point to build up in that game which this could do better. ... And AZ just shows up to lore dump and be mysterious. You know, because he can.

This is such a compelling video! I can definitely see that a lot of hard work and research went into this, and I'm betting you're 100% right on the money!

"that napoleon" implies it was napoleon I (the one who caused the napoleonic wars) but in 1853 it was napoleon III who was emperor of fr*nce.

Interesting, we'll have to wait and see if this comes true!

Great story telling of the game to be! I hope more people like and comment so you can get seen! Great video!

these deduction skills are truly impressive. can't wait to see when they play out in the game!

I think that would be one of the coolest pokemon games ever if they did go that far pointing people as the bad guy. But i dunno if GF would actually do that.

Nice video!!

If I had two nickels for every video on this subject I've seen today, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice (The other one being Tam Valley Productions)

Wait… a businessman cutting down what just seems to be a weird tree and then a giant creature emerges? I didn’t know Gamefreak was making the next season of Monument Mythos

I personally like tyranitartube theory about this will be about the history of mega stone with alchemy and a battle between 2 sides one being the mega stone vs the ones that use battle bond pokemon and that A-Z floette has battle bond

Lesgoooo pokemon coverage

It’s so obvious The legendary pokemon that starts with the letter A? Arcanine finally gets his moment to shine!

My main problem with past is that... in XY there is no sign that the city has any sort of coexistance with pokemon. There isn't a single wild pokemon in the entire place, and its not like they haven't done that before, Castellia from gen 5 and Hau'oli from gen 7 both had grass patches in them to get pokemon. (Also more minor but, Xerneas and Yveltal sleep for 1000 years, and they only just woke up in XY, so they wouldn't be able to be in this game because they are in their slumber. While with future they could just still be awake from the events of XY)

Damn Richard, you didn't have to rub in the fact that X/Y came out 11 years ago 😭 that pause did some crit damage to my ego

Squirrel-man is going to have a full squirrel team

there's a reason why pachi won world's. The real mythical of kalos

This is way better than what we're actually going to get lol.

I thought you were going to say Ratatoskr was Team flare because in my head the symbol of team flare kinda looks like a squirrel tail. Also team flare are the bad guys so it fits with your theory.

So this is the origins of Pokémon? sounds like a cool idea rather than constantly battling the same Pokémons over and over

Funny how if this story were cannon sqiushy would make friends with one of ecureil's descendents i guess time heals all wounds

Squirrel!

bad guy's name can't be eqwhatever, it has to start with the letter A

Is this just the Lorax?

Are we the baddies?

goated

also the ð in niðhöggr is pronounced like the "th" in that

Game freak: FBI OPEN UP!

For some reason theorists keep making overly convoluted theories about where the ultimate machine fire landed. Duh, the answer is Kalos people.

All these videos about starters and how the game will play and whether it takes place in the future or the past or both, where is the discussin fo potential Kalosian variants? I know thats a good way to invoke disappointment but still, the variants are where it's at, they are the cntribution this game has to generaitns beyond, nto the Lumiose redevelopment plan or whether you can have Torchic or Fennekin as yur starter.

Algorithm boosting comment go!

Imagine with how confident he was at the beginning if he's completely wrong

No, you don't. Objective fact. The end.

All B$! When did Gamefreak start putting so much importance and detail into their game. 😂 They just give you garbage and milk out the money. You fanboys are happy and the company is happy.

No, not *that* Napoléon. That's Napoléon III. He's the famous revolutionary's grand-nephew who installed himself as emperor after being elected president and the liberal revolutions of 1848. Massive oversight ngl. Napoléon had been dead for like 30 years in the 1840s
