Oh you definitely need to see the explained videos for this series to accompany it

Pretty much all of the abilities the Pokemon show in the animation are taken from the famously strange and nonsenscial Pokedex entries seen in the games

Ya gotta bring ya fiancé on more you two cute af together.

So to clarify something, that one monkey pokemon is oranguru, according to the pokedex he's one of the few pokemon that are capable of understanding how pokeballs work and can use them for pokemon battles. And magcargo, the snail from the ball is apparently as hot as the surface of the sun according to one of the pokedex. Hence the huge explosion when it was sent out

I could just watch an entire video of your fiancé teaching you Pokemon.

I would absolutely recommend the explained video. Even if you don't react to it watching it on your own time since it's a very cool video

Alicia, you should 100% watch the Mega Evolution battle royal and the explained video by Locksten, they are both really awesome/informative

The Magcargo (evolution of Slugma) joke was taken from one of it's pokedex entries that states it's body tempature is around 18,000F, which is almost double how hot the surface of our sun is, which is why the second it came out of it's pokeball, it just caused a blue, nuke-like explosion. lol Lockstin breaks down every encounter in these videos, linked at the end and in the description. It's some fascinating shit tbh lol.

Lockstein and Gnoggin are really good PokeTubers (KZfaqrs that cover Pokemon stuff), mostly doing lore videos, though occasionally they'll come up with new Fakemons and Regions for said Fakemons (a Fakemon is basically a Pokemon not officially made by GameFreak, the company that develops the Pokemon videogames; in other words, they're concepts made by people who love the Pokemon franchise enough to want to create their own Pokemon, perhaps combining different typings not seen in the series proper or just because they think that it would be a fun thing to do), and, as you've witnessed now, team up with TerminalMontage, a talented KZfaq animator who does not _only_ Pokemon stuff, but ANY and ALL classic videogame franchise (I'm talking Castlevania, Super Metroid, Sonic the Hedgehog, Legend of Zelda, and so on) in their own gloriously-awesome, reference-packed, hyper-chaotic, ADHD- _and_ -OCD-approved shorts! 🥳🤓🥳😁 These TerminalMontage vids also usually have a lore and statistics based "Explanation" video afterwards; this being like Rooster Teeth's _Death Battle_ , but with Pokemon.

Absolutely recommend that you watch the explanation video, this animation is completely based on the video game Pokédex data of the video games. You might learn a lot about Pokémon that way.

One of the reasons why the video was so absurd was because the authors decided to accept all Pokédex entries as literal. So, if a game says that Tyranitar (the green lizard that got punched beyond the horizon) is impervious to all attacks, the author decided that Tyranitar _literally_ cannot be damaged by any attack.

Your Fiancé is such a nerd knowing most of the pokemons, he's cool

Love seeing your fiancé and you two interacting with each other, they seem so freaking awesome ❤. It's so adorable seeing your genuine excitement learning what each of the Pokémon are, as someone who has grown up playing Pokémon my entire life.

Never thought i'll be so pround of someone saying Charizard before

If you dont know, from Lockstin’s information, the animation pulls its logic from the game’s pokedex entries, thier competitive history, as well as with a hint of scientific/mathmatical speculation, things like how igglytuff can basically bounce forever, or how Magikarp can (theoretically) jump as high as seen in the video.

I must say, it’s quite adorable seeing you trying to figure out all these Pokémon Alicia. 😂🥰

To give more context to the guy who said to click on his video at the end. He is a Pokétuber named "Lockstin and Gnoggin" that gives out very good information about anything Pokémon. Whether it be game facts, theories, and even background information as to why a Pokémon exists and looks the way it does. And the way he presents his information with his skits and editing, just makes it very fun to watch. Really do recommend you watch his explained videos about why certain fights end the way they do. I also recommend his videos about Pokémon types explained. Though they are a little outdated since they only cover Generations 1-7, but still good videos to watch. Actually, I think another good video for you to watch that's not part of Lockstin's list is actually one the Pokémon Company created themselves called "One Thousand Pokémon!" It showcases every single Pokémon from their original games. So you see not just the evolution of Pokemon designs, but the evolution of the handheld platforms they debuted on.

honestly, TerminalMontage's animations are all great, the Megaman and Kirby ones especially

this mans respec and deep knoleg of pokmin lore got me... i like him more then ever.

ma main man noggin, the men is a book for pokemon

You either die a pokemon master or live long enough to see yourself become the grandma who gets all but 10 pokemons names wrong.

Good luck with the future Nuzlocke, those can be brutal

You two look absolutely adorable together ❤️

Usually I don't like people that know nothing about pokemon to react to these battle royal videos, but you're like a cute mom trying to understand and relate to what her son is into

I remember reading somewhere that they got the actual professor oak voice actor for this, but I’m too lazy to look it up

Btw, Lockstin&Gnoggin is a KZfaq channel that actually goes over all of TerminalMontage's Pokemon Battle Royale videos. I recommend watching those too! They're very informative in case you don't know what's going on.

oh man, I’m down for all of these! TerminalMontage is a phenomenal animator & has soo many crazy vids 🙌🔥🍻

a first run, nuzlocke run, and first game as one? girl, you are SELF DESTRUCITVE! nuzlocke are heavy even on veterans!

I hope you can do the Legendary and Baby battle royals. They're even better!

Maybe it's just me but when she said she was going to guess the Pokemon I would have responded with "there are well over 800 Pokemon in circulation. If you've haven't even played the games there's no chance you'd guess them correctly and I'd be naming them all day." Knowing who any of the Pokemon are doesn't really matter.

Kadabra and Alakazam both hold spoons as a reference to the once famed psychic Uri Geller, who made a name for himself pretending to melt and bend spoons with mental powers rather than physical force. He was inevitably exposed as a fraud by the magician James Randi with help from Johnny Carson on the Tonight Show where Uri was featured as a guest. Johnny called Randi asking for any tips on how to treat the upcomming guest knowing of bad blood wherein Randi told the Tonight Show staff to not let Uri or his people handle any of the props provided for the trick, and to not inform Uri what would be brought for him to demonstrate on. Suffice it to say, Uri choked on live television and his career imploded soon after. Unfortunately, he would have a mild resurgence, still doing his charade to this day, though the pieces have changed a bit. When he found out his likeness had been channeled as inspiration for the psychic Pokemon he sued Nintendo citing infringement of his image and trademark. He lost.

“I know nothing about Pokémon” “Nuzlock”😂

Definitely recommend watching these and the explanation video, like, right after. Definitely the best way to enjot them. Also, Loggstin is such a goated poketuber, i love his stuff sm

Terminal Montage is a great animator

The "Pokémon Battle Royale Explained" is a co-series with the animation and it's also a fun watch.

SHE'S HITTIN THE TERMINAL MONTAGE CONTENT, LEZZZ GOOOOOOOO~!

Terminal Montage is a Chad level creative. He got bog with Monster Hunter, but His Kirby Videoes and Christmas videos are his standouts.

You two are like my partner and I, I've been a Pokémon nerd since back in '97, and they're gradually learning more and more through me and really enjoy the newer games, like Scarlet and Arceus. So seeing you asking who each Pokémon is and both of you laughing over the chaos is too relatable and precious ❤

To be fair, the video is better when you dont stop every 3 seconds to figure out which mon is which :P

Adorable. Terminal montage makes great content. I would definitely recommend watching more, he's probably done a series you've played (potentially). Thanks for the video!

10:50 Magcargo has a Pokédex entry saying it's body temperature is 18,000 degrees fahrenheit which is more than the surface of the sun

The fact that I could name every Pokémon in this video without looking it up... I should go outside more Also you should react to more of the Pokémon Battle Royale animations

12:47: yep; Macargo (whose name is a pun on _escargot_ the French word for "Snail" and magma, the hot molten soil that's beneath the Earth's crust, close to the core, but occasionally spurts out of volcanos when tectonic plates shift or there's a large enough seismic disturbance). A running joke in the Pokemon community is that, since it's pokedex entry states that it is about as hot or _hotter_ than the surface of the sun, that letting it out of it's pokeball would be equivalent to launching a nuke: the intense heat from just being around it would be hot enough to melt people alive from the sheer intensity of it, trees would spontaneously combust and burn out of control until they were reduced to charcoal and ash, deserts would become seas of glass, and the whole region that they were let loose in would be on fire...forever. Or maybe just a few millennia... 😅

Oh boy, the Terminal Montage rabbit hole. Welcome, and enjoy your stay!

Oh, shit, Alicia Nuzlocke! Can't wait to see the Rattata Queen in action!

Moar Terminal Montage! Your audience demands it!

Imagine being a rube like me thinking, "oh wow, the pokemon battle royale videos are all pretty short, and this video is relatively long, maybe she's watching a bunch of them." Alicia do a Pokemon smash or pass so you actually learn the names of some that are embarassing not to know.

5:28 Yeah these videos take into in-game stats, dex entries, and what other media there is for Pokémon, and yes do react to the explained videos as Lockstin does point out why each result came out as they did, and some background details that were missed because of how much stimulation there is. 14:43 And yes, these are their respective VAs here 15:41 So yeah, I think it would be spectacular for a double react with your fiancé on the royals and their respective explanations, since he may know names, but maybe not the lore the games and anime give them.

About "Slugma" (Don't know the actual name) exploding the instant he appears, this battle royales are "lore accurate", so they go by pokedex definitions... THAT GUYS POKEDEX ENTRY SAYS IT IS AS HOT AS THE SUN... So that's why it was bassictly a nuke lmao

Oh hell yeah! TerminalMontage, less goo!

omg you two are adorbs, and yes, have fun with your Pokemon adventure XP

Here, is the order of pokemon battle Royals in order... The first is The regular pokemon battle Royale. The second is the legendary and mythical pokemon battle Royale. The third is the baby pokemon battle Royale. The fourth is the Mega Evolution pokemon battle Royale. The fifth is the Gigantamax pokemon battle Royale. (Pronounced J-eye-gant-a-max.) The sixth is the Ultra Beast battle Royale. The seventh is the starter pokemon battle Royale. And the last one is the paradox pokemon battle Royale. Your welcome.

Definitely check out the other Pokemon Battle Royales (Legendary & Mythical, Baby, Mega, Gigantamax, Ultra Beast), as well as the explanation videos.

10:51 Magcargo is said to be have an internal temperature of 18,000 F (10,000 C). Theoretically, it would mean that coming into contact with oxygen would just cause a massive explosion, which is why this happened here

Funny thing about "Slugma" is that if you use the phrase "Slugma Balls" you are technically asking to get punched in the crotch.

The beutyfull thing is that this was made in colab with Lockstin adn EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IS LORE ACURATE Like, the pokedex sometimes just doesn't care about being acurate so but they took it literally to make this. For example Wailord has it's weight wrong, is way to little fot it's size so in theory it should float for beig to light, so they made it happen here. or my favourite, Absol made a scared face at the begining (Before Machamp punched it) because it can sence danger like predictions and stuff

I recommend Sam O’Nella Academy, you will learn and laugh a lot with Sam

It's like watching with your mom fr ❤

Sometimes TerminalMontage has one animation be a small part connected to bigger plot, like the Speedrun Mario saga.

Gotta love any TermonalMontage video

I’m just going to assume that their Vtuber models are accurate to their real-life relative sizes. XD

I wish i could have seen the video live since i was the one that redeemed it. oh well that was still fun.

TerminalMontage is one of the funniest animation channels on youtube.

I can’t wait to see more of your reaction of other pokemon Royal battle. Like legendary battle Royal, baby pokemon battle Royal, mega evolution, giagantomax battle. Please react to them all I wanna see you react to all of them

U2 are so cute! And I’m happy your fiancé knows about Pokémon. As a Pokémon fan your lack of knowledge about Pokémon would have drove me insane.

Ah, baby's first Terminal Montage video. A treasure trove of content.

YES. NO OTHER WORDS, JUST YES, HYPE

TerminalMontage, the guy who animated this, has made many hilarious animations. A series of which are Pokémon battle royales. You HAVE to check out some of the others with your boyfriend! There’s one exclusively with baby Pokémon you might like!

A rare lap elf sighting

YES PLEASE ALSO WATCH THE EXPLAINED VERSIONS

great video alic

You should really watch the Lockstin follow up video it’s really good.

YES I LOVE YOU PS. Do the other battles and the explained videos, they're awesome

I know everyone recommends the explained videos of the series but I also highly recommend the other pokemon battle royale videos as well, especially the Legendary Pokemon one.

TerminalMontage has a lot of really good animations.

13:20: in Alakazam's case, it's IQ (which in the _real_ world would be scientifically impossible, as IQ charts typically peak at the 140-145 IQ range, which already constitutes the less than 1% of Earth's entire 4.2 billion population; anything higher than *that* wouldn't be human, but some kind of physical, omniscient god) is a result of its infinitely expanding brain which, if one takes it to its morbidly logical conclusion, could mean that its head will at some future point 'pop' like an overripe gourd once the brain growth exceeds what its skull can possibly handle. The curse of intelligence is a burden... EDIT: Also, the spoons are a reference to a common 'trick' used by psychics (both legitimate and fraudulent) to demonstrate their psychic prowess. They do this by being able to bend a metal spoon using minimal force... or without even touching the spoon, an example of psychokinesis or psychic telekinesis. The explanation behind the distinction is... kinda boring and long-winded, but short version is, there's telekinesis using purely your mind, or telekinesis as replicated by technology, using the laws of physics to do the seemingly impossible.

Highly recommend checking out the explanation video, it's basically a fun little lesson on Pokedex lore and info on Pokemon

Lets goooo rich is on x death thiss time big hype for the mans

Definitely watch the legendary version of this it’s even better

Well, now you GOTTA see the explanation video. I don’t make the rules.

ooh yall HAVE to watch the rest of these pokemon br videos, TerminalMontage is amazing

The little chibi fiancé 🥺

I totally forgot Lockstin had a little cameo at the end

Just a quick heads up, TerminalMontage has a whole series on these Pokémon Battle Royales, I think there's like 5 or 6 of em.. Then you need to watch literally every other TerminalMontage video because he makes *really* good cintent.

Wooooo

13:21 You know all those Trucks where people bend Spoons using "Telekinesis"? I'm pretty sure that's why he's holding a spoon I don't know anything about pokemon tho Also Mob Psycho did the Spoon thing as well

15:31 NO SHE CUT THE 4TH WALL BREAK JOKE! D:

5:51 Yo gimme a sec, am warmin up my peekza rolls o3o

I would love to see you react to the legendary and Mythical pokemon battle royale THAT ONE IS COOL!!!!

Alright well now we need a chug jug cover

Here's hoping for that nuzlock vod to come to KZfaq

Oh are we gonna see Terminalmontage? I LOVE his video. There is an animator that i like to suggest but because Alicia said that loud Is not funny i don't think if she can like Sr Pelo but his Spooky Month series Is a Amazing

TerminalMontage is the goat Always watch the end of his videos

need to see the mega evolution one

Liking for the Elf Queen getting food 👍

Don’t worry Alicia, there’s too many damn Pokemans. I knew exactly what You were thinking for almost all Your guesses. Like others have said, I’d recommend Y’all watch the explanation video for these fights. It makes more sense that way especially for people less familiar with the Pokédex Lore.

I mean, a nuzlocke might be a tall order. We need to teach you all about pokemon types so you can survive

You should react to the Starter Battle Royale that just came out.😁

Eyyyy we do be lovin the double trouble creature feature today, very based and redpilled, just like being in a relationship :)

First Max0r and now TerminalMontage? It's only a matter of time til you find RussianBadger
