SO HYPE!!!

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Someone at Gamefreak took this comment as a challenge lol

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon It's kind of ironic that Stantler got an evolution like 2 months after this video came out and you specifically thought it would never get one. Maybe Ken Sugimori saw this video and decided to give Stantler an evolution because you gave him the idea. 🤔 I mean it's definitely just a coincidence but it's a pretty funny one. 😂

@@umbranex9274 Gamefreak: "And I took that personally"

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I'm using Wyrdeer on my team, it's actually really good

I recently used it to defeat blane, I think its a water type.

Everyone knows venomoth is actually the only 5-type pokemon in the game, being Flying/Grass/Bug/Poison/Psychic. Calculating super-effective moves is a bitch

So he’s 4x weak to Fire, Rock, Flying and Ice, 2x weak to Dark and Ghost, neutral against Normal, Bug, Poison, Electric, Steel, Dragon, and Psychic, 2x resistant to Water and Fairy, 16x resistant to Grass and Fighting, and immune to Ground

16x resistant to grass. Incredible!

Venomoth is Bug/Poison lol

Game Freak: lOoK aT iTs TaIl. wHy Is It RoUnD? wE'lL nEvEr TeLl! An opposing Pokemon looks at it and Foe Stantler's Intimidate cuts [Pokemon]'s attack!

I like to think the illusions it's making for the opposing Pokémon is what causes Intimidate, for us, it looks like a dear with a weird tail, for the enemy, it's probably a giant monster.

@@bigpoggers6507 or then like "What the fuck is that tail?! Is it even one?!! Why are its horns like that?!!!"

Frankly I've always assumed that Stantler like puts eye spots on the balls in its antlers, throws up a bit of freaky aura and then has the "eyes" stare at its opponent.

If you watch casual geographic you know any animal with those moose like traits is a 1 time trip to the morgue so I guess it can have intimidate.

I’m going to do some very flawed math for this, be prepared

Okay, extremely flawed math time, and when I say flawed, I mean it. I googled it and corgis can come pretty close, being close to 3 k/h slower than Usain bolt. A German Shepherd nearly matches him at 28 k/h. Also, just for fun, I used a very flawed method to test Yamper’s speed to see how it’d compare, using our metaphorical Usain Bolt, Dragonite, as a baseline. If we take its dex entry literally and assume the pokemon world has the circumference of earth, which is approximately 40075 km, and we divide the 40075 by 16, we get an average speed of 2504.7 km. However, If we compare that to Mach 2, which is Pidgeot’s top speed, at 2469 km/h, we see that it can fly at over Mach 2, despite somehow having a lower speed than Pidgeot. However, the Pokédex states that Dragonite “Is capable of” whereas pidgeot is simply stated to “fly at” those speeds, so it’s possible that Pidgeot can do that without any training, whereas Dragonite might require it to be at level 100 and/or have a good spread of EVs/IVs. This means that Pidgeot would be a better comparison, so lets switch out our Dragonite for Pidgeot. If we use its gen VI speed stat of 101, and divide the 2469 by 101, we get… 24, which would give Yamper a top speed of… 624… yeah, I doubt a corgi is travelling at more than 1.5 times the speed of the magnet train… it would mean Regieleki travels at a top speed of over Mach 4, which is believable.

@@solgaleo3533 Regieleki probably converts itself into pure electricity and runs long power lines or something

@@prof.reuniclus21 yeah. That’s my explanation as to why it’s so slow in the Overworld and yet has such a high speed stat. It would normally convert itself to electricity and travel at insane speeds, but the player wouldn’t be able to keep up, so it instead has to walk with its tiny little legs, which it isn’t used to walking on.

Dude, that corgi hypothetical is too funny, I can't breathe!

Made an episode of Pokémon Journeys feel like a fever dream bro

What's weird about that?

Best comment.

Someone beat me to it lmao

Let's not forget "not very intimidating" and it gets intimidate!

I know right it will make Whinty more So Tough,But I bet Gamefreak realizes that it’ll will make Whinty Pokémon almost unstoppable to win in Whinty level cap.

they should allow you to re-face gym leaders, I honestly think Whitney would've had a stantler in the rematch.

@@Alucard120392 I think the crystal clear fan game allows you to do this.

Two Pokémon great in their own right.

More like Missnosis

Honestly tho

It makes sense Stantler is the only one of it's style. But Xerneas would be going too far for an evo.

I'm gonna hear Bully Maguire every time someone uses sand attack or mud slap now 😂

Comment of the day

honestly I'd so laugh if this was a super meta joke and he acts like the dude who has no GF but needs to pretend he got one for his ego for shits and giggles.

@@Metalhammer1993 I mean.. that’s the joke he’s making lol. He’s aware of how mentioning his girlfriend comes off so that’s why he keeps doing it

she must go to a different school, i’ve never seen her

@MIles Rodger Indeed. :P

@@thiefrules she's a Nigerian prince, duh

It did and I'm so happy I was so wrong!

In BW2?

@@davidlarkin1040 Pretty sure it was White 1. I got stuck at those twins before the forest who have two Sewaddle... with Bug Bite. Against my 1 Servine, since my second grass type is RIGHT PAST THEM IN THE FOREST

@@SaerasChuu If they're twins then they shouldn't initiate a double battle on you if you only have one Pokémon. So you could probably deposit other Pokémon and just skip the fight completely unless it's a mandatory fight.

@@FinbyOasta Been a while so I can't remember what I did, but pretty sure the fight was mandatory. One of those random trainers you didn't expect to be a roadblock. This was back when the games first came out.

most pokemon in gen 2 have cool back sprite, especially if you come from gen 1 when most pokemon are just a bunch of pixels that made no sense a lot of times lmao

Deer with frisbee up its ass is poo poo

Honestly i maybe like deers but Standler is one of the few pokemon i personally dont realy like (neither do i hate it) I think Deerling and Sawbuck personally are superior in design

i have been using it since gen 4 or whatever, i had one in a johto playthrough

I used to think they were super cool but they're so irritating to have to deal with on a regular basis. They eat my garden and try to fuck my car up when I'm taking the kids to school.

Stantler is just a deer with a frisbee in its ass😮‍💨😮‍💨

These games just keep giving. So glad we're all still finding new things after so much time!

I also had problems with Skarmory (Bloody 25 Catch Rate).

Wow I was gonna comment something similar. Glad someone did the work for me. I didn't think about the race idea, so that one is a great suggestion!

Agreed, a race or compilation video would be perfect for those.

Glad it's helpful :) current move set will be there in future videos too.

This may become a running gag... Apparently many people also enjoyed this.

I rate your jokes man! Same humour as myself, you’ve quickly become my fave poketuber over the last few months, keep up the good work!

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Erika's gym is a huuuuuge PP sucker. You won't have anything left by the end. (Yes, you can absolutely steal that)

This comment makes me feel emptiness and joy at the same time.

@@alfredmedina9271 😂 That sums it up. RIP, Buck the Stantler, and his dozens of children.

@@TheCompleteDM You should burn the game card, with witnesses, a priest and a speech ready to go. Give them the proper send-off to game heaven or sth.

I’m so happy I was wrong!

Yeah Rhydon's speed and special are the worst I think you cant even survive Red's Espeon

@@a.r.4822 You are absolutely right I wanted to play with Rhydon after 20 years.... Never again

But the coverage?

From thic booty to psychic rack! Strangler has evolved.

Come and join us in the Patreon! You'll get to be in the credits then too!!

No need to feel bad, the tails grow back buddy.

This comment really got me laughing

Happy Birthday Christie!

Deer should be it’s evolution but with a few floating orbs

Thanks so much Mr Hotdogs! I'm working hard to keep things improving.

And nutritious

You monster!

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Slowpoke is the monster. A Pocket Monster 😋

On the one hand, canonically Slowpoke doenst notice when the tail is removed and it grows back without much fuss. It often falls off in fact, and in Alola it is used in stews. It is common in Alola to find them strewn everywhere, and Slowpoke do use their tails as both rods and bait for fishing. This raises the question of if removing the tail yourself is even necessary, as you can wait for it to fall off with it being so common. However, there are obvious moral gripes people can have. Its kind of weird, that Slowpoke loses its tail like a lizard might to distract a predator, but Slowpoke is so mentally slow I doubt thats what it uses it for, regardless of if thats what it evolved to do. Regardless, they are asking a small fortune for the tail in Gold and Silver, and if its as commonly found lying on the ground as we are led to believe, they are exploiting customers without really needing to necessarily do anything to the Slowpoke. Morally its a bit weird, but no harm is actually done to the Slowpoke to collect this so I suppose Slowpoke itself could provide meat to the general public when they arent having berries, fruit, veggies, rice, breads and stuff which are all canonical now. Matter of fact, as its considered quite good to taste and could be harvested without harming the creature on large scale and they are largely lazy, forgetful Pokemon and the tails dont take long to grow back using Slowpoke would be preferable to what we have as no animals would be hurt for quite a large amount of meat. Its 3 feet tall, and regardless of how thats measured its tail is quite large compared to its body. Considering all factors, the biggest issue Team Rocket runs into selling you the tail is they are exploiting you, due to how common them losing their tails is. Taking the tail from them is by far the most ethical way to get meat short of synthesizing it in the Pokemon world, as it causes no harm and grows back quickly.

@@silvershadow5652 pokemon breed like rabbits and they hatch fully grown for the stage they hatch in. There's no shortage of meat. Miltanks and Ditto-mothered-Tauros alone provide so much food. Pidgeys are _everywhere_ in virtually unlimited number, and they're a foot tall. That's larger than some chicken breeds.

That's hilarious.

I'm happy to be wrong!

I do

I hope you're safe too during the pandemic. It's my pleasure to make the content! It's keeping me entertained (and slightly distracted from work) as well!

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon ive always wanted to know why CANT butterfree learn dream eater it learns most psychic moves n has a sleep move

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon out of the many pryce appearances he is only good in radical red where he is the third hardest leader in the gen 8 kanto game behind the first leader Falkner and the NOTORIOUS buffed Erika (better sprite 😉, ridiculous strong field effect of double grass type speed, and serperior existing with 0 ice types available to effectively counter it, the serperior has contrary n perfect ivs, Erika would still be the hardest without serperior

Slugma and Magcargo I hadn't considered yet! Those will be exciting to do.

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon poor Slugma, even YOU forgot about him! It’s unforgivable 😂 Johto is also full of what I call brave pokemon, brave because you need to be brave to use them Lol they are iconic and weird such as Shuckle Wobbuffet Delibird Smeargle ecc (game freak at that time was much more creative I think because they are all so unique) and I think it would be fun to do some runs with these pokemon in the future

I won't forget him again!

Thanks Devin it means a lot to me!

That is something I have no considered. Very interesting idea.

This is a really great and unique idea and I'd love to see some runs of it! You would need some way to consistently compare between the two though... Some of the games are way longer than others

@@tenfoldgambit9372 yeah I thought about that but... I'd think a better way of comparing the pokemon is not only with time, but time, how much lvl the pokemon was when it beat the elite 4, type coverage etc...

Recently remember! So hype!

You're welcome. I think it important to help tell the story of the run.

I agree!

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks to the algorithm for bringing us together

Party consists of 5 stantler and 1 delibird

I did my part!

This is awesome information. Thanks so much for letting me know this. I'll do some further research and mention it in a future video.

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon no problem! i looked into it a bit and it looks like its even better than what i posted. its a 12.5% gym boost and the first gym badge gives you a 12.5% boost to attack so after beating Whitney you get all 3 for return. 102 base power + 50% Stab + 12.5% badge boost + 12.5% gym boost = 193 base power. Gen 2 is broken for normal type

Yeah, normal types are so great here. As a kid I think I missed out on Return because it didn't have a cool name like "Flamethrower" or "Thunderbolt" haha

Going to talk more indepth about it very soon actually. It's been a really fun process so far. I'm excited to develop even more knowledge soon.

Thanks so much! I'm glad the effort is paying off.

Going to be doing that more in the future. However, double team is getting an unofficial ban.
