Sorry, I had to reupload the clip because KZfaq didn't process the HD for it for some reason.

A few minutes after this battle, and almost immediately after Vinny said he was done for the day, the game crashed.

Vinny's been intervied by news channels twice about being a streamer. He can claim Elder Statesmenship.

They called it the Iono Zone and not the Ionosphere and that hurts for some reason.

Nice of Iono to shoutout small streamers like vinny

I love the random panther noises in the background

I like how the fan looks like bald joel

Next game will have streamers who are based off of Vinny and Jerma just to get super meta

Vinny shares a profession with Iono, but sounds dead inside like Larry

2:38 "The Iono Hype Squad is here" And it is literally a single dude.

Vinny at the start: "Oh wow that's crazy that being a streamer is such a recognized thing that a Pokémon gym leader is one." Vinny 30 seconds later: "Oh god no what have I unleashed upon this world? What have I created? Not like this. Not like this."

i can sense visible pain in vinnys voice

I hope Vinny collabs with Iono more in the future

Thank you for cutting together the footage of vinny getting swept, nice touch

I love how the line “rack up those subscriptions” ALWAYS does psychic damage to everybody streaming this game. Also I’m grateful Gnorts didn’t have to raid and have his pure mind clustered by the cruel carnal wrath of Iono simps.

Would've been better if the only way to obtain the Gym Badge was by losing just to please Iono's chat by making her look good.

"Who's this region's gym leader?" "Iono." "Seems like nobody else does either. They keep saying that!"

Never make Vinny feel like his occupation is legitimate. He starts to disassociate when you do that

they say she's the electric gym leader but she's dealing a lot of psychic damage

5:05 Holy hell why the fart sfx LOL I nearly died laughing

Vinny after this: "Let's never talk about this again, chat."

now vinny knows how we feel every time he acts "cute" and "speeny"

Vinny having an in-game hype squad was great

I can't wait until Vinny finds the Critikal/Charlie lookalike.

Vinny would've empathized more if she talked about obscure oldies band The Heracross, and obscure undeground AMC crime-dramas

The way that Iono says hello multiple times then follows it up with goodbye feels like a reference to Kaguya Luna. One of the OG top 3 of the tubing world before she got fucked by her agency.

The button slip that killed fourmouses the first time was just incredible.

The irony is they're even more controlling of copyright in japan and give the vtuber companies only one month of permission to stream new pokemon games after release, not even that strict with other nintendo games

Iono is written like how a corpo thinks a streamer talks Which is probably not far from the truth

I hope Vinny can get Iono for the next Amogus VR stream

This is missing the moment when he wished that gym leaders had level scaling. Really makes the incoming sweep that much better.

Fart (with reverb)

"I'm a celery." And "I'm dying on the inside." Is also how I felt after experiencing this ordeal lol poor Binny. I did enjoy how the chat members sent out the Torkoals to cheer Vin on though. 😂 "OUGH!"

8:18 Vinny gets real.

Guys I think Vinny is in love

the immideate fear in his voice "IS SHE A VTUBER?!"

Funny how the speen guy almost lost to a Vtuber

1:49 The Great Equalizer

2:50 3:15 4:41 5:35 The dev’s intentions worked.

2:43 game freak made a soy jack. game freak is aware of what goes on in the internet. everything is fan service

And here I thought the Jerma collab was weird.

8:44 Jesus christ, look at her eyes shes crazy

I have never seen a game try so hard to purposefully mentally damage their players. This might as well made her a psychic type due to all the psychic damage they tried to do.

I give props to Game Freak for taking the piss about streamers. The simp giving the 5000 pokedollar dono was the cherry on top

shoutout to Vinny for suffering for our entertainment for over a decade

The atmospheric fart sound never gets old.

"The nightmare is over." No one tell him.

Vinny finally had a collab with a vtuber that's not Limes (Limes is a now a vtuber right?)

First Gawr Gura watching Vinny and now a Iono collab, notice how they both have shark teeth as well, props to Game Freak for following this VTuber pattern (if you can call it that) into this character.

5:05 What remains of Vinny's soul departs.

Those noises and flashes in the background looked like an old-school DBZ battle where the characters are moving faster than the eye can see

Iono: i can BELIVED i stream with mr.terminal 7 himself what a honor

You can hear his face crack as it caves in on itself during her dialogue.

3:41 Would that be like taking a bath with a toaster?

I think that's what jerma looks like in real life

The Frames in this game.....

Holy shit! I think Vinny might be the first one I've ever heard pronounce her name right. Shame he didn't keep that up, but still he did it!

The superior streamer won.

As far as the coat goes, I know in Japan they have a fashion trend of "oversized fits" , so I'll usually see people with tops that have a specific silhouette as far as current fashion trends go

Y'know at least the aspect of streamer antagonist was fully fleshed out instead of hamfisted in to unholy oblivion

I was really hoping she was a hologram of sorts and the real Iono is a middle aged man. [Edit] Didn't think this would strike a nerve.

Iono was easily my favorite gym leader. This is in no small part due to a theiry i read that she shares some traits with [final boss spoilers redacted] which could mean she's a rotom in disguise (also her pupils split like a rotom, she has the rotom mouth, rotom is found in the area near her gym and is even spottable in her gym test in the trees, yet she has none on her team but her ace mon is a ghost type that becomes electric, the leadup to her announcement stream featured a rotom loading screen but theres none on her team (i felt this was rone similarly to the gimmeghoul treasure teaser page), and she has hexagons on her legs)

why is she wearing a straight-jacket

Okay video! Thanks for uploading!

I just finished the gym in Japanese yesterday and I was curious how it goes in English. I can't stop laughing.

Even better is that on The Full Sauce, the stream is labeled as "Vinny & Iono Collab"

This is not the future I expected watching Justin TV back in the day

This is what Nintendo really thinks of how streamers are - just money hungry fiends on the internet

I feel like gamefreak gets all their knowledge of how people under the age of 30 act from one book published in 2008

3:59 I don't know why I think this, but her expression reminds me of the card dude from the town with no name.

this feels like a fever dream

"How do you do, fellow streamers?"

🗿

Iono my beloved. Also, this was great, it cuts off perfectly.

I haven’t bought a Pokémon game since heartgold came out. The existence of a vtuber gym leader is making me feel even more like I made the right decision.

OH MY GOD HE CALLED IT _TWERKHOLE_

1:45 2:18 5:05

1:01 Vinny watches Star Trek: Enterprise confirmed?

i swear if vinny starts singing the song to enterpise one more time, im gonna explode lol

It's basically tradition for chat to immediately turn on the streamer and defect to Iono.

I never wanted to off myself more than when I saw this gym.

I need to go check something real quick, be right back...

5:12 All she needs to say now is “believers in chat, LET’S HEAR IT!” And this would be perfect.

How many livestreamers have appeared in Nintendo games now? There is Iono, CJ from New Horizons, I'm sure there is one in the Splatoon universe, there has to be. Does Rabbid Peach count? Or is she more an Instagram girl? The new main character in Fire Emblem Engage sure does LOOK like one, but I don't think they invented the Internet in that universe. Yet. Countless Blades in Xenoblade 2 could be used as Vtuber avatars, for sure, but I also don't think the Internet exists there. They would call it the "Ethernet" I suppose.

"The Forbidden Word that rhymes with 'imp'!" Wimp? Limp? Pimp? Blimp? Gimp?

Jinco Jeans coat.

Vinny was almost bested by the electric gremlin.

vinny is my favorite Vtuber

my lord they were sending out sussy amoongusses at one point

this is definitely how i felt during this entire sequence, reliving it gave me the same feeling of dread and general sickness

Nintendo rips on streamers and then destroys the smash community in a matter of weeks.

If you were wondering what the squeaking noises were during the battle, they were Amoonguss. Yup. Amogus Sus.

Binny should definitely collab more with whodunnitwasitwhoehat - Iono.

They could've made this so much better by having Iono spin a punishment wheel after losing.

I spontaneously crumpled into a paper ball due to the cringe, ty pokemon.

Should've asked tIono to do the raid song.

Anyone knows Vinny is a news channel streamer.

I can't believe vinny almost got swept by another streamer, smh.

I'm a dummy. Someone explain the 'chat member hype squad sending out Torkoals' joke to me?

When Vinny spit out that truth about Nintendo vs actual Let's Players I wasn't ready.
