What if NEW JERSEY had Starter Pokémon?

lets call Gmax Empoleons cough 'sail' a codpiece and not think about it too much. :p

One day ago?

One day ago 💀

@@Greed... There is this little thing called Membership, and if you get it, you get access to videos early ;)

Lol imagine it was a huge avalugg that crashed into the Pokémon Titanic

I mean, Hisuian Avalugg can supposedly get pretty big, so maybe the same applies to the original.

@@demi-femme4821 Would make sense

I suppose you haven't seen the Lord variant of Avalugg then, huh?

@@saltygibus5746 I have, while that’s big, Im picturing the Torterra type of big in the Detective Pikachu movie.

Given Ash-Greninja's popularity, removing it in favor of a Mega would irk a lot of fans. For Gen 6 (since there aren't exclusive implementations of the gimmick for certain Pokemon, for e.g. certain Pokemon getting exclusive Z-moves or GMAX forms), I'd honestly give all 3 of them of Battle Bond. Have the Gen 6 legends game focus on the story of Zygarde, AZ AND Bond phenomenon, and you'll have an excuse for Battle Bond not only existing but also having the mon with Battle Bond reflect your character (like it should, according to the anime, at least, since Battle Bond is pretty much only explained in the anime). Not to the point where it's just your character as a Pokemon, just the Pokemon feeling more connected to your character.

@Roger Loe Why does Greninja HAVE to be special? Greninja gets Battle Bond, but the other 2 get Megas, that just seems like Charizard all over again. (Granted, for Battle Bond to work for all 3, it would need to be properly explained)

@Roger Loe Yeah, so giving both of them 1 OP ability sounds like a better option, doesn't it? Plus, both of them can also hold an item unlike a Mega, and Gen 6 starters get that exclusive implementation of the gimmick like Gen 7 had with exclusive Z-moves and Gen 8 with GMAX. Give them all Battle Bond. Hell, give em a Mega too, why not?! Sounds stupid, but you have to consider that these are the starters of the least popular region (not generation, that's debatable. Don't know which side I'm on since I haven't played ORAS). But it might be too much. In that case, just Battle Bond if possible. I mean, Mega Rayquaza is the only Mega that doesn't require a Mega stone. Wouldn't it be logical to at least give that privilege to the Gen 6 starters, the starters of the gen where Mega was first introduced? IMO, yes and since Serena and Alain own a Delphox and Chesnaught in the anime, that might be more likely than you think, especially since Alain already has a Mega. Again, I hate to sound like a broken record, but they should properly explain Battle Bond in either the remakes' post game or the Gen 6 legends game (in addition to Zygarde, AZ, and the rest of Kalos' history ofc, since Kalos does have a rich history, at least according to the anime), and have the Pokemon (somewhat) resemble their trainers (so the player character) after transforming. This is what should be done ideally for the Gen 6 starters, making them a more solid trio (Greninja only having the additional honor of being in Smash and Unite, Delphox and it's pre-evo being in Unite and Pokken. Yeah probably should do something for Chesnaught, maybe an ancient Kalosian form or something, and add him to Unite). But naturally, this is way too much work for GF, despite earning millions off of, Idk, the biggest franchise in the world (at least one of the biggest?). And, yeah, at that point, at least give 'em the Mega. But, IMO, they should try their best for one of the most controversial and imbalanced trios in Pokemon. I mean, it's just 3 Pokemon. And it's not like you haven't done Pokemon with a gajillion variations before (Vivillion, Alcremie and Floette). Given the way Smash looks and feels on the Switch, I doubt there'd be too many hardware limitations for that. Again, my opinion so feel free to disagree.

@Roger Loe Yeah, I get where you're coming from. But man, do I want this trio to be solid as a whole!

Originally megas were branded as a way to give some powercreeped Pokémon new power. since there was no way judge Kalos Pokémon as powercreeped when they were brand new and they all unfortunately missed their Chances at megas.

I feel like GMax-Torterra could have a sort of Spinda gimmick, where no two Torterra-Worlds are alike! Maybe there could even be one where it’s just land, or just water.

The thing is, it’s based off of ying ninjas, who dress on white. It’s also a duplication jutsu, so it makes sense to be the same.

@@doorknob9714 Still the eyes and the water feel like they need improvements IMO to give off more of that kaiju vibe.

i mean, water doesn't even have color

@@mrpanda9164 It's still less impressive IMO, but okay I suppose.

Bro this is not water, it's literally an alter ego made of mental energy, like the one goku used against moro with the mental power of mui, and it suits very well on greninja...wtf you're talking about?!?!

@whatever oliver ya

@whatever oliver cool

Me me

@@ash-vivaan6735 I translated that to English and ya turns into of

Yes

I feel like Infernape and Empoleon should have Fighting and Steel type moves respectively

@@pn2294 I would have done that, but the designs didn't really show their secondary types as much, so I figured primary type moves would fit better

Isn't it written maelström or something like that ?

@@baofleurence7650 it might be, I didn't check beforehand

Volcano rocks

@@hello_hello_hello948 Obsidian😮

Same for me, I even feel like doing a G-Max Delphox one day.

Yea! I remembered that while editing this and should have put a note 😂

So be fair it’s easier to explain how mega evolution could show up in other places as opposed to Dynamax

I remember having the impression that it had to do with harnessing the souls that died in the ancient war and thus could only happen in regions with similar violence in their histories but even at the time I wasn't sure where I had gotten that from.

How about the giant Dragonite from the Bill episode?

@@BJGvideos I haven't really watched much of the pokemon show so I didn't know that happend

I think torterra needed a smaller head and legs to make it look bigger

@@themostbritishpersonalive868 not sure if that might have been a good idea, I feel that would have been a Mega-Slowbro-like situation and well, that mega didn't look very well despite having a concept behind

poor infernape! lets hope he gets into scarlet and violet since he was a fan favourite

And in Scarlet and Violet as well as future games.
