I immediately stopped caring about the Pokemon League and Nemona. My #1 priority? Get those McGuffins and save that guys' freaking dog! LOL

You can really tell that Arven looks like both of his parents. He's got Sada's eyes, Turo's jawline, and a combination of their hair colours. It's a really good detail that makes it clear that he was designed with both games in mind, or that both professors were designed with him in mind.

After that one scene, Arven went from being an obnoxious jerk, to my top priority.

**Me seeing Arven at the beginning of the game:** Man you're a jerk how dare you be mean to our vroom vroom steel scale puppy **Me seeing Arven at the end of the game:** I WOULD AND WILL DIE FOR YOU AND MABOSSTIFF ARVEN I AM SO SORRY OH MY GOD

Dude the moment we found out about Mabosstiff, I just wanted to save him first. Especially since I just rescued 2 kittens the year prior, I’d just wanted to help him the most. And then to find out the ending gutted me. I’m like Arven needs a therapist.

It broke my heart in Violet to figure out that Sada peaced out cause Turo lost it, left him with Arven and Turo literally died and we spend the whole time trying to save his dying dog just to find out he already had a dead single dad

You can fit so many mommy and daddy issues into this boy

I appreciate them actually killing their professor. I also like how the game make you care about Arven, Penny and Nemona to the point it felt believable that they all became friends at the end.

I actually feel sorry for the young lad abandoned by his Cowley dishonourable father in his own mother leaving him to focus on her research only to suffer a fatal accident down the line the lab would probably need a lot of therapy and can Pokemon actually address more serious issues like this..

And I got Pokémon daddy issues instead of Pokémon mommy issues

Standard _Pokémon_ procedure is for Protag-kun or Protag-chan to have a missing dad (unless you’re May/Brendan). But Arven is like “hold my tear stein” and has missing _both,_ plus a monster tried to kill his doggo friend. The same monster that killed Mom/Dad (which has to have him like, “yo, WTF?”, when you catch it and add it to the team.)

Huh, Ive played the game so much that I forgot about the objective of finding my own treasure. I know the game's ending implies that the real treasure are the friends you made along the way. But for me, in a gameplay's perspective, my treasure was completing the entire shiny living dex in Pokemon violet. (Not counting all alternate forms but regional forms counts. Also not counting shiny locks.)

Arven's story was the most compelling to me in the vanilla-game. Even before learning of his dog's sickness, I was curious about his personality and overall the way he was acting. When learning of his mabostiff's condition, it really hit me and felt the sense of wanting to quickly help him. But it wasn't until the end of the story- that it really hits me harder than ever the position that this kid was in. Prof. Sada/Turo's obsession with reaching what is considered an "astronomical" goal and neglecting in the first place what they always wanted which was a family... It's very admirable Arven's resolve, specially for his age. He is my second favorite story in the entirety of SV's titles! Always enjoy seeing him push forward for his goals and dreams. Also been enjoying these analysis of the characters- brings forwards the human aspects of them. While PKMN writing is usually simpler, you can find the possible complexity.

Arven is also doing the league challenge

I love how almost everyone went "OK this guy sucks I hate him 😒" to "I LOVE HIM SM PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS!"

I must say if you hate Arven somehow and you’ve beat the game we can’t be friends

Every game has its own unique tragic story for sure. This is no different

Me and my son cried watching this guy's story chills goosebumps please game Freak don't dump this character I want to see him become something great ( the Professor of gen 10 ) ~ I hope this comment ages well

I knew Arven would be my favorite from all games when i had barely defeated the second titan and i was already SOBBING so early into the adventure. Hes just such a well written, well-rounded, nicely designed and compelling character that is impossible not to love him.

Arven is such a sweetheart, and he's such a good friend ❤. And it actually becomes revealed in hidden Treasure DLC that it was US THE PLAYER that caused it all with Sada/Turo receiving a "White book", aka Briar's book from us, and thus sparked their obsession. So in short, everything happened to Arven bc of the MC and THAT'S a heartbreaking revelation 😢.

Me getting a shiny Mabosstiff that had a mark and naming it after Arven. "Arven the Joyful" cuz this man deserves happiness 😭

I like it how you have been doing the crew I really hope you can do Kieran and carmine next

Scarlet had one of the best final battles out of every game i played in terms of mainline pokemon games (X, US, SW, and Gen 9 Scarlet), except for Ultra Necrozma, that crap was so hard

Yeah when I first started playing Violet, I made jokes about Turo being a robot to my boyfriend. Kinda like in a "Could Mr. Krabs be.... A rObOt?" Sort of way. Little did I know that my joke was actually true. Like I was busting my gut when I was watching my partner play Scarlet and they revealed that she was, in fact, a robot. 😂

I would love to see you cover the dlc story of scarlet and violet!! It made me so upset :(

U should do a video on Pokemon’s environmentalist backstory ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠every generation has environmentalism its been a core of the franchise since Gen 1 Pokémon has always been an allegory about the preservation of nature and coexisting with nature So it’s not a “trope” it’s activist message from someone who cares about the environment teaching the rest of us to do the same Gen 8 literally had a message about global warming with galarian corsola It’s not just a “trope” it’s at the core of the franchise has been since Gen 1 and it will never be played out because it’s very real and keeps happening and will always happen so new people will always need that message The franchise is based on the creator’s childhood hobby of bug collecting and then losing that hobby due to industrialization Such a deep message like that is one of the things that makes pokemon so unique And many more examples in every game in each generation Environmentalism will always be a part of Pokémon’s heart and soul because of the creator’s passion for nature and that’s not something that should ever be taken for granted by you or by anyone and clearly it’s a message that everyone needs to learn always that not everyone has learned since nature keeps being abused There are a lot of people who got into careers about animals and nature like zoology and marine biology because of Pokémon And we need that environmentalism in Pokémon to keep inspiring more people so that nature stops being abused Because pokemon has always been about humans coexisting alongside nature

Spoilers for The Peach Epilogue Fun Fact: The little energy he puts into his Peca Dance when he’s possessed is a subtle reference to the amount of energy his parents spent on him.

I lost my dog last year, the wound was fresh for that scene.

poor arven, losing both his biological professor parents and having both of his robot parents leave him... it's like he lost 4 parents 🤯 plot twist: the ai professors build an ai arven

The VERY MOMENT I found about Mabostiff, I stopped everything TO IMMEDIATELY SAVE THE GOODBOI. I play Pokémon since 1999, I was 10 at that time, so I did not really appreciate it with the innocent sides of a 7/8 y.o., event though it instantly became, up until now, my favorite videogame ever. And for the first time with Mabostiff, I UGLY CRIED while playing Pokémon. Never happened before. It almost made me forget about the billion problems in the game. Almost.

6:21 and it’s our fault

DLC: All of this pain is your f¢king fault, the Herba hunting is your atonement of that sin.

The entire story of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet including the DLC are not that bad. However the Pecharunt Prologue could have been better if they expanded few things, and not lock this event behind a distribution item.

and then we find out that we are the cause of all that shitty things that happens to Arven, by giving the book to the professor

Can you do a video about Penny's story?

Ps sada is actually alive she somewhere in the dlc

People who didn’t like SV/the story are heartless lol

Hot take Visuals,frame rate,art style are irrelevant People are too focused on superficial nonsense If The lore was good The writing was good The music was good The vibes were good The messages were good The character designs were good That’s all you really need

Pokemon scarlet went too far, but violet didnt.

Nah, didn't go too far at all. It's a kid's game, and even with Arvin's story, it's more tame than so many kids movies. *coughBAMBIcough*.

People always made fun of me before i could finish explaining why pokemon scarlet was one of the first pokemon games to make me cry. At the age of 13 in 2021. Watching arven not have his mother in his life, find his mother, find out shes fake and that his mom is actually dead, have that fake mom use his mothers voice to tell him he loves her then straight up vanish... yea it made me cry. I was able to somewhat relate

“Invalid because game runs bad” - a lot of Pokémon fans + palworld enjoyers

Do you hate Arven? Don’t worry, you can’t hate Arven more than the game itself does :) Wanna know a little detail that makes it worse? Arven’s love for sandwiches is related to this too. In the lab at the lighthouse, there’s a kid’s book about making sandwiches. Something that 1. Arven probably read over and over since he was lonely and 2. Probably used as a guide on how to make food for himself since his parents weren’t around to make meals for him.

Arven has become my favorite character in Pokemon I’m still a little bitter that he had no part in the DLC until the epilogue. I just replayed Scarlet and Violet and for some reason i feel his story is even more tragic in Scarlet

If we’re talking about having the darkest past N is above Arven he was abused by his father as a child and been betrayed by his father and he almost lost a eye by his father in the manga and the manga is a whole other level to Arven

Now give us Pokémon violet went too far!

1. He is handsome 2. He can cook 3. He cares about dogs 4. He have jealous when you talk to another person... HE IS MY BOYFRIEND AND I WILL PROTECT MY SWEET ARVEN FROM THIS CRUEL WORLD!

A "little" Sad No it was really sad

Despite the bugs that the games had I say that it's the best ones since gold ,silver and XY.

I'm surprised he didn't try to dive into the past. I have this game but I don't think I even went to any gyms, my Pokemon aren't on high levels, I got distracted by animal crossing and other things that came out... Did he hop into a time machine where his mom was still alive and give her proof of her failures? If he does and see he can't stop her then he should let go.

i believe both sada and turo are his parents

Satoshi already completed his Paldea assignment since his treasure would be Pikachu. School settings restrict the adventuring and custom freedom too much that the schools in Houen, Shin'ou, and Kalos are much better like they are training modes that you do battle some trainers for the basics.

❤️

Nice video charles

Look, I'm having a debate in a comment. So if you can make a video on the whole ash or battle ash and Serena thing or ash and misty thing, go ahead please. But also side note serena's best girl

Pokémon Violet doesent exist ❤❤❤

Pokémon is better with the story about being a champion. The SV base story would have felt too much like a movie. Video games are about interacting with the world and characters.

You can say what you want about the graffics or hiw rhe game runs, but sv have rhe best story in pokemon imo

Everything that happened to Arven was the Player's fault

Scarlett time-line is Fine🕹🎮🗺🧭🌎🏔😅👍

As long as the Pokemon anime is running I will never give up hope on Ash and Serena becoming a couple

Is not the tragic of a story and it when that far enough, remember harry potter, arven is harry potter first thing arven and harry lost there parent, the one killed harry parent is a evil creature that is called voldomort yeah voldomort is not a human anymore, for arven is evil creature called miraidon and koraidon, arven has friends a smart one is penny, hyper one is nemona she always hyper if battle is involved and also a normal one which is the player character, harry has a harmone is the smart one, ron is the hyper one, and also nevel who is the normal one, both have a headmaster that is concern about them and both headmaster went on a mission to stop what is happing, arven headmaster went on mission about team star, harry headmaster went on a mission to find the hocrax, even the teacher we have same, its copy and paste they just make it pokemon style harry potter, even the underdepths is same as the chamber of secrets the only different is there is no chase scene and kieren can't control terapagos full power, in the chamber of secret we have one teacher 2 students and one villian, the underdepths we have one teacher 2students and one villain same just added pokemon change on it, so this is just copy paste of harry potter my dude this is not tradgic at all

SV are my fav games. I don't care if it looks bad!

Arven’s parents… are horrible… no he loves his dog a lot…

I also thought it was pretty assholish of him to be insulting Miriadon for no real reason till I learned what he went through with his dad, sad and disappointing.

i ❤ arven club ⬇️

I hope in the next games we can get this kinda darker story. I feel like Scarlet and Violet (Despite the flaws) had a genuine great story and did great writing characters, Arvin being the biggest example. I do hope that the next gen games also have a few darker stories to tell.

I hated this storyline because my actual dog at the time had died. I genuinely wish they'd have an alternative ending or something because that bush-around beating was terrible
