Can Ash Ketchum Beat Pokemon Scarlet?

switching over to Donphan when Jolteon came out was a chess move 🔥

10:25 Honestly given Ash’s history with Primeape catching the overleveled one that won’t listen to you until you prove yourself would of made a LOT of sense for this one

32:43 Gengar: WAH!

21:56 "that isn't rice balls those are jelly filled donuts!!!!!"

Donphan was my unexpected ace for most of my Violet playthrough. It survived hits it shouldn't have and defeated pokemon that it had no right stepping on.

The squads of Team Star are named after the five brightest stars of the constellation Cassiopeia. Segin/Epsilon Cassiopeiae, Ruchbah/Delta Cassiopeia, Navi/Gamma Cassiopeiae, Schedar/Alpha Cassiopeiae, and Caph/Beta Cassiopeiae. Another detail I love that they did is each squad boss uses a Pokéball that matches their personality. Giacomo uses Timer Balls as he's a DJ and timing is key, Mela uses Quick Balls because of her impatience and attitude, Atticus uses Repeat Balls because he's stuck in the medieval past, Ortega uses Luxury Balls because he's from a rich background, and Eri uses Heal Balls because she cares a lot about protection.

Ash's to ashes made me crack up

all i can say is it's good that none of these ash challenges were nuzlockes

"Wow, I never knew Ash was so terrified of rice balls" Because he prefers the world-famous donuts that Brock makes, jelly-filled are his favorite. Clavell pretending to be a student by changing his hairdo like, "How do ya do fellow kids?" Though to be fair to him, the Academy accepts people of all ages, you see people of different ages across Paldea wearing the uniform. So it is a good disguise at first thought...even if it's obviously Clavell. So you kept losing when you set out because you were making things harder for yourself? That is indeed an authentic Ash Ketchum experience

"Have a seat" Ash: "Really? I can have it?" I literally died 🤣

“We’re all just trash waiting to be thrown away” is line so saturated in pain; never fails to get a tear.

This was so entertaining to watch, I genuinely didn’t think pichu could make it that far

I am so happy that you used noibat. It has been one of my favourite pokemon since I watched the gen 6 anime, and I have used it in every single playthrough I've done of gen 6, 8, and 9.

To be fair though, Ash usually ends up with the Grass Starter. Bulbasaur, Bayleef, Sceptile, Grotle, Snivy, Rowlett. I want to see him get a Sprigatito that just keeps biting his ankles like a real cat.

Playing the Cynthia theme before the champion was perfect

Sirfecht'd is my favourite Pokémon from Ash! It is amazing ❤

Woah. I just realized Nemona's team is almost like Ash's when you battled her after Larry. A Lycanroc, a Pikachu clone, Goomy and 1 regional starter.

Not sure if anyone has brought this up yet but the Tera Rockruff on that winding path south of Medali is guaranteed to have Own Tempo. And it does respawn if you accidentally KO it or want to catch more than one. Hope this helps anyone else who wanted a Dusk form Lycanroc.

how i use hawlucha: 1. one million bulk ups 2. spam attacks until hawlucha falls 3. just kill em while that happens

16:42 Him: this is my homie Also him: proceeds to not put in party
