Okay, but imagine going through Victory Road in ORAS, but not finding Wally. You reach Steven, who tells you he's already been defeated. He steps aside, and Wally is standing there waiting for you.
Wouldn't be the first time you walk in on the champion having just been beaten by a green-haired dude
That is why I was so happy to find Wally a second time in the Battle Masion. He shocked me and OHMYGOSH I WAS NOT PREPARED!
I struggled hard as eff but did barely pull it off.
And he has a mega gardevoir (not gallade, I prefer the gardevoir more)
@@blackfoxstudios4101 personally I prefer the Gallade for him, but I will say that I feel the Gardevior is, arguably, the better of the two, both for in game playthroughs and competitive

Leonâs âundefeated championâ status is extra funny because he was one of three in that region alone
Mustard did actually lose several times after his first partner Pokémon died.

Wally is such a great character
I think people are missing this reference: "Additionally, after completing the Delta Episode, Steven mentions to Wallace that he will relinquish his position as Champion at some time to travel the world, and asks Wallace if he will become Champion in his place, referencing their roles in Emerald."
Know whatâd be neat? A Champion thatâs part of (or the leader) of the evil team. Like Malva being part of Team Flare but more.
I mean N is the champion when you fight him
Personally when playing through XY I kinda hoped that's what they planned for Diantha. Just having Lysander as a red herring cause "wow this guy is so comically angsty he must be the bad guy" only to get to the champion's hall and find out Diantha had been manipulating him and pulling the strings to get him to wreak havoc.
â@@douglasnewdell that whould have been dope, i personally am a little fond of Diantha since i watched the X and Y anime very young but that plot twist whould make me genuinely like her

Your take on Kalos totally makes sense. Just imagine if they had switched up Diantha and Velerie from the start. So now the champion uses the brand new type which is suddenly the strongest type in the game. Also Valerie already has a champion worthy outfit.

Lol orginshipping be like
@@gogoyugirl9713 lol no but fr, Wallace is a very strong trainer. People just donât notice it since he is the last gym leader so by the time you get there your entire team is already evolved and at a higher level. But Wallace is in fact the stronger water type trainer in the entire franchise (one of the strongest types), plus being famously known as the face of the pokemon beauty contests (which are very popular). With those two unique attributes itâs very clear why he was the best candidate to be Champion.

Valerie always felt more interesting than Diantha and had a presence to be more than just the sixth gym leader to me. She definitely wouldâve been an awesome champion who specializes in fairy types with a mega mawile as her ace.
If she had a mega mawile, she might rival sabrina and whitney

For Black and White: Finally, there is a fighting type user who has a chance at becoming the champion.
Also, Hop is genuinely a powerful trainer who is definitely worth considering. By the end of the game, he easily matches up with his brother and gives a pretty great challenge. If he tried to be champion, I can see him doing it. The only reason he wasnât was because we were his fight leading up to the finals.
X and Y should've had Professor Sycamore be champion imo. Would've been so fitting and a way better choice over Diantha

I think Lorelei would have a pretty good chance against Lance. Her entire team is ice themed, one of dragonâs only weaknesses, and the vast majority are also water, doing well against his Charizard and Aerodactyl
Her Lapras can also learn Thunderbolt and electrocute Gyarados.
I don't think she wants to champion tho as she literally retired from being an elite 4 so I doubt she would wanna be champion
Wally could have a great team in Emerald in the post game.
Gardevoir, Altaria, Breloom, Arcanine, Ampharos, and Tyranitar.
I think these Pokémon fit him better in terms of personality. He already has Gardevoirand Altaria.
I think Breloom is a useful Pokémon he probably should have had instead of Roselia.
Arcanine is like a guard dog for him.
Ampharos is a friendly PokĂ©mon that I could see comforting him when heâs struggling.
And Tyranitar is a pseudo legendary that wasnât used in the previous generation. Itâs dark typing counters psychic and ghost, and the rock is good against flying and bug. It would be the equivalent of his Gen 6 Garchomp. Both contrast his timid nature.
I like the idea of Koga being the Champion eventually. Seeing him go from gym leaders to E4 to Champion would make him even more of an absolute legend.

I could've sworn Juan mentioned Wallace beating Steven due to Steven being more interested in rock collecting. Also, the gen 6 remakes of gen 3 also take place in the 3 year time difference so wally definitely has his gen 6 best team
Lysander has the greatest chance in my opinion if he didn't die
But he doesn't in Ultra Sun and Moon, so we can use his team from there and fill the gaps at Diantha

That's what I use
For Emerald, Steven gave his position to Wallace to find more stones, he didn't get beaten
thats never actually said. ORAS has Steven say he's planning on leaving, and tells Wallace that when he does, he'll be champ tho
@@Mariokemon I think that is meant to be a joke
@Mala Ghosh itâs a joke because heâs saying Steven would straight up give up being champion just because he loves stones, and itâs pretty funny if you ask me
the joke aside its not entirely wrong. the closes story reason for the change comes from the ruby and sapphire chapter of the pokemon adventure manga. its stated there that wallace did beat steven and became champion, but didn't take the mantle because he wanted to secede his master juan as the 8th gym leader. also because he and winona where a thing and he wanted to be closee to her. at the end of that section steven gives the title back to wallace and some time things happen and so it stays that way for emerald. as for the emerald section it focuses on the battle frontier mostly from what I remember.
@@Balistic_Vortex pokemon adventure is a different canon to the games, like the anime

Just so you're aware, the Steven and Wallace relationship was elaborated upon in ORAS. There's even a cutscene at the end of the game where Steven says something along the lines of "when the time comes you might have to take my place" or something like that, implying Emerald is just another timeline where Wallace succeeds him sooner compared to story events, similar to how Team Rocket just does all their relevant story events a year later in LGPE vs. the Kanto games where Red and Blue are just leaving Pallet Town.
Wait, LGPE is confirmed to take place a year later than when RBY would have taken place?

I think lorelei should be an honorable mention for Kanto, she's very confident but extremely professional and i mean...She's the Ice-Type Elite four member.

Chicks a monster honestly.
Mamoswine is gen 4, FRLG is gen 3. Thus she can't have Mamoswine in it.

@@joshuaarnett762 True but if she gets a mega lucario instead that would be far more of a buff to her team since not only Lucario would be more useful, it's also the only steel type in her team, the type that defeats both Ice and Fairy, Garchomp's main counters
in the battle tower as the player's partner, riley does have the option of using a mamoswine, a gyarados with ice fang, or even a garchomp of his own

to be honest that sounds like hes living his best life. everyone take a lesson from steven to do whatever makes you happy even if maybe its a bit out of the box.
Just as an FYI, the Steven vs Wallace debate is settled with the manga which I understand you not using. The manga explains that Wallace is the champion as he beat Steven, but refused to take the throne, preferring being visited by more trainers as a gym leader and also being able to leave to still show up at contests. So yeah: Wallace is the technical champion, but let Steven keep the role, Steven was originally champion.

In Emerald, I'm pretty sure it was mentioned that Steven straight up never tried to become champion due to him quitting competitive training in favor of continuing his hobby as a geologist, and somehow this... let him train his pokemon to be stronger than in the universe where he became champion...?
In R/S he's busy taking on challengers, dealing with Hoenn's many problems(people breath ash! Too much water!) and his father's corporation
In Emerald he's chilling training his pokemon and following his passion by making them casually crush boulders for a living
@@ale-xsantos1078 well hell if all I need to do be a better trainer than the friggin champion is to spam Rock Smash, I need to go purchase a copy of Spelunky

That or smash the rocks by headbutting them alongside your pokemon, it's pretty much what he seems to be doing
Actually nothing much is mentioned in Emerald concerning Steven and Championship title. I think that decision was less plot and more the creators wanted a Red-Champion-esque battle like G/S/C, given it had already proven to be popular. Considering Emerald is an alternate tale to Ruby/Sapphire. It actually opens a lot of possibilities:
1. Steven was champion but is later defeated by Wallace (how the protagonist of the games does it every time, and how we saw Iris take the title from Alder)
2. Wallace was champion, Steven defeated him and became champion, then retired and the championship title automatically reverted to Wallace since he was the last to hold it (Ex: Red left, his title reverted to Blue/Green, Blue/Green rejected it so it reverted to the highest ranking Elite 4 member.)
3. Wallace was champion and Steven defeated him, but decided not to take the title so it remained with the current champion
4. Wallace was champion and Steven didn't defeat him/didn't attempt to
I have this faint memory of beating Steven and then all he has to say after that is "Hmm". I can't actually remember but I just have this memory of him being salty that he lost to the mc
I think the Steven-Wallace champion debacle was solved in the anime. Wallace was champion in Hoenn during the Wallace Cup in Diamond and Pearl and then in Journeys Master 8 tournament Steven had said he had recently became Hoenn Champion đ
The thing with Steven and Wallace is a shout out to the manga, where Steven was runner-up, but Wallace turned down the position because he's in love with Wynonna
In ORAS there's the post-game scene of Steven talking to Wallace about quitting being champion and Wallace taking over for him
"Where's [insert player name here]?" "Gone, reduced to atoms"
You should have gone for the head
"Diantha is the worst champion"
Geeta: Finally! A worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!
We need fanart of all these new champion teams!

Our protagonist in emerald got so occupied with team magma and team aqua, Steven got bored and walked down his throne đđ
"Ta-ta shower buddy!"
"Don't call me that in-. And he's gone."
Wally being champion is something I want to see. The underdog coming out on top, proving to all what he's not the meek boy he was perceived as is a great thing people enjoy.
Also, imagine Lysander as champion.
*Imagine what would happen to Ash if he went back to Kalos and Lysander was champion*
If Lysandre was Champion, I imagine he'd roll with a squad of Dark Types, replacing his Pyroar with Houndoom. He'd use this alongside Honchkrow, Liepard, Hydreigon, Pangoro, and his ace, Mega Gyarados.
*ahem* u mean *LYSANDRE*
Cool
I hate underdogs itâs corny AF
2:18 grunty boi about to make me act up.
Lmao Fr đ
Yes I will
There actually is an explanation for Wallace's cape in the PokeSpe manga. That cape is the signature champion cape of the Hoenn region, and Steven was the one in possession of it at first. It was later revealed that Wallace was supposed to be the Hoenn's champion, having won the League, but he refused the position because he wanted to inherit the position of Sootopolis gym leader from his mentor Juan, so the one to come in second at the time, Steven, became the champion instead. He later on returned said cape to its rightful owner Wallace during the climax of the manga.
So, yes, becoming the Hoenn champion does give you a fancy cape.
Mikey: In Sun and Moon, you are the first champion
Hau: *"Am I a joke to you"*
I literally couldnât breathe while grunty boi was showering
Absurdly funny
Exactly

Wally on emerald:help,The protagonist defeated me with only a Swampert!
Wally rematch on oras: *I am the supreme champion of Hoenn with asthma and proved that even if you have a deadly disease,you can rise to the top*
I can see the elite four of Hoenn taking care of Wally.
