    Can we all take a moment to appreciate that in the Anime, Brock, the Rock-type Gym Leader, had the foresight to install sprinklers in his gym, even though he might not really need them, whereas Erika, the Grass-type Gym Leader did not.

    On that last fact, I think an explanation for why we don't see these other Gyms in the games is because the regions are as big as they are in the anime, but we don't travel to every town in the games, so we only get the eight specific badges, that's my head canon anyway.

    I love that the Gym Leaders got more personalities over the generations. In Gen 8 and 9 does every Gym Leader feel like hia own character. Like how Grusha has depressions and a tragic backstory with the snowboard accident.

  • @ES-dp6tw
    @ES-dp6tw Před 2 dny +4

    Masters has proven to be an interesting supply of facts on the character and nuances of the gym leaders, serving as a useful narrative tool between mainline games.
    Two examples I like is how Skyla will actually acknowledge the meme of her gym's obstacles being extravagent; she admits that a lot of challengers end up feeling so worn down by taking all the machine's abuse they don't always put up a good fight, which ties into what she says in BW2 about not having a memorable match in two years. More interestingly is that she mentions contributing to the designs of the obstacles, implicating she has mechanical engineering competence in addition to her piloting.
    The other is how Elesa has a more subtle take; she admits that when fans want photos with her, she tends to fall into the supermodel persona, cool and detached, and this makes Elesa feel a bit self-concious that she can't just relax and be herself. Adorably, she notes that she's at perfect ease with Skyla at least, so at least she has a reliable confidant to work on her insecurity.

    Comments talking about the (frankly disgusting) original thumbnail with Misty shirtless, his most popular video still has a similar thing there.
    Dude, your videos are actually interesting, but having a child (fictional or not) shirtless in the thumbnail is plain wrong no matter how you censor it. That sort of clickbait isn’t right, you’re attracting a disgusting group of people to your videos and the fact that you have the image saved in the first place is probably straight up illegal considering some laws that have come into place on this sort of stuff. Just for future reference, you can be better than this.

    Aaron couldn't have been the Oreburgh gym leader before Roark, because Byron was the previous gym leader. If I had to guess, I'd say Aaron was probably the gym leader of Canalave City instead. That would match up with Byron being asked to lead the Canalave gym and leaving the Oreburgh gym to Roark. Other than that, Maylene is probably Sinnoh's youngest gym leader, so he could have led the Veilstone gym as well.

    I think that if there's another Kanto game that is not a Legends style one, it should get a full-on map like SV so we can not only get the towns that we are used to from Kanto but also 2 or 3 more cities with all new Gyms, since that the extra Gym Badges that we see in the anime are mainly from Kanto anyway. That would be cool.

    The minor league gyms and major league gyms is most probably based off the County cricket system in England. I don't know if it's the same system for football or other sports, but if you want to be an international cricketer, you have to work your way up the ranks by playing in second XI county championship teams and second XI club teams and even lower ranks before you make it to the senior first XI teams and hopefully your own main state teams. The counties will have their own tournaments within their own regions and they again are classified into more zones, it's the case in all cricket playing countries but it's mostly in England that the second 11 teams are common

    Sorry Hoops, but I'm done & unsubscribing. I'm tired having to skip over nearly three minutes of Folkachi or sponsorship to get to the actual content, kinda disgusted how regularly you've used risqué thumbnails of Pokémon characters (Misty, Serena, the female swimmer, etc...), and also kinda over how you keep redoing the same starters multiple times over with different types, mega evolutions, split evolutions, regional variants, etc.. which are all essentially the same kind of starter redesign just under new names. Good luck with your channel and everything, but I'm gone.
