I relate to Jacob's Vaporeon struggle. My favorite pokemon was Gardevoir, because I thought it looked really elegant, and if you're a human male and say the words "Gardevoir is my favorite pokemon" people instantly think you just browse r34 all day.
a fellow man who has to live the struggle. she’s my favorite too because of the pokedex entries being raw af and really cool, her design is gorgeous, and psychic types are underrated. but i can’t *say* i like her cuz i’ll just get labeled as a degenerate instantly.
It makes the stream insanely rewatchable as well. I tuned in when he initially ranked them all on stream, and watched it again before this video came out...and then watched the stream over the course of a few days at work 🤣
“I’d like to place him next to Staraptor, but finding an individual Pokemon on this tier list sounds like an impossible feat” He said while hovering right next to Staraptor
Eevee is my favorite pokemon, but I do understand how they have become a franchise icon so it can be pretty easy to lose your love for them. I just love how cute and fluffy Eevee is, and that they can change into so many types. BTW: my favorite Eevee evolution is Umbreon
Eevee becoming my absolute favorite pokemon snuck up on me. I've always liked it, but gen 6 rekindled a lot of that love through the amie. Seeing the other eevolutions there sold me on most of them. I used to like espeon more until I saw umbreon in Y. It's honestly very close between leafeon and umbreon being my favorite eevolutions.
He's also one of the best HM users when paired with Dragonite in Gen 2. Flash/Cut/RockSmash/Dig (or Sweet Scent) on Parasect, Strength/Waterfall/Whirlpool/Fly on Dragonite, then just put Surf on your main Water Pokémon of choice.
@@mr.stuffdoer8483 Yep. Gen 1 was very poorly coded and balanced. For example, Ghost attacks did nothing to Psychic Pokémon, and the only Dragon-type attack always did 40 damage regardless of weakness.
fun fact: bruxish is based on a fish called the reef triggerfish, or the “humuhumunukunukuapua'a”. it looks just as stupid in real life, and i didn’t care too much about bruxish- until i learned this. in a little show called octonauts, they taught us about this fish, giving it a special place in my heart. does it look stupid? yes. is it a fish with teeth? yes. but i still love him.
I know it because of a Toy Story short where they went to Hawaii and Mr. Potato Head DRILLED that name into my brain. So when Bruxish was announced I was very happy, plus it’s my EXACT brand of garish and unnerving. For those curious, it’s pronounced “hoomoohoomoonookunookuahpoowah-ah”
I like how each different gen has their own music instead of one continuous song. It really separates the generation and makes it special. It's very nostalgic.
Glaceon, Milotic, Gardevoir and Chandelure are peak Pokémon for me. I think it's the elegant designs and cries, as well as some personal attachment. Grew to love the Gardevoir line because it was my first Pokémon I caught miraculously, and the Airalin comics. Love Glaceon due to one my friend trading me back in Diamond that I still have (her name is Evoli; Timid nature). I also like the more lean and speed-oreiented 'mon, so Quilava, Pikachu, Sneazle, Buizel, etc are up there. Of course, Lucario, Lapras, Snorlax, Lopunny, Mawhile, Braixen, Torterra, Chespin, Emolga, Joltik, Staraptor, Sylveon, Luxray, Lillipup, Lunala, and Primarina, are up there as well.
I think the best compliment I can give you as a creator is that I feel more excited about watching a full hour video of your content than I do watching a 20 minute video of the video game I've played for 10 years.
the difference is a fish just flops around; which is funny and a bull is not and remoraid is just a fish....again....which is not funny magikarp also has splash(does nothing) and a funny gimmick where he learns nothing but tackle and flail at lvl 40 which is another gimmick that you can build a team around to sweep with a "useless" fish....which is funny (im not including egg moves or event moves, as funny as hyperbeam on karp is), magikarps shiny form is also really nice also if we're going to talk about just a fish...again....again, feebas circles around from being not funny to a pokemon i actively hate for being just another magikarp but worse(design wise) and only pick up purely cause i love milotic so much
i love cacnea specifically because of that one episode of the anime, when James recognizes he isn't a good enough trainer to teach his cacnea a move it wants to learn, and so he gives it to another trainer. It made me cry. I like wooper and quagsire because of the "acquire the sire" meme
Before I state my opinion I just gotta say that I love how fast paced this video is with the editing. Meganium looks like just a walking vegetable to me so I totally understand why you'd want to eat it and Marill was literally a meat shield for a nuzlocke I did once so it definitely has puntable energy. I feel like I could kick it like a football and it'll smile all the way as it flew. If you felt nothing for Grovyle before (which I can't see how you wouldn't cuz he's so cool and has a laid back expression) Explorers will make you feel something. And that is a fact.
Remoraid was originally meant to be drawn like a hand gun but got modded because it's a children's game and then Octillery was meant to have a general helmet and be in a lil tank. They would have been so coooool.
i'm not gonna pretend to be mad that you put arcanine in JUST "AWESOME" considering it's the best goodest boy to exist i'm gonna be actual mad what the fuck
It's crazy how experiences with a Pokemon can do a full 180 on your opinion of them. Like I could not care less about Mothim and Golduck before Legends Arceus but I found their shinies and got super attached to them. Hypothermia the shiny Golduck ended up being the most powerful member of my team.
Yeah, legends arceus really changed peoples thoughts on certain pokemon. Parasect is a perfect example. Most people didnt care for it but now most hate it and are terrified of it
I never gave a shit about Golduck either until I WAS ONE in Mystery Dungeon DX and started loving it. Think my first ever level 100 Pokémon in any game ever
Same thing happened with me and Drifloon in Pokemon Reborn, I reset on a certain event not liking the stats I got on it, and when I got into an encounter with them again, not only was it shiny, but it also came with pokerus, needless to say that I now value her just as much as my starter.
Yup. Used a Leafeon in Legends Arceus, and now I appreciate the cute little leaf cat a lot more now On the other hand, I have a hatred for Fearow and Heracross because each of them have killed pokemon in my nuzlocke
I came into this video thinking ‘If luxray isn’t A tier or more i’m gone” then this bastard goes and puts him in peak pokemon tier and now i’m here forever.
Is it just me or has Jacob's editing been climbing higher with each video? He's really utilizing his talent of split-second comedy instead of his usual post-ironic drawn out jokes, and I absolutely love it.
32:43 You’re not the only one who thought that. In a Pokémon based Tabletop game I play the DM made a spamton Porygon Z encounter and it was pretty funny.
Honestly, massive respect gained for Quilladin. I love the little lad. He's so goofy and the amount of hate he got just made me love him even more than I previously did.
Me and Stunfisk. I started liking him ironically because of the bacllash he got, but then I started using it and realized how awesome he actually is. I popped off when I found Galarian Stunfisk
I honor and respect the love for the Gen3 Mons! Gen 3 has the most playtime of all gens (emerald and alpha sapphire) played by me and nostalgia hits me the most there and blazekin sceptile and swampert just hit different after all this time ❤
Respect to those who learned that Jacob's bi through this video. Even more respect to those who knew it because of that one endless easy Mario maker 2 video.
I was wondering why everyone brought up Vaporeon even back then when the smash or pass thing was popular. This video made me finally google what was the deal with and man do I wish I stayed innocent.
I vividly remember playing Pokémon sapphire(the 3D one) and getting a dunsparce and finding it very cute. It became my main starter in my lineup cause I wanted to evolve it… There is no evolution to dunsparce. But the time I had leveled them to like level 50, I finally decided to search it up, and I felt like a complete dumbass. But he was so cute that I didn’t want to box him XD
@@treemannick2969 lol omg I didn’t know it finally had an evolution now! I may never get back the time I spent leveling it, but I might try to evolve it in the new game now lol
I love that he generally ranked every pokemon subjectively on how much he likes them, and then ranked azelf based on its extremely good niche in gen 4 singles very-lead-inclined meta
My appreciation for Sawk and Throh skyrocketed once I realized their patterns look like quilting, implying their names reference sock puppets and throw pillows in addition to their fighting styles.
Happy to see Avalugg get some love in this list, personally they're in my top 10 through sheer audacity alone being able to tank physical hits better than *fucking Steelix* for no good reason. I love my ice table. Also, if you care for competitive singles in any way, to those disappointed by Vikavolt's lack of speed I highly recommend running a defensive spread with Volt Switch, Bug Buzz, Roost and your choice of Sticky Webs, Toxic or Thunder Wave. It does especially well in Gen 8 OU for some reason. Personally I landed on an ev spread of 88 HP 196 Def and 224 Sp.atk with a Modest or Bold Nature, but I've gotten mileage out of 252 HP and def with 4 in Sp.atk with a Bold nature especially as a Kartana switch-in as Kart does ~20-30% max or ~50-60% once with knock off and you ohko with bug buzz unless they're either focus sash or assault vest, which they're probably not.
I relate to your struggle with liking vaporeon. My favorite pokemon is Lopunny just because I think it would be fun to rail and everyone thinks Im a weirdo
At 19:55 he rates Lotad highly because he can drink out of him, which he says he looks for in a Pokemon, but he rated Miltank lowly for the same reason 🤔
"I'm gonna submit myself as kinda straight. (Shows Bi Flag)" I'm happier about that gag than I should be. I really liked it. I'm bi too that's probably why.
i’ve always loved darkrai but the movie “the rise of darkrai” made it my favourite pokemon of all time. the movie is so sweet and gut-wrenching for me, and the song “oracion” is genuinely magical. a song that’s said to calm even the greatest rage is true to real life and is so beautiful that i can’t help but feel calm hearing it. and darkrai’s line “this garden is for EVERYONE” is like a punch to the gut for me, it’s just so beautiful. the best pokémon movie of all time tbh, truly recommend you watch it. it made darkrai so good in my eyes. just think about it - a dark, evil looking pokemon that causes nightmares was truly good at heart all along, using its nightmares to warn people of an incoming disaster, and protecting weaker pokemon in a garden that has been cherished by pokemon and people alike for decades. and alice and her grandma, with the song, and darkrai mistaking alice for her and saving her life - it’s just such a good story. plus i’m japanese, so the name darkrai is cooler. dark + rai, sounds like dar-kurai and kurai means dark in japanese, so it’s like ultimate darkness. yet darkrai is truly a good being in actuality which is so beautiful to me. i really wish darkrai had a bigger role in the base games, the movie had such a good concept and idea. thanks for reading my rant about darkrai. i hope it’s bumped up a couple tiers after this, and i hope you watch “the rise of darkrai”
Alpharad is actually great, the fact I can watch an hour of just talking about each pokemon and it’s still phenomenally entertaining is what makes a good content creator
I find him mostly just hypocritical because he's been down bad for Lola bunny, and I think P5 Makoto too. I still remember his "I'd risk it all for Lola bunny" tweet
Idk I feel like Pokémon r different. Like I don’t feel any of that for Pokémon or Lola, but Pokémon especially r really emphasised as like a cross between friends and pets and I don’t want to fuck either of those, it just feels too weird and unhealthy for me to get into it so I think I get not liking that more than Lola who’s just a person outside of the anthropomorphism
@@Alpharad hey if it helps _I_ don't think you're a hypocrite. ... so long as you're not doing what a certain other CZcamsr I'm reminded of is doing and have an alt account on Tumblr where you willingly draw watersports fanart while still acting like a moral superior in public.
The PLA Shiny noise snapped me right awake, thank you for that bit of Pavlovian magic. Also am I really the ONLY person out there who likes Bruxish? The colors are Summery, it’s a fun twist on their IRL counterpart, they have some nice personality… I honestly miss them and hope they return to S/V.
Yes. You, out of the 7.whatever billion people on this planet, are the ONLY ONE who likes Bruxish. this is not hyperbole no one likes that stupid thing
An hour long video has never felt so short before this is really REALLY well edited big props. Also Breloom is peak pokemon there is no argument he's an angry punchy mushroom man with a cute lizard face he's PEAK
14:36 Flashbacks to my Shiny sunkern which was the first accidental shiny I'd encountered in like 5 years which only fueled my sunkern hatred to the point where it was personal-
I'm so impressed with this video, first Jacobs knowledge competetively as well as just his reactons of just "yeah hes cool" combined make for a super nice and interesting list. And the edeting.. just the way he did something visual for almost every single Pokemon, as well as him cutting down what he says so its just one sentence after another with no pause is just super pleasant to watch. No doubt my favourite tier list video of all time.
Gotta respect the time that not only goes into recording videos like this, but editing them as well. All the quick cuts and sound effects were really funny to me! I liked it!
Bruxish is my least favourite as well
pin of commemoration 👏
I saw this and thought wait what’s bruxish I had to look it up
Lol?
who actually likes bruxish? he’s gross
Bruxish deserves the same treatment as the chicken who give u a haunter with and everstone
“I really like the weed cat” is a powerful closing statement that I 100% agree with.
Yes.

Did you know in gen 1, Parasect had a 4x weakness to fire, flying, AND poison? Record high for the most 4x damage weaknesses in history.
He's also one of the best HM users when paired with Dragonite in Gen 2.
Flash/Cut/RockSmash/Dig (or Sweet Scent) on Parasect,
Strength/Waterfall/Whirlpool/Fly on Dragonite,

@@mr.stuffdoer8483 Yep. Gen 1 was very poorly coded and balanced. For example, Ghost attacks did nothing to Psychic Pokémon, and the only Dragon-type attack always did 40 damage regardless of weakness.
And right now it has Dry Skin, which combines with its typing to make it the only Pokemon in the game with an 8x weakness!

DUDE I remember that episode. As soon as I saw the name I was like…”this too familiar”. Thanks for the unlocked memory
The Octonauts theme is almost as cool as the High School Musical 2 song Humuhumunukunukuapua'a.
I like how each different gen has their own music instead of one continuous song. It really separates the generation and makes it special. It's very nostalgic.

speaking of endless easy, Researchers discover 2 billion year old nuclear reactor in northern Africa
It was a surprise to be sure.
@@DocStro But a welcome one.
@@ck_cal don't forget the real real ones who found out in a random Alphard Deluxe video
Grovyle still criminally low
Easily Best Mid Evolved Starter
@@kyogresfunchannel agreed
@@kyogresfunchannel I personally disagree just because I love Quilladin just because he's a hated cunky boy.
Best pokemon in explorer!
Peak Pokemon!
@@General.Grievous I like Quilava Too
58:00 "i always feel like it should be a pre-evolution", good news about the dlc!
I was wondering why everyone brought up Vaporeon even back then when the smash or pass thing was popular. This video made me finally google what was the deal with and man do I wish I stayed innocent.
Mr Rad, sir. Would you rather: Weed cat becoming bipedal, fire croc becoming fighting type, or water duck staying only water?
judging by the thumbnail, bipedal for sure
"I'm not a furry but" Alpharad 2022
My answer is duck staying water
Why are you saying hurtful things?
Bipedal cat, I won't mind them because another Fire/Fighting and pure type starter is boring.
7:44 Pokemon Challenges must have saved a lot of money, living rent free in Alpha's head for so long!
I vividly remember playing Pokémon sapphire(the 3D one) and getting a dunsparce and finding it very cute. It became my main starter in my lineup cause I wanted to evolve it…
There is no evolution to dunsparce.
But the time I had leveled them to like level 50, I finally decided to search it up, and I felt like a complete dumbass.
But he was so cute that I didn’t want to box him XD
How do you feel now that dunsparce has an evolution?
@@treemannick2969 lol omg I didn’t know it finally had an evolution now!
I may never get back the time I spent leveling it, but I might try to evolve it in the new game now lol
@@_helvetixa it is a rather silly evolution
@@_helvetixa I love dudunsparce it’s my fav Pokémon
I love whenever the moment is referenced at 7:48 , it's always the Jan clip - even on Alpharad's own channel
Alpharad: *puts Dewott into friend tier*
Me: *Visible Happiness*
Alpha: "I want a real life Lotad."
Also Alpha at 58:13: "I don't even know who you are."
Big credit to the editor for keeping this fast pass, exciting but summarises all of them
Thank you for another great tier list!
I love that he generally ranked every pokemon subjectively on how much he likes them, and then ranked azelf based on its extremely good niche in gen 4 singles very-lead-inclined meta
“I think having kids is cringe.”
Honestly never agreed with Jacob more tbh.
Bro as I read this comment the alpha said it
Having kids is based
Surprisingly found myself agreeing with this take more than half of his picks lmao
@@nicholascernatescu6685 no
@@justsock. yup lol
putting whimsicott on top was the biggest relief ive felt in a while
theres not a lot of videos i can watch in 2x speed and it work but this was one of them. added an extra lil layer of chaos
My appreciation for Sawk and Throh skyrocketed once I realized their patterns look like quilting, implying their names reference sock puppets and throw pillows in addition to their fighting styles.
I ascended when you put Altaria in peak Pokémon design. It's so underrated and I love dragon types that aren't conventionally reptilian!
I remember getting a boldore with an everstone from a surprise trade in swsh and Gigarok became part of the team
Happy to see Avalugg get some love in this list, personally they're in my top 10 through sheer audacity alone being able to tank physical hits better than *fucking Steelix* for no good reason. I love my ice table.
Also, if you care for competitive singles in any way, to those disappointed by Vikavolt's lack of speed I highly recommend running a defensive spread with Volt Switch, Bug Buzz, Roost and your choice of Sticky Webs, Toxic or Thunder Wave.
It does especially well in Gen 8 OU for some reason.
Personally I landed on an ev spread of 88 HP 196 Def and 224 Sp.atk with a Modest or Bold Nature, but I've gotten mileage out of 252 HP and def with 4 in Sp.atk with a Bold nature especially as a Kartana switch-in as Kart does ~20-30% max or ~50-60% once with knock off and you ohko with bug buzz unless they're either focus sash or assault vest, which they're probably not.
Now I'm gonna call them ice tables, thanks
I respect competitive Pokemon like it's another language
Glad you've turned this into a video, I probably wasn't gonna watcha 5 hour VOD.
Also nice to see sound
hmm
Came to see someone rank every pokemon, stayed for the fucking hilarious editing. earned a sub this is excellent
I loveee the mystery dungeon series you should totally do a video I've been trying to find one but no one's covered it 😭
Editing this video must have taken FOREVER. Props to you, Jacob (or just the person who edited the video).
Making it this fast is a good way for people to lose track of your opinions and not get mad at you! Good job!
49:23 I like how 4 of togedemarus points are about his roundness
the music at around 25:00 gave me a flashback to pokemon pinball ruby and sapphire
I've been grinding for shinies in Arceus recently, and the sound effect at 0:01 gave me a heart attack.
I'm not even playing arceus right now
I'm glad I'm not alone on that one.
Although, I don't grind, I find.
Same but I was on the wild
the incredibly fast pace of jump cuts make watching this video while sleep deprived feel like my mind and body are desynced
I relate to your struggle with liking vaporeon.
My favorite pokemon is Lopunny just because I think it would be fun to rail and everyone thinks Im a weirdo
relatable asf
Im so glad you put my top fav pokemon high on the list :)
At 19:55 he rates Lotad highly because he can drink out of him, which he says he looks for in a Pokemon, but he rated Miltank lowly for the same reason 🤔
Yeah but lotad is a literal cup, how cool is that
Milktank on the other hand is cow tits
"I'm gonna submit myself as kinda straight. (Shows Bi Flag)" I'm happier about that gag than I should be. I really liked it. I'm bi too that's probably why.
Hey same lmao
Same boat.
Hello fellow bi guys
He actually came out in a mario maker episode on alpharad plus
@@AceAureus and gal*
i’ve always loved darkrai but the movie “the rise of darkrai” made it my favourite pokemon of all time. the movie is so sweet and gut-wrenching for me, and the song “oracion” is genuinely magical. a song that’s said to calm even the greatest rage is true to real life and is so beautiful that i can’t help but feel calm hearing it.
and darkrai’s line “this garden is for EVERYONE” is like a punch to the gut for me, it’s just so beautiful.
the best pokémon movie of all time tbh, truly recommend you watch it. it made darkrai so good in my eyes.
just think about it - a dark, evil looking pokemon that causes nightmares was truly good at heart all along, using its nightmares to warn people of an incoming disaster, and protecting weaker pokemon in a garden that has been cherished by pokemon and people alike for decades. and alice and her grandma, with the song, and darkrai mistaking alice for her and saving her life - it’s just such a good story.
plus i’m japanese, so the name darkrai is cooler. dark + rai, sounds like dar-kurai and kurai means dark in japanese, so it’s like ultimate darkness. yet darkrai is truly a good being in actuality which is so beautiful to me.
i really wish darkrai had a bigger role in the base games, the movie had such a good concept and idea.
thanks for reading my rant about darkrai. i hope it’s bumped up a couple tiers after this, and i hope you watch “the rise of darkrai”
Alpharad is actually great, the fact I can watch an hour of just talking about each pokemon and it’s still phenomenally entertaining is what makes a good content creator
Jacob has this recurring theme of being extremely harsh to coomers and I can't tell if it's based or cringe.
I find him mostly just hypocritical because he's been down bad for Lola bunny, and I think P5 Makoto too. I still remember his "I'd risk it all for Lola bunny" tweet
Idk I feel like Pokémon r different. Like I don’t feel any of that for Pokémon or Lola, but Pokémon especially r really emphasised as like a cross between friends and pets and I don’t want to fuck either of those, it just feels too weird and unhealthy for me to get into it so I think I get not liking that more than Lola who’s just a person outside of the anthropomorphism
You make one joke about Lola Bunny and suddenly you're a hypocrite
@@Alpharad based
@@Alpharad hey if it helps _I_ don't think you're a hypocrite.
... so long as you're not doing what a certain other CZcamsr I'm reminded of is doing and have an alt account on Tumblr where you willingly draw watersports fanart while still acting like a moral superior in public.
The PLA Shiny noise snapped me right awake, thank you for that bit of Pavlovian magic.
Also am I really the ONLY person out there who likes Bruxish? The colors are Summery, it’s a fun twist on their IRL counterpart, they have some nice personality… I honestly miss them and hope they return to S/V.
I think it looks really cool, but I forget it exists so I've never used it.
Yes.
You, out of the 7.whatever billion people on this planet, are the ONLY ONE who likes Bruxish.
this is not hyperbole no one likes that stupid thing
the shiny noise upon opening the video nearly gave me a heart attack
Imagine living in the world of Pokémon and waking up to a damn Mr mime at the end of your bed..
19:02 “Marshtomp, he looks deranged, and I like that. He just looks like he sh*t his pants and didn’t realize”
4:16 I love how he says our channel. I really shows how much a fanbase can affect someone. thank you alpharad.
also, rip old thumbnail.
how the fuck did alpharad successfully captivate me to watch this entire hour long video
Dude. You just instantly brought back memories as a little kid, holding onto unevolved Nidorino and Nidorina cause I thought they were so cool.
seeing rotom in top tier made me so happy, he's a huge childhood favorite, he was my first shiny card lol
"Friend" and "just a little guy" have become some of my favorite ways to describe small fictional characters
Gotta love the 9-11 reference to tentacruel...especially when I checked the time and it was 9:11am...
Vileplume is great and I think it needs more attention and im glad to see you enjoy it
An hour long video has never felt so short before this is really REALLY well edited big props.
Also Breloom is peak pokemon there is no argument he's an angry punchy mushroom man with a cute lizard face he's PEAK

14:36 Flashbacks to my Shiny sunkern which was the first accidental shiny I'd encountered in like 5 years which only fueled my sunkern hatred to the point where it was personal-
you‘re favorite pokemon absol made me respect you bro. since it was introduced i‘m obsessed with absol i love it so much
I'm so impressed with this video, first Jacobs knowledge competetively as well as just his reactons of just "yeah hes cool" combined make for a super nice and interesting list. And the edeting.. just the way he did something visual for almost every single Pokemon, as well as him cutting down what he says so its just one sentence after another with no pause is just super pleasant to watch. No doubt my favourite tier list video of all time.
Gotta respect the time that not only goes into recording videos like this, but editing them as well. All the quick cuts and sound effects were really funny to me! I liked it!
