He liked Fuecoco so much he was speechless
Edit: The joke is dead. Ya hate ta see it
HEHEHE
Alright take my like and get out of here
@Don't Read My Profile Photo *ahem.*
Shut up.
The man was too stunned to speak.
@@livi_bwop I don't get it what's the joke
Honestly, the issue of no voice for the majority of the Fuecoco line just made the starter slowly rising to peak that much better.
it was not a mistake....... it was a........... decision?
The complete lack of vocals but the sound effects still being present is absolutely incredible
@@Alpharad sure. Let's go with that.
@@Alpharadbut was it the optimal play?
Yes ofc it was
I think my favourite part of Iron Valiant is that it isn't a fusion of Gardevoir and Gallade. It's a fusion of MEGA Gardevoir and MEGA Gallade, just as Roaring Moon is Mega Salamence.
And no one can tell me that it’s fighting animation where it takes off it’s two blades and wields them like a dual-sided staff Darth Maul style isn’t the best thing Pokemon has ever made.
@@kookio4284 it's like Pit from Kid Icarus' weapon being a staff/individual blade stance swap weapon except done EVEN BETTER and its tacked onto the most GENDER pokemon
@@byzantine5761 truly gender bait
Think the worst part is that it uses a weapon, and it clips through the skirt.
True gender bait also attracts robo-sexuals
10:56 personally, Klawf is an enemy because its ability plays FIVE SEPARATE ANIMATIONS for the stat boosts
Imagine missing audio, could NOT be me.
Hmmmmm
Yup
You could never
Never would miss audio because I don't make content
Probably cut on purpose cuz he doesn't love the Fuecoco line as much as the rest of us. Chat was probably raging hahaha
I also really hope the trope of "small woman, big hammer" never dies. I find it very strange that this combo always works so well but I sure as hell ain't complaining.
Tinkaton and Power are two examples, who else do you have in mind?
@@LunaroseClaire Amy rose
@@LunaroseClaire Amy Rose is also pretty cool to me personally.
@@LunaroseClaire Sena from XC3, Electra from XC2 and Nora from RWBY are my contributions
Annette from Fire Emblem 3 Houses is tiny woman big hammer as well, very cool
Tinkaton is my ideal pokemon. It’s small, cute, and has a face that suggests that it can’t count how many fingers it has. However, what really sells it for me is that it actually has the strength and necessary know-how to make a massive hammer with its bare hands, and that it uses said hammer to cause problems. I also find it hilarious that its preferred prey item is this big majestic bird and that it hunts them to the extent that they changed the whole taxi system.
Love this mischievous little goblin. 10/10.
el duende maldito
I caught one for my Violet team and named it SMACK. It brings me great joy to see "Go! SMACK the Paldean Champion."
The pokedex notes its intelligence
She'd work perfectly with the nickname Gaea Rage
@@tristangollott2958"well if you say so"
It's actually rather funny how he talks about Pikachu gaining other types if he was dripped out, because that's literally what happens in Omega Ruby and Alpha Saphire
I love Fuecoco. He just looks like he eats dirt and I’m honestly so proud of him for that.
and he is proud for eating dirt
LOLOLOLOLOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wait, isn't he weak to Ground?
*Someone call the paramedics!*
@@bluebaron6811 **Disclaimer: Always keep a safe distance when pumping the stomach of a fire type.**
Hold on why does he actually do looking at his again?
This gen actually had a lot of bangers. Not just cool looking mons, but also really funny ones like Maushold and Dudunsparce.
Yeah, say what you want about S/V as a game, but the designs this gen were just so consistently good. Got some misses here and there ofc, but I genuinely had so much trouble choosing my casual play through team because I loved just so many of them
Don't forget Flamigo. Huge respect for anyone who just removes a single letter from an existing animal and takes the rest of the day off
Too bad about the shinies
@@jmurray1110 Every mid shiny in these games is more than made up for by Chi-Yu and Koraidon’s shinies. Genuinely some of the best GF has made thus far.
I'll never get over the fact that Maushold is actually a seriously viable support option in competitive either
I think what makes Iron Valiant so much more interesting than the other Iron Paradoxes is that it does something wildly different from the other mons: takes TWO mons’ Mega Forms, and combines them cybernetically. It’s just cooler that way, there is no word in that sentence that isn’t cool.
Well im not sure but the only other line that could do the same is the charmander line right ?
Maybe Mewtwo but it is a legendary and if we look at the X and Y form they could be on different ends with Mewtwo in the middle.
@@asimovvomisa4040 Well you could remove the mega form part of it and combine parallel lines. Like Nidoking and Nidoqueen, or Dustox and Beautifly, or Accelgor and Excavalier
@@ASquared544 Or go even further and fuse all 3 Hitmon- pokemon. Or all 8 Eevees.
@@SupermewX300Iron Disciple, the Paradox Pokémon combining all three Hitmons. A kind of ‘hidden limbs’ design where each set of hitmonlimbs fold in and out of the design for different moves… fucking badass
@@asimovvomisa4040 I think It's more due to the fact that Gardevoir and Gallade are two separate evolutions. From ralts Line so fusing their megas make sense.
Charmanders line however doesn't have any separated evolution lines. So fusing It's megas wouldn't work It's still Charizard.
honestly the main thing I like about sandy shocks is that the tera hat on it spins around because the part it's attached to is spinning, which is just absolutely comical
What I like about it is that the sand on it is based off of irl magnetic sand, showing that this pokemon was always going to be magnetic, even if devoid of steel.
I'm going to have to catch one to see this, that sounds hilarious
I think not knowing Jacob’s opinion on Fuecoco and just seeing him execute an attack against the whole line is so much funnier
69
I love the silence from alpharad from pure SHOCK and not because his mic cut out
6:55 "Can I just trick out Pikachu, and now he's fire type?" Yes, Jacob, that's the whole gimmick of the game.
"if you give them an everstone, they still evolve, because fuck you, they're busy!"
-alpharad 2023, discussing Tandemaus
Please keep the Fuecoco part as it is, it's perfect
rip he changed it
@@marcusjc0bl0l Unsubbing time
Funny story, when I first got violet I chose Sprigatito and decided to name it Masquerade on a whim. I didn't know that it would evolve into Meowscarada, I just chose that name.
The reason why I chose that name was because I was playing Branded in yugioh, around the time the game was released, and Masquerade the blazing dragon is pretty good.
AKA, Masquerade the tax dragon.
I did the same but with Aleister. I was very close to calling him Aluber though.
I named him Felix because it was the perfect pokemon to name after my favorite character lmao
That’s so funny I named mine Aluber! I also named my Ceruledge Albaz
Why does Aluber rhyme with goober
Counter point, Meowscarada is technically a rogue, so he don't pay taxes, he can't be the tax dragon. Also, happy to know that we are all on the same note because I called my Meowscarada Aluber
I enjoyed watching Quaquaval slowly but steadily rise in rank from beginning to end. He’s a great mon who really does grow on you.
I liked your call-out to Sena when talking about Tinkaton. That's what I named my lil' pink hammer-girl!
I caught the first Girafarig I could find, because I was intrigued, and I accidentally caught the biggest one possible. I roll up to every fight and Farigiraf was so broken that she didn’t fit on screen.
Ooo boy a tier list! Can't wait for everyone to be nice and agreeable in the comments
I fucking disagree with everything and will now start a war to annihilape everything to the void and stand victorious in the end as the toxic monster that I am and will definitely be proud of everything I did and the life’s I ruined along the way while laughing like a psychopath and do other heinous crimes like breaking spaghetti. And I will definitely go bully other people on the internet for disagreeing with me and I will sue you for disagreeing with me and calling me crazy and also since you stabbed me and killed me 5 minutes ago
It’s frustrating that he still doesn’t understand the Team Star story, even after the comments berated him for it.
@@thirty3deejays313 I swear to god every playthrough just doesn't pay attention to the actual point of that story, and then criticizes it for stuff it doesn't do, it's so frustrating
@@_piranha I mean I get the point of it, but it's just not interesting. like the whole thing happens because penny is a pussy and can't talk to her friends. and I do understand her, but it's just typical middle school shit. the only difference is the middle schooler is embezzling funds and instead of using her smarts for productive shit, she's using them to disband a group she created through a fucking floating tablet.
@@_piranha fr? can you explain what he was thinking and what it was actually cause i don’t get it either
17:46 "Gender became confused!" in the image floored me. xD
I love Cettodle. The way they just run up to you and stare at you in the mountains. So funny
So glad we all agree that Clodsire is peak design! He's just a round friend :]
The audio issue at the beginning made 0:57 so funny for me. Just Jacob raising up Crocalor with music blasting in the background
Tinkaton easily catapulted into the top levels of my favorite pokemon of all time. She's just a happy, little murder goblin and I love her for it.
Iron Valiant was single handily the reason I got into Gen 9 competitive. I nicknamed mine "Ladiesknight"
That fuecoco line part was easily the best part of that video
19:28 I don't why this caught me off guard when it cut straight to tinkatink
The capsacid line makes me sad because I was really hoping for a taco pokemon. Like, both a taco and a pepper make sense, but I think the taco would've been funnier.
the problem i had in this game is that theres so many really cool pokemon. not only did so many of my all time favourites return for me to pick up but theres so many new ones i absolutely love. it made only 6 slots in my team feel so restricting when theres like 25 pokemon i want to use
that just means there is a lot of replay value though
Not the identity fraud…
The lack of a voice for fuecoco makes it sound like: “No thoughts. Head Empty”
I think the missing audio for Fuecoco also most makes it better. He needs no explanation for why they’re peak.
"It gets a pass because it's Godzilla" - Jacob RE: Iron Thorns, but not Baxcalibur.
Fun fact about Lokix: It’s based off of the Kamen Rider franchise. (Average colors being based on KR Black, and shiny colors being based on Zero-One.)
loved fuecoco just being silence and then getting hit by the moai sfx out of the blue
The future paradox should have had other minerals/elements/metals/etc as the first part of the name.
Phospher Moth
Sparking Fist
Polar Bundle
Tungsten jugulis
Platinum Valiant
Silver Serpent
and then their shinies could've been coloured based on those instead of all just being chrome
like imagine Rose Valiant with a rose gold shiny, or Obsidian Thorns, or Azure Hands with that lovely blue
1. Damn right Winged King is sick asf
2. Tinkaton is amazing, killing a steel bird for fun and crafting a hammer out of it so much, corviknights avoid the region, you notice the flying taxi symbol is no longer a corviknight but a squakabilly meaning they couldn't keep corviknight in that region because it wasnt safe.
Alpha has very... discriptive examples on what you would do to some pokemon.
And not even in the normal way
"I want to pop Glimmet's nutsack"
Friendly reminder that Vaporeon is one of Alpharad's favorite Pokémon
And gardevoir. He says he doesn’t like her THAT way but watch his Pokémon infinite fusion stream and that lie gets destroyed real fast.
Hello Suspicious Temmie
@@IGoOofALot14 Hello!
Did you know
As i am writing this reply, this comment is on 69 likes and i think we should leave it like that
I don’t know how I never made the connection of tinkaton being the girl with the gall… thank you for opening my eyes
So, so many Xenoblade fans named their Tinkaton Sena it's crazy (I'm one of them)
@YasEmisDaBus I named mine Fiora because I wanted to have 2 per mainline game lol
Pyra & Mythra were Fuecocco, mareep
Tatsugiri and tinkaton were Shulk and Fiora
Staraptor and krookodile were Noah and Lanz
Goofy kids
The dung beetle reminds me of a Patton Oswalt bit when he says " No the shit beetle is industrious and..."
My Clodsire carried me through my Scarlet AND my Violet playthrough. Absolutely love you, Bubble. Peak mon in my heart
Seeing Meowscarada in PEAK make me happy :D
Same here. First time I picked a Grass Starter in a while. The last time before this being with Serperior.
as an enby I feel so validated whenever Jacob talks about iron valent
valent
Valent my beloved 🥺👉👈
@@cattiston374 thx

Smash
Sprigatitos Evolution be like:
Be the drug>Smuggle The Drug>Sell the Drug
Maybe the real Pokémon scarlet and violet Pokémon tier list were the friends we made along the way.
Already watched this 7 times and can say this is a certified alpharad classic
Funfact:
Baxcalibur is based on a real life dinosaur that really has just one Spine thingy on its back. The Concavenator. Also maybe a Spinosaurus.
This is like trying to talk to your friends on a call just to realize you forgot to unmute yourself 20 minutes later
ALPHA OH NO YOUR EDITOR MUTED YOUR MICROPHONE AT 0:46
6:16 WHAT DO YOU MEAN THOSE AREN’T HIS EYES??? Who let someone from the Kirby team design a Pokémon?!
Downside: they made another anthro furrybait starter with Meowscarada.
Upside: Its actually aesthetically pleasing to look at.
For me Meowscarada was the opposite of Incineroar. With Incineroar, the more I looked at it, the weirder it got. I started to notice its weird tube arms and yaoi hands sprouting out of its weird dorito shaped body.
Meanwhile Meowscarada stared out making me feel a bit uncomfortable due to the whole furry thing, but looking past that, its a clean design, and the little flourishes it does when performing and attacking give it a lot of personality.
My favorite of the three is still Quaquaval though. The rythmic dancing, the confident pose, the flourish of the tail feathers, its got everything. All three were pretty great this generation. Certainly a step up from Gen 8.
The moment I saw Iron Valiant I knew I needed one, and by one I mean I shiny hunted six of them
If Cetoddle and Cetitan are your enemy, then so am I. But for real, they're my favorite new Pokemon in about...five generations, I think. I just love the big doof energy
Fuecoco and his line are so perfect that they literally left you speechless
Alpha, i swear, comedic timing in this video was on POINT
To be fair though, bringing up the trope that Tinkaton uses of being a menace to society while wielding a weapon they definitely don't look like they should be able to use, and showing a picture of Sena from XC3 is kinda just....Accurate, that's the best way to say it.
Fun Fact: koraidon & miraidon Were The Second Boxart Legendaries Since The Gen 2 Boxart Legendaries/Tower Duo To Be A Legendary Duo.
Awesome, koraidon & miraidon Were The First Boxart Legendary Dragon Types To Be A Legendary Duo. Cause The Gen 4 & Gen 5 Boxart Dragon Type Legendaries Are Trios. (The Creation Trio & Tao Trio).
And koraidon & miraidon Were Known As The Paradox Duo.
0:42 once again, Jacob's favorite is the one with the most nsfw. the laws of the universe hold true
Fun Fact: Arboliva was supposed to have the Gardevoir treatment
If you look up Lokix's design origin then he becomes WAY cooler
The Lokix glow-up right into PEAK is beautiful
0:51 I sure I wish I knew what Alpharad said about my favorite Gen 9 starter Fuecoco
I found out in this video that glimora isn't just a single stage Mon and that's crazy to me
Finally someone agrees Meowscrarada is hype.
Also I need that quote about rabsca on a t shirt
6:16 I honestly didn't know that those center things are Bellibolts real eyes and not the goofy white ones on the side of his head. Makes me like it more actually.
The Legendary/Ruin Quartet, or whatever you want to call them, are so well-designed that they feel wasted on Scarlet and Violet. Especially since SV are based on Spain and they're Chinese.
Technically they are based on Chinese trade routes across Europe so it kind of fits (plus they have a good place on the lore) so I wouldn’t exactly call it a bad mix but the names really don’t fit
I still feel like the future paradox pokemon don't get enough love.
They won't, and that's okay. It's much harder to take them at face value, their animations help them to shine.
19:16 I just realised how much cooler Koraidon is than Miraidon..
Meowscarada is one of best design from the recent games
Oh man, I can't wait to hear Jacob's thoughts and opinions on Fuecoco! Surely the audio won't cut out during his section! :)
You know, for as broken of a mess S&V can be sometimes, can we all agree that the Pokemon design and concept for this generation have been really good, the best one since so long.
i actually hated most of this dex and none of it has grown on me 😭i think some of it lies in the fact that i think the overworld sprites look devoid of all life and have glass eyes lmao, my fav gen in somewhat recent times is alola
honestly i'd disagree. like, i feel like it's really hit or miss with this generation. a lot of them are really endearing and grow on you, but a good chunk of them just are eh at best. like, i personally feel like a lot of the new pokemon are just lazy and less interesting. hell, a bunch of them actually look worse after evolving from the baby stages. stuff like dudunsparse and flamigo i can get behind because it's funny, but some like bramblin and pawmot are just boring because they dont really hit the same way.
Alpharad: *puts Klawf in peak*
Me: *I sleep*
Also Alpharad: *Puts Cetoddle in enemy*
Me: *Real crap?*
Alphard yet again: *Puts Dudunsparce in mid tier*
Me: *Activated*
19:31 my headphones turned off on that moment, so for a moment i tought that the vidoe just ended, which to be fair would be very alpharad of alpharad
18:28 Live Wo-Chien Reaction
I think iron leafs is kinda underrated; can't wait to see that thing in shiny full chrome killer centaur mode
It's just Virizion...but metal
@@blobfish1649 Yeah, but the leaf-scarf can become a pair of throat-swords, along with a hidden sword in its' head.
But you'd never know that unless you see the animations, because the Violet Paradoxes are _more than meets the eye_ (Transformers reference).

@Tornait I've seen the animation but doesn't really change the fact it's just robot Virizion lol
I think all the iron Pokémon are underrated aside from Valiant
Since you said that Klawf was blushing i didn't see Klawf the same, great video btw.
HOLY SH*T HE'S RIGHT GIMMIGHOUL LOOKS LIKE THE REDDIT AVATAR
So glad to see Sena getting some love in this video
Honestly, fuecoco is too good to describe with words. The ranking for him needs nothing. All you need to do is look at him, and you’ll see it goes in PEAK.
I really like your thoughts about fuecoco. They were so intuitive and brought it into a new light for me. I feel as those inspiring words were a great insight on not only the fuecoco line, but Pokémon as a whole. I thank you for the words could change the Pokémon franchise as whole
Croconaw having that noise happen during a solid 10 seconds without talking killed me
"If you give them an everstone, they still evolve because fuck you." -Maushold
19:55 common Sena w
3:34 I completely agree with Alpharad. Dudunsparce is my all-time favorite Pokémon, and it's nice to know that someone has a good understanding for this masterpiece of a Pokémon.
Rabsca and Tatsugiri are my other two favorite Pokémon. I absolutely love Alpharad's perspective on Rabsca. 🤣
As for Tatsugiri, his perspective on it is great as well. I'm currently attempting to beat Pokémon Scarlet with only a Tatsugiri right now, as of saying this.
Awesome video, Alpharad! ❤
19:23 the most anty climactic part of the video
Klawf is one of my favorites. It's a good combo of silly little guy and badass giant cliff robot crab
I have my gripes with scarlet and violet but they absolutely nailed the pokemon. Nothing but bangers from this gen.
Unironically a pretty agreeable Tier-List with a few exceptions of course 👍
"it ate weed, and it got powerful" Snoop Dogg in a nutshell lmao
Did mr Alpharad put up a photo of shiny tauros when talking about him and expect us to not notice?
Fun fact about Iron Jugilus. It's the only paradox pokemon that was sent to a time it's not supposed to be in twice.
Ya know im at like 99% pokedex and i was still just today years old when i learned flittle evolves into espatha
Edit: i think if the future paradox pokemon should all be named after a metal, instead of iron it should be a metal with the same letter as thier second name, so Mercury Moth, Bronze Bundle, Titanium Treads, Vanadium Valient, and so on (tho the hydreigon being J does bring up a problem)
To be fair, it’s called Iron Jugulis because Iron Head is already an attack. So what about holmium? Hafnium?
9:25 I agree exactly with you on Pawmi- he’s just slightly bigger and he stood up! That’s it!
"Andro Valiant" would've been the perfect name for the future Gardevoir/Gallade, it's an androgynous android
The Quaxly line just makes me sad. Been waiting since gen 7 for water types to be cool again😔 First time around with the mermaid was fine, if a bit undesirable. Problem came with the weird Gex rip off reject in gen 8. Had my hopes up this time around too. It's a shame.
Watching this actually makes me appreciate gamefreak this generation for their mon designs- actually 🔥
21:47 seeing Klawf in peak at the end brings me joy. He's just a little funny crab fella.
17:09 i feel like if they made like deatachable heads he would be so much cooler, like, his headhands just becoming fucking drones or misiles wouldve making him so much better
