  • @Nexpo

  • @WowSuchGaming
    King K: There's a lack of fire types in Ruby and Sapphire Diamond and Pearl: It gets much worse
  • @NevG27
    I like how for Groudon, the ruby pokedex entry makes it seem violent and the sapphire one makes it seem like a saviour. And vice versa for Kyogre.

    My favorite memory of Gen 3 is when I realized the map is just a big square-shaped Yin-Yang symbol, separated diagonally, with Mt. Chimney and Sootopolis (both volcanic craters btw) as the Yin & Yang center dots respectively

    Hey Dude. I’m a schizophrenic. At night, before I fall asleep, even on medication, the voices in my head like to chime in. I’ve learned to deal with it for the most part but more times than I could count, I listen to your retrospectives to soothe me on my way to sleep. It gives me comfort in a way I hope you never know. Thank you a million times over. PS Twilight Princess is still the best Zelda.
  • @PadChennington
    Y'all remember the song that plays when u take the boat in the game? banger
  • @NicKVenTs
    If Wally was your “rival” I think it’d be a real feels bad having to beat a sick kid over and over to progress lol
  • @OkMakuTree
    KingK complaining about Gen 3’s lacking Fire type selection Gen 4 starts sweating
  • @rockyroshi
    The aesthetic of gen 3 will always be the colours of my childhood. Such beautiful pixel art
  • @TheTintedHalo
    Route 120's bombastic theme perfectly captures the spirit of happy, carefree adventure. When the rain clears, and you see yourself in the reflection of the puddles, watching the clouds in the background peacefully roll by, while the music cheers you on. Well, that's just one of the things that make generation 3 the most scenic, memorable games in the franchise.
  • Sometimes I still have dreams about Pokemon that are literally IN Generation 3's Hoenn style. Exploring dark caves, endless caverns, and of course all the water routes. Hoenn is still my absolute favorite region. No other generation has come close to giving me the feelings of wonder and adventure that this one did.
  • @HolyDemonSnap
    Forgot to mention how Regice, Regirock, and Registeel are pretty palpable allusions to the ice age, the stone age, and the steel age.
  • @rurintoge7425
    "Granted, Linoone was just there for moral support but thankfully he's very good at being cute." Way too relatable for me and my Sentrets/Furrets whenever games let me catch them.
  • @wozzaisme1108
    I seriously think this is one of the most well made series on YouTube just letting you know that we appreciate all hard work you put into these
  • @pimpinrain6523
    Nobody: That guy in the battle pike: IM GONNA BE A FATHER
  • @SomethingLegit1
    I actually like the idea that the villains and good guys switch in the versions. It brings home the point that taking an odea to much to the extreme can be dire. The premises of both teams are valid, it's just the extreme nature of them that is ridiculous. It shows you you that with moderation, those villains could be a force for good.
