How much Pokémon does Ash have
My favorite Pokémon in ash is pikachu greninja charizard
Location should be in legendary team
I'ma watch it
Was about to ask u for updated one
Can we appreciate that his s tier are filled with his insane starters and just starters? Made me quite happy.
He did exactly what most players would do in the games
Starters for the win 🤣😅
Starters are awesome!
Starters r MVPs Unless ur torterra or the unova starters
Pikachu isn't a Starter ._. Bro are y'all dumb 💀 just because Ash got special mc treatment doesn't make Pikachu a starter, like tf lmao.
You can be a whatever Lv99 Legendary but you can’t beat Lv255 Ash Pikachu.
Ash's Greninja (with Bond Phenomenon activated) could be the only one to even rival Ash's Pikachu, even at the highest level for each one.
@@321_au El Pikachu de Ash derrotó al Charizard de Lionel mientras que greninja perdió ante el Charizard de Alain
Level 5 snivy:allow me to introduce myself
Nebby: pathetic…
Even 100% zygarde loses to ash pikachu
This list aged pretty well, except Sir Fetched goes waaaayyy up. Pikachu is still GOAT
Yeah, as a Pikachu fan he is Greatest-Of-All-Time
Yea but this video was 1 year ago and the new eps is rn sooo
Gengar should've better ranked higher too but it was a year ago so I'm not stressing
@@flux3238 Pikachu is a male. You know because of his tail.
Pikachu is the greatest no question. And his Journeys team is full of A's and S's.
Here after Pikachu’s masterclass MVP performance against Leon
Pikachu took down two pokemon in every round.
The fact that Charizard is his only Pokemon in S tier without any external form/power up, z move and ability usage. You can tell he's truly a beast. Just think how broken he would be if he goes Mega or Gigantamax.
BRING HIM BACK
Exactly! He’s just strong off raw training which makes him the best
This is one of the best things I have heard so far charizard surpasses all of his ace mons in terms of raw power but the others have abilities of their own so all of his ace mons are kind of equal in strength which literally no one acknowledges
@@user-ii6hb9gu1k Very true I believe Ash Charizard will be equal to Alain's Charizard if he ever goes Mega. Their feats in base form are very similar.
You’re on to something with this one 👌🏽👍🏽
*Torkoal and Gengar in B tier* A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
EXACTLY!
Did not expect that one but it had some good reasoning.
Hey JPR tell him he's not taking in account that Darkrai had used Dream Eater twice. And one of those times was enough to knock out Heracross! so than Darkrai had to be if not 100% Mabye between 80 and 90% HP
@@totallyshorts4920 it's questionable if it worked on sceptile. But it did clap heracross so he was healed after that at least
Poor Gengar, you have to use him more often, Ash!
Darkrai was fully healed after its battle with Heracross because Dream Eater involves a healing process and Darkrai defeated Heracross with this single attack!
Not fully
@@bobobsenits probably was at full health
in regards to Sceptile against Darkrai, keep in mind that Darkrai got off some dream eaters that healed off the damage that it got before. Therefore, because Sceptile took it out with one leaf blade, it really says a lot about how powerful Sceptile actually is.
And the fact that Darkrai won the league finals alone lol
Yeah, Darkrai was definitely at full health after one shotting Heracross with Dream Eater and taking down Gible
Ash should have started with Sceptile or Snorlax vs Darkrai and won the league. I wanted to see him train for and fight the Sinnoh Elite 4 so much as a kid, I remember that loss vs Tobias and Ash in Unova made me stop watching Pokemon.
People always forget to mention that Tobias' Darkai was recovering most of the damage being dealt to it with the move Dream Eater so Sceptile's Leaf Blade was essentially a one-shot against one of the strongest pokemon in the entire series. Not to mention it withstood the most hits from it, including a super effective ice beam.
Dream eater only recovers half of the damage dealt. And given that it lived a mega horn from a guts boosted heracross, it definitely has a lot more hp than heracross and gible. So most likely it was fairly low hp.
OMG i forget about dream eater
Heracross' megahorn is a 140 power bug move, boosted by its supereffectiveness, stab and guts. I have no doubt that Darkrai was on the verge of defeat. So dream eater simply didn't recover sufficient health to be able to survive that leaf blade. So I still think heracross deserves most of the credit.
But sceptile still survives ice beam from a pokemon which defeats all And also woke up only by an ash voice I think thats our plot Club about his strength Still heracross is his strongest bug but sceptile is his strongest Grass type
@@fluent_styles6720 Remember that in the series legendaries most of the super effective moves aren’t doing that much damage remember ash vs noland nolands articuno had barely a scratch after ash’s charizards flamethrower so keep that in mind
Let's imagine Ash's team consisting of Pikachu, Greninja, Charizard, Infernape, Scepitile and Dragonite. This team would be fucking amazing: - Two fire type pokémon that is weak against water type? No problem, he has his incredible Pikachu and Sceptile to do the job, beside having Greninja who resistis Water Type moves. And despite having two Fire Type Pokémon, Charizard isn't weak to Ground and Infernape isn't weak to Rock. - Greninja and Sceptile are weak against Bug Type? Use Charizard, Infernape or Dragonite who resists them. - Now talking about 4x weakness. Charizard has trouble with Rock moves and Dragonite has problems with Ice moves.. Fortunatley, Ash can use Infernape Fighting moves or even Pikachu's iconic Iron Tail - Ash's strongest Pokémon, Pikachu, is weak against Ground moves, but he has a Flying Charizard and Greninja and Sceptile to counter them back with Water and Grass moves, Sceptile even resisting them. Pikachu is also very important against Flying Type Pokémon who can give trouble for Infernape and Sceptile.
One can dream
What about his lucario?
I feel like it’s infernape cause is returned only once and deserves some more time to shine after getting beat by moltres and also he shouldn’t use two fire types to often so lucario can come here
@@Paradox3427 I just took his 6 better pokémon, according this tier list, so Lucario couldn't make it into the team
@@danielcm4237 it'll probably make it once the Mega evolved v Gigantamax battle
I wonder how Charmander & Chimchar were left stranded by their trainers but ended up being one of the strongest of Ash's Pokemon That's great writing!
Their backstory is what connects the audience a lot dude. I equally like them as krokodile and sceptile
Pikachu = beyond god tier
Which other electric pokemon can damage or KO ground types using electric moves
Me a few minutes ago: Talonflame is best bird Swellow: catch this Donphan
Accurate af 😂😂😂😂😂
it's super effective!
It's still my fav I mean, it's a fire falcon
Staraptor the f**k wheres my whiting type move named close combact
Then toss it
I find the way Lucario tried to sneak his way into S Tier hilarious. A lot of these choices caught me off guard but nonetheless l agree with them. So glad Sceptile is considered legendary tier despite a few embarrassing losses. Great video, Zac, and happy birthday!
Thank you!
He might get there one day especially if it could mega evolve
@@realizedpotential6640 ash mega evolve his lucario
Lol Pikachu lost to a Snivy so Sceptile's losses are tame by comparison.
@@beakwooda.k.aadregallus8788 it’s embarrassing either way, but to be fair, Pikachu was all messed up cause of Zekrom if I remember correctly.
It’s crazy how on par your selection is and the fact he beat Leon’s charizard shows his strength
Even though he didn't have Butterfree for long, it's still one of my favs of Ash's, probably because it has a good story behind it, and bye bye butterfree hit us all in the feels.
Facts, butterfree is also Ashs’ first ever pokemon that he caught. In my eyes butterfree is a 🐐
@@f4irb4nks57 was my first catch on the original gameboy red and blue.
Ash's journeys team is just a beast. Even they have less training they defeated powerful trainer volkner's ace, iris's ace etc ,
Don’t wanna be a pessimistic person, but he kinda has a lot of plot armor
@@mylightb4sunrise611 well duh every show has one
@@mylightb4sunrise611 well duh every character in the pokemon franchise has plot armor. this is just a lazy excuse to downplay ash's mon. great example is tobias. just a random dude that came out of nowhere with an undefeated record and won the league. now that's bigger plot armor than ash which is supposed to be the running joke cause his the mc.
@@ren_yt3715 tbh tobias was there for only 1 ep, and he had a darkrai so i dont see any tbh, ash's dragonite defeating korrina's lucario w/o any experience is kind of unrealistic, which is kinda plot armor tbh, but its just an opinion :)
Not to mention they all look pretty fitting for a champion like ash to have (barring uglyvish)
Pikachu's analysis is why I also think it's Ash's strongest Pokemon. Pikachu might be a power house but it's still a fragile, light, tiny little rat. It's literally the definiton of a glass cannon. It can't take too many hits but if it starts dishing them out, you *better* get some good hits in or else you're fainting soon. It's probably the best Pokemon for Ash to bring to every region. Having it strong but small frail let's it lose more believably than Charizard or Sceptile. TLDR; Pikachu's awesome.
Ash is not the one with plot armor in Pokemon, Pikachu is
@@purgeblue lol stupid. everyone has plot armor in the anime. have you ever wondered why a bunch of kids never dies when there is a conflict between legendaries and god pokemon? and tobias just came out of nowhere with 2 legendaries and won the league. now that's plot armor.
Pikachu is a strange case. One minute he's overpowered and slays legendaries and Ground types, another minute he loses to level 5 Snivies. XD
@@cintronproductions9430 he didn,t have his moves, that snivy wasn't level 5 and ash sucks in unova
@@nikhilaggarwal8617 thank you. finally someone who know what happened in the black and white series. im sick of the level 5 snivy joke cause i know for a fact that snivy is so stacked that im surprised it did not even evolve into a serperior.
I think Pikachu now deserves his own tier now. Tier "P".
For "Probably using cheatcode" ?
17:12 - I love Dracovich's personality. Since it's a newborn (or newly resurrected), I love how it goes about figuring out how everything works, even its own body. First showing affection by nibbling and gnawing on Ash, learning how to swim at full speed by just running along the ocean floor, figuring out how to do Vicious Rend for the first time when Ash asks it if it can do it, and on top of that everyone's reactions whenever they see it pop up, since they have no idea what the heck it even is, lol. Iris's Dragonite's reaction to seeing it made me crack up, since it was like 'what the hell is that thing and why is it chewing on that human?' Also, that K.O combo Dracovich did on Dragonite was the quickest and most brutal K.O I've ever seen one of Ash's Pokemon do against such a powerful opponent. Just... damn...
Ikr dracovish just noms on anyone that gets in his way I mean he was literally biting on a dragonite xD
@@silvernapper2797 lucky he didn't try and make lunch out of it or else he would be in for it
That's fishious rend
@@eljordinio7647 for in what
The thing sounds like a bird with a voice, lol
Can’t argue about Pikachu. It’s strong enough to KO ground types with electric moves.
when he beat an onix using thunderbolt.
Pikachu looses to small fries because it has a hidden ability "Big game winner" gets bonus against the opponents with the higher total stats gets penalty for the opponents with lower total stats.
@@impulserl1848 after it got wet
@@eljordinio7647 It’s still impressive because logically dirt being wet should not make it take more damage from electricity. This is also shown in the game as even despite the rain weather effect being active a ground type Pokémon will still not take damage from an electric type move.
@@thatoneguybutYT water still conducts electricity nonetheless tho
I agree with this predominantly, Gengar’s going to be the Hawlucha of Pokemon Journeys - deals all the damage so others can finish them off, which means it’s going to have a shit win rate, but true stans know it’s role
At least hawlucha had a solid win record And being there to just weaken opponents isn't really that useful. A Pokemon shows promise when it racks up wins, more than losses
Gengar is going to be a tank with its G-Max form which is already confirmed.
So who's baby🤣 And I hate being called a stan🥲but I guess I can make an exception 🥲
@Master Wobbegong: MCU hater yeah I also had a thunder wave Pickachu in Emerald. I Also had a Flash Noctowl in crystal.
@@eljordinio7647 a better comparison for gengar is Buizel
I’m happy septile is high. Your videos are amazing. Keep up the good work❤ happy birthday
As of today, having pickachu as #1 is solidified
As if it wasn't already. Now there's just no doubt lol.
I think Greninja also deserved its spot because it went head-to-head with Diantha’s Mega Gardevoir, and once its Battle Bond was activated and in perfect sync with Ash, I believe it had a chance at defeating Mega Gardevoir if Ash hadn’t passed out.
it did it got s tier 2nd place strongest pokemon...
@@hangesecretlover3083 Yeah it should be first despite Pikachu having more accomplishments but the level of pokemon Greninja has come close to is definitely stronger than Pikachu's feats. For example, mega Charizard x went against the weather trio, zygarde, ten megas I really doubt Pikachu would last against the same Charizard after getting wrecked by it in it's normal form. Even with a z-move against the mega Alain's Charizard is definitely equal to or stronger than the average sub-legendary pokemon and ash Greninja almost beat it.
@@bigmonke3348 i dont agree with pikachu being 1st place because of the z move
@@hangesecretlover3083 agreed.
@@bigmonke3348 BROO THEIR IS SOME DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "ALMOST BEAT" AND "BEATING TONS OF LEGENDARY"
Darkrai one shotted heracross with dream eater and it’s super effective on top of that. Also got one in with sceptile. Pretty much recovered full health. Sceptile can take full credit
Exactly and people are saying that "I hAte sCePtIlE gEtting unworthy recognition cus heracross and gible damaged him" They aren't even thinkin' before saying it
Yesssss Darkrai defeated all of volkners pokemon with Darkrai only and the rest of the gyms so I'm sure it was still very powerful.
very true
@@Stormtrooper-oc4vn maybe he didn’t fight volkner because volkner stopped doing battles before ash or smth
Pee pee poo poo
I cant explain the hype i feel, th heartbeat rising, the goosebumps i get when you mention how strong Ash's infernape is... That fight against paul was the only ep I watched the day it released and it still is glued to my mind. Its the reason its my fav starter and i pick it always in any game i play🙌🏼
Bro got hard to a Pokémon 💀
W taste in pokemon
I think Ash’s Lucario is now S tier due to bond phenomenon and the giant aura sphere since they’re connecting together like he did with Greninja.
He was also able to one shot Raihan’s Duraladon without mega evolving which is a big win in my book
@@dyloncade6292 did more episodes come out or are y’all watching sub?
@@fetus4601 yes
@@fetus4601 sub
when he use kamehameha that over
Infernape should have a lot more credit for its battle against Paul. This Pokemon managed to survive 2 recoils, poison, and powerful hits such as double edge and thunder while taking out HALF of his team. Mind you, this Pokemon is fast and hard-hitting but fragile. So if you want some proof of how powerful this Pokemon is, there you go.
Also ngl Infernape may have lost against moltres but that's an airborn legendary if it was a legendary on the ground like say Entei then he would've done much better even without blaze
@@LegendaryCaptain I mean it was a super effective air slash and it didn't get knocked out FROM A MOLTRES
It carried the paul battle by beating three pokemon and it would’ve beat moltres if Gary didn’t step in
@@UmbraStarWolf It would make sense if it beat zapdos or articuno but moltres resists all its attacks.
@@UmbraStarWolf yeah at least Buizel, Pikachu, and Gliscor bad their moments unlike Gary where Tauros, Bayleaf and Muk accomplish absolutely nothing so I say Charizard carried the Gary battle SLIGHTLY more
I'm watching this for the first time after coming across it by chance on Oct 16th 2022. Exactly 1 year after it got uploaded. Happy Birthday. Loved the video.
Same XD
I agree with all of these to be honest man good job you did great on this
I think calling his Pikachu a glass cannon is a little strong. I'm always surprised at his toughness and even though yes he can get taken down with enough force it usually takes a lot for Pikachu to stay down. He wouldn't be Ash's ace if he couldn't take a good amount of punishment and went down in one or two hits.
yeah Regice it took quite a beating but still stood it's ground and won
@@LegendaryCaptain he technically One Shot that Regice. It JUST used Rest when Pikachu hit it with Volt Tackle
He did Beat Half of Alains Team, and Managed to Weaken as Non Mega Evolved Zard so i can see what you Mean
@@rakhimitra2193 not to mention that 2 of those were pseudo-legendaries so that makes it even more impressive.
You see, Ash's Pikachu's probably has a second Ability aside from Static. I think it is Regenerator 😂 Everytime he switches out and in Pikachu, it seems like a portion of its HP was back 😂
The fact that lucario and dragonite are close enough to be in top 5 and journeys doesn't even finish shows that how much potential and strength his team has
@@mylightb4sunrise611 tbh everyone in anime has plot armour in some point
Only Dragonite and Lucario are the good ones. Rest leave much to b desired
@@eljordinio7647 honestly speaking though In anime we know what Pikachu can do. Gengar and dracovish has so much potential too
@@ajoymurmu126 yet one of them has failed to live up to it
@@eljordinio7647 yah I agreed As I say he has 3 Pokemon that are incredibly strong And rest has so much potential Journeys isn't finished yet though
Don't forget that Charizard went toe-to-toe against Entei. An Entei with a huge stat boost due to a child with godly powers making it stronger and constantly interfering with the fight. Charizard still lost but the fact he went up against a legendary and only lost cuz God interfered is proof enough of his power.
i would really like to see you make a video on YOUR pokemon journey, all the pokemon you would capture and all the regions, i have a feeling that it would be so cool!
RIP Mr Mime, but seriously - I’m pretty much in agreement with all of this, very well considered and nuanced.
Mime is S tier for me 🤚🏻
Mimey is probably sits in D or C. He's had like 2 battles and only one of them was from a respectable opponent. He's impressive but would need more battles to bump it's placement up.
@@castform7618 I'd say at least A tier because it suffered no damage against a fully evolved hariama. Mimey is no joke. PS: yes, I know that mimey has a 4x resistance to fighting but srsly, look at Mr mimes base stat.
@@Zyenide Eh, I put it as the same calibur of Primeape's P1 Grandprix victories. Hodge did seem like a good trainer but still kind of a slightly above average one. I'm not really sure if Mimey's champion level. I'd say middle of C to bottom of B.
I think Mr Mime is technically Ash's Mom Pokemon, and she lends it to Ash

I decided to learn about Pokemon today, and I binged like ten vids about the lore and show. This vid was by VERY far the best vid on explaining why mons are strong, weak, so so etc.
Love the way you talk with swag style. So for that you deserve a subscribe for being yourself. 🙃
I know Pikachu is insanely OP in the show, but I'm glad you made him number one. He IS Ash's strongest mon, even if it IS completely unrealistic in the actual universe lol In the Anime, it's clearly Pikachu.
If ash used that z move on leons charizard in a 1 v 1 I'm sorry leon loses his undefeated role
10 mil Volt thunderbolt can't miss and it also metagross may have dodged some of it but still couldn't so yeah its basically impossible to counter 10 mil Volt thunderbolt, ashs pikachu is universally the most powerful pokemon in the anime if it uses z move
Your partner is the strongest than any other else in your team.
@@coreysmithson you’re forgetting the creation trio and arceus
@@rixyz7013 he can beat palkia but i don't know about giratina Dialga and Arceus will wreck him out
Snorlax is so powerful, it NEVER lose a fight without defeating an enemy or two first so probably he should be a bit higher tier.
I always felt like he should be in S too and a lot of his wins were at a disadvantage like TWO fighting types from a frontier brain
Difficulty level of the opponent also matters. Snorlax didn't always takedown a legendary before going down. Sure he took some strong Pokemons but not legendaries.
@@Warlord_Megatron yeah, if legendaries r the case there should be no pokemon other than pikachu and charizard in the s tier
@@charston1006 and Sceptile
@@Warlord_Megatron by your logic, greninja don't deserve to be second strongest of ash's because he never fight a legendary and noivern should be in top 5 because he almost beat a zapdos
It's crazy to come back to this video now after Ash became the Pokemon Master. Pikachu is still deserved at the top spot - even more so since it has the capability to do Gigantamax, and it's Z-Move is still near impossible to defend unless it's countered by a Gigantamax move (and even then, the clash of two such moves nearly doomed the Galar region and required a Legendary Pokemon to come and deal with it.) Also wouldn't mind seeing Lucario get moved up to S-Tier now, considering it trained for a short time with Ash's Greninja to work on it's Aura bond with Ash and was capable of doing a Daimax Aura Sphere outside of actually being Dynamaxed (or even Mega Evolved, though it's obviously easier in Mega Evo form). One of the best episodes was when Ash went back to Professor Oak's to train with his Masters Team with his old Pokemon - with the entire team learning new tricks from the training. I just wish Ash had actually considered switching some of his team for others, though some weren't available (such as his Greninja which is still at the forest dealing with the aftermath of XYZ.)
He definitely shouldve mix n matched members like he did in Sinnoh, yeah. At least against Steven and Cynthia, obviously the main team would all go aganist Leon
Nice video u earned my sub❤️
*"Pikachu's a glass cannon."* - Lumiose Trainer Zac
In my opinion, Ash Greninja is arguably the best Pokémon ever introduced in the series, the amount of hype from its first encounter is just insane!
He’s one of my favorite Pokémon’s but I mean he is pretty overrated. Ash’s chinchar deserves hype too. Like didn’t Paul abandon him too？

Zac we really need an updated version of ranking every ash's Mon especially now that ash is a champion and the older mons got some screentime
Interestingly Ash's Charizard never uses any hacks, he just squares up. Imagine if it activates it's Blaze or Mega evolves (X) And while you didn't include movies. Ash was pretty confident that it could take out Entei and at least don damage against the strongest pokemon Mewtwo. At some point the writers might just give him something else busted to put it on top.
They didn't teach no gimmicks in the Charicific Valley. Only thing they taught was the ancient art of throwing hands.
Charizard only knows how to throw hands lmao He was getting his 1s in at the valley, can’t be using no gimmicks to win or else all the other Charizards gonna make fun of you lol
Charizard is a pure beast. He needs that mega to become next level
That charizard has a class of its own. Greatest charizard with no gimmicks etc. Just pure heart.
Charizard is literally faster than the speed of sound and defeated a wild articuno in 3 hits
25:41 Satoshi Gekkouga That’s never gonna get old
The way he says it is straight up epic
I know right.
I am just happy to see this list. ❤
Many things changed 😂dragonite and alans charizard totally nerfed , kamon definitely in s tier and pikachu not legendary but God tier
I would love to see a tournament where Ash goes in with a team consisting of what the writers considers his canonically strongest Pokémon from all of the series. What would it consist off by the writer’s own takes? And how powerful would it be?
Even I want that, and I want him to fight no-one other than Tobais who basically destroyed him and every other trainer. I want to see a match between both of them with their full power.
The interesting thing about that to me is that Ash is shown he's smart enough to also consider balance. So maybe he'll notice there's a lot of overlap between Charizard and Infernape, and so sub out the Charizard for a weaker, but tankier Dragonite.

@PikaJaws what world do you live in where Ash’s Pikachu is overlooked? It’s the most overrated Pokémon in the entire anime.
10:07 I actually totally believe this. I also think this is why Ash doesn't have a lot of Psychic or Ghost types. Look back on Gengar vs. Raichu. Gengar straight up goes intangable when Raichu swipes it's tail and when Psychic hits Raichu (or anyone for that matter) moving just isn't an option anymore and Gengar can do whatever it wants with them. Psychic is an absolutely BROKEN move in the anime which is why the writers only allow to be used on another Pokemon every once in a while and usually leave it for moving objects. Cause if Psychic could be used multiple times, the battle would go to the Psychic user no doubt. Thus, Ash hasn't had a Psychic type for generations and Psychic goes used in battle like once.
Which begs the question y this Gengar has proven mostly pathetic since that win against Raichu
@@eljordinio7647 Hey, El Jordinio, I was actually disappointed when Ash’s Old pokemon from Kanto to Kalos didn’t return in the Alola League.
Making Ash’s Old Pokémon from Kanto to Kalos return in the Alola League could also mean they could use Z moves which is mainly why I wanted thes pokemon to return in Alola League.
I feel it deserves a spot above torterra and naganadel tho, But ig he'll get when the series comes to a close

You also have to take into account that most of Darkrai's damage was healed before it went up against Sceptile and Alain's Charizard had already taken 2 super effective thunderbolts from Pikachu before battling Greninja.
Nope! Only one thunder bolt and after it alain mega evolve his charizard which increase pokemon powers
I just checked it and Charizard did take two thunderbolts from Pikachu. Also, Sceptile had no power-up, but Greninja did. Seems to me Sceptile’s stronger. Honestly this tier list makes me so mad that Ash didn’t use Charizard, Infernape, and Sceptile in the Kalos league! That team definitely would’ve won against Alain, maybe even Cynthia.

Part of me wonders if Ash will ever switch his Pokémon around with the ones he has at oaks more. Would love to see him train with some of his older Pokémon again and improve/evolve some of them. It would also make some battles more unpredictable at times.

Your video quality is so strong and I’m so happy to see the recent ones are blowing up!!
Bro I clicked on your profile thinking “There’s no excuse if you’re not black😂” Come on bro, the name and the pfp I find it Funny af tho keep it up
Happy birthday my guy🤘
I wonder how much stronger Ash's pokemon would be if he used them to their full potential. Gible is very strong, but imagine if Ash evolved it all the way to Garchomp. And Torkoal is one of my favorite pokemon, and I'm glad it got as high as it did! I personally think it's a fairly underrated pokemon!
Lost to a tropius,hariyama,steelix,n manectric by thunder wave that only paralyzes ur opponent not damage
Glad you put respect on the emotional fire turtle's name! No joke, Torkoal vs. Registeel is one of my FAVORITE battles in the anime. I don't really count Sceptile vs. Regirock at Ash's FIRST battle with Brandon because that was a "match" to help Ash get the spirit of that evil king of Pokelantis or whatever the heck it was. I know Brandon was saying a few times in the battle that Ash's confidence was too great, but nah I think Ash kept his cool and put on one of the finest battles showing the connection between himself and his Pokemon on full display! That Heat Wave/Sandstorm cyclone was epic! *Always wondered how Torkoal was capable of leaping off the ground at great heights like he did to enter the TOP OF THE CYCLONE to land a Body Slam on Registeel, but couldn't stand on its hind legs to kick a soccer ball...
Torkoal was a hit or miss pokemon. His battle with Registeel was pretty lit...it's a shame he couldn't put up the same fight against Tobias's Darkrai, they did him pretty dirty like that.
If torkoal just pulled out the win here he would have redeemed himself in a lot of fans' eyes. Doesn't help that in the next fight against a legendary, he gets completely wrecked without landing a hit
@@eljordinio7647 Yeah exactly...especially considering, both Heracross and Gibble put up a much better fight (actually landing a solid hit each and managing to exchange and dodge blows).
@@IamCanadian3333 they get some credit, but in the end, Sceptile scored the kill
@@eljordinio7647 Yes absolutely. Sceptile deserves praise for that. Also keep in mind, Darkrai had pulled off two Dream Eaters which would have recovered some of the damage it took.
Happy Birthday, Zactoshi!!! And Even if that Dancing Croc Totodile is the weakest link of Ash’s Team, I still love him 🐊❤️❤️🎂🎉🎉🎂🥳🥳
How do you even know Zac’s birthday? Did he ever tell us?
@@pokemonjourneysfan5925 you gotta see some community posts mate
@@krishnakapadia146 breh i didnt see- HBD ZAC
I personally think a pokémon with a higher win rate than another and having the same number of battles is better than the other pokémon.
Also, Why on earth did many of Ash’s old pokémon not return in the Kalos or Alola League? In the Kalos, League some of Ash’s pokémon could have mega Evolved such as Heracross, Sceptile… For the Alola League, some of the pokémon could have learned Z-moves like Lumiose Traine Zac predicted in the Alola League!! Sadly none of this happened!!! Why pokémon creators!? Why?
21:48 This aged well.
Happy early birthday to you man
Happy Birthday to you and keep it up with the fantastic long-form videos! (I know how crazy the longboys are to make lol )
Yoo....big faan
Pikachu losing to Trip's Snivey was plot armor. They wanted Ash's new rival to win. So they gave it a move that it wouldn't be able to have at that point.
@S W nope, I checked the egg moves from a few different sights. It would not have that as an egg move.
@@austinmccormick8952 its the anime, not the game. Stop comparing them so much
@@thenexus7343 even in the anime, that snivey wouldn't be capable of that move at that time. They just wanted to have the next Paul(except not entirely)
@Roger Loe and to make matters worse, he already was insulting Kanto
@Roger Loe Yeah, you just get an intitled prick that doesn't have any real personality(even though that's basically Gary, but at least he's not copying any 1(in Pokémon at least)
I love watching this after the ending
To update this, Sir fetch'd has finally moved up on the A tier to go head to head against Drasna's Mega Altaria and Cynthia's Garchomp but unfortunately fell but still, Sir Fetch'd did a huge blow against Garchomp
Or maybe just neutrally strong cuz thanks to dragonite
Dragonite stays A while Lucario is now S. Dragonite was done a bit dirty against Cynthia's Spiritomb but Lucario straight up ate Dragon Claw and Managed to beat Garchomp
But things that people forget or choose to ignore about Charizard for obvious reasons. 1. Most of the losses was due to Ash's inexperience a lot of his older pokemon could be included here. 2. Since the battle against Articuno always comes up. It was frontier brain using Articuno not just Articuno on it's own. 3. No ability to boost power, no mega evolution, no battle bond to make it special, and no op Z move. Just the power it gained training. That's why it still the boss to this day.
Yes, bro. Charizard is op. He just needs that mega to become unstoppable. I would love for it to beat Alain's Charizard
Exactly.He is an old school beast with no powerups.
Charizard definitely the real OG. Respect!!!
Greninja has the bond that’s why he’s ahead you can’t just take it away and say Charizard is better because he doesn’t have the bond that’s now how it works
@@clarenceblaze8610 the point is if charizard gets a mega, he will be even better than battle bond greninja, as he is already such a powerhouse without mega
What makes Alain's Charizard broken is that he learned thunder punch and replaced it with steel wing. In the XYZ series.
Trips snivy can beat alains charizard
@@zerodycm2799 such a dumb comment
@@teamvortx7016 what do you mean by 'dumb' ? He's right
Steel < fairy, ice, rock Electric < water Steel wing is a better move overall
@@dotexe8870 charizard isn’t weak against ice or fairy and can hit both with fire type attacks. So it’s basically water vs rock.
HAPPY birthday mate
Watching on oct 17th 🥲 happy late birthday man
Ash: Is that everyone? Zac: What, you wanted more?
Honestly after the latest episode, I'd say Ash's Greninja could give the #1 spot a run for it's money. That frog does not look like it's playing around anymore.
That's for sure 😴 undisputed #1
Nah charizard pikachu infernape stronger
@@gabrieldeanda6587 no chance he almost be at mega evolved charizard so he'll destroy ashes and pikachu got clapped by level 5 snivy
@@proto_7675 ashes charizard is raw hard work no gimmicks. Trained for long time. Greninja is still new. Pikachu has the most experience and beat legendaries. They’re def stronger
@@gabrieldeanda6587 pikachu also lost to a snivy and greninja could be a legendary just like this youtuber said also greninja is also just straight hard work he never had friends due to being a outcast for wanting to get strong. Greninja would easily win and the type advantage
Ashes Infernape has influenced me so much that it became my favorite. And seeing it tear apart pauls team was satisfying as possible
I get it but if u knew what I mean I don't rly like a sad backstory to be evidence of a mon's strength take sceptile for example it had no backstory n became an ace alone from a treeko
I love Unfezant lmao. Pidove is my favorite regional bird Pokémon and Unfezant just suffered not getting enough Screen time. It took too long to evolve because it got no screen time but at the same time it evolved to early for the lack of screen time ad a Pidove. It proved its capabilities as a Tranquill but was very underused. As an Unfezant it had some decent fights, a lot more screen time, and also best Skyla’s Unfezant which was pleasant to see and Swana which was her ace.
Finally,someone mentioned how strong Alain is And not how 'ash should have won,it was the worst part about xyz' like no one thinks of how crazy broken Alain is
Yeah. Besides Siebold's Blastoise who was the only one to beat Charizard onscreen, greninja stood a far better chance against charizard than any other opponent at the league.
Right poeple being angry at Tobias makes sense but Alain
@@teamvortx7016 at least ash vs Alain was a more even fight and both sides were on equal footing, unlike Tobias who ash never stood a chance at beating
Yep hate those ashtards
Alain lost to Leon Leon lost to Lance Lance lost to Blue Blue lost to Red Red lost to ash
Him: Ash's Tarous His 30 tarous :Alright boys which one of us he talking about
Nobody: The spelling in this comment: aight ima head out
Number 17, obviously
im so excited for ash vs leon bc im assuming its gunna be his most powerful team vs leon and not that he would use the top 6 pokemon, but that hes gunna use all the little things he has, hes gunna Gmax gengar, hes gunna use pikachu's z move, hes gunna mega evolve lucario, and hopefull (please please please please please) hes gunna battle bond with greninja
Just watched this after watching Ash in the Masters Tournament...Sirfetch'd really watched this tier list and took it personally
Whenever Zac has a chance to utter: "SATOSHI GEKKOUGA", he takes it. Also: "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
Its ironic that charizard and infernape are closet to each other just like in the win rate video(charizard has 72% abd infernape has 73%)
That's actually the opposite of ironic
@@moaa042 still really funny how close they are regardless
Tbf charizard has battled way more than infernape
@@Saif-jj6cj not true. Go back to the win rate video, they're quite close
@@moaa042 oops
Birthday twin G 🤟🏽
Lmao subscribed 🤣great vid
23:02 actually Darkrai used dream eater to heal damage, so technically he was at (least closed to) full health. So this feat is kinda equivalent to a one shoting a legendary
Plus leaf blade has a high crit chance so if Sceptile scored at least one crit, or two, he pretty much knocked it out with little effort
true, I personally think Sceptile is stronger than Ash's Charizard for that
To be fairly it was never stated if Darkrai actually healed from it. The Anime is pretty wonky when it comes to game logic.
@@heavydonkeykong5190 dream eater is a move that heals so it more than likely did
@@eljordinio7647 I know that, I'm just saying Darkrai was never shown healing and nobody ever pointed it out in the battle, so the anime might've gotten goofy with it again.
A birthday special banger 👀💙😌❤️
Charizard in S tier?
Happy late birthday mate🎉🎉🎉
Nice!
this video reminded me of how powerfull Ash's pikachu is. Sometimes i just forget how strong our boi is.
Wow, finally a tierlist I can fully agree with.
Yeah. 99%
Yeah i also completely agree with it.
its almost perfect, for me dragonite should be top 4:)
The fact that only pikachu made it to the final team, when he could dominate soooo damn hard with his actual ace team and would feel like an equal challenge to leons team.
This video is 2 years old today. Happy birthday Zac
Damn man, I really appreciate you making this video bro, I know that it definitely not easy to make, there’s a lot of details and information you have to put in there to make it as accurate as possible, ❤️🙏🔥
When you take into account all the regional gimmicks from Kalos going forward, Z-moves are without a doubt the most universal out of them provided Ash has the crystals for them. Only a select few are capable of Mega Evolution provided they have the stones, and if certain pokemon on the list evolve: Greninja with Battle Bond, Charizard, Sceptile, Lucario, Bulbasaur if it becomes Venusaur, Gengar, Squirtle if it becomes Blastoise, Glalie, Gible if it becomes Garchomp, Heracross, and Pidgeot. As of this point, only Pikachu and maybe Gengar can access Gigantamax. And really, Gengar is the only one capable of all three, which might make it a nasty contender if Ash ever gets his hands on a Gengarite.
Most of Ash's NFE pokemon are NFE for a reason tho. It's like saying " imagine Pikachu as a Raichu" they are at their strongest in the form they prefer.
@@Ecl1ps0_ I know from a Japanese sub clip that at some point Gengar gets the Max Soup from Allister, but the jury's out on the rest.
I’m happy I have an Pikachu
Gotta get a pair of the old fashioned 3d glasses with the red and blue lenses to watch the clips in this video lol
Nice! I was holding my breath on where you will put Ash Greninja. But I am happy with how you rate it. Ash Pikachu is indeed the strongest . It did so well against Leon's Charizard.
