Fun fact, Volo says Boo when you run into him, he had the spooky plate all along Also Ghiratina helps Volo try to destroy the world but goes through a character ark. It tries to stop Cyrus from doing the same thing he tried to do so long ago
Volo also teaches the player the Back Strike technique. You know, a "back stab" of sorts
@@ledlebrgr5380 wow good catch!
Giratina is literally the "Call an Ambulance" meme in 1:25:04
Yeah
@@ledlebrgr5380 uhhhhh
Pokemen7: talks and mashes A over lore Me : Infuriated screaming
You button mashed right thru my favorite line! There is something hilarious about Melli calling Cresselia a "pesky flying croissant" 🤣😂
I love that line! I named Cresselia Croissant cause of Melli.
As long as there's another Legends game, I don't mind waiting for however long it takes. I loved this game So Much!!!
Yes
I hope Jotho is the next. It is connected with Sinoh and has good lore and an amazing map
@@biljancanin A Johto of old predating the destruction of Lugia's Tower would be so sick! Although I would like to see a Kalos one next. The life/death/ecosystem themes would be interesting to explore now that we're fresh off an adventure relating to the God of creation.
@@LagrimaArdiente Ho-Oh reviving aka making the dogs is what came to my mind immediately when i thought about what they will make as the next Legends game. Kalos does have a good lore with the Pokemon war, Yveltal and Xerneras, but so does Unova with Kyurem. I still would like to see Jotho 1st because of the connection to Sinoh tough the ruins. The lore is good in almost all the regions.
@@biljancanin I would love to see a Legends of Unova game. We can actually see what the original form of Kyurem is actually like.
It’s not as fun watching someone fight giratina aware of its next form
I was so bummed they cut his reaction to it transforming out of the video! That's been my favorite part of these vids, watching someone's reaction when they realize they have to fight Giratina _again_
Honestly though, the main reason I disliked the video. When they know it’s coming it just makes this whole battle boring
Yeah, though maybe he just got spoiled since he likes Pokemon and got a notification of it.
honestly his reaction sucked bro
@@seishinaozora5839 this happened I clicked on garatina reaction video and the moment I saw him revive I regretted clicking the video lmao I ended up speeding through the game to get to that part and still almost ended up losing knowing he was going to revive
It took me several times battling Volo to realize he has Cynthia's Platinum team (except Arcanine instead of Milotic).
Heatran, four legged creature that lives in magma/lava but can walk on land Frog, four legged creature that lives in water but can walk on land Coincidence? I THINK NOT!
Heatran = Magma Froggo
OK THAT MEANS HEATRANS A FROG HMMM HEATOG
It’s really surprising that they finished the villain’s arc in the postgame, this game was a blast to play through!
I would argue that there is more strategy than any other games and legends arceus simply because you have to think about using strong style and agile style moves
Yea, it's way better than getting your pokemon to hold an item to make it stronger, and the only way that I know for your pokemon to get stronger is by using grit.
In terms of a single player experience I agree. However, PVP strategy is incredibly diverse and complex that I doubt this would ever be a suitable replacement as it is right now. Maybe after quite a few tweaks, but right now fair, strategic PVP in Legends would be impossible.
I agree, a new battle system means one has to adapt and come up with new strategies. I run Lucario with Bullet punch and Mach Punch just for the fact that I can attack 4-6 times before the opponent with the way the action bar works
Just literally caught a shiny alpha while watching this, because every time I seem to watch a VOD or a stream I just find one LOL.
I was listening to the previous one and caught a shiny alpha gabite, what sorcery is this??
While not an alpha I did catch a shiny basculin
Just started watching, just want to say i am SO HAPPY that you did this, this is my favorite thing to react to as far as PLA gameplay goes. I would do anything to be able to fight this battle again, it was such a cool battle. Since you basically have to fight a team of 8, which i believe is unprecedented in pokemon history. Like, there's the elite 4 and champion in every game, but you get to heal in between battles as long as you have the potions and such to do so. This is a 6-pokemon team immediately followed by a 2-stage pokemon, so you just have to be good, even being over leveled, you can have difficulty with it and i love it. The only healing you can do is in battle, having to take up a turn to do so. I remember alot of people saying that Cynthia in BDSP was difficult, i think PLA arguably made the hardest boss fight to date, and made it look cool while they're at it.
John: Now that we got the plate we can go and get the prize which is Ad: Ghirardelli chocolate squares. The best chocolate for baking. John: a cake someone is going to make me a cake
RIP no reaction on the surprise third phase :(
Cause he overleveled his team and made it easy -_-
@@lopunnyplayzthepinkgang3025, no, he knew the origin forme was coming, that’s why, but even then he still lost with his overleveled team.
I find the critique of the battling system being 'There's no strategy' to be bogus baloney from people who don't care to learn the basics of the games new combat systems. I have seen several Poketubers running Legendary's on their team and then dying. The game is more difficult yes and pokemon being switched in get to hit you. However you should also recognize that you can do the same. You need to run a speedster and a tank of some kind. You should also interact with the Effort Levels system considering its the simplest form to date and is designed specifically to be used during singleplayer. I haven't seen the full video however I've seen other KZheadrs who haven't even taught all their pokemon their agile/strong style for their moves. Volo is a punishing fight however it is by no means unfair. The game gives you the tools needed to handle it.
Yeah I’ve seen everyone using legendaries like they are the best things available not considering things like moveset and typing
it’s really not that hard, i wrecked his team and only had 3 pokemon faint. the ev system, amongst other things, was vital to that. plan and it’ll go just fine.
Aw, you went into this knowing that Giratina has a second phase… The reaction would have been sweet.
Giratina says bishan because it’s an anagram of banish
I’m kinda annoyed that you already knew about the forme change in the battle with giratina because I was so excited to see your reaction
I mean... It's not new? Like at all haha it's not really shocking. Being annoyed at something outta your control is just added stress, and it's not his fault he's a pokemon fan, he literally has it in his name
If he had been noticing the music he would’ve got that Volo is Cynthia’s ancestor
@@WeirdnessMaster I’m referring to having to beat giratina twice in that specific battle not the fact that giratina has two forms as far as I know there was no hint to it and he talked about looking up the battle to prepare for it so he knew he had to beat giratina twice
@@WeirdnessMaster and I’m not too upset about it I’m just like dang wish I would’ve gotten t to see his reaction to it because he had tried to stay away from spoilers for most of the game
@@Nick-lt2yq again, I don't think it's something too shocking considering thr forms, but again that's just me.
“New soap who dis?” is officially my new favourite PM7 quote
John: My team is ridiculously overpowered! Meanwhile my team being level 80-ish before beating Electrode 😃
I am about to take on Electrode as of this post and my team are nearly level 65, but I was a 7th Star Recruit with level 30 pokemon before taking on Lilligant.
Dang I beat arceus with level 70 pokemon and you're at Electrode? Well yeah your comment was posted 12 days ago but I still mentioned it anyway 😅
@@delighyt I wanted to take my time with this game and as it turns out, when the player focuses on things like number of pokemon caught, number of pokemon caught without being seen, number of times defeated, number of times defeated by a specific move ect if you just want to get to 10, you be surprised how quickly your pokemon and rank will level up if you focus on just the first 2 maps based on the number of pokemon in them.
For someone that makes his own Fanmade team and history, you sure don't take time to digest this one
When you talk to Irida or Adaman if you're in the post game, challenge them to a battle and you'll get the items to change Palkia and Dialga to their origin formes.(Adaman for Dialga , Irida for Palkia)
If there's another legends game (which I hope there is) I think the canidates would be Unova, Alola, and Johto. My bet is on Unova, bc of the amount of foreshadowing and stuff. Like idk why they would put Ingo the train guy here and not elaborate, if it wasn't a hint to something in the future.
And it might come with gen10 and Gen5 remakes
There are also paintings of what seem to be ancestors of alder and ghetsis in a house in the diamond settlement, I would be surprised if they didn’t do something with gen 5 in the near future
Not to mention the Forces of Nature were also from Gen 5 too
It’d be cool if we got the fused version of reshiram and zekrom or even shadow lugia in another legends game
Who knew Volo was secretly link from zelda
Man Really wanted to be informed that there was going to be the Jawl opening first 6vs8 Pokemon Battle ever
I like these long videos to listen to while I'm playing games. Love your content
As far as gameplay and game mechanics go, this should DEFINITELY be the standard for any and all future titles!
I wish they’d kept these same over-world catching and stealth mechanics for Scarlet and Violet. I’m just praying they do more with this Legends series and stick with this formula. I was soooo happy to get a more catch-centered game than battle-centric. I’m loving this whole stealth thing and I hope they do even more with it in the next one… and that there even is a nest one.
I'm still upset John didn't react to Cynthia's theme. Not even a little. I found that the speed of the Pokemon determines whether or not a switch in can attack in this game. It's not a bad mechanic it's just one that for the most part works against you.
I am so glad to see at least one youtuber do the post game! I wanted to see reactions so much! :D So thank you for doing this!
i dont consider this postgame, as the game is arceus and starts with "catch all pokemon, thisa is just maingame, that palkia/dialga was just midgame credits
@@ElysiaWhitemoonOmega you are right, but the credits rolled to early...
31:30 John suddenly question his existance
Says the battling isn’t challenging Gand then follows it with if I wasn’t over leveled this would be pretty challenging Also this makes me feel better about using lvl: 76 Pokémon and only needing one revive
“I HAVE AN OP TEAM, I WILL DEFEAT YOU VOLO” lol
Now that I finally finished the post-game, I can watch this now! And speaking of shiny yanma, I've found two during my Perfect Pokédex Quest! Although that's not surprising. I see so many spawns trying to perfect every entry, so I have a stupid number of them. But I certainly agree, shiny yanma is very pretty!
In a french accent Regigigas is saying Zu-Zu
The reason you are missing thunder wave so much is agile style moves have lowered accuracy and strong style moves have increased accuracy but since you haven't used strong style because you haven't noticed this you keep missing.
Agile style has the same accuracy as regular but lowered power and duration. Strong style has increased accuracy, power and duration
Giving Giratina that superish boss status. My boi getting all that love yeehaw
Been waiting for this
My only sneasler is shiny, It looks way better that way. Sticky globs are way better than mud or snowballs. Loving all the content! Keep it up man, cant wait to see what's next
As someone who sits here and listens to you ramble for two hours, we appreciate the heck out of you
I did the fight quite underleveled. It took me many many tries and very thought out strategies to figure it out.
Hyped for next episode
Well I mean the other reason we can’t throw Volo off the mountain is because Cynthia still needs to exist.
Thx for the tumbnail with a huge spoiler in it, wasn't even searching for a letsplay
1:05:09 "It is me and my trusty Volo-man." Oh, you poor naive fool. I was once like you. Also, I was kinda bummed to see you go into this fight overleveled, but then I wasn't bummed, anymore. =P
Just caught a shiny swinub named it swinubert
I thankfully had a bunch of max revives and full restores on hand because i was also not expecting basically three battles back to back lol
heals up before going to jubilife, where you are always automatically healed just by being there
i called my decidueye sensei owl
Seeing as you struggled and with your level of Pokémon, you can imagine how I might've felt going into this with two low 60s, mostly 70s Pokémon and a really tanky level 90 Garchomp. I was determined and sat doing this for so long and had to be so so so strategic about the whole fight and I'm so proud that I managed to do it. But my god was it time consuming...
I spent so so much time filling and perfecting my dex, exploring and resourcing, I was over leveled the whole time. But the HARDEST part of this game for me was the noble Pokémon and the Arceus fight where it was more about my character dodging and throwing balms as opposed to battling with Pokémon. I avoided the noble battles for so long because they felt like a chore. Though I’m always happy to see a difficulty spike in a Pokémon game. But I was so over leveled that the Pokémon battles weren’t really strategic like yours was and I feel like I may have missed out a little. Maybe that’s the downside of open world games. Im thinking of doing one more playthrough before getting Scarlet/Violet. In saying all of that, this is by far mt favorite Pokémon game and one of my top 3 to 5 games ever. I loved this and there were so many things that I think were so amazing because I went in blind and I did them for the first time and they won’t be the same now that I know how it all goes.
@@SwedePotato314 What you described is exactly what ALWAYS happens to me in every Pokémon game; I'm obsessed with perfecting the dex, but through all the random Pokémon and everything you run into, you just gain so much EXP that you're incredibly over-levelled by the end. Arceus was the first game where that didn't happen because you could just kind of hide and snipe catch them from afar and ignore the ones you weren't bothered with. Plus you could actually HEAR if a shiny was around and not have to directly encounter them and then kill them (which would give you exp) so it was just easier. I actually prefer that style of play to traditional encounters personally because it's very tedious, and especially when at the start I tend to focus mainly on just catching all Pokémon types ONCE very quickly (which makes my brain happy) before I perfect the dex entry. But yeah all of those factors made it so that I was a lot lower levelled, and for the first time ever I felt like I actually struggled a bit, and then that last battle with Volo my god... It really is worth doing again for the satisfaction of the hard work though so I highly recommend doing it when you're bothered
There is a very good reason you thought Dark Pulse could flinch. In every other game, it can.
John you are one of the few people who I watched do this that actually remembered Giratina had another form, everyone seems to forgor
That wasn't the issue, it's not that we didn't know Giratina had another form. We didn't realize that this was going to be 8 vs 6 Pokemon battle with no way to heal in between. That has never happened in any official game until now. We didn't know Giratina was going to magically get a max revive in its origin form. I don't think John would've known, he seems like the moment was spoiled for him, this is kind of what happens when people don't play the post game immediately, they are more likely to be spoiled.
did it hurt anyone else that john after the creselia battle teleported all the way down even though he was at a camp
This fight was so hard for me, only took an actual good team for me to do it. When I got to origin forme giratina my dialga fainted after getting it to VERY little health, like 1hp or something. But my absolute unit of a Decidueye defeated giratina. It was that hard.
Personally I love the battle system it makes it harder
Congratulations your flute evolved into a ocarina!
Im not going to miss another thunder wave - John
We need to see jack fight Volo we need to convince him!!! Does jack know Volo is evil 😂
Idk why but when he made that random noise when the portal opened I thought he was mimicking Grunty Boy
my worst nightmare in this game was the manaphy and phiones research, kept losing my pokemon cause they would attack me 6 times in a row constantly
This guy didn’t even notice that this is Cynthia’s music and team
PM7@start: This Volo guy, I like the cut of his jib! AfterGiratina: We should keep an eye on him, he seems a little off.
I'm definitely here for the rambling.
before seeing the Cogita I made pokedolls to sell with all my wood....
just that into
Bro didn’t even notice Cynthia’s theme
Don’t ask why I’m watching this in 2024
Prosafia level thumbnail right there
I got the PM7 guarantee for finding Shinys . Found 2 Alphas and 3 normal in the span of this video xD
PM7 went from 😁to👀😅
When I first saw teasers, and early game play I wished i could ride rapidash, or at least they could walk with u. Not just stand their looking awesome. Them sitting down or falling asleep was so cute. Nothing like running for ur life from some crazied alphas and I throw out my golem to smash them back to sanity and hes sleeping XD.
Arrogance takes down the mighty. Honestly you were overprepared - you had a bunch of level 80s and had type advantages. Got greedy by not wanting to use healing items. Loss was deserved and humility was earned tbh. Still enjoyable video
I was the same on sticky globs, didn't see the need. I was so wrong. For aggressive Pokémon, like those sneasels, they're stupidly helpful. One sticky glob stuns, and you can just walk behind it with a gigaton ball and get a near guaranteed capture. Those sneasel would have been lining themselves up to be caught if you'd had them!
Right as John beat Giratina I found a shiny frog! (Croagunk)
Same 👁👄👁
owlton john name is hilarious
So Volvo, before I beat you, where you get those clothes from? lol
You don't need to heal before you return home it auto heals when you return
This game is close to perfection and this is only nintendo first truly open world pokemon game
Uses hyper potion when he has roost so he actually didn't need to use potions
I'm planning on just using 5 Chansey with an electric move a fighting move and a fairy move, along with an Ovrquill 🐡
I would love a Pokemon Legends Celebi or something like that. I don't think Pokemon Legends Kyurem would be a thing cuz it's not a mythical but maybe in the near future Pokemon Legends Victini?
Imagine they made a Pokemon Legends: Tapu just imagine going around alola without a cutscene every millisecond
That would be amazing
I was so pissed when I found out you have restart the volo battle and giratina again when you lose.
Fun fact: regi still has slow start even when there is supposed to be no abilitys in the game
Can someone answer this for me: Should I use my alpha infernape (fighting fire) or my alpha gallade (psychic fighting) or both
7:11 That’s just every Pokémon game dude
You can buy his clothes in different colors as well.
I found a full odd shiny ponyta unlike John lol
You're right. Volo took my friend three days to beat and he had a team of legendaries. Then again, I beat him second try with a normal team so...
I loved volo so much but he stabbed my back with giratina. He steals my trust, and my demon dragon 😢
bird-bird-bird, bird-bird-bird. wha...?
You need to get all Pokémon to research level 10
I want a Legends Kyurem
Have you ever thought and made the connection that the pose Adaman does kind of looks like Leon’s pose
Everyone did you know that furret is taller than charizard
Did he ever noticed any of the obvious hints that volo is basically this game version of Cynthia or it all flew over his head? (the music, volo's team and even his hair)
It’s me, Asher I have found six shiny. Pokémon one star review, two twist poem, free Cascone for a zillion saw farm Eevee, and six is a. Tonita.
Please do a shiny lock!!! But each pokemon gets 10 lives
He had super overleved Pokémon and could barely handle the last fight. My highest mon was 72 and I don’t even think I used 1 revive. It did take me a couple attempts though.
When I fought cresselia it kept using lunar blessing so I couldn’t paralyze it and I couldn’t get it low it took soooooooooo long
Lol speaking of shiny yanma I just got one yesterday
I wasn't really overlevelled (had level 70's and a 60's garchomp) but after many failed attempts and resetting the save (and getting annoyed with the amount of luck I needed so upping the stats with grit gravel to 6 across the board) I beat volo miraculously with 4 pokemon left (3 at full, garchomp at half taking the first giratina hit) and I didn't need to heal at all. Alpha Garchomp Staraptor Luxray Gardevoir, and Drifblim Hisuian Samurott.
I kinda lost track trying to complete the pokedex and had overleveled most of my pokemon to mid 80's, also used whatever grit I could find to boost my Pokemon's stats. Took 1 time with my team of Hisuian Typhlosion, Alpha Liligant, Sylveon, Luxray, Gyarados and Staraptor to beat Volo.
New phone who dis good reference
