Bruxish is my least favourite as well

“I really like the weed cat” is a powerful closing statement that I 100% agree with.

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.

Can't wait to see Jayden seeing this, making her own list, and throwing Froslass to the deepest pit of hell.

The reasons he has for each pokemon just makes this entire video rewatchable

“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

I was like: “Bruh if scizor doesn’t get atleast a B then I’m writing a 5 Paragraph Essay” Then he put it on Peak Pokémon and now I’m satisfied.

"He's just a little guy.'" is by far one of the most accurate descriptions of a Pokemon I've ever heard.

honestly it’s pretty impressive to take a 7+ hour vod into just 1 hour with this editing. great job alpha!

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 have no idea why, but when you talked about Unown and said "How do I feel about the letter 'Seven'?", it just killed me.

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.

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.

It's amazing how you realize that you know the names of over 700 random strange creatures. I love pokemon.

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.

10:00 "Straight up just a bull" (has a negative connotation) 10:03 "He's just a fish" (has a positive connotation) I love Alpharad's logic.

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.

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

Cool Hisui tier list Alpha, if only I could see it without the video links blocking it.

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.

I’m concerned not just with how people are going to react to this tier list but also the Lucario in the thumbnail

Absol has been and always will be my favorite Pokémon it’s just awesome.

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.

41:22 you have no idea how happy this made me, espurr is my favorite Pokémon and I love when people remember it exists

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.

"if you disagree: make your own list." That is such a power move, jeeeeeeez.

10:38 “Let’s just see what the chat has to say,” accompanied by the Super Paper Mario Underwhere music is simultaneously amazing, yet terrifying

The editing on this (especially "Poli-") is absolutely stellar and keeps this almost impossible to pace video feel like it zips along nicely

The misogyny label when you placed nidoking just made my day. I busted out laughing!

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.

I was watching to see where Absol would be placed. It’s also my favorite Pokémon. I’m glad someone shares the Absol appreciation.

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.

13:36 "Pichu comepletly smash" BASED

Jacob's editing is just unparalleled, nobody else gets me chuckling like he does

I love seeing chat light up with Terry when tengela is brought up, I looked over to see if it was happening and was so happy when it was

as a kid i hated primal groudon cause i thought he had soup in his veins like chunky chicken soup

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.

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 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

The fact you placed Haunter, my fave mon of all time, in the peak mon section made me happy :)

Grovyle still criminally low

I like how a bunch of mons were "better than blastoise" Like that was the middle baseline for that tier lol

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.

Holy, Absol and Sylveon are both my favorite pokemon and my respect for you just went through the roof

Props to the editor (Matt) for getting this under an hour I can imagine how hard that must've been

"Torterra is a friend" That's all i needed to hear, thank you Alpharad, very cool

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”

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 ❤

“I think having kids is cringe.” Honestly never agreed with Jacob more tbh.

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.

Thank you for another great tier list!

58:00 “Duraludon always felt like it should be a pre evolution” Congratulations you’re a prophet.

Alpha: "I want a real life Lotad." Also Alpha at 58:13: "I don't even know who you are."

Glad you've turned this into a video, I probably wasn't gonna watcha 5 hour VOD. Also nice to see sound

Big credit to the editor for keeping this fast pass, exciting but summarises all of them

58:00 "i always feel like it should be a pre-evolution", good news about the dlc!

7:44 Pokemon Challenges must have saved a lot of money, living rent free in Alpha's head for so long!

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 love whenever the moment is referenced at 7:48 , it's always the Jan clip - even on Alpharad's own channel

Came to see someone rank every pokemon, stayed for the fucking hilarious editing. earned a sub this is excellent

Mr Rad, sir. Would you rather: Weed cat becoming bipedal, fire croc becoming fighting type, or water duck staying only water?

Alpharad: *puts Dewott into friend tier* Me: *Visible Happiness*

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 😭

I remember getting a boldore with an everstone from a surprise trade in swsh and Gigarok became part of the team

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!

49:23 I like how 4 of togedemarus points are about his roundness

Jacob has this recurring theme of being extremely harsh to coomers and I can't tell if it's based or cringe.

"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 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

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

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 🤔

Editing this video must have taken FOREVER. Props to you, Jacob (or just the person who edited the video).

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

Making it this fast is a good way for people to lose track of your opinions and not get mad at you! Good job!

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

the music at around 25:00 gave me a flashback to pokemon pinball ruby and sapphire

putting whimsicott on top was the biggest relief ive felt in a while

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.

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.

Im so glad you put my top fav pokemon high on the list :)

Vileplume is great and I think it needs more attention and im glad to see you enjoy it

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.

the incredibly fast pace of jump cuts make watching this video while sleep deprived feel like my mind and body are desynced

Dude. You just instantly brought back memories as a little kid, holding onto unevolved Nidorino and Nidorina cause I thought they were so cool.

you‘re favorite pokemon absol made me respect you bro. since it was introduced i‘m obsessed with absol i love it so much

Lucario is peak pokemon, but because gamefreak doesn't know how to cool it with the constant shoving him into anything pokemon related people tend to hate him for no reason. Lucario is awesome gamefreak just suck at handling anything popular really. If the people like something it doesn't mean they wanna see it EVERY single time you wanna announce something all it does is lose the intrest of people who like set thing.

19:02 “Marshtomp, he looks deranged, and I like that. He just looks like he sh*t his pants and didn’t realize”

Jacob: duraludon should have a pre-evolution 1 year later Game freak: guys meet archaludon the evolution of duraludon

Gotta love the 9-11 reference to tentacruel...especially when I checked the time and it was 9:11am...

15:01 "How do I feel about the letter 7?" -Alpharad 2022

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

22:40 *MY MAN*

23:20 I feel like Spoink for me is one of my favorites specifically and ONLY because of Friendlocke season one’s Borat Spoink. Borat Spoink was a BANGER and you cannot convince me otherwise.

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!

seeing rotom in top tier made me so happy, he's a huge childhood favorite, he was my first shiny card lol

4:38 Ah, thankyou for giving me something to be angry about today, Jacob. I'll be back when we get to Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd. *sharpens knife pre-emptively* EDIT: I'll take the "Alright" on Farfetch'd, appreciate the knighting of Sirfetch'd ... but I will not forgive you for Chesnaught.
