Bro the amount of detail for foreshadowing this animator does is INSANE First Nabiu appears in 5:05 and then he upload the short of him rescuing students in a lot of words This guy is ahead of time or has a lot of lore preparation I'll take any of those options

Pikachu prooves that the power of friendship is the most powerfer thing of all! ... well besides a bird I guess.

Props to Swampert for holding off the fire alliance all on his own

4:20 Skeledirge singing while controlling the spirits for a bit was pretty cool and very pleasing to the eye

How has NO ONE talked about 4:18 AT ALL? Beautiful song, great Pokémon, and just an overall AMAZING moment. Def my favorite bit in this entire video.

Torchic accidentally dying and becoming Skeledirge's new bird was such a creative touch

Hydro pump coming out of Blastoise's head instead of the actual cannons is always funny

Meowscarada blowing up Torterra by tricking it into eating a bomb is something I imagine Meowscarada would absolutely do

3:14 I like how Litten and Sprigatito are just sitting on that Pokémon’s back

I love how Grovyle didn't even get defeated, he just left. It being the Mystery Dungeon Grovyle is a really nice little detail too.

Love the detail of swampert being so freaking op, but being defeated by touching some grass

7:40 “standing here i realize you’re just like me trying to make history”

2:27 the fuegro throat chop into suplex was brutal 😂

I am convinced that the only reason why rillaboom was the one to take out swampert was because Terminal likes the monkey scream sound effect

Love how Grovyle just survives and escapes the battle using a time gear, probably going to the past.

7:16 Basically Ash’s Pikachu

4:54 "Dont you know who I am?" "IM DA JUGGERNAUT, BYEEEETTTCCCHHH!!!!"

“Pikachu toughed it out so you wouldn’t feel sad” is officially one of my favorite bits of animation

I love how Blaziken started moving faster and faster during his fight with Pikachu. Clear nod to speed boost

"WHY WON'T YOU FAINT?!" "Friendship, son."

6:12 WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY SWAMP!?

Massive props to Torterra just standing there and taking a firestorm with nary a scratch. (And Meowscrada who... hid underground I think)

Ngl, seeing Torterra being a chill dad to all the other Grass starters and Swampert absolutely kicking ass put a huge smile to my face, glad to see my two favorite starters so well represented

I’m wheezing laughing at Oshawott gasping at the Charmander death at 0:55. 🤣

Swampert playing a massive role in this warms my heart (also, Pikachu and Eevee just chilling for the first half is so funny)

Swampert being the last bastion against the fire pokémon (and managing to hold them back very well too!) is a massive win for me I'm so proud of my boy

6:55 had me losing it.😭😂

Swampert causing an earthquake, getting counter-earthquaked, and proceeding to hit the island with a tsunami was really hilarious.Also my man deserves some recognition, he was fighting the fire starters alone, if it wasn’t for rilaboom he may have won (he was x4 strong to all the remaining pokes, being also inmune to pikachu’s electric attacks)

I was rooting for Swampert and even though he didn't win, he was a major threat. Him and Blaziken did Hoenn proud.

Speed Boost Blaziken: *I am four parallel universes ahead of you*

I know I'm late but a miss opportunity at 10:14 for a Drax quote "I've mastered the ability of standing so incredibly still, that I become invisible to the eye."

I love how Rillaboom just pulled Swampert out of spite because he was the only non-fire starter left and was clearly about to win.

I love how you incorporated Incineroar's Smash Bros moveset into the actual fight. That animation of him suplexing Primarina was just chef's kiss.

The fact Partner Pikachu could technically 1v1 almost the entire roster and win is a consistently terrifying yet amusing thing to think about.

I never realized how many starters are reptiles. The only trios that didn’t have at least 1 reptile were Alola and Hisui. And Venusaur might be considered a reptile. It has multiple inspirations including a dinosaur but also a frog which is an amphibian. But the “saur” might imply it’s more dino than frog. So if we count it as reptilian and not amphibian, the very first starter trio were all reptiles.

Nothing more terrifying than a Pikachu with a 100% crit rate and unable to take a fatal blow

The exact repeat of Decidueye vs Samurott vs Infernape already had me laughing, but I absolutely lost it when H-Decidueye and H-Samurott showed up immediately afterwards.

My boy Raboot just letting a tree fall on him 😂

Blaziken: "Why won't you DIE?" Pikachu : "Power of friendship son. I tough it out in response to physical trauma."

Ok, Rillaboom suddenly reappearing with the, “OK! Now you die.” was amazing.

Unironically the funniest parts of any TerminalMontage cartoon is when the animation goes so unreasonably hard for literally zero reason. I love it.

I love the incineroar smash reference at 2:32 it made me laugh

8:42 ARE YOU JOKING WITH ME PIKACHU

Rillaboom crawling out of hell itself to drag swampert down with him is the ultimate petty play of the century

The sheer determination on Blaziken's face to beat the power of friendship was amazing lol Also the eevee desperately tryna evolve

7:56 got me laughing so hard

6:01 not hisuian samurot with the blackbeard laugh ZEHAHHAHAH 😭💀

The fact that Grovyle ditches after 3 seconds with a timegear because he has to finish his mission is so in character. 10/10

I could feel Blaziken’s pain the whole time. It’s the whole unstoppable force meets an immovable object debate.

The "Pikachu toughed it out so you wouldn't feel sad" bit had me laughing to tears.

Swampert loafing like a rabbit in sand is the most adorable thing I've seen since looking at my rabbit!

I love the reused scene with the Infernape, Samarroutt, and Decidueye. It was the true sequel we always wanted.

Seeing the partner Pikachu’s “Toughed it out so you wouldn’t feel sad” message come up over and over again had me rolling

I FREAKING LOVE THESES BATTLE ROYALES

I didn't know that 5:26 came from your previous work 😂

The "Pikachu toughed it out so you wouldn't feel sad" over and over again had me on the floor, these battle royales somehow get better and better :)

Pikachu just staying in the air until someone challenges them has so much 'I'm the mascot, I have privilege' energy😂

Where is snivy😢

R. I. P Evee in the background 6:59

Love how Incineroar wanted to join in, but then recalled he's part dark type

I just love that Grovyle bounced immediately. Explorers of the Sky is just a gem in the Pokémon franchise

1:56 godzilla vs gamera :)))

Blastoise's attack coming from his head instead of his cannons is an amazing, yet depressing touch.

I’ve always wanted to see someone bring up the Let’s Go’s ability to survive getting killed purely out of “dang my trainers gonna be sad” thoughts

The double Decidueye abuse absolutely killed me lmao

You should definitely make a gen 9 pokemon battle royale. I’d love to see it!

In my version just for my happiness and love for my two absolute favorites, torterra and feraligatr tag team and win.

I'm glad Swampert had a bit of the spotlight in this battle. Also, I love how H-Samurott got revenge on Infernape for their Unovan counterpart.

Hisuian dicidueye doing the same thing as regular dicidueye and then immediately dying made my day, that was hilarious

Would've loved a scene where Incineroar is easily dominating a 2v1, but then one of his opponents leaves and he gets destroyed.

As a huge Chesnaught fan, I am just happy that my boy got some recognition that he deserves. Bro can take on a damn nuke and come out unscathed.

I love the callbacks to Samurott, Infernape, and Chesnaught’s moments from the original Pokémon Battle Royale! Nice touch.

3:42 made so much sense 😂

Charizard getting one shot by Pikachu always gets a laugh out of me. It's such a good one sided rivalry

It would've been really funny if Pikachu actually beat Blaziken in the final battle, just for a little Snivy to pop out of nowhere and annihilate the seemingly overpowered Pikachu

Grovyle with the time gear at 1:02 is just a love letter to all the mystery dungeon fan here! The references and lore in your videos know no bounds and we more than appreciate that ❤

Swarmpert having Earthquake and Surf makes me so happy that I wasn't the only one as a kid lol

Out of all them this one is by far my favorite

Swampert was the coolest out of all of them. Just chilling back launching Muddy Water reminds me of my first RSE playthrough!

Chesnaught’s “DISGUSTANG!!” never fails to make me laugh.

its cool that poipole is here as its a starter for people in the other world

Let's break down the rankings: - Rowlet: Immediately knocked out of the sky before the Pokeballs even finish falling. - Mudkip: Beat to a pulp by Combusken and Thwackey. - Poipole: Peaced out back to Ultra Space (loss by forfeit). - Chimchar & Chespin: Simultaneously incinerated by Charizard. - Torchic: Incinerated by Skeledirge. - Charmander: Instant self-destruct via drowning. - Piplup: Immediately crushed by Torterra. - Grovyle: Went back to the future (loss by forfeit). - Marshtomp & Quaxwell: Unanimously eviscerated by the grass types. - Vaporeon: Zapped by Jolteon, then frozen and shattered by Glaceon. - Glaceon: Melted by Leafeon running by while on fire. - Leafeon: Set on fire by Flareon, but lived long enough to melt Glaceon before dying. - Oshawott, Quilladin, & Brionne: Obliterated by Blastoise's Hydro Pump. - Wartortle, Dewott, & Empoleon: Obliterated by another of Blastoise's Hydro Pumps, although Empoleon withstood it a bit longer. - Blastoise: Shot by Inteleon while distracted with Feraligatr. - Feraligatr: Also shot by Inteleon, immediately after Blastoise. - Ivysaur & Chikorita: Couldn't handle the heat from the Fire/Fighting trio. - Primarina: Got Throat Chopped and then suplex'd past the blast zone by Incineroar. - Sceptile: Got Darkest Lariat'd past the blast zone by Incineroar. - Typhlosion: Used as a living nuke by Charizard. - Thwackey: Torched by Charmeleon. - Charmeleon: Fell into crevice made by Swampert's Earthquake. - Delphox: Also fell into crevice made by Swampert's Earthquake. - Venusaur & Meganium: Simultaneously incinerated by the Typhlosion nuke. - Sprigatito: Also incinerated by the Typhlosion nuke. - Litten: Blown away by the force of the Typhlosion nuke. - Turtwig: Also blown away by the force of the Typhlosion nuke. - Drizzile: Crushed by a tree toppled during the chaos. - Raboot: Crushed by a second tree immediately after Drizzile. - Quaquaval: Swallowed by Serperior. - Bayleef, Croconaw, Grotle, Prinplup, Serperior, Tepig, Pignite, Fennekin, Braixen, Frogadier, Grookey, AND Scorbunny: All swept away and drowned by Swampert's tsunami. - Inteleon: Zapped by Pikachu during the flood. - Torterra: Tricked by Meowscarada into eating a bomb. - Meowscarada: Punched into the stratosphere by Chesnaught. - Greninja: Incinerated by Charizard. - Hisuian Typhlosion: Sparta'd into the chasm by Charizard. - Decidueye: Pummeled by Infernape and Samurott. - Samurott: Face burnt off by Infernape. - Hisuian Decidueye: Pummeled by Infernape and Hisuian Samurott. - Infernape: Chopped in half by Hisuan Samurott. - Hisuian Samurott: Double Sparta'd into the chasm by Emboar & Blaziken. - Incineroar & Skeledirge: Simultaneously buried by Swampert's mud wave. - Emboar: Buried by another mud wave. - Cinderace: Stealth killed from behind by Sobble. - Rillaboom: Falls into a crevice created by Swampert's Earthquake earlier, but not before taking out... - Swampert: Is restrained and dragged into the same crevice by Rillaboom. - Sobble: Incinerated by Charizard while mourning the loss of his only friend. - Eevee: Curbstomped by Blaziken. - Charizard: Zapped by Pikachu. - Pikachu: Survived the beatdown of a lifetime for an extended period, but succumbed to his wounds in the end. - Blaziken: Winner winner, Kentucky Fried Chicken dinner! Presumed dead offscreen: Jolteon, Flareon, Totodile, Espeon, Umbreon, Treecko, Combusken, Chesnaught, Floragato, Fuecoco Never even shown: Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Cyndaquil, Quilava, Monferno, Snivy, Servine, Froakie, Sylveon, Dartrix, Torracat, Popplio, Crocalor, Quaxly. MVP: Easily Swampert, with 18 confirmed kills *at minimum*, and presumably most (if not ALL) of the offscreen ones too, considering the sheer amount of ghosts flying out of that chasm after the tsunami. The only one who appeared alive after the tsunami but still died offscreen was Chesnaught, so my best guess is that he got buried by a stray mud wave or something. Underdog: Sobble. Aside from Pikachu and Eevee (who were safe in the sky until the very end), Sobble was the only non-fully-evolved Pokemon to make it past the halfway point (surviving the nuke, both earthquakes, the tsunami, AND the barrage of mud waves flying everywhere). On top of that, he didn't stop there, ultimately reaching the top 5, and even managing to kill the fully evolved Cinderace along the way.

6:08 I like this moment. Epic Handshake💪🏾

what I love about terminalmontage is that we can understand all the videos even if your French plus there are subtitles otherwise continue like that you are the boss

Big shoutout to Swampert for utterly devastating the entire battlefield to an unprecedented degree AND going hard in a 2v1 against some Meta bois... Only to die to a particularly sharp blade of grass. Truly the most accurate portrayal of any Pokemon in all of your videos.

Surprisingly enough, this was the battle royale with the most teaming up and alliances from what i counted. Kinda neat actually

2:36 “That’s no way to treat a lady!” “You sure showed him.” “Shut up, you puny little geek!”

1:43 Game Freak finally fixed… this RIP head Hydro Pump

Mad respect to Swampert, he may not have won but he had by far the largest kill count in any Pokémon Battle Royale only arguably being outdone by Arceus. What a legend

8:32 "Pikachu turned back toward you and nodded in understanding" It understood we didn't want it to win.

I like how you used the started from a different dimension.

7:40 that pikachu had a ting called Plot armor

Incineroar using Throat Chop to stop Primarina's singing nearly made me spit out my drink laughing. Fantastic work as always!

That last fight just perfectly describes how strong Ash's Pikachu was by the end of his career.

The way swampert casually took out almost half of the starters

3:16 I love how Delphox tried to save his yoga/meditation friends

I love Chesnaught being completely unfazed by Meowsacrada’s bombs, and just launching it into the atmosphere.

Ok but the fact Swampert and Sobble almost won a 2v6 against the fire types is amazing

Oh my gosh thank you for the Kirby Samurai Slice minigame moment, that pulled me right back to playing that with my brother over and over again

Dude.... grovyle using the time gear and just leaving is underrated
