I like Slither Wing more. Truly my only regret with picking Violet. But Volcarona is always cool even as a robot, so I'm fine with that. I'm happy enough that it's one of the few pokemon that got to have both forms.

With the names of the past forms, I always interpreted the meaning of their names being like how early humans would call creatures like this during a time when proper naming and categorization of species wasn't invented yet. Kinda like how in Land Before Time, the dinosaurs all call each other by nicknames based on their physical appearance rather than their species name, like Long Necks, Three Horns, Fliers and Sharp Teeth and such. Same sorta thing here, and it made the past forms all the more fascinating to me. With the future forms though, as much as I like them, there's something about them that makes them seem kinda depressing (in a deep, slightly horrific way), and it stems from when you think about exactly what they are in relation to their names. Unlike the past forms names that come from a basic understanding of what a new creature looks like, the names of the future forms give off the idea that, in the distant future, Pokemon are seen as little more than utilities to be used rather than their own beings, so much so that they've been retrofitted into being literal robots, forever ensuring that they'd be seen as and referred to as nothing more than tools or weapons. It's the kind of future that N in Black and White would've feared that Pokemon would become had he and pre-twist Team Plasma not stepped in.

I overall like the past forms better than the future ones. The past versions seem like more savage versions of existing Pokemon and you can kinda see how they might've developed into what they eventually became. How their survival strategies evolved and changed as time went on. Slither Wing and Sandy Shocks gaining flight, Roaring Moon gaining more usable limbs, Scream Tail adapting its screaming to singing, etc. The future forms however are all just robot versions of existing pokemon with no real new adaptions or traits beyond being metallic, and they aren't even steel type! They look less like the pokemon adapted and changed survival strategies and more like someone built robot versions based on existing Pokemon who didn't change at all in the far future. The exception being Iron Valiant who, by merging traits of Gardevoir and Gallade along with their mega forms at least looks like it diverged from the present day versions beyond just "being a robot". Iron Thorns looks pretty cool. Though for some reason I find Iron Treads to just be disturbing to look at, same for Iron Bundle's detachable head. Are we absolutely sure Turo didn't miscalculate and just start stealing robots from a pokemon version of Eggman a few decades in the future?

I actually have a theory that the Pokémon are from a future where another giant Pokémon war happened, leaving the world in a desert-like hellscape. The remaining humans fled underground, nearly all Pokémon went extinct except for a few. Using the few pokemons dna (because of how many Pokémon there are, a few is like 150) they made new Pokémon to help them get good and search, they had to make Pokémon nearly entirely robot so 1: they wouldn’t die, atleast not for centurys and 2: so they could survive the harsh weather. They also needed to put cameras in them so they could see what was outside. Iron treads rolls on its trunk thing to get across the landscape easily, iron valiant is used to sample stuff from the outside world and also to take down and get dna from any Pokémon that could’ve survived up there so they could make improved forms. Iron thorns are used as shields whenever the human bunkers get under attack ect ect.

Nah if anything I think the future paradoxes are far more interesting in an existential dread sort of way. The implication that something happened in the future to cause all organic Pokémon to be converted into machines, either machines mimicking Pokémon or the Pokémon having to be transformed entirely into iron constructs. Maybe Pokémon went extinct entirely in the future and mankind tried to revive them with technology in the only way they knew how. Yet these machines are functionally exactly the same as Pokémon, they have types, movesets, and even still retain personalities. It’s really interesting in a bleak distant dystopian future sort of way

I really like both forms however when it comes to shinies, Scarlet nails it. I know Violet is more futuristic and has more of the bland-still designs, however the shinies just makes it more robotic-y than anything else, though it sells on its future and robotic look, it fails at being as cool shinies. Especially with Miraidon, changing its cool and slick purple to a though cool silver, makes it look honestly bland like the others, the only exception for me is Future Volcarona and Tyranitar, but that is it. With Scarlet, It really brings more vibrant colors, and shows that its different but the same in a way as referencing of course the past, and Kiraidon has honestly the best shiny in existence. The charcoal black and white with the hint of fire really brings out how cool it is, especially with Salamence and Jigglypuff, its exceptional and honestly really brings out emotions on a Pokemon. Don't get me wrong, Both forms are amazing, I just wish Violet had more vibrant colors on their shinies instead of being just, "yeah its a robot." it makes their original shinies look like a joke.

Definitely an unpopular opinion: I like the future forms' shinies. That doesn't mean I don't like the shinies of past forms, but I appreciate what they're going for here, however lazy it is. So basically, I see that it's not just "because they're robots so metallic paint should be here", it's also an idea of being efficient. It's basically the idea is that those Pokemons are massively produced, so only their "weapons" or "core" (that are most likely of pure energy or something like similar) and the thing that tells their type remain, since those parts have always been this color when installed unto the body(or chassis cuz it sounds cool :p). Of course, we're not talking about humans doing the production, they would definitely put colors on them, no, it's all something an AI would do to preserve time with efficiency. It's definitely lazy because there's way more things you could do with colors that would be cool(Like, I can see some of them with a rusted color palette), so slapping the same one across all mons is just shooting your own foot, but this is also why I kinda like them. I like that idea of what's essentially Terminator Pokemons. We've only got Genesect as something like that and it's a cyborg. Now, I don't think Game Freak should have something similar in the future, because it is ultimately lazy as I said multiple times, and you don't have to agree with me, I understand why you like having actual color on shinies. I personally like it, and that's fine.

Has anyone else noticed that the sounds that accompany any paradox pokemon's cry sounds kinda like the ticking of a clock? (except koraidon and miraidon)

These designs are very much more pocket monsters than what we’ve seen. Like Roaring Moon. Love these designs.

I remember someone hacked an older pokemon game that has a kind of studio in one of its story stage, that features a parody character and some of them are futuristic Pokémon. Here we are now seeing them in new game. They had the plan all along.

Common theme among past paradox forms: stronger attacks Common them among future paradox forms: more mobility We can see that in donphan where he loses his tusks for mobility. Volcarona has its legs on the ground as slither wing, but completely levitates in the future. We complain why koraidon doesn't use it's wheels, this is why. As miraidon, it can completely levitate.

This is actually kind of cool now we're going to catch robot Pokemon now

Big robotic Pokemon could have been cool, now you have the little toy versions... Great...

Originally I wasn’t a fan of the future forms but they’ve seriously grown on me! Also I really appreciate the shiny comparison

Although I'm a Scarlet girl through and through, bloody love Iron Valiant. They fact they didn't choose but instead merged Gardevoir and Gallade together. Nice! Wish they did something similar in Scarlet.

From what I read it's an experiment from a scientist who tired to do the perfect psychic type, but failed because it became violent

Every Past Paradox has a deep hum accompanied by the sound of clattering sticks. Every Future Paradox has a guttural groaning interlaced with clinking gears. Koraidon and Miraidon instead take it a step further with a heavy drum beat and high-pitched whirring respectively, perhaps demonstrating their status as "advanced", or "Major Legendary" Paradoxes in comparison to their rest of their brethren. These end of cry sound effects also double as yet another parallel to the Ultra Beasts, including Cosmog's Line and Necrozma, all of whom had a deep metallic ringing at the end of their cries. Loving this concept of otherworldly or "extroverse" Pokémon groups entering the normal world and finding new lives there alongside the Protagonists. Hope there will be more Ultra Beasts and Paradoxes in the future. Great video!

The shinies for the futuristic pokemon make sence being the shiny iron/chrome color texture, but it does seem a bit bland without some extra colors... the ancient pokemom have better shinies because of the more colors and diffrent color ranges... both legendaries have cool shinies (koriadon is the one im leaning more of a favor to it's opposite miriadon, black would look good on both of them, and Shiny Miriadon would look way better with a bit more color within it's color scheme, like maybe have some scarlet in there to represent the other game)
