Version exclusives mainly exist for two reasons: 1. Money 2. To encourage trading That being said, I am also in the camp of people who wished that version-exclusives never existed. I think Scarlet and Violet have an especially massive problem with version exclusives with how many viable VGC Pokemon that are version-exclusive like Raging Bolt and Flutter Mane.

Actually find the Violet paradox Pokemon to make more sense in the story. And for Violet to make more sense as a story in general. The professor creates an AI of himself for one. That makes way more sense for a future game than a past game. So much so that I genuinely assumed that the ending to Scarlett must be different. I was confused to find out its the exact same. I was genuinely thinking to myself there's no way that they create an AI in Scarlet it has to be something different. Also the robot Pokemon are much more "scary" and weird. In the context of the game where all the characters are freaked out by them and wonder if they're even Pokemon. The Scarlet paradox Pokemon are still very obviously Pokemon. theyre organic living creatures. Even if you've never seen one before you could still very much assume that they are Pokemon even within the context of the game. However the violet paradox Pokemon are literal robots. You look at them and wonder if they're even Pokemon or if they're just machines. Which makes way more sense for how the characters react to them. And it helps with the creepy vibe of area 0 that they were going for. Having basically just caveman versions of Pokemon isn't scary or eerie. And it really doesn't support the vibe that these Pokemon are extremely dangerous and unknown that the game tries to set up. I feel like you could very easily guess what Pokemon of the past could do. Pretty much the exact same thing that Pokemon of the now do if not slightly worse because they arent as evolved genetically. These robot Pokemon tho? Yeah we have no idea about these things. They exist far off in the future. we don't know what they're capable of. And if they're even alive. Which is what the game is going for. The game constantly refers to how it's extremely dangerous down there and they don't know what these Pokemon are capable of. Which is how arvin's Pokemon gets hurt while he's looking for his parents. So much so that a Pokemon center couldn't even heal it. I can't buy that for the past Pokemon because they're just Pokemon but ancient. But I can buy that for these future Pokemon that are literal robots. One of which according to the Pokedex is a literal death machine created from what used to be the real terrakion. presumably by team plasma when they say "evil organization" That we would have absolutely no way of knowing what they could do. Some of these are literal programmed death machines. It says the same for iron crown as well. It's not even a Pokemon it's a literal machine created by humans. That is far more terrifying than just a dinosaur Pokemon. And much more believable that it could cause irreparable damage to arvin's Pokemon. When I hear the battle music in area zero. The eerie vibe it tries to give off. I feel it in violet. Because these Pokemon are just weird. In Scarlet though? It's still nice music but it doesn't feel nearly the same because these are just Pokemon. In violet its like. Ok wtf are these things. Are they even alive. Which the characters do say and acknowledge in both games. So to me that just simply makes more sense in violet. Heck maybe these Pokemon are extinct in the future. Maybe that's why they are artificially created machines. We know terrakion is extinct now considering the only one that existed was turned into a robot by "an evil organization" that's a lot more interesting to think about

Trade evolution is being used to troll players in Scarlet and Violet. If you select a trade evolution item in your bag, you'll see an option to 'Use' the item on a Pokémon. Doing this ultimately achieves nothing as you are immediately told the item 'won't have any effect' So why waste time putting the option there if it was never going to work? Also these Pokémon appear in tera raids anyway so you no longer need the items and trading anyway!

1:33. That Scream Tail legit scared me💀. Look at those demonic eyes.

And that's another reason why I love PLA so much, you can do everything in that game alone, and without anyone else's help too.

Fun fact: there’s no way to tell if a traded pokemon is genned, as if a pokemon is ‘legal’ the hack check in game does not catch it. 99% of DQs for genned pokemon have been because those genned pokemon were not legally obtainable in game; stuff like being caught in the wrong place or being in a pokeball they could not be obtained in.

Version exclusives outside of the cover art legendary are literally pointless. Fun fact Heart Gold and Soul Silver removed this effect from the cover legendary Pokémon, get 16 gym badges and speak to a certain NPC and you can get both Ho-Oh and Lugia in a single game. This kind of feature is now removed by plot, sword and shield your rival will always get the other legendary Pokémon despite being a weakling and unworthy to be a Pokémon trainer according to themself. Scarlet and Violet the time machine gets butterfly effected out of existence so you can't use it to get the other paradox Pokémon you need. Honestly the dumbest one jas got to be Ambipom and Gliscor's lines being version exclusive Pokémon, basically unless you're trading spare shinies for legendary/Paradox Pokémon you need Nintendo switch online is virtually worthless in scarlet and Violet as they more often than not release cross version mass outbreaks that render the initial version exclusivity worthless as you can just literally wait for one of these to be announced and complete a Pokédex accordingly. They could probably fix the bugs in Scarlet and Violet with the space saved by removing several shiny locks and the stupidity of version exclusivity that they just ignore later anyway. So why even have bothered making the Pokémon version exclusive anyway if your going to go back on it months - a year or so from release? Heck you can even cheat the version exclusivity by using Pokémon home! Simply own any game interfaceable with home and drop the required Pokémon into Scarlet or Violet, you can even use Pokémon Go if you've caught the Pokémon your transferring in the game your sending it to. So many ways to simply ignore the rules built into the games, rendering many of them meaningless to have been implemented in the first place.

As i kid i hated version exclusives and trade evos so much. I had no way of trading before the DS era (because there was like no market to buy the link cables anywhere, and everything else was bought second-hand, until the DS games) and i had no friends who played the game or had a link cable.

Not only do version exclusives need to be dropped, but even Trade Evolutions. And funny thing is, Game Freak kinda has this sentiment already. It's still mechanically in the game, but through raids or even overworld encounters, NEEDING to trade for a Pokemon has become a thing of the past. Game Freak has even stopped making Pokemon that need to be traded to evolve with the last trade evolution Pokemon being Alolan Golem, and if we aren't counting regional forms, Gen 6 was the last gen to introduce trade evolution Pokemon. This proves that Game Freak does have an ear to the ground, and forcing ridiculous requirements like Gouging Fire and Raging Bolt is not only completely unnecessary, but a conscious decision. To not only have to pick the correct version, but the get the DLC and have the player catch around the ballpark of 300 Pokemon (because there is some overlap between dexs, thank GOD) is honestly ridiculous. I'm in the boat where Purple is my favorite color and the future Pokemon looked cool to me when I saw the leaks. Only to find out Flutter Mane is the best Pokemon since Zacian-Crowned AFTER the fact.

6:44 At least in Scarlet and Violet, you can use Union Circle instead of trading and actually still get to go and catch version-exclusive Pokémon yourself.

4:40 i did not expect to hear aespa in a Pokemon video but i thank you for doing so

Its worth mentioning that if you play multiplayer in scarlet and violet you can just get version exclusives that way. If you own violet and join a scarlet game of a friend you can catch their version exclusives because you exist in their host game. This became a full on feature in the DLC where some legendaries can only be obtained if you're playing in a group. For example in Scarlet. You can get reshiram in single player. But in Violet you get zekrom in single player. But if you play multiplayer quests you can get the opposite. This also applies to the event raids for walking wake and iron leaves. I just recently did this with my friend yesterday. They played on my game so they could get an iron leaves. And I joined theirs to get walking wake. This applies to any overworld spawn as well. If you want some Scarlet paradox Pokemon and you own violet. Just join up with someone who owns Scarlett go into area zero and catch them yourself. Because you won't be in your game anymore. You'll be in your friends version of the game. You'll be participating in their story and their version of the game. My friend and I discovered this when we joined each other for the first time and my friend was baffled that they could just catch one of my version exclusives

Welp in pokemon go you have to travel to a completely different countries to get them Imagine going to Alaska only for a pachirisu😂

The most stupid one's are in xy. The megastones are version exclusive, but if the pokémon is a version exclusive and has a mega, you can only find its megastone in the other version. I want to send anyone who thought that was a good idea to jail.

no version exclusives is part of the reason why i love pla no version exclusives no trade evolutions it was so good then to go back to the old way in sv was annoying :(

I thought I was getting an april fools vid D:

An example of version exclusivity that makes NO SENSE. In Pokemon S/M/US/UM You gain access to The Alternate World. It's basically the opposite version of whichever game you have. So, if you're playing Sun and you go through the portal, you'll be in a version of Alola with an Altar of the Moone and a Lake of the Moone instead of an Altar of the Sunne and a Lake of the Sunne. You are now playing on the map of the other game... however this only inverts the time. So, unfortunately, even though you are now in the world of Pokemon Moon, you can still only catch the Pokemon available in Pokemon Sun, and the Cosmog you will find at the alternate lake will NOT evolve into the other legendary, no matter how much grinding in the alternate world you do. It's BS, why not let the player have the other set of Pokemon? It's late game content anyway... Furthermore, in US/UM, you gain access to Ultra Wormholes. You can play a minigame of riding your box legendary, steering your Pokemon as you search for rare wormholes which will take you to places where you can catch legendaries... but only some of the legendaries... Despite the fact we are traveling through these Ultra Wormholes, which are basically taking us to alternate universes in different places and times... You are still limited. For example, you can only find Dialga in Ultra Sun by travelling through the wormholes... and Palkia in Ultra Moon. And you guessed it, Giratina can only be found if you have both Dialga and Palkia in your party while your travelling through the wormholes.

Really don't know why gamefreak didn't do the dlc paradox like that. In sun and moon, you could get multiple kartana, buzzwole, pheromosa and celesteela to keep one and trade for the other version. It would have been hell of a lot easier to get the paradox of both version if they did it like that

0:23 "Gotta catch some of 'em"

hard to trade when you dont got friends to trade with though ? which makes version exclusives much more of a pain

Another problem you didn’t mention with trading Pokémon’s like Raging Bolt is that the people who got it legitimately will never want to trade one away with you and if someone accepts to, the odds that it’s hacked are really high. Now imagine you got a hacked one and the person who you traded with says it’s legit, so you bring that thing to a tournament and get banned from competition. Not worth it in my opinion

I wish version rare was an actual therm, when I'm trying to look up what pokemon are more common in one game compared to another (or see what pokemon are concidered counterparts) I have no idea what to type, as it's not version exclusive, and everything else I try to type is either too long or just gives me version exclusive basically

I was going to ask for Pokémon Sword when gen 8 was coming out, but the MINUTE I saw Galarian Ponyta I switched to Shield on a dime. It’s a pastel unicorn. Younger me COULD NOT resist.

I wouldn't know I've been exclusively playing legends arceus

They expect you to have friends not buy both . 😂

Atleast Game Freak do promote trading Pokemon among people through these tactics. Meanwhile in Pokemon Go, you really can't complete your pokedex (especially legendaries/shinies) through only trading. There are region exclusive Pokemon, meaning if someone lives in America and wants a mon that's exclusive to Asia, Niantic will expect them to either travel to Asia to catch that mon, or spend star dust (the in game currency) to be able to trade for it to complete the pokedex. Moreover, the stronger variants of regular mons (ie, shadow mons) can't even be traded, meaning that you will have to get them yourself only. Niantic can only actively discourage trading more.

1:30 Mega Man getting stabbed has been mentioned

I always thought you are supposed to trade those with your frend, who often has the other version of the game

Bruh calling Koraidon and Miraidon "sandwich eating motorbikes"

Pokémon Legends Arceus is proof that we don't need version exclusives anymore

I liked how Illumise and Volbeat got handled better, one is super rare but they both at least exist in the game normally, wish a few more Version Exclusives were like that...

The movie poster you found is in German?

Wasnt as bad when the games were 30 bucks and no dlc since i always got the 3rd version which usually gave the ones i was missing but once they stopped doing that and raised the prices it became a pain and wasn’t worth trying to get them all I would just wait for the next gen to get the ones i missed or the wifi events. They really need to stop version exclusives and just make one game on release and invest more time into polishing the game.

the dlc exlussive pokemon is not fair

Where’s the clip in 6:47 from

This is why I like Legends Arceus. There no version exclusives. Looking forward to Pokemon Legends Z-A.

My favorite gen 9 pokemon is raging bolt, I bought violet and just never bought the dlc because I couldnt get the one pokemon I wanted.

Considering every single game in the series has had trades, I'm 90% sure version exclusives are to promote interacting with other players. Which still boosts profits, because an active fanbase basically promotes the product for you. I doubt individuals buying both versions for themselves is the primary factor behind different versions.

Something I wish happens someday is that they sell 1 version, but then have something in-game plot wise allow for a player to choose their version. Looking at the western release of Yo-Kai Watch 3 for my example, because literally there's a plot check that's like "ok what's better Sushi or Tempura" (Japanese versions were Sushi and Tempura). Something extra nice is that there was another prompt or two asking again "do you like this or this" in an obvious way to change your mind. This makes it so players during the main story choose a version without needing to do it at purchase, and means they only need 1 version. You'd still need to play multiple playthroughs, but fortunately you can have multiple saves with switch profiles (although I'd love there to be even just 2 save slots in Pokemon, Yo-Kai Watch 3 has 2 and the previous ones have 3 slots, so I'd like Pokemon to catch up in that regard)

I thought of a game with a $30 skeleton game, then your choice of $30 add-ons. Comes with three saves, plus an additional three for each DLC you buy.

Well this video technically had an intro. April fools?

Honestly, version exclusives shouldnt exist and the only differences in versions should be cosmetic.

"Where's the fun in that?" Trading literally is the one fun thing that let Pokémon stand out among mon games in the 90s and made it the giant that it now is.

@@falcon_arkaig I agree on that. But isn't GTS trading in Pokémon Home possible without Premium?

Scenes when Hmaz gets into an entirely different franchise which also has two distinct versions per game ⚽️

Version exclusive Pokemon should not exist or not be competitively viable at all

I admit they can get repetitive if you're not willing to expend a lot of time in the game, but I actually liked doing it. Also some were really funny, like Azelf having a jab at it's best move being explosion.

Xy was 40 not 60

What are your thought in "light" version exclusives, where in the Sword and Shield DLC you have the choice of getting a different legendary over other? You still need to trade but at least you can get the Pokémon you want at first.

Tbh I wish you made an April Fool's vid, but good vid nonetheless

So basically it's pay to win

thats why i hack pinsir in when i need it tho heracross is way better...

I actually only bought Violet because it had Gulpin. Not even kidding. Gulpin best pokemon. Gulpin deez nuts.

Why not two games in one region but the region itself is different, make it two parts of one story. Maybe past and future? Make it different enough that playing the other actually feels like a separate entity.

I mean her anime has literally lie and april in the name

His voice is fun to hear

Honestly, I only like version exclusives if they are for a reason. Like Zangoose and Seviper being version exclusive in ruby and sapphire, because they are know rivals in the pokemon world.

Also keep in mind that sometimes the third game does something else, like only having one or the other. Other examples of this include: Solrock and Lunatone in ruby and sapphire respectfully, Latios and Latias in ruby and sapphire respectfully, the Vulpix and Growlithe lines in multiple games, the Oddish and Bellsprout lines in multiple games, Scyther and Pinsir used to be duo, the Magby and Elekid lines in multiple games (although sometimes they aren't), Psuedo legendaries in multiple games, the fosil pokemon in multiple games, the Murkrow and Misdreavus lines in multiple games, the Meowth and Mankey lines in multiple games, the Ledyba and Spinarak lines in silver/soulsilver and gold/heartgold respectfully, Sableye and Mawile in multiple games, the Caterpie and Weedle lines in the Unova region games, Plusle and Minun in multiple games, the Solosis and Gothita lines in sword/shield and the Unova region games, the Rufflet and Vullaby lines in multiple games, the Bonsly and Mime Jr. lines in multiple games, Throh and Sawk in the Gen 6 games and sword/shield, the Spritzee and Swirlix lines in sword and shield, the Skrelp and Clauncher lines in multiple games, the Lotad and Seedot lines in multiple games, the different shellos forms, the Alolan forms of the Sandshrew and Vulpix lines in the Alolan games, the Cottonee and Petilil lines in multiple games, Oranguru and Passimian in multiple games, Turtonator and Drampa in the Alolan games and sword/shield, the Ultra Beasts in the Alolan games, the different basculin forms in multiple games, the Totem pokemon in the Alolan games, the Galarian forms of the Farfetch'd and Corsola lines in sword and shield, because the gymleaders that uses them are version exclusive, Flapple and Appletun's evolution exclusive items and they themselves are version exclusive in sword and shield, Stonjourner and Eiscue in sword/shield and scarlet/violet (Note that in sword and shield it is, because the gymleaders that uses them are version exclusive), the Galarian forms of the Darumaka line in sword and shield, because Melony has one and she is version exclusive, Pinsir and Heracross in the Isle of Armor DLC, the Glameow and Stunky lines as a reference to Mars and Jupiter from Sinnoh in multiple games, and the Aipom and Gligar lines in the Teal Mask DLC.
