I'd argue there's some other things that Colosseum does better like the catching system cause it's literally possible to waste your Master Ball in XD, and half of the Shadow Pokemon are stuck on Citadark Isle where it's a big halt of the story since it's one massive island that takes literal hours to traverse.

I think XD wastes the players time more, especially in the beginning when you're escorting Jowy around.

Omg Gale of Darkness was my favorite game to play as a kid! I love the fact that Eevee is your starter and you can have any Eeveelution (Gen 1-3) super early in the game. Plus unlike most Pokémon games, Colosseum and Gale of Darkness aren’t hand holding at all so after the very short tutorial you can practically enjoy the game.

I played XD as a kid but didn’t learn about colosseum until later. I wish they had the balls to make another Pokémon game like this, the story had some darkness to it, the region was somewhat gritty and crime ridden, the protagonist was a criminal who betrayed his gang, it was so different but it worked so well. Not to mention it was difficult, especially with all the battles being doubles, which made the battle looks grander which fit the grand battle themes. The plot was simple it had some really cool ideas, the shadow Pokemon were basically living weapons and taking them back from the bad guys was a really cool mechanic. Hopefully with legends arceus being seen as good they’ll begin having more confidence in spin offs again. I’d love another Pokémon game like this

Got to love that during the 25th anniversary of Pokémon a whole 5 seconds of either Colosseum or XD played. If they ever remake this game I hope they give Mirror B a Buffalaunt. Let the music Play.

I love Colosseum so much. I really appreciate how much attention it's getting these days, it completely deserves it. Let the music play!

Let the music play! That said, I have to admit, headcanon for Wes, personally was something akin to having worked for them. The point he turned on Team Snagem was after finding out about shadow pokemon, and likely a threat that either his espeon or umbreon... or both... were going to be put through that process.

Eh give it a decade or so, Gen 6-8 will be more highly regarded because everyone got the vile out of their britches. It’s the cycle of Pokémon games, and as of right now it’s yet to be disproven.

If Pokemon ever decided to change things up again like how Sun and Moon had trials. I wouldn’t mind seeing them bring back Shadow Pokemon and having the gym challenge swapped out for raiding villain team bases. Also they should’ve remastered this game for the Wii U or Switch. They could’ve not done the Delcalore Islands arc in Black and White for Ash going to Orre and getting a gang of Shadow Pokemon to purify.

Pokemon Colosseum and XD are still in my top 5 favorite Pokemon games. They just have a certain unique feel and charm to them. Plus I love how every battle is a double battle.

I'M SO HYPED. First Pokemon game I ever played, favorite game of all time, and I absolutely LOVE the art

When I first got Colosseum as kid, I didn't like it because it felt too different. As I got older, I found a new love for it BECAUSE of its differences.

I think the older brother miss translation comes from the word Aniki (兄貴) which does mean older brother but is closer to boss, often used by gangster.

Beautiful work. So glad to see more love for the game! It really deserves it. And yesss that Rui art is beautiful! In the sequel it would have been great to see Rui as the main protagonist. Let the music play! Keep on rocking Manga!

I never played this game before. It looks really unique and I like the tone of the story. Let the music play!

Okay, I lost it with Decpacito Sprigatito, but it was also super cute. Rui had a midriff in Japan? Huh, the more you know. Shadow Pokemon were some of the coolest additions to the lore of the universe due to jimplications of what it takes to make them.

The battle theme you heard from Willie isn't play only for him, it's played when you go against casual trainers like old people rich\ ladies trainers, guys and guys with glasses( yes, that's a trainer class in this game) teachers, athletes, lady in suit (again, only in this game) and ace trainers.😶

On the "Darkest" title I think only Team Flare's planned genocide in X&Y really tops how dark this particular game's plot is, but on the whole this game does have the darkest atmosphere given that much of X&Y simply has Team Flare as a bunch of bumbling wannabes. Also, "Let the Music Play."

I agree with this for the most part. Cipher feels like an evolution of Team Rocket, in that their experimentation bore fruit. To what end, I'm not sure it's said, though world domination? Though now, I'd like to make an argument for DPP having the darkest storyline. Yeah there's planned genocide with Flare, but Cyrus was planning on nuking EVERYTHING just to be by himself. No ecological end goal like with Aqua and Magma (and Flare to an extent). No plan for works domination. Just to get away from the people that bother him. Relatable somedays, but still dark af to wipe all existence just to be alone

Let the music play! Colosseum and Gale of Darkness are games I never had the chance to play, although I did have a Gale of Darkness edition Gamecube at one time(I didn't know it was until I removed the black marker scribbles on the art. Why anyone would do that is anyone's guess).

LET THE MUSIC PLAY! ARHYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I think I still prefer Gale of Darkness over Colosseum. Just over the fact that in Gale, we have a much smoother introduction into the gameplay and improved Shadow Pokémon. I honestly would like to see more people talk about it you included. Decent enough video, do keep going.

petition to have the snagem hideout explosion be a bait-and-switch meme

Man this game bring back good memories. One of my favorites is having to reset the game when I didn't catch the shadows pokemon from the Combat.

16:55 Notices the nickname for the Typhlosion. Snickers… nice. Anyway, I have this game and beaten it. Love this game so much. Glad you’re covering it. The music and plot were really great.

Much of Colosseum and XDs gritty atmosphere and character designs comes from mangaka Sinichi Horimoto, who worked as character designer and Art Director for both games. A fun fact, the Demon Designer for the upcoming Chainsaw Man anime, Kiyotaka Oshiyama, has been illustrating Pokemon cards since 2011.

I played XD as a kid without knowing it was a sequel to Colosseum, but Orre was my first introduction into Pokemon. If there ever was a third game to this series it could go something like this: Instead of playing as a preteen just starting out on his journey like the mainline games, you'd be playing as a fugitive from another crime syndicate (Team Plasma or Galactic just off the top of my head) looking to start a new life in a new region. It's been several years since the end of Gale of Darkness and wild Pokemon are starting to return to the region, but there are still lawless elements. It's been established in Colosseum and GoD that the only way to safely cross the desert is by vehicles equipped with special hover technology, so a feature would be caravans pulled by teams of Mudsdales, and every trip would run the risk of being assaulted by hordes of desert Pokemon (Hippowdons, Cacturnes, Pawniards, etc). Rather than automatically get new regional starters at the very beginning like most games, you'd start off with a Pokemon from your criminal days (most likely something at a midway evolution like Magneton or Loudred), but get the opportunity to choose a regional starter around the midpoint of the game. And of course we'd need the return of Miror B! Let the music play!

20:59 I like how the sequel, XD Gale Of Darkness, straight-up did that too. 😂

"It doesn't affect Misdreavus."

I have an incredible amount of nostalgia for this game and XD and I’m so glad more people have been talking it about them these days.

For Orre itself, I'd like to see another game from this Region. Heck, I'd like to see another established character in Pokemon, being part of an evil team (which I do have an idea for) and a dad character. I do agree with you on a lot of the subject matter, especially on your closing thoughts "It took a risk". That's kind of why I like the Let's Go games and Legends so much, they're different from the main line series and shook it up, and I want to see more in that vain. Though I'm upset you don't didn't cover a few things. The solo gym leader of the region, which is understandable. But you didn't cover Miracle B, and that's a crime against nature. I mean did you hear *his* theme? It's just Miror B's theme but pitched up, making it ten times more hilarious. Also, using Chuggaaconroy's clips I see. Nice. Now Let the Music Play, I want to see your opinions on Shadow Luigi.

Finally pokemon colosseum is ACKNOWLEDGED. Thank you kamen

I'd love for them to return to this region in a Legends: Celebi game. Players would go back and forth through time with the help of Celebi restoring the barren region. The series only has gen 1-3 pokemon there but maybe other gens once thrived there too. Every change we make to the past would alter pokemon available in the future. Players would also have to discover the connection between naturally occurring shadow pokemon and the original grey dragon from gen 5 that lives in the past Orre region. Ancestors of cipher Admins; Dakim, Venus and Ein would have the paradox poekemon Gouging Fire, Walking Wake and Raging Bolt.

Let the music play! I'm glad I got a copy so I can use it later. Still I played XD as one of my first Pokemon games (The only reason I got a Gamecube was for XD) before I even knew of Colosseum existing and have only seen the game through LPs (Shadyguy999 (One of the first KZread channels I watched but that channel is gone) and Chuggaaconroy), but the Shadow Pokemon games have such a cool concept, that I love. I will probably have more to say about XD than Colosseum, and I hope to play Colosseum for myself someday (probably through an LP if I can learn how to record and make them).

Most of the modern animations came from Stadium and Colusseum, these kids should know their roots, this game was groundbreaking when it came out.

LET THE MUSIC PLAY! gotta admit, it is hard for me to not use the infinite ball exploit in this game.

I've seen a lot of retrospectives/reviews on this game and I think this video is a wee bit too scatterbrained for its own good. There's very little of the actual gameplay described in this video outside of the broadest strokes of the double battle formula. The Pokemon roster in this game is particularly interesting because a lot of the gen 2 Pokemon represented here are Pokemon that are previously unobtainable before the post game. Pokemon like misdrevious and Slugma really do get some nice time to shine in this game in a scenario where they wouldn't get another opportunity for a long time

I’m so happy the old school Pokémon console games are starting to get some love. Do XD! Let the music play!

Let the music play. I have to say I feel really lucky that I have both of these games in playable condition (one from a retro store and one I had when I was a kid) since I can't find it almost anywhere these days, and as a collector those games are must haves.

Fun fact: there was a bug wherein if you used your first Pokemon's turn to throw a ball, then with your second Pokemon went back into your bag and swapped that ball's position with another one in the bag before using a move, the ball you selected to throw wouldn't be consumed. I abused the hell out of it for infinite Master Balls once I got it 😂

One thing older games did really well was not explicitly tell you absolutely everything.

Without even watching the video yet I already have to agree with the title alone. This truly was a case on getting it perfect the first time. And honestly I think the credit should probably go to Genius Sonorities the devs for all the CONSOLE Pokemon games up until I believe the Switch. Once Game Freak started taking over development of their console games there was definitely a noticeable dip in quality. Not bad (For the most part at least) but definitely subpar compared to what we'd gotten in the past. Can't wait to watch the video to hear your take on the subject.
