>>58167854>>58167847It's probably worth mentioning that Terminal just does the animations for those, the actual verdict and likely most of the key points are courtesy Gnoggin.
As for my personal opinion on them, considering the premise (taking the pokedex entries hyper literally):
>Original Battle RoyaleIt's fine I guess. The Magcargo thing makes a ton of assumptions about the nature of Pokeballs and mostly just exists as a scene to shill another gnoggin video, but I guess it's a convenient way of eliminating the fodder mons. The conclusion being "Ditto wins because it can copy any other mon" is technically sound enough that it's hard to really call it a "bad pick", but it's just questionable enough that the end falls flat.
>LegendaryBest of the bunch, even if the outcome is kind of a forgone conclusion. The split ending feels very much like gnoggin didn't want to just go for the obvious "Arceus wins because it's god lmao" ending, but also wasn't confident that audiences would buy a Necrozma win.
>BabyMakes sense, keeps with the original concept and the winner makes sense. Nothing else to say.
>MegaKind of feels like a retread of the original, but then Rayquaza wins because it's the best according to Smogon feels like a lazy solution that's antithetical to the entire idea behind the first video.
>GigantamaxI care about this video as much as I care about the mechanic. Which is to say I don't. Lapras won because VGC or something, which I don't mind because fuck those two furry faggots.
>Ultra BeastsStill a bit too reliant on smogon, some Ultra Beasts got shafted as fuck, but the winner is fine enough and uses some dex logic.
>StarterActual dog shit. Tries to use selective game logic to give fire types an edge, Blaziken wins despite being a fragile piece of shit, dex entries were mostly ignored which defeats the purpose of these things.
>ParadoxPhoned in because new mon types we need to do a video. Ghost wins because it's a ghost and also Smogon?
