I think nintendo might've been going for a "native american" thing with Alder. His mane is like a feather headdress, he appears to have the same ethnicity, one of his pokemon is a bison, and he doesn't have a permanent home. He also talks a lot about harmony with pokemon, but that's a huge theme in pokemon in general. He also wears a very traditional outfit.
@LordGlaive09 Go to Bulbapedia and search Elite Four. It'll show you near the bottom of the page that Alder is Various in his pokemon choices. Unless they're wrong of course.
@AlphaPowell27 Like I said. Bulbapedia classifies Steven as a Metal trainer even though he has only 3 Steel. Alder has 3 Bugs and is classified as Various. Don't ask me. Go look for yourself. Search Elite Four on Bulbapedia.
to all the people who think his theme doesnt have the badass music. Alder as a champion is VERY different from the other champions. He is not any champions who just sit there in their throne and let the player do all the work. This theme is supposed to show how strong of a person he is. He lost his beloved pokemon,almost lost hope when N beat him and he just wandered around searching for answers. But aftergame after seeing ur character this gave him new hope. This is the only battle i enjoyed!
@BattlzPKMon Considering you play through literally hundreds of battles to get to that point, I sincerely doubt in the entirety of the game that this was the ONLY battle you enjoyed. Otherwise you would never have beaten or even gotten to the endgame content (assuming you play games for fun). Think about what you're saying about the game if you say this is the only good battle. Did you not enjoy the rest of the game? I certainly loved everything up to and including this battle.
@WhiteVII Oops didnt mean the only battle i enjoyed, yes i did enjoy the whole game no ifs or buts about that. I meant to say was like it was more of a calm theme compared to the heartbeating N and ghetsis themes. I did enjoy the battle vs ghetsis and N but yeah i enjoyed this a bit more than them. Thnx for correcting me ^^
@BattlzPKMon Undoubtedly, it's an excellent song. Just when I was playing my Pokemon White game, the (don't get mad at me for saying this) silly intro threw me off completely! But it got me dancing my stupid dance, so that means It's excellent!
No wonder N kicked his ass. He has a sissy theme. Gary has shit pokemon and his theme makes it sound like his entire party is full of hacked hydregions.
@chungosensei (spoilers) wait, what? you don't fight alder the first time through the league, you have to rematch the entire league before you can fight him. by this time, an epic theme would be kind of out of place, because you don't have to fight him at all; once you beat ghetsis, the game's basically beat.
@chungosensei that's because this is not the final boss of the game. it's more of a fun side thing you do after you have beat the game. the true final boss theme is absolutely epic.
Right after wallace alder has to be the second easiest champion i just swept him with my chandalure 6 calm minds while his first bug just uses energy ball then just spam shadow ball exept for the buffalo.
In my opinion, Alder had too many pokemon with base stats under 500 to be too much of a challenge. His Volcarona probably swept some people but thats about the only one you have to worry about.
@MrMorax94 Have you ever tried to beat the elite four with pokemon that werent fully evolved? You know how hard that is? That's all base stats. Having 4 pokemon with stat totals under 500 make them noticably easier to beat. Hence why Cynthia is so much tougher even though her pokemon are only 2 levels higher.
@Helljumper91 There are numerous fully evolved pokemon with base stats beneath 500 that make do excellently, Scrafty and Breelom are an example, my Escavalier wreaked havoc on Getsis team and his silly Sazandora, most pokemon have their own unique strength and if you try to make use of it you might just do a little better.
@MrMorax94 I dont think I need to "do better" since my team is pretty good at the moment, but I can see what you're saying. What I'M saying is that at similar levels the strength of a particular pokemon is heavily dependent on base stats. Some lower stat pokemon have their advantages, yes, but if you take them out of their element (i.e. Garchomp using agility while fighting against an Accelgor) then they are defeated very easily. I tend to 1 shot all of the ones you listed. continued....
@MrMorax94 Every pokemon has its strengths, but some of them are just not as good when used in high level play. Bug types are, generally, a great example of this. Great when starting out, pretty good mid-game, bad end game.
But I suppose having a team of your favorites is just as important as having a team that wins all the time. I'm in that niche where my favorites ARE the ones that win all the time >.>
@Helljumper91 He also has escavalier which is pretty much OU without debate and Scizor pretty much wrecked the metagame in 4th gen. Forretress was another bug that can be even found in ubers
@Helljumper91 Yeah that explains why they're not uber. Otherwise they'd be destroying the entire ou metagame. U know scizor is one of the best pokemon in competitive battling? Ferrothorn also has 4x fire AND 2x fighting while scizor only has fire yet it's high ou. Yanmega is not bad too though it's UU.
@Pokemariofan107 because that's what pokemon is supposed to be about, right? taking the game so seriously that you stop having fun and looking down on other people because they play differently? personally, I know what Individual values and effort values are, but I don't care about them or natures, because I don't see the point in putting in tons of effort for a slight advantage in a children's game when it's supposed to be about fun.
@robokill387 IMO it is. Seriously, the actual games takes about 5 days to beat. Its REALLY easy. Pokemon isn't even good except for the competitive. Besides only little kids play it for the "friendship" or collecting. If you wanna play something fun, play Left 4 Dead or Mario. Pokemon's "campaign" is way too short. And its not as fun as competitive which is MULTIPLAYER the real reason for video games unless your a loner in a basement
@zappsouliz Ok, so you're obvously a n00b at Pokemon who doesn't know about evs and ivs, and damage formulas or anything. I can judge Pokemon ok? I am a pro at it. I've seen all the episodes, read all the manga (fuck the cards) and i can really say, l4d is awesome so stfu. ssI can probably kick your ass 10000 times in pokemon. And it isa campaign, unless your younger than 10, campaign stands for story mode as opposed to competitive.
@Pokemariofan107 Mario sucks donkey balls, yes pkmn games are short and easy, but there fun (pkmn red/blue all the way to black/white) and emotional at times- (mystery dungeon series) It has it's good bits and it's bad bits, but imo, pokemon is as deep and as good as games come (ev's and iv's)
@TmRocket4tw I agree with you. It has good bits and bad bits. Its THE DEEPEST VIDEO GAME IN HISTORY because of the damn Hidden Values. that makes it WORK instead of a game now. But it makes competitive battling the funnest cometitive in video game history. Unfortnatly it gets quite cumbersome at times, and the STORY mode gets boring as hell. Also Mario does not suck donkey balls. Pokemon is shit compared to left 4 dead in my opinion. Its all opinion
@Pokemariofan107 yh I understand everything you've said and agree with, but imo, the only good mario games are the RPG's -partners in time ect :) never played left for dead, so I cant judge that, but iv heard its really good
@TmRocket4tw ok lol, l4d is actually not that good. I was just responding angrily to Mario being not good. Yeah, it has detoriated. But Super Mario Galaxy series, the 3d series, and the RPGS are all good. Even some sport series are good! The platformers have good music at least... Pokemon is an incredibly great game, but its not the ONLY game out there, and it WILL get boring which is alot of people quit it. The thing is competitive solves the boring issues, which make pokemon a great game
@TmRocket4tw Whats yh? Anyways Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2 are one of the best games in that series. But MG2 is worse than MG1 imo. Anyways with competitive, competitive Pokemon basically makes Pokemon one of the best vdeo games with all time. Without it its only mediocre though. So I get kinda pissed when people say competitve are for people too into it, they say that because they're really too dificult for them makingthm n00bs. Thats why if ou don't know competitive you're n00bs imo
@TmRocket4tw Lol I meant shoddy and pokemon online. Simulators, search it up. Also you can look for people to friend code battle Which is more reliable than random matchup
@robokill387 Technically it's not stop having fun guys, it's over 13 guys who still play pokemon. Name one over 13 who plays pokemon for the cute animals or the retarded Anime. The cards are bad too. The manga isnt that bad though. I can judge pokemon since I've done nearly everything there is to pokemon. Pokemon gets boring once your over 13, competetive is a few saving points. Otherwise I'd be playing left 4 dead or resident evil 5. Most 10 year olds play shooters now. Dream world is fun thouh
@Pokemariofan107@Pokemariofan107 Ok I take some of that back since I got my first legit shiny yesterday! A boldore while searching for stones and gems in swirling dust. I had Pokerus 3 times before but Pokerus is MEANT for competiive battling. Shinies are a way to show off in competitive i guess... Also the Anime isn't bad, it's the goddamn English dub which makes them sound like ducks and makes me wanna puke. Japanese version is SOO MUCH BETTER
Though other themes portray badassness, this one just makes the battle more exciting.

He also talks a lot about harmony with pokemon, but that's a huge theme in pokemon in general. He also wears a very traditional outfit.

@Pokemariofan107 because that's what pokemon is supposed to be about, right? taking the game so seriously that you stop having fun and looking down on other people because they play differently? personally, I know what Individual values and effort values are, but I don't care about them or natures, because I don't see the point in putting in tons of effort for a slight advantage in a children's game when it's supposed to be about fun.

@robokill387 IMO it is. Seriously, the actual games takes about 5 days to beat. Its REALLY easy. Pokemon isn't even good except for the competitive. Besides only little kids play it for the "friendship" or collecting. If you wanna play something fun, play Left 4 Dead or Mario. Pokemon's "campaign" is way too short. And its not as fun as competitive which is MULTIPLAYER the real reason for video games unless your a loner in a basement

@zappsouliz Ok, so you're obvously a n00b at Pokemon who doesn't know about evs and ivs, and damage formulas or anything. I can judge Pokemon ok? I am a pro at it. I've seen all the episodes, read all the manga (fuck the cards) and i can really say, l4d is awesome so stfu. ssI can probably kick your ass 10000 times in pokemon. And it isa campaign, unless your younger than 10, campaign stands for story mode as opposed to competitive.

@Pokemariofan107 Mario sucks donkey balls, yes pkmn games are short and easy, but there fun (pkmn red/blue all the way to black/white) and emotional at times- (mystery dungeon series) It has it's good bits and it's bad bits, but imo, pokemon is as deep and as good as games come (ev's and iv's)

@TmRocket4tw I agree with you. It has good bits and bad bits. Its THE DEEPEST VIDEO GAME IN HISTORY because of the damn Hidden Values. that makes it WORK instead of a game now. But it makes competitive battling the funnest cometitive in video game history. Unfortnatly it gets quite cumbersome at times, and the STORY mode gets boring as hell. Also Mario does not suck donkey balls. Pokemon is shit compared to left 4 dead in my opinion. Its all opinion

@Pokemariofan107 yh I understand everything you've said and agree with, but imo, the only good mario games are the RPG's -partners in time ect :) never played left for dead, so I cant judge that, but iv heard its really good

@TmRocket4tw ok lol, l4d is actually not that good. I was just responding angrily to Mario being not good. Yeah, it has detoriated. But Super Mario Galaxy series, the 3d series, and the RPGS are all good. Even some sport series are good! The platformers have good music at least... Pokemon is an incredibly great game, but its not the ONLY game out there, and it WILL get boring which is alot of people quit it. The thing is competitive solves the boring issues, which make pokemon a great game

@Pokemariofan107 shit yh mario galaxy is good, but I stoped liking mario for some reason, so iv never played mg2 :/
TmRocket4tw 9 months ago
@TmRocket4tw Whats yh? Anyways Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2 are one of the best games in that series. But MG2 is worse than MG1 imo. Anyways with competitive, competitive Pokemon basically makes Pokemon one of the best vdeo games with all time. Without it its only mediocre though. So I get kinda pissed when people say competitve are for people too into it, they say that because they're really too dificult for them makingthm n00bs. Thats why if ou don't know competitive you're n00bs imo

@TmRocket4tw Lol I meant shoddy and pokemon online. Simulators, search it up. Also you can look for people to friend code battle Which is more reliable than random matchup

@robokill387 Technically it's not stop having fun guys, it's over 13 guys who still play pokemon. Name one over 13 who plays pokemon for the cute animals or the retarded Anime. The cards are bad too. The manga isnt that bad though. I can judge pokemon since I've done nearly everything there is to pokemon. Pokemon gets boring once your over 13, competetive is a few saving points. Otherwise I'd be playing left 4 dead or resident evil 5. Most 10 year olds play shooters now. Dream world is fun thouh

@Pokemariofan107 @Pokemariofan107 Ok I take some of that back since I got my first legit shiny yesterday! A boldore while searching for stones and gems in swirling dust. I had Pokerus 3 times before but Pokerus is MEANT for competiive battling. Shinies are a way to show off in competitive i guess... Also the Anime isn't bad, it's the goddamn English dub which makes them sound like ducks and makes me wanna puke. Japanese version is SOO MUCH BETTER
