[FoxItAll]

Ash wanted to be the best like no one ever was. Red didn't give a fuck. Red wanted to crush the dreams of all of those before and after him. Long live Red.

[avak]

what if red has gone nuts because he can't find the mew that was supposed to be under the truck

[KaizenKitty]

Red's story continues :D eventually he makes peace with rival Blue and they go on vacation together to Alola!

[doctorxawesomestop-motion]

Just saying, I always stop and say goodbye to my mom when I play through Kanto.

[wishesvalentine]

your mom heals your pokemon faster than the nurse

[TheJotaroKujo]

Why do you guys look at it as Gold defeating Red?
You don't get it, it's about YOU beating YOURSELF.

[Djstudiosgold]

And now Red returns in Sun and Moon after all these years, grown up. An adult. Possibly representing how even though a lot of us have grown up and become adults, our love for pokemon remains the same.

[kduc]

Zubat: *exists*
Max Repel: im about to end this man's career

[tadasuko]

Why didn't they just make Pokemon Origins into the main series?

[machiavelli]

When I get kids i will patiently wait untill their 10th birthday and gift them a nintendo and the newest pokemon edition and tell them that they shall come to me when they beat the game meaning the elite 4. And when they do so and finally come to me....
...
...
I WILL REVEAL THAT I TOO GOT ONE NEW POKEMON EDITION and that they have to beat me first to become the very best !
Little do they know that i will
IMPORT MY OLDSCHOOL POKEMON TEAM WHICH THEY NEVER HEARD OF AND I WILL WRECK THOSE 21st CENTURY KIDS
MUAHAHAHA

Either that or i will peacefully play with them.. but my first idea is too tempting XD

[PeeperSnail]

Moral of the story: Don't catch em' all, you'll become an edgy hermit and decide to live on the top of a mountain, eventually forgetting how to say anything except "..."

[neoneo]

Red never loses to Gold, you the player defeats him.

[mayora]

This video is more than enough to show Ash is worst than Red. Red literally represent all of us who played the game since the beginning time of Pokémon and now in Sun and Moon.

[ronniefrancisco]

Glad Red and Blue were back in the reveals of Sun and Moon.
Thank you Game Freak.

[mwsullydon]

at 11:03 when Red "Disappears" I believe that Red represents us players as the main character so what i mean by that is if you were to be defeated the game would blink just like Red did as he "Disappeared" just think about this for a moment you will think that the game has ended but it has not :O so what i'm trying to say is that... Red Was defeated then went to the Pokemon Center That was in a close area not accessed by us (Gold/Silver players) And then Red Remembers the Fun in Battling and decides to Retake his journey which was to become the Real Pokemon Master! Just my theory though but yeah would appreciate it if you can retake this video with the theory i provided ya know the when you lose a Pokemon match= game over= blink=Pokemon Center

[taitaylor]

i always wondered
where the heck was reds moms room

[JonathanToolonie]

Red is love. Red is life. Just like my balloon.

[dollarama]

"the STORY you already knew but he still insists you don't"

[peppermint]

"Blue! No! It can't be! Who knew smelling people at some point in the future could make you so good at Pokemon?"
This had my dying for hours. XD

[XerxesTexasToast]

That part towards the end about dying obsession really struck a chord with me, especially about the "defeat that just didn't sit well". The peak of my Pokémon obsession, during the early fourth gen, was also when I got into Action Replay, and I became fixated on the three Mythicals of Sinnoh: Darkrai, Shaymin, and Arceus. I had a dex completion cheat, but that wasn't enough. I wanted these three for real.
I had found cheat codes that had worked for the first two, but an Azure Flute code couldn't be found. I got so desperate that I rejoiced when I found an Azure Flute code that actually put a mailman in my PokéMart! But it didn't work. Every time I talked to him to accept the item, the game froze. And the only way I could think to delete my file.

Five hundred hours and all my Pokémon from Pearl and Emerald, gone.

It really made me feel like nothing was permanent and that ambition will be your downfall. That's when my interest in Pokémon began to decline. I began to notice that I paid less attention to previous generations once the next game came out. I feel less attached to my Pokémon these days. I still loyally buy the games, though, and my interest is slowly coming back with competitive battling. Maybe I'm returning to the Pokémon world just like Red is: on my way to a world tournament.
