Inazuma Eleven - All Version Exclusives and Which Game to Play

Much like the Pokémon games, Inazuma Eleven games were typically released as a pair of two or three games with each new entry, with each release of the game having a few pieces of exclusive content, such as Inazuma Eleven 2 Firestorm with its team Prominence (capt. Torch) and IE2 Blizzard with its team Diamond Dust (capt. Gazelle). This applies to pretty much all Inazuma Eleven games until Victory Road, with even the first game having some element of choice between the DS and 3DS releases! In this video, I'll go all the way up to Inazuma Eleven GO Galaxy and list off EVERY version-exclusive difference in the interest if helping you choose which Inazuma Eleven games to play.

Hot tip, when choosing which GO games to play, you're gonna need to know whether or not you're gonna like this one guy called Bailong, because he's a significant character exclusive to Inazuma Eleven GO Light, Chrono Stones Thunderflash AND Galaxy Big Bang in that order lmao

One thing Tale forgot about Inazuma 3 is that Lightning Bolt Exclusively let's you recruit Apostles from the Sky and Bomb Blast let's you recruit Devil Army Z
Whist Team Ogre attacks doesn't let you get either of them

[tedbrouwer]

One advantage for blizzard players: Icer ( a diamond dust defender) is exclusive to blizzard and she is one of the best players in the game, with charm up, decent tp for an alius player and great moves in frozen steal, aurora dribble and northern impact

[ZeroWit-irzu]

I'm from Portugal and i bought the 3ds version on the last day of the Eshop, i actually didn't knew it existed until in the last few days i thought i'd check if they'd do some promotions and came across it xD

And there is something preventing you from getting Axel and Shawn to level 100 in the second game, the level is capped out at 99🤣

[MohammadAli-fubb]

I recently started playing supernova on the English patch you lot released, it feels so fresh like a new game

[monarch]

surprised someone else has jordan and bailong as their top 2 favorite characters i thought i was the only one, just subscribed!

[murozaki]

Clearly there are two timelines at play here.

IE1 -> IE2 Firestorm -> Chaos Match -> IE3 Lightning Bolt -> Dark Angels Match -> GO Light -> Zero Match -> CS Wildfire -> Children of the Night Match -> Galaxy Big Bang -> Space Rankers Match
IE1 -> IE2 Blizzard -> Chaos Match -> IE3 Bomb Blast -> Dark Angels Match -> GO Shadow -> Zero Match -> CS Thunderflash -> Children of the Night Match -> Galaxy Supernova -> Space Rankers Match

And finally, Team Ogre Attacks is its own little weird world.

[mikederoos]

Cant wait until victory road comes out and you play it you made me get back into these amazing games!

[the_real_natsu]

"It doesnt stop you from having both at Level 100" Me with everybody at Level 99 :

[Grandmasterdisaster]

14:50 there actually are cutscenes featuring Burn/Gazel and Sein/Desuta in their respective games, although yeah it's not on the same level as GO1

[toymachine]

i love you toast!!! glad to still see u still talking about the

[oqo]

16:24
That was litterally me watching the anime without having watched the movie

[WitheringAurora]

9:54 Funnily Enough, even back when Lightning Bolt and Bomb Blast were Japanese DS games, they had those three moves within their code. If you used an action replay to give yourself 99 of each move, you got those three moves(And more, you also got all the Ogre Attack exclusive moves). Which you could put on your character and use, animation and all.

This was most likely due to Level 5 making the games Ogre Attack compatible from the start.

[inazuma_fan]

Having played firestorm about ten times and this year doing my first blizzard play through I’ll still go firestorm all day

[rolef]

idk why but i suddenly really felt the need to watch some of ur old vids back again and ngl they are great. even a vid like this where ive played all the games already its still nice. maybe rewatching ur galaxy playthrough is next

[gigachad_vergil]

A little bit of info (I know, very late):
-GO Light is based on the anime, while GO Shadow is based of the Manga, hence the diffrence in the wife choice. Same goes for Wildfire being the anime version, while Thunderflash is Manga based.
-Unlimited Shining and Ancient Dark Members (depending on your Version) can only be scouted after you linked both versions and defeated Team Zero first

-In GO Chronostones, Bailong and Sol are only story exclusive. After the Main Story, you're capable of recruiting the other one. Both have similair recruitment requirements, only diffrence being the Pal Society and required recruits you need. Tezcat can also be scouted in both games via download

[tizurl]

I also chose Thunderflash back in the day cuz of Bailong lmao

He’s just cooler than Sol what can I say

[michaelkowal]

18:27 I'm a huge fan of the anime, so Nelly being Mark's wife feels better of me since she is his wife in the anime (and her cooking skills are terrible)

[TheModecular]

Just want to add some notes for the in-depth people out there:

While Tale does sum up generally most of the version exclusive differences in this video. He did leave out some bits like competition route teams (e.g. GO Shadow has The Sundancers and GO Light has The Sick Offs), version exclusive equipment and items (e.g. Werewolf Boots/Vampire Boots) and various competition route reward differences in which Tale covers in his competition route guide videos. 98% of version exclusive stuff is tradeable, even the W-Gene and V-Gene in GO 2!

There is also one key piece of information regarding IE 3 and that is the fact that in Team Ogre Attacks you are unable to get the Devil/Angel players. While they are tradable Bomb Blast and Lightning Bolt, you cannot get them in Ogre without hacking. So you get access to 11 more players in BB/LB and they’re generally considered better than Ogre’s players in the META. (Nenel, Arachne, Wenel, Ekadel and so on) - You do miss out on Bash Lancer and Radd Ischer but those 2 have just as good if not better alternative options anyway. So this kinda makes Bomb Blast/Lightning Bolt the better version for competitive play!

[axelsaunfrost]

Chronostone lets you recruit both Bailong and Sol in the postgame regardless of version. I got thunder, so played the story with Bailong, then I got the pleasant surprise of being able to recruit Sol and since I had too many forwards already I transfered all his stats to defense+technique and it's a beast. But instead the exclusive I got which you don't mention was Chou Ryuun, the mountain forward with most kick in the game (tied with another with worse stats I believe)

[logantitan]

great choice on the thumbnail ;)

Also I feel like the IE2 marketing and the title song looked like it was setting up a rivalry between Axel and Shawn. Especially with them running at each other and then colliding. Whilst now I know it was hinting to crossfire, I didn't understand this for years as crossfire needs the Wi-Fi download which I never got until a few days ago and I hadn't watched the anime.

also versions I would choose/chose first

Firestorm, Team Ogre (or bomb blast between the first 2 versions), Light (but after this video I should play shadow at some point), Thunderflash and Supernova.
