>5 out of 6 pokemon is weak to electric attacks

If somebody ask who the 5th pokemon is, it's Jolteon since it clearly has a weakness to electric attacks. How else would it get OHKO by a Ryhorn's thunderbolt?

>Level 1 faints in one hit

OP confirmed for not knowing that sheer overpowering force is also a factor, and that Red's team was 5/6 shit.

Anyone find it funny how Blue had no electric pokemon on his team?

Jolteon is a Electric (type) Pokémon.
Electric (type) is weak to Earth (type) Pokémon.
>>
>>25528101
Hes got like a Magneton in Yellow I think if he doesnt have a Jolteon.
>>
>>25528078
Since you get eevee at level what, 25? And that ryhorn shouldn't be a level over 60 it would still not be possible to OHKO it.
>>
>>25528130
>in Yellow
Which is why he doesn't have one
>>
>>25528138
Why can't it be 100? They made a point of it not being Giovanni's usual gym battle pokemon.

>level 100 rhyhorn
top meme
>>
>>25528034

His team is pretty decent I would say, he uses pokemon that are well known and the lesser used pokemon like persian and dodrio.
>>
>>25528034
A level 80 Rhyhorn can take down a Level 25 Jolteon with a crit Thunderbolt.

Since Giovanni used his own personal pokemon rather than the gym pokemon, and mentioned Red's pokemon being underlevelled due to relying too much on Charizard, this is the answer.

It's not some absurd Level 100 beast, it's powerful but within the realm of reason.
>>
4/6
>>
>>25528231
That Charizard must have been level 100 by then to take out his ace with NVE attacks

>>25528231
>>25528259
Or maybe it's an anime, so it doesn't strictly follow game mechanics. I know Origins stuck a little closer than the main anime, but still.

>>25528240
Thank you. WTF is he talking about. Persian along with Jolteon isn't weak to Electric.
>>
>>25528300
Yeah, the only way for Jolteon to be OHKO'd by an Electric attack is if Red was unlucky enough to get an Eevee with a HA.

Did you even read rest of the post and see it was satire?

You gotta post the webm OP otherwise people won't get it.

When they follow game mechanics to the point of Pokemon having an HP bar, then the suspension of disbelief is kind of broken...

Fuck my sweet little asshole this hurts to watch again.

I don't know about anybody else, but I got fuckin' jazzed when Red opened with Victreebel. That initial rush with the sharpened leaves is super cool, I thought for 100% sure I was about to see a badass fight.

And then, in true Pokemon anime fashion, they absolutely mercilessly cuck you as hard as they could have possibly conceived.

>Victreebel dies in one hit
"Well FUCK, that's some bullshit."
>sends in Kabutops
"Oh nice! Kabutops! Another cool first gen Pokemon we haven't gotten to see much action from. Let's see what he can do."
>tanks the first hit
"Now HERE's a battle, get him Kabutops!"
>lol nope Thunderbolt Kabutops is dead too
".....the Rhyhorn knows THUNDERBOLT?! This is retarded."
>Snorlax comes out
>Giovanni is even like "oh shit a Snorlax"
>big ol hyper beam blast
"FUCK YES WE GOT HIM NOW GO SNORLAX"
>LOL HORN DRILL
"...w-wha.."
>sends out Jolteon
"Okay uh, maybe, uh"
>LOL WHAT ARE GROUND TYPE MOVES THUNDERBOLT WILL SURELY TAKE CARE OF THIS
"........"
>Jolteon actually fucking dies in one hit
"....................."

I turned it off as soon as Charizard hit the battlefield. These incompetent fucks will never trick me into a Charizard circlejerk again. It's not even debatable at this point that Pokemon animes will always be ten thousand percent garbage.
>>
>>25528231
Sure, then Charizard was also level 100 and Rhydon had 100 or less HP since it was one-shotted with a Seismic Toss. :^)
>>
>>25528721
>HP bar
>implying pokemon earth doesnt have the tech to measure how long until a pokemon loses their consiousness in a fight.

I just recently watched Pokemon origins and this post describes my feelings perfectly.

You should've kept watching. Charizard got stomped by Nidoqueen.

Got Mega Punched first. I like to imagine it was a crit.
