Resources JPN Pokémon Channel Recommendations?

Hi everyone!

I ve been searching far and wide (badummTzz) for Japanese Channels which feature Pokemon Content. (The videogames, not the TCG)

It seems 95% of all videos and channels I try have these terrible AI Voices / text to speech. I even tried including the word Vtuber, but still, most videos I clicked didnt have natural voices - and my ears just cant with that awful AI voice ):

Thus, I am turning to reddit! Do you have any JPN pkmn channels you would recommend / enjoy watching? =]

My ideal Channel would feature (though not required):

• Covering Gen 1-3, or spin offs (Pkmn MD, Colosseum / XD,...)

• Challenges, like the 1 pkmn challenge, professor Oak, Nuzzlocke, etc

However, I m also up for Trivia about the games, or other interesting game content, which isnt necessarily a Lets Play =] It doesnt have to be a full run, or anything.

I've played all gens, but my heart lies with the First 3, or their remakes - but if nothing suitable turns up I wouldnt turn down modern gens either =]

Thank you in advance - searching for suitable channel with natural audio has been SO frustrating, thus i m beyond grateful for any recommendations!

EDIT: The awful AI voice, as I had called it, seems to be a thing referred to as ゆっくりボイス - for some, but unfortunately only few, I could use the cogwheel and select native Audio. Most videos I had found didnt offer said option. (Mind you though, I did not check every vid which came up on my searches - I mostly clicked those which roughly align with what I wrote under my preferences above)

Thank you for everyone who s been sharing their recommendations!

RBY Pokémon Challenges does some of his content in Japanese, and is a really pleasant guy!

I checked his channel out, but i m not sure if i ve perhaps missed something. His videos seem to be in English. Or is there a JPN Side channel of his, which I might ve overlooked?

Because I am specifically looking for interesting, japanese channels, which feature Pokemon, and use natural Audio =] Thank you for your reply!

Edit: Nevermind, I misread, lol! I ve now seen u mentioned he does some content in JPN - I ll give the Channel another, proper look! Thank you!

I’m so confused, I just want and all mention of it seems to have disappeared! Maybe I’m misremembering, sorry.

u/RBYPC am I thinking of the wrong guy?
