GIGANTAMAX Pokemon Battle Royale ???? Collab With @Lockstin & Gnoggin (Loud Sound Warning)
The Galar region just became one giant kaiju fighting pit, and only one Pokémon walks away.
TerminalMontage closed out Season 4 of his Pokémon Battle Royale series on January 21, 2022, with “GIGANTAMAX Pokemon Battle Royale 💥 Collab With @Gnoggin (Loud Sound Warning),” the fifth installment in the animator’s tournament format and his first built entirely around the Gigantamax forms from Pokémon Sword & Shield. The short teams up with lore YouTuber Lockstin of Gnoggin, whose companion breakdown video explains why each elimination shakes out the way it does. Every kaiju-sized Gigantamax form gets dropped onto one continent, and the animation lets them tear through it until a single survivor is left standing.
- Eternamax Eternatus opens the battle by disintegrating every non-Gigantamax Pokémon with a Jurassic Park-referencing blast (“You didn’t say the magic word!”) before leaving the fight entirely.
- The undercard includes Kingler dissolving Butterfree’s wings with acid bubbles, Rapid Strike Urshifu pummeling Snorlax, and G-Max Gengar luring Charizard and Eevee into its mouth before Garbodor takes it down.
- The final showdown pits Rapid Strike Urshifu against Lapras in a fight built around “Steamed Hams” and “Beavis and Butt-Head Do America” gags, ending with Lapras delivering Mr. Freeze’s “Batman & Robin” line and freezing half the planet to win.
Eternatus Sets the Tone and Bails
The battle royale wastes no time establishing stakes. Eternamax Eternatus, the form Pokémon Sword & Shield reserves for its final boss fight, wipes out every Pokémon on the continent that hasn’t Gigantamaxed, quoting Jurassic Park’s Mr. Arnold before the blast lands. It’s a joke with a built-in exit: because Eternamax is technically a different transformation from Gigantamax, Eternatus disqualifies itself and leaves the actual Gigantamax roster to fight over what’s left of the map.
That setup clears the board for the chaos TerminalMontage’s series is known for. Kingler dissolves Butterfree’s wings with acid bubbles in one of the animation’s quicker kills, while Rapid Strike Urshifu works over Snorlax, who responds by using G-Max Replenish on its own vomit — a gag that lands exactly as gross as it sounds. G-Max Gengar spends its stretch of the fight luring Charizard and Eevee into its mouth with spectral illusions before Garbodor finally puts it down.
The Urshifu-Lapras Final
The last two Pokémon standing are Rapid Strike Urshifu and Lapras, and their fight is where the Gnoggin collaboration pays off — Lockstin’s companion video walks through why the outcome tracks with actual Sword & Shield mechanics rather than just animator whim. Urshifu opens with G-Max Rapid Flow specifically to get around Lapras’s Max Guard, then asks for any last words before going for the kill.
What killed the dinosaurs? THE ICE AGE!
Lapras answers with Mr. Freeze’s line from Batman & Robin and unloads an ice blast big enough to bury half the planet in snow, taking Urshifu down and closing the battle as the tournament’s sole survivor. The exchange leans on “Steamed Hams” and Beavis and Butt-Head Do America for its rhythm, keeping the finale’s tone consistent with the slapstick that opened it.
Post-Credits Scene Story Implications
TerminalMontage tacks on a post-credits stinger that has nothing to do with who won: Mega Mawile, Mega Banette, and a Baby Kangaskhan climb inside the mouth Gengar used earlier to trap its victims, and find an original, bloated Alakazam sitting in front of a bank of monitors playing footage from the previous TerminalMontage battle royales. It’s a nod to the four seasons that came before this one and a reminder that the format — like the lore breakdowns Gnoggin channel regulars know from videos digging into game mechanics the way Game Theory does with FNAF’s Security Breach — thrives on viewers who track the running gags across entries.
Lockstin’s own upload, built specifically to explain why Lapras’s Max Guard-piercing loss and Urshifu’s G-Max Rapid Flow shook out the way they did, is the natural next stop for anyone who wants the mechanical justification behind the joke — and with Season 4 now closed out, the obvious question for TerminalMontage’s audience is which Pokémon generation gets dropped onto the next continent.
