Mhmmmm, it's the Pokemon Origins version of Red, I believe (I didn't watch the whole video, skipped a lot). And I think it's also the Red before he faced Mewtwo but somehow obtained the mega evolution, lol. He seemed naive, childish and not the Pokemon Master he is. Some time paradox or something...
Digimon more on plot(Can even make the child me cry) ... Pokemon its like Dora the Explorer(Red) always with Boots(Charizard)... When Agumon and others digivolves, they make that rotation and spinning stuff? Then turn to big ones... I also did that LOL
While I can't say every season was great, I did like how things are changed up with new mechanics and stuff in Digimon. Pokemon has some but they are like tweaks, nothing grand. It's literally just a never ending replay.
I thought Joe was meant to be portrayed as reliable in 01? He even had that whole struggle subplot that I forgot what it was about. Wikia says 02 referred to it as honesty but was taken down. I dunno
