The prize for beating the Trainer Tower on knockout mode in firered/leafgreen is a metal coat, in case you don't wanna do the thief thing. Also I got my first gold medal, I beat the battle dome yesterday (09/20)
You have one of the most unique Pokémon content out there right know, your focus on the essentials is so cool people forgot the basics, the atmosphere writting down on the papers without third party programes contrast the way people prefer a fast-pace videos overstimulated, in a world of tik tok type of content this is revitalizing, it has more substance.
@nostalgicnighthawk3 ай бұрын
i prefer to watch and create these slower more chill paced videos. The intense and fast paced content has a place but its too much for me! I think some things dont need to be min/maxed you know. Somethings just need to be enjoyed/appreciated for what its worth! Very happy you and others like the vids!
@MycketTuff3 ай бұрын
The older I get the more I need relaxing content between the faster paced stuff. Can't watch anything with people who yell. Even taken some of my older favorite games and started running them extremely long term. The seasonal rinse and repeat action has no depth to me. It's great to find channels like this and it's about time I subscribed

True, we live life on fast forward and no longer just sit and live in the moment. I prefer the long/slower content with pokemon stuff as well. No need to rush through your thoughts to hope you maintain viewer retention.

It's crazy how finally the algorithm has led me to you. I 've been playing sapphire and firered all summer, without even realizing it's been 20 years since firered's release. I am older than you, so replaying firered brings nostalgia from the original red when I was a kid, only the 3rd gen is my favourite so I am feeling SO good doing it. Trying to complete the pokedex in firered (sitting at 380) and listening to music and documenting my ev training and movesets on paper, just like you. I don't have emerald to test teams at the battle frontier but i'm having lots of fun at the orre colosseum at pokemon colosseum's battle mode, esp the double battles. Oh, and as I was resetting for Rayquaza's nature I got blessed with a Shiny too, only in my 4th reset! When I was a kid, I'd never imagine that as a grown man I would witness him in Colosseum in all his mighty glory, so I guess I got a win for younger me :) Keep it up, you are awesome

Nice video! That team you're working on is definitely for the patient, so much fun to build something from scratch that isn't used by everybody though. Kingdra is a beast - don't feel bad, haha, I'm working on a team right now too of Ampharos, Vileplume, and Kingdra for the Pike/Pyramid. It's tough after those first two sets to lock in cause you've been spamming and one shotting most stuff up to that point, and its such a punishment when you lose your streak to be back trudging through NFEs lol. But, your team is TUFF so keep at it! Looking forward to seeing more, love your style.

I know you don’t use emerald’s duplication glitch on TMs, but hidden power can give really useful coverage.

I'll work with you on a budget or whatever. No pressure or anything, just thought I'd throw it out there.
