Ok so no one is gonna praise the intro that coincides with the anime opening intro? It’s almost identical just with Pokémon let’s go clips. This is amazing work. I salute you good sir.

[@juanzilla6436]

Sorry but I didn't see pikachu riding a pidgeotto into the sunset at the end of the intro.

[@webkinzpuppylover447]

It’s the trailer for the game by Nintendo

[@Caassiopeia]

While in a battle, I was sure my Ivysaur would faint from a strong attack, but a somehow it had a tiny sliver of health left when a message appeared that basically said Ivysaur toughed through it so I wouldn't be sad. I was actually shocked. Now I love my Ivysaur above the rest

[@scoutnighthunter5845]

Same! I was battling Misty for the 2nd time and was one hit from losing when my Bellsprout toughed it out for me, winning the fight. I have loved that Bellsprout ever since.

[@02_mokai80]

I’ve been playing Pokémon since gameboy color jeez how it’s grown. I bought the ninetendo switch with both eevee and Pikachu because I love Pokémon too much, it’s my absolute childhood

[@RZA36]

noice!!

[@aikopot]

I love when my pokemons stay «alive» so that I don’t “get sad”. The cutest thing ever and they sometime dodge attacks kehsiakdbskdks isjsnsksksj i love my kids

[@singularity4980]

AikooPot did you have a stroke at the end of writing this?

[@pip5188]

I hate it when my Pokemon stays alive when it should faint. The game is easy enough already

[@ThePurpleJOfficial]

Shiny hunting tip: collect all pokémon in the dex (not including Mew, Meltan, Melmetal) and you can go somewhere to collect a Shiny Charm. While having a catch combo of at least 31, using a Shiny Charm, and using a lure, the shiny odds are about 1 in 300!

[@cody_king1994]

if they do pokemon gold and silver for the switch i would die a happy man lol

[@michaeldillon4971]

Honestly, with how well sales are with Let's go I wouldn't be surprised if we get that in a few years. I'm with you though!

[@torontogothraplive2153]

They have crystal

[@jeebus9192]

Strange music 👌

[@vasilisa1866]

Sinnoh would be cool too

[@devingilliam5601]

Make one of the starters Teddiursa.

[@DigitalMonsters]

3:20 implying you can actually load in a save and keep your chain going... if the software is closed your chain breaks...

[@ReallyTiny1UP]

@Steve they did. "...saving every 5 [...] so you don't have much to catch up" That basically means "screw the chain and just reload a save" And that doesn't work

[@Zoofyz]

ITS so cringey like OOOf even my non playing pokemon Lets go friend knew it

[@adlanti-definitionleague8659]

Yeah i heard that and immediately scrolled down

[@Lesandwish]

@Steve they just tried badly to say "save often to not lose the xp of chains"

[@nickolashumphery2822]

Matthieu Riviere it was on the shiny tip and chaining is how you catch shinies easier

[@citrusmelody459]

Great video. But when combo chaining it doesn't help to save the game more often: if you restart the game, the chain breaks.

[@likealightning4139]

In all my years of pokemon since pokemon ruby, and every pokemon game ever since, I encountered my first shiny in Let's go Eevee. And it popped up out of nothing (no combo). I was like "why does this metapod look so weird? Is that a new feature like the huge/tiny thing?" before it dawned on me its a shiny.

[@RevAustin68]

likealightning congrats it’s an addicting feeling

[@kanoalynch7257]

Ah your first shiny, truly an astounding moment

[@likealightning4139]

kanoa lynch yeah, after 15 years of playing Pokémon I kinda gave up hope already

[@JamesHealeyTX]

I swear I remember finding a shiny Pokémon in Gold or Silver but I can't remember what is was (it wasn't the red Gyrados), but I don't think I was able to successfully catch it, and at the time, I didn't know what a shiny Pokémon was (this was when I was a lot younger and before I looked it up online). I have yet to even seen a shiny Pokémon since.

[@kanoalynch7257]

James Healey you could always wondertrade but you don't get the same satisfaction as catching it yourself

[@KixCamelotMain]

The fact you pretty much remade the original opening with gameplay is going to make me cry

[@Goateatthecheeseburger]

I love how he recreated the Pokemon theme visually in let's go I honestly think this is amazing

[@shawn14isme]

I really would like to acknowledge and praise the quality of this video. You diddnt waste my time with a four minute intro talking about your patreon, or your new microphone. Straight to the point with actually useful information. I really appreciate that. I would love to see a video dedicated to capturing stronger pokemon. Since (and i hope im wrong) there is no breeding in this game, which means i cant vreed endlessly for a 6 IV pokemon.

[@RockBandRS]

Streaking Pokemon is how you increase the chance of 6 iv Pokemon.

[@torontogothraplive2153]

60% was useful. The rest was incorrect info lol

[@torontogothraplive2153]

@@RockBandRS cant catch 6 iv pokemon even with catch combo of 100+. 5iv plus very good 6th iv is the highest you can catch

[@williamknight60]

Dastardw that was just luck, the highest max Ivs you can guarantee on a Pokemon is 4 with a catch combo of 31

[@torontogothraplive2153]

@@williamknight60 i dont get any 4s. Only 5s and 6 ivs

[@KelliMarissa]

Very helpful tips, I am wondering if its worth it to catch all pokemon I see in the grass or if its better to exclusively do combos?

[@navarogl4892]

combos for sure!

[@Sasha1632o]

Combos. Exp bonus!

[@commanderbly327thlegion4]

I just catch everything i see

[@flapbonko59]

We also had the bonding thing in Sun and Moon, so Pokemon could crit and wake up/get unpoisoned because it loves you so much

[@fourdoorsmoresmores]

0:28 Thank you for recreating the theme song in the into. The Tentacruel is when I noticed

[@ShinyCramorant]

it's from the official channel.

[@cormorantcolors6791]

Lucky? Please. I’d like to tell you the Graveler story. I was in a side cave in Rock Tunnel. It was a (vertically) long room, with a ladder at the top. I went to the bottom to see if there was any sort of item. There were Onix, Geodude, and Graveler running around. I see sparkles peeking through the top of the screen. My Ultra Moon brain runs up, as I think it’s an item. I get to it, and I see a golden Graveler. I was *STOKED.* I knew that, because of predetermined encounters, I was quite likely to see a shiny. Still, I ran into it before it could disappear. For some stupid reason, I thought a berry would waste a turn the same way a failed Pokéball would. I used an Ultra Ball to get a nice throw. No dice. I took a picture of it as it got out, so it turned out peeking from the top of the screen. Exactly how I first encountered it. A second Ultra ball, a second nice throw, a second failure. *The wild Graveler ran away* That’s what I get for calling the shiny ugly four years ago?

[@MrPapasvhilly]

During combo grinding just use ultra balls or great balls and if they break out. Run away immediately before they potentially do it to you cause you running away doesn't break the combo chain . And if you struggle throwing pokeballs with the switch motion play on game pad which makes throwing pokeballs easy .

[@SnowWolfAlpha]

I ran into a shiny Geodude just by chance while trying to get through Mt Moon for the first time. I'm so happy you can see them in the overworld.

[@tc1038]

Cool! Thanks for the tips

[@mouadjaafari8509]

thank you so much it help me a lot😁👍🏻

[@tvo8977]

Also it's worth noting that once you hit your 31 combo catch your odds for catching a shiny will not get any higher... so unless you want the exp or candy's you're good to just run around until a shiny spawns.

[@thebirdwizard5947]

Or high IV Mons as the higher the chain the better they are

[@flarion8242]

new evidence shows that there are old pokemon and new so when you leave and come back the same pokemon can be saved in that decreasing the pokemon in chances

[@tvo8977]

@@flarion8242 that made absolutely no sense.

[@flarion8242]

@@tvo8977 i know it doesn't it was a statement from the developers tho i really don't understand what they mean but it it was from the developers. it just means that it will take longer to shiny hunt until a new method is found

[@Duckybacca]

After 31 ur shiny rate is 1 in 341.3 i believe

[@furiousgaming453]

I bonded with my gengar somehow, he got killed by an earthquake or so I thought because he lived it with 1 hp. Then in the next turn, my snorlax used surf which also hit my gengar but he survived that with 1 hp too

[@Talik13]

Combo catching isn't the only way to lower your chances. You can get the Shiny Charm from the Game Director in Celadon when you complete your Pokedex. It increases your chances from 1 in 4,096 to 1 in 1,365

[@Jaywin228]

Dang that's op lol. Will keep this in mind

[@jojipy8309]

That Theme Song gave me Nostalgia.... AGAIN :)

[@sabonuniverse6730]

I got a shiny arbok and tentacruel from catch combos and using a lure, as well as being patient, some pokemon are harder to raise the combo, it helps to find what type of ball is the most efficient

[@catography4164]

Helpful video, thanks.

[@juancarloslozadagalaviz101]

Loved the intro!

[@Maliviolent]

3:57 that is where i caught my first 2 shiny pokemon (Growlithe and Jigglypuff)

[@internetcitizen4289]

2 extra pro tips: once a day you can collect 2 heartscales at the arctos island. once a day you can collect a gold bottle cap at casino and a silver bottle cap at the ship haven in 3.rd arena town. the bottle caps are used to max out pokemon ivs of your lvl 100 pokemon.

[@CHRIS3PHX]

“Having a good technique, whatever that means. “ I felt that

[@Iamwolf134]

In short, do not underestimate just how powerful bonding with your partner can be in Pokemon, especially with the Let's go series. It's been really rewarding for me in pokemon sun single player. By the way, the only way that I can be a really happy camper is when GF makes their new trading system compatible with the Let's go series (Pokemon Go by extension) as well as the main series.

[@klassik562]

Yo that intro was Dope af

[@GTylker]

You can also use lures and the shiny charm for better shiny chanses

[@TricolorJester1]

Correction to 1 of your statements.. saving doesnt save your catch combo... I had a combo of 12 on rhydon and closed out my game, started it back up and had no combo

[@cairneoleander8130]

The opening just makes me think of that Pokemon alla Puccini video 😂

[@LOLeePop11]

I got a shiny zubat randomly! No combos or anything, it just popped up 😱😬

[@darthnihilusthelordofhunge6597]

I did a catch combo on caterpie, and around 41 I caught 2 shiny caterpie

[@ceresbane]

huh... i started out doing combos on ratata on my playthrough... seems i should farm perfect IV pokemon later when I actually have the tool to know if a pokemon has good IVs.

[@adambroadbent1990]

Nice tips

[@xaviergonzalez44]

Very helpful, I really need to grind my Pokémon :(

[@welterdavin5486]

great choice

[@3phyr0s58]

I caught a shiny Magikarp once with a 10 catch combo It was cool

[@basicallyimasavage2208]

0:00 who's the cover artist?

[@levistokes3960]

I honestly didn’t think I would like let’s go Pikachu and eevee. I just finished Pokémon shield and loved it and just started let’s go. It has actually grown on me. I never really got into Pokémon go but know how it works. And don’t have the poke ball plus. I hope everything can level up properly without pokeball plus but it’s so much easier than any other Pokémon game I’ve played so far.

[@timothytaylor495]

I shiny hunted for a zubat once, i found one before the max combo catch, thats how common it is.

[@TheGir4545]

Just realised that you guys made the intro video the same as the anime opening XD

[@toffilicious7315]

Please send me the link of the version of the Pokemon Themesong on this video. Thank you

Is there natures and EVs in this one? If yes to natures, can you breed?

Best looking pokemon game without a doubt

[@PhantomGaming-hi6lx]

Did you forget about pokemon arceus

[@pikababe__]

What do you do with multiple Pokemon you have? Do they turn into rare candy?

[@iwillbejudge]

Um I kinda got a bellsprout shiny 1st and 3rd bellspout I caught the other 3 I didn’t + lures increase the chances which might have had some effect but still gold leaf on number 6

[@Ghost7065]

Where can I get this version of the original intro song for the anime?

[@ballthatrolls6120]

BTW, you can also increase chances of shinies with shiny charm

holy f"n props on recreating the opening if the anime through the lets go game

[@illdanceforwindex2070]

Eyy I got my shiny ponder through the Safari aswell

[@sarakeyser7535]

How do you get by the sleeping snorlax in pokemon let's go pikachu

[@SamuelWaggoner]

1. Bonding with your buddy lands you sure-hit moves. 2. Everything contributes to your total xp during your catch. 3. Always catch huge or tiny Pokemon over normal ones. 4. Shiny Pokemon exist. 5. Wait in the long grass. 6. Don't worry about catching Charmander, Bulbasaur, or Squirtle. 7. Keep your eyes peeled for Professor Oak's aides. 8. Talk to everyone you find. 9. You can get Alolan pokemon through in-game trades.

[@StankPlanks]

Cheers mate. Nice vid. Finding it hard to get into the game, it feels very repetitive.

[@mikelcrmrs9257]

How do you choose between Pikachu and Eevee? Just personal preference?

[@nickamos7763]

31 catch chain only increases shiny odds of the chained pokemon. Huge and tiny size variants only increase the exp modifier not the stats of the pokemon. Running from a pokemon, even the pokemon you are chaining, will not break your chain, only catching another pokemon, closing the application, or having the chained pokemon run from you will break it.

[@folo2007]

No, 31 will improve every shiny but it will be much easier to get that. Cause you will get that pokemon more often

[@bajanhawk2398]

I know this is old but this is false because I got two shiny gravelers, a shiny ryhorn, a shiny snorlax and a shiny golbat from a chancy catch combo

[@V1CT1MIZED]

I got the game today and caught a shiny Geodude, talk about luck! Got a charmander too!

[@Rene-vg4xz]

Nice

[@Jay-mt6nu]

Who sung the intro here...it ain't Jason...but it's still damn good

[@2JMambo]

Let’s go is awesome.. I’d like them to keep the Pokémon roaming around md spawning in every Pokémon game.. I used to get tired of running into a dozen caterpies in veridian forest because I couldn’t see them.. just got a shiny caterpie in let’s go and didn’t have to waste time going through many of them

[@delicam2963]

Love the background music

[@delicam2963]

In the begining

[@Lulu-bz9ib]

What IVs do you get on the Alolan pokemon traded from NPCs? Are the IVs fixed, random, or dependent on the pokemon that I am trading away?

[@reefermon7048]

Lulu not sure I wonder if you can get perfect Ivs but mine are really good 3 best and very good for the others

[@torinpk5752]

I’ve already caught two shiny Pokemon in about an hour and I didn’t have a catch multiplyer the first was a bell sprout and the second was a Nidoran Female

Incorrect about saving when shiny hunting.. when you re-start the game it breaks the chain.. unfortunately there’s no way to save it

[@ninja_tony]

all you have to do is put your console in sleep mode instead of turning it off. As long as you do that, and don't close the game itself, the chain will continue when you return to the game.

[@Klutzybear]

Wait. . . Did you just do the Pokemon intro with "Let's GO" visuals? 'Cause either that was a huge coincidence, or you're just THAT dedicated. Either way, well done. LOL!
