Great run! Scizor has such a cool design :D

[@SteveMPlays]

It does, and it was cool to test out a pokemon I've never been able to even consider using before.

[@bateltheassistant]

Nice! Your intro has reminded me of how much me and my brother were trying to get one without trading 😂, we've trained a scyther up to level 100 while it was holding an up guard. That's why whenever I have a chance to get a Scizor I always try to get it for my nuzlockes.😊 By the way I think that there are 2 copies of tm 47, steel wing, one in Rock Tunnel near by Lavender Town, and the second near by Mount Sliver. 🤔 I think that fury cutter could have helped as second stab option if you'd like to use a different move onter then return, because with the power of swords dance that could one shot everything, if you've managed to get it to hit all the time, just like Red's pikachu 😂😂😂, yeah rng has sometimes its own ways to mess up a well thought out plan.

[@SteveMPlays]

I understand the feeling of over-training. One of my greatest memories is training a graveler (one of my all time most played) to level 84 BEFORE THE ELITE 4 because I wanted golem that badly. So it was in victory road.

[@bateltheassistant]

@@SteveMPlays wow, that must have been such a disappointment to find out that you were wasting your time for that one, even though as a kid that was fun time regardless I really liked playing gen 2 back in the day

[@SteveMPlays]

It happens, it's part of the reason why the games became so popular. You have to ask friends or buy a guide book.

[@bateltheassistant]

@@SteveMPlays my brother found out about the trade evolution pokemon form a friend, after doing all of this grinning 😅😂. And about the guide book, in the town that I was growing up in, the stores weren't selling it, so up until recently I didn't knew these were excited in first place. 🤔

[@SteveMPlays]

The guide book was basically bulbapedia, I knew one guy that had one. But I only saw him during recess.

[@doctorbright1065]

Fun video, though I should mention that Pidgeots whirlwind nonsense could have been stopped by putting your HM slaves in the PC box.

[@SteveMPlays]

That is absolutely right, in a perfect world I would have don't that. But honestly I don't really think of these kinds of things when I play. It's just gotta get done fast and what do I do next?

[@doctorbright1065]

@SteveMPlays Emtirely fair. And being completely honest, I likely wouldn't have realised this, had I not endured the same issue myself, XD.

[@SteveMPlays]

Honestly, it never crossed my mind either. In gen 1 I get to laugh at pokemon using roar and whirlwind.

[@doctorbright1065]

@SteveMPlays Honestly I'd decided to do an Umbreon only run after playing Sun&Moon for a while, so I just completely forgot that I even had HM slaves, due to lack of need in Sun&Moon.

[@SteveMPlays]

Oh that would be cool, not only do I still have them, with the randomizers I have to actually know which ones can learn what. Also some versions learn different ones, like charizard with fly and digglett with cut in yellow but not blue.

[@darkmoonjared7655]

Gonna be a good run.

[@SteveMPlays]

Thanks, it had a lot of highs and lows.

[@Speedrunner0218]

I think you might be saving reversal for jasmine

[@SteveMPlays]

That's totally right, it's a good thing that it's a physical move, cause 20 power would be useless if special, even if super effective.

[@Untidycloud]

it was the shiny purple skiploon that got me this time!

[@SteveMPlays]

I love the purple and blue shinies, because they're so drastically different.

[@Speedrunner0218]

Can't wait

[@SteveMPlays]

Hope it was worth it.

[@onlinebully8637]

Do you think the shiny effects add up in time for the run or does it not change anything?

[@SteveMPlays]

Oh it certainly adds up to a minute or two, but it's not like I'm comparing myself to others. Especially since many others have lots of rules for or against stuff like hidden power
