Always enjoy watching your speedruns purely because I could never have the skill or motivation to ever sit down and run this RNG fest the game can end up being :D. Keep it up as always!

[@nowseemefly]

Motivation comes with personal enthusiasm. Different people are enthusiastic about different things. For one, I am an enthusiastic sleeper

[@tylerd1297]

battle Factory is the embodiment of that. extremely different than just a regular run with consistent strategies and opponents.

[@malachihill8677]

Congrats on another World record. I like these full speedruns, especially the difficult and unforgiving moments.

[@jacobyounce3223]

that team going up to battle 42 was just insane

[@teranrodriguez]

Seeing this has given me faith to get the gold print from the Battle Factory, Battle Tower and Battle Hall on my Pokemon Platinum game. It’s just been so frustrating having to deal with RNG. I had an easier time getting all the trophies at Battle Maison in Omega Ruby. But then again, easier breeding mechanics, not-so difficult EV training and mega evolutions were a thing as well.

[@tylerd1297]

It should be clear by now that Werster has an impressive attention span. But man, the Battle Factory in both HG and Emerald is exhausting for me to play. I was addicted to it but I had to take breaks and didn't play more than a few sets at a time usually. I'm sitting here watching this slow and thinking from the perspective that I'm playing and I'm feeling the same way.

[@zan1971]

After past few days watching clips about Werster getting crit and confused we can finally see what was going on lol

[@Totomeister]

48:09 Battle 21: Silver Plate 2:08:57 Battle 49: Gold Plate

[@Q-TebGamesNL]

What are those?

[@Totomeister]

@@Q-TebGamesNL Plates are likes the badges you get for defeating a Frontier Brain.

[@Q-TebGamesNL]

@@Totomeister idk why but they always stop me when I completed 7 rounds so idk how to fight the frontier brain

[@Totomeister]

@@Q-TebGamesNL It's always in sets of 7. If you lose once, you start over. Doing 21 battles in row means you get to battle for a Silver Plate. 49 battles in a row gets you the Gold Print/Plate/Medal whatever you wanna call it. You just can't lose once, or you are back at square 1.

[@Q-TebGamesNL]

@@Totomeister ohhhhhh now it makes more sense... Thanks a lot!

Werster could speedrun the Pokemon VGC World Championship, but he chooses to have mercy on everyone else.

gotta love it when people turn on their mic with no intention of using it, just so you can hear them fumble around with the thing for the entire video "knock" "fumble" "oandnduwokwnrhxusn"

[@DKQuagmire]

I didn't know there was a battle frontier, speed run category, where you didn't have to start the game with ZERO BADGES. This is a whole new experience for me!

[@MattS-eh6fw]

Its not an official category, werster is just doing this cos hes a badass. He did the same thing with emerald a few years ago

[@DKQuagmire]

@@MattS-eh6fw ah. ok. thank you

[@minutosdesapercibidosesp-e4508]

@@MattS-eh6fw Werster haves enough influence on the Pokemon Speedrun Community to simply create new categorys, i mean a lot of pokemon running rules exist because of him and categorys have been separated or created because mostly him, after this run people could run the category and would eventually get its own tab in Speedrunning.com records, and Battle factory no manip is such a Hard RNG based speedrun but its also fun and doesnt need manip or training so i can deff see it being played a lot

[@Loner098]

It more or less exists in the "Category Extensions" of Heart Gold & Soul Silver.

[@loweffortmusic]

I like how Professor Elm calls right after to congratulate Werster on this massive dub

[@robopiplup5193]

Love me some factory. I've loved using rentals since playing Stadium, just always remember wishing that one had actual good monsters. RNG still gonna pull bullshit outta nowhere, but it's much more enjoyable since there isn't blatant cheating happening in HGSS.

[@simonrichard3491]

1:48:50 you were extremely lucky on that one !

[@gillaaaboy]

Damn the legend back at it

[@Saddler46]

Really Amazing ! Thanks for all your hard work ! :D

[@DidgeridudeEX]

Interesting that throughout this factory run Werster uses Metagross/Latios/Swampert as some of his Pokémon choices- the same team he used to beat the Emerald Frontier!

[@nomis2268]

I mean those are great pokemon

[@AndrewBlechinger]

Water/Steel/Dragon is a solid backbone for a team, they're good individually, and they're great together.

[@M3rtyville]

1:46:22 Latias looks terrified at Granbull.

[@MapleMilk]

And to think this run came out of an early loss due to priority Swellow Crazy stuff

[@bobtheslob2246]

I was wondering when well get one of these. Love it!

[@yourlocalraccoondealer8611]

This is a great idea practice wise for the all prints speedrun, almost like IL runs in other games

[@ejr98]

Nice work Werster! Can't wait to see the All Gold Prints run completed when it finally happens. Are you going to try Factory Doubles manipless if you get more early Frontier losses and want to stream for longer? I noticed JTMagicman put it on his Pastebin but of course you don't battle Thorton or win prints in doubles. I'll just say as well, I had a really good Platinum Hall manipless run with Garchomp, got 169 and then Argenta had Weavile. :/

[@homme151]

Well done on the WR🙌🏼

[@Hibiki_Ganana]

This is so difficult, I always end up losing after 21 battles :'( There's a time I got almost this team 18:54 (with Cresselia instead of Arcanine). The only mon who could counter it was Weavile. Guess who I had to fight in the very first battle...

[@trulynotChinmay]

I love the idea of these! Would be awesome if you could do one for emerald's Battle Factory as well as your (no manip) runs from 2013 are some of my favs

[@tylerd1297]

Emerald is even harder than this one. He would most likely have to do Level 100 unlike his Frontier run where he did Level 50

hey werster! i was wondering what rng manipulation really implies. is there a way to reduce something like the chance of you being paralyzed by a tbolt?

[@SaltosAxe]

Not Werster, but I hang about in his stream fairly often. There's primary rng, which is influenced by the clock, your step counter, getting a phone call, the movement of npc's, etc. This is what determines what Pokes he encounters in the Frontier. Battle and encounter rng are based on a different, much more precise set of actions + all of the above.

[@ShartedEarlier]

@@SaltosAxe thanks bro! I always thought the elite four was the endgame for pokemon games, wasn't until i found this channel i realized there's a shit ton more.
