I caught 1 shiny Pokémon in 25 years whilst not subscribed to R9. Since subbing I have caught 6, you can't argue with results.

[@R9beats]

Damn with those odds I gotta subscribe to r9 😤

[@ClownShroomProductions]

​​​@@R9beats you aren't able to subscribe to your own channel, though every else should because this video was awsome

[@tonybrewer7536]

Got 2 randomly traded to me this week. Traded a Tauros for one and found one in go. It's been a good week

[@juju8285]

I have a shiny murkrow

[@marjoriejohnston4905]

I can, my shiny collection is pretty sweet.

[@Sam99823]

I still think it’s so crazy that Ash will no longer be the main character of the anime. I’m so happy he became the champion after over 20 years but still, he’ll be missed🥺❤️

[@R9beats]

the greatest pokemon trainer to ever do it 🙌

[@Trunch2]

He won the orange island league back in kanto

[@brevinbeard900]

​@Mixtape you know that doesn't count right?

[@Pickle_Juic3]

Don’t be sad cause it’s over be happy cause it happened 😢😢

[@Y_u_dum]

​@@Pickle_Juic3Take that Dr. Seuss quote and leave. He literally cheated on his wife

[@NCBlueOfficial]

JonTron Jr? Embarking on another shiny adventure? Hell yeah!

[@unoriginalname771]

I knew I couldn’t be only one who thinks they’re similar

[@joetheseventeenth]

funny how he never comments on the similarities, no hate i love both of their videos its just funny to me

[@TimmySCVM]

LITERALLY

[@shawnheatherly]

This could be a miserable challenge if you used Ash's worst Pokemon across the series. This was fun, a good way to honor the young man who wanted to be the very best, like no one ever was.

[@R9beats]

That's an idea I wanted to try some of the pokemon that define ash for me thou charizard and dragonite was 2 tempting 😂

[@SakuraFox957]

To catch them is my real test🎶

[@goatmartino]

this is exactly how i felt when i did a shiny only run in bdsp but all the shinies i used were from legends arceus so they wouldnt listen till after the third gym lmfaooo

[@R9beats]

Yeah I didn't realise how slow of a start I was in for 😂

[@jacobmunoz153]

"Has the AI of a toaster" Holy hell that made laugh hard 😂😂😂😂

[@Nani4587]

This was such a cool watch and impressive. I did chuckle at Pikachu vs Raichu part. Too bad Pikachu couldn’t come through. But you were able to replicate another battle with Gengar vs Raichu. Gengar did dominate against Raichu and the other electric Pokémon. Nothing was lost ^^

[@nishillipare1403]

This guy is just the shiny king ❤

[@R9beats]

Trying my best 👌 it takes time ⏲️

[@thecupheadmaniac1367]

I love shinies

[@carl4508]

We all do

[@FloofTheBoi]

Our boy R9Beats does NOT get enough credit, this man is the real pokemon master :)

[@RageofaNation]

Bro, I love this channel, energy, commentary and overall package. Gives me such nostalgic feelings of like jontron when he first started out. I'm here for it.

[@Amoebatirith]

Oh man, that shiny dragoinair just floating cracked me up so much.

[@R9beats]

That Pink Floating noodle is peak Pokemon animation😤

[@Skymaster106]

The fact that you don’t have 1 mil shocks me, you make super high quality videos, keep up the good work!

[@yuckybee2459]

banger of a video keep it up R9!

[@R7AWSUM]

I know it's limited by the BDSP roster, I just find it hilarious that you literally weren't allowed to bring almost* any of his cool mons on an "Ash" playthrough. That kid managed, for over two decades, to teach people how to play pokemon wrong. What a legend. *the almost refers to Dragonite. That thing will always be the GOAT. Take your puffed up Lame-izard and stuff it.

[@R9beats]

I could have used my lucario from arceus but it's lvl 100 so it's not much if a challenge after that! but the rest of his champion team is very limited I had other unused shinies that I litterwlly just forgot 😂

[@R7AWSUM]

@R9beats it's just good roleplay. I could totally see Ash having a mewtwo in the box and bringing Totodile instead because he believes in the heart of the cards or something

[@jackofnotrades4350]

i just found this poketron guy and im all for it

[@ElKuballo]

New to the channel...but let me be the first to say this man's commentary is phenomenal!

[@thecupheadmaniac1367]

It might have been a while, but i love your videos

[@R9beats]

We back 😎

[@TheExtremelyTiredDude]

Ghost exclamation mark

[@R9beats]

The goat 💀

[@alfiesmullet1311]

Cool video dude, must've taken a lot of work

[@johnny_crash]

Just started the video. Can‘t wait for you catching 30 Shiny Tauros.

[@HilaryWestfall]

Some hardcore pogo player is out there absolutely losing their shit after seeing you transfer that sunglasses Squirtle 😂 I loved how you brought in Charizard with the legendary. Great timing, it really worked well.

[@Zer0Creature]

that hardcore pogo player is me. i dont have that shiny sunglasses squirtle. this is torture lol

[@vanimagames7736]

Jontron, is that you?

[@SphealthatMunches]

When the world needed him most He came back

[@Pureo.]

So glad ash was 10 for 25 years for this beautiful video to be made

[@pimphandjesus4667]

I feel the Bulbasaur shiny hunt pain, finally got mine at a chain of 459 over way too long

[@evankernosek7727]

Another great video

[@craiglabillois]

The JonTron of pokèmon

[@XxMaxwellxX01]

My doctor prescribes me amphetamines to helped focus, idk if they're working

[@PolitoedFan9002]

17:34 that’s a thing in Pokémon sword too. The animators just don’t care bout poor dragonair.

[@GILLIGFAN]

5:58 I do believe SOME MOVES Deleted by HOME ARE Actually recoverable via The move remembering function

[@sarahmundell6760]

What a fun run this was. I'm also doing a fun (if you even wanna call it that) run in Shining Pearl - the 6 Smeargle Challenge. And I made it so my Rival will have Infernape. Them not listening to me is a real struggle tho

[@R9beats]

6 SMEARGLES!!? I wish you good luck now that's real patience right there 😂😂 nvm the fact they are traded in thats even more rough

[@gabrielgendron4745]

How can you send 6 smeargle to shining pearl? I tried to send a nincada to brilliant dimant with home but it was not compatible.

[@theaboy2]

Cool vidio

[@agyea]

doin a shiny run of bdsp and was condisering transferring from pla/sv but might do it later lmao

[@heather_garden8703]

Pokémon jontron is back

[@OTJourney]

first shiny i ever got was a krabby from a rock smash rock in pokemong gold... kinda surprised i remember it to cause i boxed that boy not knowing what a shiny was lol

[@pileofhazelnuts]

Im upset i didnt get recommended this video when it came out, youre like jontron but for pokemon with spot on jokes and i love your stuff

[@thecupheadmaniac1367]

Especially shiny pokemon videos

[@benmack4525]

Funny thing growing up I had a shiny rayquaza and didn’t no till I got older n turn the game back on

[@Sephiroth69]

R9 have you ever farmed for a shiny starter, in oras I'm trying to get a shiny mudkip in oras and it's been weeks

[@louiscallier6218]

Cool

[@MountedGhostRider71]

honestly would have been hilarious if you got everything EXCEPT noctowl shiny to truly create the anti-ash team.

[@pinkprincess6136]

I miss Ash I really want him to come back in Pokemon Horizons and I love your shinies by the way. Ash should have a whole team of shiny Pokemon.

[@justinlittle5437]

you sound so much like johntron

[@ShadyRK9]

Spent almost 5 months hatching the perfect Shiny Team for BD. Budew, Spiritomb, Sneasel, Shinx, Riolu, and Shellos with perfect egg moves only to find out that putting them into home into the game will delete the moves?! Why Gamefreak, WHY?! 💀

[@sharpdressedgoblin]

R9 is the number 1 gameboy and you know it's true

[@R9beats]

My batteries last much longer 😤 haven't ran dry yet

[@Melkweg7]

Bro sounds like JonTron

[@thelonleygengar]

I mean if your named after catching em all then it is your destiny

[@monkeymilk27]

i would let cynthia thunder shock me

[@R9beats]

😂😂😂

[@mannyblight6140]

Technically he did have dratini and gastly when dialgs devolved them all the way down stage by stage to eggs

[@Otopulas2020]

What about Pokémon yellow where you literally get ash’s pickachu and the 3 starters through side quest but no that to easy

[@R9beats]

No shiny pokemon In pokemom yellow but that was so cool as a kid to play yellow as basically ash 🔥

[@hanniballittle5508]

DBZ even was here before pokemon

[@jacobgonzalez5854]

Heracross was able to take the WHAT

[@PokekaiPJArchives]

Drapion’s a scorpion. I mean, SKORupi? DraPION?

[@R9beats]

You right i cant read it just don't look anything like that thou 😂

[@PokekaiPJArchives]

No, no, it looks exactly like a scorpion.

[@PokekaiPJArchives]

Well, not exactly, but still.

[@karlvorderwinkler4130]

when did barny from the simpsons decide to play pokemon

I'm replaying Brilliant Diamond and I'm using Dawn's team...

Sucks that literally like 3 days after the video was posted that support for home came out 😭

[@EiscueFriend]

So ash brought anime body pillows into this world? I suddenly dislike ash now

[@jerrydiaz0123]

Great video

[@eheros524]

I like R9 a lot more than JonTron cus as far as I know, R9 isn't racist and probably wouldn't go feral at the sight of a child of color

[@TheBeastlySort02]

Wha

[@eheros524]

@@TheBeastlySort02 hey man how's it going?

[@marjoriejohnston4905]

Ash's Bayleef is female and Gible is male. Both have gender varients

Bastiodon isn’t even a ground type😭

[@silverknight532]

Are you John Tron?

[@yetibeenz]

Bdsp really isnt that bad

[@thisnameis4words]

Hot take I still think lance and his three Dragonite can sweep ash

[@Unbound_Selrahc]

Pretty sure Dragon Ball was one of the bigger reasons for anime coming to the west, as kids considered Pokémon a cartoon not an anime, especially because of the 4kids dub.

[@adrianharvan1689]

Bingo

[@R9beats]

Bongo

[@lazydeo]

Jontron upload again pleaSE

[@fluviusgaming1125]

are you jontrons twin brother you give off the same energy make similar jokes and you talk almost exactly like him

Fun fact Pokemon are supposed to obey based off the level you got them as

It’s 2023 if you want to identify as a game boy color you can my friend
