Bringing a Pokémon with EVERY Ribbon to the World Championships!

[@rickingangel]

Can't wait for 2026 worlds when TPC starts giving "World Champion" ribbons to teams/ Pokemon who make it to top 3

[@SirToastyToes]

@@rickingangel That happened at certain tournaments in the early 2000s! There are also National, Regional and World Champion Ribbons given to event distribution Pokemon, or rather they would be if Game Freak ever used them. The World Champion Ribbon exists on exactly one distribution Pokemon

[@Numbabu]

@@SirToastyToes That pokemon is the one true world champion I guess?

[@wanderingtyphlosion7332]

​@@SirToastyToes which one?

[@SirToastyToes]

Ryota Otsubo's Krookodile

[@CraftsmanOfAwsomenes]

@@SirToastyToes the "the World Conqueror" title goes hard. Though not necessary as hard as "the 100x Victorious"

[@TViewier]

I just think of Hack check people taking the switch, seeing the shiny Giraffe, seeing how many ribbons it has, and being in complete disbelief that it was all obtained legitimately.

[@TaiKamiy]

It wasn't. RNG manip is not legal.

[@MrGrimlock1]

​@@TaiKamiy this dude believes RNG manip ain' legal lmaaoooooo

[@TheMasterBlaze]

@@TaiKamiy It's impossible to prove the difference between manip-ing RNG and just happening to end on the necessary RNG frame. That'd be like saying Soft Reset shiny hunting is illegally obtaining shiny's because your brute forcing a specific RNG outcome. Then to get even more extreme, KO-ing the Legendary and re-entering the Hall of Fame to respawn the legendary to brute force the RNG to shiny would also be illegal.

[@TaiKamiy]

@TheMasterBlaze Just because it is impossible to prove doesn't mean it isn't cheating. Unlike SRing, RNG manips use a third party software not sponsored by the pokemon co. to influence the pokemon you catch. While this might be fun to do, it should not be used in official competitions as it ruins the fun of the people YOU'RE playing against who might be playing the game by the rules.

[@an0bserver2000]

​@@TaiKamiybait used to be believable

[@StickMaster500]

This Girafarig deserves that Living Legend title since it likely the only Girafarig in the world that has come from Gen 3 to Gen 9 and has fought in the World Championships!

[@frankie_peanuts]

I think it’d be so cool if GF gave league competitor ribbons to the Pokemon you use to compete in tournaments. Like “X Regional Competitor” or “2024 Worlds Competitor” ribbons would be sick. They already do promos and stuff like that for the TCG- can’t be that much harder for VGC

[@EmasterAnimations1525]

You definitely deserve the Living Legend ribbon in real life

[@ToxicognathHugs]

Next year Nintendo is going to have to distribute Toast, mark my words!

[@roland.w]

That would be amazing! Someone tell me when that happens!

[@CameronMajure]

These videos are always some of the most interesting deep dives into a uniquely underappreciated part of Pokémon. Congratulations on getting a Ribbon Master to the world stage!!

[@blakerenimu9033]

Are you telling me that Go of all games made the Fabled lv1 Ice Shard Donphan possible!?

[@nullpoint3346]

Of course, Go has to justify its existence somehow.

[@emmastarr5242]

​@@nullpoint3346A better claim than Sleep can make, despite Pokémon literally already having natures in that game already, and Go doesn't...so of course the harder one to make work with it got the privilege. :p

[@excalibur493]

I've been collecting level 1s for a while now, and seeing one become viable is hilarious. I remember going on a couple of streams and showing them off just to confuse people.

[@skeletorthebest7204]

So you know how Game Freak gave out event Pokémon based on mons on players’ teams? What if Bonne became an event distribution?

[@Rot8erConeX]

I feel like it would make Farigiraf the easy post-Gen-9 Ribbon Master starter mon, like how Colo Shadow mons are now.

[@Ddddddddddd381]

I was confused why bonne wasn’t a palindrome but then I saw the Japanese characters. Nice touch

[@charizaro2]

The blue nose on the girafarig shiny line is soooo cute

[@delphoxhoopa7289]

I want to eventually go to a massive Worlds event because they're never happening where I live! A Pokemon with a special Ribbon would be the cherry on top!

[@froxy_ef-em]

LMAO the "guess we doin circles now" during the partner mark bit was way too funny

[@ToxicDooM96]

The toast cameo during the BDSP champion made me smile.

[@ItsMeJoji]

Making a Ribbon Master for a World Championship competitor was a great idea! Now when are you making a whole team of Ribbon Masters? 👀

[@EpicFail7777777]

Very funny to watch a video and get jumpscared by myself two seconds in! Can’t wait to watch

[@The_Legendary_Nic]

As someone who has a level 1 Donphan, i'd reccomend picking up an Aron instead haha. Getting a low level phanpy is so rare and unlikely that its borderline a mirage Also ive got an easier way of getting itemfinder mark, a lot of land based pokemon will get on a floatie when you go in water, and it does a pretty good job at keeping up with you. Then you just take a cruise around the Coastal Biome or Casseroya Lake (if you dont mind Veluza swarming you)

[@henrymars6626]

Or the low framerate lmao I use Paradise Barrens all the time for it. Really any DLC area is so chonky with items I'm surprised there isn't a Lost 'n Found for them (since canonically items you pick up off the ground belong to previous trainers iirc). But Paradise Barrens also have Rare Bones literally every 3 steps which is why I prefer it.

[@dawn-path]

i guess we doin circles now

[@tiny_shovel6570]

I have been subscribed since you were mainly focusing on NL edits, but had been hesitant to check out your Pokémon stuff, and I am glad to say I was pleasantly surprised! This is really informative and your voice is so nice!!

[@ProfessorRex]

@@904funny it took my brother @professortops 8736 runs through Magma Colosseum in Pokémon battle revolution to find it! (And a couple attempts for the 3D print to work)

[@ProfessorRex]

Glad our Z-poses made it in! 😍

[@growthenerp7750]

With the Aron/Aromatisse team for the battle tree, I ran shell bell on Aron as I found it to be more consistent than berry juice. Berry juice does have its perks though.

[@Leto85]

So impressive. I still have plans to do this myself with a Snorlax or Ralts from Gen 3, and seeing videos like this one reminds me of how awesome that would be to do.

[@RealLilJappy]

i saw your community posts so i knew you were at worlds, but damn i didnt know you competed! good for you man looking forward to this

[@SirToastyToes]

@@RealLilJappy Oh I built this Girafarig for a competitor but I didn't compete myself :)

[@an0bserver2000]

[@joshyotoast]

Such a tough but cool challenge, oddly a very therapeutic watch.

[@Uzishmoozi36]

This is wild. I cant believe they’re are almost 100 ribbons available

[@thenewdarling1]

Just when we needed him most, the king returned :’) I can’t wait to have a new Toast video to watch seven hundred times XD It would be so exciting to see you go to Worlds in 2025!

[@joeysaiyan]

i'm so fixated on the pokemon ranch footage

[@torabii]

This was awesome. Bonne will surely be treasured forever!

[@BigRigCreates]

I felt good guessing correctly how lv 1 donphan exists. Hope to go to worlds next year!

[@TwiliPaladin]

5:40 That's why Metagross learns Hone Claws, and why my go-to set uses it.

[@TwilightChomperEnthusiast]

Now the real question: What ribbon was selected to be Bonne’s title in-battle at worlds?

[@SirToastyToes]

Bonne the 100x Victorious :)

[@emmastarr5242]

That is an ingenious idea there, with that Donphan set. ^^; I'd never heard about that before now, but now I want to try it for myself? :p

[@MarioPikachu626]

As a Gym Leader from PAX who has a shiny Farigiraf for his badge, I approve of this video highly.

[@weezerlanches]

Hey there! Just wanted to say thanks for like, the third time for helping me on the RIbbon master thing for Alola. I'd like to share some of the strats I had for the Battle Tree Master ribbon- I used a Spritzee with Eviolite instead of Aromatisse since I didn't have a second 3ds to get the traded evolution, it's surprisingly tanky if you give it an eviolite and most of the time Dazzling Gleam doesn't needs to deal that much damage thanks to Aron's endeavor, on that nove having the Spritzee status'd isn't too much of a loss since it'll likely still take a few hits before going down while giving Aron and the other Pokémon a bunch of opportunites to make a move. I used the same fear Aron set as lead along with the Spritzee as you told me in the video with a 252HP and 252SpAtk Delphox as backup, the Delphox uses WIll-o-Wisp and Mystical Fire and substitute to sponge hits, Psychic for coverage and holds a Sitrus Berry and has the Magician ability that activates when Sitrus Berry is used. The subject for the Alola ribbons was a full odds shiny Raticate I got in Crystal, it had the Hidden Ability Hustle and had Double-Edge with Normalium-Z as it's best move since it bypasses the accuracy check from Hustle. Nice hunting on all other gens y'all!

In Generation 6 the 40 Contest Ribbons and 8 Battle Tower Ribbons are folded into two ribbons called the Contest Memory and Battle Memory Ribbon respectively that have a counter to track how many they had, so it ends up being 42 visible + 48

As someone who plays VGC and makes their Pokemon legitimately and not with PkHex like most top competitors, I can see the appeal of the 0 Attack IV but it is extremely irrelevant. Foul Play is not common and a good player would be wise to not even hit a special attacker with it in the first place. Second, confusion isn’t very common in VGC and said scenario hardly comes up.
