[@GallantBlade475]

Training Special Defense feels like it would have made more sense. Being able to tank water moves more easily would have helped more than trying to outspeed them.

[@shikarixox1195]

Right, he mostly understands EVs, but has zero competitive sense, so he can't properly rationalize where he needs to compensate. Which is also why he said torkoals physical defense is "excessive"(made me cringe). Theres no such thing as excessive defense... its not like Torkoal is some God tier physical wall.

[@silvershadow5652]

@@GallantBlade475 The nature makes it a coin toss for if he should go special defense or hp. HP is easy to train (Whismer), it makes it bulkier on both sides and he heavily invested in special attack too. If running Curse Id suggest health and special defense, but with heavy special investment it might be better to just do HP. It does make you marginally less bulky specially, reguardless of nature, but is a huge boon to both defenses with Torkoal. Something like Drifblim or Jigglypuff would rather the straight defense, but when its less obvious like Torkoal sometimes you need to run calcs to decide whats smarter. Copperajah, as an example, is in that sweet spot some think to run full hp, but splitting 252 in its defenses makes it marginally bulkier. Sadly its case by case, and doing it so early in the run health would have been wiser as its going to help regardless if physical or specials the issue with marginal differences specially, when considering gen 3 theres no EVs on trainers. Bulks the clear better idea, especially as he was nearly always outsped anyway, but if special defense or hitpoints an argument can be made both ways here. Surprised how few commented "high defenses and low speed means you shouldnt waste time with speed"

Woah, a Torkoal run! I expect it to be very hard because NONE of the main characters (except for like glacia) have pokemon that is weak to fire. I think glacia, wattson, and sidney are going to be easy, but everything else will be hard. Also, can you do a Kink run in Gen 5? Klink would be a hard challenge run pokemon. Edit: Take the Claw Fossil.

[@Sazzyjo3]

If he does do a Klink run in gen 5, if he plays white version he would have an extra difficult time because N will have Reshiram

[@LeafBush_]

@@Sazzyjo3 and also the fact that... KLINK ONLY HAS ELECTRIC, NORMAL, STEEL, AND FIGHTING ATTACKING MOVES.

[@SpliffingBrit]

What about a kink run?

[@douglasarchibald1427]

@@LeafBush_ so what? that's good type diversity for gen 5.

Hello! I've been a big fan of the channel for a while now and when you said this was going to be a challenge, i decided "why not try this myself for once?" I named my Torkoal Squirtle since I think that is also hilarious. Overall, the challenge wasn't bad until the Elite 4, Wallace and Steven. I got bricked walled real hard. I was 72 when I got the league but needed to be 93 to beat Wallace and 100 to beat Steven. I used Amnesia, Iron Defense, Flamethrower and Body Slam through the grand majority of the run and made sure to beat all of the trainers possible so i never actually invested in EVs or had to worry about speed until the end. This was a ton of fun to do! Hope you're doing well and keep up the great work!

[@wanderintaco]

Upset with the Torkoal Slander as he's one of my favourite pokemon... still a good video :D

[@AndrewDavis2112]

Hail doesn’t increase the damage of ice type moves.

[@nickdolshenko7617]

Mah-Dry-Bread: I will max out Speed EV's Also Mah-Dry-Bread: Uses Curse to drop Speed the whole game instead of using Iron Defence or Amnesia Mah-Dry-Bread: Experiences the Power of Sunny Day and instantly wipes the floor with the psychic gym Again Mah-Dry-Bread: Rather keeps Smokescreen then using TM 11 for Sunny Day You can do better, bro!

[@Neogeddon]

After this many runs, you'd think

[@thomasbeardmore8825]

Curse doesn’t drop speed due to Torkoal’s ability. It can also be more worth to take less hits rather than hit harder especially if you’re mostly slower than the opponents

[@Neogeddon]

@@thomasbeardmore8825 As per Bulbapedia (and just, watching the footage): "White Smoke does not prevent self-inflicted stat reductions such as from moves like Superpower or Shell Smash."

[@ausse777]

Love the challenge videos! Would love to see you try a challenge using moves that don't directly deal damage so you are forced to only use status conditions and weather to deal damage.

[@f.d8059]

you said you might be able to power through wallace twice btw, i liked it.

[@samuelvera6601]

wait, wait, which fossil did MDB got? can seem to find that part

[@blazeok]

Finally a fire type on the series though not exactly going to be a fun one, either way I can’t wait

[@etoinedevries7583]

Another fire pokemon? You do this fire type a lot mannn, try some other types please. (Sarcasm) Loved the video man!

[@oscarisaacs8755]

hey man! I love your videos! a couple weeks ago I actually did the platinum no new moves challenge and had a blast doing it. When the video is up next week I'll comment my team and im very excited to see whether or not our teams are similar :). best of luck, its an awesome challenge. And good luck with Cyrus... that's all I'll say XD

[@robertlupa8273]

I'm glad you're excited. I'm sure MahDry is glad, too.

[@joel2628]

I want him to name it after a Ninja turtle. Or perhaps he will name it Squirtle, because that's hilarious.

[@deafeninglysilent1480]

I think this may be possible to beat this challenge but only if the AI make horrible move choices. I have a suggestion for a future Pokémon challenge. Can you beat the game using only one Hitmonchan and only using the elemental punches in battle? I know that there is a way with the universal Pokémon randomizer to have your starting Pokémon holding a TM so that way you could do the whole challenge only using the punches.

[@zagger999]

Well that surprised me. Didn't think Torkoal could manage to get past Wallace honestly. Awesome work! Still think a Headbutt Pokemon only run in either GSC or HGSS would be an interesting run.

[@thepuckdropshere4048]

im so happy about this run,torkoal is my 3rd favorite pokemon

[@softfloof8352]

Could you try pokemon black or white 2 since you haven’t made a challenge on the second ones yet and with only status afflictions to deal damage like poison/burn.

[@unmotivatedcomedy]

Any Pokémon game with 2 ditto. That way we see more transform and less struggle. Algorithm..... Fossil.... Twitter? ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つditto?

[@harusan9056]

the moment you realise you watch these pokemon challenges not only to start sleeping like i always do great content to relax old school pokemon and a nice commentary. but this time laying on a friends sofa drunk to get less drunk t o walk home. id rather take the helix fossil than to walk home at 3 am, greetings from a drunken german btw. mdb. I love you, you saved my insomnia. sorry I am horribly drunk, good night and I hope you win.

[@dragicianryudo595]

That was an awesome Steven fight.
