[@silvershadow5652]

It would only really be in place of Psywave, and explicitly for Snorlax. Perhaps Leftovers or something may be a good idea, but as Snorlax was the major hurdle and Shadow Ball and Psychic would handle the other Pokemon, I think for the Red fight specifically Curse would have been a good idea with only Snorlax in mind, as it would prevent being PP stalled by something you cant break.

[@absol1975]

Since you always ask for suggestions, I'll attempt to post mine again! I think it'll be a fun challenge, and it would get away from the static formula of "one weak Pokémon, grind to a high level and win." I call it Poké-Roulette. The basic gist is as follows: 1. You can catch and use any Pokémon you'd like. However, you must throw at least one pokéball at every wild Pokémon you encounter. 2. You may only use the most recent 6 Pokémon you've acquired (caught, hatched, were gifted, etc.) in battle. 3. You may only use the best pokéballs (poké, great, ultra, master) available to you. 4. No BUYING Repels. However, the repels found on the ground are allowed. Otherwise, the standard rules apply: HM Pokémon can be used even when they're not your most recent 6, they just can't battle, no items in battle, etc. As for what game, it needs to be one with a fair number of caves and water routes, but not too many. I love HeartGold, so maybe HeartGold? It has Union Cave, the routes to Cianwood, Ice Path, Tohjo Falls, Victory Road... a fair number, but smart navigation could limit random catches devastating your team. Plus grinding would be counter-productive, as once you're out of trainers, wild encounters could keep resetting your team's levels. I think it'd be a fun and different challenge - here's hoping you find the idea interesting! But even if not, I'll keep coming back for more :) . Keep up the great work!

[@Surgemaster2012]

Personally I didn't mind it even if I do concede that its a problem. But Johto is basically another half of Kanto with considerably less Pokemon comparatively. They are halves of the same whole. But I do find it weird how some mons aren't considered like Misdreavus wasn't used by Morty or HootHoot by Falkner. However I do think the one's they chose are the ones good enough to be aces, as with a tradition of most games newer mons tend to be Gym leader aces. But Gen 2 has among the weakest roster in the series. I can get Heracross not being on Chuck's team because Heracross didn't have a good moveset in Gen 2 (outside of competitive) but Hitmontop should've been considered at least. Plus Scyther did have Scizor as an evolution in Bugsy's case (though why wasn't Spinarak at least considered?)

Hey, Mah-Dry-Bread. Looking at your struggles with Snorlax, I thought of a few alternative options you could've used. Looking them up, I noticed that Misdreavus can learn Return, Zap Cannon, and Thunder in Gen 2; so you could've tried paralyzing Snorlax or using Return to attack, especially since Snorlax is already more of a Special wall. Still, great video as always; I look forward to the next!

[@Shuyin128MK4]

Paralysis on Snorlax doesn't matter because it can Rest it away and was already slower, Confusing was the best play. Also Mistreavus has bad physical attack so it wouldn't do much even with Return, Shadow Ball is the only worth it physical move.

Please just do “Can you beat Pokémon Platinum with only one Smeargle”

[@taupeleader1011]

Yes! A Smeargle run would allow for really interesting strategies!

[@Joker-fq6yx]

​@@taupeleader1011 Well yes but remember you can only use moves from wild pokemon and you have to luck out that they use the move you want first turn or else you have to soft reset. You also only get one move every 10 levels.

[@taupeleader1011]

@@Joker-fq6yx The beginning would be potentially slow, yes. But so was the Magicarp run. If the first sketch ends up being a non-damaging move, then Smeargle can struggle to level 11. If Smeargle is faster then the opponent, then it can stall for time with the non-damaging move until the opponent uses a damaging move. Then Smeargle can Sketch it the following turn, and the run can proceed.

Can we add a new rule to spice things up? I'd like to see a challenge seeing if you can beat a game without using TMs.

[@UnusualPete]

He already does that, basically. He only used Shadow Ball because of STAB. Most of the time, there are incredible TMs or move tutors and he still doesn't teach anything. Go figure.

[@grxybst]

Another request for G/S/C with a Machop. Love the vids

[@UnusualPete]

That's easy. Most opponents in GSC are weak to Fighting. The only challenges are Lance, Red and maybe Bugsy and Morty. Then again, Machop can learn the elemental punches from the Goldenrod Department Store. Even if Machop isn't a special attacker, they're good attacks. And Return can pack a punch against everyone (almost).

[@Casey_Becker]

Love your vids man! You're a great person and your voice is so nice to listen to

[@DisasterLord]

You could have replaced psywave with curse holding leftovers, it's learn with a tm in Celeadon city in GS. If anything I'm amazed you never used it for red with other pokemon in GS runs, extra attack and defense on already slow Pokemon would have helped you loads and the one time you use a defensive ghost you would have been full health by the time Snorlax fainted.

[@UnusualPete]

He also could have used Hidden Power. With luck, it could be Fighting type! Or Return. That's also good. Being physical isn't an issue because Shadow Ball is physical and he used it. I know it's STAB but it's still physical.

[@krystallinekris]

@@UnusualPete STAB with base 80 power and a chance for Sp. Defense drops AND has type coverage, while Return hits nothing super-effectively and can't hurt Steel, Rock or Ghost types very much (or at all). It likely wouldn't have helped much on Snorlax other than its base PP possibly out-stalling Rest turns. Even an HP Fighting wouldn't have done much considering its low BP (60 I believe is its max) and it has 5 less PP than Return at base. Any way you look at it, Snorlax was a brick wall that needed luck to break through, and he got his luck he needed.

@@justanormalguy649 I saw other ditto challenge runs, and they spent more time spamming struggle than using transform. And I thought it defeated the purpose.

>starts out calling Misdreavus "her" instead of "it" >it's a male

[@DemBigOlEyes]

In all fairness, misdrevious's design is inherently female, kinda like Gardevoir prior to Gallade's inclusion.

[@AK-sn5wx]

@@DemBigOlEyes That's true, though I find it kind of cringey in general when people refer to Pokemon as he/she. In the anime and the games it's always "it" regardless of gender.

[@DemBigOlEyes]

@Otacon464 I disagree. The whole reason Gallade was created was because fans found a male Gardevoir far too odd. The design for Kirlia is also very much female with ralts being the only androgynous one. However, I understand that this opinion is subjective, I'll tell you there is a very, very good reason why Gardevoir is considered a waifu trope alongside Lopunny, Tsareena, etc. Even if you don't think her design is inherently female, plenty of other people do.

[@DemBigOlEyes]

@@AK-sn5wx Yes, I also prefer the it term since pokemon are pretty much magical animals and people usually refer to animals as it regardless of gender unless you're a pet owner.
