17:12 a story about a Guard Spec? MDB, have you forgotten about your own Voltorb run? Giovanni was a nightmare for you in the last gym because his Guard Specs stopped you from using Screech, and you kept running out of PP for your non-Electric moves as a result!

Hi MDB, challenge idea: only trades but no new moves! maybe in fire red or gold... :) i'd say to go for a game with more than 3 trades in this case :)

OMG, the guard spec story I'm still trying to get every gold symbol in emerald frontier battles, and the last pokemon I added to the team was a curselax. I had to level up until lvl 85, so I used the elite four many times. By the way, with fully HP + SP Def EV train, starting at level 38 I was able to win :-p You know the mightyena on Sydney likes to spam sand attack, and I needed at least a double boost by curse to overcome the trainer at that level. Guard Spec is magic there, the AI does not understand that you are safe from that attack XD

20:50 Finally a recent video where you mention this XD Alright, so for the Normal/Fly distinction I can explain that one for you. Without going too deep into lore and speculation. Every move of Pokemon has an aura effect about it radiating energy of that "element" (for lack of a better word). In many cases it is this energy striking the target rather than the physical object. The exception to this is Normal and Fighting. What makes a Normal type normal is the lack of energy influence. This is why Normal Typing has no strengths or weaknesses, it is the physical object making contact. Fighting type moves similarly are the expression of Martial form. It has a small amount of energy (Chi effectively) but taken from the natural form (thus it's interaction with other types), however as it is still fundamentally applying a direct physical impact Ghosts can still phase through it. The existence of Chi gives Ghosts something to interact with which is why Ghost can harm Fighting types. Flying goes back to the "Element" thing I mentioned earlier. While a normal peck would pass through a ghost, the move "Peck" is a name given to a small gathering of Fly type energy focused at the tip of the beak. This is also why we have things like Whooper using Ice Punch, and Doduo using fly.

Odd story, but I used to have an emulator on my DS and play Pokémon Yellow. For some reason, the version of the game my dad got me didn't work in the sense that if I caught a Pokémon and saw it's Pokémon entry, it would just go blank? That meant that I could only have Pikachu, the three starters, hitmonlee or hitmonchan, and so on. In a way, I kind of already did this challenge when I was a wee little boy. 🤣

@MelloxMaster3 жыл бұрын
Magmar would be a bit boring and eventually not that hard. Its TM move pool includes Psychic, Body Slam, Mega Punch, Hyper Beam and since it doesn't learn anything until lvl 36 for Leer, lvl 39 Confuse Ray and lvl 43 for Fire Punch, MDB would just have to grind levels and only use Ember and Mega Punch most of the run until then. So it would just be lvl 20 Magmar to defeat Brock, probably 30ish to defeat Misty and then after that the run would slowly become a breeze, though Lorelei would pose potential problems.

Fun fact about when Guard spec is helpful - for the algorithm, ofc: Guard spec is used in Alpha Sapphire + Omega Ruby any% speedruns. Without it, the team Aqua/Magma leader is going to lower your stats when you try to set up. If they don't lower your stats however, they use Embargo instead, which means you can not set up anyway.

Guard spec is useful in challenge runs that allow items against teams with intimidate. For example, gen 3 venusaur champion has gyarados and aracanine with it. In a nuzlocke you can get an easy win setting up dragon dances with a gyarados against pidgeot and then using guard spec before sweeping.

We use a guard spec turn one, set up our x attacks and x speed and with some luck we win the fight with Pikachu never landing a hit. The guard spec protects us from all the Charm attack drops

I prefer single Pokémon runs over the others, mainly because it is more exciting to watch because you can't tell how and even if the is successful. You once beat Red with only one Zubat, so I believe doing things like "Without new moves" would be a brease. Yes, the harder the challenge the better the video to me.

All I have to say is holy crap thanks for the shoutout on a day like today you reenergized me for the last few hours of my shift while in the car delivering pizzas. Did not see it coming and when I heard it I was like holy shit. Coincidently my birthday was this past Wednesday and this was a nice touch to the weekend.

I was so confused for a second cause I only saw the Pikachu and the Omanyte and went- “Oh a challenge only using Pikachu and Omanyte, that’s weird.”

Great run, awesome names! :D I play my yellow runs always with mostly just gift pokemon. Pikachu, the three starters, Evee (Jolteon), and Nidoking or Pidgeot.

On my way through Mt. Moon, i took the Helix Fossil! I knew if i didn't say what i took, you'd all ask. Now that i think about it... Everyone ask anyway! Comments are good for the KZbin Algorithm!
