Can You Beat Pokémon FireRed with Only An Electrode?

[@scoobag]

Please do more pokemon content, really enjoyable to watch especially with your entertaining commentary style

I would like to definitely:)

I feel like we've finally been blessed with a part of the nerbit lore. Specifically, the electrode

If you want to know the story behind the electrode, go watch the Q&A I did a few weeks ago, their are timestamps to find the answers to specific questions

I know the music is royalty free but I swear to God it's awakening a specific sleeper cell in my brain where hours of playing Fable are locked. Also, a very delightful run.

[@Nerbit13098]

Yeah I love the fable soundtrack and thought it would work well as some background music for the video :)

[@Xsior]

@@Nerbit13098 So it is Fable OST! Could you edit description as it shows that it's usual royalty free stuff?

[@KovCapyWizz]

omg. i was not even listening to him speak as I was so entranced by the music. it took me from fable, to oblivion, to the fields of Dantooine in Kotor and back to fable again. it was a trip.

[@dksoulstice6040]

Is the entire Fable soundtrack royalty free?

That evolution nearly killed me.

[@brosephbroman7564]

That had my dying too. I had to rewind a few times

[@VioletParagon]

Was not expecting pokemon but I'm more than happy to see more! Maybe a randomized run if you decide to stream it! Or a nuzlocke

[@Nerbit13098]

If I ever streamed Pokémon it would definitely be a nuzlocke, maybe randomized who knows

[@THEBEEDOOBOP]

@@Nerbit13098 I would love to see a nuzlocke run in your style, that would be awesome

[@DanteTorn]

I feel like Nuzlocke has been done to death at this point TBH. It's good, yeah, but I don't really know what could be made new about it other than "it's Nerbit doing it."

[@VioletParagon]

@@DanteTorn I mean, that's why I would watch him stream a run, sure it has been done but I'd be interested in watching him do it, because of his personality and humour. Just like I'll watch different people play the same games for their perspectives, commentary and humour. A stream is probably the best argument for him doing that

[@Ry-Ry]

Just imagine if your at a blowing alley, accedentally grabbed a electrode and caused a whole building to lose power. Anyways I know nothing about pokemon but still good video nerbit

[@Nerbit13098]

Thanks man:)

[@xerxes333]

Love a good blowing alley.

[@TheBlackAshTree]

Lose power? Youd be lucky to make it to a closed casket funeral due to their famous move "Explosion". Let alone what would happen to the building. Would be hard to mistake one for a bowling ball though. I think the show has an electrode being canonically large enough that one guy rode around on it like a giant circus ball. Was during a race. He uh.. didnt win. In fact, he got the kaboom.

[@wadespencer3623]

@@TheBlackAshTree Kinda funny, he actually should have won easily because Electrode has the highest speed of any mon in gen 1.

[@rodenbeard]

Pokemon is SUCH a rich vein for these challenges. I'd love to see more. Also, an idea: Can you Beat Fallout (any 3d one I guess) while addicted to every chem?

[@wr1ght939]

Love that intro! Godly timing.

[@wr1ght939]

I also love your new edits with script bloopers!

[@brodygray744]

I love that you included "Four Witches" Tien when you were grabbing the necessary Tiens. Four Witches never gets enough love for being cool.

[@jaded3160]

Nerbit really is using an EMP Bomb to try and beat pokemon, how interesting

The mascot has become the weapon today. only wish it had the infinity gauntlet

You couldve used the vs. Seeker for grinding, i usually used it on cycling road where there's all those bikers, they also level up every time you rematch them for like the first 3 times so more xp

[@awkward-girl-sera8143]

I’m a little late to this one but I love the variety in games for your challenges! Appreciate all the hard work, definitely keeping me sane during these times lol

[@DanteYewToob]

This video is kinda confirmation of something I always thought/wanted. I always wished Pokémon games had a new game+ mode where you can start the game with any Pokemon you have in your collection, all of the enemies are leveled up a bit, gyms are bit harder… etc. you still start at a low level, maybe 10 but the benefit is that you get to have the experience of starting and playing through the whole game with your favorite Pokemon and face new challenges too. How cool would it be to beat the game, and then start over with a lvl 10 legendary, or a mankey or mew or something… whatever you want! You run into a few random encounters that are much more challenging because you’re famous now! I think Pokemon games are the perfect setup for a great NG+ mode and I don’t know why they don’t do it. Not everyone is going to love the starters and everyone has always dreamed of starting with their favorite Pokemon. Let me start a game with Mew! Let me play through the whole game with my little punch guy! It’s such a missed opportunity for replay value.

[@arcticdino1650]

I'm imaging electrode doing double team by rolling back and forth at lighting speeds

[@Firepowerx31]

Nerdbit is out here doing every challenge possible. His next one is gonna be "Can you beat life without eating Flintstone vitamins?"

God hearing fable music while seeing pokemon is definitely new experience but enjoyable as hell keep it up you're doing great job bro

[@bunnyonabunwithagunnicepun5689]

Keep in mind, this is basically the Pokémon equivalent of bringing a Taser (not to be confused with a Stun Gun) to an underground animal fighting ring and just barely winning. I like to think that, canonically, Blastoise was used to break up protests in the 50's and 60's. Also, Polandball.

[@gabem3593]

[@andrewwelch5302]

Tbf it can't be much worse than the actual games and some of the best Pokémon games are the side games at this point. Additionally arceus looks amazing tbh, I don't play Pokémon games anymore but if they release games with that level of actual effort I'd actually consider buying a switch lite

Great video. I hope you decide to keep Pokémon challenge runs as a regular occurring thing on the channel.

But this is just my idea)

If you want to add one more point of challenge for potential future runs, make sure your rival picks the starter that is hardest for your Pokémon to beat. That's the method that Jrose11 uses and it seems to nicely increase the difficulty down to that last battle too.
