Can You Beat Pokémon White 2 by Drawing Teams from Random Cards?

This took forever and was a terrible idea but by the time I realised it was a terrible idea, I was already committed to finishing it. So... here's what an entire Random Card Challenge in one video looks like. Can you beat Pokémon White 2 by drawing random cards to form teams for every major battle? Who even knows at this point? Time is a construct.

i really hope that this series gets a viewing rebound because it really stands out among pokechallenge videos. no one else does challenges like this nor do they narrate like you do. i really hope your work is rewarded here.

[@korub1]

I totally agree, I actually started collecting Pokémon cards because of ETU’s card challenges and annoyingly I missed this episode when it came out despite being in that 10% of subscribed viewers 😡

Think I definitely preferred this over multiple videos. Just have one long one whenever it’s ready as opposed to the more frequent series. Also liked the Yu-Gi-Oh reference. I feel like it was underrated and not many people will pick up on it.

I love the way you narrate the battles. It reminds me of how I used to imagine Pokemon battles as a kid.

Just wanted to chime in with a big "thank you!" for the videos. Love this series, no one else is doing something like this and it's pretty excellent. Thanks for doing it and I hope to see it continue! Oh, edited to say that I liked the singular big video. The wait was worth it!

I liked the whole thing in one video as well.

The hesitation before mentioning Metronome, and you managed to not even use it, I'm proud of you for battling your addiction so well.

I really do appreciate how you always go through the trouble of narrating the battles out and adding extra on to them.

Getting this in one video is just spoiling us F.J! This is too good.

[@grinbrothers]

Zebstrika falling off the cat-walk had me in stitches; both from laughter and it falling on me. A fantastic video with plenty of fun teams (particularly early on), unbelievable battles and plenty of heroes. The feats achieved by the likes of Sporey, Glide and Freckle were incredible... as was your luck with Hidden Power typings. I prefer the series based videos as I'm not a fan of watching 30 minute+ videos (it's harder to plan around) but I still found this extremely entertaining.

[@anthonycarver971]

You deserve way more subscribers F.J. your videos are always a joy to watch. I know they take a long time to make but I hope you know your hard work is very much appreciated!

[@ricardoj376]

I was gonna ask if you even had any gen 5 cards, but I was corrected quickly

[@dragapultvmax3594]

[@smaugthefiredrake7840]

I adore your narration and this is such a fun series. Personally I prefer the several shorter videos over the one long video, but mostly just because it means more content more often. But I will always watch either way, because seeing any video of yours popping up always puts a smile on my face!

[@cullenhutchison6528]

It would've been cool if this was done on Challenge Mode since many opponents have a greater number of Pokémon.

This video is a gift. My favorite poketuber playing my favorite pokemon game in my favorite format. Who told you my birthday was coming up? In all seriousness, the random card challenge is honestly my favorite series on youtube, and even though I never comment on youtube videos ever, I really just wanted to let both FJ and the algorithm know how much I love this series, especially in this more longform format! Amazing stuff as always, and while I really hope the random card series continues, I'm honestly just excited to see what you do next! I'm sure it'll be great. (ps not joking about the birthday thing, its in literally a week, and this was honestly such a nice treat lol)

[@enzolopes4911]

[@fields_of_regret]

Dude this is my favorite series ever, your narration makes it so exciting even tho you such a soothing voice. It's almost paradoxical

[@SuspiciousIguana]

Missed seeing you upload. Always enjoy your card format, though maybe you can 'shuffle' the format around. So far you've picked a card from a random collection, maybe something like numbering cards and rolling a die, or cutting cards from a big pile. Hope the channel takes off with how much dedication you've put into it.

[@NightScaped]

Charmeleon is my favorite fire type and bayleef is my favorite grass type! i feel proud seeing them both in the same video being used

I absolutely love these videos. You can really see all the love and effort that you put into them and I truly appreciate that. Especially the narration. The way you describe an Earthquake in-game gets me every time. I do like the single video because I get that instant gratification of seeing from start to finish in one go, but Spread out is perfectly fine.

[@kurtpjung]

I turned the playback speed to .75x because it feels like the battle action is sped up, and now FJ sounds super baked. 10/10 highly enjoyable experience

I think this format might be better for you that way you don’t have to drag yourself to do multiple episodes that you might forget to do, granted since it’s one episode that’s a lot of mon coordination you have to do fast

[@annemarielemme4402]

Thanks for posting this. I had a bad day and this is a spark of joy.

[@Zaezar]

This is super clever and I loved getting to watch! One thing that I'd love to see addressed in future videos in this series is a quick summary of how the challenge works at the beginning. Namely when or how you determine adding in new Pokemon into the pool of options. Only heard once in passing that it was based on the opponents average stats or something of that nature? It felt almost arbitrary and you mostly crushed the game after that. You mentioned that this is the latest in this series but by the point I had these questions I was too far into the video to want to go and find that one for a more in-depth explanation. Speaking of! Show us a couple of the failures too! Some of these were super close and you mentioned that it took multiple attempts. While its awesome seeing you succeed, it does take a bit of the edge out of the "challenge" when we know that each match we watch is going to be the one that wins. A couple of close calls, or runs where you get totally stomped to show how hard it really was would add so much to the eventual victory. Thank you for putting together this video, seriously its awesome and it gave me an idea for a personal challenge to attempt in the future

[@Lollerobot]

I have enjoyed all of these challenges hugely and it is a shame that they get so few views. Keep on keeping on, I'll be watching.
