Awesome run. Say, would you be interessted in playinh a new kind of challenge i've been working on recently? The "max 36 challenge" Can you beat pokemon black/white by using pokemon on max lvl 36 at fightstart. Let me explain: -You can use every pkm available at usual playthrough - no pkm you use can be higher than 36 at fight start - exeption: pkm league. You can start with 6pkm at max 36 per try. If you fail and a pkm got above 36, you need to set it free. -all pokemon at 37 or higher need to be set free - no evolution line can be used twice. So you don store a bunch of lvl36 charizards or whatever. -all items allowed What i hope for this to bring to the table: The player has to manage smart attacking. Diversity in the strategies. The player has to pre- think: what evo- line will i have to use for late battles and which on the way. This concept was thought to be a countrarie idea to the 1 pkm walkthrough which mostly end by lvl.100 and little to no diversity in on the way and i thought this could go better.

[@betteldottel]

I should correct: all held items allowed.

[@TionOriginal]

That's very cool, I'll definitely look into it, although my expertise ends at Gen 4. I will definitely keep this in mind.

[@betteldottel]

@@TionOriginal i guess it'll work just as well. I just did chose gen 5 bcs i know that the elite 4 ist mostly around lvl.48 and this seemed quite fair for a first try ^^

[@jackruby6696]

Excellent stuff! You deserve more views! You should do a solo smeargle run no items besides held ones. Could be fun? Lol

[@TionOriginal]

Definitely sounds like an idea!

[@jackruby6696]

Thanks! I feel honored, I recommend getting Technician on ur smeargle. Every little Bit of offense helps. What version are you going to play on?

Check out dragon ball z team training to if you haven't. Its dragon ball z characters instead of pokemon it's based on fire red and still has the normal pokemon setup but with dragon ball z, it's pretty awesome

Do it with gyarados then lol that'll be easy

[@walkingcorpse1224]

I would say next time, beat Steven, even tho he is Post Game, I'd consider him the final boss. The Battle Frontier is impossible always, so we won't count that. However one challenge that I did mentiong to the master Trainer of Bongzilla, I did mention he should beat the Battle Frontier using Weedle at level 100 with the cheat code that puts all its stats to 999, now u may wonder, why would I wanna see that, in ur case with magikarp, it's because for you to have beaten Steven and the game with Magikarp, it was fun to see u make it this far with steroids, may as well finish the game entirely with mecha roids!!! You earned the right to do so and I wanna see if even then its possible.

[@TionOriginal]

I attempted. He too strong. Aggron just shuts him down, +6 attack struggle crit does like 8% damage

[@RevenantCovenant]

This is a supreme show of dedication! Kudos

[@Campaign2024]

Well done. This is nothing short of a nightmare. Though I find it funny how the only games prior to this where this format of video for this Pokémon only exist for Gen 1 and Gen 3 games. I wonder how a run like this would play out in Gen 4?

[@crazychristopher1989]

Try any Pokémon game with Feebas. Introduced in Generation 3, it has the same move set as Magikarp. However, Feebas can learn moves by TMs and Move Tutor. Plus it can't evolve by leveling up without doing a very tedious method first.

[@TheDoctor323LDS]

Also... did anyone notice that the playable character in this game is clearly Kakashi Hatake

Nice run dude! Sure you used some items but this run was hard enough as is!

This run is actually not possible without items! You can get relatively far, but no champion.

[@thesaltyweeb]

Fair enough! Magikarp and his stats will only get you so far!

@@TionOriginal 0:12 it wasnt on the first try it gave you Magikarp

[@roymerkel8008]

Another slightly less crazy challange you might look into is gen 1 with a solo dratini (wrap until mid level twenties -- though probably not as crazy after that because you have access to TMs)

[@MABfan11]

alternatively, you could use other Magikarps in double battles like MDB does

[@jsFNTC098]

Emerald with surskit pls, love your vids definitely gonna sub

[@TionOriginal]

Thank you!

[@roymerkel8008]

I think one of your rivals got arround the splash situation by abusing the save/reload feature of the game (save, start a fight, splash, hope the enemy misses, if they don't miss, reset, if they do miss, run, if successfully run, save -- lather, rince, and repeat till Magikarp has no moves left)

[@TionOriginal]

One of my rivals? Oh well.

[@daponagegoogenburg807]

Hey, a heads up for future challanges where there is dumb pokemon chosen, you can just save before battle, use [splash] then run, saving hp and using pp, then repeat process, no need for so much money lost in the first grind.
