Can You Beat Pokemon Scarlet Without Using ANY MOVES?

[@robertpaulson5095]

Imagine being Nemona in this challenge. Every time you have come up against this trainer you have destroyed them, as they kept trying to feed their Pokémon instead of fighting, only to find out that they somehow defeated the elite four, and the champion, without a single move.

[@james9802]

This was incredible, well done to your sandstorming, toxic spiking, pp stalling team of pacifists

[@carstenjorgensen2607]

Great work! Just 4 Titans, 5 Star battles, and the Crater to go. Would love to see the continuation of this.

[@Subspace.T.Tripmine]

Beating the whole game wouldn't be possible, since it forces you to use tera blast against the other koraidon/miraidon after the ai turo/sada fight.

[@Bd-qs5bn]

also im not sure if auto battle is allowed

[@manuelmontoya8839]

I remember that you could easily get 2 rocky helmet before entering Mesagoza, the first is Zapapico in a small swirl next to the battle arena. The second is a reward for beating 5 trainers in South Province Area 4. Given my crazy expedition of how far you could go before, "starting," the game, it's a fun time just doing everything in maddening progression. The only thing that drives me nuts is getting the Giga Drain TM as it's the only thing that is technically possible to obtain, but requires extremely lucky spawns and battle warp locations. Anyhow, this is a very fun watch.

[@RuyVuusen]

I like how you named most of your Pokémon after metric system prefixes.

[@QweaklyForgotten]

Nice video, really takes the concept of a pokemon "pacifist" run to the extreme ^^ Just a remark about the type chart: Pico didn't quad-resist Frosmoth's Bug buzz, only simple resist. Rock does not resists Bug, only Poison does (yeah I know, also thoughtit did for a long time. Saddest part: Tyranitar is actually WEAK to bug as a result :'( )

[@1stCallipostle]

I'm kinda surprised more people don't know that. I've watched Ttar die trying to switch in on Volc enough times in my life to know it fears bug buzz

[@RyanReta97]

Resistances are crazy 💀💀

[@zenmaster8]

You should have done the final nemona battle as imo that’s the real final fight of that storyline

[@RealNikTrustMe]

honestly you could probably take this all the way to the final boss if you wanted. the only issues seem to be the poison raid, the primal titan, and any magic guarders that exist

[@barbashop_380]

Wow i just watched the last 5 of your uploads. These are very high quality videos and have tons of style to them. Keep it up man you deserve ALOT more subs and i know you will get the recognition you deserve soon enough. Cheers!

[@dattromboneguy]

7:21 It didnt activate probably because of the overworld rain effect... If you had swapped back into the hippo afterwards once the rain stopped, it might have worked?

[@lwfawn]

There seems to be a glitch where weather appears to end but doesn’t actually (particularly with rain) during battles, so that could MAYBE be why. Don’t quote me.

I recognise the music around the alfornada gym and I'm SO close to remembering what it's from, but im drawing blanks. Anyway awesome video! I love weird concept challenges and this one definitely seemed really hard to do

[@mrtommo9996]

SOOO i just watch your "Pokemon - Can You Get Every Condition at Once?" and wanted to check out your channel... JUST TO FIND THIS: NO JOKE i am doing this challenge BUT i added more limits and these are things you might not had known and/or things i was trying to avoid. 1: You can beat the 1st 2 battle but you need to learn the savewarp thats at the start of the game and then slide up a cliff. (if you want to know i could send you the information; i have been doing the challenge on twitch LUL) 2: i had given myself a limit on only 1 ability per a pokemon so i had to use sand spit which is strangely MUCH better as i also tried to limit switch. 3: the Grass gym was sooo upsetting. it was the 1st time i broke the "switching" rule. don't ask me how BUT i did somehow beat it with sandstorm chiper damage... it would had been easier if the GYM LEADER KNEW HOW GRASS TYPES WORK... but i guess gamefreak needs all the time to get gen 10 out this year. Violet had a fix in gulpin... but then one of the late game battles would be a struggle only so i wanted to dodge that. 4: i am not using Aftermath... only due to it wasn't really needed for me. i will say the one you was thinking of is Innards Out which isn't in the game and i wish it was. but the only place i wanted to use it was in 1 battle and did work out a fix... sort off. 5: so you might not had known. there is a rocky helmet on the floor which is how you can beat the 1st two battles. 6: that weather blocker was a NIGHTMARE and nearly cost me some "non struggling" KOs. i just resetted the moment that weather was a problem. 7: i see you didn't beat the whole game just the E4 and champion. this might be due to you think the starmobiles were impossible due to they were immune to all status and stuff like that... well fun fact: they are effected by sand. and yes i have beaten all of them.

[@Chorutowo]

I find it funny that my child self dident even know about non damaging moves and this guys just beating the game without any moves

[@cullenhutchison6528]

Before watching: Beating the gyms/trainers and titans will probably be (relatively) straightforward with Flame Body, Toxic Debris, etc., but the Starmobiles might require Aftermath + Revive strats. Then there are always Jaboca or Rowap Berry strats, but being unable to use Recycle limits this. Edit: Oh, this was only for the gym challenge, which is probably the easiest path for this challenge...I feel misled by the video title and wish the other routes and final boss were covered too.

[@KingTheLuck]

Sorry you feel misled, hope you still enjoyed! If it's any consolation the titans are really quite trivial with flame body and aftermath, and it's largely the same old same old for the team star fights. I figured once I could demonstrate beating the main gyms it'd be clear that we'd be able to handle the rest of the game as well using the same strategies and some more overlevelling and X items. Thanks for the in depth comment!

[@cullenhutchison6528]

@@KingTheLuck I get it. Thanks for the in-depth reply! I mainly thought the Team Star fights could be interesting to show off strategies for since Starmobiles are immune to status conditions and have infinite PP, so most of the main strategies wouldn't work. On top of that, the first 2 Starmobiles do not know moves that make contact, so not even Rocky Helmet or Aftermath will work for those; the only thing I can think of that would work is Jaboca/Rowap Berries, but due to the inability to use Recycle, this would be insufficient. Is defeating the Segin and Schedar Starmobiles without using moves even possible?

[@KingTheLuck]

@@cullenhutchison6528 they lose their steel typing so sandstorm should be able to take them out no problem!

[@cullenhutchison6528]

@@KingTheLuck Ah, that's true. I had forgotten about Sandstorm still damaging bosses. Hypothetically speaking though, I think it would be impossible if a Starmobile had no contact moves and was Rock/Ground/Steel type or had an ability negating Sandstorm or its damage. It's a good thing those typings were reserved for Titans I guess, for the purposes of this challenge.

[@KingTheLuck]

@@cullenhutchison6528 you're dead right, thank god there isn't one lol those types are typically physical attackers anyway luckily enough so it'd be pretty unusual to not have at least once physical attack

[@Thund3rDrag0n12]

This is a well-made vid and I like the strats, but I wouldn't exactly call this beating the game. You beat the part people associate with Pokemon games, but with Scarlet that's only like a third of the whole story. I'd love to see you redo this challenge 100% and see what you come up with against the Starmobiles and battling Nemona in a scenario where you really have to beat her

[@orangeaurora]

true, though most challenge runs of sc/vi only do victory road. its a shame but also pretty understandable, as titans/starmobiles are really weird and have obscure interactions with pretty much everything that isnt direct damage (starmobiles especially, they have infinite PP and you cant burn/poison them). plus i'm not sure how these cheese strats would hold up against the second arven fight, the final nemona battle, or the ai professor. also the game forces you to use tera blast in the final battle if you faff around and waste turns. so doing area zero without using moves is literally impossible

[@isaacblue4766]
