Facts

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

Larry really is a whole mood. Larry is the GOAT. The reveal of Larry as an Elite Four member was something, but him trolling us by using Flying-types instead as we get out our Fighting-types was genius. Not only does he have his job as a salaryman, he also has to work as both a Gym leader and an Elite Four member. He lives up to the title of "Exceptional Everyman". His lines are even better in the Japanese version. He said he uses Komala, a Pokémon that is always asleep, because that is "what all salarymen truly desires".

[@Jaimee1204]

I can imagine myself reading this comment before finishing the game and saying, WHAT? LARRY IS PART OF THE ELITE FOUR?! But I've finished the game so I didn't yell that

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Oinkologne is meant to be pronounced like cologne. This references the fact male Oinkologne uses its flower-like tail to unleash a concentrated sweet scent to cover its body to attract female Pokémon, while female Oinkologne are surrounded by a floral scent that soothes nearby Pokémon, according to the Pokédex. Both of these have different abilities, Lingering Aroma for the males (exclusive to just male Oinkologne; changes the opponent's ability to Lingering Aroma when hit by a contact move) and Aroma Veil for the females (just like Lechonk and also an ability of Spritzee and Aromatisse; protects it and allies from moves that limit their move choices).

[@coldramen3744]

I will always say it (oink-oh-loin)

You're about to be able to be a full-time youtuber, specifically a poketuber! Congratulations! You understood and mastered the craft before your first upload and made perfectly click able and high retention content which you knew would blow up immediately. Absolute mastery right here, great job bro.

[@thenintendnub64]

Finally, another human who catches all their mons on regular Pokeballs! (at least for this video) It feels especially good to get your shiny legendaries in them.

[@tiredveryissage]

YES HELLO HI THERE FELLOW POKEBALL USER i hate all the other pokeballs i just want the plain red 😭

[@thenintendnub64]

@@tiredveryissage The other ones aren't bad, I just like the simplicity of the original the best. Which one is your least favorite? Mine is the Great Ball

[@dante_red]

same here

[@KumikoEri98]

same, regular pokeballs for everything, but premier balls for shinies

[@tiredveryissage]

@@thenintendnub64 i only just saw this sorry lmao,, but id prob say luxury ball (just off the top of my head) idk the less detail on my pokeballs the better sjjdhd

[@aiemyeah952]

That note that shows up with all of the scratched out names at 23:48 is exactly what I do all the time, got nearly a full small notebook filled with that crap haha

[@Silentgrace11]

Definitely feeling the "don't use the master ball on a legendary" vibe! The power of stubbornness prevails! (unless of course it's a roaming legendary like in the gen 2 games, then yeah no, I'm using that damn master ball lol). I've kept ahold of mine for now, and I'm either going to hoard it like I tend to do, or I'll use it on a particularly aesthetic shiny.

[@SandKyuubi]

I did this same challenge and have a full living dex of pokeball only catches. Now I'm working on the living shiny dex.

[@Warriorcat_Youtube]

A shiny Dex of only pokeballs I should hope

[@FMOLETTE]

Steel sandwich helps riolu hunts because riolus will often spawn with Lucario. That’s how I got mine while looking for a shiny Lucario

[@noahd5672]

I totally agree about the lighting making Pokémon look shiny. I had a terrible time earlier today hunting glaceon since the shade made every freaking glaceon look shiny. It was a complete nightmare but at least I got the shiny.

[@Warriorcat_Youtube]

SV is both a blessing(plentiful shinies) and a curse(horrible lighting that makes everything look shiny and makes you look like a schizo)

[@Justin131993]

Did not realize this was a challenge. I have only ever used regular pokeballs.

[@stormym.1973]

I'm the exact same way if I have different pokeballs it feels cluttered it especially irks me when you can see the pokeballs on the healing table

[@pixlnovaofficial]

Your videos are really well put together and inspired me to make my own Sc/Vi videos!

[@paperip1996]

I'm in the process of completing my living dex with premire balls only.... man I miss my scrappy false swipe pangoro. A lot of luck going into catching all these new ghosts

[@AllegedlyHuman]

You can also use trick and give them ring target so false swipe will work, but a lot of them know curse so there's that too. Really miss Pangoro too though

[@Luis_is_Unlucky]

Yes you can, and I always do. I've only ever caught stuff in basic pokeballs because I got ocpd. Which results in me yelling at my screen for everything to just stay in the freaking amzingly low catch rate pokeball for a few days😂

[@tiredveryissage]

either im really lucky with catching pokemon in regular pokeballs or im just super patient and enjoy catching pokemon,,, maybe both

[@memoalfaro487]

I've been doing this challenge since emerald, even some legendaries. It has formed a love hate relationship with the games.

[@MazerTime]

Someone sponser him he already nailed the transitions!

[@therealcanada12]

I swear if his first sponsor is going to be raid I will freak out

[@mysteriousmog51]

Nice video really enjoyed it it felt like a casual playthrough more than a challenge but it was really good! also I am all for catching legends in regular poke balls. I do it with every legendary

[@anamaleth_ad]

super fun video! always brightens my day to see you've uploaded a new one on this channel! :]

[@drywalltele9435]

cant believe youre a new youtuber! this is great content and well edited! subbed :)

[@ampersand6397]

As someone with the tism if I don’t use the same kind of pokeball for every Pokémon I catch I get overwhelmed by which ball I should use, so yes, can confirm. Good to see someone else do it!

[@kirbogw2]

You should have way more subs. Your narration is very entertaining and i hope your career as a KZbinr skyrockets!

[@sansael6760]

Good content man! Can’t wait to see more from you!

[@samuelpockey7052]

I love all the youtubers references very entertaining

[@MagusAgrippa8]

Yes, yes you can. Did it myself. Caught nearly everything in the game in basic poke balls, all with mostly just knocking them below half health and paralyzing them. Crit captures happened often, even caught the second Miraidon in one on my thirteenth or so ball. The only thing I didn’t catch in poke balls were the treasure legends. I used Luxury Balls on them for aesthetic and they’re no stronger than the basic ball anyway.

[@Grayeyedwolf]

that poke rap just earned you a sub buddy ! (watching your video while i try to see how many shiny pokemon i can catch in 24 hrs. I'm up to 13 at the moment with 7 hrs left

[@shadow_4_it]

Interesting video concept ... please keep the unique content coming!

[@big_axolotl_]

I already did this and have a full living dex including all the raid den event pokemon and now have over 150 shiny pokemon in regular pokeballs. (yes I caught the raid den event pokemon in regular pokeballs as well as walking wake and Iron leaves in regular pokeballs too)

[@blaskiewicz]

same!!! i have 999 pokeballs on me at all times lmao

[@leftchaotix]

rowlet enjoyer and stock pokeball only user... seems we are not so different great video, keep it up.

[@SolisAstral]

Yo! Super happy to see a new video from you! You're awesome, and a big inspiration. I dedicated my latest video to you actually, since your content got me into shiny hunting! All the best 🎉

[@AdminAbuse]

Why does the Fursona have to be present on your yt? Awful

[@kharitheblueanteater9592]

Fun Fact: I actually somewhat did this as in catch every Pokémon in a pokeball except for the legends but yay I caught all of them in a pokeball(iron valient and roaring moon to at full health)

[@SaltyMCnug]

I have watched do meny pokemon KZbinrs but even though your a new KZbinr your my favorite pokemon KZbinr I love your videos and theres just something about this KZbin channel than has a place in my heart❤ I love your videos and I hope this channel will be a channel that people can call out.

[@tripodscorpion8932]

great video! just subbed!! keep it up!!

[@jolteur7116]

You can do it, I've got a living-dex of only basic balls Pokémon. Great content, keep it up.

[@Hazza.watson]

Bro I can’t believe how new you are, and you’re already my favourite KZbinr

[@mooreshmallow]

No idea how, but I did end up with an extra Master Ball. At first I thought maybe I just didn’t use it, but the wild Koraidon was right there in a Master Ball. Came in handy for Ting-Lu, though, because I forgot to save before fighting it.

[@carvelcake]

you can re encounter them if you lose

[@carvelcake]

or accidentally kill then

[@ProfJeffy]

27:57 You can, but only when wifi is switched off. You can use local communication from the same account. It works a little worse now since with SwSh you were always connected with local communication if you weren't online. But if you start searching on your main switch and then open your other game on your second switch it will work. Same goes for union circles

[@UVB_User]

1:12 would be a perfect manscape sponser moment

[@therealcanada12]

[@lukastheperson853]

wow, amazing vid! you need WAY more veiws.

[@dasbreaduntsunts3084]

My brother has been doing this ever since gen 4 and I have followed in his footsteps ever since gen 6. Idk why he started it but I just do it too out of habit now. Love the video tho keep it up :)

[@doctorowl9473]

Me already knowing the answer because I've been playing like this for ages. Well done tho it's nice to see other succeed in this challenge aswell ^^

[@amberukiseve]

Without watching the video... Yes, I did exactly that, (except the poison terra Sligoo that I caught in a premier ball for whatever reason...) But even my legendary, I completed my Pokedex with all red pokeballs

[@obits3]

Tip: If you are enough of a Pokémon fan that you’re running it on two switches, it might be worth it to invest into both physical cartridges and digital downloads. Doing so allows you to run either game at the same time without moving a cartridge back and forth or being locked out due to digital restrictions. Obviously not for everyone, but I make a lot in my day job, so getting rid of inconvenient things to fully play everything these games can do was worth it to me. This is especially useful if you want to save a raid on your second switch and then use local union room to keep playing it while being able to go online on your main switch.

[@GumCow]

I only used pokeballs in my playthrough, and I completed the dex that way. It wasn't difficult at all

[@BlkboyShino9696]

Yes You can and I have,that’s the only pokeball I use unless I want a pokeball to match a shiny I caught actually next to the heal ball the regular pokeball is my favorite pokeball it’s so iconic❤❤

[@Dior_Wilson]

So... I decided to shiny hunt rowlet, and I some how got it in 3 eggs! Granted, it was masuda with a shiny charm.But it's still cool!

[@Twinklethefox9022]

Ok im so glad someone said it. I remember that i found a shiny beldum that i wasn't prepared for and used my master ball. I showed it off in a pokemon community and so many people said i wasted my masterball and i could have used it for for the tapus or the box art legendaries. And at that time, i already caught them all, even if i didn't, i feel like that would be a waste of the masterball. Like you can reset your game to try and catch the legendaries, you couldn't do that with a shiny (at that point in sun)

[@stormym.1973]

I caught all 6 of my shiny beldum in red PokeBall

[@jomyd6903]

Challenge idea 💡 Play Pokemon S/V but you can only use one of every type of pokeball

[@pspauloplayz4295]

Caught Ting-Lu in a nest ball for colour matching but for some reason it worked very well on it? It rocked 3 times twice then I caught it on the third ball

[@Erifire]

Me who does this already: In all seriousness though, super awesome video!

[@GonzaSpeaksOut]

I've been doing that since I started, I only have six Pokémon out of the 250 I caught that aren't in a regular pokeball being three shines, ceruledge armarouge and a traded Rowley from my friend

[@Lord_of_commencement]

Hey there! I’m loving this channel so far, you’re quickly becoming one of my favourite Pokétubers, keep it up man!

[@j4nella1404]

I've just started the video, but I already done that before! Took a lot of pokeballsand lots of time haha

[@Jenseditz]

I only just subscribed to you because this is amazing

[@Cosmic-Flare-Pokemon]

ngl, when he was listing all the pokémon at the start of the video, it sounded like the og ending theme for pokémon

[@mohamedspyro2545]

Lucario is my chad when you said how much damage will it do I instantly chose one shot .

[@Zarren_Redacted]

This is just how I play Pokemon, except I use Premier balls for Legendaries.

[@wildtacocat]

I catch every Pokémon I think I’ll ever use for a battle in a normal pokeball cuz I like them the best outta all of the pokeballs so it’s definitely possible as I also did all the legendary Pokémon as well with the only exception being Miraidon as I thought the Ultra Ball matches the design on his head really well and since I don’t use legendary Pokémon too often I allowed it

[@tiredveryissage]

i ALWAYS make sure my party pokemon are in the same type of pokeball (regular pokeballs) so that when you put them in the pokemon center theyre all the same pokeballs

[@wildtacocat]

@@tiredveryissage THATS LITERALLY WHY FOR ME TOO! When I needed a Great Tusk for me team I even had to ask my friend to catch it in a normal pokeball for me too lol

[@bennettfleming4209]

in my defense, i got SO MANY hacked lv 100 shiny mons ranging from competitive biulds to starters to paradoxes, so i now have 27 master balls in my bag. i did not care to waste 3 of them on miraidon and the last 2 shrines to complete my dex.

[@tpbbubbles21]

I only use Pokeballs in every game, unless its mandatory to use another ball. (Such as second legendary in Legends Arceus).

[@rubbermetal]

I was absolutely expecting a manscaped ad with that setup 😂

[@MoosedUp]

I wish people would make living dexs when they did these challenges, they ain’t that much harder but they so much better

[@Your_friendly_amigo]

I literally have been doing this since sun and moon and every other game that came next😅 I just like how it looks, it’s simple and also cuz like in the anime they mostly use pokeball so that’s also why

[@tiredveryissage]

and when you look at your party all your pokemon will be in the same type of pokeball

[@Your_friendly_amigo]

@@tiredveryissage exactly, someone gets it🤝

[@lifedragon99]

I always use the premier ball. Well, I used it in Alola and then again in Paldea, idk why I didn't in Galar, but moving forward I'll always catch my living dex in Premier Ball.

[@blaskiewicz]

i have a living dex in pokeballs, never used any other ball in my playthrough! it's also female only (unless 100% male or has a different form when male)!! doing a shiny dex now in poke balls :-)

[@Koc3813]

Classic balls are probably one of the best not only they are cheap so you can just spam ungodly amounts instead of 1 quick ball + some ultra also every single pokémon can look good with normal balls but some balls just don't do it for some pokémons

[@weirdgroup2887]

A better trick to evolve rellor, bramblin and pawmo is go to poco path lighthouse and climb it then do 7 laps and then level the Pokémon yp

[@Shadowboy0678]

Every pokemon game I've ever played has been with Pokeball only, idk why but i just prefer the look and its more consistent when looking through boxes and parties.

[@MikaylaJLaird]

You can trade between two files on the same account, as long as it's on two different switches. Just disconnect from the wifi on one of them. Not Flight mode, just disconnect.

[@MuonDreemurr]

I already have a completed Pokédex with only poke balls under the same OT (I have OCD) Although, I catch all sub-legendaries in premiere balls, all legendaries in luxury balls, all paradox Pokemon in timer balls and all ultra beasts in beast balls.

[@kuroryuken]

I used the Master Ball for Miraidon because it fits the Colour Scheme I also used a Master Ball on Shiny Male Salandit because it (kinda) matches the Colour scheme too I ain't faulting anyone for using a Master

[@KumikoEri98]

I already catch my pokemon in regular pokeballs, but still an entertaining video XD

[@jinoobtube]

was literally following john austin guide for the 4 mythic as well

[@MihuKat]

Hey there, trails fellow Pokemon enthusiast! I just stumbled upon your amazing content and I have to say, your dedication and expertise in the game is truly impressive. As someone who is also passionate about gaming and creating content, I'm considering adding some Pokemon content to my channel alongside my Monster Hunter speedruns. I think it's important to diversify my channel and offer my viewers something new and exciting to enjoy. I'm curious to know what you think about adding different types of content to a channel. Do you think it's worth it to mix things up and offer your viewers a wider range of content? Regardless, I just wanted to let you know that your Pokemon videos are fantastic and I look forward to checking out more of your content in the future. Keep up the great work!

[@trailspokemon]

Sometimes game diversity can work, but not always. I actually come from making Dauntless content in that same genre, and for me, creating this channel to do the pokemon content separately may just go down as the best decision I've ever made. Very likely these same exact videos on my original channel would have a fraction of the number of views. You may wonder "why should I start from scratch?" Put simply, if your current subscribers aren't interested in the content you've made, then they hurt the performance of that content

[@MihuKat]

@@trailspokemon keep going never give up on ur goal its there to be chased^^! future plans? besides beeing consistent? have good one bless u with health and the best!

[@AkemiStormBorn]

Considering that I forgot about the existence of Quick Balls for most of the game, I did catch most of my Pokemon with regular Pokeballs. Gimme the classic red ball! Best ball! I literally only use different balls for shinies. Then there was Miraidon... after using 30 regular pokeballs, I was annoyed and put it in a Great ball. I honestly wish I got it in a master ball just for the M.

[@academiconaoinstruido57573]

I have played all pokemon games using only the pokeball besause I hate the design of the other balls with rare exceptions like the ones made by Kurt which only features in a few games. I must say that it is a run itself to catch them all using only the pokeball but it is fun and very accomplishing once you do it.

[@SpeedyTatsugiri]

lets be honest manscaped would have been the perfect sponsor lmao

[@Beegirl12345]

I have caught 2 full odds, non outbreak, random, shinys, a yungoose, and a magnamite

[@ildoda]

23:12 fun fact: you don't need PP restoring items at all. When you end a move's PP, you can overwrite it by remembering some other move, and then teach the move you had before again. This will replenish the PP count. The only downside of that is that egg moves cannot be remembered, so you'll need the PP items if you're using an egg move.

[@trailspokemon]

and it doesn't restore the PP ups you've used. But you get like 10-30 of each pp item as you pick things up around the world, so it's not like I was buying them

[@ildoda]

@@trailspokemon true, I didn't think about PP ups! Anyway, I thought this was a nice quirk of the game to share, which I discovered only a few days ago while farming Chanseys in the exact same Area Zero cave 😃

[@misterycard3948]

Since sun and moon I didn’t catch any Pokémon with any other ball then the normal pokeball except for the game legendaries I still caught them withheld masterball since I did that in every game I have

[@The_Oli_Channel]

I got my koridon in a pokeball just because it matches, it wasn’t as bad as I thought only taking 10 tries

[@gaminglegends1878]

[@thegamebro4565]

It took me 100 hours after game launch to make a living dex with just normal pokeballs.

[@abarbienamedken3334]

I've never used a master ball because I only had the one and there are always more than one legendary. So I try and catch them with ultra balls and junk then end up never using it 😅 i hoard it like a dragon. All of my pokemon saves still have a master ball in the box items or storage 😆

[@williamplayz_yt6973]

Pokémon with matching Pokè balls that i can think of right now: Koraidon: Poké ball Miraidon: Master ball Rayquaza: Dusk ball Lucario: Moon ball (or whatever the blue, black, and yellow one is called idk) Umbreon: Ultra ball Kyogre: Great ball Groudon: Poké ball

[@Zenalam]

I mained violet then decided to start violet and try beating it in a day and didn’t really care to play it much Then over time I started liking it more Now I main scarlet And literally after catching 8 shinies and beating the main game AND post game I had not caught igglybuff happiny and fidough

Ive done this since 2016? I think? Its just how i play, especially after i found out how easy S/M are, realistically.
