I vividly remember this being such an important part of my morning routine during high school. I had the Semi Clear Green N64 and had the stadium games, two controllers, two game packs and RBY and silver versions. I was old enough to understand that stadium 2 gave you a daily mystery gift and realized how awesome it was. I remember waking up 20 minutes earlier than usual on school mornings just so that I could run downstairs, grab a pack of S’mores Poptarts, run back to my room, boot up the N64 and do the mystery gift event. It took less than 3 minutes and after I got to fawn over whatever thing I got, I gleefully went and got ready for school.

Man I miss how hard things were to obtain in these games, made it all the more worth it. Instead, we get everything handed to us . Thanks for this stroll down nostalgia lane, love the long videos.

These aren't hard to get, they are completely randomized or for the trophies completely fucking insane.

[@HenriqueMelo1989]

*Hey, I've watched some of your shorts and now KZbin recommend this video. Is this is you FIRST video? Really cool editing!*

[@MarvinPowell1]

It's funny. I used to Mystery Gift every morning with my friend and school and spent a minimum of six months doing that every morning with her. So I remember owning both the Big Snorlax and Surfing Pikachu dolls in my bedroom in Gold version. I also owned Onix too, but wasn't a big fan of it, so didn't have it displayed. I think one berry was extremely rare with Mystery Gift as well and I ended up with two of them.

[@josewolf9884]

Im severely impressed at how Gamefreak could create the most convoluted and pointless systems but couldn't be bothered with properly scaling the difficulty on the latter part of the game. No doubt Iwata had to intervene during development.

[@gatordragon6140]

I'm more impressed by how far they have fallen, like how do you go to stuff like everything from first gen to black and white 2 all the way down to how bad Scarlett and Violet are lol

[@solidzack]

Pokémon Stadium in particular is very impressive. There are so many hidden and specific, yet very detailed animations accompanied with fitting sound effects that many people haven't seen yet. It's actually nuts, considering this is the very first generation and their first 3D title

[@Deathnotefan97]

@@gatordragon6140part of it is that the games nowadays are much larger, and they are insisting on keeping a schedule for releasing new games, meaning they are forced to rush That said, I’m pretty sure they have a larger team working in it compared to back them, so it’s not much of an excuse

So happy with long videos. You make my favorite shorts by a long shot now. So having something longer is god-like.

[@Evixyn]

The editing is just astonishing and I had no idea generation two mystery gift was this deep. I never could had figured it out in my youth and did not know the doll collection went that deep. Lucky for me I still have my collection plus action replay with a data dumper so if I wanted to I could obtain those items :)

[@Emperor_Atlantis]

The Stadium 2 dolls are actually in Pokemon Channel and can be bought in Shop n Squirtle, including the Unown Doll...at least it's available easily in that game!

[@TheGasMan666]

Love the Shorts but I would also love if you guys dis longer videos as well! Either way, good stuff!

[@DrSlasher]

Wow, I had the Clefairy poster and I thought it was pretty rare since most of the time we got dolls. Also, after you use Mystery Gift then your opponent in the Viridian Battle House will be the trainer you interacted with (instead of Cal)

[@Mrperson0]

Wow, you guys actually uploaded a video! Glad to see that you went over how the Pikachu Bed, Tentacool Doll, and Unown Doll are impossible to be obtained, especially since this was discovered very recently.

[@buck_on_fire]

That's not true! German KZbinr KarpfeDiem did in a KZbin Documentary!

[@SilvercattoOsom]

Personally, I beg to differ. Someone, somewhere, under the radar, managed to get every single thing within Pokemon GSC, and never told anyone about it because no one must ever know. Personally, for Pokemon games, I think that a Pokedex completion is more than enough for 100%. As for Legends: Arceus, I'm pretty sure I need to perfect every single Pokedex entry as well as completing all the quests. Including the Mythical quests... The only thing I'm missing for the mythical quests is Sword and Shield save data to unlock access to Shaymin. Sure, I already transferred one from BDSP, but there is certain criteria for Pokemon HOME to complete every single Pokedex in that thing, so... yeah. _Can you tell that I'm completely insane?_

[@d0ubleslap]

If they add achievements to Nintendo games, getting the 100% in pokemon is gonna have us all like 👴🏻🧓🏻

[@mathewpercy3292]

Bro I did this when I was 10-15! Horrid. Would not recommend. But, you should change your title. Cause I did do this.

[@mesmorrow]

I wonder how they handled this in the 3DS ports of Silver, Gold and Crystal, however knowing Game Freak they probably did nothing that made nearly all of them unobtainable.

[@d0ubleslap]

believe it or not the 3ds has an ir sensor that works with mystery gift but without any stadium compatibility the rarest items are from those titles are unobtainable still 😩

[@SaleenSundria]

​@@d0ubleslapWow, I knew the 3ds had an ir sensor but it surprised me that they'd even put in the effort. Do you do it with two 3ds copies, or is it possible to use a 3ds copy and a Gameboy copy? Apologies if that's a weird question

[@justinmisiuda48]

The moment when you realized that dead battery ruined all that work

[@goldenlatias152]

Can you get the decorations that don't require the stadium games on virtual console?

[@d0ubleslap]

you're properly out of luck with the stadium items indeed but the mystery gift function will actually work with another 3ds due to it having an IR sensor on top

[@Thematafata]

I'm glad to see you guys made a full length video. I discovered you through shorts and I'm never dissapointed, even if it's info about Pokemon I knew before, you guys somehow manage to either squeeze in info I didn't know or make it so properly entertaining that I enjoy rewatching it :)

[@cecillewolters1995]

I love decorating my room on stadium 2. The day I discovered it actually changed the room on my cartridge was a very pleasant surprise

[@TweennTakashi]

There was a kind of tamagochi pikachu in a mini gameboy called pokemon pikachu that could IR mystery gift with gen 2 games

[@jesiah391]

My best friend and I used a brainboy to reset the in game clock while the other was mystery gifting with the girl on pokemon stadium 2. Wash rinse repeat perfect efficiency back and forth back and forth til I got everything for my room and his game was eventually erased

[@Gungho73]

The rate NOT improving due to duplicates would drive me up a wall.

[@gunbladelad7772]

I legitimately had the Tentacool doll back in the day courtesy of Pokemon Stadium 2. (It also got me the Surfing Pikachu doll). I was admittedly using the PAL UK version, which did come out later than the others.

[@originalkingdomhearts]

This time of pokemon was a double edge sword. You got so much more cool stuff but it was insanely hard to get.

[@lightorchestrator]

[@macauleyliamcurran2925]

Hey guys, amazing long form video, really well made and look forward to seeing more. One bit of criticism, this does kinda feel like your short form content extended for 7 minutes. NOT STRETCHED! It’s not full of filler in fact it’s very snappy and efficient, it could do with ebbing a flowing a little as I was expecting the video to stop after each section. Once you’ve got the pacing down this will be one of the best channels for Pokémon no doubt!

[@macauleyliamcurran2925]

I think you guys have just got so good with brevity and speaking quickly lol which is great because everyone hates people who drone on and stretch out videos. But I do feel you guys can calm down the pacing and let the viewer wind down with the video

[@d0ubleslap]

Haha yeah we've already discussed this at length, and as our first vid we were just thinking of packing in as much content in as possible to keep people engaged regardless of the length, but we totally agree it's a different style of video we need to master

[@geofft7664]

man the only person i knew that played pokemon regularly only had a gameboy pocket then skipped straight to advanced when ruby and sapphire came out so i never had anyone to mystery gift with during gen 2 :(

[@Lantern_Jack]

I wish they brought back in a newer gen the save money from mom feature where after certain milestones she buys exclusive decorations and items for you in the game.

[@timothyn4699]

I remember spending hours trying to catch suicine / Raikou / entei, bc they always jumped grass locations when crossing areas. And when you see them they run, or Roar to cause you to run (dumb, dumb, dumb!) FINALLY caught one of them, and.... their stats and moves were trash. Bunch of wasted effort

[@d0ubleslap]

Atleast nowadays you can always train a legendary up with the candies etc, or does that just take away the magic a bit hmmm 🤔

[@DyxoXinoro]

Now I'm super curious how the time machine held items are programmed. Cause that has to be some kind of weird look up sheet in GSC if Stadium of all things has this unique interaction.

[@DanteCrowlley]

Did someone mae a living dex, one normal one shiny max lvl each in every gen?

[@LucasMartins-lm1ey]

Great video! Everything was great, narration, content, bg music and editing! I never knew that GSC had so many options for decoration

[@reedjohnson5916]

Didn't you need a japanese cell phone and stadium 2 and a friend if you didn't have 2 Gameboys and isn't one of the dolls soft locked just completely unavailable?

[@d0ubleslap]

Some items became unnecessarily rare or impossible to obtain due to a coding oversight and the unown doll in particular is essentially just left over data that the developers ultimately decided they didn't want in the game so it's not tied to any method of obtaining outside of messing with the games code and cheating it in as far as I'm aware

[@dolphwolf8492]

5:25 idk how many of you were ever blessed enough to battle mewtwo on Stadium but it was something different man my brother did a lot of this

[@DinoMoonCreations]

Did you guys know about the pikachu pocket color. Which granted mystery gifts to your pkmn gold. Which was insane at the time. It used the laser function. Which was almost never used on the gameboy.

[@d0ubleslap]

I had the original pikachu pocket back in the day but I found oit about the mystery gift function way too late

[@DinoMoonCreations]

​@@d0ubleslap Pikachu pocket was suprisingly fun. It had a step counter and the pikachu sprite was awesome. I remember spending days shaking the device to get more steps.

[@NoctournalDonut]

Yeah, totally! Let's not forget the room changing with the time of day as well, being it would be late at night in your GBC cart, and it be late at night, with your room dark as well, with only the faint glow of your TV as light. If anyone's curious, the games are as followed. NES ---- Super Mario Bros. Donkey Kong Kirby's Adventure Legend of Zelda SNES --- Super Mario World Kirby Super Star Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past F-Zero N64 --- Super Mario 64 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Star Fox 64 Wave Race 64 Virtual Boy --- None.
