The rival ditches Fearow because it's a free kill to Pikachu, Pikachu is also why he starts with Sandslash in later battles

[@Schlaym]

I never thought about that, that's so smart!

[@zoeyzeebra]

The rivals Ferrow got stolen by team rocket in Saffron city, which is why the rival climbed to the top of Silph Co after knocking out the front guard. Unfortunately Geovani activated the building lock down before he could get to the director's office. So he's stuck waiting by the stairs, then you rock up.

[@jukenryu8127]

Scott: and with his 3.9 % chance to crit…. Scott the very next sentence: what are the odds???? 😂

[@drunkennephilim2995]

I think the rival boxes Fearow because he knows your starter is supposed to be Pikachu and typically would see it stood behind you therefore he chooses to reduce his electric weaknesses by boxing Fearow and leading with Sandslash, a pokemon immune to electric attacks

[@HighPriestFuneral]

That is actually a really good justification. in Yellow it's as if the Rival does actually become smarter, tries to adapt (from a story perspective) to the team the player is expected to have.

[@Knytewish]

@@HighPriestFuneralhe also changes his Eevee based on which fights he wins or loses

[@Cloud_hair]

I didn't know he ditched the bird until a few days ago when I looked at his yellow teams, I was having fun beating spearow with spearow, and fearow with fearow

[@deadpool425fjf8]

I'm going to say that it is simple for the rival: After trying his best to get Spearow to work, he realizes after Pokemon Tower that Fearow is no longer carrying his weight and just boxes it.

[@Kahadi]

The same as happened with Raticate

[@mr.cauliflower3536]

@@KahadiNah

[@ColdHumor]

​@@KahadiThats what I thought growing up. But in the last decade I've seen people saying we killed it.

[@MrKaratechop1726]

​@@ColdHumoras far as lore goes I would say this is true and we also know Pokemon can definitely die. So to say he stressed Raticate to death in training truly speaks to his character which is hinted at through in game text for sure.

[@Silvitewolf]

im more a fan of the idea. that you beat raticate up on the S.S anne and he did the cruise instead of getting off... thus no where to heal. afterall he doesn't have a full team surely an underperforming raticate or fearow is better than a blank space.

[@ktvx.94]

I feel Geodude's level up moveset helps too. I think Rhyhorn only got Stomp at like 30 and by the time it gets anything good you just get the TMs for EQ and Rock Slide.

[@DesmondShannon87]

I like how this guy is so confident in his red and blue sprite with his arm and thum pointing like he saying "hey trainer... if you wanna get outtathere it's this way!"

[@SantaFeSuperChief1]

I appreciated the thumbnail art recreating that old sprite

[@iantaakalla8180]

I am impressed with Geodude. I guess experience rates are really the deciding factor

[@lady1kaka]

Or just luck against Misty...

[@iantaakalla8180]

Both are true. Misty is a hard gate, and the experience gain is what takes the time to get past Misty (and other walls).

[@sandeepssv8930]

Ground resists rock tho so rock throw would be resisted by both Geodude and Onix

[@tomforge614]

I think the logic was STAB+higher base power than Tackle.

[@ericwolf9664]

​@@tomforge614it still is but not by nearly as much as he thought because he overlooked the resistance. Then once you figure in effective power applied by factoring accuracy in it's basically the same.

[@VincentChaos92]

​@@ericwolf9664No, Rock Throw has 50 base power, 75 with stab, resisted = 37.5. Tackle has 35, resisted is 17.5, Rock Throw deals 2 times that damage, the sentence made sense

[@GaIeforce]

Rock Throw does more damage than Tackle, yes. Just remember that Rock Throw also carries a 65% accuracy because Gen 1 is truly special.

[@valor1omega]

​@@GaIeforce I'll be honest I like g1 better than anything past g3.

[@gmanz5]

He lost his Fearow in the Explosions and subsequent darkness of Rock Tunnel against the SD Hiker. And he just hot footed it out the tunnel

[@DFAnton]

"Rhyhorn, believe it or not, is faster than Geodude". Rhyhorn has legs, Scott.

[@aarongeorge8175]

We don’t have any evidence that Defense Curl, Harden, or Acid Armor were ever different (they could have been earlier, but not in the dev data we have). However, you are right about Leer and Tail Whip! Originally, Leer lowered Defense and Special, while Tail Whip just lowered Defense. That makes me think that maybe Harden used to raise Special as well as Defense. They probably changed both of these because the intent was for them to cut or raise the Pokémon’s ability to defend against special attacks, but instead the moves were being used to cut or raise the attack power of special moves, which wasn’t the flavor intent.

[@Zorafin]

Geodude is slowly becoming one of my favorite evolution lines. The only issues are Golem's design and the trade evolution. Besides that, Geodude is so fun to use. I love tossing it out on a physical type and hitting them back hard.

[@havuckofp]

When u upgrade to golem it's awesome

[@JPayne95]

Pokemon go has made me like the evolution line tbh

[@ZeroThreeJuice]

Geodude and Graveler’s designs go really hard. I also don’t like golem that much, but alolan golem is pretty cool.

[@noahsigs]

I have to tell you something I would LOVE to see - Regional Modded version of Kanto mons vs Kantonian forms. Kantonian Golem vs Alolan Golem, Hisuian Arcanine va Arcanine, Galarian Meowth vs Meowth (or modded Purserker vs Persian). That would be awesome

[@valor1omega]

Eww. Why? They are all fugly and I hate them to the point that if I ever seen them in the wild I would do to them what Red's charazard did to an Arboc in the pokemon manga. whoever came up with those versions need to be fired and given a sword before they left. Swords are cool and not a bad good bye gift.

[@davidgardner6677]

FEARow was spooked by the ghosts in the tower and flew away 😭

[@MayVeryWellBeep]

The other day I was thinking about this - with physical/special being tied to type in early gens, Pokémon's defensive stats are essentially a second form of "type weakness" or "type resistance" in those gens. A high special stat grants a degree of resistance to all water attacks, all grass attacks, etc, whereas a low special stat means a weakness to all water moves, all grass moves, etc. This means that Geodude is weak to water and grass 3 times over - because of its rock type, because of its ground type, AND because of its low special stat.

[@TheDarkFiddler]

This is a really interesting perspective, and it makes me wonder how the run would change if you swapped Geodude's Defense and Special, essentially turning the water and grass attacks into a "normal weakness" but returning normal to "normal effectiveness". Geodude would be a great 'mon to test this with, since the only moveset option it really opens up is Fire Blast (and Mimic strats, I suppose) so it isn't making massive changes.

[@Clouded-Logic]

That was something that always bothered me a lot about their early design philosophy.

[@papasalvo]

9:36 idk but this had me dying "ok so once again a difficult water type pokemon" the delivery was just priceless hahahah ahh man

[@stevenpetrillo9527]

Saying Kingdra and seeing the Sprite got me so confused 😂

[@christopherstephens2849]

13:32 it's not his Fearow. one of the guards from Safron loaned him a Spearow to deliver some mail. He simply returned it.

[@samrushin2476]

Kenya believe it?

[@corberus3119]

if thats the case how does he have it in the optional 2nd rival battle west of Veridian before the 1st badge? he's nowhere near Saffron

[@Flying-Skitty]

13:34 He got lost in Rock Tunnel since he didn't have any Pokemon with Flash. Eventually, he was lost for so long, that he had to eat the Fearow to survive 😔

[@tomforge614]

But Lavender Tower is post-Rock Tunnel.

[@Flying-Skitty]

He eventually got out, but with one less bird

[@Zorafin]

I was always frustrated with all the rock/ground types in this game, but playing through with a rock/fighting and ground/ice type, I began to miss the combination. Despite its two quadruple weaknesses, it's really useful for a lot of fights.

[@vreeze33]

Geodude was always one of my go to early game pokemon. Especially in gen 2 since you get it so early. It resist so many pokemon that are common in the early game and its good against a lot of evil team pokemon, too.

[@Zorafin]

I guess dumb kid me went "Oh I can oneshot it, it's not good" You can oneshot it...with things that I can oneshot!

[@hardsalami105]

I always get so excited whenever I see you upload a new video, unlike any other youtuber. Thank you for putting out great content!

[@HighPriestFuneral]

Glad to see the Professor being a bit of a challenge this time. Two water types against a 1st stage ground/rock was a bit rough. Overall quite an interesting set of results!

[@incorrectdigit]

Fearow Theory: After Lavendar town, your rival realizes fearow just isn't keeping up, and boxes it so he can trade with a certain silph co employee for a lapras, he's in the room ready to make the trade but gets mistaken for a team rocket member by the person he's su pposed to trade with, in explaining you show up, beat him, your rival in frustration walks off, and the poor silph employee gives you the lapras as a thanks for helping get rid of team rocket.

[@brandontownsend2756]

He was going to catch a pokemon and boxed the Fearow before the trip so his new pokemon would be in his party immediately. Idk, that's the best fearow theory I have

[@Kanbei11]

I wonder if the defence curl/harden thing is related to either movesets being based on what the pokemon should have thematically and/or to give players the opportunity to de facto relearn moves in the absence of the move reminder

[@TripleShizzle]

Great run! Before the last Dragonite an option is defence curl against the aerodactyl who can't really hurt to outspeed with the badge boost. Love your videos!

[@perkypenguin1663]

I guess Geodude being able to weaponize the badge boost glitch as well as its medium slow growth rate made the difference (also at 37:44, you used the Geodude cry for Rhydon). Good video!

[@christianvz105]

I've really enjoyed your content so far and I specially like seeying rock type playthroughs since it's one of my favourite Pokémon types. I would love to see Lunatone and Solrock any time soon since I really love them both!

[@garrett7261]

awesome video Geodude always wanted to use a golem in pokemon yellow but never got a chance to but then in fire red I ended up using one on my Gameboy advanced keep up the great content Scott always enjoy these videos and keep up your hard work

[@bitterzombie]

The Prof. Oak fight is a good way to close, mewtwo is fun in theory but it in a standard game the challenge was more about catching it. Assuming you used your master ball on one of the legendary birds, catching mewtwo with ultaballs can be tough, even with a team of pokemon that beat the elite 4

[@thebigbean8783]

Geodude is a tough one to use. I love using a graveler and these days golem now that i have 2 gameboys (and two transfer paks 👀) but getting through the early stages of geodude is rough. I wish you the best of luck in this grueling journey

[@Hoxeel]

11:12 The odds, Scott, were about 3.91%. Jokes aside, that is phenomenal luck!

[@ilbabo2218]

[@miqvPL]

Kingdra edit was so random, I loved it

[@grundgutigertv6170]

The venomoth type switch is back 😂

[@SmashMath151]

This one was surprisingly consistent once it got enough Speed for key battles! Another small advantage Geodude has over Rhyhorn is a badge boosting move, when it can get setup.

[@HideoV]

I think the rival having a spearow is a reference to the spearow attack episode. Maybe it was the plan all along to box it after Erika?

[@pyromaniak2736]

Talking about the ryhorn line makes me think future gen evos/Prevos would be good ideas for back ported runs. Like rypherior magbe and electovire

[@NativeGolfer10]

I know the slow growth rate absolutely kills times for those with it, but I don’t think that’s why Geodude beats Rhyhorn though. Geodude has a badge boosting move and I know Rhyhorn doesn’t get one through level up to help it through it’s rough patches. If Rhyhorn doesn’t have that explains why it struggles so much when Geodude might succeed. Your playthrough was impressive. I definitely thought you would end up with a worse time than that. Great job Scott!

[@RoninCatholic]

Actually, Withdraw is also identical in effect to Defense Curl and Harden too. They just seem to have really liked defense boosts in gen 1. I hear that despite different text, Reflect also boosts Def by 2 stages instead of halving damage another way.

[@dragonslayerz2220]

Reflect does actually halve damage. Barrier and Acid Armor are +2 defense.

[@Tsokio]

No joke, this is the first time I've seen the Gambler with the Poliwag and Horsea in literal years

[@ptiscool3334]

Great content as usual

[@JacktheRah]

I've got an idea for a special run: Take one of the Pokemon which struggled the hardest with Brock and Misty and afterwards was sweeping and replay it in an open world version of Pokemon Yellow. Meaning you get access to and the ability to use every HM required for the playthrough. Maybe chose one that can't learn surf. Fly is only partially useful as you still can only fly to cities you've visited already. But it'd be interesting to see what happens to Pokemon with a lot of potential if you remove the biggest barrier at the beginning.

[@jakerockznoodles]

My own theory regarding the Defense Curl/Harden thing is that it may be related to the fact that there really was a very limited number of moves available in Gen 1 and some pokemon just had their moveset lengthened with "filler moves". You know, that are there to give a feeling of progression while leveling up but they couldn't think of anything better to teach it. Incidentally, this is why when I created my own romhack for the game the first thing I did was add around 90 moves (which I tried to split evenly between the types), which radically changes the dynamics of the game.

[@TheDarkFiddler]

And is this hack available? 👀 Or still a WIP?

[@HavenKhaos]

The "I've planned for every stat experience to have precisely enough speed to outspeed the Gyarados" is machivallian planning.

[@Willingmess]

Fearow left on a journey to figure out what Venomoth’s type is

[@PureStealth]

[@chrissaxton7085]

In regards to your harden/defense curl/acid armor theory, if correct, that means that sand attack or smokescreen would have been designed to reduce accuracy by 2 stages 😂what a nightmare

[@anni321]

Yeah Geodude! Love that lil' guy!

[@ryomaanime4563]

Fearow disappear because it's weak. Blue isn't shown as a trainer with a big heart. He knows pokemons, and he want only the best. It's especially true after Raticate's death. No matter his love for Rattata, and no matter how strong this Rattata was, he died. He blames himself, he blames Rattata's weakness. He closed his heart and is looking for efficiency only so that it doesn't happen again. There's a manga developing this aspect it's great edit> it's called Pokemon : festival of champions

[@llSuperSnivyll]

Some time ago, I tried to do a solo Geodude playthrough in Red, with the difference being that the trainer rosters were randomized. It... actually did quite well, until I got to the Elite Four. Lorelei was changed from an "Ice" specialist into a Water specialist.

[@WillowEpp]

27:16 Heheh, NICE-ly done! As for BUTT's Fearow, he boxes it because he thought flying everywhere was making him lazy.

[@prebuilttarget7191]

Hey Scott ive got a question can you use the program you use for the stats to track the stat exp if so you can use the color behind it to fill it up like a bar the more exp the more full it is

[@bateltheassistant]

The dude has done it ! The medium slow growth rate was coming in handy,and if added to that a badge boosting move with 2 good options for stab ,then Geodude is pretty decent. Adding seismic toss in early game made a difference when it comes to the resets. Even though most of Geodude's resets on second playthrough were due to bad luck and it's atrocious special capabilities with dealing with 4 times damage from stab water and grass moves.🤔 But overall Geodude as a first stage pokemon is really good in yellow. I'm glad that Geodude got better results than before,and it even got a better ranking than Ryhorn did . Which leads to a conclusion that better level up moves and better growth rate can lead to better results in a solo run.😊

[@TheWispGuy]

10:59 Geodude saw Starmie, and knew he had to take it out asap.

[@shellbadorsrival314]

The rival treats fearow as his weakest link, so while on the S.S. Anne, on the top deck, fearow sees it's chance to escape: flying away where no one can chase it over the water

[@MrVelyx]

"When he dies, he dies" -Drago from Rocky

I did have the same theory about Tail Whip/Leer, mainly because so many Pokémon learn both and almost all of them learn Tail Whip first. I really do think Leer used to lower by two stages during development.

[@dr0g_Oakblood]

2:14 - I mean Ground still resists rock so it’s still not very effective, but it does get stab so that’s correct, tho with decreased accuracy it’s a mixed bag. Edit: with stab even with lowered accuracy, it’s about 48 effective base power to tackle’s 33, so when resisted it’s ~24 to 16, all rounded down of course.

[@Gentledude.]

for obvious reasons, i love this.

[@dr0g_Oakblood]

19:07 - so that’s a fun interaction, it seems that Earthquake doesn’t hit digging Pokémon in Gen 1, I wonder if that’s a Gen 3 mechanic?

[@TheForebringer]

Random suggestion Scott, for rerun videos you could use the shiny sprite to show its a rerun vs a normal run to help distinguish them at a glance? Also, I admit I kinda just want to see shiny Geodude.

[@Smileyrat]

I like the idea also, but shiny sprites do a sparkle when reliced, and that slows them down.

[@dr0g_Oakblood]

0:27 - TIL lmao, you could’ve quizzed me on that and I would have gotten it wrong, I just assumed it was Rock-Ground like all its other Kanto peers of Onix and the Geodude-evo line.

[@darkhydrat9096]

Completely unrelated to the video, but the Venomoth gag reminded me of that the Venomoth from the Jungle set in the card game can change its type

[@richarddill692]

It didn't come up, but Rock Throw wouldn't have done neutral damage to Brock's Pokémon. Rock may not resist Rock, but Ground does, and both of his Pokémon are Rock-Ground Types.

[@TheOriginalJphyper]

Which means it would only be 2.5 points stronger than Tackle.

[@richarddill692]

​@@TheOriginalJphyper more like 20, when you apply STAB, but with the low levels your Pokémon and Brock's are at, it's still nearly negligible in terms of damage output.

@@richarddill692 Rock Throw is base 50 power. Add STAB and that's 75 power. Then halve it for type effectiveness and you get 37.5, which is, of course, precisely 2.5 points higher than Tackle's base 35 power. I don't know how you could've ended up with 20.

Not to mention its 60% accuracy. I’d say on average, tackle is a little better in this situation.

Sandslash is the counter to your starter, Eevee is his starter, Alakazam is insanely strong, and he has a fire/water/grass core with Magneton being a better version of your starter if he doesn't have Jolteon (which I feel is his 'canon' mon because of Red's team). Fearow not only doesn't really slot into his team, it is explicitly weak to your starter, dropping it is the logical choice.
