I know that you probably aren't going to see this, but you might not have actually finished this challenge. It's an extremely rare occurrence, but there is a small chance that you can see the TV flashing in either the player's house or a random building on any day. It's possible to find a Swarm of Pokémon that you can't normally find in your game, such as Seedot in Sapphire. I remember reading a forum online years ago about this, and I was just reminded when going through my original Sapphire's save that I backed up and was checking, with the TV telling me about the Swarm of Seedot on Route 102. So while Swarms supposedly only occur after beating the game... you're still needing to catch those Seedot as well as any other Pokemon that are Swarm exclusive.

Another great challenge!! This looks like the most fun one to me imo thanks to the rare candies, but that might also just be my Hoenn bias leading me to believe that! Not being able to Fly that long must have been fairly frustrating! Also, I'm sure these things have been mentioned by people in the comments before, but I figured I might as well note them here in case they haven't: -Slugma's ability actually doesn't reduce the hatch time until Emerald, much like the Compoundeyes ability, so your Wynaut hatch was still the full time -Magneton and Electrode present an interesting dilemma in New Mauville, since they're both available in the wild there at 1% - I wonder if it would be quicker to chance finding them and catching them or if it would pay off more in the long run to grind for more candies with Voltorb and Magnemite like you did -I had NO IDEA you could fish at Ever Grande before using Waterfall - I always thought that Luvdisc was the most pointless post-badge 8 Pokemon (still doesn't make it any more useful though lol) -Was happy to see "WHY" take up residence in the party as a pickup-er after a while LOL Great and inspiring video as always, man!!

“Scolded by one of Like, two people with facial hair in this region.” Scot’s right, we need more beards in Pokémon.

[@Calculated_Error]

30:12 "in the north we can find a weird looking pysduck" cant believe you got two shinies this playthrough

[@butteredsalmonella]

He encountered atleast 1 million pokemon in this playthrough, getting a shiny or two should be expected.

[@ChloeS25]

omg this is my first time watching videos like these. I didn't even know this was a challenge, but I loved your video. Your humor is on point. Loved the "weird looking psyduck", the timing when you cut off your zapdos-intolerance joke, archie's inability to remember kyogre's color, etc. lol

Using Zigzagoons to get nuggets and other special items. *_STONKS!_*

Sceptile

[@hopkinstreeexperts759]

Gotta be honest, the reminder at the end to like a vid is so worth it. This isn’t as small of a “byte” as an Instagram reel or something so I often forget to like the videos of my favorite creators. But I did make sure to like this one!

[@RyutaShinohara]

A team with Sceptile and having +400.000 pokequarters before the first gym Im- 30:11 shINY PSYDUC-

[@redacted5976]

I'm looking forward to gen 4 and 5(B2) despite this only just coming out (What can I say I like watching you do these)

[@shadowtitanx3962]

Also, X and Y will take a long time to do. Assuming that he does not Wonder Trade.

[@RealmOfUnknown]

I had no clue that you could play around with the order of gyms like this..

[@PandoraFoxo]

Be careful you can softlock if you do them in a certain order I know cause I've done it I had to reset my save which had a shiny pooch cause I couldn't progress

[@RealmOfUnknown]

@@PandoraFoxo really? I’m assuming it’s Surf related or something like that?

[@Ghost-ed3oi]

Do a professor Oaks challenge for Pokémon platinum!

[@MEGA__MEW-2]

He just did this one give him time

[@benvandezande9411]

He indeed did the "catch em all" on this gen, but the prof. Oak's challenge will be a pain in the butt I think

[@eddiemate]

Chances are like every other POC, he’ll do Diamond and Pearl.

[@MEGA__MEW-2]

@Help Yoshi Stop Eating he takes longer then a day to recored

[@eddiemate]

Help Yoshi Stop Eating But "like a day" implies roughly around 24-48 hours, when he likely would’ve been scripting and editing in that time period.

[@viniciuscorrea9419]

Good luck on DPP, incredible sloooowwww games. Anyway, loving the series

[@KoigYT]

I would love to see a TAS of this where every wild encounter gives all the pickup mons 5 Rare Candies

[@mofred100]

Could have caught Wild Electrode in Team Aqua Hideout :]

[@AmyraCarter]

Or in New Mauvile as well as Magneton.

[@amwfan88]

True story; when I first played Sapphire back in 2003, not only did I do the trade for the Makuhita, but I kept it on my team, where it became one of my core members. It's been so long since I played, but I think I also had a Swampert and Swellow on my team as well.

So happy to see zigzagoon getting the love it deserves (:

[@Akechi_The_Phantom_Detective]

I just love the idea of siking 5 zigzagoon on the loose to get me back my shiny goodies.

[@Eskiii]

ShakyWillow But he got the shiny zigzagoon and said it was like the worst shiny to get.

[@ShakyWillow]

@@Eskiii Nintendo just hasn't recognized the true power of zigzagoon and gave it a mediocre shiny

[@Tree_-wp5zn]

I love zig he is my best Pokemon After a battle he gives me a treat

[@mati28287]

how the fuck yall dont find ralts easily? 3 wild pokes for me and its fukin' done wtf

[@amandaandkayla8427]

Oh once it took me 2minutes to find ralts

[@Justincredible24]

An easy way to get ralts is have a lvl 4 pokemon in the front of your party and use a repel

"Why couldn't the electric type Pokémon eat any ice cream?" "Because he was overcharged."
