Thanks again so much to everyone for all the incredible support on the channel. I honestly can't say it enough! All of this has been such a huge passion project for me. A goal of mine was always to make a pokemon video, so I really wanted to do everything I could for this one. 😍 That's all on top of the support since the last video which kept me going despite the video ballooning in scope as it went on.🤣 Anyways, thanks for checking out the channel and I hope the video brings some extra fun to your day! 🥰

So, I don't know if you were aware, but putting a Pokémon with Static in the first spot of your party increases the chance of encountering a Pokémon with Static. Catching an Electrike may have helped in Ruby. Edit: double-checking my facts has led me to realize that it doesn't work in Ruby and Sapphire, just Emerald and later.

X and Y, you can basically have Pikachu as your first encounter in the game it's so close to the starting town. Unless you count the guaranteed pidgey encounter in the second row of the first patch of grass in the game. A little trick, if you ever nuzlocke the game, you can get pokeballs early in the shop in starting town. It has a sign with a pokeball. If you are counting static encounters separately, I think that pidgey falls under the Claus and you can get 2 encounters in the first route in the game.

5:34 You saying that "Bite is still a special move in Gen 2" made me think about the changes that move had over the generations. It started as a Normal move, which meant it was physical in Gen 1. It became a Dark move in Gen 2, which meant it was special, which continued into Gen 3. Gen 4 finally split moves into physical and special rather than having the entire type be one or the other, so it becomes a physical move again. That's just some trivia, it's inconsequential to this run. All that aside, this is a pretty fun idea for a challenge, and I definitely wouldn't mind seeing more like this. If I might make a suggestion, Meowth or Jigglypuff might also be good options since they're also popular enough to be considered mascots.

I get the challenge was to capture Pikachu, so maybe this method would be null and void, but there is a much faster method. The Odd Egg. It can hatch into a Pichu which can then be evolved into a Pikachu. Odd Egg can be obtained as early as Goldenrod at the Daycare. That said, it is not technically catching a Pikachu since 1) You receive the Egg as a gift and 2) It starts off as a Pichu in your possession.

Since you walked right past one in Violett I'll say Toxel grows up to be a way more powerful Pokémon that Pikachu does. :D

This is exactly what came to mind for me too! I didn’t get to mention it in the video, but I agree that it could contribute to the playground rumor of ‘finding pikachu more in one location than another’! Something I was thinking about digging into more in a future video!🧐
