I Completed Pokemon Crystal's INSANE Pokedex

[@JohnstoneYT]

Update on the Shiny Cyndaquil odds! I had no idea that "weather-boosted" spawns have an increased chance of better IVs (1/1728), so the ACTUAL odds of finding it were roughly 1 in 10,800,000 (1/1728 x 1/250 x 1/25) ...I still don't think I'm ever going to top that regardless LMAO

Wild Cyndaquil were Weather Boosted by the sun on his end, which makes the IV floor to 4/4/4 and brings the odds of a Hundo to 1/1728 instead of 1/4096. Final odds would be 1/(1.08*10^7) instead of 1/(2.56*10^7). Still exceptionally impressive nonetheless.

[@BJMashPotato]

Hey, so just so you're aware, the reason the diploma didn't print well at the end isn't because of the printer, nor the game, but the paper. The GB Printer uses a specific type of paper, one that loses it's effectiveness over time. If your printer came with paper from the 90s, odds are that that's why it didn't work. It's a thermal paper, which like I said deteriorates over time, but it shouldn't be too hard to find some replacements on eBay, assuming you still want to print out your diploma and have it look good

[@SnakebitSTI]

Yeah, Seiko S-950 thermal paper is a drop in replacement.

The clock reset feature was probably a debug thing that they re-enabled in the western versions because they had to program Daylight Saving Time into the game, and thankfully for us, they conveniently didn't comment it out before sending it out for retail.

[@myhandleiswhat]

@@orangeaurora Why not? They probably just had it initially for testing purposes, we don't (to my knowledge) have any builds with debug mode still in them. Crystal is a Gameboy Color only release, it's possible they changed the combination to test other features at some point too. I don't think they intended the feature to be used this way, seeing how later Pokemon games will punish you for changing the date. I'm not going to pretend to know how they handled localizing these games outside of Japan.

Fun fact! In Gen 1, Professor Oak actually does give you five Poke balls! Unfortunately the conditions are very specific, so its doubtful that many players did this. You have the second rival battle (can only be done before you get the Boulder Badge) WITHOUT registering a second Pokemon in your Pokedex. Once you have done that, go talk to Oak, and he will give you five of them. Also, in the English versions ofnRed/Blue, Oak's text from this event is glitched. It was fixed in Yellow. FireRed/LeafGreen is similar on the condition, where you just have to beat the rival on Route 22 or in Cerulean City, have no second Pokemon in your caught data, and no Poke Balls in your bag. Edit: In FRLG, Professor Oak gives you a set of five Poke Balls immediately after giving you the Pokedex. What I mentioned above is where he gives you a second set of five Poke Balls, which most people likely don't know about!

[@saxor96]

No, in FR/LG a lab assistant of Oak gives you five pokeballs right after getting the pokedex. The info on gen 1 is accurate tho.

[@Big_Boss_985]

Oh dang, I said the same thing before seeing this comment. The more specific pokemon knowledge the better I guess.

[@Mrperson0]

@@saxor96 It's actually Professor Oak who gives you the first set, but he gives you another five Poke Balls after you waste those five. Probably as a callback to how you were able to obtain them in Gen 1.

Wait, how did he get Celebi? As far as I'm aware that event was exclusive to the japanese version and the 3DS rerelease but he was playing on an original english GBC copy

Just finished the vods. This is amazing.

Wait how did he get the gs ball on an english cart?

[@ChronCP-s1e]

In crystal after beating the league you can get the gs ball after leaving a poke center but I forget in which town

[@cuck1ngfunt]

@@ChronCP-s1e That’s only on virtual console. Johnstone used emulation cheats I assume.

[@bythos3258]

No you can't, not in the cart version. You only get the gs ball in the 3ds eshop version. Since this was all about how he bought a physical copy of crystal and played it, there's shenanigans involved

the way you kept reassuring us that this was a "hard challenge" was brilliant xD
