Self Destruct and Explosion might actually be kinda viable in the elite 4 here; they're among the best ways to punch up to the level 100s, and the user avoids getting xp, letting you straddle the fine line between level 50 and 51 a bit closer!

For the future, toxic + 5 hit wrap is almost a guaranteed 1-shot in gen 1. Heck, i think if you add leech seed to that, it's a guaranteed 1 shot at 4 turns due to how the toxic/leech seed damage counter works AND you heal for the huge damage.

[@azurrayne4140]

I personally thought about this as well, but the problem was the level cap and the fact toxic is a 1 time use. If he decided to go catch a second exeggute for the elite 4 it might be viable, but im not convinced it would be the best strat.

[@CobaltCruiser]

Jrose brings up an interesting point, one that I find kind of repetitive about challenge runs. While gym leaders, the rival and the elite 4 are far and away the most challenging obstacles of these games, they're almost always the only ones that ever get coverage. And when that's 99% of all challenge runs on KZbin, it just gets kind of, i'unno, boring? At least for me. So a run like this is absolutely refreshing where more battles get their time to shine, as well as potentially more strategies get showcased

[@snoozbuster]

The fact that all the movesets of the trainers change gives this run a whole new perspective compared to similar runs I’ve seen in other gens. Very cool twist

I keep thinking Jrose has done the hardest pokemon challenges and he keeps finding a way to make the games more insanely difficult.

[@CajunCrustacean]

This is one challenge that may, for a change, be much easier in later generations. Between abilities, held items, and new moves, you have so many more tools to work with later on.

[@t1r1g0n]

I don’t think so. Enemy Pokémon will also have all those tools. Additionally the level up movesets are much better, sleep and freeze aren’t op anymore and you can’t abuse stupid „good“ AI anymore.

[@subtledemisefox]

​@@t1r1g0nI thought the same thing as the first comment, but you make a good point. I remember how brutal it was being just slightly under leveled in Scarlet during some of the gym battles. I'm sure there's some kind of cheese build in the newer games, but I'm not well versed on Pokemon meta

[@CajunCrustacean]

@t1r1g0n fair points to think of, but most enemy AI don't have held items, and in later generations their movesets are predetermined rather than the last 4 moves by level up. Abilities do occasionally throw an extra wrench in the works, but most don't really matter. Someone (I don't recall who offhand) did something similar in HGSS, and while it was by no means easy, I think they eventually managed it largely through abusing abilities and items. Stuff like the FEAR Rattata tactic.

[@t1r1g0n]

@@CajunCrustacean I mean FEAR is absolutely broken against non ghost type trainers, as the AI might be better in later gens but still doesn't switch. Unless their Pokemon have priority you more or less cannot lose. Making it a boring strategy. But I guess you're right. Some later gens might be easier with abusing FEAR.

I think it’s kinda silly to even think anything like this is “ripping off” someone else. It’s not like stealing someone’s art or music, which would playing someone else’s song or something and passing it off as your own which is IP theft and plagiarism. In this case and I think with a lot of streamers and content creators, the Intellectual Property is more so the personality and production effort of the person doing the run. It’s like neither of them created Pokémon and I wouldn’t be surprised if most of these challenges were found on forums and chat rooms of people just goofing around with different rules and such to make the game’s different and more challenging. It’s like the “Top 10 list” fad. Like you didn’t actually create anything new except for the time and effort you made to produce a video that’d be interesting and watchable to people.

[@SomeGuy712x]

(51:09) Confuse Ray is actually a Ghost move, but yeah, the game sees that as being "super effective" against Haunter, and therefore the "good AI" must pick it every time.

I can see the japanese light novel title now. "I spent years calling pokemon a baby game for babies until one day I found MYSELF under a truck and I woke up in a pokemon world full of OP trainers because rare candies were not at all rare here!"

[@Peelster1]

I did this same exact challenge just last month, except I played Yellow, and I allowed myself to go over Lv 50, but I allowed no wild battles. I used pokeyellow disassembly to build the rom myself. I also built a rom for Red and Blue. I caught 3 Pidgey and a Mankey. Changed the strategy after I picked up Bulbasaur. I also used Dugtrio and picked up Articuno for the E4. Hikers and Swimmers were great EXP. Pokemon Tower was great EXP for Dugtrio. and I went the Toxic + Leech Seed route (which is a glitch) after early game Sand Attack. Mankey with Leer was also helpful. It's very interesting how the game just uses the last 4 moves in the Pokemon's learnset. I'm planning on doing the same with gen 2 and because gen 2's disassembly has the ability to pick what moves the AI's pokemon have, you don't run into the different moveset issue as you do in gen 1. I was thinking with the Lv 50 cap that you were going to abuse Selfdestruct on Graveler. Would love to see more Lv 100 from you. Maybe even a Blue Kaizo run?

[@manolisnikolakakis7292]

I'm so glad I saw such a badass team of Pokemon taking on the Elite 4! It's the sort of Pokemon one would not typically have on their team so it's fun to finally see them in action!

[@briansilva3765]

Seeing a playthrough where you cycled through so many Pokémon was awesome, you don't see this amount used even in casual playthroughs.

[@RaynmanPlays]

A lot of things about gen I do make this challenge a bit easier, but there are some things, such as the skipping level up moves issue, that make it just absolutely brutal. It'd be interesting to see how this plays out in future gens. Honestly, the level cap might be the hardest part of this challenge in gen V and beyond. It'd only take a few battles and you'd have to replace your entire team. I can see the EXP share being absolutely vital in gen V, not just to reduce the amount of exp your main Pokemon get, but to create a kind of rotating team, with some being near the level cap and some being there to level up enough to be used. Past that... good luck.

[@SombreroPharoah]

Late gen Exp Share could also make some real difficulties if the Lvl50 rule was still in. Thinking that could be 3/6 Mons, just by delay between catch/use, being boxed at a time. So half your team would be forever changing. I'd actually be super interested to see how later gens do for this reason.

Me at the start:"Oh boy! I can't wait to see him get a team of 100's and steam roll everyone.:" JRose11:"If a Pokemon gets to level 50, I will stop using them." Me:"Dang."

Somewhere out there, Atsign made a version of Pokémon Blue for Smallant that made status decreases (ex. growl) permanent. Idk if he’d be willing to share that, but I’d love to see your strategy on it too

[@bigfudge2031]

If it's already been done by smallant, then it probably isn't worth doing a video on.

So is there a reason we didn't just have Graveler SelfDestruct every battle so it would never gain any more EXP and thus be usable for the entire run?

[@sorenn.2108]

Or why not catch a new one? He never stated, that he can only catch one of every pokemon

[@joeldixton5627]

@@sorenn.2108 I think it's implied, quite a fun sub task

This was honestly a creative take of a Nuzlocke challenge with Levels instead. Great video!

I've discovered your video's the past few days and have enjoyed a few, maybe Weedle being my favourite. My wife's just fallen asleep half way through a movie, I'm bored, then I see this pop up! Thanks for having me covered up until bed time!

These are good videos but please read a book or sleep or ask your wife to have sex or something
