Could Larry Become Champion In Pokemon Violet?

You know him, you love him! But can this totally normal guy become EXTAordinary and snag the title of Champion, promote Geeta to customer, and finally get some well deserved vacation? It's time to find out!
The game I mentioned in the video is called Atelier Ryza. Great series, might make a video on it soon ;)

[@niamhfarrell9152]

Is sada next?

[@tricmagic]

Aw Ryza. Where you can apply infinite damage. Ryza 3 is pretty laid back. (blatent lies) Speaking of Atelier. Keep an eye out for sales. They sometimes drop the price of their games to 60 for 3 in a series. Which means Arland, Dusk, and Mysterious Trilogies. (No clue if Dusk came before or after Mysterious given Logy. I'm still playing those last though.)

[@Sean_of_Ripetides]

Ah yes, everyone’s favorite gym leader

[@TheUninvitedIdiot]

OK SO I HAVE A THEORY.... (Don't look at my theory till you watched the seires) Tanadamaus 1: Looks for Sada and then then next play through is with Sada. Tandaamaus 2: This Tandamaus after being sent to the distant past changes into ogerpon. After a while of Vasko/Ogerpon waiting around as legendary Pokémon don't seem to age eventually Kieran shows up. Because the main character does not exist in this timeline Kieran catches ogerpon and so the next one is can Kieran actually become champion.

[@goofygoober-io4qm]

I hope he does arven or kieran

[@Shinygiritina53]

@@Poppliolover1 I was about to talk about that comic too.

[@kerilithia]

So Larry was initially a creative writer or artist who upon being isikied into another world decided to reinvent himself with the life he couldn't get on Earth...a salary man. He only complains about it because he saw on TV that its what all salarymen do and he wants to fit in.

[@JakoBpyroTech]

As yet another box-standard journey through paldea comes to its end, a new threat has emerged, and, as a final twist, we find Vasko even more lost in time than possibly ever before. What will become of Vasko now? Will the perpetual form change strike again? If so, how might it affect Vasko, now that his Tandemaus form has been split? Did the second use of the time machine actually go through as intended, or might something have gone awry? How has Terapagos managed to take control of Sada's AI Doppelganger? Most important of all, what will Vasko find that far back in the past? check back in for the next wild episode to find out!

[@JakoBpyroTech]

I'm somewhat curious: What do you think of these comments I've been leaving on this season of your "Can X become Champion" videos, Vasko? (I've been trying to channel the voice of a TV show narrator closing an episode with a cliffhanger ending)

[@VaskoGames]

I enjoy them :) It's a nice exciting recap

[@JakoBpyroTech]

​@@VaskoGames huh, I hadn't thought about them that way before. I can see that, though.

[@DoctorNovakaine]

Dunsparce running away is normal - some other Pokémon do that too, like Silicobra and Sandaconda (if they're on sand). Usually the only thing that will keep them from running is if they're shiny. I'm kind of ridiculously invested in this plot, I can't wait for the next episode! Thanks for doing what you do!

[@I_AM_TheRealHIDE]

Tested this out myself and loved the results. One of the funnest play throughs I’ve had in a while.

[@vekskunk2685]

I wonder who will be next all that's left is Penny, Sada, Turo, Poppy, Hassel, Rika, or the teachers.

[@t-the-bawnbawn2663]

REALLY intrigued for how the next part unfolds, nice twist here

[@justinn8541]

Best boy is here!

[@JakoBpyroTech]

Anyone else notice how neither Ryme nor Larry battled Turo? I wonder why that is? I love how seamlessly you've been blending the story into this season of your "Can X become Champion" videos, Vasko. It feels simultaneously like you're just making a video about yet another challenge run of these games, but also like you are there, in the story as the main character around which these events are unfolding.

[@VaskoGames]

Hehe thanks! Also good catch! The reason there was no battle with Turo is because of two things: 1) Both Ryme and Larry lost in the battle against him 2) Couldn't find a good reason to include the battle as part of the story. Maybe Ryme being a bit upset? But neither her nor Larry are that confrontational as characters

[@JakoBpyroTech]

@@VaskoGames Makes sense

I love that Sada voice. She crushed it

[@prof.thiagoalmeida1226]

It's funny how Larry was one of the gym leaders who had the best performance against the gyms, but did so absurdly badly against the Elite Four and Geeta...

[@TheWowza48]

6:36 Vasko-maus: "Can I get a like for the loading screen?" Me: "Y'know what... you convinced me." Clicks like button.

[@ZygardeTrueForm]

i wonder who will be along side with Vasko this time... we can't use any dlc characters for that, we cant use paradox pokemon because they are in the end game zone, it would be weird to use the elite 4, tean star and teachers.. which means there are 5 options or idk.. Nemona, Penny, Arven, Geeta and Clavel... or.. Vasko could be this time by himself with all of his 8 versions. i dont have any other ideas what will the last video of this season be.. sooo, yeah.

[@HP-qy6sr]

Maybe tyme? I mean she is gym leader at this time.

[@AllanGuiHaya70]

​@@HP-qy6sr she was a gym leader a MILLENNIUM ago!?!?!?!?

[@WarmLillie]

Living like Larry, Is living like misery…Larry is just normal. His facade is strong. He status is busy and tried and able to put that energy into battle as well. Sleep and paralysis non-stop. I guess you can say Team Star is too strong, being normal doesn’t give you a fighting spirit. Fighting is super-effective, against normal and even with the switch up to flying. It easy to change type but if you can’t change yourself… Victory won’t be any different, going at it again and again just will lead you to insanity. Nice Blue Staravia it is pretty amazing, want the shiny grey. -------------------- I have been playing Splatoon, making meme, and sword for dynamax adventures. ----------------- Lusallie: “Paldea isn’t Alola… There are some weird things, I got hit by Revaroom just to be in a void and later comeback from the ground.” “There are time I gotten mad but later gotten sane.” “Very sane… My own dimensional adventure in past taught me a lot.” “I want to challenge Eri, I don’t know why but I have some kinda fighting instincts.”

[@IsobelRacine-ez4np]

For some reason, when you and Larry were talking about the glitches, I got “get a snack at 4 AM snackcore” vibes. (It’s a Roblox game, and damn it’s a good one.)

[@triforceofcourage100]

Scarlet and Violet are definitely very flawed products but they’re still my favorite pokemon games dethroning ORAS. Every story in the game is fantastic. The story of Arven was very touching and the best one pokemon has ever had. Penny’s was also fantastic and had some of the best battle music since the days of Colosseum and XD. Heck even the gym challenge has Nemona whose Goku-like attitude makes for the most charming rival we’ve had in years.

A game I recently played that is a hidden gem is Persona 5 Strikers. It is a spin-off and a sequel of Persona 5. It combines the Dynasty Warriors gameplay with Persona RPG elements to create very good gameplay and the story is almost as good as Persona 5 especially in the later part of the story. If you like the original persona 5 or royal then you like strikers

[@kattheif]

just curious, where does it say that Larry does construction?

[@VaskoGames]

It was in the Indigo Disc DLC, Ryme talks with him about how great the gym turned out, and that he was assigned to basically remake it from whatever it was while her sister was gym leader. So he was involved in making that concert stage in Montenevera

[@remberedink]

I do have to wonder which Sada we've been talking to this whole time. Given the second one's Paradise talk I'd say the second one is the human, but at the same time the first Sada said the second was Her research assistant. Not sure what to think

[@BooTube5]

Vasko has multiplied

[@cyborg428105]

Since you’re doing Larry’s run, will you potentially do the other elite 4 members?

[@Tony_AM009]

I had been under the impression that the various you's had been interacting with the AI professor this whole time. This is quite the plot twist. Having an AI construct go rogue against the actual professor and our player character could've made the official game's story potentially interesting. I wonder if adding the Kantonian Tauros from his Blueberry Academy team into this Larry run would've helped or not.

[@glitchedgamerz]

Chien-Pao is my most liked of the four, great to see it in action finally. I wonder who's next for Champion Run...

I hope Dudunsparce will Evolve again. The new evolution will probably have very high stats because it is a second cross-gen evolution. And Dudunsparce can then use eviolite

[@13KuriMaster]

Will more non-gym leader characters be covered? All of Team Star could be done, and I am extra curious to see if Penny could pull it off (Eevee team has an advantage of not being mono-typed)... and maybe you could test how the team star folkes compare to each other while you're at it.

[@user-hd1zo9ng4e]

[@HamBurglar-yo9id]

5:48 caseoh 💀

[@zackmarkham4240]

I'm still mystified by people having glitches. I played on a switch lite and only had minor fps issues when looking across fields and the occasional scene-setting pokeball in the middle of small rooms. I didn't have load issues, fps issues outside of maybe a 5-10fps hit when looking over large fields, I had ONE texture issue which was the same as you but on a different pokemon, I didn't fall through the environment. I had quite a few pokemon spawn inside the cave walls in area 0, though. But really, I've played far glitchier games.

[@daniellebibby7810]

No super effective moves (uses super effective move)

[@xRaiofSunshine]

LARRY!!! He’s our guy!! :D

[@robertbarrows6687]

Honestly Vasko I think you restricted Larry too much for the Elite Four. The fact he can have TWO teams gives Larry an enormous amount of variety and potential lineups that could have made the Elite Four a breeze. If he wanted to I think he would have mixed both teams to give him the best shot, keeping Staraptor his Ace, but also keeping Flamigo as a backup Ace. Then Komala and Altaria. Then Dudunsparce and Tropius. That gives him a REALLY strong team able to deal with Paldea's Elite Four and Geeta.

[@testerwulf3357]

But Larry's personality prevents him from doing that..what's more abnormal that using a flying team? Mixing teams! It just wouldn't be a Larry run if he did that..plus I don't think it'd work. None of his mons have optimal stats and moves, they just wouldn't make it, duotyped is still just not enough! He doesn't have anything super effective for the fights he's struggling on so no matter what he does he can't beat them, he cannot become champion. Being able to mix 2 teams doesn't guarantee it'll be a strong team, not how that works, neither team could deal with the tough spots of the elite 4 and Geeta so mixing them won't have any better results as they both are failing for the same reasons.

[@DuckLord12]

Just a question, if you became a tandemaus where is your conscience? What happens if you evolve?
