HOW EASILY CAN YOU CATCH EVERY POKEMON IN BRILLIANT DIAMOND/SHINING PEARL?

With the original Diamond and Pearl Catch 'em All being my most popular video ever on this channel, I figured you all would want to see what this challenge would be like in the brand new remakes! Today we're going to find out how easily you can catch every Pokemon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

True. WHY?!?

[@MarshtompGames]

A little reward for those who decided to rip the bandage off and played Let's Go.

[@iedskiller]

@@MarshtompGames i hate lets go because you just cant evolve the pokemon like just because you got famous because of an unevolved rat doesnt mean everyone wants an unevolved rat

"The games just came out, so I'm sure I'll take more time to find glitches". Meanwhile, less than 24 hours later, people realized you can still go out of bounds.

[@kurze1555]

I would love to see you do the professor oak challenge for these remakes. Idk if I want to just see you suffer when you unlock the grand underground or if Im curious on how long it will actually take.

[@CMOJokerSR]

I was actually thinking about going through this myself, and the pokemon in the ground underground ( at least the beginning) are considerably leveled up compared to everything else so it makes leveling easier in the beginning

[@GreyCartridge]

Would grand underground even count? I thought the rules specified filling the Pokédex, and a lot of them aren’t in the normal sinnoh dex.

[@CMOJokerSR]

@@GreyCartridge the amount/different types available grows as you get farther in the game. What's available isn't in the national dex until after you get the national dex.

[@Joker55000]

Same lol

[@GameboyLuke]

HE’S BACK!!!

[@choukrihersi6335]

Yeah

[@xd_teodorh1356]

Hahaha

[@bn-cw8ln]

the reason pokemon seem harder to catch underground is because they changed it to where if you're a lower level than the wild pokemon it drastically lowers the catch rate

[@cdoggo3352]

No, is doesn't *seem* like it, the catch rate is just lowered before you become champion. The same thing goes for the Wild Area in Galar.

[@Evarakeus]

@@cdoggo3352 No, he's right lol, you can easily test this with high catch-rate pokemon in the GU. I had a red-health, sleeping ralts pop out of a ball after 0 or 1 shakes several times in a row, then leveled up a bit to match it and caught one no problem. Ralts' catch rate is 235, btw

[@alucard8433]

Not only can you get a Mew at the start, you can also get a Jirachi and Manaphy at the start. Before the 2nd gym you can have 3 mythicals on your team.

[@0Mitzuio]

I wish more gym leader would use pokemon of different types like Volkner. Countering their weaknesses with counters adds a little bit of difficulty. Although they shouldn't be completely outlandish and follow a theme. Like colors, lore, benefit from weather if they use it (like using grass pokemon in fire type gym's) or the ability to learn moves of the gym leaders type.

[@chefgrizz6284]

Isn’t there a leader that does that in SwSh? A sandstorm based team?

[@yoiptree]

Volkner is bc in dp the dex sucked so he needed to use those and this game is trying to be as nostalgic as possible

[@MultiWilliam25]

@@yoiptree exactly 💯 %. Remember how the fire type elite 4 member only had 2 fire types? Infernape and rapidash. His others were lopunny, drifblim, and steelix. The diamond and pearl pokedex sucked in type coverage.

[@victory8928]

Problem, only volk’s octillary is the only counter to ground types. Ampi and oct are just there cause P&D Dexter sucked

[@victory8928]

Or have abilities that fix well

[@dburris718]

Man it’s been so long. Glad to see you back and look forward to enjoying this video! :)

[@BurstFlare]

Actually, the strength and variety of Pokemon in the hideaways are determined by your game progress, specifically your badge count, when you become the champion, and when you get the National Dex. Edit: Okay, so I checked the wiki to fact check a reply I got recently, and it turns out I was partially wrong. The badge count and beating the Elite Four only affect the strength of Hideaway Pokemon. The variety is actually affected by five specific milestones, being obtaining Defog, Strength, the Icicle Badge, Waterfall, and the National Dex.

[@mrbagel6715]

also when you get surf and defog

[@BurstFlare]

@@mrbagel6715 Did some fact checking and found out I was partially wrong. However, Surf is not one of the things that affects it, you're probably thinking of Waterfall. I've edited the original comment with the correction.

[@shad0wphoenix1]

For those who don’t know, Johnstone is working on a video that’s currently larger than my whole hard drive. Literally like a terabyte long video

[@Crupp250k]

Great video man. Love the content 👌 I love how this one was so much easier than the originals and it boils down to exp share/mew/amulet coin. Good strats man

[@chriskrake9399]

FYI, the game lets you get one guaranteed turn when encountering roaming Mespirit. You can use a slower pokemon with mean look and it will still hit before Mespirit flees. No need to use master ball!

[@eksmad]
