Your shedinjas name is Ohko? *3/3 Elk Flashbacks intensify*

Shedinja: it's named OHKO Also shedinja: OHKO's almost every enemy

[@Igorcastrochucre]

43:09 I'm trying to figure out what scenario would make a Beldum run impossible. The only way I can picture is saving among the E4, but it can't be because of PP because it only learns Take Down and PP shouldn't ever be a problem if it needs struggle, and Jrose wouldn't be so careless to waste his Elixirs or Leppa Berries. And then I remembered: There is a singular Liechi Berry that only appears in Mirage Island, and if you losing it is a big deal if you need it for more than 1 battle and used it without planting.

[@kylewagoner]

Shedinja is one of my top 5 favorites of all time. He's so cool.

[@Sparkette]

I know exactly how you feel about Natural Gift. There's always something extra satisfying about finding a solution when it involves something I never expected to have a use for.

[@dantemalick2872]

FYI jrose, pretty sure Lucian's pun is with 'lucid'

[@adis3202]

Or illusion. Maybe.

[@chinmaymathur7000]

Luci-an as Lucky?

[@mysticmallachi777]

I think Lucian is a play on the word "lucid," or the ability to be easily understood/comprehend (psychic clairvoyance).

You cure my imsomnia, I've been listen to your videos to help me sleep since the Feebas run. Not saying they are boring! Thanks for the content

Yo, I do the same with his videos! There’s something comforting about jrose that lets you sleep easy. I finish each video later while awake tho

[@repents1nners773]

Ah yes, 7 rings in hand, never thought jrose would reference secret rings

[@Brayth]

Lucian is pronounced “loo-shin” so I think it’s a play on the word “illusion”

[@Kuzon9]

Ah, this is probably right. I was thinking Lucid, meaning like...heightened perception. Maybe both!

[@LuxSingsSongs]

There are two ways to say it, actually! The other way is "loo-see-in", so while you're probably correct, given your reasoning, I wanted to step in and mention that it does have two ways to be pronounced (especially since it is my name, haha).

[@WobblesandBean]

That makes way more sense than "lucid".

[@jamirimaj6880]

Weakness Policy is that very expensive toy Shedinja could never have or experience, no matter how he wants it so badly lol

[@shinedaimon]

This is probably one of the videos i laughed to most watching it. Seriously everytime u got to fight a Drifloon/Drifblim or when thing went strange i laughed way to hard, and this was a really really fun run, like, when do u get to use Natural Gift and Sunny Day like that? Pretty darn good video, congrats for the 200K subscribers, u deserve it!

[@ovbrook3057]

You say no one would ever use Sunny Day Shedinja, but in actuality, someone got second at VGC worlds during gen 4 with a sunny day Shedinja, even getting a 3v1 comeback with it during worlds finals

[@WobblesandBean]

I adore when high level players use creative, PU or NU pokes in devastating ways, it's always so much more entertaining to watch!

[@neonmole9453]

Brilliant run! Seeing a gen 4 video though, while bursting with nostalgia, reminded me how much the green lines in the floor after defeating Cynthia moving at different speeds between rooms genuinely annoyed me. Of all the things for my mind to focus on...

27:25 you literally activated a part of my brain I forgot about. “7 rings in hand”

The first gym is Roark. I’m guessing a lot, and I mean a *lot* of grinding

[@ladyriethegoldendelmo5441]

Roark is such a geo-dude! I guess the match was more of a rock-throw at him lol! then again I kinda detect this kind of thing will happen lol

Most remarkable thing? He did it in 25 in-game hours. It took me double that to beat let’s go pikachu without any challenge element.

Lovin the content! Congrats on 200k!

[@raina1848]

That was really interesting. All those priority moves, switching, weather, and Drifbloom/blims, and it felt like the whole game was made against Shedinja solo runs. XD But the worst part was Bertha. I almost thought that was it. The elderly ladies of the elite four keep giving you lotteries!

[@FallenAngel2k02]

27:26 Seven Rings In Hand. I caught that reference.

[@thetactician2787]

I was playing a fangame called Pokemon Reborn and I couldnt get past the Ground type gym. Found out that if I used a specific item during this fight it makes your pokemon typless. So I decided I would use a Shedinja to rush the gym. It was fun cause rough skin garchomp so I needed a special move. Sandstorm so I also needed a weather move. the only thing that killed that run was that Shedinja ran out of PP before I could defeat all the mons
