[@kaptainKrill]

As I’ve watched this series progress, one thing I want to call out is the shift towards showing defeats, or showing multiple battles, like with Blaine here. When revisiting some of the first videos, it jumps out that we don’t get to see this stuff, and it makes the videos less exciting. It seems like your style is really evolving (pun not intended) as you put these together. Old Jrose is a lot more matter-of-fact, data-driven and “objective”. Now, we get silly recurring jokes and get to hear your excitement and disappointment at success and failure. I don’t know if you’ve noticed the change, but I want to encourage you to stick with it! As much as the old videos are great, the path to 200k is probably easier as you start to come out of your shell and “be yourself “ in these videos. And for the viewers, it’s actually a lot of fun to see it happening, too.

[@YukeWeiss]

I think there's a bit of a balancing act in that though. Not to be that guy, I think that showing some of the defeats are great, but the videos were really creeping up in length. Showing more of the defeats is great, but I think spending 30 minutes on 5 battles sometimes can get a bit repetitive, especially with over 40 runs left to go. I 100% agree that your videos have evolved even since you started this series and it's been awesome to watch, but I'd definitely look at trying to balance the Elite 4 a bit more.

[@Chaosdude341]

Excellent write-up.

[@craigyeah1052]

I've been thinking this same thing. Surely not everyone likes the same things, but I enjoy seeing the struggles of the pokemon more than only being told and given times.

[@cubedmelons876]

Yeah, maybe a good idea would be showing all the defeats, but not starting over from the beginning for every run. Like, show all the Agatha deaths, but then cut out all the Lorelei and Bruno fights.

[@loulou3676]

Love the recurring jokes. Everybody always talks about "Rival Fival" but "the Agatha Lottery" is almost just as good.

[@bell-awesome2759]

So this might sound like a bizarre challenge, but I've been thinking about it for the past few days: A run where you are your rival, essentially -- only using the Pokemon and movesets that your rival uses through the game, leveled up to the various points where you encounter him, to see if he's really Champion material. Obviously there are some problems inherent to pulling that off, namely HMs and the fact that his Exeggutor knows fewer moves than his Exeggcute, so it might require more extensive Gameshark usage. Plus the Kadabra evolving into Alakazam, that'd require either another game or a cheat to make it evolve without trading. But I think it would be an interesting challenge regardless.

[@ShadowSora8491]

If it wasn't for Mew's move pool having a slow start at the beginning of the game, I think Mew would've actually been better than Mewtwo, but it seems like the rest of the run was practically smooth sailing, after that initial victory against Brock. I'm glad that you were able to show us these kinds of runs with legendary/mythical Pokémon (Mew is technically a mythical Pokémon, not legendary). It also goes to show that while these Pokémon are a little stronger than most Pokémon, they're not invincible, and even they can struggle against certain other Pokémon, too.

The Mew run just goes to show how important a vast movepool is, as well as good stats. On the “have to go slower because of no Dig” issue, you could have gotten an Abra from the Game Corner. They’re cheap so you wouldn’t have to grind money ( in fact you could gather the coins you needed off the floor, but that would probably be too slow).

Seel could be an interesting run, it starts with only headbutt and doesn't learn any move via levelup until growl at lv30 and aurora beam at lv35. Brock is going to be pure pain cause you can't even counter onix's bide. It does learn ice beam at lv50 and has access to some good tm moves, so the mid-endgame is going to be easier.

[@WodkaEclair]

Thing is, by the time you learn Ice Beam naturally you'd probably already learn the TM

[@red-eyessolares1817]

It’s cool to see a Mew run. I think it would have been interesting to have the rival with Blastoise since it’s the most bulky, and would’ve definitely changed the strategy for Mew. Maybe it would’ve been a more special Mew than physical, but it’s cool to see a more physical set. I can’t wait to see more of the lesser used Pokémon like shellder and cubone.

[@cubedmelons876]

Maybe, though we all know what Blastoise loves to do in these rums.

[@ArtisChronicles]

Venusaur is actually bulkier, but no matter what type the rivals starter is, mew can learn coverage for all of them. Against venusaur mew can use its stab move though, so that makes it slightly better to be matched against (in mew's favor). It wouldn't have made a difference which starter he was paired up against and he even explains why he wanted charizard.

[@red-eyessolares1817]

ArtisChronicles I get that Mew would have coverage for all the starters, but he would have to make Mew more special based than physical, but I like that he used a physical set. Also, adding the base defensive stats of hp, defense, and special, Blastoise has 264 while Venasaur has 263 then adding weaknesses, Blastoise has less so its Bulk is more reliable since you have more switching opportunities. So that’s why Blastoise is the bulkiest starter of the three, and that obviously translates later do to its higher sp def in other Gens.

[@bongchoof]

Why were you surprised by how good Mew was? It's one of the best Pokemon of all time. Great stats. Very bulky. Powerful mixed attacker. The most versatile Pokemon of all time. It can serve literally any function on any team and be one of the at doing said function. Want a sweeper? It can have set-up moves, have a move that attacks on the special or physical side to surprise your opponent, run recovery and be very bulky as well. The only small negative Mew has is that it 'only' has 100 base speed which means it ties a lot of threats. So it usually want speed investment. If it had even just 105 base speed it would be a lot better. But then if wouldn't have the 600 BST of Mythical Pokemon. Still, Mew is nearly a perfect Pokemon.

[@braidonsaelens5174]

If Koga had a drink brand, it would be called "Koga-Cola".

I find myself checking Jrose11 daily

[@isaiahjones1587]

Same

[@LeeHarveyOswald1000]

These videos are addicting, I love your Pokémon challenges

[@piercer_of_heaven]

Where’s the new video? It’s been like 3 weeks and I still want to see the best starter Pokémon for gen 2 please

[@roccopiosaracino3681]

He's probably doing a difficult one like weedle or magnemite, or maybe he's on vacation

[@beejaytea5964]

i love this series and the development of the tier list, keep up with the great content!

[@Genra]

22:18 You sneaky Sneasel, you put an ad here so that your pronunciation of Lorelei would be broken and we would forget 🤣 Also Lorelei is not the ice type _gym leader_ :P

[@daveheineable]

Lol I have youtube preneum

[@reallyriley123]

YESS THE ONE I WAS WAITING FOR!, honestly thank you for these jrose i see a lot of people doing pokemon runs and you are the only one i can watch all the way through without being bored. definitely the best and most entertaining player, want to see more emerald/ruby!

[@reallyriley123]

shouuld have just mixed a move up with rock slide after lorelei like had a water attack for bruno then switched to some other tm im sure there was a few to keep time about the same and even save some by doing it!

[@Demo54321]

This August I wish to see Jerose doing challenges on 2nd or 3rd Gen. Ty.

[@citroenboter]

Makes me wonder, is it possible to beat any game that can make you forget HMs with just a Mew, and ONLY a Mew.

[@kappasfdsdafasf]

Jrose if you are stuck on Weedle we understand, hopefully you are ok :/

[@1kwik]

first of all great video, as always! I always look forward to your videos I'm not sure why you haven't uploaded anything in August but its a bit sad that you mention at the end of this video about focussing on impossible and difficult challenges in august and then upload nothing for the whole month.

[@stagelights_]

as someone who wants to speedrun this game and knows the route pretty well, i was wondering why you didnt go for horn drill + x acc but i forgot that this challenge has no items in battle

[@TheUKNutter]

You should speedrun it

[@stagelights_]

@@TheUKNutter i really want to but cant actually do any runs for about a week or so because my computer needs to get fixed.

[@RenaissanceManchild856]

Jrose - in August we’re going to focus on some of the most difficult, tedious and impossible challenges. Probably speaking for most of your audience when I say that I am very excited!! I love your content. RE: Johto vs the remakes I’d love to see you take on Gen II! If not for a full series then got a few videos. I think Gen I’s jankiness makes these videos so consistently entertaining, and I think Johto has interesting challenges of its own with its terrible spread of tm moves, janky level curve and wash of low base power moves. It’s my favourite Gen because I find myself making do with strategies, Pokémon and moves that I would never use in any other game of the series and I would love to see how that comes up in runs like this! I think they’d all be really varied and exciting. Love your work and excited for the next round of content!

[@mooseygoosey9720]

I think it's weedle time.

[@shanedawndusk3290]

I love how the music in the background is Pokemon Conquest music. Most underrated Pokemon game ever.

[@thefirstsin2988]

If the next Video isnt a 2 hour weedlerun i will tell my mom on you

[@ZorotheGallade]

I'm actually getting worried for Jrose's sanity if he's attempting that. There has been no news for 3 weeks straight, and I'm afraid he could be slowly going mad, trying to beat the likes of Blaine and Giovanni with just Poison Sting and String Shot to his name.

[@thefirstsin2988]

@@ZorotheGallade im sure he's alright. Probably just annoyed and want to finish the video because he sorta kinda promised it. Or at least heavily teased it.

[@Thunk00]

Love seeing Bruno eek out a victory even if it was by forfeit.

[@frappompi]

Haven't watched yet but my guess is slightly slower than Mewtwo

[@spacepope8495]

I feel so happy watching Mew go on a tear like this
