@@nextdoorneighbour ohhhh that sort of counter

[@fabgassie]

(Warning, lots of numbers below) Regarding the low SpAtk of Pikachu being because of it being a bad pikachu... Yes. The Sp.Atk values that a regular nature Pikachu can have at lvl 100 are between 105 (with 0 EV's and an 0 IV in Sp.Atk) and 199 (with maxed EV's and an 31 IV in Sp.Atk). The Sp.Atk being 112 means that, at the very best (and most likely) the IV was 7 out of 31. Having to grind in the early game probably meant you barely had any EV's, with all the rats, bugs and birds not giving Sp.Atk EV's (mostly Speed and HP, of which the former was nearly at the maximum possible value, it being 261 out of a range of 185-279, meaning it had at worst an IV of 13, most likely higher if the speed EV's weren't maxed). Yeah, this Pikachu made it even more horrible than it needed to be. Interesting how Pokémon that need more grinding to beat for example Onix usually have very low Sp.Atk and very high speed. Of the available Pokémon to grind against, Rattata, Pidgey, Weedle, Spearow and Pikachu (2!) give Speed EV's, Caterpie gives HP EV's, Mankey gives Attack EV's and Kakuna and Metapod both give 2 Defense EV's. This means that you'll very often end up very weak on the special side. To completely show this (as I'm taking way too long writing up this comment anyways), let's compare ALL of Pikachu's stats to it's possible ranges (taken from the DPP Pokédex on Serebii): HP: 229, compared to a possible 180-274 Atk: 155, compared to a possible 115-209 Def: 109, compared to a possible 65-159 SAtk: 121, compared to a possible 105-199 SDef: 102, compared to a possible 85-179 Speed: 261, compared to a possible 203-306 We can see that the SpAtk and SpDef are very low, taking into account both IVs and EVs can increase stats, and HP, Atk, Def and Speed being average to high (since at most 2 stats can be maxed out, these are quite decent values). Definitely makes (at least in FRLG) special attackers that can't beat Brock hell. It'd be interesting to check if other generations have similar problems, but I doubt any have it as bad as in Kanto. The other regions all have either a bigger selection of grind-material, or don't have a huge roadblock before getting a bigger selection of grind-material. By the way, I wonder... What fossil will MDB pick next? Maybe we should all collectively drop our guesses in the comments. I'm going with the Claw Fossil.

I like that you don't reset for favorable IV's/EV's/natures. Makes the run more interesting.

[@douglaswills4624]

I actually disagree with this because it doesn't answer the actual question. Like, if the only reason the run wasn't winnable was because the pokemon had hot garbage for IV's that would be pretty lame. And there's also a very real possibility that the garbage IV's are the cause for Double Team being absolutely necessary. And then it's just a lottery simulator. All the same, I don't think there's any reason it's NECESSARY to do that. I just think it harms the ability to appropriately answer the question and makes less interesting strategies more likely to be necessary.

[@forgiveman]

Also, we don't know if doing appropriate EV training would help him in the long term.

[@ShinyTillDawn]

@@forgiveman Considering how you battle so many Pokémon before you get the Macho Brace, the EVs will likely be already maxed out. So in order to max out a stat, you'd spend hours getting 1 EV per battle, which is boring. He probably resets for IVs/Natures in the background.

@MDB, yeah there is no embarrassment in forgetting Venomoth's typing. It has wings, and you see those and your brain goes, "Oh, flying type!". They pulled this in later gens with that Octopus pokemon that you THINK is water type, only for it to be pure fighting, lol. Thanks for all the fun of these challenge videos!

Pokemon platinum with no new moves or without healing at Pokecenter

[@Sans_the_Skeleton4336]

@Christopher Lee brutal runs are nice ;D

[@TSfish94]

That strategy against Brock takes big brain plays to a new level

[@gracenargo5673]

Challenges that you should do Pokémon emerald with only ralts Pokémon gold with only slugma and Pokémon fire red with only oddish. Typed this So many times the entire thing come up in my bar above the keyboard on my iPhone

[@cookiesandcream1789]

Next gens gimic should be triple typing. Then maybe venamoth would be flying

[@akshaykarthik928]

Oh hell no, the type effectiveness chart would be insane

[@TC-pp7hx]

Charizard: dragon, fire, and flying type

I'd love to see a Sinnoh run with Kricketot

[@Leeroy_the_Potato]

I tried so hard to get Kricketot to work and after a year of trying I gave up, but I did do a kricketune challenge and it was so much fun

[@ShinyTillDawn]

That's already been done, and it's impossible. The player loses before the elite 4.

[@kristinamtuttle]

DAMN I super wasn't expecting it to be this hard... I think I was thinking "oh, red, speed = crit" without really thinking lmao

[@matthewbrown6573]

Ironic how you say you're "brick walled" while using brick break

[@chadmabe7069]

Lol i love how you kept calling ponyta vulpix cracked me up love these vids

A KZbin friendly algorithm for the comment.

[@kennethsouthard7942]

This hurts my soul

[@dahelmang]

The idea of Pikachu breaking bricks with those tiny little paws makes me laugh inside.

Pokémon challenge: gen 1, krabby only, no hm Pokémon. Krabby can learn all three required hms

[@williamfalls]

Then they wouldn't be able to fly.

[@Sans_the_Skeleton4336]

@@williamfalls you dont need fly to beat the game tho

[@williamfalls]

It'd make moving around more annoying, though, without fly.

[@tomkane5187]

@@williamfalls so you’re saying it would make the challenge more challenging?

[@wyattoleff5278]

@@tomkane5187 no it would make the tun more annoying. annoying and challenging are 2 different things kiddo.

On our way through, I took the helix fossil. I knew if I didn’t say what I took you’d all ask. Actually now that I think about it everyone ask anyway. Comments are good for the KZbin algorithm.

[@joel2628]

Just get a photo of the character grabbing the helix fossil with the text box saying so.

[@mastrorick]

Judging by the stats, it seems your Pikachu got perfect IV's in attack and speed, and zero in everything else

[@digitalneonblue97]

Gen 2 or 3 with Yanma 🤔 that would be a interesting challenge

[@et3rnalabyss459]

Hey MDB I just wanted to tell you how much I love the challenge videos. ever since I discovered them I watch every new one and you actually inspired to do my own. I recently beat firered with only a growlithe and man it was so much fun. Keep up the good work

[@aisadal2521]

Omg, yay, another Pikachu run! 😍
