Can TEAM ROCKET GIOVANNI beat Pokémon Shield?

Can we beat Pokemon Sword and Shield challenge where I play as Gen 1's most notorious Kanto criminal Team Rocket and Rainbow Rocket Boss, Giovanni? His team include Persian, and his ground type gym team! With extra set rules such as no dynamaxing and no items in battle, is it possible to become the best trainer in the Galar region?

How do you only have 57 subs you should have 1 million

Its actually at 595 @Goku & @K Mlileomor 😘😍😍

[@Miki_YouTube_]

Sad , 57 to 616 in 11 days ur growing quick!

[@JJSSBU]

Little trick: By having a Nintendo account linked to a user that has beaten the game, you can use Pokémon HOME to transfer breeded Lv. 5 Pokémon to replace your starter ;) I sent an Eevee for the Normal type run

[@Rypereon]

Oooh I didn't know that! Thankyou so much :)

[@Subject-by2kq]

@Commander_Playz maybe they didn’t have let’s go

[@brandonwalton9841]

Is there any actual validity to this because I can’t find it anywhere

[@thosebrownboxes6736]

The only problem is that those pokemon will level up faster because they’re considered “traded” pokemon. Or at least, that’s what always happens to me when I do it

[@lynxace1602]

[@Eggsnbaconbits.]

Good video! The "Money Money" part a 6:31 scared the crap out of me because it was so much louder lol. Keep up the great work, you're well on your way to 1000 subs.

[@Rypereon]

Sorry I didn’t mean to scare 😹

[@levimorton483]

Giovanni is out on a scouting mission in Galar. When he gives the signal, Team Rocket will invade and destroy all who oppose.

[@DarkLordTalon]

Wait why do we not talk about Rainbow Rocket? That was absolutely incredible and 100% something the man would do to spread his evil.

[@Rypereon]

It’s simply because I wanted the original team :)

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

Maybe because that giovani was from a different universe then the one he was rp'ing?

[@toe797]

This was fun to watch, but I honestly think you should have dropped Bugs from the team the moment you got a mon that fit with Giovanni's team

[@Rypereon]

I have changed that in the new challenges don't worry. As mentioned, this would of been pretty much impossible without

[@itswizardtime63]

"Haha, it is I, Grunty Boi!"

[@williamskelton325]

This was fun, I honestly thought either Melony or Nessa would end this run. I would like to see you try a Jessie or James run. Maybe Jessie specifically that might be a little less challenging largely thanks to Mimikyu and Wobuffet.

[@Rypereon]

I was close to giving up but wanted to power through! I’ll have a look I’ve got challenges scheduled as I’m on holidays now 🥰

he fled to Galar after he had been wanted for war crimes in kanto and alola

First video I've seen of yours. I have a question, for your drawn avatar with the peace/victory symbol, is there a reason the hand is wrong? Or is it an inside joke?

[@mairain6443]

why didn't you get kangaskhan, Rhyhorn or onix after you tried the nido's before first gym, you could always swap them out later but have more pokemon to work with. onix at least has a good defence plus has curse, smack down and dragon breath before lvl 20 to at least get para/ some damage buffs as early game stats aren't as important. Plus Kangaskhan is on the island of armour which scales down before you beat the game, which gives you a fake out and stomp and bite by 16 and headbutt by 24. Also Rhyhorn is on the island of armour dlc potbottom desert.

[@wynnhd4318]

great video, had me forget about the leon fight too 😂

[@brandoncarlson2862]

First video I've seen of you, and I couldn't help being thrown off by something about the profile pic popping in. Took me a sec to realize what it was...but while the profile is holding his left arm up, it's got a right-handed peace sign lol

[@chriswoods7774]

I still like him Giovanni, he is equivalent of Bowser from Mario and Eggman from Sonic as an evil antagonist for Pokemon, he likes to take a break from battling for pokemon from time to time, but he always looking for a fight with his pokemon once again, probably going to get defeated every time you know.

Since when we’re ground types weak to bug and flying I know ground type moves can’t hit flying types without something like smack down hitting first but I never knew they were weak to flying

[@eazybuxafew]

Just starting the vid and I’m already soooo curious. How are you determining Giovanni’s cannon team?!! What makes one more cannon than the other??

That honeydew clip brought back some memories

[@7swordquanta459]

1. Thank goodness you finally removed Raboot. I was about to ask why you never removed it when you already had some of Giovanni's Pokemon. 2. I deeply respect that you were faithful to Giovanni's original team. You could have also used some of his Pokemon from Black and White 2 to make the run a bit easier, especially Krookodile. If you got one with Moxie, you would have swept most of the trainers a lot easier. 3. Why not use some moves to reduce enemy damage (e.g., Light Screen, Reflect) or those that increase your Pokemon's stats (e.g., Bulk Up)? While I know this isn't a Nuzlocke challenge, it would have still helped you in a major way. It will also act as an additional layer of defense aside from your Toxic Spikes strat. 4. You could have also used Stealth Rock in Kabu's gym and in the Leon final fight.

[@Rypereon]

Hey! Thankyou so so much for the support! I agree with your points 😊 I believe it would of been better using the kanto team, and I honestly wanted to make use of my moves in case I dropped, though the speed buff at times would of been helpful. I could of used Stealth Rock with Aegislash to make use of king shield too! Kabu wasn’t needed though this would of helped also 🥰

Surprised you never added Mewtwo to his team lol

[@LoxaDAxol]

Okay but like... what's stopping Giovanni from following the 6 pokemon per team rule? Actually, what's stopping ANYONE? Also, as someone who just got all 8 badges last night in shield, I feel extremely bad for hop. Man literally wants to follow in his big brothers footsteps, but everyone he goes against just folds him cause they have more experience. even the MC, who started the same time as him, is already at an advantage all the time.

[@ominousshadows1417]

Thats actually a good question, nothing is stopping

[@catalyst539]

Giovanni literally has 6 pokemon

[@LoxaDAxol]

@@catalyst539 no, like what's stopping anyone from having like, 7 pokemon or like 20?

[@adonysus]

According to the Manga, it was discovered/decided that 6 is the optimal number to have in order to establish strong enough bonds with your Pokemon and considering there are only like... two Pokemon teams who hate their pokemon, it makes sense that he would stick with 6

Ground isn’t weak to bug or flying tho

[@Rypereon]

Hey! Ground aren't weak correct. However, it's ground moves that have no effect on flying (makes them useless) and then Bug type pokemon are likely to have grass moves as well which puts ground at the disadvantage. Ground moves aren't very effective either. That's what I mean, I just haven't said it well xD
