[@Accidental.Creation]

Respectfully, you're completely insane.

[@senior12MdN]

I was about to say the same thing. Absolute psycho lol

[@retro_gamer_uk]

Fun fact… the starter was named Treecko because PaPaSea wrongly interpreted me saying Treecko as what to call the pokemon. It was in fact a lagged answer to who should he choose. Either way, I got my wish.

[@lukecwolf]

I did something similiar with a favorite pokemon. My friend loves mamoswine and wanted me to catch one. Problem was i was playing gen 2, and mamoswine didn't exist yet. So i caught a piloswine and nicknamed it mamoswine. Stupid but i love that mammoth

[@Vaelin94]

Roxanne won't know what hit her.

[@The-VortexCore]

bro isnt pregnant but he still delivered

[@Lamb666]

The person who delivers is the doctor.

[@patg148]

Doctor tree?

[@cTc10691]

Doctor Ski! 😂

[@henrymars6626]

Not pregnant anymore

[@leonsjacketre4]

I did this but I leveled my Blaziken to like... 30ish, 40ish, before having enough rare candies to go to 100. I wanted 100 before the first gym, to shock Roxanne. It is an intoxicating power. Like a god, or a force of nature, unstoppable. But now you inspired me to do it to some standard first route fodder.

[@fruityb0wl232]

THANK YOU FOR SHOUTING OUT ABSOLBLOGS AT THE END!!! he’s the COOLEST!!

[@jolitero]

level 100, the pinnacle of power for a pokémon

[@ludairewah5937]

Twitch chat was wrong about the math. I'm pretty sure it works out like this: You have a 10% chance for pick up to trigger and 10% that it'll be a rare candy. Since you need to hit both to get your rare candy, it's 0.1 * 0.1 = 0.01 or a 1% change to get a rare candy from a single Zigzagoon. The chance to miss this 1% six times in a row is 0.99^6 or 94.1%. Thus, the chance you get at least one rare candy is one minus this, so you have a 5.9% chance to get one or more rare candies. The average number of candies to expect from 100 battles is then likely a bit over that since some of that 5.9% of the time you'll be getting multiple. I'd guess in the 6-8 range. Calculating that exact number is possible, i believe, but it's trickier than I care to calculate for a random KZbin comment. :P

[@OokamiSan4]

thank you, i wanted to check the math myself but i just couldnt figure it out. Thank you.

[@DakotaBennett-w2x]

This is also wrong btw. He originally messed up when when he said 47% chance to roll a drop. It’s actually 60% so ur right. 1% chance to roll a rare candy per zigzagoon per encounter. Meaning there is a 6% chance every time. I don’t know if u understand how statistics works, but just because 6 items are being rolled at once doesn’t mean ur gonna gain any more than the average likely. Just as u can gain 2 rare candies with a single encounter you can also go double odds dry. This math is really really simple. 1% chance per zig per encounter. If u want a certain amount of rare candies just take that number for example u want 65 rare candies so take 65 and multiply it 16.66666 repeated. This means on average it’ll take 1083.333 repeated battles to gain 65 rare candies

[@DakotaBennett-w2x]

Forgot to say the 16.6666 repeated comes from taking 100/6 because it’ll take 16.6666 battles to gain 100% on odds. As that would be the average.

[@maximum.collecting]

Are the drops within the 10% category evenly-distributed? Because if they are, then it’s a 1.666…% chance per battle to get a Rare Candy since there are 6 items in the category, no?

[@ludairewah5937]

@@maximum.collecting I assumed those were 10% each not 10% for one of those items. Otherwise I don't think it added up to 100%.

[@ZingoBananaa]

Cant wait for the adef reaction where he fixes all the math 😭

[@PaPaSea]

if anything is wrong it’s Professors Tree’s fault not mine

[@tree3214]

I was hoping someone would mention the adef video lol

[@Hypertoniclemon]

Ayyee, look at the boy adef getting mentions!

[@samuelstannard730]

That Professor Tree makes the boring maths stuff entertaining.

[@zard5930]

You: Zigzagoon Me: :O It has to be because of their collecting ability! Rare candies?!

[@ashtonwestfall4777]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="951">15:51</a> the math is for at least one rare candy each encounter and doesn’t account for the small chance to get multiple rare candies from a single encounter

[@GDOsmium]

1-(0.99)^6=0.0585, so if that 4.7% is right then there's a 5.85-4.7 = 1.15% chance that more than 1 of them pick up a rare candy

[@henryalberts539]

My first time playing Pokemon was Emerald. My dumb little kid brain who’d played the TCG & watched the anime didn’t conceive at first that I had to fight my rival and so I ground my Mudkip to a Marshtomp thinking that was how I would progress. This is quite definitionally give or take 10x more insane

[@darthmewtwosmaster4064]

10 hours is amazing. I spent 30 in safari zone trying to get 4 scythers and 2 chansey on fire red

[@ThePhantomVulpes]

Man, the celebrity cameo. I can't believe you got Professor freaking Tree!?

[@Maricodone]

Love me a long PaPaSea video while eating dinner 🥢🙌🏻

[@LateroseMosswing]

I feel like I'm back in high school, failing per-calculus again. 10/10, would fail this class with Professor Tree again.

[@maironsantoro4143]

Now you can expand Prof. Oak's challange: get every pokemon at level 100 before each gym

[@PaPaSea]

I just might be insane enough to consider this

[@NavitheNavigator1]

​@@PaPaSea rip And we'll still be watching it

[@y8knsnsnzmzz]

Level one hundred. The pinnacle of power for a pokemon. Very few pokemon ever reach this level.

[@tonyredgrave3903]

I bet sea has the patience to watch paint dry at this point

[@Songal18]

I love how you are going all out WITH factual data for these challenges!

[@JakeofRage]

New papasea math professor lore unlocked.

[@Erifire]

Raising my goat Zigzagoon to the very top. Absolute cinema.

[@boonski]

Was Professor Tree smoking some trees?

[@AudioGAWD]

Yeah, he was off that Roselia pack

[@ardianhesa4340]

i like how the lighting is different at the end there lol

[@theageofkaos1564]

I discovered your channel through the "As Nintendo Intended" videos, and I love the variety of your content!

[@darkninjafirefox]

I think going back to viridian forest would break his brain

[@ashtonwestfall4777]

The terrible dubbing of medium fast was just as funny as i thought it would be

[@joelmavity1467]

Thought the Professor Tree was a Rusty reference at first mention

[@Sailor-Khione]

So did I. Maybe he's from the good and normal timeline

[@Christian-ql7uq]

i cant wait to watch luffy completely destroy everything in its path as it becomes the new champion of hoenn

[@ChelseaReee]

It's unhinged and it's what I'm here for.

[@Iron_Alabasterd]

Professor Tree. Straight to the point. I like it. 😂

[@stuffingtonjfluffypantsiii]

When you said Professor Tree I half expected the stoner Pokémon professor from Pokemon Rusty to make an appearance.

[@SapphireSounds40]

Level 100: the pinnacle of power for a Pokemon.

[@rampantpikachu]

I've actually done this like 5 times when I was a kid. I remember having a Bkaziken at 100 and Breloom at 70 before getting the first Badge.

[@tylerdenny5428]

Ruby and Sapphire are the gens I retired from Pokémon, but I came back because of Black and white!

[@MrShdutchy]

Cant wait for the lvl 100 zigzagoon video

[@MapleCookieMonsterx3]

Matt, you can call him absol, stares from the shadows…looming…

[@ThorsShadow]

Whenever I played a Pokemon game over the last decade, I was like: "What if I did that?" Thank you for wasting your time like this, so I don't have to.

[@brettlejeune7009]

This was sooo much better than I was originally thinking, and quicker too

[@DakotaBennett-w2x]

How is 6 zigzagoons with 10% each to pick up an item add to 47%? That would be 60% chance unless I missed something

[@sarahgomez1976]

Insanity + strategy = a true madlad 🤣

[@two-nichegaming]

Trained to level 100, farmed rare candies, same thing. Very entertaining!

[@AB-ed2be]

Quality looks great ngl. I’m here for it.

[@shuckletamergaming]

I'm buying you a drink next time I meet you. You seem to need it 😵‍💫

[@grombs5911]

banger video, slowly watching the mental spiral of a man and his love for pokemon

[@bigsweaterman8142]

Good to see another zigzagoon fan. Respect.

[@boyankovachev7982]

That voiceover dub made me absolutely lose it ❤❤❤❤❤

[@PaPaSea]

It was easier to do that than re-record the whole thing and draw on the whiteboard again

[@boyankovachev7982]

​@@PaPaSeaYea, no. I'm really glad about that. And I'm willing to bet that prof. Tree's time is pretty valuable, and it wouldn't have been very convenient for him to have to return in order to rerecord it. No, but seriously, I love your content, mate. Thanks for the amazing work you do to bring us that brilliant content. And, given that I was recently able to catch one live, I can attest that the live streams are also fire. One love ❤

[@bryanwharton6692]

Sorry about your phone…

[@henrymars6626]

It's so cool that PaPaSea is collaborating with professionals like Professor Tree. That math hunk...so dreamy....😊😊😊

[@medinaproductions8955]

Yo what’s up with the ending? You either have a twin or you’re good with editing

[@baoff666z]

i was mid comment about the everstone and heard you mention it, instantly stopped typing hahaha

[@UraharaSteph]

So glad you're going to try and defeat the game with Luffy! Was definitely hoping you'd give it a try :D

[@Dante_Infernape]

Absolute madness! Sensational!

[@arielmccarthy4892]

Who is the mysterious prof. Tree? I like zigzagoon over bidoof.

[@metal100k]

This is almost a speedrunnable pokemon category lol

[@tiffaneyshaw4357]

I respect the drive but i dont think i could do it

[@pinkducklett1051]

Matt would be proud

[@AudioGAWD]

About the experience curves, and it's the reason I liked to have Milotic, Armaldo, or Zangoose on my team lol

[@Maricodone]

Man I should really drop in during stream again... this must've been insane, and I missed everything 😭

[@luckpup2766]

I hate the gen 5 exp change. People LOVE gen 5, but that's one element that always irritates me a lot. At least, other additions added in gens after it make up for it. Audino doesn't negate this. Tbh, they should've had the vs seeker.

[@Sailor-Khione]

Yeah I don't miss that. What I do miss is the difficulty modes but, I hope it's implemented better and it's available at the start

[@daryllkentgalindo7646]

This could be a speed run thing

[@gmanz5]

I thought Professor Tree worked in the Pokemon Rusty region

[@Ramperdos]

It looks like my original comment never arrived so I'm here to boost the engagement numbers. I hope we get to see Professor Tree again in the future, he really knows his stuff. EDIT: Of course the original comment spawned after I already wrote this, so I guess I'm double dipping.

[@estrabetenovomultilaser1936]

Man, this video is funny lol

[@luckpup2766]

Amazing video

[@cedriclothritz7281]

I like that you can use percentages and calculate probabilities correctly, but at the same time need a calculator to work out 20 cubed. In my experience, that means you're doing a maths major🤔 Edit: Oh, I actually predicted 10 hours for the challenge😂

[@lunayoshi]

Professor Tree is my favorite professor in all the games.

[@MysticLynxus]

Bro is a genius! 🤣

[@Atomic_Aegis45]

Had you found a shiny Zigzagoon, would you have started training that one instead?

[@Magnasword2]

Look ma I made it onto the teeevee

[@miketesta2970]

Yeah the Rare Candy Method is to op in Gen3 :D

I’ll say this took you over 30 hours of play time to complete

[@Sailor-Khione]

Level 100, the pinnacle of power for pokemon. Some Pokemon will never reach this leve- sorry I just had to do it.

[@Lasagnadestroyer]

I did this once. It stopped being fun after zigzagoon was level 100. It took me a month. 😂

[@freya1548]

You and @Dagnel are game masochists. 😂

[@Ramperdos]

I guess you found a way to live in the Distortion World (or caught Dialga), because nobody without one of those has the time to do this challenge AND watch One Piece.

Cinema 🙌🏼

[@skyshunts]

This must have taken so long to do.

[@BiblicallyAsmodeus]

That's insane

[@nullpoint3346]

Save rare candies for the end of the grind, using them early means they provide less experience.

[@nullpoint3346]

16:60 Good, you didn't make that mistake.

[@jhd303]

M E D I U M F A S T

[@javadkhusro]

I wonder if using your starter would have been faster than having the extra Zigzagoon. All the starters have the medium slow EXP group, which takes less exp to level up than Zigzagoon's medium fast until level 68, so you would end up at a higher level from battling with the same amount of experience. My guess is you would only be about 2 levels higher, so it wouldn't be worth it.

[@PaPaSea]

that might have been faster but then I wouldn’t have a level 100 pickup pokemon to pickup rare candies in emerald

[@domdude64dd]

But one less pickup pokemon, not sure how that changes the odds

[@MrJamess1982]

Not my place to tell you how to spend your precious time but would have been quicker to breed a shiny Turtwig

[@hyerdote]

that was so fast!

[@powerplay9422]

Did you know that Nintendo acidentally admitted emulators are legal?

[@christopherballero866]

Just an idea but next time there's a bit of math in one of your videos u should do it like Scott Steiner, the wrestler

[@YourCeeCeeDuelist]

It's not ""Zigzagoons"" It's JUST ""Zigzagoon"" I'm js

[@thatponybro6940]

Zigzagoon do be best early route rodent, biased? maybe, did i ask? no

Damn it, don't do this to me, I am already doing a lvl 100 on destiny isles in KH1 challenge, don't give me another one...

What are you, some kind of masochist?

[@theforeverchild1191]

Cant believe i wasnt subbed i am now

[@tgyo99]

This is my problem with people saying Nuzlockes are difficult... The ruleset doesn't have level caps making Nuzlockes a joke if you just grind levels

[@PaPaSea]

Hardcore nuzlockes have a level cap but regular nuzlockes aren’t nearly as difficult
