Happy Easter season, everyone (if you celebrate it) and if not, well, it's the time to see rabbits and eggs in stores everywhere. So how about a challenge where I complete the Pokémon Trading Card Game for the Game Boy Color using ONLY Exeggcute and Wigglytuff?
Challenge begins at 8:21 if you choose to skip the beginning. But why would you, you know?
Original Paraspectre Intro/Background by Joshua C. Griffin
Spike voiced by Poetry On Ice
Music from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
A special thank you to Mah Dry Bread for reading the rules

[@TheLetterJ0]

Suddenly hearing MDB read the rules threw my brain through a loop for a few seconds.

[@Paraspectre]

I was recording my own audio and got the idea to have him do it, so I asked him. He’s just like yeah, sure.

[@ave_maria323]

Yeah agreed

[@imafirenmehlazer1]

@@Paraspectre very much perfect!

[@Iamanothing]

same haha

[@TheSandFoxx]

dude, me too. I started absolutely cackling when I realized what was happening.

[@Louskunokka]

That rules read sounded kinda... *Dry!*

[@HybridAngelZero]

*Abridged Goku voice in the distance* I GET IT

[@calvinanderson4245]

*Mah* god, don't be so rude. His reading was fine, and it'll be fine as long as he gets that *Bread.*

[@Paraspectre]

Mah dry cameo

[@Dublin.655]

I am cracking up at the MDB part. Glorious!

[@Paraspectre]

What a guy ☺️

[@jacksart7810]

I'm glad you had so much fun with the sponsorship, Paraspectre 😂

[@Paraspectre]

It was a good time! Chilly, but good

[@thutmose3757]

Having played a bunch of TCG2, I can confidently say that the AI is super good at "fetching" defeat from the jaws of victory there too.

[@Paraspectre]

Oh for sure. Your opponent using Kangaskhan is almost a sure thing

[@BryantVonMiller]

That rule segment had me laughing so hard. Mdb thank you for this un-expected collab!

[@Paraspectre]

I wanted it to not even be acknowledged in the video 😅 it just happens and it moves on

[@4fives992]

This theme was a terrific concept and that intro/outro was spectacular.

[@Paraspectre]

Why thank you! I feel like Spike is just done with me 😅

[@KefkaChaos777]

I love that in the 3d games, the broken egg of exeggcute isn't dead, he's just chilling and facing the other way

[@marsella527]

This is by far the most nostalgic video you've made. I remember getting a copy of the game Easter Sunday in 2000. outside of sleep and church, I played this game the entire day

[@Paraspectre]

I wonder if I did as well. I got the game pretty close to release day, but I’m not exactly sure when

[@gligarguy4010]

Now I can't unsee Wigglytuff as the Easter Bunny 😮

[@Paraspectre]

Those are legit Easter Bunny ears

[@HybridAngelZero]

A new Pokemon TCG challenge always makes my day better. Also, the Mario RPG music brought joy to my heart :D

[@Paraspectre]

Heck yeah. Still my favorite video game of all time

[@Gamerboy007]

Always excited for new uploads! Great to see a fun Easter special challenge!

[@Paraspectre]

It’s fun to stick to the holiday themes

[@nict4343]

Not sure if you know this and/or find it helpful, but you can get mail from Mason by just talking to the gym leaders and then declining to battle. This works for Mitch, Gene, Murray, Ken, and Rick's assistant. Then you can save before checking the mail to fish for the cards you want. Give poor Matthew a break :'( Anyway really appreciate these vids, thanks for the fun challenges!

[@Paraspectre]

Yes, I do utilize this to help get cards faster. I just never show it.

[@Daniel-wk1lu]

At 23:35 “How Sweet, I’m just so happy for her.” That’s exactly how I feel when she plays that on me. 😂

[@adamglover6948]

Paraspectre used "Surprise Cameo"

[@Paraspectre]

Apparently it was super effective 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@sixfingerman68]

Thanks again for all these vids. I make sure to click them immediately as soon as they pop up. Put so many hours into this game and fostered a lifelong love for cards and pokemon both. Even though we deck Ronald with shocking efficiency and consistency at the end, it always feels earned

[@freezycastform99]

Is that MDB I hear? Hello? What a crossover lol

[@Paraspectre]

It was an Easter egg to you all 😊

[@gamingwithfoss]

This voice acting is next level! Even the rules sounded like they were being read by someone else!

[@Paraspectre]

I’m getting better and better at it!

[@connoromalley4004]

"Do the Wave" is my 2nd favorite pokemon tcg atrack. It's only behind "Everyone Explode Now"

[@shadex08]

Wigglytuff was one of my sister's favorite TCG cards growing up. Good times.

[@Paraspectre]

I don’t remember ever really using it until this challenge. It’s cool that the card itself has its fans

[@Nick_Slavik]

Exeggcute, Wigglytuff are a given, I feel like Chansey has gotten a bit of a snub lol She is the Egg Pokemon lol

[@GrampaSheevie]

As a member of the eastern unorthodox church, palm trees with coconuts are an Easter classic.

[@LTDextel]

That intro was cute. Keep it up, Paraspectre and team!

[@AlmostCoolGuys]

This is it boys! I've been hoping for that's sweet sweet nostalgic classic card game play. HERE WE GO

[@jamesrodney951]

I would love to see a challenge using nothing but the “4 legendary cards” sounds easy? I really don’t think it will be. A great challenge!

[@poisonbarb75]

Oh wow a random MDB in the video that's a nice surprise!

[@Chaos0f7ife]

Dude, thanks to MDB I found your channel about two weeks ago and I've been binging your videos! You're awesome and your skits are hilarious! Thanks to both you and MDB for providing entertaining Pokemon gameplay. Never thought Pokemon TCG Challenges would be awesome, but you pulled it off with aplomb.

[@Paraspectre]

Why thank you! MDB is pretty much responsible for me getting views now ☺️

[@drascia]

Your video quality just keeps getting better, y'know. Keep being awesome!

[@Paraspectre]

Thank you!

[@Nick_Slavik]

This was a great vid! I look forward to more 🤗

[@bodkin8914]

Thanks a lot for this treat. Always enjoy your videos.

[@Paraspectre]

Happy egg hunting, yo

[@LOHRISTIC]

I laughed hard at the rules, love the crossover!

[@OtakuJuanma2]

You sold me on the video with the accidental cameo of Sphere Hunter 😂

[@Paraspectre]

Haha I love Sphere Hunter’s RE videos

[@OtakuJuanma2]

@@Paraspectre Same, found her through either her DMC or RE videos some years ago but stay for everything else. (Also got a little crush on her but that's secondary)

[@drascia]

Oh! I've been meaning to tell you: You often have trouble with energy cards at the beginning of your challenges. Once Dr. Mason gives you your starting deck, put all of your energy cards into it so you have none in your "inventory" so to speak. Then talk to the aide to the right of Mason and he'll give you 10 of each energy.

[@Paraspectre]

I do this once in a while. There are times where I don’t bother, since I’ll get enough after the first few easy trainers

[@drascia]

@@Paraspectre by "first few easy trainers" I assume you mean Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, Matthew, and Matthew?

[@Paraspectre]

Took the words right out of my mouth 😎

[@CelticGuardian7]

That might be the best Easter thing I've had happen to me in years. Great video!

[@Paraspectre]

Thanks! Funny thing is I never do anything for Easter

[@marlysalt]

I missed your shorts! Glad to see you're doing well. Oh, and go get Spike out of the snow.

[@Paraspectre]

I’m pleased to say that the snow has since melted. He’s all good

[@fucinoc.3227]

I was eating while watching, and when the rules started I looked away to take a bite and out of nowhere I hear MDB voice, and then looked back at the screen in surprise.

[@Paraspectre]

Haha this reaction is why I asked him to do it

[@RiverPond17]

The voice reading the rules makes me wonder what fossil I should pick

[@northdakotagamer]

That Wigglytuff is super underrated

[@fabiomcmuffin]

When using Do the Wave, I’m just picturing the Easter bunny completely surrounded by eggs and using them to absolutely beat the opponent into the ground

[@Paraspectre]

That’s pretty much the ideal representation

[@Zeuseus6609]

Hahaha, MDB cameo had my pausing my game to check what was going on

[@marxistharpy]

Happy Easter!

[@Paraspectre]

Likewise!

[@Nick_Slavik]

After getting into the video, Chansey is now less of a snub, but still a snub lol and I LOVE that MD f'n B did the rules section! 🤣nice touch! 👌🤣

[@Paraspectre]

It just didn’t feel right using Chansey ☺️

[@Nick_Slavik]

@@Paraspectre no worries, I get it ☺️ I appreciate the replies to comments too btw 🙂 I obviously don't expect responses, but they are nice to see 👍

[@pesilaratnayake162]

Exeggcute's Pokédex entry at the bottom of the card... I blame Spike for that one! Also, Do The Wave is badass. Always a fun one if you can load up your bench!

[@Paraspectre]

I didn’t even read that until now 😅 I’m the egg enabler

[@Ddoublechin]

This challenge made me think how I retesting an explosion/self destruct challenge would be. You could consider using big eggsplosion too

[@Acacius1992]

4× defender. As a few have explosion/self destruction moves they could survive with defender

[@Paraspectre]

I do have this idea on my ideas sheet. Gotta be tough to pull off

[@kami_reaper147]

Glorious cameo from MDB there

[@joefarrow1599]

I'm loving the Mario RPG soundtrack

[@Paraspectre]

Some of the best video game music ever

[@Dan55888]

Mario RPG nusic matching the areas with gyms. Booster at the fighting gym lol. Just like when you did Zelda temples for gyms Oh! And MDB Cameo

[@Paraspectre]

I’ve used the music from two of my top three favorite games of all time now ☺️

[@Dan55888]

@@Paraspectre what is the third?

[@Paraspectre]

Resident Evil 4

[@bodkin8914]

Darn, I just have to comment again..... I don't know why but your videos always lift my mood. It's crazy how well they are to me. Thanks big big thanks from germany

[@Paraspectre]

I’m always glad to hear that, thank you

[@infinitesheldon5710]

MDB easter egg during the rule segment was great.

[@Paraspectre]

I actually viewed it as an “Easter egg” too. I’m glad that translated well ☺️

[@DJ_Dave]

The ending! Isn't that like murder! Lolz

[@Paraspectre]

But… the happy music… 😅

[@Nick_Slavik]

Omg! 🤣😂 Love the TMNT clip!

[@Nick_Slavik]

And ya, I'm probably gonna be commenting as I go through this video lol 🤷‍♂️

[@Paraspectre]

I miss the arcade game

[@Nick_Slavik]

@@Paraspectre right!?! I have a mini NES and it has the arcade games on it. I played with my boys and they laughed at the 8-bit graphics 🤣 such nostalgia

[@Mwolf55]

You could've used Exeggutor. The Sunday before Easter is palm Sunday after all

[@Paraspectre]

That’s… I didn’t think of that

[@keegandebruyn6567]

Nice

[@darkfangnightcrow]

I would like to see you do a Squirtle wartortle and blastoise only run through the second game.

[@Paraspectre]

Could be fun! At one point, Blastoise was my favorite Pokémon so there would be a reason for it

[@darkfangnightcrow]

@@Paraspectre Blastoise is my favourite starter from those games but Starmies my overall fave Pokémon of all time

[@shikabaneconga]

i love me that new intro

[@Paraspectre]

Another Easter miracle

[@Marrer_osrs]

is there no mods for these games? i mean i wanna play them so bad but with so many quality of life updates XD they og deck making systems. geez :D

[@GacNac]

Clefairy/Clefable are my favorite pokemon. Maybe on day they'll make it in a special =) This was a very cool one

[@Paraspectre]

That would be a fun one. Metronome only

[@dragonmaster613]

Actually Exeggutor could represent Palm Sunday

[@xKAITA]

i enjoy that tlc reference

[@Paraspectre]

TLC was it back then

[@mateus_upd1084]

I love your Pokemln TCG videos! I'd suggest you play the hack/mod rom Pokemon TCG Neo, it changes almos all the cards to gen 2 cards. It also does some balancing in the game. Idk if it can work for new challenges but it can be a cool spinoff!

[@Paraspectre]

I have heard of this! I should, just for something different

[@ave_maria323]

Happy Easter

[@Paraspectre]

You as well!

[@ave_maria323]

@@Paraspectre thank you. Hope yours is amazing

[@thepokekid01]

That has to be the world's nicest parasect (After Legends Arceus I mean)

[@Paraspectre]

Spike deals with a lot

[@MarkLogna]

I want to see the ultimate battle with Pokemon TCG's infamous RNG: Only using attacks and Pokemon Powers with the word "random" in them. I think this only allows you to deal damage with Promo Meowth, Promo Pidgeot, Promo Articuno, and Promo Zapdos, with no control of who you hit (Mew if you allow Card Pop Pokemon). Also, if I remember right, Zapdos can hit your own Pokemon, so good luck with that. How much can you use Trainer cards to minimize a deck that needs to relies solely on randomness?

[@Paraspectre]

I kinda like this idea. The strategy is just hoping for the best

[@loulou3676]

This video made me wanna play mario RPG

[@Paraspectre]

Do it. It’s the best game of all time

[@drascia]

IS THAT THE SMRPG FOREST THEME I HEAR 🤩🤩🤩

[@jerryreed6024]

Took me 2 days to find it but gotta f8nd the Easter eggs in the video

[@Paraspectre]

There indeed ARE Easter eggs in the video

[@PatchyConvert]

Egg-cellent... I shall see myself out. 😅

[@Paraspectre]

Someone had to say it

[@Ryu_D]

Thank you for the video. Y'know, after getting help from some legendary people for this video, maybe it's time to get some help from legendary Pokemon for the next one. Just saying. :)

[@Paraspectre]

Those legendaries are so far out of my league. It feels wrong to even look at them, they’re so mighty.

[@Ryu_D]

@@Paraspectre It'd still be really fun to watch. Maybe let Spike do a run with them instead, as a special gift (or maybe, something something- Mathew kidnaps you and demands the legendary cards, so Spike uses them to rescue you in the only way possible in a challenge run video, by beating the game with them. *Shrugs* Just an idea.). It'd also be cool to try a run with the special pikachu cards (flying and surfing). I'm not sure how hard it would be to get them, since I think at least one of them requires you to beat the game first, so if you do decide to give it a go, using codes or a previous save would probably help a lot to cut down the grind. Regardless, I look forward to seeing your next challenge, whatever it is. :)

[@loiscarmilla]

MDB?? Ariana what are you doing here 🤣💗

[@Paraspectre]

It’s a very unorthodox Easter

[@jacobwilbers9852]

Are you gonna do a run of the neo romhack with Gen 2 mons and a new story?

[@Paraspectre]

I’ve certainly thought of doing this. Doesn’t it not follow the physical cards exactly though?

[@jacobwilbers9852]

@Paraspectre not exactly, but changes like giving mons moves they had in the games the ai has not been changed, but the npcs have more deck types it strives for balance, not just some wacky fakemon nonsense like alot of fan pokemon games

[@shikabaneconga]

1k in 4 hours holy krabby

[@baedenne605]

Okay how about one with only mons that explode

[@BubbyBoy]

If anyone is reading comments, how do I get wigglytuff and clefable?

[@user-bg3tp2zo9g]

So chansey doesn't count as the people waking up and gathering the eggs

[@Paraspectre]

Well I GUESS you could say that. I didn’t want to use Chansey just to make it simpler

[@th3ra83]

I hope you will do Rattata and Raticate Challenge someday ❤

[@Paraspectre]

I KINDA did that in my Mega Man challenge. I started with only them until unlocking other types.

[@th3ra83]

@@Paraspectre wouldn't it be more interesting to go through all along the way with only Rattata and Raticate?

[@ZodiacMeteor]

You should trying beating Pokemon TCG in one punch-er, one turn. Probably requires a ton of save states for RNG but that's okay, can it be done?

[@Paraspectre]

That does sound like a TON of resets. But that kinda gave me an idea. I can only deal damage if it one shots the Pokémon 🤔
