Pokémon As a Roguelite is INCREDIBLE! | Let's Try PokéRogue

[@d-chan4357]

Oh this game is very addicting once you get a hang of it, watch out. Since you were confused about your luck being "D". Luck is a mechanic that increases a chance an item drop will level up (so go from a Pokeball tier to Greatball tier, from great ball to ultra etc.) and increases the more shinies you have in your team. So yes, shiny Pokemon actually have an important gameplay purpose and the shiny gacha is the best to play!

[@fated4glory816]

I dont see anyone saying it in comments yet, but if you press your esc key you can go into settings and also use your egg vouchers via the egg gacha. Also you had a purple outline around treecko, that's a sign of pokerus for additional exp

[@DrakeFeatherwing]

Or M (for Menu, aptly enough)

[@MrHoooover]

Thanks for saying what the purple outline is!

[@TheItachikiller]

after searching for a female combee for over an hour, just watching reto casually yeet one off the face of the earth did a little bit of psychic damage

[@lazypops3117]

it's super effective ! 😢

[@HER0_]

This made me irrationally angry, I was also looking for one

[@ILiekFishes]

honey gather may unironically be better than anything vespiquen brings to the table

[@justzanu9338]

One important thing to note is that floor hazard and stat changes are stay between wild battle, so if you got sand attacked by 1st stage mon on the 2nd stage you will still have you accuracy lowered. Until your pokemon _comeback_ to the ball.

[@Ashkihyena]

Might have to try this myself before Nintendo yeets it.

[@Almethese84]

Pretty sure this qualifies as fair use and isn't monitized so Nintendo has no recourse. If they did have recourse to shut it down, it would have already been served a cease and disist order.

[@At0529]

That's fair to be honest, but just if ever Nintendo takes down this game too... then yet another premenition of WW3 would start.

[@kazeiroP]

@@Almethese84 you can't be so sure yet tbh, it could be soon or it could take years. The whims of Nintendo is unpredictable...

[@Nephenon]

@@Almethese84thats not how it works, considering what got shot down in the past.

[@hugofontes5708]

​@@Almethese84 as far as I recall and understand, checked again just in case, there's no fair use in Japan. I'm not sure about the legal international jumble that comes out of a person in another country with fair use launching and distributing material with their Japanese IP on it but they have in several occasions sent cease and desist notices. In fact, they even took down KZbin videos over their stuff before because KZbin would have to defend themselves individually in each country without fair use laws. TL;DR, maybe yes but maybe not, historically often not

[@Esmeareen]

Me: Meeting all day tommorrow. Should turn in early. Also me: *plays 5 hours of this until 2 am*

[@thechynd448]

Sleep normally lasts a random number of turns (1-3 in Gen 5 and onwards) but Rest is special and will always put you to sleep for 2 turns. Any idea what the purple box around Treecko and some of the other starters means?

[@Nephthys575]

The purple box means the Pokemon starts with pokerus. Pokemon infected with pokerus gain more experience

[@drax1526]

I saw other people check this out recently, and the first time I saw it, my brain said "Oh lord, Reto is gonna love this." Pro tip, set up moves (Swords Dance, Shell Smash, etc.) persist between battles until you recall the mon (which happens at the beginning of every trainer battle). Hazards (spikes, stealth rocks, sticky webs, T-Spikes) stick around for 5 battles.

[@chrism7067]

thats really cool interaction

[@theabomination33]

Just gotta say your the roguelike godfather .Saw others playing this then found out you beeen on this game so I got a whole series to binge .👍👍

[@syntaxx0]

of course reto gets further in his first run than the poketubers I watched, don't know what I expected

[@ianjordan8964]

It's probably because pokemon has a higher floor than generally rouglites and that you need to use the rouglite effectively to get to where incredible pokemon knowledge matters

[@ultimateprogamer5843]

I'd absolutely love to see more of this I loved your Pokemon Emerald Rouge and to me this seems like Emerald Rouge 2.

[@darklink2300]

as someone who has 6 and a half days of actual playtime into pokerogue, i'm really happy this is getting some attention and traction, it's a really fun game and I'm glad to see you are enjoying it

[@jeremyparkhurst5754]

Lol cant wait till reto finds out a regular run lasts 200 floors

[@Retromation]

[@thedoubledoor2055]

Please more of this! Its such a great watch!

[@ioniccrossgamer1802]

Instantly the start up sound is the same one thats in explorers of sky when your answering the questions for witch pokemon u become. The nostalgia 😭😭

[@SentientLoop_Laurb]

Great first run retro ! Thank you for making me discover this banger of a game ! I’m actually blown away by the faithfulness of this roguelite regarding its source material. Also, I really appreciate the use of the mystery dungeon soundtrack ! I would definitely like to watch some more runs and I will definitely try it out as soon as I get the time ! Just hoping Nintendo won’t send it to the shadow realm anytime soon…

[@eraserdusting1840]

The low view count makes me so sad, this Let's Try is awesome! Maybe keep playing it and see if another episode or two helps?

[@Retromation]

oh don't worry, my views are terrible across the board the last month, this is my 2nd highest viewed video of the week which is itself sad for a different reason lol. The first few episodes of Hades 2 were obviously good but everything else dove off a cliff, I'd say this did well enough for another episode at least.

[@SentientLoop_Laurb]

@@Retromationi have been following you since the gungeon era and you have made me discover a bunch of great games ! And your channel has since become a staple on my subscription feed. I was very impressed to learn that you were the one who influenced the creation of rainbow mode in gungeon, a mode that I still enjoy playing up to this day ! It’s really sad that you don’t get the recognition that you deserve and I really hope that the tides will soon turn in your favour. Keep up the great work !

[@strider714]

Don't forget we're quickly approaching the end of the school year for a large chunk of the gaming demographic, so finals and such so tend to take priority

[@SentientLoop_Laurb]

@@strider714 That is true. However I always thought that this channel was under appreciated.

[@Chris-cb5xh]

Just want to say reto I stopped watching hades 2 after the first couple of episodes because I don't want any more spoilers 😅

[@dantagator1760]

if you do continue playing this (please do) mabye look at speeding it up a bit in the settings just makes it play a bit faster

[@Coffeewings334]

I’d love to see some more! This game has pretty interesting roguelite mechanics

[@Talijo1]

More please, this one gets MUCH better with time.

[@RobinOrMouf]

I still remember the last pokemon roguelike you played, I hope we get loads of more to see of this one from you!

[@someone7678amogus]

This fangame is amazing by the way passives once unlocked are secondary abilities that are just there for that pokemon evolution line at least if you pick it at start (bosses also have that pokemons passive but lose it once caught sadly)

[@staceyabar5693]

I love watching you play Pokemon. I'd watch you play a 50 part series if you'd be up to play it that long

[@Shinymewkiwi]

the fact that one of his initial starters had pokerus is insane

[@davidmcculloch7709]

Please do more! This game is the best! All the battling without all crappy over world stuff!

[@djskype020202]

I would really love to see more of this. This was very fun watching you play

[@riccardomosena4162]

"definitely not need a zigzagoon" You will change idea after learning a few things xD (or find someone better with the same mechanic) Also, double battles are a way to get more exp quickly if you need it or have a good combo (like earthquake and someone qith levitate or is flying)

[@benjaminfrost2780]

More please for sure. I love pokemon and roguelite/likes. So having a series that is both played by my favorite roguelite/like youtuber would be awesome.

[@prismaturtle8457]

Man i was seeing this everywhere, was rly hoping you'd play, now I can binge this

[@Drumhellerify]

Bulbasaur mains unite!

[@jacethomas5562]

Here!

[@Gatoucho]

Bulbasaur gang!

[@Wrath-_-]

Started playing this since the active player count was 500, def one of the best pokemon game, btw candies are used for passives (2nd ability) or point reduction

[@kennethgray7020]

Seems pretty sweet honestly. Hopefully everything is tuned properly to make for fair, yet challenging runs. Definitely something I'd try out.

[@Ben-fi6ro]

Oh my god no way retromation is playing this ive been addicted to this game fir the past month lets go

[@legeul]

Luck is related to the odds of the pokeballs that have items in it after each battle, upgrading to higher tier balls thus giving you better items. And this is where shiny pokemon come into play, shiny pokemon in your team increase your luck stat, thus giving you better chance of getting better items after each battle. In this game each pokemon has 3 diferent shiny variants, normal, rare and rogue. Normal shiny pokemon have a luck value of 1. Rare shiny have a luck value of 2 Rogue shiny have a luck value of 3. Because shinies are kinda important in this game, the shiny egg gacha ends up being the best option.

[@dantagator1760]

I was waiting for this!

[@TheWolfLucifersAngel]

Cool i was waiting for you to review

[@rinco1532]

I do recommend not really catching anything for the beginning of the game and just focus on leveling up your starter pokemon Also, getting lures

[@igorcanova3052]

I discovered the game through your video and I think I'm having more fun with this than I had with Pkmn Scarlet/Violet.

[@magentalamb3589]

I am currently addicted to this game, PLEASE MORE

[@Ezefrain_]

Bro you gotta do more of this

[@Erothaur]

Quick tip, Shiny pokemon actually do something in this game. They boost the odds of higher rarity items showing up just by being in your party.

[@light6666]

One tip always catch eevee's.. no really its mainly cause eevee is a mon you cant go wrong with in any senario

[@azuwer4060]

It seems fun. I would definitely like to see more of this especially if you enjoy playing it

[@JohnSmith-dr5zn]

You ever just see a new game and ALREADY know you'll soon be addicted to it? This is it for me lol. I've already spent a few months on Pokemon emerald rogue

[@Mogri1]

"I have a feeling Lick was not going to do enough" This is always true, but it's even more true against Normal-types :)

[@larsknopf5253]

Would love to see more of this!

[@trueperson-o2z]

Please play this more often! I would watch daily releases of this.

[@stillanargya7837]

What a joy of a game, please play more if it

[@kevinproskawetz7774]

This looks really addicting haha but i love it , hope to see more episodes of this

[@Starwolfy8240]

I like the queen. Vespiqueen is only female you should of caught it as combee is skewed towards male.

[@rovietergeek]

I would love a series on this

[@Parrexion]

This just look and plays amazing. There are so many good ideas that I would love to see more of in games.

[@addisonjacoby]

They even captured the way one Pokémon becomes an XP hog and becomes powerhouse. Excellent stuff.

[@dodgebenson17]

i've been waiting for you to play this since i heard about it!! great episode

[@sillyspekter4420]

Retro passing on female combee is wild. Vespiqueen is so sick

[@Knetterkoekje]

This game is the absolute best, be warned if you like pokémon in general you will be inevitable absolutely addicted to this game! Play with extreme caution :D

[@erikfisher5528]

This has really cool mechanics i hope to see more of it😊

[@ricdinchirock3625]

This is actually really cool! Can't wait to see the pokemon company nuke another fun twist from orbit...

[@mothdreams]

This is super fun looking tbh

[@RickyRatte]

Oh, I thought it was the Pokemon Roguelike hack that's been around for a while now, so I didn't click when this video came out. Now that I decided to watch in anyways, I'm hooked on this!

[@Retromation]

Yep different one, but I did cover Emerald Rogue too

[@HeavenLeahSky]

16:40 tis tis, we all know you have to have a great ball to catch abra

[@andrewscussel9165]

I’ve never seen this, but I love it

[@otarthemad1782]

I would literally tune in everyday if Reto started a 100% playthrough of this.

[@arekukunmultigaming6740]

It's really nice and refreshing, definitely gonna try to catch up with the playlist ^^

[@THESILENTMUSTACHE]

This was wonderful and I hope you play more!

[@22heisann]

I'm addicted to this

[@spoiled5787]

I need to see you beat this game! Do more

[@Budda523]

This game is absolutely amazing :) Would love to see you play more of it.

[@xHarpua]

Need more of this

[@tazmingetgood280]

I am the type of pokemon trainer that tries to keep their pokemon at equal levels (or close to) to avoid my strongest mon dying and then not being able to do anything. Though I did notice that the style of the fights would make it difficult to do so (as ivysaur was your only mon at 18 after being the focus of EXP), I guess double battles as much as possible. This looks really exciting though :D

[@ManiacDub]

Im watching this while shiny hunting charmander. I love pokerogue its so fun and shinies are so cool in the game and have a function. Venipede is a great pokemon btw it evolves into scolipede and can get speed boost.

[@edmondzhou8273]

I started and got three shinies in a row. Glitched?

[@sweetguy5240]

Looks fun would love to see more!

[@yourneighbourargus3976]

I wanna see more of this >:)

[@Webo250]

Aint no way he rolled an exp charm and the tm for sludge bomb on his first two encounters ever 😂

[@pascalstahl2448]

Go Pokerogue!

[@daviddrotos561]

So erm, how do you actually do anything? I click the stat screen and suddenly i am unable to get off the stat screen as its all keyboard controls with no instructions lmao, cant see any move descriptions or anything ingame until it comes to swapping at which point you've wasted your item. Fun game but needs work

[@Retromation]

never had that issue, the game does work and saying it doesn't because of one issue that you've had is a bit hasty

[@lookupandfindout]

Hindsight is 20/20 moment, but had you gone ahead and used Sludge Bomb on that swap instead of growth, you may have 1 shot the Staravia. But like I said, hindsight and all that

[@Retromation]

Yep!

[@eamonshea4566]

I know bidoof seems weak/boring but if it has “simple” as its ability and you teach it swords dance it becomes a legitimate sweeper, just sayin. Game looks fun!

[@doodwithayoutoob]

Series?

[@ChaloopaJoe]

Man I need more of this

[@ZaunDarksword]

I’ll throw in another voice in the support of more.

[@willmakesfilms]

would love to see more

[@kevinwilliams5427]

This seems really cool. Great fan game

[@theta1672]

Yes, more of this please!

[@jacksmith8403]

Combee is one of my favourites 😢

[@Bruce_P-Z]

Pokerouge! Such a cool game

[@brianp7745]

More please!

[@stewartclifton8323]

Please please pleeeeeeease more of this!!❤

[@PeachyAenne]

Combee is way better than the pokemon that is literally just an ice cream cone lolol! I do love that for every pokemon is loved by somebody!

[@Retromation]

completely valid!

[@KrischKrisch]

3rd encounter. Female combee. And he kills it. I.... I'm upset. 😂😂 I haven't found even one of 'em yet!

[@legiong792]

Please play more

[@codykrumm4421]

More would be amazing

[@Gnozac11]

omg we need more please

[@parkerflood2411]

How does this save if it is a web version of a game?

[@Retromation]

[@LaserStorm117]

Fucken trash biome killed me 😂

[@Mr.Larcenies]

[@playforfunnew]

[@SubjektDelta]
