Pokemon Stadium 2 | Round 3 | Rival | 2/2

Safeguard was binned in order to make his Pokemon more offensive. As you can tell from the get go, Lugia was straight onto the attack with Psychic, something he will hardly ever do in Round 1 or 2 as he will always go for the safeguard first, unless he knows he can cause major damage.
You may have noticed that Mew despite being a shiny has still got max stats. That's because for Mew, I had it's stats completely ignore it's genetics (Maybe a hint at Round 4), so the stats weren't effected by it's shiny status. As for the battle itself. I feel that I shouldn't have started with Zapdos, and instead started with Starmie. I was apprehensive to switch out which is what I normally would do, because the Rival was much more offensive in this battle than in any of the others. Instead I thought it was a better choice to sacrifice a few Pokemon instead of switching out. The latter giving him another turn.

This in my opinion might be the best Pokémon game. The announcer, the mannerisms of the Pokémon… I was legit an addicted elementary kid when this game dropped. Also epic music.

[@NessNoldo]

Yeah, the care of details and content here was sublime. Games nowadays don't have this.

[@Derellrassy87]

That was heated battle my friend, I am so happy didn't keep switching out...that's the perfect final with the rival I was expecting....the 5 God legendary/mythical pokemon that rival would have this shit is awesome no lie

[@bowserlv100]

13:20 Noooo ono no no no no, OH MY GOD! Rhydon Kick Zap Cannon? Excelente.

[@ATTLASXD]

Awesome job this is awesome hack and and great series thanks so much for finishing this can't wait to see round 4:)

[@Derellrassy87]

Absolutely all the 5 strongest pokemon of generation 1 and 2 now that's what I expect the rival to have....this is once in a life time battle

[@LinktoSonic]

Lady Luck was on this guy’s side. His Thunders never missed and always paralyzed. Also always landed those hydro pumps and zap cannons

[@PokeRush415]

It wasn't luck when I have stated earlier in the playthrough that the accuracy for Thunder, Blizzard, Hydro Pump, Dynamicpunch, Fire Blast, Zap Cannon all had there base accuracy increased. Also in this video there's a reason why Mewtwo opts to use Thunder and Fire Blast instead of Psychic, and that's because the opponent detects the increased accuracy of those moves, so it uses them. The chance of a Pokemon becoming paralyzed outside of Zap Cannon and Thunder Wave was not modified.

I was lucky with that paralyse to be fair.

[@matthiassachse7813]

Das kommt die Kindheit wieder zurück. Ein beeindruckender Kampf obwohl ich die Pokemonauswahl sehr fragwürdig finde. Wieso nehme ich ein Machomei mit, obwohl der Gegner ausschließlich Flug- und Psychopokemon dabei hat. Zum Anderen verwundert mich bei Attacken wie Donner und Hydropumpe die 100% Treffgenauigkeit. In deinen anderen Videos trifft die Blitzkanone auch fast immer. Das war bei den Spielen Pokemon Stadium 1+2 nie der Fall. Auch die hohe Volltrefferquote ist nicht realistisch. Und wenn der Donner trifft kommt die Statusbeeinträchtigung auch gleich mit. Alles sehr eigenartig.

[@PokeRush415]

I tried to keep my Pokemon selection the same or very similar throughout the entire playthrough of all 3 Rounds. Yes I could've switched out Machamp for another Pokemon but regardless, he still won the battle. As for the accuracy. For Round 3, Thunder, Fire Blast, Hydro Pump, Dynamicpunch, Zap Cannon, Blizzard all had there accuracy increased. Dou to an oversight on my part the opponent didn't get that benefit until much later. That's why in this battle Mewtwo opts to use Thunder and Fire Blast as it detects the increased accuracy of those moves. Zap Cannon already has a 100% paralyses rate if it hits, but Thunder's rate of paralyses was not modified. Thunder also has a higher chance to paralyse than Thunderbolt, so if the accuracy of Thunder is increased to that of Thunderbolt, the rate of paralyses would increase through that accuracy. Again though the paralyses chance modifier was not modified.

Add Snorlax on this battle - to make it more challenging Mew needs a weak swords dance set - it’s not that scary without swords dance Celebi seems fine as it is does it know psychic ?

[@PokeRush415]

I think Celebi had Psychic, I'm not to sure. I know it was holding Miracle Seed, which is why it's Giga Drain was so powerful. As for Snorlax, I was contemplating adding another Pokemon to this battle, but Snorlax was already in the first battle. If I did add another Pokemon it wouldn't have likely been Snorlax. Machamp was also in my team. With the introduction of cross chop in Gen II, and a Machamp with black belt, it can pretty much one hit KO a Snorlax.

[@Derellrassy87]

Why would he add snorlax, he using 5 legendary god/mythical pokemon why would use a non legendary especially when your arrival only use the strongest legendary and mythical pokemon...you make no sense its all about the move pool lugia should have learn blizzard for zapdos instead or ice beam

[@Derellrassy87]

​@PokerRush415 lol don't listen to him the 5 god legendary/mythical pokemon was the only way to go...this is one for the ages thanks my friend

[@bryanc1772]

@@Derellrassy87Snorlax is the best Pokémon ever in Gen 2. There’s no reason not to use the big lug. Even much much more threatening then all 5 legendaries .

[@Derellrassy87]

​@bryanc1772 not when it go up against lugia one and one or a fighting type like machamp even mewtwo on hoho would overcome him...again the rival is a legendary trainer he wants you all the god pokemon that's the whole point I am making...if he had snorlax might as well use normal pokemon...that battle only make sense if it was these pokemon for a rival that use the strongest pokemon I don't what will

[@shaquonAbrams]

U got too many rng hits to posted this imo

[@PokeRush415]

If you're talking about the accuracy, I stated a lot earlier that moves such as Zap Cannon, Thunder, Blizzard, Fire Blast, Dynamicpunch and Hydro Pump all had there base accuracy increased for Round 3. Unfortunately because of a mistake on my part, the opponent didn't get that benefit till much later. In this video that's why Mewtwo opted to use Thunder to finish off Zapdos rather than his Psychic, because he detects the increased accuracy of that move. Critical hits and the chance to paralyse where not modified.

[@shaquonAbrams]

@@PokeRush415 I'm talked about the crits and para

[@PokeRush415]

​@@shaquonAbrams The critical hits where not modified. Thunder has a 30% chance to paralyse compared to Thunderbolts 10%. Because the accuracy of Thunder was increased, that meant that Thunder's chance to paralyse would've been increased through it's accuracy, and not by the paralyses chance modifier being directly modified within Thunder.

[@x127x]

Rhydon faster than Celebi?! Serious?!

[@PokeRush415]

Not faster. My Rhydon always holds a Quick Claw.

[@x127x]

@@PokeRush415 Quick Claw doesn't work 100%!

[@PokeRush415]

@@x127x The way my Quick Claw has worked throughout my entire playthrough has not changed. There has been plenty of examples of opponent Pokémon going before my Rhydon and my Steelix, even when they where holding Quick Claws.

[@jtaylor3981]

How did you get round 3?

[@PokeRush415]

There isn't an official Round 3. This was just something that I decided to modify. I made it so that all trainers use 6 Pokemon with more powerful moves, and they're maxed EV and DV trained.

[@raw-kun1328]

@@PokeRush415how do that? Can make a tutoríal please 🙏🏻 and it can modify the music of the game too?

[@PokeRush415]

​@@raw-kun1328 It's not that simple. Someone's ability to modify the game comes down to how much one knows about scripting. You wouldn't really learn anything from a tutorial on how to modify the game. Instead, learning how to use Cheat Engine which is the memory editor that I use to modify the game will be a much better option. There are plenty of tutorials on KZbin that can teach you how to use the program.

[@raw-kun1328]

@@PokeRush415 oh ok , cheat engine Can modify music too?

[@PokeRush415]

​@@raw-kun1328 Yes cheat Engine is a very powerful tool once you learn how to use it. It will allow you to modify it to another existing track in the game. If the track that you want to use is outside of the game, like from Stadium 1, you will need to mute it using the memory editor and then edit the track in using editing software.
