When April Fools' Day is late... The Regis - Pokemon Emerald

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

Errors & Corrections: 1) Mawile is also a mono-steel type (the Bulbapedia list led me astray since the fairy-type was added in generation 6) 2) Regirock had blackouts in it's first playthrough because it had to lose against Wallace

[@BloodfelX]

Could hypothetically deplete Explosion and Self-Destruct PP against a Pokemon with the Damp ability to use Struggle, as a note. (Psyduck/Golduck/Wooper/Quagsire/Poliwag/Poliwhirl/Poliwrath/Politoed) (If this gets mentioned in the video I'll come back and edit this comment, and apologise for the obsolete comment.)

[@sup3rkidd333]

​@@BloodfelX it wouldn't work. None of these Pokémon appear in the early game (especially since his issues come before the first may battle), not to mention that the only line available in emerald is psyduck, only appearing in the wild in the safari zone.

[@BloodfelX]

@@sup3rkidd333 Indeed, leaves it only a hypothetical solution - and I think the Regis have more moves in Heart Gold and Soul Silver so I don't think it would even be needed there, though Woopers probably appear too late in Johto as well anyhow.

[@sup3rkidd333]

@@BloodfelX HGSS and platinum are actually possible for all 3, without the need for a damp Pokémon, as all of them have stomp as a starting move. Though if they didn't have that it wouldn't be possible as the earliest encounters with a damp Pokémon would be wooper in HGSS after violet city (which has 2 required battles to make it there) and psyduck in platinum in the ravaged path (which has a few required battles to make it there on route 202). This does however mean that diamond and pearl are impossible as they only have explosion in those games to begin with.

I wonder if you tried Sunny Day with Regirock to make Wallace easier.

Weird how much Pokemon content there is in this Star Craft video

[@KiranasOfRizon]

"I need to do a bug or flying type for my next run just so I can defeat this thing easily" A Volbeat vs Illumise run would be fun if you haven't done so already.

[@pommyadam]

Monkeys Paw.... oh Yanma! unfortunately not available natively in the Gen3 games (you'd need to trade for FRLG), so uhh.... Ninjask then (and yes I looked at the moveset first), YEEEES! the end of the video Beautifly vs Dustox would be another interesting challenge, given how the Wurmple evolves into one of them randomly apparently Wurmple's evolution isn't random, and that WOULD be an interesting technical deep-dive given the nature of these runs

[@andreapareti324]

Unfortunately, those Types are really stripped for STAB, this Gen still, so I don't think this is gonna go the way Scott hopes it will... still, those will surely be interesting (perhaps in a VS video?).

[@KiranasOfRizon]

@@andreapareti324 Well, at least Volbeat is one of the few pokemon able to use signal beam. I thought for a second Illumise was as well, but after looking at its moveset... ouch.

[@andreapareti324]

@@KiranasOfRizon Volbeat indeed technically has the second best Bug STAB in the games up until that point... but it's Volbeat; before the Physical-Special split that made Tail Glow actually synergize with Signal Beam. And yeah, Illumise is just STAB-less, alongside also being really bad. They'll have some STAB in the form of Signal Beam or Bug Hidden Power (ouch), but my point was that they're so bad they will probably still have trouble, possibly even against the dreaded Ludicolo nemesis 😅.

[@Mayolaise]

The regis cant beat the game on their own, but what if you use all three of them at the same time? They can theoretically switch train each other to victory, but i wonder how a three pokemon run would go in this format.

[@shawngreene9762]

Could do a gen 4 run and pit legendary trios against each other and rank that. Birds vs beasts vs golems vs sprites

[@AlexsGoogleAccount]

I love this idea! I've been wanting to do an all-Regi run in Gen 3 and I would have just given them a second move (like Stomp). It could be neat to leave them with their base moves and have to switch train them until they learn a new move. A 3-Pokemon run would be interesting too because you're splitting the EXP 3 ways so you won't be overlevelled as quickly and TMs are not reusable, so you'll have to be careful how you distribute them.

[@DonYagamoth]

I feel like this started out as an April Fools video about how all 3 of them are at the bottom of the Tierlist.. And then Scott tried to figure out in which order they should be in, and then genuinely tried to figure that out in the most scientific way possible - which ended up in a solo challenge for all the mons with the least intrusive change possible I don't know if this is right, but I love it already .Back to actually watching the video :)

[@intrepid_grovyle]

From the bottom of my heart, Scott, THANK YOU! Emerald vids are my fave and I especially love the Regis for their unsettlingly abstract designs. This was an amazingly fun and long video to watch

[@robertpiez9105]

Never saw such a high amount of resets for a legendary run. What a Regiscam

[@SmashMath151]

Well done as usual, Scott! I think Regice above Registeel was a fair result since it was still a bit faster even with worse luck. The Regirock redemption arc really impressed me!

[@drchops_4242]

I watched this video over the course of a couple days and to say this had me on the edge of my seat was and is an understatement. Scott, I love your videos, and you always do such a great job, explaining and playing these games. And I think this versus video is probably my favorite between all the jokes, the comparison, and just how tight the race was. It was incredible and I am looking so forward to seeing every new video you come to post. :)

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

Thanks for your comment! I’m also really happy with how this one turned out. I first thought it was going to be a shorter, silly video, but it turned into something with a lot of substance.

[@latrodectusmactans7592]

I’m sure this one is gonna be a blast.

[@sopadumacacoumadelicia5]

I can't watch right now so I'll leave a comment for algorithm support + a prediction. Regice will win, Registeel will start strong but will fall of a little and Regirock will lose but it's going to be close edit: this was a massive rollercoaster. I'm glad to see Rock's performance

[@Capslok23342]

wow, that is such a great idea for ranking the impossible ones, and also making a fun video about them! one of my favorites, for sure.

[@Peelster1]

I'd watch an Infested Terran only StarCraft run. But I also watch StarCraft challenge videos anyway. If I wasn't paying attention I would have thought this was a video from another tab I have open. Interesting solution to the Regi problem. They were never intended to be level 5. I likely would have started the run with them being level 10, but that also unbalances the rest of the tier list. Explosion if obviously useless in solo runs, it would be interesting to see how it can help in runs where you have a team.

[@theSato]

Ahhh I got to this video late, the Starcraft love always makes me happy, we should play someday! I'll send a message about the new channel as I'm a major expert on BW and can definitely offer some use over the long run. I saw that Infested Terran pro play match years ago. Hahaha.

[@andreapareti324]

Scott: proceeds to list and say that special/physical coverage with Regirock/Regice is completely useless. Also Scott: "So I chose a nature that lowers Speed/my best stat". Why oh why. Keep in mind I'm just at the early portion of the video, so I don't know what's gonna happen, eventual realizations and optimizations, but this isn't the first time you make... out there choices for natures, right after you express sound reasoning about the Pokémon's movepool and stats.

[@andreapareti324]

I have now gotten to the Regirock vs Wallace portion of the video and... yeah 😅; but hey, experimentation is interesting and making mistakes and learning from them is part of that, right? As always, I admire your approach - just *please* consider Adamant, Modest, Timid or Jolly much more often; I get that this is before the Physical-Special split, but I don't think it's usually worth it to have anything else for coverage, especially for Pokémon that are this skewed towards one kind of offense, so they will generally be more useful natures when going in blind for a Pokémon; you always have the next playthrough to make adjustments, if you feel they're really needed.

[@jocloud31]

This came on auto play after another video and I was VERY confused at first. I legitimately would be interested in some StarCraft videos though. Even though I have never played them more than a few minutes but listening to you talk about the infested Terran actually had me wondering about it. Goes to show that literally anything can be interesting if presented well!

[@mullet_muffins]

Great stuff. Glad these guys got a chance to compete, even if they can't officially rank well on the tier list. I am so down to watch you discuss classic StarCraft content

[@135forte]

As soon as you said you had high hopes for Regirock I laughed. 7/10 too much water.

[@ZerglingOne1]

Roxanne looking at the Ninjask playthrough: "That's a nice ability. Would be a shame if I viewed a particular move as speed control." Yikes. Looks like you'll be playing for misses.

[@andreapareti324]

I've also always felt the Regis were pretty emblematic of their Types! Granted, Regice is indeed slow, which is not ideal, for an Ice Type... but many of them are slow anyway; in that sense, I guess Regice is the quintessential Ice Type Pokémon, rather than incorporating well the Type itself and its strengths.

[@coonghoang7188]

I was really surprised about the starcraft intro. Normally I never knew anyone to really talk about that game unless they were in the community. Thanks for reminding me of that game, I spent years of my childhood playing it and it really brought me back

[@perkypenguin1663]

The dedication you have to these videos is very impressive. The fact that you looked at three Pokemon who could not solo a game and said "but how can I rank them within the impossible tier" is amazing. I probably would have considered a universe in which the Regis start with their respective weak STAB moves, or even have them start with Stomp like they do in later generations, but the solution you used was way funnier. I noticed you using early Rare Candies, which I think is really good and will drastically improve your Emerald play by considering which Pokemon need them and when. One thing I'd consider doing differently with the solos is I'd have made Marshtomp the rival for Regirock instead of Grovyle just because it resists Rock moves. It especially would've made the second fight harder and maybe would have required training for Secret Power. Very very good video! I'm excited for more Emerald VS videos!

[@kiwiciwi123]

Never that I thought i would be happy to see who is best in the impossible tier xD love it scott❤ gonna watch now bye

[@mr.number9279]

1:12:28 Steven swapping into Metagross to die to Earthquake was... uh... brilliant. Poor guy tried a switch strategy and got destroyed because of it lol. Great runs. Shame Regirock wasn't able to do as good later, but that's the fate of a Rock-type in Hoenn sadly.

[@Cyraxis7]

The way regirock looks in the thumbnail looks like a dude wearing a flat billed cap, and i cant unsee it

[@MFMegaZeroX7]

Scott, you have to learn to start your special day videos further in advanced, since we all know you are a perfectionist who will do 9873 playthroughs before he is satisfied :D

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

Funny story. I've been thinking that for like 2 years :P

[@SquirrelGamingProductions]

Scott, I used to play competitive Gen 3 You NEVER EVER EVER go with a negative speed nature The only good natures are Adamant, Jolly, Modest & Timid Figure out which of those 4 a Pokémon belongs to, & play it that way

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

I appreciate your comment. But this is limited thinking that doesn't apply when the context changes. Let me explain. In competitive your Pokemon are always going to be the same level with nearly maxed stats and ideal EVs. You also don't have a badge boost advantage over your enemy. In a play through the player gets EVs, level advantage, and badge boosts. The AI does not. Lowering speed can preserve your non-dominant attacking stat for specific moments. Having a higher attack with a special attacking mon can for example speed up early fights where that mon has to rely on tackle. Lowering total turns in battle by having a higher damage output reduces time. Also, defensive stats tend to be less important in solo runs because you know where you'll take damage against a set of fix enemy mons. As a result of this these natures tend to be the first options to consider: Rash, Naughty, then: Adamant, Modest If the Pokemon is extremely fast then considering speed lowering natures is better. I've recently learned that the base speed threshold is around 55-65 base speed. If you are above this a speed lower nature can be taken while still managing to outspeed the majority of targets in the run. The exceptions are Drake's Flygon (124) and Salamance (136), and Steven's Claydol (140). The fact of the matter is that solo running is fundamentally different from competitive play. Speed lowering natures can give a mon more flexibility with it's moves, especially when 1 mon has to solve a particularly different threat (or multiple) with constained moveset options.

[@alicewonder259]

I'm SO excited for this starcraft channel WHAT Honestly what initially got me into this channel years ago was my love for Pokemon/challenge runs.. but also that I never played gen 1 more than a little, and really didn't have much deep knowledge in it. Your super through/rigorous breakdowns with these solo runs was the perfect infodump wonder for me I've loved watching you go into games I know better, and refine your layout and gameplay with time. But losing that magic as you've moved to more familiar gens left me less engaged recently, in all honesty. I've barely ever played StarCraft, and know absolutely nothing. That taste in the intro really recaptured that magic again for me! I'm so excited for this new channel, honestly.

[@ALICE333]

Hearing that you’re a former competitive sc2 player makes so much sense for your analytical content! Really enjoying this one thanks man

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

Yeah - optimizing build orders translates well into optimizing solo challenges.

[@pauldm5222]

Love the intro. I used to play Starcraft as a kid. ♥️ One of the best games I've played.

[@Chronoflation]

Yeah, when you've got only 50 base special attack and are primarily a physical attacker, it's always best to go adamant. The nature drop to such a low stat is barely even going to affect the moves used when you do use the rare special attack for a physical attacker or vice versa. Even Regice would probably perform better overall as Modest if it can still manage to pull off Whitney at the same level. It might be worth doing various playthrough comparisons to test this, but yeah, glad to see you're learning more about natures

[@Chronoflation]

Lol, when you call Flannery Whitney cause you're traumatized from gen 2 and talking about a tough female gym leader 😂

[@MrMacdaddymcfly]

Thank you for taking the time to do extra playthroughs was definitely worth the video being a little late

Usually I wait to comment but oh my watching that StarCraft opening has just brought me back to being 8 years old. I was the exact same as you Scott and wasn't allowed the internet so played StarCraft campaign exclusively! However I preferred the Terrans cause I always thought I'd be like the marines I instantly went and subscribed to your other channel and I am very excited. Of course I don't remember StarCraft looking such high quality compared to my cube monitor back in the day haha

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

They released a fantastic remaster of the game a few years back. It feels very faithful in style but dramatically improves the visuals.

[@under-fan7492]

These runs were quite the roller coaster with all their twists and turns, and I enjoyed it a lot Great work as always Scott, your videos are the highlight of my saturdays :)

[@zekemusic89]

Anyone else feel like Scott is biased against ice types? I feel like every time one of these has a good time in a versus video, he is convinced one of the other combatants can do better, and he will do repeat playthroughs until one of them beats the ice type. Give the ice type some love too!

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

I'll have to examine that within myself. I don't think I am bias against them. It's hard to communicate the total experience of playing a run in a video like this. Regice was DRAMATICALLY less consistent than the other two. I had to restart the run over and over. It just kept losing to the early game trainers. The other two did not play like that. I'd be happy to be proven wrong though, so if anyone wants to sit down and play these runs 3+ times like I did I'll happily review their results and do more runs myself.

[@yoshi6421]

Ice type is infamously bad though. They are Game Freak's red-headed stepchild.

[@inventiveusername5191]

I've said this before, but I find ranking within impossible tiers kind of fascinating. There'll certainly be others for gen3 - Wurmple, the cocoons and Feebas are all obvious, as well as some mons from other gens if Scott gets round to them. However it will still be interesting to see if there's any point where the playthrough is actually impossible for any or all of those or just monumentally improbable. Either way, they're all getting further than the unmodified Regis. Then there's a separate question of whether, like with Red in JRose's gen2 Spinarak run, there are any unevolved mons with actual movesets that just don't have any way to solve Steven so also drop into the top end of the "improbable" tier. Poochyena feels a strong candidate and I could also see it happen with Azurill (decent movepool but absolutely pathetic stats) or Slakoth (lolTruant).

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

Yeah, there will likely end up being and improbable and impossible tier. For now ranking these three was easy, but I'll have to examine each circumstance individually as they appear in the future.

[@michaelroywright9975]

Regice gets Bolt-Beam!? That's some great coverage.

[@dustinbuck6385]

I would love to see explosion be an option in play throughs. I think changing it to where it is a priority move that leaves you on 1 HP so if you don't knock out you run the risk of getting ko'd next turn!

[@effy9526]

I'm only at 48:00 into the video so far, so I don't know if you end up doing this, but I wanted to comment now because I know if I wait til the end I'll forget - I wonder if Registeel could have learned Substitute from the Lilycove move tutor over Hidden Power to deal with Juan rather than just setting up Curses raw. With a Persim Berry to shake off the first Sweet Kiss, I don't think the Luvdisc could really break the sub very easily, and obviously you can just re-learn Hidden Power from the Slateport vendor. Given Luvdisc's awful attacking stats, it can't really break a substitute; the only reason it's annoying is confusion, which substitute would protect you from, leaving it as basically setup fodder. Just a thought.

[@derekrobb2458]

Only scott would put this much effort into an april fools videos and thats why we love him.

[@saltytyranitar6981]

I think Regice using the Swagger strategy can get by the Rival at a much lower level and then make up the difference in Watson's gym, saving a lot of time. I think it has the highest ceiling out of all the Regis.

[@ScottsThoughtsPokemon]

That's definitely possible. Regirock can clean up it's overworld routing a lot though with an Abra that's easier to obtain than with Regice. I think those two might continue to trade results.

[@Miro_X]

Man, that this video started with a Starcraft reference made me smile. Though I can't call Infested Terrans weak in sc2 given the problems they caused in both Wings of Liberty and Legacy of the Void.

Registeel is my favorite golem. My guess would be Rock but then i realized Ice has bolt/beam so i guess it could clean house.

The electric one doesn't really fit either, but its at least kind of symmetrical.

[@pyrotempestwing]

I mean the whole ages of history thing still fits with the newer ones: Regice - Ice Age Regirock - Stone Age Registeel - Iron Age Regidrago - Dark Age Regiekeki - Modern Age Although I will admit the Gen VIII Regis do feel a tad off in that regard
