Can You Beat Pokerogue With Only Normal Pokemon?

[@davisreynaud1287]

Editing in this one was way easier to follow! Classic chillin with Skoottie vibes

[@Dereckkkk]

This game is so hard on its own, I can't fathom doing a challenge on it. Good job Skoot!

[@OurLance]

Once you hatch a legendary, the game becomes way easy

[@snowwitch1752]

i can promise you with A good legendary the game would still be hard on the early game floor 1-1500~ mid game is the most fun out of it i think.

[@unrealhuman3hd341]

You just have to be Lucky

[@tyrantworks9604]

@@OurLance not even a legendary, there are plenty of busted egg moves. I think my catapult pokemon was hisuian qwilfish with fishious rend as an egg move. Gets merciless as a passive, gets fell stinger that ups atk by 3 stages if it knocks out an opponent with it, gets minimize, and both toxic spikes and toxic. This monster does a shit load of damage, can ramp up to +6 pretty easily, and minimize gets you to +6 evasion pretty fast and easily. Three playstyles with this thing, the hyper carry nuke, the staller, and the tech nuker using merciless to guarantee crits on poisoned targets. Barb Barrage and Fishious Rend are just insane moves. you've got moves that hit 120 base power if you trigger their bonus, be faster than opponent or hit poisoned enemy, on top of a +6 atk on top of guaranteed crits with the safety net of +6 evasion.

[@Zorothegallade-rpg]

Mono normal Classic mode gets easy if you unlocked some of Zangoose's stuff: -Toxic Boost as its main ability -Poison Heal as its passive -Grab a Toxic Orb (the game will start offering it to you if you have Mons that benefit from holding it) -Façade everything except ghosts, Night Slash ghost types

[@ZorinNephalemz]

Overleveling Porygon was actually a bad idea. If you go read the pokerogue wiki page, you'll find out that Eternatus actually deals double damage to pokemon above level 200.

[@matsuda_blossom2704]

Note, only one of its moves deals double damage.

[@Snowstorm174]

interesting, glad to know that.

[@Zorothegallade-rpg]

@@Snowstorm174 It's Dyna Cannon, meaning Fairy types are safe to overlevel.

[@happymw4573]

love the editing :)

[@ElistaoDiolho]

Better than the first video

[@emanuelcohen2556]

There is no editing

[@Rykarie]

I just did this earlier today, no legendaries/ anything more than 3 points. Hoothoot was the MVP, solo'd 90% of the battles, rest of my team was just fodder. Moveset: Esper wing, calm mind, roost, boomburst. Enough to 1v1 eternatus

[@mathbuster0999]

I caught a Greedent at the start of the game, throughout my run it learned the move counter. I thought nothing of it. Come down to the 195 battle and lily’s mega ray crit my Greedent down to 16 hp. I used counter, and since the mega ray had -2 stages of defense, I one shot the mega ray. Top 10 greedent moments of all time

[@kevin1153]

-2 stages of D didn’t matter. Counter does a set 2x of damage taken.

[@creeperEXplode42069]

Top 1 Greedent moment in general

[@jja0518]

Skootie you didn't finish your intro line! "If you like the video... like the video! Enjoy the rest of the video!". You forgot to tell me to enjoy it and my vibe is off

[@kevin1153]

Me at the start of the video, ‘shoulda done snorlax as the carry over progon’ Me watching it solo rival fights. ‘Never mind’

[@eizenga71]

38:58 careful these have ended all of Drake's runs.

[@Rytex-nh7pm]

I thought wiglett would be good against minior but I stand corrected

[@shinyhitmonlee1058]

😂😂

[@BinhNguyen-kk3nd]

That’s probably the only time i’ll ever hear “our tackle’s too strong”

[@f1redr1ve]

42:20 I've been hunting for blood moon ursaluna for a while but you can get it in forest at night time

[@justinharding3544]

my king of underground youtube plays pokemon?! ive never loved skoottie more

[@slippythefrog]

Editing was much better on this one. Love these videos.

[@colsonrivers]

for a montotype run, this team seemed really strong, and there was probably still room to have a better normal only run. Great video!

[@Snowstorm174]

have you played gen 9 lol bc a lot of the mons that you’re like “who is this” are from gen 9, some of them (specifically the poison legendary trio) are from the DLC. but also you don’t recognize some of the more obscure mons so I really can’t say much, Minior may be gen 7 but it’s only shown up in one game after its debut and it was in DLC. i just like its shiny, it looks like bowling alley carpet and it’s funny

[@emamule23]

I would 've used meoth with technician ,that pk early game Is op

[@dannydanggang1675]

38:57 I have never seen Stratosphere but my god it's beautiful

[@petermcnamara5347]

Buneary is an amazing starter for stuff like this because it gets frustration to start off and is amazingly strong

[@synclair6131]

watching pokerogue videos to stave off insanity, its been more than 12 hours since the servers went down

[@bobjob2514]

I’m currently dominating a run with mega pidgeot. Also, fun fact: fusing two shinies adds their luck together. Red shiny (tier 3) plus normal shiny (tier 1) = luck 4.

[@nicholasfrantz]

Stoked youre playing more pokerogue

[@lykurato]

Hisuian Zoroark with Aura sphere is the way to go and surprisingly Stoutland can do a lot of damage, even if it's caught in the wild

[@javagogo4803]

I am for sure doing mono steel soon, it’s my favorite type and this game is so much fun

[@nekk3189]

Fr, Steel types go hard

[@OurLance]

I had four steel types on my team and lost to the ground elite four. Bad team build on my part but steel carries hard

[@SillySkull]

Best type in the game for a reason

[@mrg4melover]

5:37 What mon is it??? I looked it up and Daschbun is the only mon with Well-Baked Body. I can’t find any steel-fairy moms with it

[@kindplanet1]

I think a good type would be steel types. They resist Fairy, Dragon and immune to poison. Edit: Also ban Tinkaton and Zachian

[@Skoottie]

I think its probably safe to say ill be doing these without legendaries (unless random encounter) or mythics and whatnot

[@GodofGalaxys]

Just beat a ground mono run thanks for the inspiration on the challenge and congrats on your win

[@captainpolar2343]

technically, comparing the standard form of pidgeot to toucannon, toucannon has a higher bst and is more specialized for one offensive category. However, if we allow pidgeot to mega, it becomes stronger than toucannon, but also switches it's offensive category (going from 80/70 physical to 80/135 special)

[@ultimaterecoil1136]

Skill link mons are also insanely good because of how boss hp bars encourage multi hits and beak blast even has a bug to do infinite damage

[@gameaholic18]

Lol silk scarf + calciums + stab + adaptability your 150 power hyperbeam is like 480 base.

[@Grenadadwi]

1:19 shoot starly’s evo gets close combat

[@codystone93]

Zigzagoon is a very solid support mon.

[@Gus_NU1]

what is (N) in conversion? and (P) in uproar??

[@OgAxe1738]

N means it’s not implemented in the game yet and P means it’s partially implemented

[@Gus_NU1]

@@OgAxe1738 thanks

[@Anti_Villain]

Makes me so happy seeing people run challenges in this game. A nuzlocke hardcore mode coming out where you lose all your hatched eggs if any die would be cool.

[@3again1999]

Technician Meowth with fake out won me this one

[@Wiggliest]

Toucannon? Brother, thats just a normal Toucan.

[@genotheskeleton6258]

PORYGON SWEEEEEEP

[@LegitHarpyHunter]

I'm ending up in a normal only run now because kangaskhan keeps knocking out all the things I want to catch 😅

[@tor5882]

Please more pokerogue

[@azuwer4060]

Wow got in before bots. Knowing you, you’ll win the run but good luck

[@KiaTallon2]

I think the bots are running late

[@extoxic9536]

How u get so lucky with hurricanes, it alway a missed for me

[@Rykarie]

Mega has "no guard" ability meaning attacks can't miss

[@LilBakaBaka]

Is or will this game be available on mobile? I would play the crap out of this game if it was 😭

[@Minefriker]

You can play it on mobile just fine actually. It's on the same website so have fun

Yes but warning it won't be as smooth

Anyone else think the rival kinda *good looking tho*

[@Splintorious]

Pretty sure she’s like 10, like in every Pokémon game

[@RedstonekPL]

[@christopherangstadt926]

Do not the child

[@SillySkull]

@@Splintorious was this confirmed by devs? Ive never even seen anyone mention ages but it would make sense following the common Pokémon trend

[@Robin93k]

​@@SplintoriousRed and Blue are 11 in Red and Blue and the youngest playable characters over all generations. And while not all have confirmed ages, the majority is between 11 and 14. B2W2 had probably the oldest main game protagonists at 16 years old. And Wes from Pokémon Colosseum is 17. Based on this trend I think the PokéRogue protagonists should be older than Wes/at least 18 years old.

[@br34kout82]

facecam :)

[@ratchetthemedic169]

When you said normal is weak to Fighting it actually has two weaknesses and the other one is Phychic but hey can’t wait for this game to add more features like monotype and nicknames 👍

[@dickbupkis4375]

This has never been true

[@ZorinNephalemz]

Nope. Normal is only weak to Fighting. I think you are mixing up that Psychic beats Fighting

[@ratchetthemedic169]

@@ZorinNephalemz i thought normal looses to physic too but still trying to learn the type chart 👍
