As soon as I saw this was on a Japanese game I knew we were in for a fun lock. I love that Pikasprey says “the elevated bridge tiles interact with Surf in a weird way” as if this is something that happens all the time.

[@Betsy7Cat]

It makes me wonder, if you were to somehow surf there in a version of the game without the acro surf glitch, if the bridge tiles would still interact the same way. Like obviously they fixed the way you could surf, but they probably didn’t do anything about the bridge tiles interacting with surf should you manage to do it another way.

[@LiliGasanj]

@@Betsy7Cat I'm not a super expert ROM hacker, but I wouldn't say I'm a novice either. if it works the way I think it does, the bridge tiles would still interact with surfing on them in this way even in the international versions, if you found a non-bike way to surf on that bridge tile all surfable water tiles are assigned "Layer 0", but the glitch with the bike seems to shift the player's direction in a way that makes them view "Layer 1" whilst triggering the surf command, which seems to make them surf on Layer 1 instead of 0. Looking at the map of Fortree in an editor, I'm noticing the ladder up to the bridge in question has the "Layer cross" layer which allows you to go between layers without issue, with the bridge itself being on Layer 2. i'm assuming whats happening is that the player decides to stop surfing the moment you go from one layer to another, which normally should always be "from Layer 0 to a different one", but in this instance, you would be unmounting via crossing from Layer 2 to Layer 1, which leads me to believe if you did manage to surf on the bridge in the international versions, it would still unmount the surf this way

[@ShogunMS]

At this point I'm convinced that Pikasprey will somehow find a glitch that stops you from leaving the back of the moving truck at the beginning of the game, or leaving your home in other gens.

[@overlordalfredo]

In an EU version of Crystal I actually managed to do that once. I was using some item menu cheats while I was back in my room. Somehow I glitched the stairs so I could not go back down. So I was literally trapped in my room not able to go out again 😂

[@lykillcorreli6740]

I mean. Gen 1 save corruption strats for item underflow could technically accomplish that? But that's basically a step removed from Arbitrary Code Execution, and outright rewriting the game's code to make it impossible to leave kinda sucks the fun out of the idea.

[@chaosvolt]

The only thing that would make this better would be if you beat this softlock...and then the pokemon center you're set to return to is the one in Pacifilog Town. Granted, you'd have Surf so it wouldn't screw you over, but it would still be an added layer of massive inconvenience.

[@Meteorite_Shower]

Now I want to see a softlock where escaping it puts you into _another_ softlock.

[@DeisFortuna]

I don't think you can get to pacifilog without either A. More glitches or B. Getting the Devon Scope.

[@chaosvolt]

@@DeisFortuna Ah yeah that too, not sure if there's a way. Plus like I realized, needing surf to set this trap up negates what makes pacifilog a threat anyway so it would be at best a final bit of amusement at a beleaguered player's expense even if it's possible to make happen.

[@jbz4788]

If there were some way to bypass getting the Devon scope it could be doable to trap someone in Sootopolis. Swap the Gyrados for something that can surf but not dive (Linoone for example). Get to Sootopolis as normal, then head back to Fortree via Slateport (tossing the dive user into the daycare on the way) And Bob’s your uncle escaping into a different soft lock. I just don’t know if bypassing the Devon scope is possible

[@dr.trousers6101]

Even just locking you in the first area after Mr briney leaves, and not destroying the rock smash rock. Throw away surf and rock smash and be sent home. Pretty awful. Blood would be stuck at the start

[@badger273]

Silver lining: Asprey didn't point it out but showed it at 11:15, but if your last Gyarados is paralyzed and the Altaria is +6 speed (which it should be since it's Struggling) then Altaria will outspeed it, meaning you don't have to rely on RNG to win--er, lose

[@Pixtrix_]

it doesnt even need to be +6 speed the showdown damage calc says lvl 33 altaria with a neutral nature, 0 speed iv and no speed boosts is 57 speed, where a lvl100 paralyzed gyarados with perfect speed iv is 49 speed so you just gotta make sure your last gyarados is paralyzed and you "win" (not that it really matters since like you said itll be struggling at this point but still a neat thing i thought id point out)

[@hillwin10]

exactly

[@hillwin10]

I'm so frustrated more people in the comments don't realize this -- if you watch it, Altaria attacks first -- he needs to acknowledge this lol.,,,

[@ascriptmaster]

@@Pixtrix_ not if the Gyaradoses are EV trained first and given beneficial natures. You'll notice each Gyarados has 394 HP, which will only happen if it has 252 HP EVs and why it's extra important for Endeavor to land. If you give Gyarados 52 speed EVs and a speed-boosting nature (or 138 without a speed-boosting nature) it will have 58 speed while paralyzed. But of course, Altaria has Dragon Dance and will be at +6 anyways and have 228 speed, so you can put 44 (speed-boosted)/128 (not speed-boosted) EVs for Gyarados to hit the benchmark 229 speed needed for it to outspeed if you're somehow unlucky enough for it to not get paralyzed after all 20 Dragon Breaths.

[@Antifrost]

Part of the fun of these videos for me is trying to figure out which step of the preparation phase is going to cause the most pain in trying to escape a potential softlock, but I was thrown for a loop since this uses a glitch I didn't know about. Thankfully, I've seen enough of these to know that A) having a team of level 100 Pokemon with only attacking moves means that there's a battle we probably need to lose, B) having Intimidate means switching Pokemon in and out will take even longer, and C) having shiny Pokemon will disincentivize starting a new save (it also adds an extra animation while switching). Also, with how specific of a glitch this used, I'm kinda surprised that it was caught in time to patch it out of other versions of the game.

[@MattDustyParker]

This is diabolical. Absolutely devious. A most heinous endeavor. Glad to be a long term subscriber!

[@GuanlongX]

Whenever I see one of these videos, I always wonder what a speedrun of this would look like. I know you give us the estimated times for the pseudo-softlocks, but I honestly think it'd be very funny if someone actually tried to do this at some point as a sort of meme speedrun.

This series continues to get better with time. This is such a cool tidbit, the fact that you can use the acro bike to surf on land, and it's used for such a dastardly setup. It's perfect.

[@scarletpathcat]

I think this one is my favorite. Just short enough people might actually be willing to do the hard work. Active enough that you can't mindless your way through. And puts the only real chance in the run to the very last turn.

[@Iinneus]

I LOVE the commitment to "give them all Leftovers". It's the most pointless thing, "we can just remove the leftovers before we try anything", but it's the _principle_ of it! If anything, we could lean even more on the idea that most people _aren't_ going to go through all the setup and just start the battle, only realizing "oh, shit, i need to change my settings" and then "oh this is NOT doable if i have leftovers, wait, i need to take those off", which really adds that little bit extra. It's the seasoning to our absurd dish here that really does it for me. 👌

[@gimok2k5]

Oh, no. Think about it: Leftovers HEAL. Which means that if we don't remove them, it's possible we can't lose at all. So it's not pointless that it's leftovers.

[@Juli_is_Online]

I love that moment in all your soft lock videos of trying to figure out what the trap is this time around and having that moment of slowly dawning horror everytime realizing just how devious this trap is, only for it to then turn out even more horrific then I originally thought. Like here when I realized you'd be trapped in an un-losable battle, only for the switching and later disobedience mechanic to come in and make everything even worse. Brilliant

[@maysintv9168]

Gawd I love these Soft Lockpicking vids. Honestly, the insane situations people manage to find and put you in, AND the fact you actually test the soft locks out..... just, that's commitment mate. *claps* I couldn't do it, that's for sure.

[@lelouchvibritannia1818]

Good video, but couple things I believe you got wrong: You can absolutely guarantee that 5 Gyarados get endeavored (?), you just have to switch between two Gyarados, and the moment one of them gets hit with endeavor, you stop sending that one in against the swellow and just switch between the other and a new one, and so on until you get bit with endeavor 5 times Also, by the time your final gyarados has to attack vs altaria, you'd probably be paralyzed and it'll be at +6 speed, so it's definitely faster than you, it will just struggle and kill you, no rng involved

[@StayAwayFromMyCat]

Yeah I was confused by the endeavor part too. I looked it up and apparently Endeavor has 100% accuracy so I'm left wondering why he's explaining it as if getting hit 3 times by it is some rare occurrence you need to pray for.
