Something just occurred to me... What if game freak implement a condition similar to after using hyper beam for electric attacks. Such as used thunder then next move it says they had drained energy must recover or something. Imagine how brutal 😆🤔. I'm sadistic aren't I. Just going by the logic that a power surge can short a circuit etc...why can't it temporarily short a Pokémon?

That would be nice, but that would give a beginning of the game bug, Ledyba base 80 attack. I think Ledian is how it is because it is a happy looking bug with no noticeable way to harm anything. There’s plenty of other Pokémon that are just awful for the same reason.

It look like they were trying to make it a specialer with it having good Sp. Def, decent Sp. Atk and above average speed but ultimately focused too much on giving it Sp. Def leaving it with little to work with. Which may explain why it gets to learns all those elemental tms. Though don’t know why they try to fix it even now since they even gave it special stabs to boot.

Just found your channel the other day and watched every episode. My notes are as follows: For Gen 2, onward I would use held items its a lot more strategic/entertaining than either relying on good luck or out leveling a problem. Relying on confusion luck isn't the most exciting to watch, similar to sleep you are just waiting for luck to line up. I'd like to see you level up for a more consistent strategy. I really enjoyed you choice of pokemon so far. Using hard to get/late game pokemon like lickitung or tentacruel is really interesting because you rarely use them in a normal playthrough because there are easier options. If you want a weird challenge lickitung and/or krabby with no hm slaves is an interesting one. Looking forward to more.

I personally prefer using Swift over Comet Punch when you get it in Union Cave. A surprising amount of people forget about Swift. I've used a Ledian on several playthroughs of the game and it's honestly a lot of fun to use. Return, Thunder Punch, Ice Punch, and Dig makes it so that Ledian can solo the majority of the game even when it's on par with the other Pokémon's levels. I know you and other pokeTubers try to make the challenge as difficult on yourselves as possible, but Ledian honestly is a good Pokémon when you're not tying your hands behind your back. Also, giving it NeverMeltIce or the Magnet are extra useful here.

Scott, I just thought about this and wanted to share it with you: I did summer gym class between 9th and 10th grade with a guy whose favorite Pokémon were Ledyba and Ledian. Really goes to show that for every Pokémon, someone has them as their favorite. That kid was cool. I think he got Pokérus and gave it to all of our little friend group while we were all playing Black and White. It's just a fond childhood memory of mine. I love when you share childhood memories of Pokémon, so I thought I'd share my own! Love the content as always.

14:42 Although I don't mind friendly rivals too much, I gotta agree with you there. XY were the worst offenders. Serena/Calem should've been made the jerk. Think about it in their perspective. They're the child of two great Pokemon trainers, are said to have inherited their parents' skills, and their friends view them as the leader. That should give them a bit of an ego. While Serena/Calem initially welcomes you into the group - maybe even viewing your first victory against them as nothing more than "beginner's luck" - once you defeat them to obtain the Mega Ring, that's when they start to hate you. After all, you started out as the new guy, and now you've managed to replace them as not only the best trainer, but also the leader. Who wouldn't feel a bit peeved at that? That's my general idea on how I would've done it, anyway.

The sad fact of the matter is that I think Ledian has one of the most adorable and appealing designs in the series, along with Ledyba. It's a shame that they can be knocked out with a stiff breeze in most scenarios. To quote Smogon: "Oh Ledian, you're as cute as a button, and about as strong as one, too." Though taking out Clair with a Ledian is immensely satisfying, I bet.

Not sure if an earlier comment stated it, but the Black Belt Nob who slid you earlier with rock slide is actually an ode to the original translator for the Pokemon games, Nob Ogasawara. They basically put him in every Pokemon game as a trainer no matter what, despite only using him for translations up until platinum. I know his name would get clowned in English, but in Japanese it's just a name. 🤷🏿‍♂️

I don't know what was wrong with me, but I didn't see him telling me his name as "???" but as "...", but he didn't tell me in the next box. Then when I got to enter his name, I cunningly realized that the writers forgot to put his name in specifically so I could choose it.

I’m guessing Game Freak designed Ledian with Baton Pass in mind. Only a few lines of Pokemon in Gold/Silver learned the move naturally and of those that did have it, many of them also had Reflect and Light Screen (Mr Mime) and/or Agility (Aipom, Ariados). It’s kind of a shame that Scyther and Scizor, which are actually decent, also have the Baton Pass and Agility combo via breeding. And that Eevee got Baton Pass in Crystal. Those guys had no business having both Baton Pass AND good stats!

14:50 I think part of the reason people remember Gary "Dicks" Oak and the rival from gen2 so much more fondly than the others is because they're actually jerks. Think about it. In the pokemon games, people are pretty dang nice! Ignoring the plots that sometimes bizarrely involve freaking _genocide,_ your average person in the pokemon world seems like a really nice, kind soul. They happily give away items to random kids they meet to help them on their pokemon adventures, or offer to craft specialty items for them free of charge like Kurt. In a world filled primarily with such people, being just a plain old arrogant jerk stands out! It's memorable. Even if later generation rivals had good writing (and let's be real... they don't. They're all pretty dang bland) they still wouldn't be as fondly remembered and memed as the first two, because they just don't stand out from the overall tone of the games.

Ledyba, along with hoot hoot and murkrow, is one of the gen 2 pokemon that I really loved their designs, but ended being useless in combat, and never received a good evlution. Once, I even designed myself a fanart evo for ledyba, that was bug - electric, and had light bulbs on his back, on the place his dots were supossed to be, and was a really cool concept, that even others appreciated. He was fat like snorlax, big, round, had a funny but annoyed face, and little lights on his antennae, along with 4 cool insect arms with 3 fingers on each. Why if fans can create these things, GF can't put any effort in making its evolutions. So many gen 2 pokemon that coud have cool evolutions back then... Sneasel, misdrevous, stantler, mantine, dunsparce, yanma... It was the generation of wasted potential. So many good beta pokemon thrown away too.

Everyone hates Ledian because it is weak and doesn't have a diverse moveset but for me I love the way it looks I mean a boxing ladybug is cool and it doesn't look like they haphazardly glued random things together to get a boxing ladybug it is very aestheticly pleasing to me. Seeing this is why I subscribed to your channel YEAH! One of my favorite 3 Pokemon of gen 2 the others being Celibi and Espeon. Also Ledian is my favorite bug Pokemon overall 2nd being Volcorona 3rd Butterfree Beautifly and Vivilion (they would be 2nd but there are too many look alikes making it less fun).

I couldn't do this myself. I have used Ledian many times for sure but always as a support Pokémon. Screens, Agility and Baton Pass primarily. Also (during the rival fight in Victory Road) it is NOT a punching firefly. It's a punching ladybug.

I appreciate that in legends Arceus they have gyrados high in the air to empathize that ya, it flies. In spite of not being a dragon type it's clearly based on Chinese dragons that fly without wings since it's based on a legend of carps jumping over the dragon's gate and becoming a dragon.

I named my rival Douche in Gen 2. Not as an insult, but because it looked like a good description.

I used to give my rival very girly names. I was a bit immature and found that really funny for some reason. Silver was “Stacy” and Blue was “Bethany”, for example 🙃

Amazing how you had to use a weak Bug/Flying type Pokemon for Bruno to finally be hard lol. And surprisingly enough, this run seems to have been easier than the Steelix one, those elemental punches sure were handy XD

That’s odd that it is bug and flying type I always thought it was bug and fighting since it have four fist to punch and can learn all the elements punches like Hitmonchan.

Not going to lie, when I first played through Gen 2 I liked the way Ledyba and Ledian looked, but that's about it. Your run did show me that Ledian is more versatile than I originally thought. I might try to do a playthrough again using unconventional mons.
