The Lost Minigames of Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen

[@droomish1]

Drew Drew Orange. Thoughts?

[@Hydrocannon]

Duck Duck Go?

[@manueljaramillo2520]

I prefer Mish Mish Apple.

[@buttertandoorichicken]

What kind of orange did Drew Draw? Navel, Blood, Valencia, Jaffa?

[@shefvomdienst7635]

I want a video of your anime style character in frlg kanto... Its not cringe. Its totally normal. Every wwe fan has its wwe persona. Every dbz fan has they favorite move.

[@piranhalettuce]

Drew drew a orange?

[@Rafael_Oiticica]

That's the kind of video that should have 1 mi views. A very direct and straight-forward video showing something that is hard to capture on camera and there is so much online about this... Both captured on cam and information. I loved it! :D

[@zen7even]

Give it a year and it’ll be at 1mil

[@DivisibleByWaffle]

This video literally prompted me to buy 3 more wireless adapters. Once I finish repairing 2 more Game Boy Advances, I'm having friends over for Four Swords Adventures and Berry Crush.

[@MegaKBang]

Pokemon Jump was such a worldwide hit that Gamefreak decided to give it a sequel called Magikarp Jump. Truly a revolutionising experience!

[@valritz1489]

I had the wireless adapter as a kid The trouble being, nobody else did

[@Hydrocannon]

Whereas I have two sets of GBA's and Wireless adapters, needing a third for Dodrio Berry Picking... Seriously all I have is a LeafGreen cart and most I can get is 3 stars / Silver Trainer Card. It sucks.

[@MultiJudgmentdragon]

@@Hydrocannon I was stuck in this area for 10 years but I bided my time and an opportunity presented itself, a friend in the US was collecting and completing the games and I won him some auctions for gen 3 games and GBA sp which are cheaper in UK than over there and since I already had my sets of 2 i finally had 3 of everything in one place so i got 2 colleagues from work to help me and we got it done eventually and I finally have my 4th star after all this time, patience pays off heh :)

[@Hydrocannon]

@@MultiJudgmentdragon Mighty jelaous of you... Meanwhile I don't even have reflexes to get past 100 jumps let alone 200...

[@MultiJudgmentdragon]

@@Hydrocannon You can do it just takes patience and careful observation of what number the speeds change, also best mons to use are either 2 kirlia or 2 kakuna, kakuna can actually doble jump so it can avoid a fall now and then

[@NightSky_]

Huge props for this very excellent video! & being able to capture as well. I’m so happy interest in niche things like this still exists. I wasn’t aware Dodrio Berry Picking was a 3 player game, guess I’ll have to get a 3rd GBA & Adapter lol

[@scraps7624]

I had not even considered what happened inside the game house, nice to see such good footage

[@thisismyaltaccount4195]

Steller video! LOVE videos like these deep diving lesser known bits of Gen 3 content. (The best gen) Little things from the shiny dodrio, to even formatting quirks like the shroomish banner and sound effects from pinball rs, I LOVED every part of this! I'd love to see more content like this from you. Keep up the great work!

[@Dewy3739]

Fire content bro. I’ve consumed hours upon hours of gen 3 Pokémon content and have never seen this covered

[@tibbyy]

Wow I didn't know about these minigames! You should look into the Pokemon Platinum Wi-Fi Plaza! I loved those mini games so much and I would beg my friends to play them all the time :P I don't see a lot of people talking about it Fun video, great work!

[@chimpyvision47]

awesome video, ive wanted to know more about these minigames for ages!! Im a huge gen 3 fan and fire red was my first pokemon game so it has a special place in my heart. I actually own Fire Red, Leaf Green, two wireless adapters, a gamecube, a gameboy player (and disk), a GBA, and a GBA SP so im set up to play these, i just need a friend LOL. unfrotunately i also need one more game copy and one mroe wireless adapter for the berry catch minigame :/

[@NintendoAsian]

If Droomish has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Droomish has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Droomish has only one fan then that is me. If Droomish has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Droomish, then I am against the world. Finally is also what I said when Droomish uploaded this BANGER!

[@stoshhatch8988]

Haha I played these games when I was younger! I TOTALLY forgot about them until this video. Thanks for reigniting a forgotten childhood memory

[@SirToastyToes]

Fun fact most Pokemon that can fly are barred from playing Pokemon Jump with one exception: Porygon2 Porygon2 also by being smaller than Porygon is able to play but their pre-evolved form can't

[@BeIlG]

I had no idea. Super fun to see! keep it up!

[@Ospyro3em]

Thank you! As far as I can see, no-one else has gone into detail explaining these mini games, and I never got to try them for myself.

[@ThunderKnightSilver2]

Huh, these almost give me some Wi-fi plaza minigame vibes from Platinum and Heartgold/Soulsilver. Someone should do a video about that!

[@DarkCobra88]

I actually loved Pokemon jump, me and my brother used to play it together and just laugh at how goofy some pokemon looked when jumping, like Shuckle and Slugma. good times. The games was simple but simple sometimes is best.

[@bathestyles6525]

Something to note about the group of 5 thing: Japan is muuuch more dense than America, so I’d imagine Japanese kids had a way easier time gathering a group of 5 than American kids

[@porphyriticnegative7284]

Neat! I recently got into collecting gba games and currently have all the gen 3 mainline stuff except emerald, and once I complete firered I'll be taking on the jump minigame. Looks like I'll have to get another copy for the dodrio game though, didn't realize it required 3.

[@weenierotini]

i feel so informed after watching this excellent video, i will surely subscribe

[@slowpoke8443]

hey I love the gen 3 content. I'm a gen 1er but gen 3 is actually peak pokemon for me. love all the content buddy, keep it up please!!

[@UnTmD91]

Here in Europe (Belgium) the Wireless Adapter came with the game 🙏 so me, my brother and a friend in our neighborhood all had the adapter and used it for trading Pokémon and playing the games ☺️

[@entothechesnautknight1762]

The amount of things that have only been documented recently about the gen 3 games, despite them being *so old* is just wild. So much time and care and attention, put into a part of the game its genuinely possible less people experienced as-intended then have watched this video.

[@sneepsnoop9547]

FireRed was my first Pokemon game way back when I was just 7 years old, but I never had anyone to play with, so these minigames have always just sort of lurked in the back of my mind. I knew they existed, and they had this sort of tantalizing mystique to them, but they were never that well documented and no one really seemed to care about them. Very gratifying to see a full breakdown of them!

[@andreibenedictmendiola1553]

that art of clefairy pikachu and meowth jumping is too cute

[@electrocast]

this sounds fun, and i have the friends with the materials for it, so maybe i'll give it a try sometime.

[@nanitajou]

The the jump minigame would be a esport some day

[@Hydrocannon]

Colosseum's Virtual E-Reader trainer room endless battle mode would become an e-sport before this does.

[@maxor2277]

Thanks for this! I now know I just need a 3rd wireless adapter to play these (I have Fire, Leaf, and Emerald plus 2 adapters)!

[@MultiJudgmentdragon]

You have 3 GBA to? if you get some people to help with this give me a shout I have some great tips for doing these

[@maxor2277]

@@MultiJudgmentdragon I'd have to double check. I have a GameBoy advance, SP, and the GameCube dock thingy at least

[@Hydrocannon]

I hope to do this myself one day. All I have left from my brother getting my games stolen is a measly LeafGreen, a fake non-saving Ruby and a Colosseum. I hope to complete it someday...

[@astral_nemesis]

Jw do you think non saving makes it inherently fake? I only ask bc I got a copy of gold that didn’t save a long time ago and I just figured it was glitched or broken not fake

[@Hydrocannon]

@@astral_nemesis To my knowledge, Red Blue Yellow (Green) and Gold Silver & Crystal games require a functioning battery for save function. So no battery = no save. This was changed in Gen3 with advancing technology. In RSE (not FRLG) the battery is only required for keeping track of the in game clock for the purposes of Day/Night cycle, berry growing, daily events etc. Saving your game is completely removed from battery requirement.

[@astral_nemesis]

@@Hydrocannon gotcha so it’s possible my copy of gold just had a bad battery?

[@Hydrocannon]

@@astral_nemesis Either that, or as an universal problem with fake carts, the cheap parts used in their construction degrade and die so fast due to something about power that runs through the cart not being regulated correctly (or something like that I'm not sure), making the cheap contacts burn out etc. You should look it up. If you can, I suggest opening your cart up and seeing yourself if you can risk it. In such event, if you see a big black blob in on the board, it should be a dead giveaway to the cart being fake. Another big indicator is the wrong colored casing (if it's black, regular gray etc) or the sticker on the front having wrong type font/misplaced logos etc. A good place to learn about these things is the "gameverifying" subreddit.

[@astral_nemesis]

@@Hydrocannon oh I returned these to GameStop a longgg time ago they were also used when I got them back then so

[@MemeinAndDreamin]

Droomish bro can you make a video about the HGSS events AKA the best events and distributions ever in the history of Pokémon? Maybe the PokeWalker too.

[@droomish1]

Yes and yes! both of these ideas have been on my list, I've been playing around with how I would shoot a pokewalker video and it not look like garbage 😅 can hopefully share those thoughts soon

[@MemeinAndDreamin]

@@droomish1 i love you droomish please give the shiny dogs the respect they deserve

[@stev1c1]

such a fire video, I love that you did a deep dive of a such a cool old game, arguably the best pokemon game, really mind-blowing how there are still things we don't know about the games hidden in the codes and what not :)

@@droomish1 I'm delighted to find out you are a fellow nekroz enjoyer :)

[@spamtong.spamton8416]

I wish it was possible to play these minigames by yourself. It is apparently possible to make that a thing and there is unused code for playing Dodrio Berry Picking by yourself or with one other person, but I haven't had any luck getting the games to work solo with the decomps.

[@MultiJudgmentdragon]

Main Qualms I have with FR LG and gen 5 is they are to wireless multiplayer dependent, its why I find emerald and gen 4 way more cool and efficient in those areas

[@TaleOfTheToaster]

What a hero

[@icecreamget]

Fuck I caught a shiny doduo on my FireRed game as a kid, but of course I was a loner and I never had a chance at playing it

[@alexandercolefield9523]

I remember getting a wireless adapter with my sister to play this not knowing what it was and had immsurable disappointment upon jumping rope

[@braedenwinstead1984]

Very cool video, droomish 👍

[@skeveharvey]

hello sports fans = immediate hearty belly laugh tyvm

[@timr.2257]

Knew about these games but never knew you had to provide your own Pokémon for the games. And you could just put a camera up to a screen to record footage like old Pokémon KZbin days :P

[@MasterArchfiend]

Pokémon Jump: Still more tolerable to me than jumping rope in Final Fantasy IX.

[@PrincessGamecube]

Its time for the 7th annual Boys dip

[@Poliwager]

My friends and I had wireless adapters when we were younger (I think we all still do!) but we never did these mini games for some reason. I wish we had! Looks fun (and frustrating haha). Any reason you didn't go into the Berry Crush game too?

[@pabloschmidt3704]

I had always wanted to play these games but never had a friend with a link cable or adapter to play it

I’m not a sports fan But I am a Droomish fan

[@MrShadowThief]

Oh it's Drewmish

[@shiny9690]

Does Pokemon Jump also show your selected mons as shiny?

[@droomish1]

my understanding is that they don't shine, as just the battle sprites are shown unlike the unique dodrio ones

[@shikabaneconga]

is that the reason why munching orange picked his name?

[@donlyphans7801]

Does it have to be wireless? Wouldnt a regular link cable work for the jump rope game? And my link cord has an outlet spot for another link cord to plug in to allow 3 players, so I wonder if dodrio berry would work like that

yes and I have no real reason for this, I think they just wanted you to buy the new toy
