Top 10 Pokemon Key Items

[@ChoiceSnarf]

I had a hard life growing up. My mother only gave me a small loan of a million dollars. All I could do with that was get a bike.

[@BigM5304]

Lol

[@5bel0w69]

+Choice Snarf and then ash trashed your bike so you stalked him for the next 2 generations XD

[@catth3rat]

+Choice Snarf It must of been so hard for you xD

[@JaelinBezel]

You must be from post world war 1 germany

[@ajanis95]

+Choice Snarf Haha

[@truegreen7]

The best Key Item is definitely without a doubt the 'Rm.4 Key'...

[@BussiDestroyer]

+Truegreen7 XD why?

[@superslimegaming74]

+Truegreen7 yessss

[@HotPotato3264]

I get it am i the only one who really likes the abandoned ship dungeon?

[@TridKP]

I prefer the Storage Key

[@atommidas2002]

What about your house keys

[@legoferrari14]

*THE EXPLORER KIT IN DIAMOND, PEARL AND PLATINUM.* That thing was amazing! It gave you access to some _really_ cool rare items, often before you can find them in the overworld!

[@guguy00]

And the worst key item, THE EXPLORER KIT IN BRILLIANT DIAMOND AND SHINING PEARL. Which takes everything you like about the underground and buries it.

[@TomFawkes]

9:38 Remember in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance where you could assign bonus EXP to your units outside of combat?

[@BigKlingy]

Remember how you could totally break the game by dumping it all on Marcia? (Or, in Radiant Dawn, Haar)

[@alexgibson781]

+Tom Fawkes That's a thing?! +BigKlingy If that's the case, then I'm surprised I don't know who they are.

[@BigKlingy]

Bonus Exp was a really cool mechanic that sadly only appeared in two Fire Emblem games. You'd basically get BEXP as a reward for doing well in chapters, and sometimes for achieving optional objectives like freeing NPCs from prison cells, saving a certain number of villages or NOT killing certain enemies (like ones who are being forced to fight you against their will). You could use it betwen chapters to level people, though 1 BEXP wasn't always world 1 "real" exp. (e.g. at high levels, you needed more like 1000 BEXP per level up instead of 100) Like I said though, it could break the game really badly, like if you dumped it all one one character or save-reset abused until you got good lv ups. Radiant Dawn tried to fix that by making it so you couldn't get more than 3 stat-ups for a BEXP level... but that only made it even better, because you would ALWAYS get exactly 3 stats. Say you had a General who had capped HP, Strength, Skill and Defence. If you used BEXP on them, they'd gain huge amounts of Speed, because Mag, Speed, Luck and Res are their only non-capped stats and the game has to raise 3 of them.

[@donaldjames2104]

+Tom Fawkes I miss that feature.

[@siddyfisher1765]

Do you think that would make the current games too easy?

[@heyiwannaseeificangetaloto761]

I'm pretty sure that I have at some point.

[@DolusVulpes]

I personally prefer the newer EXP Share, if only because it let's me reliably grind up six pokemon at once instead of just two. It makes it a lot easier to try new combinations of pokemon.

[@jhonkoe2069]

Memento Mori Exactly. Plus, it levels the Pokemon you never send out at first (Such as Goomy)

[@PichuBro8]

I will always use fly. Always. Two reasons: 1. I can't remember what town anything is in, so I gotta look at my map, and sense fly can take me to the town from my map, it's just faster. 2. There's something hilarious about battling someone, then just flying away. Especially when talking to them face to face, with a fast flying type.

[@LilBruno63]

I personally liked the gen 5 dowsing machine. the only generation I actually used it.

[@LilBruno63]

[@gregory7320]

In Pokemon yellow you eventually get the exp share but that's like almost at the end of the game and even with it on it sucks it's better to turn it off

[@GDKsan]

"you can carry thousands of dollars but need a box to put coins in it". Yeah let me introduce to a technological revolution called a credit card, but as revolutionnary as it is it still can't hold physical coins.

[@BJ-no2oe]

Yeah, you can carry items ranging from evolution stones, mega stones poke balls, etc in full stacks, as well as fishing rods, a bike, and other key items within your bag, but you can't fit in a few measly coins.

[@cowfish13]

Experience Share in X&Y was wonderful, as it encouraged the idea of having an interchangeable party of around 10+ Pokemon. Many people go with the party of 6, with 2 or 3 bench Pokemon for specific situations, and that's boring! I'm usually have about 18 active Pokemon when I play.

[@MineNick11]

+cowfish13 I feel like the old experience share was better, you could still have a pokemon piggyback experience, but it actually made you think about keeping your main pokemon at the same level

[@osmosiswright9924]

+cowfish13 Same here. Having only 6 Pokemon is never good enough for me. How the EXP Share works now is very effecient for my large teams.

[@MrMarinus18]

I would agree but my issue is that the Exp. Share grants a net increase in the amount of experience points gained. A much better system would be if the victorious pokémon would gain half the experience points and the other half is distributed among the rest.

[@supervegito2277]

9:18 A lot of other RPGs give the entire party the same amount of experience. If its too easy, just scale HOW MUCH exp is given back a little, divide it up further like FF4.

[@Sonicstriforce]

Hey JWittz! I remember that you talked about how it would be cool if you could pick what your profession could be in Pokemon (breeder, professor, contests) and it reminded me of a Pokemon fangame i am currently playing. It's called Pokemon Godra and you can actually pick certain career paths (army, Pokemon safari manager, professor, etc.) It would be cool if you talked about it in a video (maybe clumped with other Pokemon fan games that are cool) and if anyone else is reading this, you should go play it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I am!

[@nuggerchonk4240]

Mhhmm

[@TheInfinityMaster1]

Well, aside from the obvious Mega Bracelet (which changed Pokémon forever in a good way), my favorite item is definitely the *VS SEEKER*! I mean, before Pokémon online battles improved and before I became I competitive player, the one thing that I always wished for is to being able to REBATTLE trainers once again in the post game to prolong the game as much as possible and the VS Seeker was definitely the best thing to ever happen in the old days. Though, aside from HS/SS, there isn't a clear way to re-battle Gym Leaders, so I hope they fix that in future games as well. :)

[@crashthebandicrash3357]

[@pulseofme4949]

+Michael Sims Yeah, in Pokémon Yellow

[@ndm13]

I was hoping someone would mention this. For all his complaining about things Generation 1 got wrong, it's odd he didn't mention that his second favorite key item was created there!

[@startheangel9760]

The bike is best especially in gen 4 when walking was so slow.

[@byronlyons3548]

Interestingly enough, I believe I was also hearing the Bike music from gen 4 playing in this videos background throughout the whole time (until sample GB music from HG/SS).

[@icarusty6481]

Actually +TheJwittz , are you planning to do a Fire Emblem Fates video anytime soon? Because I would watch that so fast.

[@MagnakayViolet]

The Bicycle segment was like listening to a commercial and I had to play it again and again and again. "The Bicycle. Gotta... Go... FAST! Bunny hops! One Million Dollars!" ~Priceless~

[@korohacker]

The new EXP share is a godsend! I like grindy JRPGs to a certain extent, but having to babysit all the lower level characters and Pokemon for hours can be frustrating and made me stop playing the older games after a while. Now, I have several level 100 Pokemon that I'm proud of raising, even with the cheat

[@fireassassin123]

korohacker I honestly just used it to keep everyone at the same level during the main game... for Lv. 100s I just used ORAS Blissey Bases. If set up properly, even a Pokémon with the lowest EXP growth rate can go from 1 to 100 in 2-3 days

[@tayonic5499]

Who’s here after diamond and pearl remakes came out?

[@Assassin0Nation]

9:39 Except Mozu is a lot easier to level up compared to Donnel since the new Pair Up system can allow for guaranteed follow ups from fellow units. Wait, was this a Pokémon video?

[@reddragon8167]

+Kellam _Holy shit, your profile picture left me in stitches!_

[@gregernst1622]

Wait a sec. Waterfall is a pretty decent HM move in battle.

[@okapi_q]

Strength is pretty alright too

[@caustra2726]

It's a alternative to surf.

[@fireassassin123]

I enjoy Waterfall because it's a good alternative to Aqua Tail on Azumaril and physical Wishiwashi. You're sacrificing 10 base attack (80 is still good) for guarenteed 100 accuracy, as apposed to 90/90

[@jemanvilla9867]

Which is weird because every other famous PKMN channel has done it.

[@sukdufai4368]

Will you make a video on fire emblem fates Josh? That Mozu reference was top notch.

[@BigKlingy]

Trust me, training Mozu is nowhere NEAR as bad as many Magikarp Power characters in earlier FE games, who usually join extremely late in the game. The original one, Est, joined in Chapter 18 of 25, as a Lv 5 Pegasus Knight. Nearly all enemies are promoted by then. And that's not even getting into FE6 Sophia... Speed and Defence so terrible she dies to everything in her joining map. Which, by the way, is a Desert chapter... with Fog of War. And Wyvern Lords everywhere. AND Wyvern reinforcements. I tried to train her once and ragequitted out of it. With the right setup, it's possible to get Mozu to at least Lv 6 on her join map. (On Nohr, Effie's Pair Up bonuses are your friend)

[@BigKlingy]

SpninOutoCtrl Ross can get speed-screwed kind of easily though, as his speed growth is a pretty-shakey 35%. Other than that he's good. Funnily enough I always liked using Est in FE3, as her growths were so crazy (basically 70% everything) she'd cap everything every time. In the remakes she's WAY less useful since everyone else's growths were buffed and hers were nerfed. Sophia though... ugh. With her it's even worse, because the end result isn't even all that worth it: she ends up almst identical to Lilina, who joined way earlier, and even she has issues.

[@sukdufai4368]

I'm playing through Revelation right now, and through some witchcraft I've made Mozu actually useable. Now she's running around with Killer Lances destroying all in her path. Good for her.

[@TheCuddleCactus]

Hey JWittz, there is a fanmade tabletop game called Pokemon Tabletop United (There is also Pokemon Tabletop Adventures I think) and it has glasses based on those various things like research and cooking and breeding and stuff! It is really cool, and lots of fun c:

[@alejandroarriaga_]

Love the way you said "grinding" to share the experience points. It seriously bugged me tremendously to have to switch my Pokemon constantly for some leveling up. The only HM I truly admire is Fly. I always manage to transfer a Charmander to my newer gen games and teach it Fly as it evolves into Charizard. The only move I see no harm in letting it know

[@shadowthephoenix1]

personally i love the new EXP share, i mean in Xenoblade EXP is shared between all characters and that games not easy, and it does not make it easy, it just makes it less of a pain in the ass

[@bobbysmith8095]

+shadowthephoenix1 Agree, it just make the game less annoying not easier. It is only easier if you abuse it like any item. Buy 100 hyper potion and the game is also easier.

[@MrMarinus18]

If the game lowered the exp gained from battles to match I would agree but XY doesn't do that. The strategy was never present in the main series a lot, the challenge came from having to train your pokémon. The Exp. Share takes that away.

[@OmegaX5000]

I agree with you on the EXP Share. Yesterday I spent most of the afternoon leveling up my team in Yellow and I had to level everyone up individually and that takes so long that it just got tedious after a while. I really do have a greater appreciation for the XY/ORAS EXP Share than I did before because it would've made that tedious task be a walk in the park in a quarter of the time it took me to get everyone from level 41 to level 45. (and I refuse to use my limited Rare Candies until I reach the Pokémon League!)

[@GippyHappy]

I also love exp share. It makes switching Pokémon halfway through the game fun and exciting rather than annoying. In the older games I never felt like I could go without my starter because it was so strong, now I can use whatever I want with hardly any grinding. And if you don’t like it, you can turn it off.

[@rjfrancis765]

major keys to success

[@MrLucky5001]

For all of you complaing that the Gen 6, do you know how Experrience Share was called in Gen 1? It was called *Exp.All* guess what it did? Yes, it gave exp to *all* of the pokemon in your party.

[@seabit253]

True. But it wasn't nearly as broken. It very thinly disperses exp in red and blue.

[@MrLucky5001]

CactusErebittsu and if Mintendo/Game Freak keep it like it is now, they should nerf it. That would fix most of the problems. That's what I hope atleast.

[@urcle3704]

I LOVE the new exp share. Sure it makes the game easier, but you can always turn it off. Though a hard mode is very much needed.

[@Metroid4ever]

+APC Urcle Nuzlocke mode ftw

[@POKEGAMERZ-uy5lv]

Sun and Moon got rid of the HM problem and has another item where U could call a Pokemon to do HM related things. That item also got rid of the need for a bike. Basically Tauros is bike, Mudsdale goes through rough rock, Charizard flies, Lapras surfs and more.

[@joshuahunt3032]

Thank you for including the Eon Flute. Truth be told, I find it more immersive than using fly.

[@edavis9799]

If only Fire emblem had the exp share...

[@bens.1475]

Would be too op sadly

[@Yddor1]

+E Davis i would be too easy IMO

[@CursedWulfGaming]

I think the exp share should go back to working like the old one but they should have a post game item that works like the new one.

[@abadgurl2010]

Lucky Egg acts like the old Exp Share. And another thing you can do is to max out your Pokemon's affection in Pokemon Amie and that Pokemon will get more exp than normal.

[@CursedWulfGaming]

+geekqueen2010 I thought the lucky egg just increased exp. I might be wrong but I remember the exp share splitting experience without you having to switch out and the lucky egg increased the amount of experience a Pokémon gets.

[@SakuraAvalon]

Thank God for Exp Share. I was so burned out on grinding after Black and White. Also glad I'm not alone in hating that dumb decision to get rid of the character customization.

[@suicidallysosome4651]

I think it was omitted from ORaS because RSE didn't have it.

[@tj12711]

Customization felt like a chore to me. Just give me all the crap up front. There's no need to force the player to grind for such minor rewards

[@SakuraAvalon]

***** So, you'd rather have less? Cause they're not making it easier. They're removing it completely.

[@tj12711]

Roxie ღ No I agree that removing it was stupid, but I'm saying that I personally won't miss it because I thought it was a chore.

[@KaraokeHavok]

100% agree with your points on the Exp. Share and the Eon Flute!

[@ShadowBlazer3000]

Honorable Mention to The Running Shoes. It is kind of trounced by the bike later on but it sure makes getting around quickly when you can't use your bike or you haven't gotten the bike yet.

[@Hakuhunter1]

I died at that Mozu part. That was too real.

[@CTheng]

Too all those complaining of the new EXP share you can TURN IT OFF, if you didn't know. But you still don't turn it off because you know that if you do, you will bitch about having to grind harder again.

[@RoxasMatheson]

I thought the EXP. Share in the newer games didn't split the exp, rather giving all pokemon full exp, leading to overleveled teams

[@MugenMook]

it does.

[@MugenMook]

+crazyjohnb22 it doesn't split xp

[@MrServantRider]

+Roxa The teams do get overlevelled, but it completely removes grinding. I think they're just on the verge of mastering the EXP Share gameplay mechanic.

[@pulseofme4949]

+Roxa if I were GameFreak I would put 2 types of EXP share in the games, 1 that lets you level up a single pokemon and 2 the EXP share we have in ORAS and XY. that way everyone wins.

[@kabobawsome]

+Roxa It splits it up, with the active having a higher percentage, from what I can tell.

Nah man, the Soot Sack is the best Key Item.

+CommanderCorson Gotta get that furniture for the secret base....

[@N00BterminatorX]

R.I.P. Azure Flute - Super cool event key item never officially distributed. That tune it plays is still so eerie. And it summons Gods. So interesting.

[@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor]

Well Wittz. I guess you got your wish. No HMs in Sun/Moon.

[@MozillaVulpix]

I don't like the new Exp. Share. It's so horribly broken. Even without trying, you just become overlevelled, and the game ceases to be a challenge in any way.

[@devilhunterradio8395]

Turn it off then.

[@MozillaVulpix]

+Jack Solus I feel like some people wouldn't even know you COULD turn it off. I mean, I did, but that's because I've played Pokemon games before it.

[@starling6113]

+MozillaVulpix thats idiotic, if someone turned it on in the first place why wouldn't they know how to turn it back off.

[@Trunks1stApprentice]

Fun fact about the modern EXP Share, coming to you two years after your complaint: The modern EXP Share functions almost exact like the EXP State's predecessor, the EXP All from Generation 1. Found via having 50 Pokémon at minimum registered as captured or owned in the PokéDex, you receive it by talking to one of Oak's aides. It functions almost exactly like the modern EXP Share. You have it in your bag, and the entire party will gain experience even if only one of them battled, and it can only be turned off by placing it in your item storage (remember when that was a thing?). So ironically, the modern EXP Share is just what the EXP Share used to be.

[@glitchyboi1323]

@@starling6113 thing is, the exp share was on by default upon receiving it.

[@dylster2662]

Ideas for key item HMs: Cut-Small hatchet Fly-eon flute (could use your Pokémon) Surf-surfboard Waterfall-eon flute (Pokémon flies you up) Dive-diving gear Dig-not a key item, but escape ropes Rock smash-sledgehammer(possibly)

[@tnlhunter97]

I just wanna say I love your editing effects when talking about the exp share

[@ameenkimdar6363]

Who actually checks trash cans? (I feel lonely)

[@alphahunterd]

Lolz! XD I play Fire Emblem so I know that.

I see what u did there

[@Kuebel350]

+Passing Strange I don't get it.

[@guilmon182]

Funnily enough, EXP Share completely changed how I played Pokemon. I played Red when is came out in '98. Back then, and for most of the generations afterward, I didn't grind. I literally ONLY used my starter, leaving every other pokemon I caught in the dust. But when X and Y came out, and I was given the EXP Share, I actually started using all of my pokemon, even strategizing for Gyms and Rival battles. I don't know why, but being given the ability to viably do what had been doing all along caused me to play differently.

[@kazekamiha]

It's funny seeing this list have Gen 7 and seeing the Aeon Flute seeing as Gen 7 DID AWAY WITH HMs! Overdo for it too.

[@kimochang7169]

I think so
