Those names for the capture strats, truly speedrunner behavior

[@chucho.mp3]

Loved the way the balls buster transitions into the sponsor, I watched the whole ad just for that detail.

[@radlee13]

Sure hope one of these 50 mons is cute enough for Erikas gym or my runs ending badly

[@PulseEffects]

The weird thing, they actually accept pretty every Pokemon you show them. Speedrunners used to them show them Kabutops and somehow still got through. 😂

[@irregularstuff5290]

she has broad definition of cute.

[@nousername191]

@@PulseEffectsAin't no way 🤣

[@Aquarios1337.]

Question is, what doesn't qualify?

[@Kraiglyndor]

The way the game works in handheld mode is that pressing the A button throws a ball at the exact center of the screen. You can use motion controls or the camera stick to aim.

[@blockmath_2048]

The transition from the capture method to the ad i can't

[@michelleneous6480]

That transition from the capture strat name to the sponsor was beautiful and flawless. Chef's kiss

[@gaminggoddess85]

Always fun to hear someone talking about their nuts in the middle of a children's monster catching game...

[@andrewcook8300]

The song at 1:40 is so good. I’m so glad to see Gravity Rush getting some love, even if it’s just through one of its songs. What a great game. The song is pleasure quarter from gravity Rush. Definitely play the game if you get the chance, its PS exclusive, including in their game pass, and one of the best games I’ve ever played.

[@vinny4765]

This is one of the games with the lowest barrier to entry for speed running in my opinion and it's genuinely fun. Lots of other games have grinds to them with certain kill points in the run where you might as well reset. Even when a Let's Go run goes poorly I still wanna play it through though.

[@FireBlindStudios]

2:23 Joycon go Y E E T

[@lucafreak5]

Great Vid! This is why I also like watching Firered R2 speedruns, every run is different and the 60 catch count really shakes things up

[@razorsedge7501]

There's a reason this is my favorite Pokemon speedrun. And actually prefer AOP to any% cause catching is the funnest part. Well til dratini says no 😂

[@randalleatscheese6644]

i want aop vid (totally not for selfish reasons)

[@OreoDood]

That sponsor transition was actually insane!

[@pokepress]

It’ll be interesting to see if they put out another set of games like this at some point.

[@tatlxtael2303]

the technique being used as a segway was something clever ill give you that

[@135forte]

Who ever said Go was linear hasn't seen the POC for it. It's like 120 mons before *Surge*. Edit: And don't act like you don't like the Ball Buster.

[@Punktiman]

Perfect timing, I just wanted to try my first speedrun and wanted to try the Lets Go games.

[@Claude9999]

Pulse with another great pokemon video again

[@adnagapot]

I forget this is a speedrun and not a Nuzlucke and that you can catch multiple Pokemon on the same route

[@eliastomperi5601]

Since Werster finally did it, when does your video on pokemon hg/ss sub 3.30 drop? I know you have it prepared already ;)

[@unclebenandcracka]

I love this game so much.

[@hkumar30]

babe wake up, PulseEffects just uploaded

[@thamzhiyong3161]

That eevee power tho...

[@zekeke]

man i gotta do this on my ds i subbed!

[@RucadiDev]

I just love this game, easily the best one they have released since 3DS era. Quality-wise is almost perfection.

[@user-hq7js2wf7h]

Lets be honest these are underrated games

[@TheBeggies95]

People generally hate it but this is my favorite pokemon game. Nostalgia has a lot to do since i started with Blue on the Gameboy.

[@BWoodRap]

It would have been cool if you had told us the current world record. I'll go look it up real quick. Edit: the current world record is just under 3 hours, for anyone curious.

[@PulseEffects]

I keep forgetting to do this lately. I'll keep note for the next video!

[@BWoodRap]

@@PulseEffects it's all good man. I enjoy the content regardless. I haven't noticed you forgetting in other videos, and I watch everything. Maybe I noticed here because I thought "maybe I'd try that speedrun" lol. Keep up the good work!

[@calvinlicuanan2803]

W, I’m motivated to pump & pump & pump with/my Starmie

[@mxganyu369]

off topic but i was not expecting danganronpa music for the background audio XD

[@johnhawkins5314]

Gotta love Pokémon Nidoking version

[@DeadvidDivide]

12:19 I did!? is this a new world record?

[@hiramocacio2079]

Banana

[@P1kaSans]

orange

[@moyai5317]

Best pokemon game

[@frankyquilavafireblast895]

I don’t know man those names sound pretty credible to me

[@denman2991]

in my opinion all future games should look like this from all switch games it looks and runs the best

[@NeCoruption]

I... HATE the gym challenges

[@PulseEffects]

I definitely understand why if you've only played the game casually, but I can't recommend enough trying a speedrun of this game! It will 100% change your outlook on then.

[@flyingcaro]

Wait there's a woman holding a pokemon speedrunning WR? Are there more than that? Enough for a video maybe? I feel like sometimes I'm the only woman into speedrunning haha

[@trivvaria]

Oh hey, that's me! While I don't know how many of us currently hold a WR (and to be clear, mine is in a pretty niche category extension), there's definitely more women runners out there! I recommend checking out Frame Fatales (GDQ's all women marathon). There's a couple of Pokémon runs on the schedule for their upcoming event!
