Obscure Gaming: Pocket Monster Saphire Bootleg (GBC)

[@Yuriofwind]

Guys, I'm aware there are two errors in the video. The Pokenavi thing, and me saying Celebrity instead of Celerity. Just letting you know that I know, so you don't have to let me know :3. I hope you will forgive me though ;_;.

[@Mrrubbaduck]

This video was the highlight of my day.

[@Bloodiasfire]

You are forgiven a thousand times over, just due to how happy your videos make me. :3

[@squirtleawesome1064]

Wait, you get to fight in Silph Co.? THAT'S AWESOME! (aka the place with the fountain.)

[@zybotch]

Keep up the good work Yuriofwind! Your give-it-some-thought-but-dont-take-things-too-seriously, approach to gaming and videos is very refreshing. Love that you can delve into the merits and shortcomings of games, without sounding pompous and instead, very genuinely relatable. Again; keep up the good work!

[@Yuriofwind]

Michael Masson Thank you for this very nice comment :D. I'll try my darndest though ^-^.

[@Yuriofwind]

Man, it's almost as if I predicted those Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire remakes by doing this. I, am a magical being. New Bullshit Creepypasta Storytime either tomorrow or Saturday. For reals this time, got the audio done and everything. :D.

[@sliceofpistudios]

Yeah, I love the Wikipedia page for them "they are suspected to be remakes of the 2002 ruby and sapphire games" no shit

[@guzziel4]

Waiting for a new creepypasta video...

[@Bloodiasfire]

sliceofpi productions That's because we don't know if they're remakes or sequels. The trailer describes the games as "a new adventure" and stuff.

[@GodOfTheeGames]

Magical being? BULLSHIT! YOU'RE AN ALIEN! I KNOW IT'S TRUE!1!!!!!one

[@gravitybreaker1]

Do Final Combat

[@Yuriofwind]

I hope everyone enjoys the first new Obscure Gaming in like, a year :D. Sorry for the late upload. A flood knocked out the power. My luck is, not very good you guys o_o.

[@TheRetroGamerHD]

So glad to see this series back and with such a good choice it's like Fire Emblem and Pokemon had a One Night Stand and 9 months later this was popped out

[@SugiDev]

u said Celerity wrong! :P @7:05

[@Pyrocore77]

This was so worth the wait. =)

[@BunnySenpai]

Thanks for this! Your kind of humor is my favorite and brightened my day quite a bit today.

[@chatchat102]

Psst, Yuri... Kamen Rider Super Climax Heroes... Obscure Gaming... We can make this happen...

[@thehat4284]

"Nothing will sell your game quite like lying about it" - Yuriofwind, 2014

[@Redhotsmasher]

I'd say that's quite a good summary of most of the AAA gaming industry at this point.

[@YuNarukamiBrakeAnimalplz]

Redhotsmasher *cough watchdog and unity cough*

[@ramiel555]

+The Hat EA's tagline >.

[@garfunkeldisco8546]

So when's Sakurai announcing Fat D for Smash?

[@Bloodiasfire]

This HAS to become a thing.

[@Gerardo-eo5kb]

Probably at E3, he is keeping the big guns for E3

[@cave6300]

Bloodiasfire This better happen. I don't plan on getting a Wii U or a 3DS, but I will if Fat D enters the fray.

[@PokeymanTrainer]

This is clearly the beta of Pokemon Conquest.

[@Redhotsmasher]

"Fat D" sounds like it could be the name of a DJ or something. Would probably be spelled "Phat" though, like "DJ Phat D" or something.

[@YuNarukamiBrakeAnimalplz]

Fat Dick a name for a rapper?

[@Redhotsmasher]

Prince Kalian Could work too, I guess.

[@nel9318]

DJ Swing Them Tits

[@okwhatever3]

"Can they really get out of all these problem in a whole skin?" "Not a day goes by that I don't ask myself that same question." I died laughing. subbed

[@clemmu]

FORM THE BABY ALLIANCE

[@auxnull]

Baby Alliance ... ASSEMBLE!

[@SebbySenpai]

Words cannot explain how giddy I get when I see a new video from you. Well, one can. Ultragiddy.

[@Gibbontake]

Seems very Fire emblem inspired

[@0verCloud9]

Surprisingly for a bootleg, it actually looks like a lot of fun(even though gameplay looks like Fire Emblem). I thought at first it looked like Mystery Dungeon... wait a minute...

[@ckueckman]

Reminds me of FE2

[@ToanaYurashi]

my thoughts exactly

[@takumidoutou4412]

Like a weird version of Pokemon conquest

[@FaraazQmehrTheLastHope]

bethany waters Pokemon Conquest is a weird version of Fire Emblem!!!

[@DeeCross]

Quiet explanation: "Magic Babies" is the old Taiwanese title of Pokémon and was the closest thing to an official Chinese title during the 00s. The official title is "Spirit Pokémon" (Pokémon being spelt with "treasure", "can" and "dream").

[@XerxesTexasToast]

Jigglypuff is Fat D. I'M _DONE_

[@SuperTKO]

This was a great episode. The scripting was great and there was a great comedic timing. But I think what really pulled the episode is the enthusiasm in your voice (and the voice quality). I don't think I've ever heard you sound so upbeat, so either you were in a good mood or great at faking it. Over all, great job.

[@moomimi]

This was the only GBA bootleg game i've enjoyed during my childhood. It's a solid game unlike Naranja, Freego returns?, Mewthree, Crystal some name w/e you can summon a monster by phone. Most of the bootleg games have invisible blocks that you couldn't pass through the next level.

[@Kirbachu5]

Recommendation: Obscure Gaming: Quest 64

[@MarioGenerations]

Not obscure enough

[@SolidSnake684]

Fat D? My god! Thats the best name ever conceived!!

[@driftercarbon]

A decent and unusual pokemon bootleg that I've never heard of? Amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[@Yuriofwind]

Always happy to share :D.

[@GodOfTheeGames]

Yuriofwind Sharing is Caring :D ...Wait... Oh fuck no, nevermind... Sharing is Nothing I suppose...

[@The-Game-Merchant]

Has anybody else played a Pokemon game, caught a Jigglypuff, and nicknamed it Fat D?

[@isabelle2944]

Get an entire party of level 100 Jigglypuffs, each called called Fat D. Trainers won't know what hit them, and the hall of fame will be glorious.

[@timmyreobed5043]

I will now.

[@grumblezard9842]

Thanks for the video, Yuri! I really missed this series, good to see it again.

[@GodOfTheeGames]

Watching this for the third time, I decided I would look up the color 'Carbuncle'... Boy that was a mistake .-.

[@SoapyFae]

That fact that your end slate fell apart like that actually made it better in my opinion. Then again i'm probably just a horrible person who is amused by the suffering of others.

[@Redblaze27]

You shold get a random guest to do your endslate one time just to confuse people.

[@ECCOstation]

Yuri, you were one of the first people I ever subbed on KZbin and your sense of humor as well as the information you provide about games is always a treat to watch! Every video I have seen by you is entertaining, as well as informative (excluding Bullshit Creepypasta Storytime...those are just flat out hilarious). Keep doing what you do man!

[@EternaMidnight]

I laughed so hard at Fat D that it made me drop my laptop and the battery fell out

[@birby100]

I actually just fully beaten this bootleg yesterday. Sure, it may seem easy at first, but there is a HUGE difficulty spike near the end of the game. Bosses will start at Level 80 while yours are still in the 40s, making it near impossible to hit them as their evasion is so high, and with every later boss in the bootleg having recovery moves, battle can drag on forever unless you knock them out before they use those moves. I was actually forced to level grind a bit JUST so my "magic babies" can even land a hit on them, with the bootleg Lugia and Latias being the biggest offenders of this, and a little bit of Ho-oh as well, but not by a whole lot.

[@TheZamphire]

you could say that this video series is Obscure.

[@textreme02]

Can't believe I never realized that bulbasaur was a frog..

[@SpoopySoup]

Carbuncle A carbuncle is a skin infection that often involves a group of hair follicles. The infected material forms a lump, which occurs deep in the skin and may contain pus. When you have more than one carbuncle, the condition is called carbunculosis. -google

[@markhenderson9507]

You learn something new everyday I guess. See Mom and Dad, I'm not wasting my life watching these kinds of videos on KZbin...I just learned what a carbuncle is.

[@SpoopySoup]

***** your profile pic fits that comment so purrfectly heh heh purr, ya know... like a cat ilikedogsbetterdontjudgeme

[@occupythe401]

New Obscure Gaming and Gaming Mysteries are one of those things that I actually get excited about. Your work is awesome, Yuri. And seems to be only getting more entertaining.

[@likky1]

something tells me this is a bootleg made out of the first super robot taisen games it would explain the random G-gundam music

[@householdrecordings]

I just can't get enough of Yuriofwind these days. It's been like a few days of me binging of a couple of his videos. Your comedy is just so...unique, to say the least. It's peculiar and always manages to get a laugh out of me. Never stop making your awesome videos! I love them to death. -Love, Jessica xoxo

[@householdrecordings]

@yuriofwind

[@metakarta643]

its fire emblem with pokemon.

[@uuu12343]

AntChodeny Actually I don't think we want that Because we might actually get perma-death to our Pokemon team ;-;

[@fireassassin123]

Eternia we already have that in a sense... It's called the Nuzlocke Challenge. Also god damn it will there ever be a day where a Strategy RPG isn't compared to Fire Emblem, the most popular game series in that genre

[@gunma747j]

it is actually super robot wars

[@182supermario]

You know, with a few translation tweaks (okay alot of them), some new sound and artwork, and maybe some spritework, I can see this being an actual title on the Gameboy Color to give American Fans a preview of the Gen 3 pokemon, with it taking place in the anime's universe like with Puzzle League, and they call it "Pokemon HeroQuest", do you think that would be good?

[@warcriminalvids]

XD I was dying when I read jiggly puffs transalated name, Big D

[@mpanyek]

The audio for "Flying in the Sky" is making me excited for the Gundam video. I can't wait for you to upload it.

[@alice6035]

Fat D is the funniest thing I've heard all day I'm so mature.

[@theflyingkitty13]

W-We just need a series of Yuriofwind talking about whatever he wants. I would love that, and so would everyone else. :P

[@OizenX]

Magic Babies

[@SnakeGeo]

i like how each of your videos has a great amount of depth to the subject

[@Thekinggamelon]

You know, this strange game kinda reminds me of Fire Emblem.

[@LatiasDita]

The gridless battlefield is more akin to Shining Force than Fire Emblem.

[@CrazyBoyStudios]

"Yeaaah thanks." Ahh, I missed Yuriofwind's 'special' brand of humor.

[@nextlevelgamer3]

Two things 1: its fire emblem basically (actually, that would be an awsome side game) 2. 11:05 OH MY ARCEUS, A SHINY DITTO

[@fireassassin123]

NextLevelGamer it's not a copy of Fire Emblem... It's a Strategy RPG. Also if you want to play a better Pokémon Strategy RPG, you could just play Pokémon Conquest for the DS

[@sarcasmanstanley3856]

This is definitely my favorite channel right now :D

[@RascalTheChao]

Based on how hard I laughed at "Fat D", I can finally see why I get called "immature" by my peers.

[@RaDejagp]

Everytime a yuriofwind video appears in my subbox it brings joy to my heart

[@rinrinri101]

Who doesn't love a good magic baby game?

[@JamGuy]

Please Yuri, don't ever stop making these awesome videos.

[@Cyliano]

so... its a bastard child between fire emblem and pokemon

[@PsychoIncarnate666]

After looking into it, the most game breaking glitch to me is that Squirtle is in the game but doesn't get his evolutions

[@EdKolis]

Speaking of Pokemon names, how come Meowth evolves into Persian (an actual word) and not Purrsian (a pun befitting the franchise)? Was Purrsian already a furry porn star or something?

[@jackwaynick4619]

That pun is so good, I have no idea how game freak could have missed that

[@MarioGenerations]

Pokemon names are Japanese words put together

[@EdKolis]

Maybe "Pikachu" is, but "Bulbasaur" sounds like "bulb" + "dinosaur", and "Charizard" sounds like "char" + "lizard"...

[@FnrrfYgmSchnish]

In the first generation they weren't quite so set on making every species name a pun yet. There's other "oh, that's an actual word" names too -- Golem, Electrode, Gloom, Ditto, Slowpoke...

[@yourbootyholeisyourbeautyhole]

Ed Kolis this is going to bug me for the rest of my life. thanks a lot, asshole

[@Whateverusernamedontcare]

I seriously could not stop laughing at the magic baby thing. So fucken funny. Great job again yuriofwind your humor mixed with these nonsensical games is such an amazing combo. I don't even mind waiting for your videos they're completely and totally worth it. Keep up the fantastic work Yuri.

[@scarylions]

Fat D is my new favorite Pokemon.

[@TheMonyarm]

Before i just watched your videos from time to time, but now knowing that you're a fan of Kamen Rider, you sir just earned yourself a sub on both channels.

[@rainpeach3684]

This is a good video. I give it a pa ss

[@RCT3Crashes100]

This is like a mixture of Pokemon, Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters, Advance Wars and Fire Emblem blended together.

[@ErstonLMFAO]

It looks like super robot wars

[@camthred2636]

Just a solid video! Love having this guy back!!!

[@Spiderfog]

It's like Fire Emblem, but with Pokemon. If it weren't horrible, I could dig it. Also, Xiaozhi is apparently Ash's Chinese name.

[@TSLlol]

awesome video man, your writing has really improved. Like this episode I felt it was perfect, and it made me laugh a lot, good job!

[@GamersXnostalgia]

This is JUST like Fire Emblem.

[@Outside998]

Or the Nintendo Wars.

[@CuppaGi]

And a bunch of other games. Fire Emblem isn't the only game with this sort of system.

[@SpoopySoup]

Gino Ramos Disgaia

[@hoborg98]

Why is everyone referencing Fire Emblem? Fire Emblem was just based off Shining Force.

[@0m4rWuzH33r]

hoborg98 The first Fire Emblem game came out for the Famicom in 1990, and the first Shining Force came out 1992. Famicom Wars also was a game made by Nintendo that was a part of the same genre that came before Fire Emblem. The GBA one was the first one to come out in the U.S., not the first one in the series.

[@DakinRinone]

Remember watching this new when it dropped

[@Craytonex]

Fat D is my favorite Magic Baby.

[@NintendOtaku96]

It's ironic that I would've expected this scary underground movie trailer for a Yuriofwind Creepypasta video.

[@Mewyz]

Am i the only person who wants to play this just to laugh at the pokemon names?

[@moomimi]

Trombone master Despite the hilarious texts the game gets you hyped up and fun to play. I still have the game ever since 2007ish? Funny how this video had gotten 200k views, probably that "magic baby" thing.

[@MikaVagabond]

Great job Yuri! I really liked this video. The bootleg actually looks playable and interesting. Hope to see more soon.

[@timmyreobed5043]

This looks like a combination of Fire Emblem and Pokemon Vietnamese Crystal.

[@OutlawOtaku]

Kind of. But they got the UI of Super Robot Wars too. It's especially damning since the G Gundam themesong plays during one character's attack action.

[@fincke19]

Haha I like this video's end slate. Another good video by Yuriofwind. Keep it up man, you really do an amazing job.

[@UndeadFrankie]

DO NOT SEARCH CARBUNCLE

[@SaihaljiSD]

Mike Hunt They were looking for the gemstone, which is alright. Why it shares a name with THAT is beyond me.

[@UndeadFrankie]

Lol i warned you

[@dbgrfdg]

Mike Hunt I wouldn't have looked it up if you wouldn't have told me to not look it up..

[@incrediblyundeniable2326]

MY EYES!

[@ramiel555]

+Mike Hunt loooooooooooooool, staff infections >.

[@JaguarRawr]

The fact that you go along with it and continue to call them magic babies just adds hilarity. Jeebus that is one bizarre translation...

[@SystemDryfter]

"Fat D" Hahahah!

[@OranIsGone]

Pokemon Conquest was a wonderful game, one of my favorite spin-off Pokemon games. It might have helped that I went into it with ... lower expectations, but even then, it was so much fun.

[@Superjeepdad1]

Well, This game is based off of Fire Emblem, because its battle interface is similar to it. Trust me!

[@juniorthethird08]

Couldn't stop laughing at "Fat D". At some point, the translators must have just stopped giving a shit.

[@sporemaster9108]

Take note that this is a fire emblem game with (essentially) a pokemon texture pack, the top down view mid game, just look at any older fire emblem game and you'll see. If you want a far better game (at the cost of no pokemon) play the fire emblem series.

[@xXNightmareZero8Xx]

Started getting into Kamen Rider thanks to your recommendation; Gaim is super dope, really like it. Gonna have to watch the previous 30 Years at some point after I finish reliving my childhood memories of Mobile Suit G Gundam/Gundam Wing lol :) Thank You, Yuriofwind! Your taste in Japanese culture is excellent

[@ghostfunk]

Yuri senpai make make magical babies for us!

[@thecheesewizard]

Yuri this is one of my favorite series you have. Keep posting videos!

[@UltimatePerfection]

Hiya, I'm preparing fixed version of this rom. I've already fixed texts (grammar errors, misnaming pokemon, etc.) and wrapping issues, but this is where my romhacking skills ends. I need someone who actually can code for GBC to fix things like text speed and other problems that can't be fixed by replacing text. Also replacing music with one from RBY and GS.

[@Arrowdodger]

how'd it work out?

[@TheD4ncer]

Dude, this and gaming mysteries is what I live for! It didn't feel like a year >_>

[@Kroeckinator]

This actually looks fun... I want it xD

[@urcle3704]

***** fire emblem is terrible ino

[@KaziSIqbal]

***** Dude seriously I love Fire Emblem and all but just don't command people, they have their own opinion okay?.

[@takumidoutou4412]

Get pokemon conquest it's similar and if not just get Fire emblem: Awakening, i personally prefer awakening but conquest is close to my heart.

[@fireassassin123]

hhug.me/?post=30 If you want to play it here's a link to download a working GBC rom of it that will work on GBC/GBA emulators

[@Redhotsmasher]

The "Magic Babies" thing actually comes from literally translating the (or a?) Chinese for Pokémon back into English, I remember seeing a KZbin vid about some bootleg "Magic Baby" Pokémon trading cards with hilariously "translated" names on them. ...come to think of it, I think I'm gonna go rewatch that now.

[@diegosanchezescobar2159]

i lost it at Fat D

[@aaronyeboah6494]

Koei made Pokemon Conquest with The PokeCo for the NDS.

[@Iponamann]

I hope Fat D is in SSB4!

[@awesomegnat2065]

carbuncle is actually an alternate translation of a Chinese word meaning Ruby. Got that from the bootleg games wiki.

[@TheArtunism]

Can you do a video on Kamen Rider Chou climax heroes

[@secretbootlegs]

Every time I hear the word "baby" in this video, I chuckle a little.

[@PrismaticGlaceon]

Tbh, "Fat D" is my favorite name. Also, 13 is actually my lucky number. Don't ask... It just is.

[@t-wrecksthenerdasaur7468]

I did enjoy the video Yuri, thanks for asking :P In all seriousness though I actually really like Obscure Gaming (or Bootleg Gaming really), more so than Gaming Mysteries (but not as much as Bullshit Creepy Pasta Story Time) so I hope we can see more of these in future. Keep on trucking Yuri, you crazy dynamo.

[@Spark31Gaming]

Sooo, fire emblem but not really???

[@Arrowdodger]

Spark yeah, it's kind of like that or Shining Force

[@ASpooneyBard]

This was like an Obscure Gaming and a Bullshit Creepypasta Storytime in one video. Never stop doing what you do Yuri.

[@VezixHaikal]

Fire Emblem Pokemon Game??

[@Arrowdodger]

I love Golem dancing along with the G Gundam music.

[@mikemoos]

Do you have a bowtie? Your voice reminds me of someone with a bowtie somehow.

[@badwithnamesguy2929]

Who needs Pokemon Conquest when you have this?

[@TheGhostbuster1989]

"2003 pocket monster carbuncle"? EWW!!, why would someone name their game after a skin condition

[@tra5481]

*Color/Skin Condition And the answer is Me.

[@jungla3]

I actually didn't know that, so I searched on google images for "carbuncle"...while I was eating breakfast...

[@TheGhostbuster1989]

jungla3 Im sorry :(

[@tra5481]

I searhed it up too... Let's all just take a moment to reminese on how terrible google images is

[@Jayneyy]

great video man! you have such a nice voice, you should consider voice acting or audiobooks or something (also, you laughing at the end of the end slate was adorable)

[@stareevee2662]

Lol, Fat D. X3

[@PG_Jade]

Gaim is absorbing my life! That new episode was EPIC!
