662 - I picked 2000 berries for 1 item in Pokémon Silver... 

Finally, we’ve reached the pinnacle of gaming itself

I'm so happy that Youngster Joey finally got the Final Boss™️ classification that he so rightfully deserves

Hi I'm Johnstone Gaming and I was in this video! (I really liked it)

Is it weird that I watch Absol videos not just for the insane Pokemon stuff he does, but also for the little travel segments? Like, I've never known a youtuber that goes to such lengths to spend time with friends as he does. It's genuinely heartwarming.

The thing I like the most about your videos is that you don't just talk about the game, the challenge or your experience in the game. Its about the journey. I heard you talking about it on stream, but this is literally your diary, the history of your life, and I'm really glad you're sharing it and your passion with us. Keep doing it, it's a lot of fun!

You must feel my pain. I finished obtaining all obtainable PokeWalker Pokemon about a month ago, after working on it for like 4 months straight. I walked over 300,000 steps before I stopped counting. The biggest problem were the special 2% Pikachu variations. I need to see somebody else do this challenge.

2,000 berries and 2,000 memories made along the way! amazing vid dude! it was an honor to crush some squids with you for team strawberry!!

Hi I'm Johnstone Live and I was in this video! (I really liked it)

All this effort for a Moon Stone when you could have just registered NASA’s phone number and gave them a ringy-ding

Matt really took nearly 3 months to be able to say: "But did you get Wigglytuff before Faulkner??" Matt: Checkmate

Hi I'm Johnstone VODS and I was in this video! (I really liked it)

Matt Absol doing an insane grind for no real reason other than because he can? Beautiful. Truly lovely. Sure to be another Absol Blogs™ Banger.

I think this is the first comment in forever I've posted using this specific account but you truly deserve to hear this. I've been a Pokémon fan for as long as I can remember (absol is also my favorite!) I've been watching your videos for a long time, on my old account too, from the tcg ones, to the shiny hunts, to the lv100 gauntlets, and everything in between. They've come such a long way since you first started. I'm proud of you, the progress you've made, and how talented and inspiring you really are even if you don't realize it, and I'm sure all your fans are as well. Your videos get better and better each time you upload, and they always help me smile or laugh when I need it, or just overall relax after a long day (I could fall asleep listening to your littleroot town night music, seriously one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.) I can't explain it, but it feels so refreshing and as if all my bad thoughts go away while listening to it. Your style of content is so unique from other youtubers, mixing real life footage with gameplay just makes it feel so genuine, and like we're your friends hanging out with you there instead of just being viewers. It really shows how passionate you are and how much effort you put into your content. I admire that so much about you, and you deserve a million subs, all the support you get, and much more than that. I always look forward to your content and see what you'll create next. You have true potential. I'll never stop supporting you or watching your videos, keep up the amazing work! (Looking back I wish I commented on these videos more but I'm very introverted and afraid of judgement lmao) edit: I know this was a long comment but I had a lot to say 😭

Would be pretty cool to see the 666th video be a Shiny Vivillon hunt of all it's forms in Scarlet and Violet with Vivillon being No. #666 in the National Pokedex that a Mr. Johnstone definitely didn't suggest

i fear not the man who has picked 1000 berries once, but the man who has picked one berry 1000 times

What I like to do is get a Totodile and beat Faulkner for the TM Mudslap all in one go, without saving. Then I make sure Totodile is level 17 and holding Mudslap. I proceed to the nearest Pokémon Center and use the PC to duplicate Totodile sending me back to my last save. If I've done it right and my save is right before selecting the starter, I'll be able to pick a new one and still have the level 17 Totodile with Mudslap safely in the PC. Next, I select Chikorita and do the same thing I did with Totodile, only stopping at level 15 this time instead. After that duplication I can select Cyndaquil. I now have all 3 starters, plus two copies of Mudslap which sell for 1500 a piece. You can then duplicate the TMs endlessly for all your early game needs. Also, a lot of players neglect Buena in Goldenrod. She can get you early Ultraballs and Rare Candies.

This man john’s outta pocket for flying you to GA on a coach seat 💀

Happy to hear I wasn't the only one to name Silver "???" As a kid xD

Matt selling berries for in-game years at 5 cents each: It ain't much but it's honest work.

Imagine all that pain only for the wigglytuff to be released

Everytime I see a new video of Matt I always go "Oh man what did he do again"

Hi Absol, when this video had recently came out i had recently moved from Texas to Ohio and in my last year in Texas every time id see my psychologist id see that poog graffiti[ my mom told me it probably was doog.] It had sort became a running joke i have quite a few memories at the Pokémon store and another in the same mall so seeing the bit a bit in Texas truly felt like an end to a cheater in my life. I know I'm just a stranger on the internet and most likely oversharing but, thank you.

"Oh no, your whole molecular structure changed! That's bad..." I do not understand why this had me so giggly

Fully evolved level 1 pokemon are very funny to me, and it's a pretty normal thing for stone evolutions. I approve of this painful grind because babby Wigglytuff is peak comedy.

Matt Absol doing an insane grind for no real reason Other because he can

After all this hard work you must be berry proud of yourself

Georgia Baja Blast must hit differently, it's like a regional variant.

Matt will have those passwords memorized for the rest of his life

It’s funny to me because I live in your parents neighborhood and while you where “walking looking for berries” you walked past some Dewberry bushes. Sooo close to berries.😂

Congrats on the berry gauntlet win! It’s always a delight when you post, and I’m particularly fond of the animal clips you get :> you can really tell how delighted you are by The Beasts just watching what you film! Looking forward as always to your next wild project!

the dedication you have for some of these challenges is inspiring dude. love to see it and looking forward to the prof oak challenge!

What a wild ride! What would be a tedious grind to some turned out to be a whole adventure for you! It's always such a delight to see all of the great memories you make during your challenge videos. Keep up the good work, Matt!

A great way to spend time while bed ridded: watching another sick person do something that not even a team of the best doctors can comprehend. Can't wait to see the follow-up!

These videos get my so hyped to play more Pokemon dude, another classic vid for the archives!

I love seeing the different challenges you take on! Great video as always Matt

Very impressive my man! Keep up the hard work! I remember seeing you pop up back when absolutely was really doing his thing strong and now you've come so far! You are amazing!

Wow, what an opener for a goated Prof Oak challenge, you truly take it a step above every time Absol, very glad I have been following you with your PokeContent for like 2ish years now, awesome to see how far youve come with editing, voice overs, scripting, etc. Always PogTent (Poggers Content)

i was expecting a quick silly video to tide us over until the release of the full challenge video , but this is a whole story in and of itself !! very excited to see what's to come in the rest of the challenge

We watched this video during a Johnstone stream and it convinced me to sub. Love your vibe, man!

This is crazy. I had a nightmare of a 16 hour work day today and at the start of it I thought to myself "man it would be cool if Absol uploaded today to make it a little better". And boom here it is, I appreciate you man!

Look at those two legends!!!! Never seen a better pair of Baja Blast Cups!

2000 Berries is a small price to pay for Guildmastr.

It's always a good day when Absol uploads, I learn so many things from your challenges!

Congrats man, that is an awesome accomplishment 🙌 i look forward to the rest of this professor oak challenge✌️

Great video and love your humor :) cant wait for the full challenge vid!

Wow I had no idea the sprites were different for each gen 2 game.

your channels so real and well edited, instant sub only 2 minutes in. Very inspiring and cool dude

I literally have that exact Konosuba outro video in my playlist for the game store I work at! Same thumbnail and everything! Great song, and great video! Cant wait to see the full challenge!

I’ve been waiting so long for another upload! This is gonna be such a gem

You're one of the few content creators who make long-form videos that I like to watch till the end! Your videos are very comforting and always a pleasure to watch due to the effort you put in and your personality. Great work as always.

super fun watch as always, can't wait to see the rest of the oak challenge !!

The Moon Stone Gauntlet is finally here! Loved that you did a collab with John for the video too! Keep up the great work Matt!

2:52 IM SO GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THAT

7:24 dude i LOVE THAT SONG-- congrats on the radar sweep day one!! (this is me not talking about the second day) Thank you for reppin team strawberry, and congrats on that shiny new moon stone!!

Woah, I didn't know about that select button trick! 🤯

You’ve been absolutely cooking man, can’t wait for the final silver vid!

Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work!

this video keeps popping back up in my recommendations and i just wanna let you know that i smile every time i see this goofy-ass thumbnail

I can’t believe you were in Austin and I missed you! Ive been to that exact pokemaniacs store hundreds of times.

the project diva music at the end was so surprising lol

Great job Absol it was nice seeing the scenery and stock footage and I look forward to seeing your prof oak challenge and keep up the amazing work

insane dude. loved every minute

Such an amazing vid as always, Matt! Reliving the Austin footage was so cool too, that weekend was an absolute blast! Can't wait to see what comes next on this challenge! Oh and one more thing......... Forretress.

Literally watched that Professor Oak challenge yesterday, what great timing!

Neat run & analysis video! Thanks for uploading!

THIS is how you get random people to see your vacation photos.

you got a job as a farmer instead of being a pokemon trainer. good job.

>doesn't upload for a month >releases video about collecting berries >elaborates (about berries) >leaves Gigachad gamer Matt

As soon as I saw the title I knew exactly what this was all about. Not proud of it but it is what it is. 😂

Matt, you are a mad lad and an inspiration- keep me coming dude

I can’t wait to see the full video! ❤

awesome challenge! looking forward to see how the rest went

another classic matt absol grind. you’re truly a madlad

In case no one mentioned, once your 3DS is jailbroken you can update it safely. I’ve jailbroken 8 consoles and none of them were ever harmed by being updated.

0:01 bro has yokai watch, he really is cultured

Was wondering when the next AbsolBlogsPokemon video was coming out, glad I didn't have to wait too long!

I am pleased with the amount of animal footage in this video. 👍

“The Professor Oak challenge is…” *staring at Professor Elm* “Here’s the guy who the challenge is named after!”

Amazing video as always. Thank you for the entertainment this morning

I’m glad Steven Stone sent you to John Stone to help you get the Moon Stone

I somehow knew toy would finish in my birthday. This was so impressive and such a joy to watch :-)

Dang two whole plane seat trays sounds miserable, hope it never happens again.

I've always loved Johnstone's Prof. Oak challenges, so seeing Matt Absol do them is a joy.

great video, but best part 0:00 Theres a copy of YO-KAI WATCH 2 Psychic specters! My favorite yo-kai watch game! Pokemon will always be my favorite series, but yo-kai watch is a close second!

Man I dunno why seeing you and Johnstone together made me smile what a great time

The anime song joke earned you my sub. Funny and amazing perseverance my guy

15:55 woah this just unlocked a core memory for me! I actually got a card parody I made into a Beckett magazine! I don't remember which issue and I don't think I have a copy of it anymore, but I do remember the card. It was the Clefairy from the Expedition set that I changed to 'Tooth Fairy'.

Berries to the moon📈 Also its weirdly satisfying how you uploaded this video about the moon stone grind during full moon night! Great video!!

thank god you opted to go out of the way for the moon stone in this run. the falkner fight is really tough without that extra power

Man i love videos like this. Can't wait for the sequel where you don't time Travel Lmaoo, 400 days

Is that how farmers make money in the pokemon world? Mad respect to our PRZCUREBERRY farmers! Anyway, Can't wait for the silver Prof. oak challenge!

I see you named your Jigglypuff Guildmaster. A true man of culture.

WOOOOO Love your stuff Matt Keep grinding, legend!!

I ate a container of blackberries watching this 👍

You can pick your friends, you can pick your PRZCUREBERRYs, but you can't pick your friend's PRZCUREBERRYs Unless you're johnstone, I guess

The thumbnail is so cursed I love it🤣🤣🤣🤣 Buffed up jigglypuff LOL

Always a good day when Matt uploads

“One of the Christmas movies of all time” 😂😂😂😂

Let’s go, absol posted. Time to watch at 6am and lay in bed while kicking my feet

Bro made me watch his travel blog by disguising it as a Pokémon video
