Hey, I remember that normal run! "...12 years ago" *proceeds to turn to dust*

@Zek3nator 2 месяца назад

I still want Ruby with a team of Blastoise, Golem, and Octillery. Mystery Dungeon said it couldn’t be done.

Why would that be impossible? That's a crazy powerful team.

@Zek3nator 2 месяца назад

@@ricardoj376 It’s a campaign idea that was brought up in response to an story beat in Mystery Dungeon where a team of Octillery, Gollem and Blastoise all lose to Groudon. MDB jokingly said that he wanted to do that team as a challenge run.

i feel like this could even be expanded on. "pokemon _____ with only that generation's signature moves". so even if a pokemon is the only one able to use the move. it isn't allowed outside of the generation it was introduced

@J05TI 2 месяца назад

Yes! But also, this challenge would be trivial. Isn't spore the signature move of Paras and parasect?

@faerylnhiikira1053 2 месяца назад

MDB: "The only Special Move Hoothoot/Noctowl can learn is dream eater." Me: "Ackchually, Hoothoot learns Confusion at level 34 in Gen 2. Noctowl at 41. That said, like other commenters have already pointed out, Girafarig would be really useful for your Normal-only run as a Normal/Psychic type.

@TheNoteblockLizard 2 месяца назад

Qwilfish plz :3 Also, a "1% Encounter Only" challenge, where you only use Pokemon who have a 1% encounter rate, could be fun depending on the game.

@ratspew932 2 месяца назад

Having to catch at least 6 mons with a 1% encounter rate doesn't sound fun

@AKLFratGuy 2 месяца назад

Oh yeah. A Gen 2 swarm team would be a good challenge and he can cheat the encounter rate up.

@wildstorm3486 2 месяца назад

There are 2 reasons why your Snorlax out speed Red’s even though it was 15 Lvs lower. 1)in these early gens obtaining certain badges grants your Pokemon stat buffs. 2) A players Pokemon gets stat experience. For beating Pokemon in battle. It’s a lot like EV’s in later gens. These two combined allowed your under leveled Snorlax to out speed.

@somegal3836 2 месяца назад

Addittionally, at least in gen 1, all trainers had Mid DVs for all their stats (8 in everything except for attack which is 9). So if gen 2 is the same, MDB's snorlax could have had a higher speed DV than red's.

@GelatinCoffee 2 месяца назад

he probably forgot about #1, he says in more of the recent gen 1 challenges at some point in the video "and i completely forgot. no i techincally failed because i'm not restarting a match every time the enemy hits me with a status move, which activates the badge boost glitch"

@GSamus14 2 месяца назад

Fun fact: Gen 2 Sleep Talk can trigger Rest even when you are asleep, which is why Gen 2 Player battles have by far and away the average largest turn count.

When Heart Gold came out, I got a Kangaskahn before Whitney because Kanga can be caught on the first Poke Walker route if you go for a long walk irl. She ended up being a cornerstore of my team and my favorite Johto Normal type I've used. And while Kanga in HG is fun, I'll still recommend Stunky in Heart Gold for a 4th week in a row.

@kabirdang1346 2 месяца назад

Kanga is not a johto mon but that is a very fun memory!

@domain2genus 2 месяца назад

Ooh, having done a Stunky run for fun in Platinum years ago I would love to see MDB take on that challenge.

@qinaxin7107 2 месяца назад

So as far as how you outsped red's snorlax with yours despite being much lower level, part of that is because you get boosts to stats from having certain badges. But npcs (even those who canonically have those badges) don't get those boosts. Anyways, going to keep asking for black/white with a ralts. Comments are good for the youtube algorithm.

Great run, MDB! A little shocked you didn’t use Girafarig! It would likely have helped with some of the physical walls due to access to STAB Psychic (and I think it learns T-Bolt).

The fight Vs red really shows the importance of EVs and badge boosts in this game. Its such a handicap not having them

@SomeGuy712x 2 месяца назад

(13:24) Well, it helped that you got two flinches with your Stomps. Clair probably was indeed trying to spam Surf with her Kingdra, but only successfully got one of them off. (23:33) Outrage is a special attack in this game, so Reflect would not have softened it at all, though it would've halved the damage from Hyper Beam if he decided to use that. (28:30) And that's game! Snorlax was certainly the MVP after you caught it.

Hey, MDB! Normal types are always fun to watch due to their sheer move type variety. On an unrelated note, that nostalgia trip going all the way back to the first ever Normal Run was kinda heartwarming. As a symbol of our appreciation for you, and because it's also a normal type, this would be the perfect time for a Platinum Lopunny Solo!

@thomaswinwood 2 месяца назад

If you want more runs which aren't solo challenges: paired version exclusives (e.g. beat Pokemon Black with only Reuniclus and Gothitelle, where you use the UPR to start with Solosis since you can't catch it in the wild) and pseudoexclusives (e.g. beat Pokemon Black with only Lilligant and Whimsicott, where you start with Cottonee and use the ingame trade to acquire Petilil; Throh and Sawk work similarly).

@bivcbmtgstgtssscqcrddgtrsm2257 2 месяца назад

I don’t come for the challenges themselves as much as how fun these videos are nowadays.

I am guessing the reason Red's Pokemon are so weak for their level is so that players will see the high level and train to be that strong, then feel really good when they wipe him out.

@Milacat 2 месяца назад

I wish Girafarig would have been on this team. I used one in Crystal back in the day and it was so good! I think it even learned crunch and psychic, so it was such a good pokemon on my team.

Mono-type runs are fun. Looking at mono-types is how I realized there are NO non-legendary pure flying-type pokemon. So a flying-type mono run is literally impossible in most generations, and would require a legendary in others.

@Karokzak 2 месяца назад

Pokémon Challenge suggestion: You are free to go with the game of your choice, but the challenges is using only middle evolution stage pokémon. (For Exemple: If you pick Bulbasaur as your starter, you can only battle with Ivysaur.) You are not allowed to use pokémon who's has no evolution or only 1, it must be a pokémon with a 2 stage linear Evolution. So pokémon like Eevee or Tyrogue are not allowed, but pokémon like Oddish, Poliwag or Ralts are allowed. Try number: 3
