Can You Beat Pokemon Red/Blue WITHOUT EXP? 

Smallant1 literally unacceptable please reupload now

Pretty sure you can edit it out with the RU-vid editing tools

It makes me so happy that you edit your own videos.

i thought i accidentally skipped back a little in the video lol

Lucky Builder Same here!

Shout out to that one guy in the video’s chat who asked if anyone had made this joke.

*XP skip :P

You're going places, kid.

nice

I’m doing ad skip

Explanation / Mind to elaborate?

I'm actually interested in hearing about how that works. I'm not doubting you, I'm just curious.

Jumittaja 06 critical hits were based off speed in gen 1. Because razor leaf has a high critical hit ratio, they combined to almost guarantee a critical hit. And I believe the actual ratio is 99.6%. Same for slash with Persian.

SilverX UmbreonX Basically the formula for crit% in these games is [Base Speed]/(64). Note that this applies for moves with a “high critical hit ratio” such as crabhammer, slash, and-you guessed it- Razor leaf. With the examples of moves above if a Pokémon’s base speed is over 64 they will always crit. Also note that this ignores leveling up/stat boosts because it is BASE speed. The early games were a wee bit broken

@SinisterMinister This just in Making an observation doesn't imply that all previous statements that did not take that observation into account were worthless.

big brain puns. also why do people in youtube comments feel the need to be malicious? especially with like the most pure streamer and viewer base, it just makes me sad

Ayyy 666 likes

Mark Parrish yeah ppl so toxic these days idek why

This is so cool

@ and also provided no proof it was a legit run. So in hindsight, it literally means nothing.

That's right you can catch higher level on victory road

Vegeta Dbiop you could probably beat the whole game with that and luck.

John Smith stfu he cheated. He used level 1 Pokémon but hacked

Same

To be honest this seems like one of the least torturous Pokemon challenges I've watched...

It only took 8 hours and no grind at all. If anything, it proves how easy this game is.

@@Izelor definitely not easy compared to future games lol.

@@theSato None of the Pokemon games are 'hard' per se, the players have to come up with silly challenges to make any of them require the use of your brain

@@nintandao64 never said it was hard but later games are definitely easier

Timesave

Silas vs Games still beat it 2 hours faster than I do when I train

El Cristian impossible. Time doesn’t work like that!

El Cristian actually, you did

El Cristian I agree lol

more like, rock slam

Tombstoner

However the badge boosts are reset when you heal with an item

It's funny how he said glitchless at the beginning when it's completely impossible to do a glitchless run :D

@@lambybunny7173 Isn't a glitchless run completely impossible because a Pokemon in the intro sequence uses the wrong cry?

@@BaufenBeast How is an incorrect cry during the introduction a glitch? That's an accidental coding error that was fixed and never replicated (from what I know) from all generations onward

@@xiaolin867 it's a coding error. that's a glitch.

Basically Sans from Undertale.

i wish i was in on the joke :( is it from the smo thing?

@@T30BO55 it's because he keeps redoing the battles to see which strategy works, it's not a joke really.

@@Error403HRD i meant "THE MAN"

@@T30BO55 Ah, that's what smallant usually calls his rival in pokemon games

I miss Gen 1 Gastly.

@@elephystry yeah before he was a big ball. Poor cloyster suffered the same fate

sounds painful

This is so weird if you don't know what Golbat is lmao

Gen I AI mechanics ftw !

Bellsprout OP. Don't you remember Ash himself getting swept by a Bellsprout in the Pokemon League?

Y’all remember when pikachu got one shot by the damn thing

And then Muk hugged it to death

yaziyo sounds about right he is pathetic Red is legendary.

Quebec?

Same here :) I learned English with Pokemon Yellow

my first pokemon game was actually pokemon stadium and I couldn't read all that well back then. so a lot of it was just learning things through trial and error, and paying attention to type colors. and the length of the move names. it lead to moments like discovering that pokemon with the green symbol were strong against pokemon with the brownish one. so when attempting brock's gym, I'd grab the whole oddish family, and early stage bug pokemon. and then be confused why half of my team was underperforming. if memory serves me right, I got pretty far despite that.

@@Eidenhoek Yup, that would be the one!

@@dermitdemflow7171 I'm curious, from your username, I would guess you're German? If so, did you get the British releases back then because there was no multilingual European releases for GameBoy Color games? I remember getting a few GBA games when I traveled to France back in the day and being excited that they were in French. But I have no idea about GBC games. If you're not German/European, you can disregard the above questions. :)

yeah pretty...underwhelming run^^

I would have liked to see him try it without rare candy.

Long verison: he spends a long time getting to Zapdos, then catches Zapdos and steamrolls everything

tldr: legendary r gud

With no legen would be way cooler

So true xD

*started eating kids

GlowstoneLove Pad *started TEACHING kids

@@primarina9812 *started eating kids

Huh, I did not know that. Thanks!

It's amazing to think what Pokemon would be like if the reason that Pokemon's code got better were to die after Gen 5....

George Bailey what does pog mean?

@@lucaskincanyon7393 It's a Twitch emote if you still care to know.

@@lucaskincanyon7393 pog = play of the game basically

xKatzz trueeee

His content is too inconsistent. He plays a bit of everything but doesn't excel at anything. His commentary is decent but not everyone is interested in his random content. If you stick with him you do it for his personality not for his gameplay. Most people don't enjoy all this random content. His views are great and that is what matters. I've seen tech channels with over 500k subs having less views than this channel so his channel is quite popular so he's not underrated by any means. According to RU-vid analytics a video with just under ten minutes makes 1 USD per 1000 views for the type of content he makes. for an hour worth of video you get about 10 USD per 1000 views. So he made 500 USD from this one video. Subs mean nothing when it comes to income, views and adds is all that matters. So don't be baffled this guy makes a bucketload of money for his content so I think he isn't underrated by any means.

Robin Clarijs that was pretty big brain not gonna lie, your completely right

@@___Robin___ That's really wrong. You don't get more money for a longer video. You get money per ad view, and with people using adblockers I wouldn't be surprised if this video made less than $30.

@@___Robin___ Nearly every big RU-vidr is a variety streamer, your point is invalid.

gen 1 is wack

this is only true for great balls i think. for the other balls its 1/3 of max hp.

Lief Nova high key they should have finished Zatch Bell the anime instead of that cliff hanger

@@mangomath2175 it IS true for great balls (dunno about safari balls though) but for other balls, iirc the catch rate cap is reached at ~33%

@@juliet0001 Seems like it.

Also, if you use a fight or poison Pokémon against Lorelei's Dewgong, she keeps spamming rest

Mattia Agosta all terrain venomoth vs dragonite

If you just want the 0 exp mod, and you're comfortable patching manually: in the rom at offset 0x552A6, you should see the bytes FA 08 D0; change them to 3E 00 00.

Hey, Elf Monster! I was just talking about you this morning.

@@AzzyTheGreat Elf's, here are called monster.

I should have had more faith in you. I'm sure you had it in hindsight!

Hi

SeksereHak woah dude woah not cool!

Lmao

All attacks are useless against the Lycel

elaborate

@@biblee9804 I'm not 100% sure about this one, so feel free to correct me but a rom version of pokemon black, there was this thing where you wouldn't/couldn't gain exp, so when you fought cheren and Bianca first, you didn't get exp, likewise when you fought N in accumula town, you got no exp from beating him. I read it was to do with a faulty/nodded emulator but I don't think so. This was from my experience so that's why I'm not sure this was the reason. But still, I didn't realise until after my fight with N when I realised I had won against that level 7 pokemon with my level 5 snivy and still got no exp lmao. Damn I talk too much

@@aihwhejskskkksjdjfjncbs same with Pokémon black 2 yeah, a unpatched file won't gain exp.

Mama Diepie wait does that mean my Pokémon black and black 2 roms wont work? I got them off vimms lair and was hoping to play them after platinum

@@hockeykings3793 if it's an unmatched USA version, probably not, but it wont hurt to test. I mean 5 minutes max. There are others you can find that are some of the first results that come up

Nice Comment!

*Moans hard and loud*

@@hellou0007 no-

😂😂

That's what she said

accurate

Unova and Alola, but accurate to the places that in real life that they were based on.

Too real, tho

A critical oof.

Uhhh, isn't this the No Exp run for Pokemon Red/Blue?

actually, no. The scariest fights are probably brock, route 3 as a whole and misty, other than that, the challenge isn't even hard. E: okay, this is obviously assuming that you came up with the "proper" strategies for the run.

Yeah, it's essentially the first shake of the pokeball since there's one less actual shake

@@drthvrdr Thanks for the explanation!

grrrrrrr! why did you ss--s-s-s-s-s-swear!

@@habib3059 Because I'm an adult, so I can speak however the fuck I want. Furthermore, I am not a native English speaker, so I use "fuck" in my day to day life in lieu of actual swear words that are frowned upon in my native language.

I was gonna comment this too! 360chrism gang😎

That was being heavily thrown around but Shu didn’t like it

Shu no-

How do you take out a bulbasaur with water qun

People have done runs like that. A lot of the time they just rely on busted pre promotes or promotion bonuses.

Ooo, never even imagined that before. Hi from another Fire Emblem fan!

if it was impossible its not clickbait. The answer would be no

Was it really 360p? Ant made it 1080 cause he's high quality not the vid. :D

144p

Only pokemon with explosion is the other option

Joseph Hollis That’s what happens why you take time leveling

i'm fairly certain that's commonplace in gen 1. i had that abcd thing happen to me on my physical copy of blue on my game boy, so it might've just been a placeholder sprite

@Gavin James did u even read the comment

I mean smallant isn’t beating it to beat it, he’s doing it to have fun so people shouldn’t really care. Ya know how boring the content would be if he was hyper focused just trying to do it as fast as possible (yeah ik he does other speed runs but just let him do what he wants).

Cannot unsee

Couldn’t have used them?

Or turned it into a flareon

@@glowstonelovepad9294 Flareon in gen 1 learns fire type moves at level 34,and its not even ember.Its fire spin...at least it works like wrap in gen 1. No,how Flareon REALLY works is getting the tm for double edge,teaching it,and then...well you got a powerhouse that hits like a DRAGONITE.I used one in yellow,and it almost never used a fire type move.

Onix has the same base attack as wurmple. Let that one sink in.
