Playthrough Rules:
1. Only my starter in battle
2. No items in battle (except held items)*
3. No glitches or exploits
4. No Double-Team TM before level 100
Other rules:
-- *Pokeballs are allowed in battle
-- I play the game at 4x game speed (238 frames per second)
-- My Pokemon has near perfect DVs
-- I manipulate my Pokemon's DVs to choose the typing of Hiddenpower
-- The bike is allowed
-- Saving between league members is allowed
-- If the solo Pokemon faints and I choose to blackout it counts towards my reset counter
*Double-Team:
-- Almost every Pokemon can learn Double-Team through TM
-- The TM can be purchased in Celadon
-- Using it would centralize the meta
-- Every Pokemon would use it to overcome tough battles at lower levels
-- It raises evasion
-- Banning the TM allows Pokemon who learn it through level up to use it
-- I believe evasion is part of Pokemon and shouldn't be banned entirely
-- I don't want the videos to all be double-team spam though, that's not fun or entertaining
Crystal Version changes from Gold/Silver:
-- The Rival in Burned Tower is mandatory - he must be completed before Morty
-- In the overworld, many trainers are repositioned
Terms:
-- STAB
-- Same-Type-Attack-Bonus - a 1.5x damage multiplier
-- Stat Experience
-- The Gen1&2 equivalent of effort values. You can invest in all stats until they max
out at 65535
-- DVs or Determinate Values
-- The Gen1&2 equivalent of IVs (individual values), these range from 0-15
Resources:
-- Gen 2 Stat Calculator: pycosites.com/pkmn/stat_gen2.php
-- Trainer IVs (DVs): bit.ly/3tDU0Bx
-- All Trainer Pokemon have EVs of 0 (stat experience)
-- Gen 2 Crits occur 6.25% of the time

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I was honestly thinking I had that wrong lol. I commented something similar regarding Skull Bash on a Gen 1 run thinking it buffed defense for the badge boost, but that defense buff didn't start until Gen 2 (learn something new everyday). I'm def not the expert on early gen games, so I confuse a lot of those things with later incarnations. Edit: I guess I should add it didn't matter at all on the 2nd higher level playthrough. Food for though for other Feint Attack users (maybe Sneasel???). Though I think Sneasel will STRUGGLE, poor thing.

Yeah, I knew various stat calculations involved taking the floor, but was unaware of how that created optimal levels for damage rounding, or that it was due to performance issues doing floating-point math on the Gane Boy. Or that Gen 2 *also* has a (less abusable) badge-boost glitch. I appreciate Scott's little peeks under the hood. For all the janky bugs and poor design decisions in Gens 1 & 2, I really admire what they did with the limited hardware. Even sexist decisions like using the Attack DV to determine a pokemon's gender¹ were creative ways to allow pokemon to be traded to RBY and back again, without flipping gender or changing Hidden Power type. ¹rather than mapping an Attack DV of 00-07 to female, 08-15 to male (for a pokemon with 1:1 gender ratio), they could have used the four DVs' least significant bits, similar to how Hidden Power is calculated.

Houndoom is absolutely my favorite Pokémon, and I was fortunate to use it when I played Silver back in 2002, mainly for Red's Espeon. And at that time I also had a Rottweiler called Rocky and she was a female, so now in any game Houndoom is available, I always catch a female Houndoom, name her Rocky and add her to my team ❤️ thanks for doing this video of a very special Pokémon to me!

Red is a lot more difficult than Blue as a final boss, so I do not know what you mean it is easier. The league is easier to outlevel but also more difficult for its level so that is not even a good metric. How did you make this assessment?

Sure, Gen 2 has a more challenging Elite 4 & final boss. But Gen 1 solo runs usually run into more early/mid-game hurdles: * Brock with no special attacks or ways to dodge Bide * Misty/Rival 2 (did you train enough before jumping the ledge outside Mt Moon?) * Rock Tunnel's trainer gauntlet * Easy lategame locked behind Rival 5 and Koga. If the game was coded such that Koga couldn't "win" by self-destructing his final Weezing, he'd be less of a wall. And if you're solo-running a "lategame" mon like Ponyta, Tangela or the fossils, have fun with your limited moveset! Gen 2's biggest solo-run wall (besides Red) seems to be Rival 2. Sometimes Whitney's Miltank, Morty's lead Gastly, or Jasmine's Steelix. But it's not like Falkner forces you to overlevel if you lack a special move. Nor does he stock 10 full heals.

@@dislexyc fair point, I suppose that's the nature of certain Pokemon in these games, this evolution line is literally right at the end of the game in mount silver hidden would a low encounter rate. You're probably only supposed to get one and grind it up it's levels for competitive Pokemon as it's such a powerful Pokemon. Mind you Scott normally makes special videos with pokemon like this just because we wouldn't see it evolve till the end of the Kanto section. I would expect a gen 1 v gen 2 pysdo race between tyranitar and Dragonite in this case. I do prefer watching the pokemon actually evolve in these runs but yeah I'll agree that for better content wise not all pokemon will work that way.

Odd times, but still one of my favorite generations.

Houndoom is just goth arcanine, and I’m all for it. On another note, adding a column in your live feed of move stats for accuracy (at least on your readout, no need to put it in the final video) would have made that faint attack against muk thing stick out like a sore thumb when you’re kind of on autopilot. The accuracy of all your other moves would have gone down, but it would have stayed at 100% (or nil depending on how you have it presented). On the other hand, I like the little “oh I caught that!” moments. They add a feeling of humanity to the ones and zeros that make up these adorable little pocket monsters on top of being great for getting people to comment. Good run.

Just finished watching the first run. Just a few things: Against the trainers in Chucks gym, It's probably better to use headbutt over ember. Ember is stab, but its pretty weak, and the hitmons have good SpDef. There are a couple Pokemon that do resist dark and fire. Tyranitar and Poliwrath resist both. (But you never really fight Tyranitar so I dont think it counts) When you kept missing agains the minimized Muk, you could have probably taken it out with feint attack (or faint attack) If you catch any of these before the video ends, then please remember i'm making this comment before the second run. Good video as always so far! I'm going to continue watching the optimized runs now.

Houndoom happens to be one of my favorite Pokemon of all time, so I am really hoping he will do well. He is quite strong and has a great typing, and his Gen II moveset is not absolute garbage, which is rare in that gen. I think the main two things which will hold it back is the Slow level up group and the fact that he learns Flamethrower quite late. He might struggle with Chuck and Bruno (weirdly enough), unless you give him Hidden Power coverage for them. Whitney does have Rollout which is super-effective, but I think that outspeeding and two shotting her with Bite should be enough. Clair's Kingdra could pose some issues, to be honest I think it will highly depend on Houndoom's level. The Slow level-up group might hold it back too much. I am undecided on Lance, who could seemingly go either way. With Red, there might be an issue with Snorlax building up Amnesia (since Houndoom is fully special), and Blastoise being bulky enough to survive and KO. This is where I think that Houndoom's Slow level up group will catch up with it and give it issues. Still, I am rooting for the Demon Doggo! No matter what happens, he will always be one of my favorites!

My Houndoom Memory - playing through either colosseum or XD with a friend we could not agree whether to add Arcanine or Houndoom to the team, and after too many rounds of rock paper scissors tied , we added both... the type diversity was not great but given that both are fairly fast and quite strong we often ended up using them as our lead team and just burning away all who apposed the puppy pair - we also named them after our dogs at the time. Dusty and Major kicked major butt! :P

Houndoom is such a cool dog mon and giving it a Mega was even better. I wish I could have enjoyed using this mon in Crystal but by the time you reach Kanto, what's the point? Unless you want to have a strong team for Red but by then meh, it's not the same. It sucks for Game Freak to do that. Not a great way to promote Johto Pokemon. Great video Scott!

The Houndoom line is pretty interesting, not just because of its typing, but because it can learn a lot of great moves. I really like the synergy between sunny day and solarbeam, but I would have never thought it's going to be useful for most of the late game. 😊 Red's snorlax has low defence, so maybe sludge bomb, could do for it, and it can poison and force it to rest. Anf you could swap the gender of your Houndoom to a female so that you could use attract and make Red pretty much trivial. 😊 And also, I'm up for the bark boost so that roar can make damage like it should have been😂. And losing a level everytime my opponent attacks that's a nice idea for a challenge, maybe I should try it someday 🤔. Like always, thanks for making me have a good time(by the way these bloopers are the best 😂) .

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon just remember that poison in gen 2 is physical😊, so opponents with low defences can be poisoned and do some big damage. By the way, I'm glad that helped you, I'll try my best to keep on doing that in the future 😊.

It's pretty interesting to see that Gen2 got 4 new E4 members. I wonder where all the Gen1 E4 members went (except Lance who became the champion) Like, I get that the lost hiker possibly went back to the Rock Tunnel or somewhere, but it's interesting to see that Lorelei and Agatha were totally absent in Gen2.

Is it more efficient to grind in Mt. Silver or run through the league a couple times? It would obviously depend on the mon, but for a fast sweeper like Houndoom it might be a timesave.

In the beginning you talked about how only flying was paired with fire in Gen 1. There was an oversight in Gen 1 (well several) but one of the oversights came later with magnemite. Gen 1 consists of (RBY and Stadium) once you save with magnemite in Stadium 2 and then trading back to stadium 1 it “becomes” a Fire/electric type

A disappointing outcome, but these videos always seem to surprise me. Pokemon I expect to do exceptionally well often don't, and pokemon that I expect to struggle end up S tier. These videos are so interesting. Of course, I love Houndoom, but it's always been a middle of the road pokemon. I love Tyranitar, too, but the x4 weakness to fighting hurts it, a lot.

There's an interesting dual-type triangle in gen 2 with Houndoom, Poliwrath and Exeggutor each being good against one but weak against the other, like rock, paper and scissors - could this be an idea for future gen 2 runs?

Please do Lapras. When I was younger I always wanted a Lapras in the Gen 2 games. Little did I know you could actually catch one early on, on Friday in Union Cave. I was shocked! Always wanted to see what it might be like having a Lapras early on. Love your videos especially the Crystal Version ones it's my most memorable game. ♡
