*THIS VIDEO CONTAINS MAJOR PLOT SPOILERS*
When Pokemon Scarlet and Violet came out I decided I wanted to be one of the first people to ever complete the Pokedex. This is the story of that speedrun.
Run started just after 10 am EST on November 17th (JP eShop release) and finished at 5:58 pm EST on November 20th. There is only one known recorded pokedex completion (excluding leaks) that finished before this by / @astelleda . That run uses online trading with others for version exclusives making it the first co-op completion. My run, however, is entirely solo and all Violet version exclusives were caught on stream by me using a second switch before being traded to Scarlet, making my run the first solo Pokedex completion.
Want to find me elsewhere? I'm active on these platforms and even stream daily on twitch!

*THIS VIDEO CONTAINS MAJOR PLOT SPOILERS* Because I complete the whole story and catch every Pokemon, I would not recommend watching this video if you are trying to stay spoiler free. I figured it was implied with the premise of the video but I'm pinning this comment as an extra precaution.

@doug539 Год назад

The reason that Pawmo didn't evolve was because the step count resets once you end the let's go mode, so it has to level up when it is out. And yeah 1000 steps won't take too long, 3 minutes of walking would be enough.

@asmodeus3147 Год назад

oh I didnt know it reset, thx for the info lmao

@mutaku4287 Год назад

Thank you so much

@dmitrierichsen455 Год назад

@@mutaku4287 It does not reset. I accidentaly put my Pawmo back in the ball multiple times. It's just important to keep it out in let's go mode when levelling it up. :)

@@mutaku4287 Sorry, tagged wrong person.

@CyPhaSaRin Год назад

@@dmitrierichsen455 you mean it needs to be outside the ball and given a candy or exp to get it into the next level and only then will it evolve provided you have fullfilled the 1000 steps? I mean I dunno about the 3 min claim whoever made. I walked my price of crap up and down the desert for 10 two nights back and it's still a fkn pawmo. I hate the thing, gotta do it with 2 more Pokemon yet.

@Mari-he1jp Год назад

Congrats on completing the pokedex by yourself! Completing it all by yourself is insane, i would have gone insane if i were in your shoes. My favorite thing about Astel’s run is that unlike your stream where you just turned the stream off he would just leave the stream on and take 2 naps for a hour throughout the whole thing and just go back to catching pokemon normally. I don’t understand how you guys function at all like this.

For the walking evolutions (pawmot, bramblin, roller) just walk from mesagoza gate to light house in the beginning area then back to mesagoza and circle back to Los platos. Longest route possible. It got roller evolved without having to count steps.

Easiest way to catch all pokemon is get a pokemon that can learn false swipe. Level it up to 70+. False swipe knocks the opposition's HP to 1HP therefore easy to catch.
