How Much Weight Will I Lose Catching Every Pokemon? (SoulSilver Professor Oak's Challenge Ep. 1) 

Hey guys, hope you enjoyed this video! If you'd like to get videos earlier than they release here on YT, check out the Patreon page and become a $5+/month backer! www.patreon.com/ChaoticMeatball

Holy shit, this is incredible! I'm so happy to see everything come together! I can't wait to see the journey unfold!

I'm extremely proud of you. Taking your health seriously while making great content. Would a treadmill be worth considering? I imagine the strain on your ankles will gradually build up from the walking in circles, even with the turning around.

This could possibly take multiple years which is crazy don’t get discouraged tho I like prof that anything can be done with enough grit and determination. Also good lesson that things don’t come easy just keep stepping away at it

Super impressive! Just remember that while tracking macros can help with certain aspects, if your goal is to lose weight all you really need to pay attention to is your calories in and calories out. Also following diets that you can stick to for the rest of your life. Keto works great for some, but will you continue sticking to it for years to come? The important part is that the weight comes off and *stays* off. Keep up the good work!

Lots of respect for being so open about your weight struggles. The internet can be really harsh when it comes to appearances, and I'm really glad you haven't let that discourage you! I'll be keeping up with each and every update, and I hope everything goes well ❤

Super awesome challenge, mad respect. I do really think a treadmill is the way to go these small Laps kill your ankles and knees

When he says “I appreciate you stepping out of your content comfort zone” I couldn’t help but think that we should be proud of him doing this for himself.

By far the most unique challenge run I have ever seen! Thanks for sharing your experience with us Chaotic!

When is the next episode? Im curious how much progress you made 😁

I understand why this one was scrapped/put to the side, still a bit sad to see it left behind though. This video got me into being more active regarding walking, complete with taking my own Pokewalker along to count the steps and the levels. Started with a lv 2 Sentret and it's lv 21 now. I haven't been able to walk as much as I did back then, but still grab the little guy when I have a chance to.

And nothing was said of this ever again

Still waiting for part 2 I hope this wasn’t just a scrapped project

I hate to say this, but I knew that he wasn't going to continue this series..

I would love to see you grocery shopping and seeing the whole process because I think it’s very interesting and would also help give me some ideas on how to loose weight myself. Also I feel your pain with being a Florida resident lol it gets so hot and humid here and I usually have my ac on all day long and the temperature just keeps rising lol. I’m lucky if it gets below 80 during the day and then it takes most of the night for the temp to finally get down to a nice cool 74

I’m waiting for part 2 :(

PLEASE keep making this series.. i’m begging, this is such a cool concept and i think it’s so cool how you are doing it for health benefits

Way to go dude, im proud of you! And i'd love to see the shopping process to help motivate you to keep this up!

Once you lost some pounds and got more comfortable with walking, try doing your steps outside a little. More heat + humidity = more sweating = more weightloss. Stay hydrated tho!

Mate, you’re a legend for this. Inspiring, what an amazing way to take something that you’re passionate about and turn it into a creative and positive lifestyle. Can’t wait to see how far you take this!

Really sad this is the only video on this challenge. Don’t know if you’re still doing this more passively, but I’m rooting for you man!

Thank you for doing these challenges! Can’t wait to see the total count!

Sitting here two months later waiting on an update. . . What is up Chaotic Meatball?

i would also recommend trying different places to walk, a change of scenery can really improve mood after a while of walking

Congrats Chatotic! Lockstin’s video spurred me to lose almost 40lbs going on a keto style diet last year. Can’t wait to see how it goes for you man. Always here to support you man

So did you just give up on this?

This is easily the most excited I've been to watch your content. Looking forward to future installments!

Bravo! I used to clip my pokewalker on my bike's shift cables when I went out to ride. It counted thousands of steps on a couple hour ride. It was awesome. Good luck! Slow and steady makes all the difference. It's not a sudden change, but a lifestyle change. You can do it!

Was there ever an update to this video?

What happened to this series?

Where is the next video in this series

Still waiting for part 2, good luck bro!

This is such a good idea. Love the combination of self-improvement with your normal content. Keep it up!

Dude, please bring this back! It's a fascinating idea and I love that you're trying to improve your health while still doing what you love

This is amazing! Keep it up man, best content you’ve made. No one is doing this kind of thing. So glad someone is actually taking their health into account and also training Pokémon. You’re the closest thing to a real trainer out of anyone

I don’t know who put together this diet, but you get ripped off. You don’t need powders or protein bars to lose weight. Just exercise more and cut out carbs (or at least sugar). I literally went from 100kg to 87kg in six months without exercise just by eating the right stuff (no protein bars or powders, food marketed as high protein is a rip off).

Still waiting for an update for this :(

When the next episode been anxiously awaiting this series hope all is well

I’m rooting for the best for you! Kill them calories!

R u still doing this?

Been awaiting this one for a while, and I’m happy it went well and that you lost some weight doing it! Good job man!

So much respect king, getting out of your comfort zone and making unique content. Youre a fucking beast.

This is a great start to the series! And I can totally see the Florida on your living room. XD. Where are the new uploads on it, though? Even if you fell off track for a bit, I would love to see the next one. Even if it lost some ground. (And it is super common to lose a lot on the start, and to "gain it back" right away. The trick is, it wasn't actually fat burned for 14 lbs in 1 week - that would be almost impossible. 1/2 a pound per day is crazy good.) Here's hoping that you didn't weight on at 315, and get discouraged, and stop this challenge...

Hey man, as an overweight person myself, it's really inspiring to see your effort! Keep going, you're awesome!

Part 2?

I wish I was here when you started this video. I would have recommended you go outside 5 minutes a day and work yourself up. Your body acclimatizes to the heat over time. Sweat rate remains about the same, but you feel more comfortable and the body expels heat better. Also for eating, one of the best tips that no one talks about is if you are craving a food that is 10/10 flavor, Sabotage it to be 8/10 flavor. For the keto diet, this usually happens by creating a keto-friendly recipe lol. It usually helps reduce the craving without the insane dopamine spike that causes binging. Perhaps someone else might benefit from the above ideas. I Love the idea with this series. I’m super excited

Loved this video!! excited to see it continue! totally inspiring!

Aw, I was looking to find the next one of these - I hope it's going well.

Gutted this hasn't been continued

Hey man I just wanted to say that it's super cool of you to do this and it takes a ton of courage and we're all here for it. It'll be a long, arduous journey but you have us

good on you man, i may start doing this too, just as a way to turn working out into a kind of game, i also recommend ring fit adventure, if you have a switch, it makes working out really fun and is also made by actual health scientists and stuff.

I came here for pokemon but I'm staying for the weight loss. Keep it up you got this. I start at 300lbs at the end of May I'm at 254lb right now.

Hey man, just wanted to let you know your content inspired me to get back into some of my older games and tackle the professor oak challenge! This video especially though really put a bug on me to grab my pokewalker and start trying to pay attention to my steps per day as well. I love watching your stuff and hope to keep seeing more in the future!

Eagerly awaiting part 2 of this. I love the idea of this and I'd love to see how it's continuing to go.

Insane props man. Consider renting/buy a treadmill as its a lot easier than walking in a circle and you can always add incline later on. Also be cautious of the calorie intake. Weight loss is just a caloric deficit. GL man!

this Is an amazing challenge! I wish you a lot of luck! If you want to take a stroll somewhere else thats climatized, I wonder if a mall would work, too! Bonus, you can occasionally use stairs too

this is a really good challenge

Will this be getting an episode 2?

I will pay for a gym membership for you to use a treadmill. This is not a joke, DM me.

At the grocery part I see you bought Bang and ICE drinks honestly avoid bang its overcaffinated and not good for you, if you do need a caffeine bomb go for coffee or try an actual pre workout if really necessary as for the ICE those things gave me headaches when I used to drink them don't know why just an fyi. But other than that solid grocery trip, I've been cleaning up my diet lately and my biggest thing has been keep it simple just sticking to lean meats and veggies will keep you fuller longer and consuming less calories! with your weight loss good luck it's a hard trip but it's definitely worth it. If you want any workout plans or diet advice let me know I've been in similar shoes to you before.

Had no clue you were this overweight. But that fact you’ve basically made a promise to your audience makes me know you’re a determined to keep this up. Listen to the tips your fans are giving you, and keep up the good work!

So proud of you Chaotic ♥️ I'm so excited to see this whole series come together. It lowkey makes me nostalgic for when I played HG/SS w/ my brothers as kids and we used to take our walkers to school to catch stuff after recess lol. Keep it up and please don't get discouraged when the weight loss slows down. You can do this ♥️

Me waiting for part 2 💀

keep it up my guy! content is amazing and so are you!! also do you think you will share the spreadsheet you made for the challenge anytime? :D

Very proud of you! I just recently took control of my weight and am now down 35 pounds down! It’s a slow process but you will get there. Stay hard 🙏 Also, for some really good fitness tips, I recommend watching Greg doucette

Good luck man! I predict the hardest part of this challenge is going to be the willpower to keep it going! But we'll be here for yoy, cheering you on!

Quarantine made me realize how sedentary I've been as well. This is a great idea, and it's awesome that you're chronicling it.

I've never used my Pokewalker before. Had it since launch and it's still in plastic. It was apparantly one of the most accurate pedometers on the market

I like the idea for this video. Good job man, very creative.

Legend has it he's still doing laps in the living room.

Dude you’ve got this, major kudos to you for having the balls to start something like this and following through. Love your vids, altho i usually keep them as background noise while i play pokemon lol. Keep at it!

Is this actually in still in progress?

Honestly this sounds like an amazing journey! Cant wait to see where this goes so i subscribed good luck on reaching your goals. Its amazing how pokemon can be used to improve someones health id advice you to consider either investing in a treadmill or going for night walks to deal with the humitity problem, the issue with current setup is that it seriously stresses the joints going in circles which can lead to serious injuries.

I wonder if this series will ever come back. But it is still a good watch.

the fitness community 🤝 the pokemon community this video

So how's episode 2 going???

I check every day for a new episode of this

I watch your content pretty frequently and I always love. But this is one my favourites you’ve done. Super inspiring and I hope you can feel the support of all of us enjoying your content behind you!!! Keep up the amazing work Chaotic!

Youre awesome!! Super stoked for your vlogs and check ins in the future. You got this man!

Hey congrats on the weight loss journey, and the motivation to do so in the first place

When is part 2 coming out?

I will be watching this entire series I think it’s awesome can’t wait for the next video

Would love to see a continuation of this series!

Ah those 5 downvotes are from Australia

Is this particular challenge still being worked on? The concept was really neat!

Would love an update on this challenge randomly thought about it last night and wondering how you're doing

bring this back 😭 such a cool challenge!

hey man really hoping to talk to you about this play through

Time to whip out the ds and buy a new poketch

Is part 2 coming

Hey! I enjoyed this video a lot congratulations! since I've been trying to unlock all pokewalker courses since march I've got a few tips for you that you didn't mention on the video. I don't know if you already knew them, but they weren't mentioned so there I go! First of all to reduce the amount of steps in each course to get to group A you can send to the Pokéwalker a Pokémon that is of the "Special types" of that course (you can check them in serebii and see what types are for each course), and your steps will be reduced by 25% (that's very useful for cheking what A group pokemon you got on that stroll without walking that much) Second, you can unlock more courses via wireless Pokémon event (you have to connect to a wifi network and change some setings from the DS, there's a lot of videos explaining how to acces all the events in gen4 and 5 and there's no cheats/hacking involved!) There's a lot of cool pokemon on those courses and some of them are unobtainable in the game otherwise (There's a very cool Pikachu that knows Fly f.e.) I don't know how legit you'll consider this strat, but I think watching you catch and evolve a Torchic or a Beldum will make this challenge way cooler! So yeah I think that's all, keep going with this series and have fun! I will be following it without a doubt! (Sorry if I overused some words or I didn't explain myself very well but english is not my first language)

Good job with the first week of weight loss. Very interesting idea for a Pokémon challenge and I hope you see some good results with your diet and regular exercise. Just a bit of nutrition advice, make sure you eat enough non-starchy vegetables to get in enough fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Vegetables, avocadoes, nuts, and seeds will be your best fiber sources if your going strict keto.

Hello there, ChaoticMeatball. I'm from The United Kingdom and am just writing to tell you that this, for me at least was a very enjoyable video. I really enjoyed it as a new fan of Pokémon as well as starting off my own weight loss journey. I enjoyed the format and layout of this video and personally would like to see your shopping experience. (why you picked the food/options you did). From the perspective of a new Pokémon fan. I enjoyed seeing how the Pokéwalker works and plays and from the perspective of someone whom is trying to lose weight the science behind the diet you've chosen, is really fascinating. Don't give up hope my friend :)

Update! I need to know how you are doing lol

I love the video and that you’re willing to be open like this! When you get in better shape do you ever plan on doing jogging to get your steps rather than just walking? It might also be able to break the barrier if you hit a plateau of weight loss

15:30 scared the shit out of me with earphones

This challenge is badass! You totally blew me away with walking 15,000 steps a day, that is truly an impressive feat. I’m wishing you luck finding a place with lower humidity and maybe more space to do your leveling up and walking.

Mad respect for you doing this, it's not easy to be open about that. What matters as well is that you're doing the steps to better yourself! I've actually been trying to get on a healthier lifestyle myself, and have just started with it myself not long ago, at 260. In the time that I've been working toward it, I've already dropped 10 pounds! Honestly, I really look forward to seeing where this takes us both, and I definitely plan on checking in with future installments of this, sorta like an accountability partner sort of deal if you'd be fine with that. ps. fellow Florida person here, the heat and humidity sucks

Great idea man! I'll subscribe just for this series. I'm excited to see where this goes.

You don't need to exercise to lose weight very fast. Eating less calories and learning how to count them is the long term solution for keeping weight off. Eating proteins and totally eliminating carbs while drinking plenty of water is way simpler. Of course getting in shape is very beneficial, and the more muscles you have, the more calories you burn, however as your body loses weight your appetite will start increasing. Eating lean meats and fish with slow burning fibers like brown rice will keep your satiated. Also, detox from junk foods and sugar. Eating fruits like bananas, apples and kiwis if you get cravings will actually help when you start getting these cravings. As you eat less, your stomach also shrinks, making the first month a hungry one, but it does get better. Good luck, and remember weight loss is about the commitment. You can become lean and thin with few months, mostly with dietary changes. Its possible to feel full and happy, but remember to be strict on yourself, and not giving up when you fall for temptations. This battle is not won in a day, but over a period of time.
