Scott is a GENIUS for giving the AMAZING move hypnosis a shot - its 60% accuracy is a coin flip in YOUR favour!! Way to go Scott :)

Agree that FRLG is where GameFreak cut their teeth on remakes, deciding what should stay accurate and what should change. The lack of berry growing probably was because they decided not to implement any kind of time system, leaving RBY and FRLG the only ones with absolutely no time mechanics. They did at least rebalance Pickup to compensate by replacing most of the item drop list with practical in game berries, which I never realized as a kid. That’s at least better than Gen 5 locking berries behind a now dead flash game on the Pokemon website.

I know these are first playthroughs, but there was something pretty funny about seeing a Pokemon with Insomnia holding a Chesto Berry against the champion fight. Even with the reliance on Meditate aside, you did very well with Hypno and I wonder how quickly it'll be able to beat the game with optimization.

@paulnewton2284 9 месяцев назад

I've found Hypno to be a pretty solid team member in casual playthroughs of FRLG, since its high Sp. Defense, Psychic resistance, and access to Shadow Ball with a serviceable Attack stat make it a great Alakazam check. I'm not surprised to see it do well here.

@kode-man23 9 месяцев назад

Does anyone else feel a noticeable placebo effect by the fact that Hypnosis is 60%? For whatever reason I see 60% and I decide that I can live with that. But then when I see Sing at 55% I'm like, "ew get out of here with that trash." They are only 5% different in accuracy 😅

@SmashMath151 9 месяцев назад

6:21 Nice things in the comments! Joking aside, Hypnosis is really good in theory, especially in combination with setup moves. Finding the spots where it's worth the 60% accuracy, if there are enough to justify the moveslot, is a challenge that's much easier when optimizing for a 2nd playthrough. Hypno did quite well overall despite it's middling Sp. Atk and Speed! I wonder how the Abra line would compare. My guess is that it would be quite close since Abra has to Struggle train to 16, but Kadabra should sweep most of the game from there.

@Thrano 9 месяцев назад

I've been playing FRLG for the first time recently (skipped the GBA games when growing up) and it's so good. Despite not having played Red in at least 18 years, I instinctly recognized the lines from random trainers and could tell what Pokemon they'd send out. Those games are the best kind of remake bar none. Edit: Wdym Nidorino ugly? smh

6:28 It's a good first step for you to admit that you "Can't stop using sleep strategies whenever you want".

I forsee you going nuts when it's time to do a run with a Spore user like Shroomish XD

Theory: Giovanni doesn't have a rhydon because he is not a real trainer, he's a rich guy that can afford his crazy team. Persian - payday Kangaskhan - rare safari Nido's - moon rocks are presumed to be rare and requires little training Rhyhorn itself is rare but requires a lot of training, which Giovanni won't do but blue will And dugtrio is for running away from the police

About the reimagining instead of remake... In Golbat's case, it makes sense. Most golbats we see are used by Team Rocket. They wouldn't treat their Golbats well and they wouldn't evolve. It would be interesting to keep that evolution in this game.

@justinsims655 9 месяцев назад

I understand using Hypnosis for the high risk/high reward combo. I understand neglecting it for the low risk/low reward combo. What I don't get is starting out with Hypnosis, then switching to attacks after it fails. Failing doesn't constitute new info, since you already know the probability, so it can only be a shift in risk preference.

@ironbru1986 9 месяцев назад

I think when you start doing optimised second playthoughs that Hypno could possibly do a run very close to an hour, if not under an hour, in FireRed but only if it starts as a Hypno as it seems like it is quite the beast in this game. Starting as a Drowzee it seems like under an hour and 10 minutes is going to be quite easy for it to do.

@Nikolaj11 9 месяцев назад

Just commenting to add on your reasoning to evolve the mon manually: I am a viewer who does not watch any of the non-evovled playthroughs, as I find them uninteresting. I like your videos with either fully evolved or evolving-through-normal-play because, besides the entertainment, they provide actual useful data for if and when I ever play the games myself, which I do every once in a while. I'm never going to play any of the games without evolving, so watching how unevovled Pokémon perform outside of the early game is not at all informative to me.

Complains the game focuses too much to be as close to a original remake as possible, but skips over nearly all of the new content lol Personally to make these series more set apart from the yellow series, it would be interesting to treat the final battle as the rematches of the elite four after the post game. I mean he does it for emerald :/
