I 100%ed Shadows of Almia Purely for Wrist Strength (Pokémon Ranger) 

Recording that intro gassed me out inexplicably, I mistakenly said "Pokémon Rangers" instead of "Pokémon Ranger". The audacity. Hope the lines didn't disrupt the video experience too much!

This game had NO RIGHT to be this good. A perfect self-insert character with a story that really let's you feel a sense of personal accomplishment as you rise from a lowly schoolchild to the hero of Almia. I think it had a profound impact on me. I just gave it a shout-out in a mock college application essay.

Pokemon Ranger, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, and Pokemon Conquest were the best parts of my childhood. I hope that there is a way for all of these games can make a comeback with a future Nintendo Console

I absolutely loved this game when i was a kid. I remember doing the drapion boss fight on the plane and my dad asking why i was doing circles on my screen so fast and suggesting that i should relax haha.

I played through this game at least three times when was a kid. All of my DS have permanent circles scratched into them 😂❤️ Now I want to play it again!

"I have the energy of a 40 year old thinking about retirement" is such a relatable quote and I'm not even close to 40...

_Your lax, relaxed tone is what I subscribed for. You're the Orange Cassidy of Poketubers and I adore it._ 👌

This game was so insanely good, seeing content about it makes me so happy

Sometimes I wonder what made my parents even buy this game for me. I guess they just saw Pokémon in the title and bought it. They had no idea how much I would love this game

This game together with Guardian Signs had a big impact on my childhood. Thanks for playing the game so that I could experience it again

This was such an underrated game, thank you for giving it the time it deserves! This was a great trip down memory lane

Kincaid's Drapion was such a pain to me when I was a kid, I remember almost getting it before it kept spamming the dumb poison mist move and resetting it's hp to zero. PAIN Luckly I did beat this, ONLY TO FIND OUT THERE'S A HADER VERSION OF THIS FIGHT, WHHHYYYYYY??????!?? i beat that too, but after many tries and more PAIN.

I did a 100% a few years ago (beat story, all missions and fill browser). Fwiw there's a Celebi you can catch as a reward for clearing all missions

Man, one of the few games I consistently and repeatedly have 100%ed over the years. Great game

This game is pure nostalgia for me when i was a teen man. Good stuff.

I actually replayed the game a few hours ago. Brings back so many memories! This was the first ever game that I fully completed the story of, so it is held dear to my heart. You have no idea how much I want to readapt this specific game as a comic or something, solely so I can make it more popular (and also I want more appreciation for Sven and add more depth to the sinis trio since their only traits are woman with pink sauce hair, femboy elsa, and gruff brute kidnapper!) Would absolutely recommend!

last year i played Almia for the first time ever and I'm glad to see someone else had as much as me filling out the browser 😭♥️

ugh, going from that peppy insane upbeat opening to that downbeat slow voice… it is perfect. thank you.

Ranger series is so fun! I’d love to see you 100% Guardian Signs, where you have to beat like 50 timed missions meant for 2-4 players, with a level-up system to grind, and a dead online service to match :3

Im so glad that someone is playing this game! Genuinely my favorite Pokémon ranger game. So underrated

The first game did in fact reck my touch screen. It was also probably the best structured of the Pokémon Ranger games once you got through the early game.

This was my first owned Pokemon game as a kid, and I remember within the span of 2 months I casually 100%ed the game 3 separate times

Wow this game is so nostalgic to me. Good work man!

Thank you for reminding me I hated those Gligar trying to stab you to death causing you to fall off the vines most annoying part of that area

This was the FIRST EVER pokemon game i ever played. I chose pachirisu and i played it at such a young age that naturally pachirisu is my favorite pokmeon even now :-) this video gave me so many good memories! Id like to replay it someday

This game was one of the first games I ever played when I got my 3DS I love it so much :') I've watched your Pokemon conquest vids and I'm really happy to see you do Shadows of Almia! Also you can beat Keith in the bidoof competiton lol

Love your chill narration and your play throughs of some Pokémon deep cuts. Keep up the good work!

11:26 this...boss....fight toke me LITERAL MONTHS to beat and many many wrist cramps

SUCH a good game. I miss this era of Pokemon spin-offs. Great video!

Rangers of almia is easily one of the best pokemon games we’ve ever had, hippoptas trivializes the post game almost completely aside from the flying catches. Could of probably gotten a s on regiggas if you used hippoptas instead of porygon-z

Also loved how the final three Pokémon in the arena were a callback to the original game

After I played this game when it came out in elementary school I had a teacher named Ms. Kincaid in middle school two years later who I once heard say “no running in the hallways” and I knew we had come full circle

One of my favorite games of all time! I really wish I didn’t lose my copy when I was younger but I did get the Manaphy egg and stuff from it. I also don’t have the Manaphy anymore due to my copy of SoulSilver not working anymore, but the game was a blast!

Yet another great video! Man I love these games, Pokémon Rangers always makes me so nostalgic, I used to rush through the same 3 games over and over, replaying the whole saga non-stop at summer vacation as a kid 🥲

I remember when capturing Darkrai I left a scratch on the final loop. It was such an amazing game and I will never forget it.

This is one of my favorite games of all time, so finding this video in my recommended was such a treat! Excited to watch this!

My, the memories coming like a torrential flood. Thanks dude.

I love this game. It was my first Pokemon game and it will forever be my childhood.

to this day, this is my absolute favorite game out of anything i’ve ever played on any console. i’ve played it thru like over 50 times (srsly) and i never get sick of it. it’s literally pure perfection from start to end. i absolutely adore it

this was my favourite game for me as a kid :) it is still in my top 3, nostalgia holds a tight grip

my favourite type of podcast 10/10 keep going dude you are doing right :D

THE OUTDOOR CLASS!!! not when crawford goes, but when YOU the PLAYER goes is like the BEST part of the games causal parts IMO damn now i wanna boot this game up............... and im gonna because i can :D thanks Indutro, now to find my stylus to destroy my touch screen

Guardian Signs is my 🐐 so I'm super excited for that game! Awesome video and new subscriber gained 👌

I can’t watch this now but all I can say is good luck lmao. Been there done that never again. I gave up on guardian signs

Pleaaaase I love how you narrate your vids, I cringe at the overly energetic voiceover on other game channels. You have an amazing vibe :) happy to see another vid from you!

The dialga and palkia missions were so sick too

I had forgotten about playing this game as a little kid, but remember it when I see it, so weird. Really cool little game

Such an underrated game. Gotta do Guardians signs next

Touch the Bidoof.

This game is amazing, ranger 1 is classic but this game blows it out of the water. I hope you give guardian signs a chance, I’ve never seen good coverage of that game

I love this game, my favorite pokemon spin off and maybe my favorite pokemon game ever

Such a lovely intro 😊

This was such a good game back in the day

I haven't watched your videos in months and I thought you had a rebranding for a second there lol

Always enjoy your content

As a child the rampardos quest had me stuck like crazy

Lmao the drapion was hell when i was a kid😹

bro your voice is so soothing its like asmr mixed with a video to pay attention to

Time to fiddle with the keyboard 😂

I loved playing this game when I was young! But one silly thing I thought was when your stylus broke, you'd have to retake ranger school for some reason xD

People who are complaining about mashing "a" in the main series have never played this game...

I think the downloadable palkia mission was the best one in the game

I had the itch to play this game again, playing with mouse and keyboard kept me from it, love to randomly see someone like me, will watch this with some popcorn TY

Happy this got so many views, I just finished replaying the game. So many good memories

I always thought your voice was kinda boring for long videos but dear god that energy at the start?!?! Nah man that's not you, you were right keep doing what you always did i love the chill voice

when i played this game as a kid I could never get past the drapion fight it was so hard for me. I eventually returned the game cause I couldn't get past that part and I regret that I did it

I just ordered a used DS and the first Pokémon ranger online bc I was so nostalgic for it, it was my first game for the DS I got them together in like 2006 and I loved it so much. I played all 3 but obviously sold all that shit when I became a teenager but now that I’m in my mid 20s I’m yearning to replay them lmao

Yoooo I love shadows of almia!

Unironically my favorite Pokemon game ever. This was the first game i ever finished

waited till my 100% run of this game was done, but im back to rewatch this so....yea

That fucking drapion....

one of my favorite pokemon games

I always wanted to play this game when I was a young lad.

LOL I was so confused when i heard the intro, i was like did i click the right video? 🤨

28:43 i cheesed this fight with steel-assist steel assist pauses the enemy, which makes them unable to attack the shockwave it does with each step counts as an attack, loop a bunch to charge up the ball, then hit it, and if you've done every quest, then very likely your assist will last like 45 seconds

Me and my younger brother loved this game!

I never got past the Ramparts as a kid lol

The Pokémon ranger games were peak Pokémon we need new ones

I’m not gonna lie, I thought I clicked on the wrong video during that intro and had to double take

Knew you’d cover it

Honesly my favorite pokemon game

Dude even your "RU-vid voice" at the beginning gives off retirement vibes😂

BRO. The reason I'm watching this right now is because I'm home from work after I sprained my wrist replaying the game. P.S. My circles are tighter than yours are, nerd!

This game was the best Ranger game by far

It’s a shame you couldn’t do the DLC quests. One of my favorites was Shaymin. 😊

Love this game

2 things I like from this game. 1. Instead of doing specific number of loops that reverts back to 0 if you fail, Pokemon have HP bars now. Its so dumb that you cant keep the progress of your loops in the previous game. That Eruption spam from Entei was ridiculous. 2. Pokemon dont hide offscreen anymore. Seriously, who in the game devs thought it was a good idea to allow Pokemon to hide off screen in a game where youre supposed to loop at? I cant wait for your Guardian signs video. I remember being a weeb feeling as if I am summoning Pokemon like Naruto characters summon their animals ninjas.

I wish that that they would make a Pokémon Ranger collection and make a new game for the series

I understand your *ehm* DS is a little finicky so I assume you were using external hardware. Please tell me you used a drawing tablet and not a mouse. I gave myself carpal tunnel grinding spins on osu.

underrated

what is the music playing at 9:38

Playing through Guardian Signs right now, looking forward to your next video on it. Great work

How do you use the stylus on the PC

favorite pokémon vids, if ur looking for an interesting gen 5 play through blaze black 2 redux is super fun

are u gonna do the next game.. please say yes

awesome

Where can I buy it?

This game was 100 times better than ranger 1

If you ask me, shieldon is the best partner in this game, hands down
