Making Pokémon's HARDEST Ribbon Easy 

I enjoyed working with you on this project! Hope it’s helpful for the community!

immediately seeing pokemon names "gaslight" and "gatekeep" is incredible

a true gaslight gatekeep girlboss moment

My god it’s so heartwarming to see the ribbon community come together to tackle this hill. This was a brutal slog for me to get through with my Latios, metagross and garchomp. This sounds SO much easier

some people just want to atch the world flourish

Well shit, I've been putting this ribbon off for a year. This might force me to continue Frosties' journey Update: Frosties met Toast and got the ribbon

There's so many things I love here. The gaslight gatekeep girlboss thing is hilarious, the fact that this strat ONLY works for human trainers due to AI players being goofy is just amazing, and the fact that this kinda is done to make it so the room is cleaned up as far as hacked trainers are concerned

This couldn't have come at a better time, I was literally just banging my head against the wall on this one. I was going to go for something involving trick room explosion Exeggutor followed up by Rhyperior but this seems... better.

Excited to find out how you made the Galar Battle Tower ribbon easier, I still don't know how you're expected to win against Leon and his unbeatable Charizard

Damn, I really wish I knew all this a couple months ago when I grinded to get this one. Genuinely, good on you guys for putting in this work to make the trek easier for people going for this themselves, because at least in my experience it was hell otherwise, even with this Gaslight Gatekeep Girlboss team. Although it is very funny looking at it now as I presumably actually encountered this exact team a couple times on my own trek up, based on the multiple Gengars and Skarmorys named Gaslight and Gatekeep. I even encountered Toast on the final set before getting the ribbon so that was neat. I do think the tower is pretty neat though, it was very cool seeing other people's ribbon masters when I eventually got to the last set. If anyone happens to come across a Shiny Heracross named Mushi on their way up, that's mine.

You guys are a god send. Even if people still have to climb up to that point, being at this transition point is so helpful. Wish this was a thing when i was ribbon hunting! Yall are awesome

y'all really are saints for making this work, THANK YOU SO MUCH! one additional note for the participants: it's probably the best to let your gengar and froslass only know the required moves. if gengar e.g. knows dark pulse, and you lose the speed tie to dark pulse, theres a chance that your own gengar flinches. also the ribbon masters should only either know moves that kill, or no moves that kill. BUT PLS NO THUNDERWAVE OR SIMILAR MOVES! ok, enough nitpicking... ENJOY YOUR NEW RIBBONS Y'ALL!!

W for someone about to start their ribbon master

babe wake up new sirtoastytoes just dropped

I struggled for days trying to get this ribbon, creating a strategy guide after finding a room without hacked pokemon and replaying it a dozen times until I could beat it with my team. You've made this really accessible for so many more people!

I'm not gonna lie, I massively respect that you've left the rest of the rooms alone, so as to minimize the impact of what it naturally came to be and what it will become

I went through a handful of battles in room 14 I think. I thankfully didn't find any wonder guard spirtiombs there. But I wouldn't be surprised if some have made their way in. If any of you ever find a trainer named "Dawn" with a shiny latios in the lead. Then come and say hello.

I was inspired by your videos and the rest of the pokemon ribbon community to start a ribbon master some months ago. Gen 3 was a ton of fun but I've been putting off finishing gen 4 specifically because of this ribbon. I even thought I might just skip it as something not worth the hassle of facing no-guard-sheer-cold machamps and whatnot. It seems that's not necessary anymore. Amazing work!

Been hunting a shiny heracross on colosseum. Been at it for almost a month and I only have 800 encounters. God I hope I get it before they discontinue pokemon bank.

Incredible that you guys went through the effort to do this. Ive been debating whether i even want to this ribbon because of the sheer pain in the ass it is but this makes is so much more manageable. Thank you so much!

I just transferred my ribbon master to B/W after giving up on the world ability ribbon 😭 time to start over

Oh this is neat to see! I'm doing a trio ribbon master run of a Dunsparce, Sudowoodo, and Vibrava (some of my favorite mons) and the wi-fi Ribbon was... interesting. I was fortunate enough to not see Wonder Tombs or Spore Ninjasks, but oh god I saw a good amount of Sheer Cold Machamps. Fortunately I seem to have ran into a bunch of ribbon master running teams (some with the ribbon master on the team) pushing out the hacked teams when I went through the tower a month ago. (Currently at gen 5 and prepping to make my team movie stars). This movement is very nice to see to make this ribbon far less aggravating. The Wi-Fi tower is such a cool idea marred by the lack of hack checks. All the legit teams I ran across were interesting experiences with surely some kind of story behind them to tell. But the moment I ran into a hacked team the experience went down the gutter. Thank god online has hack checks to block the outright illegal stuff.

I think I might finally try and do a ribbon challenge. Sort of lowkey potentially running out of time, depending on how soon after 3ds online service shutdown pokébank gets shut down too. It might take years, but potentially only few months. Just gotta pick a suitable pokémon in Gen 3 and go for it. Maybe if I manage to find a good shiny I could do it on that. I am not too worried about the pokémon's availability in switch games though. I'd be perfectly happy having all the available ribbons up to sun/moon. But yeah, the difficulty of getting this particular ribbon is one of the reasons I've been putting it off.

Incredible! You guys are the best! Thank you so much for what you are doing for the community!

I've always put off trying for a full Ribbon Master because of this one - I guess I no longer have an excuse! This is fantastic work by you guys, thank you so much

This is insanely cool! Love the “if you can’t beat em, join em” mentality for the online battle tower 😅 genius moves!

This is truly great of you to organise. We're in a golden age of ribbons while this keeps up

I don't even do ribbon collecting yet this type of helpful content for the community is so awesome to see!

Absolutely outstanding. I love this community so much

That's awesome that a floors been claimed! My WA Ribbon wasn't that bad, but it was mostly due to running into the discord team so much anyways. If you get unlucky and face a different team with attacking moves, it is worth noting that you a few tries before the derank, and you can practice without risking it, allowing you to basically plan out the floor move by move. I actually liked this part for that reason, it felt like planning out a nuzlocke compared to hoping I didnt roll a weavile in the proper sinnoh battle tower 😅(I fought after all the wonderguard tombs got cleaned though, such a difference maker)

Watched the whole thing just to stop when i saw all the comments were recent. "Wow this is NEW." I just found about about the ribbon hunting community today and was debating giving it a try so this is great news. Thank you everyone!

Recently started the ribbon master journey, thank you for your hard work because I have been DREADING this ribbon

Was just starting my own ribbon challenge and was dreading this bit, thank you so much for helping out plebs like us 🙏

Thank you both for doing this! Last week I started RNG’ing in gen 3 for these to make this team, and only earlier today I finished just in time for this video to appear lol. Luckily I watched your streams talking about the move and EV changes so I’m good to go!

Thank you- about to start the Sinnoh leg of my ribbon quest, and I’ve been dreading this ribbon. This’ll make things so much less painful!

still struggling with the emerald battle tower but this video is an insane help for gen 4 and i am so thankful to you guys as i was so fearful of this ribbon!!

This may explain why it seemed easy for me early this week when going for this ribbon for the first time and couldn’t fine anything about it either haha There may be a trainer name Z with a Alakazam timid with max speed and max speed gengar with sucker punch sorry

I’m just trying to get the battle memory ribbon before the Bank shutdown so this actually seems like an amazing option for getting that! Thanks for putting this together!

thanks for looking out for the community! let's play nice in room 2, everyone

The Pokémon community really is crazy, not only did they manage to get servers going for the online and reinstated the Wi-Fi Tower, they created strategies to beat that Tower

I can't wait to try for this ribbon in the far future, hopefully with a shiny shadow metagross lol

The Ribbon Community is incredible.

Wow this is great! I wasn't even going to attempt this ribbon but I think I'll give it a shot now, much appreciated!

thank you!!!! i've just started my ribbon master journey and i'm about to move to gen 4, and this is going to be a HUGE boon!

Room 2?! Absolute genius! I wish I could go back to pick up this ribbon.

I love this community so much.

This ribbon crushed me and I stopped the ribbon challenge cause of it for a long time now. This gives me hope.

Watching this 22 hours after it was posted and 15 hours after using this very strategy not knowing the video was out, thank you Venty! And thank you Toasty for another great ribbons video 👌🏻

I love it when a community can come together like this.

Oddly, I found this one easy. The multi battle (with AI partner) is the one I struggle with.

Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss??? Amazing. X''D I love it!

The Ribbon Community is incredible. I recently got a Shiny Piloswine in Colo to do some Ribbon Mastery of my own & this is gonna help make that much more feasible.

Sir, you are a gentleman, a scholar and, quite possibly, da real MVP.

Guess I'm trying this again. Maybe I'll finally find the motivation to finish the ai multi ribbon with this out of the way.

Im so glad hypertraining and mints are a thing now. Breeding and ev training for competitive was a hassle back then. It takes an entire week pr so just to build one competitive Pokemon. Now it only takes 10 minutes to build an entire competitive team so long as you have all the resources.

This is so sweet. I got excited to try it out for when I find my shiny dialga in diamond but then I remembered... dialga cant get the battle tower ribbons 😅

Now we just need a way to cheese the master rank ribbon. It may be possible to do it in Sword and Sheild since the ranked servers are dead. Maybe a bot of some kind could be set up.

Some goblin’s gonna use beat up weavile and start the arms race 👀

After a day of grinding I've successfully claimed my World Ability Ribbon, I cannot express enough my gratitude to you. I would have never be able to get it without this video, thank you so much for this !! Say HI! to SHINE my Scizor and I'd like to say Hi to the pretty RM"s i've met on my way so congrats to Toast, Bro, Limitless and Latinas

the best way to make this ribbon easy is to not do it at all. the gen 4 tower is enough of a slog as is no but really, if its not just gengar froslass teams then im excited to see (the video hasnt premiered yet as of posting)

Legendary. Thank you guys SO much.

Thanks, now its gonna be easier to get all the ribbons i can get on my shiny Magikarp

Ahhh, just finished my run, that was almost relaxing. Everyone obviously playing nice with their RM 3rd slot, other than a Slowpoke in Room 4 that didn't know whether to boost it's stats or attack with surf. Thankfully I taunted it into attacking and going for the kill before I ran out of Destiny Bond PP, but compared to the brute force of everyone else it was a tricky little bugger to read! Thanks again for setting this up and to everyone else for following the "rules"

i think this has given me the confidence to actually try a old gen ribbon challenge once im done getting Ribbon master on Alcreamie. Thank you for gods work!

Well well looks like that scizor of yours is going back to kalos next year for more ribbons 🎀

Gaslight gatekeep girlbossing your way through the battle tower !! This is a great video! Always glad to see that sizcor(? Spelling?)

whoever has the togekiss rm named percy: u a bword for letting it use thunderwave

Thank youuuu time to give my safari shiny the ribbon he deserves

before the wifi tower removed all wonder guard spiritombs i was determined to beat all them with foresight dynamic punch machamps to get to rank 5 then to rank 10 since then ive been doing nearly all rooms in rank 10

The both of you are the spearhead of the ribbon master journey

I'm stalling again on my journey, only it's the AI partner ribbon that's put me off as seemingly everyone has thunder punch & Ice punch to counter me... It's driven me mad I do have the perfect Gengar ready to go for this though, getting the others should be easy so I might just have a crack at this in the meantime to find some motivation to finally get out of Gen IV (various set backs all the way from 2020 so far...) Thanks for creating the opportunity!

This is such a cool thing for you to do, thanks for putting it together!!

Doing Arceus's work with this

You're an absolute hero thank you!!!

This helps out a lot! I recently asked about this ribbon specifically, and what was the best team for it.

WOW ! Awesome !! I love your content man, you've been so informative / helpful / motivating thank you. I'm also mastering a Shadow Scizor, I'm lacking time and motivation but listen, it's 7AM in France now, I'm starting from scratch , I'm gonna catch some Gastly and build the team and I come back at the end of the day to this comment to let you know :)

Doing Arceus’ work here, thank you for both of y’all’s work in figuring this out! 07 07 07

Regigigas with Huge Power and Spiritomb with Wonder Guard was literally me during my ribbon challenge last year. Wanted to beat fire with fire, sorry everyone😂

Just finished my ribbon challenge in October. Told myself I’d never do it again. And then you drop this?!

I am looking forward to when only room 10 is full of other teams.

Massive thanks! I've been bashing my head against this for a couple of weeks and was just about to give up! Say hello to Malachite for me if you see him!

OH MY GOSH! Thank-you for this! ;w;

Incredible and helpful thank you so much!

This actually makes me consider trying this ribbon.

Anyone else here losing their minds trying to get a 31 speed IV Gastly? Swear I’ve been through 100 no luck yet. If it never uses fake out is max speed absolutely required? Don’t want to mess up your hard work

He born he died he risen he is coming back to save you

just in time, i just finished everything in gen 3 :D

Huh, this is good timing, as I'm working on a couple RMs in Gen 4 right now (after I recently figured out how I could get the ribbons I was missing out on in Gen 3 with emulators, and then easily trade them back to real cartridges in Gen 4). I was just going to skip this ribbon, but maybe this makes it more feasible. Though I'm wondering if I'll need to jump on this while I can, before everyone else does and the supposedly always shifting meta of this ribbon changes (since people's teams get automatically uploaded to the fan servers when you do this, right?).

"easy". Guys, I think I hit a wall there.

Thanks for your efforts^^ What would happen if you lose a match because it locks you out of a specific room if I remember correctly?

thank you so much for making this i just have one question my ribbion master has dark void as its only move its a Smeargle and it will have lagging tail on it did you want me to change moves or will it be ok using it

Do you happen to have a tutorial on how to connect to the Wifi Tower? I know there is some weird stuff you have to do for it.

There's a guy leading with a Metagross with bullet punch in rank 5 so be careful

i grinded this disgusting thing, and i regret every single minute i spend on this ( since i'm using emulators and i cloned a Bunch of my Shiny sneasels from Colosseum to all of them to have all ribbons xD )

Will this work in any Battle Tower that uses singles? (I know it won't work in Doubles as you need four Pokemon.) If so, it would make for an easy ribbon catch for those annoying battle tower ribbons.

This is awesome!

I really have problems with the connection to poke classic, the first try I connect and downloaded a room with no problems, but one week later, after i see this video and make a gengar/froslass for the room now i can't connect to the server, I try with 2 cellphone (both hotspot with no password) but nothing works for me, it's weird, because the first try works excellent but now i see error 52101 and mentioned that the wifi servers are discontinued, I try with both telephones and with a diamond and a HG game but not work in anyone

I wonder if this team is good for the frontier in general

omg toast video!!!

What is the hardest ribbon to obtain?
