The fact that one of the weakest pokemon stats wise is still not F teir or lower shows how much movesets can really make or break it. Sentret really did have a lot of good versatility despite no oomph to back it up as much as it should.

Venomoth Fact #17: One day Venomoth swooped down and saw Sentret. Then Venomoth saw Sentret's speed stat. Finally Venomoth went over and said "Boy, you get your whoopy cushion shaped body on the treadmill or SO HELP ME" which is the canonical reason as to why Sentret gains a huge 70 point boost to speed when evolving.

@EHShinobi 24 дня назад

That's why they set lookouts according to dex

@andreapareti324 24 дня назад

Yes! I love this little guy! I've always felt that Sentret's Speed was far too low for what its design and inspiration are: it's a small, furry sentinel that stays alert and is quick to go back to its nest once it spots peril! Why does it only have 20 Base Speed?! Its evolution jumps up to 90, fgs, and it's not that different of a design!! I would have personally put its Base Speed at 60 or 65, which would have also bumped up its BST to match Rattata's: while Raticate and Furret have very comparable BSTs (413 and 415, respectively, so Furret's is technically slightly higher!), Sentret sits at 215 while Rattata is at 253 (with more optimized stats to boot!). With + 40 or +45 Speed, Sentret would have gotten to 255 or 260, respectively, which also would have made for a more interesting in-game choice where the Sentret line is still fast, bulkier but weaker while the Rattata line is more all-out damage. As is, there's basically no reason to use Sentret, since it's rarer and far less performant than Rattata, which is sad.

@JAN2MARS 24 дня назад

You would’ve lost a hell of a lot less in the early game if you used Quick Attack. You didn’t need luck, just less button mashing.

@ace94d 24 дня назад

Two thoughts I have when watching this: 1. Could completing Chuck earlier be done if you had the Pink Bow equipped? I noticed you had the Mint Berry equipped when you accidentally went to fight Chuck and I am wondering if his Poliwrath would turn it into a 2HKO and thus make the luck reasonable. 2. Could ThunderPunch be used against the Red Gyarados to make it a little easier? The punches are purchasable so no big deal to replace and then re-teach Fire Punch, and if it turns the Red Gyarados into a more consistent KO it might reduce potential resets. Dunno if you'd be up for answering, nice video. Sentret managing to get just below 1:50 is pretty good!

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 22 дня назад

1. In the second run I do 2HKO the Poliwrath. It will OHKO if it crits. For more detail: Lv38 gives a 70.5% chance to 2HKO. Lv39 84%. Lv40 is always a 2HKO. Levelling that high just needs a lot of grinding in Johto. So Pryce and Rocket Hideout is the best way to accomplish both goals. 2. We don't have damage calcs against wild Pokemon in the software so I had to manually calculate it after scrubbing back to the Gyarados in the replay to check it's exact stats. I also resumed from replay and tried it with ThunderPunch. It does around 65%-75% damage, so it doesn't solve the Gyarados as cleanly as it seems it might.

@ace94d 22 дня назад

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Thanks for the reply! It does seem like ThunderPunch might be worth it since in the video without it is at least sometimes a 3HKO and not a 2HKO, but I dunno if it messes up stuff elsewhere with money. Thanks for the Poliwrath calcs!

@ZealousPawn 22 дня назад

People underestimate how much time inventory management takes. Picking up the TM and teaching the move takes longer than an extra attack in battle, so it’s really only worth it if it’s useful in multiple battles or prevents a reset

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 22 дня назад

Yeah, teaching TMs in very costly in terms of time. It needs to save a lot of time or add significant consistency.

@NativeGolfer10 24 дня назад

Wouldn’t Thunder Punch have more utility with Sentret being weaker? It takes care of the resets against the red Gyrados and gives you the potential to paralyze Chuck, increasing the odds you luck through there while not restricting your moves since you can buy as many as you need. As always, love your videos Scott. I will say things appeared a little rushed with Sentret’s video but I know you’re on one heck of a time crunch with the delays from the first of the year and then getting a video out this week with the delays to the Mother’s Day video you planned out. I hope you’re doing ok buddy and you have a Happy Mother’s Day! ❤

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 22 дня назад

It doesn't KO the Gyarados. Roughly 65% - 75% damage. I just tested it after reading another comment.

@NativeGolfer10 22 дня назад

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon That’s good to know. I just assumed it would. Even with the lack of a KO, a two hit that would prevent resets from the Gyrados right? Maybe using Magnet for Thunde Punch or Pink Bow with Quick Attack with can be on its moveset for priority if Gyrados will KO with 2 thrashes? It won’t make a large difference but maybe it’s a bit more consistent and doesn’t change that much from your current route. If nothing else, maybe that helps with some of the frustration around Sentret being such a weak first stage. You are the Pokémon master and I enjoy seeing your mind work Scott.

@AnyThingWorx 22 дня назад

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon if that’s what you think is superior, then by all means, it’s hard to disagree with your logic. I will say that if everybody does hate it, though… then maybe it’s not the best decision? At the very least, pair it with the opponents Pokémon, so that their stat order matches the Pokémon being used. It makes for better consistency and makes the change less jarring. Just my personal opinion, though.

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 22 дня назад

I have another option, which is to arrange them like the current Pokemon games. In a hexagram. Hp top, Atk and SpA in a row, and Def and SpD in a row, with Spe at the bottom. I haven't done this yet because it creates a few other graphic design issues and it will require major work to restructure my programs. But that is probably where we will end up in 1-2 years.

At 13:57 you would have lived the extra curse even without levelling, before Sentret was taking 19 per turn and had 40 HP, after the level it was taking 20 per turn and had 43. Since it is percentage based on the remaining health I am not sure curse even has a range to kill you after a level up, since your max health always increases by the same amount as your actual health.

Correct. I am not consistent between generations. Marowak skip is grand fathered forward for consistency. I would not do it if I started playing generation 1 tomorrow.

Is Dig still useful after Morty? It feels like Thunderpunch would work better in that slot so Gyarados isn't such a slog. I also wonder if it'd do more to Poliwrath in any meaningful way. Great run overall, Sentret doesn't have much stats but a drool-worthy movepool.

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 18 дней назад

That’s worth considering. It is to escape caves without ropes, but that isn’t a reason to keep it over a move that would help in battles. I’ll think and experiment with this more in the future.

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 18 дней назад

One reason to keep it is the rival’s Magneton in Victory road, the two rocket scientists’ magnemites, and Jasmine. Obviously if Fire Punch is available then Dig doesn’t offer much in terms of coverage.

I think i basically always used furret when i did a new game. Since it has cut and surf and decent moves. I am pretty sure zigzagoons evolution was better though.

I mean linoon is among the strongest early normal types so not really a fair comparison lol

@chaosryans 25 дней назад

@@nekogaming5300 i mean for easy hm stuff. Linoon could learn cut, strength, surf, and rocksmash. Bibarell as an early 2 form normal type gets the most I think.

@@chaosryans bibarel might have more coverage in hms but linoone would mollywop a bibarel any day lmao linoone just has more use throughout the games it’s in and stays relevant theoughout the whole game compared to bibarel which gets outclassed fairly early on

Is there a move reminder in Gen 2? I feel curse and quick attack might be a good late game strategy

@damdu28380 22 дня назад

Great video and gameplay as always. There is just something bugging me with your UI, the order of the stats are different for your pokemon and the omputer's. Yours is HP/Atk/Def/Spe/SpA/SpD and the Computer's is HP/Atk/Def/SpA/SpD/Spe, so the Speed stats is not in the same place, it through me off multiple time in the video

@ScottsThoughtsPokemon 22 дня назад

Yeah, this is a new change. It’ll take time for people to get used to it

@llSuperSnivyll 24 дня назад

I'll be honest. With Sentret (and especially Furret)'s physical appearance, I'd have never thought that Speed would be its lowest stat. BTW, I don't get why you didn't use Quick Attack at all during the Rival 2 fight in the first run. At the end it didn't make any difference, but it could have made fights a lot less close.

I have never quite got why sentret, a squirrel-sugar glider-rabbit thing, evolves into a furret, a ferret.
