    Honestly, I didn't expect Quilfish to do that well.

    Theory:jasmine seems depressed, the secret medicine is actually Zoloft that she gets from that black market guy , now regaining her confidence she’s ready to battle

    Qwilfish is low-key underrated. I've used it a few times on my team in Pokémon Crystal, especially since it learns sludge bomb and pin missle for coverage if necessary.

    When I found a Qwilfish, it was due to one of those calls from the fisherman. I fell in love with the chubby boy and kept them on my team all the way up to the E4, since I swapped it out for Ho-oh and Lugia. Hooray for childhood!

    Shocked with the results. Poison water with the hidden power type gives you just enough coverage to sweep through the game. Good job qwilifish u showed off your strength!

    Every time you pick up the Secret Potion I remember a time I dodged all of the trainers on the way to Cianwood City, went straight through the gym, picked up the Fly HM, and surfed back to Olivine without picking up the Secret Potion or using the Cianwood City PokeCenter 🙃

    Scott's Thoughts Qwilifish only run was the first Pokémon solo run I watched on TH-cam.
    Aaaaaaand now I've got like, 6 different solo runners on my feed, lol!

    Deliberately sought a Qwilfish when I found out about it and grew to love it. It was my Waterfall user and it turns out that was one of its better moves. It was never a consistent member but I loved to use it because it's so underutilised.

    I love watching these kinds of videos because they help me learn so much. I never considered Qwilfish anything more than a D or C tier Pokemon, but it's clearly more capable than I thought.

    Switching in Ballin real quick. If you get the reference you deserve a cookie.
    But anyways I love this weird spiky ball and glad to see it do well. It's always been a Mon with great positives but typically not a great chance to use them. So seeing it really use that chance here is gratifying.

    To be honest I didn't expect qwilfish to make such a good run! Hey squidgy, do you think you could do a run with Jolteon in a near future? I think he could be a great candidate for breaking kanga's record

    I think a water mine/fish is a good idea for a design. Honestly though I think it would have made more sense for it to be water/steel rather than poison. Would have made it stand out a bit more too.

    Hello Squidgy! A new subscriber here. Why dont you just use all of your rare candies on Red at first since it would save you some time? Looks like in gen 2 theyre most usefull in this one spesific battle. Is it cause you did it earlier to make pokemon more equal on solo runs or do you want to just try to finish the game with the earliest possible level? Cheers from Finland. Great content!

    • @Squidgy
      @Squidgy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Welcome along, Jussi!
      Firstly, thank you for subscribing, and secondly, thank you for your great question!
      I enjoy the build-up at Red. That's why we ban the use of Rare Candies until that specific battle, and then use them in the 3-3-4 pattern. Part of what makes a Pokémon good is having the ability to beat a full team of very high-leveled Pokémon without having to be close to their level, and on the spreadsheet, we also track the finishing level and amount of resets.
      I also find that the Red fight can be anticlimatic if we just use all 10 Rare Candies at once - we miss out on amazing pieces of luck where we defeat Red without a single Rare Candy being used, just because that Pokémon is SO strong or lucky!

    a really good time for a very understimated pokemon, i think that SB move deals more damage than super effective HP, 70x2 vs 90x1,5 => 140 vs 145, a little difference but still being more damage

    • @Squidgy
      @Squidgy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Honestly, at this point, we're min-maxing a little too much - they ostensibly do the same damage and in 99% of situations, they'd get the KO in the same number of hits.
