The Stone Staredown is the most lore-intensive part of the Delta Episode, and it's a shame that people who take the time to read the dialogue might miss it because they're too slow to mash through the textboxes
@AbsolBlogsPokemon It's truly a once in a life time experience. I can only hope that one day we might grow as a society to be lightning fast readers and mashers. 😔
Anyone else really bothered by the fact that the contest reward is a Lucarionite instead of Altarianite??? I mean COME ON! The champion lady literally uses Mega Altaria and its pretty much the only time it appears. :/
I guess because they wanted to have all the new oras megas easily accessible as they were one of the main selling points of the game. If mega altaria was in xy, it would definitely be the reward for the contest because players would have already had a chance to use it in xy.
Im fine with it. I'd rather have Mega Altaria during the story than Mega Lucario, especially because Lucario needs to be traded over anyway while Altaria is a Hoenn native. Its still a bs requirement though.
I won't lie, the fact that the hardest to get mega stone in this speedrun is also the mega stone you are just given for going through the story in X and Y is pretty funny
As someone who spent a very tedious *MONTH* getting the Garchompite even after finding 10 high rank bases to visit daily I was very interested to see how this run only added 4 hours...the answer was to simply not be insane
I got the Garchompite and it was a miserable experience. I had to add people on GameFAQs. And even then, the thread we made had to filter out people who didn't want to engage in the process to output the maximum amount of flags for everyone.
I love Pokemon Contests! Especially in the Anime. They were great! If I was in the Pokemon world I'd want to be a Top Coordinator so back when ORAS was released I was SO excited to finally be able to do Contests and I decided I was going to win Master Rank in all five categories to prove that I actually could become a Top Coordinator if I was in the Pokemon world and I also decided I wasn't going to use Cosplay Pikachu at all because that seemed like cheesing and also because a real Coordinator in the Pokemon world would have an actual team so I decided to beat every Contest with a different Pokemon who were my Contest Team. They were: Umbreon for Clever, Mightyena for Tough, Sceptile for Cool, Latias for Beauty and Lopunny for Cute. I'm really happy that I proved to myself that I could become a Top Coordinator. Mastering Pokeblocks, Perfecting my Move combinations and really showing my Pokemon off the best they can be, just like the Anime. Also, thanks to anyone who bothered to read this.
bro the times when may used ice type moves in her contests were so stunning to watch. the contests were really the coolest parts of the gen 3 and 4 animes.
Lets go, loved hearing you talk about the contests and secret bases in this video. I have over 1000 flags and have beaten Lisia on all modes. Oras is my favourite pokémon games
@@CatholicCarlismEnjoyer I don't know how it goes in English, but in Spanish (mind you this is 2 girls inside a room key locked), the girl on the right stutters and says something like "O-oh well, but if I had locked the door. I was teaching this lass how hard a trainer's life is." (while the other girl says "Ow." It's implied that these 2 students wheren't just... Battling.
@@CatholicCarlismEnjoyer I just checked, and the other girl says "...Blush..." in the English version, is not too different, I just think it's more explicit in Spanish.
Would be an interesting new category if you also had to use each megastone at least once. So throughout the whole run you'd also need to pick up and train 44 different pokemon.
13:30 that “mysterious green glow” is coming from the meteorite Maxie gave you on mt.chimney for whatever reason, and has been changing throughout the game, the glow isn’t quite coming from the shard zinnia gave you
I remember really not liking Zinnia when I played ORAS for the first time because she acts like a complete menace, refuses to actually explain herself, and then the story goes "Oh yeah she was right all the time so she's not an asshole" and I didn't like it
ORAS is definitely my favorite Pokémon games. I wanted to run them but I specialize in shorter games. But man is this video great. Something I love about your content, and this video in general, is that it showcases the goofy with the impressive. The Steven Staredown and Spaghetti Man are excellent examples of the goofiness we speedrunners inject into what we do. And it’s universal, every game, every genre, all united under the umbrella of silly and go fast. It’s what I love about speedrunning
I always loved the contests, I remember I got my entire team to master every class. It took a long time though, getting it done in two hours is kinda mind boggling
I love Deoxys, he looks cool in almost all forms and the fact he can have many forms and is just so good, he is also a chatchable mythical and he has a special place in my heart
Getting flags for Garchompite requires either online features that have now been shut down or streetpassing locally with other save files to unlock other players’ secret bases.
Back on the day I tried getting garchompite, I couldn’t get it because my 3ds broke before I could get the stone but before that I was legit every single day opening the game just to get the flags from other peoples bases.
It bugged me that your voice sounded so familiar but I couldn’t tell why. got halfway through this video before I realized your freaking mara wana. Probably the best character in the campaign
Im 5 minutes in, and Im kind of confused, cause you said the next mega stone would be an hour after getting Alakazams, but the Mawileite can be obtained before Wattson
@dustindean4618 Optimization is not always clear in these cases. But if you watch deeper into the video, you'll learn why it's simply worth waiting for the post game Stones to be available! You basically get 4 Stones next to one another instead of just 1.
Yeah, this is a nuts speedrun. And it's actually less time than it is to complete a Professor Oak's Challenge (collect every Pokemon possible before a gym badge, no trading) in the Let's Go games.
I completed all contests i Emerald after realizing its a star on the trainer card. Wouldnt wish it on my worse enemies honestly. Especially the pokeblocks and filled up mechanic. That was torture. Worse than spamming everything hut fire punch on that shedinja. Worse than earthquaking tate and liza. Worse than getting milotic.
The funny part about how hard to find garchompite is is that it arguably makes garchomp a worse Pokémon because the speed loss is so important in competitive 😭😭
While that horde battle against Team Magma was easy, I’m surprised Game Freak never included more battles like that for trainers. In fact, I’m surprised they even got RID of them.
So sorry for the month long wait on this video! 7+ Hours speedruns like this are no joke. 😭
All good! Also saw u with GameBoyLuke in a quiz vid thing, W handsome!
@sparkypikachu7776 that was a fun video to be in! Fantastic group of folks. 😂

It’s probably faster to get lucarionite from XY and transfer it to oras lol
100% this ^ lmao
except, you can't transfer mega stones between games.
@@cybersaiyan9596 You can trade them as long as the Mega exists in X and Y in the case of trading between Hoenn and Kalos
Yeah, no mega stone trades in gen 7
@@cybersaiyan9596 Yes you can.

Honestly it makes sense. Nintendo wants you to buy x and y so you don't have to go through the long process of getting the stone.
4:09 "Mega Stomes Don't exactly grow on trees."

Yes, you could get Secret Bases with StreetPass, if I recall correctly, can say I've never even reached 500, that stuff got tedious
Also, gotta say I was counting the stones, either I didn't notice them or you skipped Absol and Latias' stones
Good catch on both! I had them both in my script too oddly enough...?
@@jairobarrera1809absol near the end, Latios/latias comes when you catch it
I got the Garchompite and it was a miserable experience. I had to add people on GameFAQs. And even then, the thread we made had to filter out people who didn't want to engage in the process to output the maximum amount of flags for everyone.
You could also get Secret Bases via SpotPass or by scanning QR codes, I can't remember the exact number but there was a cap on how many you could get
The fact that the FBI has the Lopunnite means yall are on some type of list somewhere 😂

Luckily, both of your problems with contests were made much simpler in ORAS (no pokeblock minigame and pokemon can't get full)
Doesn't even know the difference between a DS and a 3DS smh
Lucarionite in ORAS is the biggest middle finger ever, Game Freak was adamant that you use the new ones.
is there a reason you didn't turn battle effects off?
@sangel_436 they are off. Contest don't really let you get away with that though, same for Mega Evolutions.

Secret Bases don't require online features im pretty sure, since they're shared around via secret base QR Codes
