probably one of the worst types in the game, yeah; weak to: fighting, fire, rock, steel resisted by: fire ice steel water resists: only itself (lol!) supereffective against: dragon (i mean... ok?) flying grass ground the odds are so stacked against it it's not even funny, even bug is defensively better and has almost as many supereffectives, it's just resisted more too
If you want a game where Ice types are good, you play Gen 1, Gen 8, or Pokémon GO. Any other mons game involving Ice types or an equivalent (e.g. Xenoblade Chronicles 2) will always have Ice types suck.
Wow, Doublejho, you've really been overlooking the value of a type that smashes Ground and Flying at once? That's some comparatively good stuff if you sit up bother to explore all these types. Ice's super effective matchups are far more meaningful in quality than Bug's.
"crit mattered" was a phrase from Pokétubers long before PokémonChallenges. At the very least, I can recall ShadyPenguinn and NumbNexus and the other old guard in their days

Also just wanted to really quickly mention that yes, someone else made this same thing in emerald recently, and that it was just an unfortunate timing thing. Emerald Slide (the other ice physics romhack in question) has a ton of cool features, as well as a full on snow palette, so go check that out as well if you're interested in a similar, yet different experience in terms of solutions c:
I realized it after the puzzle bit, cause I thought it can't be a coincidence that these three rocks just so happened to be perfectly placed next to the stairs in the original game for no reason.
I love how these videos have gone from “Can you beat Pokémon with X” to “I am going to beat Pokémon under X conditions and if anything prevents me from doing so I will mod it out”
I mean, he really only had one real softlock for the entire game which is insane considering the game wasn't meant to be played like this. His auto generating an entire team was weird though, surprised he didn't just grind them up. Unless he also added level cap for gyms in which case.... Why? why would you do that?

The Regis are incredibly underwhelming legendaries though, so that's right on brand! 🤣 The only thing cool about these guys os how difficult it was back then to figure out how to get them!
Reminds me of how I used to play as a kid. I would act like "all floor has ice physics" in many games, including Pokemon games but also in real life I would try and navigate around using only cardinal direction ice physics. I think the ultimate motivator for that was this WildTangent game I played called Slider. I even ended up making my own ice physics based puzzle game. Really cool to see it actually as a mod.
2:31 "Did my water bottle just moan?! I don't think I want to drink out of that anymore." Well, its fulfilled its purpose I suppose, he's not thirsty :/
Okay, so you know that sound Alpharad's water bottle was making? I thought it sounded like a dolphin pokemon cry! So I made a fakemon for it based on a water bottle. Its called Bottleknows! Bottlenose as in the dolphin species, Bottle as in water bottle, and knows because Bottleknows are very intelligent. Bottleknows is a water/psychic type, with the ability poison absorb. It makes it so Bottleknows gets powered up by poison type moves instead of hurt. Bottleknows like to collect trash in the ocean and use it as decoration, jewelry, and housing for their communities. Bottleknows even use money in the same way humans do. Bottleknows appearance is a navy blue dolphin with a white bottle cap from a plastic bottle stuck on the tip of its nose, with the plastic rings used to hold cans tied around its neck as a necklace. It also has a pale blue stripe along the middle of its body. Jeez I loved writing this. You're free to draw Bottleknows but please credit me and alphadad both!

Your Pokémon content made me want to get back into Pokémon and I started with a random move, evolution, typing, just literally everything random, and it’s been a fun time. really increases replay value
Leaving this here for my own memory, but thank you for the luck tonight. During this video I found and reclaimed a shiny braviary in pokemon white that I failed catching 11 and a half years ago when the game first came out, and I'm giving the credit to this video.
@@garyromano7990tldr: pokemon challenges (the guy shown in the video) basically has a god complex and keeps calling himself the world's greatest nuzlocker
I love this, both for how clever the concept is and because... I'm a psychopath who legit LOVES ice puzzles. People out here talking about how linear Regions have gotten while completely sleeping on the puzzles in Pokemon games, they're nice. Even the Gen 6 ice puzzles that you can cheese just by going diagonal.
Ice puzzles are definitely interesting and required the player to think about their pathing. I think the only puzzle I hated as a kid was Sky Pillar... because I could never get the bike puzzle timing down and needed to repeat it so many times.
I like to imagine the boy scout at 9:54 looking at the player then quickly looking away as an "oh- what? okay" and then he's really nervous about this boy just standing mere inches away from his nose so he keeps looking at him and then away.
I tend to sumarize pokémon into 3 things: battling, petting and exploring. Battling is self-explanatory, but it also includes some non-combat things like breeding, EV soccer and battle tower knock-offs. Petting means stuff like contests (and related minigames), pokéathlon, pokéstar, Amie, camping, avenue, mantine surfing, etc. Exploring sounds simple, but it might not be so: dex filling, travel logistics, treasure hunting and some other minigames like secret bases and sinnoh underground. Whether it's competitive or nuzlocking, most pokémon circles only care about the battling part while GameFreak itself cares about the petting part but also battling cause it's what the majority of players do, while exploring gets less with each generation. Ice physics everwhere sounds amusing, but I don't think it's enough for me...

4:17 I think this specific cut makes an amazing point that Alpharad's editing skills are fine tuned for humor. You could find other youtubers who do cuts like that in their vids for comedic value but no one I know has done it as often and subtle as Alpharad, which makes them all the better since it doesn't feel forced. (Even though forced cuts are great because of some humor meta I don't have enough degrees in comedian to explain.)

Easily the most interesting gimmick playthrough I've seen, this and entrance randomizer are great
3:22 TH-cam. RIGHT HERE. AGE RESTRICT HIM.
pls dont though.
Your Pokémon content made me want to get back into Pokémon and I started with a random move, evolution, typing, just literally everything random, and it’s been a fun time. really increases replay value
Not gonna lie, I really like the aesthetic of the overworked always being a bit darker and always snowing. Very pretty imagery.
You can see the terror in his eyes when the bottle enjoys itself too much
3:29 okay but why does the water bottle sound like the Shellos/Gastrodon cry?
14:14 Man just got return to zero. You get it if you know what i mean.

10:22 The way how Regice died so quickly along with Alpha's reaction pretty much slayed me
12:36 you what?
12:44 too
Leaving this here for my own memory, but thank you for the luck tonight. During this video I found and reclaimed a shiny braviary in pokemon white that I failed catching 11 and a half years ago when the game first came out, and I'm giving the credit to this video.
0:04 "But you have a god complex"
That's too accurate
Can you give me the context?
@@garyromano7990tldr: pokemon challenges (the guy shown in the video) basically has a god complex and keeps calling himself the world's greatest nuzlocker

Jacob: tilts a water bottle *with a straw* backwards to drink it
Jacob: why is this water bottle being weird
7:42 I got jumpscared so hard by the battle music, I thought something crashed behind me
I love this, both for how clever the concept is and because... I'm a psychopath who legit LOVES ice puzzles.
People out here talking about how linear Regions have gotten while completely sleeping on the puzzles in Pokemon games, they're nice.
Even the Gen 6 ice puzzles that you can cheese just by going diagonal.
Ice puzzles are definitely interesting and required the player to think about their pathing. I think the only puzzle I hated as a kid was Sky Pillar... because I could never get the bike puzzle timing down and needed to repeat it so many times.
It's not cheese if they know. There's a TM in X&Y that you can ONLY get by going diagonally on an ice physics puzzle.
The skip to Candice in BDSP is cheese. The TM you're speaking of isn't.
BDSP are Gen 8.
Just the thought of how you would traverse the Sootopolis City Gym with Ice Physics gives me *chills*
I like to imagine the boy scout at 9:54 looking at the player then quickly looking away as an "oh- what? okay" and then he's really nervous about this boy just standing mere inches away from his nose so he keeps looking at him and then away.
BL plot
I tend to sumarize pokémon into 3 things: battling, petting and exploring.
Battling is self-explanatory, but it also includes some non-combat things like breeding, EV soccer and battle tower knock-offs.
Petting means stuff like contests (and related minigames), pokéathlon, pokéstar, Amie, camping, avenue, mantine surfing, etc.
Exploring sounds simple, but it might not be so: dex filling, travel logistics, treasure hunting and some other minigames like secret bases and sinnoh underground.
Whether it's competitive or nuzlocking, most pokémon circles only care about the battling part while GameFreak itself cares about the petting part but also battling cause it's what the majority of players do, while exploring gets less with each generation. Ice physics everwhere sounds amusing, but I don't think it's enough for me...
It's iconic that the ICE FLOOR in the ICE GYM is the area without ice physics in a mod where the water has ice physics.
Alpharad will eventually go insane and just upload a 10 hour video of his water bottle moaning.
4:56 I think most of us did this as a kid
4:24 the perfect edit doesn't exi..
Watching anyone play hour 1000 of any single player game, no matter the modification, is magical.
Side Character Development:
2:18 - Our Journey Begins
3:30 - Weird sh*t...
4:34 - Spheal 2
4:56 - Playing Tag with a Bird
14:11 - Welcome Back, Old Friend
This might be a spheal only run. *Sip*
That timing lol
17:06 What is this background music? It's hype!
Got nothing but want to know as well
@@nepternity Thank you!
@@fiddleronthenet3360what did they comment? The comment is gone 🥲
Watching Watson live was such a trial, so much RNG needed even after cheating
I mean with an opening that has been described as "A glock and a threat" I wouldn't be surprised
this immediately one hit took me out with “pokemon but you have a good complex” the rivalry with jan will never not be funny to me
Alpharad: I'm good in the dark.
Vashyron: He's good in the dark.
"Ok I'm gonna rephrase that hitting a woman part."
"So after we beat off this old man..."
Really enjoyed seeing this run live! Incredible how you completed this match completely legitimately!
Yeah
hello there, fellow blue-pfp person
You had an original comment why did you replace it with a stolen one

3:39 Geokofi in the chat: “Gen 9 Ghost type water bottle confirmed.”
"pokemon, but you have a god complex" 7 seconds in and i'm already histerical
This thumbnail is just perfect! 🤣
Also, at 9:45 hearing the sudden, loud onset of the Route 112 theme after the calm and quiet Lavaridge town absolutely sent me! Such perfect comedic timing, he just realized his mistake and then the timpani/kettle drum just hits like a truck! 😂
Ngl the "Pokémon but you have a god complex" caught me off guard xD
As a fan of the ice puzzles (Brycen’s gym is legit my favorite), this was actually hype!
Mmm, how about Platinum with the same ice physics?
One of the most creative challenges yet. Also annoying Alpha not going cynical, glad he got help.
Tate & Liza are for gen3 what Cynthia is for gen4. Absolutely goddamn terrifying.
Now that I know the lore between alpha and jan, the 'pokemon but you have a god complex' joke is so much funnier
You know what.
Pokémon but it’s all dark.
Flash guy also doesn’t exist, and Flash is hidden near the end of the game.
Man I been seeing this guy pop up for years and am just now really watching him. So witty!
hope you're prepared for the funny
"Pokemon, but you have a god complex" just somehow fits perfectly
"did my water bottle just moan?" I've had that kind of water bottle before. Yes. It moaned. You can also make a dolphin noise with it :)
Great idea for a mod, turning off the ice physics for indoors and grass is a good choice also to make it playable
4:17 I think this specific cut makes an amazing point that Alpharad's editing skills are fine tuned for humor.
You could find other youtubers who do cuts like that in their vids for comedic value but no one I know has done it as often and subtle as Alpharad, which makes them all the better since it doesn't feel forced.
(Even though forced cuts are great because of some humor meta I don't have enough degrees in comedian to explain.)
2:08 4. There are 4 Ice Pokémon if you count Castform's Hail form.
There's 12 if you count national dex
HAIL YEAH
