- Playthrough Rules:
1. Only my starter in battle
2. No items in battle (except held items)
3. No glitches or exploits*
4. No Double-Team TM before level 100*
Other rules:
-- My Pokemon have perfect genetics to ensure fair comparison between species.
-- *Pokeballs & Pokedolls are allowed in battle
-- *The badge-boost glitch is not restricted at all
-- *Skipping the Rocket Hideout & Marowak is allowed
-- I play the game at 4x game speed (238 frames per second)
-- My Pokemon has perfect DVs
-- The Trash-Can-Puzzle is automatically solved so times are not affected by RNG
-- The bike is allowed (the bike skip is not)
-- Skipping the bike is not allowed

-- I can pause the game & timer to take breaks
-- The footage is sped up / slowed down to match the pace of my narration
*Double-Team:
-- Almost every Pokemon can learn Double-Team through TM
-- The TM can be purchased in Celadon
-- Using it would centralize the meta
-- Every Pokemon would use it to overcome tough battles at lower levels
-- It raises evasion
-- It triggers the badge boost
-- Banning the TM allows Pokemon who learn it through level up to use it
-- I believe evasion is part of Pokemon and shouldn't be banned entirely
-- I don't want the videos to all be double-team spam though, that's not fun or entertaining

30:11 "All that's left are six trainers, and five of them are the strongest trainers in the game." Lol the constant shade thrown at Bruno
Who?
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon _Whuno?_
And two of them are Butt.
He deserves all the shade lol
🎶 We don't talk about Bruno-no-no-no 🎶
Misty and Lorelei are going to be absolute walls.
Erika:
@@yellowdoesstuff2258 erika can be delayed until right before giovanni in gym 8 if necessary
At least Surge won't be 🥰❤️
Water grass ice lol. Imagine being this thing and getting one shot by flamethrower lol
Imagine the wrapping lass and the status condition junior 🙃
36:30 - Machamp using SUBMISSION wasnt necessarily an Attack-- it was literally Machamp/Bruno 'submitting' the match to you; he even had the courtesy of saving you the PP and KOing himself for you!
Ahhh, that makes more sense. Thanks for clarifying!
The production quality for these videos is off the charts! I really hope this added amount of work put into editing this format really translates to more views and subscribers for you Scott. You really deserve it.
Those frame perfect cuts on random trainers were so satisfying. Showing the route without the actual battles made the footage super smooth. I love the production quality of your videos. Little details like this really make it something special
To use a Gym Leader Matt line from when he ran Onix.
You embraced the grind with Rhyhorn and it ended up paying off.
You didn't go into it looking to scrape through fights where you have a type disadvantage; you knew Rhyhorn was going to be a pain in the arse against pretty much any special attacks so you shored up his weaknesses.
Great play and great video as always.
Rhydon is my favourite of all pokemon and I think you did the baby boy justice.
Well, you see Scott, we at gamefreak knew that Horn drill would be useless on such a slow pokemon so we gave it Leer, a move that actually doesn't always fail, five levels after it. See? It makes perfect sense!
Oh yeah! Now everything makes sense. Also I forgot to use the Tail Whip-Leer combo for an incredible -12 to defense.
rhydon is actually a beast in gen 1 competitive you almost never see water or grass moves and his earthquake is the strongest no draw back physical attack, does incredible things like cleanly two hit koing chansey, it also can kind of use substitute properly because of his immunity to thunder wave
Not to mention being one of the very few things that is truly safe against Zapdos.
In pokemon stadium, the substitute doll looks like Rhydon!
@@Joker22593 True, its a cute 3d model!
Isn’t Chansey already physically frail?
@@skeetermania3202 for the most part but rhydons earthquake is the only non draw back move (hyper beams recharge turn, explosion's ko), that does it(i think technically theres a very small chance for golem to do so as well). rhydons earthquake hits everything except exeggutor like a truck. i like to paralyze everything then bring it in to clean up
I really appreciate that you've re-edited the Gym Leader introductions so that when they appear in full colour after sliding in darkness, the little musical stab coincides with it.
It's just so satisfying to watch this little dramatic staccato punctuation. It used to only happen with Brock, but now they all have this little feature! It's a testament to you and your editor! Thank you!
Yup. I did that a couple weeks ago. It’s been on my list for way too long. Finally got to it and it makes a big difference!
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I noticed a few videos ago, but didn't get around to commenting until now. I love it!
That finish was a lot faster than I thought given it’s learnset and typing. Great job Scott!
That Pinsr moment...
As a kid with Pokemon Yellow, I tried for so long to get rare safari zone pokemon. Finally got a Pinsr, but reset out of habit after finally catching it. I was super upset for a long time after that :(
I tried Chansey and got a similar experience lol
Did anyone ever actually catch a rare Pokemon in the safari zone? I know I never did, I always went to cinnabar island to complete my dex.
@@briancaster2876 yeah, I had a Chansey, Tauros, Dratini, Kangaskhan and Schyther, Got the Pinsr eventually too :)
@@Hoibz That's impressive, persistence or luck? Or I guess some combination of both.
@@briancaster2876 Played a lot of pokemon, had it sped up through Pokemon Stadium, so went a lot faster
I love the editing in this video with the misch trainers. Little details like that look so cool!
I always love watching your optimizations. It adds another level to these runs and it’s always interesting to see how things can be improved.
You've gotten so much better, I was imagining a worse time for ryhorn but your strategies made it top of E tier! Good stuff!
I have an unexplainable love for this pokemon. Happy to see you rock it ;)
Your videos are great. So organized and well edited, such a breath of fresh air for these types of videos. Excellent work.
Thanks so much, I appreciate the kind words!
So happy to see all these uploads regularly!
The Thunderbolt strats! That was hype, Scott. Great video.
I’ve loved rhyhorn since 1999. I hated the back sprite, but loved the design - it actually looked like a monster. But never used it in a play through of gen 1, it was accessible too late, and yeah - that move set … thank you for doing a rhyhorn run! And I love the evolution of your channel, and the stats in the surround are epic, you nailed it. Plus, may lord helix forgive you.
Pumping out the vids! You are awesome to watch 🤘🙂
Scott I love your vids! Cheers from Mexico!
This title alone is cracking me up. Great work as always Scott
Really enjoyed this one. Thank you Scott!
You have come so far proud of u buddy you have the best screen to watch this by far
Rhyhorn's back sprite looks like a novelty ice cream bar of itself.
wow, Rhyhorn did it despite having a hard time with outspeeding things , and the lack of accurate rock moves, that it even resorted to using special moves .Its really proud of you , because that run was really good . Having the right knowledge about the stat experience system was saving you a ton of resets throughout both runs . Well done! 👏👏👏
By the way Ryhorn's nickname is better then it's Japanese name , saifon .😂
and also, thanks for making awesome videos for us like this everyday , I always wait to watching them , because they always give me motivation to work, so thanks for that . ☺
Rhyhorn and Rhydon, maybe by the nature of being the first ones designed look like the most...Pokemon of pokemon
Like you could show it to a friend or your mom and you'd be able to explain what the basic idea of pokemon is just from them looking at the scowling rock rhino
Also riding them looks like fun and also literal pain in the ass. Like sitting on a sideways climbing wall, that middle fin, yeowch
Loving all the frequent content
Hello Scott and Denis!
I think this is going to be very, very rough. I hope you've managed to keep your sanity.
My god I'm so impressed with ryhorn! That was a really good time for the little stone doggo :D I'm loving all this content Scott, I hope you keep it up but make sure you look after yourself and have fun with your fiancée from time to time. I'll always be waiting for the next upload regardless of how long it takes!
My workday just got way better.
You're a machine with all this content
the daily upload is indeed helping me survive high school until christmas
I was so nervous this whole video! Hahaha. This was actually a tough challenge. I’m surprised of the outcome. I didn’t think that would be the case at all. But soon as you didn’t buy the max carbos I knew it would be an issue in the end. Still your strategy worked to perfection. I never realized how low the speed and the special are on this thing! I honestly never realized it. No wonder growing up no matter what moves I had and level he never did as good as he could with special attacks and why even first stage pokemon would always move first lol. Good video though! Can’t wait for the next one! If I can make a request do a head to head with jynx and mr. mime. I know I’ve asked like 50 times and I’m not really a huge fan of either but I feel like it would make for good content and those two Pokémon go together so seeing which would win would be cool to me! Honestly I believe it would be jynx just because of the ice type/moves. Keep up the great work brother! I know you read all the comments so I apologize for this one being a novel!
You are a chad my friend. Your skill is unmatched
Scott: ... and I magically cut some trees with the power of video editing.
Me: Video editing gives you the Force :).
"Despite the numerolgy there that isnt very nice" i spit my dang drink Scott LMAO
"What could possibly go wrong?"....Scott...you went full Bubsy....NEVER go full Bubsy....
💕 I remember when I first saw your channel. I binged 2-3 episodes a day
-I’m getting that vibe again. Thank you. You’re really fun to listen to
I appreciate the background music so much
Love you buddy. Glad this is your job now. You deserve it so fkin much
Just commented about a Rhyhorn playthrough a few vids back... I'm assuming you saw my comment and scott thought "you know what" 😂.
Thanks bro 👍
You're welcome bro!
YES! Sandy gets a name! XD
Nice job with Rhyhorn, misty and erika are kind of intimidating considering rhyhorn's super weaknesses.
During the Giovanni gym fight you could use dig and dugtrio could use dig. Since you are slower you would win that battle since you are slower. Not consistent, but that would be the best scenario I believe. Great video though! Keep up the good work!
Scott, on the first attempt when geovanni's dugtrio used dig, you could have used dig as well. Since your pokémon was slower than dugtrio, you should have avoid damage and hit the dugtrio too.
There is no way to know it will dig though. Yea, this technically avoids damage if it chooses Dig, so slightly better
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon by the way, nice solo plays. I always watch while I Walker the dog. Any time soon i'm gonna try It too.
One of my first ever cards. I loved this thing as a kid.
I know you have to be incredibly proud of this run! You are one of my favorite TH-camrs; love the authenticity and genius behind your work!
Yeah, I'm even proud of my first playthrough with it. Two years ago I would have had like 50 resets and taken 5-6 hours. I'm so glad my work has paid off! Also, thank you so much for the kind words. I'm so happy that my videos matter to you
Great job Tangela! Look at how much damage you did to that huge tank Pokemon! And he was waaaaay more experienced than you. Proud of you lil buddy!
3:43 Scott, your optimism never fails to entertain me.
"The 5 strongest opponents in the game."
Rapping Lass is definitely 6
I get what you mean in terms of “what were they thinking”. My answer (and probably theirs too) would be evolving to Rhydon.
surprisingly strong :D
Very creative giving Thunderbolt to the Rock-type with 30 Special
This playthrough seemed way less painful than anticipated
Yeah! It went way better than I thought it would. Very surprising
Better than I was expecting.
Glad to see that my favorite Kanto pokemon did well
The Rhyhorn back sprite always reminded me of a conker shell. Can’t be unseen
Was expecting venomoth to be water grass type
Saw the title on my lock screen and thought it was Paras. Pleasantly surprised
Misty and Lorelei just hanging out in Elsa's Ice Palace for this one waiting for you to finish training for them.
Hearing Scott’s thoughts every day is like Christmas every day, thank you so much for the amazing content
This title makes me laugh and cry. Such a cool design for a Pokémon that gets slapped around
holy god that champion fight, rhyhorn!
Lmfao false start? No way you’re getting past Lorelei!
I stand corrected. You are the guy!
Could you please do a comparison run on the johto starters? I love all the starters equally and I’d love to see you complete runs on each of these. Much love ❤️
That was an amazing run. Didn't think rhynope could do it lol
I've never seen the back Sprite before it's so cool 😂
Game freak: adds fighting type to gen 1
Also game freak: mEgA PuNcH and MeGa KiCk ArE NoRmAl TyPe MovEs
Definitely needed that crit against Starmie after Misty used the x defend. So clutch!
Great run. I was impressed. I do wonder how allowing it to evolve into Rhydon would improve it.
What scott says: it has 80 hp
What I hear: it has adhd
As soon as I saw this title, I laughed so hard!
Commenting before premiere. I'm expecting this one to be very interesting. There will be portions of the game that Rhyhorn just steamrolls; high HP and Defense mean that Rhyhorn tanks physical hits well, and high Attack means it can dish out good damage. On the other hand, between low Speed, low Special, being in the Slow level-up group, and having two double-weaknesses that are both Special, there will also be portions where Rhyhorn struggles mightily. While it does have access to Thunderbolt and Fire Blast, those don't really help; Rhyhorn's Special is too low to take advantage of them, plus Fire Blast comes too late to be a good option against Grass-types anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if a Thunderbolt from Rhyhorn can't even OHKO any of the Gyarados it has to face, despite the double-weakness. Not helping the cause, Rhyhorn has no access to moves to let it set up the Badge Boost Glitch. I expect that Rhyhorn is mostly just going to have to depend on Body Slam and its STAB moves. Luckily, it does get Rock Slide, Dig, and Earthquake by TM, and Rock + Ground is a pretty good STAB combo, even considering Rock Slide's middling power and annoyingly-imperfect accuracy. Also, I'm expecting the Brock split to be less than ideal, since Rhyhorn literally has no options for that part of the game other than "spam Horn Attack".
Rhyhorn is one of those pokemon that I never used for a very long time. There are always other rock/ground types that you encounter much earlier in the game and I usually caught a geodude in the early gens. Eventually I finally used one and really liked it. Its speed and special stats are terrible, but it's really good at what it does and you didn't need to trade to get to its final evolution. They changed that in gen 4, but that just made rhydon better if you're in a game with an eviolite. I still only rarely use it, but I really like it. It can also get some pretty interesting moves.
This channel is objectively better than Jrose11. You do a great job
I love rhyhorn. I always catch it and it’s like a cute dog to me especially after what they did with rhydon in arceus
I'm sure with great coverage like Rage, Thunder and Fire Blast this run will be great!
A very rare appearance for the route east of Vermillion City and Digletts cave. You hardly ever see it or the other eastern routes that link Lavender Town to Fuchsia City.
Slow growth rate, low speed, 4 x weaknesses, and low special = rough time
Edit: Wow, Ryhorn did way better than I expected.
Dig, Earthquake, and rock slide can carry I suppose.
Extensively planning around weaknesses definitely came through!
In Blaine's gym when you asked if we knew who was gonna be awful I thought you were gonna say "TOMBSTONER, BROTHER!!"
I was watching Vanman's rhyhorn video yesterday!
That’s a good video!
Body slam and horndrill are going to rock
Yup, your vid proves it man...
Being Rhyhorn is suffering.
And just like that the rhyhorn’s heart grew 3x its size…… lol loved it.
Gen 1 AI be like: oH iT HAs pUnCh on ThE naMe sO it mUst be fighTing tYpe
I am talking to YOU bruno.
Yep, and one of the 4x weakness is one of the first 2 gyms, that's definetly not gonna be painful and agonizing
And no matter what others say, but Erika is genuinly difficult in this Game. She profits so much from Razor Leaf, non-Special Split, and Bind.
But its yellow so shes pretty nerved luckily.
I really lol'd with cryhorn... haha perfect 👌🏻
I wonder if you could modify the overlay so that the Stats show as filling up with Stat XP. Maybe scaled by square-root so that it approximately shows how many stat points the XP is adding.
That confusion luck against Agatha though... Zero self-hits through the battle!
First of all: Great Video keep it up! What I was wondering though with the stat experience, does that mean even at like a Level 100 if you continue killing Pokemon, does your Pokemons power increase indefinitely or is there like a stat cap?
The reason why Instant KO moves are innacruate or useless usually is that was kind of how RPG balanced their Instant Death moves. Thought of very accuate Instand Death attack on enemies would have been on Game Freak's mind and Satoshi Tajiri and Ken Sugimori's Dragon Quest 2(The game that inspired the trading mechanic and gambling in Pokemon) as that one has a very reliable one known as Sacrifice or Kamikaze depending on the version and one of the Random encounter enemies that drops the Mad Cap has the Spell. So there may also be a grudge there too.
I used Rhyhorn in a recent yellow playthrough. Used the Mew glitch to get one somewhere near cerulean.
Even moreeeeeeee yessssss.
incredible!! you know what scott? rhyhorn wasn't really that bad. very good considering its typing! you know, rock pokemon on the whole have strong attack and defense, at least in this generation, so the trick for rhyhorn was only the level, to be at a high enough level for outspeeding some threatening Pkemon, right? great job with rhyhorn! Rhydon probably will do even better, I suppose!
In gen 1. Probably a D-F tier mon for solo speed runs. I anticipate this being a marathon
I always wonder how many of your viewers know why you pick the Dome Fossil.
I assume it's because of Twitch Plays Pokemon. I remember participating in it when they did that first run of Pokemon Red. It was such a unique experience, and the community that sprung up during it was great to be a part of. I'd love to hear you share your experience with it in a video sometime!
Also praise Lord Helix!
Noted! I’ll share at the end of the month!
Thought you over prioritized Rock Slide a bit in the first run by going double Rock Slide instead of Rock Slide - Earth Quake at good ranges vs. the Cloysters. Good that you largely got around that with better level progression in attempt 2 though.
This made me realize I've never seen any of rhyhorn's back sprites, despite playing nearly every main pokemon game...
There is a reason
Bro coming out with these videos at warp speed
A piece of content everyday!
Oh yeah this should be a good run😊
Rhyhorn's back sprite is... what the heck am I even looking at?
Rhyhorns back sprite is so funny
As soon as he said jolteon won't be challenging, double kick and being outsped instantly came to mind. Haven't finished the video yet, but I'm gonna guess it's going to be a issue.
