Mewtwo Only - Pokemon Emerald
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ธ.ค. 2022
- Playthrough Rules:
1. Only my starter in battle
2. No items in battle*
3. No glitches or exploits*
4. No Double-Team TM before level 100*
Other rules:
-- *Pokeballs are allowed in battle when I need to catch an HM user
-- I play the game at 4x game speed (238 frames per second)
-- I allow myself to manipulate my starter (IVs, nature, HP type)
-- Using the bike for movement speed increases is banned (it can be used to obtain items)
-- Saving between league members is allowed
-- If the solo Pokemon faints and I choose to blackout it counts towards my reset counter
-- HM Mules cannot use Pickup (I want to ensure that the comparison between Pokemon is as accurate as possible, this RNG would skew things.)
*Double-Team:
-- Almost every Pokemon can learn Double-Team through TM
-- 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

Theory! May's Torkoal was borrowed from an older family member to help her start off, and she gave it back once she got her own fire type and more experience.
Finally, a Pokemon theory that not only makes sense but also isn't absurdly dark.
Another theory, the Torkoal just wasn't enjoying the journey so she let him leave,
Why is there so much fascination with developing very dark theories for things in the pokemon fandom, personally i blame trickle in from the pokemon manga which does have a bit of dystopian vibe for the pokemon world. Like half the fan made games for pokemon always seem to focused on making a "darker" or "gritter" story.
@@NerdKing2ndBecause some adults who consume children’s media still want their darker edgier fix while consuming that media, Pokemon consistently includes darker elements thru Pokédex entries and whatnot so they don’t see as that farfetch’d, and some people are Just Like That.
This actually makes sense lore wise because in the manga May (Saphire for those who care) gets all of her pokemon from her father with the exception of a single minum who her and Brendan (Ruby) befriend
Theory: May's Torkoal is actually her dads that she borrowed until she caught slugma and returned it.
even better, Norman used his connections as a gym leader to borrow a torkoal from Flannery to help may learn about type effectiveness
I'm noticing a trend where Scott never seems to know the right move to use on Ludicolo. Is it the new Venomoth? Would be fitting given that the OG Venomoth is also a grass/water type
Can you explain to me why everyone keeps making up Venomoths typing? Is it an inside joke?
It is a joke stemming from this:
Venomoth leaves psychic, and is randomly on Sabrina’s team in gen 1. So Scott used to joke that it was a psychic type.
Then it turned into “what type even is this thing anyway, surely it’s ice flying, right? Look St those wings, clearly it’s a flying type” etc.
I enjoy the constant reminder of venomoths toxic/flapping type
@@darude2893 it's just a Pokemon that looks like it could be psychic, flying, bug or poison believably, so it was hard for Scott to remember the typing when he started
Nah. Armaldo is better for this meme. Besides, they are both Bug types, right?
I think Kyogre has the potential to be the "Mewtwo" of generation 3. It starts with a base 180 power water pulse (thanks to rain and STAB), and only gets better from there. If memory serves, the 8th gym is the first one to resist its water-type attacks, and it even has surf for Tate & Liza.
And it should have thunder by then
@Ravi Kiran If you don't have to reset because you're one-hitting everything due to the rain boost, you're actually saving time. Kyogre is used in Sapphire and Alpha Sapphire speedruns to beat the rest of the game for a reason...
@Ravi Kiran Who cares if the text box still says the rain continues if Kyogre 1 shots everything. Even in early game, Water Pulse is really dummy strong. You have a 135 Power Water move to start with at Level 5. And, there's not many things that resist Water from something with 150 Special Attack.
@@shadowtitanx3962 Not even Shedinja could possibly resist Kyogre's powerful water moves.
Wonder Guard: About that...
@@semajniomet981 Except, there's no Trainer that uses a Shedinja in Hoenn. It's only in the remakes.
Steven is known to us as the steel champion, but I think his theme is actually ore/minerals/fossils. He's obsessed with all kinds of evolution stones. He uses fossil Pokemon.
I think a lot of Elite Four and Champions is less monotype, and more dual speciality/vibes. Ie. Hiker is about the slow and sturdy physical attacker (rock/fighting), and Agatha is about status movies (poison/ghost). Lance and Cynthia are both about overwhelming power - the fast and strong Dragonite and Garchomp. Steven actually stands out because a lot of his pokemon in addition to being good attackers, are very good defensively: Cradily, Metagross.
I mean, come Generation 5 that is not true anymore until Raihan, which because Dragons can almost be any type runs a weather Dragon team as his sort-of Elite 4 battle, and even as a gym leader runs a good-if-flawed sandstorm dragon team
At best Diantha has the theme of a weak team as does Geeta for some reason, Kukui has the feeling of a setup team as befits a trainer studying moves, Hau just has a team that is generically good, and Leon just has popular Pokémon to reflect he is popular.
Yes, there is Psychic-to-Fairy Bede which reflects his less haughty attitude and also mocks the common Psychic/Fairy type, but then there is Normal/Flying Larry to reflect a common starting bird type. But other than those, every Elite 4 member is strictly monotyped.
There is a fan theory that the elite four of kanto was originally meant to be double tiped.
Loreli water/ice
Bruno fighting/rock
Agatha poison/Ghost
Lance dragon/flying.
May stumbled upon a nest of abandoned baby Slugma. Her Torcoal stayed behind to take care of the babies. One of the babies was attached to May wanted to come with her. He kept following her until May offered him a pokeball.
The reason Ghost is physical is because lick was the only regular ghost move in gen 1 and lick is obviously physical
Bite?
@@mithos92 bite was a normal type move. No dark type in gen 1
@@gidan1128 I think mithos92's point is that they made Dark type (Bite, Pursuit, Beat Up) use Special Attack, which is inconsistent with the idea that ghost type is Physical Attack because Lick, which is a very fair point =P
I think Lick does emotional damage
@@888Grim It's almost certainly because steel is a much more purely physical type, and to try to have a more equal number of physical and special types dark was made special.
Ooh, I just had a fun idea for another one of the potential fastest completion pokemon, Deoxys. It would be fun to see a race between all four forms, and see which is the fastest!
There are 2 barriers with that idea:
1) Deoxys that are not fatefully encountered (Events) or the one obtained at Birth Island will always disobey.
2) There needs to be 4 Emerald Versions with 1 different form of Deoxys because in Emerald, Deoxys is in its Speed Form. Gen 3 games do not support Form variants until Gen 4.
@@shadowtitanx3962 I'm pretty sure mewtwo isn't a faithful encounter in emerald but yet here we are. Second if we can randomize games and make games from the ground up with rom hacks, I'm sure we can figure out how to get the form we need in any game.
@@prestonpearson581 actually the Fateful Encounter thing is a check implemented in the code for only Deoxys and Mew. If the game registers they are not from an event, they will disobey. This is only a thing in gen 3, and only with Mew and Deoxys, as a rather unique anti-cheat mechanism. There are patches randomizers can implement to change this, though. You can also hack them in by hacking in the events themselves, but this doesn't work for making it your starter.
Edit: As for Deoxys forms, the data for the other forms doesn't even exist in the game. For a randomizer or hack to allow their access, they need to actually put them in the games themselves, at least as far as I can find. Deoxys will always change forms to whatever is default for that game otherwise.
@@shadowtitanx3962 It is possible to patch in a loophole to the disobedience, randomizers have found ways to as have other romhacks, so doing Deoxys in general is possible. But you are right that the other forms aren't even in the game, only whatever it's base form is for that game, at least in gen 3. The only way around it is to put them in yourself, which I believe randomizers and romhacks have done, making it possible, but not easy. Maybe he could get help to manage for a much later run, like with skipping Lt. Surge's puzzle or reading the game data for stat updates in gen 1.
@@Kahadi The only form in emerald is the speed form btw if you were curious. I think ruby and sapphire was the normal form then fire red and leaf green had attack and defence.
«I would have expected Mewtwo to be a little more consistent"
*Enters gyms at level 8*
😂😂
Ugh, it was painful to see how many resets there were just because of wrong move choices.
Btw: The reason Steven jumped the ledge was because he was on a camping vacation in Fortree, but needed a Sitrus berry for his Metagross to hold, because he was getting ready to go to Meteor Falls. So he needed to go to the Berry Master to get a couple. After all, nice day for a walk. After that he flew back to Fortree, went to the Keckleon, but as he saw you were on your way, he waited to show you his great skills. Then he flew to his house on Mossdeep :)
My headcanon for May's Torkoal is that it was actually just her Slugma hiding in a rock
Chuggaaconroy also thought that it evolved into Torkoal when he was a kid.
Let's see if Mewtwo can defeat Rayquaza
The Torkoal was clearly traded to her, since that early on she couldn't have acquired one herself yet. The traded torkoal was her ace, as it was her only good pokemon and therefore it leveled too quicky - so quickly indeed that it started to ignore her orders. Considering that this turtle is basically a vulcano that erupt, May got scared to use the Torkoal anymore and decided that the Slugma she caught was super friendly and nice to her so she started to train the Slugma instead. It's not as good as Torkoal quite yet but at least it isn't a danger to herself, her friends and her environment.
Boltbeam is always a good combo for coverage, it's the same with the rock/ground combo if you are playing with a physical attacker, which makes earthquake/rock slide very versatile.
In this video: Scott steadfastly refuses to click Psychic and loses a bunch.
Oh! I was expecting Kyogre or Groudon next.
But this works too, I suppose!
I knew it, the moment I heard you where planning a follow up legendary I was like "Mewtwo hype"😀
Nice, when I heard that I thought kyogre or groudon but I was clearly wrong lol
👍
Another great run! Mewtwo’s early game struggles and lack of psychic moves hurt it but this was still fun to watch. Especially with the great coverage it has.
Also, You said mild nature but it’s the modest nature that raises special attack and lowers physical attack. Very nice job Scott!
Aerial ace or brick break woulda gone crazy in the Sydney fight
Just so you know, if you run past trainers they immediately flip around to see you. You have to walk, not run
Im surprised by how this run went. Im looking forward to the eventual sweep of Gen 1/2 with it! Keep of the great work Scott!
I think the reason Mewtwo doesn't have as easy a time as you'd expect is because gen 3 is, well, gen 3. It has a lot more type representation among trainers. Like, in gen 1 you didn't have Steel types or Dark types, there wasn't really anything that _could_ resist Mewtwo's psychic type attacks. It also doesn't start with Psychic like it did in gen 1. So while it does have very high base stats, it now actually has some poor matchups. Oh, and the special split reduced its special defense so there's that too. Enemy pokemon in gen 3 also just have much better movesets overall than gen 1. Even Yellow version which tries to improve gym leaders and the elite 4 is by comparison pretty mediocre. I mean, look at Watson with self buffs, thunder wave, shockwave, etc. Hell, just the fact that gym leaders in this gen have more pokemon minimum than in earlier gens. Roxanne has 3 to Brock's 2, as does Brawly, and Watson has four.
So, yeah. Mewtwo's still an excellent pokemon, but gen 3 is a more difficult game for a variety of reasons.
edit: 16:30 The turnstile puzzles are fun, yeah. I call those Golden Sun puzzles, cause they're like the puzzles in the Golden Sun series which is awesome and you should definitely play it.
Psychic was sooo op in Gen1 so it's really interesting to watch this legendary psy not just dominate everything.
I don't think I ever played mewto 'cause you got it so late in the game... but it was obvs the MVP of the game.
Loving all the videos Scott. I've seen every post for awhile now. Keep up the good work
A quick note on Steven's name. Yes Steve sounds vaguely similar to 'steel,' but what is more fun is the realization that his name is Steven Stone so it sounds like 'Steel and Stone'. It's fitting considering that Steven uses Steel types and Rock/Ground types.
Wow they sure are lucky the mighty fighting fighting Venomoth isn't here to challenge them 👀👀
Scott I just did a Kingler run in Yellow and man that was a fun one. Really impressed me with its power I would love to see you do that one next!
The ultimate moveset for Mewtwo, Psychic, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam and Calm Mind and you just destroy the leftover of the game after the fifth badge
Scott be throwing bombs you said u had big plans for the end of the year but your really blowing my mind with these runs 💜💯
Got to say, loving this incredible treat of a month. It is quite the early Christmas present. Hope you're enjoying the start of the festive season and not sacrificing your own sanity to bring us so much.
We're actually ahead as of this week. Likely early vacation for me, as long as there are no significant set backs.
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon actually sabeleye can be super weak to FIGHTING
How
Foresight allows fighting to hit the ghost dark type for super effective damage
I actually learned this in a playthrough with ghosts
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I have waited so long. I love this. Yes I am curious of how fast he can go in Gen 2 but this will do for now.
Loving these Gen 3 videos. Keep 'em coming!
Yes
i cant even keep up watching, you are amazing!
Great job Scott! Mewtwo is the favorite one of many, including mine!😁but of course it can always be improved, I can't wait to see your next legendary challenge! One Suggestion, play it with Kyogre! That's my favorite legendary of Hoen! I'm sure it's unbeatable!😁
Mewtwo is the best
The best legendary Pokémon from generation 1 we all remember how hard it was to capture Mewtwo with its psychic power moves well only with a master ball.
Mewtwo's been my favorite pokemon since I was a kid, but back then it made me sad that there was nothing left to use it on since catching it was the only postgame content in Red & Blue (and then Pokemon Stadium came out so yaaaay). I still have and use the Mewtwo mouse pad my mom bought me like 20 years ago.
Steven does have three rock types on his team though, the Cradily (grass/rock), Armaldo (bug/rock) and Aggron (steel/rock). And then there's the ground/psychic Claydol who doesn't really fit into his theme. Maybe he just likes ancient pokemon because he likes ancient rocks.
Should've gotten Thunder for Wallace since he so helpfully sets up Rain dance for you.
I remember growing up, my big brother always liked Mewtwo, but I preferred Mew! I always thought it was cuter, and I loved that it was pink and could learn Transform and every TM
tbh the editing is amazing 10/10.
Hidden power type psychic would give mewto a stronger STAB move as confusion till TM29 is available.
Just like Blue’s Raticate, you accidentally killed her Torkoal in the first battle, which is why she refuses to follow you through Mt Pyre and chooses to battle you in Lillycove despite the non-fully evolved team
You’re so right about the quality of gym minigames. Gen 9 does have some interesting ones, though (and arguably the worst one ever where you push a big olive).
Yeah, true. The olive one wasn’t difficult but I found it sort of fun.
Seeing these legendaries has me looking forward toy favorite Pokémon, Kyogre
As well as the oddly difficult to obtain in gen 3 Johto legendaries
And especially the Regi trio, which may actually be impossible
The Regi's are all impossible. They all start with Explosion as their only move. And since blacking out heals all Pokemon, there's no way to drain the PP.
I’m sorry but I couldn’t help laugh at getting a reset so early
I would love a replay of mewtwo and rayquayza, or however you spell it's name. I never managed to get one as a kid 😆 but your optimizations and replays are one of your key features as a TH-camr and I really missed them here.
I forgot how beautiful the little root town theme is.
I was expecting Mewtwo to beat Rayquaza, but I guess that struggle fest against Poochyena mattered a lot more than I thought!
I'm really looking forward to the Kyogre run. I actually did a run myself since I was curious, and I managed to first try Steven at level 57! You could probably do this in a lower level though, since I was too reckless and stumbled on a lot of optional trainers haha. My Kyogre didn't have perfect IVs, nature and EVs either, so I'm speculating a level 52-54 run is possible.
I learned a few things to make a Kyogre run consistent though:
-Make sure you reach Level 35 before the rival fight in Fortree. It is possible to beat this fight without Ice Beam, but I had to reset twice since Grovyle's Leaf Blade can and will 1-shot if it crits. It also makes Winona a joke. It's worth the slight time loss to fight some optional trainers and grab some rare candies, because the entire game after this point is essentially free. (I notably only needed to reset here and in the Wattson fight... though honestly the only reason I had to reset for Watson was because I forgot to grab Cheri Berries. So I had to keep trying the fight until I crit the Magneton.)
-Kingdra and Ludicolo are the only two pokemon that can reasonably wall Kyogre. Funnily enough, though, both are also fodder for setting up Calm Mind. Although Ludicolo could be annoying with Leech Seed, since I almost lost the wallace fight thanks to Leech Seed getting me into red.
-Kyogre is so strong that most battles you won't need Calm Mind at all! I only felt like I needed to set up against Norman, Wallace and Steven. I did set up against Phoebe and Drake predicting Protect from both, but it felt pretty overkill.
-Timid is the best nature. This guarantees that Kyogre can outspeed and 1-shot Wattson's Voltorb at level 20. STAB Water Pulse on rain is so strong that it even does more damage on resisted hits than Ancientpower or Body Slam. I pretty much only ended up using the two on very fringe cases, or to save Water Pulse PP.
Good luck on your run! I want to see that 2 hour barrier broken!
So happy to see you playing Pokémon emerald!!! Love your content!!!
I instantly thought of jrose11 thank you bro great well paced speaking sub
Could you try the Legendary dogs also? These runs would be so interesting!
New subscriber! I wanted to see Jrose but for emerald. My desires are fulfilled!
scott and jrose have been on fire!
I honestly recommend revisiting Mewtwo after a while. You could easily shave off at least five minutes.
I think an interesting take would be to compare RayRay and Mewtwo in FRLG where Mewtwo's starting moves don't hamper it so much.
Good idea
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon you've heard it before but don't burn yourself out or go out of order lol
I wonder if you’ll consider Substitute more. So far, I’ve only seen you use that only in the Ludicolo video.
Mewtwo is still good in gen 3,not as much is in kanto, because in emerald psychic types are really doing poorly, because of the dark types and ghost types having physical strong moves. 🤔
That reset on the poochiyena was really brutal though. 😂
And about that May's torkoal she had onr in the anime, so maybe the developers were trying to make her have it in the games as well?🤔I think that torkoal would be a better choice to face then slugma would ever be.
Like always thanks for making us have a good time, I can't wait for tomorrow's video. 😁
Mine too😊
Question: Which statement is correct?
A: Mewtwo has the weirdest neck.
2: Mewtwo has the weirdest fingers.
B: Mewtwo has the weirdest feet.
1: Denis.
If you take a rubber made totes, line inside it with foil then foam. Like pillows or old blankets. Then cut a hole for entry. Random animals use it for survival in the winter.
scott, it feels that you spend so many time trying to beat a luck dependant battle, when you could just gain 2 or 3 more levels in 3 minutes and win.
take psychic tm as soon as possible to get rid of confusion, and go with fire blast instead of flamethrower, as it's cheaper and has passable accuracy.
Oh my god, I was right! You are a generous creator, Scott!
The only reason Rayquaza beat Mewtwo is the dark types at the beginning and misplays. A replay would be great for both mons.
My headcanon is that the Torkoal was actually Professor Birch’s that May borrowed so she’d have fire type coverage until she got her own fire type in the form of Slugma
You using thunderbolt on wallace’s ludicolo until the very end psychic, had me yelling at the screen like wtf are you doing man
I know you are working through the back log but I am surprised you didn’t do a video for scarlet and violet
My Idea for the Torcoal is that the rival in Ruby, Emerald and Saphire does not seem like a confrontational person, I mean the last fight with them you have before they even get to fully evolve their starter. So I guess since that fight was scipable and it is the only one where they can have a Torcoal the rival just thought that Torcoal was to scary of a Pokemon and the reason why noone ever fought them there.
May was hungry and ate her Torkoal.
Babe wake up Scott uploaded again :)
Enjoyed it! I think the only pokemon that can dethrone Ray is Kyogre.
Hi Scott! Very enjoying video as always though surprising that Mewtwo struggled sp much in the early game. I really like your focus on data and statistics in all your playthrough and your constantly improving overlay. One suggestion: Can you mark the stats influenced by your chosen nature somehow? You did that in your earlier videos but now it is somehow missing! Thanks a lot for always entertaining me!
Scott actually talks about that in the video, these videos were released out of order. This is an earlier video before he made the changes to the overlay, so he has that issue fixed already.
@@pyriel6870 so, this is a reupload?
@@urmasslow no he's not uploading them in order. This one is brand new but he recorded it awhile ago, at the end of the video he has a leader board he puts up and under the chronology part he shows what order he played the pokemon in.
Hey man love your videos been subbed a long time now. I feel like this playthrough shouldn't count because so much of it was player error. I want to formally request a re-shoot of this 1.
Eventually
I was looking at Armando but while it learns water gun at level 13 in gen 4, in gen 3 it doesn't learn it until level 19.
ghost should have been special and dark should have been physical. fun video man, mewtwos still a beast.
@17:15 Don't forget about Leppa Berries! They can restore 10PP for a single move. You just picked some up on the previous route going up to Fortree!
I think this is the first time I've ever seen Mewtwo in Emerald. I never got him in OG emerald and none of my friends had them in Ruby or Sapphire so never got traded
You can get four nuggets between route 113 up to 121, iirc three of them are hidden and I'm not sure if you need an item finder to actually be able to grab them but they could help you get a tm you would want in the game corner sooner with the use of the amulet coin, not sure how big of a difference it would make on a Mewtwo run but I think it would be worth trying
cant wait for you to do sengo. I did a 1:48:32 with Sengo. I'ts actually Insane.
26:34 Yeah psychic type was nerfed a little in gens 2 and 3.
Shadow Ball being a physical attack makes me think Mewtwo uses it like the Rasengan from Naruto
8:54 Also, when the character collects the berries he for whatever reason destroys the plant as well. I never understood this, why did he do it? If he didn't destroy the plant there would have no need to plant a berry to replace it (also, this is one of the best songs of the game 😁)
Wasn't even her Torkoal, just a tortoise trundling by, decided WAR looked fun.
what are all of the badge bonuses and do they change with the region?
Wait so are you gonna do va video for groudon and requza
If Wallace is always going to set up rain dance on turn one, then using calm mind first turn (assuming you outspeed) means that thunder is the better option imo. Assuming you have something to one shot the wishcash, the rest should be one-hits, and with rain dance, thunder obviously bypasses the accuracy check and always hits.
In fact, all of the Elite 4 and the Champion tend to use a non-attacking move. You can use that to set up once with Calm Mind or Bulk Up or something.
@@iantaakalla8180 yeah good point. The E4 love to spam protect first turn
personally i think ghost is physical in earlier gens because the only ghost attacking move in gen 1 was lick, which actually makes sense to be physical, and then they just didnt change it until gen 4
Can we get a Deoxys race? Deoxys in Firered vs Deoxys in Leafgreen
My explanation for the Torkoal is that she just put it in the daycare and forgot about it like every trainer does to some pokemon at some point.
Torkoal drunk too much saltwater on the way to the next city and had to sit this one out.
Rayquaza also benefits because it resists a lot of common types (Fire, Water, Grass and Electric)
I seriously wonder how will the Regis do if you not let them explode at the start of the adventure. Starting in Platinum, they gain Stomp to prevent the Explosion softlock.
I have downloaded a Randomized Ruby rom and one of the starters is Regirock. In the wild, there are Psyducks and the second ability is Damp so I can just PP stall against them until level 9 when it learns Rock Throw.
@@ShadowtheTH-camr523 but that's a full randomizer. If they are your starter and you aren't randomizing the normal encounters, there is nothing with Damp in the first couple of routes, and you need to somehow beat your rival before you can even get your running shoes.
@@Kahadi I know
I actually have a three-way race of them in emerald in the next couple of months or so. I do something with some software to make sure I can still do the run. You're going to want to see it when it comes out
I totally agree that Wallace doesn't seem right as the Champion in Emerald. Not only is he barely involved in the story, but it means that both the 8th gym and the Champion are water-type specialists, which I find odd (even for a region so *infamously* covered in water).
15:04 He has a Skarmory and is flying everywhere :D
Gotta love some gen 3
I'm commenting before finishing so I may have already had my point answered.
Couldn't he of gone to the shipwreck get the ice beam Tm to smash through Sidney's grass types and drake's dragon types??
Steel *and* Stone?
Ste *ven* Stone?
For rock *and* steel types? (Armaldo/Cradily, Metagross/Skarmory, Aggron is both, and Claydol... is also on the team)
Don't know if that's a reach or not. LOL
You could've taught it Brick Break to have a Dark type counter some point before the Elite Four.
You could always do a race between Magcargo and Torkoal to see which is the objectively better team member for May.
0:53 dude imagine this fight in the anime, this 10 year old kid does his very first pokemon battle with a little dog and beats mewtwo, he will tell that story to his grandchildren xD
May needed a very hot pokemon to stop that meteorite from crashing on Earth so she traded her Torkoal with one of Flannery's Slugmas
Would love an optimized rayquaza run with fire move at the end and sometimes just attacking off rip
Steven is an “earth” trainer, every pokemon has Rock, Steel, or Ground as a type
