Can You Beat Pokémon Crystal When Each Move Can Only Be Used Once?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- After every single battle, versus trainers or wild Pokémon, any moves used are removed from the game. They're no longer available to use. Under those strict conditions, how far can you possibly make it in Pokémon Crystal? Can you beat the whole game?
This challenge has consumed me for an embarrassingly long time. Finally, it's over. Thanks for watching!

Tough to hear you say this concept doesn't pull viewers considering how much effort it must take. I certainly love it!
I thought it was super interesting.
Have to say that I'm a fan of this as well.
Yeah, it's just not being recommended to people enough. This was a great challenge and video but it only popped up on my recommended now.
Yeah I just got this video recommended today. Never been to this channel before, but would have 100% watched the first one when it came out if TH-cam had recommended it to me. This is such a fun concept and I would personally love to see other gens.
It’s probably bc these “can you beat pokemon…” videos have been extremely outplayed in general so people already know the answer. Yes you can beat Pokémon with… anything
Ooo a new and unique challenge that’s rare around TH-cam!
He only come up with the best challenges on TH-cam! And enjoy is quality over quantity approach
Agreed. This is so much better than "Can i beat Pokemon Red with only a Geodude!!!" Yes.... yes you can.
For real though…it’s getting so old.
@@m1j1browning Same with "Can you beat a Pokémon nuzlocke with only ... Pokémon?"
can you beat pokemon yellow with only yellow pokemon????
This is seriously impressive, this must have taken forever to finish.
Or what
Audience retention is weird. I really enjoyed the first 'one use' challenge, and liked this one a lot as well!
Thanks for the great content.
Yeah, it seems like the correlation between quality of video/challenge and number of views is very weak. This video is pretty much perfect imo (interesting/difficult challenge, good narration etc), definitely deserves more views. I'd sooner be looking up marketing/SEO strats than give up on this kind of content because it's definitely great quality
@@loulou3676 I'll be honest, I think the last one got a low reception probably has more to do with the offhand comment made earlier on about how the run petered out at the second gym. It makes sense to me that *that* one wouldn't pull many viewers, whereas this, a game that goes a much longer distance, would.
This is definitely an impressive feat, I can only imagine the planning that went into this one
This is a really unique challenge concept. I was actually genuinely wondering if it was possible to complete the game! Thanks so much for taking the effort to go through with making this.
Hello Danganronpa fan
I didn't think this was possible you absolute legend
I think u spoiled it for me cuz of top comment but yes he is a legend
I feel bad that you felt the series tanked on views enough to not keep doing it cause it’s such a cool idea but it’s definitely tricky to title it and have it communicate what you’re doing
I thought the puns were absolutely Goldeen.
Wow I genuinely didn't think this would be possible even with the extra moves from gen 2. Thanks so much for taking the time to run these challenges!
NGL, the most thought out, exciting yet relaxing, well edited, video. You are so good at these. I wish I could get a ETU video every day but I know these take insane time, preparation, and skill, and just want to say we appreciate it!
This one is longer, hopefully it works out!!!
Welcome back FJ! I applaud your thought and effort put into this and you’re allowed to not do this for other gens for the sake of your sanity
this is my favorite challenge on TH-cam, and I really enjoyed the first one as well. It’s a shame that they aren’t super popular, as I would love to see this in emerald
Hoping this becomes more popular for you in the future! Such a great challenge idea; incredibly unique.
One of the most interesting challenges I've seen out of any channel in a while, nice work.
I love this series and all the creative ideas on the whole channel.
Quagsire and Lanturn are the best Johto Pokémon though
I appreciate the level of effort made to even complete this challenge!!!
This might have been a bear to make, but it was a joy to watch. Thanks for being the only man bold enough to make it happen. Loved every minute of it, amazed you got there in the end. Well done, FJ, it was great.
This has to be one for the history books. An incredibly impressive challenge!
I genuinely think this is the most impressive video I've ever seen. Is there anything else other than like, subscribe, and comment I can do? Genuinely, you deserve something for this, it is amazing
Share the channel and the video with friends, go watch his other videos, and like, comment, and share those as well! Best part? It’s all free!
@@kingcygnus
Although I absolutely agree with your sentiment, time isn't free. It's the most valuable commodity we have.
Making sure I didn't look at the time bar at all during this video was the best decision as it meant I had literally no idea when it would come close to ending, so I was always on the edge of my seat
I for one would definitely watch more entries in this series, this was incredible!!
This is incredible. I'm so sorry your videos don't get enough attention. As someone working on my own challenge, this is an amazing feat of dedication and patience. Thank you so much for not giving up.
Keep fighting, dude! >=)
Wow, you can't be stopped. I'm certainly not complaining, however.
Holy shit, congrats you absolute madman
I always enjoy your longer form videos, but this one gave me a rising sense of anxiety throughout like I was watching a bridge collapsing in super slow-motion.
Good stuff, excellent job.
This is equally incredible and insane. It was extremely satisfying to watch until the end. No one else could ever pull this off because they don't have the sheer determination and patience that you do. You honestly make the best videos. This one is now literally my favourite TH-cam video of all time. Please keep it coming!
That last rival battle, the elite four, and Red... It was amazing!
This must have taken so much research!
Absolute mad lad, good job on beating Blaine's Blastoise! Seems to me most challenge runners stop after the Elite Four because "hurr, the credits rolled so the rest of the game doesn't count!", so it's refreshing to see someone go the extra mile, especially with such an insane challenge
This bugs me most for B/W challenges since it has 2 post games
I'm surprised to see that this challenge isn't more popular. Man, this is so interesting, stressful and enjoyable at the same time! I'd never imagined you could go further than one or maybe two gyms. Great video!
I am without words... you are a legend
Commenting for the algorithm because it's a crime that this original, clever and entertaining series isn't getting the views it deserves.
Really... this is incredible...
I am used to see crazy pokemon challenges and i never saw such ambitious run being succesful.
I hope your channel gets more subscribers, you deserve it.
Yo , congrats on completing this challenge, must've taken you an eternity
THE LEGEND HAS RETURNED
Dude, that was SO IMPRESSIVE, I am in awe of the amount of effort and planning you put in to make that work and honestly I was holding my breath through that Red battle. Seriously congratulations on achieving this, what an incredible challenge!
Sorry to hear this isn't more popular than it should be. This is absolutely amazing. For what it's worth, I think I speak for most people who watched this when I say I'm very grateful for this very cool concept and the time and effort you put into this. Much appreciated good sir!
I am 30 seconds in and completely impressed already
Got no idea why this isn't more popular...most creative and interesting challenge I've ever seen!! Great video!
i really love this series, and it's a shame it isn't more popular, therefore not worth the time.
im shocked this was possible! very impressive
Holy crud! This was so thrilling, especially towards the end! Congrats on making it all the way through! Very impressive! More people should see this!💕
major props for the dedication you put into this challenge! i enjoy watching and mainly listening to these long vids from you especially at night, they help me fall asleep. 😌 love the effort, soothing voice and also that sweet alliteration at 17:16 👌🏼
I don't know if people properly appreciate how clever your writing at times. That alliterative bit about Gyarados vs Steelix was great.
That was incredible! I can’t believe you managed to get to Red. I really like this challenge and I’m a bit sad you’re not going to continue it. But I also understand why, and it’s a shame this type of video isn’t more popular, you deserve plenty of recognition for this
Insane dedication! Huge congrats for the accomplishment and a big thanks for the entertainment. I'm certainly sad to hear we won't be getting any more of these but can understand it.
Edit: I wrote this comment while you were on the Elite 4 and was entirely sure you wouldn't do the Kanto stuff. I can't fathom how much time the planning alone must've taken.
I'm so glad I took the time to watch this video. Good stuff Enter The Unown.
That was by far the most impressive pokemon challenge run I've ever seen. Sure, speedruns can break the games in half, and single pokemon runs can be tough, but this clearly took an ENORMOUS amount of effort, both planning and grinding resets. But in the end, the shiny beedrill was totally worth it.
There are tons of "Can you beat Pokemon..." plays out there but few if ANY push the envelope like this. Much respect for the effort.
Aye homie, this challenge alone puts you on a tier above others. It isn't the most glamorous run but it shows so much attention to detail and planning that it takes to finish, and it showcases your knowledge of the game. Excellent job
The concept, execution, commentary, it's all excellent. It's a shame it doesnt draw people in, this is so unique it really deserves more attention. I think these videos would be more appreciated if more people knew they were out there.
And I'm really happy you got to complete the challenge! Even for someone who loves a good puzzle and a bit of strategy, my head hurts thinking about all the thinking this challenge needs! Well done - an excellent video! 👍
This was super interesting and it's a cool concept I dont think I could ever win a challenge like this or make it past the first gym
sad because this series is 100x more intresting than any other ones on youtube
It might not draw many viewers, but I think it should. This is miles more interesting than the countless "can I beat (GAME) with (ONLY ONE WEAK POKEMON)" runs that have become popular recently. Nothing wrong with those, mind, but I feel like the skill and difficulty behind this challenge makes it more worth the watch. Good work ETU.
I just wanted to comment; this was a REALLY interesting challenge. The planning, the sheer time it must've taken to catch all the legendaries to win, grinding out game corner....I fear the sheer scope and structure of future games might not make it feasible but really glad it worked here.
This is one of my favorite videos on TH-cam for the sheer dedication this must have taken
17:17 that rolled so nicely
Igglybuff being useful is not something I'd thought I'd hear but on challenge runs, you find the best help in the weirdest Pokemon. Great job all around, I thought it would probably take till gen 4 to finish a game but here you are beating Red. This was very entertaing and I'm sorry not too many people were interested in the first video. Congrats on completing, Arceus knows this must've been a chore.
Ayy new ETU video!!!! Genuinely so blown away by all the effort u put into ur vids :') also this was the first challenge in a while where i genuinely had NO idea how itd go, huge kudos!!!!
What an amazing Journey. Nice job and thank you for making this. I enjoy you running around johto with an igglybuff, beedrill, gayrados, entei, raiko, and Hoho
As someone who has done challenge runs that require a ton of patience and planning, as well as knowing pokémon reasonably well:
Holy cow, this is seriously amazing. This seems like a monster of a challenge. Well done, and really nice presentation, great video :)
One of the more fascinating thing to me personally is, that you didn't seem to turn off moves. Even if you just turned them back on for the video, that's still most of the time °-°;
That was damn impressive. All the time, research and calculating you did... I salute you, F.J. and as always, the commentary was on point. Love your content
This is such an insane challenge. One of the best I’ve ever seen. I have no idea why this isn’t more popular.
This was crazy I'm glad you kept going after the first challenge!
I just suscribed to you because of this video, so it's a shame it isn't more popular, as you mentioned. I had actually already watched the blue one, but the fact that you went ahead and tried it in crystal was what convinced me to suscribe. you absolute legend
Thank you for your creative content!
A lot of "pokemon challenges" are often just brute force solo runs or drawn out Nuzlocke runs. Not that those are bad, but it's refreshing to see a challenge pop into my subscriptions that makes me think "huh... /Can/ you do that???"
Please don't feel discouraged, Even if your videos don't get the recognition it deserves please don't stop because trust me we all love your amazing content. Please carry on making unique and fun concepts.
I hate to hear that these videos don’t perform as good as you want them to. I struggle with the same problem. However, I really enjoyed this video! This must’ve been so tedious, so mad respect for persevering.
That has to be one of if not the most impressive thing I've ever seen. The video is great and really entertaining! I can't imagine how difficult and long the run was. I can't wait to see what you have coming up.
It's a shame these dont do well, it's my favorite thing that you do.
I only just saw this challenge run for a moment I thought it was insanely difficult by only using each move one ever, which I'm 100% sure is impossible. This is such an interesting concept, I feel like it could get easier in later gens with more moves available.
This may be the single most impressive Pokémon challenge run I have ever seen. You just keep one-upping yourself. I do not even know what else to say. Mind-blown.
And not just the run, your presentation is superb as well. The editing was top-notch (loved how you walked up to the grunts in the radio tower, for example, with the moves you used on screen). And the alliterations gave me a big smile.
Wooo it came back! I was waiting for it! This is amazing content, thank you!
Holy shit this challenge was wild. I’ve watched so many pokemon challenge runs and seriously this one kept me on the edge of my seat. Good job strategizing this run, I can’t fathom how much work was involved!
Incredible effort put into this, sorry to hear that you feel like it doesn’t appeal to people. This appeared in my recommended and I really enjoyed it, so that’s something at least? I’ve subscribed - great video!
the sheer amount of planning and thinking ahead this must have taken, props to you my dude!
Never got either this or the previous one recommended to me sadly, love it and seriously, good work with this idea's execution!
And I totally did not sit here for like 10 minutes with my mind blanking out the word 'execution' while writing this
Now THIS sounds like an actual challenge! Super excited for this long video, so commenting before watching! Thanks for uploading, & will probably comment more later!
Amazing content. I really appreciate the work that went into this.
I do enjoy this concept! It's a darn shame it's not found to be worth the time. I'll subscribe based off of this video, even though it was your "what if Ash woke up on time" series that introduced me to your channel.
It’s probably disappointing to work so hard on something, learn afterward that it wasn’t so popular, while most likely being in the middle of working this video. I would understand if you didn’t want to continue this type of challenge, but your effort is not unnoticed. Still a very enjoyable video.
Wow, it's amazing how beating Crystal is even possible at all with this rule set. Very nice job managing your moves to somehow make this work. And yeah, I can tell that this would take a ton of time and effort, so I can understand not wanting to try this in any of the later generations.
this is amazing, a big ass flex to every pokeplayer. You seriously deserve more views
I'm sad that this type of challenge doesn't pull a very large number of views because I really enjoy it. But I don't fault you for not wanting to put what must be a massive effort for little reward.
I do appreciate all the work you put in to investigate this though!
I enjoy all of your videos because they are soo creative and diverse! It adds a special twist to the usual pokemon challenge and makes watching very interesting and exciting👏☝
The mere fact you dedicated this much heart and effort into a video without expecting much viewership in return earns a sub of respect in itself. Amazing job dealing with the very limited challenge as well, I couldn't even fathom planning for something like this. Also, Bronze was well worth it, he was the mascot of the challenge as far as I'm concerned
I don't want you to torture yourself, but if you ever feel like picking this up for more games, I would love to see it. This is a fantastic idea and you did it very well.
A shame to see that you might not attempt further challenges. I just found your channel through this video being recommended to me and I'm glad I did. You have a nice, chill voice that stands out well among the other PokeTubers who are constantly shouting and hyping themselves up for the smallest of things like their audience are children with an attention span of two seconds. I can't wait for future videos!
What a creative and difficult challenge. I can't believe you made it through. That's seriously impressive. What a ride!
I just love the string of alliteration at 17:16
This is super impressive. I also really enjoyed watching it. Kind of sad to hear you say you won't be doing another one, but I totally understand with it not pulling the viewers, especially when there is so much work that goes into it. I would've gone insane doing it and you absolutely nailed it! As always, a great video and I have enjoyed your channel and all your unique challenge videos
"We can go after sudowoodo who instantly improves our team"
Words that were never spoken before
I wish you would make more of these! I don’t think they’re unpopular, I think TH-cam’s algorithm is finicky. Love your channel, incredibly underrated, you are one of my favorite Poketubers
In the national park bug contest, there's a blue haired guy named Nick, he is programmed to catch either Schyter or Pinsir, he's not guarantied to appear, but if he does, you almost can't win
you know i usually dont like these "can you beat" videos but this was entertaining and exciting from the start cause on every battle it feels like "yeah no chance he'll find a way around that" would be nice to see that in every region.
new viewer btw so you did pull at least 1 new viewer here :D
This was seriously impressive from start to finish, and I thoroughly enjoyed both this and the first one! I understand why you wouldn't wanna continue this challenge going forward, but it's really unique and you've blown me away by managing to beat smash Crystal this handily with a crazy limitation like this!
I'm surprised that this series isn't doing better than it is. I've never seen your channel before, but I knew that I wanted to watch this just from the title.
Honestly these one use challenges are great it shows some real skill and gives the opportunity to show off a ton of different moves
