    • @mr.krustykrust
      @mr.krustykrust 5 ปีที่แล้ว +77

      Seeing as the “all icons” category on speedrun.com is like 11 hours and that’s just visiting every legendary, it’d be around 15 hours but seeing that video would be cool. What’d be cooler is seeing how fast he can recruit all Pokémon.

    The basic trainer card is actually harder to get in the Johto remakes than it is in the other games. In the other games, the only criteria is existing, however in the Johto remakes if you want to get access to the basic trainer card you have to also walk down some stairs.

    If you struggle with the battle tower, try this tactic:
    Team:
    Latios (@Choice Scarf)(a speedy nature helps)
    -- Trick
    -- Thunder Wave
    -- Recover
    -- Charm
    Registeel (@Leftovers)
    -- Substitute
    -- Curse
    -- Amnesia
    -- Iron Head
    Garchomp (@Lum Berry) (Jolly or speedy nature helps)
    -- Substitute
    -- Swords Dance
    -- Outrage
    -- Earthquake
    When the battle starts, you immediately use Trick to transfer the Choice Scarf to the opponent's pokemon, locking him into the first move he uses in battle. Depending on what that move is, you resume a certain strategy. If the opponent is locked in a physical move, use Thunder Wave and 3x Charm if possible, while Recovering when needed. If it's a low PP special move (eg. Fire Blast or Hydro Pump), use the same Thunder Wave + 3x Charm tactic, because after his low PP runs out, the opponent will begin to Struggle for physical damage. A high PP special move just needs a Thunder Wave if possible. If any of the aforementioned scenarios take place, use the corresponding setup and switch to Registeel. If the opponent gets locked in a non-damaging move, switch to Garchomp after an optional Thunder Wave. With Registeel, start with Substitute and immediately start boosting your stats with 6x Curse and 3x Amnesia, while replacing your Substitute when needed. The more you boost, the longer the fights take, but the smaller the risk of Battle Tower luck hax screwing you over. Registeel will tank almost anything, certainly when fully boosted. Most pokemon won't even be able to break his Subsitute. When you are confident that your stat boosts will be able to sweep the rest of the enemy team, finish off the Scarfed enemy with Iron Head, if it hasn't already finished itself with Struggle by now. Sweep both remaining opponent's pokemon with Iron Head. An opponent locked in a non-damaging move or an electric type move will be much faster to deal with. Switch to Garchomp, have him Substitute + 3x Swords Dance. When fully charged up, use Earthquake on Steel types and Outrage on all the rest. By the time Outrage confuses Garchomp, almost all teams will be already swept by an insanely powerful Outrage. Not always though, so Lum Berry will get you out of confusion for a second round of Outrage, which I haven't seen any team survive. Every battle is different, but this team gives you many options, so you'll have to think about which way is best. What this tactic does is nearly eliminate the infamous Battle Tower hax, which tend to strongly favour the AI RNG-wise. I like how almost any move the AI is likely to use on Latios is resisted by Registeel, it almost never got in trouble, making me feel that I lost control of the battle only 1 or 2 times in a 119 (and counting) win streak.

    • @Axelerati0n
      @Axelerati0n 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@5ashll303 For me it always worked like a charm. Once you get a feeling for which strategy path to follow at each different occasion, you eliminate most of the bad luck that usually screws you over in Battle Tower. And as far as natures, EV's and IV's go, I'd imagine they can help you but are not necessary. The strategy is built around safe and patient plays and lots of stat boosts and substitutes (read: long battles), so I think individual stat differences are marginally important. If you are not confident with your pokemon's stats, just always fully boost up and replace your substitutes immediately.

      @@5ashll303 Sure, a speedy nature can be useful, Latios is primarily for setting up so his stats don't matter too much, you can always compensate in EV distribution if you don't feel confident. But know that any special move that hits Latios hard won't do much against Registeel, that's part of the strategy. So if you can get the Trick and Thunder Wave off while using Recover, you'll be fine.

    There actually is a way to get event Pokémon and items on the older DS games. It involves changing your DSI/3DS DNS settings I believe. I did it to get Victini in Pokémon Black a few months ago. I can’t remember the entire process to doing it but there are guides that I found on google when I did it back then.

    It's something seeing this after everyone started complaining about the 30$ expansion pass. I had no idea it takes this much investment in the older games. As I grew up I just picked up like one game per gen. Without realizing how much you need if you don't do that.
