Rules and Explanations
Rules: (1) Only use the one Pokémon in Battle, others for HMs are fine. (2) No Items in battle (3) No Glitches* (4) Set Mode (5) No saving in the Elite Four (6) No evasion moves
Badge Boost "Glitch" Explanation: When you collect odd numbered badges the game boosts a stat by 12.5%. Brock gives ATK, Surge DEF, Koga SPE, and Blaine SPC (in game text is wrong). When any of your stats are modified (even by you using a move like Withdraw, or your opponent using Leer) the badge boosts are re-applied. So If you use Swords Dance, you also gain *an additional 12.5% in Speed/Defence/Special (on top of the 12.5% you were supposed to be getting). When you level up, the game corrects this error, and only the non-glitch 12.5% remains. Because of how difficult it is to avoid, I've allowed for it to be exploited, since opponents will spam Leer/Growl anyways, and this way battles are less random. Red/Blue are extremely buggy, so there's always going to be some glitches present, and because of how unavoidable this one is, it is allowed in runs, and considered more like a special Generation 1 mechanic as opposed to a glitch. - เกม
Man, I never realize how much I miss JRose until there's a new upload.
People say thata every few months
@@cyberdarkturtle6971 that just speaks to the quality
Yea, we got spoiled with month of jross in December. He felt pretty consistent before, then went super hard for that month.. and now it's been pretty slow. I miss them. Glad we have another at least today!
I was just rewatching some older runs I don’t remember watching the other day because I was missing this content
We had it good in December
I love how whenever Jrose uploads, everyone’s just glad to see him again…and they should be, he’s the king
Just glad he’s okay
Placing my comment here so Jrose11 knows I'm just glad to see him again.
He streams on twitch all the time
Just waiting for the year of Jrose11
He's my poketuber go too
Really blows my mind that the final gym leader has a fully evolved Pokemon that knows Tackle. The Gen 1 trainer move pools are really something else
I pay my respects to Generation 1 in that, without it, there would be no Pokemon period, but man...compared to Gen 4 even, it's an entirely different beast.
@@o0o371But then also the age of
"Normal types can totally do magic, right? No reason why Rattata shouldn't be able to learn Thunderbolt and Blizzard!"
@@pearofclubs6280 There's also Psyduck and Lapras who are psychic, but not psychic enough to be Psychic.
Don't forget the CHAMPION with his Arcanine who's strongest move is Ember, Rhydon with fury attack, and Exeggutor that doesn't even have 4 moves ☠️
@@ferrishthefish in all fairness, with how many pokemon can just learn psychic moves, psychic powers ain't all special
the psychic type is like the fighting type in that way, in that it shows extraordinary talent in not so extraordinary abilities. and considering psyduck has the exact _opposite_ of talent with its psychic abilities ...
i dont even care for gen 1, but watching these videos makes me love all the idiotic things in it, keep it up homie
Something interesting I noticed after randomly deciding to watch one of Jrose's old videos right after this one: He thought Magnemite would be in the Top 10 WORST Pokemon to do this challenge with, and it finished just outside the TOP 10 (for now).
Way to exceed expectations, magnet creature!
Yea but the rankings are just feeling at this point. Exeggcute is undoubtedly one of the worst and it's in the top 10, the levels factor in too much and don't consider leveling groups, and there's like 3 pokemon that were faster than Magnemite that are just lower because of reasons.
That vid was prior to the badge bust exploit.
@@ShinyTillDawn Really? The badge boost has been there for quite some time. Some might say it's as old as the game.
@@FoggyMcFogFace You know what I meant.
@@ShinyTillDawn no, I don't. The badge boost glitch has been known and used for pretty long now.
I think what makes Jrose so endlessly rewatchable is the consistency of format combined with the fact that each Pokemon has its own unique story. Where most Pokemon breeze through, some might suddenly hit a wall or vice versa. So fun to see where each struggles.
I like the idea of Magnemite using Horn Drill. I imagine it just spins the screw on top of its head really fast and rams it into the opponent lol
He’s back! The king has returned. Hope you are well JRose!
I get back from vacay, and Jrose drops another banger. I know you are probably sick of making the pokemon blue red runs, but I will never get sick of watching them. Rock on brother.
6:45 zero Pokemon learn Thunderbolt by level up in Gen 1, because it's a Gym Leader's TM. No Pokemon learn ANY of the Gym Leaders' TM moves in Gen 1. This is actually a thing they basically stuck with through Gen 3, and I think the goal was to make it so Gym Leader TMs always felt like substantial rewards. (Of course, the real way to make Gym Leader TMs feel like substantial rewards was always just to make them give you GOOD MOVES, but they didn't figure that out for a while)
The only exception is Pikachu, and only in Pokemon Yellow specifically. Because they didn't want you to feel obligated to use the TM on the Pokemon that was forced to be your starter.
Yeah, but there are still some weird ones, like how water gun is a tm even though most water types learn it (and learn surf for that matter). Ok I guess a bunch of normal types can learn water gun for coverage, but still. I don’t get the idea that everything in gen 1 was thought through carefully.
The Gen 3 variation was particularly odd since all of the attacking moves (sans arguably Overheat) you got from the gyms there felt like filler and were treated that way once they became available for level up in later gens. Sure, Gen 1 had Bide and Psywave which didn't work as intended, but everything else is useful for the point in the game where you get it. Heck, even Bide has come in handy in certain solo runs. Meanwhile Water Pulse from the final gym in RSE is a glorified Bubble Beam in a town which you need Surf and Dive to get to. The only moves that would have been worth saving for TM exclusivity there were the boosting moves, which ironically were the ones they *didn't* save, the Torchic line got Bulk Up and Calm Mind was on several legendaries. Not that many kids would use status moves, but you get the idea.
Yes! Was JUST wondering YESTERDAY "oh man, I wonder when we're gonna get some more red/blue from jrose!"
Glad to see you back on it!
This was me last week
This was me a month ago.
Same
You know your day just got way better than when Jrose uploads
Wait, what?
I found my GBA SP and my red version buried in some of old moving boxes deep in my closet a couple weeks ago. Haven't seen either in over a decade probably (other than when I was packing to move into my house a few years ago apparently). Was able to replace the cartridge battery and both cartridge and the GB are working perfectly. Have been playing it beating the elite four over and over and watching different TH-cam videos on the game. Stumbled upon your channel and have been catching up on all of these solo red/blue runs. Your videos are very entertaining. Not only are they entertaining but they are also very informative on the game. I have learned A TON from watching your videos that I honestly had no idea about 20 years ago when I was a kid playing red version. For that it has made my most recent playthrough very fun and interesting. Much different than just stacking all my Pokemon with the strongest STAB moves they could learn with no support moves other than softboiled or recover like I did back then lol. Sorry for the long winded comment just wanted to let you know how much I've enjoyed this series and how much it's taught me playing again making my newest playthrough a lot more fun than I was expecting it be :D
Are you using the crap out of the Badge Boost Feature yet?
@@MijmerMopper I have been testing around with it for sure. I am really having fun testing different Pokemon's with what would have like the best Toxic/double team/ maybe fly or dig and swift and other cool interesting combos. It's been a lot of fun trying all new strategies.
i speak for every one when i say we miss you man
Yeah, you're right about no Pokemon learning Thunderbolt via level up in gen 1, the exception being the Pikachu in Yellow
That's crazy but gen 1 for ya. I was literally thinking when he mentioned it in the video that there had to be at least one other than Pikachu that could but nope. It is the best electric until gen 2 and rain dance
I frequently forget Jrose is still doing these videos because I'm also watching Scott's Thoughts, Gym Leader Matt, RBY Pokemon Challenges, Mah Dry Bread, and probably a few others. I do appreciate the subtle differences in their styles, internal running gags, and cross-references.
“internal running gags”
Anyone else miss The Count?
@realperson69 He might think it got old but there's always a place in my heart for The Count.
@@realperson69"ha, ha, ha."
Magnemite using Ice Punch is one of those combos I could never even think about.
Thanks for this series it’s so fun.
Magenmite is one of my favorote Pokèmon. I've been looking forward to this one!
I'd really appreciate an episode where you explain us your method for planning a run, the research, the strategies, the calculations... all the behind the scenes would be very fun!
that would be a cool idea, maybe as a huge gen 1 finale video using every run as an example for certain roadblocks
As much as I love jrose talking about the NHL or current events on his twitch streams, nothing beats good old fashion jrose vids
I have been waiting for this day to come and it is finally here! Magnemite is my favorite Pokémon and I can't wait to see how this video turns out!
Ma boi, straight to the point and rolling out the puns
The final Horn Drill made me laugh out loud. Great work Jboss.
When you finish this series you might want to consider rerunning Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle again. Since they're so iconic to the generation, and because they made up your first three runs, it would be interesting to see how your strategies for them would have changed, and how much faster that can be run.
Also, I know that you've covered why you can't do Caterpie, Weedle, Metapod, Kakuna, and Magikarp in this style of run, but could you finish a run with those five together?
Out of all of them, weedle is the only one that can damage ghost types in this gen at all, and even then it's very little, and there is no double battles. I don't think that'd really work, maybe in the remakes.
@@MijmerMopperThat's true, but you can make two modifications. One would be to give Kakuna (and Metapod, I suppose) the moveset it gains by starting out as a Weedle, which gives you two bug Pokemon to hurt Agatha's three ghosts. The second is to add something like Ditto as the 6th member, since it has no innate strats to beat ghosts by itself (other than what the ghosts themselves provide), and Transform PP only goes so far (both from the move itself, the limit of 5 PP for your opponent's moves, and needing to switch out and switch back in to Transform again).
One of my favorite Gen 1 Pokemon!
Magnemite had a tougher time than I thought it would. I knew it'd struggle with anything rock-type, but it just didn't hit as hard as I thought it would. And doing Magnemite in Gen 2 or 3 wouldn't help its offense much because it doesn't learn a damaging Steel-type move until Gen 4! It does get Metal Sound, which is a great move, but no Magnet Bomb or Mirror Shot. Rain Dance + Thunder helps though. That said, the addition of the Steel type really helps its defenses.
Resisted by Grass, Dragon, and ground is immune.
"....which I don't believe any of them learn without getting this TM"
In Gen 1, Gym Leader TMs are all moves that cannot be learned by levelup.
HE'S BACK!!!! YES!!!! Magnemite is one of my favorites too.
Good to see you again.
I haven't started the video yet, but I already know how painful this is going to be.
i feel like Dewgong of all pokemon might be a really strong contender, it starts with a decently strong normal move in headbutt and a strong ice type move in aurora beam for brock, and it's in the medium fast level up group! could be a very interesting one since brock and misty are usually the big stopping points
Magnemite is one of my all time favs. Thx so much for this and godspeed Jrose. Nice to see something from you again.
Thanks again for another great video!! Always love the commentary on these!
I was so happy when I saw that this video had just been uploaded. I had been looking forward to see more of this series for quite a while. This really made my evening. Also I'm really happy to see this Magnemite run went a lot better than expected, Magnemite is one of my favorite Gen 1 Pokémon.
These always brighten my day, and this one was pretty unique too. Screech + Normal move 👌
I love hearing the genuine joy and fun you have doing these runs 🙂👍 I'm always excited when you drop a new video! Thanks for many hours of content JRose!!!
Always a good day when i see your videos in my feed. Keep up the great work!
Lets go Magnemite! Good to see a new red/blue Jrose11 run!
Been a bit since JRose uploaded, but he did NOT disappoint. I like how Magnemite did pretty okay asides from the nightmarishly long Brock section. Even the Elite 4 seemed..."average" for a pre-evolved Pokemon. Cool stuff to see. Also JRose INTENTIONALLY put off Erika because bad match-up, so no "accidently" forgetting her this time because he PURPOSELY went out of order. Fun times once again!
Good to see you still uploading! I started doing solo runs in Fire Red recently and it has been an interesting experience.
Dude.
The last run with koffing was sleeping in my "to watch list" for ages. I FINALLY watched it yesterday and what happens today ? a new jrose video.
it was a sign '-'
Good to see you back jrose :D
I started watching jrose before the month of jrose. Sometimes i find myself craving a jrose video though. I'm not sure if i would have rather had videos consistently spaced out, or just cram them all into 30 days for the holidays. I probably made my expectations too high. It's crazy he's coming on 50% of gen 1 pokemon solo runs.
That month definitely spoiled us. It had become a habit to wind down after work by watching a new video. I miss having that habit
There is no magneMITE about it - a new Jrose video puts me in the magneZONE for magneTONs of fun.
(I'm not sorry.)
YES! I had started re-watching runs from before because I was wanting more of your content. Glad to have you back!
Really enjoying the music! Wonderful to see a new video from you.
As you can see, Magneton is my favorite Pokemon, so I have been patiently waiting for him or Swagnamite and I was not disappointed. Thanks for all the content you have made over the years and can't wait for you to do Magnetgod himself soon! You will surely do him justice. Your runs are always a welcomed addition whenever you upload and keep it up!
Are you a magnezone fan then
@@OSCnomorethat's a very divisive subject betweenn Magnemite fans
Magneton definitely had that Gen I aesthetic. Dewgong is my favorite.
@@Q-gf8vbGen 1 Aesthetic... what? We're just the same pokemon but 3 of them, Ala Dugtrio and Dodrio? 😂
Been waiting for your electrifying return, Jrose!
Magnemite is one of my original favorites, and I'm glad to see that it had a successful run! Keep it up with these fun runs, I'll always tune in for the ones I like the most.
That was less painful than I thought it would be. Great video as always. Thank you for the upload.
Now Magnemite was always a staple on my early game team in B2W2, but I worry it won't be as good before it gets its steel type. Let's find out!
Wooooo new JRose! And such a magnetic episode with shocking twists! I’ll see myself out..
Been loving your content for years, keep it up mate.
Missed your content! Glad to see something new!
I came across your channel not long ago. Brother, you’re the truth!! I love these runs and I love how you use “we” instead of “I” as if we are all part of these runs. Keep uploading and I know it takes time for these videos. Especially when you footage was lost when you beat Brock with just Magikarp and you re did the run just to capture again. Brother you are a straight up savage
I'm a simple man, I see Jrose upload, my day is better
Great colour palette as always. Nice to see you again in my feed!
I recently found this channel and have really enjoyed your gen 1 runs. Gen 1 is the generation I played as a kid so there is a ton of nostalgia watching these videos.
Hoping to see Jrose do porygon soon!
Can we petition him to name it Soldier? After Electric Soldier Porygon?
Question Jrose, why is Magikarp not on the tier list at the end? I know it wasn't for a long while because it was the first pokemon you attempted that couldn't finish the game, but now Weedle has that "honour" as well, and it's on the tier list.
Bc he used items
@@cherry9787 did he? That's a damn good reason then :) Been a good while since I watched that video, might need a refresher!
Because with Weedle it's theoretically possible without the use of items (even if it needs the luck equivalent of being hit by like a billion lightning strikes). With Magikarp/Caterpie/Metapod, it's simply impossible due to game design.
@@samperez1727Iirc correctly it's not even theoretically possible. Someone did the math and even with crits there's not enough PP even at max to beat all 5 of Agatha's pokemon (I think it doesn't even get past 3)
Even a TAS run with Maximum Badge Boosts Always On still only left Weedle with like 14 PP.
@@nolongeraperson You only require the Poison Stings for the Haunter and two Gengars. Golbat and Arbok can take the leftover Poison Stings plus Struggle. Mind you, I don't know exactly how much HP is needed at minimum for Struggle against Golbat and Arbok, and Agatha's random switches are needed so all three ghosts faint before you run out of Poison Sting. Also no Super Potions from Agatha if possible 😖. Still not fun to attempt in real life.
I was just binge watching all the episodes I missed from your month of Jrose because I was in bootcamp at the time. You always have great timing!!
Yay a new video! I love having these on in the background. Hope to see more!
This is what I was missing. Love when you upload
Well you just made my week, love when you post Jrose
I’m pausing my movie to watch this! Always a good day when Jrose posts 🔥
Just want to say, your videos are always so fun to watch and I look forward to all your uploads. And yet another amazing video, thank you for all you do.
It’s crazy how I thought I was burned out watching these and now it feel like I haven’t seen one in so long so um glad ur back 😊
MDB mentioned you in one of his videos (in a good way) and I was thinking oh yeah not seen a jrose video for awhile. Glad you are back
I was just thinking about Jrose’s channel the other day, anxious for the next upload. Perfect timing. So happy you posted again
Thanks for the upload! Can’t wait to see more
So hyped for another vid! 🎉
If you're ever sick of doing solo runs in the same game
I love your r/s/e videos too and when you use more than 1 Pokémon
Great to see a new vid!
Cant wait for an Arbok video!!
Arbok is my fav mon :D
i check this channel almost daily for uploads and it is so refreshing when you post
I was so excited to see you in my feed. Welcome back to the king!!
Pokemon that you were never meant to have until the middle game are wild for this challenge, to save space GF just…didn’t give them any moves before they’re encounterable.
Dude it’s been so long. Love your work and thank you so much. Love these videos so much!!
Glad to see you back with another run!
Thanks for yet another video jrose, I love your stuff
Good to see you again! I was just thinking about your videos yesterday.
I’m so glad your back!! Icon! Thank you for your content! It pushes me to be better!
Always a huge treat seeing your videos! Much love
I was just looking yesterday to see if you uploaded, glad to see another and hope you're having a good life!
Back with another one! Love broski!
I needed this today. Welcome back, JRose!
“Thunderbolt does not effect Rhydon.” “Thunderbolt does not effect Sandslash.” “Thunderbolt does not effect Graveler.”
Every time I see you upload, it makes my week, man. Love your videos, love your jokes. Just good vibes all around. ^.^
Your content never fails to entertain. I'm so happy I found your channel. I think it was that classic Magikarp vid that appeared on my screen.
Unique, top-tier quality and y'know there's just sumthin aboucha. Can't wait till Jigglypuff gets a Tiermate.
I have been listening to your content for the last two years as a sleep aid. It’s awesome listening to your strategies to calm my mind after an awful day at work. Great content as always jrose. 😁😄
It was a really nice suprise to see another upload.
Nice to see you back, hope you're feeling better!
Love your videos Jrose! Please never stop!
God I love these videos. You do great work my dude
Been missing you Jrose. I always recommend all your videos to my friends. they're super fun to binge watch
Nice to see you back buddy! One of my favorite channels.
I love your content been watching your content for ages but finally subscribed. You're one of the reasons I started my channel with pokemon content. Such an inspiration and you've nearly done all the original 151, Amazing. Thanks for all the hours of entertainment.
You're back! I hope all is well, and I can't wait to watch the video
I was just checking your channel today wondering when you would upload again and here you are ✊🏾 always great content
I love how half the comments are talking about Jrose returning. Welcome back man, we missed you.
Good to see ya back like the solo runs.
Always a positive to see a video from you.
Haven't watched your video yet, but as soon as it poped in my frontpage, i made a pogchamp face. Can't wait to have 1h of free time to watch it
Dat finale though XD
Fantastic as always!
