Hey guys, lots more content coming your way. It'll be shorter form, but since there's not much to do I figured more content will be good. I think you'll like it, it's a twist on a common challenge. First videos should be out in a couple days!
happy to hear more videos are on the way
*Fewest number of battles.
Amount = unquantifiable things (amount of water, amount of fun, amount of time)
Number = finite (number of movies, number of Pokémon caught, number of hours)
You're welcome. Make the fix. :)
Chimechoo I agree with you
Honesty I like the longer form videos like this
yes
*Pikachu* :(
*JRose* Look at this potion! Look at this potion! Look at this potion!

I died when I read this. I never knew you could do that in yellow before haha
Jangling keys in front of a baby be like
I do like the irony of Oak showing up to berate the rival for not caring about his Pokemon enough in front of the new champion, a guy whose strategy centered heavily on sacrificing his Pokemon as meat shields so the important one could shake off confusion/stat drops and get the experience.
"meat shields" 😂😂
Hahahaha so damn true XD
Oak speech here is so sooo sooooooo fucking creepy after playing the romhack firered team rocket edition.
@@magusperde365 it's even creepier after you play the fire red romhack where he rapes his grandson as punishment for losing
@@AT-il2ej that .. just sounds like a bad romhack
I love the way he explains everything as if it's a guide, like other people would be insane enough to attempt this :p
Luvalon I think its not like a guide..its more like a presentation I would present to my class or whatever
I agree but this what made him famous for his first magikarp run. We love it!
He does a great job of selling how difficult his challenge runs are, instead of just saying "i did this, then I did that...". it's good storytelling
I saw this exact same comment on another of his videos
Hahaha Duuuuuude, I literally just said that aloud to myself! It's nice that treats it like an instructional video! Ha!
Falkner: "Oh sure, you see ME use a level 9 Pidgeotto and call hax, but mr. Ash-expy here catches one in the wild and you don't bat an eye"
It's not a potion. It's ketchup. Duh.
:P
The Ash in the anime did the same thing also, I think thats why they included the pidgeotto in the game with 1% chance
@@onijester56I think you were trying to comment on the one below.
@@EdokLock Not only Ash catches a Pidgeotto in the forrest but also he challenges Brock with Pidgeotto and Pikachu and almost succeeds. Never thought that he is a strategic genius.

*"They're going second. How did they know they were gonna need that Potion?"*
In Gen 1, the AI decides the move it's going to use not only knowing which move you've chosen, but also the result of your move (miss or not, damage dealt, switch Pokémon). So it knows that the move you use will hit, and that their Pokémon will still have remaining HP.
That's also why the AI will sometimes use a move that's strong against the Pokémon you've just switched to, even though it's obviously not supposed to know you are going to switch, and which attack type the new Pokémon will be weak against.
he is asking how that makes sense logically
@@turtleplays5234 I know. I wrote my comment for the benefit of the viewers that don't know why the game behaves this way.
@@turtleplays5234 I'm pretty sure her ghost pokemon, or possibly even her, have some level of psychic ability by virtue of their ghost typing.
If we’re speaking logically, she could just let whatever happens happen, and react to it, much like if it were the anime. Of course, in game terms, this is basically cheating, but we all know how odd the programming of gen 1 is.
@@jcruz821 but all of the trainers can do it
In Yellow, the AI of Lorelei's Dewgong is actually programmed differently to any other NPC Pokémon in the game, this is to prevent the Rage softlock from happening
Weird that That's what they foresaw being a problem, out of all the weird shit in gen 1 games
@@KreepyKat911 to be fair in yellow they also fixed the Cinnabar coast
@@KreepyKat911 I think some people were annoyed by the fact that Dewgong kept spamming rest
Maximum Valkyr also in yellow if you don’t have enough money and try to go into the safari zone the guy will get mad at you and eventually let you in with one safari ball
@@KreepyKat911 If you save in Lorelei's room with a Psychic-weak Pokemon that can only use Rage it bricks your save file, not just the battle. Dewgong will use nothing but Rest, never run out of PP, and you can never defeat her with Rage. You essentially have to purposely set it up, but it does brick the file.
Jrose:"I don't like inconsistent strategies"
*Starts gambling*
Professor Oak: "You understand that your victory was not just your own doing! The bond you share with your Pokémon is marvelous!"
Jrose: "Most of my time was spent gambling in a known mob joint with rigged slot machines."
The real 200 IQ move would be keeping Focus Energy instead of teaching swift and using it to lower the crit rate of Slash so you can take advantage of Swords Dance.
Eternamax brain plays
That's... actually brilliant. A use for Gen1 Focus Energy! Amazing!
"Who wants to spend 3 hours or more at the game corner?"
8 year old me forming an early gambling addiction:
meanwhile he plays yellow 17 times
ohh yes I remember the good old days getting the dam porygon@_@
I'm pretty sure gen 1 NPC cheat and select their actions AFTER you've already performed yours
Actually, it chooses the move that is super effective against your type even if it doesn't inflict damage
It does both.
They definitely appear to.
Correct. Most of the more major trainers have AI that always tries to use moves of a type that's effective against your pokemon. This can lead to strange situations, like Lance's team only using moves like Agility or Barrier if your pokemon is the weakest to Psychic moves (this is why a Venomoth beat Lance's Dragonite in Twitch Plays Pokemon since enemy pokemon never run out of PP). Not only this, but the AI picks moves after you've input what you're going to do. An example of this cheating is when you're facing Blues' Exeggutor who has Sleep Powder. If your pokemon is asleep, you'll obviously try waking it up with an Awakening or the Pokeflute. When your pokemon is awake again, Blue should use an attacking move if he wasn't cheating. But instead, he uses Sleep Powder again, since it was picked when the pokemon was awake, rather than the start of the turn.
Enemies choose their attack after yours, it chooses super effective moves and won't choose status attacks if you are already have a status effect.
Did no one tell jrose that pikachu beats onyx if you aim for the horn?!
duuuude smh i guess jrose just ain't the best there ever was
That's rhydon
You have to get the Onix wet first XD use the sprinkler system
He didn't realize you have to use thundershock on the gym itself to start a fire.
He also needs to get juiced up by peddling on a bike powered generator.
1:08:48 Hey you're the champion but remember to get HM Flash from my aide!
Goddamnit Professor Oak! GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
It’s your authenticity that separates you from the rest truly a gem on the platform
Also his runs are significantly tougher then 95% of others on the platform
Fall Brendan they’re also creative, since he was one of the first to come up with these challenges. Unlike all those TH-camrs who just go through the entire Pokedex in order asking if they can beat the game with each Pokemon.
Well said
True. Those other youtubers are honestly so boring to watch. They have no limitations imposed in their challenge and they just overlevel every one of their Pokemon. With him, you can see that he really comes up with strategy to produce more consistent results and makes the challenge an actual challenge instead of pure luck and overleveling. I say pure luck because RNG still plays a big part in Pokemon but stilllll
Jrose is the goat when it comes to Pokémon challenge runs!
Best strategy: develop a gambling addiction to hire a prayer mantis hitman to tear apart your enemies

Thats pretty impressive, I mean how often do you get to hear "I lost because I got a critical hit"
Lol true
Classic gen 1 memes
When you’re shiny hunting too
Gunnermaniac lost 3 runs in a row on Pokemon Saphire due to his Wingul crit a Geodude on the first gym.
The precision of the decisions on that run is insane.
That's SO COMMON in almost every pokemon game, almost as much as losing due to not 100% accuracy moves missing. That's why the regular critical ratio since US/UM is 1/24 instead of 1/16.
Blaine: Doesn't use super potions on his full health pokemon.
Me: Impossible
Blaine using attacks Was the weirdest thing in this Run.
I have never experienced Blaine wasting items personally.

When you realize your strat of using debuffs/buffs turned Pokemon into a Megaten game
Thank god no one used Dekuda
Buffs are important in competitive. Honestly, most good RPGs have buffs matter, it's just that older RPGs tend to be badly balanced and have status and buffs not matter. Megaten had then matter since the beginning.
REMEMBER BADGE BOOSTS
Also, the Brock fight literally brought me to tears from nostalgia.
My first game was Pokémon blue, and besides a couple episodes from the anime I knew nothing about type matchups, move effectiveness etc. And Charmander was my starter.
So I did what any 8 year old would have done. Catch a bunch of Pokémon and pelt Geodude and Onix with status moves until they were weak enough to whittle them down with Scratch and Ember.
Never used status moves in any game
Always seemed like a waste of time as a kid always unlearned them right away
Jrose: I tried with Kadabra and won, but I rejected the strategy because sometimes I was relying too much on luck.
Also Jrose: GAMBLING LIKE CRAZY TO OBTAIN A SCYTHER
Alternatively: Social Distancing to beat Pokemon Yellow
"let's not kid ourselves, were all bored as fuck"
"He got unlucky with his idiocy". Best Quote in this video; I swear this made me laugh
Giovanni is a tactical genius _of the highest order._
What a perfect showcase of how broken Gen I really was!
Also, an interesting avenue to explore would've been to evaluate the usefulness of Focus Energy in conjunction with Swords Dance (to minimize the chances of those pesky critical hits).
That's genius! Utilizing a the worst bugged move in gen 1, to block gen 1 jank and do crazy damage.
I love gen 1
Who wants to see this revisited and optimized now that he's gotten so much better with gen 1 quirks like retroactive potions and badge boosts?
I don’t know if a lot of people know this, but if you interact with your Pikachu inside Rock Tunnel, he will light the area for a few seconds, making the HM05 Flash useless in Yellow.
JRose: Doesn't like relying on luck in his challenges
Also JRose: Does a run that literally relies on gambling 😉
It's not much of "gambling" if you can take back your bets if they were losses. More like robbery with a delay.
Lol "it's not gambling if you have a system"
It’s true tho. This requires even more luck
He could have tried the safari zone tho... That doesnt count as a battle i guess
u can just make a hack to waste less time if u're 100% certain that it can happen over time lol
Great job, that's really cool!

I love how much of this run is switching into teammates to use them as cannon-fotter. It such a casual strategy we all used at some point.
Damn... Just what I need with the sort of lock down with the Corona Virus in The Netherlands. Thank you Jrose! 😘
Egelmeer did they close your schools? And restaurants?
MazterP28 everything is closed, besides the supermarkets. The district and village Where I live is the hotspot of The Corona Virus in The Netherlands. In the hospitals it’s totall madness...

Egelmeer oof

yasinhenfs bruh
8:25 the only time someone's ever been happy that a enemy pokemon has sand attack
Love this kind of pokemon challenge. With so many more options than the typical one-mon run, you get to actually be creative and think of cool solutions with a team
"You can find Pigeotto in Viridian Forest."
Me, almost 20 years after playing the game, and assuming I knew everything: You can WHAT????
I legit on my first ever playthrough of Pokemon, first pokemon I found in Viridian Forest, was Pidgeotto. Caught it, too. That's going back a very long time, though...
@@Snipergod1024 Same here i did not even knew it was a 1% encounter rate i thought it was something like 4% i runned into 2 of them in viridian forest
1% encounter rate is nothing when your strategy to defeat Brock is to level up Pikachu in viridoan forest to Level 20 so it learns Slam.
"So you do this and that, right? WRONG! You do the opposite!" -Jrose11, every video
You missed a major opportunity to name your rival “Waryo”
WAH!
This makes my quarantine less painful, thank you JRose from Rome, Italy
Never knew my level 9 Pidgeotto in the Yellow version was that rare. 1 percent!
If you grind your Pikachu all the way to Level 20 in Viridian forest so it learns Slam to use against Brock its only a matter of time until you encounter one.
Yeah I don't know why I always chose this method as a kid
"Only in red and blue"
**Plays Yellow**
I love the way you narrate your videos: there's always a clear logic to what you're doing from each step to the next. Keep up the fantastic work. You have a fan in me!
It's five in the morning, Jrose.
Good morning!
Actually, in every place on earth the time is different
If there's one positive side staying in quarantine, it's your viedeos. Keep up with them, you keep us company with these great works!
News 2 months ago: Coronavirus is spreading in China but probably won't hit the U.S.
Jrose: HAHAHA YOU'RE FUNNY
News 2 months in the future: your comment is great but so is mine. (Kinda)
"Psywave inflicts a random amount of damage, varying between 1 damage and 1.5× the user's level.
In a link battle, the damage dealt varies between 1 damage and 1.5× the user's level on the user's side, and between 0 damage and 1.5× the user's level on its opponent's side in a link battle. As a result, if a 0 is generated in a link battle, it causes the games to desynchronize as the target will receive 0 damage on the opponent's game, while the user's side will keep generating pseudorandom numbers until it produces a number between 1 and 1.5× the user's level."
So yeah, the Psywave was always gonna do between 50 and 75 HP in your battle againist Sabrina.
This is why this is my favorite Pokémon channel. The amount of effort shown in these videos is insane and the genuine care you have for the game is evident. I never feel like I’m wasting my time at any point of this video and the more I watch the more I’m learning about the weird intricacies of Gen 1. Keep making banger content, because honestly it’s leagues better then any other channel attempting these kind of runs.
Kind of funny how he used the exact same team Ash did when he fought Brock in the anime, since Pokemon Yellow is based of the Pokémon anime.
Amy Moreau Is it funny?
@@dukes1993724
Yes
Aidan Coleman Ash didn’t use Butterfree in the Brock battle, though, so he used the exact same team to battle Brock, even if his full party wasn’t the same
Amy Moreau
Sorry, it’s been a while since I watched the anime. Forgot Ash uses the same number of Pokémon as the gym leader he’s battling.
Aidan Coleman no problem, the Kanto anime was always a confusing thing anyways lol
26:10 after misty walk south towards the day care house in those grass areas are like a million jigglypuff...
That would be an extra battle. Which defeats the purpose of the whole video.
I've always though that the metapod sprite in pokemon yellow was beautiful, i don't know why it's just nice to the eye
Yellow is what I started with and grew up with. (Again, took a few minutes but when he went to catch pidgeotto I remembered I watched it haha already)
I feel like the Sabrina fight could be improved by setting up 3 Swords Dance on the Abra. Its Flash can't affect your Swift and the only other move it knows is Teleport. With the Badge Boost Glitch, you can boost all your stats by about 48%. (assuming you already beat Blaine and Koga).
Thanks for your super fun videos. I'm always on the edge of my seat which random strategy will come up next or what trolls the AI is going to throw at you. Plus the "Best of Pokemon OST" compilation running in the background. It's a one of a kind entertainment
I think the runs where you have to strategize are far more interesting than the ones where you slam your face against the wall until you get through it, keep up the good work.
Oh yes. Now I can have a quality lockdown.
Pikachu used IMPRISON! It's super effective!
These videos are so good, thank you for providing us with quality content during the pandemic! They're excellent and clever comfort content to watch and chill to. The work put into them is always insane too, you deserve recognition for it.
I love this series just enough to be trying this on Platinum! (even if I'm a coward who used items for a couple battles, and even then I'm stuck on Rival 3...)
Here is a start get a shinx it can eventually get leer and bite
I guess you could kinda consider the full HP potion Happiness increase a glitch. Atleast it would appear logical to do so considering the pokedoll Skip is also a glitch in your book.
Edit : Shouldnt matter in the end, since you can Force yourself through the hiker without bulbasaur, though much more painful i'd assume.
I disagree. The poke doll skip is an unintended method to finishing a battle before you’re supposed to. This is more like the badge boost glitch
@@maxcrss2845 I really don’t get why so many people mention the poke doll glitch. It’s a sequence break that changes how the game is played, as opposed to a small stat boost.
It’s not even comparable tbh
@@bensosnowski1128 yes that’s exactly what I said?
@@bensosnowski1128 the Logic used is that it was patched in Firered and Leafgreen to not work. Why would Gamefreal do that if that was supposed to happen?
Here's a video idea: what's the largest level increase you can gain from a single battle (or fainting a single pokemon) across all games?
Oooh that’s a good one
I remember seeing one person get a trevanant from level 1 to 100 in one battle do to SOS shenanigans.
poni plains: a wild blissey at the highest possible level, with a level 2 affection, traded, erratic exp group, lv. 1 pokémon, holding a lucky egg, and using roto exp boost
probably the closest you're gonna get
Love these types of challenges that you can't grind your way through.
You know coming back and rewatching this i finally realized PEASH is PEACE + ASH.. Jrose you sly punmaster....
Thank you for these videos. They have taken my mind off what has been a bad week for me. I really like your detailed and witty commentary. Keep up the great work.
Never Will I forget this video. Started watching this while playing let’s go Pikachu, and got a full odds random shiny lickitung. From now on, I’ll be watching your videos everytime I play Pokémon to increase my shiny luck. Love your content and looking forward to your next video!
JRose: "Only in Red & Blue critical hits ignore the opponent's decreased stats."
Pokemon Yellow: "Am I a joke to you?"
This is truly an incredible video. I've watched many of your videos as well as many other channels but never have I been so captivated by the quality of the content that I watched today. Fantastic works and I look forward to more videos like this!!
I really have enjoyed your videos and I been watching them for nearly 2 years now. I really enjoy the effort you put into each video and your genuine authenticity
When you're on lockdown because of the Covid19 this is exactly what you need. Thank you Jrose. Another amazing video
“He got unlucky with his idiocy.” Hahahaha good stuff
Me " pokemon is such a one-dimensional game there's no challenge at all."
Me " pokemon is such a multifaceted, complex and challenging masterpiece"
I'm stoked to see you making regular content again. Your red/blue magikarp vid was arguably the biggest contribution to putting these sorts of challenges on the map. I enjoy watching a lot of these videos and without your work they may not have taken off as much as they did. So for that, myself and the community thank you 🙏
I heard comments are good for the TH-cam algorthim
Null I heard mdb is shit
What fossil did he take?
Kirisame Marisa O heard your just as good as MDB
Snowbama for president
I heard that too, but doubt he'll ever blow up like that first viral video haha...That was a gem too.
"And if you want to do this challenge..."
Wtf. You're the crazy man here, not me lol
Your content is incredible! Honestly so nice to sit back and relax watching your videos. I'm always so excited when you upload. Keep up the great work my friend.
Very great video, I love the fact that you tried different routes and reduced so much the luck. Keep up the good work!
Just the distraction I needed for quarantine. Feels weird to see that.
Thought about opening a Discord, Jrose? I was considering how a Crystal fewest battles challenge would look like.
Your runs are so cool and so fun to watch and listen to, thank you so much sir!
Just amazing breakdowns in these videos, such a great creator. Really takes my memories to a whole other level seeing how he strategizes through these battles.
I love your videos man, I appreciate you for working so hard on these
Dude.. i just freakin' love it when you upload :)
Rene Paar you too
Jk not really
I managed to catch a level 5 Mankey in the forest, leveled it to 6 in the mandatory battle and just barely managed to beat the gym by using 12 or 13 potions.
I haven't gotten further than that but I would be curious to know how far you could take it
Well if you used the potions in battle it doesn't work since his challenges are item less in battle
Just with that mankey? Well... probably till the end if items are allowed cuz items in battle trivialize battles.
Oh man!
That feeling when you get something you were eagerly awaiting but had forgotten all about! It's like a surprise Christmas!
I like how hard you attempt to stick with the spirit of the run no matter what. Best vids.
Wow, what crazy interesting run. First I was like "uhhh, is it that different to Red and Blue"? Seems it is. I wanted to watch this in the background while doing chores, but I was glued to my screen.
Plus, as always, great choices of background music. Marnie 2 for the champ, nice!
Thank you, that was very enjoyable to watch.
I love your videos so much, they're full of detail, lots of facts and analyzing, yet still so interesting and entertaining and easy to watch. I also have to say that your voice is nice to listen to for a long time, and that's so important, especially with longer videos like these. Your dedication really shows with all those strategies and experiments you come up with. By far my favourite Pokemon Challenge videos! Looking forward to more.
These minimum battle runs are really entertaining, thanks for taking the time to make them! I hope you'll do more someday, especially for the newer Pokemon games.
"I don't use the pokedoll on marrowak, because that's definitely a glitch!" PKMN R&B
"I just give it potions, which it refuses to increase friendship, which is totally not a glitch." PKMN Yellow
One is increasing friendship, the other is a huge sequence break that changes how the game is played
@@bensosnowski1128 Both are unintended and not meant to be used. Both are literally glitches aka errors in the code.
Pokedoll also skips you a 10 minute run to get the scope...wouldn't call that a huge sequence break what whatever floats your boat.
Just found your videos and I want to say I love them. The effort, explanations, and dedication is what makes it so impressive. Keep it up!
Love watching your videos. The amount of effort you put into each game/strategy/challenge is truly awe-inspiring. Keep up the good work. Look forward to the next video!
always so fun to watch your content. so interesting to see all these numbers explained by you for someone who only casually played pokemon. you are one of 2 channels where i have the notification enabled so its the good stuff. hope you are staying safe in these times and thanks for your content
that scyther sprite looks like the head of a dragon yelling at a green banana
Oh. No. Now I can’t un-see it
Really neat challenge, love that it forces unique weird strategies like bide. Just binged all three videos. Are you going to try Gen 2?
This video was amazing. Didn’t plan on watching the entire thing without skipping any parts. But watched it all. Great job!
That run ,even though the video was an hour long , i just couldn't stop the video,it was sooo interesting ,thrilling and educational cause there were so many things i didn't know about the huge differences of gen1 with the other generations😮😮😮.Awesome work👌👌👌
You think you can do this for gen 2? I really love these types of videos
Inspired by you, I started this challenge on Platinum.
I started with Turtwing, 17 battles so far, counting double battles as 1. I just finished the 2nd gym.
Over a year later and I'm curious if you have an update
Im loving these hour long videos. Just watched your last 2 runs and I'm really enjoying your content. Definitely got a new sub and watcher. Keep up the great work!
Your videos really inspired me to take on this challenge in Emerald. Definitely would love to see you take it on down the line. Keep up the good work!
