HOW EASILY CAN YOU 100% POKEMON BRILLIANT DIAMOND/SHINING PEARL?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ม.ค. 2022
- After completing the Living Dex in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, I took it upon myself to achieve 100% completion. This requires you to get all the "Trainer Stars", which was a feature implemented by the developers to incentivize doing everything in the game. Today we're going to find out how easily you can 100% Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

Hey gamers, I forgot to say thank you for 300,000 subscribers! I have so many big videos planned for this year and I appreciate you all for being so supportive
No problem at all, you deserved it keep making great content. You’re the only creator that makes long content interesting
Please take on the Battle Subway! PLEASE 🙏🏻
Can't wait for the "Catching all forms of Spinda" video xD
I don't get the battle tower stuff like at 21-28 battle won I alredy got a minimize spamming chanchey with sobstitute and softboiled what the heck
It's good to see you are doing well. I might join twitch to see you more oftern
That Battle Tower saga was insane to follow!!! And I love how the 4 star trainer card looks deep fried. Grats on finishing everything off!
Hi Absol!
Seeing absol here feels like the one episode where the different power rangers get together to fight the bad guys.
IT'S HAPPENING!
Yoooo it’s the coolest Pokeman alive absolblogs!!!
@@rickcheesly272 speaking facts
Yoo Absol are you still shiny hunting in bdsp?
The nurses reaction to the card was actually really cool I did not expect that at all
Nurses treating 100% players like legends sounds amazing.
@@envynoson it actually inspired me to give it a shot
In most if not every game the nurse does this
@@Thumbtoe23 only for you 😘
Completing the national dex is by far the biggest pain. Everything else is doable but not that crap
Johnstone: nothing can stop this team
Battle Tower: hey did you know that in terms of
"...that in terms of absolute team swept, Vaporeon is the best candidate?"
Oh boy it's the best Pokemon streamer!
Omg Jrose!!!
And John's here too!
*Pokemon Challenges has entered the chat*
He took your joooob! :D
When’s the catch em all coming back
Seeing the five star trainer card makes me suddenly very motivated to 100% complete the game despite having no interest in it for over a month now
me too i'm at 3/5 stars rn lol
I love how chat completely changes gears as soon as Vaporeon shows up
The fact that he didn't bring up that he got a critical capture on the shiny Togepi is CRAZY
The odds go up the more pokemon you catch so because he had filled his pokedex it was very likely
@@jacobmanning7983 oh, that makes sense. I didn't know that
I feel his pain with the rotom missing the hydro pump. I had an arcanine that missed 4 fire blasts in a row
Thats why i dont like those moves
Yes you deal great damage but what if you didnt?
Talking about bad luck. Playing emerald battle tower yesterday on trainer 164 (I use skarm/bliss/latios stall/setup) Had a quick claw sheer cold Walrein Tbolt my swarm. Sheer cold no miss my blissey, and double quick claw my +5 calm mind latios with ice beam. Going through my substitute with a crit then critting again wiping me. Thing had to have like 3 ice beams left before struggling. So unlucky
Aaron Zheng moment
"Briefcase simulator looking for shinies" Best Description yet
currently at four stars, tempted to go for five. battle facilities aren’t usually my thing, and it would be a real challenge, but that bright and shiny 100% is so close i can almost taste it…
Just wanted to stop and say thank you for describing your final team. I never did any Battle Tower or Competitive Battling, so this trainer star always seemed out of my reach. However, I tried your Cloyster, Latios, Tyranitar built and finally did it. I failed a couple of times, but after learning when to set up and when to switch, I finally made it to 100+ victories. I never would have gotten that star without your video!
I remember trying to finish the sinnoh dex before beating the league, I was underground all the time trying to meet characters for spiritomb and ended up getting the first star off the statues.
Then I beat the pokemon beauty contest with milotic and that was when I realized I needed to beat the league to finish everything else
I tried to complete it before Pokémon home integration comes out and I managed to do it a few days ago
Hey! I would love to see you do a challenge on getting every medal in Pokémon Black2/White2
It's currently impossible because there are some you can't get anymore
@@lukesk11135 I know, but that's only a small amount of the hundreds of them
Hope you enjoy his lates video lmao
@@leonardomasci4283 I did! Haha :D
That Instagram picture at the end *sent* me. Amazing.
It was so much fun being a part of this live and I hope to see more live recordings of main channel videos. It's great being able to look back on the awesome and funny moments that happened.
no one else does these kind of videos for these games like you do. super well made and undeniably entertaining. love your work man keep it up =p
Haven’t been apart of the core of the Johnstone community, but have always enjoyed your videos.
for the battle tower, my team that got to a 100 streak relatively painlessly was specs magnezone, soul dew latios and sash garchomp, I used magnezone as a lead with sturdy + volt switch and it was pretty consistent, although incredibly stressful and the last palmer battle came down to +4 latios vs +4 cresselia after calm mind spam
What we’re your moves for your Pokémon?
Thank god Soul Dew is no longer banned lmao
I laughed so freaking hard at you messing with the contrast and saturation!
Welcome back John!Hope everything is okay!PLA Hype soon!
Very good, hilarious and "educational" video. Also it helped me on BT! Congratz!
That Nurse Joy dialogue change is honestly super cool. Nice video!
Just gotta say thank you John, I actually just completed this myself after being inspired by you and it took me 200 hours but I used your battle tower team and it rocks!
Some tips for competitive Pokémon if you ever need to touch a battle facility again: the ability synchronize has an effect outside of battle. If a synchronize mon is at the head of your party (I believe it can be fainted and still work), wild Pokémon will usually have the same nature as that mon. A natu with timid nature will cause you to encounter more timid Pokémon. If you wanna build a teaM, definitely go check out Pokémon Showdown. I battle there instead of in the games themselves, as I don’t enjoy team building much.
I remember dropping into the final stream you had taking on the Battle Tower, I put “has he STILL not finished this?!” in the chat and got shouted at by everyone 😂
Congrats on 300k mate.
I watched 98.74% of these streams, and man, I'm still amazed that you were able to complete this challenge pretty effortlessly. Claps to u gamer
Your videos are so good and so informative fkng hell. I need this because.i have such little time and you spit the information for everything to know to catch em fkng all
Theoretically, no game post-Gen 2 would ever be 100% complete because on top of the achievements, most Ribbons could be obtained on the majority of Pokémon. Imagine the time it would take to get all ribbons on the 386 Pokémon from Gen 3, plus the 108 of Gen 4, plus the 156 of Gen 5, plus the 72 of Gen 6, plus the 88 of Gen 7, and the 89 of Gen 8. Not to mention all the ribbons added along the way.
That sounds like a challenge.
I don't technically know if that would be possible. The GameCube games give Pokemon transferred from them a special ribbon, however not all Pokemon are available in those games so not all Pokemon could have all ribbons. Plus there's event Pokemon that also have special ribbons, and as far as I know not all 900+ have been given out as an event yet.
@Ethan Swartz there is 2 in Pokémon Colosseum. One for purifying and 1 for 100 trainers in Mt. Battle
Gen 5 doesn’t have Ribbons. At all.
Hot tip for everyone who wants to take on the battle facilities, use hazards like toxic spikes and stealth rocks so that you can break sturdy and get chip damage when they switch in and out. Also double layer toxic spikes gives toxic poison instead of regular so it’s a good asset
Hmm in 3v3 and when the tower trainers hardly switch, I'd imagine taking a turn (or two) to set up hazards is less effective than boosting stats or getting a big hit off with a Latios-type pokemon. Because what if your opponent starts to dragon dance while you set hazards?
@@donlyphans7801 i dont know if any pokemon with hazard moves learn it but use taunt it only allows the opponent to use attacks or use moves like haze or clear smog to remove the opponents stats changes and i know its late
Holy crap, I was literally JUST watching a few of your videos when I saw this in my sub box, what an amazing coincidence XD
A great and fun video as always, I used almost the same team with some small modification, Modest Latios 1HKO a lot of things and very few things outspeeds it and those that do can be taken care of by Tyranitar or Cloyster. Also led with Latios, takes way less time to not setup every battle and as said above instantly kills most things, kept dragon pulse over energy ball since quagsire, gastrodon and whiscash gave me 0 issues, also good incase Tyranitar miss rock slide on Dragonite and dies since sandstorm breaks multiscale and therefore dragon pulse is a kill so the first Palmer fight is ultra safe regardless of rng. Was thinking about shadow ball for a while but had no spare TM for it. Would have given a very decent way of handling Alakazam among others. Also nice to not need to care about intimidate leads. Jolly Tyranitar was also very clutch, outspeeding Palmers Dragonite for example. Cloyster obviously identical.
My only 2 losses happend to a Sceptile on battle 97 because a 100% accurate Ice Shard somehow missed, I guess battle tower Sceptile runs bright powders? And sadly the Blastoise could beat my Tyranitar afterwards. And the second was probably the most infuriating thing I have ever experienced in pokemon, my Latios was paralyzed and got a full para 5 straight turns and lost to a Forretress on battle 32 after my cloyster put it on 1hp with rock blast before getting dying to a gyro ball....
The team felt overall extremly safe but man was it always a semi-nervewreck to deal with some mons that know fighting moves and that are good against Latios, like why do so many psychic and ghost type get focus blast and also always hit them xD
All I need to do now is wait for my last 3 swarm mons and then Shiny hunt Ho-oh and my dex is complete and my first 5-star trainer card ever completed, these videos have always been a great inspiration to one day try and go for it, happy I finally did it, keep up making the great videos!
congrats on 300k! well deserved!
i know it's been a while but i wanted to come by and thank You for the advice on the Battle tower, your team does the trick in dealing with Palmers cresselia, which kept walling me, keep up the good work i'm subscribing and i have You to thank for My 100 win streak
Aye new video :D, also congrats on 300k subs you've earned it with all th hard work you do with these videos
finally… the johntent i’ve been craving…. thank you lord johnstone
Yasss ready for arceus videos coming up next month !!
2 years later and your video still helped me just bought this game last month and got my last star today in the battle tower with your team. Only difference is tyranitar had choice band with stone edge instead of rockslide and fire fang instead of ice and my Latios had shadow ball instead of energy ball and my cloyster had razor shell instead of ice shard
Really enjoyed this video man !
Another awesome video. Congrats on 300k John!
I just finished the game and completed the dex when it came out. But watching Nurse Joy's reaction at the end, I kinda want to get the 5 stars too. that was really cool
The battle tower saga is always an iconic part of post game in pokemon, I love it!
holy shit its spec
Your hard work paid off, great video
I loved the gen 4 contest hall music. Feels so cozy.
Oh my God, that bright powder miss.
Holt moly.
good video been watching you since the black and white challenge here's hoping for a good 2022
awesome video bro, keep it up!
Loved the video John
I was trying to like the video and missed, this is an amazing video
yo damn that's insane, I love it! hell of a flex tbh haha, great work and nice video!
Every time someone brings up being stuck on the briefcase I feel attacked. 5 uncatchable starlys in so far and no penguin 😞
FIVE STARLYS?! thats rooough man. i hope you get the right bird soon! 🐧✨
You still on this?
@@djt08031996 taking a break to work on other projects, but yeah. I got 3 more uncatchables before stopping, but what can you do
@@devankallasmae wouldn't it be easier to breed for a shiny post game?
@@djt08031996 yup. It’s the principle of the matter at this point.
Imagine, you get the "last" star, when suddenly one final, blank star appears. The challenge? Catch every Pokemon from the national dex-but SHINY.
Duck that id rather get MISSINGNO
The free jirachi is lowkey helpful especially the double battle fights
Watching you do the Battle Tower section reminded me why I do not do the Battle Tower
Yep imma copy that battle tower team xD Great vid was great fun to watch
I've been playing this game all day every day for over a week and I still only have 2 badges so far 😅
Granted, I'm the total opposite of a speedrunner, but I'm still amazed at how much stuff there is to do in BDSP. I had almost forgotten what Pokémon games used to be like, so I'm loving these remakes!
The man is back!
How about the Gen 9 games
Congrats on 300k!
I used a Latios like you to do the tower. However I had Ice Beam not Energy Ball, BoltBeam combo is really good.
Energy ball doesn't offer a lot in terms of coverage that you are already getting from Surf and Thunderbolt, Grass-type move just overlaps with what they do.
there are only 3 pokemon Energy ball can be used on which are Lanturn, Swampert and Gastodon, having Ice beam would allow ya to hit Gliscor, Grass and other dragon types.
I used the same team to do my 100 streak! That's crazy!
Hi John, loved the video! I'm assembling your battle tower team but not sure about the EV spread to use on this Tyranitar - what did you use? If anyone else knows I'd love to know :)
I'm so close to 100% my diamond. Just waiting on a few swarm pokemon to show up. I have both games so it's true 100%!
Love the content
Me too bro my last one is Dunsparce
hey do you have a makuhita its the only swarm pokemon i need
Holy wow that looks clean. I have to do this
D-did you just CRIT CATCH a SHINY.
What luck is that
That thumbnail is a work of art. Azelf and Mespirit smiling is something I never knew I needed.
Hey John, I followed in your footsteps and got my own ribbon master Forretress about a year ago. Are the ribbons in BDSP new ribbons or can I skip bringing it back to Sinoh?
Congrats on 300k! Here's to 2022 💞
Since a defeat battle tower at first atempt in brilliant diamond, i never expect to be 2 entire months trying to beat it in Shining Pearl. This system of battles was very good
Congratulations on 300K
I've just known about the stars on the trainer cards and realised back then I have 2 star because before fighting cynthia I intend to end all the contest challenges first 😂😂
got a shiny growlithe on b2 while watching this. johnstone luck
Wait John, I thought you would bring out a BDSP professor oak challenge first.
Also are you planning to update your other channel?
Yes, my child. You have done it. I and my siblings applaud you.
Thanks for the help with the bt team, I’m gonna try that if this current one doesn’t work well
Hey
I just saw you at AWA yesterday!!🤯❤️🔥
Congratulations on 300k!!!
One of my fave vids of yours ✌️
I didnt know how much i missed John throw the runs until this video.
grats on 300k fella x
I wanna watch the full version of this, it would be good to fill in time
I tried this to myself and thought 'oh hey this is easier than other games' then I attempted the battle tower
My favorite pokémon all time, Vaporeon taking you out makes me so happy.
That battle tower sega was rough to get through congrats lol when's your professor oak challenge in BDSP or will you do that after legends arecus comes out?
Wow the patietence you need to the pokemon tower is incredible
I did the Battle Tower challenge to complete my Trainer Card and couldn't beat it until the week before Scarlet and Violet. I also had the same issue with Vaporeon, using Acid Armor and Aqua Ring. It was my 97th battle and took around 4 hours to crush my streak.
6:00 FYI munchlax can be found in the underground
Idk who you are or what I'm doing watching this, but I enjoyed my stay and you've earned a sub(???)
Trying to make my way through the battle tower with the final team he shared in the video, however a big glaring weakness in it comes with scizor. It completely swept my team since I had no good counters so I propose this for the team he laid out:
1. Cut latios's surf for shadow ball, saw a suggestion for that in the comments. It's not really needed when you already have energy ball and what I'm about to suggest in change 3
2. Cut tyranitar
3. Add a choice scarf'd blaziken with close combat, flare blitz, poison jab, and earthquake
Blaziken ends up being much faster and can also cover for steel, fighting, and fairy types while tyranitar couldn't. Losing crunch/ice fang/rock slide doesn't really matter when everyone else can cover the types those moves cover just fine + sandstream won't kill your focus sash cloyster on some occasions
Also just a word of note: don't go for a 100 win streak in doubles. It doesn't get you the trainer card star.
jolly or adamant blaziken?
What are the EV spreads on your battle tower team?
The best battle tower team I ever made was my get 6/7 team. Lead Mega salamance (d-dance, earthquake, return, fire blast), Aegislash (s-dance, king's shield, shadow sneak, iron head w/leftovers), and Chansey (toxic, soft-boiled, aromatherapy, shadow ball w/eviolite). The plan was simple, if they led with a physical attacker, salamance's intimidate and bizarrely high defense stat in mega form meant it was 1 d-dance and an easy sweep. If it was a special attacker, send in Chansey and laugh as they get nothing done, after wards if they switch into a physical attacker switch back to Salamence or Aegislash depending on the match up. Salamence and Aegislash have such incredible synergy, they could take almost any team on their own. The only thing that ever worried me was if they brought a OHKO move, particularly Walrein or Laparas because usually my answer for them was just stall with Chansey.
Are you going to finish the trainer card challenges for BW2-SWSH? Or whatever their respective card equivalent is?
Good vid love ur content
Oh my god! the screaming munchlax at 5:59 I can’t 😂😂😂
Solid video. I’ll sub for that
great vid brah
the way this is edited is hands down the funniest pokemon 100% ive ever seen
Let's goooo he's back again
My first battle with palmer ended with him hitting me with 5 dragon rush. The 2 dragon rushes that didnt kill my gastrodon and machamp flinched me. Dragon rush got 75% hit rate and flinched me 3 times. Got him the second time, but that made my blood boil
Love Nurse Joy's reaction!!
Bro i ran the battle tower so many times with the team you made it with, and let me tell you, there's so many run enders you didn't run into.
-Choice Band Scizor with bullet punch sweeps that team with almost no counterplay (you have a 50/50 chance of it locking itslelf to Quick Attack instead of Bullet Punch if Cloyster is at 1 hp)
-Speed Boost Sharpedo and Speed Boost Yanmega can both royally screw you over since they're both 3rd pokemon of teams that can already stop a Cloyster sweep
-Focus Sash Starmie is a guaranteed run ender. The trainer leads with a Feraligatr that your ruins your Cloyster, so you can't kill it during a Cloyster sweep, and Starmie outspeeds your Latios, lives with Sash and kills it with the second ice beam. Due to the Feraligatr lead, there's actually not a single switch-in play you can make to win this battle.
-Umbreon competely walls and stalls this team unless you get taunt on T-tar
-King's Rock Gallade with tank stats and T-Wave+Confuse Ray has like a 50% chance to end your run completely depending on parafusing and flinch RNG.
-Moody Octillery can again end your run depending on RNG, since it's a lead that can both wall Cloyster and has moves you can't safely switch to Latios or T-tar on.
-Quick Claw Politoed ends your run if it procs quick claw vs Cloyster and atleast once vs Latios
-Infernape is one of a small handful of Pokemon that forces you to use Rock Blast, and ends your run if it misses. 10% chance to end your run basically
-Toxicroak ends your run unless you know a specific strategy. Don't remember which Pokemon, but one of the trainers who use it leads with someone who walls and kills Cloyster and doesn't let you switch safely to T-tar on, but if you switch to Latios, it'll take enough dmg to die to sucker punch from Toxicroak. The specific strat is simply to sacrifice Cloyster to half-health the lead so Latios can clean up without taking damage on a switch in, something you're definitely not doing unless it has ended your run atleast once
Thanks for coming to my TED talk. Fuck the battle tower
