What an eggcellent run and that final fight breakdown was very thorough but quite eggciting. I was wondering where this egg boy would end up in the tier list but when you broke the 100 reset barrier I am actually surprised it didn't end up lower and closer to shuckle (which while I'm sure was painful for you, was probably the funniest one to watch for me).
I feel like the biggest reason that I broke the reset counter was my own stubbornness. That's not to discount the difficulty of this one, but I eggspected so much more from Exeggcutor! Still a super fun run but oh boy did it take a minute to figure out :)
What an eggceptional pick for this channel! Waiting for a T"egg"epi run. Just make sure it doesnt fry or scramble your brain with all the eggcelent sunny side puns youll have there too.
Ahh sweet, sweet Togepi. I wonder if I should hold off on that one until I'm ready to solo run Gen 4? Togetic is pretty underwhelming - Togekiss, though rocks! I'll need a short recharge on the puns :) but only a short one.. the puns keep my eggine running!
@Eggsceptional in my opinion, both. Gotta have some semblance of a challenge, so Togetic challenge while still in Gen 3, then up to Togekiss when you do Gen 4
@@aaronreinsmith6136 I feel Togetic will be a rough one but I may be discounting Serene Grace too much. Perhaps I can find a fun way of making that work :) Togekiss is strong enough that it's run will be pure delight.
While I was never a big fan of Exeggcute/or, I'm surprised it ranked so low. Then again, that's the slow growth rate for ya. Once again, another fantastic video my dude!
The new build looks great! Kudos to you for having the patience to make videos on your old machine. My grandma used to have a computer in the Windows 97 days that would chatter like a squirrel when it was thinking particularly hard lol
You gotta love the little quirks that things develop over time. I wanted to make content! I worked with what I had. Thank you :) building the new machine was the pinnacle of a looong wait.
@Eggsceptional I wouldn't say hoping. But I have a hunch of who it is. I won't say for spoiler purposes. Found your channel through Scott's discord. Love the content dude! Keep it up!
What a surprising run, especially at the first playthrough.Exeggcute line was really good in gen 1 ,and to watch it struggle so bad in gen 3, was really surprising. And like you've mentioned earlier, with Shuckle you don't really expect it to even complete the run,but with Exeggcute it was supposed to be different. I guess that Exeggcute will miss it's gen 1 heydays 😂. Congratulations on getting a new pc , I bet that rendering ir Livestreaming won't be a problem now. I can't wait to see that soul sliver nuzlocke , I hope that could finish it on your first try.😊
I haven't run an Exeggcute(or) in Gen 1 but someone was mentioning how much it suffered from the switch from stat XP to EVs. I really like it with Chlorophyll and single turn Solarbeams though it felt so strong to play. It was just that darn Round 2 league! That Champion team countered Egghead so hard! I'll give it my best shot! It'll be a slow considered approach, in a livestream environment. I'm hoping that everyone watching can make up for my shortcomings :)
@@bateltheassistant I hope your confidence in me is well founded! But I agree! There will be some speedbumps but I'll figure it out :) I'm sure you're familiar with the process of jumping into the unknown!
@@bateltheassistant In that you keep having to restart? I'm so worried about having to do that in my first playthrough. I'm going to be moving so cautiously!
I wasn't too worried about this run until you mentioned which vitamins you were prioritizing and I remembered how hard Exeggcutor took the removal of stat XP.
It was tough figuring out the best distribution of EVs for the second playthrough. I don't know - I'll take Chlorophyll Exeggcutor over stat XP Exeggcutor :)
Im glade you saved so much time even if its not a stellar pokemon Eggseptional Junior isn't a bad pokemon so its surprising how tough the league r2 and other challenges are. looking at these results youre in for a world of pain if younever do 2st stage no evos or trely weak pokemon lol.
I was originally going to attempt to run the game as I am, into the Round 2 league, but using only 1st stage Pokémon. These days I look back on that young, naive Egg and chuckle to myself. I much prefer the format of evolving anyway. I feel it's how I would have played them as a kid. Watching evolutions was peak Pokémon in my youth :) Thanks!
@@Eggsceptional Still after watching how much trouble Magneton and Eggsecutor gave you I'm a little worried when you get to the the dunsparces, and lumineons and other pokemon that seem to exist to fill out the pokedex, considering how much trouble you run into with 'decent' pokemon. (Hopefully that makes sense it's 1:30 here lol)
@@Silvitewolf It makes total sense! I did suffer through Shuckle after all. I feel like Dunsparce might surprise us with Serene Grace :) I try to choose my runs somewhat intelligently, moving between hard runs that take longer and easier ones that are much faster. The last few weeks that has not been the case though I've had a lot of Pokémon that took a lot more time than I'd given them credit for.
Eggcellent sir, as always Eggcellent, but seriously egg man that 1st run, oh my shit that was rough, that was Wailord and a skitty rough, again with that level of rough, you do love to torture yourself. given that it was the 1st run and you made the boo boo with evolving too soon, it could of been worse. I think with some moveset changes it might of been smoother, but you covered that nicely in the 2nd run at least. I'm surprised giga drain didn't get in there are one point, have it with bullet seed so the PP isn't tiny (shout out to Scott and his PP management). the HP fire was a good call, it just works with grass types that have chlorophyll as there is almost always sunny day and solarbeam with it. I gotta ask, did you borrow that set from our Butterfree chats? I don't blame you if you did, it worked (in the end). I think it was the best set you could ask for with this run, the limited options really made it necessary with or without HP. I am curious of something else, whilst you had thief, did you consider hunting for Abra to try and steal a twisted spoon off of one for the psychic boost, might of been handy for the R2 league. I have one more thought for your runs with limited move options, as well as the creative HP, have you tried mimic? its not as good as it was in Gen 1 but it could still come in handy, the mixed movesets of the R2 lance and champion could be eggploited. by the way, loving the puns and singing as always. surprised there wasn't more about getting hard boiled or fried by Charizard lol. I am glad you got your new computer up and running and you making your long awaited start on the Gen 4 runs, its going to be good I just know it, you have been so eggcited for it for so long, I hope the wait will be worth it. I know we're all gonna have a great time finding out and seeing you learn along the way. the snake runs you got coming for next week will be very interesting to see, I still maintain it should be 3 way, Arbok vs Physical Serviper vs special Serviper, but you know me, I love see the that kind of VS.
Let's not discuss the decisions made in the first playthrough. Ah yes, the eternal struggle of having tiny PP. That killed me in Scott's videos. I was thinking of how to make Giga Drain viable but having double the power with Solarbeam did so much better I feel. That recovery sure would have been nice. Hmm I had not considered Thief-ing an Abra for the Twisted Spoon. It feels so RNG dependent though I'm always scared to go Thieving and lose a ton of time. Definitely something I'll have to bear in mind more for team challenges. As far as the move-set, I thought of it while trying to salvage the run, and immediately thought "JP will approve". I wish that I could make HP Fire work best with a Chlorophyll Pokémon. I'll find one... That's true I missed some opportunities about cooking eggs against those Fire types. He burned my coconuts! I've thought about Mimic a few times but I haven't really put any deep thought into it. You're actually correct that there are a lot of moves I could plunder from the R2 teams especially... Our chats continue to inspire new thought processes. Thank you again I need to ponder Mimic more deeply. You do love your physical/special matchups it's true. Seviper has been a tricky one to sort out the best path. Especially running as a mixed attacker there are so many options but it's hard to pick which is best. I'm just happy that in this video I finally get to make use of Sludge Bomb. What a cool move - despite how lacking it can feel in the R2 league.
@@Eggsceptional the PP jokes are always fun, I think its the deadpan delivery of it, but seriously PP is always an issue especially with the late game and league. Giga Drain would of been good, a couple PPUP's, maybe keep bullet seed a little longer, might of worked and you are right the recovery would of been good, you needed it I know that, the eggs are good, but they are in a rare group of Gen 1 Pokemon that are weak to poison due to not being poison and in any Gen 1 game remake or otherwise, that is a dangerous thing, Parasect will be the same I am afraid to say. the thief strat can be very helpful at times, there a lot of held items like twisted spoons that can be acquired like that, except the silver dust from Venomoth, thats safari zone only. its worth considering for some of the runs, but you may be right about saving them for the team runs, it can take a while to get the items, depending on what you are looking for of course. I assure you I approve of HP fire, works well if sunny day of course and covers some problems, sadly none of the ones you had in this run. if I may suggest, Victreebel will be your best user of that combo, mostly because gets the speed boost from the sun, a special boost from growth if you wish it, you can have sleep powder of course and razor leaf is a decent alternative to Giga drain, massive PP on that one. you'll love Victreebel, there is a good reason it is the top of Scotts Yellow leader board. I admit I have never used Mimic outside of Yellow for my Butterfree run, had to try it. this is controversial, but I maintain I found a way to do Yellow with Butterfree better than Scott and it was with your rules, start with Caterpie, because in Yellow when it evolved it got Harden, which is badge boosting move in yellow, so Butterfree got extra boosts through the run, but I digress. you are most welcome, I look forward to see what you have in mind for mimic, I think you"ll come up with some interesting results. I love my physical special VS like you love boosting moves and substitute. I am a Gen 4 player more than Gen 3 despite Fire Red being my home game. in Gen 4, physical VS special means something very different than it does in Gen 3, but the results in Gen 3 are so much more interesting. look at Nidoking for example, in Gen 4, the move pool is diverse enough that I can do full physical VS special runs if the exact same coverage for most of the run, for each of its physical move, there is special of the same type to use. in Gen 3 its entirely down to type and that makes the difference, but again, as long as the move pool is diverse enough, it is possible and gives such interesting results. you will see this more and more with time. your Seviper run sounds like it is going to be interesting, its not rhe most obvious mixed attacker and doesn't get much in terms of special in the early game except bite, which I assume is a blessing for Brock and Misty. crunch will serve you well and so will flamethrower and giga drain if you choose to use them, I assume body slam will be kept for a long time in the run (looked at the egg moves, shocking selection for both). sludge bomb is awesome, bu you are right, it comes so late in the game, I think its only Muk that gets it by level up and can be used earlier. have you considered HP poison as a stand in, neither snakes early need HP so a decent HP for STAB might be best if at all needed. good news from the fighting run, I got through cycle road and Koga without too many problems, Koga caused a pair of resets, but that was me forgetting about the pecha berry for poison. Primeape handled the gym except for weezing, Poliwrath took care of it with psychic. the run is good good, I'll be using thief to hunt for a magnet from Magnaton for Hitmonchan next. I think after Silph and Sabrina, I might add Hitmonlee to the team, I should have badges enough for it to obey all the time by then.
@@jptheflipper3825 Totally the deadpan delivery. It's true. That Grass/Psychic was an interesting typing for most of the game and absolutely brutal in that R2 league. Hey, every reset is a lesson learned right? Who knows maybe I'll be good at this game eventually! I guess it just becomes a matter of the investment of time into getting either the held item or grinding a little extra. I can see if being more beneficial for sure in the team setting - particularly if I'm level capping myself. Victreebel sounds like a blast to play. Even without the guaranteed Razor Leaf crits in Gen 3 I'm still going to be rocking that move for probably as long as I can. It was one of my favourites as a kid. I don't have anything in mind at the moment but I'm thinking of niche cases like Persian getting HP Fighting for T-tar - what if grabbing Megahorn from Heracross was an option instead? Weird things like that I'll have to keep them in the forefront of my thoughts. I felt like Return was a better option over HP Poison. Higher PP and if I'm grabbing HP I'd rather have it solving big problems instead of adding some STAB mid game. The mid games were amazing. So fun to route. I love me some Crunch - and oh the colours on my Seviper overlay. I'm proud of me. Oh yeah that's awesome. So you're coming up to Blaine and all his Intimidates. At least you can switch out. And with all the Rock moves that Fighting Pokémon learn hopefully he doesn't stall you for too long. And that Poliwrath. Are you planning on going R2?
@@Eggsceptional I think if the moveset wasn't so constrained it might of had an easier time of it in R2 or at least a less brutal time of it. I'd say you are doing good so far, but I think there are times when stopping to think for a while when you stuck is needed, how often do you stop mid game, walk away for a bit to think? trust me it helps when you are stuck, I did it a few time with Parasect believe me. you can do both to an extent, I hunted down a twisted spoon for my Poliwrath and a magnet for my Hitmonchan. you get them from Abra and Magnaton and both give speciall attack EV's which my Hitmonchan needs so. I find level capping for team runs to be fair, throughout the run, it will depend on what I am running, but I always face the league with my team at 60 and my lead at 65, but R2 is only 65-70 for the team, an overleveled team is too easy sometimes, again depends on the time. you'll love Victreebel and Rzor leaf was and still is a favorite of mine, I loved it on Venasaur and still do, although the accuracy has let me down in the past. in Gen 3 it is still the best grass move aside from Leaf Blade but only the Treecko line got that in Gen 3. you'll be glad to know Victreebel and Leafeon got it for Gen 4 where it is physical move and pairs nice with swords dance. thats an interesting strat but it might taking a hit from that megahorn in order to make use of it. it could miss I guess making mimic saver, but then you have the same chance to miss yourself after that. thats the magic of HP, you can have options like that to deal with problems, yours was novel though,on normal types in Gen 3, I often see HP ghost for Agatha, we might be saying the same for HP water on butterfree soon as well. fair point with the HP poison on the snakes, return is good, especially in the late game when the friendship is high, raises the question what HP (if any) would be best, for Seviper especially as it could have any type thanks to its stats, fighting for Arbok maybe.crunh is awesome, so few got to use it though and I think only Houndoom got to use it with STAB and a decent special. I look forward to seeing what you've done with the ovelay, its gonna be good. good news, Silph went well, Primeape cleaved through it and Hitmonchan had its moments too, Sabrinas gym us going about the same, Sabrina should be ok as long as Alakazam isn't too harsh on me. blaine can be handled by Poliwrath without any problems, but I'll be using Machamp and maybe Hitmonlee so I can get the EV's, with the except on Primeape, I am a complete purest with EV training the team. R2 will be about the same as R1 for me as my team will be diverse enough in terms of movesets to handle it, although Alakazam and the ghosts might be an issue for both R1 and R2, but I will at least have added Heracross by then to aid the team along
@@jptheflipper3825 Combining! Apologies for the long delay - the snakes video nearly did me in and my brain is still currently sagging out of my ear slightly. I'm looking forward to the TM diversity because it should be stated that I go with Rock Slide so much for lack of better options :) Speaking of the snakes since it goes live tomorrow.. They seriously just about didn't get released this week. I bit off a bit more than I could chew in my mad dash to start playing Gen 4. We're good! But ugh. You're correct with Seviper but oh.. that Round 2 league and Fluctuating growth rate... 1.64 million xp to 100. Yup. Did that. I try to capture the runs in a single take without pausing the timer or taking breaks. I really should learn to take a step back a bit more often. You know, instead of smashing my face against a problem for hours of wasted effort. You raise a good point - particularly with Paras(ect) looming. Gen 4 is going to be so great. Find me a move that doesn't pair well with Swords Dance! Well.. you know that's physical. Yes! Keep me posted on Butterfree I'll be interested to know if your results align with mine. Once I can process thoughts again :P Is Heracross catchable in FR/LG? I've never gone out to find one and that would be a cool thing. Is it another Headbutt encounter or is that just a Johto thing? Anyway, the run sounds like it's going along really well. You'll be at Giovanni soon enough though you can grab that Macho Brace for the rest of your EV training.
I have a problem with Giga Drain. I absolutely love the move, and almost always teach it immediately. Lately, I've had a couple of runs where only having that 5 PP hurts so much that I'm almost timid of Giga Drain now. It'll make an appearance in the upcoming snakes video though :)
We expect egg puns from an Eggceptional vid. We expect egg puns from an Exeggcute vid. Well I thought we were gonna get Egg puns + Egg puns. We instead got Egg puns MULTIPLIED by Egg puns. Conclusion: eggs are still round but in this video, the egg puns were squared. Doing these calcs scrambled my brain and now it's feeling fried.
I couldn't even with this one. It really cracked me up I love the puns!!! This video took a minute for me to hatch a plan for. But I had to stay with my sunny side up. Positive, and ready to come out of my shell. What a fun run to eggsplore.
I'm very surprised this wasn't a faster run, exeggcutor has nice stats and a decent move pool. I know slow growth rate can hold pokemon back, but wow. Maybe it's more my expectations from gen 1&2 though (I have almost no experience with gens 3+)?
That's fair! I eggspected a lot more from Exeggcutor as well. I was so shocked when I spent that long stuck in the R2 league. Perhaps when I run it again in Gen 4 with some new features and move diversity it will perform better :)
For hidden power being so RNG dependent. I think adding one TM to the PC and only being able to grab it after catching a Meowth. Or change the pickup rate to a higher percentage or changing the pickup rate of it to a higher amount (I don't know how difficult this would be) but I think it would help with some consistency
I was considering doing something like this. My only issue with it is that not ever Pokémon needs HP, so I feel like the time investment of collecting it is the trade-off for having literally any coverage move that I want. I've only been caught with my pants down in one run - the Magnemite line. It's a tough balance to strike! Thanks for the suggestion :) I'll continue pondering it
I JUST missed this premiere! Oh well, I'll watch it anyways! These videos are eggceptional, and always have me scrambling to hit that watch button! Those puns may be softboiled, but im sure they're delicious! What, they're seeds? Uh, no. Game Freak has wobbled on this and deviled then up to eggs from time to time as well. So when they Crack the case on what they are, I'll whip up more puns. ... ... Egg.
Hey there's always next time! Thank you I'm glad you enjoy them so much. I can't get enough of the puns. That Round 2 champ sure had me scrambled. At least having a plan didn't make it over-easy.
I'm a little timid of doing my first video in SoulSilver as a VS run. Quite actually. I'm very much a "dip your toes in the water" type of guy :) Mewtwo has been reserved for Rayquaza, but I can also make a note to throw a comparison to a Mew run in the video. How much better, if at all, is version two really?
MewTwo is an OG pokemon, Mew was a legend under a truck lol.... But MT an Ray doesn't sound bad either. Johto is my all time favorite region and its longer so whatever you do I'm good.@@Eggsceptional
@@onyxbinns8584 That Mew under the truck... I can't say how many hours I spent in that area trying to get something to work. Eventually I plan to run 'em all!
I had considered it quite heavily. It may likely have been more consistent, considering the resets against Misty and the close call at Surge, but I wanted the damage output so badly to keep moving quickly. This one was a tough egg to crack :)
I feel like this comment is way late, but the reason the enemy kept waking up so quickly in the early game is because Uproar causes sleeping Pokémon to wake up immediately.
If only you could have commented this BEFORE the video released 😅 it was a lesson hard learned, but I did realize it by the second playthrough. Thanks for the tip :)
@@Eggsceptional I'm happy to help. Uproar's secondary effect is so niche; only a couple of attacking moves remove a status condition. Wake-Up Slap also removes Sleep, but was removed in Gen 8. Smelling Salts removes Paralysis and was also removed in Gen 8. Sparkling Aria heals Burn and is not yet in Gen 9, but will likely return when part 2 of the DLC releases.
@@TrayolLyrics I was so confused in the first playthrough when everything kept waking up. There's so many moves like that that I need to tune up my knowledge on. There's so much depth to these kids games!
I'm not sure how many of them were eggsciting. It's true that some had me eggspressing different feelings. Sometimes eggscitement. Sometimes feelings that were a bit more eggregious. Either way, I hope it was eggsceptable in the end :)
Funnily enough i upgraded my pc this year too, I had a 4770k water cooled, a gtx 970 and 120gb boot ssd, and i then grabbed 4 250gb ssds (stupid in hindsight) and 2 3tb hdd. I then upgraded to a 7600x air cooled, with a 6700xt, and 2 2tb ssds also can't stand the unicorn vomit
That's awesome! I hope you've been enjoying your new build as much as I've been enjoying mine. What a difference it makes. I like the rainbows don't get me wrong! But it becomes too much very quickly.
That's kind of a weird thing to ponder. I'd say nah? Oh yeah! Togepi. The egg we all remember from the anime and were disappointed by when it first hatched in Gold/Silver. Speaking for myself of course :)
Nidoking and Queen are two that I'm looking forward to running. They have so many move-set options it's wild! But I can see how that Blastoise would hurt quite a bit :)
I had thought about doing it as a shiny run but I didn't want the time loss from the animation. In the first run though... that was a missed opportunity. Thanks :)
I do think maybe these challenges should have some sort of sleep rule or a penalty for a Using sleep Spam, I know the moves can miss. But it really does just allow a pokemon to win Battles They shouldn't with very minimum strategy. I guess in solo challenges. It's fine but I could see that being a bit unfair for versus battles(same with sword dance and substitute) lol
I've been getting a lot of comments about creating more challenge in my runs. It's never been the way that I enjoy playing, but I'm willing to explore having a more challenging first run. Sleep is one of those moves that very much feels like it's within the "flavour" of a Pokémon. Paras(ect) for instance. It's signature move is Spore so it would feel odd to run it without using Spore. I do appreciate the input :) I've been giving it a lot of thought lately. Thanks!
That's a really hard question to answer. The eggs I eat most of are over easy, but there's nothing like a softboiled egg. I love them on rice bowls, soups, like everything. I love all kind of egg preparations - especially when you mix them with butter and sugar to make cookies... mmm cookies.
If I could comment on your graphing for the time comparisons I’d like to say it seems a little jumbled. I’ve found it a little difficult to glean information from it even after having seen it a few times.
That darn time graph has been through 3 iterations trying to make it better. It's starting to feel like a project that should just be axed, and reverted back to the old way of doing things. But I like colour!! I'll keep mulling it over. Thanks for the input :)
@@Eggsceptional maybe instead of lines from the left why not try putting the major splits in vertical text boxes. As long as they’re short it shouldn’t be difficult to see. Either that or switch to a vertical graph with horizontal text boxes. There’s just less space to work with doing that.
@@Dark-Aclyss Hmmm. I had another suggestion to make it an xy type graph with x being time, y being the splits. I feel like that format may be the one to pursue - but I make the graphs manually. Straight lines made editing it way faster. I feel like I might just keep it as is, or revert to the old "slap data on the screen" method until 2024 when I have the time to completely rework it. Maybe even automate its creation in some way! I appreciate the input :)
That depends on what I'm having! At a "breakfast out" I'll have them over easy. Most mornings though I start my day with a vege/sausage/scramble. With my rice bowls/ramen it's always soft boiled. I eat a lot of eggs 🤤
HP Rock was my main contender going in, but try as I might nothing worked. HP Nothing or HP Dark since I went for max IVs ended up being the correct answers
A few videos back I did a Meowth/Persian, and I think only 2 videos ago I did Abra/Kadabra/Alakazam! I have plans for all the cats :) My lap cat Franky demands it!
So did I! That Round 2 league, particularly that Champion fight hard countered Exeggcutor pretty hard. It was a tough run to crack. I hope I did it justice!

What a surprising run, especially at the first playthrough.Exeggcute line was really good in gen 1 ,and to watch it struggle so bad in gen 3, was really surprising. And like you've mentioned earlier, with Shuckle you don't really expect it to even complete the run,but with Exeggcute it was supposed to be different. I guess that Exeggcute will miss it's gen 1 heydays 😂.
Congratulations on getting a new pc , I bet that rendering ir Livestreaming won't be a problem now. I can't wait to see that soul sliver nuzlocke , I hope that could finish it on your first try.😊
I haven't run an Exeggcute(or) in Gen 1 but someone was mentioning how much it suffered from the switch from stat XP to EVs. I really like it with Chlorophyll and single turn Solarbeams though it felt so strong to play. It was just that darn Round 2 league! That Champion team countered Egghead so hard!
I'll give it my best shot! It'll be a slow considered approach, in a livestream environment. I'm hoping that everyone watching can make up for my shortcomings :)
@@Eggsceptional Of course, that's part of gaining experience in the first place.😁 I know that you'll do well.
@@bateltheassistant I hope your confidence in me is well founded! But I agree! There will be some speedbumps but I'll figure it out :) I'm sure you're familiar with the process of jumping into the unknown!
@@Eggsceptional Yeah, I'm currently trying to do a nuzlocke in a new gen 2 based rom hack, and it's basically a matter of trial and error 😁.
@@bateltheassistant In that you keep having to restart? I'm so worried about having to do that in my first playthrough. I'm going to be moving so cautiously!
I wasn't too worried about this run until you mentioned which vitamins you were prioritizing and I remembered how hard Exeggcutor took the removal of stat XP.
It was tough figuring out the best distribution of EVs for the second playthrough. I don't know - I'll take Chlorophyll Exeggcutor over stat XP Exeggcutor :)
Im glade you saved so much time even if its not a stellar pokemon Eggseptional Junior isn't a bad pokemon so its surprising how tough the league r2 and other challenges are. looking at these results youre in for a world of pain if younever do 2st stage no evos or trely weak pokemon lol.
I was originally going to attempt to run the game as I am, into the Round 2 league, but using only 1st stage Pokémon. These days I look back on that young, naive Egg and chuckle to myself. I much prefer the format of evolving anyway. I feel it's how I would have played them as a kid. Watching evolutions was peak Pokémon in my youth :) Thanks!
@@Eggsceptional Still after watching how much trouble Magneton and Eggsecutor gave you I'm a little worried when you get to the the dunsparces, and lumineons and other pokemon that seem to exist to fill out the pokedex, considering how much trouble you run into with 'decent' pokemon. (Hopefully that makes sense it's 1:30 here lol)
@@Silvitewolf It makes total sense! I did suffer through Shuckle after all. I feel like Dunsparce might surprise us with Serene Grace :) I try to choose my runs somewhat intelligently, moving between hard runs that take longer and easier ones that are much faster. The last few weeks that has not been the case though I've had a lot of Pokémon that took a lot more time than I'd given them credit for.
Eggcellent sir, as always Eggcellent, but seriously egg man that 1st run, oh my shit that was rough, that was Wailord and a skitty rough, again with that level of rough, you do love to torture yourself. given that it was the 1st run and you made the boo boo with evolving too soon, it could of been worse. I think with some moveset changes it might of been smoother, but you covered that nicely in the 2nd run at least. I'm surprised giga drain didn't get in there are one point, have it with bullet seed so the PP isn't tiny (shout out to Scott and his PP management).
the HP fire was a good call, it just works with grass types that have chlorophyll as there is almost always sunny day and solarbeam with it. I gotta ask, did you borrow that set from our Butterfree chats? I don't blame you if you did, it worked (in the end). I think it was the best set you could ask for with this run, the limited options really made it necessary with or without HP. I am curious of something else, whilst you had thief, did you consider hunting for Abra to try and steal a twisted spoon off of one for the psychic boost, might of been handy for the R2 league.
I have one more thought for your runs with limited move options, as well as the creative HP, have you tried mimic? its not as good as it was in Gen 1 but it could still come in handy, the mixed movesets of the R2 lance and champion could be eggploited. by the way, loving the puns and singing as always. surprised there wasn't more about getting hard boiled or fried by Charizard lol.
I am glad you got your new computer up and running and you making your long awaited start on the Gen 4 runs, its going to be good I just know it, you have been so eggcited for it for so long, I hope the wait will be worth it. I know we're all gonna have a great time finding out and seeing you learn along the way. the snake runs you got coming for next week will be very interesting to see, I still maintain it should be 3 way, Arbok vs Physical Serviper vs special Serviper, but you know me, I love see the that kind of VS.
Let's not discuss the decisions made in the first playthrough. Ah yes, the eternal struggle of having tiny PP. That killed me in Scott's videos. I was thinking of how to make Giga Drain viable but having double the power with Solarbeam did so much better I feel. That recovery sure would have been nice.
Hmm I had not considered Thief-ing an Abra for the Twisted Spoon. It feels so RNG dependent though I'm always scared to go Thieving and lose a ton of time. Definitely something I'll have to bear in mind more for team challenges. As far as the move-set, I thought of it while trying to salvage the run, and immediately thought "JP will approve". I wish that I could make HP Fire work best with a Chlorophyll Pokémon. I'll find one...
That's true I missed some opportunities about cooking eggs against those Fire types. He burned my coconuts! I've thought about Mimic a few times but I haven't really put any deep thought into it. You're actually correct that there are a lot of moves I could plunder from the R2 teams especially... Our chats continue to inspire new thought processes. Thank you again I need to ponder Mimic more deeply.
You do love your physical/special matchups it's true. Seviper has been a tricky one to sort out the best path. Especially running as a mixed attacker there are so many options but it's hard to pick which is best. I'm just happy that in this video I finally get to make use of Sludge Bomb. What a cool move - despite how lacking it can feel in the R2 league.
@@Eggsceptional the PP jokes are always fun, I think its the deadpan delivery of it, but seriously PP is always an issue especially with the late game and league. Giga Drain would of been good, a couple PPUP's, maybe keep bullet seed a little longer, might of worked and you are right the recovery would of been good, you needed it I know that, the eggs are good, but they are in a rare group of Gen 1 Pokemon that are weak to poison due to not being poison and in any Gen 1 game remake or otherwise, that is a dangerous thing, Parasect will be the same I am afraid to say.
the thief strat can be very helpful at times, there a lot of held items like twisted spoons that can be acquired like that, except the silver dust from Venomoth, thats safari zone only. its worth considering for some of the runs, but you may be right about saving them for the team runs, it can take a while to get the items, depending on what you are looking for of course.
I assure you I approve of HP fire, works well if sunny day of course and covers some problems, sadly none of the ones you had in this run. if I may suggest, Victreebel will be your best user of that combo, mostly because gets the speed boost from the sun, a special boost from growth if you wish it, you can have sleep powder of course and razor leaf is a decent alternative to Giga drain, massive PP on that one. you'll love Victreebel, there is a good reason it is the top of Scotts Yellow leader board.
I admit I have never used Mimic outside of Yellow for my Butterfree run, had to try it. this is controversial, but I maintain I found a way to do Yellow with Butterfree better than Scott and it was with your rules, start with Caterpie, because in Yellow when it evolved it got Harden, which is badge boosting move in yellow, so Butterfree got extra boosts through the run, but I digress. you are most welcome, I look forward to see what you have in mind for mimic, I think you"ll come up with some interesting results.
I love my physical special VS like you love boosting moves and substitute. I am a Gen 4 player more than Gen 3 despite Fire Red being my home game. in Gen 4, physical VS special means something very different than it does in Gen 3, but the results in Gen 3 are so much more interesting. look at Nidoking for example, in Gen 4, the move pool is diverse enough that I can do full physical VS special runs if the exact same coverage for most of the run, for each of its physical move, there is special of the same type to use. in Gen 3 its entirely down to type and that makes the difference, but again, as long as the move pool is diverse enough, it is possible and gives such interesting results. you will see this more and more with time.
your Seviper run sounds like it is going to be interesting, its not rhe most obvious mixed attacker and doesn't get much in terms of special in the early game except bite, which I assume is a blessing for Brock and Misty. crunch will serve you well and so will flamethrower and giga drain if you choose to use them, I assume body slam will be kept for a long time in the run (looked at the egg moves, shocking selection for both). sludge bomb is awesome, bu you are right, it comes so late in the game, I think its only Muk that gets it by level up and can be used earlier. have you considered HP poison as a stand in, neither snakes early need HP so a decent HP for STAB might be best if at all needed.
good news from the fighting run, I got through cycle road and Koga without too many problems, Koga caused a pair of resets, but that was me forgetting about the pecha berry for poison. Primeape handled the gym except for weezing, Poliwrath took care of it with psychic. the run is good good, I'll be using thief to hunt for a magnet from Magnaton for Hitmonchan next. I think after Silph and Sabrina, I might add Hitmonlee to the team, I should have badges enough for it to obey all the time by then.
@@jptheflipper3825 Totally the deadpan delivery. It's true. That Grass/Psychic was an interesting typing for most of the game and absolutely brutal in that R2 league. Hey, every reset is a lesson learned right? Who knows maybe I'll be good at this game eventually!
I guess it just becomes a matter of the investment of time into getting either the held item or grinding a little extra. I can see if being more beneficial for sure in the team setting - particularly if I'm level capping myself.
Victreebel sounds like a blast to play. Even without the guaranteed Razor Leaf crits in Gen 3 I'm still going to be rocking that move for probably as long as I can. It was one of my favourites as a kid.
I don't have anything in mind at the moment but I'm thinking of niche cases like Persian getting HP Fighting for T-tar - what if grabbing Megahorn from Heracross was an option instead? Weird things like that I'll have to keep them in the forefront of my thoughts.
I felt like Return was a better option over HP Poison. Higher PP and if I'm grabbing HP I'd rather have it solving big problems instead of adding some STAB mid game. The mid games were amazing. So fun to route. I love me some Crunch - and oh the colours on my Seviper overlay. I'm proud of me.
Oh yeah that's awesome. So you're coming up to Blaine and all his Intimidates. At least you can switch out. And with all the Rock moves that Fighting Pokémon learn hopefully he doesn't stall you for too long. And that Poliwrath. Are you planning on going R2?
@@Eggsceptional I think if the moveset wasn't so constrained it might of had an easier time of it in R2 or at least a less brutal time of it. I'd say you are doing good so far, but I think there are times when stopping to think for a while when you stuck is needed, how often do you stop mid game, walk away for a bit to think? trust me it helps when you are stuck, I did it a few time with Parasect believe me.
you can do both to an extent, I hunted down a twisted spoon for my Poliwrath and a magnet for my Hitmonchan. you get them from Abra and Magnaton and both give speciall attack EV's which my Hitmonchan needs so. I find level capping for team runs to be fair, throughout the run, it will depend on what I am running, but I always face the league with my team at 60 and my lead at 65, but R2 is only 65-70 for the team, an overleveled team is too easy sometimes, again depends on the time.
you'll love Victreebel and Rzor leaf was and still is a favorite of mine, I loved it on Venasaur and still do, although the accuracy has let me down in the past. in Gen 3 it is still the best grass move aside from Leaf Blade but only the Treecko line got that in Gen 3. you'll be glad to know Victreebel and Leafeon got it for Gen 4 where it is physical move and pairs nice with swords dance.
thats an interesting strat but it might taking a hit from that megahorn in order to make use of it. it could miss I guess making mimic saver, but then you have the same chance to miss yourself after that. thats the magic of HP, you can have options like that to deal with problems, yours was novel though,on normal types in Gen 3, I often see HP ghost for Agatha, we might be saying the same for HP water on butterfree soon as well.
fair point with the HP poison on the snakes, return is good, especially in the late game when the friendship is high, raises the question what HP (if any) would be best, for Seviper especially as it could have any type thanks to its stats, fighting for Arbok maybe.crunh is awesome, so few got to use it though and I think only Houndoom got to use it with STAB and a decent special. I look forward to seeing what you've done with the ovelay, its gonna be good.
good news, Silph went well, Primeape cleaved through it and Hitmonchan had its moments too, Sabrinas gym us going about the same, Sabrina should be ok as long as Alakazam isn't too harsh on me. blaine can be handled by Poliwrath without any problems, but I'll be using Machamp and maybe Hitmonlee so I can get the EV's, with the except on Primeape, I am a complete purest with EV training the team. R2 will be about the same as R1 for me as my team will be diverse enough in terms of movesets to handle it, although Alakazam and the ghosts might be an issue for both R1 and R2, but I will at least have added Heracross by then to aid the team along
@@jptheflipper3825 Combining! Apologies for the long delay - the snakes video nearly did me in and my brain is still currently sagging out of my ear slightly. I'm looking forward to the TM diversity because it should be stated that I go with Rock Slide so much for lack of better options :)
Speaking of the snakes since it goes live tomorrow.. They seriously just about didn't get released this week. I bit off a bit more than I could chew in my mad dash to start playing Gen 4. We're good! But ugh. You're correct with Seviper but oh.. that Round 2 league and Fluctuating growth rate... 1.64 million xp to 100. Yup. Did that.
I try to capture the runs in a single take without pausing the timer or taking breaks. I really should learn to take a step back a bit more often. You know, instead of smashing my face against a problem for hours of wasted effort. You raise a good point - particularly with Paras(ect) looming.
Gen 4 is going to be so great. Find me a move that doesn't pair well with Swords Dance! Well.. you know that's physical.
Yes! Keep me posted on Butterfree I'll be interested to know if your results align with mine. Once I can process thoughts again :P
Is Heracross catchable in FR/LG? I've never gone out to find one and that would be a cool thing. Is it another Headbutt encounter or is that just a Johto thing? Anyway, the run sounds like it's going along really well. You'll be at Giovanni soon enough though you can grab that Macho Brace for the rest of your EV training.
---> is waiting for megahorn from heracross.
Also I would personally have made use of giga drain up til solar beam at the very least
I have a problem with Giga Drain. I absolutely love the move, and almost always teach it immediately. Lately, I've had a couple of runs where only having that 5 PP hurts so much that I'm almost timid of Giga Drain now. It'll make an appearance in the upcoming snakes video though :)
@@Eggsceptional oh yeah, I forgot in older gens it's pp was only 5. Used to it being 10
@@Ubernewb111 It hurts so much!! I'm looking forward to getting into Gen 4. Soon :)
@@Eggsceptional that would be cool. I'd like to see a weavile run
@@Ubernewb111 I'll add it to the list!
We expect egg puns from an Eggceptional vid. We expect egg puns from an Exeggcute vid.
Well I thought we were gonna get Egg puns + Egg puns. We instead got Egg puns MULTIPLIED by Egg puns.
Conclusion: eggs are still round but in this video, the egg puns were squared.
Doing these calcs scrambled my brain and now it's feeling fried.
I couldn't even with this one. It really cracked me up I love the puns!!! This video took a minute for me to hatch a plan for. But I had to stay with my sunny side up. Positive, and ready to come out of my shell. What a fun run to eggsplore.
Finally the eggs have found the right platform to eggspress themselves!!
I had to celebrate the new computer by finally running the eggs :)
46:28 Imma go with hp bug, because its the first thing i thought of.
I'm very surprised this wasn't a faster run, exeggcutor has nice stats and a decent move pool. I know slow growth rate can hold pokemon back, but wow. Maybe it's more my expectations from gen 1&2 though (I have almost no experience with gens 3+)?
That's fair! I eggspected a lot more from Exeggcutor as well. I was so shocked when I spent that long stuck in the R2 league. Perhaps when I run it again in Gen 4 with some new features and move diversity it will perform better :)
For hidden power being so RNG dependent. I think adding one TM to the PC and only being able to grab it after catching a Meowth. Or change the pickup rate to a higher percentage or changing the pickup rate of it to a higher amount (I don't know how difficult this would be) but I think it would help with some consistency
I was considering doing something like this. My only issue with it is that not ever Pokémon needs HP, so I feel like the time investment of collecting it is the trade-off for having literally any coverage move that I want. I've only been caught with my pants down in one run - the Magnemite line. It's a tough balance to strike! Thanks for the suggestion :) I'll continue pondering it
I JUST missed this premiere!
Oh well, I'll watch it anyways! These videos are eggceptional, and always have me scrambling to hit that watch button!
Those puns may be softboiled, but im sure they're delicious!
What, they're seeds? Uh, no. Game Freak has wobbled on this and deviled then up to eggs from time to time as well. So when they Crack the case on what they are, I'll whip up more puns.
...
...
Egg.
Hey there's always next time! Thank you I'm glad you enjoy them so much. I can't get enough of the puns. That Round 2 champ sure had me scrambled. At least having a plan didn't make it over-easy.
Dropping a comment to help your Algorithm 👍🏾
I appreciate you :) Thanks!
Might have to do Palkia an Dialga as 1. Oh and a Mew vs MewTwo as well
I'm a little timid of doing my first video in SoulSilver as a VS run. Quite actually. I'm very much a "dip your toes in the water" type of guy :) Mewtwo has been reserved for Rayquaza, but I can also make a note to throw a comparison to a Mew run in the video. How much better, if at all, is version two really?
MewTwo is an OG pokemon, Mew was a legend under a truck lol.... But MT an Ray doesn't sound bad either. Johto is my all time favorite region and its longer so whatever you do I'm good.@@Eggsceptional
@@onyxbinns8584 That Mew under the truck... I can't say how many hours I spent in that area trying to get something to work. Eventually I plan to run 'em all!
I'll wait@@Eggsceptional
Eggcelent singing
You should have heard the takes that didn't make the cut.
I feel like Leech Seed shouldve been kept for Misty & Surge since its great for those gyms, given exeggcute is great defensively.
I had considered it quite heavily. It may likely have been more consistent, considering the resets against Misty and the close call at Surge, but I wanted the damage output so badly to keep moving quickly. This one was a tough egg to crack :)
Reflect I think is less important mostly cause hypnosis provides a lot better synergy with leech seed than reflect
@@victory8928 As long as they stayed asleep long enough
Day 14 😅😅😅😅
Closer by the day!!! I spent this evening setting up my recording environment for Gen 4. Well - mostly :)
I feel like this comment is way late, but the reason the enemy kept waking up so quickly in the early game is because Uproar causes sleeping Pokémon to wake up immediately.
If only you could have commented this BEFORE the video released 😅 it was a lesson hard learned, but I did realize it by the second playthrough. Thanks for the tip :)
@@Eggsceptional I'm happy to help. Uproar's secondary effect is so niche; only a couple of attacking moves remove a status condition. Wake-Up Slap also removes Sleep, but was removed in Gen 8. Smelling Salts removes Paralysis and was also removed in Gen 8. Sparkling Aria heals Burn and is not yet in Gen 9, but will likely return when part 2 of the DLC releases.
@@TrayolLyrics I was so confused in the first playthrough when everything kept waking up. There's so many moves like that that I need to tune up my knowledge on. There's so much depth to these kids games!
How may eggciting eggcounters can eggceptional eggcounter in the egg playthrough?
I'm not sure how many of them were eggsciting. It's true that some had me eggspressing different feelings. Sometimes eggscitement. Sometimes feelings that were a bit more eggregious. Either way, I hope it was eggsceptable in the end :)
Funnily enough i upgraded my pc this year too, I had a 4770k water cooled, a gtx 970 and 120gb boot ssd, and i then grabbed 4 250gb ssds (stupid in hindsight) and 2 3tb hdd. I then upgraded to a 7600x air cooled, with a 6700xt, and 2 2tb ssds also can't stand the unicorn vomit
That's awesome! I hope you've been enjoying your new build as much as I've been enjoying mine. What a difference it makes. I like the rainbows don't get me wrong! But it becomes too much very quickly.
Do clampearl count as an egg? It does have a shell? Idk. If it doesn’t that’s fine. Don’t forget about togepi in ur competition
That's kind of a weird thing to ponder. I'd say nah? Oh yeah! Togepi. The egg we all remember from the anime and were disappointed by when it first hatched in Gold/Silver. Speaking for myself of course :)
They are failing people in schools
I did a nidoking run and only had to do a lot of resetting against my rivals blastoise (yeah yeah I know). But a fairly easy run all things considered
Nidoking and Queen are two that I'm looking forward to running. They have so many move-set options it's wild! But I can see how that Blastoise would hurt quite a bit :)
What is this no Shiny mascot....either way great job once again
I had thought about doing it as a shiny run but I didn't want the time loss from the animation. In the first run though... that was a missed opportunity. Thanks :)
I do think maybe these challenges should have some sort of sleep rule or a penalty for a Using sleep Spam, I know the moves can miss. But it really does just allow a pokemon to win Battles They shouldn't with very minimum strategy.
I guess in solo challenges. It's fine but I could see that being a bit unfair for versus battles(same with sword dance and substitute) lol
I've been getting a lot of comments about creating more challenge in my runs. It's never been the way that I enjoy playing, but I'm willing to explore having a more challenging first run. Sleep is one of those moves that very much feels like it's within the "flavour" of a Pokémon. Paras(ect) for instance. It's signature move is Spore so it would feel odd to run it without using Spore. I do appreciate the input :) I've been giving it a lot of thought lately. Thanks!
What's your favorite way to cook eggs? I like hard boiled
That's a really hard question to answer. The eggs I eat most of are over easy, but there's nothing like a softboiled egg. I love them on rice bowls, soups, like everything. I love all kind of egg preparations - especially when you mix them with butter and sugar to make cookies... mmm cookies.
They really are incredibly versatile.Also now I want cookies darnit
If I could comment on your graphing for the time comparisons I’d like to say it seems a little jumbled. I’ve found it a little difficult to glean information from it even after having seen it a few times.
That darn time graph has been through 3 iterations trying to make it better. It's starting to feel like a project that should just be axed, and reverted back to the old way of doing things. But I like colour!! I'll keep mulling it over. Thanks for the input :)
@@Eggsceptional maybe instead of lines from the left why not try putting the major splits in vertical text boxes. As long as they’re short it shouldn’t be difficult to see. Either that or switch to a vertical graph with horizontal text boxes. There’s just less space to work with doing that.
@@Dark-Aclyss Hmmm. I had another suggestion to make it an xy type graph with x being time, y being the splits. I feel like that format may be the one to pursue - but I make the graphs manually. Straight lines made editing it way faster. I feel like I might just keep it as is, or revert to the old "slap data on the screen" method until 2024 when I have the time to completely rework it. Maybe even automate its creation in some way! I appreciate the input :)
so mr egghead, I must ask. How do you take your eggs?
(this is a fair question. I Asked GLM his favourite "sodie pop")
That depends on what I'm having! At a "breakfast out" I'll have them over easy. Most mornings though I start my day with a vege/sausage/scramble. With my rice bowls/ramen it's always soft boiled. I eat a lot of eggs 🤤
@@Eggsceptional your thoughts on pickled eggs???
@@DoctorKamino They're eggceptable but I don't eat them very often.
Imagine if Egghead had spore instead of hypnosis
well it does get sleep powder which is 15% better to hit than hypnosis
Ah, sweet wondrous Spore. That would have changed things. 75% definitely felt better than 60%, but 100% accuracy Sleep Powder was not.
