One time I leveled larvitar from 5 to 100 at the beginning route (can't remember how long it took) but I would like to do another challenge the pikasprey's softlock with larvitar Edit: also congratulations on completing the g/s/c oak challenge ^^
If you ever do a Johto run again, here's a little secret, immediately after releasing the beasts head west to the route with grass, you will always encounter one, that you can use the Pokedex to track it. The route on the way to the moo moo farm.
Dude this whole run insane, the first part with the berries is the worst self inflicted masochistic level torture i've ever seen in these challenges.. and i'm a full odds shiny hunter. You've got yourself a new subscriber, good job!
@@Pimpmedown In my HG nuzlocke, (don't ask me why I have a Graveler) I was able to clear out the Clefairy and Miltank using Quilava (Linkle) (Female), and Graveler (Yumi) (Female). SoulSilver was different since I have Bayleef (Lomax) (Male), and Rocky (Female), it's almost the same result.
My head cannon is that a fair number of gen 1 pokemon are actually native to Johto, not Kanto. There are a handful that are exclusive to the safari zone - where you would go to see something exotic - or are a one off through a trade.
@@marnixmaximus3053 Pinsir, Scyther, Tauros, and Farfetch’d were the ones I had in mind, since they are catchable in the wild in Johto. Even though the bugs are in the park, a national park seems like preservation and exhibition of native wildlife or geography.
@@dittmar104 Also aviable in the wild in sinnoh now. And iirc they are canonicaly in the wild in yellow and let's go atleast, just not case for gameplay.
I actually wanted to attempt this, and I tried it on an emulator. I knew about the berry tree for moon stone part, but I thought that won't be a problem. It was, I didn't realize berries only sell for 5 poke dollars. So I quit, even though I was using an emulator and changing my computer's clock, which was faster than changing the game's clock. So I can't imagine how painful your experience must have been.
That's an insane level of commitment and sanity you possess. I would have quit hour 2 into collecting the berries at the very start. Props, you've definitely earned a new subscriber
First time seeing ur channel and wanna say the editing, style of script, and general layout of this vid are excellent. Succinct and clear commentary of everything. Cheers!
This time you had the Dragonair to grind, but same thing applies in Crystal and GS, you can get to Route 44 as soon as you GET 7 badges, just cannot fight Clair until clearing rockets, for extra things to grind.
God this POC looks like hell. I'm about 2/3s of the way through a Red POC, and I thought the 4% safari mons and Dragonite were bad, but they're nothing on this. Very impressive.
great video!! seeing Johto in these games always brings up good feels.. also your Pickup Squad method is awesome! utilizing it rn on a new run of Pokemon Shield congrats on getting so many subscribers, hope you get hundreds more! 👍👍👍
You could speed up a bit the hunting of the roamers, getting the first one right off the bat after awakening them. immediatly after they are freed do the following: 1-save 2-dig or escape rope out of burned tower 3-go out to the route south or west of ecruteak 4- repel with a pokemon first in your party that is higher level than the normal wild pokemon in the route you are but lower than lvl 40 (preferrably faster than the lvl 40 roamers and with a trapping move) 5- run into the grass until you either get the roamer or you don't. if you don't reset and repeat. you can pretty easily and consistently get one roamer immediatly with this method, as they flee and go to any of the adjacent routes
I wish people doing these challenges would just complete the whole dex and allow trading for the pokemon that require it to evolve... I want to see the dialogue when you have the completed dex lol
Never watched you channel before but I was eating meatballs while browsing recommended and saw your name so I thought it would be fitting. Good video I subbed
If this wasn't enough work, some day you should do the same challenge with no cap on when species need to evolve, just catch every species between the gym leaders, and do all the leveling at the end of the game to see how much faster it is lol
I was wondering why he wasn't doing that. If it was to get the fastest time, no way is evolving dnite pre Whitney fast. Would have been way faster if he leveled in victory road or Mt silver.
@@svx4401 my guess would be to keep them all consistent as that seems to be one of his rules - finish the evolutions before the gym leader. I think it's a rule that has wasted alot of his time over these challenges though lol
@@Mega11683 sorry - I am unfamiliar with the history of the POC, how it came about, and/or why this rule is the way it is. I think it's a silly rule irregardless
My hand automatically went towards the "plus" key on the keyboard to ease my suffering. I see there's still some muscle memories from the late 90's playing using NO$GMB.
Hi, i recently found your channel, and I have to say, this is one of the most interesting concepts that I've seen in a while! One question... are you planning on doing another hackrom in the future? Because I think it would be interesting to see you attempting drayano's sacred gold or storm silver, since those rom hacks have pokedex completion challenges
The tree grinding just seems so excessive. Like I know the point of a POC is to be tedious, but the 9 hours of berry farming is just too much to me. I feel like that should be an exception. Also you can't tell me that it's actually faster to grind 300 apricorns than to just gamble for the coins you need. GSC made the slots a lot easier to game. If you get somewhat good at timing the reel stops, you could easily get the coins you need in less than an hour.
Finding the 3 beasts took me probably at least 18 hours of using repel trick and running in grass etc. Followed every guide on the internet and they just would not show up
aaaaaahhhhh i love your videos sm!!!! maybe for a side vid you could see how long it takes for you to get all the unown variations even tho you dont anything from it.
What this guy does is so cool and BY THE WAY WHYY DOES CHAOTIC MEATBALL STILL DOESN'T HAVE 1M SUBSCRIBERS come on guys we can give him 1M subs By the way im a big fan of your work Mr. Chaotic Meatball
Just to think outside of the box does anybody think grinding to find a lucky egg on chanseys would be a good idea? I know the odds on chansey are slim and then finding one with a lucky egg even slimmer but I would think with the repel trick getting that egg would make up some time for grinding
With the use of the cloning glitch you could've gotten all of the stone evolution pokemon. I understand not using it to get multiple eevees and such since that cheapens the breeding system, but using it to get necessary items to expand the pokedex count i think would be fine for getting said items only.
That might be a slippery slop, if that's allowed, why not the item creation glitch for example or requiring you to obtain all 3 starters since that's possible via a minor exploit.
@@alexisthetransgenderduelis4211 well the item creation glitch is pretty lengthy if I remember right and I'm not opposed to getting the other 2 starters (I actually forgot about that part of the glitch). Again im okay with it so long as it doesn't cheapen the gameplay/challenge and its benefits are very limited. Cloning a Thunderstone evolves multiple pokemon, but cloning a masterball defeats the challenge in catching and rare candies defeats the purpose of high level evolutions.
@@eyalinbar4845You can get one every Sunday. Simply change the in game clock to Sundays and you're making 500 a reset instead of 5. This wouldn't speed up the in game time, but would certainly speed up real time!
@@eyalinbar4845 He needs it to evolve jigglybuff which he caught early and he CAN get the money through the berries so in the spirit of the challenge he has to do it this way.
So would it have been possible to use mystery gift to get the stones you needed? It doesn't violate any of the rules and I even hear it is possible to use the feature on the 3ds. This would increase the total
Wait why didn’t you get the other eevelutions in Kanto pre badge 2, I thought the rule was to catch and evolve every available Pokémon before each gym badge?
I have a few personal challenges left to complete on my Crystal Emulator, and then I’m gonna do the Professor Oak Challenge…and I’m not excited for it 😅😅😅
I was never very good at getting the three beasts as a kid. But, hmmmm, that method seems great and I want to try it haha. I wonder if a similar method exists for HGSS...???
Wait you can get Heracross that early in Silver? I thought it wasn't until Crystal that they let you encounter it at the trees around the lake just past Mahogany Town. I could've swore that was the only place you could get it.

Well Done on 100k!
You deserve so many likes for this. The fact that this is before abilities and you had to level up dratini before Whitney is TORTURE!
less torture than whitney normally :))
I tried getting Dragonite before the Gengar gym as a kid and I think I remember it saying I had 20 hours in the game and I still didn't have it

I just started playing Pokemon Go and I was amazed at how high the odds are at getting shinies. They took the fun out of shiny hunting.
@@MrMali22 yeah, doing a shiny living dex POC rn
@@MrMali22 Yeah, in go you get them all the time. I don't know a single person who doesn't have several shiny legendaries.
@@brotbrotsen1100 I only have one, but then, I never do raids or... well, anything involved with interacting with other people.

Whitney: *:O*
Miltank: *proceeds to rollout the Dragonite out of existence anyway*
(Just kidding, don't take this seriously)
At least this gym badge will be more deserved. She won't have time to cry it'll be over that fast. Just pure shock.
not to forget that miltank was downed by a critical attack :D

@@rockmanzeromodernday941 i like having gravler in HG because he gets really OP in some fights where i dont really have other options in my team.

Same way some gen 2 Pokémon like houndour are only in kanto
Like which pokemon would be native to Johto from gen 1? I like the idea, but which ones would be native?
@@marnixmaximus3053 Pinsir, Scyther, Tauros, and Farfetch’d were the ones I had in mind, since they are catchable in the wild in Johto. Even though the bugs are in the park, a national park seems like preservation and exhibition of native wildlife or geography.
Eevee is probably native to kalos being one of the few places to find them in the wild far from human contact.
@@dittmar104 Also aviable in the wild in sinnoh now. And iirc they are canonicaly in the wild in yellow and let's go atleast, just not case for gameplay.
You beat Whitney so bad she actually had a reason to cry
Yeah, the level discrepency was so high that dragonite probably killed her pokemon.
Bro u legit just copied exactly what Johnstone said after he beat Whitney on his Pokémon gold professor oak challenge lmao 😂

I am pretty sure you can write macros in mgba and then just leave it on overnight
@@pannekook2000 interesting, though I don't know how to do that and I don't want to leave my computer overnight. Thanks for the advice though
@pannekook2000 if you're going to that much trouble you may as well just cheat....
It's so crazy that some pokemon introduced in gen 2 aren't available until the post game. Not to mention a pseudo legendary after all 16 badges.
These Prof Oak challenges are hands down the most insane and impressive Pokemon videos I've ever seen. Absolutely next level.

great video!! seeing Johto in these games always brings up good feels.. also your Pickup Squad method is awesome! utilizing it rn on a new run of Pokemon Shield
congrats on getting so many subscribers, hope you get hundreds more! 👍👍👍
You could speed up a bit the hunting of the roamers, getting the first one right off the bat after awakening them. immediatly after they are freed do the following:
1-save
2-dig or escape rope out of burned tower
3-go out to the route south or west of ecruteak
4- repel with a pokemon first in your party that is higher level than the normal wild pokemon in the route you are but lower than lvl 40 (preferrably faster than the lvl 40 roamers and with a trapping move)
5- run into the grass until you either get the roamer or you don't. if you don't reset and repeat.
you can pretty easily and consistently get one roamer immediatly with this method, as they flee and go to any of the adjacent routes

Imagen using the duping glitch you could've had more Pokemon count 🤣 I'm definitely going to do this as well with only the dupe glitch

Big thanks for the effort and well made video!
Quick thing: you forgot to include the headbut map
When you start watching this at 130am, and finish watching it at 110am 🥴🥴
i really appreciate all the wrestling references you make
if you want another game to do a POC on then conquest seems like it would be an interesting one
Another awesome POC
Agree that 199 is such a triggering number since could've been 200
Really interesting Berry harvesting trick to make money

"grab urself a drink or two"
starts to shake my snapple
my snapple fact was pigs can get a sunburn enjoy
Only Chaotic Meatball has the balls to say Chris Benoit during a POC lol
Pokemon Silver was my favorite and the one I spent the most time in, I'm so stoked to watch this.
I was today years old when I learned headbutting trees would make Pokémons fall out of it...
This game changed my life
Between gens 1, 2, and 3, what's the quickest game for doing the POC?
12:37 love the wwe reference
200 subs away from that 100k!!!!!!!!! Let’s do this!

i know it's nothing fancy, but your haircut looks great man!
why is it that i cant see the date the videos get uploaded sometimes? this video here i cant see it. nothing serious of course but i do wonder.
When he reached mt silver and said misdrevous I was like WHEN. I thought it was a version exclusive
Wait you can get Heracross that early in Silver? I thought it wasn't until Crystal that they let you encounter it at the trees around the lake just past Mahogany Town. I could've swore that was the only place you could get it.
