Let's journey down the pokemon iceberg with everything from MissingNo. to whether or not Mew is actually hiding under that truck. #iceberg #pokemon #lore
my cousin took my copy of red and said "wanna see something cool?" and did the missingno trick and it scared me so bad i cried for an hour at applebees 😂
No joke my cousin also showed me, my sis and lil bro how to Missingno too XD, unfortunately for my sister it wasn’t doable with pokemon yellow so me and my lil bro with red and blue had the advantage
@@VaultLoreMissingno can‘t physically mess with your Save File. The only place Missingno is able to corrupt is the hall of fame. Also a few things you said in the video: It can‘t "combust" your inventory, as it just flips the first byte of the seventh item‘s amount ID, effectively increasing its amount by 127. That‘s all Missingno. does to your Inventory. There are indeed several different Missingno. Forms, but you can only encounter one variant with the Missingno glitch. There is one other very similar Pokémon to Missingno with almost the same effects that can appear as well, called M'(and a bunch of glitched characters). Changing your Name won‘t let you encounter more Missingno. variants. Missingno's cry is btw. just Slowbros cry. M's cry is basically Cloysters cry. You must have heard either of those (probably Cloysters, because Slowbros cry doesn‘t sound menacing at all).
I hate the misconception that poke-dollars are equivalent to American dollars, in reality it’s based on the Japanese currency Yen and 100 yen is roughly 1 dollar so that “million dollar bike” is only like 10,000 dollars, still a ludicrous amount but not a million dollars. The trainers aren’t giving you 3,000 dollars at the end of a battle, it’s 30 bucks so no you’re not stealing a ton of money from these people.Also throughout a Pokémon gen 1 play through the max amount of poke-dollars you can get is 999,999 which would only be 9,999 dollars, so no you’re not a millionaire or even that rich by the end. Hate this misconception with a passion
Using strength on the truck, pushing it from the left 3 times, then using teleport 2 steps to the right of it didn't get me Mew, though it did cure my hiccups
I think if you use strength on the truck, use cut on the tires, push it to the left twice and then use strength again on the front door of the truck, the game takes a screenshot as well
This is so much less cruel than the rumors we had, when I was a child. If I remember correctly, you allegedly needed a Lv. 100 Golem with 100% perfect stats and Strength. I assume this was to keep people from just cloning rare candies. Luckily nobody of us really sunk time into that rumor, but we also had no idea about DVs and stat experience back then. I only knew about vitamins. By the way, we had a completely glitchless way to access the SS Anne again back then. Interestingly nobody talks about this (in my opinion) obvious way. You just have to black out on the ship after getting HM1, and it will never leave. Now you can just enter the dock again when you have Surf, even without using the Surf glitch. We didn’t even know about the Surf Glitch back in the day 20+ years ago.
Fun fact: TMs and HMs are used in a computer type of thingy to teach the pokemon NOT futuristic and Egyptian codes or pokehistory. Ha "how to insert them?" In the anime and animations they use a computer to teach a pokemon a TM or HM. Much us like humans if you watch a movie on a cd in a computer you remember the plot, characters and everything in that movie just like TMs and HMs.
To answer your fun lil question, I've caught them all in blue, obviously since it was on emulator I had no way of trading, I had to use the mew glitch to get the trade evos, the mutually exclusive pokemon (like the eeveelutions, the starters, and the fighting dojo fellas) and version exclusives. and mew. It took over 100 hours of game time, but I did pull it off, ending by evolving dragonair into dragonite.
I finally, after 20+, years completed a pokedex in pokemon red, but decided to take it a step forward and complete a living dex on top of it. Using og hardware with an n64 transfer pak.
Later, when they introduced Shiny Pokémon, Mew and Ditto's Shiny version are both blue. It almost feels like a confirmation of the, "Ditto are failed Mew Clones" Theory. Maybe just a coincidence as well.
I forget where, but in some media TMs and HMs are shown to literally be CDs that the Pokemon listen to to learn the move (with little headphones and everything. Very cute). Hence why they keep the 'music' theme in SWSH with TRs, which are literally records like for a record player. I do love the FRLG animation though, where you just slap it on their forehead and they absorb it somehow. As for the Butterfree-Venomoth switch... I don't think young kids would notice or care about the difference between a butterfly and a moth, particularly with jank RGBY sprites. I do think that, originally, they were they were the other way around, but I don't think the switch was an accident. I think they wanted a stronger contrast between the intimidating Beedrill and the cuter Butterfree in the early game. Venomoth is kinda creepy looking if you don't like bugs. I think they realized Butterfree was more appealing to a wide audience, design-wise and swapped them thinking no one would notice or care. Pokemon's success was kind of a miracle, and I don't think they EVER expected the game to be scrutinized to such an insane degree as it has been.
I remember looking up how to glitch Yellow, used my hand-me-down cart from my big brother, found Mew, lv100s before Brock, and even Yellow's Missingno. Poor thing doesn't boot anymore lol.
Haha honestly some thing might be best left in the past… but also I bet you could buy a game boy and Pokémon yellow for not that much.. gotta get that SP for the backlit screen though.
btw, the old man glitch works because the old man tutorial stores your player name in the encounter table's data (because the game needs to change your name to Old Man for the tutorial and it needs somewhere to put your own name whilst its changed and the encounter table won't be used until its changed since your in a city) When you fly to cinnabar, the encounter table doesn't change because cinnabar has no encounters but the water route next to it only has water encounters so land encounters don't get changed but the shore of cinnabar is improperly labelled as a land tile rather a water tile even tho you surf on it so you encounter land pokemon and since the land pokemon encounter table is currently your name, you'll see weird pokemon based off your name (with each odd character being the pokemon encountered and each even being the level) its actually really cool how this works because it means you can encounter any land encounters next to cinnabar, if you enter the safari zone then leave and fly to the cinnabar shore, you'll encounter the safari pokemon in a normal battle, meaning you can get chansey/scyther/pinsir without having to do the safari game
Also, for the HMs and TMs, there's something else in the game that leads to maybe them being some sort of ancient technique used by trainers. After defeating Koga, he gives you the TM for Toxic and tells you that it was a technique passed down in his family. So, this could lead to the theory that TMs could be ancient techniques from ancient tribes and trainers.
The thing about the pushing buttons to improve catch rates is that it's _kinda_ true...technically. Player button presses do affect the RNG of the game, and in a way that can be predicted and manipulated. Speedrunners will do this to get things like good layouts of Lt. Surge's trash can puzzle. So, at least in theory, if you did the right button presses at the right times, you _could_ manipulate the random number generator to give you a better catch rate. It's just that there was no single specific input to do it.
What about mewthree, voltorb being a posessed pokeball, pokemon black, HM jump, forth evolutions, charizard island, the 11 missing eeveelutions. We also had a playground rumor that charizard could melt the truck with flamethrower and become metal charizard. Not sure how that one was supposed to work since flamethrower can't be used outside of battle.
I had yellow, a cousin with blue, and a friend with red. Completing the dex was my priority above battles, so I got all 151. Good times. I had named my character Ash and my rival Gary, and when I tried the missingno trick, it took ages to encounter anything and when it finally happened it was like a lv70 Starmie, and then an aerodactyl fossil. I got no duplicated items, and Gary's name changed to Zary. I felt very confused and never tried it again lmao
Hey, wanna know a secret? If you bought these games on eshop the glitches ALL still work. Also Evil Cousin 'M is the one that duplicates the 7th item, and really messes up your Hall of Fame data. I personally have played and beaten the E4 with a Missingno. in my party, but I don't recommend catching 'M. 'M is always at level 80 (Wild pokemon caught via Mew and OLD MAN glitch can be >255, 256 it resets to 0) and when you catch it there is an invisible one behind it at level 0 that you can catch again. So I think it is a backdoor into a function. Idk what function, someone probably could do the math and figure it out. I think Missingno. are indeed empty spaces or scrapped 'mon (39 actually do correspond to GBC Pokemon and turn into them when traded through time capsule. This would have made an even 190.) (Plus extra sprites like GHOST or FOSSIL are stored in the extra spaces.)
Slight error at 37:37 (Clefable). The fairy type was introduced in generation 6, not 4. Apart from that, awesome video man. I’ve watched my share of iceberg videos before, but I really like your style and energy. Edit: I’m sure others commented on this so I don’t mean to nitpick. Really enjoyed this video, man.
Also if anyone is interested in how the OLD MAN/Cinnabar Island glitch works or if they want help creating a name to generate a specific Pokemon I can help.
I had fun using Brock through walls and Ditto glitching me a team and defeating the Elite 4 with no badges 😎 (Trainer fly glitch, I got an Abra and never used a Pokémon center) I even obtained the ????? Surf board item, bike too
This is the first time I‘ve heard anything about a "Super Splash", nor can I find anything about this on Google. What are your sources, when you said "Fans have been splashing for years" hoping it does something different?
If you google splash and damage there are many people asking in forums and posts about whether it does damage. I remember as a kid being told it could, usually lore passed around a playground is not specific to one group of kids and travels remarkably far. On top of this, as I mentioned, some Pokédex entries are misleading and Nintendo/game freak seems to intentionally make magikarp a little secretive.
Well "splash damage" is a term which already exists. Googling "Pokémon Splash Damage" or "Magikarp Splash damage" yielded no such results, besides the oddball forum entry of someone swearing Splash did do some damage for them once. But nothing about the "hidden one hit KO move", or anything you have described. That‘s why I was asking. I have never heard about this before, but you made it sound like we should have heard about this before. > On top of this, as I mentioned, some Pokédex entries are misleading As far as I know it‘s only the Pokedex entry in Pokemon Platinum, and this is a Gen 1 iceberg. Pokedex entries before Pokemon Platinum made absolutely no secret about how bad Magikarp is. In Pokemon Ruby/Saphire it was even called a sorry excuse for a Pokemon that can only splash around. I‘m pretty sure Pokémon Platinum was the first Pokédex entry to ever make Magikarp not look like the worst thing ever, and this probably has something to do with the easteregg where you can catch Lv. 100 Magikarp in the Resort Area, technically making it the highest leveled wild Pokemon in history. Even tho later games (like HG/SS or Black/White) kept the "A Magikarp living for many years can jump a Mountain" text, the Pokedex entries went out of their way to tell the player, that the move itself is useless. Just in case there is any confusion.
@@VaultLore Well, if there really were that many people asking questions in the first place😅 I can only speak for myself, but for us Magikarp has always been a complete joke of a Pokemon. We saw it for Its Gimmick, the weakest Pokemon turning into the strongest non (Pseudo) Legendary Pokemon in the game. That was enough for us. The Anime, and the Narrator in Pokemon Stadium, did the rest for us. The whole Franchise did it‘s best to convey how utterly weak of a Pokemon Magikarp is.
Ok, here i am BEFORE watching to say, im a grumpy old man and dont like anything after gen2 and i only slightly put up with gen 2. Dont let me down Not Jake. I did the missingNo. trick and got 99 master balls and then didnit again and got infinite rarw candies, then i did it again and caught it, eventulaly after ysing it for a wbile it turned into a mewtwo. Alright, videos over and i loved it as much as the others. Great job dude!!!
37:32 Correction: Fairy Type wasn't introduced until Generation 6. Not exactly sure where Generation 4 came from in this situation. Also, as far as TMs go, they've been depicted in several different ways throughout the series. Most of the time they're CDs, but in some original artwork for Red and Green, they're bands that Pokemon wear. In GO, they're some sort of digital scroll type thing. And then, perhaps the most interesting, is in The Electric Tale of Pikachu, where they're these weird cubes of... dust? Data? I'm not entirely sure, but it's certainly unique. They also appear as cubes in the early TCG, but they're machines that you put a Poke Ball into. TMs are also absent in Legends Arceus, suggesting at the very least they're a more modern invention, which tracks with the name, "Technical Machine." Also, on Pikablu: There are actually official Topps cards for the promotion of the First Movie that feature Marill, which is explicitly referred to as Pikablu. Seems that someone at Topps caught wind of the rumor and mistook it as the official name or something.
If you use the Ditto glitch to encounter a LVL 7 Mew, and happen to catch it after it uses the move Transform, the Pokedex will register it as a Ditto.
I went back and caught all 151 in Blue, though I had to use a glitch to get mew. Silver I was lucky and I got gold and silver, so I was able to borrow my friend's gameboy and trade over all the starter's and rare stuff, and version exclusives from gold. As well as time machine all my pokemon off blue. I did everything but celebi in silver.
I found missingno because I was at the library and some kids helped me find it surf off cinnabar island to get masterballs and shiz. I thought it was cool. It was years ago tho. Dang the good old days.
Of course as a after game challenge we tried to get all 150 Pokémon. Once I did this on a trip from Germany to Spain in my parents car just to check if I am capable to finish it until we arrive in our holiday location 😅 and yes I did it.
Weather or not I caught them all in Gen 1 depends on if count Mew. I never had a Pokemon event come to my area and didn't want to use glitches. I caught all the other 150 though
Little addon, it wasn't actually only English player input that made the name pikablu! I thought it was a second hand source, but I think it was actually an official pokemon sort of advertisement card summarizing the events of the movie (?) Along with a little screenshot! There's listings for it on eBay, which is where I found out about it, I think. It's such a weird bit of trivia, why name the character if you haven't gotten the name for it yet, lol
damn, this auto played while i was playing Dwarf Fortress and i genuinely thought you had a few hundred thousand subs and likes. Way to high quality to be dinking around in the low thousands...
If u want to play the gen 1 games get a modded 3ds or mod a regular one yourself there are.many tutorials online. And you can download the virtual console games for FREE which includes all gen 2 and gen 1 games and u can transfer the pokemon to pokemom bank and then to pokemon home. Id reccoemend a 3ds if u want to play them
The butterfree/venonat switch is more likely because of the limitations of the gameboys display lots of Pokémon had to share more simple features(lots of unrelated gen1 Pokémon share the same eyes) and it’s just a coincidence instead of a switch imo
Huh, I find the whole thing related to Lavender Town to be strange, I was 8 when I was playing Red/Blue, and I never had any of these symptoms or anything. Though the Ghost sprite still gives me the creeps after all these years. 🥶
@@The_LydIt is. But there is the whole theme song one key higher in the files, which is a certified trigger for those of us with migraine attacks. I'm glad they changed it. It may have been used in Green? I don't remember. But that song + creepy ghost town = creepypastas everywhere.
on the topic of TMs, in the Indigo Disc, one of the characters talks about how the titular item, the "indigo disc" speaks, which is similar to the TM system. in the I-D case, they put it into a Computer, and it spoke to the players. I assume then, that the TMS are given with a small cd player/laptop like system, and it speaks the commands to the pokemon? or it shows them how to do it?
I hate to be that guy, but this iceberg is pretty lame. There's only like 4 things per tier, and I know pretty much all of it at this point. There's so much about gen1 that's obscure that this video just didn't cover.
You don’t have to like every video, sorry this one didn’t deliver for you! Would love to hear what other topics you wish it would have covered. This is new to me, only made a few videos at this point, but I’d rather spend more time on a few topics than 30 seconds on a bunch of random ones.
@@VaultLore Other topics I would have included: Beta Pokemon cut from the first game, instant text glitch/bike shop glitch, badge boost glitch, catching safari zone pokemon in regular battles, mechanics behind Missingno/Old man glitch, generation 1 battle mechanics/quirks, glitch pokemon that aren't missingno, tradeback moves with gold&silver, similar/identical cries, japanese pokemon green sprites, gameboy printer functionality with Yellow, and manipulating custom movesets with Pokemon Stadium. Also, Red & Blue may have been the first Pokemon games, but they weren't all of gen 1. Gen 1 also had Stadium and Snap. There could be some entries related to those games. I'm sure it must feel overwhelming as a young creator to have to make a video this long, but maybe you could break a larger iceberg down into smaller chunks? I've always found tasks easier to do when they're organized like that. :)
Might just have to make a second video at some point! Haha I’m not young, I’m just figuring this out while working a normal career. Not as much time in my day as a high school or college kid. Kind of sounds like you should be making videos if you already know about all these topics!
@@VaultLore Perhaps I will make videos in the future, but I've got too much going on in my personal life to even tinker with video editing. One day I will start making content, when I'm fully independent. It's just a matter of when.
12:44 They do have some similarities. All Pokemon eggs are represented by a single sprite which looks identical to a Yoshi egg🥚. & once they hatch, Yoshis & Pokemon r obedient to humans.

also how does this video have such low likes and views??? this video is excellent!:)
Aw thanks so much! Idk hopefully more people will see it. Glad you enjoyed it! Making me want to go play red haha
No joke my cousin also showed me, my sis and lil bro how to Missingno too XD, unfortunately for my sister it wasn’t doable with pokemon yellow so me and my lil bro with red and blue had the advantage
I shared a save file with my brother and it messed with it pretty bad hahaha
@@VaultLoreMissingno can‘t physically mess with your Save File. The only place Missingno is able to corrupt is the hall of fame.
Also a few things you said in the video:
It can‘t "combust" your inventory, as it just flips the first byte of the seventh item‘s amount ID, effectively increasing its amount by 127. That‘s all Missingno. does to your Inventory.

What an incredibly specific thing to hate with a passion, but good point!
Especially cuz the shop prices would be absurd. If a great ball was $300 there would be riots.
I always called it Poke-yen. Poke dollars is stupid
Using strength on the truck, pushing it from the left 3 times, then using teleport 2 steps to the right of it didn't get me Mew, though it did cure my hiccups
Sounds about right!
I think if you use strength on the truck, use cut on the tires, push it to the left twice and then use strength again on the front door of the truck, the game takes a screenshot as well

Teachy TV moment
I always just imagined it as inserting the disc inside of the pokemon's forehead akin to White snake in JoJo
I figured you insert it into the Pokéball.
To answer your fun lil question, I've caught them all in blue, obviously since it was on emulator I had no way of trading, I had to use the mew glitch to get the trade evos, the mutually exclusive pokemon (like the eeveelutions, the starters, and the fighting dojo fellas) and version exclusives. and mew.
It took over 100 hours of game time, but I did pull it off, ending by evolving dragonair into dragonite.
That’s awesome! I feel like I always capped out around 70 or 80. Always started strong but lost interest in catching just for sake of catching.
I finally, after 20+, years completed a pokedex in pokemon red, but decided to take it a step forward and complete a living dex on top of it. Using og hardware with an n64 transfer pak.
Later, when they introduced Shiny Pokémon, Mew and Ditto's Shiny version are both blue. It almost feels like a confirmation of the, "Ditto are failed Mew Clones" Theory. Maybe just a coincidence as well.
I always assumed TM’s were just for the trainer to watch and then teach the Pokémon. Like an instructional video burned onto a CD
That's kinda how the anime presents them.
37:31 fairy type was not introduced in gen 4 it was in gen 6
Yeah mixed up gen IV and gen VI when I read it. Oops!

That’s true, hindsight is crazy when we’re talking about a game when they had no idea if it would be a success.
Better than the imagery of Red force-feeding a TM disc to a Pigotto like the pokemon are supposed to EAT them. XD
Insane how this channel hasn’t blown up yet, great video
Fingers crossed! Thanks for watching!
The Venonat & Butterfree thing blew me away! Can't believe I never noticed that! Nice video!🔥🔥👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

btw, the old man glitch works because the old man tutorial stores your player name in the encounter table's data (because the game needs to change your name to Old Man for the tutorial and it needs somewhere to put your own name whilst its changed and the encounter table won't be used until its changed since your in a city)
When you fly to cinnabar, the encounter table doesn't change because cinnabar has no encounters but the water route next to it only has water encounters so land encounters don't get changed but the shore of cinnabar is improperly labelled as a land tile rather a water tile even tho you surf on it so you encounter land pokemon
and since the land pokemon encounter table is currently your name, you'll see weird pokemon based off your name (with each odd character being the pokemon encountered and each even being the level)
its actually really cool how this works because it means you can encounter any land encounters next to cinnabar, if you enter the safari zone then leave and fly to the cinnabar shore, you'll encounter the safari pokemon in a normal battle, meaning you can get chansey/scyther/pinsir without having to do the safari game

Your character talk when he lets his Pokémon out when you catch a Pokémon or if you miss a pokeball 🤣

Missingno cheat in this video was way easier than the way we got him in my school. We only knew about the seafoam island missingno
What about mewthree, voltorb being a posessed pokeball, pokemon black, HM jump, forth evolutions, charizard island, the 11 missing eeveelutions.
We also had a playground rumor that charizard could melt the truck with flamethrower and become metal charizard. Not sure how that one was supposed to work since flamethrower can't be used outside of battle.

Hahaha dang you’re one of the only people I know that actually did the full 151. Nice!

This is the first time I‘ve heard anything about a "Super Splash", nor can I find anything about this on Google. What are your sources, when you said "Fans have been splashing for years" hoping it does something different?
If you google splash and damage there are many people asking in forums and posts about whether it does damage. I remember as a kid being told it could, usually lore passed around a playground is not specific to one group of kids and travels remarkably far.
On top of this, as I mentioned, some Pokédex entries are misleading and Nintendo/game freak seems to intentionally make magikarp a little secretive.
Well "splash damage" is a term which already exists. Googling "Pokémon Splash Damage" or "Magikarp Splash damage" yielded no such results, besides the oddball forum entry of someone swearing Splash did do some damage for them once. But nothing about the "hidden one hit KO move", or anything you have described. That‘s why I was asking. I have never heard about this before, but you made it sound like we should have heard about this before.
> On top of this, as I mentioned, some Pokédex entries are misleading
As far as I know it‘s only the Pokedex entry in Pokemon Platinum, and this is a Gen 1 iceberg. Pokedex entries before Pokemon Platinum made absolutely no secret about how bad Magikarp is. In Pokemon Ruby/Saphire it was even called a sorry excuse for a Pokemon that can only splash around.
I‘m pretty sure Pokémon Platinum was the first Pokédex entry to ever make Magikarp not look like the worst thing ever, and this probably has something to do with the easteregg where you can catch Lv. 100 Magikarp in the Resort Area, technically making it the highest leveled wild Pokemon in history.
Even tho later games (like HG/SS or Black/White) kept the "A Magikarp living for many years can jump a Mountain" text, the Pokedex entries went out of their way to tell the player, that the move itself is useless. Just in case there is any confusion.
I think the fact that they say it’s useless so explicitly is probably what leads to people asking questions.
@@VaultLore Well, if there really were that many people asking questions in the first place😅
I can only speak for myself, but for us Magikarp has always been a complete joke of a Pokemon. We saw it for Its Gimmick, the weakest Pokemon turning into the strongest non (Pseudo) Legendary Pokemon in the game. That was enough for us.
The Anime, and the Narrator in Pokemon Stadium, did the rest for us. The whole Franchise did it‘s best to convey how utterly weak of a Pokemon Magikarp is.
Until one day when game freak slips in a 1 in a million 1hit KO
Ok, here i am BEFORE watching to say, im a grumpy old man and dont like anything after gen2 and i only slightly put up with gen 2. Dont let me down Not Jake.
I did the missingNo. trick and got 99 master balls and then didnit again and got infinite rarw candies, then i did it again and caught it, eventulaly after ysing it for a wbile it turned into a mewtwo.
Alright, videos over and i loved it as much as the others. Great job dude!!!
The super fan returns! Thanks for watching!
How old Are you?
@@thomasc9248 34 🤣
37:32 Correction: Fairy Type wasn't introduced until Generation 6. Not exactly sure where Generation 4 came from in this situation.
Also, as far as TMs go, they've been depicted in several different ways throughout the series. Most of the time they're CDs, but in some original artwork for Red and Green, they're bands that Pokemon wear. In GO, they're some sort of digital scroll type thing. And then, perhaps the most interesting, is in The Electric Tale of Pikachu, where they're these weird cubes of... dust? Data? I'm not entirely sure, but it's certainly unique. They also appear as cubes in the early TCG, but they're machines that you put a Poke Ball into. TMs are also absent in Legends Arceus, suggesting at the very least they're a more modern invention, which tracks with the name, "Technical Machine."
Also, on Pikablu: There are actually official Topps cards for the promotion of the First Movie that feature Marill, which is explicitly referred to as Pikablu. Seems that someone at Topps caught wind of the rumor and mistook it as the official name or something.
I just flipped gen “VI” and “IV” when I read it, that’s all.
It’s crazy somebody had randomly talk to the drunk guy flew too cinnabar Island use surf and encountered missing no and boom the who world knew lol😂
I was watching this while I was playing ddlc. I was in the section you hang out with Sayori, right before the festival
Supreme video my dude.
Thanks for watching!!
15:15
Some sort of floppy disk? Those are CDs 😅
They also show up as floppy discs!
If you use the Ditto glitch to encounter a LVL 7 Mew, and happen to catch it after it uses the move Transform, the Pokedex will register it as a Ditto.
All Pokémon can turn themselves into pure light. They do this when they’re in a ball. They turn into that laser and read the tm like a cd player.
😂
I went back and caught all 151 in Blue, though I had to use a glitch to get mew. Silver I was lucky and I got gold and silver, so I was able to borrow my friend's gameboy and trade over all the starter's and rare stuff, and version exclusives from gold.
As well as time machine all my pokemon off blue. I did everything but celebi in silver.
Something tells me missingno was intentional, because how the fuck did anyone figure this out?
I found missingno because I was at the library and some kids helped me find it surf off cinnabar island to get masterballs and shiz. I thought it was cool. It was years ago tho. Dang the good old days.
True nostalgia
@@VaultLore Yes indeed.
7:00 bro I feel this so hard. I swear the older brother of my best friend did this
I can literally picture it in my mind hahaha
Of course as a after game challenge we tried to get all 150 Pokémon. Once I did this on a trip from Germany to Spain in my parents car just to check if I am capable to finish it until we arrive in our holiday location 😅 and yes I did it.
You’re a stronger trainer than me 😂
Weather or not I caught them all in Gen 1 depends on if count Mew. I never had a Pokemon event come to my area and didn't want to use glitches. I caught all the other 150 though
I bought a second gameboy and caught them all for the first time a couple years ago, still have the save. Did the mew glitch only for mew.
Nice!
Little addon, it wasn't actually only English player input that made the name pikablu! I thought it was a second hand source, but I think it was actually an official pokemon sort of advertisement card summarizing the events of the movie (?) Along with a little screenshot!
There's listings for it on eBay, which is where I found out about it, I think. It's such a weird bit of trivia, why name the character if you haven't gotten the name for it yet, lol
Haha so weird!
20:17 my explanation for this: he throwed it in a box and tries to make you feel bad by hinting on its "death"
Always the prankster.
Raticate only has 1 appearance...
16:20 - i always thought tms went into the pokeball and the pokemon get brained
damn, this auto played while i was playing Dwarf Fortress and i genuinely thought you had a few hundred thousand subs and likes. Way to high quality to be dinking around in the low thousands...
On my way! 🤞🏻 thanks for watching!
Cubone can't be charmander because its tail should be lit. Or it dies
Yeah, Charmander dies and Cubone is born. Duh.
@@Trevor_NewJerusalem wtf💀
Gen 4 introduced fairy types I wanna say you made a typo cuz that happened in gen 6
Yeah flipped IV and VI when I read it.
My cousin told me about pikablu
If u want to play the gen 1 games get a modded 3ds or mod a regular one yourself there are.many tutorials online. And you can download the virtual console games for FREE which includes all gen 2 and gen 1 games and u can transfer the pokemon to pokemom bank and then to pokemon home. Id reccoemend a 3ds if u want to play them
Yeah, also want to retry the pokemon black mod as an adult
The butterfree/venonat switch is more likely because of the limitations of the gameboys display lots of Pokémon had to share more simple features(lots of unrelated gen1 Pokémon share the same eyes) and it’s just a coincidence instead of a switch imo
Could be!
Same. I think the problem is that butterfree looks alot like venonat because venomoth looks nothing like caterpie or metapod
Huh, I find the whole thing related to Lavender Town to be strange, I was 8 when I was playing Red/Blue, and I never had any of these symptoms or anything. Though the Ghost sprite still gives me the creeps after all these years. 🥶
True, I think all of it happened years after the game actually launched, still interesting!
@@VaultLoreI agree, thanks for the info you put into this, really was an interesting video.
Thanks! Thanks for watching!!
@@VaultLoreI thought Lavender Town Syndrome was just a creepypasta?
@@The_LydIt is. But there is the whole theme song one key higher in the files, which is a certified trigger for those of us with migraine attacks. I'm glad they changed it.
It may have been used in Green? I don't remember. But that song + creepy ghost town = creepypastas everywhere.
Up + B team represent!
The true Pokémon master
The recommended page has blessed me with something glorious I look forward to this video thank you
Yay! Welcome!
i would like this video... but you have all 151 likes!
on the topic of TMs, in the Indigo Disc, one of the characters talks about how the titular item, the "indigo disc" speaks, which is similar to the TM system. in the I-D case, they put it into a Computer, and it spoke to the players. I assume then, that the TMS are given with a small cd player/laptop like system, and it speaks the commands to the pokemon? or it shows them how to do it?
Thanks for watching! We’re past 151, so you can like it now :)
Haha yeah I’m sure that’s what the simple answer is, it’s just too boring for me.
37:20 that’s Gen 6 ahahahaha. Honest mistake
Haha yeah sorry, I commented a few times, I just misread “VI” as “IV”
@@VaultLore ah I see. No worries it happens.
❤️
Hi
Hello
I hate to be that guy, but this iceberg is pretty lame. There's only like 4 things per tier, and I know pretty much all of it at this point. There's so much about gen1 that's obscure that this video just didn't cover.
You don’t have to like every video, sorry this one didn’t deliver for you! Would love to hear what other topics you wish it would have covered.
This is new to me, only made a few videos at this point, but I’d rather spend more time on a few topics than 30 seconds on a bunch of random ones.
@@VaultLore
Other topics I would have included:
Beta Pokemon cut from the first game, instant text glitch/bike shop glitch, badge boost glitch, catching safari zone pokemon in regular battles, mechanics behind Missingno/Old man glitch, generation 1 battle mechanics/quirks, glitch pokemon that aren't missingno, tradeback moves with gold&silver, similar/identical cries, japanese pokemon green sprites, gameboy printer functionality with Yellow, and manipulating custom movesets with Pokemon Stadium. Also, Red & Blue may have been the first Pokemon games, but they weren't all of gen 1. Gen 1 also had Stadium and Snap. There could be some entries related to those games.
I'm sure it must feel overwhelming as a young creator to have to make a video this long, but maybe you could break a larger iceberg down into smaller chunks? I've always found tasks easier to do when they're organized like that.
:)
Might just have to make a second video at some point! Haha I’m not young, I’m just figuring this out while working a normal career. Not as much time in my day as a high school or college kid.
Kind of sounds like you should be making videos if you already know about all these topics!
@@VaultLore Perhaps I will make videos in the future, but I've got too much going on in my personal life to even tinker with video editing. One day I will start making content, when I'm fully independent. It's just a matter of when.
Good luck out there!
Oh yes the fairy type introduced in Gen 4!
I didn’t know that until I was researching! The good old days when there were only like 4 types of Pokémon 😂
Haha yea it was introduced in gen 6 :)
Oh I think I misread “IV” and “VI” oops!
@@VaultLore I totally have to reread the roman numerals like 5 times before Im sure Its right every time so I get it haha
Haha lots of Vs and Is and Xs
12:44 They do have some similarities. All Pokemon eggs are represented by a single sprite which looks identical to a Yoshi egg🥚. & once they hatch, Yoshis & Pokemon r obedient to humans.
True, so you’re saying there’s a chance :)
i remember when i was a kid there was a hole rumor about mew being under a truck
Vividly remember it
at least add music man zzzzz
No :)
