So, I recently read a biographical manga for Satoshi Tajiri. Apparently the trading was meant to be kind of a cute thing where everyone's unique pokemon would travel and journey across people and sort of be its own identity and story, part of why you can't change the nicknames.
Lmao that's so japanese it hurts but yet also cool
1:52 i mean yeah. thats exactly how it should work. you have a pokemon that you can investigate and study to complete the dex entry. when you're done it doesn't matter what is happening to the pokemon.
You're gaining and writing down info about a Pokémon when you obtain it, that info wouldn't just magically erase itself when you no longer own that Pokémon/evolution stage. It's already hard enough to fully complete a pokedex, imagine if they required owning every Pokémon at the same time...
I was worried I was the only person thinking this! Thanks to you and o7! I enjoyed the video, but that one part confused me.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The dex counts the number of entries you have, not how many you have at the time. idk how this guy got confused, but I like his determination to have a living dex.
Was gonna say... this is literally explained in the game. Off of this, theres plenty initiative to trade rare pokemon because you can just trade back. Its gotta catch em all, not keep em all lol
it doesn’t make sense for “catch them all”
I mean, the Pokédex is not "flawed". No one ever says that you need to "have 'em all". You just need to collect their data, which requires owning them at some point. But once you collect the data, it wouldn't make sense for that data to be lost once you get rid of the Pokémon.
Yeah, I was shaking my head through that part. They avoided a poor design decision that this person apparently would have preferred. Nothing's stopping them from keeping a list of all the Pokémon they have and making sure they actually have them all at once. Good luck with evolutions.
Yeah, that was weird, even as a kid I understood that and was thankful for it.
@@michealcox7236 Pokémon Stadium has "Caught" and "Owned". So if I "own" currently a Venusaur, the game knows I already "caught" a Bulbasaur (starter) and Ivysaur (evolved Bulba). It helps with the Living Dex because I used Stadium's boxes as storing when resetting my game.
You’re obviously not getting the point of the challenge. It Is not about playing the game as normal. It’s a living Dex
@@samanthaharris5875 no, they get the point of the challenge, they just didn't like lyra's explanation that implied the living dex is the way the pokedex *should* work.
Got this on my recommended and I have to say this deserves A LOT more views than this... Subscribed!
I appreciate it! I will get more subs by making more quality videos, so I'm working on that :')
Wow, as a “technically-inclined” person myself (have worked with databases, coded my own projects) I’ve got to say I really appreciate the amount of effort that went into this project. Well done, you’ve earned a subscriber 💖
One thing you didn't mention, which you probably figured out while doing it, is catching duplicates on your main game, to use as trade fodder. If you're going for a living dex, you don't want to be trading away your pokemon unless doing so would evolve them, and even then you'll want the evolved one back without losing another important part of your system.
1:07 this joke made me burst out laughing, thanks so much for making my day, I wasn’t feeling great today haha
i sense this will blow up, good luck on your yt journey bro!! subbed!
Thank you! I just finished editing the Gen2 video, so hopefully your sub will be worth it!
@@Lyra >40k+ subs
fuckin called it lol
0:30 This isn't actually an issue if you have Pokémon Stadium. If you beat the Gym Leader Castle, it gives you one of the Unique Save File Pokémon: The Starters, the Hitmons, Eevee, the Fossils, etc. So you only need to run a gauntlet once, then keep fighting the Rival in that game rather than restarting one of your save files.
The problem is that these gifts are random.
Personally, I usually just use glitches to obtain the unobtainable Pokemon when playing Gen 1 (See the "Long-Range Trainer" Glitch or the "Mew" Glitch for more details) but this really lays out how much work it would take just to complete the first Pokedex! Now with 8 Gens (Gen 9 coming out later of the time of this comment), If you want a living pokedex, You're gonna have to do a Total of I don't know how many save files but a lot!
I also think there is a Reddit Subreddit where the Challenge is to complete the Pokedex as much as possible before battling the gym and progressing forward. (I can't remember the name right now)
Proffesor Oak challenge, I believe
I think I may perhaps play a new save of Pokemon Red to try and glitch myself into getting a Mew! I realized I had already missed my chance in Blue once I did a little research about the glitch. At least I can still get a MissingNo!
@@diamondmario64 You may still be able to get Mew even if you have missed your chance using the traditional Trainer Fly method. Look into the Ditto glitch.
i love this tool obsession. i've never heard of someone into their interest in such a way, i'm intrigued af
Good choice picking Blue. Porygon is much cheaper in the Game Corner, so saves a fair bit of time getting the coins required. Nice video, by the way.
Meanwhile I'm playing Pokemon Yellow
That's hardest for pokedex completion @@NathanBoehm
subscribing because this amount of work should, nay MUST be compensated
Massive respect! I like planning, outlining and lists! Not a programmer, but an accountant, I can still appreciate the effort for the 'fun' of it!!! I might try my hand at a living dex, but with me being a perfectionist, I would go a step further by having each pokemon at level 100 with the best moveset possible. Call it overkill, but when I love something, I really mean it.
Looking forward to how you approach this through the series!
Amazing content! This is something I've been looking for for a long time!
I have clicked the bell to get notifications of your videos. Quality stuff here! Love that you found it fun to create your website which I’m happy to look through. Thanks for including in the description.
This is a fantastic video and deserves much more views! Keep up the great work
Awesome content dude. I am going to go binge all your videos now
Oh my gosh you are exactly my kind of person! I've been wanting to do a challenge like this for years now. A living dex for each generation, where each Pokémon is caught exclusively in that generation. I made a whole spreadsheet with each generation, and which games I'd play to catch each Pokémon but this is way better organized than my haphazard lists. I can't wait to see how you approach gen 2 not having stuff like the legendary birds or fossils in them.
I like your process. Great video. Excited to see it play out
Awesome channel! I started learning web development on September 7th and I was so happy the role pokemon helped me in understanding objects, data modeling, making fetch request and working with JSON data. The pokemon Api is so lit.
been following poketubers for some time and i feel like you've TOTALLY found a much-needed niche to fill. keep it coming dude!
Instantly fell in love with your content,you are really good at what you do
I discovered this channel yesterday when it had less than 5 k subs, and it's gained about 4k since then!! Wow good job man you deserve it
"You're forced to play through both versions..." Or, you know, have friends.
Not everyone has the convenience of having friends.
IKR
Thats the entire point of the link cable
This comment is mega stupid. There is literally no question whatsoever that they release multiple versions to get people to buy and play both. That is an absolute fact. Secondly, what about the MANY people who do have friends, but their friends don't play Pokemon? This was just a dumbass comment.
@@hejenssvsg8468 this only nowdays. We are talking about the OLD pokemon games, we all know how greedy TPC and GF became today but at that time they heavily advertised the link cable as a huge selling point. The very concept of a multiplayer turn-based rpg was revolutionary so it was indeed built with the idea of playing with frens
@@akiradkcn you have a point but the times are not like before where you NEED to have friends who play pokemon as you and are as dedicated as you to have the pokemon you need to be traded. That's the point in the whole video. I doubt if you want to do this challenge you'd be able to find a person who is willing to give their time to do the challenge as you and are willing to trade the pokemons, including legends and exclusive, to you.
Speaking of, this video isn't JUST to complete the dex. He is doing the living dex challenge. If its just the normal dex sure, we'll go with that. I still doubt you'd be able to find someone who is even still playing the games in your area immediately. Since it's difficult now to do such, why not just play both versions? Is it the end of the world if he would choose that rather than doing the intended procedure?)
Man I randomly stumbled across your channel and I instantly subscribed. Keep up the good and informative work 👍🏻
Keep up man, great job !
Really enjoyed watching! :)
I've literally started this exact playthrough 2 days ago and then this pops up on my recommendations. Time to binge your videos for tips
Some part of me feels like this is an optimizable problem; maybe one could simulate a thousand ways to play Pokemon and find the best one. At the same time, your website is beautiful and probably more useful👍 great job!!
Amazing concept of videos, consider me hooked hahha i know what i will be watching while working today
I mean, the most important unique pokemon (choice only like the fossils, starters, eons and the such) are actually available through Pokemon Stadium, i think this is a very legit way to get the Hitmon you missed, an extra Eevee and etc because after all Stadium is a gen 1 game...
And i think is easier to win them via the gym leader castle than just resetting your other pokemon game over and over.
Also, as a matter of fact, having a friend of yours to help you by playing the other one version makes things super easy and much less time consuming... With so many people spending their free time doing new runs of their old pokemon games it shouldn't be so difficult to find someone to help you catching the Vulpix that doesn't appear on your cartridge
Loved the idea!
Just found the channel. Big fan! Keep up the content!!
That love for articuno
You, sire, earned a subscriber.
One of my proudest video game moments was getting the Living Dex in FireRed last year. All 150 of them. I'm thinking of framing the picture I took of the Kanto Dex Diploma I got.
Congrats!
Would you say the website in this video also works in gen 3? I'm thinking about doing one, but I really don't like gen 1 lol
we did this challenge on our own with my little sister few years ago during the Christmas break. it was great! never considered catch rates or finding common pokemons while looking for the rare ones, just bruteforcing it (pikachu from the Forest etc).
I used to own Red version but my favorite was Squirtle as well!
Loved this video
Got my subscribe mate, out of lots of trash channels out there with reup and cheap entertainment contents this channel is the gem.
I just love people with brain!!!!
I just found this video and I love everything about this. I want to do this same thing for all the other Pokemon games available 😅
Lol. Nice work man!!
I love this content!!
Grandma's who think the only Pokemon was Pikachu: Impossible
You've won a subscriber!
I'll probably follow your guides in the future, I found my old cartridges, cleaned them a bit and am now waiting for the replacement batteries and stickers to arrive, completing these games would be a great nostalgia journey
brb gonna subscribe and binge this entire channel
commenting for the algorithm because this is a really well done video that popped up recommended for me
are you doing this for every gen?
id love to witness this journey
Aaaaaaaaaaand I'm officially binge watching your ENTIRE channel. Why did you make me do this??? 😭😭😭
Massive respect for getting a living pokedex, doubly so in Gen 1.
TH-cam started recommending this. Added a like and a sub ;)
I am in love how do you combine devs and Pokémon. Charming
If you have a cartridge, Pokémon stadium makes this ALOT easier
Fun video!
I don’t know who you are. I don’t know where you came from. All I know is that you made a website. And you popped up in my recommended last night. This is the type of content I did not know I needed. SUBSCRIBED.
Smartest thing to do is take advantage of the daycare, save all rare candies and use the exp share/all
I like it how you've planned and strategised this challenge.
I used to have a complete livingdex from Yellow and Crystal stored in Pokémon Bank. Then I deleted them as an accident. Maybe with your guide here I can get them back easier.
I'm not just working on a living pokedex, I'm working on a living pokedex with both genders, so for each of the genders from the first two generations, one of them can come from RBY and GSC.
We will watch your career with great interest!
Speaking about the 1st gen, it would be great a video about how to do to get the max stats in some Pokemon (I think the same method can be of help for all the Pokemon training) talking about the EV's, what Pokemons are needed to confront to get the Attack EV's, Defense, Special, etc. It's a thing that always got stick in my mind, how would had to do to obtain all that, how to prepare a Pokemon for the competitive tournaments.
By the way, great content. I like hear talking about the details of these games, I like to see this kind of retrospectives. Great work.
In gen 1 (Red, Blue and Yellow) you get ev's by KOing pokemon.
Most people just grind elite four.
It's simple but mind-numbing.
Neat stuff! Really interesting takes on living dexs, and a great guide itself to boot! Hope to see more soon.
Amazing
Love the vid so far by the way if u did cath all pokemon and then evolved them in an area uts known as a professor oak challenge.
your website is so cool.
Im team Blue as well. I played the games on a GBC, where the graphics are tinted. blue is much easier on the eyes than red lol.
you can change the tint when you boot up the game. You can even make it brown or yellow or green.
im still confused why you are saying you need to catch 3 Dratini since its not a version exclusive.
Because he's trying to have in his box one of each pokemon, not just have the Pokedex filled out
I had a living dex in gen 6, even getting all the GameStop event Pokemon. The only one I was missing was magearna
But then my pokebank got corrupted some how and I lost then all
Heartbreaking
Magearna was gen 7, so you had a complete living dex, even if it sadly got lost
Best content ever
Is there a reason you chose not to make a side game out of Gold or Silver? You could use Gen 2 breeding and the Time Machine tradebacks to cut back on the number of required repeat playthroughs.
I understand that you had fun to create the website and database (I do that for fun too for an other monster catching game called Temtem) however, I'm pretty sure you could just use some Pokemon API, although it contains a lot of information not needed (gen 2 to X) with mega evolutions and stuff like that.
Neat! I've had my old Game Boy Color sitting on my desk for a while, taunting me to start a fresh game for the first time in probably a decade. Now you tempt me with this idea of getting a complete living pokedex. How dare you! The question is if I can find and afford a second Game Boy, copy of red, and cable for not too much money...
Get a monster brain or any back up device for the gameboy
Oh man, my 2015 memories of getting a gen 1 living dex are coming right back.
I did many if not all the things in this video, however with some… additional effort put in.
On the 3DS eShop versions of gen 1, they had added support for the ability to transfer into the Pokémon bank, then into Sun/Moon at the time.
One neat feature is it has a little game boy symbol and a blurb telling you where came from with something along the lines of “Travelled across space and time from the Kanto region”. Great right?
Except I wanted my gen 1 Pokémon to also stay in my gen 1 games… so I traded them into gen 2, cloned them and put them into the transport box (Box 1) and sent my first batch into the bank.
My OCD couldn’t handle what the blurb says about a gen 1 Pokémon if you transport it from gen 2…
“Travelled through space and time from the **JOHTO** region”.
…
So the process became;
Trade gen 1 mon (Main 3DS) into gen 2 (2nd 3DS)
Close gen 1 on main 3DS, load gen 2
Catch trade fodder mon (main 3DS)(low lvl Pidgey)
Trade gen 1 mon (2nd 3DS) to gen 2 (main 3DS)
Clone gen 1 mon
Reverse this process but capturing trade fodder in the other game to enable the trades to happen.
Put mon in transport box, transfer into bank
Repeat until all mon are done.
Was this a needlessly complicated, time consuming process just to have a little piece of text say Kanto instead of Johto?
Yes!
Do I regret it?
No (it helped that I was marathoning Game of Thrones at the time).
How long did it take me just to do all that trading, cloning, trade fodder capturing, more trading AND bank transferring?
44 hours.
Hyper fixation is a weird thing sometimes but I got it done.
I also cloned and transferred all of gen 2 up into the bank but I didn’t have to trade them as they were actually from
Johto and it made me REEEEEE free when viewing them in Sun/Moon.
Even if I’m not doing a Living PokéDex run, this website is really useful for keeping all the information of where to capture Pokémon in a convenient website.
Really great video idea! Great channel as well! My first video was the Gen 1 weird capturing mechanics, and i really enjoyed it, so much that i'm watching the other videos XD
I loved this idea, can you give me a emulator that i can trade Pokémon so i can do this myself, seems like an awesome challenge!
I thought you were just going to edit the WRAM in a hex editor so that you have a complete pokedex.
Well, the channel name make sense now
I do that for Gen 3 about 10 years ago
I'm so glad they've made getting a living dex a hell of a lot easier now. I completed my living dex in Legends Arceus today and I didn't have to use a single online feature. It's relatively easy in fact
But in gen 1, the only way to get mew is through a glitch or through trading with those special cartridges that had boxes full of mews. is that the case here?
What would be perfect if you could add a tab called "repel trick catch chance" to your website, where it lists all the rarer pokemon you can catch with the repel trick (e.g. Dugtrio in Diglett's cave, or Dewgong in Seafoam Islands)
You don't have eggs, but on the plus side you have missigno and a potential of infinite master ball and rare candy.
I completed my living dex in BDSP minus the unreleased legendaries of celebi and deoxys
I just got this video recommended to me. If you're interested, i've got an Excel table sheet i've filled out by hand with all the catch locations (according to bulbapedia) up to gen 5 or 6 i think. It might save you some time in future projects
Could make that available to me (or all of us) as well please? :)
My guy really just wrote his own Pokedex for this.
>it is to make m
>it is to incentivize trading
Instantly subscribed
A bit late but one tip I have: Immediately start your "side game" and trade your starter to the "main game", that way you have a stronger team in the main game, get more xp for a pokemon that has to level quite a bit (something that can also be done for others) and can trade it back to have a strong pokemon for the longest side game run that obeys unlike others.
High quality video
I like how you pointed out the actual difference between completing the pokedex as just having all the data as opposed to actually having all the pokemon and really giving the true meaning more of "gotta catch em all".
Absolutely love your channel! I subscribed and liked all your videos. I love following guides and your website is just perfect for this. Would love it if you made a guide for Every generations, would just be perfect! Keep up the good work! I'm about to start my living dex on Red!😉
I'm playing a Gen 1 Living Dex right now, I have a tip for y'all; save up on money from the very beginning and then exchange it for coins in the Game Corner to buy a Dratini. Dragonair evolves at a whopping Level 55. You can catch Dratinis later in the Safari Zone, but you need to get a Dratini ASAP and naturally level it up as you play through the game. Also, there are 13 Rare Candies in Pokémon Red, so grind your Dragonair until Level 43 and then use all the rare candies on it.
hopefully the algorithm gets ahold of this one
One day, I want to try playing a Randomizer of a Pokemon game, except instead of doing a Nuzlocke like most people do, I try to catch every single Pokemon in the Pokedex. I'm sure it would be theoretically possible.
I think the pokemon randomizer tool most people use has a "catch em all" setting where it guarantees all pokemon are obtainable in some way
Thank goodness for breeding later Pokemon games.
there's a glitch at the start where you can get the three starter pokemons in a same save file
you just made me enjoy a powerpoint :D thats a first
I haven't checked out the website yet, nor do I know much about html/coding, (though I am learning) so I do not know how feasible implementation would even be, but:
Theoretically, could you not take into account things like the catch rate of each pokemon, the pokeball type available at each stage, the payout each trainer battle gives, the moveset of every pokemon available at every stage (for status moves and lowering health), to determine the most efficient way to actually *catch* the pokemon as well? I suppose it doesn't necessarily matter once you get into an encounter with the pokemon in question, whether or not you chuck 500 pokeballs or put it to sleep it then chuck an ultra ball, because you've still captured it, but I just think it's odd how much planning was put into efficiently encountering, without doing the same for efficiently catching in the least amount of steps. (Like, actions, not walking.)
Though, I want to say, I don't mean any of this as a critique or to say that what you already have done isn't in and of itself, extremely cool, this is a really great amount of planning and thought put into this already! I was just thinking of this as a logical puzzle, a "reach goal in minimum steps/time" kind of thought process.
How come you didn’t add yellow version? It would make it so you only have to reset to get starters at most 2 times?
Bruh, don't restart (9 factorial)factorial times. It's not worth it, and the heat death of the universe will stop you pretty early on if you and your game manage to survive that long.
Wow, I've been kind of working on something like this over the past several years. Mostly as a collective Pokédex that accounts for all Pokémon caught across all games I have, but with location and evolution information included as well. Nice to know there are other data nerds out there too!
oh i love this so much you are so dedicated making a whole website wow!!
i accidentally did this challenge the first time i played Red on emulator lol
Unless you're strongly opposed to the gen 2 duplication glitch then...
You could trade your starters or unique pkmn to a gen 2 game, duplicate them and trade them back to your gen 1 game. This way instead of playing through the game 9 times for the starters you can play through 3 times, or 1 time if you're playing pkmn yellow. Eevee can also be duplicated. For fossils and fighting dojo pkmn you can just make a different choice in two different gen 1 games. This is also assuming you're already relying on trading between games to store the pkmn youre collecting in between your proposed 9 play throughs. I also recommend and favor the duplication option if you also care about trying to get pkmn with high IVs. This way you can soft reset until you get a starter/unique pkmn with good stats and duplicate it rather than try your luck multiple times trying to find and obtain the same pkmn with high IV stats.
Personally I'm storing pkmn in yellow and crystal. Resetting red, blue, gold, and silver as need be, and for fun. Or as an attempt to make the level grinding more fun. In that I'll restart one of the aforementioned games and then trade over low level pkmn that need to be leveled up and play through the newly reset game with them. Plus they then get more experience per battle, making the grind easier.
