    How to screw over Morty :
    1. Have a normal-type
    2. Have it paralyzed before the fight begins
    3. Send it against Gengar
    There, now Hypnosis (and by extension Dream Eater) is useless. And since you're a normal-type, Shadow Ball is useless too.

      I think Morty's Gengar has curse in HGSS. If it does, wait till he uses it once, switch out then switch back. He won't heal and if he uses curse again he faints.

    "GameFreak seemed really intent on increasing the longevity of these games"
    Well, considering GameFreak and Pokemon thought Gold, Silver and Crystal were going to be the last games in the series, so it does makes sense for these games to be really long. That's why we have the final battle with Red at the end. It was supposed to be the final battle. Obviously these games sold really well and so we got gen 3 not long after.
    And also, the odd egg you get from the DayCare has a really high shiny chance. I can't remember the exact percentage but I personally was able to get a shiny Pichu from the egg, which I was so happy about! I was able to have a electric type in Crystal early on considering in Crystal it's really hard to get a good electric type. You can't get the Mareep line in Crystal which I can't still wrap my head around considering you can get it in the other two and the Amphrados story-line is kept in.

    • @iBenjamin1000
      @iBenjamin1000 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a really dumb theory about why mareep wasn't in crystal. gamefreak somehow knew enough about the players' habits, or looked at strategy guides, or maybe just the design of the games and their encounters, to know that mareep was a super powerful early game encounter that would stay good through the whole game. they decided it was too good, so they took it out of crystal so people couldn't rely on the same pokemon. then didn't even add in any better encounters or moves to make other pokemon better in the place of mareep. classic gamefreak : /

      Best place to go is to Ecruteak City. Wack on some repels and wait until they are down below the city. Get on your bike and go down. Keep riding until you find it. If it moves go up and down from Ecruteak until one of them is in the route south of Ecruteak. Easiest method to catch them.

      You can use emulator since wifi no longer works on ds and you worry about the battery well emulator no battery and I can use cheats to get those I am unable to get like Golem, Machamp, Gengar, Steelix and Scizzor. Really I can get it without cheating in Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald by trading with myself but ds version I cant get any. Also I like how I can go through Gen III send myself an eevee then send back an Espeon in Fire Red and Leaf Green to Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald which I can send my Hoenn Pokemon to myself to face against my trainer Red anytime which I mostlikely will never do. If I can trade with myself and battle myself in Gen I some how I can give Red in Gen I an Espeon which it will just be a glitch pokemon. Love the videos. I like the challenge each new generation new pokemon to catch so you wont be able to catch them all because of all the 900+ pokemon and the new ones they keep coming up with. So if you want to start from Gen I to catch them all and take your time and become champion I estimate it will take 8 years maybe 12 max if you include Rom hacks like Orange Islands and play through that as well it will take alot longer. For me I'm working on Yellow after Yellow it's to the Orange Islands to give myself a break and cuz it seems like fun then to Johto then Hoenn go through battle frontier Sinnoh and battle tower Unova again gonna play pokemon White and Black 2 and White 2 then the other games which if I do that and new games since I'm new to them will take so long that I basically will be 35 when I catch them all maybe at best 30. That's if I play continuously.

    In gold and silver Bill gives you an Eevee when you go to his house after meeting him for the first time, which is the best pokemon to use against Morty's Gengar due to it being unable to be attacked by ghost pokemon. The only downside is if he blocks eevee from being switched you need a non-normal type move taught to deal damage(While taking 0 damage from Gengar). I made this mistake the first time around and had to finish off his Gengar with Struggle after blowing thru Sand Attack, Growl, and Tail Whip PP.

    Just wanted to leave a comment on the Legendary Beasts. A method I used as a child, and seemingly always worked was immediately as you set them into the wild, one beast will be in each of the routes adjacent from that town. Entei is usually to the East in route 42 Suicune is usually to the South in route 37, and Raikou is usually to the West in route 38. Using Gold and Silver, I could consistently get Entei and Raikou immediately by save scumming and just chucking balls and praying. Then get Suicune in Crystal.
    (Note, Raikou and Suicune routes could be reversed. I'm struggling to remember which was where. But Entei is almost always in route 42 after leaving the tower.)

    I've always chosen Chikorita when I play Johto and I don't usually have an issue. My Bayleef does a good job of keeping it's own. It's all about the support team you build. If this wasn't a speed run, your Hoothoot could have known confusion which helps out.

Currently doing Diamond and pearl shiny hunting too. Catching them all for D/P wouldnt be too bad since the dex is 150, while Platinums is a bit expanded.
