    Big thanks to Khimyra for sponsoring the video, and especially for giving me so much freedom in doing so! I've never had a sponsor flat out tell me to just do whatever I want with my script before, so that was fun!
    I'm not obligated to link anything, but they helped me out and the shirts are good so I'm happy to. If you were interested in anything in the Khimyra ad, here's the link to their site! Use the code "MahDryBread" at checkout so that they know who sent you!: khimyra.com
    And for those who really weren't into the ad, thanks for your patience. Life is expensive, especially during a pandemic. I have a lot of people who I care about very much that depend on my income. As the prices of everything goes up and the view counts go down, the extra money helps keep everyone safe. I still refuse to take sponsorships from anyone who won't let me talk to you in my own words, so don't go worrying about me being greedy and loading these with sponsorships from just whoever.
    Have a nice day!

    Splash is an amazing move. Why would a pokemon like Water Onix or Milotic be able to learn it if it sucked? By this logic, Hoppip is also good.

    The sponsor part was great! And good on you for keeping your integrity with what you accept and don't. We get that it's income for the content creator, so it's understandable that some people just take whatever. But the fact that you want to genuinely support the product before shilling it to us shows that you care about your fan base and actual content too.

  • @fla5h83
    @fla5h83 3 ปีที่แล้ว +142

    Suggestion for a run. You have to use every TM as soon as you get it. Would involve some strategy on gym order and when to pick up certain TMs. To make this work you would probably have to use Mew, so that could be fun right?

    • @dakotashroom5401

      He would have to catch Pokémon just to learn a TM. He would then have to forget useful moves to learn a TM.
      It should also be noted that he can't learn a TM then release the Pokémon.
      Mew isn't required.

    The splash grind is real. That's why I think it would be okay to hack in some rare candies to be able to get to the first attacking move. If that's not okay with most people then I think it's okay to hack in potions so you don't have to worry about going back to the Pokemon Center this way you can get these challenges out faster and is less grinding for you

    With all the Accuracy Problems in this run, you probably should have used Arieal Ace, at least for some fights before switching to Return. It would have been stronger to use Arieal Ace for the Grass Gym too. Since Super Effective+STAB would do more damage against the Grass Types than just 102 power Returns

    I hope he names it Magikarp 'cause that'd be hilarious. I think he can win, but Hoppip's lackluster stats and poor movepool are probably gonna necessitate some powder shenanigans and creative strats to over come threats that resist grass and normal moves especially in a gen before eviolite. Blaine might actually be a challenge for once. RNGesus be with you.

    Aerial ace has a 90 base power after stab plus it always hits. For Agatha you would cut out a lot of issues because you can actually hit her and for the rest of the fights you would not really miss much power compared to Return being around 100 base power.

    The ad was great, and not a bother at all. I'm glad to see sponsors reach out to you who want to let you *MAKE* an ad, not just read one. Keep on keepin' on, our Driest of Breads.

    I'm once again asking for you to do Pokemon Red with only a Porygon. I never got to use it in Red, because the 9999 coin cost, so I'd really enjoy seeing it used like this.

      You never thought to just grind money out of the elite 4 and then just buy the coins? You don't have to gamble to get it.

    When you’re grinding in victory Road like that you should bring a Pokémon that knows dig so you don’t have to walk back to heal, just walk back to the cave

      @@leannehetherington2164 yes. I double checked. It's the northern edge of One Island, if you line it up right (and don't change Areas) you have 4 battles. A double battle, two Karate Kings, and a female trainer. I rarely fight the fifth one because she spawns too far north but I believe all 5 use fighting types exclusively.

    I was actually pleasantly surprised with the ad. I've checked out video sponsors before and I'm usually disappointed with the product or the price, but these guys seem good. I'm especially that they gave you so much freedom and actually liked your content. I was already understanding and okay with ads, but if they're like this I'll gladly welcome them and check them out.
    I was curious if you'd be down to do a pokemon evolution randomizer in any gen. I saw a few other streamers do it and it seemed like a lot of fun and would probably be a quicker one too.

    Watching this one gave me so much anxiety! Props to you for keeping at it! This kind of stuff can really mess with your mental health trying to reach deadlines. But this was an amazing video as usual and I like at the end that you enjoyed having some interesting fights. I like that you look on the positive in your videos rather than dwelling on the negative.
    Anyways. Thanks for this video and all your other Pokémon challenges!
