- People claim that Pokemon Red/Blue (aka Generation 1) is too easy. Well I decide to make it a little more challenging by trying to beat the entire game with just a Magikarp. Is it possible? Watch and find out!

It is interesting that the guy that gives you the potion as a free sample of the Poke Mart, yet it doesn't sell potions. That guy is lousy at advertising.

Gen 1 sprites are hilarious yet nostalgically refreshing
I do wish Pokemon stuck to sprites to be able to distinguish itself from other RPGs, but I don't mind the 3-D models at all. I do prefer the sprites though, especially in Gen 5.
I feel like the first generation (although some, like Geodude, looks better in future games) and partly the second had cooler sprites/graphics then the later gens, which went for a more cutesy look
@@demoleramera Exactly! I feel like Pokemon got even more "kid friendly" and generic with the designs.
@@nicholastricarico2957 I think the games should go back to being 2D.
@@sherman614 unluckily that's exactly what happened, for marketing... If the games hadn't been directed to kids, we would have much more interesting pokémons instead of cute animals ready to be turned into dolls. Even some ideas, like the gender differentiation introduced in gen 4, has been given up quite a bit due to marketing reasons.
"The battle with Brock was one of the most difficult rpg battles I've ever had" Oh jrose, so young and foolish, blissfully unaware of the challenges he would do a year later.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I will
Maybe in days of boring mode
In most of the "Can you beat" videos they do that
I could see hacking yourself a Magikarp as a starter but then just letting it evolve instead of stubbornly keeping it a Magikarp. I imagine it would feel so good seeing it finally evolve.
Thought this would be a 45 minute video of the word "NO."
it was
Ghost Pokemon=No
no it 44 lol
NEW JUSTIN Y RIGHT HERE
"No you can't do that"
That 4 minuet complicated explanation on how to level up magicarp was truly amazing. I could feel his pain.
Actually, you COULD beat it if you had a Magikarp with Dragon Rage. You could've got one if you were one of the 20 winners of the Celadon University Hyper Test in 1998.
Easy work
Yeah, I say he should do it. Magickarp take 2 run.
With Dragon Rage, an obvious Dragon Type movie with 10 PP, this should make some earlier fights much easier too.
Doing 40 damage to the target while ignoring weaknesses and resistances will make some battles much easier.
I'm sure Brock would have gone down much faster with Dragon Rage.
He would need to save lots of ethers, PP ups.
That, and there was a an event in Gen 2 where you could get a Egg containing a Magikarp knowing Bubble. Hatching it then trading it to Gen 1 via Time Capsule would do the trick.
VioletHelianthus I think that wouldn't work because it's not possible to trade pokémon back in time when they know moves that they learn only in the II Gen.
*somebody using x items for the first time in pokemon history*
U rite
If you watch speedruns of Pokemon, they're EXTREMELY useful. Once I saw how completely busted they are, I started using them in my own playthroughs. They're essentially a stat boost move, but they don't take up one of your 4 slots... that's just too good.
Been playin since 1996? Since pokemon red, still have never used a X item, i used to sell em for cash to get poke balls n potions...
Have you forgotten about a certain N E C R O Z M A?
X items are strong in the newer games, they give +2 stats instead of +1 which they use to.
I will never look at an oddish the same way again
wow thats so true
discorded harmony they used to just be fun little things to fry to a crisp with ember...
Hah, ditto! ;)
This video made me realize two things
1.) Magikarps are worse than I thought and I freaking hate them.
2.) There is so much more to pokemon battling than I ever cared to pay attention to. The thought of waiting for an opponent to run out of PP to use struggle and damage itself, while wouldn't work in red & blue is still something that wouldn't have ever crossed my mind.
" What are the chances the viewers have N64, Pokemon Stadium, controller, transfer tool, and the will to do this run?"
*Looks into my old stuff* Well, guess I must take on your challenge good sir.
Nine months later. Did you beat brock yet?
It's been three years
TFW you're not sure if it's you or the Magikarp who is struggling.

Compared to Brock, it's very good
I love how the Magikarp is able to do a lot more damage to itself through confusion than to an enemy.
for the ones that are questioning how the magikarp is not evolving, it's not a mod nor a glitch, you just press B when magikarp tries to evolve.
Probability of the onix failing screech 5 times in a row is about 0.0076%

ah, i see you ended up at the bottom of the youtube rabbit hole as me

I just wanted to let you know, its my current bedtime routine to put one of your playlists on, pick a video, put my headphones in, and fall asleep to it. Your voice is nice, the videos are long, and theres no screaming or upsetting noises. Overall, its just really relaxing to listen to and has helped my insomnia a lot. I love all these videos and feel like I can recite them by heart at this point. Thank you for making the content you do! And sorry if this is a weird comment haha
I try to do a similar thing but I laugh out loud to often to actually fall asleep. The struggle is real.
I relized 1 minute after watching this you played for 11 hours and didn't know ghastly wasn't gonna end the run
The thing is: struggle hits ghost types after gen 1. after... I found some people that don't know this, had struggle been able to hit ghastly, this could have been possible.

I thought you were going to be relieved when you finally let it evolve to Gyarados-
But you kept it a magikarp. You monster.
Who do you think you're fooling. Magikarp is all that we need. (barring battles against ghost-types). Magikarp is absolute S+ God Tier. Magikarp is love, Magikarp is life.

well the title does say JUST a migikarp...meaning he obviously wasnt gonna evolve it...
I think that would be cheating
@@jacobredfield1386 ha he basically has magic in there name
He did not get this idea from Pikasprey. Jrose did a glitched Magikarp run of Pokémon Red over a year ago, this is just an extension of that idea.
Plus, who hasn't wondered about beating Pokémon with only a Magikarp, or some other very weak Pokémon?
Lastly, glad to see you back! :-)
I'm pretty sure the idea of only using Magikarp has been around since Gen 1 itself
Rattatatatatatata
Type in: soft lock picking magikarp in the search bar
Who said he got it from his doppelganger anyway?
who cares? he did it, thats awesome
When I first saw this vid was 45 minutes long I was laughing at the people in the comments who watched the entire thing....now here I am 45 minutes through. This is an absolutely brilliant video
Oh my god, this dude played on actual hardware. You’re insane dude.
Here is a super fun idea for a Magikarp-challenge.
Use the magikarp to beat gen 2 with tackle and typeless struggle. Not *a* Magikarp. *THE* Magikarp. Trade over the lv45 Magikarp from your gen 1 game and use that.
It will be over-leveled, but it also won't obey you. Most of the time it will skip turns or fall asleep. Have fun!
this is super creative! +1!
You monster! 🤣
You're a terrible human being for suggesting this...
Ow, nice one! Hope he'll do this lol
This would be impossible because there is a gym leader and elite 4 member who use ghost type pokemon
Now I understand why it took so long for you to upload a video. I highly respect that decision.

Pretty sure you can finish the run with ease using just Garados.
Yea, i did a run with just Gyrados back in the day, that being said any electric fight is a nightmare, you gotta kill them in one hit and somehow not die in one hit yourself - took a ton of saves, but he definitely has the ability.
I did one with only venonat :)

in gen one, you can still miss with 100% accuracy. that speaks for itself
@@petkofuchalski9809 If you think about it, it makes sense.
It may be a move with a 100% accuracy but the pokemon you are facing will try to dogde it.The only way to get a truly 100% hit rate would be if the pokemon you are facing either does not try to dodge it or is too slow.
@@JoahTheThread5ive it may make sense but i hate it when the game strait up lies to me.
this is the only RPG that has problems like that.
@@petkofuchalski9809 this is at least sometimes due to a glitch called the 1/256 glitch, where things that are supposed to have 100% accuracy (and also pokeballs, including the master ball), have a 1 out of 256 chance of missing/failing capture

Cheese poofs8 he meant even after realizing he can’t continue the game with just a Magikarp, he should have let it evolve and finish the rest of the game for fun.
What Steven said. There was nothing he could do to compete the Challenge. Magikarp deserved to finish his dream of League glory.

Wow this guy spent 2 hours just trying to get past Victreebell after he realized that he couldn't even beat the game....damn dude! Honestly impressed with your dedication.

This was legendary. The fact you did your best to take it as far as you could is quite the feat on it's own.

Omg
forgive my ignorance, but why didn't he teach magikarp surf or some other hm(or tm) to be able to beat ghastly?
because he cant learn any hm or tm^^
thank you! didn't know that
San in heart gold and soul silver, not sure if it is in gold and silver, in the radio tower in goldenrod or whatever it’s called you take a quiz and one of the questions is if magikarp can learn HM or TM moves. Until that point, mind that I was 8 years old when HGSS came out, I never new that magikarp couldn’t learn HM and TM moves.

Good job you've started a trend in the PokeYT community(specifically well-researched insane challenge runs)
Nice dedication man, playing this 2 times till the onix-fight just for us
Technically it is possible to beat the game with Magikarp if you were one of the 20 people to obtain the university Magikarp Japan gave out as an event back in 98'. Which means you could have dragon rage on the Magikarp allowing you to defeat the ghost Pokemon. I'd gameshark the move on and continue the video and just mention that it is possible under those circumstances.
TehRadBrad true but still there is only 20 of the magikarp but at least you typed the real fact thanks
jfc thats so obscure i- wow kudos to you lol
The fact that the event Magikarp was distributed at all should mean it's within reason to allow a starting Magikarp with the move Dragon Rage cheated on (but in place of Splash, which the University Magikarp lacks).
I think the challenge would be so much easier with dragon rage instead of splash
I was litterly Just about to say this lol
