@@NintendoViola He probably did it that way because when you have a Pokémon that's ready to evolve, it'll gain more EXP than usual so long as you keep it from evolving, making for quick and easy level-ups. Basically giving it the same EXP boost that a Pokémon you got in a trade would get. That, and fully evolved Pokémon need more EXP to gain a level.

I’m not gonna lie, i didn’t even know there was star requirements to reach the next area. When I first started playing I just had so much fun exploring that I was like star rank 4 before even taking on kleavor
For the sake of arguing the Chatot for "required catches," you could have done that with the shiny Ponyta instead which would give you Rapidash too. I'm not sure if that would have been enough to eliminate the need for Geodude or Rhydon though.
@@justinr.507 yeah it doesn’t matter anyways. We discussed a minimum capture speedrun in the discord after this video was posted and it’s confirmed that the 3 optionals are absolutely required to finish the game. As for how fast this can be completed, that’s unknown right now but I might try a speed run of it very soon because it sounds interesting. 😅
I think that chatot quest, the stunky camp quest, the spirtomb and the chimchar quests are the only ones that don't get triggered by catches? Does the Alola Vulpix not activate if you don't have a regular vulpix? Cause that's a gift pokemon like your starter so it wouldn't have counted as a catch either but it would have been late into the game. Spirtomb would have also taken awhile however because you can't really complete it until you get braviary.
For the number caught on the research page you can just trade the same one back and forth and it will count as catching a new one on the research page. I wonder how much that would have affected the challenge if you had done that.
I found it interesting that another Poketuber did something similar, but he only counted how many balls he used on Pokemon. To him it's totally fine to evolve Pokemon to get more dex entries. And yes, he only caught Geodude and Ryhorn for his challenge. Afterhe beat the game, he only used a whopping 13 balls in the whole game, including all forced catches like the starters and the origin ball. As a result, I'm fairly sure that Chatot is totally not necessary. You should be able to get enough research points with Geodude and Rhyhorn.
I love this game so much. I still play it constantly. I've given myself the goal of perfecting the pokedex and to obtain a shiny living dex. On the side, I'm trying to get an alpha living dex too.
I would love to see this as a speedrun category. It's a huge ask since it'd be such a long category but I think with some optimizations (like seeking out the non-mandatory catches earlier in order to pre-complete research tasks), it'd be doable in under 15h.
I remember my first time playing this game... I spent so much time catching as many Pokémon in the first 2 Areas before I progressed anywhere else lol I jumped from "No Star" Rank to nearly 4~5 Stars before the Ursaluna Boss fight.
You can actually get all the required stars before ever even talking to Mai I’m pretty sure, I would know, since I’m doing a challenge to complete every single dex entry I can before kleavor
Next challenge video idea: completing all the stickers in Pokémon Home. I like this one, because it requires you to connect with a whole lot of games, including FireRed and LeafGreen to get the original Venusaur, Blastoise and Charizard.
27:25 John Stone classic right there lol. Tell an awkward joke, start explaining it, realize that's only going to make things worse, abruptly cut back to the script. Obviously, I've been subscribed for awhile.
It was super interesting to see you break it all down and factor in which mons gave the most research points. 3 Pokemon is definitly a lot less than I thought you'd need. Great video!
Yesss I love ! Great job as always! Would you do a PMD explorers of sky completion video? How fast can you cry in that game lmao nah: Maybe like how fast it takes to get to the highest rank? I don’t know if you ever wanted to do spin offs?
18:45 If you caught an alpha Duskull, you could have gotten an extra research task once it evolved into Dusknoir EDIT: Nevermind I just got to the point in the video where you mentioned random alphas don't spawn unless the noble of that area is defeated. F
9:40 Hearing you mention how easy that noble is, while knowing it was the only noble that made me fail was... Ouch, hah, guess I just really got unlucky or had a bad day then to mess it up that bad ^^'
A detail that I think has gone unmentioned in these pla videos is that having a wild pokemon use certain moves on you also counts for the "Seen it use x move" tasks. You can speed up the research considerably by battling Pokemon of the same species so you get more chances to see it use the required moves :)
Since it doesn't need to be a mirror match, that really helps for weaker Pokemon. But when you start getting stronger than the wild ones, you start killing them too fast for it to really help. Well, except for Magikarp. Not a good option for this challenge, but in a normal or completion playthrough, facing a horde of Magikarp using your own will definitely help with seeing Splash enough times.
@@Kahadi That's true. I guess I just find it odd that wrt to those challenges he always says "you have to use x move 40 times" when that's not 100% true - idk if he's ever mentioned that wild Pokemon's moves also count...
Here's an idea, can you complete the Pokedex right at the start? Now that Pokemon home is compatible can you send every Pokemon needed into Legends Arceus and professor laventon be surprised at the start?
@@wolfetteplays8894 I transferred over every Pokemon from my main switch account and made a second one, found out how to transfer from one profile to another and got it all filled up. Legendary to.
@@XylonVermilion I think you two are talking about two different things - you can send your pokemon over to a new arceus game and get them all registered in your pokedex, but in order to trigger the professor’s response you have to get all the research levels up to level 10, which requires more than just catching the pokemon.
Are we witnessing the birth of LoA's low% routes? Also, something about the last two optional catches being geodude and rhyhorn gets a snicker out of me. You can rely on the gen 1 rock walls to get the job done (even if gen 1 mechanics murdered Golem).
This video and the many speedruns of this game I saw on GDQ will really help me make a plan to complete the game as quickly as possible with the minimum amount of catchies so I can do all the catches in post-game and not have to spend a full year playing this game. Don't get me wrong, this is a nice game... I just haven't gotten past the first mission yet. :(
i love the cruelty of the fact that there are four gift pokemon in this game, but three of them don't matter since alolan vulpix is in the icelands where you don't need to get any more research points and the other two starters are post game.
You seem like the type of person to collect all botw korok seeds. 🤔 Scrolled through your videos and half expected to find a video on the subject, though I guess it makes sense as you're an exclusively pokemon channel. (Or so far, at least 😉)
People die there intentionally to see who gets their satchel. The only way to die there is to hop on Braviary from the rock wall there and or up on top of the hill, glide to the opening there, and fall to your death. 27:21
Alternative name how fast can you beat Pokémon legends arcues with the leases amount of catches. Or how fast can you beat PLA with the least amount of task done.
Required Catches (in progress) (included all starters because you catch at the beggining): Rowlet Cyndaquil Oshawott Bidoof Starly Shinx Duskull Chatot Geodude Rhyhorn Palkia Dialga
PulseEffects did a minimum captures speedrun a while back, and he did manage to do it with 22 Pokedex counted captures, across everything. You do consider "catching" to be different than what he did, so just something to know
skyrim horse was exactly what came to mind when i was using my wydeer to shimmy up cliffs im glad i wasn’t the only one LOL also i suck at the boss battles and i got dialga first try. it’s just the easiest.
Would it have been possible to beat without the Chatot? Could you have gotten it with just the Geodude and Ryhorn catches-- since their final forms still had tasks left uncompleted?
I’m doing a similar thing, but in regards to required ENTRIES, not catches. I’ll have extra lines filled in for catching multiple, and will be able to farm grit by catching loads of starly, shinx, etc. I will also add any entries filled by catching a random shiny (or shiny ponyta)
Early Prediction. I don't think it's possible, but I won't be surprised if he finds a way to do it. Edit: Unfortunately I was correct. He had to catch three non mandatory pokemon to proceed with the story.
I wonder if it would be possible with just 2 extra catches if done so earlier in the game. You only needed to catch chatot to fill in a little bit of points. I never completed the spiritomb quest in my playthrough (i just bred a spiritomb from elsewhere lol) so I don't know if you catch it in the wild or if it manifests into your party, but if it doesn't count as a "capture" you could fill the dex with its entry too. I don't know if that would be enough. Alternatively if there are any in-game trades you could maximize entries by getting 2-5 for the price of 1 but I don't remember there being any.
You want a challenge in a game that's (somewhat) similar to this? Try to beat Pokepark for the Wii one with the least number of friends possible. Never done this myself, and I imagine it'd either be super annoying, or super easy. In case it's super easy, try doing it with the least number of upgrades too. (Honestly, just want to see more people play my favorite childhood pokemon game)
(This is my first time seeing any of the opening to this game.) The game really starts with god updating your phone and sending you a chat message. Oh my Arceus.
I would consider any Pokémon required through a request (Ponyta, Chimecho, Spiritomb, Buizel, etc.) to be mandatory catches even if they're not necessary for the storyline.
Just for the record, Prosperity is an NPC satchel that you get when you play offline or you collect too many at one time
She’s always dying in easy spots in my game
I thought she was a real person and was genuinely dumbfounded on how she died EVERYWHERE
