It feels great to have this finally done but I wanna thank everyone for their patience in waiting for this video, this became so much more than I was initially expecting it to be and on top of how long it physically took to make I got hit with a metric ton of irl stuff to deal with too. I really hope this video holds up and was worth the wait! I don't see myself taking on a video of this scale again for quite some time, admittedly I wasn't having fun by the end of it, and having so many other ideas for things pop into my head while I had to focus on this was killer. Expect some smaller scale sillier stuff in the future, I think I've earned a 20 minute video on one move or a video ranking NU mons based on how they'd behave in an airport if their flight was delayed. (:
That's cool. I don't think videos need to be this long anyway. For every chapter you make of such, you know, that could be its own shorter video in its own right, a part of a series of videos. Just the same as this one could have been one 3+hr mega video combined with the RBY lower tiers vid.
Huge L on GameFreak for not picking up on these colossal oversights. Literally only took a few decades of global scrutiny on the funny gameboy game to find these. Theyd better fix this for Pokemon 2.
The less chansey usage the better RBY OU is off. Honestly the less chansey-line usage the better the tier is off holds up for a remarably large number of tiers
I like to imagine Kangaskhan is genuinely quite pleased with herself. She's put a picture of the rankings up on Facebook with a wee smiley face. Miltank leaves a comment like, "omg congrats!! say hi to the kids for me xx"

I hate to tell you, but its not just Gen 1 where Raticate doesn’t get Growl. Raticate, the fuckass early game animal pokemon of all time, doesn't get Growl, the fuckass early game animal move, in any Gen.
@@BigYellowSilly Raticate is simply a very polite creature. I believe he postures for appearance because his stats are so mid he feels like he needs to be scarier, but in reality, he's a very polite scrungus

I could have probably got decently far in the video by now but I heard Exeggcutor runs mega drain slightly more often now and passed out from eggcitement
I love the characterisation Yellow gives to the mons with their Nicknames, gags and brilliant pixel edits/animations. It's like every mon is a character in a madcap sports anime who are going through their own arcs and getting up to wacky shenanigans trying to make a name for themself or try something new to get one over on their rival(s). I especially love Gengar and the disgustingly smug/goofy expression that Yellow always gives them.
Its finally here. I bought a decadent meal specifically for this video's release. I shall cast it to the big screen, crack open some wine, and enjoy it like a king watching his very favorite jester jingle his little bells. Splendid.
Glad to see how well this turned out, going through RBY's source code is definitely not the easiest thing in the world (and I definitely made some mistakes with my first analysis of the code) but mistakes like that happen. I want to give a huge shoutout to the community at pret that put in the herculean amount of effort to disassemble the code so I could even begin to try finding these results in the first place, and to the people in the speedrunning discord that caught and corrected my initial mistakes when trying to do a deep dive on this. When I have time later, I'd like to look at other random events (like the number of wrap turns and the number of times a multihit move hits) and see how they are affected by the RNG being weird (mainly in terms of damage rolls), but I think I've gone through the most important ones that I could find. If anyone has any questions about how the RNG works, feel free to ask me and I'll try to respond whenever I can.
the Victreebel & Sandslash comparison is making me imagine them as like siblings, where Victreebel does crypto & tries desperately to look cool while Sandslash seems like like they'd be cool doing minimum wage & community service & being a general respected neighborhood guy
The buildup from mentioning Lead Zapdos since the start of the video only to reveal it an hour in has the same energy as horror movies hiding the monster until the end, only instead of a CGI spider it's the best competitive Pokémon of all time feasting as usual.
“Dodrio’s hyper beam is tied with snorlax for the most damaging non sacrificial physical move in the game” Swords dance lickitung at +6: am I a joke to you
Your pixel art animations have seriously gotten so much better and it significantly adds to the quality of these videos. Legit didn’t realize how much I missed your content until I didn’t have it for a while. Excellent video!
"Snorlax is currently the worst Pokemon in OU," Yellow says, while Pursuit: Lying Coldly starts playing in the background. It's such a subtle joke that I can't tell if it was intentional or not lol
Following the Rise, the Fall, the further Falling, and now the dubious Big Rise of Victreebel through your RBY videos has been my favorite running narrative. With these breakdowns I love seeing where that crazy pitcher plant has ended up each time.
I gotta say, you've gotta be RBY OU's strongest soldier and currently most prolific and entertaining documentarian. It's lovely that you took the random success of one video you made and said "this is my chance; I'm making my fixations everyone else's problem now" and now I hate Starmie like any god-fearing Tauros-loving low ladder dummy!
30:20 shocking, Dugtrio is scheming with GameFreak, Smogon, and Big Stall to bring it's signature ability "Arena Trap", to the RBY OU metagame, this is gigantic, big, even, news that everyone should be worried about.
We ain't talking about the Biggest Yellow, nor about the Least Big Yellow. They are *THE* Big Yellow, accept no substitutes. And now we shall listen to them yap.
As someone who was following Yellow's work on this video as it was made, between the meta updating and outdating certain things after they'd been edited, to the numerous rendering headaches, it's super cool to see this video finished. Great work as always Funny Yellow!
I like how the black squares behind Chansey in the thumbnail make it look like it’s dual screen chansey specifically who got upstaged by the happy couple
I'd love to see a video on the history of the Little Three. From their formation as a vague idea around 2016(when Eggy started to show cracks in the Post-Body Slam world and Lapras's massive fall from grace gave Starmie an opening to get into the Top 6) and fully solidified as a 'thing' by 2020 as their spots were proven solid and the Big Four officially died. It's a story of Alakazam's remarkable stability, Eggy's rise and fall and then rise again, and Starmie's slow steady crawl upwards to the point she's starting to threaten Chansey and the Big 3.
17:59 Say it in Big Yellow Victreeatrice! There are only 13 Pokémon at the top of OU! There is no 14th mysterious Pokémon X abusing sleep absorbers and paralyzed Pokémon! Kyaaaaahahahahahaha…! I won’t say it Battauros! I refuse! Kyehehehehe! Dame da… ZEN ZEN DAME DA!!
Bit of a random question, but do you edit the RBY Pokemon sprites yourself or do you have someone else do them? Cuz ngl they look really good and add so much charm to your videos
So sad that keldo travelled back in time to kill chansey, but its a worthy sacrifice to prevent the rise of stall, thus preventing Galarian Wooper from going to the dark side.
1:24:55 I think you're the first person I've heard to say my "firstname bunchanumbers"-ass username the same way I do lol Also it's been said so many times but the little sprite edits and animations and the way you talk about mons like characters and not just, like, a set of stats, types, and moves? It's one of my favourite things about your Pokemon vids. The whole segment of honourable Sandslash vs dishonourable Victreebel was my favourite example of that. It's fun to think of competitive RBY as a little world and not just, like... numbers and words and pngs
the sprite edits are insane as always, genuinely adds a lot of personality and character to each Pokemon. Victreebel in particular always seems super cute, it's become one of my favorites from Gen 1 🥺
Tauros has been so on edge lately ever since they had to kick Chansey out of the polycule because she could only name two of the Beatles. No Tauros Residue has been looked over in the making of this comment.
My favorite thing about OU Dugtrio is how much higher its crit rate feels than it actually is. Being nothing but an electric immune revenge killer feels a lot less bad when Dugtrio gets Tauros's blessing and randomly muscles through an otherwise out of range target

@@madysonandres9571 Something people made up themselves because they have nothing else important in life to focus on so they just try to get as much attention as possible by making their entire identity something completely pointless and fabricated.
@@2bruhiscool no, i just mean that they're my favorite poketubers who happen to be queer, and i only made that distinction bc i was talking about my queer experience and queer content creators are a big part of said experience
Didn't watch the vid yet, but it feels good to comment in an earlier video that Chansey wasn't as necessary as Lax and Tauros, getting many people disagreeing with me and have the meta turn out this way
I was shocked learning that Pinsir doesn't have a single bug move, I know that's a common issue with gen 1 learnsets, pokemon pretty much only having normal moves, but Pinsir doesn't even get 1 move of its only type? not even leech life or pin missile? wild
I think it goes to show how good Chansey is, that Chanseyless as a concept is so revolutionary, its not something you see in modern metagames from my experience.
I love the phrase "it's not a Pokemon you would like to have to put on your team" because it's the perfect way to describe my feelings on Dachsbun in PokeRogue.
Definitely says something that Chansey is still top 3 in a metagame that's punishing passive play more and more. Says even more that it moved down a tier but still kept it's ranking.
The lighting and outfit make it seem like this is the start of the Big Yellow villain arc, and I for one am signing up day one for their minion program.
I don't think I've commented before but I always love your videos! I dont know anything about competitive pokemon in general but you explain really well without it going over my head even without any prior knowledge or context. also always love your visuals, makes it really entertaining to watch lol. really good video and hope you can get a much needed break with shorter videos for a while
I love your Pokemon videos and this one easily takes the cake. It's so fun seeing you excited about developments on such an old game because you're right, it's astounding that to this day there's STILL new quirks being found in this ROM that has been hacked and reverse engineered so many times, or the metagame with a historically fixed aging. And then there's the sprites, gags and stock explosions on the videos. Man I love this channel. Great work as always. (Bonus points for being one of the strange few who actually bother including a music list on the description)
I don't know who does the sprites but I legitimately feel like they're exactly how the expressions made would have been made if GameFreak could have put them in
I'm currently in the hospital recovering from a really major surgery, and literally a day or 2 ago i was looking to see if you uploaded. I'm so glad you did, i love your vids!
ok i love pokemon and all but genuinely as someone whos been discovering their own non binaryness, ur genuinely such a amazing inspiration, style wise and in lots of other ways as well. thank u the biggest of yellow ❤️❤️

the Chansey Ace Attorney breakdown has got to be the peak of Big Yellow RBY sprite editing, holy _fuck_
the wait was worth it, this video was awesome!! hope you can get some rest m8
My favorite queer poketuber (tied with Electricwindgirlfirend) has risen again :)
Also seeing people like you and EWGF be your awesome selves has been a big reason that I'm a lot more comfortable with my identity as a multigender person so thats awesome
you classify poketubers as queer and non queer???
@@2bruhiscooljust let people be happy that get representation, killjoy
Sorry to ask but wdym by multigender?
@@madysonandres9571 Something people made up themselves because they have nothing else important in life to focus on so they just try to get as much attention as possible by making their entire identity something completely pointless and fabricated.
@@2bruhiscool no, i just mean that they're my favorite poketubers who happen to be queer, and i only made that distinction bc i was talking about my queer experience and queer content creators are a big part of said experience
I love how this gen is still adored and we are STILL finding new things to talk about to this day!
Didn't watch the vid yet, but it feels good to comment in an earlier video that Chansey wasn't as necessary as Lax and Tauros, getting many people disagreeing with me and have the meta turn out this way
Came for Big Yellow, stayed for the repeated use of Wojack Blue sprite.
Now I have to make a Jolteon team because sad Jolteon hurts my soul. I hope you're happy.
My cool theory is that Pinsir was brought back just to make you happy :3
I was shocked learning that Pinsir doesn't have a single bug move, I know that's a common issue with gen 1 learnsets, pokemon pretty much only having normal moves, but Pinsir doesn't even get 1 move of its only type? not even leech life or pin missile? wild
Fun fact: It didn't actually get any Bug moves through levels until gen 4. It took until Sinnoh for this guy to get X-Scissor through levels.
I think it goes to show how good Chansey is, that Chanseyless as a concept is so revolutionary, its not something you see in modern metagames from my experience.
I love the phrase "it's not a Pokemon you would like to have to put on your team" because it's the perfect way to describe my feelings on Dachsbun in PokeRogue.
Definitely says something that Chansey is still top 3 in a metagame that's punishing passive play more and more. Says even more that it moved down a tier but still kept it's ranking.
The lighting and outfit make it seem like this is the start of the Big Yellow villain arc, and I for one am signing up day one for their minion program.
It's so fun going through your videos and seeing you get more comfortable in your identity.
I really appreciate all the small quirky and fun editing bit scattered around the bit. Truly a blessing
I don't think I've commented before but I always love your videos! I dont know anything about competitive pokemon in general but you explain really well without it going over my head even without any prior knowledge or context. also always love your visuals, makes it really entertaining to watch lol. really good video and hope you can get a much needed break with shorter videos for a while
I don’t play competitive Pokémon at all but I always do enjoy listening to how this 20 year old meta continues to evolve.
Honestly, I love just listening to Gen 1 OU, and I really find it interesting.
I love actually watching this video and all of the goofy sprite edits. It's informative and it's actually really funny. A+ from me, ten outta ten.
Wake up babe hour long Big Yellow video just dropped
"What's your favourite movie?"
"Oh, easily Recent Developments in RBY OU."
I can't believe Big Yellow spoiled that Articuno is banned into UUBL smh
The Second Channel Squad were aware of Articuno's plight well in advance
Chanseyless team top tip: always replace chansey with the objectively superior porygon
>normal type
>status
>recovery
>bolt beam coverage
Behold, a chansey
I love your Pokemon videos and this one easily takes the cake. It's so fun seeing you excited about developments on such an old game because you're right, it's astounding that to this day there's STILL new quirks being found in this ROM that has been hacked and reverse engineered so many times, or the metagame with a historically fixed aging.
And then there's the sprites, gags and stock explosions on the videos. Man I love this channel. Great work as always. (Bonus points for being one of the strange few who actually bother including a music list on the description)
I don't know who does the sprites but I legitimately feel like they're exactly how the expressions made would have been made if GameFreak could have put them in
If you mean the sprite edits I do them all myself actually, glad you think so!
Oh my god I'm here so earlyyyy
We're eating with this Big Yellow content rn😤
heff on a Big Yellow RBY video, i think that means Blue Kaizo is calling
The bikmin have signed in.
sorry we arent eating anything that's a different video
haven't checked this channel in a while. you look great! and the editing quality is improved!
I just have to say you are such an entertaining content creator you make this stuff so interesting and the editing is also super charming
UMINEKO MUSIC YES
Love the shoutout to peak VN.
Amazing Vid overall.
Articuno is banned? ITS DEWGOVER GUYS ITS DEWGOVER
9:59 sets you up for an ad read and then completely shatters your expectations with more pokemon maths. Bravo, grandiose, thunderous applause
I'm glad so many people are giving Sandslash the love it deserves recently.
I'm currently in the hospital recovering from a really major surgery, and literally a day or 2 ago i was looking to see if you uploaded. I'm so glad you did, i love your vids!
ok i love pokemon and all but genuinely as someone whos been discovering their own non binaryness, ur genuinely such a amazing inspiration, style wise and in lots of other ways as well. thank u the biggest of yellow ❤️❤️
relatable. hope you are having a good time in this journey understanding yourself more! form an enby to another
@@LuaShinethank u !!!! ❤️❤️
I am in agreement with my fellow non binary peers.
As an enby myself, big yellow probably played a part in me realizing that I'm non binary, not even joking
@@ThePablosin1non binary peers? More like more more like more like non binary queers(I can’t help myself)
I love all the facial expressions you’ve edited on all the Gen 1 sprites. It’s really charming
My brother said you look like a conservative’s worst nightmare and that’s the best compliment i’ve ever heard
I think of an edited version of the "beware the pipeline" image going from he/him to she/her, but that works fantastic as well.
Transition goals fr
@@drooprtroopr6969 I hate to be that guy but Big Yellow uses they/them pronouns
"The west has fallen" and it's cause I talked about Beedrill and Worms 3D
That’s a long way of saying they’re trans
OH MY GOD??? DID YOU OPEN A DARK FOUNTAIN INSIDE CHANSEY'S EGG??? 😭😭😭
