NGL when he starts tweaking at 1:56 for missing that trick while he's so far ahead of the records it gave me some good perspective on how perfectionist these speedrunners are
Congrats werster! Also, really appreciate you always putting the FAQs in the description. I love reading about the explanations behind routing decisions.
This will probably be my favorite pokemon game, probably because it was my first. I was definitely like 9 or 10 when I first played. I picked turtwig as my starter, got stuck at the part where all I needed to do was teach rock smash, by the time I made it to the elite 4 my level 74 torterra who I never swapped out got wiped out by the bug trainer and I was pissed. Ik this is random but thanks for the memories
I’m really curious how this run will look in the next couple of years, it’s so interesting how it’s gone from either infernape or Empoleon to now tentacruel and golduck. I’m assuming there won’t be any massive breakthroughs since other water types you can catch at that level kinda suck, like pelipper for example . But at least in diamond and pearl you could realistically tweak to other places such as stark mountain, so who knows if other Pokémon will be considered or whether it’s not possible in platinum idk but it’s super interesting
is there a manip purpose to naming the Rival Roy or is the difference between picking a pre-named rival and typing in a single character just that negligible?
I know nothing about platinum speedruns. How does he have like no wild encounters before floraroma where he can buy a repel? Is there a pathing to it or a manip of some sort?
had a feeling the was going to be the run, but i went out to play video games w the family at about 2 hours in, funny as fuck to see it was barely over a 2:35 lmfao, at least next pb will surely be under that so no worries... right? :^) ggs though, can't wait to see more of the bounty runs honestly, i'm loving the friendship room runs even if they're a little on the shorter side.
nice job on the new record, werster
"It's definitely a record."
- Werster after literally getting a world record in one of the best Pokemon games in the series.
he knows a 2:30 is possible that's why
What's the difference between literally getting a world record and getting a world record?
@@frankg7786One word.
the description of this video is a great read,
fantastic run, gg
I cannot blink without Werster beating another WR of a DS Pokémon game
Maybe if you close your eyes for a minute, he'll break his own Pokemon Stadium record.

Been watching you for over 10 years now. Really cool to see that youre still competetive. Favouroïte speedrunner. Congraats on the WR!
Congrats, lurked for about an hour and knew it was teh urn! Good shit

Yeah I read them everytime. Very cool to get insight from a pro like werster.

ordering some fries, sauce, burgers, and a milkshake so I can watch and truly enjoy this run
All hail the duck!

Congrats !! Respect the grind !
congrats on recovering your title champ

The bug is here
I was just checking the records for this game and I see a new WR by you! Congrats!
aw man i wish i could've seen this live, congrats werster
Good to see 10 years later still going at it
Love the digs at Game Freak during a WR run. It's a shame that they can't figure out how to develop games for the Switch.
timestamp?
@@matthewyoung9088 around 17:35 or so when he's talking about Looker he made some quick jokes. Nothing super serious.
Gen 7 was peak
@@pantsumonsterWHAT😂😂😂 gen 7 built the coffin that switch gens nailed shut
@justinhamilton8647 cope
Watched it live, coming back to watch it again.
Werster from three.... BANGGG!!!! LETS GOOOO
Good on you, lad, the crown is where it belongs.
LET'S GO, NEW WORLD RECORD
Lvl 69 Golduck, nice.
gg on the run
is there a manip purpose to naming the Rival Roy or is the difference between picking a pre-named rival and typing in a single character just that negligible?
It's so that he can make the seed he is trying to hit for the trainer ID. Spending the time to type it misses the seed
53:20 of course, this is where the magic happens 🤣 as soon as he gets the bike, it’s over
sob. he actually did it!! big gz
Congrats!!!!
Wersters WRs lately seem to revolve around duck pokemon lately
especially lately
Congratulations 🎉
You should make a split between Lucas and roark timing how long it takes to actually save the game
Nice! Will you do glitchless?
The looker comparison to the series makes sense,
well done! :)
wow that was fast GRATS!!
When the Golden Duck is doing it.....
I know nothing about platinum speedruns. How does he have like no wild encounters before floraroma where he can buy a repel? Is there a pathing to it or a manip of some sort?
Think a Meditite+ run could be somewhat fast?
Would you be able to do timemarks for gyms?
Does the ball release animation change between balls frames wise?
X Special + Surf + STAB strat 🙌🏻🤣

It's not every day a Golduck takes center stage in a speedrun. By the way, why didn't you battle Maylene?
Masterclass 👏
Just how many WR do you hold now Werster?
83 across different categories
@@urban4151 that's insane
@@grrman so... ngl i completely made that up, he actually has 111 world records Lmao
@@urban4151 lmao your tall tale wasn't tall enough
It's kinda wild how a Platinum WR isnt much longer than a Red WR.
very impressive
Another amazing world record!
Congrats!
3 rock throw failed in a row. Just the luckiest player ever
Another day another record
Any wild poke? In oreburgh mine
I don't think that the FAQ explains this: Why does time not stop as soon as Cynthia is defeated?
Because decisions matter past that point. Specifically, bringing more pokemon as insurance would mean the montage is slower.
Golduck is a god.
That's one bad ass mother ducker
Wow that's fucking impressive dude
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Fav speedruner Love the pastebin in the description.
I wondered what was up with the golduck instead of tentcoool 😅
so fucking real about gamefreak forgetting how to make good games.
W!
If you could increase speed of the HP and EXP bars, this speedrun would be twice as fast.
good jub
really quiet audio
It's true: Gen 4 has the longest early game
Thanks, thanks
53:40 What the heck I thought this speedrun is glitchless and then that.
It’s not glitchless
I just noticed that Colin fucking Farrell was mentionned in the special thanks of Pokemon Platinum credits wtf haha
Charizard is game freak’s favorite Pokémon and it’s not even close.
Why do you use Golduck?
Cuz duck
Read the FAQ pastebin in the description. It’s a really interesting reason why.
pogu
Just outta curiosity, how come he used golduck?
HUZZAH!
🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's always Werster
I love pokaymon
Aint no way
quack
A critical to cranidos yes hagahahhahahhahahhahahahaja

Anyone ever done an Empoleon run? I’m asking because Piplup is obviously the worst of the sinnoh starters
...the description states the route used to be Empoleon solo. pls read the description
"piplup is obviously the worst out of the sinnoh starters"
excuse you. piplup slander is absolutely unnecessary
Pretty sure in every Pokemon game the grass starter is the worst
Gens 1 5 6 8 and 9 have something to tell you @@windwaker0rules
@@windwaker0rules Bulbasaur is obkectively the best started in Gen 1 as it is type effective against the first two gyms and gains xp the fastest.
nice job on the new record, werster
