I accidentally called Bayleef "Quilava" . I hope you can forgive me.
Also since I'm getting a lot of comments about it! Regigigas can't learn Protect in this game. Look at the TM list at the start of the video, it's not on there. Trust me, if it was an option I'd be using it. I do agree that drain punch would have really helped though, I should have tracked down a heart scale and got it back for that fight, but it didn't come to mind at the time.
If you ever do a Bayleef run, at least now you have the nickname
Would you make an intentional mistake in your videos to see how many comments you get😁
@@arcangelgutierrez88 Nope! Honestly, what's the point? People accuse me of doing that sometimes, but it doesn't make any sense. I guess I'm flattered that people find it more believable that I'd intentionally get something wrong than me genuinely messing up, but nope. When there's a mistake, it's just a mistake.
There's no point in making a mistake to get people to comment when people will comment regardless. That's what the fossil gag is for. A 100% transparent gag where I literally announce that it's good for the algorithm.
It genuinely made me laugh
@MahDryBread what would be kinda funny the pokemon you replace you use as the nickname lol
I’ve learned in my time playing that if a pokemon gets drain punch, you keep drain punch. Maybe that could’ve helped VS Snorlax?
A wild Austin John appears.
It really could have turned the whole fight. Could have healed a lot off of snorlax's huge HP stat and get rid of slow start.
I can't fathom why he didn't use return earlier in the run. That would have been more powerful then even a 2x effective elemental punch at max friendship.
MDB’s runs are never about the optimal play. I watch Scotts Thoughts for that.
@@TheMachoman94because return spam is done just way too much. Hes talked about this in many other videos
I LOVE how ridiculous it looks when Regigigas is walking behind you in the overworld xD
I know its awesome
The Sprite is just shaking
I like how it can't walk behind you in buildings. Nice attention to detail
20:38 trick room makes slower pokemon move first and faster pokemon move last :)
He cant be blamed for not knowing cuz the in-game pop-up message for using it is weird & doesnt explain its effect properly if you're not looking at & reading its move desc.
It's a great move in competitive but nobody really ever uses it in a normal playthough. Like sure you could build a trick room team but when you can beat the game with a solo pokemon that's overkill
In an alternate universe, Regismoll's ability is Fast Start, which doubles its low ATK & DEF for 5 turns.
And in that world, he slaps mega raquaza..
They built the continents hauling tiny pieces of dirt one at a time, but like they were really fast about it
@@badger273 GOTTA GO FAST!
Trick Room makes it so that pokemon with lower speed go first for five turns. That's why Exeggutor was able to move first after setting it up, but was otherwise moving second.
And why Machamp was initially faster, but then Regigigas outsped when it wore off.
Deleting Drain Punch was probably your undoing against Red. With hail negating your Leftovers recovery, you really needed another way to heal and stall the battle until Slow Start wore off, and Drain Punch would nail both Snorlax and Lapras.
Maybe Shell Bell would be better since its heal effect is based on damage dealt and not a percentage of max HP
@@cseymour-veriod2110 With Slow Start halving the Attack, probably not.
@@cseymour-veriod2110All of the HP-draining moves' healing is based on damage dealt though?
@@cseymour-veriod2110 There's some stuff that makes me think Shell Bell might outheal leftovers in some cases, namely hitting venusaur with avalanche and charizard with rock slide (or stone edge if you do a bunch of battle frontier grinding) since the effective base powers are so high (both would do more damage and give more healing than drain punch), but I can't find their stats to run the actual damage calcs on them or figure out if the total healing and healing at key points would be enough. Leftovers tends to out-perform Shell Bell overall, but this is a weird battle to math out.
That Regigigas sprite following you is hilarious. Like you're slowly being chased by a monster lol
That fight vs the meowth will always be a standout moment for the channel
Which video was that again?
I literally didn't even know those mechanics existed in the game
Came for Regigias, stayed for Meowth
The Red fight could potentially be a bit more probable if you swapped to the date when diamond dust is the weather condition
And relearned drain punch. It's effective on 3 of the 6 Pokemon especially Snorlax
@@AussieRider20 Drain Punch was a TM, he can't get it back. Unless he wants to retry the lottery on Thursdays for the 10% chance. Still, I think he should have never replaced it to begin with.
@@AndresLionheartyeah, when you have drain punch, you don't replace drain punch. Since it was a post game fight I'd say he should've been allowed to cheat a drain punch TM into his inventory though
The move tutor lets you relearn and move your pokemon learned in HGSS even moves they learned via TM
@@ericsegura4977 oh, I didn't know it worked like that. I never deleted moves learned from TMs back when they were single use.
At 13:30 that extra level made a lot of difference against Gyarados. Because with 164 HP, Regigigas was putting up 41 HP substitutes, which means Gyarados was unable to one-shot them with Dragon Rage. With a bit of RNG luck it would have made it possible to gain the advantage.
3:55 ah yes, Quilava, my favorite grass starter
Ah, Dizzy Punch, the move everyone forgets is Gen 1 cause it was exclusive to Kangaskhan & didn’t even cause confusion.
Just like Waterfall on Goldeen/Seaking
I actually only learned about it in gen 1 by spamming metronome with my mewtwo over and over for fun and eventually getting it. My friend didn‘t believe me that that move exists back then. It being Kanga only explains why we never saw it anywhere else lol
On our way through, I battled Youngster Joey. I knew if I didn’t say what I took, you’d all ask. Actually, now that I think about it, everyone asks anyway. Comments are good for the TH-cam algorithm.
About the permanent hail, there's one day (pokemon day, I believe) where there's "diamond dust" falling instead of snow, and that has no effect con the battle
Your birthday might be another day too
@@vongolashodaime1975 not in HGSS, IN HGSS the dates hail is replaced are feb 29th, March 15th, Oct 10th, and December 31st.
Pokemon day being a diamond dust day is only for pokemon platinum
Pretty sure I've seen it in HGSS, though?@@stigmaoftherose
@martirecu3010 diamond dust is in HGSS just not on pokemon day, read my other comment for what days it is on. Just check the bulbapedia page for Easter eggs and it has the date for it on each different date and what games it is in. Birthdays for example are diamond dust days in XY, SUMO/USUM, and SV.
First minute of the Challenge and seeing Giygas waddling behind MDB on the first route got me giggling.
I forgot how humorous the following Pokémon were in HG/SS.
I thought of slender man because of the night time.
2:50 Watching Gygas follow you in this game is hilarious.
I love how in the overworld, Giygus following you just feels like your own Stand. It also punches so you are just Jojo-ing your way through the challenge.
Edit: Forgot Protect was added to Regigigas's movepool in a later gen.
New strategy, get Drain Punch back from the move relearner. Equip the Black Belt you get from the Lake of Rage on Wednesdays. I did the calc, it should be a roll to KO after Volt Tackle recoil. We're still dependent on a focus blast miss or Snorlax coming out next, but the extra healing from the extra damage should balance out the lack of leftovers.
Old:
Replacing Substitute with Protect probably would've helped just a bit with the final Red fight. But you'd still want to keep retrying until you got another Focus Blast miss. Protect -> Attack (OHKO Pikachu) -> Protect -> Focus Blast Miss -> Protect gets you out of Slow Start. Hopefully you'd have enough strength to get through the rest of the fight. Keep Leftovers to heal off Hail damage.
Keeping Drain Punch around probably would've helped. Potentially even getting rid of Dizzy Punch during the mid-game and getting Return for the late game. Ideal final setup wold probably be Return, Drain Punch, Protect and Thunder Punch/Ice Punch. Though with max Friendship Return does more than either punch moves against Charizard/Blastoise/Venusaur. Maybe Zen Headbutt for Venusaur, but I don't want to add any more luck to the fight if we're going for a Focus Blast.
Regigigas can't learn protect in HGSS
@@TheBestEver1998 Right, thanks for reminding me. New strategy.
He can't get Drain Punch back since it's a TM
I love when you at least attempt Red in HG/SS, even if it's a losing proposition. Maybe if the pokemon has it in their move pool, after attempting him normally, you could use taboo cheesy strats like sand attack and double team against him only. Just to see if it's even possible.
I went through the playlist and I believe you have only done one other challenge in HeartGold and it was with a Ledyba and that definitely wasn't going to beat Red's team. So maybe we need to request more HeartGold runs so here is a couple. HeartGold with only one Gligar and HeartGold with only one Skarmory. I think Gligar might have a chance at beating Red but blastoise might just one shot it and skarmory probably doesn't stand a chance but could be fun.
Love the content man always looking forward to watching these bro!!!
About the Red fight... there are some days when the fight does not have Hail. But those are on SPECIFIC dates. Those dates being February 29, March 25, October 10 and December 31. Note these uses your DS' calendar, and you might need to set the dates 24 hours in advance, (so on the day before what's listed here Feb 28, March 24 ETC) as I have seen conflicting reports on whether HGSS has a 24 - hour no timed events lock for messing with the calendar or not.
Regigigas is honestly a very interesting pokemon, love seeing it in these challenge runs.
Seeing Regigigas show the Dancer the way out of the forest is a pretty funny image
Edit: does anybody know why Lyra had a Lopunny instead of her Marill? Quirk with the randomizer? I dont remember any other heartgold runs that have that happen.
I always love seeing your videos I even tried a few challenge runs and most of them where pretty hard.
A little surprised you didn't upgrade from dizzy punch to return at some point.
Probably received a dozen comments about it already, but there's two things you could've done to make Red a little easier.
1. Keep Drain Punch. Even if it's only super effective against Snorlax and Lapras, that thing will still heal you quite a bit. It could even heal you a ton on Pikachu despite Slow Start. With Leftovers as your held item, Drain Punch to heal + for Snorlax and Lapras, Thunder Punch for Blastoise and Charizard, Ice Punch for Venusaur, and Return for good neutral damage, you may have done it.
2. If you change the date on your compu- I MEAN, your *_totally real and very existent Nintendo DS._* Anyways, if you change the date to either October 10th or December 31st, then the weather on top of Mt. Silver won't be hail. It'll be a completely unique weather condition called "diamond flurry". The cool thing about diamond flurry is not only the fact that it doesn't hurt you like hail, it also won't make Blizzard 100% accurate. And that would make Leftovers heal you rather than just fighting off the hail damage.
im binge watching all your old episodes during my full teeth extraction recovery, thank you for keeping me entertained MDB
I love watching you play heartgold, its my favorite pokemon game and I hope I get to see more of this game.
Thank you for still doing these 🖤
"I don't know what [Trick Room] does." Proceeds to almost get stomped by Machamp who was going first thanks to Trick Room
Trick room flips speed rules, so slowest goes first.
Love how committed you are man! Ever considered branching out into rom hacks/fan games?
Great run! Hope you continue to do well!
Woah, seeing the massive, lumbering Reggigigas just running around behind you, towering over you is comical 😂
Great run as always!
Whenever Regigigas uses Dizzy Punch, my head cannon says he yells “I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news” and just pulls out a red armband and just Bull Hammer them.
(It’s a wrestling reference if you don’t get it)
I'd love to see another Nancy Drew let's play, yours was so fun to watch!
Glad to see this guy again
20:30 Trick room makes it to where the slowest pokemon goes first, and the fastest pokemon goes last.
20:53 trick room will make the pokemon with the lower speed stat move first while it is active
This is why the machamp outsped him and got the wallop with dynamic punch. Trick room was still active and so the slower machamp moved first
It's ez to see what it does while in my play. The slow goes 1st so say, Munchlax & Shuckle will mostly move faster than others.
Always love the chimyra sponsership, wish you had somebody like mandjtvs grunty boy or caddicarus' spons to make them kinda comedic, but i aint complaining that your just explaining all of chimyra's stuff
20:34 I could be wrong and I don't know specifics, but I believe Trick Room flips around turn order- so instead of the higher speed Pokémon going first, the slower goes first.
Just so you know because you said you didn't know what trick room is, it's a move that essentially reverses speed tiers, making the slowest pokemon move first instead for like 4 or 5 turns. I'm surprised you didn't know that, but i guess it makes sense since i don't think that would really be a great move for your challenge runs
Was screaming "USE PROTECT!" at the top of my voice....
Alternate between Protect and attacking. Keep Thunderpunch to deal with Blastoise, and Charizard, re-teach Drain Punch for more healing vs Snorlax and Lapras, and Dizzy Punch for Venusaur.
Rework your EVs to maximize HP and Attack if that's an option, and use PP Ups for Dizzy and Drain Punch, and Protect. This is gonna be a fun ride:
Vs Pikachu start with Protect, then hit Drain Punch. We're testing ranges. If it KO'es it, then great. If not, then it should be on red HP forcing out a heal item. Drain Punch again the next turn, then Protect, followed by Drain Punch. That's 5 turns, and you got your act together. Now if you do get the KO on Pikachu on turn 2 with Drain Punch, alternate between Protect and Punch for the next Pokemon. It's best if you can get rid of Slow Start vs the Pikachu since it can't really threaten to KO you (bar a crit) but you have to work around the Static. If you manage to get that, then the fight should be a breeze. You COULD theoretically gamble for a double protect as well if you're feeling adventurous.
Hope this helps!
What I don't understand is WHY did I have to scroll this far to see ONE person talking about THE move that helps gigas be viable. I was doing just like you, screaming at my phone to just use protect lol the amount of turns you stall not losing heath instead of using subs is a lot better against Red and if I'm not mistaken, you can get it easily at the department store, not needing to voltorb flip, as is the case for subs. And ofc, the punches as you said. But yeah, use protect, guys!
It can't learn protect haha
Holy crap my friend you’re right! It doesn’t learn Protect until Gen 8!
Trick Room is one of the most important moves in Pokemon’s VGC competitive format. Makes it the slower the pokemon, the higher priority it will go first (basically, reverses speed rules).
Its not Saturday without MDB and a pokemon challenge!! I hope to see you do a gen 6 challenge at some point!
I also hope that, but I also hope he does a gen 5 run soon
Glad to see your using the big boy again
It's always funny revisiting this channel and forgetting about the water onix joke
Regigigas runs are always fun. I enjoy it when you’re using cool or gimmicky pokemon, or even just cool pokemon you like.
3:55 That's a funny lookin' Quilava.
The sheer hatred for voltorb flip is hilarious cuz I always found the minigame fun and easy
Ah yes! Another nice Gigas run. This is gonna be good.
3:55 your deceptions shall not fool me, yeast man!
Thank you for a fun run=)Have a nice week=)
I would love to see an infinite fusion run it could be interesting
Man that meowth fight was insane.
Trick Room reverses the speed order, causing slower Pokemon to take their actions before faster ones (assuming same priority). It's the gimmick of this gym, rather than focusing on a specific Pokémon type.
A good run with a brutal wall of a final fight. So now I'm here to suggest pokemon gold/silver with a single Murkrow
drain punch + a muscle band to keep your hp up and give your other moves a little more damage. Maybe a chesto resto strat to cure para from pikachu and stall out turns for slow start too. Other options include relearning knock off to remove pikachu's light ball to reduce its damage output and stalling it out with rest without chesto. You could have taught mud slap to lower pikachu's accuracy. Regigigas gets rock polish for some unknowable reason, so that might have been an out to your poor speed at the start of the fight.
My cats seem to like your voice, as they get much more active and affectionate whenever I put on one of your videos.
hi love your pokemon challenges. there are cool. i was looking at the list and do not see a team rochet run or an eevee evolutions run or is that for future run??????
I love how small the in-battle sprite for Regigas is
Watching that absolute titan of a Pokemon waddling behind you is hilarious
In before premiere. love the content. Still asking for Pokemon emerald with one seviper.
Since you mentioned it at 20:32, Trick Room reverses the turn order! Slow Pokémon will go first, fast Pokémon will go last! Priority moves will still go earlier, so you can still go first with a Quick Attack or last with a Roar.
Trick room is a five term move that inverts the speeds of all Pokémon on the field.
So the slowest Pokémon would go first, where the fastest Pokémon would then go last.
There is a way to manipulate the last fight. There are specific days of the year where hail is turned into a phenomenon known as diamond dust, which is affectively snowy conditions, so that’s one way to avoid damage.
I know there are no "on our way" fossils in this game, but I will still ask which one you took.
MDBAMA (or MDB AMA) - if you could choose any piece of media (game, movie, tv show, song/album, etc) that you have already consumed and forget everything you experienced with it so you could experience it again as though for the very first time again, what would you choose?
It would have to be Nancy Drew wouldn’t it?
I was skeptical about Drain punch but a Scrafty in White Two(?) changed my mind. Then had it on almost every team I could
Your rival/friend having a Lopunny......
"It should have been me, its not fair"
Sucks that Regigigas doesn't get Protect until Gen 8, that's so weird
And yea, as many others have said already, I'm surprised you got rid of Drain Punch at all. Once you got any of the elemental punches, I thought Foresight and Dizzy Punch would be the next moves to go since you had a move to hit Ghost types
But no worries! Love your content, so I'm always here to watch (and one of the only youtubers that I don't skip the sponsor section for)
I feel like there's definitely a strategy here with regigigas, like I'm not sure if you tried sub spam at higher levels, also I don't think focus blast missing is really that rare, I call it focus miss a lot because of 70% accuracy,. But I know time is a very limited resource so fully get just didn't want to beat your head against one fight, either way, fun run!
Professor Elm is like: Hey, you're eleven years old now! Here, have a one of a kind legendary Pokemon to grab me a package! 😅
The Gastly line's level-up moveset was famously devoid of non-Ghost damaging moves for quite some time; I think it still would've been like that in Gen 4 which is why all of them just kept trying to status your sub. They can't hit Normal types.
yooo unlisted MDB video, POG
It’s been a while since I’ve been down here to comment, but I’ve been watching your content since about early 2022, and the stuff’s awesome. It’s a good pile of videos to sit down and background listen to.
…by the way, a small little Munchlax has told me to ask you: What fossil did’ja take? Don’t think Platinum naturally has fossils in the main story.
I never realized how strange giga sprite is when is following you. At the start in particular
Trick Room reverses the speed order so that the moves in their respective priority orders goes by slower Pokemon moving first until next 4 turns. Machamp was supposed to be slower than you but because of Trick Room it moved first and broke your substitute with dynamic punch
Trick Room reverses move order in each priority bracket. Generally, it makes slower speed Pokemon go first.
I love seeing Regigigas, a literal god, is casually walking behind a child
20:30
Trick room makes it so that slower Pokémon get to attack first for 5 turns
If you change your date to a specific date (can’t remember off the top of my head), you can change the hail on Mount Silver to Diamond Dust, a weather condition that doesn’t effect battle
That is a very funny looking Quillava at 3:56 😂😂😂
It's VERY shiny
My favorite thing about HGSS is having Pokemon behind you and seeing how awkwardly large legends are along with being able to talk to them.
Best reason I have to comment for the algorithm is that you actually pronounced Giygas correctly.
Trick room switches attack order, so slowest Pokémon attacks first.
I'm here 16 hours early to ask you to do Elder Scrolls Oblivion with only Quest Rewards as Equipment.
This whole run can be summed up with the phrase, "Im just going to punch them, because big arms means big punches."
Diamond Dust helps
Also, Trick Room swaps the priority bracket to where slower Pokemon goes first.
Probably someone has already said it but Trick Room makes slower pokemon move first and faster pokemon move last, it basically switches de speed control for a few turns
I would have suggested switching substitute for protect to stall out slow start turns
Doesn't learn it
Also trick room is a move that for a few turns (around 5 I think) the slower pokemon goes first. So the first fight against blue you said Machamp was faster, it actually wasn't but because Trick room was up it went first due to being slower.
you deserve a more fun than challenging run some times :D
When Blastoise misses the focus blast it is the opening to waste more turns with Substitute and get rid of slowstart. Also if you had drain punch you probably would be better off here. So try Pikachu, reset when you get paralyzed, Blastoise comes out, always press Substitute and reset if he hits focus blast. Return instead of dizzy punch and drain punch instead of Ice Punch. Return for Venasaur. I think that could work, just dont know if switching AI still sends out snorlax at 3rd with the changed moveset
It might be just a little thing, but especially with it effectively ignoring Leftovers recovery, if you change the date of your DS to October 10th (or December 31th?), the hail on Mt. Silver will be replaced with 'Diamond Dust', which means that in battle there will be no Hail damage. Also gives the Blizzard users an extra 30% chance to miss, doesn't hurt either.
HG/SS are still such nice games- like visually speaking! Man I miss em... Anyway- GO GIYGAS GOOOO hahaha
Watching Regigigias walk is making me think of someone playing the xylophone while tiptoeing.
A challenge I really want to see one of you guys do "Can you beat all the pokemon generations with the same team traded along?" So you'd get a team from Pokemon red/blue or yellow and once you beat it you trade all those mons into the next game and beat that. Then you repeat until you beat all the games!
The Red fight is absolutely doable. Even ignoring Return vs Dizzy Punch, you could have easily stalled out Slow Start with Protect, Leftovers, and maybe Drain Punch if you'd kept it.
Also, Focus Blast only has 70% accuracy. Everyone calls it Focus Miss for a reason.
Still a cool run!
Regigigas can’t learn Protect in Gen 4, and Hail keeps you from getting Leftovers recovery. It might be doable if you, say, set up Sunny Day against Blastoise and it misses several Focus Blasts in a row, but I think it would be REALLY difficult either way.
Protect and return may be really helpful. Keep draining punch and substitute.
Regigigas didn't get Protect until gen 8.
Something I would like to see in HG/SS runs with stage one Pokémon is, if the Red figtht proves impossible, to evolve them and check how the evolution would have fared in that one battle, without risking a redundant middle stage run or a thrilless-until-red final stage one.
