Ditto is pretty weird…. ⁉️ Who is your favorite WEIRD/UNUSUAL Pokémon? 🎥 Check this vid out next -> Can you beat the HARDEST Pokémon Game if all trainers are LVL 100? th-cam.com/video/JsWfbROn1aM/w-d-xo.html
Primape because yha it's lore is sad and disturbing but here's the funny thing it can learn the move meditate meaning it has the ability to not be so angry but only through selective breeding kinda sad really
I’d like to imagine that at the end Leon was just so tired of beating you again and again that he intentionally used the moves that best fit your strategy so he can finally retire
Leon really wanted to be an activist promoting clean energy that does not rely on Eternatus, didn’t he? I mean, ignoring Chairman Rose’s pleas did lead him to raise Eternatus, but still.
At level 100 your ditto has 300 HP, and by the calculations, that's the highest a ditto can have. Your ditto had 31 HP IV. If IVs were random then you had some good luck.
If I was doing the run I'd just hack in a ditto with 31s in all IVs and max the useful EVs to give myself the best advantage. Seemed like he had some hacked items so it's no a stretch
I cant even imagine what the trainer's reactions are when there team got destroyed by 1 single ditto without ever knowing they have been fighting them for weeks
this challenge is the monkeys with typewriters of the pokemon world, with the amount of times you just have to replay a battle and hope for rng. no shade, and HUGE props for both the patience and planning required
This is probably the first time I've seen Hop be the biggest challenge, the funniest part being that he's only so tough to beat BECAUSE he's such a bad trainer 🤣
fun fact about shell trap: Shell Trap will not be triggered from the Pokémon being hit by a move that's receiving a bonus from Sheer Force. just super strange but cool
immediately upon starting this video I recognized imposter as a potential double-edged sword. free transformation on turn one, yes, but no struggle strats. there's no cop-out, you are STUCK with your opponent's first pokemon
Just the thought of everything you had to do and go through to complete this challenge gives me the chills. I’m stressed out just thinking about it lol 😂
This was extremely entertaining. I would want to see this challenge as a nuzlocke, with the added rule that you can add a ditto to the team after each gym badge maybe?
Just a FYI confusion was nerfed in gen 7 so it's only a 30% as opposed to the original 50% of the time so it's not as detrimental to your strategies as it once was hence why you luck out more frequently
We're finally off the Training wheels "ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT!?" i mean the entire game is a tutorial. thats what it seems like with the way the game holds your hand throughout the whole bloody game like a fussy Nany.
man i cant believe you actually did this this is incredible. Not sure if youve seen it or know him but Jrose did a ditto only challenge on emerald and there was this glitch.... or something where if you level up in mid match the level up stats of ditto override the copy stats so in certain matches he was using a copied mon with his actual ditto stats. I just wanted to know if this happened for you in this run. Amazing video cant leave a comment without saying that man
Except technically he can't beat this game with the ruleset because the double battles make it so he had to have a second pokemon which means he can't beat the game with just one ditto.
Oh my gosh! I saw Pikasprey's series of a Ditto long ago, but that was in an old gen when Struggle did 1/2 the damage _dealt,_ not a quarter of your HP (meaning you could slowly whittle down strong targets). I thought this was impossible in newer generations, and Hop's awful, awful, lead Woolo doesn't help - but sometimes you get so lucky like having a move that hits both in the last gym! Also, 10/10 vid and editing, haven't enjoyed a Pokemon vid this much since MDB
I haven't played pokemon in years, but seeing some of the new[er] pokemon is so cool! Most of them are really creative, although some of them kinda look like digimon lol (which would be fine, but these are not digimon)
A player wishes for you to not crit A nuzlocker wishes that you don’t end the battle with a win Only a ditto user wishes you the best stats and good moves
Two types of battles: 1) The opponent starts with a Pokemon with a type advantage against their other Pokemon. 2) The opponent starts with an awful Pokemon, severely hindering Ditto's ability upon transforming and usually relying on the opponent to do a rare chance of doing bad moves.
seeing this video i kinda wish there was a kaizo Sword&Shield where you can play the game against trainers and gym leaders with competitive pokemon fully ev trained with held items like they kinda did for the gym rerun in BDSP
This run being so terribly hard, hilariously enough, proves that this game was laughably easy if played as intended. Most of the major battles consist of poor ai and terrible movesets.
i think you should use a bunch of dittos then you could switch them in, and have them change to the pokemon they are fighting instead of just having one pokemon, fighting whole parties of other pokemon. you dont have to make things super hard :P
I mean, it still would've been pretty difficult since using struggle makes u lose 1/4 of ur hp. Doesn't having imposter make it easier, especially in later fights
@@thevioletbee5879 But that's only applicable to the first three generations. Going into the fourth gen, struggle was nerfed into the floor, going from dealing recoil based on the *opponent,* to now dealing recoil based on *you,* meaning levelling up doesn't make the recoil easier to handle. Thanks, Leftovers Wobbufett... Though at least the move can no longer miss (except against the usual suspects of dig and co. of course) while it could before.
I always thought of doing a 2 ditto playthroug. Both having imposter, means no pp problems, i think. But one is obviously incredibly difficult and annoying. Well done.
Goodness gracious, this popped up in my recommended and HOLY you deserve more likes and subscribers just for this video alone! This seems like it was a slugfest to get through. You are a madman x3
Nope. Post gen 4 struggle means any battle with 4 pokemon or more is impossible. And you can't ohko wooloo with a struggle crit to transform into pokemon 2 either.
I liked pokemon content looking forward to the next video i thought your videos are about pokemon memes cos your thumbnail is funny, new subscriber from Indonesia.😂
I thought this would be “can you beat pokemon sword with just one pokemon?“ because the title cut off (edit: so would you just ev train ditto’s hp?) (edit 2: seeing motostoke reminds me of good times grinding to level 60+ pre gym, exp candies are incredibly overpowered)
Sounds like you needed 2 dittos so Duncan could switch out and then come back in as one of the opponents' later Pokemon. Also abusing friendship mechanics might have gotten you more lucky saves. :D
I do wonder though... How come your chosen starter was Grookey? Shouldn't it have been one of the other two so Leon doesn't get a 2nd Fire type against your transformed Aegislash (Leon will take the starter strong against yours, to be used fully evolved in his battle)? Or is the team different depending on the starters?
Yeah I didn’t really have the foresight when I started the run to see think this far ahead was the real problem…. It would definitely be a valid thing to explore though
In my view for the Double battles you should have got another imposter Ditto to use. That way you'll copy both of the foe's pokemon. Making it true ditto only run.
Quinn:I just use up all my luck 5 minutes later gets lucky Quinn:now just used up my luck ANOTHER 5 minutes later gets lucky Quinn:now my luck is gone 5 minutes later gets lucky Quinn: :O
Imagine this same challenge but: NUZLOCK, EVERY TRAINER HAS LEVEL 100s, CHAMPION RANK AI, NO GRINDING, AND NO ITEMS (this is also called The Ditto Hell Challenge)
Ditto is pretty weird….

Probably ditto. He’s just so derpy
ur mom
Arcanine would have been level 27 but it is level 25

Ledian. I don't find it weird but people think I'm weird for it
G-Max Wildfire: *Would literally burn Aegislash-Ditto to a crisp*
Leon: Nah, lets not use it.
Makes sense to me /j
Perhaps he didn’t get the type matchups memorized
I think he wants to retire
When Leon is stressed about being a celebrity and so he subtly throws while looking like he is trying hard.
he must of not listened to hop going on and on about type matchups
I’d like to imagine that at the end Leon was just so tired of beating you again and again that he intentionally used the moves that best fit your strategy so he can finally retire

Bruh, you can look up ditto and it'll tell you that, no calculations needed! (Just for the future to make it easier on you)
@@darkphoenixgaming8253 What? I just put it up in the damage calculator, of Pokemon showdown.
@@Acs2004 oh well I thought that you were saying that you were just tryna find out the health I've of the ditto?
@@Acs2004 it’s easier to just look up ‘ditto base stats’ and it’ll tell you the maximum value any stat can be
I cant even imagine what the trainer's reactions are when there team got destroyed by 1 single ditto without ever knowing they have been fighting them for weeks
Lol bot
@@ProwlerGoku ;-;

I guess you could say that this challenge was a…struggle.
LMAO
Bruh... lol
Ain’t no way
Only people which watch gets it
Bruh. Lol good one
That was a very merciful Charizard fight at the end
The way it set up helpful terrain and weather for you instead of ending the game was remarkable
This is probably the first time I've seen Hop be the biggest challenge, the funniest part being that he's only so tough to beat BECAUSE he's such a bad trainer 🤣
Hop is such a pitiful rival. And he wonders why he keeps losing.
Hop is just like geeta
They both use trash pokemon
By FAR your best one yet. This one was so fun
My First One
Thank you for doing challenges that no one else is brave enough to do.
Someone already did this, Pikasprey. He beat every gen 1, gen 2 game without impostor, and in 1 attempt.
@Nipocu Yeah, but it’s showing that dittto only have happened, with harder rulesets.
@@vam_ola yeah. I've watched that one.
I used blipbug in pokemon ultra sun
@@owenandemmadowsett6970 Post evidence.
Oh dude this is just what I needed, I'm sick home from work and needed something good to watch, but good is an understatement here!
Happy to help :)
@@Quinnjamin I was curious if you could link me the Drifveil City remix you used.
This game literally looks better than Scarlet and Violet
It really is
Ikr but it’s not I played this and it’s the same

Both are really nice though, change my mind(you cant)
I kinda agree

14:55 I love that crustle in particular because for like half a second it had me like “dafuck”
holy shiet this fishing for RNG mustve been hell! i respect you not just struggling with ditto with no transform pps in those hard battles!
ditto only challenges: one of the rare instances where your opponent knowing crappy moves is actually worse for YOU.
This run seems more painful then the shiny runs
but it also seems so much more rewarding than some sparkles
@@hanachanp5335 nah
This was extremely entertaining. I would want to see this challenge as a nuzlocke, with the added rule that you can add a ditto to the team after each gym badge maybe?
I've watched quite a few of Pokemon challenge runs, and I think this is the most impressive one I've seen so far.

That glitch is only in gen 3 (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed, and LeafGreen)
There’s a huge difference between having 2 dittos and having a ditto
I could feel your pain through the screen 😂Congrats on beating this game with this ruleset

I’m glad you enjoyed it! It was definitely a grind so I’m glad someone got some enjoyment out of it
After using every atom of luck he had, Quinton was struck by lightning five times while a Stradivarius violin was being smashed over his head.
Foddy was the mvp.

Duncan got some nightmares after hop battles

For the double battles it would of been pretty funny to have 2 dittos fight
"Can you Beat Pokemon Sword with JUST ONE Ditto?"
Oh that's cool! I didn't know Pokemon sword had a different stow on side gym!
It's more like you're beating Leon's team to whatever he sends out first
I'm pretty sure Leon was a paid actor here, that was way to convenient of a throw, he's clearly been bribed.
no sweat about wanting to give up. I have a grubbin only run where i quit trying for 2 years then returned to beat Oleana at the end of the steel gym.
i think you should use a bunch of dittos then you could switch them in, and have them change to the pokemon they are fighting instead of just having one pokemon, fighting whole parties of other pokemon. you dont have to make things super hard :P
Read the title
@@xiulinjian5969 its pretty clear he cant or that its very hard, i dont want him wasting his time on impossable
That sounds like a horrific process. Congrats.
when hop is actually challenging
“Should be easy enough. You just waste transform PP and-“
“It has imposter.”
“Oh…”
I mean, it still would've been pretty difficult since using struggle makes u lose 1/4 of ur hp. Doesn't having imposter make it easier, especially in later fights
@@talete7712 I mean I guess without in-battle items. But the Pikasprey runs showed that struggle is a really valuable asset.

Okay I'm subbing immediately after the Kevin James bit. I can't resist a promise like that.
Bro it’s like:
“Yo Hop does your Pokèmon have this move?”
“Uhh I don’t think so. Why?”
“Aw crap.”
I always thought of doing a 2 ditto playthroug. Both having imposter, means no pp problems, i think. But one is obviously incredibly difficult and annoying. Well done.
Omg I'm working on a ditto run through on shield! I've got 3 badges so far...... It's erm, quite a challenging playthrough lol
When the Duncan is sus 0:12
As a wise man once said “if you master dito you master every Pokémon”
11:41 bro's been farming berries
Goodness gracious, this popped up in my recommended and HOLY you deserve more likes and subscribers just for this video alone! This seems like it was a slugfest to get through. You are a madman x3
Imagine having your whole team soloed by your own and often weakest team member
Would a Ditto without Imposter have been an easier run because of the possibility of deliberately using Struggle with Ditto's actual stats?
Nope. Post gen 4 struggle means any battle with 4 pokemon or more is impossible. And you can't ohko wooloo with a struggle crit to transform into pokemon 2 either.
Disable's Disable Was Disabled By Disable!
I feel like doubles would have been fun with two dittos
If you don't get the name reference for the name, Duncan is the name of a xenoblade character
I mean you could have had 4 or 6 ditto's with imposter, but using just one is insanely crazy
I liked pokemon content looking forward to the next video i thought your videos are about pokemon memes cos your thumbnail is funny, new subscriber from Indonesia.😂
IF you want to, my challenge is to beat the sinnoh remake with only Smeargle… unlike this challenge, you can have up to 6 if you’d like!!!
but- sacrad sword is special and aigeslash used max nuckle which boosts...
nah just cherry picking, great video
It is crazy to think that the hardest battles of this challenges is hop's one just because he is normally a complete push-over😂
Game freak: there are hundreds of Pokémon you can use
Challenge poketubers: are you sure about that
When the rival is actually difficult for once:
Lol
And it still is a way to state how bad Hop is as a trainer since his Wooloo/Dubwool has bad moves until the end
It’s sad that he had a level 95 ditto and couldn’t take down a pincurchin
I thought this would be “can you beat pokemon sword with just one pokemon?“ because the title cut off (edit: so would you just ev train ditto’s hp?) (edit 2: seeing motostoke reminds me of good times grinding to level 60+ pre gym, exp candies are incredibly overpowered)

Amazing battle

Hop in normal runs vs Hop in challenge runs be like:
You can't underestimate ditto! Ok maybe you can, this looked terrible to go through hahaha good job
A true master, using the worst Pokémon possible for this challenge. Bravo(I’m subbing just for this vid)
Quinn:I just use up all my luck
5 minutes later gets lucky
Quinn:now just used up my luck
ANOTHER 5 minutes later gets lucky
Quinn:now my luck is gone
5 minutes later gets lucky
Quinn: :O
Bro that would be such a flex “yeah I just beat your entire team with one slightly worse version of your Pokémon”
I am surprised he didn't grab the pp up on route 2 after the swim upgrade for his bike. Probably would have made it alittle easier
Unfortunately PP up doesn’t work on Ditto, all you could do would be to raise transform PP which would be useless bc his ditto has imposter
ngl that sub plug was so funny XD deserved sub! Lets beat the King of Queens
Video in a nutshell: “you dare use my own spells against me potter
You should try beating sword shield with only metronome
i think they should do when pokemon who use transform into other pokemon after use all pp should bach to be a pokemon he was
Lol, too op
5 is enough
I still think that ditto should transform back when running out of pp
7:44 Corvisquires unnerve ability also makes berries useless.
"I promise, this isn't an ad, this is serious" pulls a subscriber plug
Imagine this same challenge but: NUZLOCK, EVERY TRAINER HAS LEVEL 100s, CHAMPION RANK AI, NO GRINDING, AND NO ITEMS (this is also called The Ditto Hell Challenge)
ditto is a curious pokemon, he can be overpower and nothing at the same time
3:41 I heard that little berry pun
How did you get 999 of each berry (11:43 )🧐🧐
when he said at 14:00 “as we exit the gym we hear…” the LiMu EmU ad started💀
You should’ve used a utility umbrella for the hail because it resists all weather stat changes
Utility Umbrella only blocked out Sun or Rain.
...It SHOULD'VE been able to block out all weather effects.
Huh, I was playing Pokémon sword and it saved me from hail
I don't understand why Leon's champion ai would use so many non super effective moves when it had plenty of supereffective options
Maybe ditto confused the ai somehow?
@@okyeah2335 must be that yeah because Champions are supposed to have superior ai and always chose supereffective moves essentially
how dare you forsake the wonderful, beautiful creature that is Wooloo. :
turns ditto into a nuclear bomb and explodes the entire region of pokemon sword
Killer ditto has already touched that doorknob.
For the last Battle, since you know aegislash would have used Shadow ball, what about giving a weakness policy ti ditto?
all trainers in pokemon so: oh amigo im so bad
I don’t know how much easier it would’ve been, but did you consider ev training the ditto for hp?
It already had max hp
What a brave idea. You get a sub
