@@steel5897 yeah it probably is a less crowded field, but Im pretty sure this was for charity/entertainment so its just to show something new most likely
a couple years ago i used too play a flash game on newgrounds called pico's school; i used to play through it as fast as i could collecting all the medals (i did this just for fun; i had no idea about speed running or even what it was at the time) a few months ago i found out my time was comparable to some of the best speedrunners of the game; if only i'd have known. but i'm just an average joe -so to speak. as in i have no knowledge about how to speedrun whatsoever
it was this game where a school shooter & his friends take over the school & you (playing as an orange haired kid named pico) had to stop them. it was a short game it would take the average player roughly 5 minutes i'd guess

Like, seriously, kudos to Werster for the awesome run. And to the people who made this hack, FR/LG are sensitive as heck to edit -- their coding is unbelievably sensitive. I hope to make high quality hacks like this one day.
FR/LG are actually pretty solid to hack, they are no Ruby/Sapphire but there is a lot of room there. It's nothing compared to Emerald, that game falls apart like Wet Paper
FR/LG are the most stable to edit, at least they were before the disassemblies for Crystal and R/B came out. They are only sensitive if you edit things at random.

I genuenly enjoyed this throughout the entire run, good and interesting commentary and an amazing romhack I’ve never heard of before. This made me wanna play it myself.
I just found this hack last week and I loved every second of it. Easily my favorite Pokemon ROM hack mainly cus of the lack of BS like he said at the begining.
“So first I’m going to turn off the repels and now we’re going to catch a *slave* ” In all seriousness this was a great run, I always like watching you run Gaia 👍
Once again, just amazing. Your pedagogical commentaries are the best too. How much time did you need to prepare for this run ? Do you have like a roadbook or just a genius mind and memory ?
There are points in the video where the stream/recording has to buffer (not youtube) and the timer continues to tick. That seems it might be important for shaving off a couple seconds? Or am I missing something?
Doesn't work in this game sadly. It's a feature added in Gen 4, and while some romhacks do add it in, this one does not. If I did that in this game, I simply would've died and blacked out.
Anyone here know if you can put GBA rom hacks on DS flash carts or not, and if not, could someone please point me to where I could purchase a GBA flash cart?
1:46:15 let's see, a name that LITERALLY means villain in Japanese, using Mightyena which is one of *THE* evil Pokémon, saying you might be in trouble if you step out of line, definitely not sketch
What about now? Post game still not finished? I don't like playing games with zero post game content seems completely pointless to me as I don't speedrun.
last time i check Gaia version on developing, i just played until it island and crack a braile code. and cant go to anywhere. Now, is it already finish?
@@Mrfantastic92 some people only played the old pokemon gen's cause the newer pokemon look mostly disgusting and it feels weird. I loved pokemon blue, crystal, saphire, emerald, diamond, platinum and heartgold(the games i did buy for my Gameboy and my DS Lite), but since black and white i am out. The problem is the games are always the same... a story about a legendary pokemon, a group of criminals/thieves which want to use the legendaries to dominate the world and 8 / 16 badges to get. And the new pokemon names and designs get more annyoing, one looking and being legit garbage, another like a 8 titted monster... i can't follow this kind of uglyness. Some of them are really cool but others are...... yeah. Mega evolutions are broken af and not even every pokemon can have one. And that fairy type got the logic out of everything. A cute little fairy just OWNS every dragon. I know videogames are not made to have logic but you could always think and get an idea of the logic that was meant to be there. Gen 6 was like "i like fairies, lets do fairies and make dragons destroyed by them for no reason". Thats my opinion but yeah after gen3/4(/5) the most ppl stopped playing the pokemon games and newer generations climbed on the newer ones. My personal favourite was Sapphire Ruby Emerald. Actually the first and maybe only time you knew something about your father. Kyogre being the best legendary in my heart! Yeah i am bored thats why i am writing so much lmao.
@@osumazimeowisfromme6241 i agree with everything you said except for the whole fairy concept. I actually like it, its about time they have something else to counter dragons w. Other than ice beam.

@@Mrfantastic92 bro im 29 now i watch short vids on youtube for the nostalgia but i havent played anything past gen 3 and have no plans to as i am a grown man and have other things to do with my life. So please forgive me, oh great adult Pokemon Master
Monferno learns it at lv 14, and chimchar evolves at lv 14 and can't learn mach punch. If chimchar leveled up to 15 before evolving into monferno you need to go to a move relearner to get mach punch.
Werster's busted so many damn pokemon speedrunning records hes gone to rom hacks for the sake of a challenge
Wouldn't rom hacks be easier due to less competition, though? I get what you mean however.
@@steel5897 yeah it probably is a less crowded field, but Im pretty sure this was for charity/entertainment so its just to show something new most likely

Most ROM hacks do their best to remove BS. They’re designed by ppl who have experienced BS
good to see you still enjoying pokémon runs. cheers from a random fan from the states
This game actually looks really well made and fun to play. A great job as always on the run as well
Great run and great commentary Werster! Such a coincidence though that your run time is my exact marathon PB for running! (3:53:53)
Pulling out the hidden antidote at 48:55 was amazing
"We are now slightly ahead of schedule." Based.

Just the content I was looking for. Feels good man
nice run, and congrats on hitting 100K subs!

Fernando is making every other 7-year-old gym leader look bad with his behavior.

Love how the new elder theme is based on the regi theme. Nice touch.
Oh Jesus, I didn't know about this rom hack, it's going to be the next pokemon game I will play for sure

There are points in the video where the stream/recording has to buffer (not youtube) and the timer continues to tick. That seems it might be important for shaving off a couple seconds? Or am I missing something?
No that's definitely an issue.
When is PKMN got poisioned why didnt he continue running at 47:25 so it would survive with 1 hp and then heal it up?
Doesn't work in this game sadly. It's a feature added in Gen 4, and while some romhacks do add it in, this one does not. If I did that in this game, I simply would've died and blacked out.

Werster is Australian, dude. It’s how he says it.
accountnamewithheld its a regional thing. Kinda like Aluminum.
when did he say mash? he said mach correctly at 39:36
And we pronounce Ts as Ds... Someone might say the same thing the next time you say Budder or sevendy. Its just regional.
