I was about comment this exact same thing, but then I realized my comment is not original in the slightest so I went to look for this comment which didn't took long at all.
Considering you said "No Mystery Gift pokemon" at the start, I'd say neither Lugia nor Ho-Oh should count in Emerald because they are entirely dependent on that mystery gift.
@@georgesikorski9891 I meant in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Though, I did forget it was released in Heart Gold and Soul Silver, so good catch. Edit: I realize that the way I worded it makes it sound like Arceus never came out, but obviously that's not true seeing as Gen 5, 6, and 7 exist. As I said, I only meant for D/P/PL, but I did forget HG/SS was a thing when I wrote it.
At higher levels this is true. A level 100 Caterpie would beat a level 30 Kangaskhan. It's just a quirk of the formula for calculating stats that a level 1 Pokemon is slightly stronger than it "should" be.
It also eliminates nuances like move pools and future potential. Hypothetically, a Metapod caught at LVL 100 would end up having a strength score of 20.5k, but the only move it would know is harden, whereas a Mewtwo caught at LVL 10 would have a strength score of only 6800, but would know at least confusion and often swift to deal direct damage. And, strictly speaking, a Magikarp caught at LVL 99 would be better than a Magikarp caught at LVL 100 outside of Legends Arceus, because the LVL 99 Magikarp can still evolve.
yes since the main legendary (lugia in silver and ho oh in gold) is only catchable at level 40 i think and later on in the game youu can get a silver ot rainbow wing where you can catch a level 70 version of the opposite legendary (lugia in gold and ho oh in silver)
@@MrMagz924 It was doable in the original Gold and Silver as well (again, your version's at level 40 before the E4, the other one at level 70 sometime after) but basically yeah. Johto was kind to us.
Can you make a top ten list with the most annoying Pokémon to battle with? Like maybe they miss a lot, only learn bad moves, have one extremely low stat (maybe it has decent stats but terrible defence), etc. I think it would be very interesting.
You should divide the BST by the level instead of multiplying it, so that it is the strongest in relation to when you obtain it. If you find a Pidgey on Route 1, it's more useful than if you get it in victory road.
That doesn’t make sense though? Because then a level 2 Pokémon is stronger than a level 50 Pokémon even if that level 50 Pokémon is strong when you can catch it and that level 2 isn’t

Arceus is actually technically obtainable - as well as all the other “mythical” pokemon because of “the void” glitch. Which isn’t a difficult glitch to pull off - just takes a lot of time.
This was a good video, but I think that the formula could have unveiled a much more interesting stat if done slightly differently. If the Pokémon’s BST was divided by the level, then it would show what the relative strength of a Pokemon is. It would pose some neat stats
Regarding Arceus: It is infact possible to catch a "legit" Arceus in Diamond and Pearl using the tweaking glitch, though its not possible in Platinum because of loads of invisible walls they added. That said, while it is definitely possible, you do need to use glitches to do it. That also being said, you can get Arceus using that glitch infinitely many times, and, due to the precise manner they were created, they can actually be transferred into the Pokemon Bank, since it doesnt know the difference between an Arceus caught the way originally intended and one caught using the tweaking glitch.
@@speedreader2660 Basically, you have to tweak your way into Pal Park. From there, you have to go a specific route up to the place where you normally catch Arceus. In Pal Park, you have a menu option that can be used to leave early. The game sets the flag giving you that option upon entering, however, it is never removed because the devs never expected you to leave the way you did. Once in the hall of origin, select that option in your menu, and arceus will appear. This works because the event that would trigger its appearance was, for whatever reason, copied over to the same slot that using that flag activates. Since, for all the game knows, you obtained a legitimate one, it will not be detected by any anti-cheat measures.

Actually, the strongest Pokemon you can catch in R/B is a level 150 Snorlax you obtain through the Old Man glitch. Since it's Lv 150 x its base stat of 495, it comes out to a total of 74,250.
Ooh good idea! I assume it would obviously not count battle facility Pokémon. And I think the highest of them all would be Cynthia's level 88 Garchomp in BDSP, with a strength score of 52800. As for the weakest of them all it would probably be one of the early-route Trainers? EDIT: Wait, I might've found a higher one. In SwSh, Hop uses a level 70 Zacian and Zamazenta in some of his battles, which are in their Crowned Sword and Crowned Shield forms due to holding the proper items. Doing the calculations (720 BST*level 70), their strength score comes out to 50400... which still isn't higher than Cynthia's. She still remains supreme... for now at least. EDIT 2: And if you do count battle facility Pokémon, the result becomes... interesting to say the least. You see, all battle facilities except both Battle Factories have a level cap of 50. However, you can fight Trainers with level 100s in the Battle Factories (the ones in Emerald, Platinum, and HGSS). Of the Pokémon that are allowed in (and thus can be rental Pokémon and used by Trainers), Slaking's BST is the highest, at 670. Hence, if you fight a Trainer that ends up having a level 100 Slaking, it's strength score is 67000. That's even higher than the level 80 Arceus discussed in the video.
(Separate reply because my other one's getting crazy-long now) I think I found one that surpasses BDSP Cynthia, but it's a bit debatable. In USUM, Giovanni uses a level 70 Mega Mewtwo X (in US) or Y (in UM), both of which have BSTs of 780, giving them a strength score on 54600. I know Mikey said he doesn't count Mega Evos in this video, but Trainer ones are different, as they immediately Mega Evolve them before you attack it or it attacks. For instance, in this case, damage would never be calculated with regular Mewtwo's stats (and hence its base stats), but rather with Mega Mewtwo's. In any case, if Mega Evolution isn't counted, the highest strength score would still go to BDSP Cynthia's level 88 Garchomp.
Well, you can encounter Arceus in gen 4 without receiving the event; however, it can only be done in diamond and pearl. Retire (a poketuber) discovered some glitches that can allow the player to encounter Arceus when entering the void. So technically Arceus would be the strongest in diamond and pearl
Updates: SwSh: Level 100 Regigigas in the Crown Tundra (67,000, also taking the title of the highest strength score) BDSP: Level 80 Arceus in the Hall of Origin (57,600; it IS legitimately obtainable this time, if you have save data from Legends Arceus that has obtained Arceus) PLA: Level 75 Arceus (54,000)
Would love to see a super comprehensive list of "Strongest pokémon in each game" but instead of just base stat total and level determining this you could - and bear with me - take into account all bugs, exploits, glitches, and themes of each region as well as the learnsets of each pokémon. This would be waaaaaaaay more in depth with exponentially more research involved, but also far more interesting I think
This “strength score” seems both gimmicky and not representative of the actual value of a pokemon in a battle. Multiplying by levels just skews your results towards pokemon you can receive at level 100, while you could just as well train a competitively better pokemon to that level and it would be stronger. Seems to me that you traded in one boring metric (base stat total) for a different boring metric, neither of which is reflective of the “best” pokemon in a game. This seems like an exercise in mucking around with numbers, which is fine and well and I found it somewhat interesting-but not as it was advertised, as discussing the “strongest” pokemon of each game. I would’ve preferred actual analysis of strategy, potentially including discussion of stuff like typing, movesets, stats, and what opponents you face in the game, but I guess that could just be me. And yes, it would be subjective based on what sorts of strategies you prefer, but what’s so bad about that? If you want to avoid always selecting the pokemon with the highest base stats, you can omit legendaries from the analysis. Again, would just like to say that this video was reasonably interesting-i watched all of it-i just dont think it’s a very accurate metric of “strongest pokemon”
@@JJ-gl9mn But you can't just "pick up" one of these lvl 100 trade pokemon, you have to spend hours training a very specific pokemon in exchange. All he did here was create a fluff formula that equates to "Pokemon at drastically higher levels are stronger than low level pokemon with high base stats"
Feel like it was a missed not opportunity not to include type effectiveness in this. Stats ÷ weaknesses × strengths × level acquired. (Skip division if 0) So a gen 1 MewTwo would be 680 ÷1 × 2 × 70 = 95,200 When accounting for it's bugged lack of weakness to ghost A regular Mewtwo meanwhile would be 680 ÷ 3 × 2 × 70 = 31,733.33 recurring Think this would allow you to touch upon battle in a fun way without having to dive into move pools
Isn’t mewtwo’s bst in gen 1 technically 744 since it’s sp attack and sp def are combined as one special stat, effectively meaning mewtwo’s special defense in gen 1 is actually 154 rather than 90. As for electrode’s bst, it remains the same since it’s current sp attack and sp defense stats are the same. So Mewtwo is still the strongest (52080).
I’m working on a similar video idea, though it’s much more involved. I’m making massive spreadsheets quantifying how well every fully-evolved Pokemon available naturally in a region matches up to every mandatory Trainer’s Pokémon in the game. It’s a ton of work, but I’m excited to share the results on my channel once it’s fully finished!
That means there are 2 in-game NPC's in the series that will trade a Steelix to you; the other is someone in Cylliage City (the place with the Rock gym) in Pokémon X and Y.
I remember getting that Ho-Oh in Colosseum just to complete the National Dex in Diamond because without the Navel Rock event this was the only way to obtain it before HG/SS came out. Probably took me 60 - 80 hours, crazy times.
Ar-key-us because In every Pokedex book a.k.a La holy texts which is canon it says word for word "pronunciation: Ar-key-us " soooooo conflicting evidence and I'm sure at least one of my books were made before and def after it says as read sooooo yeah I rest my case
Gamer_does_ Art no he's right you catch ho oh in gold first at 40 then post game lugia at 70 and in silver you catch lugia at 40 and ho oh at 70 post game
Lugia/Ho-oh, and arceus should not count imo. Yes, you have to battle and catch them, but its impossible to even get the opportunity without the mystery gift item. Plus, arceus needs hacking/glitches to even have a chance, so it should automatically be disqualified. But that's just my way of seeing it.
@@howmanysubscanigetwithabso8259 look up RETIRE TH-cam channel and It will show you the glitch called void glitch you have to do the slow bike tweak in jubilife city
@@Jonlyboy "it will show you the glitch" that still means it should not count. Also, darkrai/Shaymin are either not counted on the video or are not the strongest.
Been going through some of your backlog, because it’s good background noise while I’m doing house work, and after listening to this I wondered who had the highest strength score in Sword and Shield since this video predates the games and it’s DLC and I found something interesting and I’m sorry if it’s already been pointed out. There is a special raid den in the Crown Tundra’s Giants Bed area that doesn’t appear to do anything at first glance however if you go to it with all 5 of the different Regis in your party then you get to participate in a braid battle against a level 100 Regigigas. Regigigas has a BST of 670 and therefor a strength score of 67,000. Not only do I believe that this is the strongest one in Sword and Shield but I believe, unless I’m just missing something big, that makes it the Pokémon with the highest Strength Score in the series and by quite a large amount. I got my info from Serebii so if I got something wrong I blame them.
on the thumbnail, Michel "Oh mewtwo is the strongest of that game. oh rayquaza is the strongest of that game. hmm what's the next one? oh it's a magicarp?"
As someone who played the 1st gen nonstop, enjoyed everything including the films and cartoons, gotta say im quite happy mew two is holding his own and being in the mix still :)
@@Amelia4111 it was just a small mistake, it’s not THAT big of a deal. I get that random things like that can be somewhat bothersome, but I don’t think it warrants that much of a reaction

While Ho-Oh and Lugia rely on the mystery gift item in Emerald, you still technically get them through normal means (battling and catching them). At some point at least the ticket was legitimately available at some point (now though, yes you would have to hack the game) whereas the Azure Flute never was available. Imo, Lugia and Ho-Oh count, but Acreus does NOT simply because of that.
For pokemon sword and shield main game the strongest Pokémon is the level 70 Zacian/Zamazenta, with a strength score of 48300. With DLC the strongest pokemon is Calyrex, at level 80 and have a strength score of 57600. I guess.
For fellow Final Fantasy fellows (wooh…) These guys can be referred to as ULTIMA weapons. That name is badass, huh? For true fans, a better name is ULTIMA BUSTER!
Michael, in pokemon red and blue you can manipulate the cinnabar island glitch to capture level 128 pokemon from the last wild area that you encountered a pokemon. I had several hypnos that bodied Mewtwo.
I think you forgot about the duplication glitch in red and blue, I once caught a level 100 snorlax while surfing on the east side shoreline on Cinnabar Island and I think I also caught a level 100 gyarados there once too on a different paly through of the game

In Pal Park, you have a menu option that can be used to leave early. The game sets the flag giving you that option upon entering, however, it is never removed because the devs never expected you to leave the way you did. Once in the hall of origin, select that option in your menu, and arceus will appear. This works because the event that would trigger its appearance was, for whatever reason, copied over to the same slot that using that flag activates. Since, for all the game knows, you obtained a legitimate one, it will not be detected by any anti-cheat measures.

hi michael, i’m a new subscriber, but i have not regretted subbing. thank you so much
Actually, the strongest Pokemon you can catch in R/B is a level 150 Snorlax you obtain through the Old Man glitch.
Since it's Lv 150 x its base stat of 495, it comes out to a total of 74,250.
i think glitch doesnt count
@@arkandash6610 hes including all stupid pokemon here why not glitched pokemon too
Clown level glitches don't count
I'd be interested in seeing a compilation of the strongest and weakest Trainer Pokemon in each game.
Ooh good idea! I assume it would obviously not count battle facility Pokémon.
And I think the highest of them all would be Cynthia's level 88 Garchomp in BDSP, with a strength score of 52800.
As for the weakest of them all it would probably be one of the early-route Trainers?
EDIT: Wait, I might've found a higher one. In SwSh, Hop uses a level 70 Zacian and Zamazenta in some of his battles, which are in their Crowned Sword and Crowned Shield forms due to holding the proper items. Doing the calculations (720 BST*level 70), their strength score comes out to 50400... which still isn't higher than Cynthia's. She still remains supreme... for now at least.
EDIT 2: And if you do count battle facility Pokémon, the result becomes... interesting to say the least. You see, all battle facilities except both Battle Factories have a level cap of 50. However, you can fight Trainers with level 100s in the Battle Factories (the ones in Emerald, Platinum, and HGSS). Of the Pokémon that are allowed in (and thus can be rental Pokémon and used by Trainers), Slaking's BST is the highest, at 670. Hence, if you fight a Trainer that ends up having a level 100 Slaking, it's strength score is 67000. That's even higher than the level 80 Arceus discussed in the video.
(Separate reply because my other one's getting crazy-long now)
I think I found one that surpasses BDSP Cynthia, but it's a bit debatable. In USUM, Giovanni uses a level 70 Mega Mewtwo X (in US) or Y (in UM), both of which have BSTs of 780, giving them a strength score on 54600. I know Mikey said he doesn't count Mega Evos in this video, but Trainer ones are different, as they immediately Mega Evolve them before you attack it or it attacks. For instance, in this case, damage would never be calculated with regular Mewtwo's stats (and hence its base stats), but rather with Mega Mewtwo's. In any case, if Mega Evolution isn't counted, the highest strength score would still go to BDSP Cynthia's level 88 Garchomp.
Well, this whole thing felt like a one huge cop out.
?????
How so
@@kylecampbell565 he just proves if you train Pokemon to level 100 and trade them then you can beat legendary pokemon untrained.
Well, you can encounter Arceus in gen 4 without receiving the event; however, it can only be done in diamond and pearl. Retire (a poketuber) discovered some glitches that can allow the player to encounter Arceus when entering the void. So technically Arceus would be the strongest in diamond and pearl
Its a glitch tho, does it count?
there is also the little bug with which you can get every event planed pokemon and item for the games
ITS ARKOOS
@@agareverie Well i guess you can choose yourself does it count. But in the video he said you can't battle it without hacking, which is false
@@Achiletos How?

Then who's the Raditz of Pokémon?
@@goldenhydreigon4727 Larvatar...?
11:58 but that event was never released, so you can't legitimately obtain Arceus without being given it directly through an event.
There's a glitch you can exploit in Japanese only versions of Platinum so yes you can actually obtain Arceus in game without the item.
ARKOOS
Void time
He says it in the video though

I feel that this video is one giant Dragon Ball reference!
The 'Strength Score' feels so much like DBZs 'Power Levels'.
I am not the only one that thought that
I see it more like the seven deadly sins’s power level system
The namek saga or sayen but frieza snow up better be 1 million unit power fight
Updates:
SwSh: Level 100 Regigigas in the Crown Tundra (67,000, also taking the title of the highest strength score)
BDSP: Level 80 Arceus in the Hall of Origin (57,600; it IS legitimately obtainable this time, if you have save data from Legends Arceus that has obtained Arceus)
PLA: Level 75 Arceus (54,000)
When your a ten year old. Trying to become a great Pokémon trainer. And you catch a FRICKING GOD!
Would love to see a super comprehensive list of "Strongest pokémon in each game" but instead of just base stat total and level determining this you could - and bear with me - take into account all bugs, exploits, glitches, and themes of each region as well as the learnsets of each pokémon. This would be waaaaaaaay more in depth with exponentially more research involved, but also far more interesting I think
11:26
I see you checking his powerlevel.... I mean strength score.
Thank you, Mikey, for making great content! We *REALLY* appreciate it and you.
This “strength score” seems both gimmicky and not representative of the actual value of a pokemon in a battle. Multiplying by levels just skews your results towards pokemon you can receive at level 100, while you could just as well train a competitively better pokemon to that level and it would be stronger. Seems to me that you traded in one boring metric (base stat total) for a different boring metric, neither of which is reflective of the “best” pokemon in a game.
This seems like an exercise in mucking around with numbers, which is fine and well and I found it somewhat interesting-but not as it was advertised, as discussing the “strongest” pokemon of each game. I would’ve preferred actual analysis of strategy, potentially including discussion of stuff like typing, movesets, stats, and what opponents you face in the game, but I guess that could just be me. And yes, it would be subjective based on what sorts of strategies you prefer, but what’s so bad about that? If you want to avoid always selecting the pokemon with the highest base stats, you can omit legendaries from the analysis.
Again, would just like to say that this video was reasonably interesting-i watched all of it-i just dont think it’s a very accurate metric of “strongest pokemon”
Pretty sure most poketubers are in this for the insanely dedicated audience. If you know what I mean. I completely agree with your comment though.
I think the point is just what pokemon can you pickup and it instantly be powerful
@@JJ-gl9mn But you can't just "pick up" one of these lvl 100 trade pokemon, you have to spend hours training a very specific pokemon in exchange. All he did here was create a fluff formula that equates to "Pokemon at drastically higher levels are stronger than low level pokemon with high base stats"
Nathanyel Haney fair enough lol, i catch your drift
Well said
Feel like it was a missed not opportunity not to include type effectiveness in this.
Stats ÷ weaknesses × strengths × level acquired.
(Skip division if 0)
So a gen 1 MewTwo would be
680 ÷1 × 2 × 70 = 95,200
When accounting for it's bugged lack of weakness to ghost
A regular Mewtwo meanwhile would be
680 ÷ 3 × 2 × 70 = 31,733.33 recurring
Think this would allow you to touch upon battle in a fun way without having to dive into move pools
Isn’t mewtwo’s bst in gen 1 technically 744 since it’s sp attack and sp def are combined as one special stat, effectively meaning mewtwo’s special defense in gen 1 is actually 154 rather than 90. As for electrode’s bst, it remains the same since it’s current sp attack and sp defense stats are the same. So Mewtwo is still the strongest (52080).
I just got the azure flute last from the mystery gift last week.
"Hacking" pff
17:35 Since when you get Rayquaza in ORAS it can Mega Evolve (From my memory) So Mega Rayquaza at Level 70 has a score of 54,600.
Pretty sure you don’t catch it in it’s Mega Form, and Mikey said “The form you catch it in”
I noticed that this video has non auto-generated subtitles now.
I love your Pokemon videos! Thanks for sharing them with us!
I’m working on a similar video idea, though it’s much more involved. I’m making massive spreadsheets quantifying how well every fully-evolved Pokemon available naturally in a region matches up to every mandatory Trainer’s Pokémon in the game. It’s a ton of work, but I’m excited to share the results on my channel once it’s fully finished!

I know you corrected yourself, but "all 1 trainers" did make me laugh
Its great seeing this years later and seeing you close to 2mil! Can't wait for that milestone
14:32 wait jasmine can trade you a steelix 😨 I actually never knew about that trade
You can even catch it.
@@Jrpg_guy I know in the gen 4 games you can caught wild steelixis but I never knew jasmine trades you a steelix in hgss
@@oresti9271 all gymleader can trade i think. Maybe not all but more than jasmine, for sure.
@@Jrpg_guy I also didn't know that
That means there are 2 in-game NPC's in the series that will trade a Steelix to you; the other is someone in Cylliage City (the place with the Rock gym) in Pokémon X and Y.
Level 70 Groudon and Kyogre are also available in Emerald’s postgame! Hence it would be a 5-way tie!
groudon and kyogre have BST of 670 not 680 making them a bit weaker
I'm pretty sure u can fight a level 70 rayquaza if u have both kyogre and groudon in either hg or ss so maybe a three way tie
I remember getting that Ho-Oh in Colosseum just to complete the National Dex in Diamond because without the Navel Rock event this was the only way to obtain it before HG/SS came out. Probably took me 60 - 80 hours, crazy times.

Lugia/Ho-oh, and arceus should not count imo. Yes, you have to battle and catch them, but its impossible to even get the opportunity without the mystery gift item. Plus, arceus needs hacking/glitches to even have a chance, so it should automatically be disqualified. But that's just my way of seeing it.
You can catch Arcueus legit I you watch a RETIRE video it will show you hiw
@@Jonlyboy well, ive searched it up, and the only possible way includes some kind of minor glitch.

@@Jonlyboy "it will show you the glitch" that still means it should not count. Also, darkrai/Shaymin are either not counted on the video or are not the strongest.
Thx for that
Ur welcome I love watching you
Been going through some of your backlog, because it’s good background noise while I’m doing house work, and after listening to this I wondered who had the highest strength score in Sword and Shield since this video predates the games and it’s DLC and I found something interesting and I’m sorry if it’s already been pointed out.
There is a special raid den in the Crown Tundra’s Giants Bed area that doesn’t appear to do anything at first glance however if you go to it with all 5 of the different Regis in your party then you get to participate in a braid battle against a level 100 Regigigas. Regigigas has a BST of 670 and therefor a strength score of 67,000. Not only do I believe that this is the strongest one in Sword and Shield but I believe, unless I’m just missing something big, that makes it the Pokémon with the highest Strength Score in the series and by quite a large amount. I got my info from Serebii so if I got something wrong I blame them.
this feels like a long math lesson
on the thumbnail, Michel "Oh mewtwo is the strongest of that game. oh rayquaza is the strongest of that game. hmm what's the next one? oh it's a magicarp?"
Micheal you made a mistake in gen 1 3:15 as you said mewtwo was 680 it was actually 744 because of special stat so the strenght of mewtwo would be 52k
He explains that
As someone who played the 1st gen nonstop, enjoyed everything including the films and cartoons, gotta say im quite happy mew two is holding his own and being in the mix still :)

While Ho-Oh and Lugia rely on the mystery gift item in Emerald, you still technically get them through normal means (battling and catching them). At some point at least the ticket was legitimately available at some point (now though, yes you would have to hack the game) whereas the Azure Flute never was available. Imo, Lugia and Ho-Oh count, but Acreus does NOT simply because of that.
Since in Emerald you have to use mystery gift to get Lugia and Ho-Oh, they shouldn't count
but they're IN the game. navel rock is there, it's a place
Can also catch Groudon and kyogre at level 70 in the post game

Michael, in pokemon red and blue you can manipulate the cinnabar island glitch to capture level 128 pokemon from the last wild area that you encountered a pokemon. I had several hypnos that bodied Mewtwo.

Rusty: Hehehe
19:23 Did he just try to do the woah?
I think you forgot about the duplication glitch in red and blue, I once caught a level 100 snorlax while surfing on the east side shoreline on Cinnabar Island and I think I also caught a level 100 gyarados there once too on a different paly through of the game
You could get an almost invincible rhydon in gen one.
If you taught it horn drill and used X accuracy, it would never miss. you also needed X speed, sadly.
