Yeah the gen 4 eeveelution movesets kinda sucked. I mean, flareon gets fire fang at 44, leafeon gets leaf blade at 70 something, and glaceon get ice beam at 70 something as well.
@@kolskor0293 Umbreon and Sylveon are the ones with privilage. Umbreon gets various dark attacks (Feint Attack, Pursuit and Bite) and Sylveon does aswell (Drain Kiss, Dazzling Gleam and Moonblast; Swift and Hyper Beam with Pixilate)
Now I know I am late, but the reason the mismagius lived at 12:04 was because the first flame wheel was used when monferno was in blaze(monferno had total 84 hp, 1/3 that is 28 and he was at 18). Blaze gave a 50% boost to the flame wheel the first time. But, the second time, he was above 1/3rd hp(30>28) and hence flame wheel didn't kill.
Your Monferno had blaze active when you hit Fantina’s Mismagias the first flame wheel. But since you healed Monferno up blaze wasn’t active and that’s why it did less damage.
Doesn't blaze come into effect when the pokemon is less than half? If so shouldn't it have kicked in the second time too? Or is it less than a third of it's health?
"Can you beat Pokemon Platinum without catching ANY pokemon" My 5 year old self with a level 97 infernape before first elite 4 clear: Yes... Yes it is...
Imagine doing this challenge in Diamond or Pearl. Your team would be Empoleon, Rampardos/Bastiodon, Blissey and Lucario. If your opponent had a fighting type move (or even Earthquake because Blissey's defense is awful) you'd be screwed.
Do you know what is weird. Cyrus, the team galactic boss, has a line that talks about how giving your pokémon compassion and friendship is a waste. But, the dudes got a crobat that literally evolves using friendship.
Knows a lot about Pokemon? Yeah some pokemon. But the dude showed his memory is a joke 🤣 not joking in his video when he tries to name the pokemon by their sound.
Imagine how freezing mad professor rowan must be. He gives you one of his precious starters, then e sends you out on this journey to CATCH all pokemon,and you never even throw a pokeball.
At least you save 15% or more on car insurance with Geico. Replace car insurance with Potions, and with Geico with because you still have a lot of money by not buying 100 Ultra Balls and then realizing that you should have bought them in groups of 10 to get all the Premiere Balls. And I think I misspelled premeire. Well, its better than having auto _cucumber_ on.
I remember my first playthrough in Platinum. I went all the way through until meeting Cynthia's Garchomp at the very end. I sent in my Floatzel, who could not outspeed, but I felt confident it would OHKO the Garchomp with ice punch, as it was already hurt. Garchomp went for the Dragon Rush, which Floatzel thankfully survived. I inwardly prepared for victory, but then stopped when i saw two words suddenly pop up. Floatzel flinched! Garchomp then swept through the rest of my team. It was a sad day.
My first platinum team had a weavile which I planned to use for garchomp and use ice punch. And then, when it used ice punch on it, the unthinkable happened. It lived. It then crit one shot with earthquake and swept through my entire team.
@@richdude2985 I also had a Weavile on my team, only it had Ice Beam instead of Ice Punch, as I forgot that it was a Physical Attacker, not a Special one. After teaching it Ice Punch, and making it hold the Nevermelt Ice, I managed to OHKO her Garchomp.
It was my first ever team, and the only pokemon I had left was a half dead Lucario, he somehow lived and hit 2 crit drain punches. Due to that luck I've never had a full odds random shiny
When I played through platinum I accidentally growl and it switched another Pokémon and it switches frosslass and I beat it and abomasnow comes out lol
I just stumbled upon this channel, but I appreciate that the playthroughs I've seen so far aren't just "lmao I min maxed my starter in the beginning, bought 5000 Max Potions, and beat the game" like there's actually a strategy, I love that
I had no difficulties either and I only brought four Pokémon to the league, none of which were overleveled. Wallace gave me more grief than Cynthia tbh.
I had literally no trouble with cynthia and the irony here is that I had trouble with the unova league for the first black and white games.....OF ALL GAMES I HAD TROUBLE WITH THOSE TWO >:|
Only if it's a legitimate copy of the game. If it's an emulator, then you can't transfer the shiny anywhere, it's stuck in that one emulator run forever. I did kinda try a no-catching challenge in Shining Pearl, although it was more meant as a sort of "speedrun", as I had already cleared Brilliant Diamond and need Palkia at some point when I wanna catch Arceus, so therefore I sped through SP. And since it was more of a speedrun than anything, I did use the gift Jirachi and Mew to speed things up, as well as my starter Infernape, and the gifts Blissey and Lucario. I decided not to use a fossil Bastiodon coz it would take too long to find (even tho I probably did it already) but also because Bastiodon is simply too weak offensively for me to bother with it. While I was in Iron Island, searching for useful items, not sure if before or after getting the Riolu egg, I ran into a Shiny Golbat which was the ONLY Pokémon other than Palkia that I caught (Palkia with Master Ball and never used). I named her Barbara, after Batgirl. And she made it onto my team, so HALF my team was made up of pink Pokémon (Mew, Blissey and shiny Crobat). I won against the Elite 4 first try, although with a level 70 Blissey and a level 69 shiny Crobat (nice) and at least level 66 everything else. On my first run of BD, which was my first Hardcore Nuzlocke as well, I wiped the first time against Cynthia, then beat her the second try (just resetting before fighting the E4, using the same team and strategy but with different RNG) with 2 Pokémon remaining, my Luxray at red HP, and my Roserade who took out her Garchomp from a third, after living a hit from it, maybe Dragon Claw (or whatever dragon move it has) or maybe Earthquake, I don't really remember, but I still love that my Roserade took out Cynthia's Garchomp.
I realized that in Sunyshore City, the gym leader starts the battle with Jolteon. Imagine the Jolteon popping out of the Pokeball, landing and then saying: "Hi everyone. It's a pleasure to be here on your show today".

@@StarSpark3071 Of course it's in the one goddamn game where I can't breed them, but it's still a strange pattern. Also, that third playthrough I mentioned is a shiny-only playthrough, in which I recently caught my 5th shiny (my team is Victreebel, Charizard, Golbat, Gyarados, and Weezing, in the order they were caught)
I seem to remember one of those two having a Gyarados, something that Mikey consistently struggles against in his playthroughs, and the route is in permanent rain. That single trainer would have given Mikey issues even if it were 1v1.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who had such a hard time with Mismagius. On my most recent playthrough I lost to Fantina 4 times in a row, then after that I had a full team with only Bitchmagius left, and it proceeded to bend my entire team down and critical hit them all with shadow ball killing everyone. That marks Bitchmagius's spot as one of my least favorite pokemon ever.
Nah I had the a probelm on the first one but still manage to make it through. I used garaydos bite to sweep her other pokemon and did a good chunk to her mismagius. My garaydos faints and I switch in luxray because he has bite but she confuses me and i hurt myself multiple times and didnt get a bit through if luxray didnt hit it self i would win pretty easy, i switch in staraptor to do a little ompf of dmg but didnt get anything through. I only finished her off with a hurt monferno. Yeah lots of people have problems with her. All of my pokemon were lvl 27 ok.
I'm actually doing a nuzlocke of Let's Go, and it sucks. I've lost to Brock and had to restart 4 times now since I'm not using healing items, only pokemon centres
@@Panthers8912 Ah but not truly, because 5 HMs are required to get through the victory road. So ONLY a starter isn't actually possible. The challenge is figuring out the HM situation and setting up the team is the best way with such limited options.
@@MandJTV The hardest game to do this challenge in would be Ruby, and Saphire because the only gift Pokemon Available before the Elite 4 are your starter Wynaut, and Castform.
I actually dont think a lvl 100 castform could solo the elite 4 in gen 4, id imagine garchomp would still be faster than castform and would certainly one shot it especially if its diamond and pearl. I can see it being possible for gen 5 6 and 7 but gen 3 and 4 have too good of an elite 4

Can you beat Pokémon Platinum without catching any Pokémon? Me: Hey Joe, may I borrow your level 100 Arceus for a playthrough? Joe: Who the heck are you?
@ actually no it isnt, someone did a challenge where they only used their starter, it was mudkip (they didnt evolve it either) because he can learn all of the HMS needed in the game, and he used the gift castform that you get for the double battle and had castform attack his mudkip and then just shoved it back in the box. This was done in emerald though.
Its my idea that if he got shieldon he would have named him "Moses" beacause his head looks like one of the tablets that moses used to write the 10 rules.
When he was digging for fossils and shards he must've found at least one heart scale. Then he could've had aura sphere on his Togekiss and extreme speed/Bone rush for the electric gym on lucario. I know this because I did it.
Actually Assurance doubles in power when the target has taken damage in the same turn, not the user. It works if the target uses a recoil move or is a Ghost type and used Curse.
Snorlax: So..you thought you had all the pieces right where you wanted! Ludachrist: I have so many moves I have yet to be play! Snorlax: You should’ve stayed buried! *goes for hyperbeam*
Fun fact: Craniados' pokedex entry states that because its skull is so tough, its brain never has time to grow. So not too wise I'm afraid. Great video btw, would love to see more challenges like this :)
His heart gold video inspired me to do a shield one without catching Pokemon (ones that you are forced to are obviously an exception, and dlc is included) Currently on my way to the first gym with a grooky, eevee, pikachu, alolan sandshrew, and alolan meowth
The answer to this one is pretty straightforward: I mean speed runners do this all the time. It's literally one of the fastest ways to beat the game anyway lol.
Bruh I just noticed I swear when I hopped on my save file for platinum I had a lvl 100 torterra and every single other Pokémon I had were under level 40 and I beat the game with only my starter. I can barely have the patience to make my starter pass lvl 70 in any game wtf did I do as a kid😔
PsychoPenguin Cultist yes but I’m currently trying to fill the Pokedex. I got very lucky because I found out one of my friends has Sword so I can trade w/ him

On my most recent playthrough I lost to Fantina 4 times in a row, then after that I had a full team with only Bitchmagius left, and it proceeded to bend my entire team down and critical hit them all with shadow ball killing everyone. That marks Bitchmagius's spot as one of my least favorite pokemon ever.
Nah I had the a probelm on the first one but still manage to make it through. I used garaydos bite to sweep her other pokemon and did a good chunk to her mismagius. My garaydos faints and I switch in luxray because he has bite but she confuses me and i hurt myself multiple times and didnt get a bit through if luxray didnt hit it self i would win pretty easy, i switch in staraptor to do a little ompf of dmg but didnt get anything through. I only finished her off with a hurt monferno. Yeah lots of people have problems with her. All of my pokemon were lvl 27 ok.
I lost twice then the platform I played it on disappeared then it reappeared *IMAGINE MY FRUSTRATION*

The reality is: You can beat Every pokémon game without any catch
Let's Go: Are you sure about that?
Oh yea... The starter is wild caught at the start.
Big Brain Indeed Sir
in black&white and x&y you have to catch the legendary pokemon
Should've been, "Are you challenging me?".

not too difficult when the best Pokemon in the game are gifts.
Yup
This isn’t even a challenge lol. You can easily beat any game with just the starter
@@Panthers8912 Ah but not truly, because 5 HMs are required to get through the victory road. So ONLY a starter isn't actually possible. The challenge is figuring out the HM situation and setting up the team is the best way with such limited options.
@@MandJTV The hardest game to do this challenge in would be Ruby, and Saphire because the only gift Pokemon Available before the Elite 4 are your starter Wynaut, and Castform.

Okay, here's a challenge. Can you beat any Gen 3 or later game... With just a Castform?
Kaze Kami I would love to see that!!
Great idea
I actually dont think a lvl 100 castform could solo the elite 4 in gen 4, id imagine garchomp would still be faster than castform and would certainly one shot it especially if its diamond and pearl. I can see it being possible for gen 5 6 and 7 but gen 3 and 4 have too good of an elite 4

Answer: Yes. People use just their starter all the time, time is easier.
@ fainted HM slaves ftw
I did it for emerald with swampert
You have 69 likes
Leafgreen is beaten in 2hours with only blastoise here on the tube
@ actually no it isnt, someone did a challenge where they only used their starter, it was mudkip (they didnt evolve it either) because he can learn all of the HMS needed in the game, and he used the gift castform that you get for the double battle and had castform attack his mudkip and then just shoved it back in the box. This was done in emerald though.
Its my idea that if he got shieldon he would have named him "Moses" beacause his head looks like one of the tablets that moses used to write the 10 rules.
The 10 commandments sound so much less impressive when you phrase them as the 10 rules.
Fun fact, there were originally 15 commandments but then Moses dropped one of the tablets
You should have named the Crainados “Abel” because rock head
