Imagine the Gym Leaders getting together and all sharing the same story about some random kid busting out the lord creator of golems and continents for the sole purpose of just getting badges.
I just imagine something like this happening with his runs with a weaker Pokemon. "You all lost to a guy using one Munchlax. I think we need to move your evaluations up by a few months."

The easy victory against Ghetsis is extra amusing since it's theorized that Ghetsis had built his team around taking down N, but wasn't prepared to deal with the player character. And that's exactly what happened here, with a lead that negates the one weakness of Regigigas and nothing that can really handle it. Well, despite how things have gone for Mah Dry Bread, I really appreciate him still pushing this video out. Absolutely nobody would blame him for wanting to take a break, but he soldiers on. Salutes.
These Regigigas runs are a lot of fun. They tend to fall into the same category as a lot of fallout and elder scrolls runs. You know going in its possible, the question is more what it will take to get there. Oblivion with only illusion? Yeah, its possible but it'll be a slog!
On our way through, I took the plume fossil. 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.

It would be really cool to see you do Gen 7 sometime but I'm not sure how much of a challenge run it would be considering there's no 'gyms' in the traditional sense.
Hey, sorry to hear about the whole thing with Fatima. Glad it wasn't overblown and the two of you are still supportive of each other. As usual, great Gen 5 run! Ooh, and you are considering Gen 6 runs? Maybe we'll see a No New Moves run in Pokémon X soon?
I always approve of b2w2 runs in general. Game doesn't get enough screentime. I always found em more engaging than even black and white 1 overall harder fights, in many ways team plasma also felt more threatening. Like ghetsis no longer wants to subtlety take over, he takes the gloves off builds a battleship and starts laying waste to cities, stakes just feel higher, but maybe that is just me
It amazes me that after all this time with an audience how grounded and genuine you still are. I hope things go well for you moving forward from the big life changes happening
I never comment, it's just something I don't do as I usually don't feel close to anyone I follow, but I've been here lurking for 7+ years now. As someone who has been here silently that long, I felt it right that I should at least wish you the best in the future. Really sorry to hear about the news, but I'm glad there's no animosity. I've been through it, not always as clean. Thank you MahDryBread.
One series that could be fun is beating each gen (dealers choice for which version) with its box art legendary. I realize it would be more of a speed challenge than anything but could still be fun.
I think that the reason why the 8th gym leader always seems easy is because at the point that you get there you already have a strong team thats got you through everything leading up to it, at least in normal playthroughs
I wonder what fossil MDB will take? Actually, he almost never takes the fossil in BW runs since you have to go back for it so he probably won't take it. Though if he did I think he'd take the Archen fossil, way better than Tirtouga.
I don't know why, but I somehow expected to hear that news. I'm glad you're doing well, but it is sad to hear. It was always so cute hearing you talk about your relationship over the years. Good luck to both of you in your futures.
Hope you're doing okay 💛 I'm glad it was amicable and that you seem like you're doing okay. Hopefully having such a supportive community will make it easier too! The way you spoke about it confirms you are a very good person who deserves good things
Sorry to hear about the break up but I’m glad you are doing ok! It’s always better when it’s mutual but never easy! Keep up the great work and I hope to catch a few streams
“Who’s even a hard 8th gym leader?” Me, pausing to think for a bit: “Clair.” MDB, after unpausing: “Clair.” Yeah. I’d love to see them do more dragon gym leaders, they give a good challenge.
Juan in Emerald has a Kingdra that gives some challenge players grief. I've seen multiple Nuzlockers bemoaning him, and with Double Team, I don't blame them. =P
Genuinely, MDB, you’ll always be an inspiration to me. I am happy to hear you’re doing better this week after hearing the news of your separation. We love you, man. 💜
Dumb Challenge: "Can you beat Pokèmon backwards?" Start at the champion with a champion ready team, level down instead of up, uncatch your team, end at the starting town and return your starter.
Wallace and Juan in Gen III can put a decent fight too, especially Juan's Kingdra with its Double Team spam... ugh. But overall, the 8th gym is usually not a problem because of the levels and available Pokémon you should have by then.
Regigigas always makes for bananas runs. Gen 6 would be hilarious, everyone thinks it’s super easy but the enemy Pokémon are actually the highest level in the series. Glad to see you’re doing alright, it’ll be cool to see more streams.
To me, there are two things that make the last gym tends to be relatively easy, 1st is move variety. You have a lot more coverage in the late game. For example, Rattata will struggle in the Kanto early game against Brock's Onix because it's stuck using normal moves, but will be able to get rid of Giovanni's Rhyhorn or Rhydon with relative ease, with something like Bubblebeam, Blizzard or Ice Beam. Also, once you arrive at the last gym, you're typically the one with a level advantage, either because story reasons, like having to fight some evil team members, or you already had to grind before that to be able to beat another opponent, like Tate & Liza in Hoenn, for example. Taking a look at this run, Regigigas was lower level than the Gym's ace in the first attempt of the first 3 gyms, but the last gym, Regigigas had 14 levels ahead of it, which combined with effort values or stat experience, help compensate the fact that the pokémon in the late game have better base stats.
I'm sorry to hear about Fatima and you. I'm glad you're okay MDB. In the video you mentioned possibly doing gen 6 version of this challenge. Honestly I hope you consider doing gen 6 challenges in general. A gift pokemon one would be very interesting.
Mdb, ive watched you for years now. You've gone through so much in that time, i know you say your fine and i know that you'll be fine. Either way, take care of yourself, always know that people love what you do and appreciate you for your time in their lives. I wish you and Fatima all the best.
Hey MDB! Been watching since around 2012 or something (All the way back in the creepypasta days, youch, I feel old,) and I just wanted to say that I'm really happy you're doing alright. I'm really glad that your separation was amicable and please let Fatima know that all of us viewers wish her the absolute best. Also, while I haven't really been keeping up too much with your recent content over the past couple years since personally I'm not super big on Pokémon, I'm really proud of you for carving out a niche in that community! One more thing: if you end up doing more streaming, please upload the "I'm Streaming" videos again for those of us that don't really use twitch too often. I'd love to hop in chat when I have the time. Final question: when's the next Nancy Drew playthrough? I need to see the unholy trinity of you, Whattageek and Hailey subjected to the insanity of more games designed for pre-teen girls.
Black 2 and gen6 with only Regigigas would be awesome, looking forward to if/when you do those runs! Thanks for another great video, the Regigigas runs are great
Well, we actually just got a new one! The old one sold his business to the new one in December, so I'm still building my relationship with the new one.
Still waiting on the day he flights cythina in black or white. Shes pretty much the steven fight from gen 3 in emerald. Shes practically the end boss. Would love to see you battle her
Hey MDB, thank you for sharing the info with what happened in this episode. We know that things are gonna be alright, we still are gonna have your back. You’ve definitely made my days better, as you have many others. Keep being you, as you’ve got tons of people who appreciate you. You got this!
This looks like its going to be a good one !!! Watching it whilst working on my Pokémon videos cheers for the upload mate!!! Thanks for inspiring me to give TH-cam a go Having loads of Fun !!!
It's good to hear you're doing ok, so I figure it's best to just stay the course and continue like normal (no need to make a mountain out of a mole hill). So I'm going to continue with my usual suggestion of pokemon gold/silver with a single Murkrow
I think that in Gen 5 runs, you should try for the optional Cynthia fight, like how in GSC/HGSS you go for the Red fight, and in Emerald, you do Steven.
sorry about your separation, that must be rough. i'm glad you're doing ok, good luck to the both of you. would you ever consider a run with one of the original 3 regis? in gen 4 onwards they have other moves besides explosion as their starting moves lol.
Slow start could be easily boosted: instead of only halving the stats at the beginning a constant increasing of the stats could be added like „after round five every five rounds add to the stats“ (forgot which stats get halved 😅)
Great challenge. I'm sorry for what happen. But since its a mutual break up it shouldn't be to hurtful. But something will come up that will help out. Hope all stays well and hope you both have your chins up. Stay safe out there and enjoy y'alls week.
I know you usually skip post-game content that isn't in Jhoto but for this run I really hope you don't. I want to see this behemoth face Alder and Cynthia, please
The funny thing is imho Regigigas main problem is not even the ability. It is the movepool. With its amazing bulk it could be a great defensive pokemon if only it had ANY sort of support moves AT ALL. It can't heal, it can't support the team, it doesn't even get Protect. It could be a good wall that gets scary when you leave it on the field for too long, but it just utterly sucks as a wall due to its movepool too...
(10:42) Which fossil did you take? I hear hearts are good for Valentine's algorithm. (13:12) Starting in Gen. 5, Curse is able to hit through a Substitute, for some reason. It wasn't able to in Gens. 2, 3, and 4.
I love challenges where you're given a super strong Pokemon, honestly. But I would like to see the post-game one of these days. Regigigas is no-doubt strong enough to defeat Cynthia or Alder, and would've loved to see them in the Hall of Fame
for me it just feels kinda whiplashy some of that I think is because I fell behind on your videos, so I ended up getting everything with only a few nights of gap instead of weeks, but having two outros of how excited you were for her to be back, and then the next outro begins with "yeah so we talked about it and we're breaking up" just comes as the strangest rug pull (which I think would make for a great setup in a drama regardless of how non-drama the situation is) either way, I'm glad it's an amicable break. I totally get where you're coming from too. haven't had a 14 year relationship, but my best friend and I dated for 3 years around a decade ago so it makes perfect sense to still care about an ex as long as the circumstances hold up
It may have seemed sudden to you, but it didn't seem sudden to us from within the relationship. You have to keep in mind that you don't know all the details of a 14 year relationship just by listening to a few outros of a few videos. We have private lives that are long and complicated. We wouldn't be able to explain all the history and what goes into it even if we wanted to, and we don't want to. We shared that we broke up because a ton of people already knew both of us and would ask about her often, so we felt like the right thing to do was to let people know. That's all people really need to know, the rest can just be our private lives. This was a year ago now, we both moved on. I'm much happier in my new relationship.
@@MahDryBread oh yes, certainly. I was just sharing a perspective that I thought had some comedic value at my own expense upon rereading I realize that I left out context that allows for that humor to actually thrive, being that I use pokemon solo content as a sleep aid, so it ended up with me falling asleep one night as you were talking about getting voice recordings done up quick so you had time to spend with her, and then a few nights later as I'm just about to slip under I hear the news and suddenly I'm wide awake with a "wait what?" I also have adhd and autism so prone to oversharing and bad at considering how my words may be taken. I didn't mean for my words to come off as prying or argumentative. it seems I failed in this instance and I apologize for such. my intent was just idle musings that would be good for the algorithm, since I did hear about the plume fossil
Very sorry for you man, hope it's okay, and you're a golden man helping Fatima even though you're separated, take care man❤ P.S. might look silly but I even cried a little for you, if a person doesn't deserve this it's definitely you
Archen/Archeops could also be a fun run, its got pretty good stats but ALSO has a godawful ability in Defeatist, which cuts all stats in half once HP is half or below.
I know that in previous streams you’ve said that you have no form of schedule for your streams & that they’re quite sporadic, but are there any days or times that you’re more likely to stream? It’s always a gut punch to find out that I’ve just missed one by an hour or so.
Claire from Gen 2 can be hard if your team doesn’t have a Pokémon with a strong ice move. Otherwise, he is a cakewalk. Though her Kingdra is nothing to snuff at. If you can get passed her Dragonaires with most of your Pokémon, you can just brute force your way with strong power moves.
"Who is even a hard 8 gym leader?" Jaun in Emerald, Kingdra with Double Team and Rest is foul. A 'Clan' type of run would be interesting; just like how dragon tamers have non-dragon pokemon because they are part of the dragon egg group, pick an egg group and do a run with only those Pokemon. Or maybe a 'tutor' run, where you pick a certain move and only use Pokemon that can learn it.
13:15 dont quote me but im pretty sure this Golurk Has No Guard; so it ignores Substitute, along with any move that makes you normally untargetable (Fly, Dive, Dig etc.)
I once did a Porygon run in Pokemon Black a year and a half back. This wasn't the first pokemon challenge I did but I very rarely do pokemon challenges nowadays due to obvious health issues I've been suffering for the past four years. I never got though the post-game but I did beat the core of Pokemon Black with only one Porygon. Here's how the post-game went though. I mostly grinded on most of the post-game npc trainers until I was at a high enough level to try the post-game elite four. If I recall correctly the only member of the post-game elite four I could defeat was Shauntal the ghost trainer. The rest of the elite four I didn't come close to making it to their last pokemon. Again I never made it through the post-game but I did beat the core of Black with only one Porygon so I'm going to call that one of the few pokemon challenges I ever done. Most other Challenges I did in the past I either ended up failing or just simply gave up because they are mostly not worth my time. Maybe I'll come back to those and other challenges in the future if I can. Right now I'm focusing on gameplay on the remake of Super Mario RPG on the switch. In fact I'm actually kinda practicing for a speedrun if I ever be able to get the Super Suit and Attack Scarf. And that's my story.
In Regards to the outro: twitter.com/MahDryBread/status/1752588502439543219
Seriously though, I'll be fine! No one wants this to be some big thing.
Glad to hear it's all good, MDB! Us fans only want the best for you guys. 🙂
Hey MBD for future Black and White runs you should consider Cynthia as like a post game boss similar to how Red and Steven are in other games
14 years is a long time to spend with someone only for it to not continue. I'm glad that y'all decided amicably. Best wishes

Sorry to hear about you and Fatima. Though it sounds like you're both wanting to move on amiably
I like the idea that professor juniper just had a redgigigas and decided to just give it to some random kid as a starter pokemon.
Okay... Starter trainer needs an equally good set of training wheels... What's this things ability? Oh. Perfect~
Really sorry to hear about the news :/ You are a wonderful person and I'm sure you are going to be just fine! Take care man ❤️

It would be really cool to see you do Gen 7 sometime but I'm not sure how much of a challenge run it would be considering there's no 'gyms' in the traditional sense.
gen 7 has some of the toughest Pokemon games there would certainly be enough challenge
The Totem battles are pretty tough, and the other bosses aren't far behind. Gen 7 may give you plenty of options, but it does not lack challenge.
You say that like totem pokemon and the other bosses aren’t hard
I don't think the lack of gyms makes Gen 7 any more or less challenging. I wouldn't mind seeing a Gen 7 run. Hell I'd take a Gen 6 run too.

Yeah. I’d love to see them do more dragon gym leaders, they give a good challenge.

Pokémon run: Hydreigon line. Hard start, easy end when you finally get to Zweilous and Hydreigon.
Great challenge. I'm sorry for what happen. But since its a mutual break up it shouldn't be to hurtful. But something will come up that will help out. Hope all stays well and hope you both have your chins up. Stay safe out there and enjoy y'alls week.
22:03 Just avoid paying taxes. It's not that hard ;). As always though. Wonderful video!!!!
I know you usually skip post-game content that isn't in Jhoto but for this run I really hope you don't. I want to see this behemoth face Alder and Cynthia, please
The funny thing is imho Regigigas main problem is not even the ability. It is the movepool. With its amazing bulk it could be a great defensive pokemon if only it had ANY sort of support moves AT ALL. It can't heal, it can't support the team, it doesn't even get Protect. It could be a good wall that gets scary when you leave it on the field for too long, but it just utterly sucks as a wall due to its movepool too...
Glad to hear you are both doing well. Good luck to the both of you.
I'm so glad to see the plume fossil bit after someone mentioned it on the previous Gen 5 run!
Man, that's awful. That honestly sucks. It's good how you're holding yourself. But... God, i don't know what to say. I hope the best for you.
(10:42) Which fossil did you take? I hear hearts are good for Valentine's algorithm.
(13:12) Starting in Gen. 5, Curse is able to hit through a Substitute, for some reason. It wasn't able to in Gens. 2, 3, and 4.
Thanks! Love the content
I love challenges where you're given a super strong Pokemon, honestly.
But I would like to see the post-game one of these days. Regigigas is no-doubt strong enough to defeat Cynthia or Alder, and would've loved to see them in the Hall of Fame
for me it just feels kinda whiplashy
some of that I think is because I fell behind on your videos, so I ended up getting everything with only a few nights of gap instead of weeks, but having two outros of how excited you were for her to be back, and then the next outro begins with "yeah so we talked about it and we're breaking up" just comes as the strangest rug pull (which I think would make for a great setup in a drama regardless of how non-drama the situation is)
either way, I'm glad it's an amicable break. I totally get where you're coming from too. haven't had a 14 year relationship, but my best friend and I dated for 3 years around a decade ago so it makes perfect sense to still care about an ex as long as the circumstances hold up
It may have seemed sudden to you, but it didn't seem sudden to us from within the relationship. You have to keep in mind that you don't know all the details of a 14 year relationship just by listening to a few outros of a few videos. We have private lives that are long and complicated. We wouldn't be able to explain all the history and what goes into it even if we wanted to, and we don't want to.
We shared that we broke up because a ton of people already knew both of us and would ask about her often, so we felt like the right thing to do was to let people know. That's all people really need to know, the rest can just be our private lives. This was a year ago now, we both moved on. I'm much happier in my new relationship.

oh yes, certainly. I was just sharing a perspective that I thought had some comedic value at my own expense
upon rereading I realize that I left out context that allows for that humor to actually thrive, being that I use pokemon solo content as a sleep aid, so it ended up with me falling asleep one night as you were talking about getting voice recordings done up quick so you had time to spend with her, and then a few nights later as I'm just about to slip under I hear the news and suddenly I'm wide awake with a "wait what?"
I also have adhd and autism so prone to oversharing and bad at considering how my words may be taken. I didn't mean for my words to come off as prying or argumentative. it seems I failed in this instance and I apologize for such. my intent was just idle musings that would be good for the algorithm, since I did hear about the plume fossil
For one of your Black/White runs could you try beating the champion? The run doesn't feel right if the champion hasn't been dethhroned
More streams? YES PLEASE
Very sorry for you man, hope it's okay, and you're a golden man helping Fatima even though you're separated, take care man❤
P.S. might look silly but I even cried a little for you, if a person doesn't deserve this it's definitely you
GEN 6 W REGIGIGAS LETS GOO!
Glad you mentioned which fossil you took, I was just about to leave a comment asking!
😮 Damn MB I'm sorry to hear about you and Fatima.
That's rough buddy
Hoping this transition in your life continues to go well. I don't really like streams but I really hope it goes well for you!
Archen/Archeops could also be a fun run, its got pretty good stats but ALSO has a godawful ability in Defeatist, which cuts all stats in half once HP is half or below.
Can you beat Pokemon Violet only using Pikachu, Charmander-Charizard, Bulbasaur-Venusaur, Squirtle-Blastoise in battle?
I always thought that Juan and Volkner both are pretty solid 8th Gym leaders - especially platinum Volkner.
Always love these
I know that in previous streams you’ve said that you have no form of schedule for your streams & that they’re quite sporadic, but are there any days or times that you’re more likely to stream?
It’s always a gut punch to find out that I’ve just missed one by an hour or so.
Right now it genuinely is incredibly random when I go live. My schedule is pretty different week to week at the moment
Yeah, that’s understandable. I can’t even imagine what your schedule would have looked like back when you were doing daily videos
Claire from Gen 2 can be hard if your team doesn’t have a Pokémon with a strong ice move. Otherwise, he is a cakewalk. Though her Kingdra is nothing to snuff at. If you can get passed her Dragonaires with most of your Pokémon, you can just brute force your way with strong power moves.
Wait so why doesn’t mdb do the Cynthia fight when he does black and white??
"Who is even a hard 8 gym leader?" Jaun in Emerald, Kingdra with Double Team and Rest is foul.
A 'Clan' type of run would be interesting; just like how dragon tamers have non-dragon pokemon because they are part of the dragon egg group, pick an egg group and do a run with only those Pokemon. Or maybe a 'tutor' run, where you pick a certain move and only use Pokemon that can learn it.
I have an idea ! Why not try after the final boss of Black and White the post-game fight against Cynthia for the next times ?
Suggestion Black/White 2 (specifically 2) with trade pokemon only
Ah... That outro. I'm glad you're alright at the moment and being supportive.
13:15 dont quote me but im pretty sure this Golurk Has No Guard; so it ignores Substitute, along with any move that makes you normally untargetable (Fly, Dive, Dig etc.)
I once did a Porygon run in Pokemon Black a year and a half back. This wasn't the first pokemon challenge I did but I very rarely do pokemon challenges nowadays due to obvious health issues I've been suffering for the past four years. I never got though the post-game but I did beat the core of Pokemon Black with only one Porygon. Here's how the post-game went though. I mostly grinded on most of the post-game npc trainers until I was at a high enough level to try the post-game elite four. If I recall correctly the only member of the post-game elite four I could defeat was Shauntal the ghost trainer. The rest of the elite four I didn't come close to making it to their last pokemon. Again I never made it through the post-game but I did beat the core of Black with only one Porygon so I'm going to call that one of the few pokemon challenges I ever done. Most other Challenges I did in the past I either ended up failing or just simply gave up because they are mostly not worth my time. Maybe I'll come back to those and other challenges in the future if I can. Right now I'm focusing on gameplay on the remake of Super Mario RPG on the switch. In fact I'm actually kinda practicing for a speedrun if I ever be able to get the Super Suit and Attack Scarf. And that's my story.
