As someone who didn't know you knew Japanese, I thought the whole joke of choosing Pokémon Green but only being able to press A would be "Just mashing A because I can't read."
Pit plays Pokémon
@@bawesom4 XD
I always liked green and leaf green, doesn't really matter if that one pokemon is weak during certain parts of the game if you just....have other pokemon
I don't even keep my starter pokemon, I don't like how they force it on me like that, maybe I wanted to start with a rattata lol
“Either Bulbasaur or Charmander will do, but DO NOT pick Squirtle...”
Well, duh, of course not. Squirtle doesn’t have an “A” in its name.

you see, the reason the screens were white after lance and the final rival was because how much snow was in the room after you frosted the place over with so many blizzards

As a japanese teacher, i relate so much to the kana-only pain. reading my A1/A2 level student's essays which are also never properly spaced is the slowest id ever read
At least Pokemon has the courtesy to insert spaces...!

Oak: congrats “a” , you are the champion. I am so proud of you. Now let’s officially induct you into the history books as the champion. *pushes button*
Random voice: “nuclear launch activated”
“a”: ...
Oak: “sorry. I can only press the a button and the hall of fame button is below the ‘nuke the league’ button. I’ll see you in pokéhell”

I have a friend who learned Japanese just because “Japanese versions of games come out earlier”
Imagine learning an entire language to play a game before localisation
Ah yes, the monster hunter fandom usee to be like this.
I would learn to understand Anime that wasn't censored by who ever dubs them into English and German, has no western politics forced into them etc.
Video Games being the reason for Gamers to learn another language is WAY more common than you think it is... especcially for non-english native speakers...
Because while MOST games from all over the world get an english localisation at some time... most languages never get localisations.
And I personally learned enough Japanese two finish 2 old japanese only GBA games.
I did play Black 2 before release in the states, but I don’t know Japanese. I learned what most of the moves were, with the animations/typing/pp, and kinda made up the story as I went along. The only problem was the Plasma ship, since you needed passwords to get to Colress, but at that point people had already posted guides. Other than that, if you understand Pokémon, most of the games are straight forward enough to play blind
Yeah can you imagine... haha... what a nerd.
Something else worth noting is that Fire didn't start resisting Ice until Gen II, so those Ice Beams and Blizzards were actually Super Effective against that Charizard.
The reason for that American stereotype is probably bc of our base in Okinawa. Marines and Sailors have a reputation for colorful language lol.
Can confirm: my dad wasn't an "actual" sailor for very long, but I learned a few choice words from him. Even a German one!

Bill's accent is what us Americans call a "Brookline accent"
Eyyy I'm WALKIN HERE
@@ImportedCheese WATCHIT PAL
I've also seen it translated as a heavy texan accent.
While I can't say I understand the meaning of the accent itself, something that is somewhere between a Texan and a Brooklyn accent somehow sooooorta makes sense?
Joey from Yugioh makes perfect sense now
Could you classify imported cheese as some kind of butter because man your voice is smooth as butter
Thank you! The cheese refers to my real-life last name. The exact variety is a secret!
I was literally about to comment that I love this mans voice. Golden as hell 💛💛
Pokemon videos brought to you by Jack Monterey.
I would’ve said as some fine TH-camr since cheese gets better the older it gets ;)
It really depends on if you prefer your extra-territorially sourced lactating mammal fluids in fermented solid or toast-paint variations
this channel is great and I love the humor: especially the obscure Japanese jokes
Thanks for watching! Invite your weeb friends, I guarantee the obscure Japanese jokes will continue.
I long have stood by the notion that kana are the challenging part of Japanese. My textbook with about 600 characters used is still challenging, because of the kana... It's like once you've taken the kanji plunge, it becomes your best friend
"I'm warpin' 'ere!"
And I'm dying here (of laughter)
I actually cried a little with the Jrose11 reference. Omg dude you're hilarious like seriously
Ahaha, thanks for the complement!
I try xD
Yes! This is what I was looking for! Rival Fival for the win. LOL
Rival Fiveal all the way (:
@@ImportedCheese thank you for not using MDB's overused '''''jokes''''' like so many of these types of videos do
@@pokemonduck For real, MDB is as stale as his channel name.
You know, when I first saw this video I just assumed that pressing A in a very specific pattern would just glitch you to the hall of fame because Gen 1 is just that broken.
This man's Bill impression is now the only way i will imagine him from now on
It's like a curse from a fantasy RPG: as soon as you enter combat, you start fighting mindlessly.
Sounds like standard RPG combat to me! Mash A, save the world.
"As he prepared to induct us into the HoF the game crashes"
I was in STITCHES
That was hilarious
Give this man a sub!
Pokémon Blue Machop: Where do you train?
Pokémon Green Machop: In the library.
On the hub
The video library of a popular adult website, that is.
I think "Rival Fival" should become the official name of that character. LOL
Another Jrose11 fan? 👀👀
@@henrymars6626 Yes!
Oh, a Mah-Dry-Bread Enjoyer.
No. It's annoying and my ears bleed every time I hear it.
cheers I'll drink to that bro
I might attempt this same run in black 2 challenge mode. Cheers for the idea.
Thanks for watching! Let me know how your run goes if you end up attempting it! I'd imagine the ability to switch moves out of battle won't make up for the opponents having actual AI...
10:06 That “wait T H E R E’s M O R E” hit different
Wouldn't part of the Kana script thing be more than just "kids' game" tho? Isn't it more of a memory limitation. I think I remember hearing it's common in older games.
Also resolution. Japanese devs were pretty ingenious with with how few pixels they can draw kanji with, but there's limits.
lets be real we all did this challenge as 4 year olds playing pokemon
Turbo Weeb is my new favourite term 😂
It tears up the high-school meta! I didn't become a weeb until college, unfortunately.
Mine to. I'm not obsessed with there culture or anything, but being able to watch/read something like Dragon Maid (the best media ever) would be awesome
Didn't know you lived in Japan! Loved your Japanese explanations :D
Awesome video, and a different challenge run than most haha
Thanks for your support!!!
@@ImportedCheese no problem! When your channel gets giant, I wanna be one of those annoying guys saying I was around when it was still little haha
I'll pin a few of those comments, gimme a few months haha
@@ImportedCheese remember this monke when you get big.
Haha I love this so damn much. I haven't laughed this much in a while watching pokemon runs. Surge, and the explanations of different things really push this up the quality
You know, when I saw the title, I didn't even think it'd be clickbait, I just thought Red/Green were broken enough that some programming oversight meant you could press A enough and you'd move and turn.
Still a really interesting video, though. That kana-only rant is mood - I tried playing through LGPE in kana only because 'it must be the easier one because it's aimed at younger children'. I gave up well before brock and switched to kanji+furigana it was so much easier to read, even for someone who knew nearly 0 kanji at the time
24:38 Porygon was actually not to blame for that incident. It was Pikachu blowing up team rocket's rockets with an electric move. I don't know which one exactly, but if it was thunderbolt, it's an odd coincidence.
Nothing is ever Pikachu's fault, Porygon was sacrificed for Pikachu's sins
This video is so great!! A fun challenge on top of hearing/learning the translation is just phenomenal. Thank you!
So basically Bill is Joey Wheeler from the dub? 🤔
Eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I uh, may have taken some creative license with my Bill "impersonation."
Man it is facinating to get to hear all these tidbits about green and how the text is written! Neat!
There are way too many beginner's Japanese guides that recommend playing Pokémon because "it doesn't have Kanji".
I'm glad pointed out why that's nonsense.
When I started out with Kanji, I thought everyone who said that they actually make reading easier when you know them just suffers from stockholm syndrome. But they're right.
Mostly. When it's not obscure readings, or Nanori, or Ateji...
After years and years I can finally read most things, but whenever I come across the name of a person or place, I usually can't read it =/
@@ImportedCheese That moment when Japanese learners complain about learning to read Kanji. For us Chinese learners, Kanji is literally everything! * tears hair out * I love your videos, you crack me up. Subbed.
Amazing video. And also informative with the Weeb Rant section before the Elite 4. Thank you!
I really love your videos! You're really doing those games justice. Back in the og days I've used to watch missingnoxpert.
The crash at the end was a great way to end a GEN 1 run lmao.
That's pretty much what playing Pokemon as a little child would be like. "Just mashing A because I can't read."
My aunt gifted me Japanese Gold back when I couldn't read any Japanese, so my playthrough pretty much amounted to mashing A and using moves that had "cool" animations.
@@ImportedCheese I did pretty much the same with Black because I got it as a gift and couldn't wait for a release in a language I could actually understand. It was probably a lot easier than Gold would've been because there is a lot more non-text stuff to get by with but it was certainly an experience. 🤣 To this day I don't know what my team did except for the fact that Darmanitan was a beast.
I always used every move the same number of times
Came for the unique Pokémon challenge, stayed for the cool Japanese facts. Really enjoy your commentary and sense of humor!
Hey, thanks for watching!
As long as you're not commenting, "EXCUSE ME, YOU USED THE D-PAD!" I'm a happy camper xD
also, I think Bill's accent in English is supposed to be Southern. Hence the "Yee-hah" and "I can't stand fancy dos"
Thunderbolt animation be like:
Lavender Town Syndrome amirite?
12:04
Apparently Lt. Surge in the Japanese version of the Pokemon anime is the principal from Ranma 1/2.
Well that explains why bill has a weird accent in the localization of Pokémon special.
As a filthy genwunner, a Green run makes me sooooo happy.
Ah, I forgot you could walk around using the A button.
"In battle"
Good Lord... I blocked out the Thunderbolt animation with my hand and I still have a headache from it. Fighting Lt. Surge must have been sheer torture. How did people only get seizures from the anime?
They literally call epilepsy checks in the TV industry "The Pokemon Check" because of that Porygon episode =/
This kind of content isn't for me, but I love the energy you bring to your content! I loved watching and listening!
Love your content - you're awesome, dude!
For this run getting the scam Magikarp + using daycare to lvl it up could also have worked well
Yeah I was thinking that too. I guess he probably decided not to since by the time magikarp was leveled up enough, that's about the time you can get lapras anyway unless you grind walking
You are hilarious and this deserves a lot more views!
Aw, thanks!
Is that...an Anna avatar?
@@ImportedCheese Np and yes! It's meant to be me as Ana.
The fact you won this challenge aside, I also like how you had every Lord's theme from Pokemon Conquest play according to the Gym Leader/E4 member you fought [like Nobunaga/Dragnor's theme for the Lance fight]. Conquest was easily my favorite Pokemon spinoff lol.
Pokemon Conquest is better than Fire Emblem Conquest!
Have you ever considered mr. mime instead of lapras? You can get an abra to trade from the casino and you can trade it on route 2. Moreover you can do it before the third gym and before the rocket hideout, you can use the psychic TM as soon as you get the mr.mime and, since it's a traded pokemon, it levels up faster! Psychic seems a good move for the whole run (with STAB too...)
Sounds cool in theory, but Mr. Mime doesn't get access to any Ice-type moves, and Blizzard is really nice to have for Lance.
BADDA BING, BADDA BOOM, I’M AN ABOMINATION
"Whadda ya mean that's not an accurate translation of the Japanese? Can you read the text? I'm translatin' here!"
dude your videos are so good! your channel is gonna blow up real soon, I know it
30:48 good ol' badge boost glitch to the rescue (even tho Charizard's weak to ice because fire is cold in gen spaghetti). And ofc it crashes in the end, it's Pokémon Spaghetti: Spaghetti edition
8:18 My favorite moment in Pokémon is when bill says "Is warpin time" and starts to warp all over the place
did he deal a warpillion damage?!
Keep it up man you’re gonna be full time yt in 9 months
That story about the Japanese middle school student's American impression sent my sides into orbit. I would love to see a video from you chronicling all the other funny stories and interactions from when you used to teach in Japan!
Thank you on the Pokemon Conquest music, that's massive nostalgia
alright frick the challenge i watched it for the osaka to new york dialect translation
had no idea haze killed the badge boosts, is that only green?
B A D A B I N G B A D A B O O M
I believe Haze also kills your boosts in Red/Blue
Your translated voice acting at 8:05 is actually really good! :D
Eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
I've been rewatching your older videos and honestly I'd love to see some more challenge videos, maybe something Gen 3 related since I think only one ADV video is on here? I dunno, but I'd love to see more challenge videos
I have more planned, but they take a very long time to make, sadly. The Legends Arceus one took like...80 hours.
You didn't mention it, but apparently that fake move in Cinnabar Gym is based on Hyper Beam's Japanese name.
True, although it's about as easy to figure out as "Tombstoner" is for us. Hyper Beam is known as [破壊光線] (はかいこうせん) or "Destruction Beam;" the "Die-Die" part is pretty obviously made up >.>
@@ImportedCheese hmmm, reminds of a dragonball move
@@ImportedCheese
How'd you get to Cinnabar? You have to Surf to get there, and last you said you didn't learn it.
@@hanburgundy4317 I think he only said he wouldn't learn it over the attacking move
@@coyraig8332
But how do you select it to use it? You can't use Cut or Surf in the overworld in Gen 1 without going into the menu; there isn't a prompt like in Gen 2 that allows you to just press A. Likewise, you'd have to cycle down through your movesets to choose the move you want to replace. I guess I took the challenge more seriously lol
This was beautiful. Loved it!
Thanks for watching!
I hope you can forgive me for using buttons other than A in the overworld >.>
@@ImportedCheese I mean that would be literally impossible. You wouldn't be able to move.
A pretty neat idea I couldn’t have ever come with. I kinda want to do this sort of routing in Omega Ruby. Was debating B2/W2, but the grinding would be HELLISH there. Anyway, wish me luck! ^^
Good luck！
I'll try it in DaiPa remake next, probably. Infernape good pokemon!
Very nice! I came because the idea of a challenge run on Pokemon Green intrigued me, but I stayed for the Weeb Jrose and Japanese 101.
EYyy welcome!
There will be more Weebery to come.
That thunderbolt animation is so hilariously over the top lmaooo
This video has been my first time hearing about some of the regional differences (other than the infamous "old man being drunk")
and lowkey wanna start memeing the hell out of them 👀👀👀
Nice Jrose reference for Rival Fiveal
Jrose11 reference? Never heard of him or the other 10 jRoses. Pretty sure Fiveal is the Rival's default name.
This video took me back to a happy place I didn’t even know I had...? Idk, I guess I really enjoyed it.
Ive watched this video like 20 times now and its still a great watch. The concept is dumb in just the best way possible🤣
12:42 what you said about the 'a' character is starting to make sense to me now
The Pokemon Conquest music in the background is- mwah
16:40 i know this is actually just an obscure song from one of the less popular pokemon games but i can't not think of jrose hearing it lol
Anyway this is AMAZING. I laughed so much
I wouldn't have put it without having heard it in a Jrose vid ahaha
The fact that the game fucking crashed when you won SENT me. I respect Gen1 for starting my favorite franchise of all time, but GOD they're a MESS.
Nice run, very interesting to learn little factoids about Japanese and the original translations as well!
Mate your voice perfect
Plus is that pokemon conquest I hear? I think it's time to sub
Pokémon green: もっとプレイヤーが欲しい！
You:Can I offer you an A button in this trying time ?
Even use Gaijin scum who can't ready moon runes can mash A!
dude ur gonna end up being the new gamechamp
the person on youtube that completes hard-as-hell challenges at the cost of their mental health
That Xenoblade joke earned my sub
Im currently playing through Pokemon Sword in Japanese (tried Platinum earlier on... and just didn't read anything lmao) and the Kanji reading function is a humongous help. But I wish they'd just use furigana. 😂 Anyways, I really enjoyed the video! The turbo weeb stuff made for very fun commentary to listen to, on top of the very deep and silly voice. Good content!
The fact that the game crashed at the end made laugh in the bathroom.
Actually unscripted, I have no idea why the game crashed, but at least we made it to the HoF lol
it's a fitting end for a really glitchy game lol
The sprites are killing me man. The commentary is spot on too.
AAA
Pokémon conquest music??? Man I miss that game a ton
Nice to see stuff from another Japan resident. I can easily agree with the 'reading japanese in games' bit. Tried a Shield run on stream in Hiragana and hoo boy was it hard to understand without context (thankfully theres a kanji toggle). Still learning Kanji but I can read a few hundred, so maybe I'll have another go in the future.
Hey, thanks for watching! I find it so bizarre that Pokemon goes 0-100, you can have 100% hiragana or 100% kanji with no furigana option (???) Won't Gamefreak think of the children...?
@@ImportedCheese or the
外国人?
@@MrEsarty Don't be silly, there are no foreigners in Japan!
Pokémon doesn't have a furigana option???
@@Alizudo you can switch between the two in the new games at least but no combination
0:52 Any letter will become edgier when written with katana.
I wasn't doing any challenges back then, but when I was playing my very first pokemon game - red, I pretty much smashed the whole game with my Bulbasaur (and some help with HMs and and stuff like that from older bro ;) )
Cool to see someone talk about the Japanese versions. As someone who reads Chinese and some basic Japanese...if I ever play Pokemon it'll be XY.
I just realized that during rival fight number 5, having a fighting type would be HELL
I have learned more about gen 1 thank you my good sir
That Pokémon green edition diglett sprite is so cool xD
Every single time he says "a" I am immediately reminded of surskit.
I had FFXIV in the background and got confused at 7:05 when it started playing the wrong music for the area I was in.
Just wanna add to the reading point made that while old Pokemon games (or rather old games in general) use kana only, XY (and possibly SM) is the exact opposite having an option for kanji without furigana. I absolutely love it. I hate furigana almost as much as kana only.
Eyyyy I caught the reference at 13:36, nice to see that
That is a perfect ending, indeed.
Good thing that Pokemon added Kanji since Gen5. Makes it heck lot easier to read after that.
That was the best challenge run commentary I've ever listened to. How long do you need to write a script like that?
Razor leaf goes brrruhhh.
You should do a play through of the bootleg English translated version of Green. I’m pretty sure it’s a Vietnamese or Chinese translation of Green, translated back into English. It’s pretty hilarious. A channel named ButtVault made half a play through a few years ago.
Oh my god, I saw that on Vinesauce and it was a blast. 🤣
