Rules and Explanations
Rules: (1) Only use the one Pokémon in Battle, others for HMs are fine. (2) No Items in battle (3) No Glitches* (4) Set Mode (5) No saving in the Elite Four (6) No evasion moves
Badge Boost "Glitch" Explanation: When you collect odd numbered badges the game boosts a stat by 12.5%. Brock gives ATK, Surge DEF, Koga SPE, and Blaine SPC (in game text is wrong). When any of your stats are modified (even by you using a move like Withdraw, or your opponent using Leer) the badge boosts are re-applied. So If you use Swords Dance, you also gain *an additional 12.5% in Speed/Defence/Special (on top of the 12.5% you were supposed to be getting). When you level up, the game corrects this error, and only the non-glitch 12.5% remains. Because of how difficult it is to avoid, I've allowed for it to be exploited, since opponents will spam Leer/Growl anyways, and this way battles are less random. Red/Blue are extremely buggy, so there's always going to be some glitches present, and because of how unavoidable this one is, it is allowed in runs, and considered more like a special Generation 1 mechanic as opposed to a glitch. - เกม

The best one was the level five elite four.
Jrose Explaining Barrier vs. Meditate: So basically, Meditate is better because it's worse.
He probably should have ran Psychic, Body Slam, Meditate and Barrier. Anything that resisted Psychic would be no issue for boosted Body Slams that Barrier helps set up easier. Oh well.
Jrose 11 is one of those really nice "routine" youtube channels imo
The vids are a bit repetitive by virtue of around 90% of them being about Gen 1 Solo Runs, you watch enough of them you get a general feel for which bits are going to be mentioned outside of those moments where some random fourth-grader on route 15 ends up being the god of all pokemon for some reason
You go in knowing the Elite 4 is gonna be half the runtime, there are some recurring jokes you can safely assume will show up, this isn't the kind of content you go to if you're trying to shake things up
But like... that's why I keep watching, sometimes I just feel like listening to Jrose talk for a few hours and he makes the videos fun to listen to
The runs themselves are interesting, yeah, and there are plenty of moments that catch my attention, but like... it's kind of just nice that this exists
Top tier comfy content imo
Agreed he's one of my favorite youtubers
The reason that Sabrina's Alakazam is locked into Recover against other Psychic types but the rival's isn't is because Sabrina's Alakazam knows Psywave. It's common knowledge that the programmers mistakenly made the AI always use super effective moves even if they don't do damage, but when it comes to not very effective moves, the programmers actually got it right: the AI will only avoid not very effective moves if the Pokemon knows an "acceptable" alternative move. Attacks that don't deal damage are usually not considered acceptable, and so the rival's Alakazam, which knows three Psychic moves and Recover, can use any move. Because Psywave ignores type effectiveness, however, it is always considered an acceptable alternative move. Therefore, because Sabrina's Alakazam knows an acceptable alternative move, it will avoid using not very effective moves. But Psywave itself is a Psychic move, and so the AI sees it as not very effective and will avoid using it. Thus, Sabrina's AI is locked into Recover.
The fact that the "good AI" is in fact, some of the dumbest AI in practice ever is exhilarating to me.

That’s a HILARIOUS catch-22-style screwup. So specific, and yet so interesting! Thank you for your explanation. I love Gen 1 AI.

Love these videos, but I always find myself rewatching sections where I have quickly done a task whilst watching only to realise its gone from Jrose fighting Misty to suddenly fighting Bruno.
Dang Jrose lives for chaos. Saying Lorelee and then immediately saying Lorelei threw me off so much lol. Great run as always Jrose
Now I can read/hear it!
You should hear how he pronounces “against” lol

You should leave Kadabra for your final run, it is your fav after all!
Agree

@@AwesomeHairogreat use of comma
Will be another 3 years tho

Please AJ / Jro : highlight the current pokemon's location on the tier list at the end. Its getting hard to spot it 😂
I'll come up with something to make'em stand out more!
I'd honestly really love for it to be a linked excel document somewhere. Just to be able to look at it, at leisure. Just my two cents, Love this channel, yall do great work@@SimplyAJ
@@SimplyAJ You're the GOAT AJ!!!
@@SimplyAJI was hoping for simply a zoom in on the tier it's in? Great work, love your occasional editor's comments too!
I also agree. Thank you AJ for taking that suggestion!
Sabrina's Alakazam spammed recover because it has "good" ai, and its other three moves are psychic and thus not very effective. Or at least, I think that's the case.
Rival has good AI too but uses psychic moves nonetheless, despite being able to spam Recover.
The Rival's Zam has the same setup of 3 psychic moves + recover but doesn't spam it, which is why he singled Sabrina's out. The good ai move effectiveness logic probably only spams non damage moves on super effective types (like Lance's dragons against fighting/poisons). If I had to guess why only her Zam spams recover it would be partly from move ineffectiveness, but also due to it being her last Mon using some survivalist strat (even to no end) since the rival never uses Zam last.
Sabrina's good AI is part of the reason, but it is not all. Good AI only discourages not very effective moves if the Mon also knows an offensive move which is either normally effective or uses an unusual damage calculation. Only Sabrina's Alakazam (not the Rivals) knows Psywave and since it is a move with an unusual damage calculation Psywave can discourage the use of itself (and Psychic/Barrier), leaving Sabrina's Alakazam in the unique position to discourage all her offensive moves against a Psychic type.
Sees "1 hour of silence but yoshi occassionally licks you" in Jrose's suggested videos 🤔
As someone who's done this run with minimum battles, you absolutely messed up by not keeping barrier and not saving a rare candy for the champion battle. Props for admitting your barrier mistake though.
I've been waiting years for this video. Thanks for making it happen!
Man, the moment you took Meditate over Barrier, I knew you were making a mistake. I'm glad you recognized it though.
As you've said yourself, Barrier would have helped a lot against Lance, but I think it would have actually helped in other tough fights. Most important is the Champion as the biggest obstacle turned to be Exeguttor, but only because his physical attacks did okay damage while it survived a long time (and the leer). While with Barrier, it would have been easy to set up against Pidgeot or even Rhydon, and then the only obstacle would have just taken long to KO, but would not be a threat
Another battle where it would have helped is surprisingly Misty, because you could have set up against Staryu and then have the attack badge boost from Brock significantly power up Mega punch. The battle would still have not been free, but reasonnably easy even without Light screen
I'm wondering if mimicing barrier on alakazam would have been better. You wouldn't have staying power but the damage from exeggcutor would have been reduced.
Recover makes you nigh invincible.
I think body slam with mediate is the better option. After two boosts it’s Mime’s best attacking move on anything that isn’t weak to Psychic or Thunderbolt.
Jrose talking about going to Erika ASAP recently makes me remember the early days when he would frequently forget to go to Erika until near the end
Been there, done that.
Same 😂
When he went with meditate instead of barrier for the extra opportunities to badge boost I remember thinking "I feel like that's gonna come back to bite you"
yeah, being able to badge boost 3 times instead of 6 is still better if you also get max Defense...
@@DJFracus My thoughts exactly. It pairs so nicely with light screen to help counter Mr. Mime's low base stat in HP.
@@DJFracusI also feel like there weren’t a lot of Pokémon he was able to setup 6 badgeboosts against in this run.
Can we all agree Rhyhorn looks dope in Mr Mime's colour pallet
Can we all agree how many effort Mr. Mime puts into Rhyhorn
Looks like that filler episode where the crystal Onix appears.

Aha, thanks!
Something I like about these videos is when you acknowledge making big mistakes with certain Pokémon. It’s just nice to see. That said, I think you did a pretty good job with Mr. Mime and feel like you overall did the run justice.
The E4 name mispronunciation in your last vid had me rolling with laughter, it was so funny to me. 10 out of 10, for sure.
*fwebbe*
Love this color pallette
Seems unintuitively that mr. Mime should have been using body slam with meditate
@jdsnerdverse
Or he genuinely didn't think of it? He has several of these going at once and goes back to them in sessions...it's natural he may miss something that seems obvious with the edited down video and voice over.
Also he regularly gets hundreds of thousands of views?? And I've rarely seen comments about an "obvious proper strategy" unless it was also very obviously boring. Not sure where you got the impression JRose intentionally hampers his playthroughs, unless he's doing it to make it more entertaining (which he'll acknowledge...)
@@jdsnerdverseyeah man I don’t know where you’re getting that from but you should try to be a little less cynical :)
I hope that we got these updated themes to the overall soundtrack because DAMN they sound really good. Excellent vid as always dude.
OK first thing I thunk was how cool is that colour pallet. Looks great! Love these runs, so happy you're still making them
I’ve been struggling with severe anxiety lately and I discovered you these past few months. I’ve done nothing but binge every chance I get. The method, the planning and strategy, your presentation, all of it, has helped me more than I could ever thank you for. Thank you so much for taking the time to create the content you do!
Damn, AJ with the meta commentary
I'm genuinely surprised it wasn't called out sooner! haha
AJ is savage. The best
its crazy to me that we get all this content and yet i don't think i've ever seen an in-video ad for RAID SHADOW LEGENDS or anything. what a chad
Lol, you have no idea how close I was to doing one *for this video*. They pay really well.

I'm not complaining
I watch these every night before bed. Awesome videos man hope to see many more
It's Monday morning for me so I needed this. Thanks Jrose!
You make my day better when you post, i use this videos to fall asleep because your voice is very friendly and wholesome
Maybe it's just me, but when Jrose was mispronouncing the elite 4's names I found it hilarious! Comedy gold 😂
Same here! How could anyone be upset over that?
I thought it was hilarious too

A fully evolved Pokémon having 40 for HP is nuts.
I wonder if they tried to balance around Light Screen/Reflect since they last the whole battle and Mr Mime is the “Barrier Pokemon”
@@rruhland
Maybe. Except Dragonrage Nightshade, Seismic Toss, and Sonic Boom there weren’t any moves that ignored the barrier moves in Gen 1, right?
@@rruhlandSound good only on paper. Because in pratice, 40 HP on a defensive mon is terrible.
Wait until you hear about shedninja
I mean it was a solo mon in gen 1 so...
Keep it up! Love your series
Always a good day when you get a Jrose video. Mr. Mine did really good. It has a pretty unique movepool for a Gen 1 Psychic type that makes it different from the others. Seismic Toss (if you fight the trainers in a certain order, they move out of the way to let you get it without using Cut) would've made Misty a bit easier I think, as it'd be a clean 3HKO on Starmie, but otherwise not many improvements to make. Awesome run.
Really thanks for all the videos
I love the Pepto-Bismol pink

i mean i thought the mispronunciations of the elite 4 names were funny, you truly never miss ja-rahsé
Great job Jrose and Mr mime did well and keep up the amazing work
The music you used for the Sabrina battle jumpscared me
On the gen 1 vs gen 3 comment, I totally agree. To me the fun of the solo runs is seeing how you solve the "puzzle" of how to beat the game. Anyone else who wants to try could probably find a few more efficiencies here or there but generally there is a solution to the puzzle that anyone could play along and duplicate. Once you get to gen 3, it is no longer "how to beat the game with *A* [insert Pokemon]" it's "how to beat that game with *this* [insert Pokemon]." While I think for the player that would add variety and challenge as a viewer it makes the solution to the puzzle less interesting because I would probably never face that exact puzzle without a bunch of resets.
That especially becomes the case when Hidden Power is a useful type for one of his runs
I respect your dedication so much. I'm doing a run with only 4 pokemon (Pikachu, Squirtle, Charmander & Bulbasaur so i guess a quad run?) and I'm barely able to manage it. You're truly insane for doing a solo run with every single pokemon.
I remember in previous video where Jrose said it wasn't a speedrun because there is no rounting planned and decision are made on the fly.
But well, while there is definitively a layer of improvisation, by this point it's safe to say there are general routings, having a (sometime wrong) intuition of what battle order and ressource gathering he should go for depending on the pokemon and feedback. (not meaning sometime Jrose don't made mistakes )
In a way....isn't kinda like a roguelike speedrun (beside set seeds) ? in a roguelike you can never be sure of how the run would go and thus movements are rarely ever done the most optimal way possible, but with experience you surely know what are some of the msot efficient choices and wich decision you should take.... here's it's the ""main weapon"" that got "randomized".
Glad Ash’s mom let him out of the house…
Yep
Great video, insane background music to listen to for an hour
This….this feels like a threat
When I saw this in my notifs, I decided to save it for the next time I was sad enough to need a comfort watch. It happened sooner than I thought :') But, ugh, I do love this series
18:25 - Solid work there, AJ. Now go an build that fourth wall back up!^^
The name trolling in the Zubat video was funny
I’ve been looking forward to this
I was just saying this morning that I would love to see a Mr. Mime run. What a pleasant surprise, thanks for the Sunday treat.
Damn bro you got the luck lol
who were you saying that to?
@@giancarlodisalvo1784he said it to me
This run had a nice color palette!!
MOAR!!
Seriously, I just caught up on the entire back catalogue and now I have nothing to watch 😢
"Its Mime Time" is a phrase thats shown up in my nightmares before.
Damn
Just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and these solo runs are so entertaining! Pls do exeggutor next.
any chance you could start using an arrow to point to where a pokemon went in the tier list? it's getting a little difficult to see
I'm sure I could add in an arrow, or highlight them. I'll think of something that looks good~
@@SimplyAJ thank you, i appreciate that
I have a great idea for a challenge run! Same rules as the minimum battle run; however, as soon as you get experience share, you must equip it to a pokemon and never use that pokemon. This effectively reduces the amount of exp you get by half and lowers your team to 5. I wonder if such a run is possible? Cheers and love your channel.
Hey jrose, I stumbled upon your channel and since then I love your videos! But after watching, I had a thought. Do you think you can beat the game using only your opponent's power against them? As in using only moves like bide, counter, etc.? You can use a regular move against bug catchers that have metapods that only use harden (or struggle) and some other move against the mandatory ghost pokemon that normal/fighting moves can't hit. Start with any Pokemon you want, and play however you want until you beat Brock (until you get bide). What do you think?
You're awesome man! 😎
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS POKEMON!!!
The zoom-out to TH-cam interface really threw me for a loop, because I downloaded the video and was watching it locally in VLC media player
Damn, mate got me feenin for a new episode now lol
I can't believe how hard this soundtrack slaps
This color scheme is really nice❤️
Let’s go! My favorite Pokemon!
I like the pink pallet looks very clean
Love all your vids. Really enjoyed the crystal rom playthrough
I am more excited/happy when I see a new Jrose11 video than any other creator on TH-cam
I've kind of been waiting for this one. I've never really understood Mr. Mime in Red/Blue, its such an anomaly
always happy to see a gen1 run! Especially one with a pokemon we never see!
I was surprised when he lost barrier, I thought maybe he'd learn reflect later or that meditate raised something other than attack
Sweet. 🎉Mr mime is my guy!
another great speedrun from Jrose
kinda missed opportunity to mime out the whole video, but still great work as usual!
Wow, I'm not at work for a new video? I'm too excited
21:27 That Substitute battle! 😆
Exeggutor was a really good check for both Psychic and Thunderbolt.
The music during the Sabrina fight was pretty cool
You unlocked a repressed memory I had, I did a solo run with this as a kid 😂😂
Love these consistent uploads!
Ngl i just now noticed there was was a counter in the thumbnail don't know if i'm the only one. Also damn 80 its only felt like ive watched a couple of these keep up the good work.
Yay Mr. Mime!! I always liked it growing up haha
Hey Jrose, I remember you were going through some stuff a while ago (must have been over a year now). I know the regular content is back and that probably bodes well but I hope you are doing good fella.
Thanks as always for the content.
I played a ton of Pokemon Red growing up, and Mr. Mime was one of the few Pokemon I never ever used. I feel a piece of my missing childhood was restored by watching this. Thank you, Jrose.
I don't even know where you catch it. Is it a Pokemon you only get at the game center?
@@GyzelE
You can trade for it somewhere (I think it's in the house at the end of the Diglett cave?).
Perfect timing
The description joke is top notch
Hey bro i watched almost every video off you and i have to say can you make a guide with all the stuff you use and how to generate starter pokemons etc?
Hell yes great start to the day!!!
Fr
Perfect start to my day! Thanks jrose11!!!
Agreed
18:24 This edit was sick, big props to the editor.
Jrose, how about this for a red/blue run idea. You can only use pokemon in battle that are traded in game after entering Vermillion city. Maybe start with a Nidoran Male for the first trade (or whichever pokemon comes first). Maybe put a level cap on them like level 50 or 60 since they level up so fast. I don't think it would be impossible, but it would be interesting to see what kind of team you would build with limited options of powerful pokemon and perhaps trying to manage their levels so that they're used when you need them. Anyways, enjoying your series, keep it up!
The whole Mr Mime line is one of my all time favorites (I do be loving me some mimes) so really pumped for this run!
Been waiting for this one!
I remember I used to use abra or the traded mr mine in my team back in day.. good times
I've watched almost all of your videos, I just have one question... Can you use cut outside of battle without beating Misty?
No
sweet man!
Love the color scheme on this one, good to see some more regular uploads :)
17:04 nice jump scare
Looking forward to the Cubone and Marowak run
Cubone is going to be so bad alongside Sandshrew. They basically fall over if a Special move even looks at them and they can't outspeed a wet paperbag.
