Astonishing. Pokémon fans have refined and evolved the gameplay to such heights. This is so far beyond the game I remember playing as a kid. It might as well be a new game entirely.
Yeah, this whole run came about because I just got tired of playing the old way. I needed to be challenged for once, and hoo boy, did this run accomplish that. I'd highly recommend trying it out yourself; it's really fulfilling to see just how far you can push not only the game, but also yourself.

I’m pretty sure objectively speaking the only pokemon solo run that’s actually impossible to beat (assuming glitchless and only one of the solo Pokemon on your team, or 2 in games with mandatory double battles, OR 3 for that one rotation battle in BW2) is gen 1 Caterpie, since any ghost type immediately hard walls you due to Struggle not affecting ghost types in gen 1. Pinsir, despite only getting Normal and Fighting moves, gets Mimic which can potentially give it an out against any ghost types. And while by all means impossible in 99.999% of circumstances, you could hypothetically beat the game with one of the very few ‘University Magikarp’ given out as a prize in Japan, which knows Dragon Rage.

The more I watch this, the funnier it gets. “Super-effective Tackle”. The insane number of Master Balls used. Mr. Turtle randomly turning shiny. The held Ice Gem, which doesn’t become an item until the next generation. Super-effective recoil damage. I love it.
At first I thought you were ripping on one specific nuzlocker. As the video went on I realized that they literally all sound like this. 10/10 video, perfect amounts of parody and snark.
“I’ve watched enough of the pokémon anime to know that this is a horrible matchup for mr. turtle” is so good I feel like it’s only ever gone badly for Ash like once in twenty years
Using impossible means to skip every fight that isn’t strictly the gym leader is a great touch. These dudes never give a shit about playing the whole game
This run is obviously cheated. You can clearly see that Mr. Turtle's health values change during the zoom in starting at 5:23. The only conclusion I can draw here is that the footage has been doctored. Even though the rest of the video seems legit, this alone leads me to question this run's legitimacy. What else are you lying to the people about, Soda Crab?
"The hardest Pokemon challenge you've NEVER heard of!" "I played Pokemon Platinum for 5 hours, here's how it went..." okay but seriously this video is really good
One of my least favorite thing these types of videos do is when they get super lazy in the script writing process and just say “______ was an extremely difficult fight, but in the end, *somehow,* I got through 😎” and I’m really glad you included that specifically.
Look, I don’t wanna be controversial here, but I think this video is a faked run. Everyone knows the starters are Charmander, Bulbasaur, and the other one. Turtwig isn’t a real Pokémon, there’s only 150 Pokémon and I can name almost seven of them - so I call cheating
I can see the confusion, but this is a run of Pokemon Let's Go Mr. Turtle, a niche game for the Virtual Boy, in which they introduced Mr. Turtle, better known as Turtwig colloquially. Hope this helps!
I was fighting the first trainer in the game and I won by hitting his pokemon with a 95% accuracy move. I ended up soft resetting because I dont like relying on luck based strategies.
@@obambagaming1467 I hacked in Farfetch'd as a starter and swept the entire game. It's not a flex or anything, Fire Red is just that easy (Swords Dance Aerial ace goes brrr).

@@amelialonelyfart8848 thats why I think many of those challenge runs have stupid questions in the title like "can I beat Pokemon Red with just a Mewtwo?!?!". Yes. Yes ofc you can beat most games with most Pokemon. Only a few Pokemon are actually a challenge or impossible. Most official mainline Pokemon games are really easy (aside from postgame bossfights), if you know what you're doing Pokemon like Farfetchd arent even that bad. It's stats arent the worst. Also any mon with setup moves is great. The only solo Pokemon challenges I kinda enjoy are those where they try to find out how fast can any Pokemon beat a certain game.
Gonna show this to someone who doesn’t play Pokémon. They won’t know what Mega Lucario’s critical hit priority Blizzard is, so they’ll have no choice but to take your word that Mr. Turtle was in serious danger.
Can't believe you not only completed this challenge, but you were crazy enough to try and complete it again. Honestly, best Pokemon challenge RUclipsr there ever was or will be.
Phew, that run was pretty close. Good thing your evil alter-ego Juice Lobster didn't interfere and try to sabotage the final battle or you might have had to use max revive.

I have no idea who you are, but what you have accomplished here today will go down in history as one of humanity's greatest achievements. Congratulations to you and Mr. Turtle. You deserve all the praise
Most gaming videos are like this because the majority of the viewers didn't watch videos they listen to them in the background.

The more I watch this, the funnier it gets. “Super-effective Tackle”. The insane number of Master Balls used. Mr. Turtle randomly turning shiny. The held Ice Gem, which doesn’t become an item until the next generation. Super-effective recoil damage. I love it.
"but we aren't out of the woods yet"
the tree on mr. turtle's back:
At first I thought you were ripping on one specific nuzlocker. As the video went on I realized that they literally all sound like this. 10/10 video, perfect amounts of parody and snark.
“I’ve watched enough of the pokémon anime to know that this is a horrible matchup for mr. turtle” is so good I feel like it’s only ever gone badly for Ash like once in twenty years
This is insane. No one's ever beaten Pokemon Platinum with Pokemon before. Truly an incredible accomplishment. My credit card is on its way.
Thank you! Your donation will help buy Mr. Turtle new shoes!
Whoops, didnt mean to click on a flygonhg video
Haha, and definitely some digs at Pchal as well
It felt like I was watching him.

Can't be a flygonhg video. He didn't say the words "leaving it with a sliver of health" 200 times
nah this isn't flygonhg I don't see/hear any corgi pics and perfectly cooked fish fillets
the grating poketuber/tiktok voice inflection was spot on, GG
This is the first time I’ve seen someone beat the first gym let alone the entire game. You’re a legend. A legend of Arceus if I do say so myself
Maybe the real legend was the Z's we made along the A
Say that again?
@@SodaCrab 'Write that down, write that down!!'
Imagine you're a beloved mon in a Nuzlocke, but then you start hearing the sad Gen 5 song.
That must be shocking once you realise your time has come
Using impossible means to skip every fight that isn’t strictly the gym leader is a great touch. These dudes never give a shit about playing the whole game
This run is obviously cheated. You can clearly see that Mr. Turtle's health values change during the zoom in starting at 5:23. The only conclusion I can draw here is that the footage has been doctored. Even though the rest of the video seems legit, this alone leads me to question this run's legitimacy. What else are you lying to the people about, Soda Crab?
Yeah nice try Crustaceus, obviously Mr. Turtle just tripped. He's clumsy, it happens. Get over yourself.
@@SodaCrab You lash out at me because you know I'm right. Pathetic. What would Lemonade Lobster think?
I love the fact that you used the trope “i caught a pokemon specifically for this” and then proceed to not use it at all haha
This could easily be a flygon video. Well made parody
"if Lucario mega evolves and goes for a priority critical hit blizzard"
took me tf out, man
"The hardest Pokemon challenge you've NEVER heard of!"
"I played Pokemon Platinum for 5 hours, here's how it went..."
okay but seriously this video is really good
Smant’s been real quiet ever since this dropped
The fish in the ad break is the best paid actor in all of this
I have no idea what you're talking about, that was just a random fish off the street, no affiliation to Soda Crab Inc
One of my least favorite thing these types of videos do is when they get super lazy in the script writing process and just say “______ was an extremely difficult fight, but in the end, *somehow,* I got through 😎” and I’m really glad you included that specifically.
Look, I don’t wanna be controversial here, but I think this video is a faked run.
Everyone knows the starters are Charmander, Bulbasaur, and the other one. Turtwig isn’t a real Pokémon, there’s only 150 Pokémon and I can name almost seven of them - so I call cheating
I can see the confusion, but this is a run of Pokemon Let's Go Mr. Turtle, a niche game for the Virtual Boy, in which they introduced Mr. Turtle, better known as Turtwig colloquially. Hope this helps!

THERE IS AN ANOTHER POKEMON THAT IS IN THE DEX, AND THATS PICHU!!! YOU ARE BREAKING LAWS BY SAYING THIS 100% FAKE FACT. 😡😡😡
"150 Pokémon"? Heh... this guy doesn't know about the Pokégods...
@@SodaCrab Oh! Okay, thank you for the information.
I apologise for being a fake fan.
150? This guy clearly didn't obtain Yoshi.
0/10 was so disappointed when you didn’t get interrupted by yourself doing an obnoxious voice set to your avatar with a moustache
Dang it, Sponsorblock forgot to flag the ad in this video.
It's all part of a conspiracy headed by big socks
With 5 flinches and crits in a row, my god that Cranidos fight was close
I'm trying to figure out just how many layers of irony there are here but I'm struggling.
There are none, this is dead serious
@@SodaCrab You know who else is dead serious?
MY MOM!!!
if you're struggling just use an ether smh
Mr Turtle is Steel/Metal, so at least two levels of Iron.
About 9:30 in he says there are 1000 layers of irony
I was fighting the first trainer in the game and I won by hitting his pokemon with a 95% accuracy move. I ended up soft resetting because I dont like relying on luck based strategies.
JROSE11 IS THAT YOU 😅
The “mining off camera” before candice is so good
This video made me platinum all over my monitor
2:12 the masterballs caught me offguard LOL
had to go back and make sure I was seeing that right too
Pokemon Challenges be like: "CAN I BEAT POKEMON GAME WITH ONLY MY STARTER?!"
6 year old me who was always doing this:🗿
It's TECHNICALLY a onelocke if your starter never faints
Did this with Ruby last year and had a level 100 Swampert walking into the pokemon league
With mudkip in sapphire? Easy
With pikachu in yerllow? Next to impossible
@@maestro9765 aside from that one.
But I was mainly refering to my first Pokemon game, Gold.
And as a kid I basicly just used my starter.
@@obambagaming1467 I hacked in Farfetch'd as a starter and swept the entire game. It's not a flex or anything, Fire Red is just that easy (Swords Dance Aerial ace goes brrr). Don't remember what my first ever 'team' was, but my first playthrough of Fire Red when I was like 12 was Charizard at levle 70 and Primape at level 50 lol
@@amelialonelyfart8848 thats why I think many of those challenge runs have stupid questions in the title like "can I beat Pokemon Red with just a Mewtwo?!?!".
Yes. Yes ofc you can beat most games with most Pokemon. Only a few Pokemon are actually a challenge or impossible.
Most official mainline Pokemon games are really easy (aside from postgame bossfights), if you know what you're doing
Pokemon like Farfetchd arent even that bad. It's stats arent the worst. Also any mon with setup moves is great.
The only solo Pokemon challenges I kinda enjoy are those where they try to find out how fast can any Pokemon beat a certain game.
this is one of the challenge runs of all time
This is uncomfortably accurate. I love how he's always at a disadvantage and never prepared to fight, and has 100 levels in the Champion fight😂😂😂
Such an intense run! The luck you had against Fantina was insane.
I think you mean Gardenia
Gonna show this to someone who doesn’t play Pokémon. They won’t know what Mega Lucario’s critical hit priority Blizzard is, so they’ll have no choice but to take your word that Mr. Turtle was in serious danger.
Wow, I didn't know it was possible to beat this game with Pokemon only. I feel... enlightened with this knowledge!
Truly, this is one of the Nuzlockes of all time. Congratulations on the win 👏🏻 well deserved
Can't believe you not only completed this challenge, but you were crazy enough to try and complete it again. Honestly, best Pokemon challenge RUclipsr there ever was or will be.
Phew, that run was pretty close. Good thing your evil alter-ego Juice Lobster didn't interfere and try to sabotage the final battle or you might have had to use max revive.
Surprised Juice Lobster didn’t make an appearance for the ad segment, good to see his adorable guppy Sesame in the ad as always tho
(V)(;,,;)(V)
I feel like this is specifically targettwd at Flygon HG and homestly as a big flygon fan that just makes this video even funnier. All that's missing is the silly metatextual ad segue
EDIT - WAIT I SPOKE TOO SOON. NOT THE AD ABOUT SOCKS 🤣😭😭
Fr I thought I was watching him
I used to like his videos but they just got too repetitive, this video was a breath of fresh air.
Flygon is too much of a trans deep throater
He’s privileged and insufferable
Privileged how exactly?
Love how you took the piss out of every pokemon challenge video. All that's missing is a guest youtuber nobody ever heard of overexplaining something simple that you could've said yourself with minimal/no editing.
That gible was tight, i can't belive how you could have done it without him
Alright, pack up the Nuzlocke scene, weve hit circlejerk territory
I could never make something this good, 13/10
I don’t know how the Cynthia battle constantly flip flopping between the BW credits theme and the XY sad theme is as funny as it is
I have no idea who you are, but what you have accomplished here today will go down in history as one of humanity's greatest achievements. Congratulations to you and Mr. Turtle. You deserve all the praise
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who’s sick of modern style Pokémon challenge videos! They have the most “middle school essay” vibes to them.
Most gaming videos are like this because the majority of the viewers didn't watch videos they listen to them in the background. Thats why those trash 100 days videos or I played every game of this series are so popular because you can put them in the background for 5 hours .
The same with 10 game review where the dude waffles about nothing and says the game changer my life or is a hidden gem .
I don't know why people watch those videos.
The recent example that made me lose hope in humanity was the " how many jumps do you need to beat Mario galaxy "
@@AlexiusRedwood Why are people complaining about video essays non stop? Is it because your tiktok attention span can't watch any video over 10 minutes long?
Explain what is any different about these "modern" challenges that makes them any different to any older videos, other than you just having nostalgic blindness for them.
Managing such a run is an unfathomable achievement, congrats!
Thank you, it took a lot of routing and planning, I couldn't have done it without the help of the community!
"I begin attempt 2 by reloading my save right after I beat Candice" I'M DYING
The shiny arceus showing up completely unmentioned during the hall of fame roll took me COMPLETELY off guard
LMAO someone had to make this video. This genuinely resumes that "Patrick and Spongebob scared for their lives on that kids roller coaster feeling" I sense everytime I see this kind of "challenges".
And then the firey fist-o-pain is a rom hack
You watch a single challenge run and your RUclips recommended feed is crowded with them forever
I really do need to go back and delete it from my watch history but it's been two years I'll never find it
@@hollylucianta6711 fr
@@cyberdarkturtle6971 and said Rom Hack was DESIGNED with Nuzlockes in mind (disappointing I know)
Hey guys this game is so well designed haha have you ever seen the hardest Pokémon game haha I'm going to die to that trainer who has a level 100 rattata guys haha what a great game
"I RAN THE CALCS" I'M CRYING.
I don't even watch pokemon like that but i felt every single pokemon youtube video ever in this vid LMAO.
Clear fake...
You didnt explain what STAB means 5 seconds into the first battle
"If you didn't know, Badge Boosts is a bug in Gen 1 coding that..."

I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish and the way you handled those gym puzzles was incredible. Peak pokemoning right here excellent work
You're missing the part where you spend at least 8 hours in the damage calculator before you press a move every single time

just wait until they tell you how many fire types there are in diamond and pearl. it's definitely a rare fact you haven't heard before.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Did you know that Vaporeon
can only learn Mist in Yellow if leveled up in the daycare? It's because in Gen 1, Pokemon can only learn one move at a time on level up and Vaporeon already learns Haze at the same level (but ONLY in Yellow; in Red, the two moves are spaced apart).
Watch out WATCH OUT HE’S BREAKING THE MOLD
Yt doesn't usually make me laugh but "with 5 flinches and crits in a row, cranidos threatens a ko on my entire team" made me laugh
The only thing it's missing is "Unfortunately, pokemon has a lot of RNG. RNG, which stands for Random Number Generator, is when the game rolls the dice to determine the probability of a certain action being successful."
Not the Alpharad Ad Music... (The funniest thing I have ever seen)
"I picked Turtwig because it evolves into a really cool guy with a tree on its back" incredible, this guy truly gets the platinum meta. Astute plays like this are why you were the first person to beat pokemon platinum.

Like who?
@@splitsee2526 It's dickriders like you who are to blame for the epidemic of corny & unfunny Poketubers. Jrose is a cocky asshole who literally says shit like "Well I didn't WANT to do the Count voice again, but SO MANY of you guys BEG me to do it, so I GUESS I will" or even worse, how literally 100% of his issues are user error, misclicks, forgetting Gym battles, etc. It is bullshit to say "well Geodude WOULD be right below Oddish, but since I forgot to battle Erika, it added 25 minutes to his time, so his rank is terrible". Wtf kind of logic is that? At what point has Jrose ever done anything worth noting? Any solo run in a Pokémon game is going to be easy af, the only issues he ever has is shit like "well even though I won, I want to win by chipping away at their health, not from a critical, so I reset". There are so many times back when I used to watch him that he would do shit like choose Double Edge while using a Fighting against a Rock type, instead of the obvious Super Effective FIGHTING MOVE, & would lose, then say "Yeah this Pokémon is terrible". No, Jrose, YOU are the one that sucks. YOU are the one consistently making mistakes because your head is stuck so far up your own ass you've turned yourself inside out.
@@maestro9765 I hate to be the one to break your immersion, but literally every challenge runner is obnoxious and annoying. Can you beat dark souls at level 1 with gear that over-encumbers you and a weapon you don't meet the requirements for? Yes, obviously. Can you beat a pokemon game with really weird and obtuse rules you already studied guides for to make a script for? Yes, obviously. It's stupid brainrot for stupid people. It's easy content to produce, it gets views and comments, it's easy to research and plan for, the answer is obvious, and everyone saw how easy it is to mimic this style for money.
This truly is the Pokemon video of all time
FlygonHG is in shambles
FlygonHG > MDB or jrise11
This is THE first recorded Pokémon run where the player wins at the end. I can't believe I get to witness it myself.
“Super effective recoil” can be very dangerous. I lost my Hitmonchans only run recently to crit, super effective recoil from Dragon Ascent. 😢
Honestly the unspoken hero of this run is the lvl.2 bidoof. Without its emotional support you might have had to use your lvl. 100 Shiny Arceus
This is one very specific RUclipsr and I’m actually crying
It's actually a mix of Flygon & Jrose11 😅
Man, we should get this SuperWailordFan12 guy to run the channel instead. So much better than that *other* guy!
Unfortunately SuperWailordFan12 had an aneurysm and died instantly while attempting this challenge in Pokemon Black 2. His last wish was that I publish this video in his honor. I'm sorry you had to find out this way :(
“He has mold breaker and I don’t know what that means” 😂
"Cranidos has Mold Breaker. I have no idea what that means" LMAO
Brilliant parody. The more you look at it and the more you notice new details. Absolutely hilarious.
This was so tense. I was so worried that you might have to use a revive in the fight against Cynthia.
Congrats on beating a pokemon game, don't think I've ever seen someone do that.
