Hey everyone! Glad you all enjoyed the run! It was a ton of fun to do and I love reading everyone's comments. If you'd like to follow me on Twitch, I do a ton of runs of this game (Any% and other categories)! You can find me here: twitch.tv/eddaket
Best run I've ever seen. I love the whole commentary so much! Very informative while don't getting dry at all. And of course the fun you guys made AND clearly had. I always love runs where the runner and the couch just having fun and joking around. The crowd gets usually more involved in those runs and commentaries and that also brings a really great atmosphere with it. Only run that came close to this amount of fun was the Super Mario Odyssey run by Bayleef @AGDQ2019 which also was just a fun run. Greetings from Germany ;D
this game is quite hard to do bad on tho it kinda forces you to speed through it (if you are used to grinding on red/blue/fire red/ leaf green) with a team you like (not an op team on purpose)
I'm 30 minutes in and this is already the highlight of the marathon VODs for me. Great banter from the couch, all the stuff with Onyx in Mt Moon was cracking me up.
Stuff like this just makes me think who the _f**k_ is donating for this??? Who just has hundreds and thousands of extra dollars lying around to donate to "petting" a series of pixels on a screen???? Sure, it's "for charity", but seriously who tf just has hundreds and thousands lying around burning a hole in their pocket???
This run and Keizaron's Crystal run were some of my favorites of the entire event. The couches were great and also the donation trains they started were awesome!
I was the one who put the donation in for the team rocket voices, I honestly wasn’t expecting the voice too, and I was getting ready for work when I heard the donation and excited cause it was the first donation I put it that got aired and those voices, the announcer did,.
I know it's been forever, but he was actually wrong. There are 8 moves Eevee can learn, including a Fairy-type move called Sparkly Swirl (90 base power + applies the effects of a Full Heal to every Pokemon in the party)
Lesson learned: when you tell a crowd to yell something, they will do it. They will never forget. They will yell Dio until the end of time. They will count past infinity.
When I think of Lorelei, my head turns all around. As gentle as a butterfly, she moves without a sound. I call her on the telephone, she says be here by 8. Tonight's the night she's moving in and I can hardly wait.
Great run, really fun couch interactions. Funny how when he metioned catching the Mewtwo in the Snorlax fight, my mind jumped to 20 years ago. Where I gold my friend with Pokémon Blue I wasted his masterball, and he spend 4 days catching a 1 pixel health Mewtwo. Good Pokémon memories
I really like the energy on the couch for this one. This whole video is such a fun combination of wholesomeness and skill. Really glad it turned out like this. Such a fun time.
I rolled my eyes at Keizaron's whole "bulbasaur" thing without knowing its cry. I then realized that Bulba is one of my 2 favorite mons and I have NO IDEA what it sounds like.
Man these 3 runs where so enjoyable. Good vibes good laughs good runs, shenenagans on the couch with all his knowledge, great crowd who all are passionate about this. Eddaket keizaron pokeguy dabomstew and shenenegans thankyou all!!!
So I usually like learning useful mechanics and such before I ever play a game, but preferably not through videos that show story progress. Shiny hunting and general grinding are great sources for that so I was gonna click off after a little bit. That said, this turned out to be one of the most enjoyable speedruns I've ever watched and it was full of incredibly useful info right at the beginning. Once I finally get a Switch, this will be the first game I play and it'll be far more fun to play through because of this speedrun tbh. Loved it! Thanks to the runner and the couch for a great time.
who the heck was reading the donations for this because my guy you're phenomenal! The "pet the Eevee" stuff was already funny but you hyped it up like no other!
Imagine being the chosen one to take down a team trying to rule the world, getting the trust put in you by the president of a company, then not even five minutes later you use the masterball he gave you on a PSYDUCK... 2:29:50
Still one of my favorite GDQ runs of all times. So much fun and a pretty impressive time from Eddaket despite all the BS'ing around :) Also, Keizaron is a gem to the speedrunning community! Having him on the couch or playing ensures alot of fun (and a not so optimal run)!
Fun fact: In the champion battle, if your rival uses a full restore it says "You used a full restore" Also it makes the rival name all caps for some reason...
Actually, from what I've remembered, the second version was originally going to be Psyduck, but they changed it to Eevee because Psyduck and Pikachu are both Yellow.

This has become like my favourite GDQ run ever

It was awesome, thank you !
This was a really entertaining GDQ run! You guys are total goof balls and I was laughing out loud consistently. Also learned a lot about the game.
This run was insane between the Eevee pets, Psyduck, shiny,name picking and other messing around this run is still in the top 20
This man got a time that would put him at #17 on the leaderboard for this category even with all the screwing around he did. Super impressive!
and it was perfectly fine as he already has wr, so he could just relax and have fun for the run.
@@clickbait3753 not anymore lmao, a few days can change a lot
Goes to show that the game is still fairly new and there is a lot of wiggle room in those records.

I love that Eevee is finally about to be pet and the dialogue says “John Cena has a curiously triumphant expression.”
JOHN CENA KNOWS ALL
1:06:53 For the "pet the Eevee" donation train.
SO HHYYPPPEE !!
1:01:27 is what brought it all on.
He had to know that would happen.
Legit, probably the most hype part of the run xD
That train was amazing 😂😂😂
"Someone left these drawers open, that's irresponsib- Oh my god, there's a hole in the wall!"
This is why they didn't make detective Eevee
49:56
I'm 30 minutes in and this is already the highlight of the marathon VODs for me. Great banter from the couch, all the stuff with Onyx in Mt Moon was cracking me up.
yeah I loved the 'pet the eevee' donations... that was like at least $5k just to pet a virtual creature, yet they didn't donate to save a shiny...
He was pretty fast.
$4000+ donated to PET F'ING EEVEE only that type of magic can happen at an event like gdq. So blessed.
Have you seen the MARIO 3D donation for toad, if not search it up

This run was really entertaining. I like that the runner humoured the crowd several times in their shenanigans
The URL ending in "Go" is perfect.
Underrated comment.
This run and Keizaron's Crystal run were some of my favorites of the entire event. The couches were great and also the donation trains they started were awesome!
This run was great to watch. I loved when 6 different people donated 500$ for the Eevee to be pet XD
8
All-time
3:21:20 Major props to the announcer - Krunchylex, I think? - for putting SO much effort into imitating the Team Rocket voices!
I was the one who put the donation in for the team rocket voices, I honestly wasn’t expecting the voice too, and I was getting ready for work when I heard the donation and excited cause it was the first donation I put it that got aired and those voices, the announcer did,.
Was scrolling to watch the next run on RUclips and i heard his meowth impression that was wayyy yoo goid
It sounds totally like a bunch of friends shooting the shit. I'm not used to this happening during a run.
Marsman Pokemon runs are the best
@@qwertziop0 Such a good run!!
If you liked this, check the Pokemoni Crystal run
Well, it is a nintendo game.... they are about "togetherness".... usually....
Those are my favourite runs
What an amazing runner, going out of his way to please the chat. This is why I love GDQ.
go to 1:06:54 for the most important part of the run
PET... THAT... EEVEE!
"Eevee eventually gets 7 of these moves, one for each of its evolutions"
*Cries in Sylveon*
I know it's been forever, but he was actually wrong. There are 8 moves Eevee can learn, including a Fairy-type move called Sparkly Swirl (90 base power + applies the effects of a Full Heal to every Pokemon in the party)
This was SUCH an enjoyable run. More runners and couch people should be like this. I laughed so much and this 3 hours went by like nothing.
Lesson learned: when you tell a crowd to yell something, they will do it. They will never forget. They will yell Dio until the end of time. They will count past infinity.
Laaapoi ! GREEN FLAME
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOORB
When I think of Lorelei, my head turns all around.
As gentle as a butterfly, she moves without a sound.
I call her on the telephone, she says be here by 8.
Tonight's the night she's moving in and I can hardly wait.
as gentle as a butterfree
2:08:20 for the shiny Raticate!
"Should we run away from it?"
Audience: "NO!!!"
Awesome run, guys!
Yet they let it die
I love that he instantly calls in the support trainer for the catch rate boost
This was the funnest run I saw so far this year. I love when the audience gets involved in a constructive way. The donation trains were hilarious.
3:22:59 - Glad I watched the bit after the run as well, the announcer was on fire! Nice voice, man.
TIL the name they gave their ponyta, "Canicule", is French for Heat Wave! Fitting and pretty cool
probs the work of the french restream
I love how Keizaron is casually holding Terriermon during a pokemon speed run.
Bryce Short shiny lopuny
Very shiny lopuny.
ive watched this so many times, and im still always coming back to it. its quite possibly my favorite run of all time.
Watched this run live. Pretty funny. This SGDQ was just super entertaining all around. Thanks for all the hard work, GDQ staff and runners
I think this might very well be my favorite run of the whole marathon, which is really saying something considering how good this GDQ was
"Steve Irwin, Dio, and John Cena"
"The most ambitious cross-over"
Like five minutes in and this is already awesome.
You fool! You thought it was Blue, but it was I, DIO!
@@aaronstephen3058 what
The fact that 6 people paid $500 so he would pet the Eevee is beautiful.
*I'm so proud of this community*
Scratch that, over 6
Sometimes, you just gotta ask x)
8
I just love all it took to get a casual $4k in the pool for charity in one donation read was to deny the Eevee some pets.
Keizaron and Eddaket legit caused great Donation Trains.
Gotta love Keiz sitting there on the couch with Terriermon. XD
Edit - I came for the Keiz/Shen banter. I was not disappointed.
Easily one of the most entertaining runs I've ever gotten to enjoy watching! Great work to everyone involved.
This is easily my favorite run of SGDQ! Amazing job by the runner and couch, this is how every GDQ run should be.
Funnily enough I actually named my Rival 'Dio' in my Let's Go game, short for 'Dicks Oak' before I knew Blue was still cruising around elsewhere.
"Canicule" seems to be the French name of the move "heat wave", which I found a hilarious name choice. Gg to whoever snuck that in there
It does mean exactly that
This speedrun was a fun watch
This has to be one of the best thumbnails I've ever seen
Great run, really fun couch interactions. Funny how when he metioned catching the Mewtwo in the Snorlax fight, my mind jumped to 20 years ago. Where I gold my friend with Pokémon Blue I wasted his masterball, and he spend 4 days catching a 1 pixel health Mewtwo. Good Pokémon memories
The moment he gives Keizaron the controller in the end is so epic.
Incredible entertaining run, by far one of the best at GDQ
Dio in a ship
*oh no*
GOODBYE JOJO
The last time that happened, a joestar died
SGDQ 2019 is one of my favorites just because of the amazing couch for the Pokemon runs
I really like the energy on the couch for this one. This whole video is such a fun combination of wholesomeness and skill. Really glad it turned out like this. Such a fun time.
"Shoutouts to the Raticate that's now dust."
HE'S BUTTER NOW, NO QUESTIONS!
For those of you that closed the video when the run ended. You missed out on some great singing:
3:23:00
That eevee petting moment made me very very happy
always love such an engaged couch
This was awesome! thank you so much GDQ for everything you guys are doing
2:08:16 - Shiny appears
2:32:24 - Psyduck capture for
In my first playthrough of LGE, I found a shiny Rattata in the room *right before* the one with that Raticate.
I rolled my eyes at Keizaron's whole "bulbasaur" thing without knowing its cry.
I then realized that Bulba is one of my 2 favorite mons and I have NO IDEA what it sounds like.
One of the best runs in GDQ history, funny from sstart to finish. And then the announcer goes into hype mode after the run is over!! Loved it
Man these 3 runs where so enjoyable. Good vibes good laughs good runs, shenenagans on the couch with all his knowledge, great crowd who all are passionate about this. Eddaket keizaron pokeguy dabomstew and shenenegans thankyou all!!!

OMG a shiny during a sgdq run, now that's incredible! 2:08:22
who the heck was reading the donations for this because my guy you're phenomenal! The "pet the Eevee" stuff was already funny but you hyped it up like no other!
“Steve Irwin my girl”
I died
1:07:06 Shoutout to the announcer for gettin it hyped for all the $500 donations that actually came in to pet the eevee this was amazing XD
This is on a short list of comfort gdq runs. Runs i watch again and again as theyre good the first time and great the second and third and...
Dio's face when he challenges you to the rival fight is genuinely DIO-ish XD 8:20
Best Dio would be Gladio from Sun/Moon.
500$ spams for "pet that Eevee", don't underestimate the power of cuteness.
I love the Terriermon / "Shiny Loppuny" plush! Also definitely one of my favorite "Pokemon". :-P
*Raises at least $300 for petting Eevee*
"JOHN CENA has a curiously triumphant expression." Amazing. XD
*$4000
Imagine being the chosen one to take down a team trying to rule the world, getting the trust put in you by the president of a company, then not even five minutes later you use the masterball he gave you on a PSYDUCK...
2:29:50
That's the power of love!
Peer pressure, too...
My man called it a PP Up Up but honestly if i was talking quick in front of a crowd i would too
He said PP Up, Up here. Basically meaning the PP up item was up there
You're damn right!
You were expecting Blue...
BUT IT WAS I, DIO!!!!!
Still one of my favorite GDQ runs of all times. So much fun and a pretty impressive time from Eddaket despite all the BS'ing around :)
Also, Keizaron is a gem to the speedrunning community! Having him on the couch or playing ensures alot of fun (and a not so optimal run)!
best gdq run I've ever seen by a country mile!
Shoutouts to Onix, the true hero of the run
The character throwing JOHN CENA into the battles never got old.
2:53:00 Who's here after Game Freak actually did give some love to Farfetch'd
That guy who donated must be super hyped
This is the most memetastic speedrun ever and I love it
Nostalgic. I LOVE GDQ so much
this was the best speed run eeveer,also 3:21:20 spot on impressions
I hope that person who donated Farfetch'd enjoyed that love they gave it for Sword!
Fun fact: In the champion battle, if your rival uses a full restore it says "You used a full restore" Also it makes the rival name all caps for some reason...
That's across the board, the game for some reason will always say "you used X" when your opponent uses an item.
43:00 - Funny think here is in a recent interview, it was confirmed that more playtesters preferred the eevee version. You could be on to something!
no replies? kinda suprising tbh.
Actually, from what I've remembered, the second version was originally going to be Psyduck, but they changed it to Eevee because Psyduck and Pikachu are both Yellow.
@@Rayuzx it’s kinda interesting how tiny little details like that all need to be factored in when considering mass marketing
For those who just care about the Shiny Raticate, it’s at 2:08:23
John Cena and Steve Irwin - the best combo
The group here and on the Crystal run are so much fun. I love listening to these guys' commentary.
A throwback to simpler times. Bless this run, so much fun to watch.
This might very well be my favourite run ever. Just some guys having fun,still going for like a top 20 time while doing all the goofing around.
eevee pats are the best donation incentive
The Psyduck catch with the masterball was one of the most funny and wholesome moments in any GDQ. One of the best runs ever in GDQ history.
Did you know that the Female playable character's name is Elaine, the boy is Chase, and the rival is Trace?
I can't find a shiny to save my life and he finds one during a speedrun on GDQ. Dangit.
Also, this was absolutely hilarious.
I like to think this Eevee is like Red’s Eevee where it can change to different evos and use all these moves
not even half way though and already know its going to be a great run, keep it up GDQ!
that u guys remember steve irwin still, warms my heart
I enjoy the fact that Keiz has a Terriermon with him!
SGDQ was awesome to watch as usual!
Arcanine is my favorite pokemon to this day. Every game that had it, was a must have 🔥 pokemon in my team.
1:07:00 That is the craziest donation spree I've ever seen just to PET THAT EEVEE!
26:22 hey Keizaron's crystal run was still amazing....just not for the reason he would hope.
Amazing run and amazing event. You can just love the GDQ!!
