The rare candies are an excellent compromise. You get to safeguard your health and we get to see you still suffer for a Giovanni fight. Win-win situation!
Keep it up man, we love you.
I’ve been enjoying your videos for years now and never commented before but I wanted to say I’m very glad you’re looking out for your health and rare candy-ing up instead of doing intense grinds. Keep up the good work!
I've might've commented before but it's probably either something I'd delete in an instant or just "this is cool :>" so I'd probably rather say same lol
Was about to comment the same! Watching him grind at normal speed for so long was agonising. Props to him for actually being able to do it but happy he's making it easier now.
@Lucy Not the person you’re asking but yes, their pfp is from K-On
With fossil did you take
@Gabriel Scott I took the Helix Fossil. I knew that if I didn't say what I took, you'd all ask. Actually now that I think about it, everyone would ask anyway. Comments are good for the RUclips algorithm.
I found it funny that he wrote off Voltorb for a bit, and then it was so high a level. Also funny given that Lt. Surge's partner in Pokémon Masters is actually Electrode.
He still had Voltron wrote off even to the end baisically, that's why it was such a high level, it needed to be to be useful, it being the highest level meant it was the worst on the team at the endgame
I remember playing LeafGreen with a team of randomly generated Pokemon. Voltorb was easily one of my main Pokémon in that run(probably 2nd strongest).
@@066kshitizvsingh4 yea voltorb and electrode are very often slept on when it comes to team building, but it makes sense that mdb doesn't respect them since they're pretty bad in solo runs.
its ability to deal with key threats alone makes it worth it, since nothing out speeds electrode, you can always get off thunder wave and you also have a good chance to live one hit (due to how EVs work in gen-1) so you can then switch out to keep electrode in play as a revenge killer OR you can explode on said key threat, whichever you prefer.
MDB: "I'm pretty sure I won't be using Voltorb after the early game..."
**Ground-type appears**
MDB: "SAVE ME, VOLTORB!!!"
You probably could have avoided any confusion about which Pikachu was allowed to use which moves, if you had given one of them the nickname „Raichu“ ;-)
Exactly haha
Also, because it's hilarious
Moden problems require modern solutions
Or just teaching Raichu bide or something
Pikatwo
Although I'm sure having 2 Pikachu early on was nice, since there's no move deleter in gen 1 you could've just boxed one Pikachu before it hit level 9, and it would only have Thunder Shock and Growl, and then hit it with a Thunder Stone and teach it Thunderbolt by TM.
The problem is that Pikachu (future Raichu) is going to be the main source of damage after getting the TM for Thunderbolt. Holding off on training it completely until the Thunder Stone is available in Celadon City means an even bigger grind to catch up levels until the mid 20's. Better to have it available throughout the early part, especially after Lt. Surge's gym when it gets Thunderbolt in its kit.
Pikachu is not exclusive to the Viridian Forest, it can also be found at the Power Plant (though that’s post-surf). Voltorb is also found there, but it can also be encountered pre-surf on route 10, which includes a northern patch of grass in RBYFRLG.
That is what I came here to say too. Searched the comments before lol.
Voltorb was the "flash friend" just before rock tunnel in the patch of grass north of the cave entrance.
Not in Yellow. In Red, Blue, Fire Red, and Leaf Green Voltorb can be found in Route 10 but not in Yellow.
Edit: I know it doesn't apply to this run but you had it in your abbreviation.
@@tinkerer3399 You are correct. In Yellow, Magnemite appears in its place. Though looking back that version list was supposed to be about the grass patch, which is part of route 9 instead in GSC/HGSS.
thank you for FINALLY using the Candies for levelling :)
as you said, it makes no real difference other than being more convenient for you and I'm all for that, you make great content and don't deserve having to sit there for hours grinding
MDB, I *need* to know what fossil you picked. It's integral to the entire atmosphere of my Saturday afternoon. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight if I don't find out.
Still waiting for a run where he says he grabs a fossil from a different gen, just to troll us (ie in a FRLG run he grabs the Skull Fossil or the Root Fossil)
@@gabrielnnaufal oh my god that would be so funny. i bet half of the people watching wouldn't even notice
@@gabrielnnaufal I'm like 80% sure he did it once, I just can't remember which episode it was.
Obvs the dinner fossil he always takes that one XD
Thank you for finally using RARE CANDIES MDB! 🙏
I had no idea Fissure was based on Base Speed in Gen 1. I love that I'm still learning new things about these games after all these years.
21:33 - Correction - it's actually the Speed stat, not base speed. If you are trying to one-hit kao enemy Pokemon, but are slower, you can use x speed and then you are able to one hit KO then
I love NPC trainer team challenges (this style and for shiny hunts lol), Surge's move pool is.......... sad
The Exp Share is in gen 1. It was called the ExpAll then, with the expected effect, but you need 50 pokemon in your pokedex.
This game is first generation, items cannot be held.
He knows it exists
@@RobinTheMetaGod it's not held, ot is a passive item that sits in your inventory
Should have used more X Speeds. That would have totally made things easier. ;D Glad to see you use some of them while fighting that rattata at the end, clearly helped speed up the battle.
What an electrifying video. The results were truly shocking!
😲 ⚡️
I really like these kind of challenges, make for a nice change of pace from the solo runs! Turned out less painful than I expected to be honest :')
Also, hearing you describe the plumbing problem with your own words was fantastic at the end XD
I really love your videos! So glad you're getting better. I know hinde sights always 20/20 but if you'd names the second Pikachu 'Raichu' when capturing it, may have avoided some confusion. Keep going pal, looking forward to your streams coming back when your able (the ones I can catch being in the UK)
6:38 “We can one-shot.”
Proceeds to 3-hit KO
If it was up to me, I'd throw a four-sided dice each turn in battle before I pick my moves, if it lands on a certain number, I must use X Speed that turn
It's gonna be agonizing, but it might be "fun"
Someone else in the comments suggested trying to mimic Lt Surge’s AI, and it gave me an idea. What if, instead using of a particular Pokémon or team for a challenge run, you used an NPC trainer’s AI? For example, you could do a “Blaine’s AI” run, where you have to roll a die/generate a random number before each turn and that determines your move (say, roll of 1 = use a full heal, roll of 2-3 = use a status/stat-lowering move, etc). You could pick your own team and moves to add some strategy into it, as long as their move sets contained one of each type of move the AI needs to select from.
Fantastic challenge idea, executed very well. As usual, stay healthy, stay happy! Can't wait to watch more of your Lord of the Rings gameplay though, checking that playlist daily haha
You should try a wrestling moves only run where you only use attacks that are similar to wrestling moves. In my head I see Tackle as a Spear, moves like Bind or constrict as submissions, Double team as a reference to tag teams. Plus you have access to a lot of fighting type moves and of course - Body Slam.
I'm so happy to see your health improving and videos coming out again! Can I make one request though? You never tell us which fossil you choose when you go through Mt. Moon. Can you start doing that in your videos I think it would be a fun little detail.
YAY SHINX CHALLENGE YAYAYAYAYAYAY IVE BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THIS
Whether OHKO moves can hit or not isn't based on base speed but the actual current speed stat.
"We can one-shot most of the Trainers here." He says, as the Pikachu is shown to need 3 turns, then 2, to defeat two Pokémon.
Thank you for posting these videos. I look forward to these on Saturdays and they really make my afternoon. I help take care of my 2 nephews every weekend and 1 is on the autism spectrum and fighting cancer so these videos help more than you can imagine
I still think you should replace the "Helix Fossil" scene with a snippet of you doing it in Gen 3, just to see if people notice - without even acknowledging it, of course 😂
Health > Vidja Gaems
You made the right decision my guy.
I'm so glad I listen to the end because hearing you try to describe that plumbing problem was hilarious
I love this concept. Thanks for the content!
Amazing episode man! Thanks more making my rough morning a whole lot better!
Having not watched this yet, Giovanni seems like he’ll be brutal. At least it’s not Yellow version.
Edit: pikachoose is what happens when you have a pikachu and eevee in your party when you find the only thunder stone in the game.
Actually, had he used Surge's team from Yellow, the run might've been easier, as he'd be using a lone Raichu with Thunderbolt, Mega Punch and Mega Kick.
@@DarkEinherjar true, but four members on gio’s team would have ‘good’ ai and know earthquake
Minor error-in Red and Blue, you can actually catch Voltorb in the grass patch outside of Rock Tunnel.
Perfect, this video dropped on my lunch so i can watch it >:)
Very excited for this run!
Good that you used Rare Candies instead of grinding all those hours! Health is more important! Really looking foward to your next challenge! Platinum is an amazing game!
i love the segment where mdb just talks at the end, cool as hell
Glad you're being health-conscious. Literally no one wants you to hurt yourself doing these. I loved this video. Using a themed team is a fun dynamic. I love the single Pokemon Challenges but finding a way to use a team was cool. Only problem is, which fossil did you take? I know you can't use it but it would be cool if you said it every time.
Game 61 with fossils that I ask you to take the fossil opposite the one you said you took just to see who notices.
Oooh this was a fun one ❤ how do you feel about Pokemon Gold/Crystal with Whitney's team tho?
Ever since I saw the guy run simulated battles between all the trainers in the game I've been curious how many trainers would be able to get how far in the game. This is right up that alley!
Can you be Brock, Misty, etc next please? That would be really fun to watch
Loved the gag of using a ton of X Speeds on Rattata at the end lol
This run seemed like a lot of fun! using the pokemon of an opponent is a cool concept!
"The twisty thing next to the turny bit" 😂 that sounds about on par with my level of handyman knowledge
I hereby request a promotion for Lt Surge.
And speaking of Electric types, I request Pokemon B2W2 With Only One Chinchou.
Nice one! This was fun.
Here’s a good trick when you’re using a Pokémon with the guts ability: keep it poisoned off of a wild Pokémon with something like poison gas and give it leftovers to counter the poison damage and keep the attack boost
I'm glad you went with the rare candy method!
To make it more authentic, you should have randomly used an X-Speed 25% of the time like Lt. Surge.
15:45 Holy moly, Guard Spec. being useful, now I have seen it all.
Couple of Challenges for ya MDB:
-Trying to beat Pokemon Black with a team of only 1 Patrat? (Naming it "Bidoof?" is also a good nickname idea for it... and making it be in place of Snivy would give you Emboar... probably the hardest to fight)
- Trying to beat Pokemon Soul Silver with a Team of only 1 Magby might be fun but would make Bugsy an absolute BREEZE...
- Trying to beat Pokemon White with only One Barboach could be hard.. if you choose to replace the Starter with the one that gives you Cilan as the first gym leader
- Trying to beat Pokemon X with a team of only one Binacle (could be interesting since I haven't seen ya do Gen 6 Runs)
Nice video. Do what you gotta do for your health man and we will keep enjoying videos!
These challenges always make my Saturday.
Jrose approves of this run hahaha. What a blast this was to watch well done
1:57 "I can't let my lip get in the way of work" truly inspirational
The X Speed ending is great! Thanks MDB.
I was REALLY going to complain here about your health, but than I got to the part of the ground gym.
Good to see you taking really care if yourself, MDB.
PS.: more health updates, please
Hey MDB, loved this run! This was far and away a better run than your Blaine run! Well done!
Also, I DEFINITELY support you hacking in Rare Candies. Keep taking care of yourself man, your health is important.
Looking forward to the next run, Luxray is one of my favorite electric types, and Shinx is adorable. I think that run is going to be hard, but enjoyable.
Also, love the technical descriptions of your plumbing issues at the end there... "The turny knob thing" is now my favorite description, and I will find ways to insert that phrase into my daily vocabulary now.
Keep it up bud, see you in the next one!
The weather is so weird here too. My daughter and I has a snowball fight in shorts and a tshirt last weekend. It was 26°C here. That has to be a first for me.
That hot week here was rough. Now im really enjoying the cool rainy weather haha
glad you saw the way of the rare candy, and this was a good challenge.
On behalf of your well being, thank you for using the rare candies to still provide amazing content brother; stay well! And thanks for the great videos!
Suggestion for an easy run: do a hacked raichu run in Pokémon red or yelllow, by that I mean one that knows surf from the behginung!
this was fun alittle surprised about the use of rare candies since i thought they weren´t allowed til postgame i might´ve missed a point there anyway glad you beat that
I enjoy this theme teams and solo runs ideas.
4:20
You’re right.
The plural of every Pokémon is the same as the singular.
One Pikachu, two Pikachu.
One Swellow, two Swellow.
One Rayquaza, two Rayquaza.
1:20 Chekov's XSpeed 🤣
I’m actually curious to see how this run would be in Fire Red, since you said that the Ground gym would be even more of a nightmare. The movesets also get a lot more interesting. While Raichu loses Thunderbolt, the whole team gets access to Shock Wave, which is much weaker, but at least it can’t miss. Aside from that, Voltorb still has Screech, Tackle, and Sonic Boom, Raichu gets Quick Attack, and both Raichu and Pikachu get Growl swapped out for Double Team.
Well I'll at least assume the Giovanni fight just becomes double team spam
Hey MDB! Great enjoyable content! Will you be doing this with every gym leader in Kanto? Would be cool man
literally the EXACT same rhydon fissure scenario happened in my pikachu only run of red a couple weeks ago lol, pretty funny to see it again here
@MahDryBread, I am going to a concert this weekend and I need a new shirt for it, and I finally used Khimyra! The shirt looks super cool and I'm very excited now. I'm glad I was able to support the channel and look good while doing it!
Also, p-traps are incredibly easy to fix. You can just replace the part.
Plumbing surprisingly isn't very complicated. I worked at a motel as maintenance/housekeeping. I learned that a lot of people have no idea how their toilets work.
I have no prior experience as maintenance. I basically had the brute force figure out how plumbing, HVAC, and electrical wiring works alone.
I did get zapped really good by an a/c outlet once. When I told the property owner, he was more surprised that I was alive and the outlet "let me go." My right arm had even more nerve ending issues for about a week.
Every time I pointed with my index, I felt like electricity was shooting out. 😅
love yo vids mdb
I'm excited for the run you do with Blaine's team when you have to modify the game to let you use a healing item whenever you want and have to choose your moves by rolling a d4.
I never knew Growl could be so useful. Nice strategy!
Lol the ending with the X Attack XD
my favorite outro so far
Adding to what I hope are a deluge of comments mentioning that the Rare Candy usage is a blessing. Thank you for taking care of your health. The video didn't suffer at all because of the usage, if anything getting to see every fight at a new 5 level multiple was *more* interesting than a jump cut with "Ten levels later, On the twenty-third try, we got THIS lucky run" (Not that that's bad, mind. :P)
Seriously though. You've gone way out of your way to make sure these challenges are as 'fair' as possible, and as hard as possible for yourself already. (Look at Exeggutor!) and rare candies don't detract anything but the time investment, and I don't think anyone watches to hear "I spent the next three days fighting zubats to get to level 55".
Please please please use rare candies whenever you're okay doing so, especially if it's for your health.
A gen 1 mono-poison run could be fun. Gives you the opportunity to use some less popular mons like Venomoth, Muk, Weezing, and Arbok. I would say to use Koga's team, but his team is pretty catered toward evasion strats, which might make things a bit too easy. If a normal poison run is too easy, you could either do first forms only or only pure poison types.
I think its so funny that in the Giovanni gym battle, your strongest by far pokemon, is the designated growl spammer and the 2 much weaker ones are actually the ones taking the bosses down. This is why pokemon is great, there are so many unique situations you can find yourself in, even in the most limited generation.
I would love to see more the gym leader runs can’t wait to see more
You called it at the start of the video the grief you had with Exegutor XD
sending you positive thoughts and support as always :)
Week 80: would you be able to beat Pokémon Crystal with a team of only one Porygon
MDBAMA: would you ever consider doing runs in legends Arceus?
I think Pokémon plurals and singulars are like Deer. “It’s a Pikachu!” “It’s multiple Pikachu!” Funnily enough, the name Pokemon works that way too, being both plural and singular.
My suggestion for a fun run: Pokémon Gold, but I can only use Whitney's team. This could turn out pretty fun/easy, so GL.
I’m convinced Blaine doesn’t even want to be a gym leader, that’s why his AI os so bad. He’s a scientist. Being a gym leader is just a source of income.
Congrats on taking the candy pill. In all honesty in any challenge where grinding is possible rare candies just saves time. Worst case scenario you miss out on ev or stat exp, but ev training/using stat xp boosting items should be fine.
For the plural question (4:15), you got it right: the plural of Pikachu is still Pikachu. Pokemon are like sheep or deer: the plural is the same as the singular no matter whether you have one Dragonite or a dozen Dragonite.
13:19 “Shockingly” 😏
Looking forward to seeing you do this challenge in Fire Red 😂
The ability to use X-Speed is really good. Gives you badge boost powers. Also would have prevented Dugtrio from being able to OHKO you.
MDB has been producing quality content for years.
As a plumber I’m definitely going to start calling it the turny knob thing now 👍😅. Also I wish I lived closer to MDB, woulda fixed ur sink for free for all the amazing content you provide us ❤
I need a Qwilfish!
Still holding out for a Qwilfish 'til the end of the run!~ 🎵
"Rolls dice and decides to use one (xSpeed)" would actually make a fun/frustrating challenge imo. Like, having to roll a dice for your every action. Get a good encounter? Too bad, you rolled to run. About to faint? Too bad, you didn't roll to switch OR potion. Need a specific move to claim victory? If you're lucky enough to roll Fight, you still have only a 25% chance to roll your winning move.
I think this kind of challenge might be TOO cruel, though lmao
Plural of Pikachu is Pikachi, I think. Haven't said this in awhile, but thanks for the videos! 😄
We basically have the same weather now. Last weekend I still had to free my car from snow, this weekend I (as someone who is extremely sensitive to cold) am walking around wearing a t-shirt.
I think it says something about Surge that I had a moment where I was legitimately confused by the appearance of the Voltorb in a later combat. And I've watched more than just a few RGBY players' vids.
fun video like always. would have loved to see a Pokemon Black/White or Black/White 2 with only a Sandile
