I feel like allowing the pokemon to evolve even if you have to restrict them to evolve late makes sense as most late game rocket grunts do have evolved pokes. respect for playing through the game with unevolved pokes tho.
@@serge2cool I have seen enough runs from other people to say that's is inaccurate because limiting your team moves and being strategic with evolved forms is better than just power leveling, and besides the challenge he has proposed is "Can you beat the game as a Rocket Grunt" not "Can you beat the game as a Rocket Grunt from Mount Moon"
I wish they made a Pokémon Video game where it lets you play as Team Rocket (Jessie, James and Meowth) the whole time, your goal is to dominate the entire world and that will be a fantastic game.
You should do a series of playing through with the champion's team, but unevolved. So in Red, you would use: pidgy, abra, ryhorn, magicarp, eggecute, charmander. You could swap the charmander for a growlith, to fit the possible teams your rival would have without a starter.
It must cost you a lot of hours to finally bet the game without evolving. And still you past the challenge with determination. You deserve a subscribe!
I love this idea! I always wanted a game totally focused on an evil team. It's why Colosseum will forever be my favorite Pokemon game. It's the only game where you're a bit of an anti-hero

Hey zwiggo your a small channel but you really are a good on too. Ive only been watching you since 300k but when you get to 1 mill ill be able to say proudly that im an “og” subscriber. Thanks for always putting a smile on my face and putting in hard work. Much love zwig
Nice, I liked it! Would be cool if you went a bit over the plot of the rom hack too, I've heard of it but don't know much. Could be cool to try this team in a regular game too.
Just followed step by step and it worked. Thanks fam. One thing that tricked me up was downloading the right MGBA for my computer. Im not tech savvy, but the second downloaded one "windows installer" worked for me
Jessie- Listen is that twerp voice I heard James- it's speaks to me loud and clear Jessie- pass the wind James- beyond the stars Meowth- in your ear Jessie- bring chaos and neck pace( sorry brain fart) james- dashing hope put fear in its place Jessie- a rose by any other name is just a sweet James- where anything worse our work is complete Jessie- Jessie!!! James- James!! Meowth- meowth that's my name Jessie- putting the do gooder in their place All- were team rocket and we're in your face
Did you ever play Gen 2? If so then you would know for sure that Team Rocket (especially in that game) frequently also use Grimer/Muk which I remember because I really enjoyed wrecking them with my Espeon.

@@ernest292 Bulbapedia seems to be down, and I haven't played FRLG to completion, but Machop was fairly common in Rocket Teams. And as the other user said they use all of them, that wouldn't surprise me.
It's just so frustrating that you don't evolve anything. I get it's for *challenge*. But I just don't get the point if you have to rely on haxx or powerlevel through obstacles like gyms and such. It's just not fun to watch. And I can hardly see how you'd be able to find enjoyment in doing it. So what's the deal ?
I was considering doing this run, thing is we know now that pretty much ANY pokemon can beat fire red ort basically any game at level 100, so more than 1 pokemon is a sure thing. still fun
There’s only one Rocket member who owns a Cubone. It’s one of the Rocket Brothers from Sliph Co. Cubone is my fav Pokèmon so I tend to notice who has one on their team in the games. Especially if it’s with someone who typically wouldn’t have one like a Rocket Grunt
So, Red maintained the Championship about as long as Blue did. That's kind of amusing that the title had three people holding it all on the same day. Also: A suggestion: Try a playthrough as one of the Gym Leaders now. Pick one and only use the team they confront the player with.
depends, do you just want to use their pokemon or do you also want to suck like them (pick the wrong moves, refuse to evolve your pokemon, be critically underleveled)
Drowzee had multiple anime appearances where team rocket used one to hypnotize and steal entire cities of pokemon, was a key member in the only other named rocket team in all of pokemon: butch and Cassidy! Plus refusing to evolve?! Smh
I know it wouldn't have been practical due to time and all but I would've loved to see the dialogue between the gym leaders and the player as a rocket member.
My team is pretty high level
*Worried level 8 snek noises intensifies*
I just can't possibly understand the logic of the universal infinity to the power of 5 times by pi of why you don't have 1 mil subs
That is what I thought

That was a paraphrased Fire Emblem meme right?
Yeah, that was perplexing. Similar with the lv 4 rattata against the onix. Them losing should be fairly obvious
I feel like allowing the pokemon to evolve even if you have to restrict them to evolve late makes sense as most late game rocket grunts do have evolved pokes. respect for playing through the game with unevolved pokes tho.
Mixed on this.... It'd be far less interesting to watch with evolved mons.

Why just not evolve them. Even Jesse and James pokemon were evolved
That's what I was wondering? Like in game they evolve their pokemon.
Just one ekans remember?
Jessie and James aren't regular grunts, they're clearly a lot more respected.
I guess because that'd be too small of a challenge.
That what I was thinking
Isn't Grimer a Rocket pokemon too? But then again, you'd have to rely on Crobat for flying and no surfer either..

You should do a series of playing through with the champion's team, but unevolved. So in Red, you would use:
pidgy,
abra,
ryhorn,
magicarp,
eggecute,
charmander.
You could swap the charmander for a growlith, to fit the possible teams your rival would have without a starter.

Fun fact. In Japan, purple is the colour of death, sadness and funerals. (Team rockets Pokémon are purple, Lavender town is purple too.)

Dude amazing as always. You make pokemon stay fun.

Its gonna make the game boring
team plasma always uses pokemon from nearby routes so you'd be recatching your team every route
Great vid. And you should try chansey gen1

Did you ever play Gen 2? If so then you would know for sure that Team Rocket (especially in that game) frequently also use Grimer/Muk which I remember because I really enjoyed wrecking them with my Espeon.

There are a few Pokemon you could've added to your Team Rocket team...you mentioned Drowzee and Meowth, but you forgot about Grimer, Machop, and Sandshrew!

Evolve the pokemon
at those levels grunts in that game have evolved pokemon
