OMG HE'S BACK!! In all seriousness Squidgy, seeing this post literally made my day. I discovered your channel during a time when I really needed some some positivity in my life, and your videos are just what I need. Hope you're feeling better and taking the time for yourself to recover!
There's something to be said for a lot of the more simplistic designs in the game; because they weren't overly-complicated, their personalities shone through a lot more.
Glad to have you back at it. We have all missed you! Glad you're feeling better! Also still wondering when you're going to be able to do the Victreebell re-run? Rowan/James needs a better run lol
Fun fact: A base 80 power Shadow Ball has less power than a 2x resisted Return with STAB + Pink Bow with max friendship (102 + 51 + 15.3 rounded down is 168, then 1/2 is base 84).
Personally on most Pokemon i opt for Headbutt over Slash because i find the flinch chance to be more valuable than a crit, espcially when you outspeed.
@@Squidgy one caveat is that the in game Pokemon have low DV's of 0 and 6 for a majority of trainers. I'm not familiar with your channel and if you modify it for perfect DV's: but especially then, you will outspeed a lot. Then factor in that the level curve in GSC is actually lit for solo runs, you usually end up about 10 levels over at the Elite 4 without grinding (exp curves vary). Pokemon with middling speed can outrun a lot more than they should. They both have their uses though. Slash has more PP like you said and can even cheese through resists without wasting PP like Headbutt.
welcome back, squidgy! we're all glad to see that you're back- hope your health is taking a turn for the better!

Honestly, so did I! It's great to see another person find him this way. He really is a lovely positive person to listen to.
That's very kind of you to say, thank you! I'm glad I've been able to put some positivity in your life, and I hope things are looking up for you :)
Persian has one of the slickest designs I've ever seen in Pokemon. It's just a big cat with a jewel on its head but there's beauty in slimplicity

WELCOME BACK SQUIDGY WE MISSED YOU AND ARE GLAD YOU’RE FEELING BETTER!!
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks, bud! I'm feeling a lot better!
Nice to see that you're back mate!
As someone that lives in Pittsburgh, it was wonderful to meet your HM friends. Send them my regards.
Wait your back? Welcome back mate we missed you hope you are much better 😁
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Persian run in Crystal! This is fun
Good to see you back 🎉 wish you good health!
Hope you're much better Squidgy!!!
I love Persian. One of the coolest looking Pokemon.
I think Meowth's slow learnset will hurt the run though
Good to have you back Squidgy
I wish it would of got something like "Huge power" or an item like thick club, to help it out
Great to see you back Squidgy! Hope you’re feeling better!
We missed you
I've really missed doing the runs, it's great to be back!
glad to see you back Squidgy!
7:45 the chance to flinch would definitely have been more useful than the infinite accuracy
SO thrilled to see you back, Squidge!
Hope you're mending well, pacing yourself, and loving all the love from your fans.
Glad to hear you got the.. eh hem.. thumbs up for your health to make this challenge for us today :)
This run was purrrrfect!
Welcome back! Happy that you're uploading (and hopefully doing better) again.
Glad to see you're doing better! Your health always comes first. Great run!
I'm glad you're feeling better. Welcome back!
Love all the gen 2 playthroughs! I've played through Crystal again twice since I started watching your videos lol.
Great video! Your voice is so nice to listen to during these runs whilst I do household chores! Keep it up :)
So grateful that you’re feeling better!
So glad to have you back sir! Been missing your content in my life ❤❤
Welcome back Squidgy! Good to see you again!!
I'm glad you're back and feeling better squidgy, the pokemon challenges were greatly missed!!
Great to have you back! I hope you'll stay healthy
Glad you are doing better!
Found your channel during your abscence, happy to see more runs of yours.
Squidgy: goes into the Dragon Gym. "That's exactly why we have Hidden Power ice".
Also Squidgy: Only uses normal Type moves
I don't know what possessed me to mention HP Ice at Clair instead of Lance, but I clearly am still rusty!
Welcome back. Glad you're doing better
Welcome back Squidgy! You have been missed!
So happy to see you back! Great content as always. Love the big cat too
HE'S BACK wishing you good health my brotha
Nice to have you back :)
Allways chill to listen to your commentary!
Also surprised how well Persian did, considering it's low BST
I was shocked at how well Persian did, it had no right to get into the top 10!
Glad to see you back Squidgy
Glad to hear you're feeling better. Really enjoy your videos! Can't wait for the next one.
Glad you're feeling a bit better!
Woot glad to have you back!!!!!
Glad to see you back stay well
Glad to see you back!
Return of the squidge !!!!! welcome back !!!

Glad to see you back, man.
Truly hope you’re doing better sir. Thank you for the great videos
Welcome back! This episode is gonna be the cats meow!
He returned when his people needed him most
Glad you are getting better
If u have any thumb issues, make sure to regularily massage the thenar eminence. Don't be afraid to give it a lot of pressure. It hurts, but works
Yay you're back. Looking forward to more videos
Glad your back
welcome back. we missed you
The king has returned
Welcome back my boy 🎉
The king has returned!
Catching back up and love out Kitkat's journey. Excited for more Squidgy videos to come! Maybe some nuzlocking on the horizon?
How about a painful Nuzlocke with the six slowest Pokémon?
15:23 was most definitely not HP ice lol. I'm impressed that return did so much damage though.
Return of the king
Been waiting 😈😈😈😊😊
Welcome back!!
Welcome Back!
Glad to have you back at it. We have all missed you! Glad you're feeling better! Also still wondering when you're going to be able to do the Victreebell re-run? Rowan/James needs a better run lol
Victreebel's gonna come when I'm in back in my stride!
@@Squidgy hope it's soon dude! Your fans need you at as close to 100% as can be!

No wonder you were gone for so long injuries of the hand are hard to heal because we use them so much in everyday life
Welcome back!
Hope you are doing better now! Dunno if you realized that you used Return instead of HP Ice against Clairs Dragonair?😜
Awesome run as always btw👌
Oh shoot, I did, didn't I?!
HE HAS RETURNED
The master is back!
Call it the Achaemenid challenge. Conquer the entire game as a Persian.
He's back 🔥
HES BACK
The once and future Squidge
Good run!
I feel like these runs you should start out with the fully evolved pokemon. This way we can see how it fairs against every gym/trainer.
KitKat did great against miltank 😮 I really like meowth, I even have it as stuffed animal 😊
That's a good kitty.
Happy to see a new Video 😂.
25:30
Would you say that he's... feeling blue?
Pittsburgh!?! And I missed them?? Blast it. I would have treated them to a sandwich with fries on it. 😂
I'll let them know they're owed some snacks next time they're in the area!
Hey man I live in Pittsburgh. Hello to the hm friends
Personally on most Pokemon i opt for Headbutt over Slash because i find the flinch chance to be more valuable than a crit, espcially when you outspeed.
Slash is definitely good on slower Pokémon, but that 30% flinch chance can clutch so many battles.
@@Squidgy one caveat is that the in game Pokemon have low DV's of 0 and 6 for a majority of trainers. I'm not familiar with your channel and if you modify it for perfect DV's: but especially then, you will outspeed a lot.

They both have their uses though. Slash has more PP like you said and can even cheese through resists without wasting PP like Headbutt.
Am i crazy or does the narration say you picked up hidden power ice for claire when you didnt even use it in the fight? I saw 3 return 1 shots lol.
Oh, you're not crazy at all! I just had a massive brain fart and started talking absolute rubbish!
I've miss you
15:20 If you watch and listen nothing lines up =]
I never realised that the scamulet coin also doubled your pay day winnings
It's funny you should mention that, as I'm recording something with a Persian at this exact moment!
VIP Squidgy
LET'S GO!!!
Didn't use Hidden Power Ice against a single dragonair . . . 3x Return . . KitKat = O.P.
I really don't know what possessed me to mention HP Ice at Clair instead of Lance, but I clearly am still rusty!
Good doggie
Macargo 😂😂😂
Here!!!!!
Nice
Iv subbed mate
Thanks Ian, I hope you enjoy the runs :)
A mediterranean diet will help fix some of your health problems, please consider my advice!
Arbok pls
