the reason pokemon seem harder to catch underground is because they changed it to where if you're a lower level than the wild pokemon it drastically lowers the catch rate

I would love to see you do the professor oak challenge for these remakes. Idk if I want to just see you suffer when you unlock the grand underground or if Im curious on how long it will actually take.
I was actually thinking about going through this myself, and the pokemon in the ground underground ( at least the beginning) are considerably leveled up compared to everything else so it makes leveling easier in the beginning
@@GreyCartridge the amount/different types available grows as you get farther in the game. What's available isn't in the national dex until after you get the national dex.
Actually, the strength and variety of Pokemon in the hideaways are determined by your game progress, specifically your badge count, when you become the champion, and when you get the National Dex. Edit: Okay, so I checked the wiki to fact check a reply I got recently, and it turns out I was partially wrong. The badge count and beating the Elite Four only affect the strength of Hideaway Pokemon. The variety is actually affected by five specific milestones, being obtaining Defog, Strength, the Icicle Badge, Waterfall, and the National Dex.

I wish more gym leader would use pokemon of different types like Volkner. Countering their weaknesses with counters adds a little bit of difficulty. Although they shouldn't be completely outlandish and follow a theme. Like colors, lore, benefit from weather if they use it (like using grass pokemon in fire type gym's) or the ability to learn moves of the gym leaders type.
@@yoiptree exactly 💯 %. Remember how the fire type elite 4 member only had 2 fire types? Infernape and rapidash. His others were lopunny, drifblim, and steelix. The diamond and pearl pokedex sucked in type coverage.
Not only can you get a Mew at the start, you can also get a Jirachi and Manaphy at the start. Before the 2nd gym you can have 3 mythicals on your team.
FYI, the game lets you get one guaranteed turn when encountering roaming Mespirit. You can use a slower pokemon with mean look and it will still hit before Mespirit flees. No need to use master ball!
My wife was divorcing me, and I thought I was going to lose everything: the house, the kids, everything. But this, this changed my life. Only mere seconds after opening the video I learned she had been in an accident, so now, I get to keep what I love most! Thank you johnstone, I can only imagine you had something to do with this :)
Can catch 500 Pokémon within 24 hours, but can’t complete a nuzlocke under 20 runs. Tough life, Mr. Stone. Edit: Just noticed this is at 487 likes. Can we stop at exactly 493 for the dex? Thanks y’all :)
I got SP when it came out and never got past the fighting gym. Now that I know of the Johnstone Skip, will I be going back to Pearl on stream sometime and using it? ABSOLUTELY.
i'm trying to complete a sinnoh dex and maybe even a national dex on BD/SP. i've loved every second of this game, it's so nostalgic for me and i think it is beautifully redone
Idk what the rest of these comments are on about, but John, this video not only changed my life, but ascended me into a new plane of existence. Great video
Great video man. Love the content 👌 I love how this one was so much easier than the originals and it boils down to exp share/mew/amulet coin. Good strats man
The location: Snowpoint Gym The commentary: Out of all the gyms this might be the easiest of them all because half of Maylene’s team is weak to Flamethrower. The reaction: Um, what?!
Welcome back John! You be completing 2 games + caught all but 2 species in 24h while I'm in Eterna city with 12h on my save file 'cuz I spent a lot of time in the underground xD
Great video, John. Gen 4 is one of the two generations I have very little experience with. So this will come in real handy for when I finally get some time to play it.
Honestly, I like the change for Spiritomb; The B2W2 xtransciever sidequest was just convoluted, and doing the marathon to get it from the Quiet Cave pokewalker course was just painful. At least ORAS made it a regular static encounter in the sunken ship postgame, but its a neat mon that got done dirty for such a randomly excessive way to obtain. Still not as bad as Porygon's evolutions at least...
@@TheWizardMus Only in B2/W2, but yes, the dropped item quest. After you do the ferris wheel meeting, somewhere around 30 to 50 calls, then they'll trade you for random hidden ability pokemon including a level 50 HA Spiritomb. Serebii explains everything and lists all the pokemon you can get, as there are some differences depending on your gender, but Spiritomb is one of the ones available to both. You actually get a pile of pokemon you can't get anywhere else from it, and its repeatable. Its one of the more tedious grinds for a PoC of the games...
@@Lordodragonss and the original quest didn't count npcs, only players. Yes, you could talk to the same person by leaving the underground every time, but you still needed to find someone to connect to with the DS wireless. Making it completely unobtainable for most people even when it was the current generation. The Pokewalker Quiet Cave 100,000 watt course being the more doable option should not be considered a good thing.
this video changed my life i hope everyone on this earth experiences this video i could write a 3 paragraph essay on how much this has effecting my life thank you Mr Stone
I have been waiting for this Johnstone. You have absolutely changed my life with this video, I will never be the same.

Lol it’s so funny how he’s talking about the “gigantic video” saying he was almost done. Fast Forward to a year later and he just released said video this week. This man knows commitment!
In the originals, especially if you have a +attack nature, chimchar should be able to relatively reliably beat Roark after levelling up to level 14 and becoming a monferno. You outspeed all of his pokemon even if you have a -speed nature and they have a +speed one. Geodude is a probable 2HKO with mach punch, dealing up to 28.2% damage with rock throw. Onix is a guaranteed 3HKO, dealing up to 29% with two rock throws. Cranidos is a guaranteed 2HKO, but might, if geodude and onix attacked all times and rolled high, kill with a headbutt high roll. If either of the preceding two (ideally the geodude) used stealth rocks, you win though. In BDSP, Geodude has rollout rather than rock throw, which if it chooses it does less damage to your monferno, but if it uses defense curl, it turns into a 3hko. But the worse change is Cranidos getting bulldoze, which will KO you after damage from geodude and onix - so, in BDSP, unlike in the originals, Monferno cannot solo Roark without healing in battle or overleveling. But with the chimchar line getting powerup punch in BDSP, you actually can defeat Roark guaranteed even without a +Atk nature - Geodude is a guaranteed 2HKO even if it uses defense curl, Onix is a 2HKO as well, and Cranidos is a 1HKO thanks to being at +4 from the four power-up punches previously used.
Good to see you back dude! I'm certainly excited for this video project of yours, though if the file size really is that big, hopefully they'll accept it. Good luck with it though, can't wait to see it!

No, is doesn't *seem* like it, the catch rate is just lowered before you become champion. The same thing goes for the Wild Area in Galar.
