In my head canon Oak caught a Mew transformed in a Bulbasaur and never bothered to check it really was a Bulbasaur.
@Lukas Nero Pretty easy... A ditto transformed when caught is a ditto. He caught the Mew, never opened the ball back up. Thought it was a Bulbasaur.
Shhh
But he caught it at level 3. Mew learns transform at level 10.

Actually Leech seed is terrifyingly dangerous in Gen I in combination with Wrap considering every consecutive turn Wrap comes into effect, Leech seed will also apply, however this is even more broken in Combination with TOXIC of all things. Toxic keeps getting stronger, however due to Gen I's spaghetti coding, when you have Leech Seed + Toxic, both of them increase in power not just Toxic.
Gen I Pokémon most definitely is a game to have ever been made.
The toxic part usually doesn't matter though, if you switch out it turns into normal poison in gen 1 and I think gen 2 as well
The game of all time.
Don’t forget fire spin as well. Leech seed + wrap + fire spin + toxic = no Pokémon play.
@@isuckatgaming1873 The Toxic part most likely won't matter here at all due to the infinite Full Heals in Blue Kaizo regular AI has spaghetti coding and it was a fun fact on how Gen I mechanics work.

Oh, Blue Kaizo, have "Fun" with this!
The entire premise of Kaizo Blue isn't just to make a difficult game, it's to remove player choice from the game. You have one path to walk, one viable moveset to use on each pokemon, and you MUST fight every trainer in the game, no option to avoid a fight.
By giving all pokemon their best movesets it removes a lot of the opportunity you as a player have to fight against level disadvantage, which you WILL be at because enemy trainers are massively overleveled and even break level cap.
They claimed this is "Nuzlocke-able" and while I don't doubt that's true because people are insane, it would take SO MUCH grinding it would cease to be fun.
The most frustrating thing, though, is probably either the safari zone or cycling road. Safari Zone is a 498-step perfect path to get to the final NPC, allowing you literally ONE tile of wrong movement. And cycling road you need to constantly navigate a cut-tree maze while going UPHILL with jump cliffs right behind you that send you straight back to the start.
I played through this entire thing, enjoyed some of it, but after finishing it I rescinded any recommendation for others to play it. Here's to seeing how your experience goes!
It honestly got a lot more fun for me once I stopped thinking of these games as a harder difficulty, and more like a (very very obnoxious) puzzle game.
I can't wait to see Christian put the teddy on screen for help with the safari zone.
Just hack in rare candies to reduce grinding. I’m here to watch him play Pokémon not him grinding over and over. It’s boring.
Kaizo isn't about fun. It's sadism.
It is nuzlockable, since Pokemon Challenges did it many, many years ago. However, I haven’t heard of anyone else insane enough to actually try nuzlocking it.
I remember this mod being more a feat of endurance than actual skill, it gets extremely tedious later on.
Excuse me, could you please help me locate Evee in Pokemon Blue Kaizo? I cannot find him and I am so close to finishing my dex.
Actually it’s very well designed. Probably one of the best mods I’ve ever played
@@PhylusIan have you found it?
@@PhylusIana bit late but its near the viridian gym
It's important to note that in gen 1, low kick also flinches. It has 50 bp and 90 accuracy but honestly fighting type in gen 1 takes what it can get.
Wild Seel, Ponyta, and Rhyhorn at THE START OF THE GAME!? I’m here for that! ❤ I love how DIFFERENT this game is, while at the same time being the same game we all know and love.
2:40:10
I'm shocked whoever made the hack didn't just lock you in Mt. Moon, honestly. The moment I saw the "cave exit here" tiles were missing I thought that's what had happened.
Stat EXP which is the gen 1 equiv to EVs is actually incredibly simple.
Every time you KO a pokemon you gain stat EXP for each stat equal to the matching base stat of the pokemon you KOd divided by the number of participants(similar to normal EXP).
The square root of the stat exp is then divided by 4 and added to your stats, max 63 points(because the max value is 1 less than 256² when you square root and round down it winds up being 255/4 which when rounded down is 63).
Vitamins give 2560 stat EXP for the matching stat, but can't raise it above 25600, which is surprisingly close to maxed out anyway because of the square root(√25600 = 160, 160/4 = 40, 40/63 is pretty good all things considered).
Also since there's no overall stat exp cap like there is witn EVs there's no reason to ever avoid stat EXP(with EVs you sometimes want to avoid it because the max EV is 512 but it takes 252 to max the EV for a stat, meaning you can only ever max two stats and any EVs in stats you don't want are EVsyou can't get where you need it).
incredibly simple
"it's surpisingly simple"
-Ceave gaming
Op comment: It so simple
Me: E=MC2?
While you may say incredibly simple, it may be to you, but to those who dont know this, it's incredibly confusing to follow.
incredibly simple
2:13:26 Reminds me of my Alpha Sapphire game when I was looking for a non-Solar Power Tropius and I went a half-hour without finding a Tropius at all. 15% shouldn't be that rare.
I like how Pikasprey is spiking up the narrative in a sarcastic manner.
This is going to be a great warm up for kaizo crystal and emerald!
I've never personally played Blue Kaizo, but I beat Crystal Kaizo to Red, and you can definitely expect some over-level 100 mons, mewtwos, and/or both. Honestly though, there's ways to make it fun, like using less conventional picks that are often buffed in hacks like these. For instance, magcargo isn't usually that good, but SinisterHoodedFigure (hacker man) made it and other mons solid members of the team. TL;DR yeah it's gonna suck, but that doesn't mean it's unfun. Just never nuzlocke it. Ever.
I suppose stat boosting moves were also removed so that the AI wouldn't accidentally give you the badge boost glitch...and prevent you from doing it intentionally yourself.
I hope you play more of this, I can't wait to see you dominate the kaizo!
Also, if you want, you could find a way to hack some rare candies into the game to prevent the hours and hours of grinding but just high enough to reach the next gym leaders highest level mon, but that's up to you and your comfort/what you find fun. Just a suggestion because I've seen some other people who attempted Blue Kaizo just do that to skip the tedious grinding phase, especially later on in the game.
The point of Kaizos is that they are tedious, grindy, and a test of endurance. The rare candies would remove a lot of the emotional stress that the game is designed to invoke. That doesn't mean people making vids shouldn't use it, but at that point they may want to consider why they're doing the challenge and if they have alternative challenges that aren't supposed to be so tedious.
@@watsonwrote No offense but if a game forces you grind shit ton of levels to progress, then most people will just use fast forward to skip the "emotional stress" of grinding at all.
That's cheating
Never noticed how much gen 1 Squirtle looks like Krillin.
YESSS! ive played this before, it's so brutal. looking forward to more, thanks.
I checked, and Kaizo Blue actually went and removed Leech Seed from the game.
Also, since he seemed to look forward to Amnesia: Psyduck gets it (at level 52) but Golduck doesn't. So don't evolve it too soon! Only other pokemon that gets it is Slowbro/poke which is in Cerulean cave.
Excuse me, could you please help me locate Evee in Pokemon Blue Kaizo? I cannot find him and I am so close to finishing my dex.
Snorlax?
I played a Yellow Kaizo game once. I hated it. It's not because of the battles being challenging, but because of the maps. The way everything is laid out is ugly, only to make going anywhere and doing anything tediously long. But intentionally making things tedious does not equate to good gameplay or good game design.
I think the new Crystal Kaizo had a good formula. The maps are ugly, but with the rare candy and heal bags, it's less about obnoxious back tracking and grinding and more about difficult battles under a hardcore nuzlock ruleset.
Perfect timing to go with dinner Christian!! And at that, a much anticipated series, can't wait to get into this! Thanks!
Effort Values in gens 1 and 2 are similar. Except the amount it goes up by is the base stat numbers of the pokemon you just fought. So all stats go up a little each fight. The max was some really high number, and all stats can be maxed. So you don't need to choose which 2 stats you want maxed.
Essentially, because it's based on the opposing pokemon's base stats, a pokemon with high speed or special like Abra means your EV's for your speed and special will max out first. It's kind of like the newer games where high defense pokemon will help build your defense, but the other stats also raise too in these gens, just at a slower rate
This is my generation of Pokémon and to see what they’ve done with the map is awesome. Keep up with the content 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
So the technically worst gen
@@kinnikuboneman you spelled “the originators” wrong
@@traphikonthehourtv: All these Z@@M€R$ don't understand greatness when they see it.
Good luck. I tried this romhack so many times. It can be weirdly fun and hair-pullingly difficult at the same time. My advice, beware the Voltorbs

@@PhylusIan I believe it's in Viridian. The house below the Gym.
Ah, I remember playing this a long time ago. I quit at Fuschia, because getting to its Pokémon center felt like a feat in of itself.
Yeah, you can only get there by flying, and can only get fly by biking *up* cycling road.
It was fun until I got to fuschia. I don't like using healing items, so I went back to the pokecenter in lavender repeatedly. Ruined the whole experience for me, and frustrated me to no end

I wish Pokémon games had a second play through option that makes it much harder.
Sadly only Black and Black2 had that
@@velvetbutterfly only black 2 had the key system
Amazing! Keep them coming!
I really love these third party DLC’s that change the layout of the maps, especially Gen 1 and 2 maps. It both keeps the nostalgia while keeping things fresh.
I am loving this play through so far. Can’t wait to see more!
This seems pretty crazy, can't wait to watch the rest.
Finished this a few months ago. Good luck, this shit gets crazy. The whole thing is an exercise in problem solving, so its right up your alley. Oh, and grinding. Most battles are beatable 30ish levels under, but whenever you have to raise up multiple new team members for a specific boss fight, it can be pretty annoying. Personally enjoyed the game, but its got its issues
Im going to watch and like all of these
love to see a new pokemon series, love these, especially from pikasprey
the mew was L3 because it had the same exp as the L5 starter but a slower experience curve (needs more total exp to be L5)
Makes sense.
Uh, Mew is in the same experience group--Medium Slow--as the starters. Unless BK played with the experience groups, which is possible.
More likely is that the developers intentionally underleveled the Mew to make the game at least technically playable.
I'd like to share out some tips when playing Blue Kaizo, from one who has played this a bunch and actually speedran the game, and since it's very likely I can't catch your streams.
- Try not to use the starters, they get like NO good moves. Starters you catch as evolved forms only get good moves due to them having them lower leveled then they evolve. For a Grass Type for instance, I recommend Bellsprout or especially Oddish.
- A lot of Pokemon and moves have been changed, usually buffed. Usually in the AI's favor but there's a handful of moves that go from garbage to an absolute monster to deal with, such as Razor Wind or Petal Dance. Some Pokemon's evolutions have been changed, like Pidgeot is now gotten at Level 20! But Gyarados is now gotten at Level 25... Generally, try to see what the AI use, and analyze how much of a monster they are to see if you want to use it yourself, if the Pokemon is available to you, that is...
- Don't expect to get a Psychic Type of your own, basically at all. In fact, don't expect to get anything considered OU stables. You can still get only a few Pokemon that are OU, usually of types that don't deal with a lot, but remember that some Pokemon are now buffed, so now said OU mons are even less prominent due to a somewhat better balance, but also rigged against you... Even having OU Pokemon of your own, they take a long time or even never to get good moves!
- There's NO Stat Experience in this hack. Zero. Not even from Vitamins (I don't think you can even use them anyway). Your only stat booster really is Badge Boost, so you at least still have somewhat a stat advantage over the AI.
And that's all I really have to say. Gold Luck with this game! I personally think this is the most fun of SinisterHoodedFigure's Kaizo hacks, but that's mainly because this is Gen 1. He has gotten a lot better when making say, Emerald Kaizo, and Platinum Kaizo is on its way, and I look forward to his creativity for Sinnoh!
Heck yeah more pikasprey content. Great stuff to zone out too
"Get angry at the video game." I think by the halfway point, you'll be suffering.
Also a huge tip coming from someone who played this, exploiting the Badge Boost glitch is insanely good. Since the boosts stack when the stats re-calculate, you end up getting another 12.5% on top of your existing 12.5%.
Just use stat increasing moves like Swords Dance or Amnesia and it should go well.
And it also works when you get a stat lowered, it's a pretty common knowledge and strategy xD
whoa that’s a hot tip
I'd love to see you play Shin Pokemon Red or Blue; it's a vanilla experience with bug fixes and quality of life adjustments! There's even a built-in nuzloke mode!
I wondered about something like that.
With all that grass, I imagine Viridian Forest is an excellent carbon sink. Gotta look at the positives.
This actually might be the game I've needed for a while lol
I enjoyed the video. Good work on the video.
I wish we had the Blue Kaizo that Dylan did. That must of been hilarious to see live.
must have*
About the flinch, low sweep also has a flinch chance in gen 1
Kaizo?! More like "but why tho?" 🥲 Good luck and can't wait to see more of this 😁
Kaizo + Pokémon == subscribed.
I took a quick look at the blue kaiso Google document, Psyduck DOES learn amnesia at level 52... Golduck does not learn amnesia but does learn psychic by level up, at level 39...
Also Meowth learns slash at 47, Persian at 24 and 51. Hope this isn't considered backseating.
Persian learns it twice?
33:45 "how do the wild Pokémon survive in this place?" They don't 😔
Don't worry about Effort Values. I'm 99% sure they've been disabled for this hack.
btw, Brock used to spam Dragon Rage early in Blue Kaizo :D
Holy smokes you are actually attempting a Kaizo game. Good luck.
Leech seed being removed is probably to stop the toxic leech seed glitch which is super powerful
Crystal kaizo > blue kaizo > emerald kaizo, in terms of difficulty

Poor pidgeotto spent half of his life paralyzed
Ah yes the classic kaizo rage mod didnt realize they made one for pokemon this is gonna be a good watch.
There are also Crystal Kaizo, Emerald Kaizo and White 2 Kaizo, if I recall correctly
@@---Mattia--- Apparently Emerald Kaizo is the hardest one of them all.
@@krystallinekris I’ve played CK and I think it’s the hardest overall of the three. This game just abuses gen 1’s mechanics, and EK is just weather team spam for half the game, and gets really repetitive quick. CK at least had some insane puzzles and great gym bosses. The PTSD of Bugsy’s shuckle is still real kek
Ah blue kaizo.
The beginning, a surprise difficulty spike.
The middle, Giovanni is a hard fight.
The end, overleveled elite four and champion fights, frustration ensues before victory.
Tips: Aerodactyl is buffed. Certain 2 turn moves are now one turn affairs. Understanding matchups, pivots and item utilization like lemonade will get you very far.

@Ian S there should be an eevee located in the house next to the Viridian Gym. Since the eeveelutions are op in general they pushed it towards the end. Also on victory road there should be eeveelutions available out if I remember correctly.
@@LockedLoadedDestruct I could do a backflip right now. Thank you!!!
@Ian S just be ready for the endgame. The elite four and champion are difficult as all hell. Honestly was shouting in victory after beating them.
@@LockedLoadedDestruct haha that's awesome! I hope to be at the E4 by the end of this week! I'll let you know! Thanks again
Can you imagine if they put a cut and strength puzzle between the elite four plus a randomising puzzle in pure darkness with teleporter pads that send you back to the start of the elite four if you misstep
What a stupid comment

Flinch-lock is when you pull the trigger on a flint-lock musket but it goes click and you flinched from anticipating the recoil.
Lol
Good to see the king of 7U makes an appearance to early
Alright. I can’t wait for him to rage like he did in dark rising
Having only played halfway through Emerald Kaizo because i made the smart decision of only using water pokemon, i'm looking forward to seeing this and maybe try it myself.
This definitely doesn't look Kaizo. More "excessive inconvenience" 🤔
Anyone have a recommendation on the best way to play this?
Venusaur is just better then Vileplume objectively cause gen 1 stats
Canon _english_ name. He has always been Green in the japanese game.
There is no such thing as a canonical English name. Then every language would have its own canon. He is just Green.
@@Cetra29in English material he's been Blue, Green refers to the girl.
Since the way Pokemon (and most games) translation worked was they went Japanese to English than English to all other languages this would make Blue the canon names in a lot of other reasons, well, perhaps China and Korea use Green.
Although every language does offer unique preset names for most if not all games later on, usually variations on colours.
Like in Black/White, the various languages have the Male character default to Black, Blake, Blaire, and a few others.
What make Red, Blue, and Green unique is they either don't have variances, or no one acknowledges them. I think even Gold/Ethan has different names even if Silver doesn't
Enjoying the series and I joined in the hell ride too loving and hating the game.
27:04 buff Pidgey
Apart from the map, pokemon spawns and trainer teams a very standart experience.
Tough but not Kaizo tough so far
Level 100 Weedle?
Normal type is arguably as strong as psychic
1:03:17 Psyduck is only a version exclusive (with Shellder, I believe) on the Gen 3 games.
Just started this after finishing Dylan’s LPs of crystal and emerald kaizo lol. Good to see you take this one on
Are the pokemon the gym leaders have max DVed and EVed out?
Forgot to mention, Petal Dance now leeches ala Giga Drain.
Do with that information what you will.
Good I dont gotta play when I can watch this
That must have been Falkners Pidgey
Might be a shot in the dark but might as well post it here. I'm trying to get Kaizo Crystal to work on my Android but I'm not having much luck any tips? I downloaded the rom and the ips and did the patch thingy but its just a txt file now what do I do with that?
Change the file extension to '.gbc'
@@mynameisNeo369 ok that sort of worked it does say kaizo but its sort of corrupted? Any tips? Thank you btw!
EDIT: deleted everything and started the whole process from scratch with changing the file like you said, no corruptions and works fine! Thank you!
one turn fly/dig is probably just a workaround for the glitch that doesn't end the temporary invulnerability if you get paralyzed
They have this rom downloaded on a physical cart for the game boy and I’m tempted to buy it just so I know I can’t cheat with the emulators
I mean, it could, but good luck.
I think someone made carts that let you insert an SD card and it reads gameboy games off that.
But even then, GameShark and GameGenie exist
You’re probably experienced enough with Pokémon to roast a vanilla nuzlocke.
He's done a couple, but he says he doesn't enjoy them very much.
Nah, Nuzlockes are lame
@@kinnikuboneman Nuzlockes are just sets of self-imposed rules to increase the difficulty of the game, which is very low. How is that "lame"?
The pokemon fighting system has a lot of complexity that is not represented in the in-game fights because they need to be child-friendly.
sweet!
How do you get these rom Hacks id love to play some of them!

Eh, idk. I think difficulty increases are fun but I think it's gotta be fair fun. True the player can have a crap ton of healing items. You can grind ad naseum to super high levels if you have the gut for it. But I feel like difficulty shouldn't just be a giant go screw yourself.

@@deepspaceexplorer9529 why are you even saying this to me I'm just suggesting stuff to some guy. are my takes so bad it should be mentioned ? I'm open to discussion
Blue Kaizo kinda encompasses a lot of why I tend to hate pokémon difficulty hacks. Instead of making the AI better, change strategies around and make some synergic teams with different movesets for strats they usually just go "hehe numbers go HIGH" with unfair encounters and stupid mechanics like making status effects useless on Gym fights (like great, you completely removed an entire mechanic off the game for no reason)
The map design usually is quite obnoxious and a lot of the time the solution to push is just grinding and nothing else
Granted I know that Gen 1 is limited and not like they could have done a lot like it is possible afger gen 3 with the abilities and held items, but this mentality kinda stayed there for most of the hacks I see even for later Gens
At least Asprey went in knowinv and expecting it to be frustrating, so let's see how well he will do
The thing is RBY don't allow custom movesets like later gens for trainers, the moveset of pokemons in RBY is always decided by the moves the pokemon can use, is why in vanilla you have stuff like arcanine using ember at blaine gym, i saw a lot of RBY romhacks (both normal ones, and the ones that try to be harder) and a lot of them suffer with trainers having poor movesets, while kaizo blue may be a bad kaizo hack, it's the best difficulty hack by far for RBY, the creator of this hack also didn't knew how to change a lot of the actual coding of the game, so some bugs from the original game like the badge boost glitch still end up existing is also why the ai is not really better at all in fact the creator stated the reason every pokemon in this hack lost leer and growl is because they would be useless moves for the ai, all of those limitations and issues of the game itself make it much harder to balance it proper, and at the end of the day this IS a kaizo hack, it's not supposed to just be a bit harder than the vanilla game it's straight up supposed to be super hard, i do agree though that grinding and map design is annoying but something worth remembering is that since in RBY the trainers don't have custom movesets, this mean that if you fight a gym leader in this hack that have a annoying moveset with a specific pokemon then you can 100% catch the pokemon and have the same moveset, this force you to learn the game based on what the trainers use and is kinda neat.
