We give praise to our Dark Lord Dome and reject the Fake Lord Helix and all he stands for!
He's the Kabu-top Pokelord.
Blasphemy. Praise Helix
So you have chosen death
*sad amber noises*
Real Dark Lord Helix won though… ❤
After all this time completely ignoring Bruno still makes me laugh 😂
Your Videos have become a pure pleasure to watch. In the beginning, it was more like a niche type of content. But you have developed so so much. Storytelling wise and especially visually wise. Your Videos are heads above the rest. The whole interface is just on another level. Keep going Scott. Like I said, its a pleasure 🔥👌🏻
But not head and shoulders above the rest. Ahahaha keep grinding
The helmet, the horseshoe crab, the demon himself - Kabuto! Looking forward to this one. I know I know I ALWAYS write this, but it is always true and always with a reason.
It is a cherrished memory my wife told me about from the time she and her sister played pokemon blue version as kids. They shared one game and always talked about what to name a Pokemon, so both were happy to have´em on the team. And Kabuto was named Kubota as a silly wordplay on Kabuto. Since then they would one refer to this Pokemon as Kubota. And now even I do it. everytime we catch or get a Kabuto - it´s gettin named Kubota.
Wholesome
Horseshoe crab in real life have 10 eyes. The big ones you see at the top are usually used to find mates. It also has primitive photoreceptor on its tail.
I only just finished watching the Omamyte video and now you hit me with the good old 'there is another'. Can't wait!
He's doing one a day through Halloween
Your overlay is getting impressively in depth, so much dyanamic information on screen
This is going to make the rest of my work day fly by! Thanks Scott for knocking all these amazing videos out 🙏
New Jigglypuff Lass art! I love all the unique trainers that feel like they have a personality through these runs!
The fact we get these almost 1 hour videos so consistently is baffling. Thank you for all the content, Scott. I've been subbed since you only had a handful of videos. Watching your channel grow is so wholesome.
Return of the true king, child of the dark lord... something tells me he will struggle. Hopefully you remembered to get rest for Kabuto's first playthrough haha. Looking forward to it since I have always chosen Kabuto over Omanyte, still nutty that the only rock move it could've had were: Rock throw and Rockslide, moves it would not get until the latter with generation 3. Otherwise, nothing. Ancient power at level 59 in gen 2. Rock Tomb in gen 3 maybe Hidden Power but you wouldn't want to waste it for a rock move. To the all mighty Helmet!
Been subbed since the beginning, man. The quality of the content in the videos has grown exponentially, especially when you get into the nitty gritty of numbers and streamlining your methods post-playthrough. keep going. awesome as always.
I've been enjoying your videos since 2020. Amazing to see how far you've come. I always liked your content, but it just keeps getting better. Your enthusiasm for the series and content creation also really connects with the audience I think. Thanks and I'm already looking forward to the next one!
This is the second video I've noticed this, but it'a a very slick edit to go from the first teleporter straight to Sabrina's room. Idk if it's ever been pointed out, but it's very well done on whoever makes that edit
Same goes for skipping some trainer battles, the cuts are on point
Nice video. Love the Kabuto emotions. It looks so angry when battling that it's adorable. Also that one time used swirly eyed Kabuto was so cute. Happy Kabuto was really cute too. I do like getting to see the fossil pokemon getting used no matter what though. Hope to see more fossil pokemon in the future and please keep up the good work.
Time for Kabuto to take a Trilo-Bite out of the competition
I love that you added the movepools on each side of the screen. It's so useful to us viewers!
Rapping Lass is best lass. Even if she's not actually a lass and is not actually rapping. Love the videos, mate. You make great content for us to watch, and we appreciate it.
cant stop to say: love that overlay and video editing gets better and better, its always so much fun to watch
Thanks Alex
Your videos are my favorite comfy afternoon snack, much appreciated!
My favorite part of all these videos is your cultish devotion to Dark Lord Kabutops. Ir's just hilarious to hear a normally wholesome and good-natured guy like yourself say "Hail the dark lord."
Not only does the warden have bushes and rocks inside his house, he also has a kid steal his candy to boot. That's some trick-or-treating for ya.
Actually those things on the bottom are Kabuto’s laser holes. Used for defending against its natural predator, Venomoth. Because Venomoth is a pure dark type it’s weak to laser type attack.
Close but venomoth is demon type, still weak to laser
@@brendanhart517 Ah see, I always forget about Demon type. They added that in pokemon bath and shower, which was a bit of a lull. Although pokemon sink really brought the trio up!
The expressions on Kabuto's face are really cute!
I hope eventually we get a run with the fossils having a rock move from the silver/gold time machine like abra had his elemental fist so we can see the true power of these rock types
I know aerodactyl cannot get rock slide in gen 1 and 2 even though Lance does
@@brendanhart517 you can transfer them with rock throw from gold/silver
You spoil us all with these content drops!!!!!
Keep up the good work man 😁
Re: Warden's House: It's a Bonsai Garden, just represented with gameboy-era sprites.
Amazing. My favorite Pokemon RUclipsr, cranking out these hits daily. Praise the Dark Lord!
Woow, great improvement again! You're really shelling out the vids during spooky week, eh.
Also, I know it's nothing new obut I absolutely love the little emotions the pokemon goes through over the video. Kabutos Fight Face is awesome. These little things make your vids so high quality imho 'cause it's really not necessary for the content type you're doing but it's such a nice little touch.
The uuuhm "dark overlay" when you highlight stats or moves or w/e is really good to bring your point across but my heart skips a beat every time 'cause it's the same amount of darkening that my laptop screen will apply when almost out of battery xD
You've turned these videos into such a craft over which you are the master. With everything you've put into that Exp Mapping tool, I wouldn't be surprised if it got the point that you only need 2 playthroughs with each Pokemon. The first playthrough being to familiarize yourself, and the second coming after you've mapped out the perfect route for Exp and just dominate the run.
It sort of feels like that now. The only way it would be more than that is if the Pokemon has multiple viable strategies, maybe it gets more than 1 setup move and has physical and special attacks.
Picking up the Dome fossil with Kabuto in your party seems so eerie. Like picking your younger self up from school or something
man this was a quick sequel, good job scott
I believe the gloomy red glowing dots are his creepy little eyes. Lord of the darkness, king of the deep sea
A great video to see on my birthday, Kabuto is my favorite gen 1 fossil pokemon! Thanks for the fun time like always!
Happy birthday!
I wonder how much you and your girlfriend laugh at the sheer amount of PP puns in the video.
Keep up the great work, Scott, and btw, the sofware you use to update live status and the XP router are both amazing, and the live status adds a significant amount of value to the video, being able to see exactly how stats are calculated and how badge-boosts setups works makes the fights a lot more understandable, and a lot less like "RPG RNG"
Kabuto was always my choice playing through these games. I just love its shape/appearance and its evolution is so cool
I love the emotes you use for the pokemon sprite's 😁
heheh, I love the little angy buggo sprite when going into battles.
the happy buggo sprite is also cute, but a close second cc:
oh, and of course, bug love cc:
Thank you for the much needed reprieve from the news!
You’re welcome!
Great job as always scott, thank you
Oh yeah! I love that Kabuto beat out Aerodactyl of all things on the tier list! I was worried it might come in last among its kind. Thanks for showcasing my favorite zombie crab!
You’re welcome! I’m glad it put up a good performance!
I really like Kabuto a lot when I was younger I use to own a Kabuto water squirter toy that must have released when the 1st movie first came out and I loved that toy a lot
I just had the image of kogas Vena- party being a barber shop quartet. "Vena, vena, vena, Venamoth!" 😂
Fun Pokesith Facts! The Dark Lord Dome is the founding member of the Sith order, and has never been replaced!
Cool video dude, kabuto is one of my favourites ^_^
I like how, over time, so many NPCs have developed reputations on this channel. They begin to feel more real.
It’s been really fun seeing which random trainers are regularly awful, annoying, or just potentially dangerous for Pokémon to face.
It's especially notable since regular trainers in other games never get reputations like the self destructing hiker does.
That was a great run! 👏👏👏👏Kabuto was super adorable with these facial expressions 😁. I can't believe how bad aerodactyl was in gen 1,that even the first stage of the Kabuto line can be better than it. 😅
I hop that in gen 2 aerodactyl would be better 😊.
I thought that Kabuto would have to struggle more during the league, because of it's limited movepool, and it's low special stat. But these results were kind of a surprise to me. 🤔Having a sub hour and 20 minutes time for a first stage pokemon is really good. Thanks for explaining about the software of the rby router, I think that I'm going to use that too, in my gen 1 runs.
By the way, that oak fight was epic. Arcanine's roar was the highlight of that fight🤣.
And like always, thanks for making me have such a great time. 😁
Puttin in OT brother killing it, take some time after Halloween or something you’ve earned it
Things will slow down in November! For a month...
I love how the drawing of the pokemon shows emotion depending on what's going on, your fiancee is very talented!
Sarina (the artist) is not my fiancée, but they are both very talented!
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon oh apologies, I thought I heard you in previous videos that it was your fiancee was doing the drawings. Still very talented and love the videos. Keep it up my man
Let’s gooooo! Very nice run Scott! The doom lord pulled through better than expected! 💪🏾
I agree! Much better than expected!
You da man Scott, keep going bro!
I watch these videos while I grind on WoW, I should actually say I listen to these all
Good use for the videos!
May B-tier Lord Helix have mercy on you and the C-tier Dome. Great video!
I’m never gonna be caught up again lol, and I’m okay with that! Love the content as always, Scott!
You’re welcome!
"Next up is Agatha, the 2nd member of the elite four"
you're taking the "we don't talk about Bruno" to a professional level lmao
I am
Great video as usual Scott. I'm interested in how the gen 1 fossils do in gen 2. Hope that you've got videos for them planned for that generation for some time in the future.
Not really planned, but I do intend to make those videos!! I’m also very curious.
“I’ve decided to play with pokemon’s equivalent to zombies”
Parasect: …
I like that you do a second run to make improvements but i feel the first one is the true run after all player error is always gonna happen like forgetting rest or deleteing a move too early or my favorite dumb ai and luck confusion paralisis ect. Its all a part of pokemon and i accept that in all my challenges great run like always
Point of clarification. While you said you always make the right choice at the fossils, you clearly made the left choice this time...
Love the video!
Dome/Kabuto is the best fossil because it's the only one based off a creature that's still alive today (horseshoe crab). Literally out-survived the dinosaurs, the ice ages, and humanity.
Scott I just want to say thank you. Like I honestly might cry omg actually thank you so fucking much. Today has fucking sucked for me, just all out total suckyness. And so I simply cannot convey the utter catharsis I felt upon arriving home, opening youtube and seeing this in my feed. Thanks to you and your amazing videos I get to fall asleep peacefully tonight. Thank you.
all hail the dark lord
I also didn't know about flash so I stumbled around the rock tunnel. I remember holding my gameboy color right up to a lamp to see anything at all.
Another great video!
Watching this video after the halloween video, I can't help but think that some "What if" runs might be a lot of fun. Not just later gen pokemon in Yellow, but maybe stuff like, "What if the fossil pokemon got Rock Slide?" At the Very least the Kabuto/Kabutops line could benefit from it a lot, so that might be fun to add to a theiretical 'what if?' tier list for gen 1
Hey Scott, random thought, have you ever thought about modding your first-stage runs where the Pokémon doesn't/can't evolve? I don't imagine the evolution attempts take up a lot of time, but at a certain point it might be nice to not have to worry about that. Either way keep up the good work dude, always enjoy the videos!
back to back bangers 🦇
i woulda blizzard for koga thennn taught ice beam idk tho
Awww, the angry sprite is so cute
It is
I feel bad for Bruno. At least in history class, we learn about some of the worst massacres
I thought I was losing it the whole time you were comparing Kabuto and Areodactyl because I couldn't see Omanyte until you finally added Kabuto and I noticed that Omanyte wasn't on the first tier list. you made me feel kookoobananabrain
Kabuto's back sprite looks like one of those old leather bike seats.
YES, I literally said yesterday on the Omanyte video that I beat Yellow as a kid with Kabutops only, easily my favourite first generation pokemon. Since it evolves kind of late (at 40) you end up playing a lot of the game with Kabuto so this was my childhood.
That’s so cool. Kabutops is amazing too! Can’t wait to swords dance my way to victory with it again.
Agatha the second member of EliteFour, I love it 👁
"Kabuto is very happy…"
You had the ultimate chance to put a giant Electrode :D smile on his face which would totally crack me up. Quite disappointed😭
Lord Dome shines bright on you today!
When you named Kabutos resistances and weaknesses, I lost track and suddenly thought you were talking about venomoths typing lol
"Pokemon's equivalent to zombies, the fossil pokemon."
*Sad Parasect Noises*
Parasect soon
I love kabuto i grew up in Maryland and we had horshoe crabs everywhere so it was only natural haha
Great video!
I'm guessing Kabuto is going to struggle so hard compared to omanyte. Early game is going to be miserable against Brock and Misty. Can't even take advantage of the better Attack stat, no rock STAB
Predicted time >2 hours
I think > 2hours is too much especially for a pokemon with decent stats
Holy smokes, just goes to show how much your routing has improved since the Fossil Ultramathon for pokemon Yellow!
your second Playthrough with Kabuto more or less beat your Kabutops run by a good portion (though, it was slower than it's more optimized playthough but, that makes sense; since when have you heard of a pre-evo getting better results that it's other stages of evolution? XD)
Granted, the final stages didn’t use rare candies. That’s the major ruleset difference. I plan to do an update for that video in the future to get more directly comparable times.
All hail dark lord dome boi! ♥️
It’s a shame about the stats, but I hope our best boi does amazing still!
The Kabuto.
The trusty weapon of the one and only, SOGEKING 👑🤥
I imagine the eyes on its back are a sort of psuedo eye that some animals have that just detect shifts in light to do what you said in the video.
LORD's back sprite looks like a melting Ditto, staring back at me.
It also looks like the back of a roasted chicken.
Or a leather American football helmet from the bad old days.
All that matters is that your wonderful graphic artist drew amazing happy red eyes, and of course the art ware is stellar as always. Thank you!
(Okay, I might be done spamming comments. Don't trust me on that)
The Dome fossil was chosen for this playthrough, so now we know the real Scott is back! I was worried the evil twin got away with his schemes.
So many videos this week it's been hard to keep up! Hail the dark lord
Absolutely love this little horseshoe crab. I'm not sure whether it has two pairs of eyes or not either though. Maybe? Probably? Unsure.
Also this is where I get to talk about another fun Gen I fact: the IGT in RBY is really inconsistent. Kabuto was 2 seconds faster than Aerodactly, but Aerodactyl for a 2 minute faster IGT. This may not seem like a lot, but its anywhere from 30 to 45 seconds faster at four times game speed, since the IGT only records minutes instead of seconds. In short, its known the IGT doesn't track time particularly accurately and it's not really known why as far as I know. Which probably makes IGT the least desirable metric to use. If you ever wanted to really optimize a run and get it as low as possible it would probably be best to just ignore it. I don't know if it matters too much outside of that but it was a fun fact I wanted to share.
For this run, Scott chose the Dome Fossil. He knew if he didn't state that y'all would ask. Actually now that I think of it -- everyone ask anyway; comments are good for the RUclips algorithm
This was a fun run to watch. HOWEVER…
*the DARK LORD is displeased that there are resets. punishment will be slow and painful in the Aerodactyl run as a result*
Does the algorithm care what we say? Or does it just care that we comment? I always wondered this. Thanks for another Pokémon yellow playthrough!
I honestly have no idea…
Hello Scott and Denis!
All hail the dark lord!
Love Kabuto so much. My favourite Pokemon was Kabutops until Gen 6. Also, how is Venonat so bulky????
Oh and kudos to your artist, those extra pose illustrations on Kabuto are adorable.
Yeah, Sarina is doing a fantastic job bringing the Pokémon and trainers to life!
All hail the Dark Lord!
Kabuto's happy eyes are cute
"Spood boost" made me do a spit take 🤣🤣🤣
You’re spoiling us Scott 🥹
I’m trying to ;)
The eye comment is funny because horseshoe crabs in real life have 10 (ish) eyes all over their body so its cool they gave it multiple sets in the game
Well then you better have chosen the lords fossil in this run or I be idk to be honest lol I guess I wish for your candy at Halloween to be sour instead of sweet XD ! also yeah that early game is going to suck.... 😥
You know it's kinda weird but noone believes me when I say I had a copy of pokemon green, they all tell me out never existed, yet here you are proving me valid I was beginning to think I imagined it
It existed. It was just only in Japanese
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I know, just for some reason people don't believe me so hearing you mention it was very validating
For the record the girl at the end of rock tunnel is possibly worse when you have flash because the despair just sets in when you look in your bag and see you have no items. I still have a very vivid memory of walking up to her, poison ticking away, and then blacking out
Yeah. Seeing it coming it particularly hopeless.
