Venomoth Only - Pokemon Yellow

    3. No glitches* or exploits (the badge boost glitch is allowed)
    4. No Double-Team TM before level 100
    *The badge boost glitch is allowed
    *Double-Team is excellent but it makes for boring videos because almost every single Pokemon can learn it through TM. Banning the TM allows some Pokemon to access it if it is part of the flavor of their level up learn set though. Even in those situations I will not spam it - because again, it's boring...

    I have to admit, I'm quite fond of the Venemoth typing joke. It's something unique to this channel that likely would not have come into being anywhere else. I mean, how often do people think about Venemoth? It's one of those pokemon that people forget about, so having it be front and center kind of fits one of the themes of this channel, namely bringing attention to pokemon that people forget.

    • @Gungho73
      @Gungho73 2 года назад +18

      I'm fond of the joke far more then something like "water onix" for Gyrados which is buried and dead to me. His efforts to make the Venemoth argument seem legitimate along with art alterations really sells it. Its also not consistently in every single video which keeps it fresh. It feels similar to how I pronounce certain pokemon names due to being the only one who would say them aloud for the longest time as a kid in that logical way.

Will takes over for Lorelei and Karen takes over for Agatha. Lance gets promoted to Champion three years after Red and Blue retire from the Pokemon League. As Koga gets promoted to Elite Four member, Janine takes over as Fuschia City Gym Leader. Blue, the former Pokemon League champion who lost to Red, replaces Giovanni as Viridian City Gym Leader. You get to face the Generation I protagonist after getting all 16-badges and he uses Pokemon Yellow gift Pokemon. Red and Lance share the same battle theme because you are fighting two Indigo League Champions. Red represented the Kanto Indigo League Champion whereas Lance represented the Johto Indigo League Champion.

    Pretty good run here! I can't believe leech life was so useful! When I was looking at the TM list, I was thinking double edge would probably be better than leech life due to the fact that it does almost twice as much damage than a super effective stab leech life, but I didn't consider the healing effect. Psychic worked against basically everything other than psychic types, healing from leech life was really useful, and it being x4 effective against Exeggutor meant the bug move was actually... good!
    Combine that with psychic, sleep powder, and mega drain healing, and you had a moveset that honestly does not look all that impressive at first, yet deals with literally everything the game can throw at you. Its like venomoth had barely enough for everything, to the point where it never got walled.

    I’ve noticed that video games (particularly Pokémon, Minecraft, and other RPGs) completely captivate him. He can remember crafting recipes, Pokémon types and moves, and other things easily. So we often relate his lessons to video games, and it works wonders for him.

    Your story in the middle of this video about going to school with ADHD has me on the verge of tears and was almost to a tee my experience too, and the reason I became such a Pokémon fan…. The escape from the day to day was what I needed as a kid to make it through.
    It’s amazing to see there are other people in this world that have had similar experiences to me, because growing up I was singled out because nobody else I went to school with had the issues I did…

    Tbh unlike the Fossil "Joke" I never could get tired of the Venomoth meme. It can be made in so many variations and feels way more charming that it comes from yourself and not just taken from somewhere else.
    Just my humble opinion.

    Scott, I'm glad you're channel has taken off and you've given Venomoth some love, I've always loved poison types.
    Also Behemoth is an incredible name for this run. Thank you for that and a good start to my New Year.

    So after spending the past week or two binging all your videos i've finally found out why the Venomoth jokes keep coming. What a wholesome reason, my favourite is Magnemite because he's just so out of place and a complete weirdo which always resonated with me too. Love the channel Scott, thanks for these videos.

    So I just discovered the channel yesterday and have been skipping around watching videos almost non-stop. Some of the older stuff is definitely less polished, which is to be expected. That being said, this channel is sooo endearing!
    The content is now in a sweet spot, where there is excellent quality without being too cookie cutter!
    Also, on a personal note I can tell I'm a couple years older than you by your dating, but I can relate to being an ADHD kid in that era! I always had a seat in the back of the class where nobody else could see me fidgeting or doodling or getting up for an unneeded tissue for 10th time, lol!
    Keep up the great work, you and everyone that assists you!

    My experience with the Nidoking line is similar to yours with Butterfree. I beat Brock with Double Kick that Nidoran male learned early in Yellow version and then evolved it into Nidoking as soon as I could with the first Moon Stone I found in Mt Moon. Its high stats due to the fact that it was a third stage evolution so early in the game combined with Thrash’s 90 base power convinced my child sized brain that Nidoking and Thrash were OP. Of course, Nidoking is my favorite Pokémon to this day. Really enjoyed your stories with Butterfree and love the transition of the channel mascot to Venomoth!

    Venomoth is always on my team. I loved its intimidation in Koga’s episode and I like to specialise in psychic types and should-be psychic types. I always see it as a decoy for trainers who approach it as a poison/bug just to be suddenly stabbed and overwhelmed with it’s psychic abilities.
    Looking forward to more. Stay awesome!

Anyway, I was really really looking forward to this video because I wanted to say that Venomoth's becoming one of my favourite pokemon, if not my favourite one! I used it in two playthroughs in the past month (and I don't think I've had any other playthroughs so I used it everywhere) and I really enjoy seeing this Fairy/Rock type on my team. It just makes me happy. Just the fact that it exists. Hell, Mothim became my favourite gen 4 pokemon because of Venomoth. My favourite animal as of recently is that one white moth, I know you know which one I'm talking about. That silky one. All in all, this channel has really shaped my perception on moths and moth pokemon and I'm so happy to have found it and stuck around. Happy new year Scott. I hope you and your team never get tired of producing these 🧡

I even lost to Koga of all people once in Crystal because I thought it was Flying-type!
