I've been trying to find an answer to settle this for myself through google but it's completely useless. The only way I can satisfy myself on this and truly know for sure would be to learn how to read the code and pull the game apart myself. Way too much work. Didn't want to take anybody's "word for it" as that defeats the purpose of trying to find the answer myself.
It was recently shown that the program he made was actually made to make the game load faster not to make Kanto fit into the Gen 2 games It was actually really needed and saved us all lots of time
Agreed! And it was something he'd already made, what was it used on? MOTHER, AKA, EarthBound Beginnings. That series has had some rotten luck over here First one was ready for release and got the same treatment as Final Fantasy 1, red carpet kinda thing. But then it got shutdown for the same reason as Star Fox 2 even tho it was done
In a way, what he did still technically allowed the Kanto region to fit into the gen 2 games. Because the game would have been next-to-unplayable otherwise without that loading speed and thus the concept would have most likely been scrapped to save on memory. Just like what they did with a bunch of pokemon that were intended for generation 1 or the island you were meant to go to via the SS Anne, which left us all with the Missingno glitch and Glitch city. Not everything has to be about semantics... after all, making video games is not easy.
@@ijvmo123I like how we got the map for the missing city in the Gigaleak and it’s a single building with a truck nearby. No wonder why Game Freak cut it. 😂
According to the Pokemon Adventures manga which are tied to the games, Red was on Mt Silver looking to heal the injuries he suffered in his battles with the Elite Four. Lorelei's cursed ice had caused some pretty lingering damage to his hands and feet which caused him to lose strength, and according to Sabrina the hot springs of Mt Silver could help because she suffered the same injury.
Meh, the manga also makes up alot of weird shit too that obviously isn't cannon to the games like the Sabrina being apart of team rocket and I think leaf too (pretty sure it was one of the female protags) and other strange plot changes, id take any "cannon" from it with a ginormous heap of salt
The Iwata thing isn completely true. He made a tool that made the game faster, it actually fills more due to it. It wasnt an compresion tool. Did you know gaming just released info on this.
"Although he was not part of Nintendo at the time, Iwata assisted in the development of Pokémon Gold and Silver, which were released for the Game Boy Color in November 1999, by creating a set of compression tools utilized for graphics in the games." -Wikipedia, citing a 2009 interview with satoru iwata. So, yeah.
Great video. Great series idea. Cut the intro to just “say my name” it’ll work better and it still the pun across. We want to dive into the video content as quick as possible! 😅
Quickly becoming one of my newest favorite channels. The nostalgia I get from your videos is insane. Hope you do one for my favorite game, Emerald. Much love.
The Gen 3 Pokémon Iceberg will definitely be made. It's one of my favorite generations, so expect an even better video. I hope you enjoy the rest of the content too
It's a shame that the vast majority of the Pokémon in the Space World demo never saw the light of day in future games. They could re-work some of them into new Pokémon
Some of them, actually a good amount have been reworked into pokemon. 1 example is 30:10 eventually being cranidos from gen 4. I actually am happy alot the pokemon didnt make it. They dont like pokemon and some are straight up creepy.
Thank you for watching! I'll happily bring you more Pokémon icebergs for all generations. Please, subscribe to my channel, give this video a thumbs up so more people can discover my content, and don't forget to give some love to my other iceberg videos too! 😃
There is so many good story opportunities for a Legends Johto tie in arceus with unkown, the burned tower, the unnamed pokemon resurrected by ho-oh, Kurt and his apricotballs. Endless gold.
8:28 if you trade over a mewtwo from rby it will also be holding the berserk gene. I remember doing this with all my rby pokemon back in the day. I think the kanto birds will be holding a brightpowder? All the weird items and mystery gift furniture was so... mysterious back then lol. GSC is my favorite. Thanks for making the video and great job :) I didn't know about the shinys in stadium 2 that's super cool!
Love the scope of the content covered but i wish you went further in detail for many of the individual topics, some were really interesting but only got a few sentences
Thanks a lot, I appreciate that you liked the content. It takes a while, but I want my watchers to enjoy. If you like Gen III, soon I'll release a video about it. Have a nice week!
13:30 Actually that is wrong! The pokemon center in New York had a "gotta catch em all" machine where players could obtain various pokemon with special moves including legendaries and their shiny forms. Shiny mew was obtainable from one of those machines, so it is in fact possible for shiny mew to legitimately exist in gen 2 games.
I came across the ‘Unown Radio Signal’ by accident in my playthrough of Silver Version as a little girl…it SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME, especially when my older brother said he legitimately didn’t know what to make of it himself. 😅 I felt a A LOT better when he went to the Ruins of Alph on his copy of Gold Version and got the same result…clearly it WAS coded into the game for SOME reason, we just didn’t know WHAT. I was a Senior in high school before discovering that it was meant to simply be the Unown.
11:45 this actually happened to me as well, maybe 15 years ago, where I got a shiny ariodos. I was a naive kid and thought it was just a cool ball gimmick (like the stickers in DP, which was out at the time) but looking back it all makes sense now.
The berserk gene wasn’t the only item to only exist in gen 2, the pink bow was the normal-type boosting item in GSC but was replaced with the silk scarf gen 3-onwards
The reason shiny-locked mons still have shiny forms is because they have to. The game has a data block for each mon that defines its name, stats, colors, etc. It's like a printed form; every mon has the same form and just different information on it. But, you can't leave an entry in a data block blank; there has to be _something_ there.
All of your videos are really good. I discovered your channel recently, binged watched it and subscribed. I wonder if you know about Gen 2 Glitch City and the Glitch City Ghost Girl?
Should’ve mentioned the Korean version of Pokémon Gold and Silver. They were the only Pokémon games to come out in South Korea before they lifted the Japan Import ban. Also they can only be played in a gameboy color because of the needed for the Korean letters.
The Eevee/dog thing got shot down b/c the beta dex has the 3 beasts in their beta form. Also before Lugia was put in their was another possible legendary in a silver lion beast, the one of the Cryptodex logo, whose dex entry is close to Ho-Ohs. Which leads to the new ongoing theory that Ho-Oh was meant to lead the 3 birds & this silver beast the 3 dogs
Lots of question but not many answers. Still a interesting vid. Also it was revealed recently that they "forgot" Kris during the beginning dev for HG/SS.
One thing worth mentioning regarding shiny locked Pokemon is that Generation 2 started to shiny lock Pokemon, not Gen 5 as many people believe. In addition to the ones you mentioned, all NPC trades are shiny locked starting with Generation 2 all the way up to the modern games. Only games where NPC trades are not shiny locked are Gen 1, the Let's GO games and interestingly enough, the Isle of Armor DLC in SwSh.
My take on the legendary beasts were that they were 3 Eevee. To me it makes more since that 3 unevolved normal types would have died in the fire, because why would fire and water types have died in the fire. It still fits with with all of the eeveelution theory’s evidence, plus I think it fits better with the idea that they represent the lighting that stuck the tower, the fire that burned it down, and the rain that put it out if they were turned into those types rather than already being them.
I remember as a kid when pkmn like whooper got leaked and how it blew my mind. A classmate of mine had pkmn silver with a caught lugia on his copy and that was impressive to me. The whole pkmn silver/gold ( I had gold ) era was a vibe. Crystal felt somehow different, like a completion. It felt like freedom. I never forget it, its burned in my memories. The ice cave before the 8th gym was hard af lmao
I just want sequels or side story’s to OOT MM WW and the third oracle with remakes of the other two and the link thing work with all three then some kind of minish cap sequel. I just feel like hearing a mad announcement like Ocarina of Time 2, Majora’s Mask 2, WindWaker2, Minish Cap 2 sounds cool
17:00 remeber that in HG/SS are no mega evolutions and in US/UM is the mega evolutions universe (there are 2 universes confirmed by Zinnia in OR/AS) that Giovanni we saw in US/UM is the one in HG/SS who is somehow teleported to the mega evolition universe and became the leader of raibow rocket recruiting leaders of other teams from the no mega evolutions universe, that's why we see Archie and Maxie (different from the ones in OR/AS
Giovanni in team Rainbow Rocket is probably a parallel universe-Giovanni. He even states (in maybe a bit of a broken translation) that he's never had a kid challenge him before, but it makes him feel nostalgic nevertheless (...子供に詰めよられる。わたしにとってありえないことだがなぜだか懐かしくもある。). Implying that he hasn't been faced by Red, Blue, Ethan or Kris, but somehow shares a memory with the parallel universe Giovanni who _was_ defeated by them.
Shiny Pokémon were easy in gen 2 provided you can trade. Catch the red gyarados, trade to gen 1. Teach mimic, go find a ditto, then mimic transform. The ditto will copy shiny gyarados then let it use transform 1 more time to copy stats. Now catch the ditto and it’ll be shiny. You can use this for breeding and have 1/64 chance of shiny hatches.
@@timahsheuer7424 no it’s 1/64 chance for majority so long as ditto is the parent. Highest odds are 1/256 due to female hatch and how shiny mechanics work in gen 2. You are wrong, research more before replying.
@@nickw7452 just looked it up on smogon. 1/64 is only with pokemon that have either 100% male gender or 100% female gender. the other one with 1/64 is starters and eevee with 87.5% male gender
The “iwata saving Pokémon gold/silver” is not entirely true. The program he wrote only saved on loading times and animations and had nothing to do with fitting kanto inside gen 2
Holy carp. Gen 2 had SO MANY unused Pokemon. Also, I really want to try that version of the game that was still on the original Game Boy, with it's limited pallet. Those ugly sprites and limited colors are nostalgic to me. lol
Manaphy was shiny locked which was in gen 4, albeit a different way. The original game you trade it to cannot hatch a shiny, it's made to not be able to be shiny to that user. That's why the manaphy shiny hunt requires you to trade the egg to another game and hatch it there to try and shiny hunt it. Also, as shown by did you know gaming, the compression algorithm actually took up space, not saved it. It didn't allow for more content to be added, that was the larger flash chip. What it did allow was better loading speeds giving it an actual playable experience.
??? type was, to my knowledge, introduced as an easy fix for a Gen 1 bug.
In Gen 1, Struggle was considered a Normal type move, meaning it couldn't hit Ghost type Pokemon. Rather than reprogram the entire battle system to allow for this specific move to hit Ghost types, they added the ??? Type, which was given to Struggle. That way, Struggle would be able to hit all types regardless of resistances and immunities.
I believe Curse was also given the ??? Type to allow for the unique effect when used by Ghost types vs any other Type.
In Gen 5, they seem to have rebuilt a lot of the mechanics meaning they could account for moves like Curse and Struggle. So Curse was swapped to the Ghost type, arguably its intended type from the beginning, and Struggle was made typeless.
Struggle is actually given the normal type in gen 2. I know this from the disassembly. The move just deals typeless damage
I've been trying to find an answer to settle this for myself through google but it's completely useless.
The only way I can satisfy myself on this and truly know for sure would be to learn how to read the code and pull the game apart myself. Way too much work. Didn't want to take anybody's "word for it" as that defeats the purpose of trying to find the answer myself.

On the Stadium games, nicknames and random occurrences can both cause shinies to appear.

20:08 This brings back such bad memories...
The “iwata saving Pokémon gold/silver” is not entirely true. The program he wrote only saved on loading times and animations and had nothing to do with fitting kanto inside gen 2

We should live in a world where Woopers design never changed.
Beta wooper was so good they turned it into a starter
So ho-oh can turn feline into k9? Okay got it
They're not dogs.
Manaphy was shiny locked which was in gen 4, albeit a different way. The original game you trade it to cannot hatch a shiny, it's made to not be able to be shiny to that user. That's why the manaphy shiny hunt requires you to trade the egg to another game and hatch it there to try and shiny hunt it.
Also, as shown by did you know gaming, the compression algorithm actually took up space, not saved it. It didn't allow for more content to be added, that was the larger flash chip. What it did allow was better loading speeds giving it an actual playable experience.
God lance and reds theme songs go hard
The 3 legendary beasts also have the same Pokédex entries as the Eevee evolutions.
Iwota didn't save any space with his algorithm. All the shit he added COST space on the cartridge. That myth needs to die.
Red doesn't call his mom because he doesn't have a PokeGear.
