Such an amazing run. The commentary and donation readings were so smooth. I enjoyed how the donation reader always said "thank you very much" after donations.
Agreed with all your points, especially the amazing donation reader. She had a great voice and sense of humour and was always "on" when it was time for her to read.
@@Doxsein .... she?
How does it feel knowing Gary is always the speed run champ no matter what u do
Gotta see that Gary v Running Man race.
@@David-ln8qh underrated comment
Hahaaaaaa, I totally get you 😂😂😂
I like how almost every fight is the hardest fight
Thought the same
Pokemon Yellow is my first pokemon game. I had no friends who played this game, so I had to discover every mechanic on my own and its an amazing experience that I could never get back.
AGDQ Announcer: Everyone I have a very important announcement to make.. During this years AGDQ the cure for cancer was discovered
Runner/Couch: nice
Was so refreshing to watch a glitchless run =) I enjoyed watching glitched too, but it's so short
Love the dude on the couch, his enthusiasm and knowledge of the game added so much to this run. I've seen some of his streams too, can't remember his name but I'm a fan
One with the glasses is Shenanagans. He did the glitchy runs for Pokemon
As soon as this music started playing I was instantly transported back to my childhood.
"Hi! I like shorts! They are comfortable and easy to wear!" *starts battle
To catch alot of Pokemon, you have to travel alot. Search tall grassy areas. By the way we're fighting now.
I can only assume that Red/Ash takes issue with this bold statement
Lass: “Dont try anything funny in the dark”
Nidoking, ground/poison type, can learn Surf, can't learn Dig.
Kazuichi Souda learns earthquake
And can learn Bubblebeam
He has done it even faster now, gunner is probably the best Pokémon speed runner out.
That awkward moment when you realize Pokemon was teaching you to bribe officials since the 90s... that lemonade, man
Worse yet, the guard shared his herpes with all the other guards
@@harukof651 Dark brother, dark.
As a kid, I left my NES themed Game Boy SP with Pokemon Yellow on an airplane. They "never found it" and I was devastated. Watching this brings back memories, albeit this play-through is much different!
I wonder who ended up nabbing it and wonder if they erased my team I spent so much time on (or just sold it for some cash). Starters were Pikachu, Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur, Gengar and Mewtwo, all level 80+ (Pikachu was over 90).
i’d spend weeks as a kid grinding and still get shit on by the elite 4, this dude beats the game in 2 hours flawlessly
its taken me like three days to completely watch this
I was confused but then I saw the 'glitchless' part.
The world makes sense now. Thank bird jesus.
everyone remember: Professor Oak, he came when he heard Gary beat the Elite 4
damn I learned alot from watching this. I love it when runners don't hold back on sharing their strategies and whatnot
Evan's Gate b
The fun thing about Lt. Surge's trash cans, they're SUPPOSED to spawn next to each other. Even one of the NPC's says so.
So hyped for gunner to run something here.
+I'm neatural on everything the toy bonnie , .
when i was playing pokemon yellow as a kid, i didn't know how to get flash and actually learned to go through the tunnel without flash. it's not that hard actually as the walls helps a lot. As you always only have 1 route to go :) but ye nice run !.
+Candy Ditto. I think I did that every time I played the game, because I eventually just knew where to turn when I bonked. Saved a move slot, at least.
Lmao i remember this. My first run I got through by being poisoned haha
I did the exact same thing in Red as a kid.
what are you talking about you are a kid >:D
haha same here, you can learn the path by heart
Really enjoyed the run, comments and explanations!
The Gunner Luck is real.
Lmfao John cena over 2 grand donation I'm done
I remember smashing A and B because it always boosted the chance of a capture when using a poke ball.
+Method Man You fool! You're supposed to hold Down + B once the ball hits the Pokemon!
I thought it was Down + B when the Pokeball explodes open, and Right + A when the Pokeball shuts.
Actually in red and blue if you held A the right time it would always turn a regular Pokeball into a master ball seriously I think it was the A button might have been the B button but I'm pretty sure it was A
@Database Productions pressing buttons does change the rng of the game, just not in any reliably exploitable way
@Database Productions I love that you actually made this comment haha
Not many people can say they beat the entire game of Pokemon Yellow with less than 10 pokemon caught, battling with only 1 Pokemon under level 60. Speed Runners always impress me.
Fortune Hunter i finished every pokemon game using 3 pokemons max.Defeated all 4 final battles with 1 pokemon.It was always Blastoise+Alakazam.Hydro pump + alakazams skill=Inatakill almost everything.I actually couldnt catch pokemons cuz i couldnt keep them alive.Never ever have I used a legendary haha
Fortune Hunter It's actually not hard, beating the game with only one pokemon, i've done that since i was a kid (been experimenting with the games, even back then, like toying with Missingno. etc.)
My favorites in solo pokemon game, is Jigglypuff or Clefairy.
They can be evolved immediatly, then learn Mega Punch, and rest of the game is peace of cake, if you learn it the right moves (I prefer to have Body Slam/Strength, Psychic, Thunderbolt and Ice Beam (Ice Beam is important, against Lance)
But many pookemon can solo the game
Game Master I've done similar to you. I've always had full party, but typically only mained 3 (typically always one psychic type)
The rest would be sacrifice pokemon and HM slaves.
However back then, i almost NEVER had Alakazam. The link cable me and my brother had, back then, was messed up. But tbh, Kadabra is strong and fast enough. With Elixirs and Ethers Kadabra can easily solo E4 with just his speed and Psychic alone XD
Jigglypuff and Clefairy are my favorite Solo pokemon run, in any pokemon game.
In earlier games they are broken, in later games they are more balanced. Which is fun!
when i was a kid i find it too hard (or i was just to lazy) to train more than 1 pokemon, so i always used my first pokemon (always the fire starter of every gen because i like it the most) to beat them all, using every other pokemon in my team just to keep him alive with revive and grinding him to hell. For exemple my charizard which i beat the red game several time when i was a kid had always the same moves (earthquake, flamethrower, Fire blast and Slash)
It's simply not a difficult game. You can play very casually and still blast your way through all the fights, rarely being in the danger of losing.
Thanks for doing this. I was able to follow along with a fresh version of Yellow on my 3DS, and catch a legit MewTwo in a single day. Had to do it with a Great Ball, for some reason my Master Ball disappeared during my inventory >.
Starting 2:58
not like its stated in the description and at the beginning.
so what?
+Ms S its not necessary to tell again???
Dont worry, I appreciate you AND your clever username
@@sandromension4529 the time in the description doesn't work on mobile, but this comment does
Lol’d at swag boulder :D
Who’s hype for AGDQ 2018?!
14:10 "Maybe our Nidoran will get poisoned at some point"
Silent audience
That's a shame dude, that was honestly a smart joke lmao. Nidoran can't GET poisoned, that deserved a chuckle from somebody.
this guy: beats the game in 2 hours
me: Reads the words “Snorlax used rest” on repeat for 2 hours
lol Verdier Webedia , the french army is here :)
That Jr.Trainer's Bellsprout hard read the Full Restore. Lmfao
Respect! I need 30 min to start because of reading everything. 😅 yellow is so long ago, we’re getting old
First pokemon game i ever played bought it when it came out. good nostalgia
I have complete respect for this runner. This was a smooth run!
So awesome to have Gunner there :D
Wowzers that was a-MAZ-ng ! This gives me all new hope for trying my All-PINK PokeMon Team... 😃
Such a great run it terms of the walkthrough provided.

You might notice that the number 256 or 255 are very important in Pokemon runs and glitches. Its because in Binary, one Byte is comprised of 8 Bits. A bit is either on or off (1 or a 0), and 8 bits happens to have 256 combinations (assigned number values from 0 to 255). So for example, a gen one miss is probably assigned to a value such as 00000000, generated by RNG
oh wow, this is awesome.
2 hours , nice. congrats
Im really stressed because of Nidoking´s low attack
1:52:37 I remember this well. I recall Nuzlocking this game sometime in the past, and I ended up with only one Pokemon that could kill Rhydon (I think it was Lapras, which died to Nidoqueen's Thunder). Red and Blue taught me to laugh at enemy Rock/Ground types for never having STAB and taking a swift OHKO from at least one key party member.
The day that party member died was the day that Rhydon laughed. I'd never seen so many Rock Slides on my side of the screen.
Except that the Rhydon doesn't have Rock Slide..
29:04 It might seem counter intuitive, but it sure is encounter intuitive!
At least I wasn't the only one who caught that😂😂
Watching these speedruns make me very aware of the speed and efficiency of my own movement. Halfway through the video, I paused it to take out the rubbish. I picked up my keys and the rubbish in a single bending-down. Went outside, and placed the rubbish bag in my right hand prior to reaching the bin, since the outside bin was on my immediate left and the momentum from my 180 turn back towards my door would do half of the work of throwing the bags in the bin for me. When I got back in, I picked up the kettle, turned on the tap, and filled the kettle while the water was cold, then let the water continue as I boiled the kettle. Then placed my bowl under the now-hot running water, and washed it with just one turn of the tap.
Now, imagine how quickly and efficiently Gunnermaniac wipes after going to the toilet. He probably has paper-fold strats we cannot even conceive of.
The fucking optimization is insane and I love it. What’s that line from Money ball or like it a quote from a Mickey Mantle “It’s unbelievable how much you don’t know about the game you’ve been playing all your life”
Great content!
Why were the battle animations on for the last fight? Does the game force them on?
Yes
That's weird. It ignores your settings just for one fight? That seems really dumb.
Deplorable Citizen probably for dramatic effect, since its the final battle
The best part of this happens in the first minute: the goal of this event is to help cure research through...cure cancer through research.
As I'm watching this I'm fighting the first member of the elite four in Pokemon moon at the same time
You're wearing pants!? props.
Great run!!! and so hyped yellow, red and blue are coming next week on 3DS :D !!!! never played yellow, so happy ;3;
Well I’m never getting the Silph Scope again tbh
Interesting how the battle animations are automatically turned on for the Champion battle .
"Get' em Smudy" 😂
you know you're a cheater when your probability breaks the calculator
1:00:24 Woah, I thought it was a rule that the trash can keys had to be next to one another.
It's supposed to be that way but is misprogrammed. I think it's only every other trash can that can even possibly have a key, and the northwest one has like a 50% chance of containing it
Feels wrong to play this game without pikachu
I've never kept Pikachu past Rock Tunnel, even in 1999. I used it for Bulbasaur and Flash HM slaving and boxed it after.
Ultinarok47 I relied on him heavily. Beat Brock with his slam and he was at least Lv 80 before I beat the Elite 4.
lovesgibson Pikachu sucks major balls in Gen 1. I got rid off him as soon as I could.
I always kept Pikachu no matter what!
You must be Gary Oak, I've heard a lot about SCUMBAGS like you.
Why the battle animations are back only for the last fight with rival and missing for all of the rest?
Great job and great crowd
Freaking sweet
Am I the only one who's watched this so far? Cool!
my nidoking had lv 23: 54 Attack, 49 Defense, 49 Speed, 46 Special. is it bcs i used the Moon Stone at Lv 18?
It's because every pokemon in Gen 1 has DVs (random numbers between 0 and 15) for each stat which determine how fast those stats grow. When you evolve it doesn't matter for the stats, only when it learns certain moves.
Yellow was the 2nd best and Silver was the absolute best.
How do these guys get these games in color? I thought the games were originally in black and white.
+Ben Botanel however, Pokemon yellow was made after red and blue, for the Pokemon color. Which is why is has colors. Whereas red and blue played on game boy color will not be as vibrant
"We're gonna be doing something called... (desnaidfasom)." - 10:35
What was it that he said? I'd love to learn more about this trick. Fishing for Pokemon is my least favorite part of Pokemon games, because I get so hung up over their natures.
+E. Trafford Desum. As gunner said, at the very least in Generation 1, encounters are taken from time-based cycles, and from what I got from Gunner, the cycle lasts approximately 12-13 seconds long before repeating. So basically, based on the first encounter he has on route 2, if he doesn't get the nidoran immediately, he has a reference point for where he is in the cycle of encounters. As such, he can then wait for a point in the cycle where it is more favorable for him to get the nidoran encounter he needs. It's not a perfect science, as encounters are still random, meaning he could get stood up by the game and not get an encounter in the part of the cycle he waited for, but it's how they try to manipulate encounters. The same technique was used later in route 3 to find a spearow, since he didn't get a pidgey in Viridian Forest. Another few examples of Desum can be found in the 151 pokemon run of pokemon blue from SGDQ2015. As for nature manipulation, since I have seen nothing about desum for Gen 3, sadly can't help you there.

So, the TL;DR is that encounters are based on time, and by triggering an encounter at the right time, you increase your odds of encountering the Pokemon you want. Awesome. Seems kinda useless for anything but speed running and encountering very rare Pokemon, though. Good to know, anyway. Thanks.
+E. Trafford I do know that RNG manipulation for IVs and Natures has been done for Generation 4 and 5, I imagine there is something in the works if not completed for six as well. Generation 3 though I think is still the basic hope and pray for the DV/IVs
Zsaver3
Interesting. Thanks. Hopefully we'll find something for Natures. Until then, I guess I'll just go ahead and use cheats or something.
Or, you know, the healthy option of getting the fuck over it.
I don't know that much but it's DSUM, basically the pokemon encounters are kind of like on a prize wheel, and if you knoe that wheel you can predict what pokemon you will meet whenever you get an encounter. As such, they like to avoid encounters during a cetain time because those encounters have no/little chance to get what they want.
The flaw is, they can't predict when you get an encounter.
It was insane!
I only ever beat Brock, as a kid, because my underleveled Rattata somehow dodged everything. I was so scared to level anything because I didn't want my Pokemon to become disobedient without the right badges.
How do they see the stats so fast
the donations are so dang high!!!
Amazing run!
Hey shenanigans is a commentator!
God this game is so perfect. Playing it with OpenEmu as we speak...
I mean is that the use of the poke doll? WhT other use is there?
what's the name of the technique used to manipulate the odds of encountering one specific pokemon, I'm French and have a little difficulty to catch that particuliar name :)
Awesome speedrun BTW, I've to try this
Do you mean DSum manipulation? The one he used to get the nidoran?
yeah, that's the one :) thanks dude
Wait, I'm confused. Wasn't this exact run already uploaded to the channel?
+VashTheBearJew Reuploads are generally for fixed audios, adding missing parts, etc.
Gotcha. Thanks!
Shenangens and gunner are good commentators! They should do more commentation
Professor Oak knows the art of the YOLOball
1:06:58
If this one Oddish can ruin the run, why not buy an extra healing item earlier? Seems like it wouldn't waste too much time or money for the extra security.
You're playing around several probabilities for the oddish, though. With that low attack, sure, it's probably only a 30-40% damage range to kill the oddish, but you're still, if you buy extra healing items, playing around the range that you don't kill the oddish, it chooses to use stun spore, and that it hits... The combination of all the factors is only about 20-30%, however powerful the result can be. Not only that, but the money routing at the time of this run, and the current route, is extremely tight, (commenting at the start of the video here) I'm not sure if they even have the money to buy the extra items at the time that they'd be relevant. A lot of speedrunning in pokemon comes around dealing with ranges and random chances for what can happen. Gunner's current wr run eats a stun spore from the oddish, and even with that much better nidoran than what he had here, it's a 45% range or so to kill the oddish. The Full Restore they get in the underground is the only time efficient status healing item they can get along the way to and through rock tunnel, so it's about their only way out of things like this.
9:35 they buy a paralyze heal to cure a possible paralyzed status of nidoran inflicted by pikachus thundershock. Then they toss it in the forest menu at 9:54.
If they’d kept hold of it, it might come in useful at the oddish…
The bag size trick only comes later on so they could toss it sometime after the dark cave 🤷🏻♂️
Entertaining run, nostalgia off da chain. Although, the reciprocating courtesy laughs between Porkins look-alike and Nerdy McGee left me with a hole in my soul.
very nice
at 1:35 why isn't vine whip very effective against nidoking? it has to hit normal damage
It deals normal damage. However, the game reads Nidoking as a ground, then poison type. Which is certainly correct, in a sense. However, it reads the poison type last, and grass is weak to poison, so, at the time, since it didn't balance out the messages, it gave the not very effective text and sfx since it read the poison type last.
o.o
AT 6:00 was the screen getting bigger? or am i tripping on oxygen?
Holy fuck gunner lost so much weight let’s fucking go gunner
one time he played through yellow in 1:54
i read smudy like judy lol
Run Start @ 2:55
I do not remember Gary having a Cloyster...
Lord of the Jötnar he has different teams in yellow
Lord of the Jötnar the guide book I had as a kid shows him having a few things change. Alakazam,Execugtor, an I think Sandslash were locked in pokes. The things that changed put depended on his Eeveelution which also determined by ur battles. So Ninetails Cloyster and Mageneton all swapped out depending on Vaperoen Flareon and Joelteon
Smudy too stronk ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Does the gb sp run out of battery or does it get power through the adapter cable to the GameCube he is playing on?
Does AGDQ allow KiGB emulators? Can't see what they are running these with. What emulators are permitted for GB games?
1:29:15 or something
Played this as a kid and didnt know about the flash and shake thing
This has already been uploaded to your guys' channel - great run though!
Is it technically still glitchless if you use the PokéDoll trick on the Ghost Marowak?
It is, for the same reason RNG manipulation isn't considered to be a glitch - the game mechanics are working as intended, just not in a way forseen by the developers.
Glitches (like Missingno or Brock through walls) are clearly the game code not working as intended. There is constant debate on what's a glitch and what's an exploit, but that's where the speedrunning community has put the division.
i quick watched done this by skipping every battle !
How dare you disrespect Helix, our lord and savior
cuz 1 helix is overused and played out and 2 cuz he can!
Wait, how is helix your lord and what did he save you from? Frames?
Twitch Plays Pokemon. It's kind of complicated, I recommend looking it up
+j Dunst I shee, okay then
A7xFo No! Praising the Helix is nothing but a demon worshiping.
i remember playing this a ton when i was young, it was my first game, never beat it though, my farthest run into it, my brother had took my machoke and traded it, and i didnt like machamp at the time so i did a new game, then i had issues with brock first time i had only pikachu, and couldnt beat brock, kept trying and eventually had a high leveled pikachu that wouldnt listen to me, and had the same thing happen with it the next two times with a pidgeot and a nidoqueen, both of those times though my brother had stole my pikachu and gave me a pidgeot and nidoqueen.
good to see this game beat, and money raised to help fight against cancer.
Run starts at 2:54
Wait, why doesn't the Poke doll in the ghost fight not count as a glitch?
Lol, I'll never get a legitimate answer on youtube from anybody.
***** oh, thank you kind sir.
Another example is Metroid Zero Mission, where, according to the mechanics of the game, you can get two super missile packs well before the Imago fight, which without sequence breaks is where you're intended to first obtain them. Super Metroid as well has a lot of sequence breaks. It's all just maximizing the potential use for mechanics in-built into the game.
It is, the speedrun community don't count it as one though. If you run from that fight without a pokedoll you have to fight it again when you revisit that tile, which isn't the case in literally any other encounter in the game.
why did people want the nido to not be named john cena!?
Having the nido named Smudy? It's a bit of a pun on the most known moderator of Gunner's stream, who is named Smudy.
