@@CYNTH_14 don't know if you were asking a serious question, but in case you were, JRose calls Agatha "the Agatha lottery" because her pokémon spam a bunch of RNG-based attacks such as confuse ray and hypnosis, so that winning against her is akin to winning a lottery.
The destiny bond play at 1:04:50 when you anticipated the switch from Aerodactyl to Charizard was one of the best things I’ve seen you do. Bravo! Definitely one of your most exciting videos throughout. Also I hope you hold on to that Crobat, it’s certainly special
because he isn't creating them daily, these are already made. Doesn't mean he didn't work his butt off to get the month of videos as he posted before, but this is why we are getting them daily.
This is my least favorite time of year (my partner died last November) and honestly having a JRose video to look forward to every day helps. Cheers man
Go for it Jrose this has been the best month, you’ve made it each one better than the last, I’ve been home sick from work for a few weeks and watching your videos is helping me stay up beat during this difficult time I’m going through. Just want you to know your my favourite RUclipsr and you’ve got a fan for life here bro! Also I’m giving this video the Official OG Bug Catcher stamp of approval, certified by the Panel of Viridian Forest Bug Catcher’s!
hope ya feel better soon dude! P.S. if you put a metapod in the freezer it can double as a fairly decent ice pack. Can be kinda nice when you've got a fever :)
No, you'd have to realy on super tanky Pokemon with as many buffs and debuffs as possible and force the other Pokemon to damage themselves with Struggle or otherwise, and resort to Struggle yourself whenever absolutely necessary. It'd take much, much longer but I say it would be possible. At any case, it's not a PACIFIST run, if you are literally doing moves that deal damage on purpose. I mean, take Leech Seed for example... it deals damage on every turn, just like Poison status. The only difference is that it isn't called Poison and heals you a little bit too. Curse literally kills the other Pokemon. Using any move that causes Confusion status is forcing the opponent to damage themselves. I swear, every time I look up a Pacifist run, people always cheat and never get called out. @@hitmanHunter620
Crobat was the MVP here. It was there from the start and had multiple clutch victories. Jumpluff may have been the centerpiece of the run but Crobat's speed, confusion plus typing made it so that it could ensure victory whenever the team needed it.
One thing that could've been really helpful for this run is the TM for Swagger, which can be found on the 5ht floor of the lighthouse. Didn't even realize this move existed before gen 4 because this move can be potentially incredibly powerful on a Pokemon with the capability to setup reflect and increase its defence stats. The best option that I've found is Mr. Mime in Gold and Silver, but you could probably do something similar with Defence Curl even if Reflect isn't as available as I would've liked. Mind you, if you wanna do something really cool on actual hardware, you could transfer Pokemon up with the Reflect TM and then teach it Barrier. Pokemon like Hypno would work really well for this because it also gets Amnesia
Jumpluff: Carries an entire run with Leech Seed/Sleep Powder, the only time it has ever been a cornerstone to a team. Jrose11: "This Crobat!" To be fair, the stall crobat was pretty awesome.
I’m surprised with how creative you get with these challenges. You are the definition of a true Pokémon master. Gamefreak or Pokémon should definitely put you in their hall of fame records if they have any sort of thing like that. Your videos are the highlight of my day. You even beat the elite four and champion with level 5 Pokémon. Your tactics and gameplay and challenges are truly bonkers. I don’t even think the majority of the folks at game freak or Pokémon have even accomplished some of these feats that you have put out. It is truly remarkable. You definitely deserve some recognition in the Pokémon world. You definitely got our recognition on RUclips. Kudos to you. Keep doing what you’re doing champ!!
A young Zubat flew around Route 30 for many years, watching as Pokémon Trainers pass him by without a passing glance as they continued on their journeys to the far-off place known as the Pokémon League, but he never stopped thinking: "I'll be there someday, I can go the distance." And one day, he was met with a curious trainer who chose him for a peculiar team. At first, his dreams were dashed, as Zubat soon learned he was on a team being moulded for a pacifist style. But that didn't dampen his spirit, because he finally had his chance: "I won't look back, I can go the distance." Through the trials and tribulations, he and his teammates fell time and time again. "But I won't lose hope, 'till I go the distance, and my journey is complete." - He thought, soon becoming the unexpected linchpin of this team, as he grew and evolved; withstanding the mightiest foes like the incredible Dragonite. "Like a shooting star, I will go the distance, I don't care how far, I can go the distance." - No matter how perilous the journey became, the Zubat, who was left behind to rot pressed on, and was flying above the world that once seemed daunting and peerless to him as a mighty Crobat. And when faced with the ultimate challenge, with his friends beside him, he endured the ultimate battle and emerged victorious. Against all odds and expectations, the lost and lamenting Zubat emerged as a victorious and triumphant Croabt; the centre of a Champion Team who went the distance and beyond.
Man I just love the energy you bring. I don't mind provanity, but it is nice to have a wholesome creator. If you see this keep it up my fellow Canadian friend
Not to be corny but these challenge run videos have been such a welcome distraction from what’s otherwise been a really rough couple of weeks and I appreciate them so much.
Bro you have absolutely lost your mind over the past few weeks, these challenges have been entirely insane! Just remember that you're allowed to take a break if ya need to man! We're still gonna be here when you get back, don't worry :)
Absolutely great to see you enjoy a full team for once. Amazing strats used throughout although post-ilex forest could've been easier if you delivered Kenya to get the TM and used Hypnosis/Nightmare to save HP Keep up the great work Edit: Just realised Bayleef wasn't as useful as expected, maybe a run would be easier with Quilava with Smokescreen so the enemy misses when supersonic is missing
I love his solo runs because it's how I played the game as a kid (like this is the one lol). But these videos are incredibly satisfying to watch. I can feel the relief and frustration in specific instances. Keep doing your thing brother. You know it's a troubling sign when you see jumpluff as the thumbnail lol
Every time I see a new video from this man. I think “wow, what a challenge how could he possibly one up this.” And then his next video, is even crazier. Bravo.
These videos are all top tier content. For some of these "impossible" runs have you thought about spawning in rare candies to skip the grind? Once it's "possible" to win a wild battle its feasible that you can repeatedly fight that same enemy to level to what you need from there or spawn the candies to "mimic" it. The time you spent grinding in the weedle run was murder, rip jrose
Paras learns Spore at Lvl 25 in Crystal, and the wild Paras go up to only 17 in the Bug Catching Contest. In HGSS, Paras learns Spore at Lvl 17 and can be found at 17 in the Contest. That's probably what you're thinking of.
@@av2279 I'm amazed Paras learns Spore so early, considering the _disgustingly_ late levels other mushroomy Pokemon like Shroomish and the Foongus line learn it at
What an amazing video. I'm really enjoying the month of JRose and the daily uploads. I know you worked really hard on these. It was a fun run, I didn't think there'd be enough time to beat Red, but wow does he suck in this game. Funny how you can beat him with Pokemon 30 levels or more lower. That Crobat is a legend. Really great strategy. You'd be a good stall player haha. Been enjoying the R/B solo runs too.
An amazing run! No items in battle, no duplicate Pokémon, and no cheesy all destiny bond/ perish song strategy. Just insane! turns out crowbat wasn’t the hero jrose deserved but the one that he needed
I like how you lined it up so when you said, “Battle Will again and again and again,” the game responded, “There’s no Will to battle!” 😉 Great video Jrose!
Just started this video, and all I can say is I really hope to see Umbreon in this. Sand attack/Double Team/Tail Whip, Confuse Ray, Moonlight and Toxic is all you need and they alone can basically solo the darn run.
i know this is an old video but these have been a huge comfort while i've been laid up in bed. i haven't been sick like this in ages, but your pokemon videos are so entertaining to watch. crobat is so cool, i've always loved it
It would have been so badass if you had used Fly for that last turn against the Dragonite as a pseudo protect, since the battle was going to be over before you actually got the hit part of the move in.
Thats kind of why I thought he had it, though technically it is still a use of a move other than a status one. Would've been really cool to see utilized regardless
@@Neceroe No, the Challenge was "Only Status Moves"! If the Challenge was actually "Pacifist/No Damage infliction": Curse, Nightmare and Poison inducing moves would have to be banned as well, as they're literally applying DOT(damage over time) and nothing else. While OHKO Moves would become legal, because just like Perish Song, they just insta kill, without dealing actual damage. And of course, the First turn of any 2 turn move would become legal... As well, as any attacking move if the opponent is Immune. Like the 2nd turn of Skull Bash against a Ghost Type.~ And ... Actually... One could even argue that the confusion debuff/status should be banned, because the self inflicted damage is still damage... Making OHKO Moves, Destiny Bond and Perish Song the only legal ways to kill an opponents Pokémon. And thus the early game impossible.
My prediction before watching this video is that Jrose is gonna' essentially be taking revenge for the Agatha Lottery by inflicting that same frustration on every mandatory battle...
LOL Jrose this was such a creative run my friend, I LOVE IT! Also, was this a ''feel good'' run for you to pay back the AI for all the status effects it's given you over the years....Agatha lottery SO deserves this 🤣
1:04:35 This was genious! Your videos are amazing, I've seen each one of them, and after dozen of videos they can still surprise - it also proves how incredible the Pokemon games are
These videos just keep getting crazier and crazier. I've always been interested in seeing how it would look to run like a full smogon stall team in game. I guess now i'll find out lol.
Stall teams aren't just "heal a shitload apply no pressure." A good stall player will be constantly gaining resources and applying pressure at the same time, so as to capitalise on your mistakes.
Jrose has been going hard with the good content bro, it feels so good to see a new Jrose in my feed every day. Keep up the fantastic work! You and Scott are easily my favorite Poketubers
I couldn’t help but notice new music in this video. I like the addition. Props to your editor. These videos must take a lot of work, especially with daily releases.
I love the idea of this challenge in later gens. More status moves available + abilities that could lead to some interesting strategies but with the AI on the whole being much better.
I have a feeling this challenge will be easier to do in red/blue. Assuming that Leech Seed will be allowed in the challenge, leech seed shares the same damage multiplier as the poison status effect so combining them makes for a pretty broken setup. Biggest challenges being fire Pokémon trainers and gym leaders. Bug type not so much considering how underpowered they are in gen1
That little Zubat really went the distance. All 16 gyms, the elite four, and even Red, he was always there to be the last bastard standing lol
Love the icon! Golden Sun doesn't get enough love~

My favorite part of this run was how Clair refused to believe that she was defeated by a ragtag team of Pokémon that didn’t attack her a single time
For an extra blow to her pride they were all under Leveled and managed to beat her first try.
It actually made sense for once
@@nemohimself2580 shes still a bitch though

After seeing the deeds of this Crobat, I guess one could say that the key to complete this run was the Power of Friendship(tm).
Cecilia PFP
Really Crobat was good because he just saved it for last and used protect. That’s it.
@@Begeru party pooper
Its said only Pokemon who evolve through friendship can use that TM. Luckily, it seems Crobat can learn Power of Friendship.
Zubat is the perfect example of "be careful who call ugly in grade school". Crobat is legit
And it's so sexy
Lately jrose has been creating content at a pace that can only be described as "hold my beer"
If I had to guess, his recent “break” was actually him playing nonstop for an entire month to prep for this month.
I'm getting spoiled
My partner called it "dedication"
If he asked me to hold his beer I would dunk my nuts in it.
because he isn't creating them daily, these are already made. Doesn't mean he didn't work his butt off to get the month of videos as he posted before, but this is why we are getting them daily.
"pokemon trainer" now an official job
@Gioacchino Sessa watcher pays? E we are the watchers
Man after just watching that painful Weedle run, I was hoping you'd cleanse our pallettes with something quick where you steamroll the game😂
I kinda thought he did the opposite with the much shorter nidoking run that came before weedle
Lmao yeah that was brutal. I can't imagine doing that run
Also I didn't even notice the pfp. My favorite band for sure
Awesome pfp, RIP chuck
I'm glad he didnt tbh. These longer videos are great and love the impossible series
Compared to Weedle this is an easy mode run.
Jrose winning through the power of friendship (technically since that's how Crobat evolves) was such an anime moment
Haha, true!
I can't believe watching Pokemon sleep and get confused for an hour would be this entertaining, good job Jrose
This is my least favorite time of year (my partner died last November) and honestly having a JRose video to look forward to every day helps. Cheers man

I remember watching the streams for this run. Was really fun. Glad it's been made into a video for everyone to see.
This whole run is basically the Pokémon equivalent of "Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!" 😂
I think it's fitting that in this run the major endgame battles were all won with a Pokemon that evolves by friendship.
After removing the Sudowoodo, Nightmare could've been an option on Haunter, would have been fun and useful this run
Crobat was the MVP here. It was there from the start and had multiple clutch victories. Jumpluff may have been the centerpiece of the run but Crobat's speed, confusion plus typing made it so that it could ensure victory whenever the team needed it.
One thing that could've been really helpful for this run is the TM for Swagger, which can be found on the 5ht floor of the lighthouse. Didn't even realize this move existed before gen 4 because this move can be potentially incredibly powerful on a Pokemon with the capability to setup reflect and increase its defence stats. The best option that I've found is Mr. Mime in Gold and Silver, but you could probably do something similar with Defence Curl even if Reflect isn't as available as I would've liked. Mind you, if you wanna do something really cool on actual hardware, you could transfer Pokemon up with the Reflect TM and then teach it Barrier.

Gen 2 was the stall generation. You can have competitively viable pokemon with no attacking moves.
Curse Blissey Curse Blissey
The most based generation and its not even close. Stall is the most hype Playstyle
Swagger and Screech Umbreon
That was an unbelievable run and an equally unfathomable idea. Well done man, you've been a machine this month!
These videos just keep getting crazier and crazier. I've always been interested in seeing how it would look to run like a full smogon stall team in game. I guess now i'll find out lol.
Stall teams aren't just "heal a shitload apply no pressure." A good stall player will be constantly gaining resources and applying pressure at the same time, so as to capitalise on your mistakes.
I call this the Gandhi non-violence run.
Loving this frequent content
Jrose has been going hard with the good content bro, it feels so good to see a new Jrose in my feed every day. Keep up the fantastic work! You and Scott are easily my favorite Poketubers
This is great! How long did you work on making this one?
Why didnt you use toxic?
My guy, you deserve a nice break after this. You rocked this. Amazing job! I'd never have had the patience to pull this off.
Turning the tables and putting every opposing trainer through the Agatha lottery
I couldn’t help but notice new music in this video. I like the addition. Props to your editor. These videos must take a lot of work, especially with daily releases.
Jrose you are the KING of challenges! I literally screamed out loud when Crobat used Protect against Blastoise in the end!
Crobat being a harbinger of Death here. Coming out at the end to herald the end of your opponent. Even easier when it could use protect and toxic
Jrose! Hope you get a Patreon or something soon so we can support you more directly!
I love the idea of this challenge in later gens. More status moves available + abilities that could lead to some interesting strategies but with the AI on the whole being much better.
Never heard someone so enthusiastic for Leech Seed 😂
Great video and a great series of videos so far 👍
I have a feeling this challenge will be easier to do in red/blue. Assuming that Leech Seed will be allowed in the challenge, leech seed shares the same damage multiplier as the poison status effect so combining them makes for a pretty broken setup. Biggest challenges being fire Pokémon trainers and gym leaders. Bug type not so much considering how underpowered they are in gen1
Unbeliavable. Well done! I love Crobat, I always have it in every game possible.
Makes perfect sense that the friendship evolution made the clutch wins happen. The power of friendship!
This man needs a vacation. Idk how you have 30 videos ready to go with runs like this and weedle lol
