It's not Christmas without Paraspectre's Christmas special! I don't know what I love more, the fact that TCG Neo Stantler notices that you've stepped in something or Delibird being 5 white Russians deep into it's delivery route. What a lovely Christmas this is shaping up to be.
This was a really cool video idea, I didn't even know this romhack existed. I was actually thinking about how much I wished there was a TCG game that had the Neo cards a few days ago. That said, it is kind of a drag that they mostly just made up new cards inspired by the Neo sets instead of including the actual cards, especially since most of them wouldn't have really taxed the programming of the Game Boy Color or anything
The Romhacking of this Game is Very New, Literally this Hack came out at the beginning of this Year and although curious things can be done, for now it is not 100% Possible to recreate the Neo Genesis Cards (Mainly The Pokepower).
This game looks so fun! I love the little changes and hope to see more, and in hopes of no one else saying this. The Crystal cards are special gimmick ones meant to change typing with each new energy type put down to counter for weakness, playing into this all with odd multicolor attack costs. They, kinda sucked irl but in this game majorly buffed it seemed to make them playable! And with this in mind, ever thought of a solo Kingdra run? It is quite a unique and fun pokemon.
This is awesome. Been following the Rom's creation on pokemon community since 1.02 and it has honestly come a long way. I know the creator is working on version 1.3 which will bring balance changes and some new "attacks". So here is hoping they keep working on this rom as the future for it looks even brighter now.
Awesome Christmas present for me, because I’m a huge fan of the TCG for Gameboy and Gen 2 TCG and I didn’t know this ROM hack existed until now. Now I know what RPG I’m starting next.
Sometimes, when life hits you hard, all you need is a new Paraspectre video ❤️ Thanks man, your amazing content is always a welcome sight when I open RUclips :)
The worst thing about this is that it's based on the first game. Which is not to downplay the amount of work that had to have gone into making it! I guess, I kinda hoped that there'd be a new story as well.
Wait, there's Pokemon TCG rom hacks?! Also, I understand why Delibird and Stantler are the Christmas choices but my Jynx will always be number 1 to me ❤
I just thought yesterday that it has been some time since my week sarted with a paraspectre video. And here you are surprising me again. Gosh I love how life works. I will now watch the video while getting ready for work. Thx as always
If we were to take the anime into consideration, Santa Clause uses Ponyta for his reindeer. Depending on how you feel about the rule set, you could use 3 ponyta and 2 rapidash.
I can't say I was a fan of this game, not enough Matthew for me. And of course, it's insane they didn't put any Parasects in there either. That Delibird card in the actual game is kind of nuts, though, because it'll probably keep healing your opponent. There's one to do a challenge with.
(Only because Stantler wasn't invented yet in the kanto episodes where he showed up...For instance in the Pokemon Christmas Bash CD, they refer to Santa's sleigh being pulled by Stantler)
This ROM hack is cool, but I do wish the cards were the same as their real-life counterparts, instead of being re-balanced. Amazing work on recreating the card art though. Also, I like how the Grand Masters use Crystal Pokemon, cause IRL Crystal Pokemon are terrible. Despite having an interesting mechanic tied to them, and the cards going for a lot these days, they were never competitive.
The original game (and its sequel) was my autistic hyperfocus for over a year and I memorized every card in it. How did I not know there was a ROMhack?
I don't know any/much of the cards that would be in this game, but do a P.A.R.A.S.P.E.C.T.R.E challenge in that you only use Pokemon that start with P.A.R.S.E.C.T idk it's an idea
Well Mr paraspecter, I've been thinking of a challenge idea because I also like challenge runs in pokemon tcg gbc as I have commented to you before. The latest challenge I've thought up was building a deck with the WORST pokemon possible. Seems simple enough, right? Well, first we must decide what "the worst" pokemon cards are. There are many contenders in single evolution lines, but as what I will call the haymaker theory would dictate early gen evolution lines are typically worse to stack your deck with than strong basic pokemon. If diminishing returns makes pokemon worse for this I will stipulate that to be a worse pokemon it must have a line with stage 2 pokemon. After evaluating the 2 stage lines for the worst of the worst I would say as a starting point the oddish and kabuto lines would be the two worst. Oddish is passable but does not gain much momentum. Vileplume is just awful with negative synergy between its attack and pokemon power. Gloom is the stand out (and perhaps the best card available to this deck) with its ability to auto poison and confuse. Mysterious fossil has its utility, and kabuto gets surprisingly utility from its pokemon power despite its 30 hp but kabutops is a real stinker with a paltry 60 hp for a stage 2 card plus expensive attacks. I might also include the gengar line here too ONLY if you limit it to base set ghastly and haunter (as the fossil versions are pretty good), however, Gengar is significantly better than kabutops or vileplume so it's up for debate. For seasoning I'd also throw porygon in the mix too as a deck filler Colourless even though it doesn't evolve just because it is so abysmal. If anyone thinks there is a worse 2 stage evolution line than kabuto and vileplume please let me know what and why, I'd love a good challenge. So with that in mind my worst pokemon challenge deck is based on the kabuto and oddish line. In my playthough Courtney with her legendary moltres deck gave me the most resets.
I'm pretty sure that's only what the modern Ace Spec Master Ball does... not the original one that was just look at the top 7 and that's not what the Professor Elm card did... I'd much rather play a version of the rom hack that uses exactly what the cards do
Too bad you don't tell us about the cards the opponents are using. You won Ronald, but how was his deck? But thanks to you I heard about this hack, so there's that. Edit: Should have watched some more, you started to narrate the battles like usual. P.S. Nice live action gags and the name you have is the best, as paras in Finnish means "the best".
P.S. P.S You know there is a randomizer for the original GBC tcg game? It switches the attacks that require the same amount of the same type of energy. That could be used for maybe a paras and parasect only challenge?

I somehow never thought to look up if there are hacks of the TCG game. That's really cool! All those card sprites must have taken ages to make.
I agree, they all look pretty awesome
Oh my gosh, the real christmas gift was learning they converted all that tcg artwork so perfectly, it's amazing
Right? They look pretty sweet I gotta say
Uvu
this really feels like it came out of nowhere... there was like one guy with a tcg gb mod tool for like 5- 6 years and that was it. awesome
It's not Christmas without Paraspectre's Christmas special! I don't know what I love more, the fact that TCG Neo Stantler notices that you've stepped in something or Delibird being 5 white Russians deep into it's delivery route. What a lovely Christmas this is shaping up to be.
Another Festivus miracle

@@landon9907 I gotcha. Still, I'm very interested to see where ROM hacks for this will go in the future!
Yeah I do agree with this. I’m also not familiar with the actual cards so I wouldn’t have even known if I didn’t compare them
I hope they at least update it with the addition of Darkness and Metal.

Yeah it seems like a lot of work was put into this. Very nicely done
That's so cool! I'll be checking out 1.3 once it hits. Been loving TCG neo
Awesome Christmas present for me, because I’m a huge fan of the TCG for Gameboy and Gen 2 TCG and I didn’t know this ROM hack existed until now. Now I know what RPG I’m starting next.
I thought it was a lot of fun, although it was my easiest challenge to date. At least the one with the least amount of losses.
Sometimes, when life hits you hard, all you need is a new Paraspectre video ❤️
Thanks man, your amazing content is always a welcome sight when I open RUclips :)
I appreciate that 😊
As if this new video wasn't good enough news alone, Matthew also gave the packs for Stantler? Truly a Christmas miracle, that.
I was just planning on defeating him into the ground for FUN. I didn’t know I would be rewarded for it too.
Oh hot damn! I literally just finished watching the final season of Ragnarok and now Paraspectre launched a video!?!?! Merry Christmas to me!!! 😎🤙
Haha glad I could help
The worst thing about this is that it's based on the first game. Which is not to downplay the amount of work that had to have gone into making it! I guess, I kinda hoped that there'd be a new story as well.
I really didn’t know what to expect with the story. But yeah, it really IS the same game, just with different cards
well, atleast the opponents decks seem to be modified to be better
Wait, there's Pokemon TCG rom hacks?!
Also, I understand why Delibird and Stantler are the Christmas choices but my Jynx will always be number 1 to me ❤
I’ve also already done two Christmas episodes with Jynx ☺️
Hey, yay! I was just wishing for a new Paraspectre video yesterday!
Wait, Neo? Is there a Gen 2 TCG fan game???
It's a mod
@@ACountrymansLPs Ah, okay. Still, really cool!
I recommend checking it out!
I just thought yesterday that it has been some time since my week sarted with a paraspectre video. And here you are surprising me again. Gosh I love how life works.
I will now watch the video while getting ready for work.
Thx as always
Perfect timing! Sorry I’ve been taking longer between uploads lately ☺️
good old matthew, making it on santa's hit list
It felt good taking all of his money again
As a kid I always thought Stantler was a Normal-Psychic type and Delibird a Normal-flying type.
Stantler does give off some Girafarig vibes
Yay a christmas episode!
But where is Jinx?
I’ve already done TWO Christmas episodes with Jynx ☺️ also, this is meant to be a Gen 2 challenge
@@Paraspectre I know I know. I love all your videos.
Fun as always! Interesting to see the hack. Also, Happy Holidays!
I was pretty pleasantly surprised with it
I’ve been recently following the channel. These TCG videos are amazing to watch.
Why thank you 😊
If we were to take the anime into consideration, Santa Clause uses Ponyta for his reindeer. Depending on how you feel about the rule set, you could use 3 ponyta and 2 rapidash.
I'd love to see more videos featuring TCG ROM hacks, be that challenge playthroughs or just normal playthroughs :)
I’m sure there are some other excellent ones
Should’ve used 3 copies of Ho-Oh, because Santa’s catchphrase is Ho-Oh Ho-Oh Ho-Oh!
That's amazing that people made a gen 2 tcg video game. This is the greatest gift a 32 year old can get!
Really a missed opportunity for the company back then. I think it would’ve done quite well
I think based on the statement by the creator, it's more like a novelty than a challenging game, but very cool nontheless.
I can't say I was a fan of this game, not enough Matthew for me. And of course, it's insane they didn't put any Parasects in there either.
That Delibird card in the actual game is kind of nuts, though, because it'll probably keep healing your opponent. There's one to do a challenge with.
If the actual Delibird was in the game, I wonder how much I would’ve suffered
14:30 Pokégods want to know your location.
Plain ol basement
Where's Ponyta? Santa literally used them in the anime.
(Only because Stantler wasn't invented yet in the kanto episodes where he showed up...For instance in the Pokemon Christmas Bash CD, they refer to Santa's sleigh being pulled by Stantler)
Also, Ponyta isn’t in this rom, and Delibird isn’t in the OG game. We’re in a pickle here lol
Jynx were also elves in the anime
Stantler is absolutely the reindeer Pokémon though. Also I don’t think there is a Ponyta here
@@NecromancyForKids yeah... and then that episode was banned
I was one of the people who asked for this! Thanks for the christmas gift!
You willed this into existence
Babe drop everything there's a new Paraspectre video _and_ it's a holiday one
The Halloween and holiday ones are the most fun to make. Tis the season 🍻
Xmas came early this year!
This ROM hack is cool, but I do wish the cards were the same as their real-life counterparts, instead of being re-balanced. Amazing work on recreating the card art though. Also, I like how the Grand Masters use Crystal Pokemon, cause IRL Crystal Pokemon are terrible. Despite having an interesting mechanic tied to them, and the cards going for a lot these days, they were never competitive.
I do agree but it was kinda cool having no idea what to expect here. It definitely made using Delibird easier
I think Stantler is OK, he needs 2 cards to start attacking
Okay how could I miss this?
Edit: ok fine I will subscribe.
The original game (and its sequel) was my autistic hyperfocus for over a year and I memorized every card in it. How did I not know there was a ROMhack?
I believe it’s fairly new. I’ve been told to play it by a few people though
I don't know any/much of the cards that would be in this game, but do a P.A.R.A.S.P.E.C.T.R.E challenge in that you only use Pokemon that start with P.A.R.S.E.C.T idk it's an idea
Haha now that would be something
A Playset of Ditto could have been argued as the other four Stantler.
I like the way you think
@@Paraspectre I did a similar thing for my Eeveelution deck.
Shadow Lugia+Scoop up
You should do type runs
Eait, theres a hack with neo pokemon?! Ive literally always wanted this, thats so cool!
Loosely based 😊
Let’s go. Based.
Does this mod feature all of the original cards as well?
I believe they replaced all the original cards
All of them are gone, save for energies and a couple doing the same thing. I believe Poké Ball and Switch are the same cards just with different art
aw thats kinda dumb@@Paraspectre
Well Mr paraspecter, I've been thinking of a challenge idea because I also like challenge runs in pokemon tcg gbc as I have commented to you before.
The latest challenge I've thought up was building a deck with the WORST pokemon possible.
Seems simple enough, right?
Well, first we must decide what "the worst" pokemon cards are.

If diminishing returns makes pokemon worse for this I will stipulate that to be a worse pokemon it must have a line with stage 2 pokemon.

For seasoning I'd also throw porygon in the mix too as a deck filler Colourless even though it doesn't evolve just because it is so abysmal.
If anyone thinks there is a worse 2 stage evolution line than kabuto and vileplume please let me know what and why, I'd love a good challenge.
So with that in mind my worst pokemon challenge deck is based on the kabuto and oddish line. In my playthough Courtney with her legendary moltres deck gave me the most resets.
Is this rom hack just straight downloadable?
It is!
Link to the guide? Link for the lost?
You should do more challenges in this hack.
I believe I will 😎
Nice
Jynx and lapras too or sneasel
I tried to keep it simple. Santa and reindeer ☺️
@@Paraspectre right I understand, but that’s cool that they made a neo set. Didn’t know
Nice, not much of a challenge when you get to use the best Pokémon of all time, but nice anyway ;)
It was my easiest challenge to date
There exists a WHAT??
It’s a good time!
Snow and ice? More proof that this guy is from Ohio, not Jacksonville
I'm pretty sure that's only what the modern Ace Spec Master Ball does... not the original one that was just look at the top 7
and that's not what the Professor Elm card did...
I'd much rather play a version of the rom hack that uses exactly what the cards do
I agree but it was still fun to not know what to expect
Too bad you don't tell us about the cards the opponents are using. You won Ronald, but how was his deck? But thanks to you I heard about this hack, so there's that.
