I'm only 8 minutes in and I already know this will be one of my favorite gauntlets. To see you achieve a goal you once thought impossible to yourself is awesome and very reminiscent of your gen 3 shiny absol. Having watched pretty much all of your videos the callbacks aren't lost on me and I like that you still reflect on things the same way. Thanks for all the amazing content over the years Matt. Looking forward to the years to come!
I like what you said about full odds hunting! I always thought I was too impatient to do a full odds hunt but this channel inspired me to try one, & when I (VERY EVENTUALLY) found my target, I found the same thing you described-- now that shiny reminds me of what I did for the months I was hunting it! I'll probably stick mostly to method hunting lol (that months long grind was a bit much for me) but it was a fun challenge!
I am here for Danny DeTreeto and Danny DeTreeto only. Also for your wacky hair that only gets more wild between uploads. Oh, did I mention I absolutely LOVE the gauntlets? Probably at least once per gauntlet upload I'd imagine. Great work, Matt! As always, beyond excited for the next one that you can concoct!
love that you used tales of symphonia music for the 8/19 footage bc that's my birthday and i love that game lol. i've just been binging your videos all afternoon while recovering from post-2nd vaccine does slog. great stuff man!!
Fun Fact: if you trade a Rotom from DP/PT to HGSS, go to Saffron City and into the Silph Co. building. Enter the elevator in the back with Rotom following you, and he’ll actually activate the elevator’s electricity, and you’ll be elevated into a room with appliances. This is the only time in the Gen 4 games where you can get the Rotom Forms without an event. Unfortunately though, if you transfer it back over to DP/PT, it’s forced to change back into a regular Rotom.
Good Work on the Videos If you ever Run out of Video Ideas (Hope you don't any time soon} I have made a list of possible gauntlets you could do as filler that would still be interesting: - Level 100 using only Status Moves -Level 100 using Only Transform -Level 100 By Using Isle Of Armor Kubfu Tower Story Challenge Only -Level 100 using Shiny Raid Pokemon Only -Level 100 using only Ability effects -Level 100 Using Held Items Only -Level 100 Using Gmax Moves Only -Level 100 Using Cramo-Matic (Can't remember how to spell it *Will Fix if Corrected in Replies*) Reply Any Video Ideas to this comment as I can't think of any more. thx
Thank you! It's very safe to say I will NEVER run out of video ideas, but I always appreciate the suggestions! I just don't get to upload/finish things as often because I'm always struggling to find the time to really commit to making videos
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon all good I understand your videos are very unique and you deserve every subscriber you get your videos are high quality and your close to your fanbase those are 2 things you should cherish I'll always watch your videos when they Come out and hope you get to your life goal on this channel I just wanted to show you I cared for your channel and love your content 💕
22:33 idk why, but that entire scene felt really nostalgic. I guess "We're gonna fish for some Magikarp" while on a walk reminded me of Pokémon talk with friends on our way home from the lake.
1. Your hair is on point 👌. 2. Your grinding set up is legendary. 3. You are not a loser. I know it was probably meant as a joke, but it takes some real dedication to do what you do. Dedication that a lot of people don't have for most things in life. I also really like your philosophy on grinding and how you always change it up to keep the tedium from weighing down on you. That's some good advice for anything you do in life. Great vid! (Also, I'm glad you and your family were ok after that hurricane!)
Now I know that the dude wasn’t joking when he talked about the monster magicarp. Talked to the dude and fished the pond, found a lvl 1 and said “huh neat” and never went back.
My first 3 encounters in that pond were all lvl 99 so I thought they were just guaranteed to be lvl 99 every time so you could get an easy lvl 100 Gyarados.
Yet again, You deliver us another labor of love. Thank you for this. I love your videos and the emotional narrative you generously provide. It gives me a healthy basis to approach my own hunts. Sending Love and Power, your homie Alfie.
I haven't caught up on your videos in a good while and I am absolutely shocked. The hair; glorious. The man; fit. The karps; immense. Can't wait for the next gauntlet
Dude, while watching you explaining about the Lv 1 Magikarp and it's rarity. It dawned on me that I encounter and caught one and transferred it to my White 2. So I quickly check my game and behold, I actually got that Lv 1 Magikarp. It's crazy to know I encountered it without knowing how rare it is. Thanks for the information man !
I'm just so obsessed at the level of editing you do - these are super fun pokemon challenges while also feeling like vlogs? And like you said early on, it makes them feel extra special
Those words were the most inspiring words that I've ever heard I even cried a little it makes me feel lots of hope thank you for that inspiring speech about shiny hunting
Seeing that grind, remained me of a friend who played Pokémon Silver on the GBC for the first time, went into Falkner's gym with a lv 68 Feraligatr. He was waiting for the game to prompt him the whole time, till he walked out of the town by accident after a few weeks later. He proceed to beat the elite four with a lv90+ Feraligatr with moveset of only HMs...
I come back to this video time and time again, something about it is incredibly cozy and relaxed, despite there being a shiny, a hurricane, and fireworks. By far my favorite!
Now do it again but get a shiny level 1 😂. But no seriously that took some serious dedication. I could barely bring myself to shiny hunt a froakie for my Y playthrough and i felt like giving up every time I tried soft resetting. But this. This is special. This is truly impressive 👏
the odds of getting a lvl 100, a lvl 1 and a shiny magikarp are: 0,0001220703125 (it might be wrong because I might be remembering the shiny odds wrong)
Such a good vid and I didn't think we'd get to see all 4 goals in this vid (level 100, level 1, a shiny and of course getting to level 100. Thanks Matt.
Love your videos! Ive been silently lurking forever but decided to finally comment. You keep my love for pokemon going. I kind of want to try my own lvl 100 gauntlet but it is kind of intimidating.
Now ain't this the american dream.
Fishing with a lawnmower while chuggin' some mountain dew baja blast during a hurricane.
So true
Yes
Underrated comment
Just wiped out tomato town
So this was the secret gauntlet
@Gavin Long why
Hatched a shiny Vanillite while setting natures for a competitive set while watching this! You got that shiny magic my man! Love the vid Keep it up

This is imo your best video yet. It felt like so much more than just a challenge video. It felt very personal, and the ending just felt really warm.
I like what you said about full odds hunting!

I just love these lvl 100 gauntlets, they're always so interesting. Can't wait for the next one
The King has Returned! Matt you have no idea how excited I get when RUclips tells me you upload. A+
This was so awesome to watch, I really love rotom as a kid and still do as an adult and keep up the amazing work Absol
It's crazy looking back at this, having you talk about the Battle Revolution hunt, after you finished the hunt for the costume.
Love watching your videos, I respect the grind!
Dude zelda music AND Dragon quest music? you're a god
Only Matt can make me sit down for the full 40 minutes beating up fish
You look good bro. Progress shows.
I've dedicated this new year to shiny hunt wild pokemon at strange levels, like lvl 5-8 Noctowl or lvl 7 Fearow.
I've been wanting to do one of those hunts, too!! I love those weird leveled Pokemon
This is my favourite youtube channel
Your hair grows so fast! Looks good on you.
Oh hey i remember tuning into the stream slightly before lv100
Hey matt :) how do you capture Ds footage? do you have a Ds capture card?
this video makes me want to try and find every single level of magikarp in White 2... I might do it-
22:22 Amen, brother
Always love your videos
Now you have to find a level 100 shiny magikarp with pokerus
It’s tree and Danny devito that can be a cheeto
Good Work on the Videos
If you ever Run out of Video Ideas (Hope you don't any time soon} I have made a list of possible gauntlets you could do as filler that would still be interesting:
- Level 100 using only Status Moves
-Level 100 using Only Transform
-Level 100 By Using Isle Of Armor Kubfu Tower Story Challenge Only
-Level 100 using Shiny Raid Pokemon Only
-Level 100 using only Ability effects
-Level 100 Using Held Items Only
-Level 100 Using Gmax Moves Only
-Level 100 Using Cramo-Matic (Can't remember how to spell it *Will Fix if Corrected in Replies*)
Reply Any Video Ideas to this comment as I can't think of any more.

Now you need lvl 1 shiny Magikarp
yes! love love love
I JUST REALIZED THE INTRO HAS GURREN LAGANN MUSIC
Yes! Definitely one of my top 5 favorite anime
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon thing is I've been watching these for a while and I just now realized
Wow he got a lot of ds copies in xmas
Today i have learned something really important
fish live in water
Gonna be honest Matt, over quarantine your hair has been doing it’s own level 100 gauntlet
But I'm digging it
^^same it’s looking good
Maybe the real Gauntlet was the hair style we got along the way
Yokaku 100
I’m going to sue you for abuse.This made me laugh so hard I fell out of my chair and smashed my head off the wall
14:00 dude im literally telling nintendo & u cant be mad
No offense, but you actually sound like a nine year old saying that.
Oh yeah, I bet his dad could beat up your dad!
26:10 well you still on the same hunt though so....
@@Flaruwu, be my guest.
@@breestringham1063, be my guest.
“Wow you’re such a high level, I bet you’ve KO’d tons of tough Pokémon along the way!!!”
“lol no I just beat up a bunch of magikarp”
lol
That's more than tough
"Rotom, short for *Rothomas* [...]"
God damn it, that one got me good.
I feel like Matt is the only person who’d virtually fish in a fishing spot
Imagine finding a shiny level 1 Magikarp
I did when I was a child..... i killed it
@@Tofu_Kiki oof
I mean, that’s possible through RNG abuse, but the odds of getting it through pure luck would be ridiculous.
I think Pimpnite did something similar before, maybe it was lv 1 shiny Gyarados in BW, if I recall correctly
@@lappy6047 dream luck
“Nothin’ but lake, and water, and ya know what lives in the water? *FISH* “
I think we’ve found a shiny hunt rivalling Pokemon Ranger Manaphy: finding a shiny Level 1 Magikarp.
The level 1 gyradose (I can't spell) would be better though! Since you can't get that from an egg
26:00 when Dallas was only at 8k for Registeel... yikes.

Magikarp Jump protagonist: "You dare oppose me mortal"
After he hyped the lv. 1 up so much and how difficult it was to find, I was waiting for him to fish it up on his first try.
By far my favourite part of the video was the epic club penguin ice fishing game music
Dang... It's speed ev's must be flowing
What a crazy 2020. Pandemic, hurricane, shiny gen 4 Magikarp, level 100 Rotom Mow. Love watching your adventures dude.
Oh man, I haven't watched you in like a year, you really lost lots of weight. Good for you, you look better than ever! :)
I was just noticing that!
I noticed that immediately.
this is not the compliment you think it is, especially unprompted from a stranger lol
@@brianberger1667 how exactly is it not a compliment so say that he looks good?
@@brianberger1667 I think he'd be happy to see that people noticed he lost weight
No Matt people swim in swimming pools to find shiny mudkips and squirtles. Love the video btw can't wait for the Crown Tundra Movie!
Your hair is fucking mental right now I love it
so this was the secret gauntlet that Matt was holding on for us for a while .. i know this one is gonna be an amazing one for sure
Plot twist: this is just one long Taco Bell commercial
Now I know that the dude wasn’t joking when he talked about the monster magicarp. Talked to the dude and fished the pond, found a lvl 1 and said “huh neat” and never went back.
Dude you used up the odds of one whole shiny there.
(I know that’s not how odds work but shhhhhhhh)
My first 3 encounters in that pond were all lvl 99 so I thought they were just guaranteed to be lvl 99 every time so you could get an easy lvl 100 Gyarados.
Yet again, You deliver us another labor of love. Thank you for this. I love your videos and the emotional narrative you generously provide. It gives me a healthy basis to approach my own hunts. Sending Love and Power, your homie Alfie.
Thanks so much!!!!! I really appreciate that, right back at ya
Slightly unrelated to the video, but god damn Matt you are looking spectacular! I hope you’re keeping well, can’t wait to watch this gauntlet.
9:35 And it was really NICE.
I see what you did there xD
I haven't caught up on your videos in a good while and I am absolutely shocked. The hair; glorious. The man; fit. The karps; immense.
Can't wait for the next gauntlet
13 seconds ago?
And they said it was impossible...
Return of the King!
Looks like Christmas came early
Dude, while watching you explaining about the Lv 1 Magikarp and it's rarity. It dawned on me that I encounter and caught one and transferred it to my White 2. So I quickly check my game and behold, I actually got that Lv 1 Magikarp. It's crazy to know I encountered it without knowing how rare it is. Thanks for the information man !
All 5000 of my magikarp fought there way for my comment to be in the top spot
magikarp living dex sounds hilarious and you should definitely go for it
The hair, the skinny bod and the uniqlo shrt combo, god its like looking into a mirror
Me: *watches other episodes then sees this* Well, I wonder how Matt has been doing?
Matt: 1:10
Me: *O.O*
I drank a Baja blast once....now I can see through walls
Also holy Magikrap, this is the best lvl 100 gauntlet, dude well done!!
Only beating god?? Goodness, how did you even achieve this??
I'm just so obsessed at the level of editing you do - these are super fun pokemon challenges while also feeling like vlogs? And like you said early on, it makes them feel extra special
15:27 imagine someone messing with mystery gift near your house for some reason
I remember you were talking about this one stream like 2 months ago thanks for finally posting this vid
Is anyone else freaking out about the fact that he has so many consoles???
The Highlight of My day right here. This is the quality content I go on RUclips for!
Omg pokepoggers, it's the man absolblogs, my favorite poketuber
Holy moly man you look like a whole new person, im so happy and inspired to see your lifestyle choices paying off. Handsome poke-lad, keep it up man
More like the level 100,000 gauntlet! Congrats!
me: how has he lost weight all of a sudden??
*goes for 30 walks for a single video*
New absol post? Guess Christmas came early this year 😎
Predictions before I watch the video:
The pokemon he uses is a magikarp
The magikarp's name is a pun using the word karp
"Where do you see yourself in 10 years time?"
Me being honest: 5:23
19:48 is that club penguin ice fishing music??? Absol your taste never fails
i loved ice fishing 😭
Congrats Matt- I can’t tell you enough how much I enjoy these videos. So glad you and your family were safe during the hurricane as well.
Thanks so much, I appreciate that!
ive been really depressed this past week, so i really needed this T_T im sure itll spark some joy, so you on the other side
cool name
I have not watched it yet but i know it is going to be good. Congrats on 100K! :D

100th comment, also I heard you can get a ton if level 1 magikarp with this thing called breeding
the odds of getting a lvl 100, a lvl 1 and a shiny magikarp are: 0,0001220703125 (it might be wrong because I might be remembering the shiny odds wrong)
I came back to rewatch this video and my goodness this is just incredible! GG man.
At this point the Baja Blast is his channel mascot alongside Absol
Such a good vid and I didn't think we'd get to see all 4 goals in this vid (level 100, level 1, a shiny and of course getting to level 100. Thanks Matt.
