      I question the math on it. If it saves you a 3rd if a second on each Pokémon that comes out, but you have to waste time getting into red I would think the multiple times you had to waste time getting back wouldn't be worth it.

    Absolutely psyched red bar made it in. I think it ends up being one of the coolest aspects of the vanilla Red speedrun, having the ability to play right on the edge of risk and reward and eek out just a little bit of extra time with some risk. I don't think there is going to be a Pokemon that can carry red bar for as long as Mega Mewtwo Y will be able to, but I think there's potentially a lot of smart usage of it I'm excited to be able to see.
    This rocked. Thanks for the videos as always, they're consistently a blast. Also since I haven't said it yet, congrats on the baby!

      Appreciate it! It’s a very weird way to play the game but it does complicate some other mons. It’s already difficult to plan a good route as is but a Pokémon like Zapdos could probably swing it for a decent stretch but knowing how far would be hard under the ‘you only get 3 runs’ format. It was fun though. Maybe regular Mewtwo can red bar it all too.

    Since red bar is intentionnal in this run, maybe you could swap the bruises on the art with an angry mark or angry eyebrows :( => >:( for Mewtwo Y as he's getting serious.
    Yes it's new art to make, but it may be the lowest effort new art ever. Bonus points if you leave the selection box around the eyebrows visible.

    Mega Mewtwo Y seeking redbar: “Come at me then. Your attacks only make me FASTER.”
    I solo’ed Pokerogue with Mega Mewtwo Y. Absolute monster, even without Gen 1 crits or Amnesia.
    Thanks for the video!
    13:47 I believe you can technically skip the Pokémon Tower heal by fighting an optional Channeler nearby and having her walk to you, but off the top of my head I’d guess that takes longer than healing and manipulating damage to get back to redbar, not to mention that it might make PP management more difficult.
    (Also, I bet many other Uber-tier legendaries and Megas could maintain redbar, but I’m not sure it’s the most interesting angle for repeated videos. 🤔)

    I've been inspired by TerminalMontage's Paradox Pokemon Battle Royale: How well would Miraidon fare? It probably won't have Electro Drift until the league, but it does start with Dragon Breath to breeze through Brock, a rarity for Electric-types, and it can still get Thunderbolt after Surge, which is close enough in power to Electro Drift to see it through most of the game. Surely this, alongside its greater stats, should let it stand up to Alolan Raichu at least?
    Its special isn't quite as high as Goodra (only base 135), but it makes up for it with its whopping base 135 Speed giving it a high crit rate, and naturally learning Agility at 35 lets it accrue badge boosts, while Goodra has nothing of the sort.
    The other three finalists of TerminalMontage's video don't really fare very well. Flutter Mane is haunted by the fact that Ghost is a physical typing in Gens 1-3 (meaning it doesn't get a usable STAB until 35 with Dazzling Gleam; it _does_ get a STAB move earlier, but that STAB move is Astonish, which A: is physical in gen 1, running off of Flutter's cruddy base 55 Attack, and B: is extremely low base power), Scream Tail doesn't get a STAB move period until level 42 with Play Rough, and Iron Bundle has to not only deal with starting with only Present, but also its strongest STAB being Powder Snow until level 42 where it learns Freeze-Dry (or Celadon City for the Ice Beam TM), though I guess Whirlpool (which Bundle gets at 14) would be kinda broken with Gen 1 Trapping Mechanics coming off of Bundle's insane speed?

      Before the baby, I was thinking about a Miraidon vs Koraidon video but VS videos take forever and I'm not sure if I have time. ATM, I'm trying to finalize my Emerald workflow to get those videos to start releasing and then I want to circle back to some really old cross gen runs to see but I wouldn't rule them out. I think it would be pretty decent for sure. Those are solid ideas. If the Iron Thorns video or Tinkaton took off more, I would have probably kept going but there are like 1,000 Pokemon so its always hard to narrow down what to do.

    I'm a big fan of Megas, so I'm glad to see more Mega runs no matter what. Personally I kinda wanna see Mega Garchomp. In-game, its lower Speed from regular Garchomp severely holds it back, but I imagine in Gen 1 it won't pose nearly as much of an issue for it-but it will certainly appreciate the extra Attack.

    Mega Mewtwo Y was definitely pushing the boundaries for a top tier, without mistakes ,run in gen 1. Because after all it has it all, almost 200 special with the best typing and some great stab options, and let's not forget amnesia. These factors made the red bar strategy a very viable option 😮,even though you'll need a specific luck to make sure quick attack or sand attack will ruin your run. I bet that a lot of runs(and time too) were lost due to that, and that makes me appreciate that run even more, because I would have given up for sure ,to have that kind of luck,and even more if I don't really have the time to put into that.😂😂😂 Wow, you're amazing for pulling that thing off.😊
    I bet that even if it had to use weak moves (I mean bad moves or those that thier base power is less than 60),it would have a great time, maybe even a solid B tier finish.🤔

    "The extra 40 BP does edge out the extra 40 Base Special"
    90/50 means Psychic is 80% stronger than Confusion/Psychic does 1.8× the damage.
    Base 194 is between 393 and 486, whereas Base 154 is between 313 and 406
    In the best case scenario where both Mewtwo's are as weak as they could possibly be, Mega-Mewtwo-Y's Sp.Atk is 25.5% stronger, but if both are at their maximum, Mega-Y is only 20% stronger.
    Mewtwo's Psychic is 50% stronger than Mega-Mewtwo-Y's Confusion.
    This is like comparing Stomp to Double-Edge
    Or Double-Edge compared to Hyper Beam
