There's a reason Lugia is known as "The Great Wall" in competitive. Not only its bulk is sky-high and its types have few openings to exploit, but it's also pretty fast for a wall and can often pop off a defensive move like Reflect, Substitute or Safeguard before the opponent has a chance to hit. Then when hidden abilities were introduced it got MULTISCALE, because clearly it wasn't bulky enough already.
10:06 No, we notice your efforts for good video quality. I for one really appreciate it. These games always have good contrast and crispness. Thank you.
Both myself and a few friends of mine work in different tech fields and I think there's a creed which is pretty accurate here: "People may not always notice when things are great, but they'll be the first to tell you that they're bad". Even if we don't always appreciate it, the video quality is peak and makes even these older games feel like newer runs every time
Now I feel kinda bad for watching the Game Boy gen runs in 144p because of slow internet. My other belief was there's not much visual quality to lose, either 😭
0:58 I vividly remember camping in Central Oregon and I caught Lugia during that trip. The aero blast animation and sound effect blew my mind because it just seems so powerful. We all have our little moments like this, which is why we love Pokémon!
As a quick note about the typing - Water/Flying actually was the preference of Lugia's creator. However, the decision was to make it Psychic/Flying for power reasons. Psychic was thought of as the type that projects the most strength when entering Gen II (for obvious reasons if you even looked at Gen I).
I remember as a child playing this game. I always loved having zapdos on my team and lugia aswell in alternate runs. But man did i dislike ho oh. now i know my child brain was functioning well. thanks Jrose, cheers!
Lugia was always the better in battle in my experiance. Love your videos jrose, such a blast back to the past..reminiscing of better, Simpler times. Thank you.
I used ho oh but that's mostly because I played a lot of gen 6 and gen 7 Ubers. Ho oh is by far the best xerneas counter available. Also has a decent matchup against primal groudon if not running stone edge and if you've played gen 6 or gen 7 Ubers you know to have as many answers to primal groudon as possible.
Wow. You really chuck’d that guy… I have no idea why these are so entertaining, but they’re just so easy to watch :) well done. It sounds like you still really enjoy doing it all. Congrats on your success!
Lugia has a subtle advantage over Ho-Oh in Gen 2. The Zephyr Badge provides a 12.5% boost to Flying-Type moves. Ho-Oh only gets Gust and Fly and has to wait until the Volcano Badge to get a boost to Sacred Fire. Luigi's Aeroblast is boosted right after the first gym. That and it boosts Atk too so that's another point for Aeroblast.
Nice, you're almost done with gen 2's legendaries! Now you only need a truck to push and a Snesel with Beat Up to painfully glitch out until it gets unrecognizable and turns back into an egg...
Waste of time on things we (your veiwers) wouldn't care about? Your vids are very polished, and you've consistently gotten more so as time's gone on. Thanks for the vid.
@@thekiss2083I actually interviewed the co-writer of the song a number of years ago. Turns out another politician with similar initials beat Herman to it.
I knew even as a child before the movie Lugia was better. I am pleased to be correct in this run. I know I've heard other people don't like the idea of moving out of the gen 1 videos, but I'm personally all for gen2 and gen3 runs once you complete the Jrosedex.
While I assumed Aeroblast might be better than Sacred Fire in the previous video due to its enhanced crit rate, I'm also pleased to see that Lugia's sheer BULK managed to count for a lot as well. Almost nothing resists Lugia's combination of Flying/Psychic STAB and Surf, and its hit-taking ability combined with functioning perfectly fine as a mixed attacker I think really helped compared to Ho-Oh relying on being a glass cannon and struggling when it couldn't oneshot something.
Favourite RUclipsr, favourite game, what more is there to say Having the ho-oh and Lugia runs back to back was a treat as well Finally I think having the sugimori art is the bottom right is a really cool detail, props to you/your editor
Yay, Lugia did good, I expected as much, and I still have my little Lugia figure from when SoulSilver came out and my PokèWalker with a Zapdos that's forever trapped.
i think youre underrating aero blast in generation two a bit, 100 base power with 95 accuracy is great (especially for a physical move, imagine cross chop with 95 accuracy). the increased crit rate may not seem that impactful, but in gen 2 that means a 25% chance for double damage, which is great! especially with a pokemon like lugia with middle of the road offensive stats. love the vids, keep it up!
@@bigfudge2031 Mewtwo had several factors going for it: higher offensive stats and speed than Lugia as well as bulk coming primarily from HP rather than raw defensive stats. Mewtwo also had DynamicPunch to help it against bulky Normal-types.
This video made me laugh several times, from the early Chuck-le to the improv rhymes to the rollercoaster of lategame battles. Also I shall never again limit these videos to 480p as with most other Game Boy footage. The details are very nice.
Definitely think it was a throw not using "Bolt Beam" when Lugia had access to it here. thunder + Icy Wind + Aeroblast + Earthquake beat everyone through Red.
The time you Spend to make the quality of these videos so goood is impressive. You have the perfect voice and mannerisms for this kind of story telling. Your channel is awesome!
sad because Ho-oh is my favorite legendary bird, but happy because 6:30 was my EXACT prediction for Lugia. The master of the Gen I legendary bird trio reigns supreme! all hail!
@@bigfudge2031 Mewtwo also has decent physical attack power, which helped it make use of DynamicPunch. While I wouldn't normally think of teaching DynamicPunch to Mewtwo, that strategy worked well.
Ya know, for all of the attention MDB has gotten over the years, this channel is, without a doubt, better for pure Pokemon content. I know it's absolutely not a competition, and all the love to MDB as well.
Called it yesterday! I knew the time spent on red with Ho-Oh would be eliminated with Lugia. Bulk is king when you don't have good matchups and just have to force your way through without one shots.
Is it weird that RUclips specifically recommended the legendary G/S runs a couple of days ago, right before the upload of Ho-oh/Lugia? Perfect timing I guess.
I'm convinced the algorithm counts videos that are scheduled to be released but hidden. Because I got recommended a video from a creator who hadn't posted in years a day before they posted a new video.
Been watching for a good while now and gotta say I do appreciate how much effort you put into these videos. I dont even play Pokemon much anymore, your commentary, editing, and personality make these videos shine and I hope you feel just how much joy it brings your viewers including me. Keep it up, happy Halloween!!!
Jrose should start doing these without speed-up. The change in game time when he hits a wall, or is checking video quality is significant enough that we can't actually day for sure how fast any of these pokemon can beat the game, especially for faster ones
The first two generations of Pokemon were the two I played like crazy as a kid. After playing Blue version a hundred times, I distinctly remember staring at the Gold and Silver boxes while making a decision. I really like the "underdog" in most competitions and felt since Silver was meant to be lesser than Gold (and I loved Lugia's design) I picked it up. Aeroblast animation is awesome and Lugia was a beast while playing. Glad to see he dominates the legendary birds.
Great job Jrose, when I saw Lugias attack stats I was like yeah it’s not beating ho-oh but it did which is really awesome and keep up the amazing work Jrose

I always liked how Gold and Silver each had their own respective unique sprites for every Pokemon. It's a small detail but I always appreciated it
A summation of the run.
So I started (Aero)blasting!

The Great Wall stood tall for 6 1/2 generations (damn you Ultra Necrozma) before it was finally breached. I'll always love Lugia though.
If they made it water flying hed still be GOATED @nerdstop5025
Lugias backsprite is one of the best imo. Especially when comparing it to HO-OH
Gen 3's black highlights personally look better than its Gen 2 sprite.
Don’t get me started on when it’s shiny
@@internetperson8224 Nah, that one is just cap. Ho-oh dominates against Lugia in the shiny department.
@ ho-oh’s shiny is dope
taking backsprites
Since gen 1 is almost done he’s teasing us for gen 2 with these last two videos
Almost done? The playlist only has 97 vids, theres over 50 left, right?
I don't think he's gonna do the same for Gen 2 because Johto is way more limiting in terms of strategies and the difficulty spikes a lot in the game.
@Ilsezwarts not sure if he will actually do middle evolutions but I hope he will
@@Igorcastrochucre he might to like the top 20 + all new pokemon for each gen, maybe.

It’s faster
@@Paniekzaaiertje Dude, spoilers.
We know speed matters but in comparison, defense does count in clutch situations
Mewtwo is built different

Me: Who needs sleep anyway?
Ay Jrose speaking my language
I love the smashing into whirlpools and waterfalls a couple time before checking if a Pokemon has actually been taught the move
Jrose to Lugia: "Oh dear, oh dear. Gorgeous."
Jrose to Ho-Oh: "YOU DONKEY!"

Posting 2 days in a row! Deserves a like my dude👍
At some point you'd think these runs would become boring but every time you upload I watch your videos not bored at all 😂 and it's been years

Dang Mewtwo, his time gap separating him from second place is about Lugia's time gap from the second worst, Moltres.
1 video each day between yesterday and today?! I haven't been this excited since the month of jrose. Also, you have to do mew and celebi for gen 2!
The awful puns are in full force this time. I'm here for every facepalm.

Ho-Oh in SoulSilver and Lugia in HeartGold would be mildly funny.
Gen 2 has such a huge place in my heart. Love seeing these!
Lugia's theme (from the 2000 movie) is one of the most beautiful experiences in life!
So beautiful Herman Cain quoted it repeatedly in his ill-fated 2012 bid for the Republican nomination!

Time passes, but Lugia continues to always impress when it appears!
Your dedication to visual acuity is appreciated!

Lugia has ALWAYS been my favorite Pokemon & this further validated it.
Lugia was always one of my top 3 - 5 mons. Love to see it 😅
"Surf is the difference here" surf has always been busted xD
Love your content Jrose, inspired me to nuzlocke run through these games. Keep up the good work
Lugia is my all-time favorite Pokémon 🤭
Glad to see it did well here
My favourite legendary!! I miss the old aeroblast!
Second place? I'll take it! But Lugia would have been my favorite regardless. I've been waiting for this one; thanks for the video @Jrose11 !

Surgery done, another JROSE update fuck yeah I'm so ready
Lugia is one of my absolute favourites EVER!!! I remember its damage being lack luster but I do not care! He's the goat, behind Mewtwo :D
I feel Lugia has the best change of beating Mewtwo or being in same tier. Guess I’ll find out.
Best chance, but I think Mewtwo will still be number 1.
2nd best not quite close
Just look at Mewtwo's speed, special attack and move pool, then think again.
@@bigfudge2031Yeah, the question will always be who’s 2nd best.

Psychic types proving they're behemoths in early gens once again. Psychic typing is just too good.
Only like two trainers use a decent dark type pokemon in the entire game and steel is the only truly threatening steel type
Lugia right behind mewtwo is unexpected but very awesome.
Jrose: "I'm not sure if Aeroblast will be any good."
