    Just completed this challenge. The 4th gym was a goddamn nightmare. Was unable to beat that damn manectric until lvl 48. Made other gyms much easier. The elite 4 were also a bitch. Had to lvl to 98 to beat the elite 4 and then Wallace. Almost did it at lvl 88 but Wallace and that damn hyperbeam. Victory never tasted so sweet.

      feraligatr but only in the remakes because he finally got to learn waterfall

      I would recommend you a guy called Mah-Dry-Bread (MDB), he has done more than 100 of these Pokemon Challenges with Pokemon even weaker than the Starters. And in nearly all of them he also doesn't use any items in battle (no healing and or defense/attack up items etc.), besides the held-item of the pokemon.
      And obv the videos are very entertaining as well :)

    @cmauthor Год назад +2

    I first saw this video when Patterrz reacted to it, and that inspired me to try my own one-mon challenge. Within only a few days, I finished my "Can you beat Pokemon Soul Silver with only a Totodile?" challenge.
    Things I learned:
    1. Totodile CANNOT learn Strength despite Croconaw and Feraligatr being able to learn it, and none of the gift Pokemon you get can learn it either, and you need Strength to pass through Ice Path and get to Blackthorn City. I was forced to catch a Swinub in Ice Path, nickname it Strength, and use it to get through that stupid boulder puzzle in ice path (which isn't even really a "puzzle" it's just "push these four rocks two squares to the left each so they fall down the hole that is *obviously* meant for them, then fall down any of the four boulder holes and go in a literal circle to get to the ladder to keep going.") Seriously, you shouldn't even need to bother with Strength at that point because they already have a way to stop you from going to Blackthorn City before you finish all the plot-related stuff in Goldenrod and Mahogany: at the east exit of Mahogany Town, an NPC stops you from leaving if you haven't defeated both Team Rocket and the Mahogany gym.
    2. The "Totodile solo" challenge in Soul Silver is LAUGHABLY easy, especially if you're using a rom and can use the speed up function; I accidentally grinded (ground?) my Totodile up to level 14 before the first gym and basically breezed through the entire rest of the game. The only place I had any sort of trouble was with the Kimono Girls in Ecruteak City, which you're forced to fight before heading to the Elite Four; one of them had a Jolteon and fairly good AI so I just had to keep spamming Hyper Potions until the AI stopped using Thunderbolt and I could get a win. Either that or Soul Silver itself is a laughably easy game even if I hadn't accidentally overleveled my starter because when it comes to Totodile needing to learn HMs, it only need to learn Cut and Surf before you gain access to the Move Deleter, at which point you can delete Cut and give it Whirlpool, then after doing the Whirl Islands bit, delete Whirlpool and give it Waterfall, which is a pretty good move for Totodile to have and you'll end up with a Totodile that knows Surf, Waterfall, Ice Fang, and Crunch for the Elite Four and you can easily breeze through to being the Champion because none of the Elite Four in Soul Silver have Explosion, Self Destruct, Toxic, or any other annoying moves like that (or maybe they do and I just got lucky and they never used them xD)
    3. I really like doing "beat Pokemon ____ with only a ____" challenges, but only if I can use a rom and speed up the game 2 or 3x for the first tutorial bit and up until the first gym because otherwise I fall asleep while my rival is explaining to me how to catch a Pokemon. xD
