      The reason why you can hit ghost with Fang
      (insert attack because i forgot the name)
      That deals a fixed damage = 50% of oppenents life
      Thats also why dragons rage (the only dragontype attack in Gen1)
      Is not effective against dragons because it deals only 40damage
      Also Gen1 is broken *shrug

    It's so surreal to come back to his first Pokemon challenge run to see how far MDB's grown, and only realizing wow! The quality of his videos has vastly improved! While already starting at a very high quality tier!!!
    And also being hit with overwhelming nostalgia because god damn. I remember watching this when it came out. And now the RUclips Algorithm/Helix Fossil bit is a staple of his channel, as are other little features and quirks like the script writing + reading at the very beginning of the video :)

    I have a really funny incident to relate. Pokemon Yellow was my first Pokémon game and I had no idea Magikarp was an absolute useless pokemon unless it evolved at level 20. When the Magikarp salesman offered to sell it to me, I became really happy as the rock and ground types in Mt. Moon were giving me a hard time. My new Magikarp was pathetic and it couldn't even learn my newly found water gun TM. So when I saw that my Ratatta was compatible with it, I instantly taught him that move. Now I wiped my way out of Mt. Moon with the help of a Ratatta with water gun 😂

      Dig is only normal effectiveness against grass/poison types. The "super effective" sound effect is a glitch. Similar to how Weedle's poison sting sounds super effective against another Weedle even though it is actually 1x.

    7:16 - So *THAT'S* why I never noticed any change when playing Pokemon Yellow!!!
    I never knew what the attack and Dire Hit did as a kid, and when I finally looked up the move later on and saw that it affected your Crit chance I always ignored it because my assumption based on its effects in the first game were that the attack barely had any effect on the crit ratio, which is exactly the impression one would get if the crit chance was actually being *decreased* rather than *increased!* When I recently started playing Pokemon Uranium I was like "Geez, I do *not* remember Focus Energy being *this* effective, did it get buffed when I stopped playing the games after Gale of Darkness?" Nope, I just got the worst first impression possible due to one of the many bugs in Gen 1.

    oof, this was so much harder than it needed to be xD Minor adjustments for anyone who wants to imitate:
    -the water gun TM in Mt moon would make quick work of the early hikers, even with Ratatas crummy special.
    -Dig would have guaranteed easy victories against poison types, including ghosts. it's a 100 power move in gen 1, and only vulnerable to swift.
    -anyone who wants to try itemless like pikasprey would, doubleteam-rest-body slam-blizzard would probably be the moveset. evasion is way more broken in gen 1 than later games.
