Hey all! I just wanted to let you know that I'll be streaming the first session of the SHINY-ONLY Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee Professor Oak's Challenge starting at around 10:30 or so since I'm having a birthday dinner with family first! Hope to see you there: www.twitch.tv/chaoticmeatballTV
Just an incidental thing, when I was doing a lot of SOS chaining, statusing a wild mon will make it never call for help, regardless of what status it has
That is some good advice. Thank you so much! I'm trying to do this challenge and am still on section 1 but I've never done sos before so its good for me to know
Also worth noting using a pokemon with the ability Intimidate, Unnerve, or Pressure will also increase the chance of the wild pokemon calling for help.
When you eventually do a POC in USUM, have fun Ultra Warp Riding for hours to catch the Ultra Beasts, the random Ultra Space Wilds Pokémon, and nearly all the legendaries that existed at the time.
These videos are great. Entertaining enough to watch when wide awake, and mellow and long enough to watch when falling asleep. Congrats on the literal and metaphorical grind it takes to make these. Good luck on your hgss one too!
I love the Alola games as a whole. SM had a superior story, and USUM had superior gameplay, so altogether they're a very solid generation, and currently my favorite. (Note that I haven't played gen 4 or 5, which seem to be fan favorites)
I think 5 is better than 4 by quite a bit I think 4 is over rated but it’s recently I have realised how good gen 5 is story wise black and white 1 are so good
you can't really judge that until you play the three games with proper story those being platinum, black & white and black & white 2. because comparing alola to the others when kanto, johto, kalos and galar lack stories and hoenn's is trash is a bad comparison
@@anakinsmith4770 True, but I can compare to Arceus (and to White 1 now, I've played it since commenting this). I gotta say, I still prefer S/M to B/W, but I have heard that BW2 are better, so the jury's still out. I'm about halfway through W2 now. Arceus is tied, I'd say. Also, the spinoffs tend to have good stories, but I'm not sure how involved GAMEFREAK was in stuff like the Ranger games or Colosseum/XD; I'll have to look into that. Also also, none of the regions *lack* stories... they're just *really* basic and bad for the most part.
@@antonitocotter447 not only that, the Dex in the Ultra games is expanded, with more pokemon from previous generations plus some other quirks to get them.
48:58 True. Also given how they deal with Extinct Pokémon it's weird that they aren't Invasive Species yet. Especially given that Alola finally talked about Invasive Species at all given that's probably a huge issue in the Pokémon World as many Pokémon are intelligent enough to make it to a place where they shouldn't quite be by themselves. Such as the Indian Firefish in reality who learned to immigrate into the Mediterranean Sea via the Suez Canal. Its sufficing intelligence to do that (in conjunction with its immense appetite) becoming an issue. In the Pokémon World with tons and tons of similarly intelligent lifeforms, the problem would be way worse. (Granted, that humans ever became the dominant species in this world is highly illogical anyway so putting too much thought into this is likely for naught.)
I feel like humans in pokemon world have higher resistance to pokemon attacks (since technically humans are also pokemon) but they have little to no attack (except some physic trainers) which led to them traveling everywhere and taking over.
Just letting you know, Poni is pronounced "Po-nee", not "Paw-nee". It means purple in Hawaiian. All the islands are named after a color, which actually coincides with the color of the corresponding Hawaiian island in real life. Source: Am of Hawaiian descent.
Kids are stupid but I think there should be an option to have to get help. Like before you play the game when it makes you select a language it asks you if you have played Pokémon before.
A different option for Rain during the Politoed chase is getting a Pelliper with Drizzle, making it hold the Damp Stone, and swapping it in to refresh the rain without using PP...
Honestly, USUM really do beat SuMo, in my eyes, in all but one thing: how they handled Lusamine. I _adored_ how Lusamine was just such a snide bitch in the OG SuMo games, changing her in USUM felt... off, honestly.
Same. I liked Og Lusamine more But I need to say I think the last battle against her is such a missed opportunity. Like they have a woman controlling multiple ultra beasts by fusing with them and then you fight her... in a normal pokemon battle
@@mariazollner5574 they intended you to fight her instead of her pokemon but they realised that hackers would just add her to their teams even if they made her unchatchable, so they made her a trainer instead
I got him when I was training my Pelipper, honestly when I am trying to catch a Gabite it took me 2 hours, but this thing shows up out of nowhere. Sometimes this game can be unfair.
these videos are so calm! had a not the best day and its so nice to unwind watching these. the way you said grubbin was so nice also, grubbin my beloved ☺️
This is the first Alola video I've managed to watch since I completed my usum poc in early December last year... 5 fuckin weeks it took to get all the fossils and stones out of pokepelago, but my Misdreavus stayed first time after showing up 2 days after starting the search 😂 couldn't watch anything remotely involving Alola since, that's how badly it hurt me. All this to say, good job man and good luck for usum, I swear to god I'll never play Alola again after that fuckery omg
I love your videos I binge watch them everyday. Can’t wait to watch the ultra sun and moon challenge and the scarlet and violet challenge when they come out as well as any new Pokémon games that come out in the future. You’re my favourite RUclipsr
As much as I enjoy watching the challenges, I have no idea why you would ever willingly attempt such a challenge. Racing to complete the Pokédex, sure. Grinding dozens of Pokémon to leave 30+ before the first badge or trial is insane.
I also got a shiny Poliwag while trying to find Poliwhirl via SOS. It was one of my first ever shinies, as Pokemon Sun was my second ever Pokemon game. Cool to see it happened to you as well
Sun and moon have their own little side story for me. Shoutouts to the island scan mons breaking Pokemon Showdown Legality causing multiple people to have been muted during the legality of "Destiny Bond Honedge", there wasn't an apology after they investigated it to be perfectly legal. Shoutouts to shiny murder in this episode. I'd love to see one of these with a modified perfect RNG seed to see how fast they can in "theory" be.
Yes! I think he's facing some difficulty getting motivated. He had a great first video, but I think he set the bar too high for himself on the first part of it. We should encourage him to set the bar lower and gradually raise it.
I would like even a minute video on the progress of his Pokéwalker challenge just so we know whether he is staying the course with that. I do hope he keeps at it.
For reference for Ultra Sun you could have gotten Mamoswine in the same section you got Swinub without the move reminder by breeding Swinub with an ancient power Smeargle (learned from Minior) so that ancient power would be an egg move.
There are two easy ways of getting heart scales as long as you have money. In the restaurant of Konikoni City if you order the last item on the menu Olivia will show up and give you 8(?) heart scales. The same thing will happen in Sushi High Roller in Mali City but with Nanu
I don't know if you will do that, but why don't you consider a POCchallenge on pokemon Unbound? it has places around the region here you can fight trainers for an unlimited amount of time, with also a healer inside(and the first one is before the first gym), level scaling so it's easier to train weaker mons in these places but it's also not a vanilla story and has some tricky puzzles as well
now I have an interesting prof oak challenge, a true prof oak challenge: pick a generation with version exclusives, and get the ENTIRE pokedex full. meaning all starters, will have to be traded. but also all version exclusives have to be caught in their respective version. I suggest gen 3 because you will have pokemon leaf green and fire red aswel! if it is not possible to trade for some reason I would agree that you can spawn them in if that is possible in emulators, but you do have to have caught every exclusive in their respective game before you can do that.
What’s crazy is that out of all the main series games I played, I think I caught the fewest in Moon. Like I think all of the Pokémon I caught fit in 1 or 2 boxes.

To respond to your question during the premiere, I'd love to see a POC run of Pokémon Insurgence !
Agreed :)
Definitely. I wanna see which delta mon he chooses for this as it puts a unique spin on the POC
I love insurgence. He needs to do more with it
Couldn't agree more
Deltas count as seperate pokemon and are different internally
When you eventually do a POC in USUM, have fun Ultra Warp Riding for hours to catch the Ultra Beasts, the random Ultra Space Wilds Pokémon, and nearly all the legendaries that existed at the time.

It’s not the ultra games
But it’s a DAMN good start-
He'll get there... Eventually... And make a whole movie long video out of it.
@@Velociraptor2000 It's because of the Ultra Wormholes.... isn't it...? 😰
@@antonitocotter447 not only that, the Dex in the Ultra games is expanded, with more pokemon from previous generations plus some other quirks to get them.
Alola has the slowest encounter animations out of any Pokémon games. Must have been rough grinding

You know, I totally thought that the cosmog you can get eventually evolved into the opposite box legendary.
"and now that I'm not being handheld"
So true, I wish they'd stop doing that, kids are not stupid, it's unnecessary!
At the very least have a "I have played Pokemon before" option.

prof. oak challenges are terrifying. Gen 7 is terrifying. You are a brave man
Yeah, politoed is hell to get in sm. I was scared for your sanity when I saw this.
52:52 got me in stitches. You literally called Lusamine a nihilist.
These videos are always great, thank you for taking the time to do them.
had to pause at 14:32 and cheer for alolan dugtrio looking flawless as ever
Honestly I’m kind of angry you killed the shiny poliwag lol. I’m over 2000 sos encounters for pichu with charm
That’s rough buddy

Once again, I still believe that catching a Politoed in this game is the hardest to encounter.
1:01:25 I am firmly of the belief that while USUM are the better GAMES, the original Sun and Moon have vastly superior stories.
Gen 7 [not the let's go games]
Is surprisingly challenging for me
Brilliant! Been waiting for this for AGEES!
Just wanted to say I love your videos bruh and congratulations in advance for getting 100K. I believe in you bruh.
Probably one of the hardest POC’s you can do out there. Mad respect and huge congrats to you for doing this.
I'm surprised and impressed your will survived going through this challenge dude. I feel like you deserve some type of reward or something.
I liked this before I watched it you gotta lot of expectations on your shoulders chief.
Much luck and much love bro.
I just realized that there are 8 moral trials, so it’s like the 8 gyms.
I feel like this isn’t New information.
What great timing. I just completed my professor oak challenge in ultra sun today. Gen 7 was a lengthy POC for sure.
When trying to catch Politoed I literally caught 2 shiny poliwags first.
I got him when I was training my Pelipper, honestly when I am trying to catch a Gabite it took me 2 hours, but this thing shows up out of nowhere. Sometimes this game can be unfair.
these videos are so calm! had a not the best day and its so nice to unwind watching these. the way you said grubbin was so nice also, grubbin my beloved ☺️
There are mechanics in this game I did not know existed

Did he get it in this run?

As much as I enjoy watching the challenges, I have no idea why you would ever willingly attempt such a challenge.
Racing to complete the Pokédex, sure. Grinding dozens of Pokémon to leave 30+ before the first badge or trial is insane.
Pokemon Unbound is the best Pokemon rom I've ever played, and its discord has the full documentation, so a POC of that would be really cool to see.
Yes I would love to see that
This is the first Pokemon game I completed the Pokedex for 100 % and I'm proud
Tbf There's Only Like 300 Pokémon In It lol.
Not sure how many Pokémon the Ultra DLC adds, but Id love to see it. Great video and love the format as always. Thank you for the amazing content!!
Bro called USUM DLC for SM. 🤦♂️
Ultra sun(or moon) is gonna dethrone heartgold
When you struggle to get 1 shiny and he kills 2 😭😭
You did this once in one of ur professors oak challenge, can you add on the side a “in this section the Pokémon available “ instead of “dex total”.
Hey great video dude! This must’ve taken a lot of work! Super impressive!
I’ve wanted to watch this for years now
I also got a shiny Poliwag while trying to find Poliwhirl via SOS. It was one of my first ever shinies, as Pokemon Sun was my second ever Pokemon game. Cool to see it happened to you as well

28:18 Sad but true. They're gonna need a Burn Heal after that.
Yay, finally, you released a new Pokemon Challenge, its been like, 2 or 3 months
Uhh, clearly you haven't been paying enough attention to the amount of uploads I've been doing as of the last few months then lol
I'm meaning Professor Oak Challange, the last POC you did before this one was the HGSS Pokewalker one thats 2 months ago when I'm typing this comment
Fun fact:bagon is called"Kindwurm" in german
If translated literally it would mean "child worm"
Plus it rhymes with lindworm, a kind of dragon. I really like that name.
Could you keep a timer on the screen so we see how long these e take in real time? I can’t imagine it’s any less than over 300 hours per play through.
Man I really Love your POC vídeos!
Awesome video! How's the pokewalker challenge coming?
Yes! I think he's facing some difficulty getting motivated. He had a great first video, but I think he set the bar too high for himself on the first part of it. We should encourage him to set the bar lower and gradually raise it.

Can't wait to see homeboy hit 100k
'Honestly, these things aught to be just roaming the skies, with how many fossils and DNA that seem to be recovering.'
SW/SH DLC: 😳😳😳
Damn this must've been a crazy POC I already feel tired just from watching this video
This pokemon game I really got back into pokemon and is one of my favorites
Shiny killer! >:( Thank you for capturing the Shiny Granbull...
Always nice to see a new one of these.
Absolute KING!
lets goo, so excited for this run
the good thing about murkrow is that its not an pelago exclusive pokemon in USUM. tou can get it from hauli cemetary at night.
I just realized all the crazy stuff he’s gonna have to do for just the first island
For reference for Ultra Sun you could have gotten Mamoswine in the same section you got Swinub without the move reminder by breeding Swinub with an ancient power Smeargle (learned from Minior) so that ancient power would be an egg move.
Man, no wonder Lusamine and Lillia never found Mr. Lost Dad, who in their right minds would even think of going to that pokepelago hell
please continue the poke walker challenge. that was awesome

I've always enjoyed your Prof Oak challenges so... you earned a sub from me! :3
One question do u trade evolved after the video to full the Pokedex fully ?
now I have an interesting prof oak challenge, a true prof oak challenge: pick a generation with version exclusives, and get the ENTIRE pokedex full. meaning all starters, will have to be traded. but also all version exclusives have to be caught in their respective version. I suggest gen 3 because you will have pokemon leaf green and fire red aswel!
if it is not possible to trade for some reason I would agree that you can spawn them in if that is possible in emulators, but you do have to have caught every exclusive in their respective game before you can do that.
What’s crazy is that out of all the main series games I played, I think I caught the fewest in Moon. Like I think all of the Pokémon I caught fit in 1 or 2 boxes.
What a fun watch! You're certainly a mad lad, taking on this challenge in Sun/Moon. I wish you the best of luck during Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon!
