    Dratini was warping up this run with a big smile on it's face, because it only looks like a good pokemon,theoretically.
    Cheesing with warp strats throughout most of the game makes the battles slower,but keep of possible. Unlike Tentacurl, Dratini doesn't have a lot of speed of stats so it could bank on warp safely.😊 But they both having in common is a badge boosting moves to thier weakest stat,which made the run more interesting than it should have been .
    For a slow pokemon with a slow growth rate, F tier is not that bad.😮
    I really like how you're putting thought into the little details, I really liked the sprite for the overlay and thumbnail looks awesome as usual.

    • @GymLeaderMatt1987
      @GymLeaderMatt1987  4 месяца назад +1

      Yea it was an interesting run. If Agatha wasn't a thing or if it got access to EQ or Psychic, maybe it could move up a full tier and be more respectable but Yellow version and the ability to take Sub from Gengar made it feel alright. I had a lot of fun and learned a good bit from this one though, which is more than you can say about a lot of runs.
      Dratini was weird for the thumbnail. There's not much 'cool' official art or cute stuff so I went with something basic. I figured there'd be something really cute to draw but here we are lol.

    • @bateltheassistant
      @bateltheassistant 4 месяца назад +1

      @@GymLeaderMatt1987 Dratini really needed earthquake or even dig for Agatha,but I guess that ice beam is enough, because you can always fish for the freeze, even though it's really luck based.
      It seems like you've learned a lot , because you've optimized it as much as possible, especially with the timing the TM usage and the right kind of optional battles you would need for Agatha.🤔
      Dratini was really adorable there , I guess that even though you have been using a generic pose ,it still works really well in terms of composition and the credit goes to you for creating it.🫡

    If your snake is blue, you might wanna consult a professional.
    It's a shame that Dratini doesn't get Dragon Rage earlier, like around level 10 or even 20. Definitely wouldn't help late game, but might make the early game go by a little quicker. Just goes to show that Gen 1 movesets really are something.

    • @GymLeaderMatt1987
