- Playthrough Rules:
1. Only my starter in battle
2. No items in battle*
3. No glitches or exploits*
4. No Double-Team TM before level 100*
Other rules:
-- *Pokeballs & Pokedolls are allowed in battle

-- *Skipping the Rocket Hideout & Marowak is allowed
-- I play the game at 4x game speed (238 frames per second)

-- The bike is allowed (the bike skip is not)
-- Skipping the bike is not allowed
-- Saving between league members is allowed
-- If the solo Pokemon faints and I choose to blackout it counts towards my reset counter
*Double-Team:
-- Almost every Pokemon can learn Double-Team through TM
-- The TM can be purchased in Celadon
-- Using it would centralize the meta
-- Every Pokemon would use it to overcome tough battles at lower levels

-- It triggers the badge boost
-- Banning the TM allows Pokemon who learn it through level up to use it
-- I believe evasion is part of Pokemon and shouldn't be banned entirely
-- I don't want the videos to all be double-team spam though, that's not fun or entertaining

-- Minimize is the other evasion raising move, these Pokemon learn it through level up:
-- Clefairy, Clefable, Grimer, Muk, Chansey, Staryu

Scott, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are the first games (outside of remakes) since GSC that Venonat and Venomoth are in the regional dex. Hype!
So hype!!!
I love how happy they made venonat in Let’s Go, he’s so adorable. Can’t wait for his canon return
Hype!!
im so excited to use a fairy normal type in my playthrough!
I used a Venomoth with its hidden ability in BW2, and it was so good!
It's the second best Quiver Dance user of the game after all.
Scott: "unfortunately it's 70% accurate. Um, I mean 50% accurate."
Me: "I see that you are a man of culture."
I’m wearing a team sky shirt as I watch this. On point :D
That thumbnail. Koffing looks so determined to do this.
He is!
I for one am always pleased to see the beady glaring eye of our Dark Lord pop into frame every time you remind us you're taking the superior Dome fossil.
Yeah I’m going to assert that when you don’t have any appendages every physical move can be considered a “body slam”
I absolutely ADORE the animation edits like Koffing's tough guy battle face. This channel is really improving in interface and it is just such a fun and pure space.
Enjoyed the dynamic facial expressions for when koffing was at different health levels. Great vid as always
Didn't even notice at first but it's cool
Thats all done in post... these videos are great
Hey man, I just wanted to say that I appreciate the small animations when Koffings face changes throughout the playthrough depending on how it's doing....and when koffing faces off with Giovanni and all the pokemon line up ....chefs kiss
I love the small details of the pokemon getting all busted up on the side when they're in a bad spot in battle. It's almost unnoticeable but adds to the personality of your videos.
The fact that you basically begin your videos by explaining how much you love the pokemon you're running with / how you initially disliked it and ended up falling in love with it shows how much of yourself you put into these.
The quality of life of having the in-game time, stats, moveset and movepool on the side is so great as well. Overall very agreable to watch and/or listen to.
I like how koffings face changes along with ur reactions through the video its a nice touch
If you want a more diverse poison type, you should give Ekans a try! I used an Arbok growing up because I love poison types and the access to earthquake, dig, mega drain, and rockslide make it a really diverse attacker. Not to mention wrap cheese with glare.
Arbok my beloved
Arbok is actually "penis" backwards if you read it hard enough. bet you didn't know that
I truly appreciate the scientific rigor inherent to your videos. they feel like a true assessment in exactly how good the Pokemon is and could be
That’s the goal. It will never be perfect but I try to go as deep as time permits.
The Happy Koffing Smile is soo great, it makes me smile after a bad day !
I’m kinda surprised you didn’t resort to Bide strats against Misty, the mid-early Rival, and Surge fights. You can tank big hits fine, so letting your opponent knock themselves out at the problematic mons so you can worry about only the scrubs on their respective teams would’ve saved turns and HP. Against Surge most of all since it’s one mon with three particularly hard-hitting attacks.
These have become part of my Fridays and I look forward to each challenge every week.
I'm so happy, not only is it a Scott's thoughts video, it's a Scott's thoughts video about my favorite Pokemon line!
Glad I could please you Gabe!
Every time you mention "The Wrapping/Rapping Lass", I keep expecting Lucy Pyre to pop up like she did in MDB's Dratini video
Koffing has a surprisingly nice backsprite, I was expecting a Geodude-like blob
EDIT: this gets noted within 5 minutes lol
Excuse me Brent, we're going to have to ask you to leave if you keep ogling Koffings backside like that
@@brandontownsend2756 Brent is looking respectfully. 😤
Dude, I really love the information you display on the sides! It really helps me keep track of what's going on and it's very engaging. Always improving my guy, nice work!
Yeah, it’s all the info I want when I watch videos!
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Absolutely, ever since you made that FAQ where you said you try to improve 1 thing in each of your vids I've been playing spot the difference and these subtle changes you make are incredible. Raising the bar every time my guy!
Am I the only one who whenever Koffing appears, I HAVE to say it’s name the way you hear it in the anime? 😂😂
and now i did it after reading this lol
@@randaljr.8581
You’re welcome 😂😂😂
Yeah man ! I love when you do poison types. It's my favorite, despite its commonness and its weakness at first glance.
I LOVE the happy Koffing art you did for this one! Very cute!
I’m glad I discovered this channel, you have such a real and chill vibe, plus so many videos to binge
Oh my god, that Venomoth plushy is super cute. Poison and bug are also some of my favourite types; they're great.
The production value in this video is top notch. Great narration,too, per usual.
This was definitely a good entertaining video.
I like how the koffing on the side changes depending on how well the battles go.
Now that he’s using Koffing, Scott’s Thoughts has become James’s Games
I genuinely get so excited when you upload. These videos are such high production value and entertaining! With this being kept up you deserve to be up with one of the greatest! I've written this before the video starts btw so my guess is koffing will manage in the C tier
Update: well I was very wrong with my guess 😅 I was extremely thrown by its level up and TM learnset which definitely held it back alot!
I did think it was going to be much better.
Great video! I love the changing expressions of koffing on the side - a nice touch :)
Scott’s Thoughts Pokemon Lunch Challenge #15: I’m late today so I’ll be doing this for dinner before I watch. So Koffing has crossed on its body similar to very hot hot sauces. Since it’s spherical I’ll eat wontons and gave some ginger wasabi dipping sauce since it’s acidic and has the crosses like the bottle.
Love your videos Scott ❤️
I'm only a minute in, but I'm really excited for Koffing. Like you said at the beginning, I've appreciated the poison types more as I've gotten older.
I think it helps that the Poison type has gotten legitimately better over the years. 😎
@@autobotstarscream765 It has. In a meta where Psychic types are risky, it's decent and in the case of the Koffing line, it has Levitate which leaves it a sole weakness outside of Mold Breaker Ground attacks. It also helps that Fairy types existing makes the type a viable attacking type outside of strong STAB or status.
I'm absolutely loving these videos, thankyou for going through this FOR US!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
the quality of your videos just keep getting better and better! keep it up
I just noticed the little changes in the pokemon’s expression on the left side bar of the videos. What a great touch!
The time and dedication you devote to these projects is incredible. It’s honestly admirable - you’re far more patient and perseverant than I. Another great vid 👍
Great run! The Koffing expressions on the side are a great touch 👏
Again, your editing the Pokemon art on the left is a great touch.
Thanks for all the content, my man. I use your stuff to unwind after a long day of work/parenting. It helps a lot and you're very appreciated!
Glad to know what I do is appreciated. It makes me happy to know that the videos have this sort of impact :)
Koffing leads to my fav pokemon, Weezing. I'm not a pot head, I just like the idea of having a weezing that spews clean air like in it's original dex entries. Then it got a Galar form! Plus James' in the anime was great
Weezing is also my favorite Pokemon. Not the Galar form, but that one does look really cool though. But OG weezing is SO good with held items - black sludge+levitate+protect+toxic+flamethrower+sludge bomb is so good. Maybe there are more optimized sets, but I enjoy playing it like that.
James has so many great moments haha!!
@@targon749 I went the route of physical wall with Will-O-Wisp, Pain Split, Flamethrower and Thunderbolt. This was in Gen 4. It stopped a lot of things. Super-effective hits were more the key thing with Flamethrower and Thunderbolt since Sludge Bomb only really does more damage on comparative neutral hits.
I've been binging your videos after finding you a few days ago. Super entertaining and fun to watch. You've got me going back and playing Gen 1 for the first time in years.
Have fun with the games! Are you doing solo runs like these, Nuzlockes, or something else?
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I played through Blue normally with a full team just like I did back in the day. I'm definitely planning on going back through and doing some solo runs.
Those custom koffings are great! Really hope you'll post them somewhere. Great video too. You're doing the runs i thought about as a kid but never had the patience for.
I'm pretty sure "Body Slam" is just bad translation, in Japanese, it's called "Lean on", with the full move description as "The user drops onto the target with its full body weight. It may also leave the target with paralysis."
So apparently Koffing cannot drop onto the opponent with its full body weight I guess, since it's portrayed as constantly floating (it has the levitate ability after all).
But this doesn't really explain why Drowzee and Hypno can't learn but Rattata and Pikachu can learn.
Pokemon logic is just weird.
Also, according to this description, the power of the move should be determined by weight, right? I'm pretty sure it's gonna feel very different to be smacked by a Rattata and a Snorlax.
You bring up a good point. Koffing weighs only 2.2 lbs. It's a balloon, basically. filled with noxious gas. Even Pikachu and Rattata can put a force into their slam, but I guess a sentient poisonous balloon can manage is to tackle.
@@HighPriestFuneral This is actually an issue with some other moves (or abilities) that the meaning easily gets lost in translation, or sometimes there's just not really a cool enough name for it in another language. Body Slam sounds like a very sick and powerful move, but you wouldn't imagine it as slamming your whole body by using your weight on top of your opponent just by looking at this name (which is what exactly you would imagine from its Japanese name).
Like there's this move called "Assist", it's literally called "Cats paw" in Japanese, hence it's only learned by cat Pokemon. The concept of this move is based on the Japanese slang "You need a cat to lend you a hand (paw)", which means that you are so screwed up that whoever can help you in this situation you will just take it. That's why this move randomly picks a move in your party because you are willing to accept whatever help you can get in this situation. You really can't get the whole picture of this move just by the translated name "Assist". This is a kind of limitation of translation and it's really not easy to avoid in some situations.
Koffing is full of gas that causes it to float. Since it is full of gas it doesn't have a high weight.
@@hhjan594 Perhaps the move Assist should be called “Cat’s Pick”, which can play off the capriciousness cats have in general to those that do not know that and is probably a universal experience, and that capriciousness manifest in a random move chosen.
Of course, that then ruins non-cat Pokémon, but hopefully by then “Cat’s Pick” is ingrained enough to be a metaphor for picking a random move.
However, Body Slam should stay the same despite it being given to Pikachu specifically because a Body Slam feels more likely to be done by heavy Pokémon or fast, quick Pokémon.
I think the developers eventually figured out the power to weight ratio aspect of this move with Heavy Slam
Came across this channel yesterday, wiith the abra video. Watched this too. Fun channel so i subbed. Keep it up. The little animations on koffing are a fun thing to add into future videos with other porkermerns :)
"wrapping lass" is amazing lol. Love the artwork for her lol
Dude I love your commitment to the purple poison puff! Great vid as always!
purple poison puff for the win!
Love your content Scott, ever since day 1. The struggle was strong with this one, literally.
It was!
I had a Muk on my first team. I didn't know what I was doing, but it was a high level when I caught it, so it made it on to the team with all if the other Pokémon waiting around while I only used Venasaur and Haunter.
Can be a cool pivot and suport poke
Sludge, Earthquake, Strengh...ez
great video as always, glad to see your channel growing!!
I was just thinking about Koffing solo video and this was in my feed. I guess the universe wanted you to have another subscriber.
Looking forward to this video!
Glad to provide the Koffing run for you :)
I really love the emotions on the left hand pictures of the mons ^^
I have to say after watching other poke tubers for the past few years I never knew how much I’d appreciate all the info that you put into the overlays. It is literally game changing for me as the audience and others are not the same without it
Honestly the idea came to me because I wanted to see that stuff when watched other RUclipsrs. I wasn't always able to see the moveset or track stat changes etc and so started a year long project to get things where they are now. Hopefully it will spread and the viewing experience will change!
Between you and JRose (loved the shoutout) I’m getting my Pokémon fix. I love that you are distinct in your own way and provide a different perspective than other PokePlayers. Thanks for making my working from home life sane
Glad I can help keep you entertained while working from home!
Hey! I just found your channel and I love your style for these runs!
The Koffing on screen reacting with different faces, the intro things with the difficult trainers including unnamed trainers, the testing after beating the game to see how the run can be done better, all of the stats and moves being onscreen and updated so frequently
All of these elements are super cool! I come from JRose's videos and I still ofc love his, but yours seems great too and I'm looking forward to seeing more! Thanks for the fun video
Yeah, Jrose’s vids are great! Glad you like my style of runs too. (More content for you, right?) :)
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Absolutely
My dude, I just discovered your channel. Your content is fantastic! Easiest sub ever
Hey Cody! Good to have you hear. Glad you’re enjoying the videos.
I love koffings face expressions. Nice job :D
Koffing.... I love it. Especially the "Koffing!" cry. Good video Scott
Perfect timing for the video, I was just about to study for my final exam before summer break :)
Scott your videos are too good! I use this kind of video often as sleep aids but yours are too engaging and well done for that 😂. Amazing videos
Thanks!
I love the different expressions on the koffing in the overlay
I just noticed that the Stats box in the bottom left is being updated live with each stat change. Scott you are doing incredible stuff with this series! Love watching your videos!
It is! Glad you like it :)
Im new to your channel anf when i watched the vidoe with abra only i have been not stop watching your channel your a great creator and i hop u keep it up cause you very fun to watch
I’ll keep it up! Don’t worry!
Beside Slowpoke, Koffing is my favorite Pokémon, I got really excited for this playthrough even after so much struggle. Talking about Stuggle, what an ending during the first run, incredible.
Your UI and animations and everything is so good!
We’re still trying to make it better!
KOOOFFFFFFIIINNNGGGG
love your stuff man.
Forever asking for a slaking emerald run.
Glad to see you're beginning to love poison types as much as I do. As fellow Bug and Poison lovers, we gotta stick together.
Great content, like always.
Dennis
Scott I love your videos, more than any of the other play through RUclipsrs. Why you might ask, because you are just as analytical as me. You look at every stat, keep them displayed, examine opponents and calculate every damage taken and given. It’s fantastic, I look forward to every one of your videos, thank you for making them and please don’t stop anytime soon.
Hey Brandon. It’s nice to chat with another person as analytical as me! I always worried that this side of me would be too boring for making content, but apparently there is a need for it! I won’t stop, I loving every moment of making these videos :)
I appreciate the little Koffing emote editing :D
Love your work Scott - Poison is my favourite type and has been since Venomoth, The Psychic/Poison type, came out in Gen I :)
Good videos as always Scott! I also don't see many other poketubers doing gen 1 / gen 2 challenges. keep goin' strong!
Awesome, love the animated Koffing on the left
My first nuzlocke was with Pokémon Blue and it was quite the success with only 2 deaths. Sandman the Hypno absolutely leveled Koga’s gym. My second nuzlocke was with Pokémon Red. Koga did not go quite so smoothly. I lost a fully Amnesiaed Stace the Snorlax to a Psychic crit from the 38 Hypno Juggler and the favorite of the run Sirius the Arcanine to Weezing’s self-destruct… I’m glad you love it Scott because I have a feeling Sirius will get the last laugh when Growlithe gets its play through!
Wow, the transitions and the animations are looking spicy today. Keep on the good work Scott, love ypur channel
Your*
First video I've watched; you get a subscribe for your appreciation of Koffing and for not 'borrowing' catchphrases.
Excited to watch. Koffing is my favorite pokemon.
I just wanna say I've been watching since the beginning and I'm so happy (as a fellow Canadian) that you sound so much more comfortable on the mic now!! Keep it going bud 💪🏻
I feel so much more comfortable now. Before I used to be so nervous I’d make a mistake!
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon mistakes are human, makes you relatable and real and makes us laugh sometimes!! You're doing amazing
That overlay with all those stats is pretty cool!
Incredibly fitting that Toxic Struggle is the key to Koffing completing this challenge lol
Yup, so fitting
Didn't use the Koffing line myself ever, but my first copy of Red was used and had a (presumably completed) save file already on it with one of the more peculiar casual teams I've seen. I still remember it nearly twenty years later.
It was Pidgeot, Haunter, Kadabra, Aerodactyl, Raichu... and Weezing. No starter. More so this inspired my adoration of the Ghastly line and Aerodactyl but I remembered Weezing pretty well too and was in awe as it was one of the first Pokemon I ever used or interacted with.
Such a great watch for my Saturday at "work"
Probably my favorite poison pokemon of all time. I love the poison typing so that's a big deal. Gosh Koffing is amazing! I can't wait for this
Ouch
Yeah… ouch
I've always loved ekans and koffing along with their evos, so I'm super excited to watch this. =)
As a younger person (14) I really wanted weezing, arbok, or muk on my team. But sandslash is my favourite so that ruled out arbok. I tried a few runs with koffing and grimer on the team, but they never contributed much due to the poor move sets. I really hope arbok gets an upgrade soon, maybe a dual ground or electric typing.
Love your work Scott! Every episode is golden, adds so much to the Pokemon community. Looking forward to the day that you move into Johto.
Nothing starts off a good weekend like a video by Scott!!
Boy, this one was painful. There have been some rough runs, but this one just felt icky throughout (maybe appropriate for a poison type named Stinky). In the past even rough runs had some smooth patches but this one just felt like a slog no matter what.
Great video though! Thanks for yet another fun run!
It really did. It was unrelenting
The Koffing line has been my fav mons for over a decade!!!!
Yessss! So good!
I always hated wheezing. I don't generally like poison types. I have a bit of appreciation for this little guy today. I love learning about all these weird pokemon from your videos
Glad I could spread the Koffing appreciate :)
I have one of the older Koffing plushies. It was my first pokemon plushie so it's really special to me. Love my Koffing plushie so much.
This is BY FAR the best Gen 1 channel out there! Keep it up!
Grimer next, please, need to show continous love for the Super Nerd pokemons!🤪
Ekans next. Hopefully I’ll revisit Grimer soon. My old video on it is so cringe haha
First time commenter here. Just wanted to say how much I look forward to your new vids. Watching your older vids and seeing you level up your visual style has been amazing, and I really appreciate the facial expressions of Koffing, especially around Blaine and Sabrina, then again at Agatha! Thanks for making these videos!
You're welcome Matthew! Thanks so much for the comment, it was really nice to read today. The journey has been really enjoyable for me as well, see you in my next video!
This is amazing, I almost commented a request for a Koffing run under your last video :)
Here you are! Hope it was what you were looking for!
Love the Jrose meme at 35:28, keep up the great work Scott!
Shawn is responsible for that meme. As soon as I saw it I loved it too!
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Brilliant, glad you and Shawn enjoy Jrose's playthroughs too
I have the same venomoth plush as well as the venonat. I love the sitting cuites/fit line because they make all the Pokémon so all the bugs and forgotten Pokémon get love.
That clutch smokescreen strat against koga! 😂
Love these. Love the new rules as well
I just love the fact that the koffing on the left change expression based on how many hp has left. That is so cool. Oh and also it becomes very happy when he wins an important battle, like the rival ones. Good video
Thanks Schumi! Glad you enjoyed the expressions! They were really fun to draw.
@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon thanks to you for making these videos. They are really fun to watch. Also, i didn't know that the koffing expression were draw by you, i must say that i found them very well made
I've been watching jrose for a little while now and so finding you is such a gem. Your videos have a similar feel to his but are still unique to you. Other youtubers that run through solo challenges just have something about them that makes me not usually like their videos enough to watch through the entirety of it and I still can't put my finger around what it is but I don't have the issue with your vids 👍
Wow, thank you! Jrose is one of my inspirations for making this content. I'm glad my stuff is unique from his, it's taken awhile to find my own style!
LOL love the facial expressions in the overlay 😂
Grimer is the happiest slimy puddle that you'll ever meet, I still claim it's the most adorable of all, I'm glad you included a picture of it at the beginning ^_^
Also, I love the little face change on Koffing during the Brock knockout. That's really neat attention to detail :)
Back to actually watching the video, thank you for your time \o/
Edit: KOFFING IS SO HAPPY TO BEAT BROCK, I love it
Edit 2: To answer the question: Nope, aside from loving how Arcanine looked, I basically went with everything Psychic, because I realized how powerful the typing was. Mewtwo, Jinx, Exeggecutor, Alakazam were the mainstays of my Pokémon Stadium completion. I didn't realize until I was way older, how adorable Grimer looked... And Koffing, because... Look at that smile on the left side of the video :)
The mental image of Koffing yeeting itself into Jolteon (Struggle) with that derpy ass grin on its face is great lmao
i love your custom art!
