Congrats werster! Also, really appreciate you always putting the FAQs in the description. I love reading about the explanations behind routing decisions.
NGL when he starts tweaking at 1:56 for missing that trick while he's so far ahead of the records it gave me some good perspective on how perfectionist these speedrunners are
I’m really curious how this run will look in the next couple of years, it’s so interesting how it’s gone from either infernape or Empoleon to now tentacruel and golduck. I’m assuming there won’t be any massive breakthroughs since other water types you can catch at that level kinda suck, like pelipper for example . But at least in diamond and pearl you could realistically tweak to other places such as stark mountain, so who knows if other Pokémon will be considered or whether it’s not possible in platinum idk but it’s super interesting
This will probably be my favorite pokemon game, probably because it was my first. I was definitely like 9 or 10 when I first played. I picked turtwig as my starter, got stuck at the part where all I needed to do was teach rock smash, by the time I made it to the elite 4 my level 74 torterra who I never swapped out got wiped out by the bug trainer and I was pissed. Ik this is random but thanks for the memories
is there a manip purpose to naming the Rival Roy or is the difference between picking a pre-named rival and typing in a single character just that negligible?
had a feeling the was going to be the run, but i went out to play video games w the family at about 2 hours in, funny as fuck to see it was barely over a 2:35 lmfao, at least next pb will surely be under that so no worries... right? :^) ggs though, can't wait to see more of the bounty runs honestly, i'm loving the friendship room runs even if they're a little on the shorter side.
"It's definitely a record."
- Werster after literally getting a world record in one of the best Pokemon games in the series.
he knows a 2:30 is possible that's why
nice job on the new record, werster
I cannot blink without Werster beating another WR of a DS Pokémon game
Maybe if you close your eyes for a minute, he'll break his own Pokemon Stadium record.
Th OG DS era (Gen 4 & 5) was the best era! Coming from somebody who hated Gen 5 on release and got back into the games with hg/ss
the description of this video is a great read,
fantastic run, gg
Been watching you for over 10 years now. Really cool to see that youre still competetive. Favouroïte speedrunner. Congraats on the WR!
Love the digs at Game Freak during a WR run. It's a shame that they can't figure out how to develop games for the Switch.
timestamp?
@@matthewyoung9088 around 17:35 or so when he's talking about Looker he made some quick jokes. Nothing super serious.
Gen 7 was peak
@@pantsumonsterWHAT😂😂😂 gen 7 built the coffin that switch gens nailed shut

Yeah I read them everytime. Very cool to get insight from a pro like werster.

Congrats, lurked for about an hour and knew it was teh urn! Good shit
All hail the duck!
ordering some fries, sauce, burgers, and a milkshake so I can watch and truly enjoy this run

aw man i wish i could've seen this live, congrats werster
Werster from three.... BANGGG!!!! LETS GOOOO
Good to see 10 years later still going at it
Wersters WRs lately seem to revolve around duck pokemon lately
especially lately
Lvl 69 Golduck, nice.
Watched it live, coming back to watch it again.
I was just checking the records for this game and I see a new WR by you! Congrats!
53:20 of course, this is where the magic happens 🤣 as soon as he gets the bike, it’s over
Good on you, lad, the crown is where it belongs.
congrats on recovering your title champ
It's kinda wild how a Platinum WR isnt much longer than a Red WR.
53:23
The bug is here
When the Golden Duck is doing it.....
LET'S GO, NEW WORLD RECORD

gg on the run
Congrats !! Respect the grind !
is there a manip purpose to naming the Rival Roy or is the difference between picking a pre-named rival and typing in a single character just that negligible?
It's so that he can make the seed he is trying to hit for the trainer ID. Spending the time to type it misses the seed
sob. he actually did it!! big gz
Charizard is game freak’s favorite Pokémon and it’s not even close.
Nice! Will you do glitchless?
Another day another record
You should make a split between Lucas and roark timing how long it takes to actually save the game
Congrats!!!!
Congratulations 🎉
so fucking real about gamefreak forgetting how to make good games.
X Special + Surf + STAB strat 🙌🏻🤣
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Fav speedruner Love the pastebin in the description.
I wondered what was up with the golduck instead of tentcoool 😅
well done! :)
Wow that's fucking impressive dude
It's not every day a Golduck takes center stage in a speedrun. By the way, why didn't you battle Maylene?
wow that was fast GRATS!!
Golduck is a god.
That's one bad ass mother ducker

If you could increase speed of the HP and EXP bars, this speedrun would be twice as fast.
good jub
very impressive
Think a Meditite+ run could be somewhat fast?
Would you be able to do timemarks for gyms?
I don't think that the FAQ explains this: Why does time not stop as soon as Cynthia is defeated?
I just noticed that Colin fucking Farrell was mentionned in the special thanks of Pokemon Platinum credits wtf haha
Another amazing world record!
Does the ball release animation change between balls frames wise?
3 rock throw failed in a row. Just the luckiest player ever
W!
Just how many WR do you hold now Werster?
83 across different categories
@@urban4151 that's insane
@@grrman so... ngl i completely made that up, he actually has 111 world records Lmao
@@urban4151 lmao your tall tale wasn't tall enough
Congrats!
gamefreak indeed doesn't remember how to make good games. especially pokemon
Any wild poke? In oreburgh mine
pogu
It's always Werster
🎉🎉🎉🎉
HUZZAH!
I love pokaymon
Aint no way
really quiet audio
quack
A critical to cranidos yes hagahahhahahhahahhahahahaja
❤
53:40 What the heck I thought this speedrun is glitchless and then that.
It’s not glitchless
Why do you use Golduck?
Cuz duck
Read the FAQ pastebin in the description. It’s a really interesting reason why.
Gg
Just outta curiosity, how come he used golduck?
Gm
Anyone ever done an Empoleon run? I’m asking because Piplup is obviously the worst of the sinnoh starters
...the description states the route used to be Empoleon solo. pls read the description
"piplup is obviously the worst out of the sinnoh starters"
excuse you. piplup slander is absolutely unnecessary
Pretty sure in every Pokemon game the grass starter is the worst
Gens 1 5 6 8 and 9 have something to tell you @@windwaker0rules
@@windwaker0rules Bulbasaur is obkectively the best started in Gen 1 as it is type effective against the first two gyms and gains xp the fastest.
Thanks, thanks
nice job on the new record, werster
