Completing Pokemon FireRed with my Shiny Team - Elite 4 Round 1 & 2

  • The final part of my FireRed Dream Team Quest is here. This video contains a small compilation of my shinies as well as the Elite 4 Round 1 and 2. I hope you enjoy it!
    I thoroughly enjoyed this playthrough. Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen are among my favourite Pokemon games & I feel like this team is probably the best I've put together yet. I'm not really interested in stats, balance, EVs etc but the cohesion with this team was excellent. Sadly as you see in this video, Arbok didn't stand out too much in the Elite 4 but it was still very useful throughout. Charizard and Dragonite were the real winners and Cloyster held its own for sure.
    109,410 total encounters
    9,946 average
    11 shinies in total
    I hope you enjoyed this quest as much as I did. Thank you very much for watching this quest unfold.

      That was awesome Steve, Congratulations on completing your FireRed DTQ.
      Also congrats on beating the Elite 4.
      Pokemon FireRed was my first ever game, so it means a lot to me, it has so many nice thigns about it and it looks so nice.
      I think fighting the way you do is really nice, also animation give life to the fight for sure.
      I really enjoy these videos so much, hope to see more for sure :D

      I like him because he's genuinely passionate about shiny hunting and he doesn't clickbait. He could market his content like everyone else but he doesn't exaggerate with the "Can I beat Pokemon FireRed". His reactions are so much more realistic and watchable compared to most. I have nothing but respect for Sonikks.

    I played through my copy of Fire Red a year ago and Soft Reset for Shiny Deoxys. I was blessed with a very quick hunt. 2 days of resetting to get it. (I don't track resets lol) Just this past month I got a Japanese copy of Emerald and taught myself to RNG manipulate on it. Was such an amazing experience getting a full shiny dream team to beat the game with.
    Gen 3 was also "The Dark Ages" for Pokémon in my friend group. We were in middle school and girls, sports and M rated video games became what was "Cool" socially. My brother was way longer than me and if it wasn't for him making me still play Pokémon through that time when none of my friends were I would not be playing today.

    I actually kinda like the breaking TMs and limited move pools in these games. It makes you use different moves other than the usual powerful TMs like psychic and ice beam, and also makes you think about who you give the TMs to. You may have to play around with moves you’ve never used before

      I'm trying to 100% my Heartgold in all ways possible. One is to get my Pokewalker maxed out and get that Starf berry, get the last card star from the battle frontier, win all the Pokeathlon trophies and all events with all 493 Pokemon, all coloured prints, fill all 30 Hall of Fame slots, max my money on my card and with my mothers storage, all seals maxed out, and I'm also trying to get to 999 of all (reasonable) Pokeballs legit. So far all the Apricorn balls are atleast 150+. It's certainly.. a journey.. I do regret starting it in a way, but it would be nice to 100% my first ever Pokemon savefile.

    To answer some of your questions:
    Yes, I like gen 3 a lot! This is also the 'lonely' age for kid me, but adult me sometimes maks new memories with these titles. Love to challenge friend to Lv.55, linking up to the Gamecube and battle in 3D or just simply wireless somewhere we meet.
    My to go gens are 1/4, stopped playing newer games since gen 5.
    Heartgold and Soulsilver are my favorites I think, but honestly it's a tough call.
    The Stadium mini games are also very much fun :3

    Show the counters for each specific shiny separately, in addition to the total count that you displayed.
    Maybe also share your reactions to getting each shiny? It might break up the story telling vibe too much, but just a thought.

    I just gotta say, I absolutely love your videos.
    You remind me of myself back when I used to shiny hunt! The way you go into detail to explain the reasoning behind your hunts...I watched a lot of your other videos. Like your video where you got that shiny Wailord using that glitch where you can bike hop on the water. Even the little details like making sure you have a Pokemon that has Damp so that a pokemon can't use Self-Destruct, or Suction Cups so that the pokemon can't use Roar or Whirlwind.
    On top of that, you're hunting for 1/8192 shinies! In this day and age with all the tricks and shortcuts, people these days just try to pump out content as fast as possible...but what's so special about a shiny 1/1000 shiny? Not my cup of tea....
    Anyways, this comment isn't supposed to be about bashing other shiny hunters. As long as they're having fun, that's all that counts.
    This comment is about praising you!
    Keep up the 1/8192 hunts man. I know it exactly what it takes to get them. I used to be big in the shiny hunting community over a decade ago. Going over odds was par for the course.
    You've done some really cool hunts, too! You're braver than me, going to look for shinies in the Safari Zone so frequently, lol.
    Hearing this music gives me so much nostalgia....would hear this music playing all day during the summers. Random encountering all day, applying repels, hunting on 4-5 GBAs or DSs at a time...life was so simple back then.
    You have a new subscriber. Keep the 3rd and 4th gen hunts, coming! The 2nd gen hunts are cool, too!

    I love shiny Dragonair way more than Dragonite, but I think the colours green and purple don't clash well, like blue and purple, or green and black might be nicer.
    Also the shiny looks better in some sprite where the colour is darker, like if it had a darker green or even a different colour on the belly I might like it more

    Do you intend to make a LeafGreen Version with opposite Pokemon to your team. Kinda like:
    - Bulbasaur
    - Sandthrew
    - Vaporeon
    - Kabuto
    - Staryu
    - whatever you like
