28:35 I just realized: The reason why the literal inventor of cellphones asks you to deliver a letter to his son is that his son loves rocks and spends all his time in a cave, where no cellphone signal would reach him.
this is by far the best GDQ run I have ever seen. The memes that were born here, the pokemon impressions, the technical knowledge, the perfect marathon showcase attitude, and everything else has just been amazing.
I got to the technical difficulties before I realised they changed it to 'Pokemoh Emerald' up the top. I see you, techies, and I appreciate you. Great run, very entertaining!
I love Emerald, it was my first and to this day favorite pokemon game. I've played it many many times before. I was dumbfounded when he swapped the order of his moves during battle. Never realized that was possible. Learn something new everyday.
Watching with my 4yr old and EdobeaH's (lol) Charmander, Eevee and Pikachu impression had him repeating and saying "That's [insert pokemon cry he just heard]!"
This was a blast, thanks for having me! For anyone looking for more emerald runs, I'll be pushing for the world record over the next few weeks, you can catch my streams at www.twitch.tv/amoebauk Also follow my excellent co-commentators at www.twitch.tv/shiru666 and www.twitch.tv/kurddt
Every time I see Wally get a ralts first try I cry a little because I love the ralts evolution line and I spend far too long griding for a ralts in that exact grass patch every time I play hoenn
Ah yes. Pokemon emerald, the game where my eventual lvl 100 swampert stared electric types in the eye and said, "is that thunderbolt your best?! I barely felt it!"
well, many of the any% speedruns would actually satisfy nuzlocke conditions if they are beaten deathless. This one is an exception as you actually catch two pokemon on the same route but it would not be that hard to play around this. Ohter than that, playing with the nuzlocke ruleset would essentially just add another reset condition to an already RNG-heavy run so I don't know ...
By doing a "frame perfect manip", he is trying to exploit how Mudkips stats are generated. Instead of getting a completely random Mudkip, he knows exactly when to "pick" Mudkip to get one with good stats. It's all to do with exploiting RNG.
I'm surprised they didn't mention but in Emerald specifically, Rival 2 is different based on whether you fight May or Brendan. Brendan leads with slugma, which is safer to set up on since Wingull (May's lead) can confuse you. So the female protagonist is more consistent for a hard fight. But also in most games with gendered rivals the male rival talks less so even in Emerald being a girl is faster

To be fair it's the only Pokemoh Emerald run.
First Pokemoh Emerald speedrun period lmao
damn, that donation train was intense
I totally expected chat to not make it. 🤣
I loved the push on the end by the viewers. So much fun and hype
The Eevee and Pikachu impressions were *on point* omfg
The amount of happy that Edobeah gave me is way more than it should have xD
I’ve been waiting for this to be run so happy to have it
The pikachu impression was perfect 😮
Brilliant commentary!
I love Emerald, it was my first and to this day favorite pokemon game. I've played it many many times before. I was dumbfounded when he swapped the order of his moves during battle. Never realized that was possible. Learn something new everyday.
One of the most entertaining runs I've seen this GDQ. Well, so far at least just started to go through the VODs. ^^
Make sure you see the B&W run too, that was a riot
Very charming runner and companions :) great synergie between these 3 love it.
glad to watch this one now, i slept in and missed it by seriously just one block!!
Great run with fun commentary, love this game!
Man, wish I could have caught this live. Such a fun run. At least we have the VOD.
That Pikachu impression is incredible
that aphex twin record behind him. cultured
Portishead and Gorillaz too!!
it's more than that
I have seen the speedrun for emerald several times, but I never knew the rayquaza pokeball manipulation... mindblowing.
Always look forward to the Pokémon runs at SGDQ and AGDQ
Unfortunately I'm never able to catch these runs live, but super glad they get posted later to catch up on my GDQ fix
That donation push at the end was absolutely amazing. I love the gaming community! Also screw cancer.
gotta love the PC donation
Can you please explain? I feel like there's something I don't get rn 😅
Timestamp?
The Nostalgia hitting REAL hard with this one :')
I fell asleep while watching this live and started having a dream that they decided to run a blind randomizer live on stage
i can only recognize the gorillaz, aphex twin, massive attack, fall of troy and portishead albums - still insanely good choice of records to display!
omg the banter, the rich boy wally's wallet name comparison was hilarious. and the reactions were even better lmfaoooo
Best Pokemon AHY% Run I've ever seen
*Pokemoh
any run is great with Edobean in the microphone T.T also it was hella fun
Watching with my 4yr old and EdobeaH's (lol) Charmander, Eevee and Pikachu impression had him repeating and saying "That's [insert pokemon cry he just heard]!"
Holy crap, what an amazing run, great commentary, enjoyable from start to finish. And ngl, I got anxiety over them hitting the steveh goal
Impressive push for the incentive. AMAZING
This was a blast, thanks for having me!

Thank you for the run. Enjoyed it a lot!!!
This is really late but I just want to tell you that I dig the SAW 85-92 vinyl on your wall, very cool
"Wish me bad luck... we're both idiots."
This is going to be good.
I was not disappointed.
The most clutch donation train coming in at the end, damn
Very very hice ruh. Didh't mahage to catch it live but at least there's always the VOD.
Those donations! That was so close!
Every time I see Wally get a ralts first try I cry a little because I love the ralts evolution line and I spend far too long griding for a ralts in that exact grass patch every time I play hoenn
this was my first video game ever, I love it too death
That frame perfect button press at the very beginning is very intimidating. I'd love to run pokemon but idk if I can get these frame perfect starts.
is there text speed in this version? is it fast by default?
Yes and no, you have yo change it manually
So many good albums on his wall!
That is a fiiiiiine album collection in the background sir
If you look behihd him, you'll see that the ruhher has good taste in music.
What an amazing push by Twitch chat to beat Steveh! Good job everyone!!
Ah yes. Pokemon emerald, the game where my eventual lvl 100 swampert stared electric types in the eye and said, "is that thunderbolt your best?! I barely felt it!"
: o I'm amazed you cleared Flannery there
Props for the Fall of Troy album on the wall!
Donation incentive race gripped me to the end. GG Twitch chat
This man has 12 gamecubes behind him :O
I see that fall of troy artwork in the background. Rock on brother
I saw them live a few years back, very glad to finally own that record now as well
1:04:31: Amazing Pikachu impression!
Amazing pikachu impressions:
1:04:31
1:29:20

Playing emerald on my phone while watching emerald on my phone. The future is now

Awesome run for an awesome game
Great Pokemoh Emerald run.
44:26 Category Changes
That pikachu impression was fucking perfect

Nice reference, even if they didn't know they were making it.
H=N was the greatest moment of gdq
from this day, it shall be known as "Games Dohe Quick"
Look at tall those gamecubes in the back wtf
I hate it when my memory crashes and I have to start to square one :)))
Pokémoh Emerald at Summer Games Dohe Quick twehty-twehty-ohe
My type of summer
I watch pokemon speedruns hoping for the random crits to end the run.
Finished this game for the first time yesterday^^
In-game runtime: 56hrs -_-
to be fair, it took him MUCH more than 56 hours to be able to beat it in less than 3.
Now to do all the gold symbols, master contests, and the national dex....
Are nuzlocke speedruns a thing ?
well, many of the any% speedruns would actually satisfy nuzlocke conditions if they are beaten deathless. This one is an exception as you actually catch two pokemon on the same route but it would not be that hard to play around this. Ohter than that, playing with the nuzlocke ruleset would essentially just add another reset condition to an already RNG-heavy run so I don't know ...
2:49:10 WOW! I laughed when the game names came up.
I see a pokemon run, I click
yo I heard you like Mudkips
I found a shiny Cobalion in 99 encounters while watching this. This happening after finding a shiny Recice while watching the Black/White race live.
Ahy% WR btw
im confusedm why did he keep reseting at the begnining?
By doing a "frame perfect manip", he is trying to exploit how Mudkips stats are generated. Instead of getting a completely random Mudkip, he knows exactly when to "pick" Mudkip to get one with good stats. It's all to do with exploiting RNG.
Ahy Glitchless run achieved
Edobeah
2:38:20 if it’s not 100% accurate, it’s 50% accurate. You guys just got really stinkin lucky
dudes got 11 game cubes 0_0
This girls impressions are on point! Wow!
Aphex I see you
Why does everyone play as the girl ?
I'm surprised they didn't mention but in Emerald specifically, Rival 2 is different based on whether you fight May or Brendan. Brendan leads with slugma, which is safer to set up on since Wingull (May's lead) can confuse you. So the female protagonist is more consistent for a hard fight.
But also in most games with gendered rivals the male rival talks less so even in Emerald being a girl is faster
