ADDENDUM THREAD (ongoing): Shadows are shiny locked for the AI during their FIRST encounter, but can still become shiny when caught by the player. For subsequent rematches, they can become shiny for the AI. The NPC that gives the player the Cologne Case only appears after defeating Dakim at Mt. Battle. (I knew this just completely forgot to add it in lol)
Cologne scents also remove exp gained. Also if you revive a fainted shadow pkmn after already having sent them out, and send them BACK out, they get a second bar drop the same way they do when normally sent out.
while I know this video is for Colosseum 1, in XD the shiny lock was fixed so that even when you catch shadow pokemon in XD, they can never become shiny like in Colosseum 1, so when going into XD after Colo1, just keep that in mind that you cant ever get shiny shadow pokemon
Yeah, I think it helps solidify the idea of how dangerous shadow Pokemon can be. I really like the returning inside its pokeball mechanic too. Pretty funny and helps the pokemon stand out as individuals more.
This is a good video- though the random quip about being a speedrunner wasn’t all that, and neither was the TFS clip, and although I haven’t seen any others (since this is my first one) you definitely are glazing.
You’re exactly right, I DO need a video I can eat to for every small topic, and I need to watch it so many times that it becomes a comfort video I can sleep to
“Hey everybody, its me! Sparkle, from Colosseums! Some of my favorite things are: watching paint dry, the Pokemon Black and White anime, using Shadow Rush 500 times, aaaaand dirt! See you all in Pokemon Colosseum 3!”
Ngl it's really coincidental you started releasing content in November, I personally have this really weird annual itch in my brain to revisit gale of darkness every November so being introduced to your channel has been a delight!
It's only if you lose/fail the initial encounter with the Shadow, not during its initial encounter. Hitmontop is really the sole problematic Pokemon here, as you're forced to see it battle Rui's grandfather, which is how it can appear shiny for Wes/the Player in the second, TID re-rolled fight.
Additionally, its exactly due to that programming that we can shiny hunt them ourselves. In the first battle they're shiny locked for the TID of the enemy trainer, so the opposite can happen; a nonshiny Shadow on the opponent's team can be caught and turn shiny for us. And unlike them getting the shinies, this can happen the first time we encounter them.
I'm no speedrunner by far, but it's beyond cool to get some solid confirmation on some of this in-depth info. Colosseum is such an awesome game, it's a crime that nobody's been looking in-depth into this stuff for so long.
2:37 something worth pointing out is that shadow pokemon are actually shiny locked, but the lock only works properly on the first battle. im not sure why this happens, but it *might* be because the game determines what the pokemon's stats and shininess will be for you on the first battle, and these stats remain the same on the 2nd battle. so its *possible* the trainer sends out "your version" of the pokemon during the 2nd battle instead of one thats properly shiny locked.
I'm playing a 100% run myself, and good lord I am so happy I learned about Metagross and Tyranitar's heart gauge before I tried to do those raw Exceptionally informative video! Helpful and thorough without wasting a second. Good stuff!
I also got the message "skiploom used its item without permission but couldn't find any" today, didn't know so many things you said in the video, super cool
Regarding the shadow rush section: as much as the HPs from the pokemon are shown as integers (= a whole number), it might actually be taken as a floating number (= number with a comma) within the code. Then, depending on how the roundings are done when applying the -HP/16, which also is a floating number you end up with two rounding factors: the HPs and the damage that are dealt and this can cause this offset of one damage. Here is an example that I've run on simulating the damage on 148 (Entei's health) but without rounding the health, the third hit would bring your hps from 129.5 to 120.25, which rounded using regular rounding means you had 130 hp and are down to 120 which is 10 damage shown to the player, even though it was strictly -9.25 (1/16 of Entei's max hp) damage which was applied.
I sort of doubt this since it wouldn't explain how values can vary between three offsets (-1, 0, +1). This would be a huge discrepency, example 75.49-4.9=70 (note 75.49-4=71.49), but now 30-4.9=27 never makes sense since 30.49-4.9=25.59 which is nowhere close to 27. This makes sense as round only selects two values of either floor/ceil. Also, more to the point, I simply don't believe that health is stored as a floating-point as there would be so many other issues, like being alive at 0.1 HP, and it would affect more than just this move. Most likely it's as suggested, HP -= HP/16-1+uniform(0, 4), where uniform(a, b) generates a random int32 btwn [a, b]. Unless I'm missing something here. This has implications far beyond just this singular move is the main issue tho
Oh, this is so cool!! I spent so much time playing colosseum as a kid, and I noticed that different Pokémon I caught early on had drastically different responses to getting called and such but figured it varied per Pokémon. That Natures play such a huge role is wild! Your videos are phenomenal and the group chat had a field day with the last one. I’m looking forward to whatever comes next!
These videos are really amazing! Funnily enough I just started playing colosseum for the first time a couple days ago and found your channel right after you uploaded the second video! Really enjoying watching these while I do my playthrough!
I may not play Colosseum, but ever since i stumbled on your video on Plusel sending people to the shadow realm, consider me intrigued to learn more as a subscriber. Keep up the good work!
I'm a completionist, and the minute I saw "Natures" was on fire, I lost it 😂 I didn't know there was an actual calculation tool for the natures, I just gave my Pokémon a massage and tried to guess based on the size of the dent it made in the heart gauge 😅
Your channel rocks! I started a new save recently, and I instantly remembered how awesomely different the experience is, compared to anything else Pokémon has to offer. It's awesome to learn things from a childhood game, I never questioned before :3
I found your channel about a week ago and was blown away with how funny, interesting, and well done your videos are even though you only have a few. Im excited to see how your channel develops further and cant wait to support you all the way, keep up the great work! 💪🏼
Just binged all 3 of your videos and it’s crazy to think you’re new at this. The videos play and sound as though you are seasoned. Awesome stuff, looking forward to more!!
This video popped up in my feed, and I’m so glad it did. I loved it from the start! Not just for its content, but also the jokes, how you present everything, etc. Chef’s kiss. Instantly subbed after the first minute or two. Can’t wait to binge the rest! Keep up the good work, and good luck on your runs!! :)
The video was actually really cool too, thank you for that, I actually really like all these intricacies of such an engine that would likely not get explored except someone who's really focused on the media got into it... Love that, great vid 🥹
Thank you for taking the time to compile all of this information and make a video of it! It's really great to have all of this data in one place, and I learned a ton from everything you shared. 0v0 I always loved this game, but never understood much about the whole shadow Pokemon mechanic aside from the surface level stuff. It felt deeply satisfying to finally know the actual numbers behind this mechanic and all its intricacies, so again, thank you!
The best pokemon content on the site, funny, not regurgitated, informative while not talking down to the viewer (looking at you every single vgc analysis). Keep it up, collosseum is a gem
Fantastic video!! I really love learning all this stuff about Colosseum, I really like it and learning all this deeper stuff is REALLY cool (I had no idea about the bar table stuff that is SICK)!!! I can't wait to see what you make next (though I absolutely will, time is quality), your videos are amazing and I love how you make them :D Also, I love all the arts of your avatar featured in the video, I'm really glad you credited the artists! Definitely gonna check them out
Colosseum is a game I love a ton so to get to finally learn so much stuff about the game we didn't know until now makes me giddy. Also I love the structure of the videos you've put out so far, they've been REALLY engaging and really help the info stick :D
The fact I already knew almost everything but still learned something new, you are absolutely wonderful to watch! Thanks for covering such a niche game.
I'm re-playing this again as my all time favourite pokemon game and your videos are just amazing, love the editing, the voice over, they are funny... keep them going!!
I am glad to know there's a community that still loves this game. It was absolutely one of my influential points in my poke-love. One of my OC's is from there, and part of the group working on the poke-spots
Now we're mawile gaming! Nice to see the numbers behind the hyper mode odds. The daycare walking method is definitely the strangest way of decreasing the heart gauge, always sucks when you get one of the 'boss shadows' with that as the highest decrease method.
0:16 Precisely, haha. I love your editing style, even when my internet starts dropping video quality it's still the perfect blend of informative and captivating. I look forward to watching you become a [BIG SHOT]
Love the editing and chill fibe. I knew the game from years ago, but never played. Someone taking so much time to test out the 1hp difference of recoil damage from a move from an old gamecube niche game deserve my sub! Let's go!
anyone else who didn't have time for all that nature nonsense when purifying and just left their gamecube running overnight while running into an invisible wall in agate village
easiest sub ever, i've always been enamored with the gamecube games and their quirks (unique icons for shiny variations being one of them) keep doing your thing, sparkle
Saw the Plusle video a few weeks ago and enjoyed it, RUclips recommended me this one as soon as it came out and it was also great, so subbed! I would love to see a video on XD Shadows too!
Great video Sparkle, like most I’m guessing, found you via the Plusle video, have been watching the speed run from ~7 months ago in chunks, looking forward to more videos in the future :)
I do not own a GameCube, I have never played Colosseum or Gale of Darkness in my life, and yet here I am still! Your last two videos were awesome, and this one only improved on them imo. All of the jokes were hilarious, keep up the great work!!
I really appreciate the effort and commitment to these videos! Colosseum is a personal fav of mine, and it’s nice to see the game still getting love after all of these years.
"Ore" in Japanese means "I". "Ore" is only for use by males. Also, "ore" implies that the speaker is a bit of a rough brute. For males who are not rough brutes, "boku" is a better way to say "I". I think that the region may be named after that. The Ore region is full of rough brutes and ut seems that the name is even pronounced like the Japanese word as opposed to pronouncing it like English people typically would.
your editting style is really good. i only really clicked on your videos because I watched an LP of Pokemon Colosseum once as a kid, but i think i'll stick around for a bit. :)
Just found your channel, this is awesome! Since you gave a bunch of fun facts and showed a Misty, a fun fact back for you: It's not obvious because the distribution is weird, but the expected value of playing a Misty in Pocket is flipping *exactly* 1 heads!
13:00 ok im convinced of future colo videos, subbed. But im warning you, if there isnt any ludicolo content in the future my lawyer will hear about this.
17:22 um, excuse you. Don't interrupt my visual simulation by putting text on the screen _explaining that the spreadsheet is for _*_visual stimulation!_*
0:13 -0:16 amen to this. Is crazy how much info and content does not exist yet even a simple beginner tutorial/update guide or tips for some games is just mental.
Okay i THINK this is the second video I've seen of yours and the "I don't expect you to understand this, i just need visual stimulation for the video" gag absolutely locked me into future videos lmfao
so glad i stumbled onto this channel! that's three bangers in a row tempting me more and more to revisit my favorite pokemon game (again..) any chance for a grand colosseum video? ik its a longshot since you run vanilla buuuut tbh its my favorite version of the game so i'd love to see one!
I used to play this game so much as a kid but I never hear anyone talk about it. Great to see it still has a community! I'd love to see a future video on Shadow Pokémon in XD :)
Never finished colosseum when I was younger because I was too stupid and lost interest, But these videos you’re making are amazing and gonna make me pull out my GameCube again, Keep up the content, extremely well made and entertaining! New sub from me :)
I love this game and love getting some good nostalgia from your videos but DAMN ARE THEY FUNNY I watch these at work and frequently find myself cracking up and trying to hold it together as to not be judged 😂
By the time I watched to 18:55, I checked your sub count and you ALREADY hit 10K. You reached this milestone faster than some players took to purify the shadow T-tar (Seriously 20,000 wtf).
Colosseum was my first Pokémon game and I didn't play any others until much later, so this channel scratches that weird hyper specific nostalgic itch in my brain that I imagine leads others to watch hours and hours of niche video essays and deep dives on the GBA games.
Save me colosseum video essays SAVE MEEE (seriously, I love your vids on this game sparkle, I really appreciate you documenting your knowledge and findings on them!)

@jeffcarroll1990shock Every topic teased was addressed once the necessary context was set up. I like my videos to be organized.
@@jeffcarroll1990shock You don't speak for the rest of us, sourpuss.
I love that Hyper Mode can just randomly make them attack the other trainers and that they all have an animation for it too
Yoooo Shayy
Trauma zoomies being a major plot point was not on anyone’s bingo card
Yeah, I think it helps solidify the idea of how dangerous shadow Pokemon can be.
I really like the returning inside its pokeball mechanic too. Pretty funny and helps the pokemon stand out as individuals more.
It's my favorite Froggit Speedrunner.

if you play on emulator you should try the ROMhack pokemon xg next generation, I’d highly recommend it

I have this but for ORAS content around Christmas lol

Looks like I had the right idea to use the 2nd and 3rd time flutes on them.
The way natures play a part in the mechanics of Shadow Pokemon is super cool. Really helps to make each evil mind-controlled virtual animal unique!
"Every minute topic needs a video you can eat too" is the truest thing I have ever heard in a RUclips video.
Subbed
thought the thumbnail said "is he gay" and i didn't think twice
Gotta love how this game’s 1/256 was an actual intended thing they did, versus just being a programming oversight like the Gen 1 Miss 👏

Okay i THINK this is the second video I've seen of yours and the "I don't expect you to understand this, i just need visual stimulation for the video" gag absolutely locked me into future videos lmfao
so glad i stumbled onto this channel! that's three bangers in a row tempting me more and more to revisit my favorite pokemon game (again..)
any chance for a grand colosseum video? ik its a longshot since you run vanilla buuuut tbh its my favorite version of the game so i'd love to see one!
I used to play this game so much as a kid but I never hear anyone talk about it. Great to see it still has a community! I'd love to see a future video on Shadow Pokémon in XD :)

Banger video, also your avatar is adorable
Never finished colosseum when I was younger because I was too stupid and lost interest,
But these videos you’re making are amazing and gonna make me pull out my GameCube again,
Keep up the content, extremely well made and entertaining!
New sub from me :)
3:48 if i wasn't subscribed before, I would be now.
Love your work! Great stuff as always!
Funnily enough, I just started replaying the game a while ago, so it's fun to learn new things in this game! Can't wait for the next vid!
I love this game and love getting some good nostalgia from your videos but DAMN ARE THEY FUNNY
I watch these at work and frequently find myself cracking up and trying to hold it together as to not be judged 😂
By the time I watched to 18:55, I checked your sub count and you ALREADY hit 10K. You reached this milestone faster than some players took to purify the shadow T-tar (Seriously 20,000 wtf).
that random gigi clip LMAO
Your videos are very entertaining and informative. I hope you keep making more.
Colosseum was my first Pokémon game and I didn't play any others until much later, so this channel scratches that weird hyper specific nostalgic itch in my brain that I imagine leads others to watch hours and hours of niche video essays and deep dives on the GBA games.
Save me colosseum video essays SAVE MEEE (seriously, I love your vids on this game sparkle, I really appreciate you documenting your knowledge and findings on them!)
yoooo the furret thumbnail is back let's goooo
