  • After an insane amount of support for the last Professor Oak's Challenge video, we're back again to take on the second generation. Today we're going to continue the journey of torturous Pokemon challenges and see how easily you can complete Professor Oak's Challenge in Pokemon Gold and Silver. This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

      Hey John! When I saw your first video on oak's challenge, I was very interested in taking on the challenge myself. After watching your video, I cracked open my pokemon emerald version and got to work. I really enjoy seeing you run through oak's challenge and it makes sense that the next stop for this series is generation 3. However, I would strongly recommend that you DO NOT do the challenge for gen 3. I repeat, DO NOT run oak's challenge for generation 3. If there was one word I could say that could deter you from trying it, it would be EXPLOUD. Without any speed hacks, without a lucky egg, without any cheats, it takes a VERY long time to fill out as much of the generation 3 pokedex as possible before you even face roxanne. I personally, love this content and seeing new things I can do to challenge myself when playing pokemon, but save yourself the heartache and quit while you're ahead.

      To be fair, much of the time that was spent active was enjoyed, and I'm almost certain a large chunk of the time recorded by the game file was just because he left it open while he was away or something along those lines.
      It's still a fun game to play through, even if you're doing it to make a video. He essentially just did the basic goal of a lot of young kids when they first played a Pokemon game, except he recorded it.
      Still, it's a lot effort and it's impressive he went through it all. But, it's not really "work" if you're having fun doing it, is it? (With the exception of the mindless grinding to evolve pokemon you wouldnt actually use. That shit takes forever and is boring af in the older games.)

      I did the same, but only because I used trainer/fly glitch in Blue version to nab one off a biker on Cycling road. I traded it to a Gold cartridge, then I traded it to my Crystal when I started a new game. Those games, I think, are easier than Gen 1, but Dragonite for the whole game makes it pitifully easy.

I can't even imagine how annoying training that Dratini must have been!
    Congrats on the shiny Gastly, too! I will say in Shiny Gengar's defense, it definitely looks its coolest in its Gen 2 sprites before becoming the dull shiny we know of today.
    Also, how limited the elemental evolutionary stones are in this game used to frustrate me to no end when I was a kid before I got Crystal/a link cable! I spent actual hours searching for another way to find them, including going back to the Celadon Dept. Store countless times just to make sure they weren't secretly being sold somewhere there. Really can't believe there aren't enough to get everything that needs one.
    Keep up the fantastic work!

      AbsolBlogsPokemon thanks Matt! I honestly have no idea why they thought giving one was a good idea. I understand that they want you either trade with another person or have more games, but one of each is mindblowingly dumb. It’s even weirder that they barely mention that specific people give them away. Considering you can’t even have every phone number at once, it seems like they just didn’t want anyone to finish it hahah

      To be honest I am a big supporter of code is law, so I am fine with using the cloning glitches to get extra evolution items in Gold/Silver. Faster than changing daylight savings time on Crystal over and over again and trading the stones you need. It doesn't give an advantage other than time use.

      How much, if at all, did you use the Daycare during this run? You spend a lot of time walking around fishing for encounters, and if you stuffed Dratini into the daycare while grinding all the other pokemon, you could have gotten it at least to where it learns twister to skip those painstaking first few levels. Not to mention when biking around for the beasts later.@@JohnstoneYT

      Johnstone I would have used jumpluff to catch the 3 legendary dogs. Since you clearly don't mind grinding for an insane amount of hours, it would have been easier to raise a jumpluff to lvl 40 (which should out speed even raikou), give it sleep powder, headbutt, mega drain, and sweet scent, and buy about 10 x accuracy s. Normally, in my encounters, after waking up, the legendary dogs attack with one of their moves (praying it's not roar). This is how I caught all of them fairly quickly, but I played pokemon crystal on my pokemon stadium 2 with dodrio speed, and I still was annoyed at the time it took. So I can only imagine what you went through.

    I think Gengar's shiny looks alright in the first few games. The distaste towards it now is probably because Gengar's normal colour changed. In Gen 2, particularly Crystal, Gengar's shiny is lighter than its normal colour. From Gen 3 up to Platinum, a pitch black Gengar is definitely noticeable. I think the hatred started around HG/SS after Gengar's normal colour was made darker.

    • @gengarzilla1685
      @gengarzilla1685 2 года назад +4

      Nah, the shiny was always just fine until Gen 6 and its models. Gengar is one of those Pokémon whose shiny was very negatively impacted by this shift.

      @MegaKBang 5 лет назад +14

      but you can get xp AND rare candy to speed this up with the pokewalker, also there is the pickup ability, which means bonus rare candy. so definetly alot faster than 31 hours
      edit: I take a little part of this. Pokewalker rare candys are only a thing if you have the sightseeing event(ot the sinnoh cave which is nationaldex only) route which isn't normalle obtainable anymore. But still, pickup rare candy grind is probably still easier and alot faster if you consider that rare candy drop rate increases every ten levels. so grindinf a few lv 100 pickup pokemon might seem to be the perfect strat for this challenge and probably every challenge from gen 3 onward for early game training

    This is amazing. One suggestion if you do continue this: add a counter for Pokemon that aren't available (trade evos and such) on the opposite side of the screen so we can keep up with that as well and see how many total Pokemon there are to any given point in the game.

    So i found something ... [edit : it may only be true for the gen 4 remakes]
    It seems there is a bug in the ruins of alph where if you use headbut on the trees on the top left of the map and you can get a lvl26-28 natu (witch is way over level because you can do that before the second badge or just after).
    The thing is this place has grass with lvl set for later in game, but you can't go into them. So i think all the map is set at lvl 25-28 for all pokemons. They probably didn't thought you would go back with headbut in this map, that's why using it there keep the lvl set for pokemon from grass.
    The trees can also drop lvl 25+ Pineco (witch would have made the grinding for his evolution faster).
    Very good job with this very hard challenge anyway ! (sorry for my english, not a native speaker).

    • @OnTheCorniche
      @OnTheCorniche 5 лет назад +1

      It may only be possible in the remakes !
      I don't remember if there is trees that you can use headbut on in the second gen games in the ruins of alph. Maybe cristal version but i don't know.
      I for sure found it in one of the remakes.

    • @OnTheCorniche
      @OnTheCorniche 5 лет назад

      Hum ... i found that a long time ago ...
      Now that i look at the map of all the versions i'm not quite sure witch it was.
      I remenber finding a lvl 28 natu with a lvl 22 team at the very begining of the game as i was searching for a heracross.
      It must have been in the remakes, i don't rememnber playing the old ones in a while. I also don't remember playing a romhack.
      Maybe it was the tree in the top left of the map behind the rock. But it would mean you need the CS ...
      I'm sorry if i can't help more.

    • @jamesduffy09
      @jamesduffy09 5 лет назад

      I don't need a Natu, I'm just curious because it's not mentioned online anywhere. Bulbapedia says Natu isn't even available in around that level in trees. Are you sure you're not misremembering?

    • @OnTheCorniche
      @OnTheCorniche 5 лет назад +1

      Well an error is always possible but ... that's a very strange memory to make up.
      I don't really get what i could have misremembering that way lol
      If someone could test headbutt on a tree in the top left of the map, behind the breakable rock and check what kind of pokemon you get from there it would clear this up.
