The guy who made the guide most likely just used a Charizard for all the run, making it overleveled and this is why fire type attacks are so good agains Giovanni and Lorelei
Why not? The second half of the game is where the Charmander line really shines, Erika is burnt to a crisp and then Koga has his Bugs which also get burned up, Dig makes it even more dangerous as it can take out Team Rocket and Dig also has advantages in Blaine's Gym. But I almost never teach it to Charmander since Sandshrew needs it to be effective and others need it worse than Charmander.Also Fly really adds to its versatility and it can help in the Elite Four fights, except Lorelei. But by then, Charizard is mostly my Flyer. You have other Pokemon that compliment it well.
@@tristankeightley8214 I was thinking the same thing but it's most likely desensitization. We all know them as battles and what they are as battles. Combat is just another similar word but because it's not associated with Pokemon it makes it feel more impactful.
I find it really wholesome how you keep using "hammer away" as a citation to that wonderful guy who wrote some of the guides from the early videos in the series; how you initially made light of the wording but then came to embrace it when you read he passed away.. And now you bring forth his legacy; it's a small thing, but it always puts a smile on my face.
He made fun of a guy and then did a 180 to avoid feeling guilty about it, using a person's death to manipulate you into thinking he's a decent dude. Nothing wholesome about it; more like sociopathic.

@@siru47 Yeah, Yellow was essentially meant to be a game version of the anime, with some tweaks to allow you to beat the champion instead of waiting 25 or so years to do it in Alola.
I love the fact that with every nintended video that goes by, the guide reference vocabulary gets bigger. Type trump, hammer, away and lay down the law, all making triumphant returns here.
First game I ever got was Pokémon yellow from my father when I was 4, I’m 22 now and still play the cartridge. He passed away recently but I still think of him every time I see anything Pokémon and it keeps me going.
The Pokémon tower Channelers all are possessed, at least that’s what I thought as a kid playing through- they all seem to wake up from their kekeke ways after you beat them, and the one next to the healing spot does explain that she created it since she wasn’t kekeke-ing anymore
They definitely are. "What happened?" "Something fell out" "The spirit is gone now". I didn't talk to them after the battles so I don't know if they have more to say aside from their 'defeated' lines.
A tip for getting that Bulbasaur as soon as possible: I remember playing this as a kid, and knowing that if your Pikachu is on full health, you can spam potions on it without using them up, but it still increases your friendship 😉
@Tauson Kahl I played Pokémon Yellow! Since it’s just a rehash of Pokémon Red/Blue/Green, GameFreak needed a new gimmick. I loved following Pikachu and it can even show facial expressions when you talk to him (no genders in Gen 1 and that tail makes it male haha).
@@JaybeePenaflor True, but as soon as you put pikachu in the PC, or wanted a Raichu; following pokemon was removed from the game. HeartGold and Soulsilver is what people referred to when they wanted following pokemon for the games following, because every pokemon could follow you.
27:25 Remember that Fire doesn't actually resist Ice in Gen I, so Charizard gets nuked by Ice moves, as seen. Also, mad props for actually keeping Pikachu the entire run. Most people I know dump it for Jolteon.
Which I'll never understand because you can teach Pikachu surf using Pokemon stadium. Surfing Pikachu is far more useful than regular Jolteon. Mainly because it can destroy some ground types using it.
I beat pokemon Y again the other day and noticed there is an "Official Kalos Region Guidebook" advertised in the page for the torchic. Seems they may have not had a third party do gen 6 like they did in some of the other later gens, could be an interesting one to do since you practically curb stomp the entire region anyway.
Oh! I own the X/Y guidebook and all the credit I can see on it says "The Pokemon Company International", so yeah looks like that one's not a third party guide!
I mean there’s always no exp share runs which make it admittedly annoying at times with level spikes but it’s better than a never ending victory parade
I think you're already catching onto this, but my favorite bits are the funny/interesting things in the guide. Since we can't read the guide ourselves, it definitely helps the video of you can mention as many funny things that are in the guide as possible.
I remember playing this game before learning english properly. couldn't find out how to get past that guy who teaches you how to catch pokemon so i endlessly wandered around till I accidentally discovered it. pikachu was strong enough to one shot brock with slam by that time
Was I the only one that caught a caterpie and evolved it to a butterfree so that I could beat Brock with psychic? As someone pointed out, it was actually confusion
I did the same. While Mankey's low kick and Nidoran's double kick were the usual popular options to defeat Brock, I've always preferred Butterfree. It both evolves and learns Confusion at level 10 which is amazing that early in the game. Butterfree also learns various status effect moves soon after which help with catching other Pokemon. Ash also had a Butterfree in the anime which is another reason why I always go with it during my Yellow version playthroughs. It's a really good early to mid-game Pokemon to have in your party.
I remember when pokemon Yellow came out (I'm old) and there was a time that all the red and blue guides had to focus on yellow or they just wouldn't sell. The anime held a lot of sway back then, and the hype about being able to play "Ash's" story was immense. There were so many yellow guides back then and a lot of them mentioned caterpie for Brock, given that butterfree learns confusion on evolving.
It's nice how you've adopted the terminologies of the deceased writer of that other guide. Looks like "type trump", "zig when they zag" , and "hammer away" are here to stay!
All these references from your other Nintended videos. I love them. They always bring a smille to my face. I have a really rough time mentally a the moment and you always get me to smile. Thank you :)
Yellow version till this day has been my all time favorite game. It reminds me of the Kanto episodes of the show on tv and it’s done so closely to the show. Pikachu was my favorite Pokémon ever, so to get him in the beginning was awesome. I always named my player Ash and Oak’s grandson Gary (cause of the show). I literally still have this game and the limited edition Yellow version Game Boy Color that goes with it. I loved that you can literally get all the starters in this game like in the anime. Plus fighting Jessie and James was fun. I’m 32 and from time to time i always go back and play it. Giving myself nostalgic feels.
It's from Playing FireRed versiom as intended. When read originally, the author who wrote that book said "hammer away at gym leader" at 4 of the 8 gyms, so the phrase was set up... Then PaPaSea realized that the author has died about two years ago from now, so PaPaSea kept the phrase as honor to him. Great!
Seeing the stats pages at the back made me realizes this guide is made by the same people who made the Red and Blue guide I read as a kid. "Choose wisely young grasshopper."
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT: I remember when I told my grandmother I wanted this book off the shelf, and surprised she said, "Really?" I said, "Yes, I'll read every page." She told me, "Show me you can read every page." I can't show her now, but playing Pokemon Go, with my sons and teaching them about different types and advantages and disadvantages, it really takes me me back to this 1st gen walkthrough I used to own.
Just an idea: if you run out of official guides, you should highlight community guides of various games. Remember those old text file guides? Yeah, those! Follow them and gage them on how well they help. Maybe even compare them to the official guides too.
I still remember trading my Pikachu to a friend's game so that he could give it a Thunderstone. Then when he traded it back to me as a Raichu I suddenly missed the novelty of it following me around. :(
I had already raised a Raichu when I played through Red version, and I liked Ash's Pikachu from the anime and Pikachus in general, so I just kept my little buddy and overleveled him as my main lol He was lvl 100 by the time I faced the Elite Four.
14:40 God, that is a super 90’s reference. Does it also suggest to name your monster “friends” Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Chandler, and Joey (but not Ross)

LOL hope I got the the lines right lol I am actually watching a episode of Friends as I write this.
Here is a fun design choise at 3:39. If you lose both battles, the game will be easier later on as Vaporeon is weak to your Pikachu. If you win both battles, you will have a harder time as Jolteon resists Pikachu's electric attacks. If you win the first battle but lose or pass on the second battle (neutral), the game will not change in difficulty as Flareon have no advantage over Pikachu and niether does Pikachu over Flareon.
"pikachu loses to gary" Yep that's about right. Yellow is a neat gimmick, but pikachu is reeeaaally weak at high levels. And even on a good type matchup like vaporeon, it's both evolved and one of the best tanks in the game. As the last fight showed, not even thunderbolt can carry pikachu hard enough for it.
Another funny guide. Denoting Oak to a mere doctor is one thing but Pokemon duel sounds like playing Yu-Gi-Oh while Pokemon combat sounds like there might be a war between these creatures.
I am in love with this series. I Sincerely hope you keep Hammering away the ne'er do wells of the evil teams and defeating the gym leaders in two shakes of a lamb's tail. But always keep in mind which type trumps which.
It's so wild (and awesome) to see you doing this guide, I probably read the thing to the point of memorization as a kid. And yeah, even back then I thought it was weird how they never told you the rival's team for Red and Blue xD Also, the crazy-high levels of snark, pop culture reference and irreverent humor were all over the place in gaming magazines and guides in the 90s. I never thought anything of it back then, but looking back, it's so weird to see X-Files and Psychic Friends Network mentioned in a Pokemon guide
Neat I remember my old elementary school had one of these old guides in the library and I think it talked about the first 3 games and the gamecube version a bit
@@defmore5099 Right? He called Mt. Moon "Dark Cave" every time, and even called Rock Tunnel "Dark Tunnel". Dude used TM14(Blizzard) on Articuno - it learns Blizzard at lvl 51 and you catch it at lvl 50!!! lmao
Oh look a new video from PaPaSea and it's not one of the annoying speculation videos everyone else is doing! Great job, keep it up bro I love your stuff!
This was a really fun/nostalgic watch. Granted I started with Crystal, I quickly collected the first gen and fell in love with Yellow for the anime similarities and, well, friggen Pikachu following me around. Eventually grabbed the guide for it off eBay and spent ages just reading over it and enjoying the art. Thanks for the hard work that went into this, appreciate ya my dude!
That's a legit storyline in RBY. The Channelers from Lavender Tower have all been possessed by ghosts. Only the one with the healing squares was able to stop the possession. That is, until the player defeats them in a Pokemon battle, of course! Also I think I read this strategy guide when I first player the game. I remember that Team Rocket typo. They were supposed to be unevolved, but it was no Weezing and Arbok
When I was a kid, I thought Fire type should be strong against Poison, because some of these Pokémon were gases (Gastly, Koffing) and gas is highly flammable . At least it had "some" sense.
I love the screenshots from the old guide book, I had this one and the Gold/Silver guide... Thanks for triggering my nostalgia and making me think of good times !!! ✌

The guy who made the guide most likely just used a Charizard for all the run, making it overleveled and this is why fire type attacks are so good agains Giovanni and Lorelei
Can you blame anyone for maining Charizard in Yellow? Game Freak actually acknowledged that it could fly this time.
well he would be alright against Lorelei, but against Giovanni he would die
Technically not since charizardnis part flying, thus being immune to earthquake but maybe he has rock coverage idk
Sounds like another person that loses to Charizards. Poor noob. Jk

"If you want to avoid a duel..."
What is this? Yu-Gi-Oh?
You know what time it is.
That one guy who made FRLG guide trying to add some variety in the very mundane guide: "Hammer away"
Papasea: "It's free real estate"
Another funny guide. Denoting Oak to a mere doctor is one thing but Pokemon duel sounds like playing Yu-Gi-Oh while Pokemon combat sounds like there might be a war between these creatures.
The guide had an X-Files reference lol. That's amusing.
I am in love with this series. I Sincerely hope you keep Hammering away the ne'er do wells of the evil teams and defeating the gym leaders in two shakes of a lamb's tail. But always keep in mind which type trumps which.
I love this series so much! Every episode is done so well and entertaining by you - thx for this!
It's so wild (and awesome) to see you doing this guide, I probably read the thing to the point of memorization as a kid. And yeah, even back then I thought it was weird how they never told you the rival's team for Red and Blue xD
Also, the crazy-high levels of snark, pop culture reference and irreverent humor were all over the place in gaming magazines and guides in the 90s. I never thought anything of it back then, but looking back, it's so weird to see X-Files and Psychic Friends Network mentioned in a Pokemon guide
Neat I remember my old elementary school had one of these old guides in the library and I think it talked about the first 3 games and the gamecube version a bit
I love that pokemon yellow is so close to the anime. I also liked that they updated every sprite and made it look way better than red and blue
I love how you implement the spelling from the other guides in your commentary
This was one of my favorite walk thrus ever.
"Most experts think this is just a lot of jurassic mumbo-jumbo."
And now I am suddenly imagining "What if pokemon could do redstone".
I actually had this guide when I was younger. I loved all the stickers of the sprites it came with. So cute
Mulder & Scully is an X-Files reference in case anyone missed it.
dont bother with the zoomers. he tried to get points with the older crowd by saying he started with red&blue (lie).
@@defmore5099
Right? He called Mt. Moon "Dark Cave" every time, and even called Rock Tunnel "Dark Tunnel". Dude used TM14(Blizzard) on Articuno - it learns Blizzard at lvl 51 and you catch it at lvl 50!!! lmao
What’s an X-files?
Word
@@hanburgundy4317 hearing him say he taught Articuno Blizzard because he had the TM for it was really painful
Oh look a new video from PaPaSea and it's not one of the annoying speculation videos everyone else is doing! Great job, keep it up bro I love your stuff!
I love the pokémon videos, but you've been teasing us with the Zelda one. I'm interested to see how those go
That was certainly an interesting guide. It's interesting to see how the guide-makers way of playing really influences how it's written
There's a Prima guide for Explorers of Sky, and my god that thing is huge (and also pretty damn accurate from what I can tell).
I love when you say Hammer Away as the reference to the Leaf Green episode
Someone find Ken Sugamori and give him his watercolors back
This was a really fun/nostalgic watch. Granted I started with Crystal, I quickly collected the first gen and fell in love with Yellow for the anime similarities and, well, friggen Pikachu following me around. Eventually grabbed the guide for it off eBay and spent ages just reading over it and enjoying the art. Thanks for the hard work that went into this, appreciate ya my dude!
HAD TO DROP EVERYTHING FOR A NEW NINTENDED
What a blast from the past! I had this Guide. Used it often back as a kid
Beating Pokemon yellow how Nintendo intended.
So just the anime then lol
That's a legit storyline in RBY. The Channelers from Lavender Tower have all been possessed by ghosts. Only the one with the healing squares was able to stop the possession. That is, until the player defeats them in a Pokemon battle, of course!
Also I think I read this strategy guide when I first player the game. I remember that Team Rocket typo. They were supposed to be unevolved, but it was no Weezing and Arbok
Thanks for doing yellow great content
Im so glad i kept this guide in near mint all these years later, i remember how often id read the pokedex page as a kid, great times
When I was a kid, I thought Fire type should be strong against Poison, because some of these Pokémon were gases (Gastly, Koffing) and gas is highly flammable . At least it had "some" sense.
I had the same reasoning 😅
Everything is weak to fire if you use enough of it. 😂😂😂
I like the hammer away meme enough to sub, keep hammering PaPa
Man, I cant wait until you do a "Hey You, Pickachu!" Playthrough
I wanted that, but never got it :(
That game was so lit.
I literally can't wait for the next one! I've been rewatching all your videos
this is so funny
also i love how you keep saying hammer away and stuff like that
I love the reference to X-Files with Mulder and Scully, totally didn't realize that the show was that old already....
Love the X-Files reference at 14:40
I love the screenshots from the old guide book, I had this one and the Gold/Silver guide... Thanks for triggering my nostalgia and making me think of good times !!! ✌
TWO SHAKES OF A LAMBS TAIL!
omfg my mind almost thought your pfp was a girl doing that weird lip thing
I still love that you say hammer away to honour that first guide
