    While it's cool having the Elite 4 all in one place. Drake being in that one part of Meteor Falls (which is especially cool because it's the one place in the game you can catch Bagon) made me realize how cool it would also be for the player to have to hunt down the Elite 4 and find where they are. They could be in especially difficult places to find, leading to a greater emphasis on exploration.

Whenever Crow lied, he was more than able to rationally think about Crow's ability, his nature, and his psychology; he knew what was feasible, and from there knew what wasn't true.

    Catching that level 40 Golbat in the beginning really helped you alot , he was still using a level 36 swampert halfway through the vid , MVP goes to that Golbat , and after you caught Rayquaza it was over, great video great hunch on Drake

      The almost instant catching of lvl 40 pokemon was a the most clutch part of the run. Especially with both of them running on multiplied speed, having a lvl 40, whether it listens or not, greatly reduces the amount of white outs, obstacles, and overall stress so that Ant could calmly focus on mapping the world.

    Ants strategy for this was extremely intelligent. Recognizing that because the order is messed up an effective strat is to catch whatever pokemon you can early from a diverse set of levels so that you can breeze through the gyms once you find them all was brilliant.
    That kind of situational awareness is something I think speedrunning really builds into someone. Knowing what strat to apply when and when to abandon a strat and try something else is a fundamental life skill in general.
    As the great Kenny Rogers put it, "You gotta' know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, and know when to run."

      @traceurs619 Рік тому +6

      Idk if it was catching ‘random’ Pokémon at different levels. He hit victory road which gives him his beloved crobat opportunity and he loves the Aron line because both Pokémon are either a tank or sweeper, so getting through the gyms was easy since they were already 40, only got the raltz for teleport to go around resetting in soft lock or whiting out, and got the goldeen strictly for waterfall when the game glitched so he couldn’t get it naturally. Luckily went through rayquaza’s path so spent a good chunk of time wasting great balls and got lucky enough😂 that rayquaza pretty much helped him sweep the rest of the gyms, the elite four, and the champion which brought him back up to pace when he wasted all that time prior. I guess the best strat is just having superior Pokémon knowledge so you know how to use the specific Pokémon you come across to your advantage and which ones to strictly choose for that reason.
