The Next Challenge is UP 🔴 ua-cam.com/video/8Pxw4O7OwA4/v-deo.html Also I know a lot of people LOVE Gen 5. Gen 5 is very well made, it's clear by just how many people love it! It's just not my thing, there's a lot about it I don't like, especially the pacing and experience system, but that's just my opinion, it's not any more important than yours. If you love the games, that's great! I'm just happy that you're into Pokemon. Next challenge is a really light hearted and fun one! Oh and to people wondering about the mid-battle save state in that one Bianca fight. That was crash protection. As you can see from all the consistent timers in that fight on the clock, I obviously never cheated. What happened was that I realised I hadn't saved in hours and that I should save, since I had an incident a few times while playing Pokemon White with Whattageek where the game froze during a fight. I thought it was better safe than sorry. If you think I cheated though, go to this video to see the full footage and proof that I didn't: ua-cam.com/video/UWVERhqie-o/v-deo.html
after this i swear to ARCEUS if u dont do beating pokemon ultra sun/moon with a single wishiwashi that cant go to its school form than ...ill cry my self to sleep..
Yeah, he made a lot of errors in this video to be sure. Modest nature, not using pickup, misunderstanding how Unaware works (it ignores stat changes in the enemy pokemon, not your own), constantly trashing the game (if he doesn't like Gen V, why did he play Gen V instead of IV like the commenters suggested?)... not his best video to be sure
@@matteopriotto5131 Sorry dude but he was actually right about his criticisms towards Gen V. The formula used for EXP in Gen V was just stupid as well as a turn off for people who loves griding.
Honestly I beat Black 2 (only the elite four) and I gave up--I beat Pkmn Sun EASILY but the cutscenes--so--pointless. But yeah Gen 5-7 has MASS amounts of random--plot-driven cut scenes. Also I had no idea that you fight Cheren, Bianca, and N 14 times total.
Yeah, as soon as I saw that Modest nature near the start of the video, I cringed. I wonder how much smoother this would've gone with even a neutral nature?
Absolutely, that's what I think it's there for as well since Gen 5 is heavily storydriven. I just personally thought it happened far too often for my tastes.
Seeing you lose to Ghetsis, heal your Pokémon in a instant, get teleported to the castle and to just have Ghetsis wait on you till you win made my day. That’s hilarious.
Totally wrong about the rival battles. Black and White were much more story and character driven games. N is your only true rival as he has wildly different values as you while still being a very capable trainer, Charon sees you as a rival but you don't feel the same about him, and Bianca is supposed to be weak. The reason you fight whenever you meet isn't because you're rivals, it's because that's how people communicate and interact in the Pokemon universe.
@@kristinep596 Was it really necessary to fight them lime 19 times over the course of the game though? That's a little excessive in my opinion. But, hey, it's my opinion.
Unaware makes You ignore THE OPPONENTS stat changes, you still care about what they do to you. Its just that they cant set up against you. Also why not restart after getting a -ATK nature if you want to give it ATK EV's?
Seriously, gen 1 is way more creative with its imaginative designs such as: - A ball - The same ball but upside down! - A nebulous pile of slime - A bigger nebulous pile of slime But no, it is gen 5 that is lazy and unimaginative... somehow...
Gen 5 is newer so its bad designs are looked at with a finer tooth comb. Starting to think the Gen 5 memeing on Vanillish/Garbodor/Klinklang broke Masuda and that's why we have the heavily flawed eras of Kalos/Alola/Galar.
I really don't like when people talk bad about pokemon black and white just because of it's focus on story. I mean I know a lot of people just skip all the dialogue in the first place, but bw has the best writing in the series by far, and no one ever talks about because garbodor exists.
@@matteopriotto5131 yes, and trubbish/garbodor have a much better design than grimer/muk do trash bags with tools, cannons, etc taken out of the trash vs a pile of grime that evolves into a bigger pile of grime
I'm from the group that actually likes the designs of the 'bad' Pokemon in Black and White. Vanillish isn't my favourite Ice Type, but I still like it.
*While waiting the protag to return to fight Ghetsis* Ghetsis: So are we just gonna wait like this till he return? Alder: Yeah man. That's what is written in the script, let's take a break a few moments before he came back. Cheren: Here you all. A bottles of Fresh Water Ghetsis, Alder and N: Thanks Man. Cheren: Let's talk and relax while we wait for his return after this.
"Black/White are astonishing slow games" I think training a Woobufett had made him insane, i mean realy? Considering you just did Emerald and Platinum, that are slower than that
Gen V battles are the fastest in the series, and the slow xp comes from the reworked formula meaning you gain less xp from killing lower level mons this stops you from getting overleveled and keeps the game more difficult. Edit: This is getting more attention than anticipated. I wanted to add despite my differing views on gen V I still loved the video! It was super entertaining and one I haven't seen before. I can't wait for the next one
I always forget how much people seem to trash on Gen 5, like all the time. Although, most of the issues are all problems that have been seen across most generations. It just seems very odd.
You're really cool and have an awesome YT name. I totally agree with your comment btw, I actually really like gen 5, it's a generally solid region and game that produced some of my favorite Pokemon.
Realm Of Unknown I used to dislike gen 5 mainly just cause my friend said he didn’t like it so I was like yah gen 5 sucks but recently I watched a play through and then played it my self and I have to say black and white are tied with platinum for my favorite games
Gen 5 is probably one of the best generations. Gen 5 is definitely my favorite though. I feel like people dont like the games because of the anime and because they were the next game after platnuim and hgss.
Wait what ? "Gen 5 has terrible xp gain ?" ... With the Audinos in gen 5 popping in like 85% of the roads this game is literally the easiest to xp of all the pokemon games ever done what are people talking about ... xD
I actually enjoy the dialogue in the newer Pokémon games. It makes me feel like I can actually have an adventure. It takes longer, so I feel like I'm more connected with the story. I personally enjoyed all the added dialogue. I don't mash the A button like most people, so I take my time with games to figure out the story and plot as I play.
Bruh he made sooo many mistakes in this video, using negative attack nature pokemon, not using one of the best exp sources (audino) to level up, and just so much whining too. Like, okay, you fight your rivals a bit? They're your friends though? Wouldn't you want to do that all the time if you had pokemon? A cool challenge but tbh he made it harder to watch.
@@sickeny 1 of the most complained about things is lack of battles Yeah gen 1 and 2 barely had any. Why? They were extremely small games with barely a story. Gen 3 had no excuse tho it was just shit. But bw If you don't skip through the game you wouldn't notice it that much I love how he hated on a game he forced to be like that 😂😂
I feel like you pit a lot of unnecessary hate on gen 5. You hated on the rival battles which are realistic since you're painted as friends and would want to battle a lot. Next is the cutscenes, it's a story driven game. It actually has a good story and is pretty entertaining. The slow animations are meant to be cinematic and can be turned off if you don't like them. The exp can easily be boosted by battling Audino which you clearly didn't do what with all the complaining. And finally, the pokemon designs, every generation has bad pokemon designs. Gen 1 has a pokemon that is literally just a fetus and a pokemon that us just a pile of sludge with eyes and geodude is just a rock. Gen 2 has a flower with eyes, gen 3 has a pile of lava with eyes etc. My point being that gen 5 got way too much hate in this video and got compared to the rest of the sreies which it was trying to distinguish itself from. I personally like gen 5 and what it brought to the table and how it treated its characters, but some people just can't see that. Rant over. Edit: for gen 3 I'll just change my example to seedot which is just an acorn with eyes. I forgot slugma was gen 2.
I think the reason he hated on the designs so much is because of nostalgia and because the amount of pokemon. No one complains about the first four gens because that's what everyone started with, and gen 5 doesnt have that many players that started with it. Plus it added the most pokemon which means that there are more to like/dislike. But I completely agree with you. Too much hate from him. It completely took me out of the video. I feel like that's a problem with some of his videos.
Gen 5 has literal car keys, a sword, garbage bag, musharna the fetus, tge sarcophahus, literal ice cream cone, gears, literal polar bear, etc. The Audino thing is kinda weird because he's a casual who happens to do challenges, not very experienced with the newer gens. I'd give Gen 1 some slack since it was the first in the series and they didn't really have any clue they were doing. Although I will agree that the games do have at least a few shitty designs per gen.
Bw was why i stopped playing pokemon for years. Had been playing since RBY and BW was the most disappointing by far. XY now takes this spot, but BW is a close 2nd
I think out of all your challenge videos this is the one I enjoyed the least. I did start out with gen 5 full disclosure but that's not my main issue. I don't really care what you think about the games, however when so much of the script is about why you don't like the game it takes the focus away from what I and most people watch these videos for. The comedy, seeing how you did it and the saddest part for me the sincerity you bring to these videos. In the wobbuffet video it was obviously a difficult and really Really tedious challenge. But I could tell that you were genuinely really happy about these videos success and for your fans. I didn't really feel that in this video. That's not to say that you randomly don't like your fans anymore. It's just the difference between seeing you playing something you like instead of dislike. So the next time you torture yourself viea pokemon, make sure it's a game you like.
I understand that and I think it's a solid criticism. It's just that you guys kept asking for Gen 5 and I want to give you guys the challenges that you ask for. I could have lied and pretended like I love Gen 5 just to appease the people who like it, but I don't like to do it. My honest opinion is that I think Gen 5 is very well made, but isn't the kind of Pokemon game that I enjoy the most. I have a lot of criticisms of it.
I spent the whole video wondering when you would realize how unaware actually works, but you didn't Unaware ignores the stat changes only on your opponents, so any stat changes that happen to your pokemon are still valid
This is my first time rewatching this video, and the sheer panic in Whatageek''s voice at 6:47 made me lose it. Your randomizer series together are hilarious!
It's mostly just him getting mad that he had to battle a bunch I get the frustration of having to wait But if you don't force the game to be like this It's completely different lmao
I'm not trolling, it's honestly pretty slow when doing this style of challenge, mostly due to it's unique experience system. It's not as bad for casual playthroughs, but for a single pokemon challenge it's brutally slow.
@@MahDryBread Well all I'm saying is that you're treating as general critisism of the game, when really its only an issue for when you're doing challenges like this.
Just saying for Pokemon Pronounced wrong (These are correct pronunciations just for help): Arr-Key-Ops Her-Dee-Err Whirl-uhh-peed (like centipede) Lea-van-eee Boo-Fah-Launt Just trying to help, not complaining
this man just called a feathered dragon literally glowing with elemental energy with a weird biomechanical engine looking thing on its tail an "uncreative legendary", when most of the legendaries are literally just some random ass animal with a different colour, he also says this while using a pokemon that is some random fat beaver not to mention how a massive amount of pokemon in general are just random animals with some random colour change, not just the legendaries
This is Pokemon not digimon adding a jet engine to it doesn't make it more creative it just makes it a busier design that's literally just a regular feathered dragon standing upright
@@PKMN649 yeah, but it's more creative then "literally just a dog", "literally just a cat", or hey, even "literally just a turtle" it's funny how you insult Digimon when most of their designs are creative while a lot of Pokemon are just "animal but colour wrong" plus, it's a dragon, not a rat or a turtle, that alone makes it more creative plus, if you wanna say adding a jet engine doesnt make it creative, what about a perfectly normal bird with a tiny ice shard on its head and nothing else? is that somehow more creative to you?
@Lord Venom WRONG!!!! My Favorite Generation is Gen 4, 2nd Fav is Gen 3!!!! SOO Ur Causing Drama And VERY UNNECESSARY Arguments!!! And Garbodor and Semisage Was Voted The WORST Pokemon(aka Gen 5) in a poll a few years ago!! So Bite Me You Gen 1-4 n Gen 6-7 Hating Imbesile
@Lord Venom Go Watch Muk vs Garbodor in AuraGuardians Video! After that, Go Fuck Off With All of Your Negative Bullshit, You Hypocritical Bastard of a Pokemon Fan!!
highkey hate it when people interrupt a video to complain, like, you can have feelings and they're valid, absolutely, but fucking chill. really dampens the mood and brings down the whole experience
Originally I was having fun with the video, finding it funny that Bidoof was being Bidoof because, look at that thing, it is so hilarious just to look at. But...this practically got insufferable towards the end. This changed from "How much trouble is Bidoof going to be?" to "How much can I utterly trash B/W?" Now the point about the rival battles I can certainly accept because they are far too many, no doubt. But everything about it being so slow was, ironically, dragging the video to a grinding halt with nothing but complaining. You keep saying how slow the game is, and I'm just like "Have you even played D/P?" That game was far worse with its animations. Also, excuse B/W that it actually tried to have a narrative other than "Bag Guy shows up, get rid of them and be champion." Then there was the pronunciations. Normally I give them a pass, but when "Archeops" showed up, I was like "You didn't even try." Then in like every other section, it was nothing but complaining about the pokemon designs. I didn't mind the Youngster Joey stuff, it actually got kind of funny after a while, but this I was actively going "Oh god, shut up." I just...This was not a fun watch is what I will say. I enjoyed the last ones, I truly did. This one was painful though. Just because it got painful for you at times doesn't mean the audience should experience that pain too.
I’ll be honest, it really took away from the video too. Gen 5 already gets way too much hate for literally no reason. People talk about how Gen 5 has so many problems, yet overlook problems with other generations, especially Gen 4. I’ve watched the other challenge videos, and it’s only really this one where it’s an issue. I’ll obviously keep watching these videos, but I didn’t get much enjoyment out of this one honestly
Yikes, did 5th gen hurt you? there's an alarming amount of negativity, regardless, great run, you're crazy for continuously doing these. at least the next challenge should be pretty chill since Jinx is a beast.
The problem is that BW aren't games meant to be played for challenge series. It's the most story-driven Pokemon game ever made, so naturally making this video would've been far more painful than the others.
I absolutely ADORE gen 5, but in terms of playing through it, it's definitely hard to play multiple times. The very frequent rival battles and the painful experience makes it.. a bit of a test of patience, and there's a lot of text to click through particularly in the beginning. But it will always have a special place in my heart :) (And the music really do be popping off, no one can deny that)
He said to compliment someone in the comments, and you’re the lucky winner P: I like your icon! And agree with your taste in pokemon music B) its a bop
you're not crazy, you're right. They're the first mainseries games with good credits, an actually important story, and music buildup They also have the most creative pokemon, better than a plain seal with literally nothing else to it
You really think gen 5 has the laziest pokemon designs? How about the pile of sludge who evolves into a bigger pile of sludge, or pink goo, or Pokeball who evolves into Pokeball with the colors swapped, or seal that evolves into bigger seal, or circle ghost, or pink cat, or 6 eggs, or bird, or rat, or bird with a leek, at least the "bad" designs in gen 5 had effort put into them
Dude are you smoking crack? Gem 1 gets a pass because it was the first. gen 5 is the worst and you try to attack the most popular one? Who is the real gen- whiners Gen 5 is the official worst game get over it lol and do some research
5:00 I was hoping he would use protect against the watchdog for the first retaliate, since the second one would’ve done half damage, because another turn would’ve past. You get protect from the professor after seeing 60 Pokémon. So he could get it by this point in the game.
the only problem with this run is that since you chose Bidoof, it's pretty obvious that this will end with a win Arceus is but a mere figurehead for Bidoof, the true omnipotent one.
Unaware ignores the OPPONENTS STAT changes. Im posting this halfway threw the video, as you have repeatedly made that mistake. (that means sand attack still affects your accuracy) (Metal sound would also affect you)
Gen 5 had so many rival battles because it was supposed to feel like the player, Cheren and Bianca were taking the journey together so they constantly run into each other and compare via battling. Whether that works for you or is just annoying varies by the person. Frankly I'm just happy for the experience it gives.
your suffering is enjoyable but honestly, those rants are so biased they're annoying i mean, with the designs i can understand, to each their own, but bw being slower than gen 3 AND gen 4? complaining about dialogue and story progression in a story focused Pokemon game? (though this one is a bit understandable since you're not playing casually, but doing a challenge) and most importantly, you completely ignored the audinos lmfao
Some Sarcastic Mage yea, this guy in general is pretty hit or miss, he’s either mildly entertaining or obnoxiously whining. I wish other people would do challenges like this as frequently
Sukiida i agree! to each their own about pokemon design but complaining about cutscenes and character development in a story driven pokemon game LMFAO its not the games fault you arent playing casually. plus hearing people ramble on and on hatefully on videos that have nothing to do with the topic is so insanely annoying and just sounds bitchy. if you wanted to make a rant about gen 5 then please make a seperate video, dont shove it in a video like this
Gonna leave this here, even if this is an older video: Gen 5's designs get a lot of hate, but I have to laugh that a lot of people that rip on Gen 5's designs also praise Gen 1's. You didn't here, so I'm not trying to tear into you with this MDB, simply laughing... because Gen 5's designs were meant to mirror Gen 1 in many ways. With some pokemon there is almost a 1-1 comparison on why they are designed as they are - Namely the Klinklang line and Garbodor line mirroring Magneton and Muk, or Amoongus mirroring Electrode. Gen 5 starts you out with no other options but the new stuff, because it was Gamefreak's attempt to reset everything for a bit. You get 150 pokemon in the Unova dex. That's it until the post game. Some designs flopped because of this (Swoobat is god awful), and some are iffy at best (I like Cryogonal, but I am under no illusions that it isn't a great design). But we also got pokemon like Zoroark, Excadrill, Hydreigon, Haxorus, Golurk, etc. There are some REALLY cool pokemon in Gen 5, but people point at Vanilluxe (Which was designed by an American. ... yeah, 1 pokemon was designed by an American. Not the bald eagle, but the ice cream with a face was the one that was) and Garbodor, but gloss past because it doesn't fit their narrative.
Gen 1 gets a lot more praise because during the time that it was released, it had been considered something phenomenal (because of course that was based off that era’s standards) but since (as u have said) Gen 5’s pokémon designs were based off Gen 1, it pretty much makes it basic... since Gen 1, by today’s standard, isn’t that groundbreaking design-wise... so basing a NEWER generation on smth that is considered to be basic by modern standards, isn’t really the best thing to do, again design-wise
Guillem Moreno Yeah, but I find it strange how they do things the English way given their proximity to the US. I mean, around 3/4 of Canadians live within 100 miles from the border.
Devil's Advocate We’ve been the cultural center of the world for almost a century, and we had ~160 years of (political and geographical) separation before that. Also, America is a melting pot of people whose native languages have transformed our lexicon. It’d be a miracle if we still used the English way given these circumstances.
Gen 5 showed me some of my favourite Pokémon (Leavanny, Braviary, Gigalith being the ones that come to mind first) and two of my favourite gym leaders so it'll probably always stay as my favourite generation lol
I personally liked Gen 5. The Vanillite line was very creative. It's not ACTUALLY ice cream, it's evolved to resemble ice cream because of it's habitat. That's very realistic for Pokémon if you think about it.
Beartic looks fine in 2D, but god does his 3D model look terrible, though at least he's not anywhere near as poor off as Quilava or any of the other fire Pokemon that don't always have their fire on. Permanent 3D only made this franchise look worse.
Okay I really don't appreciate how hard you are on generation five, clearly just because you don't have any nostalgia for it or something like that. Seems like you went into it with a negative mindset that gen 5 sucks. So many cool and competitive Pokemon come from gen5 and version 2 has an awesome story. Yikes my guy.
No he’s not wrong. Gen 5 was insanely fun but it did have extremely lazy Pokémon. It was a joke when it came out. Bud. People hated pn Cryoganol, Chandelier, Musharna, etc. but it’s a lot better now. He’s not the only person that roasts gen 5. He’s only one in the majority. Hope you realize gen 5 is the most hated gen. I don’t know why. I think people are starting to hate Alola most. Personally I love gen 5. It’s probably my third favorite.
Devil's Advocate It’s sad people hate on gen 5, but can’t recognize the lamer pokemon in other gens. Garbodor > Muk Vanilluxe > glalie Musharna was kinda lame, but still! I could list loads of crappy gen 1-4 pokemon that gen 5 has easily beat. Crazy, the amount of hate the greatest Pokémon generation gets :)
@Lord Venom Gastly is Gen 1. Chandelure is Gen 5. Gen 1 was the rough period where things were a bit more of "throw this idea at a wall and see if it sticks" and less "we're starting to run out of ideas." People dunk on gen 1 designs, more so the japanese designs in green that have a lot of pokemon that look like straight trash. Let's not forget the literal garbage bag pokemon from gen 5, or the key ring pokemon, or gear pokemon, or sword pokemon, or ice cream cone pokemon, or musharna who's a literal pink blob, or the sarcophagus pokemon, the literal snowflake, the snotty nosed polar bear, etc. Gen 5 is polarizing for a reason. The desgins were pretty love or hate, most people have come to the consensus that Team Plasma is kinda dumb, and the anime adaptation sucking pretty hard definitely didn't help things. But that's my opinion on things and you have yours. We're opposed on this subject and that's fine. I can respect it.
It marked the least popular the series has ever been. Which is why they brought back th Kanto starters in Kalos, because Unova left a very bitter taste in everyone's mouth. Also why in Black/Whte 2 they brought back the extended National DeX. Gen 5 was decent at best, and terrible at its worst.
Ironically I thought BW was way better than BW2. The second ones were just....missing something that the first ones had. But I suppose mechanics wise it did make some improvements.
I love your content MDB and you seem like a great guy but it hurts to hear you insult my favourite dragons. Also, just a thought, wouldn't it be faster to use save states when doing sessions that are basically slow grinds of just waiting on RNG. You're already using a ROM to get the starter so why not, right?
The rival battles in Black & White never bothered me too much because the idea was that it's meant to be you and your childhood friends on the adventure together, growing together, and testing eachothers progress. I feel that it adds a small sense of camaraderie that the games before it didn't have, as the previous rivals up to then had either been hostile towards you, or barely contributed anything at all. N, however, I could do without.
I get N is the "testing your true strength" rival but him on top of two others, i think we should've fought him less. Fighting him should've been saved for bigger story points
@@pinkypride8615 And his team isn't even as hard as Cheren's, because he only has Pokemon from the area you're in, and usually only like 3 of them. Big fail as a "Rival".
@@godqueensadie i get he's all "anti pokeball" and would just have the pokemon around the area, but that seems all the more reason to save him for moments like the reshiram/zekrom fight
I watch your videos as I grind in my own games. Your idiotic optimism is infectious. Thank you for keeping me going on my 60th try for the 1/40 item drop
I love your videos and admire all the hard work you`re doing. Everyone is entitiled to their own opinions, but I think you`re to harsh on Reshiram and Zekrom, I`m not a huge fan of the Gen 5 designs either, a lot of dumb designs there IMHO. But Zekrom, and especially Reshiram have awsome designs. But hey, it`s your opinion versus mine. Keep up the fantastic work man!
Too slow to play....that's Gen 4, not 5. Gen 7 is quite slow as well, but for other reasons. Half of the complaining is just unfair towards these games though. Sure, these games are unfriendly towards grinding to high level, but 99% of the players aren't even doing a 1 member team. xD
Yeah and when I played White for the first time I enjoyed the challenge of getting my mons grinded up to beating the elite 4 and when I got to catch Zekrom it felt so good especially with that cutscene
Imagine establishing a giant evil group to catch a legendary Electric Dragon mon. Thinking you will rule the world but get kicked ass by a Bidoof - catchable at starting routes 🤣
I think U didn't get how unaware works. If a Pokémon with this Ability uses a damaging move or is targeted by a damaging move, the other Pokémon's stat stages are ignored during damage and accuracy calculation. Specifically, when a Pokémon with this Ability uses a damaging move, the evasion stat stages of the targets are ignored during accuracy calculation, and the Defense and Special Defense stat stages of the targets are ignored during damage calculation; when a Pokémon with this Ability is targeted by a damaging move, the accuracy stat stages of the attacking Pokémon are ignored during accuracy calculation, and the Attack and Special Attack stat stages of the attacking Pokémon are ignored during damage calculation. Unaware will not prevent the moves Gyro Ball, Electro Ball, Stored Power, Punishment, and Power Trip from factoring in the stat changes that determine their power. This Ability has no effect on a Pokémon hurting itself in confusion. If they use a stat altering move on U, it still works
It's a PWG reference, the joke is that everyone always kicks out of the falcon arrow, but on commentary they all yell that no one kicks out of it as a joke
Dude, I love you, but it hurts to hear so many insults thrown at my 2nd favorite generation 😂 (Maybe that's because I love story-driven games with interesting characters and I learned to appreciate Gen 5 designs over time, but still, hurts)
Say something nice about someone in the comments he said. Well then I have to admit, I think that loving Gen 5 is wise and you have good taste. While I think some of the Pokemon from it are terrible Pokemon such as Chandelure and Galvantula are ones I do have a high level of fondness for as with my first playthrough my Galvantula handled the entire league for me.
Hey! MDB i love you channel and your creative challenges, about the exp in gen 5, i think that's actually a good thing, because it "forces" you to beat the game with strategies instead of just overleveling 'till you are 20 levels over the 8th gym, yeah, its a pain for challenges like this, but the games are not supposed to be played like that, so it adds more difficulty to the challenges :D
@@MahDryBread depends of what pokemon do you use, some pokes can sweep almost anything, i recently beat pokemon white 2 with a team of only 3, Emboar, Swanna and Ferrothorn and 2 HM slaves, whatever one of them can't beat, the other two could. i only added more members to the team for the pokemon league, but yeah, gen 5 exp system is a real pain for One pokemon challenges, that's why i really admire your dedication/stubborness keep going MDB :D
The Next Challenge is UP 🔴 ua-cam.com/video/8Pxw4O7OwA4/v-deo.html
Also I know a lot of people LOVE Gen 5. Gen 5 is very well made, it's clear by just how many people love it! It's just not my thing, there's a lot about it I don't like, especially the pacing and experience system, but that's just my opinion, it's not any more important than yours. If you love the games, that's great! I'm just happy that you're into Pokemon. Next challenge is a really light hearted and fun one!
Oh and to people wondering about the mid-battle save state in that one Bianca fight. That was crash protection. As you can see from all the consistent timers in that fight on the clock, I obviously never cheated.
What happened was that I realised I hadn't saved in hours and that I should save, since I had an incident a few times while playing Pokemon White with Whattageek where the game froze during a fight. I thought it was better safe than sorry. If you think I cheated though, go to this video to see the full footage and proof that I didn't: ua-cam.com/video/UWVERhqie-o/v-deo.html
Looks amazing
All your videos are amazing
This is basically the rusty challenge
after this i swear to ARCEUS if u dont do beating pokemon ultra sun/moon with a single wishiwashi that cant go to its school form than ...ill cry my self to sleep..
You should do biberel in b/w2
"But Bidoof, they outnumber you 5 to 1!"
"Then it may be a fair fight."

Yeah, he made a lot of errors in this video to be sure. Modest nature, not using pickup, misunderstanding how Unaware works (it ignores stat changes in the enemy pokemon, not your own), constantly trashing the game (if he doesn't like Gen V, why did he play Gen V instead of IV like the commenters suggested?)... not his best video to be sure
@@exantiuse497 yeah, the "insults" to the game were just stupid and weak.

@@matteopriotto5131 Sorry dude but he was actually right about his criticisms towards Gen V. The formula used for EXP in Gen V was just stupid as well as a turn off for people who loves griding.

gen 7: sweats nervously
Honestly I beat Black 2 (only the elite four) and I gave up--I beat Pkmn Sun EASILY but the cutscenes--so--pointless. But yeah Gen 5-7 has MASS amounts of random--plot-driven cut scenes. Also I had no idea that you fight Cheren, Bianca, and N 14 times total.

A Modest nature for a pokemon relying on physical moves... Well, that certainly made the challenge 10% harder
lmao this guy is so painfully casual with pokemon, makes the videos more enjoyable imo
I mean -10% of 45 base attack is only so much lol
Thank you for your opinion and have a goood days

Yeah, as soon as I saw that Modest nature near the start of the video, I cringed. I wonder how much smoother this would've gone with even a neutral nature?

Totally wrong about the rival battles. Black and White were much more story and character driven games. N is your only true rival as he has wildly different values as you while still being a very capable trainer, Charon sees you as a rival but you don't feel the same about him, and Bianca is supposed to be weak. The reason you fight whenever you meet isn't because you're rivals, it's because that's how people communicate and interact in the Pokemon universe.
Everythingistheworst i completely agree with you

Seriously, gen 1 is way more creative with its imaginative designs such as:
- A ball
- The same ball but upside down!
- A nebulous pile of slime
- A bigger nebulous pile of slime
But no, it is gen 5 that is lazy and unimaginative... somehow...
@@Dragonatrix Some eggs.. that turn into a palm tree for some reason.

Huh.
Gen 5 is newer so its bad designs are looked at with a finer tooth comb.
Starting to think the Gen 5 memeing on Vanillish/Garbodor/Klinklang broke Masuda and that's why we have the heavily flawed eras of Kalos/Alola/Galar.
I really don't like when people talk bad about pokemon black and white just because of it's focus on story. I mean I know a lot of people just skip all the dialogue in the first place, but bw has the best writing in the series by far, and no one ever talks about because garbodor exists.

"Black/White are astonishing slow games" I think training a Woobufett had made him insane, i mean realy? Considering you just did Emerald and Platinum, that are slower than that

Grandmaster Sluggy Oh yes they are, the battle animations in this games take forever, even if the menus are faster than gen 4
@@renyuuzu You can disable battle animations...
Grandmaster Sluggy Yes, but that makes the battles look boring, and every game becomes way faster once you do that even Platinum.

JACOB USED BIDE!
Gen V battles are the fastest in the series, and the slow xp comes from the reworked formula meaning you gain less xp from killing lower level mons this stops you from getting overleveled and keeps the game more difficult.
Edit: This is getting more attention than anticipated. I wanted to add despite my differing views on gen V I still loved the video! It was super entertaining and one I haven't seen before. I can't wait for the next one

I always forget how much people seem to trash on Gen 5, like all the time. Although, most of the issues are all problems that have been seen across most generations.
It just seems very odd.
You're really cool and have an awesome YT name. I totally agree with your comment btw, I actually really like gen 5, it's a generally solid region and game that produced some of my favorite Pokemon.
Realm Of Unknown I used to dislike gen 5 mainly just cause my friend said he didn’t like it so I was like yah gen 5 sucks but recently I watched a play through and then played it my self and I have to say black and white are tied with platinum for my favorite games
No, YOU'RE breathtaking!
Gen 5 is probably one of the best generations. Gen 5 is definitely my favorite though. I feel like people dont like the games because of the anime and because they were the next game after platnuim and hgss.
Wyd gen 5 is shit you guys are the people who like something just because everybody hates it (for good reason)
Wait what ? "Gen 5 has terrible xp gain ?" ... With the Audinos in gen 5 popping in like 85% of the roads this game is literally the easiest to xp of all the pokemon games ever done what are people talking about ... xD
An xp grinding gimmick doesn't make the general xp gain faster. Also the fact that audino xp gain is so good is terrible for the opposite reason.
Ghdfshhs Yes it does makes it faster, and yes evertything that makes grinding faster is indeed, a good idea.

I actually enjoy the dialogue in the newer Pokémon games. It makes me feel like I can actually have an adventure. It takes longer, so I feel like I'm more connected with the story. I personally enjoyed all the added dialogue. I don't mash the A button like most people, so I take my time with games to figure out the story and plot as I play.
You deserve the like like he said 😄 plus I agree I like story!!!
19:11 ARCHEPOS?!? Come on, you are not even trying

Bruh he made sooo many mistakes in this video, using negative attack nature pokemon, not using one of the best exp sources (audino) to level up, and just so much whining too.
Like, okay, you fight your rivals a bit? They're your friends though? Wouldn't you want to do that all the time if you had pokemon?
A cool challenge but tbh he made it harder to watch.
Yeah he incorrectly pronounces a bunch of pokemon
Corracosta? Like come man
@@sickeny 1 of the most complained about things is lack of battles
Yeah gen 1 and 2 barely had any. Why? They were extremely small games with barely a story.
Gen 3 had no excuse tho it was just shit.
But bw
If you don't skip through the game you wouldn't notice it that much
I love how he hated on a game he forced to be like that 😂😂
I feel like you pit a lot of unnecessary hate on gen 5.
You hated on the rival battles which are realistic since you're painted as friends and would want to battle a lot.
Next is the cutscenes, it's a story driven game. It actually has a good story and is pretty entertaining.
The slow animations are meant to be cinematic and can be turned off if you don't like them. The exp can easily be boosted by battling Audino which you clearly didn't do what with all the complaining.
And finally, the pokemon designs, every generation has bad pokemon designs. Gen 1 has a pokemon that is literally just a fetus and a pokemon that us just a pile of sludge with eyes and geodude is just a rock. Gen 2 has a flower with eyes, gen 3 has a pile of lava with eyes etc.
My point being that gen 5 got way too much hate in this video and got compared to the rest of the sreies which it was trying to distinguish itself from.
I personally like gen 5 and what it brought to the table and how it treated its characters, but some people just can't see that.
Rant over.
Edit: for gen 3 I'll just change my example to seedot which is just an acorn with eyes. I forgot slugma was gen 2.
Ancientgamer246 thank you for your rant good sir
But yeah Gen 5 gets so much unreasonable hate
I think the reason he hated on the designs so much is because of nostalgia and because the amount of pokemon. No one complains about the first four gens because that's what everyone started with, and gen 5 doesnt have that many players that started with it. Plus it added the most pokemon which means that there are more to like/dislike.
But I completely agree with you. Too much hate from him. It completely took me out of the video. I feel like that's a problem with some of his videos.
@Owen Wieseler oh yeah.
You right. Slugma was always a weird one for me to remember
Gen 5 has literal car keys, a sword, garbage bag, musharna the fetus, tge sarcophahus, literal ice cream cone, gears, literal polar bear, etc.
The Audino thing is kinda weird because he's a casual who happens to do challenges, not very experienced with the newer gens.
I'd give Gen 1 some slack since it was the first in the series and they didn't really have any clue they were doing. Although I will agree that the games do have at least a few shitty designs per gen.

I think out of all your challenge videos this is the one I enjoyed the least. I did start out with gen 5 full disclosure but that's not my main issue. I don't really care what you think about the games, however when so much of the script is about why you don't like the game it takes the focus away from what I and most people watch these videos for. The comedy, seeing how you did it and the saddest part for me the sincerity you bring to these videos. In the wobbuffet video it was obviously a difficult and really Really tedious challenge. But I could tell that you were genuinely really happy about these videos success and for your fans. I didn't really feel that in this video. That's not to say that you randomly don't like your fans anymore. It's just the difference between seeing you playing something you like instead of dislike. So the next time you torture yourself viea pokemon, make sure it's a game you like.
No, YOU'RE breathtaking!
I feel the exact same way. Also you have the best taste in Pokemon
have a nice day
I understand that and I think it's a solid criticism. It's just that you guys kept asking for Gen 5 and I want to give you guys the challenges that you ask for. I could have lied and pretended like I love Gen 5 just to appease the people who like it, but I don't like to do it. My honest opinion is that I think Gen 5 is very well made, but isn't the kind of Pokemon game that I enjoy the most. I have a lot of criticisms of it.
I totally agree, i was really waiting for this video so yeah, a little dispoiting
Bruh wtf do you mean by slow animations? The battles in Gen 5 are lightning fast, especially compared to Gen 1, 2 and 4 ROFLLLLLLLLLLL

highkey hate it when people interrupt a video to complain, like, you can have feelings and they're valid, absolutely, but fucking chill. really dampens the mood and brings down the whole experience
Originally I was having fun with the video, finding it funny that Bidoof was being Bidoof because, look at that thing, it is so hilarious just to look at.
But...this practically got insufferable towards the end. This changed from "How much trouble is Bidoof going to be?" to "How much can I utterly trash B/W?" Now the point about the rival battles I can certainly accept because they are far too many, no doubt.
But everything about it being so slow was, ironically, dragging the video to a grinding halt with nothing but complaining. You keep saying how slow the game is, and I'm just like "Have you even played D/P?" That game was far worse with its animations. Also, excuse B/W that it actually tried to have a narrative other than "Bag Guy shows up, get rid of them and be champion." Then there was the pronunciations. Normally I give them a pass, but when "Archeops" showed up, I was like "You didn't even try." Then in like every other section, it was nothing but complaining about the pokemon designs. I didn't mind the Youngster Joey stuff, it actually got kind of funny after a while, but this I was actively going "Oh god, shut up."
I just...This was not a fun watch is what I will say. I enjoyed the last ones, I truly did. This one was painful though. Just because it got painful for you at times doesn't mean the audience should experience that pain too.

I’ll be honest, it really took away from the video too. Gen 5 already gets way too much hate for literally no reason. People talk about how Gen 5 has so many problems, yet overlook problems with other generations, especially Gen 4. I’ve watched the other challenge videos, and it’s only really this one where it’s an issue. I’ll obviously keep watching these videos, but I didn’t get much enjoyment out of this one honestly

really? did not realize lol, gonna go delete my comment
Omg THANK YOU LOL I was like, WHY MODEST. WHY.
the only problem with this run is that since you chose Bidoof, it's pretty obvious that this will end with a win
Arceus is but a mere figurehead for Bidoof, the true omnipotent one.
You are a wonderfull person.
All hail the might Bidoof! :P
Unaware ignores the OPPONENTS STAT changes. Im posting this halfway threw the video, as you have repeatedly made that mistake. (that means sand attack still affects your accuracy) (Metal sound would also affect you)
Good catch! You're very smart ^^
You have a beautiful profile picture
No, YOU'RE breathtaking!
You might want to go check what it does in gen 5
@@budzergo I have, it doesn't say that the ability has changed since it was put in
Gen 5 had so many rival battles because it was supposed to feel like the player, Cheren and Bianca were taking the journey together so they constantly run into each other and compare via battling. Whether that works for you or is just annoying varies by the person.
Frankly I'm just happy for the experience it gives.
your suffering is enjoyable but honestly, those rants are so biased they're annoying
i mean, with the designs i can understand, to each their own, but bw being slower than gen 3 AND gen 4? complaining about dialogue and story progression in a story focused Pokemon game? (though this one is a bit understandable since you're not playing casually, but doing a challenge) and most importantly, you completely ignored the audinos lmfao
Some Sarcastic Mage yea, this guy in general is pretty hit or miss, he’s either mildly entertaining or obnoxiously whining. I wish other people would do challenges like this as frequently
Honestly gotta agree :(
It especially hurts when the gen he shit talks is your favourite.
Yea, It's definitely the a drawback
to these challenges, the massive amount of complaining.
Sukiida i agree! to each their own about pokemon design but complaining about cutscenes and character development in a story driven pokemon game LMFAO its not the games fault you arent playing casually. plus hearing people ramble on and on hatefully on videos that have nothing to do with the topic is so insanely annoying and just sounds bitchy. if you wanted to make a rant about gen 5 then please make a seperate video, dont shove it in a video like this
"Sorry master but I have to go all out just this once.
Platinum use attract"
You are awesome and will be successful in your future life
cool profile pic!
No, YOU'RE breathtaking!
Stfu you beautiful person now have a nice day
There was an ungodly amount of mispronunciations of the Pokémon’s names. It it kinda grinds my gears but great video tho.
I'm getting the vibe he's doing it on purpose just for shits and giggles
Razzvy Berry haha yea
Gonna leave this here, even if this is an older video:
Gen 5's designs get a lot of hate, but I have to laugh that a lot of people that rip on Gen 5's designs also praise Gen 1's. You didn't here, so I'm not trying to tear into you with this MDB, simply laughing... because Gen 5's designs were meant to mirror Gen 1 in many ways. With some pokemon there is almost a 1-1 comparison on why they are designed as they are - Namely the Klinklang line and Garbodor line mirroring Magneton and Muk, or Amoongus mirroring Electrode. Gen 5 starts you out with no other options but the new stuff, because it was Gamefreak's attempt to reset everything for a bit.
You get 150 pokemon in the Unova dex. That's it until the post game. Some designs flopped because of this (Swoobat is god awful), and some are iffy at best (I like Cryogonal, but I am under no illusions that it isn't a great design).
But we also got pokemon like Zoroark, Excadrill, Hydreigon, Haxorus, Golurk, etc. There are some REALLY cool pokemon in Gen 5, but people point at Vanilluxe (Which was designed by an American. ... yeah, 1 pokemon was designed by an American. Not the bald eagle, but the ice cream with a face was the one that was) and Garbodor, but gloss past because it doesn't fit their narrative.
Couldn’t agree more (but btw James turner made vaniluxe line and he’s British)
Gen 1 gets a lot more praise because during the time that it was released, it had been considered something phenomenal (because of course that was based off that era’s standards) but since (as u have said) Gen 5’s pokémon designs were based off Gen 1, it pretty much makes it basic... since Gen 1, by today’s standard, isn’t that groundbreaking design-wise... so basing a NEWER generation on smth that is considered to be basic by modern standards, isn’t really the best thing to do, again design-wise
@@whitemagus7123 I agree on that, but even the stuff that parrallels gen 1's pokemon have arguably better and more interesting designs.
“No one kicks out of the falcon arrow”. Seth Rollins is going to pissed to learn that
True man. I love your comment dude
Seth Rollins? Lol hayabusa hits that move followed by the Phoenix splash for the win!
“Zed” lol. Canadians crack me up. Great video!
I like your name. Have a good one
Doesn't pretty much everyone but America say zed?
Guillem Moreno Yeah, but I find it strange how they do things the English way given their proximity to the US. I mean, around 3/4 of Canadians live within 100 miles from the border.
Carlos Marte Isn’t it funny that we DON’T use the English way, even though our founding fathers were English? Lmfao
Devil's Advocate We’ve been the cultural center of the world for almost a century, and we had ~160 years of (political and geographical) separation before that. Also, America is a melting pot of people whose native languages have transformed our lexicon. It’d be a miracle if we still used the English way given these circumstances.
19:23 "next is ....Archepus? I have no idea" made me actually laugh out loud. Very funny challenge, 10/10 entertainment value
Wow gen 5 was always my favorite, I didn't realize some people had so many problems with it
Your hair is cool
Sorry, he asked for it
Ur cool
Your opinion is great cause Gen 5 was amazing!
Gen 5 showed me some of my favourite Pokémon (Leavanny, Braviary, Gigalith being the ones that come to mind first) and two of my favourite gym leaders so it'll probably always stay as my favourite generation lol
@@erronhammesvar5168 the only bad pokemon from gen 5 i can think of, is amoongus
Welcome to : Let's trash gen 5, the playthrough.
I like Gen 5, I go over it in this video: ua-cam.com/video/UWVERhqie-o/v-deo.html&lc=Ugxu7MdkaDQhVU5HiaR4AaABAg
-Hugs- Your A Great Person. I wish you a Happy Life. ^^
I personally liked Gen 5. The Vanillite line was very creative. It's not ACTUALLY ice cream, it's evolved to resemble ice cream because of it's habitat. That's very realistic for Pokémon if you think about it.
You smell like a ray of sunshine. (Do you know what these smell like at all)?
It is the worst gen.
MDB the experience gain is low because you are way higher levelled since they changed the formula it seems annoying also follow MDB on Twitter
That was a great piece of wisdom!
They made it so it could be harder
Then everyone shat on that so it was changed to be easier
You are awesome!
just two dudes and then changed it again for gen 7
@@mrbaconslicez it's easier in gen 7 wym
Next challenge: play the game without using the words slow or rival battle
PENIS.
Son Gohan you need a long conversation with your mother
@@Bear0601 i don't have a MOTHER!!!!!!!
MDB: "I'll need other pokemon for HMS"
Me: "I'm sorry what!?"
I think beartic has a very nice design, as does cryogonal. The ice cream on the other hand...
I like vanilluxe way more than cryogonal personally, but it’s great to see some beartic love!
cryogonal could have been like spinda, each one has a unique pattern like how no two snowflakes look the same
Beartic is a cool dude and Cryogonal is cute to me! I just like how it look so happy. I do like Vanillite, but it’s evolutions... not so much...
Beartic looks fine in 2D, but god does his 3D model look terrible, though at least he's not anywhere near as poor off as Quilava or any of the other fire Pokemon that don't always have their fire on. Permanent 3D only made this franchise look worse.
Okay I really don't appreciate how hard you are on generation five, clearly just because you don't have any nostalgia for it or something like that. Seems like you went into it with a negative mindset that gen 5 sucks. So many cool and competitive Pokemon come from gen5 and version 2 has an awesome story. Yikes my guy.
No he’s not wrong. Gen 5 was insanely fun but it did have extremely lazy Pokémon. It was a joke when it came out. Bud. People hated pn Cryoganol, Chandelier, Musharna, etc. but it’s a lot better now. He’s not the only person that roasts gen 5. He’s only one in the majority. Hope you realize gen 5 is the most hated gen. I don’t know why. I think people are starting to hate Alola most. Personally I love gen 5. It’s probably my third favorite.
Devil's Advocate It’s sad people hate on gen 5, but can’t recognize the lamer pokemon in other gens.
Garbodor > Muk
Vanilluxe > glalie
Musharna was kinda lame, but still! I could list loads of crappy gen 1-4 pokemon that gen 5 has easily beat. Crazy, the amount of hate the greatest Pokémon generation gets :)
How was he hard on gen 5 lol?? He only said some of the Pokemon have terrible design. You need to stop getting offended.
@Lord Venom Gastly is Gen 1. Chandelure is Gen 5. Gen 1 was the rough period where things were a bit more of "throw this idea at a wall and see if it sticks" and less "we're starting to run out of ideas." People dunk on gen 1 designs, more so the japanese designs in green that have a lot of pokemon that look like straight trash.
Let's not forget the literal garbage bag pokemon from gen 5, or the key ring pokemon, or gear pokemon, or sword pokemon, or ice cream cone pokemon, or musharna who's a literal pink blob, or the sarcophagus pokemon, the literal snowflake, the snotty nosed polar bear, etc.
Gen 5 is polarizing for a reason. The desgins were pretty love or hate, most people have come to the consensus that Team Plasma is kinda dumb, and the anime adaptation sucking pretty hard definitely didn't help things.
But that's my opinion on things and you have yours. We're opposed on this subject and that's fine. I can respect it.
It marked the least popular the series has ever been. Which is why they brought back th Kanto starters in Kalos, because Unova left a very bitter taste in everyone's mouth. Also why in Black/Whte 2 they brought back the extended National DeX. Gen 5 was decent at best, and terrible at its worst.
Biddof: Master i learn *COMPASSION* but i already have 4 moves
_forget that_
I learn *THIRST FOR VENGEANCE* and the game Ends easily
You are awesome
Thanks for the meme Mark! You made my day!

"Whose that pokemon?"
Oh that's obviously Snivy
"IT'S BIDOOF"
what the fu-
Its jigglypuff seen from above.
I dunno if you’ve played Black and White 2, but I think they fix most of the issues you were talking about.
You lovely son of a caring mother
That’s So Good to hear. You Smell Nice
what he mentioned are not even issues. He just wants the empathy of hating a game lots of people hate or used to hate.
Ironically I thought BW was way better than BW2. The second ones were just....missing something that the first ones had. But I suppose mechanics wise it did make some improvements.
Pancake Slice it’s the other way around for me, BW missing something that BW2 have, but hey that’s a valid opinion to have
I love your content MDB and you seem like a great guy but it hurts to hear you insult my favourite dragons.
Also, just a thought, wouldn't it be faster to use save states when doing sessions that are basically slow grinds of just waiting on RNG. You're already using a ROM to get the starter so why not, right?
You're pretty epic
I have a raging erection in my heart for Zekrom so it was pretty tough to hear D:
The rival battles in Black & White never bothered me too much because the idea was that it's meant to be you and your childhood friends on the adventure together, growing together, and testing eachothers progress. I feel that it adds a small sense of camaraderie that the games before it didn't have, as the previous rivals up to then had either been hostile towards you, or barely contributed anything at all.
N, however, I could do without.
I get N is the "testing your true strength" rival but him on top of two others, i think we should've fought him less. Fighting him should've been saved for bigger story points
@@pinkypride8615 And his team isn't even as hard as Cheren's, because he only has Pokemon from the area you're in, and usually only like 3 of them. Big fail as a "Rival".
@@godqueensadie i get he's all "anti pokeball" and would just have the pokemon around the area, but that seems all the more reason to save him for moments like the reshiram/zekrom fight
@@pinkypride8615 Yeah, have him just be present for the story, but not a battle until the end
I watch your videos as I grind in my own games. Your idiotic optimism is infectious. Thank you for keeping me going on my 60th try for the 1/40 item drop
I love your videos and admire all the hard work you`re doing. Everyone is entitiled to their own opinions, but I think you`re to harsh on Reshiram and Zekrom, I`m not a huge fan of the Gen 5 designs either, a lot of dumb designs there IMHO. But Zekrom, and especially Reshiram have awsome designs. But hey, it`s your opinion versus mine. Keep up the fantastic work man!
@@MrMinimusss yob
Have a nice day!
@@bilboswaggins3118 I shouldn't have laughed at reading this
Too slow to play....that's Gen 4, not 5. Gen 7 is quite slow as well, but for other reasons.
Half of the complaining is just unfair towards these games though. Sure, these games are unfriendly towards grinding to high level, but 99% of the players aren't even doing a 1 member team. xD
Yeah and when I played White for the first time I enjoyed the challenge of getting my mons grinded up to beating the elite 4 and when I got to catch Zekrom it felt so good especially with that cutscene
Kyu lightning You are a fantastic person have a good day.
Dude props to you for keeping going even when you had grind for hours on end. And congrats
Thank you, someone actually giving props.
Imagine establishing a giant evil group to catch a legendary Electric Dragon mon. Thinking you will rule the world but get kicked ass by a Bidoof - catchable at starting routes 🤣
I think U didn't get how unaware works.
If a Pokémon with this Ability uses a damaging move or is targeted by a damaging move, the other Pokémon's stat stages are ignored during damage and accuracy calculation.
Specifically, when a Pokémon with this Ability uses a damaging move, the evasion stat stages of the targets are ignored during accuracy calculation, and the Defense and Special Defense stat stages of the targets are ignored during damage calculation; when a Pokémon with this Ability is targeted by a damaging move, the accuracy stat stages of the attacking Pokémon are ignored during accuracy calculation, and the Attack and Special Attack stat stages of the attacking Pokémon are ignored during damage calculation.
Unaware will not prevent the moves Gyro Ball, Electro Ball, Stored Power, Punishment, and Power Trip from factoring in the stat changes that determine their power. This Ability has no effect on a Pokémon hurting itself in confusion.
If they use a stat altering move on U, it still works
This would’ve been so much easier without a modest nature
ur cool
Impressive that you beat the game with Bidoof. Ghetsis team was pretty strong against a normal team.
Something nice
I like your profile pic!
During the end, I wasn’t listening to him. I was jamming out to the elite four music.
Gen 5 Pokemon Designs: 0 out of 10.
Music Designs: 100 out of 10.
I was trying not to focus on the music cuz I think it sucks.
You were waaay too cynical on this game in my opinion, I love these games a lot.. still, liked the vid!
Amazing comment and profile pic :)

I think Gen 5 is great, but I have a lot of criticisms of it. I criticise because I care.
same.. but its ok.. its your opinion..
You = great
Say something nice about someone in the comments he said. Well then I have to admit, I think that loving Gen 5 is wise and you have good taste. While I think some of the Pokemon from it are terrible Pokemon such as Chandelure and Galvantula are ones I do have a high level of fondness for as with my first playthrough my Galvantula handled the entire league for me.
I can understand why, but honestly it is my least favorite gen
Me: **challenges Ghetsis with a full team with no repeated types, loses**
MDB: **challenges Ghetsis with a **-god-** Bidoof, wins**
Nice comment 😁
It took him over 100 tries so i'm sure your team is just fine
Hey! MDB i love you channel and your creative challenges, about the exp in gen 5, i think that's actually a good thing, because it "forces" you to beat the game with strategies instead of just overleveling 'till you are 20 levels over the 8th gym, yeah, its a pain for challenges like this, but the games are not supposed to be played like that, so it adds more difficulty to the challenges :D
I agree! I think it's overall a good game mechanic, it's just awful for single Pokemon Challenges, hence why I hardly ever do Gen 5 runs
@@MahDryBread depends of what pokemon do you use, some pokes can sweep almost anything, i recently beat pokemon white 2 with a team of only 3, Emboar, Swanna and Ferrothorn and 2 HM slaves, whatever one of them can't beat, the other two could. i only added more members to the team for the pokemon league, but yeah, gen 5 exp system is a real pain for One pokemon challenges, that's why i really admire your dedication/stubborness keep going MDB :D
