That's actually a rare fact, the starting Poochyena will always flee if your Pokémon are low enough health. I think it was so that people wouldn't white out on the first random encounter and potentially mess up the game, but who knows, could have been to not make you feel bad about yourself for losing to a level 2

You can still white out if it crits you just before you hit the flee range. The game just sorta heals you and continues as normal.

I don’t know looks min HP to me
I popped off when I saw that. I'm so glad he noticed too
@@haydes1285 Nah dude. If you look at his HP increase on level up throughout the video, it seems like Ant is HP EV training Shedinja to be max HP. Since Shedinja doesn't have a good HP to begin with, he probably would not do that if it wasn't max IV.
Could you imagine if it just had 0 max hp.
I have to say, the Shiny placement was an excellent move. You could've just removed them entirely, but going the extra mile and making shinies a guaranteed spawn *only* when you can't possibly catch them was genius.
Making them shiny in wild battles when you can't possibly guarantee to catch them would be even better
@@Liggliluff but hard to code. I say Atsign should’ve made it always be shiny if ant didn’t have and pokeballs

Fun fact, in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, it is possible for the capture tutorial with Wally to end with Ralts fainting. This can only happen if Zigzagoon is generated with 11 Attack, the Ralts has a Nature that lowers Defense, an IV of 3 or less in HP, and 5 or less in Defense. With all this, Zigzagoon can do a maximum of 10 damage with its first Tackle, and after Growl is used on it, 7 with its second. This makes for a total of 17 damage, just enough to knock out Ralts. However, the game continues on as if it had been caught. The normal probability of this alone occurring is 0.01%, but on top of that, it can be a shiny.
I'm honestly not sure if seeing this occur in a normal game counts as good luck or bad luck.
good, because you couldn't catch it anyways so you can just laugh at Wally
In speedruns technically it's good because it's a little bit faster than sitting through the catch animation.
@@mattb2741 praise!
I do not remember how to do this math but i THINK it is a 0,0002% chance of it hapening

What I really enjoy about Smant's challenge run is that he almost always flips the script and turns his disadvantages into actual parts of his strategy, like instead of complaining about getting a low-roll every turn, he just sees it as guaranteed consistent damage and plans his next move around that.

@@mk5291 Oh i know quite a few streamers that would

Not sure. It has a hard coded 2 in 3 chance to miss. And i think it still always fails in case of a speed or level difference, but that might just be gen 1. Either way you could always pp stall it
This takes my fear of missing a 95% accurate move on the next level.

I legitimately lost it at the Knock Off Makuhita, because of course it has that. Of course it has a super-effective move to kill Shedinja. I didn't even remember it got that, but it does.
Ah, Wally's disappearing shiny Ralts. Got that in a Nuzlocke once, wish I'd documented that run. I joked that he was sad about his Ralts's hair being a different color than his, so he dyed it green to match.
Honestly that's kinda an adorable thought and I can see Wally doing that after asking his Ralts if it was okay
@@hipowdownx4479 I feel like Wally would be the kind of person to dye his own hair instead honestly
Werster has a clip of Wally getting a shiny Ralts in a speedrun of the vanilla game, and yeah, it didn't stay shiny for Wally's future encounters (since really Wally's future encounters are already set in the game, not based on the initial catch sequence).

To make it even worse they could have made it check if you have a pokeball in your bag when you go into a wild battle, and make it shiny if you don't have any pokeballs.

@@Akwatypus - He does call them out on it sometimes too. lol
Always low-rolling actually feels kinda useful because you know at all times how much damage your attacks are gonna do.
And you know that you won’t crit to accidentally kill a potential capture. Also you know how much damage your opponent is going to do to you, it’s a lot but you are always ready for it, no surprising you with an unexpected crit.

Late thing to add: if he has the persistence to make it to the Elite Four, Shedinja is going to be key to defeating Steven. Metagross's move set is Psychic, Meteor Mash, Earthquake, and Hyper Beam. An incredibly powerful move set... none of which can hurt Shedinja.
Then again, he'll probably need to be 70-something to beat Glacia. (Rescinded because Sheer Cold won't work on a higher level Pokemon anyway... But he'll still need really high levels to get past a Walrein that always crits with Surf and always paralyzes with Body Slam)

It'd be so funny if you stacked this with the mod that made stat drops permanent. It was what I thought of as soon as you said, "If I ever get hit with a sand attack, that pokemon is useless."

Sableye would have been a good pokemon for this challenge too, normal, fighting and psychic types cannot hit you, you get good moves too while leveling up and sabyleye is neutral to other types so you can take couple of hits unlike shedinja.
12:53 Dang this is actually a pretty cool bit of trivia to me! The other day, I saw a Shedinja in Colosseum that knew Swords Dance. It's not listed in its moveset anywhere, so I kinda figured that the devs had basically put a hackmon on the NPC team, but to my surprise it looks like devs took this obscure-ish fact into account to make a Shedinja that legitimately knew Swords Dance. I guess Bulbapedia could've told me this too but it's pretty far down and hidden among all the other trivia on Shedinja's page so it's easy to miss.
Fun fact! Someone once did a Nuzlocke challenge of Ruby with a very similar concept - it was called the "Worst Luck Possible Nuzlocke" by someone named Zowayix and it's legendary on the old Nuzlocke Forums. I'd recommend anyone interested to check it out - it's a classic!
I was wondering when someone was going to bring that up here. It's a shame they never finished it though.

So freezing moves will always freeze and since when you thaw is dependent on luck you're never gonna thaw. Also Steven is gonna be brutal because he has an armaldo with ancient power for a guaranteed boost and metagross with guaranteed meteor mash attack boosts
Armaldo is gonna have the omni boost, Metagross the only atack boost
Can’t be frozen with sunlight, I’d guess that’s the strat
Could sheinja beat metagross I dont remember it having anything super effective against it.
Also remember he has a 1-use get-out-of-jail-free card with Wobuffett. Not sure if freezers have supereffective against Shedinja, if not just PP stalling is an option (then swap once PP is gone)
meteor mash is not omniboost
Thinking about it, this challenge would be near impossible in gen 1 due to the 1/256 glitch and opponents not using pp. You'd have to use an x-accuracy in every battle, or exclusively use Swift, amd you can't get either of them before the first gym
Luckily, Gen 1’s gyms are optional. You can just wrong-warp to the game’s end credits without even leaving the player character’s bedroom.
If the hack maker (for this supposed "Bad Luck" hack of RBY) ignored the 1/256 glitch it would probably make for quite a good challenge, though the game isn't as luck-centric as emerald until you look at competitive and blue kaizo
The 256 glitch wasn't due to any game mechanics so it wouldn't be affected by this

Your knowledge of Pokemon games is incredible. Love the thought process you go through to be successful in these challenges.
Reminds me of an old run documented on the nuzlocke forums. There was this guy who did a "worst luck possible nuzlocke" run of Ruby. He didn't take the concept quite this far, like IVs were still random for example and encounters worked just like normal, other than that the rules were much the same. Main difference was that he made sure to do every fight optimally, preparing and planning for every encounter so that no pokemon of his would die, or if one had to die, he would get the absolute most out of it (and he also limited leveling so that his mons can never be more than 5 levels higher than next major opponent's ace), so yeah, very similar idea, but very different approach

-status effects always proc (flinch, infatuation, paralysis, confusion always hit yourself)

were encounter rates factored into the "luck" portion of this mod? also u always catch everything and get a high roll crit, always land secondary effects, never miss, etc. would not bring any challenge whatsoever. the reason a run like this is interesting is because the base games of everything before gen 4 and after gen 5 are extremely easy even if you play with traditional nuzlocke rules, don't heal in battle, play on set, don't overlevel, etc. so this is a way to force them to be difficult (though it does seem to mostly add tedium since it makes you resort to overleveling the shit out of your pokemons and using x items & healing items in battle)
@@joedorben3504 he was getting encounters every 4 tiles he walked, chat said that's the minimum you can walk before getting an encounter. not sure if there is a max but if there isn't he wouldn't get any wild pokemon. other than that it would probably be easy, I just thought it would be neat, maybe there are some custom nuzlock rules that would make a normal game almost impossible but wouldn't be as bad with this?
It would be unbelievably easy. Even if grass provides no encounters, you can fish, so there is no issue with not having encounters. And if you pick Mudkip, all Pokémon that aren’t flying type or have levitate are immediately invalidated, since it learns mud-slap and muddy water.

I really enjoy watching you figure out how to get through these challenges; your Pokémon knowledge is enviable.
Why did bro never continue this? It was so much fun
I think he did, he just never made it into a video
@@B0T_Monka thats sad i wanna see it is it on twitch or something
@@sasquatchdude4537 it’s most likely saved as a vod on his twitch. It just won’t be cut and clean like this video

Love this! Really looking forward to seeing the rest of the journey
Crazy how I knew about cutting grass in Pokemon Gold at 8 years old, but never once did it again in Gen 3 when those came out. Caught me off guard when Ant used the strat in this run :D
I did it in Sapphire to catch Latias because I thought "If I cut all the grass but one square, it MUST be in that patch!" Knowing about encounter mechanics now I realise that was a dumb idea yet 9-yo me thought it was genius.
this reminds me of that ”can you beat pokemon with the exact same button presses every time” video where he had to make a run where no matter crits, misses and random pokemon spawns u always win the game. its like the same idea except it automatically does it for u and tells u to beat it lol
3:45 I’m genuinely surprised SmallAnt doesn’t know that level doesn’t effect catch rate
Been waiting for this after all the clips! I can't even imagine how long and arduous the full journey was!
Wasn't long, pretty boring actually. I expected a lot more from Potiputipompus returning to capture the crit in the mokipok energy destabilizer. Did you find the divider too simplistic to quantify a significant departure of crit CT4364 or am I the only intelligent monopoly conveyor playing undercover?

This is an interesting challenge to actually strategize since you have the same outcomes happening.
Even planning out guaranteed damage ranges is interesting with this challenge.
It also highlights how many moves are unusable if they can miss.
"we have to kill it" was so funny. It's like he was giving his kids bad news
Atsogn should’ve made it to where if you didn’t have poke balls it would be a 100% chance shiny but as soon as you got one pokeball it turns to 0% shiny chance
Every time I watch Smallant I feel just a little bit happier. Thanks Smallant.
Alternate title: Milo Murphy plays Pokémon.
YESSSSS
Lmao
That show got robbed.
YES!
I would pay to see someone voice act milo murphy and copy everything smant says in this video.
Ways to make this worse
Instead of the pokemon breaking out *immediately,* it always make sure to let the animation play right up before it could lock in.
AI always goes for paralysis or sleep first if possible, as it’s guaranteed to go into effect for every turn
Wild pokemon that have “guaranteed catches” always go for Self-Destruct first. Guaranteed shiny optional
Your pokemon crit without fail if it’ll result in fainting the wild pokemon, but only if it has a “guaranteed catch”
Metronome always leads to Splash if used by you, or [strongest possible super-effective move] if used by the opponent.
Game randomly crashes just as your about to win a battle, because SERIOUSLY Satan, when are you going to return my calls??
Still waiting on part 2 for this video!
This looks like such a genuinely fun mod to try out. So many mechanics to try out that have been hiding under our noses all this while.
I really appreciate this format, where the stream highlights speak for themselves without any other commentary.
Really enjoyed this video!
"I did not win this battle, Ralts lost this battle" is the most painfully accurate description I've ever heard
This is basically "Pokémon, but with Fire Emblem RNG"
I love this mod! You have these moments where you get Spark paralyzed in normal playthroughs too but here it just reminds me of how bad your luck can be it's hilarious!
I've been waiting so long for this video! So glad this is here!
"We got the max HP shedinja" I love you man.
Please upload the rest of this challenge TT

"We did get lucky for once, we got a max HP Shedinja..." Love it man right
Kinda wish there was a part II for this one...
I love how the Guts description is “Ups ATTACK if suffering”
