Hey guys, tonight at 9pm due to an internet outage delaying it, I'll be streaming over on Twitch, since I'll be starting a Hardcore Nuzlocke Race in US/UM, going against @FlygonHG to see who will come out on top. Come and check it out after the video: www.twitch.tv/chaoticmeatballtv
Hell yeah, and with little to no hand-holding. Gen 3 does the same thing and it was awesome. Games after that dedicated to hand-holding, and that's when the series lost it's charm.
@@FernieAriel And its tedious grinding pre league. Sad they never reached a balance to have benefits of both exploration and controller difficulty curve.
The Roar glitch that deletes Raikou/Entei from the save game if they use it in a wild encounter only exists in FireRed and LeafGreen, though I am a little late to save you the anxiety of losing them forever in this run of Crystal
Shiny tyrogue only has a 1% overall chance of coming from the odd egg, so that was very fortunate! If you breed it (after it evolves) with your jynx you have a 1/64 chance to get shiny smoochum (1/128 with electrabuzz and magmar though since the offspring's gender is not locked).
@@RyansFine caught a red gyrados, ratatta, drowzee Pokemon Crystal. And some in Pokemon Go when it was a thing. Was not intentionally looking for any of them because guess what, they’re worthless!
You should do a professor oak challenge in the new pokemon snap, before you move on to the next island, you max out the island you are on and take a picture of every pokemon there. If you want to make it more challenging, you could get every pokemon and take 1-4 star photos for every one of them.
That's a question, can you defeat Claire as part of the grind since she doesn't actually give you the badge until later? Is there an "official" rule about that? As the gym white-out strategy exists, challenging the leader isn't the trigger, but is it defeating them or getting the badge?
Idk why but I feel like this is one of the best POC’s ever complete and uploaded. Really enjoyed this one, and I don’t really like gen 2 all that much.
Gen II is my favourite generation so I am probably biased, but I also enjoyed this video more than other POC's. Maybe it is just me but I really do not like those long lists of Pokémon rattled off. I always zone out during those parts. This one was actually spread out pretty decently.
Will always be my favorite game! and with the release of celebi on the 3DS; it just makes it even better. Best 10$ I’ve ever spent. Unlimited celebi, all guaranteed 5 max IV’s (with chance at perfect 6) and can be shiny hunted. Albeit at full 1/8192 odds, but still. It’s possible atleast. Only issues I have it the Pokémon availability. Misdreavus only at the literal end of the game, sneasel in the ice cave, etc. my favorites are end game. Limits what you can use on a playthrough.
I did this challenge as well but the way that I ended up doing it was I got Magby from the odd egg which technically lets you get more Pokemon sooner because you can get Tyrogue before the Elite Four no matter what but unless it's the odd egg you can't get Magby until before red
Awesome video, I am doing a lite version of this same challenge: Must catch all base pokemon available before the next gym leader, and if there is an evolved version available, you must catch it, or evolve to it. Basically I have 0 interest in grinding, but rather an easier way for me to get all 250 before finishing the game.
Awesome video Crystal was my first Pokémon game so was cool to see everything that was possible to accomplish in this game to complete the dex like I used to when playing
As someone that never played gen 2, this entire video was me saying "wait, that one was a gen 2 pokemon?" For some reason i thought half of the gen 2 mons were gen 3
I used to say that when I was a kid, since I hadn't played Gen 2 until the remakes came out. To be honest, this is my first full playthrough of Crystal, and I think it's a lot better than Gold/Silver.
POC Request: pmd explorers, pmd gates to infinity, pmd blue rescue team, pokemon uranium, pokemon xenoverse, pokemon insurgence, pokemon solar light and lunar dark(that's one game to clear up confusion) I'd love to see any of these
Perhaps you forgot Buena's password radio show? (Crystal only)... you have theoretically an unlimited supply of rare candies and nuggets if you are able to set the time... (it beats selling berries for sure since nuggets are only 3 pts!)
I’m not sure if you have ever seen the Netflix show never have I ever but you sound exactly like the character named ben in that show lol good video I really enjoyed it!!
Hello, how about a new challange called follow anime challenge? I request to have first the johto journey done. This means that you have to follow exactly the events in the anime and to catch and use only the pokemon from the anime. Rule: when it is not possible to catch a pokemon, you should trade it from another game (like for the johto starters). In this challange you should include the related movies (for example the movie celebi voice of the forest should be included in the Johto journey, etc..). You have to show briefly the episode and major events while playing the game! You have been challenged , monseiur!
The most disgusting thing in these games(as well as the remakes), is Houndour not being in its actual region. But in a region it originally did not exist in.
You're telling me dunsparce is a 1% encounter? I did a playthrough of Pokemon that don't evolve and I got it in like five encounters. My luck with low percent encounters is insane
one strategy i havent seen people employ into these challenges is intentionally losing to trainer battles to rematch them for fast XP gains. Obviously this would only work on trainers with multiple pokemon to fight. I used to do this in Blue version as a kid... lol
I was hoping to see Crystal Kaizo but I guess this will due for now haha love these videos man I hope to see crystal kaizo and radical red one of these days
Lol as sad as it is to say I was one of the non subscribed viewers. I assumed I was since I really enjoy your content. Thanks for the reminder to check!
I remember on my complete Pokedex run when I tried doing the Daylight Savings trick to get enough Water Stones from I think Fisherman Tully, he always seemed to want a rematch instead. There isn't some limit on them, are they? After a while I got frustrated enough where I traded my Water Stone Pokemon over to Blue and used Water Stones from the Celadon Dept. Store to evolve them. Or was I just extremely unlucky that he was never fishing up Water Stones?
It’s really amazing that you evolved your Golbat at level 23. Mine is level 25 and hasn’t evolved. Am I missing something if you can’t check your friendship before Goldenrod City?
Late but in Crystal walking 512 steps gives a tiny boost to friendship and leveling up in the same area as capture gives a meaty boost to friendship so walking in circles and battling where you caught Zubat will super boost friendship. The walking thing kind of continues in future games but the same area as capture training is exclusive to Crystal.

My two favorite poketubers!!!
Pretty crazy how much Johto opens up after 3 badges lol.
Hell yeah, and with little to no hand-holding.
Gen 3 does the same thing and it was awesome. Games after that dedicated to hand-holding, and that's when the series lost it's charm.
@@FernieAriel And its tedious grinding pre league. Sad they never reached a balance to have benefits of both exploration and controller difficulty curve.
At the downside of stronger encounters. Sucks trying to grind before the elite four
I’m gen 4 you could grind the elite four before fighting the kanto gym leaders which I only found out after I beat hg a while ago
That's nothing, gen1 opens wide open for the most part when you beat misty
The Roar glitch that deletes Raikou/Entei from the save game if they use it in a wild encounter only exists in FireRed and LeafGreen, though I am a little late to save you the anxiety of losing them forever in this run of Crystal
And here I was wondering how they could make that mistake twice
Shiny tyrogue only has a 1% overall chance of coming from the odd egg, so that was very fortunate! If you breed it (after it evolves) with your jynx you have a 1/64 chance to get shiny smoochum (1/128 with electrabuzz and magmar though since the offspring's gender is not locked).
Depends on what you wanna breed for. I went with the 1% shiny pichu to get a shiny eevee.
No one cares about shinies
@@HistoryandReviews Said by someone who's prolly never caught one
@@RyansFine caught a red gyrados, ratatta, drowzee Pokemon Crystal. And some in Pokemon Go when it was a thing. Was not intentionally looking for any of them because guess what, they’re worthless!
@@HistoryandReviews easily the most ridiculous statement I’ve ever seen on the internet

I’ve never played the original Johto games, and crystal looks like the one I’d most likely get.
If you’re going to play any of them, Crystal is probably the best one
Unless you really want ampharos, crystal is definitely the way to go
3DS virtual console bruh
I agree crystal is the way to go unless you want ampharos or suicune before the elite 4.
Do it. The crystal virtual console release is fantastic!
Yesssss its a New POC. These are the best!!!
What does poc mean
Wait it’s professor oaks challenge nvm lol
Ikr
That's a question, can you defeat Claire as part of the grind since she doesn't actually give you the badge until later? Is there an "official" rule about that? As the gym white-out strategy exists, challenging the leader isn't the trigger, but is it defeating them or getting the badge?
I’m pretty sure the Johto rule is that beating Clair ends pre badge-8, with the actual collection of the badge being in pre-Champion
Good point. But either way, defeating the Gym Leader so soon would not necessarily be wise since their high level Pokemon can help with leveling.
It's nice to finally have a Professor Oak challenge of crystal in video form
Idk why but I feel like this is one of the best POC’s ever complete and uploaded. Really enjoyed this one, and I don’t really like gen 2 all that much.
Gen II is my favourite generation so I am probably biased, but I also enjoyed this video more than other POC's. Maybe it is just me but I really do not like those long lists of Pokémon rattled off. I always zone out during those parts. This one was actually spread out pretty decently.
Ikr? For some reason i enjoyed this one more, and i havent even played gen2 yet
Will always be my favorite game! and with the release of celebi on the 3DS; it just makes it even better. Best 10$ I’ve ever spent.

Wow, I can't believe 122 hours is quickly lmao this challenge is much more fun to watch than actually do. Great video!
How did I make it all these years and that's the first time I've ever heard of the flash trick in the Aerodactyl room??
Should do a Professor Oak's challenge of pokemon Vietnamese Crystal lol😂
This was my first game 😍
Crystal is an underrated gem 💎
How is this game underrated
@@ehhhhhhhhhhk It does seem like a game stops being underrated after it passes the 5 million units sold
Useful numbers on Crystal are Alan, Gina, Tully and Dana as they give you the Fire Stone, Leaf Stone, Water Stone and Thunder Stone respectively.
I did this challenge as well but the way that I ended up doing it was I got Magby from the odd egg which technically lets you get more Pokemon sooner because you can get Tyrogue before the Elite Four no matter what but unless it's the odd egg you can't get Magby until before red
But hatching a tyrogue gets you more Pokémon
What a great video, was really missing those poc videos, thank you for the great content
I absolutely love these poc’s bro! Keep up the amazing content ❤️
28:50 I’m pretty sure that glitch is only in FireRed and LeafGreen
Yup best place to be is right below ecruteke if the encounter already happened save reset check map, if hes not in same area reset
Awesome video, I am doing a lite version of this same challenge: Must catch all base pokemon available before the next gym leader, and if there is an evolved version available, you must catch it, or evolve to it.

Crystal was my first Pokémon game so was cool to see everything that was possible to accomplish in this game to complete the dex like I used to when playing
I love Crystal version so many memories of playing this game constantly 😍😍
I just gotta say I love this channel's visual identity
Thanks to scarlet and violet when you said iron tail I thought you mentioned a paradox Pokémon, it took me a solid seconds to remember it was a move
As someone that never played gen 2, this entire video was me saying "wait, that one was a gen 2 pokemon?" For some reason i thought half of the gen 2 mons were gen 3

Yeah, same. Like Slugma, Skarmory, and Lanturn to name a few.
POC Request: pmd explorers, pmd gates to infinity, pmd blue rescue team, pokemon uranium, pokemon xenoverse, pokemon insurgence, pokemon solar light and lunar dark(that's one game to clear up confusion)
I'd love to see any of these
Our first valid completed gen 2 POC! So happy.
Man, pokemon is so nostalgic for me
Did you forget to put the headbutt map of Ilix Forest into the description?
That was way less painful that I imagined but yeah I was mixing GS with Crystal 😅
Perhaps you forgot Buena's password radio show? (Crystal only)... you have theoretically an unlimited supply of rare candies and nuggets if you are able to set the time... (it beats selling berries for sure since nuggets are only 3 pts!)
4:44 wait what?? I had no idea he had that item, I always skipped him :/
Talking about the Onix? Pretty sure its holding a Bitter Berry iirc
Wow , I am on this for a month and wanted a guide badly . Late but still thanks . Now I can finish my crystal dex fast
It's finished. YES dude. You've earned a phat like
Great video! What emulator did you use for this?
I really like the evolution animations
I’m not sure if you have ever seen the Netflix show never have I ever but you sound exactly like the character named ben in that show lol good video I really enjoyed it!!
U deserve the 100.000Sub Goal for real dude your absolutely incredible for all these videos.
Excellent video. It takes alot of dedication to make something like this!
Nice you got Phanpy in this early! I was sad when you didn't get Phanpy in Heartgold.
I was asleep when this came out
can we do insurgence poc soon? Ik you said you would, but I'm looking forward to it!
Glad you said to physically check if we’re subbed or not, I thought i was, needless to say, I’m subbed now 😂
I wanna see this in xenoverse, been stuck myself for months xD , nice catch them all
Why you POC of pokemon platinum has disappeared from the channel?
Its actually insane that you can get frickin 4 6 pokemon before the first badge in a gen 2 game

You have been challenged , monseiur!
I never knew that tediursa or growlithe can be caught early
Next P.O.C. you should try to do is Pokémon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, that would be so fun to see
in the manga Cris was the only one to actually complete the pokedex so this is fitting
In for the premier before I go to sleep! Less goooo
U working on ur next poc
@@omnielite8270 I am and it's a rom hack so its taking quite a while!
@@SooperE123_ can’t wait for it
"Circling back to jerks"
I see what you did 🤣
Damn, these old school sprites look so much better then today's pokemon games
The absolute disrespect beating Falkner with Pidgeot.
16:23 Um.. Sir? I don't think that's legal... 😂
useful guide, got the virtual version also.
30:19 Say it with me NEW BARK TOWN
This poor dude I couldn't imagine playing pokemon this much
I saw one shiny snubull… was there more shinies?
I still prefer my hardware collection.
That was ditto
The most disgusting thing in these games(as well as the remakes), is Houndour not being in its actual region. But in a region it originally did not exist in.
You're telling me dunsparce is a 1% encounter? I did a playthrough of Pokemon that don't evolve and I got it in like five encounters. My luck with low percent encounters is insane
Great content! It would be cool to see you do the Professor Oaks Challenge in Pokemon Crystal Kaizo as well. 😊😊😊
one strategy i havent seen people employ into these challenges is intentionally losing to trainer battles to rematch them for fast XP gains. Obviously this would only work on trainers with multiple pokemon to fight. I used to do this in Blue version as a kid... lol
16:23 we need to discuss this
I was hoping to see Crystal Kaizo but I guess this will due for now haha love these videos man I hope to see crystal kaizo and radical red one of these days
Meowth’s payday +amulet coin no need to change time to farm appricorns for money
Ghastly vs Casper
The roar glitch is only in fire red and leaf green
Lol as sad as it is to say I was one of the non subscribed viewers. I assumed I was since I really enjoy your content. Thanks for the reminder to check!
I assume it's against the rules to use the clone glitch to duplicate odd eggs and evolution stones
i cant believe i havent been subscribed

ayo do pokemon conquest for the next POC
You should do a P.O.C on Pokémon Aureolin it's really fun, and not that hard to do
I AM subscribed, but that was a great call to action so I want to sub all over.
My husband showed me this, all i can ask "What is wrong with this man??"
Jokes aside its fun to see my childhood game ground to the earth.
Subscribed!
great video!!
I thought that roaming legendary glitch was only in fire red
Hey Chaotic have you thought about doing a POC in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX?
I wonder how would Radical Red POC be like considering the built in level cap
YOU CAN CATCH PHANPY AT THE START?????
WHA-
I've played this game A TON OF TIMES and never knew this!!
Edit: TEDDIURSA, TOO?!
Is the Tin Tower blocked before Kanto?
I’m going to do this for torture
i'd love to know how many days it took you from start to finish to do this because 124 hours is bonkers
It’s really amazing that you evolved your Golbat at level 23. Mine is level 25 and hasn’t evolved. Am I missing something if you can’t check your friendship before Goldenrod City?
Late but in Crystal walking 512 steps gives a tiny boost to friendship and leveling up in the same area as capture gives a meaty boost to friendship so walking in circles and battling where you caught Zubat will super boost friendship.
The walking thing kind of continues in future games but the same area as capture training is exclusive to Crystal.
How the hell did you name one of the Tyrogue Ty2? You can't even use numeric characters in Gen 2.
Oof I’m also playing crystal. Real shame that gen 1 virtual consoles can’t trade with it. Super tempting to get a shiny Celebi.
29:49
That's not an Umbreon!
Let's Go Johto! Let's Go Johto!
You can catch larvitar at the cave by the 8th badges rifht?
With getting the evolution stones. Do you have to wait to get the call from those and go back and forth a few times or do they pile up?
I need to know how you get too much stones?
im sorry. how the heck did you pronounce Togetic's name there?
You should definitely be able to trade, but maybe limit it to only pokemon that need trade for evolution?
chaotic you forgot to put the link to the trees in discruption
30:24 lol :)
You could level up a Pokémon with Roar
Where's the calculator for the trees?
Thank you for the reminder, putting it in the description now.
