Very nice run by UC, it feels nice to see the Elite Four rematch done by TAS. I remember not knowing about it when I was younger and going in with the same team that I had used for the first encounter. My reaction when I end up seeing Heracross, Misdreavus, and Piloswine was just utter confusion. I'm pretty sure after that I found out about Johto Pokémon appearing throughout the game..
Playing the game with just one 'mon takes the difficulty from "medium-hard" to "breezin' through". Well… provided the player fights every opponent available, I mean. Skipping fights, of course, still leads to low levels and challenging fights. (;
@@gregoryford2532 yeah, the rng manipulation kinda hides the various ways the AI is set up to make this sort of run require a lot of grinding if you really want to eschew all strategy and only use one poke.
holy shit, i never even thought about how broken metronome would be in a tas. there's so much rng manipulation that you could always get the ideal move, or just the nearest move that kills in 1 hit
I like how this game uses more varied instruments in its songs compared to RSE. I love that trumpet more then anyone on this realm of existence, but seeing the team use the hardware is also great. Oh, and nice TAS. The RNG must've been a pain in the ass
21:33 On the way through Mt. Moon, I took the Helix Fossil. I knew that if I didn't say what I took, you'd all ask. Actually, now that I think about it, everyone ask anyway. Comments are good for the UA-cam algorithm.
buffering inputs doesn't guarantee good RNG, it just refers to when you can hold a button and it will apply on some later frame consistently. Gen 3 doesn't have that, the inputs for the most part are unbufferable; the RNG is manipulated via precisely crafted delays
If the TAS for other main line pokemon games works like this, I'd love to see a team of TAS mon's for gen 6 and onwards. Imagine, the absolute MONSTERS of every generation in one team.
I always find it weird that the store clerk in Viridian, when you first walk into the shop, yells “hey are you from Pallet Town”? Like what would make them think that? Also with other people going in and out of the store, would they have also yelled at them and ask if they were from Pallet Town as well? Just seems out of the ordinary for a clerk to yell that at random patrons entering the store…
I always figured the towns were so close Pallet towners would head north to do their shopping. It would make sense that the clerk recognized Red, at least in passing, enough to know he wasn't a local.
2:25:59 Are you sure you have to inspect the entrance to Dotted Hole before you can use Cut to open it? I could've sworn you could just use Cut right away.
Yes, you do have to actually go to the menu to use Cut there. Otherwise, if you had your cutter on you, you could unintentionally solve the puzzle just by checking to see what the puzzle is.
@@UnopenedClosure I know you have to go into the menu. I mean you read the inscription--I seem to recall just opening the menu in front of the door on repeat playthroughs and using Cut immediately.
@@nilvana7540 you might be right, although the next sections are so RNG-heavy that the potential timesave could get gobbled up. I’ll investigate it if/when I go back and rework this

@@galaxyquestminute7490 It should be able to rollback steps that result in encounters. Or do you mean some steps are guaranteed to cause encounter no matter how many repeats?
@@lolwhat19 The latter. Whether or not you get an encounter in FRLG is governed by a completely separate RNG from all of the rest of the random events in the game.

Lucky Egg was considered, but the extra EXP doesn’t provide enough benefit. By that stage in the run, the game is catching up with Clefable power-wise, and you need the Quick Claw to outspeed things

I knew it. The strategy of just focusing on one pokemon is always the best.

RNG manipulation in this is just crazy, like really crazy.
They must be buffering so many inputs non-stop throughout the entire TAS.

@@TiKevin83 Ah I see, okay then.
"i loved the gen 1 remakes! what was your team?"
"clefable and 5 tm slaves"
metronome in a tas is basically having every move in existence

Reminds me of this episode of To Catch a Predator with the guy that claims he asks everyone if they’re a cop
Maybe Pallet Town is like the backwoods of Kanto, and the protagonist is dressed like Kanto's version of a hick.
I always figured the towns were so close Pallet towners would head north to do their shopping. It would make sense that the clerk recognized Red, at least in passing, enough to know he wasn't a local.
well, to be fair, like 10 people total live in viridian city and pallet town combined. he probably doesn't get a lot of business.
@@Neo_Bones and
Mega Punching Lance's Dragonairs really takes me back. Used to do that with my Pikachu back in Pokemon Yellow.
Ending at Level 69 with 169 HP, honestly meant to be. The submission page should have that listed as a goal.

This guy is always so fast in mega man mario 64 like i subbed cuz of how good he is
You know it’s tas right?
This category is pretty insane to run RTA, because the requirement of filling 60 dex entries usually means you have to do a LOT of improvisation.
Very impressive. Heck of a run.
Remindes me i still have to take back pkmn fire red from my cousin from 12 years ago
RNG, Catch Rates, Crits, Wild Pokemon encounters. You can catch a Mewtwo full health with a pokeball. TAS dont care.
I like how you can literally ask for help from the rngods in this game

Didn't encounter any naturally, so I didn't need to worry about avoiding them

Rng manipulating a lucky egg chansy and giving it to clafable because you will need less crits so less text
Yes. Game Booster will also activate automatically when you launch games directly from your desktop, or through other game clients such as Steam.
一只皮可斯打爆全场😂
How did he catch all the pokemon with one pokeball even Pikachu?!!
RNG Manipulation, its a very real thing and this run shows off how broken it can be
This TAS guy is pretty good. He can speedrun every game...
@Zach wtf?
RNG Manipulation. Carefully crafted delays to make sure that the RNG values are appropriately low when the game performs the four shake checks
@@UnopenedClosurewhat?

This is the 69th comment. Nice.
What's the point of making a Pokemon TAS like for real.
Pretty lame imo
"What's the point of playing games like for real. Pretty lame imo"

iirc it’s to show case the best and fastest game beating route if rng was always prefect
Nice
