Well Gengar seems more frog like than I thought ghastly seems like a tadpole and haunter seems like the stage of a frog when they have a tail and a pair of legs
Oh my god. I’ve never respected your intelligence more. The strategies used, especially against Sabrina and Lance, are really impressive dude. Good on you!
Radical Red has you constantly making strategies to overcome hurdles. In Hardcore Mode, gym leaders have effects without needing to set them up and they never go away (for example Surge has constant electric terrain, Sabrina has constant trick room and Koga has constant tailwind). This makes it so you can't kill the trick room setter in the Sabrina battle because there is no trick room setter. I had to use some slow pokemon, set their Speed IV to 0 and give some of them Iron Balls to slow them down. Ended up using stuff like Selfdestruct Galvanize Alolan Golem paired with a Volt Absorb pokemon.
As the ghost king, I approve of the usage of Gastly and can confirm that they were in fact deceased frogs. You are very lucky you didn't get any dead Toxtricities.
13:10 damn right it is! Hippowdon with Sand Stream, Garchomp/Excadrill with Sandstorm-aided abilities, and then Mega Kangaskhan makes a really dangerous team for a Villain Boss Battle
I think I remember when I did this, I realized the problem was Excadrill had Sand Rush and my Ninetails didn't have Snow Warning. So to beat him, I made it so Ninetails has Snow Warning, and I think gave her Blizzard in the process. Excadrill just stood there confused I think since I don't remember it attacking my 4x weak to steel Ninetails while I just disrespected it with Blizzards in it's face like I was having a food fight at Dairy Queen.
@@themudkipmando4125 I did the same for gen 6, though it was also a ROM hack of XY. Obviously I played the Y version because of Yavultal. Still amazed I beat a triple battle Siebold with no grass or electric types in the first try. The best I had was Mega Zard Y's Drought and Solar Beam combo, and he had a Drizzle Politoad.
Hopkins is definitely MVP. She saved you in so many clutch moments, it really made me appreciate Toxicroak and see it as much more of a threat on a team rather than OHKOed to a Psychic move.
I remember watching the series for this play through and I am beyond excited to see the quick version also. Let's be honest though, any content from John is great content.
Respect the GHOST FROG'S! If you guys watched the stream, the frog's are a major part of this playthrough because without them, John couldn't even beat Brock, Respect the Ghost Frogs people.
Just started watching the video and I'm already in love- but I wanted to ask if you have any plans to add closed-captions to videos like this? I'm hearing, but was raised in a Deaf family, so it can be hard for me to process audio without captions-- plus, I know there are tons of HoH (Hard of Hearing) and Deaf people who would really benefit from it! (auto-generated captions work in a pinch, but they're not always accurate)
Iron Man (Tony Stark) vs Captain America (Steve Rogers) Bat Man (Bruce Wayne) vs Superman (Clark Kent) King Kong vs Godzilla Frogmen (John) vs Hail Man (Michael)
Radical read has primal Dialga and primal Paulkia, but legends Arceus has the true origin forms of them (which granted are still hilarious and awful, but they have their own hilarious charms to them)
The reason the single battle gym leaders have seemingly random pokemon that don't match up type wise (like Blaine's Venasaur or Claire's Magearna) is so that they can have a pivot pokemon for switching. Switching a fire type to another fire type means that the new pokemon is likely to be hit by a water type move, taking severe damage or being ohko-ed when coming in. If you have a grass pivot, then you can soak up the water move as not very effective damage and then switch to your fire type when the opponent goes to use a fire type move on your grass type. This means your new fire type only takes 1/2 damage when switching in instead of x2.
Toxtricity appears to be based on Agama lizards (which are brightly coloured and share the same spiky hairdo as Toxtricity), and/or tree frogs. Its overall appearance seems to be a Newt larva metamorphosing into a adult (since its spiky hair resembles gills) which may imply why it has the Poison type.
I can explain the “Above the level cap” one. You see, when you catch a dexnav Pokémon enough/use the dexnav to catch a Pokémon enough times, it’s search level increases and with that, it increases the chance of it being a higher level than usual. I experienced this with Lugia in my randomizer run. It’s usually level 13 but one was level 22.
The best move set that's good for a poison grass type 1. Sleep power 2. Leech seed 3. Giga drain 4. Grass attack move Step 1 immediately put it to sleep Step 2. If your low on health use leech seed Step 3. Use giga drain to gain back more health also do damage to you opponent 4. Repeat this until your good on health and then attack it and if it wakes up put it back to sleep And continue to attack it

I've heard people say that radical red isn't actually that hard, but those people have never tried to Nuzlocke hardcore mode, it's literally impossible without cheating unless you get the stars to align for all your RNG
...so am I the only one who just expects every video John always ends with "Can you beat 'X Pokemon Game' only using 'Y Team'? Yes. You. Can." to just have a random FEESH! at the end of it even if the video had nothing to do with Magikarp? XD
There's no way it's harder than intense mode of Rejuvenation or Reborn in general, if you're counting fangames. For ROMs, sure Radical Red, but nothing beats the stress inducing ultra hard fangames listed above
this video was a MOVIE
Exactly a great movie 😊👍
Daddy come down What the hell is that?😂😑
Can’t wait to die today :)

I love the types being showed next to each pokemon, it’s a nice touch plus it clarifies any changes they made.

I’m glad you did a recap of the entire series
"aight boys ima hop off" woulda been the perfect line for the end of the video
It's incredible, how much Purplecliffe has influenced you, my man.
The best move set that's good for a poison grass type
1. Sleep power
2. Leech seed
3. Giga drain
4. Grass attack move
Step 1 immediately put it to sleep
Step 2. If your low on health use leech seed
Step 3. Use giga drain to gain back more health also do damage to you opponent
4. Repeat this until your good on health and then attack it and if it wakes up put it back to sleep
And continue to attack it
Why not do a random location generator where you enter the pokémon center and come out at an elite 4 member and the first to complete the game wins
Whoever said it was now another gastly in 2:31 😭✋
I loved this so much,especially when '38' turned into 'a lot' under the number of whiteouts😂
I hope someone make a meme out of this which compares John's team and Mikey's and put it in Mikey's subreddit for Aspitapy
