    Fun Fact: Krabby is the only NFE Pokemon in Gen 1 that you can actually solo the game with without catching a single other Pokemon (without abusing glitches to perform major skips). Krabby is one of only 4 Pokemon (Krabby, Kingler, Lickitung, and Mew) which can learn all mandatory HM moves needed to complete the game (Cut, Surf, Strength), and it's the only NFE mon among them.

      @@MrEnte3000 Crabhammer is way better, at least for fighting Agatha specifically. It has a boosted critical hit rate so for krabby it's critting almost 80% of the time. It's so much better at beating Agatha than that ridiculous mimic hypnosis then try to get good sleep luck over many turns when you can just try to get enough crits to win. For general use, consistency is nice, but krabby's special is so weak that you need luck to win and crabhammer's is better than JRose's ridiculous strategy.

      The issue is that Jrose does "scouting attempts" "actual attempts" and "exp Grinding". So it'd be hard to make it consistent. Though I do agree it would make sense and give an idea of just how consistent things are.

    Krabby is actually based on a samurai crab or a sand bubbler crab, although they would definitely both dig in real life, especially the one named after the sand it digs. Dwebble is based more on a hermit crab - hermit crabs don't have shells of their own, so they use abandoned shells or rocks they hollow out or even sometimes garbage they find as their shells. I do believe all crabs dig, though, which is one of the main functions of their claws aside from offense and defense.

      I'd argue no, unless you're giving it Dig before getting the TM in Cerulean which is giga-cheating. I forgot if Ghastly really struggled anywhere, but Krabby loses quite a bit of time early and then has to spend time backtracking for Fly and Erika. I mean I guess with Dig you could beat Surge but it's certainly not consistent, it's just whether he clicks TBolt or not. Plus Agatha still isn't 100%, because Krabby is slower.

      I guess I understand why he deleted it now, although it wasn’t explained too well. Since he is relying on badge boost glitch, I believe a critical hit would ignore the boosts. Still, with 3 badge boosts, that is only a 42% increase where the critical should be close to double.

    You say that levelling up against Agatha isn't effective because you'd need to be very high to outspeed, but surely reducing the amount of Surfs it takes to defeat a Gengar would also make it much easier, reducing the amount of turns that they have to stay asleep

    I dunno about this one's ranking
    Like, I'm used to you playing more for consistency rather than just continuously resetting for luck. That's why you do the whole E4 in one go. And yet here, with Lorelei and Bruno as consistent as they were, you may as well have just been saving in front of Agatha and resetting that over and over again. Sure, as you say at 38:36, levelling up wouldn't really help until level 70-something, but with previous pokemon you have done that. That's how there's so many level 80 somethings on the board. That's how Pidgey hit level 90. Not to mention that outspeeding the first Gengar wasn't the only issue you were running into. As small of special increases that a level up would give you, they'll add up to less surfs needed to take down the Gengars and Haunter, which is then less worry over PP as well.
    Sorry that one of my only comments on this series is a criticism of this length, I love the videos, it's just the sheer amount of Agatha losses this time around felt more like an actual lottery than she normally is

    I think Krabby should have been penalized a lot more in its tier placement for how much it struggled at various points, and it felt like you should have just levelled up more with it at the end instead of brute forcing getting lucky against Agatha. If it would have took Krabby until well into the 70s to get through Agatha with any more consistency like you claimed, then so be it, it would be a more accurate portrayal of how much it takes to get "consistent" with Krabby than banking on such low odds to actually win.

    Krabby can learn all of the required hm's (cut/surf/strength), so it's possible to literally beat the game with only krabby. It's a fun challenge for anyone to try, but I don't think it'd make for a great video because the strategy for the last half of the game is basically just level up. But maybe an optimized "what's the lowest level you can beat R/B with just a krabby" could be kinda interesting

    Crabhammer is a move like Slash, which has a high crit ratio. So even though on paper it's a weaker and less accurate surf, in practice it has 180 Base Power for the cost of accuracy and not being affected by special badge boosts. Probably would've made an even dumber lottery of a fight but might've made it a lot faster!

I’ve only just started and so far it’s really fun. (Although one big difference is I’m actually evolving the Pokémon, my mental state could probably not go through the game with nothing but a larvesta or sewaddle and a lot of the other pretty poor pre evolutions)

    I wonder if you could have taught Mimic over Body Slam for Agatha? Then you'd have access to 9 badge boosts instead of just 3, and after Agatha is beaten with a more powerful surf, you could learn Strength for Lance/Champion. Strength is obviously less powerful (80 base power instead of 85), but since SD makes your attack insanely high anyways, it probably would still be enough to one-shot everything. The real question is whether 9 badge boosts would be enough of a boost to consistently take out Agatha's whole team with it, but I think it'd be worth a test!

    Krabby is one of my favourites to tackle Gen 1 with, as it learns cut, strength and surf. So I can actually complete the game without catching anything and with a pokedex count of 1 at the end. I can't remember what 4th move I used, I think it was Ice Beam to get through Lance, then Mimic to get through the Rival battle at the end
