    Technically, for 28:50, your trainer ID did matter in HGSS and FRLG for shiny odds. Long story short, your TID and SID being very specific numbers would dictate how a shiny would spawn when you had a Cute charm mon in the 1st slot of your party. The process to get the right set was a headache, and it only effected mons with gender. What you would get, though, is an exponential increase in shiny encounters that was in the realm of 1/20 (If memory serves) with the opposite gender of the Cute charm mon in your party.

    Slightly untrue: the happiness stat in Yellow affected *one* other thing. It was still pikachu's stat that did it, but the bulbasaur wouldn't agree to join your team unless you were above a certain value.
    I found the Alpha reaction one out by accident, just because I had only caught one ground type when he asked.
    I wish I'd known earlier because I would have gone hard trying to get them all alpha/shinies. (so far I have a male and female alpha shiny Luxray, and a Lucario. Working on more)
    The shiny spot is locked, the pokemon is rolled on the encounter point. So theoretically you can just reset until it's the pokemon you want again. It's also why you should immediately save when you spot the shiny sparkles.

Because I don't have a Tornadus in the game. And I saw that cloud background for the first time after hatching a Noibat from a 10 km egg sometime last year.

    Here is a VERY obscure and bizarre Pokemon fact:
    Did you know that the Pokemon move "Follow Me" still remains in effect even if you faint the mon who used it PRIOR to targeting a mon on the field that did not?
    Basically in double/triple battles (in gen 3 for sure I know) if the enemy uses Follow Me, you faint them, and target the mon adjacent to them BEFORE they use the move (ie, before anyone attacks), and the enemy sends out a replacement for the Follow Me user that fainted, you will STILL be forced into attacking the sot of the mon that just used Follow Me.

      So interesting how that fact that most flying types are part normal is the reason Larry is both a Normal AND Flying type trainer. Being one of the few trainers in the series who focuses on two types (of those that focus on a specific type). Bede is another as he starts off with Psychic types before changing to Fairy, but as he uses Galarian Rapidash and Hatterine and Gardevoir, who are ally Psychic/Fairy, he too is a rare Dual type trainer. and Raihan who is the only type specific trainer that uses a strategy rather than a type that just happens to work with Dragons. I like that they're being more creative with the type match ups. Tulip is VERY clever as she looks like a Fairy type and uses a Fighting type as her challenger almost DARING you to bring a dark type, yet she's a Psychic type gym leader, but ALL of her pokemon have answers to dark type. Making her arguably one of the smartest gym leaders in the series. Even her Tera mon is a Fairy type by default.

    The wallpaper for flying types is based on the Pokémons first listed typing, which is why we didn't have it show up before Tornadus since every other flying type had flying as their secondary typing. Currently, in Pokémon go, we also have Noibat, Noivern, and Bomberdier with the Flying type background like Tornadus :)

    This is a really good video, and I’m sure you are also proud of the numbers it is pulling in terms of views!
    One small criticism if I may offer, is the plosive sounds of your microphone. It’s a little difficult listening to the audio with a good headset, due to the ‘P’ and ‘B’ sounds. You are probably using a microphone guard already but it might be too close to the microphone. I have really bad plosives due to the way I speak, so I pretty much have to keep the guard a few inches from the microphone at all times, so I understand the pain.
