6:00 the IVs could potentially make the RNG requirements even worse: if the Zigzagoon is -Speed with low IV and the Ralts is +Speed with high IV, it’s possible for the two to be speedtied, so you’d need to also win the coinflip on turn 2
This TAS guy sounds insane. No wonder why he's not allowed on the speedrun records Btw crit qclaw isn't under 1%, it's just over at 1.25% (0.0625×0.2)×100
I thought this too. But hes counting the quick claw crit AND the hit prior being small enough to not proc the berry. So 1.25% slapped off the side of another maybe 50 or 60 drops the 1.25 to like 0.75 or some such
Honestly I'm so impressed that human runs are so close to the TAS. Only about a 25 minute difference ? 25 seconds can be a huge deal in speedrunning, but for an rngfest like Pokemon I was expecting the TAS to be able to chop off an hour at least.
Honestly I don't see why pokémon would save that much more time when the tas doesn't move any faster than a human and most of the time save comes from crits/insane rng
@@Dragostorm21TAS is always designed for optimal gameplay. These are theoretically possible for humans, depending on inputs per second the TAS is allowed. In the Mario community, TAS discovered a wrong warp that requires Mario to backwards short hop into a wall to displace Mario’s screen position and simultaneously save time on a full stop jump. It was deemed humanly impossible, until an easier way to pull it off was discovered and the trick became staple in all world records. What’s impressive is when the TAS sets the legal record, and the human time is as close as it is for these games.
@@LocalMaple what does that have to do with anything I said? Edit: I meant that pokémon doesn't have much time to save besides on the strats themselves, where it gets insane rng. That isn't that much compared to literally just walking
@@Dragostorm21 It’s just that your comment of “big whoop” was like saying “so what if a mechanical paddle boat crossed the 10 mile wide sea a mere 20 minutes faster than a human.” That actually means the human rowers were within a couple mph of optimal travel. It’s the fact that humans are so close to perfection that makes it impressive. And you said “Honestly I don’t see [why this is impressive],” while giving examples of why it’s so impressive.
@@LocalMaple "so close", while giving mario as an example (mario 64 is less than a second from the tas). Having said that, I will agree that I undervalued this tas a little and overlooked overworld encounters as a way tas can get extra timesave in the overworld. But I stand by what I said: pokémon tasing has less ways to save time a lot of other speedruns since you basically only save time on the strategy portion (a nd a little on not using repels), which leaves most of the walking (which is at least half of the run) almost equal to a human run. And the runs aren't really comparable at all since all the strats rely on insane rng, unlike with Mario where you can learn the inputs at some point. With pokémon without extra discoveries the only way this happens is if someone is willing to grind, which isn't as impressive imo. Having said all of that, I don't want to sound overly rude or entirely disagree that it is an impressive speedrun. I just feel that pokémon isn't a comparable speedrun to most other common speed games due to the insane rng being the major time save, and thus should be appreciated more for it's rng abuse rather than human comparasons. And the fact that the insane rng saves as little time is indeed quite amazing, to the point that I wonder what a human equivalent run would actually be able to save. Kinda like the human equivalent runs of other tases.
Thank you for noting that humans create the TASes. A lot of people think our work is done by bots, and while a lot of that may be true, we create those bots in the first place. Plus you don't need those bots to make a great TAS. They're for really complicated stuff (unfortunately gen 3 pokemon is one of them. I've seen the explanation on tikevin83's channel and I would dread having to deal with what they deal with)
4:36 Whats crazy is I’m sure we ALL felt that tapping b to speed things up would make you miss a bunch of times in a row, or miss catching a Pokémon, but back then it just felt crazy to think that. Turns out its TRUE
@@obiwancannoli1920 A UA-camr/Streamer named PokémonChallenges spent the better part of a year trying to nuzlocke a difficult ROM hack called Emerald Kaizo. During his winning attempt, he got an iconic Taillow named Pilot, which is a 1% chance to get early game because it's overpowered. Pilot ended up carrying a lot of the run, sweeping several difficult fights including both Brawly and Watson. Flannery is the biggest run killer in the first half of this game, and Swellow hit an 87.5% damage roll to OHKO her Blaziken, and ended up sweeping 5 of her 6 Pokémon, and hence "Pilot hit an 87.5% range on Flannery" became a meme.
TAS runs are always amazing and the theoretically perfect run is so fascinating every time, even if they follow the same route as the normal runs but expertly executed.
@@ultimaterecoil1136 That only ever happens when someone discovers new tricks which drastically change the route and save a lot of time, and then RTAs get to bank that time-save first because TASes take a while to make. But RTAs never stay in front for very long, and as soon as someone makes a new TAS incorporating the newer strats, the TAS takes the lead again.
The fact that he called it a "coverage move" and then talked about Swellow's moves "now only being resisted by steel" implies that he genuinely thought this was true, instead of him simply saying the wrong move but meaning something else. This mistake puzzles me, because it's very easy to check what TM she gives, and where you get the Steel Wing TM.
The "two occurrences" Pulse references are not quick claw proc + crit. They are "live Rock Throw in Torrent and deal the highest damage that doesn't trigger Berry" turn 1 and "quick claw proc + crit" turn 2.
GameFreak, I've never been so happy for your tomfoolery and hilarious mischief when designing Pokemon games. WHY WOULD YOU GIVE THE CHAMPION'S AGGRON, A POKEMON WITH 60 SP ATTACK, THUNDER?! I don't know why, but thanks for doing that. You made this run possible.
It's honestly worse than that: Steven's Aggron also has the moves dragon claw (which is special in gen3), solar beam, and earthquake. Basically, it has no STAB moves and 3 of it's 4 attacks are special for some weird reason
It's always felt like GameFreak intended there to be a Phys/Special Split, but either never had time to implement it, couldn't figure out how, or just put it off, as SO MANY early gen Pokemon just don't make sense without it.@@matthewkuscienko4616

Regular runs used to use the Abra trick for getting back to Petalburg, but now days we skip the Abra, get poisoned in Flannery's gym and knock ourselves out.
That is wrong, it's quite literally the opposite. Runs only fairly recently started getting Abra in Sapphire. Having Abra saves time in movement, makes Flannery less of a troll, because said poison was unreliable to get from Smog, and makes Tate & Liza more consistent.

If Slaking clicks Fuh-Kaw-Dee on Skar-Maurie, due to Steel's resistance to Normal and Skar-Maurie's Sturdy ability, it will survive and can freely Whirlwind Slaking out while it's affected by True-Ont.
Sturdy doesn't work like this in Gen 3. Skarmory could tank the hit, sure, but Sturdy didn't guarantee survival like the focus sash did until the 5th generation. Back in Gen 3 it's one of the worst abilities, blocking the OHKO moves that no one uses.
I'm hoping this is a mistake, but the rival teams shown at 4:48 are not done at the same time! Brendan's is done at Route 110, and May's is done at Route 119. I checked Bulbapedia (the website you must've used to get the screenshots) and the teams for both rivals are the same in the Route 110 and Route 119 fights. It would be pretty crazy if they differed that much, considering the levels and movepools! I'm pretty sure that the reason why May is chosen in speedruns is because the rivals have different dialogue, and Brendan's dialogue is shorter than May's. I could be wrong, but I remember hearing that somewhere. It's not because one's easier to fight than the other. :)
The screenshot is wrong, but the info is correct. While the fights might look the same, there are subtle differences that are big enough to make May the better choice.
PChal fans (and many challenge runners) know the power of Taillow! In Emerald Kaizo, Taillow is a phenomenal encounter for a nuzlocke. Basically any pokemon with Guts is, as you can always burn or poison against a wild pokemon and just keep that status condition for hard battles.
Beating the elite 4 at the end while being level 50 is actually insane my best is one level 47 and it wasn’t even close to a speed run just nuzlock. I super sonic glitched it but with more time a dream eater slacking strat was discovered in my category and basically broke the nuzlock

Love the forbidden memories background. Question. Does the TAS only work on inputs, like, is this run what an actual person told it to prioritize, or did the system play this with its own idea? Like some vids where they have AI try and play pokemon.
@PulseEffects well I remembered some videos similar to that but the AI was horrible. Makes me wonder in the future if AI gets better could we end up seeing an unobtainable record to beat held by AI
I’ve had him ko raltz twice in normal play. Around 40 runs 😂 not the craziest luck but still. I remember wondering if he would have them at the gym spoiler they do
Very cool video. I don't really play pokemon and I was still able to understand all of this super easily. P.S. what's the song that plays from 15:03 to the end?
are there any points where the tas can’t rng manip? with the way rng works in rse, there have to be certain randomly-generated events that are mutually exclusive, especially when accounting for multiple randomized events. so maybe x and y could both happen in a seed, but there’s no seed where x, y, and z happen, you have to choose between x/z, y/z, x/y. if so, what useful rng’s sacrificed?
There are definitely some things that are impossible. For example, if you have a team of 6 zigzagoons, there is no rng value that yields 6 rare candies, and only 2 values that yield 5
Is it even remotely possible for a human to do some of this rng minipulation? Like if they have the software that shows the rng rolls could they hit the buttons at the right times in order to get a few of the necessary crits? I wonder if anyone has tried, but I imagine itt would be a rather punishing learning curve and I don't know if the rng mapping software is even allowed on official speedruns...
My autistic ass was accidentally rng manipulating a shiny ralts on several of my runs when I was young because I just happened to perform everything exactly the same so yes
@@ultimaterecoil1136 Whoah really? If nobody has done it in a non-tas speed running context then *my* autistic ass might have a project ahead of me haha
@@dariascott2267 I’m not sure for speed running in particular. The most common context people rng manipulated in gen 3 was catching legends with proper competitive ivs natures that sort of thing for vgc and stuff. And it’s worth noting that rng manipulating something early game is way easier then rng manipulating something late in the game for speed run purposes since turning your game off and back on to reset rng would be a time loss so you’d need to keep on a exact line of play for an extended period of time. Me getting my shiny ralt squad is a lot easier then for example critting every attack vs Steven. You can maybe rng manip a perfect starter which would help I suppose
The main issue is holding RNG for long periods and finding seeds fast enough to be worthwhile. Like a human COULD save and soft reset before every major fight to snag a turn 1 crit/miss/capture but the question is if it's faster. HGSS does (did? I can't remember if extended Manip is possible rta now) Manip it's Raikou encounter with a soft reset because that is worth, for example. The TAS doesn't need to soft reset and doesn't miss RNG windows, so it's all upside.
"may is chosen to make the rival fights much easier" 4:48 What? You've shown two entirely different encounters on two different routes. This is just blatantly false.

I swear it's pilotredsun
Can I blacklist any video that has a Raid sponsor somehow
its pilot 🐐
TAS really has that pokemon streamer luck
5:30 odds are so high? lol
Enjoyed the video, but it feels the pace was not smooth, leaving the impression the last bit was rushed. Still an awrsome video!
Do somebody know the name of the song at 12:48 ?
5:34 you mean lower :D
Does this have to do with glacia 0:26
genuine critique: you change music a lot and it's kinda distracting
cool video tho :D
Hi can you do the shiny gold sigma version 1.5.1 speed run? With hoeen region pokemon League
2 minute ad, jesus man you've sold your soul
Is it even remotely possible for a human to do some of this rng minipulation? Like if they have the software that shows the rng rolls could they hit the buttons at the right times in order to get a few of the necessary crits? I wonder if anyone has tried, but I imagine itt would be a rather punishing learning curve and I don't know if the rng mapping software is even allowed on official speedruns...
My autistic ass was accidentally rng manipulating a shiny ralts on several of my runs when I was young because I just happened to perform everything exactly the same so yes
@@ultimaterecoil1136 Whoah really? If nobody has done it in a non-tas speed running context then *my* autistic ass might have a project ahead of me haha
@@dariascott2267 I’m not sure for speed running in particular. The most common context people rng manipulated in gen 3 was catching legends with proper competitive ivs natures that sort of thing for vgc and stuff. And it’s worth noting that rng manipulating something early game is way easier then rng manipulating something late in the game for speed run purposes since turning your game off and back on to reset rng would be a time loss so you’d need to keep on a exact line of play for an extended period of time. Me getting my shiny ralt squad is a lot easier then for example critting every attack vs Steven. You can maybe rng manip a perfect starter which would help I suppose
The main issue is holding RNG for long periods and finding seeds fast enough to be worthwhile.
Like a human COULD save and soft reset before every major fight to snag a turn 1 crit/miss/capture but the question is if it's faster. HGSS does (did? I can't remember if extended Manip is possible rta now) Manip it's Raikou encounter with a soft reset because that is worth, for example.
The TAS doesn't need to soft reset and doesn't miss RNG windows, so it's all upside.
@@Bladius_I think it was werster who once was running that, thought he'd screwed it up, got the roaming encounter music anyway... but it was Entei.
As soon as I see frame manip i'm out. It's cool how they figure it out but it's so boring to me.
Wow I'm early
Didn't expect that XD
Yay
I fucking hate Raid.
"may is chosen to make the rival fights much easier" 4:48
What? You've shown two entirely different encounters on two different routes. This is just blatantly false.
Ah I see I put the wrong image on one of the Rivals. Information is still correct otherwise.
I almost gave up on watching this video cause there were simply too many unskippable adds
Why does every streamer sell out to raid?
Of course it's a TAS.
I could do the perfect run blindfolded without TAS
Its not perfect yet
Dislike because gacha game ad
Not just a gacha game ad, an obnoxiously long gacha game ad
0:06 says 3% chance...and then shows 4% on screen.
unreal, man. unreal.
instantly already not liking this video, channel, or YOU.
dislike.
3.8% is not 4% lmao.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Google translate remove almost all of the "O" XD
Really, raid shadow legends. Have some self respect
