Catching all Pokemon in Pokemon Black and white is a total nightmare. It took me literally 4 months to do it. Also, you deserve recognition from gamefreak to do such crazy challenges.
Its not possible anymore sadly, since there are dream world related medals that can no longer be obtained. Theres also one that requires you to connect with 29 other games at once which is also damn near impossible unless you have a lot of money to waste.
There are a few medals that are impossible and some that are nearly impossible. You have to pass by 1000 people using the c-gear and get 100 people in join Avenue. There is also everything to do with the dream world through global link which is no longer online which means 4 medals are unobtainable.
@@itzgladgatorgonegladitzmad9701 This is emulator only, and you'll need checkpoint + homebrew to copy your save file, but someone recently made it possible to tuck your pokemon in. That's one medal down. Another few involving catching pokemon in the entree forest requires the same thing, but also a save editor. The ladder is absolutely NOT legitimate, but I admit, it's nice to see the forest populated and I was happy to catch the Arceus I was robbed from as a kid (someone stole my PGL account).
7:18 it’s important to remember Glameow. It’s only available in Pearl by Gen 5. I completed the National Dex on B2 back in the day and I still remember having to buy a copy of Pearl for Glameow only.
It's actually available in White 2. There's a Funfest mission that replaces all Grotto Pokemon with Glameow. Idk why, but it does. In Black 2, it's instead a Stunky mission.
LunarRay ohhhhh yeah I never bought a copy of white 2. I usually buy both versions of a Gen but since that was the sequel I was good with just B2 pretty much, I forgot about that detail. I must’ve got Pearl because Route 218/222 would be faster or something
I hope he does! There are some now unobtainable because DW is bye-bye a go-go, but he still did the Ribbon one even though there are unobtainable ones too.

@@RandalfElVikingo But the BW national dex includes the Emerald National Dex as well as all Pokemon from DPPt and BW. The only reason it was so quick in this video is because he caught them before. Is there something I'm missing?
@@commentingcommenter1230 You can get like 208 Pokémon in one single copy of Emerald, but trading the remaining Pokémon is a whole different story if we're not counting the GameCube games. Trading is a slow way to fill a dex compared to transfer six of them in one blow.
@@RandalfElVikingo Fair point, there's also the fact that getting starters in those games is a pain too. I won't be testing it, but I wonder if trading is slower than 6 at a time transferring because of difference in Pokemon needed.
@@commentingcommenter1230 I forgot about the Johto starters, goddamn lol. Also, I forgot if Lugia and Ho Oh are required for the National Dex, that are also a pain to get without the GameCube games.
Every game that does this tends to follow this pattern: Beat Elite 4 and Champion Full National Dex Postgame battle facility (Tower/Subway, Frontier, Champions Tournament) Side activity (stuff like contests or Pokeathlon) (if there is any) Optional game-specific task (Entree, Underground...)
For those of us who come to these videos for the quick guide at a glance: Star Achievements: -exist. -See the credits once. -In Entralink, get your Black level and White level to Lv. 30 each. -Complete the National Pokedex. -Collect every single musical prop available in the game. -Defeat Ingo and Emmett in Battle 49 of the Super Single and Super Double formats in the Battle Subway. Card Colors: Tier 0: Teal w/ Red logo (1:44) Tier 1: Purple w/ Blue logo (2:42) Tier 2: Pink w/ Purple logo (5:37) Tier 3: Silver w/ Gold logo (8:26) Tier 4: Gold w/ Green logo (11:13) Tier 5: White w/ Black logo (14:00)
If anyone isn't sure about going to John's twitch, I cna honestly say he has some of the nicest viewers I've encountered on Twitch. His mods are funny and nice, his VIPS are chill and have made me laugh a ton, especially Wooffle and Sabrina. Also Bedavis is a legend for gifting 150 subs 😂 I can't wait for when John streams just because of the community around him ❤️
Quick thing for anyone just trying to get the National Dex done in the DS games: if you can connect your DS to the internet, there is a way to set your connection up so you can connect to a recreation of the GTS. It works really well and there's a website that you can search for trades, and see if your trade has been fulfilled by searching for the Pokemon you put up and looking for the one you did. The easiest way to get a compatible internet connection in my experience is, given your phone can do wireless hotspots, turn that on without a password and connect your DS to your phone's hotspot.
Would you consider doing this for B2W2? I'm not sure how different the cards are or if the challenges are much different either but I think a lot of us would love to see it!
Man, I've tried to complete all the pokéstar movies and I'm sure that the musical can be a walk in the park compared to how many times a movie is screwed up by a move that missed, a critical hit or the strange directions that sometimes are given.
Now, you just gotta do this in the japanese BW2... where Medal Rally is a requirement... jokes aside, BW2 isn't too terrible in the non japanese versions for 5 stars.
Gen 5 is the best. Not because it has the best story, or the most effort put into it, no no no. It's because you can put the phrase "IMPOSTER AMOONGUSS" on your Trainer Card.
Ngl i didnt even know the fact that i can change stuff on my trainer card in the menu lmao. Well you never stop learning. Great video, would love this to be a series!
I would really be interested in seeing a catch-em-all or some other challenge for a Mystery Dungeon game. Catch em all may be too boring though. In the Explorers of Darkness game, I noticed a lot of damaging items that you can throw, and I would be interested in seeing a play through where you only attack with items or maybe only items+basic attack? Idk I think a no-moves playthrough would be challenging and interesting to see!
I’ve always thought that it’d be cool if the trainer card colors are choosable. The stars could remain the same, but maybe someone likes that blue or red card they get at the start and not that gold card at the end. I feel like the stars alone would be enough to represent your accomplishments without being forced to be at a certain color.
Hey john, nice video! Would you consider the challenge of obtaining four (five?) Medals on Pokémon ranger guardian signs? I know that it's not a "canon" game but i consider it would be a fun challenge to take on (only bc i'm doing it and i don't want to be the only one to suffer)
Enjoyable as hell video, keep up the good work man, but you know you're only delaying the Black/White 2 Medal challenge right? At some point its time to bite the bullet and do it like only you can! :D
The Generation V games relied on the Dream World for all of the Pokémon you can't find on either BW or B2W2 and we saw how well that decision panned out now that the servers are gone: You NEED the Gen 4 games to complete the Dex, lots of Berries are straight up unaccessible, the Join Avenue went from extremely useful to dead weight and the achievement medals in B2W2 are straight up impossible to complete.
For april fools 2022 you should make one of these for sword/shield, there's only 7 stars and you have 5 after beating leon lmao, the last 2 are for beating isle of armor and galarian star tournament
hey John i could not help but notice i have never seen a gen 3 ruby sapphire and emerald trainer card star........challenge from you I saw you did a pokemon fire red and leafgreen for gen 3 hoever ruby sapphire and emerald have very different star requirements then firered and leafgreen plz consider trying that challenge!
I literally never knew this was a thing until I saw your videos, but now I want to do that myself! Problem is I no longer have my gba and never had a DS, I played every game until X&Y on an emulator. How easy is this supposed to be using an emulator?(not only on these games but also the 3rd generation games)
Hearing John's more 'professional' voice is so weird after watching him cry in agony over losing legendaries in his Nuzlocks for hours.
this lol
It throws me off lol. His voice in these videos sounds so much... deeper, even?
I know right!
Same
Okay now I’m interested in Twitch John
The difference between Twitch John and UA-cam John is still hilarious to me.

Every game that does this tends to follow this pattern:
Beat Elite 4 and Champion
Full National Dex
Postgame battle facility (Tower/Subway, Frontier, Champions Tournament)
Side activity (stuff like contests or Pokeathlon) (if there is any)
Optional game-specific task (Entree, Underground...)
For those of us who come to these videos for the quick guide at a glance:

What about the red trainer card? What does that mean cuz I run around the game with it
Considering how much time John has spent in black and white due to the Nuzlocke, something about this video is a bit more amusing.
Every time I'm reminded musicals exist, the more I'm baffled

poggers we got main channel johntent
There was so much about Pokemon that young me just didnt know existed. Kinda wish I had better access to info like this back then.
Thank you for subjecting yourself to this challenge. You have my respect Johnstone

Someone mentioned in Werster's chat if there was a 100% speedrun of a Pokemon game and he got really angry at chat lol
You made Lord John proud with your musical prowess.
Now, you just gotta do this in the japanese BW2... where Medal Rally is a requirement... jokes aside, BW2 isn't too terrible in the non japanese versions for 5 stars.
Love these videos John next: how easy can you get every medal in black/white 2?
Damn, I forgot about this series I absolutely loved
You should have used Lord John for the musicals.
This is the type of content that keeps us awake until 4am
I’ve got my first and as of yet only 5-Star Trainer Card (so the Black trainer card) in Black 2

Now have Platinum as well😁
Gen 5 is the best. Not because it has the best story, or the most effort put into it, no no no. It's because you can put the phrase "IMPOSTER AMOONGUSS" on your Trainer Card.

11:17 - 5th "Star" The Battle Subway (Black & White Card)
as much as I don't like Black's exclusive Pokemon, I gotta admit, they got one sick 5 star trainer card..
