Fun fact: endless does have an end, at floor 5850, however around floor 3000 actual damage starts being insignificant, so you need DoT and things like Metal Burst.
-Rare Candies are the sole way to bypass level cap before it raises -Gym leaders start at either floor 20 or 30, then every 30 floors after that -Pickup says "may pick up an item". It actually WILL pick up one item, if the enemy Pokemon has one. -Luck doesn't affect the rarity of the free items. It affects the chance that they upgrade to a higher rarity. and the upgrade can happen multiple times and for multiple items, which is why higher luck usually results in better final rolls.

Bosses don't actually have multiple HP bars that scale exponentially. They're more like one-time health thresholds that reduce insufficient damage and grant a buff when reached/passed. Explanation: Say a boss has 3 health thresholds at 25%, 50% and 75%. You attack it with a move that would normally do 70% damage. Their health decreases past the 75% and 50% thresholds, but isn't enough to reach/pass the 25% threshold, so the damage gets reduced to the 50% threshold. The boss then gains 2 buffs from you hitting the 75% and 50% thresholds. The 75% and 50% thresholds are then nullified so their effects can't happen again. Say the boss heals to full health and you hit it for 70% damage again. Since the 75% and 50% thresholds have been nullified, the boss drops to 30% health and doesn't gain any buffs.
While bosses don't have multiple "full" hp bars like he stated in the video, the segments they have do scale exponentially if they are depleted in one move. The Pokerogue wiki explicity states they are exponential (listed under the "mechanics" tab. However, once broken, the damage needed is the same as a normal non boss pokemon.
Each threshold is a x2 damage required to break through it so if a boss has like 8 thresholds which means 9 health parts you need to deal 256 health parts worth of damage (more than 28 times its entire healthbar) to oneshot it And oneshoting is important cause of the endure token cause if you oneshot the opposing pokemon can never endure with the endure token

Awesome video! I love the Tinkaton Eternatus farming strat too. I've been using it since my first run with Tinkaton. I will say, for anyone who wants to use the strat, one way to improve the Tinkaton Covet Eternatus farm is to put the Multi-Lens on Tinkaton. Each hit with Covet has a chance to steal an item and activate your Grip Claws too, so you could potentially steal 8 items on one turn with the 3 max Multi-Lens. I actually reached the max 99 Dragon Fangs on my PB endless run for my Raging Bolt. At that point, even a Dragon Pulse is ultra powerful.
Haha, nice, I never thought about using Multi Lens with Covet, I was using it with Ancient Power and Primal Groudon on my first normal run where I finally beat floor 200.
Technician Meowth with Fakeout and Payday was the Pokemon that first carried me to lvl 100 too. Fun game that made me think more about Pokemon and moves that I basically never used in actual Pokemon games cause I'm casual.
I was not expecting PointCrow's strategy to be the same exact one i happened to be using in my own Endless run, except im using Kyurem-White, who also has Dragon Energy as an egg move. Stealing all the dragon fangs is the funniest thing and the sheer damage it deals is hilarious even as all the enemies in late game endless become impossible to kill normally.
To those new to pokerogue, this strategy no longer works. Eternatus now has flamethrower and will obliterate Tinkaton. Also Rayquaza was nerfed. My current strategy is Kyogre(Main)+Leafeon(Red Shiny and Sappy Seed+Pickup)+Garganacl(Red Shiny and Salt Cure+Sturdy+Recover+Extra Healing)+3 Red shinies. Edit for Elcebollon: My current strategy needs Sappy seed/leech seed but I'll take a look at Pachirisu for my Electric Monotype run. I'm currently trying to get at least one level of shiny for kyogre so I can replace one of the red shinies for my blue shiny ribombee which has honey gather. That way, I get honey gather and I still have max luck
@@elcebollon7750 Sappy seed is extremely useful for beating Eternatus with Garganacl alongside sturdy, recover, salt-cure, and the fact that he usually uses Eternabeam which has a turn needed for recharge. I am trying to get Kyogre at least one shiny level because then I could substitute one of the red shinies with my blue shiny ribombee with honey gather and still hit the luck cap. I'll definitely take a look at pachirisu though.

While Tinkaton doesn't work anymore, A pokemon with Steel as it's primary type being fused with a Well Baked Body Dachsbun can do the same thing Tinkaton and other fairy steels used to. Just requires a little more luck. Endure can also be used to always survive Eternabeam while still forcing a Recharge turn on Eternatus. It will also always use Eternabeam against a healthy dragon type that's weak to dragon. I made use of these two facts by putting Endure on my Mega Latios plus shell bells and Enigma and Sitrus berries to heal up before it could fire off the next Eternabeam, and strike with Luster Purge with multi-lens (which was recently reworked) on the recharge turns. Luster Purge's 50% chance to drop the target's Special Defense is especially helpful here as it stops the fight from going too long on E-Max Eternatus floors. I beat the floor 750 and 1000 Eternatus fights this way on the endless run I'm on (it is my first endless run also). The recent nerf to Endure tokens that stops them from activating more than once per pokemon certainly helps. It might be that you don't even need to heal up if eternatus always clicks Eternabeam even if your dragon type is at one HP. But I'm just saying what i know for sure.
@PointCrow Hiiiiii!!!! It’s your driver from “The Sauce” convention. I hung out with my son today and I was telling him that I met you. He loves your content and like I thought, yes he knows you! He was blown away that I, his Mom got to actually meet you and talk to you. I was telling him that you’re so down to earth and just hella cool. He could not believe me. 😂 he was looking like this 😮. So I wanted to tell you that he makes gaming music for fun. Thanks for being so kind. Tracy 😊
Small correction to 3:45: It’s only random when you get your first gym leader (50/50 between floor 20 or 30). The rest of the gym leaders are always 30 floors after the previous.
I did some damage calcs by hand for the Roaring Moon battle at 17:04. Assuming it had 31 Spec Def IVs and a Spec Def boosting nature while you got a low damage roll, Rayquaza did a minimum of 7,381 damage. I can't take the number of Dragon Fangs into account because they weren't shown on screen at the time. EDIT: I rewatched and saw you hadn't refought Eternatus in between Roaring Moon and showing that you had 29 dragon fangs, so I redid the damage taking the 29 dragon fangs into account. In that case, Rayquaza did a minimum of 46,363 damage.
Oh wow, was not expecting Nuadha's theme from Mabinogi during the final Eternatus fight!!! Fking mad respect for you now!!! And just, wow, an EPIC video all around!!! I have been loving you play through these fan-made Pokemon games recently and it has been so amazing watching you go!!! Keep it up! 🎉
Im so glad to have been here through the beginning of your streams to now and, honestly it gets better and better, Eric! Thank you so much for helping to bring smiles and fun to this community!! ❤❤❤
Love this great video, when selecting you team some pokemon have a purple box round them. Pokerus it increases Exp gains and will spread to the other pokemon in your team. This made a massive difference to my runs thank you for the shinny and item pick up info.
It's because tokens stack to 999 each, which is how much tokens enemies would have at floor 5850. once you beat the pokemon on floor 5850, the game tries to give more tokens to the pokemon like usual, but since the stacks are maxed, it can't add them and just freezes (or now in newer version it just ends). People managed to get past 5850 due to starting their attempt at a point where getting to 5850 started a second stack of both damage tokens and resistance tokens, so the game didn't get stuck trying to add more as there was another stack it could add them to.
The roguelike elements of this game combined with the raid boss mechanics of the dynamax adventures plus add like megas to the boss pool and you might have the best multiplayer Pokémon experience ever
There’s a broken start if u have a toucannon with beak blast and a multi hit lens it will infinitely attack any boss pokemon without activated any berries or ending the move
Small correction Fake out with stab has a 90 basepower 40 to 60 and then stab on the 60 as the bonusses in pokemon are Additive so its the 50% bonuses on the total. And stab gets calculated last.
This is the standard way to play endless. He's missin some of the big hitters like giving his salt cure pokemon soak(turns typing to water so the saltcure does more dmg,) and leech seed. Or his overleveled pokemon night shade/seismic toss, can also do counter+mirror coat or metal burst (depending on your speed.) Can also put super fang on your runaway mon, lotta cool stuff you can do. But all of this mostly comes into play in the later floors of endless, after where he decided to quit. I personally like to get an endless run set up with shiny charms ready for a shiny weekend event, load it up, farm abit over the event, maybe start a 2nd run, then sit on it until next shiny event. Either way, super fun game.
The actual way to win Endless is to make it to 5850. The game just kinda stops loading floors once you hit it so you should do just one more run. Awesome vid. 😁
At first i was like "Nah i dont see what is so great about it" And then....i have over 48 hours, and endless save going at 1500+ wave with 4 shiny charms...this is so addictive and since is a browser game I can keep grinding while im at work lol
Ive been following this channel for a loooong time. You are definitely one of my greatest inspirations to become a poketuber myself. Great work as always. Keep it up🦆
@@ot-slice295 It is if you're playing endless to get new unlocks. I picked up 3 ability charms and as a result was blessed with a Multiscale Lugia in the wild.
4:29 I love the "Technician raises the moves bp by 50%, so fake-out (40bp) becomes a whoppin' 80bp!!!!" math (edit: even with the stab bonus it becomes 90)
@@Jp63a STAB is 1.5x, and so is Technician, though they apply at different points in the damage formula. Technician multiplies the base power of a move by 1.5x, whereas STAB multiplies the final damage by 1.5x.
To be honest, he didn't break it... He essentially used the meta strategies everyone in endless uses and only made it to floor 1000. That Rayquaza would be essentially useless starting somewhere between stages 2500-3000 because of the stacking damage reduction the enemies get. You eventually have no choice but to play a Sturdy+Metal Burst mon to beat the bosses every 50 stages. Personally I am not a fan of how limiting it gets at that point, but the devs are currently working on revamping endless so that it is not a solved mode with only 1 viable strategy.
This video feels like a cool little time capsule for old pokerogue because things like crow's eternatus stat don't work anymore The main reasons being Eternatus now knows flamethrower so the only way you could be invincible is by getting dna splicers with a dachsbun and something that would result in a steel/fairy type with well baked body Leppa berry limit was reduced from 10 to 2 And a lot more things
My strat is using zigzagoon and shedinja and DNA splicing them together. It ends up with covet, extreme speed, shadowball and you can teach it a fairy move before combining them to deal with dark types. Also when nincada evolves it doubles the items it's holding, which helps in the early game.
I have now beat the game 4 times, and I don’t want to stop any time soon Rougelikes have a way of consuming my life, I got Ror2 over spring break and have over 50 hours on it already
Just a teensy lil explainer on the difference of rogueLIKE vs rogueLITE, cause you sain that unlocking Pokemon for future runs was a roguelike feature. Meta progression is strictly a roguelite thing, where your "account" gets stronger over time. The roguelike part is just a normal run, where the runs you're going on are random. Anyways, glad to see you're getting addicted to this as much as everyone has been the past couple of weeks XD Just wanted to clarify that little bit of lexicon that honestly a lot of people misuse (which is super fair cause it's supremely niche, lol)
10 soul dew make the negetive stat into just 1. it would've been even more op if it was 0, assuming pokerouge would have the same reaction to having 0 defense as normal pokemon games and just do 1 damage no matter what
Fun fact, this interaction is extremely important for ACTUALLY breaking endless mode, as Metal Burst + sturdy is the Go-to combo for doing so, as eventually the pokemon get enough Damage Reduction tokens to take 1 damage from all conventional attacks, and get enough Damage boost tokens to OHKO all of your pokemon even if they're massively overleveled, and Metal Burst is basically like if Counter and Mirror coat were combined, but didn't have negative priority. If metal burst is used before your opponent attacks, it will just fail, so having 1 speed is ideal with it!
I like pokerogue because it is simple enough that someone like me who hasn't played a single Pokémon game can still beat the game after a few tries Edit: a ONE IN 64 CHANCE OF BEING A SHINY??? It took me over 150 shiny up eggs to get a single one
they are 1/64 from the shiny up machine. that machine however is the worst one to get pokemon from. early game, you want to use the legendary pokemon machine, and later on you want the egg move one to get specific egg moves for specific strategies (im currently trying to get a population bomb cinccino)
@@albedo2433 Well yeah but I already had most of what I wanted. Plus with all the rare Pokémon I already had what I found to be the most useful were the egg moves.
Funny enough I had a very similar strategy to deal with eternatus, but used skill link water shuriken cloyster with maxed out kings rocks, grip claws, and multi lenses to always move first with priority, and always hit ten times and has an absurdly high chance to flinch and steal an item
I haven't played pokemon games in years until one of my friends told me about this game. I got hooked to this game for 3 weeks just playing this every day in class. I really like this game because it gave me the joy of pokemon as a kid. So if you read this comment, you should really give it a shot.
In the span of this stream, I went to bed, woke up and went to school and attened the first lecture..... and it was playing in the background the whole time
I run a Wo-Chien with Ruination and Leech Seed, that I will splice with Gargancl for Salt Cure, and then Unfuse, then fuse again with Shedninja for Wonder Guard. It can only be killed by hazards, sandstorm/hail, and fairy moves. But make sure to put max focus bands, it helps alot.
I been playing pokerogue tirelessly for weeks. Always use a zigagoon, I love also use a Kyurem that has dragon breath, ancient power, freeze dry to destroy water types, and no retreat. I played pokerogue for about 144 hours of game time. I'm collected every pokemon, a lot of shinies, and a battle bond greninja.

Haha, nice, I never thought about using Multi Lens with Covet, I was using it with Ancient Power and Primal Groudon on my first normal run where I finally beat floor 200.
How do you play the game
Doesn't eternatus have flamethrower? How do you deal with that?
@@2aNullPointer Eternatus only has Flamethrower in the 2nd phase of classic mode. It never has Flamethrower in Endless mode.
@@MatthewBlackwell._. It's browser based, so on the internet.
Technician Meowth with Fakeout and Payday was the Pokemon that first carried me to lvl 100 too. Fun game that made me think more about Pokemon and moves that I basically never used in actual Pokemon games cause I'm casual.
I was not expecting PointCrow's strategy to be the same exact one i happened to be using in my own Endless run, except im using Kyurem-White, who also has Dragon Energy as an egg move. Stealing all the dragon fangs is the funniest thing and the sheer damage it deals is hilarious even as all the enemies in late game endless become impossible to kill normally.
To those new to pokerogue, this strategy no longer works. Eternatus now has flamethrower and will obliterate Tinkaton. Also Rayquaza was nerfed. My current strategy is Kyogre(Main)+Leafeon(Red Shiny and Sappy Seed+Pickup)+Garganacl(Red Shiny and Salt Cure+Sturdy+Recover+Extra Healing)+3 Red shinies.
Edit for Elcebollon: My current strategy needs Sappy seed/leech seed but I'll take a look at Pachirisu for my Electric Monotype run. I'm currently trying to get at least one level of shiny for kyogre so I can replace one of the red shinies for my blue shiny ribombee which has honey gather. That way, I get honey gather and I still have max luck
You can add pachirisu instead of leafeon for their passive ability and pickup, this would get you honey for more money and pickup at the same time.
@@elcebollon7750 Sappy seed is extremely useful for beating Eternatus with Garganacl alongside sturdy, recover, salt-cure, and the fact that he usually uses Eternabeam which has a turn needed for recharge. I am trying to get Kyogre at least one shiny level because then I could substitute one of the red shinies with my blue shiny ribombee with honey gather and still hit the luck cap. I'll definitely take a look at pachirisu though.

@@elcebollon7750 Something is preventing me from commenting to you (it keeps being deleted) so I'll try and put it in an edit
While Tinkaton doesn't work anymore, A pokemon with Steel as it's primary type being fused with a Well Baked Body Dachsbun can do the same thing Tinkaton and other fairy steels used to. Just requires a little more luck.
Endure can also be used to always survive Eternabeam while still forcing a Recharge turn on Eternatus. It will also always use Eternabeam against a healthy dragon type that's weak to dragon. I made use of these two facts by putting Endure on my Mega Latios plus shell bells and Enigma and Sitrus berries to heal up before it could fire off the next Eternabeam, and strike with Luster Purge with multi-lens (which was recently reworked) on the recharge turns. Luster Purge's 50% chance to drop the target's Special Defense is especially helpful here as it stops the fight from going too long on E-Max Eternatus floors. I beat the floor 750 and 1000 Eternatus fights this way on the endless run I'm on (it is my first endless run also).
The recent nerf to Endure tokens that stops them from activating more than once per pokemon certainly helps.
It might be that you don't even need to heal up if eternatus always clicks Eternabeam even if your dragon type is at one HP. But I'm just saying what i know for sure.
@PointCrow Hiiiiii!!!! It’s your driver from “The Sauce” convention. I hung out with my son today and I was telling him that I met you. He loves your content and like I thought, yes he knows you! He was blown away that I, his Mom got to actually meet you and talk to you. I was telling him that you’re so down to earth and just hella cool. He could not believe me. 😂 he was looking like this 😮. So I wanted to tell you that he makes gaming music for fun. Thanks for being so kind. Tracy 😊
Small correction to 3:45:
It’s only random when you get your first gym leader (50/50 between floor 20 or 30). The rest of the gym leaders are always 30 floors after the previous.
I did some damage calcs by hand for the Roaring Moon battle at 17:04. Assuming it had 31 Spec Def IVs and a Spec Def boosting nature while you got a low damage roll, Rayquaza did a minimum of 7,381 damage. I can't take the number of Dragon Fangs into account because they weren't shown on screen at the time.
EDIT: I rewatched and saw you hadn't refought Eternatus in between Roaring Moon and showing that you had 29 dragon fangs, so I redid the damage taking the 29 dragon fangs into account. In that case, Rayquaza did a minimum of 46,363 damage.
I screamed when I saw Furret and even more when I saw that Furret was the keystone to to the strategy. Furrets cannot be stopped from The Walcc!
He just walcc away from the battle :3
Oh wow, was not expecting Nuadha's theme from Mabinogi during the final Eternatus fight!!! Fking mad respect for you now!!! And just, wow, an EPIC video all around!!!

i’ve been struggling to understand this game ever since I started seeing content on it - this video helped so much!! Thank you!
Love this great video, when selecting you team some pokemon have a purple box round them. Pokerus it increases Exp gains and will spread to the other pokemon in your team. This made a massive difference to my runs thank you for the shinny and item pick up info.
I just want to say, that shiny Lilligant has such a good color palette.
Endless actually does end somewhere in the late 5,000's.
Because the game engine literally cannot go further. It killscreens.
It's because tokens stack to 999 each, which is how much tokens enemies would have at floor 5850. once you beat the pokemon on floor 5850, the game tries to give more tokens to the pokemon like usual, but since the stacks are maxed, it can't add them and just freezes (or now in newer version it just ends). People managed to get past 5850 due to starting their attempt at a point where getting to 5850 started a second stack of both damage tokens and resistance tokens, so the game didn't get stuck trying to add more as there was another stack it could add them to.
The Gen 5 style animated pixel art sprites go so hard
The roguelike elements of this game combined with the raid boss mechanics of the dynamax adventures plus add like megas to the boss pool and you might have the best multiplayer Pokémon experience ever
"But before we get there-"
*places hand on arrow keys*
"-I need to explain how the game works!"

This is the most amount of mind,luck,outplay and precision in any pokemon battle i have ever seen.
Surely,one of your best videoz. Absurd 😶
“You’re a 10 year old with a walking nuke flailing your arms until the world ends” is my new favorite sentence
his best video because it didnt rely on ludwig or some speedrun record and he made it genuinely entertaining on his own, very proud of our boy today
There’s a broken start if u have a toucannon with beak blast and a multi hit lens it will infinitely attack any boss pokemon without activated any berries or ending the move
Small correction
Fake out with stab has a 90 basepower
40 to 60 and then stab on the 60 as the bonusses in pokemon are Additive so its the 50% bonuses on the total.
And stab gets calculated last.
Yeah he has flamethrower now. So that hack is no more for tinkaton
Aw
Now people bring Fidough to evolve into Well Baked Body Dachsbun and fuse it with a steel type instead for the same effect.
Adding "His World" and your reaction to the shiny boss made me instantly sub xD
This is the standard way to play endless. He's missin some of the big hitters like giving his salt cure pokemon soak(turns typing to water so the saltcure does more dmg,) and leech seed. Or his overleveled pokemon night shade/seismic toss, can also do counter+mirror coat or metal burst (depending on your speed.) Can also put super fang on your runaway mon, lotta cool stuff you can do.
But all of this mostly comes into play in the later floors of endless, after where he decided to quit. I personally like to get an endless run set up with shiny charms ready for a shiny weekend event, load it up, farm abit over the event, maybe start a 2nd run, then sit on it until next shiny event. Either way, super fun game.
Love it how the moment this vid comes out meowth gets nurfed to have pickup instead
it still has technician
Me when I forget many pokemon have 2 abilities.
i was actually watching the stream live and the feeling of disappointment at the end was radiating from the screen.
The actual way to win Endless is to make it to 5850. The game just kinda stops loading floors once you hit it so you should do just one more run. Awesome vid. 😁
Point crow when is the next watching something happen series
At first i was like "Nah i dont see what is so great about it"
And then....i have over 48 hours, and endless save going at 1500+ wave with 4 shiny charms...this is so addictive and since is a browser game I can keep grinding while im at work lol
8:42 I think he was a little hyped over the shiny lmfao
😂😂
Just a lil excited
"I'm probably gonna go first"

@@ot-slice295 It is if you're playing endless to get new unlocks.

Thank you! I knew i heard that ost somewhere!
I cant believe this and helluva boss full moon released almost simultaneously.
finally a run with finn, grill always prevails but I swear every run is ivy and im losing my marbles, finn needs some time to shine yknow
Great video! ive been waiting to watch, I would love to see more from you!
"The only way to win is to stop playing." That line is so good.
Well, someone here has an addiction...
Haha true!!
Ya think?
Game changed soooo much since then. Completely new game with random events and stuff
4:29 I love the "Technician raises the moves bp by 50%, so fake-out (40bp) becomes a whoppin' 80bp!!!!" math
(edit: even with the stab bonus it becomes 90)
I thought stab was 20%?
Was looking for this
@@Jp63a STAB is 1.5x, and so is Technician, though they apply at different points in the damage formula. Technician multiplies the base power of a move by 1.5x, whereas STAB multiplies the final damage by 1.5x.
Yeah I was confused about how he got 80 lmao
@@NightKev ty, I understood the order but I guess I just gaslit myself into thinking stab was 120% lol
PointCrow: the shiny machine gives you an 1/64 chance to hatch a shiny
Me: WHAT 1/64 CHANCE???
Every 30 floors you will encounter a gym leader
Of course pointcrow breaks this game just after it came out
Gyat Skibi
Do not say that
it didnt just come out its been out for like 3 or 4 months
To be honest, he didn't break it... He essentially used the meta strategies everyone in endless uses and only made it to floor 1000. That Rayquaza would be essentially useless starting somewhere between stages 2500-3000 because of the stacking damage reduction the enemies get. You eventually have no choice but to play a Sturdy+Metal Burst mon to beat the bosses every 50 stages. Personally I am not a fan of how limiting it gets at that point, but the devs are currently working on revamping endless so that it is not a solved mode with only 1 viable strategy.
@@TechnobladeNeverDies8592 dude why would you do this
This video feels like a cool little time capsule for old pokerogue because things like crow's eternatus stat don't work anymore
The main reasons being
Eternatus now knows flamethrower so the only way you could be invincible is by getting dna splicers with a dachsbun and something that would result in a steel/fairy type with well baked body
Leppa berry limit was reduced from 10 to 2
And a lot more things
7:14 Mama crow 😂
My strat is using zigzagoon and shedinja and DNA splicing them together. It ends up with covet, extreme speed, shadowball and you can teach it a fairy move before combining them to deal with dark types. Also when nincada evolves it doubles the items it's holding, which helps in the early game.
I have now beat the game 4 times, and I don’t want to stop any time soon
Rougelikes have a way of consuming my life, I got Ror2 over spring break and have over 50 hours on it already
How do you play it?
@MatthewBlackwell._. I'm pretty sure it's on browser, so just looking up pokerogue might take you to the website
Money Meowth Team is no joke in fire red.
PP up, Rare Candy, TMs, Nuggets...
Just a teensy lil explainer on the difference of rogueLIKE vs rogueLITE, cause you sain that unlocking Pokemon for future runs was a roguelike feature.
Meta progression is strictly a roguelite thing, where your "account" gets stronger over time. The roguelike part is just a normal run, where the runs you're going on are random.
Anyways, glad to see you're getting addicted to this as much as everyone has been the past couple of weeks XD
Just wanted to clarify that little bit of lexicon that honestly a lot of people misuse (which is super fair cause it's supremely niche, lol)
There is absolutely a number overflow somewhere. Don't be a quitter! Get those unsingned bits.
19:42 WHAT IT HAS 1 ATTACK HOW????
10 Soul Dews on the same Pokemon makes its nature's negative stat (e.g ATK for Modest) 1.
10 soul dew make the negetive stat into just 1. it would've been even more op if it was 0, assuming pokerouge would have the same reaction to having 0 defense as normal pokemon games and just do 1 damage no matter what
Fun fact, this interaction is extremely important for ACTUALLY breaking endless mode, as Metal Burst + sturdy is the Go-to combo for doing so, as eventually the pokemon get enough Damage Reduction tokens to take 1 damage from all conventional attacks, and get enough Damage boost tokens to OHKO all of your pokemon even if they're massively overleveled, and Metal Burst is basically like if Counter and Mirror coat were combined, but didn't have negative priority. If metal burst is used before your opponent attacks, it will just fail, so having 1 speed is ideal with it!
I’d love to see a Exploit Versus on a Pokémon Game or fan-game like Rogue between PointCrow and SpiffingBrit
I like pokerogue because it is simple enough that someone like me who hasn't played a single Pokémon game can still beat the game after a few tries
Edit: a ONE IN 64 CHANCE OF BEING A SHINY??? It took me over 150 shiny up eggs to get a single one
Although my first egg shiny (and my only one at the time of writing this) is a shiny registeel
they are 1/64 from the shiny up machine. that machine however is the worst one to get pokemon from. early game, you want to use the legendary pokemon machine, and later on you want the egg move one to get specific egg moves for specific strategies (im currently trying to get a population bomb cinccino)
@@albedo2433 Well yeah but I already had most of what I wanted.
Plus with all the rare Pokémon I already had what I found to be the most useful were the egg moves.
That's rng for ya 😅
The rayquaza with all the silk scarves reminds me of the scene from the pokemon adventures manga where red's pika is covered in fake items
The game ends at wave 5850, it just stops working.The abosulte highest anyone ever got was 5885
highest someone's got is just slightly past floor 37000, but you can't get past 5850 anymore.
Funny enough I had a very similar strategy to deal with eternatus, but used skill link water shuriken cloyster with maxed out kings rocks, grip claws, and multi lenses to always move first with priority, and always hit ten times and has an absurdly high chance to flinch and steal an item
