This was awesome! I love how you didn’t lose a single Pokémon in the first 5 championship battles! And the nidoqueen and kangaskhan sweeps were impressive! And the Kirean battle had me nervous but I’m glad it ended well! Giovanni has some really good ground type Pokémon that can be used for competitive play. 😁👍
mate you’ve done it!! haha i love the new sprite changes, attention to detail is always cool and nothing beats pre-3D mons. can’t wait to see a RBY gen 1 attempt 👍
In my Opinion, Giovanni deserves a Mewtwo in his Arsenal and Noooooo....for you Youngin's out there, its not because of Pokemon Go. For those who know, know why im saying he Deserves a Mewtwo in his Arsenal. Enough Said 🤘
I've never been so worried about Wallace. You handled it fantasticly, though. Great job on all of it. I really liked the added challenges at the end. Love how you keep growing!!
Damn, even with the added trainers to defeat this run had some of the fewest casualties ironically. Well played! The funny thing is, this technically isn't even all the possible champions you could add, even aside from Nemona.
Yeah nemona and kukui are "technically champions" so I think I'll have to throw them in two , yeah thank you! I was quite surprised too especially with the ground theme! I don't think I'm going to have it as easy next time!
@@Pokehound1 Even beyond them, Sword and Shield introduced the concept of former champions, featuring both Mustard and Peony, and the Indigo Disk added Drayton to that category if you ever want to throw them in for fun.
What I like about Giovanni is that he is a mafia boss that acts like a rival to everyone. For a villain, I love rivalries. I love how he was inspired and is a parody of Ernst Stavro Blofeld.
Have you seen Giovanni in the Pokemon Adventures manga? His rivalry with Red there is pretty neat, especially in FR/LG where he sets up a battle arena where Red is standing over him as a sign of respect for Red beating him in their previous encounter.
@@Pokehound1 I noticed it might sounded harsh and that was not the point. You are doing great videos but I had to point that out haha. Brock is the rock type user
I know it's not a champion, but you should have thrown him at the professor oak battle as well to see how he'd do against the of games true final boss.
The funny thing is depending if return is max happiness… it would statically be stronger than aerial ace despite doing super effective damage…. From Persian
Yeah frustration, would of been a more thematically fitting move, I also always go for the level cap of the champion, otherwise having a team of 40s into reds level 88 is a bit more difficult.
Overall well played though too bad Giovanni was i believe only a threat in battle in US/UM. To be fair his moves weren't too good & his team was very weak to water
@@Pokehound1 Wow remember me when you get 10million subs. You are entertaining and your videos are creative. I feel like you would enjoy emerald roguelike. It's amazing, you catch random pokemon and try to survive gauntlets of trainers and then the gyms and elite 4s of every generation. It's truly worth a look.
it depends on the version of Giovanni your using red blue and yellow Giovanni can not beat lance or wallace as all but lance's dragonair are part flying type and all of wallace's team is part water you said you didnt have a leaf blade switch in which while technically true nidoking and nidoqueen are ground and poison and poison types resist grass so the leafeon was at best hitting neutral
I like to imagine when “going to Johto” Giovani just walks outside the Indigo Plateau and turns around to go right back in. Edit: Same with going back to fight Wallace and Iris.
giovanni, like most trainers in pokemon, also absolutely refuses to switch out. i feel that's a huge difference that these sorts of videos fail to account for. it's kinda pointless to test a trainer's strength when wielding their team in a way they do not, which makes their team SO much more powerful immediately.
While I understand that part it wasnt something I took into account for I agree, I just use the trainers pokemon not exatcly there movesets or battle styles , thanks for the feedback though I'll possibly try to incoperate it into future videos.
Yeah i didnt want to use legendarys this time around , I also try to avoid pokemon I've already used recently like garchomp! but i do try and use as many pokemon as I can.
Hey, as there's no set champion in alola, I choose hau over kukui to fight as it's fitting to fight the rival in my eyes, however one day i do plan on adding kukui too
During this run I didn't want to use Mewtwo as it would be a bit overpowered! These videos when I was going for deaths rather than attempts I kinda of picked a team and stuck with it.
I have always been impressed by Giovanni. I love how he started off the whole evil series in Pokémon.
The og Pokemon villain has returned and now there are 15 champions for these challenges now 😊
Oh yes alot of champions to face and battles to try and win! 😳
Assuming you haven't done it yet, obviously, we now have to see Giovanni vs. every Evil Team Leader
I always loved Giovanni on Origins. The way he calls his mon’s, the way he tells them what attack to use also. It’s so impressive and intimidating.

Thanks for watching Noljak! Yeah I honestly though I was going to fail right at the last hurdle , but managed to just scrape by...
@@Pokehound1 Keiran is probably the toughest NPC trainer in the franchise. The devs went all out and did their VGC research. :)

Ofcourse! I appreciate the feedback, and they'll be coming up soon 😁

The Wallace fight is probably your cleanest win I've seen in any of your videos. Keep it up!
Thanks! Yeah I felt like it was a good battle, appreciate you watching 😁
I've never been so worried about Wallace. You handled it fantasticly, though. Great job on all of it. I really liked the added challenges at the end. Love how you keep growing!!
Yeah Wallace had me worried it ended there 😳 thanks for the kind words and joining me on the journey much appreciated 😁

@@TheAzulmagia No, but I have heard of it.
Love the Trace disrespect, great video. I assumed Giovanni would be worse but clearly not!
Been playing these games since they first came out in the late 90s. Never knew that the Khangaskhan is holding its babe on its chest
I really love Giovanni's team and his character..
I've been loving your videos!
Really happy to hear that , hope I can keep providing entertainment to you 😁
This was a super fun run! Any chance to use Ground types is a win for me
They really shocked me! Thanks for tuning in as always 🙌
You’d forgot that Giovanni has Golem, Machamp, Kingler in the anime and Mewtwo in Ultra Sun and Moon.
This coulda end after Wallace or Cynthia tbh lol
Why not use the same Dark type move on Exeggutor that you did on Pidgeot or did you forget Psychic is weak to Dark?
you mean the return? I might of overlooked something there!
Awesome video. 1 thing though, Giovanni is not a mainly rock type pokemon user like you stated at 0:10
Oops, yeah that was a mistake 😳 thanks for pointing it out, and thanks for watching!
@@Pokehound1 I noticed it might sounded harsh and that was not the point. You are doing great videos but I had to point that out haha. Brock is the rock type user
@@talds8500 oh no not harsh at all , I made a mistake in my script writing immediately so I'm happy you caught it. 😁
Giovanni is probably the strongest trainer in all of Pokémon, his rhyperior is capable of sweeping some of ash’s teams
in that gen7 game mode where you can wear shades, the simulated giovanni has a gyarados
If you had decided to use held items which would you have added? Bonus points for keeping the Team Rocket / Gym Leader theme
Probably stuff like lagging tail , life orb, flame orb toxic orb, things like that and try to make them work.
14:58 wouldn't Drain Punch be better than Ice punch?
Yeah probably actually 😅
I know it's not a champion, but you should have thrown him at the professor oak battle as well to see how he'd do against the of games true final boss.
U should include a pic of the trainer that shows when they had the Pokémon in the show bro
In the intro? Yeah could be something I look to do in the future, thanks!
20:20 woah 😮😮
Hope you guys enjoy this one! Who do you want to see next? Hardcore nuzlocke coming up soon!
either Cyrus or Filnt probably
I would love to see an officer Jenny run with all the Pokemon they used
Your in luck if you check out my champion playlist I've done her!
I want you to try BDSP Cynthia instead. You are amazing I feel like you can do it no problem
I've done her before and I will do her again no problem! And thank you 😁
The funny thing is depending if return is max happiness… it would statically be stronger than aerial ace despite doing super effective damage…. From Persian
Something I overlooked , are u on about vs ludicolo? if so I only use it as he spams double team -.-
i'm a bit curious why leon with rillaboom isn't used over the other teams given its strength
It's just the way I have it set up, although I could change his starter in the future
I would've kept the levels the same as his Gym team.
Also his Persian wouldn't know Return as he doesn't love his pokémon.
Yeah frustration, would of been a more thematically fitting move, I also always go for the level cap of the champion, otherwise having a team of 40s into reds level 88 is a bit more difficult.
Fake Out for the win!
It's so strong!
Overall well played though too bad Giovanni was i believe only a threat in battle in US/UM. To be fair his moves weren't too good & his team was very weak to water
Please do defeat every champion with Jessie and James
I've done it it's up on the channel! 😁
Are you using a fan game mod or are you just fighting trainers from each game?
Every champion from the games , a mod would be super cool in the future to look at it doing.

@@Rekora_Wulf thanks for the super kind words, really means alot to me 😁 plenty more to come, and I'll check it out for sure!
Sandslash got needlessly obliterated at the end
it was such a overkill 😂

that'd be epic to see! always wondered how the trainers would stack up to each other if one played how they actually do in the games@@Pokehound1
Would it be a crime to have added a Houndoom to the team instead of the Hippo?
I still haven't got around to using a houndoom yet 😅
No one has mentioned that you said Rock type and not Ground type
Yeah one person caught it , was my bad! 🙄
Technically he also could use Mewtwo here😂
That'd be too easy right 🤔 haha
need a rom hack of this
Should’ve added mewtwo to the team
Yeah I was contenplating it but didnt want to be too overpowered
W
23:06 Wait EX-Champion?!
He's still a champion! Accordingly! 😁 Gotta throw red in there!
@@Pokehound1 kieran Is My Favorite Champion
@@SalvatoreMisseri-b2s he's definitely one of the most unique ones with double battles, I love the music too!
@@Pokehound1 Yes
you could have used Mewtwo and porygon z,alsot the regis,garchomp
Yeah i didnt want to use legendarys this time around , I also try to avoid pokemon I've already used recently like garchomp! but i do try and use as many pokemon as I can.
oki..gotcha@@Pokehound1
What about champion red?!
As a playthrough?
@@Pokehound1 absolutely and maybe even scale the champions to his level
I can see the title now “Reds ultimate path to victory!” AnywYs love the content bro
@@Ninetailedfox5 he's on the to do list! And thanks I appreciate that 👊
Honestly if that happened he would just lose to lance
You forgot the champion from MT. battle 😉
Who's that?
@@Pokehound1 Battlus from XD gale of darkness he’s one of the hardest trainers in gen 3😭
@@zaytooraw oh yeah hed be a rough one for sure!
@@Pokehound1 Indeed, I’m loving this series it’s bringing me back to my childhood keep them coming!
@@zaytooraw thanks so much will do 😁
Mewtwo should've been used by Giovanni....
agreed , but didnt want it to just be the mewtwo show this run
@@Pokehound1 oh of course but Giovanni used other ones as well
Kid Govanni had a charizard so.....
Yes he did! He had a charnander but I didn't really want to include it if I didn't have too, possibly because charizard is in the one 👀
Giovanni's specialty is ground type pokemon, not rock type. Js
yeah I missaid that one 😅
Can Conway Beat Every Pokemon Champion
He can't
@@yashdave7559Why not
@@josephward1071 look at his pokemon team
@@yashdave7559 So just replace Lickilicky and Dusknoir with Lickitung and Dusclops

You forgot professor kukawi

Cyrus team
On the to do list!
Stop using counters and counter moves make it harder on yourself just saying
Yeah I mean the Pokémon itself I'm limited to, but the moves I can change up a little your right.
@@Pokehound1 it was a Good run
@@Pokehound1 you should use the moves he use and anime or in game, and if you cant use that move get a move the same base total or close to it
@@wizardmari3497 good ideas!
@@Pokehound1 thanks it just to make it harder and more fun
Kinda boring fights
Sorry to hear you found it like that. I'm doing my best to improve it going forward 😁
You’d forgot that Giovanni has Onix, Golem, Machamp, Kingler in the anime and Mewtwo in Ultra Sun and Moon.
During this run I didn't want to use Mewtwo as it would be a bit overpowered! These videos when I was going for deaths rather than attempts I kinda of picked a team and stuck with it.
