Yeah gen 3 ability pickup can give you after a battle of a chance rare candy or nuggets I should know I watched a vid with a main Pokemon with 5 ziggagoon with the ability Pickup and obtained a lot of rare candy and nuggets All 5 of those ziggagoon had the same ability Pickup
Passed Judgements AbsolBlogsPokemon has a series where he levels up Pokémon to 100 before the first gym using that technique, so it’s probably what you’re looking for.
A little advice: instead of walking you can use the jump bike to provoke encounters. Hold b when on a grass patch, and eventually a Pokemon will appear. This is great to avoid wasting steps in the Safari or when under repel.
@@manuelgm no he evolved Feebas with Pokéblocks to make it a Milotic. You need a DEEPSEASCALE or DEEPSEATOOTH then make a Clamperl hold it, then trade it. It will become either Huntail or Gorebyss
Will say. 3rd gen Ruby, Sapphire, & Emerald were the first Pokémon games I've played, and just realized how much of a errand boy they make you for doing adult tasks at only 10 years old
I don't think Pick Up has an out of battle effect, because you only get an item at the end of a battle, NOT when walking around. Still a funny comment tho
"Remember that PokeBlock case I grabbed in Slateport City?" "no" "Well we need to evolve this stupid thing" "okay" this is basically me this entire video
At least you didn't get a shiny male starter. Or a shiny pooch while resetting. Or a shiny ralts while teaching Wally to catch a pokemon. that would suck.
@@karldavid3661 because he was trying for a female starter to breed them in these playthroughs, because you can only get Ditto in Emerald, so if he got a male shiny on any one other than Emerald, he wouldn't have been able to keep it.
@@karldavid3661 shiny pokemon are just alternate coloured Pokémon than what they normally are, they're EXTREMELY rare in these older games, I think it's a 1/8000-ish chance, don't remember the exact number, but it's around there, so it would have been super sad if he ended up not being able to have the shiny one if it ended up that way.
Not really, just keep the shiny, trade it away to another gen 3 game like Firered and keep it there, and start the challenge again. I'd assume most time he invested was into researching and documenting. Not actually playing
I don't think most of us as kids used X items or status moves. Plus no one told us that raising a stat by one stage in-game was a 50% increase. (Using Swords Dance, Calm Mind, and Dragon Dance definitely seems more worth it as an adult now.(
this brought back so many memories. in my childhood I had emerald, had almost every pokemon, only missing feebas and milotic, game ended up being stolen so I could never finish it
@@dropthebeats6229 as a teen i remember how hard it was to catch a feebas!! My patience was running out lol that was back in 2008. I ended up catching it though and getting the johto starter from prof birch. I then transferred that johto starter to my ruby version from emerald and i ended up catching every pokemon again until i got chikorita, i then restarted the game and transferred chikorita and went to catch them again. Ended up with all 3 johto starters 😁😁. Last week though i found my emerald version and deleted the file there to start again 😂
i'm really happy channels like your are gaining big visibility. also, shoutout to Pikasprey! You def should collaborate, the both of you ROCKS and your styles are very similar. much love
Happy you saw my comment! These really make me see pokemon in a new way, as I usually just catch my team pokemon and use other wild encounters as free exp. P.S. Johnstone if you see this, please keep doing the funny commentary! It's adds a ton more life to your videos!
You should *REALLY* prepare yourself for the Sinnoh one... I also tried to catch every pokemon in sinnoh dex 2 years ago and it was a *pain* in the ass... Anyway, nice video!
I never really say this but holy shit. You make so of, if not the out right best, pokemon content I've ever watched. This video, the layout, editing, amazing humor, and great presentation kept me entertained the entire 43 minutes. Amazing work.
I really like imagining this as three different trainers all racing to fill out their Pokedexes first. Your referring to Ruby, Saphire, and Emerald in the third person makes this 10x easier
Marceious Gaming shiny treecko still haunts me to this day, having lost one on an original emerald cartridge that hadn’t been very well taken care of after only 3 SR ;-; RIP treecko Lost to a corrupted save file ...and now I can’t save on that game ;-;
Couple of tips: when catching skitty, you want to use the repel trick with a level 8 pokemon in the front of your party, makes it so much faster to find. You can also get onto the acro bike when doing the repel trick for latias/latios to save on buying repels. I believe it is also faster since you don't need to open the bag all the time - but It took me forever so it might actually be slower. Awesome video, must have taken ages to make considering you did 6 attempts just to get 3 runs. Would love to see this as an actual speedrun, with more optimal routing and better luck
On one of my emerald play thoughts I caught groudon with a standard poke ball on the first turn of the battle, was the biggest wtf moment in my poke career
My favorite gen, been looking forward to this video!!!!!! Thank you so much for posting and making, I appreciate all your time and effort for such enjoyable and entertaining content! ❤️
These videos are so satisfying to watch. Seeing a full roadmap for every catch from start to finish is incredible, that must've taken so damn long to do!
What I like about this videos is that you tell us what's happening in the story as well. So we get to see the pokedex completion and also review the story.
@@manuelgm i know this is a year old but why tf did u comment this on half the damn comments on the video when he very clearly explains that he traded the clamperls to get the one-per-game berry to evolve feebas and then traded them again w the deepseascale/ deepseatooth to get them to evolve and also when a billion other ppl told u the same thing i just did
I never realized how hard it is to catch feebas... in my original play through of ruby I came across it by chance after only trying ONE fishing spot just trying to see if there were any new Pokémon in the area
I just caught Feebas for the first time yesterday and it only took me something like five to ten minutes. But I had previously tried for hours and eventually rage quit. It actually took me a few years to work up the courage to make a second attempt. I fully expected to end up giving up again but somehow got really lucky.
This series inspired me to try out this challenge on my own in Pokemon X, and I did not realise how deep that rabbit hole went until it was too late. Before the second badge almost half of the pokedex is available, so many lvl 40+ evolutions, even a couple at lvl 50. Exp share and the Battle Chateau helps but still really tedious. Also the Zigzagoon strategy you used here is still viable in X and Y, saves you a lot of money on super potions and great and ultra balls. I always put this playlist on while I'm grinding in X, love your stuff!
I do not understand how you have not broken at least 100K subscribers yet. I remember watching your videos a long time ago, and not subscribing, and now i’m kicking myself for missing out on this great content when it first dropped! Keep up the awesome vids! Good luck with the sinnoh dex 😂😂
I remember going to GameStop and getting a used emerald for my GB advanced and MAN did I hit the jackpot! All lvl 100 legendary and random assortment of pokemon.
I love how enjoyable you make this videos. I could listen to you nonstop. You are one of the best story tellers on youtube. :D Not a single boring moment!
I've always loved these videos and can't wait for the next ones. Also, Emerald, in my opinion, is the best main series game, so I'm so excited to see that you're doing the Hoenn catch 'em all!
hi Johnstone! I really like your series :) i just have one small tip/complain: I am not from UK/USA but from Germany. Therefore, the Pokemons I know have different names than yours. It would help me (and maybe also others) if you would cut the clips in which you catch a Pokemon in a way that you show the picture/look of the Pokemon instead only the catched Pokeball. I know that you do this sometimes in the video, but only sometimes. For other Pokemons you just name them and show the Pokeball. I hope it is understandable what I want to suggest. Besides this, I really enjoy your videos. Great work. Please keep going/doing!
So when I first played Sapphire, I forgot to grab the Master Ball. Seeing as once you leave the base you cannever go back, I was screwed. Kyogre was absolute HELL to capture, I envy your Groudon battle.... Edit: I adore your added commentary
Pancake Slice yeah i mean the master ball should really be used on rayquaza since he is WAY more powerful than groudon or kyogre or on latios or latias as they are extremely rare encounters. Just save in front of it with 50 ultra balls and try until you or it dies or until you catch it, otherwise reset and start over. Paralyzing it, putting it to sleep, even poisoning it (although you have to careful you dont KO it with poisoning) all help of course
13:10 There is an out of battle effect that was there since gen 1 but was unfortunately taken out later down the line: Softboiled. It was so convenient to have Chansey, Blissey, and Mew heal up your team when being away from pokégyms for a while.
Your editing is fantastic. Love the quit cuts when you start ranting about the absurd amount of thievery lol. Looking forward to watching the rest of this series.
@@batch_2731 That’s the problem..growing berries takes time and how do you reset or breed a feebas you haven’t caught yet?? They meant finding abd catching it is a huge issue as it’s difficult to find
I'm going to be honest dude the combination of your pretty chill voice, the subject matter, and the length of the video these make fucking CHOICE nap videos
@@MrStarguy hahahahahahahaha you forget about 1% tree munchlax that can only appear on 4 out of 16 trees and its random every playthrough edit considering it takes 6 hours per try it can easily take over a month to encounter it the only easy way to get it is to get a snorlax from frlg or hgss
I will be marking my spot with times because I'm trying to catch all the pokemon please ignore my comments 15:22 Edit:lol I completely forgot I will be finishing this week hopefully
I love the video, haven’t seen this style of content before personally. I really enjoyed watching you do what has taken me a long time because of dilly dallying.
I love how easy it is to catch poochyena in this game... I could catch 100 of them in idk, an hour or so?? It took me AGES to get the poochyena swarm on SoulSilver, when I finally did I caught like 90 lol. On pokemon mystery dungeon explorers of sky, so far I've recruited 76, and that took SO LONG. You can't just CATCH pokemon in mystery dungeon, you gotta defeat them and HOPE they ask to join your team, which is random. Also poochyena is sooooooooo hard to find, they are in 3 dungeons, only 3, and ridiculously rare to encounter. I'm a dedicated poochyena fan
Wow. So I’m watching this while playing Emerald myself. I beat the game and I’m completing the Pokédex and I stop dead in my tracks when you talk about going back to Rustboro for the Exp. Share. I had absolutely no idea that was there. Thanks for the unexpected tip. Lol
Poochyena is actually kind of scary if it was chasing you, but in Emerald Prof. Birch is being massacred by a mighty.....Zigzagoon.
zxb995511 probably it was a female Zigzagoon :3

Pancake Slice yeah i mean the master ball should really be used on rayquaza since he is WAY more powerful than groudon or kyogre or on latios or latias as they are extremely rare encounters. Just save in front of it with 50 ultra balls and try until you or it dies or until you catch it, otherwise reset and start over. Paralyzing it, putting it to sleep, even poisoning it (although you have to careful you dont KO it with poisoning) all help of course
they make it hard to find the master ball, it's just in a random warp zone room at Team Aqua's base, very easy to miss
13:10 There is an out of battle effect that was there since gen 1 but was unfortunately taken out later down the line: Softboiled. It was so convenient to have Chansey, Blissey, and Mew heal up your team when being away from pokégyms for a while.
14:06 He caught a Spinda with a pattern he didn't have yet? So lucky!
I absolutely love your comedic timing, especially the bit at 1:50
When u upload: Me :)
When u don't: Me :(
But srsly, I always enjoy these

36:08 Lombre to ludiculo with a leaf stone🤔🤔
@FlameBeast1232 evolves with a water stone
Jeevan you donut you can use either 😂
Joe Brogan uh, I’m quite certain only water stones work...
Yea its only water stone for ludicolo
@@joebrogan3287 no you can't only the water stone.
"This is one I don't think I will ever try again" if only he knew
I know completing a Pokedex is a hard task but doing it in 24 hours is a nightmare. Great video btw.
Your editing is fantastic. Love the quit cuts when you start ranting about the absurd amount of thievery lol. Looking forward to watching the rest of this series.
I remember freaking out about catching a Kyogre with a great ball while it was in yellow health.
I once caught Groudon and Rayquaza with a pokeball. On the first try. Lost my shit. 😆
I actually manage to catch the weather trio and the Regis.
Bruh.. Chugaa nest ball'd Groudon on Green Bar.
Accidentally used a pokeball on full health mewtwo and I got it
Gud shtuff all around, keep it up!
leuclam Doc good job on getting the rival last game
Biggest problem I can think of is getting Feebas and Milotic. Between getting your pemtra berries and finding feebas
Not really, just plant the berries and breed/reset your feebas. :)
@@batch_2731 That’s the problem..growing berries takes time and how do you reset or breed a feebas you haven’t caught yet?? They meant finding abd catching it is a huge issue as it’s difficult to find
Your narration is really enjoyable. Helps to immerse in the nostalgia these games provide for me.
I'm going to be honest dude the combination of your pretty chill voice, the subject matter, and the length of the video these make fucking CHOICE nap videos
Emerald best pokemon game, hands down.
I’d have to agree and I grew up on red/blue and yellow
I personally love platinum. Probably because of all the schoolyard myths we had since i was very young.
Totally agree!!
@@jaesen737 i love HG/SS
Black/white are far superior in every aspect
Hi John can you please do sinnoh
My guess is that Sinnoh is going to be next =)
outside of event, sinnoh is pretty easy
@@MrStarguy hahahahahahahaha you forget about 1% tree munchlax that can only appear on 4 out of 16 trees and its random every playthrough edit considering it takes 6 hours per try it can easily take over a month to encounter it the only easy way to get it is to get a snorlax from frlg or hgss
Unova is the hardest cause of all the pokemon
@@kotzer71 But can't you just breed two Snorlax holding a Full Incense?
I will be marking my spot with times because I'm trying to catch all the pokemon
please ignore my comments
15:22
Edit:lol I completely forgot
I will be finishing this week hopefully
Did you finish?!
Did you finish?!?!
Very impressed. Great vid man. Watched the whole thing, I subbed :)
I love the video, haven’t seen this style of content before personally. I really enjoyed watching you do what has taken me a long time because of dilly dallying.
Not even going to lie, I came here to see him catch Feebas lmao
I love how easy it is to catch poochyena in this game... I could catch 100 of them in idk, an hour or so?? It took me AGES to get the poochyena swarm on SoulSilver, when I finally did I caught like 90 lol. On pokemon mystery dungeon explorers of sky, so far I've recruited 76, and that took SO LONG. You can't just CATCH pokemon in mystery dungeon, you gotta defeat them and HOPE they ask to join your team, which is random. Also poochyena is sooooooooo hard to find, they are in 3 dungeons, only 3, and ridiculously rare to encounter. I'm a dedicated poochyena fan
You have a problem, a serious problem.
yess king xoxo love these videos
One of the coolest R/S/E videos I’ve seen so far! Good job :)
Awesome vid, gonna run through Emerald soon lol
Jeez I keep getting excited that the Hoenn Professor Oak challenge is out
If you’re playing gen 3, just remember to name Latios United and Latias Delta.
Automaticist Latios United is my favorite pokémon themed football club
Okay im ready for Diamond and Pearl Now
32:46
It's not because if you check the book it's shown that he wants you to raise a species of his favorite pokemon.
Wow. So I’m watching this while playing Emerald myself. I beat the game and I’m completing the Pokédex and I stop dead in my tracks when you talk about going back to Rustboro for the Exp. Share. I had absolutely no idea that was there. Thanks for the unexpected tip. Lol
