@@semaJCh Sometimes I think I'm watching a video on speedrunning all Pokemon games, which also could be a good idea. "How fast can you beat every Pokemon Game?"
That's so great to hear, stoked you enjoyed! I have always been a psyduck fan, but making the video certainly gave me a new appreciation for the poor guy! XD
Fun fact: the ducks at the start of the video are called mallard ducks. One of the most common wild ducks you'll see in America. (The pure white ducks you may see in ponds or Alflac commercials are not wild ducks. They are a domestic breed of duck called Pekin ducks) Another fun fact about ducks: they are physically unable to eat without water. They can not properly swallow food into their crop without water to wash it down I will end my comment now before I ramble a whole essay on duck facts I've learned raising flocks of them. TLDR: ducks are neat
Cutscenes and required story have increased so much in later games, as evidenced by psyduck being one of the first encounters after the starter and rival fight and yet it still came third in the rankings for PSV
This is a great one that wasn't on my list as well! I love the videos that explore which mon is the rarest (I think JPR did a great one on this) and can imagine it being very interesting for our series! :D Thank you! :)
@@pageclayton6850 I'm pretty sure Pinsir and Heracross are rarer, provided you're using the 'wrong' game. Rarest off the top of my head: Gen 1: Various 1% encounter evolved forms. Gen 2: The legendary beasts since they roam. Only other one I can think of would be Qwilfish before Bugsy, since you need to trigger the swarm. Gen 3: Another roamer. Gen 4: More roamers. Although if you include glitches, it is possible to encounter the Spear Pillar Arceus. Gen 5: Definitely a hidden grotto Pokemon. Something that could be even harder than the usual encounters would be Stunky in W2 or Glameow in B2, since those require Funfest Missions, which means you need the opposite game and another DS. Gen 6: The roaming bird. And it's honestly even harder than usual roamers, since you have to encounter it 10 times before it becomes a stationary legendary and you can catch it. Gen 7: An SOS exclusive Pokemon. I remember you can get a low level Salamence, so that's probably the hardest to get. Gen 8 and 9: Haven't played them so I'm really not sure.
Crystal has Psyduck as a walking encounter in Ilex Forest which is faster than Gold and Silver. It's also in Ravaged Path in Sinnoh as well which is sooner than Oreburgh Gate.
@@JaymiKit5une Why not check Bulbapedia before commenting? Psyduck is in Ravaged Path in D/P, just with a 2% encounter rate. Still, can be gotten before first badge
@@MartaBunny Meh, I prefer trying to go based on memory - I think it's just the odds are much higher in Platinum so I forget it exists there in the original two games
Thanks for mentioning this for anyone! I didn't mention it in this video, but I stick to the the base games unless necessary (i.e. black 2/white 2), to show what the original route would be. Just my preference for the challenge and video, but it could be done in many ways! :D Also, the ravaged path discussion is good too. With the 2% odds and how similar the routes are, the times should be similar. I certainly could have showed off a lucky run to compare how fast that might be. XD Thanks for checking out the vid and feeback everyone! :)
It sometimes surprises me how much the animes most popular pokemon are hidden in the games. Togepie, psyduck, wobbefett, its amazing to see how much time and effort it takes for them in some of these games
Heres a tip for whenever you need to use the safari zone with steps limit for a challenge: you can get random encounters by turning in place, and it doesnt count as a step
Absolutely in love with this series. I think an interesting one would also be catching Eevee, since as a kid I always thought they were super rare encounters (and I think to an extent they used to be?)
So glad you enjoyed! And I totally agree! :D I have actually been workshopping some eevee ideas ever since I decided to start the channel and do the pikachu video. Still working on what exactly I might do, but you can bet we will have eevee content in the future! :)
i dont know about gen 3, but in gens 1, 2 and 4, you get eevee via a gift so im pretty sure there were no wild encounter tables with eevee. In gen 5, Eevee can be found in Castelia Sewers, as long as youre in the right season. and then past gen 5 i know fuck all.
@@australiananarchist480 eevee can be caught in the trophy garden, after getting the nat dex
Рік тому+33
Aside from our boy Psyduck, there are two other Kanto Pokémon to be found on every generation: Magnemite and Magikarp (even including Legends: Arceus), so it would be cool if you try those other two next :D
Does Scarlet/Violet also have the same limitation that Sword/Shield had, that you couldn't catch Pokemon of higher levels if you didn't have the right badges yet? If not you could pretty much fill half of the Pokedex before you even have one badge in Scarlet/Violet. Lol
in Gen 4 diamond and pearl, Psyduck has a 2% chance of spawning in ravaged path, the cave north of Jubilife City which can be accessed before beating Roark
Oooo. This video was fun! Next you see how long it takes either Eevee, Ditto, or Magikarp. All 3 encounters are Pokémon favorites, and fairly common throughout main series games!
These runs are so fun! I kinda have my own headcanons for the trainers in these! Riley: The pikachu obsessed rocket grunt. There determination and enthusiasm for crazy schemes is second to none, though none of the other rocket grunts take them very seriously. All of there pikachus wear cute color coordinated ribbons Wendy: A swimmer. There favorite pokemon is Psyduck and there life goal is to swim in every body of water the pokemon world has to offer. There two goals combined on there quest. All of there Psyducks wear colorful bracelets Can't wait to see what you do next, keep up the good work! ❤️
Thanks so much to everyone for watching, checking out the channel and/or any of the other unbelievable support I have gotten since starting the channel! As usual, this video started out as a fun little way to follow up the last one and ballooned into a bigger and bigger headache of a project than I could have ever imagined. 🤣 All in all, I was really happy with how it turned out and I hope this one ends up just as enjoyable for everyone. 🥰 Anyways, thank you all again! Let me know if you have any pertinent info to add to our psyduck studies, until then I am going to keep working on some big projects. 😉
Gen 1: Why do you fight Surge? It’s not needed. Gen 2: Why not play Crystal? You can catch Psyduck at night in Ilex Forest. Gen 4: You can find Psyduck in Ravaged Path, before fighting Roark.
Love the content and narrative. Amazing to find a poke tuber that showcases all the generations in each video. And you answer a question that I always ask when I start a new gen or playthrough …. How long until I can can get “insert Pokémon’s name here”. And psyduck is one of my all time favourites, and needs more love and attention [cough] second typing.
Small addition: Psyduck can actually be found in Ravaged Path north of Jubilife pre-Oreburgh Gym. It's only 2% in DP, though. But if Platinum is an option, that's boosted to 35%.
9:00 You could of gotten psyduck a lot earlier in Pokémon crystal… it’s a 10% encounter in the ilex forest at night, or 30% in the national park at night.
0:18 yoooo it's me, Psyduck is one of the best water representatives here :) Zubat seems like a good idea, as im pretty sure its only inobtainable in SV at the moment
Fun video idea. I have two suggestions for runs, one short and one long. How fast can you get the pokedex in every pokémon game? How fast can you get the master ball in every pokemon game?
Nice videos keep up the great work man! An idea that could work and be fun to see is to keep playing until you encounter and catch a shiny Pokémon in each game. I think that would be crazy! It could be called, “how fast can you catch a shiny in every Pokémon game?” 😁
It's honestly insane to see how slow the early-game of new generations is, considering it takes even speedrunners an hour to get off the first island in Sun/Moon and getting past the intro cutscenes of Scarlet and Violet takes almost 30 minutes. So much for replayability.
I hope you’ll take on similar videos for Magnemite and Magikarp too. It’s nice to see runs for finding Pokémon that span all the Pokémon games. As an aside, I’m a big fan of the two GameCube games, Colosseum and XD, and personally include them in lists of mainline games, even though they’re obvious spin offs. If you happen to do catching runs that could incorporate those games too, that would be amazing!
It's crazy how high quality your videos are! I'm blown away every time! I love watching the Ruby/Sapphire stuff because it's nostalgic, but all of the rest is still just so entertaining! So thankful that you feed us this food for free Can't wait for the next one! I LOVE YOU!
i love this video!! its super interesting and your explanations of each route are great for understanding the games i haven't played yet. i can't wait to see what else you make!
I got my brother back into pokemon after a few years of him taking a break and we started with black/white 2, and he caught a Psyduck in the ranch. Told him it wasn't good... It kept surviving in our battles we had after each gym(my electivire couldn't OHKO it with thunderpunch, somehow)and came in clutch in a few in- game fights for him. My older brother helped me remember that no pokemon is "bad" if you give it a chance.
never knew i needed this in my life a non-pokemon idea: Metroid 1st missile or e-tank pokemon idea: fastest to trigger non-level up evolution in each game
So glad you enjoyed! These ideas are great by the way, the Metroid one was the exact thought I had on my list too, so I am stoked others think it could be fun! Plus that Pokemon one is another great idea! 🥰
Instead of focusing on one pokemon, I think it would be interesting to see how quickly you can get a pokemon of each type. I know some of them would be particularly brutal (ice in gen 4 comes to mind, since you need access to the north of mt coronet), so it would be fun to see what the hardest type to access in each gen would be. :)
These challenges are such an interesting take on Pokémon content, I think it’s great! What if you were to try one where you get a starter in each game (aside from the one you get at the beginning)? It probably doesn’t apply to a few but I know it’s possible in a good chunk of them like Yellow, X&Y, Sun/Moon, etc!
i really though that the video was made by a large youtuber; surprised to see that you ONLY have 6k you deserve much more ps: i really like the editing and the storytelling
Since you want a challenge idea, how about this one: How fast can you get a fully evolved Pokemon in every Pokemon game? Now, it could be done in multiple ways like getting a Pokemon with no more evolutions (e.g. catch a Flamigo), evolve from first stage to the last stage (e.g. evolving a Caterpie to the final stage), catching a 3rd stage final evo (e.g. catch a Butterfree), going for a 2nd stage (e.g. using a Thunder Stone on a Pikachu), or even twisting it to seeing a fully evolved Pokemon but not having to catch it (e.g. fighting a Bug Catcher that has a Butterfree). Could also be interesting to see more spin off games or doing separate spin off versions of videos like getting a Psyduck in every Mystery Dungeon or every Rumble game.
Just found this video while trying to find Psyduck catching areas in games! Totally gonna be doing this - maybe not in a speedrun way! Still, nonetheless, I approve of this video
@@semaJCh No problem! :D Might be a bit tricky in the first Mystery Dungeons since Psyduck is like post-game if I remember right but you could probably count the starter Psyduck!
I love how Gen II gave you a 10% chance Golduck over the 90% chance Psyduck you wanted! It's as if the game knew! Anyway, I'm loving this series a lot, and find it strangely informative, too. I'm impressed you get some of these insane ones in under 2 hours, to boot! How about catching -Clefable- Clefairy in every gen for a video? Since Clefable was originally intended to be the mascot, after all
Thanks a bunch! I love researching these topics and trying to make a story out of it the best I can!:) Clefairy is certainly a good option to look at in the future!
It seems this video is only using the main double entries and not special versions, so that discards Psyduck in Oreburgh Gate. However, Psyduck does appear in Ravaged Path in D/P, at a low 2% encounter rate. It's possible to run into one much faster than the method he used in the video, but it's also possible that it could take longer.
Psyduck has been my favorite pokemon since I was very little! I used to get horrible migraines as a kid so I would point at the headache duck and talk about how they were just like me haha
I don’t know if anyones mentioned this yet so I’m sorry if you’ve heard this before, but the reason Galarian Slowpoke was so hard to catch is because in Sw/Sh Pokémon that are a higher level than the one you have out (even if it’s just by a single level) will have much more difficult catch rates.
Thank you, you rock! I totally forgot about that and it explains so much LOL This is exactly why the speed run gets that experience candy as well but that totally didn’t click until now. 🤣🤣🤣 Hopefully that didn’t ruin that part too much for anyone 🥹 Thanks for the feedback!
man watching you play these games back to back always makes me really annoyed at sun/moon with the amount of interruptions that happen, how long they are, and how often @_@
In DP, Psyduck can be found in Ravaged Path. It's only 2%, but searching there is probably quicker than beating the first gym. (Or you could just play Platinum and have it at 35%) And in USUM, Psyduck can be found in Sandy Cave.
While watching I sometimes forget that the goal is to catch a Psyduck and not beat the game, which is hilarious.
I totally feel you on this! When making the vid, there are so many steps beyond the actual catch that it always feels like a lot more. XD
@@semaJCh Sometimes I think I'm watching a video on speedrunning all Pokemon games, which also could be a good idea. "How fast can you beat every Pokemon Game?"
Imagine if you had to beat all of the games using only Psyduck. That would take DAYS, MAYBE EVEN WEEKS.
as a psyduck enthusiast who’s caught a psyduck in every generation this video was so fun to watch

This is a great piece of evidence gained from our study! ;D
For a possible next episode, it would be interesting to hunt the rarest mon of each game, interesting and tortuous
This is a great one that wasn't on my list as well! I love the videos that explore which mon is the rarest (I think JPR did a great one on this) and can imagine it being very interesting for our series! :D

You should try catching the regional bug in every game.

As a permanent member of the Psyduck Fan Club, seeing your video on my feed hit me like S.S. Anne. Loved it!

Sema is like "Look at this Duck. Isn't It neat? Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?"
Really enjoy this style of video and your narration+editing style! Looking forward to future videos, I'm glad you got recommended to me!
I'm really enjoying the thorough explanations and fun roleplaying you do throughout! Nice job dude!
First vid of yours I’ve ever seen- it was a joy! I love this. As a recommendation, I think you should do this with a lot of pokemon haha
So glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching! :D
Great recommendation, I have many more videos in mind both for this series and others! ;)
You're telling me all these years and Surge's gym puzzle has a pattern
You actually don't have to fight Brawley before Norman. Funny enough, you can skip him all together right up until the Elite 4 badge gate.
This video was made for me. It is my favourite pokemon. The amount of psyduck merch I own might be shameful 😅
Amazing! Thanks so much for checking it out, I hope it lived up to the Psyduck Standard! ;D

How fast can you get the pokedex in every pokémon game?
How fast can you get the master ball in every pokemon game?
Glad you enjoyed!
Both great ideas! Thanks a bunch! :)
6:01 In saying this, he made trilling sounds similar to some tracks from this game.
Not sure if anyone else got it but I appreciate the joke at the end to Psyduck’s ability
So glad you mentioned this one! ;)
Loving your content!! Always a fun watch and you've got a super pleasant voice to listen to! Excited to see more! 🤩
Thanks so much! I really was unsure how my voice would work out with this when I started so it means a bunch to hear that it works for the videos. :)

LAMBO! THANK YOU!!!!!
Glad to see your channel keep taking off this was anlther great video
So glad you still enjoyed, thanks for all the support! :)
If you wanna save some time, Surge is completely optional since all he does is unlock Flash for HM's

Considering Psyduck was considered for Let's Go before Eevee was used, the game almost was "instant duck%".
Really now?

ps: i really like the editing and the storytelling
Awesome video sir once again and thanks for putting my comment from the last video in this.
This video made me appreciate psyduck even more=) Thank you, I've enjoyed it=)
Since you want a challenge idea, how about this one: How fast can you get a fully evolved Pokemon in every Pokemon game?
Now, it could be done in multiple ways like getting a Pokemon with no more evolutions (e.g. catch a Flamigo), evolve from first stage to the last stage (e.g. evolving a Caterpie to the final stage), catching a 3rd stage final evo (e.g. catch a Butterfree), going for a 2nd stage (e.g. using a Thunder Stone on a Pikachu), or even twisting it to seeing a fully evolved Pokemon but not having to catch it (e.g. fighting a Bug Catcher that has a Butterfree).
Could also be interesting to see more spin off games or doing separate spin off versions of videos like getting a Psyduck in every Mystery Dungeon or every Rumble game.
Just found this video while trying to find Psyduck catching areas in games! Totally gonna be doing this - maybe not in a speedrun way! Still, nonetheless, I approve of this video
I never knew I needed this video. Psaiiii ai aiiiiiii.
Glad you enjoyed! :D
Amazing video! ...now obtain Psyduck in every spinoff too!
I like the spinoffs idea, I will totally look into something like this to see how feasible it might be! :)
And thank you for the support!
@@semaJCh No problem! :D Might be a bit tricky in the first Mystery Dungeons since Psyduck is like post-game if I remember right but you could probably count the starter Psyduck!
Yeah 100% gotta see chancy in every game to help you heal all these Psyducks’ headaches.
Very true, that sounds like a great plan! ;)
"As *quack* as possible" 😂 love it
;)
just discovered your channel and im really excited to see future videos :) keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!!
Sounds like a headache to catch all these ducks, but it ended up making a great video!
I actually got a headache when you said, "Bust out the advice now."
This is next level emersion
we catching it as quack as possible - u deserved my sub.
i think another interesting challenge that might be neat (but take some time) would be a "how quickly can you get the master sword in each Zelda game"
Not all Zelda mainline games have master swords, some technically starts you off with it anyway.
@@sinteleon not every pokemon game has psyduck, some have it in the early game anyway
I love how Gen II gave you a 10% chance Golduck over the 90% chance Psyduck you wanted! It's as if the game knew!
Anyway, I'm loving this series a lot, and find it strangely informative, too. I'm impressed you get some of these insane ones in under 2 hours, to boot!
How about catching -Clefable- Clefairy in every gen for a video? Since Clefable was originally intended to be the mascot, after all
Thanks a bunch! I love researching these topics and trying to make a story out of it the best I can!:)
Clefairy is certainly a good option to look at in the future!
Pokémon Violet immediately jumped to my mind as “the easy one” and it STILL a took nearly half an hour because of tutorials
I love this after the pokemon movie I got the Psyduck plush that says its name and for some reason I call that me. So I love Psyduck and this video
"Watching" (listening to) this video while I have a migraine is quite the immersive experience 😌
The Gen 4 run seems rather suboptimal. Psyduck appears on the main floor of Oreburgh Gate and in the Ravaged Path in Platinum
It seems this video is only using the main double entries and not special versions, so that discards Psyduck in Oreburgh Gate. However, Psyduck does appear in Ravaged Path in D/P, at a low 2% encounter rate. It's possible to run into one much faster than the method he used in the video, but it's also possible that it could take longer.
Psyduck has been my favorite pokemon since I was very little! I used to get horrible migraines as a kid so I would point at the headache duck and talk about how they were just like me haha
I don’t know if anyones mentioned this yet so I’m sorry if you’ve heard this before, but the reason Galarian Slowpoke was so hard to catch is because in Sw/Sh Pokémon that are a higher level than the one you have out (even if it’s just by a single level) will have much more difficult catch rates.
Thank you, you rock! I totally forgot about that and it explains so much LOL
This is exactly why the speed run gets that experience candy as well but that totally didn’t click until now. 🤣🤣🤣
Hopefully that didn’t ruin that part too much for anyone 🥹
Thanks for the feedback!
Hope you got some advil!🦆
man watching you play these games back to back always makes me really annoyed at sun/moon with the amount of interruptions that happen, how long they are, and how often @_@
In DP, Psyduck can be found in Ravaged Path. It's only 2%, but searching there is probably quicker than beating the first gym.
(Or you could just play Platinum and have it at 35%)
And in USUM, Psyduck can be found in Sandy Cave.
3:08 - Wait you can do what now
5:04 - _Wait it counts as a what now_
I'm guessing Bill's house is a _man cave!_ @@Icalasari
I'm a little late to the party, but that's fitting, given that my suggestion is for you to catch Slowpoke.
I remember encountering a Psyduck in Legends Arceus for the first time
I thought it was friendly
It was not
glad to be early on this one, I was looking forward to your next video!
Stoked to hear, thanks so much for all the support! :)
