Once you play pokemon at 4x speed it becomes so incredibly painful to go back to normal speed, especially in a game like this where you can't even turn off animations. Major props for this grind
-
Honestly, not having Will o Wisp on Arcanine during the Hassel fight was definitely a blessing in disguise- Baxcalibur has Thermal Exchange which makes it immune to burns and raises its attack which means that you would have made it hit even harder
-
Actually really good that haunter didn't trick on the black sludge. The Navi Starmobile is poison type, so it would heal it instead. Also, surprised that Cacturne didn't make appearances during the starmobile fights. Spiky shield is good damage against them.
-
Fun fact: even though wooper is a ground/poison in this gen you can still find them with the water absorb ability so that water moves heal them instead of hurting
-
I think the idea of NPC's pokemon holding items is so good! Like I want players to run into some random lady with a Blunder Policy, Hypnosis Drowzee that either sleeps you or starts outspeeding you the next turn if it misses. Neat little strats like that, it would give GF a great excuse to show off some gillicks and interactions that they spent a ton of energy building into the battle system but not showing us.
-
Yay, a new Jrose11 feature film! This channel is a legit gem, man. Cannot get enough of watching your runs.
-
I found out about the Starmobiles' immunity to status moves the hard way during a Violet nuzlocke. They also have unlimited PP
-
Ended working out that haunter fainted before tricking black sludge - woulda been very annoying to see the healing instead of damage on the poison star mobile
-
"The debut of Rocky Helmet" But... You used it against the bug gym. On Arcanine.
-
Jrose: they will learn of our peaceful ways.....by force Bender:i like this guy
-
Breaking down all the weird immunities that the Starmobiles had was insane and Tricking a Black Sludge onto to it was an incredibly clever strategy. I wanna try this with Grafaiai, a Poison/Normal type with access to not only Switcheroo, but Prankster to give it priority and Parting Shot to drop stats. The only tricky part would be beating a 3 star Tera Raid, which might still be doable given how flexible the game is
-
One thing to consider also is to use Gravity because it would make it so flying and levitate pokemon can be hit hy spikes/toxic spikes. It is a TM now since the DLC came out so it has wider distribution.

JROSE SCARLET VIOLET??
-
I always felt something hit different with a JRose Nintendo Switch video and then I realized it's because the gameplay footage takes up the whole screen compared to the games he usually does challenge runs on 😄
-
43:32 So... what you mean is you actually saved yourself, cause you were going to trick Black Sludge onto the POISON Starmobile. Meaning you wanted to give it a good item.
-
I need more "the car" it's the new "rival fival" of scarlet and violet runs. It tickles my fancy good sir.
-
I expected Salazzle to feature way more since you had it on your team + it has Corrosion (can poison steel and poison types) and Glimmora since it's free tspikes + learns the entry hazard moves
-
This was such a fun video, I loved how you put together SO MANY stacked strategies to work. My mind was blown when you threw in Aftermath. ALso, challenge idea: Play Red & Blue (or any pair) SIMULTANEOUSLY using the same inputs. You'll have a really hard time synchronizing the games, but that's the challenge.
-
Would have been interesting to see how much easier this would be in the event that you could catch a Ferroseed. Ferrothorn is the best anti-NPC wall by far, perhaps the best anti-NPC pokémon period. A Protect, Iron Defense, Rest, and Flex move (spikes, toxic, substitute, etc.) set with rocky helmet is so potent. It's basically unkillable as long as you can read fire moves. And of course you had a Flash Fire user, so yeah, Ferrothorn would have definitely solved this run much easier.

Black sludge on a poison type starmobile? To heal it up as you try to whittle it down? Should have thought more about that one, Josh.
