- After I uploaded the M&L: Supertar Saga "no dodging" video, many requested I do the challenge with another game in the series, so here it is! Is it possible to beat Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time without dodging or blocking/countering any attacks at all?

this was a nice watch while I'm suffering with a nasty flu. thanks. at least you beat every usual boss.
Thank You 👌🏼

You can. But then browsers like "nah man fuck you."

If you only care about beating Princess Elder Shroob.
I agree, for the true final boss ist Elder Princess Shroob (the yes part
However, to see the ending Shrowser must be flattened, and this requires counterattack. (the no part

shrowser:hold my beer
I sadly knew of the ending battle, and how it would basically screw this thing over, however you beat a boss everyone had trouble with, without dodging, so at the end of the day, that, was mighty impressive
8:04 It's Petey's sound perfectly aligned with the music
I wish a remake of parthers on time :/
Maybe for switch likely the only reason we didn't get partners in time remake and instead got inside story remake is because inside story was more popular and they wanted to release it before the 3ds becomes irrelevant to the switch
This is clearly one of the best Mario RPG made, even if the other are good
Everyone who had a childhood does
@@BlitzerXYZ It already is irrelevant, BIS 3DS is one of the worst selling Mario games of history, and it showed.
BIS was remade because they didn't need to make nearly as many assets. They already have Bowser, Mario, Luigi, Peach, Starlow, the Broggies, etc. and the engine and lighting as well, they really didn't need to do a lot to remake it. Partners in Time would have necessitated more models, not to mention entire animations for the Babies.
@@bmac4 And also, PiT doesn't need the dual screen as much as BiS with the different bowser/Mario phase
I think PiT only use the dual screen for "Baby i the dark" phase, the final minigame, UFO countdown and some attacks that can be make to fit in the big TV/Switch screen
I once beat the elder shroob princess with one red shell, never been able to replicate it
cool
r/thathappened
Fake.
YEah, and I beat Shrowzer without dodging.
What you people fail to realize is that the red shell has no cap and it is very possible to take on anything with a single on. Once you get the rhythm it doesn't get faster once it caps speed
JEEEEZ you must've grinded to all hell and back! There's no way the bosses are actually anywhere near this easy... right?
... *right?*
Well the only boss I had trouble with princess shroob (younger) the older one was super easy
@@bryantharrison6992 I struggled so hard in beating the shrooblets it's impossible to beat them!!!
Goombaholic Animations Oh my God, you’re right. They’re, hands down, the hardest boss.
@@bryantharrison6992 I know. Do u remember the one that brought Luigis HP down to 1 just by landing on his head? Soooo op
I can't really say because I was underlevelt most of the time and in the late game even got a game over to normal enemies
"The game is possible to beat without dodging."
Shrowser: or is it?
lets just say after you get crushed e.gad grabs the poltergust and captures elder shroob
here is some advice for dream team. before a boss fight with big massif there is a boss that does not give you a chance to attack but you can damage it with surprise boxes. giant battles may be impossible so I think those would be an exception considering it literally changes the game-play and some attacks wont stop until you counter or die.
Why would he make an exception when he didn't here? Just means the challenge is impossible (which.. tbh makes sense... game devs thought people would at least try and not wanna be hit in fights)
@@BaconNuke because some attacks go on until you die even when it is not the gimmick of the fight and it changes the game play. I also want to see him fight antasma without dodging
The fight before big massif which has to be beaten with only counter attacks (thunder sass) bans badge effects, i don't know about mystery boxes tho
@@smg7337 they banned one of the only things that can damage the enemy!?!
i honestly would like the challenge to be encounterbased when the whole game doesnt work.like,looking into what fights work with the challenge and what fights just dont
You had more xp after Mrs. Thwomp than i had after elder princess shroob...
He had to grind more since he can't dodge or counter
Huh. I wonder why...
Shyguymask: I'm going do a no dodging Partners in Time Run.
Shrowser: I'm About to End This Man's Whole Career.
me after seeing the elder princess shroob summary :
"well, looks like he did it"
then when she drops that thing, i just remembered the last part lol. how sad
This game gets too much hate, but personally I loved it
It's a great game. All the M&L's are good, PIT is just cast down because it's in between two games seen as superior.
The best thing about this game is Luigi's animations and poses in general
@@Shyguymask definetily

SGM: ...Why do I hear boss music still playing?
23:25 Missed opportunity at a "Why do I hear boss music?"
I don’t think it’s possible, but try Bowser’s Inside Story
Kevin Ng Paper Jam is impossible as well. As far as I know in the end you have to fight Morton, Iggy and Ludwig. The only way to defeat them is to counterattack to make them dizzy and then that’s when you are able to attack them
Plus I’m pretty sure if you fail to counterattack you die instantly
Kevin Ng actually, I think BiS fails earlier. Giant battles are tricky to figure out, and because of the limited healing items Tower of Yikk may be impossible. If he isn’t, I think Fawful express is. Those stone arches need to be punched down in a counterattack, otherwise the express nukes you until you die.
And the final boss in Bowser indide story would probably be impossible, at least very hard
I have already mentioned comments why bit, dream team, and color Splash impossible without dodging, Rpg is possible, super PM doesn't have Turn based combats
Paper Mario 64, TTYD, paper jam and Sticker Star left...
(Note: I am not sure, whether Bowser is beatable in Sticker Star without using that tail to dodge the chain chomp)
I immediately knew the answer. Since of the “final” boss.
Shyguymask would be amazing at CinemaSins. *_*ding*_*
Piccolo to the Bros at Shrowser: "Why didn't you DOOOOOOOOOODGE??! UUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!"
12:28 "a bomb the size of Snorlax"
it's selfdestruct time
Partners In Time is honestly the most underrated game in the series imo.
Paper Jam is more underrated in my opinion (both games are still actually good)
Short answer: No.
Long answer: Shrowser should not ever be considered a bonus by any means. The fight is required to see the end credits. Besides, Bowser's theme exclusively plays through the boss fights. Shrowser is a definitive main story boss.
Exactly. There should not even be a debate about this, it's a closed case for me. We don't just get to decide who the final boss is.
Youre right and i hate that. Its so anticlimactic to end this great big fuckoff adventure travelling through time and beating one of rhe hardest bosses in the series and then the true final battle is some shitty gimmick fight that takes 3 minutes and is easy as testicles
Imo shrowser is an extra boss
@@lives2872 it is required to make the credits roll. We don't say the rpg battle in super paper mario is an extra boss due to different battle mechanics
@@lovaniagengar7941 i say its an extra boss because its after the final boss. We all have opinions but just because more people agree with urs doesnt mean you can call it the official one
*Sees begining*
Yha like hell your beating the final boss like that
""Final final""
Shrowser is just a huge slap in the face
All of that grinding for pretty much nothing
Was that beginning a reference to CinemaSins or was that coincidence
Yes to the first.

But 10 year old me still found a way to die.

Once you get the trampoline you can chain it forever if you are skilled enough and kill the bosses in one turn. You can also do it with the copy flower and red shell
Edit: I some how completely forgot about Shrowser
I managed to take down the Princesses Shroob by using only 3 Copy Flowers (Even though the 1st form of the elder one required me to use a 4th copy flower)
That's.. Something I guess
I've played this game for a long time and dodging was probably the most important thing except for attacking or healing. I just bumped into this video and thought that it would be someone proposing this challenge to his subs. Even though he tried to do it, he though it was too hard and it would lead to nowhere. But that is my way of thinking. In the end you did such an amazing thing that I'm so glad that I've casually bumped into your video. I'm not able to express how amazed I am right now. Hope that you keep doing this stuff and being such incredible as this video shows you are. Congratulations for your incredibly awesome achievement!!!
when you run out of mix flowers for elder princess shroob
Very nice improvements! Keep it up man, can't wait to see more content from you!
I love these kinds of unique twists on playthroughs, you get a sub my good sir/ma'm/whatever
Honestly, this game is underrated
This was an awesome game. Loved every minute of it.
Great video this series is really entertaining 😎
I love the edits in the transitions. It really shows his personality, especially in this challenge XD.
Oh my god stop it.... I DIED SO MUCH TIMES IN THIS GAME OH MY GOD IM NOT EVEN GOING WATCH IT BEFORE I POST THIS
turns out all you had to do is use ice flowers and buff your defense. everything else is just a matter of pressing buttons for team attacks.
The amount of grief this game gave me!! I was young when I first started this and my responses were terrible x3 Meaning the big bomb carrying boss had me stuck for ages! And I never finished the game because I could never beat elder shroob in her second phase 😭. Maybe one day I’ll give it a second stab
this game kicked my ass, i was stuck on sunnycide for MONTHS and good god, elder shroob phase 2 took me at least 2 hours to defeat
of course, the part where i got stuck at sunnycide, i was like 8, and when i FINALLY BEAT THE GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME I WAS 15
20:02 "THA'TS A LOTS OF DAMAGE!!!"
True
I just kinda saw your bowsers inside story in my recommended and it was so good I just checked out your other videos. Needless to say great, pure original content
You just brought back so many childhood memories of this game
When I fought the Elder Princess Shroob for the first time, conveniently, Baby Luigi was the one to finish her off, as he was the last one left and had no
one-ups.
Quite fitting
I know the premise of Kirby 3, but i've never played it. If I did I would probably have context, but since I don't. What the hell is that hamster doing to Kirby in your pfp?!
@@flameonoodle1172 The big roll
Those dislikes are all from Toadsworth.
Aw yeah just when I was wondering what to watch next, very cool!
I love that you know that it's impossible and you still do it.
If you do this for all 7 games in the series, I can't wait for dream team and how you hand the pi'illodium
Kevin Ng good point, tbf I would expect him to do the standard "how many are needed to beat the game"
so if he needs to counterattack 3 times to beat thunder sass then so be it.
even if it's impossible in most games, I'd love to see it anyway.
@@meggy8875 It can probably be done with Badges and Mystery Boxes
ethan ensley depends if he kills him before he does the self destruct, plus if he uses the hammer move he will probaly take alot of damage.
@@meggy8875 More damage just means more charge if using the correct equipment...I can see your point though...however if he farms and gets max badge slots he should be fine
Shyguymask: You can beat Partners in Time without dodging
Bowser: *Sike, you thought*
I would say that the shrowser fight does count, but hey! You still beat the ENTIRE rest of the game so good job for that!
Shyguymask, beats elder prince shroob: Fake end
Shrowser: *I'm about to end this masks whole run.*
Elder Princess Shroob’s theme sped up sounds like a Kirby final boss theme think it has to be at 2.5x or 3x
*Shrowser: I'ma stop you right there.*
Finally a youtuber that doesn't talk just go with the challenge like it use too and go straight to the point without making silly jokes :)
Happy to see another one of these :)
Halfway through the video I realized why you can’t beat it without blocking
I can imagine for the final phase he was going to at first use
“MIX FLOWER SPAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!”
Nice video! Pls more, it's my favorite game of all time.
Awesome video! For maybe another challenge, what about beating the game (or any other Mario&Luigi game for that matter) with ONLY countering? So you would have to waste items during your turn to make sure you don't attack or something like that
i like how they actually care about their brother fainting or landing a perfect in this game, it makes it feel more alive, kind of?
Makes you wonder if Nintendo ever remade Partners in Time, would they have nerfed the enemies and bosses HP? Because they had way too much of it in this game which makes me wonder if that's why they skipped past remaking it?
The funny part about this comment? They already did. After the initial release in NA, Nintendo and/or Alpha Dream realized how horrendously balanced the bosses were and fixed them for the other regions, typically by lowering HP and raising POW. In particular, the final bosses' HP were lowered from 3000-3500-3000 to 1700-1800-2000, though the Elder Princess Shroob's arms and feet actually got more HP instead. Some enemies also got changes, though not nearly to the extent as the bosses.
@@finalsurvivor1 What they said.
Both the Japanese and European versions of the game are much better balanced.
(Plus, they include a nice song after the credits).
@@finalsurvivor1 There was a share of other fixes as well. Things cost less, some attacks did more damage and some did less, and bizarrely enough, some glitches were patched out that nobody would realistically have encountered in the first place.
Funny enough too, there are 1.0 and 1.1 versions of the North American version, but the differences aren't known and enemy stats are the same in both.
@@finalsurvivor1 Hmm, I still had the old version, and it wasn't that hard. It usually took way longer to find what I had to do/complete it. I was done with the game in 18 hours. (17:58 for the story and about 5 minutes for the Shrowser fight) so was the balance really that bad?
@@rryumi It wasn't that hard per se, save for maybe the final bosses since you had to do all of it save Shrowser in one go. The bosses just tended to drag on because of how much HP they had combined with gimmicks that usually made the fights longer, with Commander Shroob, Princess Shroob, and EPS's second form being the main offenders.
I’m doing a run like this to see if I can do it, this is really inspiring
I thought this would be impossible because of the elder princess shroob, but you've proven me wrong. Well done with this no-dodge challenge, but too bad about the final road block at the end there.
Now do it in the Remake
*Wait what do you mean it doesn't exis-*
i hope this joke became true soon
@@bleurdreemurr4277 no. AlphaDream have gone bankrupt a few years ago
@@Oscarus4250 Im aware of that, dont worry.
WOAH, I didn't know I was watching a cinema sins production!
I played this game in my cildhood. And it's great. I love it. Thank you for reminding me on my time with the Nintendo DSi ♥
After rewatching the Elder Princess Shroob 2nd Phase boss here (I won't spoil the outcome) I just noticed that her boss theme doesn't seem like a properly epic song for a crazy difficult boss, the theme really gives off a vibe of Hopelessness and Consequence. This fight will be what determines the fate of the Kingdom, and the general vibe just feels hopeless. I know this isn't too big of a revelation, but the song even has some quiet, sad sounding parts. It almost makes the player feel dread, and lots of it!
18:15 yeah, my record is 16 attacks in a row....
20:04 my record is 2752 (dealt with red shell used 800 times in a row with 8500 xp)
*h o w*
I mean, they're both certainly possible.
*but it just doesn't feel like it.*
Shy:I DID IT!
Shrowser:Hold my beer
Shrowser: I am inevitable.
Ninitendo: *See’s his Superstar Saga Challenge video*
Nintendo: No
The Superstar Saga video came out after the remake did.
In my opinion, shrowser counts. I mean the goal of the challenge is to defeat the BOSSES without blocking or dodging. And shrowser IS a boss so.. Sorry.
Is this a joke? Read the beginning
Braxton Lee uh... What should I be seeing?
@@trickstertwister612 I think 0:09 , there says: "(If you already played the game you know the answer)"
Shrowser is a slap in the face comfirmed!
It's not just a boss, it's an unskippable boss that you must beat to see the end credits. Shrowser 1,000% counts.
I'm just sitting here wondering how you got Mario to have more defense through most of the game.
Mario is statistically better than Luigi in every way now.
Just like classic RPG just keep grinding until you get strong and that's what brings the challenge
I LOVE the soundtrack of a boss fight in Partners in Time!
Same
0:00 Look at the text below the title, it's a huge spoiler.
Better known as the best game in the series
Or the game with the most adorable cutscenes
Not really, it's good but BIS and SS are better
I watched this about 3 times thinking it was possible then I watched it again and actually saw the end.
Can’t wait for BIS! That’s gonna be a fun one!
Is this the North American version, because the bosses are WAY stronger in that version?
I had an NA version and I live in Europe... oof.
Tbh the stronger bosses still weren't that hard.
Some boss are stronger in NA in a regular playthrough, but would have been hell in a no dodge playthrought, since they have lower HP, but higher speed and attack, Elder princess shroob would be almost unbeatable.
In her first phase, she goes from 3500 to 1800 HP but her attack goes from 130 to 210. And she also get a counterattack each time you touch her.
I remember, i was around level 30, and not countering her meteor dealt around 120 damage (it could OHKO mario i think)
na sounds weird.i actually had a hard time with the finalboss in europe lol
Y E S
I found shrowser more like a minigame than anything, the main reason is because is too easy and I feel it really unnecessary, filler more than anything. Gonna admit the idea was real nice and I wish there were bosses like that but you know with actual difficulty (hadn´t played dream team or Paper jam so idk if there´s bosses like that)
One boss in Dream Team is counter only, and at one point in Paper Jam all your action blocks get stolen, leaving you with only counters and first strikes until you get a block back.
Aaah so dam nostalgic, makes me wanting to play this gem right now again. Anyway sadly the Shrowswe Boss is still a Maingame Boss so he counts. U can end the Mainstory without Dodging/Blocking but not not the entire Game. Anyways cool video. I like that ^^
14:58 The oof was amazing XD. plus I see elder shrooboid is t-posing
I'm actually doing a very similarly difficult challenge: The Mario & Luigi series with minimum kills. It. Is. HELL.
If there is ever a remake, I doubt they would keep Shrowser as a main story element and the final boss. It's my theory that they re wrote the universe so that Elder Shroob never turned into a mushroom, explaining her appearance in BIS remake
@Zachary Erickson the remake, they are frozen in the background
@Zachary Erickson of the shroob fight
She was in the original BIS too. I imagine if we ever DO get a PiT remake, we'll have a sidestory minigame like Jr's Journey and Bowser's Minions set in the present, that might maybe explain that plot element?
That's what we call a non-canonical nod. Don't go taking it so seriously.
It's like Shrowser actually saw us not dodging on all the bosses and the bros. still won, so Shrowser says that the Mario Bros. can't attack at all. That must have been how Shrowser caused the challenge to fail.
Love your vids bro
