Hey, Jrose! I know you probably won't see this, but thank you! Your videos brought me great joy for the entirety of 2020. These red/blue runs are really the best...

Hello Jrose, how is it going. I think your strategy this time was suboptimal and didn't really made use of the full potential of Slowpoke. I've actually done this challenge myself before and I managed to win at level 69 (leveled just after beating Venusaur) and the main reason is one move that Slowpoke learns and is super useful in this run: Earthquake. While it has the same power as Dig, it made the Agatha fight much more consistent because it 1HKOs both Gengar and the Haunter without needing to set up Amnesia and without spending more turns confused like with Dig, which gives you much more tries at Lance. He is very difficult ironically because his "good IA" is actually good, he doesn't use barrier or agility because Slowpoke is a Psychic type. The second mistake was teaching Surf, not being able to get rid of it is huge in runs like this and it isn't actually that good because the Elite 4 pokemon weak to it are also weak to Ice Beam and Blizzard (with the exception of Arcanine, but you can 1HKO it with Psychic after 3 amnesia). Having the extra move gives you room for things like reflect, mimic or even substitute. In the end Slowpoke is not as good as Poliwag, but it's definitely better than Bulbasaur, so I'd say the final rank was accurate. I enjoy your content a lot so don't take this criticism as an attack or anything, please keep producing quality content and forgive me for any grammatical mistakes, English is not my first language.
@@unwithering5313 Lol the crit moves in Gen 1 aren't broken. Maybe if better Pokemon got them. Venasaur, Victreebel and Persian, and Kingler are the only ones that benefit a lot from it.
@@GlitchyNoibat A few glitch pokemon are fairly stable, and missingno is the most stable of them pretty much. I think he could just swap it in as starter like he usually does.
Bro, listen, Jrose - you are quickly turning into my favorite CZcamsr across the board. I’m not talking just Pokémon challenges, I’m talking everything. Your dedication to excellence is astounding and very inspiring. Thank you for everything you do, if you’re ever in NYC , I would love to buy you a drink and pick your brain. Cheers, mate.
I feel like it will be sort of the opposite run. It's going to have way more of a problem getting past Brock then Slowpoke. However once it learns thunderbolt and swift the elite 4 shouldn't be too much trouble with its speed.
@@zeaferjones1404 It's gonna have to be at a stupidly high level though. Bruno's first Onix is gonna take forever to whittle down and Agatha will be even more of a nightmare than usual, it's also gonna have issues against Blue's Rhydon. Voltorb doesn't even get Agility in Gen 1 so it can't boost it's stats at all, Magnemite would be way worse though.
@@Alex_Off-Beat Magnemite has good special. Voltorb lacks that fundamental stat because it's only speed. Both are bad for a solo run but lacking the power is huge.
most of the pokemon on the table are preevolved pokemon which have much lower stats and cannot be considered representative of the generation as a whole’s average finishing level
@@ewhiteman27 aren’t there like 50 pre-evolved in gen 1? So a third of pop is fairly representative, especially since his stated purpose was to do all pre-evolved.
@@wideright7567 it is a third of the total population of the generation, but it is the third of the population with the lowest average stats. in the quote the original comment was talking about he says “most pokemon,” not “most preevolved pokemon,” so it can be assumed that he is talking about most of the pokemon in the generation as a whole, which would be able to finish the run at a lower average level.
Everytime I see that there's still the other half of the video left when you get to the elite 4 I die a bit inside. But then I get happy because a realize there's still more jrose to watch. :)
I've been rewatching these lately and I take immense pleasure in looking at the timestamp when you finish the gyms because it's always comical when there's only six battles left and still half an hour of video to watch. Love your stuff, can't wait for the next new one!
I feel like a dog waiting for your videos. I always think: "is he gone now :(((? Will he upload again soon?" And then I'm insanely happy once I see your new video in my subbox.
Jrose you are so awesome for making these videos, the nostalgia hits so hard and I swear I could listen to your voice talk about anything. I hope you get as much joy out of making them as I do watching them, thank you❤️
Missed a generation 1 run so much! I watched all the previous so many times since the start of this awful situation (March 2020 here in Italy). Happy to see a new one now, we all look forward to the complete 53 episodes series!
I really want to see Snorlax now. It’s got great attack, great HP, ok special, and one of the best move pools available. The only drawback is it’s speed and it’s still 2x slobro’s. Also, since Munchlax isn’t a thing in this generation, it technically counts as a pre-evolved Pokémon, although I’d understand if you maybe didn’t count it that way, since it is a single-stage Pokémon.
@@nickperryman3662 I was kinda using the loosest possible definition there. Snorlax would technically count, since his first stage doesn’t exist yet. Other Pokémon who would qualify under these terms would be ones like Magmar, Electabuzz, and Jynx. I don’t think you’re wrong if you count any/all of these mons as fully evolved though, since none of them evolve and frankly what I was doing was using a technicality to stretch the definition.
“Sloooooooooooooooo *finishes video and also the Pokemon first movie in nostalgia* ooooooooooooooooooooooo...” wow, he’s still at it... haha. Loved that scene
Clefairy is an amazing mon. Between defense curl, BoltBeam, STAB Body slam, Psychic for poison types and bubble beam for hikers during the early game you can basically defeat most trainers with no problem. Top 6 on my list, around the same level as Poliwag, Slowpoke, Tentacool and Omanyte (No one can beat Gastly) PS: I think Jrose should do another run with Squirtle, this time with Withdraw instead of body slam just to be a fair run.
HI Jrose! I just found your channel recently and I have been hooked, binging so many of your really well made challenge runs. I love your content keep it up! I can’t really donate so I hope my sub is enough to support you ❤️
I'm happy you're back to doin the OG preevolved. I've been watching the other videos, but I'm excited to see a full tier list of the non evolved Pokemon. Edit: I think Slowpoke should have been wedged between Bulba, and Pika. It seems like you had less headache with Bulba, and it being one of the first videos could have ended up in a slower time. With the problems, combined with the higher level. Just my thoughts.
"Oh man, he's made it to victory road. Let's see how much close to the end we are. . Ogod no." Boy howdy 2020 still isn't done with Jrose having half of the video be E4 battles. :(
JRose, I gotta say I just started getting more into CZcams other than magic the gathering videos, and I just found your channel and I'm getting such a kick out of everything you do. You'd think one night get bored of binge watching the same battles with different pokemon but you make it so damn exciting every run. Your personality shines through so much, you deserve the success you've seen so far and all the future success to come.
I've wondered what slowpoke tails actually taste like? Does it feel pain in its tail? Does that mean slowbro is in constant pain? If it doesn't, then why is it bad that Team Rocket wants to profit off of pokemon? We do that with battling. Does that mean pay day is bad?
I'm pretty sure Slowpoke doesn't feel anything in its tail, and that it grows back. I don't think the problem with the tail harvesting was stated, but I'd imagine that, if it were stated, it would be that they were being jerks about it rather than caring for the Slowpokes and making sure their tails grow back properly. The message that people and Pokemon are supposed to help eachother out is a pretty big thing for the series.
-Slowpoke tails ooses out a sweet sap, that's how Slowpoke fishes. People in Alola dry the tail and simmer it with salt. -It doesn't feel pain in its tail if its bitten or taken off, also it sometimes falls off on its own. It actually grows back and Slowpoke don't even notice. -Slowbro can't feel pain actually because the Shellder on its tail is poisoning him to both make him stand on his legs and not feel any pain. The shellder keeps biting Slowbro's tail because it loves its taste, if it ever comes off, Slowbro becomes a regular Slowpoke again. -As for Team Rocket, i guess it's because Slowpoke's tail is necessary to him unlike coins from Pay Day which is useless for Pokémons.
Honestly with how luck-based the "not razor leaf" thing became with venusaur, I think you easily could have just saved at the rival instead of grinding levels. I know its not a thing you like doing, but you even said you didn't lose a single time at any of the other pokemon and then just kept getting rancid luck at the final hurdle.
I will disagree. He has a 33% chance of losing everytime. That's pretty huge. It's a luck based strategy for slowpoke to beat the game, and that should rank it lower imo. It certainly will take more time if you have to reset if you lose.
@@hihi-rg9vv 33% chance of losing every time meaning 66% chance of that not happening. The fact that it KEPT happening many times in a row is more on his luck than his strategy. Every single other member of the elite four but Lorelei I think gave him problems in one run or another. Even Bruno got victories this time. He never lost to the rival at anything but Venusaur and that was only because he kept getting Razor Leaf'd and that one unlucky crit on Mega Drain. *shrugs In the end he didn't even win off levels. He won because it didn't hit him with razor leaf. He could have gone to 100 and that might still have been the case. The final battle was 100% luck, so therefore a save before the rival until he didn't get razor'd would have been totally acceptable IMO.
@@ArchfiendRai You might want to rewatch the video though. He only got hit by razor leaf like 3 times and he was also knocked out by megadrain. He simply needed quite a bit of luck for all the things to happen to win. Also let's not forget he needed plenty of luck too to avoid getting hyperbeamed to death by Lance. The fact that it took so many tries to get through to Lance should tell you something.
"If we look at the chart, I mean, most Pokemon were able to do this in the sixties." Only five out of eighteen, actually. And two of those were level 69 ayyyyy
5 battles left, 27 minutes left. This is gonna be a wild ride.

The shellder keeps biting Slowbro's tail because it loves its taste, if it ever comes off, Slowbro becomes a regular Slowpoke again.

Honestly with how luck-based the "not razor leaf" thing became with venusaur, I think you easily could have just saved at the rival instead of grinding levels. I know its not a thing you like doing, but you even said you didn't lose a single time at any of the other pokemon and then just kept getting rancid luck at the final hurdle.
I will disagree. He has a 33% chance of losing everytime. That's pretty huge. It's a luck based strategy for slowpoke to beat the game, and that should rank it lower imo. It certainly will take more time if you have to reset if you lose.
@@hihi-rg9vv 33% chance of losing every time meaning 66% chance of that not happening. The fact that it KEPT happening many times in a row is more on his luck than his strategy. Every single other member of the elite four but Lorelei I think gave him problems in one run or another. Even Bruno got victories this time. He never lost to the rival at anything but Venusaur and that was only because he kept getting Razor Leaf'd and that one unlucky crit on Mega Drain.
*shrugs
In the end he didn't even win off levels. He won because it didn't hit him with razor leaf. He could have gone to 100 and that might still have been the case. The final battle was 100% luck, so therefore a save before the rival until he didn't get razor'd would have been totally acceptable IMO.
@@ArchfiendRai You might want to rewatch the video though. He only got hit by razor leaf like 3 times and he was also knocked out by megadrain. He simply needed quite a bit of luck for all the things to happen to win.
Also let's not forget he needed plenty of luck too to avoid getting hyperbeamed to death by Lance.
The fact that it took so many tries to get through to Lance should tell you something.
Venusaur with razor leaf: "I'm about to end this man's whole career"
I have long waited for this episode and I'm not disappointed with it.
Especially after seeing Slowpoke place in the rank.
Great Job, J and Slowpoke.
Love the vids, not sure if I enjoy Pokémon or just your style. Keep it up, more frequent vids please
Clicked slower than Slowpoke holding a Lagging Tail!
I guess this will be a Slow run huh?
Don't poke fun at my pun

@@Xapheion101 clever...
I was just wondering where you've been! Super excited to watch the video!
Loving the videos man, keep em up!
"If we look at the chart, I mean, most Pokemon were able to do this in the sixties." Only five out of eighteen, actually. And two of those were level 69 ayyyyy
Nice
Hey guys! I heard someone beat these games with just a Ditto! Isn't that amazing???
