I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but for Meli's first battle, you can actually select "No," and there will be no battle. I found out by accident since I picked "no" so I could switch my lead Pokemon, and I was surprised to find that the story progressed anyway.
I’m sure every battle might have that
@@BL0XYST1NG3R pokemon usually has no useful dialogue options
@@BL0XYST1NG3Ralmost all of them at least! Because I too wanted to change my lead pokemon when affronting à certain someone but he didn't give me a choice when I said no!
Of course it's Volo (the 2nd time you fight him, in the crimson Mirelands ruins)
Bro I did that and it just kicked me out until I said yes
33:04 For some reason I didn't think about actually...battling Dialga, so I went directly to throwing balls to capture it. I had one random pokeball in my bag, so I threw that first, and caught it immediately. Turns out Dialga is _not_ a guaranteed capture.
i actually did almost the same thing. i hit it once and had an extra move and said fck it and threw a ball and caught it right then lol
I once caught a groudon in ruby with a single, normal pokeball and no attacks
If a legendary Pokemon requires you to catch it as part of the game's main story, it tends to be given a high catch rate so players can progress easily. But it's not usually a guaranteed capture.
The flags for the events in the game are so simple but so effective to prevent the breaking of the game
It's so refreshing to see a game that handles events in a sane manner (even if it does ruin any chances of like, sub-multi-hour speedruns), lmfao. Especially after the (glorious) disaster that is Security Breach.
@@CeledonianError ah yes security breach speedruns are wild
Kxhlxh flags 😅? I'm too dumb to decipher what you're talking about mbxvmzgk
"Flags" are a game design term used to refer to individual bits (1/8th of a byte) that are set depending on various factors.
The most common use is for story flags, where the game checks "have you seen or done this particular thing?" and changes the world state based on that.
Put in non-computer-speak, a Flag is basically a marker saying “you’ve done this thing” - kinda like an actual flag. If the Flag is up, the game will act different than if it’s down.
For a metaphorical example, a pirate crew takes over an island, so they raise a flag to show that they’ve done so. Now if someone else checks the island, they’ll see that the pirates have taken it and stay away.
For an in-game example, the player reaches research level 1. This raises the flag for ‘research level 1 obtained’, so now the person guarding the bridge can look at the flag, see that it’s raised, and let you through to the next area instead of blocking you off.
I don"t think that the clan leaders just have a random eevee appear but it is there other partner and since they don"t use poke balls they have it fight you along with the other
actually its a really cool thing they do with the game. Basically, since the clan guys don't believe in pokeballs, all of their pokemon battles are like wild battles basically, but all of their pokemon out instead.
Wait since they don't use pokeballs does that mean you can catch their pokemon
@@neroisntdead3681 Theoretically? Yes. In-Game? No, because that's rude and this is a trainer battle.
@@neroisntdead3681 Probably not, actually, master balls don’t exist yet and Pokemon can break out of the ball if they want to.

I wonder how the npc's feel when female professor oak falls out the sky then proceeds to ignore everybody and saves the world in about 5 hours
It probably makes them think that that person is even more of a god than they are.
Excuse me? Where is female professor oak?
@@ilovecairns5181player character's name is Gary Oak lmao
Ingame time would actually be a few day to a couple weeks, since he slept a bunch.
She ignored everyone in town and saved the world in a few weeks.
Pretty common for a Pokémon protag.
for those wondering, the chance of getting 2 Silcoon and 2 Cascoon out of 4 Wurmples is 6 in 16, or 3 in 8, or 37.5%.
pascal's triangle is fun, i like it
damn u really are a math king
Can you explain Pascal’s triangle please
Evolve at night to get cascoon, evolve at day to get silcoon
@Ahmad that's not how it works. It's strictly RNG based. ToD means nothing.
@@dusklunistheumbreon really? Because i've tried It several times and it works like that.
I wonder how long a 100% speedrun of this game will be
Speedrunning the flames and unown sounds annoying ngl
But can't be worse than koroks
Think about it, shiny pokemon are technically a part of the pokedex, as it has a "color" option, so I'll give it 10 years for a 100% run
@@floorpanel8749 shiny are pretty easy to come by with the time distortions and Pokemon breakouts it will still a long time but probably not 10 years
took me i think 50 hours
@@floorpanel8749 shinies dont count for that, in order to get a 100% in arceus you have to get a level 10 research with every pokemon
This was my first pokemon game, and I found it very charming how literally every issue in this entire universe is resolved by whipping a Pokeball at it.
Speedrun tip: You can catch the lake guardian bosses, and the balms you throw at Azelf don't need to be aimed anywhere near it.
@Raisyya^13⭐ stop
Unfortunately even *hitting* Azelf doesn't count either...
I knew what the game wanted, but it'd still be nice for it to acknowledge if you *actually hit Azelf*
@@dusklunistheumbreon I think that just adds to the test; do you continue even if your success isn't being acknowledged?
@@treehugger0241 Maybe say that, works too ig. But say something dammit
I didn't know that. I wanted that Alpha Zoroark
Ah yes this speed run really is harder than you think (at least from what I remember) lots of preparation for this definitely.

That is until some guy just find a glitch and just skip all the dialogues, boss fights and areas
you say this as if the game didnt come out like a month ago or so
You can tell this game was NOT meant for speedrunning, still cool to watch tho
If Legends: Arceus becomes interesting I bet it will do so by the same means any% in Skyward Sword became less than 5 hours to speedrun
Yea they made so anti-speedrun that glitched is only slightly faster
I'm no speedrunner, but I'm always more interested in story than gameplay, so I tried to zoom through the story and got bodied. The game is definitely designed for you to chill at each area for a while.
@@treehugger0241 I zoomed through the story no problem but I was also trying to catch every single Pokémon. I caught all that I seen and tried maxing out the research for every Pokémon that was close. Catching Alphas got me through the story no problem.
@@iantaakalla8180 People have been digging, and the way event flags were made in the programming of this game, sequence breaks are essentially nonexistant, or not very useful. It's been a rough task for people who have been searching.
Imagine a 100 percent run of this game, so all dexes perfected, all requests done, all the story done and getting arceus.
It'd be pain
The amount of hours spent just sleeping to reset capture tables…

It wouldn't be an EazySpeezy run if he didn't repeatedly get something's name wrong and had the editor make fun of him for it.
He bastardised almost everything
It's frankly surprising how speedrun-proof this game has been so far. There's definitely at least one major game breaking glitch, but it's not useful for speedrunning because of how the game is programmed.
There is a way to cross water without Basculin by walking on top of your own Pokėmon (no I'm not kidding) but it's really slow and isn't very useful unfortunately
@@LilacMonarch Yeah, I'm familiar with the bibarel bridge method. It's funny, but definitely not useful for speedruns.
The major game breaking glitch I was referring to was the ability to go out of bounds. Because of all the invisible walls extending below the map and the inability to return or navigate it without braviary and Sneasler, it's entirely useless.
The game is basically programmed in a way that makes skipping parts essentially impossible.
Yet.
If Legends Arceus is breakable, it will be breakable the same way Skyward Sword is breakable. So I don’t think there will be any major skips for at least five more years.
omg!! big fan and am completely honored by the shoutout - your content is one of the reasons I got into speedrunning so its really fun to see my notes come to life in one of your videos! 😀
Do you think Arceus stays in Hisui, because he too fears what he has created?
Ah, I see, you are also curious about Legends Arceus lore
And also, maybe????
Nice Spy Kids 2 reference
He isn’t in the past
5:25 40 minutes of speedrun, “this was now a great start!”
Eazy you probably won’t see this, but there’s a much easier way I found in my casual playthrough to get to holm of trials before you get basculegion. There’s a place by the river that has a really easy jump that’s quick to get to and you don’t have to do scuffed dear jumps. I don’t remember where exactly it is, but I believe it’s pretty much right next to ursalunas area.
Never forget the countless battles fought on the obsidian firelands

Dude, I just finished "well and truly" completing the PokéDex and getting the Shiny Charm right before watching this. It took me 129 hours.
These speedrun videos are not only great runs, they are perfect summaries of games we might want to play. Well done EazySpeezy
You know that this is a great game based on the fact he can't just glitch to the end.
Agreed
Until people find out how

@@devilisdutch you have a point, every game has a breaking point
Don’t know if anyone mentioned this, but an optimization you could make when switching out Pokémon in the pastures is pressing Y to get the move cursor and skip the pop up menu.

Wow that was a fast speedrun
These runs are so complicated! I tried it out during release week, and it wasn't anything like I expected!
@Wesney-----💞 bot
My PB is 6:03:58
It is an honor to know that the legendary Gary Oak has chosen Oshawott as their starter.
I already know this is amazing before seeing it.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you weren’t done, you still had Arceus, who is the real final boss
Me: I want Pokemon Legends Arceus Speedrun
The Speedrun we got:
Me: I love it
Fun fact, you cannot catch all 3 starters in the same scene, as for some reason it only detects 1 being caught, even if you threw pokeballs at all 3 of em.
I was soooooo hoping you would do this! I was super curious how runners were going to route this game with the way the star rank system works. Such a great video.
“On our way we pick up a smartphone that lets us talk to god.” ….. “So that’s cool.”
Wait, you start the timer while you’re talking to Arceus?
Interesting… In Zelda, you don’t start the timer until Zelda stops telling you to wake up and you can control Link
The time it took him to beat the game was the time it took me to get Wyrdeer.
Can’t wait for the eldin ring speed run 👍
Melli is my one of my favorite characters. He's just so mean, it's hilarious. He really just HAS to argue with everyone and be a massive nuisance and I love it.
I know your comment is old but I had to reply cuz this is the first time someone says they like Melli and yeah, SAME. Love his nasty attitude.
I love how you used "Skyrim Horse" as a verb.
One thing you could’ve done to shorten your time is in the pastures menu if you press y, you’ll enter switch mode so you can move and swap pokemon around without having to enter their summary menu’s
Dude really turned a 5 hour Speedrun into a 30 min video. Bless 🙌
I've been playing this game for a bit and i found a strat. With basculegion you can use the second Jump Just as you touch the water and you can chain this without having to stay in the water and recharge
I'm surprised the dialogue by itself didn't take 5 hours. I'm still slowly going through it because every time I finish something I don't want to sit through more dialogue so I save and turn the game off
@Wesney-----💞 no.
literally!! i've been putting off doing the post game cuz i fear the dialogue
@@bananamilkyy I'm surprised you made it to post game. I'm a little past when you unlock the second location to adventure
So RPGs?
I love this game, but OMG PLEASE LET US SKIP DIALOGUE 💀💀 my second play through has been 90% me mashing the a button
I'm impressed how you tricked us into believing it was a Pokémon speedrun when, really, it was a mispronunciation speedrun! ;P
I literally love ur vids bro keep it up
the fact that 1 minute into the video, and there is 11:20 on the timer, and it’s a 30 min video tells me this was a VERY long speedrun. i respect that
Behold, with the power of 3 ordinary bidoofs,
you too can achieve MAXIMUM flight at the cost of your graphics card.
“(Arcane)movement was pretty easy” manneee that killed me twice, and that was most stressful noble :(
This is insanely complicated, and I thought my respect for you was already maxed, but you somehow made it go up even more.

You beat me to the punch, Was gonna have my video detailing the speedrun on Thursday. Ggs
Can’t believe I just watched an entire video of someone playing LA normally
"on the way we pick up a smartphone to talk to god, so thats pretty cool"
bro said it like he picked up a random phone off the ground 💀
EazySpeezy is really tryna to speedrun all mainstream games, thx anyway man
Here's a suggestion for next time: Getting a black border in Bloons TD 6, i.e. beating every difficulty mode on one map
I really really love your speedruns all of them keep up the great content
Congratulations for this speedrun! I'm surprised to see a speedrun on this game since it's different from any other game.
I love these vids give me a lot of tips on games
The fact you called many locations and Pokémon by the wrong names really got me
Yes finally he did this game I’ve been waiting for the chaos
YES A SPEEDRUN OF ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GAME
I think the speedrun format should include up to the Volo fight as that is BY FAR the hardest battle in the game's main story.
The routing to have a viable team for that fight could be tough. But then again there’s a L85 alpha garchomp available, and Cresselia’s signature move is busted (although that much RNG at the end of such a long run would be 😬)
good at speed runs + have good vids=eazyspeezy
I was rewatching your videos and bam, new video XD
Neat analysis & run video! Thanks for uploading!
I find it amusing that the speedrun of a game called Pokemon Legend Arceus ends before catching Arceus
Ah yes the hardest part of the speedrun.
Trying to say words
Obsidian Firelands.
The planet truly is a giant Torkoal!
I haven’t seen much if this game or played it so I’m excited to watch this
Been waiting for this speedrun ever since the game released
I'm still amazed at the luck I had in my dialga battle, so usually instead of actually battling legendaries I just sit there throwing normal pokeballs at them until they're caught with, no battling or anything, but with legends arceus the VERY first pokeball I threw at dialga caught it, no status moves or lost HP or anything, I literally caught it with my very first pokeball
Excellent (and funny!) Editing, like always!
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS
thanks to this game not being broken and with how it works i wonder what the speedrun will be like in a year as you need some routing for research tasks but if your lucky you could get rare pokemon so you need to adapt to what your given. also what is actually the optimal fighting style for the nobles as fighting gives you increased damage but takes time to do where your not damaging.
It's weird seeing Volo when he's helping others again, because..you know
It's not often I see a speedrun of a game I'm currently playing, so that's neat.
I just saw this video in my recomended Ive been waiting for this
I love how he calls drifblim a drifloon
The editing corrects Firelands every time but just ignores this?
someone’s probably mentioned this already, but at 16:15, that isn’t a random eevee. that’s just how the scripted battle is, as opposed to the multiple party member style of mainline games (sometimes). I guess they just made it like a wild battle, since you can have more than one pokémon show up there too.
Honestly, I was kinda waiting for this. I am curious how it goes.
I am struggling to go up in star levels so this helped a lot
technically the story doesnt end until you get arceus
the reason random pokemon show up when fighting diamond and pearl members is because they are against pokeballs so their pokemon follow them instead
This guy should speed run Pokémon Violet, I’m sure there would be some pretty cool movement skips
He actually did it. I salute to you Speezy
I was genuinely so upset with Volo’s change post-game, he was my favorite character alongside Adaman
Idk about everyone else, but Volo always seemed a bit off the moment I met him, and I kinda expected him to change at some point in the game
@@Royal_Sniper Ye the moment we met him I was like “Oh hey, there’s the villain later.” Lol
I like that Eazy knows how to PROPERLY pronounce Arceus

I actually found a good way to deal with Kleavor is to hide behind the tree in the middle, constantly gets Kleavor stunned when it charges at you.
9:28 Haha the wisp and then goodnite part was so funny.
I'm glad my favorite Pokemon (Arcanine) actually has an active role in this game. However, I do prefer the normal form of it, but I'm not complaining too much.
Growlithe be looking rough though lol 🤣
@Brawler Okay, I'm not gonna crucify you for having an opinion the majority of Twitter. I just prefer the OG Growlithe/Arcanine because it's what I grew up with, plus I'm a big fan of Sword/Sheild. Also, the OG Arcanine was actually supposed to be Legendary at some point, but that idea was sadly scrapped.
sure, the other "trainers" having only one pokemon isn't the most fun battling wise. but it's like that because it's something special to own a pokemon. the galaxy team invented the balls and before that, people befriend pokemon. IF they befriend them, because most of them are afraid of getting eaten by them
The start of this game is one of the most painful things I have ever experienced. How someone has the patience and attention span to speed run this game is insane on it's own. Having to restart this game just 2 or 3 times is like pulling teeth.
I just had a thought, not sure if this would save much time on speedruns or not, but I discovered the little small hop a ball does instead of that two shake jump is a guaranteed capture, so you can just walk away as soon as it does a little hop
