  • This is it.... the final battle with Gary Oak! Or Blue since the games came before the show in Japan. In which case, he'd be called Green or Red. Either way, he's the Elite Four champion and he has a good team, which changes depending on the Pokémon you started with. In Yellow, it depends on other things like if you didn't fight him before Viridian Forest or lost to him, mostly it just changes what his Eevee evolves into.
    Just look at him, his hair stands out, almost like an afro. He has the most determined look on his face, and the most boss vest you'll ever see in the world, even though it's 8-bit. He holds a ball in his hand and just... it's too intense. Don't forget those moon boots.
    Oh yeah, as for the fight, it's pretty difficult. I got REALLY close to losing, and I should've avoided messing with metronome but hey, you could always do something epic with it. Blue's Pokémon are mean, tough, and have good attacks (except for Rhydon and Exeggutor). With Gyarados as the final survivor, I reach with one Pokémon, level 50.
    Hate comments like "you suck" are gladly welcome, and good entertainment as well. I clearly made some mistakes in this battle, I hadn't played the game in years before doing this "boss run".
    Was 15 years old when I wrote that description. Kind of cringing... This battle is insanely easy, and since I hadn't really played in a long time I didn't understand how the special stat worked or why the special attacks were bad on Alakazam. I'd thought special was just for attack, otherwise I could've beaten it real easily with probably just 2 attacks of strength with Charizard.
    I also did drag it out a bit having fun with metronome, in general I just wanted to record an entertaining fight. But also, this fight represents essentially what all of us as children would've played out like, hence me not knowing about how dumb the special stat is in this game.

    Today, I have finally beat the final boss on my copy of Red for the 3DS. As I recall, I got it the year it first released on the 3DS virtual console, but while I was still on the Vermillion city gym, I stopped playing because I wasn't really fond of all the grinding. But after hearing that Ash and Pikachu will be leaving the anime after 25 years, I started playing Red along with my copies of Sun and SoulSilver in honour of that iconic duo. And after about 7 years, I finally beat the Elite Four, my rival and finally became world champion. It was a long journey and Lance really did a number o my team, but I pulled through in the end. My team consisted of Venusaur, Raichu, Lapras, Graveler, Kadabra and Aerodactyl, all at level 51. Now that I finally beat the main story mode in Red, there's still Sun and Soulsilver to beat. I'm not entirely sure when I'll beat those as I'm kinda preoccupied with my other games are more responsibilities, but I'm sure I'll beat them someday.

    Interesting how the rival in Red/Green/Blue wears a different outfit for the Champion battle. In Pokémon Yellow, he's just in a different pose, like he's ready to toss his Pokéball onto the battlefield.

    • @Valientlink
      @Valientlink  Před 2 měsíci +1

      It's too bad because in Yellow he's such a pushover. His pokemon may change depending on if you win or lose to him at certain points in the game but they're all weaker pokemon than red/blue. I struggled more with Lance in Yellow change Blue. The better AI made him a pain

  • @jcoffey3
    @jcoffey3 Před 10 lety +5

    You did pretty good considering the lower levels of your pokemon. Everybody always has trouble with Alakazam in this battle because Psychic pokemon had a ridiculous advantage in red blue and yellow since they were only weak against bugs. It always took me forever to get to this point because I never challenged the elite 4 until all my pokemon were at least lv 55. Still brings back some awesome middle school memories for me.

    We never saw the Kanto Rival in the clothes he wore as Champion, until Heartgold and Soulsilver. His Heartgold and Soulsilver clothers are just about the same clothes we saw him wear fighting him as Champion in Pokemon Red and Blue. To be honest, Generation I of Pokemon was a great way to end the original Game Boy with a bang. Pokemon Yellow was the game that ended the original Game Boy with a bang by adding Game Boy Color support for the international releases. Japan had only Super Game Boy support because Game Boy Color didn't come out yet at the time of Pokemon Yellow's Japanese Release.
