  • @verdethestarwarrior1088
    @verdethestarwarrior1088 Před 3 lety +839

    Some tips for those who don’t know exactly how Honey Trees work:
    1) Every time you slather honey on a tree, there is a 10% chance that you won’t get a Pokémon from it. You can tell if this happens by checking the tree immediately after applying honey to it. If it doesn’t say “the bark is slathered with honey,” then you have to reapply it
    2) Save before checking a tree. Your encounter is determined when you apply the honey 6 hours before, but the Pokémon’s nature, gender, level, and ability can still be random. If you get a Combee from a tree, there’s nothing stopping you from constantly resetting to try and get a female

      Is it hard to catch the Munchlax, if you know what trees will spawn in? I'm not sure how often it appears, but I know there's a fairly simple code to figure out which trees can attract it.

    • @superjirachi5981
      @superjirachi5981 Před 3 lety +11

      Die4Dethklok its a one percent encounter rate in four trees out of the 21 in the Sinnoh region (two of which you can find using using your trainer ID other two are based on your secret ID which you can’t figure out without hacking the game). You slather honey on a tree and then you have to wait 6 hours before an encounter shows up (if one even shows up at all). And you can’t push the clock ahead because of how the gen 4 games work. It’s not necessarily hard to catch, it’s just hard to encounter.

    The creators of Pokémon themselves are the ones who said: "There is no official pronunciation for any of these". Go ham, my dude.

      I rarely read things aloud, and when I read in my head, I don't actually think about how a name is supposed to be pronounced. I just have the first letter then a bunch of white noise and only recognise it when it's written down. Occasionally I'll replace the white noise with random letters that only kind of make sense.
      I've tried to think more about pronunciation since I came to the embarrassing realisation that I'd been pronouncing Imladris from Lord of the Rings as himalayas (but without the h), even though I'd also seen the films.

    @frosted_glaceon5513 Před 3 lety +1

    I swear, God must have had faith in me because I actually got a Munchlax spawn off of a honey tree as my first encounter without trying. I didn't use it because I already had a Lopunny, but I still kept it as a trophy Pokemon. In the words of Chuggaaconroy: "Feel blessed, because that is what you are if you encounter this thing."
    Also, I will say I'm glad you used a Mothim on this run. Most people find it the most forgettable pokemon in gen 4 besides of courde Finneon and Lumineon. It's a little better than people give it credit for, and its shiny is also underrated in my book.
    I also really love how you can find Combee pretty early in X and Y without needing the honey trees. I was super excited and had so much fun using Vespiqueen in the early game. Although it's a little slow and frail for my taste personally. It was interesting interacting with it in Pokemon Amie, since I'm actually terrified of wasps. It's arms are actually realistic wasp arms, and it kinda freaked me out not gonna lie. I love insects, and I've even got a pet tarantula irl, but wasps freak me out.
    One last thing um...I'd really like to see a a run with only buneary or only Lopunny. It's my favorite normal type, and I'm curious as to what he'd name it since it's litterally based off of the playboy bunny. It's a nothing special great baton passer, and I've used several in Nuzlockes in combos with other Pokemon to make use of it. But going off of it's regular moves...I dunno, I think it could be a very interesting run. Lopunny only learns Return if it evolves before level twelve with high friendship. Before then, it has frustration, its gimmick move. I wonder if he would keep bitter medicine on hand to make use of frustration, or if he does choose to evolve it in the run making do without return? Might be fun...Who knows?

      That does sound brutal. Slugma has the lowest base stat total of all Fire type Pokemon. Its move pool is also terrible - its only damaging level move until Level 8 is the incredibly weak Smog, and not only that, Ember is its only Fire type move by level up until Level 36. Roxanne will be tough, and he would almost certainly have to be at Level 100 to have a chance against Wallace. It might be impossible to beat him without Double Team.

    I find these challenges absolutely insane. You complete an entire Pokémon game in the span of just a week WITH incredibly difficult limitations. I can barely finish a Pokémon game in a month while playing just normally.

    I’m glad that you are doing more challenge runs that aren’t Pokémon, it means you can branch out. You also won’t get tired of these Pokémon challenges either. Either way, I’ll be watching no matter what you do

      Are there any super slow fragile pokemon with weak armor? Because that sounds super painful *cough cough* weak armor shuckle for example
      Idea was taken from that hacked pokemon fighting people do, where you can have a Pokemon with any moves, abilities, etc. Then battle other teams of pokemon that get the same rules. I saw a weak armor alakazam using electro ball and that gave me this idea
