    @Flygoniaks Před měsícem +1796

    Unironically, Pokémon Conquest has arguably one of the most in-depth postgames of any Pokémon spinoff. In fact, it's so insane that the main story might as well be the tutorial.
    After you beat the main story, you basically unlock "scenarios" where you play at the various warlords and other characters. Literally EVERY single character with a unique sprite has a scenario where you play as them, and there's even characters who don't appear in the main story at all. Each scenario has a different objective (such as conquering Ransei _under a time limit,_ or accumulating a certain number of allies), and many scenarios restrict you to only certain regions of the overall map. In addition, the postgame scenarios have much greater depth mechanically - you can upgrade various facilities in the kingdoms, and the enemy's AI is dynamic and can straight-up attack you and try to steal your kingdoms, or if there are multiple AI factions, they can even attack _each other._ Finally, the Pokémon each warrior is linked to, and the status of the warriors themselves, is carried between scenarios - for example, if you find a warrior's "Perfect Link" (basically the species of Pokémon they are most compatible with), or meet the difficult conditions to "transform" a warrior (upgrading their skills) in one scenario, this will carry over if you recruit the same warrior in another scenario. You can even straight-up recruit _the protagonist_ when playing as other characters, depending on the scenario.
    Keep in mind that almost everything I'm mentioning here is _postgame exclusive_ - the main story lacks many of these features, and mainly serves to let you learn the basics and battlefields.

    • @owlsthirdeye6174
      @owlsthirdeye6174 Před měsícem +233

      And then at the end if you complete all the scenarios you unlock the true campaign, which is the first one with no hand holding, all mechanics unlocked and every warlord retaining the upgrades you gave them. It's crazy.

As well as a Reshiram quest which was something I didn't even know was a thing 12 years ago when the game came out. There's so much to do in this game and I love it.

      @@wolf2403 From what I can tell in the highlights, I think Dan's main issue is that he's simply rushing into things too quickly, with teams that are notably weaker than you're supposed to have at this point. He should probably do just a little bit of grinding until his team's strength is on par with the kingdoms he's trying to invade.
      I do recall Yoshihiro (the guy with the Gurdurr) being a bit of a roadblock for newer players, since it's a Fighting-type kingdom when the protag and Oichi's Perfect Links are Normal-Type.

    The only time I saw anything about it around its release was at the very back of a gaming magazine as "coming soon", and i never saw it in the DS game isles at the shops I went to, so I just assumed the games production had been cancelled or something.

    I think the funniest thing is that Yoshimoto is actually the easiest fight in the game because if you just push his Gurrdurr off the edge it takes like 4 turns to get back on the arena because it’s so slow (source: I used Yoshimoto’s Gurrdurr and it can only move like 3 spaces per turn)

    • @GoldenOwl_YouTube
      @GoldenOwl_YouTube Před měsícem +33

    Just for your information, RT, the requirements for capturing a warrior are as follows: 1) Beat them within 4 turns. 2) Finish them with a super-effective attack. *Or* 3) You defeat them without letting that warrior attack you. Additionally, warlords (indicated by the gold background and by being unique) *must* be defeated by other warlords to be recruited. Finally, no warriors can be recruited if that nation has other kingdoms under its control (as you will see later in the story).
    Additional notes: Hideyoshi, Motonari, and Motochika cannot be recruited during the main story. However, Motonari and Motochicka *can* be recruited if you connect to the Nintendo Wi- I mean, enter a special password that the devs cleverly put into the game two whole years before the DS was brought offline for good. It's also through these passwords that you can unlock three of the campaigns and a legendary Pokemon that aren't otherwise unlockable.
    You will notice that in order to permanently save a Pokemon to a warrior, you have to battle with that Pokemon at least once (indicated by the gold symbol next to the Pokemon during the results screen). This is important because if you evolve a Pokemon and then complete the campaign without battling with that newly evolved Pokemon, that evolved Pokemon will not carry over to the next campaign. It's also important because you do not want to register No into the gallery without her Drifloon. Drifloon is not an easy Pokemon to find, so having it on No is critical (and should be noted that in some campaigns of hers, she starts with a Misdreavus instead of her Drifloon)

All of the mechanics and unique ideas it had, along with the fact that you have about a million different campaigns to play make it such an enthralling experience. For me I always loved the Perfect Sync and Player Evolution stuff cause it was super cool to me to see the characters getting a change as well, especially in a time before character customization in Pokemon. I only wish there was some kind of harder difficulty, but to be fair I'm older now and have plenty of experience in strategy games so it makes sense that the Pokemon strategy game isn't terribly difficult haha. Anyways, I continue to hope and pray for a remake.

    It’s amazing seeing this game again cause I played it as a kid and I don’t remember 90% of the stuff that is happening. I had no idea you could catch Pokémon, shop, or even change your team so I played the entire game with an umbreon, a jigglypuff, and a luxio I got from the electric warlord. Man I was dumb.

    RT there are three tips that can help you
    1. In the fighting dudes Arena the enemy focuses on the flags more than destroying your soul, so let them have it then kick them off of it
    2. The layout of castles is harder than the actual enemies (or your own Pokemons strength)
    3. Have fun and enjoy the game....might wanna keep Mareep from evolving fully though it's not worth it (or maybe it is idk)

    I miss when we had a ton of spinoffs. Also, Conquest is amazing and we need more of it. Either a new Conquest, maybe a Pokémon Dynasty in warring states China, idk maybe the ancient war from XY would be neat.
    Also there's a theory that the events of Conquest take place in modern day and Ransei is just REALLY closed off. It has mechanized factories, wind farms, a connected computer system, air travel, and MEWTWO.

      As a kid I swear to god I recall an NPC mentioning something about a theory or something about another Pokemon World where they capture them in balls, and I swear it was the Grass Kingdom's Warlord, or one of the old man events. I can't recall if I just misunderstood or not, but I am of the belief Ransei is in an alternate universe, since they explicitly don't use any form of pokeballs, and instead form bonds.

On the copy he's gotten me I have gotten 100% of the pokedex and gotten every main (golden) character to 100% link with their perfect partners. My save file is over 300 hrs long and I've played at least 100 on my other brothers copy as well. I 100% recommend this game to anyone who likes pokemon or fire emblem in any aspect. The longest campaign I ever had was august of the year 327. I have 999 of almost every item from farming money for 50 years or so. I almost fell out of my chair when I saw that RT made a video on it.

You can find a ton of different comments talking about the great things about Conquest, but the main thing that I want to focus on is the SOUNDS, which are just phenomenal. Music aside, all different sorts of things in Conquest have killer sound effects, from any selection process, to the sheer impact of any given attack, to the different effects of the floor tiles. Maybe it's just nostalgia talking, but I just love everything here.
