I knew someone would comment about it.
I love Heart Gold. On my first play through I decided to catch a Zubat and evolve it into Golbat to fight Morty, as it was fast, knew bite, and was immune to poison. Leveling it up wasn't easy. It fainted a lot at first and I felt bad for the little pixel bat so I would let it follow me and give it haircuts to make it happy. When it evolved into Golbat I figured I would give it a few more levels to be safe, but when it gained another level it evolved into Crobat. Made me really happy 😊
Crobat is probably one of my favourite flying/poison types Iｔｉｓ ｓｏ ｃｏｏｌｌｌ
Honestly, who needs most of the regional birds when Crobat is a very solid story mode Pokémon?
I got gastly so had no need for zubat but if you don't get gastly then zubat is another way to get mean look to catch abra for teleport.
I was using a Zubat in Legends Arceus and it died soooooo much it was so annoying but when it evolved it was overpowered since it was a level 22 Crobat
Nice to see zubat get the spotlight for once

Giving random people a ton of haircuts doesn't work for me. Weird.

...what’s a “friend”?
they both is the worst
29:29: No one is talking about this scene that is speaking the ultimate truth.
I still would choose Typhlosion for this sort of playthrough. Feraligatr may be pretty good itself, but Magcargo honestly weighs it down so much more than Quagsire would do for Typhlosion. 8+2 is less than 6+5, you know.
Could also use Vaporeon.
That too, but I think I'd like to get a different Eeveelution because Water/Ground is too good to pass up on.
@@gengarzilla1685 that combo is great but Quagsire itself has some issues, namely underwhelming stats and Ice Punch onky being available through the Battle Frontier after you’re already champion. If anything you could always use them both but in different roles. Plus Eevee is capable of breeding with both the Typhlosion and Ampharos lines so you could still go with another Eeveelution if you so desired.
He didn't know that when he started
"Uhm ackhsually 8+2 is 10 and 6+5 is 11"-🤓

Smallant wants to know your location
you would be stuck with starter entire game really hard to get a shiny unless you cheat and increase shiny odds.
@@natstar7864 or keep resetting
I can only speak for myself but I liked level grinding, and I'm not saying they should remove the New EXP. Share because I find it useful for evolving Pokémon solely for their dex entries; but if they brought back the on/off option I would be very happy.
I liked giving my team one on one attention so I knew exactly what they could do and how much they could withstand.
Yeah,The X/Y and SM/USUM exp.share was the best
I'd specifically say it's better in SM/USUM since they reintroduced the "higher levels get less exp from lower levels" mechanic. XY's Exp. Share felt kinda excessive without that detail balancing it out.
"Chikorita is not actually a choice, because Im not masochist"

might try this with chikorita on crystal one day
*welp* Guess I’m a masochist now
Ryan Rickman sweet. CHIKORITA GANG ASCEND

@@gengarzilla1685 to be fair, Whitney is MUCH more irritating to battle
Ehh, she's never actually lived up to any of that hype when I battle her. I've won there with an equal levelled Quilava and Noctowl once, two Pokémon you'd think would get flattened by Rollout. No buckets full of potions or X Items either.

Bayleaf is really good for Whitney! It has reflect, poison powder, synthesis, and razor leaf help to hard block. Setting up reflect and then poisoning it twice allows for you to synthesis and potion until the poison timer runs out. Bayleaf is also really bulky, so it can absorb several hits from Whitney.
But to get there you need to go through dollar store Lance the Bird Keeper and a sexy Bug catcher and we know how Meganium cannot stand against them.
Yeah but it will most likely be male, and you will have to worry about attract
@@jameshickman9325 Just reset until you don't get a male.
@@jeffreygao3956 Meganium is good against Whitney. You could catch a Geodude to go against Lance and Bugsy and take care of the issue.
@@sydneymcdonald3171 Unfortunately, Graveler needs to be traded with and who would trade with me only to immediately give the new Golem back? Also, it’s darn slow! Gyarados would hose it!
I had a similar experience with Morty in my recent HeartGold playthrough. In my case, I switched in the level 1 Togepi that hatched from the egg to buy turns to heal one of my other Pokémon, then realized Gengar couldn't do anything against Togepi unless I attacked it. Eventually the Gengar ran out of PP and struggled itself to death.
I had a HootHoot and it was amazing against Gengar.
It had the ability Insomnia so the Hypnosis couldn't do anything.
It's hella disappointing how hard Morty got cucked over in the remake. Swapping that Gengar's Dream Eater for Sucker Punch turned his ace Pokémon from an actual menace to an exploitable joke.
Yeah, the fact they removed dream eater for some reason is so stupid, especially since sucker punch runs off its bad attack anyways. Like, at least give it dark pulse or something.@@gengarzilla1685
"I narrowed my choises down to Totodile and Cyndaquill, Chikorita is not actually a choice beacuse I'm not a masochist." gets me every time.
Which is funny since Chikorita is actually a good counter to Miltank because of Reflect, Leech Seed & Bayleaf being quite bulky
I always find it funny that the one he disses is the one that might answer his problem with her Miltank.
@@gengarzilla1685 It is quite ironic.
my sister went through all of johto with only chikorita/meganium because she loved it so much

Michael: Its over Morty, i have the Espeon

In the original gen 2 games morty is more harder lol because of his hypnosis and dream eater combo in hgss they just nerfed him by replacing dream eater with sucker punch
Haha Star Wars

You underestimate my power!

I started this challenge today! Just got to Goldenrod, picked up Kenya the Spearow and evolved her into Fearow, picked up an Abra from the Game Corner and evolved that into Alakazam. I also went with your strategy picked Totodile as my starter and the 3 eggs from Primo.
So far hating Slugma just like you! Thinking about grinding out some cash to get myself and early Dratini from the Game Corner and swapping Slugma out for it.
Should have gotten Cyndaquill, that way you could have avoided Slugma altogether. That may be my Quagsire bias talking though.
I remember doing the miltank battle on my first heartgold play through with a level 23croconaw, a level 3 gastly, a level 7 mareep, and a level 4 pidgey. It took me 127 tries. It was incredibly annoying (when I finally beat miltank, croconaw was level 31 and it evolved
The funny thing is that Croconaw probably would actually be the best equipped to deal with Miltank simply because it gets rage which you can charge with the Clefairy's pathetic double-slaps beforehand.

So, if we use a Slugma/Macargo against a water type, we'll win?
@@donanasol Hell yeah, he’s clearly the best Pokémon in all of the games
@@donanasol What about a 4x super effective nidoking?
Ya know charcoal helps and you can get it before the second gym
@@suchomimustenerensis omg from the first movie my water type Pokemon but he has nidoqueen lol
Micheal: Why is friendship so hard
Everybody felt that
"Why is friendship so hard?" I feel that on a spiritual level.
You could just rematch trainers to grind Pokemon. Just one call for said day and time and you can challenge them. It isn't part of the challenge anyway and the trainers get stronger as you progress in the game.
You should have named it Hitmontage. Such a missed opportunity.
You know there is something called name rater dude?? Idk if he exists in HGSS

Nice
Named what?
Rude
Michael: Ok I want you to kill this really weak Pokemon-
Slugma: *no*
I'm don't know how you deal with these stressful challenges but all I know is how you are a frickin legend!
"My team really cannot handle electric types well at all."
Wooper: Am I a joke to you?
Mikey: “These take EONS to make.”
Johnstone: “Am I a joke to you?”
Mah Dry Bread: "Tune in next week..."
Sead Kolludra idk how that dude does it lol.
pink grape I think it’s because 99% of his week involved the challenges since the only other videos are letsplays.

Where did macargo
Nice play through, because of this i decided to play HG again after a few years. I also learned a few things, like im not bad the grinding is just too much so it helped to protect my ego somehow XD. I will make a normal play through tho. Have a damn nice day 😁

Had hundreds of hours in this game, had no idea you could get gifted the Mareep Whooper & Slugma!
A lv 100 dynamax magcargo would get ohko by a level 60 lapras with hydro pump
