I Beat Pokemon Platinum Without Gaining EXP

- In the Pokemon games, earning experience points is the most important part of progressing through the game, but how difficult would the game be if you never earned any in battle? Today we're going to find out how easily you can beat Pokemon Platinum without earning EXP. This video took a lot of time and effort to put together, so I'd really appreciate it if you shared this with a friend. If you have any suggestions for the next video, leave it in the comments below! Have a great day :)

the level of shame every gym leader, the elite four, and Cynthia must feel after being beaten by a dude that grabbed wild pokemon and didn't even bother to train them...
I mean the dude befriended legendaries and captured 4 of them, sooo that’s worth something
Still not as embarrassing as people who lose the Ash
To be fair, his pokemon still earns a little bit of evs but it probably doesn't even matter
@@faisfaizal5194 in gen 4, Evs only effect stats upon level-up, so there are no effects on the run
I just finished Pokémon moon, and all the characters go on and on about the bond between a Pokémon and it’s trainer. It comes up *so often*. This just proves how it’s bullcrap, and I love it. ;)
John looked MAD confused live when Torterra gave that 1 EXP lol.
BROOOOOO Y U SOPIL TEH MOVE?!!!!!!?one (THIS COMMENT IS A JOKE.)
@@roberthgamer6311 what does this mean
@@noahlaven2405 you need a high iq to understand the language of the gamer /j
@@NitroNotate oooooh like 2010 language
Aka “Can you beat Pokemon Platinum with the exact team 9yo me used after spending 2 days being bitchslapped by Garchomp?”
What were the pokemon you used when you were 9yo?
Let me guess, your starter, staravia, giratina, bidoof, buizel, and a random graveler you caught in victory road
Did y'all even watch the video

Johnstone: “ I Built A Team Of Dudes”
John "I built a team of dudes" Stone
They’re just built different
It's called meeting up with the boys
'A Team of *POWERFUL* Dudes'
🤣🤣
How many geodudes will you use?
Johnstone: yes.
Johndude
I mean John STONE... he's clearly a Rock trainer.
Ah yes. The team of:
Three pixies who embody the aspects of Knowledge, Emotion, and Willpower,
The Being who was Banished from the Universe by its own creator,
A squid armed with 80 tentacles,
And...
a rock that go boom
Truly, the most powerful team for fighting a Champion.
boom
I lost it at the booom
I can just imagine the whole team looking at Gravler with concerned looks after it saying "heuhehue, I go boom" for the fourth time in a row within a span of a minute.
Allahu Rockbar
Fun fact about the Crasher Wake fight is that if you can find a Croagunk nearby and it has Dry Skin, you can use Swagger on his Gyarados and Floatzel and they tend to not know what to do and just use water moves. That’s how I beat Wake the first time I played Platinum!
Where were you 2 weeks ago when i was getting cooked by him in Diamond and Platinum 😭
This is actually a good strategy though since you’d only have to worry about Quagsire and that is a Carnivine/Roselia away from being taken care of
*Fun fact*
Johnstone literally didnt notice the Diamond Dust event at 21:47
It's a rare weather mechanic a that only occurs on these dates
•January 12th
•February 29th
•March 15th
•April 22nd
•Mai 1st
*•September 20th*
•Oktober 30th
You can't even spell may correctly. Come on man
@@superflashxmedia7706 jesus
Its called Mai in german💀💀 my mistake
@@xhale671 understandable. Have a nice day
Man this was a nice comment section. Acknowledgement of a mistake and no insult in return? Very rare.
@@GamerGrovyle a glitch in the matrix
"Aside from Roserade she probably have some of the best pokemon in the game"
Me, a Roserade fan, : "Hey !"
roserade is literally my fav pokemon and also!!! is more viable in DPP than like half her team!!! so hearing that was tragic
Roserade isnt actually a bad mon. But its only above average speed means it doesnt often go first and since its grass type it has a ton of weaknesses. So it gets blown away often. Still rocked one on my team tho
Our lord and saviour of the quarantine is back.
matt thats for sure
Nice pfp
Ya
Quit with the ignorance.
*How easily can you beat Cyrus without EXP?
Which one?
Early johntent
Not easily
23:01 I always knew Professor Juniper was evil.
I love these no exp runs. It forces you to use tons of different pokémon that you might not normally use.
*"[...] as high as level 6. Big difference, I know."*
A 50% higher level is indeed a big difference.
i'm not gonna lie, as someone who struggles with vanilla platinum, i didn't expect this challenge to be possible
really impressed
This dude is literally one of very few people that I can watch while doing schoolwork. I don’t even have to look at the screen to know his pain when he loses a battle. Him and EnterTheUnknown are great for watching when you are busy and still want to watch a Pokémon video.
You're killing it with both the videos and streams!!
This was such a fun run to watch - I really liked the creativity needed to take on some of the battles and how a lot of the rarer 5% and 1% spawns actually proved to be very useful for the run!
Or: Playing a Main Series Pokémon Game with Pokémon Ranger Rules
Yeah, thats what i thought lol
Alternate title suggestion: Pokemon Trainer Wants to be a Pokemon Ranger
13:28 I wish we could hear him going YEEEESSSSSSSSSS that's some prime Johntent right there
"Commander Juniper" love it
That radiocaf sure was a pivotal pokemon in this entire challenge, I do believe a lot of the credit goes to that specific pokemon. :)
Johnstone: "The next Pokémon we have to face is our most difficult opponent yet. One Pokémon so strong that every trainer in the region shudders at its sheer power: Budew."
Me: : )
I feel like even Roark shouldnt be that hard considering the first gym is later than usual and *you can get an old rod and good grass pokemon early*
alternatively I guess you could just use rocks
In Sun my ace is Garchomp. And it can go Mega.
@@propandapower7633 this has nothing to do with anything
Im pretty sure the only old rod mon you can get before roark is magikarp and budew even with it being a grass type is too fragile and cant 1-shot
But Roark is always hard because he's the rock type gym leader
You continue to give fresh perspectives on the games! Love the content and would love to see more of this type of challenge. Also I pretty much enjoy the CZcams friendly video. Never been much of a Twitch guy (except for some e sports) so your extra mile with CZcams is very appreciated.
It’s so cool that you have a smile on your face pretty much the whole video, it really shows that you actually enjoy what you’re doing :)
I'm watching this after having watched the streams while I'm waiting for the next nuzlocke stream to begin. The pinnacle of Johntent has been reached.
Also, your no exp playthrough has motivated me to do the same, except harder (same rules, but no legendaries and set battle style). kiiinda hard ngl.
You could describe this challenge as "Platinum without Leveling Up" and then the 17 exp you earned wouldn't really matter.
16:04 You're underestimating Tangela. That thing can take an ice fang and use stun spore in return without an issue. I didn't even catch a single Pikachu when I played Platinum without exp
The crasher wake section reminded me of my Platinum Randomizer where I used a Choice Specs Raichu that I got on the second route at around level 3, good times.
This is the highlight of my week. Thanks, man! 👍🏾😁
Barely got into the video but gotta say, hadn't seen what you looked like before but I'm not disappointed. You're looking mighty fine and very nice, Mr Johnstone.
I just found your twitch channel a couple of weeks ago and main channel Johnstone is a whole different guy now 😭😭😭 in all seriousness I really enjoy your twitch johntent, so glad I found you. And no idea why I'm watching this video I literally just finished the last stream vod lmao
Does he know about the Level 10 Golbat and Psyduck in the Oreburg gate?
Did you just named your beautyfly "butterfly" ?
Now that's comedy.
he named the starly "bird"
I was so confused for a sec
Good luck on reaching the like goal! Been trying to catch your streams on my days off because I think you’re funny and push chats buttons ;P
This is the game that got me back into pokemon, I thought they had lost me for a while but this brought me back.
No experience? Ah, you must be taking the Smallant1 approach
He goes by SmallAnt
@@justjoannak aw man, he did change his name
Wow just found your channel and your videos are great. The ideas are very unusual but they intrigue me
Great video as always. Immense amount of work!
Hey Johnstone, my man! Loved watching your Professor Oak Challenge runs, but I'm a bit stuck. I've recently gotten ahold of a copy of White Version 2, and I'm really interested in trying to beat it with POC rules, but there's no actual guides online. I did Silver a while back on emulator and I used your resources while having a blast with it, so if the challenge seems daunting, I understand, but I would LOVE to see you tackle this in the near future~ Best of luck with your future challenges though! ^w^
Read the title and immediately liked it, love these sort of challenges!! Also Ultra sun and moon POC when John?!?!
Isnt X and Y first?
I don't know why but I'm very intrigued on the making off of your videos. Could you consider making a video to show us how you prepare and edit your vids, like Mah-Dry-Bread did a while ago?
2:28 I love the Critical Hit Copypasta
I like these no EXP challenges because they're more in line with the whole "gotta catch em' all" theme.
Okay, i admit, i ACTUALLY like them because you have a reason to use proper strategy.
Imagine nuzlocking this as well.
💀
Didn’t you already watch this on twitch? Me: Yes
Then why are you watching it again?
Me: Yes
Fun vid as always! I do think your stream and chat are a little distracting, since you actively talk o your stream but are narrating the vid so it’s a lot going on. As always though, you continue super fun and different Pokémon challenge content!
You should do Black/White 2 in Challenge mode.
You really hate him, dont you?
@@SummonerArthur YES
Amazing video John really great video idea
Johnstone is like the only youtuber have watched that straight up said "if you change your mind along the way and unsubscribe, go ahead"
I’m always so happy when he posts because there all so good
I'm not into streams but ill always watch your videos!
Johnstone "not only is it double our level, but it's also fully evolved" and underleveled
Need more of these
Such a cool run! And a very well built video!
hey john, it would be cool if you include some of your live reactions in certain parts of the video interspersed with your narration (in lucky moments, for example)
Man you can never go wrong with a gen 4 game video from Johnstone
I love your videos!! ;)
Really enjoy your videos

I love your vids John Hope you see this, have a good day
Love these no exp attempts. I’m a big fan of 360Chrism, and he did these a few years ago, everyone should check out his runs. He has beat gens 1-5 I think.
I actually did this run back in May of last year and I'm quite surprised at how different some of our solutions were to each gym.
The one that surprised me the most was Wake. For Wake, I used Tangela from Pastoria Marsh to help with Floatzel, since Ice Fang didn't OHKO through it's high Def, and it had Stun Spore, so I didn't have to rely on Static. The Gyarados was a much bigger issue for me since I didn't do the Quick Claw/Thunder strat with Raichu. Instead I used Stun Spore Tangela to weaken it and then bullied the Gyarados with Water Absorb Quagsire from the Great Marsh and Intimidate Staravia, which wasn't always successful depending on what turns it was paralyzed for.
I also spent a lot of time grinding money off the 2 Rich trainers next to the Mansion right before the E4 in order to give Azelf 10 Calcium/Carbos, just to have an easier time with that whole thing because I was quite afraid of the E4.
I love these types of challenge videos
Voice-over John: I assumed I would lose, but luckily my beautifly got a crit, which is kinda lucky, but a win's a win
Streaming John: YES!!!!!! WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi jon! Please consider putting this challenge to rest with completing the Elite 4 round 2 as well in Platinum. I dont know if it would be much different, but it would be interesting as Cynthia's team gets another like 10 levels
3:52 "zubot" lol
You should put a couple of quick audio clips from your stream in your next video (if it involves the stream recording), the people need to know how different you sound 👌😎
When you said you slathered honey hoping for a Heracross, I was like, I bet you he'll get a Munchlax on the first tree on this run.
Fun Fact... This is a Anti Piracy measurement implemented in Gen 4 and 5... Meant to make the game frustrating as possible
thanks john, I think I’ll try this for live streaming too with no exp run,,
btw can u give me the tutorial how to do 0 exp mod?
First Try Freddy really pulled thru on Fantina and Cyrus, what a good run 👏👏👏

I can’t spell
It's Pachirisu xD
Love these 30+ minute vids
In light of the EXP glitch at the end you could rename the challenge to “Beat Pokémon with no level ups”.
cool video ow you gotta beat platnium with every battle making you lose experience, just watched smallant do it on emerald
Those Streams were Pog! Currently he's doing the same with pokemon white on twitch!
Fricc I love Johnstone
John: Man Fantina was so hard, hopefully its all smooth sailing from here
Cyrus: Hold my beer
Great video!!!
John's main channel voice sounds like when the teacher calls your name for attendence and its lower
Ironically I found this as I was grinding my team up to around level 63 in Platinum for the League.
It’s amazing how his tone changes drastically from his main to his live version
In the begging u could have caught Rotom
So I normally use your videos for the Professor Oak Challenges, and was just wondering if you were planning on doing one for Black/White 2 or X/Y? Just curious because these are two games I'm considering.
nobody:
JOHNSTREAM: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS
These challenges are super cool!
This was incredible.
Yesssss, my favorite Pokémon game! (Next to HeartGold and SoulSilver ^-^ )
This is a cool challenge idea, but it'd be interesting to see if you could do the same thing, but on a regular copy of Platinum (not modded). It couldnt be zero experience, obvioudly, but no level ups. It's effectuvely the same thing but gives the added challenge of having to strategize such that you don't use a Pomemon too much in a battle, and limits how long you can hold onto each mon. Like say you're using bug types from Eterna Forest against Gardenia, it'd mean that you probably couldn't use one mon to sweep her team, as the Exp reward would undoubtedly give you a level up even if you switched out your Pokemon for something else to finish off Roserade. This would be extremely tough, Id love for someone to try it
New Johntent!
Man some of your chat members have terrible opinions
Bro Johnstone and johnstone live have such different vibes
Extremely entertaining
I like Johnstone commentary
A new video by Jonathan Stone Pog
A challenge you could do is beating Pokemon without learning new moves. Basically you're only allowed to use the 4 moves (or first 4 moves you get when leveling up, like Tepig getting Ember is legal but not Defense Curl, and Abra learning the first 3 moves it gets when it evolves is good but nothing after that) that's on a Pokemon when you obtain it
Could you do a vid thats an updated tutorial for the gen 2 coin case glitch you did a while back
U should definitely do some for other games!
