    This is one of the most difficult pokemon challenges, and it's a perfect balance of skill and luck: you have to play extremely well, make good strategic decisions, and get lucky! I feel like all of my hard work and dedication paid off, and I was able to beat this crazy challenge! I streamed this every day for 2 weeks trying to beat it.

    detect on the champ lead is so insane, holy. since you aren't attacking, AI doesn't see detect as actually procking, so it continually sees it as a good move to click with items being used instead. that was so clean, well played my dude

    The somewhat sub-optimal typing of Aerodactyl was just completely overrun by that stat distribution. I don't think I'd be able to balance a BST 515 Pokemon more ideally for an Ironmon Kaizo than this Aerodactyl was. High Spe, high SpA, and balanced defences and hp, sacrificing the unneeded attack stat, but not enough that physical moves are useless. Couple that with the stellar moveset you stumbled into, a perfect ability to keep you alive, and some absolutely insane lucky misses, and man. What a perfect one-Mon army.

    Perfect stat spread and near perfect coverage by brock 👏 congratz. Lmao at the guy in chat - "DID BAYLEEF MAKE THIS SEED?!".
    Also, maybe I'm weird but I'm hoping to see more of the ultimate ruleset over Kaizo. Yeah its fun to pog over the challenge but ultimate offers the player a lot more agency and opportunity for interesting combinations. I think the realization that convinced me off the Kaizo train was that the additional restrictions arguably do not increase the skill ceiling of the challenge. All the skills and decision making that kaizo requires translates equally to ultimate, but with more opportunities to apply them. Not saying either mode is superior, I just personally have more fun, either watching or playing, the ultimate ruleset.

    Is this an early version of the ruleset? I got to elite 4 as a level 89 missing maybe 3 trainers and wondered if the exp growth rate was different earlier on

    • @econsean
      @econsean  Před rokem

      No version of the rules has changed the XP curve of the pokemon, although this was on an earlier version of the rules where you could only pivot to the same or lower level pokemon.
      Your experience getting to the end of the game can vary a little bit depending on the types of pokemon you run into since things like Blissey give insane XP and things like Mew give little XP. I also think that I had good rare candy luck as well on this run, and I think that I had 2/3 rare candies on this run. If you want to see the full differences you can check the full run in the description!
      I do think that this is the highest level I reached the E4 at on any pokemon, as I was able to full clear everything besides victory road trainers.

      There's a couple of ways that you can do this. The newest version of the tracker has a feature where, if you create a bunch of random files, theres a hotkey (default is AB select start) to load up the next file in sequence automatically. What I do is that when I'm finished with a file, I rerandomize a file and save over the previous one, and then just load the file that I randomized over and it didn't reset the emulator.

      I may have explained the rules not great in the beginning of the video, but the full rules are at ironmon.gg
      You are allowed to use the items that you pickup in the overworld IN battle, but not outside of battle, and you aren't allowed to purchase any items outside of pokeballs and repels, so you can only use what you get. A major part of the run is trying to stockpile heals so that way you have a little bit of insurance for the elite 4 fights: You're probably going to take a ton of damage, so you're definitely going to have to heal. Sorry if that was a big confusing!
