  • The third, the largest, the most unhinged, and oiliest Wonder Trade gauntlet I've done so far!!!!! This video is a doozy and revolves around the shutdown of the 3DS online services on April 8th, 2024. My goal? To complete the national dex of all 807 Pokemon in Ultra Moon using ONLY Wonder Trade.
    Thanks to everyone who submitted pictures/videos for this and to ‪@KotatsuInUnova‬ for doing the last few streams with me on the eclipse beach adventure!!!
    Thank you to ‪@GlitchxCity‬ for allowing me to use the lo-fi Lillie theme in the video!!

    Thank you so much to everyone who joined in on this crazy community effort and sent in pictures/videos of your setup/wonder trades!!! I truly wish I could've featured even more, but this project was a MASSIVE undertaking!!! I had the time of my life making this video, and I can not WAIT to do the final playthrough with this team (plan pending)

      Well, I'd better get started making tons of Tatsugiri to help you when you do the final surprise trade stream when they shut down the Nintendo Switch Online service for the new one in the Switch 2 Online servers in 2030 since they are planning on phasing out the Switch in 2005. And I'll name them all BK Mode. ^_^
      It's sad that we will never see Festival Plaza or Wonder Trade ever again but having seen many Playstation game trophies become unobtainable after their servers are forced to shut down, I know the impossibility of having an online service run forever.
      And with Pokemon Wonder Trade not dead forever, it won't be long before Pokemon Bank is shut down and all those Pokemon from Generations 1-7 will be unobtainable by original means, which means Shadow Pokemon will never leave Generation 3. :(

    my biggest accomplishment in this wonder trade gauntlet was that I stick bugged The Oiler
    but honestly, this was the most perfect way to send the 3DS online off with a bang! Me and my friend were on a discord call and watched your stream together and we were SO on the edge of our seats at like 2 am when there were only like 5 pokemon left from full collection and we were not sure when exactly the servers gonna go offline.
    I'm so glad I got to receive an Absol and a Joltik from you (as well as one of Kotatsu's Mijos)! I personally set out bunch of different hatched pokemon with stupid random nicknames that on one point devolved into every single mon nicknamed RICE!!!!!!

    As a full time CZcams oil enjoyer, I wish I could have participated. But I just think back to the first Christmas after X and Y released. Someone on imgur or reddit made a big post about sharing shiny, powerful, or rare pokemon on Christmas morning to send to children who got the game for the first time. I remember spending all week preparing trade evolution pokemon, so people could complete their Pokedex. I had so much fun sending them out, as well as receiving cool legendaries and shinies, and sending those back out.
    I also think back to an April fools event where the infamous Nate & Dookie had us swarm the entire Wonder trade with zubats. I got one of Nate's zubats that day, and it blossomed a love for that entire evolution line.
    Now today, I am in tears at the sheer accomplishment of completing the Pokedex 3 times with the power of the pokémon community. I am in tears remembering how much fun these games start out as. And I am in tears thinking of the beloved games going out, not withering away like an old memory, plagued by nothing but rusted bots spewing meaningless bytes. But going out in an explosive cacophony of oil, CZcams urls, and love for the series that reminds us of the joy in the world.
    Thank you Absol (Matt(Real)). Because of you, the 3ds era has been documented and preserved for pokémon fans generations to come.

    not to get weirdly sentimental but i started watching this channel when i was in a really bad place mentally and failed to find joy in... anything, really. but something about your videos and the way you show how much you enjoy these games, the community and such "tedious" tasks of hunting and hatching hundreds of pokemon, and appreciate the little things just always lifted my spirits so much. it made me want to get better and just go through life a little more happy and a little more silly. sometimes it made me feel a little sad because i was yearning for that joy you radiate in your content, almost a little jealous.
    today you showed up in my sub box again, and ive improved and healed so much since the last time i watched one of these videos. it feels so good. suddenly watching your videos is even more entertaining. this was a blast to watch!

    I can't believe this. My friend and I were wondertrading around the same time, trying to complete our Alola dexes, and we kept getting pokemon with "oil" nicknames! My favourites were a Spinda called "MIMI OILY" a golduck named "gamer oil", and an Igglybuff named "BOILS IN OIL". I was so confused, I even looked it up to see if it was some meme I was missing. And now I started watching this video and it all clicked into place. I've loved your videos for years and I'm happy to have (indirectly) been a part of this haha. Long live 3DS online!

    I'm proud to have delivered Munchalot the Rhyhorn (who shows up briefly at 56:32) to you during the final stream. I managed to catch at least a little bit of every stream and it was such a great experience to have a proper sendoff for 3DS online.
    I was never particularly a fan of Rhyhorn before, but in breeding them for the WT Gauntlet and coming up with nicknames, I actually grew really fond of them and gained a newfound appreciation for it and now it's one of my favorite Pokemon!
    I transferred a bunch of the guys I got up to Pokemon Home and of course that included the ones I got from Matt and a few Mijos, but there were also just a lot of guys I got from random people in the stream chat that had fun nicknames and I wanted to keep around. It was so fun seeing the person I was trading with in chat and thanking each other for the Pokemon we had recieved from each other. While a lot of people were specifically trying to send out the Pokemon that Matt needed, it was clear that there were also a lot of people just wanting to share some of their favorites with creative nicknames.
    It was truly a magicoil experience :)

I was so devastated I almost cried, I don’t use social media and only really hear things through youtube and friends so knowing I was just a day or two late to what would have been my last time seeing what I spent so many hours on in my childhood and teen years was just so sad. Im so glad this video exists because it is definitely making me feel happier knowing that the online features got their last hurrah, thank you matt.

    It was sincerely, an amazing experience to take part in this gauntlet. Especially since I was sick the entire time. Radar chaining off stream and then wonder trading was seriously therapeutic for me.
    I found your channel a few months before this gauntlet and it really reignited my love of Pokemon after being fairly jaded about it for years. Your videos really bring out the charm of Pokemon that I hadn't felt in a long time. I even played the Gen 9 games and really enjoyed them after not giving any of the Switch games a chance at all. So thank you for bringing me back into Pokemon and reminding me why I loved it so much. Also thanks to everyone who wonder traded, I will love and cherish all my Slurbb nmms, Mijos and oil based Pokemon.
    59:36 Also I'm the one who traded You're fired (which was not mine, I received it earlier that stream and traded it out as a hail mary when I ran out of things to trade. Shoutouts to whoever sent me You're fired.) You can actually see me in the chat screaming YES YES YES when I got the trade. I actually popped off huge there, I will legitimately NEVER forget that moment.

    Though it’s more impersonal, I would be interested to see something similar with Pokémon HOME. Maybe not completing the whole National Pokédex, but between the Wonder Box and Room Trades, completing challenges there, you’ve got a great wealth of Pokémon from across many different games you can use as Trade Fodder.

    I have a copy of ultra moon, but I never got too far into it - maybe if I had, and if I wasn't too shy to join in livestreams, and if I had more time on my hands, I could've been part of this. I can't anymore. maybe I can be there for other wonder trade gauntlets in the future, since I have pokemon sword and scarlet. or maybe I'll forget again. either way, what's oiled is oiled.
    loved this video, as usual. your storylines never fail to get me so invested, and the biggest smile is on my face whenever cal zone or the breaker or any other silly little channel meme shows up. I'd recommend you to anyone regardless of if they like pokemon or not! lots of love from a cringe british pokemon enjoyer. :)

    This was such an amazing gauntlet, thank you for hosting it! It was so cool to see everyone come together to get it completed, especially at the very end of the dex. I'm stoked I got to help out a little bit and got a couple trades from you in the process.

    While not getting a single trade with you is a bit of a shame, I think it just goes to show what a massive community effort this was! So glad I got to witness the celebration of a whole console in real time. RIP 3DS servers.

    Hey Matt I loved the video, I wish I could've participated in the trades this time around but it's okay I did get to do some trades in the first 2.
    You're content just keeps me into pokemon man im so glad you keep posting its helped me not forget my childhood memories with pokemon. These wonder trade gauntlets on this game and gen 6 really bring me back to wonder trading with my friends for hours :)

    Participating in this was such a fun time, between all the weird stuff I received through out, all the running jokes through the streams and the moment the dex was completed. I'll tell you right now I was just as hyped to see it actually completed at the last minute as you were. Genuinely thank you for doing this. Glad I was able to contribute, even if it was only indirectly by my Sudowoodo Ando finding it's way to you and helping Oobleg with the CalZoneFans and the other stuff he was trading.

  • @CinnaBox
    @CinnaBox Před 11 dny +2

    this event was so awesome and so much fun! I loved coming together as a community to avenge the 3DS, and this is has got to be one of my favorite videos from you now! Even if Papaya may not have been mentioned in the movie, I hope you’re taking great care of her (or he, I forgot), I just hope this can be done again sometime, maybe in sword and shield considering it’s probably super dead, scarlet and violet will work great too though, considering that’s also dead, I also wished the justicefortwinkmijo part was in this but that’s okay, because this is genuinely one of the greatest videos not just from you but maybe ever, definitely going in the peak CZcams playlist
    also it’s kind of crazy to think I basically started that whole Bellsprout bit

    @OrbitalBlitz Před 7 dny +1

    Didn't expect the video to bring this type of rollercoster: from infinite oil gathering, to kidnapping, to horror and to cap off all of that with a very epic finale. Guess the trades weren't the only wonder thing that happened during this project haha. An amzing and hectic journey to witness and no doubt, a memorable ans satisfying send off to the 3ds servers (not counting the loopholes). Wasn't able to contribute but I'm glad things work out in the end :) And now that you're rich you can purchase the servers and run it back on the other games lol.

    I feel so honored to be apart of this insane journey, and I’m so happy that everything concluded into this one video that might be in the Pokémon community history books! I joined in into almost every stream, and managed to trade with you twice (so happy that the Furfrou with a clover on top of their head got to sneak into the video) your Solrocks are in good hands

  • @alanaustin0399
    @alanaustin0399 Před 4 dny

    I was so incredibly lucky to have traded with you as many times as I had. It was incredible seeing my Peel Cheese, BK ThiccLegs (passed on by another trader), Twiggy, and I TOOK A NAP make the video! What an incredible experience! Thank you for creating the best sendoff to 3DS online imaginable!

  • @cj_skywalker
    @cj_skywalker Před 11 dny +4

    FACT: Burger King has a term called "BK Mode" which is used by people doing multi-world randomizers like Archipelago. I'm going to stream a story about it as I do my own Wonder Trade Gauntlet. ^_^

    Me and my sister had fun trading with random people and we even got you once :D
    This video was also really fun to watch!

  • @linxordfeaturelength6725

    It was so fun to watch this! I was on my own 3DS/Wii U shutdown journey, doing Wonder Trades between four different consoles at the end and playing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on my Wii U at the same time. It was very hectic, and I'm proud to have been one of the remaining people online for so long after the shutdown. Thanks for this Matt, it's truly a standing legacy for what the 3DS' online features were.

    16:00 I'm dying laughing at the fact someone broke the laws of coding to send over a Poipole just for an Oil joke 😂 this video is so enjoyable and really captures my feelings on losing a lot of ds features, while also cherishing the memories that remain! Wonderful as always :)
    Edit: I found a shiny dugtrio while watching this video, thats phase 6 for Gible in X and Y on Route 13. I named her Oiled Up, it was only right

  • @Joziken
    @Joziken Před 11 dny +6

    This video made me emotional. Thank you for hosting this special Wonder Trade event! It took a while but we were able to complete the Dex right up until the end. I am so happy I was able to participate in this crazy gauntlet, trading about 200 times.
    On the final day, I decided to Wonder Trade in Pokémon Y instead while I watched your livestream. I was able to stay connected online for over 8 days, before my 3DS XL ran out of battery live on stream, while I was asleep. I wish I was able to stay connected longer, but it was all worth being part of this amazing and historical event.
    Shout out to my April 9th Oddish, Wo0o0o Mama Gastly, Ryan Reynold, Honse, Mijo, Sluurb nmm?, Oiled Up, Calzonfan, Waltuh, Harold, and all the others 🫡
