Ahh, pathfinding. A casual pokémon player's worst enemy
I did worse, i kinda never knew there was an elite 4. I kinda skipped through every dialogue, trained my Groudon and Blaziken to lvl 74 and THEN realized the giant waterfall someday. Then i got surprised that there is still content left, then oneshotted the entire Elite 4. Good memories.

When you think about it, all Pokemon are just variations of Diglett.
all of life is just diglett....
@ThatGuyBailey10 It was a joke about how Smallant said that Protect was just the first part of Dig, and how Fly was just Dig for Flying-type Pokémon. Since Diglett is the best-known user of Dig…

This aged beautifully now that Wiglett exists
FYI: The Letter you gave Steven is about specific information on Team Aqua and Team Magma, Stevens Dad asks him to do some things in advantage. They couldn't talk on the PokeNav because the Company got kinda infiltrated, that's why Team Aqua knew about this shroomish-guy in the 1st Forrest.
Is that actually canon?

When you realize mid video that Pheobe has a Sableye with no weaknesses:
"..... anyways good luck"
YEAAAA that's a lil' broken
His next challenge should be a not- very-effective-move only challenge.
Omg yeah
Then normal-types all become unkillable except with status moves.
Immune moves should hit as well but they should become not-very-effective
I have to grind out assignments, and this the perfect thing for the background
Remember everyone
Fire, Flying, and Fighting is perfect coverage
Almost every single fire starter gets access to all three with an extra slot for buffs or support or another attack for more super effective hits
Steel
Dark
Fighting
Is also perfect Coverage, so if you get like a Lucario who can learn all three in physical and special (High Jump Kick (egg move)/others, Meteor Impact, Crunch (egg move), with swords dance will clean house pretty easy. Aura Sphere, Dark Pulse, and I forget the name of the Steel Special Attack Lucario can learn work well with any special attack buff lucario can learn. But any pokemon who can learn steel, fighting, and dark gets perfect coverage alongside most fire starters
They are pretty good sets for 3 move full coverage, but 4 move full coverages can obviously do much better in this challenge, just good to know for normal play
Also; Cynthia would raise hell in this challenge (but she is not in this title), with Spiritomb only having one weakness and Lucario only having 3 the fight could easily become hell without proper setup. The rest of her pokemon will still be challenging but they are not excessive Wonder Guard Walls like those two would be.
Imagine doing Gen 4 and you face Cinthia and realize she has a spritomb and your forced to get yourself to struggle
