Literally only because of Hypnosis. Even in his video he covered why Poliwag was able to pull a Gastly/Mewtwo, and it's because of RNG. Gastly had Hypnosis too, but far better moves and stats. Gastly's Special is insane. Poliwag has Amnesia and is too frail to use it without a sleeping enemy.

I question if it's because of the general lack of physical attacking moves. Jrose didn't keep Take Down very long, instead keeping Hydro Pump nearly the entire game just "to be a stronger Surf," which greatly lowered his consistency due to Hydro Pump's 20% miss chance. Gyrados is rocking like 125 base attack. If he had access to a physical move like gen2+ Wing Attack to get STAB, this would've been another story I think. Instead, Gyrados, despite having near-legendary stat totals, relied on two of its weakest stats (speed, special) for the entire game. Likely, the only fix for this would have involved careful money planning and spamming Carbos/Calcium (or whatever: Speed/Special vitamins) in the right amounts.

@@valhapp Gyara's Special is 100 in Gen 1, so Hydro Pump w/ STAB is about the strongest move it can learn. Take Down also has 85 accuracy and deals 25% recoil, so it's hardly a worthwhile replacement besides dealing w/ a select few high special mons that aren't immune to it. Body Slam would've been decent if he went out of the way for the one battle it requires on S.S. Anne, but otherwise his best physical option was Strength that locks him into an HM move forever b/c of no move deleter in Gen 1.

It was a special poliwag.

@@valhapp Gen 1 Gyarados Special is 100. Weaker than it's ATK, but Not Weak

@@gmenos6252 Pikasprey is infuriatingly dumb. Manly will often play the same games, but won't spend 40 minutes being confused and then angrily going "Oh, it's going to be one of THESE kinds of games!!!" Nothing wrong with being bad at games. Jrose, for example, is not the strongest Pokemon player (and even has said so himself), but he never comes across like he's blaming his mistakes or own shortcomings on "bad game design."

Lol my Tier list mostly depends on what I get notifications for.

Was thinking that as well. If Gastly rivals Gyarados who was 'perhaps the best non-legendary', Gengar should outperform most.

Or Alakazam the strongest Non legendary "Op Type" in gen 1?

Oh yes please

Don’t do my buddy Haunter like this.

The only thing with Gengar is that I don’t think it learns many moves by level up so you have to rely mostly on TM’s

Well now you probably feel even older, because this video is 1 year old now lol

He has to swim, and since its harder to cause tsunamis, I supose. Anyway, why is he flying type 🐲

@@isaacleillhikar4566 The reason he is is because of gen 1, they were originally going to make him water/dragon. The only issue with that is because a water/dragon Pokémon would have no weakness so they gave him flying to cause 4x weakness to electric to help keep this pseudo-legendary in check.

@@sethrice9406 Weack to bug type.

@@isaacleillhikar4566 Dragons are not weak to bug.

@@azh698 oh. I confused with psychic.

Tbh, some of the cheaper channels don't get old for me either. The reason I keep coming back here and not to other channels isn't that the scientific approach feels more redeeming/authentic/challenging, but that it's evidence that JRose doesn't just do the challenges because people like watching Pokemon being played, or even because he likes the challenge. He's also legitimately interested in the result, which is just a real breath of fresh air in a sea of streamers/KZfaqrs who are in it mostly just to "be gamers in front of an audience". JRose likes playing because the games matter to him (be it because of their design or because of the nostalgia - same effect, ultimately), and that's beautiful.

This is why I like Jrose cause he doesn't resort to RNG tactics like Double Team spam.

I wonder how well Dragon Rage Magikarp would do in Gen 1?

move pool in gen one will hurt Dragonite a lot at the start , warp is op but slow and its only attacking move till level 35 so grabbing tm's would be a must , and the slow level up group

How about an actual "Legendary?" Arcanine!

@@naphackDT I'd love to see that any day of the week

@@Kaiser00Wilhelm Ironically, growlithe is probably faster than arcanine because arcanine doesn't learn any moves while growlithe can badge boost with agility and learns flamethrower at level 50. Still, both of them have a very shallow move pool.

And what do u expect?.. a water flying type having x4 resistance to electric moves?.. dumbass

@@baradashankarnayak9481 that's the joke...

Skipping Body Slam and installing Thunderbolt right away were the two decisions that hurt this run. Just finished a Gyarados only run and Body Slam, Ice Beam, Surf and Hydro Pump gave just as good coverage. Installed Thunderbolt over ice beam for Lorelei and Blizzard over Hydro Pump for Lance. Didn't have nearly as much trouble.

Starmie, with access to Psychic, would have a nifty chance in the game, although beating Misty or Surge would be a chore. I mean, Thunderbolt would be handy, but how to win it with only Water Gun and Tackle?

@@xavierlagore5569 with luck

Also same XD

Yes

It's actually a common misconception...it's written as 'gyarados' but it's pronunciation is 'water onix' . Many people get it mixed up

He also didn’t tell us what fossil he took smh

@@loganmoreau7569 He ain't mahdrybread.

that's the joke

exactly. Physical moves may as well be an unofficial super effective move against Alakazam and other pokes. It's why I think Hypno is kinda underrated in gen 1 especially if you can't trade to get an Alakazam. He completely walls Alakazam and deals good damage against it with normal moves and a decent attack stat.

But Agatha tho

I was thinking this as well. But given their mediocre Special Defense in Generation III, I think Surf would take care of them just fine. Earthquake would be more for Muk.

But gyarodos’s special attack attack would also be lower

Also not to mention, Lapras isn't 4 times weak against Electric attack

@@Acacius1992 Yeah Lapras should also be able to beat Lt. Surge immediately after the SS Anne at minimum battles, saving time on not having to backtrack later and getting Thunderbolt before Rock Tunnel, but that is probably offset by Gyarados being able to OHKO more pokemon early on.

@@OmegaTyrant the only thing that larpas could have a hard time is bruno even then larpas should be able to take care of bruno without any problems

I've tried Lapras myself with minimum battles and i'm now at the entrance to victory road and holy shit lapras is really good. The only time i actually struggled was when i had to fight either rival 2 or misty. I had to use bide to get past rival 5 because lapras only has water gun and growl (i believe it was growl lol but it was something pretty useless so i forgot) until it learns sing at lvl 16. after beating rival 2 i defeated all the mandatory trainers on the way to bill and leveled up enough to beat misty with bide. Then you get bubble beam and the run becomes a walk in the park, at least until elite 4 Edit: little update on this. I defeated final rival at lvl 49 but only because i got mad luck against his venusaur. Turn one venusaur outspeeds but goes for solar beam, i hit with blizzard and it is very close to ohk but i get a lucky freeze and am able to take it out in the next turn. I didn't even use any of the rare candies and the toughest battle was agatha because every single one of her pokemon outspeed me and psychic didn't one shot. My moveset was: Surf Blizzard Bodyslam (changed it to psychic before fighting agatha) Thunderbolt

@@stinky7018 Oh damn I forgot Lapras learns Psychic too, yeah that's another advantage it has over Gyarados to reduce the luck needed to beat Agatha. As for barely missing the OHKO on Venusaur at the end, perhaps as long as Lapras gets a high enough Special DV and it's loaded up with Calcium early, it could secure the OHKO. Alternatively, you go for Gen 1 strats and let the Rhydon Leer/Tail Whip you once or twice for a bit extra Special and Speed to outspeed and 100% OHKO the Venusaur (though that is if Lapras doesn't level up between Rhydon and Venusaur).

Just don't refer to yourself as a 'poketuber' It's so cringy.

@@jaymz6473 Uh...Pokemon...content...creator?

I forgot this. Maybe he meant if Gyarados had the ability to learn Earthquake like in Generation III, though. Then he could still grab TM26 from the Silph Co. before Koga and use it top destroy him.

​​​@@reddragonair3147wouldn't help as much as you'd think. koffing and wheezing both have levitate and muk is still a 2HKO (although I think muk is in healing range but I didn't do any damage calculations to confirm).

@@petelee2477 But that's in Gen III. This would be in Gen I still, where Abilities don't exist yet.

@@reddragonair3147 I was assuming since we were talking about gen 3 move sets we'd go by gen 3 mechanics.

@@petelee2477 I see what you're saying. But my original reply was that JRose might have been talking about if Gyarados could learn Earthquake in Gen I like it could in Gen III, in which case Abilities still wouldn't exist yet. Now with this said, on reading these comments and reflecting, I doubt he was meaning it in the way I was suggesting. Which means the person I was replying to was right.

Also there's a glitch that when you get hit by Psywave it can deal [0 hp-1.5 the attackers level], but when attacking it's [1 hp-1.5 the attackers level]. So you can desynchronize a link battle with that move :P

And you can get that move, too. As a reward, no less.

@@lagg1e The Sabrina TM :P

I though it's Special Attack got lowered?

@@oliverleonard7730 yes it did. Went from 100 to 60. Given that most of its attacks use the special stat it would make the run a lot less easy until the gen where it gets physical stab moves.

It would have no good STABs, so really not great.

Actually worst

Gyarados fan for 20 years now. Sorry, it really wouldn't. Gyarados is a nightmare to use in FRLG because it's so weak with any non-Hidden Power or Strength (since Return is one-time) move it learns. 60 SpA is really weak. Even Lickitung will hit harder.
