Legendary pokemon are known for their power and rarity, generally leading to memorable catches across the series! But as the roster has rapidly increased over the years, so too have the methods for obtaining them, bringing their status into question. So today, we attempt to find out how they hold up by taking on the most difficult challenge yet…how fast you can obtain a legendary in every pokemon game!
If you love unique Pokémon challenges as well as uncovering facts about the games you never knew, then you are going to love my channel! I am currently working on the "How fast can you catch X in EVERY Pokémon game" series where we track down specific pokemon, types, and other interesting groupings in the most optimal way possible.
I use a heavy amount of research and analysis in search of the answer to each episode's question, aiming to tell a fun story of the often tedious but exciting adventures I go through along the way!

The fact that Wo-Chien is the fastest non-DLC legendary in the entire series makes me happy: It's so much worse than the other three treasures of ruin in basically every other way, so at least it gets this one W.

FYI Abilities in Ruby/Sapphire only have in-battle effects or only have out-of-battle effects, Arena Trap only gets the out of battle effect in Emerald. The only ability that increases encounter rate in Ruby/Sapphire is Illuminate, and the only other abilities that have OOB effects are Stench and Pickup. All other field effects start in Emerald.

I don't really understand the reasoning behind grabbing the master ball in gen 1 - my guess would have been that tossing regular balls until you get lucky is much faster, is that not the case?
@houraisheperd9721 5 күн бұрын
I'm thinking the same. Silph eats up so much time, and great balls have the best catch rate against legends in gen 1. Surely it's faster to rush Zapdos than it is to go all the way through a completely optional (for this challenge) area.

Great vid! Just wanted to share that I actually got Wo Chien before even meeting the ride Pokémon for the first time awhile back. This was before the encounter warps were nerfed to not allow you to throw through walls, but it in NO way was it fast. It took a lot of waiting for flying types to move to just the right spot to get up the waterfall and highest mountain 😅

Semaj is back with an absolutely legendary video! The time spent on just the gameplay, let alone editing and research is unbelievable for this one. You simply do too much for us lowly viewers 😭 I really liked seeing all the variables that increased different percentages in some of those! All that work for the Regis just to be let down by their time too... 😂 Awesome work as always dude! Love the video, love you, and love the idea of a Ditto vid in the future!! My one and only criticism is that the recap time comparisons at the end didn't have which legendary Pokemon was caught as a reminder. Guess I'll just have to rewatch the whole video to remember which ones won 😏

Real quickly, regarding Ho-Oh and Lugia in Gold/Silver: When you mentioned the defense stat, it doesn't matter if you use a water move. Water moves were all Special, meaning Defense makes no difference unless you are using Rock moves for super effective damage. You'll do 4x on Ho-Oh versus Lugia with only 2x with Rock Moves when looking at the Defense Stat. But in the sense of the speedrun, Ho-Oh still wins because you use Feraligator's water type against Ho-Oh, not because of the lower Defense stat.

This left me with the question, how fast can you get the box art pokemon in each game? It's probably too close to this video to be worth doing separately, at least any time soon. Unrelated question, is Yellow just slower than Red/Blue? I think it's the only one you didn't at least mention.

this challenge was wild, especially reliving the headache that is gen 3 regi hunting lol and the early wo-chien hunt is tough but satisfying to finish, i actually managed to do it without miraidon. using only the targeting warp trick to get myself up ledges i wasn't "supposed" to get to. i saved the one on top of the waterfall for last. it took me the longest of all of them, hoping to get just one spawn to align correctly for me to reach it. definitely do not recommend doing it that way lol

I think there may been a concept of making Lets Go's time even less. U don't need 3 badges for the birds, only 2. U'd still have access to great balls (I know this from experience with POC's which also have to get the birds before the third badge). So that could save a bit of time for getting Zapdos, probably not much time. But ya

I honestly think we should count getting the companion box legend ball from Arven as you get a legendary Pokemon in SV. since you do actually get it in your hand in a Pokeball, and it is usable in your whole playthrough, you just don't use it in battle. If we want to do otherwise then the title should be changed to "How fast can you catch a Legendary in every Pokemon game?"

how did the latest game change it up? They're still the same as always... It's a very simple distinction. If it originally was not able to be caught in a base playthrough of a game, meaning you need a special event or some outside source to obtain it, then it's a mythical. if you can catch it in a base playthrough of a game, without the sue of an external event or source, then it's a legendary.
@crickett3536 Күн бұрын
@@LuckyOwI777 I was mostly thinking of the legendaries you can find after finishing the Blueberry quests. I thought some of those were originally mythical? But since I've been confused about which were event Pokemon in previous games, I could have also misunderstood them, too. I never really understood the difference before 😂
@LuckyOwI777 Күн бұрын
@@crickett3536 I think the only one is Meloetta. And a Pokemon doesn't become mythical or legendary randomly. That's what I said. It's origin required an event or outside source to obtain. Same with Deoxys and the Delta Episode in ORAS. yes you can capture Deoxys in those games without the need for any outside event or anything. But since it originally needed an event to be caught, it's a mythical. Although with Meloetta, you need to purchase the dlc. If you play through the base game of S/V, you can't catch it. It is kind of a weird case in that regard and can be confusing, but regardless, it's clearly a mythical, since it's debut required an event.

I'm curious where Pokémon Colosseum would rank on the list at the end. With animations taking forever, I imagine that would eat into the time, but you can catch Entei from the game's second major boss. (XD would probably be dead last since you gotta go to the very end of the game for your first, I think.) Seems strange to not count the GameCube titles for these runs when Legends Arceus seems to bare less resemblance to the battle system of other main games. Do you not have access to them?

That Marvel Strike Force sponsor hurts ngl, I used to play that game almost religiously back in 2022, I was in a super serious clan and everything, but I got banned. TL;DR the Devs lied about requirements for an event to get a legendary character and I was mad I wouldn't be able to get them so I downloaded a cheat device, I only used it a tiny bit on the specific stage I couldn't clear then deleted it, but there was apparently alot of cheating in that event so I got caught and perma-banned. I miss it sometimes but I couldn't start over from scratch. From what I gather that clan I was with is still going today
