Damn Milo isn't gonna know what hit him when he goes to get the first badge.

I think I’m going to start watching every ad because I don’t know how he’s going to pay for therapy if I don’t

"Mom, I want pokérap!" "We have pokérap at home." >Pokérap at home: 20:06

I literally beat the entirety of Winona’s gym in the time span of John talking about all of his Wild Area evolutions

All I got from this is that you can catch Snom before the first gym.

I completely agree with your rules on exploits: Exploits are fine when they minimise the time that your NOT playing the game, if you had to wait for each den to respawn over and over then you wouldn’t be playing. Using it for exp on the other hand minimises the time you ARE playing, so it shouldn’t be done.

I guess Prof Oak Challenge was never envisioned for something like the wild area, it's insane. I can see why it would be fun on older games, since I tend to push myself to catch everything on a route before progressing, but the wild area completely broke the challenge.

24:44 Team Yell: You cant get passed us until you do more story lol. Random Dude: Aight, ima head out.

24:40 "Sorry, you're not allowed through here. There's been a blackout in the city."

“scorbunny gets the least amount of love” visible confusion

Old leveling system: You took everything from me Exp Candies: I don’t even know who you are.

Oh man, I feel you on the Lapras encounter rate. I also fished for Feebas for weeks before just catching and breeding Milotic in the wild area. They really nailed that gen 3 feel for Feebas

Great video! Here's a challenge idea: How easily can you collect all the medals in Black 2 and White 2 Edit: Yes, I have seen the video.

29:59 not gonna lie was hoping he'd get the special 1% sinistea

People asking for Unova don't get it. He did SwSh while doing Unova. He is still on the 1st gym. He is getting 1xp each kill for his starter. In the johto video he said that it was the second worst. Unova is hell and back.

John: "I just chose Scorbunny because I don't think he gets a lot of love." R34 artists: "Lemme stop you right there."

Me seeing all the pseudolegendarys: oh no Oh no OH NO

Meanwhile, I've been searching for Munchlax in Diamond for 4 months straight now

It always throws me off how different your voice sounds at the begining in regards to the end. I feel like I'm at the wrong channel *laughs*

16:20 Snom Because Snom is important.

Sword actually has FOUR more before the first gym (totaling 293) as in addition to the version-exclusive Farfetch'd, Sirfetch'd, Darumaka and Darmanitan, Mareanie (and thus Toxapex) can be caught in 1-star raids only in Sword. Meanwhile Shield's only exclusives this early are Ponyta and Rapidash.

20:06 Gen 8 Pokérap, starring Johnstone.

"I chose scorbunny because I feel he gets the least amount of love" I almost spat out my drink

I shiny hunted my Chewtle on the aglerspot in motorstoke where you tried at first, after about 1500 encounters i got 2 shiny magikarps and a shiny chewtle and not even once found a barboach

Johnstone: I chose Scorbunny because I feel like he gets the least love Grookey: sad grookey noises

The evolving part is a part of the Gen 8 Pokérap. I swear it is.

I know you get a lot of credit and appreciation for the effort that goes into your content, but I can't help but feel you deserve far more than you get regardless. Especially after this monstrosity of a project. Thank you for your ridiculous dedication to making this content!

I want John to throw everyone for a huge loop and make a video about Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth.

20:06 Johstone saying Pokemon names for almost 3 uniterrupted minutes

Thumbnail: "Catching every Galar Pokémon with only 2 badges?" Lol wait *what*

I think this could entice people: the first section ends at 24:00, lol; this is the sheer magnitude of the effect the Wild Area has on this challenge.

Everytime the ironic "right? " is pronounced , you know Johnstone's gonna have serious trouble.

John, you mad man, you did it again.

I picked Scorbunny because I felt it didn’t get enough love Me: It’s that but the opposite Also Me: *laughs in Sobble line*

Scorbunny, because he gets the least love. Inteleon: forever alone

Dude, you're a maniac. Here, try an easier one, X and Y

Also known as the impossible challenge for the impatient.

11:26 if you interact with the corvisquire on the rock, you can battle it

I was really curious to see how this went. I've got Shield, and I haven't done any link trades to get specific pokemon. But because I got lucky with surprise trades, I got the starters, and because of sword players hosting their raids, I've only got 25 pokemon left to get and I think my save file is sitting at around 80 hours.

24:20 "Random old man" He's not old, he's just exhausted.

First thing I though of when seeing this is ‘The wild area will be absolutely fun

Scorbunny by far gets 10 time ore love than the other starters

"After checking Melony off the list of gym leaders to destroy" in what way?~

John: Time to evolve! The Pokemon: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!

We all know what you're avoiding doing. Do it already.

39:04 Last saved August 7th 2020. He traveled back in time to upload his video! 0_o

with how much work you put into your videos, it’s safe to say you deserve SO MANY more subs. Great work!

Yes! I was waiting for this~ Also, your calming voice is making my day a lot better, thanks for that~

YAS!! I love your Professor Oak challenges so much, made my day to see a new one

The Dude unironicly walking past team yell finished me xD

24:47 i thought my headphones where broken lol

Here I am casually playing since release date... I’m at ~250 in my dex only after 30 hours 😂 Great video like always, John! You’re the man.

This is insanely well done! Thank you for all the effort and the entertainment John

“So I chose scorbunny because I feel like he gets the least amount of love” no, scorbunny gets the most love

I took a break from pokemon around 1 and a half years ago and just got back into pokemon a few weeks ago naturally i was looking up some videos about new mechanics and stuff and i realized That 95% of the community posts either extrem low quality content or makes the same videos everyone else makes and then i found this channel and thought to myself that there is still hope for this community. I hope your videos will continue to do as well as they do now and beg you to not change. You are a gem my good sir

I just love this series so much. My kuddos to you (once again) for taking this up in what probably is your most difficult challenge in this series so far.

"I chose Scorbunny cause he gets the least amount of love." that take is hotter than a pyro ball

to be honest for this kinda challenge it's insane, but it is really awesome that so many pokemon in the dex are available at the beginning of the game!

Oh boy, can’t wait for part 2 of this when the DLC comes around.

24:46 He's part of team yell that's why

24:40 It's X&Y all over again.

Me: he will finish the naming 10 years later Me:HELP ME

“So I just chose Scorbunny, because he gets the least amount of love” *laughs in libero

"This game seems to have the lowest chance of finding a shiny out of any of the games." Lol, a shiny Tyrogue was one of the first pokémon I caught in Pokémon Sword.

Bruh did he say Scorebunny got the least amount of love !?

20:06 now I know how many Pokémon just tilt their head up and scream for their cry

"For the first time, we can pick whichever starter we want" Okay, just forget Treecko existed then

This video was sponsored by Raid: Solrock Legends

This game should’ve been the first game to have voice acting

I love the dedication of this man i imagine how long this challenge is i would not have the patience to do this

"Scorbunny gets the least amount of love." Me: *"HAVE YOU EVEN SEEN E621?!"*

This is the video I've been waiting for :) now do it again when the DLC comes out lol

“This shouldn’t be bad!” *looks at first section* Oh

20:52 oh god the dark lords messenger

You missed eevee on route one. That’s where i caught my first one and evolved it into umbreon. But you did say higher level which makes sense

When you realize you're 23 minutes in and he still doesn't have the first badge

Eiscue and Stonjourner: *sips coffe*

24:40 - Reminds me of the cutscene with the silicobra.

24:45 was hilarious😂

Damn man, catching all of those Pokémon before the first badge probably took just as long as the game in a normal play though up to the first badge.

I’m doing a shield POC and have been waiting for this. My cousin is doing one on sword so we have decided to bend the rules and make equal trades to get the version exclusives. EDIT: Forgot to mention we’re not doing a living dex, so basically POC easy mode

Dude, I literally spit out my drink when I saw that count pop up!

Right after John said "We're going to do this in one take" I got an ad of someone drinking coffee 😂

I was literally talking about this today! I was wondering how this would work with the wild area. I'm guilty of not having watched the video yet before commenting, but I just wanted to mention that lol.

john , I'm Waiting for Gen 5 Professor Oak Challenge.

Love how he never splits these videos up and its just 40 minute to an hour long videos

Listening to section one's evolutions is like listening to a slowed down pokerap 🤣

He said he didn't need to evolve Feebas and then caught his evolved form after the 7th gym when he caught Feebas before it.

Do some Pokemon Mystery Dungeon videos PLEASE I BEG you! ... I'd sell my soul for you to do a recruit em all of red/blue rescue team in honor of the DX remake coming out.

Ah, yes, the Professor Oak challenge, I love that!

The first gym evolution section be sounding like a slowed down pokerap

We’ve been waiting...

by scorbunny not getting enough love do you mean EVERY SINGLE PERSON CHOOSES IT???

2:05 *Insert beginning of the Pokemon rap*

I have the official sword and shield guidebook and that was a HUGE help when I was trying this challenge myself. It shows you how to heat the game, (dlc not included) what encounters are in each area, there spawn rates, and the map and battles.

For anyone wondering the chance to not find a barboach after 75 encounters is 0.0036% which is 30 shiny pokemon in a row in gen 3

John: This game has the lowest chance of getting a shiny.... except for red and blue Me: Oh Sh** Lmfao Cause Red and Blue doesn't have shinies (somehow this made me laugh super hard)

Something that personally made the happiness evolutions easier in my run was using the berries they give you as rewards from the Max Raids, because then you never have to do any camping

This is the one time we should be happy about the Dex cuts.
