This channel is SS Anne tier

I've gotta agree: The consistency of videos, the quality of uploads - it's brilliant.

Best 🔥❤💪

Agreed

This channel is Mewtwo tier

It's a GBC emulator

It’s not a GBC emulator, but a Super Gameboy emulator from the SNES. Full color palettes wouldn’t come to Pokemon games on GBC until Pokemon yellow.

I guess it is hard to think up 50 unique color palettes, even tho i love limited colors in old games

@@caritahearts2405 it's not hard to think them up it's just hard to store them all in memory.

@@kaptainKrill Correct. The Super Game Boy can give separate pallets to static portions of the screen if the game is specifically coded to work with the Super Game Boy. This was probably intended for things like title screens or cutscene slides, but Pokemon takes advantage of this since battle sprites are static and moves are simply sprites placed over top. Jynx is using an entirely different sprite from the front though. So that was tweaked too.

With 50 he said there would be no more

You should do more casual pokemon challenges

nathaniel bandy

I've done 42 runs based on Jrose rules myself so far

Hold on, ain’t u nathaniel B?!?

Rival 3, Pidgeotto took half to Bubble Beam without a crit

@@FroststormFrenzy Oh.

It's STAB Ice Beam, it will kill

Not on SS anne

Hello fellow Heath enjoyer

Same. Colors were done in yellow as a cool feature in gen 1 and you lose that gen 1 feeling since every other gen had color.

Same

@@StealthNinja4577 pokémon gold pokémon silver can run on original gameboy as well so they don’t necessarily have color

THIS COMMENT!!!!!!

I immediately noticed and wanted to see everything in purple. I don't care for the multi-palettes.

this was my first thought too xD

@@m0rla_ same!

Aw man, don't jynx it before I've even watched it...

@@m0rla_ an hour would put it between jolteon and gastly Then again Gastly had problems in route 3 n jynx had big problems with lorelei and difficulty with Bruno and rival I think jrose is right to penalize jynx for shaky Bruno n rival fights

@@denis2381 never found the videos stretched. If anything the longer format is more endearing

Ye

I noticed that too- most likely to avoid potential controversy

He's also using a super Gameboy for SNES emulator based on the colors

I noticed that, too.

@@Ospyro3em That's why the 3DS Virtual Console version of Yellow changed Jynx to purple

He said it took him around an hour So that puts jynx in the tier with jolteon above it so it doesn't even make a tier It is concerning when rival n Bruno are struggles for a pokemon

@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 he plays sped up, so that hour of real-time could have been longer on-ranking

It wouldn't be close to other fully evolved mons that have better stats

@@matthewroberts5891 other fully evolved Pokémon don't have the typing Jynx has. STAB Ice Beam and Psychic is a tough combo to beat.

@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 um im confused where in this video did he struggle with bruno?? he literally beat it while not having enough psychics to hit all of the fighting types and took literally one hit.

I love the dichotomy between the games and the anime. I know it doesn't really apply to gen 1, but in FRLG it's like "yea Mewtwo has monstrous stats, anyways my bat with 4 wings bites, and he doesn't like that very much."

You're right about the backsprite

those are the crystal sprites

@@connorgross3410 All the gen II backsprites are the same. It's not specifically Crystal

EXACTLY the same man.. weird right but JR goes on for 3 minutes and I’m out cold 😂

same here man, you are not alone. This is one specifically is my first time actually watching it

Same here, bro. His voice is relaxing and warm.

I always like to fall asleep to the video, but then go back the next day at some point and watch the second half of the video that I missed lol

Almost every night for 2 years I fall asleep to Jrose lol.

I've done this. Very soothing voice. Not a boring voice or video, just a soothing voice with a relaxed demeanor.

Same here. Jrose and Summoning Salt are my two favourite bedtime listens. I've always been a terrible sleeper but listening to these legends talk about video games I loved when I was a kid manages to do the job!

Me too! That's interesting that other people have found the same thing.

Same here! I thought I was the only one that did this! It’s so soothing and I’m glad I’m not the only one that he’s helped!

Scyther Khangaskhan and Pinsir interest me not for power level but for late game encounter

@@darthparallax5207 scyther is really bad Gen 1 like really bad Rival n Agatha are really hard for scyther Pinsir would be interesting it depends on if it learns earthquake or not Butterfree is really strong Gen 1 n can possibly pull off minimum battles too good Kanghaskhan depends on moveset n if it again learns earthquake

@@darthparallax5207 if any bug has a chance at an a tier my money's on butterfree actually The question is if surge and or misty will wall it Once it does its shop gets psychic it's very smooth sailing

@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 The only real wall I can think of is Blaine

@@darthparallax5207 I’m pretty sure Scyther is impossible because it only learns normal-type moves.

Maybe it's unpopular but you do you. I know how it feels (mine is Diglett.) Enjoy the video!

Bauke and siriondil both amazing picks! Love to see originality for a favorite Pokémon!

It's hated because it's "ugly" and a "racist caricature", but I respect its design conceptually. It's actually inspired by a mythical Japanese creature called "yama-uba", so it makes a lot of sense that it has seductive mannerisms despite being grotesque. Also, frostbites can lead to purple/black skin, and it's given Dry Skin as a hidden ability (frostbites can heal by warming up the body without outright exposing it to high temperatures). Btw, Jynx didn't do as well as I expected. I thought it'd come very close to Alakazam if not overtake it.

I'm suprised Jynx has fans then again Bruxish does to.

Mine is Hypno (yeah shocker with my pfp lol) but Jynx is easilly my fav ice type Pokémon by a long shot

I wonder if that was because of the guy who helped him, BlueZangoose?

Would be fun to see a “rivals” series with Pokémon like Seviper/Zangoose, Heatmor/Durant, Carbink/Sableye (esp since hasn’t done a XY run yet), Corsola/Mareanie (for Alola), doing 2-mon runs with each of them or even pitting them against each other to see who’s faster.

The thing is that I thought he might be playing yellow instead of blue xD I miss seeing pokemon with weird colors too

@@StealthNinja4577 okay but hear me out: Yellow color palettes but they're all on the wrong Pokemon for next year's April Fools upload. Stuff like a green Geodude, blue Charmander, red Dewgong, etc

@@phoebe5114 I don't mind it'd be pretty funny if it was also using the original gen 1 sprites from Japan that look creepy

Alot of mons will probably get screwed in gen 3 due to the changes. Dugtrio for instance still only has normal/ground moves via level up. It can learn a few new TMs like thief/aerial ace but i dont remember if they are on sevii islands or not which could leave him in a magikarp situation once you hit pokemon tower.

@@GhengizKanye Aerial Ace is on Route 9, but also since Struggle can hit Ghosts past Gen 1 you can always try that at least.

Yup. No one is close. Especially MDB

@@leedsunited8787 Stop comparing people

@@marzbar5877 what about creating a super satirical rivalry? Something to the tune of: Mah Dry Bread doesn't wear pokemon themed underwear and calls himself a pokenerd psh.

@@stephenheller149 Now that’s fire

To this day, I still can't wrap my head around how someone could make such a big mistake. Like, didn't they have a testing team?

Ghost type: "You took everything from me" Dark type: "I don't even know you"

It’s a wonder the game even worked at all. Development was pretty rough and it had to meet a certain release date. Multiplayer battles were a last minute addition too, that’s why there are such broken moves such as wrap and fire spin.

@@SorenToKeiran-Murasaki Keep in mind how old this game is and how limited the hardware and the development tools were at that time. No comparison whatsoever to modern game development with sophisticated tools and much better hardware. The first pokemon games also are waaaay more complex than most, if not all, other Gameboy games at that time

@@BrawlLegendLink Still doesn't take much to ask Taro from the testing team to check if the type chart works as it's intended to. Especially when the type you're testing has ONE offensive move.

Probably due to all the controversy surrounding jynx, they've just dropped support so it wouldn't come up again.

Jynx is based on the Yamauba, a yokai similar to an ogre who lures victims to her icy lair with charms and magic.

I think you're the only one to get it so far, good job!

@@Jrose11 Thanks. 10 minutes in might not be the toughest competition ^^ Why did you (have to) change it?

Have you seen the Gen 1 Jynx back sprite?! It's basically a gollywog.

@@joshuacarder5690 I mean yes but many gen 1 sprites look..odd

It blows my mind bc I always remember in the show Ash,Misty and Brock go into that house to try and catch a ghost type (the 3 choices we had back then) to ask haunter to help battle Sabrina

Omg I remember it, I wish Jynx had a higher attack so its visual representation would‘ve seemed even more dangerous

That would include tradeback because there's no way to get an egg in a Gen 1 game.

Ice and Psychic covers literally everything. That's how Poliwag ended up in a high tier.

Rival 1A, both optional bug catchers and the lightyears trainer are mandatory and even then it took me 3 tries to beat Brock. Two optional trainers on the S.S. Anne for Body Slam and the Rare Candy and I think two optional trainers in Silph. Idk who is mandatory there. One was blocking the way to the heal spot and one was blocking the way to a Carbos. Rival 2 and the rocket grunt with Dig before Misty. Ice Beam then Erica, then Game Corner, Lavender Town, Koga/Safari, Silph, Blaine, Sabrina, Giovani. I thought this order would be best despite having to backtrack a little bit to pick up Strength. Everybody except Lorelei once and Final Rival were first try wins. Edit: Had to reset on Rival 6 and used 9 rare candies to beat him. Probably should have tried less, but it worked and I ended with great time.

@@critik_l Gen 1 Nidoking has always been disgusting for single-player runs. Imo the fact that speedrunners use it as their pokemon of choice is a testament to how good it is!

I also did a nidoking run last week and was alot of fun. Love me some Nidoking. My first game of blue in 20 years so was very suboptimal, but i know it won't touch mewtwo. Minimum battles after brock though is deffenently possible. I remember being SUPER hyped when Nidoking got sheer force in gen5, as i was already ripping teams apart in gen4 compeditive with the king.

well he's not gonna dethrone mewtwo cuz he was able to get the mewtwo run under 2 hours optimally

@@olivernguyen1709 speedrunners use x accuracy and horn drill for e-4 and champion though, would be harder for jrose with no items, still would be a solid time though im sure

I don't think it is. At least not on purpose. He said its the jynx sprite

also throwing a rock of ice at a fire lizzar would still hurt it, ice is hard

@@verdibyrd my thought is that the innate heat of fire type pokemon would melt a large portion of any ice type attack, so theyd be getting hit with slush mostly, which is basically half ice half water, the ice part wont do much but the water would, since fire type. Now if we assume its magical ice that doesnt melt, then yeah its basically just cold rocks which rock is super effective so cold rocks should be too lol.

@Sniper i still think it should be neutral effective, since it wont be 100% water, and the non water parts wont do much. I think it would be more slush than pure water, and from a gameplay perspective neutral is better. Dont need to give ice a 6th super effective type coverage lol.

after trying to clear my snowy driveway with a propane flamethrower two winters ago, I've realized how ineffective fire is against ice

And I think Ice should be super effective on Water or at least resist it. Water turns into ice when frozen, which gets rid of its liquid properties and essentially assimilates it. Heck, Freeze Dry exists so it’s not like they’re unaware. Most Water types rely on liquid to the point of needing it to move around, it makes zero sense that they would be strong against something that robs them of their primary movement option. And unlike Fire which was absolute trash and needed a buff in Gen 1, Water has always been a pretty OP type. Not as much as Dragon or Fairy, but still: Only two weaknesses, one of which Water types get free coverage for (because they can all learn Ice moves) and both of which were special types (so Water types with great special bulk like Milotic essentially had no weaknesses because neutral physical moves would do more than moves that were actually super effective), Surf as a free 95 BP STAB move (and Waterfall as a great physical equivalent after the split) that can be taught as many times as you wish and later on, they even got stuff like Scald so the Water types can freaking burn you too. One more weakness wouldn’t have hurt them and it would have solidified Ice as a high risk high reward type to use with high offensive effectiveness, but basically no defensive resistances.

Would be a strange list Abra would be top easy since he gets past Brock at around level 30 giving it an advantage. All Pokémon who breeze past Brock would have longer times due to being way lower level.

Just redo every run but with water gun hacked onto every pokemon Then you'll get a consistent post Brock time

Two problems: 1. He'd have to start from scratch 2. it'd be difficult to work out what moves they should or shouldn't have and there's a general lack of low damage early game moves for certain types. You aren't expected to have an ice type before mid-game so the weakest move is Aurora Beam, which is substantially stronger than moves like Ember and Vine Whip you would expect to have around Brock. I think this Gen I specific issue makes FRLG runs interesting comparisons. For example, in FRLG Jynx would have powder snow immediately.

Yea the jynx you can get from the trade is also expected to be gotten after going through diglet cave

@@StealthNinja4577 not mention the revved up XP from being a trade Pokémon. As for turning every Pokémon into a potential starter, I’d say they addressed this issue by creating baby Pokémon, like they did with Jynx in later generations

@@wilhelmisaac yea I kinda like the original cause they didn't think about all this stuff and it left room for fun challenges.

@@StealthNinja4577 very true. Early era video games really felt like they were made for the sake of being made more than for profit. They’re objectively flawed, but they’re made with love and imagination. Gen 1 in particular is a beautiful disaster of code, but it gives it such a distinct character that makes the actual gameplay far more memorable than later generations

JRose would be half Splash type and half Metronome type if he were a Pokémon and he'd win in under an hour somehow getting Horn Drill or Fissure every time.

I feel like the strategy side of Jrose would lend him to be a psychic type. And his sheer force of will to do challenge runs indicates fighting type. Thoughts?

@@keatonpost8970 I figured flying and grass due to the Jaybird and rose split, but I like your approach also. Psychic and fighting would be pretty solid in gen 1 I feel.

JRose as a bug-steel type with flash fire to give complete type immunity, because yeah.

@@TuffBaddi dude fighting type is garbage

In gen 1 GHOST attacks is immune to PSYCHIC. I don't think it's intentional but a programming error.

@@insectduel I think you might have it the wrong way round. Ghost type moves don't affect Psycic type pokemon, but Psychic type moves are Normal Effective against Ghost type pokemon. I actually always thought Psychic was Super Effective against Ghost types, but that's because in Gen 1, the only Ghost types are Ghastly, Haunter and Gengar, which are Ghost/Poison types. Psychic is Super Effective against the Poison typing, not the Ghost.

@@insectduel You have it reversed.

@@Hadaron I meant ghost attacks and I edited it.
