Coming here to say this. Good God what goes wrong??

I didn't even realize it was that long, damn that's crazy.

Yeah just had that realization, it’s like “Oh he’s almost beat the elite four!” And I saw 20 more minutes....... oh yeah, fire type champion.

23:08

He has over 20 minutes left when he gets to N

I feel like I comment this on every video, but seriously I highly recommend hiding the time bar on JRose videos. It makes the E4 section in particular so much more suspenseful

@@loulou3676 how does one hide the time bar

@@PresidentNathan just move your cursor away from the time bar, and don't move it again. The time bar will fade away after a couple seconds. I recommend watching while eating, washing dishes, or some other activity where you're not touching the computer, that way you won't be tempted to check the remaining time

@Lindsay Fikes the government doesn't want us to know... Delibird is god ...😂

But delibird sucks

@@exaltedfalcheon1793 I know I don't get it either. Rotem was mislabeled a legendary too but at least that makes some sense

well pachirisu had the stars that the legends had... now we know why.

@@diogi_1736 I thought rotom was a legendary for so long because of that and the fact you only get 1. Up till gen 7.

He does it on purpose I tells ya. He knows it gets to people and he's pure evil, EVIL!

At least the pronunciation of Lorelei is kind of subjective. The way he pronounces Ghetsis is just flat out wrong.

Geetsus

I have no problem with either pronunciation

@@iceicicle3046 Your name is too thematic and its making people feel insecure. I am afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

HAHA HAHA oh god now that if I think of it..

"I thought it would be a easy holiday themed run." Sees delibird in thumbnail, I dont think so In Gen V, less exp when overleveled, no

It’s way easier than trying to beat it with a caterpi lmao

Delibird is better than many pokemon he used & can learn solid tms so in other games it probably would have been an easy run

lmao this comment made me spit out my drink laughing

and if Pikasprey had a consistent upload schedule.

@@plebisMaximus if you watch his let's plays he uploads super frequently actually. It's only his soft lock challenges that are sporadic, and I assume that's because it's hard to keep finding new soft lock situations

I mean to be fair, just because he doesn't like it doesn't mean he isn't going to use it

Working out the reasonably lowest luck-based strategy for a run wouldn't be a thing, if luck didn't exist. So the obvious conclusion is just that the more luck-based his moveset, the better his stats have to be for a reasonably reliable strategy.

@@TheHadMatters There was a lot of "l" and "r" sounds in this post.

@@wewhoareabouttodiesaluteyo9303 yes, that is a true statement

The reason he doesn't do it in the Gen 1 runs is because it's a race and everyone should be on equal footing to see where they place.

He sounds like Chris McClean

@@fletchqc9900plot twist: he is chris mcClean

same here, hell yeah

Horrible timing for me. I live in central time and was just about to sleep when I saw how long the video length was...

True, just chilling at work with nothing to do so... At least one hour is filled now :D

Same same

@@sbcistheboss use the video to play I’m the background to sleep and give it another watch when you are awake! He gets two views and you get to see the video lol I do that from time to time

He should beat himself up with releasing it just a couple days after Christmas

@bonnome2 No, he shouldn't. It's not his fault gen 5 games weren't kind to Delibird.

@@richarddill692 fair point

He's not beating himself up. He's Canadian, apologizing profusely is part of his culture

@@jamesR1990 Wait... what sort of things did Canadians do? I’m one myself but what other things? I’m not surprised Canadians have done bad things but what else If ya mind telling meh that is

the adjusted experience curve isnt that bad.... iuf you are doing a single pokemon run, you can still pretty easily get to 70 by the time of the Elite four. so, not that big a factor as you might think.

LMAO so I thought too, Gen II. But dang, Jrose is a miracle worker.

@@matthewbarabas3052 it is a pretty big factor when your pokemon is bad enough to need ten levels over the first few gym leaders

@@hi-i-am-atan thats fair enough. i did pokemon single runs with tepig to emboar and lillipup to stoutland, the earlier gyms are actually a hassle sometimes.

Hoooo boi the elite four is goin to give him a hard time

Truly one of the top trainers in the land

he wanted to do less damage so foul play doesn't knock you into your healing range.

Actually I think foulnplay is based on base, not actual.

@@deadlytoaster1422 Nope, Foul Play uses the target's actual Attack stat (which also includes stat modifications) and the user's modifications like burn or items.

YES! My favourite Pokemon!

@@settralives Thank you. Finally. Someone else that likes Koffing/Weezing just as much as I do.

@@maruku4445 I see a lot of love around for Koffing specifically, not so much Weezing. I’ve always been more of a Grimer/Muk man, but hooray for communal love of sludge/pollution!

@Generation156 be careful with that word. Anzu/Tea likes to use it and if used in drinking games your liver won't like you after playing the friendship drinking game.

I would loooove to see this!! Stadium or Stadium 2 challenges seem super rare for some reason. They're much more interesting to watch because of the 3d graphics (that are much livelier than modern Pokemon games).

He has a really old challenge on his channel where he plays a challenge cup blindfolded

@@giladdrillich2350 I loved thatr. Would kill to see him play the harder cups.

@@loulou3676 stadium 2 is brutal if you're only using rentals. many trainers use super cheap strategies (karen in gym leader castle) and i believe your pokes are technically underpowered compared to the pokes you fight, particularly in R2. it's a really, really long game, too (current speedrun WR is ~20 hours). i think it's worthy of certain challenges using rentals like monotype or using pokemon from one evolutionary line (bulbasaur, ivysaur, venusaur etc)

@@giladdrillich2350 thanks fam I can't wait to check it out. JRose, Pokemon and blindfold challenges, 3 of my favorite things.

No hall of fame. Its not official, and seeing as they broke the computer with their stupid 2D castle, you have to come back later. But of course they forget to stamp your hand so you have to pay full price of admission, and the staff pretends not to recognize you so you have to do everything again.

I think N couldn't be champion officially because he never beat the gym leaders, he just showed up at the league with a legendary and Alder let him in because he wanted the battle to happen too.

Does the battle with N not qualify as "first hall of fame" on the pc?

@@crimsoncutz8430 If he can beat the best pokémon trainer in the region, he can beat the best trainers gang.

He actually is the first trainer to refuse becoming the champion after winning the League. It's actually a pretty interesting insight into his intentions as a character, and I really appreciated the nuance behind that decision. Seems others had a different opinion on this outcome though, I really enjoy this ending a lot and I feel like it's particularly fitting for the story being presented here. Especially since it's breaking the fairly repetitive mold of "muh muh champion battle". But also, for how he got in, I'm almost sure Team Plasma was behind the scenes manipulating everything so that even if he lost, the League would be threatened in the same way as before. I'm sure they either had people collect badges for him or blackmailed the officiators to let him in to fight the E4 and champ behind his very own back. This I mostly feel due to the castle under the League and Ghetsis already being there??? Like it was almost as if the League was doomed from the moment they set foot in it. I think this is kind of an interesting meta discussion in it of itself because it doesn't get talked about often and could lead to some cool theories IMO.

I don't mind them honestly. There's enough rival fights to make up for the exp changes lol.

@Pissed Off White Guy I’m starting to see you more and more

I play gen 5 all the time for my own solo runs and have never had an issue with the EXP. maybe its cause I rarely play any other games to see what the EXP is like there

@@ArthurTRead probably part of it is that a lot of gen 5 runs on youtube are being done on youtuber production schedules, so they genuinely do have to do things as fast as they can

They also do it with Xerneas/Yveltal in XY, too. It's not a unique thing to BW and Gen 7.5.

@@thattruegamernerd The point is you can’t choose to put them in the box, only what party member you’re replacing for them. I don’t tenement if X/Y doesn’t do this but apparently you can’t with ray, it’s forced into your party or yeets something to get in.

Ikr. I thought i'm the only one..

Glad someone else was bothered by this lol

I’ve just learned to accept the poor pronunciation...like the stubbornness to keep saying “LoreLEEEE”

@@OfficialBugBoi this isn't poor pronunciation, this is a literal misreading

I...I've always pronounced it Ghestis lmao. I never noticed at all that its not spelled that way!

ASH WAS CHANDELURED INTO HIS DEAD-UH-LY TRAP

Only those moves + quad weak to rock sounds impossible for gen 2. I would've allowed TMs and HMs at that point. I guess you could hold bright powder or something

Know your location

@@UnknownVir I wanted to see how it would go and it went pretty far. I remember having to be Level 70 or so to beat Jasmine, that was another huge road block. But Present healing the opponent is such a bitch sometimes, it's the biggest reason it becomes so difficult (besides Delibirds typing).

oo I remember doing a delibird only run of crystal. Using only Present and Struggle definitely makes it near impossible, but with a normal moveset, the game is actually pretty easy

Present's damage is bugged in Gen II.

...But they contain sitrus berry-cookies 20% of the time!

Probably! Words are pronounced differently in other countries or even within countries, even if it’s spelled the same. I remember learning french people can’t pronounce a certain letter how americans can, which makes them pronounce certain words in english weird.

We pronounce terrier like Americans do, he probably just wasn't thinking about that.
