snorlax's health took sooo long to drop i finished college got a wife and raised 2 wonderful kids

*snorlax’s countdown went to zero* -hp drops -skip 10 s -hp is still dropping

Espeon: Battonpassing the perish song to Blastoise Blastoise: excuse me wtf

Pokémon players: why do you lose so much in online battles? The people I play against:

When I was a kid, I would turn off my Pokemon game everytime the move Perish song was used because I thought that my Pokemon would perish forever after 3 turns.

Let's talk about the real MVP here. Drizzle getting rid of hail.

Poor RED, he even can't use his special move..... "FULL RESTORE"

“All Pokémon who hear the song will faint in three turns” Spirit: aight ima head out

All that training red done just to be beaten by a bunch of level 1's. I would disappear out of embarrassment as well if that was me.

Red: Uses any move Shedninja: *So you have chosen death*

Moral of the story Protect Focus Sash Perish song

To be honest: "...!" is the only possible reaction to this outcome.

Red: Level 1? You are a fool for coming here, I will grind your bones to dust! Shedinja: *omae wa mou shindeiru.*

So this is why red is always silent lmao

Moral: Focus Sash Perish Song

Blastoise: Why did you give me Perish Song? Espeon: I mean, I also gave you a substitute. That's pretty good, ri- Blastoise: BITCH IM GONNA DIE!

Imagine traveling across the map and searching far and wide just to have your level 91 Espeon get bodied by a level 1 bubblebutt

"Using Perish Song makes both Pokemon faint in 3 turns." SPIRIT: "No, I don't think I will."

"There's no skill or strategy in Pokémon. All that matters are type matchups and levels"

The AI for Red is actually shockingly good here... knowing when to switch Pokémon and also using an effective baton pass strategy?? Like damn

Who would win? The previous champion of Kanto. Or Some kid that became a trainer 30 minutes ago.

Red: "YEARS OF ACADEMY TRAINING WASTED."

Whats really impressive is that the computer knew to do calm mind, substitute then baton pass. That's some high level shit at the time.

He definitely jumped off that mountain 🏔 after that

How to annoy red 101

Red: "I'm going in the mountains, leave me alone" Shedinja: "Then perish"

Snorlax's hp took so long to drop my dad got back from the store with the milk

Espeon: Here, Blastoise; have two Calm Mind boosts, a Substitute, aaandaperishsong-- Y'WELCOMEBYE!!! Blastoise: Wait, what was that last thing!?

Once I saw the shedinja I felt a great disturbance in the force

Everyone talking about snorlax's hp drop being so long... imagine if Trapinch's level ups weren't sped up Edit; I mean kog'maw I'm so sorry

Shedninja: *exists* Red: *chuckles* I’m in danger

I watched this 6 years ago and the snorlax hp just finished dropping

Your team Vs. Reds is literally every time Ash took on a Gym

Movesets: Perish Song Protect Destiny Bond Detect Item: Focus Sash Ability: Wonder Guard

Okay, you gotta admit: canceling out the hail with politoed's ability? GENIUS

Pokémon lv99: *dies Pokémons lv1:looks like XP's back on the menu boys.

Shedninja: *Appears* Red: Why do i hear boss music?

R.I.P. Cathy BubbleButt Bamf We will always remember you and your efforts

Kog’maw before the battle: I’ll have her home by seven sir. Kog’maw after the battle: she calls me daddy too

No one going to mention the hilarious crit on a level 1 misdreavous and holds on with a focus sash like the crit even mattered 😂

I miss the days when pikachu's cry wasn't "pika" yet

The lesson here: Train smart, not hard.

No wonder Red didn't say a word after the match ended. I just hope he's OK...

I fear no man but that thing... "Spirit used perish song!" it scares me

he jumped off the mountain

Red: level 1 pokémon? is this a joke? Perish Song, Destiny Bond, Protect, Wonder Guard, and Focus Sash: *allow us to introduce ourselves*

“Pokémon will perish after hearing the song” Spirit: No. I don’t think I will

This gives new meaning to Red’s silence

Red ragequit so hard he phased out of existence.

The Virgin lv 90 red's team vs the Chad lv 1 team

I thought this was some troll video where your pokemon just die instantly lmao, mad respect

We are gonna ignore the fact that reds pikachu knows surf

Espeon: *passes perish song over to blastoise* Blastoise: yo wtf

I started watching snorlax's HP drop in 2014 Finished dropping just now

When Red's "........" is literal.

Red probably jumped off the cliff after that battle.

“......................................” -the only proper response

Red ragequited

Just imagine forgetting perish song accidently while leveling up...

Red: loses* Trainer: yay I won Red:... jumps off mountain* Trainer: … Trainer: hey! You’re supposed to pay me!

*youngster Joey* *challenges* *you* *to* *a* *battle*

For reference, Snorlax's health bar started falling from 1:59 to 2:14

Imagine how deadly and underrated a move like perish song would be in the natural Pokémon world.. just walking around singing perish song and all pokemon dropping dead behind you lol.

So beating a level 93 Pokemon only gives 3000+ exp I was expecting more

Random person: I beat the elite 4 with a level 1 Rattata! King Kazma: Hold my Moomoo milk

You: Hey Red I need you to help me train all these pokemon I just hatched! Red: ...? You: Fantasic i knew you would and remember dont hold back! Red: *shrugs shoulders* Moments later: You: Thanks red see ya tomorrow! Red: .... WHAT THE FU-

Its so dramatic even the Rain continues to fall

You know, while the perish song/protect/focus sash thing was neat, I still find the AI for Red in this kind of impressive too. It was smart enough to make him switch pokemon that had super effective moves whenever Shedinja came out, and he switched out pokemon that had low perish counts on a couple of occasions too. The times he didn't were usually when it seemed he could knock one of the other pokemon out. Maybe it's just me, but I haven't really come across an in-game battle with an NPC that was this...aware? Strategic? I don't know what word I could use to describe it. The point is, I want to see this level of AI, or more, in the games.

Hail and rain at the same time? Are you battling in Canada??

For anyone wondering this is a difficulty enhancement mod of heartgold and soulsilver called perfect heart and perfect soul

Pokemon who hear the song will faint in three turns Spirit: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that

Red: Exists Shedninja: *plays funeral dance meme*

"WELL I GUESS SINCE YOU LEVELED UP AFTER THE SNORLAX THIS DOESNT COUNT"

I thought the joke was going to be that red wiped out the team instantly. But no... the madman actually did it!!!

Imagine how tragic this would have been if any of Red's pokemon had PURSUIT

Everyone report Blastoise for feeding Kog'Maw

That Espeon play though. I wasn't expecting Battle Frontier levels of AI

The amount of thought that must have gone into this is insane

Ah yes, back when weather-inducing abilities lasted indefinitely instead of just 5 turns 👌

Hol up, what we need to talk about is how that trapinch only gained TWELVE levels from a level 93 snorelax?!

"Did I ever tell you the definition..... .....of insanity?"

Red:nOOO yoU cAn't SPaM pEriSh SONg alL tiMe King Kazma: haha perish song go brrrrr

14:46 I love how Red goes like "I'm outta here"

Pokemon Trainer RED vs my PERISH SONG Team

Red: ... TRANSLATION: What the hell. I am the CHAMPION of Kanto. And I was beaten by a kid with level 1 Pokemon.

I think this qualifies as art

Espeon: 3 calm minds in a row, nobody can stop me Murkrow: Take this perish song Espeon: It's your time Blastoise *Batton Pass* Blastoise: Ah shit, here we go again

Everybody else: Bubblebutt Spirit Kog'Maw Yogo Bamf Misdreavus: *CATHY*

some say the rain continues to fall till this day.

Although this team was hacked, I have to admit, that was a great level 1 team to destroy Red :)

Lvl 1 Shedinja Lvl 1 Politoed Seems legit

Now beat him with Magikarp

Anime be like "oh wow! The bond between you and your Pokémon must be unmatched!!" 🙄

If anyone's wondering how he's doing this even though it shouldn't be possible in Gen 4, it's happening for 2 reasons: 1. He's using an edited party. 2. He's playing Pokemon Sacred Gold/Storm Silver (a hacked version of HeartGold and SoulSilver). The hack makes the game harder and lets you catch all 493 Pokemon in one game. The hack also messes around with Pokémon movepools, evolution methods, typing, abilities and stats, hence why Politoed has Drizzle in this game. It also makes enemy teams harder than the vanilla game, hence why Red's team are almost all Lv.100s, and why he's got Espeon instead of Lapras.

Red, the most legendary Pokemon trainer in the known regions Kanto and Jhoto and possibly beyond, suffered his biggest and most bitter defeat to an unknown trainer from New Bark Town. Red would fall into a deep depression, spending his days in Celadon City, gambling and drinking his earnings away until he had no money left. To fuel his habits, he would sell his Pokemon, but he would eventually find himself broke again. Alone and depressed, Red sits in a dark alley as the rain pours down on top him, holding a bottle of rare candies in his hand. Realizing this was the end for him, he downed the bottle of rare candies all at once. In his final moment, all he could think about was how the hell some nobody trainer with a team of level 1's managed to get the best of him. So ends the story of Red, the fabled trainer from Pallet Town whose tragic fall from grace would be a testament to young trainers that just because your pokemon is higher level and knows stronger attacks, does not mean they are better. That pokemon are only as strong as their trainers make them to be.

I'm still waiting for my turn to die, cuz I've been listening to so many perish songs and nothing has happened yet

*_Nerf Perish song_*

And just like that, Red committed seppuku.

The fact that you have the switch option to set proof of how badass you are.

I feel so cheated that he didn’t use Ratata with endeavour and quick attack
