Ok…

Still not sure why you edit on Mac but record on PC.

To be fair when he was starting it sounded like an joke cause he’d overemphasize it lol

It appeared like all other memes on the channel. I just said something I thought sounded normal, mentioning my girlfriend, and then I got comments mentioning it. I realized how it looked: a grown man playing a kids game talking about his “girlfriend” and I thought that was funny if I just leaned into it. By the time I was getting married I still think there was some level of doubt that she existed haha

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Your "girlfriend" that we wouldn't know because she's from Canada, right?

Isn't Scott Canadian as well?

​@@arnepieters8330that's irrelevant

It does have 110 now, but by todays standard, there's a few more that beat it now as well; excluding Megas, it's Vileplume, both Exeggutors, Hydrapple, Roserade, Maractus, Arboliva, Sinistcha, Shaymin-Sky, Cacturne, Tangrowth, Liligant and Scovillain.

@@melindamuller4466 in the video he specifically mentioned that there was only 1 grass type in GS with a higher special attack. In GS, that Pokémon is Exeggutor, not Vileplume

@@nicholaskling2425 Yeah, I know, I was agreeing with you 😅

Yeah definitely a charming pair!

Ariados is probably my 2nd favorite design from gen 2. Obviously Scizor is #1

This was little kid me, convinced that Skarmory was good actually because how can something that cool looking not be good? He's still one of my favorite gen 2 pokemon today. Someday I'll have s game where I can shiny hunt one early on and find out just how bad he really is lol.

I am so sad Sunflora is so terrible. Sunkern’s adorableness and bad stats deserve much more upon evolution. In the style of Beldum or Magikarp or Ralts, it would be great if it evolved into something cracked (a Grass-type with huge stats). It would be extremely cool and flavorful to design a lame plant like Sunflora that happened to have some buffed stats. In the style of Azumarill’s gargantuan, unsuspected Attack or something

I dunno, Jumpluff is REALLY fun in Scarlet/Violet. you get Hoppip early and with some exploring you can get good TMs, plus forgetting and remembering moves on the go means you can tweak its moveset for whatever you need. Screen-setter, Weather-setter, Leech Seed Tank, Baton Pass Swords Dance, Charm/Cotton Spore debuffer, Sleep Powder terrorist, etc.

It's one of those Pokemon that would have been decent with a better learn set. There's several examples in the first 3 gens that have this problem.

Ya but, it's a sunflora not a sunkern lol

I have a Jumpluff in my Scarlet Team and I can always relay on it, such a good Jumpluff

Fast sleep and status is goated

@@silver_was_found Leech Seed is a god. My god Jumpfluff is incredible in a proper team.

Welcome to the Elite Four, how tough are ya? I beat Red. So? With a Sunkern... Oh uhh right this way, sir.

Wait, Sunkern isn't actually imposible? Picture me surprised, I was thinking it would be too weak for Red, even at level 100.

@@lenlimbo Curse strats are a hell of a drug

@@bryandauzat293 I guess... I was just not expecting for Sunkern to be able to survive long enough to use them XD I'm gonna guess it was with Pikachu, it's the only mon I can see sunkern surviving long enough, besides maybe venusaur.

Also there’s the chance where you stay confused for 4 turns (the full duration).

I don't believe that's quite how the math checks out. Taking into account of the AI having a 25% chance to fail a non-damaging move and Supersonic's accuracy, you're looking at around a 41.25% chance to hit, so let's use that as our base. Instead of taking each of these factors individually, you should instead think of it as "how likely is Jumpluff to move this turn". Paralysis has a 25% chance of making you miss your turn, and confusion has a 50% chance, so with these two factors, Jumpluff has a 37.5% chance to act, which means a 62.5% chance to NOT act (.5*.75 is your chance to move, so you invert that for the opposite). The next seven turns has Bite's 30% flinch chance added on to this, which makes the chance of Jumpluff acting a 26.25% chance, or a 73.75% chance of NOT acting. The final turn does not have confusion attached, so that turn "thankfully" has a 52.5% chance of Jumpluff being able to act, or a 47.5% chance of missing their turn. Supersonic Hitting*Parafusion*Parafusionflinch*Paraflinch = Probability (.4125)*(.625)*(.7375^7)*(.475) = ~0.0145, or about 1.45%, or a little above 1 in 100. Still unlikely for certain, but not nearly as astronomically unlucky as you propose it to be. As for the full turns of confusion...well that would be a bit harder to fully take into account, as I don't know how exactly it's calculated (is it determined how many turns you're confused for on confusion, or does it flip a coin to decide when you're free when you're in the 2-4 turn range). If it's the latter, we'd take into account that the two turns he got to try and burn the confusion chance failed, so those two turns are twice as unlikely, so the final probability of staying confused the full four turns with everything else is closer to ~0.36%, or a little above 1/280. If it's the former, then you just multiple the existing chance by 1/3, for ~0.48%, or about 1 in 208. And let's say you want to be REALLY generous and say "oh four of those turns were paraflinch only because they couldn't try and burn the confusion chance", then the above formula looks something like this: (.4125)*(.625)*(.7375)*(.475^4)*(.36875^2)*.475 = ~0.0625%, or around 1/1600 (The first turn was full parafusionflinch odds as you couldn't break out on that turn), which is significantly unluckier, but... Overall, no matter which way you look at it, while this battle was in fact quite unlucky, it is certainly not in the tens of thousands of magnitude you believe it is. also tl;dr didn't read or something for all the math nerds who don't care about this stuff

​​@@Flaming_Rok Yes, I admit that I likely missed several factors (and it didn't help that I did it when I was very tired), but similarly yes, that was absurdly unlucky. I've edited my post to make a note about this.

It did get beat by a few more by now, of course; it's Vileplume, both Exeggutors, Hydrapple, Roserade, Maractus, Arboliva, Sinistcha, Shaymin-Sky, Cacturne, Tangrowth, Liligant and Scovillain (disregarding Megas)

Sorry to hear that you've had a horrible couple of days. I'm sending good vibes your way with the extra content! Another video on Saturday.

Thanks Dylan!

to convey

Good catch. I’m being sloppy with my wording there.

It breaks the combo and resets the power. I learned this when facing the rival’s Gastly with Heracross a long time ago.

I found two withtin the first couple hours in Scarlet and then one much later. All full-odds. I was shook

@@henrymars6626 Legit shook?

​@@Gungho73yeah it caught me WAY off-guard and I took Milly with me while giving the other to my friend. My third one I can't remember what I did with it. Tbh not the first time I found a shiny in the first hour of a Pokémon game. Found a shiny Shinx in BDSP right at the beginning of my adventure. I am never this lucky.

@@henrymars6626 My first shiny in any non Stadium game was the first Entei I ever encountered. I had not met a legendary to that point so I had assumed given the dialogue in the game leading to that point that's just how they were treated! Color me surprised when I looked at a kids gameboy in daycare later and their Entei looked very different with no special effect.

Asking Snowy about the Curse interaction. I tried 1 Curse against Red because it doesn't meaningfully make Blastoise easier. Like yes Sunflora gets more attack but the turns to KO stays the same.

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon Ah, shame it works out that way. Thanks for the detailed answer!

HP does not directly affect the likelihood of Morty using Curse unless you were within one-shot range of Lick. From my understanding, the only way you can directly control Curse's odds of being used is by having more than one conscious party member on your team, but this only affects turn 2+.

@@SnowyTotodile Darn. Thanks for the response Snowy!

If you want to use it it's actually decent in pokerogue thanks to its passive ability

Not yet

Snowy made it as a modification within the disassembly. I don’t think it’s available anywhere yet. I’m going to try to get the tooling I used back to the community sometime this year. Plans are just moving more slowly than I anticipated.

@@ScottsThoughtsPokemon I figured it was disassembly based. No idea how to go about doing the specific mod to the spinners. I know how to blind them (give them a sight of 0, so they'd literally need to be bumping into you) or just make them not spin and only face one direction, but that mod you use is a custom behavior not in the game.

I wish sunflora could have been a sun team powerhouse: Grass-fire type A bit more bulk An ability that gains health in the sun (like rain dish) Weather ball and heat wave Could have been amazing
