Can I please make a request? I'd love to see you do a snorlax run. So many people forget about it in gen 1
A 3 way race between Jynx, Elctabuzz and Magmar would be super cool, or even just between magmar and electabuzz
Hell yea sick
Of course I stuck around! I was rooting for mah boy Pinsir!
But I was surprised to see Scyther struggle this much, but yeah his movepool sucked in the earlier generations, poor guy needed some good stab moves like U-Turn hah!
And I always will say that Aerodactyl is the true final boss!
Quality stuff though man, you've become one of my faves to watch doing this stuff!
Keep it up! Hoping to see Electabuzz vs Magmar as well! 😀
I f*cking love these videos
A 3 way fight between all the original Eevolutions!
Oh scyther is bad I’m sad now
I'd like to see the difference in gen 3
I love how the Mimic TM winds up being crucial in a lot of these single-pokemon runs.
That was so fun! Thank you Scott! I found this kind of challenge really fun! I'd like to propose a dual challenge between Lapras and Jynx, maybe,… But sure I would enjoy any challenge you do! Thanks a lot, bye, have a good week!
Magmar vs Electabuzz could be a fun one!
I’m about a minute in at this moment, how does Pinsir have a way to deal with ghost types when it doesn’t know anything via Learnset that can take it on? It’s normal and fighting type moves and neither affect ghost.
Great vs video Scott, heres a few others that could pair up fairly well for future ideas:
Koffing vs Grimer (or evolved forms, or allowing them to evolve)
Psyduck vs Slowpoke (or evolved forms, or allowing them to evolve)
Magnemite vs voltorb (or evolved forms, or allowing them to evolve)
Mr Mime vs Jynx
Kangaskan vs Tauros
Keep up the great work!
I think pinsir is going to dominate!! I love that guy. I love em both but using a scyther can be a tad rough when he's low level
This versus format is by far the best for these challenge runs.
Electabuzz vs Magmar vs Jynx could be an interesting 3 way race.
Can you do lickatong vs kangaskhan
Keep it up hope u have more subscribers:)
I just saw this new channel im amazed:D keep it up:D
The race component is great! Love the comparison of unrelated pairs or trios! (the Trio-Trio of Dugtrio, Dodrio and Magneton?)
Love the challenge idea! Great content!
Scyther's back sprite looks terrible.
Coming Soon: Bellossom vs. Vileplume in Crystal
Really enjoyed this video! Just found your channel also. Only critique would be the video/progression could be displayed slightly faster!
Both were bad in their original games. Haven’t been exactly great going forward either but both either evolved and/or had a mega evolution by early gen 6 so ig they’ve had their time to shine (rip mega pinsir tho stealth rocks did him dirty)
Just wondering, why didn’t you allow pinsir to learn guillotine? 1 X accuracy and it would be 100% accurate? Or are items not allowed and I don’t pay enough attention? 😅
Pinsir is my favourite bug pokemon I love its mega and its design same as the stats but not as much at the learnset.
Gen 1 is weird because :
Gym leaders likely uses X defend, attack etc.
Poison is very affective against bug.
Fight can hurt ghost.
Fire spin, bind continues and your opponent can't move after that.
Tail whip and growl can failed!?
Karate chop is normal not fight.
Liked it before I even started watching
I knew it'd be fantastic from the get go and I was right ^^
You could've used a grass move for scyther to defeat the ice pokemon
Scizor evolved past scythers weaknesses it seems. If only pinsir had a, true, evolution. It would be truly powerful.
Imo mimic is better than wing attack. I bet that would have made this more competitive
Time for round 2, scizor vs pinsir in pokemon fire red or heart gold/ soul siver if your fancy. But in all seriousness thank you for posting such a fun video. Like most people I had red in gen 1 so I don't actually think I ever used a pinsir.
Do Magmar vs electabuzz G/S/C
Pinsir had to do something sneaky to Scyther to keep its lead. In video game races, there is a lot of cheating going on. Like in platform game races, it's not uncommon to trick an opponent into getting a game over just to get ahead of him.
Scyther, using Blaine to slow down Pinsir is not okay.
I'm glad Pinsir did so well. I feel like he's overlooked for Scyther especially since it evolves. Also I love Pinsir's pink shiny!
What if you did a run with only HM moves?
Scyther's backsprite looks like an alien holding a banana.
Hitmonchan Vs Hitmonlee same challenge. This will be interesting
Great narration, story telling and editing! Loved it!
Loved the video, and it is a really cool idea!
One thing I noticed though, since you have such high attack power, and swords dance, you could have taught hyper beam, and it would be an instant win for either, because in gen 1, if you get a KO, there isn't any cool down with it, so Blaine wouldn't be an issue.
I guess Pinsir will be slightly better
I really like this method of comparing.
Next race could be vulpix vs growlithe?
Jrose be like “so we start pinsir against charmander and- wha….WHAT insert lost music
