Smithplays made a video in a similar vein a little while ago, but I decided to put my own twist on it. The idea of starting Pokemon Gold/Silver in Kanto has always been fascinating to me, and now we get to see what would happen if, for some reason, the game started us in Pallet Town instead of New Bark Town*

Chikorita: Holy shit, I'm actually a good starter.
Cyndaquil: Wtf!? why?
Totodile: Meh.
I never went to kanto using ss ane, i always just surfed east from start town
Bruhh I would've atleast modded the chikoritato be bulbasaur
Was leveling up Chikorita to beat Brock not an option?
I'm still wishing they make pokemon black sun and white moon.
Combining Gen 5 and 7 in one game. Where you start in one region and post game in the other.
Stop taking money from raid shadow legends. It's shit. We all know it's shit, and noone believes that you play it or are 'excited' to say things about it.
Next do this in HGSS
The AI game shark code isn't all that impressive. The internet is full of gameshark codes and how to change various bytes that represent locations items or pokemon. The benefit of searching up the codes is you might find other codes you become interested in, locations with codes you can trust, meet people that can help you with codes, learn more about the way the code works with the game… just don't get that with AI
You know I understand you're all about that "real hardware, real experience, tedium is part of it" thing but like…brother sometimes you need to just bite the bullet and take the rare candy cheat pill like all the nuzlockers do, especially if it's not for a solo challenge where timing it is part of the point.
Like I don't see how having to struggle for hours to grind up to face the Rival is part of the "what if you started in Kanto" experience. Especially since you can just spend 100 hours grinding OVER a person and winning anyways. That's not really satisfying in terms of a "see how far you can get" imo.
As cool as the whole idea of having two regions was in Gen 2, the level cap was the one thing that really hurt it. I get that they thought that by this way people could've start a whole new region of a whole new team, except that the level spike to Red is way too high, and then even if you had the same team from Johto throughout all of Kanto, leveling your team for the Red battle by just repeating the E4 that are way weaker than the Gen 1 E4 was way too tedious. That's why I can't imagine replay GSC when it comes to Johto, but only HGSS.
Me: “oh there’s some mod that rewrites the game so you do Kanto first, cool”
Jrose: “uhhh… no”
I have thought for years a set of remakes where in one you start in kanto and one you start in johto but are otherwise the same game would be insanely cool
Love his fresh idea!!!!!!!
One off my favorite rom hacks is Crystal Clear where the gyms scale and you can start in any town. Pretty great.
Ding Dong Pookie! DING DONG!
Pretty funny that you hit that wall like that, but I think the video came out nice and compelling all the same! And definitely fun.
You should have just played Pokémon crystal clear instead
There exists a Gen.2 ROM-hack that lets you start your journey in Kanto.
Crystal Clear
Twitch Plays Pokemon's second custom game, Anniversary Crystal, had a similar concept – it was Crystal, except you started in Pallet Town and went all the way to SS Anne before it dumped you in Cherrygrove. Not really a full game like that, all the levels were changed, but…
You should bave farmed a light ball for pikachu!
Not an HM, but both Nincada and Trapinch can learn Dig if they delay evolution.
What was the point. You took a cool concept for a video and then ruined it for no reason. You already used a gameshark to edit the game. Why not go the extra step to add in the HMs you needed or to get back into Johto. I understand you were testing the limits of the game, but it was so obviously anti-climatic. It made the whole experience feel like a waste of time. Easily your worst video to date.
This challenge has made me wish that instead of Game Freak and Nintendo doing remakes, they would do "revisits" to a region after the original game's storyline similarly to what GSC did for Kanto and what B2W2 did for Unova. I think it would be cool if Game Freak made a mainline Pokémon game that started you at Pallet Town as a new character who isn't Red (Red and his mom would have moved away) and you have Blue/Green as your Professor (Oak retired). And after you gather the 8 Kanto badges, beat the Elite 4, you can go to Johto eegion that has aged as a post-game story and explore that region and do gym battles.
Great experiment. Looking forward to future videos
The real superboss of Kanto: Cooltrainer Quinn
33:30 Abra only took 12 hours 55 minutes to beat Brock.
In this kind of situations is better to set the rules and objectives and when the limit is reached, you stretch the rules as little as you can to be able to continue. Ending like is…..lame =/
And im actually a fan of the channel, just giving a feedback
As something a bit different, could you play Heartgold Generations.
I know you don't usually play rom hacks, but this is not a challange rom hack and is an interesting way to play through Johto and Kanto.
There are so many pokemon on each route that you could have a different tesm for each gym battle.
28:35 Nice Karl Jobst reference.
Fun challenge. I often find gold-silver-crystal runs to be a bit slow after the elite four.
This was fun and refreshing even though you ended up being locked in.
I loved that this happened it was a treat
I appreciate your commitment to very specific challenges largely trying to avoid modding.
That being said I have been thinking lately about what a gen 4 reverse HGSS would be like, ie Red/Blue with gen 4 mechanics plus reimagining johto as the postgame. I know there is a rom hack that has been working on this idea, although implementing the original Kanto story was the main focus and Johto isn't going to be touched until after that's finished.
<3 love u brodie. sry for the real spill on twitch every now & then. never change homie
Seaking, & Waterfall?
With Brock, didn't you have Chikorita as your starter?
I do not know how I feel about the new icon
Goldeen and seaking learn waterfall by level up
I never knew that "I'm on the road to Viridian City" was just about meeting Quinn
Why didn’t it show you with 3 badges when you beat Janine, Brock, and Sabrina?
