- Greetings, Pokefans! Michael here, and today
I'm going to be trying my toughest Pokemon
playthrough challenge yet. Can you beat Pokemon Platinum... That covers all the intro
stuff, so let's dive in! The first step is picking a starter, and I went with Piplup. Those of you familiar with
my content might be confused by this pick since in the
past I have not been shy about my disdain for Empoleon. However, I thought that maybe
by choosing this Pokemon and embarking on such
an incredibly difficult and challenging journey together, the two of us might form a bond. A James Bond. I named the Piplup James. Next, I caught a Starly since a strong Pokemon like
Staraptor will be necessary for a challenge such as this. I named it Nimbus, but it had an Attack lowering nature, so I caught another one. I named this one Stratus, but it had a Speed lowering nature, so I caught another one. I named it Cirrus and it had
a Defense lowering nature which I could live with,
so I went with this one. After a bit of training, I had my second battle
with my rival, NotSubd because after all those who
are not subbed are the enemy. Make sure to subscribe, everyone. Turn on notifications. You know the thing. By the way, I won my first
battle against my rival. I didn't mention that earlier
because it didn't work well with the timing of the James Bond joke because my Piplup did
not have a nickname yet. So anyways, for the second battle, I won it easily thanks to Cirrus OHKOing both of his Pokemon. The next event of note
was the first gym battle against Roark. James took down Geodude with one hit, then Onix with two thanks to a Potion. This made James level up
to its evolution level 16, and I became worried that
if it got all the experience from Cranidos, it would level up again and miss Prinplup's level
16 Metal Claw as a result. This led me to do some wacky switching, bringing in Cirrus for a bit, but after surviving with just four HP, James took down Cranidos. After the battle both
James and Cirrus evolved, each receiving an increase in power and a decrease in cuteness. I made my way to Floaroma Town and the Valley Windworks without
catching any other Pokemon which meant it was soon
time to battle Mars and her demonic Purugly. Cirrus took down Zubat but took a crit Bite in the process. Then came the true threat, the Purugly. Thanks to this fat cat somehow
being faster than my bird, it got Cirrus down to red HP before Cirrus could even land one hit. I withdrew Cirrus so I
could bring it back in and Intimidate later, so in went James. While the Purugly repeatedly attacked, James kept using Bubble, which was weak but had a
chance to slow it down. James got Purugly down
to about a quarter health before falling, but his sacrifice allowed
Cirrus to come back in and land a crit Quick Attack,
winning me the battle. To be honest, I do not
know if the crit mattered for that last Quick Attack, but if it did, oh my God, oh my God, I would have lost. I told you guys, this is a brutally difficult
playthrough challenge. A little while later, I
arrived in Eterna City to admire the statue that
I made that color edit of that's gone wildly viral. Seriously I see my own picture
on my Instagram explore page like at least once a week. Then I challenged Gardenia
for the second badge. Cirrus OHKO'd Turtwig right away. Cherrim took a few hits
to KO due to its bulk and some Potions, but Cirrus eventually took it down after only taking one hit. Finally was Roserade which Cirrus OHKO'd. A terrifyingly close battle,
but one that ended in victory. Real quick side note for
those who don't know, whenever I say I OHKO'd something, OHKO is O-H-K-O which is short for one hit knockout. I took it down using just one attack. With cut in hand, I could
now oust Team Galactic from their own building. On the top floor I had to battle Jupiter, and James took her Zubat out using just a couple BubbleBeams. In came Skuntank whose Night Slash did a
disturbingly large amount, and my BubbleBeams did
disturbingly little. James only landed one hit before falling, but this allowed Cirrus to
come in and Intimidate it. Cirrus repeatedly Wing Attacked while Skuntank failed to
land any Poison Gases. Finally Cirrus took it down. Another incredibly difficult battle in this very tough challenge. Once that was done, I decided
to head to Wayward Cave. With how difficult of a
playthrough challenge this is, I need strong Pokemon, and
what Pokemon could be stronger than the strongest
trainer's strongest Pokemon. That's right, I wanted Garchomp. All I had to do was make a beeline for the secret segment of Wayward Cave, go in there, and catch a Gible. But then what happened next, well, I think it's better
to show you than tell you. What? What? Oh my God! I don't believe this. I don't believe this. I have not modded the odds of this game. I just... What? Oh my God. And I have it on camera. I think might just huck
Pokeballs 'cause it's a Zubat, it's gotta have a high catch rate, right? (Michael laughs) What? I named my full one in 8,000
odds shiny Zubat Ambush because it was one of
the synonyms for surprise on thesaurus.com, and I just
thought it sounded really cool. After that chaos, I finally
did what I intended to do in Wayward Cave and caught a
Gible I later named Kalahari, and also biked my way through
to get the TM for Earthquake which is a crazy strong
TM to get this early. I began training up
Ambush who shortly evolved into a glorious green Golbat. Alliteration! And then I went to the
other side of Wayward Cave to rescue Mira, and in that process,
Kalahari evolved into Gabite. After this, I decided to look up Gabite and Garchomp's level up move set 'cause I wanted to see when
they learned a ground type move that was stronger than Sand Tomb, and I was disturbed to see they
didn't get Dig 'til level 40 and also never got Earthquake by level up. But, I just got the Earthquake TM, might as well use it! I promptly taught Kalahari Earthquake, meaning I had a Gabite with
Earthquake before the third gym. This was going to be fun. Before long it was time
for the third gym battle against Fantina. Despite using Ambush to Bite my way through the gym trainers,
I led with James. I did this because I knew
her Duskull knew Will-o-Wisp, and James was my only special attacker who did not care about
the burn attack drop. James was burned right away, so clearly I made the right call. My penguin friend took a
beating in the process, but he was eventually
able to take Duskull down. As she brought in Mismagius,
I switched to Ambush. Ambush bit first, flinching Mismagius and preventing a Psybeam. It healed with its Berry, but Ambush simply had to
Bite again to take it down. Finally was Haunter who barely
held on from the first Bite and then put Ambush to sleep. She healed while I slept, but
then Ambush woke up quickly, biting once more and ending the battle. My unsubscribed nemesis then
attacked me in the gate, but with the combined
efforts of my powerful team, I took him down no problem. My subsequent journey to
Veilstone City was uneventful, and thanks to the power
of both Ambush and Cirrus, I felt comfortable immediately
challenging Maylene's gym. First, Ambush immediately OHKO'd Meditite. Ambush's next Wing Attack did
about two thirds to Machoke, but then it fired back with
a critical hit Rock Tomb, taking out most of Ambush's
health and lowering its speed. Due to my fear of being out
sped, I swapped in Kalahari who after tanking a Rock Tomb
was able to take down Machoke with Dragon Rage. In came her ace Lucario, which struck with a powerful Force Palm. Kalahari tanked it though and fired back with just one Earthquake, taking down Lucario and
winning me the battle. After that, I knew my next gym
battle up was Crasher Wake, the water type gym leader. And since I didn't have any
grass or electric type Pokemon, I knew it was time to expand the team. My first order of business
was to enter the Great Marsh in an attempt to find a Tangela, which let me tell you was
pretty fricking annoying. These things like to flee! After catching as many as I could before running out of Safari balls, which was only four! I told you it was annoying. I grabbed the strongest one which I named Tether and
added it to my squad. I did sadly bench Cirrus
the Staravia to do this which was a shame because
I quite liked using him, but it didn't make
sense to keep him around when I already had Ambush who I definitely intended to keep around. I wanted to keep
expanding the team though. And the next team member I decided I wanted to use was Gallade. I'm quite fond of Gallade and have used it in playthroughs before, but never in a Platinum team. I really wanted it because it's
really strong, really cool, and also it's fighting type
I knew would be very useful. I caught a few male Ralts and Kirlias and added the strongest one
to my squad, named Gallant. After fetching the hidden
Dawn Stone west of Pastoria and then leveling up Gallant just once so it could become Kirlia, I used the Dawn Stone
to make it a Gallade. And then I spent a long, long time training it up, and it was annoying to do because it's only attack was Magical Leaf which is a special attack, not good for a physical attacking Gallade. And I had to get it from
like level low 20 something all the way to level 31
to teach it Psycho Cut, so that was, that was dull. But at least there were a
bunch of water and ground types to the west of Pastoria for
me to KO repeatedly, a lot. I was then going to train up
Tether against the gym trainers but I forgot about NotSubd
attacking me at the door. And this became my toughest
battle with him so far since his team was noticeably
higher level than mine. I immediately had to withdraw Tether because he led with Staravia,
and I went in with Ambush. Thankfully Staravia's Double
Team didn't make me miss, so Ambush took it down with a couple hits. In came Ponyta which James almost OHKO'd as it lowered his defense. Then Ponyta hit back with a crit Stomp which did so much damage. But James held on and finished off Ponyta. Next was Grotle, which took a very long
time for Ambush to KO due to it using Withdraw so many times, but it finally got the job done. Last was Buizel which
Tether handily defeated. Let me tell you, that critical hit Stomp, meaning a Ponyta almost
took out my water type, that made the adrenaline go, ha ha! I could finally enter the
gym to train up Tether, and during that process
it learned Ancient Power and evolved into Tangrowth. A little while later, it
was time for the gym battle, and it started horrifically! Wake led with Gyarados, and I with Tether since
I had no electric type. First it bit me and flinched me. I knew that could be a problem, so after that, I started
to go for Stun Spores to make Gyarados slower than me. I then missed three
consecutive Stun Spores of which the chance to do so is only 1.5%, and then flinched on the following turn. Flinch, three misses, flinch. I did nothing for the first five turns! Finally, I landed a Stun Spore, but I was forced to heal since
Tether was down to red HP. I then had to use all of my Ancient Powers plus a Mega Drain to defeat the Gyarados, since when I got it down to
low health, he healed as well. I did not get the omniboost
any of those times either. Can I just say that in all
my Platinum playthroughs over the year, including this
incredibly challenging one, the most difficult Pokemon to defeat in my experience tends to
be fricking Gyaradoses! Do they have a four times weakness? Yes. But they tend to be pretty fricking fast and carry ground moves. Wake, Cyrus, stop using your Gyaradoses. They're very annoying. Finally, the cursed Gyarados was down, and in came Floatzel. It's Ice Fang did a solid chunk to Tether, but Mega Drain healing allowed
it to stay alive for two hits and then take out Floatzel with two hits. Finally, it was Quagsire
which was an easy one-shot. The battle was won, but not
without its frustrations. What an incredibly difficult
challenge this is, my gosh. After some defogging and such,
I made it to Celestic Town. Then while training against the trainers to the west of town, both James and Ambush
reached their final forms after the same battle,
which was very exciting. Then it was time to oust
Cyrus from the ruins, and immediately I was in trouble. His three Pokemon are
Sneasel, Golbat, and Murkrow. My only super effective moves for Sneasel were Ancient
Power on a grass type and Metal Claw on a special attacker. My only super effective moves for Golbat were Ancient
Power on a grass type and Psycho Cut on a fighting type. And then my only super effective move for Murkrow was Ancient
Power on a grass type. He led with Sneasel,
and I led with Gallant which forced me to switch to James since Psycho Cut can't hit Sneasel and it was my only attack
besides Magical Leaf. Sneasel Screeched James twice, dropping it to minus four Defense, and James' BubbleBeam did
less than half in return. I got scared and switched to Tether, thinking its bulkiness would
save it from the ice moves, but this was wrong! Not only did Ice Punch do more than half, but it froze Tether! I brought back in a
refreshed defense James and used Metal Claw this time which I clearly should
have used the first time since it KO'd. In came Golbat, and I brought in Gallant. The first Air Cutter did less than half, and Psycho Cut almost OHKO'd. Cyrus healed, and I Psycho Cut again, which once again barely did not KO. The next turn I somehow outsped, and that finished the Golbat. Finally was Murkrow who I
brought in Kalahari for. Its Drill Peck did one
less than half health, and my Dragon Claw did a lot, but it healed with its Berry. It Drill Pecked again but got
a better damage roll this time and took down Kalahari. I brought in James who took a Night Shade, barely did not KO with BubbleBeam, then did KO with Aqua Jet the next turn. The primary lesson from
that battle was that my God, I needed some coverage
against flying type Pokemon. Now that I could Surf,
I got the Brick Break TM from the Oreburgh Gate basement, finally teaching Gallant
a fighting type move. Not long later, I arrived in Canalave City where NotSubd challenged me on the bridge. This battle sucked. His stupid Staraptor
got up six Double Teams, and it took me 11 Surfs
to hit it one time! But thankfully that was all I needed. Against Heracross I of course
missed one more time with Fly, but the second hit from
Ambush defeated it easily. Kalahari easily defeated Rapidash, and Ambush took down the
substantially higher level Torterra in a few turns. Finally was Floatzel, which
Tether easily defeated. I then headed off to Iron Island to do some much needed grinding, and in the process of doing that, well, you're not gonna
believe what happened. But I have witnesses 'cause it happened while I was on call with
PokeMEN7 and Suuperblaah, so let's just roll the clip. Yes! What? - [John] What'd you find? - [Michael] A Graveler! - [John] Dude, they blow up! - [Nick] It's gonna blow up! - [John] It's gonna blow up! I found a shiny Graveler in
fourth gen and it blew up on me. - [Michael] What? - [John] Mikey, it's going to blow up. - [Michael] What do I do? - [Nick] All right, what level is it? - [Michael] 32. - [Nick] Okay, 32. - [Michael] In Platinum. - [Nick] Yes, it has Magnitude,
Selfdestruct, Rollout, and Rock Blast. - [Michael] Oh my God, are you kidding? - [Nick] I would start
chucking balls at it. Like, that's the most logical thing to do 'cause it can blow up. - [Michael] Throwing a ball. One. Broke out. Oh, it shines again
every time it breaks out, that's kind of rude. Magnitude Five. Ultra Ball number two. One, two, three. Oh, it broke out! No! - [John] Oh no. - [Michael] It's rolling out! Oh wait, this is great. It's locked into Rollout! - [Nick] Okay. It says 64 to 77% from a level 37 80 Attack Empoleon to a very minimum Defense
level 32 Graveler. - [Michael] Okay, so I'm
probably fine, but it could, but a crit is- - [Nick] A crit would kill. - [John] Your best bet of
catching is probably to attack then Ultra Balls. Obviously it's risky, but there's always the
risk it goes boom boom. - [Michael] That's true. All right, I'm Metal Clawing. It did half. - [John] Oh good! - [Nick] Okay, good. - [Michael] The next Rollout did not miss, so it cannot boom. Ultra Ball. One, two, three. Yes! Let's go! I named the shiny Graveler
Korg at John's suggestion. - [Korg] Allow me to introduce
myself, my name is Korg. - [Michael] And evolved
it into a shiny Golem not long later. But anyways, Korg became a
new staple member of the team, meaning I did bench Kalahari the Gabite which I didn't want to do, but also this was a full odds shiny, guys. I kinda gotta use it. And then later that same day
while battling alongside Riley, this happened. Hello... I got another shiny Graveler. Somehow? I just had to send the ROM
file to Nick, a.k.a Suuperblaah to be like, dude, did I
accidentally download a bugged, like one that had
boosted odds by accident? He looked at the stuff. He says, no it's full odds, which I don't understand. I have never gotten this
many full odds shinies in this short amount of time in my life, so I guess I'm gonna try to catch this. Oh, all right, well now the shiny's dead. (Michael laughs) This would be upsetting if I didn't already
catch one earlier today. So in summation, I got three
full one in 8,000 odds shinies before even having six gym badges. I have never ever gotten
more than one shiny before beating the league, and most of those ones that I got were later gen one in 4,000 odds shinies, so the ones that are
more likely to show up. I have never ever been this
lucky in a playthrough. And to any of you that think I might've
cheated these shinies in, why would I cheat in shinies for the most annoying cave Pokemon? One of them being one
that could blow itself up and then do the blowing
up one a second time. After that chaos, I finally took on the
sixth gym leader, Byron. My plan was to Swords
Dance sweep with Gallant. I set up the Swords Dance, but then of course the
Magneton paralyzed Gallant on the one turn where
it had the chance to. Gallant was able to take Magneton down, but it being low health
and slower than Steelix, allowed said Steelix to KO Gallant, ending my Swords Dance sweep hopes. I brought in Korg who Earthquaked, lived a Flash Cannon, and Earthquaked again to KO Steelix. Finally, it was Bastiodon
which Korg defeated in one hit. The badge was mine. Next I had to battle Saturn
at the exploded Lake Valor. This battle was uneventful, and Korg dealt with his
team relatively easily. Next was the battle with
Mars at Lake Verity, and this was also mostly uneventful. Gallant swept through her
team with little issue. I then began my journey
to the great white north and caught a few Sneasels in the process. I really wanted Weavile on my team since not only is it really
fast and really strong, but also its stab combination
of dark and ice would help out with a lot of the upcoming battles, like many members of Cyrus's team, Bertha's team, Lucian's team,
and half of Cynthia's team including her toughest
members Garchomp and Togekiss. Unfortunately after catching
a few Sneasels I realized that I wouldn't be able
to use one quite yet. The soonest Razor Claw is a hidden item in Cyrus's office in the Galactic Hideout, but even then I could
not train up my Sneasel just as a Sneasel. That's because Weavile and
only Weavile learns Night Slash at level 35, meaning if I trained
a Sneasel up past that I would miss Night Slash. Therefore I made the call
to postpone using Weavile until I had the Razor Claw in hand, and then catch a Sneasel
that was level 33 or 34 to make absolutely sure that my Weavile would learn Night Slash. It was then time to take on
Candice, the seventh gym leader. While James handled Sneasel
and Piloswine easily, Abomasnow couldn't be KO'd in one hit, allowing it to get big
damage with Focus Blast. James got the KO, but then came Froslass. Since I wanted to try and feel cool by not using any potions,
I let James go down, figuring that my other four Pokemon could easily handle Froslass. This was a mistake! I made the severe oversight that the entire rest of my team was weak to Froslass's two stab
types, ghost and ice, which allowed it to
sweep through all of them and lose me the battle. Can I get a hail... No. I just want to say, if I had had Sneasel I
would have been fine, but no, there's gotta be this
weird stupid move set thing where only Weavile gets
Night Slash at level 35 and Sneasel doesn't. Also only Sneasel gets
Ice Shard at level 49? Weavile doesn't? Which means it's impossible
to have a Weavile with both Night Slash
and Ice Shard in Platinum without using a Heart Scale which is stupid and
ridiculous and I hate it! My apologies. Clearly this very difficult
challenge was chipping away at part of my sanity. But I was not about to give in. I immediately challenged Candice again, leading with Gallant to
preserve James for Froslass. Gallant dealt with Sneasel easily, and then I brought in
James to fight Froslass. While it was much easier this time due to it not getting the Snow
Cloak boost due to no Hail, it still took several turns to take it down due to Double Team. Eventually though James was able to do it and take down the ice demon woman thing. James then took down Piloswine, then did big damage to Abomasnow before falling to Focus Blast and Hail. Gallant came back in to finish it off, and the badge was mine. This time hail yeah! After battling my way
through the Galactic Hideout, I had my second chance to face Cyrus. Gallant easily took down Sneasel while Korg took down Crobat. Honchkrow confused Korg, and
I got unlucky with self hits, so I swapped to James who's recently taught Ice
Beam took down Honchkrow. I then grabbed the hidden Razor Claw and dispatched Saturn with ease. It was then time for me to get my Weavile. I caught several more Sneasels since the first few I
caught weren't good enough, and once I found this Adamant
one, I was very pleased. I named it Devios to make
the word devious sound like a cool Roman name. A short while later I
evolved it into Weavile and taught it Ice Punch at the
move tutor west of Pastoria. After a bit of training, I made my way up to Mount
Coronet to Spear Pillar, having left Tether in the box
due to needing an HM mule. At the top NotSubd and I
took down Mars and Jupiter without a single one
of our Pokemon fainting or switching out. Swords Dance, (kisses) beautiful move. Can't believe I never used
boosting moves as a child. Also, it was really
nice to have Brick Break up against the two Bronzors which just kept trying to
use Reflect and Light Screen, and I just break them every time. After navigating my way through the "let's flex about the weird stuff "and cool graphics we
can do on a DS" world, it was time for the infamously
difficult battle with Cyrus. One of the battles that
makes this challenge so insanely tough to complete. James took down Hound
Doom after taking a hit. Then came Gyarados, in my
opinion his toughest Pokemon. I left in my special attacking
James to eat the Intimidate. I then switched to Ambush to
avoid the incoming Earthquake. Both of our attacks were three hit KOs, and since Ambush was faster
that meant I had the upper hand. Unfortunately my second
Fly missed, so Ambush fell. I brought in Devios to outspeed
and finish off the Gyarados, but Cyrus healed. Ice Punch landed and
froze Gyarados though, which was incredible! And it forced him to
switch to his own Weavile. I swapped to Gallant to
deal with the Weavile. Devios came back in to
deal with Honchkrow, and then he brought back in the Dos-sicle, and I brought in Gallant
to set up Swords Dance after the Intimidate. This allowed Gallant to finish it off, and then finally was his Crobat which I defeated with a
couple Rock Slides from Korg. Next was Giratina, and I simply threw the Master Ball at it. I didn't intend to use Giratina on my team since I'd grown quite attached to the team of six that I already had, plus I didn't need the
Master Ball for another shiny 'cause if I found another
shiny in this run, I did not deserve to catch it. The next event of note
was the final gym battle against Volkner. While Korg was able to
handle Jolteon no problem, a critical hit Focus Blast
from Raichu OHKO'd it, meaning my one ground type was down after only KOing one Pokemon
in the electric type battle. There may have been
some obscenities yelled. I'm telling you, it's a tough challenge. I brought in Tether, but
Raichu's Signal Beam did too much and Grass Knot did too little. I brought in Gallant
whose high special defense tanked Raichu's attacks very well. I set up Swords Dance
and took down Raichu. In came Electivire who outsped Gallant, but Gallant the legend lived with one HP and OHKO'd Electivire right back. This allowed me to heal against Luxray, then OHKO it right afterward,
winning me the battle. Gallant the Gallade and his dancing swords
were really saving my butt. I got through the Victory
Road with some faints but nothing super dire, then had my final battle
with NotSubd at the league. Staraptor's Close Combat did
a ton of damage to James, but it insured my next
Ice Beam would OHKO. Then Devios easily OHKO'd Torterra, Ambush easily OHKO'd Heracross, and Tether easily two hit KO'd Floatzel. Korg then Quick Claw outsped
Rapidash and OHKO'd it. Then Gallant finished the
battle by taking down Snorlax. That means every team member got a KO, so, you know, that's fun. I then spent some time grinding up my team and improving their move sets, but once I was done with that, it was time for the final stretch of this incredibly difficult challenge, the Sinnoh Pokemon League. First was Aaron, and this
battle went smoothly. Ambush took down Yanmega,
Heracross, and Vespiquen, while Korg took out Drapion, and Gallant took out Scizor. Next was Bertha, and this
battle also went smoothly. While Devios took out Gliscor, Tether handled the rest of her team, mainly using super powerful Grass Knots due to how heavy most of her Pokemon are. Next was Flint though, the Elite Four member that I
was the most concerned about. All of his Pokemon are definitely
faster than Korg the Golem and could definitely OHKO
it with a Solar Beam, and James' water moves
would be nerfed by the sun. James also does not resist fire and a lot of Flint's
Pokemon had coverage for it. I wasn't sure if Korg and James, my two Pokemon whose stab
attacks were super effective against fire, would be able to beat Flint. So, I just swept with Gallant. Since I knew his Houndoom
didn't have Will-o-Wisp, I was free to set up
Swords Dance on turn one while it set up the sun. Gallant then obliterated
Houndoom then Rapidash. Infernape came in and outsped, doing big sun boosted
damage with Flare Blitz, but Gallant held on, answering with a devastating Psycho Cut. Then all Gallant had to do was outspeed and OHKO Flareon and
Magmortar to win me the battle in a very fun way. The final Elite Four member was Lucian. Right off the bat Devios
took down Mr. Mime. He immediately brought in
Gallade, and I brought in Ambush. This was dangerous since
Ambush is weak to psychic, but thankfully Ambush was faster, landed it's fly, and
KO'd the Gallade with it. Devios then handled Espeon and Alakazam, while Gallant used Swords
Dance to OHKO the Bronzong since I had no fire moves. Then finally it was time
for the Cynthia battle, the toughest battle of the toughest playthrough
challenge I've ever done. Victory was so close I could taste it, but I still had to defeat her. James took on Spiritomb first since he resisted all of its attacks. It took some hits and healing on her part, but eventually James took it down. Next was Garchomp, and
thankfully Devios did its job, outspeeding and knocking
it out in one hit. Next was Lucario who Gallant
close combated into oblivion. Next was the dreaded Togekiss,
which Devios Ice Punched. This thing had to have
lived on literally one HP and that allowed it to fire back with a four times super
effective Aura Sphere. I brought in Korg on the turn she healed and risked an inaccurate but
very powerful Stone Edge, and this stupid Togekiss
barely survived again. The next turn I clicked Rock
Slide, certain I was doomed, but Korg barely held on
from the Aura Sphere, landing it's Rock Slide
and taking Togekiss down. Ambush then easily handled Roserade, and finally Tether landed
a critical hit Grass Knot on Milotic, winning me the battle. With this glorious team that really needs to work on
their Mike Wazowski posing, I completed the toughest
playthrough challenge I've ever attempted, Gallant the Gallade
was absolutely the MVP. The amount of time Swords
Dance either saved my butt from a sticky situation or
just won me the battle outright was many and it was so fun. Thanks so much for watching and an extra special thanks
