When you told me you could click the X on the Pokédex and it gives you rewards, I hadn’t done that ever and didn’t know it existed. I sat there for like 5 minutes racking in rewards I didn’t know I had. 😂 THANK YOU

[plantmama]

I've been playing Pokemon games for literally all my life and I've already finished the main story of Scarlet, but still watched this video from start to finish just to support the channel ❤️

My tip would be to deviate from the path as much as possible a lot of poke balls have exp candy specially at the top of the map which allows you to change your team and level up constantly

[zachbattles]

The button to lock the big map to true north is seriously life-changing and makes navigation infinitely easier.

Also, I just started an alternate run of the game now that I know what I'm doing and I discovered that you can get nearly 30 different species of Pokémon before you even step foot in the school for the first time! Crazy fun reward for exploring. I also ran into a shiny tarountula on a tree right after the catch-demo, so I was obligated to continue that run. He looked like a Christmas ornament (big red ball) 😆

Thanks for the video and for sharing your fun and positive attitude!

I'm so happy to see more love for sandwiches and picnics! I know it isn't "optimal" to do this a lot, but it just makes the game so much more fun and personal. I like getting to relax and see my Pokemon being more like cute pets, that's a big part of the appeal for me, personally.

Says go to class.... Hasn't gone to any of the classes on screen 🤣

[DMGamanda]

I have to be honest most of the video was really great but a couple of times as a brand new pokemon player i had zero idea what you meant by certain terms such as over world, dittos etc just as eg. But generally as i said was super helpful and really grateful as always for all your hard work on these videos ❤

[stmk]

I got so caught up exploring the different areas I forgot about the stories for a bit 🤣 I prioritized getting myself the fly points set so that when I inevitably got lost I’d be able to get back to where I started

Also OBSESSED with the book feature 😍

I'm a newly ordained Champion, and I realized many wild Pokemon can be categorized by behavior and habitat. This led me to realize there are ideal Pokemon to counter for TM material hunting:

Terrestrial; Skittish:

This group includes herd Pokemon like Skiddo, Stantler, and the Ampharos line, valuable for obtaining Mareep Wool for Charge Beam, a great TM for Kilowattrel. I personally use Dusk Lycanroc for its natural agility and good staying power.

Terrestrial; Steadfast:

Counting icons like Growlithe, Raichu, and the Hariyama line among its ranks, these mons stay put to assess their opponent. Dusk Lycanroc, Kilowattrel, Floatzel, and Meowscarada are my picks, but it depends on the situation. It also includes Shinx and its evolutions, necessary for obtaining Thunder Fang TMs.

Terrestrial; Aggressive:

These mons are the "hit first, ask later" type. Especially troublesome are the herds of wild Paldean Tauros numbering 5 or more, valuable for obtaining Giga Impact TMs. There's two options: send in a decoy and get away on Koraidon/Miradon, or carefully sneak behind and take them out with a surprise attack. Dusk Lycanroc excels in both roles, but any well trained Pokemon will do.

Semiaquatic:
The Golduck, Azumarill, and Floatzel lines form the core of this group, often taking to the water to evade attackers. Psyduck Down is from this set, necessary for Psybeam TMs. A well trained Flying or Water type is the best choice, with Floatzel and Kilowattrel being my aces.

Aquatic; Skittish:

Although I've only seen Dratini and Dragonair exhibit this behavior, Water types excel in the oceans of Paldea, so Floatzel is a solid choice.

Aquatic; Aggressive:

Pokemon such as Basculin and Veluza fall under this designation. Floatzel and Kilowattrel are the stars here, but mons like Bombirdier can have a good time as well.

Avian:

Many Flying types fall under this, taking to the air to become invulnerable for a short time, including Murkrow which drop material for Snarl. The best option is to run them down with a Pokemon like Dusk Lycanroc before they start flying.

This isn't an exhaustive list, but a general guide. Feel free to add onto this and make corrections.

This is my first time playing pokemon, and I'm so grateful for your videos- Thank you!!

[StephsTooDef]

Thanks for the shiny info. Catching shiny’s has always been an issue for me. I’m excited to attempt to fill out the Pokédex…love the presentation of it this time around.

[onikakathleencastillo]

i was looking thru the videos that popped up when i searched for gameplay tips n i was so sad bc they werent a cool colored hair gal like myself and then i found you!! yay!!! 💗💗 thank you so much!! this game has been a mind boggle for me, i havent even finished arceus and i started on lets go eevee :O

[TodayTamaraForever]

I have been absolutely loving this game! My only disappointment was the concept of the "shinies". After coming from something so extravagantly obvious, like on Ooblets, I was sad to know the shinies in Pokemon Violet..aren't glittering at all (aside from the icon listed on the Boxes entry if you catch one). I am fairly new to the franchise and it's a bummer to know that I may have encountered a shiny all along and just not have known it, because I'm not familiar with the characters. Other than that, I love the game and it kinda makes me want to play some of the others to see what they are about and how the franchise has changed. This one is definitely different than Arceus (which is my only point of reference for Pokemon). So happy you made this video! Super helpful and always entertaining.

[TheSushiandme]

i ordered both of the game on sunday. i hope they arrive soon. it's been 2 years since i've touched the switch. so excited

[Deoxys]

This video is going to be very useful to my friend who is playing Pokémon for his first time

[Moneypanda]

I thought the Mystical herb story was going to be boring, only did it to upgrade the ride Pokémon. After getting the 2nd herb… FULL STOP. I prioritized EVERYTHING to furthering that line of the story. I haven’t cried about the story in a Pokémon game in years. Dammit Pokémon.

[trashketchum]

for what it’s worth, beating the star bases do give you a new set of TMs to craft

[angiekuron]

Thank you so much ❤ this video was so helpful. I’ve only ever played Legends Arceus so when I started playing Pokémon Scarlet I was completely lost cause Arceus is so different. Love your content by the way. Your my favorite cozy game streamer. Happy Holidays

[nathanielLEGACY]

Great starter guide I jumped in not knowing anything and this game is a lot of fun. Never played a Pokémon game till now and I’ve been gaming since before Pokémon existed. Love your hair btw! Subbed and a 👍🏻👍🏻

[TheRN]

I'm brand new to pokemon. I'm clueless to eggs, picnics, food, etc. I know how to catch and battle. Please help.
