my back STILL hurts from carrying you through this challenge (* ^ ω ^)

wonderful vid smallant, keep it up

[PPedroFernandes]

Imagine him getting to the end after a grueling 1700+ attempts, and someone pointing out "hey, you forgot to talk to mom"

[Eden-kwkw]

28:51 The reason why he called tickle the “ultimate technique, ” is because on one of his really good runs, Blaine gave Smallant the TM for tickle and said, “Tickle is the ultimate technique!” or something like that.

32:10 "I am the most powerful trainer in the world" *sends out delibird*

[borkysingasong]

The fact that Lickitung survived on 1 hp in the lab fight so that Smant could find the Skarmory pivot

Fran walked so that Della could run

[quak]

I really appreciate what Lanturn contributed to this winning run, being the mon that "always died to Extrasensory", and also that it snuck its way onto the champion's team twice!!!

[nikhilanand]

Well actually Blaine's badge boost is the same as the original games because back then there was no separate Special stats. It's why psychic Pokémon were so broken

[thomast]

This video was edited perfectly. You really felt like seeing the entire stream instead of just hearing a story about it.
What especially hooked me was getting excited for the Gym TMs.

[asdfasdf-mniu]

It feels like this challenge is mostly "play often enough to get good enough RNG to carry you through" xD

[huegofarley]

"you have to talk to mom, i dont know why this is a rule"
CAUSE WE DONT WANT TO BE RUDE SMANT!

[Vearru]

30:30

“Let’s hope it’s a bunch of weak garbage, 6 Gyarados, please”

That must be a brand new sentence.

[noinfo]

From somebody who’s watched kaizo ironmon since it came out, massive respect. This challenge is much harder than people seem to think

[cdstars]

25:10 "Volt Tackle?! is the most cartoonish reaction i may have ever heard from smallant

[tls]

For anyone that's not acquainted with the average FR Ironmon run, getting 800% of heals or 14 items is something that some people failed to get in thousands of runs. This kind of luck is insane. On top of that, it looked like PP maxes and status healing items were raining in this run. White herbs as well. Something that you'd struggle to get in thousands runs he accomplished in 2k. No mirror coat, destiny bond or perish trap users either. He could win the lottery with this luck.
No pop off at the end is freaky man, this dude is a cyborg

[incrediblecoockie]

14:08 there is just a Deoxys chilling in the safari habitat XD

[nuqi]

I see now, the true strength of smallant... DELIBIRD.

[inhthinh]

I remember that last Lantern also have Perish song, and he used healing item on that turn facing it. It was so lucky, if that Lantern have used Perish song, he would only has 3 turn left to shut down Magnetric which would have killed the run at the last moment.

Couple of clarifications for anyone wondering:
- Step-based items actually appear a few places in the overworld in addition to Mt. Moon. The QOL patch gets rid of them but, at the request of the challenge creator, the ones in Mt. Moon are kept because there's actually risk involved in getting them to spawn
- The "second Pokemon is the strongest" isn't exactly true. Trainers will usually send out a mon with a super-effective move if they have one, which is why the second mon in a fight is often the most dangerous
- For anyone confused why he went to Lavender Tower right away after Rock Tunnel, the rules require you to go there and fight the Rival. This is also an exception to the "enter each dungeon once" rule.

33:05 "volt absorb? You're a genius" that literally made my day HAHSHAHS

[adamschneider]

He passed the first “road brock”. Oh smant these are so good
