Unown is actually an amazing Pokemon for a solo run, at least in Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal. Don't believe me, just watch the video!

    "Alright Unown, we're going to solo through Crystal today!" Unown: "K"

    As a child I was obsessed with the unknown ruins. Always thought I was missing something big. But turns out that it wasn't completed as fully as they initially planned.

    JRose11 was spoiled last video with having a choice between Tackle and String Shot, so he cut his moveset in half.
  • @DFPWeaponX
    Love that he plays so much gen 1 where typically Agatha is the biggest challenge that he refers to Karen as Agatha lol
  • @pwl66925
    FYI for future Johto challenges, you can get a gold berry by placing third in the bug catching contest

    "Reset for a favourable Agatha fight." The PTSD is real.
  • @JoeKell365
    Unown should have had Ancient Power to pair with Hidden Power. i don't think it would be overpowered with it
  • @ivanbluecool
    Unknown so good it had to be removed from the entire game later on. Clearly it's stronger than arcues Mewtwo and fans love of Charizard combined
  • @rickyi3523
    The Gen 2 videos are always the most surprising ones to me. Sometimes they're expectedly difficult like the Pichu video, but other times Pokemon I would expect to really struggle or be impossible end up being weirdly good like Togepi and Unown.
  • @danielhale1
    Dude, the volume of videos you're putting out is insane! I hope you're treating yourself well. I love your work, and as long as you're having a great time, I'm all for this pace.
  • @jordanar18
    Fun fact: It can also learn Hidden Power via TM. Except it can’t, since it will always know Hidden Power only already. So the TM will never work on it.
  • Fun fact due to gen 2 programming being gen 1 programming with a few more bandage on top of it struggle is effected by pink bow
  • @Reedonkulouz
    He called Karen, Agatha lol. That's how you know you play too much Gen 1 😂😂😂 love to see some JROSE runs definitely love them. Great work with the run 🤙
  • @NathanCotrill
    They should have brought Unown to SV and made hidden power only learned by Unown, and does 70 power and is affected by your tera type if you haven't terastalized.
  • @lilith_fox
    The moment you said you were going for Psychic hidden power my heart sank. Hopefully the Rival's sneasel and Karen weren't too tedious to defeat but only one way to find out
  • @PlagueOfWasps
    I spent uncounted hours in the ruins as a kid trying to figure out if there was some hidden secret to these guys. I caught every letter and even tried to use a team of four unown that spelled DOOM to see if it would trigger some instant win, since the Pokédex entry in silver referred to something similar.
  • @Gungho73
    I quit my job to focus on therapy today. I've been in a very dark corner lately in my life. These videos you put out are often the difference for me. I know a lot of people won't convey this thought and some may even chastise me for saying it out loud. But your videos make a genuine difference in my life by giving me a breather from all thats been going on. I really appreciate you and your editor for what they do. Thank you Jrose11, sincerely. Happy holidays.

    Last year we got the month of Jrose, this year we get some of the more difficult solo runs ever conceived. We are truly blessed.
