Part 25 of Colo: A second visit to the Under Colosseum then back to Mt. Battle for Area 8

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

Part 26 of Colo: This part is kind of similar to the last part, a third visit to the Under Colosseum and then Area 9 of Mt. Battle. Part 27 will be back at Realgam Tower though.

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

Part 27 of Colo and finally the beginning of the final showdown with Cipher, but first a reunion with the old Team Boss.

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

Part 28 of Colo, things have got Real-gam all of a sudden, the final battle atop the tower awaits, will Cipher fall?

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

Part 29 of Colo, a new pokemon joins the team.

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

Part 30 of Colo, the search for Shadow Bayleef leads to the ruins of Team Snagem's Headquarters.

 

[Rainbow Cloud]

It's been quite a while since I updated this, I recorded part 31 and the upcoming part 32 back in September but haven't had much opportunity to record since and kept putting off editing and uploading the parts I had. Hoping to get back to recording new parts and finishing this soon.

Part 31 of Colosseum.

if you have the time, you could do a playthrough on pokemon XD. I have heard it is a cool game.

Yeah, I've been thinking about doing a playthrough of XD after finishing Colosseum, I have the game so could do a playthrough of it. It's just time holding me back at the moment, been struggling with time to record in the last few months, if things improve though and I finish Colosseum I probably will look at doing an XD playthrough.

 

[KabutopsStudys]

ok.

Here's Part 32 of Colo, Showdown at the Snagem Hideout.

I love Meditite's head movement.
UdderChaos lying on her side and then rolling to use Body Slam is just hilarious.
I like that you called them out for their overreliance on Hyper Beam.
When Machamp knocked out UdderChaos - Yeah well... you fainted first, so... means nothing.
Poor Suicune having to be a sacrificial lamb. It had to be done.
My attitude - You wouldn't be eviscerating everything with Hyper Beam if this were post-Gen III.
I really like your Gonzap voice!!
"Gonzap's Pokémon were a bit too higher level." I agree. Can you even level grind anywhere in this game??
Handy mysterious healing is great.
Sorry but WTF is Jigglypuff's fainting animation all about?? Well I guess it is a balloon...
Milk Drink FTW!!
That Double Slap is so dramatic!!
"I knew you were gonna go into Hyper Mode again. I just knew it!" I liked that.

Yeah Miltank's animations are great, like the one for Milk Drink too

I really like your Gonzap voice!!

Thanks, was kind of going for a pirate type voice for Gonzap

"Gonzap's Pokémon were a bit too higher level." I agree. Can you even level grind anywhere in this game??

There's the Colosseum tournaments and Mt Battle areas which can be repeated and you can re-battle some of the trainers in the various locations but it's quite hard to level up quickly in the game. The levels of the trainers pokemon do increase as you progress through the game which helps a bit though.

Handy mysterious healing is great.

Yeah, thought I was in a pretty bad situation when that Cipher Peon ambushed me after the Gonzap battle

That Double Slap is so dramatic!!

Yeah, felt sorry for The Light when she was taking those double slaps, Ampahros's damage animation looks quite drastic.

"I knew you were gonna go into Hyper Mode again. I just knew it!" I liked that.

I'm convinced Hyper Mode becomes more likely the closer you are to purification like the game's trolling you at times

I love Battle Revolution! Such a nostalgic game for me. How did you do the recordings? You mentioned the first few were done on VHS, and I don't know how to do VHS recordings (my mom has a lot of VHS recordings, though, so maybe I'm just out of the loop).

Awesome, really liked Battle Revolution too, it was fun being able to do Gen 4 battles in 3D and the different battle styles at the colosseums in the offline game

At the time I used a TV Card on a on old Desktop PC and the recording software for it to capture the videos. The TV cards were designed to let you watch analogue TV on your PC but they also had an AV input you could use to input video from other devices. Recorded similarly on a VHS player by connecting the Wii's AV cable to the VHS player's AV input and selecting that as the channel to record from, though I then had to record from the VHS tape to the PC using the method above. I first started off using this method as the VHS player was always next to my TV and the Wii and was convenient but I later moved to recording direct from the Wii to the PC as the quality was better without first recording to tape and it saved time avoiding that step.

More recently I used the old PC and the TV card to record the first 7 parts of Colosseum too but am now using a newer capture device that works with my current laptop to capture video.

I've been thinking of revising my old Battle Revolution save file at some point and doing some battles with these teams again, can't do online battling anymore but can re-battle the colosseums in the offline game.

Ohhh that makes sense. I've always wanted to know how to record a TV screen. Thank you!

Still working on Colo but decided to revisit my old Pokemon Battle Revolution save file and try out some colosseum battles with my old teams

"The mood in the colosseum has become somewhat unsettling."
"The situation is a bit of a stalemate!" ... How??
'You really like Worry Seed, don't you?'
Lol at the Pikachu Fan trainer class. The hat and facepaint together are hilarious.
The Shuca Berry does nothing!
Swampert recovering after taking damage is cute.
Hypno, you don't have to get so close!! Confronting!!
Love how the commentator's getting low-key frustrated when no one's doing an offensive move.
Aww, the Colosseum Leader didn't use her signature 'mon!

Always find the commentary amusing in this game

'You really like Worry Seed, don't you?'

I regret not saying at the time "There's no need to worry" in response to the Worry Seeds

Lol at the Pikachu Fan trainer class. The hat and facepaint together are hilarious.

Yeah, the fun part of the game is you can use those customisations on your own trainer too, at some point in the future I'll use my Pikachu Fan Trainer Pass team

The Shuca Berry does nothing!

Swampert recovering after taking damage is cute.

Swampert's awesome, always been one of my favourite pokemon and have so many great memories of battling with this Swampert, Shuca Berry or not Raichu's going down. Going to have to transfer him to my Shield game, think he's currently in Alola on my Moon game

Hypno, you don't have to get so close!! Confronting!!

Yeah, Hypno was a bit creepy there

Love how the commentator's getting low-key frustrated when no one's doing an offensive move.

Indeed, my thoughts at the time were, I didn't spam Double Team

Aww, the Colosseum Leader didn't use her signature 'mon!

Yeah, would have like to have seen Pachirisu, it's one of my favourite Pika clones.
