The reason the AI looks like it always gets double protect against Winona is because of a quirk with the way the AI selects moves. Essentially it will roll the move before selecting it, so if protect fails it just won't use it, this is the same reason why the AI sometimes doesn't use moves that should OHKO because they hit a very unlikely range. There's still a 50% chance protect will fail, but Winona just won't use select the move if the roll fails.

Would have been useful if Smeargle has Splash.

Hearing Smeargle and Emerald brings back a heart-breaking memory from when I was kid where I accidentally knocked out a shiny Smeargle in Emerald. The only difference between regular and shiny Smeargle is the color on the tip of the tail. I was playing while watching TV and it came on screen while I wasn't looking, so I missed the sparkle animation. I select an attack, and as the HP bar drains to 0, I notice the tail. After it went down, I had a moment of denial where I start searching around hoping to find it again to no avail. I was pretty devastated that day.

My biggest problem with the month of Jrose is that it will eventually end! Love these videos

his narration is 💯👌

Amusing how Smeargle was basically a glorified Wingull in the early game, but without its STAB bonus. Sketch really made for interesting decisions as the game progressed.

The pokeball thing was such a big brain move lol. Glad that the month of Jrose is going strong!

I've been watching too many of your Gen 1 runs, because I kept getting nervous that your Smeargle would crit and not use the boosts of all those calm minds.

This was a LOT easier than I would've expected. Smeargle has pretty bad stats, but damn is sketch extremely versatile. Also, fella even battled Steven and that's dedication. Continue the great work, Jrose

Impeccable timing literally just came on to see if it was there and here it is! Another impossible challenge for us to sink our teeth into! Month of Jrose has been incredible so far!

I think a Double-Battle/Solo Run of two Smeargles would be worth watching

I am absolutely loving the month of Jrose. There's nothing better after working a night shift than coming home and watching one of your vids to go to sleep. Thanks man!

From the title and length alone, I can tell this is going to be one of those runs

This man deserves an award, a firm pat on the back, a hearty handshake. A parade should be help for this man. Thank you JRose! You the realest

I can’t imagine not knowing about EVs with all the resources available online, yet I know that every single time they’re mentioned in anybody’s video thousands of people learn something.

"And today I'm going to slam my head into THIS brick wall for your entertainment!"

I use to adore Smeargle for the sheer fact that I couldnt consider so many possible combinations of move sets. Although, I'd have to have multiple smeargle, but it was cool.

Smeargle's sketches in this run: 1: Water Gun 11: Wing Attack 21: Hi Jump Kick 31: Magnitude 41: Sleep Powder (Replaces Water Gun) 51: Crunch (Replaces Wing Attack) 61: Ancient Power (Replaces Magnitude) 71: Surf (Replaces Ancient Power) 81: Thunderbolt (Replaces Surf) 91: Ice Beam (Replaces Crunch) After replanning: Calm Mind and Ice Beam (Replaces Hi Jump Kick and Crunch)

Interestingly, in Pokémon Colosseum, Smeargle learns Sketch, Tail Whip, Double Slap and Iron Tail

Awesome! It’ll be really fun to see the strategic decisionmaking that’ll have to go into crafting a moveset for smeargle! It’s really fun to explore the movesets out there in the game and see what’s possible.

Honestly, it's awful lol I've done a Smeargle solo in up to 3 generations and while it seems amazing that you can get so creative with various moves for every gym and encounter, the stats are just SO awful to deal with LOL! I mean, it's fun but just SO annoying hah

I did a run like this in crystal, but allowed myself to catch wild smeargles. Each had its own strategy, but my favorite 2 were the sleep build (spore, nightmare, dream eater, and agility) and the stunlock bulld (Stomp, Confuse ray, Attract, and Thunderwave.)

you were already my favorite pokemon youtuber but the community reference made me smile as big as the moon, loving the month of JRose and your content in general, keep it up!

I've been doing a 6 Smeargle run of Pokemon Black and I'm just gonna say your dedication here is amazing. I actually allowed myself to use non Smeargles as long as it isn't a trainer battle just to get Level-Up moves onto non Smeargles and Sketch them that way using Double Battle grass. Allows much more versatility and comes at the cost of the time investment of having to grind up other Pokemon.

Every time, every time somebody says Magnitude in a Pokemon game, I always say "Pop, Pop" in my head. And every time I just assume that nobody else would get it. Thank you Jrose for finally saying the thing.

Genuinely JRose December is making you my favourite KZread altogether as of late. So many high quality videos and your upload schedule fits perfectly with my mornings before work. Thank you man!

Yeah, usually when I see this challenge, they have a full team of Smeargle, not just one.

Smeargle is my favourite pokemon in the Sun and Moon games, because it is so easy to teach it any move fairly early, and it can have some really silly move sets. You can teach it Boomburst which is STAB 140 base power 100% accuracy 10 PP and no negative side effects (unless its a double battle). It also allows for infinite SOS chaining because you can teach it recycle and give it a leppa berry for infinite PP restoration, and a healing move for infinite health regen.

this was a creative and extremely entertaining challenge, thank you so much for the hard work you put into your content, i’m proud to say that i’ve been watching for a few years and you’ve only gotten better!

Regarding Pelipper never failing 2 Protects in a row, I think gen 3 has an AI quirk where the opponent sometimes calculates whether a move will succeed before it decides to use it. So on the turn after the first Protect it'll determine whether the next one will work, and if so it'll use it, otherwise it'll go for one of its other moves. Bit of survivorship bias there.

Your videos have been my go to for curing insomnia for years now. I sometimes watch older videos since I don't exactly watch them most of the time. Now that I get a new and exciting video to watch while sleeping every day I am super happy. You are the real deal man, much love

Smeargle runs are really fun, because you can use any move, so it's a lot about figuring out what are the best moves you can use. This video (just like all of your videos) was a joy to watch.

Hell yeah! I've been wanting a Smeargle solo run for so long!

Here's an idea, for future mandatory double battles, maybe you could clone your Pokémon for the second spot? So this way you're doing basically 2 single battles and it's all with the designated Pokémon?

Month of Jrose videos continue to be the highlight of my day, so glad I found your channel!

So this is ONE Impossible Challenge that DOES actually sweep the post-game battle with Steven in Emerald. It may have been quick, but still AWESOME that Smeargle can do Steven's battle AND the rest of the game. All in all, awesome run! Very happy to see this! =)

Ok so pretty much most of your runs id never have the patience time or foresight (planning ahead) to do... but this is such a cool run. Kinda mapping out which moves you wanna sketch and what not. Super unique. Very enjoyable to watch!

First off; love the content, pumping out so much content with so much quality is truly amazing. There is a way to check basic trainers move sets somewhat reliably using rom hack tools. I used a trainer editing software on PC to see them. However, there are some with no specific movesets coded in, and those are just basic level up moves.

Something about this challenge seems a bit... sketchy... In all seriousness, this is gonna be a fun, if tedious and kinda difficult, run from the look of it. I forget if Smeargle can relearn Sketch from the Move Reminder. If it can Jrose is in business, but if it remembers the move Sketch copied instead of Sketch... ooh boy. As for what solo run to do next in Kanto, I have an interesting question: Which Gen 1 Fire-type is worth using your Fire Stone on? You've done Eevee and Flareon, now how about Growlithe/Arcanine and Vulpix/Ninetales? As a massive Arcanine fan, I would like to know which is best. (Day 17 of asking)

Nice job with this Smeargle run, and thanks for at least showing the Steven Stone battle this time. Yeah, maybe not as epic as the Elite 4 and Champion, but I still like seeing that battle at least attempted to close out an Emerald challenge run.

Great video as always! Hope you have a good vacation planned for the end of this month.

Really enjoyed the video, don't mind the long run time at all! Smeargle is not one of my favorites but I have used it competitively like most others watching. I think the calm mind, bolt/beam strategy was really smart. Crunch and High Jump Kick were good for a while but what you won with is basically perfect coverage. I was really expecting you to sketch spore instead of sleep powder, but Shroomish doesn't learn it until level 54. Glad sleep powder at least hit sometimes when it needed to. Been enjoying every video, the month of JRose has been fun.

This was a lot of fun to watch. I really like how it was a big puzzle you had to solve.

I love the gen-III challenges!!! I’d love to see more in the future
