 I bet you wouldn't believe that this Pokémon on the left is more rare than this Pokémon on the right. Why? Well, the Pokémon on the left does not come from this game. In fact, it comes from the Game Boy, but that is not enough just to know about it. The data for this is actually shown in the game and in Pokémon Home with something known as an Origin Mark. The Origin Mark for a Pokémon from the Game Boy looks like, well, a Game Boy. Luckily for us, Nintendo has provided a way for us to get Game Boy Pokémon without having to do anything hacky. The 3DS. There are a total six Game Boy Virtual Console games on the 3DS. Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver and Crystal. The goal of this video is to show you how to catch 28 Pokémon in the Game Boy that have the Game Boy Origin Mark and evolve them into Pokémon that were never meant to have this mark, making them a lot more rare. Here's what you need if you want to follow along. A 3DS, Pokémon Crystal and Pokémon Gold, but you can use any other Virtual Console game if the Pokémon is in a Poké Transporter, Pokémon Bank, Pokémon Sun and Moon or any Ultra version of this game. A Nintendo Switch with Pokémon Home on it and some compatible Switch games that you can evolve these Pokémon on. I'm using Brilliant Diamond, you can use Pokémon Scarlet or Violet, Pokémon Legends Arceus and Pokémon Sword or Shield. I started up this project by booting up the livestream and started Pokémon Crystal from scratch. And then I realized how slow the Game Boy games are and kind of made me appreciate how far we've come in Pokémon. I started the game with Cinequil which is pretty easy since it's literally a starter Pokémon. After I progressed enough where I could reach a PC in the game, I then deposited it inside of the PC. Please be aware that when you are depositing Pokémon into a PC that they need to be in Box 1. Once they are in Box 1, you then have to save your game, close your game and open up Poké Transporter. Once you are in Poké Transporter, you then have to move the Pokémon from Box 1 into your Pokémon Bank. Once you've sent it to Pokémon Bank, you then want to boot up your Nintendo Switch and open up Pokémon Home. You then have to turn on the 3DS Transfer, get a code and then send over the Bank Pokémon to Pokémon Home. I hope I didn't lose you there. Once Cinequil was safe and sound in Pokémon Home, I sent it over to Pokémon Legends Arceus. Once it was in the game, all I had to do was a little leveling up, just like how you should level up by hitting that subscribe button so we could hit 1 million subscribers. And while you're at it, also hit that like button so I could make more videos about rare Pokémon like this. After evolving Cinequil into Quilava, I was finally able to evolve it into a Hissui and Typhlosion. But this one was special because it came from Jodo and has the Game Boy Origin mark on it that is always going to show up in the game and in Pokémon Home. But I made a huge mistake. Doing one Pokémon at a time is not very efficient so we're going to go in the old Virtual Console games, grab all of them and then begin the process. Let's go! The best way to catch all these Pokémon is by finishing the game and having access to all the areas. That way when you go back to the games, it'll be a lot easier to catch any Pokémon you may need. This is why I'm using Pokémon Crystal for this one since it has 26 out of the 28 Pokémon we are hunting. Also, it doesn't matter what Pokéballs you use in this game to catch the Pokémon because they all get turned into Pokéballs at the end when you transfer them. Which sucks because I actually use specific Apricorn Balls to catch certain Pokémon just to try to match them. First up is Pikachu. I headed to Route 2. This one has a 5% rarity to catch it. As soon as it showed up, I used a fastball to catch it. Level 4, Female Pikachu acquired. By the way, Alolan Raichu has no gender differences so it doesn't matter if you catch a male or female Pikachu. Next I headed to Saffron City and then to Route 6. As soon as I ran into the grass, I bumped into a Radicate and right after that I bumped into a Level 14 Magnemite and caught it in a Heavy Ball. This thing is going to eventually evolve into a Magnisone. I needed a Cubone next because I needed to evolve it into the Alolan Marowak, one of the first variant evolutions of old Pokémon introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. So I went to Route 10 and into the rock tunnel and it was completely pitch black. I didn't bother to bring a Pokémon at Flash since I just needed to get encounters here. And as I was trying to catch it, the wild Cubone actually fled. I wasn't expecting that. I tried again to re-encounter one and then I was finally able to catch that one in an Ultra Ball. Capturing Electabuzz was a little complicated. I had to bike to the West of Cerulean City reaching Route 9 and then proceeded to surf towards Route 10. In a hidden grassy area, I then came across a Level 18 Electabuzz in this little secret spot. I threw a lot of Pokéballs at it, but didn't really succeed at first. However, after a few more attempts, I successfully captured the Electabuzz using a Fastball. Mission accomplished. Next on my list was Tangla. Locating Tangla wasn't too difficult. I surfed from Pallet Town to Route 21. As you see here, the first Pokémon encountered in this grass patch was a Mr. Mine, absolutely a cursed Pokémon. But soon after, I stumbled upon a Tangla. I wanted to catch it, but it got away. I boned it to another Tangla and this time I knew I had to catch it. It was a close call, but I finally managed to capture the Level 30 Male Tangla using a Grape Ball. Grape Ball was used because it's red and blue like Tangla. Get it? And again, no point because it turns into a Pokéball anyway. The next spot I went to was Victory Road. As soon as I got there, I immediately encountered a Level 32 Male Rihorn. This thing did a lot of damage with its attacks, but I managed to capture it using a Heavy Ball. I think the problem I was having was trying to catch this Pokémon without putting status effects on them or bringing them down to one HP because that felt like too much work, but you should probably do that because it's more efficient. Porygon was on my radar because it has a third evolution, Porygon Z that's not available on the Game Boy. You can't catch this Pokémon by the way, so how do you obtain it? Well, you head to the Game Corner in Celadon City right over here. It wasn't handed to me for free because you have to spend 5,555 coins to claim the prize. But guess what? It was absolutely worth it. Here's the amazing Level 15 Porygon from the Game Boy. Now let's go back to finding wild Pokémon. It's time to find Yanma. I went north from Golden Rod City, navigating through the area until I reached Route 35. I dodged multiple trainers to head to the grassy area. I came across Jigglypuff, Abra, Drowsy, and a bunch of repeating Pokémon here. The search took a couple of hours, but I eventually encountered a Level 12 Email Yanma and caught it with a Friend Ball. Next up was Koffing. I made my way to the Burn Tower in Yucatric City where Koffing appeared. Pretty convenient place to put Koffing, where everyone is coughing because of the burned edit. Okay, I caught this Koffing using an Ultra Ball. It's gonna be evolving into a very fancy Pokémon in Sword and Shield. Look at this distinguished gentleman. Look at the way he is sitting. Yeah, it's very distinguished. I went south of Yucatric City and bumped into a wild Stantler. Capturing the Level 14 Mail Stantler was pretty easy with an Ultra Ball. This Stantler had no idea it was also gonna be getting a very cool evolution in Pokémon Legends Arceus. The next Pokémon is quite unique. It can only be caught during the Bug Catching Contest held every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at the National Park. Luckily for me, it was Tuesday in the game when I was playing. By the way, you can also do date skipping so you don't actually have to wait for the day. Time to catch our next Pokémon, Scyther. You have 20 minutes to complete the contest. Let's get started. I ventured into all the grassy areas and came across a Venonet, then a Paris, but neither was the target. Moving forward, I encountered a Cocuna, still not the Pokémon I saw it, and after encountering various wild Pokémon, I finally stumbled upon my target, Scyther. Heck yeah, I used my Park Ball to catch a level 13 Fimo Scyther. I then returned to the Manning Green so the contestants could be judged and the winner announced. Sadly, I didn't secure first place in the contest, but little did they know I had first place in my heart for the most rare Pokémon Award for Scyther because it was gonna be getting an evolution that nobody heard about in this game. I journeyed west of Violet City, passing through the area on Route 31 and entered the Dark Cave. I went back and forth attempting to encounter the Pokémon Teddy Ursa that had a 10% encounter rate. I just kept getting Geodudes and Zubats showing up one after the other, which is really annoying because that's all that shows up in a cave. And then after a really long time, I finally came across the Level 2 Fimo Teddy Ursa and I caught that one using a heavy ball, but we're not finished yet. It was another challenging task. Can you guess the Pokémon next? That's right, it's Dunsparse, and this one has a 1% encounter chance to show up in front of you. I questioned myself wondering why I was even attempting this, but to nearing the finish line, I didn't want to give up. I stayed at the Dark Cave searching for Dunsparse. Encountering even more Geodudes and Zubats during hours of searching, I felt like giving up and trying this out another day, but just before I was able to turn off the game and try again, the Dunsparse appeared. I captured this Level 4 beauty using an Ultra Ball because it was gonna be getting the coolest evolution of all time in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. This is absolute cap, by the way. The next two Pokémon needed TM2, which I bought for 2000 Poké Dollars. This TM is called Headbutt. I taught it to my dugong and headed to Route 29. Some Pokémon residing these trees and in this location, we're looking for Execute. I used Headbutt on the tree here and encountered a Hulu, and then right after, I found an Execute on another tree and caught it with an Ultra Ball. Now we have another Pokémon in catch using the same move, but in a different location. In Azalea Town, there's an area right here where you can use Headbutt. I bumped into a tree and there it was, an APOM. I'm pretty convenient that a monkey's in a tree. I caught the Level 10 female APOM and then Headbutting trees came to an end because that's literally all the Pokémon we need. I need Headbutt. Hopefully my character doesn't have a concussion. Next up was hunting Lickitung from Mahogany Town. I went east on Route 44, passing these trainers. Afterwards, I used dugong to surf across the water, reaching a hidden patch of grass. I was actually really surprised that I encountered a Level 24 male Lickitung on my first try. I used Poison Pounder on it to reduce his HP and I eventually caught it in an Ultra Ball. I'm kinda wondering, do people actually like Lickitung? Let me know. At the end of Route 44, you arrive at the Ice Path where you can find two Pokémon that we are hunting, Swineub and Sneezel. The catch is that one can be encountered during the day and the other one can be found at night. I first went after Swineub, a daytime Pokémon and captured it. Sneezel appears at night, proved to be a little more challenging because it had a 10% rarity to show up. But after trying for a while, I was finally able to encounter this Pokémon and catch the male Sneezel. Leaving Blackthorn, I journeyed southward to Route 45. When I arrived, I walked back and forth on the grassy patch. Once again, luck was on my side and I encountered a level 24 female Glygar. And after several tries, I caught it with an Ultra Ball. When playing a Gen 2 game, there's one Pokémon you just have to catch and that is the Shiny Red Gyarados that is located in the Lake of Rage. This literally has nothing to do with this video, it's just a bonus rare Pokémon that everyone must catch when you play a Gen 2 game. I ran into it as fast as possible with Surf and I eventually got it. And that is a Red Shiny Rare Gyarados added to my collection. It is the Shiny Pokémon. I found Magmar in the Silver Cave. I had to go far into the cave where it was hard to see so I taught a Pokémon Flash to lighten up the place. I met this level 45 female Magmar and caught her with an Ultra Ball. Mestrivis was a Pokémon that can only show up at night in the Silver Cave. I changed the time to night and finally encountered it. I caught it and it was level 45 male Mestrivis and I used that Ultra Ball for this one too. Pretty sure the Ultra Ball is probably the easiest ball to use for all these Pokémon. Another Pokémon that we need to catch at night is a Murkrow. So since it was night time I took advantage of this. I hurried to Route 7 in Kanto and searched a grassy spot. Luckily I met a level 17 female Murkrow right away. After handling Peck, Hayes and other moves from Murkrow I caught it with my trusty Ultra Ball. Totally forgot to mention this one early but when you play the game you'll be getting a Togupi egg in Violet City. This one's pretty simple. All you gotta do is just keep it in your party and walk around until it hatches. And in due time you'll be getting your Togupi which you'll be eventually evolving into Togutik and Togucis in a different game. Now let's talk about Eevee because we need three in future games. Leafeon, Glaceon and Sylveon. You receive your first Eevee as a gift in Celadon City right over here. To obtain the other two Eevee you must learn about breeding in the game. In Pokémon Crystal you need to catch a Ditto as I just did or any other compatible Pokémon but Ditto is just a lot easier. Next head to the Daycare Center and hand over your gifted Eevee and the Ditto you caught to the Daycare people. After a few hours when you return back to them you have to make sure the old man is standing outside the house in the back. That's how you know to have an egg ready for you. Get the Eevee egg from him, place the egg in your party and ride your bike around until it hatches. Then you'll have your second Eevee and then you just repeat this again and then you'll have your third Eevee and just like that we have three Eevees with the Game Boy mark. Now let's switch gears and focus on Pokémon Gold where I'm going to be catching the last two Pokémon that were not available in Pokémon Crystal. First we'll visit the Lake of Rage and go south from there and then explore this grassy area. And then after encountering a Pidgeotto and Mareep I met my level 15 male giraffe ring. Yes, a Pokémon that also gets an evolution in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Finally the last Pokémon is Manky which is located east of Mahogany town in a grassy patch. I encountered the Manky and successfully captured this thing is going to get so angry by the way that it's going to die in Generation 9 so just be prepared for your Manky to die. Now that we have all the Pokémon it's time to evolve them. Gather all the Pokémon from both Crystal and Gold and place them into box one of both the games. After that we're going to go into Poké Transporter and send them over to Pokémon Bank. The first Pokémon that we're going to evolve are Pikachu, Cubone, and Execucute. These are the only Pokémon going from Pokémon Bank into Pokémon Sun. Each of these Pokémon look normal but when they evolve they adapt to the form of the game they are in so they would evolve into their Alolan forms. That means you can only come to this game for an Alolan Evolution. On Konikoni City in Akala Island there's a shop that sells Evolution Stones. I picked some Stones up here and went right to evolving. Pikachu was easy to evolve into an Alolan Raichu which is so cool and it actually floats on its tail like an actual surfing Pikachu but it's Raichu. I used a Grass Stone on Execucute to get the giant Alolan Dragon Type Executor which was a complete shock to be a Dragon Type back in the day. And for Cubone to evolve into Alolan Marowak it had to be done at level 28 while it's nighttime. Once I got all three Alolan Evolutions I put them in my PC box, saved and closed the game and then I shipped them from Pokémon Sun and Moon right back into Pokémon Bank in the rare Pokémon Game Boy box. After that I sent all the Pokémon from Bank into Pokémon Home with the code transfer. Since we didn't need the 3DS anymore. From Pokémon Home I sent over Coffing and Eevee to Pokémon Sword. At level 35 Coffing will evolve into Weezing but since we are in the Galar region the Evolution will always be a Galarian Weezing which is a poison fairy type. After a little bit of a grind I got the Evolution. In order to evolve in Eevee into Sylveon it must know a fairy move and have high friendship in order to do the Evolution. I went to a Pokémon Center and talked to a move relearner so I can get a fairy move on this Eevee because fairy moves didn't exist back in Pokémon Crystal. If you didn't know experienced candies from Raiden's and Sword and Shield actually raised the friendship level. So I gave it some candies and leveled it up and it just evolved into Sylveon. Pretty easy. It's crazy to think that the Eevee I got wasn't even made to turn into a Sylveon. Next up I sent over a Magnumite to Eevee's Epaum, Yanma, Pangla, Swineb, and Licketong to Brilliant Diamond from Pokémon Home. For this game I just used a guard chomp to lead my party so I could just level really easily thanks to our experience share. Everyone's favorite feature that you can't turn off. I got my Magnumite to evolve into a Magneton at level 30 and then I just used a Thunderstone to get Magnazone. So that was pretty easy. I went to the Mossy Stone in Eternal Forest and battled a Pokémon and my Eevee just evolved into a Leafion. I know you could just use a Leafstone now but I wanted that rock to serve a purpose in the game because it just sits there doing nothing. And because I did that, I also went to the Ice Rock near Snow Point City, battled some Pokémon there and then the other Eevee I had evolved into a Glacian. Now I have all three Eevees done with their Game Boy marks. Now it's time for some Pokémon knowledge because this is not that easy to remember because I had a hard time. It removes that cross evolution Pokémon need to evolve. Epaum evolves into Ambipaum after learning the move Double Hit at level 32. I think of its evolutions, two big tailhands, things as a way to remember because of Double Hit stuff. Yanma, Tanglo, and Pilliswine all need Ancient Power as a move in order to evolve. Yanma evolves into Yanmega with that move at level 33. Tanglo evolves into Tangrow with Ancient Power at level 24. Swine Up at level 33 evolves into Pilliswine and once Pilliswine learns the move, Ancient Power, it evolves into Mammoth Swine. Think of it like this. Vines are Ancient, Dragonflies are Ancient and Mammoths are Ancient. Yep, that's all I got for you, but it works. Just try to remember that whenever you play another Pokémon game. Next up on the list is Lickitung. Now, Lickitung has to learn the move Rollout in order for it to evolve into Licky Licky, but usually you're able to find higher level Lickitung. So by the time you catch a Lickitung, it should already have the move available to learn Rollout and just relearn it at a move relearner or it's already on your Pokémon and you just have to level up once and you'll have yourself a Licky Licky. After completing this task, I sent all these Pokémon back to Pokémon home. Now we're putting Brilliant Diamond away. Next up, we're going to be talking about Pokémon Legends Arceus. The first Pokémon I wanted to evolve were the ones that got new evolutions in Legends Arceus. So I transferred out my Scyther, Teddy Ursa and Stantler. For a Scyther, you need something called Black Aguire. In order to get this, you need to defeat Graveler in battle. Just look for moving rocks in higher level areas or knock out a Graveler and you should be able to get one easily. After that, just open up my inventory, put it on my Scyther and it evolved into a Cleaver. Next up on the list was evolving my Teddy Ursa. I did some battling and got to level 30 where it could evolve into an Ursering. After that, I needed to find an item called Pete Moss, which funny enough, you need to use the Mount Ride Ursaluna to find it. I found mine here in the Crimson Mirelands and it took a bit to actually get one. After that, I headed over to the camp and had to keep pressing Knight and open up my menu to see if I can evolve Ursering as you have to wait for a full moon. So they kind of made it a little bit difficult here, finding the item and then waiting for a full moon. And by the way, you don't have to look at the sky to tell if it's a full moon. You just have to see if you can evolve your Pokemon. After a couple of nights, it showed up and I was able to easily evolve it into an Ursaluna. Not so easy, but I did it. Next up was Standler. And in order to evolve this Pokemon, you have to learn Psy Shield Bash, since it's a new move. Now, once you learn that move, you have to get it to a specific level at 31 where it learns the Agile version of Psy Kick Bash. So after doing that 20 times, I then evolved it into a Weird Deer. Is it Weird Deer or Weird Deer? I don't know. In Legend's Arceus, there's a cool mechanic known as Space Time Distortions, and they drop a lot of stuff, from shards to items to sell for money. But most importantly, these things have tons and tons of evolution items. The only problem is you have to wait for these time distortions to spawn. After doing a couple of these space time distortions, you should have some nice evolution items to start evolving Pokemon. The big benefit of doing this in Legend's Arceus is that you don't have to trade Pokemon to evolve it in this game. It's a very single player focused game and it works out very well. Use Legend's Arceus whenever you can to evolve Pokemon that usually you would have to trade for. I put the Magmarizer on my Magmar and got myself a Magmortar. I put the Electralizer on my Electabuzz and got myself an Electivire. Surprisingly, all these Pokemon for the Game Boy are pretty tiny. Now, if you don't wanna hang around and wait for a space time distortion, you can go around and collect some satchels. A big problem I had in this game was that I died a lot and it became such a meme on Twitter that people kept tweeting at me that they found my satchels. Anyway, once you get your satchels, you can collect points and when you head back to the main town, there's a shop lady that you can trade with for certain evolution items using all the points you collected from picking up these satchels. I evolved my Sneasel using a Razor Claw into a Weavile. You can't get Sneasler because its pre-evolution is a different variant of Sneasel, the Hissuian Sneasel. I evolved my Gligar into Gliscor using the Razor Fang. I just look at Sneasel's Claws and Gligar's Fangs so I know which evolution item is for what. I used to always get confused with these ones as well. For both Mistrevious and Mercrow, I used Dusk, Stones to evolve them into Miss Magius and Hodgecrow. The Porygon that I got from the game corner was very simple and thanks to Legends Arceus was a lot easier because all I had to do was slap an upgrade for my items and got Porygon too and then the Dubious Disc and I got my Porygon Z. No trading, easy peasy. Pocopy was the most exciting one to evolve because it just started as an egg in Pokemon Crystal. All you need to have is high friendship. In Legends Arceus, you just need to throw out that Pokemon and hit some trees and rocks and just don't let your Pokemon faint because that ruins friendship. Once it was maxed out, the Evolve notification came up and I got a Togetic. To get it to Togikis, all I had to use was a Shiny Stone which, as you know, is very easy to get now in this game and bam, Togikis. Look at all these Pokemon. Rhyhorn to Rhydon was simple. Just had to get it to level 42 with some grinding and then using a Protector item, just evolve it into Rhyperior and it feels so good once again to not trade to Evolve. All right, now to Pokemon Scarlet and Valet. From Pokemon Home, you have to bring Dunsparse, Manki and Giraffe ring into Scarlet or Valet. You have to evolve Manki into Primeape at level 28. To evolve Primeape into Annihilate, use Rage Fist 20 times and level up once and you'll get yourself an Annihilate that came from the Game Boy. Pretty much just a dead Primeape. Get your Dunsparse, level it up and once it has Hyperdrill as one of its moves, it'll evolve into a two segmented or the 1 in 100 chance of a three segmented form. I'm not sure how the data works for this one since they all come from the Game Boy. So let me know if you guys happen to get a three segmented one when you are evolving it here. Draft ring is pretty easy. Once you are level 32 in the game or it depends what level you transfer your Draft ring from in Pokemon Crystal, you'll have the move Twin Beam in your learned move sets. Once you level up, once you have the move Twin Beam equipped, you'll evolve and have yourself a Farigaraff that came from Jodo. And with that, you have 28 cross evolution Pokemon from the Game Boy.
