All Zinnia Battles | Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Delta Episode @Rubycario-yt

Rubycario Both Battles Against the Draconid Lorekeeper, Zinnia, in Pokemon Omega Ruby's and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire's Delta Episode.

I like Zinnia for what she was. However, I feel the Delta Episode was too short. I won't complain about it, because it was fantastic in my own opinion, but her character felt rushed because they crammed in so much lore into a story that took place in a span of maybe 2 hours. I feel like if the story was even an hour longer than things would feel a little more fleshed out. Nonetheless, I like Zinnia, and I'm hoping that someday in a future title we'll see her again.

Her Salamence ate my team for some reason. I was pretty under-leveled at the start of the Delta Episode, so there's that. I also could have handled the second battle a little better. If it was at all possible, I wouldn't use Rayquaza at all during the final battle with her. However the game forces you to put it on your team. I swapped it out, and didn't Mega it, however I still ended up relying on it in the end. Best Dragon specialist, in my honest opinion. And man, have there been a lot of them.

For special characters I always like to go all in for the template I'm using. Zinnia was a special case, though. Her first battle really didn't matter, she didn't have the Lorekeeper Trainer class, and didn't have any story built up at that point in the Delta Episode. She was just a generic Dragon specialist. Her second battle on the other hand her Trainer class changed, she had her full character background set up, and used her own theme (which is AMAZING, btw). I wanted to reflect her role as Lorekeeper, luckily enough for me, I have access to Alpha Sapphire's game files. That template is also special in regards to the fact it's the first time I've changed the player's box. That won't happen again for Alpha Sapphire footage, and may not happen again until whatever Platinum's deal is in the Diamond and Pearl remakes.

Full Pecharunt Event! - Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Epilogue

Rubycario 2024-01-13 | Full Pecharunt Event! - Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Epilogue

It's bitter sweet, this is by far my favorite cast in any Pokemon game, DLC characters included. I wish we had just one more full fledged DLC story with them. Scarlet and Violet, despite the horrendous performance and graphics, are easily my number 2 Pokemon game for me. If I didn't have Hoenn shaped nostalgia Go-Goggles on, they'd probably be my favorite in the franchise. Really hope we see more from this cast in future titles somehow.

Really like the use of Pokemon Legends: Arceus music here. Makes me wanna go back and play a better optimized game, lol. I liked this little sidequest. Little stories like this are what I expect from open world games, but Scarlet and Violet really didn't have anything like it in the base game. Hopefully they do more of this.

The Teal Mask DLC - FULL MAIN STORY | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2023-09-15 | The full DLC main story of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's DLC: The Teal Mask

Gonna do this for this and the next DLC and see how this pans out. I may still upload individual battles in their own videos, but for now here's a 3 hour long video. I'll get to the "post game" stuff soon. I would've uploaded this sooner, but I have this thing called a job, and technical difficulties with the render.

Regardless, I thought this DLC was okay. Not as good as the Isle of Armor imho, but it felt more like a stepping stone for Part 2. The game is still broken and buggy as all get out, though.

Final Battle - Ganondorf - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Rubycario 2023-06-02 | Final Battle - Demon King Ganondorf - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

This is only my second tussle with this guy, so I don't have all his attack patterns memorized, but I didn't want to use the original fight because, although I'm not the best, I didn't want to upload amateur hour.

Final thoughts, this game blew BotW out of the water. They're not even in the same ball park anymore. I really like this iteration of Ganondorf, they didn't try to make him sympathetic, he's just an angry dude with big ambitions. In terms of gameplay and narrative there's 0 reason for me to ever pick up BotW again when TotK is right here. It honestly feels like what BotW should've been.

Called this final fight over a week ago. The writing was on the wall and honestly they delivered.

Rubycario 2023-06-01 | All Master Kohga Battles - The Legend of Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom

Once I learned the depths existed, I wasn't surprised to see Kohga return. Honestly, I'm not opposed. He's good comic relief, he just got closed out too early in BotW, imho. Between AoC and TotK, he's one of the better characters in the series.

Each of these was my first fight with him.

Spirit Temple Boss Fight: Seized Construct - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Rubycario 2023-06-01 | Spirit Temple Boss Fight: Seized Construct - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Gonna be real, I didn't like this fight. Mainly because I truly hate how the Mineru's mech controls. This was my first run in with this boss, and it shows. I spent most of the time getting to this fight outside of the mech because it's slow, clunky, and irritable to work with. So I was learning a lot on the fly here.

Water Temple Boss Fight: Mucktorok - The Legend of Zelda:Tears of the Kingdom

Rubycario 2023-05-30 | Water Temple Boss Fight: Mucktorok - The Legend of Zelda:Tears of the Kingdom

This was my first run in with this boss, so I'm learning on the fly here. However, I honestly think Sidon's ability sucks. It's clunky, the shielding is useless because it doesn't last very long, and I can do what his ability allows with arrows 10x better. Sidon is a fine character, but damn he's just useless. Mipha's was also arguably useless, too after a certain point in BotW. They're doing these fish people dirty.

This boss was just straight up annoying. The boss itself wasn't even hard, it was all the crawling Gibdos that made things a pain. Every boss after this one was my first run through, but this one took a few tries. To think I was about to go here first like I did in BotW.

Fur Hire vs. Timelords | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel | Legend Anthology Event

Rubycario 2023-02-19 | Fur Hire vs. Timelords | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel | Legend Anthology Event

He spent the entire Duel cockblocking my attacks, I spent the entire Duel cockblocking his effects. I had a lot of fun with this one, not every day I get to fight Timelords.

After realizing he was running Timelords, my main strategy was to just burn with Sagitta, or draw into a card that could stop a Timelord from hitting the field like Solemn Judgement. This deck doesn't have much going for it aside from Unga Bunga, so it was tough to work around my opponent's cards. I don't have anything in my Extra Deck other than Folgo, I need to change this.

The background music is Climax 11 from Master Duel, it plays during the Legend Anthology Event.

7-Star Greninja Raid Battle | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2023-01-27 | Battle against the 7-Star raid Pokemon, Greninja in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.

I used the same Qwilfish from the Cinderace raid because I assumed that Greninja would predominantly be a physical attacker, I was incorrect. Still, if I had a Qwilfish set up with some Sp.Def EVs and a Slowbro as a party member then this strategy looks like it still works pretty decently.

7-Star Cinderace Raid Battle | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2023-01-13 | Battle against the 7-Star raid Pokemon, Cinderace in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.

I played support. This is my first time doing a 7-Star raid, so I'm not sure if I supported right, but I got a teammate who knew the strat I was banking on. I deeply regret not naming this Qwilfish "support main" before catching it. Also not entirely sure I was doing things right, but the Slowbro got the boost it needed, so I mean.

All Gym Leader Battles | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2022-12-18 | All Gym Leader battles in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet.

I keep forgetting to upload this, been sitting on my hard drive for about a week. This is the order I fought them in, but the Leaders in this game can be battled in any order. For those wondering, I generally play Pokemon titles with the 'Set' battle style instead of 'Switch', for some reason, Game Freak removed the 'Set' style from the game, so I am manually rejecting the option to swap out. Add it back, please.

As you can see, they're a cakewalk. I am the type of person to get easily distracted in an open world game and get over leveled without trying due to this. This game NEEDED a level scaling feature.

I do like that double battle gyms are beginning to become more of a standard. SwSh and now SV have had them, when previously only RSE and their remakes did. We need more of that, or just an option to play the entire game with doubles.

Note to self: Update thumbnail style. It's getting cramped and hard to get good shots with.

Portal - Full Game (PC)

Rubycario 2022-12-11 | The full game of Valve's 2007 hit, Portal.

I uploaded the RTX one, I may as well upload the normal one, too.

Not really much to say about it, Portal, and by extension Portal 2, is my favorite game of all time. Figured if I was uploading half baked RTX footage I may as well just upload the original game as well. If you haven't played Portal, stop watching and do it. It goes on sale for like a dollar every other week.

I cut out Still Alive because of copyright. Unfortunately it falls into a copyright category that's more strict than Want You Gone in Portal 2, so I'm omitting it. Sorry.

There's no images in the game that are thumbnail worthy, so I'll get around to something more artsy fartsy at a later date and time.

Probably.

Portal with RTX - Full Game (3060Ti)

Rubycario 2022-12-11 | Nvidia's RTX tech demo, Portal with RTX, running on a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060Ti

Put it in the beginning of the video, but I'll toss it in the description here as well. This tech demo was made to push the new 4080 and 4090 GPUs to their limits. That being said, I'm a broke bitch, I have no money, and I am going to be sticking with 3060Ti until it eventually starts to die. However, Portal is my favorite game of all time, I'm willing to run this test on lower hardware.

That being said, doing so kinda defeats the purpose of it, it lags even at lower settings, and the artstyle is at constant odds with itself. I can't recommend this over the original 2007 version of Portal. It's cool, but it's not something that other games built around this technology can't do better. Essentially what we have here is an HD texture pack with some new lighting features tossed into the mix.

Fortnite Fracture Live Event - Full

Rubycario 2022-12-04 | Fortnite Chapter 4 Live Event: Fracture - Full Event

After collecting a very many ball, we saved Fork Knife.

I have some mixed feelings on this event. On one hand, I did enjoy it, even if it was essentially a Creative map with a bunch of fetch quests.

On the other hand, what was the Herald's endgame? To blow up the Island? Why? What did she gain from doing that? She seemingly died in the process just like, because? Why did Brie Larson act like she was gonna get bodied even though she was perfectly fine? Are the other Seven still actually dead?

Like, I'm sure she did it all to make the Zero Point more vulnerable to a larger threat, but the way she went about doing it? Kinda wack.

Gameplay was mild, but fine, narrative was weird. I know it's Fortnite and the story hasn't ever been next level writing, but they just kind of took a nosedive into nothing this event.

Speaking of, the Nothing was brought up a LOT during the course of Chapter 3 Season 4, but nothing came from that either. Again, it's Fork Knife, I shouldn't care this much, but I do for some ungodly reason.

All Team Star Boss Battles | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2022-11-28 | All battles against Team Star's bosses in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet

Due to the open world nature of this game, this may be out of order compared to how you all may have fought them, this is just the order I went with. I cut out a lot of context with this storyline, but tried to leave enough in for it all to still make sense. This video is one of the longest I've had to post so far, so I'm trying to keep it more to the point than anything, hope that's okay. I left Dr. Clavell's battle in there because he was a misdirect for Cassiopeia's true identity, even though he clearly was not Team Star's leader.

Vegas kept crashing on me as I tried to render this, finally got it through. I had no real interest in the Team Star storyline when I started this game, so I basically avoided it until about Gym 7, I think. So I'm WAY over leveled for most of these fights, sorry. Some level scaling would've been amazing, but nah, guess that's a bad idea. By the end, I liked this story though.

One of them is named Atticus. Dude's got my favorite name. Kind of a weird guy, though.

All Elite Four Battles | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2022-11-26 | All Elite Four Battles | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Thankfully, my music didn't glitch out.

I like this cast of Elite 4 members, tbh. They're all memorable in their own ways. Poppy was definitely named after the hammer wielding Yordle, nobody can convince me otherwise.

For those wondering, I normally play Pokemon games with the "Set" battle style instead of the "Switch" battle style. For some bizzaro reason Game Freak didn't add Set to the games for the first time ever. This is why I refuse to swap out when the game asks, I prefer playing on Set.

Rubycario 2022-11-23 | All battles against Professor Sada in Pokemon Scarlet

This video contains a LOT of spoilers, so if you haven't played the game and don't want to be spoiled, then you may want to come back later. For everyone else, what's up?

For anyone who wants to see this entire sequence through Violet's perspective, my brother uploaded that to his second channel, check it out!
youtube.com/watch?v=TKV-5YJtIyY

I honestly really, REALLY liked this plot line. They dialed the maturity knob from a 2 to a 5 and weren't afraid to talk about things that aren't all sunshine and rainbows. I appreciate this. I haven't felt emotional from a Pokemon game. Ever. But this ending kinda got me.

Top Champion Geeta Battle | Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

Rubycario 2022-11-22 | Top Champion Geeta Battle | Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet

Gonna be pushing out videos on this game now. I'll do what I can do upload in a timely manner.

For anyone wondering, choosing to set the battle style to Set instead of Switch isn't an option in this game for some bizarro reason. So that's why I chose to never swapped anything out. I normally play on Set.

Since this is my first video on this game, I'll talk about it a bit. I enjoy this game, a lot. Game Freak honestly nailed a lot of what they were trying to do with an open world Pokemon title. HOWEVER, the amount of bugs, and glitches, frame drops, and everything else about this poorly optimized mess of a game cannot be overlooked. The game feels like an Early Access title at best. It's not complete, and I stand by what I said when it was first announced. Two Game Freak made Pokemon titles in a single year is a BAD thing. The game was rushed out, and it shows. Get your shit together, Game Freak. This could've gone over a thousand times better if you took your time.

Just going through some old footage, found this funny, thought I'd upload it. I was so relieved to finally beat Giratina, only to be told no 5 seconds later.

Also testing shorts, hope I'm doing it right.

Final Boss + Ending | Portal 2 - Portal: The Companion Collection - Nintendo Switch

Rubycario 2022-07-04 | The final boss on the Nintendo Switch port of Portal 2, in the Companion Collection.

Against my better judgement, I upped the brightness on this video. There are a LOT of black surfaces in this arena, and Youtube's compression doesn't like that. Hopefully it's not too noticeable.

Final thoughts on the collection, this is a surprisingly good port. I know the Nintendo Switch is underpowered by today's console standards, but aside from some low AA in Portal 2, these games run really, REALLY well. If Valve wants to port all 3 HL2 games as well in their own collection, I wouldn't say no to that.

If you somehow haven't played these games and only own a Nintendo Switch, it's worth picking up this collection. Portal is my favorite game series of all time, so I'm VERY biased, but it's always worth the purchase, imho.

All Still Alive Bonus Maps | Portal - Portal: The Companion Collection - Nintendo Switch

Rubycario 2022-07-01 | All the bonus maps from the Xbox 360's Xbox Live Arcade version of Portal, except now they're on the Nintendo Switch, too!

Honestly the highest selling point of this collection to me. These maps haven't been playable in any official capacity since the Xbox Live Arcade release back in 2008. After 14 years, they've finally re-released this content. They're not even in the Steam version! Didn't retain the Still Alive exclusive achievements, but the maps are here and that's the main thing.

These chambers were originally made for the Portal: The Flash Version Map Pack a LONG time ago, but Valve contacted the creator and reworked them for the Xbox Live Arcade's Portal: Still Alive back in 2008.

Fortnite Collision Live Event

Rubycario 2022-06-04 | Fortnite: Chapter 3 Season 2 Live Event - COLLISION [No Commentary]

My first ever Fortnite event. Never been a fan of this game due to the building, but ever since they've added a No Build mode, I think it's worth sticking around for. The events have always caught my attention, and this one was pretty good.

Need to make some edits to my recording settings for the next one. There's some laggy bits, but that's not caused by the game, it's caused by OBS. Since these live events are one time deals, I can't exactly go back and re-record it, so this'll have to do for my own personal archive.

Speedroids vs. Stardust/Synchrons | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel Replay

Rubycario 2022-04-19 | Honestly, the most fun I've had with the Synchro Festival. Probably one of the more interesting Duels I've had during the course of this event. Also probably the last I'll upload from this event.

Synchro Festival in a Nutshell

Rubycario 2022-04-12 | It took this dude more than 15 minutes to make his turn. I actually forgot the Duel was open since I muted it to watch the Stranger Things 4 trailer like 3 times, but by the time I did that he was still going.

Final Volo Battle | Pokemon Legends: Arceus

Rubycario 2022-02-07 | Final Volo Battle | Pokemon Legends: Arceus

I haven't felt this much anger at Pokemon since I was a kid. I mean that in a good way, btw. This fight was hard. Hard enough for me to go out and level grind for a little bit to stand a chance.

Getting through Volo, fine, no problem, I usually had 1 Pokemon left by the end. Facing Giratina without any opportunity to heal in between fights? Not a chance. My team is made of glass, I can't take 3 fights in a row.

It's been more than 3 days since I uploaded, and the game has been out for around 2 weeks. Not overly worried about spoilers in the thumbnail anymore.

This is the greatest Pokemon game I have played in over a decade.

If I like your game enough to attempt no damage boss runs on it, you made a good game. Nice work Game Freak. Please find a way to keep bosses like this around. They're hella fun.

Fur Hire vs. Frightfur | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel - Duel Replay

Rubycario 2022-01-22 | Fur Hire vs. Frightfur | Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel - Duel Replay

This was more or less just an upload to see how Youtube handled my render settings with this game, but it turned out all right. Figured I'd make it public. The only real option for dueling right now is ranked, so finding fun decks to fight while also using a fun deck isn't exactly the best thing in the world. An unranked Quick Match option would be nice, but I've had a few good ones.

I play Fluffals/Frightfurs as well, so this was a fun duel for me. He played them pretty well, too. If I didn't have There Can be Only One, I'm not sure I'd have won that. One of the closest Duels I've had so far.

Music is from Master Duel - Climax 5

Portal 2 Custom Map | Secondary Fire: Hard Light

Rubycario 2022-01-07 | Download the map here!: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2709401256

You can also download the previous Secondary Fire maps here:
steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=482511113

I figured it's about time I get this one out into the world.

Secondary Fire is a series of maps heavily based off the Portal 1 mod, Blue Portals. You can only use the orange Portal, though. This map relies around Hard Light Bridges.

This map's been partially done for a few years now, but I was never happy with the second chamber's solution, and was pretty creatively tapped out at the time. This new one is better, imho. Hopefully, despite some tight timing, it's at least somewhat fun.

There are a few backstage areas if you're willing to find them, some are right in your face, others require a little more effort. Let me know if you stumble across the hidden ones.

Custom Fizzler Elements include
-Shield Wall (Yellow) - Will stop everything from passing through it except bullets and portals.
-Death Fizzlers (Red) - Pretty straightforward. It's a Fizzler. A Fizzler that will kill you.
-Compressed Smoke Fields (Purple) - Won't allow portals or the test subject to pass through it, however vital testing apparatus will be able to pass through without issues.
-Surface Division Fields (Green) - It's essentially just a really fancy, two sided, door.

Credits for the custom Fizzler textures and concepts go to FourthReaper and LPFreaky90. Idk if those're still the usernames they're going by, but all credit goes straight to them.

I enjoy a lot of games, a lot of amazing games, but there are very few I can call my favorite. PMD2, Pac-Man, and Portal(2) were the only ones that truly made that cut for me, then this little fox-goat-cat-rabbit-monkey-flashlight-thing kicks down the door and becomes one of the best franchises I've ever played. It's been a long time since a game has been this fun for me, and I'm just disappointed I didn't play them both sooner.

Void Glitch in Ori and the Will of the Wisps

Rubycario 2021-08-21 | I'm going for no damage runs on the bosses in this game, got damaged, reset, then voided out. I've seen instances of this happen to people before, but never during a boss fight. The boss started taking damage, and eventually the music kicked back in. Idk, thought it was weird.

Just kinda uploading whatever I want now, tbh. I'm working on a Pokemon video about the new stuff, but eh.

For anyone wondering, it is repeatable. Managed to do it again a few times. Doesn't actually seem like I'm falling, though. It looks more like I'm staying in place.

Reading is Important

Wellspring Escape - 44.74 Seconds (Rank 115) | Ori and the Will of the Wisps (PC)

Rubycario 2021-08-10 | Wellspring Escape - 44.74 Seconds (Rank 115) | Ori and the Will of the Wisps (PC)

Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?

I've reached my limit, this is the best I think I'm going to be capable of. My rank went from 328 to 250 to 115, and I've tried for hours now to get lower than this, and it usually ends up at around the same time. Unless I can get the wheel to despawn on me somehow, this is the best I'm capable of. Sub 45 and in the top 200 isn't bad, but that's where my "skill" caps out, it seems.

But you know what? That's fine. I'll take the Zombies number, even if for only a little while.

I've set the last video to unlisted. That way I don't have 2 floating around. If I ever get lower than this, then I'll do the same for this one. If you want to view that, you can here:

On the small chance you're wondering why the screen just sat there for a few seconds at the end, I was excited and talking to myself. Here's my reaction if you want to see it: youtube.com/watch?v=byyfyaNixZI

For those who may be wondering the following:
I'm playing through Steam on PC, so I don't know how that affects the rankings or if they're different between PC, Switch, and Xbox.
I'm using a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
