| 15 | * Chugga manages a 101 Power Bounce combo, the highest possible combo before the game cuts you off. |
| 16 | * After defeating General Guy, an event triggers that gets him double Star Points. [[NoIndoorVoice His response certainly says so as well.]] |
| 17 | * Taking on Huff N. Puff, who is regarded by many [[ThatOneBoss as the hardest mandatory fight in the game]], and winning without much difficulty by following an easy strategy to remove much of the damage by using Chill Out at the start of the fight. |
| 18 | * Chugga takes down the Anti Guy Squad in Bowser's Castle, the hardest boss in the game. |
| 19 | * To finish the final fight with Bowser, Chugga's RunningGag of shouting [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros "PK Starstorm!"]] when finishing off bosses is taken up a notch when he summons [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 Ness]] and has him finish Bowser off in style. |

| 23 | * There's a Frog Coin that's only available at a specific point in the game. After missing it the first time, he plays the ''entire game over'' just to try again. He gets it on that second attempt. |
| 24 | [[/folder]] |

| 27 | * After chapter 5-1[[labelnote:*]]The first episode of Chapter 5[[/labelnote]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ9FcAr1x5s Chugga chewing out his fans]] for acting immature and raising hell about an artwork of Kumatora. It takes guts to tell off people on [=YouTube=], especially your own fans, deserving it as much as they were. |
| 28 | * The finale, which includes voice acting for the characters. |
| 29 | ** Hell, the ''entire M3'' LP, mostly due to it [[NoExportForYou not being released in America]], and also because you can ''hear'' him crying during [[TearJerker Chapter 6]]. |
| 30 | ** Especially his ''very convincing'' voice acting for Porky. |

| 33 | [[folder:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]] |
| 34 | * [[CurbStompBattle Beating Macho Grubba without taking a single hit]] certainly counts. |
| 35 | * The [[SequentialBoss back-to-back battles]] with Grodus and Bowser. For starters, his [[CursedWithAwesome curse]] took effect after he beat Grodus and ''doubled'' the Star Points he got from the battle, putting his earnings right up there at 60+ (which is at least half a level for those of you not in the know). Then in the Bowser and Kammy fight, the curse struck again when he used a [[DeathOfAThousandCuts Power Bounce]] against Bowser, raising his attack power and pretty much demolishing Bowser's HP. On top of that, he risked not using a healing item when he had one HP left since he had spare Life Shrooms. Bowser's next attack ''missed him anyway''. As he noted, if the curse took effect again and doubled his SP from THAT battle, it would've been the perfect run for him. |

| 38 | [[folder:Pokémon [=FireRed=]]] |
| 39 | * After so long of being the ButtMonkey, Spearow (later, Khold) managed to solo two separate [[{{Mook}} Rocket Grunts]]. With Fury Attack, of all moves. |
| 40 | * During the fight against Gary in Cerulean City, Spearow ''almost'' managed to take out Pidgeotto without healing. He only didn't because Fury Attack doesn't have the best accuracy. |
| 41 | ** On Gary's end, his Rattata pulled one off in the HilariousOuttakes. He was the last Pokémon out, and was getting utterly destroyed by [[TheAce Ivysaur (Bulbapedia)]]. At the last second, he got a Quick Attack in and landed a critical hit, costing Chugga the fight. |
| 42 | --->'''Chugga:''' [[TemptingFate The heck was I worried about? It's a freaking Rattata]]--[[BigWhat WHAT!? WHAT!? WHAT!?]] (''groans in defeat'') [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe You gotta be shitting...]] |
| 43 | ** On that take, Ivysaur [[OneManArmy almost took down Gary's entire team by himself]]. |
| 44 | * Spearow once again proving his worth by taking on most of the Pokémon on Nugget Bridge. He also would have evolved if Chugga didn't want him to learn Aerial Ace. |
| 45 | * The rival battle on the S.S. Anne starts going incredibly badly when both Spearow and Meowth (Meow Mix) end up K.O.'d by Gary's Raticate. Ivysaur then proceeded to clean up house and take on both Kadabra ''and'' Charmeleon (Potion-assisted for the latter, but still), defeating them both despite the major type disadvantage. |
| 46 | * Ivysaur's basically been sweeping the first three Gym Leaders, but his fight against Lt. Surge's Raichu deserves special mention. Despite a Double Team boost, Ivysaur manages to land every single hit. |
| 47 | * Mimien the Mr. Mime quickly gains levels and manages to land a critical hit on a Pikachu. It was awesome enough to warrant him being called by name. |
| 48 | * Spearow ''finally'' learns Aerial Ace and one-shots an Oddish and a Pidgey with it right before evolving into Fearow. Bonus points for getting a critical hit on the latter, bypassing a Meowth's Growl entirely. |
| 49 | * Chugga managing to catch a Snorlax in a Poké Ball is pretty impressive, especially considering its catch rate of 25. |
| 50 | * Lapras (Tessie) taking down a Nidorino that's 12 levels higher than it via "Para-freakin'-fusion!" |
| 51 | ** Later, she manages to take on the Karate Master's Hitmonlee without taking damage. She would have had no problem with Hitmonchan either, had he not paralyzed her with Thunder Punch. |
| 52 | ** She ''[[RuleOfThree then]]'' manages to take down Sabrina's Kadabra and Mr. Mime in short order. |
| 53 | * Chugga catching Articuno in two Ultra Balls; even he was surprised at how short that took. |
| 54 | * Apparently, something was bugging Chugga so much that he had to nerd out about it: that being, Electrode being unable to learn Surf. |
| 55 | --> ''Electrode has a height of 3'11 and a weight of 146.8 lbs. Assuming that it is a shape of a perfect sphere in which its diameter times its height, one can easily calculate its density is 73.6 kilograms per cubic meter. As the density of water is 1,000 kilograms per meters cubed, it should be able to easily float on water carrying something as heavy as 2,000 lbs, [[FridgeLogic but it can't learn Surf]].'' |
| 56 | * As if catching Articuno so easily wasn't enough, his capturing Zapdos pretty much [[VisualPun sparks]] a RunningGag. |
| 57 | --> '''''YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!''' Oh my god! After all 30 of my Ultra Balls failed, a Poké Ball caught it!'' |
| 58 | * Khold taking out three out of Blaine's Pokémon because he kept spamming Fire Blast the whole time. As a bonus, Khold only got hit ''once.'' |
| 59 | ** To be fair to Khold, Fire Blast doesn't have 100% accuracy; while it's better than similarly-powerful moves Thunder and Blizzard, it lacks their weather-induced accuracy boost attribute. |
| 60 | * Venusaur trying out his new Frenzy Plant on the Hypno in Berry Forest. |
| 61 | * Lapras manages to sweep through every single member of Gary's pre-Victory Road team by herself, without healing. Too bad Charizard had to steal her thunder. |
| 62 | ** [=RK9=], Meow Mix, and Mimien working together to finish the job. |
| 63 | * During a Double Battle, [=RK9=] takes a Superpower from a Nidoqueen. She survives with a sliver of health and finishes her opponent with a Fire Blast to the face. |
| 64 | * At the end of a laughably painful fight against Lorelei, Tessie wakes up from Jynx's Lovely Kiss and uses Surf. She then activates her Quick Claw and lands a second attack. |
| 65 | * Bulbapedia landing critical hits on ''both'' of Bruno's Onix, then a third crit on Machamp with Frenzy Plant. On that note, Mimien manages a crit on Hitmonchan. |
| 66 | * Mimien sweeping through 3/5 of Agatha's team, only getting switched out when he ran out of PP for Psychic. Followed by Meow Mix finishing off her second Gengar and utterly destroying her Haunter. |
| 67 | * It's no surprise that Tessie would be the trump card against Lance, but her taking two Ancient Powers from Aerodactyl is nothing short of impressive. |
| 68 | * Tessie gets ''another'' one during the Champion fight against Gary, taking out half of his team including Charizard, whom she actually tanked a Fire Blast from this time. She even got him to use up his Sitrus Berry! She could have even taken out Alakazam, had two Full Restores not been used. |
| 69 | ** At the very least, it's followed up by [=RK9=] finishing Alakazam with Double-Edge. |
| 70 | * Even though Meow Mix is OvershadowedByAwesome, he does at least manage to take out two of its own kind in the postgame without taking any damage. |
| 71 | * Mewtwo ended up getting caught due in part to an [[AwesomeYetImpractical Onix's]] Dragon Breath! |
| 72 | * The Elite Four rematches end up giving at least a few of these. |
| 73 | ** Against Lorelei, Mimien ended up swapping Magical Leaf for ''Thunder'', using it to outright destroy Dewgong and Cloyster, then taking out Piloswine with two Psychics. Tessie then proceeds to force Jynx to switch out for Lorelei's own Lapras who destroys those two, before Meow Mix manages to finish the job. |
| 74 | ** Both of Bruno's Steelix are beaten in one hit by [=RK9=], Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee both go down very easily to Khold, and though Machamp gets a Rock Slide in, Khold hangs on and manages to finish it off. |
| 75 | ** After a rocky start involving Agatha's Crobat, Tessie manages to fight off Misdreavus' Attract before taking down Arbok, followed by [=RK9=] completely overpowering it. |
| 76 | ** After Lance's Gyarados takes out both Tessie and Mimien, Bulbapedia hits ''twice'' with Frenzy Plant in the span of an entire round, takes a Hyper Beam with 6 HP left, and finishes it off with Razor Leaf. Meow Mix then destroys Kingdra with Toxic, long after fainting. A swift stall-healing session allows Tessie to wreck the rest of the team. |
| 77 | ** Finally, the rematch against Gary. Khold starts off strong by destroying Heracross in one hit, followed by Bulbapedia defeating Tyranitar (after a misstep), Meow Mix getting Toxic and Screech on Alakazam so it can get taken out by a combination of Tessie, poison, and Sand Stream (Khold had a NegatedMomentOfAwesome), Exeggutor going down fairly easily, Mimien taking Gyarados out with Thunder, then having his remaining Pokémon bring Charizard down to Full Restore status. [=RK9=] then hits it with a strong enough Extreme Speed to make it faint from Sandstorm with [[BookEnds Bulbapedia out on the field]]. And before the finishing blow, [[ItMakesSenseInContext Chugga calls Charizard out on the fact that his R/B/Y back sprite looks like a donkey]]! |

| 88 | * When attempting to catch a Growlithe, Odairu the Totodile ends up taking it out via accidental critical hit. The next one he finds ''also'' takes a crit, with much less damage sustained. Apparently, he ended up becoming tanky enough to deliver a CurbStompBattle to Bugsy's [[LightningBruiser Scyther]]. ElementalRockPaperScissors or not, getting hit by a Scytler is like getting hit by a speeding car most of the time. [[https://youtu.be/uiGn2QyxigM?list=PLA82D107ECDCFC4AB&t=416 The glorious moment is shown here.]] |
| 89 | * When dealing with [[ThatOneBoss Whitney]], Phanpy (later, Darmani) manages to lower Miltank's accuracy well enough so that a direct hit ends up becoming a rarity. Odairu's [[EleventhHourSuperpower evolution into Croconaw]] also ended up being the key to beating her. |
| 90 | * Phanpy, Odairu, and Roary each get one against the Kimono Girls, with Phanpy out-tanking an [[StoneWall Umbreon]] and ''almost'' defeating an [[SquishyWizard Espeon]], Odairu beating down a [[StoneWall Vaporeon]], and Roary beating a [[LightningBruiser Jolteon]] (though those last two were offscreen, mostly). There was also a [[MemeticLoser Flareon]] in that sequence, but... |
| 91 | * Finding a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlF_RxM-_D4 Shiny Koffing]]. It was the first Koffing he found, literally a moment after saying he'd like to catch one, and it just happened to land on the ''minuscule'' 1 in 8192 chance to be a Shiny. |
| 92 | * Phanpy ''almost'' managed to beat Morty's Gengar via Rollout combo. It only didn't work because Gengar got lucky with Hypnosis. |
| 93 | ** Odairu flooring Gengar after being revived. |
| 94 | * One for Vui the Eevee and Methane the shiny Koffing: Vui gets one for almost taking down Schoolboy Chad's Mr. Mime despite the massive stat disadvantage, and Methane for tanking its Confusion with ''3 HP'' and finishing it with Sludge. |
| 95 | * The fight against Chuck has quite a few of these: Darmani (now evolved into Donphan in time for the fight) manages to take out Primeape and at least get a Mud-Slap on Poliwrath to lower its accuracy, followed by Methane surviving a Surf and using Poison Gas and Self-Destruct to bring it to low health, concluded with Vui avoiding a Dynamic Punch and allowing Poliwrath to faint from poison afterwards. |
| 96 | * The second attempt at catching the Lake of Rage's Gyarados results in it getting caught with a single Great Ball. Allegedly, the first recording had all the balls miss. |
| 97 | * Roary's first battle as an Arcanine involved a Koffing [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Self-Destructing on the first turn in fear]], then [[CurbStompBattle one-shots a second Koffing]]! That is one GenreSavvy Koffing. Also doubles as a [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments funny moment]]. |
| 98 | * Continuing the trend of amazing debut battles, Vui's very first fight as an Espeon involves him demolishing Ariana's Vileplume with Psybeam. TookALevelInBadass, anyone? |
| 99 | * Darmani taking on all of Archer's team and beating his Houndoom with only 6 HP remaining: just enough to use Flail. |
| 100 | * Catching Suicune in two balls, the last of which was a Poké Ball! |
| 101 | ** He then proceeds to turn Suicune into [[AlmightyJanitor an HM Slave]]! Even going so far as to name him "[[MundaneMadeAwesome Epic Slave]]". |
| 102 | * Vui managing to take out Clair's Kingdra and second Dragonair. The former for powering through [[ThatOneBoss the most infamous boss after Whitney's Miltank]], and the latter for dealing with an accuracy debuff ''and'' paralyzation. |
| 103 | * Odairu powering through 2/3 of [[TheRival Eyan's]] Pokémon by himself. |
| 104 | * Roary and Vui manage to completely thrash Koga's team while the latter only got to attack ''once.'' |
| 105 | * Volvagia the Dragonair defeating Bruno's Machamp and Hitmonlee while Vui was incapacitated. She manages to defeat the former without getting hit, and the latter is just barely taken out with an Extreme Speed. |
| 106 | * Methane tanking Karen's Umbreon despite lowered accuracy and confusion. It's then followed by him taking on Vileplume and delivering a CurbStompBattle. |
| 107 | * The fight against Lance has quite a few of these, such as Odairu taking on Lance's Gyarados and utterly destroying two of Lance's Dragonite by freezing them with Ice Punch, Vui managing to get the third and strongest Dragonite into constantly hitting itself, and Volvagia hanging on with 10 HP and taking out Aerodactyl. |
| 108 | * Following up on awesome Snorlax catches, the Snorlax in Kanto is caught in a single Ultra Ball. |
| 109 | * In the fight against Brock, we get this bit against Kabutops: |
| 110 | --> Well! Uh, you weaken me with Surf...and I'm going to weaken you with [[SuddenlyShouting WHAT THE HECK, BOOM!]] |
| 111 | * Vui defeating Eyan's Alakazam with a single critical Shadow Ball, despite his less-than-stellar attack stat. There's also Methane taking Magneton out with a single Explosion despite it [[ScissorsCutsRock being a steel type]] [[MightyGlacier with a respectable defense stat]]. |
| 112 | * More awesomeness from Vui: he manages to avoid ''two'' Blizzards from Misty's Lapras with 18 HP left, due to Chugga wanting to be ballsy and trying to finish it off with Bite. |
| 113 | * We all know it was inevitable due to Darmani being a ground type, but him soloing Lt. Surge's gym Bulbapedia style deserves a mention. He managed to utterly destroy the competition with Rollout combos, even powering through Double Team to do so, with the most damage taken being from a ''fricken Explosion!'' |
| 114 | * Catching Entei on the first Ultra Ball. |
| 115 | * He then manages to catch Ho-Oh in a Poké Ball like he did with Suicune. |
| 116 | * On a Gym Leader's side, Blue's Exeggutor hitting Vui with a Solar Beam strong enough to pierce through his special defense. It wasn't even a critical hit! |
| 117 | * Volvagia's evolution into Dragonite [[EleventhHourSuperpower couldn't come soon enough]]! The final opponent of the entire playthrough was none other than Red's Charizard, whom she proceeded to have a pretty climactic final battle with, paralyzing it and hitting it with everything she had. With one final Extreme Speed, the playthrough was finished. |

| 134 | * After so many years, he ''finally'' uploaded the second of the three Devil trial gates. And one five month gap later, he's finally completed the third one, filling every nook and cranny that the game has to offer. |

| 140 | [[folder:Pikmin 2]] |
| 141 | * He has stated how he [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes hates Wollywogs]] from ''Pikmin''. However, in this game, he ''kills every single one he finds without any Pikmin dying'' (at least so far, with the exception being in the Bulblax Kingdom where he was unaware of the Wollywog until it attacked). Every fight with a Wollywog has been a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome - especially the one where the Wollywog ''seemed'' to land on his Pikmin, but just barely missed. This streak was broken in Episode 25, but it's still awesome he made it that far. |
| 142 | * In the Submerged castle, twice, his Pikmin managed to avoid near death. Once (episode 26), a blue tripped in front of the Waterwraith. However, it wasn't killed. Chugga's reaction was enough to rival his original reaction to Steve. The second time (Episode 27), he was cornered against a wall. The Waterwraith was approaching. Then, the Waterwraith turns around, not killing any Pikmin. This then repeated again, in the same spot. |
| 143 | * Chugga defeating Man-At-Legs (basically a Arachnorb ''with a'' '''''machine gun'''''), while only losing ''4 purples''. ''Without'' using a Purple Spray. |
| 144 | ** That he defeated the Man-at-Legs rematch in the Hole of Heroes, using only blue Pikmin, without using a Purple Spray, and without losing a SINGLE Pikmin... further CMOA. |
| 145 | * Finding not one, not two, but ''three'' purple potions at once after breaking open three eggs. Even better because he'd been talking about wanting to find purple potions for almost the entire thing. |
| 146 | * [[MemeticMutation S]][[MemeticBadass t]][[CreatorBacklash e]][[NeverLiveItDown v]][[VideoGame/{{Pikmin}} e]] makes [[BackForTheFinale one more appearance after the final battle]], carrying Louie back to the ship and being the one to 100% the entire game after spending [[HeWhoMustNotBeNamed the entirety of it]] [[TheScottishTrope being relegated to brief off-hand comments]]. |
| 147 | [[/folder]] |
| 148 | |
| 149 | [[folder:Majora’s Mask]] |
| 150 | * After suffering from CreatorBacklash for so long regarding [[VideoGame/{{Pikmin}} Steve]], Chugga finally lets loose. |
| 151 | --> '''Chugga''': 'Troop', huh... Okay, fine! STEVE! There you go! Happy? I said it. It stopped being funny after the Pikmin 1 Let's Play, okay...okay, anyway... |
| 152 | * A real life one, the story of how Chugga got to live in his new house, which he tells in Episode 10. He got it by having his Website/YouTube username coming up on [=YouTube=] search before [[MemeticBadass Chuck]] [[Creator/ChuckNorris Norris]]. |
| 153 | * In Episode 14, almost a minute in, Chugga rolled all the way to the entrance of Snowhead Temple '''''in one freaking attempt'''''. |
| 154 | ** And in Episode 19, he did it again with the ''Goron race''! |
| 155 | * During an episode of the Great Bay Temple, Chugga brings up how everybody seemed to hate Navi from ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]''. He then follows this up by defending Navi, ''big time,'' explaining why Link would actually want to find her. Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}. |
| 156 | * Normally in ''Majora's Mask'', just putting the Giant's Mask on and [[CurbStompBattle curbstomping]] Twinmold's ass is cool. However, before (and during) the battle with Twinmold, Chugga is giving his theory of how Majora's Mask resembles the stages of Link's maturity and growing up [[note]] really small as a Deku and not being able to do much, a little bigger as Link but the world still being gigantic, more powerful as Darmani and the world not seeming as big, and being in a relationship as Mikau with the world seeming even smaller[[/note]]. This builds up to him reaching 'the last stage' and becoming a giant. The dramatic buildup and ensuing CurbStompBattle (in his favour!) turns this into an awesome moment. |
| 157 | * ''Finally'' completing the Clock Town Archery game (he failed every attempt in his first round of attempts some episodes earlier) in the second round of attempts...''in only two tries''. |
| 158 | --> YEAH! SECOND TRY! PERFECT! SUCK IT! SUCK IT! IF THERE WAS A TEABAG FUNCTION IN THIS GAME, I WOULD USE IT RIGHT NOW, SUCK IT! YEAH! It only took 20 of my Rupees net-wise! GIMME MY FRICKIN' PIECE OF HEART, I'M OUTTA HERE, SCREW YOU, GOOD DAY SIR! [[Funny/ChuggaaconroyTheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask I'M WILLY WONKA!]] |
| 159 | * He not only defeated the final boss easily without using masks (the first time around), he got some Crowning Moments of Funny in there as well. And when he does it again using the Fierce Deity's Mask, he makes Majora look like a joke. How's that for NightmareRetardant? |
| 160 | * His playthrough of all the boss fights using the Fierce Deity's Mask has gotten over one million views ''in only a month''. |
| 161 | [[/folder]] |
| 162 | |
| 163 | [[folder:Pokémon Emerald]] |
| 164 | * In the very first episode, May manages something that Gary and Eyan couldn't: beating Emile on the first battle. |
| 165 | * His explanation of how Wurmple evolution is, in fact, random. Loads of ShownTheirWork right there. |
| 166 | * Not too special in terms of game mechanics, but Moegami's evolution into Combusken happens after he beats the Aqua Grunt holding Peeko hostage. Translating something like that into [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries the anime]], it can come off as a BigDamnHeroes moment. |
| 167 | ** Later in the same episode, Lombre (later, Kappa) almost manages to take out May's Torkoal despite the massive disadvantage. |
| 168 | * When Brawly's Makuhita has Chugga up aganist a wall with all but one Pokémon (Slavinator the Zigzagoon) defeated, he sends it out, not expecting much. The poison left behind by Acooltent (Tentacool) does the enemy in, giving that Pokémon the victory by not even doing anything. Slavinator grew ''four levels'' as a result of all the experience he gained! Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}. Chugga claims it as his greatest battle ever. |
| 169 | * Acooltent gets hit by an electric attack from Wattson's Manectric and survives ''with only one HP left''. |
| 170 | ** From the same episode, Teddy (Vigoroth) survives a Self-Destruct from Voltorb with ''4 HP''. And she wasn't even at full health at the time, meaning she could take just as much punishment. |
| 171 | * TEDDY + Strength = OneHitKO. ''Almost every time.'' And now that it's a Slaking with Hyper Beam... |
| 172 | * Altair the Swablu's debut battle involves him taking a Rock Slide without fainting. |
| 173 | * Acooltent once again surviving an attack with little HP. This time, from a Magma Grunt's Numel using Magnitude. He tanked an attack that he wasn't built for! |
| 174 | * Altair fighting a ClimaxBoss against Maxie's Zubat. It doesn't seem like much, but he's fighting Maxie's last Pokémon at the time, [[ClimacticVolcanoBackdrop atop a volcano]], and they're ''both'' Flying types meaning a HighAltitudeBattle was a possibility. That, and they both put up a pretty spectacular fight. |
| 175 | * Acooltent [[TookALevelInBadass taking a level in badass]] after learning Bubble Beam. He even got to finish off Flannery's Torkoal despite Sunny Day being active, and survived a Body Slam with 11 HP left. |
| 176 | * The fight against Norman has quite a few of these, including Moegami powering through confusion to defeat Spinda, and Teddy beating Vigoroth one-on-one. The crowner, however, happens to be against Slaking; both Acooltent ''and'' Altair managed to pull their own, the former making it hit itself after fainting, and the latter hanging on to finish it thanks to Steel Wing boosting his already somewhat beefy defense. If Linoone wasn't the only one left, Altair would have won the battle right then and there. |
| 177 | * Acooltent manages yet ''another'' "barely survived for a win" moment against a Machoke's Revenge. |
| 178 | * Chugga sends out Moegami in the Verdanturf battle tent. He's unable to use items to heal, his defense is lowered twice, he's under Wrap, and he's confused AND attracted... but he manages to take out his enemy with one hit from Double Kick. |
| 179 | ** For the Fallarbor Town tent, Teddy sweeps the entire tournament ''on her own.'' At least, on the second attempt. |
| 180 | * An underrated one: after Chugga has Kappa use Fake Out on an Aqua Grunt's Zubat, it shrugs it off because Chugga forgot they have Inner Focus for their ability. It then uses Confuse Ray and utterly whales on him. One more Wing Attack would have beaten Kappa. At the last possible moment, he snaps out of confusion and defeats the Zubat with Ice beam. |
| 181 | * His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VyDE6XsJbU#t=8m30s battle]] with [[ThatOneBoss Winona]]. ''Every single Pokémon on Chugga's team'' (except Moegami) pitches in to claim an impressive victory. Heck, his Absol lands the final blow of the fight. The Absol he caught ''only one episode beforehand''. Already cementing its place in the roster. |
| 182 | * Pandora, his Absol that is mentioned in the above entry, destroyed the first 2 Elite Four members. It took out all but 1 Pokémon of the first member, and all the Pokémon of the second one. [[CurbStompBattle Without taking damage.]] And then he manages to dole out an epic TakeThat to all to people who were telling him Pandora didn't have a place on his team. |
| 183 | * He caught Groudon with A NEST BALL and Kyogre with a Net Ball. |
| 184 | ** And then he does it '''again''' with Latias in ANOTHER NEST BALL. At FULL HEALTH. |
| 185 | ** To those of you who don't understand why catching Latias and Groudon in Nest Balls is a reason to celebrate (and for Chuggaconroy's voice to go as high as it did): What exactly are the chances of it happening? ''Less than 1%''. |
| 186 | * The epic battle with Steven at the end. |

| 188 | |
| 189 | [[folder:Super Paper Mario]] |
| 190 | * His first level up is to use [[PlayingWithFire Fire Burst]] on a whole bunch of [[TheGoomba Squiglets]]. |
| 191 | ** Then a similar instance in Chapter 3, where he uses [[ShockAndAwe a lightning bolt]] to blast a bunch of Blomebas. |
| 192 | * Whenever he completes a chapter of this game, he shouted "YOU'VE GOT A PURE HEART!" in the same vein as "[[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor YOU'VE GOT A CRYSTAL STAR!]]", from three years beforehand. It just feels right. |
| 193 | * Him beating Shadoo and only getting hit ONCE. Plus, all he did to win was stand in a corner and use Bowser's Fire Breath constantly, while Shadoo [[ArtificialStupidity kept running into it and hurting himself]]. |
| 194 | [[/folder]] |
| 195 | |
| 196 | [[folder:Ōkamiden]] |
| 197 | * How is this LP awesome? ''VideoGame/{{Okamiden}}'' is a Platform/NintendoDS game, but he manages to record in high quality. How? ''[[https://twitter.com/chuggaaconroy/status/233324469924536320 He built his own recording device for the DS just to let's play Ōkamiden.]]'' |
| 198 | * Getting a perfect score on [[ThatOneBoss King Fury]]. [[BossRush TWICE]]. |
| 199 | [[/folder]] |
| 200 | |
| 201 | [[folder:Kirby’s Epic Yarn]] |
| 202 | * In Episode 5: Chugga listing off the massive number of games that use [[ShiftingSandLand the desert]] as their second level/world. |
| 203 | --> "I mean, [[BlatantLies there's not that many examples]]. I mean, there's only ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'', ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast Link to the Past]]'', ''VideoGame/PaperMario'', ''[[VideoGame/Kirby64TheCrystalShards Kirby 64]]'', ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong64'', ''[[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Banjo-Tooie]]'', ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'', ''VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheMinishCap Minish Cap]]'', ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Twilight Princess]]'', ''[[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic next-gen]]'', ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros'', ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii'', ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamLand'', ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2'', ''VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar'', ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosU'', and of course, [[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn this game]]. |
| 204 | * In Episode 20, Chugga finishes one level with a massive streak of 592 beads. |
| 205 | [[/folder]] |
| 206 | |
| 207 | [[folder:Pokémon Colosseum]] |
| 208 | * In Episode 7, Chugga ''finally'' enters a battle tournament. In it, the [[ArtificialStupidity AI attacks Misdreavus with Normal-type moves, and doesn't use moves that would KO it.]] Chugga then decides to make Misdreavus a permanent member of his team. |
| 209 | * Episode 16 has the mother of all dick moves from an admin. On Dakim's side is Camerupt and his Shadow Entei, while Emile has Quagsire and Misdreavus out. Quagsire is about to use Surf to take advantage of Entei's [[MightyGlacier large HP]] so it can be caught, while Misdreavus survives a Fire Blast and lands a Confuse Ray on Camerupt. Camerupt powers through it and uses ''Earthquake'', which brings Entei to yellow health. Emile is baffled by the decision [[OhCrap until Quagsire's turn comes up and he destroys Entei]]. After a FreakOut, he then admits it was a smart move on Dakim's part. |
| 210 | * Taking on the Internet and winning with regards to Illumise's pronunciation. Doubles as a [[Funny/ChuggaaconroyPokemonColosseum Funny Moment]]. |
| 211 | * After three failed captures of the previous Shadow Pokémon of the Bosses in Pokémon Colosseum, be it his laziness to get more Great Balls (Sudowoodo), ArtificialStupidity with a mix of TemptingFate (Entei) or the Shadow Pokémon knocking itself out (Suicune)... Chugga FINALLY manages to capture the toughest of the Boss Pokémon bar the Final Boss' Shadow Pokémon: Raikou... and did it quickly with few used Ultra Balls to boot. |
| 212 | * After failing once to beat Miror B. off-camera, he tries again and initially it goes badly again, but he comes BackFromTheBrink with a clever use of tactics that even uses the "It doesn't affect Misdreavus" RunningGag. |
| 213 | * Chugga encountered a Shadow Delibird and had problems catching it after having little trouble with snagging legendaries from bosses. He was down to only a Poké Ball and managed to catch it successfully. |
| 214 | ** That and he ordered his Forretress to use Explosion which surely would of KO'ed Delibird had the Poké Ball not succeeded. |
| 215 | * Catching Tropius at nearly full health with a Great Ball ''on the first try.'' |
| 216 | --> "Come on, I've gotten luckier than this in [=LPs=]! I've gotten [[CallBack Groudon at like full health in a Nest Ball!]] I can do this! I can do it! You guys gotta believe in me - *ball starts shaking* One! Two! THREE! *Tropius is caught* OH MY GOD!" |
| 217 | ** This is later subverted in the 3rd bonus episode, when he points out that Tropius has a catch rate of 200, making it far easier to catch than the other Shadow Pokémon he's been facing. |
| 218 | * He's nervous about battling Nascour because Nascour has Pokémon in the mid-50's and Chugga has Lvl. 48-50 Pokémon. His Saikou and Corona take out three Pokémon (Walrein, Gardevoir, and Blaziken) in the fight alone. The other two (Xatu and Dusclops) are downed by Affection and Marshall. And he catches Nascour's Metagross in only three tries. |
| 219 | * His battle with Evice tops even the Nascour battle. Evice's Slowking manages to use Skill Swap and even before that Corona was beaten in one hit by Earthquake. Then when Salamence comes out Walnut poisons it and eventually uses Explosion to kill it when it's at near full health. Eventually it comes down to Marshall and Munchkin vs Evice's last two Pokémon and Munchkin goes down in one hit from Machamp. [[DarkestHour And when Marshall fails to defeat Machamp and a Reflect set up earlier in the match ends]]... [[ArtificialStupidity Evice uses two X Attacks]], which allows Marshall to take down Machamp and to finish the battle he catches Tyranitar in the Master Ball. |
| 220 | ** It's [[FridgeBrilliance even more amazing]] if you remember what he says about Marshall's pre-evolved form Wooper. "If you can smile like that and have no arms, you are truly a king among kings." Well Marshall the Quagsire truly ''is'' the king among kings for being the last one to stand against Evice's strongest Pokémon! |
| 221 | * Emile's first time beating Evice as a child. According to the story, it was his seventh attempt and both of them had one Pokémon left. He thought he was going to lose and was so frustrated he threw the controller at the wall. The A button was hit twice as it bounced onto the ground, resulting in a critical attack that finished Evice off. |

| 227 | [[folder:Super Mario 64 DS]] |
| 228 | * Before the abolishing of annotations, the [[https://dev.invidio.us/watch?v=6Uwd5w1AwYU&iv_load_policy=1 Interactive]] [[https://dev.invidio.us/watch?v=FyL9D01Z9fw&iv_load_policy=1 Menu]] (with said annotations preserved) Chugga made for his ''[[VideoGame/SuperMario64 Super Mario 64 DS]]'' LP definitely qualifies under this. Bear in mind, this not only took Chugga a couple months to make, but during that time he still was recording stuff for ''Pokémon Colosseum'', was going to conventions and working on the next [[LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys Thrown Controllers]] panel, and getting ready to record footage for both LetsPlays going on right now. All this just shows how dedicated Chugga truly is to his work, and [[Heartwarming/{{Chuggaaconroy}} just how much he cares about his fanbase]]. |
| 229 | ** He made [[https://dev.invidio.us/watch?v=G2Rpurw8WG0&iv_load_policy=1 similar]] [[https://dev.invidio.us/watch?v=MlztVaIStuM&iv_load_policy=1 menus]] for his ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'' and ''[[VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy Super Luigi Galaxy]]'' LP's. |
| 230 | * His second bonus video has him beating LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun three times out of four rounds. LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun's one victory would also count. |
| 231 | [[/folder]] |
| 232 | |
| 233 | [[folder:Kid Icarus Uprising]] |
| 234 | * Chugga managing to survive Dark Pit's stage (Chapter 6) while in ''crisis mode''. |
| 235 | * Beating the final chapter on 9.0 for the first time in his life. In Crisis Mode. On camera. On his first take. '''Without dying.''' |
| 236 | ** Even the way he started this chapter is awesome (and doubles as [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Crowning Moment of Funny]]). He entered difficulty select screen with default level of 5.3 (on a 0.0-9.0 scale) and said that this is a fair challenge and he's glad that this isn't higher, since he's never beaten this level on max difficulty. And then... |
| 237 | --> "Or rather, that's what I would be saying, if I wasn't saying... <pulls slider to 9.0> '''''[[BringIt BRING IT]] [[NoIndoorVoice ON!!!]]'''''" |
| 238 | * The fact that he managed to gather every single ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' AR card save for two of them is pretty impressive. |
| 239 | ** And now thanks to an anonymous source, he has now revealed the idols for the non-existent cards 405 and 411. |

| 246 | * The reveal at the end of Day 40. Chugga only accomplished half of his idea for the LP; as 2014 goes on, he'll return to Palette to showcase holidays. special visitors, etc. The first of the holidays is New Year's Day, meaning the very next day. |
| 247 | [[/folder]] |
| 248 | |
| 249 | [[folder:Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] |
| 250 | * Not exactly one for Chugga, but still significantly awesome. In the twenty-fifth episode, he battles Rider Willie, a Zigzagoon trainer who serves as a player's very first Orre opponent in ''Colosseum''. Willie actually put up a good fight against the nigh-unbeatable Chugga, actually causing faints and averting the RunningGag of "Billy Bob takes one damage." Shows just how powerful he's gotten in the last five (in-universe) years. |
| 251 | * Gadzooks the Zangoose is the one to KO Ardos' Alakazam, the very same Alakazam that defeated it as a Shadow Pokémon. |
| 252 | * In the Finale of ''Pokémon XD'', Chugga managed to snag ''6 out of 7'' of [[FinalBoss Greevil's]] Shadow Pokémon in one attempt. This includes Shadow Lugia, which he caught ''without the Master Ball.'' And the one he missed? Articuno, only due to an unlucky critical hit. Made even more amazing in that he didn't use a single Shadow Pokémon of his own, so he had to do that while all Greevil's attacks were Super Effective on his team. |
| 253 | ** And the one he didn't snag? In the rematch, he captures it with the FIRST BALL. |
| 254 | --> "Ladies and gentlemen, my luck." |
| 255 | ** He said that as a kid, he always snagged all 7 in one go, and wondered why anyone would think it was so hard. |
| 256 | [[/folder]] |
| 257 | |
| 258 | [[folder:Xenoblade Chronicles]] |
| 259 | * For his LP of ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'' Emile has tracked down ''thirty copies'' of this incredibly hard to find game, including four factory sealed copies, and will be giving them away to 30 lucky viewers. |
| 260 | ** The very fact that he's actually Let's Play-ing this game, and going for [[OneHundredPercentCompletion 100% Completion]] like he usually does. From Part 1 he says he'll be showing ''every sidequest.'' Anyone who's played the game will know just how utterly ''massive'' that task is. Those who haven't are in for a treat. |
| 261 | ** Also, his planning of absolutely everything down to the last detail. He replayed and recorded the game [[https://twitter.com/chuggaaconroy/status/489287357531951104 multiple times]] in advance to show off all the alternate quest options - which, as the above already states, is a ''massive'' task. Something even crazier is his rewatching of [[https://twitter.com/chuggaaconroy/status/491727303177961472 every]] [[https://twitter.com/chuggaaconroy/status/491727335851577346 cutscene]] beforehand to determine which weather was best for each, and he did that to preserve the best atmosphere portrayed by the story and setting. That is a ridiculously awesome amount of determination. |
| 262 | *** For those not aware, weather in the game is 90% cosmetic, changes at its own whim, and the only way the player can influence it is messing with the in-universe game clock and hoping for the best. And the game considers 24 hours forward or back as no adjustment, so getting the time and the weather right to stage each cutscene must have been incredibly tedious at times. All just to give the views the best experience possible. |
| 263 | * The battle against the Glacier Acon in episode 52. Dunban did not have an Anti-Mechon weapon, meaning he could only deal damage when the Glacier Acon (which was a Mechon) was Toppled. To add to this, Chugga (playing as Reyn) got incapacitated before half a minute passed. But after getting revived, he still managed to win by doing a Chain Attack which let him attack ''10 times in a row'', inflicting huge damage and still leaving the Glacier Acon helpless after all of it was over. |
| 264 | * The battle against Disciple Lorithia in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGaAKBPx95g Episode 96]] is truly a sight to behold. Not only does he take down [[ThatOneBoss one of the hardest story bosses]] [[CurbStompBattle with ease]], he ends it with a Chain Attack and a triumphant (if, admittedly, vengeful) cry of "SUMMON BOLT!!". |
| 265 | * In episode 98, he has a hard time against Dragon King Alcar. All party members have very low health, Shulk is dead from spike damage, and a predicted fatal attack is going straight for Riki. In a clutch victory, Riki saves everyone by finishing it off with Freezinate and boldly proclaims "Riki protect future of sidekicks!". Chugga is left speechless. |
| 266 | * So, by episode 115, with the story wrapped up, ''every single sidequest in the world'' completed, and Colony 6 rebuilt, surely that's the end of the let's play, right? ''Wrong.'' Chugga posted episode 116, titled 'Forgotten Memories', as a rundown of all the 'glitch' items in the game, as well as showing off a whole DummiedOut section of the game (Bionis' shoulder). And he's still not even done! He talked on twitter and in the video about the fact that for his final episode, he wants to defeat every superboss, ''and'' show ''every single unique monster in the game'', so that people playing the game themselves can find them easily. Chugga is AMAZINGLY dedicated to giving Xenoblade Chronicles a proper sendoff. |
| 267 | ** To top it off, on the very last episode, he finishes all the Heart-To-Hearts, and reads aloud ''Monado: The Secret Files'' with accompanying visuals. Have we emphasized how dedicated this guy is yet? |
| 268 | * Him almost defeating Avalance Abassy with all of his members Talent Arts, then finishing it off with Backslash. |
| 269 | ** And similar to his fight against Disciple Lorithia, he ends off the fight with a triumphant cry of "BACK SLASH!!" |
| 270 | [[/folder]] |
| 271 | |
| 272 | [[folder:Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]] |
| 273 | * In his Let's Play of ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga'', he managed to use Advanced Splash Bros to beat [[ThatOneBoss Queen Bean]] in only three turns! He was just as surprised as we were. |
| 274 | ** In Episode 10 of the same game, Chugga managed to find and beat '''''three''''' [[MetalSlime Gold Beanies]]. |
| 275 | ** In Episode 16, he defeated Cackletta before she could use her doppelganger attack, and in the same episode he took down Popple and Rookie before they could pull of a Bros. Attack! |
| 276 | ** Episode 32: Emile has just barely enough coins to try for Secret Scroll #2, so he decides to be cheap and make a restore point. He didn't need to; he got it on his first attempt! |
| 277 | ** Episode 33: Emile had been having issues with his capture card, so he wasn't able to record episodes as soon as he wanted to. The video that went up was his fourth recording attempt. Bear that in mind as you read this. He attempts the infamous surfing minigame trying to get the second-highest bean prize (two Hoo Beans and two Chuckle Beans) after getting the lowest (one Woo Bean) and third-highest (one Chuckle Bean). He doesn't get it. Instead, he beats the time for the top prize, the Casual Coral. The kicker? He had never gotten the Casual Coral before. After this, he ends up showing off light gravity and Advanced Thunder Bros (which he hadn't been able to for quite some time), and the battle ended with Luigi leveling up. Chugga said this was the game's way of patting him on the back for having to record the video four times. |
| 278 | [[/folder]] |
| 279 | |
| 280 | [[folder:Pikmin 3]] |
| 281 | * Day 15. Chugga managed to defeat the Quaggled Mireclops ''right as the 10 second timer appeared on screen''. |
| 282 | [[/folder]] |
| 283 | |
| 284 | [[folder:Pokémon Platinum]] |
| 285 | * Chugga's first guest: Marriland. |
| 286 | ** Marriland's return after Candice also qualifies as one, and also a [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments CMoH]] when he starts praising Chugga's [=LPing=] skills. |
| 287 | * Both Cleffa and Golbat evolve ''in the same episode''. |
| 288 | * In Episode 20, he finally get his first multiplayer victory. In a double battle against the cast of The Dex. |
| 289 | * After having a [[TheWorfEffect horrible debut upon evolving into Torterra]] due to Crasher Wake's Floatzel [[PowerupLetdown abusing Torterra's X4 weakness to Ice Fang]], Chugga went into the post gym guest Shadypenguin. During their battle Bohdi made up in spade with a PERFECT [[WorfHadTheFlu 4-0 victory streak]]. |
| 290 | --> '''Shady:''' Torterra's broken! Ban him! |
| 291 | * After all that [[BornUnlucky bad luck]] Supernova has had the last few videos, Episode 38 is where [[ThrowTheDogABone it gets a major lucky streak]]: |
| 292 | ** Getting '''''Roar of Time''''' on Metronome! |
| 293 | ** Reaching LV 43 and learning [[ExtraOreDinary Meteor Mash]]. |
| 294 | ** '''Evolving!''' |
| 295 | * In Episode 38, he lost the game audio due to a technical issue, similar to an incident in his ''VideoGame/{{MOTHER 3}}'' LP. So what did he do this time? ''He edited in every single sound effect from soundtrack rips right down to the moves and the sound from bumping into a wall.'' He is THAT dedicated to making sure his viewers have the best experience. |
| 296 | ** Episode 40 reveals a lot was with the help of Yoshiller. Still awesome though. |
| 297 | * Chugga successfully finds a '''Feebas''' in Episode 43. Yeah, the infamously rare [[MagikarpPower Magikarp cousin]]. And he actually caught ''several,'' just to find one with a perfect nature! |
| 298 | * Chugga's Milotic makes her debut in Candice's battle in Episode 45. What's so awesome about it? Milotic was still at '''level 29''', and she defeated a '''Piloswine, which was level 40'''! |
| 299 | ** In the same battle: After getting screwed by bad luck in previous boss battles, Supernova gets to shine in this battle by one-shotting two of Candice's Pokémon. |
| 300 | * Supernova's Metronome became Frenzy Plant. Which [[ScissorsCutsRock was enough to defeat a Golbat]]. |
| 301 | * In one of the most epic finales to any [[BuffySpeak fate-of-the-world-deciding battle,]] it looked like he had lost. Vanity, his last Pokémon (asides from [[TagAlongKid Derpidius]]) had 55 HP left, and was moving last. His opponent's Crobat used Cross Poison... '''and Vanity survived with 4 HP.''' Keep in mind, Vanity was '''4 levels lower''' than Crobat, who was using its insanely high attack stat with a STAB 70 power move ([[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill that had a high chance of critting]]). If that doesn't ensure a spot on his team, nothing does. |
| 302 | * In the very next episode, Chugga's infamous luck strikes again - this time, he captures Giratina, one of the most difficult Pokémon to catch[[note]]it has a catch rate of 3, the lowest possible, and all four of its moves have only 5 PP, meaning that it can very easily run out of moves and Struggle itself to death[[/note]], in a ''Heal Ball'', which has the same chance of a successful catch as ''a regular Poké Ball.'' Just like with Groudon and Latias, the chances of pulling this off were less than 1%. |
| 303 | ** The battle itself is one for Giratina; the legendary EARNS its fearful reputation by giving Chugga an absolutely epic battle, as a fitting finale to the main story arc of the game. |
| 304 | * After the aforementioned Giratina catch, Chugga reveals the sixth intended member of his team (barring the HM Slaves): Dusclops, eventually Dusknoir, a Pokémon he'd been praising for several Let's Plays. He then catches one with an ADAMANT nature, the BEST offensive nature that a Dusclops can have. |
| 305 | * Eidolon's showing against Volkner's Electivire: with the Will-O-Wisp to nerf his opponent's fully physical moveset and the bulk to take even a Thunderpunch, he would've had the battle won if Volkner hadn't used a Full Restore. |
| 306 | ** And later Psythe tanking said burned Electivire's Giga Impact like a champ. |
| 307 | ** Eidolon also shines in the battle against [=JWittz=]. [=JWittz=] has a Houndoom out with Flash Fire, so Eidolon can't use Will-O-Wisp or Fire Punch on it, but it also resists Ice Punch and Shadow Sneak. Chugga decides to take the loss to get a free switch for something better-equipped to face Houndoom, and uses Ice Punch... ''which freezes Houndoom solid for several turns''. Houndoom does eventually thaw out and KO Eidolon, but it was left on almost no health, severely handicapping [=JWittz=]. |
| 308 | * Vanity absolutely [[CurbStompBattle destroys]] Bertha's team without breaking a sweat. |
| 309 | * Acrobat manages to survive Flint's Rapidash's Flare Blitz buffed by Sunny Day. With 10 HP. |
| 310 | * In episode 81, Emile goes on to catch Dialga and Palkia. After a rocky start with Dialga, Emile throws a Luxury Ball with Derpidius on the field. Then he goes onto Palkia, who Chugga catches in less than ''three minutes'' with a Heal Ball, the same as Giratina! Looks like Emile's luck has returned once more. |
| 311 | [[/folder]] |
| 312 | |
| 313 | [[folder:Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]] |
| 314 | * A minor, yet notable one in terms of production. The first time in the game that E. Gadd's calls are interrupted due to poor reception, Chugga wishes he could read it in the way it's displayed, saying that it'd have to be edited (taking a decent amount of time) to achieve the correct effect. For all subsequent instances of the Dual Scream's poor reception, Chugga takes the time to edit the audio of his reading to accomplish the broken sound. |
| 315 | * While it eventually ends in failure, his battle with the Shrewd Possessor goes on to the last playable second due to his early mistakes. Had he made the last shot, he would have beaten the boss within seconds of a game over. |
| 316 | * Doubling as Funny: Much to his surprise, he gets a perfect triple-star rank on mission E-3: A Train to Catch, despite wasting so much time sidetracking for collectibles. The best part is that it was most likely all the money he kept [[WorthlessYellowRocks writing off as useless]] that [[{{Irony}} saved his rank]]. |
| 317 | * Making it through the entire game without getting a single one star rank. |
| 318 | [[/folder]] |
| 319 | |
| 320 | [[folder:Splatoon]] |
| 321 | * The fact that he is going to do an in-depth guide on every weapon in the game. ALL 91 OF THEM. WITH OPTIMAL ABILITIES AND STRATEGY TO BOOT. |
| 322 | * Chugga's skill in the first level. |
| 323 | * Getting a double kill with a splat bomb in the first episode. [[TemptingFate Right after saying that the LP won't be high-level competitive play.]] |
| 324 | * In episode 8, nailing a multiplayer win ''by 0.1%'' thanks to well-placed Inkstrike in the last second. |
| 325 | * In episode 17, winning a match of Tower Control by one point after being killed within one second into overtime. |
| 326 | * LetsPlay/MasaeAnela guest stars in Episodes 19 and 20, and she proves to be almost scarily good at the game. Not only is she an S Rank, she gets insane kill counts per match. Their first Squad Battle in Episode 20 ends in a 0-100 Knockout! |
| 327 | * Chugga wins his team a Splat Zone battle that has been against them the whole time when he manages to take control and maintain it for the last few seconds of the game. |
| 328 | * In Episode 24, Chugga has no enthusiasm for playing the weapon of the day, the Luna Blaster, as he says he's a terrible player with said weapon. A potential guest for the weapon convinced him to play it himself due to his success with the blasters before, and sure enough, Chugga turns out to be pretty good with it. |
| 329 | * In an ironic twist of fate, he reaches S rank in Episode 26 while playing a weapon from his least favorite class (brushes) and on his least favorite stage (Moray Towers). Despite the heavy irony, it's still pretty awesome, due to his efforts in said battle. |
| 330 | * In Episode 27, during a turf war battle, Chugga accidentally jumps into an active Inkstrike. Because he's BornLucky, the timing is so perfect that he takes no damage for it. |
| 331 | ** In the same episode, he mentions his incompetence with Ink Mines, but he successfully splats two foes with them. |
| 332 | [[/folder]] |
| 333 | |
| 334 | [[folder:Skyward Sword]] |
| 335 | * Episode 26: His TheReasonYouSuckSpeech about Impa came off as ''incredibly'' cathartic to those who viewed her as UnintentionallyUnsympathetic. |
| 336 | -->'''Chugga:''' We need to talk, you and I. There's something that a lot of you have been airing grievances over, and I wanna let you know that now that we have seen everything dealing with this, and this whole thing of finding Zelda again has come full circle, I wanna say that [[JustForFun/OneOfUs I am right there with you]]. ...Impa. Freakin' ''Impa''. We show up at the Earth Temple. And, she ends up rescuing Zelda. Great. But then, she's all like, "You were late! Do my words sting?! Let them! You suck as a hero, and you don't even have a place here, and neh neh neh neh neh neh neh!" ...I don't know why I make her sound like Cartman from ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', but hey. I guess that's about the opinion I have ''of'' her. Because, rather than, take us ''with'' her... when, we have a sword, she is ''aware'' of the legend that Zelda is playing a ''part'' in, I might say, we have the sword of the legend; we have ''[[LivingWeapon Fi]]'' with us, so we can prove who we are, rather than take that extra protection and not take any chances, she [[ComplexityAddiction would rather]] proverbially slam the ''door'' in our face with her magical powers, closing the portal, and instead go on without us, just as a slap in the face towards us and for ''no'' other discernible reason, making us go back to Skyloft, place the tablet in there, have- end up in the ''opposite'' end of Lanayru Desert from where we need to go when we could've travelled there in ''four'' seconds flat through that portal, make us go all the way through there, almost get us ''killed'' fighting the army of [[DemonicSpiders Ampilus]] that are out for ''blood'' around there; I don't wa- wish to relive those tra-traumatic memories, but it serves in proving my point. Go through that whole temple, and then, because of ''her'', we are almost ''late'' [[NiceJobBreakingItHero saving them from Ghirahim]], who would've actually gotten his way, had we not gotten there as fast as we did! I know that I dawdle a little bit with [[SidetrackedByTheGoldSaucer my part-time job at the Lumpy Pumpkin]], so maybe it ''was'' my fault that I was late for the first time, but... ''{{no|just no reaction}}''. Would it have ''killed ya[='=]'' to leave the portal open for ''two'' extra seconds?! Oh wait, no! It wouldn't have killed ''you'', '''''IT WOULD HAVE KILLED ZELDA! I'M JUST SAYING!''''' |
| 337 | * Episode 63: His TheReasonYouSuckSpeech about Faron (the Water Dragon)'s sheer {{Designated Hero}}ism and InsaneTrollLogic. |
| 338 | -->'''Chugga:''' Now... ''this'' test. Oh my gosh, [[ThatOneLevel this test]]. So, the Water Dragon is all, "Okay, we need to test you to make sure that you are a hero." Nevermind the fact that you ''saw'' that we have the Master Sword on you, and you're like- your first reaction was, "Oh, I see you're the real deal." Nevermind that, no. So, that's apparently not enough. Nevermind that you ''know'' about Fi, you ''know'' about the Goddess, you know about the events going on in the world right now; none of that matters. You still feel the need to test us about this, because apparently, that is not enough. And your test involves us going around, having to swim ''through'' an area that we have ''already'' gone through ''numerous'' times; we know this place like the back of our hand now. It's not anything new, it's just... it's covered with water, and... has tons and tons of collectibles thrown about all around it. That's all bad, definitely. But, you also consider the fact that our first dealing with this character involved us, I dunno, ''[[UngratefulBastard saving her life]]''?! We did not leave her there to die, we instead went through the first dungeon ''again'' to find her the Sacred Water that we needed, and on top of saving her life, we also had saved her forest before from Ghirahim... and ''also'' saved the lake that she does her ruling from over these woods! Again, that is apparently not enough for the Water Dragon. And with that was our last dealing with her, unless you count the time that we had to ''backtrack'' in order to get that Water Basin from her, you realize that ''every'' dealing we have ever had with this character is ''{{padding}}''. No two ways about it. Had to go through the first dungeon again, have to go through this area again; saving your life is not enough to just ''give us'' the Song of the Hero. And, for what?! This test has been set up for us by flooding the entire woods to get rid of the monsters. ...There's the fact that ''all'' of these trees are [[InferredHolocaust going to die]]; they've been overwatered. Y'know, you ever think about that. You've made all the [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter Kikwis]], who worship you, by the way, ''completely'' [[CollateralDamage homeless]], so you're an absolute ''[[JerkassGods terrible]]'' deity to them. And, people tell me that I'm very meticulous when researching these games, and just kinda knowing things about 'em, and stuff like that, and the things that I think to go, y'know, find out, and all that. [...] People tell me that I'm meticulous about that. Well, I feel ''so'' passionately about my disdain for the Water Dragon, and about how ''everything'' she makes you do is padding, that I have actually gone out of my way to count that before she flooded these woods, they were inhabited with 3 Moblins, 6 Blue Bokoblins, and 2 ''Red'' Bokoblins. Which, by the way, we saw that one of those Blue Bokoblins was ''still'' alive on that tree, the two Red Bokoblins were, and a ''new'' one had actually joined their ranks. So... you ''thought'' that [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill this was]] the ''best'' way to kill ''11'' enemies, and this was the way to treat the woods- not only the woods that you're supposed to be protecting, but the Kikwis that worship you? ...All because, in your own words, "it was the ''easiest'' way to do it"? ''[[{{Beat}} (beat)]]'' This is the ''biggest'' load of bull I have ever seen from ''any'' deity in my entire time doing these things! And that's [[GodIsEvil saying a lot]], because I've played ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade|Chronicles 1}}''. |

| 341 | [[folder:Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]] |
| 342 | * Much like Queen Bean from Superstar Saga, Emile managed to beat [[ThatOneBoss Bowser]] in three turns. |
| 343 | * Chuggaa made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lCrOgy8NUc the first complete bean spot walkthrough in existence]]. |
| 344 | [[/folder]] |
| 345 | |
| 346 | [[folder:Pokémon Black and White]] |
| 347 | * Ottawa the Oshawott soloing most of the first part of the game (with the exception of Cilan's Pansage) up to the second rematch with Cheren. At that point, she manages to take out his Snivy with a critical Tackle, learn Razor Shell, and then evolve into Dewott in short order. |
| 348 | ** Heck, just about everything about [[BornLucky Ottawa]] is this; she's a female starter, which is incredibly rare, has a Docile nature meaning her stats won't be higher ''or'' lower, and she's landed plenty of crits in the beginning already, much to Emile's pleasant surprise. |
| 349 | ** Fans crunched the numbers on Ottawa's stats. Pretty much all of her stats are at least ''good'' if not great, but the real star is her Special Attack IV: she has a 31 in that stat, ''which is the highest it can be''. Lucky does not even begin to cover it. |
| 350 | ** It doesn't stop there. She gets IV checked in Ep. 60, and not only is her Sp. Atk confirmed to have the 31, it's revealed her Atk stat ''also has the 31.'' A slouch she is not. |
| 351 | * Speaking of Pansage, [[ButtMonkey 721st the Pansear]] gets one by winning a pretty close match against him. Despite the ElementalRockPaperScissors, Pansage was still four levels higher, and yet 721st still won. It was enough to earn Emile's respect, and [[ThrowTheDogABone even made him reconsider his nickname]] (specifically, to [[VideoGame/Mother3 Salsa]]). |
| 352 | * Getting to K.O. Cheren's Snivy/Servine in ''four different matches'' with crits is nothing short of very good luck for Ottawa. |
| 353 | ** The fourth one deserves special mention; Ottawa almost got taken out by a Leaf Tornado, and then proceeded to [[TakingYouWithMe finish him with a Fury Cutter before Sandstorm took out its remaining health]]. |
| 354 | * Haywire the Blitzle had ''amazing'' luck with her match against Lenora's Herdier, scoring a flawless K.O. against it thanks to her paralysing it and it being too crippled from paralysis to fight back, and allowed Ottawa to get the win by knocking down Lenora's Watchog down to half health. To clarify how profound this moment is, Lenora is pretty much the [[ThatOneBoss Whitney]] of ''Black and White'', and Chugga was suitably concerned, to the point that he spent most of the preceding episode catching a Throh to defeat her, which he didn't even need. |
| 355 | * Terrabite the Sandile soloing Bianca north of Castelia City thanks to its [[KillStreak Moxie ability]]. It even took out Pansage and Pignite, both of which had a type advantage over it, and the latter was taken out by ''Sand Tomb'' of all moves.[[note]]For those unaware, Sand Tomb is the ground-type equivalent to Wrap with as much power as a pre Gen V Tackle.[[/note]] |
| 356 | ** Shortly after that, he proceeds to take down Cheren's Liepard and Panpour all by himself. He even took a Water Gun without any issue. |
| 357 | * He used Roc the Archen against Elesa just for the heck of it (keep in mind, Haywire and Terrabite had just recently evolved into Zebstrika and Krokorok respectively). And then he took out an [[GoddamnBats Emolga]] with a critical Ancient Power and got an all-stat increase on the first turn. He then proceeded to beat her other two Pokémon in one turn each, with her strongest (Zebstrika) being hit with another critical. Compounding it further is that Roc was an unevolved Pokémon with the hindering Defeatist ability, going against an entire gym leader's team of which one was fully evolved, and they all had a type advantage over him. Suddenly, [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries Ash's]] [[DavidVersusGoliath methods]] [[ScissorsCutsRock of]] [[SuccessThroughInsanity winning]] don't seem too [[StealthPun Farfetch'd]]. |
| 358 | * Haywire's first major battle as a Zebstrika involves her taking on Cheren's entire post-Nimbasa team by herself. As a bonus, her type combined with Flame Charge gave her an edge against 3/4 of his Pokémon. Definitely a welcome change of pace from her getting upstaged by her reptilian comrade. |
| 359 | ** Before that, she took on Hiker Andy's Boldore and fared quite well against it. |
| 360 | * On Whitlea's end, [=GoldenPant=] the Scraggy carrying the Rotation Battle against Charles' team and getting the final blow on each Pokémon was pretty impressive. |
| 361 | * Ottawa's back in the spotlight with a bang. Soloing the entire Driftveil gym and one-shotting Clay's Krokorok aren't too surprising considering the type advantage, but she managed to take out the much faster and stronger Excadrill without taking any damage. Excadrill probably would have hit hard with its Hone Claws boosted moves, had Ottawa not blindsided it with her newly learned [[ActionInitiative Aqua Jet]]. |
| 362 | * Haywire followed suit in Chargestone Cave, soloing N's team while taking out the majority of them with critical hits despite the fact that she wasn't carrying her usual Scope Lens to up her critical hit chance (instead going for the Lucky Egg to boost her experience). |
| 363 | * Ottawa finally evolves into Samurott (after being ''so'' close to leveling up the prior episode, too) by taking out a Boldore and having a close match with a Gurdurr. Watching a starter reach her final stage has never felt so good! |
| 364 | ** Chugga then proceeds to show off Ottawa's newfound power by [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill having her use Razor Shell on a Minccino]]! |
| 365 | * Hilbert the Trubbish's evolution into Garbodor may have come rather awkwardly, but at least his debut battle as such is a success. He easily tanks a Swoobat, which holds a type advantage over him, managing to do a great deal of damage with Sludge Bomb in the process. He may have been healed up, but [[CurbStompBattle the rest of the battle]] pretty much showed that was unnecessary. |
| 366 | * One for ''[[TheRival Cheren's]]'' team, of all things: after Chugga gets his Jet Badge, his Pokémon manage to take out Hilbert, Roc ''and'' Ottawa due to Chugga not accounting for stat differences, as well as the Hail condition and Cheren's choice of Hold Items. And as a fun case of irony, it's his ''[[FragileSpeedster Liepard]]'' that defeats Ottawa due to Chugga getting cocky about her speed stat, [[ThrowTheDogABone netting him the first clean victory against the water-type]], followed by [[{{Determinator}} him staying standing against Terrabite for a surprisingly long time]]. [[CharacterDevelopment Cheren really is growing as a trainer, after all.]] |
| 367 | ** Before that even, [[OffscreenMomentOfAwesome Cheren apparently managed to defeat]] [[BigCreepyCrawlies Burgh]], [[ShockAndAwe Elesa]] and [[BlowYouAway Skyla]] with a team that was ''horribly'' matched for said battles (half of his team would be especially weak to the former two, and the rest of his Pokémon would have had an unremarkable performance at best). Chugga himself [[LampshadeHanging lampshades this]]. |
| 368 | ** He then manages to pull the same thing with [[AnIcePerson Brycen]] and [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Iris]]. No wonder the guy becomes a Gym Leader in [[VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 the sequel]]! |
| 369 | ** When fighting Blair in Route 10, Cheren's Serperior swept through Chugga's team. [[TookALevelInBadass Quite a leap from that Snivy that kept fainting from Ottawa's criticals, eh?]] |
| 370 | * Chugga catching [[OlympusMons Cobalion]] in only ''one attempt'' and ''three balls'' is nothing short of this, even if [[AntiClimaxBoss Chugga himself didn't feel the same way]]. It also finally gives Hilbert his well-needed spotlight for tanking such a strong Pokémon. And they didn't need Haywire to paralyze him! |
| 371 | ** The artwork for the Sword of Justice in question, once again drawn by LetsPlay/MasaeAnela, is also pretty badass as it shows him bravely lighting the way in a dark cave like TheLeader he is. |
| 372 | ** He follows that up the next episode by catching Virizion with ''Necessity, a [[CantCatchUp Tranquill]],'' out on the field. |
| 373 | ** He catches the third and final member of the trio, Terrakion, just as easily. In fact, the only reason it took him two tries was because Ottawa defeated Terrakion in one shot. |
| 374 | * Hilbert fights yet ''another'' Swoobat by virtue of being sent out by accident. He utterly destroys it with a critical Sludge Bomb. |
| 375 | * This moment is a twofold one. Chugga decided to explore Twist Mountain to get a Cryogonal, a MetalSlime with only a 3% chance of appearing when it's not Winter, for his sixth slot. Within five encounters, he ran into it; this is the first awesome moment. The second one is that the Cryogonal put up much more of a fight than ''most of the OlympusMons.'' |
| 376 | ** Another awesome moment comes against Brycen, where the Cryogonal (now named Hex) takes a critical Slash from his [[MightyGlacier Beartic]] with only ''6 HP'' before being able to take it down. Keep in mind that [[SquishyWizard Cryogonal as a species has utterly terrible defense]], and yet he still took it. Also counts as a moment for the [[AwesomeButImpractical Cubchoo line]] due to ''almost'' getting a victory on one of Emile's Pokémon. |
| 377 | * Hilbert ''almost'' managed to beat Bianca's Musharna due to the Stockpiles set up earlier. We say ''almost'' because Bianca used a Full Restore on it and forced a switch to Terrabite. |
| 378 | ** Thankfully, he managed a moment by [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomping]] Biker Morgan's Bouffalant, which Emile himself admitted was quite a strong Pokémon. |
| 379 | ** When Emile defeats the Black Empoleon gang, he leads with Hilbert, causing the gang to rename themselves the "Black Garbodor". While this is more funny than anything else, Emile portrays it in-universe as Hilbert becoming ''[[TookALevelInBadass the leader of the gang]]''. Not bad for a literal pile of trash. |
| 380 | * The fight against Iris is pretty chock-full of these moments from just about every member of the team involved (except for Terrabite, sadly), truly showing Emile's team synergy that he built up so much in past episodes. |
| 381 | ** Roc starts off hitting Fraxure pretty dang hard with his newly learned U-Turn to make a switch. |
| 382 | ** Hilbert manages to defeat Fraxure with a Sludge Bomb because it chose to try and buff up with Dragon Dance. He even tanks a few hits from Druddigon and poisons it before Dragon Tail forces a switch to Ottawa. |
| 383 | ** Even though Iris uses a Hyper Potion on Druddigon, Ottawa manages to two-shot it with a poison-assisted Megahorn. She then does a good deal of damage before Dragon Tail forces a switch out to Haywire. |
| 384 | ** Haywire doesn't get much in, but she does manage to paralyze Haxorus with Thunder Wave and at least get a Charge Beam in before getting knocked out. |
| 385 | ** Finally, Hex is sent out. Despite his nature crippling his special attack, and Iris using another Hyper Potion, Hex manages to take Haxorus out with a single Ice Beam. Even if it didn't one-shot, Haxorus' paralyzed status would have made it a sitting duck anyway. |
| 386 | * Meanwhile in Black, " [[TheUnpronounceable :(]] " the LV 43 female Beartic [[CurbStompBattle swept]] Drayden's entire team with Icicle Crash, raising Emile's opinion of the family a bit. |
| 387 | * Shauntal of the Elite Four gets one for actually putting up a decent fight against Emile's team due to her Pokémon barely surviving hits from them. This is all in spite of Emile having a pretty good strategy against her. Bonus points go to Cofagrigus surviving a Flying Gem-boosted Acrobatics from Roc and using Will-O-Wisp to keep Emile busy long enough for a Full Restore, and Chandelure outspeeding Ottawa and taking her out with a critical Shadow Ball. She's more than worthy of her title after that. |
| 388 | ** Before that, Terrabite managing to beat down all of Caitlin's team even when Sigilyph hit him with an Ice Beam. |
| 389 | ** Grimsley's Bisharp gets one for delivering a CurbStompBattle to Hilbert and Haywire, the latter especially due to surviving a critical hit with low health. |
| 390 | *** Shortly after, Ottawa misses a Megahorn on Krookodile and gets knocked to 13 HP. With no other option, Emile has Ottawa go for Aqua Jet for chip damage...which then proceeds to OHKO Krookodile with a crit. |
| 391 | ---> '''CHIP DAMAGE, MY ASS!''' |
| 392 | ** Marshal gets a near-cinematic moment at the end of his fight. With only a badly poisoned Mienshao left, he declares that this could be the last move and that he'll put everything into it. Emile jokes that Haywire will probably take Mienshao out with one hit, only for Mienshao to survive on a sliver and ''OHKO Haywire with a non-critical Jump Kick'' before succumbing to the poison, thus denying Emile's team the experience for defeating it. |
| 393 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAJMnPepu5M The entire final battles with N and Ghetsis]]. These need to be seen to be believed, but for a recap, here's the outcome: |
| 394 | ** To start off, Zekrom becomes the temporary replacement for Haywire and manages to deliver a downright brutal beat-down to Reshiram. Hex then manages to at least whittle down Vanilluxe enough for Terrabite to finish it with Brick Break, who then proceeds to sweep the floor with the rest of N's team up to Archeops. At that point, Roc is able to just destroy it with a Rock Slide. |
| 395 | ** Ghetsis, meanwhile, can't just be described in one paragraph; his fight needs an entire damn step-by-step procedure as both sides have just as much advantages as they have disadvantages. Emile even says it's the most intense final battle he's ever had. |
| 396 | *** To start, Emile learns from his fight with Shauntal and goes to Terrabite instead of Roc, using the STAB Crunch to take out Cofagrigus and use up one of Ghetsis' Full Restores. |
| 397 | *** Ghetsis then immediately goes to '''''[[TheDreaded HYDREIGON]]''''' and destroys Terrabite right away. Hex is sent out, leading to Hydreigon using Fire Blast to take him down, which Hex survives albeit with a burn. Before Hex goes down, he sets up a Light Screen which proves essential to Zekrom taking it out with Dragon Breath. On top of that, he gets Paralysis which allows him to out-speed Hydreigon. |
| 398 | *** Bouffalant proves to be more than a fair challenge, even though he's eventually defeated via a combination of recoil and Hilbert's Rocky Helmet. When Hilbert is sent out for Roc with Emile thinking he would shoot for Earthquake, Ghetsis predicts the switch and uses ''Wild Charge'' to take Roc out in one go. |
| 399 | *** Seismitoad then takes out Hilbert, leaving only Ottawa and Zekrom left. Seismitoad proves to be faster and just barely strong enough to possibly two-shot Ottawa. In a bit of a double-edged sword, Seismitoad uses Rain Dance which powers up both parties' moves. Ottawa barely hangs on from an Earthquake, long enough for Emile to heal up. Thankfully, Seismitoad uses Muddy Water which enables Ottawa to get the victory. |
| 400 | *** Eelektross is sent out, prompting Emile to heal Zekrom who proceeds to finally destroy both of Ghetsis' last Pokémon through a long and harrowing process. Zekrom barely proves stronger and bulkier than Eelektross ''and'' Bisharp, fittingly ending with the Dragon of Ideals indeed being the final hero of the story. |
| 401 | * Chugga catching Volcarona in one Quick Ball. |
| 402 | * Terrabite managed to defeat five members of a difficult post-game team of six all by himself in Challenge Cave that overleveled him by more than five levels each while very narrowly avoiding fainting ''twice''. |
| 403 | * Chugga continuing the chain of anticlimactic legendary captures by catching Kyurem in three balls. Bonus points for Haywire paralyzing it and getting quite a few Thunderbolts in before being one-shot by Dragon Pulse. |
| 404 | ** Even then, it was only ''slightly''. Kyurem still managed to K.O. two of Chugga's Pokémon before going quietly. |
| 405 | * Even though his first fight against Cynthia was a CurbStompBattle on her end, Hilbert managed to beat [[{{Superboss}} Cynthia's Eelektross]] without attacking at all due to a combination of recoil damage from Wild Charge, Hilbert's Rocky Helmet, and healing him at every turn. |
| 406 | * Landorus has the dubious honor of being the ''fifth'' Legendary Pokémon to be caught in very few balls. The count this time is ''five.'' Even though it took out Ottawa, it got caught in an Ultra Ball the minute Terrabite was sent out. |
| 407 | -->'''Chugga:''' WHAT IS MY LUCK!? That was the last Legendary Pokémon for us to fight in all of Unova! [[InopportuneVoiceCracking And I made it look like a joke!]] |
| 408 | ** Because of this, Victini and Tornadus ended up giving the biggest fights out of all the legendaries/mythicals in the entire run, due to the others either being caught in very few balls (Cobalion, Virizion, Terrakion, Kyurem, Landorus), being event exclusive (Meloetta, Keldeo, Genesect), being caught in a Master Ball (Thundurus), or practically given to you in-story (Zekrom/Reshiram). |
| 409 | ** As a bonus, that means Tornadus officially put up a better fight than the ''leader'' of the Forces of Nature/Kami trio/Genies! |
| 410 | * Back in Black, :( the Beartic, now named [[MeaningfulRename :)]], ends up powering through a Purugly's Swagger-induced confusion and hitting it with a boosted Superpower. As a bonus, she snaps out of it right away to at least do some damage to an Espeon. Jaya the Serperior then follows that up by walling a Lapras and Leaf Blading it into fainting. |
| 411 | * [[HeroOfAnotherStory Salsa went from underwhelming fire monkey to the star of Pokémon Musicals all over Unova]], proceeding to earn every regular prop in the entire game. Not bad for the least popular Pokémon species in existence. |
| 412 | * Against Shigeki Morimoto, Hilbert went max Stockpile and managed to take out Liepard, get ''another'' victory on a Swoobat, then narrowly avoid Giga Impact to whittle Zebstrika down with Explosion. Ottawa then adds insult to injury by taking it out with Aqua Jet, followed by surviving an Energy Ball from Simisage with ''5 HP'' and OHKO'ing it with Megahorn. |
| 413 | ** Roc then proceeded to save the team from the Simipour from Hell before finishing Simisear with Rock Slide. |
| 414 | * The final bout against Cheren involves yet ''another'' session of Hilbert walling Liepard, followed by him doing chip damage on Gigalith for Terrabite to finish it off. |
| 415 | ** After that, Serperior buffs himself right up with Coil and survives an Aerial Ace from Terrabite. He then hits with Leaf Storm, [[HereWeGoAgain which almost mirrors the encounter on Route 10]]...except Terrabite survives with ''3 HP'' and [[ScrewDestiny averts that fate]]! |
| 416 | ** After Haywire takes out Simipour, Cheren is quick to send out Haxorus, his new trump card. However, Haywire manages to pull the same trick she did against Iris' Haxorus by paralyzing it and allowing Hex to defeat it and Unfezant with Ice Beam. |
| 417 | * During the Elite Four rematch, Ottawa manages to sweep 5/6 of Grimsley's team by getting a Swords Dance buff and then taking everyone out in 1-2 Waterfalls each. She even takes a Thunder Fang from Drapion while only taking 80 damage (about 1/3 of her health)! |
| 418 | ** On Marshall's end (yet again), Terrabite had just swept through Sawk and Mienshao and gained two Moxie boosts. The next Pokémon sent out is Throh, whom Terrabite hits with Earthquake. Throh ''barely'' holds on and destroys him with an unexpected Superpower. Doesn't stop the rest of the fight from being a CurbStompBattle in Emile's favor, but give the man points for effort! |
| 419 | ** Against Caitlin, Terrabite sweeps her entire team. There is one scary moment where her Sigilyph freezes Terrabite.... only for him to ''instantly'' thaw and continue on the attack! He even does the same to every member of Shauntal's team except for Cofagrigus, surviving an attack from Froslass with 10 HP! |
| 420 | * Even if Emile lost against Alder the first round, it did have some genuinely awesome moments. Hex takes out Accelgor, Escavalier. and Druddigon, Ottawa defeats Volcarona in one hit with Waterfall, and Hilbert manages to [[TakingYouWithMe successfully take Bouffalant down with him]]. Even Alder gets a moment when Volcarona takes out Roc in one hit with a crit Overheat. |
| 421 | * In the final battle against Cynthia, after several Swords Dance boosts and a heal to her burn, [[CurbStompBattle Ottawa manages to sweep all 6 of Cynthia's Pokémon without fainting or taking that much damage]]. Ottawa was born lucky indeed. |
| 422 | ** Spiritomb, Garchomp, and Milotic deserve special mention: the first one set up three Double Teams which Ottawa practically ''ignored entirely,'' the second attacked with Dragon Rush and ''missed,'' and the third used Bulldoze which barely did anything to her! Lucario was the one who did the most damage, and even that's not saying all too much. Eelektross and Braviary never even got to attack ''once.'' Ottawa made [[{{Superboss}} Cynthia's team]] look like a ''joke!'' |

| 425 | [[folder:[=EarthBound=] (Redux)]] |
| 426 | * Episode 22 is awesome the whole way through. Emile shows off the famous "tent glitch" with fantastic and hilarious results. |
| 427 | * Episode 27 - Chugga fights a Musica while explaining that they have a 1/128 chance of dropping a Sudden Guts Pill. [[https://youtu.be/E2xUx-9-9z0?t=15m51s He immediately gets the drop on the first try.]] His reaction is [[BigWhat appropriately]] [[FreakOut loud.]] |
| 428 | * Episode 28 - Emulating Pokey's dad, Emile busts out a perfect, disturbingly realistic maniacal laugh. The coughing at the end is not only genuine, but began EXACTLY when Pokey's dad started coughing! [[https://youtu.be/c8DU-Hanmxg?t=3m34s It must be heard to be believed.]] |
| 429 | * Chugga manages to get Poo's only weapon after fighting ''16'' Starmen Super. |
| 430 | ** The best part about this is that of those 16 Starmen Super, 15 of them were fought by going through the dungeon proper, rather than actively grinding them. The 16th Starman Super is the only one he actively grinded, and that was the one to drop the Sword. |
| 431 | * Episode 52: one of the few enemies he fights is the Chomposaur. It has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Magic Fry Pan, a weapon for Paula. He gets it on that one fight! |
| 432 | ** To further this, he next gets into a fight with a second Chomposaur. He gets the Magic Fry Pans again! He revealed through his Twitter and Facebook pages that this occurrence legitimately caused him to lose his voice and sidelined him from recording for a few days. He states later on that this is a much lower chance than finding a Shiny Pokémon. |
| 433 | ** To put it in perspective: the chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon in Gens 2-5 is 1/8192, or 0.01220703%. The chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon in Gens 6 and 7 is 1/4096, or 0.02441406%. The chance of finding 2 Magic Fry Pans in a row is 1/16,384, or 0.00610352%. |
| 434 | * Episode 53: Though it's also [[Funny/ChuggaaconroyEarthBound pretty funny]], Chugga successfully brainshocking the Diamond Dog into [[SelfDisposingVillain Diamondizing itself]] for a rather unconventional victory is pretty cool. |

| 439 | ** To emphasize, the rant takes a couple minutes even with his fast pace, and he's able to rattle off a ton of examples with what can only be assumed is no rehearsal but a lot of passion on the topic. |

| 443 | * Chugga manages to get the 2000-point prize in [[ThatOneSidequest the archery minigame]] on his first try, after explaining how he quit playing the game during his first playthrough after spending 5 hours on it. |
| 444 | -->'''Chugga:''' F U LAST SELF, YOU SUCK! ONE TRY, EAT IT! |
| 445 | * In Episode 29, Chugga's now-revealed ClockKing plan pays off: He's made sure to buy enough Beedle's Shop Ship items to qualify for the Silver Membership and its Freebie Card... just in time to use the latter for the now-available Golden Cannon (one of the InfinityPlusOneSword Ship Parts). |

| 448 | [[folder:Chrono Trigger]] |
| 449 | * Beating the infamous Copycat minigame on the first try, even though he didn't mean to. Bonus points for said minigame being required to bring Crono back to life later; Chugga's [[BornLucky luck]] just saved Crono! |
| 450 | * In Episode 13, Chugga reveals what he meant by this [=LP=] having a new format--explicitly showcasing ''every ending'' in one neat mechanic that creatively utilizes the newer annotations function of [=YouTube=]. Not only is the fact he was able to do this in an intuitive fashion impressive as is, not only is this also an impressive showcase of every ending, but he did this ''in spite'' of [[ScrappyMechanic the newer YouTube annotation system]], which he has shown distaste for in the past. |
| 451 | ** Another one for the LP as a whole, starting from this episode. Episode 13 covers the bad ending of the game, which is caused by the party rushing to face Lavos and dying. Chugga seems to have planned it this way, as the final Bonus Episode (the 13th) features another HopelessBossFight with the [[EarlyBirdCameo Dream Devouerer]], who gives you the ''13th'' numbered ending when defeated... |
| 452 | * Chuggaa, somehow, made sure that the 'Kill Lavos' button ''would disappear'' when it was revealed that the gate key was stolen by the lizards. He does it again at Zeal's Palace after enhancing Marle's pendant. |
| 453 | ** He hides it again for the final ending (not counting the main endings post Ocean Palace/Blackbird) due to it spoiling a plot point of the Zeal storyline. Although the ending wouldn't be accessible at the point the spoiler is naturally revealed, he's still able to return the button before the episode ends and remove it at the start of the next. |
| 454 | * In Episode 31, Chugga finally snaps at the AD 1000 Chancellor, [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and scathingly tears him a new one]]--rightfully so given the circumstances. |
| 455 | -->'''Chugga:''' YOU ARE COMPLETELY AWFUL! It's one thing to frame me [Crono] for a crime I didn't commit, and have a child executed for it! But, EXCUSE ME! Agh... |
| 456 | -->''[after the sequence where Marle is disowned from the royal family]'' |
| 457 | -->'''Chancellor:''' Oh dear... |
| 458 | -->'''Chugga:''' Freaking... you never get your comeuppance! [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters He's actually worse than the chancellor who was a demon in disguise!]] That's ''impressive!'' |
| 459 | * Chugga acquires the Apocalypse Arm for Robo, which [[AwesomeButImpractical hits for 9999 damage, but only on critical hits with a 0 stat on attack]]. Then he realizes the Dragon's Tear boosts critical hits (20% + 10% from the Apocalypse Arm, though Chugga mistakenly believes it goes up to 50%). And he fights [[{{Superboss}} the Dream Devourer]] with it and hits! TWICE!! |
| 460 | [[/folder]] |
| 461 | |
| 462 | [[folder:Super Mario Galaxy 2]] |
| 463 | * Chugga manages to finish Tall Trunk's Purple Coin mission without collecting a single purple coin. It sounds like EpicFail, but when watching the video Chugga shows exactly how difficult it is to avoid every single coin on the slide (and he even gets to show that the devs [[DevelopersForesight included special dialogue should someone manage to do just that]]). |
| 464 | * The second mission in Chompworks Galaxy re-introduces the [[ScrappyMechanic Spring Mushroom power-up]], which is its only inclusion in Galaxy 2. The final segment has a vertical climb that restricts movement to a 2D plane, meaning you can't wall jump off the back wall and are meant to rely on the power-up. Despite this, Chugga wall jumps and spin jumps off platforms without it, reaching the star with some effort. He admits it'd still be faster to use the power-up, but it proves that it isn't necessary. |
| 465 | ** He repeats it during the Green Star revisit, this time doing the entire level without the Spring Mushroom and grabbing the Green Star by long jumping off a high point in the level. |
| 466 | * He beat [[BrutalBonusLevel The Perfect Run]] on his last life, narrowly avoiding a game over! |
| 467 | * Without naming names or getting mean about it, Chugga discredits [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97IuLorYqqw a popular video]] claiming three 1-Ups hidden in Slipsand Galaxy are impossible to obtain due to the flow of sand being too fast to counter with the character's movement. Chugga easily demonstrates that it's not actually the case, using the correct maneuver and patience to get to the end of the sand in just over a minute, with nary a screw-up. His approach wasn't at all aggressive or hateful toward the video, but he manages to nonchalantly correct the misleading information with a short demonstration. |
| 468 | [[/folder]] |

| 470 | [[folder:Kirby: Triple Deluxe]] |
| 471 | * During the fight with Kracko, Chugga (using the Parasol, which he believes to be the second worst copy ability in the franchise next to sleep) is at a quarter of health while Kracko is at half health. Despite believing it's a long shot, Chugga manages to beat Kracko with minimal damage afterwards, and he even ends the fight in style by plowing right through Kracko, then juggling one of the summoned Waddle Dees on his parasol as Kracko's defeat animation plays. He even sounded genuinely surprised that he came on top despite the [[SelfImposedChallenge severe disadvantage he put himself in.]] |
| 472 | * Speaking of Chugga owning bosses, he does amazingly against Pyribbit. For those not in the know, Pyribbit is considered to be ThatOneBoss of this game. Chugga takes him down likes it's nothing! |
| 473 | * Before he has Hypernova Kirby inhale Flowery Woods, he makes a pretty badass speech. |
| 474 | -->''Flowery Woods, I want you to know that I've beaten you twice now. I am more powerful than ever. There's nothing new about you. Do you see this? Do you see this face, this non-chalantance that I am displaying before you right now? Do you know how much power is within my bowels at this moment? Do you know how much of you I am able to take through my mouth and then later push out of my ass in about four seconds flat? Do you know what you are?'' (proceeds to inhale Flowery Woods whole) '''NOTHING!!!''' |
| 475 | * The fact he managed to beat a good chunk of Queen Sectonia's second phase with no ability is pretty impressive. |
| 476 | ** He repeats the feat again in the Arena. |
| 477 | * At the beginning of Dededetour, Chugga sees that LetsPlay/ProtonJon has managed to achieve a faster time than his original run (Chugga's was 2 hours and 14 minutes while Jon's was 2 hours). What's more, he spots a second record from another Streetpasser that's even ''faster'' (at 1 hour and roughly 51 minutes). Upset at being one-upped by [[VitriolicBestBuds J]][[SitcomArchNemesis on]], Chugga vows to crush Jon's record... and not only does ''that'' quite handily, but he ''also'' beats the Streetpasser's time, clearing the mode with a final time of roughly 1 hour and 48 minutes. |
| 478 | [[/folder]] |
| 479 | |
| 480 | [[folder:Super Mario Land]] |
| 481 | * For April Fools 2020, Emile uploaded an LP of Super Mario Land. However, unlike his Mega Man 2 prank, this isn't a prank... '''It's a full one-hit wonder episode.''' It is created with the usual in-depth trivia, a logo, and even a bonus episode. Even if the LP is, at the end of the day, meant to be a 35 minute long April Fools Day gag, he still treats the project the same as his regular ones, and puts just as much effort into this as he does for every other game. |
| 482 | * Not to mention, just how information-dense the video is! Even if the game itself is short, all the information packed in is genuinely well-researched, he makes sure to cite information, and this is all conveyed in such a way that would seem implausible for such a short series... but Chugga still pulls it off. And then he makes a bonus video, rectifying certain tidbits and giving even ''more'' information than he did in the video proper! It starts to cross the line between an April Fools Day trick, and April Fools Day treat--and in the best ways. |

| 485 | [[folder:Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX]] |
| 486 | * During the personality quiz that determines what your default Pokémon is (although you can choose a different one in this version), Chugga's answers net him a naive nature. In this game, that gives him a ''Skitty'' as his default option. That may seem utterly useless if you know [[JokeCharacter how Skitty is in the main series]], but ''Mystery Dungeon'' is different: in this series, Skitty is described by Chugga as one of the three [[GameBreaker GOD-TIERS]] (next to Pikachu and Cubone) due to how [[StatusEffects Attraction]] works without genders as a game mechanic, as well as it learning Double Slap early on and being able to learn several different types of moves as a result of it being a Normal type. The series hadn't even properly started and he's ''already'' showing how BornLucky he is! |
| 487 | * In Episode 3, Chuggaa has to choose between three missions at Thundewave Cave or one at Tiny Woods that also has multiple treasure and money drops. He chooses the latter and it pays off ''big time'' as he gains some powerful [=TMs=] (including Overheat and ''Blizzard'', a move that Chamomile the Skitty can learn which is good for clearing off ''entire floors at once'') along with a Rainbow Gummi and DX Gummi (which are used to give abilities in place of IQ in this iteration). |
| 488 | -->'''Chuggaa:'''...I'm content. I rescued only one person and I left the other three to hang. And I feel good about myself. |
| 489 | * In Episode 5, he starts doling out the Rainbow Gummis to the now-three member team, getting Rare Qualities out of it. Willow gets PP Pouch, which is good for long adventures as it restores PP on KO. Buzzy Bo gets Leap Ahead, which is nice for corridors, as it allows one-tile attacks to connect by leaping to the front. What does Chamomile get? Rapid Bull's-Eyes, which ensures perfect accuracy on multi-hit attacks. Considering he learns Double Slap early, it has ''massive'' synergy for him. |
| 490 | * In Episode 23, Chamomile goes down against the final boss, Rayquaza, leaving only his partner Willow and Buzzy Bo the Magnemite to face the angry Legendary Pokémon. During the adventure, Willow has constantly been either one step behind due to Chamomile being too strong and getting the kill first (Chamomile ended the story on level 39, 2 levels higher than Willow) or being shafted by the dungeons (most dungeons in the second half of the story have been filled with either Ice, Fire or Flying types, [[ElementalRockPaperScissors all of which the Grass type Willow is weak against]]). But now, against the final boss, she's the one who lands the final blow against it with a super effective Dragon Breath after making it almost helpless by constantly either paralyzing it or Buzzy Bo confusing it with Signal Beam. If this didn't solidify that Willow TookALevelInBadass during the adventure, ''nothing'' will. |
| 491 | * In Episode 26, Willow and Borealone are the only survivors against ''Primal Groudon'', even after Chuggaa used a Revive All Orb. Willow was down to '''3 HP''' and still had enough power to use Dragon Breath to fell the Legendary. |
| 492 | [[/folder]] |
| 493 | |
| 494 | [[folder:Xenoblade Chronicles 2]] |
| 495 | * In Episode 9, as he's going over Azami's abilities and right after describing how [[CriticalStatusBuff her Specials do more damage the lower your HP]], with Tora down and Rex near-death Chugga activates a Special, completely ''obliterating'' the last Gogol's health bar (full health to 0) and securing a clutch win. Talk about perfect timing. |
| 496 | * Despite losing Tora, in [[https://youtu.be/Rswbh3S_8dA?t=337 Episode 16]], Chuggaa manages to take down a Level 20 mob (His group is roughly 13-14), while demonstrating the power of Crossette. |
| 497 | * Chugga's ridiculous luck strikes again in Episode 30, where he manages to get Ursula ''right after'' Merc Missions are first unlocked. For those who aren't aware, much of Ursula's affinity chart and her personal quest are locked behind Merc Missions. A lot of Merc Missions. This is the earliest possible time you can get started on them, and the sooner, the better. |
| 498 | * Despite the fight teetering between disastrous and hilarious, Chugga manages to successfully kill the [[BossinMooksClothing Demon-Shelled Jacob]] with a nice Chain Attack in [[https://youtu.be/YSdEJkFJMHM?t=1757 Episode 37.]] |
| 499 | * [[https://youtu.be/IeLoQgKbPmw?t=777 Defeating the Confiscator Jimmy in Episode 46.]] Especially notable given it's one of the most difficult fights that Chugga ever had to deal with, and he manages to wrack up a massive Overkill near the end. |
| 500 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI-lncemEQ0 Episode 59]]. Chugga does the entirety of [[ThatOneSidequest Ursula's sidequest]] in ''one video'', along with Adriana Figueroa singing and writing lyrics for Ursula's songs. |
| 501 | * [[https://youtu.be/ESONBLmgnXw?t=665 Chugga outright]] ''[[CurbstompBattle decimates Giga Rosa in Episode 69.]]'' |
| 502 | * Turning the final battle against Malos/Aion around and getting two Driver Combos off on him. A Blade Combo puts the boss a sliver away from death before ending him with a Chain Attack featuring all of Chugga's favorite Blades. |
| 503 | --> '''Chugga''' "Ohhh man, we're doing it! We're Driver Comboing this guy! I never get this lucky! Uh... [[KillItWithIce Ultimate Aurora, please?]] We smas- AM I GONNA DO THIS WITHOUT CHAIN ATTACKING?!(combo goes off) [[SayMyName THEEEEOOORYYY!]] You were the right choice for this! [[PrecisionFStrike Fucking awesome!]]" |
| 504 | * During Episode 137, Chugga explains that, in order to get some more information on Pyra and Mythra's situation at the end of the game, he reached out to Jen Bird to clarify some song lyrics for him. ''And she responded.'' |
| 505 | * In Episode 143, Chugga is explaining the Doom mechanic Relic-Holder Tyrannor. Then, in the middle of his explanation, Perceval ''breaks the damage cap to instakill it...'' all because [[AchievementsInIgnorance Chugga forgot Guldos were once human]] and just happened to pick Perceval since he was [[DarkIsNotEvil Dark Element.]] |
| 506 | * In Episode 152, Chugga shows off KOS-MOS' GameBreaker reputation in the best way possible: taking out a Lv 91 [[DemonicSpiders Demonic Spider]] at level 79. |
| 507 | * The final Battle against Malos in Torna: the Golden Country. Chugga spends most of the fight [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown juggling Malos with Level 4 specials and Siren Arts,]] ending in a [[LimitBreak Chain Attack featuring every element and a Full Burst.]] |
| 508 | ** [[CurbstompCushion Malos deserves some credit.]] Chugga came to the fight at a higher level and armed for war, [[TheDreaded but is still scared of how much damage Malos can do.]] [[OhCrap He freaks out when the first attempt at a Chain Attack fails]] and [[DeathOrGloryAttack desperatly rushes for the second attempt just to make sure Malos doesn't turn the battle around.]] |
| 509 | * How about the sheer dedication to this project? This is by far the longest project in his entire Lets Play career, possibly one of the longest single player projects in [=LPing=], spanning close to 16 months of actual videoes, covering pratically everything the main game AND Torna the Golden Country had to offer. Not to mention the amount of time he put into actually researching and reaching out to fellow youtubers for editing. He even reached out to his fans to help cover what he might have missed. All told, he put over THREE HUNDRED TWENTY Hours, or close to two weeks, combined between the Base game and Torna. This is despite the fact he faced a lot of real world issues throughout this project. Get some sleep Chugga, you've earned this rest. |

| 512 | [[folder:Splatoon 2]] |
| 513 | * In episode 1, Chugga managed to win a match where someone on his team ''disconnected''. |
| 514 | * In episode 5, after a few episodes of losing Turf Wars despite having a strong start, Chugga manages to win a match despite having a bad start. His next match is a CurbStompBattle is his team's favor. |
| 515 | * In episode 6, in spite of getting a ''horrible'' match-up for Moray Towers (his team [[CripplingOverspecialization consisted of three blasters]] and a roller while the other team had [[SniperRifle a charger]]), Chugga's team still managed to pull off a comeback victory. |
| 516 | * Episode 12's battles can only be described as Rainmaker ''pwnage''. In the first match, Chugga's team narrowly loses, but spent the whole game until the end in the lead in spite of having a disconnect. In the second match, his team competely destroys the other team, having the lead almost the whole game. |
| 517 | * In episode 14, Chugga displays an amazing outing with the N-ZAP that he is sure would please the weapon's fans in his second Splat Zone match; not only does his team win, but Chuggaa manages to score the most kills with his team's total kill count being more than twice the other team's. |
| 518 | * In episode 25, Chugga completely destroys the [[ThatOneBoss Octo Shower]], not dying so much as once. |
| 519 | * In one episode, Chugga jumps into an active Booyah Bomb and manages to ''survive''. |
| 520 | * Episode 29 sees some impressive matches with the Tetra Dualies, including [[KaizoTrap his Auto Bombs splatting multiple players who just killed him]], but the real kicker is how the Goby Arena match ends. After the timer runs out with neither team having scored, Chugga nails a Power Clam throw into the enemy basket ''right as the match goes into overtime'', instantly winning the match for his team. |
| 521 | * Episode 37 sees Chugga go over something he ''thought he'd never get to in the LP'', the Grizzco Weapons. These have a chance of showing up in green ? weapon rotations, but there's a rare (as in, two to three times ''per year'') gold ? event that grants guaranteed Grizzco Weapons. '''One of those events happened to show up during the Let's Play!''' |
| 522 | * In Episode 39, the enemy team starts off with a strong early lead (''65 points'' on their first push) during Clam Blitz, however, Chugga's team manages to make a comeback by scoring '''91 points''' on their first push and win the match after it goes into overtime due to Chugga holding onto their Power Clam. |
| 523 | * In Episode 42, [=LatiasSplatoon=], Chugga's guest for demonstrating the [[CripplingOverspecialization E-Liter 4K]], scores ''19'' kills during a game of Splat Zone on top of their team winning. |
| 524 | * In Episode 44, Chugga and [=ThatSRB2Dude=], who was brought on to demonstrate the .96 Gal, {{curb|StompBattle}}-stomp the opposing team in a game of Tower Control with Dude scoring ''25'' kills. |
| 525 | * In Episode 48, both matches on Ink Blot Academy have their moments. |
| 526 | ** In spite of a disconnect in the first match, Chugga manages to get a jumping kill with the Ultra Stamp. |
| 527 | ** In the second, Chugga's team makes an ''insane'' push of 67 points, which gives them the lead for the whole game, which results in another win. |
| 528 | * In Episode 55, Chugga manages to clear the infamous [[ThatOneLevel Girl Power Station]] in only six attempts. While it might not sound like much, the level is considered to be easily the hardest level in the game, so Chugga pulling it off that quickly is highly impressive. |
| 529 | * During the Finale, Chugga manages to beat both Agent 3 and the NILS statue in ''one go''. While Agent 3 isn't at his most difficult, it is still not an easy battle and the NILS statue is already at its hardest, yet Chugga makes both look easy. |
| 530 | * In the Bonus Video, Chugga faces off against Inner Agent 3, and laments that he's heard people spend hours on this fight. While it takes him a few tries, he ultimately beats him in around 15 minutes. |
| 531 | [[/folder]] |
| 532 | |
| 533 | [[folder:Paper Mario (Redux)]] |
| 534 | * Much like with his remake let's play of ''VideoGame/{{EarthBound|1994}}'' a few years ago, compare his monotone, almost generic dialogue from the original let's play to the life-bursting modern version. [[SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct You'd believe it if you were told he went to theater or acting class after those let's plays]]. |
| 535 | * In episode 5, Chugga decides to face off against [[{{Superboss}} the Master]] of the Toad Town dojo at ''Level 2''. After suffering a near fatal blow to the Master, he gets ''[[BornLucky seven]]'' Lucky evades in a row, [[TheDeterminator nearly first-trying]] Master before he's ultimately killed. Quite a few commenters admitted that they actually thought Chugga was going to pull it off. |
| 536 | ** Following up in episode 21, Chugga manages to defeat The Master in both his first and second fights and gets a decent way through [[SuperBoss the final one]] as well. |
| 537 | ** Finally in episode 30, Chugga managed to finish the final round with the Master. Not only is he near the ''beginning of Chapter 4'' (less than halfway through the game) at this point in the Let's Play, but he did it at ''level 12'' and with only ''15 HP''. |
| 538 | *** It should also be said that, other than one Merlee spell activation boosting his defense, there was ''little to no luck in play'' that made his victory possible; if anything, luck was against him since his status items [[NoSell both whiffed]] when they could have bought him some free turns. Chugga made good use of his equipped badges and available resources, and he had no Life Shroom on hand as insurance in case of a misplay. He truly defeated The Master, before Chapter 4, with his skill and knowledge. Chugga even realizes after the fight that he could have fought ''even harder'' by taking advantage of [[CriticalStatusBuff Danger status]] while invincible from using Repel Gel, but he used that time to heal instead. |
| 539 | * In episode 16, the spell Merlee casts on Chugga activates ''[[BornLucky three times]]'', the first one which being the first battle Chugga gets into after Merlee's casts the spell on Mario. |
| 540 | * In episode 27, Chugga manages to absolutely ''destroy'' a Hyper Goomba with a OneHitPointWonder build, maximizing his power with Mega Rush as hit crux and Close Call as a safety net. With Merlee's charm granting an attack boost, he dishes out 12 damage with just his hammer. He even manages to carry this build into his battle with Tubba's Heart, beating him handily in just four turns without using his Life Shroom. Then it took him just one more to finish off Tubba Blubba, ending the fight before the latter could even attack. |
| 541 | * In episode 31, Chugga manages to beat Anti Guy, one of the hardest optional bosses in Chapter 4 ''in one try''. |
| 542 | * In episode 50, Merlee's spell ''finally'' activates during a worthwhile fight (Lakilester's), giving Chugga over 20 Star Points. |
| 543 | * In episode 65, thanks to a strategic use of the Triple Dip badge and some lucky timing with Merlee's spell increasing his attack power, Chugga manages to defeat [[{{Superboss}} the Anti Guy Squad]] ''without taking a single point of damage''. |
| 544 | * During the FinalBoss with Bowser, Chugga manages to defeat him while only having to heal himself ''once''. |
| 545 | [[/folder]] |

| 547 | [[folder:Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]] |
| 548 | * Emile went above and beyond to ensure this LP was as good as it could be, bringing in tons of commissioned artwork and music and going over absolutely ''everything'' in the game, even if it's no longer accessible in the current day thanks to the Nintendo DS' internet servers going down. |
| 549 | * In Episode 8, one of Chugga's Lillipup finds a King's Rock with Pickup, which is a ''one percent chance'' find. |
| 550 | * The Eevee that Chugga adds to his team ends up taking out both Elekid and ''[[OlympusMons Victini]]'' before Chugga manages to catch it. When checking its stats, Chugga says that while it isn't exactly what he wants, considering the performance it gave during the fight with his team, it deserves a place on his team. |
| 551 | ** Episode 31 contains multiple moments of awesome for said Eevee, now a Vaporeon. First, despite not having a Water-type move in the fight against Clay, it still manages to defeat both Krokorok (with Signal Beam) and [[LightningBruiser Excadrill]] (with Dig). Later in the episode, when an enemy Zebstrika threatens most of Chugga's team (with Trapinch down for the count), it gets paralyzed on Electabuzz's Static ability, allowing Vaporeon to defeat it with Dig despite the [[ElementalRockPaperScissors type disadvantage]]. |
| 552 | * In Episode 25, Chugga managed to get the [[ThatOneAchievement 30 People Funfest medal]], in a live show at a convention! With video footage to boot! |
| 553 | * In Episode 44, Chugga cuts back over to Black 2 for the episode, where it's revealed that Tim decided to shiny hunt for a Minccino out of boredom. He got it on ''his first try''. With full odds no less! |
| 554 | * After Chugga accidentally uploaded the wrong episode as 54, he manages to edit and upload the actual Episode 54 within an hour of being alerted to the error. This despite the fact that he said it wouldn't be possible until two days later. According to him, [[{{Determinator}} nothing motivates him quite like feeling like he can't do something]]. |
| 555 | * In Episode 56, Chugga beats Marlon, a Water-type gym leader, with Pignati (a fire type who is weak to the water type) and Aidan (also a water type who has moves that are mostly resisted by the other water types). Chugga admits that he didn't expect it to work. |
| 556 | * Episode 63 has a few: |
| 557 | ** Aiden soloing White Kyurem when Chugga didn't expect him to survive long. Also a nice parallel to when it was a wild Eevee. Once a god slayer, always a god slayer. |
| 558 | ** Jade defeating the other five members of Ghetsis' team, even one-shotting [[InfinityMinusOneSword Hydreigon]] with a critical hit. [[TookALevelInBadass Just goes to show how far she's gotten compared to her time as a tiny Trapinch, something Chugga himself points out as she's tearing through Ghetsis' powerful team.]] |
| 559 | -->'''Chugga:''' Jade, I'm so proud of you. You've come so far from being the little girl of the team! |
| 560 | * In Episode 70, after a long trek through Victory Road, Typhoon shows up at the end to give Blaise one last fight. Chuggaa, not expecting this, had failed to heal before the fight. Given his struggle with the two trainers before, things were not looking great. However, Harmony really showed their strength. After a bad range made it seem like this was going to be a rough time, Harmony proceeded to take out 3 out of 4 of Typhoons Pokémon, surviving a super effective attack and getting a clutch freeze on Typhoon's Bouffalant before leaving Typhoon's final Pokémon a hair's breath away from defeat before going down. |
| 561 | * In Episode 72, Lasagna manages to completely sweep Caitlin's entire team without taking a single hit-point in damage. Adding onto that fact, Lasanga ends up being the one to land the finishing hit on Iris's Archeops and secures Blaise's spot as Unova's new Champion. |
| 562 | -->'''Chugga:''' Lasagna, you've come such a long way. You're ex-Team Plasma, and now you're a Champion. |
| 563 | * After being TheLoad for the entirety of the Elite Four and Champion battles, Jade redeems herself by landing a critical Dragon Claw on Alder's Volcarona, taking it from full health to zero in a single move. |
| 564 | * During the beginning of Episode 76, Chugga explains that [[BornLucky his luck was absolutely ridiculous in the past day because he managed to find 5 shiny Pokemon in 24 hours without even trying.]] |
| 565 | * Episodes 84 and 85 lost their audio due to a cable blowing out, leading Chugga to commission Yoshiller to fix them. Yoshiller managed to ''re-create the game audio from scratch'', including menu and battle sound effects, earning him a dedicated thank-you at the end of Episode 85. Many viewers couldn't even tell the difference. |
| 566 | * In episode 86, Chugga manages to catch Regigigas in a ''Great Ball''. |
| 567 | * In Episode 99, he does something that very few gamers have ever done or heard of. He completed the Unova Pokedex, which in this version is see all 300 Pokemon, an endeavor in of itself. But then he adds to it and finds that the reward for it is an area that even fewer people, including people like Yoshiller, who knows this game in and out and has helped with this playthrough, have even heard of, the Nature Preserve, an area that isn't even on the Unova map. |
| 568 | * Episode 102, for the first time in his Youtube Career, Chugga will be streaming his gameplay to stream his attempts at getting some of hardest medals in the game. |
| 569 | * Also from episode 102, Lasagna once again sweeps Caitlin's team, followed by Aiden sweeping Shauntal. |
| 570 | * Episode 104 is aply named "Superwoman Superboss." He took down the two Creator/GameFreak bosses then took on Cynthia, considered by many to be one of the toughest trainers ever designed. Thanks to a miss on Dragon Rush, he beat her without taking a hit. To reiterate, Cynthia, whose very theme has given people nightmares, and is considered to be ThatOneBoss, was swept without getting a single hit off, by a Crustle. |
| 571 | * In his coverage of White Tree Hollow and Black Tower in Episode 105, Chugga manages to get both "Pinpoint: Hard" and "Quick Clear: Hard" (beat one of the lower 5 areas in 6 trainer battles or less and 1000 steps or less, respectively) in the same run, widely considered [[ThatOneAchievement among the hardest Medals in the game.]] |

| 575 | * A subtle one concerns his AprilFoolsDay ''VideoGame/MegaMan2'' parody LP, in which Chugga plays up to the first Wily stage before running out of lives and then casually ragequitting as part of the StylisticSuck. Why is this awesome? Because just a few months earlier, he had never played any ''Mega Man'' game before, posted a video of him getting repeatedly killed almost instantly when playing one for the first time, and has stated that in general, he's not good at 2D platformers. |
| 576 | ** It gets better: he got through the [[ThatOneLevel infamous Quick Man lasers]] ''on his first try.'' |
| 577 | * In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5QPo2ML--Q episode 1 of Sticks It to Sticker Star]], Chugga goes on an in-depth rant on why Bowser's personality and dialogue are so important on what makes him one of the best antagonists in video games and why ''Sticker Star'' not giving him ''any'' of that is a bad idea. |
| 578 | -->'''Chugga:''' [Sticker Star Bowser] has no character other than "stole the Sticker Comet". ''Everyone'' loves Bowser! He's well-written in [[VideoGame/SuperMarioOdyssey Odyssey]] and [[VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine Sunshine]], he's well-written in VideoGame/MarioParty, he's well-written [[VideoGame/MarioTennis in]] [[VideoGame/MarioGolf sports]] [[VideoGame/MarioStrikers games,]] in VideoGame/MarioAndLuigi, in VideoGame/SuperMarioRPG, ''in a freaking'' ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03bAayBtcb0 Parental Controls video!]]'' Even [[VideoGame/PanelDePon Tetris Attack]] had good lines for Bowser! He's hands-down, one of the greatest, funniest, most beloved super-villains of all time, all while having [[VideoGame/BowsersFury legitimate cool-factor!]] You might say Mario games aren't big on story, but a Bowser with no personality is a ''huge'' let-down for ''any'' Mario game. |
| 579 | ** Later, in the finale, he mentions that Miyamoto himself was displeased with how Bowser was handled and said as much, meaning that the decision to give Bowser, who is famed for his [[LargeHam endearingly hammy]] and hilarious dialog, ''no lines whatsoever'' and instead only having him roar and growl whenever he appears was solely the decision of the developers, as was making his castle [[DisappointingLastLevel one long hallway with a few easily avoided obstacles]]. |
| 580 | * During [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNHs2BmCeHA episode 3 of Sticks It to Sticker Star]], Chugga tears apart the character mandate that the series has been stuck under by pointing out all the ways that the development team could have gotten around it. First off, he states that the comment by Miyamoto was merely a suggestion and that the man himself had no control over the series, meaning that, as he puts it, the developers could have quite literally just ignored the comment. But even if they did have to follow it, there were several better ways to handle it. Can't make any new characters? [[TheBusCameBack Bring back beloved characters from the first three games.]] Can't use characters based on existing Mario species? Use characters like Twink, Vivian, and Dimentio (and, for those that don't know, the latter two are some of the ''most popular characters from the subseries'', meaning that literally no one would have complained if they returned). Can't use ''any'' previous characters? Let Bowser and Peach have characters again or bring in mainstream Mario characters like Rosalina, Wario, or the Kongs. The decision to render the characters so stagnant, rigidly controlled, and lackluster was entirely the choice of the developers, who have clung to this "mandate" for reasons unknown except perhaps nothing but sheer stubbornness. He also notes Miyamoto was on record saying the game was boring after he played it. |
| 581 | * In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RodZ9fV2M6I the finale of Sticks It to Sticker Star]], Chugga states that he actually respects Creator/IntelligentSystems for trying new ideas, and had they simply stuck to the formula, we'd probably never have gotten ''VideoGame/SuperPaperMario'', which he considers a series high point. However, it's been a full ''nineteen years'' since the last ''Paper Mario'' game that stuck to the original formula, and the games since ''Sticker Star'' haven't performed nearly as well as the original games, and that they're merely adhering to a newer, less successful formula now. RevisitingTheRoots would actually be far more original than the current path. [[RayOfHopeEnding Which is why he was quite overjoyed]] to prefix his rant with a note the remake of ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'' was announced before he put the episode up. |
