I Spent 300 Hours In The Battle Dome. Here's What I Learned.

The Dome is my favorite facility, don't tell the Factory crowd, they'll disown me.

A lot of this information has never been laid out before and a lot of it is kind of complicated.

Before you ask; I have no idea if there are any shinies in the background. If there are, its a 1/8192.

Is slayking vs slacking intentional? I would be lying if i said i didnt enjoy switching between them as much as possible.


If you enjoyed this video; the best thing you can do is share it with someone else who would like it.

As always, a big thanks and a lot of credit goes to the PRET (decomp) team.

But also specific thanks to Altissimo, Actaeon and Mow. Actaeon figured out a lot of this stuff WAY before anyone else knew anything.
Special thanks to Jheisinho (    / @smilingpolitoed   ) for his footage at the end.

If me calling the Pokemon AI the "AI" bothers you because of LLMs, you'll have to get over it, this has been what the community has called it over over 2 decades. It would be more confusing for me to call it something else.
