I tried beating Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu without leveling up. It was… a whole thing.

Hey Trainers, I’m Craig, and I just wrapped up a full no-level-up challenge run in Let’s Go Pikachu. No Rare Candies, no grinding—just strategy, a lot of stubbornness, and a team I never thought I’d use.

I skipped the first rival battle, tackled gyms out of order, and somehow still made it all the way to the Champion. The whole thing’s on YouTube, but I’m really curious—has anyone else tried something like this? And if you were gonna run it, what team would you go with?

Would love your thoughts and maybe some ideas for what game I should try this on next. Sword and Shield, maybe?
