@MoxieInfernape 11 месяцев назад

I've watched a lot of your videos Matti, but this is one of my favorites. Perfect example of a new way to innovate Nuzlockes, even in a very familiar game, that makes the challenge experience very different. The meta of what Pokemon are good gets flipped from a standard Emerald Nuzlocke and it was super fun watching you figure that out. Illumise was one of the most important Pokemon of the run and that's not a sentence I thought I would hear!! I would love to watch a Vod for this challenge if available because it would be fun to see your thought process throughout the challenge and how you realized some of these neat work-arounds to healing here. Also didn't know I needed to see Matti's face on an Electrode begging not to die but that's something I'll never unsee. I love Pokemon Emerald and I apprecaite all your efforts to keep revisiting this awesome game. You're killing it dude :D

@SpiritofrockinKids 11 месяцев назад

This Nuzlocke is so different from the Monolockes. The limited PP, different mechanics for leveling, and how you use your money throughout the run show a new (or under utilized) set of skills in Nuzlocking. Keep up the fantastic work!

This was such a fun challenge to watch. Always so great to see all the ways you can get creative and find workarounds for the rules you set yourself. I predicted at the beginning that Wish would have a big part in the run, but I'm used to seeing it on Umbreon, so seeing Kansas the Illumise really come in clutch was such a refreshing change of pace. The most fun part of these videos is truly seeing you figure out ways to make even the most seemingly useless pokes into heroic linchpins of the run.

So theoretically, in this challenge it is legal to teach a pokémon thief and then have them steal a berry and then have your pokémon eat that berry? Held items are allowed, and you can't use berries on your pokémon, but if in a fight an effect of a move grants the effect it's a loophole?

@MajinMattPlays 11 месяцев назад

I appreciate how you played with the rules for this challenge rather than being overly strict, it made the strats you were going to use far more entertaining and it felt like you were being clever rather than brute forcing it. The biggest example is Kansas going into the box a couple times and coming back out because she was at full HP and could mess around with TMs, HMs, and Move Re learner stuff. Was a great watch!
