Challenger Approaching - Pokémon Emerald Randomizer Speedlocke Challenge 

Introduction starts at 0:00​​ Run starts at 7:25 Runners: twitch.tv/shenanagans_

I will watch any run with Shen, Keiz and Eddaket. They banter so well together and are a font of pokemon knowledge.

Honestly my favorite gdq runs are these ones where things go horribly wrong, not because I wanna see the runners fail but I love seeing them ride out what’s happening, reroute and re plan on the fly instead of another hard reset. Well done to shen and his commentators

Alright, this is interesting. sacrificing Animals to go fast, sounds like a speedrun

I'm glad you all decided to keep the first bit in. It's nice to see an example of how quickly this challenge structure can fall apart.

This is a fantastic dumpster fire of a run, so much so that I had to post my first ever youtube comment. Love ya Shen.

"We have heard the voice. All hail the voice. The magic conch" Lmao commentary/10

This trio is always a delight, great chemistry, and a very fun run to watch!

I love it when Shen , Keiz and Eddaket get together , theyre so much fun.

02:17:00 This run is such a wreck but I am having so much fun watching! XD When you started the monologue about speed boost I had tears in my eyes from laughter.

The SpeedChoice menu has an 8-bit version of the ORAS Contest theme and I love that.

Great runs, rly showcasing Shen's skill and lack of luck at the game

That Dragon Dance Wigglytuff was DISGUSTING. Thanks for the idea on how to play Emerald in a new sense Shen!

Man the combination of shen, eddekat and keizaron is so good. I laughed quite a few times at their banter

Still in the process of watching this in chunks throughout my day, but this is very entertaining. There are so many things that can go wrong in nuzlockes and randomizers, but adding the speed element is very interesting and removes one of a Nuzlocke's greatest safety nets - Decoy pokemon. Never really having anything to switch into to bait out or eat a big hit for you is an extra layer of difficulty.

Castform was my favourite pokemon for the longest time but look I don't blame *anyone* for not using it.

Shen: "I'm sorry if you're a Castform fan." Somewhere, off in the distance; "can i get a h a i l y e a h ?"

Love Shen runs! Welcome to the underscore guys

without a doubt this is THE BEST CHALLENGE RUN I HAVE EVER SEEN !!!!

Had a blast watching. GG, that was one unlucky crit.

What, no Shen doing the "get a Zigzagoon to level 100 before the first trainer battle" run? :D

02:05:46 "I just need to avoid crit" most famous last words for a nuzlocke. Lol

2:16:07 "You just have to say that you're fine, when you're not really fine, but you just can't get into it because they would never understand."

Krabby? Believe it or not, it drops.

I was wondering when we’d start seeing this kind of Pokémon challenge run at a GDQ, looking forward to watching this! :)

This was so much fun to watch, fun banter to sit back and listen to.

Excellent run, I loooooove Challenger Approaching!

let's play a 4x4 mine sweeper yeah! all 4 mines! all hail math

Haven't watched the whole thing yet, but I just wanted to say thanks for the great content. I greatly enjoy Pokemon Shenanigans haha

Despite the disastrous attempts, the run is so much fun to watch. The 5-min rule is kinda hard though given that you are basically banking on one lead pokemon whilst not having enough decoys.

Wigglytuff? More like Wigglytough 😅 Tough run in general, especially at the end… but still so fun to watch! Enjoyed it all the way through ❤️

This was a super enjoyable run. I want to see more of these.

This was a great watch. More Pokémon gdq is always good. Especially with shen, eddaket, and keiz

5 minutes? Nuzlocke rules? Man it takes me like 40 hours to beat the game normally, no way I'd be able to do this, the timer counting down would give me too much anxiety as well lmao

This is the Little Shop of Horrors seed. Victrebeel just keeps saying "feed me shen(more)"

Pokemon crew always put on an enjoyable show. All hail supreme galactic overlord Wigglytuff

Great run! Looks fun as hell!

When they said wind like wind instead of wind...I felt that.

lol i thought my headphones were broken near the beginning of the run

Always enjoy Shen and company.

Nice concept well executed !

Yeah that drops

rip blaziken. but shen wasnt crit @4:21:09

Honestly I feel like Shen was making good decisions a lot of the time, but stuff would just stack up against him. Most of the time his guesses on damage were pretty close, so when he missed an OHKO by like 2hp, I feel like it was probably a low damage roll. easy to see how frustrating it gets having to relax the rules more and more while trying to show off a fun challenge run.

It’s funny because Castform is, in fact, my favorite Pokémon, but I understand it’s not very good.

This was a very fun and interesting run to watch! Is the speed settings a modded version of the game? Is that available for public access?

I am loving the challenger approaching series! Keeps things fresh

Where can we get the speedchoicr mod for this?

I’d love to see more speedlockes

Emerald = Love 💚

What randomizer settings do you use to make the first fight have a randomized wild pokemon attacking birch?

I was hopeful you'd finish with that second Jolteon, but then...

Very fun run

Thats so interesting!

What a grind.

Ah yes, i see shen, i press like

The dragon dance speed boost...oh god...

Well goddamn. Why would you do this to yourself? Great speedrun though, keep going!

This might be the dumbest run I've ever seen and I love it

wait....didnt he catch an electrik and jolteon in the same route????

how did he get gamecube controller to work with emulator?

Do people do this with the pokemon universal randomizer or is the somewhere you can grab the roms?

Interesting concept

Turns out Keizaron is a decent singer...

This is rad

Love the challenge! Even though I feel like the rules could be refined a bit Spoiler . . . . . . . . . . Terrible luck at the end

Sick run!

Im just here for keizaron 🤣🤣🤣

Is there information on how to make a game modded like this one?

Good work Shenanagans_ on finish your run under estimated.

great job!

how do i mod pokemon emerald?? that pregame menu looks so fun and im not knowledgeable on technology

That Wigglytuff was savage...

What a meme run.

I personally thought this run was perfect

trans rights!!!

Incredible

Alakzam had disable for dragon dance.

I dont understand this

God I so hope he comes across a shiny. I love killing shinies 😂

rip

Dope Shit

🙂

This guy is a Pokémon savant

Yo

Randomizer? Eeeeeww!

I love pronouns.

Wish this had audio lol

I thought this run might have gone well ...then I heard Keizaron's voice.

This is somewhat off topic but I’ve somehow just now thought of it. The opening cutscene is the moving truck pulling up in front of the house. Where does this truck come from? There are no car roads to be seen. And rarely are land vehicles in this world at all.

We need Pokemon Challenges to give a shot at this. Maybe not randomizer, but jan would be a good adittion to this kind of challenges

This is a nreally interesting idea for a nuzlocke

That was really fun, hope you get to show a propper run on a marathon someday

What rom is this? I would like to play this for myself

This is for myself 12:36

Always a good time with the poke crew
