How I Beat The "Impossible" Nuzlocke 

Keep up the good work

YEAH BOY! VOD CHANNEL!

LETS FUCKING GO I WANTED THIS

Shit, i didnt know i needed this

VOD channel? Based

This is a great head canon.

My guy too impatient 😂

Lance tries to use roar of time dramatically, so he yells "ROOOOOAAAR OOOFF-" but by that time dialga already used roar. You are a funny person.

That's a good one lmao

It’s his trigger word

Ok good idea Imma do it Update: Im nearly done, the last line he say is : Well boys, end of attempt 68, to attempt 69, noice. Update2:busy adding all pokemon and moves and ability and buffing some mons that i like and creating new moves and new signature ability :)

you get him down to one mon and he says "well that's kinda awkward"

@@konvitdapda69420 progress/link if ur being fr?

@@tigzy. idk the link i stole pokemon emerald and me and my fren made it

@@konvitdapda69420 can u upload it so the community can play

That’s all you need

Aegislash is not free though. Its 100k

@@aldrensiscar3988 there’s no risk in getting in though

@@aldrensiscar3988 Think people more just mean it's a guaranteed encounter. A lot of these games become pretty easy when you have guaranteed pokémon encounters so it makes planning your team easier. I'd like to see a run where they just ignore all the guaranteed encounters and only run with whatever random pokémon they find in the grass/fishing, at least it would make it a lot harder I think but like Jan has said (dunno if it was in this video or in other videos) Radical Red just isn't that good for Nuzlockes, it's better played as just an extremely hard version of a normal game.

@@Gohka Yup RR is designed for experimentation and teambuilding, not really nuzlocke friendly.

Yo it’s Supra

Yo its Supra

@@charleshollister3612 he downloads them he doesn’t make them

@@charleshollister3612 "You literally cant lose this way unless you miscalculate or misclick" haha say that to his 54 emerald kaizo attempts. Nuzlocking at the top level the way Jan does it is all about risk management to play as safely as possible. As soon as you get lazy and don't play around a crit and lose a crucial mon, a run can snowball down catastrophically in these rom hacks. Making solid game plans that accounts for and mitigates that risk is very difficult. It can seem like he's just spamming good mons/strategies because of the quick editing, but he legit spent 4 days theorycrafting for and preparing for the elite 4 to eventually come up with that team that could handle everything that the elite 4 could throw at him safely and with as little risk required.

@@charleshollister3612 So you can be a doctor just by buying medical textbooks or do we need a reminder that reading about something and doing it aren't equivalent?

The animations for some moves as well

Unless we’re talking about mega snorlax I entirely agree

rillaboom is trash.

@@wookun3408 I liked him actually lol

I really feel like the sprites have more soul. The 3D models just don't have that same energy.

Seems legit

a balanced claim really

I'm your thousandth like lol

@@Empy003 Holy crap, I legitimately didn’t even know this comment got popular.

Haha

Somehow pixelated sprites look more animated and alive than some 3d ones lol

@@Xzunia Less is more. When they transitioned to 3D they needed to do a lot of animation work to compensate for the lack of imagination 3D models have. Obcourse they didn't, and now a lot of pokemon just stand their idling. The older Stadium games and Revolution did a nice job though. If only a mainline game would put in the effort to make them feel alive. At least our boy Ludicolo still has his iconic dance animation.

Peak Pokémon aesthetic will always be Gen 5 in my mind, but Gen 3 is a very close second tbh. It’s very nice

@@AHappyPotato 3, 4, 5 are a combined peak to me.

@@SkyNinja759 And then we have the Mega lapras Versoin Lmao.

The great explorer Wigglytuff would definitely be pleased with this comment if they weren't so busy running after a rolling perfect apple.

Haha truuuuuu

Game: And i took that personally

Some MJ type shit

the blizzard on the no deaths BDSP run…lmfao

TRUE LULW

As someone who can’t catch up with the streams, what attempt is he at?

@@e.v4892 His 53rd and best attempt ended today after wiping to the last trainer at the Team Aqua hideout.

@@El_Kanto that’s pain

@@aweeb5473 yeah but he knew that this attempt would fail very early.. he unnecessarily lost many mons and had only 10 left at the begging of aquahideout .. he even just had 5 left for the last fight

It’s scarf ditto, the idea is that if you’ve used a setup sweeper, it will copy the boosts, outspeed and reverse sweep you.

Meow

Happened to me in this game with Mega Gengar! But it wasnt a nuzlocke. On my second try my dragon dance flygon swept through the champs team, but then the ditto switched in and got all the boosts. thankfully, it took stealth rock damage and my max ev technician breloom mach punched it for the W extremely troll move by the makers of this romhack

I had one mon left and it nearly beat me

It is kinda clever as an anti sweep mechanic. That's the only point I'll give it though.

For a blind run where many would try a setup sweep it is honestly a good tool

"hold my white herb"

He is the most German looking German named Jan

Yep. I always forget what team she has because of this

Because all Ghosts were also Poison in Gen1. In fact until Gen3 there were like (fully evolved) Gengar Misdreavus Sableye Banette Dusclops That's it

@@AlldaylongRock yeah, the lack of dragon types and ghost types in gen 1 & 2 for having people who specialize them has always bugged me. At least gen 1 ghost isn't gen 2 dragon type, with 2 fully evolved dragon types in a game with 2 dragon trainers.

@@2shy2guy52 MandJTV did videos on «Types, then and now», and he actually referred to that in the Ghost and Dragon videos. Why the fuck there were 2 Ghost Specialists in Gens 1 and 2 ( Agatha and Morty and In fact Morty doesnt even use a freaking Misdreavus ffs) with literally 2 FE Ghosts (Gengar and Misdreavus)? And Dragon with only literally 2 FE Pokemon (Kingdra and Dragonite) gets 3 specialists (Gen1 Lance, Gen 2 Lance and Clair).. But the fucking Dark type had to wait until gen 7 to get a gym leader(Counting the Kahunas as Gym Leaders), while Fairy got one right at its introduction? Pokemon games are just weird with those things And Gen 2 was super weird with the Pokemon picked for Gym Leaders (I remember Jan's meme and its actually pretty accurate), like, why Jasmine doesnt even get Skarmory?(Literally the only full Gen 2 Steel type), Chuck had 2 Kanto mons instead of like Hitmontop and Heracross....

@@AlldaylongRock Skarmory isnt the only fully evolved johto steel theres steelix and forretress

Ludwig I heard is pretty good

@@a8genuch543 what? Ludwig? Hell no! Purplecliff is a god in nuzlocke

@@soulhoney1908 EXCUSE ME. did u see how horrible purplecliffe was in the video on pokemen7 plays channel can three you tubers beat Pokémon platinum?

@@tanudhawan6340 dude this is irony i know purplecliff is so bad Pc would look at that and say "Are you even nuzlocke?"

@@soulhoney1908 ah yes, *sarcasm you mean, but quite unfortunate that our friends here didn't get it here

They know how bullshit that ability is and yet they refuse to nerf it and decided to just make mega audino bad instead

Bruhhh fr fr in radical red competitive stall is one of the strongest playstiles and mega audino is complete cancer there, its as strong or stronger than fucking swift swim drizzle teams with fishious rend seaking

Double regenerator SPDef and Defensive cores are a real pain in the booty to deal with in PvP, and also broken in a HC Nuzlocke

Nice

YEA

Me: stays unsubed due to how arrogant jan is

@@gavinl1565 cringe

Jan, by the end of Blue Kaizo, was exhausted because of how many attempts it took and how many times he lost at the Elite Four. Blue Kaizo was created to be as ball-bustingly difficult and frustrating as possible. Jan had more fun in Radical Red because of how few attempts it took along with him having lots of hands-on knowledge and experience doing damage calculations and proper team-building, which is the main focus of Radical Red's difficulty. I'm sure it was nice change of pace considering how many ROMs he's played where the difficulty mostly comes from the ROM makers making shit challenging for the sake of torturing the player, along with making the story super edgy and cringe

@@dantethewanderer4989 Yeah, I like that about Radical Red. It's not "dumb" difficulty, this romhack is mostly pretty fair. You do need to be prepared, but this hack provides all the tools pretty conveniently (IV/nature changers, etc); if you don't, some trainers will pretty much demolish you. Still no shot for me to beat it in a Nuzlocke run, but I had a lot of fun with it in a regular run

Let me participate in that.

BASED

Same

Very cool.

based algorithm boosting reply

With the rain playstyle one more broken, anybody can do it.

Viz did it blind right after it released lmfao

@@raikaru0 And without looking up boss movesets and stats. For a " Best Nuzlocker" he sure did take the cowards way out. He lost the right to say the game is easy the moment he admitted he did so. Because if he was really a pro he would of guessed the movesets and stat distributions failing over and over until he finally won!

@@celiafrostborn so he would've purposely played less optimally until he eventually plays optimally andcleans the game Yeah totally hard game, and that's totally what a pro nuzlocker would do

@@ASteveVaiFan in his rom hack ranking video he called insurgence a boss rush mode: there's so many resources available to the player to essentially manipulate your team to be perfect for each fight. The game is only hard from a decision making perspective, but so long as you are thorough and disciplined before every fight you should be fine. Admittedly the second gym is hard as balls in my experience regardless

🤣🤣🤣

Can't it be both? Lol

@@alexanderhalvorson9950 Def felt like both.

The opponent uses Hard Stall against you Stall with Arena Trap

the opponent has gen 1 evs

Somehow Palpatine returned vibes

The Hardcore mode added after this playthrough does take away some of your most powerful strategies while powering up enemies (and adding more boss trainers). Might genuinely be un-Nuzlock-able, but it would be cool to see Jan just play through a sufficiently hard hack normally for once.

Yes

Power up hit

Sunsteel Ram Geist Beam Disarm Cry Petal Storm Power up Hit Dragon Rise Dazzle Gleam

@@superiorflygon7171 The others are fairly obvious, what is Dragon Rise?

@@pikminman13 My guess would be Dragon's Ascent

@Reine Buttermilch why you pokemom nerds resurrect based in 2020? Lil B the based god since 2012...makes no sense

@@the_juug_god4100 based

lance and bruno are way harder

never listen to 4chan about anything for any reason. Big mistake

The AI definitely does cheat with knowing your sets, I tried the Brock rematch a bunch of times and he would always switch in his Omastar on my Gengar if it didn't have Energy Ball, but never switch it in if Gengar did have Energy Ball despite the move itself having never been used. It just knows what sets you have in advance.

Are you a jew?

Jan is German. He speak fluent English cause he lived in Hong Kong for a few years as a kid and grew up around a lot of English media.

@@Nocturne989 oooh that explains it

But the content of his german sentence... 😅

I had to do a double take when he suddenly started speaking german. Really unexpected to suddenly hear your mother tongue in a english video XD

​@@Wolftatzeyou know that he is german? XD

Reading an A.I. and reading players are completely different but yeah I’m curious too

I dunno what you're talking about. Darwin is pretty broken. Wait...

That’s Regenerator for ya!

^

what game is it again

h i radical red

@@user-ly5gw3xe6v He's already done with the game as of this video coming out.

In this game you can. With Gen 8 mechanics.

@@Niceone11202011 Nope. That's not a thing in Radical red, no idea where you got that information from but it's entirely false lol.

@@enderstrikegaming8578 yes you can. Press start and right you get the dexnav and PC option. So you can change your team every time without going to a pokemon center. You just go to the menu

Be quiet

Cringe but im one of you so truuuuu

Holy Moly!Is that a Jojo reference?

Fracking weeb lol

*That looks up opposing pokemon and movesets* YA BEST IN THE WORLD

Or even a randomizer nuzlocke. It's what I'm currently playing with. My first attempt. 😮😩🤦🤷😂

@@jaimereupert4247 I bet randomizers are fun but I hate it conceptually with how hard hardcore mode is. I think the consistency of the guaranteed encounters makes calcing and preparing a lot less of a headache. Like if you don't have a plan for kartana in the grass gym or get unlucky with mons you just get swept. Planning around a randomizer sounds like a nightmare lol

@@zxyen1629 from some of the guides and walkthrough runs I've seen of people playing this, the main battles (gym leaders and rival) have the same mons. They used the same ones for me that they did for them. Also idk about on hardcore or any other mode other just the normal randomizer option. Didn't want to try them yet, just wanted to have the starters and available pokemon randomized. And even without any other options turned on, you still have a lvl cap, still can't use items in trainer battles and it always on set mode. Plus it changed some stuff, like no more ohko moves or being able to put more than one mon to sleep at a time. Stuff like that, it tells you all the changes when you go to face Brock.

@@jaimereupert4247 yeah I've been playing it. I'm just saying hardcore is a step above the normal run as far as teams go and even without a randomizer, a nuzlocke is so incredibly difficult. But you could get insane mons in a randomizer. I'll definitely try it out someday

@@zxyen1629 speaking of insane pokemon, what would be the best starter/team to go for? (I'll keep resetting until they appear)

@@liambarron9772 It's so fucking RNG dependant it's crazy, you need some specific encounters to get through early game and also mid game, late game is kinda fun except the last Team Rocket fights. The league is just dumb af, literally have to preper for 9 teams full of ubers and totally unfair gimmicks like permanent Rain/Hail without a setter or being unable to remove hazards

@@liambarron9772 Totally doable but quite frustrating

@@liambarron9772 Eternatus can be dealt with easily with the right members, you could just cycle between them until he's out of pp, or just Destiny Bond kill it

@@kevinizzarelli417 I beat it ,the nuzlocke I mean. My team for e4 was lanorus, slowbro, urshifu, Alolan muk, delphox,togekiss

@@gautambose Where did you get landorus and urshifu?

I think Lance’s Dragonite was Choice Banded into Earthquake, which couldn’t hit Mandibuzz. That forced AI to switch out to the only other team member, Salamence
