It's like... Jan reached the peak of Nuzlockes, and then decided to build a completely different mountain just so he could climb a little higher.

Hello guys! One of the devs here for CKKPLUS. Thanks so much guys for watching! I can't wait for PChal to beat... or get destroyed by the trainers, and most especially by the AI I've managed to edit to be similar to Emerald Kaizo and fix bugs on switching so AI will switch more often than vanilla Crytal or Emerald Kaizo. I'm so grateful to be a part of this project hihi

I'm now convinced Jan's life is an any% speedrun on encountering the impossible hardcore nuzlocke

Shout out to the devs for improving the game to another level. Just to emphasize the work the devs did, during the stream, Jan revealed that because the original CK had issues with additional editing, they had to COMPLETELY recode CK before they could even do any of their own edits.

I remember when Jan said he couldn’t do good RU-vid intros but now he has a smooth script all the way, even perfectly integrated sponsorships. Kudos to you 10/10

Wie ich immer darüber lachen muss, dass Jan mittlerweile wie so ein süchtiger Masochist zu den Programmierern rennt, um ihm ein noch schwereres Spiel zu machen. "Hat Jan dich heute auch angerufen?" "Er stand vor der Tür."

Worlds happiest Kaizo player 0:54

The fact that they made Ledian good makes me so happy. Such a fun design and concept ruined by the fact that Gen 2 Pokémon all blow ass

I feel you on that Togetic. I lost in my locke in my first ever video to a Togepi that used Metrenome and got Hyper Beam in Fire Red with the Huge Power ability. The Togepi line can be super scary.

My dude couldn't wait for the next kaizo rom hack and said "Fine, I'll do it myself"

I love how Jan does ad integrations. it’s not some minute long thing where you just skip it, he still talks about important things like encounters in the video to keep your interest through the ad

Can’t wait for completion of this challenge to be posted

My mans really managed to find a way to have ppl not skip the sponsor by incorporating it into the actual vid xD Respect +

its so interesting to watch him play these harder versions of pkm games, his planning and just playing pkm is really interesting, and every run keeps me hooked

Pov nordvpn listening to the pc's sponsor: we picked the right dude. 👍

To all of the frogs who keep asking him to react to Alpharad, he already did on stream. He literally watched the video as soon as it was uploaded.

I can't beat Blaze Black 2 even with cheat codes. I couldn't probably get past to the first trainer in this game lol

ALPHARAD HAS A NEW NUZLOCKE

YES! Gotta love you keeping this style of videos after the awesome Emerald Kaizo ones. Hope to see more about this new challenge on YT in the future !

He says he's "*probably* the best nuzlocker in the world" because he pushed the former best nuzlocker in the world off a cliff, and he's *probably* dead but you never know.

Jan has gotten so good at these sponsorships. Sometimes I just forget about it being their and I don't want to skip over it because it's integrated with content. Ingenious really.

I'm wondering if these guys can do something similar for Blue Kaizo. Blue Kaizo+? It's just a thought.

This is the equivalent of Saitama looking for a good fight after reaching peak strength. Jan had become the ultimate nuzlocker and was no longer satisfied so he took matters into his own hands

That Sprout Tower 'holiday advertisement', man, I love it. Great vid, great content. Also, thanks a lot in investing into creating Pokemon games that are actually challenging and fun to play. The 'Falkner has a legendary bird/overleveled mon as a first leader' to create a challenge is quite lame, so I am happy to see these type of games.

As Dunsparce is one of my favorite Pokemon, I feel like this rom hack has catered well to me.

Really great video! Note to Jan's editors; I don't know if this is just personal taste, or if anyone else feels this way, but in my opinion displaying captions of the narration in rapid succession, one word at a time on a plain black screen (i.e. from 0:17 - 0:20 or 0:43 - 0:51) is distracting and almost a bit painful to watch. I'd personally rather just watch footage of the game instead of trying to struggle to read the words like they're being projected by a strobe light. I personally love captions but I'd rather just toggle the CC feature on RU-vid to follow along line by line if I'm having trouble hearing the narration. Overall I think the editing quality of this channel is very good, and the editors' personal comedic touches over top of the raw footage are a really nice touch :)

Risk of Rain music at the beginning and I know I recognised a bunch of songs, maybe Carpenter Brut? Anyone have the music Pchal uses for his videos or a playlist or something?

Crystal is without a doubt my favorite pokémon game so seeing a legit Kaizo version of it is awesome. Really cool how they gave you the cartridge for it, too

It kinda feels like you climbed the highest mountain you could find . So you build an entire new mountain just so you could climb it .

That natural integration of the sponsorship message was brilliant

Edited live commentary with live reactions and expressions to funny or big moments will always be superior to MST3K-style post commentary applied over a slim video.

Alpharad made a new nuzlock

Of all the things that happend in this video, i did not expect the transistor music. Good choice jan

That was quite possibly the most seamless nord vpn sponsorship I've ever seen. Pokemon Challenges knows how to write a strong script 👏👏 Great video!

Little thing I always dig is hearing the Risk of Rain music. MMM that shits gooooood.

So happy with how this project turned out! Done up to lance! Kanto will come soon

I think you might be the first RU-vidr I've ever seen to spell "piqued" correctly, big ups.

The reason crystal kaizo went over the cap was to make the AI pokemon have comparable stats to the player who has the badge star boosts.

Shoutout to the transistor music near the end, such a good game and studio

05:20 "That's really fuckin scary" he says, as the smiling tree begins pelvic thrusting

Bro you worked the ad into the plot of the video so i couldn't skip it. You're a frekin genius.

Can I just comment on how the ad reads are pretty clever, you cant skip them without skipping some video Also Alpharad nailed it

That was the slickest ad read I’ve ever seen. Even the travel guide on Sprout Tower

Seeing the wake up Giga Drain threat on Kabuto when you have a 4x super effective rock slide right in front of your nose is why you’re the RU-vidr. In no world would I assume that Butterfree would wake up in that position. Talk about smart plays

I can't understand how he's so skilled at Nuzlockes to begin with. I can't understand how he enjoys so much making it harder and harder on himself XD, at this point it feels like every video of Jan I'm just admiring a god

I honestly love the way you have started incorporating sponsors into you vids. I really prefer it over just straight up interrupting the vid for a sponsor

Brilliant way to integrate an ad read with information pivotal to the story of the video. Paced so you can watch the video and still get information about the ad if you’re interested but you don’t feel like the ad was just another 1-minute skip ahead if you’re either already a customer or not interested. 👍

"I suck at RU-vid outros," is a pretty good RU-vid outro.

Still waiting for the new Alpharad Nuzlocke reaction.

I think a very nice game for you to nuzlocke will be pokemon reborn. It is hard but not boring. The story and plot are very nice, the quantity of pokemon available is also a high point

YOOOO, are these animations updated or was Pokemon Crystal just better animated than I remember?

Alpharad made a new nuzlocke video

You need to check out Alpharad's new Nuzlock specifically made for you

Jan: *Calls Vulpix useless.* Me: ...And I took that personally!

00:01 Gotta love the risk of rain 2 music

The risk of rain 2 sound track in the back😂😂

Just personal opinion: the flood of text changes in the beginning got annoying quickly. I think they are fun in certain situations, but it felt like it was way too much

cant wait to see the comments about alpharads new nuzlocke

Love hearing the Risk of Rain 2 background music!

Gliscor BST on the first gym is insane

Can you invent a new genre of nuzlocke called a one shot nuzlocke? If you don’t one shot on an attacking move, your Pokémon faints. Plus all the other nuzlocke moves

Bro. These Nord VPN ads are so annoyingly brilliant

New alpharad nuzlocke just dropped

Can anyone tell me what song kicks in when he has to fight dunsparce? I'd greatly appreciate it!

Yo I see you using the fire Risk of Rain 2 soundtrack

Just based on the music you use in the background, you have great taste. VVVVVV, Furi, Transistor; very nice.

I love the risk of rain music at the start of the video

Does your discord have the rom files to download and play for yourself? Just saw you channel and I love watching the gameplay and analysis

1:13 so it's pretty much like Pokemon Unbound Sandbox mode

he didn’t even have to specify what game is harder in the title. we just know

Looks like the true mistakes were those we made throughout the day.

love the risk of rain 2 soundtrack ^^

If someone read Overgear, PC is like greed when he is doing his commercials at world tournament events

New Alpharad video! Check it out Juan!

New alpha video (perfect nezlock)

when you try to skip the sponsored segment, but... its baked INTO the content ! ! !

You should have a look at Radical Red Hardcore 3.0. I know you’ve done the original RR which to be honest is pretty easy, but HC mode is much more challenging. I’d say it’s on a similar level to Emerald Kaizo if you’re trying to Nuzlocke it.

I love that you've been using Furi OST in your videos

Delibird is my favorite Bug-type!

Crystal Kaito is back, But hardcore? Oh yea!

i would love to play this rom, crystal is by far my favourite pokemon game. is there any way to get it?

I do love how you are working in the ad sponsor, it's so smoove mcgroove haha.

There needs to be a version of pokemon where stats do not change--instead, only evs are gained, and moves are unlocked as you progress. This would create a vastly different experience playing. Not better, not worse, just different. Could make for a very fun nuzlocke! Even removes the need for rare candies.

Jan used Celeste music for the EK video and now he uses Risk of Rain 2 music in the CK video??? Respec

If you only knew how happy I get when i see a new upload.

alpharad has sent me to let you know you have more content to watch.

Risk of rain ost goes hard Nice choice Stevie

Dang you putting your ad in tandem with the run! *shakes fist* Tbh it's pretty clever lmao

Alpharad just made a new nuzlocke video want you to react to it Pokémon challenges

I know there's other changes, but the fact that the first thing you specifically mentioned is that you have infinite rare candies and full restores is mildly amusing.

Love the risk of rain 2 songs in the vid

i want jan himself to help create an unbeatable pokemon kaizo game with an insanely broken ai that no one can beat

I don't think they are meant to be ice tiles, but more like wind blowing you around, but there were probably tiles limitations

How is pchal daily so far behind that we already have a summary on the main channel without even a first video on daily? I guess that sub-athon really backed up the pipeline

“Have a wonderful night” posts video at 8am

the music in this one is really awesome once more, give the person who choses the music a raise

Im convince juan has a love hate relationship with this game

There are 14,000,000 universes in which PChal doesn’t beat every Nuzlockable Pokémon game/rom hack. This is that one

"if you're more of a RU-vid watcher... (eww)" man why'd you have to call me out like that
