It reminded me of finding Red in HG/SS, two champions about to face off in a final showdown.

@@jayce1850 yeeessssss

@@jayce1850 it reminded me of when jaiden fought the league in platinum

RU-vidr Pokémon tournament when?

@@davidjamesmagtibay6065 I need that in my life!

Except that he kept sobble instead of throwing away in the box until he’ll get a bug type.

THEN I'LL START A DRAGON AND GHOST TYPE MONOLOCKE. BECAUSE THEY ARE MY FAVORITE TYPES.

@@Chara_Dreemurr1 done that with dragon, ghost, and fighting. Currently doing steel and my next one is a bug team.

@@Chara_Dreemurr1 Dragon is probably the hardest monotype challenge to do, if only because there are so few dragons and it usually takes quite a while before you can catch your first dragon. Not sure when your earliest encounter with a dragon is in Galar, but I think USUM might be the game where you can have a Dragon type the earliest, Noibat in Verdant Cavern, after you beat the Totem Raticate/Gumshoos, although your starter will probably be about level 12-14 at that point so still a bit far in compared to other monotype challenges. There are only 6 types that you can do a monotype locke with where you CANNOT use your starter and have to replace it with the first encounter of your chosen type (at least if you're strict, casuals like Young Yong can still keep the original starter I guess), and these types are Bug, Dragon, Rock, Normal, Ice and Electric. Okay, actually, Normal and Electric Nuzlockes CAN be done with your starter if you play Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, obviously, so there are actually FOUR types you really CAN'T do strictly with your starter included. While Charizard does become a Fire/Dragon type in Mega evolution, you cannot choose Charizard as an original starter in a game where that form is accessible, plus I do not count Megas as being part of a monotype locke, since that's a temporary and optional form. None of the starters ever gain the Bug, Ice or Rock type, not even in alternate forms, so a Buglocke and Rocklocke must get a new starter as soon as possible. Bugs are usually found in the first or second route of the game, so that's easy enough. Rocks can also often be found pretty early, like Geodude in Ravaged Path or Oreburgh Gate in Sinnoh, Geodude in Route 46 or Dark Cave in Johto, Roggenrola in Wellspring Cave in Unova (though first Relic Passage in B2/W2 after getting 2 badges damn), Route 8 for Dwebble/Binacle in Kalos (which is also surprisingly late), Geodude in Mt. Moon in Kanto (also first accessible after getting the first badge), Geodude/Aron/Nosepass in Granite Cave in Hoenn (also after first badge), Roggenrola/Carbink/Rockruff in Ten Carat Hill in Alola (after beating the first Kahuna), and Chewtle in Route 2 in Galar. Okay, so in some regions Rock types are found pretty early while in others they're a bit late. Ice types are pretty much ALWAYS late game, though you may be able to find a few Pokémon early on that later become Ice, such as Crabrawler in Alola, Eevee (as early as you can get anyway), and I guess Vanillite in Rolling Fields in Galar during snowy weather. It appears the earliest Dragon types you can acquire in SwSh are in Rolling Fields as Dynamax battles, being Noibat/Axew/Jangmo-o/Goomy/Trapinch/Applin/Dreepy, in Den 37 (Common)/Den 64 (Rare). In fact, this den seems to be exclusively Dragon-types. Not sure what levels they typically are, but this would definitely be the earliest point where you can get a Dragon type for your Dragonlocke. Basically, when it comes to monotype challenges that are not Water, Grass or Fire, you gotta see which game you can use your starter with your chosen type (Steellocke = Piplup in Sinnoh, Fairylocke = Popplio in Alola, etc.), and if your chosen type is either Bug, Ice, Rock or Dragon, choose the region where you can get a Pokémon of that type the earliest, and perhaps preferably as many as possible. As we've seen, Galar is suitable for a Buglocke and Dragonlocke as well, and I think the best region to do an Icelocke in. I think Galar might also be the best region for a Rocklocke, as you can both find a Chewtle (which becomes Rock at 22) in Route 2, and you can also find 12 total Rock lines in Galar, depending on your version, but at least still about 10 lines. It's tough to find another region with a good amount of Rock types in it... Omg why did I write so much so sorry I'll stop now XD

@@Rubywing4 I'm not that strict. I'm planning ghost and dragons. While also allowing the first Pokemon I encounter. Also it probably won't be a nuzlocke. We will see. And I will be allowed to catch as many dragon and ghost types I want. I am not that strict. So if it is a nuzlocke. I will allow multiples of the same species. As to show how some Pokemon are better when you have extra members of said species. Because then. You get to experience the training of the first one all over again and get EVEN MORE ATTACHED. MAKING YOU FEEL AS IF THIS ONE IS THE MOST PRECIOUS ONE. I'm not super strict. And I will allow some things. BUT NO ITEMS IN BATTLE. I'M ALLOWED TO USE THE CAMPSITE BECAUSE EASIER EXP. HELD ITEMS ARE OK. IF I CATCH A POKEMON OF THE TYPE FOR THE CHALLENGE I STILL HAVE MY ONE CAPTURE OF A DIFFERENT POKEMON ON THAT ROUTE. SO YES. I CAN TRY TO GET A DIFFERENT MON.

Id say a good bet for a poison run would be gen 1 or 2. There are lots of poison types accessible early on in both games like gastly, tentacool, and if you’re not playing red, bellsprout.

Nice pfp RøäR

Good luck and also use goodra

@@Badateverythingjajajja That’s isn’t a poison type

Garbodor mvp, obviously.

Centiskorch was my first bug type on a playthrough and it was an.... adventure getting it lol

man, I really wanted a centiskorch on my first playthrough of sword, and I chose Scorbunny...but I just delt with the type overlap

Facts

Yeah, gen 5 and 7 were the biggest boost the type period wih gen 5 focusing in mons, while gen 7 focused on moves and some solid bugs

I remember using Skorupi and Drapion in my gen 4 team. Understand that i never used bug types before. In gen 5 i used Leavanny, Volcarona, Scavalier and Scolipede and i loved them. Gen 7 was my jam with Pincervolt, my Vikavolt, Sassy the Ribombee and Danzo the Golisopod. Now i dont have a switch and im here looking at Orbeetle, Centiscorch and Snom.....OH MY GOD I WANT A PLUSHIE OF SNOM!!!!!

Bug/fire was used before gen 7 and 8 because of a pokemon you put in the list of good gen 5 bug types

Eternatus and flygon should be bug/dragon I feel eternatus looks like a bug and flygon... I mean come on

Very true. It more paves the way for others to do so. It’s not copying, she inspired others who have this sort of passion and showed that it can be successful on RU-vid. Even if you don’t really care for Pokémon, these are just funny and brilliant animations.

As my language teacher once said, "Nothing in this world is truly original. Every creation is inspired by other things, intentionally and unintentionally."

It's a pretty good format for telling a Nuzlocke story too! You don't have to write a full comic series (though those are always fun!), you can also make a short animation showing your journey too!

Same

And then a drive versus young yong

@@EyeofArtemis818 OMG yes battle of the bug masters

Duel of the Fates.

the gauntlet has been dropped

Nice, same.

Not gonna lie, I think I might have seen his Young Yong Vid at least 15 times.

Me too

I love yugioh too

I'm pretty decent at pokemon but i do tend to not pay attention so... I lost my sobble trying to catch an oddish lol

Hmm

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH-

Shudf

Its sad to think that Alolan Exeggutor is a Dragon, and Charizard and Gyarados are not...

@@alucard8433 you speaking the truth my brother!!!!

When the new gen 8 pokédex were revealed prior to SwSh coming out, I saw Centiskorch and knew I was going to use it, but when I played it, I didn't know where to get it so when I found it in the 3rd gym I was really happy.

a WaterLocke, Is Genuinely broken. Just the Whole Rain Strategy can beat some hard rom hacks. Like Radical Red or Unbound or Inclement emerald

@@pandoraspixel3367 I did my Waterlocke in vanilla Platinum, and it went really well. I decided to make my first monotype challenge Water because: 1. Water only has 2 weaknesses 2. Platinum has like 17 or 18 different Water lines you can catch. 3. Water type combos can easily cancel out its own weaknesses via Water/Flying (Gyarados) and Water/Ground (Gastrodon). My League team ended up being Empoleon, Gyarados, Mantine, Tentacruel, Quagsire and Octillery. I ended up losing the Octillery to Aaron's Heracross (crit Megahorn + Close Combat I think) and my Quagsire to Lucian's Gallade (he predicted my switch and landed Leaf Blade). And then I swept Cynthia's team with my Dragon Dancing Gyarados. Tentacruel got 2x Toxic Spikes on Bertha (during Whiscash), Flint (during Houndoom) and Lucian (during Mr. Mime) and made me respect Tentacruel a lot more. And my Mantine survived a hit that I thought was going to kill her, from Bronzong, and then took it out. Other than my Quagsire and Octillery, I only lost my Whiscash, against Cyrus' Houndoom, first getting burned by Will-O-Wisp so Earthquake didn't take it out (because Houndoom's defense is lower than Sp.Def, so I figured EQ would do it), and then Whiscash got crit by Dark Pulse, took out the Houndoom, and then died to burn damage. My team also became physically fairly defensive because I mostly trained against Graveler and Onix/Steelix which gave me Defense EVs, so my Mantine ended up having almost as much Defense as Special Defense... Oops, I'm probably talking a bit too much XD I did record my Waterlocke League battles on my phone and then uploaded them to RU-vid (though I didn't notice that the phone split the video into three videos, so the beginning of the Cynthia battle is missing the Dragon Dance setup and Gyarados getting injured), if you're interested to see... ^^

he didn't

Yupp lol went right over his head he should watch some of these animes atleast then he'd know some of the references when he sees them.

Yeah ik lol. He seems to know some tho so I assume he doesn't hate it completely.

A lot of non-Bug Pokémon can learn Bug moves, that rule would open up a lot of options.

I think 3D pokemon games are easier to nuzlocke due to certain features. Like Pokemon Amie can give your Pokemon a chance to survive attacks at 1 HP.

I mean it’s a fun thing to animate and do though, it’s like a double challenge :3 triple if you include scripting

Jaiden is basically the whole insperation, if it weren't for her i would have never done my own (which i won)

What's wrong with being inspired by another youtuber to try something too? Jesus you people make youtube the worst. "OMG IT'S COPYING" Shut up

@@roughsofa1420 HAIL YEAH I'm gonna do a nuzlocke of brilliant diamond when I get it

I very much want it to be lol. Nuzlockes make for a great device to tell a fun story, I want ALL animators to make Nuzlock videos :D

Crustle knows they can never be with their hippodow friend anymore.
