  1. I'm not faulting him for missing them, just saying he needs to find them if he's so dead-set on this challenge mode where he has to win every fight on his first try. If he doesn't read the Desert Field notes in particular, he risks: > Losing Tiki to field-boosted Sand Tomb because he didn't even consider it'd be a threat, especially if he doesn't notice the Super Potion guy > Losing someone to an attack he didn't expect to be field-boosted, like Needle Arm or Pin Missile > Missing out on Kiki's Sand Attack being actually useful for once And that's just for his next fight, much less the rest of the game. I am faulting him for missing the department store though it was my big chance to be relevant and he walked right the frick past it
  2. Had time to watch the whole video, he really did walk right past the department store Well it's good that we finally have a youtuber who actually looks at the field effect guide! He missed four of them though, and one of them is for Florina's field which he's REALLY gonna want to see. Maybe a should tell him about those... and the fact that he can use common candies, too.
  3. I currently don't have time to watch the whole thing; did he REALLY just walk past the department store? Well if he did, let him know about it and also my sticker guide. I just updated it to be more spoiler-safe for new players like him.
  4. He hasn't lost a Pokemon yet and I don't feel like watching old videos looking for a death, so does someone who actually follows him know if he releases Pokemon when they die? Or just box them? If he boxes them he could pick them back up when (if?) he runs out of Pokemon and the Nuzloke becomes impossible. If he releases them we have a problem. Also HOW has he still not put 2 and 2 together on common candies? It's one thing to just be dumb, but every other comment is screaming it at him and he doesn't pre-record these.
  5. This guy isn't the brightest bulb in the box is he? >haha why would anyone use a Common Candy it lowers a Pokemon's level, how useless >oh no my Pokemon is too high level and won't listen to me! Whatever will I do? If only there was a workaround to this! >oh hey cool the game handed me an explanation on field effects including one for the boss I'm about to fight >lemme just not read it Inb4 he continues to complain about a lack of grinding spots even after unlocking the re-battle trainers. Although I don't think the game explicitly tells you about that so it'd be more understandable.
  6. Oops, looks like I missed Ame's birthday.   Happy belated birthday Ame!

  7. This is actually hilarious, I didn't even know such hijinks could be found before Julia- no, before even meeting Fern. I'm looking forward to what laughs are to had when he actually gets into the game. >Local man thinks he's gonna nuzlocke Reborn blind >People warn him >He tells them they're wrong because he beat the tutorial battle >Spends all his money on a Premier ball and 3 Potions >Two seconds in, almost dies to a Ducklett >Uses all 3 Potions to survive the Ducklett >Now he's out of items and money >Has big brained new plan: "I'll just level grind a bunch". Doesn't realize yet how restrictive the level cap is >Now he's overlevel before Julia and has to spend the money he gets back on Common Candies* Of course it'll stop being funny if he actually quits the game after getting wiped... When he almost lost to Ducklett he said something like "see you guys in the next game haha" and I'm not sure if he was joking. *This actually hasn't happened yet, in fact it could be even worse: he could spend all his money on more Potions and be unable to buy Common Candies.
  8. I don't actually watch this dude's videos, but it's great to have another big source of publicity. Hopefully this one doesn't get increasingly disillusioned with the game as he plays before quitting because of how much the glass factory sequence sucks. Notice he mentions that he WANTS to keep playing, but won't if the video doesn't "get enough likes". I dunno how much is enough for him, but looking at his other recent videos it's outdoing all of them in terms of views. Hopefully that translates to enough likes.
  9. You'll never guess what my encounter for Digglet's Tunnel was.  A 5th Zubat.

     

    Also RIP Red Eagle the Fletchinder (level 18-26)  Sacrificed herself to defeat the Totem Lurantis

  10. I've lost way too many Pokemon now, just from trying to level grind them to replace team members who died in ACTUAL battles.

     

    SOS battles SUUUUUUCK for Nuzlockes.

  11. Finally unlocked Poke-Pelago and... uh oh, I've been releasing my Pokemon as they die so I don't have enough to make the berry field.  Well then.

  12. Aw shit brooklet hill devastated me and I didn't even fight the Totem yet.  I knew I shouldn't have put off grinding.

     

    RIP "Your Waifu" the Grimer (level 7-18) was too busy trying to keep Zubat alive in a double battle and didn't pay attention to her HP until it was too late.

     

    RIP "Brobat" the Zubat (level 8-19) At least I have three more of the things lol

  13. Man these first encounters aren't working out for me.  Two Lilipups and neither even had the decency to have Pickup

  14. First island down, only losses so far were that Wingull and a Yungoos I had only caught a few minutes before he died.

     

    RIP Bigly (level 9-10)  Seriously HOW did that tackle kill you from full HP, the thing was the same level and you only had -1 defense

  15. The idea of a Nuzlocke's first-pokemon rule is to get you to use stuff you wouldn't use normally, but so far it's all been stuff I've used before.

     

    Also I've got 4 Zubats and counting.

    1. Commander

      Commander

      Dupes clause is useful for that. Personally, I think it's more for people less skilled as it ends up having you in situations that aren't favorable. Oh dear lord Mossdeep Slaughterhouse brings back memories.

    2. CURIE

      CURIE

      Nah, man.  Dupe's clause is for people who can't handle the rules and want an exemption.

      alternatively for people who are sick of the fucking sixth poochyena in three gyms jesus fuck emerald why did you axe zigzagoon spawns

  16. Except it's a 1:1 right down to the last vector. Look at the wiskers, it's a dead giveaway. To say all these models were """recreated""" with this level of complete, exact sameness, is laughable. They copy-pasted it. They're lying, it's obvious, they know it's obvious, and they don't care.
  17. Apparently in a Famitsu interview, Oomori stated the Pokemon models were made from scratch when they brought the series to the switch. It just a coincidence that they're all frame-perfect copies of the 3ds models/animations right down to the tiniest details. Refer to my earlier comment about these people thinking you're stupid. A bit of good news though, look at the last part I included in my screenshot. They're already backpedalling. It went from "no, we're NOT patching them in after launch" to "we haven't DECIDED whether to patch them in after launch"
  18. Well, this Nuzlocke's not off to a great start.  Half the team is Grimers and I've already lost a Wingull to being an idiot while level grinding.

     

    RIP Linda level (5-6) you basically didn't do anything.

     

    At least I beat Ilima without a death.  That guy's Smeargle is crazy strong for something so early in the game.

  19. If you were nuzlocking gen 7, would you count "Route 1" and "Route 1: Hau'oli Outskirts" as two separate areas?  They're each a different section on  the map, they each have their own title cards, and each a different description, but at the same time...  they're both Route 1...

      That's a bit of a tricky one.  I might say no, but looking at Bulbapedia, apparently they got different(?) descriptions in USUM.  Definitely an iffy call.  I don't know how many other areas you can catch mons in Gen 7 and I don't really Nuzlocke but you could probably count it as a technicality, especially if the game doesn't have as many areas as other games.......maybe?

      i generally tend to count areas with the same name as the same area, but i make an exception for route 1 in alola. not fun at all to carry around only your starter until trainers school.

    4. Seal

      There are a lot of sub area's and I think there won't be a lot of Pokemon to catch if you don't count sub area's.

  20. After 3 and a half years of forgetting about it completely, I've finally finished the 6th gen monorun.  Until episode 19 of course.

  21. UPDATE 96: Not much, really
  22. UPDATE 95: THE REMATCH OF THE CENTURY
  23. UPDATE 94: THE MOST EMBARRASSING FIGHT SO FAR
  24. Holy crap you're right, it was in one of the trailers. Maybe this thing is a third evolution of the line? That'd be awesome! ...Unless he loses unburden. Or if Marill is deleted so you can't breed Belly Drum onto him. But if the latter happens you can still breed a Belly Drum Slurpuff from the 3ds games.
