Can I Beat Pokémon HeartGold with Gold's MANGA Team? - Hardcore Nuzlocke Challenge

Can I Beat Pokémon HeartGold Using Gold's Team from the Pokémon Manga?
Today I challenged myself to beat Pokémon HeartGold in a Hardcore Nuzlocke Challenge. Previously, I had completed challenge runs using Red and Blue's teams from the manga! As we move onto Generation II, I decided to challenge myself by completing Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver using Gold's team from his adventures, but in a Hardcore Nuzlocke Challenge.

You did a great job executing the background on the Manga. Giving people like myself that aren't familiar with the Manga a good perspective of the run without stealing the show. Sick video

[@robertbarrows6687]

For things like the Bug Catching contest in nuzlockes, it is usually a area that is allowed for a catch if its needed for a evolution item. You just release the Pokemon you caught there.

[@DannyRayqu]

Yeah I dont see the difference between that and adding the item into the game, it's easier I guess

[@Luke-we9gj]

@@DannyRayqu you can get shiny stones within the pokedome on specific days of the week. They're just 3000 BP. So with unlimited time, i think it's fine within new nuzlocke rules to bypass the pokeathlon grinding (since one could theoretically do them infinitely once they get to that point in the game) and just receive the stone as needed.

[@pokehorror7777]

Gold is one of my favorite protagonists in the Adventures manga simply because of his special skill: Hatcher. Basically he can bring out the best in any baby Pokémon that’s hatched and they also share Gold’s traits. His Togepi is a delinquent gambler who one-shot Lance’s Dragonite and Silver’s Tyranitar with Double-Edge, and his Pichu shares the same hairstyle as he does and learned Volt Tackle upon hatching.

[@magnuspkmn]

Gold's story is so fun! Gambling Togebo is so funny! Love what they did with his character

[@grapekoolaid6684]

Don’t forget about his awesome pool skills

[@Dz73zxxx]

And his skateboard skill Also his manners on girls lmao

[@DanielPereira-ey9nt]

Lyra isn't in the manga because she doesn't have a game to be named after, it might be the only piece of official media were Kris is used over her

[@joegreen3802]

@@DanielPereira-ey9nt that, and the HeartGold and Soulsilver arc wasn’t very long. (Arcs based on remakes only tend to focus on the new things) there really wouldn’t be a reason to add Lyra.

[@stylishgaby]

Gonna make a few notes as I go through to note my reactions or stuff I noticed - Since Gold got Pibu by breeding in the first place, I guess breeding a Pikachu for it would have been fair game, but fair enough :p Not like Pibu would have been a powerhouse anyways. Teddy is understandable though. - As always, I love how you go over the encounters origin and the story of the manga. The manga is some of the coolest stor- WTF IS FREDDY FAZBEAR DOING THERE - Pokemon Legends Jotho when ? - God that police sketch is certainly something. - XP management in Hardcore Nuzlockes with very limited pokemon is always a pain huh. - EZ badges - Quilava is one of the coolest middle stage designs, along with Grovyle (PMD !!!). - Togebo is a fucking terror, remember when that fucker just Double-Edged that Dragonite or the Tyranitar? Good times. - Polibo is indeed a really cool parallel to Red's Poli. - EZ Badges, V2. Never punished. - Never knew about that "ride Pokemon" theory from gen 1, interesting. - Ah, the monkey, monkey do what monkey want. - Lyra ? That's clearly Crystal though :p. - Sunflora is so much stronger in the manga than the games lmao. - Leech Seed carry let's goooo, Sunbo you go my guy 💪. Charm was good too. DOUBLE PERISH SONG FROM METRONOME AYO?? - EZ Badges V3 - Oh god I forgot how large tree sudowoodo was, dang. Alpha Pokemon before they were real I guess. - The enemy only goes for Scary Face until you're slower than it, hence why it stopped. - Nice crit Sudobo - Wow, how lucky, a random Sunstone on the ground! Totally not hacked in! (Don't worry I get it that makes sense :p) - The second you got surf, couldn't you have immediately gone to get the King's Rock? - Mantine sweep let's goooo !! Oh wait, Tibo got flinched nevermind. - That was risky, not gonna call that EZ lol. - Ah yes, the Rocket HQ section... - Oh Polibo is evolved anyways now, nice. - Pryce is a pushover, EZ Badges yet again. Playing around the crits, niceee :p - Sunbo the Steelix counter let's go ?? EZ badges !! - Thanks for catching all the Pokemon you can, just for the opportunity to give the lore for them, that's awesome! - Ah the Onyx Cloyster couple, nice. - Silver just instantly ruining your disguise is kinda funny lmao. - Remoraid !! - Makes me notice that Gold really didn't catch many Pokemon, unlike Red and Blue. - Togekiss let's go! No Arceus event though ? shame :p Would have been nice to evolve Togebo there for the lore drop. - Going back to older games before type changes always messes me up too. - EZ badges even with bad luck :p - Ho-Oh murderer - The level curve of this game is so strange, why are there level 36 enemies just before the league. - No one died yet, hopefully the league goes well !! - Will EZ, Koga EZ, Bruno EZ (safe to crit let's goo), Karen EZ (stall vs stall!) - Smooth plug btw! - Final Battle!! Hopefully no one dies 😭 - Nice flinches- WOO THE AI SWITCHED ?? GOOD JOB AI - Big shot btw - No crit let's goooo - Noooo a sacc :( Rip Sudobo :( I loved you :( - Sunbo too ??? Nooooo- 😭😭 Leech seed was useful thoughhh - - Polibo let's gooo!!! GGs!! Oh wait it's not over. Now it is. GGs!! - Pokerus moment, stay safe from the Volcarona Virus guys! - Tibo and Murbo let's go! - Good luck vs Red!! Aibo with the crit!! NOO AIBOOOO 😭😭😭 Welp :( Focus Blast didn't miss thank god. Tibo crit !! GGs!!!! Another fun video, thank you for those as always!! Yellow in Let's go Pikachu would be pretty fun, would be an opportunity for a stronger Pikachu than the one in FRLG. If that's possible, my vote goes to that. See you soon, also you should make a Discord !!

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you for your comment!! I didn't see it until now bc it was flagged and I had to approve it?! Regardless it was so fun to hear your perspective throughout the video! I appreciate you being here!! I was thinking about the Discord server... maybe after 10k? I feel like I'm too small of a channel for a dedicated server at this time but definitely down the line

[@mayborneflower]

11:58 - Oh that’s nothing. In the equivalent part of the Golden Boys manga, Gold and Whitney came across an even bigger Sudowoodo, though it cheated by caking itself in mud to look much bigger than it really was. Once they realized it was a Rock type, the excess mud came off and Sudowoodo turned out to be much smaller before getting caught by Gold.

Everytime I see those manga panels, I tear up just a little Those Poke Adventures Mangas were so GOATED

I would have watched this one sooner but I wanted to read the gen 2 adventure manga first (I’ve never seen it before despite knowing the manga’s existence since late 2018 and tbh, I kinda like it more than gen 1 and 3 manga). This was a really good video and I’m very excited to see a crystal team video (since she probably has the most interesting team in the entire manga imo).

[@blaineweaver1300]

Okay, where do you go to read the manga? Everywhere i used to go started repeating chapters after Yellow arc

great video bro, your editing is always impressive i wanna see you do a nuzlocke of lets go pikachu ( if you have it ) with yellow's team , because her team is kinda ass , so it would be fun to see . also more yellow content

[@Wut_not_woot]

Fun fact : ‘‘Aibo’’ ( Ambipom’s nickname ) directly translates to the word “ Pal “ or “ Partner “ in English. It shows how much Aipom means to Gold in the first place, it was his first Pokémon and his ace too. So…yeah. RIP partner. o7

[@matheusmonteiro582]

Hi man! I just loved your channel, can you explain how did you do the "Auto-Gambling" in Pokémon FireRed where you used Blue team?

[@Kaizul47]

Cool team and good strategy I think

[@mayborneflower]

Side note, if you try to do a Golden Boys run with Gold or Black, good luck! That manga cut off only six Gyms deep (Whitney and Chuck) and it barely counts because Black (Silver’s counterpart) was the one who fought the last two leaders. And by fought, I mean Whitney curbstomped him with Steeix in an unofficial battle and his actually official with Chuck’s Gym was against Gold as a substitute Gym Leader… which he also lost. Not as much to work with as with other manga.

[@Dz73zxxx]

Anything that reminds me of pokemon manga is definte instant like Gold probably the most unhinged MC ever 😂

Did they make two different versions of the manga or something? I feel like when I read the books as a kid the art looked a little different and gold had a skateboard I also don't remember him having anything to do with a pool cue.

[@ThatDragonGuy]

Silver's team in SoulSilver may do really well, but you'll have to watch out for Erika and Surge in Kanto. Green's team in Firered and Yellow's team in Leafgreen are gonna be interesting as hell, hopefully you get some good RNG lol.

Whenever fans complain about recent rivals taking the type disadvantaged starter, I like to remind them that Silver proves that the rival choosing the starter with a type advantage doesn't mean they'll be a strong rival.

[@PokeTwilight]

Really awesome video! Always liked the manga team but they weren't really viable even in-game. Also wanted to point out Bugsy is male in both manga and games. Gold initially mistakes him for a girl and asks him out on a date.

Bro could've caught a Binnacle so he could name it Binbo (It sounds close enough)

[@fortello7219]

Did you know? Charizard actually copies Typhlosion stats! It might be a bit hard to believe, but the truth of the matter is the special attack special defense split didn't exist in generation one. As a result the stats of Typhlosion come before Charizard who was retroactively made to have the same stats! (Though maybe GF gave all the gen 1 exclusives new stats first, but in terms of availability, Typhlosion did it first)
