Pokemon Crystal, but I can only use SHINIES?!

...This may have been a mistake.
Since around halfway through the original franchise nuzlocke series, I always had the thought in the back of my mind saying "You know what would be absolutely unhinged and hilarious? If we did this again with only shiny Pokemon." and the intrusive thoughts won. So here we are, Shiny Only Season 2 baby!

You never updated the team list on the side when you replaced Dunsparce with Celebi

[@acekingbones]

Season 3 will be only catching Pokémon with perfect IVs

[@blakesmith8487]

Ima be fair he’d never actually get it done but I’d respect the attempt.. don’t think anyone else has done such a thing

[@j.b.5422]

and season 4 will only be catching pokemon with horrible ivs.

[@cottle777]

Kinda this as the IVs determine shiny

[@peternicholas3719]

He catches every available shadow pokemon on the GameCube titles, all shiny, and then nuzlockes the entire series with those somehow lol

[@cottle777]

@@peternicholas3719 YES

[@ivanbluecool]

When nuzlocking the entire series was the easy mode for this meatball

[@PlayStationGMR]

Yeah super fun.

[@SomeUnsoberIdiot]

It's exactly the same difficulty, except now he has to waste more of his life for a different skin.

[@cozykomala]

Seeing Dunsparce rip and tear through the game is incredibly satisfying.

[@BurstSigil]

"Our next encounter is in Dark Cave-" Dunsparce! Dunsparce! "-I already have dupes of Geodude and Zubat-" Dunsparce! Dun- Wait its Crystal it's probably Teddiursa- "-It's not Teddiursa" DUNSPARCE!

[@lucky_kid_guy744]

With all the shiny geodudes. Someone should make a romhack of gen 2, and make a trainer that asks if you want to see there shiny execute, and it is just 6 shiny geodudes.

[@omegaplays1666]

Alternative title: Soloing most of Crystal with Shiny Gengar Nuzlocke

[@thes7984]

I don't think you need to explain or "justify" that you're using tools to speed the shiny hunt. It's a really tedious process and honestly you look a lot more happy when you're playing something else on stream while the bot does the job. From my point of view this challenge is really hard and you're pulling it off like a pro. Congratulations and I'll keep watching the streams

[@TheSphero]

Fun detail, Typhlosion and Charizard have exactly the same base stats. That makes Typhlosion vs Charizard fights strangely satisfying to me.

[@mattyorshin]

Yea wish typlosion was faster and higher sa with less pa

[@hhjan594]

Wow you are actually doing every single task for PLA professor Oak challenge? Well, uh, good luck for catching a sleeping Snorlax in Space Time Distortion in the Chrimson Mirelands, that's one mission I don't think I can do. (Out of space time distortions the first time you can find a sleepable wild snorlax is in the Icelands, but Pokemon CAN fall asleep in distortions so.......) Other than that, cases like evolve 4 Wyrdeers or Spam 100 strong style moves by Machamp is some fairly tame missions. Catching 15 Flying Togekiss on the top of Lake Verity before fighting Klevor may be a bit difficult but it's something you can pull it off by spamming wing balls.

[@donaldtNS]

Hitting 110 70% accurate moves with Raichu is the true hell in an all-tasks POC.

[@mango1951]

Really excited for when this series gets to gen 5 again! keep up the great work dude!

[@fiiyve]

Sad to see Zooger and I's shiny edits didn't make it into the video but this was a fun one regardless! Looking forward to the rest of the series :D

[@zachpro5475]

Who’s excited for the shorts wars court case

[@KC-pi6po]

Maybe for the encounter counter add a counter on screen with the floating (+[number]) for each phase how many encounters a shiny took to get. It's pretty had to follow all these numbers

[@muma-kitty1639]

this game really gave you the charlie brown trick or treating experience huh

[@w1nther930]

Imagine if he was masochistic enough to "Nuzlocke the entire pokemon Franchise, but i can only use shines and NO repeats", you know, just if he happened to get the same shiny encounter

[@giomarimp1196]

I don’t know if you are ironic but that’s what he is doing, he is doing No repeat and it happened that he got a shiny he already used

[@w1nther930]

You’re crazy Meatball but that makes sense as you are chaotic. Excited for season 2 of the nuzlocks!

[@potatoefanner2098]

I kinda wish they would do that thing they did for Mr. Game and Watch for Ghastly’s evolution line. You know, where it’s a 3D model that looks like a 2D model?

2:17 what genes did it get? The best outcome is FAAA which is max variable attack gene. The worst possible outcome might be 5AA0.

Will season three be every game but randomized?

[@michaelasmitty]

Please transfer this exact dunsparce up and use it as a shiny dudunsparce later. 3 segment time baby!

[@SargeWolf010]

Love this challenge

[@charleslemp2766]

Gen 5 will be super easy for no dupes, as regular Black and White only have new Mons from the gen

[@AmberStallion]

On my first legitimate Pokemon Team (which was really wonky and unbalanced), I had a Dunsparce. I'm sure it wasn't actually fantastic, but all I remember as a kid was destroying everything with strength. He felt powerful, but how accurate that was, I'll never know.

[@yamiryushi]

We need a "meatball" counter for every single shiny geodude!

[@cj_skywalker]

Glad to see you're finally working on that Professor Oak's challenge! You only have Legends Arceus and Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and then you are free! :D (Until Legends Z-A. XD)

[@PokemonNerd265]

Not to mention the other existing rom hacks such as Crystal Kaizo, BlazeBlack/VoltWhite and others if he decides to do more rom hacks.

[@wearytraveler6189]

Hello meatball! Are you using an Emulator for these runs or are you plugged into a gameboy on your pc? I’m a huge pokemon fan but i’d rather get back into games like ruby/sapphire/emerald on my pc since my game boys are long gone!

[@_refusing_humanity]

Next season should be catching ALL different forms of Spinda :)

[@Stratos134]

I'm gonna need the total count of shiny geodudes when this series ends.

Interesting facts about getting the events re-done. 😆

[@TheAnalyticalEngine]

Once again, Meatball is an absolute madlad

[@TheHonoredOneYT]

24:10 I have seen so many videos talking about SV having performance issues and showing them, but for some reason on my first play through (Physical cartridge day 1 of sv) I had no issues and didn’t have issues until a month afterwards. And now that I do it’s just like random screen bug like it spazzing out for a second then stopping. While I completely believe everyone else I’m still confused why I didn’t have that problem

[@DemonMankeyMan]

I've just realised something Colosseum/xd can have shiny status change after you catch them. I forsee much RNG manipulation in your future

[@redblackstripe]

Professor oak of ultra violet hack? The game has a full walkthrough guide with shinizer spots and such. Great port of firered/leafgreen

[@dragonlordjonerc]

I highly approve of you using the script to auto encounter. I don't like people wasting their time.

If your emulating the games and hunting on 4 screens, how do you transfer the save to virtual console?

[@JonVonBasslake]

Hey Meatball, have you ever played the Make a Good Mega Man Level games? The third main entry just came out.

[@johnnyjohnson4265]

Not sure if you plan on using hunting methods as I know you breed in previous parts but sweet scents+Dexnav in gen 6 will help alongside SOS in 7 and sandwiches in 9

I use a mix but preferably use an emulator. The GB Operator allows me to transfer saves between cartridge and PC, but I prefer the higher quality footage, speedup, and PKHex usage for accelerating grinding/item collection for video purposes.

I don’t really understand why you call this a nuzlocke. It’s not since you breed and predetermine your team. Just call it a shiny run with permadeath.

Does buying 25 bucks worth of gamer supps count towards the nickname thing?

So I add a minute to the timer for every $2.50 spent on GamerSupps through my affiliate link, just to incentivize it and give people a little more reason to try it. Nicknames are superchats/memberships only.
