My favourite Sinnoh Pokémon is either Giratina or Garchomp. What’s yours?

[@landy3510]

Garchomp

[@scorchplays2905]

Infernape

[@Fatal_don_editor]

Cimchar

[@raptorzinqua3855]

Gliscor.

[@davidenania7386]

Great as always, I'd like to see a ghost only nuzlocke, if it's even possible

[@kenkr9449]

Lol yah i don't think its possible in most games because of how rare ghost types are.

[@ROBARIO]

You could do it in ALOLA

[@JTBLLC]

You can get gengar, froslass, dusknoir, drifblim, mismagius, and spiritomb all before the e4 so it’s definitely possible

[@charley2405]

I really like your editing style where the info on each move or team is in the corner, pretty solid way to give info while not babying people who know that stuff

[@mattsipatootsiesa1863]

The professor rowan needs grooming transition to the sponsor is lowkey smooth. Great video!

[@justacloveofgarlic9168]

This seems very difficult. My favourite Pokemon in sinnoh is definitely bunneary (CHAD) but other than that, I think shinx as it is adorable with the coolest shiny (in gen 4)

[@andrewwelch5302]

Cynthia reading the rules: "If you wanted to get stomped on, you need only have asked." As for my favourite Sinnoh Pokemon, I loved Piloswine since Silver, so imagine my reaction when I saw it's bigger, badder brother.

[@basshead9872]

Mamoswine is awesome, just wish it was a bit stronger

[@christinecao4499]

I remember when I was a kid, I never could figure out how to evolve Piloswine into a Mamoswine

[@TheSphero]

Mamoswine carried me so hard through the gen 2 remakes, it became almost a team staple when I replay them. This beast puts in work against even RED.

[@basshead9872]

@@TheSphero dang that’s awesome, to me he seemed like a glass cannon sort but the first time I used him was 4th gen and those are my hardest games

[@TheSphero]

@@basshead9872 Yeah, Thick Fat is its hidden ability, which don't exist in gen 4, so it leans more on its huge 110 base health then anything. Its a pokemon that how much you know about training makes a huge difference; Ice/Ground only resists poison, and is immune to electric, but if you train both its defenses you have basically a toxipex/shuckle defenses with a bit more then double to QUINTUPLE the health, 130 base attack (higher then Arcanine and Gyarados, and only 4 points lower then Tyranitar and Dragonite), and capable of hitting everything but bug, water, and fairy super effectively with STAB Ice attack of choice, STAB earthquake, Superpower, and Knock Off. Or you can use iron head for the fairy coverage. Or you can even use it as a setting for light screen and reflect, to make it even tankier, since Ice/Ground STAB hits a huge number of things anyways. Really, its biggest problem is that 4 moves is not nearly enough...

[@kaybez897]

This was insane! Great video as always

[@urek9808]

Love your videos!!!!! This kind of video was also great! LOVED IT!

[@Acs2004]

What was your original plan for bertha before your infernape absolutely road-rollered her entire team? BTW my favourite is staraptor.

[@cullenhutchison6528]

In gen 6 and beyond, EXP isn't split between Pokémon when you switch out--all Pokémon who participate get full EXP, and the Pokémon who don't get half EXP if the EXP Share is active (which is permanent starting with the Let's Go games).

[@jamesfowler6785]

Great video, the comedy is getting better and better

[@justacloveofgarlic9168]

Can we appreciate the powderpuff girls name for infernape? The names Keegan comes up with are always great! Awesome vid, can't wait for the next one!

[@vinnie250]

Bro, i love keegan j videos

[@nickalcock8325]

Great editing!

[@PickyPiggy2000]

Pls do more of these nuzlockes

[@dervakommtvonhinten517]

aside from overleveling this sounds like me running my first pokemon editions xD. just having your starter and curb stomping everyone with it :P

[@glowstonelovepad9294]

0:20 I am a murderer. But I'm already subscribed.

[@ph-swaggg4552]

I'm a subscriber of you Your videos are the best that's why i watch them Keep up the good work man Stay safe and be healthy always

[@Just-Jamel]

11:18 I don’t know why I laughed so hard at that but 😂😂😂

[@owoberon4947]

17:48 power of friendship outside a anime? THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!

[@benjybot5077]

This is the hardest challenge i’ve seen anyone done nice

[@KeeganJ]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@gooypoop4]

Amazing vid as usual good sir! Fav shinnoh mon: the best starter, turtwig. Yes, he is the best… fight me!

[@choklat4606]

Dude I legit just made a sandwich and was looking for something to watch it with Keegan always uploads at the right time! Also weaville is definitely my favourite!(gliscor and infernape are close seconds)

[@KeeganJ]

Was your sandwich good?

[@LegendBiscuits]

Great video Keegan! Keep them coming. You have such a good comedic style, always makes me laugh out loud. I wish they would have an option to disable those affection mechanics, kinda defats the point of having a challenging elite four.

[@KeeganJ]

Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it

[@weebrahim]

btw you can use some berries i think to reduce friendship so that the affection mechanic doesnt affect your runs against the big battles or u can let your pokes die multiple times to reduce friendship too i think, in this ruleset where its not a nuzlocke

[@LegendBiscuits]

Good idea!

[@antoinewilliams290]

You are a madman and yet respect.

[@graysonbogert5288]

Keegan getting sponsored. You love to see it

[@KeeganJ]

We do love to $ee it

[@mallowtonmouse]

Awh the friendship mechanic is so op

[@AlexM-fv8lp]

Alternate title - blissey screams at sinnoh and wins the game!

[@holytaco239]

Great vid even on a hard challenge

[@Zeturic]

It's worth mentioning that experience splitting was removed from the series in XY and hasn't been in any games since.

[@dunsparcedude474]

Blissed before Cynthia: *beautiful singing* After: AAAAAAAAAAAA x 2648 Db

[@MortyChallenges]

Funny to see nuzlockers do these runs and still avoid sacking mons lol

[@KeeganJ]

At some level it's hard wired in my brain - Letting things go down feels really strange :')

[@Onebadterran]

8:40 Super-Hobo, superpower of getting people to pay for everything for him

[@weebrahim]

Naive is a decent nature for chimchar? colour me surprised, depends on your strategies i guess

[@KeeganJ]

I basically just wanted a nature that I could run a mixed attacker set on because when I started, I didn't know what my 'end game' would look like. In the end, I ran a physical set so naive wasn't perfect, just flexible at the time :)

[@captain2tall956]

Yeah Naive is a good nature for him. Infernape is a mixed attacker/glass cannon. Just like Quiet is probably the best option for Piplup, because it's attack stat is actually usable and it's lowest stat is speed, so making it's speed worse to boost another stat is the best way to go, plus makes it work better in trick room

[@sir_-rushalot8271]

Flints infernape is also iron fists 😂

[@tyrano1982]

Love mechanics make things.... uninteresting but a win is a win.

[@frog9782]

this channel is so addictive

[@alfiesmullet1311]

It's cool you can get mew/jirachi just like that if you've played previous games but I feel like they should've at least kept them locked until after the elite 4

[@Kanbei11]

I disagree, there just isn't that much of the game left after the elite 4. At least you can use them on your team if you want

[@mitsunitaiko1742]

hold on really? I didn't play the remake, I thought it was a joke

[@D3vilB4sket]

Bruh my heart skipped a beat when Garchomp landed that Earthquake

[@LegoReader12345hello]

In my playthrough, the game was challening, I made sure my pokemon didn't overlevel, I never used items, and I capped my pokemon to match the number of the gym leaders pokemon. Indeed through this I suffered several loses but I had fun for the challenge. Cynthia was very strong, I beated her by my third try

[@cyrpxcgamzr735]

Guys lets help Keegan with the 200k mark

[@aappaapp6627]

"How does Blissey solo a gym?" "With cheese, Mr squidward, with cheese"

[@NitishKumar-wh3nr]

Oh man one word Extreme

[@jaygamer2474]

The game is already hard u just made it harder the champion is ruthless too but it’s a good trait that ur always up to a challenge and believe in yourself enough too not cheat

[@cliffphps7447]

You sir are a Pokémon master

[@mitsospro2860]

Fav sinnoh pokemon is Luxray For sure

[@TheAndrewColletteShow]

Nice to know another poketuber is...trimmed 😏

[@tinaokwara2641]

... ur Sus Andrew also hi

[@lyndabenefield]

my fav sinnoh pokemon is all of them

[@Lucas-ip8zz]

Woww i saw at the beginning my own name 😂💪 this is my first time on this channel and already like it haha

[@zillurrahaman9770]

Probably piplup with pluck+work up and some luck will do against gardenia

[@urek9808]

AMAZING VIDEO

[@jonasthoresen6912]

Just bought the set because of your video and i used the discount code

[@firelifeblizzard8782]

How'd you survive the elite 4 sandstorm on only 1 hp? Did you heal?

[@memelissa7169]

Probably affection

[@Stormbo_the_cat]

-no catching -no money - no overlevelling -no battle items -no breeding - no legendary Pokémon -no shift mode - and most importantly, no fun 🤩

[@blueknock]

Fav Sinnoh pkm is Lucario

[@d_shirsh1]

nice number of subs

[@free2playgamer13]

Is this guy a pokemon genius

[@attssir]

Try doing a hard ore nuzlock withoit capturing or trading Pokémon, you choose which gen :P

[@redxd7108]

EGG POWER🤩

[@bob.el_gaming1140]

FIRE ONLY NUZLOCKE

[@weebrahim]

For Bertha your infernape became Ash's infernape hehe

[@My1xT]

exp dont split in BDSP, you either get half if you didnt battle or full if you did

[@shironeko1843]

Torterra is my favorite Pokémon. It was my first starter and is named after my tortoise Patrick. Although this Torterra is now trapped in Pokémon Omega Ruby.

[@justacloveofgarlic9168]

What about transferring into home, from bank, when home support for bdsp comes out?

[@shironeko1843]

@@justacloveofgarlic9168 my 3DS is dead and I'm not playing anymore, I even don't have a Switch

[@mathofmechs]

Vid idea: pokemon bdsp as either diamond or pearl They are from the pokemon manga

[@vihaansudhakar8644]

Ah, classic mojo jojo, who remembers him from powerpuff girls?

[@Twinklethefox9022]

Even though i already think bdsp is hard during the elite 4 and champion.... I'll still watch this

[@TheSphero]

My favorite Sinnoh pokemon is a toss-up between Leafeon, Spiritomb, Magnezone, and Probopass. Grass-type is my favorite type, and Leafeon is a beast of a tank; it has more defense then Cresselia, Dialga, Zacian, and Zygarde. Also, equal to Rhyperior and Metagross. Spiritomb is just a cool pokemon done dirty by how convoluted its been made to obtain through the games. When the last to unlock through watts, 100000 required pokewalker course is the least troublesome way to obtain it without post-story encounters, there is a problem. Magnezone is a really solid pokemon. Good offense, really good utility, and can pull some great shenanigans with Sturdy + Mirror Coat that were key in winning me a tournament. Probopass, its the only magnetic field evolution that doesn't use a thunderstone these days. Funny groucho-glasses mon that can surprise you. Mamoswine is cool too, carried me through the gen 2 remakes so hard...

[@joshtsf6978]

My favorite Pokémon in Singh is definitely gible, it just reminds me of a little fat baby

[@efehanok3491]

my favorite sinnoh starter ch,mchar beacuse infernape my favorite pokemon and my first pokemon game was pokemon platinum and i picked chimchar as my starter

[@grundgutigertv6170]

12:30 and dont forget perfect abilities...

[@quark1010_]

No catching no money is the pokemon equivalent to the real life challenge no work no money.

[@yamiryushi]

What crimes Lucario committed you ask? He aura sphered a bitch, that's what. Straight up murder doggo.

[@mcswaddelz4329]

Alpharad did a video only using Piplup and it took a while but he beat the entire game just thought I’d say

[@KKeerat]

Too much Smart Sit up.

[@huhhhhhh5225]

The affection mechanics means that pokemon actually have the chance to obliberate all battles and defeat any other pokemon. Its just that they dont really try.

[@charliecoulson3201]

Aaron is evil when u beat game with only piplup

On let’s go pikachu I was scared as f*** for the elite four thank god the snake dude gives u exclusive moves

Wait how he healed his pokemons when was fighting ....because according to rule he can't use any money...so he can't buy potions....so how was he doing it???
