Can Ash Ketchum Beat Pokemon Black to become the Unova Champion?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Check out the whole series here! kzbin.info/aero/PLOBSk5lRzwBdGslYxiZaT7SJGoHVeomqy&si=87CtxwW7fpBO08dS

[@drakkaar6676]

Rule no. 1 of Unova: We don't talk about Trip's Snivy.

[@NidoKnight]

No you talk about it and you talk about it right NOW! Pikachu was like level 80, Ash deserves the shame. That being said, while X&Y is still my favorite season of the anime B&W was pretty good, even if Ash was a huge loser the whole time.

Level Reset and Soft reboot ​@@NidoKnight

[@andersonantunesdeleu8591]

It's my pleasure to support you, Joe! Always! Very well done job btw! You made Ash champion once again! Aside from losing to a complete rookie trainer, Ash did great in the anime too! 😅

[@Venemofthe888]

You know how many episodes there were between Pikachu tying Latios to Pikachu losing to Trip's Snivy? 3 Episodes and they were the last 2 of the Sinnoh anime and the first one of Unova. 3 EPISODES

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Wow, that's rough

[@louisjefferies2733]

Biggest sin of the black and white was NO HILDA, she probably better than either Iris or Trip

[@AlexSteel-o9s]

Preach brother

[@painsufferingevenperhapsag2980]

People always ask about where Hilbert and Hilda are after the events of Black/White, and I like to think that after helping Looker with finding the Seven Sages after completing the Unova League, they officially join the International Police

[@roughanddrygobeyond4112]

@@painsufferingevenperhapsag2980 they're said to be out looking for N with their respective dragon, just as N is looking for them

[@painsufferingevenperhapsag2980]

@roughanddrygobeyond4112 That could very well mix in with the International Police idea, since N is still connected to Team Plasma and owns one of Unova's legendary dragons, it'd make sense for the two Unovan agents to try keeping tabs on him

[@LightshaverConstellation]

It still gets me every time because not only did the 3 girls I want to see in the anime not get shown(Hilda, Rosa and Gloria) I think having Hilda traveling with as would have been a much better way of showing things thru the eyes of new trainer then making ash dumber. They could have even had her to before the one female travel pal to do the gym challenge and let her and ash trade being the main focus of each Gym with ash having an easier time and even have them battle a few different leaders from each other since bw2 had a few new gym leaders and one could have battled cress while the other battled chili before having Cilan join the travel party.

[@elise6894]

0:33 love the opening song

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I chose my favorite song of the BW series for that

[@Giga-lemesh]

Ash Black actually sounds like a sick romhack name

[@Harricota]

LETS GO, IVE BEEN WAITING SIR

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

I would complain that you didn't give the pikachu in the layout the Unova Hat... But you did also make all these other custom sprites... Also thanks for not forgeting about why Pikachu lost to trip's snivy (Also I honestly liked the Black and White Anime... Team Rocket was actually a threat in that show...Also Cilan is better than brock... Change My Mind...)

[@LatinGiudo817]

"Cilan is better than Brock, change my mind" Gladly. Cilan is a "modernized" version of Brock. I found his "connoisseur" crap to be annoying af due to the fact that it was irrelevant to anything outside of the anime. I would say it was as annoying as the Contests, but at least those were a thing in the games. His team was trash and full of the most forgettable Pokemon (literally had to check Serebii to see if he had any other Pokemon besides Pansage and Crustle). Brock was far more relatable (caring for Pokemon, being thirsty over any waifu that breathed, etc) and had a wide range of good Pokemon

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

@@LatinGiudo817 Okay... I can admit that Cilan is a character that you either love or hate... Also I do think it's unfair to charactize Cilan as a Connoisseur being irrelevent and annoying... He's one of those characters that I as someone on the spectrum can self project onto... (He's a Train Nerd and I love him for that) And Pokemon Connoisseurs are an interesting concept... It seems like he'd be in a similar field of study to brock... (I might have been a bit over exagerating when I said he was better than brock...) I will say that I totally love the one sided rivalry he has with Burgandy... It's hilarious... and shipworthy Also I love the anime's version of Alder... His quote "It helps to enjoy life too" lives in my head so much...

[@TaaranZalavadiya]

Bro ash team sucks but your determination and strategy works it out.

[@Victor-dm3hm]

This would be my Unova Team: Samurott Simisage Braviary Darmanitan Krookodile Eelektross

[@Bossu]

This thumbnail text is one of the more funny random things i saw today

[@brunoartes7645]

Great vídeo nuzlocke Joe 🎉👍🏽

[@voltstorm2519]

"Cilan where you headed" "Wherever you go I go thems the rules Ash"

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Perks of being the main character!

[@trollomane]

Bianca has an animation where she pulls her hat down. That animation would play normally where iris' sprite glitches out

[@TARA-qp9nw]

Was waiting for black and white ❤

[@Niall_Sene]

Nooo! How unfortunate that you couldn't continue to change text because this mod was was really fun!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah that was too bad. On the bright side, not having to worry about changing text really sped up the process and saved my hours in the long run. At the expensive of a more complete game though

[@Niall_Sene]

@@NuzlockeJoe Well, at least the video was great as usual, That Trip battle at the end must have been so annoying to do over and over, so I'm glad you pulled through.

[@diegoc8795]

Honestly, I didn't find this series to be the crab everyone calls it, but compared to the others, it's actually the least successful.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Like every series it has its ups and downs

[@Venemofthe888]

its sandwiched inbetween Sinnoh & Kalos 2 series that are quite liked and Unova just feels like its a reset even to Ash when he shouldnt be this stupid

[@LightshaverConstellation]

Yeah. It's unfortunate because it was the one series I didn't watch right after the pervious series and I loved unova from the games so I wanted to go back and watch it at some point. But every single piece of info I see and find of the anime makes me glad I didn't watch it as almost every issue I see with it was something they could have solved with not too much effort

[@NidoKnight]

Nice sprite work dude

[@rb4734]

Ofcourse he can Joe! Ash is always the.... second finisher 😅

[@Its_Daniel-hn6gd]

At least Pikachu managed to beat Serperior, better than SNIVY

[@franciscojaviercastellanoe4289]

Finally😍😍 Thanks Joe. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Its_Daniel-hn6gd]

No matter how "bad" Unova ash was, black and white still my favorite season

[@potprince2169]

Never played the first black version, only black 2 but now i gotta play this one lol it looks way more fun

[@aureliamastergoomba1278]

36:51 Ash also won without cheesing the fight.

[@TheDripNeedsMe]

13:40 SHE SAID WHAAAAAAA

[@paxychile]

Nice video keep up the great videos

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks!

[@mazharsiddiqi7288]

Awesome video Gonna do a B2W2 version or is this the sole Unova Ash video? If Pokémon ever did have an Ash Black title I think it could be in Kanto with shiny black Charizard box art Pokémon

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I don't plan on doing B2W2, because I typically only do one ash video per region.

[@ninja31623]

Hell yea thanks for the upload

[@SonicMeters]

Cool video Very cool run hope you do more

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I plan to, not sure how to deal with gen 6 though

[@raymondjackson9087]

Love your ash vids

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks, I appreciate that!

[@elise6894]

1:10 you could’ve done Cameron ?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I could have, but iris was a lot easier because she already had a sprite!

[@exaltedfalcheon1793]

​@@NuzlockeJoe and no one likes Cameron.

[@diegoc8795]

31:42 My favorite Gym leader in this region

[@ירוןפרידמן-ב3ת]

I have strategy to defeat Trip's serperior with pikachu: You have to this time to over level pikachu to at least level 75 or something and use double team repeatedly 2 or 3 times ,so y9u have a chance to win. You have no choice but to overlevel pikachu for this battle.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah getting a higher level would have worked, but I wanted to try it at the same level.

[@ezrathefirstlionkeybladema4229]

Can Yami Yugi beat Yugioh Pokeduel

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Oh, I'll put that on the list!

[@dominicboscaino5491]

Didn’t Ash’s Tranquill evolved into Unfezant!?!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yep, eventually

[@Venemofthe888]

I swear it evolved around skylars gym

[@Rehabz4Quitterz]

I love this series

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks!

[@drift6785]

It's been like a decade plus. I still can't forgive gameloft for making ash an noobie and lose to a actual noobie Cameron that brought 5 Pokemon....

[@NuzlockeJoe]

But he had a secret weapon, ash had no chance.

[@absol102]

32:40 Lmaoo

[@jamta69]

Writer really did a forced under dog arc for ash in b/w

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I know right?

[@jamta69]

@NuzlockeJoe its especially stupendous after brocks special episode about their mom. Say stuff like how ash taught brock to over come type disadvantage and all.

[@cosmictraveler1146]

Is this mod playable? Would love to play it lmao Oh no tranquil was just that bad in the anime too Oh God the pikachu serperior loss streak was roughhhh

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah, there is a google drive link in the description with a patch you can download

[@Riftrender]

Kanto is based on Tokyo etc so it is just as urban as New York. Also Trip was the worst.

[@JP-ib7tb]

The hack rom faq says that Pikachu can be found in route 1, but I have only found Pidoves and Deerlings. I must be unlucky or it is impossible to get one currently

[@NuzlockeJoe]

You're correct, that file did not have Pikachu on route 1. I've updated it though, so the new patch should work.

[@tristianfigueroa6302]

How are you going to tackle the 3d games?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

No idea just yet. We’ll see

[@kelvinpaz4875]

Brother, it sticks to me when I enter the door of the first gym, what ever happened? or what base version of black Download?

[@JUDGERAMBO]

Ash will always be ten years old.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Basically. I forgot the episode, but there was on this series where he said he was 10, which just seems crazy to me!

[@Its_Daniel-hn6gd]

Ash isn't the only anime character that doesn't age

[@MegaMachiOnline]

I forgot Ash lost to Bianca’s father. 🪦

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah that was embarrassing...

[@Metarat]

Bro u gave her moves that could one shot you, ofc you lose

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah, I know it had to be difficult!

[@Metarat]

@ gg tho

[@LovethedemonWolf2.0]

the smarter version of ash

[@NuzlockeJoe]

That should be my twitter bio!

[@LovethedemonWolf2.0]

@ yup

[@Ace-vg3je]

Can you make breadan rom hack in pokomon black or black 2 plz ❤

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I'm going to take a break from gen 5 hacking for a bit, it takes a lot of work.

[@Ace-vg3je]

@NuzlockeJoe oh ok

[@jamiebrinkhuijsen6059]

And what about the return of Charizard? 😢

[@NuzlockeJoe]

That was one of those things I just decided to skip, because it didn't really change all that much. It's hard to know how long videos are going to be when your making these hacks

[@jamiebrinkhuijsen6059]

@NuzlockeJoe you could give it a battle against Iris like in the anime. Or a shoutout 🥰

[@Xmasparol]

I thought Ash would be black

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Nah man, I don't want to be cancelled!

[@tyrantkuwaga]

it is hog not dog

[@NightWalker69-n1p]

Aah, the ladies' man, just ditched cilan and Iris for a woman and her sister 😂😂😂😂😂 though I can't say I blame him she's very attractive anime standards I'm not on that waifu train and her sister follows the same suite so ngl ash got 2 attractive women and he didn't do anything bro is a player for life 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

[@youngcalle1]

lol😂😂 overlevveling

[@chiazalamchuks8426]

Please can you do pokemon X next.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I certainly will do Kalos next, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to hack it at all.

[@chiazalamchuks8426]

@NuzlockeJoe I get it hacking 3-D games are hard thaz fine even if I don't see 3-D Ash and a Greninja I'll still watch it cuz I love your content

[@StardustJackal]

This is a stupid video idea. "What if i literally did the exact same things ash did in the anime" wow.

[@pokefanmelody]
