Can Lance beat Pokémon Fire Red as a Hardcore Nuzlocke?

[@cullenhutchison6528]

I've always liked the How To Train Your Dragon book series better than the movies, so I appreciate the acknowledgement.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I actually only recently became familiar with the book series, because my son was obsessed with them for a time.

[@Niall_Sene]

I love the naming convention this team follows, Shenron and Toothless were the coolest imo.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks! I had to do some digging for a few of them

[@cullenhutchison6528]

I think it's fine that Dratini learned Twister early. After all, Lance's dragon types have been known to be precocious.

[@blacksheep7741]

Well technically he has 3 dragonites

[@Pokehound1]

Was perfect to watch while winding down on Christmas eve, the ancient power boosts too 😳 looking forward to Bruno!

[@benjaminknight8041]

Good video! Some seed inside my heart had hoped you'd face even a little resistance. Though, dragons are broken for over half the series.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I mean, altaria faced some resistance basically every time I tried to use it

[@Winningthewormoff]

Good luck on Bruno, I'm sure he's gotta have something you can do with those Onix, considering he has 2 of them lol

[@Canadian_Princess]

Have you considered doing longer videos? Like, I love your content, but sometimes its fun to see folks break down their decision making process. Often feels like these videos are just boss rushes and we miss out on some truly excellent content. :3

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah its hard to find a balance between a shorter, to the point video and a longer drawn out one. My older videos tended to be a bit longer, but recently I've been trying to keep most videos below 20 minutes. Not sure if its working tbh.

[@andersonantunesdeleu8591]

Hey Joe, I do prefer seeing you triumph over them all! Not suffering! I have to say, dude, I never understood why Lance has Charizard and Aerodactyl in his team! That really is not legit, at least in my opinion! Thank you for this fun content, Joe! I look forward to the next challenge video! Have a nice week!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I mean, they look kind of like dragons. At least charizard. Thanks for the encouragement!

[@andersonantunesdeleu8591]

@@NuzlockeJoe you're welcome, Joe! Yeah Charizard should be dragon/fire! Although I think Aerodactyl and Gyarados are like true monsters. But never mind, you did a great job anyway! I look forward to your next challenge!

[@JamesBomba-ch9jt]

Like the way he says pidgeotto when it says pigeot lol

[@richarddill692]

What's learning Twister early to someone who, in a few short years, will come to have not one, not two, but THREE illegal Dragonites on his team?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I know right? Lance is basically a member of team rocket

[@richarddill692]

@@NuzlockeJoe Speaking of Team Rocket, have you Nuzlocked FireRed Rocket Edition yet? I honestly can't remember if I've seen that yet or not.

[@joshuacain9845]

You also could’ve got flygon from the BW2 Champions tournament

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah that’s a good point. I mostly stuck with the kanto and Johto games

[@rb4734]

NuzLance Joe to the rescue! Leta go! You will rock it!

The savage power of the CAPE

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Sometimes a cape isn’t the best idea though

[@MarkofWisdom]

Oh hey, a flying type nuzlocke, neat. Good old Lance, one of the original flyboys of the series

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Flying type? I think you're forgetting about dratini, who is NOT a flyer. Come one man. He's clearly a dragon type trainer with a only a few pokemon who aren't dragons.

[@jaybuckner5205]

Great stuff! Always love your content. Already looking forward to the next vid

[@edmondasis2362]

I have a question where do you get a dragon scale it is normally locked in the post game?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I don’t 100% remember, but I either made it unnecessary or just cheated to get it

[@edmondasis2362]

@@NuzlockeJoe K ima just cheat a dragon scale

[@GenixgoldZ]

So.. I just learned that Dratini can learn thunerbolt and its been 20 years learned it only today 😅.. oh because I saw it could only learned thunder

[@BEFire_23]

Took me a while to play it lol I didnt realize the fire red version has to be 1.0 and not 1.1 so that confusrd me but I can play it now! 🎉

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Glad it worked out.

[@datinfodroidguy]

Smh not having Lance's signature move Hyper Beam

[@keithburley7078]

Nice Eragon ref.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks, I loved that series as a kid. I actually just finished reading Murtagh. it felt weird returning to the series after so many years.

[@keithburley7078]

@NuzlockeJoe feel the exact same way, gonna have to check out Murtagh.

[@Огузок1509_вл]

Technically charmander can be in your team as a starter because he use it in hg/ss team

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

If you need more names for Dragons, might I sugest Temeraire as one of them... (it's a criminally underrated book series, and it's one of my favorites)

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I’m a big fantasy fan, but was not familiar with this series

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

@@NuzlockeJoe It's basically the Napoleonic wars but with Dragons

You should have chose Squirtle he gets Blizzard at the end

I love that you named it Aldiuin

Seemed appropriate

There's a reason we don't talk about Bruno.

Yeah, cuz he does not deserve his elite 4 spot. The guys got two onix!

Great video And happy holidays Should do a Lance Johto and B2W2 as well Johto because is the Champion there B2W2 because in anime he won the PWT so would be cool to see if can in game as well

[@NuzlockeJoe]

It Wouk be easy enough to change a gen 4 Johto, because his sprites are already there! No idea how to hack gen 5 yet though

[@mazharsiddiqi7288]

@@NuzlockeJoe for B2W2 dragon type nuzlockes they usually just let themselves get earlier access to the dream world so can catch Swablu first and then go from there Same with HGSS and the PokeWalker

cant patch the rom.. tried on the squirrels version and the usa rom

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I did the patch like 2 days ago! Did you use version 1.1?

ya i just tried it

not working

What about round 2

I would defend Bruno but......even I was never that afraid of his team haha

Dragon cool

did you fix the ups patch

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I don't actually have access to the computer with the base rom, but I just checked and the USA 1.1 version of Fire red did not work, but the 1.0 version did. So you can try that one.
