I wish this game got finished and not abandoned. This hack deserved to go to kanto and be completed

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I wouldn’t say it was abandoned.They are still updating it, just not with kanto I suppose

[@blue_wolfproductions12]

Why no Kanto?!

big news, new version is being released this month (april 2024)

[@magnuspkmn]

I really enjoyed this playthrough!! We need to do more nuzlockes of ROM Hacks, my only hurdle is that I wish the documentation was better

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah same. This was was decent in all honestly, until I went to the most recent update, then things took a turn for the worst.

[@IAmDaFlare]

damn worth the wait, good job on nuzlocking it!

[@ThatGuyDean456]

I really enjoy these rom hack vanilla like Nuzlockes keep up the good work ❤

[@ThePoolo12]

I played this game so amazed and exited and i was so sad when i got to the end and there is no Kanto 😭😭

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I get that. But the Johto part was still legit

[@ThePoolo12]

@@NuzlockeJoe actually one of the best rom hacks I played

[@Jason-bd5iq]

I played it a couple years ago and they had stated they would possibly do kanto eventually. Sad they didn’t add it because they truly did a great job.

Just saw the fight against Mega Feraligatr, that's why I was looking when you chose your starter like if only you knew 😂 try using it if you do another run, it's OP

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I did not look up the mega forms before starting the run. I mean, I knew the Johto starters had one, but I wanted to be surprised. Dragon type feralligator is certainly legit

[@Gameboy_Graci]

Well now I’m curious about Meganium!

[@Gameboy_Graci]

Holy cow this run lol!!! I’m glad you were able to finish it. Congrats on the championship. I was hoping they would have new E4 as well but oh well 1/4 ain’t bad I guess.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah that was the most intense run I’ve had for a while!

[@solgaleo3533]

Fun fact: Aile’s design is just beta Jasmine from Spaceworld 97

[@NuzlockeJoe]

That is a fun fact. And thanks to you, I just went down a rabbit hole looking at all the unused pokemon sprites from spaceworld 97. Its funny that out of the three starters, chikorita is the only one that didnt change. And there a fair number of type effectiveness changes too that I wasn't aware of.

[@solgaleo3533]

@@NuzlockeJoe oh, I know a ton about the beta LMAO. There’s a TON more sprites aside from that within the 98 sprite archive and the 99 demo. It’s really interesting. And yeah, although people assumed it did change a little because of the recreation drawn by someone who played the demo, which, as with the others, was inaccurate.

[@pattyg1184]

Great video man!!! Do you mind if i share this on his podcast chat next time I listen to it?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Go right ahead!

[@floriandre3129]

nice video! But it would be nice if the team one the right side of the screen would match the actual team the whole time

[@user-iu3vw9zy4m]

I really loved this video!! I have a video idea that I haven't seen on KZbin and I think you're the perfect person to do this, Can you Beat Pokemon Yellow With Red's Heart Gold and Soul Silver Team?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Oh yeah, that is a good one! And it shouldn’t be too hard to swap around the sprites to play as red either.

[@brandonlogan3089]

Fire mouse is actually a fire porcupine and then evolves into what appears to be a fire badger or a fire weasel but could still very well be a mutant elongated fire porcupine.

[@Dwcdash]

If you’re planning on a play through of this game I would recommend Ledian. It’s so powerful In this rom. Power up punch, drain punch, Stardust punch and baton pass It’s soooo much fun

[@Oliebol85]

13:25 apparently its part fairy becaise that was super effective

[@MrRichieRides]

Also this is why I make save states (often) especially with hacks that can soft lock for no reason 😂 haha

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah in the future I likely will use save states for rom hacks. It's a habit I've gotten out of since starting nuzlockes because I obviously can't use them during battles

[@theReallygoodlawyer]

You can relearn the moves in poke centre

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I eventually found that out but it would have been nice earlier

[@Niall_Sene]

I remember I played this rom hack a while ago but I never got around to finishing it. I bad for you though, you lost so many mons, what a crazy run!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah, I barely finished it myself lol. That ending was rough

[@SochimaOkwara]

I wanna play this game, but is there a way to get a larvitar earlier than victory road? Like in hgss you can get it in the safari zone

[@SochimaOkwara]

Oh and the fishing rod so I can get horsea

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I'm guessing so, but not sure. You could try to look at the documentation in the discord

[@gesuno1948]

man i completed this game w a great team, just to find out its not finished ;(

[@Slickcactus]

30:40 I assume you are not aware of this but each gym leader actually does has ‘proper’ teams of high levelled pokemon. They just use pokemon of a lower level to give trainers a chance to earn their gym badges accordingly. Proof of this is how there are gym leader rematches. In rematch battles they use their proper team.

[@diegoc8795]

I've found this Rom Hack on Arcade Spot, but It's a shame that the data can't be saved

How do you mean it can’t be saved? Just on arcade spot?

[@diegoc8795]

@@NuzlockeJoe I mean that every time I saved the data and restarted the game it made me start again from the starter choice

Never heard of the game. Exctied to see what you do with it!

Its a sweet game tbh. though I am partial to johto

@@NuzlockeJoe I loved the game. Johto man too. Luckily third time was the charm!

[@marionbenson6094]

I am sorry for that...

[@EnvyBlack666]

Wait, which version of the hack is this? I have the latest one (may 2023) and the hud is completely different (not to mention pokemon up to gen 8+hisui)

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I actually beat this last summer, and just didn’t get around to publishing for a while. Though this version had gen 8 too, like obstagoon

[@MrRichieRides]

For me personally even tho Mudkip has been my favorite starter literally since ruby version came out and I first laid eyes on that cute little guy I… wait I had a point… oh ya in my opinion and experience gen 3 AAAAND Gen 4 are the best for over all gen 3 just 3 destroyers and great designs and I mean infernapeciacone of the greatest designed starters of all time and the torterra!??? Grass ground!!?? What!!?? And Empoleon even tho it’s my least fave stil amazing typing!!! The were spitting for two full generations with 3 and 4! And some of the other Pokémon in those gens are also some of the best to this day FlyGon Garchomp spiritomb salamance they really killed it with those two gens!! Anyway love the channel just subbed I love it already you just have a way with your words 😂❤

[@ivxnrs7236]

Where are you guys getting the full version or atleast up until kanto version mine only has till badge 6

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Maybe you are stuck somewhere? The discord link in the description will get you to the full game.

[@TheSonico20]

they probably gave luxray a psychic type because of his abilty to see through the walls. also, his name has lux in it, which means light, i dont know if a dark typing is appropiate for it

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I could see that I guess. He just always looked like a dark type to me.

[@inzo7856]

How do I play this on mobile I normally use myboy apps but it won't play it

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I’m not sure tbh. You could try the discord server for help

[@theReallygoodlawyer]

Use gba emulator

[@Firescizor]

I think you did pretty fine honestly. GS Chronicles is infamous for being one of the most bullshit nuzlocke games, mostly because it forces upon you some unfair fights against what frankly feels like Pokémon with the wrong speed stats. It pained me a little seeing things like freaking Mega Aerodactyl being outsped by non-scarf Mismagius... but oh well. Nonetheless, great video!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I can see that. Overall I still enjoyed it for sure, just some of the stats didn't make a ton of sense

[@Golden_Hydra]

A shame it's not complete...

[@LeeBoros]

Where is the site to download? The one i have now crashes

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I got it through the discord server. I put that link in the description

[@andrewweber9930]

Was playing it but stoped it glicthed so much

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Really? That sucks. I only had a few minor glitches, aside from the very last one. Maybe it's been updated since you last tried?

[@KEPaa46]

Is that gba game or ds

[@NuzlockeJoe]

It’s a gba game but with ds like graphics.

[@connermcgowen86]

What emulator do you use?

[@blacksheep7741]

How many pokemon you actually could have caught

[@NuzlockeJoe]

As in what generations of pokemon or how many for a nuzlocke? There are plenty of routes to get pokemon so that really isn't an issue

[@purehyper124]

51:24 Sorry, but What you should say is better.

[@blockchords5197]

it's a romhack, and has its own pokecommunity thread if you wanna check it out

[@nikaoharbour6962]

​@NuzlockeJoe it's a rom hack Gba hacks are rom Ds ones are fan games

[@videogameman72]

A romhack is an edited .rom file, a fan game is made from scratch, usually on RPGMaker. The original console has nothing to do with it. GS Chronicles is a romhack of FireRed.

Can you please stop saying that was not in the guide. The word challenge means something, you are supposed to do this without a guide that's how you really enjoy the game. I get it you are using a guide as you are trying to create content, but please don't break the fourth wall unnecessarily

[@Tublocks]

Womp womp

[@elCorciu]

Every nuzlocke content creator reads guides. The thing that annoyed me the most is that he literally said they patched the game during the run and ofc his guide is now outdated..

[@bestkill6888]

99% of nuzlockers use guides bc they’re already in a tough position. Why are you mad at a KZbinr “breaking the fourth wall”🤡😭😭

[@Danny43716]

🤡🤡🤡

[@morethanmunchies7053]

This challenge would be literally impossible without a guide or having memorized every trainers Pokemon and moves. Breaking the fourth wall helps with interaction for the audience, if it’s not for you, I’d stop watching KZbin
