[@aidoneus2844]

I love this game! Thanks for highlighting it! On a mono-fairy hardcore nuzlocke, I beat that Zenith fight with pokemon you had access to in this run. Chandelure (speed/sp att, choice specs) kills excadrill with flamethrower. He goes into groudon, so I swap in crustle (hp/def, eject button) to eat a precipice blade and clean swap to gorebyss (sp att/speed, focus sash). Set up shell smash while surviving a precipice blades, then kill with draco meteor - admittedly a 90% play. He brings in chandelure, so I switch to roserade (hp/sp def, eject button) expecting a shadow ball, but ate an energy ball instead for some reason, ejecting back into my own chandelure. You kill with earth power, kill volcarona with a few earth powers, kill blaziken with earth power while it swords dances (it never protects in my runs), and lastly finish off heatran with a final earth power. 2 mons to do the dirty work, 2 for eject buttons, and 2 in the back for backup plans / to soak exp with an exp share. Also, delta snorlax is incredibly busted. It has the thick fat ability, negating its weaknesses to fire and ice. It's just so freakin' bulky that it can 1-v-1 almost anything. It has access to incredible set-up moves like bulk up and belly drum, and healing from synthesis and drain punch. I usually forgo belly drum and just max its hp and use wood hammer - you have so much hp, the recoil isn't a problem. P.S. Inspired by your channel, I did my one and only Professor Oak challenge in this game! It had some really fun strategies to save time and get extra evolutions early. I made extensive notes, so if it's something you're interested in trying, hit me up and I'm happy to share. Keep up the great content!

[@emilysmith2965]

24:12 Focus Energy from Kingdra is definitely not “wasting time.” If Venusaur had gotten paralyzed there, because of Scope Lens + Focus Energy, that Kingdra ALWAYS CRITS. With Sniper. And has Hydro Pump and Draco Meteor to wreck your team (the stat drops don’t matter if it’s a crit). You gambled the whole run on parahax. Not sure there was any other choice, but… yeah. Recognize that.

[@Nuclearstomp]

I've been watching these videos and a LOT of battles would go south very quickly if he got crit. He doesn't really play around the crit very much in these runs.

This ROM adds a too much nostalgia in my life. The Delta Charizard, Delta Chandelure, Delta Haxorus, Mega Flygon, Delta Gallade and Scizor was my team, and the time I played this game was a much rememberable one.

[@fattiejones6725]

I honestly think the key to that final fight could have been delta weezing, cloud nine ignores desolate land and it can learn brine through tm, with speed and special attack evs and a choice specs from murk forest you should just barely be able to outspeed and get the oneshot after a free switchin to blades. Lvl 81 252 SpA Choice Specs Delta Weezing Brine vs. Lvl 79 0 HP / 0 SpD Groudon-Primal: 292-344 (107.7 - 126.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO. Still big props tho! this game is a nightmare to nuzlocke even without restrictions like delta only. Great vid!

[@Deluvenai]

Obviously late but no cloud nine doesn't ignore desolate land in insurgence Edit: in fact nothing ignores desolate land you can't counter it best you can do is (for delta type only) is delta snorlax thick fat losing fire type and ice type weaknesses

[@gc1823]

When I played this game, my team was: • Delta Venusaur (OP Calm Mind sweeper) • Delta Crustle (Cake) (for the design, but Shell Smash made it viable) • Talonflame • Flygon (Everybody used it, it's broken) • Shiny Mantine (Random shiny, good until Elite 4, where it was MVP with Toxic and high Sp. Def, that Kyurem was a joke) • Shiny Hydreigon (from the sidequest, obviously a good Mon, had the Life Orb a lot of the time because Mega Stone was post game. I also liked the symbolism of using the ace of the player's dad) Temporary Team members were Delta Gardevoir (had to use Double Team to beat the 2nd Gym, helpful for some other Battles too) and Delta Ludicolo (amazing design, but not a great mon, replaced by Hydreigon) Not a balanced team, but a fun one. Always liked Mantine but now I love it and want to Shiny Hunt it in an official game someday. Moral of the story is that Delta Venusaur is fantastic.

Honestly, used delta emolga against the groudon cultist and they carried me most of the fight.

Emolga is absolutely broken in the post game through after you can give it the hidden ability

[@mailcs06]

42:50 Fun fact: on Hard difficulty, Nora’s team they she uses to help you significantly improves compared to on normal mode. All of her Pokémon are EV trained, have perfect IVs, have beneficial natures, and have significantly more useful sets. Instead of her Leavany being armored, it has a focus sash, which, with that terrible defensive typing considering Taen has a Salamance and a Mega Typhlosion, comes out to be better than armor, since it means it is guaranteed to survive at least one hit, and has Dual Screens and Electroweb, meaning it can contribute significantly to your combined team’s tankiness, deal unresisted damage to Taen’s first 2 Pokémon, and slow them. Her Darmanitan has a choice scarf, and depending when it comes out, can absolutely annihilate massive threats like White Kyurem or Mega Typhlosion before they even get to move. Her Mega Flygon carries Drakon Voice instead of Dragon Pulse. While it can miss, it targets both foes instead of just one, benefits from Amplifier, and has much higher base power. If Kyurem and Zekrom are out and they don’t take it out before it moves, it can easily one shot both of them at the same time. Her Celebi has Nasty Plot and several strong special moves. Her Doublade evolves into Aegislash, has a weakness policy, and carries Iron Head, Shadow Sneak, King’s Shield, and most importantly, Wide Guard, which can stop Mega Typho from nuking everyone. Finally, her rather useless Florges is replaced by a far more useful Crobat, which possesses Tailwind, Super Fang, Confuse Ray, and Air Slash, and has a Focus Sash.

Loved the video, even if you weren't able to win. I was wondering if you were open to playing Pokemon AlteRed; from what I've seen it's a pretty under-rated fan game. It's Pokemon Fire Red with modern battle mechanics and QOL changes like reusable TMs and better HMs, and the kicker is that like the Delta Pokemon in Insurgence, every single Pokemon in AlteRed has a new type, stats, and sprite; there are even a couple Fakemon unique to AlteRed.

[@fishlysworld6151]

For the battle where you lost You could have used delta snorlax it has thick fat basically nullifying the fire weakness and it jas the highest base hp stat so its naturally bulky and you can teach it belly drum and drain punch

It didn’t show up is this video, but my favorite delta(and gen 5 Pokémon, coincidentally enough) is Delta Maractus. It’s just an adorable long-eared robot, instead of a rabbit-looking cactus. But, unfortunately, it’s extremely late in the game, so I imagine it doesn’t get used much. Poor Maractus.

[@mailcs06]

Can confirm that Muk could have been key for the second Zenith fight. On my own Deltas Only run on Hard Difficulty (but not as a nuzlocke), I trolled Zenith with Minimize. Muk took down most of his team, and I didn’t even have stockpile because I had forgotten that Delta Muk has it in its level up move pool. Earthquake and a Water Custom Move with grass regurgitation were enough for damage, and leftovers helped keep Muk alive. Also, Delta Vespiquen was another decent option, as it has levitate, granting immunity to ground moves, and gets Shift Gear, allowing it to set up on Excadrill and then sweep his entire team with Drill Run from a Move Tutor, which literally all of . Oddly enough, this is especially effective if you set the difficulty to Hard, and bait an earthquake with another steel type or an electric type, since Excadrill is choiced on Hard, but still is Zenith’s first Pokémon. Heatran does carry an air balloon on hard, but due to levitate, the thing can only even remotely threaten D.Vespiquen with Magma Storm, which I doubt would OHKO if you EV trained Vesp’s Sp.def or HP, allowing you to pop the balloon and resume the sweep. Don’t use all defensive EVs though, as Vesp needs Speed EVs for the Shift Gear setup to be viable, due to her abysmal base speed stat. EV training her speed raises it by like 50% However, I heard you say you were using Vespiquen for more of a tanky role, so I understand that the thought of completely changing her EV spread so she could serve as a Setup Sweeper instead probably didn’t even cross your mind. But if you ever redo this challenge, or come across another Pokémon with shift gear that seems like it can’t make good use of it due to low speed, know this: Shift Gear can turn even a very slow Pokémon fast after 1 or 2 uses, if you also EV train the Pokémon. Delta Vespiquen at +6 speed outpaces the entirety of Reukra’s team, which includes a Mewtwo that can outpace scarfers, when fully EV trained, even without an ideal speed IV, and with a neutral nature. And it only takes 3 turns of setup to get to that point.

[@EmeraldEmsiron]

1/5th into the video, and its interesting to see what all you miss or forget to grab, and in some parts undervalue. if you mention this later, I'll eat my words, but muk actually becomes very strong due to having a bunch of stacked damage options all being able to go at once, including a base 40 power free attack every attack of a particular type (chosen randomly when evolved). with early access to minimize and defensive options, muk becomes a deadly stall tactic, and it has access to toxic later on.

[@EmeraldEmsiron]

after finishing the video, some things for your next insurgence playthrough you should keep in mind if/when you wanna do another one. If you wanna use the level cap, switching the difficulty to hardmode in the options automatically blocks level-up past the max level unless you get absurdly lucky and level through it in one XP get. it also changes battles, so you can switch it back any time if you wanna stick with normal difficulty or leave it on hard for some really cool encounters like delta aron in the first gym. I've played a lot of this game, and yeah, where you died is completely understandable. I don't quite know what I'd do differently. one big thing that may help for your time in the future is debug mode. typically it's accessed through a particular cheat engine, and it can make gathering money, items, etc so much easier and more convenient. great video tho, and I do eat my words.

[@SomeBody08150]

Delta Venosaur carried my run through this game, being faster then i had expected and hitting hard enough too boot + Leech seed stall was instrumental for getting me to beat that Inverse Matchup battle. Delta Haxarous is very cool that, it was my only water type for most of the playthrough.

One thing that really helped was using a baton pass agility and Swords dance buffer mon, for which I got a Scolipede, so I could sweep more battles with slower but powerful pokémon like Gyarados, Volcarona, D. Gardevoir, or even the nearly immortal Swampert or the absurd Moxie Krookodile. Also, swift swim Kingdra, which unfortunately was nearly useless on the league because of it's ot so good move pool. Such a shame that not many of the delta mons are that absurd, though... Anyways, I totally recomend the game for anyone! It's absolutely amazing, guys! Keep up the awesome work, ChaoticMeatball! I love your nerdyness and watch ALL your videos! Thank you for all the amazing content!

[@Mars9471]

Couple of suggestions for the next run or a continuation of this run if your up to it. I’ve tried one of these before and got stuck in the same location you did. 1.) Delta Snorlax gets access to thick fat making the fire weakness now neutral. Pair that with a resistance to ground and rock with steel hitting neutral. If your snorlax doesn’t have it now you could just buy an ability capsule from the guy in murk Forrest where delta shinx was caught. I think it’s like 1000. Move sets you get access to bulk up wood hammer earthquake drain punch synthesis rest and sleep talk. Edit: you can also gain access to play rough because munchlax learns that at lvl 50 where snorlax would learn earthquake. Then you can use the move relearner in your secret base for earthquake 2.) mega delta bisharp is immune to ground and has rock fire and steel at neutral. Plus it outspeeds threats like excadrill who it can potentially one hit with a high jump kick (It’s been a bit since I played the game you sparked my interest again not gonna lie) although I’m not 100% it’ll OHKO. It may not be the best vs Groudon but it can take care of excadrill If I think of anything else I can reply to this comment

[@Mars9471]

One more thing I thought of later is delta vespiquen. A bulky mixed attacker that’s fire and steel with the levitate ability. I didn’t hear you list it and I don’t think it died. It has access to both shift gear for physical sweeper and calm mind if you need a special threat. It’s immune to ground quad resists steel while being neutral to rock and fire. Now I get that excadrill has mold breaker but at least on hard mode excadrill has a choice scarf so if you can bait it into using iron head you can switch in and make it switch out or get free setup. It also gets access to flash cannon flamethrower thunderbolt energy ball iron head flare blitz and can learn drill run by move tutor.

Not hating or anything the run was awesome and im surprised at how far you got and how well you did as this game is hard, my first run was with delta charmander and I went with a noctis team, built around the dark type sunny day weather effect, so seeing delta roserade was nostalgic :) Love the vids and keep up the good work.

I decided to do a Deltas Only run recently, and I started it as a Solo Run so I could get the normally post-game Fairy/Flying Delta Petilil as my starter. (I wanted to see how it would do in a PT, since I used both Regular Lilligant and the Fire/Water Delta Lilligant on my team during my first Insurgence PT. At the same time.) I named her Auby, after Aubrey from Omori. She started with Synchronize, which did very little for me because most of the Pokémon that were Poisoning, Paralyzing, and Burning me were of types immune to the status they were inflicting. I swapped it out for the far superior Serene Grace when I got to Helios city, since there’s a delibird there that can give you an ability capsule The trainer school tourney was absolutely brutal, even with Auby being like level 22, because Damian’s Luxio and Nora’s Trapinch’s rock slide kept shutting me down. I wanted to do the whole run on Hard, but I decided not to put it on hard until I got a full team because of the tourney. The only reason I was able to beat it was because of Roost, Feather Dance, and careful use of the limited super potions available at that point. I crushed the first gym first try with just Auby and Oasis, the Delta Grimer, who abused Minimize hax and Bulldoze. I didn't know D.Dwebble was available then. After beating Nora at the secret base town, I changed the difficulty to hard like I had wanted for 2 reasons: -I was able to get a full team of 6. -It stopped me from overleveling with the level trainer. Edit: Also, when I got my Delta Ralts, Basil (named after Basil from Omori), I kept him as a Ralts until level 32, which meant that just before evolving into Kirlia, he learned Ice Beam, 8 levels earlier than if I had let him evolve at the normal levels. He also has a Modest nature, and a perfect speed IV, so now he's an absolutely terrifying Bolt Beam Choice Scarf user. I just beat the League recently. And this was on hard, meaning I couldn't use the switch battle style, couldn't use items in battle, and the pokemon had extra competitive sets. My team was (in order of obtainment): -Auby the D.Lilligant♀: Serene Grace, King's Rock, Moonblast, Hurricane, Silver Wind, and Tailwind. Sassy nature (mostly bad). No proper EV training. Even with a bad nature and meh EV spread, she was still very good at disrupting, providing Tailwind, and fishing for Swind Pentaboosts. -Oasis the D.Muk♂: Regurgitation (Grass), Leftovers, Magnitude (since 30 PP for stalling W/ regurge), Wildfire, Minimize, and Stockpile. Sassy Nature (actually good), no proper EV training, but the EV spread he got naturally was pretty solid. Funny stall man. -Jane the D.Ambipom♀: Cursed Body, Life Orb/Rocky Helmet, Fake Out, Return, Shadow Claw, and Perish Song (Curse for most of the game). Rash Nature, formerly Sassy (Rash is better simply because no Speed decrease, even with far less Sp.Def and the +Sp.Atk being useless). EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Speed. She did a lot of trolling. Especially with Perish Song on Kayla since Pass transfers Perish, and on Reukra's Tyranitar so that a later member could set up when he switched it out. -Basil the D.Gardevoir♂: Lightning Rod, Choice Scarf, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, Earth Power, Livewire (never used lmao). Modest Nature (fuck yes). EVs: 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Speed. Had a natural Perfect speed IV, too. Absolutely devestating with over 300 Sp.Atk and effectively over 300 speed after scarf. Horrifyingly effective Scarf cleanup. Literally helped clean up vs every single member of the league, including Reukra and his D.Volcarona. I couldn't decide between Gardevoir and Gallade, so I let RNG decide. I kept resetting until I got one that was Modest or Timid for Garde, or until I got a Male one that was Adamant or Jolly for Gallade. I kept getting male ones (it was like 8 male encounters vs 2 female ones), and the first one with a good nature was Modest. -Demyx the D.Ludicolo♀: Magic Bounce, Choice Scarf, Water Spout, Future Sight, Psychic, and Trick. Timid Nature (she just by coincidence had that nature when I first got Magic Bounce). EVs: 252 Sp.Atk, 252 Speed. Magic Bounce reflected stealth rocks vs Eduard and Yuki, and Demyx OHKOed the setters with Water Spout. Water Spout also helped a lot vs other mons, and Future Sight was used once to help take out Kayla's team. It ended up hitting Mega Slowbro, but still did solid damage. -Bee the D.Vespiquen♀: Levitate, Expert Belt, Iron Head, Flare Blitz, Drill Run, and Shift Gear. Serious Nature. EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Speed. Terrifyingly powerful setup sweeper with Shift Gear. Demolished all of Reukra's team except after a good 20-25 attempts to get the luck required, which was, have Tyranitar miss the two stone edges it would attempt before switching out due to perish, allowing Bee to get 2.5x attack and 4x speed from 3 shift gears, and then after Bee KOed D.Haxorus and Kyurem, having Shadow Mewtwo miss focus blast, allowing me to KO it without losing HP. He sent in Ttar after, and, while I couldn't OHKO it for some reason it went for DDance, which I took as a prompt to Shift Gear again to offset the Attack lost from SMew2's Intimidate. He followed it with another Ddance, so I KOed TTar the turn after that. Then I nuked Mega Flygon with Flare Blitz, and went for Iron Head on D.Volc to try and flinch. It didn't flinch, but left it low enough that Basil was able to clean up with Scarf T-Bolt. (also Bee wasn't _just_ uncreatively named. There's a person who goes by Bee in a discord I frequent, so I named it after her.) Dear god soo much text.

Got an ad in the middle of your sponsor spot

[@MiguelHernandez-zm2ii]

Pokemon Detergent is a mod of this game with even more Deltas!

[@MARSHT0MP404]

18:45 who’s gonna tell him? I guess I will. Hey! Uh, meatball? Mega Rayquaza isn’t 4x weak to ice. It’s ability, Delta Stream, makes all moves that are super effective against flying types do half damage, effectively making ice a 2x weakness to Ray.

[@your_SecondShadow]

But my favourite delta is delta shiny muk because fun fact the pokemon it eats will also be shiny so i could flex having 2 shinys while only having 1

[@mh27400]

Audrey's theme is so dope in this game

[@bendaniels9225]

Pokémon Insurgence using Custom Mega Pokémon only would be a challenge

[@mailcs06]

45:25 Drizzle does actually go away after 5 turns In insurgence, but Calreath’s gym is unique and unfair in one way; Above water, the default weather condition in the gym at the start of the battle is rain instead of the usual clear skies, and I guess this rain is specifically coded to last until removed (or maybe just last an absurd number of turns). It’s pretty BS when you consider he has a goodra with hydration and rest, and especially on Hard difficulty, where he has a Choice Banded Swift Swim Delta Dragonite, which will probably outspeed and OHKO most Pokémon with a STAB Banded Rain Boosted Waterfall. I think I only managed to beat it because he swapped it in on a Thunderbolt from my Delta Gardevoir Basil. I had also reduced it to like half HP earlier in the fight (after which it got swapped out), I think using a Future Sight from my Delta Ludicolo, which I had used before he sent it out. I forget the specifics.

[@bcollins3811]

my favorites are delta ralts and delta litwick lines. they look so frickin cool

[@lilghost7828]

First vid of yours, entertaining throughout. Loved the yugioh themed nicknames

[@HorizonIncarnate]

Love seeing more insurgence runs.

[@blazegaming9880]

Delta haxorus and gardevoir will be your best bulks and good special attack

[@BennyOfMany116]

Dude you need to try this again, would love to see a winning attempt seeing as this game doesn't have much coverage on yt compared to other fan games and Rom hacks

[@austinfriley3480]

This is my favorite Tom hack ever

[@PLF__]

Gardevoir wasnt a range… it has a focus sash

[@charlottesfunandfreechannel]

Do the run again but add the rule as long as you got pokemon that haven't been used in the pc box You can carry on until all pokemon in the pc n your party are knocked out

[@MochiJelly4877]

I actually wanted to do this run a few weeks ago but couldn’t cause it couldn’t run on my computer ☺️

[@randomninja7632]

Major spoilers for the run Delta Pikachu and richu have cloud 9 and could learn aqua tail through totuoring. I haven't done the calculation but I'm almost confident that a lense richu could one shot. If not, then light ball Pikachu could have. Also, my 2 favorite deltas are delta typhlosion (I named mine shmit 2) and delta regice because it's just regice but he fucking melted.

[@peasantb100d]

As someone who plays insurgence frequently I never realized how important ev training is
