I think that to have a more exciting nuzlocke, u should try to include everything up till the volo fight, as it’s the hardest fight in the game

Unfortunately that only adds one more fight to the game and about 20h of more grinding :/

[@greyscaleadaven]

Interesting to see how a nuzlocke goes in this game! Nice to see wyrdeer and zoroark on the same team being used bc I used both of them in my playthrough as well. I think a change to make it a bit more challenging could be to at least defeat every noble one time in actual battle. No matter what your cycles are, you should get at least one chance to battle it directly outside of the spear pillar fight. if you don't just maybe reset because once you learn the patterns for the nobles they become pretty easy. Also the "post game" fight (I kind of consider it the actual ending bc you meet the real villain and get to see their motivations) would be interesting to see tackled as well though it is dauntingly difficult even at its level cap of 70.

[@zes3813]

[@3xpoc3nt3r]

Respect for Nuzlocking this game, because it's so much grind for very few battles. It's definitely a much larger time commitment than other games and feels like one of those games you would only want to play once. Good stuff

[@Ramperdos]

I would've preferred to see the Noble fights, because those and Alphas were the only truly dangerous things in the whole main game. And wouldn't drowning basically be a game over? ;)

[@wbk1394]

technically TECHNICALLY it doesn't cause a whiteout, so drowning is fine. But be more careful, antlerboy

[@CatLover-lk9gz]

Personally, I don't like to count knockouts in the overworld. Long as pokemon are still alive its fine. Don't get me wrong, feel free if your up to the challenge. But I would much rather see someone get defeated in a pokemon battle, Instead of just slightly walking of a cliff. This is pokemon, Not hardcore minecraft...

[@jupistar756]

I mean drowning doesnt cause u to lose satchels aka dying if it did satchels would be everywhere (cuz we all drowned before)

[@hybriddemon7649]

That Schlatt slander may have escaped everyone else's attention, but not mine. Good one, Antler, your jokes are very good and *I* appreciate them all

[@thayankathirchelvan6298]

Spoilers for those who haven't played the game: Imagine if the Volo fight wasn't a post game battle. Nuzlockes would be damn near impossible.

[@thstan4062]

I know this was six months ago, but agreed, it’s so strange he doesn’t even acknowledge it

[@makikomaaki]

I've been avoiding PLA videos to avoid spoilers, but now that I've finished the game, it's time to binge :D I'd like to know how Nuzlockes--especially with gimmicks like monotype--would be viable with the star rank system. Is it doable just via battling and evolving the mons we have? Great content as always, looking forward to more nuzlocke videos! :D

[@B0BBYJ4CK]

Normal types are the most underappreciated type in Pokemon. Since they aren't super affective against anything and can't hit Ghosts, people just kinda forget about 'em. My favorite Pokemon is Ambipom and it's a great addition to any team, IMO.

[@demonintellect9834]

Final fight of the Nuzlocke should have been Volo and Giratina. Kinda wimped out in my opinion.

[@ZachCremisiSky]

Saddly he probably would lose. Hard to win with a level cap, no healing against 8 pokemon.

[@tdhhellian7509]

My son is almost 8, and he's obsessed with trains. I remember loving Thomas the tank engine when I was 5, back in 1997 😂 But damn dude, I wish he'd be more interested in hotwheels instead of trains. At least he loves pokemon tho! There's hope!

[@agr0nianTV]

I get that though I tended to use a flying/normal during most playthroughs Fearow being a fave. In Violet I also used Cyclizar 😁

[@ammonbergevin5302]

Something interesting I learned, some moves like stealth rock or pin missile deal damage whenever they take an action, so it's incredible against some Pokemon like Wally's hisuian sneasler, as it can pretty easily make 3 quick attacks before you can act again
