All of the Pokemon I can use this run will be Normal Types, and even though the normal type motto is "we're just ok" will I be able to beat Pokemon Leaf Green using hard mode nuzlocke rules?!

[@MarkofWisdom]

congrats on being a new father! Yeah, Raticate is one of those frequently underestimated pokemon for nuzlockes, especially the ones that have guts. It hits a lot harder than people expect. Same with fearow and a few other early game pokemon that evolve early and learn powerful STAB moves early as well

[@invividcolor]

I think Fearow could have easily replaced Cinna for the E4! Really under appreciated mon. Ratboi I think people are starting to come around on, but you're right. With guts it absolutely slaps.

[@nickywal]

I beat Lance with one in a leaf green nuzlocke once, mostly for laughs, I'm pretty sure Lance still has nightmares of a "pathetic" rat soloing his team

[@lvlHive]

Clearly the theme was Lord of the Potters: EndGame.

this is beautiful omg

[@rc4780]

Congrats on being a dad! and to your wife on being a mum! The great thing about Normal Types is the wide array of moves they learn. You can have different sets for the same Pokemon and they play completely differently. Normal Types are actually pretty great.

[@invividcolor]

You're right. They seem just okay, but I think they actually SLAP. Also - thank you!

[@Timme]

Man I was really excited to finally see a Snorlax in a nuzlocke but my boy got banned... Very entertaining run though, good job vivid

[@invividcolor]

Haha, I promise I will eventually use Snorlax

[@bigpoggers6507]

@@invividcolor Heavy Pokémon only run confirmed?

[@sheahon1179]

I like to hear the nature's and such, it helps get me invested. Maybe if they are about to die or aren't going to participate in battles then skip it but otherwise let us know. And my favorite normal type has to be Snorlax I empathize with the Pokémon on a spiritual level and have been saved by it being on my team before too many times. Also I have a question, you know meowth learns Pay Day, so why not use that to fund yourself? It adds about 100 Pokédollars everytime, mind you I still play on my game boy so I've never been the best or had the best tools to win at the slots. As for MVP... to close to call really maybe Effi is the default?

[@JustinnePunsalang]

"I think this will be my first deathless run." **Then fights Blaine**

[@ResidentialArsonist]

congratulations vivid! take all the time you need and enjoy that baby 🥺❤️

[@invividcolor]

I'm getting back into the groove, but we still snuggling the heck out of her!

[@Religion0]

Aww, I never knew how cute Kangashkhan's back sprite was! Look at her little baby peeking over her shoulder!

[@bigchez2855]

Effie was easily the MVP, the set up+heal+BoltBeam combo adds so much security to fights. Peeta also deserves Valuable Player recognition. In terms of natures and abilities, I think you're better off only mentioning then when they're either really good or really bad.

[@f.d8059]

I prefer the nature's as it makes it interesting. Favorite normal type is Dunsparce, it should've evolved into Drampa. And congrats on being a dad.

[@invividcolor]

Thanks for the feedback! It really should have evolved into Drampa. THANK YOU!

[@theTylerian18]

So glad to have found your channel, and thank you (thank you!!) for organising your playlist properly. Congratulations on fatherhood!

[@sonny4757]

Congrats on the littlest new trainer! My favorite normal type is Lopunny, I like your runs! Keep up the good work! I also like being told the natures, but just as a quick note. Even just in the voiceover

[@invividcolor]

Thank you for the feedback! Our little trainer is going to trainer school ASAP

Ghost type trainers: are you sure about that? Kangaskhan with Scrappy: are YOU sure about that?

[@invividcolor]

Haha, love it

[@matthewhubbard5265]

Congratulations Vivid! Hope your new family is doing well! To answer the first question, my favorite normal type is probably Furret, with runner ups Usaring and Obstagoon To answer the second, I think it's cool to see the starting nature and abilities when you first catch them to get a rough idea of how they'll grow As for MVP I'd have to say Peeta (R.I.P.) for early game and Mags for mid-late. Effie got more sweeps, but Mags just felt like a real solid core for the team, coming in on a lot of threats, making use of good coverage and just generally anchoring the team

[@thatAshGuy1764]

Good content loved it also congratulations on getting the future potential pokemon master

[@AhmedHussain-ju6xd]

11:31 Yeah that was really weird. Luckily in pokemon rocket addition they make it so that the captain is actually poisoned by a koffing

[@lenafischer404]

The naming theme is one of my favorite books and movies hunger games.

Man I’ve came back to watch your content for the first time since March. Congrats on the kid man 🎉🥳 best content creator ever

[@invividcolor]

Been a while, bubba! You’re too kind :)

[@WarioLandIV]

Excellent video! You should do an Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire monodark run, there's a lot of really interesting mons! I did it a while back and it's still my favourite monotype run I've ever done.

[@SongbirdOfficial]

That Blaine battle is why when I EV train in Nuzlockes and I'm not using calcs, I usually split between HP and Speed, except in cases where the Pokemon being slow is good/it's so slow investing in Speed is pointless (Ferrothorn, Golem, etc.)

[@UltimateBreloom]

Congrats on becoming a dad!! Some thoughts on the nuzlocke. You got really lucky with RNG quite a few times. Especially against Brock and Surge. You would have done a lot better to pre-poison your raticate. Would have protected you from paralysis while doubling attack. Also would have probably OHKO'd Blaine's Arcanine. Overall though still better than I usually play in Nuzlockes.

[@zeyke5008]

Congrats on the baby my guy. That is so exciting!!

[@invividcolor]

Thank you so much! She's a cutie

[@sixtales7681]

I remember when I did my first Nuzlocke. It was on FireRed. At first I had gotten 8 deaths, mainly because I also decided to do post game and re challenged the E4. I then did it again and got only one death early on due to an unfortunate crit.

[@glumanteri]

Good run! One of my favourite normal type Pokemon is Audino :3

[@SpliffingBrit]

Id say save states are fine for the gamecorner, but you should have to catch the 30 pokemon to get the pokeflute

[@invividcolor]

There aren’t 30 normal types, so I just set the dex to 30 😅

[@benjitobar]

def a big fan of breaking down the pokemon you get!

[@BassOutcast]

Unpopular favorite Normal type - Dunsparce. I always liked his design and I feel like with the right moveset he's not that bad.

[@r4z0rb3ard6]

Giffing use the information of their stats and stuff after catching is cool

[@seifer447]

My guy, that Denny's description is on point, as is the normal type comparison.

Wierdly enough toucannon is my favorite, sun and moon, plus the ultra games have always been my favorite. And due to it being so early, I would always pick it up.

Haha Vivid and I finally agree on a Mon, Clefable, who I always called Billy, is my one of my favorite gen 1 normal types. Until gen 6 of course

[@invividcolor]

Right. It then becomes one of my favorite fairy types 😂

You should do the natures and showcases for mons mons that will be important to the run. Also, it would be cool if you did a team showcase right before you start the Elite 4 battles.

I've seen some streamers add some basic info about a pokemon they catch as a small window on the screen. That way even if you don't talk about every catches nature in your video, the info will still be there for people who are interested, might be worth considering.

[@almendra1446]

Considering what you asked at 4:32: I think it'd be nice to have a scroll-through of the stat pages of all the Pokémon you caught for the Nuzlocke accompanied by background music. If that's too long, then just the stat pages of the Pokémon you bring to the Elite Four.

[@invividcolor]

That's actually a solid idea!

[@Brooke052]

0:10 Precious plant baby. Literally, Aww’d for a good while. Also, we should’ve made Leafgreen the game to be plant name based. We missed the opportunity. 🥺 I like Eevee as a normal type but just him it’s useless without eeveelutions. But the Meowth line is better to me. The payday is my lifesaver and helps grind money.

[@invividcolor]

Haha, one of these runs all the Pokemon will just be named after plants and that one will be dedicated to you.
