Twitch Plays Pokémon as a Hardcore Nuzlocke! (No items, no overlevelling)

[@Eveready.T]

This is a cool retelling of Twitch Plays Pokémon

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you!! My first video idea was to play through the Twitch Plays Pokemon teams, but I ultimately decided on the manga teams. All the Twitch Plays Pokemon videos on KZbin are really long so I wanted to make mine a condensed retelling of the tale

[@pokehorror7777]

Your hardcore nuzlocking skills are so good. Like, one or none of your team ever dies

[@magnuspkmn]

To be fair, I've played FRLG probably a thousand times so it's all muscle memory by now! The only real challenges are Sabrina's Alakazam if she starts stacking Calm Mind. But Surf makes Blaine & Giovanni free, and Thunderbolt/Ice Beam makes the E4 free

[@farmerphern]

Thank you for summarizing the story of Twitch Plays Pokemon. I wasn't on top of a lot of things in the internet when this happened so, i genuinely missed the entire experience. This was an entertaining look into the saga.

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you!! I was vaguely aware at the time but I've always heard jokes about it like the Helix fossil or Digrat. One of my first Python projects in school was a knockoff "Consult the Helix Fossil" programs lol

[@AquibMohammedAyman]

From a video every month to uploading every other week! Great

[@magnuspkmn]

Graduating definitely gave me a lot more free time!! Appreciate you being here back when it was 1 video per month!!

[@Pixilm8]

It's been so long since i've even heard of twitch plays Pokémon and watching this really helped relive some sweet memories! Nice one dude!

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you!! I just hope it's not too old school for the newer Pokemon audience! Appreciate you Pixil❤

[@animevivaciousstudios3015]

Really like that you are making videos about Pokemon media lore

[@dallas8909]

Ain’t no way I heard the fnaf world music 😭😂 great video want more variety in the Pokémon nuzlockes which is a huge W keep it up can’t wait for more vids

[@magnuspkmn]

Hahaha I threw in some easter eggs! Glad you liked it!! Appreciate you being here! 😊

[@PostwarTester10]

Your videos are very interesting and unlike most nuzlocke content I see! I can't wait to see more stuff from you in the future.

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you!! I try to keep it similar enough but also with my own twist. The type only or solo runs personally get a little stale for me😅

[@Olorin884]

I had no clue this ever happened back in the day, great stuff!!

[@BatmanthePoet]

I thoroughly appreciated this

[@magnuspkmn]

Appreciate you being here!! ❤

[@timmaia5082]

Super cool retelling! I think the video might be unpopular because it's unclear what it's about (I myself clicked thinking it was going to be a regular retrospective), but the idea is super fun, and the editing/storytelling is great as usual!

[@magnuspkmn]

That is super insightful!! I appreciate the comment, I'll definitely update this soon. Never even thought of it!

[@dragonitematero]

I really liked this video, it would be cool if aside from Manga team challenges (which are also great btw) you did TPP team challenges explaining the lore behind it like you did in this video. I remember watching the og TPP and if my memory serves correct I watched “the urn” (run) where they got to win the league (the one in which Venomoth beats Agility spamming Dragonite via posion). Also would really be cool to see LazorGator once again!

[@TonerTheTank]

I loved this! Great video

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you❤ Appreciate you being here!

[@katman9900]

This was my first time watching a Twitch plays Pokémon, and I have to say,it exceeded my expectations 😅

[@solgaleo3533]

I had an idea for a hack relating to TPP So maybe you’d have an AI or whatever playing HGSS, or possibly just another one of the creative runs seen online nowadays, it’s not exactly important And the game seems normal up until you face Red You speak to him, and he looks different, and he says “I am guided by the divine pulses sent to me through the limitless power of the lord helix. It is time to test your strength.” And you’d battle the final team of TPP with the AI Sada/Turo theme in the background

[@solgaleo3533]

I remember when I played FRLG the first time a couple years ago, I decided to go with Flareon, and nicknamed it Judas after the role of Flareon in TPP

[@ryann42]

I love that TPP comes down to "Vaguely Judeo-Christian Theology Except God is a Funny Little Fossil Guy"

[@j.corbygaming]

We need a second twitch plays pokemon. With like Ultra Sun or something. Keep up the excellent work!

[@comfeytimid1207]

that already happened in like 2017 fyi

[@pokemonviolet5418]

Love the intersection of pokemon and historical reenactment

[@magnuspkmn]

Hahaha thank you!! Tried my best to be historically accurate 😂

[@twarnold14]

Ah yes, my favorite manga character: Twitch!

[@Professorxen]

I was so excited to see a new video from you! Great job as always!

[@magnuspkmn]

Appreciate you!! I put a ton of elbow grease into this one and I'm really happy with the final result!

[@MudkipEpicGamer]

The man is back

[@magnuspkmn]

I'm glad you found this video, but it was uploaded 2 weeks ago! 😝 I think my core audience didn't like it as much bc it's not manga related so the algorithm really struggled to push it out :(

[@MudkipEpicGamer]

@@magnuspkmn i liked it

[@rjthepoet500]

This was different from what i thought it would be but this was still a cool vid, i enjoyed your storytelling.

[@magnuspkmn]

Appreciate it! This one was a little more segmented and narrative which I really enjoyed making! I don't know if I will make more because I was only really invested in the first Twitch Plays Pokemon

[@rjthepoet500]

@@magnuspkmn that’s totally okay! I enjoyed this vid either way!

[@raptorneon4919]

If I was part of the twitch stream I would have absolutely lost my mind and start cursing people out

[@dorinelcocioaba6218]

Nice video, i like the idea😊😊

[@magnuspkmn]

Thank you!! Appreciate you being here☺

[@savebatsfromscratch]

Ooh this is such a good idea! :0

[@Azzy2beamaster]

Great Video I Have Subscribed!

[@mustardmushroom4390]

Good video, but the level cap seemed a little high for the first few elite four members in a hardcore nuzlocke

[@magnuspkmn]

I use the standard level cap of the highest E4 member's Pokemon, so Lance's Dragonite at lvl 60. The champion will be level 63 but I felt that was WAY too high!!

[@edra2005]

2014 sure was a weird time period

[@DarkSoulsSauron]

i was there, in the chat, during TPP and this was a very fun way to relive the game after the vods got lost

[@jasonryan5572]

I understand so many memes now

[@guilhermegaeta2504]

Very good video

[@magnuspkmn]

Appreciate you!! Thanks for checking it out!!

[@Luke-we9gj]

It sucks that suck a good video essay + hardcore nuzlocke isn’t performing as well as your other videos here.

[@magnuspkmn]

Definitely a bummer but I expected that since it's not manga related... appreciate you for checking it out though!

[@Link-nz3se]

Good vid

[@dahuntre]

I don’t think I ever participated, but I heard lots about it at the time. Such a cool idea and such a cool story that played out from it.

[@comfeytimid1207]

do it with their Pokemon Black team in BW or no balls (deerling, joltik, druddigon, tranquill, zebstrika, tympole)

[@PlanetBuster151]

Can you do a Smash Bros. Pokemon Trainer Challenge?

[@crazydov]

❤❤❤

[@zyairejones1820]

Can you really catch two of the shame pokemon.

[@magnuspkmn]

I guess no Species Clause for this one 😅 Appreciate you checking out the video!!

[@user-nu5bw4sn4u]

Not bad but prefer the manga nuzlockes
