Seems a little too easy so why don't we just make a hard-core nuzlocke with that rule for sv. - normal nuzlocke rules - have to take pokemons advice on moves - instead of one mon per route. We have to do one mon per zone ( north, south, east, and west.) - shinies only So essentially your stuck with 4 pokemon who you lose if they die, they have to be shiny, and you have to take their advice on moves.
21:15 dont worry I too lost to this girl. I hadn’t looked up how this game worked and was like oh so I can go to any gym and this is the second closest, might as well. I assumed there would be some scaling thing and then after the quick time I was obliterated by that girl.
Yeah, I assumed there'd be scaling too, but I'm actually happy there isn't, it has made my journey much harder, and even with items I have to think more
@@abrogaming5976I get that but it was so unclear about the order that there should have been a setting for scaling because i don’t know why but I thought giacomo was the last of team star safe to say it was a very easy last team star base lol
Am I the only one of the opinion that just becoming champion doesn't constitute "Beating Pokémon Violet"? Credits don't happen until after you do the whole Crater storyline... Love the video though!
Several streamers have basically pointed out that there's a few options for going to the credits, and all of them suck. Either you have to add basically a dozen level caps and significant battles during the run (making it take forever), or do all the Team Star and Titan story when you're much higher level (making them pointless), and in either case you have to add a bunch more cutscene time, world travel, and grinding (making it take forever-er). Content creators seem to generally be agreeing more and more that wasting time for some arbitrary definition of "completion" is neither good content nor good time management (see the proliferation of rare candies in nuzlockes). Beating the Elite Four is as good a definition as any for beating a Pokemon game, particularly when the content creator is making the rules in the first place. CJ started with damageless, that was impossible, moved to no X Items, that wasn't impossible but he felt like it was more return on his time to use them than to stick to it, and ultimately it was a fun video.
@@rhench someone literally beat the whole game without taking damage until the end where the game forces you to take damage in the koraidon/miraidon fight
on one hand i'm glad that i'm not the only one that experienced the psychic gym trainer that just always lands hypnosis but on the other hand it feels so bad to watch it play out
When I fought Larry, his Staraptor randomly got paralysed (no clue how, every single playthrough I've watched he wasn't paralysed) so his facade did double damage. But not only that, he didn't get fully paralysed a single time in the 20 or so turns it took to beat him! So somehow the game glitched to give him exactly what he needed to win and then gave me the worst luck imaginable.
Really I must've been extremely slow on my first playthrough cus just casually playing the game it took 23 hours, but now that I'm thinking about it he only did the victory road and I did the whole game so idk lmao.
This run gave me an idea, probably not even too hard, considering people beat these games without leveling up at all, but: Beat the game without encountering the concept of evolution. No Pokemon is allowed to reach a level at which it would evolve. Honestly, I think this might just be a less cruel version of "no leveling" and mainly based on the additional caviat of "the concept of" evolution possibly leading to a funny meme run with resets randomly when some bug catcher mentions it; maybe even just forbid use of any Pokemon evolutions that are catchable in general or just of ones you have already used.
Hi CJ, this might be a cool challange: Catch 5 lechonks, and as soon as you unlock surprise trading trade your starter + the 5 lechonks for 6 random pokemons. After this just beat the game and youve got a fun run in Pokemon Violet
I absolutely loved this game first time playing, but blasting through the game a second time so I could fill out the Pokédex was so painful. Mashing A non stop, the characters, never, stop, talking.
The fact that he doesn't take into account the attack drop from burn when he does it for the facade boost is hilarious. Not only does he just put himself with annoying DoT, but he also halves the damage output from Dig.
Facade ignores the burn nerf and just doubles the attack for facade. Yeah, it halves it for Dig, but I only got the burn on battles I didn’t need to use dig.
@@cjya Oh, I didn't know they chanced how facade interacted with burn in Gen 6. I also didn't take into consideration that is is the power of a move that gets halved with burn and not the attack stat. If it was the attack stat, burn + facade would do literally nothing.
@@cjya Everything I can find on the topic says that burn still halves Facade, unless you have Guts. What's the source on the info that Facade ignores the 1/2 attack burn debuff?
My friend did this first run, but no Tera, no items at all, level cap, and the cherry on top is it had to be shiny. He got the first one within 2 hours, but spent another 10 on the second
Never did I see the day cj gets a honkai sponsor, been a good while since I’ve it mentioned by members that aren’t long time players. That’s insane, holy good job cj
Sooo uhhh can lechonk beat the games? I aint see no credits fam. Edit: you know what im gonna attempt problem is i have no camera, hate my voice, and im not good at editing

I remember when this was supposed to be damageless instead of lechonk only
Me too me too
Same
Edit: for comment under me, he changed it because over the span of a lot of attempts the rival mon always attacked
Why was it changed
@@SashaFesti cuz the first battle is impossible
CJ’s a coward for that one smh
I was expecting triple digit white outs, Lechonk has impressed me and your patience is insane Cjya
I’d love a challenge of this game where you HAVE to take the advice of the pokemon when getting a new move
Hahaha that's brutal, the advice is really bad sometimes, definitely a good idea
Oof good 1
Seems a little too easy so why don't we just make a hard-core nuzlocke with that rule for sv.

@@ZetroFox9274 maybe on top of that you have to do what nurse joy tells you to do
I second this, it's gonna be fun
CJ: Willingly mashing A while taking a multiple choice test that you can fail
Also CJ: ITS TOO FAST HOW?????
Glad I was able to help out with some raids! Thank you again for giving me 2chonk 😄
That interview before the Elite 4 was the hardest part of this entire game
21:15 dont worry I too lost to this girl.
I hadn’t looked up how this game worked and was like oh so I can go to any gym and this is the second closest, might as well. I assumed there would be some scaling thing and then after the quick time I was obliterated by that girl.
I feel you, I went to the Ice gym third because I thought it would be cool, open adventure with scaling to balance
Yeah, I assumed there'd be scaling too, but I'm actually happy there isn't, it has made my journey much harder, and even with items I have to think more

Cjya: Please. I don't wanna gift money!
Cjya dies 20 seconds later
This challenge would have been sooo much easier if had used eviolite
my thoughts exactly!

@@rhench bro you can literally just simplify this to the fact that the last fight is impossible since you need miraidon

One of my chat messages is on screen for literally less than a millisecond at 12:57 but I DONT CARE IM FINALLY IMMORTALIZED IN A CJYA VID BABYYY 🔥
I was the one who asked about x-items that he responded to but I don't think my message made it onto the screen somehow
I like how you put a timer for your add segments 👍
Was one that got a membership from this stream so proud of cj after this run and all that suffering
on one hand i'm glad that i'm not the only one that experienced the psychic gym trainer that just always lands hypnosis
but on the other hand it feels so bad to watch it play out
CJ in the same video about the same game: "this game is dog water" and "this game is sick!"
Bonus stars for Lechonk.
That was the HYPEST end to a Pokémon Challenge I’ve ever seen
Bonus Stars For Lechonk.
tears in my eyes when he says “lechonk you’re so weak” NO HE ISNT
tears in lechonk's eyes too
I love the videos cj! These challenges are really fun to watch
CJ: *accidentally clicks the wrong button*
CJ: THIS GAME IS SO DUMB

That's insane LOL
Some gym battles feel scripted like that. Giving moves 100 chance to apply status effects or make you flinch every time they hit.
So glad that Jan aka Pokémon Challenges finally pulled through in the end
I was thinking about trying this myself until cj said it took him 20 hours to do this
Really I must've been extremely slow on my first playthrough cus just casually playing the game it took 23 hours, but now that I'm thinking about it he only did the victory road and I did the whole game so idk lmao.
Still doing it with the raichu line
He was a tad suboptimal. Eviolite and changing his Tera Type would have made it so much easier.
congrats on 300K!!!
Bonus Stars for Lechonk
Every time anyone says "yawn" I hear "Jan" as in pokemon challenges
Aww man, I thought this would go further than ending after becoming champion

This thumbnail is amazing haha
That headbutt at crabominable was six hundred seventy two base power not affected by atk stat.
There are FAR too many grunts, gasps, squeals, and raptor shrieks in this video. Subbed.
The only one of these that makes the most sense to me because I never want Lechonk to evolve
Lechonk was my first shiny in this game
CJ you are the only other person who gets upset at the"not-a-cutscenes". I hate them
Hi CJ, this might be a cool challange:
Catch 5 lechonks, and as soon as you unlock surprise trading trade your starter + the 5 lechonks for 6 random pokemons.
After this just beat the game and youve got a fun run in Pokemon Violet
I pulled up this video as I said "HOPEFULLY!" I just started my playthrough, and I'm having a total blast.
Now I wanna see the main course. A Klawf only run.

Thank you SO much for the ad timer
Did a wee fast forward during the ghost gym fight, just heard, “…you won’t last one round….. Go LeChonk, Go, underground!”

Alternate title: Can I beat Pokémon Violet with only god. Lechonk is the most powerful Pokémon, built to rival bidoof

Thank your for putting the sponsored segment in a chapter
“YO KYLIE WAKE YOUR BITCHASS UP!!” Had me CHUCKLIN on the family vacation I tell you 😄
extra challenge mode because he picked sprigatito originally and now nemona's ace gains fighting type LMAO
Except he didn't do the last Nemona fight and in every other Nemona fight winning is optional
@@lizard1255 still an extra challenge if he wants to win those
Now THIS is the content we needed
This was genuinely the last video I ever expected a honkai ad
also ravens outfit being censored 💀
Never did I see the day cj gets a honkai sponsor, been a good while since I’ve it mentioned by members that aren’t long time players. That’s insane, holy good job cj
Lechonk.
Lechonk is the Bidoof of gen 9. Is a new God.
Methinks, protect > endeavor > protect would kill the medicham (or rather, make the medicham unalive itself)
the answer is YES and my source.
“Is that I made it up”
Omg! You got sponsored by my favorite game! :D
Awesome thumbnail and video!
After watching that ending, I went back to watch the ad again. ggs, that was a wild ride
He made noises in this run that I never thought I would here on his channel
Props to him for adding an ad timer
Sooo uhhh can lechonk beat the games? I aint see no credits fam.
Edit: you know what im gonna attempt problem is i have no camera, hate my voice, and im not good at editing
thats a you problem
This was both, frustrating and enjoyable to watch
If you look in chat when CJ dies the first time someone says "o7 Technoblade"
If I had to play all of any Pokemon game with only a normal type I think I would blow my brains out how did you power through this
Because Lechonk
Unless the normal type is an Arceus
It would be cool if they had voice acting but they don’t even have 30fps - cjya lmfao
Love the vid cj!
"Poopy, dooky, bad dog water." CJ 2022
The song used in the sponsor segment was Paper Mario: TTYD - X naut fortress
Quick answer: no, miraidon must be used, unfortunately lechonk doesn't have enough chonk
CJ suffering on stream was pog. Sorry I wasn’t able to make the last stream, but grats to finishing ur challenge! 🎉
i didn’t think lechonck was it’s real name
Yo idk why I didn’t realize you’d make a video about this run. exciting stuff!
6:26 Lechonk is just the better pig
At 27:34 when he throws the quick ball he’s invisible lol.
guys cjfartya just uploaded no way
So underrated looks rlly good how do you have the mental well-being to do this
been seeing your vids pop up and had to subscribe. Anyone who puts their money on a challenge is real.
lechonk bacon would taste divine
so early the quality is 360fps lmao
So appreciate the ad timer
Anything, and I mean ANYTHING, is possible with lechonk. No exceptions
bidoof: Finally, a worthy opponent
I would like to see the battle in the thumbnail. Lechonk vs Charizard the Unrivaled!
His name is Lechonk. If he can't solo the game, no one can.
Nintendo proving their favourite country is france for 100th time
Oh right, I forgot Ai-chan was out. Also noice challenge
Someone NEEDS to mod voice acting into this game
Changing the nature should've been a priority
Love the vids!!
