That transiction into the sponsor ad👌🏼
ma balls gonna be happy this Christmas, thanks pokemonchallenges
I'd leave a comment but Jan thinks the youtube comment section is cringe and he's probably right
Me just being very triggered by PC's Misspronunciation of Golisopod just makes me, *Breeathes in* there is no O befor the S
i died laughing when you transitioned. completely out the left field.
Thank you for not roasting my pokemon trainer skills xD. Had no idea Durant was so strong. Guess I'll bring Flick next time
Hey at least you now know and continue on
Looking forward to the next nuzlocke! (if you do another lol)
Durant doesn't look strong, i had no idea how powerful those little ants can be.
Ez Pokemon
@@valvadis2360 It's pretty ironic how Heatmor, the natural predator to Durant, is actually overall weaker than the Pokémon it preys on. XD
That sponsor transition was fucking terrible. I loved it.
Made no sense at all lmao

"Why do Fairies resist Bug?"
Funny, seeing Wolfe's latest video about fixing the Bug type 🤣
Link pls
Same here. Just watched it an hour ago.
I think the reason why fairies resist to bug because it might resemble of bug lovers (in the real world) because they all think bugs are cute, sooo-
@@nerizepansit1032 that makes no sense
@@balancemaster55 love and cuteness (fairy types)>bugs (bug types)
Conclusion: most people think they’re (bugs) cute and love them very much so this might be the resemblance on why do fairies resist to bug
I love how you advocate for “whatever is fun for you.”
Nuzlockes are primarily about the death clause and limited Pokémon in some way. And even then, it’s not for everyone and there exist other challenges.
I myself personally prefer monotype
@@ultimapower6950 love monotype runs man. Even if ghost is a bitch to play, regular games have only 6-12 on average and romhacks dont give you a lot of them early on.
Palkias weakness is Salamanca and fairy type’
@@ultimapower6950I also prefer monotypes. Not monotypes nuzlockes though, I greatly prefer watching nuzlockes over actually playing them. But just the challenge of gathering a team that all shares one type and beating the game with it suffices for me.
I've personally enjoyed doing Type challenges. So far, my ruling on Pokemon usable for type challenges has been that if a Pokemon line gets the type(or one of the types) used by the challenge, the entire line is usable. The only area I draw the line for this is with Tera types since I've forgotten to use that on Pokemon that would otherwise not be in my team far too often
Just know everyone. The one thing you need for a nuzlocke is a WELL GROOMED CROTCH!!
I've been using Manscaped for half a year now and I still suck at nuzlockes. Would still recommend Manscaped, my girlfriend likes it.
I’ve wanted to use it as let’s just say I’m getting more hair in “certain” places. Would you recommend for men?
@@jackallen6601 Yes, I'm recommending it for men. When I say "my girlfriend likes it" I meant she likes the effect it has on me xD
@@TheBritishPoro yeah I was a little worried there for a bit lol
This segue made me absolutely die! XD

@@Tomatism27 practically yeah
I'm sorry? What do you mean by "no reason"?
@@black97_0 risking their mental health just for a video isn't a good enough reason
@@MD.Akib_Al_Azad what?
Real talk: The full color stills he does like him hanging out of the train car, are borderline promotional art quality. Good on ya
Must say, rather brave this Yong fellow is. First Nuzlocke, a blind monotype run? Well done on him.
Also, being a little weird and mean... whether losing the Skorupi was really bad is determined by whether or not you count Drapion for this run, since it turns into a Dark/Poison type, which would technically disqualify it... on the other hand, if it's good enough for Aaron, it's probably good enough for us.
Maybe he was never going to evolve it, keeping the bug typing present and legal
He literally used his starter through the entire game
@Alexander Jesús Ramírez Figuera I call it the Matilda clause. All lizards count as "A bug."
BTW as a rookie nuzlocker, the way you explained at length wobuffet counter strats is much appreciated.
That's why he does these.
Good thing my first nuzlocke is in Unova.
I always thought roar was a good work around. It’ll probably only work on switch setting though.

When you talked about the dynamax cutscene idea, I realized we could've had the giant tentacruel attacking a skyscraper like the original Pokemon opening.
Not just the opening that tentacruel thing was the plot of a whole episode (back when Ash and gang were on the Orange Islands) but it was censored in the US due to bad timing and I'm not sure it was released/aired since then
@@NamMisa I saw that ep on TV
@@NamMisa Nah, it was normally in Kanto, but shortly after the cruiser sinked. Basically, the events were like this : the ship went under but Ash & co got stuck, James managed to piss off his newly evolved Magikarp who called for help from the Gyaradoss Dragon Rage Gang, they all got stranded on a giant mechanic Pokemon theme park island owned by Team Rocket as a result, they managed to reach some inhabited island right on time for the banned bikini contest episode, then the Tentacruel episode took place.
"Pokémon, It's You And MeEeE- *Giant Fucking Tentacruel Smashes a Building* ...I KNOW IT'S MY DESTI-NEEEY!"
@@ShinuGuardian Yup! Two episodes in a row that stopped being shown (thank you, Bikini James). The episode stopped being aired in Japan due to sensitivity issues after a tsunami destroyed several major cities, and stopped being aired in America because of 9/11.
21:38 Even B2W2 had the awesome cutscene where team plasma attacks the city and freezes it
Returning to say that this animation made me see the appeal of doing a monotype Nuzlocke. Maybe it's just 'cause Young Yong Tales did it more out of his personal fondness for Bug-types than _solely_ wanting to challenge himself. Kinda makes me wonder if I should try my hand at a monotype Flying Nuzlocke sometime (Flying is my favorite Type, along with Dragon and Grass. Also _maybe_ Rock but mostly just for the Fossils).
The cut where Jan blinded himself to run into a note in the wild area got me good, actually 11/10 editing!
1k likes and no comments lmao
Wait. How? Just one comment? ( Now 2)
@@lightningdragon666 Because there's probably nothing to talk about the comment
I never knew that Leon is the undefeated Galar Champion. Yet i was even more surprised at the fact that Leon is the undefeated Galar Champion.
Wait so you're saying that Leon is actually the undefeated champion of the Galar region?
@@smithpmusic I think he’s saying that Leon is undefeated, and maybe he’s the champion, it’s pretty vague though

How?
@@positivea9111 as stated in game, "leon's pants with directions" which i think means he's terrible with directions
@@ssupermarlo You literally go to meet him at the train station to make sure he doesn't get lost ON HIS WAY HOME prior to even getting your starter. His internal compass is probably the equivalent of a compass with it's hands just endlessly spinning like a helicopter rotor. I'm amazed that they don't have to keep him on a leash just to make sure he doesn't wander off and get lost somewhere where he'll never be heard from again.
Bros like Zoro 💀
This was absolutely a nuzlocke. It was monotype, with the exception of the starter, which many people allow an exception for in mono-type runs anyways. Pretty well done. Hopefully he starts doing itemless runs :)
For a monotype nuzlock in any game You get rid of your starter if it does not match the run. If you keep a mon that's not part of the monotype run that you're choosing then it's not a monotype nuzlock by definition.

Yeah, there is no 'o' between 'i' and 's'.

"Skorupie" was a definite highlight.
Actually died three times after hearing that
@@shadowrypre emergency situationally exit is good in nuzlockes
Can we talk about how Rose was done dirty? He could have been such a great, creative villain! He didn't go for world domination, he didn't go for complete genocide or sheer stupidity (looking at you, team aqua/magma), he genuinely wanted to make the world a better place for humans AND pokemon and his plan was actually viable. But yeah, let's take one of the most refreshing concepts for a pokemon antagonist in a long, long time and just turn the guy into a complete buffoon. Ugh...
The funny thing is that merely changing the timeframe would have made him justified and Sword/Shield painfully relevant. If the energy crisis was 100 years away, that is certainly a timeframe justified for harnessing dangerous Dynamax power. That 100 years could be a conservative estimate and people could run out of energy much faster than 100 years, making Rose’s scramble and Leon’s shame at not taking the energy crises seriously make sense. It also parallels the supposed 30 years we have to not live in a radically altered Earth: no one takes it seriously and those who do so are seen as radical so they could have to take drastic steps to preserve the planet as-is.
It could have been one of those “bad level design, good relevant story” games. Instead it’s just bad. And note that my point is just the bare minimum to add a semblance of a reason to buy Sword and Shield beyond getting Jirachi in Pokémon BD/SP.
Tbh journeys did like okay with him, still not great but I actually liked the darkest day ark quite a bit bc we got to see the rampaging dynamax pokemon and their effects on the environment/people around them, though I do wish it was extended so that we could actually have a plot point and not just random filler episodes for no reason yk? But yeah it goes into his backstory a bit more and explains his toxic mentor relationship with Leon pretty well too. His motivation actually makes a lot more sense in the anime, though I do have my grievances with some parts of that. I'm liking what I've been seeing recently though from what I can find of the newer english dub, tbh I think pokemon fans can lack patience sometimes bc journeys is actually getting pretty good now with Chloe and an actual motivation for Goh who was frankly a pseudo-static character before that point.
like the fact it goes from ' ive summoned a legendary ' to ' i forgot how much i enjoyed pokemon battles ' which sucks so hard
Rose parallels the crisis IRL, so much potential for a great villain with actually memorable and reasonable motives
Yeah, that wasn't really fair.
I’ve never seen anybody who embodies the “pushing up anime glasses” meme like Jan does
Jerry coming out as the MVP is some Anime-level shit. The joke/meme character carrying the team to victory. It's like Grimgor coming in and killing Archaeon.
Ice type isn't its own type its an expansion pack for water types.
SO true lol
I hate this.
You're completely right.
Lapras
Though mamoswine is still the champ for killing that annoying garchomp with ice shard
Same with ground and steel for rock lol
Ice type is a type you don’t play with. At least Rock types tend to be physically defensive even if their combinations tend to be bad.
"Plans that involve controlling a legendary pokemon never work well "
Meanwhile...all we ever do is catch the legendary pokemon and control them....so basically the only bad part of the villains plans is that they never actually use their master balls
They even have them as well like Giovanni has a master ball for some reason
They don't even catch them before, their plan is basically bring a giant XXL collar and drag them like a locked beast
Kinda makes sense imo.
The Legendaries don't obey the villains because of their cruelty and abuse, but the Player Character is pure of heart and treats the Legendaries well. It's telling that the only two main series villains who succeeded at controlling Legendaries were N from Black/White (who is also pure of heart and kind to his Pokemon) and [SPOILER REDACTED] from Legends Arceus (who was definitely _not_ pure of heart, but shared a common goal with their Legendary).
@@CJCroen1393 Right...True of heart...yea....
Now excuse me as I shake down youngster joey for all his Lunch Money again
@@CJCroen1393 And then they all have their respective legendaries in Team Rainbow Rocket, so there's at least one dimension where they actually got them
Orbeetle getting love is one of my favorite things, he's so underrated. Used him on my first playthrough, and he's like a defensive Alakazam that you can get without trade evolutions, he's actually fantastic, only downside is a weaker typing
As both a huge Pokémon and Hollow Knight fan, the fact that my favourite Pokémon creator used Hollow Knight music in the background made me so so happy
I think an underappreciated aspect of the videos that Jan reacts to is that the storytelling is PHENOMENAL
Agreed.
1:20 I watch your reaction videos SPECIFICALLY for when you pause and analyze, cause... that's when the learning happens. Why someone would just want another face next to their video, I wouldn't know. As usual, love the content, hope the holiday season has been good to you!
I'm a really casual nuzlocker so I don't really care about the learning, but seeing Jan's reactions is the whole reason I want to watch a reaction video. If I didn't want pausing I'd just go re-watch the original again.
for real. Honestly I probably would've completely bombed my first nuzlocke without this guy's insight
Having someone react just makes it feel like it’s not just me listening to an animation but someone else seeing it along with me
Exactly! I also use it for my own nuzlockes and sometimes to get myself into the mindset with competitive, alongside with Wolfey
I low-key love the scene when the player and Hop fight against Gigantamax Eternatus and then the Sword and Shield Puppers come in and fuse with their respective rusty weapons. It’s just so cool to me.
I appreciate your commentary. I’ve recently started my very first nuzlocke and watching stuff like this has helped me stay alive.
1:08 Jan: Is than me?
Also Jan: Just because they fucking wear glasses doesn’t mean it looks like me.
While we're talking about fairy resisting bug. Why does ice only resist ice. Make it resist water/bug/ice/grass. Then it'd be a bit of a better type. Don't get me started on the steel resist psychic
Imagine if ice resisted dragon and grass. It'd be so much better
In my opinion ice should resist grass and fairy at the very least and also hit super effective on fairy, it makes logical sense with how winter makes nature less active
Ground mostly or even rock (bc glaciers can absolutely move mountains and actual ice irl is way stronger than most people think). Bug and grass need better type match ups to keep up
as well bc theyre really way too weak at the moment
Remove bug resist to fairy make it immune to dark types
Make grass immune to fairy n hit fairy for 2x damage
Ice should resist water n bug, grass, itself n dragon
Fire immune to steel
Fighting should resist steel
Game balanced right there
Upgrade base power of ghost moves
Introduce a dark weather effect to power up ghost and dark n bug
Fixed your game
@@nautgamingnautgaming9949 Way too many immunities and why in the living fuck would you buff ghost? It's the new gen 5 dragon type as is
You’re not alone on the “bus” XD
It’s cry even sounds like a bus!!
I would agree with Jan about the usually go for the fire starter. But galars 3rd gym literally makes you catch fire types.
Also the fire type in kanto is the worst for those who don't know about the game since the first two gyms wall charmander
I feel obliged to be that one guy to point out that he started the animation with him carrying the Nezuko box on his back.
I caught that when he was pulling out Centiskorch and couldn't help but chuckle.
The only thing I hate about hustle Durant is that Durant can't learn Hone Claws in gen 8. I was gutted to find out my king couldn't learn hone claws even though it could back in older gens. Did my man's dirty
Wtf why
What moves does it benefit from Hone Claws off? (genuine q)
@@sweetwheatsy Hone Claws boosts accuracy which cancels the accuracy drop you get from Hustle
@@RipperJack77 Oh hecc yeah!! That is so good
And also give a attack boost
I don't get mad when creators pause the video they're reacting to and commentate because I'm here to listen to the creators input that's what a reaction is! Also, I like listening to your analysis on everything that happens as it's interesting, and it aids me as a pokemon player by learning new things!
13:05
Jan, wimpod may seem like a useless Pokémon, but if you get Golisopod, you are set for life, because of Golisopod’s first impression
I like how you talked about how to deal with a wobbuffet because I remember crying when I played pokemon and encountered one when I was a child. I didn't know what this thing does so when I got my team almost wiped I caught one.
Now my child brain didn't understand and just used those 2 moves so when I actually used it I said "wtf this is useless"
The boss when you fight it vs. When you get it.
Galvantula gets sticky web too
Centiscorch is pretty great since it can have the ability flash fire, it can learn coil pretty early, and when its all the way up lvl 53 it learns fire lash which always drops your opponents defense
7:45 wheezing at this clip, not entirely sure why
21:30 i loved how the houses that were destroyed in that xy cutscene you mentioned conveniently had not doors lol.
2:05 LOL that sponsor segue was amazing lmao 😂

What a legendary sponsor break holy shit this man is on another level
yeah
Lol the sponsor part caught me off guard 😆
I love your stance on how strict a 'real' Nuzlocke's rules have to be. It's refreshing as a person who started playing extremely late due to access reasons, and has disabilities that limit the way he does most everything, to see a pro who isn't an aggressive purist. Having fun, being allowed to work within your time and ability constraints, and feeling good about what you're doing should ALWAYS come first!
Absolutly true
That's my favourite part about Jan he has his preferred rules but says to pick whatever rules work.
Yeah, I did my own first nuzlocke recently and the only rules were the basic ones: Name your pokemon; if the pokemon dies you can't use it again, and only one encounter per route. I also added an extra rule that forced me to play the way I would normally do, meaning I WOULD train my pokemon (which I normally don't) but I wouldn't check trainers' teams, build strategies or rely on swipping teams with a buffed pokemon. Just pure damage.
After playing it, I reached the decision that training your pokemon is boring as all hell even with the emulator's speed up function, so next time I'll hack in some Rare Candy, which I consider cheating because I lost pokemon while training last time, but training is just not fun at all, so fuck that.
There's also this friend of mine that adds a billion rules to make it more fun to him, like finding Max Revives counting as a revived pokemon, being able to generate any item he needs to evolve a pokemon, or having 2 or 3 encounters per route with the possibility of running away from one of them. I don't approve of any of those, but it makes it fun for him, so it's okay
@@cosmefulanito6854 Reminds me of years ago, can’t remember where but I remember watching a Nuzlocke series on UA-cam where the person playing allowed themself to revive one pokemon after the 8th gym
I personally think it detracts from the point of nuzlockes, from a standpoint of both emotional detachment and challenge, but i also dont think its harming anyone so if people wanna do it thats cool
Duraludon sticks out in my mind bc on one of my runs I was worrying about it a ton, I thought it was gonna be this bitter struggle for victory, I was actually irl nervous. I had my Lapras and Lucario out with the plan to gigantamax Lapras and have it try and kill Duraludon with Lucario adding a bit of extra damage for safety. I take a deep breath, make my choice... and immediately Lucario oneshots Duraludon with (I believe) brick break. He really earned his nickname (Siegfried) in that fight.
The idea of a "type loyalty" run is pretty cool, honestly, and very fitting with the pokemon world we see in the games.
Sword/Shield is a fantastic game to nuzlocke. There's tremendous variety (especially if you're using the DLC), the encounters are very easy to control even if you don't allow dens, and the game itself is very beatable without being too easy.
Another cool benefit of DLC: depending on your ruleset, you can go to Crown Tundra with just a single weak Pokemon and lose to Peony. You don't actually white out upon losing to him, which is usually considered the lose condition of a Nuzlocke. Then you can run into the Tundra and grind Ore to get some Ability Patches for things like Libero Cinderace and Grassy Surge Rillaboom
One time I was doing a sword nuzlocke, my starter died and I got so sad I played the game normally
Thought I’d like to throw out is that you mention after the Dragon Gym that protect is an option, but in Sword and Shield it’s optional at one of the tm shopkeepers in the pokecenters so it’s extremely easy to miss protect in these games, especially if going in blind like he did
God I love this idea. Really been thinking about a Mono-Normal run since the first time I saw this, and the rewatch and review watch through have just further motivated it.
The fact that EVERY time you start popping off about a great encounter, that ‘mon gets dunked on quickly.
drinking Pepsi and you say "having a well groomed crotch" out of nowhere I nearly accidently got my Pepsi spilt everywhere 💀💀💀
This guy did a sick job with the animation. Really insane
I just really like the Yu-Gi-Oh reference that is Escavalier being called Gaia, after Yugi's Gaia the Fierce Knight.
Hail yeah. I try and look up names that have a certain meaning. Like my Shinx in BDSP is named Mellan, Irish name meaning "little lightning" and if I can't find a good name, then I'll just name my mons after characters I like, such as I named my Infernape Azula, I've named my Klefki Sora cause....KEYS lol. And I remember naming my Gallade Riku cause he's all chivalrous. And I've always named Pikachu Mickey....after THAT Mickey. No regrets. Man even taking the nuzlocke thing out of it, nicknaming pokemon is just fun.
Hear me out, Gaia for Zacian. Gaia the Furs Knight. No? Okay 😔
I'm currently playing through Renegade Platinum and catching and nicknaming everything. My proudest one is naming a Gulpin Freud.
I usually pick a theme when I start.
one time was anime characters, so my infernape was named jolyne, my hitmonchan was ippo, and so on (it was also a monotype run. still gotta finish that actually).
another was just musical references, I got a tyranitar and named it godzilla, because of the song. was really proud of that one.
there was also that one time I spend like 30+ balls on a chatot, that was paralyzed and on red health. named him NormCuatro the fourth legendary bird. (if only his second type wasn't normal... could get a cooler name). General Cuatro didn't fit
That manscaped transition still gets me every time lmao
That ending tho! I'm so hyped for NomxJaiden fight
As someone who plays by Smogon rules, hearing someone say that Durant is bulky had me in stitches

The physical defense of Durant is VERY high but the special defense is VERY low
@@montmito yah, but it's hp is so low that even neutral phys attacks 2HKO it
Can't wait to see what new things I can learn from this video so I can finally continue putting off starting a nuzlocke
go do a Nuzlocke, _nerd_
"aren't you sure your name isn't...KAREN" that made me spit my drink out
I liked Sobble. When I got him leveled up all the way to Inteleon he got this super awesome move called Snipe Shot. For a lot of his opponents, especially fire types, it was a one hit KO. And now that my Inteleon is at the eighties in terms of level there aren't a lot of opponents that present a threat to him.
Meet my Rillaboom.
@@KingRock9717 Ah Rillaboom. I fought him at the end during the fight against Leon. I'll admit he was tough but in all fairness grass types are strong against water types. I can't really remember the fight but I don't think I put my Inteleon up against Rillaboom
My favorite part is trying to guess how many times he's going to say you need to play around Crits.
seriously, every video. like he heard the guy say he never did a nuz run before and that he never even played the game and he keeps pointing out failures like these two things arent facts about the current player hes watching..
@@cryofist Which might be weird, if this video was only about Young Yong.
But it isn't.
This video is meant to help people learn how to do better in their Nuzlockes, and playing around crits is a very important skill to learn in order to do that. Particularly so since so many people evidently don't realize it's even possible to play around crits.
This is educational, and examples assist education.
This video made me realize that bug has somehow snuck its way into my top 3 types (dark and ice; fire and steel if we expand to 5). So many cool bug types have trickled in each gen that it's hard not to like them now.
I actually laughed at the sponsor segue, almost choked on my tea. This attempt on my life shall not be forgotten.
18:32 I got a durant early in a fan game once and scope lens/hown claws makes Durant one of my favorite Pokémon to use
I loved this nuzlocke. The plays could have been better in a few of the situations, but overall the animation was incredible and given the excellent selection of pokémon, this run was very fun to watch.
I kinda want to try a Twitter nuzloke of shield (only poison types) soon now thanks to this
Fun fact: in sword sobble is actually the best starter Kabu was essentially the first roadblock. Gordy can be swept with a single Pokémon Charizard. I don’t need to explain this
"down stairs" almost killed me!! LMFAO🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have to stop watching these animated nuzlockes, the endings make me cry every time
23:16 I just really like nom nom flexing in the background 😂
Thanks for the tips and as a fan of young yong tales I agree he did really well for a buglocke
Honestly, love that ad transition. Unexpected and funny!
I’ve done a bug type hardcore nuzlocke in sword. It’s especially fun when you use isle of armor pokemon. Pinsir, Volcorona, and especially Scolipede were very good to have for a lot of the game. It would have been easier if my dwebble and orbeatle had survived longer, but the extra challenge was also fun… also shuckle is probably the most important one to catch…
how did you get past raihan!! i kept wiping at his last two mons, with his gigalith and duraludon still standing..
@@jpegcrust getting very very lucky, and also using quiver dance on frosmoth, I somehow managed to get out of that one deathless.
shuckle the GOAT
@@jpegcrust I have no idea about availability in this game, but a Masquerain with intimidate and Rain dance seems really good for this fight, as the sandstorm actually buffs the gym leader more than many people realize. Especially if you give your Pokémon speed Evs or have sticky web on a mon, this fight shouldn’t be too hard I think
One thing about 8th gen is that max moves can't miss so having Hustle Durant as a max option is choice.
I really love this content Jan! You inspired me to do my first lock.
I am watching ever single one of these nuzlocke reaction vids to prepare for my Moon Nuzlocke I’m gonna attempt in August.
Holy smokes that sponsor transition almost killed me
Jan is being so nice in this video what a cutie patootie 🥺
Jaiden in her new nuzlocke be like towards Jan: 😈😈😈

One of the best cinematics in Pokémon was the necrozma vs lunala/solgaleo fight in USUM
This man is the only reason why I am hesitant to start a nuzlocke okay
(op starts praising his Joltik while Wobbuffet's silhouette stands menacingly)
Every Nuzlocker ever: "oh no."
Edit: I love using ice types. I never have fun when I optimize, so I like to purposely use more challenging or gimmicky Pokemon.
The sponsor intro made me finally subscribe. Even though i've seen most of your videos. love your videos

8:44 I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE! I always thought that looked like a bus, and it will always look like a bus. "Bus Bug".
I’m happy with Jan’s choice of music! I heard he was playing hollow knight music.
Loved that sponsor transition
"Leon is the undefeated champion of the Galar region" is the only statement that can beat "Bungee Gum possess the properties of both rubber and gum"
It is Leon’s nen-limitation to be lost for that gives him victory in every battle. That is why after realizing he can focus on other things other than being a Pokémon battling celebrity, he lost: he found his way to be more than a champion.
22:36 i love when stories dont show things infinitely cooler than the stuff you get to see
That ad placement was phenomenal
There was a while in my White 2 casual play through that Galvantula had U-turn and Volt Switch so I could just yeet it out for free damage then have a flying Pokémon be immune to earthquake. That was a fun time
I did the same for Black 2.
Goddamn I sure do wish there were a way for me to finally play my Pokemon Nuzlocke with a well-groomed Ballsack. Good thing Jan's got me covered
For real tho his sponsor transitions are godly they get me every time
I think my favorite party is the song behind the “outside voice” sponsor break all I hear is the smite so “he can walk” now I’m think about khepri needing hair oil
Grass Pokemon are amazing. I played Moon mainly using the grass starter one whose name I totally didn't forget.
