Actually, there is a really good reason for hop picking the weaker starter. He wants to get the stronger starter against leon. Meaning he wants to be super effective against the remaining starter, which leon gets
The thing I love about Antlerboy's hardcore nuzlockes is the commentary. Unlike some other hardcore nuzlockers that sound like they dont really sound into it while commentating over the nuzlocke; Antlerboy always sounds super enthusiastic and constantly throws in little one-liners that make me chuckle and has running jokes from nuzlocke to nuzlocke like the 'ms region' titles. It makes the nuzlocke overall much more fun to watch when hearing Antlerboy's hilarious commentary over it.
probably because the ones that try to seem enthusiastic are youtubers that are made for kids. Someone that has an audience of adults would probably not do the same.
Mai was the real MVP here. She set up so much sun that water was nothin to the team. Plus Aang's solar beam and Ninetales energy ball took out the trash
i actually liked that leon takes care of the dynamax issue for us. it always felt kind of dumb that the story of every game hypes up the champion and then it has to be a 10 year old kid fixing everything and the champion is nowhere near to be found. the only ones that were somewhat involved were alder iris and steven and even then they were just cheerleading. i think it's nice that we get a champion that lives up to his name. they also talk about him being the undefeated champ and all this crap, would be dumb to not have him do it IMO
@@wolverineminer yeah i know, i just didnt include him because i dont consider GSC/HGSS to have a story cuz they really dont have one. even the rocket event is just a bunch of fights against random grunts who are 15 levels below you cuz level curve sucks and then you beat the admins and it has the most anticlimactic ending ever cuz giovanni doesnt even show up. and there isnt even any real buildup to the goldenrod event either
Honestly fair. Though I do wish it had something similar to Black 2 White 2 where Cheren also gives a hand in a double battle. They fight on their own but you also lend a hand taking some down. Maybe Leon takes down most of them on his own but then on his way to defeat another, you get dragged into it instead with hop. Maybe there were more than one or something in the same place so he couldnt help. There are things that could rope the main protagonist in
@@antlerboylive I suppose quality over quantity is best. Not surprised how many subs you have these days, you are doing a great job. Have a great Christmas
@@EeveelutionLover22 if your doing Omega Ruby do water types if it's your first and you want to have fun you get swampert one of the best encounters for a hoenn nuzlocke and gyrados one of the best in general plus walrain and more
interesting fact, most people’s favourite colours are actually used as secondary colours or aren’t really used in their day to day life, an example would be that i love the colour pink, and most things i do have something to do with pink, however my favourite colour is cyan. idk it’s some weird psychological thing with it being a treasure to our brain so when we see it, it releases more happy chemical. i had a whole course about this in my graphics A-level
I love the Avatar-themed nicknames, I’ve literally watched the series over 3 times and have not heard much of it from others. Atleast I got a reminder of the series ;) | These videos are epic keep it going man!
You know, people complain that Hop and Hau pick the starters that are weak to yours… but Monotype Nuzlockers always pick the one that gives the rival an advantage (if they can’t use a starter.) Hypocrites. Maybe they wanted to be challenged too.
I dont understand why someone would be upset about the champion doing something for their own region lmao its one of the weird things about pokemon where adults act like petty children and kids have to take care of them that doesn't make sense for leon to have a decent impact over his region is good and him not making us do it is good
Antlerboy: (on Carkol getting the Ancient Power omniboost) “Sometimes the RNG gods bless you.” Futaba: (one of her lines when you open a chest in Persona 5 Strikers) “The RNG gods smile upon us!” Same energy.
I’m torn here. I love your runs and the fact that you doing one with my all-time favorite Pokémon type, but why’d you gotta do my boy Cinderace so dirty? 😂 I know he’s not the best, but he was the first starter I ever got to choose and I’ll always have a soft spot for him.
Cinderace is literally my all-time favorite pokemon, I picked it a nuzlocke and she sadly died right before the champion fight. The nuzlocke wasn’t my first run, I did like, 3 runs before it
I always look forward for AntlerboyLIVE Pokémon vids. They straight up make my day better. Was feeling down and this video, in less than 3 minutes, made me feel a lot better
Leon was one of the few actually competent champions who solved problems by themselves without having to rely on the kid who got their first Pokemon two days ago. He is advertised as the strongest in Galar and that's true right up until your match with him.
I saw incineroar in the thumbnail and instantly clicked on the vid, love incin. (They're my smash ultimate main). I also absolutely loved the Avatar name theme. Hilariously enough I was watching Avatar around the time you were recording this.
"How does that make any sense at all?" You can pick something solely because you like it (Also so the champion has the starter super effective against yours)
I just finished the video and that was close, nice video:) I love avatar i watched it alot when i was younger and from time to time i find myself rewatching it
The fact that you don't love Scorebunny, Raboot and Cinderace disgusts me. Genuinely one of the best starter lines to me. Thats just my opinion of course just my thoughts
Just now discovered that you can get a lvl 15 Arcanine that knows Flamethrower/Crunch/Play Rough/Extremespeed by the first time you reach Motostoke which is pretty freakin wild
Honestly Incineroar is my least favorite fire starter and I like Cinderace slightly more than that thing. I much prefer Houndoom over Incineroar for the dark/fire typing, but it doesn't exist for Sword and Shield sadly. But it's easily obtainable after the first badge in BDSP, not sure why it's labeled as rare since I tend to find a Houndoom every 5mins with each encounter. Not sure about getting the other fire starters, but I either need a lot of fire statues or they're post game in the underground, idk. My #1 favorite fire starter is Cyndaquil hands down and I'm serious and seeing it in the upcoming Legends Arceus has me excited to use it again in a playthrough
Incineroar is a polarising pokemon. Either you love it or hate it, for me it's actually my fav starter. Cinderace on the other hand is just really meh, like im indifferent towards it. For me being polarising is better than just being underwhelming
It looks like a Looney Toons character is what bothers me about Incineroar, I would've preferred if its final evolution looked like a feline version of Arcanine. And I don't really like any of the Galar starters that much, I mostly use Cinderace cause of its fire/fighting move pool without being a dual element Pokemon which I find odd cause of its design. Grookey line I don't like cause I've never liked the monkey Pokemon, though Mankey and Primeape I don't mind as much cause they don't look like monkeys all that much and are just furballs with limbs. The Soble line is probably my favorite Galar starter, but only out of the Galar starters. My favorite water starter is still the Squirtle line, don't know how I feel about Greninja as I haven't played X or Y yet. My favorite grass starter is the Treecko line cause I do like reptiles
@@firstswordcorvus7368 but that's the point.. it looks different from the usual feline pokemon we have. We have tons of quadruped feline pokemon as it is and incineroar really stands out by being so different. And looking like a looney toons character is subjective because i think Cinderace looks even more like one than Incineroar does lol. Looking at the thumbnail of this video, incineroar looks so badass and full of character Grookey line is my fav of gen lol. I just tend to prefer more bulky looking pokemon. Inteleon looks way to skinny for my liking But ehh this just shows we all have out own personal taste
You made a good point about max raids as part of the story where we fight alongside Hop and Leon. The anime did something similar. too bad we didn't see it in the game...
Great Video! i don't usually play a fire monolocke. Im actually doing a grass monolocke in pokemon shield rn. Im worried for the ice, ghost, and fire gyms lol. (also this video just reminded me of how much i wanna see how they do a fire/fairy type)
heres why hop chooses the starter weak to yours: because he knows that leon will choose the one super effective against yours so you have a harder time battling leon and if hop beats you, he'll have an easier time with leon.
What run do you want next and how excited are you for the holidays? :D
How about ghost type only any pokemon game?
Ice type for the snowy winters and holidays? Any game
Delibirds only sword
Edit: all named santa
Edit 2: u can use more than one
I am a sucker for a Emerald nuzlocke.
Baby pokemon in pokemon gold
Actually, there is a really good reason for hop picking the weaker starter. He wants to get the stronger starter against leon. Meaning he wants to be super effective against the remaining starter, which leon gets
Wouldn’t he just pick sobble tho, its strong against charizard
What if YOU pick sobble
@@Chib9 then I would be a man of impeccable taste, even though I love all three galar starters
@@Chib9 leon would get grookey,so he picks scorbunny

@@shrapt3528 good point
Agreed
The way Zuko avenged his friends on 22:18 with the T pose dominance made this an awsome finale.
He put up the middle finger when it went off screen
Mai was the real MVP here. She set up so much sun that water was nothin to the team. Plus Aang's solar beam and Ninetales energy ball took out the trash
“I’m confident enough to beat this battle with Zuko Alone.”
Amazing line, 11/10

If Leon does everything for you... does that make him one of the only champions to do their job?
I love fire types! One of my fav types...
Glad you uploaded on Sunday tho!
And your A:TLA theme was cool!
That's the exact naming theme FlygonHG used for his Black 2 Nuzlocke with this type.
Seriously thought he was flygon hg at one point ngl.

This guy is a literal professional at Pokémon strategies. Its amazing.
Cinderace is my favourite galar starter pokemon. You just didn't use it very often to see what is capable of.
You are in the top echelon of nuzlockers imo, you have a great flair for narration that’s fun but doesn’t take itself too seriously
You know, people complain that Hop and Hau pick the starters that are weak to yours… but Monotype Nuzlockers always pick the one that gives the rival an advantage (if they can’t use a starter.)
Hypocrites.
Maybe they wanted to be challenged too.
I havent had anything to watch recently so the timing of this vid is perfect:)
I'd really see a species Nuzlock. Like bear types, or dog types. Etc
bEaNs
Turtles!
I loved the naming theme! It's literally fire 🔥🔥
I dont understand why someone would be upset about the champion doing something for their own region lmao its one of the weird things about pokemon where adults act like petty children and kids have to take care of them that doesn't make sense for leon to have a decent impact over his region is good and him not making us do it is good

That was scary, after watching him fail his 1st bdsp, that incineroar vs charizard fight was scary but i am glad he made it.
Watching Charizard take 1/2 health from rocks never gets old 😂
I’m torn here. I love your runs and the fact that you doing one with my all-time favorite Pokémon type, but why’d you gotta do my boy Cinderace so dirty? 😂
I know he’s not the best, but he was the first starter I ever got to choose and I’ll always have a soft spot for him.
Same man ( but he’s not my fav Pokémon but definitely top 10)
A lot of us old school guys hate when they make Pokémon look like people. It’s just unsettling
"NOOOOOO U CANT LIKE DELPHOX AND CINDERACE THEY ARE FURRIES"

Hearing scorbunny being your least favorite starter hurt me more than it should

A pokemom red run would be super fun!! Everyone hits like a truck in that gen lol
It’s a great day when Antler and Silph upload on the same day 🎉🎉🎉
Antlers better lol
Yo, this posted right as I was doing a fire type only run of Pokémon sword. What a coincidence
Wait, Raboot can learn Electro Ball? Wow, you really do learn something new every day.
Definitely news to me as I have never used Sobble or Scorbunny for more than a few minutes.
Ooh! I should have given mine electro ball... Think I saw it and decided “nah” there for some reason
Fun fact hop didn’t pick the starter weak to your starter
He picked the one stronger to Leon’s
Opal just doesn't want to seem basic but pink is her favourite color she just doesn't want to say it
"How does that make any sense at all?"
You can pick something solely because you like it
(Also so the champion has the starter super effective against yours)
At least Hop had a two on one advantage in the first battle to justify his starter choice.
I just finished the video and that was close, nice video:)
I love avatar i watched it alot when i was younger and from time to time i find myself rewatching it
ah yes, Sokka, my favourite fire bender
I love how he always is about to swear and then says loudly ANYWAY
just listening to the voice antlerboy is soothing. He could be the new morgan freeman
The fact that you don't love Scorebunny, Raboot and Cinderace disgusts me. Genuinely one of the best starter lines to me. Thats just my opinion of course just my thoughts
AGAIN, *THERE IS NO E IN SCORBUNNY!*
I found your channel last week and am absolutely hooked on your videos keep up the amazing work
HOW COULD YOU DISRESPECT MY BOI CINDERACE HE IS A LEGEND
Just now discovered that you can get a lvl 15 Arcanine that knows Flamethrower/Crunch/Play Rough/Extremespeed by the first time you reach Motostoke which is pretty freakin wild
Honestly I’ve been kinda neutral to the fire type (except for chandelure, that thing is amazing) but this has made me like it slightly more
Great video! Love your videos! Love your nuzclokes!! What a treat, one of my fav games and one of my fav types! Let's gooooooooo!!!!
That wooper bit was hilarious
missed opportunity to say you and kabu were having a agni kai
Loses Uber tier starter Cinderace ; "YoURe tRaSh kiD"
Your last challenge of the year should be holiday/winter themed Pokémon like Stantler, Delibird, Abomasnow, Cryogonal, etc.

Hey, i know im late but cinderace is the best starter in galar, but it’s fine, i respect everyone’s opinion :)
When u said sokka I immediately thought a normal type would be the perfect Pokémon for him 😂
The fire type is the second favourite type so this was fun to watch like all of your videos
Can we just take a second and marvel at how awesome torracat looks.... especially before it evolves
Hop picks the starter that has the advantage against leons

How dare you say that about Cinderace I think he’s the best starter final evo in fact the scorbunny is the best starter line.
no
The Scorbunny hate was insanely funny! I was like dang he cant catch a brake 😭😭
I wonder when they’ll add an Australian themed Pokémon region, we’re like perfect Pokémon fodder.
I see an upside down region

I’d love to see a run with Electric types. I watch a few nuzlockers on UA-cam and I don’t recall seeing an Electric type only run
Thanks for the Avatar themed nicknames
All avatat name by fire type pokemon but i like it ice is next is Christmas man keep going great video
Next challenge should be a sword and shield shiny only nuzzlocke, to end up the year perfectly
I don’t know why everyone hates on Cinderace! 🔥
heres why hop chooses the starter weak to yours: because he knows that leon will choose the one super effective against yours so you have a harder time battling leon and if hop beats you, he'll have an easier time with leon.
That Wooper reference was much appreciated, but the joke about his **** wasn’t so much
Hop picks the starter that’s weak against yours because then Leon will have the stronger starter.
This is one of the best nuzlocks 😍 avatar theme and the best game 😍 keep it up antler 👍
If you hate Cinderace so much then why don't you just replace it with something else like Flareon from the beginning?
I guess you could say that Flopsy got BODIED BY BODY PRESS
