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
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
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.
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!
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 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.
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
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
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.
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...
@@ultima1594 i just find it cooler than the other 2, Inteleon is pretty cool too I just don’t like Rilaboom all that much, but I wouldn’t say Cinderace is the absolute best either
Fun fact: if you chose to play shield it would have been easier because instead of goodie(which is in sword) in shield he’s replaced by melony Edit: 10:01 uhhhhh were is arcanine in the poke balls (in the bottom)
Os it just me or is every 1st stage evo of every freaking starter they look like they're on their midlife crisis while there's gen 8 starters beig on their emo phase
I didn't know English speakers pronounced Mai as May. The more you know I pronounce Mai as: the "m" from "menace" the "a" from "account" and the "i" from "intelligence"
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

Wouldn’t he just pick sobble tho, its strong against charizard
What if YOU pick sobble
@@ChibGaming543 then I would be a man of impeccable taste, even though I love all three galar starters
@@ChibGaming543 leon would get grookey,so he picks scorbunny
@@thePersonoyt I mean in Mr. Ahmed''s theory
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

I’m so with you on that my dude I hop when he gets to 100k he will become a full time youtuber
👏👏👏

@@shrapt3528 good point
Agreed
Amazing run! Shout-out to torkoal, the silent backbone of the team for always providing sun and taking strong hits when necessary
0:20 Somebody please caption this.
I hate to be that guy, but I like your vids dude :)
When you forget about the praying
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.

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? 😂

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"
*proceeds to praise zoroark and lucario*

He is advertised as the strongest in Galar and that's true right up until your match with him.
I found your channel last week and am absolutely hooked on your videos keep up the amazing work
Can we just take a second and marvel at how awesome torracat looks.... especially before it evolves
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...
Ah yes, Azula’s “trusty friend” Mai
Your last challenge of the year should be holiday/winter themed Pokémon like Stantler, Delibird, Abomasnow, Cryogonal, etc.
Incineroar’s animation kills me 😂
Amazing video in less than a minute
Scorbunny is clearly the best galar starter
I dare you to try pokemon platinum nuzlocke fire type only.
Great video as always
When I saw you encountered salandit, I knew you gonna name it Azula 😂
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
All avatat name by fire type pokemon but i like it ice is next is Christmas man keep going great video
Merry Christmas Antlerboy, and a Happy New Year 2022.! Thank you for awesome videos!
my cat loves your vids so im gonna sub =)
Your voice is my daily dose of serotonin 😫✋🏽
No volcarona..... I am the disapoted
This is one of the best nuzlocks 😍 avatar theme and the best game 😍 keep it up antler 👍
Next challenge should be a sword and shield shiny only nuzzlocke, to end up the year perfectly
Finally, someone else who really doesn’t like Cinderace
I cannot... refuse... diglet.... must subscribe.
Nessa and gordie is pretty hard since they have super effective moves on fire type
Bruh when he said team avatar after naming them all evil characters except two
Yay Flopsie! I like the avatar references.
The torkoal should have been Roku.
Im just angry that he wasn't even sad for the dead of cinderace,such a good pokemon in my opinion😤
Since no one else said it I will…..
Then everything changed when the Fire Nation Poke mon attacked.
I don't remember Leon having a Mr. Rime
if you answer the pink or purple riddle wrong, she'll tell you that she likes it for others, but when wearing it herself, she likes purple
I love the nick name theme Bc avatar was my childhood show
sort of sad because you didn't get to use talonflame
Play Pokemon Y with only Electric types because Y NOT?
And put them mobile phone names
Hol up, litten and torkoal are both a part of the field egg group. Is there any…interest between the two?
I actually hate scorbunny too I'm glad I'm not the only one 🤣🤣🤣
Really love your vids
Lmao rip Sokka
antler: ok pokemon your going to be characters from avatar : the last airbender
W because avatar the best and sokka is my fav
23:00 Omg i forgot about the mouse cursor in the credits lmao
missed opportunity to name vulpix kurama
love the name theme
When he a d he hate scrobunny I died bc it's my favorite pokemon ever
May I ask which Galar starter is your favorite? Mine is Inteleon, and I am very happy to acknowledge that Cinderace isn’t that great
I actually like Cinderace over the other two and fail to see why others hate it so much
@@skellethon1060 I like Cinderace, I just don’t get why people think it is so amazing.
@@ultima1594 i just find it cooler than the other 2, Inteleon is pretty cool too I just don’t like Rilaboom all that much, but I wouldn’t say Cinderace is the absolute best either
also, ice type in BnW but only winter season because christmas
i have a slight feeling that he likes avatar
I appreciate the sword and shield content due to the lack of owning bdsp
My Pokemon team would be
Galar Farfetchd
Espeon
GMAX Pikachu
DMAX Haunter
Intelion
Beedrill
These Gym/League could be somewhat harder if you restricted your teams members to match the leaders for their battles
How do you not like cinderace
Fun fact: if you chose to play shield it would have been easier because instead of goodie(which is in sword) in shield he’s replaced by melony
Edit: 10:01 uhhhhh were is arcanine in the poke balls (in the bottom)
11:00 I agree, they should let us help.
Can you do a Pokemon sword grass nuzlocke?
Hey when are we gonna start seeing some 2 player nuzlocks? Them collabs will be sick
00:24 click here to start the video
Please do more sword nuzlockes!
Got his starter and knew it was death fodder 😭
Putting ATLA names is fun :D
Id love to see you do a nuzlocke as chairman Rose or oleana
Pls can u do Pokemon shining pearl Nuzloacke Steel type
Ayy new vid live it i love fire type too
Did you notice that cinderace photo in the pokeball was actually from Pokemon unite
i see you are very into Avatar The Last Airbender that time
FIRE!!!
It's fine for one upload because of editing and how long nuzlockes take to do
Wow i love fire types thx
is the event still on?
Also, Merry Christmas guys! (and belated Sant Nicholas day for those Swiss people, and some other religions)
WAIT THERE WAS AN EVENT TO GEN GEN 7 STARTERS? NOOOOOO, wish i played the game all the time like i used to so i knew this
4:34 look closely on Zula's health
Nice
I'm just wondering why you never show zaican and eturneus in the videos
da fiah lol
How do u got that red outfit from the beginning
how menny takes did it take to win?!
Opal likes pink on others now her self
Cinderace is pretty good
firedave
Os it just me or is every 1st stage evo of every freaking starter they look like they're on their midlife crisis while there's gen 8 starters beig on their emo phase
Zuko survived very low like 3 or 2 times
y'know guys, i get the feeling antlerboy doesn't like the galarian starters
Why hate scorbunny 🤨
I like with scorbunny line😢
I didn't know English speakers pronounced Mai as May.
The more you know
I pronounce Mai as: the "m" from "menace" the "a" from "account" and the "i" from "intelligence"
Its just how they pronounce it and spell it in the show!
@@Antlerboy thanks! I didn't know
I won’t lie I was about to exit the video if the saladit wasn’t named Azula but it was so I’m happy
DO NOT LEAVE OFF THE N IN SALANDIT!
