This format looks great. If you can find a medium between this and the ones you stream you might just have the perfect format overall. One that I hope can be extended to the franchise Nuzlocke once you decide to resume it. (Honestly my main suggestion is to do one Alola run, a couple other runs, then the next Alola run. Interspersing softens the burnout.)
A little tip for anybody doing a nuzlock in gen 3 and onwards, once you have access to vending machines you basically don't need any other healing items for a great majority of the rest of the game. Fresh water is basically a super potion that you can get 3 of for the same cost. In rse there is the soda hut below slateport on the beach that you can get soda pops for (again) less than a super potion but again it cotsts less than it. This is useful for saving money for other important things that need it.
@@MasterCrawford343 it is I banned gyarados as well so I use different encounters and made my own rules for it so it’s not a traditional one but still hard
Kirlia also learns Calm Mind at 21, so it would've learned it regardless of evolving or not. But sometimes we just wanna hang onto the little ones for just a little while longer.
The concept of a solo type nuzlocke that is weak to the specific game's antagonist I think kept things pretty interesting despite Alakazam and Gardevoir being so op. Another great one. Loved the recent gen 2 run as well
I’m just gonna be the one to say this, but I don’t think he ever intends to finish his Franchise Locke. Don’t get me wrong, for anyone that enjoys his content I fully encourage you to keep watching and supporting the channel, cuz he has released some good content and only stand to get better with support, however this guy at least to me wasn’t known until the Franchise Locke began. If you even search up his stats, his channel boosted in popularity around last September, around the time he released the first franchise locke video. That there is no coincidence. However it’s likely a tactic, as he’s probably afraid he’ll lose viewers and subscribers if he finishes the franchise locke. It’s smart honestly, as this alone has kept me subscribed anticipating the next franchise Locke video, but it’s time to draw a line. I will say that him thinking he could nuzlocke all the games by the release of scarlet and violet, let alone the end of 2022 was a pipe dream, especially when balancing it with whatever commitments are going on in his outside life, but at this point it’s been months since the last release. Burnout is a real thing, and it is important to take care of oneself, but in the real world it’s no excuse to bag on your commitments fully because of burnout. I’m sure I’m not the only who who has thought this.
So quick info for ya meatball that I actually learned myself from other poketubers: apparently Roxanne's nose pass will stop going for rock tomb if your stats have been lowered enough that it outspeeds. It's a weird gen 3 AI tying that happens in a lot of important boss/trainer battles
Personally, I prefer this editing format, it's cleaner in my opinion. Finding a way to balance this style with the ones that are streamed would probably provide great results.
Hey Meatball. I have a suggetion in regards to you Nuzlocke challenges: Single-type challenge. Basicly you can only use pokemon that only have 1 type unlike mono-type challenges where you can have the challenge type + another. "What about pokemon that gets another type upon evolution?": I would say they are a no-go but that would be up the player to decide that. I think this challenge would still be as hard/easy as other nuzlockes. I am planning on suggesting this exact same thing to other Nuzlockers
One of the very few times I’m gonna comment about an ad, but for a split second I thought Deathknight said “Hello, Meatballs” and I thought this was a case of “every copy of Raid Shadow Legends ad is personalized”
Hey Meatball, here's something that might make for good content; Fuselocke. Pokemon Infinite Fusion. Catch the first two pokemon each route and you must fuse them, that is your valid encounter. No species clause because you can actually fuse 2 of the same pokemon together and get a result. NGL the two best Pokemon fangames are Infinite Fusion and Unbound.
Just a little advice, you may be able to correct how your in-video sprite looks like (the outline has what I'd assumed are unwanted artifacts) by using an eraser at the pixel level and editing it on a transparent background. Because the editing on this video was of such a quality and fluidity I wanted to help pointing out any potential flaw, since you're on such a pro level!
Do I miss something, or was the beginning a complete punt? You catch Ralts which has no attacking move, so you have to use Struggle. But why do you use all your Growl PP on any other Pokeman than Ralts? Would have saved the healing, especially cause you level up on it anyways after depleting your Growl PP
The nosepass thing is because the AI sees rock tomb as a speed control move so after it's faster than you, it won't use it anymore. In other words: AI be broken yo!
Are chimeco and meditite in the same zone and ChaosM get lucky/unlucky to find chimeco first? And with Starmie maybe he just forgot it was part psychic because staryu is a pure water pokemon
This man teased us by saying at the end of one of this videos he said he was going to continue next video and that's been several months and videos ago
He probably won’t finish. His channel boosted in popularity through doing the franchiselocke, and it may be a tactic he’s doing purposefully out of fear he’ll lose subs if he finishes it. What I don’t get is he was burning out on Pokémon nuzlockes but continues to post nuzlockes?
Pretty sure you shot yourself in the foot at the beginning. Kirlia learns magical leaf upon evolving and calm mind at “lvl 21 too. Mightve allowed some flexibility with shock wave. Great video! Look forward to watching some more
Although you haven’t done a nuzlock of Pokémon who can learn x type moves but aren’t that type ie Pokémon who can learn fire moves but aren’t fire type using only fire moves.
So, let's take a moment to understand the Gen 3 AI and why the second attempt at Nosepass didn't use Rock Tomb. See, Gen 3 AI has this weird quirk where if it has a stat altering move and your Pokemon has a higher stat than their Pokemon does, they will always use the stat altering move. So if your Pokemon has a higher speed than Roxanne's Nosepass, it will always use Rock Tomb. But once Nosepass outspeeds your Pokemon, it'll use it's moves randomly (with the exception that it won't try to set up Block twice).
Hey, so I have been trying to beat USUM, but after 5 attempts I mostly wiped at the Water Trial. Anyone got some ideas for some counters to that spooder ? Encounters, that may be worth to reset for ? Edit: I have a levelcap, no items in battle and no Z-Moves (I am considering to allow Z-Moves for trials only, if I cant come up with a strategy though)
How did you end up getting Kadabra to evolve? (Might be a dumb question but just curious as to see if there’s any restrictions on trading on these type of runs)

Just finished and posted this exact challenge on my own channel a few days ago. Congrats, this one is a doozy.
The reason Roxanne's nosepass didn't go for rock Tomb (7:10), is that emerald Ai only goes for a move that drops your speed, if it doesnt outspeed you

I’ve been using this in my USUM nuzlocke genuinely a lifesaver

I'm glad you pivoted to other runs when the franchise Locke grind was leading to burnout. These are some great vids.
Kirlia also learns Calm Mind at 21, so it would've learned it regardless of evolving or not. But sometimes we just wanna hang onto the little ones for just a little while longer.
The way that whole Synchronize play may have been a little lucky, but it was pretty damn cool.

25:56 Ground uh doesn't resist fire, Claydol is just a massive tank. It was taking neutral damage from Flamethrower
I have to ask, did you forget Staryu was possible, or did you know and not want to use it/hunt for a water stone?
IO much prefer this style of video/presentation as opposed to the last couple
Are you ever going to finish your hardcore nozlock of all main line games?

Gotta love the Gardevoir line they super loyal & very strong

Chaotic amazing work I have been watching you for 2 years please make scarlet and violet professor oak challenge please I really love your vids ❤
I just posted this run on my channel a few days ago! Congrats on getting past all the mandatory dark types lol
I feel happy for Gardevoir being the MVP of this run. He deserved it.
Those of us who remember the FRLG legendary speedruns are very familiar with the click calm mind and sweep strategy
36:50 seeing all the open LGP/E monotype nuzlockes is hilarious 😂. Someone needs to destroy it with a fairy typing
The luck you had that none of the Mons in that Maxie Tabitha double battle decided to attack you. Especially the Mighteyena's

4:48 ohhh SHI 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
in the roxanne fight i think it chose those moves because the ai cheats and knows if a move will hit before it picks it
I loved the guitar clip in the sponsor "did someone say Megadeth?" XDDD
Simply put:
Calm Mind
One of the very few times I’m gonna comment about an ad, but for a split second I thought Deathknight said “Hello, Meatballs” and I thought this was a case of “every copy of Raid Shadow Legends ad is personalized”
Great challenge, I love how you solve problems=3
That raid ad was fire bro, love the creativity.

Why didn't you use Medicham or Starmie? Both seem like highly baffling omissions, especially since Medicham is one of your few Physical options.
Not sure about Starmie but I don't think you can get Medicham's previous form (can't spell its name) in Emerald at all...
Are chimeco and meditite in the same zone and ChaosM get lucky/unlucky to find chimeco first?
And with Starmie maybe he just forgot it was part psychic because staryu is a pure water pokemon
Its esmerald, doesnt exist medichan or lunatone
@@ruibarros9292 I thought Medicham was available in Victory Road, though?
@@moblinmajorgeneral No, Meditite and Medicham are Ruby/Sapphire exclusive.
I didn't have a way to hit dark types for super effective damage. Medicham sitting in the corner being fighting/psychic going "is this guy an idiot?"
Medicham isn’t obtainable in emerald. The only thing he missed was Starmie.
Read this as only psychic type moves and was really excited to see how you handled that
This was a great video! you are so great at nuzlockes. May I ask, what happened to the generationlocke? Are you ever gonna continue that?
This man teased us by saying at the end of one of this videos he said he was going to continue next video and that's been several months and videos ago

@@JoborockHe said he was burnt out on gen 7 which fair, those games are something else.
Will D/P only dragon type nuzlock?
I’ve always said Barry’s last fight should have a level cap, his team is a monster to deal with
Wait.... I didn't realize Holy Wars was part of the gen 3 soundtrack! Megadeth Knight is a great hero
I haven't watched this yet but I already know Medicham is gonna be the MVP. It's too OP in this gen
As he watched he figured out there was indeed no medicham
He didn't even get it,and i am shocked
@@nunocarvalho6671Not available in Emerald
Quick comment for the E4-if you get a setup baton passer with substitute, the first turn of the AI (i.e sand attack) will be avoided
"Did you expect me to say something else." I mean life was what I expected. Hp is good enough.
Ah yes, my favorite Pokemon game, "Nintendo Pokémon Versione Smeraldo". Thanks UA-cam.
Thanks for being true to the challenge but honestly would kill me to struggle passed poochyenas.
From your ad section, we have the same floor tiles
Pokemon platinum challenge w/only Darkrai. name urself Tobias, the anime trainer who used only this pokemon to win the 8 gym badges
With non-random AI, Wobbuffett is one of the greatest 'mons ever.
Are you ever going to finish the whole series nuzlock?
Pretty sure you shot yourself in the foot at the beginning. Kirlia learns magical leaf upon evolving and calm mind at “lvl 21 too. Mightve allowed some flexibility with shock wave. Great video! Look forward to watching some more
Kirlia doesn’t learn magical leaf by level up in RSE. It can get Magical Leaf in FRLG
MVP? In a psychic run?
It's Kadabra. It's ALWAYS Kadabra. The Abra line is perhaps THE most born lucky line in the franchise. They're just never bad.
Only if the enemy is bad. It's god wet paper defenses, and is easily one-shot by anything that can survive its attack.
Fighting D/P next! Machop Herracross
Awesome video
Always enjoy your videos
a 3 minute raids ad is insane
when you want maxx "c" banned
but you live in OCG region
Although you haven’t done a nuzlock of Pokémon who can learn x type moves but aren’t that type ie Pokémon who can learn fire moves but aren’t fire type using only fire moves.
Surprised you didn't go starmie
*haven't seen the video yet*
I know that's wasn't what you were going for but the Thumbnail kinda looks like: "See? Gardevoir has armpits!"
I dont think nosepass would use rock tomb on your second try because it was already faster, making its move choices random
I'm a much bigger fan of this format for sure.
Before watching, I'm just gonna say I hope you use Claydol
Good to see you back being Uber active mah boi. Love the content at house meatball 👨🍳
The sun was killed at the _Weather Institute_
HHMMMMMMMMMM
6:07 is what your looking for
This is just unfortunate game for this with Metagross and Lati being locked to post game 🙄
Have you ever done a mono Fighting-Type run of Gen. 7 yet or not?
I wouldn’t imagine he would as he doesn’t really like the alola games
GHOST TRICK REFERENCED!!!!!

i enjoy the style of this video
I'm going to take a wild guess and say Grumpig will be MVP.
God that plug was insufferable.
A few days ago I got a full odds shiny spoink in Pokémon emerald
I'm just curious what happened to the "we're nuzlocking every game" series- is that dead?
Hey, so I have been trying to beat USUM, but after 5 attempts I mostly wiped at the Water Trial. Anyone got some ideas for some counters to that spooder ? Encounters, that may be worth to reset for ?
Edit: I have a levelcap, no items in battle and no Z-Moves (I am considering to allow Z-Moves for trials only, if I cant come up with a strategy though)
(36:48) actually silph did this run a while ago I'm pretty sure. I may be wrong
Nope, that was in Ruby. It's recorded on that spreadsheet I showed.
@@ChaoticMeatballTV oh 🤦🏽something told me I was wrong
Hey is it possible to do a Pokemon Colosseum (or XD) run with only Solrock and Lunatone?
Without watching, gardevoir gonna be disgusting with psychic tbolt and Ibeam calm mind.
I think you can in your first attempt, but I think it takes more than one
I’m going to guess Starmie is the MVP
i tried this exact challenge a while ago, buuut my safe file got lost shortly before the 7th gym 😢
Would you have considered using starme in this game?
10:42 - 11:25 How lucky can be in a fight, even you get an extra sitrus berry
I'm surprised you didnt replace wobeffet with staryu
Wobbuffett is better and cuter.
Rip for ralts1 and solrock
How did you end up getting Kadabra to evolve? (Might be a dumb question but just curious as to see if there’s any restrictions on trading on these type of runs)
MVP of the run: Claydoll, just for the screens.
How did you get your kadabra to evolve into alakazam without trading?
the fact that u didnt catch starmie is anoys me lol
Interaction for the algorithm action !!
You made the Yu-Gi-Oh joke but Maxie's Hidden Ball Trick is banned in the Pokemon TCG so Maxie is banned
Why no one catches abra on route 116 before roxanne?
Could you have gotten staryu/starmie?
Why didn't you just burn all your growls against other Raltz in the begining?
cool vid but it looks like its lagging a lot, some visuals or not slowing down the video would help with viewing pleasure
Ice only Gen 1 please!
How did crystal Grass only get to Lance?
Dont play pokemon myself but love your content!
Blind guess: Metagross mvp
Yes, you probably can. Though I would like to see if you are able to and thus will watch this video presentation
Same lmao
