Pekora being incredibly smug about Gyrados' 4x electric weakness, while simultaneously forgetting that her electric type is also part fire and that Gyrados is a water type, is peak Pekora.
I spit my coffee when i heard pekora gonna outspeed Grusha's Beartic when I'm fully aware that Grusha's Beartic has Aqua Jet. Her reaction is hilarious and got me good
man, when Bon get kamikaze’d by Larry’s Flamigo, it felt so sad and I wasn’t prepared for that Gachimon is the man, he survived till the end of the story, what a touching playtrough
This is why pekora pokemon gameplay is my favourite. Like all her pokemon has their story (she gives it) so when it fainted it was really hard to see. But my favourite is Tonpei. Tonpei being ignored at first, being her punching bag, then it fainted just make me sad
Sad thing is that Tani (Tinkaton) only died because she had to swap out of the bird. It took an extra attack and if it didn't i think it could have killed Tatsugiri.
How does one even attempt a Nuzlocke challenge when you switch your pokemon to Magnezone (electric/steel type) WHEN YOU KNOW THE OPPONENT HAS EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!
because Pekora's not doing the typical Nuzlocke, it's a Challenge Mode made by the Japanese, similar to Nuzlocke with the exception that Fainted Pokemon are revived when you finish the story mode not just beating the Champion. For example, if you do this Challenge on Heart Gold Soul Silver you can't revive your Fainted Pokemons after beating Lance the first time. You get your revive after you beat Red at Mount. Silver.
@@CrowitzerTheHoloFan Honestly a cool way to do it especially if you're doing the challenge for a game blind/playing a new game. It would suck to just not keep playing a game you're new to just bc it's a death involved run.
Pekora needs to study her type matchups 😵 but it does come down to opponents having good coverage. As a Torterra enjoyer tho, seeing her field a Grass/Ground against an ice type hurts lmao
With death 1, she fell into the common trap. Odds are pretty good that the enemy Pokémon, unless the tera type is the same as the base type or is a player owned mon, does NOT have moves that match its tera type. Always plan accordingly lol.
@@raphses6871 You see, she did a contest called a Nuzlocke. If a Pokemon dies then she can't use that Pokemon ever again until she beats the game (that includes other Pokemon of the same species she can catch in the wild). If it's only hurt then she could heal it but she can't revive them unless she's fails the contest
For real though that was a terrible idea from chat to use Flame Charge with Ceruledge. You don't need to raise your stats versus gym leaders.... if you do, you're underleveled. Beartic is slow without Slush Rush and a Bitter Blade would have killed it in one, while Ceruledge likely would have survived one Aqua Jet even if he went for that on the first turn.
More so even if it used aqua jet as the first move Bitter blade would just heal the dmg. There was literally no reason at all to listen to chat and boost its speed as nothing was threatening to OHKO it and any dmg done to it by a faster mon would just be recovered by Bitter Blade
It could have been a case of chat lag leading to the wrong decision. Flame Charge vs. Frossmoth is 100% safe there thanks to the x4 weakness and it not being particular fast or threatening. The chat specifically said to set up flame charge while they are weak, I assume. Beartic is slow but certainly not weak with 130 base attack. Even not knowing about aqua jet, Bitter Blade 0hko's with most stat set ups except for really unfavorable ones. The safest strat once that hole was dug was a switch to the duck. It takes the aqua jet well and kills with a fighting move before Beartic can deal any real damage. It can also take a single earthquake+aqua jet to do the same thing assuming no crits. Edit: Frossmoth, not Frosslass
Raising stats, in general, isn’t that bad of an idea depending if your Pokémon can survive the hit. I had an Abamosnow with Snow Warning that had Aurora Veil and a Cloyster with Shell Smash. It was able to sweep cause of the resistance Cloyster got XD
@merabledawnspark5827 im talking about a story mode gym battle, not competitive strats. A potato with a switch taped to it could beat a gym leader. In a competitive setting, speed is one of the most important factors of course. If you're worried about Ceruledge being slow, use the weak armor ability with a white herb as its generally bulky enough to take resisted and neutral hits even with uninvested defense and then heal up with bitter blade.
@@potatoexe5410 Might have been due to chat delay. It's possible they were saying to do it against the Frosmoth and she saw the messages afterwards, got confused, and thought they meant the Beartic. Either way a brilliant throw by chat lmao
You get to pick which Pokémon in the open you want to pick but they have to be careful bc there are a lot of small ass Pokémon. Cheap yes but you can still get unlucky. The only bad thing is to remember which you have encountered.
arent we glad pokemon didnt go the manga formet:) i wish it did thou ii want to kill those tiny tings spawning/rendering in front of me while i am exploring so badly
Pekora being incredibly smug about Gyrados' 4x electric weakness, while simultaneously forgetting that her electric type is also part fire and that Gyrados is a water type, is peak Pekora.
Ironically it might have survived if it was faster than gyarados and she just attacked.
@@krnsk563 also in her hype she just forgots that Overheat fucked Abarai's Special Attack stat so there's no point on making it stay anyways
...would have rubbed it in even worse if it had Earthquake.
Type coverage is a bitch.
@@XellosNi well...all rotom forms have levitate so it's immune to earthquake
Hey Opal! Fancy seeing you here!
The moment when she boxed Tonpei, truly hits. From not wanting it in her party to the sad goodbye.
Tonpei!!!
Those deaths have such story, lore, and comedic timing. As expected of Pekora.
Pekora apologizing to each of the "graveyard" mons was cute
I spit my coffee when i heard pekora gonna outspeed Grusha's Beartic when I'm fully aware that Grusha's Beartic has Aqua Jet. Her reaction is hilarious and got me good
Pekora:my path to becoming champion may be bloody. But someone has to do it.
Nemona:I so wanna battle her again
The deaths are comedic, but the welcome back is wholesome af
man, when Bon get kamikaze’d by Larry’s Flamigo, it felt so sad and I wasn’t prepared for that
Gachimon is the man, he survived till the end of the story, what a touching playtrough
The fact that Tonpei went right back in the party...my heart...
_Twice._ When she jumped the gun on reviving her Pokemon, Tonpei was already back in her party before chat could even tell her she wasn't done.
Not just that, but she picked Tonpei over Bon...her STARTER pokemon. That pig came a long way...
Her comedic timing is on other level, I like Bon-chan dead the most, Larry & that pink flamingo went out like a boss lol.
This is why pekora pokemon gameplay is my favourite. Like all her pokemon has their story (she gives it) so when it fainted it was really hard to see.
But my favourite is Tonpei. Tonpei being ignored at first, being her punching bag, then it fainted just make me sad
Thank you for translating the last portion of the video where she apologizes and welcome back her fainted Pokemon. ♥
Pekora lost more pokemon than I’ve ever seen someone lose in a nuzlock.
Gachimon (Mankey) is the only stable member that survives the whole journey.
She also used Forretress and Glimmora at one point.
Im surprised that that oinkologne survived so long and that she kept it in the team so long
He was really a great starter carrying Pekora through the elite4, Good job Tonpei.
Watching Pekora play pokemon is like watching an anime.
Pekora wasn't listening when they talked about type matchups
She took tonpei back over her starter. Amazing development.
The Flamingo was like: "That's it! If I go, I'm taking you to hell with me."
Losing a party member right at the final boss has got to be the most painful thing.
Sad thing is that Tani (Tinkaton) only died because she had to swap out of the bird. It took an extra attack and if it didn't i think it could have killed Tatsugiri.
Pekora: This pig is stupid, and ugly, and useless. You better prove your worth or you're off the team.
Also Pekora: Nooooo!! Tonpei!! Don't die!!
Character development in a nutshell.
How does one even attempt a Nuzlocke challenge when
you switch your pokemon to Magnezone (electric/steel type)
WHEN YOU KNOW THE OPPONENT HAS EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!
And people wonder why I don't do Nuzlockes...
Houndstone: "WOOF... that's a lotta tombstones!?"
So much deaths 😩 the pain of being a Pokemon trainer. But she made it 👍
Nice vid and nice translation.
I like the revive/returning the mons section, most just released them or leave them in the box forever

Lol the only one who survived till the ending was Gachimon
yet, to evolve it had to "die"...so did he really survive? lol
@@aerenntyne1099 kinda poetic isn't it
In the end the fucking monkey is still alive
@@aerenntyne1099 he killed himself to erase his own concept of death so no one can claim his life.
Pekora: i'm faster!
Beartic: HAHA +1 Priority Aqua Jet go brrrr!
I'm glad she did not choose more restricted rules on her nuzlocke cuz it'll be even harder for her.
Even war criminals have feelings
It's like wishing everyone back to life with the dragon balls at the end. 🥺
I knew right away that Beartic was going to have a priority move.
This poor women, when ever her pokemon died, her soul left her body
That Aqua Jet really hurt
Aqua Jet Outspeeds
I love to see these sorts of compilations of Karma.
Pekora needs to study her type matchups 😵 but it does come down to opponents having good coverage. As a Torterra enjoyer tho, seeing her field a Grass/Ground against an ice type hurts lmao
Literally everything she does is so comedic lol
🥕A Certified Peko Classic🥕
Thanks much for this :)
Why the heck does The bear knows Aqua Jet ?! LMAOOOO that’s not fair at all 😂
Wasn't aware Peko was doing the Nuzlock challenge.
Or why she's pissed every single time her pokemon got knocked out?
i love how she always smug at first
Wow, I honestly didn't know Nuzlockes were a thing in Japan.
0:57 lmao
I lost my level 5 wooper and that's all I lost on my first run
Love that everytime she go smug, she get fug
Nice compilation
Pekora the comedian
How does a nuzlock work in the new games? Close your eyes and run straight until you hit something?
Ghost super effective to its own type
With death 1, she fell into the common trap. Odds are pretty good that the enemy Pokémon, unless the tera type is the same as the base type or is a player owned mon, does NOT have moves that match its tera type. Always plan accordingly lol.
4:43 BW Satoshi moment
She killed the Arctibax on purpose tbh.
Pekora's Requiem for her mons... 😔😔
Dragon super effective to its own type
Flamingo is vicious just ask calliope
Mori Senpai
I never liked the BGM during tera, but it fits so well with Pekora screaming.
Just to be clear, they’re not incapacitated permanently, right?
Correct, they were only temporarily incapacitated until she beat the game (the last few minutes of the clip)
Wait, you mean you can’t heal them at a Pokemon Center in this game?
@@raphses6871 You see, she did a contest called a Nuzlocke.
If a Pokemon dies then she can't use that Pokemon ever again until she beats the game (that includes other Pokemon of the same species she can catch in the wild). If it's only hurt then she could heal it but she can't revive them unless she's fails the contest
Didn't she use Haxorus in SwSh's battle tower?
6:03 Pokemon these days are so fucked, look at that walking animation
Oh no not Tonpei 😭
4:04 Pekora doesn't know priority moves 😂🤣
How was she doing Nuzlocke? Was it one pokemon per pokemon center since there isn't really routes in the game?
Iirc it was just faint=dead and she was catching whatever the hell she felt like
technically shes doing jinsei shibari, which is basically just like fire emblem classic mode.
I think she also not using(catching)any pokemon that she uses before, including the one from pokemon BDSP.

The best nuzlocker in the world (certified*) uses a roulette with all the Pokemon in the area to decide
