The most overlooked thing about Umbreon specifically in Platinum is how easily it trivializes Candice, or rather her Frosslass. Give it an Aspear Berry in case Blizzard freezes, immune to Psychic, resists Shadow Ball, and Faint Attack doesn't care about Double Team+Snow Cloak
Yes 100%, umbreon hard counters frosslass. It's great. I really like using umbreon tbh, it's just a shame it's movepool is awful in gen 4.
@@psyduckspice It's movepool is still awful in later gens too. The only thing that changed is starting in either gen 5 or 6, Foul Play was available for Umbreon, but also exclusively as a tutor move. Just stick to Toxic stall in game
Edit: Also, unrelated, but the whole Umbreon vs Candice thing comes from experience. There was one other major pokemon that made sure Umbreon could perform to it's fullest, and that was specifically Thick Fat Azumarill. 4x ice resist to repeatedly pivot and bait Shadow Ball
Hey least its slightly better in later gens, for example learning moonlight at Lv33 instead of Lv71! but yeah looking at it, its not much better. Huh, finding a use for thick fat azumarill, well done!
Seeing that Eevee can learn bite by level up, so immediately evolving to Umbreon lost you that move
I always get at least Bite on Eevee so it'd be another type move besides Quick Attack
Small chanells like this always have the greatest potential and I am here to support every one I stumble across. Alot of HCN uses the same Ideas over and over again making this genre of content pretty reptitive,hell even the people who spearheaded this genre are struggling to find unique ideas. This is the only unique nuzlocke I have seen in a while and playing with a ruleset like this one of the harder games takes some serious commitment and skill and I praise you for that I hope another 2 zeros gets added to your current sub count quick or atleast a sizable loyal audience
Thank you so much! Really kind of you too say. I think it's very easy to fall into the trap of just doing monolockes so Im trying with different ideas. I say that my next video is a monolocke, but I've still got loads of of different ideas so hopefully we one day do add two 0s to that sub count!
Glad I could help Cinder evolve! I'd also be interested to hear how you come up with your ideas for different nuzlockes to run, if you have a specific process
Ah you noticed my subtle hints then! good question, I have a note pad and whenever I think of something that could be a cool idea I write it done so I dont forget. I think the ruleset for this video came from something Flygon HG suggested he might do if I remember correctly.
You were smart to do this in Platinum, because you have access to both HM's and Move Tutors according to your ruleset. Many of these attacks were pivotal to your win, so, nice job there!
Thanks! I think this run was a lot easier than I thought it would be due to HM'S, Move Tutors and EV's. Was still super fun though, I'll have to try it again at some point without EV's
It took me a minute to get the naming scheme. Tbh it's fitting because the additional rules makes this the Dark Souls of nuzlockes.
I know right!
Psyduckspice catching and battling with a Psyduck is peak gaming
I need to find a way to use a psyduck in run at some point
Really good video, but i find the music to be a bit loud relative to your voice. That makes it a bit difficult to follow along sometimes
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks, feedback like that is really useful because im still fairly new at this. Ill keep it in mind for next time.
Dude. Where are your subs??? Your videos are top notch!
They must be hiding somewhere! Thank you!
This is brilliant btw.
As painfill as it must have been for you with the random team member deaths from just rushing ect.
Its so much more relatable and makes the challenge run more entertaining for the audience.
So many Hardcore Nuzlockers spend far too long analysing every fight to ensure they make the whole run deathless. But the pain of losing some of your best team members to random trainers just cause you weren't paying full attention is what makes nuzlockes unique and its something we can all relate to. Which is what makes it seem so much more realistic and enjoyable.
That's before you factor in the crazy extra rules you applied which makes it even more entertaining and very impressive to win the run.
Considering many of us have wiped to Cynthia on runs without nuzlocke rulesets 😳
Great video as always 👏🏼
Thank you! I feel like its probably a lot more genuine to lose a random pokemon to not paying attention, even if I get why pro nuzlockers dont have it happen very often (they do do this for a living). I rarely even use a damage calculator tbh, unless its an important fight. I dont know how bigger youtubers have the patience to use it as often as they do. Thanks, the run was strangely easier than I thought it would be, mostly becaus I ev trained and Plat gives you so many good pokemon. Still a very fun and challenging run, glad you enjoyed it!!
I so agree with this comment. I feel like overanalysing and planning every turn turn by turn for hours ruins the suspense and fun of nuzlocking. Also just playing way too sweatily in general, they are funnest when played in a fun manner
Loved the Dark Souls niknames haha
Thanks, I did think it fit really well!
Super impressive run, love the super hard nuzlocke rules. Keep up the good work, got a new fan in me.
Thank you so much! Happy to have you!
I like the dark souls names, fitting for a more difficult nuzlocke than average
Yeah I thought it was a cool idea. I do try to have my naming theme make sense, sometimes at least
Awesome video bro👍😎😎
Really enjoyed it
Btw you are really good at this I will try this nuzlocke too
Thank you! Glad you liked it! Yeah I've had a lot of practice. Good luck! Plat makes this run really fun with all the amazing Pokémon you can get.
Hello! I'm just here to comment on the video, say hi, and thank you for the video! (I am being very careful to avoid spoiling any of it for future viewers. Gosh, I'm considerate!)
Glad you enjoyed! Clearly deserve a medal
great video! you deserve many more subs
Thanks! very kind of you to say!
Really enjoyed the vid and the rules you used for this nuzlocke.
As some other comments have mentioned, music is a touch loud
Also, just curious, but why does the kricketot at 1:48 show up as already caught, I assume it’s something with not having the footage of the original capture, but again, just curious 😅
Thank you! Yeah people did mention that, luckily I think I've fixed it for later videos. Oh, it's because I actually caught one on the route you get your starter on (forget the number) before remembering I'd already gotten my starter on that route and it shouldn't have counted as an encounter.
Nice catch, I was curious if anyone would notice
These rules are a really fun riff on a regular nuzlocke! Fun video, might have to give this a go in emerald
Thanks! Ohh emerald is a good choice, I bet it'll be fairly hard!
Im doing a platinum hc nuzlocke this gave me some cool ideas good run
Ohh you posting it anywhere?
That bidoof hate is disturbing frfr
Enjoyed the Video, but music was a bit too loud and you spoke a little too fast for my taste. But that could also have been due to the music 😅
Someone else mentioned that! Im gonna try and speak a bit slower in the future and I hopefully if nothing else I at least fixed the music/voice balance in my latest video! Glad you liked the video.
Thanks for the feedback
shoutout to bell gargoyles i hate that boss
I kinda love it ngl. Something about the oh s*** moment the first time you see the second one spawn in for the first time has a special place in my heart.
@@psyduckspice for some reason on my recent like 5th attempt to finish the game(i gave up after anor londo), i kept getting whopped by the bell gargoyles. i was going crazy
It is a bit of a learning curve! falling off the top of the church is always an issue.
@@psyduckspice it didn’t even bother me last time but for some reason i just spent like an hour on it. oh well, eventually we move on
blighttown wasn’t even that bad
@@empressmako Thats rather funny ngl! Blighttown is never as bad as it used to be on the xbox 360 when it ran at 15 fps, good times.
Why did you not use zubat against gardenia?
Even being 4x resistance the other three I brought I felt would work better.
I like these rules
Yeah it made for a fun run! gonna try it again at some point
I wonder if you'd get to e4 with that ruleset in renegade platinum or blaze black. Okay. Comment made, now let's see if you can actually finish this challenge
Maybe? Be a very cool idea.
Obligatory comment to appease the algorithm gods 🙏
We must make a sacrifice.
dark souls references get your video liked from me for free
Gotta love finding another souls fan, favourite game?
@@psyduckspiceone of them for sure but they’re definitely my favorite series of games
Sorry I meant which souls game is your fav? Yeah they're up there for me aswell. I've played probably to much souls
@@psyduckspice oh my bad, my favorites probably bloodborne, which ik is a basic answer but it just feels so unique. Its also the only one I ever got a platinum trophy in
@@lord5582 Tbf that would also be my choice, or sekiro. Strangely the only two i havent got the plat for
U cheat for rare candies ?
Yes 100%
@@psyduckspice and u put ev on them with save editor too?
@Jonathan-dy9ju depends on the run honestly, sometimes I do sometimes I don't
