    You’re probably never going to see this, but I have a really cool idea for a Nuzlocke. Instead of doing mono runs and stuff like that I think it would be cool to see a run where you do like special moves only or physical moves only and it can be any type of Pokémon. Something totally different. 😁

I imagine it's going to need some special game-specific rule tweaks like how Ultra Sun & Moon allow for minor overleveling at times bc of the number of mandatory fights early on and inability to leave some trials once they start. Then again, if ppl managed to figure out how to nuzlocke Sword & Shield with the visible encounters, maybe they could adapt some of that for Legends.

      i feel like this is a joke comment?
      wild pokes are unpredictable and catching them puts the player in a semi-vulnerable situation of taking unpredictable attacks in the process. this is [likely] why flygonhg tosses the master ball despite increased catch rate (+quick ball buff + catching mons increasing the rate) when they could save the master ball for a catch in remaining routes which, arguably, could be the better choice depending on certain factors.
      also dunsparce is terrible.

    Hey flygon, love your channel! I see you're pumping out content really quick which is great, but don't forget to slow down every once in a while. I don't want you to get burnt out! Have a great day man

    I stayed up till 2 am to watch the twitch streams for this. I live in india so there was a pretty big time zone difference. I think this is the only challenge I will ever see live in twitch. For now I am very content watching the edited video on the channel. Dr.Flygon I also find your voice quite soothing as white noise while doing homework or art or anything of the sort.

    Throh is an absolute beast of a muppet. I caught one in my Pokemon White Nuzlock and he hard-carried me through that entire game. Partially because whenever I came across a difficult encounter, I'd toss him in the frontlines as punishment for killing most of my team while catching him. Thanks to that, I discovered just how bulky Throh is, just how broken a move that always crits can be. He eventually became my new favorite and I forgave him for killing four of my pokemon. Actually that Throh is a top contender for my favorite pokemon in any Nuzlocke I've ever done.

    An idea for a nuzlocke rule: "Grief and Rage". If you lose a pokemon, then the next time you can access a PC you must box all your pokemon in a specific box, then extract what's left to refill your roster. If you have no other pokemon, it counts as a wipe. You can only get your grieving mons back after you've cycled through everything in your box. It makes preparing for the elite four really tough, since losing a mon in the later story fights or gyms could throw your team into disarray. It also makes the more overlooked mons a bit more valuable. But once you're scraping the bottom of the barrel, a couple of strategic sacrifices could be what you need to cycle through and get your A-Team back.

    Idk why but every time you do a challenge in gen 6 it makes me happy. Partly because no one does challenges in gen 6 because it’s too easy.

  • @lauried.bunnykins9063
    @lauried.bunnykins9063 2 роки тому +1

    just saying, but i love seeing more of the gen 6 and onwards games on this channel. even though they may be easier, i think it adds just enough variety to where i no longer have that feeling of "you've been playing the same gen too much"

  • @froggy5748
    @froggy5748 Рік тому +2

    Watching this video after my sweet little dunsparce got an evolution (which always makes me laugh because he just got LONGER) was a bit confusing for a second because I somehow forgot dunsparce used to not have an evo, just like little girafarig.

    • @froggy5748

    Only seconds into the video and Dunsparce is immediately the most valuable mon because of how early you can get it. 10/10 video just for Dunsparce

    Hey so I don't know if I'm the only person but I know that I'm one of the people that recommended the challenge. Because I did playthroughs of multiple pokémon games using only pokémon that don't evolve. And so thank you I honestly really like that somebody did this

    • @AutisticJesusGaming
      @AutisticJesusGaming 2 роки тому +1

      And the main reason I did all these challenges was because I really enjoyed using Pokemon I hadn't before. It's really fun. I would highly recommend you try some other generations because they have some incredible variety as well.
