The Art of Pokémon Battling: A Nuzlocke Run Experience

As I began my Nuzlocke run, I knew that the journey ahead would be challenging. With only one potion available for each Pokémon, every decision would have to be made with caution and strategy. My first opponent was a Pidgey, who proved to be no match for me as I used Quick Attack after Quick Attack, taking advantage of its limited moveset.

But just as I thought I had the upper hand, my opponent pulled out all the stops. They used Infestation, dealing significant damage to both our Pokémon. I watched in horror as my Pidgey's HP dwindled, and I knew that I had to think fast if I wanted to turn the tide of battle. My opponent was not willing to back down, however, and continued to use Infestation, leaving me with little choice but to resort to using my last remaining potion.

As we entered the pavilion area, I received a surprise phone call from an unknown number - Area Code 205. The person on the other end hung up immediately, leaving me feeling frustrated and confused. "Hello?" they asked, only to be met with silence once again.

Despite the unexpected interruption, I was determined to continue my battle. My opponent handed me a Pokémon that supposedly bested Battalion's team, but I couldn't quite remember its name - it was either Best Queen or Combi. I decided to take a chance and try to super evolve it into something more powerful. But to my dismay, the attempt only resulted in minor damage.

We continued on our way, affected by the infestation that had already taken hold of one of our Pokémon. Our only remaining move left was used once again, leaving us with little defense against our opponent's next attack. "Oh no," I exclaimed, "you've gone too far!"

Just as we thought all hope was lost, my opponent made a surprise move and switched out their Pidgey for... another Pidgey! It seemed like they were trying to wear me down with sheer repetition rather than actually dealing significant damage.

As the battle drew to a close, I realized that I had forgotten to bring some 2-liter bottles of water for dinner. My opponent, on the other hand, was refreshingly focused and determined to emerge victorious. We fought on, our Pokémon taking their final hits as we struggled to find the energy to continue.

But in the end, it was my opponent who emerged victorious - having used an Empogi that left both our Pokémon reeling. I couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment and frustration as I watched my Pidgey succumb to its opponents' relentless assault. It had been a grueling battle, but one that had taught me valuable lessons about the art of Pokémon battling.

And so, with a sigh of defeat, I admitted that "you guys" - referring to my opponent and their Pokémon - had "shown you who know how to play." But don't worry; I'll be back, stronger and wiser for the experience. The badge on my Pidgey's shoulder may have been lost, but so too was any doubt about my own abilities as a trainer.

As we parted ways, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the unexpected turn of events that had unfolded during our battle. My opponent, it seemed, was just as frustrated and exhausted by the end of the fight as I was. We exchanged words of encouragement - or rather, lighthearted jabs about who would be the first to surrender.

The after-match talk included a few choice words, but ultimately, we both agreed that we'd made some memories - and perhaps even a few enemies along the way. The world of Pokémon battling is full of surprises, twists, and turns, but one thing's for sure: when you're on a Nuzlocke run, every battle counts, and victory (or defeat) can be won with sheer determination and perseverance.

And that brings us to our conclusion - or rather, the end of this particular battle. I hope you've enjoyed watching me stumble through my Nuzlocke adventure, and I'll see you all in the next episode when we face off against... well, who knows what?

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello everyone my name is eposvox and welcome back to the pokemon x nuzlocke run yeah i really really appreciate everybody's support on this series so far it's been absolutely fantastic last episode we started establishing rules for the series and we're actually setting them in stone right now this episode we will not be using xp share we will not be using a variety of things we will not be using the xp chip the xp share we will not be using torchic we will be attempting to get as many just you know kayla's pokemon as possible and then what was the other one oh instead of whenever a pokemon faints instead of releasing it into the wild as if it dies we wonder trade it and then whatever we get from the wonder trade we keep as like a souvenir and at the end we can collect them and use them and send them wherever but yeah so an interesting set of rules there that i think will benefit the series and make it pretty unique and interesting i'm gonna go ahead and get me there we go the psych the cap from the red from the guy in the series and then we're gonna get and we're not gonna be able to afford that actually uh i guess we'll switch back to that change doing a little character customization here yeah yeah it's a bit better i think no no and then it was suggested yeah i'll buy it that's fine okay now we have no money but we'll earn money all right it was suggested that we go back and try to recapture or you know capture another pokemon other than dunsparce i will replace dunsparce as soon as i get a kayla's pokemon to do so however i think it's best that i just hold on to it now and not repeat capture from different areas so just pointing that out all right let's see is there anybody we needed to battle and cut to get to their battle view okay looks like we're pretty good awesome there's one guy down here oh yeah we didn't buy everybody hey my pokemon and i are studying want to join us here i will kick you a booty all right oh that was a girl oops i thought that was a guy that's why i did a guy voice okay why was that hard to say i do not know all right scotty let's use all right you don't have any moves stun sport i'm so not used to having low level pokemon again i've spent so long in my pokemon y team that i'm just not used to having crappy pokemon again not going to be fun here and i'm at the little sunsport now we're going to tackle them fight tackle let's go also something interesting is trying to go from the pokemon x and y just new really really fancy 3d graphics and stuff and go back to a 2d pokemon game like fire red for example because i went back to play a little bit of pokemon pokemon and it was just so weird and it felt like it went so slow compared to pokemon x and y because i'm just used to crazy dynamic 3d graphics and sprinting and roller skating and biking and all this crazy stuff that isn't fully there and bogey mmo and the difference i did not expect there to be that big of a difference but the difference was crazy and actually what i may do unless it's something that i specifically want from from other generations i may actually wonder trade our non when i when i switch them out i want i may wonder trade our non calos pokemon as well just to see what we end up with i did see a screenshot on reddit where somebody playing pokemon y wonder traded and got azir nast zarinas from someone in japan that was interesting i don't know how they manage that super potion i don't even know that i went down here in my why let's play i'll have to remember that if anybody who's watching that watch that and remembers let me know if i didn't go back down there when i get fly i'll have to go back down there because that's crazy oh look another duns bars no problemo get our level grinding skills on here string shot oh wait it's gonna be a rock type i'm not gonna be able to do a damn thing roll out crap yeah yeah yeah okay this is all right all right bruh frogs should be good roadmaster as someone suggested i name him it's a pretty good name for feroki i may actually if i can find a name raider i may name the frokey i got in y promaster because i got a level one why bro froggy okay all right um what are we gonna do here if you do have suggestions for nicknames for pokemon in this series uh put them in the comment section below and if they're ones i haven't named or that i don't like the name i chose for them when we do reach a name raider i will change the nicknames i will write down any significant ones i noticed in the comments as we go and once i do get to a point where i can change nicknames then i will come back to that list or i will come back to the comments in the videos and see which ones i want to do and we have basically no choice but to fight this guy now that sucks i kind of needed to heal but whatever the best way to learn about a move is to have your pokemon use it really oh god he's got three pokemon oh and sage oh this is not gonna go well i'm already feeling not happy about this okay we're gonna already just kind of pull out a potion here i don't care what you say i do not want to lose pokemon i don't want to lose kayla's pokemon i think it'd be kind i'd i'd be okay with losing kanto johto but yeah that didn't do anything come at me alright stunsport just add that little oh it doesn't affect him what why is that how does it not affect him i wanna what what i don't understand okay whatever that's fine all right i i cannot i complained about this before but i absolutely cannot stand this play nice move it doesn't necessarily make things you know more difficult in battle or anything although clearly i'm not doing a whole lot of damage it's just annoying as to sit through and look at it like look why why and they just keep using it and using it and it lowers my attack and then i can't do hardly any damage and he still has three pokemon that i have to get through after all that let's try pidgey out here i know it's not a cave those pokemon boohoo but we gotta do what we gotta do okay and of course as soon as i pull it out it play nice but whatever of course we don't have a bird type move yet damn it nope oh we did have higher attack but over there awesome okay level up and see here and i believe that's the fire type so i'll switch to frags again we're not gonna do too bad here uh if he just has the pan pokemon then this isn't gonna be too too bad of course it's the fire one because pan four is the water one i'm an idiot okay moving on are they not like damaged by moves of their type is that like a pan-seared pan sage van poor thing or what and i'm still really thrown off by that we'll switch back to scotty for panpour actually just to see what happens tackle the heck out of it i'm really surprised scotty hasn't leveled up by now i don't know what level it levels up at but i'm so used to the little worm pokemon evolving at like level six and level 10 or something i'm sure that's not the right levels for weedle and caterpie and stuff like that and wormpole but that's what i'm used to you know that you know by level 10 you basically have a third evolution i'm already at level 8 and it hasn't even evolved i think it only has one evolution or at least one that was announced originally but so that may make it like level 20 or something crazy do you all that i'm gonna say it's really interesting playing through game especially for youtube where all the information for the game is not actually out there yet that's kind of new for me apologies for my sister in the background there already yeah yeah we defeated school boy britain brighton i don't know why okay anyway all righty i love how they only jean dobson so far skinny jeans that's just weird let's heal up bierno quit staring at me oh yeah i forgot this guy gives you a great ball so we got our first great ball so that will actually really really help us get catch pokemon because catching pokemon is a bit different than i don't know to me it feels it just feels a bit different than in previous pokemon games and it's a little bit more difficult to be honest and so having better balls having better balls yes actually is a lot better for catching pokemon alright is that the gym no that's the trainer school i don't care about that we may not be getting to the gym yet i don't even remember god okay i'm an idiot hello who are you oh you are aren't you you're one of the kids that got a pokemon from augustine sycamore right that's got a bug you got there looks pretty happy it must be a good trainer in that case get over to the pokemon gym my sister will be glad glad to meet you okay sure whoa i didn't know about this hello we found a super potion i didn't get that in my pokemon let's play either look at that we're finding all sorts of stuff i don't know that we're quite up to the level challenge of the gym yet though although it doesn't look like we can grind up levels at the moment that well without doing wild battles either but it's a it's it's a nuzlocke run let's give it some challenge hey stranger isn't cruising around on your roller skates the best thing ever we don't have any roller skates let's see if we can beat her for a pokemon battle oh god this could be a very terrible terrible terrible terrible idea uh oh she only has one pokemon there's a zigzag oh yeah she has a zigzagoon okay that's not too bad i'm not that worried about a zig zagoon or should i be that's that's the thing with these games now i want to see if you all would be interested in later on a an egg lock run that's apparently a nuzlocke run or a similar style run that you do with eggs given to you by subscribers i part of me wants to you know wants to do this in pokemon x and y or you know pokemon x i guess because that would give you know that it'd be the newer game and y'all could just add me with your friend codes and give me the eggs but at the same time i'd be doing two lock runs of pokemon x you know after this one i'd be doing an egg lock and that might get kind of stale so i may do a romhack one but that would require you all to have or to have pokemon in the roms and stuff so i'm i'm i still haven't fully laid out the details for what i think about that but i do want to try one of those newer ones because egg lock sounds pretty cool but again requires you all to have eggs and that really limits me to ones that i can actually receive eggs on too so i don't know a whole lot about it so we'll have to see roll out i swear every i'm just gonna have a pokemon with rollout in every game that i play wow that zig zagoon is like a tank when i have really low level pokemon jesus okay well that was new it showed the it showed the rock ball like moving away from dunsparce and dunsparce staying there i thought when quilla didn't use uses rollout like yeah see dunsparce pops back up i don't remember that happening with krillin i wonder if that's supposed to happen i don't know oh almost a level up we beat you give this give us give us some roller skates please please pretty please you might even be stronger than a gym leader all right here you go one spiffy pair of roller skates i just happen to have them around alrighty thank you yep yep we use the circle pad that's all we gotta do thank you thank you much now we i forgot is she actually the gym leader with the lucario is she just another roller skater that happens to give us skates i don't know all right we're gonna heal up here still don't like the circle bed that much for navigation but that is okay nothing wrong with that all right and what do we see here scotty is actually a higher level than duncy on the same level as pidgey so i kind of need to i'm going to do some off camera grinding real quick to get some pokemon up and then we're going to go on and take on the gym battle in this episode and if you're wondering why it's moving so much faster than my let's play that's because i'm stopping and reading and doing everything for the let's play so that you get the full experience with this i've already done that so i'm just trying to you know beat the game without dying i ran into a pikachu outside of that forest and it is the female pikachu i believe i think that no it's the male pikachu it's it's male 1 because it okay the male doesn't have the notch out of the tail okay but yeah right into a pikachu still training up my levels almost there i'm not gonna get too over leveled i'm gonna take a risk and at least fight the first gym trainer that way we get because you're gonna get a decent amount of xp here's the thundershock okay you're gonna get a decent amount of xp from the trainers themselves so i don't wanna i don't know i don't wanna build up too much and then just kind of blow through them but at the same time i don't wanna necessarily risk dying either he's using tail whip a lot so let's hit it with a stun again it doesn't affect it what is this new thing can someone please tell me i've never heard of this why wouldn't stun sport effect pikachu again keep in mind that i am completely out of the picture when it comes to generation five so i don't know all right let's swap to although this may be bad we're gonna swap to dunsey because he just used like three tail whips in a row and could probably kill me in one hit if once he attacks yep knew that was coming but not be very effective perfect rage is not what i wanted to use there but i thought that was gonna be a tackle oh god okay that works too awesome level seven done spice what up and you learn spite all right level nine scotty oh yeah i'm gonna get oh here we go i knew this moment was coming scotty is evolving that superstar interesting so we evolved into the graffiti pokemon super a graffiti confetti i would mix those words up for some reason oh and learn protect sweet go super go super it's your birthday it's your birthday technically because it's the first time it's existed my guess awesome okay all right i'm going to make an incredibly dumb decision but since my lead pokemon is a pidgey which is a flying type and it does no gus now i'm going to take on one of the gym trainers it's mainly a bug type gym so ideally i should be okay to start out we're just we're kind of going to see what happens and go with it okay we're just gonna see we're gonna experiment because fighting against level three wild pokemon is not very enjoyable and we're at that stage where it's really awkward to grind levels i didn't notice the like venomoths on the floor before that's pretty cool and beautiful what's the hustle little crossover welcome to san alum city gym so your future so future champ it'll be your first gym battle huh are you thrilled are you pumped you should be no worries here you've got pokemon on your side they're gonna be doing the battles am i right or am i right you're right good sir all right bug tech come on let's go slide down the pole yeah yeah we begin this crazy ass mess again alrighty for whatever reason i just got afraid that i'd encounter wild pokemon i'm not smart okay here we go youngster david ladybug lady is a lady all right done sparse use roll out helmet punch well okay never mind that's a critical hit oh wait okay i think that was gonna be a fighting move and i was already screwed oh damn because it's part flying look at that yeah you can try to confuse me you don't know me people have continuously ex like suggested or just assumed i would take advantage of pokemon of me and super training still not fully decided on that as i have not actually experimented with it a whole lot but it's something i will consider and that will that people suggested that as a way of eliminating the need for xp share on to the next gym trainer here we go and i'm not going the right way no no make the jump jump oh my god damn it i hate this puzzle oh oh no we're going the right way what am i talking about yeah yeah hey you i'm gonna kick your butt i know how to make bug pokemon evolve quickly it's about loving them up you fool bad for the inner butts all right let's try roll out again it works so well for his last time we haven't even had to rely on pidgey just yet that is super effective but it did not do much at all all right let's hit it again duncey you can do it i believe in you i believe in you yeah use your tackle attack you can't handle me no yeah roll out and supers down for the count level up level eight come at me bro man ski almost level nine damn wow you evolved quickly too uh not yet well super evolved but that's the only one so far all right let's see let's use a potion since we got a few on duncy we're not even going to go back to the pokemon center this gym has been a blast no it hasn't been a blast this gym is no problem i don't know what i'm saying it this we're blasting through this gym we're blessing off again such weak prey you've been caught right up in my spider web or have i or is this exactly where i want to be maybe not lash charlotte ready let's swap out to pudgy here machu patrick patrick patrick the funny part is which is still this is still going to happen in the nuzlocke like it did the let's play the first badge allows all pokemon up to level 30 to obey you and the first badge is a level 10 battle okay okay it's fine it it'll be fine it'll be fine gust we're gonna gust it'll be okay it'll be okay i don't think we have any antidotes yet oh it's fun it's fun it's totally fine we're gonna be okay we're gonna be fine just fine come on there we go it's poisoned why would you poison me i did not actually take that into consideration about the bug type gym leaders dunsey level nine okay it we need budgie about sending comb nope we gotta keep battling it what do what do what do it's a female combi that that's what the pink triangle means i know that this time guys sorry oh it used gust oh god no no no pudgy puddy hang in there pudgy pudgy come on let us restore we only gotta why do we only have a paralyzed heel who the uses paralyzed heels not me don't yeah yeah yeah go go go all the heels how does it keep using gusts you you're copying me hit quit bubbling budgie fight it off you can do better something gust of course it used to gust used used gus kill it kill it kill it murder it doesn't deserve you damn it no that's fine it's fine it's fine it's okay that's enough we can swap we're good frags take it from here you're not poisoned we lose our starter we're really screwed but but this is okay we're gonna be okay it's fine okay it's okay come on come on here's your ghost not gonna do much come on come on all right all right all right quick attack just kill it just kill it now i can't take anymore okay don't be down for the count frags level 11. what up one budgie grew to level 11. also what up fun lass what a blast i just swear if it dives from poison on my way to the pokemon center i'm going to cry i'm just going to cry because that's what i was going to use to help beat the gym leader does it not is there no poison damage i thought i noticed that before but i wasn't sure i don't know how do i get back it no go damn it there okay wait can we get back that way oh no you're not serious are we just gonna have to tough it out is there not a way out of here you okay okay this is how you're gonna play your game you this is how you're gonna play pokemon this is how you're gonna play pokemon then this is how i'm going to play pokemon you better watch out because i am coming for you god damn i'm coming for you okay screw this another potion another potion yes budgie go we're gonna we're just gonna destroy her damn it we're gonna save too just to be safe yeah yeah yeah go she could at least like heal my pokemon first that determined expression that glint in your eye that says you're up for the challenge it's fantastic just fantastic is this your first time challenging akina gym again fantastic whether it's tears of frustration or that follow a loss or the blossoming joy that comes with victory they're both great subjects for my camera fantastic it'll just be fantastic now come at me my lens is always focused on victory i won't let anything grow in this shot snap versus voila dude all right we got a sur skid to start not gonna be too hot to face a cersket with the duns bars but we can probably fight it with brokey tech moves yeah we're good okay show her how it's done i'm just gonna try i guess since i decided this gym would be easy if i had pudgy it just decides hey you don't really get to use pudgy that much and me over but that's okay that's how you like i said if that's how you want to play pokemon i'm going to play pokemon this way quick attack yeah you didn't like that did you it didn't do a whole lot but you okay you did like it because you're just going to copy it i see your tricks i know your tricks you're going to use quick attack again you think this will defeat me but it will not i don't know why i am russian now but it is not helping me defeat you no no no it is not use pound and it's going to keep using the quick attack and it's actually getting effective okay all right quick attack first use another water sport for the helmet quit using your damn quick attack i i need i need to use a potion now just because i hate using them so much i'm already almost i'm already out i need to use it now though because while i could probably have defeated sur skip without losing more hp i wouldn't have been able to handle whatever else pokemon if i chose to keep it out and she used the potion you damn it quick attack we will rip her head off god damn it we really just going to quick attack back and forth that's because search gets useless lick it lick the bug yeah critical hit yeah hair loss use bubble oh you want to use bubble you want to use bubble moves i can bubble right back how about that you baboon and mine does a little bit of damage aha water sport just wasting your moves do i look like a fire type pokemon to you nope that's cause i'm blue da ba dee da ba dai da ba dee i just dropped my stylus and managed to accidentally catch it with my other hand i am very coordinated i'm back down to where uh-huh i'm back down in health where i thought i was when i thought i'd beat it the first time kill it wipe the floor with it

said was pretty good and the only reason to get combi i believe this is no this isn't that was best queen i don't know what the hell i'm talking about with these pokemon is pavilion what super evolves into yes probably it is so i'm gonna have one of these things and it's gonna be pretty cool and that did not do much at all we're gonna go a little bit more oh no because we're affected by that too we

to the pokemon x nuzlocke run yeah i really really appreciate everybody's support on this series so far it's been absolutely fantastic last episode we started establishing rules for the series and we're actually setting them in stone right now this episode we will not be using xp share we will not be using a variety of things we will not be using the xp chip the xp share we will not be using torchic we will be attempting to get as many just you know kayla's pokemon as possible and then what was the other one oh instead of whenever a pokemon faints instead of releasing it into the wild as if it dies we wonder trade it and then whatever we get from the wonder trade we keep as like a souvenir and at the end we can collect them and use them and send them wherever but yeah so an interesting set of rules there that i think will benefit the series and make it pretty unique and interesting i'm gonna go ahead and get me there we go the psych the cap from the red from the guy in the series and then we're gonna get and we're not gonna be able to afford that actually uh i guess we'll switch back to that change doing a little character customization here yeah yeah it's a bit better i think no no and then it was suggested yeah i'll buy it that's fine okay now we have no money but we'll earn money all right it was suggested that we go back and try to recapture or you know capture another pokemon other than dunsparce i will replace dunsparce as soon as i get a kayla's pokemon to do so however i think it's best that i just hold on to it now and not repeat capture from different areas so just pointing that out all right let's see is there anybody we needed to battle and cut to get to their battle view okay looks like we're pretty good awesome there's one guy down here oh yeah we didn't buy everybody hey my pokemon and i are studying want to join us here i will kick you a booty all right oh that was a girl oops i thought that was a guy that's why i did a guy voice okay why was that hard to say i do not know all right scotty let's use all right you don't have any moves stun sport i'm so not used to having low level pokemon again i've spent so long in my pokemon y team that i'm just not used to having crappy pokemon again not going to be fun here and i'm at the little sunsport now we're going to tackle them fight tackle let's go also something interesting is trying to go from the pokemon x and y just new really really fancy 3d graphics and stuff and go back to a 2d pokemon game like fire red for example because i went back to play a little bit of pokemon pokemon and it was just so weird and it felt like it went so slow compared to pokemon x and y because i'm just used to crazy dynamic 3d graphics and sprinting and roller skating and biking and all this crazy stuff that isn't fully there and bogey mmo and the difference i did not expect there to be that big of a difference but the difference was crazy and actually what i may do unless it's something that i specifically want from from other generations i may actually wonder trade our non when i when i switch them out i want i may wonder trade our non calos pokemon as well just to see what we end up with i did see a screenshot on reddit where somebody playing pokemon y wonder traded and got azir nast zarinas from someone in japan that was interesting i don't know how they manage that super potion i don't even know that i went down here in my why let's play i'll have to remember that if anybody who's watching that watch that and remembers let me know if i didn't go back down there when i get fly i'll have to go back down there because that's crazy oh look another duns bars no problemo get our level grinding skills on here string shot oh wait it's gonna be a rock type i'm not gonna be able to do a damn thing roll out crap yeah yeah yeah okay this is all right all right bruh frogs should be good roadmaster as someone suggested i name him it's a pretty good name for feroki i may actually if i can find a name raider i may name the frokey i got in y promaster because i got a level one why bro froggy okay all right um what are we gonna do here if you do have suggestions for nicknames for pokemon in this series uh put them in the comment section below and if they're ones i haven't named or that i don't like the name i chose for them when we do reach a name raider i will change the nicknames i will write down any significant ones i noticed in the comments as we go and once i do get to a point where i can change nicknames then i will come back to that list or i will come back to the comments in the videos and see which ones i want to do and we have basically no choice but to fight this guy now that sucks i kind of needed to heal but whatever the best way to learn about a move is to have your pokemon use it really oh god he's got three pokemon oh and sage oh this is not gonna go well i'm already feeling not happy about this okay we're gonna already just kind of pull out a potion here i don't care what you say i do not want to lose pokemon i don't want to lose kayla's pokemon i think it'd be kind i'd i'd be okay with losing kanto johto but yeah that didn't do anything come at me alright stunsport just add that little oh it doesn't affect him what why is that how does it not affect him i wanna what what i don't understand okay whatever that's fine all right i i cannot i complained about this before but i absolutely cannot stand this play nice move it doesn't necessarily make things you know more difficult in battle or anything although clearly i'm not doing a whole lot of damage it's just annoying as to sit through and look at it like look why why and they just keep using it and using it and it lowers my attack and then i can't do hardly any damage and he still has three pokemon that i have to get through after all that let's try pidgey out here i know it's not a cave those pokemon boohoo but we gotta do what we gotta do okay and of course as soon as i pull it out it play nice but whatever of course we don't have a bird type move yet damn it nope oh we did have higher attack but over there awesome okay level up and see here and i believe that's the fire type so i'll switch to frags again we're not gonna do too bad here uh if he just has the pan pokemon then this isn't gonna be too too bad of course it's the fire one because pan four is the water one i'm an idiot okay moving on are they not like damaged by moves of their type is that like a pan-seared pan sage van poor thing or what and i'm still really thrown off by that we'll switch back to scotty for panpour actually just to see what happens tackle the heck out of it i'm really surprised scotty hasn't leveled up by now i don't know what level it levels up at but i'm so used to the little worm pokemon evolving at like level six and level 10 or something i'm sure that's not the right levels for weedle and caterpie and stuff like that and wormpole but that's what i'm used to you know that you know by level 10 you basically have a third evolution i'm already at level 8 and it hasn't even evolved i think it only has one evolution or at least one that was announced originally but so that may make it like level 20 or something crazy do you all that i'm gonna say it's really interesting playing through game especially for youtube where all the information for the game is not actually out there yet that's kind of new for me apologies for my sister in the background there already yeah yeah we defeated school boy britain brighton i don't know why okay anyway all righty i love how they only jean dobson so far skinny jeans that's just weird let's heal up bierno quit staring at me oh yeah i forgot this guy gives you a great ball so we got our first great ball so that will actually really really help us get catch pokemon because catching pokemon is a bit different than i don't know to me it feels it just feels a bit different than in previous pokemon games and it's a little bit more difficult to be honest and so having better balls having better balls yes actually is a lot better for catching pokemon alright is that the gym no that's the trainer school i don't care about that we may not be getting to the gym yet i don't even remember god okay i'm an idiot hello who are you oh you are aren't you you're one of the kids that got a pokemon from augustine sycamore right that's got a bug you got there looks pretty happy it must be a good trainer in that case get over to the pokemon gym my sister will be glad glad to meet you okay sure whoa i didn't know about this hello we found a super potion i didn't get that in my pokemon let's play either look at that we're finding all sorts of stuff i don't know that we're quite up to the level challenge of the gym yet though although it doesn't look like we can grind up levels at the moment that well without doing wild battles either but it's a it's it's a nuzlocke run let's give it some challenge hey stranger isn't cruising around on your roller skates the best thing ever we don't have any roller skates let's see if we can beat her for a pokemon battle oh god this could be a very terrible terrible terrible terrible idea uh oh she only has one pokemon there's a zigzag oh yeah she has a zigzagoon okay that's not too bad i'm not that worried about a zig zagoon or should i be that's that's the thing with these games now i want to see if you all would be interested in later on a an egg lock run that's apparently a nuzlocke run or a similar style run that you do with eggs given to you by subscribers i part of me wants to you know wants to do this in pokemon x and y or you know pokemon x i guess because that would give you know that it'd be the newer game and y'all could just add me with your friend codes and give me the eggs but at the same time i'd be doing two lock runs of pokemon x you know after this one i'd be doing an egg lock and that might get kind of stale so i may do a romhack one but that would require you all to have or to have pokemon in the roms and stuff so i'm i'm i still haven't fully laid out the details for what i think about that but i do want to try one of those newer ones because egg lock sounds pretty cool but again requires you all to have eggs and that really limits me to ones that i can actually receive eggs on too so i don't know a whole lot about it so we'll have to see roll out i swear every i'm just gonna have a pokemon with rollout in every game that i play wow that zig zagoon is like a tank when i have really low level pokemon jesus okay well that was new it showed the it showed the rock ball like moving away from dunsparce and dunsparce staying there i thought when quilla didn't use uses rollout like yeah see dunsparce pops back up i don't remember that happening with krillin i wonder if that's supposed to happen i don't know oh almost a level up we beat you give this give us give us some roller skates please please pretty please you might even be stronger than a gym leader all right here you go one spiffy pair of roller skates i just happen to have them around alrighty thank you yep yep we use the circle pad that's all we gotta do thank you thank you much now we i forgot is she actually the gym leader with the lucario is she just another roller skater that happens to give us skates i don't know all right we're gonna heal up here still don't like the circle bed that much for navigation but that is okay nothing wrong with that all right and what do we see here scotty is actually a higher level than duncy on the same level as pidgey so i kind of need to i'm going to do some off camera grinding real quick to get some pokemon up and then we're going to go on and take on the gym battle in this episode and if you're wondering why it's moving so much faster than my let's play that's because i'm stopping and reading and doing everything for the let's play so that you get the full experience with this i've already done that so i'm just trying to you know beat the game without dying i ran into a pikachu outside of that forest and it is the female pikachu i believe i think that no it's the male pikachu it's it's male 1 because it okay the male doesn't have the notch out of the tail okay but yeah right into a pikachu still training up my levels almost there i'm not gonna get too over leveled i'm gonna take a risk and at least fight the first gym trainer that way we get because you're gonna get a decent amount of xp here's the thundershock okay you're gonna get a decent amount of xp from the trainers themselves so i don't wanna i don't know i don't wanna build up too much and then just kind of blow through them but at the same time i don't wanna necessarily risk dying either he's using tail whip a lot so let's hit it with a stun again it doesn't affect it what is this new thing can someone please tell me i've never heard of this why wouldn't stun sport effect pikachu again keep in mind that i am completely out of the picture when it comes to generation five so i don't know all right let's swap to although this may be bad we're gonna swap to dunsey because he just used like three tail whips in a row and could probably kill me in one hit if once he attacks yep knew that was coming but not be very effective perfect rage is not what i wanted to use there but i thought that was gonna be a tackle oh god okay that works too awesome level seven done spice what up and you learn spite all right level nine scotty oh yeah i'm gonna get oh here we go i knew this moment was coming scotty is evolving that superstar interesting so we evolved into the graffiti pokemon super a graffiti confetti i would mix those words up for some reason oh and learn protect sweet go super go super it's your birthday it's your birthday technically because it's the first time it's existed my guess awesome okay all right i'm going to make an incredibly dumb decision but since my lead pokemon is a pidgey which is a flying type and it does no gus now i'm going to take on one of the gym trainers it's mainly a bug type gym so ideally i should be okay to start out we're just we're kind of going to see what happens and go with it okay we're just gonna see we're gonna experiment because fighting against level three wild pokemon is not very enjoyable and we're at that stage where it's really awkward to grind levels i didn't notice the like venomoths on the floor before that's pretty cool and beautiful what's the hustle little crossover welcome to san alum city gym so your future so future champ it'll be your first gym battle huh are you thrilled are you pumped you should be no worries here you've got pokemon on your side they're gonna be doing the battles am i right or am i right you're right good sir all right bug tech come on let's go slide down the pole yeah yeah we begin this crazy ass mess again alrighty for whatever reason i just got afraid that i'd encounter wild pokemon i'm not smart okay here we go youngster david ladybug lady is a lady all right done sparse use roll out helmet punch well okay never mind that's a critical hit oh wait okay i think that was gonna be a fighting move and i was already screwed oh damn because it's part flying look at that yeah you can try to confuse me you don't know me people have continuously ex like suggested or just assumed i would take advantage of pokemon of me and super training still not fully decided on that as i have not actually experimented with it a whole lot but it's something i will consider and that will that people suggested that as a way of eliminating the need for xp share on to the next gym trainer here we go and i'm not going the right way no no make the jump jump oh my god damn it i hate this puzzle oh oh no we're going the right way what am i talking about yeah yeah hey you i'm gonna kick your butt i know how to make bug pokemon evolve quickly it's about loving them up you fool bad for the inner butts all right let's try roll out again it works so well for his last time we haven't even had to rely on pidgey just yet that is super effective but it did not do much at all all right let's hit it again duncey you can do it i believe in you i believe in you yeah use your tackle attack you can't handle me no yeah roll out and supers down for the count level up level eight come at me bro man ski almost level nine damn wow you evolved quickly too uh not yet well super evolved but that's the only one so far all right let's see let's use a potion since we got a few on duncy we're not even going to go back to the pokemon center this gym has been a blast no it hasn't been a blast this gym is no problem i don't know what i'm saying it this we're blasting through this gym we're blessing off again such weak prey you've been caught right up in my spider web or have i or is this exactly where i want to be maybe not lash charlotte ready let's swap out to pudgy here machu patrick patrick patrick the funny part is which is still this is still going to happen in the nuzlocke like it did the let's play the first badge allows all pokemon up to level 30 to obey you and the first badge is a level 10 battle okay okay it's fine it it'll be fine it'll be fine gust we're gonna gust it'll be okay it'll be okay i don't think we have any antidotes yet oh it's fun it's fun it's totally fine we're gonna be okay we're gonna be fine just fine come on there we go it's poisoned why would you poison me i did not actually take that into consideration about the bug type gym leaders dunsey level nine okay it we need budgie about sending comb nope we gotta keep battling it what do what do what do it's a female combi that that's what the pink triangle means i know that this time guys sorry oh it used gust oh god no no no pudgy puddy hang in there pudgy pudgy come on let us restore we only gotta why do we only have a paralyzed heel who the uses paralyzed heels not me don't yeah yeah yeah go go go all the heels how does it keep using gusts you you're copying me hit quit bubbling budgie fight it off you can do better something gust of course it used to gust used used gus kill it kill it kill it murder it doesn't deserve you damn it no that's fine it's fine it's fine it's okay that's enough we can swap we're good frags take it from here you're not poisoned we lose our starter we're really screwed but but this is okay we're gonna be okay it's fine okay it's okay come on come on here's your ghost not gonna do much come on come on all right all right all right quick attack just kill it just kill it now i can't take anymore okay don't be down for the count frags level 11. what up one budgie grew to level 11. also what up fun lass what a blast i just swear if it dives from poison on my way to the pokemon center i'm going to cry i'm just going to cry because that's what i was going to use to help beat the gym leader does it not is there no poison damage i thought i noticed that before but i wasn't sure i don't know how do i get back it no go damn it there okay wait can we get back that way oh no you're not serious are we just gonna have to tough it out is there not a way out of here you okay okay this is how you're gonna play your game you this is how you're gonna play pokemon this is how you're gonna play pokemon then this is how i'm going to play pokemon you better watch out because i am coming for you god damn i'm coming for you okay screw this another potion another potion yes budgie go we're gonna we're just gonna destroy her damn it we're gonna save too just to be safe yeah yeah yeah go she could at least like heal my pokemon first that determined expression that glint in your eye that says you're up for the challenge it's fantastic just fantastic is this your first time challenging akina gym again fantastic whether it's tears of frustration or that follow a loss or the blossoming joy that comes with victory they're both great subjects for my camera fantastic it'll just be fantastic now come at me my lens is always focused on victory i won't let anything grow in this shot snap versus voila dude all right we got a sur skid to start not gonna be too hot to face a cersket with the duns bars but we can probably fight it with brokey tech moves yeah we're good okay show her how it's done i'm just gonna try i guess since i decided this gym would be easy if i had pudgy it just decides hey you don't really get to use pudgy that much and me over but that's okay that's how you like i said if that's how you want to play pokemon i'm going to play pokemon this way quick attack yeah you didn't like that did you it didn't do a whole lot but you okay you did like it because you're just going to copy it i see your tricks i know your tricks you're going to use quick attack again you think this will defeat me but it will not i don't know why i am russian now but it is not helping me defeat you no no no it is not use pound and it's going to keep using the quick attack and it's actually getting effective okay all right quick attack first use another water sport for the helmet quit using your damn quick attack i i need i need to use a potion now just because i hate using them so much i'm already almost i'm already out i need to use it now though because while i could probably have defeated sur skip without losing more hp i wouldn't have been able to handle whatever else pokemon if i chose to keep it out and she used the potion you damn it quick attack we will rip her head off god damn it we really just going to quick attack back and forth that's because search gets useless lick it lick the bug yeah critical hit yeah hair loss use bubble oh you want to use bubble you want to use bubble moves i can bubble right back how about that you baboon and mine does a little bit of damage aha water sport just wasting your moves do i look like a fire type pokemon to you nope that's cause i'm blue da ba dee da ba dai da ba dee i just dropped my stylus and managed to accidentally catch it with my other hand i am very coordinated i'm back down to where uh-huh i'm back down in health where i thought i was when i thought i'd beat it the first time kill it wipe the floor with it step on it with a big shoe there you go yeah you're dead 115 xp points oh wow all right pavilion i just got a phone call from uh area code 205. i've no idea who that is and they hung up as soon as i answered so clearly they did not want to talk to me hate it when that happened i'm like hello who with this and they like click i don't know all right pavilion so this is a pokemon that best battalion said was pretty good and the only reason to get combi i believe this is no this isn't that was best queen i don't know what the hell i'm talking about with these pokemon is pavilion what super evolves into yes probably it is so i'm gonna have one of these things and it's gonna be pretty cool and that did not do much at all we're gonna go a little bit more oh no because we're affected by that too we only got one move left in us if we're lucky you're gonna use it again no you're a i better be a crit nope oh god okay oh okay that's enough that's enough i i give let's go don't see oh my god uh pidgey can't be switched out what oh you've gone too far no i'm really out of potions after this all right
