Go watch the exclusive directors commentary of my Emerald Kaizo video over at

pChal, no one cares... the only thing that we want to know is: Do you gonna do a *Palworld* only humans -enslaved- CAPTURED, nuzlock yes or no?
@@RonneyCamposBRUH
@@RonneyCamposdont speak for everybody. Personally, Im interested in hearing his commentary on old runs and have no care for whether or not he does a run of Palworld
So funny that you'd choose now to start doing this, I haven't watched your content for months and in the past 2-3 days I've been watching several hours of it (including stuff I've already watched) and got a big surprise when the pic and name changed lol
@@tree3214personally no one cares, palworld2themoon lezzz gooooo (just in case it wasn't obvious I'm just Joshing, I enjoy the commentary as well but would like to see a palworld run)
Hearing Jan just drop that beginning saying “I’m definitely no longer the best nuzlocker in the world” is that feeling you get if you were to see your dad get beat up 😭
hit me like a freight train ToT
Be happy that Jan now has equals, and has spearheaded the community for so long! He deserves the respect of all those who come after him
My feeling would be different lol
Honestly him calling himself the best nuzlocker in the world was such a meme in the community. It's so refreshing to hear him come out and say it in a video. Still the Nuzlocke goat though for the way he's grown the scene!
I mean he is the dad of nuzlocke.
Let's go! Excited for the new stuff coming
*points*
Yoooo, RTGame!
Imagine RT can really relate to making that jump to variety content with what a huge success it was for him
The most RT game comment of all comments
Oh hi rumble tumble
One thing I miss about modern CZcams are videos like this. Love just hearing a CZcamsr talk about the hurdles of content creation, and how they are handling things. Best of luck with 2024 man! :)
I'm loving crystal legacy. Hope Jan will make a video on it too.
@@lakibadhikari7930 Would love to see pChal take on Crystal Legacy! It's maybe not as hard as his usual runs but maybe he could add an extra rule or two
smithvlogs that you?
It's not a difficulty hack, so there wouldn't really be any challenge in nuzlocking it. Crystal Kaizo plus is a way better nuzlocke challenge. @@lakibadhikari7930
hi ;) @@noahstephens2477
I appreciate the up-front nature of this vid, it's nice to know where things are going as a fan! Good luck going forward, man, we're all with you.
Recognizing things you need to change about how you approach content is huge for longevity on CZcams and CC in general. I always really enjoyed your streams and am excited to see them return!
Bro i grew up watching your videos holy shit. Thank you for the memories!
Holy shit, a meeting of titans
Had no idea my favorite youtubers watches one of my other favorite youtubers. Love both your guy’s content. ❤️
HI wildcat!!
Yooo wildcat :D I just wanted to let you know that I loved your video in my teens. Your laugh ALWAYS made me laugh. Your vid brought me to tears with laughter! Thank you for making my childhood a little bit brighter :)
"An unwieldy username isnt it" Yes it is Mr. Challenges
You have nice hair
@@Cantbearsed447 down bad man 💀
@@zecomrade82you have a nice hat 👍🏿
Daddy Challenges
@@theschnozzler Aw thank you mate. Fun fact; did you know the dog in my pfp died.
Love the self awareness and willingness to address those issues so openly. You're already on the right track to getting back to where you want to be.
the fact this video is on the trending page is crazy, u deserve all the support and its amazing you’re willing to reflect on your channel in such a way
Love everything about this man, really excited to see this all in action this year!
Me too John cant wait to see what he does next!
Hi John
why is john here
@@localerik Because he's a person that watches youtube?
@@FeenickzVR alr bruh
Not gonna lie bro, I don’t watch your twitch. I only watch your CZcams. Your my favourite Pokémon content creator. You treat your audience like actual adults, make funny jokes and are genuinely talented and give amazing advice that I’ve been using for my nuzlockes.
I totally get being unsatisfied, but just from a random viewer, you’ve been an absolute legend of a CZcamsr, can’t wait to see more this year man
From a filthy Pchal CZcams fan 😂 :)
Same about treating his audience like adults. Sure lots of kids are into Pokemon but plenty of adults are too. MandJTV is a good example of a great channel that I do like watching but some videos I just can't cause it's like watching kids TV.
This comment is it🎉
I don't watch his Twitch either, but the point is that a lot of his CZcams content is edited down and commentated over versions of Twitch streams, so the streams need to exist for the best CZcams content to exist.
FACTSSS
I got into him around 2021-2022, then his videos changed drastically in 2023 and honestly were not my cup of tea.
It really felt like he had success with the alpharad collab and decided to use his video style.
You'll always be probably the world's best nuzlocker in my heart Jan.
2:41 this is literally me, we need to fix this somehow
Booooooca booooooooca
BOOCAAA
Early?
I swear alpha’s rivalry with this man made them both grow so much
True Rivals help each other become better
And Alpharad was undeserved because he is neighter Funny nor has skill
@@slowbro15cope
They just both got more self absorbed somehow
@@slowbro15suddenly dyslexic and mean
Just subscribed to this channel for the first time the other day after deciding I liked it.
"I hate my CZcams channel and it is changing."
"....O-oh, okay..." 😂😂
Unlucky bud. Lol
he's actually gonna be going back to more of his older content primarily focused on nuzlocking, so if you like that you're in luck
His older videos were better anyway, the scripted stuff felt really forced and repetitive.
Should have played around the crit
@@itsOZone it's not like he said the scripted videos are going away. He just needs to make content that caters to his actual niche instead of sponsorship fodder that the viewers and he will tire out on.
Love the character growth arc for you, jan. I dont comment often, and I'm in your livestreams even less, but I really enjoyed your, let's call it pre 2023 content on CZcams. And the fact you are able to self reflect and change things you havent enjoyed, either about your content or self in general, is super admirable and I wish you nothing but the best this year, as well as years to come. Much love ❤
This made me so happy. I really relate to a lot of the feelings and behavior patterns you describe. I’m so excited for what you have planned this year! Looking forward to following your work.
I love your narrated walkthroughs of how you’ve made it through your nuzlockes because I’m not able to watch full streams and it’s great to listen to as a podcast! Just wanted to let you know!
I second this, it's my favorite kind of video on the channel
Yep, antz also does this so it can be enjoyed by people with less free time to watch this kind of several-hours-gameplays.
Absolutely! In general I really enjoy this type of content and I think pChal does it really well!
Second this as well. Partly narrated videos are so nice. You don't have to get in on the other (popular) CZcams trends. I think most of us really appreciate you getting slammed in a Nuzlocke, but I can understand how the funding and sponsorship appeasement can also pull you from that content. I'd say I like your choice. Nuzlocking content is great with all the other hams that get bodied is funny and all, but your deep dive, in depth gameplay sets you apart from most. There's nothing wrong with sticking to your roots. And i commend you choosing quality over quantity.
same
I thought it was weird there was a suspicious lack of actual nuzlocke content last year. Kinda just assumed you were trying to branch out a little more or something. As someone who also really struggles with tight deadlines and timings, I feel your pain Jan. Just do your thing and we'll be here for it!
Hi Jan, congrats on the refresh! It's been so fun to watch you grow since the good old days. I'm excited to see your channel evolve yet again!
Only recently started to watch, but have been binging your stuff since then. Really excited to see how things change!! Already loving the rebrand
Been following since the JaidenAnimations commentary and it’s awesome to see how far you blew up even since then. Glad you’re at a point where you can/want to focus on a more creative side
This is pretty refreshing. CZcamsrs actually recognizing what is going wrong and trying to change it for the better is always great to see! Excited for what comes next!
I mean the alternative is that he cruises through things for a few years until views fall off and he can’t do this as a job anymore. A lot of channels has had that happen to
@@JamienautMark2bobobonga
@@JamienautMark2agree but also props to him for recognizing it and doing something. After all it’s pretty easy to tell ur slipping/putting in less effort but actually doing smt about it is much harder, even if u see the doom in the horizon
Glad you'll be doing more of what you're proud of - as a newer viewer, excited to pop into stream sometimes this year!
Looking forward to your stuff this year, especially pChal daily. Good luck (and have fun!) with everything!
Jan: i'm no longer the best nuzlocker in the world
That phrase got me.
This guy boomed the nuzlocke community saying he was the best. Now he takes a step back to march forward along side other cool creators in the space.
I'll be honest, I haven't been watching PChal as long as others, maybe a year or so, but hearing the change from "I'm probably the best Nuzlocker in the world" to a somber "I'm no longer the best Nuzlocker in the world" really hits hard.
But who is the best Nuzlocker in the world now tho?
@@patrykboduch9458 Joe
@@patrykboduch9458 Probably the guy that beat emerald kaizo deathless?
@@user-de5pt7lk5y haven't watched this video yet, but after seeing a thumbnail I just thought that pChal did it, well, now I get it ;)
I'm not a twitch person, I'm a youtube person. I like the condensed stuff, I don't have it in me to spend five hours looking at nothing because at some point something will happen. And I think this video and you have made me confront the fact that I really like to watch streams condensed into youtube format, and what that implies. I like consuming thousands of hours of nothing condensed into the few moving moments where something is happening, and that isn't reasonable, it really isn't. Just do your thing man, I'll be here anyways. Whether or not you're the best, whether or not a video took hundreds of hours of work to get the footage for.
For I handed on to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures
1 Corinthians 15:3
@@konrad1916Hey man I'm Christian and all but if you're gonna quote the Scripture in an unrelated CZcams video, at least make the quote related.
Also in regards to the original comment, I agree and I think it'll be difficult to accept that such condensed and high quality content will be difficult to produce and it while it sucks to see it reduced, I'm glad Jan is doing what is better for the channel.
Gratz on the rebranding and good for you on setting goals for yourself! Looking forward to what pChal is up to in the future
it was this past year that really made me start watching your videos more. I never really watched in your early days but i feel like you've had a lot of growth and you should be proud and we'll support you all the way!
This is what I wanted to hear from you after observing your channel’s videos for the last whole year. Such a great news!
Yep I agree. Was starting to lose interest but this video has got me reinvested
Excited for you man! Wish you the best in 2024
Hi patterz
been here since i believe 20k. glad to see the growth. hopes up for whats coming!
Honestly, I'm digging the introspection. I'm glad you've figured out this isn't working for you, and I hope to see your channel thrive even more in the coming years!
The fact that you are able to reflect about what you don't like and dedicate to changing is more than some people can do. Kudos to you. That being said, very curious about the long-term sustainability of this. I hope you're able to stick to it, because it sounds like you'll be happier if you do, but I know big plans can be hard to manage sometimes. Best of luck!
I loved your 2022 content amd am glad you're going back to the roots - with new wisdom:) I'm glad I'll be seeing more of you:)
It takes a lot of self awareness and personal growth to recognize and admit your own flaws . Even more so to try changing them. We’re proud of you Jan
Man, I was starting to get the vibe for this coming up. Honestly go for it my guy, I’ll be here to keep watching!
Yeah when he took a few week break off pchal daily that turned into 5 months it was sad
We appreciate how candid you were with admitting how your work ethic has been effected, especially when I wouldn't have even considered that with how high quality some of your videos seemed to me. I'm still really looking forward to what type of stuff you'll make in the future though, including how your twitch streams go.
I don't know if you've considered it, or don't really like them much, but there are some interesting fan games out there, like Zeta/Omicron, and Insurgence, they include delta Pokémon, which were something featured in the card game, an example would be a grass type snorlax. They have nuzlocke features built in, which may help. I can only imagine the theory crafting you could come up with in games like those.
Id love to see a Reborn nuzlocke from him as well, since that game gets insanely difficult even without a nuzlocke.
he tried and did not like insurgence
I love the shout outs to the team behind you. All the best to you and to them :)
Appreciate the transparency! Excited to keep following and seeing where the road takes you. Will be trying to catch the streams as often as i can :)
I loved watching Garbage Green and Emerald Kaizo, so I'm really excited for the new stuff! It takes courage to look at yourself and decide to make big changes instead of cruising off low-effort videos, so I wish you luck in your new endeavors, and with Crystal Kaizo+ and Run and Bun!
I’m so proud of you for your honesty and artistic integrity. As a creator myself (not full time, but as a hobby and in a different medium than yours), the cycle of burnout is BRUTAL. Myself and I’m sure many others can find this video deeply relatable. No matter what, I’m rooting for you and I’m happy to call myself a fan. Stay true to yourself, and I can’t wait to see what you do next!
Glad to see you getting back to what you love. I’ll try to catch some streams and will be keeping an eye for the videos!
Listening to your streams is how I got through the work day in 2020. It's really good to hear you're returning to streaming and I hope to catch them all.
We woud love a Radical Red 4.0 Nuzlocke run Jan, we'll be here to support you through it
This made me smile. I wish you the best, Jan!
Love your content, Jan! Glad you're back on the regular grinds and best of luck with the CK and R+B runs!
I think it's normal to change things up as time passes for sure. Definitely do what makes you happy/is best for you. I love seeing how far you've come over the last few years, even if you aren't happy with everything that came out this year, your content overall has been so much better and you just seem like, in a better mood/friendlier/happier which I like too.
Excited to see where things go next! You've been a blast to watch and kudos to you for seeking out what engages you as a creator.
Watching right now....i hope it goes well. I will stay subbed independent of any changes cause i love this channel, it made move Pokemon more and Jan's commentary and explanation are amazing.
Really proud that you've discovered this level of introspection and self awareness. Maybe it's not new, but it's something I personally haven't seen from you before and I love to see people grow and improve. I was getting a bit annoyed by your content at times last year, but you've certainly won me back as a regular viewer both here and on Twitch. Maybe I'm alone on this one, maybe not, but I loved this video
I really appreciate your honesty and reflection. The studio looks great and I think 2024 will be a great year for you and your community. I can't wait to see the videos this year and the new name... It does look nice
Looking forward to a return to streaming! I really missed it. As far as main channel vids, I also miss your commentaries on other youtuber’s first nuzlocke attempts . IMO those have been some of your best vids
It sounds like you learned the difference between short term and long term benefits, for your channel, your community, and your own enjoyment. Even as someone looking in from the outside, I can tell how hard a lesson that is to learn, from my own life experiences. I'm looking forward to what this change in mindset will bring!
As someone who's been following your for a while now and absolutely love everything you pump out, i'm absolutely looking forward for the future of your channel! You're a beast pChal, all the success to you
I always appreciate when a CZcamsr is open and honest with their community. Glad you’re taking steps to improve the channel to where you’re happy with it. Can’t wait to see what you’ve got in store for this year! Much love Pchal!
Looking forward to it! I was missing some high difficulty nuzlocking on CZcams.
I'm so glad you'll be filling this void yet again, couldn't imagine it being anyone else but you, Jan.
Best of luck, hope the changes help the Channel grow
Dude this is why I love your channel. Your drive to see flaws and strive to fix them/better yourself is an inspiration. You do you man.
Am glad to hear you say these things, and I look forward to the things you've got coming up this year :)
really proud of you being both reflective and setting the plans to make the changes that you want to reach your goals!! I loved your videos at the end of last year even if they were sponsor deadlines- your editors (and you!) are doing fantastic work. I'm one of the guys who just puts CZcams videos on in the background and your content consistently entertains me; I'm looking forward to your rebrand and the things you have in store for this year!!
Yeah I hate it too. Especially this guy named Jan. Imagine playing Pokémon as a job and enjoying your life. Could not be me.
Jokes asides, I'm really on with this rebranding, I think we all saw your content evolve in this last year, and seeing you grow out of the 'Probably the Best Nuzlocker in the world' trope to lean into what you want to experiment with is very great, and I dig the honesty of the video. Hope you'll have fun no matter what you decide to go for in the long run!
His name is Jan btw
Who is Juan?
so hope to catch one of your streams and seeing your progress!!!!
much love man, it takes alot to open up like this!! looking forward to the new content!!!
That’s awesome! It’s not often that you see CZcamsrs do proper retrospectives on how their work has been going and deciding on concrete plans in how to get themselves where they want to be. Looking forward to the future videos!
I’m so excited to see what you do. Deep down, I knew something had changed, I just couldn’t put my finger on it until this video. I’m so excited to hear that you have recognized problems with your channel, and are working hard to change them. I look forward to the new year!
I am very excited for this. You have been my favorite Pokemon content creator for so many years and I will say that I have missed your streams and difficult challenges a lot. I had so much fun watching you do the GG run during that summer and I am very excited to see you get back to it! I commend you on realizing things need to change and hope you stick to what works best for you!
I have been missing your nuzlock grind content a lot over this year, and im glad you adressed the issue
You have an amazing team behind you, I'm excited to see what else you guys can do!
Hey Jan, longtime lurker here to say good on you for stepping up. This sort of thing is really hard to do, especially when you could just coast.
FWIW, when someone's in a place like you've been in, it shows. It was sad seeing you feeling less invested and passionate. I'm glad to hear you owning up to what you haven't been happy with, and laying out concrete goals. I wish you the best, and hope you find what you're looking for with the channel/career makeover!
(Also the new studio setup looks awesome!)
Really happy to see this, over the last year your videos have gone from an instant watch to just another poketuber's videos. I'm excited to see what's coming this year!
Hell yeah, looking forward to the new hardcore runs, hoping for pchal daily uploads of those too.
I’m so glad for this change for you Jan. I also have ran a CZcams channel for now 10 years to small success but I find that I get a much greater passion for it when I change my brand a little and get a little more life into it. I haven’t really watched your vids or streams for about a year and I was kinda missing them, glad you’re back on the train and I hope to catch a few vids every couple of days. Keep it up!
Best of luck, king! I get that feeling of getting complacent and boxing yourself into a corner you're not happy with! You're taking brave steps and I'm proud of you!
Yooo Nux
ew
i agree Nux
mega cringe coomer spotted
Cool, love this for you dude. Looking forward to seeing how things play out for you. Here's to a great year!
The frankness and honesty in this video was completely unexpected bt so refreshing. I'm not much of a stream watcher, but I'm excited to hear you're going to be going back to your roots ❤
PChal Daily this summer was my favorite series on yt. So excited to hear that you’re back!
This looks like an amazing step forward for you. Best of luck in all of your endeavors, pChal.
Jan super excited for the new content its nice to see you actually reflect on what's wrong super rare gl gl ill be here for the ride
Really glad to hear from you so frankly, and excited for the changes you're planning. You've got this Jan!
We support you through everything as this is the place to find the most optimal nuzlocke strats from the no. 1 nuzlocker.
This is the apology video no one expected but everyone appreciates, also the content was great for 2023 but I’m so down to see what you do next
I'm looking forward to the streams and the daily highlights coming back. I lived off of Emerald Kaizo while I was taking a really hard course and gossiping over it with some friends in the class was a great bonding experience. I look forward to seeing your hard work again in the future!
Really gotta appreciate how honest he was about himself in this video. He wasnt afraid to admit what he knew he was getting away with cause it was the easiest way to make money, bit also was willing to recognize that his audience will not let him get away with that forever. Looking forward to a new beginning!
Respect for the honesty and I can’t wait for the new content.
The goat returns. Love it. Long term sub here and I've been happy with everything you've done but this news makes me especially excited for a return to 'nuzlocking form' if you will. Didn't really miss a PChal Daily video forever, it always accompanied my work at home. Very excited for the year
Great Work! I noticed that you didnt post too many of your nuzlock recaps. And that was really what I watched you for and found myself not clicking on your videos/not watching them through all the way. Cant wait to watch your next recap!
I’ve enjoyed the content from the time of the reaction videos and it’s inspired me to do so many nuzlockes. Proud of you for making positive changes you want and looking forward to seeing the new plan unfold!
You're the best nuzlocker in our hearts. Looking forward to more things you put out!
8:47 YOOO PCHAL DAILY IS BACK
Self honesty is the best honesty. Love what you did with this video. Hope you get to pay the bills while full filling yourself!
super exited to see what all you and the team can do with the new approach! here's to a great 2024!
Honestly? I enjoyed your tier lists, a couple of them were really helpful to put things into perspective for my own Nuzlocke runs. At the end of the day though, it's all about making the content you really feel passionate about. Really excited to see what you've got in store for the year ahead, thanks for everything so far Jan (p.s. I missed seeing the sloth)
Whatever you do we will still be here for you
Hey man good for you! Glad you are doing what makes you happy and whats best for the channel
It's awesome that you're changing things up! Best of luck, I bet this year will be great
I don’t know how difficult he will find it or if he’ll want to do it at all, but I would love to see Jan do Hardcore Radical Red again since he played before 4.0 came out.
Mad respect to being honest, not only to yourself but to your viewers as well, that's a difficult thing to do.
Best of luck to you man, hope it turns out to be a great year
I love all of the emotion in this video! You really improved on that!
