      I mean, he just makes us feel all the deaths intended and casually says ‘sacrifice X to bring Y’ and this is also the first time (atleast for me) to see someone use sticky barb.
      Which is why loss of sticky barb is definitely more emotional.

      Sucker Geo was very fun in Little Cup to catch people off guard. Have a Sturdy Geodude with Custap berry for priority-- get put to Sturdy but kill the attacker, then typically Earthquake the next thing too with priority they didn't expect, and then chip a third final thing (or kill, depending on what they brought in) with Sucker Punch was a highlight of some earlier gen LC games for me.

    The sticky barb strats were so clean and my favorite because of the level of difficulty. Not only do you have to plan taking a hit, you have to get hit by a contact move and THEN time it perfectly to kill the other mon with a physical move, if you're even one turn off you lose the sticky barb. You'd made it look easy

    I like how GameFreak did their best to up the difficulty in those games, but not once did they think to make the AI switch out when hit with something like Yawn or Ghost-type Curse.
    RBY Agatha can be smarter than this on occasion.

    • @Math.Bandit

      It's a no-win for GameFreak lol. In PC's Level-1 Platinum run he abused the fact that the AI *does* switch on Perish Song to win a ton of the fights.

      There'd also be things like gen V sturdy for pivoting, and since the E4/Ghetsis fights are at a pretty low level relative to other games champs it should make it a bit easier. Although I imagine having explosion and self-destruct only doing half as much damage will hurt certain strats.

    I absolutely love the nuzlocke content. Very interesting challenges and we can tell you know a lot about what you’re doing. I love the explanations and strats you use and foresight for what you need late game. I would encourage you in the future to try out emerald kaizo- you would destroy that game. That edging joke too lmao

    Your Littlelockes inspired me to start my own XY LittleLocke. So far I’ve beaten the 1st gym. If you ever consider doing XY, I’d be interested in what strategies you think of.
    Update: 2nd gym down and almost lost the run to a Hawlucha in Glistening cave losing important Pokémon for the 3rd and 4th gyms. Jazz the Combee needs to carry me in the next 2 gyms…

    Man, you are skillful and very entertained to watch. I encourage you to keep doing Hardcore Nuzlockes of any nature, personally, I would very much love to see a Hardlocke series of all pokemon games from Gen I and onwards, please consider doing so. Greetings from Cuba.
