The only flying type Steven Stone has is Skarmory…
He flew on the back of a METAL BIRD in the middle of a THUNDERSTORM.
Best champion ever.
Tbf, your chances of getting hit on a metal bird or nonmetal bird is about the same. Regardless of what animal you're riding, if you are struck you'd probably die either way, lol.
@@nyanSynxPHOENIX nah it'd just give steven thunder armour or smth
No it's cythya
@@warcrabs So THATS why he was in mossdeep, tate and liza has experience with how thunder armor works
@@kjbdcoiuh Cynthia ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
"DID SOMEONE SAY SKILLS??"
best transition ever
yes made me watch the ad
Absolutely hilarious xD
him saying oh my god as it is happening made it all the better
the "oh god" had me laughing xD
True😆
I wasn't expecting basically one giant Fight Club reference throughout, but that just made the run all the better. Amazing video!
I LOVED the Brad Pitt flashes, I haven't finished the vid yet, but if Hariyama dies and he doesn't say "His name was Robert Paulson" I'll be extremely disappointed
Edit, spoilers:
I wasn't disappointed 😌
Fight Club just came onto Netflix and I finally got around to watching it last night, the timing couldn't have been more perfect
@@MHFUFAnAtic you need to rewatch it guarantee you didn’t pick up half of the genius
You have broken the first rule
@@SmHexsee of of
I can't believe I caught all the fight club references and STILL didn't expect that Steven twist
how does it happen
29:47 It should be noted that not only did Steven fly across the ocean during a biblical tier thunderstorm, he did so on the back of a METAL BIRD. Steven had some serious stones.
So manly
I found theboriginal non stolen comment
that pun is painful... well done
Yeah but wouldn't it not matter since lighting wants to find a place to hit ground and... you know. Flying? Same reason planes are usually fine.
To be fair, Steel's not weak to Electric, and even if this Skarmory had Lightningrod or something, it would absorb all of the electricity
This man just pronounced Magnemite in 2 different ways. Never change, please
we have the exact same pfp. we are both gods.
I was looking for this comment haha
I always end up questioning what I know whenever he does that..
@@locten4949 are you sure?
It looks as if I reign supreme
Did you hear how he says FACADE tho??
Imagine having not seen Fight Club and being confused during this until the ending lol
Great run! I saw the champion twist coming for obvious reasons but it was fun that you even gave Steven your team too.
I haven’t seen Fight Club either, I was Very Confused until I went to the comments lol
I might watch Fight Club just to re-watch this video and get the references haha
Rule 1 of fight club: never talk about fight club
Me,who doesnt even know about the existence of this fight club😗
Guys, stop talking about the fight club, you're breaking the rules of the fig- oh, wait, sorry.
The "Marla hasn't been crit like that since grade school" line was phenomenal
I can't believe he said that 💀💀
“Afraid of the dark?
Punch it.”
-JelloApocalypse
Boss giving you a hard time? Punch it
Orphan annoying you? punch it, what is it gonna do? call its parents?
Bro why was I thinking of that exact line when I saw the video
Is this an epithet erased reference
shout out to the best Pokémon, Probopass, keeping it real since 2001
I dont even bother to skip the sponsors given how creative the transition is.
That was the first commercial i watched that was the most hilarious transition😂
Right
I did on principle.
The script and storytelling, the characters and connections developed to them, the twist at the end…someone should make a movie with this plot.
It was fucking amazing! I love Flygon. I NEED FLYGON MERCH
uh... this is a joke, right?
Fore sure man, we should call it... Brawl Association.
People play Smash Brawl to combat the feeling of alienation the feel but it also leads them to kill because people don’t know about the intricacies of Glide usage for Meta Knight and wobbling and they feel that if you do not peal to those heights of fighting excellence, you are not living your life.
And then subplots about pedophilia happen
@@LainLain7 Combat guild
I love all of your videos, but this is probably my favorite one. That second 'DID SOMEONE SAY SKILLS?!' "NO! WE ARE NOT DOING THIS AGAIN!" had me rolling on the floor. Very good video.
3:56
_"He is smart, he is kind, he is handsome, he's strong. He's perfect. He's what every man in this world should be."_

Lol
That's not Cynthia
@@FalconFetus8 cynthia is not a man.
@@FalconFetus8 iris is better
@@FalconFetus8 bruh
"Hasn't been crit like that since grade school". I loved all the fight club references lmaoo
Edit: That ending! Holy shit!
Can we please talk about how cool and unique this episode is? I wont spoil anything but the end is and the setup is amazing!
I thought I was emotionally prepared for Raymond's death, since all he was good for really was Leech Seed. But then, against the champion, I learned that my sweet boy wanted to be a veterinarian. My heart was absolutely shattered as Raymond's dreams went to the grave with him. I will forever be inconsolable over this loss.
He worked in a convenience store to pay for the college he was going to to become a veterinarian, so sad :(
The question, Raymond K Hessel, is what did you want to be when you grow up?
that's my name. sad
Losing 4 mons to Winona was worth it for "Jack's smirking revenge"
What was the deal with "Jack's" through the whole run?
@@keener9563 I believe its a reference to FIght Club based on other comments here
@@Tarudizer thanks i was very very confused the whole video
I like how you bank on the fact no one pays attention during the rules part
Don’t talk about fight club
@@jasmijn-1419 talk about what?
@@matthijscalje4143 I said don't talk about it
@@definitelyaverysensibleperson don't talk about what? What is it you don't talk about?
@@matthijscalje4143 dangit.. it's a reference to Fight Club haha the first rule in Fight Club is "We don't speak about Fight Club" it's ashow
“Marla hasn’t been crit like that since grade school” I almost spit out my drink
Fighting your own team in the end was quite the entertaining way to wrap up a nuzlocke. Nothing like facing yourself and dead teammates!
I am Jack's enjoyment over watching this video. Loved the Fight Club references!
What’s fight club?
It’s a movie
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 if ur in the club then who’s the leader?
@@joeyyoung5173 You missed the funny
@@malixyx first rule of fight club is to never talk about fight club.
I knew the switching mechanic was a bit broken in double battles, but never realized it could also be exploited in single battles
The themes you often run with in your videos are so fun. Scripting it as one big Fight Club reference is delightful, and your delivery makes it even better.
Dude, FlygonHG is the peak of manliness in this run. I wanna be just like him!
I was very happy to hear that he actually got the point of the movie instead of just "haha violence is manly"
I honestly loved the weird fanfic involving steven and the protagonist
yeah it was very clever
I love that he basically turned this nuzelock into Fight Club
Just wanted to acknowledge the quality of your content friend, we really appreciate it and I’m glad I found your channel.
Medicham is seriously underrated. Love seeing Angel Face shine in this run! 👼
I think people don't use Medicham because they think it's ugly? Medicham is actually one of my favorite Pokemon since it's not only useful in battle, but the concept behind it is really cool. It's basically a super-strong yogi and I think that's utterly badass.
Amazing run. Medicham used to be so good in gen 3, I remember loving the one I had in Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness.
Also, I have come up with a really cool idea for a hardcore nuzlocke you may enjoy that may be easiest in Soulsilver, but can be done in any game/generation: Single-stage pokemon only. In Soulsilver, you can get Dunsparce and Unown before gym one and get a total of 12 encounters! (From what I've seen of other gens you have to do at least one important battle before getting a single-stage pokemon, but by using universal pokemon randomizer you could swap starter for first encounter easily)
I guess we do not talk about the fight club
That Slaking interaction was super interesting to see
Shadow Ball + Pure Power is also super good, wowie (and medicham in general, clearly)
Also the ending LOL
Holy shit that ending was amazing! Also when he praises Steven "[...] couldn't be me" made me laugh out loud
Say facade the way you do one more time, I dare you. 🤣
The style of this video was brillant! I loved it!
okay I was studying for my public educator certification but....... I always gotta drop everything for the new FlygonHG vids
i loved the steven stone YA novel side story throughout this one
YA? It`s fight club.
Lmao he literally said at the end explicitly how it's all a fight club reference and people still don't get it
I know that the whole "fachade" thing is a joke but I cringe every time 😂
You went above and beyond with the fight club references and top marks for the ending x
Gamefreak should add more special fighting moves /Pokémon
They do in later generations
Lucario was pretty much the first good special fighting type. And decently fast. I’ve swept whole games with him.
@@collinbrown9233 they didn't tho, the only strong special fighting move is focus blast, which has trash accuracy, and the only viable fighting special mon is lucario, whose physical attack is still better
@@francescomalguzzi2123 aura sphere
@@Hades-lg8fd no dude, aura sphere is good and all but literally only 12 mons can learn it, half of which are legendaries
Did this in ORAS and boy it was a great run with EV training and better movesets. Also, the new pokemon like gallade and scrafty after the national dex really helped. Great upload as always.
I laughed my ass off with these references. One of the greatest nuzzlocks ever. Keep doing this amazing job!
You’re my current favorite Pokémon youtuber. You’re content is funny, informative and has epic story telling. It’s always a treat when you upload.
The best improvement emerald made to the gen 3 games wasnt the new content, but the new font.
truuuue
The challenge rules are… oddly specific this time. Love your videos! Always look forward to uploads :)
Heh. Antlerboy also posted a fighting type run today! This was great to see considering Fighting is my favorite type. Just pay no attention to the Vulpix.
Salamence killing Angel Face: "I felt like destroying something beautiful."
Who else gets exited every time FlygonHG uploads? I live for your videos, keep it up 🌟
Me : gets excited
Andrea : 🚪🏃♀️💨
this comment and this reply confuses me. I, don't feel so good anymore.
Zoomers have reverted back to sharing their thoughts with pictographs.
Been waiting for this one since I saw the Twitter post about slaking and passive damage Glad I was able to explain it to you - it's a fun niche interaction that comes up occasionally in competitive adv battles with the permanent sandstorm all around
Thanks for the shoutout! That first turn flee is painful 🥲
Edit: glad it eventually works
I don’t think I’ve ever legitimately laughed out loud at a CZcams vid and I’m here in my car cracking up at the “turn” at 35:00 😂 love u dude, needed this today. Thanks doc 👍🏼
I am Jack's love of the effort and creativity put into these videos.
That bit at the end criticizing people’s perception of Fight Club was *chef’s kiss*
Well, that part with Norman's final Slaking was pretty neat. I actually never knew you could do that until now.
Flygon, this video is amazing! This has been one of your best works so far!
How you integrate the Fight Club refs, how educational you are with the Peck x Double Kick analysis and Gen3 switch mechanics. This video has been high level content, entertainment and knowledge. Well done!
As soon as I saw the notification I clicked. Flygon you have rekindled my joy for Pokémon.
I like how the narrative of the nuzlocke weaved itself into a type of fight club narrative, most boticeably with Steven, but even with throwaway lines like "his name was Robert Paulson." That was cool! And I really liked the ending.
I really disliked the Glacia music though. I'm probably in the minority, but it just didn't fit the moment for me.
I like that you keep exploring what Nuzlockes are supposed to be, melding them with your pre-existing interest in film. RuPaul would be proud that you're using what you've got, and not letting your inner saboteur get the best of yourself. Then again, Ru doesn't watch Nuzlockes
Don’t love what RuPaul’s been doing, but we love a nuzlocker with charm uniqueness nerve and talent
I only recently found your channel never having watched nuzlocke gameplay before. Just wanted to say thank you, I went right back in your videos and have watched from old to new. So far your videos have given me countless hours of joy and entertainment. I hope you keep up the work into the future. Thanks heaps 🙏
First of all, nice rules. Second, OH MY GOD. That is, hands down, the BEST sponsor transition I have ever seen. The timing, the volume differences, the little "ohmygod." Freaking 14/10 dude, 4 Michelin stars, I legitimately wish there was an award you could give someone for a transition so stellar.
I started doing emerald with only fighting types, and I said, “this is awesome! No ones done it before!” Sigh. Great video tho
This is sapphire not emerald so it's still unique
I saw that but it was made like 3 months ago.
Bold of you to assume that there's something like "no ones done it before" in internet.
JK
The Fight Club references are 100!!! Well done my good sir!
Love the fight club theme here, especially the Steven narrative. Did not see that twist at the end coming XD
This was a super fun video. Also I don't know how possible it would be, but a hardcore nuzlocke where you're only allowed to use the pokemons used by the grunts of whatever bad guy team could be fun!
Oh it’s fightclub, lmao I thought it was a twighlight reference
Yay new flygon upload your stuff is still so entertaining
29:05 "Marla hasn't been crit like that since grade school." Had me choking on my water.
I only found you a week or two ago, but I've been binging your content since. Your dedication to your videos is insane, and the quality that you consistently put out is great too. You always sound so invested in your runs, even though it's your 100th time playing through the game. I appreciate your nicknaming themes, and the fact that you exclusively call the pokemon BY their nicknames in the video. It makes them feel unique and important! And WOW, there are FEW youtubers who would actually reset a late-game wipe like this. The time investment, dedication, and skill really makes all your content enjoyable!
Another rule I thought of for these runs is the "competitive rule" where both teams in a major battle have to use the same number of Pokémon. Meaning you can only go into a battle with Brawley for example with 2 Pokémon, and you won't be able to use all 6 in a major battle until the Elite 4.
I am Jack's absolute joy at watching a new flygonhg video
It took me a while because I've been busy but I loved this video. Really sad Marla went down but great to see Medicham shine. Also really loved the Fight Club references!
Such good narration and skillful in battle too, no wonder you're a favourite of so many people when it comes to nuzlocke challenges 😃
Finally!! Been waiting for another Flygon video!
This is my first time actually reading the rules in so long I'm so glad I did lmaooo
Actually...
The plot twist of YOU being the champion is the best plot twist I've ever seen in a game of Pokemon.
I missed the naming theme until the end of the run, when that monologue about the true themes of Fight Club made me literally cover my mouth in delighted shock
(And THEN I remembered where the name Marla Singer was from; and now Angel Face, my god, was I paying any attention?!)
Love your runs, this was as delightful as the rest ♡
"Imagine his power if I hadn't already used my Bulk Up TM on Marla"
Doesn't...doesn't Combusken learn Bulk Up by level-up at level 27-28?
He wanted to have Bulk Up earlier. Assuming 28 is when he learns it his Combusken wouldn't have it until Flannery, meaning he'd have to hit the cap for Flannery before he fights Archie. He basically needed his Combusken to have Bulk Up for the Archie fight too.
The end was awesome like always Flygon.
I’m not misinterpreting the movie. Tyler is just a cool guy who’s good at fighting. Just like my other favorite character and role model, Rorschach from Watchmen
The Fight Club parallel was fun this video. Really enjoyed that conclusion! Good vid
Not only did Steven fly across the open ocean in a thunderstorm, but it was on a Skarmory - a giant METAL bird
I just discovered the magic of emulators and how to use them, (I've been missing out my entire life), And the first thing I went to was sapphire.
I really enjoy your videos. Every single one of them. Your narration, your jokes, the pacing of the video; everything is perfect. Keep doing what you're doing because you're doing great!
This is gotta be my FAVORITE video in the channel, all the reference and jokes about Fight Club totally killed me, my fav was the run that endedagainst Winona at 20:55, Robert fainting and loosing everything was Gold....
Thanks for the great content and keep up the good work
Haven’t even finished video yet but that ad transition was phenomenal, one might even say, skilful.
Okay I’ll leave.
Really wished you forgot to record the champion’s battle to be able to see that amazing interpretation of the battle once again it would have been amazing
lmao yes
oh this gave me a much needed laugh on a sick day; your videos are always great. keep it up man. glad I subscribed.
what a great video dude loved all the fight club references especially that end with steven lmaooooo super well done!
It took me till the end of the first Brawly fight to notice the Fight Club motif, but took me until the KO if Heracross to notice the team swap.
Stuff like 35:19 is exactly why your quickly becoming one of my favorite CZcamsrs. Keep up the good work
What a fantastic video man, it's my first of you I've ever watched, you earned yourself a new fan and subscriber!
This channel is in contention for my favorite channel on this site, I feel excited everytime I see you post, thank you homie for the content
Yay another nuzlocke
Finally: a challenge run with the best Pokémon type. Let’s go!
Agreed. fighting type is one of my fav types.
Same. Fighting is a great typing.
Easily the greatest twist in the history of Nuzlockes. Bar none.
Thanks for the advice on Slaking. Love how game mechanics change in different gens
"no significant differences in team 3"
Well, your torchic now has a jolly nature-probably the best it could have, and the harayama no longer has the timid nature the first one had so it no longer has an attack penalty. Kinda funny the machop still had a hasty/naive nature again, that same +Spd for - a defense stat. I think the combusken's jolly nature helped it outspeed Archie's golbat when combined with the speed EV training
Attempt 5-wow, jolly guts Heracross? That's a heck of a lucky find. Congrats on finishing the run, it was entertaining
Jolly lowers special attack, and in this game all fire moves are special due to there being no physical/special split, so it’s not really the best seeing as fire type moves really help in this game.
@@RubyGayming *looks up blaziken's stats* Huh, it has a much higher Special Attack than I thought at 110, I was thinking it was closer to like 80 Sp. Atk. The -spd Atk part of jolly nature probably didn't help with the fire moves, but since I think he mainly used it for physical moves I think it still helped overall, especially the speed boost part. Though, since the run died anyways it ended up being a bit moot
I watched fight club for the first time about a week ago. Going into it, I was told that it would be about a gay man coming to terms with his sexuality. I got something very different.
I mean it's not completely wrong depending on how you look at it. Haha
They say everything these days has to be about sex shit. The dudes who made the matrix tried to ad hoc say it was about transitioning.
@@GhGh-gq8oo there is a female crew member who is far more male presenting in the Matrix and Morpheus does say your appearance in the Matrix reflects how you view yourself. I doubt the whole movie is about that, but there might be Trans representation in it. At least from that crewmember. I don't know if it was intentional or not. Still a cool little detail if true.
Wait is it 😅 I would be more inclined to watch it if it is
@@rahng1941 Fight Club is way more about the identity crisis the main character faces as he isn't what society expects him to be with some very toxic masculinity thrown in as a way to cope.
i love all your videos so much!! i am trying my first ever nuzlocke on platinum right now and it makes me admire your nuzlocking strategies so much more. my favorite pokemon youtuber!!!
I am Jack’s sincere appreciation for the amount of references in this video
A gen 3 game kinda nostalgic 👍
Epic!
That whole homage-y bit was gold. I had just as much fun finding all the easter eggs as i did watching the run
This is one of the best channels I've ever seen. The quality, the jokes, even the ad was amazing. Will sub next time I catch your stream.
