      @@dungeonmaster3464 very true, but at the same time, as PC has explained many times, nuzlocke itself is a set of self imposed rules. Not every nuzlocke player plays by the same rules. So they could play a soullink that doesn't include the type limitation, within reason. Like, they probably couldn't have an entire team with the same type for all pokemon, but they wouldn't be limited to just one type per team/soullink.

      That's one thing I like about the Nuzlocke community, in general everyone's really chill & friendly and just looking for a fun time and they're not really in it to judge other people.
      Nuzlockes aren't really my thing, when I play Pokemon, I just do it to relax and chill without needing to stress about anything (hence why I don't plan to ever attempt a Nuzlocke myself), but I still enjoy watching other people do Nuzlockes, since there are times where it alerts me to the fact that certain other Pokemon can be really useful (such as Gastrodon & Cradilly), and that has led to me giving those Pokemon a try myself. It's for a similar reason that I like the Dynamax Adventures in Sword/Shield's Crown Tundra DLC, as it forces players to use Pokemon that they haven't raised themselves, and it forces them to learn how to use Pokemon in different ways to how they might otherwise do so.
      If I ever want to play something that's actually hard, that's when I turn to games like Dark Souls or Bloodborne. But I'm generally a casual gamer, I'm really just in it to relax and have fun.

    @sninctbur3726 Před rokem +13

    3:47 Fair point, but I would argue that randomized runs can in fact test your knowledge of Pokemon's systems even more than a standard nuzlocke. Going up against God with a few random pokemon forces you to improvise a plan to defeat him. The more you know about the particular game you're playing, the more easily you can worm your way through the fight.

    My very first nuzlocke is a bw2 soullink with a friend of mine. Not only is it my first nuzlocke, it was my first time playing bw2. I was pretty much relying on my friend to guide me through stuff.
    We’ve had some very memorable moments, but the best part of our run is a audino-magnezone pair we named Audozone. I vividly remember my friend lamenting accidentally running into the rustling grass and getting an audino, then BOTH of us falling in love with the pair as the run went on and they kept carrying the team. They practically became our second starters.
    Unfortunately, audino Audozone died to the team plasma sage’s cryogonal in the frozen city. My friend was quiet for a solid minute before telling me what happened, he was in sheer disbelief. Right now we’re at the water gym and are seriously struggling to make ends meet without them.

    I'm ploughing through the game just for funsies, and had just caught a little Horsea who was hanging out at the back with EXP share... and then Pikachu gets hit with the One Two punch of critical dams followed up by Toxic poison damage and goes down. Koga tares through the rest of my team because I Was A Child and Pikachu was level 80 and everything else in my team was 30 or lower. Horsea was level 9.
    But Horsea had SMOKE SCREEN.

    Honestly soul links are interesting. They seem like a fun time and with Scarlet and violet, it's easier to pull off nowadays. I think the only rule i'd remove is that one typing per team rule. That just seems boring to me and if someone picks up say a magnemite, i don't want to lose out on a steelix/aggron that i could have gotten, and i'd rather not ask my teammate to remove their magnemite and lose out on a magnezone. (unless it's only primary typing and not the secondary typing, in which case i guess that's fine? Still kind of a ruling i'd probably not use just because it'd be more fun to me)
    I will also say that the randomized starters is why i choose "must have 3 evolutions" so I don't get a legendary or a final form pokemon

  • @nutmegdoesstuff1339
    @nutmegdoesstuff1339 Před rokem +3

    I feel like types and stats are the two things that are available in the basic upr randomizer thing but are the last ones to be used. Encounters are easy to play around, movesets and abilities can lead to a couple moments where you just get absolutely wrecked but are generally pretty tame, but randomizing types or base stats just turns it into a complete guessing game. You could like encounter a golem, use a water move, but whoops, it's actually a fast sweeping electric type now and your water type is dead.

    Back again. Hubby and I have started a Soul Link run in Pokemon Infinite as a way of having dates while he's deployed. It's been an amazing time, and we never woulda gotten into it if not for P Challenge and Jaiden Animations. Thank you both for inspiring an activity that helps me keep connected with my beloved, no matter how far he is from me.
