What do YOU have planned for National Swinub Day??
Feb. 20th is a holiday in Canada called Family Day so nothing really.
That’s my birthday! I’m honored to share my birthday with National Swinub Day.
You mean international swinub day?
I’m shiny hunting Swinub the entire day.
Update- I found one by accident and I’m naming it Age.
@jessevangijck you mean intergalactic swinub day
As someone who's actual favourite type is ice... That opening stung.
there are dozens of us! dozens!
You're important to me bro
right 😭
Yes, our favorite type is ice. Yes, we exist.
Same, and the hype on my favorite pokémon Swinub just for him to get killed 😢😢😢
As Feraligatr is available in the game now, you should try a Nuzlocke in Scarlett and violet with Feraligatr, Krokodile and Skeledirge.
Name it ' croclocke '
If Dr.Oneball HG won't do it, I definitely will
Skeledirge can basically solo-locke those games, though.
Nuzcroc?
With krookodile doing much of the heavy lifting rest are just a burden...
I support this comment 💯
I saw the title and i was like "omg flygon made another nuzlocke with my favorite pokemon type" and then the intro happened
The animation for the end of that final fight was SICK!
came to say this: MORE OF THAT DUDE!
The FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood score sampling was chef’s kiss in that moment as well.
I agree
Yesss!!!
Just noticed this week how FlygonHG made only one Psychic Monolocke(In Omega Ruby).
Hope 2024 can finally bring a second Psychic run.
i hope so as well!! it's by far my fav type, i'd love one in unova (which literally every single psychic i love in)
This aged well
Swinub Day sounds like a terrific idea, let's put it in my agenda real quickly!
I wanna make swinub chocolates to celebrate!🎉
15:50 There's nothing big to it, Paula's just a ghost and you delivering the letter lets her finally move on
I was looking for this comment bc I was also overthinking the situation, thank you stranger!!!! 😅
Yep. I was surprised to find that there's someone who didn't get that situation. She literally leaves behind the Reaper Cloth item to further prove she's a ghost. Like... How is it confusing???
Alolan Ninetales has quickly become one of my favourite pokemon after using it in Violet. Snow warning and blizzards make for a pretty good bulky and specially offensive pokemon.
SAME! I've been using a Prankster Whimsicott to set up Tailwind, then Snow Warning Alolan Ninetails to set up Aurora Veil, then just spamming Blizzard & Helping Hand while taking half damage from everything. Never realized how much fun double battles could be
Galar Darmanitan vs Charizard mini animation went so unbelievably hard. You should definitely work that kind of thing into more videos, either very special moments or a full champ battle? I absolutely loved it!
Ice O’Tope took me out. As did ice osceles
i didn't get the naming scheme at all until reading your comment lol
@@afrokidxxi was trying to figure out o’tope for ages, I got the naming scheme quickly but isotope didn’t clock for a while
That wheezing Arctovish bit was amazing 😂
Honestly, considering how that fight with Kabu went, I’m shocked you managed to finish this in one attempt. Happy New Years 🎉❤
im reading this right before the kabu fight starts, and it feels incredibly ominous
Loved the nickname theme, though I am ashamed to admit it took me 'till D'Coffee to figure it out. The hardest to figure out was Luge, though I I had never heard of what her name is based on.
Great video, and I'm excited to see what you have in store for 2024, that Snaplocke of Renegade Platinum sounds like a fun ride. Props to whoever made that finale art too, that was killer.
For viewers that didn't get the theme, put ice in front of any of the team member's names. My favorite is Osceles.
same omg, i literally didn't realize until icle was sent out again nearly 28 mins into the video.. i'm embarassed
What IS Luge based on?
@@salmonandsoup apparently something called an ice luge, basically an ice sculpture with holes built in to pour drinks through for parties.
@@lanceams483 ohhhhhh… that makes a lot of sense with how beautiful Alolan Ninetales is!
For what it's worth, I'm a huge fan of watching videos that have been uploaded for less time than their lengths are. It's kinda like a feature film debut.
This is wonderfully coincidental, since I’m also doing a full Ice type run of Sword right now. Love these guys with my life.
That surprise animation at the end was so well done! We love a good vengeance sequence
You’ve GOTTA do a six-Pokémon run in the vein of Spheal Team Six with the Swinub Squad in Platinum!
HOLY THE CINEMATIC AT THE END WAS AMAZING
Been having a bit of a rough time lately, but that Boltund gag gave me a sorely needed case of the giggles. Thank you so much for putting out such consistently solid content and I look forward to whatever you end up doing next year!
(Also good job playing around G-max Duraludon, thought that would be a bigger problem for you)
16 types? Whaaa? I've long been a believer that Swinub is in the top 10 cutest Pokemon, that little guy is great. Paula is a ghost, you find a Reaper Cloth where she was if you return after delivering letter. I like that human ghosts occasionally pop up in these games.
Glad Gen 8 is getting more love. It catches a lot of flak but I like it 😅 also ice is one of my favorite types!
It does get a lot of flak because of the trees (graphics), lack of voice acting (especially for piers in his intro cutscene), bad story, dexit and weird Pokémon designs (they are honestly some of my favourite ones). Also dynamax but I personally like the designs of gigantamax Pokémon more than megas even though megas are objectively better gimmick wise.
I personally like swsh but I do agree that they were some of the objectively worst Pokémon games, as sad as that is and makes me.
@@THGMR-ox7sd hey at least the game doesn’t give you motion sickness
@@THGMR-ox7sd also the game actually has good graphics that don’t look like the Pokemon just got blended
@@iangabriel3261what game can give you motion sickness if your not playing in a car in which swsh can to
Flygon that edit on pokemon that can go F themselves is genuinely top tier! Hilarious, great video work!
Even among all of your excellent content you’ve been putting out recently, this one really stands out to me. Super dramatic storytelling and edge-of-my-seat gameplay moments, and an excellent nickname theme, equal parts funny and charming. Plus, that little animated touch at the end there is beautiful! Brilliant stuff!
I know Froslass is all the rage when it comes to nuzlockes, but my favorite ice type has got to be Glalie.
GLALIE DESERVES RESPECT.
@@derricktan5166 You bet it does!
Froslass is superior sts
Sorry bro, Froslass is just objectively the better pokemon in every way. :(
@@Bludgeoned2DEATH2except in visual design. Glalie gen 3 art sprite is fucking metal
Please keep the list of Pokemon that can go… you know around as a long running gag
i simultaneously cackled and went "oof... yeah" when I saw spiritomb there
the nicknames you give your pokemon on these runs literally never disappoint
The animation was unexpected but so beautiful. You always bring such a story to your runs, it makes them so enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to seeing what you do in 2024!
Your editing is always great, but I feel like the sound editing on this video was on another level. Extremely well done! The animated part in the end was also amazing. Also, RIP Swinub.
Thank you for the ice type run, I have been absolutely addicted to watching ice type runs lately.
This is one of your best videos.
The humor's on point, the strategies are sick and the last animatics at the end are the cherry on top.
Way to close out the year with a bang.
i love Ice-Osceles as a nickname. Truly one of the nicknames of all time
A Gen specific Locke in a later game would be cool! Gen 1 pokemon only or redone pokemon only etc.
Great video as always! Can’t wait to see what you put out in 2024!
As someone whose birthday is February 19th, I am honored to share a day so close to Swinub Day ❤
Been watching his videos from the start to the present in the last couple weeks and to see him become more energetic as time goes on is hilarious
That animation at the end was a pleasant surprise, it really helped seal the deal on just how great it feels to beat these games on a nuzlocke. I also wish you a speedier recovery with COVID, AND wishing you a happy new year!
WOOOOOO! ICE TYPES!!! love u flygon, happy to be here!!!
Loving the content, the animation really amped up the emotions for that final fight.
As for ideas, Ponylocke?
:0 what abt a wolflocke
Thanks for another great year of content! I’m always glad to see your videos in my feed and I’m sure that’ll continue into next year. Rest well!
Always love a Flygon video, such a great combo of humor and strategy, but that animation took it to a new level! Incredible addition to the story.
LOL THE NAMES. (ice) spice? (ic)icle, (ice) cube? brilliant work doctor oneball
could you make a genlocke project sometime as a series? You can use each pokemon only in one gen and you got to play each gen from 1 to 9
I thoroughly enjoy sword and shield runs for no reason, great video flygon, thank you for making 2023 a great year with your videos! See you next year
I absolutely love this, it’s been a while since I tuned into a video and the gameplay and style is still fantastic with even better editing and quality! Great job Dr. Flygon HG!
Dr Flygon Hg never fails to show us his skills with balls despite his late pregnancy.
I honestly think ice should resist water attacks defensively. It would improve them a lot.
Grass and bug too. Like what are bugs and a bunch of leafs supposed to do against ice?
Watching your content over the years, I really see the progress in quality. KEEP IT UP FLYGONHG
the names are easily the best naming theme I have ever seen from a Flygon vid. O'Tope and Osceles have to be my favorites
Love seeing a return to the Galar region 🙌
AGE WAS TOO YOUNG......
I love Gordie. He's just really wholesome and supportive. Like, the way he encourages us during the gym mission is so sweet.
This was a riveting challenge to watch! I love the passion you put into your videos and I can't wait for more!
Fun idea for a run: Pokémon Red (or other Gen 1 game) with only “Alolan” forms. Essentially, you can only use Pokémon that received an Alolan Forme, but since they don’t exist in Gen 1, you’ll be using their normal forms instead.
I liked my own comment
I always do that we have to stick together
I liked your comment too
I too liked your comment
I liked my own comment aswell
Ok
Flygon sounding like he has a head cold kind of brings this whole idea together. I hope you feel better soon, Dr. Oneball H.G.
Thank you for a fantastic year of videos! Looking forward to the next year to come :D
Bro, I’ve been here since his very first video and when he was at like 3k subs. Crazy to see how much he’s grown and also the difference in his voice from the first video compared to now. Keep up the awesome work my dude!
Thanks for a wonderful year of content! I'm sorry you have COVID and I hope you recover quickly!
Galarian-Hau's Boltund going so hard in that battle was hilarious.
This is, both in idea and execution, one of the best nicknaming themes of all time.
I love Ice types so much. And i love the Gen 8 games. This is perfection
i am so incredibly honored to share my birthday with national swinub day
Dude! Your videos keep getting better that Leon fight was fantastic! Seriously it’s been AMAZING watching you grow through the years starting from the first video I watched with how to wipe the emerald elite 4 with a belly drum lineune
Thank you for such a great year Dr. Flygon!!! Can't wait to see what '24 brings!
have a happy new year flygonhg, i starter watching your videos this year, i can’t believe its almost the end!
That little animation at the end was really cool! Nice touch!
Ice types are my favorite type of pokemon. I know their frail and generally weak against most other pokemon types, but they're still my favorite.
Froslass' sacrifice shall never be forgotten
That illustrated fight scene at the end was sweet!
So glad I caught this just as it came out as I love ice pokemon! Snom and Delibird for the win!!
I really did think frosslass was gonna live. Happiness quickly restored once that animation came out. PS this is probably my fave nuzlocke of yours so far. You’ve come a long way. Super stoked for what’s to come!!
the animation at the end of the Leon battle was so cool! certainly made it feel even more intense!
I actually really like Sword/shield. it's a great game for monolockes as you can get many types much earlier than in other games
i never leave comments on your videos, but ive been having a pretty rough day today, and even rewatching (yes, rewatching- this is the third time ive seen this one!) your videos bring a smile to my face. as someone who's favorite type *is* the ice type, that little bit at the beginning never fails to get a laugh out of me... definitely not the only video tho to get me smiling. there are tons of us silent viewers, but i hope you know just how amazing of a content creator you are! your nuzlocking skills are always a wonder to see, and your both your video editing and scripts somehow manage to get better and better. keep up the amazing work, flygon!
You know... for the Kabu battle, you could've just taught Cloyster Hydro Pump via the move reminder...
the only dude making sword/shield actually look fun, well played flygon
finally the swinub appreciation i’ve been waiting for
this is a wonderful and entertaining video! Thank you for all your work and effort.
okay, that animation at the end actually gave me chills. and no, i'm not saying that as a pun, it actually did, LOL
Gotta say that as an artist, it's been amazing to see small animations or commissioned art pieces in your videos!
Ice are my favorite type too! Love Froslass, Dewgong, Glaceon, Cloyster, and Alolan Ninetales
The CSI Miami music bit with the joke was just the icing on the cake for this run.
Wow! I had SO much more trouble against Piers & the dragon guy on my run through of an Ice Nuzlocke! Great job. I still have so much to learn.
I was actually wondering if a mono ice type nuzlocke was even possible in any game so I’m glad this video exists
"Wait, why isn't the ice-type popular? It's a great typing."
"Do you know anyone who's favorite typing is ice?"
"...well no, but-"
AWESOME!!! the art at the end was so cool!!
Always enjoy your videos. Also enjoyed the snap vote. Would love to see a rock type playthrough of Sword or sun/moon
Loved the artwork at the end
Such a fun video, loved the surprise animation at the end
“It seems like you need to chill” damn that was badass
That animation at the end..breathtaking.
I love the naming conventions of this run haha. Well I learned what an Ice Luge is today.. (they look super cool)
Not me calling the swinub number to find “no routes found” I was so ready to hear a flygonhg voice message ab swinub
The throwaway uncircumcised turtle joke killed me.
Happy new year flygon, love the videos 😊
Your pun name choices were absolutely on point!!
My favorite non-legendary Ice type is Weavile, so it was nice seeing him in the bit he appeared
This is my first FlygonHG video, and I’ve been insulted in the first few seconds (ice is my favorite type)
I love it. You had my interest and now you have my intention
Bro, the animation shocked me at the end also its always great to get a FlygonHG video
Happy New Year Dr. Flygon Oneball HG!
Flygon Hg doesn't get enough recognition for his nuzlocles, and his naming conventions
