The naming convention is probably old run names, as ghost types are technically dead Pokemon
I believe the names come from his fainted ones in particular
No shit sherlock
Onion is breloom
@@LoamSB **Jaiden ruby nuzlocke flashback**
@@angelicaph483 OH NO
Ghost is my flat out favorite type, so it can be hard to pick just one favorite, but I absolutely love Froslass. Dragapult, Mimikyu, Chandelure, Trevenant, and Aegislash joined Froslass as my personal team for my Ghost only run of Sword.
Gengar?
They used a team of 6
I decided against Gengar because it doesn't get enough Poison moves to take advantage of its secondary typing. The couple of types Poison is super effective against were ultimately covered by my other mons, so it wasn't a concern either. And I feel like Gengar gets enough love that I didn't feel guilty leaving it behind.
@@Maria.Annette yeah I wish his secondary typing was of use. But it's still probably my fav. Dragapult treveant and mimikyu are cool.
I 100% agree with everything you just said.
That Pumpkaboo Shadow Sneak Ws in the first gym and last battle were truly poetic
My sadness at you not using Runerigus is immeasurable however it was an amazing run either way.
Same lol
You know how difficult it would be to get that in a nuzlocke?
@@jameskleczek1464 focus sash
@@hotbabez420 or even endure
@@jameskleczek1464 There is a move called Endure y'now?
I have the feeling that all those nicknames are from past pokemon who died in other nuzlockes
you got it
@@antlerboylive I DID IT :O
@@antlerboylive your an awesome youtuber
So onion is jaidens onion right?
@@antlerboylive so u named the ghastly onion because jaiden's breloom died💀
Almost 150k subs already for Miss Unova! This is why Antlerboy is the G.O.A.T love all your content and the commentary is insanely good
I don't know if I'm crazy but his voice sounds like it's from another CZcams channel.. maybe Falcon from Gameranx?
As a hardcore Gen 5er, Chandelure is my favourite ghost type, followed up by Aegislash (because it carried me through a Reborn ghost monorun)
Did a gen 8 mono ghost run that Aegislash carried me through pretty hard last year
Pumpkaboo is amazing with eviolite as stall
It can learn painsplit, leech seed for stall and as offensive capabilities it has its signature move Trick-or-Treat witch gives the opponent the ghost type and it learns foul play which can come in handy against Pokémon with high attack
Mismagius, Dragapult, Aegislash, Decidueye, and Mimikyu are my favorite ghost types!
Chandelure is my favorite
I have a feeling that the name theme was Pokémon that died in previous nuzlockes, the nincada was named coconut which dies in the Flying type in Ultra sun
i was trying so hard to find out the name theme
The nicknames are the first deaths in some of your nuzlockes
My favorite ghost type is probably Mimiku. It’s so cute!
I’ve binged your content AntlerBoy, and I gotta say, you’re easily my favorite nuzlocker. Absolutely hilarious in a fast paced manner while summarizing the gameplay makes for stellar content!
Dude, you win my heart with your comedy. I'm a big fan of censored/edited swear words and that 'Funny enough' joke was one of the best ones I've ever heard.
Just thinking about Gen 2 vs. Slowpoketails in curry, firstly, I almost never do it because it makes me a bit uncomfortable, but more importantly, if you read between the lines a bit, it makes some sense. The Slowpoke in Azalea Town are central to a big part of their culture, so Team Rocket chopping off their tails would be very upsetting to them, especially if they’re available legally elsewhere. Kind of like “well, I know we have tree farms, but I’ma make my cupboard out of a chunk of this super sensitive ecosystem.” I’m not in any hurry to use the tails still, (seriously, Pokémon made me a lot more understanding of vegetarianism and the like) but that’s just a theory…
A SOMEHOW LEGALLY DISTINCT FROM GAME THEORY!
Oh right, also, Dusclops, due to Mystery Dungeon nostalgia. Fighting Rayquaza isn’t a fun prospect for a Machop, and Duskull being able to learn Ice Beam helped a lot. Then, once the team was max leveled, I let them wander, like usual. Eventually, Dair (like Dire, that’s teenage me’s naming conventions for you) wandered alone into an “all the dudes drop from the ceiling” monster house. So Machamp me starts stomping toward the room, but then, just as I get there, Dair just calmly saunters out of the now empty room, damaged but fine. Dusknoir’s still really cool, but Dusclops has that whole “I just swept that ambush room myself” thing on its side.
For the Hop fight after the 5th gym, you could've evolved your yamask into runerigus: it can tank crunches from boltund due to its massive defense and hit both boltund and heatmor for STAB-super effective damage with bulldoze or the like.
Fave ghosty boi is probably gourgeist, lit shiny, cute face, and spooky vibe won me over
Oh hell yeah, a Nuzlocke of my favourite Pokemon type posted on my birthday! 💜 My favourite ghosts are Drifloon, Aegislash, Decidueye and Dragapult.
deciduete is not ghost
@@SuperCloudz it is
Look at its dex
@@SuperCloudz I know it's not a ghost by the textbook definition of the word, but it's still ghost type :p
Happy Birthday!
the naming theme was a tough nut to crack at first but i think Okidoki! gave it away. from what i can tell, its names youve used before, specifically names for pokemon who died during the run
my favorite ghost has to be gengar, i just love its ominous grin! it reminds me of my favorite fairytale character chesire cat♡ dragapult is also dope tho :D
The man is back! I really needed this, thanks for being awesome.
Ghost is similar to the dark type (my favorite type), so it's one that I like as well. My favorite ghosts have to be Phantump, Mimikyu, or Sableye. It's such a good type.
Dragapult is also my favourite ghost type (love the design, fun to use, and, you see, to be the best way to be a parent you gotta y e e t t h e c h I I d e n.) But chandellure is a very close second (purple and black fire is pretty, the anime handles it and its pre evolutions great, and legends arceus has officially emoutionly scared me)
I feel like everyone's favorite ghost type is Mimikyu
I think it's cool
his task to be more popular than pikachu succeded
Yep
Nope not even close
Antler: monaco will be deathfather
Also Antler: monaco is the MVP of the run
my favorite ghost type would either be gengar or mismagius. they both have a cool design and both are very powerful ^^
Ghost type! Such a cool typing dude
indeed :) How you been man?
@@antlerboylive I’ve been great dude, thanks for asking, just got back from a camp, I’m so sore XD, how’ve you been dude?
Challenge runs, with there own narrative. My new favourite thing.
This is actually insane timing, I just finished PLA with only Ghosts a week ago
Favorite ghost is Dusclops by far, I've never known exactly why I like it, but I think it's for the same reason as why Muk is my favorite poison type. (I also don't know the reason for that
Ghost is actually one of my favorite typings, so it is hard for me to pick a favorite. I would say it is a three way tie between Aegislash, Gengar, and Cofagrigus
I’m pretty sure the theme is Pokémon of previous runs that were fainted
I remember Onion was the DP ground type run, Sinner was BW ghost type run, Monaco was SwSh Dark run(?), Rapunzel was SM fairy run, Gemini was ORAS psychic run, Okie Dokie was SwSh dragon run, and Skeleton was the XY ghost run, and Coconut was from the SM electric run
You got it!!!
That was actually really exciting! I've seen a bunch of nuzzlockes, but this one had me cheering! 🙂
The Names Are Dead Pokemon From Old Nuzlockes
My favorite ghost type is dragapult
Also the name theme is previous names from other runs
veery close
Pokemon in previous runs that died
half of my downloads on youtube are your videos. You are so entertaining keep up the good work
Yes at last a ghost type Nuzlocke! I've attempted this before it can get tricky!
When you ask which nuzlocke we would like to see next, im always hyped for randomlockes, those are by far my favorite since they force you to really unexpected teams. Random abilities also make it more fun, and if you are feeling chaotic throw in random moves
As much as I love Aegislash and all the other ghost types marshadow just tops them all easily Also the naming theme Is name is you named your past Pokémon in nuzlockes edit: It may also be all the naming themes Other nuzlockes Also I like most ghost types but Marshadow Is my second favorite Pokémon all the other ghost types are like top 20 my least favorite ghost type is probably Alolan marowak
My favorite Ghost Pokémon ever to exist is Mimikkyu! I’ve always love the idea and design behind Mimikkyu and it’s really good in combat with its disguise ability and fairy typing as well. Other ghost types that I love are also Gengar and Decidyue!
Love your stuff here, Antler, hope to see more
Haven't finished but, 8:00, if you determine that Driftloon is of such great value to the run (it is, being such a good CM baton passer), why would you not switch in litwick on the max flutterby? 1x max flutterby + 1x g-max centiferno does a max of 75% on a high roll, and dynamax turns are up after that. I hear you saying that it won't do much back, but why not pivot through Shedinja on the max flutterby? That way, Litwick takes 50% max on Centiferno on the switch and the dynamax expires immediately after. I guess Litwick still probably dies there, but you had an out to protect Driftloon if it was that important to the integrity of your run, which I believe it was.
Quick edit: To be fair, this entire run was almost invalidated by Aegislash alone, so I get why taking the more aggressive route and hoping for the high roll wasn't a horrible play.
another quick edit: dynamax goes both way. and no rules state "no dynamax" so
Great Work Antlerboy you are amazing!
My favorite is Mimikyu, the little guy is so adorable 🥰
Mimikyu is my fav ghost type. I love the story behind it and I just love it 🥰
Yes finally a sword nuzlocke. I love your channel :)
He did a Sword dark type nuzlock i believe!
@@CroixatoniC I know he does many others. I’m just happy he’s back to my favorite pokémon game
I don't know how realistic this would be but it would be cool if you added a timer so we can see how long these runs take
It would be easy as the game records how long you’ve been playing
i love it so much!!! love your content! and punkaboo deserves an upgrade to it'¿s tier, i was thinking maybe to ubers after this! LOL
The reading the creepy ghost pokedex entries running joke with that voice was so funny, that lampent one made me do a spit take
When will the egglocke come out? Love your vids btw!
this summer! IN 3D!!! no but seriously soon
@@antlerboylive awesome! can't wait!
I do believe that the naming conventian is that of your fainted pokemon in previous runs. Very fitting concept for a bunch of ghost types
An Interesting Challenge I would love to see you try is Black/White with only normal types. 8 total encounters would be really challenging but also super fun to watch. Love your content Antlerboy!
your humor is always on point
been wanting to do this myself as i love ghosts types, but im not that great at keeping my little mons alive :/ super happy to see one of my favorite youtubers do it instead :)
Gotta respect monaco for being such a chad in this run.
Omg. I did this as my own gym leader playthrough but not as a hardcore nuzlocke. Im excited.
I really love haunter, litwicks whole line, dragapult, and hisuian typhlosion. But honestly I love them all. Ghost is by far my favorite typing.
I have no idea why, but I look so forward to every time you post, it makes me so happy. Keep it up my G
Congrats on 150k subs
Fitting that I watched this in October, the month of Halloween
The fact that Gengar lost levitate means Haunter is my man!
Ever since Sabrina's Haunter debuted on the anime, Haunter has been my absolute fav and is a staple in all of my teams, but Pumpkaboo/Gourgeist is quickly becoming a favorite as well because of its dex entries. I would absolutely love to be a ghost-type trainer. I just don't quite know how to build effective ghost-type only teams. I'll learn eventually.
I love chandelure so much. It was my very first shiny pokemon in black/white 2, along with it having timid+ 31 spa evs!
The little Sword/Shield and Pumpkin as the sole survivors. Didn't expect that!
Finally! Someone who likes Dragapult! Dragapult is an amazing Pokémon with incredible speed. I used one on my main team and it almost swept Leons entire team! God, I love Dragapult!
To answer the questions from the beginning. My favorite is Golurk from just how cool it looks.
I actually completed this run on my first play through of Pokémon Shield. Glad to see other people doing so.
Does anyone know if this is real or a bot and if it is real the Telegram name doesn’t work.
Since ghost types are my favorite this is a nice nuzlocke
bro said friends was a good show... I forgive you since your hardcore nuzlocke videos are awsome.
So, fun fact about pokemon base stats, they do not scale linearly. If a base stat was doubled, the actual stat of the pokemon would be less than doubled. What this means is that Gastly having a speed lowering nature doesn't make it comparable to a base 72 pokemon (that would actually Speed-tie Dreadnaw due to the low level), but you have to go as low as a 69 base speed pokemon to match Ghastly's speed due to just how the math works out. Even pokemon with 70 base speed will outspeed Ghastly at level 24 (assuming no EVs for anyone of course).
Big sad you didn't get Golurk who is one of my favorites, but great work on the video. You make it look so easy that I think I can do it.
Him: Catches a galarian yamask
also him: *proceeds to never use it*
I did a ghost monotype run not long ago, and I have to say, Aegislash really surprised me. I'd never used it before, but it turned out to be the MVP of the team. Definitely earned its place at one of my favourites.
Gengar and Dragapult are my go-to ghosts.
I also did this run and it was so much fun!
Ghost types are actually amazing plus Aegislash, Drifblim and Pumpkaboo clutched for me so much.
Plus Dragapult supremacy
Lake of Outrage:
Rotom>>>>>>>>>>Dragapult
Yo! He's naming them after dead Pokémon from previous runs! That's such a good theme!
Legend back pls make more poison type nuzlocke love you
I gasped when I saw you name your Dreepy Zim, I love invader zim SM 19:51
Big fan of ghost Pokémon. I just wish there were more of them in other generations. It can be hard to find enough to make a nuzlocke run viable IMO
Favorite ghost types: sinestea Galarian yamask and phantump then Dhelmise
Ghost types are profoundly disturbing but super cool. Also my favorite ghost type is Sabelye
Gengar is my favourite ghost type. It's the only ghost type to also be poison (my favourite type) and haunter swept Lance for me back before I knew it was a trade evolution
My favorite Ghost is a tie between Misdreavus and Banette but Dragapult is definitely creeping up there (just need to use it more often probably)
My favorite ghost type is definitely the sandyghast line. Such a silly looking pokemon, but with just enough terrifying in the dex entry.
As a huge fan of inanimate object pokemon I love Aeigislash and Polteageist. Golurk is another one of my favorites because I used it in my very first pokemon team
Among the Ghost types - my favorites are Chandelure and Froslass.
They're a combination of deadly and beautiful.
Good old Pumpkaboo, saving the run on the last hurdle
I love pretty much every ghost type, but a few of my tops are Gengar, Haunter, Froslass, Banette, and Sableye
Now this is what makes me keep going! Will surely have a good one of you would release the egg run asap!
PS- Aegislash and Chandelure are broken.
Ghost types are the goat type. My fav is aegislash! Such a fun run
Gengar is my favorite pokemon cause it looks so fun and cool
Ghost is in my top three favorite types. My favorite of them all is Alolan Marowak, but there are plenty of other good ones. Mismagius, Dusknoir, Chandelure, Golurk, Trevenant, Aegislash
I didn't know that shedinja was even a Pokémon since playing gen 6 ORAS. It was a surprise to me when I found out it was a Pokémon because I had a nincada in my party even though I didn't use it and then when my nincada evolved into ninjask I checked my party and then I saw a random Pokémon with 1 hp. It was a surprise for me ☺️.
The og Gengar is the best and my forever favorite. Funny story when I first played the games but I didn’t know about trade evos and got my haunter to lvl 100 and was like wtf 😂
I love how he says weather types for raihan. So true
My favourite ghost type is Ghastly because of nostalgia since I'd always get one from belsprout tower when playing pokemon soulsilver(it was my first pokemon game)
"There are dark types so this will be tough "
Mimikyu: am I a joke to you?
The writing for these videos is genius. “What the fu- nny enough…” 2:58
2:32 you broke one of your own rules by capturing a nincada
For the Shedinja, you yutz.
You: Pumpkaboo is here for a sacrifice
Me after you kill the charizard with him: You were saying(BTW Pumpkaboo in my top 5 favorite pokemon and the fact that you beet the run with him made my day)
Sinister not being able to learn scald is probably the biggest most foul slap in the face about this generation of pokemon.
