#pokemonsword #hardcorenuzlocke #darktypesonly - Hry
Yeah, I have no idea why I thought I used protect against Bea that last turn, but hey...
Let me know what runs you want to see going forward!
Also, just got 3ds to work so heeere we go gen 6/7 ;)
I really want a fairy type run because fairy is my favorite type and i prefer hatterene over grimsnarl because i prefer special attackers so i love when hatterene gets blessed because it gets a good nature and grimsnarl gets skrewd by a bad nature
Im jealous of your narrating skills😅. Anyway, you're amazing to be pushing out these videos weekly
The Bug Catcher Challenge: Only Bug Types in Unova, or Kanto.
Dragon only in Pokémon shield
Pokemon sword no damage. Why am i doing this? *I AM EVIL*
"Ample flotation devices" it seems our man here is a man of culture
In the words of a meme, "susser then amogus"
@@bigpoggers6507 XD
"The gym leader turns out to be a dark type trainer that doesnt like dynamaxing...wait a minute". Easily my favorite line
I think an ice type challenge would be really interesting since they’re weak to four different types and only resist itself.
Love your vids btw!
Ice is a glass cannon, or should I say an ice cannon
I love this idea
My first playthrough of shield was a mostly all ice team with the exception of Greedent who was my Starter and a Driftbloom later on. Gen 8 is great for doing mono type teams since so many pokemon are available early.
@@RebelShardCaster Agreed. I recently re-started playing Shield for the first time in a good while and I forgot how much fun it is, and how much the Quality of Life stuff really helps the experience be less "slow" compared to the earlier games. Most of the shortcomings and plot related are visual but eh, I'm having fun.
U confused me
who is in love with his narrator's skill?
Agreed! Thats why i think hes very underrated! A lot of people who do these challenges dont narrate it too well.
He's right up there among the very best in terms of narration, but it's not just his narration that is impressive, he's also an excellent nuzlocker. The number of subs his channel has gotten in such a short amount of time and with just 6 videos is testament to the quality content he creates.
His voice is awespme
Why did I read the last word as "skull"? 💀😭😑😒🙄🙃😬
@@payrysdoscs4903 Cause you are drunk, dude, go to bed
“Hold on a minute, did rookidee just throw?!” 😂😂👌
How has this man not blown up yet?! His commentary trumps practically every other nuzlocker out there in terms of entertainment.
Yeah, flygon hg, small ant and this guy are probably the most fun to watch
Look at the views... he *has* blown up
Umm jaiden(cough) animations
Considering it looks like he started a month ago, this is really good for being so new
Jaiden doesn’t upload regularly. MDB isn’t that bad ether from a Pokémon challenge point of view
As someone who loves the Krookodile line, and was born in Exeter, I love how much of a beast Exeter the Krookodile was in this video ❤️
Just for you! Great!
Here is an odd challenge, what about a grass type only run in gen 6, i would love to see it especially since chespin is almost never used
I would love to see that as well
And you'll be given a free mega Venusaur too
Yea,You are Right
Yeah, it would be great
Why? Grass type is at an inherent disadvantage being weak to or resisted by at least 1 of the gym leaders Pokemon in ALL 8 GYMS, it’s weak to Viola’s team, Grant’s Amaura, Korrina’s Hawlucha, Ramos’s Weepinbell and Jumpluff, Clemont’s Emolga, Olympia’s Sigyliph and Wulfric’s entire team. Grass is resisted by Viola’s team (again), Korrina’s Hawlucha (again), Ramos’s team, Clemont’s Emolga and Magneton, Valerie’s Mawile, Olympia’s Sigyliph (again), And Wulfric’s Abomasnow. Along with being weak to everything on Drasna’s team except for Druddigon (which resists it) being weak to Flannery’s whole team, Resisted by Wikstrom’s whole team except for Probopass, and weak to his Scizor, it’s also weak to Diantha’s Hawlucha, and Aurora, and resisted by her Goodra, and her Gourgeist. It’s super effective against nothing until Olympia’s Slowking, and is strong against Siebold’s whole team, except for Gyarados, which it’s neutral against. Everything else is neutral. Grass type sucks in XY, that’s one of the reasons people don’t use Chespin, it’s not strong enough to counter the overpowering weakness of the Grass type.
Oh yeah, and the only grass type that can learn surf, is only available by using surf, or by getting to a point in the game that surf was required to reach, so, unless you waste a slot with an HM slave, the game becomes impossible. Regardless, my point is proven, using grass types is a bad choice for the game that makes it impossible to beat the game with only ever having grass types.
I receive: a rock Godzilla.
You receive: a dragon that has no legs.
Fairy types : I fear no man, but that thing, ( *looks at Poison types* ) it scares me
Psychic/Fairy types : We don't have such weakness
Dark/Poison types : *So you've chosen death*
Something I realized in the course of my own Sword Hardcore nuzlocke is that stone evolutions are absolutely broken in the early game. There's a move tutor present in every single pokemon center and using it is free, so when I caught a nuzleaf on route 5 (in between milo and nessa), I was able to instantly evolve it and teach it fake out and leaf blade, which made the nessa fight absolutely free. I also was able to sweep other non-boss fights with it, and it was a decent pivot down the line as well. Nessa might be a bit less free with no dynamax but there's really no reason to not use that leaf stone as soon as you find something that you can use it on.
FINALLY someone used Drapion in a Nuzlocke and it was clutch!
Please try Poison types hard-core vs Platinum
Flygonhg used drapion in black 2 with dark types only. Drapion is one of my favourite poison types.
@@kohinoorbanerjee4009 I didn't see his run! I gotta find it now.
Drapion is my favorite overall 😆
@@joshhatchett4361 there are actually 2 videos on it. He failed once, but succeeded in the next video
I had a drapion as one of my aces in my first sword nuzlocke!
Most Nuzlockers use Drapion if able bc its OP as fuck i personally ban it in my runs
Anyone else laugh when he called stunky liverpool?
As an English man I enjoyed the name choices 👏🏻 Names themed after places is a great pick.
except the way he pronounced norwich nOR-wIch i died
@@dizitpix6268 and Derby 😂
@@julyx5886 and the way he spelled glasgow…
love the nottingham representation
Sword and Shield are the feeling when you wear a warm jacket on a hot day in autumn.
Was looking forward to this one! Didn’t disappoint :)
I feel like a X/Y or Sun/Moon nuzlocke would be cool, you very rarely see those games in challenge videos
Agreed
Been saying this the whole time
X/Y is not seen because of how easy it is and most people do nuzlockes on ultra sun/moon instead of regular since at least ultra is a challenge.
Nor-witch 😂👌. Noh-rich, makes total sense, I know...
can't pronounce half the names of towns in the UK, so I suppose I was asking for this lol...
I was looking for this kind of comment being born in Norwich myself haha
Fun fact which made one of my nessa battles MUCH easier: Galarian linoone learns seed bomb.
Yoooo that’s actually good
@@emilysmith2965and it’s helpful since nessa’s drednaw is 4X weak to rock. Save that linoone for drednaw and you’ve got a one-shot at the ready.
The pronunciation of English cities is hilarious hahaha it's class though
sorreeeeey hehe. Not an Englishman, so hard to know from the spelling!
These are always so entertaining, thanks for all the content! :)
I discovered your channel today and binged all your challenges. Your style is great. Good pace and good humor. And your narration is very good. You deserve more subscribers,but im sure you'll get them with time.
The voice sound like a stereotypical movie trailer voice. I can imagine it saying "coming this fall to cinemas near you" so well. And the comedic talent this man has!
haha thank you just the way I talk!
We made him do it on our podcast 🤣
alternate title: playing pokemon sword as piers
Most entertaining person to watch in a long time love your content my man
YES you’re back !!!
Love this type of content and i’ve been missing you :D
GG on this one too, amazing work as always !
thank you! Trying to get these out as fast as I can! :)
These videos are very entertaining, keep up the good work!
the fox for bristol is fitting because i live in bristol and all i see out side at night is foxes
Great video (as always 😏)
I would really like to see a fighting type only challenge, maybe in gen 7...
Great job man, your videos are something I really look forward to.
Finally, someone who knows what wales is🏴
Being glasweigian, I seriously appreciate the glascow nickname joke
Sorry I misspelled it... but thank you for being nice :)
The city Derby is pronounced like Darby :) great job on Gloucester tho aha
This is a good video to watch while hunting for Shinies in these games.
This channel grew so fast keep it up👍
Love his nuzlocks, keep it up 👍
You never fail to deliver a good Nuzlocke 😌😌 and your narrator skillz are amazing as well 😌😌
I’ve been binge watching all of your videos after my friend showed me this channel. I’m addicted
i love u man hahahha ive watched all your nuzlockes like 3 times each.... just waiting for every new video
This Nuzlocke had 9 deaths, which is higher than 7 that he got in his first 5 Nuzlockes...COMBINED!
Also, Moxie is too OP and to have two Pokémon use it is insane.
I love every single one of your videos thanks for you’re content☺️
hey, I'm happy to make them, thanks :)
To this day I am still crying that hitmontop is not spinning on his head
Highly entertaining as always
Sword and shield challenges are so rare , this is really nice to see, keep up the good job man
"I mean like 99% of my viewers are not subscribed am I that bad?" I feel you with this one lol
Just watched your Dragon video, man! Loved it dude! Hit me up on discord or smthn!
One thing I found helpful during my recent Fighting-only Shield Nuzlocke was that they got rid of the penalty for evolving Stone Evolution pokemon right away. The Move relearner gives you the entire learnset they used to miss out on! My Poliwrath enjoyed that buff XD
Your humour is so funneh 😂 i love it!
Do a pokemon challenge in pokemon ORAS
This guy is both amazing at Minecraft, has an amazing voice, is extremely entertaining and makes amazing nuzlocke videos. This guy is great! 10/10 would sub again
I would love to see some nuzlockes in the spinoff games like XD gale of darkness. Keep up the great work again!
Nominate Plymouth and Fell Stinger for mvp of this run.
Love these challenges btw. So entertaining!
the 7 year old leon outfit had me crying
Bro you need to be a professional narrator or a voice over artist or something man. You're way too good at this
Ayy cool to see my boy Crawdaunt named Derby! Live super close so it’s great to see, also shame to see Nottingham go down. Love Pangoro so muuuch!
Stumbled across this channel, absolutely love it, I was just sad to see only couple videos made because I thought Id have a long list of videos to watch and really love the content, looking forward to future videos and the entertaining narrations. Also you naming the pokemon after cities in the UK makes me think youre from there but the accent makes me think otherwise. 🤔
Thank you for the kind words! I upload a new one about every 7 days :) and I'm actually from Sweden oddly enough...
@@antlerboylive very welcome, and looking forward to your next video😊
It’s Glasgow not glascow 👀😂 I love these videos. Looking forward to the next 👍
I was like "Oh he has the isle of armor, he can use Urshifu single strike" Then I realized that he cant use Kubfu anyways
Don't get addicted to another nuzlocke youtuber. Don't get addicted to another nuzlocke youtuber
Aww man
I'm hooked
I love the Galarian variant of Zigzagoon's evolution line. I had an absolutely LEGENDARY encounter where I accidentally ran into a Lv 34 Haunter as soon as I entered the Wild Area in the beginning of the game. Luckily for me, Galarian Zigzagoon is part Normal type. It could only hit me with Curse, and Zigzagoon had Lick. I took it down after many Potions to stave away the Curse. What a powerhouse baby.
I feel physical pain when you spell and pronounce Glasgow as "Glascow" 😭
yeah that was rough...
@@antlerboylive haha not for real tho, I'm just a humble Scotsman! Love the vid
@@dhampirsilver1260 thanks! my ancestry is Scottish, so it pains me as well lol. but thanks :)
"Let's put a smile on that face!"
-Joker
Norwich is "Norrich" as well, I cringe each damn time XD
So nice to see a gen 8 nuzlocke and Amazing that you got Gloucester! Tho I hate to break it to you but Glasgow doesn’t have a C lol
yeah, kinda butchered that one....
Man you gotta get more fans for this, everytime i watch your videos i think to myself, how? You're gonna be big one day keep it up :)
i love the way you present the vids you just got a new sub
Im currently doing a psychic type normal nuzlocke. I've wiped once to kabu's G-max centiskcorch. And my orbeetle named einstein came in clutch multiple times in the gym battles after him. Im at opal now so wish me lukc for the rest 😊
You bought fashion instead of heals and balls? Like a true chad, +1 sub.
you know it B)
I enjoyed every bit of it!
Dude really liked the video and would like to see more sword and shield nuzlockes
Hey man, love the fact you named the Pokémon after English cities, on a note derby is pronounced dar-be lol
Let’s try to get this guy to a million!
Zoroark is my favorite pokemon in general it just looks so cool I'm glad you've used it i was so happy when i heard you say Zoura
Great content homie!
Could you do a Fairy Only Pokémon Sun challenge, where the level cap is the level of the next totem Pokémon.
So will you be playing more 3d games now? I haven't watched any sword and shield game play so I don't know how they are but I hope you'll do something with x or y and the alola region as well
yup, got it working!
Love the nicknames you chose
Being from Bristol getting that instant shout out was quite startling, love it!
I’ll always remember
the mvp that is manchester
“He a dark type trainer that doesn’t like dynamax... wait” great line
A really cool challenge would be a type only challenge in a rom hack. That would be hard but really entertaining to see!
As a british person, i can concur that your british impression is spot on m8! 🤣👌
I'd love to see more Gen 8 Nuzlockes!
Perhaps a Fairy-Type Hardcore Nuzlocke? I don't think I ever see other Tubers use them for a video!
Hey I don’t know if you are going to see this but I have some criticism/advice for when/if you are going to do another gen 8 nuzlocke.
I have seen another youtuber do this and it makes the early game a bit more balanced. You essentially give yourself the possibility to catch every encounter possible in the wild area before the first gym while the gym leader only has 2 Pokemon, to me that seems a bit too easy and unbalanced. But what would make it more balanced and to me also more interesting is that when you arrive at the wild area you have 1 initial encounter and after that you get one encounter in the wild area for every gym you beat. Still a really good video man.
that actually sounds like a really good rule to add! I will certainly do that in future runs! :)
I will be here, again and again, for the good videos
5:33 I see what you did there Antler
It must be said, That was the most Brit'ish accent I have ever heard, and I'm Brit'ish myself
Got to agree with that one, never heard a British accent that British before
THE APOSTROPHE IN BRITISH IS SUPPOSED TO BE A T!
@@Amelia4111 your clearly not bri'ish
@@Amelia4111 I CANT'T DAM SPELL FOR THE LIFE OF ME, so thx
Dude really said bellend lmao
Diamond fire types only hc nuzlocke the ultimate challenge
absolute bellend
love how it goes from fishing imediatly to a dessert
Love these videos 😄
Since ppl 'corrected' you with the eviolite, I'm going to correct you with Stonejourner, it's pronounced stone yerner.
what makes you say that? the name derives from stone and sojourner. i don’t watch the anime, so if that’s how it’s pronounced in the show then i guess that’s that, but it doesn’t make sense for it to be pronounced anything like “stone yerner”
I love your nickname theme for this video
i had done the same nuzlocke but only dark types but i did allow dynamax nice video by the way!
I can feel those 9 deaths. I let’s me understand the difficulty. A difficulty that many hardcore nuzlockes made it look easy.
New fan ! Do USUM with only ice types !
so good well done keep it up
Calling stunky Liverpool was top tier comedy
Love the UK city naming theme! Living in Leeds myself, I'm not mad at Shiftry for repping the North 🧡
Best narrator on planet earth
I really love your videooos and I adore your skills. 😍😍😍 keep it up
that was an epic battle Axl , cause diddn't have tat game but on my laptop I got play Redical red and some the pokemon I have caught
I watch these daily while driving
