    I think streaming the runs is a great idea, but I liked your old style of editing better. I felt like you were able to have more creative moments with editing when you didn’t have to implement stream clips. Do what works best for you, but just wanted to provide some feedback. Keep up the great work and can’t wait to watch some of your streams!

      I second this. I know it’s easier to just clip your stream and upload it here with a voice over; however, if I wanted to watch your stream then I’d watch it there. Your CZcams personality is much more enjoyable than your streaming personality. I don’t have to hear you swearing and covering up every 30 seconds, etc. The vibes were much more mature and professional before.

    With scyzer using one sword dance and hyperbean is a better strategy. If plus six wing attack crits is like missing hyper bean since scyzer has a high crit chace so instead of using Focus energy to prevent It or risking turns with three sword dance you could use substitute

    At this point I am assuming you have killed the Franchiselocke. I do not blame you. Gen 7-9 are extremely difficult to complete with no repeats as you pretty much used up all of your good options and the Gen 7-9 Pokemon are complete trash. LOLZ XD
    I'm surprised you have avoided cussing. If I tried to do a hardcore nuzlocke, I'd probably fail hard and cuss up a storm. I have dropped the F-bomb so many time while playing video games that I'm glad my nieces cannot hear me. :p

    Hot take, the modern Bug type is overlooked. While it's weak to some common types, it makes up for in Sweeping potential and entry hazards. Quiver Dance Volcarona (or if you're like me, Quiver Dance + Compound Eyes + Hurricane Vivillon), and Sticky Web Galvantula are some good examples of this.

  • @Chronoflation
    @Chronoflation Před rokem

    You underestimate a lot of these bugs. Clearly you need to spend a little more time on Gen 1 Solo run CZcams. Most of these bugs can handle the league, albeit with some luck, solo and with just the stat experience that a near minimum battle run would provide, and maybe abuse of the badge boost glitch.
    Still really fun to watch. I'd love to see this challenge made more hardcore. Maybe going infinite rare candy mode to remove wild encounter grinding and forcing minimum battles, to minimize your stat experience, and setting a boss -2 level cap. Also level cap for the league at the first member's level

    I don't think Ninetails was faster. I think the sleep was given priority from the quick attack the turn it fell asleep. That Ninetails is slower than Blaine's Rapidash, so it's the only way your Scyther, especially with stat experience, should ever be slower than Ninetails. Your base speed is way above a Ninetails, I'd think even 0 dv should still have you be faster

      Since he's playing in release order, that's all four Alola titles--infamous for extremely long unskippable cutscenes--back-to-back-to-back-to-back. These are also the most difficult main-series titles of the 3D era (especially USUM), so that's even more time spent in prep.
